inrahello everyone, I created a live dvd with brasero, and the dvd creation took ages with the progress bar being very slow. I thought the dvd might be corrupted, so I ended the process. but the dvd booted seemingly successfully to desktop, showing disk-install link. can I safely assume that the dvd is properly created and the OS is healthy?01:15
inrashortly, a live dvd creation process stopped for being very, unusually slow, but the dvd boots and installs. should I assume all is ok?01:15
inrait was stopped after a while way longer than a live dvd creation process01:16
luis_Hello05:06

himcesjfelaborate*05:22
luis_himcesjf: The calendar on the desktop by the clock05:26
luis_I want it to display my google events05:26
luis_himcesjf: I think I found a article on this https://blog.natenom.com/2016/09/how-to-configure-the-clockcalendar-widget-of-kdeplasma-to-display-pim-events/05:32
himcesjfluis_: Oh hey, sorry I got caught up. Have you tried KOrganiser?05:33
himcesjfluis_: I think syncking KOrganiser with Google Calendar and then configuring clock widgets to show events works05:34
luis_Yes, KOrganiser is sync05:34
luis_I just don't know how to show it on the widget05:35
luis_himcesjf:05:35
himcesjfHmm05:36
himcesjfChecking05:36
himcesjfYeah, it changed. I cannot see Show events option. Nor is there any PIM Events plugin in widget05:38
luis_himcesjf: That's not cool. This is so easy on Gnome05:39
luis_Atleast I can see holidays now05:40
luis_lol05:40
himcesjfYeah, you can set Holidays and Timezone with Digital Clock Settings05:41
luis_himcesjf: bummer05:41
himcesjfBut "Show evnts" option is missing. That used to work for me05:41
luis_himcesjf: I don't know what to say. I made the switch from Gnome about 2 weeks ago. I still haven't setup my desktop the way I want.05:43
luis_himcesjf: Can you connect to facebook with the instant message app?05:45
luis_lol05:45

IrcsomeBot1<Maksim Muruev> Hi.. anybody knows how setup multichannel sound output with KDE sound setup ? I'm using HDMI port for sound. and it works, but send only 2 channels.08:41
SmurphyIrcsomeBot1: Tell it to use Passthrough ?08:48
Smurphyworks while watching a movie. Thing is, most audio sources are only stereo. Hence no 5.1 etc.08:49
lordievaderI wonder what 'pactl info' says about it.08:49
IrcsomeBot1<Maksim Muruev> Yes I know it depends from source. But I use movie with multichannel soundtrack. I can see it in VLC. but my HDMI sound device still says '2ch'08:51
Smurphywhat's the capability of your HDMI device? Is it a TV ?08:51
Smurphyandwhich software you use?08:52
IrcsomeBot1<Maksim Muruev> In speakers                [0x5f] FL/FR LFE FC RL/RR RC RLC/RRC08:52
IrcsomeBot1<Maksim Muruev> I'm using VLC player. in sound setting I enabled Dolby multichannel output.08:54
Smurphydid you also chose the correct audio-stream to be played back?08:54
Smurphyin VLC08:54
IrcsomeBot1<Maksim Muruev> Of course08:54
SmurphyThen it should work. Having that kind of setup here too.08:55
IrcsomeBot1<Maksim Muruev> And this is weird why it's not.08:55
SmurphyI howwver left all configuration (audio) in VLC to its defaults.08:56
SmurphyDidn't change anything. Detected it automatically.08:56
IrcsomeBot1<Maksim Muruev> I'm suspecting that because KDE cant understand my hardware setup correctly.08:56
IrcsomeBot1<Maksim Muruev> This is multichanned headphones. they cut between montior, but monitor has only 2 channels support.08:57
IrcsomeBot1<Maksim Muruev> I belive KDE not upldate the setup then I'm usign only headphones08:57
SmurphyDid you connect the HeadSet to the Monitor?08:57
IrcsomeBot1<Maksim Muruev> kinda. itls like laptop->heaphones->monitor08:58
SmurphyUsing HDMI?08:58
IrcsomeBot1<Maksim Muruev> yes08:58
SmurphyThe headphone has a HDMO connector?08:58
IrcsomeBot1<Maksim Muruev> Of course08:58
SmurphyWeird. Never saw that. But Ok.08:59
IrcsomeBot1<Maksim Muruev> Headphones has basestation which actually HDMI switch08:59
SmurphyIMHO the Screen does not forward the audio-data-configuration correctly.08:59
IrcsomeBot1<Maksim Muruev> 4 hdmi inputs and HDMI output08:59
Smurphyor config.08:59
IrcsomeBot1<Maksim Muruev> Yes firstly problem was that ELD was from monitor09:00
IrcsomeBot1<Maksim Muruev> But in base station setup I disable sound passthroug and now I have ELD from base station for sound09:00
IrcsomeBot1<Maksim Muruev> Eveything works but only 2 ch.09:01
IrcsomeBot1<Maksim Muruev> May be only developers can help with this.09:02
IrcsomeBot1<Maksim Muruev> Because I agree this is not regular case. then ELD setup updated 'on_fly'09:02
Smurphyindeed.09:06

himcesjfBluesKaj: I added KDE Neon repo following instructions on this page - https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=309&t=135278 - on my Kubuntu running 16.1013:45
himcesjfBluesKaj: It's returning some issues - http://paste.ubuntu.com/23792242/13:47
himcesjfBluesKaj: and -13:48
himcesjfW: The repository 'http://archive.neon.kde.org/user yakkety Release' does not have a Release file.13:48
himcesjfE: Failed to fetch http://archive.neon.kde.org/user/dists/yakkety/main/binary-i386/Packages  404  Not Found13:48
himcesjfE: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.13:48
BluesKajhimcesjf, that's a normal condition for up to date packages or packages not applicable to you OS version13:51
himcesjfBluesKaj: I removed backports PPA and added neon repo, wondering if that's a good step13:53
BluesKajhimcesjf, I suggest you ask in #kde-neon13:53
BluesKajit's not a good practice to leave ppas active after using them the first time until there are more packages to upgrade during the OSs development13:56
IrcsomeBot1<acheronuk> @himcesjf, Neon does not build packages for Yakkety. And Neon on top of kubuntu is NOT supported14:13
himcesjfacheronuk:  ah, okay14:15
himcesjfacheronuk: So it's better to have only Kubuntu backports14:15
himcesjfacheronuk: Cool, so IrcsomeBot1 is a Telegram bot14:18

IrcsomeBot1<Sanguine> Yes, facing that issue on the lines of polling. Filed bug report but no help15:25
himcesjffrancish: Often times I had to kquitapp5 plasmashell in order to work through GUI15:37
himcesjffrancish: Are you on laptop or dekstop?15:37
himcesjffrancish: Asking because I noticed another weird problem when running on AC on laptop, it lags often on AC. When I unplug the adaptor, it works smoothly on battery15:43
javi_hi, I'm trying to create a telegram online account from system settings but I get an error saying that I need a connection manager named 'morse', how can I install it?15:44
IrcsomeBot1<Maksim Muruev> @francish, since kde 4. Seems like this everlasting problem. Then this bug will disappear then KDE team start Plasma 6 )15:47

momkenHello18:45
momkenIs any maintainer of kubuntu-ppa-backports here?18:46
momkenI want to report a bug in a package in kubuntu backports18:47
sintreis this a problem with some fontas not installing?18:47
momkensintre: Hello18:47
BluesKajmomken, check with #kubuntu-devel18:47
momkenBluesKaj: ok, thanks18:47
sintrei upgraded yesterday and still get this notification once booted that it can't download some font data pack18:47
sintrehoping they'll work it out18:48
BluesKajsintre, ignore that18:48
sintredoesn't give me option18:49
sintresay try again or close18:49
sintreon reboot same msg keeps poping up18:49
momkensintre: Actually kubuntu-backports updates the "PackageKit" package to v1.1.1 which is very good but not enough. The latest version (sept 2016) contains a bug fix for APTcc which makes PackageKit to work more like apt in deb-based distros18:49
BluesKajmomken, if you get a crash/bug then open dolphin>Help>report bug and follow the instructions18:50
momkenCurrently the command "pkcon install texlive" doesn't install all the packages as "apt install texlive" becaues currently pkcon doesn't install recommended packages18:50
momkenBluesKaj: hmm. But I couldn't find PackageKit in the bug-report page18:52
momkenActually packagekit is not part of KDE itself. But its newer version is included in kubuntu-backports18:53
momkenThe version in ubuntu 16.04 repo is too old to be reported18:53
speederso19:17
speederpeople here told me to fix the laptop that suddenly stopped booting by updating Kubuntu19:17
speederbut I can't figure how to do that sources.list file as the EOL page says19:18
speederI went ot the URL, and seemly it doesn't have vivid sources there.19:18
Fritigernspeeder: use a xenial list instead. Vivid is no longer supported. I would suggest this one: https://repogen.simplylinux.ch/txt/xenial/sources_474fe0d6168d1dbe243636db2fc56229576dca27.txt19:46
speeder?19:46
speederFritigern: I thought I was supposed to put on the sources.list the version I already have, no?19:46
FritigernNo, if you want to update to a new version, then you should use the sources.list from the target version so it actually has something to update with19:52
speederhttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades/ <<< then why this page says to use this? deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ CODENAME main restricted universe multiverse19:58
speederif I had to add the current release, it wouldn't be outside "old-releases" by definition?19:58

zeLMGNHey!21:09
zeLMGNWhen ever I boot my USB stick (the latest lts X64 created using Rufus in Iso mode) every thing seems fine until the screen starts Flickering, I try to install the OS,but after a while the Flickering pattern changes to few seconds black, split second on,then the laptop reboots. I'm using a MSI GP722qe laptop.21:09
sintredo you get into a live enviroment?21:10
zeLMGNI can yes.21:11
zeLMGNBut it's only usable for a few minutes21:11
zeLMGNand the screen flickers for some reason21:11
sintreok well , to check stuff off i'd download the iso again , and also use a different usb creator21:12
sintredepending on os unetbootin may help21:12
geniiDisable acpi21:12
zeLMGNLet me grab my laptop and live usb21:12
sintrehttps://unetbootin.github.io/21:13
zeLMGNunetbootin was one of the first thing i tried21:13
zeLMGNbut there was an issue21:13
sintrewhat was that?21:13
zeLMGNi think it wasn't actually copying the files21:13
geniizeLMGN: Try appending acpi=off to the kernel line before it loads and see if any different.21:13
sintreok well first off create new stick , make sure before the stick is msdos  partion table and fat 3221:14
sintreeven though it will isntall info for uefi21:14
zeLMGN@genii is there a file on the root of the disk or is there a folder?21:14
sintrewill boot install needs it to boot21:14
geniiI had another MSI recently with same flickering issue, the acpi=off helped get it going21:14
zeLMGNgenii , is there a file on the disk i need to modify?21:15
sintrebios is where you need to go21:15
zeLMGNmy laptop is set to legacy not uefi.21:16
geniizeLMGN: No, just F6 for "Other Options" and add it to the end21:16
sintrezel>  good when it tries to ask if you want to continue in eufi mode say no then continue on with install21:16
zeLMGNand it's deciding to  boot from the windows partition21:17
sintrei think gennii has better handle on it as i don't have a msi mobo21:17
zeLMGNAh21:17
zeLMGNI pressed F621:17
zeLMGNand a menu has popped up21:17
zeLMGNStart kubuntu check disk test memory and boot from disk21:17
zeLMGNbut in the bottom right21:17
zeLMGNexpert mode21:18
zeLMGNacpi=off noapic nolapic edd=on nodmraid nomodeset freesoftware only21:18
geniizeLMGN: So acpi=off is already there?21:18
zeLMGNMhmm21:18

zeLMGNI don't  know21:20
sintrewhat config is it running in21:20
zeLMGNI'll boot into windows and it'll tell me21:20
sintreok do that21:20
sintrei came across this before with somebody with an odd ram set up21:20
zeLMGNmy laptop is stock really21:21
zeLMGNi haven't modified it21:21
geniizeLMGN: Might want to also look at https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=228431521:21
geniiSeems that model has some weird issues with Ubuntu, like the SSD and Intel speedStep21:21
zeLMGNIt worked fine with Ubuntu 16.04 LTS21:22
sintreok so you want the 16.1021:22
zeLMGNIt's a 1 gig stick21:22
sintreok here may be a plan21:22
zeLMGNIt's 1 x 8gb stick**21:22
sintreok here is a plan21:22
sintredo clean install of 160421:23
zeLMGNUbuntu?21:23
sintrethen upgrade to 16.10 once stable21:23
sintrekubuntu21:23
zeLMGNOh21:23
zeLMGNI'm an idiot21:23
sintreisn't that what your here for21:23
zeLMGNWait21:23
zeLMGNYes21:23
zeLMGNI belive I have the latest LTS on my stick21:23
zeLMGN16.1021:24
zeLMGNit says on the disk label21:24
sintreredownload the iso and wipe the stick and start over21:24
sintreuse 16.0421:25
sintrethen once installed we can upgrade the distro from terminal21:25
zeLMGNI have pretty fast internet so it shouldn't take long to download21:25
sintrebest work around i can think of at the moment21:25
zeLMGNAh21:26
zeLMGNDownload complete21:26
sintrewipe the stick and make sure its file table is ms/dos21:27
sintrethen fat 32 partiton21:27
zeLMGNare these settings fine?21:27
zeLMGNhttp://sx.thelmgn.com/2017/01/rufus-2.11_2017-01-13_21-27-35.png21:27
geniiThe images are all hybrid now, you can just use dd to usb21:27
sintrethtd 16.10 again21:28
sintrethats21:28
sintrein your picture21:28
zeLMGNI haven't wiped the disk yet21:28
zeLMGNThat's just the device label21:28
zeLMGNYeah21:29
zeLMGNI gave it the LTS iso and it changed the label to Kubuntu 16.04.1 LTS amd6421:29
sintrek go ahead21:29
sintreshouldn't take long21:29
zeLMGNDD or ISO?21:29
sintreyour choice21:30
zeLMGNlet me get my lapto charger21:30
zeLMGNIt recommends ISO so I'll use that21:30
sintreyes21:30
sintremight as well use your program21:30
sintregennii was just mentioning you can copy directly froma  terminal window if you want21:30
zeLMGNI'm on Windows so that's not a possibility21:31
sintreyea np21:31
geniiThere's Windows equivelents of dd21:31
zeLMGNEh. I like rufus. It's quite fast and easy21:31
sintrewell lets see if this 1604 is stable21:32
geniiIt used to be because the images were iso9660 only they needed special conversion magic to put on usb, but thats not the case since about 14.0421:33
zeLMGNOh like the imgs?21:33
zeLMGNI'm sorry if that sounds dumb.21:34
sintreno apology needd21:34
sintrewe want to see you up and running :)21:34
zeLMGN:)21:34
zeLMGNUSB Stick done21:35
sintrek lets try this one out21:36
zeLMGNAs I was taking the USB stick out I accedentally pressed the power button on my desktop21:37
zeLMGNI'm at the deskto21:37
zeLMGNp21:37
sintrewb21:37
zeLMGNNo flickering!21:37
zeLMGNHuzzah!21:37
sintreok good21:37
sintrenow lets install21:38
sintrebtw do you want a duel boot21:38
zeLMGNMhmm21:38
zeLMGNI21:38
sintreor kubuntu only21:38
zeLMGNMy disk has been partitioned with my 750GB Windows partition21:38
zeLMGNand a 250gb blank partition21:38
sintreok then you go space cleared up21:39
zeLMGNShould I click download updates while installing?21:39
sintrei would decide partitoon space21:39
sintreno21:39
sintrejust click third party extras21:39
sintrewe'll do update after21:39
zeLMGNAnd it's got the blue/orange spinny thing21:40
sintrehmm , been a week sinse i went thru an install21:40
sintrehope that aint bad lol21:40
zeLMGNManual?21:40
zeLMGNfor the install type21:40
sintrek hold up21:41
sintreso do you want the 250 for kubuntu and leave 750 for windows?21:41
zeLMGNMhmm21:41
sintreis so let it auto magic and install side by side21:41
sintreor you gotta figure out what type of partion scheme you want21:41
zeLMGNThe 250gb parition is already formatted to ext 3 or 4 i belive21:42
sintreyou can change it later with some aprtioning tools but often easier up front21:42
sintreok if not sure , use kde partion magic21:42
sintrei mean kdge partion program21:42
sintrebla , and make sure its ext421:42
sintreinstaler should do this by itself , but i had some odd snauooes with it messing up21:43
sintreprobally my hardware but just to be safe21:43
sintreactually i would delete that partion entirely21:43
sintreleaving it unallocated seems to work just as well21:44
zeLMGNGimme a moment21:45
zeLMGNI got a screenshot21:46
zeLMGNhttps://imgur.com/tEA7xOG21:46
sintreguided use free space21:46
zeLMGNhttps://imgur.com/V7gEUG221:48
zeLMGNthat's my partition thingy21:48
sintrepull the trigger21:48
sintreplenty of space for both :)21:48
zeLMGNWait21:48
zeLMGNHow do I trash the Ubuntu21:49
zeLMGNIt want's to keep both21:49
zeLMGNand the ubuntu install is kinda broken21:49
sintredelete that partion it was on as well21:49
zeLMGNSo I have 250gb of blank unformatted space21:49
sintrethis might not work exactly , but best thing i can think of21:50
zeLMGNHuh? I clicked trash in Manual21:50
zeLMGNand it canceled it21:50
sintrehmm probally because its using its swap file21:50
sintreso you had ubuntu on here duel before?21:51
zeLMGNShould I delete it using the partition manager?21:51
zeLMGNI did.21:51
zeLMGNBut I installed Windows which disabled booting to ubuntu21:51
sintreok if the partion is gone we can cross are fingers that the installer will over write its mbr21:51
sintreif not and you want duel boot you might need to prepare for a win instlall as well21:52
zeLMGNI deleted the partition in the KDE Partition Manager21:52
zeLMGNI don't care.21:52
zeLMGNIt's a pretty much clean Windows install21:52
zeLMGNall there is on it is some apps that I installed using Ninite21:52
sintrewell win normally needs to come before ubunut/kubuntu for duel boot to work21:53
zeLMGNNow21:53
sintreas win10 take over the eufi or mbr21:53
zeLMGNI can only wipe the disk.21:53
zeLMGNIt's Windows 8.121:53
sintrei'd just proceed with install if all that space if unallocated21:53
zeLMGNI only have the option to wipe the disk and manual now21:53
sintrewlel if you don't care i'd say fk it and wipe it21:53
sintrebut thats me21:54
zeLMGNI still want to keep Windows.21:54
sintreok back out of installer for a second21:54
sintreif you can throw up a screen of your partion using kde manager21:55
sintrewould be helpfull as it is now21:55
zeLMGNhttps://imgur.com/qv3RnpM21:56
sintrerestart installer and see if it forces you to wipe or manual again21:57
zeLMGNOnly wipe and manual21:58
sintrehttp://askubuntu.com/questions/343268/how-to-use-manual-partitioning-during-installation21:58
zeLMGNShould I just create a 250gb partition from the blank space21:59
zeLMGNFormat it as EXT421:59
zeLMGNand mount it as /?21:59
sintresee if that works21:59
sintreyea turn it into ext422:00
sintreand restart installer22:00
zeLMGNI did it in manual installer mode22:00
sintreok22:00
zeLMGNJust click Install22:00
sintreif its going to that partion22:01
zeLMGNit's nagging about Swap.22:01
zeLMGNi don't have 2.3mb of ram22:01
zeLMGNit's gonna be fine22:01
zeLMGNnow it's asking if i'm sure22:01
zeLMGNNow it's asking where i am22:01
sintreup to you :)22:01
sintreok its running22:01
zeLMGNand it's copying22:01
sintrejust follow steps22:02
sintrethank god that worked22:02
zeLMGNUk please22:02
sintrehopefully this is hardest part22:02
zeLMGNUK keyboard please22:02
zeLMGNthanks22:02
sintrebut once in installed we gotta cross our fingers it write to bootloader coreectly22:02
sintreso you can duel boot22:02
zeLMGNI've done the setup username/password thing22:02
zeLMGNand it's almost done22:02
zeLMGNthis is why you use USB 3 memory sticks22:03
sintrei got to i love em22:03
zeLMGNoh god it's doing that language pack22:03
zeLMGNI was watching an ubuntu installed22:04
zeLMGNAnd it installed all the language packs22:04
zeLMGNthen uninstalled everyone exept english22:04
sintreas long as you didn't decide to download updates while install you'll be fine22:04
zeLMGNI didn't22:04
sintrei don't think it matters with the space you have22:04
zeLMGNnow it's removing stuff22:05
sintrewhen it done reboot and you should come to a grub loader22:05
sintrethats normal22:05
sintretest and try to boot into windows22:05
sintreit will be an option you have to manuall with arrow key go down to you'll have 10 second sor so22:05
sintreor it should autoboot into kubuntu22:06
zeLMGNIt's done22:07
sintrek reboot22:07
sintreand test windows first22:08
zeLMGNwat22:08
zeLMGNi pressed shutdown22:08
zeLMGNand partition manager popped up22:08
zeLMGNit's shut down now22:08
