user|691Please help guys07:29
lordievaderuser|691: Try Unetbootin.07:30
lordievaderThought it had support for Mac07:31
valoriemac might at least have dd?07:44
valoriesince it's bsd underneath07:44
lordievaderIt probably has it, but I've had more luck with unetbootin than dd'ing an image.07:47

Shibeguys on the website it says kubuntu 17.10 is out but the download link still shows me kubuntu 17.0412:38
hateballShibe: So it does12:40
* hateball pokes acheronuk12:40
hateballAt least I think acheronuk is one that can edit that stuff12:40
hateballShibe: for the time being, it exists here anyhow http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/artful/release/12:41
hateballSomeone just needs to update the webpage12:41
acheronukShibe: I was just testing the new banner in place. we are not quite released yet12:41
Shibeacheronuk: oh12:42
Shibeacheronuk: got me a bit hyped up :(12:42
acheronukShibe: sorry about that. changed back to 17.04 until the Ubuntu release team pulls the trigger on Ubuntu and all the flavours12:44
mparilloYes, a few years back I jumped the gun upon seeing final images published, and was told it was a best practice to wait on the official release announcement. It usually comes out late afternoon UTC / GMT.12:50
BluesKajI'm probly almost there already, updating and upgrading daily usually makes the official release a small upgrade to the OS12:55
ForceReconare you guys at an official release yet?12:56
acheronuknot yet12:57
* ForceRecon puts away blow horn12:57
BluesKajit's not released yet. it will be anounced here #ubuntu-release-party12:57
ForceReconwoohoo.. morning btw12:58
BluesKaj'Morning12:58
ForceReconI am having some troubles with kubuntu on the machine as you know.. I am going to have to go back to the old distro for now and try again next week.  I need a stable machine back.. ....12:59
ForceReconnot saying kubuntu is unstable by any means... just saying my machine is having some issues..13:00
=== rudra_ is now known as rudra
acheronuknow we are released :D13:21
acheronukhttps://kubuntu.org/13:21
acheronukalternative downloads and checksums still need updating13:22
lordievaderForceRecon: What kind of issues?13:23
BluesKajlordievader, he left , but he had grub and graphics issues13:25
lordievaderThat should be solveable... unless it is nvidia+intel related13:27
hateballnvidia + encrypted LVM iirc13:27
BluesKajyeah , forgot about the lvm and encryption13:28
BluesKajdunno why home users bother with that, but to each his own13:29
hateballwell at least FDE seems a bit overkill13:30
hateballencrypting /home, sure13:31
hateballThat said, nvidia could step up their game and fix their driver13:31
BluesKajwell, I have the same driver nd it works well13:31
BluesKajand13:31
lordievaderYeah, running nouveau is a whole lot easier, but the performance is crap.13:31
BluesKajif you're a gamer, but otherwise it works13:32
hateballBluesKaj: Yes it works well. As long as you dont require things like KMS to unlock LUKS during boot etc :)13:32
hateballIf AMD can do it then nvidia can, they just... dont13:32
hateballsame with the Wayland situation13:32
BluesKajyup, too many complications13:32
drpFDE is easy to setup in the installer and I can feel fine with a weaker login password + if my computer ever gets stolen none of my data can be used13:34
drpso I do think it'13:34
drps useful for home13:35
* lordievader has everything but /boot encrypted13:35
hateballYes, but the installer could/should have a warning if you enable FDE and the nvidia blob at the same time13:35
lordievaderOn machines which can easily leave the house.13:35
BluesKajhas anyone here heard of a linux machine without encryption being stolen and easlly accessed and used against the user like his bank and CC accounts?...i haven't13:49
D0U91EBluesKaj, ouch13:49
BluesKajI haven't heard of anyone having that issue, D0U91E13:50
lordievaderComputers get stolen all the time. I don't want to give them the ability to (easily) read the data I store on there.13:52
lordievaderIt might not be their aim. But that does not make it that I like the thought of it.13:52
BluesKajyeah ,and thery mostly windows or mac  machines13:52
acheronukhttps://kubuntu.org/news/kubuntu-17-10-artful-aardvark-is-released/13:53
lordievader🎉13:54
IrcsomeBot<Silenoz> I had thought that now plasma 5.11 comes up and receives 17.10. Since current is currently plasma 5.10.5. I guess the plasma 5.11 with the 18.04 will come in April. What is now a pure speculation.13:58
BluesKajSilenoz , it should be in the backports soon13:59
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> plasma 5.11 will come for 17.10 in the backports PPA13:59
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> 18.04 will have plasma 5.1214:00
D0U91EBluesKaj, where does the query come from err why were you asking?14:00
D0U91Eheyyyy I thought 17,10 was going to be released... right?14:01
BluesKajyes, it's supposedly in the repos now14:02
lordievaderD0U91E: See the link acheronuk just posted ;)14:02
BluesKajD0U91E, the issue was about encryption on home user machines14:02
BluesKajand the dangers of them being stolen14:03
silenozi have a problem with the backports ppa14:18
silenozsilenoz@VirtualBox:~$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports14:18

acheronukwhat problem?14:19
IrcsomeBot<Silenoz> I'm just finishing pastebin everything.14:20
BluesKajsilenoz, check the the "technical details", you'llsee that 17.10 isn't included in those repos14:21
BluesKajOSs14:21
acheronukthere is nothing in the backports ppa yet for artful14:21
BluesKajyup14:21
acheronukthere are still a few issues with plasma 5.11 which makes me hesitant to push that to the main PPA14:22
silenozso here pastebin14:25

BluesKajsilenoz, https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/ubuntu/backports14:36
BluesKajclick on :Technical details.....14:37
acheronukno release file, as nothing released into it yet14:38
IrcsomeBot<Silenoz> so it takes two more three days until the releasedatei stands ready? If it is, it is also no wonder that you edit the manual still nothing came and again a error message.14:42
BluesKajacheronuk, been on beta 2 with plasma 5.11, but there no new packages or upgrades in the repos yet and lsb_release -a shows the devel flag is gone14:43
acheronukI've copied krita into backports PPA, as that is ready, and should stop the no release file message14:44
acheronukwhen it publishes anyway14:45
IrcsomeBot<Silenoz> ichw earth now snap back in the snap and wait a few days and then look again, until accordingly everything was released. To beat me now is something time-consuming. : D Still many thanks for the help and the now new information :)14:48

trevizehello I am having trouble upgradeing to 17.1016:05
trevizecould anyone help me?16:05
acheronukwhat trouble?16:06
acheronukupgrade instructions from 17.04 are here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ArtfulUpgrades/Kubuntu16:07
trevizeI write this to console16:08
trevizekdesudo "do-release-upgrade -m desktop -f DistUpgradeViewKDE"16:08
trevizeI can see the release upgrade window16:08
trevizebut it asks me to upgrade to 17.04 instead. I am upgrading from 16.1016:08
acheronuktrevize: yes, that is the upgrade path when you are not on LTS releases. the upgrade goes to the next release. it doesn't skip intermediate ones16:10
BluesKajyes, it's not correct to jump a release, you can backup your data then doa clena install of 17.1016:11
BluesKajdo a clean install16:11
trevizethe problem is it gives me an error and I cant upgrade to 17.0416:11
trevizea clean install is troublesome :-\16:12
BluesKajmake sure you yupdate and upgrade your existing packages first then do-release-upgrade16:12
acheronukand on 16.10, ppa-purge the backports ppa before trying an upgrade16:13
_Wens_hi all! plasma-discover segmentation fault. If use kdesudo "do-release-upgrade -m desktop -f DistUpgradeViewKDE" wrote No new release found.16:14
acheronukyou can also manually change yakkety in your sources.list to artful, and apt-get dist-upgrade, though that is a not officially supported method16:14
acheronukand is at your own risk16:14
acheronuk_Wens_: what release upgrading from?16:15
trevizeis it too late to upgrade to 17.04 now?16:15
_Wens_kubuntu 17.04 + backports16:15
trevizemaybe I could first upgrade to 17.04 and then to 17.1016:15
acheronuk_Wens_: let me check16:15
acheronuk_Wens_: this has not updated with details of artful yet http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/meta-release16:22
acheronukwhich is what the release upgrader checks16:23
_Wens_‎‎acheronuk‎ thanks16:25
acheronuk_Wens_: that will get updated a little later today, at which point upgrades should work16:25
acheronuk_Wens_: ubuntu release team are apparently just checking for any last minute upgrade issues before they switch that over16:26
_Wens_‎‎acheronuk‎ ok, thank you16:27

o_aHello, all. When will Kubuntu 17.10 and Plasma 5.11 arrive? Thanks17:25
o_aAlso, my fonts are ridiculously tiny after the last update and I'm not sure why17:26
acheronuko_a: Kubuntu 17.10 is here17:26
acheronukPlasma 5.11 is built, but in testing. will come for the backports PPA sometime in the next week or 217:27
mparilloAnd still with the expectation that backports will skip 5.11.0 in favour of 5.11.1?17:28
acheronukmparillo: 5.11.1 is built17:28
user|80389How can i upgrade17:29
user|80389to 17.1017:29
acheronukuser|80389: from what release?17:29

acheronukupgrade instructions from 17.04 are here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ArtfulUpgrades/Kubuntu17:30
user|80389thanks17:30
mparilloYes, I know, I tested 5.11.1 maybe a week ago. I deleted the VM during the flurry of 17.10 release testing.17:30
acheronukmparillo: I only built it on Tuesday when it was released17:31

* acheronuk thanks yofel 17:58
o_aacheronuk: Any ideas for when Plasma 5.11 land in the main repo? Or we can only expect it to appear in 18.04?18:19
acheronuko_a: Plasma 5.11 is only likely in the backports PPA for 17.10. 18.04 will get 5.11 reasonably soon after it gets going hopefully, then 5.12 in Jan/Feb18:21
o_aYou mean January 2019?18:22
acheronuko_a: No, January/Feb 201818:23

acheronuk5.12.0 LTS Release Thu 2018-01-2518:23
acheronuk18.04 will not go into feature freeze until March 2018, so should get plasma 5.12 in18:24
_Wens_Upgrade to 17.10. Bug with add google account in setting not fixed :(19:23
acheronuk_Wens_: I am playing with a fix for that, as the older Xenial version of 'signon-ui' actually works, while the newer builds do not19:25
acheronukat least, the old one does not segfault!19:25
acheronukif can get that working, it can go in updates or backports, with the added bonus of kio-gdrive in backports :)19:27
_Wens_‎acheronuk‎ kio-gdrive enable in backports?19:28
