[05:54] <michael_p> hi i am still having the same issue
[05:54] <michael_p> i ran the systemctl and it still apears
[05:55] <babu_> hi
[05:55] <babu_> can anyone tell me which one is best apt-get or aptitude?
[05:56] <michael_p> babu what version are you on
[05:58] <babu_> hi
[05:59] <babu_> can anyone tell me whish one is best apt-get or aptitude?
[05:59] <michael_p> i just apt-get
[06:01] <babu_> and best opensource firewall?
[06:04] <hateball> !firewall
[06:08] <michael_p> could 219 be refering to video drivers
[06:25] <michael_p> i hope 15:10 dosnt have the same problem
[06:27] <michael_p> should i use my own video drivers
[06:28] <michael_p> or third party
[06:48] <michael_p> i think this room is dead
[06:51] <Tm_T> michael_p: patience is a virtue (:
[07:39] <valorie> michael_p: what do you mean "your own"?
[07:40] <valorie> in general, driver manager will suggest the best drivers for your equipment
[08:15] <lordievader> Good morning.
[08:42] <michael_p> <valorie i mean i have nvidia .run
[08:42] <michael_p> or should i use 3rd party
[08:50] <michael_p> with me sometimes thats not allways the case
[08:51] <michael_p> the only one that works is edgers or my own but thats on a diffrent version
[08:51] <michael_p> with edgers i got no cuda
[09:23] <michael_p> should i downgrade to 14:04
[09:30] <mparillo> If you really hate Plasma 5, or something worked on 14.04 that still does not work now, sure. Otherwise, why make the effort?
[09:31] <michael_p> just the bug
[09:31] <michael_p> and plus if i am going to ise one ogf the drivers i need something to fall back on
[09:34] <michael_p> i ment if the drivers on the new diesktop dont work
[09:46] <mparillo> If the drivers work on 14.04, then sure. But when you say downgrade, what you really mean is save your data, and install. There is no automagic downgrade as far as I know.
[11:58] <mtthw831> whatt up
[11:58] <mtthw831> is anyone up
[11:58] <lordievader> o/
[11:59] <mtthw831> i just installed
[11:59] <mtthw831> what do i do now
[11:59] <lordievader> Use it?
[11:59] <mtthw831> i have done that
[11:59] <mtthw831> next step pls
[11:59] <lordievader> That is it, you install the os. And then you use it.
[12:00] <mtthw831> ok
[12:00] <lordievader> Not sure what you are looking for exactly.
[12:00] <mtthw831> just making sure
[12:00] <mtthw831> updates ?
[12:00] <mtthw831> any special firmware
[12:00] <mtthw831> you know
[12:00] <lordievader> mtthw831: Open a terminal: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[12:01] <mtthw831> ok
[12:01] <mtthw831> thank you
[12:01] <mtthw831> and after
[12:01] <mtthw831> ?
[12:02] <lordievader> After updating? I'm still not sure what you are after...
[12:02] <mtthw831> ill try to be more specific sorry
[12:02] <mtthw831> my internet is kind of slow
[12:03] <mtthw831> but i am staying at a motel right now but i was wondering if it was the driver
[12:04] <lordievader> I rather think it is the motel's wifi. Such things are usually slow as hell.
[12:04] <mtthw831> yea
[12:04] <mtthw831> i thought so too
[12:05] <mtthw831> is there a way i can check if all drivers are up to date
[12:05] <mtthw831> im new at linux
[12:05] <lordievader> If your packages are up to date, the drivers are up to date* (Ubuntu repo's are sometimes a bit behind)
[12:06] <mtthw831> ok
[12:07] <mtthw831> my laptop used to be windows does that make any difference
[12:08] <lordievader> Nope.
[12:09] <mtthw831> alright
[12:09] <mtthw831> how long have you used linux
[12:10] <lordievader> Quite a while.
[12:10] <mtthw831> any tips?
[12:11] <lordievader> On what?
[12:11] <mtthw831> to learn the commands basics
[12:11] <mtthw831> i don't see myself returning to windows
[12:11] <lordievader> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[12:12] <mtthw831> ok thanks
[12:12] <mtthw831> oh should i install any kind of antivirus
[12:12] <lordievader> No need for that ;)
[12:12] <TJ-> mtthw831: "man" is your friend, as in "man <topic or command>" e.g. "man bash" for the BASH shell
[12:12] <mtthw831> ok got it thanks
[12:13] <lordievader> Man is awesome :)
[12:14] <mtthw831> ill check it out

[15:20] <hyper_ch> hi there, my screens are messed up. One screen, during boot up, is detect at a lower resolution and once plasma has started, it gets turned off. In system settings -> display it's not even shown anymore. Any suggestion?
[15:22] <mernilio> If it's an new error it sounds like a hardware failure.
[15:23] <hyper_ch> it's no hardware failure
[15:23] <hyper_ch> right now it's shown... but only at 1024x768 resolution instead of full hd
[15:26] <mernilio> Try to check each monitor and stuff atacked to your computer. Problems with dual monitors can be a bitch to solve on IRC.... :-P
[15:27] <hyper_ch> mernilio: monitors work
[15:27] <hyper_ch> mernilio: kde systemsettings just doesn't want to let me put it to 1920x1080 resolution
[15:28] <mernilio> I also use KDE. No dual screens tho. Maybe you should ask in a KDE-channel?
[15:28] <hyper_ch> awking there also
[15:28] <hyper_ch> s/w/s/
[15:28] <mernilio> oki :-)
[15:39] <hyper_ch> why can't I select 1920x1080 resolution in display settings?
[18:19] <mr-rich> kubuntu 14.04 latest updates - plazma seemds to be eating up tons of memory ... any way to fix?
[18:20] <lordievader> What is tons of memory?
[18:22] <mr-rich> lordievader: 15GB out og 16 GB ...
[18:24] <lordievader> Ow... that is a tad much. What process is eating it exactly?
[18:26] <mr-rich> $ ps -e -o pid,vsz,comm= | sort -n -k 2 | tail -n 3
[18:26] <mr-rich> 31592 2946672 kwin
[18:26] <mr-rich>  4881 3930172 plasma-desktop
[18:26] <mr-rich>  2332 15599288 Xorg
[18:26] <mr-rich> lordievader: ^^^^
[18:27] <lordievader> Kwin.. hmm. Does logging out and logging back in help?
[18:29] <mr-rich> lordievader: I tried running kwin --replace ... didn't work ... I'd rather not have to close all my apps to log out ...
[18:29] <lordievader> What kind of resolution do you have?
[18:32] <mr-rich> lordievader: 1600X1200 ... been running that since 12.04 ... problem started recently. At first it was Firefox and when I closed firefox mem would drop to like 2-4 GB ... but now I'm using Chrome and closing it doesn't make a difference ....
[18:35] <lordievader> mr-rich: No it is kwin hogging the memory. What is the uptime?
[18:46] <Lumby_> Is it expected for kscreen to not be included in kde-plasma-desktop?
[18:47] <mparillo_> Lumby_: If you do not get an answer here, I would try #kubuntu-devel before it starts getting late in Europe.
[18:55] <lordievader> Lumby_: Is it included with the 'plasma-desktop' package?
[20:43] <akasic> hello ppl, i just set my taskar to be covered by windows, is any way to make it appear when i hit the bottom? (like in opensuse)
[20:43] <akasic> thnx
?
[20:46] <akasic> i mean with the mouse, hitting at the bottom, it will show up automatically
[20:46] <akasic> (with windows covering it, not the autohide option)9
[20:54] <akasic> well, a good solution is to set the max size of the specific window to a fem pixels less, and a space for a click is there, than for the help
[20:54] <akasic> few
[20:54] <akasic> thnx for the help cya
