| ghostnetwork | having an issue. macbook pro first gen intel running kubuntu is giving me an error message (initramfs) | 01:29 |
|---|---|---|
| ghostnetwork | kubuntu contains a file system with errors , check forced | 01:30 |
| ghostnetwork | Inodes that were part of a corrupted orphaned file link list found | 01:31 |
| ghostnetwork | unexpected consistency found run fsck manually | 01:31 |
| ghostnetwork | anyone there? | 01:35 |
| ghostnetwork | ???? | 01:49 |
| RoadRunner | how is kubuntu different from debian under KDE? | 02:50 |
| dark-jedi | unexpected consistency? That's an odd backhanded compliment for a crash message. | 02:50 |
| dark-jedi | RoadRunner: Depends on how risky you're willing to run Debian KDE. | 02:51 |
| ghostnetwork | yeah its giving me bizarre errors | 02:53 |
| ghostnetwork | almost all my permissions are denied or commands don't exist | 02:53 |
| === klaus is now known as Guest81446 | ||
| ghostnetwork | any commands to just repair everything even if i have permission denied? | 02:54 |
| dark-jedi | ghostnetwork: If permission is denied, you would have to log in as root to run the commands. And, the commands to repair would depend entirely on the error messages you get. | 02:56 |
| dark-jedi | ghostnetwork: I have to run though. Hopefully someone else in this channel will be able to get you started on fixing it. | 02:58 |
| ghostnetwork | how would i go about doing that? i am using macbook pro firstgen intel. my reg boot up is messed to begin with (but kubuntu did run normally) i turn it on , hold down option and i click on kubuntu ( it would normally run last night) | 02:58 |
| RoadRunner | basicaly, I am choosing a distro for game develpment and need advice | 03:15 |

| RoadRunner | coming from a world of Windows, is the learning curve likely to be easier for me with kubuntu or with debian under kde, or is the difference minimal? | 03:34 |
| ghostnetwork | any idea how to log in as root? i don't have very many options.... but i just want to wipe the drive on my laptop so i can retry getting kubuntu/xubuntu installed | 03:38 |

| mausschubser | can someone tell me how to get them back? | 13:12 |
| mausschubser | thanks in advancew | 13:12 |
| BluesKaj | mausschubser, update, upgrade, then dist-upgrade | 13:15 |

| BluesKaj | are you using any ppa sources ? and make sure you have the backportd enable in your sources.list or package manager | 13:38 |
| BluesKaj | backports enabled | 13:39 |
| mausschubser | backports are enabled | 13:40 |
| mausschubser | I am not quite sure about ppa but I think I have one | 13:41 |
| mausschubser | as I cannot jump between the windows this has become a single-task-system | 13:42 |
| mausschubser | it all happened after updating the kernel, I think I will try an older one | 13:43 |
| mausschubser | cu later | 13:43 |
| asach4 | hello, I am on 15.10. Could you please tell me whether there is any way to add multiple wallpapers in FOLDER VIEW SETTINGS > WALLPAPER? or is there any way we can right click on a wallpaper and set it as desktop background? | 15:49 |

| ragehead | guys it's possible to downgrade the kernel, right? | 16:23 |
| ragehead | I will transfer the config files from the current standard kubuntu kernel to an older one that has proven to be 100% on my system | 16:24 |
| ragehead | 100% stable* of course lol | 16:24 |
| ragehead | talking about 15.10 | 16:26 |
| eluus | I have video performance issues with Kubuntu 15.10, is there anyone who can help? | 16:29 |
| Smurphy | eluus: video perfomance ? What GPU you using ? | 16:30 |
| eluus | it's intel | 16:30 |
| Smurphy | ah - ok. And you use vlc ? | 16:30 |
| eluus | yeah | 16:31 |
| Smurphy | for video playback ? or what do you mean by video performance issues ? | 16:31 |
| eluus | on vlc it's only problematic when I connect it to an external display | 16:31 |
| Smurphy | so what is happening ? | 16:31 |
| eluus | the issue is mainly on external display and when playing youtube videos | 16:31 |
| eluus | html5 or flash | 16:31 |
| eluus | it's a Intel® HD Graphics 4400 to be precise | 16:31 |
| Smurphy | There is no acceleration for it. | 16:31 |
| eluus | It's a recent and reasonably fast computer it shouldn't have performance issues | 16:32 |
| eluus | It didn't have these issues with unity | 16:33 |
| Smurphy | yes. I have the same GPU, and have no issues with the performance. | 16:33 |
| eluus | on kubuntu? | 16:33 |
| eluus | 15.10? | 16:33 |
| Smurphy | Yes. Kubuntu 15.10 on a Mac Mini 2012 6,2 - with i7 Quad Core 2.6GHhz CPU | 16:34 |
| Smurphy | But - there is no acceleration in the browsers. | 16:34 |
| Smurphy | hardware acceleration, so it all goes through the CPU. | 16:34 |
| eluus | my resolution is 2560x1440, maybe that's what is causing the problem | 16:35 |
| Smurphy | no. Should not. I have 2 full HD screens connected to it. | 16:35 |
| eluus | wow | 16:36 |
| eluus | and can you play videos on them smoothly? | 16:36 |
| ragehead | such amaze | 16:36 |
| Smurphy | yes. | 16:36 |
| Smurphy | one on each even. Works nice. On connected through Display port, the other through HDMI. Just fine. | 16:36 |
| eluus | k so, what do you think my problem is? | 16:36 |
| Smurphy | Do you have issues/problems notified in /var/log/Xorg.log | 16:37 |
| Smurphy | ? | 16:37 |
| eluus | let me check | 16:38 |
| Smurphy | egrep "(EE)|(WW)" /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 16:38 |
| Smurphy | Sorry, use this one: | 16:39 |
| Smurphy | egrep "\(EE\)|\(WW\)" /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 16:39 |
| eluus | these could be related: | 16:40 |
| eluus | [ 3.781] (WW) Falling back to old probe method for modesetting | 16:40 |
| eluus | [ 3.781] (WW) Falling back to old probe method for fbdev | 16:40 |
| eluus | [ 3.782] (WW) Falling back to old probe method for vesa | 16:40 |
| Smurphy | yes. Looks like your system does not get a decent mode information for your screens. | 16:40 |
| eluus | How can I fix that? | 16:42 |
| Smurphy | Check out other cables :} | 16:45 |
| eluus | what cables? | 16:49 |
| Smurphy | Video. It is unable to read the EDID from the screen... | 16:50 |
| eluus | Really? do you think it's an hardware issue? | 16:52 |
| Smurphy | it should not. But it also depends on the drivers you use./ | 16:53 |
| Smurphy | Using the intel_drv.so | 16:54 |
| eluus | It's all default drivers | 16:54 |
| Smurphy | check in the /var/log/Xorg.log file. | 16:54 |
| Smurphy | compiled for 1.17.2, module version = 2.99.917 | 16:54 |
| Smurphy | could be that I added some other drivers. | 16:55 |
| eluus | [ 3.780] compiled for 1.17.2, module version = 2.99.917 | 16:55 |
| eluus | [ 3.780] Module class: X.Org Video Driver | 16:55 |
| Smurphy | Will have to leave -> we go swimming every mondeay evening with the kids. | 16:56 |

| CrystalMare2 | BluesKaj: are you around ? | 17:53 |
| BluesKaj | CrystalMare2, yes, I'm here | 17:55 |
| CrystalMare2 | Its happend again | 17:56 |
| CrystalMare2 | After we fixed it the other day, I've been using it for the rest of the day | 17:56 |
| CrystalMare2 | Now I restarted the machine, and its broken yet again :( | 17:56 |
| CrystalMare2 | you wut | 18:01 |
| CrystalMare2 | I did CTRL ALT F2 | 18:01 |
| CrystalMare2 | And then CTRL ALT F7 to return to X | 18:02 |
| CrystalMare2 | and that seems to have fixed it | 18:02 |
| CrystalMare2 | Why it does this, I have no idea | 18:02 |
| BluesKaj | CrystalMare2, check /var/log/Xorg.0.log to see if there are any obvious errors | 18:05 |
| BluesKaj | X is probly crashing some lib or such when booting | 18:06 |
| CrystalMare2 | nothing in there | 18:06 |
| BluesKaj | doyou mean it's empty or no errors? | 18:07 |

| ragehead | guys, we have a racing game on linux! grid autosport is available for linux! | 18:11 |
| ragehead | I'm so happy right now, it's downloading | 18:11 |
| ragehead | finally vroomvroom with linux | 18:12 |
| BluesKaj | ragehead, btw why are compiling a kernel , is it a specialist kernel of some kind/ | 18:12 |
| BluesKaj | ? | 18:12 |
| ragehead | BlueKaj: yes, also both of the standard shipped 4.2.0 kernel have issues for me when booting | 18:13 |
| ragehead | I have my startup SSD encrypted and when booting up, the keyboard doesn't work for some reason | 18:14 |
| BluesKaj | ragehead, do you have some kind of unique or exotic hardware ? | 18:14 |
| ragehead | so then I need to reset the machine with the hw button and the GRUB menu pops up. then when booting, the screen stays black but I can type in my pw blindly and it boots up | 18:14 |
| ragehead | not really, just a 2500k on a z77 mobo w 7870 AMD graphics | 18:15 |
| ragehead | with mint kde I had no issues like this, however I wanted plasma 5 so I switched to kubuntu | 18:15 |
| ragehead | on mint kde I used 3.16 kernel, I wish to stay with that kernel. however make throws that error at me and I have no clue how to fix it | 18:16 |
| ragehead | maybe I'll just go for a precompiled kernel then first... | 18:16 |
| BluesKaj | you can edit grub to showup without being hidden and enable sddm in the VT/TTY , sudo systemctl enable sddm | 18:16 |
| ragehead | BluesKaj: thanks, wait a second, I'll try to do this right now | 18:17 |
| BluesKaj | sddm being the login page for kubuntu | 18:17 |
| ragehead | does it need to be TTY? | 18:17 |
| BluesKaj | yes it's best | 18:17 |
| ragehead | okay | 18:17 |
| ragehead | but wait, sddm is the loginmanager, right? | 18:18 |
| BluesKaj | yes | 18:18 |
| ragehead | to show grub at every boot I have to modify the loginmanager? | 18:18 |
| BluesKaj | no | 18:18 |
| BluesKaj | just make the sddm appear | 18:19 |
| denza242 | ragehead: alternatively, hold the shift key down while booting | 18:20 |
| BluesKaj | you can edit grub in kate then update grub after making the timeout changes | 18:20 |
| === ian is now known as Guest24362 | ||
| denza242 | ^you'll need to be superuser | 18:20 |

| denza242 | !info grub-customizer | 18:21 |
| ubottu | Package grub-customizer does not exist in wily | 18:21 |
| ragehead | I'll use vim :D | 18:21 |
| denza242 | that works I suppose | 18:21 |
| ragehead | I'm currently searching for the grub config files | 18:21 |
| BluesKaj | denza242, don't suggest that app ,,it's real clunky and dangerous | 18:21 |
| denza242 | I see | 18:21 |
| denza242 | BluesKaj: plus it's GTK based :P | 18:22 |
| ragehead | I'm quite new in the linux world but I'm coming from Mac OS X, not linux so I already know the bash | 18:22 |
| ragehead | now windows* sorry | 18:22 |
| ragehead | I need more coffee | 18:22 |
| ragehead | not* yikes! | 18:22 |
| BluesKaj | ragehead, in the run comman, kdesudo kate /etc/default/grub | 18:23 |
| BluesKaj | command | 18:23 |
| BluesKaj | run command ,right click on the desktop, or alt+F2 | 18:24 |
| BluesKaj | after editing save, then run sudo update-grub in the terminal | 18:26 |
| ragehead | thank you guys, I will now try to reboot and see if it worked. it's just a workaround, but a workaround is still better than having to reset manually at every boot | 18:26 |
| ragehead | hopefully brb | 18:26 |
| ragehead | re | 18:36 |
| BluesKaj | ragehead, this is what my grub looks like if you need to compare http://pastebin.ca/3287376 | 18:36 |
| ragehead | it doesn't seem to be working when grub is showing up, I guess it has to do with some kind of fallback mode the OS utilizes when it sees that it wasn't shut down properly | 18:37 |
| ragehead | the issue remains | 18:37 |
| BluesKaj | not shutting down properly? | 18:38 |
| ragehead | BluesKaj: thank you for your help, I just compared them and there doesn't seem to be a difference | 18:38 |
| denza242 | ragehead: I might be able to help, what's the problem exactly (I joined a bit after you and 'Kaj were talking) | 18:38 |
| ragehead | yes, I mean when I first boot, the cryptsetup asks for the pw of the boot partition and I can see the pw field where I need to enter my pw | 18:39 |
| BluesKaj | ragehead, which kubuntu? | 18:39 |
| ragehead | however I can't type anything and have to reset the computer manually. then, the next boot, the screens stay black but I can type in the pw and it boots up | 18:39 |
| ragehead | denza242: thanks :) | 18:39 |
| ragehead | it's kubuntu 15.10 | 18:40 |
| denza242 | ragehead: GPU vendor? | 18:40 |
| BluesKaj | are your packages up to date | 18:40 |
| ragehead | yes, everything is up to date and I have an AMD card with the proprietary drivers | 18:41 |
| ragehead | wait a second, I got an idea: maybe I need to pick the other driver that end in "-updates" | 18:41 |
| BluesKaj | there's a lot of upgrading going on to plasma 5 | 18:42 |
| ragehead | fglrx-updates I mean | 18:42 |
| BluesKaj | ragehead, no don't choose the -updates driver | 18:42 |
| BluesKaj | fglrx should work | 18:43 |
| ragehead | okay | 18:43 |
| BluesKaj | wait until the packages to you resktop etc are upgraded then if there still apoblem , the experiment with the gpu driver | 18:44 |
| BluesKaj | desktop even | 18:44 |
| ragehead | okay, will do | 18:45 |
| ragehead | until then I guess I'll have to push the button when booting up | 18:45 |
| BluesKaj | ragehead, do sudo apt-get dist-update | 18:46 |
| ragehead | it's more of an cosmetic issue, but I guess you know it is, one always wants to have it working perfectly | 18:46 |
| BluesKaj | oops, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 18:46 |
| ragehead | I see, I noticed ;D | 18:47 |
| ragehead | something got updated, I will try again | 18:47 |
| BluesKaj | the reason is that kernel upgrades usually require a dist-upgrade | 18:49 |
| BluesKaj | oops, he's gone again | 18:49 |
| ragehead | re | 19:12 |
| ragehead | I tried updating and upgrading, it didn't work | 19:12 |
| BluesKaj | the reason is that kernel upgrades usually require an apt-get dist-upgrade | 19:14 |
| ragehead | I don't seem to be first one having this problem, however all the fixes I can find are fixes for distros that use init instead of systemd and I cannot find a way to configure my systemd to include usb ehci usb uhci and usb ohci modules | 19:14 |
| ragehead | I did that | 19:14 |
| BluesKaj | usb modules for what? | 19:15 |
| ragehead | https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/slackware-14/non-working-usb-keyboard-at-luks-prompt-14-1-a-4175484332/ e.g. | 19:15 |

| === root is now known as Guest64204 | ||
| BluesKaj | if you installed a non-default kernel then it's not easy to track don your problems, so i'd be wary of that kind of fix | 19:19 |
| ragehead | okay, but it's the standard kernel and this issue exists since install | 19:20 |
| BluesKaj | I'd research drivers for your gpu, perhaps fglrx isn't the correct driver...amd seems to have several choixes that sort of work , but not perfectly | 19:23 |
| ragehead | I now added some entries to initramfs, I will now try it again | 19:23 |
| Simonious | I followed the instructions here: http://elinux.org/BeagleBoardUbuntu#Ubuntu_.2814.04.3.29 starting with wget... and it boots, things are working, but apt-get update gives: http://pastebin.com/ZDFzADYq - I'm still poking at it, but I'd welcome suggestions to get apt-get working properly. | 19:25 |
| BluesKaj | Simonious, don't run as root, and make sure your sources.list is correct for your kubuntu version | 19:27 |
| Simonious | BluesKaj: I don't know how to make sure the sources.list is correct - it's a clean, fresh, new download.. *shrugs* | 19:28 |
| BluesKaj | Simonious, run, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 19:29 |
| BluesKaj | not as root just use sudo | 19:30 |
| Simonious | BluesKaj: looks like the same result at first glance: http://pastebin.com/sAK6FRCq | 19:32 |
| BluesKaj | Simonious, what's this /root$ | 19:34 |
| Simonious | my current working dir | 19:34 |
| BluesKaj | is this a raspi setup , arm architecture | 19:34 |
| Simonious | it's where I happened to be when I switched out of the root account - no, it's a Beaglebone Black | 19:34 |
| Simonious | I did this on a raspi last week and that worked fine. | 19:35 |
| Simonious | might end up going back to that.. had some file system crashes on that though | 19:35 |
| Simonious | May have just been a bad SD card, might be worth giving it another chance. | 19:35 |
| BluesKaj | best to ask in #raspberrypi | 19:37 |
| ragehead | re | 19:43 |
| ragehead | I tried adding some entries other people claimed on the launchpad bugtracker to be the fixed with no success. I don't care anymore, most important thing is, that this thing boots - no matter how | 19:44 |
| Simonious | BluesKaj: well hand editig resolv.conf worked, though it does specify not to hand edit the file, cause it'll get overwritten. Still it's working for the moment, so I guess I'll burn that bridge when I get to it. | 19:45 |
| Simonious | thanks again | 19:45 |
| ragehead | ah yes, thanks BluesKaj, I forgot to mention this | 19:46 |
| BluesKaj | Simonious, you can edit your settings to /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base and they won't be overwritten despite the warning | 19:50 |
| Simonious | cool | 19:53 |
