BluesKajhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/SystemdForUpstartUsers /Permanent Switch12:32
soee_BluesKaj: isnt Vivid useing systemd already by default ?12:33
yofelnope12:33
soee_oh i thought it is :)12:33
BluesKajhey soee_ obviously not12:33
yofelsoee_: there's still problems with server applications.12:34
BluesKajthis is a std install12:34
soee_yofel: but it is planed as defautl for Vivid ?12:34
=== soee_ is now known as soee
yofelnot sure, it's being worked on, but might take until 15.1012:35
BluesKajyofel , not a server here12:35
yofelBluesKaj: is sddm even starting? I'm still booting systemd the one single-boot way, which works fine for me12:36
soeeovidiu-florin: maybe file a bug if you have freezing12:36
yofelbut lets see how installing systemd-sysv turns out here..12:37
BluesKajyofel, ystemd the one single-boot way?12:37
yofelI mean I have "init=/lib/systemd/systemd" in my boot options12:37
BluesKajyofel, as do I12:38
yofelyeah, but I haven't installed systemd-sysv yet so upstart is still installed12:38
yofelI'm doing that now, lets see what happens12:38
BluesKajit made no difference here12:42
yofelback12:45
yofelBluesKaj: so, when exactly is it failing? 12:46
yofel@§%&$§("$§12:46
yofelwhy is my xorg.conf gone again >.<12:47
BluesKajyofel, dunno i just check to see if it's on in the terminal , sudo systemd12:47
yofelah heh, that won't work. It only works as PID 112:47
BluesKajoh right12:47
BluesKajso how to check ?12:48
BluesKajsystem monitor or top ?12:49
yofelBluesKaj: try to run "systemctl status" - that's a systemd thing12:51
yofelon upstart that should just fail12:51
BluesKajsystemd shows a user pid and a root pid and the systemctl status http://pastebin.com/b82RN70B12:58
yofellooks fine to me13:01

yofelfun13:08
lordievaderBluesKaj: 'ps -p 1' tells you if you are running systemd.14:04
BluesKajlordievader, thanks, it is running systemd14:07
lordievaderMy old laptop worked fine with 15.04 + systemd. Though that was still using lightdm instead of sddm. Yet to try systemd with my new install.14:09
BluesKajsddm is fine here14:10
BluesKajhmm, we have no pastebinit for the panel altho it's installed15:17
BluesKajno widget that is15:17
BluesKajand the krunner  still has no drop down of previous entries15:18
BluesKajwhich was very handy btw15:19
BluesKajand copy & paste is acting up....again15:24
shadeslayerBluesKaj: Plasma 5?15:40
Quintasanbah15:41
BluesKajshadeslayer, yes plasma 5.2 kubuntu 15.0415:41
shadeslayerBluesKaj: possibly the plasmoid isn't ported15:41
shadeslayerand you installed the KDE4 one?15:41
QuintasanRiddell: Well, I'm your twin apparently now15:41
BluesKajshadeslayer, 15.04 clean install from the daily image15:42
shadeslayerBluesKaj: yeah, but the plasmoid isn't ported maybe?15:42
BluesKajshadeslayer,  how can that be15:43
shadeslayersomeone didn't port it maybe?15:43
shadeslayeridk15:43
BluesKajobviously some plasmoid/packages are still missing, and the it's very annoying not have them available15:49
soeeBluesKaj: have you seen the proposed chnage to calendar to select year ?18:32
soee*in Plasma 518:32
BluesKajcalendar in the clock or ??  soee18:35
soeeno no, the small feature: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s2nTSl4oOvM :)18:36
BluesKajit went too fast for me to understand what he did there18:38
BluesKaji don't need those options anyway so it doesn't really matter much here18:39
soee-.-18:42
ovidiu-florinshouldn't there be a print manager KCM in 14.10 ?19:27
Sputdoes anyone know if explicit support for libindicate is still viable for Qt5 applications to integrate with Ubuntu? otherwise I'll throw that out of quassel19:32
Sputmy understanding is that QSystemTrayIcon should do the same these days19:32
ovidiu-florinmore complaints regarding the WHITE t-shirts from KDE :https://madbob.wordpress.com/2015/02/08/freddo-al-nord/19:50
soeeBluesKaj: ping20:08
BluesKajsoee, pong20:08
soeeBluesKaj: you were waiting for different wallpapers for VD  in Plasma 5 ?20:09
BluesKajsoee, not exactly , I have plenty of wallpapers, but the different VDs used have different wallpapers,but noe if you choose one wallpaper a particular VD it becomes default on all VDs20:11
soeeBluesKaj: yes and it won't change 20:11
soeehttps://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34114320:12
ubottuKDE bug 341143 in Image Wallpaper "Wallpaper on every desktop is gone." [Wishlist,Resolved: wontfix]20:12
BluesKajor wallpaper on every desktop is the same20:12
BluesKajnow that is a pi** off, i don't need activities, just different desktops 20:15
BluesKajnothing complex about wallp[apers ..it's actitvities that's complex20:16
soeewell i think activities will be easier for users20:17
BluesKajnow that's a bummer ...it was one of my favourite setups about KDE and it's gone ...this is not good20:17
soeeand for simple ser there wont be difference20:17
soee*user20:17
BluesKajhow is actitvities easier?20:17
soeehow are the y harder?20:18
soeenow we have nice activities selector20:18
soeewhere you can create and setup new - like V20:18
soee*VD20:18
BluesKajuhmm because i couldn't configure actitvities , but VDs are easy 20:19
soeeBluesKaj: yup, they are broken in Plasma 5.2, but i KDE 4 they worked well20:19
soeei was using them for  long time20:19
soeeanyway i we all like different things and no need to argue here :D just wanted to show you the link so you would know about it20:21
BluesKajsoee, they aren't broken in plasma 5 , it says  the option for different wallpaper for each VD has been removed20:22
soeeBluesKaj: imtalking about Activities - they are broken20:23
soeeVD work well - im using them temporary as a workaround for broken activities20:23
BluesKajok , glad you told me, becaus e I couldn't get activities to work20:23
soeei just wonder if devs plan to remove VD completely 20:24
soeeor just live them as they are20:24
BluesKajperhaps when it's fixed you can show me how to use actitvities :)20:24
BluesKajapparantly activities supports diferent wallpapers for each VD20:25
soeeBluesKaj: a bit old but this is how it will work more or less https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uxaDaXW67Oo20:27
BluesKajwell, all thses changes i find so annoying makes me want to stick with 14.10 and palsma 4 til the devs come to their senses20:47
BluesKajanyway , time to go ... c ya tomorrow20:49
QuintasanRiddell: "As Ian says, we decided to go away from ktron ages ago, please suggest a MR in reviewboard to do so, or convince Jonathan to reply on the one he did :)"22:47
