[00:03] Specifically the ones for online accounts which were included in 16.10. [01:15] hello 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] shortly, a live dvd creation process stopped for being very, unusually slow, but the dvd boots and installs. should I assume all is ok? [01:16] it was stopped after a while way longer than a live dvd creation process [05:06] Hello [05:07] Anyone know how to sync Google calendar with the pop calendar [05:07] pop up**? [05:21] pop-up calendar? [05:22] luis_: Please elbaorate [05:22] elaborate* [05:26] himcesjf: The calendar on the desktop by the clock [05:26] I want it to display my google events [05:32] 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/ [05:33] luis_: Oh hey, sorry I got caught up. Have you tried KOrganiser? [05:34] luis_: I think syncking KOrganiser with Google Calendar and then configuring clock widgets to show events works [05:34] Yes, KOrganiser is sync [05:35] I just don't know how to show it on the widget [05:35] himcesjf: [05:36] Hmm [05:36] Checking [05:38] Yeah, it changed. I cannot see Show events option. Nor is there any PIM Events plugin in widget [05:39] himcesjf: That's not cool. This is so easy on Gnome [05:40] Atleast I can see holidays now [05:40] lol [05:41] Yeah, you can set Holidays and Timezone with Digital Clock Settings [05:41] himcesjf: bummer [05:41] But "Show evnts" option is missing. That used to work for me [05:43] 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. [05:45] himcesjf: Can you connect to facebook with the instant message app? [05:45] lol [05:46] So far I can only use it for Hangout === IdleOne is now known as Guest34490 === IdleOne is now known as Guest90420 === claydoh is now known as Guest11644 [08:41] 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. [08:48] IrcsomeBot1: Tell it to use Passthrough ? [08:49] works while watching a movie. Thing is, most audio sources are only stereo. Hence no 5.1 etc. [08:49] I wonder what 'pactl info' says about it. [08:51] 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] what's the capability of your HDMI device? Is it a TV ? [08:52] andwhich software you use? [08:52] In speakers [0x5f] FL/FR LFE FC RL/RR RC RLC/RRC [08:54] I'm using VLC player. in sound setting I enabled Dolby multichannel output. [08:54] did you also chose the correct audio-stream to be played back? [08:54] in VLC [08:54] Of course [08:55] Then it should work. Having that kind of setup here too. [08:55] And this is weird why it's not. [08:56] I howwver left all configuration (audio) in VLC to its defaults. [08:56] Didn't change anything. Detected it automatically. [08:56] I'm suspecting that because KDE cant understand my hardware setup correctly. [08:57] This is multichanned headphones. they cut between montior, but monitor has only 2 channels support. [08:57] I belive KDE not upldate the setup then I'm usign only headphones [08:57] Did you connect the HeadSet to the Monitor? [08:58] kinda. itls like laptop->heaphones->monitor [08:58] Using HDMI? [08:58] yes [08:58] The headphone has a HDMO connector? [08:58] Of course [08:59] Weird. Never saw that. But Ok. [08:59] Headphones has basestation which actually HDMI switch [08:59] IMHO the Screen does not forward the audio-data-configuration correctly. [08:59] 4 hdmi inputs and HDMI output [08:59] or config. [09:00] Yes firstly problem was that ELD was from monitor [09:00] But in base station setup I disable sound passthroug and now I have ELD from base station for sound [09:01] Eveything works but only 2 ch. [09:02] May be only developers can help with this. [09:02] Because I agree this is not regular case. then ELD setup updated 'on_fly' [09:06] indeed. === _xibir is now known as xibir === miguel is now known as Guest69922 [11:27] Morning folks [11:29] Morning === chr1stos is now known as c0dey === c0dey is now known as avos === avos is now known as c0dey === mohammad is now known as Guest48298 [12:53] BluesKaj: You around?

They have been ignored, or old ones used instead. [13:51] himcesjf, that's a normal condition for up to date packages or packages not applicable to you OS version [13:53] BluesKaj: I removed backports PPA and added neon repo, wondering if that's a good step [13:53] himcesjf, I suggest you ask in #kde-neon [13:56] it'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 development [14:13] @himcesjf, Neon does not build packages for Yakkety. And Neon on top of kubuntu is NOT supported [14:15] acheronuk: ah, okay [14:15] acheronuk: So it's better to have only Kubuntu backports [14:18] acheronuk: Cool, so IrcsomeBot1 is a Telegram bot [14:19] Telegram bot that bridges between our telegram chat channel and this IRC one.

When I unplug the adaptor, it works smoothly on battery [15:44] 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? [15:47] @francish, since kde 4. Seems like this everlasting problem.

[18:47] I want to report a bug in a package in kubuntu backports [18:47] is this a problem with some fontas not installing? [18:47] sintre: Hello [18:47] momken, check with #kubuntu-devel [18:47] BluesKaj: ok, thanks [18:47] i upgraded yesterday and still get this notification once booted that it can't download some font data pack [18:48] hoping they'll work it out [18:48] sintre, ignore that [18:49] doesn't give me option [18:49] say try again or close [18:49] on reboot same msg keeps poping up [18:49] sintre: 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 distros [18:50] momken, if you get a crash/bug then open dolphin>Help>report bug and follow the instructions [18:50] Currently the command "pkcon install texlive" doesn't install all the packages as "apt install texlive" becaues currently pkcon doesn't install recommended packages [18:52] BluesKaj: hmm. But I couldn't find PackageKit in the bug-report page [18:53] Actually packagekit is not part of KDE itself. But its newer version is included in kubuntu-backports [18:53] The version in ubuntu 16.04 repo is too old to be reported [19:17] so [19:17] people here told me to fix the laptop that suddenly stopped booting by updating Kubuntu [19:18] but I can't figure how to do that sources.list file as the EOL page says [19:18] I went ot the URL, and seemly it doesn't have vivid sources there. [19:46] speeder: use a xenial list instead. Vivid is no longer supported. I would suggest this one: https://repogen.simplylinux.ch/txt/xenial/sources_474fe0d6168d1dbe243636db2fc56229576dca27.txt [19:46] ? [19:46] Fritigern: I thought I was supposed to put on the sources.list the version I already have, no? [19:52] No, 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 with [19:58] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades/ <<< then why this page says to use this? deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ CODENAME main restricted universe multiverse [19:58] if I had to add the current release, it wouldn't be outside "old-releases" by definition? === paolo_ is now known as faLUCE [21:09] Hey! [21:09] When 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. [21:10] do you get into a live enviroment? [21:11] I can yes. [21:11] But it's only usable for a few minutes [21:11] and the screen flickers for some reason [21:12] ok well , to check stuff off i'd download the iso again , and also use a different usb creator [21:12] depending on os unetbootin may help [21:12] Disable acpi [21:12] Let me grab my laptop and live usb [21:13] https://unetbootin.github.io/ [21:13] unetbootin was one of the first thing i tried [21:13] but there was an issue [21:13] what was that? [21:13] i think it wasn't actually copying the files [21:13] zeLMGN: Try appending acpi=off to the kernel line before it loads and see if any different. [21:14] ok well first off create new stick , make sure before the stick is msdos partion table and fat 32 [21:14] even though it will isntall info for uefi [21:14] @genii is there a file on the root of the disk or is there a folder? [21:14] will boot install needs it to boot [21:14] I had another MSI recently with same flickering issue, the acpi=off helped get it going [21:15] genii , is there a file on the disk i need to modify? [21:15] bios is where you need to go [21:16] my laptop is set to legacy not uefi. [21:16] zeLMGN: No, just F6 for "Other Options" and add it to the end [21:16] zel> good when it tries to ask if you want to continue in eufi mode say no then continue on with install [21:17] and it's deciding to boot from the windows partition [21:17] i think gennii has better handle on it as i don't have a msi mobo [21:17] Ah [21:17] I pressed F6 [21:17] and a menu has popped up [21:17] Start kubuntu check disk test memory and boot from disk [21:17] but in the bottom right [21:18] expert mode [21:18] acpi=off noapic nolapic edd=on nodmraid nomodeset freesoftware only [21:18] zeLMGN: So acpi=off is already there? [21:18] Mhmm [21:18] well hmm [21:19] how much ram doyu have [21:19] you have sry [21:19] 8gb [21:19] ok then amd64 is fine [21:19] hmm again [21:19] two sticks or one? [21:20] I don't know [21:20] what config is it running in [21:20] I'll boot into windows and it'll tell me [21:20] ok do that [21:20] i came across this before with somebody with an odd ram set up [21:21] my laptop is stock really [21:21] i haven't modified it [21:21] zeLMGN: Might want to also look at https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2284315 [21:21] Seems that model has some weird issues with Ubuntu, like the SSD and Intel speedStep [21:22] It worked fine with Ubuntu 16.04 LTS [21:22] ok so you want the 16.10 [21:22] It's a 1 gig stick [21:22] ok here may be a plan [21:22] It's 1 x 8gb stick** [21:22] ok here is a plan [21:23] do clean install of 1604 [21:23] Ubuntu? [21:23] then upgrade to 16.10 once stable [21:23] kubuntu [21:23] Oh [21:23] I'm an idiot [21:23] isn't that what your here for [21:23] Wait [21:23] Yes [21:23] I belive I have the latest LTS on my stick [21:24] 16.10 [21:24] it says on the disk label [21:24] redownload the iso and wipe the stick and start over [21:25] use 16.04 [21:25] then once installed we can upgrade the distro from terminal [21:25] I have pretty fast internet so it shouldn't take long to download [21:25] best work around i can think of at the moment [21:26] Ah [21:26] Download complete [21:27] wipe the stick and make sure its file table is ms/dos [21:27] then fat 32 partiton [21:27] are these settings fine? [21:27] http://sx.thelmgn.com/2017/01/rufus-2.11_2017-01-13_21-27-35.png [21:27] The images are all hybrid now, you can just use dd to usb [21:28] thtd 16.10 again [21:28] thats [21:28] in your picture [21:28] I haven't wiped the disk yet [21:28] That's just the device label [21:29] Yeah [21:29] I gave it the LTS iso and it changed the label to Kubuntu 16.04.1 LTS amd64 [21:29] k go ahead [21:29] shouldn't take long [21:29] DD or ISO? [21:30] your choice [21:30] let me get my lapto charger [21:30] It recommends ISO so I'll use that [21:30] yes [21:30] might as well use your program [21:30] gennii was just mentioning you can copy directly froma terminal window if you want [21:31] I'm on Windows so that's not a possibility [21:31] yea np [21:31] There's Windows equivelents of dd [21:31] Eh. I like rufus. It's quite fast and easy [21:32] well lets see if this 1604 is stable [21:33] It 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 14.04 [21:33] Oh like the imgs? [21:34] I'm sorry if that sounds dumb. [21:34] no apology needd [21:34] we want to see you up and running :) [21:34] :) [21:35] USB Stick done [21:36] k lets try this one out [21:37] As I was taking the USB stick out I accedentally pressed the power button on my desktop [21:37] I'm at the deskto [21:37] p [21:37] wb [21:37] No flickering! [21:37] Huzzah! [21:37] ok good [21:38] now lets install [21:38] btw do you want a duel boot [21:38] Mhmm [21:38] I [21:38] or kubuntu only [21:38] My disk has been partitioned with my 750GB Windows partition [21:38] and a 250gb blank partition [21:39] ok then you go space cleared up [21:39] Should I click download updates while installing? [21:39] i would decide partitoon space [21:39] no [21:39] just click third party extras [21:39] we'll do update after [21:40] And it's got the blue/orange spinny thing [21:40] hmm , been a week sinse i went thru an install [21:40] hope that aint bad lol [21:40] Manual? [21:40] for the install type [21:41] k hold up [21:41] so do you want the 250 for kubuntu and leave 750 for windows? [21:41] Mhmm [21:41] is so let it auto magic and install side by side [21:41] or you gotta figure out what type of partion scheme you want [21:42] The 250gb parition is already formatted to ext 3 or 4 i belive [21:42] you can change it later with some aprtioning tools but often easier up front [21:42] ok if not sure , use kde partion magic [21:42] i mean kdge partion program [21:42] bla , and make sure its ext4 [21:43] instaler should do this by itself , but i had some odd snauooes with it messing up [21:43] probally my hardware but just to be safe [21:43] actually i would delete that partion entirely [21:44] leaving it unallocated seems to work just as well [21:45] Gimme a moment [21:46] I got a screenshot [21:46] https://imgur.com/tEA7xOG [21:46] guided use free space [21:48] https://imgur.com/V7gEUG2 [21:48] that's my partition thingy [21:48] pull the trigger [21:48] plenty of space for both :) [21:48] Wait [21:49] How do I trash the Ubuntu [21:49] It want's to keep both [21:49] and the ubuntu install is kinda broken [21:49] delete that partion it was on as well [21:49] So I have 250gb of blank unformatted space [21:50] this might not work exactly , but best thing i can think of [21:50] Huh? I clicked trash in Manual [21:50] and it canceled it [21:50] hmm probally because its using its swap file [21:51] so you had ubuntu on here duel before? [21:51] Should I delete it using the partition manager? [21:51] I did. [21:51] But I installed Windows which disabled booting to ubuntu [21:51] ok if the partion is gone we can cross are fingers that the installer will over write its mbr [21:52] if not and you want duel boot you might need to prepare for a win instlall as well [21:52] I deleted the partition in the KDE Partition Manager [21:52] I don't care. [21:52] It's a pretty much clean Windows install [21:52] all there is on it is some apps that I installed using Ninite [21:53] well win normally needs to come before ubunut/kubuntu for duel boot to work [21:53] Now [21:53] as win10 take over the eufi or mbr [21:53] I can only wipe the disk. [21:53] It's Windows 8.1 [21:53] i'd just proceed with install if all that space if unallocated [21:53] I only have the option to wipe the disk and manual now [21:53] wlel if you don't care i'd say fk it and wipe it [21:54] but thats me [21:54] I still want to keep Windows. [21:54] ok back out of installer for a second [21:55] if you can throw up a screen of your partion using kde manager [21:55] would be helpfull as it is now [21:56] https://imgur.com/qv3RnpM [21:57] restart installer and see if it forces you to wipe or manual again [21:58] Only wipe and manual [21:58] http://askubuntu.com/questions/343268/how-to-use-manual-partitioning-during-installation [21:59] Should I just create a 250gb partition from the blank space [21:59] Format it as EXT4 [21:59] and mount it as /? [21:59] see if that works [22:00] yea turn it into ext4 [22:00] and restart installer [22:00] I did it in manual installer mode [22:00] ok [22:00] Just click Install [22:01] if its going to that partion [22:01] it's nagging about Swap. [22:01] i don't have 2.3mb of ram [22:01] it's gonna be fine [22:01] now it's asking if i'm sure [22:01] Now it's asking where i am [22:01] up to you :) [22:01] ok its running [22:01] and it's copying [22:02] just follow steps [22:02] thank god that worked [22:02] Uk please [22:02] hopefully this is hardest part [22:02] UK keyboard please [22:02] thanks [22:02] but once in installed we gotta cross our fingers it write to bootloader coreectly [22:02] so you can duel boot [22:02] I've done the setup username/password thing [22:02] and it's almost done [22:03] this is why you use USB 3 memory sticks [22:03] i got to i love em [22:03] oh god it's doing that language pack [22:04] I was watching an ubuntu installed [22:04] And it installed all the language packs [22:04] then uninstalled everyone exept english [22:04] as long as you didn't decide to download updates while install you'll be fine [22:04] I didn't [22:04] i don't think it matters with the space you have [22:05] now it's removing stuff [22:05] when it done reboot and you should come to a grub loader [22:05] thats normal [22:05] test and try to boot into windows [22:05] it will be an option you have to manuall with arrow key go down to you'll have 10 second sor so [22:06] or it should autoboot into kubuntu [22:07] It's done [22:07] k reboot [22:08] and test windows first [22:08] wat [22:08] i pressed shutdown [22:08] and partition manager popped up [22:08]
