ForgeAusWindows now has Services for Linux (replacing its former Services for Unix/Subsystem for Unix-like Applications10:52
ForgeAusits essentially an ubuntu-based subsystem in windows ...  (still in beta... )10:53
ForgeAus(so interix went ubuntu essentially)10:53
ForgeAusbut I can't seem to get dbus and kde working on it...10:53

BluesKajHiyas all11:52
ForgeAushey BluesKaj :)11:59
BluesKajhey ForgeAus11:59
ForgeAusbeen a while since I've needed to come here12:00
BluesKajok ForgeAus, what's up?12:00
ForgeAusoh testing out WSL (a Windows10 subsystem called Services for Linux )12:00
ForgeAusits ubuntu based12:00
ForgeAusI'm trying to get KDE running on it lol12:01
ForgeAusit is only in beta, so it might not even be possible12:01
ForgeAusmy actual dual boot partition for kubuntu itself is still functiong fine ...12:01
BluesKajis this linux for windows thing?12:01
ForgeAusyes pretty much12:02
ForgeAusits different from a virtual machine its more like colinux12:02
ForgeAusa cross between a virtual machine and what interix used to be12:02
BluesKajfirst time anyone has mentioned that here12:02
ForgeAus(uses the elegance of making a jail-like directory lock with a mount for the host system)12:02
ForgeAuswell its only relatively new12:03
BluesKajwelll, sounds like you'12:03
ForgeAusInterix was running right up until Windows 8.1 then it got deprecated12:03
ForgeAusits not like bleeding edge, theres a guy in #windows who just decided 2 days ago to delete his and go back to his native partition lol12:04
BluesKajsounds like you're way beyond my scope already12:04
ForgeAusbut I only just now got the anniversary update to Win10 and discovered that it was available so I wanted to have some fun with it12:04
ForgeAusI'm mostly playing really to be honest..12:04
ForgeAusI learn things by doing this though...12:05
ForgeAusfor example I didn't even know there was something called ksmsession until it wouldn't work for me12:05
ForgeAusI reinstalled everything qt I could find12:05
ForgeAusbut dbus doesn't seem to like me12:05
ForgeAusI'm not sure if this thing has init/demons in a profile or not... firefox didn't argue with me it started no hassle... I installed fluxbox (because its smaller and simpler) had problems getting into it at first, but its messages helped me fix some stuff up12:07
ForgeAusinstalled wmaker and kde12:07
ForgeAuscouldn't start wmaker but I was able to get into it when I switched wm's from an already running fluxbox session...12:08
ForgeAusit works fairly well but still no kde and I assume no gnome (haven't tried gnome yet but gksu apparently requres dbus working and it doesn't work)12:08
ForgeAusI tried reinstalling dbus and qdbus but its still not working12:08
ForgeAusksmsession crashes when I run startkde12:09
BluesKajI don't muck about with windows since I stopped receiving W7 updates back in june ...it's now gone from both desktop and laptop machines12:09
ForgeAusfair enough12:10
ForgeAusI didn't go through the win8 generation  although my sister had it so I had to help her out a few times12:10
ForgeAusI preferred win7 and since 10 was free... I actually payed for win8.1 but never actually installed it12:11
ForgeAusI messed with a PCLinuxOS (Mandriva-based) Virtual Machine a few times... but it seems a bit stale now... not sure why exactly12:14
ForgeAusbut the interesting thing it did have was Trinity Desktop (some kind of KDE3-refresh) ...12:14
ForgeAusoh and SfL is trusty still (thats no longer current is it?)12:15
BluesKajForgeAus, yeah I tried the trinity-TDE on the rpi3 and worked quite well in place of ubuntu-mate12:15
ForgeAusisn't mate the gnome (refresh) that didn't follow on to go gnomeshell/gnome 3 or whatever version it was up to then...12:16
ForgeAusor is that cinamon?12:16
BluesKajtrusty is till LTS, it's on my laptop and still receiving updates/upgrades12:17
ForgeAusahh ok that figures then12:17
ForgeAusmicrosoft probably only updates between lts's then lol12:17
BluesKajForgeAus, dunno much about mate ...you could be right12:17
BluesKajmate isn't my cuppa tea anyway12:18
ForgeAusnothing that had its roots in gnome (aside from debatably the GIMP itself) is my cup of tea12:19
ForgeAusof course there may be some other adopted software that I don't know about... kde in general has lots of gnome alternatives ...12:21
BluesKajhate to be so negative, but I'm not a gnome fan  :-)12:22
ForgeAusme either12:22
ForgeAusI could also never figure out what the heck was going on in enlightment, it seemed overly complicated or maybe I just didn't know where to look or what I was looking at/for12:23
=== alexis is now known as Guest44222
ForgeAusoh I just found out... Cinnamon is built on newer technologies like Gnome 3 but with Gnome 2 look/familiarity/etc... so it might look like Mate (which is a fork of Gnome 2 - that doesn't add anything or if it does very little, kinda like how trinity is kde3 so Mate is kinda Gnomes Trinity equivalent)  and Cinnamon is made from the Linux Mint people specifically...12:40
ForgeAusoh and RazorQt got blended with LXDE somehow? seems like they have an lxqt now...12:41
ForgeAusI'd also love to mess with CDE (Common Desktop Environment ??? Ubuntu has another cde package but its something different)12:42
ForgeAusits all opensource now, and even if it is oldskool its oldskool that I never got to mess with back then... so it probably fills in some gaps for me... its pretty much motif stuff right?...12:43
ForgeAusis there any central source to search for PPA's?12:45
BluesKajForgeAus, launchpad12:52

paranoidabhihi13:43
paranoidabhidoes kubuntu 16.10 contain 5.8?13:43
paranoidabhikde 5.8?13:43
paranoidabhiI guess it contains 5.7?13:45
mparilloPlasma 5.7.5 just landed.13:47
acheronukparanoidabhi: sadly, the release of plasma 5.8 was just too close to the 16.10 release date to have any chance of it going in13:55
paranoidabhiacheronuk, thanks!13:57
ilhamihey!14:10
ilhamiwhy do you not run on KDE 5.8 yet?14:10
ugurkoltukHi, I can't seem to disable bluetooth on boot on kubuntu 16.04.1. I added "rfkill block bluetooth" to /etc/rc.local, and did "sudo systemctl enable rc-local.service" but bluetooth is still on and powered on boot.14:52
ugurkoltukAny ideas?14:52

Smurphyparanoidabhi: Works will, with latest available plasma through backports.19:33
paranoidabhiSmurphy, unsure if they will rollout 5.7 first or 5.8 and when ?19:42
SmurphyGuess they'll go to 5.8 straight. And not for 16.04 -> they'll do it in 16.10 - as qt needs to be upgraded too.19:45

DarinMillerbeavis: Is your wireless printer connected to your router? If not, you will probably need to hardwire your printer into your network, type in the printers address in a browser address bar, and proceed with wireless setup.20:58
