mck182how does one boot to text mode with efi?04:48
lordievaderGood morning.08:45
MirvFYI I've updated qca-qt5 so that it compiles on Qt 5.5 so that okteta autopkgtest doesn't fail10:35
BluesKajHowdy all12:10
BluesKajIs plasma 5.5 in the staging ppa yet ?12:36
Riddellsgclark: yofel: I merged pkg-kde-tools12:42
* BluesKaj guesses his question is wrong somehow12:45
BluesKajhttp://news.softpedia.com/news/kde-plasma-5-5-features-new-default-font-wayland-session-legacy-tray-icons-support-video-497275.shtml12:47
yofelBluesKaj: no and no12:55
yofelRiddell: thanks12:55
BluesKajyofel, any timeline for plasma 5.5 ?12:57
yofelnot that I know of, sorry12:58
BluesKajok thanks12:59
BluesKajI suppose it will be in the 15.10 backports soon tho..I'll be checking on my laptop13:02
YossarianukHi - are their plans for Plasma 5.5 to be in the backports PPA for 15.10 ?  5.5 was released today -> https://www.kde.org/announcements/plasma-5.5.0.php13:59
sgclarkRiddell: merged as in fixed now?14:51
Riddellsgclark: l10n-thing.mk got added in so I hope that fixes any problems14:57
sgclarkoh great, yes that will fix much of the breakage.14:59
sgclarkthanks14:59
sgclarkBut to whom it may concern, I must leave in the morning to visit my aunt in the hospise. I am running out of time.15:00
sgclarkSo unless someone else steps up to package 5.5 it will be awhile. Sorry.15:00
BluesKajsgclark, ok thanks, understood .15:02
sgclarkRiddell: new and exciting failures with pkg-kde-tools15:15
Riddellsgclark: hmm?15:16
sgclarklook at ecm buildlog ^15:17
clivejowill the packages buld themselfs15:18
clivejothat would be an exciting feature15:19
sgclarklol15:19
Riddell"Undefined subroutine &Debian::Debhelper::Buildsystem::kf5::dpkg_architecture_value called at /usr/share/perl5/Debian/Debhelper/Buildsystem/kf5.pm line 47."  hmm15:20
sgclarkwell. if I could ever get CI back to working order, then yes15:20
sgclarkbut it is a freaking mess atm.15:20
clivejoindeed, very storm Desmond15:21
clivejoeakkk all packages are broken today15:22
clivejothere isnt a green light in the whole of senial15:23
clivejoxenial15:23
sgclarkyes, kf5 updated. but pkg-kde-tools is still broken in a new and exciting way, which is a blocker for al15:23
sgclarkall*15:23
clivejocursed sitter15:24
sgclarkright see above. till pkg-kde-tools is fixed all will remain.15:24
sgclarknothing to do with sitter15:24
clivejosgclark: I mean him calling xenial senile15:24
sgclarkoh lol15:24
clivejoI find myself calling it senial a lot15:25
BluesKajnot senile ?15:29
clivejositter calls it senile15:32
clivejobut my fingers keep pressing the s key instead of x15:32
BluesKajthink it's meant to synonymous with genial, xenial actaully means anyway 15:36
BluesKajlet me rephrase that : I think it's meant to be synonymous with genial, which xenial actually means anyway ,,,have to correct those senile mistakes of mine :-)15:39
sgclarklol15:42
* clivejo cries15:45
clivejohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3wFTo34mCj015:45
clivejoI want, I want15:45
clivejoso pretty15:46
sgclarkalright I am off, see you all soon17:32
mck182how does one boot to non-X mode on kubuntu these days?18:40
mck182I've tried appending "text" instead of "quite splash" but that still started sddm18:40
BluesKajquiet spalsh even18:43
mck182even18:43
BluesKaj:_)\\18:43
mck182btw can someone retrigger powerdevil build in kci? the last package is very old and cannot be installed due to conflicts with kscreen18:43
BluesKaj0 timeout used to work18:44
mck182so kci unstable now has no power management ^^18:44
mck182BluesKaj: that's unfortunately a) not working anymore b) not what I actually want18:44
mck182(if you run update-grub with timeout=0 it will print a warning that it's not supported anymore)18:45
mck182but I want to boot to tty, not sddm18:45
BluesKajmck182, if you drop to a vt/tty I guess that stops X18:45
mck182not exactly18:46
mck182it just switches you to a different tty18:46
mck182not killing X18:46
BluesKajyeah18:46
mck182but I want to boot to tty, not boot to X and then kill X18:46
BluesKajyou want to load wayland I suppose18:47
mck182that as well18:47
BluesKajthere must be a line edit in grub that will work18:48
mck182yes, you're supposed to append "text" to kernel args18:49
mck182but I dunno if that is still working with 4.2.0/15.1018:49
mck182not for me anyway18:49
mck182perhaps efi has something to do with it18:49
mck182I dunno18:49
yofelI would rather say systemd is involved here, but I don't know what the solution is either18:51
BluesKajwhat avou the line #GRUB_TERMINAL=console,  in /etc/default/grub18:51
BluesKajabout18:51
mck182BluesKaj: that's for grub-pc only I've read18:52
mck182while I have grub-efi18:52
BluesKajbummer18:52
mck182yofel: or that, yeah18:52
BluesKajdamn uefi18:53
mck182yofel: btw could please retrigger powerdevil build in kci? the last one is very outdated and conflicts with plasma-workspace18:53
BluesKajis that why the new plasma-workspace is being held back ?18:54
BluesKajeither the ic ppa or the staging ppa have it , forgot which , but I have them commented now18:57
mck182does anyone understand systemd to help investigate a thing?19:47
lordievadermck182: What is the problem?19:50
mck182lordievader: when I stop sddm, my display is powered off, I believe this is systemd doing, in the syslog I see "Reached target Shutdown"19:51
mck182so I'm somewhat assuming that systemd is powering down the screen for machine power off19:51
mck182but I'd like it not to19:51
lordievaderHehe, that is odd. Does it automatically reboot if the sddm service is disabled?19:51
mck182no19:52
mck182I still have access to tty119:52
mck182but the screen is powered off19:52
mck182so I can blindly type "sudo reboot" and it will reboot19:52
lordievaderHmm, well it could be that systemd thinks the lid is closed. (Is this a laptop by the way?)19:53
mck182yeah, laptop19:53
mck182lordievader: here's the full log https://paste.kde.org/pjp10gyy219:54
lordievadermck182: Edit '/etc/systemd/logind.conf' and let it say, among things, 'HandleLidSwitch=ignore'. Then reboot (or reload logind).19:54
mck182lordievader: how do I reload logind?19:55
lordievadermck182: Not really sure if that will immeadeate effect, but: sudo systemctl reload systemd-logind19:56
mck182lordievader: "Failed to reload systemd-logind.service: Job type reload is not applicable for unit systemd-logind.service."19:56
mck182so I guess I'll just reboot19:56
lordievaderHmm, you can try restarting it but that might fail worse ;)19:57
mck182np, reboots are quick ^^19:57
mck182lisandro: well that didn't help20:01
lordievaderHmm...20:02
lordievaderWhat does the log of systemd-logind say?20:03
mck182hmm....how can I display previous boot with journalctl?20:06
mck182--list-boots shows only the current boot20:06
lordievaderThen it is likely set to volatile. Set the journal to persistent mode to save journals across boots.20:08
mck182one thing I hope you realized by now is that I have zarro knowledge about thingsd :)20:08
mck182so if you tell me set it to persistent mode, I have no idea how20:09
lordievaderBy the by, maybe we should move to #kubuntu, this is not really a support room ;)20:09
mck182oh right20:10
soeeyofel: any plans to add Plasma 5.5 to Kubuntu any soon ?20:37
yofeldon't hold your breath. Not with scarlett on a trip and me working overtime every day.20:39
clivejohow come you are on overtime yofel?20:41
yofelMy todo list at work until christmas is too long? And it's winter and people are sick and stuff20:42
yofelwell, life20:42
yofelBut as a result I have like next to no motivation to do something productive once I get home -.-20:43
clivejobad weather there too?20:49
clivejoyofel: regarding ecm I have built it on my own xenial system, but I added a build dep on python-sphinx20:51
yofelNot really, we had 3 days of all-day mist though which finally cleared up today20:52
yofelsounds like documentation stuff. Dunno if we ship that for ecm20:53
clivejoah20:54
clivejoI wonder what I have on my machine that allows it to build, but is not on LP21:05
yofelwell, the CI failure is caused by the busted pkg-kde-tools21:08
clivejowhere does it get built?21:10
yofelecm or pkt?21:10
clivejopkt21:10
yofelarchive21:10
clivejocant see it in KCI21:11
yofelit's not in the CI, it's just a tooling package21:11
clivejoso my tooling package is different to the one KCI is using?21:12
yofeldunno, what version do you have?21:12
clivejoInstalled: 0.15.19ubuntu121:13
yofelthat one works, 0.15.20~ubuntu1 is busted21:14
clivejowhere is 0.15.20 coming from?21:14
yofelarchive21:14
clivejo500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ xenial/main amd64 Packages21:15
yofel     0.15.20~ubuntu1 021:15
yofel        500 http://localhost:3142/archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ xenial/main amd64 Packages21:15
clivejowonder why my install isnt using it21:15
yofelyou probably didn't update21:16
yofelah well, lets see if I can get this fixed21:16
clivejowho looks after the tooling then?21:17
yofelus21:17
valoriewe need more people!21:22
yofeldefinitely21:22
valorieit's a bit worrying that the team is too small to have time to mentor new folks21:23
* yofel wonders what the purpose of the failing code is...21:23
valoriealthough I will say that GCi while fun, hasn't gotten us long-term contributors21:23
clivejoyofel: how do you find out?21:27
clivejoask the KDE folks?21:27
yofelso far I'm wondering that myself :P21:27
yofelnah, this shouldn't be so hard that reading the actual code won't help21:28
yofeland from what I can see, the current default behavior matches the indended one, so that diff is probably obsolete21:28
yofelwhich would explain why debian doesn't need it21:28
clivejoyofel: why do we have so much other stuff as well as the debian folder ?21:30
clivejohttp://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-kde/pkg-kde-tools.git/tree/?h=kubuntu_xenial_archive21:30
yofelthat's a debian native package, i.e. "We" are upstream here21:31
yofelwhich is why the code and the packaging are together21:31
yofelthe kubuntu specific stuff is in the kubuntu/ folder. + some patched files21:32
clivejoso very confusing!21:32
yofelhow so? It's packaging tooling, so it should be pretty obvious that we wrote that ^^21:33
yofelhm...21:34
yofelI wonder if I can run apt from inside the tooling... would drop the dep diff for lintian...21:34
yofelsgclark, Riddell: pkg-kde-tools with the broken line dropped uploaded to the archive, should fix most things.21:49
yofelthere is still one call to dpkg_architecture_value in dh_sameversiondep, but that's mostly unused these days21:50
clivejoyofel: what was broken?21:50
yofel"Undefined subroutine &Debian::Debhelper::Buildsystem::kf5::dpkg_architecture_value called at /usr/share/perl5/Debian/Debhelper/Buildsystem/kf5.pm line 47."21:50
Riddellyofel: you're a genius, did you sync up git?22:43
yofelit's in git22:43
