KsChoiceHi there! I have 2 monitors which are guaranteed working because at startup,  I get the decruption screen on both monitors. But then I get the login screen, and one just shuts off, and after login, xrandr says that monitor is disconnected.. Any idea how or why this is? Using nvidia GFX cards using nouveau drivers06:40
valoriewhat version of Kubuntu, KsChoice?06:52
KsChoice*whispers* linux mint 18, but nobody has responded there for days.. Since this is just a brushed up kubuntu, I was hoping to get lucky...06:55
valorieok, we don't support mint06:55
valoriehowever, it's only recent Qt versions that help with multi-monitor06:56
valorieso you might enable backports and see if it helps06:56
KsChoicevalorie: do you happen to have any experience with xrandr?06:56
valorieI don't know mint versions, but backports are available for 16.04 & 16.1006:56
valoriein fact we just announced it on kubuntu.org today06:57
valorieKsChoice: I used to have to use it occasionally06:57
KsChoiceBecause that is where I have some weird output.. I know mint != kubuntu, I would love to use kubuntu (used it for years, and actually you and I have talked before on quite a few occasions) but Kubuntu simply won't work at all on my machines, so I went for mint, which does06:57
valoriebut I use a laptop, and now it "just works"06:57
valorieyou can try a recent live USB, an see....06:57
valorieand06:58
KsChoiceWell06:58
valorieor try it in a VM?06:58
KsChoiceMy laptop broke down (the one where I have used 16.04 for a while until I changed to mint 17 for less problems).. Then I got a new computer and landed myself in the seventh circle of hell.. In the past 4 days I've installed and reinstalled near all versions of Kubuntu and linux mint from the past 18 months... Mint is the only one htat actually works just a little bit06:59
KsChoiceI've reinstalled this computer more than 15 times and I wish I made that up06:59
KsChoiceso I can honestly tell you, 16.10, not going to work :)07:00
KsChoiceas much as I would want to07:00
valoriegeez07:00
valorieas I understand it, mint uses our backports?07:00
KsChoiceYeah, I just checked, I have kubuntu backports already enabled07:01
valorieI mean, clem was having mint users test our backports PPA07:01
KsChoiceso that is not the problem07:01
KsChoiceTo make things weirder07:01
KsChoicelike I said, I did various reinstalls..07:01
valoriethen you should have the newer Qt version07:01
KsChoiceSometimes I reinstall, no dual monitor.. Again, and hey, dual monitor!07:01
KsChoiceThen again, dual monitor, yay! and then.. after 3 reboots it just disappears, never to come back07:01
valoriethat sounds like flaky hardware07:01
KsChoiceYeah, but no, its linux07:02
valoriewell, drivers07:02
KsChoiceAlready ruled that out with different hardware components (4 video cards, tried different combos)07:02
KsChoicehttp://pastebin.com/imhcuZc207:02
valorieI doubt it has anything to do with the kernel07:02
KsChoiceWhen I boot up, I get 2 monitors07:02
KsChoicefor the decryption password screen07:03
KsChoiceThen I continue, login screen, and I only have one monitor07:03
valorieoh that's bizarre07:03
KsChoiceAnd the thing is, I've had 2 monitors there on this install! Just ... I restart and... now I have one07:03
valorieI would ask in #kde07:03
KsChoiceand on that pastebin you can see, xrandr.. just shows card 1 and 3... and no card 2 at all... wut?07:03
valoriealthough this is a bad time of day for that07:03
KsChoiceI guess I'll have to try that, yeah07:03
KsChoiceYeah I know, most US people are alseep now07:04
KsChoiceITs just that I finally finally have this #$!^@!$ thing working07:04
KsChoice4 days07:04
valoriethey might send you to #plasma07:04
KsChoiceI feel like I just cut off my hand after 127 hours lol07:04
valorieKsChoice: it's more that the europeans are not yet up07:04
valoriealso remember it is right before xmas holidays07:04
KsChoiceYeah, tough luck07:06
KsChoiceWon't stop me from trying though :)07:06
KsChoiceWell Merry Christmas already!07:06
valoriethank you, merry Christmas to you as well07:06
jubo2y0!08:37
jubo2What happened to the "Shrink existing (Win10) disk to make space for Kubuntu" in the K16.10 installer?08:37
jubo2/dev/sda1 is NTFS of size 524MB of which is 344MB used08:38
jubo2rest of the 500GB is /dev/sda208:39
jubo2I've never ever before touched a Win10 machine08:39
jubo2does it really reside in that 524GB08:40
jubo2sorry 524MB08:41
jubo2WHAT HAPPENED TO THE SAFE COMFY OLD "Let me shrink an existing (Windows) partition to make space for Kubuntu install."!?!?!?08:42
jubo2I see I can select "Journaling NTFS" for partition type08:44
jubo2So can I make a 150GB NTFS partition and a 15GB root partition and 325GB /home partition and NOT KILL THE WINDOWS10?08:45
=== philippe_ is now known as lemouchon
jubo2And once again.. "Where did the 'let me shrink the other partitions to make space for me'-option go to in the install procedure?08:46
jubo2it seems this is something to do with UEFI instead of Bios compatible thingy08:53
hateballjubo2: iirc windows 10 has some "hybrid sleep" mode so it doesnt properly shut down and mark partitions as available09:11
hateballsomething you can change, somewhere09:12
hateballdunno, dont use windows so09:12
jubo2hateball: there is way to enter conventional BIOS09:15
jubo2but that probably not the right thing to do09:15
jubo2I try this UEFI-route and see if it works09:15
jubo2but right now I gotta pack and get going09:15
jubo2I do have a working (though 3GB RAM) Kubuntu machine with me so I can look up instructions how to SAFELY put Kubuntu on same machine as Windows 1009:16
hateballjubo2: uefi dualboot should work, but I think there is also an issue where windows will overwrite grub stuff or something like that09:21
hateballjubo2: just pulling things from the back of my head that I have seen in #ubuntu09:21
jubo2hateball: okk.. thanks for infos09:22
jubo2I gotta be careful not to mess this up09:22
jubo2I've been doing the normal "USB stick boot-up priority #1"-way for ages09:22
jubo2I dunno this UEFI route but I will investigate when I have time09:23
jubo2c ya09:26

BluesKajfloown, look for splitlossless.tar.gz in your search13:38
=== sebastien is now known as Guest2511
BluesKajardengourlay, I'm not sure what setttings you need as you described, it may be different for macbook pro than my Lenovo13:41
ardengourlay Oh. I just discovered on a macbook you can swipe from the edge of the trackpad so switch desktops. not as smooth as macos but definetely better than nothing13:43
ardengourlay also for some strange reason. a red light is shining out of my headphone jack. For the first time in three years I have seen this13:45

pashkinmvdoes someone know how to create bootable usb from kubunu, (usb-creator-kde fails with error)15:01
oshunluvrHave you tried dd?15:02
pashkinmvwhat is dd?15:02
pashkinmvdd method of copying an iso to a usb?15:03
oshunluvrdd = data duplicator. It allows direct reads/writes of block devices15:04
oshunluvrThe command would be: sudo dd if=/path/to/kubuntu.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=1M15:04
oshunluvrTHis assume /dev/sdb is your USB drive15:04
oshunluvrBe careful using dd - it's also called "data destroyer" No recovery if you mess up. Just make sure you have to /dev/ correct15:05
pashkinmvi'll try, thax15:05
oshunluvrOpen a terminal, plug in thumb drive, then type "dmseg" You should see report of device inserted including /dev/sd*15:06
oshunluvrAlso, you're writing to the entire device ( /dev/sdb not /dev/sdb1) so anything on it will be wiped15:07

mariaI just setup Kubuntu 16.04 on my PC. I wanted to add a user so I went into System Settings/ User Manager, and tried adding a user. I put in the password, and click apply, but the user does not show up. I tried setting up manually in Konsole, and it says that user exists. I tried to delete the user in Konsole, and it says the user does not exist. Any ideas?22:24
mariaI also opened Dolphin, and looked in root/home and only my main account is there.22:25
oshunluvrMaria, opena terminal and type: cat /etc/passwd22:33
oshunluvrlif the last line has your user, it exists22:33
mariaoshunluvr: OK22:33
mariaoshunluvr: https://paste.kde.org/pfn1dq7np22:35
oshunluvrso not there. I think the user manager is broken. Try kuser instead or do it manualy22:38
mariaoshunluvr: I think I see what happened. It actually created a group. I manually deleted it, and was able to create user in Konsole22:39
oshunluvrOk cool. user manager has been off/on workable. kuser is more solid. I use neon now and usermanager works better.22:40
