[12:29] <BluesKaj> hiyas all
[14:58] <Detroit_Bad_Boy> Hi 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 forums
[15:28] <Detroit_Bad_Boy> Hi 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)?
[15:29] <soee> Detroit_Bad_Boy: try https://www.etcher.io
[15:29] <Detroit_Bad_Boy> ok, I'll look intop that. TY
[15:33] <Detroit_Bad_Boy> That seems to be a windows app
[15:34] <Detroit_Bad_Boy> soee: that seems to be a windows app
[15:36] <soee> you can download itfor linux
[15:37] <BluesKaj-pi> Detroit_Bad_Boy,  dd works, check it out
[15:39] <Detroit_Bad_Boy> BluesKaj-pi: I downloaded it. I used the chmod command. I got no file found
[15:41] <BluesKaj-pi> Detroit_Bad_Boy,  http://superuser.com/questions/351814/how-to-copy-an-iso-image-onto-usb-with-dd
[15:45] <soee> Detroit_Bad_Boy: maked it executable ?
[15:48] <Detroit_Bad_Boy> soee: 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 newbie
[15:54] <EuroTrash> Why not just troubleshoot unetbootin? It works fine, normally.
[15:55] <EuroTrash> And it isn't that complicated, makes me wonder whether there isn't something else wrong.,
[15:55] <EuroTrash> E.g. bad iso or something.
[15:57] <Detroit_Bad_Boy> EuroTrash: 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 options
[15:57] <EuroTrash> Oh huh
[15:57] <Detroit_Bad_Boy> EuroTrash: I verified the checksum. It's good
[15:58] <EuroTrash> What's up with that
[15:58] <Detroit_Bad_Boy> EuroTrash: it's Manjaro
[16:06] <Detroit_Bad_Boy> EuroTrash: I'll just wait until I can get a DVD I can burn it to
[16:07] <EuroTrash> Been a _long_ time since I've burned optical media.
[16:07] <EuroTrash> But hey
[17:12] <johns_> what do I do if systemd doesn' t run vgchange -ay at boot causing systemd to fail?

[17:23] <johns_> I fixed it by removing /lib/systemd/system/lvm2.service and removing --sysinit from /etc/init.d/lvm2, thanks.

[21:38] <rollo> In Dolphin, the KDEConnect "Send to"  context menu item has disappeared on both my 16.04 machines.  Anyone else?  Suggestions?
[21:46] <YankDownUnder> rollo: Is this recent - and have you done any updates since the issue started happening?
[21:50] <rollo> YankDownUnder: I think it started a few updates ago, perhaps while still on 15.10.
[21:50] <YankDownUnder> rollo: Ok...so here's a question - what version of Plasma are you running right now? (Check in the "Info Centre")
[21:51] <rollo> 5.6.5
[21:51] <YankDownUnder> rollo: Ok...so that's fair enough...you're up to date - that's what I was getting at...coolbeans...
[21:51] <rollo> YankDownUnder: This definitely started before I added the backports repo
[21:53] <YankDownUnder> rollo: Right oh - just checking something, mate - hang on a tick...
[21:55] <YankDownUnder> rollo: 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?
[21:57] <rollo> YankDownUnder: 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)
[21:58] <YankDownUnder> rollo: Right oh...hang on...going to attach something...
[22:08] <YankDownUnder> rollo: Well, can't seem to get my ancient tablet to talk - right oh...
[22:09] <rollo> YankDownUnder: Thanks for taking the time to look at this.  Anything I can check on this end?
[22:10] <YankDownUnder> rollo: With the KDE connect - I'll assume that your machine and device are showing up properly in the KDE connect dialogue, hmm?
[22:10] <rollo> YankDownUnder: correct, although it sometimes takes a while
[22:11] <rollo> YankDownUnder: when this was working, the context menu item would appear shortly after the connection was established
[22:12] <YankDownUnder> rollo: So currently - when things ARE connected, are you even getting the dialogue showing up?
[22:15] <rollo> YankDownUnder: Everything else seems to work the same as before (modulo new features). No "Send to" dolphin context item, other dialogues seem about the same
[22:16] <YankDownUnder> rollo: 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] <rollo> YankDownUnder: is there a specific dialogue you were referring to?
[22:18] <YankDownUnder> rollo: 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...
[22:20] <phodius> is there a plasma kde 5 kicker i can put in my gnome sess?
[22:23] <phodius> anyone know?
[22:23] <phodius> maybe the drone knows
[22:24] <rollo> sorry, got knocked offline for a few minutes.
[22:24] <YankDownUnder> phodius: Kicker for Gnome? Er...installing KDE/Plasma alongside Gnome is a bit tricky...at best...
[22:25] <phodius> i use to have a kicker from kde4 till i updated to ub 16.04
[22:25] <phodius> doh!
[22:26] <phodius> is there any plasma-desktop i can intergrate with UB 16.04
[22:27] <phodius> am currently making one though just need  one in the mean time
[22:27] <YankDownUnder> phodius: 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...
[22:29] <phodius> cinnamon Mate and  kde sounds like a great combo
[22:29] <phodius> ULTRA ULTRA
[22:35] <YankDownUnder> phodius: Cinnamon is actually quite cool - a reminder of what Gnome *was* like "back in the day" - and is a happy chappy with KDE/Plasma...
