| To24 | Hi, like someone said, Okular is not by default in Kubuntu 16.10. | 08:01 |
| To24 | Are we supposed to install it or to use other program? | 08:02 |
| === tarator85 is now known as tarator | ||
| To24 | In Kubuntu-devel: acheronuk has said that, in Kubuntu 16.10, "Okular was removed from the iso due to causing kde4 dependency problems when building that. go ahead and install it :)" | 09:41 |
| acheronuk | yep http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~kubuntu-dev/ubuntu-seeds/kubuntu.yakkety/revision/1344 | 09:42 |
| To24 | Thank you, acheronuk, the user "dsealius" asked that previously in this channel | 09:46 |
| To24 | He wrote "why okular is not installed by default on 16.10 release ? | 09:47 |
| To24 | it launches libre office instead" | 09:47 |
| user|40204 | Hi | 09:49 |
| user|40204 | What are the hardware requirements for Kubuntu 16.10? | 09:50 |
| mparillo | It can run on a netbook with 1GB, but if you do anything more than light web surfing and document editing, you will not be happy on it. | 10:18 |
| === fml_ is now known as fml | ||

| Ashareth | it's a problem with power saving not working properly, so it probably mess with the graphic card | 11:56 |
| Ashareth | (ie : not getting out of power saving mode or something like that) | 11:56 |
| Ashareth | except that bcma is for broadcom hardware | 11:57 |
| Ashareth | if i recall well, so it should be a wifi/network card or something | 11:57 |
| IrcsomeBot | her01 was removed by: her01 | 11:57 |
| Ashareth | but first try to update the graphic drivers in command line | 11:57 |
| Ashareth | might solve the black screen problem | 11:57 |
| Jakelinux | What command? | 11:58 |
| Ashareth | depends what drivers you use (if it's proprietary ones from nvidia/amd or not) | 11:59 |
| Ashareth | on 14.04 and above the tool allowing that is ubuntu-drivers from memory | 12:01 |
| Ashareth | (should look like "ubuntu-drivers list" to list the drivers available | 12:01 |
| Jakelinux | ATI Mobility Radeon HD 6550 | 12:02 |

| steve-_-2 | hi team, I find it somewhat difficult to follow the install instructions from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YakketyYak/ReleaseNotes/Kubuntu | 15:45 |
| steve-_-2 | the section "Upgrading from 16.04" is really hard to follow and imo giving the user "or" instructions isn't a great policy | 15:46 |
| steve-_-2 | also some steps and precise instructions are missing | 15:46 |
| steve-_-2 | maybe obvious for linux geeks for new users imo frustrating to follow | 15:46 |
| hippybear | cablop: I have never written chinese so not sure | 15:50 |
| buovjaga | yes, would be good to get numbered steps | 15:51 |
| BluesKaj | steve-_-2, which method are you using to upgrade | 15:51 |
| steve-_-2 | BluesKaj: um system updates I guess the dialog is called. so I set it up in "discover" | 15:52 |
| hippybear | system upgrades shouldnt require linux geek cred | 15:52 |
| steve-_-2 | it#s working all fine, just that I think the wiki instructions are highly confusing | 15:52 |
| hippybear | its a simple 3 command deal in terminal | 15:52 |
| hippybear | Either open Muon upgrade app, or run in terminal | 15:52 |
| hippybear | thats kinda the linux way | 15:52 |
| steve-_-2 | hippybear: yeah there are users that don't live in the command line. also I referenced already I am not referring to the right section (CLI) but to the left section in the wiki | 15:53 |
| hippybear | eclipse, click the icon or type 'eclipse' in terminal | 15:53 |
| BluesKaj | steve-_-2, in your update manager change the LIS only update to normal | 15:53 |
| hippybear | you dont need to live in a command line to upgrade your system | 15:54 |
| hippybear | youre making it more difficult than it is | 15:54 |
| hippybear | this isnt windows | 15:54 |
| buovjaga | BluesKaj: he is trying to help you improve the wiki :) we need someone with edit rights | 15:54 |
| hippybear | lol | 15:54 |
| hippybear | imo that is a non issue | 15:54 |
| hippybear | if you cant do A, then do B | 15:55 |
| steve-_-2 | hippybear: good for you. but you didn't even read what the problem is | 15:55 |
| hippybear | \0/ | 15:55 |
| steve-_-2 | the update is working | 15:55 |
| steve-_-2 | all setup here | 15:55 |
| hippybear | I did read | 15:55 |
| hippybear | you make asinine assumptions | 15:55 |
| buovjaga | the problem is the wiki | 15:55 |
| steve-_-2 | so why direct me to the terminal? | 15:55 |
| hippybear | I didnt, I was more just making comments. I dont know why you think I was talking to you | 15:55 |
| hippybear | did I say steve-_-2? | 15:55 |
| BluesKaj | buovjaga, the wiki is very straight forward ...we;re here to help those who don't understand the nomenclature | 15:55 |
| hippybear | ^ | 15:56 |
| buovjaga | BluesKaj: it is not straightforward enough :) otherwise steve wouldn't be here suggesting improvements | 15:56 |
| hippybear | before muon updater you had people in here who would never be able to update | 15:56 |
| hippybear | lol | 15:56 |
| buovjaga | you need enumerated steps, like in a bug report | 15:56 |
| hippybear | lol | 15:56 |
| steve-_-2 | lol lol lol not helpful. | 15:56 |
| BluesKaj | buovjaga, well, that's what we're here for ...do you understand? | 15:56 |
| steve-_-2 | sure and that's appreciated | 15:57 |
| buovjaga | BluesKaj: yes | 15:57 |
| hippybear | step 1, click the thing, step 2 click the upgrade button, step 3 wait | 15:57 |
| steve-_-2 | so let's rephrase: do you think the wiki steps on the left section are consistent and clear? | 15:57 |
| goodtime | hi BluesKaj | 15:59 |
| BluesKaj | well we don't edit the wiki here , steve-_-2 , you may want to expalin your displeasure with it in #kubuntu-devel | 16:02 |
| steve-_-2 | BluesKaj: thx buovjaga just did that | 16:02 |
| BluesKaj | ok ..BBL ...editing my music files for the next 30mins or so | 16:03 |
| steve-_-2 | BluesKaj: have fun | 16:04 |
| === ImpeccableEyes is now known as UrsaTempest | ||
| acheronuk | just having a look at the wiki now | 16:11 |
| steve-_-2 | so updated but no the vm no longer boots | 16:19 |
| steve-_-2 | ah restarting a few times seems to have helped | 16:20 |
| steve-_-2 | so has muon be removed from kubuntu 16.10? | 16:22 |
| steve-_-2 | can't find it anymore | 16:22 |
| steve-_-2 | so system updates etc now incoming via discover? | 16:24 |
| acheronuk | muon is there if you wish to install it | 16:26 |
| steve-_-2 | acheronuk: well it was there but has been uninstalled it seems | 16:27 |
| steve-_-2 | also why have 2 update managers? | 16:27 |
| steve-_-2 | so the default is discover? | 16:27 |
| acheronuk | KDE wants to have discover, as it it evolving into a software centre that will be more than just a package manager. | 16:28 |
| steve-_-2 | sounds fine | 16:28 |
| steve-_-2 | also that means I don't have to be annoyed by the wrong time info for the last update check in muon... | 16:28 |
| acheronuk | Muon has been revived as an option for those who may just want a plain package manager | 16:28 |
| acheronuk | Both are somewhat a work in progress from KDE. | 16:29 |
| acheronuk | steve-_-2: stick a quick band-aid on the wiki. ;) | 16:30 |
| steve-_-2 | acheronuk: hm, they should focus efforts and get one to working state. muon has had that time check bug for years | 16:30 |
| acheronuk | *stuck even | 16:30 |
| acheronuk | Muon is very much a side project. pretty much one person fixing it up | 16:31 |
| penelopa | KDE in Kubuntu 16.10 periodical crash. ((( | 16:32 |
| steve-_-2 | Open Configure Software Sources from the settings menu, and set the release upgrade option to Normal Releases. | 16:33 |
| steve-_-2 | I don#t understand that. when I open discover, settings > software source I see http://imgur.com/a/dHnxS | 16:33 |
| steve-_-2 | that doesn't match that description at all | 16:33 |
| steve-_-2 | acheronuk: | 16:34 |
| acheronuk | steve-_-2: http://i.imgur.com/WRHr3fa.png | 16:36 |
| steve-_-2 | acheronuk: this stuff is complex. I don't have the advanced option | 16:38 |
| steve-_-2 | http://imgur.com/a/5TeKM | 16:38 |
| acheronuk | gets you: http://i.imgur.com/iYbsLMu.png | 16:38 |
| acheronuk | steve-_-2: are you now on 16.10? if so, the the version of discover on that is different | 16:39 |
| steve-_-2 | acheronuk: y | 16:40 |
| steve-_-2 | hm, so why hide important options? | 16:40 |
| acheronuk | I'm looking at standard 16.04.1 in a VM | 16:40 |
| steve-_-2 | 16.10 here in vm (: | 16:40 |
| steve-_-2 | well, maybe things will stabilise | 16:41 |
| acheronuk | I know what you mean. plasma-discover is changing rapidly between releases | 16:41 |
| steve-_-2 | ok, so let#S ignore that. let me take another look at the wiki | 16:42 |
| acheronuk | upstream dev version is completely changed again | 16:42 |
| hippybear | personally I have never used the non terminal version | 16:42 |
| hippybear | much easier in terminal | 16:42 |
| acheronuk | ^^^^ ditto | 16:43 |
| steve-_-2 | acheronuk: terminal is great but not for non terminal users. | 16:45 |
| steve-_-2 | acheronuk: so why not add "in software sources open the 'Updates' tab and there in the 'Release upgrade' section select 'Normal Releases' | 16:45 |
| steve-_-2 | that would be an instruction that should prevent users from searching like crazy | 16:46 |
| === zippy is now known as Guest59916 | ||
| steve-_-2 | atm it's totally unclear as to where to find that setting that needs to be adjusted | 16:46 |
| hippybear | because muon is bloated | 16:49 |
| hippybear | in terminal its much simpler | 16:49 |
| hippybear | Windows does a disservice to users hand holding everyone and getting them used to installing 400 lbs of crap just tp update one program | 16:49 |
| hippybear | "But I need a GUI" | 16:50 |
| hippybear | "Terminal is so scery" | 16:50 |
| hippybear | Linux is not for strictly gui users | 16:50 |
| hippybear | Never was designed to be, if you cant get used to usig a terminal install Mac or stick to windows | 16:51 |
| steve-_-2 | hippybear: I truly believe this is incorrect. linux wants to be on the desktop | 16:51 |
| hippybear | Desktop is there for people who cant install x | 16:51 |
| hippybear | you really dont need it | 16:51 |
| steve-_-2 | ? well whatever. I give up for today. acheronuk if you want to further adjust the wiki, that would be welcome. | 16:52 |
| hippybear | some peoples kids | 16:52 |
| acheronuk | that debate goes on ad nauseum. | 16:55 |
| === Kuro is now known as jweojcoie | ||
| hippybear | No doubt | 16:59 |
| hippybear | I remember linux 15 years ago | 16:59 |
| hippybear | ask for a GUI for a and get laughed out of the channel | 16:59 |
| hippybear | "Go back to windows nub" | 16:59 |
| Unit193 | Except this isn't 15 years ago, and people can generally ignore the terminal. | 17:00 |
| hippybear | I dont recall saying it was | 17:02 |
| hippybear | but astute observation | 17:02 |
| hippybear | How do you edit iptable rules without a terminal? | 17:03 |
| hippybear | how do you generate ssh keys? | 17:03 |
| hippybear | how do you connect to a server via ssh with a gui? | 17:04 |
| hippybear | sftp? | 17:04 |
| hippybear | top? | 17:04 |
| buovjaga | https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_edit_iptables_rules#GUI | 17:06 |
| hippybear | rhel != Kubuntu | 17:07 |
| buovjaga | Kubuntu users will miss out, then :) | 17:11 |

| sponge | Hello | 17:19 |
| hippybear | hallo | 17:19 |
| sponge | I'm using xubuntu on my laptop and I wanted to try kubuntu. I'm wondering if it's possible to install kubuntu on a external-usb-drive and dual boot (In order to not ruin the xubuntu installation). Can anyone advise me on what's my best options? | 17:20 |
| soee | why not make bootable usb and try live session ? | 17:21 |
| sponge | Because I it's hard to fully work with a live session. I can't install my fav apps and keep them on the live-usb. | 17:23 |
| hippybear | you can also install the kubuntu desktop env and log out and try kubuntu | 17:23 |
| mparillo | You should be able to add "persistence" to your USB and then install aps, change configs and have them the next time you boot using the USB. | 17:24 |
| sponge | hippybear, on many sites it's recommended not to mix kde with other DEs, and not to experiment on a production machine. This is why I'm not choosing the option to install kde inside xubuntu. | 17:26 |
| hippybear | I can understand | 17:28 |
| hippybear | it really isnt that bad if you know how to set it back | 17:28 |
| sponge | mparillo, Can I also add persistence when "burning" the usb with rufus? | 17:29 |
| sponge | hippybear, knowing how to set it back is using purge? Does it completely wipe all the changes kde has made? | 17:29 |
| hippybear | it removes a lot of things you actually need | 17:30 |
| sponge | hippybear, So you mean that's not the right way of doing it? | 17:30 |
| hippybear | so you have to let it clear all that and then reinstall some really important system files with apt-get update && upgrade | 17:30 |
| hippybear | it takes some know how but its doable | 17:31 |
| === ms10 is now known as manshi10 | ||
| sponge1 | sorry. Got d/c | 17:33 |
| sponge1 | Maybe I'll try it first with the live usb. Is there a recommended way for burning a live-usb from inside windows that enables persistence? | 17:33 |
| hippybear | unetbootin works? | 17:34 |
| sponge1 | hippybear, Yeah, it works. I just wanted to know if you recommend something. I used to use rufus because it has support for old bios which one of my machines required. | 17:44 |
| hippybear | I never used anything other than unetbootin | 17:45 |

| leumas | Hi All, just upgraded to 16.10 and my wireless card aint working since then | 18:06 |
| leumas | same for audio, i need to unplug and plug back my USB headset to get it to work...pls help | 18:07 |
| hippybear | which wireless card do you have? | 18:17 |
| robert850 | I downloaded the kubunyu file, now what? My laptop doesn't read the file? | 18:17 |
| hippybear | Yeah its a much more involved process than just clicking a file | 18:17 |
| hippybear | Do you have a USB? are you burning a disk? | 18:17 |
| hippybear | Will this be in a VM or installed over your OS | 18:18 |
| robert850 | over OS | 18:18 |
| hippybear | so you will need to either burn that iso to a disk and set that disk to be bootable or burn it to USB and make the USB bootable if your OS supports USB booting | 18:19 |
| hippybear | you will also need a working internet through the whole process | 18:19 |
| robert850 | OK sounds good, anything else? | 18:19 |
| hippybear | let me see if I can find a decent write up on how to do it so you dont get totally lost :) | 18:20 |

| hippybear | should have you set up in a couple hours :) | 18:22 |

| Aaditya | sorry | 18:50 |
| soee | you should ask on #ubuntu | 18:50 |
| Aaditya | thanks | 18:50 |
| Aaditya | one question...what is the difference between k,x,l ubuntu? | 18:51 |

| hippybear | you 'can' | 19:10 |
| hippybear | it looks a litte weird sometimes | 19:10 |
| sponge1 | Does this require kubuntu to d/l lots of libraries and possibly break the system? | 19:10 |
| === fml is now known as fml_dog | ||

| hippybear | sometimes you wont even notice lol | 19:11 |

| sponge1 | Oh, one more thing | 19:19 |
| hippybear | ? | 19:20 |
| sponge1 | I've heard that plasma 5.8 is going to be LTS. Is there a way/will there be a way to upgrade plasma 5.7 on kubuntu 16.04 to plasma 5.8? and stay on two LTS - one is kubuntu 16.04 and one is plasma 5.8? | 19:21 |
| hippybear | mmm sorta | 19:22 |
| hippybear | its often awkward but you can backwards compile | 19:22 |
| hippybear | you have to know how to specify versions in apt for example, but it can be done | 19:22 |
| hippybear | its better to either switch to beta and just let it run buggy as it is, or build backwards and accept the issues | 19:23 |

| sponge1 | Could it be that Discover isn't offering vlc for install? | 20:01 |
| hippybear | man installing fonts isnt working so well today | 20:07 |
| hippybear | might be buggy | 20:07 |
| sponge1 | hippybear: Why can't I find vlc in Discover? Should I change something in my settings? | 20:08 |
| sponge1 | Also I can't find the restricted codec package | 20:09 |
| hippybear | I dont use discover | 20:09 |
| hippybear | try it in terminal does it tell you nothing found? | 20:09 |
| sponge1 | terminal works. I managed to install synaptic via terminal | 20:09 |
| hippybear | das whats up | 20:09 |
| hippybear | I always use the terminal | 20:10 |
| hippybear | it just seems right lol | 20:10 |
| sponge1 | Is discover broken or somethign? | 20:10 |
| hippybear | It works, you probably just need to enable something or change a setting | 20:11 |
| sponge1 | ok | 20:12 |
| hippybear | you have to add a ppa | 20:12 |
| hippybear | sudo add-apt-repository ppa:videolan/stable-daily | 20:12 |
| sponge1 | doesn't kubuntu use the same ppas as ubuntu/xubuntu? | 20:12 |
| hippybear | its also in trusty-main or xenial-main now | 20:13 |
| hippybear | no | 20:13 |
| hippybear | sorta? | 20:13 |
| acheronuk | vlc is in the main archive | 20:13 |
| acheronuk | sudo apt install vlc | 20:14 |
| hippybear | vlc vlc-plugin | 20:16 |
| sponge1 | sholdn't it also be in xenial main? | 20:16 |
| hippybear | it is | 20:16 |
| acheronuk | no need for an extra ppa for vlc unless you want the git stable/unstable builds | 20:17 |
| sponge1 | acheronuk: even if I'm on a live usb? | 20:17 |
| hippybear | yeah | 20:18 |
| hippybear | vlc and all plugins / libs are in xenial main http://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/allpackages | 20:19 |
| acheronuk | live cd/usb has 'main restricted universe' in it's sources.list. so most things like vlc etc should be available | 20:22 |
| ahoneybun | sponge1: the live usb can install software | 20:22 |
| ahoneybun | I guess the bot is not doing anything then | 20:25 |

| kayvee | I have a quick question - is there a command line way to unlock widgets? | 22:40 |
| kayvee | I am working on a script that will change wallpapers and it won't work unless the widgets are unlocked. I don't want to leave my widgets unlocked at all times. | 22:41 |
| hippybear | Not that I am aware of | 22:44 |
| hippybear | If you are doing it in a script lock widgets=false | 22:45 |
| kayvee | Then is there a way to change the wallpaper using a script? The ones I have looked at so far use a similar approach that involves a qdbus command | 22:46 |
| kayvee | Cool. Let me try that | 22:47 |
| kayvee | Nope, it did not work. I have a feeling though that I have screwed up something. | 22:49 |
| kayvee | This is the command I am using: qdbus org.kde.plasmashell /PlasmaShell org.kde.PlasmaShell.evaluateScript 'var allDesktops = desktops();print (allDesktops);for (i=0;i<allDesktops.length;i++) {d = allDesktops[i];d.wallpaperPlugin = "org.kde.image";d.currentConfigGroup = Array("Wallpaper", "org.kde.image", "General");d.writeConfig("Image", "file:///path/to/image.png")}' | 22:51 |
| hippybear | https://gist.github.com/hippybear/3e7951a2cf2167ac917ae85a85a1e1bd | 22:52 |
| hippybear | example script that randomly chooses wallpaper based on a file | 22:52 |
| kayvee | That appears to be gnome specific. Will it work on KDE/Plasma? | 22:53 |
| hippybear | should | 22:54 |
| hippybear | the essential line is gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background picture-uri "$FNAME" | 22:54 |
| hippybear | FNAME = whatever/path/image.png | 22:55 |
| hippybear | you will need to assosciate it with a crontab to get it to run randomly | 22:56 |
| hippybear | crontab -e | 22:56 |
| hippybear | then add your file at the bottom | 22:56 |
| kayvee | I have tried that script. The wallpaper is not changed. | 22:58 |
| hippybear | I wonder if gsettings is changed in 16 | 22:59 |
| hippybear | lemme see | 22:59 |
| ronaldsmazitis | my application dashboard doesn't search files | 22:59 |

| ronaldsmazitis | anyone knows why my application dashboard doesn't search files | 23:03 |

| hippybear | ronaldsmazitis: What do you mean it doesnt search files? | 23:10 |
| hippybear | which menu are you using? | 23:10 |

| hippybear | click your menu and type abc and take a screenshot of it | 23:13 |
| ronaldsmazitis | it finds applications but no files | 23:13 |
| ronaldsmazitis | no need for screenshot it is like I said | 23:14 |
| ronaldsmazitis | it finds plenty of question marks on files | 23:14 |
| hippybear | oh files | 23:15 |

| hippybear | lol | 23:25 |

| hippybear | kayvee: im not really sure :| it seems some thing changed and now I have no clue how to lol | 23:28 |
| kayvee | I have been searching about this... Here's kind of what I wanted to do. https://gist.github.com/mamantoha/e4a2e173a852d6901918eef56e5bc884 | 23:33 |
| kayvee | hippybear: that script works but only if I have the widgets unlocked | 23:33 |
| hippybear | oh bang | 23:33 |
| hippybear | its javascript? | 23:34 |
| kayvee | So all I am looking for is an addition to that script that unlocks the widgets first, changes the wallpaper and locks it back again. | 23:34 |
| kayvee | hippybear: it is ruby | 23:34 |
| hippybear | oh tru | 23:34 |
| hippybear | missed the .rb lol | 23:35 |
| hippybear | looks a lot like node, plus plasma is bringing in some kind of javascript editor for plasmoids | 23:35 |
