[08:40] <Aleksejs> Hi, I have a problem with screen lock. After some update I have a new screen lock when I turn on the pc, but old screen lock when I lock it via Ctrl+Alt+l. That old one doesn't work anymore - I enter password but nothing happens. I login via tty and can kill kscreenlocker process but it respawns with the new pid. Does anyone know how to fix it?
[10:06] <hazamonzo> Hello folks
[10:11] <hazamonzo> So I have an odd issue using java client tools in Kubuntu... For whatever reason, when i click a button that would usually open a SWT popup in my java client tool, nothing will happen UNTIL i for another popup window to apprear (like trying to close my app) and only then will the first popup appear. I know its a weird question but could there be anything to do with the Kubuntu UI / libs that could be causing this?
[10:11] <hazamonzo> Long shot i know
[10:11] <aiena> how do I set permissions to make a dir writable with php through apache ?
[10:16] <aiena> hmm command chmod 777 /file.ext means give user group and other rwx what does chmod 2770 /file.ext mean specifically the very first number

[12:40] <madmouser1> advice needed what do use for backups on kubuntu ? I have started using "Back In Time" didn't have to do a restore yet. But I am looking for something to do system state (bare metal restore) of system as well (currently using dd from usb to backup drive to external) but looking for something more intuitive.

[13:38] <brohan> akik: Hi there. You were helping me this time yesterday with my install
[13:41] <brohan> akik: Booting my system dropped me in emergency. ran fdisk, fixed a few items, tested and found the drive was failing
[13:43] <akik> brohan: ok i though something was amiss
[13:45] <akik> thought
[13:53] <brohan> akik: HDD had 10 partitions, 6 for windoze (including efi),and the 4 for Linux. I am dd'ing my home partition now (750GB). Do you see any reason to dd my /boot or / partitions?
[13:53] <brohan> akik: I suppose it wouldn't take long to do
[13:54] <akik> brohan: your user files will be in /home/username
[13:54] <akik> brohan: the os installation creates everything in /boot and / that is needed
[13:55] <lordievader> brohan: Boot only contains kernels and initrd files. / contains much more interesting stuff, like /etc or /usr or /opt.
[13:55] <lordievader> But if that is not needed... no need to DD.
[13:56] <brohan> lordievader: akik Just want to mae sure that I didn't miss anthing before tossing out the old drive. I will just have to reinstall any systemwide programs correct ie chromium, Thundrebird, but the preferences are saved on my /home part correct
[13:57] <lordievader> Should be yes. System-wide config usually goes to /etc, hence I'd back that up too.
[13:57] <akik> brohan: also if you want to save old log files, they're in /var/log
[19:10] <laminator> a blind man walks into a bar. He couldn't see it coming.
[19:11] <Mrokii> Hello. Can somebody recommend a good backup-program fur Kubuntu? I'd prefer something with a GUI, but it would be nice to have incremental backups and I'd like to be able to access the backed up files via shell or a file browser.
[19:14] <brohan> BluesKaj: Hello
[19:25] <brohan> I have a laptop with a single failing 1TB hdd, that isn't anywhere near full, even with Win 8 dual boot. I am considering going to 2 drives, one being a small SSD. What size SSD would I need, and what should go on it?
[19:26] <brohan> I figure /, /boot and /swap
[19:42] <BluesKaj> brohan:  in that case a 32Gb, if available would work , but there are some very inexpensive 128Gb ssds on the market now
[19:54] <rpg> I just tried to use tightvncserver on kubuntu, and I get an error that ksmserver closed unexpectedly.
[19:56] <rpg> I had seen this on a previous (Linux Mint) install, but was hoping it would be fixed in up-to-date kubuntu.
[19:56] <mparillo> brohan: BluesKaj is exactly correct. I got http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820178966 on a sale for 37.99 USD by waiting on a sale. It has made a T61 which was barely usable on Win7 my favorite piece of HW again.
[20:01] <acheronuk> Just reinstalled on a new 240GB SSD today, and was about £60. That is overkill in size really, but I've left plenty of room should I want to add a Yakkety partition or perhaps other distros on the same disk
[20:01] <acheronuk> all depends what you want to achieve I suppose
[20:05] <BluesKaj> acheronuk:  yeah, i use a Samsung EVO 850 250Gb SSD partitioned for 16.04 and a broken 16.10 which i haven't bothered with for a while due to the multidude of problems lately
[20:20] <hegemon8> hi everyone.
