goddardits funny how new versions now mean less features04:59
goddardtons of options have been removed from kde5 man04:59
goddardgoing from 14.04 to 16.04 is like they removed so much04:59
JMichaelXwhat sort of optopns have been removed?05:06
JMichaelXoptions*05:06
goddardJMichaelX: file menu widget, window control widget, icon only task bar options are more limited, and discover is more simplified it seems.  Haven't tested for long.05:10
goddardDiscover didn't even pulled up KDevelop a KDE specific development program, but it had a bunch of GTK editors ahha05:12
valoriegoddard: please file a bug on Discover05:22
valoriethe maintainer is trying hard to kill these bugs -- search in particular05:23
valorieMuon package manager is back btw05:23
* valorie prefers that05:23
valoriegoddard: right-click on the menu button and try out the alternatives05:23
valorieunsure what "window control widget" is05:24

Cyborg965210Hello! Please, my Kubuntu 16.04 is not displaying Japanese characters at all (e.g. names of files). Can someone help me or direct me to a certain page to learn how i can solve this problem by myself? Thank you.05:54
Cyborg965210I have also posted a question about that on this site: https://askubuntu.com/questions/769609/how-to-install-additional-languages-in-kubuntu-16-04-lts05:55
hateballCyborg965210: Open System settings05:56
hateballThere you should have "Regional Settings"05:56
Cyborg965210hateball: Thank you for your reply. Is it under "translations"?05:57
hateballCyborg965210: Yes, translations and also set your region05:58
hateballCyborg965210: Under "Formats" that is05:58
hateballI *think* that should prompt to install additional packages for translations.05:58
hateballCyborg965210: Otherwise I guess you can try installing manually with "sudo apt-get install language-pack-ja"05:59
hateballaaaaaaaaaaaaaand, make sure you're using a font that supports kanji06:00
Cyborg965210hateball: I want my system to stay in American English including the formats and input methods. However, i need the system itself to be able to display Japanese characters. Do you think that is a fonts related issue? Oh, thank you for the command.06:00
hateballCyborg965210: Ah, yes then it might just be fonts06:00
Cyborg965210hateball: Please do you know from where i can get such fonts in Kubuntu 16.04? (using the command that you just gave me?)06:01
hateballCyborg965210: "apt-cache search kanji|grep fonts" shows a few packages, but I do not know which ones are suitable for you06:02
Cyborg965210hateball: That looks great! Thanks a lot for your time and help today. I greatly appreciate your efforts. I can dig some good information from your tips. I just needed to know the right direction. Thank you so much!06:03
hateballCyborg965210: Good luck :)06:04
hyper_chhi there, when I try to shutdown kubuntu 16.04 I get a popup "Could not start ksmserver" and after that I get logged out and then I have to press again to shut down. What could be the casue?06:09
Cyborg965210Please can anyone help me with this question: https://askubuntu.com/questions/758600/i-cant-download-new-plasma-widgets-and-plasma-themes-in-kubuntu-16-04-lts | A bounty question. Thanks in advance for your help!06:11
hateball!jp | Cyborg96521006:12
ubottuCyborg965210: 日本語の場合は /join #ubuntu-jp または /join #kubuntu-jp を入力して下さい。06:12
hateballCyborg965210: If that is any more helpful maybe ^06:12
hateballCyborg965210: Do the characters display on that line btw?06:12
hateballI see them, using "ubuntu mono" font06:13
hateballhyper_ch: anything in ~/.xsession-errors ?06:14
Cyborg965210hateball: Yes, the characters are getting displayed. I found this useful command (gnome-language-selector) which really helps me in getting to the right section.06:14
hyper_chhateball: tons uf stuff06:14

viewer|93933Hi all. Got a question to kubuntu backports -> will plasma 5.6 be backported or not? I am probably not the first one to ask (asked once already without getting an answer). It would probably be nice if a tentative date would be communicated via forum, kubuntu news or whatsoever. If I know a ballpark schedule I might not have problems waiting, but if13:13
viewer|93933 not I might have to find out what to do because the new task list functions are something I have been waiting for impatiently...13:13
soeeviewer|93933: hiho13:18
viewer|93933hello soee13:18
soeeviewer|93933: yes it will be backported, in fact, we already test it on Xenial13:18
viewer|93933soee that s some great news - any ballpark date? a week, a forthnight, a month?13:19
soeeviewer|93933: not sure. Fe have Frameworsk 5.21 and Plasma 5.6.3 packaged for Xenial, but probably it will be Frameworks 5.22 and Plasma 5.6.4 that will hit the backports13:20
viewer|93933soee sorry, I don't know the expected date for 5.6.4, so I can't really get a sense when that might be?13:21
soeewell it should be released today by KDE community, and Kubuntu devs will start packaging it first for Yakkety than for Xenial13:22
viewer|93933Thank you so much soee. As I don't have an Idea, how long packaging takes - I know you do a lot of work for us dummy users - does it mean I might be able to have it within a month?13:24
viewer|93933or you'd rather say rather two months or so?13:24
soeeviewer|93933: i think sooner13:24
viewer|93933Great !13:25
soeefollow our community on Google+ for fresh info :)13:25

goddardEvilRoey: is that just like a emoticon todem pole17:17
adymitrukI'm using it with no problems except a few17:18
adymitrukI can't get instant messaging to work17:18
adymitrukI get "service name is empty" in the error log17:19
EvilRoeygoddard: it's a fork bomb17:19
adymitrukit crashes plasma when I try to configure it17:20
goddardadymitruk: sounds like a field is empty17:20
goddardadymitruk: ahh Neon and Kubuntu is not the same thing btw17:20
EvilRoeygoddard: it essentially defines a function in bash which calls itself twice, with the second time forking itself into another process, until your system resources get exhausted; this can be circumvented by having stricter ulimits set17:20
adymitrukyes, perhaps you know where I could manually populate that field?17:20
adymitrukgoddard: yes, but the programs on it should be the same17:20
EvilRoey.seen17:20
adymitrukie, I could solve the same issue here17:20
EvilRoeyhmm no bot here eh? ok.17:21
goddardadymitruk: they aren't the same versions and settings though17:21
=== Bill123 is now known as john26
goddardEvilRoey: thats cool or just having stricter not entering random commands17:21
goddardhaha17:21
adymitrukgoddard: no, but at least they have the settings in the same place17:21
adymitruklike the service name17:21
adymitrukhow do I admin the plasma database?17:22
goddardadymitruk: i am just saying i know what you are talking about but i can't help because kubuntu is not Neon17:22
goddardI think Neon has a chat17:22
adymitruksame issue happens on kubuntu for another user17:22
goddardadymitruk: i dont use instant messaging either17:23
adymitrukright.. so I could investigate further myself if I know where the plasma db is17:24
goddardadymitruk: https://github.com/tux3/qTox17:25
goddardif i did do instant messaging i would use this17:26
adymitrukwell i have people that contact me on google hangouts/chat17:29
adymitrukso no choice really17:29
goddardadymitruk: i use google hangouts on my phone17:30
goddardadymitruk: or you can just use it in chromium17:30
goddardpin a tab for hangouts.google.com17:31
goddarduse your phone for video and voice calls17:31
goddardthen use the tab for text conversations17:31
goddardsimple and you don't need to install google junk17:31
goddardchromium also has the ability to install a "desktop app" version of hangouts17:32
goddardi dont use it though because i don't want the extra stuff17:32
EvilRoeygoddard: aye :)17:35
EvilRoeygoddard: it's a well-known fork bomb in bash17:35
adymitrukwell, it's a pain.. so will wipe system to use 16.04 kubuntu and not have neon17:45
adymitrukI guess I should clear some stuff in .share so no bad config persists17:46
adymitrukany folders of interest that I should delete prior to zapping?17:47

JeroenDeDauwI just upgraded my pc from 15.10 to 16.04. I have 3 monitors. Only two of them are showing something now, and they are showing the same thing. Not finding how to change it back to how it was18:39
JeroenDeDauw"Display Configuration" is just showing me a single monitor18:39
soeeJeroenDeDauw: well drag the screen in Display Configuration18:50
soeemaybe they hover all18:50
JeroenDeDauwsoee: there is just one (I did the drag thing already, had that worked in the past ;p)18:54
soeeand they are not unified ?18:54
JeroenDeDauwLooks like I ran into this lovely thing http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2016/03/ubuntu-drops-amd-catalyst-fglrx-driver-16-0418:54
JeroenDeDauwsoee: the dropdown just shows one, and the unify button is grayed out18:54
JeroenDeDauwUgh, no idea how to fix this. Open source drivers are installed... so why is this not working?19:02
soeenot sure, i use only 2 screens configuration and they fork fine19:05
soeeexcept when connectting TV screen is blinking19:05
goddarddamn even the bluetooth audio controller is worse in 16.04 vs 14.0419:18
