[01:19] Hello guys. I want to hide menu bar in certain applications (e.g. konsole). There is an option to hide menu bar but when reloaded menu is visible again. Can I somehow force manu bar to be hidden? [01:19] But realoaded I meant closing and opening again. [01:22] Buy* [01:22] By*... I'm prolly too tired to communicate with people. [01:28] ejay: What version of Kubuntu/Konsole? [01:40] Salut ! === jayhunold is now known as jhunold [08:00] I'm getting the standard Qt file open dialog in kate, kwrite etc. How do I get the KDE version? [08:31] Morning === ufo is now known as Guest92430 [11:45] I have upgrade to 15.04. If I enter "dolphin" in bash, it opens dolphin in Admin-Mode. [11:46] how can I change it to open dolphin in user-mode? [11:46] and ... how can I remove old kde4 components? They are still exist [11:48] Do you run bash as root? [11:55] no [11:59] Hmm, then it is very strange that it would run in admin-mode. That would be a serious rights-exploit. [12:09] Hiyas all [12:17] Hi all. Kubuntu currently offers me kernel-upgrades, but muon warns that they are unsigned. Does kubuntu deliver the packages unsigned or do I have a problem? [12:25] dracor_xxx, which kubuntu ? and are you using ppas in your sources.list? [12:26] BluesKaj kubuntu 15.10. Only PPA I am aware of having added is for Plasma Media Center. Can't look it up right now, Kubuntu PC is at home, I am not [12:30] dracor_xxx, well that ppa probly affects the kernel module required upgrades for the media center and install dkms if not already ionstalled [12:31] BluesKaj Thank you, will do. Bye all [13:27] On 15.10, I'm getting the standard Qt file open dialog in kate, kwrite etc. How do I get the KDE version? [13:33] ngaio, in the terminal , plasmashell -v , that will give your plasma version which is now kde [13:35] BluesKaj, What I mean is that when I run kwrite etc, and pull up the open file dialogue, I'm not getting the KDE open file dialog. What I'm getting is the Qt version. I assume that's not meant to be the default way of doing things, and it can be fixed. Sorry for the confusion. [13:36] ngaio, update and upgrade asap [13:37] BluesKaj, I'm fully updated in 15.10 [13:38] I actually don't care about any current settings in my .config etc. with respect to KDE. Is there a single command I can run that will revert all settings to default for my user? [13:38] I see some weird stuff in any case, like missing icons in the menu [13:39] something obviously went wrong in the upgrade from previous versions [13:43] ngaio, check in dolphin settings>configure dolphin >services. Make sure you have more than just the 5 services that came with plasma 5 [13:44] it's not a cure but an indicator [13:46] I'm currently in a Unity session, but assuming that makes no difference, I have only 5 services, and if it's relevant, the left side panel has only one icon showing, for Startup. Only the last 3 services are activated. [13:49] ok ngaio https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=223&t=128621 [13:51] BluesKaj, if I fix the problem of missing services, I'll get the KDE file dialogs back? [13:52] ngaio, I think so yes, not absolutely sure [13:53] thanks, I'll take a look and report back [13:54] plasma 5 has been such a muckup, I can't remember anymore :-) === kubuntu is now known as Guest97973 [14:31] BluesKaj, the problem of the missing KDE file dialog was not fixed by that forum entry's instructions. It's not a big deal. I'll wait until 16.04, I guess. I was looking for it mainly so I could respond to request for information regarding a bug report I filed on KDE's handling of MTP devices [14:32] ngaio, have you rebooted? [14:32] BluesKaj, no I didn't try that, I just looged out [14:32] logged* [14:33] ok [14:33] I'll reboot now, if you suggest [14:34] it might work [14:35] brb [14:41] ngaio, any luck? if not try this, sudo ln -s /usr/share/kde4/servicetypes/konqpopupmenuplugin.desktop /usr/share/kservicetypes5/ [14:45] BluesKaj, no luck. I already did that command. I got a whole bunch of additional servies in Dolphin, but still no proper file open dialog === rudy_ is now known as Guest33204 [16:48] Bonsoir [16:50] !fr | solarhis [16:50] solarhis: Nous sommes desoles mais ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en français, veuillez taper /join #ubuntu-fr ou /join #ubuntu-qc. Merci. [17:03] hi guys, do i need the source to package a program or i can package from a binary of an older release? [17:06] Source [17:06] ok, thanks genii === Steffstoff is now known as Guest46590 [19:20] hey friends [19:20] so krunner now consistently crashes on login for me [19:20] I get the error reporting popup, and go for the stack trace [19:20] "Could not find debug symbols for this application" [19:20] So I guess my questions are: 1) is there a known problem with krunner now, and 2) if I wanted to give a quality bug report how would I go about getting a proper stack trace? [19:24] jaafar: first you'd need the symbols [19:25] denza242: excellent! any suggestions on how to get them? [19:25] I'll check the exact packagename in a bit, but it's probably krunner-dbg or something [19:25] I wonder why the crash reporting tool couldn't figure it out... [19:25] jaafar: the packagename? [19:26] why it couldn't find the debug symbols for me [19:26] hello [19:26] drkonqi (crashreporter) is system agnostic, and each distro has it's own weird naming convention for packages [19:26] is it bad if i do my do-release-upgrade from a regular in-session command shell? meaning - without logging off and doing it from tty1 [19:26] perhaps it's libkf5runner5-dbg [19:27] !info libkf5runner5-dbg [19:27] libkf5runner5-dbg (source: krunner): debug symbols for krunner. In component universe, is extra. Version 5.15.0-0ubuntu1 (wily), package size 1207 kB, installed size 1268 kB [19:27] oh joy [19:27] jaafar: ^yep, seems like it [19:27] that explains a lot [19:27] thanks guys [19:27] I mean denza242 [19:28] jaafar: no problem [19:34] well great... doing do-release-upgrade from command line froze the system some 60-80% through the process... the last output to console was Installing for x86_64-efi platform. [19:34] cant even switch to tty [19:35] so i can't even check if the upgrade has completed or not.... :( [19:35] regedit-work, upgrading to 15.10? [19:36] BluesKaj: ye [19:36] from 15.04 [19:36] i (accidentally) initiated the upgrade from within a logged in session graphical command console (Konsole) instead of perhaps better to have logged out and to it from tty [19:37] so just a frozen terminal [19:37] BluesKaj: no the entire system is frozen; no mouse, no key combinations, not even switching to tty works [19:39] whut thuh fuhhhhhhh.... D: [19:40] ctl+PrtScn+REISUB ? [19:40] REISUB? whut? [19:40] it'll totally reboot [19:41] !REISUB [19:41] In an emergency, you may be able to shutdown cleanly and reboot by holding down Alt+PrintScreen and typing, in succession, R, E, I, S, U and B. For an explanation, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key [19:42] i mean, should i do that? any chance i'd be interrupting the still-running upgrade? [19:42] interesting never knew about that one [19:42] oops alt+.... [19:43] well, if you have patience maybe whatever is happening will unfreeze itself , but I doubt it. [19:43] well i did it [19:43] and now i land at a grub prompt [19:43] the upgrade probably didnt leave grub in a bootable state [19:44] or didnt finish configuring it... :( [19:44] FFFFFU [19:44] maybe a an update and upgrade from the VT/TTY will finish it [19:44] yes but how to boot [19:44] i'm at a grub prompt [19:45] guuuhhhhhhh [19:45] you have miserably failed Kubuntu, you have failed the user terribly [19:45] i will remember this Kubuntu [19:45] do you have another linux OS in grub [19:45] BluesKaj: it's not a boot menu, it's a command prompt saying grub> [19:46] oh the grub rescue prompt ...bummer [19:47] but is there another linux on your machine [19:48] "bummer"? releasing broken upgrade processes that break a users OS and make it unbootable is outright evil... [19:48] not you BluesKaj :p [19:48] but i am fuming right now, just saying [19:48] Hi, is there an estimate date for the availability of Plasma 5.5 for Kubuntu 15.10? [19:49] regedit-work, I have to ask, did you upgrade your packages before running the upgrade-release ? [19:49] now i have to spend an hour or more finding & writing a live buntu..... uhhhhh the outrage [19:50] BluesKaj: yes; sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade were performed and completed successfully before do-release-upgrade [19:50] even sudo apt-ger dist-upgrade [19:50] for good measure === alex__ is now known as meloddie [19:51] Pebete, no firm date , the dev reponsible has a serious family matter to attend to so the builds are postponed for a few days [19:51] Thanks [19:52] BluesKaj: is there no way to give this grub> command prompt directions to boot the Kubuntu that's there at least to text command line? [19:53] regedit-work, the only thing I can suggest is systemrescue disk or boot-repair [19:53] why [19:53] on a scale of 0 to none [19:54] that is just fantastic [19:54] thanks anyway BluesKaj, i will now go break a brick wall or something [19:54] well if you can't get to a VT/TTY I have no magic commands [19:55] i mean like, why does a grub> prompt exist anyway, if not to be able to manually boot something that is otherwise not perfectly configured to boot automatically... [19:56] regedit-work, I always keep a boot-repair disk handy for these situations [20:06] jaafar, I had that issue and I was able to clear it up by reseting the baloorc files [20:07] vertago1: the only one I could find just has some Akonadi setting in it [20:08] jaafar, I am trying to remember what I did to fix my issue with the debut symbols. [20:08] *debug [20:08] Oh [20:08] well, thanks, hopefully I'm set on the krunner front [20:08] the insight that package names are idiosyncratic was a helpful one [20:10] jaafar did you change any of the settings related to generating core files? [20:11] vertago1: where would those settings be :) [20:12] jaafar the core dump size shouldn't be an issue as long as you are getting a list of the stack trace though. Did you get a list or just one line? [20:13] BluesKaj: I have an external 2TB hard drive formatted to NTFS, with a lot of space available. What are the chances of shrinking some space for a bootable live buntu on it? [20:13] vertago1: I'm not sure; I was following the crash reporting wizard. It told me my stack trace was useless, then couldn't download symbols. Hopefully the second issue is now resolved. [20:14] the symbols are usually in packages with -dbg at the end [20:14] they are pretty large [20:16] the package for krunner is probably libkf5runner5-dbg on kubuntu 15.10 [20:17] getting apport fixed and downloading them through it would probably be the best though. [20:19] regedit-work, yes, resizing the drive with gparted disk and formatting to ext4 and installing kubuntu on it will definitely work [20:19] yes denza242 helped me find them already [20:19] I am ready for the next time it happens [20:20] BluesKaj: ok le'me try that rabbit hole... === jayhunold is now known as jhunold [20:23] a 100GB ext4 partition for linux is plenty, regedit-work or even 50G if you don't plan on holding too much data on that partition [20:37] no this is just for the bootable recovery [20:38] is that a bad idea / not possible? [20:39] to make room on a drive currently fully occupied by an NTFS partition - for a bootable live buntu? [20:52] resizing 1.82 TiB to 1.8 TiB, how long should this take already? [20:56] This afternoon I ran apt-get dist-upgrade, and all went as usual. But on te next power-on of the laptop, the UUID of the swap partition had changed... Why? [20:56] How can I track it down? [21:43] ubuntourist: some things to consider are whether or not you use cryptswap and whether or not you have booted off a live CD which may have mounted the swap. [21:43] ubuntourist: I have never seen a partition change UUID on its own so I am guessing mkswap was run on it for some reason [21:44] vertago1: Neither cryptswap nor a live CD. [21:45] After the dist-upgrade, I shut down and moved to a different location. When I restarted, the keyboard was dead. After several restarts, with dead keyboard, [21:46] I dropped into recovery at boot to see if I could ferret out the trouble. [21:46] ubuntourist it is entirely possible if you powered off the machine while it was trying to write to disk it could have clobbered the uuid information on disk [21:46] That's where I saw it was having trouble with swap and found a different UUID assigned than what I had in /etc/fstab [21:47] vertago1: There's a possibility. [21:48] vertago1: The beastie's had trouble shutting down normally of late, and I've had to resort to popping the battery to get it to really stop. [21:48] ubuntourist, how do you shut it down? [21:49] I have had some machines have issues that were fixed with later kernels [21:49] vertago1: I try to wait several minutes, in the hopes that it stops writing before popping the battery. [21:50] ubuntourist: something you may want to look at because it lets you force a disk sync :https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key#Uses [21:50] vertago1: I'm running Ubuntu Studio, and I normally just go to the Logout in the upper right, which offers a Logout, Restart, Shutdown or Suspend. [21:51] (On occasion, I run a "sudo shutdown -h now" but rarely.) [21:52] vertago1: Thanks. I'll look into that. [22:08] anyone know how add to klipper via the command line? [22:09] (with qt5) [22:12] wxl: have you tried this: https://www.kubuntuforums.net/showthread.php?68017-CLI-for-Plasma-5-Clipboard? [22:12] apparently the widget is different from the app [22:16] vertago1: thanks. i was actually having the same problem-- not registered as a service [22:53] wxl: you can pipe to xsel to do that
