[00:06] <badoo> I have a little issue with widgets, they're not displaying properly I have to click on them in order to see their content, does anyone know what might be the issue ?
[00:34] <pasjrwoctx> anyone here know anything about nvidia and 16.04?
[01:07] <adymitruk> kmail is a real pain. Getting a crash or infinite loop when I try to send an email. It's getting to the point of not being usable at all.
[01:07] <adymitruk> at this point, anyone adding features to it should be shot. The only thing that sholud be done to kmail is full time bug fixes and removal of unused features
[01:18] <matt1> adymitruk: Have given up on kmail.  It was my absolute favourite email client, but now it is unusable.  Just freezes for no reason all over the place.
[01:18] <adymitruk> sad.. so much potential
[01:21]  * ildefonso ended up using thunderbird... had to give up on kmail long ago :( 
[01:22] <pasjrwoctx> does anyone know how to create Separate X Screen in ubuntu 16.04
[03:21] <YankDownUnder> Anyone have an issue with kscreenlocker - and not being able to use the keyboard or mouse after locking the screen?
[06:03] <user|70643> Does UNetBootin work for creating a bootable Kubuntu USB?
[06:16] <YankDownUnder> Yes...
[06:16] <YankDownUnder> ...just in case you show up again...
[08:09] <dv_> does kwin crash every now and then for others here as well? (kubuntu 16.04, nvidia gtx 960)
[08:10] <dv_> and nvidia binary drivers
[08:24] <hateball> dv_: can't say it does
[08:24] <hateball> dv_: using 361 drivers?
[08:25] <dv_> 361.42 yes
[08:26] <hateball> dv_: You could try a later driver from the PPA, unsupported as it is
[08:26] <hateball> dv_: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install nvidia-367
[08:26] <hateball> (works for me)
[08:26] <dv_> here's one backtrace http://pastie.org/pastes/10850062/text?key=txf7mcyhh3saculfglwnq
[08:27] <ejay> Hi. I installed plasma 5.6.4 from backports on kubuntu 16.04. Kdeinit5 keeps crashing like there is no tomorrow. Why? How to diagnose whats wrong?
[08:27] <dv_> since this seems aurorae specific, I'll try next if using a non-aurorae kwin theme is a workaround
[08:27] <hateball> ejay: I think for backports you may get better answers in #kubuntu-devel
[08:28] <hateball> At least I have seen that channel be refered to for backports
[08:36] <ejay> hateball: thanks
[09:07] <m_tadeu> how to use bonjour in ktelepathy?
[09:08] <steve-_-1> so this has been happening for over a year? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/muon/+bug/1429482 is any work happening to fix that bug?
[09:17] <jonah> Hi can anyone please help. I'm running 16.04 and just put some updates in when they popped up and after rebooting I now don't have any desktop or plasma, just a black screen and a konsole which I'm having to use to launch stuff!
[09:20] <soee> jonah: can you open krunner: ALT + F2 ?
[09:22] <jonah> soee: no it sot of flashes where it should be but I can't type in the box. I think also my nvidia driver was removed so I'm not sure what driver I should have installed...
[09:22] <jonah> soee: I can run muon though and other stuff from konsole
[09:22] <jonah> soee: do i just install the nvidia driver with the highest number?
[09:22] <soee> jonah: type in konsole: plasmashell
[09:23] <soee> jonah: what GPU you have? install driver that supports your card :)
[09:23] <jonah> soee: plasmashell gives me "libEGL warning: DRI2: failed to authenticate" and then an error about kscreen and an unversioned plugin detected
[09:24] <jonah> soee: i'm not sure what card I have, but i know it's nvidia at least
[09:24] <soee> uhm did you changed opengl interface from GLX to EGL maybe ?
[09:24] <jonah> soee: it's gf108 card
[09:24] <jonah> soee: geforce gt 630 nvidia
[09:25] <jonah> soee: I really don't know, I didn't choose any changes etc, just ran the updates that popped up in package updates notifier!
[09:25] <soee> sudo apt-add-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa
[09:25] <soee> sudo apt update
[09:25] <soee> sudo apt install nvidia-367
[09:26] <hateball> or for a oneliner: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install nvidia-367
[09:26]  * hateball abuses aliases
[09:26] <jonah> haha
[09:26] <soee> jonah: did you rebooted after upgrades (twice) ?
[09:26] <jonah> ok running that and will reboot to see if it works and pop back in here to report
[09:27] <jonah> soee: yes I did reboot after the updates, but just once I think...
[09:27] <soee> i remember lasma failed once for users and after second reboot it worked -.-
[09:27] <hateball> jonah: do you have multiple monitors?
[09:27] <jonah> hateball: yes two monitors, only one is now on and the other dissappeared and is just a black screen
[09:27] <hateball> as that is another bag of issues, which purging kscreen configs will sort
[09:27] <hateball> yep.
[09:28] <hateball> jonah: configs for monitors are found in ~/.local/share/kscreen/
[09:28] <hateball> jonah: you can kill those and reboot and it should regenerate them
[09:28] <jonah> OK well my shell is on 97% on that driver install so I'll be back in a bit once rebooted. thanks for helping
[09:28] <hateball> :)
[09:29] <soee> i forget to ask if he has backports enabled ... :/
[09:33] <jonah> soee: Hi thanks very much! I'm back up and back to normal. It was just the nvidia driver that had somehow been replaced with some legacy thingy
[09:33] <jonah> hateball: thank you!
[09:34] <jonah> One other thing while I'm in here - has anybody else's konsole gone odd looking recently? Mine now has like a few spaces after where you type so you're not quite sure where your cursor is when typing or highlighting stuff??
[09:35] <soee> jonah: btw did you installed Plasma 5.6 from backports ?
[09:35] <jonah> soee: yeah could of done!
[09:36] <soee> jonah: i have problems with console on 2 screens with nvidia driver - all works fine on connected screen but on laptop it "laging" and teraing
[09:36] <jonah> soee: yeah got 5.6.4-0ubuntu1~ubuntu16.04~ppa1
[09:36] <soee> but im on a laptop with hybrid graphic
[09:37] <jonah> soee: ah that must be it - it's like the text is catching up with the cursor
[09:37] <soee> so when i need it and working, im switching to intel profile :)
[09:38] <jonah> soee: also I've noticed in my konsole appearance settings it says "you are using a theme with transparent background which is not supported on your system" or something like that... but transparency used to work ok...
[09:39] <soee> hmm
[09:39] <jonah> soee: exact error sorry is "This colour scheme uses a transparent background which does not appear to be supported on your desktop"
[09:40] <soee> but effects work on other desktop elements ?
[09:41] <jonah> soee: well actually now I'm looking, I don't think I have any effects on anything.... I didn't used to have much switched on but it did have a little shadow and transparency etc, just like the default stuff.
[09:41] <jonah> soee: but no, now nothing...
[09:42] <soee> ALT + SHIFT + F12
[09:42] <soee> should toggle them
[09:42] <jonah> soee: ah yes that's got it working again! thank you again!
[09:42] <jonah> soee: how weird.. hah
[09:43] <jonah> soee: ok gotta dash as this has made me late for work now ahha but thanks again
[09:43] <soee> also be sure to go to System Settings -> Display & Monitor -> Compositor
[09:44] <soee> and check Disable compositor for full screen windows and Tearing Prevention (vsync) to  "Full screen repaints"
[09:56] <hateball> soee: You do not use ForceFullCompositionPipeline ?
[09:56] <hateball> I dunno how that works with hybrid gpu tho
[09:57] <soee> hateball: it does nothing for this multiscreen issue
[09:57] <soee> it is nvidia driver + kernel + x issue
[09:57] <hateball> Ah
[09:58] <hateball> I only use multiscreen at work, with pure Intel. Which is bad enough :p
[09:58] <soee> :)
[11:20] <BluesKaj> Hey folks
[11:52] <yossarianuk> hi - how can I create an ISO from an existing USB stcik - just tried using dd for a windows10 usb stick but it doesn't boot
[11:55] <BluesKaj> yossarianuk, please explain , are trying to copy from a srick with dd or is it the target?
[11:57] <yossarianuk> i.e I have an existing Windows 10 USB stick I would like to convert that to an .ISO (which I can boot using virt-manager)
[11:57] <yossarianuk> I tried 'dd if=/dev/sdc of=/path/to/iso'
[12:00] <BluesKaj> yossarianuk, my understanding is that making a windows iso bootable on a stick is next to impossible.
[12:02] <yossarianuk> BluesKaj: cheers - looks like i'll have to re-download
[12:05] <BluesKaj> yossarianuk, it might be possible , just never heard of it being successful
[13:57] <dbacc> hi, since I switched from HDMI to DP connection, my system keeps occasionally freezing (completely dead). Happens every second day or so. Unfortunately the logs do not seem to be very helpful. All I can find is this line printed several times:
[13:57] <dbacc> kscreen: Primary output changed from KScreen::Output(Id: 67 , Name: "DP2" ) ( "DP2" ) to KScreen::Output(Id: 67 , Name: "DP2" ) ( "DP2" )
[14:14] <BluesKaj> dbacc, must be a bug in kscreen
[14:29] <dbacc> BluesKaj: is there a way to get more debug information? It's not really helpful that way if I file a bug report;)
[15:12] <badoo> Hi everyone! Every time I switch from my tvscreen to my laptop my widgets get messy ad everything and I have to organise them again which is annoying, is there any way to fix this ??
[15:15] <BluesKaj> badoo, does this happen after a reboot as well?
[15:15] <badoo> I mean the screen resolutions aren't the same
[15:16] <badoo> so everytime I have to fix how widgets are displayed, I don't know after reboot never tried
[15:16] <BluesKaj> so you have to reset the resolution
[15:18] <badoo> the resolution is the same on my tv but the widgets are all messy, I don't know if it is normal
[15:19] <badoo> and what people do usually to fix this, I like widgets a lot but if I have to do this again every time I might just get rid of them :/
[15:20] <BluesKaj> badoo, what about just rechoosing the same desktop theme in system settings
[15:21] <badoo> I don't understand how that can help
[15:27] <badoo> sorry, I kept switching between laptop/tv and kubuntu crashed
[15:31] <BluesKaj> badoo, I've tried what you're doing with our tv and I had nothing but Xserver screen placement and res problems even on windows.
[15:32] <BluesKaj> my old pc which I'm using now works well with our tv and it's become our media server with a few hardware improvements
[15:53] <badoo> Blueskaj my pc works fine too, the only issue I have with kubuntu is when I switch between two my laptop and tv
[15:56] <badoo> ok so i did two different activitites (one for my tv and one for my laptop) and it looks like it's working fine
[15:59] <BluesKaj> badoo, good idea, maybe I'll try that if I need to in the future
[16:01] <badoo> but I think that there's a way to assign a virtual desktop to a monitor
[16:02] <badoo> which is better since I still have to switch between activites before I switch to my laptop screen
[16:02] <badoo> I'm a perfectionnist :p
[16:05] <BluesKaj> nothing wrong with wanting the right setup and behaviour
[16:43] <Canucktux> Hello, I'm having some trouble installing a lib-purple plugin into telepathy
[16:43] <Canucktux> I'd like to install this https://github.com/eionrobb/pidgin-opensteamworks
[16:50] <BluesKaj> Canucktux, I see you joined #kde , asking there is probly a better idea than here
[16:50] <Canucktux> BluesKaj: I've asked but of the 500 people there no-one has said anything
[16:52] <BluesKaj> Canucktux, tbh , I don't see a lot of questions or discussion about telepathy and pidgin in here, at least not for many yrs.
[16:53] <Canucktux> BluesKaj: no probs, I was just looking for somewhere to start
[16:53] <Canucktux> the wiki page is pretty sparse
[16:53] <BluesKaj> right
[17:19] <SemiNus> hi
[17:19] <SemiNus> I have a problem with the brand new Kubuntu 16.04
[17:19] <SemiNus> This is the output of "top":
[17:19] <SemiNus> http://pastie.org/pastes/10850712/text?key=rhq6ezdygoj9y5547g26a
[17:20] <SemiNus> however, the CPU usage of chromium-browser was already up to 30% per process which means that the CPU was totally overused when 3-4 processes cause 30% CPU load each
[17:20] <SemiNus> what could be wrong?
[17:24] <SemiNus> this is what top shows after I scrolled in chromium:
[17:24] <SemiNus> http://pastie.org/pastes/10850717/text?key=iyety42cy26i5abiy6tpbq
[17:24] <SemiNus> using my mouse-scroll-wheel seems to cause serious stress to my CPU
[17:33] <suncokret> hello! what is better to install kubuntu 14.04 or kubuntu 16.04?

[17:39] <ahzzz> Now it is anupgrade have installed several time so now on Kubuntu 14.04with updates
[17:40] <ahzzz> Willing to try aqny thing at this point
[17:44] <louis_> hello
[17:45] <ahzzz> hello louis
[19:49] <Aziroshin> Hello. :)
[19:50] <Aziroshin> I am having issues with Ubiquity: I hit "Continue" on the Prepare tab (the "install third party" checkmark" tab and whatnot)
[19:50] <Aziroshin> And it seems to be hanging indefinitely.
[19:51] <Aziroshin> Well... of course it finally starts working once I installed Quassel and asked for help on an IRC channel. XD
[20:05] <Fanfare> Q: Anyone knows a good Hardware-channel? I think i broke my Blueray/DVD-player...
[20:06] <Fanfare> after some dvd ripping/copying, it stops reading dvds... Any hints?
[20:32] <valorie> Fanfare: you might search using alis
[20:32] <valorie> !alis
[20:33] <Fanfare> valorie: thx
[20:33] <bprompt> Fanfare:     what are you looking for anyway?
[20:34] <Fanfare> why my bluerayplayer stoped working...
[20:35] <Fanfare> did copy couple of dvds and now it stoped reading first big files even from dvds he read already...
[20:35] <bprompt> hmmm w0t?
[20:36] <bprompt> Fanfare:    I hope you realize that question is rather too broad, just as much as me asking "where are my car keys?"
[20:37] <Fanfare> https://paste.kde.org/pmzintdxw
[20:37] <bprompt> Fanfare:    there's a ##hardware channel, but something tells me, they'll tell you the same thing I said
[20:38] <Fanfare> well, i would ask in more detail over there, as this is not the right channel i suppose...
[20:40] <bprompt> Fanfare:     without any specifics, could be a number of things, if you meant the bluray dvd-drive, could be software, drivers, or could be just the dvd disc, is scratched or such, could be the dvd drive itself it's flimsy
[20:50] <Fanfare> sorry for the noise, works again, but don't know why...
[20:51] <bprompt> Fanfare:     as aformentioned, without specifics, for all we know, it was some leprechauns  in it
[20:52] <Fanfare> bprompt: don't always blame the leprechauns...
