| gazalam | Anyone else have an issue with the update for 15.04 today? My desktop is black after I log in. Nothing is displayed except for the update manager | 01:28 |
| gazalam | if I put the cursor in the top left it still shows the blue glow to get to the task switcher | 01:29 |
| Syco54645 | hello, running the latest beta of kubuntu and having an issue getting my terminal to load my .profile file by default | 01:39 |
| Erthe | Hey folks. Does anyone know of a way to enable global keyboard shortcuts to kmail? | 02:06 |
| drdoom | is there a default way to do desktop sharing (vnc or the like) in kubuntu 14.10? | 02:18 |
| Erthe | KRDC | 02:21 |
| Erthe | Launcher > Applications Tab --> Internet -> Remote Desktop Sharing | 02:21 |
| Erthe | Although, that's the client. | 02:22 |
| drdoom | correct, I don't care about the client. I need a server | 02:23 |
| Erthe | I've used this too: https://www.nomachine.com/download/linux&id=1 | 02:24 |
| Erthe | Free for personal use. | 02:24 |
| drdoom | Erthe: I appreciate that but with NX you then have to have a separate NX client as well | 02:25 |
| drdoom | if I really want to be involved, I could do x2go | 02:25 |
| Erthe | You'll need a client either way drdoom | 02:25 |
| Erthe | VNC is available on Kubuntu | 02:25 |
| drdoom | I believe the default ubuntu has what is effectively a builtin vnc server via a checkbox | 02:25 |
| drdoom | the issue isn't the alternatives. it's trying to make it as simple as possible for a user who knows jack about remote desktop sharing on their end | 02:26 |
| drdoom | assume this user is like a grandmother without any experience | 02:26 |
| Erthe | VNC client is pretty easy to use. | 02:26 |
| Erthe | https://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-install-vnc-server-on-ubuntu-14.04 | 02:27 |
| Erthe | That should point you in the right direction. | 02:27 |
| drdoom | yes, I have used the clients for years. but last time I messed with vnc server on linux, it didn't do as expected. I don't remember all the details | 02:27 |
| Erthe | Configuration of most services under Linux have become much easier to work with in the last few years. | 02:27 |
| Erthe | And that howto should provide you with all you need. | 02:28 |
| drdoom | if I have to get into the box and do it myself, that's ok. I like the standard ubuntu idea of making a vnc server via checkbox immediately active and ready to go outside of configuring the router for port forwarding | 02:28 |
| Erthe | There may be options like that for KDE too, I don't use it. | 02:29 |
| drdoom | I can neither ssh in or vnc/rdp/nx/x2go at the moment. what about things like gotomeeting, have you guys tested that for something quick and simple? | 02:29 |
| Erthe | GoToMeeting uses a Win32 plugin. | 02:29 |
| drdoom | yeah, I'm looking for people with kde experience for exactly this reason. I don't see anything obvious searching around | 02:29 |
| Erthe | But you could Wine it and do it through Pipelight | 02:30 |
| drdoom | doesn't have to be gotomeeting, teamviewer, webex, etc | 02:30 |
| Erthe | Why can't you SSH into the box? | 02:30 |
| drdoom | no port forward | 02:30 |
| Erthe | That's a networking issue in any configuration. | 02:30 |
| drdoom | of course | 02:30 |
| Erthe | You'd have to use a browser-based plugin that can't share data over http | 02:31 |
| Erthe | *can share | 02:31 |
| drdoom | coulda woulda shoulda. the idea is that we have a challenge with a user who knows very little and a need to remote in | 02:31 |
| Erthe | Best case scenario if you have to support it, is do support intervals. | 02:31 |
| Erthe | With Kubuntu you can design the desktop as you see fit. | 02:31 |
| Erthe | You could make it incredibly simple. | 02:32 |
| Erthe | Does your side of the fence have the capability to forward ports by IP? | 02:33 |
| * Erthe has an idea. | 02:34 | |
| drdoom | yes | 02:35 |
| drdoom | reverse listen? | 02:35 |
| drdoom | In any event, thanks for the help Erthe | 02:42 |
| drdoom | maybe I should just play around with vnc server again when I am able to get back to that box | 02:43 |
| Erthe | drdoom: You could setup a script on the opposite end that exports the X display to your location and runs a terminal. | 02:54 |
| Erthe | So you'd end up getting a Konsole window in your X display. | 02:54 |
| Erthe | That's local to the remote box. | 02:54 |
| drdoom | right, but then x server runs without encryption, which needs ssh, etc | 02:55 |
| drdoom | I will eventually be able to get back to that box, but this is more a thought experiment on how to help people in these situations | 02:55 |
| drdoom | :D | 02:55 |
| drdoom | something like join.me or gotomeeting aren't really possible since they don't have linux non-exe plugins, but they would be great for a temporary way in to port forward and setup vnc, etc | 02:56 |
| drdoom | teaching myself more about x forwarding with a vm now, neat stuff | 02:56 |
| Erthe | With respect to gtm or join.me you *can* install the plugin through pipelight | 02:57 |
| Erthe | Well, through wine, and run it with pipelight. | 02:57 |
| drdoom | not familiar with that | 02:57 |
| drdoom | ok, so it wants wine | 02:57 |
| Erthe | pipelight runs silverlight apps in linux browsers | 02:57 |
| drdoom | oh ok | 02:57 |
| Erthe | So if it's a Silverlight app for join.me, it's possible | 02:58 |
| drdoom | are gotomeeting and the like effectively using silverlight? | 02:58 |
| Erthe | Well, I don't know, but if one of them does that's an open route to take. | 02:58 |
| drdoom | I see | 02:58 |
| drdoom | looks like all I really need is to make sure I install openssh-server and port forward along with fail2ban when I'm on location | 02:59 |
| Erthe | Yup. | 02:59 |
| drdoom | then I can either ssh directly or x forward an app I might need | 02:59 |
| Erthe | I want Mumble to get screen sharing. | 02:59 |
| drdoom | I would normally do this but it's my brother I hadn't seen in a long time and he twisted my arm into getting drunk | 02:59 |
| Erthe | That'll solve a lot of issues. | 02:59 |
| drdoom | :D | 02:59 |
| Erthe | Hope you find your solution :D | 03:00 |
| drdoom | thanks for bouncing ideas back to me | 03:00 |
| Erthe | With *nix, if there isn't a solution, create one. And no problem. | 03:01 |
| drdoom | true true. I like the idea of setting up a kde desktop that's what I need it to be universally | 03:03 |
| Erthe | I wish KDE had a cloud service to store all of my desktop settings so, when I reinstall or in the event of a system disaster, I can resync my settings. | 03:04 |
| drdoom | how do we stop showing join and parts in the web irc client? | 03:05 |
| drdoom | probably not a bad idea for the settings although doesn't ubuntu use ubuntu one for stuff like that? | 03:06 |
| drdoom | linux mint has something but I believe it's just a local backup | 03:06 |
| Erthe | I'm kinda thinking something through OpenDesktop.org | 03:06 |
| drdoom | I know some of the programmer types use git and create a "dotfiles" dir for stuff like config files | 03:07 |
| Erthe | So Kubuntu, SuSE, whatever your KDE settings are stored globally. | 03:07 |
| Erthe | *nods* | 03:07 |
| Erthe | I don't want to pay for a private Github repo though, and I'm not sure I want some personal settings browsable by others. | 03:08 |
| drdoom | I didn't realize you had to pay | 03:09 |
| drdoom | I'm sure there's a way to do something like what you want with dropbox and scripts | 03:10 |
| drdoom | but I don't always trust things like dropbox | 03:10 |
| drdoom | depends on your level of paranoia | 03:10 |
| Erthe | Public repos are free on GH | 03:13 |
| Erthe | Google Drive was an idea I had too. | 03:13 |
| Erthe | grive is pretty handy | 03:13 |
| stormchaser3000 | hi | 03:14 |
| stormchaser3000 | does anyone know if installing ublock on rekonq is possible? | 03:14 |
| Erthe | I don't know if Rekonq can make use of the modern FF plugins or not. | 03:17 |
| Erthe | stormchaser3000: Install it in FF and try loading up Rekonq. I doubt it's possible, but ya never know. | 03:17 |
| Erthe | https://userbase.kde.org/Rekonq/FAQs#How_do_I_enable_Adblock.3F | 03:18 |
| Viperisthebest | hello | 03:22 |
| stormchaser3000 | ugh | 03:23 |
| stormchaser3000 | is there a way i can use the rekonq ad block | 03:23 |
| stormchaser3000 | without disableing rekonq from visiting most websites | 03:23 |
| Erthe | stormchaser3000: You're beyond my realm of knowledge, I use Chrome. | 03:24 |
| Erthe | Viperisthebest: Hi. | 03:24 |
| stormchaser3000 | because when i enable rekonq's ad block. rekonq doesn't want to connect to most websites | 03:24 |
| Erthe | Read about how to configured it. | 03:24 |
| Erthe | *configure | 03:25 |
| Viperisthebest | I'm trying to install the latest nvidia driver, it says the pre-install script has failed, and nouveau won't let me install it | 03:26 |
| Viperisthebest | I think I have to add more things to the nouveau blacklist file it created for me | 03:30 |
| Viperisthebest | Do you know anything about nvidia Erthe? | 03:31 |
| Viperisthebest | Erthe does kubuntu come with the latest version of java already installed? | 03:35 |
| drdoom | Erthe: are you familiar with VPSes? | 04:01 |
| drdoom | Erthe: you might be able to run a free vm at one of the sites that has an educational slant (Azure?) and rsync that way | 04:12 |
| Erthe | drdoom: I think I may concoct a web service and propose it's use. | 04:48 |
| Erthe | drdoom: And yes I'm familiar with VPSs. | 04:49 |
| drdoom | Erthe: sounds good | 05:19 |

| s_20 | since baloo is having a field with one of my CPUs, is there a way to see how the indexing (which it is for i assume) has already progressed? | 08:03 |
| s_20 | well after a reboot (for other reasons) baloo seems to be happy again | 08:36 |

| rmrfchik | hi, is there way to install kubuntu from behind proxy? | 14:03 |
| rmrfchik | installer says "no internet" | 14:03 |
| Walex | rmrfchik: the installer is wrong! The Internet still exists... | 14:05 |
| hateball | Well you don't *have* to have a internet connection during the install | 14:05 |
| rmrfchik | this confuses me | 14:05 |
| rmrfchik | ok | 14:05 |
| Walex | rmrfchik: the existince of a proxy does not matter. what matters is that it has an address etc. that can be routed/NATed to the internet | 14:05 |
| hateball | It just makes it easier to grab things like restricted-packages and language packs and such if you are connected during install | 14:06 |
| BluesKaj | rmrfchik, don't choose updates or 3rd party in th einstaller | 14:06 |

| Simonious | so I just dropped a DVD with the new ISO into a machine and it boots up, but then on the quit/try/install screen it hangs forever.. Mouse clicks do nothing. Enter does nothing. Only the Enter while 'quit' is selected does something - it just tosses up the confirmation box, but I don't want to quit, I want to do the install. There are no errors. If I go to a command line and type commands the DVD spins up at least.. W | 22:54 |
| MichaelP | kubuntu 15.04 everytime i start to move mouse up center of screen and to left side. screen starts turning blue. closer to the corner bluer it gets... http://i.imgur.com/IPIBADm.jpg | 23:35 |
