[01:07] <Fil_> hi. help needed updating 14.04 to 16.04: muon got stuck asking me for a password of a VPN network, without letting me enter it. I started the upgrade from the systray notification
[01:08] <Fil_> is there a way to let it restart/continue? is it safe to restart to continue? it got stuck right at the beginning (9% of packages updated)
[01:13] <TheTrash> Hm is it broken now? Safest thing I guess is to run sudo do-release-upgrade -d from an xterm
[01:14] <TheTrash> Hm leave out the -d, I guess, but it's a no-op.
[01:15] <Fil_> "No new release found"
[01:16] <TheTrash> sudo apt-get dist-upgrade maybe?
[01:16] <goddard> what is the best way to set proper scaling for 4k in Plasma?
[01:16] <goddard> i can fiddle with a bunch of random stuff and it works pretty nicely for most apps but any easy button or something?
[01:16] <goddard> google chrome is insanely small
[01:18] <Fil_> I tried that one, it says that E: Could not get lock /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
[01:18] <TheTrash> Hm, I guess the upgrade process is still running in the background, kill it?
[01:20] <goddard> TheTrash: if it is installing then no way
[01:20] <goddard> you will have to reinstall most likely if that happens
[01:20] <TheTrash> If it's stuck... we're already at that point.
[01:21] <goddard> TheTrash: http://www.teejeetech.in/p/timeshift.html
[01:22] <goddard> for future reference
[01:23] <TheTrash> Things would have to break *really* badly for it not to be fixable from the CLI, though. But yeah I guess that's useful.
[01:23] <goddard> TheTrash: yeah but to me it isn't worth the trouble at that point
[01:24] <goddard> easier to copy home directory and start over
[01:25] <TheTrash> Yeah I guess
[01:37] <Fil_> I killed the sub-process that was trying to restart the openvpn service. now it seems to be doing something again (but sadly I accidentally closed the window too, so I'm not certain).
[01:37] <Fil_> thanks for the advice
[04:44] <Startrek852> Hello. I need to know how to increase saturation on Kubuntu 16.04. I used to use the Catalyst Control Center to increase it, but now I can't because there's no fglrx driver for 16.04.
[05:45] <YankDownUnder> Startrek852: System Settings => Display and Monitor => Gamma
[06:02] <Startrek852> I'm back, I got disconnected.
[06:18] <Startrek852> Changing gamma doesn't seem to do anything.
[06:29] <YankDownUnder> Startrek852: Have you considered "Redshift"? It's in the repos.
[06:46] <Startrek852> Redshift
[06:46] <Startrek852> Redshift?
[06:48] <soee> !redshift
[06:49] <soee> http://jonls.dk/redshift/
[06:53] <user|97110> i have update my Kubuntu to 16.04 but now it does not start up. i have only see a black desktop. can someone tell me what to do /
[06:56] <user|97110> halfway the update my laptop was going out because the battery was low,so i think the update was not succesfully ended
[06:56] <Smurphy> Indeed. That's why updates are only applied with power-cord plugged in.
[06:57] <Smurphy> What you can try - if you are able to get to a console (black command line thing).
[06:57] <Smurphy> Log in, sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get -f install
[06:58] <Smurphy> If no console is available, then boot into recovery mode and do the same.
[07:01] <user|97110> Smurphy , thanx yor first options does not work,but i will try boot into recovery mode
[07:05] <user|97110> i see on a black desktop only kubuntu 16.04 .............but he doesnt go further.
[07:08] <Smurphy> yes. Probably because the update/installation/setup of packages wasn't done.
[07:13] <Startrek852> Redshift doesn't seem to be what I want.
[07:14] <user|73723> Smurphy when i sudo apt-get update , i see ; ignoring provides line whit DepCompareOp for Package pypy-cffi-backend-api-mi
[07:32] <Smurphy> does not matter. It's the  sudo apt-get -f install which is important.
[07:32] <Smurphy> The update line just make sure the local package-db is in sync with the repositories.
[07:48] <user|73723> how can i remove kubuntu in with a simple command ,so i can install it again
[07:53] <Startrek852> rn
[07:53] <Startrek852> Sorry, accident.
[08:06] <Theory> How do I move an icon on the desktop...clicking and holding isn't working
[08:10] <Theory> i got n/m
[10:29] <viewer|21942> hi there short question where can i find the akonadi config at the moment system tray is empty and i don't get a startup working with the console
[11:47] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[13:21] <moparisthebest> hi, I just upgraded from 14.04 to 16.04, and now all my fonts are HUGE
[13:22] <moparisthebest> in the settings, they are set to size 10, but look more like ~25 or so did before
[13:22] <moparisthebest> my resolution is the same as ever 1920x1200, so what am I missing?
[13:22] <Smurphy> Check in System settings, what the DPI is.
[13:22] <Smurphy> Mine, on a full HD screen, is around 96DPI
[13:23] <moparisthebest> all I see about DPI is 'force fonts dpi' and it's unchecked, I guess I'll try forcing it
[13:24] <moparisthebest> it's not really even just the fonts, the menu bars and such in some applications are huge
[13:25] <moparisthebest> ah yep that fixed thunderbird at least, thanks much Smurphy :)
[13:26] <Smurphy> You'll have to log-out and in again for it to be applied everywhere.
[13:26] <Smurphy> What's the regular font-size setting in your setup ?
[13:26] <moparisthebest> 10 mostly
[13:26] <moparisthebest> yea I'm going to restart to see if that fixes the gigantic title bars and such too
[13:26] <moparisthebest> be right back
[13:27] <Smurphy> What screen resolution you have in general ?
[13:27] <moparisthebest> 1920x1200
[13:27] <moparisthebest> which is just a bit taller than 1080p
[13:27] <Smurphy> yes.
[13:27] <Smurphy> Which fonts are you using ? Default ones ?
[13:27] <moparisthebest> yep default fonts
[13:27] <Smurphy> Oxygen ?
[13:27] <moparisthebest> Noto Sans 10 for general it looks like
[13:28] <moparisthebest> yes it was on breeze I switched back to oxygen
[13:28] <Smurphy> Hmm. Never tried those.
[13:28] <moparisthebest> I'll report back after restarting :)
[13:28] <Smurphy> ok
[13:29] <TheTrash> I had to do this to get rid of a lot of UI issues: http://askubuntu.com/questions/633097/kubuntu-15-04-plasma-5-3-showing-kde-apps-with-gtk-themes
[13:32] <moparisthebest> yep that fixed everything
[13:32] <moparisthebest> SOOOO much better, thanks Smurphy
[13:53] <Smurphy> Cool.
[14:43] <dwarapureddi> hiii
[14:43] <dwarapureddi> hii
[16:17] <chcknrub> Hi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[16:17] <chcknrub> when will plasma 5.7.2 be included in LTS?
[16:18] <chcknrub> kde frameworks 5.24 will be released in LTS?
[16:18] <chcknrub> Qt Version latest?
[16:18] <chcknrub> ^_^
[16:19] <chcknrub> my konsole sesions are not being saved... please release the latest versions
[16:30] <soee_> chcknrub: when they will be ready
[16:30] <soee_> Kubuntu developers need to package also QT 5.6 to make it work so it is not that easy
[16:35] <chcknrub> i clicked a single unread news in Akregator, then all the rest of the news are marked as read and all disappear
[17:07] <hyperdriveguy> I'm having issues installing Kubuntu in UEFI mode.
[18:46] <Startrek852> Hello.
[18:48] <Khaotic> hi all
[18:48] <Startrek852> hi
[18:52] <Startrek852> I asked this yesterday, but I'm going to ask again. I need to know how to increase saturation on 16.04 without the fglrx driver and Catalyst Control Center. One user (can't remember the username) suggesting changing gamma and installing Redshift, but those aren't what I want.
[19:21] <Startrek852> Anyone?
[19:54] <dirtside> Howdy. So I'm running Kubuntu 16.04 and I added ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports so that I could get a newer version of plasma-desktop that would hopefully fix some of the issues with the default version (5.5.5). I'm on 5.6.5 now but it's actually got some worse issues, so I want to downgrade back to 5.5.5. However when I try to run this command:
[19:54] <dirtside> sudo apt install plasma-desktop=4:5.5.5-0ubuntu1
[19:54] <dirtside> ...it tells me that there are unmet dependencies:
[19:54] <dirtside> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[19:54] <dirtside>  plasma-desktop : Depends: kactivities but it is not going to be installed
[19:54] <dirtside>                   Depends: plasma-desktop-data (= 4:5.5.5-0ubuntu1) but 4:5.6.5-0ubuntu1~ubuntu16.04~ppa1 is to be installed
[19:54] <dirtside> If I add "plasma-desktop-data=4:5.5.5-0ubuntu1" and "kactivities" to the install command, then it tells me it's going to downgrade plasma-desktop and plasma-desktop-data, and install kactivities, but aren't there a bunch of other auxiliary plasma-desktop packages that would also need to be downgraded? Should I maybe just log out, kill sddm, uninstall plasma-desktop completely, and then install plasma-desktop 5.5.5?
[19:55] <dirtside> Sorry, I figured that would all be one message with line breaks embedded in it, not multiple messages. *kicks IRC protocol in face*
[19:56] <soee> install ppa-purge
[19:57] <dirtside> Here's the whole shebang as a paste: https://paste.kde.org/p88izvztw
[19:57] <soee> than: ppa-purge ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports
[19:57] <dirtside> oh nice, that sounds handy. thanks
