[01:06] Hey, I was trying to install Kubuntu and set up multiple os encryption on the same drive [01:07] everything is set up properly with different boot partitions, encrypted root partitions, etc [01:07] but when I try to finalize the install using /dev/sda for the bootloader install, grub gives me an error [01:08] should I be installing to sda or the option that is defaulted for me, which is /dev/dm-0? I've never heard of this device before so I'd assume it's probably not what I'm looking for [01:44] :) [01:50] sovled by including an efi partition [02:40] <[Relic]> Anyone know if the current version (17.04) supports separate sessions on each monitor with nvidia cards?

[15:00] @R13ose: https://github.com/PapirusDevelopmentTeam/arc-kde [15:06] enkeyz: looks like windows === flo is now known as Guest62104 [15:08] @R13ose: it's a flat theme [15:08] development started before windows [15:08] 8 [15:09] enkeyz: meaning? [15:09] so, windows looks like arc-theme [15:09] Okay but I want one that looks nothing like that [15:09] there isn't [15:09] this is the more consistent theme on KDE [15:10] most* [15:10] Ok [15:14] There must be something [15:19] ^ [15:19] * BluesKaj looks for something...there's always 'something" :-) [15:22] I mean to radically change the appearance of kubuntu [15:24] R13ose, radically in what sense? themes, colours, icons etc ...they're all in system settings [15:25] All of them. Yes but I am tried of what I have. === fa is now known as vo1pbx [15:29] you can download lots of difference choices [15:30] different even [15:30] oh, i thought radically change 'under-the-hood' ... === daniel__ is now known as TiglatePileser [15:58] oerheks_: maybe depends what that looks like [16:08] gnome desktop is a radical change :-) [16:08] ugly but different [16:15] Not my style gnome [16:19] personally i think breeze is wimpy looking [16:20] some ppl think it's "cool" ...far from it IMO [16:20] BluesKaj: what do you use? [16:22] oxygen for most === dan_ is now known as danD === danD is now known as DanD [18:00] Hello! [18:00] Hi, I need some help with Kubuntu 16.04 oem installation [18:02] !ask | ksaver [18:02] ksaver: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [18:02] !ask [18:02] Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [18:04] * BluesKaj shrugs, well if you don't to give details about your issue then don't expect much help [18:04] want [18:05] Well I have a question. How does one change the bright, bright blue on the login screen? I've found images on the internet where the login screen theme is an option in System settings > Workspace theme [18:05] http://i.imgur.com/L5Euj7rl.png [18:05] Like there. [18:06] after I finished the installation I run "prepare for shipping" and reboot, then next boot I followed the wizard to create a new user and all went well, but when I booted next time a black screen appeared [18:06] But for me it's not avaliable. https://kek.gg/i/335pWX.png [18:07] I can login with my user through the terminal but the graphic environment doesn't appear anymore [18:07] dbpoi, yeah , some won' download . i just chose a fav pic from my pic folder for the login image [18:11] ksaver, prepare for shipping? as for the terminal login use nano to edit your /etc/defualt/grub and replace the quiet splash with nomodest keeping the quotes, save and exit , then sudo update-grub and reboot [18:12] correction: /etc/default/grub [18:12] How would one go about choosing a picture for the login image then? [18:13] Like, I already have an image but how does one set it? [18:16] dbpoi, system settings>startup&shutdown>login screen>background (on the right)m, click on the thembnail choose 'load from file' [18:16] Thank you. [18:16] Gheez [18:16] I didn't expect it to be in there but I guess it's not the workspace so. [18:16] navigate to the pic want in whatever folder it's located [18:17] wanted [18:18] BluesKaj, thanks for your answer but I don't understand what you mean, I don't have any problem with grub and terminal login, the problem is with KDE [18:19] ksaver, think it's graphics, just try the nomodeset to get to a desktop [18:19] nomodeset actually helped me yesterday because my graphics card was a little too new. \o/ [18:19] yup === z4ki is now known as zaki [18:23] BluesKaj, I'll try it but if it is an unknown graphics card error I find it puzzling because with the temporary-oem user created after the oem installation the desktop appeared [18:23] dbpoi, then once you have a desktop you can install recommended drivers/graphics driver in kmenu>system settings >driver manager [18:24] Yeah, I got that all down thankfully. [18:24] ksaver, why temporary-oem user? === himcesjf_ is now known as himcesjf [18:28] BluesKaj, the oem installation creates a temporary-oem user which is used IMO for shipping the same OS configuration in batch to a set of computers, when you finish the configuration then you run: oem-config command (which has the icon "prepare for shipping" in the desktop), reboots and then creates your user with your personal details and remove the temporary-oem user === himcesjf_ is now known as himcesjf [18:33] ksaver, I have no experience with the oem installation, but I do think the machine you are trying top boot has a graphics issue due to the behaviour you described and one of easiest "workarounds" is the nomodeset substitute for "quiet splash" in grub to at least get a working desktop, then one can install the needed driver at that point, usually after updating and upgrading first [18:35] BluesKaj, ok thanks, I'll let you know in a moment if your suggestion works [20:46] ksaver: Could this be it? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1561745 [20:46] Launchpad bug 1561745 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "OEM config fails to remove itself" [Medium,Confirmed] [20:47] wxl: That was our OEM black screen bug, right? [20:50] Ot was it this one? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/oem-config/+bug/1638473 [20:50] Launchpad bug 1638473 in oem-config (Ubuntu) "Blank screen after running oem-config" [Undecided,Triaged] [21:29] what have you done with linux? everything in this kubuntu slow(!) like it's xenix on a 35 years old hardware. Apps freeze ( firefox the worst), desktop freezes every few minutes...oh and it's not just the desktop, switch to VC shows sloooooow login process ( 5-60+ seconds). In the 1990s linux was promising...now it's weirder and weirder [21:29] kubuntu is one of the worst tried [21:30] boggles the mind how once a promising OS has turned into ...who knows what...weird and weirder [21:32] Firefox is screwed ok, desktop is screwed ...odd but happens...but how do you manage to slow down the underlying components? [21:32] kubunted: sorry you are having a bad experience [21:32] I've had the opposite -- keeps getting better [21:32] and faster [21:32] valorie: which version? [21:32] I'm running 17.04, the last release [21:32] with backports [21:33] better? [21:33] lemme try [21:33] I have 16.04, the LTS on my travel laptop [21:33] also with backports [21:33] it's working great [21:33] I've had an awful fedora once or twice then a better one showed up, may be this too [21:37] where are checksums for the latest? [21:40] !md5 [21:40] To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows [21:40] um, ubbotu? [21:40] there ya go [21:40] yes of course, there are always published checksums [22:46] * DarinMiller is impressed with all the little ubottu secrets that valories knows :)
