I'm having an issue with Skype. Calls are not connecting - neither when I make them, nor when someone calls me. In the latter case, I don't get a call. Running Kubuntu 15.10, Skype 4.3 from the Ubuntu partners repository. Would anyone know how to troubleshoot this? [09:42] hi mo34. I think I read something about Microsoft breaking compatability with Windows clients recently... let me see if i can find the article [09:43] in the mean time, have you tried using the call test to see if everything is set up correctly? [09:43] chr1s: yup, even the call to echo test doesn't go through [09:44] chr1s: but, the webcam and speaker tests in the options seem to be fine [09:45] mo34: this is it http://mspoweruser.com/skype-for-linux-is-broken-and-users-arent-happy/ [09:45] I don't use skype so I'm only basing on what I read [09:46] it seems since February Skype on Linux doesn't work anymore [09:47] chr1s: Thanks, but ouch :( [09:47] yep, sorry for the bad news [09:47] hopefully it will get resolved if enough people complain [09:48] chr1s: I have a Skype interview tomorrow, and I don't know if I'm in a position to ask them to use another service :/ [09:48] chr1s: I tried running it on wine, it's a no go, somehow... Maybe I should try to get hold of an old version and try it on wine, or I'll try cheating the web version? [09:49] double ouch but I would think that any reasonable comany would be understanding and arrange some other way to do the interview [09:49] i have no idea how well it may have worked on wine in the past [09:50] hope you can find a solution [09:55] also from the article it seems like it should work if the client on the other end is an old version? In the worst case maybe they could downgrade for the call [09:56] this kind of thing is why i try to avoid proprietary solutions as much as possible [09:59] chr1s: I completely agree [10:01] chr1s: Thanks for your help mate [10:01] mo34: no worries, good luck for your interview [10:01] chr1s: I'll see what I can do... Worst case, borrow a friend's laptop or tab [10:01] chr1s: peace. [10:27] Fairly certain if all the Linux users complained for a year Microsoft would just get fat off drinking their tears. For The Majority of Linux users which is a minority of the market this is probably going to go fully unnoticed [10:40] Daskreech: unfortunately I would tend to agree with you in the short term however taking the longer view as more and more people run into issues on various platforms (OS X, Android, etc.) perhaps it will stop enough people using it that it starts to impact Microsoft enough to have to care [10:40] but i wouldn't hold me breath either...

[13:21] Drag and drop [13:22] literally as simple as that? [13:23] If you setup with IMAP accounts in the same client, it's that easy. I've done it with Thunderbird. I don't know how much bandwidth it uses. [13:24] im using thunderbird now [13:24] just dragging and dropping them [13:24] will see how it goes [13:24] Thanks [13:29] I suggest trying with a few messages and checking that it is working. [13:30] And then doing them in batches / folders, rather than trying to 1000's at a time. [13:31] lol, too late. :) [13:31] I copied my inbox and have done folder at a time [13:31] thanks for that, it worked prefectly [13:32] but instead of copying the emails, its completely moved them [13:33] Oh, I think it will do that with a drag and drop. MIgrate sort of implies that :) [13:33] I don't know if there is a way to do it as a copy. [13:34] Glad it worked. [13:34] thats ok. Not like you are going to use the old email host like you said, thats why yu are moving it over :) [13:35] I asked my hosting providers and they were clueless [13:35] glad I could do it and it was sooo simple! :) === jose__ is now known as Nick-19782 [15:22] Hello, I have a problem with firefox on freshly installed kubuntu 15.04.

Do someone know a good media player to read folder content through samba? (I'm actually using vlc but it's not really efficient) [19:55] why do you need a media player to read folder content, just readit directly, pcouaillier === Steffstoff is now known as Guest4646 === Steffstoff_ is now known as Steffstoff [19:58] Yea... but I dislike to open 20 folder instead of 1... [20:00] On windows and mac i Take me 1 sec to do it.. on linux... Easier to start a windows VM and lunch vlc... [20:00] how does the media player make that distinction, pcouaillier? === Pici is now known as Guest19584 [20:04] I don't know...
