| westy | is there an equalizer for kubuntu? | 00:29 |
|---|---|---|
| westy | also why is the phonon backend package qt4 when qt5 seems available? | 00:31 |
| cmrderek | question, is ffmpeg 2.6 and avidemux 2.6.10 available in the latest release? | 00:35 |
| westy | ffmpeg is 2.7 but avidemux is 2.5 | 00:37 |
| cmrderek | thanks, westy. glad kubuntu is back to ffmpeg. on 14.04 now and about to reload. | 00:39 |
| westy | so no ideas on how to get a system wide equalizer on kubuntu? | 01:17 |
| Pinkamena_D | when installing kubuntu-desktop, all new users start with gwenview as the default file manager, which does not even make sense because it is seemingly for viewing images and other files don't show up by default. | 01:58 |
| Pinkamena_D | How can I switch the default file manager for all new users so that they use dolphin or nautilus by default instead of gwenview? | 01:59 |
| viviennea | i dont like gwenview | 01:59 |
| Pinkamena_D | (dolphin and nautilus can be launched fine from terminal) | 02:01 |

| ni291187 | hello there. | 08:18 |
| ni291187 | I need some help. | 08:18 |
| === neon is now known as Guest2463 | ||
| ni291187 | http://i.imgur.com/qPHquJo.png | 08:22 |
| ni291187 | as you can see I installed kubuntu twice. | 08:22 |
| ni291187 | first was sda9 which stopped booting up due to some bug. | 08:23 |
| ni291187 | new is sda8 but whenever I try to open sda9 in dolphin, it opens the same sda8. | 08:24 |
| ni291187 | sda8 is working fine. | 08:24 |
| ni291187 | any help. I need to access sda9. | 08:24 |
| ni291187 | ? | 08:25 |
| Smurphy | Amazing. Up/Down won't work in kmail list window anymore ... | 08:38 |
| yossarianuk | ni291187: large windows partition ... | 09:18 |
| yossarianuk | you could manually mount ? | 09:18 |
| lordievader | yossarianuk: seems he is offline... | 09:19 |
| lordievader | Anyhow sda9 was mounted to / before sda8. Hence dolphin goes to / and he sees sda8. | 09:20 |
| yossarianuk | lordievader: ok, was going to suggest to add a label to be honest... | 09:23 |
| yossarianuk | he seemed to be wasting 200GB+ on windows..... | 09:23 |
| lordievader | You don't know what he is using it for. Calling it a waste without proper information is a bit... strange. | 09:24 |
| yossarianuk | lordievader: t'was a joke... | 09:30 |
| lordievader | That was hard to tell with only text... | 09:30 |

| amichair | after upgrade to 15.10 I have a package kept back (libqgpgme1) - is this a bug in the upgrade or something wrong with my system? | 09:43 |
| lordievader | amichair: That ain't libgpgme11? | 09:45 |
| amichair | lordievader: libqgpgme1 | 09:46 |
| lordievader | On launchpad I can only find libgpgme11, perhaps that has to do with it? | 09:46 |
| amichair | that's what apt-get dist-upgrade says | 09:46 |
| amichair | lordievader: I wouldn't know :-) | 09:51 |
| lordievader | amichair: What is the output of 'apt-cache policy libgpgme1 libgpgme11'? | 09:52 |
| amichair | lordievader: How strange... "Unable to locate package libgpgme1" | 09:53 |
| lordievader | Are you sure it is libgpgme1 and not libgpgme11? | 09:53 |
| amichair | The following packages have been kept back: | 09:55 |
| amichair | libqgpgme1 | 09:55 |
| amichair | 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded. | 09:55 |
| amichair | both copy & pasted from apt output | 09:55 |
| amichair | will be back soon... | 09:56 |
| lordievader | Hmm, i'd remove it and install libgpgme11 | 09:56 |
| jubo2 | Good morning from irssi running in tty #2 | 10:31 |
| jubo2 | Mi Kubuntu is blasted | 10:31 |
| jubo2 | Help mi mon | 10:31 |
| jubo2 | I've found a weird bug | 10:31 |
| jubo2 | trying to choose "failsafe" instead of "plasma" just leads back to the login screen after the machine thinks for a second | 10:32 |
| jubo2 | I get bad feeling about this "Oh you've just entered your credentials but for some strange reason that did not lead to a login" from way way back in time | 10:33 |
| lordievader | jubo2: Isn't that supposed to happen? | 10:33 |
| lordievader | Ah, wait the login screen. Never mind. | 10:33 |
| Smurphy | probably the twm or failsafe packages are not installed. | 10:33 |
| jubo2 | lordievader: I mean it puts you back in login screen _after_ ... yeah... | 10:33 |
| jubo2 | Smurphy: I have access to shell | 10:33 |
| jubo2 | How many tty:s there are by default? | 10:34 |
| jubo2 | I'm guessing 6 | 10:34 |
| Smurphy | well, 12 or more, but the question is what is listening on these tty's ? I know that my box has 1 getty listening to tty1 | 10:34 |
| jubo2 | So apparently my machine somewhere in time mixed up which is inbuilt and which is external display | 10:34 |
| jubo2 | So now that the Dock -> DisplayPort -> DVI external monitor is not connected I get blank/black screen because my Kubuntu15.10 used to lottery to which display it draws the K-menu | 10:36 |
| jubo2 | I just want to access the (hopefully) human readable and writeable display settings thank yous plos | 10:36 |
| jubo2 | xrandrx says same as the tty after login "Cannot open display: "default display"" | 10:38 |
| Smurphy | jubo2: 2 screen=setups are broken with kubuntu 15.10 ... :( | 10:39 |
| jubo2 | lordievader: you wouldn't happen to know where a human can change what the machine thinks of the displays ? | 10:39 |
| jubo2 | Smurphy: when there are 2 displays it works | 10:39 |
| jubo2 | Smurphy: when you undock it it doesn't work | 10:39 |
| jubo2 | Smurphy: I get blank/black screen after the loader bar after login on my Kubuntu15.10 (semi clean) | 10:40 |
| jubo2 | why is it semi clean and not clean or dirty? | 10:40 |
| jubo2 | coz.. | 10:40 |
| lordievader | jubo2: Not if I don't know what you mean... | 10:41 |
| jubo2 | I mounted the /home partition during the otherwise clean install | 10:41 |
| lordievader | jubo2: Could you describe the actual problem? | 10:41 |
| jubo2 | that made it detect old settings and also install new settings | 10:41 |
| jubo2 | lordievader: Problem.. you mean symptom | 10:41 |
| lordievader | Well... I guess.. | 10:42 |
| jubo2 | Blank screen after login | 10:42 |
| jubo2 | login after CTRL-ALT-F1 says "Cannot open display: 'default display'" | 10:43 |
| jubo2 | lordievader: this is the facts | 10:43 |
| jubo2 | my guess is that since it used some weird lottery method which caused the K-menu being drawn sometimes in external display, sometimes in internal on successive reboots without me changing any settings | 10:44 |
| lordievader | jubo2: Does plasma shell run? | 10:44 |
| jubo2 | lordievader: what's a plasma shell | 10:44 |
| lordievader | jubo2: By the by the second is normal, you didn't tell it where your display is. | 10:44 |
| lordievader | jubo2: ps aux|grep plasmashell | 10:44 |
| lordievader | It is the main process for the Plasma desktop. | 10:45 |
| jubo2 | ok hold on.. CTRL-ALT-F3 | 10:45 |
| jubo2 | lordievader: plasma shell is running with --shut-up switch | 10:45 |
| lordievader | jubo2: Hmm ok, remove ~/.local/share/kscreen/* and log out/log in. | 10:47 |
| jubo2 | I think this is weird that after 3 days of trying no-one can tell me what to do when xrandx doesn't run | 10:47 |
| lordievader | Unfortunately I cannot help you any further as I have to catch a train. | 10:47 |
| jubo2 | lordievader: you mean _move_ ~/.local/share/kscreen/* | 10:47 |
| jubo2 | ok thanks lordievader | 10:47 |
| jubo2 | but you should think of the newbz and give more gentile advice P-; | 10:48 |
| jubo2 | I go get some food from the kitchen | 10:49 |
| BluesKaj | Hiyas all | 11:05 |
| jubo2 | Ait.. removing that helped somewhat | 11:06 |
| jubo2 | now I am in graphical environment but weird thing now is that there is no K-menu and no taskbar on the bottom of the screen | 11:06 |
| svend-ev | Good morning | 11:18 |
| jubo2 | I need some more help to get the K-menu and taskbar back | 11:20 |
| jubo2 | but I can idle here | 11:20 |
| jubo2 | actually I have other chores I need to get done too | 11:21 |
| jubo2 | but will idle | 11:21 |
| jubo2 | And the crucial help by lordievader to get to graphical interface at all was to move the stuff ~/.local/share/kscreen away from them | 11:22 |
| jubo2 | s/them/there/ | 11:23 |
| xieyi | I want to encrypt a file with kgpg. but now I cant find the option from the right mouse menu in dolphin. it was there before I upgraded to 15.10. | 12:22 |
| xieyi | how can I encrypt with kgpg now? | 12:22 |
| Eluus | kubuntu crashed now it wants my kde wallet password and it doesn't accept my login pw | 12:27 |
| Eluus | how do I find out what the password is? | 12:28 |
| BluesKaj | Eluus, what happens when you try your pw, does the login just give the incorrect message or ? | 12:31 |
| Eluus | it says incorrect password | 12:32 |
| Eluus | I just closed it now and so far the browser and this is working fine though | 12:32 |
| Eluus | chromium crashed the os | 12:33 |
| BluesKaj | Eluus, best to just disable kwallet unless you really need it . That's what I've done being a home user. | 12:35 |
| Eluus | ok thanks | 12:35 |
| BluesKaj | that chrome prompt can be ignored, ther's fix to get rid of it in the forums | 12:35 |
| Eluus | prompt for kde wallet? | 12:36 |
| Globulle | Hello, I've just upgraded to ubuntu wily (15.10) and I've discovered that the PPA for digikam does not exist for this version. Is this just a matter of time? | 12:36 |
| BluesKaj | yes | 12:36 |
| Eluus | ah okay | 12:36 |
| Globulle | to *kubuntu | 12:37 |
| BluesKaj | kdewallet for chrome , but disable kwallet itself in system settings>account details on 15.04 | 12:37 |
| BluesKaj | Eluus,^ | 12:38 |
| Eluus | I have the kwallet completely disabled | 12:38 |
| BluesKaj | Globulle, digikam is in the repos , no ppa needed | 12:39 |
| Eluus | yeah it seems disabled on there too | 12:39 |
| Eluus | guess it will not bother me anymore? | 12:39 |
| Eluus | I liked how kubuntu dealt with the crash though | 12:39 |
| BluesKaj | Eluus, it might , but click the X | 12:40 |
| Eluus | no freeze just a quick new session | 12:40 |
| Globulle | BluesKaj : it disappeared when I did the upgrade, and now when I want to install it from the repos, I get unsatified dependencies | 12:41 |
| Eluus | BluesKaj: http://postimg.org/image/ye7x1ncp7/ | 12:42 |
| BluesKaj | Globulle, run sudo dpkg --configure -a , then sudo apt-get -f install | 12:43 |
| pontius | Hi there, anyone having freeze issues with 15.10.? The OS gets unresponsive for a few seconds put the mouse is movable. any input is executed once the freeze stops. any ideas? | 12:43 |
| BluesKaj | Eluus, ok good | 12:43 |
| Eluus | k thanks | 12:43 |
| Globulle | BluesKaj : no risk to overwrite my settings and databases ? | 12:44 |
| BluesKaj | pontius , is this shortly after logiing in, if so you may have baloo indexing running | 12:45 |
| hateball | How do you manage passwords without using kwallet? | 12:45 |
| BluesKaj | Globulle, , strictly fixes the dependencies | 12:45 |
| BluesKaj | hateball, I use aliases and all no password in the sudoer file, however I don't recommend it to anyone of course | 12:47 |
| BluesKaj | aliases in .bashrc | 12:47 |
| hateball | :\ | 12:47 |
| Globulle | BluesKaj : I still get an error : "digikam : Dépend: digikam-data (= 4:4.12.0-0ubuntu5) but 4:4.14.0-vivid~ppa1 need to be installed" (translated from french) | 12:48 |
| Globulle | (maybe I used a more recent version than the one in the repository, since I used the PPA ?) | 12:49 |
| hateball | So either remove the packages from PPA and reinstall from official repos, or update the ppa config to wily | 12:50 |
| BluesKaj | Globulle, did you install the 15.04 ppa back in your repos , because ppas are supposed to be removed automatically when installing a new OS | 12:54 |
| pontius_ | BluseKaj, the freezes are there from the very beginning and reoccuring. Search feature is turned off, but akonadi_baloo_indexer is running. | 12:56 |
| BluesKaj | pontius_, do you use kmail akonadi-server? | 12:58 |
| Pinkamena_D | when installing kubuntu-desktop, all new users start with gwenview as the default file manager, which does not even make sense because it is seemingly for viewing images and other files don't show up by default. | 13:00 |
| pontius_ | BluesKaj, yes I use kmail, but i have no idea what akonadi-server actually is or does | 13:00 |
| Pinkamena_D | How can I switch the default file manager for all new users so that they use dolphin or nautilus by default instead of gwenview? | 13:00 |
| Globulle | My problem is that there is no repos for the Wily version : https://launchpad.net/~philip5/+archive/ubuntu/extra | 13:00 |
| Globulle | no *ppa | 13:02 |
| Smurphy | BluesKaj: You got any info on the va-api issue ? | 13:02 |
| BluesKaj | pontius_, kmail uses akonadi as an email data base for kamil | 13:03 |
| BluesKaj | Globulle, digicam is in the regular universe repos | 13:04 |
| pontius_ | BluesKaj, ok thx. This might cause the freezes? If so is there a way to deal with this issue or do I need to switch to kubuntu? Is this a common problem baloo causes or do you know of other things that might cause this problem? | 13:07 |
| pontius_ | *thunderbird | 13:07 |
| pontius_ | switch to thunderbird not kubuntu of course | 13:08 |
| BluesKaj | pontius_, if you have decent spec'd pc then thses frezes may be caused by bugs or poor graphics performance. which gpu do you have? | 13:09 |
| BluesKaj | Smurphy, have you seen this https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/wily/+source/intel-vaapi-driver , dunno if it will help | 13:10 |
| Globulle | BluesKaj: Ok I will try to solve this problem with the repos | 13:11 |
| BluesKaj | Globulle, recommend you use the default regular repos first for packages, ppas are only necessary for bleeding edge apps and drivers | 13:12 |
| BluesKaj | pontius_, lspci | grep VGA, to find your gpu | 13:13 |
| pontius_ | BluesKaj, thx: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09) | 13:14 |
| BluesKaj | pontius_, ok, lspci -nnk | grep -i vga -A3 | grep 'in use', include the quotes, this tells us the driver in use | 13:18 |
| amichair | the system tray icon says that there are 3 packages to update, but running apt-get update and dist-upgrade shows everything is up to date | 13:19 |
| amichair | on which package should I report the bug? | 13:19 |
| pontius_ | BluesKaj, Kernel driver in use: i915 | 13:19 |
| BluesKaj | amichair, run apt-get upgrade , don't skip to dist-upgrade | 13:20 |
| amichair | BluesKaj: I thought dist-upgrade was a superset of upgrade | 13:21 |
| amichair | BluesKaj: in any case, I ran upgrade too and there's no difference | 13:21 |
| amichair | notification icon is still wrong | 13:21 |
| BluesKaj | pontius_, have you updated and upgraded since the installation? | 13:21 |
| BluesKaj | then turn the notification off, i don't rely on them for updates/upgrades because they're inaccurate a lot of the time, amichair | 13:23 |
| amichair | BluesKaj: I don't either too much... but it still seems like a bug that should be reported somewhere so they can fix it | 13:23 |
| BluesKaj | amichair, go ahead but it's a dupe that's been around for at least last 3 releases | 13:24 |
| amichair | BluesKaj: oh, didn't know that. | 13:24 |
| amichair | BluesKaj: in that case, nevermind. | 13:24 |
| amichair | BluesKaj: Thanks. | 13:25 |
| BluesKaj | it's kind of low on the lo=ist and it's more of ann annoyance than a real bug from the devs POV methinks | 13:25 |
| Smurphy | BluesKaj: I';ll check. Thx. (Was on the phone ;) ) ... | 13:26 |
| Smurphy | Misisng dependencies. Will have to check it. | 13:28 |
| Smurphy | Conf-call to follow... | 13:28 |
| amichair | BluesKaj: an indicator icon that indicates the wrong state sounds like a bug to me :-) | 13:29 |
| BluesKaj | amichair,it's probly a bug that keeps recurring and has been reported many times, but chack launchpad if you want | 13:30 |
| pontius_ | BluesKaj, I did a clean installation of 15.04 some months ago and know upgraded to 15.10. I update and upgrade daily.

| BluesKaj | pontius_, ok it installed the upgrade to the driver, reboot and check for freezes | 13:46 |
| Smurphy | BluesKaj: You use the new va-api drivers ? | 13:47 |
| pontius_ | thx, over and out | 13:48 |
| BluesKaj | Smurphy, no, my gpu is the 4000 so the i915 driver works with that gpu | 13:49 |
| BluesKaj | Smurphy, sorry isn't your gpu and AMD ? | 13:53 |
| BluesKaj | an | 13:54 |
| Smurphy | BluesKaj: I got the HD 4000 - it does not work. | 13:54 |
| Smurphy | When I start a mp4 movie, it bails out. Does not display anything with vlc. Mplayer works - but it is all CPU based. | 13:54 |
| BluesKaj | the i915 driver not working, Smurphy | 13:54 |
| Smurphy | I know it is not working... :( darn ... | 13:55 |
| BluesKaj | Smurphy, got xserver-xorg-video-intel ? | 13:55 |
| pontius | Blueskaj, seems to work, thx so much! I will try for some time, but I'm optimistic | 13:56 |
| BluesKaj | ok pontius, hope it works for you | 13:57 |
| BluesKaj | Smurphy, do you have the i965-va-driver in your package manager listed as installed ? | 13:58 |

| Smurphy | It is in. | 14:10 |
| BluesKaj | Smurphy mp4 can be difficult on linux and vlc, the video itself may not play | 14:10 |
| Smurphy | ii i965-va-driver:amd64 1.6.0-1 amd64 VAAPI driver for Intel G45 & HD Graphics family | 14:10 |
| Smurphy | It is all installed. On Kubuntu 15.04 it works, under 15.10 it does not. | 14:11 |
| BluesKaj | some do some don't from what I see on the forums | 14:11 |
| Smurphy | yes. We should check if it is Apple related, or not :} | 14:14 |
| BluesKaj | Smurphy, you could try converting the mp4 to a different codec and make sure you have ffmpeg installed | 14:15 |
| BluesKaj | ffmpeg isn't installed by default | 14:16 |

| Voyage | I am using 'audio-recorder' in kubuntu but it is giving a huge buzz sound in the background. This buzz sound is not while I actually play an audio file but is there when I record that audio file. Is there any good solution to record sound from my sound card or any kind of application like browser, audio player etc? | 14:16 |

| wizkoder | is it a known problem that skype looses voice from time to time in kubuntu? | 14:30 |
| BluesKaj | jubo2, do you mean the panel or the taskbar for the panel ? | 14:31 |
| jubo2 | I mean the whole thing that is supposed to be at the bottom of my screen BluesKaj | 14:32 |
| jubo2 | BluesKaj: I guess it thinks that this is not the primary display so it doesn't draw the grey bar at the bottom | 14:33 |
| BluesKaj | jubo2, then right click on the desktop , choose add panel , then in the add widgets type launcher and you see the k-menu kicker there | 14:34 |
| jubo2 | Ouiiii.. Success | 14:34 |
| jubo2 | Thanks BluesKaj | 14:34 |
| BluesKaj | np | 14:34 |
| Smurphy | Doh - found a new bug. Reproduction of the Bug: Boot up system while having a USB Disk plugged in (USB 3.0) you don't use. Use your system for a while, then just unplug the USB Disk. | 14:35 |
| Smurphy | System Hang ! | 14:35 |
| jubo2 | I reboot now to see it brings the system up properly | 14:35 |
| BluesKaj | Smurphy, I used legacy mode to install kubuntu on UEFI/BIOS laptop. now about every dozen bootups or so grub goes undetected and i have use usb stick to make the thing search for the boot/mbr, and even that fails sometimes, so theonly alternative is to pull the battery for a few mins. | 14:41 |
| BluesKaj | bit of a pita | 14:42 |
| jubo2 | yeah.. works now | 14:43 |
| jubo2 | thanks BluesKaj | 14:43 |
| jubo2 | you and lordievader sorted my broken system | 14:43 |
| BluesKaj | jubo2, yw | 14:43 |
| jubo2 | Was not nice feeling being without any operational computer operating systems | 14:43 |
| Smurphy | BluesKaj: I hvae the Apple EFI, using refind. Easier. Should also work with any UEFI system. | 14:44 |
| BluesKaj | well now you know how to replace a panel | 14:44 |
| BluesKaj | Smurphy, refind? | 14:45 |
| Smurphy | yes - refind :) | 14:46 |
| Smurphy | http://www.rodsbooks.com/refind/ That one :) | 14:46 |
| Smurphy | I leave the grub installation next to it, and if I have to, fix the efi/uefi table manually. | 14:49 |
| jubo2 | Whee! Actually got my 20W rechargeable bluetooth speaker to work with GNU/Linukka | 14:53 |
| jubo2 | some days you make progress, most you don't | 14:53 |
| BluesKaj | yeah, well i don't feel like creating a new partition table and having to reinstall 2 OSs right now , so i'll just have to grin and bear it | 14:54 |
| BluesKaj | Smurphy,^ | 14:54 |
| Smurphy | BluesKaj: I have only 1 OS running, and the refind stuff is installed in the EFI partition (which usually is also available on every OS right now). | 14:57 |
| BluesKaj | Smurphy, i wiped the hdd clean when got the laptop and then I used legacy mode to install W7 and kubuntu | 14:58 |
| BluesKaj | I didn't know much about UEFI at the time and still don't | 14:59 |
| BluesKaj | windows 8.1 wasn't my cup of tea | 15:00 |

| clivejo | anyone suggest good HDD recover tool for Kubuntu? | 15:13 |
| MoonUnit` | clivejo, this is the only one i've tried http://foremost.sourceforge.net command line | 15:18 |
| clivejo | does it go for the raw data? | 15:21 |
| genii | clivejo: I would normally plug another larger drive in, boot to livecd and install ddrescue, make an image of the drive to a file on the larger drive, and then work with the image and not the original | 15:22 |
| clivejo | its not a system disk | 15:23 |
| genii | clivejo: Would have it mounted read-only, then still make an umage with ddrescue and work with the rescue image ( with stuff like photorec for instance). If it needs some kind of lower-level fixing, Ultimate Boot CD has a crapload of utilities for different drive makes and manufacturers ( like low-level formatting, etc) | 15:27 |
| clivejo | is ddrescue in archives? | 15:27 |
| genii | Yes, as gddrescue | 15:28 |
| genii | !info gddrescue | 15:28 |
| ubottu | gddrescue (source: gddrescue): GNU data recovery tool. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.19-2 (wily), package size 108 kB, installed size 386 kB | 15:28 |
| genii | ddrescue will skip over corrupted areas instead of chunking out like regular dd would, so it's preferred for drives that might be failing | 15:29 |

| Maysam | Hi. Is there jalali calendar in kubuntu 15-10 ? | 17:16 |
| BluesKaj_ | julian calendar? | 17:17 |
| Maysam | No, Jalali calendar. It was in Kubuntu 14-04. | 17:17 |
| BluesKaj_ | what kind of calendar is that?..it's new to me | 17:19 |
| Maysam | No, its persian calendar. | 17:19 |
| yanis | hello, I'm new user of kubuntu, happy with it :) | 17:24 |
| BluesKaj_ | yanis, good to hear | 17:26 |
| yanis | hope me good luck, I'm installing restricted ubuntu extras to be able to play mp3 files. will it work guys? | 17:26 |
| BluesKaj_ | yes | 17:26 |
| apparle | I just moved from 14.04 to 15.10 and I'm noticing a few bugs here and there. For example Dolphin has no service menus | 17:26 |
| BluesKaj_ | restricted-kubuntu-extras if you're on kubuntu | 17:27 |
| yanis | wow! in this case, very great, cause I like too much the plasma 5 and how beutiful it is | 17:27 |
| BluesKaj_ | app it does , but there aren't many , you can download what you need, mostly | 17:28 |
| BluesKaj_ | apparle,^ | 17:28 |
| yanis | what about ubuntu one, will it do the trick instead of kubuntu one? | 17:28 |
| apparle | BluesKaj_: whoever you were pointing out the restricted extras... it is kubuntu-restricted-extras | 17:28 |
| BluesKaj_ | apparle, yeah, my mistake | 17:29 |
| apparle | No, it seems there is a bug due to which Dolphin is not picking up most of the menus https://help.ubuntu.com/15.10/ubuntu-help/power-hibernate.html | 17:29 |
| apparle | https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=350769 * | 17:29 |
| ubottu | KDE bug 350769 in general "Service menus require konqpopupmenuplugin.desktop" [Normal,Resolved: fixed] | 17:29 |
| BluesKaj_ | yanis, kubuntu-restricted-extras | 17:29 |
| BluesKaj_ | yanis, there is no kubuntu one | 17:30 |
| yanis | ahh.... yes because I tried kubuntu, then I got error in terminal. | 17:30 |
| yanis | I mean kubuntu restricted :) | 17:31 |
| BluesKaj_ | kubuntu-restricted-extras | 17:31 |
| yanis | thanks BTW BluesKaj | 17:31 |
| BluesKaj_ | yw | 17:32 |
| apparle | I got disconnected. Is there a list anyone has created by any chance ? | 17:33 |
| BluesKaj_ | I have 5 services in dolphin, they seem adequate | 17:35 |
| apparle | Do you have the extract options when you right click on any zip file | 17:35 |
| apparle | zip or any compressed archive | 17:35 |
| BluesKaj_ | I use unp in the terminal to decompress files | 17:36 |
| apparle | I seem to have a horrible network connection... getting dropped every now and then. BluesKaj_ did you reply anything? | 17:38 |
| BluesKaj_ | apparle, I use unp in the terminal to decompress files | 17:38 |
| gombean | hi, I have nvidia 780ti and I'm using Kubuntu 15.10. Which driver should I be using? I am having issues at the moment with plasma | 19:15 |
| gombean | ....Plasma is crashing very often | 19:16 |
| Pinkamena_D | Sorry if I seem to be asking this a lot, but I am having trouble finding the correct answer anywhere. I started with a 14.04 version of ubuntu server and installed kubuntu-desktop on it. The default file manager that came with this was gwenview, which is not a real file manager - iit is am image viewer. | 19:18 |
| Pinkamena_D | This has annoyed many new users who come, and must switch their default manually or are confused by gwenview. How can I switch the default manager, so that new users start getting an actual manager like nautilus or dolphin? | 19:19 |
| genii | Pinkamena_D: Try in System Settings... Personalization... Applications... Default Applications... file Manager | 19:24 |
| Pinkamena_D | genii, that is for the current user only, not new ones. | 19:24 |
| genii | Pinkamena_D: Would need to create an entry then in /etc/skel/.kde/share/config with whichever rc file contains that ( I'm not sure which one exactly) | 19:28 |
| genii | Interesting, when I change my default to gwenview instead of dolphin, it appears in mimeapps.list there, but not before that | 19:32 |
| Pinkamena_D | if I change to nautilus for one user, I get the following two files changed: ./share/apps/RecentDocuments/nautilus.desktop, ./share/config/keditfiletyperc | 19:34 |
| Pinkamena_D | is mimeapps.list somewhere else? | 19:34 |
| genii | Pinkamena_D: mimeapps.list is in ~/.kde/share/config/ | 19:41 |

| Ferdi | Hi, since my upgrade to Wily Kubuntu i got after the login (and loading screen) a black screen. When i boot with nomodeset i get desktop, but not accelerated. Adding or removing external monitors freeze the whole system. Resuming freezes most of the time too. I have a MacbookPro 11.1 with intel graphics. I downgraded & upgraded the kernel, xorg intel drivers, mesa drivers. Anyone a idea what could be a next step? | 21:01 |
| === genii is now known as zombiegenii | ||
| bprompt | Ferdi: dunno, maybe try a fresh wily install? | 21:07 |
| === zombiegenii is now known as genii | ||
| achimd1 | @bprompt: doesn't work. | 21:08 |
| Ferdi | bprompt: Tnx for reply, but it's my work desktop, lot of work to reinstall i see it as last resort. | 21:13 |
| Ferdi | But will try a live usb later if it's not a common problem | 21:14 |
| bprompt | Ferdi: well, when you say, "lots of work", what do you mean? because, you can usually just backup your $HOME directory, and that saves all your configurations for all apps, with some exceptions | 21:16 |
| Ferdi | bprompt: ... you have a point, restore $home and dpkg -l | grep ^ii would be an idea. If the live usb works that would be possible. (although it's a bit of a windows solution :-) | 21:21 |
| bprompt | well, is a bit of an OS solution rather, since the issue may just be a few .so files, or maybe some configuration, that didn't upgrade well, that can simply be redone | 21:23 |

| Kayvee | Hey guys! Anyone knows how to refresh icon cache for Amarok? | 21:56 |
| bprompt | hmmm | 21:57 |
| Kayvee | I am using the latest Plasma but I don't see breeze icons for everything in Amarok. For example, some of the playlist icons are still the old Oxygen ones | 21:57 |
| Eluus | I have the same problem with audacious | 21:59 |
| bprompt | Kayvee: only spot I can think of, would be under .kde/share/apps/amarok | 22:00 |
| Kayvee | @Eluus - I had similar issues with KTorrent but that got fixed after I deleted the icons cache | 22:00 |
| Eluus | Kayvee: does it display the icons normally when you launch the program with kdesudo? | 22:00 |
| Kayvee | I haven't tried using kdesudo. | 22:00 |
| Eluus | can you try it for me? | 22:00 |
| Kayvee | bprompt: I will check out the amaork folder | 22:00 |
| Kayvee | Eluus: starting it using kdesudo does not fix it. I still see old Oxygen icons for some of the playlist icons. | 22:02 |
| === benonsoftware is now known as MisterHiyas | ||
| Kayvee | bprompt: do you know which folder I should be looking at? I don't want to delete the entire amarok folder because then I would loose all my settings too | 22:03 |
| bprompt | right... well... any cache folder :) | 22:04 |
| Kayvee | bprompt: I actually renamed the amarok folder to an unrelated one and relaunched amarok; that did not fix it. | 22:05 |
| Kayvee | I guess not all icons are in the breeze style then | 22:05 |
| bprompt | yeap | 22:08 |
| bprompt | Kayvee: keep in mind that, some themes replace only a few elements | 22:09 |
| Kayvee | bprompt: That's what it looks like. I tried googling but nothing useful turned up so far | 22:09 |
