[01:57] <nikolaptop> heey
[04:58] <ovrflw0x> should i install plasma 5 kubuntu?
[04:58] <ovrflw0x> is it buggy?
[05:09] <ovrflw0x> where is 14.10 plasma 5 kubuntu torrent?
[05:38] <Blue1> I am having trouble getting the kubuntu desktop to display on a projector -- I get this http://picpaste.com/projector-D1ds7iMg.jpg willpaper only -- it worked correctly with debian squeeze, and also with windows 7 starter -- I tried this on 2 different projectors at 2 different locations.   Does not appear to be a hardware issue.
[07:38] <ahjolinna> hello, does anyone else have problem with kubuntu 15.04 UEFI installation? it seems to install just fine but my ultrabook can't boot into it. I tried beta ISO and yesterday's daily ISO also
[07:41] <valorie> ahjolinna: there was a bug report about that in launchpad
[07:42] <valorie> it will help if you search for that and add your input
[07:43] <ahjolinna> I just hate launchpad, but fine
[07:44] <valorie> thank you for your contribution, ahjolinna
[07:53] <ahjolinna> valorie: I didn't find any bug report that reflects my problem, maybe I have to make a new one...oh sigh
[07:56] <valorie> it is worth the trouble, for sure
[07:57] <valorie> we want a perfect 15.04 rollout if possible
[08:05] <ahjolinna> valorie: I wonder what log files are needed...I haven't used ubuntu based distro in years, feels weird...I have been using chakraOS (arch'ish based) for 3 years now , but I got kicked out from the team -_-
[08:07] <valorie> well, the easiest way to file is to use `ubuntu-bug package`from the cli
[09:21] <lordievader> Good morning.
[10:20] <hoelk> The hardware mouse buttons of my thinkpad map to the wrong click events, any idea how i can reassign them?
[10:31] <v3nd3tta``> darn i cant wait for 15.04 until 23.04...
[10:34] <v3nd3tta``> i'm gonna have a taste with virtualbox ;)
[10:54] <v3nd3tta``> mh, installer - disk setup - i think kubuntu will use more than "1.0 B" x)
[11:00] <abraham> hmm..
[13:37] <BluesKaj> Hey folks
[14:19] <azack> Hey
[14:19] <azack> How come there is no torrent for kubuntu
[14:19] <azack> every other distro can be downloaded via torrent
[14:19] <azack> I am trying to get Kubuntu 14.10 64, but no torrent
[14:19] <Pici> !torrents
[14:21] <azack> That dir is empty
[14:21] <azack> wait not it's not
[14:21] <azack> I am stupid
[14:21] <azack> Does that one use Plasma 4 or 5 though?
[14:22] <soee> Utopic uses KDE 4
[14:22] <soee> Vivid Beta 2 uses Plasma 5
[14:22] <azack> but which plasma?
[14:22] <azack> Oh
[14:23] <azack> I only see beta 1
[14:23] <azack> Is there a torrent for beta 2 ?
[14:23] <azack> http://torrent.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/vivid/beta-1/desktop/
[14:24] <soee> azack: yes sorry, there is only Beta 1 :)
[14:25] <azack> THanks
[14:25] <azack> I will download vivid beta 1
[14:25] <soee> sure, its pretty stable and nice :)
[14:25] <azack> I am on ElementaryOS atm
[14:25] <azack> It's a nightmare
[14:25] <azack> I do not recommend is just yet
[14:25] <soee> oh i heard a lot of good words about it
[14:26] <soee> anyway ots not for me - im KDE and Plasma lover :)
[14:26] <azack> Icons missing
[14:26] <azack> faulty fonts
[14:26] <azack> Broken settings
[14:34] <joan> how can I troubleshoot bluetooth? I'm on kubuntu 14.10 (3.16.0-31-generic #43-Ubuntu SMP Tue Mar 10), bluetooth is running, lsusb yields this: ID 0a12:0001 Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd Bluetooth Dongle (HCI mode), but when I try to start bluetooth services (bluedevil, o transfer files service), the PC says "protocol dead unexpectedly
[14:34] <joan> To be more specific: can I try any bluetooth thing on the terminal, independently from KDE stuff?
[15:27] <joan> how can I turn on bluetooth at the task bar?
[16:04] <Walex2> joan: the KDE Blutooth frontend is one of many, and there is indeed a set of command line tools to troubleshoot
[16:04] <Walex2> joan: the ones you want to start with are 'hciconfig' and 'hcitool'
[16:06] <joan> yes, I've triedthem, but the problem seems to affect the dongle:  ID 0a12:0001 Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd Bluetooth Dongle (HCI mode)
[16:09] <joan> Walex2, indeed, I upgraded from 14.04 to 14.10 because it was apparently a kernel problem, but upgrading didn't solve the problem. And it *did* work... argh
[16:12] <Walex2> joan: in all these cases of occasional incompatibibility the best solution by far is to get another one.
[16:13] <Walex2> joan: sometimes, whether it is BT or WiFi or fancy mice etc. one has to try 2-3 before finding one without bugs or compatiblity issues.
[16:13] <joan> on the other hand, if I turn off bluetooth from the taskbar, there's no human way to turn it off, I have to hciconfig hciX reset in order to get the bluetooth icon again
[16:14] <Walex2> joan: that's indeed strange. Maybe the dongle's fimware is just buggy. Most USB sticks of any type have buggy firmware. USB firmware gets written by the lowest bidder in Taiwan...
[16:15] <joan> Walex2, yeah, but it worked like a charm after some kernel upgrade...
[16:16] <joan> Walex2, after -> *before*
[16:17] <Walex2> joan: sometimes things work randonly too.
[16:18] <joan> Walex2, yeah, that's the annoying thing, :(
[17:47] <nicofrand> hi
[17:50] <nicofrand> while doing apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade the update is stuck at "Found memtest86+ image: /boot/memtest86+.bin" (see: http://pastebin.com/BUNd2t5F). Does anyone has an idea on how to resolve this ? I am afraid to shutdown/reboot my computer
[18:45] <Bronze> Is kubuntu still being actively supported?

[19:07] <afteoyo_> I am trying to install Kubuntu 14.10 Plasma 5
[19:07] <afteoyo_> When I boot from my live usb I get this http://i.imgur.com/cWSj4Ih.png
[19:08] <afteoyo_> I tried startx but that didn't works
[19:08] <BluesKaj> afteoyo_, which method are you using?
[19:08] <afteoyo_> What do you mean by method?
[19:09] <afteoyo_> I am booting from a USB
[19:09] <afteoyo_> defualt method
[19:09] <afteoyo_> there is no compatibility method
[19:11] <afteoyo_> !PLEH
[19:12] <BluesKaj> afteoyo_, which image did you choose for the usb ?
[19:12] <afteoyo_> Kubuntu 14.10 Plasma 5 64bit
[19:12] <BluesKaj> and how did you install it on th eusb?
[19:13] <BluesKaj> usb rather
[19:13] <afteoyo_> Universal USB installer
[19:13] <afteoyo_> A programm for windows
[19:13] <BluesKaj> best to use dd
[19:13] <afteoyo_> ?
[19:14] <BluesKaj> on 14.10
[19:14] <afteoyo_> I am on Win7 atm shoudl I boot into my elementaryOS partition?
[19:14] <BluesKaj> so you don't have 14.10 installed at all yet
[19:14] <afteoyo_> so I can dd it?
[19:15] <afteoyo_> I do not like elementary OS
[19:16] <BluesKaj> does elemntary have disk creator ?
[19:17] <BluesKaj> never mind dd for now
[19:17] <afteoyo_> Okay I will try 15.04 Plasma 5 first, if that fails I will resort to the dd
[19:24] <aftereyo> BluesKaj, 15.04 Gave me the same error
[19:24] <aftereyo> I will try thy the dd method
[19:25] <BluesKaj> do you have infop about how to use dd?
[19:25] <aftereyo> I have the man pages :D
[19:25] <BluesKaj> info
[19:25] <BluesKaj> ok
[19:25] <aftereyo> And as usual I only need about 1% of the man pages info
[19:26] <aftereyo> Wow, that is a lot of information
[19:28] <BluesKaj> a suggestion, dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/dev/usb/kubuntu.iso bs=1M
[19:29] <aftereyo> I am following this guide http://askubuntu.com/a/376430
[19:29] <BluesKaj>  /dev/cdrom is the source in this example it, probly in your Downloads file
[19:30] <BluesKaj> ok if you wish
[19:31] <aftereyo> I just don't want to burden you already, :D I am sure I will desire your help at a later point
[19:38] <aftereyo> Hmm
[19:38] <aftereyo> my usb drive is not mounted at /media
[19:39] <joan> Oh come on, I had to fool my Xiaomi Redmi Smartphone to accept .epub files from kubuntu 14.10
[19:39] <joan> transfer them as pdf and then rename
[19:41] <aftereyo> Where would my usb be mounted BluesKaj ?
[19:43] <aftereyo> do I want to mount to sdb or sdb1?
[19:44] <bprompt> joan:   over usb-storage transfer?
[19:45] <aftereyo> going with sdb
[19:45] <aftereyo> command is running?
[19:45] <aftereyo> Am I not supposed to see any output?
[19:49] <BluesKaj> aftereyo,  from which command?
[19:50] <aftereyo> dd
[19:50] <aftereyo> sudo dd if=/dev/sdb of=kubuntu-15.04-beta1-desktop-amd64.iso bs=1M
[19:53] <bprompt> ?
[19:54] <BluesKaj> aftereyo, that command should take only about 10 mins or less to finish
[19:55] <aftereyo> It just finished
[19:55] <aftereyo> How can I verifiy it worked correctly?
[19:58] <bprompt> aftereyo:    you could always try to mount it, with -> mount -o loop YOURFILE.iso  /mnt  <--- then "cd" to it and check it about
[19:58] <aftereyo> Okay, I will boot into it
[19:58] <aftereyo> 15.04, risky frisky
[19:58] <aftereyo> plasma 5 risky ^ 2
[19:59] <bprompt> aftereyo:    what are you doing anway?    burning an .iso to a usb stick?
[19:59] <aftereyo> Making a boot able usb
[19:59] <bprompt> sudo dd if=/dev/sdb of=kubuntu-15.04-beta1-desktop-amd64.iso bs=1M   <--- looks more like  you're dumping a usb stick into an .iso, which is not really the same thing
[20:01] <aftereyo> OMG
[20:01] <aftereyo> what did I do?
[20:01] <aftereyo> mayor@oxen:~/Downloads$ sudo dd if=/dev/sdb of=kubuntu-15.04-beta1-desktop-amd64.iso bs=1M

[20:03] <aftereyo> Yep, the iso file is now 16gb,
[20:03] <aftereyo> which was the size of the usb driver
[20:03] <bprompt> 16gbs of "blank" pretty much, since "dd" transfers cluster by cluster, regardless of content size
[20:04] <aftereyo> Yeah, Now I have to re download the torrent
[20:04] <aftereyo> thanks for pointing that out
[20:04] <bprompt> hmmm
[20:04] <bprompt> you didn't use a copy of it?   tsk tsk tsk
[20:04] <aftereyo> I wasn't expecting for this

[20:07] <aftereyo> I will keep that in mind bprompt
[20:07] <BluesKaj> ok back, got a memory leak in 15.04, after the latest kernel version upgrade
[20:08] <BluesKaj> RAM was maxed out

[20:08]  * bprompt ducks
[20:09] <aftereyo> BluesKaj, did you hear?
[20:09] <aftereyo> I copied the USB drive into the ISO instead
[20:09] <aftereyo> so back to square one
[20:09] <aftereyo> Is this a sign I am not ready 15.04 plasma 5?
[20:09] <aftereyo> Someone tell me I am in way over my head

[20:10] <aftereyo> bprompt, you recite many wise things, but none of them are yours ;)
[20:11] <bprompt> well, the steven seagal one, was sorta, not really, it was in the movie :P
[20:11] <bprompt> aftereyo: We should be careful to get out of an experience only the wisdom that is in it - and stop there; lest we be like the cat that sits down on a hot stove-lid.

[20:11] <bprompt> heheehe
[20:12] <bprompt> aftereyo:   to err, is to learn, just get it again, make a copy, use that, and redo the "dd" :)
[20:12] <BluesKaj> aftereyo, no you just need to make sure to copy just the image/iso file to the usb stick
[20:13] <aftereyo> "Trust, but verify."  ~~ Ronald Reagan ~~
[20:13] <BluesKaj> bprompt, your example is a helluva way to learn:)
[20:13] <aftereyo> I should have double checked your sample command BluesKaj
[20:13] <bprompt> aftereyo:     the redownload may take .... say  dunno 2hrs... so.... hey! remember you wanted to watch "The English Patient" again?   well, just go get some popcorn, when he gets out of the desert, the torrent will be done =)
[20:14] <bprompt> BluesKaj:  =)
[20:14] <BluesKaj> not my style
[20:14] <aftereyo> I am not familiar with the show
[20:14] <bprompt> aftereyo:   ok.. "Forrest Gump" then
[20:14] <aftereyo> Oh I see bprompt you are saying I shouldn't jsut give up.
[20:15] <bprompt> aftereyo:   We should be careful to get out of an experience only the wisdom that is in it - and stop there; lest we be like the cat that sits down on a hot stove-lid.

[20:15] <aftereyo> bprompt, seen it once already
[20:15] <aftereyo> I want to wait before I see it again
[20:15] <aftereyo> so I can enjoy it in all of its beauty again
[20:17] <aftereyo> bprompt, are you in the US?
 "Trust, but verify."  ~~ Ronald Reagan ~~     <---- sounds like " I love you honey, now if you just sign this prenuptial agreement"
[20:19] <aftereyo> That's a far stretch
[20:20] <bprompt> yes, us west coast =)
[20:21] <aftereyo> Cool
[20:21] <aftereyo> I want to move to the west coast one day
[20:21] <aftereyo> I am sick of the East coast
[20:23] <aftereyo> 20 minutes on the download
[20:24] <aftereyo> would 15.04 P5 be more stable than 14.10 P5?
[20:25] <bprompt> let's see... we're in 03-15....  and this is 15.04   hmmm, wild guessing... I'd think not, then again, that's the norm
[20:28] <aftereyo> I really just want P5 on an ubuntu based distro
[20:28] <aftereyo> Even debian based would be fine
[20:29] <BluesKaj> ubuntu is debian based
[20:29] <aftereyo> I know
[20:31] <aftereyo> If I want P5 couldn't I just use Linux Mint 17.1 and install plasma5? on that
[20:33] <BluesKaj> maybe, dunno much about mint
[20:34] <OerHeks> Mint is slower.
[20:34] <aftereyo> nope,  I cannot
[20:35] <aftereyo> OerHeks, why do you think that?
[20:35] <BluesKaj> if you have kde on mint it might be
[20:38] <aftereyo> I think I will install Kubuntu 14.10 P4 and then upgrade to P%
[20:38] <BluesKaj> aftereyo, https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=289&t=122157
[20:40] <aftereyo> Oh boy
[20:40] <aftereyo> I think I must wait
[20:40] <aftereyo> P5 is not stable enough yet
[20:42] <BluesKaj> done for the day here...later
[20:45] <aftereyo> bye
[20:48] <bprompt> aftereyo:    bear in  mind that 15.04   stands for "20"15   and 04"th month of the year", we're in march, or the 3rd one, thus
[20:52] <joan> bprompt, bluetooth transfer
[20:53] <joan> bprompt, there must be any file blocking feature activated
[20:54] <bprompt> joan:   on the phone, maybe..... iirc    the bluetooth doesn't concern with any file extensions or types
[20:55] <joan> bprompt, yes, that's my guess too, I'll have to investigate it, but I *hate* this gadgets, argh!
[22:42] <vbgunz> anyone know why I changed out my gtx 570 to a 960 and the 960 refuses to use the nvidia binary driver? I open driver manager and nothing shows up in there? I removed everything nvidia and reinstalled but I just can't use the driver. anyone know why?
[22:49] <Kaliraa> vbgunz: Did you install the proprietary driver from Nvidia's website, or from Muon?
[22:49] <vbgunz> from the terminal
[22:49] <vbgunz> pretty much install nvidia 331
[22:49] <Kaliraa> I mean
[22:49] <Kaliraa> From the Ubuntu repos, though, right?
[22:49] <vbgunz> yeah
[22:49] <soee> vbgunz: what Kubuntu version, are you using 2 gpus or one
[22:50] <vbgunz> 14.10, 1 gpu
[22:50] <vbgunz> hmm, when I open the driver manager nothing pops up in there, that's gotta be broken right?
[22:52] <soee> vbgunz: shoudl work in 14.10
[22:53] <vbgunz> yeah, sucks, I'm gonna test a usb stick of plasma 5
[23:03] <valorie> oh my, the next ppa is deprecated - we should never tell people to use it
