[11:07] How to install dropbox correctly on Kubuntu 15.10; it doesn't work... can't find the dropbox icon, moreover kfilebox can't help me [11:07] thanks [11:22] isnt dropbox one of those legacy apps that doesnt have a tray icon in modern plasma [11:22] yep [11:23] c0upe: https://www.dropboxforum.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/201908279-Systray-icon-not-showing-in-KDE-Plasma-5-2 [11:38] Hiya and thanks for the awesomest Desktop OS Kubuntu15.10 GNU/Linukka [11:39] I think I just made my life harder [11:40] I accidentally actually 'sudo rm -rf /home/' when I was meaning to write 'sudo rm -rf home/' [11:40] and kling-klang alert bells didn't ring when it said it gonna be neverminding about lost+found [11:41] well [11:41] nothing that isn't on other systems was in that /home [11:42] but if someone knows this is actually the system that can stay on irc for hours and hours instead of getting "CPU critical hot"-peak reading [11:43] I guess I'd be looking for "How to undelete 'sudo rm -rf'-ed directories on GNU/Linukka?"

I'm uploading from another machine and downloaded necessary dirs onto place here [12:43] Hiya BluesKaj [12:44] hey jubo2 [12:44] I actually managed to accidentally 'sudo rm -rf /home' today lol [12:45] Should not do this stuff before 2nd mug of coffee [12:45] nothing of value was lost [12:45] the home had been recreated from .tar.gz:s of dirs in homedir just like a few weeks ago [12:48] I already expanded .kde and .local from the other machine [12:48] I hope this fixes my irc colors with restart [12:49] This black type on white background just ain't makin' it feel like irc === ilya is now known as Guest42209 [13:23] uhh.. [13:23] grub rescue> [13:23] again [13:23] eakk [13:23] Removed unused filled up 40GB from 120GB SSD [13:23] I'm not sure what you're doing to your installs [13:23] and expanded the NTFS to fill the whole disk [13:24] hateball: That one machine has hardware issues, prlly heating sensor is broken [13:24] or something is seriously wrong with the Volt/Amp control [13:25] I need to rebuild grub config [13:25] I promis I save it to ~/Documents/commands/commands.txt this time [13:26] This netbook will not go down every 20 minutes [13:26] and got mi relevant home dir dirs here [13:26] I try to search engine [13:30] I'm not sure where the grub be located [13:30] I removed the Linux SWAP and the /-partition [13:30] and grew the NTFS disk to fill whole station [13:30] I now in LiveCD Kubuntu [13:32] Uhh.. [13:33] I download the Windows7.iso and use that to fix the booting [13:33] there is this 20MB partition iirc in the start of the disk [13:33] so I could mount... uhh that disk and fix grub [13:34] that or I let Windows7.iso write over it [13:34] I gather these are my options [13:37] msft download complains it is an OEM [13:37] and that bordel we call http://lenovorecovery.com has sent me the wrong disks 3 times [13:38] prrly coz some think he saw something like people on the internets and blamed me [13:39] well.. I need grub to detect there is 1 NTFS partition on the disk and it is bootable and it should just boot it [13:39] can I do that from grub-shell [13:39] or what should I do? [13:42] I try the wrong recovery disks [13:44] nope. don't want it to wipe out the existing windows [13:44] as the lenovorecovery.com is hellbent on sending me wrong disks to keep my circumstances precarious === archish is now known as learner_kid === learner_kid is now known as archish === archish is now known as learner_kid === dv__ is now known as dv_ === ilya is now known as ashavskiy [14:01] I see if I can make a rescue disk with the different Windows7 version I have on this hard drive === Macer_ is now known as Macer [14:31] Hi all. Is kidle_inject part of linux kernel or plasma5? [14:33] found solution: installed lilo [14:37] hey so im trying to install kubuntu and when I get to wireless I hit continue and it is just hanging there [14:40] and now its frozen lol [14:40] So what happened to the Kubuntu (plasma) pastebin widget? [14:41] Was pretty sueful for quicklyy pasting code or images online [14:41] *useful [14:47] hazamonzo: probably not ported to Plasma 5 [14:48] soee: Aww shame :( [15:19] I installed a temp gauge for Windows7 [15:19] under low load the CPU does not overheat [15:19] but in Kubuntu it always overheats, stress or no stress [15:19] The chip is Arrandale 1st gen i5 [15:20] the Windows temp gadget shows the current CPU Frequency and I see it runs ~ 1400MHz most of the time [15:20] I am guessing there is some voltage control or frequency control not working with Kubuntu [15:25] How about a dusty fan? [15:25] Or a broken fan. === Finetundar is now known as Fineutndra === Fineutndra is now known as finetundra [15:50] I recently upgraded to Kubuntu 15.10, from 15.04 and now when I go into Korganizer and go to Settings -> Configure Date and Time, it says: "Could not start control module for date and time format", and the only timezone I have available in Korganizer is "UTC" (twice) and "Floating", so all my event times are incorrect. Any ideas how I can fix this? [15:51] ipso, in the terminal run, sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata [15:52] BluesKaj_, did that, and restarted korganizer, no change. [15:53] When I run: kcmshell4 --list, it doesn't show kcm_clock, which is my understanding what the date/time control module is called... [15:55] ipso, which kubuntu/plasma ? [15:55] hi [15:55] BluesKaj_, plasma-framework 5.15.0-0ubuntu1 [15:56] BluesKaj_, Kubuntu 15.10 [16:02] ipso, seems the the kcmshell hasn't been integrated with plasma 5 yet, and 4 doesn't work here either === steve___ is now known as Guest94875 === morgan is now known as Guest83440 [17:09] KDE Frameworks 5.15.0 [17:09] Qt 5.4.2 (built against 5.4.2) [17:09] The xcb windowing system [17:09] oops [17:10] Oh, waeel KDE is stuck on the gtk theme and I am unable to change it to anything else other than changing the gtk theme. [17:12] I went so far as to delete the .config and .kde folders and still the the me is stuck on the gtk meta theme. === descilla is now known as Guest52310 === max is now known as Guest60848 === EvilRoey is now known as ThankfulRoey [17:47] testing out Quassel IRC [18:27] It would seem that Windows7 knows how to clock-down the CPU to stop it from overheating but Kubuntu7 doesn't [18:30] On Windows7 the CPU core temps are like 65-70C which seems acceptable [18:30] On Kubuntu the temps just go to high-nineties and then the system shuts itself down [18:31] There must be some program I can install that will help the CPU stay cool === tsimonq2 is now known as simonquigley === simonquigley is now known as tsimonq2 === tsimonq2 is now known as tsq2 === tsq2 is now known as tsimonq2 === tsimonq2 is now known as walterlapchynski === walterlapchynski is now known as tsimonq2 [18:49] How do I get to the Widgets? === descilla is now known as Guest90072 [18:59] Hi === osama is now known as s000m225 [19:21] ok.. finally found a widget that displays CPU speed dynamically [19:21] gonna boot that overheating system to Kubuntu soon and see what's burning up the chip [19:36] aaagggghh.. Cannot add widgets to the panel [19:37] I just want to see why with GNU/Linukka the system grossly overheats and gives wildly fluxing temperature values [19:39] now I got the widget to install [19:39] after rebooting [19:41] seems to vary between 2-2.5GHz [19:42] the temperature sensor must be broken [19:42] wil 20C flux [19:42] *wild [19:43] I should prlly just try to turn off the shut-down-on-overheating [19:50] I'm looking at the temperature printout on this other machine and it fluxes only few centigrade [19:50] It doesn't make sense that temp can go up and down 15-20 degrees in just a few moments [19:53] in Windows the clock rate is lower by 25% and temps vary only few degrees / s [19:58] this is really annoying behaviour that something is giving these spikes in the temps when in GNU/Linukka and that causes the repeating shutdown === heinkel_111 is now known as heinkel_flying [20:20] My computer it seems would be best suited to grilling raclette cheeze [20:21] When in Windows7 the frequency is around 1.5-2GHz and the temp is 65-70C [20:21] When in Kubuntu the frequency is like 2-2.5GHz and the temp is something between 80-100C [20:22] and when in Kubuntu the sensor sends really wildly varying data [20:22] like 10-20C moves in a blink of an eye [20:22] I'd really like to use Kubuntu [20:23] but if it just keeps on shutting down because the stupid lying / broken sensor sends a random peak that hits the 105C limit [20:28] how do I check a physical disk for errors that end up in error when trying to partition the disk? [20:34] trying to create partitions on it fails with IOERROR === heinkel_flying is now known as heinkel_111 === ralsina is now known as ralsina_ === ralsina_ is now known as ralsina [20:42] !smartmontools | jubo2 [20:42] !smarttools | jubo2 [20:42] !smartools | jubo2 [20:42] hmmm [20:43] shoot, bot is drawing a blank, as usual [20:44] jubo2: do a S.M.A.R.T. check on the disk with "smarmontools", they're in the repositories [20:44] * jubo2 gets his Phalanx CIWS [20:44] bprompt: ok [20:47] I installed it bprompt but typing 'smartmontools' doesn't find it [20:48] didn't see it in the start-menu either [20:50] hmm [20:50] jubo2: smartctl iirc.... try autocomplete "smart" [20:50] ok [20:53] "no errors logged" when running 'smartctl -a /dev/sdb' [20:54] then /dev/sdb may be ok :) [20:54] jubo2: what makes you think the hdd is bad anyway? [20:55] coz Gparted will not partition it [20:55] The details say just "IO error" when it tries to sync the disk [20:56] and you're running kubuntu off /dev/sda? [20:56] yes [20:56] so hmmm... ok... toss /dev/sdb on the trash bin, no? [20:56] :) [20:57] s/on/in/ [20:57] yeah [20:57] seems like a long time ago wasted 100€ [20:57] 100€ ? hmm is that a 1Tbs one? [20:58] yes [20:58] a long time ago [20:58] how long ago anyway? 3years ago? [20:58] I think I never got it to work properly [20:58] something like that [20:58] a long long, couldn't be that long, 1Tbs hdd aren't that old [20:59] jubo2: got any data in it you'd like to salvage? [20:59] nope [21:00] Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities have crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; you shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense. ~~ Ralph Waldo Emerson ~~ [21:00] ... and wake up to the same broken HW tomorrow [21:00] hehe [21:01] jubo2: nope, you won't, if you toss it in the trash bin :), you'll wake up with the working HW only, the non-working one will be in the trash [21:02] jubo2: but hmmmm if smartmontools found nothing wrong.... it may not be bad anyway.... about gparted.... tried some other tools? like kde partition manager yet? [21:02] or even parted [21:02] nope [21:02] how would that be different [21:03] actually I'm confused.. KDE partition manager and Gparted have the same logo in the menu [21:03] well.. maybe I try the KDE partition manager now [21:03] jubo2: just in case is some old stale session files from gparted that was doing it === heinkel_111 is now known as heinkel_flying [21:04] I've had gparted, at times, choke on something, because.. the hdd was in use or a cancel something prematurely, so I rebooted, to start a fresh gparted session, and worked [21:27] Huh, my officemate just upgraded to 15.10, and now Dolphin's file sort order is all wonky (it seems to ignore leading dots and capitalization differences for the sake of sorting). [21:27] In fact, even `ls -la` seems affected, so this is probably some universal default set somewhere for LC_ALL or such? [21:28] I can't seem to find anything to that effect in /etc, though. [21:34] Also, what's the equivalent configuration option for SDDM to LightDM's xserver-allow-tcp=true or GDM's DisallowTCP=true ? (He needs to do X11 forwarding over a telnet connection, alas.) [21:41] ...in fact, where in the world is the sddm.conf file now? [21:41] * keithzg has so many questions! [21:41] Aha, "On systems controlled by systemd, everything should work out of the box, since SDDM defaults to using systemd-logind for session management." === heinkel_flying is now known as heinkel_111 [21:47] And apparently the ability to change this was added in https://github.com/sddm/sddm/issues/325 . . . which, uhh, probably didn't make it into Wily . . . crap. [21:54] Yeah.. This Kubuntu partition manager seems slightly more advanced ( in the GUI ) than Gparted [21:56] jubo2: Yeah, it's progressed quite nicely over the years; I remember not too long ago (it seems, at least) that it still lacked a lot that GParted had so I'd always fire up GParted instead, these days it's generally the opposite. [22:08] Looks like I can just strip "-nolisten tcp" out of the X11 server arguments list if I remove line 155 in src/daemon/XorgDisplayServer.cpp in the version that ships with Wily. Time for some apt-get source ;) [22:25] Hmm. Still doesn't work. [22:35] Well I'm stumped. We've recompiled SDDM to leave out "-nolisten tcp", we've removed it from /etc/X11/xinit/xserverrc, we've tried even just startx as root to get a session that way . . . no dice. [23:04] hi guys, something broke my kubuntu today/yesterday [23:05] was wondering if someone could help me trouble shoot [23:05] basically the window manager seems to work, but I think plasma is freezing up badly.. [23:05] clock hasn't updated in 30min now and I can't open start menu, or any hot keys [23:06] rebooting fixes it for like 5min and then it's back to the way it currently is [23:06] i have /usr/bin/plasmashell --shut-up running using about 300MB of ram, not sure if that's normal [23:08] Alright, well, got the `ls -la` issue fixed with a .profile line to define LANG=C.UTF-8 and that seems to fix Dolphin's sorting order too. Ignoring the telnet X11 issue for now, GNHS doesn't seem to work . . . [23:08] Error 203 on new plasma themes, new mouse cursors, etc. [23:09] GHNS, I guess I mean (huh, I always thought it was Get New Hot Stuff rather than Get Hot New Stuff). [23:35] kaddi: What version of Kubuntu are you running? [23:35] 15.04 [23:36] kaddi: Do you have the backports PPA enabled? [23:37] no, don't think [23:37] It may well be worth the upgrade to 15.10, Plasma 5 has been bugfixed a fair bit since 15.04 came out. Myself at least I've noticed it's far more stable---although only once I dropped the fglrx drivers. [23:38] plasmashell is v 5.2.2 [23:38] hmm, ok [23:39] The version in 15.10 is 5.4.2, so two minor releases and some bugfix-only releases since then! [23:39] yeah, but 15.04 should still be supported, no? [23:39] i'm not sure i want to upgrade over a broken system.. that sounds like a bad idea >.> [23:39] Well, a few things. [23:40] Firstly, you can definitely try and debug this a bit more. Personally I'd suggest creating another user (thus a completely new profile and user configs without having to modify yours at all) and logging in as them and seeing if you get the same issues. [23:41] yeah, fair point.. I should do that [23:44] haha, well can't get the switching user screen to appear >.> [23:54] seems to be a usre issue, test worked fine, but switching back was impossible [23:54] cause everything froze [23:54] rebooted, now my screen resolution has been reset to default.. gonna leave it at that for now to see if that will keep it from crashing [23:54] :p [23:56] kaddi: Interesting. Your main config files for plasma are all in ~/.config, so you might try backing those up and removing them to see what it is about your own user config that's crashing things versus the test user you created. [23:56] yeah, i will because I can't change the resolution anymore.. i wonder if it's not actually related to the graphic drivers [23:57] kaddi: I was going to mention, while 15.04 is still *arguably* supported, non-LTS *buntu releases only get 9 months of support anyways; 15.04's EOL is January! [23:57] time sure does fly >.> [23:57] Heh yup. [23:57] yeah, I'll upgrade soon enough, need to find a free week-end, soooo january? :p [23:59] ok, looks like the plasmahsell just froze up again. [23:59] bbiab
