| denza242 | does the FISH KIOslave support pubkey based authentication? | 02:56 |
| denza242 | also, can I use muon for package mangling on a remote machine? | 03:03 |
| MrNoob | no help in here ? | 03:05 |

| denza242 | MrNoob: what's the problem? | 03:09 |
| MrNoob | error: Invalid Magic Number ) | 03:09 |
| MrNoob | alloc magic number is broken at 0x52b9e1c0: 52ac2160 | 03:09 |
| MrNoob | can't boot kubuntu or ubuntu | 03:10 |
| denza242 | MrNoob: you seem to have this problem http://askubuntu.com/questions/183601/cant-boot-no-grub-alloc-magic-is-broken | 03:12 |
| MrNoob | it said - After you boot from the USB, the Boot Repair utility will pop up. Just click on the Recommended Repair button, and Boot-Repair will repair Grub for you. | 03:15 |
| MrNoob | that's not there | 03:15 |
| MrNoob | for ubuntu - alloc magic number is broken at 0x52b9e1c0: 52ac2160 | 03:16 |
| MrNoob | for kubuntu - for ubuntu - alloc magic number is broken at 0x6eb0a4e0: 6ea278c0 | 03:17 |
| MrNoob | for kubuntu - alloc magic number is broken at 0x6eb0a4e0: 6ea278c0 | 03:17 |
| MrNoob | bad usb ? | 03:18 |
| valorie | ah, hello again MrNoob | 03:38 |
| valorie | sorry I never researched the "magic number" error | 03:38 |
| valorie | MrNoob -- any possibility of a bad memory chip, as denza242's link indicates? | 03:39 |
| valorie | I'm still wondering if you ever verified the ISO, which involves working in the commandline | 03:39 |
| MrNoob | valorie: you mean bad usb drive ? | 03:40 |
| valorie | no, verifying the actual ISO that you downloaded | 03:41 |
| valorie | that's step one | 03:41 |
| valorie | !md5 | 03:41 |
| ubottu | To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 03:41 |
| MrNoob | i got kubuntu iso | 03:43 |
| valorie | right, so verify that it was a good download | 03:43 |
| valorie | in other words, complete and without error | 03:44 |
| MrNoob | question am i supposed to create that image from iso on same comp as i plan to use that usb drive for booting on ? | 03:45 |
| valorie | 1. download the ISO 2. verify the image 3. burn it to a DVD or USB drive 4. verify the burned image 5 boot the usb drive | 03:48 |
| MrNoob | trying to check but it is confusing i'm trying to do what they say it doesn't work anything beyond open cmd | 03:48 |
| valorie | open cmd ? | 03:50 |
| valorie | are you downloading and verifying in Windows, or in linux? | 03:50 |
| MrNoob | i don't have linux, that was supposed to be my first installation ) | 03:54 |
| valorie | ok | 03:55 |
| dahlia | is the kde menu broken when running as a virtualbox guest? | 03:55 |
| valorie | so you are following the Windows instructions | 03:56 |
| valorie | what happens when you say 'cmd'? | 03:56 |
| === irra is now known as MachoLaFlorida | ||
| MrNoob | i open it but their commands don't yield anything or i'm way off | 04:06 |
| MrNoob | valorie: wait | 04:10 |
| MrNoob | Valorie: halleluia | 04:10 |
| MrNoob | valorie: or however it's supposed to be pronounced | 04:11 |
| valorie | it worked? | 04:13 |
| valorie | sorry, had a brief visitor | 04:13 |
| MrNoob | installing now ))) | 04:14 |
| MrNoob | the solution turned out to be really simple yet some out of the box type stuff | 04:16 |
| valorie | such as? | 04:16 |
| valorie | I mean, does the documentation need updating? | 04:17 |
| MrNoob | use | 04:17 |
| MrNoob | a | 04:17 |
| MrNoob | different | 04:17 |
| MrNoob | usb | 04:17 |
| MrNoob | drive | 04:17 |
| MrNoob | genius right ? | 04:18 |
| valorie | actually, common mistake | 04:18 |
| valorie | and tbh, I think that the way linux handles devices and names is ridiculous | 04:19 |
| valorie | but I don't know enough to push for changes, either | 04:19 |
| MrNoob | maybe a common mistake but at no point was it suggested anywhere | 04:20 |
| MrNoob | i'm at disk setup part, some guidence ? | 04:21 |
| valorie | you can just say "install next to Windows" and it should work fine | 04:22 |
| MrNoob | no such option ) | 04:23 |
| MrNoob | 4 guided options 1 manual | 04:23 |
| valorie | and none of the guided options looks right to you? | 04:24 |
| valorie | sorry, I can't recall what they are | 04:24 |
| MrNoob | 1 - guided resize scsi1(0,0,0), partition#5 sda and use freed space | 04:28 |
| MrNoob | 2 - guided use entire disc | 04:28 |
| MrNoob | 3 - guided use entire disk and set up LVM | 04:29 |
| MrNoob | 4 - guided use entire disk and set up encrypted LVM | 04:29 |
| valorie | use number one then, unless you want to blow away windows | 04:31 |
| valorie | which is the simplest | 04:31 |
| MrNoob | but there's an adjustable bar, where should i move it to | 04:38 |
| valorie | you can see where your win partition is | 04:39 |
| valorie | give it just a bit of extra space if you plan on using it | 04:39 |
| MrNoob | more to sda1 or sda2 | 04:45 |
| MrNoob | or 50 50 | 04:46 |
| valorie | MrNoob: I guess that depends on where you want most of your files that will take up room | 04:47 |
| MrNoob | sda1 (fat32) sda2 (ntfs) | 04:47 |
| valorie | where-ever you are planning to store media and photo files, or other things that take a lot of room | 04:47 |
| MrNoob | inah that's gonna be on removeables | 04:48 |
| valorie | I assume that sda1 is windows | 04:48 |
| valorie | then it doesn't much matter -- applications and such beside libreoffice or so are not that large | 04:48 |
| MrNoob | 50 50 then | 04:49 |
| MrNoob | although the bar moves but the space values of the "after" don't update | 04:50 |
| MrNoob | i'll go with default | 04:53 |
| valorie | good idea | 04:56 |
| MrNoob | Valorie: Thank You | 05:19 |
| valorie | so it's installing now? | 05:19 |
| MrNoob | valorie: done already, now got to learn how to use it | 05:30 |
| valorie | great news! | 05:31 |
| valorie | for IRC, I use konversation | 05:32 |
| MrNoob | what ? | 05:34 |
| valorie | MrNoob: that is one of my favorite bits of KDE software: Konversation | 05:36 |
| MrNoob | problem, adjusted screen brightness, tested dark screen went black, cant see anything ))))) | 05:37 |
| valorie | using software keys, or what? | 05:38 |
| valorie | on my laptop, it is the f3 key | 05:38 |
| MrNoob | widget for power and brightness | 05:39 |
| valorie | fn + f3 | 05:39 |
| MrNoob | f6 thank you though | 05:39 |
| MrNoob | linux really has no limits )))))))))) | 05:40 |
| valorie | right, that will be different on different systems | 05:40 |
| valorie | very true! | 05:40 |

| MrNoob | plazma keeps crashing is this normal ? | 05:57 |
| valorie | MrNoob: you install 15.10, correct? | 06:00 |
| MrNoob | yes | 06:00 |
| valorie | installed | 06:00 |
| valorie | no, not normal | 06:00 |
| valorie | I would upgrade if possible | 06:01 |
| valorie | you can add updates and backports safely | 06:01 |
| MrNoob | upgrade to what ? | 06:01 |
| valorie | do you want to do it through the update widget, or using the commandline? | 06:01 |
| valorie | 15.10 is a 4 or so months old | 06:02 |
| valorie | there have been updates in KDE software since then | 06:02 |
| MrNoob | whichever way is best | 06:03 |
| valorie | for instance: https://kubuntu.org/news/plasma-5-4-3-and-applications-15-08-3-for-kubuntu-15-10/ | 06:04 |
| valorie | and by adding backports, you actually get plasma 5.5.3 | 06:04 |
| valorie | personally I prefer the commandline because it's faster | 06:04 |
| MrNoob | i would have to learn | 06:05 |
| valorie | if you want that, open a konsole and copy/paste into it: sudo apt-add-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/ppa && sudo apt-add-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports | 06:09 |
| valorie | you paste in a konsole with control+shift+C | 06:10 |
| MrNoob | i'm talking to you on desktop | 06:10 |
| === struk|desk2 is now known as struk|desk|away | ||
| valorie | do you use dropbox or so? | 06:10 |
| valorie | if so, you can save that in text in dropbox, and open it in the other computer | 06:11 |
| valorie | of course, you have to set up dropbox first | 06:11 |
| MrNoob | or i could just type it in | 06:11 |
| valorie | pay attention to spacing | 06:12 |
| valorie | the commandline is not forgiving | 06:12 |
| MrNoob | i would have to learn to understand | 06:12 |
| valorie | well, sudo gives you root permission temporarily | 06:13 |
| valorie | apt-add-repository not just adds the repo, but also downloads the security key | 06:13 |
| valorie | ppas are the repositories that Kubuntu uses for various purposes such as testing, staging, updating and etc. | 06:14 |
| valorie | && links the commands together just to speed things up | 06:15 |
| === irra is now known as SolidoLaFlorida | ||
| MrNoob | no double spaces | 06:19 |
| MrNoob | ? | 06:20 |
| valorie | no double spaces | 06:20 |
| MrNoob | running | 06:21 |
| MrNoob | the command line s gone noth happening | 06:21 |
| valorie | you put in your user password? | 06:22 |
| valorie | and hit return? | 06:22 |
| MrNoob | didn't ask | 06:22 |
| valorie | then you didn't type what I put exactly | 06:22 |
| MrNoob | ;etter by letter | 06:23 |
| MrNoob | starting with the s of the sudo | 06:23 |
| valorie | starting with sudo? | 06:23 |
| valorie | ok | 06:23 |
| valorie | check again, it must be exactly: | 06:23 |
| valorie | sudo apt-add-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/ppa && sudo apt-add-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports | 06:24 |
| MrNoob | by the way how do i activate backlit keyboard | 06:25 |
| MrNoob | and or onscreen keyboard | 06:25 |
| valorie | hmmm, don't know about backlit keyboard | 06:26 |
| valorie | I think there is a something like xhotkeys or so | 06:26 |
| valorie | !info xhotkeys | 06:27 |
| ubottu | Package xhotkeys does not exist in wily | 06:27 |
| valorie | eh, I'll have to google it | 06:27 |
| valorie | hmmm, it's really old | 06:28 |
| valorie | !shortcuts | 06:28 |
| ubottu | Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System Settings -> Keyboard & Mouse. If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try the 'keytouch' package, explained at https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KDEMultimediaKeys - See !Keyboard for changing layouts. | 06:28 |
| valorie | ah, probably more recent | 06:29 |
| MrNoob | again noth happen in command | 06:36 |
| valorie | can you copy/paste the line where you typed the command and following? into a pastebin such as paste.ubuntu.com | 06:38 |
| valorie | then give me the link here | 06:38 |
| valorie | select then control+shift+C | 06:39 |
| valorie | control v into the pastebin | 06:39 |
| denza242 | valorie: is it possible to perform package management of a remote system with muon | 07:07 |
| valorie | not that I know of | 07:09 |
| === struk|desk|away is now known as struk|desk2 | ||
| denza242 | valorie: also, how do I navigate to a fish:// location in konqueror if authentication is done via pubkey? | 07:13 |
| valorie | mmm | 07:13 |
| denza242 | for instance, I tried going to fish://username@domain.tld:1234, and it merely returned an error | 07:13 |
| valorie | I've read about this somewhere | 07:13 |
| valorie | but where | 07:13 |
| valorie | !pubkey | 07:13 |
| valorie | https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Network/SecuringSSH part way down | 07:16 |
| denza242 | valorie: ah, I know how to do pubkey auth, but doing it through a KIOslave is where i have a problem | 07:18 |
| denza242 | valorie: https://a.uguu.se/phjqgs_tempsnap1.png | 07:18 |
| valorie | did you do this step? | 07:19 |
| valorie | Once you've checked you can successfully login to the server using your public/private key pair, you can disable password authentication completely by adding the following setting to your /etc/ssh/sshd_config file: | 07:19 |
| valorie | # Disable password authentication forcing use of keys | 07:19 |
| valorie | PasswordAuthentication no | 07:19 |
| denza242 | hmm, let me check | 07:20 |
| denza242 | valorie: yep, that's done | 07:21 |
| valorie | well, fiddlesticks | 07:21 |
| valorie | have you asked in ##linux ? | 07:21 |
| valorie | http://yuenhoe.com/blog/2009/12/ssh-browsing-in-dolphin-using-an-ssh-key-file/ might help too | 07:22 |
| valorie | it mentions kio | 07:22 |
| denza242 | valorie: yay, it works :D | 07:28 |

| je | hello | 08:59 |
| je | i have a question | 08:59 |
| valorie | then why didn't you ask it? | 09:16 |
| lordievader | Good morning. | 09:50 |
| cosec_ | how do i install another desktop environment in kubuntu ? | 11:12 |
| cosec_ | last time i installed xubuntu-desktop in ubuntu, the os broke | 11:13 |
| cosec_ | :( | 11:13 |
| cosec_ | any ideas how to do it without messing up ? | 11:14 |
| dan | Maxiride: did you ever find a problem to your issue with VLC not resizing videos? i'm having the same problem | 11:52 |
| BluesKaj | Hey folks | 11:53 |
| Maxiride | dan: do you mean if I found how to solve it? Nope.. I even asked the VLC support without success. | 11:53 |
| dan | yeah, too early in the morning to sound coherent. =) thanks for answering though | 11:54 |
| Maxiride | Anyway I found and old post on the ubuntu forums were they were aiming their fingers to compiz, so I guess it might be related to KWin? | 11:54 |
| dan | ok | 11:54 |
| Maxiride | another user instead solved it like so: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1493805 | 11:55 |
| dan | it doesn't work well, but if i switch the VLC skin from the default qt interface to something else (starting svlc on the command line) i can get full screen to work | 11:57 |
| Maxiride | interesting | 11:57 |
| Maxiride | By the way, this morning the whole pc froze (second time now). What I can experience is that plasmashell crash with a segmentation fault error, I would really like to submit a bug report but the Debug Helper says that few debug symbols packages are missing. I click install and then it says no packages can be found for the application. HDD I\O spins like crazy (the led on the laptopt stays always on), keyboard won't respond and I can only do a force | 12:04 |
| Maxiride | shutdown by holding down the power supply button. | 12:04 |
| Maxiride | I'm kinda trapped, when it happens I can't submit the report, if I wait a minute more everyhting freeze. | 12:05 |
| BluesKaj | Maxiride, try the "F" key for fullscreen on vlc while a video plays | 12:07 |
| Maxiride | BluesKaj: tried, no change.. | 12:20 |
| BluesKaj | Maxiride, which gpu ? | 12:20 |
| Maxiride | i have an Nvidia gt540m | 12:21 |
| dan | same here with an nvidia gtx560 | 12:24 |
| BluesKaj | Maxiride, isn't that used on "optimus" laptops? | 12:25 |
| BluesKaj | Maxiride, then you have other issues like making sure nvidia-prime is installed, and check this http://askubuntu.com/questions/84354/how-to-enable-3d-acceleration-with-an-nvidia-geforce-gt-540m | 12:31 |
| BluesKaj | dan, is yous a laptop too? | 12:37 |
| BluesKaj | yours | 12:37 |
| dan | no, desktop with discrete graphics card | 12:37 |
| dan | as mentioned above. vlc goes full screen correctly if not using the qt skin | 12:38 |
| BluesKaj | dan, plasma isn't quite finished it's development yet combined with Qt. Some patience is required and if you want full screen what does a diiferent interface look matter anyway? | 12:41 |
| dan | BluesKaj: i'm used to dealing with broken things. it's no big deal. | 12:42 |
| dan | i had the same problem this morning Maxiride had yesterday. was just curious if he found a solution | 12:43 |
| BluesKaj | it's not really broken , just not ready | 12:43 |
| BluesKaj | Mamarok, ride has differnt issues | 12:43 |
| BluesKaj | oops he's gone, sorry Mamarok | 12:44 |
| BluesKaj | Maxride has differnt issues than you do dan | 12:45 |
| massimo | ciao | 12:47 |
| dan | BluesKaj: he might have multiple issues i'm not sure. but it appears with both have the exact same problem with VLC | 12:47 |
| BluesKaj | well the vlc problem appears to be fixable in your case | 12:48 |
| BluesKaj | which kubuntu OS are you using ? | 12:49 |
| dan | BluesKaj: not to be difficult. but i'm not sure Maxiride actually tried using a different skin. i didn't see him mention it. i could of missed it in the above conversation | 12:49 |
| dan | 15.10 with the backports ppa | 12:50 |
| dan | i do know we are both using backports | 12:50 |
| BluesKaj | do you have plasma 5.5.3? | 12:50 |
| dan | yes | 12:50 |
| BluesKaj | plasmashell -v in the terminal | 12:51 |
| dan | yes, 5.5.3 | 12:52 |
| BluesKaj | ok | 12:52 |
| BluesKaj | guess I'm not as visually concerned about VLC skins as other users. To me it's simple and easy to manoever and it's default appearance doesn't bother me. | 12:55 |
| dan | i don't think the skins were what anybody was worried about. =) just that vlc using all the defaults stopped being able to resize video when you resized vlc, and full screen was broken as well | 12:57 |
| dan | luckily though we found it only happens for the default qt based skin | 12:57 |
| BluesKaj | dan, odd because I'm using thr default skin | 12:58 |
| BluesKaj | haven't encountered that problem | 12:58 |
| dan | yeah, perhaps thats the confusion. its when using a non default skin that i can get it to work | 12:59 |
| BluesKaj | my nvidia card uses the 340 driver | 13:00 |
| dan | i'm using a newer 352 driver | 13:01 |
| dan | i suppose that could be it | 13:01 |
| BluesKaj | I thoyght you meant there was some special Qt skin other than the default that was causing your issue | 13:01 |
| dan | ah, i see | 13:02 |
| dan | it was just plain old vlc | 13:02 |
| dan | when i started vlc as "svlc" the problem went away | 13:02 |
| dan | which uses a rather odd looking skin =) | 13:02 |
| Maxiride | BluesKaj: sorry went afk, i have prime installed but with dedicated gpu turned off. I'll try to enable it for vlc | 13:02 |
| BluesKaj | makes me think od a driver issue | 13:02 |
| BluesKaj | of | 13:02 |
| BluesKaj | Maxiride, do you have switcheroo? | 13:03 |
| Maxiride | BluesKaj: nope | 13:03 |
| === struk|desk|away is now known as struk|desk2 | ||
| Maxiride | i've just installed the reccomende driver from the system settings and then apt-getted the prime package | 13:03 |
| BluesKaj | right | 13:04 |
| BluesKaj | switcheroo is hit and miss anyway | 13:05 |
| Maxiride | however how can I set into the nvidia x server settings to turn on the dedicated gpu for a specific app? | 13:08 |
| Maxiride | if I want to swith manually I always need to logou\login | 13:09 |
| Maxiride | I hope it's not like this also for apps profile | 13:09 |
| BluesKaj | dan, you and Maxiride have higher end cards than my gt218 which uses a very mature driver whereas the 352 driver could be less developed and not as bug free. | 13:09 |
| dan | BluesKaj: it's possible | 13:09 |
| dan | i imagine vlc is using all that vdpau or whatever it's called for decoding videos | 13:10 |
| Maxiride | but I didn't had this issue before upgrading to the backports landing ppa.. | 13:10 |
| Maxiride | D: | 13:10 |
| BluesKaj | Maxiride, hmm, have you considered using ppa-purge ? | 13:13 |
| BluesKaj | !ppa-purge | 13:13 |
| ubottu | To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html | 13:13 |
| Maxiride | Nope since it's a bug I can live with for a while I will wait for backports-landing to be completed | 13:14 |
| Maxiride | instead of doing a massive rollback | 13:14 |
| BluesKaj | Maxiride, are you on 15.10 or 16.04 ? | 13:15 |
| Maxiride | 15.10 | 13:19 |
| excognac | how stable 16.04 is? I'll need to reinstall and wanna stick to LTS only. | 13:26 |
| BluesKaj | excognac, 16.04 is a development OS, not meant for production/work environments , but if you're an acdventurous home user and have a stable fallback OS that you use in case 16.04 breaks and becomes unusable at some point then ny all means try it, besides testers feedback is welcome at #kubuntu-devel :-) | 13:31 |
| BluesKaj | 'scuse the typos | 13:32 |
| BluesKaj | I use 14.04 as my fallback OS ...still prefer kde4/plasma4 to the new plasma 5 | 13:34 |
| excognac | BluesKaj: thanks, I know it's under dev. just was curious. I've managed to buy laptop very dumbly, it hates all distroses I ever tried to fit on, so I thought at least it won't be all senseless if I contribute to the community:) | 13:35 |
| excognac | *distros. anyway gtg now, talk t you guys later, hugs | 13:36 |

| BluesKaj | fuze, do you have any ppas in your /etc/apt/sources.list.d, if so remove them with, alt +F2, kdesudo dolphin /etc/apt/sources.list.d, and run sudo apt update , then sudo apt upgrade. If that works then run sudo do-release-upgrade | 18:20 |

| BluesKaj | FlameReaper-PC,, there is no kde5 and 14.04 can't upgrade to plsama 5 | 18:45 |
| BluesKaj | plasma 5 | 18:45 |
| FlameReaper-PC | not even a ppa? | 18:45 |
| fuze | BluesKaj: so what is it? | 18:45 |
| BluesKaj | fuze, ewmove those ppas | 18:45 |
| BluesKaj | remove | 18:45 |
| fuze | BluesKaj: arent those needed for programs? | 18:46 |
| BluesKaj | FlameReaper-PC, not anymore...too much breakage | 18:46 |
| FlameReaper-PC | wow | 18:46 |
| FlameReaper-PC | i guess | 18:46 |
| FlameReaper-PC | there'll be much to be wary of when I upgrade to 16.04 then | 18:47 |
| BluesKaj | fuze, those ppa are meant for 15.04 packages , not 15.10 packages, you'll have to add the 15.10 ppas after you upgrade to 15.10 | 18:48 |
| anon_ | Тут че вообще русских нет?Й | 18:48 |
| BluesKaj | FlameReaper-PC, I'm testing 16.04 and it's working reasonably well , some crashes now and then but mostly it's ok | 18:49 |

| fuze | BluesKaj: ^ | 18:56 |
| BluesKaj | fuze, looks like the damage is already done , you'll need to reboot into the recovery kernel and fix broken packages there | 18:58 |
| fuze | BluesKaj: what are the broken packages? | 18:58 |
| BluesKaj | let the revovery kernel do that for you | 18:59 |
| BluesKaj | recovery | 18:59 |
| fuze | BluesKaj will that be in grub under "advanced options"? | 19:00 |
| BluesKaj | yes | 19:00 |
| BluesKaj | fuze, you also may need to enable networking first inthe revovery dialog options | 19:01 |
| fuze | BluesKaj: where is that? | 19:01 |
| BluesKaj | you'll see it in the dialog when it appears | 19:02 |
| fuze | BluesKaj: I tried repair broken packages then it asked to install packages and when I did it returned the same error | 19:31 |
| soee | what error ? | 19:32 |
| BluesKaj | fuze, don't suppose you have separate/ and /home partitions ? | 19:32 |
| BluesKaj | fuze, and perhaps you could stick with posting in one cha at a time | 19:33 |
| BluesKaj | chat | 19:33 |
| BluesKaj | you've posted in 4 differnt chats on last count | 19:34 |
| fuze | I do have separate partitions BluesKaj | 19:35 |
| BluesKaj | for /(root) and /home ? if so just install a new 15.10 image to / and set the mountpoint for /home, without reformatting it of course, in ubiquity installer with manual partitionng | 19:40 |
| fuze | BluesKaj: wont that format all my settings and packages? | 19:41 |
| MrNoob | valorie: are you here ? | 19:43 |
| BluesKaj | if you just install to / and leave /home as is with just set mountpoint, then all the configs will be saved to your 15.10 installation, except for all those ppas of course | 19:43 |
| BluesKaj | fuze,^ | 19:43 |
| fuze | BluesKaj: what about kde themes and grub settings? | 19:44 |
| === foormea_ is now known as deeplodokus | ||
| BluesKaj | grub will reinstall, your themes should be saved unless you already dmaged them by upgrading the release before making sure all your packages were up to date | 19:45 |
| BluesKaj | at this point there are no guiarantees, fuze | 19:46 |

| rkan001 | how the hell do you get a list of channels? | 20:26 |
| rkan001 | hello all by the way | 20:26 |
| BluesKaj | rkan001, in the freenode server box /list "name you are looking for" | 20:29 |
| rkan001 | @BluesKaj Thanks, I've tried that, perhaps there is no response if the result is null ? | 20:29 |
| rkan001 | Ohh I see it opens up a new window | 20:31 |
| rkan001 | got it now thanks | 20:31 |
| rkan001 | What client works best for Gtalk on KDE? | 20:52 |
| rkan001 | Kopete isnt running smooth for me | 20:52 |
| === LjL^ is now known as LjL | ||
| soee | rkan001: what is Gtalk ? | 21:25 |
| soee | !package gtalk | 21:25 |
| soee | !gtalk | 21:25 |
| ubottu | Google Talk (GTalk) is an instant messaging program from Google. Currently, Google does not have an official standalone GTalk client for Linux, but supports connections from third-party clients such as !Pidgin and !Kopete | See http://www.google.com/talk/otherclients.html for more information | 21:25 |
| soee | well i think telepathy should handle it | 21:26 |
| rkan001 | Yeah - Im trying telepathy | 21:27 |
| soee | but also in latest Plasma version it is a bit broken - can't connect with Google service etc. | 21:28 |
| rkan001 | doesnt look like a chat client in the style of pidgin, right? Is it integrated with the desktop or what? | 21:28 |
| soee | yes it is part of KDE Applications | 21:28 |
| rkan001 | aint working either (the gtalk account) | 21:29 |
| rkan001 | I guess I should just make my contacts switch to some other service | 21:29 |
| N3X15 | To be fair, Plasma on Kubuntu has been broken for a while | 21:51 |
| soee | N3X15: what exactly ? | 22:11 |
| N3X15 | UI coloring, frequent crashes that have been reported and have active issue reports months old | 22:11 |
| N3X15 | I still prefer it over Unity or GNOME, but I'm about ready to set up a development VM and fix it myself. | 22:13 |

| valorie | and for me, plasma crashed quite a bit with the -landing ppa, but since everything hit backports, not so much | 23:33 |
| valorie | after all, that's what testing is for..... | 23:33 |
