[00:22] <Fritigern> So I have FINALLY found someting that works. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dolphin/+bug/1505014/comments/21 suggested making a symlink and I now have video thumbnails.
[00:32] <jancho> test
[00:32] <Fritigern> Failed
[01:01] <valorie> Fritigern: if the bug isn't reported on bugs.kde.org, it is unclear that devels will see it
[01:02] <valorie> otoh, if you point that out to devels (#kubuntu-devel) perhaps they can make the symlink happen in the packaging
[01:02] <valorie> now is the time to do that, well before release
[01:03] <valorie> multimedia devels are added to the CC list, but not Kubuntu devels
[01:04] <Fritigern> Found someting on the kde bugtracker: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=351913
[01:04] <valorie> oh good
[01:05] <valorie> so it just hasn't hit yet
[01:05] <valorie> good to hear
[01:05] <valorie> thanks for doing that research, Fritigern
[01:05] <Fritigern> No. It was marked as fixed, but it obviously is not
[01:06] <Fritigern> See comment #22 and further
[01:06] <valorie> fixed in master doesn't mean fix-released-in-kubuntu
[01:13] <Fritigern> It would appear that the bug was marked as fixed last year, around September. It's safe to assume that after (almost) a year, the fix would have hit the Kubuntu repos. Or at least in proposed, which I have enabled too.
[03:20] <Fritigern> OMG valorie. Do you remember me coming in here MONTHS ago, asking about font previews not working in Dolphin? Well, it had never worked, not even after installing the backports PPA which should have pulled in the fix for the fonts not previewing.
[03:21] <Fritigern> Well, making those symlinks also got THAT working!
[03:21]  * Fritigern oes a little dance
[03:25] <abhishek> hi guys!
[03:25] <abhishek> I am using kde 5.6.4 and kubuntu 16.04.
[03:25] <abhishek> Question: On right-clicking on an icon in the icon-manager I can see the recent open documents(http://imgur.com/rciPHTG). But when I have launched the application, right-clicking gives me options like this(http://imgur.com/erv4t5V). How can use recent documents after launching an application?
[03:26] <abhishek> Any suggestions?
[03:30] <Fritigern> I'm sorry, I am afraid that I won;t be of much use, but did you look in the File menu of the application yet? File => Recent Documents...
[03:31] <Fritigern> Could also be called "Open recent..." as in the case of Kate
[04:09] <uberdub> how do i enable 3rd party non free in 16.04?
[04:16] <uberdub> nm
[04:17] <uberdub> looks like its still getting sources from wily?
[04:29] <valorie> Fritigern: I do remember. Please add a note on that LP bug about that. Seems we need to adjust our packaging perhaps
[04:49] <Fritigern> valorie: Comment added to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dolphin/+bug/1505014/ :-)
[04:54] <valorie> thanks, Fritigern
[05:42] <xrfang> how to block certain package in the standard library? e.g. I installed the lazarus-1.6 package downloaded from the official site, and it lacks some dependencies. when I do apt-get install -f , the system try to override my lazarus with the repo's version. I don't want that.
[05:43] <hateball> xrfang: apt-mark hold
[05:46] <dellhem> Hey. My PC can't set the correct time, or date. Isn't there an NTP daemon installed by default?
[05:48] <xrfang> hateball: hold what? you mean, hold my own installed (but broken) package, right?
[05:48] <hateball> xrfang: yes, whatever package it is you want to keep from upgrading
[05:49] <xrfang> ok... but I am also wondering, the official deb package is version 1.6, while the one in the repo is also 1.6, WHY apt think the repo's version is newer?
[06:01] <dellhem> Hey! My PC won't wake from suspend when my Logitech Unifying Receiver is connected. Could someone with one try to suspend and wake?
[06:33] <veronica__> i installed new atheros dual band,  and upgraded to 16.04 wifi wont enable
[06:34] <veronica__> please help
[06:44] <MoofDeep> I can't install kubuntu for some reason
[06:45] <MoofDeep> never mind
[06:45] <MoofDeep> don't know why, but it suddenly worked
[07:00] <lordievader> Good morning.
[07:18] <maxg> Hi. I'm trying to switch from kmail to mutt
[07:19] <maxg> It's hard to configure mutt as good as kmail is at default
[07:19] <maxg> congratulations :-)
[07:19] <maxg> however, I would like to disable the automatic mail notifications, since they also apply my filter.
[07:20] <maxg> Any ideas?
[07:21] <veronica__> been crickets so far
[08:31] <Arcaire_> Hiya, is there any reason the 16.04 Kubuntu installer transcends the definition of "broken"?
[08:31] <Arcaire_> Instead of a cool boot to installer, I boot to a segfault.
[08:32] <Arcaire_> Plasma and krunner both segfault almost instantly. I don't really think my hardware is that obscure.
[08:33] <Arcaire_> It's a current gen Intel CPU and a current gen Nvidia GPU.
[10:36] <loma> hello :)
[10:38] <loma> I have an problem on kubuntu16.04 that when i login with ldap, and it is my first login, nothing is copied from skel. With SSH it is working fine. Can anyone say we how KDE setup an new first userlogin? Thanks a lot.

[12:05] <hegemon8> Hi to All.
[12:06] <BluesKaj> Heyas all
[12:07] <hegemon8> Hey there BluesKaj:)
[12:07] <BluesKaj> Hi hegemon8
[12:07] <hegemon8> Blue, maybe You'd know...
[12:08] <hegemon8> I've just successfully converted a guy to Kubuntu from his win 7, and all grand till he didn't have to connect his Three 3g usb dongle to connect to net (irish mobile net provider)
[12:09] <hegemon8> and i've added it in net manager, but nothing...
[12:09] <hegemon8> used to it all worked when used it myself years from now
[12:13] <BluesKaj> hegemon8:  what's the actual chip in the dongle, lspci | grep -i net
[12:14] <hegemon8> will tell You after reboot i've just did (sry, just a sec :) )
[12:15] <hegemon8> at least it boots fast now. (packard Bell Easy Note TE laptop)
[12:17] <hegemon8> shows only ethernet and wifi
[12:17] <hegemon8> both Qualcomm Atheros
[12:18] <hegemon8> but lsusb shows Huawei E220
[12:18] <BluesKaj> yes of course lsusb
[12:18] <hegemon8> HSDPA modem /E230/E270E870
[12:20] <hegemon8> can't freaking believe it, got working on its own
[12:20] <hegemon8> and believe me, i've tried  restarts :)
[12:20] <hegemon8> will check if works after reboot again :)
[12:22] <hegemon8> it must saw via webcam i'm on irc on other laptop, take that NSA ;) ^^
[12:24] <BluesKaj> hegemon8: sudo rmmod usb-storage, then, sudo modprobe usbserial vendor=0x12d1 product=0x1003,  then, remove the device and re-attach it
[12:26] <hegemon8> will do, just wii upgrade first, flash was blocking apt with its 'unfinished business" updating
[12:27] <hegemon8> thanks for that Blue. Btw, it didn't appear on the list of networks, now i see three ireland. but its all when booting with dongle plugged in
[12:28] <hegemon8> will try after update and reboot to attach it after boot to see if that has anything to do with it
[12:29] <hegemon8> i was surprised, cause it worked fine for friends in previous releases, as well as for me long time from now.
[12:30] <hegemon8> was googling, but guys had different issues like pin popups etc, and other posts were like from before electricity era ;)
[12:33] <hegemon8> never liked packard bells :) had to turn off all effects cause screen tearing flickering when on (amd radeonhd 7310) lately radeon users in 16.04 aren't the luckiest ones...

[16:01] <Anonymes> Hi
[16:24] <Nani_Dragon> hello Anonymes
[16:25] <Anonymes> Hello
[16:25] <Anonymes> Who have 16.04 kubuntu ?
[16:26] <genii> Anonymes: It's better if you just ask your actual question regarding 16.04
[16:29] <Anonymes> Okey, sombody after install Kubuntu 16.04 LTS have problem with update ? I talking about problem with translations packages.
[16:32] <Nani_Dragon> what do you mean, Anonymes? The package is actually not installing, or you cant locate it?
[16:38] <Anonymes> Package can't update because when I want do this i see error about temporary translation from "pl.archive.ubuntu.com".
[16:53] <Anonymes> And what I should do ?
[16:59] <marco-parillo> Anonymes: I assume you are in Poland?
[17:00] <Anonymes> Yes
[17:02] <marco-parillo> Perhaps there is a temporary problem with the Polish Archive. If you can change your sources to point to another near-by country that could help identify the problem?
[17:04] <marco-parillo> You could copy /etc/apt/sources.list for safekeeping and edit it. Or try https://repogen.simplylinux.ch/
[17:35] <soul_> Do you know how can I make windows appear in the middle of the screen?
[17:37] <soee> soul_: you can set their izes and positions
[17:37] <soee> *sizes
[17:38] <soee> right click on window decoration -> More Actions -> Additional Window Window/App Settings
[17:40] <varaindemian> will kubuntu 16.04 get stuck with the same version of kde until the distro gets upgraded to 17.?
[17:52] <soul_> soee: but I want to set it for all windows. I just want when  I open a new window, make it appear in the middle
[17:54] <Dragnslcr> Settings -> Window Management -> Window Behavior -> Advanced
[17:54] <soee> try System Settings -> Windows Behaviour -> [Advanced] -> Placement and select 'centered'
[17:55] <acheronuk> soul_: In system settings http://i.imgur.com/LPJxdtG.png
[17:55] <acheronuk> soee: snap
[17:55] <soee> :D
[17:58] <varaindemian> does 16.04 gets direct updates for plasma?
[17:58] <varaindemian> without addin a ppa?
[18:01] <acheronuk> varaindemian: not in the near future, AFAIK. Most people are finding the ppa backports to be quite stable.
[18:03] <soul_> Dragnslcr: IT WORKS!!! :DD THANKS!!
[18:03] <soul_> soee: thank you too :)
[18:04] <varaindemian> acheronuk: so I get stuck with the same plasma version for 6 moths or something?
[18:05] <soee> on LTS without backports even till teh LTS eol and you switch to next version
[18:07] <benz0> Hey folks, I'm having trouble with getting rid of openjdk. I'd like to remove it entirely but there are unmet dependencies and I haven't been able to figure out how to resolve them.
[18:07] <varaindemian> soee: ok bakc to arch
[18:07] <benz0> I was hoping someone here could point me in the right direction, the forums haven't been helpful
[18:12] <marco-parillo> varaindemian: With Backports, your Plasma version will get upgraded. However, Kubuntu shares Qt with all the other *buntus, so it is possible it may not get upgraded past the end of the 5.6 series.
[18:13] <marco-parillo> I am not certain the Qt question has been settled one way or the other.
[18:15] <varaindemian> marco-parillo: can i backport that too?
[18:16] <varaindemian> marco-parillo: I am not sure I understand how .buntu actually works.
[18:16] <varaindemian> Some packages get updates and some get updates only if you add the ppa's?
[18:18] <marco-parillo> Generally Backports are  PPAs (think like the AUR, not part of the main repos), and the Kubuntu team uses them to upgrade large pieces of KDE software that might be difficult to do in the main archive. Here is a recent example: http://wire.kubuntu.org/?p=950
[18:19] <marco-parillo> They are not generally used on a package-by-package basis. Ususally for an entire release of KDE software, like Plasma, and maybe Frameworks or Applications.
[18:23] <marco-parillo> So, most normal users do not backport software, they install the backports PPA, and then upgrade normally.
[18:24] <acheronuk> kubuntu LTS is even used by some businesses/institutions for their desktop deployment, so tracking of major desktop version upgrades in the main archive with that hassle and risk is not desirable
[18:26] <acheronuk> backports and stable update ppas allow updates for those that want them
[18:28] <benz0> if anyone is willing/able to help out with a goofy issue getting rid of icedtea I'd really appreciate the help
[18:28] <plusEV> hi, i have messed up my bottom panel and can not configure it. It is jsut a black empty bar. How can I access the setting of this bar without being able to click on it?
[18:29] <plusEV> 16.04
[18:33] <acheronuk> plusEV: cannot right click to get panel menu?
[18:34] <varaindemian> acheronuk: from my understanding, De is part of the core system and its  stability it is crucial therefore it won't get updates as often as other packages that are not part of the core
[18:34] <varaindemian> right?
[18:35] <acheronuk> benz0: that may be hard to do via IRC, but what is the problem?
[18:35] <plusEV> acheronuk: nope
[18:36] <benz0> @acheronuk: it's basically broken apt-get upgrade. I get this: The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[18:36] <benz0>  icedtea-7-plugin : Depends: icedtea-netx (= 1.5.3-0ubuntu0.14.04.1) but it is not installed
[18:36] <benz0> E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.
[18:36] <benz0> but using -f results in this: Errors were encountered while processing:
[18:36] <benz0>  /var/cache/apt/archives/icedtea-netx_1.5.3-0ubuntu0.14.04.1_amd64.deb
[18:36] <benz0> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[18:36] <acheronuk> plusEV: and no change if logging out/in again or restarting plasma?
[18:36] <plusEV> acheronuk: I put some network and resource monitor widget by my clock and rebooted. That messed it up
[18:37] <plusEV> acheronuk: I have rebooted but how do I restart plasma?
[18:37] <acheronuk> rebooting would restart plasma anyway, so probably not going to help
[18:38] <plusEV> right
[18:38] <acheronuk> plusEV: you could reset plasma if you haven't got a highly customised desktop you don't want to lose
[18:39] <acheronuk> or you could try to edit the plasma config files to remove the faulty containment/panel
[18:40] <plusEV> acheronuk: I would like to try the second option first. Were is teh file to edit? :)
[18:41] <acheronuk> for plasma 5, in ~/.config/
[18:42] <acheronuk> plasmashellrc and/or plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc I think
[18:43] <acheronuk> sadly they ten not to be formatted in a very friendly/clear way, so can be hard to work out which is the part that needs removing
[18:44] <plusEV> acheronuk: a f... it. how do I reset to default?
[18:45] <plusEV> my system seems to have more issues here. want to fix that panel so I can keep working on other stuff
[18:48] <Smurphy> What a crap.
[18:48] <Smurphy> Just upgraded my 15.10 to 16.04 - actually - that crap updated has upgraded my system to yakety 16.10.
[18:48] <Smurphy> And that my work system.
[18:49] <Smurphy> My /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades has: Prompt=lts set....
[18:50] <acheronuk> plusEV: backing up and removing any plasma rc file in that directory, then logging out and in again should do it if I recall. default config will be regenerated
[18:52] <Smurphy> Hmmm. Will have to re-install. Craptacular shit. Hate it when that happens.
[18:54] <dax> what command did you run to upgrade?
[18:55] <genii> Probably d-r-u -d
[18:55] <dax> that was my assumption, yes.
[18:55] <genii> ( if it went to 16.10 )
[18:56] <dax> do-release-upgrade really needs more prompting
[18:56] <dax> "You picked -d at the command-line. If you're not planning on going from XX.YY to ZZ.AA, you should stop pasting random commands off the internet and not use the -d option."
[19:04] <plusEV> acheronuk: yea that worked. back to basics.
[19:04] <plusEV> ty
[19:09] <Smurphy> do-release-upgrade
[19:09] <Smurphy> Only there were dependency issues and some of the commands crashed.
[19:10] <Smurphy> It asked me if I wanted to report the problem, I said no and to continue and ignore that issue in future.
[19:10] <Smurphy> I'd fix it after manually (What In usually do).
[19:11] <Smurphy> What was the tool to create a boot-stick ? USB boot creator ?
[19:12] <Smurphy> startup disk creatore :D
[19:15] <Smurphy> I'll use the uefi boot this time.
[19:22] <genii> No special tools should be required anymore, they are hybrid images which can be raw copied to a USB stick
[19:22] <genii> ( with dd or windows equivalent )
[19:40] <Smurphy> genii: I'll try it if it doesn't work.
[19:40] <Smurphy> thx.
[19:44] <genii> !windd
[19:45] <genii> Hm

[21:11] <noobandnoober> hi
[21:11] <noobandnoober> is there a way to go from Debian Jessie to Kubuntu without reinstalling everything?
[21:11] <dax> no.
[21:12] <dax> (and trying to do so will almost certainly not work and will end up with an unsupportable hybrid of debian and kubuntu that neither will support)
[21:13] <bprompt> noobandnoober:    hmmm what do you mean?  as in.... to just change kde versions?   I mean, you can probably just installed a newer version of kde in Jessie, don't need kubuntu for that
[21:13] <bprompt> noobandnoober:  but they'd be two distributions, and their differences would warrant a reinstall
[21:14] <noobandnoober> thanks

[23:01] <soul> Hmm, let me take an screenshot
[23:02] <lethu> soul: sure
[23:03] <soul> Oh

[23:10] <lethu> soul: could you upload it somewhere else, my browsers won't let me access the site
[23:10] <soul> ok
[23:11] <soul> lethu: http://i.imgur.com/KKP2ZpI.jpg
[23:13] <lethu> soul: what GPU have you got?
[23:15] <soul> lethu: Nvidia 870M and Intel HD 4600
[23:16] <lethu> so did this every happen in another OS?
[23:16] <lethu> soul:
[23:16] <soul> No
[23:16] <soul> Only in this new installation
[23:17] <soul> I had it working perfectly 1 hour ago, in my older Kubuntu
[23:17] <lethu> soul: what drivers have you installed?
[23:17] <soul> 15 or 14
[23:17] <soul> lethu: Now or in the past? In the past I can't remember...
[23:17] <lethu> soul: in the past
[23:18] <lethu> when it was working ok
[23:18] <lethu> soul: can you go to system settings then diqplay?
[23:18] <lethu> display*
[23:18] <soul> yes
[23:19] <lethu> soul: anything suspicious there?
[23:19] <soul> lethu: and now? :)

[23:20] <soul> I already tried after asking, lethu x)
[23:20] <lethu> soul: ok, have you moved to a new kernel recently?
[23:22] <soul> One hour ago I had Kubuntu 15 and everything worked (plug and play). Today, I decided to move on and install Kubuntu 16. After the installation, I detected those errors in the new installation. That's what I did, lethu.
[23:24] <lethu> soul: try "sudo apt remove [whatever driver]" then "sudo apt purge [same thing]" then "sudo apt install [same thing]"
[23:24] <soul> I don't know what driver, lethu
[23:24] <lethu> do you have synaptics installed?
[23:25] <lethu> soul:
[23:26] <lethu> soul: also it may sound dumb, but unplug your cable, blow on it thenreplug it
[23:26] <soul> let me check
[23:26] <soul> ok
