geniiejay: Does kdialog --passivepopup do anything?00:08
ejaygenii: It did work. After last update this is not working anymore.00:11
geniiI can find no mention of --popupmessage in either the manpages of kdialog, not the kde techbase documentation for kdialog00:14
geniiA grep of the kdialog source code for popupmessage also produces no result.00:19
ejaykdialog --passivepopup00:20
ejayAlso - calibre stoped working. Jesus, what a mess.00:23
denza242alright I seriously need help ASAP00:29
denza242how do I blacklist an input device?00:30
denza242er00:30
denza242how do I blacklist a device in xinput00:30
geniidenza242: Use --list-props to find which property is it's enable/disable property, use --set-prop to change it00:34
denza242genii: I mean permanently blacklist it00:34
denza242because having to switch to a TTY so everything doesn't get spammed wth crap is annoying00:35
geniidenza242: If you want to remove an entire device you don't want xinput ( which is for doing things like disabling a button or toggling touchpad on and off, etc), you just want to blacklist it's driver in a file in /etc/modprobe.d/00:37
denza242genii: that has the unfortunate side effect of somehow making the aforementioned problem worse. I've tried removing synaptics before but it's still buggy00:38
geniidenza242: If you've found some setting for the device using xinput which corrects the situation, you could put it in your .xinitrc or .xsession00:41
genii( to be automatically run )00:41
denza242genii: so if  I wanted to do xinput disable 13 && xinput float 13 how would I do that00:42
geniidenza242: You would open or create the /home/denza/.xinitrc file, put those commands in there, but with a single & after each00:44
denza242ok00:45

James0rplasma 5 is beautiful. just revisiting it again after trying it a little less than a year ago. still getting a decent amoutn of stuff crashing but seems usable. i'm on a machine with an Nvidia 750 ti gpu, are there known issues with nvidia?02:12
MichaelTunnellnvidia is probably the best supported except maybe a toss up between nvidia and intel02:14
MichaelTunnellI have a 760 and it's pretty much flawless02:14
MichaelTunnellJames0r: ^02:14
James0ri was having some major annoyances with the clock sizing in the panel before and that looks to be ironed out. panel looks and functions really nice.02:15

noaXesshey and good morning...06:13
noaXesshave made a fresh install of 15.10 with noveau graphic driver... have a asus laptop wih a intel and nvida graphiccard: Intel 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller, nvidia GK107M [GeForce GT 650M]06:16
noaXessso far so good... i don't use nvidia driver, cause the version in 15.10 repo does have a problem (konsole hangs with 100% cpu) and the latest from https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa is still not really for daily use..06:17
noaXessi also have a second monitor.. i can plugin on VGA port and it's working as i want.. so far so good..06:18
noaXesswhat i also installed is kubuntu-backport to get latest kf5 stuff06:18
noaXessbefore updating to backports, the main panel has worked fine.. means.. with only laptop monitor it's fine... if i plugin the VGA monitor.. main panel goes to VGA display.. instead of stay on laptop, which is primary...06:19
valoriehmmm06:19
noaXessif i plu out the VGA.. no main panel on laptop.. it disapears....06:19
valoriewithin a day or too, backports will get 5.5.406:19
noaXessif i re plugin VGA.. main panel is on VGA display.. strange.. i can work. but does anybody also hav this behavior?06:19
noaXesshey valorie06:19
valoriemight fix it06:19
=== kubuntu is now known as Guest33831
noaXessvalorie: 5.5.4? how can i check, which kf5 i have? i see eg. plasma-framework is 5.18.006:21
valorieplasmashell --version06:21
noaXessaha.. 5.5.306:22
valorieI have 5.5.4 because I installed for testing06:22
noaXessso stay tuned and hope it will be fixed ;)06:22
noaXessthanks06:22
noaXessvalorie: do you have a second monitor?06:22
valorienope, just a laptop06:22
valoriesorry06:23
noaXessyes.. a laptop with a VGA?06:23
valorieno monitor to hook it to though06:23
noaXessokey..06:24
noaXessabout panels' isn't there any option to have them on both monitors.. the same panel on both monitors?06:24
valorieyes, mirroring06:24
noaXessbut then alls is mirrored.. i mean only the panel ;)06:24
valoriethat I don't know06:25
valorieyou could ask in #plasma06:25
noaXessmy workaround for panle is in the moment to place a main panel on each display ..06:29
noaXessstrange is.. that on plug in/out, the change the display.. LOL06:29
valorieI believe that this is a problem with Qt 506:30
valorieso the Plasma devels have to try to work around it06:30
valorieuncool06:30
noaXessha.. now.. plasma died.. restarted plasma and now.. single main panel on laptop display..06:34
valoriehmmm, I've not had a plasma crash since 5.5.306:34
valoriewas pretty crashy before that06:35
noaXessbut maybe problem is with dual monitor06:35
noaXesswill search for a existing bug for my problem06:35
noaXessthere are similar bugs already reported.. hope it willb e fixed soon06:41
valorieunfortunately we're not likely to get Qt 5.5.6 into the LTS06:43
valoriethey keep moving the release date forward06:43

frischluftGood morning! Is there any solution to run kubuntu as a second OS nereby Windows 10?08:12
frischluftWindows 10 is very restrictive. so I am not sure if the installation would run successful either08:12
valorieof course08:15
valoriemost first-time installs of any linux distro is next to Windows08:16
valorie!dual-boot08:16
ubottuDual boot instructions: x86/AMD64: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DualBoot/Windows - Macs: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro https://help.ubuntu.com/community/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot08:16
valoriefrischluft: that's how I first ran linux, but then found I never used windows anymore08:17
frischluftyeah, but I run my first iso Kubuntu on Win 10 and it had been freezing.08:17
soeei have Win10 and Kubuntu installed next to each other08:18
frischluft@ubottu: thx w08:18
soeebut Win10 is just spyware08:18
frischluftsoee: yeah, I figured out the same!08:19
frischluftBut first impression was nice, easy handling and so on.08:19
frischluftcheers, I will give it a try, have a sunny day @all!08:19
soeethat is true, if we talk about how it works etc.08:19
valoriefrischluft: which version of Kubuntu did you install?08:23
valorieare you sure it has enough room to run?08:23
acheron88I have Windows on one HD and linux on a 2nd08:26
acheron88I hardly ever boot the windows one08:27
acheron88overkill having 2/separate HDs perhaps, but it bypasses all the usual hassle of trying to get them to co-exist on the same disk08:28
soee+108:29
valorieactually, I sort of have the same system here: kubuntu on the SSD, Win on the HD08:32
valoriebut I put most of ~/ onto the HD08:32
valoriemusic, videos, photos08:32
acheron88yes, I made a separate partition on the windows HD to store stuff on while running linux08:42

TFSHaving problems installing Kubuntu on a Dell Latitude D630 with 4gb of RAM. Tried 14.04 and 15.04, but Firefox will not load after installation completes.  I see the icon on the taskbar for 15 seconds, then nothing. Seems to be an install issue, but I can't find anything when searching on Google. I managed to download Google Chrome Stable version, but could not then get it to install. I don't specifically need Firefox, but I do need a w12:20
shallweBluesKaj: stranger, theres no option for this in desktop themes, bu i will try thanks man :)12:20
shallweTFS: hi, did you tryed run firefox in terminal?12:21
TFSSame problem. My son used same USB image to install to a Toshiba, and has had no problems.12:22
acheron88shallwe: what workspace theme do you have set in that12:22
shallweacheron88: default, breeze, kubuntu 15.1012:22
acheron88so are you saying it's translucent when it shouldn't be, or is not and you wish it was?12:23
acheron88TFS: any output/errors when running from terminal?12:24
shallweacheron88: sorry i got here kkk, its already 100%, its the background :)12:24
shallwei change and its ok now12:25
acheron88OK :)12:25
TFS<acheron88> Have just tried re-installing 14.04, using different image creator, and now have a corrupt install. Will need to re-do it. Oddly, when running kubuntu from the USB, rather than HDD, Firefox is working.12:27
