shadow98 | i have 2 issues I would like to resolve they are pasted in the urls above. | 00:32 |
calcmandan | Roey: do you have the sshd daemon running? | 00:34 |
Roey | yes | 00:34 |
calcmandan | Roey: do you have ssh listening on your system on standard port 22 or did you set it to a different one? | 00:34 |
Roey | I found that it was a mismatch between the port I was supplying ssh and to the router in the IP forward section, and the /actual/ port htat SSHD was listening on | 00:34 |
calcmandan | oh nevermind, you got it working | 00:34 |
Roey | calcmandan: correct | 00:34 |
Roey | thanks though :) | 00:34 |
calcmandan | i didn't read down. | 00:35 |
Roey | now I am trying to figure out why this thing doesn't connect to my dyndns address | 00:35 |
Roey | calcmandan, aye no worries | 00:35 |

MobileRoey | hai!! | 01:23 |
MobileRoey | ok now I have another issue: on my laoptop (hence MobileRoey) I am trying to do-release-upgrade from 16.10 -> 17.04. It got interrupted though.. when I try it now, I get: https://pastebin.com/UB7gfgcU | 01:24 |
Dragnslcr | MobileRoey- cat /etc/apt/sources.list | 01:33 |
Dragnslcr | A few lines down, you should see something like "deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ zesty main restricted" | 01:34 |
Dragnslcr | Does yours say "zesty" or "yakkety"? | 01:34 |
MobileRoey | yeah they all say zesty. | 01:37 |
MobileRoey | it changed that file at least | 01:37 |
MobileRoey | the installer must've, the first time I ran it | 01:37 |
MobileRoey | do-release-upgrade I mean. | 01:37 |
Dragnslcr | Doing a release upgrade is basically just changing the repositories and then doing a normal package update | 01:37 |
MobileRoey | oh I didn't know that. | 01:38 |
Dragnslcr | So you should be able to just do a normal apt update and apt dist-upgrade | 01:38 |
nauticalnexus | Hi, Kubuntu 17.04 keeps trying to mount 2 encrypted partitions. I have no encrypted partitions. I have never had encrypted partitions on this install. | 01:38 |
nauticalnexus | Well systemd I guess. It does it on boot | 01:38 |
MobileRoey | E: The package linux-headers-4.8.0-51-generic needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it. | 01:39 |
MobileRoey | that is when I run dist-upgrade | 01:39 |
MobileRoey | Dragnslcr, ^ | 01:41 |
Dragnslcr | I don't think 17.04 has any 4.8 kernel packages | 01:42 |
Dragnslcr | At least I only see 4.10 packages | 01:42 |
Dragnslcr | MobileRoey- run "uname -a" to check what kernel version you're running | 01:43 |
Dragnslcr | If you're running a newer kernel, it should be safe to remove packages for older kernels | 01:44 |
MobileRoey | 4.8.0-51-generic #54-Ubuntu SMP Tue Apr 25 16:32:21 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux | 01:48 |
MobileRoey | so that's 4.10 | 01:48 |
MobileRoey | 5.04 is 4.10 | 01:49 |
MobileRoey | I know that at least | 01:49 |
MobileRoey | is that how you are seeing if it is still running the rest of 14.10, with the kernel version? Why, because if yo uuse lsb_release -a, it will say Zesty when it really hasn;t even started to change over yet | 01:50 |
Dragnslcr | MobileRoey- try running "apt remove linux-headers-4.8.0-51-generic" | 01:54 |
Dragnslcr | Since you won't need that package after the upgrade anyway | 01:55 |
Roey | ok | 01:56 |
Roey | in a bit | 01:56 |
Roey | thanks | 01:56 |
Roey | so then what if I continue to get this same error afterwards? | 01:57 |
Dragnslcr | Roey- I'm not certain. You might be able to download and install the package manually. I don't know if changing your repositories back to 16.10 would break lots of other things. | 02:02 |

Oderus | hi. desperately trying to backup a dvd but each time i try it says k3b needs transcode installed. I have it installed but still get the message. any ideas? sorry to crosspost, i just realized i posted in ubuntu and not kubuntu | 02:27 |
Maynard | Sooooooo wtf? I cannot get in #ubuntu as directed by the dev in studio. | 04:10 |
Maynard | something about registering which it says usernam invalid...changed.ok email now invalid??? It MY email FFS! | 04:11 |
oerheks | Maynard, #ubuntu is currently under spam attacks, so you need to register and log in with that account, i can see you are not logged in yet | 04:12 |
Maynard | WHat the hell am I doing wrong???? Been looking at hundreds of answers in the wrong scenario for me for DAYS now. | 04:12 |
oerheks | help with registering in #freenode | 04:12 |
Maynard | Right.....I followed the directions. Invalid email (MY email). | 04:12 |
Maynard | ...... | 04:14 |
Maynard | OK. SO I made a bootable Live USB. When I do the install everything is fine now. Reboot and casper/vmlinuz not found. But I think it should be in the EFI file and a .efi no? | 04:15 |
Maynard | I already ran boot-repair and that worked a couple times then ran pages of code and no boot. | 04:18 |
Maynard | Is there anybody out there in 218 of you all? | 04:19 |
Maynard | Really? <oerkeks> | 04:20 |

ryzokuken | Kubuntu 17.04 is buggy AF. | 08:13 |
ryzokuken | I tried to shutdown my computer, the greeter failed miserably. | 08:13 |
ryzokuken | Then, the distro just failed to run any app or do anything whatsoever, so I went to tty1 and used `shutdown 0` (which is bad, the distro SHOULD shutdown normally without much poking) | 08:14 |
ryzokuken | now, X just won't start. | 08:14 |
ryzokuken | the ttys run okay, but the graphical environment just show a black screen. | 08:15 |
ryzokuken | is there a way to fix this? I just installed the nvidia drivers, is it because of them? | 08:15 |
hateball | ryzokuken: Could well be | 08:17 |
hateball | ryzokuken: How did you install them? | 08:18 |
ryzokuken | using the normal GUI utility | 08:18 |
hateball | ryzokuken: What chipset do you have? | 08:18 |
ryzokuken | my GPU? | 08:18 |
hateball | ryzokuken: Yea | 08:18 |
ryzokuken | Its a GT 920M | 08:18 |
hateball | ryzokuken: And what driver did you pick? Not 340 I guess? | 08:19 |
hateball | 340 is for legacy chipets | 08:19 |
ryzokuken | actually, it autopicks one | 08:19 |
hateball | ryzokuken: you can also use "ubuntu-drivers" in cli to manage drivers | 08:19 |
ryzokuken | yes. It probably used nvidia-375 | 08:20 |
hateball | or just simply "sudo apt install nvidia-375" | 08:20 |
hateball | hmmm, that should work tho | 08:20 |
hateball | ryzokuken: Is SDDM black, or does it turn black after you log in? | 08:20 |
ryzokuken | hateball: doing that would automagically take care of nouveau? | 08:20 |
ryzokuken | hateball: no SDDM as well. | 08:21 |
ryzokuken | it seems to be an issue with X | 08:21 |
hateball | ryzokuken: yea installling nvidia-X blacklists nouveau etc | 08:21 |
ryzokuken | hateball: okay, cool. | 08:21 |
hateball | ryzokuken: maybe it failed building the modules properly, make sure dkms is installed | 08:21 |
hateball | apt install dkms | 08:22 |
ryzokuken | I also installed intel-microcode, but I doubt it'll interfere. | 08:22 |
hateball | no that's fine | 08:22 |
ryzokuken | I'm on the same machine on another distro. | 08:23 |
hateball | oh so you're livebooted? or dual booted? | 08:23 |
ryzokuken | hateball: can I somehow chroot into that installation and do all the installation? | 08:23 |
ryzokuken | hateball: dual booted | 08:23 |
hateball | ryzokuken: I... havent fiddled with chroots in an age | 08:24 |
hateball | so I cant be of much help. but I suppose you could | 08:24 |
hateball | ryzokuken: while it shouldnt be needed, you could also try the latest beta driver from PPA if you like | 08:25 |
hateball | that would be done with: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa && sudo apt update && sudo apt install nvidia-381 | 08:25 |
ryzokuken | I hardly think that's the issue. | 08:25 |
hateball | ryzokuken: oh and is this a hybrid gpu? | 08:25 |
ryzokuken | I mean, I have used 375 for sometime. | 08:25 |
ryzokuken | hateball: it is. | 08:25 |
hateball | yes the 920 series should be supported by 375 | 08:25 |
ryzokuken | I have been using ubuntu and mint variants for quite some time now, never faced issues like this. | 08:26 |
hateball | ryzokuken: so you have had the machine working on 17.04 + 375 driver? | 08:26 |
ryzokuken | yes. | 08:26 |
hateball | right, so it has broken now, presumably after an update? | 08:26 |
ryzokuken | mostly 16.04 + 375, but also 17.04 + 375 iirc | 08:26 |
ryzokuken | hateball: I just installed kubuntu, wanted to try KDE | 08:27 |
oerheks | run dpkg --configure -a # and then hit ctrl alt F7 again? | 08:27 |
ryzokuken | oerheks: I'll definitely try that. | 08:28 |
oerheks | and run updates again/ apt install -f | 08:28 |
ryzokuken | I didn't update the system yet. | 08:28 |
ryzokuken | Installing the drivers is usually the first thing I do when I install a new distro | 08:29 |
oerheks | updates, driver(s), ant then the riddle of apps you want | 08:29 |
amichair_ | hi, I just tried to run an upgrade from yakkety to zesty, and it seemed to fail to install kubuntu-desktop. After reboot I saw a kde login screen, but after that just empty wallpaper, though I can access terminal via ctrl-alt-f1. I also have no wireless after reboot so hard to try to change sources etc... how do I fix this? | 08:32 |
hateball | amichair_: you can use nmcli to connect to wifi from a tty | 08:33 |
amichair_ | hateball: I'm trying to do that, but it says "active connection removed before it was initialized" | 08:33 |
amichair_ | hateball: I ran nmcli c up <ssid> | 08:34 |
hateball | amichair_: perhaps the zesty kernel disagrees with your wifi chipset. do you see anything in dmesg ? | 08:35 |
amichair_ | hateball: IPv6: ADDRCONF (NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready | 08:37 |
amichair_ | hateball: shouldn't be ipv6, though maybe it's unrelated? | 08:38 |
hateball | amichair_: yeah thats unrelated | 08:40 |
hateball | amichair_: what wifi chipset is it? | 08:40 |
amichair_ | hateball: I think it's atheros 9k or something like that... how do I check? | 08:43 |
hateball | amichair_: lspci -k | 08:43 |
hateball | amichair_: that will show you the module it uses as well | 08:43 |
hateball | and if you try unloading and reloading the module, any complaints should be logged to dmesg | 08:43 |
hateball | like if it needs a firmware file that is not present on the system or something like that | 08:44 |
amichair_ | hateball: ya, ath9k, AR9485 | 08:44 |
hateball | amichair_: try "sudo modprobe -r ath9k && sudo modprobe ath9k" and then run dmesg | 08:59 |
hateball | apparently it has loaded the module at least | 09:00 |
amichair_ | hateball: ok, I did rmmod and modprobe (I assume rmmode is the same as modprobe -r), then tried nmcli again and it gave a different message about password | 09:01 |
amichair_ | hateball: it says to use --ask, but that results in the same error as before | 09:01 |
amichair_ | hateball: so I removed+added the module again, and ran nmcli --ask, and then it did prompt for the password and it works | 09:02 |
amichair_ | so that error message basically means you need to remove and add the module and immediately run with --ask | 09:02 |
amichair_ | how intuitive :-) | 09:02 |
hateball | heh | 09:03 |
hateball | amichair_: well now you have connectivity at least? if the sources are configured correctly I suppose you can continue upgrading | 09:04 |
amichair_ | hateball: yeah, now connected, and back to original problem | 09:04 |
amichair_ | hateball: everything seems up to date, but apt install kubuntu-desktop complains about invalid request (some dependency mismatch or something) | 09:05 |
hateball | amichair_: telepathy stuff? | 09:05 |
amichair_ | hateball: kinfocenter,kwin,plasma-desktop,sddm-theme-beeze all say "but it is not going to be installed" | 09:06 |
acheronuk | apt-get install plasma-desktop ? | 09:08 |
amichair_ | hateball: when I try installing them, most say that plasma-workspace is missing and not going to be installed, and kwin says the same about kwin-x11 | 09:08 |
amichair_ | acheronuk: yeah, that gives the above error message | 09:08 |
acheronuk | apt-get install plasma-workspace then | 09:08 |
hateball | amichair_: had you been using backports ppa? | 09:09 |
amichair_ | hateball: I think so | 09:09 |
amichair_ | hateball: I just tried re-adding it now, but doesn't help | 09:09 |
hateball | amichair_: if you run: apt policy plasma-desktop, where does it point to? | 09:09 |
amichair_ | acheronuk: when I try plasma-workspace, the missing ones are qml-module-org-kde-extensionplugin and libkscreenlocker5 | 09:10 |
hateball | amichair_: I mean does it list a ppa or just the main repos? | 09:10 |
amichair_ | hateball: installed none, candidate has ~ppa1 at end | 09:11 |
ryzokuken | hateball: nothing helped. :( | 09:12 |
ryzokuken | I think it might be an SDDM issue | 09:12 |
acheronuk | amichair_: full version please | 09:12 |
hateball | ryzokuken: could try a "sudo dpkg-reconfigure sddm" I suppose | 09:13 |
=== nms is now known as nms980 | ||
amichair_ | hateball: plasma-workspace: 4:5.9.5.1-0ubuntu0.1~ubuntu17.04~ppa1 | 09:15 |
amichair_ | (I hope with no typos :-) ) | 09:15 |
acheronuk | so you have updates ppa enabled, not backports | 09:17 |
hateball | amichair_: I'd disable the PPAs and make sure you can install the main packages first | 09:19 |
amichair_ | hateball: only *.list files in /etc/apt are used? | 09:21 |
acheronuk | *.list in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ are also used | 09:23 |
hateball | amichair_: if you've used apt-add-repository they'll be in where acheronuk said | 09:24 |
acheronuk | though they should be disabled in you properly do a distribution upgrade with upgrade-manager | 09:25 |
acheronuk | ryzokuken: make sure that you are trying to boot the kernel Nvidia modules built for, and that update-initramfs has been run for that one | 09:28 |
ryzokuken | acheronuk: I'll look for that in GRUB | 09:28 |
ryzokuken | wait, ill try and brb | 09:28 |
amichair | it has a version of kwayland-data from ppa, I'll try forcing it to install the non-ppa one | 09:29 |
amichair | also libkf5activities5 needs downgrade from ppa | 09:33 |
=== dahlia_ is now known as dahlia | ||
ryzokuken | acheronuk: I realized there were two kernel versions | 09:35 |
ryzokuken | 4.10.19 and 4.10.24 | 09:35 |
acheronuk | and........ ? | 09:36 |
ryzokuken | 4.10.19 must be the original one, it ran and nvidia-375 was installed but it probably wasn't running. | 09:36 |
=== Exagone314 is now known as Exagone313 | ||
ryzokuken | 4.10.24 must be the one I modified, and it does not work. | 09:36 |
acheronuk | odd. I was running Nvidia 375 just fine on zesty for a short while. | 09:38 |
ryzokuken | :/ | 09:38 |
ryzokuken | idk what's the problem, but it's strange something like this has happened. | 09:38 |
ryzokuken | I used to use Debian testing (which isn't supposed to be perfectly stable) but such things never happened even back then. | 09:39 |
ryzokuken | acheronuk: what should I do? | 09:39 |
ryzokuken | acheronuk: hateball: you guys there? | 09:41 |
amichair | hateball acheronuk: after downgrading kwayland-data and libkf5activities5, I could install kubuntu-desktop, and it seems to work now | 09:41 |
amichair | thanks a bunch to both of you! | 09:41 |
acheronuk | amichair: good. you had a mismatch of ppa versions somehow. not quite sure how, but all good | 09:42 |
acheronuk | when I tested upgrades that did not occur | 09:42 |
amichair | acheronuk: is that a bug in the repos? i.e. a newer repo should include the same or newer packages as the older repo? | 09:43 |
acheronuk | ryzokuken: well, I would try purging and then re-installing the Nvidia drivers, making sure the modules build for the kernel you want to run | 09:44 |
acheronuk | make sure you are not trying to run a wayland session | 09:44 |
ryzokuken | okay | 09:44 |
ryzokuken | acheronuk: how do I? | 09:44 |
amichair | hmmm... I submitted a patch to software-properties-kde so double-clicking on a source will open its edit box, so you can easily remove all the annoying comments after an upgrade... but it hasn't been picked up yet | 09:44 |
ryzokuken | I usually select in the DM | 09:45 |
ryzokuken | but the DM isn't showing up | 09:45 |
acheronuk | sudo apt-get purge nvidia-375 | 09:45 |
ryzokuken | acheronuk: so I run the bad kernel version, open a tty, purge the driver, reinstall the driver and it'll be fixed? | 09:47 |
acheronuk | amichair: not aware of an issue. those ppa packages were tested, and should have virtually no dep changes | 09:47 |
amichair | acheronuk: if it helps, the bad ppa version were 5.34.something, and the good downgraded ones are 5.31.0-0ubuntu1 | 09:49 |
acheronuk | ryzokuken: I would 'try' that. who knows if it will fix it. black screens with Nvidia and KDE are often a PITA to sort out | 09:49 |
amichair | acheronuk: how can I see what a default clean sources.list should look like? | 09:49 |
ryzokuken | acheronuk: | 09:49 |
ryzokuken | acheronuk: okay ** | 09:49 |
ryzokuken | brb | 09:49 |

acheronuk | not sure it ever has on KDE | 10:03 |
* acheronuk has never seen it | 10:03 | |
ryzokuken | I have seen it once, but maybe it does not show up now | 10:03 |
ryzokuken | acheronuk: I don't think it's a problem. | 10:05 |
ryzokuken | although it does a great job by making it clear that the nvidia GPU is in use | 10:05 |
acheronuk | oh, yes, you have a hybrid. | 10:06 |
acheronuk | I don't and don't install any of the supporting stuff | 10:06 |
ryzokuken | yeah :P | 10:07 |
ryzokuken | maybe it only shows up on hybrid cards? | 10:07 |
hateball | ryzokuken: it should be quite clear in the prime settings in nvidia-settings also | 10:11 |
hateball | which card is in use, that is | 10:11 |
ryzokuken | hateball: it is. | 10:12 |
ryzokuken | which is why I said that it isn't really a problem. | 10:12 |
ryzokuken | but I checked in the settings, I have an option called "display status bar" enabled, so it *should* work | 10:13 |
hateball | ryzokuken: do you have like a blank icon in the tray? | 10:14 |
hateball | or no icon at all | 10:14 |
hateball | well, I should say entry | 10:14 |
ryzokuken | hateball: nope, no icon on the lines of "nvidia" or "intel" | 11:06 |
ryzokuken | maybe it'll be there when I restart? | 11:07 |
BluesKaj | Hiyas all | 11:11 |
ryzokuken | guys, I am having a few more issues. | 12:28 |
ryzokuken | primarily with KDE's theming engine. No wonder I never really tried changing themes in KDE in the past | 12:28 |
ryzokuken | I tried to install Arc-KDE, but the theme application is kinda patchy. | 12:29 |
ryzokuken | I mean, it feels like it didn't get applied *everywhere* | 12:29 |
ryzokuken | where do I apply a theme so that it becomes the default for all other options? (eg: I don't really want to choose window decorations and 99 other things manually, I just want to set *everything* to theme "X". | 12:30 |
ryzokuken | plus, applications keep crashing :/ | 12:30 |
ryzokuken | never had this kind of problems with Ubuntu, Mint or even Debian before (had a few minor hiccups with Arch) :( | 12:31 |
hateball | the look and feel thing is a WIP afaik | 12:32 |
ryzokuken | really? I thought the desktop environment was kinda old. | 12:33 |
ryzokuken | and well developed. I mean, most people hail KDE to be the best developed environment out there. | 12:34 |
hateball | KDE 3.5, 4, and Plasma 5 are quite different tho | 12:36 |
ryzokuken | I get it. | 12:36 |
ryzokuken | Although, Plasma 5 is on 5.9 (for me atleast) | 12:37 |
ryzokuken | so that's quite some versions. | 12:37 |
hateball | Yep | 12:38 |
hateball | But look&feel is new-ish still | 12:38 |
ryzokuken | I get it. | 12:40 |
ryzokuken | Still looks great, though. | 12:40 |

oerheks | i use grep for that > grep -R "text " . | 12:56 |
kubiak_ | oh, i thought something like find . -name "*.php" | xargs grep -il "TEXT" would help me... | 12:56 |
kubiak_ | I've gotten this far, that works with utf-8 characters, but it does not work with ANSI encoded files... | 12:58 |
kubiak_ | i've also tried find . -name "*.php" | LC_ALL=C xargs grep -il "TEXT_TO_FIND" but no luck... | 12:58 |
kubiak_ | so here i am... : - ) | 12:59 |
kubiak_ | oh... now i see my mistake, i should have asked how to use "grep" to do that... | 13:00 |
kubiak_ | *shy* | 13:00 |
oerheks | i was looking about what is so special about ansi .. | 13:01 |
oerheks | have fun! | 13:01 |
kubiak_ | thnx! | 13:05 |

EdgyMC_69 | Hi. I'm preparing for a test on basic IT stuff and one of the tasks from the previous year asks to create a second root account. I've read something about it and it appears that there's no way to do it. The root account has uid and gid set to 0 but there can't be two account with the same uid. Is it correct? | 13:40 |
=== jayhunold is now known as jhunold | ||
lordievader | That is correct. | 13:53 |
lordievader | There is no possibility of a second root account. | 13:54 |
lordievader | However, throwing users in the sudo group effectively does the same thing. | 13:54 |
lordievader | I suggest you read the documentation of sudo. | 13:54 |
EdgyMC_69 | lordievader: but they'd have to use sudo before each command | 14:08 |
lordievader | True, or use sudo -i to get a root shell. | 14:08 |
EdgyMC_69 | o | 14:08 |
EdgyMC_69 | TIL. Thanks. | 14:08 |
EvilRoey | hello | 15:02 |
EvilRoey | does anyone here use ZSSH? | 15:02 |
EvilRoey | I keep getting this error (even on 17.04): https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25138596/zssh-cant-start-and-shows-out-of-ptys-when-start | 15:03 |
EvilRoey | which is apparently this error: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=769366 | 15:03 |
ubottu | Debian bug 769366 in zssh "zssh won't start: "out of pty's"" [Important,Open] | 15:03 |
EvilRoey | which has not been closed yet | 15:03 |
EvilRoey | they say a recompile works though | 15:03 |
EvilRoey | How do I apt-get compile this? | 15:03 |
EvilRoey | lordievader: ^ | 15:03 |
lordievader | Download the source and build a package, apt does not do the second step. | 15:04 |
lordievader | Dpkg does. | 15:04 |
EvilRoey | lordievader: hmm ok | 15:21 |
EvilRoey | how do I do this? | 15:21 |
EvilRoey | lordievader: I get this error in the "debuild" step: https://pastebin.com/8SQTSFq7 | 15:30 |
lordievader | EvilRoey: read the error... You probably want to build it as root. | 15:52 |
EvilRoey | lordievader: ok, hah, that worked | 15:56 |
EvilRoey | thanks!!!! | 15:58 |
EvilRoey | and yes a recompile was what was needed. | 15:58 |
harklark | Hi, if a program in my autostart fails to load (latte-dock in this case) is there a log file somewhere of what went wrong? | 16:49 |
aedigital | maybe .xsessions-errors | 16:53 |
aedigital | ~/.xsessions-errors | 16:54 |
harklark | ill take a look thanks | 16:55 |
aedigital | k | 16:55 |
harklark | seems like I don't have that folder | 16:55 |
harklark | oh wait i see it now | 16:56 |
harklark | file not a folder :) | 16:57 |
harklark | latte-dock finished with exit code 11 | 16:58 |
harklark | I have a lead! | 16:58 |
harklark | thanks for your help | 16:58 |
tms- | After couple of days of headaches, this is towards any KDE developer right here : please write software that does not suck, thank you. | 17:10 |
tms- | Pardon the rudeness, couldn't handle it anymore | 17:11 |
BluesKaj | tms-, wrong chat, try #kubuntu-devel with your complaint, but be more specific if you intend to ask for support here.or there | 17:16 |
tms- | Thanks | 17:17 |
IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> kde developers would be in #kde-devel or #plasma | 17:25 |
mparillo_ | tms-: And the KDE Devels would probably prefer well-written bugs.kde.org anyway. | 17:29 |

tomtom123 | Hey all, just had the following issue, after installing updates yesterday, my graphic session would not start, leaving me in front of a black screen and only the tty sessions would work. running startx did not help. I had to completely remove the nvidia driver and rollback to nouveau to get it working. Anybody know of any issue with the recent upda | 21:39 |
tomtom123 | tes and nvidia drivers or graphic server? | 21:39 |
ikonia | if X doesn't start why do you run "startx" ??? how is that going to help | 21:39 |
ikonia | why not read the X org log and see what the problem is | 21:39 |
ikonia | more so before tainting any logs | 21:39 |
mparillo_ | Question: Do we still startx or do we systemctl restart sddm.service | 21:40 |
ikonia | the xorg service is launched via the greeter, which is systemctl | 21:41 |
tomtom123 | yep i did run startx... to see if it would actually start | 21:42 |
ikonia | but you know it wouldn't start | 21:42 |
ikonia | or it would have started at boot | 21:42 |
tomtom123 | yep, but how do you know if it didnt start because of a config issue, a timing conflict, etc... or if it is just broken somewhere? | 21:44 |
ikonia | tomtom123: you read the log | 21:44 |
ikonia | and if it's a config issue, or something broken, randomly typing startx won't fix it | 21:44 |
tomtom123 | no but at least it would let me use the computer in graphic mode... and then read the log :) | 21:45 |
ikonia | no you wouldn't | 21:46 |
ikonia | as it won't start....we already established that | 21:46 |
tomtom123 | anyways, nothing much in the xorg.log.old... | 21:50 |
tomtom123 | only thing I can find looks more like information than error, a few lines saying NVIDIA(GPU-0): Display (CMN (DFP-0)) does not support NVIDIA 3D Vision | 21:52 |
