[08:16] it never leaks (at least not up to the point of beeing OOM-killed) when i use it during the day. [08:17] estan: I even got that problem on my android device. [08:17] But the sacrifice is a nice thing... :} [08:17] it's firefox 44.0.2, and the only plugins i have installed are flash, java and some OpenH264 plugin from Oracle for WebRTC. [08:18] Smurphy: heh, yea. it's not that i'm particularly bothered by it since it doesn't do it when i use it regularly. [08:18] sometimes i close it down when i go home. [08:18] but i realize now that functionality is built-in :) [08:22] I thought it was common knowledge that's how Firefox (or any browser really) works :p [08:25] heh yea, i guess. though on my home laptop, it's at least not OOM-killed. it's just huge most of the time. [08:25] funny thing is i switched from chromium some year ago as i was tired of its memory consuption. [08:26] Firefox just feels sluggish in general to me, so I run Chromium [08:28] yea. i might switch back, for some variation in pain, heh. [08:57] Good morning. [10:33] Hello !

[15:57] BluesKaj: I am running kubuntu live from my usb, but I need to put a new kubuntu.iso on that usb, Im wondering if that is possible [15:58] not on a usb that' in use and mounted [15:58] Rockyfelle,^ [15:58] Shouldnt there be a way to load kubuntu live entirely into ram [15:58] So it would allow for this [15:59] I mean the .iso is just 1gb [15:59] Isuppose you could chroot, but I've never tried it [16:03] Fair enough, something I\ve learned from kubuntu is not to install it on a usb [16:03] Seems to never load [16:04] what did you use to install the image/iso? [16:05] On the live on im running now? netbootin something [16:06] if you used unetbootin then that's probly the issue , since it fails most of the time, startup disk creator or dd are your best options IME [16:08] No the live one runs fine, I'm talking about my other usb where I actually litereally installed kubuntu [16:09] Which was installed, uh, from a CD I think [16:11] Rockyfelle, make sure you have USB setup as first in the boot sequence in the UEFI/BIOS [16:13] I dont think ive ever done that, unless you mean just select to boot it by pressing f8 or similar during bios bootup [16:13] speaking of booting up, my third installation of kubuntu which is on my hdd, wont even load infinitely, it just shows some undescores blinking then goes back to bios [16:14] nope, you have to set up the USB as first in the boot sequence in the BIOS itself [16:14] Why would I have to do that, ive never done that before when booting up another device [16:15] But selecting it by pressing f8 or similar during bios bootup should achieve the same thing as youre saying [16:16] never heard of that [16:21] F8 must ae particular to your computer/laptop brand, that's totally new to me [16:28] Rockyfelle, why don't you just download a new image , burn it to a cd and install the new kubuntu to a partitionon your HDD [16:28] Cause Ive already done that, and I dont want to reinstall everything [16:29] Im currently trying boot repair [16:32] which kubuntu is installed then ? [16:33] What do you mean_ [16:33] which version? [16:33] Im not sure, fairly recent [16:33] Not LTS [16:34] Hopefully ill just figure out boot repair and get it running [16:34] run lsb_release -a [16:35] What will that dp? [16:35] it will show the release number [16:36] No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS Release: 14.04 Codename: trusty [16:36] Seems to show the live kubuntu [16:36] That im currently using [16:38] Im kind of afraid of messing around with boot repair since I dont know enough to not mess up [16:38] well, 16.04 LTS will be released in April, you can upgrade directly then from 14.04LTS , that's my recommendation [16:39] all boot rpair can help you with is reinstall the grub bootloader on your HDD not the usb stick [16:40] I dont actually want to use LTS, I need to get the normal version before tomorrow into the usb so I can install it to another computer, to do this I want to use kubuntu thats installed on my HDD, but that one wont boot [16:42] which normal version are yoy talking about ? [16:42] you [16:43] The one that isnt LTS [16:43] Which would be 15.10 [16:43] have you done any research about kubuntu at all ? [16:44] Why do you wonder that_ === kubuntu is now known as Guest79682 [16:46] because you have no idea about the releases , look here http://ftp.belnet.be/kubuntu.org/daily-live/pending/ [16:47] It seems I know them perfectly well? [16:48] I have no idea what you dont think I know about, the newest release on the download page is 15.10 [16:49] ok then download it and install it [16:49] I would, if I could boot into my HDD kubuntu [16:50] what happens when you try to boot into it ? any deatils about errors etc/ [16:50] It shows blinking undescores then goes back into bios [16:50] bios ? [16:51] yes, the bios menu [16:51] from where I selected to boot said HDD [16:52] are there any other hdds on the computer? [16:53] Yes, 3 including that one, one runs windows [16:56] Rockyfelle, did you install windows recently, after instlling linux? [16:56] No, its been there for years [16:57] Linux install was fairly recently on my 3rd drive [17:01] and you kubuntu drive doesn't boot at all and if boot repair can't fix grub then perhaps the drive or parttions are corrupted [17:02] it may work, I could be using it incorrectly, heres what it tells me [17:02] GPT detected. Please create a BIOS-Boot partition (>1MB, unformatted filesystem, bios_grub flag). This can be performed via tools such as Gparted. Then try again. Alternatively, you can retry after activating the [Separate /boot/efi partition:] option. [17:03] !UEFI [17:03] UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI [17:03] Rockyfelle,^ [17:04] I dont want it to boot from the same disc as windows, but from its own disc, I can boot usbs etc fine, just not that specific kubuntu disc [17:05] disc|drive [17:06] yes that's because your uefi boot partition doesn't have grub installed on it for that kubuntu OS [17:07] Mylon: Are webm. a possible background ? [17:09] Rockyfelle, in the uefi /bios set the kubuntu disk to boot in legacy mode and disable quick start and secure boot [17:09] Ive already disabled those, I doubt kubuntu can even start now cause I removed the boot partition [17:13] well then someone else has to help you since I'm no expert on setting up uefi boot ...I use legacy mode and dos partition table , not gpt === JonathanS is now known as JonathanD [17:18] Secure boot is disabled by the bios is complaining about it being enabled....

[19:32] Now the amount of risk depends on what the upgrade path is. [19:33] But, all advice should start with backing up your data (I do not bother backing up applications or configurations, but some do)/ [19:35] Okay thank marco-parillo. Which upgrade path would you suggest? [19:37] If you are already on 14.04, I would keep updating / upgrading. You will be automatically notified when 16.04.1 is released. [19:41] This is the next TLS? [19:41] Is there any estimate date? [19:42] Steffstoff, April 21st [19:43] Steffstoff: 16.04 will arrive April 21, but it will be a while before first point release of 16.04.1 ..likely June-July. At that point you can go 14.04.X -> 16.04.1 [19:43] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XenialXerus/ReleaseSchedule [19:43] That's sounds really nice. And I can do this upgrade without any risk? [19:43] ( LTS to LTS becomes an available option when first point release arrives) [19:44] right , forgot about that [19:44] hi [19:44] where is here ? [19:44] i am first using here :) [19:45] @ BluesKaj right to upgrade without any risk? [19:47] there are always risks when upgrading from one version to another , but bear in mand what genii just posted about the first point release of 16.04.1 , Steffstoff [19:48] Okay so I should wait until June-July to upgrade 16.04.1. I undersand. Thank huys! [19:48] where is here ? [19:48] zeroday: You are in the Kubuntu support channel on the Freenode network [19:49] ok .. what is mean ?

Due to my KOrganizer problem I'd like to reinstall the whole KDE "suite" how can I do this? I'd use: sudo apt-get install --reinstall [22:08] But which paket I have to reinstall? [22:10] Steffstoff: ahmm korganizer maybe? [22:11] that isn't enough, because it doesn't fix my problem. [22:11] Steffstoff: hmm dunno koffice then I gather [22:12] Steffstoff: what was the original issue with korganizer anyway? [22:13] bprompt: https://askubuntu.com/questions/740919/korganizer-caldav-calendar-disappeared [22:13] I hope with a complete reinstall ob the suite I can fix this. [22:16] Steffstoff: are you backed up? can you afford a PIM apps data redoing? [22:17] By now no backups [22:17] hmmm [22:17] wait backup from what? The Kmail und Korganizer stuff? [22:18] or from the home folder? [22:18] Steffstoff: yes, kmail and such [22:18] that's not hmm a great idea, but you should periodically anyway [22:18] kmail is no problem, cause it's imap. I'll get the mails again from the server. [22:19] Steffstoff: was going to recommend, to hose the Akonadi database, or the akonadi settings, since PIM apps like knode/kmail/korganizer and such, use the akonadi database server to do a lot of their storing and such, and at times in my case, when something happens to it, then the PIM apps start going awry [22:20] it looks like is the PIM app, but is really the akonadi database, not always, but often enough [22:20] okay I guesst as well a akonadi issue. That's the reason why I'd like to reinstall the whole package [22:21] Steffstoff: why not just delete their "rc" file and let it recreate it maybe? maybe it's just a configuration issue [22:21] What do you think is the best way? [22:21] I deleted all in .config [22:21] Steffstoff: I think installing the whole package may be the last resort to try [22:21] doesn't work :/ [22:23] Steffstoff: well, sudo apt-get install [package] <- will do then [22:24] but what is the package name? [22:24] Steffstoff: each have their own from what I can tell, korganizer is a package itself [22:26] Okay korganizer I reinstall almost 5 times.... doesn't fix the issue. [22:26] Can I reinstall the akonadi server? [22:27] Or another componete which could cause that issue? [22:34] yes [22:35] Steffstoff: akonadi-server and akonadi-backend-mysql [22:35] I have installed intel graphics drivers from intel's 01.org website using their installer sometime back, now after a recent update 3 or 4 days back seem to have a bug, sometimes the screen turns to sold blue color, even not able to use the tty sysreq works. Now I just want to remove the intel driver, how can I do that? [22:36] bprompt: What do you say? Schould I reinstall both? [22:39] Steffstoff: sure, keeping in mind, that we don't really know what may be happening to CalDav, it may just be an updated library version of some other kde package [22:41] reinstall done | issue still there... -.- [22:42] bprompt: reinstall done | issue still there... -.-
