| BluesKaj | Hi folks | 12:33 |
| zorin-os | does anyone know what color code this is? (top half) http://imgur.com/a/IPSPK cus it isnt 36, 96, 34, or 94 | 12:56 |
| john85 | hi :) | 13:17 |
| john85 | quick question, trying to install restricted extras for Kubuntu, i have go to the point where it comes up with the blue license agreement, but cant figure out how to "OK" it | 13:20 |
| john85 | anyone there? | 13:30 |
| BluesKaj | john85, enter | 13:34 |
| john85 | hi BluesKaj, done that, does nothing | 13:35 |
| BluesKaj | john85, ok paste a sceeenshot | 13:36 |
| john85 | where to? | 13:36 |
| BluesKaj | imagebin | 13:36 |
| BluesKaj | then post the resultanr URL here | 13:37 |
| john85 | not the greatest im afraid....https://imagebin.ca/v/3YmQz1LK6tKS | 13:39 |
| genii | tab key and enter key | 13:40 |
| john85 | thanks :) | 13:40 |
| genii | np | 13:41 |
| john85 | BluesKaj, this is my last resort to getting Amarok to work | 13:41 |
| BluesKaj | odd I haven't seen that come in yrs | 13:41 |
| BluesKaj | come up | 13:42 |
| john85 | VLC is ok, but it messed up with my library | 13:43 |
| BluesKaj | haven't installed restricted extras since I don't seem to need them | 13:43 |
| john85 | i have a lot of albums by various artists, and VLC just put them all together, its a nightmare trying to find what i want | 13:44 |
| BluesKaj | like I said before I don't trust players to organize my libraray anymore , nothing but trouble | 13:44 |
| john85 | dont usually cause me any trouble..but each MP obviously deals with music libraries differently, and VLC is just one which doesnt do it for me | 13:46 |
| john85 | ok, we are done, time to try Amarok again | 13:47 |
| john85 | Oh you have no idea how happy i am at the moment :) | 13:47 |
| john85 | by we are ddone i meant installation is done | 13:48 |
| john85 | ok cool, so now i have muon and Amarok up and running im happy and back to where i was with 16.04 more or less | 13:49 |
| BluesKaj | odd that amarok doesn't contain the mp3 plugin by default and needs the restricted extras to provide it | 13:54 |
| john85 | it feels almost as if i have to relearn everything i spent years teaching myself about computers | 13:55 |
| BluesKaj | john85, it's not computers that are at fault it's the the distribution of software that's mucked up | 13:55 |
| john85 | i know it has something to do with micensing, but if VLC has em, why not Amarok? | 13:56 |
| john85 | ye, its just a pity microsoft got there first | 13:56 |
| BluesKaj | don't think MS has much to do with mp3 inclusion in amarok | 13:57 |
| john85 | it was a general comment | 13:57 |
| john85 | i meant its a pity linux didnt make it as an OS | 13:58 |
| john85 | leeme rephrase that | 13:58 |
| john85 | its a pity linux didnt make it as the mainstream OS for everyone | 13:59 |
| BluesKaj | it did with me, I don't need MS for anything, of course I'm not a gamer, but my attitude is buy an xbox if you want games | 14:00 |
| john85 | the first computer my parents got was a windows PC, so my first introduction to computers after the spectrun was MS | 14:03 |
| john85 | sorry I have to go, need to test some electricals for the shop before I go home :) | 14:05 |
| BluesKaj | well i used MSdos , W3.1, W95 and W98 on the job before I retired, so I'm an old windows guy, but to me it's gone over the edge with W8 to W10 with that silly desktop | 14:06 |
| john85 | speak again soon, hopefully it will be about something other than an issue with my laptop | 14:06 |
| BluesKaj | ok, later | 14:07 |
| john85 | yet win 8 sucked, first thing i installed when i got this laptop was start 8 to bring back the old desktop | 14:07 |

| emma | How can I tell which edition of kubuntu I'm using? | 17:38 |
| Eightynine | Can I find easy to read changelog at KDE site? | 17:46 |
| genii | emma: search for About System off the button and run it, will tell you various information | 17:53 |
| emma | thanks | 17:53 |
| Eightynine | Is that possible to remove older kernels? | 18:29 |
| marco-parillo | I tend to sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade. | 18:35 |
| marco-parillo | When you do, apt will tell you of you have older packages that can safely be removed. Generally they are kernels. | 18:36 |
| marco-parillo | s/you of you/you if you/ | 18:36 |
| marco-parillo | If so, you can sudo apt autoremove | 18:37 |
| Eightynine | Should I add KDE Neon repository for updated Plasma or just wait for update to come in Ubuntu? | 18:39 |
| marco-parillo | If you have already installed Kubuntu, and want to add the KDE Neon repos, it should work. However, it is unsupported, and I would never try that on a machine where downtime would be a problem or you have un-backed-up data. | 18:40 |
| Eightynine | It wants to update hwe kernels and some other packages. It will leave kernel 4.8 too. | 18:41 |
| marco-parillo | https://neon.kde.org/faq#morph-kubuntu | 18:41 |
| Eightynine | Thank you Marco. I will leave Plasma 5.5 | 18:42 |
| marco-parillo | Which version of Kubuntu do you have now? | 18:42 |
| Eightynine | 16.04 LTS | 18:43 |
| marco-parillo | Have you considered adding the Backports PPA? Look at the second half of this news item: https://kubuntu.org/news/latest-round-of-backports-ppa-updates-include-plasma-5-10-2-for-zesty-17-04/ | 18:44 |
| marco-parillo | After you are done, you should have Plasma 5.8.7. See the list of packages here: https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/ubuntu/backports/+index?field.series_filter=xenial | 18:46 |
| Eightynine | Sory, I've been a bit busy. No, I haven't considered. Didn't knew about that. I'll check. | 18:55 |

| renn0xtk9 | trying to install kubunut inside a virtualbox | 19:16 |
| renn0xtk9 | the installer fails | 19:16 |
| renn0xtk9 | is there any particular settings to apply to virtualbox | 19:16 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DGUERRERO> @renn0xtk9, Hi, have you checked the iso's sha256 sum? | 19:36 |
| renn0xtk9 | IrcsomBot DGUERRERO yes and it matches | 19:47 |
| Eightynine | How to make Konsole to look better and make less eye strain? | 19:49 |
| renn0xtk9 | Eightynine Settings/Edit Current Profile/Appearance? | 19:54 |
| renn0xtk9 | I use Green on Black | 19:54 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DGUERRERO> @renn0xtk9, In which step is failing? 9r it's failing after reboot? | 20:43 |
| valorie | renn0xtk9: check the amount of memory you have allocated to that VM | 20:45 |
| valorie | for me, when I don't give it what I consider a huge amount, it just fails with no useful error message | 20:45 |
| valorie | no idea why -- it doesn't use all the memory space I give it | 20:46 |
| renn0xtk9 | valorie 16GB should be enough | 20:52 |
| renn0xtk9 | it is dynamically allocated but still | 20:53 |
| valorie | well, it's been awhile since I set one up | 20:54 |
| valorie | but I was shocked to see how much it wanted | 20:55 |
| valorie | as you say, in the end no difference, since I don't leave them running anyway | 20:55 |
| menace | perhaps the live installer is still broken? | 21:04 |
| menace | :D | 21:04 |
| valorie | menace: in the beta1 at least, all the testers passed it | 21:08 |
| valorie | in 386 and amd64 both | 21:08 |
| menace | renn9xtk9 did not say which version he tried :D | 21:10 |
| valorie | he didn't, and then left | 21:12 |
