[01:44] <MortyTS> uh valorie, those graphics drivers messed up my desktop
[01:45] <MortyTS> i can only see open apps/windows, the rest is messed up
[01:46] <MortyTS> ppa purge fixed it
[01:54] <chcknrub> 17.10 is so outdated
[01:55] <chcknrub> kde neon lts is using kde plasma 5.11.1 (vs 5.10 for 17.10).... then using kde frameworks 5.39 (vs 5.38 for 17.10)....
[01:56] <chcknrub> https://neon.kde.org
[02:07] <valorie> chcknrub: I'm running plasma 5.11.1
[02:07] <valorie> we'll probably have 5.11.2 in backports this week, if the showstopper bug is fixed
[02:11] <MortyTS> so i'm back to using 'radeon' driver. this isn't great for gaming is it?
[02:15] <dax> it's the best you're gonna get on linux
[02:15] <dax> fglrx is dead, and amdgpu-pro as i have said already does not offer notable performance improvements
[02:15] <dax> and if your system's autoselecting radeon over amdgpu then amdgpu-pro wouldn't work *anyway*
[02:15] <MortyTS> welp
[02:16] <MortyTS> iirc i was using amdgpu-pro on ubuntu 16 before i switched over to kubuntu
[02:18] <dax> which graphics card do you have?
[02:18] <dax> nvm, just found a message from earlier
[02:19] <dax> hd7870 is GCN 1st gen, amdgpu and amdgpu-pro don't officially support that GCN level and i forget about unofficial support but unofficial support in amdgpu sucks
[02:20] <dax> so if your stuff actually worked, i doubt you were using something other than radeon
 Good day everyone
[03:12] <Roey> hi
[03:12] <Roey> I am on the most up-to-date kubuntu & kde
[03:13] <Roey> why does Device Notifier keep randomly popping up??
[03:13] <Roey> oof this is annoying!
[03:24] <valorie> hmm, never happens here, Roey
[03:27] <Roey> ah
[03:27] <Roey> oh hey valorie :) :)
[03:27] <Roey> *hug*
[03:27] <Roey> so I disabled the pop-up notification from it altogether.  Better now.
[03:27] <Roey> good night! :)
[03:35] <valorie> sweet dreams
 thinking on reinstalling today, but not sure if go to 17.10 or stay in 16.04(.3)
[03:37] <valorie> I'm having great luck with Artful, but 16.04.3 was good as well
[03:37] <valorie> I like the latest plasma though
 Well, let's "go big or go home" with 17.10
 too bad I don't have good developer skills to help out in amarok
[05:52] <strangerr> Hello. Are there any plans on including Plasma 5.11 to 17.10 repos? If it is planned, how long would it take?
[06:02] <valorie> yes, it is in backports-landing right now
[06:02] <valorie> and I'm running it
[06:02] <valorie> however, when .2 is released this week we're going to test and see if a serious bug is fixed
[06:03] <valorie> and if so, immediately put it in backports
[06:03] <valorie> so strangerr: add backports PPA now and your next update/upgrade you will get it
[06:03] <lordievader> Good morning
[06:04] <valorie> morning lordievader
[06:04] <lordievader> How are you doing, valorie ?
[06:04] <valorie> good, and you?
[06:05] <lordievader> Doing good here :)
[06:08] <valorie> excellent
[06:08] <strangerr> valorie, wow, thanks! I have `deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu artful-backports main restricted universe multiverse` enabled, is this what you mean?
[08:42] <mparillo> strangerr: Those are the Ubuntu backports. You will also want to enable the Kubuntu backports.
[08:43] <mparillo> sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports
[08:53] <strangerr> mparillo, thanks! so this is the backports ppa valorie was talking about? I will definitely add it, but just curious: will 5.11 get into official artful repos? if yes, when could it be?
 I'm trying to make a kubuntu 17.10 bootable usb installation with persistence space, but with usb-creator-kde before select the iso or the usb, pops up this "installation" window and closes if i hit the cancel button
 (Photo, 625x604) https://irc-attachments.kde.org/q82JP9y5/file_3451.jpg
 the "installing" window doesn not advance, been over a hour and no progress made
[09:01] <strangerr> DGUERRERO, not sure about 17.10, but in 17.04 usb-creator-kde was broken for me, so I ended up using usb-creator-gtk
 @strangerr, thank you, indeed gtk version seems working, too bad it doesn't allow to store data in the remaining USB free space
[09:20] <strangerr> DGUERRERO, yeah, but there are other tools to do so :) See https://askubuntu.com/a/915114/66674 and https://askubuntu.com/a/853839/66674
 @strangerr, thank you, I'll look at it
[09:51] <mparillo> strangerr: No, 5.11 will almost certainly never get into the Artful repos, as it is a version upgrade. For AA, I would bet will only be in Kubuntu Backports. The developers will almost certainly not put 5.11.0 there. And with 5.11.2 coming so soon, they may skip 5.11.1 also.
[09:53] <mparillo> But if you are adventurous, you can test backports-landing (https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/ubuntu/backports-landing?field.series_filter=artful) right now,
[09:54] <mparillo> There is one bug about using system settings to change the default GTK themes. I consider it a paper-cut, since I never change the defaults, but others consider this a major defect.
[09:55] <mparillo> https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=382291
[10:13] <dp_> nick daire
[10:13] <strangerr> mparillo, thanks a ton! not adventurous enough for backports-landing, though, but would definitely use ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports :)
[11:19] <kathrin> Hi, since the upgrade to 17.10  the following effect is annozing>

[12:11] <BluesKaj> Hey all
[12:32]  * jubo2 does the new release dance
[12:34] <BluesKaj> jubo2, so your release upgrade was successful, some weren't
[12:34] <jubo2> BluesKaj: I didn't release upgrade
[12:34] <BluesKaj> clean?
[12:34] <jubo2> I like clean install and then just pop in the directories and files
[12:34] <jubo2> gets also rid of many roottings
[12:34] <BluesKaj> right
[12:35] <jubo2> real and/or imaginare
[12:35] <jubo2> I'm happy with 17.04
[12:35] <jubo2> 18.04 is LTS so gonna get that
[12:36] <jubo2> honestly I have a Lenovo so the drives on slides come out and in in a couple of seconds so I could take one old used one and install on that
[12:37] <jubo2> Or install to USB-to-SATA casing drive but seriously 17.04 so few bugs and so nice that I'm not in a hurry to upgrade
[12:44] <BluesKaj> I'm waiting for 18.04  testing to begin, probly put it on the spare hdd . ppl suggest VMs but I've never had much luck with them
[13:39] <ForceRecon> hey guys.. I am getting the error for steam about the libgl.so.1

[13:46] <ForceRecon> I got it :)
[13:46] <ForceRecon> thanks
[13:49] <kathrin> Hi, still working on this sddm-error: "QObject: Cannot create children for a parent that is in a different thread." One user's account comes without task-, systray, background and context-menu.
[14:24] <D0U91E> morning folks
[14:25] <vrmuppalla> hi DOU91E

[14:53] <D0U91E> What's up in here today?
[14:57] <D0U91E> BluesKaj, did you see I solved the cifs issue I was having?
[14:57] <BluesKaj> yes
[14:57] <BluesKaj> good stuff :-)
[14:57] <D0U91E> I am not sure what I changed to break it but I did the install of 17.10 and flashed to router too...
[14:58] <aaaa> Hello
[14:58] <D0U91E> yes I was really lucky to find the little snippet athough the docs probably outline the solution too
[14:58] <D0U91E> aaaa, hello...
[14:58] <D0U91E> aaaa, I bet you need help picking a nick?
[14:59] <aaaa> yes i need a little help
[14:59] <BluesKaj> I quit using the router connection with my media server since a power failure killed the attached hdd
[15:00] <aaaa> ops no this nick is fine i mean i have a problem with my computer
[15:01] <BluesKaj> aaaa, well tell us your issue
[15:01] <aaaa> is someone here who have a little time to try to help me?
[15:02] <D0U91E> BluesKaj, I took a preemptive step and put a backup power supply not sure if it will save drives but I though I would try - do you have an opinion on backup ps?
[15:02] <D0U91E> we all do we were waiting for you aaaa
[15:03] <D0U91E> seriously I will help if I can...
[15:03] <aaaa> my probles is that time of time not fixed time my connetction dropping not like disconnect just stop to send and recieve bites
[15:03] <D0U91E> I have about an hour or so
[15:03] <D0U91E> how is your ping test?
[15:04] <aaaa> i don't know
[15:04] <D0U91E> ping www.google.com
[15:05] <BluesKaj> real backup PSUs have an expensive baterry/powerdrop/surge protection system. We jhad on for our insruments in the lab where I workedbefore retirement...but the systems might be very different now
[15:05] <aaaa> but my phone which is connected to same router continues to working with internet only my computer don't recieve and send bites
[15:07]  * BluesKaj checks his spell check
[15:07] <D0U91E> aaaa, great we dont have to fix your phone and it let us know you router is not the issue - You need to ping google.
[15:07] <aaaa> results from ping tets "31 packets transmitted, 31 received, 0% packet loss, time 30036ms"
[15:08] <aaaa> "rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 34.832/36.569/45.079/2.035 ms"
[15:08] <D0U91E> how frequent is you issue with your connection?
[15:09] <aaaa> ops not "tets" correctly is "test"
[15:10] <aaaa> different some time 5-10 minutes sometimes 1-2 hours before to drop connection
[15:10] <D0U91E> did you let it go as long enough to pick up on the problem - I am just guessing here hoping someone more helpful will chime in,,,
[15:11] <D0U91E> aaaa, wow that is a tough one to pin down then
[15:11] <D0U91E> aaaa, you might be stuck combing through logs but I don't even know where to start there
[15:12] <D0U91E> aaaa, but it is a networking issue correct? dumb question but I want to make sure.
[15:12] <aaaa> yes it is the network problem
[15:13] <D0U91E> I think all the network issues get ironed out in Ubuntu and Kubuntu builds on that.
[15:13] <D0U91E> I know I was having issues (dns) and someone here directed me to #ubuntu
[15:13] <aaaa> because i have and windows on the this computer as second OS and there i have no problems with the connection
[15:14] <D0U91E> aaaa, I am sure it is a configuration issue... what version are you running?
[15:14] <D0U91E> err kubuntu version?
[15:14] <aaaa> 17.10
[15:15] <aaaa> recently i udate to it but problem with the network continue :(
[15:15] <aaaa> update*
[15:22] <aaaa> by the way how i fixing the problem just as press the button dissconect and then connect and the network fixing but this is annoying
[15:22] <D0U91E> aaaa, you gonna go to #ubuntu?
[15:23] <aaaa> ok
[15:24] <D0U91E> but just ask the question why does my network connection keep disconnecting intermitantly/periodically - reconnecting re extablishing connection without any further efforts.
[15:25] <D0U91E> re establishes
[15:25] <D0U91E> Just a thought
[15:26] <aaaa> ok
[15:52] <vrmuppalla> aaaa- is your n/w connection slow when it does connect ?
 hello, everybody, i'm Alessandro and i'm a rookie in the Linux world, yesterday i installed Kubuntu on my Imac and liked it, but i had to face a serious problem: wi-fi connection doesn't work, so i cannot use neither the app store nor the browser. I don't understand how i can configure wireless connection, please, help me!
 @alecotro27, Welcome!
 it seems your wireless card drivers are missing, there's any chance you can connect your imac with a ethernet cable so you can download and install the wireless driver?
[17:29] <acheronuk> !wifi
 unfortunately i haven't an ethernet cable, i'll read the guide hoping to find a solution, thank you so much, guys!
[17:35] <vrmuppalla> alectro27- what wireless card is in your mac ? It should be listed on the bottom or under the battery.
 i checked by terminal,  it says: "Broadcom Limited BCM4360 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter (rev 03)"
[17:44] <aaaa> Hello
[17:47] <vrmuppalla> see if broadcom-sta-dkms package gt installed.
 @vrmuppalla, sorry, i don't know what command i have to use, could you tell me it please?
[17:53] <vrmuppalla> just type "apt search broadcom" on command line (konsole).
[17:54] <aaaa> or you can use this one also "apt-cache policy broadcom-sta-dkms"
 @vrmuppalla, it says: "libcrystalhd3/now 1:0.0-git20110715.fdd2f19-12 amd64 [installed, local] … Crystal HD Video Decoder (shared library)
[17:58] <vrmuppalla> so broadcom drivers are not installed.
[17:59] <vrmuppalla> While connected to internet by wire, you can run drivermanager and see what happens.
 ok, but is there a way to install drivers without wire? because i don't know if i have one
[18:01] <vrmuppalla> or just run "apt install broadcom-sta-dkms" in terminal.
[18:02] <vrmuppalla> prefix the line with "sudo"
 it says:"impossible to find broadcom-sta-dkms package"
[18:06] <vrmuppalla> which version of Kubuntu are you running ?
[18:07] <acheronuk> probably a bit out of date now, but: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx#STA_-_No_Internet_access
[18:09] <aaaa> with this commend you can download the driver "apt download broadcom-sta-dkms"
 i'm running the latest version: Kubuntu 16.10
[18:10] <aaaa> then you can move it on usb and install from usb
[18:10] <vrmuppalla> I am running stock 17.10 and it is in my repository. You may not have enabled all apt sources.
 ok, thank you!
[18:12] <vrmuppalla> "muon" is a software management tool with GUI. Install it with "sudo apt install muon". Then start it with "muon".
[18:12] <acheronuk> also apt download will on work if you have a connection ;)
[18:13] <vrmuppalla> yes. You will need a wired connection.
[18:13] <acheronuk> as you don't have working wifi, or a cable, you will have to try on another machine, or get wifi working on a live session
[18:13] <vrmuppalla> Mainly because dkms package will have other dependencies so you cannot just download one package.
 i have muon's latest version already installed
[18:15] <vrmuppalla> In sources, is proprietary also checked ? And software restricted by license ?
[18:16] <acheronuk> indeed. I had to faff around this chicken/egg problem on a dell with broadcom years ago. without a wired connection on the machine, it's a real pain
 well, that's a problem, i'll try to get an ethernet cable and configure drivers, thank you so much for your patience!
[19:23] <ddoobb> Can you hide the tabs bar in Okular?
[22:11] <MortyTS> i have a problem with the volume settings. i set my mic and headphones as the default input and output devices but still apps dont use them without me selecting the correct device under applications or recording tabs for each individually
[22:38] <ronnoc> MortyTS: Have you tried installing pavucontrol? I've found it to be invaluable in configuring auio in / outputs on Debian-based systems, esp. within Plasma.
