[00:20] <LordChaos> Hi, anyone running the 15.04 alpha in vbox?
[00:26] <arthurfiggis> (if anyone's a bit confused about what I mean and is running 14.04+, if you click on system settings and an option called diagnostics, it indicates that it sends off error reports automatically and is turned on by default...but if you follow the link it offers to the error reports, you can't actually read any of them)

[01:35] <juacom99> hi, have anyone try to install dotnet40 with winetricks?
[02:33] <juacom99> i did it. For the record i install wine 1.7 from the oficial wine repository
[06:23] <lordievader> Good mornining
[07:43] <martinalex> good morning! I just got myself a bigger problem - i have been moving a bigger video file from my mobile to an external hdd. Out of bad luck there was a loose connection between the hdd and my computer so the moving got interrupted. And now im sitting here with 300MB on the HDD and another 200MB on the mobile of the 600MB video - how to reconstruct at least the remainings?
[07:44] <martinalex> the file i found on the mobile had the externsion .mp4.tmp and i was using dolphin
[07:46] <hateball> That sounds weird, a move shouldnt delete the original file until the copy was completed I'd think...
[07:46] <martinalex> yeah, i thought as well...
[07:47] <martinalex> i just checked, the .tmp file seems not to be connected to the original video
[10:38] <Captain_Haddock> How do I get rid of the Touchpad and Instant Messaging Presence icons from the systray?
[10:40] <valorie> can you right-click on them and remove?
[10:41] <Captain_Haddock> valorie: No such options.
[10:41] <Captain_Haddock> valorie: The system settings pages don't appear to have a disable icon option either.
[10:41] <valorie> right, it would not be there
[10:42] <valorie> how about in the systray settings?
[10:42] <valorie> for KDE4, the cashew
[10:42] <Captain_Haddock> Good question. I don't think I've noticed that. Lemme check
[10:42] <Captain_Haddock> Aha!
[10:42] <valorie> plasma 5, the hamburger thing
[10:43]  * Captain_Haddock shakes valorie's hand. That's the ticket :)
[10:43] <valorie> excellent
[10:43] <valorie> :-)
[10:47] <Captain_Haddock> Next question: Kubuntu does not detect my second monitor. Windows 7 does so fine (on the same PC).
[10:48] <lordievader> Captain_Haddock: Does xrandr list it?
[10:48] <Captain_Haddock> I must note that I have a curious setup here. Both the monitors are VGA and connected to the HDMI and DVI ports using adapters.
[10:48] <Captain_Haddock> lordievader: The System Settings applet does not. Let me check xrandr
[10:49] <Captain_Haddock> lordievader: xrandr does not list the second monitor.
[10:50] <lordievader> Hmm, it's the HDMI screen, ain't it?
[10:50] <Captain_Haddock> lordievader: Yep. The DVI is detected fine. The HDMI is not.
[10:51] <lordievader> Captain_Haddock: Is the VGA connection listed though?
[10:51] <Captain_Haddock> lordievader: "VGA1 connected primary 1280x1024+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 376mm x 301mm"
[10:51] <Captain_Haddock> HDMI1 disconnected
[10:52] <Captain_Haddock> Same for HDMIs 2 and 3 (although there is only one HDMI port)
[10:53] <lordievader> Captain_Haddock: Set a resolution on the HDMI port. The DDC is probably broken in the converter.
[10:55] <Captain_Haddock> lordievader: using xrandr?
[10:55] <lordievader> Captain_Haddock: Yes.
[10:55] <Captain_Haddock> (BTW, the converter works fine under W7)
[10:55] <Captain_Haddock> Lemme see how to do that
[10:55] <lordievader> Captain_Haddock: http://www.linuxjournal.com/content/guerrilla-tactics-force-screen-mode-ubuntu
[11:08] <Captain_Haddock> lordievader: That seems to add new resolutions to monitors that are already detected.
[11:09] <lordievader> Captain_Haddock: It was more about the part that sets an output resolution...
[11:10] <Captain_Haddock> lordievader: I see. That sets the output resolution for the "default" monitor which in my case will probably be the DVI monitor (which is now my primary working monitor).
[11:10] <Captain_Haddock> Don't I need to add the second monitor first somehow? xorg.conf?
[11:10] <lordievader> Captain_Haddock: HDMI*
[11:10] <Captain_Haddock> Ah
[11:10] <lordievader> Captain_Haddock: No everything can be configured through xrandr.
[11:48] <Captain_Haddock> lordievader: Tried twice to set a resolution for HDMI1 and I lost the existing (default DVI) display as well as keyboard functionality. I was able to SSH in fine though.
[11:49] <Captain_Haddock> Is there any way to check if the monitor is actually being detected in the HDMI port?
[11:51] <BluesKaj> Greetings folks
[11:51] <Captain_Haddock> hullo
[11:59] <lordievader> Captain_Haddock: Hmm, perhaps getting a better adapter will solve problems.
[12:00] <Captain_Haddock> lordievader: Works perfectly on Windows though :(
[12:01] <Fritigern> Now that there is a little activity here. i would like to ask what the most common problems are for early adopters of Plasma5.
[12:09] <lordievader> Fritigern: Probably that not everything is implemented, yet.
[12:09] <lordievader> Fritigern: But progress is quite fast ;)
[12:10] <Fritigern> Well, it's new, and KDE4 took some time to get up to steam too. I remember being so annoyed with the fact that i had KDE3 just right for me, and then KDE rolled out. :-)
[12:10] <hateball> Captain_Haddock: xrandr should show if it's connected or not
[12:10] <hateball> oh already answered, meh
[12:10] <Fritigern> But other than that, any incompatibilities? I can;t test in Virstualbox, because that messes up for me big time
[12:10] <Captain_Haddock> hateball: yeah :)
[12:10] <Fritigern> *VirtualBox
[12:11] <Captain_Haddock> hateball: but besides that? I only see the VGA compatible adapter in lshw for example. No mention of the monitor.
[12:13] <hateball> Captain_Haddock: yes that is normal. what GPU chipset are you using?
[12:15] <Captain_Haddock> hateball: onboard Intel HD graphics
[12:20] <Fritigern> This is what happens if i try Plasma5 in VirtualBox. I am showing 15.04 Alpha2, but the exact same thing happens in 14.10 with plasma5. http://postimg.org/image/vi7w9lr1z/full/
[12:20] <Fritigern> It must be noted that it does not matter whether i have hardware acceleration on or off, nor does the amount of Video RAM make a difference
[12:22] <lordievader> Fritigern: That looks like a very broken graphics driver/emulator.
[12:22] <lordievader> Fritigern: Try KVM ;)
[12:29] <Fritigern> I have no idea how to use KVM
[12:51] <BluesKaj> Fritigern, http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/HOWTO
[16:24] <designbybeck> If i was going to do a nice clean install of Kubuntu, which one should I go with?
[16:25] <genii> designbybeck: Your best bet is 14.04, since it's an LTS release
[16:25] <designbybeck> ...I guess that would be the smartest on my work computer genii  ;)
[16:27] <genii> designbybeck: Also, you can upgrade LTS to next LTS directly. If you install 14.10 you'd need to go 14.10->15.04->15.10->16.04
[16:28] <designbybeck> i normally do  a clean install and not an upgrade each time for the learning experience
[16:28] <designbybeck> and to see how the new stuff handles so I can teach/show others
[17:09] <LeeJunFan> Anyone know where the config files for sddm are on 15.04? There's no manpage either. Or is there at least a way to type a username so I don't have to scroll through 7000 users on this nis domain machine?
[17:09] <Captain_Haddock> Audio issues: While logging in, I opened a new terminal using CTRL ALT F5. Now when I play an audio file in KDE, I hear nothing. But if I switch to the F5 terminal, I can hear it. How to fix this?
[17:10] <Captain_Haddock> LeeJunFan: Try using locate?
[17:11] <LeeJunFan> Captain_Haddock: I did a find in /etc but it turned up only configs for systemd / init, etc. Nothing for the actual behavior of sddm.
[17:13] <Captain_Haddock> LeeJunFan: No idea mate. I'd love to help you more, but I don't even know what sddm is :o Presumably a desktop manager?
[17:14] <Captain_Haddock> if there's no man page, then see if there any commands beginning with sddm?
[17:14] <Captain_Haddock> sddm --help should point you someplace.
[17:18] <Captain_Haddock> Is there a command to use to restart the entire audio system in 14.10?
[17:19] <kde64> hi,  i want to connect computer to TV on hdmi. but the sound does not go to Tv. why?
[17:20] <Captain_Haddock> kde64: You might need to set the audio output to HDMI. Check the settings in "System settings" -> "Multimedia"
[17:22] <BluesKaj> kde64, enable your spdif out in alsamixer and turn it up to at least 80%
[17:23] <soee> yup. usualy you have to change output to hdmi in System Settings -> Multimedia
[17:25] <kde64> hmmm ok. i will try them. Thank you
[17:25] <BluesKaj> soee, no need here, if spdif out is enabled then it should send the audio to the graphics hdmi out
[17:48] <Captain_Haddock> Any ideas on my audio issue?
[17:55] <BluesKaj> Captain_Haddock, pastebin your alsamixer settings please
[17:56] <Captain_Haddock> BluesKaj: Thanks. But killing pulseaudio and restarting it appears to have fixed it.
[17:56] <Captain_Haddock> Really weird thing to happen though.
[17:59] <BluesKaj> Captain_Haddock, which audio chip?
[18:00] <Captain_Haddock> BluesKaj: Intel
[18:00] <BluesKaj> Captain_Haddock, ok good , if you have an intel hda audio chip then running sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel will reload the driver after an upgrade, if that's the case then a reboot is needed as well.
[18:02] <Captain_Haddock> BluesKaj: My sound is working fine. It was just playing in the wrong tty.
[18:02] <BluesKaj> it's a known bug , been around for a while and it's too unimportant to get much attention
[18:03] <Captain_Haddock> BluesKaj: I'm not sure I follow. This is a fresh install.
[18:03] <BluesKaj> Captain_Haddock, then you probly upgraded after the install, correct ?
[18:04] <Captain_Haddock> BluesKaj: minor updates to the kernel? Yes.
[18:05] <BluesKaj> ok
[18:06] <Captain_Haddock> The install is only a week old
[18:09] <BluesKaj> well, any upgrades will unload the driver
[18:11] <Prince> hi!
[18:12] <Captain_Haddock> hullo
[18:29] <BluesKaj> Captain_Haddock, if you add this line, ' options snd_hda_intel index=0 ', to the bottom of the /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf file then that should solidify the driver and load it on each boot.
[18:30] <Captain_Haddock> BluesKaj: Thanks. I've noted that down for the next time this happens :)
[18:31] <BluesKaj> I can't think of why none of the devs have bothered with this bug , it's been around for over a yr
[20:56] <vegaonee> Hi guys! Can I install http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.18.5-vivid/ on Kubuntu 14.10?
[20:57] <vegaonee> It says Vivid, but well, I say a guy had it in a 14.10 guide.
[20:57] <vegaonee> I saw*
[20:58] <shadeslayer> You probably could, and it probably would work
[20:58] <shadeslayer> Note the word probably
[20:58] <vegaonee> What is my best bet then?
[20:58] <shadeslayer> vegaonee: why do you need a newer kernel?
[20:58] <vegaonee> My wireless cards just won't work.
[20:58] <shadeslayer> Probably the LTS enablement stack
[20:59] <vegaonee> LTS enablement stack?
[20:59] <shadeslayer> Yeah, kernels and various other things back ported from current dev release to stable releases
[20:59] <shadeslayer> Google for it :)
[21:00] <vegaonee> Hmm, idk. I would prefer to choose one from here: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/
[21:00] <vegaonee> Then I know how to install it, I think.
[21:31] <Azhou> Hi there
[21:33] <Azhou> Anyone here?
[22:42] <diego_> Hello.  I can't set my login screen to use Breeze from Plasma5.
[22:42] <diego_> I have already selected it from Settings > Startup & Shutdown > Login Screen(SDDM),
[22:42] <diego_> but the one that appears is the one that I had before I upgraded to Plasma5.
[22:42] <diego_> Would someone know if this is an error in my computer that I could fix?
[22:42] <diego_> Am I in the right place_
[22:42] <diego_> ?
[22:45] <soee> diego_: you mean lightdm is used ?
[22:45] <diego_>  I wouldn't know that.  Let me check.
[22:45] <soee> if you have sddm installed, type:
[22:46] <soee> #sudo dpkg-reconfigure sddm
[22:46] <soee> than check sddm if it is not already set (probably lightdm is default one)
[22:46] <soee> save changes and reboot
[22:50] <diego_> Oh!  Great.
[22:50] <diego_> And to think that I had waited for a while to change this one.
[22:50] <diego_> I'm on the reboot....
[22:55] <wxl> has display configuration gone missing from system settings in 14.04 or is that just me?
[22:56] <soee> display configuration ?
[22:56] <wxl> soee: you know, where you set resolution and your monitor configuration and what not
[22:58] <soee> uhm,  im not sure, im on vivid and we don't have it,  it was missing also in 14.10 as far as i remember
[22:58] <wxl> soee: is that a feature? :)
[22:58] <diego_> soee: I rebooted and got the cool login screen.
[22:58] <soee> diego_: nice :)
[22:59] <soee> hmm wait, wait, we can setup screens
[22:59] <soee> my fault, there is section called Display and Screen
[23:00] <soee> you can confogure screen there
[23:00] <wxl> not over here
[23:00] <diego_> I'm running 14.10 and I have it in that section.
[23:01] <soee> wxl: type in console: kcmshell4 kcm_kscreen
[23:01] <soee> it would be strange that LTS is missing it
[23:04] <wxl> kscreen wasn't installed
[23:04] <wxl> downloading a fresh 14.04.1 to see what's up with that
[23:08] <wxl> soee: NEVERMIND. user uninstalled kscreen.
[23:09] <soee> :)
