| valorie | no .exe in linux | 00:00 |
| valorie | Albertx: https://kubuntu.org/getkubuntu/ to download the ISO | 00:01 |
| valorie | !iso | 00:01 |
| ubottu | To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. | 00:01 |
| Albertx | I need create partition linux ext , if the iso convert partition to ext | 00:06 |
| Albertx | I have downloaded this last 16.04 y 14 | 00:11 |
| Albertx | :) | 00:12 |
| valorie | you can use the liveDVD or liveUSB to partition as you like | 00:15 |
| valorie | !partition | 00:15 |
| ubottu | For help with partitioning a new install see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowtoPartition | For partitioning programs, see !GParted (recommended) or !PartitionManager. Other partitioning topics include !fstab, !home, and !swap | 00:15 |
| Albertx | ... | 00:20 |
| Albertx | !gparted | 00:21 |
| ubottu | gparted is a !GTK/!Gnome !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php | 00:21 |
| Albertx | !swap | 00:21 |
| ubottu | swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info | 00:21 |
| Albertx | swap soul is visible in linux | 00:21 |
| valorie | it is possible to use just parted too, I think | 00:29 |
| valorie | !info parted | 00:29 |
| ubottu | parted (source: parted): disk partition manipulator. In component main, is standard. Version 3.2-15build1 (yakkety), package size 45 kB, installed size 159 kB | 00:29 |

| jefflinuxturner | Trying to install GTK themes on Kubuntu and I get the loading symbol going around and around and around. Yay it's broke. lol. But the window decorations loads just fine. Anyone know how I can fix this issue? Same in Linux Mint 18 KDE. | 01:50 |
| t3chguy | is it possible to change the function of the Suspend button in the logout/shutdown prompt to Hibernation? Thanks | 06:33 |
| zztopless | Does anyone know the switch to skip all duplicates (ie don't over-ride existing files/folders) when using 7zip from console? Using the following to extract al 7zip files in a directory: find -type f -name '*.7z' -exec 7z x {} \; | 06:37 |
| zztopless | I'm running 14.04 fwiw | 06:37 |

| user|59547 | Hi, I am a newbie to KDE, I couldnt find Tamil Keyboard Layout in the system settings of Kubuntu 16.04, where as other Gnome based Ubuntu Variants has , Ubuntu, Ubuntu Mate, Ubuntu Gnome, Can you help me out ? | 06:55 |
| valorie | hmmm | 06:55 |
| valorie | I wonder if that is a little package that has to be installed | 06:56 |
| valorie | I know that we don't include langpacks on the ISO anymore | 06:56 |
| krytarik | Pretty sure that's just a matter of *finding* the entry. | 06:58 |
| valorie | user|59547: did you try System Settings...> Language Support > Install Languages | 06:58 |
| krytarik | Don't confuse language packs with keyboard layouts. | 06:59 |
| valorie | or easiest: alt+space, and then type language | 06:59 |
| valorie | perhaps you have to have the langpack first? | 07:00 |
| valorie | I was looking at http://askubuntu.com/questions/165637/how-do-i-enable-writing-in-indian-languages | 07:01 |
| valorie | oh, they left | 07:01 |
| krytarik | valorie: https://sources.debian.net/src/xkeyboard-config/2.18-1/symbols/in/#L1052 , in the package 'xkb-data'. | 07:10 |
| valorie | indeed! | 07:14 |
| valorie | good detective work | 07:14 |
| zztopless | thanks krytarik | 07:23 |
| zztopless | been googling in circles trying to find that, I'm guessing it works with .rar and .zip as well (eg: find -type f -name '*.rar' -exec 7z x -aos {} \;)? | 07:31 |
| zztopless | Will find out when I try it after the 7zip files are finished :P | 07:31 |

| claycorn | very much | 08:51 |

| claycorn | free os is the best | 08:51 |
| claycorn | mum your aussy as heck | 08:51 |
| zztopless | I actually use mint linux kde, but for most intents and purposes (such as asking for help on irc), it's identical to kubuntu | 08:52 |
| zztopless | lol | 08:52 |
| claycorn | i use kubuntu | 08:52 |
| claycorn | kde | 08:52 |
| zztopless | Brits say mum too, infact I believe all English speaking countries do outside of north america (ie us and canada) | 08:52 |

| zztopless | I'm pretty sure Mom is used everywhere in the US and Canada? | 08:53 |
| claycorn | dilalecs in the usa differ | 08:54 |
| zztopless | Yeah I get that, but I'm pretty sure that word is universal (ie Mum isn't used) | 08:54 |
| claycorn | as much of linux | 08:54 |
| claycorn | os of the world | 08:55 |
| zztopless | English accent and diaelects vary enormously in the US, it's pretty cool. Here it's either broad (rural/exaggerated - think Steve Irwin - or General (most people living in cities, which is the majority of people) | 08:56 |

| claycorn | your running kde? | 09:11 |
| zztopless | when i was in Singapore for the race in 2011, all the Brits and Americans that were there for it were complaining about how expensive alcohol is in Singapore, but it was similar to Australian pubs (we have a fairly high alcohol tax + people earn more so bars charge more lol), so it didn't bother me | 09:11 |
| zztopless | yes, mint kde (basically the same as kubuntu) 14.04. I find kde 5+ still isn't vmware (or virtualbox for that matter) freindly enough, pretty as it is. | 09:12 |
| claycorn | im on kubuntu 14.04 | 09:12 |
| zztopless | native on as a vm? | 09:13 |
| claycorn | my fave disrto | 09:13 |
| zztopless | I still run windows as the host on my main pc | 09:13 |
| claycorn | on full | 09:13 |
| zztopless | and run mint as a vm | 09:13 |
| claycorn | full boot on my laptop | 09:13 |
| zztopless | on my home server, I run mint natively (finally got owncloud working) | 09:13 |
| zztopless | cool | 09:13 |
| claycorn | no dual | 09:14 |
| claycorn | wanna hear story? | 09:14 |
| claycorn | a< | 09:15 |
| zztopless | I'm also setting up plex, so I can stream my media from home when I'm elsewhere | 09:15 |
| zztopless | sure, I like stories | 09:15 |
| claycorn | this laptop was old and used to be tosssed to the dustben till friend asked me me to fix it bad charger chord with a bad win 7 os i have the chord and a copy of kubntu | 09:17 |

| claycorn | linux saves the day | 09:19 |
| zztopless | ubuntu is great with drivers these days | 09:19 |
| claycorn | indeeed | 09:19 |
| zztopless | windows 7 almost always requires manually installing a bunch of drivers, even 10 still doesn't get everything (desktop or laptops) for machines that were built for win7 or earlier | 09:19 |
| claycorn | it is | 09:19 |
| claycorn | i have 3 pc in my house | 09:20 |
| claycorn | 2 desktops | 09:20 |
| claycorn | 1 laptop | 09:20 |
| zztopless | I like lubuntu for really old/underpowered machines if you still want a gui desktop | 09:20 |
| claycorn | i love kubuntu | 09:20 |
| zztopless | I run fpsense for my routher/firewall (linux, based on freeBSD) machine, mint kde 14.04 for my web/file server and windows with a mint kde vm for my main workstation | 09:22 |
| zztopless | oh and a dualboot of windows 1 and mint 14.04 on my laptop | 09:22 |
| claycorn | sweet your a good geek | 09:23 |
| zztopless | Well, I'm ok, you can Google how to do most things these days | 09:23 |
| claycorn | yes i know how to do that | 09:23 |
| claycorn | im am an old geek | 09:24 |
| zztopless | I mainly wanted to make use of my 40Mbit upload speed of my home connection (and static IP), hence the machine running owncloud and plex (and because you need a lampp stack to run both, I'll set up a home gateway website at some point) | 09:24 |
| claycorn | one laptop? | 09:25 |
| zztopless | seems irc these days tends to scew middle aged and older :P Kids with their facebooks and instagrams *shakes fist at change* | 09:25 |
| zztopless | yeah, just the one and I remote desktop into my desktop when I use it | 09:26 |
| claycorn | thats amazing | 09:26 |
| zztopless | so unless i'm somewhere without internet, I don't really use the laptop's resources | 09:26 |
| claycorn | wow | 09:26 |
| claycorn | she must me a good laptop | 09:27 |
| claycorn | be> | 09:27 |
| zztopless | yeah, another reason I set up pfsense was to have more control setting up vpn access into my home network when I'm out. I managed to set it up so that I can use steam in-home streaming from anywhere using the vpn connection (openvpn at first, now ppptp for less latency) | 09:28 |
| claycorn | what got yo in to linux? | 09:29 |
| claycorn | you, | 09:29 |
| zztopless | not really, HP with an AMD A7. 8GB of ram. Battery life is terrible (old battery, going to get a few spares) | 09:29 |
| zztopless | I honestly can't remember | 09:29 |
| claycorn | i worked at a loacal collage leaned about linux | 09:31 |
| zztopless | When cable first came to our street back in 2000, I learned how to use red hat as a router, that was probably the first, outside of a little bit at uni. No wifi or free routers back then, just a cable modem with one ethernet port | 09:31 |
| claycorn | learned | 09:31 |

| BluesKaj | Howdy all | 11:56 |
| Smurphy | yo | 12:00 |
| BluesKaj | yo yo | 12:02 |
| Eli2_ | hi, can anyone tell me how to disable notification sounds on kubuntu 16.04 ? | 12:23 |
| BluesKaj | Eli2_, syrtem settings>notifications>notifications> click on the button near the bottom: "disable sounds for all these events" | 12:29 |
| Eli2_ | BluesKaj, there is no such button | 12:30 |
| Eli2_ | i already disabled sounds for all sources i could find, but i still get that annoying pling | 12:32 |
| BluesKaj | Eli2_, which kubuntu version? | 12:38 |
| Eli2_ | BluesKaj, 16.04 with the backports ppa | 12:38 |
| BluesKaj | ok you have a diffeent plasma version than I do, there used to be a setting that would mute all sounds in system settings>applications>launch feedback iirc | 12:42 |
| Eli2_ | plasmashell --version returns 5.6.5 | 12:43 |
| BluesKaj | "no sounds " or some such | 12:43 |
| Smurphy | There is not. Just checked. | 12:43 |
| Smurphy | plasmashell 5.6.5 | 12:43 |
| BluesKaj | ok , then I'm mistaken, my memory fails | 12:44 |
| Eli2_ | if its not in the gui, is there any way to disable that via the console or a config file somehow | 12:44 |
| Smurphy | It does not. 5.6.5 just has that removed IMHO | 12:44 |
| Smurphy | It should be configuration under Event Notifications though. But it's for every entry. | 12:45 |
| Smurphy | app | 12:45 |
| BluesKaj | yeah , it takeds forever to turn of audio notifiers | 12:45 |
| BluesKaj | off | 12:45 |
| BluesKaj | but I'm running plasma 5.8.3 which does have the "disable sounds for all these events" button | 12:46 |
| Eli2_ | i already turned all of them off | 12:46 |
| Smurphy | They brought it back. | 12:47 |
| Eli2_ | stuff that makes the sound is e.g. the popup when i exit amarok from the tray | 12:47 |
| Smurphy | BTW - you installed from ppa ther 5.8.3? | 12:47 |
| Eli2_ | hmmm, didn't try restarting, brb | 12:49 |
| Eli2 | hmmm, that seems to have worked | 12:52 |
| Eli2 | weird | 12:52 |
| BluesKaj | Eli2, I'm on 16.10 using staging-plasma and frameworks ppas | 12:55 |
| Eli2 | kubuntu 16.04 seems to be a very rough release | 12:55 |
| Smurphy | Eli2: Nah. it works nicely. Even my kids 10/12/14 like it :D | 12:58 |
| BluesKaj | Eli2, if you upgraded via the internet from 14.04 there may be some rough patches until you have all the new packages and point releases on 16.04 | 13:01 |
| Eli2 | BluesKaj, i upgraded from 14.04 and it was the worst upgrade experience i ever had | 13:06 |
| Eli2 | i the end i just gave up and reinstalled | 13:08 |
| BluesKaj | Smurphy, your kids probly never drank the MS kool-ade :-) | 13:08 |
| Smurphy | They did. Only I refused to fix their computers running Windows (Viruses etc.), and whey these destroyed not only Windows and also their linux partition, they stopped using Windows. | 13:09 |
| Smurphy | Learning by Doing :} *EviLGrinning* | 13:09 |
| BluesKaj | :-) | 13:10 |
| Smurphy | Thing is - their computers are not able to access the LAN while under Windows. So completely on an Enclave LAN. | 13:10 |
| Smurphy | And they hate not being able to listen to music etc. | 13:10 |
| Smurphy | :} | 13:10 |
| BluesKaj | Eli2, did you have separate / and /home partitions when you rinstalled? | 13:10 |
| Eli2 | luckily | 13:11 |
| Eli2 | just formatted / | 13:11 |
| Eli2 | tbh i was very close to just restoring the backups or switching to debian testing | 13:12 |
| Eli2 | probably would have gone with debian, because the reason i upgraded in the first place was that i wanted a newer gcc | 13:13 |
| BluesKaj | was thinking about all the config files in the tansition from plasma4 to 5 caused some problems for my setup when I upgraded via thenet | 13:14 |
| BluesKaj | those problems caused me to upgrade to 16.10 tbh | 13:16 |
| Eli2 | maybe a more prominent warning about upgrading to 16.04 would be nice | 13:16 |
| BluesKaj | but I'm a home user , this isn't a production machine | 13:16 |
| BluesKaj | Eli2,well a lot of the problems are hardware dependent too | 13:17 |
| Eli2 | never had problems with it | 13:18 |
| Eli2 | this machine has a very long history on ubuntu | 13:18 |
| Eli2 | switched to kubuntu with 14.04 because i did not like the direction unity is taking | 13:18 |
| BluesKaj | yes , but some releases are worse than others when it comes to HW | 13:19 |
| Eli2 | i am pretty sure my issues were not hardware related | 13:20 |

| user|75085 | I'm in the Xenial Kubuntu Live Lightdm login screen and thought I could login as "guest" (w/o password) but this won't work! | 20:01 |
| user|75085 | Any other user/passw combinaations ? | 20:02 |
| BluesKaj | leave them blank on live media | 20:03 |
| Gavinjb | hi all | 20:03 |
| acheronuk | user = kubuntu pw= blank I think? | 20:03 |
| user|75085 | OK, I'll try this... | 20:04 |
| BluesKaj | thought autologin was default on live media anyway , I haven't seen a login page on them | 20:05 |
| user|75085 | blank+blank fails, Ubuntu+blank ffails, kubuntu+blank ffails | 20:06 |
| user|75085 | I have access to the Alt+Ctl+F1 console, although I have to login there too. | 20:07 |
| acheronuk | let me test | 20:08 |
| acheronuk | on 16.04 Xenial here, live session will log in with the live session user and a blank password | 20:10 |
| user|75085 | Thanks! | 20:13 |
