markchow can I fix the "The repository is insufficiently signed by key" problem?02:21
Unit193markc: If it's a PPA, it's just a warning not an error.02:23
markcUnit193: I've read a few buf reports about but no where have I seen a clear guide on how to get the right signed keys02:25
Unit193markc: Can you pastebin it?02:25
markcUnit193: right, I just commented out all my ppa's and it looks like the google-talk plugin was the main culprit, now my packages have updated02:28
Unit193Ah yeah that repo... That's one that is actually erroring out.  Others should just be warnings, though check the messages to be sure.02:29
Unit193https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/Apt/Sha1Removal see here.02:29
markcUnit193: thanks for the link, yes, the google-talk plugin was the show stopper02:31
Unit193markc: FWIW, it'll exit with err1, but everything else will actually update.02:32
Unit193And, good you got it solved!  That repo should be fixed soon™02:32

ake_Hey. Anyone know how to fix fonts on gtk apps on kubuntu 15.10? I use font scaling 120dpi, oxygen-sans sans-book. But fonts in gtk apps are bold or wrong font?11:57
ake_Eclipse using gtk2 reports the correct system font but renders something else. When overriding manually with the correct font it looks alright11:58
ake_.fonts.conf looks alright with same hinting11:59
ake_It might be using the Sans font12:01
ake_solved it! remove the Sans-Book part in the two places in in .gtkrc-2.012:08

BluesKajHowdy folks14:37
darinmillermarkslaw: do you know how or if your drive was partitioned?14:37
markslawhow do i find out? it's been a while since I installed it14:37
markslawthe issue is that when I try to upgrade certain packages, I get an error message.14:38
markslawWhen I look in Muon Package manager, I find that certain files, like linux-image-generic are "broken"14:39
darinmillerLaunch KDE partition manager and select the drive where Kubuntu is installed.14:39
markslawThis is the only indication I have that something is amiss.14:39
markslawIs this why I can't upgrade packages?14:39
markslawHow can I correct this?14:40
BluesKajmarkslaw, any ppas in your sources?14:40
markslawwhat's a ppa?14:41
BluesKaj!ppa14:41
ubottuA Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA? See https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas - WARNING: PPAs are unsupported third-party packages, and you use them at your own risk. See also !addppa and !ppa-purge14:41
BluesKajprobly not if you have to ask14:41
markslawno. no ppas14:41
BluesKajmarkslaw, also we have to ask if you've updated and upgraded your packages in the package manager?14:44
darinmillermarkslaw: did you try: sudo apt-get -f install14:44
markslawwhat does -f install do?14:45
BluesKajfixes14:45
darinmillermarkslaw it attempt to fix broken packages14:45
markslawjust tried it. it returned a bunch of error messages14:46
markslawpart of one of the error messages was "failed to write (No space left on device) and this is a 2 TB drive with better than 75% free space!14:48
darinmilleroh!14:49
darinmillermarkslaw run this: sudo apt-get autoremove14:49
darinmillermarkslaw you may need to run it mulitple times.  Keep running it until nothing is removed.14:50
darinmillermarkslaw reboot then run: sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade14:50
darinmillermarkslaw I assume you have a boot partition that filled up (happens after several kernel updates)14:51
darinmillermarkslaw run df -l14:51
darinmillerThis will list your patitions and the space remaining.14:52
markslawso right. /def/sda1 mounted on /boot is full. what do i do now?14:53
markslawmake that dev/sda114:54
darinmillermarkslaw just run sudo apt-get autoremove14:56
markslawjust did it. no dice. same error messages. sounds like brute force is required.14:58
markslawcan i upload a screen shot here?14:58
darinmillermarkslaw from the command line, cd into /boot15:01
markslawokay. i'm there15:01
BluesKajmaybe it's a UEFI boot problem15:03

=== kubuntu is now known as Guest53295
markslawokay. i found a bunch of linux-image files. now what?15:20
darinmillermarkslaw review this page: http://askubuntu.com/questions/2793/how-do-i-remove-old-kernel-versions-to-clean-up-the-boot-menu15:21
darinmillermarkslaw scroll down to the sectoin where it mentions sudo apt-get purge linux-image-x.x.x.x-generic15:21
darinmillermarkslaw you will need to run the at-get purge command on an older versoin of your kernel.  Then, the auto-remove command should  work.15:26
darinmillermarkslaw I just discovered that autoremove fails when updates are queued but drive is out of space.  The purge command will create the space but you will need to complete the updates before proceeding with the autoremove.  I recommend manually purging at least 2 of the older kernel manaully.15:31
jubo2fi.archive.ubuntu.com down?15:34
jubo2'sudo apt update' hangs on it15:34
jubo2and 'sudo apt upgrade' says that some vital core packages "cannot be verified"15:35
jubo2recommends pressin "n"15:35
jubo2I totally don't want a sploited udev or any other stuff15:35
markslaw_i'm back15:35
markslaw_not a lot of help with that symantec move. it didn't remove some stuff.15:36
=== Steffstoff is now known as Guest20839

markslawokay, i'm back. problem sloved16:19
markslawturns out that the solution was to mark the broken packages for removal in Muon Package Manager and apply. After that, everything normalized.16:21
DarinMillermarkslaw Good to hear.16:22
DarinMillermarkslaw how about the space in your boot partition (df -l)16:22
markslawlet me check16:25
markslawhow do i do that again?16:26
markslawnever mind. df reports 96% use of /boot16:28
DarinMillernow try the sudo apt-get autoremove16:30
markslawhow can i make more space in that partition?16:30
DarinMillerYou can increase the partition size by booting to USB and moving/resizing partitions but it it very slow (hours if you don't have SSD drives).16:31
markslawi just ran apt-get autoremove but no additional space was freed up.16:32
markslawam i going to have to go through this again in june when kubuntu is upgraded?16:33
DarinMillerThe upgrade will flush this directory, but I may need some room to write before it flushes.  Use Moun to manually select older versions of the kernel for removal.16:34
DarinMillerensure not to remove the current kernel version. what is your current version of the keneral ( uname -a )16:36
markslaw4.2.0-21-generic16:37
geniiIf you have some other larger partition, you can copy the /boot contents there and bind mount. I sometimes have to this with /var/cache/apt/archives because the /var on my SSD sometimes runs out of room16:40
geniiIt works to at least get stuff installed/deinstalled until you resize stuff16:40
markslawam i safe deleting linux-image 4.2.0-19-generic and others beside the current 4.2.0-21 ?16:41
DarinMillermarkslaw yes, deleting all but the current kernel is safe16:41
DarinMillerlist all installed kernel: dpkg --list | grep linux-image | awk '{print $2}'16:41
DarinMillerremove one at time via command line: sudo apt-get purge linux-image-x.x.x-xx-generic16:42
DarinMillerreplace the x.x.x-xx with an older kenel version.16:43
=== mike_ is now known as Guest30965
markslawhere goes...16:46
markslawgreat! that brought the partition down to 36% usage16:46
DarinMillerexcellent!16:47
DarinMillerhow many kernels are left: dpkg --list | grep linux-image | awk '{print $2}'16:47
markslawi'm still showing previous kernel versions, 3.19.0-15 and so on. i'm guessing I can remove these as well?16:48
DarinMillermy boot partition show 3% used but my boot partition is 300mb16:48
DarinMilleryes, continue removing the old ones16:49
DarinMillerwhen done, update grub: sudo update-grub216:49
markslawwhy update grub?16:51
geniiAfter all the old kernels are removed, if there is still other kernel-related packages like headers, linux-image-extra, and so on, it should prompt you to run apt with autoremove16:57

markslawokay, i'm back. just rebooted. tell me again, why did i update grub?17:02
DarinMillerDo you dual boot or does the grub menu show up when you reboot?17:02
DarinMillerIf not, no need to worry about updating grub.  Grub retains a list of installed kernel and allows you to select older kernels for booting.  Updating grub ensure you do not try to reboot to kernel that no longer exist on your PC.17:04
markslawi don't dual boot. why in the world would i want something like windoze on my computer? I've just successfully weaned my wife off of it.17:06
DarinMiller:) Dual or multi booting is not just window/linux installs. You can install other version of Linux and manage via grub :)17:07
markslawi see the sense, though. since i had other, older kernels on the machine, it just makes sense to avoid booting to them. thanks a bunch.17:07
DarinMillerYou're welcome.17:07

DarinMiller /msg NickServ VERIFY REGISTER DarinMiller_ nzgfxszcnnzw20:33
Unit193DarinMiller: Did you know you can just use /msg nickserv group ?20:35
DarinMillerNo, I am fairly new to IRC.  what does the grouping function do?20:36
Unit193It just groups the nick to your current account rather than creating a whole new account.  It certainly has advantages.20:37
DarinMiller_I must replace my dang modem, it keeps dropping connection which plays havoc with the IRC identity stuff.20:42
DarinMiller_Unit193 what is the purpose of the group option?  I see it listed here, http://www.ircbeginner.com/ircinfo/m-commands.html but I am not sure why it would be useful.20:50
Unit193DarinMiller_: As opposed to registering a new nick, it's helpful for having a fallback nick in case you reconnect before your former connection times out.  In your case, your automatic identification is tied to the nick you're currently using, if you group that you'll still be identified.20:53
DarinMiller_If I configure Konversation with multiple nicknames, does it perform the group command upon connection? Or is that a manual command required every time I log in?20:58
Unit193DarinMiller: That's a one time thing, just like registration.21:01
DarinMillerOK, thx21:01
