[02:46] <AGiantSquidz> Hi, all, trying to contribute to a KDE application. The docs seem to be all over the place. Can I get any guidance for getting my system set up for development?
[02:54] <valorie> AGiantSquidz: what a great nick, btw
[02:54] <valorie> yes, a couple of links will help
[02:56] <AGiantSquidz> valorie: You think it's just a nick *(goes away sobbing, wiping away a tear with a tentacle)*
[02:59] <valorie> lol
[06:24] <lordievader> Good morning
[10:35] <BluesKaj> Hey folks
[10:59] <m_tadeu> hi there....how can I make kubuntu able to login in sddm using my fingerprint?
[11:03] <hateball> m_tadeu: I am not sure that is currently possible
[11:05] <hateball> Googling brings up http://home.ullrich-online.cc/fingerprint/Forum/topic.php?TopicId=546
[11:05] <hateball> Not sure if it's since been fixed however
[11:05] <hateball> SDDM itself claims to still have fingerprint support TODO
[11:18] <m_tadeu> yeah I guess I can't make it work in any way
[12:43] <dougl> good morning folks
[13:45] <dougl> BluesKaj, are you afk... just wanted to say good morning - hope all is well we'll chat tomorrow maybe
[13:46] <BluesKaj> Hi dougl , I'm here
[13:51] <AceKing> I'm having a problem with my laptop this morning. I went to update and I get a message saying I'm out of space. I have a 1 tb drive and my home folder shows 109 gb used. I tracked it down to root/proc folder showing 128 tb. Anyone ever run into this?
[13:51] <dougl> BluesKaj, just reminissing/recalling looking forward to coffee and chatting in the past and thinking of you among others on irc
[13:53] <BluesKaj> AceKing, have you been doing any autoremoves , but 128tb seems like typo
[13:55] <AceKing> BluesKaj: I just tried to do an autoremove. Won't let me do it. I keep getting: No apport report written because the error message indicates a disk full error.
[13:57] <BluesKaj> AceKing, do you have separate / (root) and /home partitions?
[13:57] <AceKing> BluesKaj: I'm in the folder now. At the bottom it shows 234 folders 49 files (128 tb)
[13:57] <AceKing> BluesKaj: No
[13:59] <BluesKaj> that's tib not tb
[14:00] <BluesKaj> look again
[14:00] <AceKing> BluesKaj: I apologize it's tib
[14:00] <BluesKaj> TiB actually
[14:01] <AceKing> yes
[14:01] <dougl> AceKing, did you partition your 1 terabyte dor the - NM BluesKaj is helping I will just watch now that my keyboard is working again
[14:02] <AceKing> dougl: I did an install of 17.04 on a new drive using the whole disk.
[14:02] <dougl> AceKing, BluesKaj I have had df errors and separated /home and /var to thier own partitions - whole disk ok, thank you :)
[14:04] <AceKing> dougl: I just went through the automatic setup. The only thing I chose was encryption. Don't know if that makes a difference
[14:06] <BluesKaj> the disk full error must be coming from somewhere else, can you run, smartcl -a /dev/sdX , X being the dev assigned letter for your / partition
[14:06] <BluesKaj> just to make sure
[14:06] <dougl> AceKing, should not make a differenc but I always rely on passwords and avoid losing data to a misconfigured encryption process (me goofing up)
[14:07] <BluesKaj> smartctl -a /dev/sda most likely ...you might need to install smartmontools
[14:08] <dougl> doesn't 'df' show the culprit?
[14:08] <BluesKaj> df -h might
[14:08]  * dougl is not following - will pay attention quietly
[14:09] <BluesKaj> AceKing, are you on the job or are you a home user
[14:09] <BluesKaj> ?
[14:09] <AceKing> Home user
[14:09] <dougl> kids?
[14:10] <dougl> ... wondering why the encryption
[14:10] <dougl> ... not important tho
[14:10] <AceKing> dougl: I've always encrypted
[14:10] <BluesKaj> then encryption is mostly uncessary unless you're worried about someboady breaking in and stealing your pc ..but a decent password setup is usually secure nough on linux
[14:11] <BluesKaj> enough
[14:11] <dougl> good habit if you have the confidence in it...
[14:12] <dougl> but I just think it ia one more thing to fail of me 'bork'
[14:12] <AceKing> BluesKaj: I have some work stuff on my laptop that has SS numbers and info. In case my laptop is ever stolen, I don't want someone to be able to livecd in and steal the info
[14:12] <dougl> or me bork
[14:13] <AceKing> Using for 10 years and first time I ever ran into this
[14:13] <BluesKaj> encrypting a whole disk is usin sledge hammer on a pin ...encrypt your sensitive data files is a better optoion
[14:14] <AceKing> BluesKaj: True, just easier during setup. But would that have anything to do with the problem I'm having?
[14:15] <BluesKaj> like I suggested run smartcontrols on your disk , to see if it passes
[14:16] <AceKing> BluesKaj: OK, thank you
[15:30] <dougiel> BluesKaj, still here?
[15:33] <BluesKaj> dougiel, yup
[15:39] <dougiel> BluesKaj, I am having trouble with cups and am stuck on what I should google for - when I needed a sounding board I thought you might have a minute or two
[15:40] <BluesKaj> dougiel, sure, fire away ;-)
[15:42] <dougiel> Cups is installed with one printer configured from web interface 192.168.x.x or 127.0.0.1 and when I goto add a second printer it just loops from finishing (NOT) to printer manufacture scolldown and just keeps going through this cycle...
[15:48] <BluesKaj> are you opening cups from system settings>printers or localhost 631?
[15:49] <BluesKaj> for the second prointer , or add printer in cups itself?
[15:51] <BluesKaj> never added a second printer , so I'm on new ground
[15:58] <dougiel> BluesKaj, my second printer is just a copy of the first with different options ie colour instead of monochrome in the default settings so nobody has to fiddle with settings just send to appropriate printer config... this is the way I have always done it up to 14.04 then now trying on 17.04 with cups 2.2.2
[15:58] <dougiel> BluesKaj, can you explain or direct me to "cups itself" ?
[16:00]  * dougiel checks failing memory (brain) but cannot recall ever doing an cups'ing without the web ui
[16:00] <dougiel> any
[16:00] <BluesKaj> system settings>printers, that should open cups on kubuntu
[16:06] <dougiel> Hey, thanks BluesKaj - appreciate the help :) coffee tomorrow? I will share what I learned ;)
[16:06] <dougiel> ttfn
[16:07] <BluesKaj> ok
[20:58] <caleb13321> Hello, I just built a new computer with a Ryzen 1600 and an Asus Prime x370 Pro motherboard. The manufacture site doesn't seem to include drivers for linux, should I be fine?
[20:58] <caleb13321> manufacture site = asus
[20:59] <ikonia> basic funtionality should be fine
[21:00] <caleb13321> Well, I had a few issues with the board before I installed the drivers on Windows
[21:00] <caleb13321> Although those issues largely stemmed from Windows' terrible USB 3 drivers
[21:01] <oerheks> caleb13321, check the vendors site for an UEFI bios update first, that might save some headache
[21:01] <ikonia> thats a good bit of advice
[21:02] <caleb13321> Yeah, I updated the BIOS the other day. With the old BIOS I couldn't install the GPU in the first PCI-E slot.
[21:02] <oerheks> keep checking, there is a lot of development going on with Ryzen.
[21:03] <oerheks> once/month will do, i follow development and bugs too
[21:05] <caleb13321> Yeah, my problems weren't to severe, once I had the updated BIOS and drivers everything was smooth sailing
[21:07] <caleb13321> I just don't want to end up installing a boot manager if Linux doesn't run too well. The BIOS post already adds +5 seconds to my boot compared to my old computer.
[22:03] <Ktop> Good afternoon everyone, would anyone be able to tell me how I could mount (as read only of course) an unsafely shut down NTFS disk
[22:03] <Ktop> ?
[22:06] <Ktop> Actually, back later, wanna double check something
[23:18] <jimtendo> Hi guys, anyone else having issues with QtCreator ending up non-responsive when opening .qml files? Using Kubuntu 17.04+Backports... QtCreator version is 4.1.0 built on Qt 5.7.1. Cannot find anyone else having problems on Google (other cases were from years ago) and am wondering if this could be specific to my machine.
[23:33] <johnflux2> When I boot up, it freezes at a black screen for approximately 10 minutes
[23:34] <johnflux2> going to a console I see glxinfo 100% cpu
[23:34] <johnflux2> any ideas what is going on?
[23:35] <johnflux2> dmesg says:   [  242.652699] INFO: task kworker/4:0:35 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
