[02:34] <TheSapphire> Hello everyone, I would like to know how to add my Facebook account to the instant messaging applet.
[02:34] <TheSapphire> Anyone online?
[02:35] <DarinMiller> Hi TheSapphire: Which IM account are you trying to configure?
[02:36] <TheSapphire> I'm new to this, I do not see Facebook listed under Taskbar>Instant Messaging>Configure Now>Create
[02:37] <DarinMiller> If it's telepathy, facebook messaging is no longer possible. I have not tried Pidgin for quite a while.  I was under the impression fb closed their IM to outside (non-fb) messengers.... but I am not positive.
[02:38] <DarinMiller> The default messenger on the taskbar is telepathy...
[02:39] <TheSapphire> It's not? It is misleading in the kubuntu feature tour that shows Facebook in it. :/
[02:39] <TheSapphire> Okay, thank you DarinMiller for the info.
[02:40] <DarinMiller> FB used ot have an open protocol and telepathy worked great.  But then fb changed their game.
[06:00] <valorie> Fritigern: I'm running plasma 5.5.5 on this machine, yes
[06:00] <valorie> on the xenial box as well as I recall
[06:03] <fairdinkem> Hi I want to know if I install kubuntu on my 2009 4,1 Mac Pro does it support fan control management or do I have to do some post installation?
[06:51] <valorie> woah, 2009 computer! amazing it runs
[07:25] <rapte> fairdinkem: googling shows the macfanctld package
[07:26] <rapte> rapte: I dunno if that supports your mac pro, but you'll have to install that after installing kubuntu
[07:27] <rapte> installing kubuntu shouldn't take too long, it's only about an hour or so

[10:30] <lordievader> Good morning.
[11:49] <AlterX> Hello there
[11:50] <AlterX> someone can help me with detection of cpu's?
[11:54] <AlterX> no help
[11:58] <lordievader> Detection of cpu's?
[11:58] <AlterX> yes
[11:59] <AlterX> finally I got kubuntu installed with nvidia
[11:59] <AlterX> but I see only one cpu
[11:59] <AlterX> SMP is disabled according to dmsg
[11:59] <AlterX> I tried out everything to get this fixed
[11:59] <lordievader> AlterX: Could you pastebin the output of 'cat /proc/cpuinfo'?
[11:59] <AlterX> but nothing seems to work for me
[11:59] <AlterX> sure
[12:00] <AlterX> processor       : 0 vendor_id       : GenuineIntel cpu family      : 6 model           : 60 model name      : Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4790 CPU @ 3.60GHz stepping        : 3 microcode       : 0x17 cpu MHz         : 3799.828 cache size      : 8192 KB physical id     : 0 siblings        : 1 core id         : 0 cpu cores       : 1 apicid          : 0 initial apicid  : 0 fpu             : yes fpu_exception   : yes cpuid level     : 13 wp    
[12:00] <lordievader> !paste
[12:00] <lordievader> Could you please paste it again via ^
[12:00] <AlterX> I have acpi=off otherwise it doesn't boot
[12:00] <AlterX> ok sorry
[12:01] <AlterX> https://paste.kde.org/pirlghf6e
[12:01] <lordievader> Hmm, yeah it might very well be the acpi option.
[12:02] <lordievader> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingACPI might help you.
[12:02] <AlterX> I can't activate it, I put apm=on
[12:02] <AlterX> since also in the BIOS I have no acpi menu
[12:03] <lordievader> What does it do when you remove the 'acpi=off' option?
[12:04] <AlterX> simple doesn' boot...blackscreen
[12:05] <lordievader> As in the gpu doesn't do anything or does it display a blinking underscore?
[12:05] <AlterX> I on the link you posted I can see few options I did not try
[12:05] <AlterX> nothing
[12:06] <AlterX> just blackscreen
[12:06] <lordievader> AlterX: Try the nomodeset option.
[12:06] <AlterX> it is also true that I am not sure if acpi=off is the trick
[12:06] <AlterX> at the beginning it was the magic
[12:06] <lordievader> Turning all of acpi off is bit blunt, hence me linking to the debugging acpi page ;)
[12:06] <AlterX> then I had problem with nvidia driver that now seems to be fixed
[12:07] <lordievader> You rarely want to turn acpi entirely off.
[12:07] <AlterX> I know it
[12:07] <AlterX> I don't want
[12:07] <AlterX> i have to try to boot without acpi disabled
[12:07] <AlterX> at least once
[12:08] <AlterX> the acpi=ht didn't work for me
[12:09] <AlterX> and here is speaking about SMP code
[12:10] <AlterX> ok thanks
[12:10] <AlterX> I'll give a try now
[12:42] <DMP> hello
[12:43] <DMP> Does anyone know when the next Kubuntu  LTS will be released?
[12:44] <lordievader> !schedule
[12:44] <lordievader> 06-13:44 < ubottu> A schedule of Xenial Xerus (16.04) release milestones can be found here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReleaseSchedule
[12:44] <lordievader> DMP: ^
[12:45] <DMP> thank you. I am using Mint at the moment but am checking options
[12:53] <DMP> I made the change when Windows 8.1 decided to download WIN 10 on my HD without asking
[12:54] <Smurphy> I do fixed that by filtering all Microsoft bullshit ...
[13:36] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[13:43] <Smurphy> Morning.
[13:50] <BluesKaj> 'Morning Smurphy
[14:18] <AlterX> hello there
[14:19] <BluesKaj> hi AlterX
[14:22] <AlterX> so
[14:22] <AlterX> seems I found the cause behind acpi
[14:22] <AlterX> it works with pci=noacpi
[14:22] <AlterX> but recomended
[14:23] <BluesKaj> what works ?
[14:23] <BluesKaj> login?
[14:23] <AlterX> but recommended nvidia driver doesn't let my pc to boot in graphics mode
[14:23] <AlterX> sorry, it was a problem with acpi
[14:23] <AlterX> it was working only if disabled, boot
[14:24] <AlterX> now I found out that using pci=noacpi is unblocking the boot
[14:24] <AlterX> and kubuntu 15.10 starts regularly
[14:24] <BluesKaj> ok, which nvidia gpu?
[14:24] <AlterX> but now I can only use nouveau
[14:24] <AlterX> GTX 970
[14:25] <AlterX> i found a way to install non official kubuntu driver
[14:25] <AlterX> and the latest nvidia one
[14:25] <AlterX> and it works
[14:25] <AlterX> but I prefer to have the official
[14:25] <BluesKaj> is this an Optimus equipped laptop with 2gpus (hybrid)?
[14:25] <AlterX> no
[14:25] <AlterX> asus g20aj
[14:26] <BluesKaj> which driver ?
[14:26] <BluesKaj> is the latest nvidia
[14:27] <AlterX> the one recommended is 352.63
[14:27] <AlterX> !paste
[14:30] <AlterX> http://imgur.com/8eNX4qQ
[14:30] <BluesKaj> AlterX, are you using the 361.28 proprietary driver from the nvidia download site?
[14:30] <AlterX> no
[14:30] <AlterX> nouveau
[14:30] <AlterX> I mean it seams to work well
[14:30] <AlterX> but I think using the original from nvidia would be better
[14:32] <AlterX> chek the link out
[14:32] <BluesKaj> yuou won't notice much difference unless you play games that require OpenGL3.1
[14:32] <AlterX> ok, never say never ;)
[14:32] <AlterX> I mean I know that for standard use is perfect
[14:32] <AlterX> but perfect would be to have all running
[14:33] <BluesKaj> but I'm surprised the 361 driver isn't available in the repos
[14:33] <AlterX> kubuntu itself is recommended to use nvidia :)
[14:33] <BluesKaj> have you upgraded to the latest kernel and packages ?
[14:33] <AlterX> system is up-to-date
[14:34] <BluesKaj> that seems odd, because iI know of users with the 361 driver installed from the repos
[14:35] <AlterX> maybe is not a standard repos
[14:36] <AlterX> but why if I install that, after reboot I have a blackscreen?
[14:36] <AlterX> should I remove xorg.conf after installed it?
[14:37] <AlterX> this is at least what a guy said in the installation of latest nvidia driver
[14:37] <AlterX> at the end of installation and it worked
[14:37] <BluesKaj> most installs don't have an xorg.conf file installed
[14:37] <AlterX> is this nouveau using the gpu or not?
[14:38] <BluesKaj> of course it uses the gpu
[14:38] <AlterX> ok
[14:38] <AlterX> it seems slow in resizing windows
[14:39] <BluesKaj> but you're correct, the 352 driver is the latest nvidia for kubuntu
[14:40] <AlterX> so what you suggest?
[14:41] <BluesKaj> AlterX, what settings are you using in system settings>display& monitor>compositor>rendering backaend
[14:45] <AlterX> XRender
[14:46] <AlterX> should I change it to OpenGL?
[14:46] <BluesKaj> yes
[14:46] <AlterX> 2.x
[14:46] <AlterX> or 3.x
[14:46] <AlterX> ok done
[14:47] <BluesKaj> try 3
[14:47] <AlterX> done
[14:51] <AlterX> it seems to work well
[14:52] <BluesKaj> AlterX, run sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade
[14:55] <AlterX> all done already
[14:58] <AlterX> so I give up with nvidia proprietary for the time being
[14:58] <AlterX> ?
[15:01] <MrClementi> Hi! Am I in the right place to ask for help?
[15:02] <BluesKaj> MrClementi, yes, just ask
[15:02] <MrClementi> Ok. I have trouble with Libreoffice Calc
[15:02] <MrClementi> with a number of documents, but not all
[15:03] <MrClementi> it crashes the whole system: the mouse pointer becomes a square of coloured dots, then the screen becomes blue, than black, then I have to turn off the computer
[15:04] <MrClementi> I've tried to reinstall Libreoffice, but it does not help
[15:04] <MrClementi> I have no idea what's wromg or even where to look to understand what the issue is
[15:04] <MrClementi> the documents in question open just fine with other softwares and on other machines
[15:05] <MrClementi> any idea?
[15:05] <BluesKaj> MrClementi, it would be better to ask in #libreoffice
[15:05] <MrClementi> I'll try, but I'm not sure if it's a problem with libreoffice or with some other thing
[15:07] <BluesKaj> does your printer for other text docs ?
[15:07] <BluesKaj> work
[15:09] <MrClementi> mine? printer works fine
[15:12] <BluesKaj> on existing libreoffice documents ?
[15:12] <MrClementi> yes, no problem
[15:13] <BluesKaj> just opening them is a problem ?
[15:14] <MrClementi> well, some crash immediately as I open them, other times it crashes randomly when I do something
[15:14] <MrClementi> like yesterday it crashed when I wrote a calculation and I pressed return
[15:15] <BluesKaj> always in libreoffice or other apps as well?
[15:15] <MrClementi> no, just Libreoffice Calc
[15:17] <MrClementi> this happened the first time many versions of Libreoffice back, with one specific document. I thought it was corrupted in some way and discarded it, but now it's more and more common
[15:17] <MrClementi> I have no clue
[15:21] <MrClementi> Is there some place where I hope to find some log of such crashes? For all I know now, it could be just anything
[15:25] <DarinMiller> MrClementi which version of libre office? Calc crashing has been an issue in the past, but subsequent releases have fixed some of those issues.
[15:26] <MrClementi> 5.1.1.2
[15:26] <MrClementi> But it also happened before the last few updates
[15:27] <BluesKaj> MrClementi you can check /var/log/syslog or perhaps a log there that pertains to libreoffice, not exactly sure
[15:28] <MrClementi> Thanks, I'll now crash my computer and see... BRB
[15:38] <MrClementi> Nothing :(
[15:44] <DarinMiller> MrClementi If you launch from the command line libreoffice --calc <path to file>,  does lo throw an error before taking down your system?
[15:46] <yeehi> MISSING FUNCTIONALITY: It used to be possible to "open-in-terminal" at an arbitrary location from Dolphin. How can we do that now? (Right click-open in terminal)
[15:46] <MrClementi> I'll try and let you know
[15:47] <lordievader> yeehi: F4 -> ./<whatever you wanted to execute>?
[15:47] <BluesKaj> yeehi, dolphin tools
[15:49] <yeehi> BluesKaj - Thank you very much! That is exactly what I wanted. :)
[15:50] <BluesKaj> yeehi, :-)
[15:51] <yeehi> BluesKaj, is there a way to have similar right-click functionality with youtube-dl?
[15:52] <BluesKaj> yeehi, what kind of functionality would that be?
[15:54] <yeehi> BluesKaj: you are browsing a webpage, see a youtube link you want to download, you right click on the link, and a menu opens, one of the options being to youtube-dl
[15:58] <BluesKaj> yeehi, after right clicking ob the video choose cliget >copy curl for image, then use wget and paste the url , but it basically does the same as youtube-dl , vut it also will download jpegs as well
[15:58] <BluesKaj> but
[15:59] <BluesKaj> you may have to install curl
[15:59] <yeehi> Thank you, BluesKaj. You are most knowledgeable
[16:00] <MrClementi> Here I am. libreoffice -calc /path/to/file.ods returns no error: system crashes too soon
[16:02] <BluesKaj> MrClementi, perhaps sudo apt install --reinstall libreoffice
[16:03] <MrClementi> already tried :(
[16:06] <BluesKaj> MrClementi, have you updated,upgraded dist-upgraded lately?
[16:07] <MrClementi> yes, but it happened before and after, with previous versions of Libreoffice as well
[16:09] <MrClementi> the practical workaround is to copy the document to another file with Calligra, then everything works, but this problem is so random and so bad it bugs me
[16:12] <MrClementi> one moment everything works, then apparently for no reason a simple spreadsheed crashes the whole system so bad I must pull the plug!
[16:15] <BluesKaj> MrClementi, sounds to me like you have an intermittent hardware problem, unless you don't have crashes with other apps
[16:16] <MrClementi> No crashes with other apps, and no crashes with other files. Some spreadsheets, apparently at random, will do this
[16:17] <MrClementi> no other problems with libreoffice either, just spreadsheets are an issue
[16:17] <BluesKaj> still think you should ask in #libreoffice chat
[16:18] <MrClementi> BluesKaj, I have, to no avail
[16:21] <BluesKaj> MrClementi, seems to me then that the spreadsheet app is corrupted somehow, suggest you save all your docs then purge libreoffice, reboot, then reinstall it ...that's all I can think of to do.
[16:24] <MrClementi> I'll try!
[16:45] <Knight2016> Hi
[16:45] <Knight2016> is it possible to connect to a wifi network without sending/receiving data until a vpn connection is made?
[16:46] <Knight2016> Ah. missed the automatically connect to a VPN option
[16:46] <Knight2016> solved
[16:56] <javier_> Hello, can anyone help me with an VPN connection? I am connected to an VPN but the browser seems to not recongnize it
[16:57] <javier_> or to not route the traffic through the vpn, and hence I dont have access to the service that the vpn brings to me
[18:19] <Zren[Quassel]> Anyone know where the source is for the preinstalled panel applets?
[18:37] <Zren> Ah, found it. https://projects.kde.org/projects/kde/workspace/plasma-workspace/repository/revisions/master/show/applets
[19:07] <DarinMiller> After scarlet and clivejo worked to hard to enable PIM for 16.04, I thought I would test it.  I am unable to make it work with goolge 2-step authenication. My googling foo has proved fruiteless.

[19:26] <Guest45346> Hello all, I just posted a question on Kubuntu reddit about installing Plasma 5 desktop, if someone provides an answer, I would be deeply appreciated. Thanks.
[19:26] <Guest45346> https://www.reddit.com/r/Kubuntu/comments/498pmr/how_do_i_install_a_lighter_kde_plasma_5_on_ubuntu/
[20:07] <DarinMiller> Thanks BluesKaj.  But the issue is not repository, its the gmail configuration. Google is denying kmail connection as my current kmail config does not comply with googles 2 step authenticatioin.  I don't know how to enable 2 step with kmail and cannot find any documentation.
[20:10] <Knight2016> DarinMiller:  tried this? https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/185833?hl=en
[20:10] <BluesKaj> DarinMiller, sorry to hear that, but my kmail usage stopped when kde4 was introduced and the devs turned the original kmail client intro an office enterprise style cleint with servers and database, something I don't want or need since I'm a home user
[20:15] <DarinMiller> I mainly use webmail myself, but I thought I would at least check it (kmail) out.
[20:26] <DarinMiller> Knight2016: '
[20:27] <BluesKaj> DarinMiller, I admire your dedication to testing 16.04, but i can't be bothered with kmail.
[20:27] <DarinMiller> Knight2016: Thanks! That's all I needed to do. Google flaged kamill as unsafe and mentioned 2 step authentication in my e-mail alert.  Turns out, I did not have 2 step authentication turned on.  It on now and kmail is working fine.

[20:58] <j09> Hello?
[21:08] <BluesKaj> j09, it's a question that's difficult since most users here don't use mate
[21:09] <BluesKaj> we use the kde/plasma-desktop and related apps
