deffragHi! I am upgrading system from 14.04 to 14.10 and it crossed 75% of the overall upgrade progress when I last checked the screen. But now when I checked it, it is stuck at "Downloading Dropbox ... 3%". It is not continuing the process. Any help?05:36

=== drawkward_away is now known as drawkward
deffrag?06:25
valoriedeffrag: why would an upgrade be "downloading dropbox"?06:44
valoriehow are you doing the upgrade?06:45
valorievia the gui, or in the cli06:46
deffragvalorie: I'm not sure. It completed downloading all the packages and was unpacking and setting up. In between it started downloading flash installer and then dropbox. I'm upgrading via cli -> sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get upgrade, do-release-upgrade06:46
valoriehmmm06:47
valorieso the problem I see with that is "apt-get upgrade" isn't very complete06:47
valoriebut you are already into do-release-upgrade I image06:48
valorieimagine06:48
deffragI also did sudo apt-get dist-upgrade before d-release-upgrade06:48
deffragYes06:48
valorieok06:48
valorieso it never hurts to do `sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade` again06:49
valoriewhich by the way is better imo than the older apt-get versions06:49
deffragOh06:49
deffragLet me try06:50
deffragWell, will this break the system?06:50
valorieand as I recall, that 14.04 > 14.10 upgrade was a bit hairy06:50
deffragTo terminate do-release-upgrade06:50
deffragOkay06:51
valorieand I did that process a few times06:51
valoriebefore everything was ok06:51
valorienow, I had neon installed, so that was a bit of a special case06:51
valoriealso another useful command is `sudo apt install -f`06:52
valoriewhich will fix broken stuff06:52
deffragsudo dpkg --configure -a && sudo apt -f install && sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade06:53
valoriethat will bring whatever you have to the best it can be06:54
valoriethe other problem I had was that sddm didn't like working for me while lightdm and kdm were installed06:55
deffragIt finally continued downloading dropbox06:55
valorieodd06:55
valorieok06:55
valorieplease don't PM, by the way, without asking06:55
valoriemost everything is better in channel06:56
deffragThank you and yes, will keep that in mind. I panicked, sorry06:56

valorieif you have a good backup, you can always just do a fresh install06:57

loloffehello12:14
loloffeAfter rebooting my machine, I log, but the splaashscreen is blocked12:15
loloffei'm on kubuntu 15.0412:16
loloffeHow to know where does the blocking ?12:16
TeLLuSTry login with terminal (Ctrl + Alt + 1)  or with ssh and check in some way..12:19
TeLLuSI got an opengl assert when logging in on plasmashell with gdb trace. Installing 5.3.1 now to see if it helps.12:21
loloffeHi tellus, i can go on tt1, but i don't what i can do12:21
TeLLuSTry checking logfile .xsession-errors12:23
loloffeok tellus i will restart my computer to see that "i'm on live cd" to chat12:25
TeLLuSAlso check if you have any filesystem mount that is not working correctly. mount df -h    That was a problem before anyway.12:25
TeLLuSloloffe: If you are using the same computer you maybe able to monut the filesystem from your live-cd..12:29
loloffeis there a key to know the state of the system during the splashscreen ?12:30
loloffetellus : it's possible ?12:31
TeLLuSloloffe: Key.. it is probably waiting for something to finish.  The question is on what..12:31
owlmanloloffe: I usually disable the splash and quiet mode in /etc/default/grub so that I know what is going on12:33
TeLLuSloloffe: Is it the splashscreen after login or directly after boot?12:34
loloffetellus: after login12:35

ejayguys, is latest plasma from backports "work-ready"?12:48
Jepongim using it right now ejay12:49
Jepongjust do a apt-get dist-upgrade when upgrading12:49
Jepongi learned my lessons just doing apt-get update... plasmashell won't appear12:50
ejayJepong: yeah, same here. problem is that plasma is crashing couple of times everyday, kdeinit is basically not working, transparency is fucked up and Im wondering if I just installed some buggy crap or I effed up something while updateing.12:50
Jeponghaven't experienced any crashes today12:51
Jepongyou installed kubuntu on what laptop/pc? specs?12:51
owlmanloloffe: I'm no expert, but the last line in my sddm.log is [22:50:48.659] (II) DAEMON: Session started12:52
ejayJepong: hp notebook. clear kubuntu 15 installation were painless and everything worked like a charm and then I decided to check latest plasma so I installed it from backports and man - shit is broken.12:52
Jepongdid you update from konsole ejay?12:53
ejayyes. muon never worked and prolly never will. im not touching muon. never. everything from console.12:53
hyper_chwhere are the plasma settings stored so that on my external, primary screen it always shows folder and not plasma thingy wallpaper there12:53

Jepongit removes a few packages and possibly added a few new12:54
ejayJepong: yeah, ok but I know how to update my os. I'm asking if any of you got issues with latest plasma. it's super annoying that after updating to newest version everything just decided to give me a middle finger.12:56

ejayplasma is crashing even when trying to remove files. that's just too much.13:00
owlmanejay: the only instability I have experienced is when I had a large number of task manager items in the panel13:00
ejayowlman: ive got circa ten apps open at once. is it "large number"?13:01
owlmannot sure, for me plasmashell was crashing when I hovered over a grouped task and the ??? pane with previews overflowed the screen13:03
BluesKajHi folks13:03
ejayhi13:03
ejayowlman: in my case it's crashining couple time a day. I'm not even mention that plasma is not booting after login in - I need to destroy cache everytime I'm booting up my laptop.13:04
owlmanejay: beyond my expertise... I've never had problems with the cache13:06
bshahejay: can you run ls -l ~/.cache/ksycoca*13:07
BluesKajejay, which caches are you emptying?13:08

loloffeowlman :  i posted here https://paste.kde.org/p8v3tffgk13:25

=== alket_ is now known as alket
Trel_LaptopBluesKaj: because I like KDM both for the available themes, and the customization available from within KDE16:14
Trel_LaptopFor example, in SDDM how would I make it show a login box rather than listing account16:15
BluesKajTrel_Laptop, then don't use the latest kubuntu , stay with 14.1016:15
Trel_LaptopBluesKaj: that's a terrible solution16:15
Trel_LaptopWas that a joke (I hope)16:15

BluesKaj-*16:20
Trel_LaptopBluesKaj: And example, with LightDM I couldn't turn off listing available accounts on the greeter from any GUI, I only wanted a login box.16:20
DDROh, never mind. If you uncheck settings → colour → options → apply colours to non-kde4 apps, gimp reverts to white-on-black tooltips quite nicely… though I less heavy-handed solution would be nice…16:23

TrelI'm having an issue with color themes in KDE5, no matter which theme I pick, the panel background is bright whiteish, but the text color does change, so I can't read anything17:59
BluesKaj_Trel, the colour theme shouldn't affect the panel at all, the panel theme is configured by the desktop theme in system settings>workspace theme18:06
TrelBluesKaj_ correct, and it doesn't18:06
