| BluesKaj | Howdy folks | 13:21 |
| hazamonzo | Hi BluesKaj | 13:30 |
| BluesKaj | Hi hazamonzo | 13:30 |
| Smurphy | Morning folks :) | 13:31 |
| BluesKaj | 'Morning Smurphy | 13:32 |
| hazamonzo | I have a question as there is some life here today :) | 13:33 |
| hazamonzo | How might i go about adding the option... "extract here" when i right click an archive? | 13:33 |
| hazamonzo | At the moment i have to open files with ark instead of the quick, right click, extract | 13:34 |
| hazamonzo | Or even the select files, add to archive? | 13:34 |
| hazamonzo | Small things i know but super useful | 13:34 |
| hazamonzo | Any thoughts BluesKaj? | 13:35 |
| BluesKaj | hazamonzo, checking | 13:36 |
| hazamonzo | BluesKaj: Ahh thanks! | 13:36 |
| BluesKaj | hazamonzo, lots of services missing from dolphin , but even the available downloads are lacking. However I use unp to extract in the terminal by opening the terminal in the folder the compressed file is located and doing: unp nameofpackage.tar.gz, for example | 13:42 |
| BluesKaj | unp is available in the repos | 13:43 |
| BluesKaj | !unp | 13:44 |
| BluesKaj | !info unp | 13:44 |
| ubottu | unp (source: unp): unpack (almost) everything with one command. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.0~pre7+nmu1 (wily), package size 16 kB, installed size 133 kB | 13:44 |
| hazamonzo | BluesKaj: Understood. Its a shame that the UI is a little behind (although it looks VERY pretty) | 13:45 |
| hazamonzo | BluesKaj: I notived that the pastebin widget was also missing these days. Was very useful | 13:46 |
| BluesKaj | hazamonzo, well i think useability has been somewhat sacrficed for looks, but that's afunction of transference from plasma4 to plasma 5. I think the services will eventually catch up | 13:48 |
| hazamonzo | BluesKaj: Yeah that makes sense. Im happy enough that most of my new laptop worked with 15.10 | 13:48 |
| hazamonzo | The ONLY things i had issues with which i gave up on was the SSD and the... ummm.. Nvidua / Intel card swapping | 13:49 |
| hazamonzo | I was able to set it to the intel one and leave it at that | 13:49 |
| BluesKaj | Optimus eh? | 13:49 |
| hazamonzo | BluesKaj: Yeah something like that | 13:49 |
| hazamonzo | Both cards worked but when i rebooted, with or without power ect it was a coin toss to is the driver loaded for the right card | 13:50 |
| BluesKaj | yeah it's a pita on linux. unfortunately | 13:50 |
| hazamonzo | I tried to find a pattern in about... 50 reboots :D | 13:50 |
| BluesKaj | I thought most users went with the nvidia-prime setup on Optimus | 13:51 |
| hazamonzo | BluesKaj: Oh i tried all sorts of things. half of which i cannot remember | 13:51 |
| * BluesKaj nods | 13:52 | |
| hazamonzo | In the end i was able to install at least (using some grub command during installation), then get the Nvidia driver detected and finally, switch it to Intel instead of Nvidia | 13:52 |
| hazamonzo | Instead of letting linux decide what card to use | 13:52 |
| hazamonzo | At least... thats what i *think* I did :) | 13:53 |
| BluesKaj | hazamonzo, think some blacklisting the intel gpu in favour of the nvidia since it's more capable handling video loads | 13:54 |
| Odur | hazamonzo: regarding servicemenus in dolphin. Try this: "sudo ln -s /usr/share/kde4/servicetypes/konqpopupmenuplugin.desktop /usr/share/kservicetypes5/" | 13:54 |
| hazamonzo | BluesKaj: I totally agree although its something i will have to look at later. Im in the "if it isn't broken then don't fix it" stage due to other work commitments :) | 13:56 |
| BluesKaj | Odur, thanks! That worked here :-) | 13:56 |
| hazamonzo | Odur: Can i ask what that does before i go ahead and run it? I have to be careful i don't break anything while im working :) | 13:56 |
| hazamonzo | BluesKaj: hehehe, you just jump right on in there eh? :D | 13:56 |
| Odur | just making a link from a file to another place, making the extract here appear again | 13:57 |
| hazamonzo | Odur: So pretty safe then? | 13:57 |
| Odur | Yep. There is a bug report here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dolphin/+bug/1499530 | 13:57 |
| BluesKaj | hazamonzo, I'm a home user, no worries about breaking stuff since I use 14.04 as my backup OS | 13:57 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1499530 in dolphin (Ubuntu) "Dolphin context menu is missing "Compress"/"Extract" entries" [Medium,Confirmed] | 13:57 |
| hazamonzo | Odur: Thank you!! Worked a treat :) | 13:58 |
| Odur | hazamonzo: Should be fixed when we get KDE Framework 15.16.0. | 14:00 |
| hazamonzo | Odur: Its only a small thing but its useful. | 14:00 |
| hazamonzo | Now if i can get my pastebin / imagebin widget back i'll be set! :D | 14:00 |
| Odur | Very useful :) | 14:00 |
| hazamonzo | I loved the fact you can print-screen and drag directly to the widget to paste the image | 14:01 |
| hazamonzo | without having to save to disk, open a website, upload the image ect ect | 14:01 |
| hazamonzo | BluesKaj: Odur: Thanks again guys. I better get back to work | 14:03 |
| Odur | You're welcome :) | 14:03 |
| BluesKaj | hazamonzo, have fun :-) | 14:06 |

| isolater | well this is pretty nice, new to kubuntu | 17:57 |
| isolater | what do you like about kubuntu? what is better than say, Unbuntu? | 17:58 |
| finetundra | Ah well, honestly kubuntu has felt easier to customize | 17:59 |
| finetundra | Though I've only used it with KDE 4, so I don't know how it feels with KDE 5 | 17:59 |
| finetundra | isolater: why did you choose kubuntu, if I may ask? | 18:01 |

| mok | hello, what is the password for live user kubuntu 15.10? | 21:56 |
| mok | hitting enter on live session just resets to login (doesn't say login failed though | 21:57 |
| mok | ) | 21:57 |
| bprompt | mok: there isn't any that I know of, I think .... it "might" be just "kubuntu" or "ubuntu", from older iso's | 22:00 |
| === bonzo is now known as maauso | ||
| mok | bprompt: thanks for reply. kubuntu or ubuntu don't work. It's a pity, I would like to try before I install! :) | 22:03 |
| bprompt | mok: it shouldn't ask you for a password for a live session though | 22:04 |
| bprompt | if it's asking for one, it seems that the iso burning didn't go well | 22:04 |
| mok | bprompt: I would have thought same. starts with login screen with live session user as username | 22:06 |
| mok | clicking on login just cycles back to login screen | 22:06 |
| mok | I didn't burn, dd'd onto usbstick | 22:07 |
| bprompt | mok: I've seen that on broken files live sessions, like the user didn't shutdown the session properly and did a force-shutdown by pressing the power button | 22:07 |
| bprompt | but otherwise, it wouldn't ask you for a password for a live session | 22:07 |
| mok | ok, thanks for the advice | 22:08 |
| mok | I said I'd be mad and just install of that usb disk anyway. I think that was a mistake, now a prompt with my username, input password, press enter, recycles to login screen. Nooooooooooooooooooooooo! | 22:27 |
| bprompt | same liveusb session login screen? | 22:28 |
| mok | no, my hdd login session | 22:31 |
| bprompt | and you entered the right login and password? | 22:34 |
| bprompt | hmm | 22:35 |
| bprompt | mok: did you do a full hdd install from the usb stick that was asking you for a login at the live session? | 22:35 |
| mok | yep | 22:37 |
| mok | rebooted from the usb disk and went into install rather than live session, went through the install onto hdd, removed usb disk, rebooted | 22:37 |
| bprompt | well then | 22:38 |
| bprompt | hehhe | 22:38 |
| bprompt | mok: so you have a broken live usb session, and reasonable enough, it gave you a broken hdd installation, :/ | 22:39 |
| bprompt | mok: your hmmm reburn the .iso to usb | 22:39 |
| mok | shouldda known betta! ;) | 22:39 |
| bprompt | or redownload the iso, assuming it might be corrupted, possibly is not, but who knows, likely the issue is the burning, something happened while burning to to the usb stick | 22:40 |
| mok | md5sum matches, so it was a good download. Dunno what could have happened during dd. Anyway, back to drawing board. Thanks for your time bprompt | 22:43 |
| bprompt | well | 22:43 |
| bprompt | mok: how did you burn it? I mean... what did you issue for "dd"? | 22:43 |
| mok | just sudo dd if=kub...etc of=/dev/sdc | 22:44 |
| bprompt | looks good | 22:47 |
| teknova | trying to find out what is the most stable os for running the most recent stable builds of digikam...... | 22:51 |
| teknova | thoughts? | 22:51 |
| bprompt | I've heard of some saying 15.10 is decently stable enough, not sure if it has digikam though | 22:51 |
| teknova | 15.10 kubuntu is troublesome in the least | 22:52 |
| bprompt | teknova: well, there's always the 14.04 lts | 22:52 |
| teknova | its crash seg faulted twice on me and thats after having login loop problems with the live cd | 22:52 |
| teknova | well has anyone tried 4.14 digikam in 14.04 kubuntu? | 22:53 |
| teknova | im running mint 17.2 cinnimon as my main system but i was havinh seg fault problems with digikam there too | 22:54 |
| teknova | i really like digikam at a tagging and sorting tool and im even happy to install a whole os just for it | 22:55 |
| bprompt | hehe | 22:56 |
| bprompt | I don't run it myself, for one | 22:57 |
| bprompt | teknova: what kde version is cinnamon 17.2 running anyway? maybe your kde version is the same as kubuntu's 15.10 for all we know, thus the seg faulting | 22:57 |
| teknova | well i am running them both from the phillip5 ppa | 22:59 |
| teknova | kde i think is 4.14 | 22:59 |
| teknova | kde i think is 4.1? | 22:59 |
| bprompt | well... not exactly, 4.1 !== 4.14 | 23:00 |
| teknova | 4.1 was a typo | 23:00 |
| teknova | 4.14 | 23:00 |
| teknova | 4.14 is the last one they are suppose to do for mint | 23:00 |
| teknova | because of the lack of newest kde | 23:01 |
| teknova | i think | 23:01 |
| bprompt | well.. for the time being I gather | 23:02 |
| teknova | 15.10 comes with digikam 14.12 and id be happy to use that but it kept closing unexpecteply plus this does not seem to be the most for my hardware | 23:04 |
| teknova | most stable* | 23:04 |
| teknova | the seg faults im getting in 15.10 are when close system windows aand such | 23:04 |
| teknova | somthing about qt5 | 23:05 |
| teknova | verizon really? | 23:06 |
| teknova | i hopes its cause you have no other choice | 23:06 |
| teknova | sorry thet my corpopate touretts.. | 23:07 |
| bprompt | teknova: hmmm give a whirl I gather to 14.04 | 23:07 |
| bprompt | eheh | 23:07 |
| teknova | ok will do | 23:07 |
| teknova | my ssd hate me right now anyway | 23:07 |
| teknova | kde mint followed by kubuntu 15.10 followed by 14.04 lol | 23:08 |
| mok | teknova: http://scribblesandsnaps.com/2014/12/12/making-digikam-stable-on-ubuntu-14-04/ | 23:15 |
