[05:49] <hay207> hi guys , i played a little with sound settings, now it records sound only from linein but not from microphone
[07:25] <hay207> Hi, i played with sound settings a bit, now recording records only soundcard output but not microphone..
[08:31] <eribian> Good Morning
[08:31] <eribian> Is this the right place to ask for technical questions?
[09:08] <jubo2> G'morning
[09:08] <jubo2> still got that bigger laptop unable to boot to Kubuntu15.10
[09:10] <jubo2> How can I grab the system log and move that to the internet or another machine?
[09:11] <jubo2> using "dpkg - Repair broken packages" wants to install about-distro and kubuntu-desktop but was not able to authenticate them
[09:13] <jubo2> using the "safe mode" and then choosing resume normal boot gets the GUI up
[09:13] <valorie> jubo2: there is pastebinit - command-line pastebin client
[09:13] <jubo2> ok I install that
[09:14] <jubo2> ok and where is the system log?
[09:15] <jubo2> /var/ something
[09:15] <valorie> mm, let me look
[09:15] <jubo2> appears to be /var/log/syslog
[09:15] <valorie> the man says -i [filename] Use filename for input
[09:16] <jubo2> ok. rebooting
[09:16] <valorie> I assume it defaults to http://paste.ubuntu.com
[09:17] <jubo2> no networking in there
[09:18] <jubo2> I copied the syslog and rebooting to safe mode now
[09:27] <jubo2> I don't know what I'm looking for
[09:28] <jubo2> http://apaste.info/riW
[09:30] <jubo2> last thing it says is rsyslogd exiting
[09:32] <jubo2> I cp'd the /var/log/syslog to another file and opened that up when boot to safe mode
[09:32] <jubo2> am I getting the right file or the wrong file for figuring out what drops the booting to root shell
[09:32] <jubo2> I gotta visit the store now to purhase some coffee
[09:49] <jubo2> back
[09:49] <jubo2> no.. this is not the portion of the syslog that deals with the unsuccessfull startup
[09:50] <jubo2> it is just shutting down things
[09:50] <jubo2> I just assumed it'd be in the end of the file
[09:50] <valorie> 2am here, heading to bed
[09:51] <valorie> some help should be along soon....
[09:51] <jubo2> ok. thanks for your help
[09:57] <jubo2> I see some JACK errors
[09:58] <jubo2> I see also kernel message that it "failed to disable graphics turbo" just prior to rsyslogd exiting on signal 15
[10:02] <Walex2> jubo2: that looks like hw problems, like insufficient voltage or overheating
[10:09] <jubo2> Last signs of problem I saw before the system went to non-starting state was that some packages I tried to install with apt-get showed some errors
[10:09] <jubo2> other than that all was fine and kaboom, rootshell on startup
[10:12] <jubo2> the system stops and drops to root shell right after starting filesystem check
[10:13] <jubo2> the one that usually runs for couple of second
[10:13] <lordievader> Systemd shell?
[10:13] <jubo2> lordievader: "Welcome to emergency mode!"
[10:13] <jubo2> root@machine#
[10:13] <lordievader> Yeah, that is a systemd shell. A critical service failed to start.
[10:14] <jubo2> lordievader: last thing I did was to install some sort of LV2 instruments and filters for Ardour and that experienced some problems
[10:15] <jubo2> that's the only thing unusual I can remember before system went into the non-starting state
[10:15] <jubo2> what is the latest syslog file?
[10:16] <lordievader> jubo2: There ain't such a think anymore. Use journalctl and systemctl to figure out which service failed.
[10:16] <jubo2> ok. how do I do that?
[10:17] <jubo2> it's gotta be that the JACK ( which is set to autostart after system startup ) is causing the problem
[10:19] <jubo2> Someone halp!
[10:19] <jubo2> I should be getting into Xmasy mood and not "stupid main computer will not start"-mode
[10:22] <jubo2> no hold on
[10:22] <jubo2> the PulseAudio is set to start after startup
[10:23] <jubo2> the JACK is prlly loaded when starting up
[10:24] <jubo2> lordievader: how do I figure out what service failed to start and how to remedy that?
[10:24] <lordievader> Start with 'sudo systemctl --failed'.
[10:25] <jubo2> one item
[10:25] <jubo2> systemd-fsck
[10:26] <jubo2> It does display the "Checking disks" for a fraction of second before dropping to root shell
[10:26] <lordievader> So, you have a broken filesystem?
[10:26] <jubo2> I dunno
[10:26] <jubo2> Should I boot to safe mode and run the fsck there?
[10:26] <lordievader> Rather in a live-cd.
[10:27] <jubo2> ok. can totally do that
[10:27] <jubo2> booting to LiveCD now
[10:30] <jubo2> booted
[10:30] <jubo2> what's the command to check the disks?
[10:31] <lordievader> sudo fsck.ext4 /dev/<some-disk>
[10:31] <lordievader> Assuming you use ext4.
[10:33] <jubo2> "/dev/sda is in use"
[10:33] <jubo2> I'm supposed to point it to a partition I think
[10:33] <jubo2> but I don't recall the numbers of the partition
[10:35] <jubo2> I used 'ls -la /dev/disk/by-id/' to find the partition numbers
[10:36] <jubo2> lordievader: it complains that /dev/sda5 is mounted
[10:36] <jubo2> weird that I am in LiveCD
[10:36] <lordievader> Unmount it then...
[10:37] <jubo2> 'umount /dev/sda5' says "not mounted"
[10:37] <jubo2> yet the fsck says it is mounted
[10:38] <jubo2> /dev/sda7 should be the /home partition
[10:38] <jubo2> I fsck that
[10:38] <jubo2> it seems to have error
[10:38] <jubo2> ok. now what?
[10:39] <jubo2> retry booting with the /dev/sda7 fixed by fsck?
[10:39] <jubo2> the /dev/sda5 gotta be the SWAP
[10:39] <jubo2> only rational explanation why it is mounted in LiveCD run
[10:40] <lordievader> jubo2: cat /proc/swaps
[10:40] <jubo2> already rebooting
[10:41] <jubo2> IT IS UP!
[10:41]  * jubo2 hugs lordievader
[10:44] <jubo2> Feels good to be back
[10:45] <jubo2> Mah compuutttaaahs operational
[10:47] <jubo2> Oh noes
[10:47] <jubo2> another woe
[10:47] <jubo2> audio volume super-super-super quiet
[10:48] <jubo2> I've checked that loudspeakers are loud and that volume on the computer is full
[10:52] <jubo2> is there a volume control in pulse
[10:52] <jubo2> I got JACK + PulseAudio bridged to JACK for non-pro audio programs to output sound too
[10:53] <jubo2> I reboot and see what happens
[10:58] <jubo2> Reboot didn't change a thing
[10:59] <jubo2> Still can hear the audio from the PulseAudio -> JACK bridge very very silent
[12:05] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[12:30] <hay207> hi, my microphonenis not working, i can only record soundcard output
[12:38] <BluesKaj> hay207, open alsamixer in the terminal and make sure your mic volumes are turned up.
[12:39] <hay207> i did
[12:39] <hay207> im thinking to reconfigure pulseaudio
[12:40] <BluesKaj> which audio chip ?
[12:41] <hay207> intel  hda
[12:41] <hay207> Conexant CX20751/2
[12:41] <hay207> as alsamixer says
[12:42] <hay207> i tried changing phonon, pavucontrol too
[12:42] <BluesKaj> then you don't need pulseaudio. it's just a another layer of audio processing with switches
[12:43] <hay207> the problem is that it was working , idk what i did to miss it up
[12:43] <hay207> i uninstall pulseaudio?
[12:43] <hay207> mess*
[12:44] <hay207> i try deleting ~/config/pulse
[12:45] <BluesKaj> I have intel hda, and I purged pulseaudio, buyt you may want to keep it if it was working earlier
[13:01] <prillian5> I have do an upgrade to 15.10 and KDE5. Now I have following Problem:
[13:02] <prillian5> Chrome ask on each startup to be defaultbrowser... choosing yes or no effect in nothing... on next startup the question appear again
[13:02] <prillian5> kontact: Ask me everytime for kwallet-Passwort (even if i set "allow everytime access".
[13:03] <prillian5> And kmail ask everytime to allow expired certificate (even if I choose "save setting forever"
[13:03] <prillian5> whats on with kde ... it's a crap.
[13:11] <iulian> prillian5: You could try going to settings->applications and change the default for web browser to chromium instead of "use application based on link contents".
[13:15] <BluesKaj> prillian5, open system settings>account details>KDE Wallet>Wallet Preferences Tab, uncheck the box beside "enable the KDE wallet subsystem"
[13:15] <prillian5> BluesKaj:  I wan't to use Kwallet
[13:16] <prillian5> But to request all the time the passwort sucks. Before in KDE4 I never had this problem.
[13:17] <prillian5> iulian: It's set to google-chrome
[13:17] <prillian5> works like a charm in KDE4 before
[13:17] <BluesKaj> ok, I never use kwallet so I can't help
[13:19] <hay207> hi, what's the difference between buildin audio analog stereo and monitor of buildin audio analog stereo  ,found  in pavucontrol
[13:22] <BluesKaj> hay207, the first is alsa analog stereo and it hands off the signal to pulseaudio/pavucontrol
[13:23] <BluesKaj> hands off= connects to
[13:25] <hay207> second?
[13:28] <hay207> BluesKaj: and the second?
[13:29] <BluesKaj> is puseaudio/pavucontrol
[13:29] <BluesKaj> pulseaudio/pavucontro
[14:40] <alejo0107> Hi
[14:48] <kitty_> am not getting any sound in my system
[14:50] <BluesKaj> kitty_, the usual problem is automute is enabled in alsamixer
[14:51] <kitty_> how to solve that problem then  ?
[14:54] <BluesKaj> kitty_, open a termina/konsole type alsamixer, then navigatre with the arrow keys to the automute and use the down arrow key to disable automute
[14:55] <BluesKaj> then use escape key to exit alsmixer, then type sudo alsactl store and enter , there will be no output if it is saved correctly
[15:01] <kitty_> in alsamixer there is nothing as called automute.
[15:01] <soee_> juch channels
[15:01] <soee_> if any is muted
[15:01] <kitty_> there is S/PDIF , S/PDIF 1 , S/PDIF 2
[15:01] <BluesKaj> it's to far right, it might be hidden
[15:04] <BluesKaj> ok open alsmixer again,  F6, choose default
[15:05] <BluesKaj> kitty_,^
[15:05] <kitty_> its already default only
[15:05] <BluesKaj> what other choices are listed in F6?
[15:06] <kitty_> 0 HDA intel HDMI ,1 HDA intel PCH
[15:09] <BluesKaj> try 0 hda , that should be your default soundcard as listed in system settings>multimedia>device preference
[15:12] <kitty_> after selecting 0 hda , shall i exit alsamixer?
[15:14] <BluesKaj> kitty_, did you check automute is disabled?
[15:16] <kitty_> still automute is not listed anywhere.?
[15:16] <kitty_> i dont know how to check autmute
[15:17] <BluesKaj> does alsamixer show several volume controls after \choosing 0 HDA?
[15:19] <kitty_> no . everything is same as previous exceptthat card name and chip name has changed
[15:21] <kitty_> all i know is that it is not toggle mute,i.e., toggle mute disabled
[15:24] <BluesKaj> ok, kitty you need to change to hda in system settings>multimedia>device preference, use the test button on the bottom right to listen for a sound , unless you have pulseaudio as the default
[15:26] <BluesKaj> kitty_, escape from alsamixer for naow
[15:26] <kitty_> ok
[15:27] <hay207> i m following
[15:48] <moni> hello
[15:48] <moni> i just having ubuntu 15.10 is it possible to upgrade to kubuntu
[15:52] <BluesKaj> what's your setup ? you can add kubuntu-desktop and choose which desktop environment you want to usea t login or you can do a clean kubuntu install
[15:53] <BluesKaj> moni, do you have separate / and /home paritions?
[15:56] <moni> blueska, yes i think  so
[15:56] <moni> do u mean separate drives/
[15:57] <BluesKaj> they could be on separate drives , but the usual pratice is separate partitions on the same drive
[16:00] <BluesKaj> moni, I'm just thinking if you have them separate, then you could install kubuntu to / and set the /home mountpoint in the installer thereby saving your data, altho backing it up is recommended bvefore any type of OS install
[16:02] <moni> how to add kubuntu desktop Blueska//// i have windows in one drive and ubuntu in other drive (partition
[16:04] <ntz> hello
[16:04] <ntz> I'm attempting to fix the computer of my boss and nobody from whole #ubuntu is able to help me with one supposingly obvious thing:
[16:05] <ntz> if I type apt-get update it never finishes and I am unable to determine on what repo it stucks
[16:05] <ntz> some info here: http://fpaste.org/303999/45079833/raw/
[16:05] <ntz> ++ additional info here http://fpaste.org/304005/7992001/raw/
[16:05] <ntz> thanks much
[16:05] <BluesKaj> ok moni , open a terminal and do , sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade, then, sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[16:06] <moni> thanks blueska
[16:06] <moni> i try this
[16:10] <moni> blueskaj, what will be the difference between desktop and clean os environment ...
[16:15] <BluesKaj> ntz, moni with a clean install there no longer be any gtk/gnome/unity based packaged , just KDE/Kubuntu packages, so no duplication in the applications menu
[16:15] <ntz> for me ?
[16:15] <BluesKaj> oops ntz , sorry
[16:15] <ntz> no prob :)
[16:15] <ntz> unless you know the answer to my Q: also :)
[16:15] <ntz> nobody since friday was able to help in #buntu - it's wtf or hahaha .. I don't know
[16:16] <BluesKaj> ntz, check your sources list in the package manager, it shouldn't be 404-ing
[16:16] <ntz> BluesKaj: http://fpaste.org/303999/45079833/raw/ +++ http://fpaste.org/304005/7992001/raw/
[16:17] <BluesKaj> yeah i saw that ntz
[16:17] <ntz> I did it .... still no clue what I should disable in sources.list (and/or why)
[16:17] <BluesKaj> perhaps change the sources list server
[16:17] <ntz> I am not ubuntu guy - to be honest I hate ubuntu - so for me it's hard to solve it however I started with debian 15+ years in past so I dare to say, that I know regularly an ubuntu tools
[16:18] <ntz> BluesKaj: what did you mean with :: ``perhaps change the sources list server'' ?
[16:19] <moni> blueskaj it is taking 1 gb for kubuntu desktop...installing now. .. thanks for the help ;) blueskaj have a nice day :)
[16:28] <BluesKaj> ntz, open the software center>sources>configure software sources>in the resulting new gui choose download from dropdown and choose a different server
[16:32] <dny> hello. i have a quite fresh kubuntu installation. kde does not start anymore, i just get a black screen, not even the login panel. since the last reboot i have installed a few qt5 packages, maybe they broke something. any ideas what i could do?
[16:33] <BluesKaj> dny, were these qt5 packages installed by upgrading or from a ppa?
[16:34] <dny> i installed them witb aptget, but i think from the official rep
[16:34] <BluesKaj> so you didn't add appa to the reos?
[16:34] <BluesKaj> repos
[16:36] <dny> it was qt5-default, qttools5-dev-tools and qtdeclarative5-dev
[16:36] <dny> how can i check the repos from the console?
[16:38] <BluesKaj> dny, are you in a VT shell? ctl+alt+F2 for example
[16:39] <dny> yeah, i have that shell
[16:40] <dny> where is usually the kde is only a black screen
[16:40] <dny> and xorg log does not show anything weird
[16:40] <BluesKaj> nomodeset?
[16:42] <dny> what is that?
[16:44] <BluesKaj> dny, from the shell /VT  login and run sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade, or reboot and run the recovery kernel in grub, choose the repair
[16:46] <dny> i will try that, thank you
[16:46] <BluesKaj> repair in the gui that results
[16:47] <dny> but if i remember it correctly, grub does not show me any options, just boots immediately
[16:49] <BluesKaj> dny, hold the left shift key down right after the BIO??UEFI screen to get grub to appear
[16:49] <BluesKaj> BIOS/UEFI
[17:28] <dny> the system is now up to date. but the repair function did not help. still black screen... how can i manually start x or the window manager in kubuntu?
[17:31] <BluesKaj> dny, ctl+alt+F1-F6 , then login, then run sudo systemctl enable sddm , then startx
[17:34] <dny> does not work. "operation not supported". a restart gives me "unit sddm.service is masked"
[17:35] <dny> are there any lock files / mechanisms ? It might be the case that my last shutdown was not clean...
[18:03] <aotea> I just followed https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bumblebee as I had someone mention I needed it. And after installing the packages and rebooting I'm just left with a black screen. Can't even get into tty...
[18:04] <aotea> Or well, I get the kubuntu splash, then it goes black, hitting powerbutton brings the kubuntu splash back before shutting down.
[18:09] <dny> lost connection :( it seems that sddm was locked. still i just get a black screen instead of x...
[18:16] <dny> it seems i dont even have sddm installed. is that the current windiw managet for kubuntu?
[18:17] <dny> ok, with sddm installed i finally see the login screen, but i cannot login
[18:18] <dny> which packages do i need to reinstall? kind of weird that they just disappeared...
[19:49] <Taggnostr> is there a way to tell kubuntu/dolphin to use kB/MB/GB instead of KiB/MiB/GiB?
[19:54] <Taggnostr> it also seems against the ubuntu policies: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UnitsPolicy#Correct_basis
[19:59] <aotea> https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=91972 maybe?
[20:07] <kde_user> hi all just installed this realy great looking distro but theres one little thing i need help in, and its called kwallet
[20:26] <aotea> Why is the default portrait diffrent in login screen and lock screen?
[20:45] <kde_user> how does this work, we join and all stay silent?
[20:45] <hazamonzo> kde_user: usually you ask a question that someone has a chance of answering
[20:46] <kde_user> ah ok thanks, i asked one so ill wait a bit more
[20:47] <hazamonzo> for example, a bad question would look like this "I need help! Anyone there to help?!?". A good question would be something like "I tried x,y and z but im not sure why x isn't working. Is there anything else i can try ect?"
[20:47] <hazamonzo> kde_user: I saw your question. It wasn't a question. looked more like a statement. You need help with KWallet... Good for you?
[20:47] <hazamonzo> What do you need help with? :)
[20:48] <kde_user> i was trying not to sound stupid (fail!)
[20:48] <Taggnostr> aotea, I tried to check there, but 15.10 doesn't seem to have that option
[20:48] <hazamonzo> kde_user: There are no stupid question :)
[20:48] <hazamonzo> *questions
[20:49] <hazamonzo> kde_user: So whats your issue with Kwallet?
[20:51] <kde_user> i installed kubuntu 15.10 fired up my kmail and kwallet popped up i gave it a password and on reboot it asked for the password but i get system failure -9 and cant sign in to kwallet
[20:52] <hazamonzo> kde_user: Ouch. That does sound nasty. And its the same password you used the first time right?
[20:52] <kde_user> yes
[20:54] <hazamonzo> kde_user: I tried to google if i could find an error like that relating to kwallet but there is very little out there
[20:55] <kde_user> thats my only gripe i cant find a tutorial or anything of that nature about kwallet
[20:56] <kde_user> mystery wallet
[20:56] <hazamonzo> kde_user: Well its usually pretty simple. Its stored password for you. Thats about it!
[20:56] <hazamonzo> You could open the wallet manager and try to remove the stored password for KMail maybe?
[20:58] <kde_user> i did that first then i did (mv kdewallet.kwl kdewallet.kwl.bak) and (mv kdewallet.salt kdewallet.salt.bak)
[20:58] <kde_user> restarted fresh then same thing happenned again
[21:01] <BluesKaj> kde_user, seems kwallet is buggy after the last upgrade .. you're the 3rd persoin to ask about  kwallet errors since yesterday
[21:02] <hazamonzo> uh oh
[21:02] <BluesKaj> dunno if disabling kwallet helps tho
[21:02] <hazamonzo> Nobody upgrade! :D
[21:02] <BluesKaj> I don't use it myself , so i can't help much
[21:03] <kde_user> i hope that gets fixed, its the most logical program to use on this sytem, and yes i disabled it
[21:03] <kde_user> system*
[21:05] <BluesKaj> kde you could check launchpad for filed bugs and perhaps a fix
[21:05] <BluesKaj> kde_user,^
[21:06] <kde_user> if its a bug then i can wait until the fix gets out for everyone
[21:06] <BluesKaj> anyway I'm done for the day........later
[21:08] <kde_user> im out thanks for listening ;)
[21:19] <aotea> Anyone mind trying to open System Settings -> Displays & Monitors, then enter "Compositor" before heading back "Display Configuration" then hitting the back arrow to get into Overview
[21:19] <aotea> Tried it 6 times in a row and caught Segmentation faults everytime
[21:26] <krise> i downloaded skype installation file from skype website and installed it to my laptop.When im tryng to run it , it loads a little time and disapears.when im tryng to uninstall skype it it wont uninstall.What a heck ?
[21:29] <aotea> Trying to submit a bugreport, found a report that sounds similar that I want to connect my report to, but clicking "Suggest crash is related" does nothing but hightligts the button, clickin close and going next I'm alerted I didn't connect it to existing report...
[21:45] <valorie> krise: why are you downloading it from the site?
[21:45] <valorie> !info skype
[21:45] <valorie> !skype
[21:46] <valorie> downloading from various sites can be dangerous; this is why we have a packaging system
[21:47] <genii> It's in the partner repo
[21:47] <genii> !partner
[22:02] <krise> yes i read about that later when i had the problem already, i installed skype after that thru muon and problem still exist. I tried to remove skype but it wont uninstall
[22:10] <ejay> Hi all. Is there any way to configure magnify glass in okular?
[23:25] <hay207> hi guys, can i install gnome side by side with kde on kubuntu?
[23:25] <josharenson> hay207: I have kde and gnome installed on _ubuntu_
[23:25] <josharenson> so it should work
[23:26] <josharenson> hay207: but I'm currently debugging some weird display manager conflicts....
[23:34] <josharenson> hay207: yeah, if you run into issues, just remove sddm and use lightdm or gdm
[23:34] <josharenson> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sddm/+bug/1446760
[23:37] <hay207> why using sddm?
[23:37] <hay207> there are better alternatives like gdm
[23:37] <hay207> or kdm
[23:47] <hay207> how i mark a topic as duplicate in askubuntu?
