[02:56] <darwin_> how can Kubuntu release 17.10 with this bug??? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/1720519
[02:59] <juacom99> hi, one quick question. I made a distro upgrade from 17.04 to 17.10 and now every time i restart my machine my resolv.conf id set to default. i got my  DNS servers in /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base but not even doing a sudo resolvconf -u works
[04:43] <darwin_> why were the KDE packages demoted from main to universe?

[05:05] <Mike0254> Bye
[05:41] <Taggnostr> hello
[06:39] <freakyy> hi all. how can I check, what program uses bandwidth?
[10:17] <amichair> hi, 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)
[10:19] <amichair> it says unknown option 'm'
[10:19] <amichair> also, discover doesn't show the available upgrade
[10:20] <acheronuk> let me check
[10:21] <amichair> acheronuk: it looks like it's passing -m to kdesudo rather than to do-release-upgrade? how is that possible?
[10:23] <amichair> acheronuk: when I run 'kdesudo do-release-upgrade --help' it shows me the help for kdesudo
[10:23] <acheronuk> amichair: kdesudo "do-release-upgrade -m desktop -f DistUpgradeViewKDE"
[10:24] <amichair> acheronuk: yep, that works
[10:24] <acheronuk> needs to correct that in the notes
[10:24] <acheronuk> if the wiki will let me. being a pain!
[10:25] <amichair> acheronuk: I don't remember using qutoes with kdesudo before... maybe I'm wrong (it's not used often)
[10:26] <amichair> acheronuk: but thanks for your help and the docs fix :-)
[10:26] <amichair> now let's hope the upgrade goes smoothly this time ;-)
[10:26] <acheronuk> I did it correctly here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ArtfulUpgrades/Kubuntu
[10:27] <acheronuk> whoops
[10:27] <acheronuk> and should really lnk that from the notes
[10:29] <amichair> acheronuk: and from that first link... why duplicate the instructions there?
[10:30] <acheronuk> some people don't need a long hand holding instructions
[10:30] <acheronuk> so a briefy, start the upgrade like this is fine
[10:30] <amichair> acheronuk: if it's correct :-)
[10:30] <acheronuk> but I'm just tweaking that now
[10:31] <amichair> acheronuk: or put the link for full instructions at the end of the short instructions
[10:31] <amichair> whatever, as long as it works
[10:32] <acheronuk> yes, I am tweaking. gimme 2 mins and see what you think
[10:33] <amichair> acheronuk: also, in the last option (just running do-release-upgrade) is there supposed to be a sudo there?
[10:39] <acheronuk> updated
[10:44] <acheronuk> amichair: thanks for spotting those
[10:55] <amichair> acheronuk: looks good, thanks for the quick fixes
[10:56] <acheronuk> :)

[11:58] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[12:07] <user|74493> Hello, I have problems with OpenGL after upgrading from 17.04 to 17.10
[12:08] <user|74493> https://www.filepicker.io/api/file/S64b77TkTaWQgyjqvmCZ?signature=28ecafa617404fcd4063ad3927947cf7091c320f2397ec1317bad06912e7c528&policy=eyJleHBpcnkiOjE1MDg1OTAzNDl9
[12:08] <user|74493> and also with logout-greeter
[12:09] <user|74493> i have to do "poweroff" from terminal in order to shut down my laptop
[12:23] <freakyy> hi all. tell me what u think, ubuntu or kubuntu: https://www.freakyness.de/en/2017/10/21/kubuntu-kdeplasma-or-ubuntu-gnome/ :)
[12:33] <clivejo> freakyy: please don't troll in here
[12:37] <freakyy> hm i dotn wanna troll?
[13:45] <freakyy> hi all i have a question. im running kubuntu 17.10 but ... when i connect my headset, its recognized but .. it wont play sound from discord. i tried setting it as the default unsetting it as the default resetting it as the default, restartin discord, klicking default several times
[13:45] <freakyy> nothing helped
[13:45] <freakyy> when i open spotify, it works
[13:45] <freakyy> spotify plays through my headset
[13:47] <freakyy> if 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 device
[13:48] <freakyy> ah now it works. i switched to default settings
[13:48] <freakyy> i mean setting, default
[13:49] <freakyy> then it worked however, thanks ;D
[15:28] <vrmuppalla> no notification sounds. Cannot drag the volume bar for "application sounds". But sounds do work except notifications.
[15:32] <DarinMiller> vrmuppalla: 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.
[16:07] <freakyy> hi all i have a problem. My Headset sometimes works for discord, sometimes doesnt. i wonder why? .. in gnome everything works well.
[16:07] <freakyy> and it only happens for discord
[16:09] <freakyy> if 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.
[16:46] <freakyy> also, when switching between windows i get a very fast animation i think it isnt even an animation. is that normal it feels ... unsoft ;D
[16:52] <anton_p> ppl, does it make sense to upgrade to 17.10 from 16.04.3?
[16:53] <anton_p> "known problems" stop me
[16:53] <anton_p> but i am not sure how baf they are
[16:53] <anton_p> but i am not sure how bad they are
[16:58] <krytarik> anton_p: There are always 'known issues' - if you're anxious just try with a Live medium (USB/DVD) if everything works for you.
[17:08] <vrmuppalla> pavucontrol-qt also doesn't work to change applications volume.
[18:41] <DarinMiller> vrmuppalla: Did you use the PulseAdio Volume control app found in the Multimedia menu?
[18:57] <vrmuppalla> yes.
[18:57] <vrmuppalla> DarinMiller: it behaves similar to the systemsettings app. Cannot move the applications volume slider.
[19:08] <DarinMiller> vrmuppalla: I am not sure what else to try, pavu-qt fixed ~5  machines for me...
[19:15] <TomTom> good evening, is there a way to get a console during the installation? ctrl+alt and f-keys don't show an running terminal
[19:23] <DarinMiller> TomTom: From a live boot or going straight to the install menu?  Might try alt-f2 to lauch krunner and then type konsole...
[19:25] <TomTom> live installer... alt+f2, does not show up krunner
[19:28] <BluesKaj> TomTom, look in the kmenu for System>Konsole
[19:29] <DarinMiller> TomTom: sry, try alt-spacebar  (I always remap kurnner to another keystroke so I forget the default keys).
[19:29] <TomTom> did you read what I've said? I am in the installer. there is no menu, nothing
[19:30] <BluesKaj> TomTom, you didn't tell us where you were in the installer, you should still be able to back to the besktopon live media
[19:31] <BluesKaj> desktop rather
[19:32] <BluesKaj> why don't you tell us your real issue with the installer
[19:33] <BluesKaj> TomTom,^
[19:33] <TomTom> I 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 possible
[19:36] <BluesKaj> sounds to me like you should just start over trying to rescue in the middle of a broken install isn't easily doen
[19:40] <TomTom> I 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.
[19:41] <TomTom> but finally there is an error message. some error during the installation of former packages... reboot. but please, what packages, and what error...
[19:45] <TomTom> but finally, I got back a plasma shell and I can dig into the causes. thanks for your patience 😀
[19:46] <DarinMiller> TomTom: good to hear.
[19:49] <DarinMiller> TomTom: 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] <BluesKaj> TomTom, yeah , hitting the back button helps :-)
[19:53] <TomTom> I 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 solution
[19:54] <TomTom> but why there is no console accessible during the installation? that's quite odd
[19:56] <BluesKaj> well, time to close up shop here.. later
[21:20] <ratatata> hmm trying to create an install usb (32gb drive) with startup disk creator on ubuntu but i can't boot it
[21:21] <ratatata> it was formatted to ext4, does that matter?
