[01:09] hello everybody [01:10] does someone know if the History tab of KMenu in Kubuntu 16.04 has some kind of sorting settings ? [01:10] I tried to find them without luck [01:10] it seems to me the applications entries in that history are ordered by usage frequency [01:11] but I would like to order them by most recently used [01:58] hello [01:58] kubuntu users [01:58] hello mattfly_5 [01:58] :) [01:59] for some reason i've lost the audio levels system tray, the volume indicator and level [01:59] i could get it back after installing kmix, but it is not the same that ir was before [02:00] on kubuntu 16.04 [02:00] is there any tip to get it back? [02:02] mattfly_5: Sounds like you accidently deleted your system tray. Ensure widgets are unlocked an add the system tray widget to the panel. [02:03] mattfly_5: let me know if you need a more detailed "how to" [02:09] no i don't [02:10] thanks for the help, i didn't removed the system tray. I was messing arround with pulseaudio and when i saw the speaker icon disappeared from the system tray [02:13] mattfly_5: did you uninstall PA (pulse audio)? [02:13] i did reinstalled it [02:13] reinstall* [02:14] isn't there a program (e.g a mixer) that is that icon? [02:15] llike, when i installed kmix a new icon appeared [02:15] PA now replaces kmix, so you should not need kmix. [02:15] pulse audio? [02:15] hm [02:15] weird [02:15] Right click on the system tray, and select system tray settings [02:15] i did [02:16] there's only the kmix mixer [02:16] On the General tab, check or recheck the audio volume option. [02:17] yeah, but there is no audio volume option [02:17] but PA is intalled, my sound is working and i rebooted twice after it [02:18] On the Entries tab, ensure Audio volume is set to Auto... [02:18] yes it is [02:19] Hmmm. try removing the panel entirely and re-add a new default panel. [02:21] i removed kmix from the system, removed the panel and readded it [02:21] there aren't aby refenrence to audio anymore in the system tray or in its configurations [02:22] OK, just a sec. Checking my packages for a PA widget.... [02:23] o gee [02:23] plasma segmentation fault [02:23] am i the only one who get so many seg faults while making changes in plasma? [02:24] I don't make many changes in plasma, but after 16.04, plasmas 5.5.5 and up, plasma has been very stable. [02:24] I did start with a clean install of 16.04. [02:25] me too [02:25] found it. Install the plasma-pa widget.... [02:25] with changes i mean, dealing with widgets and thing [02:25] oh [02:25] ok [02:26] lol [02:26] now my cursor desappeared [02:26] hahaha [02:26] LOL. [02:26] You are not having a good day. [02:27] i must be the most bugging user [02:27] oh, it reapeared! [02:28] open a terminal and retart plasma (killall plasmashell && plasmashell &) [02:28] i do this a lot [02:29] ensure to close the terminal by typing exit. If you click on the X to close the window, the plasma session will die. [02:29] What video card? [02:29] i use nohup [02:29] yeah, i was using nvidia 740M [02:29] with nvidia-340 drivers [02:29] But i trunned it off [02:29] turnned* [02:29] back to intel [02:30] OK. [02:30] pavucontrol might be useful alongside/instead of plasma-pa [02:31] I've found it useful in the past [02:31] yes, pavucontrol is also useful [02:31] i ha ve it [02:32] have** [02:32] hehe, i was trying to create a duplex device when i messed up with pulseaudio and the icon [02:32] to send like, mic audio and another program audio at the same time as a mic input [02:33] If you have both a microphone and speakers, duplex is valid. [02:33] wonders if there was a easier way [02:33] The PAVU utility is the only way I know to combine all inputs. [02:34] Thanks Darin !! [02:34] i got the original icon back now [02:34] np :) Good to hear! [02:34] i have both mics and speakers [02:35] how to combine the inputs to like, send music and me talking to skype and have isolate audio levels control? [02:36] actuallt i need that for mixxx [02:36] I want to interview someone from skype [02:45] PAVU allows control by device and application. Try using Audacity as your recording medium and PAVU will show Audacity on the recording tab when Audacity is recording. [02:47] You may want to mute or dramatically lower your mic gains. [02:47] and? [02:52] During the recording, I recommend selecting Monitor of built in audio Analog stereo on the PA VA recording tab. You can only select this when the recording is enabled. [02:56] ok === kubuntu is now known as Guest53691 === pepee- is now known as pepee [06:08] hi [06:09] :-* [06:13] Guys, is there anyone using Viber x64 on Kubuntu? I have a system crash every time I try to load the application. It said it was installed successfully but every time I run it... something goes wrong. [06:13] :/ [06:21] Hello. I am new to open source and want to start contributing. How do I start? [06:22] hangman13us, what is Viber? [06:23] hangman13us, also, you could debug the crash by reading your system logs from another computer, through the network [06:24] akshat_, guess you could start by finding crashes and submitting patches [06:24] or adding features, and so on [06:24] hi pepee. Viber is VoIP application (gained some market share from Skype) It works on mobile devices and the ID is linked with the number of your phone [06:25] @pepee Which type of application should I choose to contribute? [06:25] http://www.viber.com/en/ [06:26] that's... interesting, actually [06:26] hangman13us, system crash as in, the computer locks up? [06:27] Sorry I made a mistake. Not my whole system. Only Viber App. [06:27] ah [06:27] It doesn't start at all. I re-installed few times. [06:27] well, the suggestion is to google any error messages that you can see [06:27] Used to work with previous versions of Viber. [06:28] It is well hidden btw. only shows the directory I used for it. [06:28] And at some point stopped showing it at all. I just press the icon and nothing happens. [06:29] just wanted to see if someone else is using this s***t [06:29] and am I the only one experiencing this problem. [06:30] hangman13us, I'd ask in #ubuntu too [06:31] This is the oddest bit. Viber says it is fully compatible with Ubuntu. And the app even exists in the repository. [06:31] Kubuntu must be similar but I cannot find any valid pack and I manually install it. Then it goes wrong. Will try Ubuntu as well. [06:33] pepee: You could ask in #kubuntu-devel [06:33] hangman13us: do you get any feedback if you run the app from a terminal? [06:34] Not really. I'm not so familiar with the terminal. [06:34] How do a start an application in there? [06:36] hateball, I used " &" [06:37] hangman13us: open Konsole, start typing viber and press tab, it should complete the name if it's not simply "viber" [06:37] hangman13us: or try "locate viber" first to see where it is [06:38] It seems to be in "/opt/viber" [06:38] And when I simply use the name of the app it returns information with "\" and combinations of digits and letters like: [06:39] u0432\u4324 and etc. [06:39] !paste | hangman13us [06:39] hangman13us: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.kde.org | To post !screenshots use http://imgur.com/ !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. [06:40] hateball, ask what? [06:41] oh, that was for akshat_ [06:41] pepee: oh, yes [06:41] my bad [06:42] Too much blood in my caffeeine system [06:43] hehe [06:44] took a while to make it: http://imgur.com/gLRfO9J [06:45] hateball, ubottu - this is the return from trying to launch the Viber through my konsole. [06:45] uh... that looks broken [06:46] hangman13us: try running: /opt/viber/Viber [06:46] exactly like that [06:46] I'm not even sure I installed it correctly :/ will try [06:48] hateball you're right: http://imgur.com/XFBgmo5 [06:49] But can this be because I run Kubuntu and not Ubuntu? I don't think KDE will screw it up... [06:49] Just can't be. Most likely I failed to install properly. [06:49] And I installed and removed it few times already. Maybe just the release is wrong. [06:50] hangman13us: eh... is that from Konsole? [06:50] seems to run here [06:50] yes [06:51] hangman13us: What GPU/driver are you using? [06:51] Hm. I'm not such an expert... sorry. [06:51] I just installed Kubuntu and updated it with all I found in I-net. [06:51] and installed few applications I'm using. [06:51] hangman13us: run this in a terminal "lspci -k |nc termbin.com 9999" [06:52] and give us the resulting url [06:52] hangman13us: And you are on 16.04 ? [06:53] http://termbin.com/tj20 [06:53] 15 I think the LTS version (whatever the latest LTS was). [06:53] 16.04 is current LTS, 14.04 is older [06:53] hangman13us: what does "cat /etc/issue" say? [06:54] 14.04 [06:54] 14.04.4 LTS \n \l to be precise. [06:54] hangman13us: alright, then try "sudo apt-get install libqt5gui5" then run Viber again [06:54] maybe time to upgrade? [06:55] certainly runs here on 16.04 - or a least launches seemingly ok [06:55] !ltsupgrade [06:55] Users of 14.04 LTS will be offered the automatic upgrade when 16.04.1 LTS is released, which is scheduled for July 21st. [06:55] googling suggests it's built against qt5 libs which are default not installed in 14.04 [06:56] hangman13us: so try installing the package above ^ [06:56] hateball, I did. It gives the same message as before. [06:56] The one with the \u and digits. [06:56] hangman13us: try re-installing the viber package [06:56] okay [06:57] also seems to have it's own bundled qt5 libraries [06:59] guys, I remove it. [06:59] If I have the pack viber.deb in my downloads folder I should be able to install it using: sudo apt-get install VIBER [06:59] hangman13us: No [06:59] But it always says cannot find it. [07:00] and I install it with the package manager. [07:00] hangman13us: apt works against the repositories. if you want to sideload packages you use "sudo dpkg -i package.deb" [07:00] the dependency list in the package is very short, so they may have built it just assuming something a bit newer than 14.04 [07:00] running ldd against it would tell [07:00] I do not have a 14.04 machine to test with myself tho [07:01] Do I have to use full path to the *.deb file? [07:01] as it says no such file or directory. [07:01] hangman13us: In case you are not in the files directory, yes [07:02] cd ~/Downloads [07:06] THank you guys. MAybe it seems strange for people more advanced than myself but now I cannot tell if it has finished the job or not... [07:06] http://imgur.com/MauPbt6 [07:06] Should be completed I guess. [07:09] It works fine at the moment, thou I'm not sure what actually we did. I assume I've repeated the same steps I did on my own earlier. I used the graphic way thou. [07:10] But the update bit was what I didn't complete earlier. And it seems this fixed it. [07:10] Missing library I assume? [07:12] hangman13us: Yes, the missing Qt5 library [07:12] hangman13us: so you are saying the application starts fine now? [07:13] Thanks hateball, I will read this now: http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/libqt5gui5 [07:13] hangman13us: basically it is files needed by the Viber application to render a GUI [07:13] And thanks for your patience I know I'm a noob at the moment but trying to get more familiar with Linux and use it better. [07:13] hangman13us: That's what we are here for :) [07:13] I see. [07:14] Everyone is a beginner at first [07:14] I know, but many people drop it before they get closer to Linux so they use it on their own. [07:14] ;) [07:46] Hi, I have a problem. I added the kubuntu backport ppa but now I want to return to the default app version. So I want to downgrade the applications and to remove the ppa. I tried with the command ppa-purge but when I wrote in the terminal this command "sudo ppa-purge ppa:/kubuntu-ppa/backports" the output of the terminal was this [07:46] Updating packages lists [07:46] PPA to be removed: /kubuntu-ppa backports [07:46] Warning: Could not find package list for PPA: /kubuntu-ppa backports [07:46] I don't know what to do now [07:48] needs to be 'sudo ppa-purge ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports' [07:49] you have a / that shouldn't be there [07:56] Many thanks!.

[19:52] Bundestrojaner, does nvidia say the driver works with our gpu? if so just run sudo apt install nvidia-361 [19:53] your gpu rather [19:53] BluesKaj: yes, they list it for my gpu on their site [19:53] but i don't want to download it there [19:53] it is in the driver ppa already I think https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa [19:54] acheron_uk: this file says "For GeForce 6 and 7 series GPUs use `nvidia-304`" why? [19:54] nvidia lists 361 for my 670 [19:55] Bundestrojaner, i wasn't recommending you download it from nvidia [19:55] BluesKaj: i know [19:55] you recommended to install it with apt-get [19:56] geforce 6/7 cards are not the same as 600/700 series [19:56] Bundestrojaner, theymean the 6000 series not 600 [19:56] ok, got it [19:56] they really mean the 6000-series from 2004 [19:57] thx [19:57] my 8400 GS still uses the 340 [19:57] so i shall install it with apt-get install nvidia-361? [19:58] I'm on a 7xx (re-branded 6xx) and the 361 or 364 driver is fine [19:58] i'm still on 352, but wot flickers since 9.15 [19:59] the forum says, the new nvidia-driver fix it [19:59] btw: really strange that windows and linux have similar bugs... [20:04] BluesKaj, acheron_uk: so i shall install it with apt-get install nvidia-361? [20:07] Bundestrojaner, if you have the ubuintu-graphics-ppa then you'll get the newest 361, otherwise you'll get the 361 default version [20:08] ok, thx! [20:16] is it possible to upgrade a 14.04 lts to the newest non-lts? [20:17] Bundestrojaner: not easily, but why wouldn't you want to move to 16.04? [20:18] Pici: it didn't offer the update yet [20:20] Bundestrojaner: it won't automatically offer the update until July 21st [20:20] !ltsupgrade [20:20] Users of 14.04 LTS will be offered the automatic upgrade when 16.04.1 LTS is released, which is scheduled for July 21st. [20:24] ubottu: but i don't need a lts [20:24] Bundestrojaner: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [20:24] Pici [20:25] Bundestrojaner: its a real pain to upgrade to a non-supported release. Since Ubuntu does not allow skipping releases for non-ltses, you'd need to upgrade to 14.10, then to 15.04, then to 15.10... which will reach its end of life in July anyway, so you would then upgrade to 16.04. [20:27] !eolupgrade [20:27] End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [20:30] Pici: ok. so i update to 6.04 lts next. can i update from it to the next non-lts release? [20:30] hi, does anyone know if there is going to be a new AMD catalyst release for ubuntu 16.04? [20:31] Bundestrojaner: if you meant 16.04, then yes, you can, but 16.10 won't be released until October [20:31] Ubuntu release numbers are based on the YEAR.MONTH of release [20:32] Pici: i just don't want to stay at 16.04 lts till next lts release [20:33] Bundestrojaner: thats fine. Just be aware that non-lts releases now are only supported for 9 months, so you'll need to be on-top of upgrading as new releases become available. [20:33] Pici: no problem, i will do upgrades when they become available [20:34] Pici: my question was only: can i upgrate from an lts to a non-lts release [20:34] so i upgrade to 16.04 lts and then to 16.10 non-lts? [20:35] Bundestrojaner: yes [20:35] Pici: thx :) [21:07] If someone could help, I'd greatly appreciate it. My Distribution Upgrade has hung, I cannot terminate the process using system monitor.

[21:20] It also broke the dolphin file manager, I cannot access my filesystem with dolphin, and I think it uninstalled kodi as well [21:21] well, probably the critical phase of the upgrade is already done then [21:21] can you reboot and see the dpkg status? [21:27] I cannot reboot from the kde menu, I can try from terminal if you think it will boot back up? When I attempt to sudo dpkg --configure -a it states database is locked by another process, advise how to proceed? [21:28] That means wait a little while and then try the command again.
