[00:41] Hi, if there's anyone there, I'd really appreciate your help [00:42] I've been unable to find the system requirements for the latest version of the OS. Can anyone tell me or point me in the right direction? [00:55] Hi [00:55] Anyone there? [01:02] viewer|170: hello [01:03] Hi, if there's anyone there, I'd really appreciate your help [01:03] I've been unable to find the system requirements for the latest version of the OS. Can anyone tell me or point me in the right direction? [01:05] The minimum is probably about 512-768 mb of ram and an 700 MHz CPU, since that's what the Ubuntu (Unity) system requirements say (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements) [01:08] You think that low would be enough? The Ubuntu download page recommends 2GHz and 2GB of RAM. I need to have decent performance on a relatively low-powered machine [01:08] http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop [01:12] I find for light usage, I can run Kubuntu on a 1GB netbook. [01:14] What do you mean by light usage? At which point would you say that it starts losing performance? [01:16] Web browsing or light doc editing in Libre office. No heavy games beyond kblocks. [01:16] I have found Kubuntu to be the lightest KDE distro for my netbook or a 1GB VM. YMMV [01:17] Thanks mparillo, I'll try it out then [01:19] I need some help I'm running KDE v5.6.5 KDE Frameworks v5.23.0 on a laptop with 8GB:RAM Intel:i5-6300U HD Graphics 520 & things on my screen are jitter like when i move my mouse or scroll a window or even move a window. apps menu is slow coming up etc... [01:19] I'm no KDE master [01:20] what settings would help with this^? [01:23] WoW it is sure dead in here [01:23] i love KDE but trying to fix things in it WoW what a pain in the ass [01:43] Hi. I'm running Kubuntu 16.04.1. Dolphin won't open an audio cd, says that audiocd is an unknown protocol. kdemultimedia-kio-plugins is installed. Anyone have any ideas? Google turns up nothing useful. [02:06] Question: Can you install Kubuntu (or any distro) to an unmounted drive or partition from already booted-from-a-hard drive system (ie. not an install CD) ? [02:11] Omnifrog: So, you want to debootstrap a system? [02:12] just to clarify, say I boot up my system and my / drive is /sda1 [02:14] is there a way to install a new distro to /sdb1 without putting a CD in and restarting the computer? [02:16] obviously I mean /dev/sdx# [02:17] You'll have to restart to get into the new OS, though. [02:17] well yeah, I know that part [02:18] Sure, just trying to be as clear as possible, yes. And yes, if it is a different partition and you don't want to mess with your *current* partition, then yes. [02:18] how? [02:19] do you need the install CD/DVD? [02:20] can you do it entirely in software from the ISO? [02:21] will it ask you if you want to upgrade to Windows 10? [02:21] I NEED ANSWERS! [02:22] Oookay, Ubuntu docs are dated... You don't need the ISO, in theory if you do it live as long as debootstrap is installed you'll need nothing additionally. [02:24] Omnifrog: It may not be the most easy thing to do, do you have specific reasons for needing to do this, btw? [02:25] yeah, I have an old (very old) installation of open suse on a drive in this box [02:25] Basics are: mount it to a dir, debootstrap it all, mount dev and other needed filesystems there, chroot in, install the kubuntu-desktop task with apt-get install kubuntu-desktop^ [02:25] OK, no idea how to do it from Suse. [02:26] no no, my main boot OS is Kubuntu [02:26] the partition with open suse is what I want to reclaim [02:27] and convert to a new backup boot drive [02:28] Oh good then. [02:28] seems like DVD install might be more simpler [02:28] Yep, it certainly is easier. But the question is, which is more fun? ;) [02:28] just have to be careful about device names [02:29] the most fun option is the safest option [02:30] restoring shit from multiple sources is muchly not fun [02:30] So yes, official DVD installer with ubiquity it is. [02:31] this begs the question though ... [02:31] why is this not an option ? [02:31] like... in a menu somewhere? [02:31] Ubiquity is the default installer, you never actually see the name. Sorry about that. [02:33] I mean, even for enterprise applications I can see that feature being useful [02:43] Anyone using handbrake these days [02:59] I've used it a couple times [02:59] I had no idea what I was doing [04:43] Hello [04:43] when KDE 5.7 released on repositories ? === richard is now known as Guest32001 === Guest32001 is now known as richiezed [07:46] the 16.04.1 release notes contain a reference to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XenialUpgrades, which referenes https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XenialUpgrades/Kubuntu. which is a 404. are upgrades from 14.04 to 16.04.1 supported? [07:52] Specialist, your updater will upgrade you to the current state.

[10:30] Hi, can I move a window to an other activity? [12:27] Hi there [12:28] I just installed kde-plasma-desktop [12:28] and my fonts look terrible. I've a hidpi screen [12:28] and this is what happens [12:28] http://imgur.com/a/KKmJb [12:28] I think I have tried everything [12:28] but nothing works. Forcing DPI [12:28] deleting .kde [12:28] .local/kde [12:28] any ideas [12:29] Answer to my question: rightclick on the window title bar, activity ... [12:31] tuor I don' t see the Activity option [12:31] I' ve ubuntu 16.04 [12:32] teleyinex, I asked about how to move a window to an other activity. This was the answer. I need to have more then one activity to see the option. [12:32] Howdy folks [12:32] ok [12:32] no idea about my font issues... === jan is now known as Guest41651 [12:37] tuor yes, create activities in them in system settings>desktop behaviour>activities [12:38] works now. :) [13:00] hello [13:00] how to force baloo purge and reindex all mails ? [13:03] encolpe: maybe try asking on #kde-devel [13:05] and kde-pim… === YankDownUnder is now known as YDU_away === mgolden is now known as mgolden_ [14:02] Hi, I am in need of urgent assistance.I just came home from vacation and I am sitting on a train. I was stupid trusting that the wifi on this train was stable enough to do system updates. Now my Discover app has been sitting on 10% done for the last hour. If I try closing Discover I get the following message: Could not close the application, there are tasks that need to be done. [14:03] I am worried I brick my system when I have to close the laptop down and exit the train in 50 minutes from now. [14:03] what can I do? [14:04] If muon doesn't time out by when you have to turn the machine off, use ps to find it's PID and then use kill on the PID number [14:05] Kubuntu 16.04, Kernel: 4.4.0-28, KDE Plasma 5.6.5, KDE Frameworks 5.23.0 [14:05] plusEV: what I would do is (1) kill the process - also check forany running apt + dpkg processes. (2) do a 'sudo apt update' (3) do a 'sudo apt-get -f install ' [14:06] so just kill moun in htop? [14:06] (4) do a 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' [14:06] (change 3 and 4 around actually [14:10] lol im such a newblet with htop. When I try to kill stuff it gives me 30 different send signal. [14:10] what to choose? sigterm? [14:10] signal 9 is direct kill. [14:11] Yes, 9 [14:12] ty [14:19] all right praying to RNGsus that this reboot works. [14:23] sweet guys. thank you both for quick assistance. :) [14:23] Lesson learned. Do not do updates on the train. [14:24] plusEV: you could always use 'sudo apt-get -d dist-upgrade' [14:24] this just downloads packages [14:24] not installs [14:24] so if connection is lost it doesn't matter [14:25] yossarianuk: That is nice to know. ty. [14:27] yossarianuk: I know not to do this on train WiFi really, but I brainfarted and I was thinking using VPN mattered. Of course it does not ;) [14:29] later === emad is now known as TechieG === yaiyan is now known as Yaiyan === rpg is now known as rpg[Away] [16:14] Hi. I'm running Kubuntu 16.04.1. Dolphin won't open an audio cd, says that audiocd is an unknown protocol. kdemultimedia-kio-plugins is installed. Anyone have any ideas? Google turns up nothing useful. === dan is now known as daps === daps is now known as dpl [16:16] Audio CDs don't have a file system [16:17] genii: Yeah but it used to use the kio-audiocd slave to open the disk and show the tracks as WAV, MP3 or Ogg files. Now, it doesn't open the disk at all. [16:19] DarthFrog: Is libcdio-cdda1 installed? [16:20] I'll check. [16:21] No. Installing now. [16:24] genii: no joy. But K3B sees it fine. So that's my work-around. [17:00] DarthFrog, 16.04 point release is supposedly delayed til next week , so all upgrades aren't available yet [17:09] Oddly, the ubuntu-announce mailing list had the announcement for the point release on July 22 saying it was out already, no retraction or following announcement that it was delayed. [17:10] However, the !ltsupgrade factoid reflects the delay [17:21] DarthFrog my vesion is still plain 16.04 and the cd and dvd disks are recognized as media in dolphin, What does wodim --devices show ? [17:22] Might need some gvfs things [18:13] K3b didn't work. Says can't find libcdparanoia but libcdparamoia0 is installed. [18:16] I give up. :-( [18:16] DarthFrog, What does wodim --devices show ?

How do i install it now? [19:02] rajivmars: Open Konsole and do it by command-line: sudo apt update && sudo apt install flashplugin-installer ..if it spews out any errors, copy and paste whats in the Konsole screen to a pastebin so we can see what it's doing [19:03] genii. ok. thankyou:) [19:08] genii: it says "flashplugin-installer" has already the newest version. [19:10] rajivmars: That's fine then, you can ignore what the update-notifier is telling you. [19:10] genii. ok.

[21:55] the clipboard? dunno what that is [22:00] Clipboard Contents !!! [22:01] Rightclick on it, close it.

[22:06] Possibly whatever you're searching for has no candidate [22:07] i was searching for Vlc or chrom ! [22:08] vlc is in universe, so you need to enable that repository first [22:10] chrome is is google's own repository. Although you can install chromium, which is in ( again) universe [22:10] !chrome [22:10] Meh [22:10] * genii smacks the bot [22:10] i see === nickgeoca is now known as linman [22:14] user|28515: For chrome, go to https://www.google.com/chrome/browser/desktop/ download the deb package for Ubuntu, save it to the hard drive. then use sudo dpkg -i to install it. After you need to update and then install google-chrome-stable [22:15] Their deb file just makes a new repository entry in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ directory [22:21] ok , [22:36] hi [22:37] allo [22:38] what happened in France today?

[22:47] Well, I've seen weirder here :) [22:48] at least it wasn't spam, #ubuntu is on +R mode, so I gather the channel is being spammed, so hmmm at least is not the case here [22:49] Dragnslcr: Once, a fellow kept asking about this program called choqok, but he was using the phonetic spelling [22:49] That one took a little while to sort out [22:54] Haha
