Detroit_Bad_BoyHi all, I have kubuntu 16.04 LTS. I have a flash drive. I have a linux OS I want to test out. I am chasing my tail as to how to make a bootable flash drive and burn the ISO image to it. Unetbootin did not work. I was told about Universal USB Installer but I find a LOT about doing it in Win-Don't but   .........  in any type of linux forums14:58

Detroit_Bad_BoyHi all, I am running kubuntu 16.04 LTS. I have a flash drive. I want to burn an ISO image to it so I can boot from it in boot choices on my Dell Inspiron 660. Unetbootin does not work. I am trying to find an iso software to use in my linux distro so that I can simply burn the image to it. Any ideas (aside from UNETBOOTIN)?15:28
soeeDetroit_Bad_Boy: try https://www.etcher.io15:29
Detroit_Bad_Boyok, I'll look intop that. TY15:29
Detroit_Bad_BoyThat seems to be a windows app15:33

soeeDetroit_Bad_Boy: maked it executable ?15:45
Detroit_Bad_Boysoee: I downloaded Etcher. Kubuntu came back with "This is an executable file." Then it went on to explain how Kubuntu has disabled it for safety. I am a newbie15:48
EuroTrashWhy not just troubleshoot unetbootin? It works fine, normally.15:54
EuroTrashAnd it isn't that complicated, makes me wonder whether there isn't something else wrong.,15:55
EuroTrashE.g. bad iso or something.15:55
Detroit_Bad_BoyEuroTrash: I declined UnetBootin due to the site for this OS telling me it has problems running the live cd thru unetbootin. I was told to try other options15:57
EuroTrashOh huh15:57
Detroit_Bad_BoyEuroTrash: I verified the checksum. It's good15:57
EuroTrashWhat's up with that15:58
Detroit_Bad_BoyEuroTrash: it's Manjaro15:58
Detroit_Bad_BoyEuroTrash: I'll just wait until I can get a DVD I can burn it to16:06
EuroTrashBeen a _long_ time since I've burned optical media.16:07

rolloIn Dolphin, the KDEConnect "Send to"  context menu item has disappeared on both my 16.04 machines.  Anyone else?  Suggestions?21:38
YankDownUnderrollo: Is this recent - and have you done any updates since the issue started happening?21:46
rolloYankDownUnder: I think it started a few updates ago, perhaps while still on 15.10.21:50
YankDownUnderrollo: Ok...so here's a question - what version of Plasma are you running right now? (Check in the "Info Centre")21:50
rollo5.6.521:51
YankDownUnderrollo: Ok...so that's fair enough...you're up to date - that's what I was getting at...coolbeans...21:51
rolloYankDownUnder: This definitely started before I added the backports repo21:51
YankDownUnderrollo: Right oh - just checking something, mate - hang on a tick...21:53

YankDownUnderrollo: I'm looking in "Dolphin" and I can't seem to locate anything to do withh "KDE Connect" in the least...where *was* that supposed to be?21:55
rolloYankDownUnder: in the Dolphin UI? Only when KDEconnect is connected to a device, it should appear in the context menu when right-clicking a file. IIR, it was in the lower half at the top level. (It's been a while since I've seen it)21:57
YankDownUnderrollo: Right oh...hang on...going to attach something...21:58
YankDownUnderrollo: Well, can't seem to get my ancient tablet to talk - right oh...22:08
rolloYankDownUnder: Thanks for taking the time to look at this.  Anything I can check on this end?22:09
YankDownUnderrollo: With the KDE connect - I'll assume that your machine and device are showing up properly in the KDE connect dialogue, hmm?22:10
rolloYankDownUnder: correct, although it sometimes takes a while22:10
rolloYankDownUnder: when this was working, the context menu item would appear shortly after the connection was established22:11
YankDownUnderrollo: So currently - when things ARE connected, are you even getting the dialogue showing up?22:12
rolloYankDownUnder: Everything else seems to work the same as before (modulo new features). No "Send to" dolphin context item, other dialogues seem about the same22:15
YankDownUnderrollo: This has me scratching my head, bro...have you looked through the "wiki" - because obviously it's not only affecting YOU, it would be affecting quite a number of folks...22:16
rolloYankDownUnder: is there a specific dialogue you were referring to?22:16
YankDownUnderrollo: The "Send to..." => because if it's not showing up, well, that would surprise a large audience...and therefore, in the wiki, there'd be far more information than on here...as most "linux" users aren't familiar with IRC, but they'd get on the wiki quickly enough, hmm...22:18

YankDownUnderphodius: Kicker for Gnome? Er...installing KDE/Plasma alongside Gnome is a bit tricky...at best...22:24
phodiusi use to have a kicker from kde4 till i updated to ub 16.0422:25
phodiusdoh!22:25
phodiusis there any plasma-desktop i can intergrate with UB 16.0422:26
phodiusam currently making one though just need  one in the mean time22:27
YankDownUnderphodius: I tried this originally - and found that - from a realistic standpoint - getting anything Gnome/Unity to work along with KDE/Plasma was an error-ridden journey - however, that being said, I did get Cinnamon and Mate to be happy with KDE/Plasma...22:27
phodiuscinnamon Mate and  kde sounds like a great combo22:29
phodiusULTRA ULTRA22:29
YankDownUnderphodius: Cinnamon is actually quite cool - a reminder of what Gnome *was* like "back in the day" - and is a happy chappy with KDE/Plasma...22:35
