| konrados | Hi. | 01:09 |
| konrados | On Windows, I had a *desktop* application, which used google translate to show me a translation from English to Polish or vice versa. It was faster than: switch to a web browser, go to google translate, enter text, wait, get the answer, switch back to the app I used before. Is there anything like this for Kubuntu? | 01:11 |
| adymitruk | konrados: czesc.. I think this may help: http://wiki.apertium.org/wiki/Tools | 01:17 |
| konrados | adymitruk, - dzięki! I'm on it right now :) | 01:18 |
| adymitruk | nice! good luck! | 01:23 |
| teledyn | hi guys, anyone know of a cpu frequency indicator for the plasma system tray? | 01:44 |
| teledyn | i have indicator-cpufreq running but that's not an actual indicator, just a thing to set the mode | 01:44 |
| adymitruk | heya.. anyone know when or if kubuntu 16.04 will get plasma 5.8.x? | 03:13 |
| DarinMiller | adymitruk: the kubuntu devs plan to eventually backport plasma 5.8 to 16.04. But I suspect it will be awhile. Several mishaps during the last release and too few people doing too much packaging. | 03:23 |
| adymitruk | ah.. so if I was to run KDE 5.8.x on something I'd have to do it manually on something like debian? | 03:32 |
| adymitruk | I'm new to KDE so no idea what the best practices are.. | 03:33 |
| DarinMiller | adymitruk: while its certainly possible to complie and install yourself, I would not recommend it for new users. | 03:34 |
| DarinMiller | Several rolling or bleeding edge distro's have plasma 5.8.3. KDE Neon, SUSE tumbleweed, Arch, Chakra and possibly others. | 03:35 |
| adymitruk | any issues with going to that "bleeding edge"? | 03:36 |
| adymitruk | from what I read, it's supposed to have fixed a number of issues. But did it introduce new ones? | 03:36 |
| DarinMiller | Bleeding edge will sometimes provide updates that break on certatin hardware. If you know how to undo an update or configure a package that might have been overlooked, it's not a problem. | 03:37 |
| DarinMiller | Right now I am using kde-neon dev unstable (triple booting between Kubuntu 16.10, neon-user, and dev unstable). | 03:39 |
| DarinMiller | I have been running Neon unstable since summer. One update killed sddm for Nvidia Optimus users (me included). I was forced to uninstall my Nvidia drivers for a few days while the packagers ironed out the kinks. | 03:40 |
| adymitruk | I see.. I'm running on a chromebook pixel from 2013 | 03:41 |
| DarinMiller | Otherwise, I have found the bleeding edge more stable than Kubuntu 16.04 with plasma 5.6. But much of the stability depends on HW and how the PC is used. | 03:41 |
| adymitruk | so I think that would be more standard hardware? | 03:41 |
| DarinMiller | Yes, your hw should be perfect for bleeding edge as I believe CB's have intel graphics processors. | 03:43 |
| DarinMiller | Do you use dual monitors? If so, I strongly recommend adding the backports ppa to Kubuntu 16.04 at minimum or just upgrade to 16.10. | 03:44 |
| DarinMiller | The neon series used to lack certain packages, but the devs keep adding new ones all the time. So it's hard to argue against Neon. | 03:45 |
| DarinMiller | I used SUSE for awhile but prefer the debian packaging. SUSE has great support for KDE but I still prefer the debian packaing system. | 03:46 |
| DarinMiller | If you think you really know linux or are feeling adventurous, you can try Arch. I thought I knew Linux fairly well until I installed Arch and I learned a heck of a lot more. Their wiki are incredible and often help solve corner cases on debian installs. | 03:49 |
| adymitruk | one day! :) | 03:50 |
| adymitruk | I remember having a lot of issues with Neon on this machine | 03:50 |
| adymitruk | kubuntu made all of that go away | 03:50 |
| adymitruk | mostly with wallet and the k-suite of software that relies on it | 03:51 |
| adymitruk | speaking of which, when I log out and log back in, I get a kwallet password prompt | 03:51 |
| adymitruk | annoying as i never set one up and when I cancel the 100 dialogs, nothing is working | 03:51 |
| adymitruk | ie, settings are missing for things | 03:52 |
| ForgeAus | well neon is relatively new | 03:52 |
| ForgeAus | and kubuntu integrates stuff and tends to be relatively stable... for the most part... | 03:52 |
| DarinMiller | Yes, the kubuntu devs work really hard at ensuring the packaging works and usually error on the side of caution by sticking with known solutions. | 03:53 |
| ForgeAus | I wonder when they'll package CDE (as in Common Desktop Environment) | 03:56 |
| DarinMiller | adymitruk: if you are not worried about securing your PC you can disable kwallet by removing the kwallet pwd. | 03:56 |
| ForgeAus | afaik there is no .deb or .rpm or anything for it yet... | 03:56 |
| ForgeAus | not that it is needed, but my attempt at building it failed... | 03:56 |
| DarinMiller | ForgeAus: you sound like me. I seem to fail quite often when trying build stuff from source. | 03:57 |
| ForgeAus | its a tricky thing | 03:58 |
| ForgeAus | when it works it works well but there's usually subcomponents in stuff that have minor niggles or something that stops them | 03:58 |
| DarinMiller | is CDE still under active development? | 03:59 |
| ForgeAus | I'm not sure | 03:59 |
| ForgeAus | its only relatively recently been released as opensource | 03:59 |
| ForgeAus | but I don't know where the development status of it is at | 03:59 |
| adymitruk | I had a ton of issues with kmail and wallet stuff.. maybe it's ok now | 03:59 |
| adymitruk | afraid to touch wallet :) | 03:59 |
| ForgeAus | but I'm sure there are probably some forked stuff thats making use of whatever goodies are in it that hadn't already been implemented... | 04:00 |
| ForgeAus | yeah wallet stuff can be annoying ... | 04:00 |
| DarinMiller | Yes, I attempted to build kdevelop 5.02 from source. I finally succeeded but many features were missing when I ran it. | 04:00 |
| ForgeAus | I'm actually finding TDE is decent (Trinity...) but thats because I'm right now using bash on ubuntu on Windows10 hehe | 04:00 |
| ForgeAus | its a toy, kinda... for me anyway... | 04:00 |
| ForgeAus | seeing as it doesn't do compisiting for me, Trinity is a great interface (Kubuntu wasn't using it long after Feisty-like days but it feels mature and cushy) | 04:01 |
| ForgeAus | most daemons don't work and the sound system is completely non-functional but most other stuff is stable... | 04:02 |
| DarinMiller | I am not familiar with either of those enviros. | 04:02 |
| ForgeAus | TDE is basically a fork of KDE3 (since KDE4 went off on its own tangent... ) | 04:03 |
| ForgeAus | instaed of the old KDE3 remixes that were around some group continued to develop KDE3 and made the Trinity Desktop Environment (trinity alluding to version 3 but its really KDE rebranded) | 04:03 |
| DarinMiller | oh, strange that I never encountered it. Though I didn't start using KDE until later in the plasma 4.x cycle. | 04:04 |
| ForgeAus | much like what happened with Gnome when they went Gnome Shell, different environments showed up like Unity, Mate and Cinnamon... ) | 04:04 |
| ForgeAus | KDE3 was wonderful... KDE4 did eventually improve and overtake it for the most part... | 04:04 |
| ForgeAus | but since the compositing on this environment I'm using (under windows 10 as a subsystem kinda like cygwin only more elegant and well no .exe's everywhere) | 04:05 |
| DarinMiller | I am familiar with Unity, Mate and Cin. We still use KDE 3 at work and occcasionally I say "oh, I wish we still had that feature on Plasma 5".... | 04:05 |
| ForgeAus | kde3 makes more sense, and trinity is a slightly improved kde3 thats still relatively current | 04:05 |
| ForgeAus | yeah | 04:05 |
| ForgeAus | I know how you feel | 04:05 |
| ForgeAus | I missed lots about kde3 in the early kde4 days | 04:06 |
| ForgeAus | and plasma is just beyond me at the moment... I could go back to my native kubuntu and try it though... | 04:06 |
| ForgeAus | anyway, unity mate and cinnamon are all gnome forks | 04:06 |
| ForgeAus | when gnome2 was going to gnome3, they made this thing that was hated by a decent sizable group of former gnome-users... called gnome shell | 04:07 |
| ForgeAus | (its like the difference between kubuntu and ubuntu (ubuntu is generally gnome-based and kubuntu is kde-based) | 04:07 |
| ForgeAus | so instead of gnome shell (Gnome3) a group split off and continued with the interface they were happy with and familiar with which was dubbed mate... | 04:07 |
| DarinMiller | I am really impressed with the state Plasma 5. Lots of polish lately and features that I learned to live without but am glad they are appearing. | 04:08 |
| ForgeAus | so the mate shell is like a gnome2 ... | 04:08 |
| ForgeAus | cinnamon is similar but it was made by the Linux Mint team (ubuntu based) that did a similar thing using more updated backends like gnome3 tech but gnome2 presentation... | 04:08 |
| DarinMiller | yes, I used to love gnome2 with compiz. Made computing fun again. | 04:09 |
| ForgeAus | so it looks like mate but is a little different... | 04:09 |
| ForgeAus | yes KDE3 can work with compiz too but like I said for this particular use for me, not practical... | 04:09 |
| ForgeAus | otherwise if it were I'd be using plasma5 instead :) | 04:09 |
| ForgeAus | anyway... as for unity, thats the default Ubuntu Environment gnome-based but its own tangent, that initially looked very MacOSX-like (at the time of Leaopard anyway) | 04:10 |
| ForgeAus | but it was its own thing using a sidebar with applets I think they called them scopes or something... | 04:10 |
| ForgeAus | I don't think Canonical has moved on from Unity as the default shell yet... Id on't know if they'll go to some Gnome3, I doubt they'll go to Cinnamon, they might just stick with Unity or develop something new... | 04:11 |
| ForgeAus | again thats all mostly ubuntu not kubuntu stuff... | 04:11 |
| ForgeAus | I definitely favor kde-based... | 04:12 |
| ForgeAus | it at least feels far more friendly and configurable... although I would agree its much heavier (I don't know as I'd call it bloat though)... | 04:13 |
| ForgeAus | Gnome is decently heavy anyway... (when I said much heavier I was comparing to like XFCE/LXDE/Fluxbox, etc... lightweight shells..) | 04:14 |
| DarinMiller | plasma5 really cleaned up the "underwater" feeling that I leanred to live with in KDE4. | 04:14 |
| ForgeAus | hehe air, oxygen, breathe? | 04:14 |
| ForgeAus | I'm not sure I like the whole "flat" style thing that breeze icons have, they look too plain/simplified... | 04:15 |
| ForgeAus | I prefer the glossier flash that crystal had... | 04:15 |
| ForgeAus | Oxygen was alright... | 04:15 |
| ForgeAus | I liked how windows could have watermarks and stuff (the air side of it) | 04:16 |
| ForgeAus | and I definitely loved kwin's compisiting effects, from wobbly windows to the desktop cube :) | 04:16 |
| ForgeAus | compiz can do most of that kinda stuff if not more, I think Unity relies on compiz for all that stuff.. | 04:17 |
| DarinMiller | I hate to be critical but I really dislike the flat look. I sure the style will eventually pass, but choose non-flat when the option is available. | 04:17 |
| ForgeAus | and kde3 (especially Trinity) can work with compiz too | 04:17 |
| ForgeAus | I agree, but hey its preference if people like that thats fine, I do kinda get the appeal, its not a criticism from me, its a personal preference... | 04:18 |
| ForgeAus | I had a similar thing with my iPad initially I hated the flat-look ... but learned to accept it... | 04:20 |
| ForgeAus | I still prefer the previous style, but I haven't had difficulties or problems with the flat-style, and it does bring an element of cleanliness to the look... | 04:21 |
| ForgeAus | but it also seems to steal a sense of personality and style too... | 04:21 |
| ForgeAus | its gives and it takes but what do you expect?... | 04:21 |

| adymitruk | any idea how to make my headphones work? | 06:06 |
| adymitruk | just getting stuff out of the speakers | 06:06 |
| Dragnslcr | adymitruk- under System Settings -> Multimedia there are options for changing the audio output | 06:11 |
| Dragnslcr | You can check there to see if it's switching to the headphones | 06:11 |
| adymitruk | Dragnslcr: nothing happens when i choose headphones. sound still just coming from the laptop speakers | 06:16 |
| adymitruk | used to work.. | 06:16 |
| Dragnslcr | Check Multimedia -> Audio and Video -> Audio Hardware Setup | 06:21 |
| Dragnslcr | I only get an option for headphones if the hardware profile is set to Analog Stereo Output | 06:21 |
| adymitruk | it has that | 06:21 |
| adymitruk | but sound still comes from computer speakers, even when hitting the test buttons | 06:22 |
| adymitruk | brb.. will reboot | 06:22 |
| === mib is now known as Guest98193 | ||
| fei | bbb | 06:26 |
| adymitruk | well, there might be a problem with the hardware.. booted to ubuntu mate and the same issue | 06:40 |
| adymitruk | sound that's meant to go to the headphones is coming out of the speakers | 06:40 |
| adymitruk | no different than kubuntu | 06:40 |
| hateball | adymitruk: got a different set of headphones to try? | 06:41 |
| hateball | could be the hardware switch is broken on either headphones or in the computer | 06:42 |
| hateball | iirc you can still force it using alsa tho... | 06:42 |
| adymitruk | yes tried another headset | 06:42 |
| adymitruk | same thing | 06:42 |
| adymitruk | so I think that may confirm that there's hardware switch issues | 06:45 |
| adymitruk | although I'm not sure | 06:45 |
| adymitruk | the volume changes when I plug in the headphones and then again when I take them out | 06:45 |
| adymitruk | just by maybe 10% | 06:45 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Robert Welti> Hi! When can we expect Plasma 5.7 landing in 16.04.? Approximately 2 weeks ago someone said that the backporting is almost done. :-) | 09:11 |
| ferry_ | Anyone noticed Kontact (Yakkety) does not support drag/drop of attachments anymore? https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=215&t=136789&sid=6082f4f5c47686f288c64e1f307142bf | 09:28 |
| ferry_ | This has now become a daily annoyance... | 09:29 |
| ferry_ | Any chance 16.08.1 will be in the backports ppa? | 09:30 |
| em | did anyone else notice that the default background in kubuntu 16.10 doesn't look very nice? | 09:49 |
| hateball | A case of personal preference :) | 09:54 |
| ForgeAus | changing them is what defaults are for isn't it? :) | 10:00 |
| mparillo | There was some discussion about the feasibility of going straight to Plasma 5.8.x. In that case, it would need to land in ZZ first. | 10:24 |
| hateball | plasma 5.8.3 would be rather nice to have :o | 10:25 |
| BluesKaj | Hey folks | 10:36 |
| acheronuk | ferry: 16.08 PIM requires Qtwebengine, which is not even in Zesty yet and we would have to wait for, so it may be a little while | 10:43 |
| acheronuk | mparillo plasma 5.8 WILL be nice to have | 10:44 |
| BluesKaj | I'm have 2 computers tied up doing media file backups, so Zesty testing has to wait til romorrow | 10:47 |
| BluesKaj | I have, rather | 10:48 |
| BluesKaj | tomorrow even...need more coffee | 10:50 |
| * BluesKaj turns auto spell check on | 10:53 | |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Robert Welti> So it is not discussed yet? | 10:56 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Robert Welti> I would prefer getting 5.7 now and take time to implement 5.8 thoroughly. | 10:57 |
| Sevish | hey group, I'm trying to diagnose a problem with my kubuntu install on my laptop, but I don't have much experience | 11:04 |
| Sevish | sometimes when I boot, I get the kubuntu logo, then it will disappear and I get a black screen with a underscore in the top corner | 11:05 |
| Sevish | the system doesn't respond after that | 11:05 |
| Sevish | usually if I reboot once or a few times, I am able to get in | 11:05 |
| Sevish | this is 16.04, and the problem has been with me for about a week | 11:06 |
| teledyn | any news on 5.8 backport coming to yakkety? | 11:11 |

| === logan_ is now known as Guest58040 | ||
| ferry_ | @hateball: em has a point. However the best way to formulate that would be : when asked 90% of people thinks the 16.10 background is not very nice / ugly, which is an increase from 60% for 16.04 (or similar numbers) | 13:10 |
| BluesKaj_ | even the splash screen is ugly | 13:12 |
| ferry_ | says 55% :-) | 13:13 |
| BluesKaj_ | I replace the desktop background as my first priority after an install since plasma 5 was introduced | 13:14 |
| ferry_ | But even though I don't like the colors of the desktop in 16.10 I like the evolution from 15.10 - 16.04 - 16.10, like an animation in slow motion. | 13:18 |
| ForgeAus | BluesKaj got a link to a screenshot of it? ... | 13:20 |
| acheronuk | I sort quite like the 5.5 background, but still would not keep it. The rest of the default ones have been quite awful | 13:22 |
| BluesKaj_ | ForgeAus, before or after? | 13:24 |
| acheronuk | 16.10 default splash http://i.imgur.com/KmY5eFm.png | 13:26 |
| ferry_ | https://youtu.be/srHLiHiLmrg | 13:47 |
| ForgeAus | ok well maybe its just me but of that evolution the first one I liked better... | 13:51 |
| BluesKaj_ | I don't like the login or the splash, both are "fugly" to me | 14:01 |
| ForgeAus | in theory I think I kinda like the colors but they don't seem to work together for some reason... | 14:02 |
| acheronuk | I tend to set a dark wallpaper and do away with the splash screen altogether | 14:04 |
| BluesKaj_ | I'm waiting for more splash options like the kde4 splash screen options | 14:05 |

| araj | I am trying to run KDE without KWIN and plasma, it works as such | 19:31 |
| araj | however, settings do not take effect | 19:32 |
| araj | so if I change icon theme, from systemsettings5, it will applay and show no error but icons will also not change | 19:32 |
| araj | what maybe going wrong? | 19:33 |
| araj | for now I am starting kde via .xsession, I have disabled plasmashell and export KDEWM to startkde | 19:34 |
| BluesKaj_ | araj, well good luck with that | 19:37 |
| araj | BluesKaj_: It seems I need lot of it | 19:39 |
| BluesKaj_ | kde/plasma is the Kubuntu-Desktop, if you don't use it , then don't expect support here, araj | 19:41 |
| mixxit | h | 19:41 |
| mixxit | hi | 19:41 |
| mixxit | i get a black screen after installing nvidia recommended driver | 19:41 |
| mixxit | i can drop to console and startx fine though | 19:41 |
| BluesKaj_ | !nomodeset | mixxit | 19:42 |
| ubottu | mixxit: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 19:42 |
| mixxit | doesnt work | 19:42 |
| mixxit | first thing i tried :-) | 19:43 |
| araj | BluesKaj_: kubuntu is not just limitede to desktop but it also includes apps | 19:43 |
| BluesKaj_ | mixxit, did you update and upgrade your packages before installing the driver | 19:44 |
| mixxit | yeah | 19:44 |
| mixxit | brb gonna try disabling secure boot | 19:44 |
| BluesKaj_ | araj, those apps use kde/plasma | 19:46 |
| araj | BluesKaj_: really!! for example I do not see relation between konsole and plasma | 19:47 |
| araj | BluesKaj_: what if some body wants to use a KDE app from another deskopt env. it can't be like all or nothing case | 19:48 |
| BluesKaj_ | araj, this is not a debate, we support those who use kde/plasma if you wish not to do so then go to #ubuntu chat for support...they might help you | 19:49 |
| araj | BluesKaj_: i see, thanks for your time | 19:51 |

| mixxit | 7) Deleted Oem user, restarted | 20:47 |
| mixxit | Now i get a black screen | 20:47 |
| mixxit | it seems that maybe sddm is somehow tied to the oem user? | 20:47 |
| mixxit | sorry* i say reinstalled kde i mean i reinstalled kubuntu from scratch | 20:48 |
| rattking | have you looked at the X log to see what it has to say? /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 20:52 |
| mixxit | well i can login command line and startx fine | 20:52 |
| rattking | oh.. thats interesting | 20:53 |
| rattking | by oem user are you meaning the one that the installer created? | 20:54 |
| mixxit | do you know how to disable auto login | 20:54 |
| mixxit | cause im thinking its trying to auto login as oem | 20:54 |
| mixxit | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sddm/+bug/1499243 | 20:54 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1499243 in sddm (Ubuntu) "sddm hangs when autologin set to a non-existent user" [Undecided,New] | 20:54 |
| mixxit | reading this | 20:54 |
| rattking | I am unaware of any oem user | 20:54 |
| rattking | autologin settings for sddm are in /etc/sddm.conf | 20:56 |
| mixxit | ok thats set to oem | 20:59 |
| mixxit | i dont want auto login anyway, can i remove the file? | 20:59 |
| mixxit | or just remove hte [Autologin] section? | 20:59 |
| rattking | dont do that if you want sddm to work :) comment out the line with a # symbol | 20:59 |
| mixxit | just User=oem ? | 20:59 |
| rattking | manpage says "User= Name of the user to automatically log in when the system starts first time. Default value is empty." so maybe just make make it blank | 20:59 |

| genii | A note to all helpers and lurkers: LTS to LTS upgrade of Kubuntu from 14.04 to 16.04 should not be used. The issue has been added to the Xerus Release Notes section now at: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XenialXerus/ReleaseNotes#Upgrade | 22:14 |
| rattking | thanks for the notice.. any details or a ticket I can look at? | 22:16 |
| genii | We're looking at maybe documenting what to do to recover a system in this broken state, there may be more later. Currently no tickets regarding this however. | 22:19 |
| genii | rattking: There may be something in the #kubuntu-devel mailing list archives about it | 22:25 |
| rattking | awesome thanks | 22:26 |
