[07:04] <kirk__> hello
[09:26] <N0Lif3> howdy
[09:44] <rohdef> hey, nvidia problems, I have installed via restricted drivers nvidia-367. I can see from lsmod | grep nv that some modules get loaded, good :) but nvidia-settings does not show my card and the XOrg settings are completely messed
[09:45] <rohdef> and nvidia settings gives the following message:
[09:45] <rohdef> nvidia-settings could not find the registry key file. This file should have been installed
[09:45] <rohdef>        along with this driver at /usr/share/nvidia/nvidia-application-profiles-key-documentation.
[10:01] <N0Lif3> I just installed kubuntu 16.10 on my chromebook and the touchpad isn't working. it worked out-of-the-box in Debian and Fedora, but it isnt working now
[10:57] <N0Lif3> Steam won't boot. http://i.imgur.com/MtU1GAh.png
[11:40] <Smurphy> So what? You didn't install steam.
[11:44] <mas886> How can I install flashplugin for chrome and firefox on kubuntu 16.10, have been trying for a few days and failing miserabily.
[11:46] <mas886> ¿?
[11:49] <BluesKaj> Hi folks
[11:53] <mparillo> mas886: You do not need a flash plugin for Chrome. Chrome sandboxes a pepper flash.
[11:54] <mas886> mparillo: firefox then?
[11:55] <mparillo> No idea. If a website I truly trust absolutely requires flash, I switch to Chrome. Otherwise I prefer to never use flash. I judge it to be the biggest software security vulnerability for ordinary Linux users, probably the biggest on MS-Windows as well
[12:03] <Smurphy> +1
[12:10] <mas886> mparillo: and for some reason on chromium I get "connector could not be loaded".d
[12:10] <mas886> I thought I broke it someway but after purging chromium and reinstalling I keep getting the same error.
[12:14] <mparillo> Right. I run Chromium (and FireFox and rekonq) without pepper flash. Only Chrome, which I use only for Google sites (since they know all about me anyway when I use their sites, and for non-Google  websites I truly trust absolutely require flash).
[12:16] <mas886> Meh. Solved it installing vivaldi.
[12:16] <mas886> It seems to have a working flash plugin. Hopely I won't break it. :)
[12:19] <soee_> Vivaldi works great for me :)
[12:22] <mas886> Aswell!
[12:39] <locustmage> hello everyone.
[12:43] <rosella> ciao
[12:46] <locustmage> so im trying to start ubuntu package building but the tutorial is using a package not in current release im building for (16.10)
[12:47] <locustmage> its attempting to show me how bazaar works
[13:08] <Dr_Coke> Hi ho
[14:05] <enrico77> hello
[14:34] <BluesKaj> yeah, vivaldi is one fast browser on this old pc , compared to FF and chrome/chromium even tho it's chrome based
[16:06] <john_s> trying to create a big network backup and then it fails in between and the pipe for it breaks.
[16:06] <john_s> because for a few seconds the link went down.
[16:07] <john_s> and on the first IO error the program basically exits (split).
[16:11] <john_s> and the only thing I can do at this point is patch the split program to allow skipping files that already exist.
[16:11] <john_s> this would only work if I don't encrypt anything but I do not at this point.
[16:12] <john_s> and I hope Tar would be deterministic enough that it can restart doing what it did and still create a consistent archive if I skip the first parts.
[16:14] <john_s> I am backing up to a samba share and cannot sync actual files, so they have to be in an archive, but I cannot create the archive locally because it uses a snapshot (that I created myself using dmsetup ;-)). So the only thing I can do.... is....
[16:14] <john_s> basically use an external drive to the thing to hold the backup first.
[16:15] <john_s> but that's a liability I was trying to avoid and renders the backup pointless in terms of network safety and distance and everything.
[16:17] <john_s> and then I still need a dependable way to copy the files over the link with a restart feature.... :(.
[16:58] <n0wje> hello all new to kubuntu and I have had an error with kmail - The Akonadi personal information managment service is not operational. tried to google for 16.10  nodice anyone have Ideas to point me in the right direction?
[18:29] <Ab3L> hi. in kubuntu 14.04, i've created a new connection (click on the icon of connections on the pannel, then choose the editor and add a new connection).
[18:30] <Ab3L> the type of connection is a vpn pptp
[18:30] <Ab3L> i need to know where are the config files for that new created profile.
[18:31] <Ab3L> in /etc/ppp/ i find only a sample file options.pptp. where are recorded the options i choose?
[18:39] <BluesKaj> Ab3L,  have you installed network-manager-pptp along with vpn providers install application?
[18:41] <Ab3L> BluesKaj: the packages i've installed are pptp-linux, network-manager-pptp and network-manager-pptp-gnome
[18:41] <Ab3L> BluesKaj: did I answer you?
[18:41]  * Ab3L is not sure to have understand the question.
[18:41] <BluesKaj> you don't need network-manager-pptp-gnome afaik
[18:42] <Ab3L> BluesKaj: ok. I think it has been installed by a metapackage
[18:43] <Ab3L> BluesKaj: I don't think it will cause problems at the moment.
[18:43] <BluesKaj> your vpn provider usuallyt has a crt file etc in their installion script usually a nameofpackage.sh  application
[18:44] <Ab3L> BluesKaj: I just need to know where can I see the file with the settings I've chosen
[18:44] <BluesKaj> I prefer openvpn myself , but I'm a home user so your requirements may be different
[18:45] <Ab3L> BluesKaj: I'm also an home user
[18:45] <BluesKaj> it should be in /etc/vpnpptp or some such
[18:45] <Ab3L> BluesKaj: I'm trying to create a personal vpn
[18:46] <Ab3L> BluesKaj: i've no /etc/vpnpptp
[18:47] <Ab3L> BluesKaj: can we continue in the offtopic chan? because i think we will go out of the simple help of kubuntu
[18:49] <BluesKaj> a vpn server Ab3L then you need to install pptpd server
[21:10] <Ab3L> Thank you, BluesKaj
[22:22] <john_s> n0wje: typically peole advise against using any of the kontact programs.
