amichairhi, the command in the kubuntu release notes to upgrade to 17.10 seems to be invalid on 17.04 (kdesudo do-release-upgrade -m desktop -f DistUpgradeViewKDE)10:17
amichairit says unknown option 'm'10:19
amichairalso, discover doesn't show the available upgrade10:19
acheronuklet me check10:20
amichairacheronuk: it looks like it's passing -m to kdesudo rather than to do-release-upgrade? how is that possible?10:21
amichairacheronuk: when I run 'kdesudo do-release-upgrade --help' it shows me the help for kdesudo10:23
acheronukamichair: kdesudo "do-release-upgrade -m desktop -f DistUpgradeViewKDE"10:23
amichairacheronuk: yep, that works10:24
acheronukneeds to correct that in the notes10:24
acheronukif the wiki will let me. being a pain!10:24
amichairacheronuk: I don't remember using qutoes with kdesudo before... maybe I'm wrong (it's not used often)10:25
amichairacheronuk: but thanks for your help and the docs fix :-)10:26
amichairnow let's hope the upgrade goes smoothly this time ;-)10:26
acheronukI did it correctly here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ArtfulUpgrades/Kubuntu10:26
acheronukwhoops10:27
acheronukand should really lnk that from the notes10:27
amichairacheronuk: and from that first link... why duplicate the instructions there?10:29
acheronuksome people don't need a long hand holding instructions10:30
acheronukso a briefy, start the upgrade like this is fine10:30
amichairacheronuk: if it's correct :-)10:30
acheronukbut I'm just tweaking that now10:30
amichairacheronuk: or put the link for full instructions at the end of the short instructions10:31
amichairwhatever, as long as it works10:31
acheronukyes, I am tweaking. gimme 2 mins and see what you think10:32
amichairacheronuk: also, in the last option (just running do-release-upgrade) is there supposed to be a sudo there?10:33
acheronukupdated10:39
acheronukamichair: thanks for spotting those10:44
amichairacheronuk: looks good, thanks for the quick fixes10:55
acheronuk:)10:56

freakyynothing helped13:45
freakyywhen i open spotify, it works13:45
freakyyspotify plays through my headset13:45
freakyyif i press the volume up/down buttons i also hear the sound in my headset, but discord wont use the headset event hough, even in its settings ive set the headset as audio device13:47
freakyyah now it works. i switched to default settings13:48

vrmuppallano notification sounds. Cannot drag the volume bar for "application sounds". But sounds do work except notifications.15:28
DarinMillervrmuppalla: Install pavucontrol-qt ( sudo apt install pavucontrol-qt ) to enable volume adjustment on Notifications.  This bug has been noted and fixed but did not land in time for 17.10.15:32
freakyyhi all i have a problem. My Headset sometimes works for discord, sometimes doesnt. i wonder why? .. in gnome everything works well.16:07
freakyyand it only happens for discord16:07
freakyyif i specifically choose the headset as audio device it doesnt work. if i switch to default device it works for short time then stops to work. and always some scratching eg. also when i higher/lower lower the volume via the system-try volume control.16:09
freakyyalso, when switching between windows i get a very fast animation i think it isnt even an animation. is that normal it feels ... unsoft ;D16:46
anton_pppl, does it make sense to upgrade to 17.10 from 16.04.3?16:52
anton_p"known problems" stop me16:53
anton_pbut i am not sure how baf they are16:53
anton_pbut i am not sure how bad they are16:53
krytarikanton_p: There are always 'known issues' - if you're anxious just try with a Live medium (USB/DVD) if everything works for you.16:58

DarinMillervrmuppalla: Did you use the PulseAdio Volume control app found in the Multimedia menu?18:41
vrmuppallayes.18:57
vrmuppallaDarinMiller: it behaves similar to the systemsettings app. Cannot move the applications volume slider.18:57
DarinMillervrmuppalla: I am not sure what else to try, pavu-qt fixed ~5  machines for me...19:08
TomTomgood evening, is there a way to get a console during the installation? ctrl+alt and f-keys don't show an running terminal19:15
DarinMillerTomTom: From a live boot or going straight to the install menu?  Might try alt-f2 to lauch krunner and then type konsole...19:23
TomTomlive installer... alt+f2, does not show up krunner19:25
BluesKajTomTom, look in the kmenu for System>Konsole19:28
DarinMillerTomTom: sry, try alt-spacebar  (I always remap kurnner to another keystroke so I forget the default keys).19:29
TomTomdid you read what I've said? I am in the installer. there is no menu, nothing19:29
BluesKajTomTom, you didn't tell us where you were in the installer, you should still be able to back to the besktopon live media19:30
BluesKajdesktop rather19:31
BluesKajwhy don't you tell us your real issue with the installer19:32
BluesKajTomTom,^19:33
TomTomI am a long time kde user   and now there is a semi fresh install required because update from 17.04 to 17.10 killed totally kde/plasma. so I am using the live CD to overwrite the current installation. the installer hangs now on "installing former packages" and I want to see what he is doing since 30min. but without console it's not possible19:33
BluesKajsounds to me like you should just start over trying to rescue in the middle of a broken install isn't easily doen19:36
TomTomI want a console. this ain't windows 😎 just restarting something because I don't know it better is a bad strategy. there is network traffic, maybe he is getting oracle jdks or other "old packages". but without a freaking console nobody knows.19:40
TomTombut finally there is an error message. some error during the installation of former packages... reboot. but please, what packages, and what error...19:41
TomTombut finally, I got back a plasma shell and I can dig into the causes. thanks for your patience 😀19:45
DarinMillerTomTom: good to hear.19:46
DarinMillerTomTom: you may need to rename/remove ~/.config/plasma* files.  I had one system that threw all kinds of fits going from 17.04 to 17.10.  Removing those files and letting the Plasma recreate them fixed serveral issues.19:49
BluesKajTomTom, yeah , hitting the back button helps :-)19:49
TomTomI moved the complete . config and. kde dir. did not help. and tons of other things I did.. so only the "overwrite install without formatting" was the last solution19:53
TomTombut why there is no console accessible during the installation? that's quite odd19:54
BluesKajwell, time to close up shop here.. later19:56
