tech111thanks12:39
Sevishanybody know if plasma 5.8 will hit the kubuntu 16.04 backports, or will I have to update to 16.10 instead?12:42
Fluggonauthello, for some reason I have 2 firefoxes installed12:45
BluesKajSevish, it's in the kubuntu ppa backports https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/ubuntu/staging-plasma12:46
Fluggonautis there a way to look up where a process's executable is located?12:48
BluesKajSevish, correction , not the backports on launchpad, but perhaps this will work http://sourcedigit.com/21009-install-kde-plasma-5-8-on-ubuntu-16-04-and-linux-mint/12:49
FluggonautI can't recall how I managed to start up the other firefox, but I got a message "you haven't been using firefox in a while, let me clean it up for you" (which I didn't do) and it doesn't have my add-ons installed12:49
Fluggonautboth are version 49.012:50
BluesKajFluggonaut,  look in /home/user/.mozilla and delete one12:51
FluggonautBluesKaj: there's only one .mozilla/firefox profile, if you mean that12:52
BluesKajyou can chwck which one contains your extensions12:52
BluesKajcheck12:52
BluesKajnope Fluggonaut i don't mean profile...btw which kubuntu are you using?12:55
Fluggonautehh that's a fairly good question, sec12:55
Sevishthanks for the tip12:55
Fluggonaut16.0412:56
BluesKajFluggonaut, odd, I don't have a profile file in the ~/.mozilla path, but I'm running a devel version (17.04)12:58
Fluggonautthe profile is in ~/.mozilla/firefox12:59
Fluggonautit's called xxxxxx.default12:59
FluggonautI figured out how I managed to start the second firefox (without the add-ons), I clicked on a link in Konversation13:02
BluesKajFluggonaut, ok, there's no profile as such in my firefox/xxxxxdefault13:04
Fluggonautaha? usually there's a .mozilla/firefox/profiles.ini with an entry Path=xxxx.default13:07
Fluggonautand then there is the corresponding profile directory right next to the ini13:07
BluesKajoh the .ini file, yes i see it, do you have 2 versions listed, like Path=xxxxxx.default and Path=yyyyyy.default13:10
FluggonautBluesKaj: nope, I don't13:15
BluesKajstrange stuff13:15

darksimHello! I just wanted to ask how and if my system (16.04) is patched from Dirty Cow15:04
darksimHow do I verify, so to speak15:05
BluesKajdarksim, if you have thelatest kernel for 16.04 then it should be patched already afaik15:15
BluesKajdarksim, Yes, it was patched the day that vulnerability was made public.15:24

marco-parilloIf you downloaded the ISO, next step is to burn it to a thumb drive. I use dd.17:49

DonCullenMay be a stupid question21:42
DonCullenBut how do I save files to desktop?21:42
DonCullenI have an image I just wanted to put on desktop temporarily while I worked with it, it'd be deleted later.  I dragged and dropped from a folder onto desktop, but that only made it become the wallpaper.21:42
DonCullenBasically I'm asking how do I make the desktop act as a folder?21:43
archetech_how do i edit grub.cfg after ubu installer took away RW parameter from my other linux partiton ?  this is a dual boot that ubu goofed up after it overwrote the other linux grub21:48
archetech_other linux is booting in RO mode currently21:48
DonCullen@archetech_  -- Look at top rated answer: http://askubuntu.com/questions/437323/is-it-possible-to-edit-grub-cfg21:54
DonCullenG'luck.21:54
archetech_I know its possible but this is uefi dual boot22:04
archetech_DonCullen:   you could maybe just chmod the Desktop folder from 755 to 77522:07

DonCullenEither that or KDE just isn't designed to allow an user to treat desktop like a folder22:37
DonCullenGoogle indicates best route is to simply switch KDE out for XFCE22:38
DonCullenI've installed it, but it requires reboot; am coding my company's website right now, so I'll do that later.22:38
teledynanyone know what distro kde neon is based on?22:49
teledynDonCullen: see http://www.opensuse-guide.org/kde.php  section 5.122:55
