[00:44] Guys can you help me? I can't set a wallpaper. I apply the change but nothing... Any idea, please? The wallpaper is just black screen.. === rodolfojcj_ is now known as rodolfojcj === wallas is now known as AdeRoot [01:30] Not_a_Robot, When you right click, do you get a menu? [01:34] Zren: 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. [01:35] Ah, so you don't get a right click menu when you click on that monitor's "wallpaper"? [01:35] Sounds like plasmashell crashed then. [01:37] kquitapp plasmashell; plasmashell & disown [01:37] Not_a_Robot, [01:37] Oh I totally misunderstood, you do get a menu [01:37] Zren: I get the menu, yes. [01:37] hmmm [01:37] What I say is that setting the wallpaper there [01:37] does not work [01:38] Ah ok, sorry xD [01:38] what filetype? Not_a_Robot [01:38] both png and jpg [01:38] wallpaper type = Image [01:38] positiong = ? [01:39] is the file on a different drive? (grasping at straws) [01:39] http://uploadpie.com/2YwqC [01:39] Is not related to the files, really. [01:40] The issue is related to plasma or whatever because this is a problem I didn't have before [01:40] weeks ago I had wallpapers [01:40] have you relogged since this occured? [01:40] yes [01:40] rebooted, etc [01:40] so it's persistent, odd [01:41] try changing to folder view [01:41] I updated the system too but nothing [01:41] ok [01:41] Layout = folder [01:42] Meh... nothing ^^' I tried everything before asking xDD [01:42] Do you know [01:42] if there is a file [01:42] where I can set the wallpaper manually? [01:43] ~/.config/org.kde.plasma-applets or some such [01:43] is where it's saved [01:43] but you'd need to edit it while plasma isn't running for it to take effect [01:43] Oh,,, [01:43] since it writes tot it on save [01:44] yeaaaaaah. tis annoying. [01:44] open it in your text editor, then run kquitapp plasmashell [01:45] then: plasmashell & disown (after you save) [01:45] ~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc [01:49] tbh Not_a_Robot, you have multiple monitors right? [01:49] I have an 17" laptop and a 55" UHD monitor [01:50] but I don't use the laptop screen [01:50] I just disable it [01:52] Just checking, but the contents of your ~/Desktop folder are now shown on the desktop right? [01:53] Does reenabling the other screen show your wallpaper? [01:53] Nope and nope [01:53] xD [01:53] In the past [01:53] what I did was [01:53] I know there was a few screen related problems in kde. [01:53] to set the main screen on the laptop [01:53] and then change it again [01:54] and the wallpaper issue was solved [01:54] but now, even that, is not enough [01:54] Thank you Zren for your help and time, I really appreciate it === whitehat is now known as Guest13318 === wallas is now known as AdeRoot [06:11] her01 was added by: her01 [06:13] Hi...

[06:16] You can either make an entry permanent, or you can have grub remember the last used [06:17] @hateball, yes, I want it [06:19] Which one? One always permanent, or remember last used? [06:20] @hateball, permanent one [06:24] well, you will need to edit /etc/default/grub and change GRUB_DEFAULT=0 to the entry you want [06:24] where 0 is the first entry in the generated /boot/grub/grub.cfg [06:25] it's quite a headache, I think [06:25] @hateball, I have done. But nothing change. Can you show me an axample code, please? [06:26] after you've made the change you need to run "sudo update-grub" to generate a new grub.cfg [06:28] @hateball, ok thanks... I'll try it... [06:29] personally I would just use "GRUB_DEFAULT=saved" and add the line "GRUB_SAVEDEFAULT=true" [06:29] that way it will remember what you booted last and continue using that until you manually switch [06:30] @hateball, oh... I see... I didn't add that line... OK thanks again... [06:38] @hateball, it work... thanks... [06:39] :) [06:45] Installing Beta2 of Yakkety. Wish me luck!

[08:37] sayur: I wonder if you can do it by installing pavucontrol maybe [08:37] and using that [08:37] or straight up use pacmd [08:41] hateball: pavucontrol can do that, yes. click the little shield that says 'lock channels together' to disable that lock [08:42] acheronuk: might want to direct that to sayur :) [08:42] sayur: ^^^ see above [08:42] acheronuk: thanks [08:46] my problem solved thanks acheronuk hateball [08:46] sayur: :) [08:46] sayur: I think the native applet in plasma 5.8 will have better functionality [08:54] Hi, 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 moved [08:54] I reinstalled my kubuntu, and then when I visited the folder, it has all of the subfolders but no single file?

[20:20] 5.8 soon after release, in backports [20:21] we have to get YY out the door first, and it's been slow for a great number of reasons [20:21] valorie, awesome, so sometime in Nov? [20:22] 5.8 is being released right now, so yes, soon [20:22] no efforts on that right now, beyond letting it build automatically in our CI [20:24] 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 package [20:25] though point releases should be minimal effort === lethu_ is now known as lethu === rdieter1 is now known as rdieter
