| jubo2 | I'm trying to figure out what is causing this Kubuntu 16.10 to occasionally freeze for 5-10 seconds (except the cursor moves with the mouse) and then the system performs the clicks and key punches made during the freeze in a very rapid manner | 05:33 |
| jubo2 | The HW shop guys figured it'd be something with the RAM or disk | 05:34 |
| jubo2 | said they didn't have much experience with Linux | 05:35 |
| [Relic] | does it happen at a specific time or when a specific application is open and running? | 05:35 |
| jubo2 | So I'm thinking intalling stress and trying different parametered runs on it | 05:35 |
| jubo2 | [Relic]: happens seemingly randomly | 05:35 |
| [Relic] | phoronix test suite | 05:36 |
| jubo2 | okk | 05:37 |
| jubo2 | I install that | 05:37 |
| jubo2 | "unable to locate package" | 05:38 |
| jubo2 | I found the download page | 05:39 |
| [Relic] | is it dashed not spaced | 05:39 |
| [Relic] | phoronix-test-suite | 05:39 |
| jubo2 | installer download dialog says 9 extra packages are needed and recommends older versions from "channel" | 05:39 |
| jubo2 | [Relic]: okk | 05:39 |
| [Relic] | ksysguard running somewhere where you can see it when this happens set to show cpu% might be something that narrows it down | 05:42 |
| jubo2 | installed now | 05:42 |
| jubo2 | Warning: Program '/usr/bin/phoronix-test-suite' crashed. | 05:43 |
| jubo2 | uh-oh.. | 05:43 |
| [Relic] | run from konsole | 05:43 |
| [Relic] | there are a whole slew of tests there, but you need to list and then install them before you run them | 05:46 |
| jubo2 | [Relic]: okk.. Instructions please | 05:47 |
| jubo2 | I could just look at their website instead of bothering you for them | 05:47 |
| [Relic] | they might have some hints on what might be best for you | 05:48 |
| jubo2 | listing the test-suites seems awfully slow | 05:49 |
| [Relic] | I found it when I added my new vid card so it seemed pretty decent for gfx tests looks like it has a ton of tests to hammer a system with too | 05:49 |
| jubo2 | it prlly compiling the list from some sources | 05:49 |
| jubo2 | the gui keeps on crashing | 05:53 |
| jubo2 | I need to cli it | 05:53 |
| jubo2 | maybe I just start with booting to memtest and run that a few times | 05:53 |

| jubo2 | Yeah.. | 07:56 |
| jubo2 | seems a HW problem | 07:56 |
| jubo2 | run Memtest86+ several times | 07:56 |
| jubo2 | in SMP mode it gets stuck at same exact point in progress with Core #3 state showing waiting | 07:57 |
| jubo2 | so either something wrong with the RAM in bank #0 or core #3 or the membus or I dunno | 07:57 |
| jubo2 | I sent the info I have to the HW shop. Lets see what further action plan they come up with | 07:58 |
| jubo2 | In Safe mode the test passes that part | 07:58 |
| jubo2 | this would indicate it not a RAM problem but more with the memory bus or whatevs we call it | 07:59 |
| jubo2 | Safemode == single core ( I think ) | 07:59 |

| excognac | hi all. I have a wierd connection problem on 16.10 64bit. Sometimes the wifi drops off sometimes the wired. This is my card and driver https://paste.kde.org/pqtqdpipi . any ideas how to fix it? | 13:12 |
| excognac | most things i googled never worked. | 13:13 |
| hateball | excognac: what does "drop off" mean? Do you get a notification you've been disconnected? | 13:14 |
| hateball | excognac: Do you lose LAN connectivity (eg ping your gateway/router) or are you unable to do DNS lookups to Internet? | 13:14 |
| BluesKaj | excognac, if it's with both wifi and ethernet check your router/modem internet connection | 13:18 |
| excognac | hateball: Yes I get this notification and it actually happens as I'm unable to ping. Until now it was constant with wired and it's wifi. Now they swapped: wifi dropped off non-stop (the router is far though, i don't even mind it) but now the wired works as it never did before | 13:20 |
| excognac | *and now it' with wifi | 13:20 |
| hateball | excognac: Like BluesKaj said, if you lose even LAN connectivity to your router... check your router. | 13:22 |
| excognac | BluesKaj: hateball: I'm 100% sure it isn't the router as it works non-stop for others. The problem with LAN is inconsequent: now works perfectly, otherwise it drops of non-stop. I had the same problem on manjaro-kde but I forgot how I fixed it. :/ | 13:24 |
| excognac | off | 13:24 |
| hateball | Afraid I've no advice in particular, ethernet tends to be quite... either it works or it doesnt | 13:27 |
| excognac | hateball: thanks a lot still. | 13:28 |
| BluesKaj | excognac, that's a puzzler alright ...intermittents are always hard to track down | 13:30 |
| excognac | BluesKaj: aye, I know. I'm more than happy to provide any further detail if anything comes on your mind. I think the drivers are correct (see above). The only thing I haven't set back since trying to fix is /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager-intern.state deleted. Everything else is set as default I guess. | 13:33 |
| BluesKaj | excognac, I personally don't use NM on ethernet connections, since the interfaces and resolv.conf files can do the work without any problems with static IP | 13:37 |
| excognac | BluesKaj: I see. Mine is static too. | 13:47 |

| skrite | hello all | 14:23 |
| skrite | i've a question for all. I wish to rip audio cds to wav files and then stitch the wave files together, then encode the resulting large wav file to mp3. what software would be best for this? | 14:40 |
| hateball | skrite: I think you can do CD ripping in k3b | 14:45 |
| hateball | I havent had an optical drive for quite some time so I don't really know many options | 14:46 |
| hateball | You can use audacity to stitch/compress if that cant be done in k3b itself | 14:46 |
| skrite | thanks, hateball! | 14:50 |
| teisei | Hello everyone! Does anyone have a clue of when guest account login will be available in SDDM? | 14:52 |
| BluesKaj | teisei, it's available in system settings>acount destils>user manager>new user | 14:54 |
| marco-parillo | That was the biggest regression when Kubuntu downgraded from LightDM. | 14:54 |
| BluesKaj | once you logout it should be available in the login | 14:55 |
| marco-parillo | BluesKaj: If I am not mistaken, once the new user is created, even as a guest, then it is permanent. LightDM used to mount home under tmp. It was fresh every time. | 14:55 |
| marco-parillo | (for the guest login). | 14:56 |
| BluesKaj | marco-parillo, I see, ..never had any occasion to use thae option | 14:56 |
| marco-parillo | Here is my wishlist (going nowhere): https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=345404 | 15:01 |
| ubottu | KDE bug 345404 in kcm_sddm "SDDM does not present Guest Login" [Wishlist,Unconfirmed] | 15:01 |
| marco-parillo | This is the launchpad bug (not mine, and I am not sure I would call it a dup): https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sddm/+bug/1451822 | 15:02 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1485185 in sddm (Ubuntu) "duplicate for #1451822 sddm doesn't work with passwordless accounts or expired passwords" [High,Confirmed] | 15:02 |
| teisei | Indeed. Creating users has been a workaround for me, but there is convenience in not having to create fresh users every time someone else wants to use your computer (and especially when you are not around) | 15:05 |
| teisei | I wonder if there is a separate issue for guest account functionality which is kind of different from passwordless accounts | 15:08 |
| teisei | Perhaps the term "temporary" should be highlighted | 15:09 |
| marco-parillo | It is on the SDDM to-do list https://github.com/sddm/sddm/wiki/TODO but I do not think it is going anywhere unless somebody contributes it: https://github.com/sddm/sddm/issues/388 | 15:18 |

| hazamonzo | Afternoon folks. Whats the best desktop recording software for Kubuntu these days? | 15:31 |
| teisei | OBS probably | 15:33 |
| * hazamonzo googles | 15:33 | |
| hazamonzo | Hmmm, is this not more broardcasting software insteal of recording software? | 15:33 |
| hazamonzo | *instead | 15:33 |
| teisei | I have used it as a recording software | 15:34 |
| teisei | It also functions as a broadcasting software as the name implies | 15:34 |
| hazamonzo | Understood | 15:34 |
| teisei | This is also, in my opinion, the best free/open software for this purpose on other platforms | 15:35 |
| hazamonzo | Sounds good. I need to record a couple of things for marketing purposes | 15:35 |
| soee | hazamonzo: im using simplescreenrecorder | 15:35 |
| soee | https://launchpad.net/~maarten-baert/+archive/ubuntu/simplescreenrecorder | 15:35 |
| hazamonzo | soee: I'll check that out too. I've used a couple on the past but i can't for the life of me remember what they were called | 15:36 |
| teisei | Simplescreenrecorder works too but OBS is more versatile and less resource hungry in my opinion | 15:36 |
| hazamonzo | Thoughts on RecordMyDesktop ? | 15:36 |
| teisei | I think I tried it at some point but had little success with it | 15:37 |
| hazamonzo | It looks limited in video output / encoding options | 15:37 |
| teisei | I just could not get it up and running properly | 15:38 |
| teisei | OBS worked without hassle | 15:39 |
| teisei | (and still does) | 15:39 |
| hazamonzo | teisei: Is OBS in a third party repo? | 15:40 |
| teisei | $ sudo apt show obs-studio | 15:41 |
| teisei | Maintainer: Ubuntu Developers <ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com> | 15:41 |
| teisei | APT-Sources: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu zesty/universe amd64 Packages | 15:41 |
| hazamonzo | Cheers :) | 15:42 |
| teisei | Enjoy :) | 15:42 |
| hazamonzo | Thanks! :D | 15:42 |
| hazamonzo | oooooo now this looks a little more advanced | 15:44 |
| teisei | It is advanced but the basic functionality is quite simple once you get used to it | 15:45 |
| teisei | Basically you just set the encoding options and then the capture devices (such as your own screen + microphone) | 15:46 |
| hazamonzo | Just looking for the capture devices as we speak since i just recorded a black screen :) | 15:46 |
| teisei | Haha | 15:47 |
| lethu | Gb473133$ | 15:47 |
| lethu | awwww | 15:47 |
| hazamonzo | Whoops! | 15:47 |
| teisei | I only have "Screen Capture (XSHM)" in Sources and everything works fine :) | 15:47 |
| hazamonzo | teisei: Oddly enough im looking through the settings and struggling to find Sources | 15:48 |
| teisei | It should be in the initial (main) UI | 15:49 |
| teisei | Scenes, Sources, Mixer, Scene Transitions etc. | 15:49 |
| hazamonzo | ahhh! | 15:49 |
| hazamonzo | I was in settings | 15:49 |
| teisei | Hehe | 15:49 |
| hazamonzo | Thanks! | 15:50 |
| teisei | No problem :) | 15:50 |
| hazamonzo | teisei: Okay I have something although the quality is pretty poor and blurry. Any hints on decent output / recrding settings? | 15:53 |
| hazamonzo | *recording | 15:53 |
| teisei | Hmm let's see | 15:54 |
| teisei | Encoder x264, Rate Control CBR, Bitrate 2500, CPU usage preset fast, profile high | 15:56 |
| hazamonzo | Okay lets give that a try | 15:56 |
| teisei | In File -> Settings -> Output | 15:56 |
| hazamonzo | Also i noticed that in my video settings the output res is much lower than my base resolution | 15:57 |
| teisei | You can also see Video tab for FPS and resolution as well as downscale filter | 15:57 |
| hazamonzo | That could be the issue maybe? | 15:57 |
| teisei | Hehe that may explain | 15:57 |
| teisei | Just change that for now | 15:57 |
| hazamonzo | okay | 15:57 |
| hazamonzo | One thing though, thats streaming options you mentioned above | 15:57 |
| hazamonzo | Not recording ones | 15:58 |
| hazamonzo | Or oes the streaming options double up for the recording ones | 15:58 |
| teisei | Oh yes sorry about that | 15:58 |
| hazamonzo | *does | 15:58 |
| teisei | I was in the wrong tab | 15:58 |
| hazamonzo | Heheh | 15:58 |
| hazamonzo | Okay the scaling option made a big difference | 15:59 |
| teisei | Container Format mp4, Bitrate 2500, Video Encoder libx265 (could experiment with x265 though at some point), Audio bitrate 160, track 1, Audio Encoder aac | 15:59 |
| teisei | Yeah that usually does | 15:59 |
| hazamonzo | Okay i'll give that a shot also then | 16:00 |
| teisei | Sorry, currently I have libx264 (I had a typo there) | 16:00 |
| hazamonzo | Okay, recording is looking good. How about simple video editing software? Something where I can add in fades, maybe text boxes as layer and static image as frames? | 16:35 |

| viewer|78207 | first time using kubuntu. after install, i'm having trouble getting my computer to detect wifi networks | 19:45 |
| viewer|35984 | Do the computer see any wifi? | 19:46 |
| viewer|78207 | nope | 19:46 |
| viewer|78207 | driver manager doesn't see any updates either. would I need to manually install them? | 19:47 |
| viewer|35984 | Ok. Open a Terminal and do lshw to see what is the exact Wifi xip you have. After that, look at the internet to see if any driver is needed. It happens some time with wifi. | 19:48 |
| viewer|78207 | i'll try that. thanks! | 19:49 |
