[00:31] well interesting , got kubuntu updated to new version then dowloaded intels package updater [00:31] keeps getting some error about none certified [00:31] and quits at 90% [00:32] the packager updater for intel graphics is what im refering to from 01.org [00:32] didn't have a problem inside lts one [00:42] i mean in long term support release lol that looks confusing last sentence [01:30] Hi. [01:30] What was the stachexchange - like site, but for ubuntu? [01:33] oh, nvm I found it: http://askubuntu.com/ === dyson is now known as Guest60105 [06:59] hi === jacob_ is now known as Guest50272 [07:35] Morning [08:52] hi, i'm trying to install from kubuntu-16.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso on virtualbox 5.0.20 and i can't press the contuniue button [08:53] on prepare tab, i tried going back and again but didn't help === dyson is now known as Guest50841 [09:12] Greetings, all. [09:14] Been a LONG time since I've been on here. My old Linux PC died. [09:15] How do I authenticate with NickServ? [09:16] linksword2: /msg nickserv help identify [09:16] thanks, lordievader [09:18] And now it says I'm not registered? [09:19] Well... did you? [09:19] Yeah. But it's been a couple years, I suppose? [09:20] Register again? [09:20] Could have been a clean up. [09:21] You'll forgive me if I've forgotten how to register. It's been an eon. [09:22] linksword2: Just ask nickserv for help ;) [09:22] linksword2: /msg nickserv help [09:23] *facepalm.* === deeno is now known as weboh [09:25] linksword2: https://freenode.net/news/services-database-purge [09:25] Linux is generally pretty straightforward, but making a shortcut or link on the desktop is too complicated. How can this be simplified? [09:26] How can this simplified for the user? I needed to be specific [09:27] The user being me who doesn't know how to do it. [09:31] Cool. Looks like it worked. [09:31] Now... [09:31] I'm trying to install Steam (store.steampowered.com) but it's giving me an error 403: Forbidden [09:34] I'd like a little help figuring it out, if anyone is willing? [09:45] I've tried several things, including "sudo apt-get install Steam" and "sudo apt-get install Steampowered" [09:46] linksword2: just went to store.steampowered.com and it loads fine for me [09:46] not sure why you're getting a 403 [09:46] 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. [09:47] clicked it, got a prompt to save or run so it's working fine [09:47] Curious.... [09:47] 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] !info steam [09:47] 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] ^ hence: sudo apt install steam [09:48] nice, if it's in the apt repo then that would be the way i'd install it too .) [09:50] Just copied the sudeo apt install Steam [09:50] It's working, apparently. [09:51] linksword2: Linux is case sensitive ;) Steam != steam. [09:51] Oh, bloody.... [09:55] I'm also familiar with program called KShutdown, but I can't seem to install it. [09:57] !info kshutdown [09:57] Package kshutdown does not exist in yakkety [09:58] Hmm, doesn't seems to be in the ubuntu repo. [09:58] http://kshutdown.sourceforge.net/README.html [09:59] I found it. But I don't know how to get it to install. [09:59] I wouldn't compile it from source... there is a Debian package. I'd just take that one. [10:00] Where? I don't see the Debian package. [10:02] https://packages.debian.org/jessie/kshutdown [10:04] This isn't as simple as it used to be.... [10:04] sudo apt-get install kshutdown was my preferred method. [10:05] It still is... but if the package ain't in the Ubuntu repo.... [10:05] It should be. Doesn't make sense. [10:05] Why should it be? [10:06] 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] Without it in the repo, I don't understand how to install it. [10:07] Like I said, install the Debian package. [10:08] I hate to sound daft, but I need instructions. It's not as easy as sudo apt-get install kshutdown anymore... [10:13] Download the package to somewhere: sudo dpkg -i [10:14] Alright. Standby. [10:24] I'm back. [10:31] Well, now it says it has installed KShutdown, but is not showing up in the app launcher. [10:32] linksword2: Does the command 'kshutdown' exists? [10:34] Apparently it does. Is there a way to tell it to be included in the app launcher list? [10:35] linksword2: Probably after you run 'kbuildsyscoca5' it will be included. [10:36] How do I run that? [10:37] !amarok [10:37] 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] linksword2: In the konsole. [10:38] I hate to say it this way, but act like I'm unfamiliar with Linux.... [10:38] It has been a long time. [10:39] linksword2: Where did you run the apt(-get) commands? [10:39] Konsole. [10:39] I remembered a few things, but it did take me a while. [10:40] What's the syntax for kbuildsyscoca5 in Konsole? [10:40] linksword2: Exactly, run the command there ;) [10:40] Just type it in and hit enter. [10:41] It is telling me that it is not found. [10:42] No command 'kbuildsyscoca5' found, did you mean: [10:42] Command 'kbuildsycoca5' from package 'libkf5service-bin' (universe) [10:42] kbuildsyscoca5: command not found [10:42] Oh, perhaps Kubuntu has renamed it to 'kbuildsycoca' [10:43] Just let your shell autocomplete it. [10:43] Another error. [10:43] No command 'kbuildsycoca' found, did you mean: [10:43] Command 'kbuildsycoca4' from package 'kdelibs-bin' (universe) [10:43] Command 'kbuildsycoca5' from package 'libkf5service-bin' (universe) [10:43] kbuildsycoca: command not found [10:44] Hmm, then I don't knwo [10:44] know* [10:44] Could it be that there are files missing from my install? If so, how do I fix them? [10:46] No, rather that I dont know how Kubuntu does things anymore. [10:47] Oh, great... [10:48] linksword2: Reboot might help... [10:48] try kbuildsycoca5 [10:48] (without the s in sys) [10:48] Oh, typo? [10:48] i think so [10:48] It worked! Thanks, chr1s! [10:48] welcome [10:49] Luckily we have autocomplete :) [10:49] Uh-oh. Not another error.... -_- [10:49] Menu "applications-kmenuedit.menu" not found. [10:51] I'm going to try a reboot. [10:51] exit [10:51] Wrong button. [10:52] Got the same error here... [11:26] 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] 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] 10% larger i mean [11:28] if i log into the guest account. everything is fine again. so it must be stored somewhere in a local setting for my username [11:29] lordievader: I'm attempting to launch the Steam program, but it stops loading. It's like it has crashed. [11:34] I can't get Steam to work. Can anyone help? [11:50] guys [11:50] where is ksnapshot in 16.10? [12:14] linuxmonkey123: try Meta + 0 (Windows key + zero) [12:14] Hey folks [12:15] hi BluesKaj [12:15] hi chr1s [12:30] * BluesKaj goes for more coffee [12:32] cojack: It is replaced by spectacle. [12:32] uhm [12:33] an Spectacle should be binded to PrtScn button by default? [12:35] then after update from 16.04 to 16.10 those settings doesn't get updated [12:36] I had KSnapshot set as program to run after Print is triggered [14:50] tried also with fixed vdi size, still same [14:51] i have another problem [14:51] most applications dont receive mouse wheel move when mouse is moving [14:52] why on earth is it so? does anybody know how to fix this [14:52] cryham: what mouse do you have? [14:52] doesnt matter, logitech g5, had razer diamondback earlier, was the same [14:53] i'm on virtualbox but i think i had this too on normal install [14:54] "but i think i had this too on normal install" don't think, test it [14:54] lost hdd, i cant now [14:54] i'm pretty sure [14:54] so I don't think it's a kde or even linux problem that your mouse doesn't work over virtualbox [14:55] hmm [14:55] what's your master system? [14:55] win7 64bit [14:55] maybe there is smth wrong with drivers for virtualbox etc... [14:56] ah and what's worse [14:56] anyway, posting that your problems on kubuntu when you're using windows via virtualbox, seems legit [14:56] it does work e.g. in double commander [14:56] but doesn't in qt-creator [14:56] * cojack out [14:56] works in firefox too [15:18] i was wondering if plasma 5.7 packages were ever going to make it into the kubuntu backports ppa on launchpad? [15:21] d9500: 5.7 is unlikely, as we are currently testing plasma 5.8 backports instead [15:21] the overwhelming majority of the packages are version 5.6.5 from june 29 [15:21] and those will move straight to the ppa after they move out of landing?

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