| user|32525 | Pardon, is this an appropriate place to ask for assistance troubleshooting a boot issue with kubuntu? | 05:03 |
| freetown | user|32525: don't know but just shoot | 05:12 |
| user|32525 | Alright, thank you. I think this might actually be more pertinent to GRUB, frankly I'm really in over my head. My machine has a windows partition and a kubuntu one. In the past a menu would display allowing me to select which OS I wished to use, but now I boot to GRUB command line. I can boot to kubuntu with a set of commands or windows by typing e | 05:14 |
| user|32525 | xit, but I can't figure out how to get the menu back | 05:14 |
| parveen | hey | 05:20 |
| parveen | i have installed gnome software center but it is not showing search bar. i have uninstalled and reinstalled it again but the problem remians same. can anyone help me on this. | 05:36 |
| lordievader | Good morning | 08:26 |
| John85 | hey folks :) | 08:44 |
| John85 | back again | 08:50 |
| John852 | hello? | 08:57 |
| John85 | ello again | 09:19 |
| hateball | John852: you're a bit bouncy, and I didnt see any question. maybe you just wanted to say hello :D | 09:31 |
| John852 | i want to set up a vpn, and im a simple minded fella so im looking for a simple way to set up openvpn :p | 09:33 |
| lordievader | Where are you struggeling? | 09:34 |
| John85 | ok..im gonna try something.... | 09:41 |
| === john__ is now known as John852 | ||
| John852 | ok...im back for good this time :D | 09:43 |
| John852 | so...i have installed openvpn and i need to know how to set it up before i spend £50 on a years subscruption to nordvpn | 09:49 |
| John852 | im a simple minded guy so im looking for a simple solution | 09:49 |
| hateball | John852: click the network icon in your tray, then the uh.. little.. thing, to go into settings | 09:50 |
| === john is now known as Guest81349 | ||
| hateball | Click Add, pick openvpn, fill in stuff | 09:50 |
| hateball | John852: or if you have a file, I think you can import it under the Connection menu | 09:51 |
| lordievader | Usually the vpn provider supplies a configuration file (and cert), then it is as easy as doing `sudo openvpn <config-file>` | 09:51 |
| Guest81349 | ok, so Konversation is only marginally more stable | 09:52 |
| === enzo is now known as Guest8821 | ||
| Guest81349 | ok, thanks :) | 10:02 |
| Guest81349 | thats sounds a lot simpler than what i have been reading on some websites | 10:02 |

| anton_p | ppl, kubuntu 17.10 has rather strange problem: i can't print pdfs from okular, but i can print them from evince, libre office, etc. what to check? | 10:14 |
| anton_p | i upgraded from 16.04.3 | 10:15 |
| anton_p | okular just makes as if it prints but the document goes not to printer queue | 10:16 |
| john__ | hi anton_p, wish i could help, i was planning on upgrading myself | 10:20 |
| anton_p | i have two theories: it has something to do with upgraded ppd file or with new qt5 printint dialog. | 10:24 |
| hateball | anton_p: can you print *to* PDF from okular? | 10:24 |
| anton_p | pdf from pdf? i can try | 10:25 |
| anton_p | yes, it works | 10:27 |
| anton_p | i'll try to remove and add printer again | 10:27 |
| anton_p | "configure printer" doesn't show on | 10:32 |
| hateball | anton_p: what printer is this? for eg HP printers there are usually different drivers to pick from, sometimes Kubuntu guesses wrong | 10:33 |
| anton_p | canon | 10:33 |
| hateball | on the other hand, it works in other apps... | 10:33 |
| anton_p | gutenprint | 10:33 |
| hateball | anton_p: if you run okular from a terminal, and then try to do your stuff, does it spit out any information? | 10:33 |
| anton_p | it worked before 17.10 | 10:33 |
| anton_p | usage: lpr [-cdfghlmnpqrstv] [-#num] [-1234 font] [-C class] [-i [numcols]] | 10:34 |
| anton_p | [-J job] [-Pprinter] [-T title] [-U user] [-wnum] [name ...] | 10:34 |
| anton_p | that's all | 10:34 |
| hateball | anton_p: so you ran okular, then pressed print in the gui? | 10:35 |
| hateball | and thats what spat out in the terminal? | 10:36 |
| anton_p | exactly | 10:36 |
| hateball | heh, then it must send an incorrect string | 10:37 |
| hateball | I don't have a 17.10 to test with myself atm | 10:37 |
| anton_p | looks like this bug https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=499514 | 10:37 |
| ubottu | Debian bug 499514 in okular "okular should recommend cups-bsd for printing" [Normal,Open] | 10:37 |
| hateball | anton_p: suggest you look for, or file a bug on | 10:37 |
| hateball | yeah | 10:37 |
| hateball | anton_p: file a bug on launchpad tho | 10:38 |
| hateball | !bug | 10:38 |
| ubottu | If you find a bug in Kubuntu, please follow the instructions at https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Bugs/Reporting to report the issue to the developers. | 10:38 |
| anton_p | apt install cups-bsd lpr- -- fixed okular printing | 10:40 |
| anton_p | thanks guys | 10:40 |

| ystein | Hello. Performance issue here. The process plasmashell is using over 50% of my CPU power (varies betw 40-90%). For a day now plasmashell and baloo_file_extractor have constantly used about 25% CPU power. This issue has persisted across reboots. | 14:07 |
| hateball | ystein: is it a clean install? | 14:08 |
| ystein | Asus laptop with Intel Core i5-42xx | 14:08 |
| ystein | hateball: Clean install, not upgrade. Installed the beta about 3 weeks ago and have kept it updated since. Do I need to change repos? | 14:09 |
| ystein | Oh yeah, it's Kubuntu 17.10. | 14:10 |
| hateball | ystein: nah no need to change anything | 14:11 |
| hateball | ystein: it's normal that baloo_file_extractor uses a fair amount to index your stuff during the first runs, but sometimes it also hangs on a file for whatever reason | 14:12 |
| hateball | ystein: does "/usr/bin/baloo_file_extractor" show it having some file opened? | 14:13 |
| hateball | ugh, "lsof /usr/bin/baloo_file_extractor" | 14:13 |
| hateball | ystein: as for plasmashell, that is usually due to some misbehaving plasmoid | 14:14 |
| ystein | hateball: fyi currently baloo_file_extractor uses very little CPU, it's plasmashell now | 14:14 |
| hateball | ystein: what GPU/driver are you using? | 14:14 |
| ystein | COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME | 14:15 |
| ystein | baloo_fil 1561 ystein txt REG 8,7 129168 1705313 /usr/bin/baloo_file_extractor | 14:15 |
| ystein | that's the output | 14:15 |
| hateball | hmm | 14:16 |
| ystein | no custom drivers in use, not even via Driver Manager. And I don't have a GPU. | 14:17 |
| hateball | ystein: I've had it crap out on me some times, what I did then was "balooctl disabled" reboot, then "balooctl enable" and have it reindex things | 14:17 |
| ystein | OK, I disabled it now. | 14:18 |
| ystein | Should I see an effect immediately or after a reboot? | 14:18 |
| hateball | iirc it should stop immediately, otherwise "balooctl stop" | 14:19 |
| hateball | I just reboot to make sure it lets go of everything | 14:19 |
| ystein | I'll reboot and check back in. brb | 14:19 |
| ystein | Hey, seems everything is back to normal now. | 14:22 |
| hateball | Normal meaning? | 14:23 |
| ystein | plasmashell and baloo are silent, no cpu spikes | 14:23 |
| hateball | ystein: did you enable baloo again? | 14:24 |
| ystein | I just did. | 14:24 |
| hateball | guess you will notice in a while if it finds some file it doesnt like and starts being annoying again | 14:24 |
| ystein | Can I exclude certain file types from the index, such as zip and tar.gz? | 14:26 |
| ystein | I mean, does it index the contents of zipped folders? If it does then no wonder I get cpu spikes | 14:27 |
| hateball | I don't remember if it indexes tars or zips actually | 14:30 |
| hateball | you can exclude directories if you like | 14:30 |
| ystein | hateball: Thanks for the help! | 14:31 |
| hateball | ystein: :) | 14:37 |
