| deeno | I was looking for software, and I had an idea to a buy a PDF editor, but it was mac OS X based. Can I get it to run on linux. | 00:35 |
|---|---|---|
| deeno | Can I get it to run on Linux? | 00:35 |
| genii | No | 00:48 |
| genii | deeno: Just open the pdf you want to edit with LibreOffice Draw | 00:51 |
| deeno | well I am interested in using and abusing mac software, but I guess there is no way to emulate the mac on Linux. | 00:52 |
| genii | Then choose use the "export to PDF" | 00:52 |
| deeno | Can I open a PDF with LO Draw? | 00:53 |
| genii | You can emulate earlier ones with apps like basilisk2 but then those were 68k machines. And then the lates MacOS they would run would be 7.5.3 or so | 00:53 |
| genii | deeno: Yes. LibreOffice Draw | 00:53 |
| deeno | I guess you can. I wonder if I should try it in Win10 | 00:55 |
| tertu | what's a good wireless chipset to look for in a usb dongle? | 01:00 |
| deeno | I don't know. check newegg | 01:00 |
| genii | tertu: Atheros/Qualcomm | 01:02 |
| genii | ( assuming a WiFi dongle ) | 01:03 |
| schnoodles | Hey guys. Today when I turned on my machine MySQL has decided to not work. journalctl shows this -- https://gist.github.com/joshbenham/74513cbd9f9180f6f098d9fefc91d872 | 01:08 |
| tertu | genii: yes. the dongle i bought has an Atheros AR9271 in it | 01:31 |
| deeno | How do I disable touch pad in Plasma permanently everlasting | 01:46 |
| schnoodles | If I removed akonadi-backend-mysql will that be very very bad? I have a bad dependency issue and cant seem to resolve it. | 02:03 |
| valorie | schnoodles: do you use the PIM stack? | 02:03 |
| valorie | kmail, etc? | 02:03 |
| schnoodles | No I do not. | 02:04 |
| valorie | then it won't be a problem | 02:04 |
| schnoodles | I am attempting to reinstall first to hope that it works. Seems like I have a pkg unmet dependency bug and I cant reinstall anything because it wants me to do apt install -f which also throws an error.... | 02:05 |
| valorie | apt install -f is always the best idea | 02:09 |
| valorie | what error does that throw? | 02:09 |
| valorie | -f = fix | 02:09 |
| schnoodles | I just seem to be getting some crazy database errors. Now I am trying to upgrade to Maria because MySQL was playing up. | 02:22 |

| potved | Hi anyone awake available to assist me to understanding why i ended up with two lock screens after suspend/resume (one being gnome's and the other kde) -- backstory: I install gnome-desktop and didnt like it and removed it.. i guess i missed the lockscreen part of it. How can i deactivate it and remove it? | 02:33 |
| deeno | How do I get to adminstration mode? | 03:00 |
| deeno | How do I get to the administrative metal of Linux? | 03:02 |
| deeno | How do I get to adminstrative metal of linux? | 03:02 |
| valorie | deeno: what? | 03:04 |
| valorie | are you asking about sudo? | 03:04 |
| valorie | !sudo | 03:05 |
| ubottu | sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !pkexec (for older releases: !gksu and !kdesudo). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 03:05 |
| deeno | no I am asking for no X window mode | 03:06 |
| deeno | no I am asking for non X window mode | 03:06 |
| Oderus | just start in recovery mode | 03:06 |
| deeno | I don't have GRUB | 03:07 |
| deeno | How do I do it without Grub? eh | 03:07 |
| Oderus | press escape multiple times when booting, this should bring you to grub | 03:07 |
| deeno | And if it is not installed. this isn't a multiOS machine | 03:08 |
| Oderus | or you could always install grub | 03:08 |
| valorie | I don't see how recovery mode can be called "administrative" mode | 03:08 |
| valorie | you can do little in recovery mode | 03:09 |
| Oderus | the person wants to be in ubuntu with no X from what I understand | 03:09 |
| valorie | um | 03:10 |
| krytarik | deeno: See http://askubuntu.com/a/79682 | 03:10 |
| deeno | I am having troubles. I don't like using my password to install and alter security flags. | 03:10 |
| valorie | perhaps instead of installing Kubuntu, then install Ubuntu Server ? | 03:11 |
| valorie | or netboot, so you can get exactly what you want | 03:11 |
| valorie | !netboot | 03:11 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall - Don't want to use a CD? See http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate | 03:11 |
| deeno | I wanted to defrag my SSD | 03:18 |
| deeno | solid state drive | 03:19 |
| Oderus | does it have an ext4 filesystem? | 03:19 |
| valorie | defragging isn't really a thing in linux | 03:21 |
| Oderus | can be done on an ext4 tho... with e4defrag | 03:21 |
| deeno | Yah, newest Kubuntu | 03:22 |
| valorie | what's the point? | 03:24 |
| deeno | started it, what next? | 03:24 |
| Oderus | good question valorie. it's almost pointless on a regular drive i don't see the sense on an SSD either :) | 03:25 |
| valorie | it was sort of fun in windows to watch it run | 03:25 |
| valorie | but I don't miss that at all in linux | 03:25 |
| valorie | that's like missing McAfee or so | 03:26 |
| Oderus | its much faster in linux and done by command line so no colored boxes to watch | 03:26 |
| Oderus | missing AOL! | 03:26 |
| deeno | I have had enough. Can I buy a Mac OS X emulator? or should I skip the idea | 03:26 |
| valorie | ha | 03:27 |
| valorie | I did use compuserve, never really AOL | 03:27 |
| Oderus | deeno: you wanted to know about booting into a non X environment but you need a mac os x emulator? I don't understand what it is your trying to do | 03:28 |
| Oderus | i suspect a large amount of alchohol may be involved >.> | 03:31 |
| Oderus | and on that note, good night! | 03:32 |
| deeno | Oderus: several things :) | 03:32 |
| deeno | I wouldn't mind destroying a Mac OS X system ;) | 03:33 |
| deeno | I am not saying the mac os x is user friendly | 03:33 |
| valorie | deeno: you might prefer to run BSD then? | 03:33 |
| deeno | BSD has Mac emulaton ?? | 03:35 |
| valorie | Mac is running BSD | 03:38 |
| deeno | and it is proprietary | 03:39 |
| deeno | perhaps not as much as windows10 but I am not impressed. Look at me, I am cheap just like Apple has always been. | 03:40 |
| valorie | in any case, this doesn't involve Kubuntu | 03:43 |
| valorie | you are welcome to continue in #kubuntu-offtopic | 03:43 |

| ross_ | hey guys, newly installed. Does anyone know how to force the machien to use a specific DNS server rather than fetching it from the router? | 17:57 |
| BluesKaj | ross_, you can add dns nameserver Ips to /etc/network/interfaces or most routers allow you to change dns in their firmware page | 18:05 |
| ross_ | thanks will give it a try | 18:05 |
| ross_ | cant just edit resolv.conf? | 18:07 |

| jubo2 | actually I got weird problems on this machine running 16.10 .. looks like HW problem but HW has been changed once | 18:25 |
| jubo2 | My only working theory is that the machine used to burn the .iso image was somehow rootkitted | 18:25 |
