[00:46] <sintre> well tried everything kde 5.8.4
[00:46] <sintre> still won't carry sound
[00:46] <sintre> thru hdmi
[00:46] <sintre> atleast on my system to my tv
[00:47] <sintre> has option the specifies hdmi in audio panel
[00:47] <sintre> its unmuted  , so scratching head
[00:48] <[Relic]> I only have hdmi to a monitor so can't test that
[00:49] <sintre> hardware works , win junk ten can do it , so some break in the multiple monitors somewhere
[00:50] <[Relic]> so you are getting the video out, but not audio
[00:50] <sintre> yep
[00:50] <sintre> also still impossible to unfifiy out puts at different resolutions
[00:50] <sintre> aka clone screen
[00:50] <sintre> has to be extended for tv to be at proper resolution
[00:51] <[Relic]> I don't want clone screens, I want seperate screens with seperate plasma and sessions, still can't figure out how to do that  :)
[00:52] <[Relic]> cloning a screen to a different resolution would seem a tad odd unless it is a higher res
[00:52] <sintre> yea , tv much higher resolution
[00:52] <sintre> so it defaults to laptop screen resolution
[00:52] <sintre> blur land
[00:53] <[Relic]> do you have a nvidia card?
[00:53] <sintre> i'm on old lappy atm moment so yes here, i'm tinkering with new lappy that uses intel 5500
[00:53] <sintre> itegrated
[00:53] <sintre> integrated sry
[00:54] <[Relic]> just saw a asetting for nvidia digital stereo (hdmi) volume, but my card is really new
[00:54] <sintre> i saw same thing for hmdi and it at full volume no sound coming out
[00:55] <[Relic]> and volume plays normally when using tv
[00:55] <sintre> yep
[00:55] <sintre> and when using win10
[00:55] <sintre> i set up duel boot with kubuntu
[00:55] <sintre> and i dislike win10 , it atleast does this correctly
[00:55] <[Relic]> have you rebooted since you set it up?
[00:55] <sintre> so no hardware issue on lappy's side or tvs
[00:56] <sintre> yes
[00:56] <sintre> first booted with it connected
[00:56] <sintre> tried same result no sound
[00:56] <sintre> then tried attaching hdmi after boot same result
[00:56] <sintre> so basicly i need to find somebody that can verify they get sound thru hdmi
[00:57] <sintre> i even tried a different tv
[01:00] <[Relic]> would the ubuntu sound trouble shooting page be of any help or have you tried that?
[01:00] <sintre> probally not , but tomorrow i'll load up a ubuntu live usb and test that
[01:01] <sintre> so if i get sound that way then er kde /bug issue going
[01:03] <sintre> everything updated of course as well
[01:03] <sintre> my myster conintues :)
[01:04] <[Relic]> I know how that goes  :)
[01:08] <[Relic]> figure with all the searching I have done I should have figured out a solution by now but no such luck
[01:08] <sintre> what are you working on
[01:12] <[Relic]> just trying to get 2 indepedently working screens instead of one big one
[01:13] <sintre> kde seems to have alot of improvement in the duel monitor department
[01:13] <sintre> love it kde , but would wisha lil more time devoted to fixing these issues as almost every system now sold has duel screen support
[01:14] <sintre> hardware wise
[01:15] <[Relic]> it spans 2 monitors nicely, but up to 14.04/14.10, I had 2 monitors running seperate sessions xscreen 0 and 1 each running a xsession and a plasma session of its own.  A single large screen makes me lose a ton of efficiency cause everything is tagged to one virtual desktop rather then 2 indepenent sets of virtual desktops
[01:17] <sintre> i get what you want
[01:18] <sintre> thats far beyond anything i could get , i was just happy to get my tv to run it its native reolution kinda
[01:18] <sintre> in an extended mode
[01:19] <[Relic]> in 14.04 it was run nvidia-settings and save the config, done
[01:44] <sintre> well after what seems like 20 thousand config settign sfigured out my mute problem
[01:45] <sintre> turns out had to put hmdi to out put 5.1 digital surround
[01:45] <sintre> then chnge output method
[01:45] <sintre> now that was a pain lol
[01:46] <sintre> now to get monitors to project in different resolutions
[01:47] <sintre> seems it doesn't want to run in "old hdmi" mode
[02:17] <k4ever07> hi all.  need some help with the kde power manger (powerdevil). it is having some serious trouble waking my laptop up from suspend.
[02:18] <k4ever07> btw, i'm running linux mint 18 kde (kubuntu 16.04)
[02:20] <k4ever07> i know that this problem is kde specific because the xfce4 kde power manager works fine. i have both kde plasma 5.8.4 and xfce4 installed on my laptop.
[02:20] <k4ever07> i know that this problem is kde specific because the xfce4 power manager works fine. i have both kde plasma 5.8.4 and xfce4 installed on my laptop.
[02:21] <k4ever07> is there a way to completely disable kde power management and use the xfce power manager with kde instead?
[03:05] <PerfM> lol
[03:05] <[Relic]> lemurs on ledges?
[03:06] <PerfM> yes pls

[03:57] <SearchMan> Hello!
[03:58] <SearchMan> Please, can anyone tell me if there is a way to search recursively using the Dolphin file manager?
[03:58] <SearchMan> https://askubuntu.com/questions/866021/how-to-search-recursively-in-dolphin-file-manager
[04:15] <[Relic]> always has searched recursively just takes some time to do it
[04:16] <[Relic]> I usually ahve to add "other -> path" to see where stuff is from, but it goes through the directories
[04:18] <[Relic]> are you trying to search hidden directories?
[04:38] <SearchMan> Hello Relic! No, i am not searching any hidden directories. The search though is not moving at all and I have waited for it for so long thinking that it might get something from the other folders. To enforce the test, i have also tried to copy a complete file name from an inner directory to check if it is working. Sadly for some reason, it is not s
[04:38] <SearchMan> earching recursively at all in my case.
[05:17] <[Relic]> looks like it is really screwed up right now
[05:19] <[Relic]> SearchMan, by any chance did you hit Content instead of filename?
[05:39] <SearchMan> Hi Relic, yes i am using the right search settings. I have been having this problem for so long actually until i decided today to search more about it. I have tried several testing sessions in various ways but the recursive search is simply not working. All the other search functionalities are working well though.
[05:47] <SearchMan> Please what is the latest Dolphin version? (I am running version 4:16.04.3-0ubuntu1)
[05:51] <valorie> !info dolphin
[05:51] <valorie> !info dolphin zesty
[05:51] <valorie> SearchMan: you are running the latest release that Kubuntu has
[05:52] <valorie> only neon will have something newer (from git)
[05:54] <SearchMan> Thank you valorie for your clarification and confirmation. I am trying to debug why the recursive searching is not working on my Dolphin file manager. Searching online did not help so far. I was hoping it is a problem with an outdated version of Dolphin.
[06:02] <[Relic]> system settings -> search -> file search is enable search checked there?
[06:05] <sintre> [Relic] not sure if you read the log or not , but fixed the goofy hmdi sound issue
[06:06] <valorie> SearchMan: can you say what you mean by recursive searching?
[06:06] <sintre> i had 7 different hdmi configs
[06:06] <valorie> dolphin always finds what I look for
[06:06] <sintre> only one worked but it finally put sound to tv and muted laptop speakers
[06:06] <valorie> sintre: 7!
[06:06] <sintre> yes its had 2 different config options for hdmi then hdmi 2 , then hdmi 3
[06:07] <sintre> and plain old hdmi
[06:07] <sintre> only one worked
[06:07] <sintre> hdmi 2 digital audio 5.1
[06:07] <sintre> still can't get it to auto detect so have to manually set it for use with tv
[06:07] <sintre> but step closer
[06:07] <sintre> default was hdmi
[06:08] <sintre> analog
[06:08] <[Relic]> :)
[06:08] <sintre> seems kde/kubuntu thru everything it had at it lol
[06:09] <sintre> atleast i can watch strreaming hbo in my living room now :)
[06:10] <SearchMan> [Relic] : Thank you for your comment, yes the file search is already enabled from settings > search > file search.
[06:11] <sintre> valorie> yes sems these option come from whatever device is hooked up , if kubuntu doesn't have a clue the options aren't prsent .Using main old lappy atm and has non of those options listed
[06:11] <SearchMan> valorie : by recursive searching, I mean, the feature of searching recursively in the Dolphin file manager is not working for me.
[06:12] <sintre> unhook tv from new lappy and it doesn't have the extra 6 hdmi options
[06:12] <[Relic]> searches into directories here, but completely ignores hidden directories
[06:13] <sintre> search man what are you looking for?
[06:14] <valorie> can you give an example of what you are searching for, that is not found, and where?
[06:14] <valorie> SearchMan ^^^
[06:17] <SearchMan> sintre : my daily work involves coding and searching through various directories recursively. For testing purposes, I am copying a certain file name from an inner directory then i am trying to search for that file name while being in the parent directory. Selecting the options of "From Here", "File Name" and in the view more, i am selecting the opt
[06:17] <SearchMan> ions of "Any, Anytime, and Any Rating". The end result is always not found.
[06:17] <SearchMan> valorie : thank you for your concern, please check the above lines as an example.
[06:18] <valorie> copying and then immediately searching?
[06:18] <SearchMan> copying the exact file name, yes!
[06:18] <valorie> without time for indexing?
[06:19] <valorie> that's just a guess on my part
[06:20] <SearchMan> what do you mean by indexing? all the other search features are working well. If i select "Everywhere" for example, it is working out but that means it will search all my computer. Do you think i have a problem with indexing the files for searching? is there anything i can check to see if indexing is working out?
[06:21] <SearchMan> by the way, thank you valorie for being here and helping out! greatly appreciated!
[06:21] <valorie> well I know that indexing is not instant
[06:22] <valorie> I'm just saying that you might wait a few minutes (at least) between copying the file, and searching for it
[06:22] <SearchMan> oh, i mean copying the file name not the file itself.
[06:23] <valorie> afaik baloo indexes for Dolphin, and you should be able to check that baloo is running
[06:23] <valorie> control+escape lets you see processes as well as applications running
[06:23] <SearchMan> please, how to check if baloo is running?
[06:23] <sintre> settings ksystem guard
[06:24] <SearchMan> baloo_file_extractor, akonadi_baloo_indexer, and baloo_file are running as processes
[06:24] <valorie> also in the commandline you can `balooctl --help`
[06:24] <valorie> good, so they are running
[06:25] <valorie> they are quick, but not instant
[06:30] <[Relic]> wish the would duct tape kfind into dolphin, that would solve a ton of problems
[06:32] <SearchMan> I wish that too [Relic], i am using kfind right now temporary until i figure this problem out. I have been using Ubuntu and Debian systems for more than 6 years and never had this issue before. Running out of clues!
[06:34] <SearchMan> If someone here with a good reputation or authority around the community, can maybe suggest some improvements to the advanced search functionality of Dolphin. Hopefully in the next versions or updates, the search feature will have much more advanced features.
[06:36] <sintre> chat is logged alot of people in community already here :)
[06:37] <sintre> be not being one of them , but certainly if somebody can reproduce your problem they'll want to fix it
[06:39] <valorie> I suggest you file a bug
[06:39] <valorie> the dolphin devels are not in this channel
[06:39] <valorie> bugs.kde.org
[06:39] <SearchMan> sintre : certain search features in my opinion are important in any file manager. Options like the ones you see in kfind (include subfolders, show hidden files, case sensitive search, use files index and such). At the moment the Dolphin search is very simplistic which is perfect for people who do not search that often :)
[06:41] <[Relic]> I just popped one entry into the forums
[06:41] <sintre> SearchMan I get it but you have alternatives right? Atleast for the moment as valorie said maybe better to go directly to the developers of doplphin and request a desire for a more loaded featured dolphin?
[06:42] <[Relic]> if I have the same luck as I did with gwenview, it should only take about 5 years for a reply
[06:42] <valorie> we always need more devels
[06:43] <[Relic]> like Toby?
[06:44] <valorie> I don't know a Toby
[06:45] <sintre> playing around in dolphin it shows me hidden files with a click
[06:45] <[Relic]> but doesn't search them
[06:45] <sintre> :(
[06:46] <SearchMan> We will manage with kfind for now until the next version of Dolphin comes up! hopefully this problem would solve itself by time.
[06:47] <SearchMan> Thank you [Relic] for posting it around the forum.
[06:47] <SearchMan> yes, it requires some miracles to get replies, let alone actions!
[06:47] <sintre> thank you searchman  would be great upgrade

[06:48] <SearchMan> it is the "odd duck" kind of problem ;)
[06:48] <sintre> that is anooying , i clicked show files and saw them
[06:48] <sintre> then searched for exact file names and nothing even while staring at them in window
[06:48] <sintre> :/
[06:49] <SearchMan> sintre : have you really managed to replicate my case?
[06:49] <sintre> just did
[06:49] <SearchMan> :(
[06:49] <SearchMan> so i am not alone it seems
[06:49] <SearchMan> two odd ducks! :)
[06:49] <sintre> yea its one of those things
[06:49] <sintre> until you need to do something you find the block lol
[06:50] <sintre> kinda like my sound issue i finally figured out a settig issue
[06:50] <[Relic]> time for some sleep, night all :)
[06:50] <sintre> this seems to be a program issue there is not fix unless program changes
[06:50] <sintre> night [relic]
[06:50] <SearchMan> Good night [Relic], thanks for today!
[06:51] <SearchMan> sintre : if you have an account, try to comment or put an upvote on my question at AskUbuntu. Sometimes upvoting a question, helps getting some attention to it.
[06:52] <sintre> i'll try gota busy weekend , also be sure for you to try the chat valorie recomended
[06:53] <SearchMan> sure! Thanks sintre for all your posts and attention today as well :)
[06:53] <SearchMan> wish you a great weekend
[06:53] <valorie> yes, happy new year, everyone
[06:53] <sintre> same have a happy new years

[07:01] <user|94170> Today, i have to problem with my OS kubuntu, is very slowly, I need fix or restore
[07:03] <user|94170> someone know a tool to do that
[07:13] <SearchMan> I have posted a bug report at: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=374318
[07:13] <valorie> user|94170: you might try control+escape and see what is slowing your system
[07:14] <valorie> thank you SearchMan
[07:18] <user|94170> thanks :D
[07:18] <SearchMan> valorie : thanks to you! I hope my bug report is clear enough. I am not an expert at writing or reporting bugs.
[07:20] <valorie> I would mention it in #kde
[07:20] <valorie> get some people who use other distros to test it out
