[19:05] not using it right now cablop , but I do use it on another PC [19:05] what's up? [19:06] various_accounts, well, i want to know Neon configuration in regard to GTK apps [19:07] it happens that i installed Neon on top of Kubuntu, then many many icons on GTK apps just dissapeared [19:08] i reverted Neon back to Kubuntu and the icons appeared again, then re-enabled Neon repository and installed again... and again, the icons are gone [19:09] so i want to know what are the Neon settings about it [19:09] cablop: I'm not sure what you mean [19:09] what exactly do you want to configure? [19:09] Neon has some settings for GTK, about appearance and icons [19:09] i want to set them as expected for Neon, because Kubuntu options work bad for that [19:10] oh, try changing the theme [19:10] i tried, with no luck [19:11] my guess is Neon installs some theme, when installed clean, but not when just enabling the repo [19:11] and i can't find the right package to add to my system [19:12] try noting the icon theme being used in Kubuntu [19:12] Maybe Neon applies its own theme [19:12] it's in system settings -> Appearance -> Icons [19:12] if you're on Neon right now, try changing it to Oxygen or something similar [19:13] ah, sadly I can't help you there [19:13] maybe somebody else can [19:14] cablop: I followed https://gist.github.com/nihathrael/7429eeb8d539c4c8e0ade03269b3f95a [19:14] Didn't have problems [19:14] Maybe `neon-desktop` is what you need [19:15] good luck [19:16] i installed it, with no luck [19:16] i'm afraid that package, being a GTK thing, is not part of the neon-desktop dependencies [19:17] Maybe downloading an icon theme will help, but I have no idea [19:17] good luck, mate [19:23] ok, thanks for your help === kubuntu is now known as jjman [20:20] hi. i need help. I'm struggling to get 16.10 to install w/ a manual partition setup. Using UEFI. GPT partitions. I have tried every possible combination of manual installs and nothing works. but if i use a guided it works. [20:21] I've manually partitioned for over 10yrs. but 1st time i've had to deal w/ UEFI. its a nightmare. [20:22] I even try to duplicate exactly what the guided setup used but manually and it doesn't work. so something must be broken in the installer. [20:28] trying to run boot-repair to see if it helps. it says it needs a bios-grub partition which as i understand is only necessary for legacy Bios mode. === kubuntu is now known as jjman [21:13] I think secure boot is whats causing me problems. So i'm getting a boot & app menu and i can't go past it. It lists Ubuntu but it won't load. I can't get into my bios anymore either. Now that this retarded UEFI is blocking it [21:14] I have tried every single F key to get into bios and it no longer works. Its supposed to be F2 but it doesn't work. [21:24] hmm the kiwi webirc client from site seems to be having some hicups [21:28] jjman: you may have to use the live session to go in and fix stuff [21:28] or redo the install [21:28] sounds really hosed [21:50] minor bug I noticed on 17.04 /sbin/ldconfig.real: /usr/lib/nvidia-375/libEGL.so.1 is not a symbolic link [21:50] and my touchpad still don't seem to work on any linux distro rather strange and annoying I tried many things [21:51] it seems as though no one made a driver for it for the kernel or mayberr usb 3.1 is buggy [21:51] brian|lfs: please report those bugs on LP [21:52] easy way: `ubuntu-bug packagename` in the commandline [21:52] for other questions about zesty please ask in #ubuntu+1 [21:57] valorie: i'm in live session. I've reinstalled over a dozen times. The ONLY thing that works is installing with a guided setup. don't know why. Even when i duplicate manually partitions. it won't boot past what apparently is my Samsung Boot menu. [21:59] But wondering why i can no longer get into my bios now to make changes. Can't find a firmware update for it either. Sounds like someone else had similiar problem w/ the Samsung Cronos laptops. [21:59] so why do you want to manually install rather than guided? [22:00] Because. guided is useless to me. I have been doing manual partitioning for 15years. why would i start putting everything on ONE partition now [22:00] ah [22:01] !efi [22:01] UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI [22:01] i usually do dual boot. but my MBR got hosed thanks to windows. so i had to toast the HD and start over. and set everything up in UEFI. but its causing me nothing but pain [22:01] and i have a hybrid HD which has a portion SSD and the rest HDD [22:02] "if Ubuntu is the only operating system on your computer, then it does not matter whether you install Ubuntu in UEFI mode or not" [22:02] so i was trying to setup all the boot stuff on the SSD portion. [22:02] but even if i ignore the ssd portion it won't work in manual mode. [22:02] I'm wondering why you set up uefi if you aren't dual booting? [22:03] Well i can no longer get into my bios to even make changes. [22:03] I may still dual boot. but not right now because my dvdRom drive stopped working so i can't install windows [22:03] matter of opinion if UEFI works use it [22:05] or i may just use windows in VM. [22:05] jjman: did you try the shift+restart option that page shows? [22:06] hmm i have tried shift. and that didn't do anythig [22:07] :( [22:10] jjman: this is the most complete guide to UEFI I've found so far: http://www.rodsbooks.com/linux-uefi/ [22:12] ok i'll take a look. [22:13] so does grub care if its on sda or sdb [22:13] and from what i've read efi doesn't care which drive its on. u can have 1 efi partition per drive [22:16] going to reboot and try something else. === lethu_ is now known as lethu [23:36] In Plasma 5.9.4, is there a way to set a monitor to default? [23:36] Multiple monitor support seems horribly broken [23:38] steve__: have you tried kscreen? [23:38] * valorie just uses a laptop [23:38] I don't see any obvious GUI indications that a default monitor can be set. Not even a "read me" indication of what the existing options do. [23:38] valorie: No, not yet. [23:38] I think the entire KDE team uses a laptop. [23:39] I see photos of people's multi-screen setups all the time [23:39] so I know they work for at least some devels [23:39] that said, I hear grumbling about Qt defaults as well [23:43] Oh, there is no contestation, it's broken. That said, I'm just trying to make it work. Right now, when I turn on my monitors, it's a roll of the dice as to which panel or widget lands on which monitor. [23:45] :( [23:47] For some reason I cannot get the mouse settings to apply either. The cursor is always has the same default settings no matter what I set in "Mouse - System Settings - Advanced" [23:48] you might check permissions in your home folder [23:48] sometimes some folder or file gets set to root inadvertantly [23:48] perhaps running some gui application as root [23:49] `chown -R username folder/` or so [23:50] won't hurt, might help [23:54] Well, chown -R $USER ~ didn't hurt, but didn't help. :-/ [23:57] :( [23:57] it was worth a try; sorry it didn't help
