| anqxyr | ok, so I tried googling this for a bit, couldn't find anything, so maybe someone here can help me | 06:52 |
|---|---|---|
| anqxyr | when the headphones are plugged in, I get sound both from speakers and from the headphones | 06:53 |
| anqxyr | I can go to alsamixer, and manually turn down the "front" sound to zero, and that works | 06:53 |
| anqxyr | but it doesn't work automatically, despite the "auto-mute mod" option being enabled | 06:54 |
| anqxyr | and the multimedia keys on the keyboard are tied to speakers no matter what | 06:54 |
| anqxyr | kubuntu 17.04, new pc, new install, it's been like that from the start | 06:55 |

| hateball | anqxyr: has this worked with a different OS at some point? | 07:12 |
| hateball | there's a hardware switch that is supposed to trigger this, so I am thinking if that is simply... not working | 07:12 |
| anqxyr | it's never worked on this pc. It's a used pc too, I just recently bought it | 07:13 |
| anqxyr | *never worked for me | 07:14 |
| hateball | anqxyr: Do you have a different pair of headphones to test with? | 07:15 |
| anqxyr | yup, let me try | 07:15 |
| anqxyr | yeah, no change | 07:16 |
| anqxyr | if it's a hardware issue, just having a script that would adjust the volumes and binding it to a hotkey would work for me | 07:17 |
| anqxyr | but alsamixer doesn't have any args to directly adjust the volume, that I could tell | 07:17 |
| hateball | It could also be a matter of needing to supply module options for snd-hda-intel | 07:17 |
| anqxyr | where should I look for for something like that? | 07:17 |
| hateball | which is what I assume you have | 07:17 |
| hateball | What is the model of the laptop (?) ? | 07:17 |
| hateball | And if you could !paste the output of "lspci" | 07:18 |
| anqxyr | it's a desktop pc, assembled from used parts from all over the place | 07:18 |
| hateball | right | 07:18 |
| hateball | still, it has some chipset :) | 07:18 |
| anqxyr | https://pastebin.com/SgjWPZTJ | 07:19 |
| hateball | anqxyr: could you run it with "lspci -nv" instead? | 07:20 |
| anqxyr | sure thing | 07:20 |
| anqxyr | https://pastebin.com/rRmZngAw | 07:21 |
| anqxyr | uh, should probably rerun this as root? looking at all these access denied | 07:21 |
| anqxyr | https://pastebin.com/9vyxdnab | 07:22 |
| hateball | anqxyr: interesting, googling "8086:1c20 snd_hda_intel" gives as first hit http://mailman.alsa-project.org/pipermail/alsa-devel/2014-November/083932.html | 07:24 |
| hateball | lets see what we can make of this | 07:24 |
| hateball | anqxyr: long shot but... uh you could try "echo "options snd-hda-intel model=auto" |sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/snd-hda-intel.conf" | 07:31 |
| hateball | anqxyr: and then reboot, see if that automatigically solves it. otherwise remove the file /etc/modprobe.d/snd-hda-intel.conf so it doesnt mess with anything else | 07:32 |
| anqxyr | k, let me reboot | 07:33 |
| anqxyr | nah, no luck | 07:34 |
| hateball | could be a different model option that works tho, but it's harder since this is a frankenbuild | 07:35 |
| anqxyr | is there any pure-cli volume control utility? I'd be ok with just hotkeying a script to fix the volumes | 07:35 |
| anqxyr | ok, google tells me that the answer is amixer | 07:36 |
| hateball | anqxyr: that's for pure alsa, but you have by default pulseaudio | 07:37 |
| anqxyr | I'll probably go looking in that direction, it seems like it's the one most likely to bear fruit | 07:37 |
| hateball | which alsa goes through | 07:37 |
| hateball | so you can use pactl for that | 07:37 |
| anqxyr | thanks, I'll try that too. Idk if that'll work, alsamixer is the only thing that managed to adjust volumes independently so far | 07:38 |
| anqxyr | kubuntu's gui volume control thing uses pulseaudio, I think, and it's completely blind to headphones | 07:38 |
| anqxyr | either way, huge thanks for all your help | 07:40 |

| ForceRecon | is there an update command you can do from terminal in kubuntu to get all updates or do you need to click on the updates icon? I see an update but I cannot do it from the Updates Discover | 09:51 |
| acheronuk | ForceRecon: sudo apt full-upgrade | 09:52 |
| ForceRecon | should you do a sudo apt-get update first or sudo apt-get update && full-upgrade? | 09:53 |
| acheronuk | or to refresh the repos 1st 'sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade' | 09:53 |

| ForceRecon | when will 17.10 be available for download with non free and firmware so that I can once again see if it will work on 3 monitors? | 09:56 |
| ForceRecon | and when it is, where can I download it from since those seem to be off the beaten path | 09:56 |
| hateball | !artful | 10:06 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 17.10 (Artful Aardvark) will be the 27th release of Ubuntu. It is due to be released in October 2017. Discussion in #ubuntu+1 | 10:06 |
| hateball | ForceRecon: What nonfree driver do you require? nvidia? | 10:06 |
| === karab666 is now known as karab44 | ||
| ForceRecon | good question.. not sure with my setup what exactly I am missing but generally if I try and install things that are just downloads from the main websites for distro, they tend not to work. I usually don't get any video or the machine just does not boot to anything past the grub option chosen.. so I would gather it is nvidia | 10:09 |
| ForceRecon | might be bluetooth too.. | 10:09 |
| ForceRecon | chances are there are a couple more items in there that I have no clue about | 10:09 |
| hateball | ForceRecon: do you currently have Kubuntu installed? | 10:11 |
| ForceRecon | currently I run kubuntu in a vmware session and it is perfect.. just wish it would work that way outside of the vmware guest os session | 10:11 |
| hateball | Right | 10:11 |
| hateball | If you have nvidia hardware, the binary blob will never be distributed on the installation media, and you'll need to use the 'nomodeset' kernel parameter to get a display going | 10:11 |
| ForceRecon | on a side note anyone here running steam on kubuntu.. I do play one game linux port and would like to make sure after getting kubuntu to work that that works as well. | 10:12 |
| hateball | Then you can install, and have the installer grab restricted drivers as needed during runtime | 10:12 |
| hateball | ForceRecon: I have over 300 games for linux in my Steam library | 10:12 |
| ForceRecon | hateball: is there some place i can read on that.. problem is that once I start the installation and something goes wrong I have no way to ask for help since machine is not running | 10:13 |
| hateball | !nomodeset | ForceRecon | 10:13 |
| ubottu | ForceRecon: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 10:13 |
| ForceRecon | awesome thanks! | 10:13 |
| hateball | basically you boot to live-grub, press... uh... F6? to edit the bootline, append nomodeset to it | 10:14 |
| ForceRecon | just read that all.. seems easy enough.. | 10:19 |
| ForceRecon | thanks | 10:19 |
| ForceRecon | I guess I need to wait till the 27th though to get my hands on a dvd | 10:20 |
| ForceRecon | damn now I want to try! lol | 10:20 |
| hateball | Well that's up to you, you can download a nightly ISO right now | 10:21 |
| hateball | Tho it's not officially supported until it is officially released | 10:21 |
| ForceRecon | Ill gladly take a link if you can get one.. I was looking online for nightly iso kubuntu but did not find anything | 10:22 |
| hateball | ForceRecon: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/daily-live/current/ | 10:23 |
| hateball | Again, this is not supported here tho, #ubuntu+1 for that until official release | 10:23 |
| ForceRecon | you got it.. thanks! | 10:25 |
| ForceRecon | is there a decent backup software for linux that backs up to a zip file or a location where you can see the full directory structure real time? | 10:49 |
| ForceRecon | maybe some type of complete sync to a folder on a server on your local lan? | 10:49 |
| hateball | ForceRecon: for user data or your entire system? | 10:50 |
| ForceRecon | I would prefer to just backup the entire system if possible so I don't miss anything | 10:50 |
| ForceRecon | I never really cared for images because then to open them you have to install the software and yada yada.. | 10:51 |
| ForceRecon | I just want a complete sync of the entire system to a folder | 10:51 |
| ForceRecon | that would be great | 10:51 |
| ForceRecon | this simple backup looks okay | 10:52 |
| hateball | And you want this to be an online-backup? | 10:52 |
| ForceRecon | well.. local lan server with 6TB of space.. this way when I install kubuntu I will just map to that share and be able to see all my data.. pick what I want to bring back | 10:53 |
| hateball | We use UrBackup here at work, for backup of physical machines | 10:53 |
| ForceRecon | can you see the folder structure? or do you need to do something special to uncompress it and then see it once its backed up | 10:54 |
| hateball | ForceRecon: You can restore individual files etc. However it is not in *Ubuntu repos and as such not supported here | 10:55 |

| Mrokii | Hi. I'm not sure if this is a problem directly related to Kubuntu... I installed the "ScreenSaver" app from within "Discover". However, when I try to configure it, in the main section of the window (where the graphical effects should be sampled, there's only a message saying "Not Installed". That seems to happen with every selectable screensaver-effect. Any ideas what the problem could be? | 12:09 |
| lordievader | Good afternoon | 12:10 |
| BluesKaj | Hey folks | 12:10 |
| Mrokii | Okay, I got it working now. However there's another problem. The GLSlideshow-screensaver doesn't change images. It looks as if it does some effect to switch images, but it's always the same image that is displayed. | 12:19 |
| lordievader | IIRC you needed to set a source dir somewhere else for that. | 12:20 |
| lordievader | If it is part of xscreensaver there was some xscreensaver-setup utility. (Can't remember the exact naming) | 12:20 |
| Mrokii | lordievader: I did that. The Slideshow choses one of the images from the folder randomly, but never changes to another image, always displaying the one chosen initially. | 12:22 |
| lordievader | Oh, err. There are no interval settings? | 12:23 |
| Mrokii | lordievader: There is indeed a setup-window where on can chose the path and set some parameters. This part works, as it takes an image from the folder I chose. | 12:23 |
| Mrokii | lordievader: There are, and the interval itself seems to work. There is some effect that suggest that another image will be displayed, but the image never really changes. | 12:23 |
| ForceRecon | when I install kubuntu on a drive that is encrypted will the installer just wipe out the drive and reencrypt it or do you need to do something special before hand | 12:24 |
| lordievader | Hmm, then I don't really know. What you could do is try to launch the screensaver manually in a Konsole, that might throw some error. | 12:25 |
| lordievader | Mrokii: ^ | 12:25 |
| Mrokii | lordievader: It seems to do some fading-effect every few seconds but the image never changes. | 12:25 |
| Mrokii | lordievader: Yeah, I guess I'll try that. | 12:25 |
| lordievader | ForceRecon: It will do whatever you tell it to do. | 12:25 |
| ForceRecon | just was not sure if the drive would tell you.. hey no space for you here I am already encrypted and now you are stuck with me.. :) lol.. pre dive measures | 12:26 |
| lordievader | Most OS'es nowaday tell you if something is in use or not. | 12:28 |
| ForceRecon | do you guys actually partition your drives any special way? I just usually do the entire disk and let the OS decide on a swap, home, os partition.. Is there ultimately a better way of doing it? | 12:29 |
| lordievader | For me it depends on the machine, but I usually make a full lvm pv or pv+luks partition of the drive. | 12:30 |
| lordievader | Then i make partitions as I see fit. | 12:30 |
| ForceRecon | 46k of 84k files completed.. moving along nicely | 12:48 |
| ForceRecon | wireless ac works well in debian.. hows it doing in kubuntu? good throughput | 12:48 |
| BluesKaj | Mrokii, seems you may need to add each image to the slideshow in desktop settings, not the folder | 12:48 |
| Mrokii | BluesKaj: I'll try that, thanks. | 12:49 |
| ForceRecon | Morning BluesKaj, thanks for turning me onto Kubuntu, really enjoying it.. | 12:49 |
| Mrokii | BluesKaj: I don't think that's possibly. The settings-window only lets me chose folders, not individual files. | 12:51 |
| hateball | ForceRecon: I use an Intel 7260 AC card in my desktop, it's flawless | 12:51 |
| ForceRecon | 06:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Limited BCM4352 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter (rev 03) | 12:52 |
| hateball | ForceRecon: apart from a tiny bug in the intel firmware that causes dropped packets when network-manager checks for better APs for roaming | 12:52 |
| BluesKaj | Mrokii, yes I see now , never tried the slideshow before, so I'm checking it out to see if it works here | 12:52 |
| hateball | so... that may or may not be a problem for you | 12:52 |
| BluesKaj | Mrokii, and it it's working | 12:52 |
| Mrokii | BluesKaj: That's really weird. It doesn't work here and it wasn't working on a friends' Kubuntu either. The same effect on both systems. | 12:53 |
| === EvilClown[away] is now known as EvilClown | ||
| BluesKaj | Mrokii, well i'm testing Kubuntu Artful 17.10, if you upgrade yor release after it's available officially that will probly fix it, ...kind of drastic but I can't recreate the bug | 12:55 |
| Mrokii | BluesKaj: That's a bit drastic indeed. But I'm probably upgrading anyway, when it's available. | 12:56 |
| Mrokii | I'm still on 17.04 | 12:56 |
| BluesKaj | it should be available this thursday | 12:57 |

| BluesKaj | did you remove the ppa that you used to install 5..11 ? | 19:29 |

| BluesKaj | then once you get a desktop go to https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/ubuntu/staging-plasma and add the ppa to your sources, then once 5.11 is installed immediately remove it from you /etc/apt/sources.list.d file and your package manager or before the next update/upgrade | 20:03 |

| IrcsomeBot | <Silenoz> Ok, once thank you for the help and the link, I'll look to see if I can fix the problem now. If not, I'll sign up again :) | 20:03 |
| kubi | is there a way to install kubuntu from its live session? | 20:05 |
| clivejo | there should be, is there installer now in the menu? | 20:06 |
| clivejo | not | 20:06 |

| acheronuk | otherwise you would see: https://i.imgur.com/DdGOiJ9.png | 20:18 |
| kubi | my appologies! | 20:19 |
| acheronuk | lol. we've all done that most likely! | 20:19 |
| acheronuk | at one point or another | 20:19 |
| ForceRecon | freaking copy from home to server took a dump | 20:21 |
| ForceRecon | starting over.. crazy it does not say, hey things exist.. overwrite or not | 20:21 |
| ForceRecon | just doing its thing | 20:21 |
| ForceRecon | Fcked Up | 20:21 |
| ForceRecon | I really hate when you copy something that you have no freaking idea what is happening | 20:22 |
| ForceRecon | maybe something they should add.. this is not KUBUNTU.. just copying in general | 20:22 |
| clivejo | ??? | 20:23 |
| valorie | ForceRecon: use rysnc then | 20:24 |
| ForceRecon | I want to wipe my machine.. decided to copy all data from home.. to 6TB local lan server.. took a dump.. restarted.. mentions nothing about duplicates.. just redoing it.. | 20:24 |
| valorie | rsync copies one file at a time, and ensures it is bit-correct before moving to the next | 20:25 |
| ForceRecon | I think I need to learn c or python and create a simple gdamn backup program that goes in the repository and when it askes you where to put the files it KNOWS to include shares.. | 20:25 |
| ForceRecon | freaking backup programs are garbage.. | 20:25 |
| valorie | rsync | 20:26 |
| valorie | honestly, not much beats it | 20:26 |
| valorie | and it's about as fast as anything else | 20:26 |
| ForceRecon | yeah,, well most of us would appreciate a backup to a share utilizing the rsync feature in a gui and uncompressed.. | 20:26 |
| ForceRecon | just copy the files.. geez.. you would think this would be so simple and so required.. | 20:27 |
| ForceRecon | gonnna make it myself.. tired of try crap all the time that has not been updated for 17 years | 20:27 |
| ForceRecon | let me rephrase.. not mad at Kubuntu.. just everyone else | 20:29 |

| IrcsomeBot | <Silenoz> To the staging-plasma ppa still a question, is now a stable version for the plasma or an additional beta like the kubuntu / beta ppa? … I question this now out of the background, since I am now not willing to put my laptop with kubuntu to the 5th time | 22:07 |
| valorie | "staging" -- only for testing | 22:09 |
| valorie | please go to the PPA and read the warning | 22:09 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Silenoz> Ok, because I currently me the notes on the website: https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/ubuntu/staging-plasma, durchlese and I also know of the kubuntu / beta ppa. So I wanted to ask specifically again. Not that I again problems with the GUI get like today at noon. … Thank you for the information :) | 22:11 |
| ForceRecon | greetings from Kubuntu world 17.10 nightly build :) | 22:21 |
| ForceRecon | the installation was perfect.. | 22:21 |
| ForceRecon | 3 monitors working | 22:21 |
| ForceRecon | configured Kmail for email and every time I open it.. freeze machine.. so that's horrible.. but will figure it out | 22:22 |
| ForceRecon | no wireless either.. | 22:22 |
| ForceRecon | 06:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Limited BCM4352 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter (rev 03) | 22:22 |
| ForceRecon | also getting message all the time saying | 22:23 |
| ForceRecon | proprietary drivers should I risk changing it to Using Nvidia binary driver version 384.90. I think I will | 22:24 |
| ForceRecon | here we go! | 22:24 |
| valorie | huh | 22:25 |
| valorie | you might try running ubuntu-drivers | 22:25 |
| valorie | and see what it recommends | 22:25 |
| valorie | for both the broadcom and nvidia | 22:26 |
| ForceRecon | looks like wireless just showed up | 22:27 |
| ForceRecon | changed over to nvidia too. no hickups.. takes some times pops up on its own | 22:27 |
| ForceRecon | gonna disconnect from wire.. see if I keep connection to forum | 22:27 |
| ForceRecon | test | 22:28 |
| ForceRecon | guess I am still here | 22:28 |
| ForceRecon | gonna open mail now.. hope I come back.. actually reboot first then try | 22:28 |
| oh4 | When going to "Driver Manager", my video card driver is set to "Using X.Org X server -- Nouveau display driver from xserver-xorg-video-nouveau". I have the option to switch to the recommended "Using NVIDIA binary driver - version 375.66 from nvidia-755 (Recommended Driver)" | 22:46 |
| oh4 | Should I switch to the nvidia? Any reason the install didn't choose that one but instead chose Nouveau? | 22:46 |
| clivejo | oh4: default install tends to only install free drivers | 22:48 |
| oh4 | oh | 22:49 |
| oh4 | I thought it would install nvidia if it saw the card for it | 22:49 |
| oh4 | hmm | 22:49 |
| clivejo | I think there are issues with shipping non-free drivers on the iso/install media | 22:49 |
| oh4 | issues as in legal issues or just compatibility? | 22:50 |
| oh4 | I'm wondering if I should switch to the nvidia but concerned video will break | 22:50 |
| clivejo | legal | 22:50 |
| oh4 | that's why I ask | 22:51 |
| oh4 | ah, ok...makes me feel a little better :) | 22:51 |
| clivejo | usually the nvidia drivers work better (I use the proprietary drivers on my system) | 22:52 |
| oh4 | koo...I'll give it a shot...thanks! | 22:52 |
| clivejo | only problem is that NVidia can be slow about fixing stuff | 22:52 |
| oh4 | yea, that is true | 22:52 |
| clivejo | and don't support Wayland :( | 22:52 |
| oh4 | at least on the Linux | 22:52 |
| oh4 | oh, that I didn't know | 22:53 |
| oh4 | I wonder when wayland will make it's way here | 22:53 |
| clivejo | plasma is already on Wayland or supported on it | 22:54 |
| oh4 | they'd have to do something at that point once kde is ported to it, no? | 22:54 |
| clivejo | haven't been able to test it myself due to having NVidia driver installed | 22:54 |
| oh4 | dang, maybe I should look into this a little more...I'm running 17.04 | 22:54 |
| clivejo | https://blog.martin-graesslin.com/blog/ | 22:55 |
| clivejo | he is the guy works on kwin | 22:55 |
| valorie | "kde" will not be ported to nvidia | 22:56 |
| valorie | nvidia needs to port to wayland | 22:56 |
| valorie | kde is the community, but the plasma/kwin team will not be doing anything special for nvidia | 22:57 |
| oh4 | good info...thanks for sharing | 22:57 |
| valorie | nvidia needs to conform to the standards for wayland, and so far they are doing their own special "magic" | 22:57 |
| valorie | makes me angry, since I have nvidia as well | 22:58 |
| valorie | and wayland is the future | 22:58 |
| valorie | I wish they would get with the program | 22:58 |
| oh4 | one can hope | 22:59 |
| oh4 | let's see what happens | 22:59 |
| valorie | everyone is waiting on them | 23:00 |
