[01:33] <Abe> THIS POSSIBLE WITH KDE 14.04?? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XdHOJiTkcg0
[01:34] <Abe> answer some of those 253 People pls
[03:35] <trivialzero> test
[04:38] <cloaked1> so I'm running Kubuntu 15.04 (upgraded from 14.10) which totally borked my Linux installation. Finally decided to try and fix it. Did a full fresh install of 15.04 but then KDE just dies after about 2 mins of being up. xsession-errors.log shows "Battery No file queue: suspended or on battery"
[04:39] <cloaked1> Looking through lsof and grep'ing for xsession-error shows something that I missed before. kde4 and kde5 are both running apparently. This doesn't seem right.
[04:39] <cloaked1> I am new to using kde as far as having a deep knowledge to how it works.
[04:41] <cloaked1> can someone confirm that kde4 and 5 should not be running in parallel?
[04:48] <valorie> cloaked1: you are correct
[04:49] <cloaked1> kk
[04:49] <cloaked1> thx...brb
[04:49] <valorie> from a fresh install that should not be happening, for sure
[04:55] <cloaked1> right
[04:55] <cloaked1> so, it was a fresh install but kde would just halt
[04:55] <cloaked1> I was able to ssh into the box and take a look at the xsession-errors file
[04:55] <cloaked1> I kept getting the battery error
[04:56] <cloaked1> doing a search for that error on the Googles sent me to the KDE CI site. I decided to run that installation expecting kde(whatever) to get upgraded.
[04:56] <cloaked1> turns out, that didn't happen
[04:57] <cloaked1> so, what's the best way to uninstall kde4 and go with just the kde5. I suppose I could remove everything kde and then do a fresh install of kde5 from the CI repo.
[07:00] <xz> does kubuntu not have menu displayed on the desktop
[07:00] <xz> i have to move the cursor to the bottom lext corner for it to display menu
[08:42] <lordievader> Good morning.
[08:46] <FOAD> Howdy.
[08:46] <lordievader> Hey FOAD
[08:47] <FOAD> I need to rename a whole bunch of files; they all have slight differences in the filenames which means anything with regexes is not suitable. Do you guys know of a tool that will basically lets me make a list of old and new (desired) filenames and then process them?
[08:47] <FOAD> Hey lordievader.  Thanks again for the help last time. :)
[08:49] <lordievader> FOAD: Write a bash script?
[08:49] <FOAD> :(
[08:50] <lordievader> Well, if the dolphin batch rename doesn't cut it, that is the easiest alternative I'd say.
[08:51] <FOAD> It is, if you're proficient at writing bash scripts.
[08:53] <lordievader> I know of one way of becoming proficient at writing bash scripts...
[08:54] <FOAD> Yes.
[08:54] <FOAD> Well I guess I naïvely assumed I was not the first person ever to have such a task at hand, and that a pre-existing solution would exist.
[08:55] <lordievader> FOAD: What kind of renaming are you looking for anyway?
[08:57] <FOAD> A date (that cannot be extracted from the current filename) needs to be added; various parts (different for each file name) of description need to be added or removed; an index (not deducible from the filename, or current sorting of files) needs to be added.
[08:58] <lordievader> Sounds like you want to edit metadata rather than the filename.
[08:58] <FOAD> No, because the program that I will be using these files with do not understand metadata.
[08:59] <lordievader> Do relialize there is a max length for a filename. You might exceed it with this kind of naming scheme.
[09:01] <FOAD> I won't, thanks. :)
[09:03] <FOAD> Looks like qmv might be for me.
[09:15] <Fritigern> FOAD: Look into Krename
[09:16] <Fritigern> It's quite flexible. It can (amongst many other things) read meta tags and set those as (part of the) filename
[09:24] <FOAD> Thank you. :)
[11:35] <newuser123> hello everyone
[11:36] <lordievader> o/
[11:36] <newuser123> I have a question , is there any small version (like ubuntu , 39mb) of kubuntu , that will download everything after installation, because i have only a 1 gb pendrive
[11:36] <lordievader> !netinstall
[11:37] <lordievader> newuser123: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[11:37] <lordievader> !minimal
[11:37] <lordievader> ubottu: You are not helping...
[11:38] <newuser123> yes but i wanted kubuntu not ubunt
[11:38] <lordievader> newuser123: You can select the Kubuntu desktop during the install.
[11:39] <newuser123> thanks
[12:35] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[13:31] <WildPikachu> is there a right onscreen keyboard to use for kubuntu (wily) for a tablet?
[13:46] <ejay> Hi all. How can I make so new windows and applications open on primary screen not secondary?
[13:54] <lordievader> ejay: Check the window placement algorithm setting and the window snapping.
[14:00] <BluesKaj> hmm, kmix in the sys traydisappeared and won't launch ...again
[14:06] <BluesKaj> kmix launch error: "QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave."
[14:07] <lordievader> That is relatively standard error, never seen it do real harm.
[14:14] <BluesKaj> yeah lordievader, but I use it to set my audio preferences, since i use different settings depending on how I listen to the audio, over the speaker system or wireless headphones
[14:16] <BluesKaj> I can manage with resetting the audio source in VLC tho
[14:16] <lordievader> I was talking about the D-Bus error, not about kmix not running.
[14:17] <BluesKaj> yeah it's obviously not causing a problem other than not launching
[14:19] <BluesKaj> but it's still a pita to me
[14:19] <lordievader> Are you running 5.4.something?
[14:20] <BluesKaj> yes
[14:20] <BluesKaj> 5.4.2
[14:21] <lordievader> Wasn't kmix replaced by something in 5.4?
[14:21] <lordievader> https://dot.kde.org/2015/08/25/kde-ships-plasma-540-feature-release-august
[14:23] <BluesKaj> yeah, the pulse volume ctl in the sys tray replaced kmix  as the default , but I don't use pulse so i replaced it with kmix and it did work for a while.
[14:35] <joed_> hello
[14:35] <joed_> newbie here.
[14:36] <BluesKaj> joed_, hi
[14:36] <joed_> Hi,
[14:37] <lordievader> o/
[14:38] <joed_> Hi somehow my interest for linux and resurfaced with a vengance, and playing around with kubuntu 15.04
[14:38] <lordievader> \o/
[14:40] <BluesKaj> kdeconnect plays nicely with android , but try finding an app on android that works easily with windows...I'm new to the phone devices and still learning
[15:00] <chiaki> is it normal that plasma-desktop/plasma-shell crash everytime and take up to 100% cpu? i never had such issues with the good told kde 3 :(
[15:04] <BluesKaj> chiaki, which OS?
[15:41] <BluesKaj> ok good, kmix is back
[15:43] <lordievader> BluesKaj: How did you fix it?
[15:44] <BluesKaj> I rebooted after a small update/upgrade  :-)
[15:45] <lordievader> Heh, simple fix.
[15:53] <Ab3L> sometimes the easiest and simplest way is the most efficent one
[15:54] <lordievader> Nah, it still included a reboot... I dislike reboots.
[15:57] <BluesKaj> rebooting in a beta release is common practice

[18:55] <ristex1> hello everyone, i need some help with connecting to a wireless router
[18:55] <ristex1> anyone able to halp?
[19:03] <BluesKaj> ristex1,  click on network manager icon in the system tray , click on the arrows on the top left to configure
[19:04] <ristex1> @BluesKa, i dont see any network manager, is there any way for me to start it from the konsole?
[19:05] <BluesKaj> ristex1, are you on 15.04
[19:06] <ristex1> yeah
[19:07] <ristex1> and im kinda a noob at linux so x) been trying for almost 4 hrs to connect with no luck xD
[19:08] <lordievader> ristex1: You can use nmcli, the cli frontend for managing the Network Manager. Though many people find the gui frontend easier..
[19:09] <ristex1> As long as it works i dont care if its easy or hard xD
[19:10] <lordievader> ristex1: Then read the manpage of nmcli.
[19:11] <ristex1> Ok thank you ill give it a try
[19:11] <lordievader> ristex1: Still, [1] is easier ;) http://i.stack.imgur.com/kPzwO.png
[19:11] <ristex1> yeah but i dont see that thing on my screen i might have accidently deleted the tray
[19:12] <ristex1> nor i can start network manager from the "start" button
[19:13] <lordievader> ristex1: Add the systray widget to your task bar ;)
[19:14] <BluesKaj> ristex1, click on the 3 dashes aka hamburger at the right edge of the panel , add widgets, system tray in the search
[19:15] <ristex1> .. wow that was eazy...
[19:16] <ristex1> and i was here struggling for more than 6 hrs to configure it via wpa_suppliment or w.e.
[19:16] <lordievader> :P
[19:16] <lordievader> In Linux there are many ways, but that doesn't mean all of them are easy :P
[19:20] <ristex1> I know well tbh thats the main reason i installed linux
[19:20] <ristex1> :D
[19:22] <ristex1> Thank you guys, greatly appreciated
[19:22] <ristex1> i was gonna go hack mode with cli
[19:22] <ristex1> XD
[19:22] <ristex1> Be right back, restarted needed
[19:23] <statuzz> stop
[19:29] <ristex1> I am back, once again uncessful
[19:29] <ristex1> hue i get disconnected right away when i try to connect
[19:29] <ristex1> no secrets found o.o
[19:59] <svend-ev> Good morning
[20:06] <soee> hiho svend-ev
[21:26] <Jez> mayday
[21:27] <Jez> I'm learning my way around kubuntu. Trying to configure my login screen settings on dual display
[21:27] <Jez> the settings I want should me in monitors.xml
[21:27] <Jez> it's not where I'm expecting it to be. Any help?
[21:27] <soee> what you want to achieve ?
[21:28] <Jez> it's splitting the login screen across both displays
[21:28] <Jez> I want it to only show on my primary
[21:28] <soee> Jez: what Kubuntu version ?
[21:28] <Jez> 15.04
[21:29] <soee> hmm, yes there is Plasma 5.3.2 (if usng backports ppa) and i had this problem
[21:29] <soee> with Plasma 5.4 it is gone for me
[21:29] <soee> Jez: do you have backports enabled ?
[21:29] <Jez> I'
[21:29] <Jez> not sure. I'll look into it
[21:30] <soee> if not first try to upgrade, maybe it will help. If not, wait 1 week for Kubuntu 15.10 releae and upgrade - you will have latets Plasma, framewrorks etc. :)
[21:31] <Jez> <- first day operator. Sorry for the beginners questions
[21:31] <Jez> ok will do
[21:32] <Jez> any idea where the OS is pulling display settings from? Once I'm logged in its all good except for some DPI issues
[21:32] <soee> i'm not sure, you should try asking on #plasma
[21:32] <soee> but maybe tomorrow as it's late tday :)
[21:33] <soee> if i'm not wrong, logins screens shows up on teh screen where cisrsos is
[21:33] <soee> *curor is
[21:33] <Jez> mines just getting started
[21:33] <soee> *cursor
[21:33] <Jez> thanks for the pointers. You've given me something to work on
[21:34] <soee> :-)
[21:34] <soee> adding ppa and ugradeing is simple ;)
[21:35] <Jez> that's what I'm working on. I've literally only just finished installing for the first time so it's all very new to me
[21:36] <soee> yes and upgrading Plasma to 5.3.2 (from backports ppa) is highly recommended
[21:55] <Jez> right on. It's added and updated
[21:56] <Jez> easy when you know how
[22:10] <Jez> soee: all fixed. Thankyou
[22:11] <soee> good to hear :)
[22:24] <Vtec234> Can i list all files that a package installed on the system?
