[00:41] <Tenketsu> Hey Guys, I'm looking to see if any has successfully installed xrdp with kde. I keep getting a grey screen but so far all workarounds I have found involve using xfce
[00:44] <em> I installed Kubuntu 16.10 on my new Thinkpad X230 and it is the absolute best experience I have ever had with Linux in the last 10 years.
[00:44] <em> Everything works out of the box. Absolutely flawless.
[00:45] <em> The one single adjustment I had to make was the default wallpaper.
[00:46] <acheronuk> em: great to hear that :)
[00:46] <ussher_> getting a black screen on before login on one of my machines today.  No login box.  One time it did popup the "plasma crashed send bug report" dialog.   Rebooted and that doesnt appear anymore, just black.  tried renaming  ~/.cache to ~/.cache-old  still no luck. any ideas?
[00:48] <ussher_> its 16.04 LTS and has been updated with recent updates.  same updates on current machine and the machine is working fine.
[00:48] <Tenketsu> GFX drivers working ok?
[00:49] <ussher_> not sure, how do I test that from the ctrl+alt+f5 screen?
[00:50] <Tenketsu> generally boot and startup logs.
[00:50] <Tenketsu> but if startx doesnt work, id bet on gfx card
[00:50] <ussher_> dmesg |grep error doesnt show any errors
[00:51] <ussher_> startx starts it, shows a cursor and is now showing the plasma dialog.
[00:52] <ussher_> says "executable: plasmashell pid 1887 signal aborted (6)"
[00:52] <ussher_> thats something to go on.  i'll investigate that.  thanks
[00:52] <Tenketsu> no problem^^
[00:55] <Tenketsu> Anyone tried xrdp on 16.04 with kde? I don't wanna user xfce for remote vm
[00:55] <Tenketsu> use**
[01:15] <steves_> yesterday I downloaded the kubuntu updates and rebooted.   Now when I log in to my normal user area the resolution is  not what it used to be (1600x1200).   Yes I can manually use xrandr to change the resolution, but what is the best way to make it permament?
[01:17] <ussher_> if you change it in SYSTEM SETTINGS -> DISPLAY AND MONITOR does it persist?
[01:17] <steves_> Not across a reboot
[01:17] <steves_> .. or logout
[01:19] <ussher_> thats all that was necessary for me here.  even with start with an empyt session set at SYSTEM SETTINGS -> DESKTOP SESSION.  perhaps try setting that to "restore previous session"
[01:23] <ussher_> Tenketsu: you were right, I purged nvidia and I can login again.  thanks.
[02:42] <proteusguy_satri> I've just reinstalled 14.04. I am located in Thailand and need to be able to switch my keyboard input between English (the primary) and Thai. There used to be some selector in the bottom toolbar but I don't find it any more.
[02:42] <proteusguy_satri> In my Country/Region settings I have English and Thai installed as Preferred Languages. I just can't figure out how to change my keyboard inputs back and forth between the two.
[02:51] <ussher_> proteusguy_satri: try adding another keyboard layout.  from system settings -> inputs
[02:54] <proteusguy_satri> Ah thanx! Was hidden as a device setting rather than a locale setting. Got it now.
[06:06] <zeed> Hi, I have a problem setting up a proxy on Konversation. I insert the proxy number and the port as normal and them apply but no proxy connection is used. Someone can help me?
[06:44] <youri> hi, who can help me, i got an issue for getting access to internet with a kubuntu os
[07:14] <xXEoflaOEXx> hi
[07:43] <user|97890> how to install kubuntu
[07:45] <jfd5xte> Anybody know whether a Digikam 5.x backport is in progress?
[09:35] <clavi> How do I get Korean input in Kubuntu 16.10? The Plasma systemsettings just seem to enable an english keyboard, but I want to input Hangul like on Windows. Do I have to install ibus?
[11:12] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[11:46] <Guest78918> hi
[11:46] <Guest78918> i cannot start mz pc, somehow i see only darkwindow
[11:47] <Guest78918> i did yesterday an update, then today i only see something when i exec sudo startx, wich ofc is not the right way to go
[11:49] <Guest78918> i dont know if here is the right place to ask for possible solutions..
[11:55] <hateball> Guest78918: you should "sudo service sddm start" for starters
[11:56] <hateball> Guest78918: What kind of GPU do you have? Perhaps the update broke the drivers
[11:56] <hateball> Guest78918: You could hold left shift during boot to get into grub menu and pick an older kernel, if that is what was broken with the update
[11:56] <Guest78918> nvidia
[11:56] <Guest78918> i tried with a lot of kernels
[11:58] <Guest78918> n i tried with sudo service lightdm it didnt work anyhow
[11:58] <Guest78918> i have also lightdm
[11:59] <Guest78918> hateball: do u know what is the name of the none propietarz drivers _
[11:59] <Guest78918> propieraty drivers? * sorry
[12:00] <hateball> Guest78918: Can you get to a tty? ctrl+alt+f1
[12:00] <hateball> Guest78918: so we could try and fix whatever broken stuff there might be
[12:00] <Guest78918> yep but now im on chroot
[12:00] <Guest78918> yep
[12:02] <Guest78918> the problem is... if i restart n try to do anything...i cannot be here
[12:03] <hateball> Guest78918: Do you get black screen even before login manager?
[12:03] <hateball> Guest78918: If so, try booting with the kernel parameter nomodeset
[12:03] <Guest78918> yes master
[12:04] <Guest78918> i forgot that one... how can i do that? or should i try over chroot?
[12:04] <hateball> Guest78918: hold left shift when you boot to get into grub menu, edit the bootline which by default ends with "quiet splash"
[12:04] <hateball> Guest78918: and just add "nomodeset" there, without the ""
[12:05] <Guest78918> alright... im gonna try. we see us later master
[12:32] <EventHorizon> evening...  any ideas about network manager allowing some networks to connect to my vpn but other not??? i.e. no internet access.
[12:33] <EventHorizon> would the bssid field have an impact???
[13:27] <KingPrawn22> Hi all. Wanting to install in VirtualBox. Have loaded it up, but there's no prompt to install it. Just loads up the live desktop and sits there doing nothing. Can I run it another way?
[13:27] <KingPrawn22> Never mind, was being a right silly sausage.
[13:28] <KingPrawn22> Application to install exists in System.
[13:28] <KingPrawn22> Was just strange that nothing popped up
[14:28] <aniketh_> Hey
[14:28] <aniketh_> I was finding error while running the command sudo apt-get upgrade.
[14:28] <aniketh_> I am using kubuntu 16.04 (LTS)
[14:30] <aniketh_> https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/NfVzmZjK/
[14:37] <hateball> aniketh_: what does "apt-cache policy libindi1" say?
[14:37] <hateball> because that looks like a PPA package
[14:37] <aniketh_> https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/hLYA3sRt/
[14:38] <hateball> yep, so a problem with that ppa.
[14:38] <hateball> !ppa
[14:38] <aniketh_> hateball:  Hmm.. So I have to remove that package right
[14:38] <aniketh_> ?
[14:39] <aniketh_> I think sudo apt-get remove <packagename> might work ?
[14:39] <hateball> Well the dependency needs to be resolved somehow, either by fixing the PPA builds, or by removing that package yes
[14:40] <aniketh_> hmm..
[14:40] <hateball> anyhows, thats your problem
[14:41] <hateball> I am off, good luck :)
[14:41] <aniketh_> I will try
[14:41] <aniketh_> Also is the new kubuntu stable ?
[14:41] <aniketh_> 16.10 ?
[15:03] <syedkhalil1978> Hello Guys I was wondering when kubuntu 16.04 is going to get kde plasma 5.7 in the backports repo??
[15:03] <syedkhalil1978> and what about plasma 5.8 is it a possibility?
[15:12] <hobbybike> ciao a tutti

[15:45] <mhall119> hello Kubuntu folks, the Ubuntu Online Summit is coming up in 2 weeks, and I'm looking for people who want to present something about Kubuntu or a project they're working on within the community
[16:10] <konrados> Morning everyone!
[16:14] <konrados> I want to have a possibility to translate to/from English, using a desktop app. So I'm following this: http://hackerspace.kinja.com/highlight-and-google-translate-any-text-in-linux-1648824665 I did everything up to the #3 point, and now I have problems understanding #4 - "Assign hotkeys for seltr using built-in tools or via xbindkeys." I don't know what "built-in tools" are or how to use "xbindkeys" to assign keyboard shortcuts...
[16:17] <konrados> On the xbindkeys website they say "xbindkeys uses a configuration file to link a command to a key on your keyboard. Usually this (file) is : $HOME/.xbindkeyrc" - but there is no such file...
[16:19] <konrados> Or maybe I should ask this on ##linux?
[16:20] <konrados> I never know where to ask linux-specific questions :(
[16:20] <konrados> kde, plasma, ubuntu, kubuntu, linux...
[16:20] <konrados> unix...
[16:22] <acheronuk> mhall119: thanks. will pass that on. may be better with that message is -devel as well
[16:33] <G0rdiux> hello
[16:34] <G0rdiux> i have a problem with the installation of kubuntu 16.10
[18:23] <ryanm> anyone ever noticed rtcwake work sometimes but not all the time?  when i'm testing over a mintue or two it works fine, but when sleeping the computer for hours it doesn't wake up.
[18:24] <ryanm> For example, this script (run as root via cron) at 1am doesn't wake the computer.  It used to.  /usr/sbin/rtcwake -m disk -t $(/bin/date +%s -d 'today 09:00')
[18:31] <user|38616> pl ?

[19:22] <linda__> I am having a problem with my Pictures folder. When I click on it, it asks me what program I would like to open it with. I chose dolphin, but it just opens a bunch of windows. I don't see the folder in my Home folder, but if I try to create a folder called Pictures, it tells me that that folder exists. Any ideas?
[19:59] <yocs0000> hi everybody .... management of mysql sver on kubuntu is not brilliant for newbies, is it?
[22:03] <martinez_> hellou
[22:47] <mas886> I'm havign a problem with ark, I can't uncompress a rar file it says "Could not find the right connector"
[22:47] <mas886> Which connector should I install?
[22:48] <tsimonq2> http://askubuntu.com/questions/845650/no-normal-german-keyboard-layout-in-kubuntu-16-04-lts
[22:53] <valorie> mas886: perhaps you are missing some of the recommended files for ark
[22:54] <valorie> also, suggests: rar, and unrar
[22:58] <tsimonq2> What if I told you we jump right to 5.8? :)
[23:00] <mas886> valorie: It's a fresh kubuntu 16.10 install, also discover doesn't show any extra installable packages
[23:01] <valorie> bah, discover
[23:01] <valorie> it's not a package manager
[23:01] <valorie> I use Muon
[23:01] <valorie> and looked at the dependencies tab
[23:03] <mas886> valorie: on 16.04 I think discover would show extra packages.
[23:06] <valorie> I've not used it much
[23:06] <valorie> personally I usually use apt in the cli
[23:09] <tsimonq2> We're getting Plasma 5.8.3 in Zesty then in Backports, but all progress is halted at the moment due to some...internal conflicts...
[23:09] <tsimonq2> Slowly though.
[23:09] <tsimonq2> We made *some* progress today.
[23:29] <valorie> @robert Welti -- 5.7.5 has been in backports for a month or two
[23:30] <valorie> for 16.10
[23:30] <valorie> maybe for the LTS as well, I can't recall for sure
[23:40] <konrados> Hi again.
[23:43] <konrados> From time to time I see a dialog like "the file is not save, are you sure you want to exit" or "you made changes, do you want to apply them" (it's from memory, these are not exact messages) and when I have headphones on my head I have heart attack. How can I disable those "notifications" sounds? I'm now on the system settings -> personalization -> Notifications -> Notifications and I can't see it?
