=== nathan_ is now known as tuxdude143 [00:31] Ok so my surface pro 2 is running kubuntu just fine now after updating the kernel [00:31] Seems that kernel 4.2 was the cause of my wifi crashing the whole system [00:32] Only issue now is kubuntu thinks it can send audio over my mini display port and is using that as the defualt sound output source when I don't want that to be my default sound output source [00:32] Is there any way to change that and remove the hdmi output entirely? [00:33] For reference im using photon gstreamer [00:34] Wait NVM I fixed it === struk|desk|away is now known as struk|desk [01:33] Hey... :) [01:35] Can anyone help me with fixing a problem in Kubuntu 14.04 LTS? [01:36] Hello [01:36] Hey :) [01:36] I search a task manager for Plasma [01:37] mirko_: expose your problem, perhaps I can help you [01:38] Okay flown. Problem is the "Shutdown" Command in the Terminal. When I execute that my Notebook doesnt shut down. It stop on the Kubuntu logo [01:43] floown look here http://www.ubuntufree.com/download-ubuntu-15-04-flavors-kubuntu-lubuntu-ubuntu-mate-and-more/xubuntu-task-manager/ === struk|desk is now known as struk|desk|away [01:44] mirko_: sorry, I wanted to say : (for add several work tasks, to create a bill for my clients) [01:44] Ahhh okay. === struk|desk|away is now known as struk|desk [01:45] for example, calculate the time I have pass to create a illustration in Gimp [01:45] floown maybe this: http://nitrotasks.com/# [01:46] mirko_: cool, thx [01:47] I`m glad if this helps :) [01:49] Already found something for my problem as well. :) [01:54] mirko_: to shutdown a PC, you must use sudo shutdown now [01:54] sudo reboot now to reboot [01:55] Yeah I know floown. The thing happened as I configured the shutdown for a specific time. Hours after I got up I found the Laptop with that Logo, still running.

I'm just looking for a good one for linux lol [04:45] !info choqok [04:45] choqok (source: choqok): KDE micro-blogging client. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.5-2ubuntu2 (wily), package size 1523 kB, installed size 6396 kB [04:46] I've not tried it, but have heard good things [04:46] I've had a little look at that. Should probably look at it again I guess lol [05:00] first day of using kubuntu! [05:01] nice, tater [05:01] enjoying yourself? [05:01] just moved from ubuntu due to the speed issues, valorie [05:02] so far working super fast [05:03] i am curious if kubuntu has the spyware that ubuntu is known for? [05:03] no spyware [05:03] no scopes [05:04] ok great [05:08] ubuntu has spyware? [05:09] well, some people characterized the shopping scope that way [05:09] dunno, I never liked or used Unity [05:09] I like gnome people, but not the desktop [05:10] just watched a youtube video about stallman talking about it [05:10] while ubuntu does make money from amazon for it; i am not sure if i like canoncial selling my searching info to amazon [05:11] and other companies [05:12] of course it can be turned off [05:12] or not used [05:13] yeah with a simple command line for sure [05:13] stallman failed to mention that :) [05:13] I see [05:14] Well I'm quite happy with Kubuntu [05:15] well, stallman is rather generally unhappy with Ubuntu IMO [05:16] i sure do like the GUI eye candy [05:17] Is there a mouse setting that causes a "halo" around the pointer when over light backgrounds? [05:17] I'm trying to figure out if I turned on somethign weird or if I have a really weird monitor problem. [05:17] tater: me too [05:17] hmmm [05:17] I've never heard of that, Krampus [05:18] KDE plasma 5 just looks amazing [05:18] valorie: it's a skylake NUC. Maybe just a not quite supported chipset. I'm in the process of jumping to xenial. [05:20] Krampus: I'm running xenial now, and am loving it [05:22] ah xenial is the beta? [05:23] for 16 [05:23] how is it different from 15 valorie? [05:24] yes [05:24] newer plasma [05:25] although we don't have 5.6 yet [05:25] that will have to wait for backport, as it was released too late, while xenial was frozen [05:27] is there a way to see what version of kubuntu i am running on my machine? [05:28] i tried uname - r but it just says 3.190-56 generic [05:29] valorie: my sound doesn't want to work at the moment either. Hopefully this'll fix that as well. [05:30] sound is a complicated problem, sometimes [05:30] KDE 5.5 has been backported to 15.10 [05:30] I'm running 5.5 on 15.10 [05:30] right [05:30] But 5.6 or 5.6.1 aren't backported to 15.10 [05:31] no [05:31] we were getting the LTS finished [05:31] 15.10 is only supported for about 3 more months [05:31] I doubt backports will be done [05:32] we don't have the hours necessary to do everything needful right now [05:37] how many people code for kubuntu? [05:38] Yeah, I'm planning on updating to 16.04 basically the day it comes out as I need the LTS [05:40] i am looking at the screenshot for kubuntu it looks like this - http://distrowatch.com/images/cgfjoewdlbc/kubuntu.png - is this a special theme? i ask because my default theme is not matching this? [05:42] that is the standard desktop for 15.10, yes [05:42] Yeah [05:42] KDE 5 looks like that as a standard [05:42] Quite different to KDE 4 [05:43] Plasma 5, yes [05:43] Yeah plasma 5 [05:43] I keep calling it kde 5 lol [05:44] kde is our community [05:53] how can i tell what version of kde i have? [05:53] Check the about menu [05:53] Shift F2 [05:53] Type about [05:53] KDE plasma version [05:54] kubuntu 14.04 kdelibs 4.13.3 [05:54] or plasmashell --version [05:54] so i am running old version of kde? [05:54] yes, you have the LTS [05:54] you'll be able to upgrade to the new LTS in a few months [05:55] current regular version is 15.10 now [05:55] Yeah, LTS is on plasma 4 [05:55] 16.04 comes out later this month [05:55] !release [05:55] Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 9 months (non-LTS) or 5 years (LTS). More info at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases & http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases [05:56] oh ok so lts is using old version of kde [05:56] but lts catches up to it this month [05:57] right [05:57] lts is all about stability [05:57] ah ok cool [05:57] that UX is very sexy looking [05:58] I love it [05:59] to get the plasma 5 / kde 5 would i have to burn a new iso or can i upgrade while inside my lts version? [06:00] upgrade will be available at the 16.04.1 release [06:01] a couple of months after the main release [06:01] but of course you can always get a current ISO [06:03] ok makes sense. if i wanted to write a widget for kde would i need to write it in python? [06:03] I'm guessing I'll be able to update straight from 15.10 to 16.04? [06:04] yes, upgrade works well [06:04] Awesome [06:04] I upgraded this laptop to the beta, no issues [06:08] Is there anywhere I can download some plasma 5 login screens?

[07:20] alt+space and type driver [07:34] Good mroning. [09:24] Clementine and kubuntu just go so well together [10:11] Well, it being a fork of Amarok, that is sort of to be expected ;) [12:02] Hiyas all [12:09] Hiyas mr. Blues. [12:10] 16.04 seems the best experience since 14.10 for me. [12:13] hi jonathan_zz , and it's getting better all the time [12:13] good, really fed up with 15:10. 21st April can't come fast enough [12:14] I find 15.10 way more buggy than 15.04 [12:15] 15.10 is hopeless in my experience [12:15] I just skipped the entire 15 thing. [12:16] Went to OpenSUSE in between lol. [12:16] they still ran kde 4 in 13.2. [12:16] then their background got me pulling my hair. [12:17] didn't know how to get rid of it, it was everywhere. [12:17] running antergos on my laptop. Got to say plasma 5.6.1 is beautiful [12:17] it was in the boot loader, initird, desktop, screensaver, login-prompt, everywhere. [12:17] yeah I went with fedors 23 for a short time , but it's media options are very restricted [12:17] fedora even [12:17] that green scale weird gekko background.

I think something may have gone misconfigured in the update, but how can I find out what it was? [12:44] I'm running Kubuntu 15.10 [12:44] The only audio output showing in KMix is "Fake output" [12:46] Actually, it's "Dummy output" (I think. In reality, it's "Saída fictícia", since my system is pt_br, so I'm not sure what's the original string in english for that) [12:46] hmm this was known, there was sme workaroudn [12:46] BluesKaj: ^ do you remember this one ? [12:48] r_rios, what does aplay -l show? need to know your audio chip [12:49] some fix was to add user to audio group i think [12:50] BluesKaj: https://gist.github.com/romariorios/e90b9fba0e78de71e4db1310a743ec48 [12:50] I found this: https://ubuntugenius.wordpress.com/2013/11/29/ubuntu-13-10-missing-audio-fix-no-sound-only-device-is-dummy-output/ [12:50] Could it help? [12:50] I did what the article said and I'm restarting now [12:56] No good. It didn't work [12:57] BluesKaj: Here's how my audio cards show up: http://wstaw.org/m/2016/04/03/ransom1.jpeg [12:57] yea soee, r_rios, this the command to add yourself to the audio group, sudo adduser your_user_name audio [13:00] r_rios, also make sure in alsamixer that automute is disabled [13:01] r_rios, then for safety's sake run, sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel, then reboot [13:03] Okay, rebooting [13:09] BluesKaj: It worked :D [13:09] Thanks [13:11] r_rios, you're welcome, thank soee_ for the add user suggestion as well, these are known peoblems [13:11] problems even [14:23] hey i made a SONG you can listen to it on Soundclound.

[15:11] yes. It will update to the version of KDE present in the repositories of the Kubuntu version you are upgrading to [15:12] rodolfojcj: what the version I am upgrading from has a kde version greater than that is already in the repos in kubuntu? [15:12] *what if === shark is now known as Guest48557 [15:13] it would interesting to know how apt or dpkg commands deal with that situation [15:14] does the current Kubuntu version has some kind of "backport" repositories enabled?

Now I upgrade to kubuntu 16.04 which doesn't support kde 5.6 [15:23] are you using this http://neon.kde.org/ ? [15:25] I'm also using Kubuntu 15.10 (no neon) and I see it uses Kde Frameworks 5.15.0 [15:25] and I see the next Kubuntu 16.04 will use version 5.18.0 [15:26] and it seems to me both are newer than version 5.6.0 [15:27] that's that I interpret after seeing http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=wily&searchon=names&keywords=kded5 and http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=kded5&searchon=names&suite=xenial§ion=all [15:36] rodolfojcj: I didn't understand how is 5.18 newer than 5.6 [15:37] Yes I asking with respect to kde neon. :) === struk|desk is now known as struk|desk|away === CthUlhUzzz is now known as linklesspen === linklesspen is now known as CthUlhUzzz [15:47] try to update the local metadata of the repositories in your computer.

I have a strange problem with the login on Kubuntu 15.10. My laptop turned off due to a discharged battery in standby mode. When I turned it on appeared problems. When a window appears enter password there are two ways that can happen. If I enter the password within a few seconds of the window appearing I get to the tty console with a request to enter a username and password. If I don't put in a password, then for a split seco [19:03] If I don't put in a password, then for a split second appears on the console (I don't have time to read anything), and then again with the login box. Now if I enter my password, I successfully log in, but I cannot turn on/off network interfaces and switching between tty (if you press ctrl + alt + f1..f7, nothing happens). [19:03] If now I will terminate the session KDE and login again, network interfaces and tty work well, but if I close my laptop's and open it again, the password dialog will not be displayed. [19:04] What could be the problem and where to look? Thanks in advance! [20:21] whats up. does anyone have any alternatives to jing for kubuntu - gist of jing is it records videos of your desktop and uploads it to cloud + provides shareable url for free [20:22] (and loving that kubuntu comes with K torrent out of the box) [20:27] tater: OBS can record your desktop, your games, but can also stream to Twitch and some other streaming services. https://obsproject.com/download#linux [20:35] thanks Fritigern i will check it out now [20:36] i am getting a notification that a system update is available, and i get the notification on the bottom panel. i am used to clicking that message to open up the application to run the update - is that not possible in kubuntu? [20:52] tater, just run , sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade in the konsole/terminal [20:55] i just swapped over from an ATI card to GTX 960 using nvidia-352-updates. when i try to use a lower resolution than 1920x1080, the screen does not stretch/scale. i am not seeing any option for this in the nvidia software and only finding related stuff on this issue from years ago (google). am i crazy, doing something wrong, or just not supported? [20:59] Morning al [20:59] *all [20:59] BluesKaj - a yeah duh thanks for reminding me [21:00] seems in firefox i have selected 'remember to open file using XX every time i download a file of that type' and it never remembers. is that a bug with firefox itself [21:00] ? [21:01] Welp today is going to be a bit of a field test for me [21:01] I'm going to be testing kubuntu out in the field (aka my school) to see how long my surface pro 2's battery lasts while using it. [21:02] anyone know if it's possible to assign kubuntu's default mail app to a chromium-browser --app? [21:02] i just tried assigning it to the .desktop file, and that didn't work. [21:03] tux|dude interesting. it's lasting about 2 hours on my dell laptop [21:03] Well I had been using kubuntu for around 3 hours yesterday at my usual workload and the battery was at around 60 percent after [21:03] So I'll see how it lasts in the field today [21:05] is that a tablet or a laptop? [21:05] Tablet laptop hybrid [21:05] The surface pro 2 is a tablet sized computer with high end laptop specs [21:06] hrm… this shouldn't be happening. at all. https://gist.github.com/igalic/da6f42da422aa673dda121181598887b [21:07] ah i5 core that should hum [21:07] anyone around that uses nvidia 9xx gpu? [21:10] i love how kubuntu shows the national event name for each day in the time window from bottom panel. does that stay in the upcoming lts?
