ussher_I've lost the global keyboard shortcut location.  I want the one that "switch to desktop to the left" (and right).  I'm pretty sure its somewhere in "Global Keyboard Shortcuts" but cant seam to locate it in 14.0402:38
valorieussher_: I use krunner to find things like that02:45
valoriealt+f4 usually, then just type switch desktop or so02:46
ussher_havent used krunner before, Ill look. thanks02:46
valorieoh, you are in for some kde-pleasure then02:47
ussher_ah, yes i have, but didnt know what it was called.02:47
ussher_i usually use terminal02:47
valorieso useful for so many things02:47
valoriesure, but krunner is right there02:47
valoriealthough I use yakuake so the terminal is right there as well02:48
ussher_that brings up lots of changelog.txt files for me.  I want to set my page left / page right keys to switch desktops, but its something you do once, then it always works, so I've forgotten where to set it. setting up my laptop.02:48
ussher_think i've found it though under Workspace behaviour -> 'Virtual Desktops'02:50
ussher_yup02:50
ussher_thanks valorie, I'll be good til the next time I setup a laptop. :)02:50
valoriecool02:50

Alok_But the UI was awesome...06:20
Alok_not sure of 15.406:20
yeuoaI am having a difficult time figuring out how to format my usb drive06:21
yeuoadolphin doesn't give an option..06:21
yeuoai havent found any information from google that has helped at all06:23
ChronotossHave you tried a pratition program like gparted? or just looked up the fdisk command? I think it's the fdisk command ... I have to look it up everytime I do it aswell.06:23
valorie!partition06:23
ubottuFor help with partitioning a new install see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PartitioningSchemes l - For partitioning programs see !GParted, or !PartitionManager (!Kubuntu 9.04 and up) - Other partitioning topics include !fstab !home and !swap06:23
yeuoayes i did try gparted..06:23
Chronotossthank you Valorie!06:24
valorieChronotoss: ubottu has all kinds of useful stuff06:24
yeuoaafter using gparted ive tried to use unetbootin t06:24
valorie:-)06:24
yeuoaand it tells me i must first mount the usb drive to the mountpoint06:24
valorieyeuoa: dd always works....06:24
valorie!fstab06:24
ubottuThe /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions06:24

valorieok, both work06:25
yeuoahrm06:25
yeuoai installed kubuntu...06:25
yeuoafrom a usb drive.06:25
valorieok06:25
yeuoai am needing to format this usb drive, so i can put xubuntu on it06:25
valoriethat's how most of us do it06:25
yeuoakubuntu is running really slow06:26
valorieok06:26
valorie!dd06:26
yeuoai cant get kubuntu off the damn usb stick06:26
yeuoabecause the geniuses that made this didnt add a format option06:26
valoriewhen you try to put xubuntu on it, it will remove kubuntu06:26
yeuoait will not let me....it tells me i have to first mount it to a mountpoint06:26
yeuoaand that is using unetbootin06:27
valorieso use dd06:27
yeuoawtf is dd?06:27
valorieor kde-partition-manager06:27
ChronotossRun the following command, replacing /dev/sdx with your drive, e.g. /dev/sdb. (do not append a partition number, so do not use something like /dev/sdb1)06:27
Chronotossdd bs=4M if=/path/to/archlinux.iso of=/dev/sdx && sync06:27
Chronotossfrom my notes on dd06:27
Chronotossoff the wiki for arch06:27
yeuoais there a terminal command to format ?06:28
yeuoasurely there is06:28
valoriehttp://askubuntu.com/questions/372607/how-to-create-a-bootable-ubuntu-usb-flash-drive-from-terminal06:28
valorieyeuoa: dd is the one06:28
yeuoawhat does dd stand for?06:28
Chronotossdisk destroyer06:30
yeuoaok06:30
ChronotossBut really you just point the code correctly and wait and it works.06:30
valoriehttp://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/manual/html_node/dd-invocation.html#dd-invocation06:30
valorieor man dd from the commandline06:31
valorie*wait* being the important part06:31
valorieit's not fast06:31
valoriejust good06:31
yeuoai can't get kubuntu to mount my usb drive..06:31
valoriegood enough to wreck your HD if you do the command wrong06:31
yeuoaso its hard getting anything to work at this point06:31
ChronotossTrue that.06:31
yeuoai even restarted the computer before i came in here..its not working06:32
valorieyeuoa: the device manager doesn't see it?06:32
yeuoano06:32
valorieand yet you installed from it06:32
Chronotossyou should be able to see your drive with lsblk command06:32
yeuoavalorie, it was working fine until i used gparted a few ago06:32
valorieah06:33
valoriethen unfortunately it might be wrecked06:33
valoriethey seem to die rather easily06:33
yeuoaChronotoss, yes lsblk finds the drive06:33
Chronotossokay so it's not mounted, gparted will unmount a disk before use.06:34
valoriecool06:34
Chronotossyou can still dd to install then whoo!06:34
yeuoaim getting nowhere here06:36
valoriedon't let me scare you out of using dd06:37
yeuoadd: failed to open ‘/path/to/archlinux.iso’: No such file or directory06:37
valoriedo you have the iso of xubuntu downloaded and verified?06:37
valorie!06:37
yeuoayes06:37
valorieyou put that path to *that* there06:38
yeuoai see.06:38
yeuoai am a newb bear with me06:38
valorie like ~/Downloads/xubuntu.iso <--- only use the real path, and real name06:38
yeuoagot it06:38
valorieand it must be exact06:39
Chronotossif you want to know the path to the file, right click it and go to properties, then that's your path, then add the filename at the end.06:39
yeuoaok maybe its working now06:40
yeuoathe drive is flashing...but i dont see any progress bars or anything heh06:40
ChronotossYouwont06:40
yeuoaok06:40
yeuoaand you say this takes a long time?06:41
Chronotossdepends on the file and speed of the bus your working with. for me it was two minutes for a ~500 meg06:41
yeuoaok06:41
yeuoaxubuntu was 1g06:41
yeuoaand this is creating a bootable iso image on the usb06:42
yeuoa?06:42
valoriemost of the isos are a gig, yeah06:42
valorieyes06:42
yeuoaok06:42
valorieyeuoa: you realize you can just install xubuntu-desktop and run that, right?06:43
valorieyou do not have to do another install06:43
valorieyou can, but do not have to06:43
yeuoano i did not know that06:43
valoriethat is one of the strengths of the ubuntu base06:43
valorieyou can run unity, gnome, kde, lxde, xfce just by installing them06:44
yeuoai had no clue06:44
yeuoabut kubuntu seems sluggish and i was wanting to try xubuntu06:44
valorieoh, and mate06:44
valorie!releases06:45
ubottuUbuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 9 months to 5 years. More info at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases & http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases06:45
valorieoh, that doesn't have the flavors, sorry06:45
yeuoahow do i just install xubuntu from here?06:45
valoriein the commandline: sudo apt install xubuntu-desktop06:46
yeuoathats awesome06:47
yeuoathank you06:47
valorieindeed!06:47
valorieall the flavor people are cool06:47
valorienot that unity people aren't06:47
yeuoaand to try the others..i would use sudo apt install gnome-desktop?06:47
valoriebut I know more of the flavor teams06:48
valoriemmmm06:48
valorie!gnome06:48
ubottuGNOME was the default desktop environment on Ubuntu up to 10.10. To install the GNOME Shell, type [ sudo apt-get install gnome-shell ] in a !terminal. For the GNOME-based !flavor of Ubuntu, see !ubuntu-gnome06:48
valorie!ubuntu-gnome06:48
ubottuUbuntu GNOME is a supported !flavor of Ubuntu that uses !GNOME as the default desktop environment instead of Unity. For more info or to download, see http://www.ubuntugnome.org/ or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGNOME/OneStopPage06:48
yeuoaim not sure how one remembers all these commands lol06:48
ChronotossUse them, over and over and over06:48
Chronotossand write them XD06:48
valorieoh, I just guess what ubottu knows06:48
valoriewhen I get it wrong, it says it doesn't know, in private06:49
valorielol06:49
Chronotossgotta love bots06:49
valoriepfff, I don't know if it's still gnome-desktop or gnome-shell or what in the command06:50
valoriebut at worst you just get an error message06:50
rwwubuntu-gnome-desktop for the Ubuntu GNOME stuff. gnome-shell for upstream06:51
valorieI like the gnome people, but not the desktop06:51
valoriethanks, rww06:51
rww(comparable to kubuntu-desktop vs. whatever y'all use instead of kde-standard)06:51
rwwplasma-desktop i think06:52
valorieyup06:52
ChronotossI never saw a need to install multiple desktop types. Is there a use?06:53
valorietesting, I guess?06:53
valorieI've only done it once, and it was for that reason06:54
ChronotossI've installed a new desktop, but that was getting rid of gnome for K06:55
valoriewell, I did that a couple of times too06:56
Chronotossright now I"m trying to figure out why my ~/.cache/dconf folder has a root owner.06:57
valoriechroot it06:57
valorieyou probably ran something as sudo when you shouldn't have06:57
valorieor used sudo instead of kdesudo06:58
ChronotossI did that... I also tried to nuke it in tty and reboot and it came back that way again.06:58
valoriewell, you can log out, then move or delete it06:58
valoriebut if you haven't logged out, it is *instantly* recreated06:58
ChronotossI was logged out and nuked it under another user.06:59
valoriehmmm06:59
valoriewell, try chown -R username folder/07:00
ChronotossDid that.07:00
valorieyou can do it on your whole ~/home07:00
valoriealthough it will take longer07:00
ChronotossMy home is small thank god.07:00
Chronotossit's not affecting anything right now, at least from what I can tell, but I've been told there should be no root owner in my home. So I've been looking it over. deleting it, looking things up and trying it.07:02
valorieright, that's part of the definition of $HOME07:02
valorievs / (root)07:02
ChronotossRight.07:02
yeuoavalorie, ok its done, now what07:06
valorieyeuoa: what's done?07:06
yeuoathe xubuntu desktop install07:06
valorielogout, and grub should let you choose07:07
yeuoaok ill try thanks07:07
valorieoops, I was going to say, you may need to update grub07:07
ChronotossI was about to say, at this point you should only get to it at log-in right?07:08
valorieyeah07:08
yejafvalorie, i didnt get a choice...it just booted into this07:12
yejafvalorie, has a pic of a mouse on the desktop lol07:12
valoriethen you have xubuntu07:12
yejafhmm ok and kubuntu is gone theni guess07:12
valorieyou might need to update grub if you want to switch back and forth07:13
valorienope, not gone07:13

mJImmerany one know how to start orca in sddm ?  I am writing a theme and all I can think is to use qprocess07:16
mJImmergsettings is not working07:16
mJImmerlike use qprocess -> then use gesttings would be super annoying for it to start out the bat07:17
ChronotossHumm interesting reading. I don't know if it will help but i'll have to read all the material first to be sure.07:20
mJImmerYeah it is like because there is no user that I can not use it.  But I can 100% access all the Gsettings with a custom class so not sure *Oo07:22
ChronotossOhh I'm sorry mJImmer, I was responding to valorie. I've never written a theme before so I cannot help too much.07:23
valoriemJImmer: probably best to ask in #kde-devel, or perhaps better in #kde-accessibility07:24
mJImmerthat is fine I will figure it out.07:24
mJImmercrazy thing is I have to keep on droping to shell to test lol brb07:25
valoriewell, I've used orca before to test, so it works in kubuntu07:26
ChronotossI guess themes are difficult to make? I've been pondering as well a way to control each applications volume, I know you should be able to. have yet to figure out how.07:26
valorieChronotoss: can look at other themes and see how they do it07:34
ChronotossI could, then I would have to take my time away from my other tinkerings and start a new tinkering. I have alot on my plate right now as I'm leaning Plasma and Kubuntu, as well as more about Linux.07:36

Smurphyejay: But it is possible, yes.12:18
ejaySmurphy: how?12:18
ejayNow I'm like - how badly I effed up my OS because I just installed a bunch of i386 libs including xrandr and x11 and such and never took a look if apt-get is removing anything I need.12:21

espereguI just upgraded to 15.10 from 14.04 and now when I try to log in kwin crashed continuesly so I don't even get a desktop. Someone knows how to fix that?16:21
BluesKajesperegu:  clean install?16:24
espereguBluesKaj: I am afraid to lose my stuff....16:24
esperegu(besides having to reconfigure everything)16:26
espereguBluesKaj: its not windows is it? ;-)16:26
BluesKajesperegu, skipping over a release even though it's EOL requires a clean install, unless you have  separate / (root) and /home partitions, then you can install to / and all your conf files and data will be saved from the previous install16:28
=== joel_ is now known as Guest92702
espereguBluesKaj: all on one partition. I did not skip the upgrade. just immediately after reboot upgraded again.16:50
espereguthe first upgrade was stuck initially by the way16:50
BluesKajesperegu, so where are you stuck ?16:52
espereguBluesKaj: now by the crash of kwin. I am now removing all kubuntu desktop related packages and will try to reinstall them16:53
espereguhope that will let me in again.16:53
BluesKajesperegu, can you get to a vt/tty to update, upgrade and install packages?16:56
espereguBluesKaj: I am logged in via ssh16:56
espereguBluesKaj: just removed a lot of packages. now installing kubuntu-desktop16:57
=== kubuntu is now known as Ivan97
BluesKajalso install plasma-desktop16:57
espereguBluesKaj: kubuntu-desktop depends on it....16:58
BluesKajesperegu, you may be stuck due to 14.10 being EOL with no active repositories, so my advice is to change the /etc/apt/sources.list debs from utopis to vivid, if you think that's the problem17:00
BluesKajutopia rather17:00
espereguI thought it had to do with plasma so I moved my .kde folder but that made no difference17:01
duilio_brentaboh... mi sò scassat' u' cazz!17:05
BluesKajesperegu, sudo sed -i 's/utopia/vivid/' /etc/apt/sources.list'17:05
BluesKajthat command will change your sources.list to 15.04 and update and upgrade should work17:06
BluesKajdrop the quote mark at the end17:07
BluesKajsudo sed -i 's/lucid/maverick/' /etc/apt/sources.list17:07
BluesKajoops esperegu don't copy and paste  the above17:08
BluesKajthat's an example I keep in my cli commands text file17:09
espereguBluesKaj: but it's already at 15.1017:13
BluesKajesperegu, your sources.list shows wily ?17:21
espereguBluesKaj: think so. lemme check. its now rebooting17:22

BluesKajok , esperegu, still having upgrade freeze17:25
espereguBluesKaj: no. but still crashing on kwin17:25
espereguBluesKaj: think it is an xorg.conf issue17:25
BluesKajdo you have an xorg.conf file?17:26
espereguyes17:26
espereguBluesKaj: without it it starts the desktop. but of course not with my monitors properly....17:26
espereguBluesKaj: food first. brb17:27
BluesKajbest to delete it and start over with nothing and let the default graphics driver do the work17:27
BluesKajthen find the right driver for your gpu and install it17:27
BigFredyi have a fresh install of ubuntu 14.04 LTS with Unity, anything to know before installing KDE ?17:44
BluesKajBigFredy, install kubuntu-desktop and then you can choose which desktop you want to use at login17:45
espereguBluesKaj: is it possible to disable a driver?17:47
BigFredyBluesKaj : Thanks, i'm on the way.17:47
BluesKajesperegu, which driver needs disabling?17:47
espereguBluesKaj: well. I see intel and nvidia in xorg17:47
BluesKajesperegu, do you have hybrid gpus / optimus system?17:48
espereguBluesKaj: desktop with 2 Nvidia cards (and build in video)17:49
espereguBluesKaj: I used the 2 nvidia cards with xinerama17:49
BluesKajesperegu,did you see my suggestion above about deleting your xorg.conf for now and using the default to keep things stable til we get your setup syraightened out?17:50
BluesKajstraightened out even17:51
espereguBluesKaj: yes. I am running without xorg.conf atm17:51

estan_hi. does Kubuntu provide source DVDs like Debian does? (http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/source/iso-dvd/).19:20
estan_i'm thinking for the convenience of hardware vendors shipping Kubuntu pre-installed, which need to provide the source for all shipped GPL software on durable media, or a written offer to provide it that is valid for 3 years.19:22
BluesKajBigFredy, make sure you update and upgrade now19:23
BigFredyupdate & upgrade done19:26
BluesKajestan_, images are only available for download. The dvd/cd disks are no longer available19:27
BluesKajBigFredy, ok , install kubuntu-restricted-extras19:28
estan_BluesKaj: bah. sorry i phrased it wrong, i meant DVD ISOs.19:29
estan_BluesKaj: and note that i meant source DVD ISOs, not the regular install media, but the sources (like at the debian URL above).19:29
BigFredyBluesKaj : Perfect ! keyboard works fine now19:31
BluesKajestan_, there no disk with isos available whether source or regular install media, whatever you mean by that19:33
BigFredyOther thing, in the taskbar the keyboard icon let me only choose English, no way to change ibus settings19:35
estan_BluesKaj: sorry, i'm unclear. i'm not asking about physical DVD for purchase, but ISO images, like you can download at http://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu/ . but those are the regular install media. i meant source ISOs, containing the source of all the packages.19:38
estan_at http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/source/iso-dvd/ , Debian offers 11 DVDs containing the source of all the packages in Debian. i was just thinking if Kubuntu has the equivalent somewhere.19:38
estan_i'm guessing that Debian offers those as a convenience for hardware vendors that wish to ship Debian pre-installed, and immediately satisfy the requirement of GPL to provide the source by including those DVDs, instead of having to make an offer (valid for 3 years) to provide it, which is the other option in the GPL.19:40
denza242estan_: like a mirror of the sources?19:40
estan_denza242: well yes, but put into ISO images for convenient burning.19:40
denza242hmm19:40
estan_the GPL requires it to be on physical media, if you take the option of providing the source straight away at the time you sell it.19:41
estan_so i guess that's why Debian has those ISOs.19:41
estan_(if you take the option of making a 3-year promise to provide the source, you're allowed to do so through a network)19:41
denza242estan_: https://www.osdisc.com/products/linux/ubuntu/ubuntu-1510-software-repository-64bit.html19:41
estan_denza242: that does not seem to be the source of the packages, but the packages themselves.19:43
estan_but i guess there's no equivalent to those Debian ISOs for Kubuntu.19:43
denza242estan_: it can be used as a repository19:43
denza242wait19:43
estan_of course.19:44
denza242estan_: like, the source code of the packages?19:44
estan_yes. like the Debian ISOs.19:44
denza242hmm19:44
estan_i'm asking about the source code. i'm mainly interested from a hardware vendor point of view.19:44
denza242estan_: also, there probably won't be a "Kubuntu" one, since Kubuntu pulls all packages from Ubuntu19:45
estan_i see. there are no Kubuntu specific packages what so ever?19:46
BigFredyI think there an issue with my Ibus preferences19:46
denza242estan_: there's kubuntu packages, but nothing that can't be downloaded from the main ubuntu repositories19:47
BigFredywhen reload, it set my keyboard to qwerty19:47
denza242i.e. kubuntu-desktop19:47
estan_because as a hardware vendor, if you ship GPL software preinstalled, you are obliged to offer the source, either on durable media (like DVDs, bluerays) as part of the sale, or as a valid-for-3-year offer to provide it either on durable media or for download.19:47
estan_denza242: alright.19:47
BluesKajestan_, if you check the kubuntu sources.list you see the src debs listed there, if that's what you mean19:47
denza242^19:47
denza242BluesKaj: how does system76 do it?19:48
BluesKajdenza242, I assume they follow the FOSS rules for vendor installation OSs, whatever they might be.19:49
denza242estan_: I would ask these guys how they handle the issue with source https://system76.com/19:49
estan_BluesKaj: yes. sure. i know that i can always gather the sources myself. i was just wondering if there was anything as convenient as what Debian has, pre-made DVD ISOs with all the sources.19:49
denza242estan_: tried looking and got nothing19:49
estan_denza242: yea. i would guess that most vendors don't take the first option of the GPL (to ship the code at the time of purchase), but take the offer route instead.19:50
estan_yea. i think it doesn't exist. thanks for looking.19:50
denza242estan_: sorry we couldn't find it for you19:50
denza242good luck19:50
estan_i'm just thinking. if i was a hardware vendor, i wouldn't count on repositories et.c. being available, since i'll be legally obliged to provide the source for 3 years, i would want to have my own private mirror.19:51
denza242estan_: if you have the bandwidth, you could host a mirror yourself19:51
estan_that's why it's more convenient in a way to provide the source up-front at the time you sell the machine. because then you've complied with GPL and don't have to think about it.19:51
estan_heh yea.19:51
estan_i think those 11 Debian DVDs ISOs would fit exactly on one dual-layer Bluray disc btw :)19:52
estan_so if you don't sell many machines (which is my situation), then shipping the source at the time i sell the machine would be more convenient than having to make sure it's available somewhere for 3 years.19:53
estan_(and it's three years after you provided the object code _or_ after you provided the last spare part for the machine).19:53
estan_GPL is complicated :)19:53
