[00:17] <Kingsmere> Banana ?
[00:17] <Kingsmere> Hello
[01:07] <Smurphy> banana ...
[01:27] <tux|dude> Man clementine and kubuntu just go together so well
[01:32] <Smurphy> I got used in using amarok by now ...
[01:32] <Smurphy> Wonder when the next plasma will be available for kubuntu :) Looks neat :)
[01:33] <tux|dude> I've given amarok a look but ehhhh.....
[01:35] <Smurphy> It has its advantages, once you get used to the special usage.
[01:36] <tux|dude> It's a little... mental
[01:36] <tux|dude> I mean clementine is based off amarok 1.4 actually
[01:37] <Smurphy> I know. they have however rewritten the internal engine from scratch.
[01:37] <moody_> hey yall
[01:37] <Smurphy> yo
[01:38] <moody_> was hoping to get some help. i just installed kde 15.10 on my desktop and the propietary bcm4352 driver and i've been getting random desktop freezes after about 10 minutes
[01:38] <moody_> i can't get to the tty either
[01:38] <moody_> via ctrl alt f1
[01:38] <moody_> so i have to restart my pc every time
[01:38] <moody_> i've got a gtx 680 but didn't install nvidia drivers and i'm wondering if that's the issue
[01:40] <Smurphy> We'd need more info on that. You tried checking the kernel ring buffer -> check sysreq interaction in google.
[01:41] <moody_> no i haven't i'm a linux novice so i don't know what the kernel ring buffer
[01:41] <Smurphy> I got a very old copy of a text-base version of this -> http://stargate.solsys.org/bin.php?bin=get&bin_id=279
[01:41] <moody_> is
[01:41] <Smurphy> That's where the linux kernel writes down all errors.
[01:41] <Smurphy> usually - if the system works and suddenly freezes hard, memory gets overwritten.
[01:42] <Smurphy> If it was an IRQ error, it would release the IRQ after a while - reason I rather think it is memory or a driver behaving bad.
[01:42] <moody_> interestingly, i can move my mouse during these freezes
[01:42] <moody_> so they're not hard freezes
[01:42] <moody_> i just can't inetract with the desktop or get to the tty
[01:42] <moody_> also fwiw i can get to the tty before freeze with ctrl alt f1-6
[01:43] <Smurphy> Hmmm.
[01:43] <Smurphy> bcm is a network-card driver, right > so the graphic-card driver should not be the issue here.
[01:43] <moody_> right, but i think the freeze happened even before i installed the network card driver
[01:43] <Smurphy> next time you boot your system, before it crashes, open konsole or go to the console (ctrl-alt-f1) and type in: dmesg
[01:44] <moody_> so far that's all i've done on the fresh install
[01:44] <Smurphy> it will dump you the kernel-ring buffer to the screen.
[01:44] <moody_> i'm actually on the pc right now
[01:44] <moody_> hoping i don't get disconnected
[01:44] <moody_> and i ran dmesg-any idea what i should look for?
[01:45] <Smurphy> Paste it somewhere -> pastebin or so.
[01:45] <Smurphy> In fact, we're looking for kernel oops messages etc.
[01:45] <Smurphy> Did you tell the system to update all packages during install ?
[01:46] <moody_> http://pastebin.com/LWYSz1ia
[01:46] <moody_> no, i tried to update after the install but it crashed while downloading
[01:46] <moody_> i should do that now
[01:47] <Smurphy> No errors I can see.
[01:48] <moody__> so this last crash came with graphical artifacts too
[01:49] <moody__> like a bucket of paint was spilled over the windows
[01:49] <moody__> i'm thinking i might try the proprietary nvidia driver and see if that fixes it
[01:49] <Smurphy> could be the nouveau drivers then. Ubuntu does not have the latest. install the Nvidia provided drivers.
[01:49] <Smurphy> Could make it better.
[01:49] <Smurphy> yes
[01:50] <moody__> wish there was a good way to see my gput emps
[01:51] <Smurphy> gput emps ?
[01:51] <Smurphy> gpu temps?
[01:51] <Smurphy> The nvidia tools have something for that.
[01:51] <Smurphy> Well, the proprietary nvidia drivers.
[01:51] <Smurphy> But I have not used them in a very long time -> mostly Intel GPU's now.
[02:01] <moody_> soo everything is much snappier after i installed the proprietary driver
[02:03] <Smurphy> faster ? it should.
[02:04] <Smurphy> Check for the nvidia panel (dunno how it's called anymore).
[02:04] <Smurphy> Click on the start-button, and start typing: nvidia
[02:04] <Smurphy> it will show you everything that has nvidia. The control-panel from nvidia should show.

[09:05] <General_Martok> Hi, can somebody tell me how I can set the window position permanently? Thunderbird ever opens in a small window
[09:36] <hateball> General_Martok: You can create window rules, rightclick the title
[09:36] <soee> General_Martok: hi
[09:37] <soee> ah hateball was first :)
[09:37] <hateball> General_Martok: That is, the titlebar of Thunderbird. Then you can set advanced rules for placements or whatever you desire
[09:38] <soee> right click on title bar and pick: More Action -> Additional Applicaton Settings -> Size & Placement [tab]
[09:41] <General_Martok> Thank you! It works. It was so easy, but I didn't see :-)
[10:19] <yossarianuk> hi - what version of plasma will 16.04 be using ? the beta still have 5.5.4 I belive
[11:05] <soee> yossarianuk: shoudl be 5.5.5
[11:05] <soee> than newer through backports
[11:53] <BluesKaj> Howdy folks
[11:53] <mirko_> Hey guys. I have a problem with login screen in Kubuntu 14.04. When I select an own image there, I just get a white background...
[11:57] <BluesKaj> mirko_, what's the file extension of the image?
[11:58] <mirko_> BluesKaj: It`s a .jpg... Don`t tell me it`s that easy and I just need it into another extension... :D
[11:59] <BluesKaj> no it's not that easy , that's the correct file type alright
[12:00] <mirko_> That`s weird then. :( I tried it with a few pictures now, and always the same result. Logging out - white Background. Rebooting - white Background. After that I checked if the pic is still saved in the settings - yes, it is...
[12:01] <mirko_> I checked it just with the User Bar though. Maybe it`s different in Classic...
[12:02] <BluesKaj> classic?
[12:02] <BluesKaj> oh the kmenu
[12:02] <mirko_> Yes. The Screen that appears after booting where it asks for your password. :)
[12:03] <BluesKaj> login screen
[12:04] <mirko_> Exactly. :) Maybe it`ll work with a .png-extension? Or is it impossible?
[12:05] <BluesKaj> you don't have the pics wrapped in a compressed file using ark or some such ?
[12:06] <mirko_> BluesKaj: Nope. Got a large, uncompressed folder of Wallpapers in my personal folder.
[12:06] <BluesKaj> ok
[12:07] <mirko_> I will check it just for fun with an png-Image. Or do you have something specific in mind that could fix it? :)
[12:08] <BluesKaj> mirko_, did the background change setting ask for your password ?
[12:09] <mirko_> BluesKaj: Yes. Password is needed to save the settings there.
[12:10] <BluesKaj> no I don't have a particular fix in mind because my experience with login screen backaground choice has always worked iirc
[12:12] <hateball> mirko_: do you have an encrypted home folder?
[12:12] <hateball> the user that runs the login manager needs to be able to read the file from whatever path you defined
[12:12] <mirko_> hateball: Yes. I encrypted my folder on the installation process.
[12:13] <hateball> That'll be it then
[12:14] <mirko_> hateball: Ahhh. Yeah, makes sense. When it`s encrypted before decrypting it with the personal password it can`t work.
[12:17] <mirko_> Let me check that. I`ll be right back... :)
[12:22] <hateball> mirko_: yeah, so place the images somewhere unencrypted :)
[12:22] <wieczoj> #linux
[12:23] <mirko_> Hmmm... Weird. I tried a wallpaper of my external HDD now there that isn`t encrypted, logged out, still same result, white background...
[12:24] <hateball> mirko_: Have you mounted the drive in /etc/fstab ? Otherwise that wont be mounted until you're logged in
[12:24] <hateball> Which would produce the same result
[12:25] <mirko_> hateball: I don`t think so... Can you name me an unencrypted location on my System where I can place the wallpaper to retest?
[12:25] <hateball> mirko_: Well I don't know how your system is setup, but if you only encrypted ~/, then everywhere else would be unenecrypted
[12:26] <hateball> So you could "mkdir -p /opt/wallpapers" and copy an image there for instance
[12:26] <mirko_> hateball: Okay, let me try that...
[12:31] <mirko_> Okay, retesting now. Brb. :)
[12:32] <mirko_> hateball: Bingo, that fixed it.
[12:38] <mirko_> hateball: Thank you very much for your help. This support here is awesome! :)
[12:39] <BluesKaj> encryption of regular non critical files is obviously a pita :-)
[12:41] <mirko_> BluesKaj: Normally you`re right. I got an encrypted container on my external HDD where I save all my "critical" stuff.
[12:45] <yossarianuk> soee
[12:45] <yossarianuk> soee: thanks
[15:52] <timetrex> werd up
[15:52] <timetrex> derp
[15:52] <catbadger> better
[16:21] <mirko_> Can someone help me? Kubuntu is trolling me with Update Popups. When I open Muon and searching for Updates there is nothing. Neither with terminal-commands. It`s getting really annoying cause it pops up all few minutes... -.-
[16:43] <catbadger> what terminal commands did you try?
[16:46] <mirko_> catbadger: sudo apt-get update / sudo apt-get upgrade / sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[16:48] <catbadger> that should do it.
[16:49] <catbadger> To stop the pop-up run update-manager
[16:49] <catbadger> Then in settings, set Update automaticly to 'Never' and Notify of new version to 'Never'
[16:50] <catbadger> well i feel like he was ungrateful
[16:50] <catbadger> .j edm
[16:50] <catbadger> oops
[17:12] <JunkHunk> hello at startup lately my kubuntu does this: http://www.pasteall.org/pic/show.php?id=101647 is there a way to fix it?
[17:18] <BluesKaj> JunkHunk, could be a graphics problem, got the recommended gpu driver installed ?
[17:19] <JunkHunk> 358.16 for Geforce GTX 750 Ti
[17:20] <Bob2016> that does't look like a video driver problem at all
[17:24] <BluesKaj> JunkHunk, what about your OpenGL /GLX settings
[17:25] <JunkHunk> tell me the command
[17:25] <JunkHunk> I ll post the output
[17:26] <BluesKaj> there's no command
[17:26] <BluesKaj> look in system settings>display and monitor>compositor
[17:35] <JunkHunk> I dont see compositor
[17:36] <JunkHunk> screen config and screen saver
[17:36] <JunkHunk> thats all under display and monitor
[17:38] <JunkHunk> oh
[17:38] <JunkHunk> now I remember I switched to lightdm
[17:38] <JunkHunk> in order to get free login at startup
[17:38] <JunkHunk> could be it?
[17:39] <JunkHunk> nvm it is not an unbearable problem
[17:55] <VlanZ> heyyy peoples
[19:04] <cstelz> Hey everybody!
[19:41] <catbadger> hi
[20:45] <andybrine> Hey Everyone
[20:45] <andybrine> I have installed skype and it starts when I boot my laptop. Does anyone know how I can turn that off?
[20:49] <BlueProtoman> I can't run synaptic as root!  When I try, I get this error message, despite having been able to run synaptic as root for months.  http://pastebin.com/f2tDyKrD  Any tips?
[20:50] <BlueProtoman> Kubuntu 15.10
[21:02] <tux|dude> Morning all
[21:03] <bprompt> afternoon here
[21:04] <tux|dude> lol
[21:04] <tux|dude> New Zealand time is weird
[21:06] <Fritigern> BlueProtoman: Try using kdesudo synaptic
[21:07] <BlueProtoman> Fritigern: Same error
[21:07] <Fritigern> Did you try a reinstall yet? sudo apt-get purge synaptic && sudo apt-get install synaptic
[21:09] <BlueProtoman> Fritigern: Yep, same error
[21:10] <Fritigern> I am out of ideas. For one thing, dunno why it would want to use Mir when Kubuntu never has.
[21:10] <Fritigern> You are stuck with muon I'm afraid
