Maxiridejust ran a mv between two folders, however within dolphin I still see the file from the source directory. It's like the mv is copying instead of moving..09:20
lordievaderDid you refresh the dolphin view?09:28
Maxiridelordievader: yep09:30
Maxirideand the mv just terminated itslef from the konsole due to lack of space on the hdd09:30
MaxirideI used mv with the options -f  -u and .v09:31
Maxiride-v09:31
Maxiridemight it be that the source folder has spaces in its name?09:31
lordievaderAh, that explains it.09:33
lordievaderWhat mv actually does is copy -> remove. If the copy fails the file is not removed.09:33
MaxirideD:09:34
Maxirideeven for filenames?09:34
lordievaderWhat do you mean?09:34
Maxiridethis issue in the mv command affects also file names with spaces in it or just foldernames with spaces?09:35
lordievaderWhat issue?09:35
lordievaderThe removing happens after each file transfer.09:35
lordievaderThus if you have a folder with files A, B and C in it and you move it. mv will move A, delete A, move B, delete B, move C, delete C.09:36
Maxirideaah ok09:36
lordievaderSuppose the move B action fails, it will abort.09:36

d9500where is the default sysem folder in which wallpaper image files are located in kubuntu?20:15
soee_d9500: the default Plasma wallpaper?20:18
d9500soee_, not really, but the folder where wallpapers are unpackaged in after i install a new wallpapers package20:21
d9500from the repos20:21
soee_uhm20:22
d9500for example, if i was to apt install plasma-workspace-wallpapers, where would dpkg put the file/s?20:23
DragnslcrCheck /usr/share/wallpapers20:24
d9500looking now, Dragnslcr20:25
BlueProtomanSometimes, when a command opens a Web page in my browser (Chromium), it opens the same page twice, in two tabs.  How can I fix this?  (Kubuntu 15.10)20:35
d9500Dragnslcr, you were correct and /usr/share/wallpapers is the folder...it didn't have the wallpaper i was looking for though21:07
d9500so that particular image file isn't part of the package21:08
d9500but thanks again!21:08
