schnoodlesHey guys. Can anyone give me any insight into Konsole and fonts. I just cannot seem to get any new fonts working into it. I copied the new "OverpasS" fonts into ~/.fonts/ then ran fc-cache -f and closed Konsole. Reopened and they did not appear. Not sure if they read fonts from a different directory or has some strict guidelines.00:10
schnoodlesNone of the NerdFonts I installed appear either even though they all appear under Personal Fonts in FontManager.00:11
valoriehmmm00:17
valoriesounds like maybe a #kde-devel question, schnoodles00:17
valoriesounds like a bug to me, but I don't know if it is looking in ~/.fonts or not00:18
Unit193Does konsole run in daemon mode?00:19
schnoodlesThanks valorie00:20
valoriedunno, Unit193 -- how would I find out?00:21
valoriein general, it must be invoked00:21
Unit193valorie: Looking at the cmdline options, or cheap test is to close them all out, then open one and check the start time of konsole.00:22
valoriehttps://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=227&t=29178 shows them00:26
valoriehmm, seems more more complete and complicated now, in the real, new konsole00:28
valorieI don't know how to judge whether or not it can be run as a daemon00:29
hggdhUnit193: only one I know that has a "daemon" mode is quake00:32
Unit193hggdh: xfce4-terminal kind of has a 'server' mode, though that quits with the last terminal.00:33
deenokubuntu turns my laptop pad on when it hibernates. I must reboot or shut it off00:38
valoriedeeno: that's really odd00:41
valoriecan you do anything about it in systemsettings?00:42
deenoIt disables when mouse is plugged in?00:42
deenoumplug and plug in mouse. simple. it is still a bug00:42
deenoI fixed it by repluging the usb mouse.00:43
deenomaybe its the Dell hell hardware.00:43

sintreok done lost my mind with this installer with my new laptop lol03:17
sintrenew dell 3558 , trying to install lts or new version is a nightmare as installer keeps trying to i guess register and failing to do so to the new boot code thing03:18
sintrenot to mention crashing half the time03:19
sintreset it to legacy then somehow isntaller sets it to boot from the other boot method , but fails03:19
sintrethen i turn it back and prey it works03:19
sintredoes same with lts version , i give up at this point , makes no sense as installer for regular ubuntu works fine doing this03:20
sintreso any people in the "development" circles in here maybe somebody aught to look at this lil problem03:20
sintrealso , can only install sucessfu;ly like this if i use entire disc , cannot have unique partions03:21
sintreplus thats still legacy unsecured boot03:22
sintreUEFI specifically03:23

lenswipeeafter installing nvidia 304 driver (recommended) over builtin noveau driver i'm getting login issues. it keeps reloading the login screen (endless login) after entering my password. help06:42
hateballlenswipee: What version of Kubuntu?06:48
lenswipeehateball, the latest version06:48
hateballAnd what nvidia chipset06:48
lenswipeehateball, Geforce Go 740006:48
hateballlenswipee: Alright, just checking if 304 was indeed the latest supported driver. It is old.06:51
hateballlenswipee: Can you read ~/.Xsession-errors and see anything of interest?06:51
lenswipeehateball, yes it's old06:51
hateballugh, ~/.xsession-errors06:52
hateballlenswipee: and make sure that you are the owner of ~/.Xauthority06:52
lenswipeehateball, i've reverted back to noveau driver in order to get back on here. will the error logs still be useful?06:52
hateballlenswipee: it should save info for a while06:53
hateball!paste06:53

lenswipeeok06:53
hateballlenswipee: any reason for wanting to use nvidia driver? on such an old chipset I'd think nouveau would be up to snuff06:54
lenswipeehateball, it's not. it's quite limiting and slow. when i update the driver in the gui it's instantly seems faster. after rebooting i get the strange endless login issues.06:55
lenswipeehateball, what to type to get to .xsession-errors?06:58
hateballlenswipee: Not sure why it would seem faster by updating the driver, as it gets reloaded on reboot and not at once07:04
hateballlenswipee: "cat ~/.xsession-errors"07:05
hateballor if you install pastebinit you can just pastebinit $file at once07:05

yocs0000It is detected and correct specifications recognised but nothing show on monitor .... anyone with similar problem?10:21
yocs0000kubuntu 16.10 64 bit nvidia 367 drivers on GT840M10:24
hateballyocs0000: are you using nvidia-settings to configure monitors?10:35
lordievaderNot even a mouse?10:35
hateballoh I see they are crossposting10:38
yocs0000hateball: have the same issue with kubuntu 16.10 ....10:41
yocs0000hateball: after the last two updates, beforehand it worked well10:42
hateballyocs0000: if you use the regular monitor config tool, do you see both monitors there, and are you able to rearrange them?10:43
yocs0000hateball: h, by the way! Thanks a lot for the Steam suggestion ..... it works really well.10:43
hateballyocs0000: :)10:43
yocs0000hateball: yes .... but still black ....10:43
hateballyocs0000: can you pastebin the output of "xrandr" ?10:44

yocs0000hateball: what do you think? it seems right ....10:47

ikoniayocs0000: please try to keep it in one channel10:49
ikonianot multiple channels10:49
yocs0000ikonia: yes, I am doing so .... but I have problems with both10:49
ikoniayou're not, - you're posting in here and ubuntu10:50
ikoniaso please, keep it in one channel10:50
yocs0000ikonia: the ubuntu channel actually dropped on me ....10:50
yocs0000ikonia: and again!10:51
hateballyocs0000: And how did you configure this in nvidia-settings? Are things set to mirror or to act as separate screens? Can you printscreen the config?10:51
hateballI am guessing there is a way to pull out the config via cli but I am not on an nvidia machine atm10:51
ikoniahateball: it writes it to xorg-nvidia.conf10:52
ikoniasomething like that10:52
yocs0000hateball: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23587959/10:52
ikoniayocs0000: you can't put an image in a pastebin10:52
hateball!screenshot | yocs000010:52
ubottuyocs0000: Screenshots can be made with the [PrtScr] button. Want to show us a screenshot of your problem? Upload an image to http://imgur.com/ and link the created page here.10:52
yocs0000hateball: I have tried both, and it returns black  both times .... but let's try first as separate screen10:52
hateballyocs0000: and what does "black" mean? Does the screen turn off? Are you able to move the mouse cursor over to that screen?10:53
yocs0000hateball: no, really black .... the mouse goes out of the working screen, and feels the existenc eof the other screen, but acually nothing appears on the other screen.10:54
yocs0000hateball: I am rescanning the ports on the external monitor ....10:55
hateballyocs0000: is this a fresh install, or have you been fiddling with multiple monitors before?10:56
yocs0000hateball: yes, of course, I use hem every day ....10:57
hateballyocs0000: in any case you could try wiping the contents of ~/.local/share/kscreen/10:57
hateballyocs0000: each file represents each monitor and sometimes... things break. Wipe and reboot, reconfigure and hope for the best10:57
hateballlunch beckons10:57
yocs0000hateball: for goodness sake .... the port contact did not work well, it was an hardware problem ....10:58
yocs0000hateball: apologies!10:58
yocs0000hateball: it was strange .... configuration was still the same.10:58

rpgWhen I try to log into my Kubuntu box after recent update, it says "Could not start D-Bus. Can you call qdbus?" in a modal dialog box that does not accept input.17:25
rpgclicking "okay" does nothing. Any suggestions?17:26
rpgI see a launchpad bug about this dating back to 2014.  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kde-workspace/+bug/130480517:27

alkethi, will plasma 5.8 lts come to 16.04 throgh backports ?17:40
marco-parillorpg: I sometimes get that in a VM when the host is heavily loaded. My solution was to simply power-down the VM and re-start it, which always worked for me. I believe valorie got it on real HW.17:40
acheronukalket: yes, via the backports ppa when it's ready. we are testing upgrades at the moment before we release them17:43
alketacheronuk: awesome !17:44
alketany ETA ?17:44
alket+ thanks17:44
acheronukalket: I won't give ETAs, as they come back to bite you quite often. I would hope we will be happy enough to push those to user before Christmas though.17:46
alketacheronuk: fair enough, thanks again17:46
rpgmarco-parillo: thanks. The only suggestion I can see is to try installing qt4-default17:58
rpgother proposed fixes are for people who mistakenly get 32-bit instead of 64-bit qdbus17:59
rpgI've rebooted multiple times, which hasn't fixed it17:59
rpgNope qt4-default didn't fix it, either.17:59
rpgSeems like a really bad bug to be 2 years old.17:59
rpgNot sure what to do beyond scrape the machine and rebuild it with vanilla Ubuntu.18:01
rpgok, found someone who said their .bashrc busted this -- no idea how that could happen.18:17
