abhishekis there any way to get kde 5.6.95 on kubuntu 16.04?03:52
=== hemanth is now known as hemanth_savasere
soeeabhishek: no04:29
soeeabhishek: but you can try Neon devstable version04:29
abhisheksoee, neon is not supported on kubuntu.( Looking at their website).04:29
soeewell it is based on Ubuntu 16.04 same as Kubuntu :)04:30
soeebut 5.7 Beta isn't that stable as i thught, i tried it yesterday04:30
abhisheksoee, thanks! I am a new user to ubuntu so I am not so inclined. When is the release of kde via backports expected, any ideas?04:31
soeeThere is not eta. Main blocker is Qt 5.6.1 that is required for Plasma 5.7 and ubuntu 16.04 hs 5.5.104:32
soee5.6.1 isn't even in Yakkety yet04:32
abhisheksoee, I think 16.10 may have 5.7 someone mentioned here before. Normally, after much time is the new kde available via backports after an release.04:34
abhishekafter *how much04:34
soeeyes 16.10 will have it04:35
soeebut i just said it hasn't yet :)04:35

lordievaderGood morning.07:45
SmurphyYo07:50
lordievaderHey Smurphy, how are you?07:50
Smurphyohf. Lots to do - apart from that, fine :)07:51
SmurphyHope that is valid for you too ;)07:51
lordievaderYeah, seems about applicable ;)07:54
SmurphyCool :)07:54
SmurphyOK - will go and finish the scrap-booking environment for my wife. Was her Birthday present. Have mounted all the 6 Halogene spots for light, and need to electrify all that now.07:55
lordievaderGood luck ;)07:56
SmurphyDone. :) Just had to finalise it. Cables and stuff.08:06
ikmaakHi, i am having an issue after upgrading 14.04 -> 16.04, the current playing track in Amarok keeps flashing in the playlist. I have looked with #amarok, but got advised this would likely be in  Plasma/KWin. Could someone point me in the right direction?08:10
ikmaakanyone present today?08:41
lordievaderProbably many... but that doesn't mean we know...08:43
lordievaderHowever #plasma might be able to help.08:43
ikmaaklordievader: still great to know someone saw the issue :)08:44
ikmaakI will try there too :)08:44
QenxinI had to reinstall 12.04 LTS on my laptop.  I tried to download plasmoids and desktop but get error "Plasma Desktop Shell Add-On Installer Unknown Open Collaboration Service API error. (0)" I cannot find through search engine a solution.  Is there a way to fix this?10:44
Qenxincorrection -->download plasmoids and desktop wallpapers10:46
hateballMight be those services have dropped support for an old release such as 12.0410:46
hateballQenxin: Did you fully update it after installing?10:46
Qenxinhateball:  yes. I ran update and upgrade.10:47
hateballhmmm, going to kde-look.org manually... it looks all borked10:49
Qenxinhateball: Konsole after upgrade reads: 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.  What is borked?10:49
hateballQenxin: yeah it aint working in 16.04 either10:49
hateballQenxin: fetching plasmoids and stuff using the builtin stuff10:50
hateballsomeone broke this10:50
hateballQenxin: http://forum.opendesktop.org/t/welcome-to-opendesktop-org/810:50
hateball"One of the biggest transitions will be kde-look.org, which will take the most time, since OD resources are tightly integrated into Plasma's GHNS service. The whole transition could take up to another 12-15 weeks."10:51
Qenxinhateball: Thank you.  I feared I done something wrong on this end.  I choose a bad timing to reinstall.  Thankfully wallpapers and plasmoids i seek are not necessary for use.10:55
hateballQenxin: that said you may want to think about migrating to at least 14.04. 12.04 has less than year left10:55
Qenxinhateball: My laptop is old.  I tried 14.04 but it is too much for the laptop.  I like Plasma 5 -- a friend has it on his desktop.  Perhaps it will be a good reason to buy a new laptop.11:00
lordievaderHow old is old?11:00
Qenxinhateball:  It is almost 10 years.  It had Vista on it.11:02
lordievaderOh...11:03
lordievaderYeah, that is quite old.11:03
hateballImpressive it still works :D11:03
JohnDroidif it is that old maybe try an alternative like ubuntu-mate or lubuntu?11:04
JohnDroidwith a 16.04 release11:04
lordievaderOr Xubuntu.11:04
lordievaderYou could make a live-usb to try it out.11:04
QenxinIt has lasted very well.  Once I learned how to use Gimp, I was able to leave Photoshop and Illustrator behind not needing Vista anymore.  One other question, Rekonq is having many certificate errors. Is this normal?11:05
hateballWhat kind of errors?11:06
QenxinI will consider Xubuntu, but I am very fond of Amarok, Okular, and PIM.11:06
hateballQenxin: I'd raid the piggybank and get a new laptop that can run Plasma 5 before the alternatives ;p11:06
JohnDroidsure that's even a better option if you can afford it11:09
QenxinLol. This is like taking a car to the mechanic.  When i typed in "certificate errors" in search engine and brought them up Rekonq gave no errors.11:09
hateballQenxin: it can be outdated ca-certificates, dunno if those get updated on 12.0411:10
QenxinHere is the Rekonq error:  The server failed the authenticity check (www.kubuntuforums.net).  The certificate does not apply to the given host. The certificate is not signed by any trusted certificate authority11:14
hateballQenxin: yeah, so probably outdated ca certs then, as there is nothing wrong with the page11:18
hateballerrr... cert11:19
QenxinYes.  Pale Moon seems to not do that.  If there are package managerment people here maybe consider Pale Moon installer.  Thank you all for your help.  Kubuntu is a very fine OS with very good programs.11:20
hateballQenxin: I *think* rekonq uses the system certs, where other browsers like firefox use their own11:21
hateballand pale moon seems to be based off of that11:21
Qenxinhateball:  Thank you very much for helping.  Hopefully parts of the site will be up and running soon enough.11:25
Qenxinhateball: http://kde-apps.org/ is still active and can manually install them from there.11:49
Qenxinthem--> plasmoids11:50
hateballQenxin: yes11:53

bit0ok, I need codes for mp3, mp4. I do not know why dragon player don't play .mkv20:51
bit0I found this page. is it working? http://www.fiz-ix.com/2012/11/installing-media-codecs-for-mp3-wmv-wma-acc-mp4-m4a-dvd-quicktime-mov-and-flash-in-ubuntu/20:51
bpromptbit0:    for what kubuntu version again?20:52
acheronukmedibuntu repositories are gone AFAIK20:53
bit0lts20:53
bpromptbit0:    there are many lts, so  hmm which one?20:53
bit016.420:53
bpromptbit0:    don't need anything then, mplayer is already installed by default, and it comes with codecs for pretty much everything, including mkv and mp420:54
bpromptbit0:   what's the core issue you're having anyway?20:54
bpromptbit0:   you get sound but no video?20:54
bit0yes20:54
bit0I will try mplayer20:55
bpromptalrite... one sec, I assume youi're missing the phonon backend, is all20:55
bpromptbit0:    mplayer is installed by default, so, hold the mayo20:55
acheronuksmplayer and vlc work nicely here20:56
bit0cool, thanks20:56
bpromptwell, smplayer is just an mplayer frontend, and vlc comes with its own codecs20:56
acheronukI know dragonplayer used to have problems with some formats/codecs20:56
acheronukwell, I'm using smplayer with mpv, not mplayer, but that's another issue20:57
bpromptbit0:    try installing -> gstreamer0.10-x   <---    that should give kde a phonon backend for the kde apps to work with mplayer20:58
bpromptbit0:    sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-x   <--- if that helps20:59

allenwjonesHello23:14
allenwjonesI have recently installed Kubuntu 16.04 with 3 monitors in portrait mode. The wallpaper is displaying in landscape, overlapping to the adjacent monitors. After multiple reboots, it may align one or more of those screens, but intermittently forgets and revers to portrait.23:15
allenwjonesThis is with an NVidia card, 1 VGA, 1 DVI, 1 HDMI23:16
allenwjonesI have searched the forums, but perhaps I am not hitting on the correct keywords.. anyone here with experience in this area, or a better boolean ninja?23:17
