| Qenxin | Hello all. | 05:12 |
| acer11kubuntu | Hi, all - what is the best place to report issues with Kubuntu? Here, or elsewhere? I think the issues I am looking at are essentially bugs. | 05:51 |
| acer11kubuntu | At the very least, they are significant deficiencies, and they seem to be Plasma 5 specific. I never had the same issues on Plasma 4. | 05:51 |
| acer11kubuntu | I'm on Kubuntu 16.04 on a brand new Acer Cloudbook. It is a minimalist machine (2 GB RAM, 32 GB SSD), but should be sufficient. | 05:54 |
| acer11kubuntu | The issues I'm seeing don't seem to have anything to do with storage or memory, BTW. | 05:54 |
| hateball | acer11kubuntu: You could start by stating what issues you have | 06:03 |
| hateball | !bugs | acer11kubuntu if you are sure that it's actual bugs: | 06:04 |
| ubottu | acer11kubuntu if you are sure that it's actual bugs:: If you find a bug in Kubuntu, please follow the instructions at https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Bugs/Reporting to report the issue to the developers. | 06:04 |
| acer11kubuntu | Well, if I run anything that changes resolution while it runs (e.g., NJam game, or Grim Fandango, or many other games), it apparently rearranges my desktop icons in the background to 'fit' the temporary resolution, then they are all bollixed up when exiting the program. | 06:18 |
| acer11kubuntu | They're resized and rearranged, often overlapping each other, reduced to miniscule size or otherwise changed. Very frustrating, I often have to take 30-40 minutes to get them all back to normail. | 06:19 |
| acer11kubuntu | Happens whether desktop are locked or not. Effectively renders the machine practically unusable for me. | 06:20 |
| acer11kubuntu | desktop=desktop widgets | 06:21 |
| acer11kubuntu | As I said, Plasma 4 did NOT do this. I could run the game in question and after exiting, desktop is still the same. | 06:22 |
| acer11kubuntu | So, not sure if that's a 'bug', but it's definitely a significant deficiency in the desktop's behavior and really hurts usability (for me, but I can't be the only person who wants to play the occasional game on Linux). | 06:23 |
| === chinmoy_ is now known as chinmoy | ||
| hateball | acer11kubuntu: Oh, well maybe you could ask in #plasma before filing a bug | 06:28 |
| hateball | I dont use any desktop plasmoids at all, and I play all games in native res or windowed so can't say I've seen the behavior | 06:29 |
| acer11kubuntu | Thanks for the input! | 06:30 |
| chinmoy | hateball: it might sound silly but anyways what are plasmoids? | 06:31 |
| hateball | chinmoy: well things like "folder view" | 06:31 |
| hateball | chinmoy: "applets" | 06:31 |
| hateball | "thingamajigs" | 06:32 |
| hateball | the addons to display a clock, or cpu temp or whatever | 06:32 |
| chinmoy | hateball: now that made things clear..thanx:) | 06:33 |
| chinmoy | hateball: is it possible in plasma 5 to set wallpaper of the desktop directly from context menu of an image file? | 06:33 |
| hateball | chinmoy: Nothing by default | 06:34 |
| chinmoy | hateball: is there any plugin or commad line tool available? | 06:35 |
| hateball | chinmoy: afaik there is no proper way to set a wallpaper for plasma using cli | 06:36 |
| hateball | you can do ugly hacks like inserting the path to the image in the .plasmarc and then reloading plasmashell | 06:36 |
| chinmoy | so there isn't any proper development going on for this feature? | 06:38 |

| Aleksejs | Hey, I have a problem with kscreenlocker after plasma update. When I restart my PC I see a new lock screen which is buggy but works. But when I lock screen I see old lock screen which does nothing when I enter my password. I can't kill screen locker process, I can only log in as guest or hard reset a PC. But I can log in on tty. | 07:35 |

| yossarianuk | hi - is plasma 5.6.5 going to be in backports ? | 10:28 |
| acheronuk | think clivejo was looking to stage it | 10:32 |
| mparillo | It is already in staging for YY | 10:32 |
| yossarianuk | cool cheers | 10:33 |
| acheronuk | for xenial, hopefully soon | 10:33 |
| yossarianuk | yes, running xenial thanks | 10:34 |
| === cpaelzer_lunch is now known as cpaelzer | ||
| abhishek__ | will it ship with a new qt version? | 11:23 |
| acheronuk | abhishek__: what exactly? and which qt do you mean? | 11:24 |
| abhishek__ | qt 5.6, kde 5.7 requires that version. | 11:25 |
| acheronuk | in yakkety, hopefully yes, eventually. ubuntu devs are working on Qt 5.6 for that anyway | 11:28 |
| abhishek__ | what about xenial? | 11:29 |
| acheronuk | in xenial could be more tricky, as QT 5.6 backported may break things already in the main archive done with Qt 5.5 | 11:29 |
| === hay is now known as hay_ | ||
| abhishek__ | acheronuk yeah, kde 5.7 has some useful bug fixes. I was curious if it will be for xenial given the situation you mentioned. | 11:39 |
| acheronuk | abhishek__: I'm doing a test build of QT 5.6.1 in a ppa for xenial, to see what can be done with it and what breaks | 11:42 |
| acheronuk | that is as far as I know at the moment. | 11:42 |
| BluesKaj | Howdy all | 11:42 |
| abhishek__ | acheronuk, great, thanks. | 11:43 |
| acheronuk | you can try neon? they don't have to worry about breaking canonical's toys as much ;) | 11:44 |
| abhishek__ | Okay, will try. | 11:58 |
| acheronuk | that was a tentative suggestion rather than a recommendation. it's not for everyone, so read up on what's it's about before you do. | 12:00 |

| cuckoo | I just installed Kubuntu 16.04 on my desktop PC, but neither my USB mouse nor my USB keyboard are working. They did in the live mode... I tried a PS/2 keyboard and it is working, but not a PS/2 mouse. Any recommendation | 15:41 |
| cuckoo | recommendation | 15:41 |
| cuckoo | I just installed Kubuntu 16.04 on my desktop PC, but neither my USB Keyboard nor my USB mouse are working, although they did in the live mode... A PS/2 keyboard is working, but a PS/2 mouse. any suggestions? | 15:41 |
| cuckoo | I already tried updating my system | 15:42 |
| BluesKaj | try upgrading as well, cuckoo , also check input devices in systemsettings | 15:48 |
| bit0 | hi, does a program to delete metadates from pictures? | 15:51 |
| cuckoo | I tried upgrading as well, it didn´t help. And I also couldn´t find a solution in the system settings... | 15:52 |
| bit0 | of* | 15:52 |
| rattking | bit0: 'exiftool -all= foo.jpg' would remove all exif metadata | 15:54 |
| bit0 | is it a program? | 15:58 |
| rattking | yes in the libimage-exiftool-perl package | 15:59 |
| bit0 | I cannot find it on the store of kubuntu | 16:02 |
| lethu | bit0: do "sudo apt install libimage-exiftool-perl" | 16:03 |
| lethu | in aterminal | 16:04 |
| bit0 | already do it. | 16:06 |
| bit0 | how I lunch the program? | 16:06 |
| lethu | bit0: as rattking said, in a terminal enter "exiftool -all= foo.jpg" where foo is the name of your file | 16:07 |
| bit0 | ok, thanks | 16:08 |
| lethu | bit0: yw | 16:08 |
| bit0 | can I do the same with more than one file? | 16:10 |
| bit0 | at the same time | 16:10 |
| lethu | bit0: put all your files in the same location then replace "foo.jpg" by "*.jpg" | 16:11 |
| bit0 | ok | 16:12 |
| bit0 | is * the name of the folder? | 16:13 |
| lethu | bit0: * means whatever the files are named they shall be edited | 16:13 |
| bit0 | and so how I type it on the terminal, if my folder has the name Wallpapers | 16:15 |
| bit0 | I think, first I move to there with cd | 16:16 |
| lethu | bit0: the simplest way is to navigate to that folder in the terminal | 16:16 |
| bit0 | thank you | 16:16 |
| lethu | then enter the comand | 16:16 |
| lethu | bit0: np | 16:16 |
| bit0 | How I change my imput metod of the keyboard from English, to Spanish, cuz I have no accent mark | 16:23 |
| bit0 | right now | 16:23 |
| bit0 | ok, np. I am ok | 16:28 |
| viewer|61278 | Hi, does anybody know how to activate and configure the screensaver in kubuntu 16.04? | 16:29 |
| === thiago_ is now known as Guest35429 | ||
| Guest35429 | 8 | 16:38 |
| lethu | viewer|61278: System settings > Power management | 16:38 |
| viewer|61278 | Thank you, lethu, I do not have any screen saver options in the Power management dialogue, though... | 16:45 |
| lethu | viewer|61278: do you have a "Screen Energy Saving" option under "Energy Saving"? | 16:46 |
| viewer|61278 | Positive, but it only turns off the screen. I am looking for a way to enable either a slideshow or some animations when the screen-timeout occurs. | 16:48 |
| lethu | viewer|61278: then you should install xscreensaver then run its setup, it's an option among others | 16:50 |
| viewer|61278 | Thank you, lethu, that brought me much closer to what I want to do, but it produces several errors and still does not seem to have a slideshow of locally saved images as an option (unless I missed it). | 17:18 |
| lethu | viewer|61278: can you pastebin the errors | 17:19 |
| lethu | viewer|61278: as to the slideshow I wouldn't know, been a long while since I used xscreensaver | 17:20 |
| viewer|61278 | 1.: During installation (using apt-get install): "Warning: stopping snapd.service, but it can still be activated by: snapd.socket". When launching the screensaver for the first time, it posts (in a dialogue box):"Warning: The XScreenSaver daemon doesn't seem to be running on display "0". Launch it now?" Options are "Cancel" and "OK" | 17:26 |
| lethu | viewer|61278: you should chose "Ok" | 17:27 |
| viewer|61278 | Awesome. Thank you! You have been way more helpful than anything I found on the web about this issue! I don't understand why xscreensaver is not part of kde by default anymore. Thanks again! | 17:33 |
| lethu | viewer|61278: glad I could help | 17:33 |

| andreas_ | hi | 20:22 |
| ret2libc_ | hi. i'm using konsole with the Solarized Dark theme, but i'm noticing it's somehow weird. When I use `ls` the directories are not very different from normal files. the color seems almost the same. | 21:08 |
| AciD` | ok that's it | 22:22 |
| AciD` | I give up | 22:22 |
| AciD` | latest news in kubuntu world (after outputting ~500,000 lines of useless log in .xsession-errors every 2 hours !?), every now and then (approx. 10 seconds), my mouse cursor is positionned on top of the dolphin icon in the icon only taskbar. | 22:24 |
| AciD` | wtf | 22:24 |
| AciD` | a reboot did not solve that 'feature' | 22:24 |
| AciD` | seems like it's not the dolphin icon that my mouse cursor like, but just this specific coordinates (I removed said dolphin icon just to see if that was the source of the problem) | 22:26 |
| lethu | AciD`: which graphics card? | 22:29 |
| lethu | Amd or nVidia? | 22:29 |
| AciD` | lethu -> I haven't updated my driver for weeks, and this just started. Also, AMD open-source driver | 22:29 |
| lethu | AciD`: also which Kubuntu version? | 22:29 |
| AciD` | 16.04 | 22:29 |
| AciD` | with kubuntu-ppa backport | 22:29 |
| lethu | AciD`: maybe it's time to update your driver | 22:30 |
| AciD` | just like that? | 22:30 |
| AciD` | not really stable for a lts hum? | 22:31 |
| lethu | AciD`: see if it fixes the problem, maybe a kernel update broke the driver | 22:31 |
| AciD` | I did upgraded some package this morning, but I don't recall seeing any kernel related one | 22:32 |
| AciD` | and that was hours before seeing this bs | 22:32 |
| AciD` | I never ever saw a mouse problem like that, in decades, it's really, really weird | 22:33 |
| AciD` | oh my, I feel dumb | 22:33 |
| AciD` | .. | 22:33 |
| AciD` | the wind made my graphic tablet pen fall on top of said graphic tablet which was covered with a stack of sheet | 22:34 |
| AciD` | it still worked. | 22:34 |
| * AciD` hides in shame | 22:35 | |
| lethu | AciD`: I feel you | 22:35 |
| AciD` | well, I nuked some stuff during 'debugging' this, time to put those back in :x | 22:35 |
| lethu | :) | 22:36 |
| AciD` | ah, and of course the icon-only taskbar never picks up any application that do not already have a launcher in it | 22:36 |
| AciD` | oh well, no more dolphin launcher in that... | 22:36 |
| ret2libc | guys don't you usually use solarized theme in konsole? it looks really bad on my installation, with colors for directory that are the same as normal files :( does this happen to anyone else? on fedora it works great :( | 22:40 |
