[00:41] <viewer|170> Hi, if there's anyone there, I'd really appreciate your help
[00:42] <viewer|170> 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] <viewer|170> Hi
[00:55] <viewer|170> Anyone there?
[01:02] <i-> viewer|170: hello
[01:03] <viewer|170> Hi, if there's anyone there, I'd really appreciate your help
[01:03] <viewer|170> 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] <i-> 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] <viewer|170> 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] <viewer|170> http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop
[01:12] <mparillo> I find for light usage, I can run Kubuntu on a 1GB netbook.
[01:14] <viewer|170> What do you mean by light usage? At which point would you say that it starts losing performance?
[01:16] <mparillo> Web browsing or light doc editing in Libre office. No heavy games beyond kblocks.
[01:16] <mparillo> I have found Kubuntu to be the lightest KDE distro for my netbook or a 1GB VM. YMMV
[01:17] <viewer|170> Thanks mparillo, I'll try it out then
[01:19] <data-tom> 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...

[01:23] <data-tom> i love KDE but trying to fix things in it WoW what a pain in the ass
[01:43] <DarthFrog> 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] <Omnifrog> 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] <Unit193> Omnifrog: So, you want to debootstrap a system?
[02:12] <Omnifrog> just to clarify, say I boot up my system and my / drive is /sda1
[02:14] <Omnifrog> is there a way to install a new distro to /sdb1 without putting a CD in and restarting the computer?
[02:16] <Omnifrog> obviously I mean /dev/sdx#
[02:17] <Unit193> You'll have to restart to get into the new OS, though.
[02:17] <Omnifrog> well yeah, I know that part
[02:18] <Unit193> 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] <Omnifrog> how?
[02:19] <Omnifrog> do you need the install CD/DVD?
[02:20] <Omnifrog> can you do it entirely in software from the ISO?
[02:21] <Omnifrog> will it ask you if you want to upgrade to Windows 10?
[02:21] <Omnifrog> I NEED ANSWERS!
[02:22] <Unit193> 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] <Unit193> Omnifrog: It may not be the most easy thing to do, do you have specific reasons for needing to do this, btw?
[02:25] <Omnifrog> yeah, I have an old (very old) installation of open suse on a drive in this box
[02:25] <Unit193> 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] <Unit193> OK, no idea how to do it from Suse.
[02:26] <Omnifrog> no no, my main boot OS is Kubuntu
[02:26] <Omnifrog> the partition with open suse is what I want to reclaim
[02:27] <Omnifrog> and convert to a new backup boot drive
[02:28] <Unit193> Oh good then.
[02:28] <Omnifrog> seems like  DVD install might be more simpler
[02:28] <Unit193> Yep, it certainly is easier.  But the question is, which is more fun? ;)
[02:28] <Omnifrog> just have to be careful about device names
[02:29] <Omnifrog> the most fun option is the safest option
[02:30] <Omnifrog> restoring shit from multiple sources is muchly not fun
[02:30] <Unit193> So yes, official DVD installer with ubiquity it is.
[02:31] <Omnifrog> this begs the question though ...
[02:31] <Omnifrog> why is this not an option ?
[02:31] <Omnifrog> like... in a menu somewhere?
[02:31] <Unit193> Ubiquity is the default installer, you never actually see the name.  Sorry about that.
[02:33] <Omnifrog> I mean, even for enterprise applications I can see that feature being useful
[02:43] <dbrom> Anyone using handbrake these days
[02:59] <Omnifrog> I've used it a couple times
[02:59] <Omnifrog> I had no idea what I was doing

[12:28] <teleyinex> http://imgur.com/a/KKmJb
[12:28] <teleyinex> I think I have tried everything
[12:28] <teleyinex> but nothing works. Forcing DPI
[12:28] <teleyinex> deleting .kde
[12:28] <teleyinex> .local/kde

[12:32] <tuor> 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] <BluesKaj> Howdy folks

[14:02] <plusEV> 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] <plusEV> 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] <plusEV> what can I do?
[14:04] <genii> 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] <plusEV> Kubuntu 16.04, Kernel: 4.4.0-28, KDE Plasma 5.6.5, KDE Frameworks 5.23.0
[14:05] <yossarianuk> 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] <plusEV> so just kill moun in htop?
[14:06] <yossarianuk> (4) do a 'sudo dpkg --configure -a'
[14:06] <yossarianuk> (change 3 and 4 around actually
[14:10] <plusEV> lol im such a newblet with htop. When I try to kill stuff it gives me 30 different send signal.
[14:10] <plusEV> what to choose? sigterm?
[14:10] <yossarianuk> signal 9 is direct kill.
[14:11] <genii> Yes, 9
[14:12] <plusEV> ty
[14:19] <plusEV> all right praying to RNGsus that this reboot works.
[14:23] <plusEV> sweet guys. thank you both for quick assistance. :)
[14:23] <plusEV> Lesson learned. Do not do updates on the train.
[14:24] <yossarianuk> plusEV: you could always use 'sudo apt-get -d dist-upgrade'
[14:24] <yossarianuk> this just downloads packages
[14:24] <yossarianuk> not installs
[14:24] <yossarianuk> so if connection is lost it doesn't matter
[14:25] <plusEV> yossarianuk: That is nice to know. ty.
[14:27] <plusEV> 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] <plusEV> later
[16:14] <DarthFrog> 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.
[16:16] <genii> Audio CDs don't have a file system
[16:17] <DarthFrog> 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] <genii> DarthFrog: Is libcdio-cdda1 installed?
[16:20] <DarthFrog> I'll check.
[16:21] <DarthFrog> No.  Installing now.
[16:24] <DarthFrog> genii: no joy.  But K3B sees it fine.  So that's my work-around.
[17:00] <BluesKaj> DarthFrog, 16.04 point release is supposedly delayed til next week , so all upgrades aren't available yet
[17:09] <genii> 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] <genii> However, the !ltsupgrade factoid reflects the delay
[17:21] <BluesKaj> 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] <genii> Might need some gvfs things
[18:13] <DarthFrog> K3b didn't work.  Says can't find libcdparanoia but libcdparamoia0 is installed.
[18:16] <DarthFrog> I give up. :-(
[18:16] <BluesKaj> DarthFrog,  What does wodim --devices show ?
[18:19] <sapucai> hola, alguien en castellano, por favor. gracias
[18:20] <BluesKaj> !br
[18:20] <BluesKaj> sapucai, ^
[18:27] <DarthFrog> OK, jack is working. :-)
[18:28] <BluesKaj> shouldn't need jack
[18:30] <DarthFrog> Not the low-latency server, the cli CD ripping program.
[18:31] <BluesKaj> cdrecord
[18:44] <Guest30929> HELLOW
[19:00] <rajivmars>  the update notifier show an error message that adobe flash plugin has not successfully installed. How do i install it now?
[19:02] <genii> 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] <rajivmars> genii. ok. thankyou:)
[19:08] <rajivmars> genii: it says "flashplugin-installer" has already the newest version.
[19:10] <genii> rajivmars: That's fine then, you can ignore what the update-notifier is telling you.
[19:10] <rajivmars> genii. ok.
[19:13] <rajivmars> hey guys. when does plasma 5.7 will arrive for update on kubuntu 16.04?
 When it's ready
[21:38] <user|71178> with the latest 16.04 any1 find a solution to err_name_resolution_failed
[21:38] <user|71178> with the latest 16.04 any1 find a solution to err_name_resolution_failed
[21:53] <user|28515> im new user ,, how can i remove the clipboard from kubuntu 16.04 ??
[21:55] <bprompt> the clipboard?  dunno what that is
[22:00] <user|28515> Clipboard Contents !!!
[22:01] <genii> Rightclick on it, close it. When it asks whether you want it to start again next time, choose no
[22:02] <user|28515> done :D
[22:02] <user|28515> thanks genii
[22:03] <genii> Glad to assist
[22:04] <user|28515> the other thing is , when i use Discover for search , it doesn't show any result !!
[22:06] <genii> Possibly whatever you're searching for has no candidate
[22:07] <user|28515> i was searching for Vlc or chrom !
[22:08] <genii> vlc is in universe, so you need to enable that repository first
[22:10] <genii> chrome is is google's own repository. Although you can install chromium, which is in ( again) universe
[22:10] <genii> !chrome
[22:10] <genii> Meh
[22:10]  * genii smacks the bot
[22:10] <user|28515> i see
[22:14] <genii> 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 <the filename you downloaded here> to install it. After you need to update and then install google-chrome-stable
[22:15] <genii> Their deb file just makes a new repository entry in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ directory
[22:21] <user|28515> ok ,
[22:36] <kenzu> hi
[22:37] <bprompt> allo
[22:38] <kenzu> what happened in France today?
[22:40] <bprompt> kenzu:   check the news :)
[22:40] <kenzu> yes I rather ask here :D
[22:41] <kenzu> my skype malfunctioned so downloaded lots of ircs and stuff :D
[22:41]  * bprompt notices the channel topic is missing "france" in it
[22:41] <kenzu> oh okey, what is the topic? kubuntu?
[22:41] <bprompt> ahemmm /topic
[22:41] <kenzu> Sorry if I went off topic..
[22:42] <kenzu> Oh sorry guys! didnt mean to disturb you and God bless you all
[22:42] <bprompt> np
[22:46] <genii> That was slightly odd
[22:47] <Dragnslcr> Slightly?
[22:47] <genii> Well, I've seen weirder here :)
[22:48] <bprompt> 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] <genii> Dragnslcr: Once, a fellow kept asking about this program called choqok, but he was using the phonetic spelling
[22:49] <genii> That one took a little while to sort out
[22:54] <Dragnslcr> Haha
