| linksword2 | Greetings, all. | 09:12 |
| linksword2 | Been a LONG time since I've been on here. My old Linux PC died. | 09:14 |
| linksword2 | How do I authenticate with NickServ? | 09:15 |
| lordievader | linksword2: /msg nickserv help identify | 09:16 |
| linksword2 | thanks, lordievader | 09:16 |
| linksword2 | And now it says I'm not registered? | 09:18 |
| lordievader | Well... did you? | 09:19 |
| linksword2 | Yeah. But it's been a couple years, I suppose? | 09:19 |
| lordievader | Register again? | 09:20 |
| lordievader | Could have been a clean up. | 09:20 |
| linksword2 | You'll forgive me if I've forgotten how to register. It's been an eon. | 09:21 |
| lordievader | linksword2: Just ask nickserv for help ;) | 09:22 |
| lordievader | linksword2: /msg nickserv help | 09:22 |

| weboh | Linux is generally pretty straightforward, but making a shortcut or link on the desktop is too complicated. How can this be simplified? | 09:25 |
| weboh | How can this simplified for the user? I needed to be specific | 09:26 |
| weboh | The user being me who doesn't know how to do it. | 09:27 |
| linksword2 | Cool. Looks like it worked. | 09:31 |
| linksword2 | Now... | 09:31 |
| linksword2 | I'm trying to install Steam (store.steampowered.com) but it's giving me an error 403: Forbidden | 09:31 |
| linksword2 | I'd like a little help figuring it out, if anyone is willing? | 09:34 |
| linksword2 | I've tried several things, including "sudo apt-get install Steam" and "sudo apt-get install Steampowered" | 09:45 |
| chr1s | linksword2: just went to store.steampowered.com and it loads fine for me | 09:46 |
| chr1s | not sure why you're getting a 403 | 09:46 |
| linksword2 | I can go to the website, but I can't get the installer to download. It's giving me a 403 when I click the "Install Steam" button. | 09:46 |
| chr1s | clicked it, got a prompt to save or run so it's working fine | 09:47 |
| linksword2 | Curious.... | 09:47 |
| chr1s | 403 would normally mean you need to login or something but I don't use steam and the link works for me so clearly not | 09:47 |
| lordievader | !info steam | 09:47 |
| ubottu | steam (source: steam): Valve's Steam digital software delivery system. In component multiverse, is extra. Version 1:1.0.0.52-5ubuntu1 (yakkety), package size 1289 kB, installed size 3992 kB | 09:47 |
| lordievader | ^ hence: sudo apt install steam | 09:47 |
| chr1s | nice, if it's in the apt repo then that would be the way i'd install it too .) | 09:48 |
| linksword2 | Just copied the sudeo apt install Steam | 09:50 |
| linksword2 | It's working, apparently. | 09:50 |
| lordievader | linksword2: Linux is case sensitive ;) Steam != steam. | 09:51 |
| linksword2 | Oh, bloody.... | 09:51 |
| linksword2 | I'm also familiar with program called KShutdown, but I can't seem to install it. | 09:55 |
| lordievader | !info kshutdown | 09:57 |
| ubottu | Package kshutdown does not exist in yakkety | 09:57 |
| lordievader | Hmm, doesn't seems to be in the ubuntu repo. | 09:58 |
| linksword2 | http://kshutdown.sourceforge.net/README.html | 09:58 |
| linksword2 | I found it. But I don't know how to get it to install. | 09:59 |
| lordievader | I wouldn't compile it from source... there is a Debian package. I'd just take that one. | 09:59 |
| linksword2 | Where? I don't see the Debian package. | 10:00 |
| lordievader | https://packages.debian.org/jessie/kshutdown | 10:02 |
| linksword2 | This isn't as simple as it used to be.... | 10:04 |
| linksword2 | sudo apt-get install kshutdown was my preferred method. | 10:04 |
| lordievader | It still is... but if the package ain't in the Ubuntu repo.... | 10:05 |
| linksword2 | It should be. Doesn't make sense. | 10:05 |
| lordievader | Why should it be? | 10:05 |
| lordievader | Sure, it would be nice if it is there. But it takes work to get it in there. Work that can go into other things too ;) | 10:06 |
| linksword2 | Without it in the repo, I don't understand how to install it. | 10:06 |
| lordievader | Like I said, install the Debian package. | 10:07 |
| linksword2 | I hate to sound daft, but I need instructions. It's not as easy as sudo apt-get install kshutdown anymore... | 10:08 |
| lordievader | Download the package to somewhere: sudo dpkg -i <path to .deb> | 10:13 |
| linksword2 | Alright. Standby. | 10:14 |
| linksword2 | I'm back. | 10:24 |
| linksword2 | Well, now it says it has installed KShutdown, but is not showing up in the app launcher. | 10:31 |
| lordievader | linksword2: Does the command 'kshutdown' exists? | 10:32 |
| linksword2 | Apparently it does. Is there a way to tell it to be included in the app launcher list? | 10:34 |
| lordievader | linksword2: Probably after you run 'kbuildsyscoca5' it will be included. | 10:35 |
| linksword2 | How do I run that? | 10:36 |
| linksword2 | !amarok | 10:37 |
| ubottu | Audio (Ogg, MP3...) players: Audacious, Banshee, Listen, Quod Libet, Rhythmbox, Exaile, XMMS2 (GTK/Gnome based) and Amarok, JuK (Qt/KDE based). Video players: Totem, Xine, MPlayer, VLC, Kaffeine - See also !codecs | 10:37 |
| lordievader | linksword2: In the konsole. | 10:37 |
| linksword2 | I hate to say it this way, but act like I'm unfamiliar with Linux.... | 10:38 |
| linksword2 | It has been a long time. | 10:38 |
| lordievader | linksword2: Where did you run the apt(-get) commands? | 10:39 |
| linksword2 | Konsole. | 10:39 |
| linksword2 | I remembered a few things, but it did take me a while. | 10:39 |
| linksword2 | What's the syntax for kbuildsyscoca5 in Konsole? | 10:40 |
| lordievader | linksword2: Exactly, run the command there ;) | 10:40 |
| lordievader | Just type it in and hit enter. | 10:40 |
| linksword2 | It is telling me that it is not found. | 10:41 |
| linksword2 | No command 'kbuildsyscoca5' found, did you mean: | 10:42 |
| linksword2 | Command 'kbuildsycoca5' from package 'libkf5service-bin' (universe) | 10:42 |
| linksword2 | kbuildsyscoca5: command not found | 10:42 |
| lordievader | Oh, perhaps Kubuntu has renamed it to 'kbuildsycoca' | 10:42 |
| lordievader | Just let your shell autocomplete it. | 10:43 |
| linksword2 | Another error. | 10:43 |
| linksword2 | No command 'kbuildsycoca' found, did you mean: | 10:43 |
| linksword2 | Command 'kbuildsycoca4' from package 'kdelibs-bin' (universe) | 10:43 |
| linksword2 | Command 'kbuildsycoca5' from package 'libkf5service-bin' (universe) | 10:43 |
| linksword2 | kbuildsycoca: command not found | 10:43 |
| lordievader | Hmm, then I don't knwo | 10:44 |
| lordievader | know* | 10:44 |
| linksword2 | Could it be that there are files missing from my install? If so, how do I fix them? | 10:44 |
| lordievader | No, rather that I dont know how Kubuntu does things anymore. | 10:46 |
| linksword2 | Oh, great... | 10:47 |
| lordievader | linksword2: Reboot might help... | 10:48 |
| chr1s | try kbuildsycoca5 | 10:48 |
| chr1s | (without the s in sys) | 10:48 |
| lordievader | Oh, typo? | 10:48 |
| chr1s | i think so | 10:48 |
| linksword2 | It worked! Thanks, chr1s! | 10:48 |
| chr1s | welcome | 10:48 |
| lordievader | Luckily we have autocomplete :) | 10:49 |
| linksword2 | Uh-oh. Not another error.... -_- | 10:49 |
| linksword2 | Menu "applications-kmenuedit.menu" not found. | 10:49 |
| linksword2 | I'm going to try a reboot. | 10:51 |
| linksword2 | exit | 10:51 |
| linksword2 | Wrong button. | 10:51 |
| lordievader | Got the same error here... | 10:52 |
| linuxmonkey123 | hi i have been running kubuntu 14.04 for a year or two now. No problem what so ever. Last night i was drunk and when i was typing in an email in my browser i might have accidently hit a key combination which messed up my dekstop. Everything seems 10% (or so). So my desktop image doesnt fit anymore and i have to scroll to see the whole picture. Also | 11:26 |
| linuxmonkey123 | all fonts look really bad. I have tried rebooting but no effect. I can see the effect happening when i login into kde. And the 5 icons appear on after the other. After the first it looks good, but then suddenly everything gets bigger and uglier. Anybody any idea to fix this? | 11:26 |
| linuxmonkey123 | 10% larger i mean | 11:26 |
| linuxmonkey123 | if i log into the guest account. everything is fine again. so it must be stored somewhere in a local setting for my username | 11:28 |
| linksword2 | lordievader: I'm attempting to launch the Steam program, but it stops loading. It's like it has crashed. | 11:29 |
| linksword2 | I can't get Steam to work. Can anyone help? | 11:34 |
| cojack | guys | 11:50 |
| cojack | where is ksnapshot in 16.10? | 11:50 |
| chr1s | linuxmonkey123: try Meta + 0 (Windows key + zero) | 12:14 |
| BluesKaj | Hey folks | 12:14 |
| chr1s | hi BluesKaj | 12:15 |
| BluesKaj | hi chr1s | 12:15 |
| * BluesKaj goes for more coffee | 12:30 | |
| lordievader | cojack: It is replaced by spectacle. | 12:32 |
| cojack | uhm | 12:32 |
| cojack | an Spectacle should be binded to PrtScn button by default? | 12:33 |
| cojack | then after update from 16.04 to 16.10 those settings doesn't get updated | 12:35 |
| cojack | I had KSnapshot set as program to run after Print is triggered | 12:36 |
| cryham | tried also with fixed vdi size, still same | 14:50 |
| cryham | i have another problem | 14:51 |
| cryham | most applications dont receive mouse wheel move when mouse is moving | 14:51 |
| cryham | why on earth is it so? does anybody know how to fix this | 14:52 |
| cojack | cryham: what mouse do you have? | 14:52 |
| cryham | doesnt matter, logitech g5, had razer diamondback earlier, was the same | 14:52 |
| cryham | i'm on virtualbox but i think i had this too on normal install | 14:53 |
| cojack | "but i think i had this too on normal install" don't think, test it | 14:54 |
| cryham | lost hdd, i cant now | 14:54 |
| cryham | i'm pretty sure | 14:54 |
| cojack | so I don't think it's a kde or even linux problem that your mouse doesn't work over virtualbox | 14:54 |
| cryham | hmm | 14:55 |
| cojack | what's your master system? | 14:55 |
| cryham | win7 64bit | 14:55 |
| cojack | maybe there is smth wrong with drivers for virtualbox etc... | 14:55 |
| cryham | ah and what's worse | 14:56 |
| cojack | anyway, posting that your problems on kubuntu when you're using windows via virtualbox, seems legit | 14:56 |
| cryham | it does work e.g. in double commander | 14:56 |
| cryham | but doesn't in qt-creator | 14:56 |
| * cojack out | 14:56 | |
| cryham | works in firefox too | 14:56 |
| d9500 | i was wondering if plasma 5.7 packages were ever going to make it into the kubuntu backports ppa on launchpad? | 15:18 |
| acheronuk | d9500: 5.7 is unlikely, as we are currently testing plasma 5.8 backports instead | 15:21 |
| d9500 | the overwhelming majority of the packages are version 5.6.5 from june 29 | 15:21 |
| d9500 | and those will move straight to the ppa after they move out of landing? | 15:21 |
| d9500 | or staging, whichever the term is? | 15:21 |

| yocs0000 | 16.10 64 bit here .... newly istalled laptop cannot resolve the other machines on the subnet .... not even the printers | 20:13 |
| yocs0000 | so you haev to put the printer IP addresses in by hand | 20:13 |
| yocs0000 | any clue? | 20:14 |
| DarinMiller | yocs0000: Does your router have DNS capability? | 20:15 |
| DarinMiller | yocs0000: Not DNS, but DHCP.... | 20:16 |
| BluesKaj | Trioxin, which app do you want to autostart ? | 20:16 |
| yocs0000 | DarinMiller: yes | 20:17 |
| DarinMiller | yocs0000: Assuming the router is DHCP capable, enable it and ensure to enter a Domain Name in the corresponding field, otherwise DHCP will not work. | 20:18 |
| yocs0000 | DarinMiller: yes have default as domain name | 20:19 |
| yocs0000 | DarinMiller: the printer IP address <> name is even reserved | 20:20 |
| BluesKaj | Trioxin, you can add an application to autostart at login in system settings>startup&shutdown>autostart>add program | 20:21 |
| DarinMiller | yocs0000: run: nmcli dev show <router_ID> | 20:23 |
| DarinMiller | yocs0000: if need to find your router ID, run ifconfig | 20:23 |
| DarinMiller | yocs0000: sorry, not router ID, your network card ID ... | 20:24 |
| DarinMiller | yocs0000: i.e. nmcli dev show wlp3s0 | 20:24 |
| DarinMiller | yocs0000: if you run nmcli dev show wlp3s0 | grep DOMAIN | 20:25 |
| DarinMiller | yocs0000: you should see Default as the Domain name. | 20:26 |
| yocs0000 | DarinMiller: mmmm .... I know my router IP and ID | 20:26 |
| yocs0000 | DarinMiller: do you mean my network card or the printer network card? | 20:27 |
| yocs0000 | DarinMiller: I do see default as the domain name | 20:28 |
| DarinMiller | yocs0000: the network device inside the PC that is connected to the router. | 20:29 |
| yocs0000 | DarinMiller: yes .... I have MAC address, IP, domain, hostname .... | 20:30 |
| DarinMiller | yocs0000: i.e. if your PC connection is wireless, the card name usually begins with "wl" | 20:30 |
| yocs0000 | DarinMiller: my card is wlp2s0 | 20:32 |
| yocs0000 | DarinMiller: I am not sure where we are going with this .... | 20:32 |
| DarinMiller | yocs0000: run: nmcli dev show wlp2s0 | 20:34 |
| yocs0000 | DarinMiller: yes .... I know already done | 20:34 |
| DarinMiller | yocs0000: but you did not see a line that looks something like: IP4.DOMAIN[1]: Default | 20:35 |
| yocs0000 | DarinMiller: yes, I saw that | 20:35 |
| DarinMiller | yocs0000: sorry for the delay 2 conversations on 2 different channels.... | 20:37 |
| yocs0000 | DarinMiller: :) | 20:38 |
| yocs0000 | DarinMiller: do not worry, I have solved, bu with a solution I really do no like. | 20:38 |
| DarinMiller | yocs0000: So if you try to ping one of your other PC's, you cannot use the hostname of the other PC? | 20:39 |
| yocs0000 | DarinMiller: you have to usethe IP address | 20:40 |
| DarinMiller | Try changing the router DHCP name to something other than default. Save router changes, reconnect the PC's on the network. That's all I had to do to enable hostname resolution on my home network. | 20:43 |
| DarinMiller | yocs0000: to reconnect the PC's: nmcli -p con up "your SSID" ifname "adapter_name" | 20:44 |
| DarinMiller | yocs0000: the above command will also fixed a network card the fails to connect after resuming from sleep. | 20:45 |
| yocs0000 | DarinMiller: it is already connected | 20:45 |
| DarinMiller | yocs0000: Did you update your DHCP name to something other than Default? | 20:53 |
| yocs0000 | DarinMiller: nope .... it is a small subnet | 20:59 |
| yocs0000 | DarinMiller: thanks a lot, have a nice evening! We will meet again I am sure. | 21:03 |
| DarinMiller | yocs0000: I am hoping that by changing your DCHP name in your router settings, that it act correctly as a DCHP server and resolve IP's by hostname. | 21:03 |
| DarinMiller | yocs0000: np, good luck | 21:03 |
| yocs0000 | DarinMiller: thanks! I have fixed the IP to MAC relationship, thta is good solution at the moment .... of course not perfect! Have a good evening and thanks again! | 21:05 |
