VxMAnyone know if there's a way to make spotify work with lates kubuntu?01:05
geniiVxM: What problem are you having with it?01:07
VxMI installed it following instructions on their website and I can find it in search but it just shows at taskbar for few seconds and then disappears01:09
geniiVxM: If you run it in Konsoile with: spotify     ... does it complain about libgcrypt.so.11 ?01:15
VxMecho deb http://repository.spotify.com stable non-free | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/spotify.list01:16
VxMthats what it gives01:16
geniiWhat you pasted was one of the instructions off their page to install it01:18
genii( and not presumably a link to a pastebin with what happens when you try to run it)01:18
VxMoh right that was on my clip board still01:19
VxMsec01:19
VxMspotify: error while loading shared libraries: libgcrypt.so.11: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory01:19
VxMthat's what I get01:19
geniiVxM: What it needs is for you to make a symbolic link called libgcrypt.so.11 which points to your actual one which is a later version. Are you on 32 or 64 bit, or a different platform altogether?01:25
* genii makes more coffee01:27
VxMI'm on 64bit os01:28
geniiVxM: Then please give the result of: ls -l /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcrypt*   ...and then I can give you the correct command to make the symbolic link01:30
VxMlrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     19 helmi  5 18:25 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcrypt.so.20 -> libgcrypt.so.20.0.301:32
VxM-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 924096 touko 21  2015 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcrypt.so.20.0.301:32
geniiVxM: So then: sudo ln -s /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcrypt.so.20.0.3 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcrypt.so.1101:33
VxMok done. It should work now?01:34
geniiHopefully. Although it looks like you have libgcrypt20 series, not sure if they have compatible libraries01:37
geniiWe will know if it throws an error after tryig to run it again from Konsole01:37
genii!info libgcrypt11 wily01:38
ubottuPackage libgcrypt11 does not exist in wily01:38
geniiHm01:38
genii!info libgcrypt11 vivid01:38
ubottuPackage libgcrypt11 does not exist in vivid01:38
geniiInteresting. My Vivid box has 11 but apt doesn't know where it came from ( probably from a previous Kubuntu, this one has been upgraded continuously)01:40
genii!info libgcrypt11 precise01:40
ubottulibgcrypt11 (source: libgcrypt11): LGPL Crypto library - runtime library. In component main, is standard. Version 1.5.0-3ubuntu0.4 (precise), package size 275 kB, installed size 615 kB01:40
VxMWell this is less than week old01:41
geniiVxM: Did it throw some error when you tried: spotify       at command line?01:42
VxMlib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcrypt.so.11: version `GCRYPT_1.2' not found (required by /opt/spotify/spotify-client/Data/libcef.so)01:42
VxMI pasted that earlier but accidentally left / at begining01:43
geniiYeah, so just linking will be no good. So now we need to remove the symbolic link: sudo rm /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcrypt.so.1101:44
genii..and to do the more complicated procedure :)01:44
genii!info libgcrypt11 trusty01:45
ubottulibgcrypt11 (source: libgcrypt11): LGPL Crypto library - runtime library. In component main, is important. Version 1.5.3-2ubuntu4.2 (trusty), package size 231 kB, installed size 607 kB01:45
geniiWhich is: grab the Trusty deb file, grab out the shared library file from it and put it in /opt/spotify/lib    then make a symlink to it in that spot, then run ldconfig on that dir01:46
geniiSmoke, be back in a couple minutes01:47

geniiVxM: Are you ready for the next set of instructions? :)01:53
VxMnot yet. I found libcrypt.so.1 Do I need to move it or what? I'm kinda new with this01:53
geniiNo, don't bother removing that one01:54
geniiVxM: I will give you now the instructions, one line at a time:wget http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/libg/libgcrypt11/libgcrypt11_1.5.3-2ubuntu4.2_amd64.deb01:57
geniiVxM: tar -xvf data.tar.xz01:57
geniiVxM: sudo mv lib /opt/spotify/spotify-client01:58
geniiVxM: sudo chown -R root:root /opt/spotify/spotify-client/lib01:59
VxMhold on01:59
VxMthat tar gave me Cannot open: No such file or directory01:59
geniiApologies, forgot one command right after the wget one01:59
geniiVxM:  ar -x libgcrypt11_1.5.3-2ubuntu4.2_amd64.deb02:00
geniiVxM: From that ar -x, go to the next ones02:00
geniiVxM: After the sudo chown command which i gave, to do:02:01
geniiVxM: sudo ldconfig /opt/spotify/spotify-client/lib02:01
VxMOk I got that far02:03
geniiVxM: If you have completed the ldconfig command now and all of the previous commands completed OK, try again with running spotify on the command line02:04
VxMYeah I got it working now.02:10
VxMThanks alot about that02:10
geniiVxM: Glad to assist02:10
VxMthough now I understand why some people find linux dark and mysterious world02:12
geniiHeh :)02:12
geniiVxM: Hopefully at some point Spotify updates their package to the libgcrypt20 and solves the issue02:12
VxMinstall-> agree -> next -> next -> done doesn't work anymore02:13
VxMyeah hope so02:13

sea`I want to run an untrusted program. I've made another user for it and am about to run it under that user. I see countless people online saying that it should be run in a chroot or a virtual machine, though. What's wrong with an unprivileged user account? I thought UNIX was a multi-user system, but if running unsafe programs /requires/ a separate machine (virtualized or not), then it obviously isn't. What's the reason for this?07:15

lordievaderilgios: Under Kubuntu network interfaces are configured through Network Manager.10:08
lordievaderNormally, anyhow.10:08
ilgioslordvander under NetworkManager the ip is correctly set, but if i do from command line a ifconfgi eht0, i have another ip address10:09

=== Mylon_ is now known as Mylonian
MylonianSo windows keep flashing like 10 times rapidly before minimizing/maximizing/switching.  It's grating on me.17:01
MylonianIs this a known issue?  I just installed, but do I need to update video drivers?17:02
clivejoMylonian: never heard of that issue17:03
clivejois there any particular time it does it?17:03
MylonianIt seemed fine during the live demo and during like, the first 5 minutes I was using it.  Then I clicked in Muon to install Pidgin and it froze for a few seconds so I clicked again and then all hell broke loose and now it does it always, even after a restart.17:04
MylonianFirst 5 minutes after the fresh install I mean.17:05
MylonianLemme try powering it off entirely...17:05
GreenDayLemme or Lemy?17:05
GreenDay:)17:05
clivejohave you the open source or proprietary drivers installed?17:06
MylonianWhatever the default is.17:08

MylonianA power cycle seems to have fixed it.  For now...17:09
* clivejo fingers crossed :)17:09
MylonianSo the default IM client in kubuntu doesn't support IRC.17:11
MylonianWhat's up with that?17:11
=== struk|desk|away is now known as struk|desk
DarinMillerMylonian: I caught the tail end of the flashing issue.  From the limited description, the flashing may be fixed by toggling the composter off/on Alt+shift+f12.17:14
DarinMillerMylonian: KDE has an IRC dedicated app call Konversation.  It works quite well but it does not integrate with telepathy (the default IM app).17:17
MylonianThanks for the info.17:17
DarinMillerMylonian: Since I missed the 1st part or your post, are you running 15.10?17:20
d12fkI'm trying to configure a "Office 365/Lync" instant messaging account in wiley using the backports ppa. It tells me I need the "sipe" telepathy connection manager. Any idea what package I need to install? Searching for sipe didn't bring anthing up in muon and going through the results for telepathy in aptitude didn't indicate anything obvious either.17:31
BluesKajd12fk, I see pidgin-sipe and pidgin-sipe-dbg in regular muon, not the default muon discover17:35
MylonianYeah, I think it's 15.1017:36
MylonianAnd the flickering is back.17:37
DarinMillerMylonian: The flashing issue is reduced with newer versions of Plasma.  Are you familiar with the backports ppa?17:37
BluesKajnothing about sipe with telepathy though17:37
MylonianI am not.  I haven't touched Linux in like... 5 years?17:38
BluesKajd12fk,^17:38
DarinMillerMylonian: did the alt+shift+f12 fix the flashing?17:38
MylonianIt did.17:38
DarinMillerMylonian: Have you ever installed PPA's?17:39
MylonianI have not!  Unless that's what Muon does.17:40
DarinMillerKDE has a backports ppa that brings new releases to older distributions.  https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/ubuntu/backports17:40
MylonianKubuntu 15.10 is an older distribution?17:40
d12fkBluesKaj: thanks, pidgin-sipe at least made plasma not crash any more when adding a sipe account via libpurple17:41
Mylon1Alright, here I am with the troublesome laptop.17:41
Mylon1And somehow I have a presence on this server with my proper username but I'm not sure where/how.17:42
DarinMiller15.10 is the latest Canonical/Kubuntu release but does not have the latest KDE packages (Frameworks, Plasma, application). The backport ppa enables new releases before the next release of Kubuntu.17:42
DarinMillerMylonian: to install the ppa, go to the command line and paste: sudo apt-add-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports17:43
Mylon1Ah, figures.  Linux still very much requires the command line.17:44
DarinMillerThen run sudo apt update  && sudo apt full-upgrade.17:44
Mylon1And I can't seem to find it... Go me.17:44
DarinMillerNot really. There is a gui method but it is more complicated to explain from a chat window.17:45

MylonBut I also thought Youtube went to html5...19:02
BluesKajMylon, using firefox? if so then install the plugin-installer, chrome has itr's own configured embedded flash19:03

DarinMillerdid you resolve the notification location issue?23:03
MylonI found an article that involved installing a program to customize notifications.23:03
MylonBut I didn't wanna do that.23:03
DarinMillerBy chance did you change your screen resolution?23:03
MylonNot that I know of.23:04
MylonThis article shows that there's 6 possible locations, and they currently appear at #2: http://askubuntu.com/questions/128474/how-to-customize-on-screen-notifications23:04
DarinMillerI have seen issues with plasma remembering the smallest screen resolution and displaying/centering things accordingly.23:04
DarinMillerfrom konsole try this: killall plasmashell && plasmashell &23:05
DarinMillerThat will restart your plasma shell.23:05
DarinMillerthen, to check notifications, run this from the konsole: kdialog --title syslog --passivepopup "foo" 223:05
MylonOr you could just say my name in chat because Pidgin uses notifications.  :323:06
DarinMillerok, I will have to give pidgin a spin.  I have not tried it in years but I liked it when I used to use it.23:07
MylonIt supports damn near everything.23:07
DarinMillerI saw they supported MS protocols which would be handy for work IM's.23:08
MylonI just had a problem in Windows where it would occasionally need a restart after a few weeks because it ran out of memory or would end up eating a processor.23:08
MylonBut that could have been the windows GUI they used.  I forget the name of it...23:09
MylonSo after killing Plasmashell and relaunching it, I seem to lack a taskbar.23:10
DarinMillerensure to exit konsole by typing exit. Otherwise, it will kill all child processes launched from the shell.23:11
DarinMilleruse alt-spacebar to launch krunner and type: plasmashell23:11
MylonI typed plasmashell + enter into the alt-spacebar widget that popped up and nothing happened.23:12
DarinMillerClarification: Clicking on the the windows controls to close konsole kills the child processes.23:12
DarinMillertype alt-spacebar and type konsole23:13
MylonNothing.23:13
DarinMillerthen type "plasmashell &"23:13
MylonThe konsole doesn't pop up.23:13
DarinMillerwhy typing in the widget, does it bring up a list of matching items as you type?23:15
DarinMillerwhy = when23:16
MylonNo, I just see a box I can type into and nothing happens except what I type appears in the box.23:16
MylonSo yeah, I seem to be stuck with the windows I have open.23:17
DarinMillerthe little box is called krunner.  it's supposed to match anything it can find on your computer with the text that you type... but krunner seems to be misbehaving.23:18
MylonI can get a console by hitting alt-f1, but I don't think that's what I want.23:18
DarinMillerby chance did you assign a keyboard shortcut to open konsole?23:18
Mylonctrl-alt f123:18
MylonNot that I know of.23:18
DarinMilleryou could try the killall plasmashell && plasmashell & from the ctrl-alt-f1 but I don't think it will work as it will not see the necessary components.23:20
MylonHuh, so I log in to the other workstation or whatever it's called and it says ** system update required **23:23
MylonErr23:23
MylonSystem restart.23:23
MylonSo maybe I should just reboot.23:23
DarinMillerI think at this point I would recommend a reboot.  Close down everything, drop to the ctrl+alt+f1 prompt and type reboot.23:24
Mylon'k, brb.23:24
DarinMilleryou could also stop sddm and then restart it, but reboots are typically pretty fast.23:24
MylonAlright, notifications appear in bottom-right.23:27
DarinMillercool23:28
MylonThanks for helping me out.23:28
MylonNow my next task... Figure out how to get palmsense on my touchpad to work right.23:28
DarinMillernp.  The commands  I gave should not have caused to many problems.23:28
MylonI just tried alt-space and it works as it should.23:29
