[04:38] rustycog: never heard of spyware being in ubuntu [04:43] if you mean the amazon unity stuff: no [04:49] i have a tin-foil-hat kinda question, is there spyware in kubuntu like there was in ubuntu? [04:51] if you mean the amazon unity stuff: no [05:01] haha yes dax exactly [05:01] so they aren't trying to sneak in stuff like that? because I got discouraged using any canonical products after that fiasco [05:02] but then I heard soemthing about canonical getting all worked up with kubuntu [05:02] and wanted to distance themselves from that project [05:09] not that i know of, no [05:09] (re: sneaking in stuff) [06:39] Hey. I tried Kubuntu for the first time yesterday, but got a problem. Everything went fine, for cuple of hours, but suddenly it just froze. The SSD led stopped flashing. I used the physical off button to reboot, but a few seconds after login the same thing happened, over and over. Anyone ever experienced this? [06:40] Kubuntu 16.04 LTS 64-bi [06:40] t [06:43] irctc428: Does ~/.xsession-errors contain anything exciting? [06:43] irctc428: what GPU/driver are you using? [06:45] I have no accessible logs at the moment as I reinstalled with Xubuntu to see if it's more stable. [06:45] The GPU is an intergrated Intel Skylake [06:45] Driver is just what Kubuntu installed for me [06:46] The GPU driver is what I suspected mysel [06:46] f [06:49] irctc428: you do know you could have just "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop" rather than reinstall the entire system [06:50] irctc428: And if you're not running Plasma, as well have no logs, I don't see how we can help [06:51] No, it froze 2 seconds in after every login.. [06:51] there are issues with kwin vsync and intel gpus, that much I know [06:53] I did boot into recovery mode, so logs were accessible then. I will try to reinstall at a later point, and want to know what to look for then. [06:53] would it be the same to "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" from xubuntu? [06:54] Then I'll just get to choose which to boot in grub? [06:59] How do I get an on-screen keyboard and an icon to activate it in the task bar? [06:59] or bottom panel, or w/e [07:08] anyone using tiling kwin script? [07:09] it breaks gvim :( [07:11] > gvim [07:11] kek [07:12] makinen: any reason you'd use gvim instead of kate with vim bindings? [07:12] under plasma, that is [07:14] Yeah, or just regular Vim? [07:14] or [07:14] I've been using gvim for years [07:15] does kate even have the same functionality as gvim even with the vim bindings [07:15] As a Vim user, I found GVim to be a tacky terminal emulator for Vim. [07:16] regular vim doesn't have tabs :) [07:18] makinen: I see tabs at https://vimuser.org/ [07:21] can I switch between them by clicking one? [07:21] theyre buffers instead of tabs though [07:21] > editing text [07:21] > clicking [07:21] DOES_NOT_COMPUTE [07:22] The only person who's allowed to click while editing text is Ken. [07:22] Because ACME. [07:23] well, I'm using a browser at the same time when I'm coding in vim [07:24] frecel: Do you use GVim? [07:24] clicking tabs fits just fine to my workflow [07:24] But GVim... [07:25] It's the tackiest GUI I've ever seen. Emacs at least makes the GUI a full experience in its own right. [07:26] When I used Vim, I only used GVim because it was the only version of Vim I could run from a flash drive. [07:26] (At school) [07:27] I'm open to suggestions for replacing it [07:27] tabs and open file menu are probably the only reasons why I prefer gvim over regular vim [07:30] oh and sometimes I use a menu action for splitting the window because I don't remember the corresponding vim command [07:33] makinen: ask vimuser @ #librespeech [07:33] im not up to speed on vim, i use emacs [07:33] at least, now i do [07:33] i'm intending to practice vim soon tho [07:37] hi guys [07:38] Hi. [07:38] I am having trouble dual-booting Kubuntu 16.04 alongside Windows 10. I installed Kubuntu 16.04 maybe a month ago and the installation went fine, but now, after the partitioning screen, just as the installation is actually starting, it tells me it can't unmount /cdrom. [07:38] Has anyone else encountered something similar? [07:59] how could I delete widget from command line [08:00] I found how to do it in kde 4 http://askubuntu.com/questions/171119/how-to-control-kde-4-9-0-plasma-widgets-from-command-line [08:01] but it doesnt work in kde 5 [08:04] plasma config files have moved to ~/.config/ in plasma 5 [08:46] how can I replace kwin with something else? [08:50] good morning. any idea when kmail 5.2.x will be available in xenial backports? this khtml/kmail bug which prevents the rendering of inline images is very annoying :-) [09:20] makinen: go into "standard programs" and set a different window manager [09:21] why anyone runs plasma without kwin however boggles the mind [09:22] there is no good tiling support in kwin :(/ [09:27] I can't find "standard programs" settings is it in system settings? [09:30] makinen: hmmm, I just search in krunner [09:31] it won [09:32] it won't find it either [09:40] makinen: /usr/bin/kcmshell5 componentchooser [09:50] hateball: thx can I replace kwin without logging out? [09:58] makinen: well you can run whateverWM --replace most likely [10:04] 'kcmshell5 componentchooser' in terminal should get you to http://i.imgur.com/wF8sBEO.png [10:08] Hi [10:09] Anyone know how to launch the kubuntu desktop on a vps? [10:11] I restarted it but I'm not sure if awesome was running instead of kwin :p [10:12] maybe I just fix some bugs in the tiling script [10:46] hi guys, i'm here for the third time since yesterday... i haven't managed to fix kubuntu 16.04 installation issues yet [10:46] Anyone here? [10:46] smusic: What are your issues? [10:47] hateball: As soon as I click Install Now (after choosing partition scheme), I get an error that /cdrom cannot be unmounted. I am installing from a USB stick. [10:47] Apparently, one of the existing (Windows) partitions is mounted at /cdrom. [10:47] I have no idea why. [10:49] smusic: oh so it's a dualboot? not touched that in a decade+ so I dont really have any idea [10:50] smusic: tried searching launchpad? [10:50] Yeah, I've tried googleing, no luck. I was able to find that other people have had the issue, but their workarounds proved ineffective. [10:51] smusic: and the windows os is properly shut off and not left hibernating? [10:51] The weirdest part is that I've already installed Kubuntu 16.04 about a month ago, and it worked. [10:51] I remember someone talking about that causing trouble [10:51] Yup. I've had multiple distros before this. [10:53] Why does Kubuntu LiveCD mount existing partitions? [10:54] Well, it mounted only of the existing partitions. [10:56] hi folks === soul is now known as Guest2382 [11:12] Hiyas all === acheron_uk is now known as acheronuk === chinmoy_ is now known as chinmoy [12:07] hello.. [12:07] it there any plans for Qt 5.6.1 on Kubuntu 16.04 via PPA? [12:09] I'm waiting for the multi monitor fix to finally jump on the Plasma5 bus [12:13] i have just started wirting a patch for a bug in plasma. will anyone tell me what should be my course of action after i have completed coding the patch ? [12:14] chinmoy: good man (sorry not sure of the process), thanks for working on KDE [12:15] I would guess step 1. is to get a KDE Identity: https://identity.kde.org/ [12:15] mparillo: well i think i have completed step 1. [12:16] Step 2 is to join #kde-devel and #plasma and ask there. [12:16] ok :p [12:17] If the bug has a number on bugs.kde.org, I would offer your patch there, and reference it in the channels. [12:17] i was thinking whether there are some general steps one must follow after writing a patch. === chinmoy_ is now known as chinmoy [12:47] Hey. What is the GUI in kubuntu called? Is it KDE or Plasma? What is Plasma in relationship to KDE? [12:48] !plasma [12:48] !plasma [12:48] !info plasma [12:48] Package plasma does not exist in xenial [12:49] !plasma-desktop [12:49] !info plasma-desktop [12:49] plasma-desktop (source: plasma-desktop): Tools and widgets for the desktop. In component universe, is optional. Version 4:5.5.5-0ubuntu1 (xenial), package size 1575 kB, installed size 7751 kB [12:49] optional? [12:52] think the bot info needs some updating [12:53] BluesKaj: why do you say that? [12:54] try installing the OS without plasma [12:55] So what is Plasma? [12:56] irctc370, https://www.kde.org/workspaces/plasmadesktop/ [12:58] Yeah, I kind of understand that it's the GUI, but what is KDE then? [12:59] And I can also read about that on wikipedia or whatever, but I still don't really understand the difference [13:00] KDE is a framework including Plasma, under-the-hood engines for various important things and libraries for programs [13:01] irctc370: plasma is the name of the desktop user interface [13:01] irctc370: programs can be written using KDE libraries, and they are called KDE programs [13:01] Ok, so KDE without Plasma is just a cli? [13:01] "just" [13:01] irctc370: you can use KDE in the CLI yes [13:01] KDE without Plasma still involves things like KWin [13:02] kwin is the window manager [13:02] but it's not just a cli [13:02] plasma is the panel and desktop widgets [13:02] Does Plasma run on top of kwin? [13:03] more like within [13:03] BluesKaj: the bot is not specific to Kubuntu. None of the desktop packages are required. iirc, only things that are part of the base install, like bash, are required [13:05] Can I start plasma from xubuntu? I have installed kubuntu-desktop from apt-get. [13:05] Pici, yeah , but kubuntu is going in a different direction than ubuntu , think some of the info should be more specific to kubuntu in the kubuntu chat..it's confusing otherwise [13:06] on 16.04 how do I (1) get rid of a note on my desktop, (2) get the notes applet to stop making notes when I middle click the desktop? [13:07] BluesKaj: as long as it uses the same ubuntu repositories, I can't tell it to do otherwise. [13:09] Pici, yeah that's an unfortunate setup, the flavours should have their info db [13:09] own info db [13:18] answer: right click the non-existant "titlebar" on the note to get the option to close it, lock widgets on the desktop to stop the middle click behavior === aektzim is now known as jimarvan === kubuntu is now known as Guest52968 [14:00] I'm having trouble with akonadi and its related packages. I'm thinking its a patch problem with Kubuntu because it is using some weird switches when it calls mysql as it starts. So how do you report such a bug? [14:54] I was browsing the KDE Configuration and I see a choice for the Renedering backend: XRender, OpenGL.. which one is faster? [14:57] elezium, usually OpenGL, but that depends on your gpu capabilities [14:58] nvidia 970 [14:58] openGL, I believe? [14:58] yup [14:58] Thanks sir. [14:58] Another one.. I can't find where the ctrl-f9 is mapped.. any clue? [14:59] that card should handle 3.1 [14:59] k. I just swtiched to 3 1.. [15:00] elezium, no idea about ctl+ F9 [15:00] haa! found the f9! [15:00] does nothing here, it's not mapped to anything [15:02] http://imgur.com/F9QYKa2 [15:03] elezium: system settings, shortcuts, global keyboard shortcuts, kde component system settings [15:04] buried way way down [15:04] ok , but i don't bother withg KB shortcuts [15:04] I don't bother much.. except when they overlap with the software I use ;) [15:04] not many anyway [15:04] * rattking <3's keyboard short cuts [15:05] I just use the basics one, really. [15:06] but Ctrl-f9 = Make in IntelliJ so. === solomongrey is now known as solomongrey_ === solomongrey_ is now known as solomongrey === akaisora__ is now known as akaisora [15:12] 这是什么？怎么象聊天室？ [15:13] ？？？ [15:59] Hello. I have a problem. I've recently installed Kubuntu 16.04 on a laptop but forgot my password so I went into the Greb-menu to get into the root-console to set a new password (which seemed to work). But when I tried to enter the password on the graphical login-screen, the login-button becomes greyed out (every button as it seems), I can't reboot or relog and the mouse cursor turns to something resembling [15:59] an X. [15:59] I'm not sure if it's related to the password change, but the last time I used the laptop (before the password-change) I was able to log in without problems. === hexagone_ is now known as hexagone === toscalix_ is now known as toscalix === kubuntu is now known as Guest67352 [16:38] If I choose guided installation and select my disk, it said the partiation table on another disk will be changed as well, why is that_ [16:38] It isnt listing that disk as going to be formatte [16:38] d [16:39] http://i.imgur.com/sC6myV1.jpg [16:40] !vivid [16:40] Ubuntu 15.04 (Vivid Vervet) was the 22nd release of Ubuntu.

If I switch between apps and start typing it takes sometimes up to 7 s to see the written context. could it be that there is something wrong with the task switcher? I am using Cover Switch. [20:53] this is happening for example switching from evolution to calligra sheets [20:55] I hope not but could it be that switching between QT and GTK apps that there is a time penalty. The typed text doesnt get lost it appears but very late. [21:17] hmmm could be also plank's fault. [21:46] after upgrading from kubuntu 14.10 to 15.04 the plasma login screen won't let me change the login account. how do i change the default account on the plasma login screen?
