[07:58] <Fritigern> Razva: 5.7.5 works quite
[07:58] <Fritigern> *quite well
[08:11] <Razva> any idea if 5.8 is planned?
[08:16] <hateball> Razva: through backports if so
[09:46] <pierre__> test

[11:44] <sonne> Greetings!
[11:44] <nicholas_> evening... Any ideas why 16.1 is booting periodically into command???  startx is not working (black screen but appears to be working in the background) - what is the command for either loading or switching to GUI???
[11:45] <sonne> My PC has a very very very terribly unsupported GPU, so the installer hangs very reliably. It seems there is no such thing as alternate ISO downloads anymore, and I can't find a boot option to turn off X11. Any suggestions?
[11:49] <hateball> !minimal | sonne
[11:52] <sonne> ah, cheers :)
[11:58] <nicholas_> any ideas how to start kubuntu 16.1 from the command boot screen?  startx does not work?
[12:04] <pi__> hello
[12:12] <nicholas_> .
[12:18] <nicholas_> my default display is sddm - does the command for startx change... done heas of looking on the internet but not luck...
[12:18] <hateball> nicholas_: Do not use startx with *ubuntu
[12:18] <nicholas_> ok thanks... sddm?
[12:18] <hateball> nicholas_: sudo service sddm start
[12:19] <nicholas_> ok cheers...  it has to be sudo??  any ideas why it might be periodically booting to command... the grub entries look normal
[12:20] <nicholas_> i'll look into the issue more via the logs.  thanks for the info anyway.
[12:37] <Learner> Greetings to all

[14:07] <Guest39194> hi
[14:07] <Guest39194> someone connected_
[16:22] <TBotNik> All: Having huge performance problems. Don't understand anything about RAM vs SWAP or performance tuning, but looking in system monitor have 23 PostGres session and should only be 7.  How do I fix that? Trouble started with last Google/Mozilla consequitive upgrads.  Can't see anything under "ps -A" but appears to be some hidden java/javascripts.  Keep getting javascript timeout errors.
[17:38] <daum_> hey guys -  i have a t460 which has an integrated intel skylake graphics card, when i have dual monitors (one displayport+hdmi) hooked up, i get tons of flickering.  I read some people suggested upgrade my kernel to 4.7, but wanted to see what you guys suggest
[20:00] <me5> hey anybody around on this spooky holiday
[20:00] <me5> well got a new notebook as my other one's mobo some how got fried , came with win10 and i'm goin nutz , curious if anybody can help me determine if kubuntu can be used with this hardware?
[20:02] <DonCullen> Have you tried installing to see what happens?
[20:02] <me5> http://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/productdetails/inspiron-15-3558-laptop/fncwc105sb?ref=195_title
[20:03] <me5> not yet
[20:03] <me5> only had it 12 days
[20:03] <me5> slowly was getting used to it tresting different hardware make sure i didn't need an exchange
[20:03] <me5> but last night with its update was so fked , i can't stand it
[20:03] <ahoneybun> just try a live dvd/flash drive on it
[20:03] <ahoneybun> see what works
[20:03] <DonCullen> @me5 see http://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/productdetails/inspiron-15-3551-laptop-ubuntu
[20:04] <DonCullen> Dell actually sells a similar laptop with Ubuntu on it
[20:04] <DonCullen> Should be fine.
[20:04] <me5> well kinda like kubuntu ,  :)
[20:05] <me5> will drivers work with it
[20:05] <ahoneybun> you can load it with Kubuntu
[20:05] <ahoneybun> try a live image to see what works
[20:05] <DonCullen> It should.  Ubuntu runs Gnome, Kubuntu runs KDE, but they're both based off the same stuff.
[20:05] <me5> ok does latest kubuntu support this odd secure UEFI boot
[20:06] <me5> saw it in bios
[20:06] <DonCullen> @me5 -- like ahoneybun said, just run a live CD and see what works, if it works, you're good to start installing.
[20:06] <me5> ok thx , hopefully this may be my salvation lol
[20:06] <ahoneybun> you can install any driver in the live dvd/flash drive
[20:07] <ahoneybun> since 14.04 or so EFI has been supported
[20:07] <ahoneybun> those old macs are useless though
[20:07] <me5> ohh sry to seem like a noob but anybody got a link to make a bootable kubuntu usb drive from within kubuntu using the iso
[20:07] <me5> i used to do it with a win 7 program till that mobo died
[20:07] <ahoneybun> as that needs a special efi setup to even start the live
[20:07] <ahoneybun> I've been using dd
[20:07] <ahoneybun> but that needs the command line
[20:08] <me5> any newb program out there lol
[20:08] <ahoneybun> unetbootin works for me
[20:08] <ahoneybun> but some people complain about it
[20:08] <ahoneybun> I've never had an issue with it
[20:09] <me5> thx , i'll look for it
[20:09] <me5> god i can't believe how messed up win 10 is
[20:10] <me5> but i like the hardware on the cheap notebook so far
[20:10] <me5> plus being pretty barebones hopefully configuring stuff won't be a big issue
[20:36] <jonfen> Sometimes I have to restart my laptop to get wifi to work.  Is there a CLI command I can use to reset the connection without a full reboot?
[21:46] <viewer|77144> how to install admin on VBOX-kubuntu, to run terminal as admin???
[21:47] <genii> !root
[21:48] <viewer|77144> the kubuntu-guest requires root to run terminal?
[21:49] <viewer|77144> once needed (older version) synaptic to add vbox user to admin ...
[21:49] <viewer|77144> or how to run terminal as sudo??
[21:50] <viewer|77144> guest.iso install ...
[21:50] <viewer|77144> guest-additions.iso
[21:51] <viewer|77144> where is synaptic?
[21:58] <viewer|40459> run terminal as sudo?
[21:58] <viewer|40459> how to
[22:11] <DonCullen> open terminal, type sudo and the command you want to run as root (aka admin), and it'll do it.
[22:40] <me5> hello spooky channel
[23:29] <Aziroshin> One thing that's been bogging my mind for a while: On my main user, kate seems to have some antiquited file choosing dialog that feels like something from gnome2. Another system user doesn't have that when kate is run through it, however. Any ideas what might cause such deprecation?
[23:47] <sponge> Hello
[23:48] <sponge> Should krita appear in Discover on kubuntu 16.04?
[23:49] <clivejo> sponge: it might not
[23:49] <sponge> For some reason I can't see it in Discover, but in synaptic I can see krita.
[23:52] <clivejo> the appstream info was probably missing or something
[23:55] <clivejo> actually its not in zesty either!
[23:55] <clivejo> !info krita
[23:55] <clivejo> okay that would be why!
[23:58] <sponge> clivejo, Why? can you explain it to me?
[23:58] <clivejo> its an old version
[23:59] <sponge> But how come it's in synaptic and not in discover?
[23:59] <clivejo> synaptic uses debian packages, discover uses appstream
