IrcsomeBot<DGUERRERO> @TBotNik__, sorry to jump in so late, as valorie said, AFAIK, is very improbable MetroPCS installed something simply by connecting to their hotspot, did you tried to clean browser(s) cache and all that stuff? also checked proxy configuration?01:17
IrcsomeBot<DGUERRERO> @TBotNik__, maybe your friend isn't a good friend and installed something in your machine? the most vulnerable security point is the layer 8!01:21

forcereconGood morning..08:41
forcereconI am having a tough time getting vmware tools to work properly in my Kubuntu session.. Its installed, just not working.. and where is the setting for resolution08:42
lordievaderforcerecon: Systemsettings -> Display and Monitor -> Displays, to change the resolution.08:43
forcereconahh.. I had to scroll down.. thanks.. did not see it since I can't get vmware tools to work properly, but at least now I can work on it.. thanks08:45
forcereconthis is odd, in 17 if I go su - The password is incorrect.. is there a default su password out there08:50
lordievaderforcerecon: root has no password.08:54
lordievaderUse sudo for that.08:54
lordievader!sudo08:54
ubottusudo 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/fixsudo08:54
forcereconI am seeing some really long connection times to us.archive.ubuntu.com almost always over 5 minutes.. is this common09:05
lordievaderYou might want to switch to another mirror.09:06
forcereconworks like a charm.. thanks lordievader09:16
forcereconhave a great day!09:16

BluesKajHi folks10:00
forcereconHello BluesKaj10:27
BluesKaj'Morning forcerecon10:39
forcereconyou sleep in today ;)10:43
forcereconis there a list of current issues with the 17.x release?10:44
BluesKajno, it's 6:45AM here, i was up at $AM10:45
BluesKaj5AM -)10:46
forcereconheh... I had to change the resolution for kubuntu as a guest OS.. no matter what I do I cannot get vmware tools to work.. it is all installed.. it just will not respond.. but I do like the interface of kubuntu..10:47
forcereconhad to change repo as well.. the us.archive was taking way to long to update.. over 5 minutes10:47
hateballforcerecon: how did you install tools?10:47
hateballforcerecon: it's recommended you use open-vm-tools and not vmwares10:48
BluesKaj17.04 ? not that i'm aware, vmware isn't an ordinary VM installation10:48
forcereconwell I try it the normal way first.. since it was consistently greyed out.. I tried sudo apt-get install open-vm-tools.. that worked but needed more packages so I added desktop10:48
forcereconstill nothing10:48
hateballforcerecon: and is 17.04 supported in... whatever VmWare product you use10:49
forcereconthe interface seems to be stuck in an upgrading tools mode, greyed out..  vmware player... I cannot see why it would not be.. I have almost 10 different OS's installed in vmware and Kubuntu is the only one that I cannot get to work.. I just changed the resolution to 800x600 and that gets me through.. but I would like to see it work at some point10:50
forcereconI am in the kubuntu forums atm seeing whats going on there10:51
forcereconseems to be a potential thing - https://www.kubuntuforums.net/showthread.php/71410-Screen-Resolution-Problem?highlight=vmware10:52
forcereconI hate when you find a question that is the exact same thing you are seeing and there is no solution posted.. lol..  gotta keep looking10:59
forcereconhttps://askubuntu.com/questions/410188/why-do-vmware-tools-not-let-me-enlarge-my-screen10:59
mparilloforcerecon: From a commandline on the guest, I used to use sudo apt update && sudo apt install open-vm-tools-desktop -y11:01
forcereconI already did both and desktop..  but I will run the command, see what happens11:05
mparilloAnd then I would restart my VM.11:05
forcereconI can see what it is doing now.. it is connecting over ipv611:14
forcereconand the address is changing every few minutes..11:15
forcerecon0% [Connecting to security.ubuntu.com (2001:67c:1562::16)]11:16
forcereconit did not update anything, but after I applied a new desktop ARC, which failed to load well, then uninstalled and then went back to breeze with a reboot.. now vmware tools are working.. eh.. Im happy..11:29
forcereconthanks for all your patience :)11:29
Unit193Could try forcing IPv4 and see if that does better.11:33

forcereconHow in kubuntu do you make it so that when you open a window like system settings that when you expand it and move it, it will open at that size and that location in the future11:42
BluesKajforcerecon, what do you mean by location ?11:43
forcereconwhere I move it to on the screen.. all of the (are we calling them windows) open top left corner at a specific size.  I want it larger and in the middle of the screen where I put it.11:44
forcereconeach time I open it I want it to be where I put it on the screen at the size I made it11:45
forcereconmake sense?11:45
BluesKajin kde there virtual desktops, activities, activities with VDs11:45
BluesKajthere are11:45
BluesKajfor example I use 6 virtual desktops and aeach one has an app assigned to it11:46
forcereconI only have one VD.. on that VD when I open settings it is always at the top left.11:47
forcereconis there a way to make it open in the middle of the screen or at a location of my choice on the 1 VD11:48
BluesKajfor the size , right click on the tirlebar>more actions>special application settings. choose position and size, do this after youve made it the size and position you prefer11:49
forcereconif I decided to go to Kubuntu and since I have 3 monitors, I want things to open on the monitors I choose, not always on the main monitor at the top left.. oooooh okay let me try that11:50
BluesKajon each application11:50
forcereconyahoo.. that works.. thanks so much11:51
forcereconyou are brilliant!11:51
BluesKajdid youi choose remember?11:51
forcereconyes, yes I did11:51
BluesKajok11:52
BluesKajback in the plasma4 days we could have different background for each VD , now one has to the actitvities for that which is much clunkier11:53
BluesKajuse activities11:53
forcereconunderstood.. thanks for explaining..11:54
BluesKajbut, it is an option if you feel the need11:54
forcereconeconomy.canonical.com is in the UK?12:05

forcereconhttp://i.imgur.com/epAHKru.png - really liking this kubuntu12:18
forcereconmode +R really works I guess I saw nothing..12:48
oerheksthat dude has been banned so many times, i hope the ban sticks for now.12:49
forcereconwas there spam?12:51
BluesKajhe keeps trying, not realizing changing his nick doesn't change his IP12:51
forcereconlately things have been good with +R as I have not gotten any spam or crap12:52
forcereconso he has the ability to create a spam bot, but not the ability to utilize a VPN12:52
forcereconodd12:52
forcereconwhere in kubuntu is the ability to hide icons on the desktop.. I don't need to see Trash12:55
BluesKajjust right click and remove12:55
forcereconthere is no remove option12:56
BluesKajno remove this icon?12:57
oerheksjust drag it to thrash ..?12:57
forcereconno.. that was first thing I tried.. Open Cut Copy Rename Empty and some others..12:58
BluesKajforcerecon, right click on the desktop>configure desktop>layout=desktop, then try removing the icon13:01
BluesKajI never cared for folder view13:02
forcereconwhen you do that, it dissapears on its own and so does the HOME13:02
forcereconI wanted to keep the HOME..13:02
forcereconI am going through all the settings one at  time.. has to be some place..13:02
BluesKaji just use  quick launch in the panel and copy apps to that , helps keep the desktop unclutterd13:03
hateballforcerecon: you need to unlock widgets13:04
forcereconokay so in folder view you can go to location13:04
hateballforcerecon: then just hover over said widget and a menu appears, lets you remove it13:04
hateballrightclick the desktop area and unlock widgets, in case they are not13:05
forcereconthen you have the options to show desktop folders, show files, Show a place or Specify a folder..13:05
forcereconall good now13:05
forcereconConfigure Desktop > Location13:05
forcereconnice13:05
forcereconwow..  integrated KDE Menu Editor.. sweet13:07

JonelethIrenicusanyone know how to get kio-gdrive in 16.04?15:15
oerheksjust drag it to thrash ..?15:16
oerheksoops15:16
oerheksJonelethIrenicus, build it from source ? https://community.kde.org/KIO_GDrive15:18
JonelethIrenicusoerheks: i think it might be too complicated for me15:18
JonelethIrenicuswould take alot of time to figure out everything15:19
oerheksJonelethIrenicus, ask them to provide kubuntu/neon debs?15:20
JonelethIrenicusi think it is in the repo for neon but not kubuntu unfortunately15:20
oerheksi thought neon got google drive integration already15:20
JonelethIrenicusi didn't go with neon because i was worried about compatability with other projects I do have to build15:21
oerheks,oh, you know how to build15:22
JonelethIrenicusyeah but building KDE stuff is a whole different ball of wax15:23
=== toscalix_ is now known as toscalix
JonelethIrenicusim just worried to install KDE stuff and ruin everything since I haven't done enough research on the whole process15:25
oerheksi don't know that kio stuff, so i cannot help you.15:27
JonelethIrenicusoerheks: is all good thanks15:27
JonelethIrenicusrclone looks simple enough or just wait for a proper release on kubuntu on the next LTS or something15:28
BluesKajwe don't get many queries about kio-gdrive editing here15:31
