VulcanJediWhen I click to add Facebook in Online Accounts, I receive the error  message "Could not load generic-oauth plugin, please check your  installation". I tried a few things as suggested here, added  backports ppa, ran apt update and full upgrade commands, rebooted, and  still the same error. Used apt search, as suggested, and the plugin is  installed.00:49

=== morgan_ is now known as yossarianuk
yossarianukhi - using plasma 5.8.x - how can I change pidgin notification volume ?10:34
yossarianuki.e when I get a notication I can see the volume in the application volume  in 'audio volume' however as soon as the sound finishes I cannot see it any longer and when another sound occurs  it goes to the default one10:38
yossarianuk*default volume*10:38
VulcanJediyossarianuk, have you tried turning down system notification volume in the volume settings?11:20
yossarianukI don't think pigin counts as system notification...11:25
yossarianukI asked in #kde and they recommend commenting 'flat-volume = no'11:26
VulcanJedii think it's systemwide notifications, not necessarily ubuntu's notifications11:26
yossarianukok cheers11:27
VulcanJedigood luck11:28
yossarianukthanks11:28
yossarianukI have the sound 'frankly my dear I don't give a damn' (gone with the wind) as my msg notification which was funny until I had a hr long conversation with someone... Also my laptop is providing the radio for the room...  (hence me wanting to change the volume..)11:30
VulcanJediindeed11:38
VulcanJedii'm not fully setup on kde just yet, so if the notification volume doesn't solve it, i will end up seeking the same info11:39
VulcanJedii don't need any pidgin notification interrupting my jams11:40
yossarianukok - fairly major issue...  I have dual screen - if I try to use the right click menu on the right screen (i.e using dolphin) on an icon near the right of the screen the right click menu doesn't open11:54
yossarianukhowever if I do the same on primary screen the right click menu opens to the left-11:54
yossarianuki.e I cannot use right click menu unless I drag the icon to the left of the screen on the right monitor - its like it cant open as its trying to open to the right but its the screen edge...11:55
yossarianuksorry - I dont mean the inital right click menu - i mean the sub menu - i.e right click on icon -> open-with (for example)11:56
yossarianukreally annoying11:56
yossarianukif I hover over (for exmaple) open-with -> nothing happens I see no sub menu unless I drag the dolphin screen over to the left of the screen11:58

BluesKajKurousagiMK2, I can help with activities and VDs idf you have questions about them...posting urls to show your issues is not good practice until after you've stated your problem16:27
KurousagiMK2‎General_Martok asked "hi, can someone tell me the name of the app which is similar to OS X Mission Controll?" I only saw it? http://imgur.com/a/NxLQa16:33
General_MartokI want to switch between Apps. I want to see  all open ones in a kind of preview mode like Mission control in OS X. See here: http://images.techhive.com/images/article/2012/12/expose-all-windows-100018345-large.jpg16:34

General_Martokthe idea is to put the function on the middle mouse button to have an overview/preview of all open Windows/apps16:39
acheronuk'resent windows' maybe the desktop affect you want?16:43
acheronukcan have that set to trigger via moving cursor to a particular corner, or certain key combination I think16:44
General_Martokif thats the name maybe, i have german Kubuntu und don't find "recent windows"16:45

General_Martokthats it, yes16:46
acheronukin system settings16:46
General_Martokthats it16:48
General_Martokthx16:48
acheronuknot sure if you can bins to the middle key by default, but in linux there are some programs or settings that you can use to reassign mouse button mappings etc, and/or assign them to be equivalent to a series of key presses16:48
acheronuklong time since I tried that though.....16:48

Roeythe nameservers--even if I put in the OpenDNS ones into /etc/resolv.conf, it doesn't appear to take hold.19:12
