Error is "DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN" ..it happens randomly and then the websites go back to working after a few minutes. [04:45] I have tried setting the DNS address to 8.8.8.8,8.8.4.4 in the OS settings and at the router level and the error is still there. [04:47] Google seems to always load but there are paticular domains that it happens to just not sure why it's only those domains. [13:26] Hey folks [13:42] I am having this problem: http://pastebin.com/9Up28Z60 and in Opera Browser too. If there are any updates I should make to the pastebin let me know. === pierre_ is now known as PierreLinux [14:59] any thoughts on my problem? [15:12] R13ose: try creating new user and see if the problem exists on that account to (make sure it has defautl settings) [15:13] than we can be sure it is not your widgets/profile configuration problem [15:13] soee_: this problem doesn't happen all the time so hard to know when this will happen. [15:20] maybe problem with GPU rendering or something [15:20] or see if CPU or RAM usage isn't extra height when it happens [15:21] you can observe them via ksysguard === rudra_ is now known as rudra [15:22] soee_: should I have that open before the problem happens? [15:24] no [15:24] soee_: besides the browsers, plank is also making the icons stick now if I hover over them but goes away if I switch programs. [15:24] i have no experience with plank :) [15:25] not many people do but might be relaed [15:25] related* [15:50] A few months ago I spent a few weeks with Kubuntu 16.04, I can't recall which file system I used. Which file system might it have been? (What was the default for fresh installation of 16.04?) [15:54] I think if you take the defaults, you get EXT4 [15:55] I know I have it. === rafal is now known as perex === wens_ is now known as _Wens_ [17:11] VitorLeSantos was added by: VitorLeSantos [17:15] nice [17:25] hi all is there a way to install kubuntu along side windows 8.1 [17:25] google guides your'll find plenty of them [17:26] i ditched win10 [17:26] with new lappy [17:27] @sintre I tried as given in the online [17:27] http://www.everydaylinuxuser.com/2014/05/install-ubuntu-1404-alongside-windows.html [17:28] i think the trick is to manually create the needed partitions [17:28] seems to be a theme in most guides [17:28] they show that there is an option to select install ubuntu/kubuntu along side windows but I dont even get the option [17:28] instead of trying it let it auto magic it [17:28] I dont understand most of the partition in linux [17:29] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1uVcsFhv2Vo [17:29] see if that video helps a bit [17:29] guys voice is anooying but understandable [17:30] ok i'll try [17:30] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=46FtBpv6Bjk [17:30] less annoying [17:50] mparillo: thanks [18:51] hello is there a way to get something like ubuntu's wallch in kubuntu? [18:55] I would like to get live earth images on desktop [19:03] stop playing dice and say something you gamers! [19:11] Hmmm... got akonadi_davgroupware_resource beiung respawned very 2 seconds, until I got one of these crap drkonqui messages popiing up. [19:11] Anyone got an idea? Saw this? [19:11] Started after I created a new identity in kontact->kmail [19:12] Removing that contact won't help. === lethu_ is now known as lethu === scott_ is now known as propersquid [20:26] I found out what it was. Corrupt local cache (akonadi/database). [20:26] After removing .local/share/akonadi* - and re-creating the configuration/entries in kontact, these messages went away. [21:20] lapti was added by: lapti [21:39] Hows it hanging === syd_ is now known as syddel [22:45] Hello. [22:46] hi [22:47] I have a Skylake laptop with Intel graphics and an nVidia GTX 970m. I'm having trouble installing Kubuntu 16.10 using just the Intel graphics (so the battery will last longer). [22:48] well you have a machine that uses both [22:48] I'd be happy to install without nVidia working (i.e. just using the Intel GPU). [22:48] so uses integrated then switches over for heavier tasks gamign ect.? [22:49] sintre: There's a setting in the BIOS where I can set GPU to either "DISCRETE" or "MSHYBRID". [22:49] above my head , but in general the os most likely won't want to NOT enable a piece of hardware [22:49] that was where was going [22:49] maybe disabling the dedicated gfx , before install might solve the problem [22:49] in bios [22:50] force it to only install intel drivers on install because it can't see it to begin with [22:50] ohh so not setting to disable? [22:51] I have tried that, but then it just freezes when I try to log in. I've tried upgrading the kernel to 4.8.14 and the latest Intel drivers, but nothing seems to work. [22:51] honestly how much extra battery time do you think you'll really get? [22:51] it should even under linux to only use discrete when needed [22:51] I have managed to install everything successfully in Ubuntu 16.10. The difference is 5 hours vs. 1.5 hours. [22:52] ok over my head there [22:52] When I run "powerstat" in Ubuntu 16.10, the difference is 28W vs 10W. [22:52] i would check what drivers and packages ubuntu is using [22:52] then investigate , and honestly i'm an end user myself so this one is over my head [22:52] but 1.5 hours is silly compared to 5 [22:53] lots of people in developer team lurk here , stick around awhile i'm sure they'll help with they come around [22:53] Cool :) [22:53] that makes no sense honestly the gap [22:54] one thing i'd look at in mean time , are other settings different [22:54] like screen brightniess , cpu speed ect. [22:54] btw have you updated your packages for kubuntu ? [22:55] Yes [22:55] hmm well thats the only other thing i can think to do in the mean time [22:56] I think it's just a quirk with this laptop. I've had nothing but heartache and grief dealing with switchable graphics and Linux. I have a Lenovo T450 (which doesn't have discrete graphics), and Kubuntu 16.10 runs beautifully on it. [22:56] There moment there's nVidia and Intel, you're in a world of hurt. [22:56] i've had my own battle with a new dell 3558 nudget notebook [22:56] budget [22:57] finaly figured out half user error half dumb installer lol [22:57] didn't change partition table for new hdd in system [22:57] so never ending problems with installs with dumb new uefi firmare [22:58] then isntalled reg ubuntu , which the grub loader [22:58] somehow either changed the table or forced it to boot [22:58] consufed me even more [22:58] when i tried to go back to 16.04 for more stability as pklasma kept crashing [22:59] wish i could tell ya how to fix it , but if 16.20 is stable anf giving better battery why not just stick with that [22:59] i mean 16.10 [23:00] sry re-read what you said [23:00] Because the laptop runs hot, the fans are spinning most of the time, and I know (deep down inside) that it's not "optimal" (I've had Ubuntu 16.10 to compare it against). Sometimes, when I'm on the road, I appreciate the extra battery life. [23:00] maybe going to lts version might help [23:01] well , you have a unique system and interesting problem , i think with some time lurkin around somebody with more knowledge might be able to help [23:02] maybe the drivers you installed for your dedicated gpu are outdated or not optimized , hopefully you'll get somebody that can help find the answer [23:03] even if they were out the box drivers maybe the problem , i do know kde plsma is being worked on that has alot to do with graphics performance and they're testing it now [23:03] i can't get duel monitors to work myself [23:03] sounds if thats the battery drain your dedicated car isn't shutting off [23:04] so there is kinf the target to figure out [23:05] http://askubuntu.com/questions/641844/how-to-turn-off-nvidia-gpu-in-a-hybrid-graphics-laptop-using-ubuntu-14-04 [23:06] give that a read might help [23:42] I'm not sure if the problem is kwin, plasmashell, the theme or something else, but... I keep getting frozen(???) windows. say, firefox, gkrellm will kind of "freeze", and when you move to another window, these windows will be refreshed.. but then, freeze again. [23:43] and I'm seeing this in 2 different systems, one with kubuntu 16.04, the other one is 16.10, both with more or less with similar theme configs [23:45] I wish I could debug this... I know how to debug simple things, but I have no clue about graphics stuff [23:45] it'd be cool if someone guided me [23:55] also, something similarly weird, but not the same, happens in konsole... I keep getting frozen tabs
