[00:03] <valorie> BlueProtoman: what version of Kubuntu are you running?
[00:05] <valorie> there is no PPA necessary for Qt 5.5.1 in 15.10
[02:34] <Bomber4Chats> Smh for kubuntu
[02:36] <Bomber4Chats> It's insane how I have to be very very careful not to each a point where the system will decide to lose my laptop screen configuration when I disconnect my external screen from the laptop and leave me in the dark.
[02:36] <Bomber4Chats> The only solution being to reset cache, KDE, etc.
[06:08] <Abe_> hey my calendar is showing pictures? It never did that before ?
[06:10] <Abe_> how to turn it off? cool feature but i dont want it
[06:10] <Abe_> here to see what i ment
[06:10] <Abe_> http://www0.xup.in/exec/ximg.php?fid=14868241
[06:11] <Abe_> http://www0.xup.in/exec/ximg.php?fid=11514729
[06:11] <hateball> Abe_: what is it you want to turn off?
[06:11] <hateball> the transparency?
[06:11] <Abe_> No my calender just shows pictures now
[06:12] <Abe_> It never did that before
[06:12] <hateball> ah right.
[06:12] <hateball> Abe_: is this on plasma 5?
[06:12] <Abe_> No I'm using Plasma 4
[06:12] <Abe_> I think it's called plasma
[06:13] <hateball> hmmm, how strange. I was thinking if it was something new that included weather or so
[06:13] <hateball> I can't find any settings for background or something here (kde 4.x)
[06:13] <Abe_> No it changes pictures all 5-10 seconds?
[06:13] <Abe_> I never turn this on it was just there
[06:14] <Abe_> I have also kde 4.x
[06:14] <Abe_> does yours do that?
[06:15] <hateball> Abe_: nope, mine is just plain black, running regular oxygen as theme
[06:15] <hateball> Abe_: does changing your theme change it?
[06:15] <Abe_> I didn't change my theme for a long time
[06:16] <Abe_> I try hold on
[06:16] <hateball> this is what it looks like for me http://imgur.com/kRjgzYw
[06:17] <Abe_> changing the theme does not affect my calendar somehow
[06:18] <Abe_> but I know it wasn't there it was like yours
[06:18] <hateball> Abe_: what if you remove the calendar plasmoid and add it back?
[06:19] <hateball> I really have no idea why it would do that tho, there's no setting for a background in the first place
[06:20] <Fritigern> Looks like it's transparent, showing the desktop background behind it
[06:21] <hateball> yeah, but then it wouldnt change the image
[06:21] <hateball> well unless they rotate wallpaper every 5-10 sec :D
[06:21] <Abe_> No it's not the background image
[06:22] <Abe_> I don't even have those pics on my harddrive
[06:23] <Abe_> I dont see a backround setting either ? I mean it looks nice yeah but I would still like to turn it off
[06:24] <hateball> Abe_: did you try removing the plasmoid and adding it again?
[06:24] <Abe_> hold on
[06:24] <Abe_> its the digital clock right
[06:24] <hateball> yea
[06:25] <Abe_> lol
[06:25] <Abe_> now its gone
[06:25] <hateball> how very odd
[06:25] <Abe_> weird
[06:26] <Abe_> were did thos pics come from xD
[06:28] <Abe_> if it was a bug it was a funny one
[06:38] <valorie> em: after you move stuff where you want it, and remove the extra junk, you might click the "hamburger" icon ||| and lock
[06:38] <valorie> should stop the shenanigans
[09:14] <lordievader> Good morning.
[09:24] <r_rios> Hello, everyone. I've just updated my system from Kubuntu 12.04 to Kubuntu 14.04, but I'm not being able to enable the desktop effects. lsmod shows that fglrx is loaded. Any ideas?
[09:31] <hateball> r_rios: Can you run glxgears etc?
[09:32] <hateball> I don't dabble with AMD so I don't really know
[09:35] <r_rios> hateball: https://paste.kde.org/pntrp8nex
[09:36] <hateball> r_rios: Is this some hybrid gpu setup or something?
[09:36] <r_rios> When I try to open amdcccle, this is what I get: https://paste.kde.org/p7t3rejmf
[09:36] <hateball> r_rios: does it work if you use the... radeonsi driver is it?
[09:36] <lordievader> Sound like you need to recompile your fglrx driver.
[09:36] <hateball> Yeah, I know really nothing about AMD
[09:36] <lordievader> It is probably still built against the old kernel.
[09:37] <hateball> then the module wouldnt be loaded would it?
[09:37] <hateball> r_rios: what does "lspci -k" show?
[09:37] <hateball> for your VGA device
[09:37] <lordievader> True, but now it seems to be in a zombie state. Loaded but not really active.
[09:38] <r_rios> https://paste.kde.org/p8yvdo63e
[09:40] <r_rios> What's the difference between fglrx an fglrx-updates again?
[09:40] <lordievader> One could be newer.
[09:43] <r_rios> lordievader: So, I should dpkg-reconfigure fglrx-core, then?
[09:44] <lordievader> Err, I'd purge it and reinstall the package.
[09:45] <r_rios> I tried to do that, except that I didn't purge
[09:45] <r_rios> I'll try it again, purging this time
[09:55] <r_rios> Done. Do I have to restart to find out if it worked?
[09:56] <lordievader> Yes.
[09:56] <r_rios> Any way I can check this without restarting?
[09:56] <r_rios> I can't restart right now
[09:57] <lordievader> Err, not to my knowledge.
[09:58] <hateball> well you'll need to load the new module and restart X at the very least
[09:59] <lordievader> But even the tty's use the module, so the kernel won't let you remove the module.
[10:02] <r_rios> It worked, thanks :)
[13:10] <BluesKaj> Howdy all
[16:02] <AlterX> hello
[16:03] <AlterX> kubuntu is as nice as terrible regarding installation and stability
[16:03] <AlterX> I would like to know who is taking care of this
[16:04] <AlterX> kubuntu 15.10 is not working on vmware
[16:04] <AlterX> on virtualbox is working...for a while
[16:04] <AlterX> then everything magically disappear from the desktop
[16:05] <AlterX> installing on my asus g20aj, when you get it started and installed
[16:05] <AlterX> is never working anymore
[16:05] <AlterX> 10.04 is giving error during the installation and is aborting
[16:05] <AlterX> so what is the meaning of this distro?!? just to use the live (when is working)
[16:05] <AlterX> ???
[16:07] <AlterX> so is there a working kubuntu distro?!?!
[16:07] <AlterX> or as usual I have to use gentoo?
[16:16] <soul_> Haha AlterX
[16:16] <soul_> I know that feel
[16:16] <soul_> Sorry I can't help you with that AlterX.
[16:51] <marco-parillo> I am running Kubuntu on VMware Player right now. Strange display problems *might* be the result of HW acceleration.
[16:51] <marco-parillo> But, I never experienced that.
[16:54] <Agonizer_> Hi guys. i have and issue with kubuntu 15.10 and the ipv4 manually
[16:54] <Agonizer_> in graphical mode i cant set up the ip for a wired connection
[16:55] <Agonizer_> it keeping saying this:
[16:55] <Agonizer_> ipv4.addresses: this property cannot be empty for method=manual
[16:55] <Agonizer_> and never get the ip manually
[17:02] <BluesKaj> Agonizer_, not using network-manager?
[17:51] <Oderus> hey all, i realize this is a +1 issue likely but theres no kubuntu+1 channel so.. just wondering how to install context menu entries in dolphin. i've tried just clicking the install button, it installs, but does not function. probably wrong directory it installed to or something.. i tried a few other dir's, no dice. any ideas?
[17:58] <genii> Oderus: The #ubuntu+1 is for all next releases, including Kubuntu, not just the regular Ubuntu
[18:00] <kenaz> hello
[18:01] <AlterX> some one
[18:01] <AlterX> knows why kubuntu doesn't start after installation?!?!
[18:02] <kenaz> Hello i need some help to instal de kubuntu of ubuntu from boot?
[18:02] <AlterX> yes
[18:03] <AlterX> we have same problem here
[18:03] <kenaz> it´s means without a existant windows
[18:03] <AlterX> fyou don't need windows
[18:03] <AlterX> just boot usb stick or cd
[18:03] <AlterX> from bios
[18:03] <AlterX> and lunch live ubuntu
[18:04] <AlterX> then select install and follow the instructions
[18:04] <kenaz> but when i try to instal from de usb the screem is in black
[18:04] <AlterX> but pray that it will boot later on
[18:04] <kenaz> i download the file from the website and i copy it in the usb
[18:05] <AlterX> put in the option acpi=off
[18:05] <AlterX> no you can't just copy the iso on usb
[18:05] <AlterX> you have to create an image
[18:05] <AlterX> on it
[18:23] <AlterX> so there is not really an official support here
[20:14] <noaXess> hey.
[20:14] <noaXess> about kubuntu backports.. how long does it normally take, that backports landing packages are going to backports?
[20:15] <noaXess> ow... network going down...
[20:15] <genii> !donate
[20:48] <gsedej> Kubuntu 15.10 needs minumum 8GB free space for install???
[20:48] <gsedej> I can't install on my 8GB usb
[20:49] <gsedej> the "next" button is gray
[20:50] <gsedej> (kde partition tool actually says it's 7,38GB)
[20:50] <soee_> should not need that much
[20:51] <gsedej> is there a way to install "the kubuntu 15.10" on my 8GB usb?
[20:51] <soee_> BluesKaj: ^ any thoughts
[20:51] <soee_> !usb
[20:52] <gsedej> using persistant live USB is not good with PPA
[20:52] <soee_> gsedej: the USB you are trying to use is empty ?
[20:52] <gsedej> I would like to test NEON
[20:52] <gsedej> I pre-made 2 partitions 1. EXT4 and 2.swap 400MB
[20:53] <gsedej> Ubuntu has 4GB minimum space
[20:54] <gsedej> I deleted partitions, it still does not allow me
[20:56] <bprompt> gsedej:   you mean, ubuntu 9.10 has 4gbs minimum maybe, 14.04 takes up around 9.5gbs on a base install
[21:01] <gsedej> bprompt, hmm we are both wrong. Ubuntu 14.04.3 installer demands 6.6GB
[21:02] <gsedej> I am sure that fresh 14.04 installation needs less than 5GB
[21:03] <gsedej> anyway... the 8GB Kubuntu limit makes (real) installation on 8GB USB impossible
[21:07] <gsedej> 16.04 xenial alpha does demand 8.6 GB
[21:08] <gsedej> well... looks like I will need bigger usb
[21:15] <bprompt> hmm
[21:16] <bprompt> gsedej:     I said that, after my 14.04 installation took that much, thus, and yes, it was around 9.2 or 9.1 gbs IIRC, it was not 6.6
[21:16] <BluesKaj> gsedej, there'sa no reason the kubuntu image won't install ona 8Gb usb stick , try dd
[21:16] <gsedej> BluesKaj, i don't want live usb, I want real installation for NEON
[21:18] <BluesKaj> gsedej, dd will make the image bootable then you can install to the HDD from the installer or run it as live media OS
[21:19] <BluesKaj> anyway ...time to close up shop...later
[21:20] <gsedej> up to now, I could always make install on USB
[21:20] <gsedej> (using virtual box and raw disk (USB) access)
[21:20] <gsedej> ok... things just got bigger and my 8GB is not big anymore
