If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [10:21] Thanks... The thing is I am just a day old on Linux so please take it easy on me... I have installed latest version of Kubuntu and the problem I am having is while watching videos on browsers, after 5 minutes of not moving a cursor, I automatically get logged out. I checked the power option and made the necessary changes but the issue still persists. Surprisingly, even when I get logged out, the Audio (of the video) still plays at th [10:22] Asach: is this on 14.04 or 15.10 ? [10:23] hateball: I am on 15.10, I also referred to the userguide before coming here [10:25] Asach: I was just asking, details always help. I am assuming this is on a laptop? [10:26] I am not running 15.10 currently so I can't check what power options might be messed up [10:26] Asach: Systemsettings -> Desktop Behavior -> Screen Locking -> Untick 'Lock screen automatically after'. [10:27] Hateball, Lordievader : thanks... I feel dumb :( [10:29] Asach: Don't, unexperienced and dumb are two completely different things ;) [11:00] Hi, I had a sticky note widget on my PC before I did a fresh install. I made a back up of everything, how do I recover the same sticky note widget with the text that was on it the time I backed up ? === bukai_ is now known as bukai [11:28] why do they always leave so fast [11:35] this chanel is so silent [11:35] Well so it goes === jussi is now known as Guest10152 [11:39] mozg: Ain't it great? :) [12:00] lordievader: nope [12:00] -.- [12:04] lordievader: I'm some trouble with Kde plasma 5 can you help ?

But the tty7 doesn't respond any way [12:18] mozg: What GPU+driver are you using? [12:48] what is the most simple tool to create a DVD-Video with kubuntu? [12:48] I have recoded with the smartphone few videos and i would now like to use one tool to cut them and make a ready iso with a dvd-menu and so on [12:49] on windows there is nero video. what can i use on kubuntu linux? [12:50] greg___: There is http://www.dvdstyler.org/en/ that is in the repositories [12:51] Install it using Muon or "sudo apt-get install dvdstyler" in a terminal [12:51] I am not sure if k3b has support for those features also [12:52] no, k3b can just burn audo cds od iso [13:08] hateball: Intel [13:08] hateball: Intel Hd [13:25] mozg: I think some users had problems with Intel in Plasma 5 when kwin vsync was enabled, so you might want to try and disable that [13:28] hateball: thanks. Now i have find out that the only two modern, and still in development dvd authoring tools are: dvdstyler and opendvdproducer [13:28] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_DVD_authoring_applications [13:29] greg___: Sorry I do not know much on the subject, I rarely use optical media at all [13:30] and i never use that. its for a older person [13:33] hateball: i try that out at the moment. with dvdstyler you cant edit/cut video? [13:35] It's just for authoring afaik [13:36] So you'd have to use something like kdenlive to edit the clips to go onto the disc [13:54] Heys guys. Where might i find the settings to change the plasma UI fonts / colours ect? [13:55] I just noticed that my tooltip font colour is white and its on a light grey background by default so its almost impossible to see [14:10] hateball: Ok i ll try [14:13] mozg: open krunner and search for compositing [14:13] mozg: it's all in there [14:22] Howdy folks [14:29] Hey there [14:30] Hi BluesKaj [14:35] hey hazamonzo [14:54] hi people, have a question [14:54] i want install kubuntu 15.10 + win 7 in gpt hdd with bios legacy active [14:55] Yes? [14:55] install ubuntu mate 15.10 with no problems but kubuntu cant! [14:55] prefers kubuntu but can do it [14:55] Huh? Why not? [14:56] installer say need partition extra [14:56] to boot loader [14:56] ubuntu mate dont say nothing just do it [14:57] A bios partition? Yes, you need that. [14:57] machine is pavilion 15-ab121dx [14:57] https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/GRUB2#BIOS_with_GPT [14:58] gpt disk have: 100mb efi, 128mb gpt, 160gb win7,and 81gb ubuntu mate [14:58] ok, i go read link [15:00] Keep in mind it is written for Gentoo, but the idea applies to Ubuntu too. [15:03] ok [15:05] thanks i try bye [15:18] hey [15:21] how to permanently set locale variable LC_ALL to none? The OS keeps assignin this variable which leads to preventin my custom LC types to be applied === EvilRoey is now known as EvilBroey === EvilBroey is now known as EvilRoey [16:00] hi... i'm trying kubuntu xenial and in last upgrade i get a blank screen at sddm login, also running startx, no plasma was loaded [16:02] i can't see any error at logs, any idea what happens? === ehbello is now known as Guest79491 === Pici is now known as Guest87554 === Guest87554 is now known as Pici [17:15] yo [17:16] [17:16] === Rexodus_ is now known as Rexodus [17:35] Snore Zzzzz, Snore Zzzzz. Falls out of chair... [17:35] :P [18:12] Is there a command to copy all files, including .dotfiles and .dotdirectories from /media/username/UUIDgoeshere to ~ [18:12] cp /media/username/UUIDgoeshere/{*,.*} ~ -R [18:13] with a sudo maybe [18:13] Kwaadpepper: I noticed [regexgoeshere] in the cli commands. at least ls and cp [18:14] I don't know what this notation means {*,.*} [18:14] is it a list with 2 items ? [18:14] using {.txt, .mp3} is better i think [18:14] ah itis [18:14] it means [18:14] all hidden files and all [18:15] it avoids doing on command twice [18:15] cp /media/username/UUIDgoeshere/* ~ -R [18:15] cp /media/username/UUIDgoeshere/.* ~ -R [18:16] remenber this syntax its really poweful :) [18:17] Yeah... I got 140GB of stuff in my /home [18:18] I wonder.. [18:18] lol, i'm close to it too, i find this normal [18:18] Got 280GB for /home [18:18] and 20GB for /-partition [18:18] i have a sdd and mech which is used for /home [18:19] and 8 for swap [18:19] 8 for swap is overkilled is it ? [18:19] and 170GB for MSFT NTFS [18:19] arghhh ntfs, i'm melting ..my...eyes !! [18:19] Kwaadpepper: I dunno. I'm just repeating what I've heard to make it as large as you RAM is [18:20] if it reaches even 50% RAM / 50% SWAP the computer gonna become inusable [18:20] so no point putting more than urr RAM size [18:20] this is bullshit in my opinion [18:21] 2GB is suffisent [18:21] really you would need more i you haved like 500mb ram [18:21] Kwaadpepper: and I put so the NTFS and the /home-dir next to each other [18:21] and a great ssd [18:22] this way I can resize in both directions coz there is no 20GB /-partition stopping you from moving the border of the filesystems in both directions if need may arise [18:22] Well have in mind that / is not supposed to grow a lot, while /home is [18:22] eg: having steam stores games in /home [18:23] jubo2: this is wise though [18:24] Hey. Is there a way to disable wall messages from services asking for passwords? [18:24] what is "wall messages" ? [18:27] wall - write a message to all users [18:27] Please enter password with the systemd-tty-ask-password-agent tool! [18:27] It's a systemd thing that's doing it [18:28] i just tried wall 'hello world' [18:28] it does not ask me for root permission [18:29] For example, when doing 'sudo service somethingThatAsksForPass start' [18:29] like openvpn [18:29] configured to use a ssh key that's password protected [18:29] oh i see [18:30] ssh-useragent maybe is what you are looking fror ? [18:30] to remember ssh key ? [18:30] using kwallet ? === Aaron is now known as Guest67971 [18:36] If I want to update Kubuntu by reinstalling the OS without formatting my disk (so I can keep my /home data), will the installation process take care of updating/replacing the KDE settings folders such as .kde? [18:38] no [18:38] what you have to do is eihter [18:38] have another partion for your /home, which will be more practicall for any futur reinstallation [18:39] or copy your /home/user [18:39] then take all items needed in it and put them in your new /home/user older [18:39] this allows you to throw away unneeded old config files [18:40] OK, thanks! [18:40] example: you won't copy .steam form your old user profile folder if you don't use steam anymore [18:40] Guest67971, in other words create a root partition aka / and /home partition [18:40] i recommand you have a bigger partition for your home folder [18:40] it grows fast [18:41] Makes sense. [18:41] 15G is usually plenty for the / [18:41] Is it "safe" to update to Wily? It seemed kind of unstable, so I'm still on Vivid; I'm using the Kubuntu CI Weekly and Oibaf Graphics PPAs, if it's relevant for upgrade safety [18:42] unascribed: i'm using wily, it is more stable [18:42] i'm also using graphic driver ppa with last nvidia and bumblebee, all clear :p [18:43] geez, I guess if Bumblebee works anything should :P [18:43] beware of intel driver [18:43] because 4.2 has bugs [18:43] i use 4.3 kernel [18:43] my CPU doesn't have a graphics chip in it to begin with, so I shouldn't have to worry [18:43] thanks for the warning though [18:44] unascribed, I have 15.10 Wily on my intel graphics and cpu based laptop running fine , nice and stable here [18:44] forgot to mention if anyone reading, bumblebee has to be sued with nvidia-prime [18:45] what's with the Kubuntu CI PPAs? Weekly only supports Xenial [18:47] guess all the developed apps are in the backports [18:59] so.. [18:59] sudo cp /media/username/UUIDgoeshere/* /home -R [19:00] will copy recursively all filename.ext and filenamewitoutextension [19:01] and then [19:01] sudo cp /media/username/UUIDgoeshere/.* /home -R [19:01] will copy recursively all .dotfiles and .dotdirectories from all directories [19:01] and could be written as [19:01] sudo cp /media/username/UUIDgoeshere/{*,.*} /home -R [19:01] in one line [19:02] I'd hate to be giving wrong information on my http://juboblo.gr blog [19:03] so if someone can confirm that this would seem to copy all /home/username directories and all contents, visible and hidden files [19:04] the .* glob would probably copy the . and .. virtual directories and cause horrible things to happen [19:07] probably.. [19:09] jubo2: Why not 'cp /media/username/UUIDgoeshere /home -R' ? [19:10] yeah.. [19:10] The actual move I did was to use /home/username not /home-partition itself [19:10] so I am not seeing it clearly [19:11] lordievader: is -r and -R different thing? [19:11] jubo2: "-R, -r, --recursive", no. [21:11] what has happened with right click -> unzip here [21:11] and with right click -> compress these files [21:11] doing this on CLI is PITA [21:12] on dolphin there is a patch to fix that somewhere [21:12] i don't have the link anymore [21:12] so it will be fixed in next kubuntu release? [21:13] haha, this is not related to kubuntu, it is related to dolphin and god knows if this will be fixed someday. I hope i'm wrong however [21:13] est31: what are you trying to do anyway? [21:15] https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=201485 [21:15] bprompt, I can google, I know how to zip stuff. Just the unzipping / untarring un bzing etc process is the tedious one because there you have tons of file formats and every single file format has its own little command tool, with its own manpage and huge list of options I all dont need [21:15] ln -s /usr/share/kservices5/ServiceMenus/ark_*.desktop ~/.kde4/share/kde4/services/ServiceMenus/ [21:15] this is the fix i used [21:16] so it's not exactly related to dolphin after all o_o [21:16] hmm [21:16] give it a try it works for me on 15.10 [21:16] est31: so... hmmm what's the issue again? [21:17] "right click -> compress" on dolphin i believe [21:17] *missing [21:17] yea easily accessable gui tools not available [21:17] one has to click through ark [21:18] hmm [21:18] est31: have you tried the command i gived ? [21:18] *i gave [21:19] ~/.kde4 ? [21:19] isnt it 5? [21:19] hmmm [21:19] I only have ~/.kde [21:19] lemme try it [21:19] yes, you got it right [21:21] est31: I use Krusader file manager, is a dual-pane file manager, it has a pack/unpack option that you can use, and has a dropdown for rar/zip/tar/bzip and many others, and uses dependencies like unrar and unzip and others, that if you just want to see the file, and no open it, you can just click it, and it will open it like a folder, from there, you can copy/move to the other pane or tab and such [21:21] est31: but in the end... that doesn't address the original issue I'd think, which you never really mentioned anyhow [21:23] Is krusader a total commander clone or sort of ? [21:23] bprompt, the issue is that the GUI elements from dolphin got removed since my upgrade to 15.10. [21:23] est31: hmmm dunno what that means :/ [21:23] not all of them, but those regarding unzipping files and zippiung files [21:24] est31: so you did ln -s /usr/share/kservices5/ServiceMenus/ark_*.desktop ~/.kde/share/kde4/services/ServiceMenus/ ? [21:24] just restarting dolphin should work [21:25] yes ~/.kde/share/kde4/services/ServiceMenus/ [21:25] lemme see [21:25] Kwaadpepper: dunno, there are many dual-pane file managers, I know total commander is an oldie, but krusader is old just as well, I've used it back in kde 3.x, not sure if clone of it, anymore than a clone of gentoo file manager [21:25] bprompt: dolphin can have double pannel too though [21:26] Kwaadpepper: difference being, krusader is very customizable, with user actions, you can add your actions to the toolbar, [21:26] indeed [21:27] Kwaadpepper: yes, I do use dolphin, krusader is far more flexible, you can also have many tabs per pane, like for example, I most of the time have about 9 tabs in each pane, the left and right pane, you can move the tabs around, even across panes [21:27] est31: all you have to do is type the comand i gave you in a terminal this would od the job [21:27] Kwaadpepper, I've done it, no changes [21:28] est31: try restarting dolphin or your computer maybe. I'm sure this is the solution, i've done it myself and few people here too [21:28] did killall dolphin already [21:28] restart session ? [21:28] or computer if you can [22:30] Does kubuntu have any issues using a GeForce 750 Ti? I know there were problems early on after the release. [22:31] You mean using nvidia prop or foss driver ? [22:31] i meant nouveau [22:32] Using... whatever driver I should [22:32] I had issues using nouveau [22:33] graphic drivers ppa provides last nvidia driver which is working fine on 870 [22:33] (keppler) [22:34] kunguz: Why do you quit so often? [22:36] tyanks Kwaadpepper [22:36] tyanks* [22:36] wtf! thanks*** [22:36] hah , yeah got it :p [22:37] Suffering from some kind of asdf impediment [22:47] Trying to install teamviewer 64 bit deb on Kub 15.10 - https://paste.kde.org/ppk3qvrii / Need some help with dependancies [22:51] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2181680 [22:52] you tried to install the 32 bit version ?
