=== anonymous is now known as Guest2629 [04:47] gay [04:47] kubuntu sucks [07:15] Good morning === jayhunold is now known as jhunold [10:21] evening folks... does anyone know if it's possible to resize the application launcher (would like to make it taller, as I have to scroll to see all my favourites). I'm running Linux Mint KDE 18.5, KDE version 5.8.7 [10:21] I have asked in #kde and the mint-linux channel, just thought I'd ask here, as I suspect it's a kde and or ubuntu issue [10:34] zztopless: I see you found http://karuppuswamy.com/wordpress/2017/09/05/howto-here-is-how-to-resize-kde-plasma-application-launcher-main-menu/ [10:36] yeah, thanks for the effort though :-) [10:37] that is handy tip to know :) [10:38] strange that a version change would make something I imagine is reasonably commonly used and and access to it only available through an obscure key combo, unless right-click + mouse2 is a universal action now? [10:38] acheronuk: indeed :) === Tomato95 is now known as Phloxx [11:02] i know this is offtopic but.. Where do i go to learn javascript properly? inside an IDE rather than a webpage? [11:02] (or know a IRC channel where this question will find a host of good answers?) [11:11] !alis | robertjulius [11:11] robertjulius: Alis is an IRC service to help you find channels.

[14:09] TomTom: Do you have dnsmasq installed? [14:11] lordievader: yes, its installed [14:12] That is why NetworkManager sets the nameserver to 127.0.0.x, since it expects dnsmasq to resolve your queries. [14:12] Is dnsmasq running. [14:12] ? [14:13] yes its runnin... normally i dont need it, i guess. [14:14] Does it resolve queries correctly? [14:20] i removed dnsmasq and restarted the system. after restart resolv.conf is again just a file (no symlink) with 127.0.1.1 as DNS, after reconfigure its a symlink and contains 127.0.0.53 [14:20] so its otherway round as i wrote above [14:22] Hmm, usually you do want NM to add nameservers to resolv.conf, however to turn it off: https://askubuntu.com/questions/623940/network-manager-how-to-stop-nm-updating-etc-resolv-conf [14:31] i want that NM does the setup. the question is why it writes 127.0.1.1 and should use somehow 127.0.0.53 [14:38] this seems to be the issue https://askubuntu.com/questions/966870/dns-not-working-after-upgrade-17-04-to-17-10 [14:40] Ah, good to know. The fix proposed works? [14:53] morning [14:54] I have kubuntu 17 running on an acer switch alpha 12 tablet and the stylus works, but the right mouse button middle clicks [14:54] any way to rebind stylus buttons? [15:04] lordievader: of course not B-) but i found another issue after checking the journal again... ubuntu-fan failed during restart... enough for today with system maintenance, thanks for the help/ideas [15:04] No problem [15:06] oh wow kde connect is lit === ubuntu is now known as Guest30370 [16:02] does any body know when 17.04 will update [17:22] ejat: ping === Smoothiie is now known as Smirnoff === Smirnoff is now known as Smoothiie === Smoothiie is now known as Smirnoff === Smirnoff is now known as Smirnoffy [18:08] Hi i just installed Kubuntu and noticed that I can't run executable files. I didn't have this problem in Ubuntu. [18:08] Could anyone please help? [18:13] Smirnoffy: I take it you mean via the file manager? [18:15] Home/Template I have a game folder with several executable files like, sdl, glx and dedicated. [18:16] krytarik [18:16] I take this as a yes. :P [18:17] No idea how Dolphin handles this by default. [18:18] It shows a red line above but if i click on it it becomes a green cross. But it doesn't change anything. [18:19] All files are marked to be run as executable so I don't know why it doesn't work. [18:23] Ah that, I was tricked by it earlier too - it's a 'favorites' feature or somesuch. But if you double-click the file properly or go through the context menu, you should be able to execute it still. [18:25] I hate spammed both my mouse and the enter button and even tried to run it in the terminal [18:25] Nothgin I do seem to work :( [18:25] have* but feel hate I guess, lol [18:26] What you mean with context menu? [18:27] Right-clicking the file. [18:30] 1. Double clicked the file with mouse [18:31] 2. Tried to open it with enter (both Enter buttons) [18:31] 3. Tried to open it via the konsol/terminal [18:32] 4. Made sure it has permission for executable files [18:32] Do you get an error message when you try it through the terminal? [18:33] This is what I have tried. Have even moved the entire folder out onto the desktop but same result there. [18:33] Yes, it says there is no such directory [18:34] Well, that's nothing to do with the used desktop environment then anyway. [18:34] Quake Error: session lock /home/username/.xonotic/lock could not be acquired. Please run with -sessionid and an unique session name. [18:35] This is one of the errors I get, to be more specific [18:38] Is this the only executable you have issues with? [18:39] I have tried sdl, glx and dedicated [18:39] none of responding [18:39] them* [18:40] Anything else than that game? [18:41] Nopp [18:42] As I mentioned earlier have just installed it so haven't got that far yet [18:42] Isn't there anyone using Kubuntu in here who can help? i mean, it's a Kubuntu channel after all =/ [18:43] But it's no Quake one. :P [18:43] reading on the internet just gives me several years old threads with no solution [18:45] True, but as i mentioned earlier this wasn't a problem in Ubuntu [18:45] It was activated by default but now I'm totaly locked out =/ [18:48] I don't understand what that red line or green/white + sign in left corner of the icon is for either. Since changing it doesn't make any difference. [19:24] hallo [19:46] libreelec === luc4_ is now known as luc4 [23:07] hi [23:14] Anyone know what this actually is ? "apt-get -qq -y -d dist-upgrade" it is the main reason that 80% of the time when I start my machine I cannot update my system. Because apt has a lock file created because of that lingering command.
