PhoenixzAnybody who might have an idea why kubuntu 15.04 is severely freezing up once there is file access? I have it over multiple applications, google chrome (click a download file link and it can take up to 10 minuites before the file requester comes, even a zip file that will save automatically will wait 5 minutes easily) krunner, start typing and FREEZZEE...  2 minutes later its okay and after that it continues running okay..01:59
westyvwPhoenixz: I havent experienced that01:59
westyvwi do have a huge problem with color schemes after an upgrade. Nothing I do will reset it to defualt. And so i cant see folders or file names.02:00
[Relic]westyvw, can't just use one of the other color sets or set the colors in a set?02:34
westyvw[Relic]: no. i need to remove something to fix the colors. If I try and revert to defualt or set a color scheme it doesnt work out02:38
[Relic]so setting color scheme and apply doesn't work it goes back to what you had originally?02:40
westyvwno it changes, but always leaves certain things invisible to me02:40
westyvwfor example look at how the icons appear missing in this snapshot : http://imgur.com/0kr9cQM02:42
westyvwthey are there, but are a color where they blend into the background02:42
westyvwso i try to reset the colors, the themes, etc. and get no where. I would prefer to just delete the files off my home direcotry and have them rebuilt if that was possible02:43
westyvwi added a new user, and their stuff works fine02:43
[Relic]doesn't work to change the icon theme either?02:44
westyvwnope02:46

nso95the first time it booted grub appeared and i opted to boot into windows, now when i reboot i cannot get the grub screen to show up07:38

jubo2nso95: sounds like someone ( Windows8 ) wrote over the grub07:48
nso95jubo2: but i had the option to boot to it originally07:48
jubo2nso95: does it just boot to Windows without asking or does it boot at all?07:48
nso95it boots to windows07:48
jubo2back in the day I had a few lilos that got overwritten by unsocializable Windows07:49
jubo2nso95: you need someone with more indepth knowledge of what to do if grub overwritten07:49
jubo2nso95: there is a path to reinstall grub using the installer usb stick but I don't recall precisely how07:49
nso95ill do some googling i guess07:50
jubo2nso95: I'm guessing looking for "reinstall grub" would be the way to go07:53
=== user is now known as Guest57378
jubo2nso95: and there are more privacy respecting search engines then Googel the monolith07:53
jubo2nso95: I recommend people to use https://ixquick.com07:53
nso95hmm07:53
jubo2does not record searches, does not record IP:s, encrypts all searches etc.07:54
nso95i got it to boot08:03
jubo2nso95: good for you08:08
jubo2how'd you do it08:09
jubo2I guess there is somewhere on the installer image an option to "reinstall grub"08:09
nso95jubo2: i think it was just some boot priority issue08:14
jubo2iianm grub is written to MBR of /dev/sda08:16

PhoenixzAnyone here who has been running the alphas from Kubuntu 15.10?15:56
PhoenixzI'll reinstsall my machine this weekend, 15.04 so far has been worse than the worst kubuntu alpha I'15:56
PhoenixzI'll reinstsall my machine this weekend, 15.04 so far has been worse than the worst kubuntu alpha I've ever had, might as well give 15.10 alpha a try, perhaps will give  better results15:57
PhoenixzAnybody  who has some first experiences with that version?15:57
* genii sticks to his 14.10 for now15:57
=== jubo2 is now known as Suomi
BluesKaj15.10 here works quite well so far with plasma 5.3.115:59
=== Suomi is now known as jubo2
mparilloPhoenixz: The Alpha is not out yet (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WilyWerewolf/ReleaseSchedule), but I am running Wily as I type. I had some freezes yesterday, but I think it might have related to a big update that I only got part of. That said, a fair compromise wouldbe 15.04 plus the backports.15:59
BluesKajPhoenixz, upgrade plasma with the launchpad kubuntu-next ppa16:00
BluesKajPhoenixz, if you're adventurous16:01
Phoenixzmparillo: I'm currently running 15.04 with backports and its beyond horrible.. Laptop lid close doesnt respond, I cannot suspend, booting takes like 10 minutes because I need to restart sddm 20x before I get a login screen, then I need to pray that plasmashell won't crash because I'll need to reboot again.. Screen lock will not show the lock screen, but just the desktop but doesnt respond to mouse or keyboard, and the lockscreen doesn't show till 16:03
Phoenixz10 minutes later, so when that happens, I have to wait 10 minutes.. PHP is highly problmeatic, MySQL crashes tables regularly, shutdown has to be 4second powerbutton, because the shutdown hangs.. I can go on for ages..16:03
PhoenixzBluesKaj: Advernturous? I'm running 15.04, it can't get much worse, honestly16:04

BluesKajPhoenixz, recommend you revert to 14.10 if you can do so without data loss ...plsam 5 isn't ready for prime time on some machines16:25
BluesKajplasma 516:25
PhoenixzBluesKaj: Yeah, I've noticed.. I was just wondering if perhaps 15.10 would already be somewhere that you could say, well, acceptable.. I've ran Kubuntu alphas all the time up until  10 or 11, and always good results16:26
BluesKajyes 15.10 actually runs better here than 15.04 did16:27
BluesKajPhoenixz,^16:29
PhoenixzBluesKaj: Imagine that :D16:29
PhoenixzBluesKaj: This weekend I'll give 15.10 a kick, worst thing that will happen is that I lose a few hours for install and testing, but with all the time lost on 15.04, that won;t be a huge issue16:30
PhoenixzBluesKaj: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/daily-live/current/ is the place to get the install?16:30

Deetsterdoes kubuntu support the use of a wireless scanner?17:42
Deetsteror i suppose a more accurate question would be: does Skanlite support wireless scanners?17:43
BluesKajDeetster, good question , we have an allinone wireless printer , but haven't tried the scanner section yet..17:45
Deetsterit worked when connected via USB but when i switched to wireless connection skanlite stoped picking it up17:47
=== Aerides is now known as Aeon
al8989hello i have a usb wireless network adaptor with a realtek RTL 8187 chipset that keeps randomly disconnecting from the internet any suggestions on how to fix it?19:14
al8989also is there away towke the computer up fromsuspend using the mouse rather than the keyboard?19:17
al8989also is there away to wake the computer up from suspend using the mouse rather than the keyboard?19:18
Walexal8989: depends on the computer, usually the BIOS has the relevant settings.19:52
Walexal8989: as to the random wireless disconnects, radio is unreliable and lots of wifi chipsets are particularly unreliable.19:52
Walexal8989: some random combinations of base station and client adapter work better than others. Try a few.19:53
al8989is there any better wirless chipsetsover another?19:53
BluesKajal8989, most broadcom and atheros chips work very well with  linux , realtek are ok, but their usb dongles aren't stable20:07
geniial8989: Pretty much anything with an Atheros in it works great. Also most Atheros adapters can do host mode which most of the others can't20:14
geniial8989: Atheros themselves do not make devices, but you can use the list at https://wikidevi.com/wiki/Atheros and follow the links under the column "Adapters" to get lists of devices that have a specific chipset in them20:16
BluesKajgenii, like a hot spot ?20:16
geniiBluesKaj: Yep, so you can use things like hostap for instance20:17
genii!info hostap20:17
ubottuPackage hostap does not exist in vivid20:17
genii!info hostapd20:18
ubottuhostapd (source: wpa (2.1-0ubuntu7.1)): user space IEEE 802.11 AP and IEEE 802.1X/WPA/WPA2/EAP Authenticator. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:2.1-0ubuntu7.1 (vivid), package size 449 kB, installed size 1356 kB (Only available for linux-any; kfreebsd-any)20:18

SporkWitchso everything's set correctly in the account and identity settings, yet kmail keeps sending things i hit "move to wastebin" on to the local wastebin instead of gmail trash; any suggestions?20:37
geniiSporkWitch: Have you tried something like this yet https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/474008-KMail-GMail-IMAP-Delete-email-with-the-DEL-key20:41
SporkWitchgenii: hadn't seen that one, that said, running akonadiserver from the command line doesn't open any dialogs, and the accounts window in kmail doesn't have any "configure" or "configure natively" buttons20:43
geniiSporkWitch: Well, was worth a try at least20:43
SporkWitchgenii: never mind, read the rest of it; it's just really outdated20:44
SporkWitchgenii: yes, that is set correctly; kmail's still sending to local folder trash instead of gmail trash20:44
geniiSporkWitch: https://userbase.kde.org/KMail/FAQs_Hints_and_Tips#Store_trash_mails_in_a_special_folder  perhaps?20:47
SporkWitchgenii: that is the current, up-to-date location of the same setting20:47
SporkWitchthink kontact/kmail may have just shit the bed; kontact has decided it's not even going to start now, and kmail doesn't display email folders (though can go into settings and everything still there).  i'll fight with it later, i guess.  here's hoping i don't have to go back to thunderbird (the gmail integration is horrible, ESPECIALLY callendar and contacts)20:49
geniiSporkWitch: Did you do updates and not restart yet?20:51
genii( seen similar behaviour when this was the case)20:51
SporkWitchno20:52
al8989genii: it says -1 for the autosuspendwhen i run thecommnd yougave me20:52
geniial8989: OK. So try the instructions I gave last time but make the -1 into 0 (zero) instead, and then do the sudo update-grub again. Sometimes it needs -1, sometimes it needs zero. Looks like zero in this instance20:54
al8989ok20:54
geniial8989: Actually, first: echo "0" | sudo tee -a  /sys/module/usbcore/parameters/autosuspend20:55
geniial8989: And then wait a bit to see if same behaviour or it fixes it. If it fixes, do the steps I said to make it permanent20:55
geniiForget the -a actually20:56
genii( habit )20:56
al8989genii: too late i already did the steps to make it permanent20:57
al8989it wierd because it will go for several hours before it does it  like sometimes two hours sometimes three hours butit aways at least two hours before it does it20:58
