lordievaderGood morning.08:54
parth_i am unable to install vmrc, can anyone help ?09:57
parth_?09:58
lordievader!info vmrc10:13
ubottuPackage vmrc does not exist in yakkety10:13
lordievaderparth_: What is vmrc?10:14
parth_vmware remote console10:16
lordievaderAh, vmware. Don't think vmware stuff is quickly going in the repos. Do you have a .deb?10:21
parth_no its .bundle10:26
lordievaderI read on the web that .bundle is mostly used for Mac OSX, are you sure you have the right version?10:29
BluesKajHey all10:53
Duuvah89BluesKaj, are you ther?14:35
BluesKajDuuvah89, yes14:36
Duuvah89BluesKaj, Goodmorning! I never got my vpn connected so I went back to kubuntu 16.04.14:36
Duuvah89BluesKaj, the vpn installed without a problem on 16.0414:36
BluesKajDuuvah89, has to be a bug then, however I don't use network-manager or it's vpn version, so i think the problem lies with either of those apps on 16.1014:39
BluesKajDuuvah89, does 16.04 meet your needs other than your vpn requirements?14:43
Duuvah89BluesKaj, I agree, and yes Kubu 16.04 is perfect, I use it for work and going to use it for my lpic 1, yes I am a total novice lol14:45
shiverzhello guys! can someone give me a hand? preferably someone who runs kubuntu with 3 monitors and 2 nvidia graphics cards.. I am having some issues finalizing my settings.14:45
BluesKajDuuvah89, well 16.04 is LTS so it's supported longer than regular kubuntu OSs ,and a good choice for a work computer.14:47
BluesKaj!LTS14:47
ubottuLTS means Long Term Support. Until 12.04 LTS versions of Ubuntu were supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server; since 12.04 (Precise Pangolin) LTS versions will be supported for 5 years on the desktop and server. The latest LTS version of Ubuntu is !Xenial (Xenial Xerus 16.04.1)14:47
Duuvah89BluesKaj, Regular Kubuntu OS? whats the difference?14:48
BluesKajDuuvah89, they upgrade to new version every 6 months14:49
BluesKajI'm testing 17.04 as we speak14:49
BluesKajDuuvah89, LTS versions are meant for use on work pcs due to their stability and length of support14:52
Duuvah89BluesKaj, what is the benefit of upgrading every six months?14:52
Duuvah89am I missing out on anything?14:53
BluesKajDuuvah89,  newer packages , newer themes etc14:53
BluesKajDuuvah89, I still use 14.04.4 on one of my pcs as a fallback OS in case something goes wrong with 16.10 or 17.0414:55
BluesKajI use it on my media center pc  Duuvah89, because it just works14:56
Duuvah89BluesKaj, so would I use 16.10 or 17, for a gaming pc?14:56
BluesKajDuuvah89, I can't answer that because I'm not a gamer14:57
shiverzwell, there is SteamOS14:59
Duuvah89BluesKaj, WELL WHAT IN THE WORLD DO IF Y NOT GAME!!!!!!!! THE HORROR!!!!!!14:59
BluesKajmy media pc contains all my music, picture and movie files and ity's connected to my video/tv and sound systems14:59

Duuvah89gotcha14:59
Duuvah89brb15:00
BluesKajI spend a lot of my time here on irc for starters15:00
shiverzBluesKaj maybe you could give me a hand? I am still quite new to linux15:01
shiverzwould be very kind of you15:01
BluesKajdepends on your issue shiverz , tell us what it is15:02
shiverzI have 3 monitors connected to 2 identical nvidia graphics cards without SLI bridge. I got my setup to work with tweaking the xorg.conf, but now I have this issue: when I maximize a window, it maximizes over all 3 monitors. I would like the window to maximize only to the current monitor. I tried fiddling with KWin but without avail. I could upload15:05
shiverzmy xorg.conf to pastebin or similar if that helps.15:05
BluesKajshiverz, not really, sorry but i have expertise whatsoever with multiple monitors. I use a large screen plasma tv as a monitor so i don't need anything else.15:07
BluesKajno expertise15:07
shiverzokay, thank you anyway! :)15:08
Duuvah89back15:10
BluesKajDuuvah89, I repeat, I spend a lot of my time here on irc for starters15:11
BluesKajI'm old and games never interested me much15:11
Duuvah89BluesKaj, Thats why you are THE Kubu Guru lol15:16
BluesKajnot really , I'm a techie who got interested in pcs after retirement, 2 yrs after my first home pc i discovered Linux15:18
Duuvah89what was your first home pc?15:19
BluesKaja 1998 vintage HP celeron with 64mb RAN , 6Gb hdd and 366mhz cpu on dialup for internet15:20
BluesKajRAM even15:20
BluesKajDSL was available a couple yrs later which I connected as soon as possible15:23
Duuvah89brb15:23
BluesKajDuuvah89, how about you ?15:23
Duuvah89BluesKaj, My first pc was a Dell e510, pent4, 8gb of ram, I had that pc all the way up until a couple of years ago, I upgraded the hd to a used wd raptor drive, that computer was my lover15:31
Duuvah89jk15:31
Duuvah89HAHA15:31
Duuvah89I did not have digital relations with that computer15:31
BluesKajwe have digital relations with a pc with every keystroke and mouse action :-)15:32

fmeerkoetterthe sound on my kubuntu16.04 box dies on a regular basis (a few hours max).15:48

fmeerkoetterwhat specific should i check?15:53
MrokiiHello. How can I see all available network-connections in Kubuntu 16.10? I can see the network-icon in the standard-bar that is visible on KDE, but it only shows my (already connected) Ethernet-connection. But I also have a wlan-Stick attached (which worked before). But at the moment I can't see it when clicking on the Network-icon.15:54
BluesKajno matter, your setting timers for sleep etc, fmeerkoetter15:54
fmeerkoetterBluesKaj: these are very short, 2, 5 and 10 minutes15:55
fmeerkoetterBluesKaj: audio survives longer15:55
fmeerkoettersometimes an hour15:55
fmeerkoetterits also not tied to inactivity15:56
fmeerkoetterit just happend to me while working on a document15:56
fmeerkoetter(at least thats my impression)15:56
BluesKajfmeerkoetter,  which audio chip ?15:56
MrokiiForget my question. Seems I got it working now.15:56
fmeerkoetterJan 18 16:39:00 naos kernel: snd_hda_codec_realtek hdaudioC1D0: autoconfig for ALC3232: line_outs=1 (0x14/0x0/0x0/0x0/0x0) type:speaker15:57
BluesKajMrokii, sometimes the network daemon takes a while to recognize all network interfaces15:58
fmeerkoetterthats the internal one15:58
MrokiiBluesKaj: Maybe that is what happened. Not sure.15:58
MrokiiI had just rebooted my system.15:58
BluesKajMrokii, ok15:58
BluesKajfmeerkoetter, personally i purge pulseaudio and puleaudio utils on my intel equipped audio pcs ...snd-hda-intel works directly with alsa alsa-utils  without the need for pulse in the mix so to speak...I'm not advising you to do so, but I have fewer audio problems without pulseaudio16:02
BluesKajsome other audio chip drivers are written to depnend on pulseaudio , but not the intel hda16:03
BluesKajdepend16:03
BluesKajfm and trying to track down a failing audio server problem like you have with pulse is a difficult one16:05
BluesKajfmeerkoetter,^16:05
MrokiiCan somebody point me to up-to-date info about changing the names of network interfaces? I found something on the net about editing "/etc/iftab", but I'm not sure if that's the best way to do it.16:10
BluesKajMrokii,  /etc/iftab doesn't exist on current supported versions of kubuntu afaik16:21
BluesKajbbiab,16:22
BluesKajMrokii, systemd has it's own naming scheme, http://www.ubuntugeek.com/network-interfaces-name-change-in-ubuntu-15-10-wily-werewolf.html16:43
MrokiiBluesKaj: Thanks, that's useful information. I'll see if I can change the names to my needs, following the instruction.16:45
BluesKajMrokii, why do you need to change the interface names, you'll just create problems for yourself16:46
himcesjfI am noticing a weird behaviour on my Kubuntu system running on a 3.0 USB stick connected to USB 3.0 port that it lags a lot when connected to AC source and the moment it is unplugged from source, it works fine. Any suggestions on how to trace the cause?16:53
