[04:25] This sony vaio laptop has no internal drive currently, but when i do get one, will i be able to clone what's on the USB flash drive onto the internal and have it be bootable and what not? [04:27] With a little work you can, i would do a fresh install and copy data [04:27] allright. cool. [04:27] I really enjoy kubuntu. it's becoming my favorite linux distro. and this is coming from a die hard mac user [04:28] but after being forced to spend five months with outdate PowerPC machines and software, ressurecting this beat up sony vaio i found in a dumpster and installing kubuntu has been a godsend.

[07:13] good morning === David1977 is now known as Guest35755 [08:57] What is a good channel to discuss and get some help with bash scripting in Kubuntu 14.10 Plasma5 [08:58] VolUTFan: perhaps #plasma [08:59] VolUTFan: Is it just about bash scripting, or specifically scripting for plasma5? [09:01] just plain ol bash scripting. I am writing a sh file for reinstall of packages. I have had to reinstall kubuntu 14.10 plasma5 like 10 times in a row on my box. For some reason the Plasma5 desktop stops responding on fresh install and all I am left with is a blank kicker panel and can only use yakuake in order to manually launch apps. [09:02] sooo, instead of me spending manual time reinstalling apps, figured I would bash the thing [09:02] I found #bash but not sure if that is the best option [09:03] VolUTFan: Then I'd recommend #bash. [09:03] thanks lordie [09:04] anyone else here running plasma5? [09:04] I am [09:04] before I go, I wanted to know if you was experiencing the same thing I am [09:04] At times. [09:04] I've never experienced what you describe [09:04] how about glitchy and slow gui [09:04] I've never seen it either. [09:04] although when I still had lightdm installed, it caused problems [09:05] I installed from scratch [09:05] ditched it, and it's golden [09:05] so lightdm was the root of your problems [09:05] for awhile plasma was crashing, but since the last updates, solid [09:05] having lightdm AND sddm was the problem [09:05] those who have stuck with lightdm are doing OK [09:06] is lightdm also in the installation disk for Plasma5? [09:06] or is that if you upgrade from plasma4 [09:06] I had the next PPA back in 14.04 I believe [09:07] I know what it was -- I used to have everything in /opt [09:07] once that was fully purged, those problems ended [09:07] well I was noticing the developers put the next ppa in the sources.list.d folder now instead of directly in the sources.list file [09:07] VolUTFan: It is probably still on the disk. And else, with an internet connection can easily be installed. [09:08] sorry for the confusion [09:08] no problem [09:08] i checked, and fortunally lightdm is not on my box [09:09] thats good [09:09] thanks guys [09:27] support in here or in #kubuntu-offtopic ? [09:27] identix: here of course [09:28] Hi.. long time debian/ubuntu and variant user but am having major problems with kubuntu 14.04.1 on a gateway netbook regarding the touchpad.. [09:28] never have I had any issues regarding the mouse or touchpad on ANY other systems i've installed it on (including dell netbooks) [09:29] I just can't figure out why on earth it's going haywire [09:30] i'm not too sure how to be more specific regarding this... it's a if the touchpad isn't calibrated? or configured properly. t doesn't move properly nor left/right clicks work correctly [09:31] possibly a mixup with a setting for a wheel that doesn't exist - i'm not sure [09:31] does anybody have any ideas on where I can start or what I am not doing properly? [09:34] identix: do you have driver-manager? [09:34] try alt+f2 and type it in [09:34] if you have it, it will pop up [09:34] or even just type driver [09:37] ok let me check .. [09:37] thanks valorie [09:37] I use my touchpad instead of a mouse, and rely on it to work right [09:38] lately i've been running freebsd locally and bsd or solaris on my servers so it's been a couple years since i've used an xwin environment [09:39] but last time i ran kubuntu (9.04 I think) i never had issues with my touchpad [09:39] does KDE run on freebsd? [09:39] yes but I used xfce [09:39] cool [09:39] use* [09:40] I am setting up a friend's netbook with linux so I'm trying to get him all setup with an easy-to-use OS [09:40] very kind of you to do that [09:40] due to the fact he is a microsoft native [09:40] thank you [09:41] he has too many security issues [09:41] I am tempted to install gentoo, harden the kernel and compile * [09:41] but I want him to be able to learn and also not scare him away from open source [09:42] tell him that we are friendly [09:42] here and on the user list both [09:45] driver-manager is showing me nada [09:45] most definately. [09:45] i am writing scripts to make almost everything seamlessly automated [09:45] such as a fw monitor for iptables etc [09:46] this is the first i've ran KDE in a LONG time [09:46] and this touchpad thing is bothering me a bit [09:46] I just don't understand. it's as if it thinks the pad is a scroll wheel or button [09:46] i think [09:46] hmmm [09:47] maybe it's late and i'm exhausted but I must finish this task.. [09:47] I've not heard anybody else raise the issue [09:48] any movement of the touchpad creates the action a right click would do by default [09:48] i know it's something simple [09:48] i just can't get to the setting/get the setting correct [09:50] I wonder if there is a config file [09:51] it would be in ~/.kde/share/apps or /share/config [09:51] I can't check as I'm now running plasma5 and the configs have moved [09:53] i will look... i have no browser at my disposal except lynx [09:53] so i will consult it shortly .. [09:54] you'll have dolphin, the file manager [09:58] and navigate utilizing the keyboard? [09:58] true [09:58] something simply isn't right [09:59] i'm half tempted to reinstall xwin [09:59] well, one of the first things I always do in a new install is add yakuake [10:00] which pops down a konsole instance with the click of f12 [10:00] but I see your point [10:09] yeah atm i am merely utilizing irssi in console (ctrl + alt + F2) [10:09] more often than not I am using console so xwin is not very common [10:09] I have to have my guis [10:09] but so often the console is quicker and easier [10:10] hehe yeah i use my tablet for graphical stuff [10:10] yes console is more... well..... robust [10:10] * valorie has no tablet, just this laptop [10:10] i see [10:10] and a phone, I guess that counts a bit too [10:10] gui's are good don't get me wrong [10:10] i always have one installed on a personal (non-server) machine [10:11] especially for beginners, or those who don't enjoy the cli [10:11] yep [10:11] or are learning it [10:11] i will jump on some forums via lynx i suppose [10:12] first i may try a couple more things [10:12] for me, I would not enjoy irssi, and I didn't like email in the console either [10:14] ah... that's all i use :) [10:15] granted my mailserver runs on an openbsd machine [10:15] I'm looking at the bug reports, and don't see anything likely [10:15] but for actual mail I utilize a modified ver of squirrel mail (web mail) [10:15] right i may just reinstall xwin [10:15] or somehtinng [10:15] somewhere somethinng went fubar [10:16] irssi FTW [10:16] :) [10:16] !touchpad [10:16] For a comprehensive Synaptics Touchpad guide, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad [10:16] well [10:16] i'll look there first [10:16] I expected nothing; thank you ubottu [10:16] thanks [10:16] ah, I forgot synaptics [10:17] identix: one thing you could try is logging out, and logging into a guest account [10:18] if it works for your guest, then you know some setting got hosed [10:18] but on a new install that is unlikely [10:21] indeed [10:21] thanks valorie [10:21] i will join a client back to freenode and let you know what i learn [10:21] take care [10:22] * valorie will probably be in bed.....2:30am here [10:22] best of luck [10:25] thanks :) [11:06] Good morning folks, has anyone come across an issue of having no printers registered with LibreOffice on Plasma5, even thought the Printers are configured for the rest of the KDE Applications ? [11:06] Just thought I would ask before raising a Bug, maybe I am doing something stupid/ [11:33] Sick_Rimmit: Writer sees shared printer for me [11:33] im on Vivid with Plasma 5 [11:36] soee: Hi, hmm do you have Cups installed ? [11:37] Sick_Rimmit: yes [11:37] Can you connect to CUPS on local 631 ? [11:38] Weird, I can't [11:39] My browsers FF and Chr both see the shared printers, but the rest of my KDE Apps and LibrO [11:39] do not [11:40] Curious as cups-browsed is running [11:41] Ah well, I'm not gonna dig any further for now I understand print-manager has been ported to KF5, and is awaiting release, so I will do some testing once I have it [11:42] :) [11:42] Sick_Rimmit: i can connect on 631 [11:42] CUPS 2.0.2 [11:44] soee: Right.. that's weird then. Your running Kubuntu Tech preview Plasma 5, yes ? [11:44] Yes the Alpha 2 with latest updates [11:45] Hmm let me just check my sources, I think I might have Riddell PPA still active [11:47] soee: what do you have in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/extra-pppas.list [11:49] Sick_Rimmit: i have no such file [11:50] my typo should be extra-ppas.list [11:50] but maybe you have no ppa's setup [11:50] Sick_Rimmit: all i have in this dir is: owncloud-client.list owncloud-client.list.save vivaldi.list webupd8team-ubuntu-java-vivid.list xorg-edgers-ubuntu-ppa-vivid.list xorg-edgers-ubuntu-ppa-vivid.list.save [11:51] OK, cool I think I'll comment that ppa out on my box, and run an update see what happens [11:53] thanks soee [11:54] Sick_Rimmit: np [12:13] Hi folks === Yukkii is now known as Yukkino === oleg is now known as Guest83611 === pvoigt_ is now known as pvoigt === oleg is now known as Guest5016 === mike_ is now known as Guest42525 [16:17] Hi all ;) I have installed a fresh 14.10 kubuntu.
