user|41884hi, i just installed Kubuntu 11.10. But there is now posibility to update. also not at the terminal. Now i tryed to get the Ubuntu distribution burnt to usb, but also there is no programm working. does anyone here have a clue what to do? Thanks in advance12:57
hateballuser|41884: 11.10 is dead since ages, what is the problem with installing 16.10 or 16.04 ?13:00
hateball"no program working" is not very helpful13:01
hateballTell us exactly what you tried doing13:01
user|41884hi13:01
user|41884i tried to make a bootable stick over "startup Disk creator" then an error occupied.13:03
hateballuser|41884: yes, it is quite unreliable13:06
user|41884i tried also something in the terminal with "sudo dd if=/path to iso  of= path to device.."13:06
hateballuser|41884: dd should work fine13:06
hateballuser|41884: make sure you're dd'ing to the device and not a partition. For instance if the destination thumbdrive is /dev/sdb, make sure you dd to /dev/sdb and *not* /dev/sdb1 or so13:07
user|41884I did that, but i also wrote ; sync in the and13:08
user|41884command not found...if i write with out sync13:09
user|41884sudo dd if=/home/christopher/Dokumente/ubuntu-16.10-desktop-amd64.iso of=/dev/sdb; sync13:11
user|41884that was the exact13:11
IrcsomeBot<weltimeister> @user|41884, Are you sure you want to use Kubuntu 11.10 instead of 16.04 or 16.10?13:11
user|41884no, but there is no update possible even not over the terminal13:12
IrcsomeBot<weltimeister> It is an old unsupported version from 2011.13:14
IrcsomeBot<weltimeister> Please download a new release and try again.13:15
hateballuser|41884: instead of ";sync" you can use "&& sync"13:16
hateballuser|41884: so the string would be "sudo dd if=/home/christopher/Dokumente/ubuntu-16.10-desktop-amd64.iso of=/dev/sdb && sync"13:16
user|41884thank you so far13:18
user|41884at the terminal nothing happens, but i think there will be shown something? when its ready13:20
hateballuser|41884: yes that is normal13:20
hateballuser|41884: if you want to see progress you can use sudo dd status=progress if=/home/christopher/Dokumente/ubuntu-16.10-desktop-amd64.iso of=/dev/sdb"13:21
hateballuser|41884: to speed up operation you can also use bs=8M13:21
hateballsudo dd status=progress bs=8M if=/home/christopher/Dokumente/ubuntu-16.10-desktop-amd64.iso of=/dev/sdb13:22
hateballanyhow, it takes a while to write the image to a thumbdrive, grab a coffee :)13:22
user|41884i did ;) thank you for youre help13:23

syd_Switched to Kubuntu a few days ago - living it!13:46
syd_Anyone here using Kubuntu 16.10 on a Skylake laptop (with an nVidia GPU)?13:50
ikoniasyd_: just ask your qeustion13:53
syd_I just wanted to find out if anyone else experienced any problems with installation. I had a bunch of problems - installation wasn't a straight forward affair, and getting everything working afterwards was a bit of a mystery (although everything is working now). Switchable graphics (I think) was the main problem.13:54
syd_I want to repeat the installation process, just to see if I can. Just wanted to see if anyone else has experienced similar issues, and how they got around them.13:55
ikoniawhy dont you just explain the problems and people can try to help you with them13:57
syd_Skylake is fairly new hardware. The first problem is that if you have the BIOS set to "MSHYBRID" graphics (instead of DISCRETE), when the install completes, the system just locks up.14:02
syd_Setting GRUB option nouveau.modeset=0 seemed to help a bit - enough to do a CTRL + ALT + F1 to jump in to a terminal.14:03
ikoniasyd_: so how do you know that is a skylake problem14:03
syd_I don't. I'm assuming this because I have another laptop (older, 4th gen Intel, only has integrated Intel GPU).14:06
syd_I might buy one of those new Dell Inspiron Kaby Lake laptops (Intel graphics only) and see how it goes.14:06
syd_I had similar problems installing Ubuntu 16.10, but the solution was fairly straight forward: install with BIOS set to DISCRETE graphics, update to kernel 4.9, install nVidia 375.20 driver from ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa. The only remaining problem on Ubuntu at this point was turning off the power to the nVidia chip when in Intel graphics mode.14:08
syd_(which could be achieved by removing all nVidia modules and then: sudo /proc/acpi/bbswitch <<<OFF).14:10
syd_I think what I'll do is attempt a clean install when I get home later on tonight then write up the steps I take (and the issues I encounter).14:11
syd_I think the thing that bothers me is I don't know exactly how I got it working (so if I had to repeat everything, I'd pretty much be guessing).14:12
ikoniasyd_: it sounds a very poor situation to be honest14:12
syd_Well, not exactly - everything is working perfectly now.14:13
syd_When I go in to the BIOS and switch to MSHYBRID graphics, is automatically unloads all the nVidia modules, and power consumption at idle is a mere 11.5Watts (compared to 23W at idle using the nVidia GPU).14:14
syd_I tinker a lot and have a tendency to make my system unusable (i.e. I often find myself re-installing).14:14
syd_Also, installation on my Lenovo ThinkPad T450 was flawless (and very quick - wtihin about 20 minutes).14:18

gvandeweyerHi, I've installed plasma 5.8 through the backport on kubuntu 16.10, and I'm facing some issues. Where/how should I report bugs?16:42
gvandeweyerexample: i lose my default panel. it disappears, while all active windows & keybindings keep working. I can add a new default panel and keep working, but it's a bit annoying :-)16:47
BluesKaj!tor16:50
ubottuTor is a program to route connections through several servers for anonymity. It is in Ubuntu's repositories, but the Tor Project recommends using their Tor packages due to past issues with Ubuntu's. For setup info, see option (2) of https://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en16:50
acheronukgvandeweyer: just trying an upgrade, but if it's not something we can reproduce or identify the thing to do would be to report a bug against the panel component of plasmashell in KDE https://bugs.kde.org/describecomponents.cgi?product=plasmashell16:58
acheronukgvandeweyer: did not lose my default panel here, albeit in a VM17:26

skomorokhFinally upgraded to 16.10 and things went pretty smooth, thanks! Onnnneee thing tho: DNS isn't quite happy. But it's _very_ confusing with network-manager + dnsmasq + resolvconf21:40
skomorokhI can see Internet domains fine but it seems like it's not using my local DNS on my network as my local domains aren't looking up.21:41
skomorokhExcept... they are if I go "host local" or dig or nslookup or anything like that. Gives me the right local IP and I can ping and ssh to it just fine.21:41
skomorokhBut if I go "ping local" I get "Name or service not known"21:41
skomorokh/etc/resolv.conf has 127.0.1.1 as the dns (I assume dnsmasq?) ...and that's what dig says it's using when it successfully gets the right IP.21:42
skomorokhSo where is ping and everything getting its DNS from?21:43
