| dredneck | trying 15.10. in 14.04 i had a search and launch layout under desktop settings. all that 15.10 has for layout is desktop and folder view. what am i missing? | 09:10 |

| soee_ | dredneck: correct | 09:28 |
| soee_ | in Plasma 5 some features were removed, some aren't ported yet | 09:29 |
| dredneck | ok, i didnt know if it was something dropped or something not installed | 09:34 |
| irctc357 | Hi there! My system language was English US but it seems like Kubuntu decided that some programs like Kate and some others should be in German... I checked /etc/default/locale and the language settings are correct. My keyboard layout is Swiss but that's correct and it also was never a problem before. Does anyone know how I can fix this so that everything is English again? | 09:39 |
| Smurphy | irctc357: all gnome-based programs I am running are displayed in french, even though I have all configured for US English. | 09:42 |
| Smurphy | I do however live in France, and I have German and French dictionaries enabled. | 09:42 |
| === eugen is now known as Guest47410 | ||
| irctc357 | Smurphy: Thanks for your reply! Are the dictionaries you spoke about the same as the translations under "System Settings - Regional Settings - Translations"? Or are they something else? | 09:53 |
| Smurphy | irctc357: Yes. Same. | 10:12 |

| amovah | hi, How can i change my input keyboard source? | 10:40 |
| amovah | anyone can help me? | 10:43 |
| hateball | amovah: I am not sure I understand what you mean | 10:47 |
| hateball | amovah: Do you want to change the input language? | 10:47 |
| amovah | hateball: yes i want | 10:48 |
| amovah | hateball: in unity I can change the input source easily | 10:49 |
| amovah | but now I'm confiuse | 10:50 |
| amovah | confuse* | 10:50 |
| hateball | amovah: are you on 14.04 or 15.10 ? | 10:50 |
| amovah | 15.10 | 10:50 |
| amovah | in KDE desktop | 10:50 |
| amovah | I have no problem in unity and gnome desktop | 10:51 |
| hateball | I dont remember offhand in 15.10, but if you open krunner (alt+space) and search for "keyboard" you should have an option for language settings | 10:51 |
| hateball | by default it will be set to your system language, but you should be able to add more layouts and switch between them | 10:52 |
| hateball | otherwise you can just switch in a terminal using "setxkbmap us" or whatever layout you want | 10:52 |
| amovah | let me try | 10:53 |
| amovah | hateball : thanks | 10:53 |

| caps | i've installed the proprietary nvidia drivers and i'm just getting a black screen on boot. however when i go to recovery mode, drop to root shell, login as my user and do startx from there it works | 12:03 |
| caps | when i do a normal boot i think i see the tty login thing for half a second but then everything goes black | 12:03 |
| hateball | caps: What version of Kubuntu are you using, and what GPU? | 12:05 |
| hateball | caps: And how did you install the drivers? | 12:05 |
| caps | 15.10 and gtx 970 | 12:06 |
| caps | i installed from recovery mode | 12:06 |
| clivejo | caps: have you tried the "nomodeset" kernel boot option? | 12:06 |
| === it_tard is now known as nfk|laptop | ||
| caps | i don't know what that is lol | 12:07 |
| caps | how can i try? | 12:07 |
| clivejo | you know how to access grub? | 12:07 |
| caps | yeah | 12:07 |
| clivejo | in there edit the kernel line option, the one that has "quiet splash" just add nomodeset to that to become "nomodeset quiet splash" | 12:09 |
| clivejo | if it works, you can add it permanantly *fingers crossed* | 12:10 |
| caps | i added nomodeset at the end of that line now | 12:10 |
| clivejo | try booting with that | 12:11 |
| caps | looks the same. the kubuntu logo thing shows and then everything goes black | 12:11 |
| clivejo | kubuntu logo shouldnt show | 12:11 |
| BluesKaj | Hiyas all | 12:11 |
| clivejo | hi BluesKaj | 12:12 |
| BluesKaj | hi clivejo | 12:12 |
| caps | it shouldn't? | 12:12 |
| hateball | caps: So what driver did you install? | 12:13 |
| hateball | caps: Did you install from nVidia, or did you install from Ubuntu repository? | 12:14 |
| caps | at first i installed the beta driver. same issue but i just "whatever" and went to recovery to startx from there | 12:14 |
| caps | it had some bugs though so i switched to the previous one | 12:14 |
| caps | from nvidia | 12:14 |
| caps | i'm developing some opengl application and i think i'm running into some bugs with the api so i wanted to test the latest drivers | 12:14 |
| TJ- | caps: Hang on, is the screen backlight turning off, or does te backlight remain on but the screen is blank (black/purple colour) | 12:15 |
| hateball | caps: Remove that. Add this PPA https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa and install nvidia-graphics-drivers-355 from it | 12:15 |
| caps | screen turns off | 12:15 |
| TJ- | caps: at what stage during startup does it turn off? | 12:15 |
| caps | i'm not sure, after the logo shows | 12:16 |
| caps | how can i tell? | 12:16 |
| caps | logs from previous boot? | 12:16 |
| TJ- | caps: boot without "quiet splash" so you can see the kernel/init system messages | 12:16 |
| TJ- | caps: but... was it working previously with the nouveau driver? | 12:16 |
| caps | everything happens too fast lol | 12:17 |
| TJ- | caps: I'm wondering if it is simply the case that the monitor you have connected is NOT on the GPU's *primary* output | 12:17 |
| caps | i have two monitors connected | 12:17 |
| TJ- | caps: for multi-head GPU cards, 1 output is designated primary. the open-source driver will clone output to all of them but the nvidia driver turns off all but the primary | 12:17 |
| caps | yeah i only see output on one of my monitors | 12:18 |
| caps | the other one is a 4k tv connected through display port | 12:18 |
| caps | the main one is just a normal pc monitor connected with dvi | 12:18 |
| caps | anyway everything works if i go to recovery mode, enable read write, drop to root shell, login as user and do startx | 12:20 |
| TJ- | caps: I'd also recommend trying to boot to a text console. on the kernel command-line add "systemd.unit=multi-user.target" | 12:21 |
| TJ- | caps: then from there try "sudo systemctl start graphical.target" | 12:21 |
| TJ- | caps: that'll tell at what stage the problem occurs. | 12:21 |
| caps | is that a startup parameter? i'm not sure where to add it (brb google) | 12:23 |
| TJ- | caps: I'm wondering if the Xorg xserver driver is configuring to drive the 'missing' outputs when it starts, which would explain the monitor going off | 12:23 |
| TJ- | caps: Yes, "kernel command-line" - so add it by modifying the GRUB boot entry | 12:23 |
| caps | ah, i can just do that temporarily with the e and ctrl x thing? | 12:24 |
| TJ- | caps: reboot. Hold 'Shift' until the GRUB boot manager menu shows. Highlight the default (first) entry. Press 'E' to edit. Navigate to the line starting "linux ..." and add to it "systemd.unit=multi-user.target". Immediately press Ctrl+X or F10 to boot with that change | 12:24 |
| caps | i added it at the end (i'm assuming each parameter is separated by space?) and i just see the kubuntu logo endlessly | 12:27 |
| TJ- | caps: space - correct. try pressing Esc to toggle the splash screen off | 12:29 |
| caps | esc doesn't seem to do anything | 12:31 |
| caps | ctrl alt del triggers a reboot at least | 12:31 |
| Smurphy | How about switching down to the console ??? | 12:32 |
| caps | hmm yeah that works | 12:34 |
| caps | and from there i can startx | 12:34 |
| Smurphy | Yes - or you can restart the session, or even have a look at the logs for what is going on ... | 12:34 |
| caps | can i do this from KSystemLog? | 12:35 |
| caps | i'm not really that good with linux | 12:35 |
| Smurphy | What is KSystemLog ? | 12:35 |
| Smurphy | Ah -= application to look at logfils ? | 12:35 |
| caps | yeah | 12:36 |
| Smurphy | Well - check the /var/log directory for most logs. that's what KSystemLog does. | 12:36 |
| Smurphy | Once the X session went berserk, go down to the console, the to that directory, and with a: ls -lrt you will see the logfiles, ordered by most recent changes last (means the last file is the one that received content most recently0. | 12:37 |
| Smurphy | But yes, you should be able to use KSystemLog | 12:37 |
| Smurphy | Amazing, I didn't even know ksystemlog existed... Testing it out now ;D | 12:37 |
| Smurphy | Lol. I knew there is a hickup. Configure to show max lines number | 12:38 |
| Smurphy | *lol* I can't reboot my system for checking logs... My /var/log, /tmp, /var/tmp are all located on ram-drives for speed reasons :} abd because ssd :D | 12:40 |
| TJ- | caps: sounds like a splash issue if booting with 'multi-user.target' isn't presenting the console. That's done by 'plymouth' which is triggered by the "splash" keyword on the kernel command-line. Might be worth trying again with "systemd.unit=multi-user.target" without "splash" | 12:48 |
| Smurphy | Ah - yes. I by default disable plymouth on all my systems. | 12:49 |
| TJ- | caps: ensure that "nomodeset" is NOT there too, so as not to inhibit the expected correct behaviour | 12:50 |
| nikolaj_basher | Hi, is there away to turn KDE off so it won't start automatially when the computer boots. It's because I will use it for server and I don't want to use Ram on it when I don't need it | 13:05 |

| === thudson is now known as huddy | ||

| ultraspark | Hello | 13:05 |
| ultraspark | nikolaj_basher - change the default run level | 13:06 |
| ultraspark | this way it won't start x when you start it | 13:07 |
| nikolaj_basher | which runlevel is it? | 13:07 |
| nikolaj_basher | the reason why I don't use debian instead is because i would like it to run vpn (KDE remote desktop) in the feauture | 13:08 |
| svend-ev | Good morning | 13:14 |
| TJ- | nikolaj_basher: which release version is it? 15.10 ? | 13:15 |

| nikolaj_basher | 15.10 | 13:31 |
| === user is now known as Guest28359 | ||
| TJ- | nikolaj_basher: OK, then it is systemd. You can disable the graphical boot with "systemctl disable graphical.target" | 13:38 |
| nikolaj_basher | TJ-, and that won't effect if I use it for VPN remote desktop? | 13:39 |
| TJ- | nikolaj_basher: that simply stops the sddm/lightdm/whatever display manager service from being automatically started at boot. You can still start it manually | 13:40 |
| nikolaj_basher | nice thanks | 13:43 |
