[01:48] <KDG-mac> hey?
[01:54] <vodolet> hello
[04:12] <ugly_cat> I'm trying to create a custom global shortcut that executes a python script, it doesn't seem to work though. I thought it might be because kde doesn't recognize python scripts, so I had a shell script call it but it does the same thing.. It just draws a cross hair and lets me rectangle select, which is weird because that is not at all what the script does.
[04:13] <ugly_cat> I've got it running shell scripts no problem, but for some reason this doesn't work.
[04:13] <ugly_cat> I'm also open to alternative approaches to scripts executing via keyboard shortcuts.
[04:14] <austin6598> is it possible to run system updates from a terminal?
[04:15] <ugly_cat> austin6598: sudo apt-get update and then sudo apt-get install upgrade
[04:16] <ugly_cat> *minus the install bit
[04:17] <austin6598> ok i did it and muon still shows updates available and when i install them it doesnt do anything
[04:17] <austin6598> wait nevermind
[04:18] <austin6598> well i recently just updated to the latest kde
[04:18] <austin6598> https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/ZGjq2PxM/
[04:18] <austin6598> oh i had to apt-get autoremove
[04:42] <KDG-mac> how open dashboard from terminal?
[04:54] <dcv49of> hey, quick question. which version of kubuntu  do you recommend? Lts or latest and what are the differences?
[05:00] <KDG-mac> support
[05:00] <KDG-mac> dcv49of:
[05:01] <KDG-mac> dcv49of: long support vs new apps
[05:03] <dcv49of> do both versions allow upgrading without reinstalling the distro?
[05:03] <KDG-mac> yea ,,, ehh
[05:04] <KDG-mac> some time it does not work but...
[05:05] <KDG-mac> like 50% it work with no problems at all :)
[05:06] <dcv49of> hmm i see, which version do most people choose?
[05:09] <KDG-mac> hmm i think mabye long support so no need or reinstall or bad upgrades..
[05:09] <KDG-mac> so 14.04
[05:11] <dcv49of> i see, ill use lts then :)
[05:12] <dcv49of> thanks for your help, have a great day :) bye
[05:13] <KDG-mac> bye
[05:13] <KDG-mac> some here adv kde4 user?

[05:30] <ugly_cat> KDG-mac: dashboard? Try plasmashell
[05:33] <KDG-mac> does not got plasmashell on KDE4

[06:16] <Roey> lordievader:  hello.  Good lord where do you live such that you wake up only now?
[06:16] <lordievader> Only now? It is rather early here.

[06:36] <cornel> hey guys. I have Kubuntu running on Ubuntu 14.10. It says there is a new version available, if I download and install it through software center, what are the chances that my OS will break?
[06:36] <cornel> I don't trust most linux software centers
[06:41] <hateball> cornel: well if you're worried, run "do-release-upgrade" in a terminal
[06:42] <hateball> that's all the GUI does anyhow
[06:42] <cornel> and that's a safe upgrade?
[06:42] <cornel> the kubuntu I have is still pretty unstable, lots of features in the GUI need work, are new version better looking yet?
[06:42] <cornel> ps, thanks hateball
[06:43] <hateball> cornel: I've upgraded machines since 6.06, and not really had any issues ever, but ymmv as usual
[06:43] <cornel> ymmv?
[06:43] <hateball> your mileage may vary ):
[06:44] <cornel> ok, well, I guess there's only one way to find out :)
[06:44] <hateball> cornel: most notably, in 15.04 it is Plasma 5 instead of KDE 4.x
[10:34] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[12:06] <svend-ev> Good morning
[12:09] <BluesKaj> 'Morning svend-ev
[15:00] <KSX> is there a way to make plasma 5 more transparent?
[16:02] <regedit> hello
[16:03] <Roey> o/
[16:03] <regedit> hey SuperHappyRoey :)
[16:03] <Roey> hey hey regedit :)
[16:03] <Roey> I'm actually gonna head out to walk for a bit
[16:04] <regedit> Roey: enjoy!
[16:06] <regedit> so; isn't the OS supposed to detect if i'm playing a video (both media applications as well as in browser) and prevent locking the screen? this does not seem to be the case here in 15.04
[16:06] <Roey> thank regedit, you too!
[16:06] <regedit> ;)
[16:11] <BluesKaj> regedit, I had to turn the lockscreen off on 15.04 and 15.10 in order to watch videos uninterrupted
[16:12] <regedit> BluesKaj: so this is a known issue? is there a bug i can vote on?
[16:13] <BluesKaj> regedit, dunno for sure
[18:18] <DontEatMarieDeBo> Hi?

[20:50] <soee_> ;]
[20:53] <Durhamhs> How do I update to KDE plasma 5.4 on my Kubuntu 15.04 machine ?
[22:45] <DS-McGuire> Hello all! I have messed up my PPA's. Where can I find a list the default ppa's that come with Kubuntu 15.04?
[23:29] <Roey> HELLO
[23:29] <Roey> hi hi
[23:29] <Roey> lordievader:  hi!
[23:30] <Roey> http://pastebin.com/m4c8ag3Y <-- this is dmesg when I plug my external backup hard drive in.  when I do "mount /dev/sdb /backup", I check /backup and see that nothing was mounted.  YET I get a pop-up notifier from Plasma that lets me open it as a directory.. what do you think could be the issue?
