[02:09] <volt72> Hi
[02:09] <volt72> ;)
[03:16] <duckgo> hello anybody can help with macbook drivers?
[03:17] <duckgo> hello?
[03:39] <volt72> sure
[03:39] <volt72> what drivers specifically?
[08:52] <lordievader> Good morning.
[09:10] <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?
[09:28] <soee_> dredneck: correct
[09:29] <soee_> in Plasma 5 some features were removed, some aren't ported yet
[09:34] <dredneck> ok, i didnt know if it was something dropped or something not installed
[09:39] <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?
[09:42] <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.
[09:53] <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?
[10:12] <Smurphy> irctc357: Yes. Same.
[10:40] <amovah> hi, How can i change my input keyboard source?
[10:43] <amovah> anyone can help me?
[10:47] <hateball> amovah: I am not sure I understand what you mean
[10:47] <hateball> amovah: Do you want to change the input language?
[10:48] <amovah> hateball: yes i want
[10:49] <amovah> hateball: in unity I can change the input source easily
[10:50] <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
[10:51] <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
[10:52] <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
[10:53] <amovah> let me try
[10:53] <amovah> hateball : thanks
[12:03] <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
[12:05] <hateball> caps: What version of Kubuntu are you using, and what GPU?
[12:05] <hateball> caps: And how did you install the drivers?
[12:06] <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?
[12:07] <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
[12:09] <clivejo> in there edit the kernel line option, the one that has "quiet splash" just add nomodeset to that to become "nomodeset quiet splash"
[12:10] <clivejo> if it works, you can add it permanantly *fingers crossed*
[12:10] <caps> i added nomodeset at the end of that line now
[12:11] <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
[12:12] <clivejo> hi BluesKaj
[12:12] <BluesKaj> hi clivejo
[12:12] <caps> it shouldn't?
[12:13] <hateball> caps: So what driver did you install?
[12:14] <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
[12:15] <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?
[12:16] <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?
[12:17] <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
[12:18] <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
[12:20] <caps> anyway everything works if i go to recovery mode, enable read write, drop to root shell, login as user and do startx
[12:21] <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.
[12:23] <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
[12:24] <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
[12:27] <caps> i added it at the end (i'm assuming each parameter is separated by space?) and i just see the kubuntu logo endlessly
[12:29] <TJ-> caps: space - correct. try pressing Esc to toggle the splash screen off
[12:31] <caps> esc doesn't seem to do anything
[12:31] <caps> ctrl alt del triggers a reboot at least
[12:32] <Smurphy> How about switching down to the console ???
[12:34] <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 ...
[12:35] <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 ?
[12:36] <caps> yeah
[12:36] <Smurphy> Well - check the /var/log directory for most logs. that's what KSystemLog does.
[12:37] <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
[12:38] <Smurphy> Lol. I knew there is a hickup. Configure to show max lines number
[12:40] <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
[12:48] <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"
[12:49] <Smurphy> Ah - yes. I by default disable plymouth on all my systems.
[12:50] <TJ-> caps: ensure that "nomodeset" is NOT there too, so as not to inhibit the expected correct behaviour
[13:05] <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> good afternoon
[13:05] <ultraspark> Hello
[13:06] <ultraspark> nikolaj_basher - change the default run level
[13:07] <ultraspark> this way it won't start x when you start it
[13:07] <nikolaj_basher> which runlevel is it?
[13:08] <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
[13:14] <svend-ev> Good morning
[13:15] <TJ-> nikolaj_basher: which release version is it? 15.10 ?
[13:16] <rom1504> nobody had issues with vlc in 15.10 ?
[13:16] <TJ-> That's good then :)
[13:16] <rom1504> (using an nvidia card and drivers)
[13:30] <nikolaj_basher> TJ-,15.10
[13:31] <nikolaj_basher> 15.10
[13:38] <TJ-> nikolaj_basher: OK, then it is systemd. You can disable the graphical boot with "systemctl disable graphical.target"
[13:39] <nikolaj_basher> TJ-, and that won't effect if I use it for VPN remote desktop?
[13:40] <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
[13:43] <nikolaj_basher> nice thanks
[13:43] <nikolaj_basher> TJ-,
[14:51] <gombean> I need more volume!
[14:51] <Smurphy> volume ? what volume ?
[15:00] <gombean> my system volume is very low, compared to, say, Windows(!)
[15:01] <gombean> I have amarok volume up full now and system volume up full
[15:01] <Z4sk4> gombean, try on terminal alsamixer
[15:01] <Z4sk4> and see if all its up
[15:02] <gombean> master is 100
[15:02] <gombean> headphone is 'MM'
[15:02] <marco-parillo> I have not tried it, but what about this: https://userbase.kde.org/Sound_Problems#Low_maximum_volume_with_PulseAudio_on_KDE_or_pavucontrol_shows_more_than_100.25_of_volume.2C_but_KMix_goes_only_up_to_100.25
[15:05] <gombean> meh, no. still very low
[15:05] <gombean> i would say about 60% of max volume in windows :/
[15:37] <parveen> i have installed kubuntu 15.10 on my system. Why it is not showing hibernate option into leave. is it disabled or it is not present in it
[15:43] <BluesKaj> parveen, it's been removed from the "Leave" options
[15:48] <parveen> what should i have to do to hibernate my system
[16:42] <parveen> can anyone tell me what should i do get hibernate into my kubuntu 15.10. it it not present in it
[16:47] <Walex> parveen: that's a vague question, but make sure you have the 'pm-utils' packages installed and therefore the 'pm-hibernate' command
[17:06] <parveen> hibernate is not present in leave
[19:26] <wfreeman> I have somehow managed to completely break KDE; I have no panels and a blank black desktop, and can only run programs using the alt-f2 shortcut. Is there any way to reset KDE to default settings?
[19:29] <soee_> create new user
[19:29] <genii> wfreeman: rm ~/.kde
[19:29] <soee_> or delete .config and .kde
[19:31] <wfreeman> Thanks; I'll try that.
[19:39] <hanmac> i hope i am not the only one that does miss the kdegames meta package in the current packages ... because i it seems i will not see it back this year :(
[19:42] <jhunold> yes, my wife has suffered, too ;-)
[19:43] <hanmac> and the joke: the debian package does work, but because ubuntu want to make things different, they broke it ... and didnt fixed it in more than 10 months!!!
[20:39] <Naizugai> Does anyone know how to remove this blue line in Firefox? http://upit.staltsoft.com/images/1446842325.png
[21:59] <allon> Hi
[21:59] <bprompt> allpo
[21:59] <allon> Can somebody help me?
[21:59] <bprompt> allo rather
[21:59] <bprompt> !ask
[22:00] <allon> all right :)
[22:00] <allon> I installed kubuntu 14.04 a good year ago to develop on gcompris
[22:01] <allon> and I never used it as I continued to develop on my 12.10
[22:01] <allon> now I have to use it to be able to use vorbis-tools
[22:01] <allon> but when I want to update kubuntu its says
[22:01] <allon> I installed kubuntu 14
[22:02] <allon> http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/u/util-linux/mount_2.20.1-5.1ubuntu20.6_i386.deb 404 Not Found [IP: 91.189.91.23 80]
[22:02] <allon> google does not help me at all
[22:02] <Unit193> Try  apt-get update  first.
[22:02] <allon> seems I have to go to source.lst
[22:02] <allon> ok
[22:02] <genii> sudo apt-get update
[22:05] <allon> seems to work :) no error message anymore and even if I can not see the download progress par displayed the download speed is changing
[22:05] <THOR13> kl-ü-ck
[22:05] <allon> thanks :)
[22:14] <Unit193> allon: For the progress bar, use  apt  rather than  apt-get.
[22:16] <allon> Unit193: I double clicked on the update icon in systrayn but now this is working. I can show a lots of messages "préparation de la configuration python 3" etc etc appearing on my screen.
[22:16] <Unit193> Ah yeah don't know about the GUI for this, never use it.
[22:22] <bprompt> I assume is probably Muon Package Manager
[22:27] <allon> the process running is called muon-updater
[22:29] <bprompt> right
[22:32] <allon> thanks a lot everything is updated and pc is rebooted
