| YankDownUnder | bunjee: So you're not "satisfied" with just making use of "sudo" to accomplish "root" tasks? | 02:33 |
| bunjee | can I do root tasks without the "su"? | 02:34 |
| YankDownUnder | bunjee: Yes, mate...by using "sudo" - which should already be setup for you automagically by the system when you installed it...in a terminal, type: "man sudo" => amazing simple means by which to do "root" things... | 02:35 |

| pragomer_1 | hi. I get no avi or mkv preview in dolphin under kubuntu 16.04. I activated it in dolphins settings, put up the max size for videos. and I installed ffmpegthumbs and ffmpegthumbnailer and also kffmpegthumbnailer. | 08:10 |
| pragomer_1 | any ideas? | 08:10 |
| soee | pragomer_1: hiho | 08:18 |
| soee | there was but that is fixed in apps 16.04.2 i think | 08:19 |
| soee | so it should work when we release those via Kubuntu backports | 08:19 |
| soee | there is also workaround if you want it "noe" | 08:19 |
| soee | *now | 08:19 |
| soee | there was bug | 08:19 |
| soee | pragomer_1: you can execute this command to make it works: sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/plugins/* /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/plugins/ | 08:21 |
| pragomer_1 | mm.. now sounds good :-) | 08:35 |
| pragomer_1 | wow... that linking worked.. thank you so so much for this fast and simple solution :-) | 08:36 |
| pragomer_1 | kubuntu really rocks *thumbsup* | 08:45 |
| soee | also, do you have backports ppa enabled ? | 08:47 |
| pragomer_1 | mm.. dont have any backports.. I heard using backports is not really recommend.. dont know if that is right.. | 08:49 |
| hateball | pragomer_1: in the case of 16.04, backports is kinda needed for a more stable experience | 08:53 |
| pragomer_1 | oh ok.. so.. sure.. I can try that.. how to do that? I mean.. kubuntu really had some stability problems in the past.. anyway.. I switched from ubuntu unity / gnome to kubuntu since 15.10.. and I really like it.. | 08:55 |
| pragomer_1 | so if a backport will stable it more.. lets go | 08:55 |
| pragomer_1 | how to do that? | 08:55 |
| pragomer_1 | plasmashell --version shows me 5.5.5 | 08:56 |
| soee | sudo apt-add-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports | 08:56 |
| soee | sudo apt update | 08:56 |
| soee | sudo apt full-upgrade | 08:56 |
| pragomer_1 | what version will i get then? | 08:56 |
| soee | http://kubuntu.org/news/plasma-5-6-5-and-frameworks-5-23-now-in-backports-for-kubuntu-16-04/ | 08:56 |
| pragomer_1 | and is only the kde desktop upgraded but also apps? | 08:57 |
| soee | Apps 16.05 aren't yet in backports | 08:57 |
| soee | *16.04 | 08:57 |
| pragomer_1 | and I wont get some "new stability" problems, you are sure? ;-) | 08:57 |
| soee | nope | 08:58 |
| pragomer_1 | ok, then I try it here on my productive system.. | 08:58 |
| pragomer_1 | will give you a feedback.. | 08:58 |
| soee | ok :) | 08:58 |

| paranoidabhi | I noticed this weird issue in kde 5.6.5(kubuntu 16.04). Please have a look https://bugs.launchpad.net/variety/+bug/1589790 | 14:03 |

| rpg | Apologies for stupid question: but why is it that Discover never finds any packages when I use the search box? | 14:48 |
| rpg | e.g. "aptitude search jenkins" finds about 2 dozen packages, but typing "jenkins" into discover finds nothing. | 14:49 |
| marco-parillo | Muon Discover is more of an app store. Regular old Muon is a package manager. So packages that are not considered Apps (including missing AppStream data (I think)) are not searchable in Muon Discover. | 14:53 |
| rpg | marco-parillo: Thanks! | 14:55 |
| rpg | But.... There's no muon in the kubuntu menus, only Discover! | 14:55 |
| akik | rpg: plasma-discover has been broken since 16.04 release | 14:56 |
| rpg | Also, AFAICT muon doesn't exist. Or at least typing "muon" at the search bar gives me nothing. | 14:57 |
| marco-parillo | Right, you need to sudo apt update && sudo apt install muon -y | 14:57 |
| rpg | I can use aptitude, but this seems really stupid. | 14:57 |
| soee | this is know bug | 14:57 |
| marco-parillo | Regular Muon is not shipped with Kubuntu IIRC. | 14:58 |
| rpg | marco-parillo: Thanks again, this really helps. | 14:58 |
| marco-parillo | In fact there is somebody here (I forget who) who regularly advises people to stick with regular Muon. | 14:58 |
| marco-parillo | For everything, not just what you cannot find in Discover. | 14:59 |
| akik | i looked up a bug report about plasma-discover some weeks ago | 15:00 |
| rpg | Another question (I hope quick): do I have to specially configure the sources to get jenkins? | 15:01 |

| marco-parillo | rpg: What does apt-cache policy jenkins return? | 15:21 |
| rpg | marco-parillo: Looks like I have to manually add a new apt source for Jenkins. | 15:28 |
| rpg | Doing that fixes the problem. | 15:28 |
| rpg | I suppose there's some organizational reason why ubuntu cannot include jenkins. | 15:28 |
| OerHeks | last version was precise https://launchpad.net/jenkins , follow https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Installing+Jenkins+on+Ubuntu | 15:31 |

| bjrohan | Help. After my upgrade, when I start programs I get: Configuration file not writable. Please contact your system administrator. | 15:48 |
| bjrohan | How do I resolve this system wide? | 15:48 |
| bjrohan | Or Rather user wide, as I am the only user on this system. | 15:48 |
| akik | bjrohan: without knowing what happened, it's safe to run "sudo chown -R username /home/username" | 15:50 |
| bjrohan | akik: Thank you. While upgrading from 15.04 to 16.04 with a stop at 15.10, the upgrade via GUI stopped towards the end, presumbaly because it was waiting from user input on CLI, which I couldn't give. I had to shut dow the system mid upgrade and continue on reboot | 15:52 |
| bjrohan | That is my best guess as to what caused this mess now :-) | 15:52 |
| bjrohan | akik: I assume this changes the hidden / config files as well? | 15:56 |
| akik | bjrohan: yes the whole home dir | 15:56 |
| bjrohan | Thanks | 15:56 |
| akik | bjrohan: but it could be that your install is broken. does it give weird error messages? | 15:57 |
| bjrohan | That command didn't give any error message. It has completed, but I just tried to start Konsole and received: | 15:57 |
| bjrohan | Configuration file "/home/bjrohan/.config/rc" not writable. | 15:57 |
| bjrohan | Please contact your system administrator. | 15:57 |
| bjrohan | Then konsole started | 15:58 |
| akik | bjrohan: so what's the permissions on rc? | 15:58 |
| akik | maybe it's missing w-bit on some dir/file | 15:59 |
| bjrohan | akik: honestly what's relaly odd, I did this upgrade 3 days ago, I've been using the system since then and didn't received this message until a few minutes ago. I get this on every program I start, even ones I ran uesterday that didn't cause this | 15:59 |
| bjrohan | akik: Something is messed up! That file doesn't exist in .config | 16:01 |
| akik | bjrohan: i don't have it either on kubuntu 16.04 | 16:02 |
| bjrohan | I just tried to download a file via chromium, which I also did yesterday, it says insuffecient permissions. | 16:03 |
| akik | bjrohan: if you touch /home/bjrohan/.config/rc does it work then without errors? | 16:04 |
| bjrohan | akik: touch: cannot touch '/home/bjrohan/.config/rc': Read-only file system | 16:05 |
| akik | bjrohan: oh wow | 16:05 |
| akik | bjrohan: is /home in your under your root file system? | 16:06 |
| bjrohan | I'm afraid to do a reboo | 16:06 |
| bjrohan | akik: yes | 16:06 |
| akik | bjrohan: the chown command should've errored out too | 16:06 |
| akik | bjrohan: you can try "sudo mount -o remount,rw /" | 16:06 |
| bjrohan | akik: no error when I did that, however it didn't change anything | 16:07 |
| bjrohan | ls -la in /home shows: drwxr-xr-x 179 bjrohan bjrohan 20480 Jul 10 16:17 bjrohan | 16:09 |
| akik | bjrohan: did you run the mount command? | 16:09 |
| bjrohan | akik: ^ | 16:09 |
| bjrohan | akik: I did | 16:09 |
| bjrohan | akik: When I ran it, I didn't get any error message, but starting konsole gave me the same error msg about rc | 16:10 |
| akik | bjrohan: sorry out of ideas | 16:11 |
| bjrohan | akik: what could go wrong if I reboot? | 16:11 |
| akik | bjrohan: maybe you could get more help at #ubuntu | 16:12 |

| io_silver | hi, I'm running kubuntu 14.04, is it possible to install kde plasma 5, such that I can choose between plasma 4 and 5 at login? | 17:25 |
| soee | nope | 17:26 |
| io_silver | alas, thanks | 17:26 |
| io_silver | do I understand correctly that if I were to install, for example, LXDE on top of kubuntu 14.04, then in that case I would be able to switch desktop environments at login? | 17:31 |
| soee | io_silver: yes, should work | 17:32 |
| marco-parillo | But unless you are really talented, you might install more than just the DE. You might have separate programs with duplicate aims for terminal emulation programs, file managers, music players. | 17:36 |
| io_silver | i see, and that would bleed over across the various desktops. I could in theory get around that by creating a separate user account for the other desktop environment? | 17:40 |
| io_silver | no, the kde apps would still be there, i see | 17:41 |
| anabain | Is there a lightweight alternative to dolphin? | 18:37 |
| * nlsthzn covers his dolphin installs ears... | 18:37 | |
| BluesKaj | anabain: sounds like you need a lighter desktop environment | 18:38 |
| anabain | BluesKaj, I need dolphin not freezing, actually, but I'm fed up with it. MOre exactly, I'm fed up with 16.04 | 18:39 |
| BluesKaj | anabain: I have to ask, have you updated/upgraded to the latest packages? | 18:40 |
| anabain | of course | 18:40 |
| BluesKaj | I had to ask, not all users do so | 18:41 |
| anabain | BluesKaj, ok, excuse me. BTW, may I ask you a question? Do you really think 16.04 is a release distro? | 18:41 |
| BluesKaj | do you have the the proprietary driver installed for your gpu ? | 18:42 |
| BluesKaj | other than intel | 18:43 |
| * nlsthzn is finding kubuntu 16.04 + backports rock solid... very best KDE 5 experience by far | 18:43 | |
| anabain | I have a radeon video card, which had some issues. I had to disable vsync for the compositor, otherwise I experience awful/unusable desktop behaviour, because there was no refresh | 18:45 |
| BluesKaj | ni letś not talk about , personal experience ẅorks for for me", that doesn help anyone | 18:45 |
| BluesKaj | nlsthzn: ^ | 18:45 |
| anabain | BluesKaj, xserver-xorg-video-radeon is installed. | 18:45 |
| * nlsthzn wasn't trying to help ;) | 18:46 | |
| anabain | BluesKaj, and radeon module is in use. | 18:46 |
| nsnzero | anabain: what rendering are you using in the compositor ? | 18:48 |
| anabain | nsnzero, I think I don't fully understand you. Do you mean OpenGL 2.0 /GLX ? | 18:50 |
| nsnzero | anabain: yes - try enabling your vsync with a different renderer - i had problems with opengl2 | 18:51 |
| anabain | ok | 18:51 |
| anabain | thanks for the hint | 18:51 |
| nsnzero | no problem | 18:53 |
| anabain | nsnzero, it seems 3.1 + EGL works quite well, but what should I pay attention to to get the best settings? | 18:54 |
| lethu | anabain: try 2.0 with full screen repaints, don't pay attention to the warning | 18:55 |
| anabain | lethu, I tried it and it worked incredibly slowly | 18:55 |
| lethu | anabain: 3.1 has poor performance with 3d applications | 18:55 |
| BluesKaj | anabain: install the xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu | 18:55 |
| lethu | anabain: oh, that's the setting I have, it works ok | 18:56 |
| lethu | anabain: also have amd gpu | 18:56 |
| lethu | anabain: maybe model specific issue | 18:56 |
| anabain | BluesKaj, it's already installed, but radeon is the module in use. How can I ensure the modern driver will be used? | 18:57 |
| anabain | lethu, could be, I also think so... | 18:57 |
| BluesKaj | anabain: remove the radeon driver | 18:58 |
| anabain | ok | 18:58 |
| anabain | BluesKaj, dpkg -P xserver-xorg-video-radeon , right? | 19:00 |
| BluesKaj | dpkg -r | 19:00 |
| anabain | ok | 19:02 |
| nsnzero | BluesKaj: wont the driver manager be easier to use to remove it ? | 19:02 |
| BluesKaj | no need to purge | 19:02 |
| BluesKaj | all package managers includng apt, the gui managers etv all use dpkg to manage packages | 19:04 |
| rohan_ | BluesKaj: I was on here earlier, and akik was helping me with an issue, that I'm hoping you can give insight to | 19:08 |
| BluesKaj | hi rohan_ , whatś up? | 19:09 |
| rohan_ | BluesKaj: I upgraded my system from 15.04 to 16.04 a few days ago. It has stopped when updating to 15.10 via gui waiting for input, I got through that and finished to 16.05 | 19:09 |
| rohan_ | BluesKaj: all was fine for a few days of use, then earlier today, out of the blue when I started program i got an error message for all of them that it couldn't access different files | 19:10 |
| nsnzero | BluesKaj: the driver manager does not work in 16.04 - i have forgotten what its does - thanks for the clarity | 19:11 |
| BluesKaj | rohan, how did you uprade from 15.04, itś EOL | 19:12 |
| rohan_ | BluesKaj: but the program would start. In Chromium I tried downloading a file, but said I don't have user permissions. akik had me change all permissions on my home file, but that didn't help | 19:15 |
| BluesKaj | nsnzero: yes, but thatś a system settings problem , not the package manager afiak | 19:15 |
| rohan_ | BluesKaj: I upgraded by first using Muon update to update my packages | 19:15 |
| rohan_ | BluesKaj: then to get to 15.10, I used Muon to get the upgrade | 19:15 |
| rohan_ | to go from 15.10 to 16.04 from cli I ran to do-release-upgrade I beleive | 19:15 |
| BluesKaj | from 15.04 rohan_ ? i dont see how thatś possible | 19:16 |
| rohan_ | BluesKaj: Now the computer won't start. I'm not in front of it right now though, on here now looking for insite | 19:16 |
| BluesKaj | from 15.10 yes , that makes sense | 19:17 |
| rohan_ | BluesKaj: when I would open Muon update on 15.04, at the top it would let me know there was an upgrade | 19:17 |
| BluesKaj | rohan_: when was this ? | 19:17 |
| rohan_ | last Thursday | 19:18 |
| anabain | BluesKaj, when trying to remove the radeon driver it says xserver-xorg-video-ati depends on it? Can/Should I uninstall it too? | 19:18 |
| BluesKaj | no | 19:18 |
| BluesKaj | anabain: | 19:18 |
| rohan_ | BluesKaj: FWIW my system is dual boot with Win 8.1, and my Linux install is done over several partitions, with home having its own | 19:19 |
| rohan_ | BluesKaj: Since my 16.04 had been working okay from what I could tell until this AM, could I simply do an install from a live CD without a format? | 19:20 |
| anabain | BluesKaj, what? | 19:20 |
| BluesKaj | sorry rohan Iǘe never hear do of a successful release-upgrade from a dead OS to an active one, if you sed the sources.list or sopem such ., perhaps that would work , but not having the latest upgraded packages is a risky if not fatal exercise. | 19:21 |
| BluesKaj | anabain: don remove the ati | 19:22 |
| BluesKaj | don | 19:22 |
| BluesKaj | do not | 19:23 |
| BluesKaj | my KB battery is dying | 19:23 |
| anabain | BluesKaj, then what's the command? | 19:23 |
| BluesKaj | sudo apt install xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu | 19:24 |
| rohan_ | BluesKaj: What are your thoughts on doing an install from a live usb, matching up the partitions, and NOT doing a format? | 19:26 |
| BluesKaj | no need to match up partitions, rohan_ , just use usb /disk creator dd to inage the usb stick | 19:28 |
| BluesKaj | or dd | 19:28 |
| BluesKaj | brb , have to replace some batteries | 19:29 |
| akik | i think rohan_ meant installing over your previous installation without initializing the file system | 19:30 |
| BluesKaj | akik: I'would like to know how he managd to upgrade from 15.04 without doing a clean install to 16.04 | 19:32 |

| akik | this was his previous explanation | 19:34 |
| akik | 02:01 < bjrohan> Hello all. Tried upgrading from 15.04 to 16.04 with the required 15.10. In upgrading to 15.10, I had to | 19:34 |
| akik | leave my box, when I came back it was stuck at libsane, and the comp was locked up. I was able to shut it | 19:34 |
| akik | down and restart into 15.10, however the upgrade didn't finish of course. What do I need to do | 19:34 |
| akik | 02:02 < bjrohan> in order to finish 15.10 and continue on to 16.04 | 19:34 |
| akik | BluesKaj: i meant not initializing (=mkfs) the target partition | 19:36 |
| BluesKaj | akik, iĺ let you carry theball on this one, upgrading fron EOL is almost impossibel to do cleanly...noe he has to deal with the consequences ...recommend a clean install to / and creat a /home partition will make upgrades to new release much easier | 19:37 |
| akik | BluesKaj: that's what he's planning to do. install 16.04 over the current installation | 19:38 |
| akik | i don't know why he doesn't want to format the partition though | 19:39 |
| akik | rohan_: why don't you want to format the target partition? | 19:41 |
| BluesKaj | akik: then use gparted to make 2 ext4 partitions, one 15G for/ and anything over 60G for home should suffice for most users unless they store all their media on a the /home then use whatever is needed | 19:41 |
| thelionroars | I'm getting a kernel panic only when trying to boot on battery, is the output logged somewhere for when I boot connected to AC? I think the message I need is just offscreen | 19:45 |

| rohan_ | BluesKaj: akik I don't want to lose my personal data (/home), but also any program config info. If doing a clean install with formatting on everything but /home will suffice I'll do it | 19:49 |
| rohan_ | akik: Given mu situation, should I simply install 16.04 from LiveUSB, and while installing, make sure that I just don't format the /home. Also just make sure I use same name and password correct? | 20:05 |
| akik | rohan_: i'm not sure what you meant by the program config info | 20:05 |
| akik | rohan_: installing an operating system might overwrite files | 20:06 |
| akik | rohan_: it's quite certain that program config info will be overwritten | 20:06 |
| rohan_ | Programs like Chromium with the bookmarks, etc. I also have to adjust audio settings to get the beats audio to work. Would all that be stored in my home directory? | 20:06 |
| akik | rohan_: but yes there's an option not to format the target partition | 20:06 |
| rohan_ | akik: Should I just not format my /home partition, or not format all partitions? | 20:07 |
| akik | rohan_: how many partition have you allocated to ubuntu? | 20:07 |
| akik | rohan_: you can select in "something else" that you don't format the partitions | 20:08 |
| rohan_ | I'm not in front of the machine to look, at least a /home partition and a /boot partition | 20:08 |
| akik | rohan_: i have no idea about beats audio. chromium's user data will be in your home dir | 20:09 |
| rohan_ | akik: I had to adjust the pulse audio I believe | 20:09 |
| dmatt | Hello, I am on 14.04 and need to connect smartphone in MTP mode, it does not work out of the box, it worked right after i installed libmtp-common mtp-tools libmtp-dev libmtp-runtime libmtp9 but ceased to work after reboot. Any idea? | 20:19 |
| marahin | How can I change KDE's panel color? | 20:29 |
| marahin | As I set my theme to breeze-dark it's blazingly bright, the default one | 20:29 |
| anabain | In order to solve some video card issues on 16.04, I've been told to remove xserver-xorg-video-radeon and use xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu instead. dpkg -r xserver-xorg-video-radeon does not work because xserver-xorg-video-ati depends on it, and I've also been told not to remove the ati package. What can I do, then? | 20:32 |
| soee | marahin: it should work | 20:32 |
| soee | are you on 16.04 with backport enabled ? | 20:32 |
| marahin | soee, I do not know about the backports; how can I check that? | 20:33 |
| soee | marahin: what plasma version do you have ? | 20:35 |
| marahin | soee, actually I just had to switch to Breeze, apply, set to Breeze-dark, apply - and it worked this time with the panel | 20:36 |
| marahin | so I believe it was just some kind of a bug | 20:36 |
| marahin | ✘ marahin@resp4wn ~ plasmashell -v | 20:37 |
| marahin | plasmashell 5.5.5 | 20:37 |
| marahin | soee, ^ | 20:37 |
| soee | so you dont have backports | 20:37 |
| marahin | I believe so :) | 20:37 |
| marahin | And I rather not add them - last time I did it kinda messed everything up. | 20:37 |
| soee | http://kubuntu.org/news/plasma-5-6-5-and-frameworks-5-23-now-in-backports-for-kubuntu-16-04/ | 20:37 |
| soee | this should only help | 20:37 |
| soee | it is more stable and has a lot of bugfixes | 20:37 |
| marahin | Backports are stable-er? Why didn't they make it to repositories then? (: | 20:38 |
| soee | Ubuntu policy | 20:38 |
| marahin | Just "baiting" haha. I will check this out defintely, thank you for your time soee and have a nice evening (or day)! | 20:38 |
