[10:23] <R13ose> Hi
[10:24] <R13ose> I have a small panel on the left side of the screen that is hiddeb but pops up and stays up on and off and want to stop that.  How do I do that?
[10:36] <Mrokii> R13ose: you can right click on it over an empty area. There should be a menu "Panel options/Panel Settings". If you choose that, another panel should open with a "More Settings"-Button at the bottom. There you can chose if you want to have make the panel always visible.
[10:37] <Mrokii> R13ose: Could be that "Auto Hide" is enabled for you. Hope this helps.
[10:38] <R13ose> Thanks.  My question was more how do I stop thia from popping up?  I only want this to pop up if I hover over the area.
[10:41] <Mrokii> Hi all. I have a question. I'm using KDE connect to sync my Android device with my desktop. So far, I have successfully tested file transfers and clipboard-sharing. Supposedly one can also type text on the desktop-system to be used in chat-apps on Android, but that doesn't work for me. I get a notification with some text and "Click to edit text". But when I click on that notification, nothing happens. What
[10:41] <Mrokii> am I doing wrong?
[10:42] <R13ose> What is KDE Connect?
[10:43] <R13ose> Mrokii: what app are you trying to do that in?
[10:44] <Mrokii> R13ose: A combination of apps. One is running on the Kubuntu-desktop, the other on an Android device. It can be used to sync clipboards between both systems, send files from one to the other and some other functions I haven't tested yet. But one I would really like to use is the ability to type text on my regular keyboard on my desk to be sent to chat apps on Android.
[10:45] <Mrokii> R13ose: Doesn't matter which apps I'm trying to make it work, the notification I get on the desktop doesn't seem to react in the way it should, if I understand it correctly. But it never does anything for me, no matter what chat app I am trying to use on Android.

[10:49] <thibaultmol> Hi, There is still an issue in Kubuntu 16.04 where nouveau fails to load on GTx 10-seris graphics cards from nvidia
[10:50] <thibaultmol> There is a workaround, but that's not great for new users who want to try it out
[10:50] <thibaultmol> I found this bug on the ubuntu bugtackers
[10:50] <thibaultmol> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1602340
[10:50] <thibaultmol> how can I check if that fix has been applied for kubuntu?
[10:55] <R13ose> Mrokii: unsure as I have searched for answer
[11:00] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[11:02] <R13ose> Hi
[11:31] <Spiderman> hi
[11:59] <clivejo> Mrokii: regarding replying to texts on desktop system, you have to be using the stock messaging app otherwise it doesnt allow you to replay
[12:05] <fauxalliance> pushbullet?
[12:24] <Mrokii> clivejo: Okay, thanks.
[12:25] <Mrokii> clivejo: I am not suing the stock messaging app. But the funny thing is that I still get the popup on the desktop, no matter which app I open.
[12:26] <clivejo> you will get the popup, just will do nothing when you try to reply
[12:26] <Mrokii> clivejo: Yep, that's exactly what happens.
[12:27] <clivejo> if you change the default messaging app back to the stock app, it will work
[12:27] <clivejo> and is very handy!
[12:27] <Mrokii> I guess, but that's no option for me. I like the additional functions of the messaging app I use.
[12:28] <clivejo> Default Messaging app has to be : Messaging
[12:28] <clivejo> then at the moment you won't be able to reply via your desktop
[12:29] <Mrokii> yeah, seems so. Oh well, at least I know what the problem is.
[12:29] <clivejo> I was using Hangouts
[12:29] <Mrokii> Thanks.
[12:29] <clivejo> but have gone back to using messaging as this feature is more useful for my way of working
[12:30] <clivejo> so much quicker and easier to type replies on my computer
[12:36] <Mrokii> Maybe I'll try it out.
[14:01] <Toast> KDE Partition Manager seems to crash after applying actions (in a way which can damage data) on the last LTS release. Is the more recent normal release, or the beta of the next release any better?
[14:05] <rossier_> I constantly get this message in dmesg : Feb 22 06:50:05 a21nb01 kernel: [   71.396430] [drm:drm_mode_addfb2] [FB:60]
[14:05] <rossier_> any idea about what it is ?
[14:05] <rossier_> (I'm using KDE neon)
[14:07] <BluesKaj> Toast, unless you're a pure kde fan then install gparted
[14:21] <Toast> BluesKaj: I did, but it doesn't seem to let you control exactly where the partitions start and end. I've mirrored a HDD to an SSD and want to align the partitions onto 8192 boundaries.
[14:25] <BluesKaj> Toast, resize option should have align setting in the popup
[14:27] <Toast> BluesKaj: I would have needed to move everything up to MB boundaries, but I guess that's not such a big deal.
[14:31] <BluesKaj> Toast, i normally don't have many mbs left over after resizing with gparted, it's usually close  or perfectly aligned
[14:32] <Toast> Thanks. I'm giving it a go now. Fortunately I took an image of everything before trying KDE partition manager, otherwise I would have lost data.
[14:46] <Toast> gparted also crashed. Seems like it's parted that's at the root of the problem :(
[15:10] <BluesKaj> Toast,  ahh, maybe an update/upgrade is in order
[15:11] <Toast> I seemed to get somewhere using gparted, but it came up with offsets I didn't like. Still, I'm trying things to see if it worked. I removed some partitions whilst I was there and it killed grub, so I've got some fixing to do.
[15:13] <BluesKaj> Toast, after fixing the parttions reinstall grub at the vt/tty
[15:15] <BluesKaj> Toast, UEFI? If so I'm not much help..this old pc is BIOS and I wiped my laptop and installed msdos table ..no time to muck abouit with gtp and uefi
[15:16] <BluesKaj> to my chagrin i found out later that uefi/boot isn't difficult after consulting with a few users in the know
[15:25] <Toast> BluesKaj: This laptop is too old for UEFI.
[15:26] <BluesKaj> ok, then it should be much simpler to set your partitions etc
[15:26] <Toast> It's dual boot window/linux. I want to get the windows bit working first (I don;t have re-install disks for that either). Linux, I'm moving that from Kubuntu to Lubuntu because KDE seems to demand more modern graphics hardware than this machine has available.
[15:27] <Toast> If I had the windows install disks, I would have just started from scratch rather than this whole image / resize dance.
[15:28] <Toast> All whilst trying to help with my Son's homework...
[15:28] <BluesKaj> Toast, do you have boot repair ?
[15:29] <BluesKaj> it's a good disc to have around
[15:35] <Toast> BluesKaj: Not yet. May grab it when I get a chance. Thanks for the reminder.
[15:35] <BluesKaj> np :-)
[16:16] <Roey> BluesKaj: hello.  Kubuntu is not making my toast in the morning, I want my money back.
[16:17] <BluesKaj> lodge a complaint with Blue Systems  :-)
