ZrenNot_a_Robot, When you right click, do you get a menu?01:30
Not_a_RobotZren: yes, yes. I change it there, but nothing happens (I use an external monitor). I would like to find another  way, maybe using the terminal or something, I don't know.01:34
ZrenAh, so you don't get a right click menu when you click on that monitor's "wallpaper"?01:35
ZrenSounds like plasmashell crashed then.01:35
Zrenkquitapp plasmashell; plasmashell & disown01:37
ZrenNot_a_Robot,01:37
ZrenOh I totally misunderstood, you do get a menu01:37
Not_a_RobotZren: I get the menu, yes.01:37
Zrenhmmm01:37
Not_a_RobotWhat I say is that setting the wallpaper there01:37
Not_a_Robotdoes not work01:37
Not_a_RobotAh ok, sorry xD01:38
Zrenwhat filetype? Not_a_Robot01:38
Not_a_Robotboth png and jpg01:38
Zrenwallpaper type = Image01:38
Zrenpositiong = ?01:38
Zrenis the file on a different drive? (grasping at straws)01:39
Not_a_Robothttp://uploadpie.com/2YwqC01:39
Not_a_RobotIs not related to the files, really.01:39
Not_a_RobotThe issue is related to plasma or whatever because this is a problem I didn't have before01:40
Not_a_Robotweeks ago I had wallpapers01:40
Zrenhave you relogged since this occured?01:40
Not_a_Robotyes01:40
Not_a_Robotrebooted, etc01:40
Zrenso it's persistent, odd01:40
Zrentry changing to folder view01:41
Not_a_RobotI updated the system too but nothing01:41
Not_a_Robotok01:41
ZrenLayout = folder01:41
Not_a_RobotMeh... nothing ^^' I tried everything before asking xDD01:42
Not_a_RobotDo you know01:42
Not_a_Robotif there is a file01:42
Not_a_Robotwhere I can set the wallpaper manually?01:42
Zren~/.config/org.kde.plasma-applets or some such01:43
Zrenis where it's saved01:43
Zrenbut you'd need to edit it while plasma isn't running for it to take effect01:43
Not_a_RobotOh,,,01:43
Zrensince it writes tot it on save01:43
Zrenyeaaaaaah. tis annoying.01:44
Zrenopen it in your text editor, then run kquitapp plasmashell01:44
Zrenthen: plasmashell & disown (after you save)01:45
Zren~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc01:45
Zrentbh Not_a_Robot, you have multiple monitors right?01:49
Not_a_RobotI have an 17" laptop and a 55" UHD monitor01:49
Not_a_Robotbut I don't use the laptop screen01:50
Not_a_RobotI just disable it01:50
ZrenJust checking, but the contents of your ~/Desktop folder are now shown on the desktop right?01:52
ZrenDoes reenabling the other screen show your wallpaper?01:53
Not_a_RobotNope and nope01:53
Not_a_RobotxD01:53
Not_a_RobotIn the past01:53
Not_a_Robotwhat I did was01:53
ZrenI know there was a few screen related problems in kde.01:53
Not_a_Robotto set the main screen on the laptop01:53
Not_a_Robotand then change it again01:53
Not_a_Robotand the wallpaper issue was solved01:54
Not_a_Robotbut now, even that, is not enough01:54

IrcsomeBot<her01> How to set a default boot on dual boot machine?06:15
hateballDo you want it to be permanent?06:16
hateballYou can either make an entry permanent, or you can have grub remember the last used06:16
IrcsomeBot<her01> @hateball, yes, I want it06:17
hateballWhich one? One always permanent, or remember last used?06:19
IrcsomeBot<her01> @hateball, permanent one06:20
hateballwell, you will need to edit /etc/default/grub and change GRUB_DEFAULT=0 to the entry you want06:24
hateballwhere 0 is the first entry in the generated /boot/grub/grub.cfg06:24
hateballit's quite a headache, I think06:25
IrcsomeBot<her01> @hateball, I have done. But nothing change. Can you show me an axample code, please?06:25
hateballafter you've made the change you need to run "sudo update-grub" to generate a new grub.cfg06:26
IrcsomeBot<her01> @hateball, ok thanks... I'll try it...06:28
hateballpersonally I would just use "GRUB_DEFAULT=saved" and add the line "GRUB_SAVEDEFAULT=true"06:29
hateballthat way it will remember what you booted last and continue using that until you manually switch06:29
IrcsomeBot<her01> @hateball, oh... I see... I didn't add that line... OK thanks again...06:30
IrcsomeBot<her01> @hateball, it work... thanks...06:38

atdprhsHi, I made a backup copy using kubuntu before reinstallation, I copied my home folder (unencrypted) to my external hdd, unfortionately I didn't check whether or not the files has been moved08:54
atdprhsI reinstalled my kubuntu, and then when I visited the folder, it has all of the subfolders but no single file?08:54
atdprhsSo Unfortionately I do not have any files, this is really sad and disturbing :(08:55
atdprhsInterestingly when I view folder's properties, I see it says > 5 GB and > 25k files08:56

paranoidabhihi17:40
paranoidabhiwhich kde version will be shipped with kubuntu 16.10?17:40
paranoidabhiany upcoming backports for kubuntu 16.04? Was hoping to get in on the multi-monitor bug-fixes.17:41
=== Shiva is now known as TreeOfLife
valorieparanoidabhi: do you have backports enabled?20:19
valoriefor 16.0420:19
valoriefor 16.10, we have plasma 5.7.2 I believe20:20
valoriewe might get 5.74 in, if possible20:20
paranoidabhivalorie, yes I have them enabled.20:20
valorie5.8 soon after release, in backports20:20
valoriewe have to get YY out the door first, and it's been slow for a great number of reasons20:21
paranoidabhivalorie, awesome, so sometime in Nov?20:21
valorie5.8 is being released right now, so yes, soon20:22
valorieno efforts on that right now, beyond letting it build automatically in our CI20:22
acheronuk 5.8 will have 3 bugfix updates in October (5.8.1 to 5.8.3), so there will be a lot of updates to package20:24
acheronukthough point releases should be minimal effort20:25
