[06:47] <ovidiu-florin> mhall119: monthly Kubuntu hangout
[06:48] <ovidiu-florin> mhall119: we discussed current tasks status, and added some tasks, removed some tasks
[11:18] <noj2009> hello, is kubuntu working well with the tochscreen of a lenovo-by300 convertible?
[11:20] <noj2009> nobody want to answer?
[12:31] <dv__> the recent documents in the kicker menu dont do anything if I click on them
[12:31] <dv__> the klipper's context menu does not allow me to clear the history
[12:32] <dv__> and, the calendar view (when I click on the clock display on the task bar) does not highlight any holidays anymore
[12:32] <dv__> these seem like serious steps back, dont they
[13:21] <BluesKaj> Howdy folks
[13:30] <hazamonzo> Hi BluesKaj
[13:30] <BluesKaj> Hi hazamonzo
[13:31] <Smurphy> Morning folks :)
[13:32] <BluesKaj> 'Morning Smurphy
[13:33] <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?
[13:34] <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
[13:35] <hazamonzo> Any thoughts BluesKaj?
[13:36] <BluesKaj> hazamonzo, checking
[13:36] <hazamonzo> BluesKaj: Ahh thanks!
[13:42] <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
[13:43] <BluesKaj> unp is available in the repos
[13:44] <BluesKaj> !unp
[13:44] <BluesKaj> !info unp
[13:45] <hazamonzo> BluesKaj: Understood. Its a shame that the UI is a little behind (although it looks VERY pretty)
[13:46] <hazamonzo> BluesKaj: I notived that the pastebin widget was also missing these days. Was very useful
[13:48] <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
[13:49] <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
[13:50] <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
[13:51] <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
[13:52]  * 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
[13:53] <hazamonzo> At least... thats what i *think* I did :)
[13:54] <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/"
[13:56] <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
[13:57] <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
[13:58] <hazamonzo> Odur: Thank you!! Worked a treat :)
[14:00] <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 :)
[14:01] <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
[14:03] <hazamonzo> BluesKaj: Odur: Thanks again guys. I better get back to work
[14:03] <Odur> You're welcome :)
[14:06] <BluesKaj> hazamonzo, have fun :-)
[14:08] <hazamonzo> :)
[17:02] <finetundra> Hey folks, howo do I add skins to amarok that I get from KDE look?
[17:52] <isolater> well
[17:53] <finetundra> isolater: well what?
[17:57] <isolater> well this is pretty nice, new to kubuntu
[17:58] <isolater> what do you like about kubuntu? what is better than say, Unbuntu?
[17:59] <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
[18:01] <finetundra> isolater: why did you choose kubuntu, if I may ask?
[18:02] <isolater> Well I am testing it really, running in a VM right now.  It looks like it has some really interesting things.
[18:03] <isolater> Seems easy to get started with so far
[20:49] <master_> I would appreciate some help with my quassel irc client
[20:51] <master_> Next to my identity I have (+iwxcr).  I don't know what this means
[20:56] <rarog> доброго всем
[20:56] <mparillo> !ru
[21:56] <mok> hello, what is the password for live user kubuntu 15.10?
[21:57] <mok> hitting enter on live session just resets to login (doesn't say login failed though
[21:57] <mok> )
[22:00] <bprompt> mok:    there isn't any that I know of, I think .... it "might" be just "kubuntu" or "ubuntu", from older iso's
[22:03] <mok> bprompt: thanks for reply. kubuntu or ubuntu don't work. It's a pity, I would like to try before I install! :)
[22:04] <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
[22:06] <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
[22:07] <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
[22:08] <mok> ok, thanks for the advice
[22:27] <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!
[22:28] <bprompt> same liveusb session login screen?
[22:31] <mok> no, my hdd login session
[22:34] <bprompt> and you entered the right login and password?
[22:35] <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?
[22:37] <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
[22:38] <bprompt> well then
[22:38] <bprompt> hehhe
[22:39] <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! ;)
[22:40] <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
[22:43] <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"?
[22:44] <mok> just sudo dd if=kub...etc of=/dev/sdc
[22:47] <bprompt> looks good
[22:51] <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
[22:52] <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
[22:53] <teknova> well has anyone tried 4.14 digikam in 14.04 kubuntu?
[22:54] <teknova> im running mint 17.2 cinnimon as my main system but i was havinh seg fault problems with digikam there too
[22:55] <teknova> i really like digikam at a tagging and sorting tool and im even happy to install a whole os just for it
[22:56] <bprompt> hehe
[22:57] <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
[22:59] <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?
[23:00] <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
[23:01] <teknova> because of the lack of newest kde
[23:01] <teknova> i think
[23:02] <bprompt> well.. for the time being I gather
[23:04] <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
[23:05] <teknova> somthing about qt5
[23:06] <teknova> verizon really?
[23:06] <teknova> i hopes its cause you have no other choice
[23:07] <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
[23:08] <teknova> kde mint followed by kubuntu 15.10 followed by 14.04 lol
[23:15] <mok> teknova: http://scribblesandsnaps.com/2014/12/12/making-digikam-stable-on-ubuntu-14-04/
[23:16] <mok> doh! he's gone. I better go too, too tired! :)
