| momoe | Question time: I have a bunch of .zip files I'd like to rename to .cbz can anyone suggest an solution to this? | 00:48 |
| momoe | in Kubuntu, I'm guessing it could be a Konsole command? | 00:49 |
| Unit193 | `rename -v 's/.zip/.cbz/g' *.zip` | 00:49 |
| momoe | ty @Unit193, I'll give that a try | 00:49 |
| Unit193 | You can use more anchoring if needed. | 00:50 |

| konrados | Morning :) | 06:16 |
| konrados | When I came to work, I saw my PC is ON, I usually hibernate it, how can I check easily, whether I did it or not? Or remember there is some log file which can tell me this, but I can't recall its name. | 06:21 |
| konrados | *I remember there is some... | 06:21 |
| hateball | konrados: "last" | 06:22 |
| hateball | that shows session starts, not sure if you can tell from that | 06:22 |
| konrados | hateball, why isn't this chronological: https://gist.github.com/konrados/d677b26b26e3167bce9816ba7e9a5a25 ? | 06:24 |
| konrados | OK, nvm, it is :) | 06:25 |
| konrados | Thanks hateball :) | 06:25 |
| konrados | No, not nvm, where is today's day? I've just logged in... | 06:26 |
| konrados | And we have Tuesday today, right, hateball ? :) | 06:27 |
| Quantos | I want to know how to disable KUbuntu from looking for or trying to use my nonexistent swap file | 06:29 |
| hateball | konrados: At least I have tuesday | 06:32 |
| hateball | Quantos: Do you have entries for swap in /etc/fstab ? | 06:32 |
| konrados | So why is it missing, hateball? It starts from Monday. | 06:32 |
| Quantos | Umm, that I'm not sure about hateball | 06:32 |
| Quantos | Would I be better off just recreating a swap partition hateball? | 06:33 |
| Quantos | And using swappiness? | 06:33 |
| Quantos | hateball, I'm in the /etc/fstab what am I looking for? | 06:39 |
| hateball | konrados: well you probably havent made any new sessions today? open a terminal and run bash, or switch to a tty and log in, that should make a new one | 06:48 |
| konrados | sec... | 06:48 |
| hateball | konrados: and since you have sessions since thursday still logged in, that seems like the machine hasnt been shut down at least. but I also dont use suspend so I dunno how it adds itself | 06:48 |
| hateball | Quantos: well do you have any line related to swap? Feel free to pastebin the contents | 06:49 |
| hateball | Quantos: I personally dont use swap at all, but some think you should have at least a small swap space | 06:50 |
| Quantos | Yeah, I'm just going to resize it down to 2GB and reset the swappiness | 06:51 |
| Quantos | The pros and cons make that a safe bet at least | 06:51 |
| konrados | I ran the terminal, logged in as sudo, logged out, still nothing, hateball :) Isn't there any other way? | 06:51 |
| hateball | konrados: well there is /var/log/auth.log | 06:53 |
| hateball | Quantos: you only really need it if you dont have much RAM, and it is needed if you intend to hibernate | 06:53 |
| Quantos | Nah, I don't hibernate and RAM is cheap | 06:53 |
| konrados | hateball, is this normal: https://gist.github.com/konrados/b67f6b391002b94dd7ee72038f6ca238 logging in/out every n minutes. I didn't do that, really... something's wroing here imho... | 06:56 |
| hateball | konrados: got any cron jobs running every minute? | 06:57 |
| konrados | hateball, no I have a cron running every morning (once). | 06:57 |
| konrados | Unless, someone in the office is making fun of me, and when I was not logged out they did something :) sec... | 06:58 |
| konrados | hateball, this is my cron.daily dir, I had no idea I have so many of them, is this normal: https://gist.github.com/konrados/4dc982af6fa0aac087af4ed438d6f01a ? | 07:09 |
| hateball | konrados: sure, depends what services you have obviously :) | 07:15 |
| konrados | hateball, OK, although I only have apache/mysql/php I don't remember installing anything else, except for some "usual" soft for development. | 07:17 |

| CQ | I have a Mobo with 6 SATA connections, and had cables on all of them. When I had my old HDD attached, the termination was apparently enough.

| mixxit | i have a few questions as a new kubuntu user | 17:38 |
| Dr_Coke | Yeah thanks | 17:38 |
| Dr_Coke | I found it | 17:38 |
| mgolden_ | mixxit: shoot | 17:39 |
| mixxit | ok first up is firefox when i drag a tab out it doesnt do anything | 17:39 |
| mixxit | i see the shadow appear as if its going to drag out but it doesnt | 17:40 |
| mgolden_ | It creates a new window for me if I drop it out of th browser. | 17:40 |
| mgolden_ | You on 16.04 or 14.04? | 17:41 |
| mixxit | im on xenial | 17:41 |
| mixxit | 14.06.1 | 17:41 |
| mixxit | 16.04.1 | 17:41 |
| mixxit | firefox 48.0 | 17:41 |
| mgolden_ | I don't have it in front of me. | 17:42 |
| mgolden_ | I believe you can drag tabs around in 16.04.1 | 17:42 |
| mixxit | if i drag the tab out and drop it onto itself it will pop out | 17:43 |
| mixxit | but when i drag to a blank area of the desktop it doenst | 17:43 |
| mgolden_ | I can't check 16.04 right now. At work I have 14.04 | 17:45 |
| mixxit | ok well i will look more into that one | 17:47 |
| mixxit | my next problem is my laptops fn keys dont work | 17:47 |
| mixxit | my audio ones do but my screen brightness dont | 17:48 |
| mgolden_ | That depends on the particular machine | 17:49 |
| mgolden_ | You can use the control in the system tray | 17:50 |
| mixxit | its a gp62 6qf msi | 17:50 |
| mgolden_ | I suspect you could set it up if you figure out the codes being sent | 17:50 |
| mgolden_ | I have never done it | 17:50 |
| mixxit | ok | 17:50 |
| mixxit | also my windows key i expected to open the K menu | 17:51 |
| mixxit | but it doesnt, any idea how i can get that doing that? | 17:51 |
| mgolden_ | Look in system settings, shortcuts and gestures | 17:51 |
| mparillo | I think the official KDE answer under X-windows is you cannot; only as part of a key chord. But, if you do not mind losing upstream support, you can try ksuperkey | 17:52 |
| mgolden_ | In 14.04 there's a setting for Global Keyboard Shortcuts, and there's an action for Activate Application Launcher Menu Widget | 17:55 |
| mixxit | yeah im there now but when i select windows button it shows as the 'meta' hey but resets when i release the windows key | 17:56 |
| mgolden_ | it's in Plasma Desktop Shell | 17:56 |
| mixxit | key* | 17:56 |
| mgolden_ | You hit Windows (AKA Meta) then type a letter | 17:57 |
| mgolden_ | Meta is a modifier | 17:57 |
| mixxit | damn | 17:57 |
| mgolden_ | It looks like the right windows key isn't a meta | 17:58 |
| mparillo | I set mine to <alt>F1, which is pretty common in KDE land. | 17:58 |
| mparillo | https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=89&t=39073 | 17:59 |
| mparillo | https://launchpad.net/~mehanik/+archive/ubuntu/ksuperkey | 18:00 |
| mixxit | oh cool | 18:01 |
| mparillo | But be careful. Upstream does not like ksuperkey, so if you experience any strangeness, you are on your own. | 18:02 |
| mixxit | who is upstream | 18:02 |
| mparillo | KDE Devel | 18:03 |
| mixxit | oh the next version | 18:03 |
| mixxit | yep that fixed it | 18:03 |
| mixxit | ok so apparently the firefox bug is fixed in the next version of plasma | 18:04 |
| mixxit | in 5.6 | 18:04 |
| mixxit | can i get that on my current version of kubuntu? | 18:05 |
| mixxit | oh grabbing the backport now | 18:06 |

| mixxit | i messed with mouse sensitivity and nowit wont reset back | 18:11 |
| mixxit | gonna try a restart | 18:11 |

| mixxit | ok so that didnt fix firefox | 18:19 |
| mixxit | also power setting screen brightness slider doesnt work | 18:20 |
| Dr_Coke | I installed the latest nvidia drivers and my desktop has massive fonts | 18:21 |
| Dr_Coke | how do i fix that | 18:21 |

| mgolden_ | Coming and going | 18:24 |
| mgolden_ | I had some problems with Firefox font sizes with the nVidia driver | 18:24 |
| mgolden_ | There's a setting in FF that fixes it | 18:24 |
| mgolden_ | You can fix the desktop fonts in system settings | 18:25 |
| mgolden_ | but FF still had some issues. | 18:25 |
| mgolden_ | If you google it you'll find the discussion | 18:25 |
| mgolden_ | mixxit: You need to hit the apply button, it doesn't slide real time | 18:26 |
| mixxit | i did | 18:26 |
| mixxit | i dragged it too high and it wouldnt go back down after applying | 18:26 |
| mixxit | i hit default then apply and still the same | 18:26 |
| mixxit | so i rebooted and it was ok | 18:26 |
| mixxit | oh sorry mgolden_, i though you were referring to my issue with mouse slider | 18:29 |
| mixxit | apply does nothing with screen brightness | 18:29 |
| CQ | mgolden_: the problem is actually not that, but worse... if I plug in one or two SSDs I get the failure. If I also plug in a HDD (just power, not data) then it works. So it's something with the power supply loading. | 18:31 |
| mixxit | there is nothing in my /sys/class/backlight folder | 18:31 |
| mgolden_ | I am currently on 14.04, so I can't check | 18:33 |
| mgolden_ | It works for me IIRC on 16.04 too | 18:34 |
| mixxit | im going to try this grub boot flag of acpi_backlight=vebdor | 18:34 |
| mgolden_ | But check that you're in the right power profile | 18:34 |

| Unit193 | tl;dr, read /usr/share/doc/udev/README.Debian.gz for the best results, I recommend the symlink or creating the file yourself (best option) | 21:53 |
| Doyle | I won't bother. It was just annoying me having to lookup the interface name on single interface machines rather than typing wlan0 | 21:58 |
