[00:16] <sumarsono> hi all
[00:16] <sumarsono> new comer here
[00:17] <sumarsono> i need your help, i can not setting up static ip for my kubuntu 16.04 via network manager.
[00:21] <sumarsono> the system give me popup message: can not set property: value "158681256" of type guint is invalid or out of range for property 'gateway-ping-timeout' of type 'guint'
[00:34] <OerHeks> 158.68.12.56 or 158.68.125.6 or 15.86.81.256 .. oh, skip the last one, that one is invalid
[06:38] <Quetzalcoatl> hi guys! can someonte tell me step by step how can i go back to the old naming network interface ?
[06:41] <Quetzalcoatl> i have freshly installed k1604lts and for some reason network manager applet is not displaying anything(speed), and in iptraf i can only see the lo interface
[06:41] <Quetzalcoatl> i cant see the network interface
[06:42] <hateball> Quetzalcoatl: Pretty sure I told you yesterday
[06:43] <hateball> [15:47:50] <hateball> Quetzalcoatl: add "net.ifnames=0 biosdevname=0" to your grub bootline
[06:43] <Quetzalcoatl> hi hatebal! yes you did but didnt succedded :-D
[06:43] <hateball> That's strange
[06:43] <Quetzalcoatl> that's why i need a little guidance
[06:43] <Quetzalcoatl> :D
[06:44] <hateball> Well, to test it just boot computer, hold/hammer left shift to get into grub menu, edit the bootline and add the stuff between "" after "quiet splash"
[06:46] <acheron88> 2nd from last section https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/PredictableNetworkInterfaceNames/
[06:48] <Quetzalcoatl> ok.. i will try that and i will let you know
[06:48] <Quetzalcoatl> and for making this change permanent ? i guess i will have to change the default/grub file
[06:49] <hateball> Quetzalcoatl: Edit /etc/default/grub yes
[06:50] <hateball> and then you'll need to sudo update-grub
[06:51] <Quetzalcoatl> to sumarize: i will have a line with this parameters: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="net.ifnames=0 biosdevname=0". correct ?
[06:53] <hateball> mhm, they left
[06:56] <Quetzalcoatl> thanks hateball. worked like a charm
[06:56] <hateball> Quetzalcoatl: :)
[06:57] <Quetzalcoatl> now, i have to figure out why the network applet doesnt work properly
[07:12] <Quetzalcoatl> well, i see that is a bug in network manager applet that is known by devs
[07:17] <Quantos> I just reinstalled 15.10 after trying out 16.04 and I can't get my USB headset to work
[07:19] <Quantos> I'm not sure if I should ask that here or in #kde
[07:26] <hateball> Quantos: define "to work"
[07:26] <hateball> Quantos: is it visible in volume settings?
[07:27] <Quantos> Yes, it is
[07:27] <Quantos> No sound comes out
[07:28] <Quantos> It's also correctly identified in lsusb
[07:31] <hateball> Quantos: is it set as your primary channel/device ?
[07:32] <hateball> Quantos: Also, why did you install 15.10? It will be EOL in not too long, while 16.04 is LTS
[07:33] <Quantos> 16.04 isn't quite ripe yet
[07:33] <Quantos> Still a few too many issues for me
[07:34] <Quantos> Yes, I believe it is set as a primary, it shows the speakers and then it shows the headset
[07:34] <johnflux> I just upgraded, and the now the font in the taskbar thing at the bottom of the screen is tiny
[07:34] <johnflux> maybe font 6 or less
[07:35] <Quantos> One thing I should mention is the volume control on the headset adjusts the speaker volume
[07:41] <johnflux> okay changing to the 'breeze' theme fixed the tiny text
[07:41] <johnflux> but now my alt-tab window is on the side :-/
[07:42] <hateball> johnflux: well that is configurable
[07:44] <johnflux> okay sorted :-)  compact style looks nice
[08:06] <six86> Hello... I am unable to create a 16.04 stick under Kubuntu. I tried mkusb, unetbootin, usb-creator-kde and usb-creator-gtk... The error is always: Boot error, please insert boot device...
[08:06] <six86> Creating the stick under 14.04 results in the known error of not beeing bootable
[08:07] <six86> Creating under windows works like a charm... what a shame
[08:07] <six86> Is there a solid way to create a bootable stick from 16.04? Best would be to use easy command line tools like dd...
[08:20] <maxg> @six86 dd should work. I prefer >>cp <image> <device> <<, though. Both should work.
[08:20] <maxg> I created my 16.04-alpha stick using cp
[08:21] <six86> simply cp?
[08:22] <maxg> cp <image> <device>
[08:22] <maxg> or
[08:22] <maxg> dd if=<image> of=<device>
[08:22] <maxg> dd has the advantage that you can monitor the progress
[08:22] <maxg> cp works silently 'till the end
[08:22] <six86> I'll try the cp. Had no luck with dd yesterday...
[08:22] <maxg> you need rood privileges for that.
[08:23] <maxg> did you check the checksum of the image?
[08:23] <six86> yep. I'm preseeding and my Script checks the checksum
[08:58] <yossarianuk> morning ! Having a brain fart and cannot see where to enable/disable desktop effects - after switching GPU I seems to have lost them
[09:00] <yossarianuk> where in system settings is it ? And what is the shortcut to enable/disable desktop effects
[09:02] <yossarianuk> ah - its alt+shift+f12
[11:29] <BluesKaj> Hey folks
[11:59] <Smurphy> Morning
[12:00] <BluesKaj> 'Morning
[12:26] <six86> still not able to create a bootable ubuntu stick from Kubuntu 16.04. Whatever I try, the stick is not bootable and has no partition table after creating the stick
[12:27] <BluesKaj> six86:  formatted to fat32?
[12:28] <BluesKaj> six86:  recommend disk creator or dd , unetbootin fails a lot
[12:31] <six86> tried everything: unetbootin, disk-creator-kde, disk-creator-gtk, mkusb, dd, cp
[12:31] <six86> so far, it only worked under windows *yay*
[12:31] <six86> And tried it on different machines, two with 16.04, one with 14.04
[12:32] <six86> I preseeded my installation and now have my own iso. And I simply can't manage to get it on a bootable stick.
[12:34] <six86> And I also tried different USB flash drives
[12:40] <BluesKaj> six86:  then you don't have the proper settings in the iso to make it bootable...obviously, however I don't know how to do so.
[12:41] <BluesKaj> six86:  use an official kubuntu iso, that's my advice
[12:44] <six86> BluesKaj: It is an official Ubuntu iso. With some additions for preseeding, but nothing changed, just some custom initrd added and soem menu points to load them. Nothing changed with the rest of the structure. And apparently it works, because some crappy first google hit Windows tool can create a bootable stick...
[12:46] <BluesKaj> just because windows says it's bootable by using their software doesn't make it so, six86
[12:46] <six86> BluesKaj: We installed 3 systems from that stick, that pretty much proofs it's working
[12:49] <BluesKaj> on what kind of machines?  UEFI or BIOS ? that may be the problem
[12:50] <six86> I think the ones we installed successfully on are BIOS
[12:51] <Smurphy> and does it work on EFI/UEFI setups ?
[12:52]  * BluesKaj thinks perhaps not
[12:53] <six86> so your assumption is, the windows created stickonly works on bios, and the ubuntu created only works on uefi?
[12:54] <BluesKaj> but UEFI stuff not my strong suit , since I wiped my laptop clean of W8.1 and set up a dos pt and formatted my partitions to ext4  then installed kubuntu
[12:55] <BluesKaj> six86:  I'm not assuming , I'm guessing
[12:55] <six86> :)
[12:55] <six86> Ok. I will got to the lab in a few minutes and try with different systems
[13:03] <six86> Sticks created under 14.04 worked on both systems. But they had a partition table...
[13:06] <six86> So, the stick created under windows boots on UEFI and BIOS systems. The several sticks created under ubuntu boot on none of the same systems
[13:10] <Smurphy> Then something else is wrong.
[13:10] <six86> Smurphy: but what?
[13:11] <six86> On different systems with different sticks, and none is bootable. :-)
[13:11] <six86> In the old days of 12.04 and 14.04 it justed worked with the usb-creator tool. Used it for years
[13:14] <six86> But comparing the windows stick to the linux stick, the file structure is somewhat different. As if it is writing its own boot structure
[13:44] <Smurphy> I just installed my systems using the USB Creator Tool on a 16.04 ?
[13:45] <Smurphy> Had to create a 32Bit bootable USB stick for my old coreDuo mac-mini. WOrked fine.
[14:59] <habits> Hi guys! Any idea why I cannot play mp3 files with Dragon player?
[15:00] <BluesKaj> habits, it's video player , not a music player, try amarok or vlc
[15:01] <BluesKaj> a video player
[15:02] <habits> ok, VLC worked! I did not know that Dragon Player is for video files. I kind of feel stupid now :D
[15:02] <habits> anywas, thanks for the quick response
[15:03] <BluesKaj> no need to feel stupis ,. we all make mistakes now and then , habits
[15:03] <BluesKaj> see, i can't spell :-)
[15:04] <habits> hahah, you are right! :)
[15:22] <dbacc> for those of you, who read this yesterday, my breeze-dark problem got fixed by using plasma 5.6 from backports-landing
[15:25] <yossarianuk> Getting frequent baloo crashes on 16.04
[15:25] <yossarianuk> Application: Baloo File Indexing Daemon (baloo_file), signal: Aborted - Using host libthread_db library "/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libthread_db.so.1".
[15:43] <dbacc> is there a konsole theme for breeze dark?
[15:49] <BluesKaj> yossarianuk, does baloo use the akonadi server ?
[15:51] <yofel> baloo doesn't use akonadi
[17:50] <Mrokii> Hello. I've tried to install Kubuntu on a laptop, was able to boot from a Live-CD of 16.04, but in the installer on the second screen (where it asks about installing third party software for graphics and WiFi), I can't click the "Continue Button". Any thoughts?
[17:51] <lethu> Mrokii: is your connection enabled?
[17:52] <Mrokii> lethu: If you mean Internet, then no.
[17:52] <lethu> Mrokii: then you have to enable it first
[17:53] <Mrokii> Okay, I'll look into that. Thanks.
[17:53] <lethu> Mrokii: np :)
[19:20] <matt__> Hi all
[22:48] <Guest1689> is apt broken for anyone else.
[22:49] <Guest1689> on 2 machines (kubuntu 16.04) apt-get update is not completing
[22:49] <Guest1689> (since this evening)
[22:50] <Guest1689> i.e - I see 'Fetched 265 kB in 0s (737 kB/s)     ' at the end of the apt-get update command but it doesn't return back to cli prompt
[22:51] <Guest1689> anyone else having this issue tonight (im in the UK if its a mirror issue)
[22:51] <genii> It's working fine here with Canadian repos
[22:52] <genii> Guest1689: Looks like another user or two in #ubuntu is having the exact problem right now.
[22:53] <Guest1689> odd - i'm assuming its a mirror issue as both machines have been able to update apt-get about 4 hrs ago..
[22:53] <Guest1689> genii: cheers
[22:53] <soee_> it stopped for me jew minutes ago
[22:54] <soee_> working now again but i had problems like: ** (appstreamcli:10695): WARNING **: Exception: Unable to get write lock on /var/cache/app-info/xapian/default: already locked
[22:54] <soee_> i removed all /var/cache content
[22:54] <Guest1689> soee_: cheers - I had done a 'apt-get clean' when it stopped working.
[22:54] <Guest1689> still broken here
[22:55] <Guest1689> will ask in the other room also
[23:16] <hydrogen> Hi friends.  For some new and exciting reason Xorg has decided to mirror my displays
[23:16] <hydrogen> It worked just fine last night
[23:16] <hydrogen> it works just fine in sddm
[23:16] <hydrogen> but as soon as i log into plasma my displays are mirrored instead of extended
[23:16] <hydrogen> "Display configuration" doesn't seem to have anything useful
[23:16] <hydrogen> ideas?
[23:19] <hydrogen> oh
[23:19] <hydrogen> well that's special
[23:19] <hydrogen> apparently it decided to place DVI-0 right on top of DISPLAYPORT-0 in the screen configuration
[23:19] <hydrogen> which has the undocumented feature of mirroring the display?
[23:39] <DarthShader2> Hey guys. I just upgraded to kubuntu 16.04. I got two problems, my terminal is "screwedup" (cursor is shifted to the right of where it's typing), and "sudo apt update" hangs after "Fetched ..."
[23:42] <soee> DarthShader2: there is some problem with apt atm
[23:42] <soee> there is a discussion on #ubuntu
[23:43] <DarthShader2> Ah I see, so I guess that should fix itself eventually. What about the terminal?
