[00:16] <shurtagul> Why doesnt the gutar tabs applet work in amarok? the wikipedia used to not but it randomly started to, maybe after I upgraded stuff..
[00:17] <valorie> shurtagul: you might check their kde-apps page or whereever the code is
[00:17] <valorie> it's a plugin, not a part of amarok
[00:54] <shurtagul> Also muon disappeared since I moved to the unstable channel.
[02:01] <valorie> shurtagul: muon, or muon package-manager?
[02:01] <valorie> and by "unstable channel" do you mean kci-unstable?
[02:37] <shurtagul> both
[02:37] <shurtagul> and I believe, I added the ppa and upgraded
[02:40] <shurtagul> "Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming." Then goes on to show unmet dependencies.
[02:51] <Sine_> Is this channel for support?
[02:51] <Sine_> Having an issue with 15.10 install.
[03:05] <derekc> Seems after the 3rd or 4th update on Wily I have been getting the 5 key repeating it self even though it's never been pressed.  I don't have another keyboard to test if it's hardware but I did open the keyboard and the board and contacts all seem fine but I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing this and maybe it's software related?
[03:13] <Dragnslcr> derekc- I have seen that once or twice, but I assumed it was just my keyboard. Pressing any other key stopped it.
[03:40] <Sine_> Installation is hanging on Preparing install right before selecting disks
[07:53] <jie__> how can I install wubi in kubuntu?
[08:08] <hateball> !wubi | jie__
[08:08] <hateball> jie__: Note the "Do not use" part.
[08:09] <jie__> WO
[08:09] <jie__> fcitx
[08:09] <jie__> Sorry.
[08:09] <jie__> Do don't see.
[08:10] <jie__> I mean Wubi input method for Chinese.
[08:10] <jie__> It's like Pinyin input method.
[08:16] <hateball> !info ibus-table-wubi
[08:16] <hateball> I have no idea, but this seems to be a package
[08:18] <jie__> In Ubuntu I can through "setting->Language->Support Language" add Chinese
[08:19] <jie__> then through "text entry" add wubi input method.
[08:19] <jie__> but in Kubuntu I can't.
[08:19] <jie__> I must install ibus manually.
[08:20] <jie__> I just want to is have a easy way to have a Chinese input method.
[08:37] <hateball> jie__: maybe they know more in #ubuntu-cn
[08:37] <hateball> !cn
[08:37] <jie__> Ok, thank you.
[12:18] <BluesKaj> Howdy all
[13:03] <mausschubser> hallo, itś me again
[13:03] <mausschubser> still the intel 915 chip
[13:04] <mausschubser> with the same problem as in 14.04
[13:04] <mausschubser> my buttons to close, maximize or minimise a window are gone
[13:04] <mausschubser> kde5 is crap
[13:05] <mausschubser> it`s beta
[13:05] <BluesKaj> kde5 doesn't exist
[13:05] <mausschubser> but you are forced to use it, instead of 4
[13:06] <BluesKaj> it's just kde with plasma 5
[13:06] <mausschubser> does anyone know a possibility to use kde 4 under kubuntu 15.04?
[13:06] <mausschubser> it`s the same
[13:06] <s_20> mausschubser: uh, no
[13:06] <s_20> it's depracated
[13:06] <BluesKaj> nope, I stick with 14.04.3
[13:06] <mausschubser> i have the problem for 4 days now
[13:07] <s_20> you might want to try a different distribution then
[13:07] <mausschubser> upgrading, upgrading, updating
[13:07] <mausschubser> i am running kubuntu for years
[13:07] <mausschubser> i never had such a problem
[13:07] <s_20> so have i, at work, debian at home
[13:07] <s_20> but the upgrade to 5.* was less than smooth
[13:08] <s_20> then i switched to debian (and kde) at work as well, smooth sailing so far
[13:08] <mausschubser> nice words
[13:08] <mausschubser> in the older plasma 5 it worked
[13:08] <mausschubser> but the system was slow, no german
[13:09] <mausschubser> after updating to the latest , my bad, it's that catastrophe, again
[13:10] <mausschubser> s_20: i don't have the time to set up a whole new system
[13:10] <BluesKaj> I have 15.10 on my laptop with the i915 driver for intel gpu , but no problems that you describe mausschubser. Are you using a downloaded theme for desktop?
[13:10] <mausschubser> hmm
[13:10] <mausschubser> might be
[13:10] <mausschubser> let me check
[13:20] <Smurphy> mausschubser: You should use a different window manager theme !
[13:20] <Smurphy> that's all.
[13:29] <BluesKaj> Smurphy, think he's embarassed after all his complaining and criticism, hasn't returned
[13:31] <Smurphy> prolly ...
[13:32] <Smurphy> BTW - do you by chance know if there is a PPA for Plasma 5.5 -> Kubuntu 15.10 ?
[13:36] <BluesKaj> Smurphy, the plasma 5.5 package isn't ready for kubuntu, but it should be in the backports in a few days from what i was told by the devs yesterday
[13:36] <mausschubser> back
[13:37] <Smurphy> ah nice. Thx for the info. I won't be able to check it out until after christmas, but I'll give it a try.
[13:37] <Smurphy> mausschubser: You should use a different window manager theme !
[13:37] <mausschubser> BluesKaj: kwin-x11 was missing, I installed
[13:37] <Smurphy> If that does not work, delete all the caches.
[13:37] <mausschubser> Smurphy: it was the default one, thanks
[13:37] <Smurphy> those related to the plasmashell -> cd ~/.cache && rm -rf plasmashell
[13:38] <BluesKaj> interesting , hwe could kwin-X11 be missing
[13:38] <BluesKaj> how
[13:38] <Smurphy> Do that from the console (after switching down -> Ctrl-Alt-F1, login, and remove it.
[13:38] <mausschubser> Smurphy: i already solved it! Thank you
[13:38] <Smurphy> ah - ok.
[13:38] <mausschubser> :-)
[13:38] <mausschubser> i don have a clue
[13:38] <mausschubser> `t
[13:39] <mausschubser> thanks for your help and merry christmas to everybody
[13:39] <mausschubser> bye
[13:39] <Smurphy> cya
[13:40] <Smurphy> found out why I couldn't start mysql on my Kubuntu.
[13:40] <Smurphy> because I run it off a SSD - I tend to mount /var/log, /var/run and some other directories from tmpfs -> Ramfs.
[13:41] <Smurphy> When I boot up - I create the directory structure and files required by some programs manually out of rc.local.
[13:41] <Smurphy> When mysql does not find /var/run/mysqld and /var/log/mysql owned by user mysql - it won't start.
[13:52] <Maxiride> i've read the announcement of plasma 5.5.1 on the kde website but I didn't understood if it's still a beta or if I will be able to install it shortyl on kubuntu 15.10
[13:55] <BluesKaj> Maxiride, it should be in he backports in a few days
[13:56] <BluesKaj> the
[13:57] <Maxiride> BluesKaj:  ins't the backports repo for testing\unstable software?
[13:58] <BluesKaj> !backports
[13:58] <Maxiride> my fault, must have misunderstood the "back" part of "backports" xD
[13:58] <Maxiride> thanks
[14:02] <soee> i dourb in will be in backports in a few days
[14:02] <soee> *doubt
[14:03] <BluesKaj> gotta keep their hopes up , when all th eother distros already have 5.5 in their repos, soee
[14:04] <BluesKaj> soee, so what's your prediction for 5.5?
[14:05] <soee> 5.5.1 is on TODO list for Xenial - probably not started yet
[14:05] <soee> it has to get into Xenial than backports will start
[14:05] <BluesKaj> he was asking about 15.10
[14:49] <BluesKaj> !es
[15:36] <veqz_> why is the only two options for downloading kubuntu at kubuntu.org 14.04 or 15.10? 15.10 doesn't like my optimus laptop, so I would like to go back to 15.04.
[15:36] <s_20> veqz_: because that's how ubuntu releases work
[15:36] <s_20> either you take the latest or a LTS release
[15:37] <veqz_> 15.04 wasn't an LTS?
[15:38] <s_20> they happen every 2 years
[15:38] <Veqz> ah ok
[15:38] <genii> Veqz: Nope
[15:38] <Veqz> so is there any support for 15.04 still? I found the iso on my disk, but would it just be useless to install it now?
[15:38] <genii> 8.04, 10.04, 12.04, 14.04, next is 16.04 April next year
[15:39] <genii> !vivid
[15:39] <Veqz> ah ok
[15:39] <Veqz> thanks
[15:39] <genii> Veqz: As you can see, it will be EOL in Jan
[15:39] <Veqz> useless then
[15:41] <Veqz> I'll try to live with this then, or see if I find another distro until 16.04. :)
[15:57] <CrystalMare> I'm trying to load a script from a shortcut
[15:57] <CrystalMare> I've set the shortcut to the .sh file and made sure its executeable
[15:58] <CrystalMare> But if I press the screenshot, nothing happens
[15:58] <CrystalMare> If I click the script in dolphin, it runs just fine
[15:58] <CrystalMare> err*
[15:58] <CrystalMare> shortcut, not screenshot
[16:02] <genii> CrystalMare: Do you have a shebang on the first line of the script?
[16:02] <CrystalMare> Yes
[16:03] <BluesKaj> think if it's an executable file then you need to creat a link not a shortcut
[16:03] <CrystalMare> It's a .sh file
[16:03] <CrystalMare> #!/bin/bash
[16:03] <Smurphy> and is it executable ? chmod 755 <filename>
[16:03] <Smurphy> Then, you need to make sure that files from your directory are allowed to be executed
[16:04] <CrystalMare> It's just one file
[16:04] <Smurphy> And - last but not least - if you expect something to happen, tell it to be executed in a console/terminal;
[16:05] <CrystalMare> Smurphy, https://i.imgur.com/cuhmz0A.png
[16:05] <CrystalMare> There's a . at the beginning of the path
[16:06] <CrystalMare> There's no option to start it in a terminal
[16:08] <Smurphy> Oh - but there is: "konsole -e ~/scripts/sync_home.sh"
[16:09] <Smurphy> That's what I use. Starts konsole which in turn starts the script and displays me what it does.
[16:09] <CrystalMare> But I do not need the terminal at all
[16:09] <CrystalMare> So can I start konsole in 'invisible' mode or something ?
[16:09] <Smurphy> What does that script do ?
[16:10] <CrystalMare> It allows me to select a region of my screen, and then it makes a snap and uploads it to imgur
[16:11] <Smurphy> eventually you have to set the DISPLAY Variable inside the script. Don't know if it is provider with it.
[16:11] <Smurphy> Start it with the konsole, and see what it returns.
[16:11] <Smurphy> As means of debugging.
[16:12] <Smurphy> Unfortunately, I'll have to leave soon :( I have a 500Km drive ahead.
[16:12] <CrystalMare> https://gist.github.com/CrystalMare/c581d1400bfe7bfabfc3
[16:13] <Smurphy> So - looks like it is working.
[16:14] <CrystalMare> How do I go about configuring konsole -e ~/script
[16:14] <CrystalMare> Because if I put that in the Custom Shortcuts and press Apply
[16:14] <CrystalMare> it removes it again
[16:15] <Smurphy> Can't tell. Sorry. I usually do all on the console
[16:15] <CrystalMare> So I can't just run a script from a shortcut ?
[16:31] <CrystalMare> Smurphy, I found the problem
[16:31] <CrystalMare> Doing CTRL + SHIFT + 4 is saved as CTRL + $
[16:31] <CrystalMare> But when you execute it, it doesnt see the $
[16:38] <Smurphy> yep. Correct.

[21:32] <JaX> Hello
[21:33] <JaX> I have one question, can i install a *i686.deb on Kubuntu 64bits?
[21:50] <JaX> I have one question, can i install a *i386.deb on Kubuntu 64bits?
[21:53] <genii> Usually.
[21:54] <genii> JaX: All the *buntu have shipped with multiarch built in for some time now, they run 64 or 32 bit things.
[21:55] <JaX> Thank you, so multi arch works fine ? Because in my Debian don't work
[21:55] <genii> JaX: Although if this is some mystery deb, it might be putting things in /usr/lib32 instead of the new standardized place in /lib/i386-linux-gnu
[21:56] <genii> JaX: What are you trying to install, and on what version of Kubuntu?
[21:57] <JaX> So un Ubuntu, deb multiarch works fine, not like debian ?
[21:57] <JaX> Skype & TW
[21:57] <genii> JaX: You can install Skype from Canonical repositories if you enable partner repositories
[21:58] <JaX> Thanks, but have publicity in Skype, no ?
[21:58] <genii> ( no need then to manually dpkg -i deb)
[21:58] <JaX> And trackers of Canonical
[21:58] <genii> Not that I'm aware of.
[21:59] <BlueProtoman> What exactly does KDE's "Activities" feature do?
[22:00] <JaX> Don't understand ^^'
[22:00] <JaX> You know, the Ubuntu tracker, he's only on Unity ? Or on all versions
[22:02] <soee> BlueProtoman: Activities are something liek Virtial Desktop were, but here you can bind some apps to activities, show only fiels used on each activity in menu, pasue/disable activity and bring it back when you want etc. :)
[22:02] <JaX> Excuse my English i'm french ^^ it's the reason i don't understand all
[22:03] <soee> i think in new Frameworks there is also option to make activity pricvate
[22:32] <JaX> Kubuntu have a tracker like Ubuntu ?
[22:43] <clivejo> Tracker?
[22:56] <JaX> clivejo: Ubuntu contain a tracker with searchs etc
[22:57] <clivejo> oh the Unity online search?
[22:57] <clivejo> Kubunbu used KDE desktop not Unity
[22:57] <clivejo> uses
[23:36] <JaX> Yeah you know,
[23:36] <JaX> I have see : Ubuntu contain a rat/informer
[23:37] <JaX> For canonical i think
[23:53] <denza242> JaX: what
[23:54] <JaX> denza242: i have see Ubuntu contain a "tracker"
[23:55] <denza242> JaX: oh you mean the whole unity scopes debacle? That's fixed now
[23:56] <JaX> Tracker is not on Ubuntu now ?
[23:56] <denza242> JaX: it is not on ubuntu now
[23:56] <JaX> Thank you
[23:57] <JaX> So Ubuntu is clean ?
[23:57] <JaX> Like debian ?
[23:59] <valorie> what do you mean by "clean"?
