[Relic]I can get seperate X screens (one on each monitor) but I can't get each screen to operate independantly and each have essentially a full kubuntu session running at once.  Would changing sddm to lightdm make that possible or is it some other component that is stopping me?01:33
sentre[Relic] just me again wish i could help , i think we're both gonna have to go direxctly to the kde developers thru forums or bug reports or something01:35
sentremy problem isn't fixable either  :(01:35
[Relic]what is yours?01:36
sentregonna wait till 5.8.5 lands on backports01:36
sentrecan't get unified outputs to display in correct resolution for each display01:36
[Relic]I remember that01:36
sentreso if main is 1900/x whatever and notebook is 1333 x what ever one or the othewr is useless01:36
sentreso make using duel monitors freakin useless lol01:37
[Relic]so cloning display on two different resolutions doesn't work well01:37
sentredoesn't work at alol01:38
sentreplus the extended display is freakin anoying01:38
sentreto me atleast01:38
sentrepick one monitor as main , then all window jump and and max on main , but all functions are avaailable tgthe real desktop on secondary?01:39
sentreum who thought that one up :)01:39
sentrenot to mention no capability to project a screen thru wifi01:39
sentrei just think duel support is like back of list atm01:39
sentrenot sure why sinse almost everything short of a pi pc comes with hsmi out now atleast01:40
sentreif they worked on duel monitor config they way the do on windows config , kde would be light years ahead of alot of distros01:41
sentrei mean sizing reshaping affects ect. now windows os :)01:42
sentrenot windows01:42
sentrethe os01:42
jackTrying to update from 16.04 to 16.10 followed instructions from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/YakketyUpgrades/Kubuntu when I go to upgrade it does nothing04:57
jackI enteredsudo do-release-upgrade -m desktop -f DistUpgradeViewKDE04:58
jackI entered sudo do-release-upgrade -m desktop -f DistUpgradeViewKDE manually04:58
jackand got the error FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/usr/share/ubuntu-release-upgrader/fetch-progress.ui'04:58
jackhow can this be fixed?04:58
[Relic]is that the one that needs the ->  This can be fixed by installing the package ubuntu-release-upgrader-qt via Discover/Muon or another package manager.  Or alternatively by installing in Konsole or other terminal application with 'sudo apt install ubuntu-release-upgrader-qt'.05:04
[Relic]jack, if you don't have that package installed like it says on that page it can prevent the upgrade05:05

user|86137hello.21:49
stavHi ! Anyone there?21:49
=== stav is now known as nuxmuncher
nuxmuncherHlloooo?21:49
user|86137Yes, hello.21:49
NytramI am, but I'm probably not going to be of much help. ;)21:49
user|86137Is there someone who would able to help<21:50
NytramYou need to ask the question first.21:50
user|86137With Kubuntu 16.04 LTS21:50
user|86137boots only to tty21:50
user|86137not loading the KDE plasma gui21:51
nuxmunchergetting an error message with ubuntu lo memory in root filesystem... happens after running bleachbit... can someone here assist?21:51
nuxmuncherspecifically: "the-volume-filesystem-root-has-only-0-bytes-disk-space-remaining"21:52
Nytramuser|86137 probably a gfx driver issue.21:53
user|86137no, it worked fine21:55
NytramI have stopped using bleachbit for that exact same reason.21:55
user|86137i upgraded to plasma 5.8 via ppa backports21:55
NytramThere are certain items you can "turn off" to work around the issue but it isn't a fix.21:56
user|86137did not work well, so i downgraded21:56
nuxmuncherso I lets ubuntu run 'free like willy' ?21:56
user|86137and it does not work since21:56
nuxmuncherno maintenance whatsoever21:56
nuxmuncher?21:56
nuxmuncherapt-get clean is enough from time to time?21:56
user|86137what does apt/get clean do21:58
NytramI always use the propriatary nvidia drivers so I'm not sure how well plasma works with the free driver21:58
nuxmuncher... just switched my production box from winbloze to ubuntu (finally) so I'm unfamilar with many 'workings'.. trying to avoid any curveballs in this respect21:58
IrcsomeBot2Maksim Muruev was added by: Maksim Muruev21:58
nuxmunchercan anyone recommend 'best practice' for same?21:58
IrcsomeBot2<Maksim Muruev> Hello, I've got21:59
IrcsomeBot2<Maksim Muruev> problem with sound system21:59
IrcsomeBot2<Maksim Muruev> Basically I have multimedia monitor with HDMI and internal sound card, also BT headphones. And I want flexible and easy way switch between those devices.22:00
NytramWhen I feel I need to run Bleachbit I let it run overnight and simply kill the process in the morning. I always stalls with one minute remaining.22:01
IrcsomeBot2<Maksim Muruev> For now I have my monitor and internal sound card as ONE device?!  Why? In ubuntu HDMI shows as separated. Also sound volume control stop work for 'master'' when I do switch.22:02
nuxmuncher...so bleachbit perpetually broken?22:03
NytramLast I looked it was.22:03
nuxmuncheris there any other way to gage overall box health?22:03
nuxmuncher*automatic* way22:03
NytramI wouldn't want to automatically run something like bleachbit.22:04
nuxmuncher... so just 'shotgun maintenance'  is what you recommend?22:04
NytramSafest way I work is to use one drive or partition to do your work in and purge it periodically.22:05
nuxmuncherfair play... what's best practice for periodic  backup?22:06
nuxmuncher? please splain "purge it"22:06
NytramI run a chron script using rsync22:07
nuxmunchergots 1x ssd drive,  2x hd drive and one external hd drive (archive & backup)22:08
nuxmunchergots virtualbox running a win10 instance on ssd drive (i like it snappy) with loads of ram..22:08
nuxmuncherand I have servers runing on one of the hd drives... so I 'work' on two drives22:09
NytramDon't confuse the linux purge command with what I said. What I meant was to back up important stuff and simply format the partition and start again. If you need deeper deletion I can't help you. ;022:09
nuxmuncher... so chron scripts with rsync for work drives... and deal with any other issues "as they break"... is this normally how ubuntu linux users run?22:13
nuxmunchernothing more proactive?22:13
nuxmuncher...preventative?22:14
NytramDon't judge ubuntu users here and now by the answers you get here and now. I for one am rather drunk, but feeling in a helpful mood. There are many answers to your question, but I for one am not able to help. I trust myself to know when a backup needs to happen and I trust myself not to do anything that requires data to be purged. Sorry.22:18
nuxmunchersorry.. i didn't mean to imply any judgement whatsoever22:23
nuxmunchersincere apologies if that's what it seemed like22:24
nuxmuncherjust trying to determine 'best practice' for maintentance and backup22:25
nuxmunchersincerely sorry if I caused anyone to feel judged or offended22:34
nuxmuncherI guess I'll search elsewhere22:38
nuxmuncherthanks anyway22:38
=== omar__ is now known as omarramo
omarramohey guys22:49
omarramois there a way to disable mouse accel via ui? it only goes down to 0.1 x on my system22:49
NytramCan't you click in the box and manually enter a number? (Sorry, I'm on Mint atm)22:52
omarramoyup but you cant press accept22:53
NytramOh! Let me look22:53
omarramoreally weird, why would they not let you disable mouse accel22:53
NytramNope.. seems to be a KDE thing. 0.1 is the minimum22:55
omarramoNytram: seems like the best you can get via ui is setting the threshhold to 0 which would still be polynomial acceleration23:00
NytramNot that I'd ever need to go there, but yeah, seems you're right.23:03
