[00:10] Letr5ts: pretty much as the factoid says [00:11] I let my router do the work, personally [00:11] :) [00:18] Letr5ts: hhhmm there used to be a kfw or kfirewall, not sure if its there still in kde4 [00:18] !ufw | Letr5ts [00:18] Letr5ts: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has built-in firewall capabilities.

[00:36] valorie: ah. Frameworks 5 [00:37] sorry for the jargon [00:37] yes, frameworks 5 [00:38] what do you think will happen to Kubuntu with Jonathan Ridell leaving? [00:39] JR += [00:39] we'll be a bit slower [00:39] JR += [00:40] we have no paid work now, so releases will be slower, especially now as we try to ramp up tooling [00:40] all help welcome! [00:43] Firewall GUI viewer sw??? [00:45] Letr5ts: if that is what you love, we'd like your help, yes [00:45] on the Kubuntu level, or upstream in KDE [00:45] I am wondering if there is such a thing. [00:46] the "viewer" part I don't know [00:46] yes, there was kfirewall, and ufw-kde [00:46] !ufw-kde [00:47] err [00:47] !info ufw-kde [00:47] ufw-kde (source: ufw-kde): KDE KCM to configure and control the Uncomplicated Firewall. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.5.0-0ubuntu1 (wily), package size 473 kB, installed size 901 kB [00:50] valorie: I see "Firewall" under KDE System Settings > Network. Is that ufw-kde? It's config only, not a firewall/network status monitor. [00:50] right, KCM means control module [00:51] if there is a monitor, it would be a widget of some sort [00:51] available from the "hamburger" menu of plasma [00:51] either on the desktop or panel, depending on how you work [01:01] I read some months ago that ksecret would replace kwallet and that would also address all the long standing complains about kwallet password prompts at login [01:01] Im on 15.10 now and I dont get the password prompt anymore at login. But I dont see ksecret in running process [01:03] Any idea what actually the change that does that? [01:03] Just curious [01:13] hey I'm about to try installing kubuntu 14.04 in a dual boot setup with win 10. anything i should watch out for? [02:26] anyone else having issues with sddm-greeter in 15.10? I can't get into kubuntu from both the live cd and from a full install, I've tried redownloading to no avail [02:27] Executable: ssdm-greeter PID: 3534 Signal: Segmentation fault (11) Time: 11/9/15 02:24:01 [02:55] hmm, cyberquake left [02:55] redownloading is usually not a help [02:56] excalibr: I think ksecret is part of kwallet? [02:56] but I've not read up on it [03:13] valorie, by the way, do you have any workaround for output audio device not switching back to lineout when I plug out headphone from lineout port? [03:14] switch back to speakers* [03:15] hmmm, the only time I had that problem it was a kernel bug [03:15] and the workaround was a kernel patch! [03:16] what version of kubuntu are you using, excalibr? [03:17] Im on 15.10. Been having this issue since I started using plasma 5 [03:17] interesting [03:17] I'm also on 15.10, and have not experienced those issues [03:17] so I'm assuming that it's a driver issue [03:18] I would tend to open up alsamixer and watch what happens when I un/plug in the earphones [03:18] if not alsa, then pulseaudio [03:19] lastly, kmix [03:19] somewhere, the unplug action isn't being registered [03:27] valorie, sorry not so familiar with alsamixer. Where do I need to look a change in alsamixer while un/pluging in earphone [03:28] !info alsamix [03:28] Package alsamix does not exist in wily [03:28] pfff [03:28] !alsamix [03:28] grrrr [03:28] it is a cli application, but you use your arrow keys to navigate it [03:28] haha [03:29] I know its cli. Im staring at alsamixer now but I dont know what exactly to look at [03:29] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/Alsamixer [03:29] oh, sorry [03:30] that page is better than me 'splaining [03:30] !alsamixer [03:30] silly ubottu [03:30] not sure what happened to the handy factoid [03:38] valorie, so while playing some song on speaker I plugged in earphone. I saw the speaker bar in alsamixer switched to MM. Then I unplugged the earphone, the speaker bar still has MM on it. Is that what should I observed in alsamixer? [03:39] well, that shows that the "message" never gets to alsa [03:39] which is pretty far down on the stack [03:40] how about the mic input, does that register? [03:40] you can use your earphones to test that in the input jack [03:41] they are bad mics, but can function that way [03:46] valorie, wait. Something magical happened. In alsamixer, with speaker still muted after I unplug the earphone, if I manually unmute the speaker bar after that, everything works as it should after that. Plugging in earphone, audio goes to lineout and unpluggin earphone, audio goes back to speakers [03:46] cool! [03:46] What is..happening! [03:46] Haa [03:47] So what is the bug here? [03:47] alsamixer is a nice tool to have in your back pocket [03:47] not so good to use all the time [03:47] well, hard to say if it was a hardware problem or software? [03:48] or, where in the stack it happened [03:48] like: "playing some song" -- in what? [03:48] most likely software? Ive never had this problem in gnome/unity [03:48] Amarok? Youtube? [03:48] well, I've not had it in kubuntu either [03:51] I was playing song in Spotify but now Im playing song in Amarok [03:52] do you get the same behavior on both? [03:52] because Amarok uses phonon and spotify doesn' [03:52] t [03:53] blender thumbnail for dolphin 15.08.2, ideas? [03:54] valorie: Yep, the correct behavior on both. But only after I unmuted the speaker bar a while ago [03:55] excalibr: so I guess then I would check with kmix, and pulseaudio in turn [03:55] as you did with alsamixer [03:55] if it is the same behavior on all, it's gotta be either a driver or hardware [03:57] valorie, do I need to undo the change I did in alsamixer first before checking with kmix/pulseaudio? [03:57] that I do not know [03:58] as I said, the only time I had your problem was years ago [03:58] and it was the kernel [03:58] about as far down the stack as you can go [03:58] :p [04:00] excalibr whats problem? [04:01] Hudsonkem, my output audio device doesnt switch back to speakers when I unplug ear/headphone [04:02] 山 :O ok, just a moment [04:06] read about it ok, so take back if u not solve it :)>>>http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2058548 [04:15] Hudsonkem, ty I'll give it a go [04:47] Does anyone else experience in 15.10 times where the thubnails that show up when you hover over a taskbar item don't go away when you mouse away from the taskbar? [04:51] jbermudes right click on taskbar and go to task manager settings, [04:51] check (show tips) [04:52] check (show tooltips)* [04:54] Hudsonkem: Thanks. I understand that will turn them off, but I was wondering if others had experienced a bug where they don't behave as they should [04:54] jbermudes: I've not seen that [04:55] It might be because I upgraded from 15.04. Maybe I'll try a fresh install, because I also noticed the upgrade made my taskbar take forever to load after logging in [04:55] I like tooltips so wouldn't want to turn them off [04:55] Right, I like them too [04:55] I just don't like them sometimes being there permanently :P [04:55] I upgraded [04:56] I doubt it's that [04:56] jbermudes, ^^ got it [04:56] you could find the plasma config in ~/.config and rename that [04:56] valorie dont be, upgrade dist may cause many issues as u can wonder [04:57] perhhaps there is a wonky config left over from 15.04 [04:57] maybe :). [04:57] Hudsonkem: sure, but that is usually left-over configs and such [04:57] one can always test with a new user [04:58] I have had bad upgrades, yes [04:58] :V ya god listen u :), try it jbermudes, [05:00] but in general, apt gives good ways to fix partial installs and such [05:03] jbermudes>> mv ~/.config ~/.config_bkp [05:04] I'll try that out. Thanks :) [05:14] ooo, I wouldn't have moved the whole .config folder, but that can work.....

I started it from muon as per wiki. left it running over night. this morning machine has hung. a reboot gets kernel panic unabel to mount root fs [07:58] anyone know 1?how to recover it please [08:00] londoh: can you get a konsole or does control + alt + f2 or f3 etc. work? [08:03] if so, can you do `sudo do-release-upgrade` ? [08:04] just paste that into your console using control-shift-v [08:04] no its completley hung [08:04] without the backticks [08:05] so no control + alt + f anything? [08:05] sometimes one will work, when others will no [08:05] t [08:05] and so i hit power button. now have kernel panic and "unable to mount root rs" [08:05] :( [08:06] power button was not a good move [08:06] probably now your only hope is to do a new install [08:06] i just searched the forum and it failed updating libsane drivers. others have the problem. [08:06] a failed upgrade is possible to fix, but not once restarted [08:07] oh bugger :-( [08:07] so do you have a DVD drive in it? [08:07] yea i do [08:07] and can burn a DVD or USB somehow? [08:07] !liveusb [08:07] For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent [08:08] usb is best, I think [08:08] because fastest [08:08] yea I have a couple other machines here. am downloading iso now. [08:08] surely there is some way to recover this failed install? [08:09] well, it is possible that with the liveUSB, you can fix it from there [08:09] is it worthwhile to do so? [08:09] I mean, it's a challenge [08:10] well the machine has a spare drive with rsynced /home backup but even so its a hassle to reinstall everything [08:10] !recovery [08:10] If your system fails to boot normally, it may be useful to boot it into recovery mode. For instructions, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveryMode [08:10] pfff [08:10] tried it - same kernel panic / me panic [08:11] right, that wasn't what I was looking for [08:11] there are special live ISOs for recovery [08:12] recorvery iso for kubunto or generic? [08:12] http://www.sysresccd.org/Download is the one I've heard of most [08:12] generic [08:12] ok i'll give it a shot [08:12] the thing is, if you have your ~/home safe [08:13] then all you need do with a new install is add a few applications [08:13] I know that there is some futzing [08:13] but really, installing takes so little time [08:13] but if you want to do the work, rescue might be interesting [08:14] yea I kinda know that but even so it takes a few days to get it all back up [08:14] it mys work machine - stoopid thing to do to trust and upgrade at bedtime :-( doh! [08:15] :( [08:15] well, usually it works [08:15] my upgrade was totally boring [08:15] I have to go out now for an hour. I'll elect to try the rescue remedy first. [08:15] best of luck, londoh [08:15] this kinda excitment i can do without at 8 am monday morning ;-) [08:15] later [08:20] londoh: It probably is only a failed Grub configuration update.

[11:30] basically, I want to name virtual desktops, and have something like Krunner go to that specific virtual desktop based on that name. [11:30] is that somehow doable? [11:40] freeroute: it is doable./ Check activities for the placing. And - the desktop naming is a feature that exists for a long time already [11:41] Smurphy: well I've named my virtual desktops accordingly, but selecting them based on text search? Do I have to use activities for that? [11:43] Why not just make Ctrl-F1, Ctrl-F2 etc. ? [11:43] selecting based on text search, no. Doesn't work. [11:46] because I only have 12 function keys :p [11:46] lol... [11:46] Ctrl-Fx is already hard-coded into it., [11:47] for example, I have browser windows based on topic: Research, linux, reddit general, crypto, etc. [11:47] and personally I'd rather have different workspaces cut out for those topics. [11:48] oh I thought I could change that shortcut to for example do Super-1, Super-2 etc. [11:48] is it hardcoded? [11:48] Ctrl-F1 etc., yes. [11:49] oh... so I can't change those shortcut? :S [11:56] freeroute: well your browser windows should show up in the search, and you will be offered to be taken there regardless of which virtual desktop they are on [11:56] so as long as you know the browser window name, that should work just the same as assigning the desktop itself a name, no? [11:57] a lot of the times however the browser window title does not necessarily reflect the topic though [12:00] Hey all [12:17] ello :) [12:23] thanks to the kind folks who stepped in earlier re 15.04->15.10 upgrade issue (valorie and a smurph maybe ;-) ) - the little boot-repair utility fixed most of it, then bit of messing about with dkms and nvidia driver. all good now, on 15.10.

[12:37] BluesKaj: I like KDE desktop but my hardwares is sucks [12:37] ok , but which kubu8ntu release? [12:37] which kubuntu??? I don't understand. can you explain more [12:37] how can I find out which kubuntu [12:37] ? [12:38] amovah: Open a terminal and run 'lsb_release -a' [12:38] I'm not in KDE desktop now [12:38] amovah: As long as it it somekind of ubuntu it doesn't matter. [12:39] so, how can I remove completly kde desktop? [12:40] sudo apt remove kubuntu-desktop && plasma-desktop [12:40] oops not that [12:41] sudo apt remove kubuntu-desktop && sudo apt remove plasma-desktop [12:41] should I run sudo apt-get autoremove command ? [12:41] after that, yes. [12:42] and I'm using Ubuntu 15.10 [12:43] amovah, do you have unity or gnome desktop installed [12:43] ? [12:43] Which desktop do you run ?

[21:58] ok found my problem, the env QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME was set === kubuntu is now known as Guest41811 [22:15] how do I get to the OS from grub recovery === victor is now known as Guest49316 [22:17] finetundra: "to the OS"? === Guest49316 is now known as Dolmanc [22:30] "open file" dialog doesn't see usb drives in some programs, how do I fix that? kubuntu 15.10 [22:32] Eluus: that depends on the app itself, IIRC you can customize at some level the "open file" dialog window, or even provide your own, but you can always just got to /media/ folder to find your device [22:33] bprompt: thanks! [22:34] bprompt: do you know where I can customize the open file dialog window? [22:36] Eluus: well... by "you", I meant the developer writing the application and using an "open file" dialog [22:36] ic [22:36] not all programs open the same dialog [22:37] right [22:37] I wish all of them used KDialog [22:37] some use GTK dialogs, some use KDE's or QTs, and some may write their own like Java apps [23:54] HOLY COW!!!! Who would have thought that appmenu-qt5 could cause that much problems??? For days I could not figure out why the &^$*^ I had lost icons, why I couldn;t change Icon themes and my widgets looked like GTK. But thanks to stefan____ who discovered that QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME was set, I discovered that appmenu-qt5 was the cause of these issues [23:56] I've uninstalled that package, and now my icons (breeze) are reappearing, the widgts (breeze) look normal and everyhihng can be reconfigured again.
