Guest60127ok...way outa practice here; anyone home?01:11
DarinMillerGuest60127: What's up?01:20
Guest60127trying to get a laserjet 2100 working, real issue since mobo only had an lpt1 header (no actual port)01:22
Guest60127so I bought 2 add-on cards that are being recognized, but that's it; OS doesn't seem to see the printer beyond the card01:23
DarinMillerDoes the printer showup  when you type lsusb?01:23
Guest60127not a usb printer, parallel port printer01:24
Guest60127i even disabled lpt1 in bios, so now cli doesn't recognize it anymore (good)01:25
DarinMillerGuest60127: hmm, never had to trouble shoot a parallel port printer on linux.01:25
Guest60127exactly, usually they're pretty straight-forward pnp01:25
DarinMillerwhat about: ls /dev/lp*01:26
DarinMilleror cat /proc/ioports | grep parport01:27
Guest60127no matter what I type in for the *, I get no such file or directory01:27
DarinMillersame output on my box, but I don't have a PP printer either....01:28
Guest60127the cat command you just gave me gave me nada01:28
DarinMillerI don't think I would be much help as I don't have similar equip. to help investigage...01:29
Guest60127thanks anyway01:29

jubo2Merry Xmas copyleftists08:19
jubo2Where do I turn off the "lock screen after N minutes inactivity" ?08:20
jubo2It somewhere confusing so I'm not finding it in the System Settings08:20
efeciftciyou may search for "screen locking" in system settings, it will point you to desktop behaviour -> screen locking08:21
jubo2thanks efeciftci!08:21
efeciftciyou're welcome :)08:21
jubo2The 16.04 desktop graphic was much more aesthetic than the 16.10 one.. where can I easily get the old one ?08:23
acheronukjubo2: the wallpaper?08:29
jubo2acheronuk: yeah08:30
acheronukjubo2: there may be somewhere easier, but here for plasma 5.6: https://cgit.kde.org/breeze.git/tree/wallpapers/Next/contents/images?h=Plasma/5.608:37
acheronukand here for 5.5 https://cgit.kde.org/breeze.git/tree/wallpapers/Next/contents/images?h=Plasma/5.508:37

jubo2thanks acheronuk08:59
jubo2my screen resolution matches none of those.. what should I do?09:00
acheronukI would pick the 2 closest and try those with the 'scaled' option set. one of those would be what plasma would pick as a closest match if they were installed natively09:02
jubo2ok.. I try that at some point in time09:07
jubo2Right now waiting for some files to be copied09:07

einszweidreiHello. Is there any way to get KDE 4 in Kubuntu 16.04? :(14:09
BluesKajeinszweidrei, no, but you could install 14.04LTS which is still supported. that will give you KDE414:20

user|73863Hi. Got Kernel panic after last update on kubuntu 16.10 x64. Any suggestions?19:24
user|73863Before it happens only for 4.8 kernel. now it finally got 4.4 kernel19:24
acheronukuser|73863: kernel issues are not really anything to do with kubuntu, or at least we don't look after that. you have a higher probability of getting help on the main ubuntu help channel19:27
user|73863Well problem is that I have ubuntu 16.04 on my work laptop and it still run 4.4 without any problem. So I belive actually something is wrong with kubuntu version.19:29
acheronukkubuntu does not modify the kernel or init system, so it's more likely to be an issue with the hardware on that machine with that kernel version19:31
user|73863No it's not hardware problem. I'm writing int this chat right now from the mashine, but from 4.1 under opensuse.19:49
acheronukuser|73863: different distro patch and build the kernel in different ways, so that indicates not very much20:02
acheronukremains the case that if you have an issue with that ubuntu kernel version, a better bet for help is the main ubuntu channel20:03
user|73863ok thanks20:03
acheronukuser|73863: yeah. not trying to fob you off. just point to where you may have the best chance of help, on what may be a quiet evening on IRC20:04

=== kubuntu is now known as itisme
itismeno luck, is there some way I can use this installer to unlock the harddrives so I can backup a couple things and then I will reinstall, should be faster than trying to figure out exactly how to get this to repair properly21:03
TrioxinI need help. I'm stuck at update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-4.8.0-32-generic anytime I run apt-upgrade or try to remove a kernel21:41

itismethat didn't work either21:42
Trioxinno idea what to do21:42
itismedid anyone asnwer me after my system went weird again?  trying to figure out how to get access to backup some files from the install that goes to a black screen so I can just reinstall and go from there21:45
itismecan't figure out a way of getting rid of or getting the latest nvidia stuff to update the current install that acutally works and doesn't black screen so reinstall seems the best route21:47
