| Godolphinhill | Just clean installed Kubuntu 15.10 and need to restore my backed up files which are on a usb stick called Kingston by my computer. How do I do this please? | 12:00 |
| hateball | Godolphinhill: No one in here knows how or what you backuped | 12:01 |
| hateball | Godolphinhill: So we'll need a bit more detail | 12:01 |
| Godolphinhill | I backed up my documents. They're in .gz files on the usb stick | 12:07 |
| hateball | Godolphinhill: So unpack them where you see fit | 12:12 |
| BluesKaj | Hiyas all | 12:53 |
| em | every time my computer is left unused for too long it bugs out - logs me out or does other things and then when I log back in I see that random things have been opened and changed. Like this time there were a ton of apps I never opened and websites from my browser history were added to the bookmarks. | 12:59 |
| em | actually looks like its not from history. It is stuff I had bookmarked, it just wasn't on the toolbar before. | 13:00 |
| BluesKaj | em, what length of time are you talking about here? | 13:05 |
| em | BluesKaj: Like over night. | 13:07 |
| BluesKaj | perhaps you have updates and upgrades set to auto install unattended updates in the update manager | 13:10 |
| em | it happened again | 13:40 |
| em | this isnt like normal stuff showing up | 13:40 |
| em | its completely random stuff | 13:40 |
| em | like all the tabs in google tht were open slpit into diffferent window | 13:40 |
| em | akregator oepnded | 13:41 |
| em | restore session opened | 13:41 |
| em | all random things i never touched | 13:41 |
| em | opened | 13:41 |
| em | every time i return to the computer it is like some monkey has been opening random crap | 13:41 |
| em | often so much that i just have to turn it off and start over | 13:41 |
| em | I think maybe Kubuntu 15.10 is just not ready to be released. | 13:42 |
| Smurphy | em: it is. You sure you didn't get yourself a trojan horse, or one of your fellas is playing on you ? | 13:50 |
| em | im not sure, maybe unetbootin made it buggy? | 13:52 |
| Smurphy | can't say. Booting normally | 13:53 |
| BluesKaj | em, are you sure there isn't some one accessing the computer while you're away or asleep or..... is this possible? | 13:57 |
| BluesKaj | unetbootin only worked for me about 50% of my install tries, but I never experienced ant strange behavior on the successful installs | 13:59 |
| BluesKaj | so I switched to using dd to copy the iso to usb | 14:00 |
| OerHeks | make sure you sync after that. | 14:04 |
| hateball | em: does this happen if you lock the screen before closing the lid as well? | 14:16 |

| karamba | Hi | 16:06 |
| karamba | Could anybody please help me with graphics settings under kubuntu 15.10? | 16:06 |
| karamba | I just put the old hard disk of my old computer into my brand new computer (Asus z170-A motherboard, Samsung Syncmaster monitor). | 16:07 |
| karamba | Even though the Samsung shows HD when detecting the signal, everything is off screen after loggin in. | 16:08 |
| karamba | Before I had a 19" now I have a 27". | 16:08 |
| === struk|desk2 is now known as struk|desk|away | ||
| BluesKaj | karamba, swapping in a HDD from a different pc that has differnt hardware than the target pc is always going cause problems due to drivers and graphics, audio and file configurations etc. | 16:25 |
| BluesKaj | never a good idea | 16:26 |
| karamba | BluesKaj: So I have to reinstall the system? :( ? | 16:26 |
| BluesKaj | yes, that's the best approach | 16:26 |
| OerHeks | karamba, same graphic card? if not, login ctrl alt F1: sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall # and reboot after that, might work for you | 16:28 |
| karamba | Not same card, completely new PC. Built it today. Thx I will try | 16:29 |
| BluesKaj | OerHeks, cool , never saw that command or attempt to rescue, before | 16:30 |
| OerHeks | sudo ubuntu-drivers list# will show available drivers | 16:31 |
| BluesKaj | if he can get to the VT | 16:31 |
| OerHeks | autoinstall installs the whole bunch, if available, vga, wifi, microcode | 16:31 |
| karamba | I ran the command but the output was: 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 3 not upgraded | 16:31 |
| OerHeks | yeah, i hope he can | 16:31 |
| OerHeks | sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade # might fix that | 16:32 |
| karamba | This is only installing a new kernel now | 16:34 |
| BluesKaj | sudo ubuntu-drivers list# errors out here | 16:34 |
| BluesKaj | but sudo ubuntu-drivers list works | 16:35 |
| OerHeks | that # was meant for the comment, sorry | 16:35 |
| BluesKaj | yeah i wondered about the # | 16:36 |
| karamba | I can not read a few chars on termnial 1 becaue it is off screen. but this command produces something like -microdoce | 16:40 |
| karamba | -microcode | 16:40 |
| BluesKaj | karamba, microcode is an optional app for your cpu | 16:42 |
| BluesKaj | !microcode | 16:42 |
| BluesKaj | !info microcode | 16:43 |
| ubottu | Package microcode does not exist in wily | 16:43 |
| karamba | BluesKaj: What do you mean? | 16:44 |
| karamba | Or what do I do? | 16:44 |
| BluesKaj | karamba, it's an optional package for your cpu to acquire patches | 16:45 |
| karamba | BluesKaj: So should I install it? | 16:46 |
| BluesKaj | just leave it for now, unless it's ready to install' | 16:46 |
| karamba | What do you mean by "unless it is ready to install"? So I can not do anything then I guess. | 16:47 |
| BluesKaj | install if youwish, don't think it will damage anything | 16:47 |
| BluesKaj | I have it installed on my pc without any ill effects | 16:48 |
| karamba | sudo apt-get install microcode --> package microcode not found | 16:48 |
| BluesKaj | depends on your cpu, AMD64-microcode, or intel-microcode | 16:50 |
| karamba | intel | 16:50 |
| BluesKaj | then install intel-microcode | 16:51 |
| karamba | -micocode is already the latest version | 16:51 |
| BluesKaj | ok | 16:51 |
| karamba | I just find it amazing that there is no command to the Ubuntu to reconfigure graphics, i.e. do what you normally do when installing a new system. | 16:52 |
| BluesKaj | have you updated and upgraded with apt? if so run sudo apt dist-upgrade as well | 16:52 |
| karamba | Yeah, I did that. | 16:53 |
| OerHeks | karamba, so what gpu is in your new pc? intel only? | 16:53 |
| BluesKaj | karamba, depends on the gpu , the installer looks at the hardware and installs the default driver | 16:53 |
| OerHeks | intel is supported with the kernel fine. | 16:54 |
| BluesKaj | yeah try st\artx | 16:54 |
| BluesKaj | startx rather | 16:54 |
| karamba | OerHeks: this is it: https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/Z170-A/specifications/ | 16:56 |
| OerHeks | It might be worth a fresh install, after backing up your data | 17:00 |

| bartosz_ | hello | 17:05 |
| bartosz_ | i've installed qmmp for mp3 but now when I download smth on firefox, and I want to open the folder where is downloaded program in FF, the folder does'nt open. Opens QMMP :/ | 17:06 |
| bartosz_ | helo | 17:06 |
| bartosz_ | program = file | 17:06 |
| BluesKaj | bartosz_, default DL file on kubuntu is /home/user/Downloads in FF | 17:07 |
| bartosz_ | i know but I hitting the download arrow in FF | 17:08 |
| bartosz_ | and near downloaded file is the icon of small folder | 17:08 |
| bartosz_ | when I hit it Qmmp opens | 17:08 |
| BluesKaj | just try opening the downloads file | 17:08 |
| bartosz_ | thats not a satisfying sollution | 17:08 |
| bartosz_ | i want to open the "overriding" folder | 17:09 |
| BluesKaj | really? ..seems simple enough to me | 17:09 |
| BluesKaj | there is no overriding folder | 17:09 |
| bartosz_ | im translating | 17:09 |
| bartosz_ | Ok | 17:09 |
| bartosz_ | you have and arrow in FF with downloaded files | 17:10 |
| bartosz_ | hit the arrow | 17:10 |
| bartosz_ | near downloaded file, on the right side is the gray folder | 17:10 |
| bartosz_ | when i hit that qmmp opens not dolphin | 17:10 |
| BluesKaj | this is trivial , just open the the home/user/Downloads file and you'll see your mp3 there | 17:11 |
| bartosz_ | the file is not a mp3 | 17:12 |
| bartosz_ | its a rar | 17:12 |
| bartosz_ | but Dolphin should open! | 17:12 |
| bartosz_ | this icon doesn't open the file but the directory where the file is! | 17:12 |
| BluesKaj | perhaps because it's a rar file | 17:13 |
| bartosz_ | ok ill give you a screenshot, you don't get it | 17:14 |
| BluesKaj | anyway i don't open files in my current dir whith a browser | 17:14 |
| bartosz_ | ok but i do and i would like to fix it | 17:14 |
| BluesKaj | bartosz_, maybe tar files expect to be extracted not opened with a browser, has that ocurred to you? | 17:17 |
| bartosz_ | http://zapodaj.net/5797746eeadfc.png.html | 17:19 |
| bartosz_ | check this image | 17:19 |
| * BluesKaj shrugs like i said above it's a tar file | 17:20 | |
| bartosz_ | can you see the other files | 17:21 |
| bartosz_ | is pdf a tar file? | 17:21 |
| BluesKaj | expects to be opened in the conr=texr menu with ark or extracted , not in a browser | 17:21 |
| BluesKaj | context menu | 17:22 |
| bartosz_ | is a pdf a tar file? | 17:22 |
| BluesKaj | it can be iuf it's compressed | 17:22 |
| bartosz_ | ok | 17:22 |
| bartosz_ | but before installing qmmp it worked well and always dolphin was opened | 17:22 |
| bartosz_ | so no, it's not beacuse tar files | 17:23 |
| BluesKaj | open it in dolphin , not FF and it will open with okular if it isn't tarred | 17:23 |
| bartosz_ | BluesKaj: I want to (beacause i have gotten used to it for years) to open a dolphin by hitting the folder icon | 17:24 |
| bartosz_ | like it was before installing qmmp | 17:25 |

| Guest53411 | how is it that ver 37 is higher than 43? | 19:24 |
| Guest53411 | The software in question is Firefox | 19:27 |
| OerHeks | Guest53411, strange bug, if it is a bug, can you pastebin the output of your update? | 19:29 |
| OerHeks | sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | nc termbin.com 9999 | 19:32 |
| Guest53411 | The following packages will be upgraded: firefox thunderbird xul-ext-calendar-timezones xul-ext-gdata-provider xul-ext-lightning 5 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

| OerHeks | so where do you read firefox 37 ? | 19:34 |
| Guest53411 | it's not showing the versions but, in synaptic | 19:35 |
| OerHeks | Guest53411, can you show us the output of: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | nc termbin.com 9999 | 19:36 |

| OerHeks | good, i leave you to it. | 19:40 |
| OerHeks | Its simple, that number 1000~37.0.1+build1-0ubuntu1~20150407.1550 points to a PPA only. | 19:42 |
| Guest53411 | I'm looking at the properties of firefox and that version is being pulled from (Trusty) | 19:43 |

| Guest53411 | my guess is since the maintainer Ubuntu Mozilla Team <ubuntu-mozillateam@lists.ubuntu.com> prefixed "1000" in front of the version number, it's picked as the latest version. which should not happen. | 20:12 |

| acher88 | the latest in the main archive for trust is firefox 43.0.4+build3-0ubuntu0.14.04.1 | 20:40 |
| acher88 | unless there is some other ppa weirdness, you should get to that on next 'apt-get upgrade' | 20:41 |
| OerHeks | indeed acher88, i think he used that ppa since FF 34, so it knows this version only to roll back | 20:42 |

| acher88 | should not supersede the trusty main archive version though I think | 20:49 |

| OerHeks | netrunner ppa makes appa for single versions, for wily 15.10 it is https://launchpad.net/~netrunner-os/+archive/ubuntu/netrunner-17-packages | 21:13 |
| devgeek | hi | 21:14 |
| acher88 | you'd need to install the standard kde-workspace then after the purge, as looks like it won't revert to that on it's own | 21:14 |
| devgeek | how i can install tar.gz files | 21:17 |
| acher88 | what exactly from where? | 21:17 |
| === elien is now known as sk_ryan007 | ||
| bprompt | devgeek: a .tar.gz is just a compressed file, not an installation package | 21:20 |
| devgeek | tnx :) | 21:23 |
| devgeek | sorry friends my english is realy bad ^ـــ^ | 21:25 |

| keithzg | Anyone know how to get the KDiff3 context menu options back in Plasma 5? | 21:38 |
| keithzg | (ie. integration with Dolphin/Konqueror/etc) | 21:38 |
| === elien is now known as sk_ryan007 | ||
| keithzg | Guest53411: Sounds about right, netrunner has a bunch of modifications/updates/etc to those packages and you'll be ostensibly returning to the base version of Kubuntu if you remove their PPA. | 21:39 |
| Guest53411 | I'll see what happens now.. ppa removed and firefox now back to ver 43.. but needs to restart FF.. might as well restart system. brb | 21:43 |
| acher88 | Guest53411: may have to 'dpkg -P --force-all netrunner-artwork' to fully get rid of the netrunner artwork package | 21:44 |
| acher88 | at least FF is correct version | 21:45 |
| acher88 | might do 'sudo apt-get install kde-workspace' before you restart | 21:45 |
| Guest53411 | okay thanks.. lol, all tis just to keep FF at current stable version.. | 21:45 |
| acher88 | the problem with ppas | 21:46 |
| Guest53411 | oh yeah, almost forgot kde-workspace.. thanks.. or I'd have another mess | 21:46 |
| acher88 | many are fine, but some do some odd things on overiding default packages and versions, and when they stop getting updated can be a real pain | 21:47 |

| N3X15 | Any fix available for scrolling via scrollwheel causing random movement in both directions? Using Logitech MX518 via VirtualBox 5.0.14 on Windows host. | 22:02 |
| Guest53411 | Thank you! Firefox is updated and system is running fine without the netrunner ppa. | 22:09 |
| keithzg | N3X15: You mean that Kubuntu is the guest and Windows is the host? (I use the *exact* same setup myself but reversed; venerable old MX518 as my mouse, Kubuntu as my host, Windows machines as my guests) | 22:34 |
| N3X15 | Yes | 22:34 |
| keithzg | Hmm. Can't say I have any experience directly with that then; you might want to just ask over in #vbox | 22:34 |
| N3X15 | Well, Vbox claims the problem is with Qt | 22:35 |
| N3X15 | And qt said they fixed the problem in 5.5 | 22:35 |
| N3X15 | https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-40829 Here's the bug report for that. | 22:37 |
| keithzg | N3X15: And you're running which version of Kubuntu? I actually was under the impression that Kubuntu 15.10 was still on Qt 5.4 | 22:37 |
| N3X15 | Whatever wily is | 22:37 |
| keithzg | Yeah, that's 15.10. Which is still Qt 5.4, then. | 22:37 |
| N3X15 | Crap. | 22:38 |
| N3X15 | Guess I'll have to use the arrow keys for a while longer. Thanks. | 22:38 |
| keithzg | No problem, N3X15; the next release (Xenial) should have Qt 5.5. | 22:39 |
| Fritigern | N3X15: note that the current alpha of Xenial does not yet have 5.5 (I just updated my VM to make sure) | 23:09 |
| N3X15 | Yeah, not making the jump to unstable just yet | 23:10 |
| N3X15 | Thanks for letting me know, however. | 23:10 |
| Fritigern | You could of course run it in a VM to see the current state. | 23:10 |
| N3X15 | That's the thing, it's already a VM :P | 23:11 |
| Fritigern | You know you can have more than one VM, right? :-) | 23:11 |
| ubernoob | whats the tester channel called? | 23:12 |
| Fritigern | I would guess it's called #test | 23:13 |
| ubernoob | just wondering cause i've upgraded to 16.04 and had install issues | 23:14 |
| Fritigern | In that case, I thin you are looking for #ubuntu+1 | 23:15 |
| ubernoob | thank you! is there a kubuntu+1? | 23:15 |
| Fritigern | Not that I am ware of. Though you can lways create that room yourself | 23:16 |
| ubernoob | ok thanks so much | 23:16 |
| bob2021 | Hi. Plasma is not seeing google-chrome or letting me launch it from the launch thingy. it was installed with apt and i've tried reinstalling. can someone help? | 23:53 |
| keithzg | bob2021: Interesting. If you just type in "google-chrome" to KRunner (I think the default is still alt+f2) does it nonetheless run? | 23:54 |
| keithzg | Alternatively, try that from a terminal session like Konsole. | 23:54 |
| bob2021 | keithzg - from a terminal session yes, that's how i'm in now. from krunner, no | 23:58 |
