lenswipeehi, i'm finding my kubuntu very slow :(09:02
=== heinkel_111 is now known as heinkel_flying
Smurphylenswipee: define slow.09:24
lenswipeeA long time to load. I have set encrption when installing Kubuntu. Has it got something to do with that?09:27
SmurphyHow long agon did you install it. Could be Baloo still indexing your files.09:33
SmurphyAlso - I'd make sure that /tmp and /var/tmp are running on Ram-Disks.09:33
SmurphyDisable Session Management09:33
lenswipeeWhat are Ram-Disks?09:42
Smurphyvirtual disks held in ram.09:46
nigelenswipee: virtual disks stored in RAM... they behave like normal drives. but since RAM is volatile memory, all data is gone after rebooting.09:46
lenswipeeI'm guessing you need alot of memory to bother with that09:47
Smurphydefine lot ? the ramdisk size is adapted automatically.,09:50
nigelenswipee: depends on what you are planning to do with. for normal home machines its not suitable for holding big data09:50
nigelenswipee: on servers, with huge RAM its used to hold databases for example to benefit from its very high access speed09:51

Guest59441Does anyone know whether extended attributes are enabled by default on Kubuntu 15.10? I guess they are since baloo uses them?10:02
Guest59441I ask because dropbox is supposed to sync them but it's only syncing it's own metadata, not the stuff I added using baloo, like tags and ratings10:03
valoriehmmm, I wonder if there is a xattr package or so10:06

valorieGuest59441: look at http://askubuntu.com/questions/124102/how-do-i-enable-extended-attributes-on-ext410:08

BluesKajSmurphy, dunno much about plasma-widget-kimpanel & libpam-kwallet5 dependency issues, since I don't use them, perhaps the devs at #kubuntu-devel could help you14:00
SmurphyI think it's the launchpad stable branch.14:01

bas__I'd like to use a nightly build of LibreCAD. However the ppa is not yet available for wily/15.10. Which group is the correct one to address regarding this issue? (K)Ubuntu-developers, LibreCAD developers or any one I didn't think of?14:06
BluesKajbas__, then I suggest you use a daily build of kubuntu 15.10 to get the latest available version of LibreCAD14:12

AerosonicHey guys.15:58
AerosonicSo I'm on the latest edge of KDE+Ubuntu, but latest KDE is crashing like my grandma a car.15:59
AerosonicAnd it's not as fun as you might imagine.15:59
Walexthanks for letting us know to avoid "the latest edge of KDE+Ubuntu"16:00
AerosonicI appreciate your subtleties and sarcasm, but I'm inquiring specifically about a Thinkpad X1 Carbon 2nd Gen.16:01
BluesKajAerosonic, make sure you update and upgrade your packages16:01
AerosonicBluesKaj: I have. I just have a shit abortion of a machine on my hands that was certainly not intended to be born.16:01
AerosonicI have an X1 Carbon 2013 which works just fine. But 2014 with its darn 1440p res is driving KDE nuts.16:02
AerosonicEverything is either too small to read or too big to fit on the screen.16:03
AerosonicI would screenshot, but the prtscr button was replaced by ~16:03
AerosonicWhich is a stupid fucking place to put either one of those.16:04

SohamGHey guys, does the kubuntu 14.04 iso come with the plasma 5 desktop?16:06
AerosonicBluesKaj: Sorry about that.16:07
BluesKajSohamG, not yet, probly never16:08
BluesKajSohamG, however the new LTS 16.04 will be released in April whch has the plasma 5 desktop16:10
SohamGBluesKaj, Ok, thanks. I just wanted to check out kubuntu with plasma 5 and was wondering whether I should download the 14.04 one or 15.04 one, considering the support for 15.04 is over...16:11
BluesKajSohamG, in the meantime you could try 15.1016:12
BluesKajyou'll have to do a clean install ,16:12
SohamGBluesKaj, I'll do it virtually. The 15.10 is still supported, right?16:13
BluesKajSohamG, yes16:13
SohamGI'm not too familiar with their numbering system16:13
BluesKaj15 is the yr , 10 is the month16:14
BluesKajnumbered by the release date in other words16:14
SohamGSo the (odd number).04 version is supported for 9 months, and the (odd number).10 for another 9, right?16:15
BluesKajyes16:15
SohamGOK, thanks again!16:16
BluesKajthen there's LTS16:16
BluesKaj!LTS16:16
ubottuLTS means Long Term Support. Until 12.04 LTS versions of Ubuntu were supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server; since 12.04 (Precise Pangolin) LTS versions will be supported for 5 years on the desktop and server. The latest LTS version of Ubuntu is !Trusty (Trusty Tahr 14.04)16:16
BluesKajSohamG,^16:16
SohamGBluesKaj, Yeah, I knew that :P16:17

dhanrajone more question : do you know how should i use this : https://github.com/openSUSE/libsolv16:57
soeeto create a package ?16:58
dhanraji want to use it in another software17:00
BluesKajsoee, good call there  ;-)17:00
dhanrajbut i havent used it before i just have compiled and installed it from source17:00
soeedhanraj: dunno, never used it and i'm not sure how it works. Looks like you compile it and through available commands create package17:02
soeeBluesKaj: thanks, we had similar problem with some other file once and Plasma devs suggest not to use dolphin with sudo17:03
dhanrajohk but then do you know how should i use it to do dependency check17:03
soeedhanraj: nope, but since it is in openSUSE repository on github, maybe ask on their support channel17:03
BluesKajsoee, yes GUIs alway need kdesudo, but I didn't realize the xbel file would be the result17:04
BluesKajof sudo with a gui17:04
dhanrajsoee: ohk and do you know of similar package in debian?17:04
soeedhanraj: nope, i do not do packaging :) again jump to #debian and ask there17:05
dhanrajsoee: ohk  thanks for the help so far17:05
BluesKajdhanraj, investigate git on ubuntu/kubuntu , unless you run debian, then this not the place to ask17:07
dhanraji run kubuntu thats why i asked here17:10
dhanrajall questions17:10
BluesKajok good17:10
BluesKajdhanraj, libsolv-toolsetc are available in the repos and package manager17:12
dhanrajohk i will look into it17:12
BluesKajwhy do you need to compile fropm source?17:13
dhanraji want to use it in another software to check for package dependency17:13
BluesKajwhich package depenency ?17:15
BluesKajdam keyboard. needs cleaning again17:16
dhanrajif i remove some package then it should give warning if other package depends on that17:17
