[03:55] <eduslack> Hello! I migrated from Ubuntu to Kubuntu by installing the kubuntu-desktop package. I had several problems at the end of the process the majority of which I managed to fix.One of the problems I could not solve it on the Kontact application icon that is next to the clock. It is hidden, it appears the space but not the icon.Please someone knows how to solve this problem?
[07:29] <momoe> To whom it may concern, the Kubuntu.com RSS news feed was updated recently and has broken the XML parsing, http://imgur.com/a/OEK7u

[07:32] <valorie> ahoneybun: ^^^^
[07:32] <valorie> momoe: thank you
[07:33] <valorie> if you want to, you could actually add a trello card for it

[10:07] <_thelion_> Hi, since yesterday baloo-file-indexer is running "mad". It's using nealry 30% of my RAM (8GB). This is annoying cause I'm writing my thesis on Kile, and baloo is slowing down all processes. What can I do? Shut down baloo? Will krunner still work if i shut down baloo
[10:08] <_thelion_> ?
[10:10] <_thelion_> Or is it better to wait until baloo has finished its work?
[10:11] <JohnDroid> I never understood what baloo is for, and during 2 month, after I boot up my PC every morning I killed the baloo process
[10:12] <JohnDroid> because it was eating 1 CPU core at 100% like yoéu
[10:12] <soee> thelionroars: disable file search
[10:13] <soee> in System Settings -> Search -> File Search
[10:13] <soee> baloo extracts files metadata, indexes files etc.
[10:16] <_thelion_> Done, i disabled file search. Thanks a lot :) - is rebooting necessary?
[11:15] <ahoneybun> valorie: not sure about that error as all the lines look the same so it might have been there before I edited it
[11:22] <jorgebueno> hi all
[11:22] <hateball> hello
[11:24] <jorgebueno> when I double click to add sharedfolder opens a text file ¿how can I change association to execute and add my sharedfolders?
[11:34] <BluesKaj> 'Morning all
[11:35] <jorgebueno> anyone can tell me what application associated has "Add net folders"?
[11:37] <BluesKaj> jorgebueno, dolphin network> netattach
[11:38] <BluesKaj> err knetattach
[11:39] <jorgebueno> BluesKaj: Thank you. It solves my problem.
[11:39] <BluesKaj> or dolphin betwork>add network folder if you're looking for the method, jorgebueno
[11:39] <BluesKaj> network
[11:39] <jorgebueno> BluesKaj: The problem was it opens the text editor.
[11:40] <BluesKaj> what does?
[11:40] <jorgebueno> BluesKaj: I add knetattach as default application and it works
[11:44] <BluesKaj> jorgebueno, yes that's the correct path
[11:51] <jemand> Hi, any hints how to fix or reinstall ballon search?
[11:51] <jemand> baloon
[12:00] <hateball> jemand: Can you elaborate? What is not working as intended?
[12:04] <jemand> After system starts baloon_search comes up with a crash  That's  about all
[12:06] <hateball> jemand: well you can start fresh by "balooctl disable && balooctl enable"
[12:06] <hateball> jemand: and then check on things with balooctl status
[12:06] <jemand> it crashes at once again
[12:08] <hateball> jemand: do you have a default ~/.config/baloofilerc or have you made any manual changes or so?
[12:08] <jemand> default
[12:09] <hateball> jemand: after you run "balooctl disable" do you have any running baloo process?
[12:10] <hateball> check with ps aux|grep baloo
[12:11] <jemand> still on:  /usr/bin/baloo_file     /usr/bin/baloo_file_extractor
[12:13] <hateball> jemand: try restarting your session after disabling, then log in and enable
[12:13] <jemand> ok
[12:17] <viewer|5118> hi, I'm rather new to Kubuntu (but not to Linux) and I'm wondering why I'm not seeing administrator settings (user management, login manager configuration, etc.) in systemsettings

[13:34] <user|28280> I have an issue with single-click vs double-click settings in Kubuntu 16.04 (Plasma 5.6). I have configured the mouse settings to use double-click to open items. Dolphin is fine with this setting, but some external apps use instead the single-click to open items, such as in the file browser of Clementine (Media player) or open dialog of Libreoffice
[13:34] <user|28280> . If I configure single-click to open items, the situation is upside-down: Dolphin uses single-click to open items as expected, but Clementine et al double-click instead. Any idea of the issue? Bug https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=343418 mentions some packaging issue with Kubuntu: qt4 library libkde.so is missing (fomerly part of kde-workspace-
[13:34] <user|28280> bin trusty package).
[16:57] <jubo2> hmm..
[16:58] <jubo2> that UbuntuBSD installer wasn't very kind
[16:58] <jubo2> wiped at least GRUB from /dev/sda, maybe more
[16:58] <jubo2> I am in LiveCD. What do I do?
[16:59] <jubo2> or do I need to tell I want maintenance mode or something like that?
[16:59] <jubo2> I cannot see "grubtool" or whatevs it is called
[16:59] <jubo2> maybe command line
[16:59] <jubo2> I reboot and see the options
[17:01] <jubo2> Okk..
[17:02] <jubo2> I search engine for "reinstall grub, someone nuked my MBR"
[17:06] <jubohi> mm.. got irc,these instructions http://howtoubuntu.org/how-to-repair-restore-reinstall-grub-2-with-a-ubuntu-live-cd and some shells
[17:06] <jubohi> I think I am good to go
[17:07] <jubohi> I just hope that nasty nasty UbuntuBSD.iso didn't do further damage to my data
[17:13] <jubohi> Yep.
[17:13] <jubohi> UbuntuBSD apparently viciously attacked the system in /dev/sda1
[17:14] <jubohi> not nice.  nooooot nice.
[17:14] <momoe> [00:33] <valorie> if you want to, you could actually add a trello card for it
[17:15] <momoe> Question, but what is a "trello card" google search turned up obscure results
[17:15] <jubohi> Now grub-install says the /dev/sda is Ext2 and does not support something error error error
[17:15] <jubohi> I did not need this
[17:15] <jubohi> I have many many other things to do
[17:16] <jubohi> I gonna tell them in #ubuntubsd. But only after I have resolved this that my main client system is ok
[17:23] <jubohi> what happens if I write
[17:23] <jubohi> grub-install --force /dev/sda
[17:24] <jubohi> The thing without the force complains some rubbish about EXT2 system
[17:26] <jubohi> I did a
[17:26] <jubohi> grub-install --force --verbose /dev/sda
[17:26] <jubohi> I reboot now
[17:33] <jubo2> Progress. Original Kubuntu16.04 boots but no GRUB menu
[17:34] <jubo2> I should something ... rescan the partitions with some tool that will then update the menu with the proper items
[17:34] <jubo2> I think the 'grub-install --force --verbose /dev/sda' did a minimal thing
[17:37] <jubo2> seems to be 'sudo update-grub'
[17:37] <jubo2> yep
[17:37] <jubo2> that scanned 'em
[17:37] <jubo2> I reboot to see if it works now
[17:38] <BluesKaj-pi> reset the time out
[17:42] <mparillo> momoe: Until valorie returns, she means a kan ban board something like this one: https://trello.com/b/lAVvKdKF/kubuntu
[17:43] <jubo2> nope
[17:43] <jubo2> 'sudo grub-update' runs just fine, no errors but the menu where I can select between normal and low latency kernel or memtest86 or whatevs
[17:44] <jubo2> that does not appear after BIOS has booted
[17:47] <BluesKaj-pi>  jubo2 what about the shift key hold down right after the bios page
[17:48] <jubo2> BluesKaj-pi: I dunno. I normal boot now and see what happen
[17:48] <jubo2> BluesKaj-pi: Yeay for pi
[17:48] <BluesKaj-pi> :-)
[17:52] <jubo2> BluesKaj-pi: Pressing shift did indeed bring the proper GRUB menu up. What is the indication and the ultimate fix?
[17:53]  * jubo2 /j #ubuntubsd
[17:57] <jubo2> Okk..
[17:58] <jubo2> I've made my complaint at #ubuntubsd about their thing nuking perfectly nice GRUB from the /dev/sda
[17:58] <jubo2> BluesKaj-pi: I would like the GRUB menu to come up always. Is possible plos?
[18:01] <jubo2> Ait
[18:02] <jubo2> I did some creative commenting out of guessed lines in 'sudo nano /etc/default/grub'
[18:02] <jubo2> rebootzeit!
[18:06] <BluesKaj-pi> comment the hidden timeout line like so: #GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0
[18:07] <BluesKaj-pi> jubo2,^
[18:07] <BluesKaj-pi> in /etc/default/grub
[18:07] <jubo2> I did
[18:07] <jubo2> no avail
[18:08] <depptrap> hi, how can I disable the clipboard application ? The mentioned files in the docs unter /autostart are not there
[18:08] <jubo2> but I did comment out an another line as well
[18:08] <jubo2> maybe that was wrong
[18:08] <jubo2> BluesKaj-pi: I have '#GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true'
[18:08] <BluesKaj-pi> odd it works here, did you sudo update-grub after the edit?
[18:08] <depptrap> (KUbuntu 16.04 and under background tasks the clipboard application is also not listed)
[18:08] <jubo2> I should prlly uncomment and switch to false
[18:09] <BluesKaj-pi> no update grub
[18:09] <jubo2> ok. I did that
[18:09] <BluesKaj-pi> should work now
[18:09] <jubo2> Ok thanks BluesKaj-pi
[18:09] <jubo2> I reboot to check
[18:09] <BluesKaj-pi> np
[18:14] <jubo2> thanks BluesKaj-pi. that fixed it
[18:14] <BluesKaj-pi> ok , good
[18:14] <jubo2> I gonna go boot the secondary OS now and run updates on it while I'm at copper
[18:15] <jubo2> Our copper just got better
[18:15] <jubo2> but price is high
[18:15] <jubo2> 24 month deal
[18:15] <jubo2> 50€ / month
[18:15] <jubo2> 1000 / 10 Mbit / s
[18:15] <jubo2> Not gonna buy at that price
[18:15] <BluesKaj-pi> copper for?
[18:15] <jubo2> laters piippöls
[18:16] <jubo2> BluesKaj-pi: Copper to the building connexion box room
[18:16] <jubo2> fiber from thereon
[18:16] <BluesKaj-pi> ok
[18:17] <mgolden_> depptrap: You want to hide it in the system tray?
[18:18] <depptrap_> How can I disable the clipboard application to autostart in Kubunt 16.04 ? The config files mentioned in the docs are not existing on my System and the Applcation is not mentioned in the "Background Tasks" view. I cannot allow this application to track my Passwordmanager's usage.
[18:19] <depptrap_> *My usage of the PW manager.
[18:19] <mgolden_> depptrap: what clipboard application are you talking about? klipper?
[18:20] <depptrap_> mgolden_: ah yes
[18:20] <depptrap_> mgolden_: sorry, forgot the name..
[18:20] <depptrap_> mgolden_: I've searched yesterday for 3h and then gave up
[18:20] <mgolden_> So are you copy pasting passwords?
[18:20] <depptrap_> mgolden_: exactly, the auto type function isn't working everytime
[18:21] <depptrap_> mgolden_: but KeePass is running on most systems and has a merge function, plus it's having all features I want
[18:21] <mgolden_> Why don't you just go into klipper and set the clipboard history size to 1?
[18:21] <depptrap_> mgolden_: then I've at least 1 inside it
[18:21] <depptrap_> mgolden_: I've even tried what happens when I set it to 0, but that doesn't work reliable
[18:22] <mgolden_> Do you not want to have copy/paste on the desktop at all?
[18:22] <mgolden_> Because in any desktop you'll have a copy-paste functionality
[18:22] <depptrap_> mgolden_: I don't want it to be achieved
[18:23] <depptrap_> mgolden_: I don't wand klipper to run
[18:23] <mgolden_> And you can always find out what's in the buffer by going to a window and typing ^V
[18:23] <depptrap_> KeePass automatically cleans the clipboard after x-seconds, but klipper doesn't care
[18:23] <depptrap_> (obviously)
[18:24] <depptrap_> mgolden_: I'm well aware that the clipboard is user-wide read/write, even more a reason to not let an application write all this stuff to the disk
[18:24] <depptrap_> or should I create a job that tracks klipper's files, and overwrites them completely with zeros after every logout ?!
[18:26] <depptrap_> mgolden_: Scenario: I'm using the PW manager to login into smth. Then I let sb else search after something in the browser. Ooops, for the current session klipper still has the passwords in it's cache, what a shame.
[18:26] <mgolden_> Not sure I know how to help
[18:26] <mgolden_> Did you see this thread?
[18:26] <mgolden_> https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=66&t=128086
[18:27] <depptrap_> mgolden_:
[18:27] <depptrap_> Yupp, seems some genius moved klipper into the plasmashell processs.
[18:27] <depptrap_> While it can be disabled, it still tracks the clipboard
[18:29] <depptrap_> -> this "tracking" app is hardcoded into plasma now
[18:29] <depptrap_> (I've already feard this, after I coudlN't grep it in the process tree)
[18:47] <Panther96> Hi, so I've never used kubuntu and for some reason it doesn't show an option for "using free space on disk" like most distros. How do I setup my partitions manually considering I am dual booting with UEFI Windows 10?
[18:49] <BluesKaj-pi> !UEFI  | Panther96
[18:49] <Panther96> I've tried reading the guides online so I have an EXT4 partition 20gb for root labeled "/", a 8gb swap partition that I don't know how set a mount point for, and a /home partition for the leftovers
[18:50] <Panther96> Do I need a seperate partition table or can it be on the same one as Windows ?
[18:58] <BluesKaj-pi> Panther96, ext4 partitions work on GPT
[19:01] <Panther96> Thanks. And how would I set the swap partition I created to be used by kubuntu?
[19:02] <Panther96> Would I just right click "activate swap" in KDE Partition Manager?
[19:03] <SporkWitch> Panther96: do you not have an entry for swap in /etc/fstab?
[19:04] <SporkWitch> the "right" way would be to add the swap entry and then sudo swapon
[19:05] <SporkWitch> (the entry will be a little trickier if you're using LVM, especially encrypted LVM; also keep that in mind if you ARE using encrypted filesystems: make sure that your swap is inside the encrypted LVM, or you'll end up with plaintext left on the HDD; this is a Bad Thing™)
[19:39] <paranoidabhi> can I install KDE Applications 16.08 in kubuntu 16.04.1
[19:43] <BluesKaj-pi> paranoidabhi, 16.08?
[19:45] <paranoidabhi> BluesKaj-pi, yeah
[19:46] <paranoidabhi> Not sure what you are hinting at. :)
[19:54] <BluesKaj-pi> https://www.kde.org/info/applications-16.07.80.php...assume on can compile and install them on Xenail, which is the latest stable release,
[19:55] <BluesKaj-pi> paranoidabhi,^
[19:55] <BluesKaj-pi> xenial even
[19:56] <BluesKaj-pi> anyway time is up for me..laters
[20:13] <jubo2> Aaaggghhh!!
[20:14] <jubo2> I told them I will into my blog about incident and if they could offer any kind of theoretical model of explanation of what went wrong and it wiped my GRUB
[20:15] <jubo2> They didn't give a noun. One made fun of me.
[20:15] <jubo2> no-one else spoke
[20:15] <jubo2> In the VirtualMachine it seems to mostly work
[20:15] <jubo2> just not Runlevel 6
