[01:19] <bedros> where can I find download for kubuntu 16.04?
[01:21] <heath_> http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/daily-live/current/
[01:50] <bedros> thanks
[08:25] <AppAraat> hello, is this the right place to talk about https://community.kde.org/Kubuntu/PPAs ?
[08:31] <AppAraat> I want to get Kubuntu Backports, so is it sufficient to add the Kubuntu Updates PPA? Does that include the Kubuntu Backports PPA ?
[08:58] <lordievader> Good morning
[09:01] <AppAraat> gm
[09:03] <lordievader> Hey AppAraat
[09:03] <AppAraat> hello :)
[09:06] <AppAraat> http://kde.kpaste.net/5dff099d - hey.. ho.... let's go!
[09:07] <valorie> AppAraat: kubuntu updates is just regular updates
[09:07] <valorie> https://kubuntu.org/news/plasma-5-5-3-and-frameworks-5-18-0-backported-to-kubuntu-15-10/
[09:16] <AppAraat> ah great, so I'm on the right track if I want to get updated backports it seems.
[09:18] <valorie> I use the commandline: sudo apt-add-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports
[09:18] <valorie> and then sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade
[09:29] <AppAraat> does that include also updating the dot releases? Because according to the PPA wiki:
[09:29] <AppAraat> "Backports of new major versions of Plasma, Frameworks and major KDE apps for Kubuntu which are not yet tested enough to go to Ubuntu Backports."
[09:29] <AppAraat> and then it says in the updates: "Updates for Kubuntu releases which are due to go to Ubuntu Updates. Mostly KDE point releases."
[09:32] <valorie> yes
[09:32] <valorie> not everything that kubuntu packages goes into the main Ubuntu archive
[09:33] <valorie> what does and doesn't, I'm not sure about -- I'm not a packager
[09:35] <AppAraat> ok, but what confuses me is then what the point is of having ppa:kubuntu-ppa/ppa if ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports already does what ppa:kubuntu-ppa/ppa does.
[09:53] <valorie> AppAraat: I don't know the answer to that question
[09:53] <valorie> you could ask in #kubuntu-devel, although the devels are not up yet
[09:53] <valorie> or on the mail list
[09:55] <AppAraat> ah ok sure, no problem :)
[10:01] <lordievader> Besides, it is weekend. Activity in #kubuntu-devel is low in the weekends.
[10:02] <valorie> my activity is about to become zero!
[10:02] <valorie> sleepy time
[10:03] <lordievader> valorie: Sleep well.
[10:04] <valorie> thanks!
[10:35] <prakhar> i am facing lot of performance issues with kubuntu install
[10:36] <prakhar> one of the processors is always  100%
[10:37] <prakhar> its even slower than windows.. and if in case i open heavy applications like eclipse IDE with firefox.. its worst
[10:37] <prakhar> can soeone help me out to fix this..
[10:37] <prakhar> i have used linuxmint and fedora earlier on the same machine... none of them had this problem.
[10:38] <prakhar> i am using kubuntu 15.10
[10:39] <prakhar> Let me know if I should provide any more info
[10:51] <prakhar> anyone there ?
[10:53] <lordievader> prakhar: What is taking the cpu hostage?
[10:54] <prakhar> its mostly firefox ... it takes 30% of CPU
[10:54] <prakhar> then a lot of kworker threads
[10:54] <lordievader> prakhar: Could you run 'vmstat 1' for a while and post some of its output?
[10:54] <prakhar> i ocassionaly get system crash popup
[10:54] <lordievader> !paste
[10:55] <prakhar> ok
[11:06] <lordievader> !paste | prakhar
[11:06] <lordievader> Please do paste it there again.
[11:08] <prakhar> lordievader : https://paste.kde.org/pgxqwngrs
[11:09] <lordievader> Quite a bit of io-wait, but not too severe. How old is the drive in the machine?
[11:10] <prakhar> lordievader : around 2 years
[11:10] <lordievader> prakhar: Is the package 'smartmontools' installed?
[11:10] <prakhar> no
[11:10] <prakhar> lordievader : should i install it?
[11:12] <lordievader> Please do, then run 'sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda' and paste the output.
[11:18] <prakhar> lordievader : https://paste.kde.org/pu5yorkk6
[11:20] <lordievader> prakhar: You need to make a backup now, that disk is toast.
[11:21] <lordievader> 520 reallocated sectors...
[11:22] <lordievader> !pm | prakhar
[11:22] <prakhar> sure
[11:23] <lordievader> prakhar: That value should be 0, a >0 value indicates a dying disk.
[11:23] <prakhar> okey
[11:23] <prakhar> i have it installed besided windows
[11:24] <prakhar> could that be a reason for these sectors
[11:25] <lordievader> No, this is a disk issue. Not a software issue.
[11:25] <lordievader> It can happen anywhere, to any OS.
[11:27] <maxx> hi. when i watch a video or scroll a website in firefox, the screen is tearing heavily. i am using a laptop with an intel graphics card. what can i do to solve this problem?
[11:27] <prakhar> lordievader : i believe i will monitor this reallocation count for some days because if this is increasing continuously then its a problem but if it stays constant then its some inbuilt problem
[11:28] <prakhar> which is not increasing further
[11:28] <prakhar> but anyways.. the original problem of kubuntu being slow
[11:28] <prakhar> while linuxmint and fedora were blazing fast still is intact
[11:28] <lordievader> prakhar: Due to reallocated sectors disks become very slow, this is most likely the root cause of your kubuntu being slow.
[11:29] <prakhar> why were other installations not slow then
[11:29] <prakhar> should i retry installing it
[11:29] <prakhar> may be i have left some additional unused space while installation
[11:30] <lordievader> prakhar: I'd replace the disk, use this one for non-critical stuff.
[11:31] <prakhar> replacing the disk would mean reinstalling everyhing from scratch... i should contact a professinal in that case
[11:32] <lordievader> Installing Kubuntu ain't that hard.
[12:26] <BluesKaj> Howdy folks
[13:33] <HKitain_home> Heya. I'm trying to update from vivid to wily, and my do-release-upgrade gives a weird error.
[13:34] <lordievader> HKitain_home: Could you pastebin that error?
[13:35] <HKitain_home> lordievader:  http://pastebin.com/Tm4wh6eT
[13:35] <HKitain_home> sounds like localization troubles to me
[13:36] <lordievader> Indeed, seems like that.
[13:36] <lordievader> You might want to set your locale to en_US temporarily.
[13:37] <HKitain_home> how do i do that again?
[13:38] <lordievader> HKitain_home: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Locale
[13:46] <HKitain_home> lordievader: Thank you! Much obliged.
[14:07] <vincent42> hi all, is it me or , when I have several X session and I switch between them, all processes of previous sessions are paused ?
[14:07] <vincent42> for example; I ajhve clementine playing music, it pauses when I switch to another X session
[14:08] <vincent42> or I had steam (for games) downloading, it stopped downloading
[14:08] <vincent42> then resume when I come back
[14:10] <vincent42> apparently I'm not the first one to notice : http://askubuntu.com/questions/641906/how-to-prevent-pausing-unactive-user-session
[15:50] <BluesKaj> vincent42,  are these actually Xsessions or are they activities or virtaul desktops , if so i recommend you use activities if you are running plasma 5
[15:51] <BluesKaj> vincent42, and Xsessions on ubuntu are differnt than those on kde/kubuntu
[16:00] <lordievader> BluesKaj: They are?
[16:01] <BluesKaj> read his post
[16:02] <BluesKaj> url
[16:03] <BluesKaj> dunno anyone who usses xsessions anyway, better of using a container OS like NixOS
[16:03] <BluesKaj> better off
[16:03] <lordievader> Multiuser sessions are usually run as seperate X sessions.
[16:04] <lordievader> vincent42: Anyhow it makes sense that you see a last frame from when you left. It ain't efficient to keep updating a session you are not using.
[16:05] <lordievader> The audio not continueing to play is probably due to pulseaudio. I've seen that behaviour before with Pulseaudio. I have forgotten how to fix it though.
[16:06] <vincent42> BluesKaj: X sessions
[16:07] <vincent42> differnt users
[16:08] <lordievader> vincent42: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=162628
[16:08] <vincent42> that's pulseaudio's fault ?
[16:10] <lordievader> The audio not playing in an inactive session, yes.
[16:10] <vincent42> ok so I guess steam got paused because it was somehow connected to pulseaudio
[16:10] <vincent42> even though it wasn't outputting sound at that time
[16:11] <vincent42> sound like a possible explanation
[16:11] <BluesKaj> depends whether you need pulseaudio and the input and output settings that are set there , intel-hda audio doesn't need pulse because their drivers are written to run without it.
[16:12] <lordievader> I don't know about steam. But yes, an audio application gets silenced when the X session is inactive.
[16:12] <vincent42> that'('(s pretty dumb
[16:12] <vincent42> I mean X is about video not audio
[16:13] <vincent42> but OK I see the problem ....
[16:14] <lordievader> Well, it ain't really about X session being active. If you log into a tty the audio should continue.
[16:14] <vincent42> this is even more fun that as far I as know, pure X applications are not paused :)
[16:14] <vincent42> yes ok it's about TTY not X
[16:14] <vincent42> but still TTY are visual outputs
[16:15] <lordievader> In basic form, your user needs to have an active session somewhere for pulseaudio to play audio.
[16:15] <vincent42> but say, a process just doing anything else thatn audio would not be pauised
[16:15] <vincent42> paused
[16:16] <vincent42> it's just a very special case for audio
[16:16] <vincent42> does't feel very consistent
[16:17] <lordievader> I don't think X does any updates to the graphical side of things, but I don't see a reason applications should hang on that.
[16:17] <vincent42> well, they are not blocked on their drawing calls
[16:17] <vincent42> everything is still going on
[16:17] <vincent42>  at least it used to be like this
[16:18] <vincent42> whereas audio is really blocked
[16:49] <dougiel> can someone please help me purge the plex media virus from my kubuntu 14.04 LTS machine - google is lying to me...
[16:49] <dougiel> or every page is wrong.
