| batteronizer | Hi how are? | 07:50 |
| batteronizer | Which VNC server is recommended to use with KDE? | 07:50 |
| hateball | hmmm, I thought there used to be a builtin thing | 08:03 |
| hateball | !info krfb | 08:04 |
| ubottu | krfb (source: krfb): Desktop Sharing utility. In component universe, is optional. Version 4:17.04.3-0ubuntu1 (artful), package size 933 kB, installed size 2100 kB | 08:05 |
| hateball | batteronizer: this is the "KDE" way I think ^ | 08:05 |
| batteronizer | Can it be configured without UI? | 08:05 |
| batteronizer | I tried searching, but only found UI methods for configuring it so far. | 08:06 |
| hateball | Well if you are running Kubuntu, you have a gui by default | 08:06 |
| batteronizer | It's an Ubuntu server | 08:06 |
| batteronizer | The only way I can configure anything before using is through a config file over a console. | 08:07 |
| lordievader | I usually go with x11vnc or tigervnc. (rarely do vnc these days) | 08:24 |
| hateball | Dear Plasmashell, stop freezing intermittently. Sincerely, me. | 08:27 |
| * hateball screams internally | 08:27 | |
| batteronizer | hateball: I went offline. Arethere logs available for this IRC channel? | 08:46 |
| lordievader | batteronizer: https://irclogs.ubuntu.com/ | 08:46 |
| batteronizer | lordievader: Thanks | 08:46 |
| batteronizer | All logs not availableyet :-/ | 09:09 |
| batteronizer | Does anyone else know if krfb can be configured without a GUI? | 09:10 |

| ajbone | Hello, I've used debian on my pc for years and have now decided to switch to ubuntu. All thats held me back is not wanting to part with KDE desktop. Is there an option of KDE in ubuntu or if not, would kubuntu have all the functionality of ubuntu? Thanks1;2c1;2c | 19:43 |
| lordievader | Kubuntu is Ubuntu + KDE, if I understand your question correctly. | 19:44 |
| ajbone | sounds perfect. sorry I read my question again and its not very clear. Would kubuntu have a software repository that is in sync with or very close to ubuntu? | 19:49 |
| lordievader | Kubuntu builds on Ubuntu. It uses the same repo. | 19:53 |
| ajbone | awesome, thanks a lot for your help =) | 19:56 |

| slawek | Hi | 22:13 |
| viewer|80984 | hi there, im pretty new to linux and kubuntu | 22:45 |
| viewer|80984 | i set my wallpaper and after i reboot it just sets it back to black | 22:45 |
| valorie | viewer|80984: how did you set it? | 22:47 |
| valorie | and which version of Kubuntu are you running? | 22:47 |
| viewer|80984 | i set it through Desktop Settings | 22:49 |
| viewer|80984 | and how do i check which version? | 22:49 |
| valorie | any KDE application Help > about | 22:49 |
| valorie | or krunner / alt+f4 About | 22:49 |
| viewer|80984 | kubuntu 16.014, kde plasma 5.5.5 | 22:50 |
| valorie | hmmm | 22:50 |
| valorie | I always right-click on the desktop and "configure desktop" | 22:51 |
| valorie | I don't see any "desktop settings" as such | 22:52 |
| viewer|80984 | i havent updated kde, i might want to do that | 22:52 |
| valorie | but then I'm running a much newer plasma and kwin | 22:52 |
| viewer|80984 | yeah kubuntu has 5.5.5, and im going to upgrade it to 5.8 to see if it will be better | 22:52 |
| valorie | you are running 16.04 with no upgrades or updates? | 22:52 |
| valorie | I believe we're up to 16.04.3 by now | 22:53 |
| valorie | you want to keep that up-to-date for security, if nothing else | 22:53 |
| viewer|80984 | so how do i update everything? | 22:54 |
| viewer|80984 | sudo apt update? | 22:54 |
| slawek | hello | 22:55 |
| valorie | sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgraded | 22:56 |
| valorie | oops | 22:56 |
| valorie | sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade | 22:56 |
| valorie | no d on the end | 22:56 |
| valorie | update merely brings your source repos up to date | 22:56 |
| valorie | the upgrade part actually upgrades the software you have installed | 22:57 |
| viewer|80984 | then reboot? | 22:57 |
| valorie | if it says to, which it presumably will | 22:57 |
| slawek | I am having a problem with sound after upgrade - no soundcard is detected | 22:57 |
| valorie | slawek: upgrade from what to what? | 22:57 |
| slawek | just apt-get upgrade | 22:58 |
| valorie | from what? | 22:58 |
| valorie | we have two supported LTS, last release and our new one | 22:58 |
| valorie | !sound | 22:58 |
| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 22:58 |
| slawek | 17.10 - actually | 22:58 |
| valorie | ok | 22:58 |
| valorie | me too | 22:59 |
| valorie | are you running backports or any other PPAs, slawek? | 22:59 |
| viewer|80984 | valorie after i update kde plasma with backports will i have too reboot and change the desktop enviroment, or does it upgrade plasma all together | 22:59 |
| valorie | viewer|80984: ? once you reboot, you are upgraded | 23:00 |
| valorie | there should be nothing to do after that | 23:00 |
| slawek | @ubottu - I am checking your links | 23:00 |
| valorie | if you are still on stock 16.04, it will take awhile; there are lots of upgrades to do | 23:01 |
| valorie | whether or not you use backports | 23:01 |
| viewer|80984 | okay cool, i got it figured out | 23:04 |
| slawek | okay - I've checked the basics troubleshooting for sound problems | 23:07 |
| slawek | soundcard is detected | 23:07 |
| valorie | cool | 23:07 |
| slawek | seems to be activated | 23:07 |
| valorie | I usually just use alsamixer first | 23:07 |
| slawek | valorie - I used it as well | 23:07 |
| valorie | so often something is muted for some reason | 23:07 |
| slawek | everything that is used is with ++ | 23:08 |
| slawek | so also looks fine | 23:08 |
| slawek | the problem is, that in KDE sound options, there is no soundacr at all | 23:08 |
| slawek | to be more precise - no sound device to playbackas well as record audio | 23:09 |
| valorie | hmmm | 23:09 |
| valorie | how about pavucontrol? | 23:09 |
| valorie | if that isn't installed, it's the easiest way to mess with pulseaudio | 23:10 |
| valorie | if you don't like it you can always uninstall | 23:10 |
| mpc | so what's the best wiki/info about fully loading your kodi box? | 23:10 |
| valorie | !kodi | 23:10 |
| slawek | the aplay command says that the device is budy | 23:10 |
| valorie | hmmm | 23:10 |
| slawek | *busy | 23:10 |
| valorie | !info kodi | 23:10 |
| ubottu | kodi (source: kodi): Open Source Home Theatre (executable binaries). In component universe, is optional. Version 2:17.3+dfsg1-3 (artful), package size 10 kB, installed size 59 kB | 23:10 |
| slawek | "connection to pulseaudio failed" :/ | 23:11 |
| valorie | mpc -- I don't know | 23:11 |
| valorie | oh gosh, slawek | 23:11 |
| slawek | that is what pavucontrol says | 23:11 |
| valorie | this is my suggestion -- make a new user, called Testsound or something | 23:12 |
| valorie | you don't even have to log out of this session, but log into that one | 23:12 |
| valorie | and see if your sound works | 23:12 |
| valorie | if it does, you know it is something in your configs | 23:12 |
| valorie | or in ~/.local possibly | 23:12 |
| slawek | let me check that | 23:14 |
| slawek | hi again - unfortunately no sound on new user account | 23:20 |
| valorie | yikes | 23:20 |
| valorie | sounds like somewhere along the line your soundcard isn't supported | 23:21 |
| slawek | hmm, yesterday it was :) | 23:21 |
| valorie | I guess you could purge pulseaudio and see if that helps? | 23:21 |
| slawek | it worked fine | 23:21 |
| valorie | I mean, you can always re-install | 23:21 |
| slawek | okay, we see | 23:21 |
| valorie | what exactly was upgraded, slawek? | 23:22 |
| valorie | I'm no expert -- just have wrestled with sound issues in the past myself | 23:22 |
| slawek | valorie - kernel for sure - it asked for reboot | 23:22 |
| slawek | besides - just some icon packs | 23:23 |
| slawek | reboot brb in a minutr | 23:24 |
| valorie | hmmm | 23:25 |
| slawek | valorie - purging pulseaudio worked fine - thanks! | 23:30 |
| slawek | now I just do not have the sound control icon ;) | 23:30 |
| slawek | but I am googling the package name :) | 23:30 |
| slawek | okay - kmix is just fine | 23:32 |
| valorie | cool, glad that worked for you | 23:33 |
| valorie | perhaps next kernel will fix whatever the problem was | 23:33 |
| slawek | I suppose so | 23:34 |
| valorie | my next suggestion was going to be booting into the previous kernel to find out if that was the culprit | 23:34 |
| slawek | anyway - almost half a year w/o sound problem - and bam! here it is | 23:34 |
| slawek | it used to be a pain in the a** for me couple of years ago | 23:34 |
| slawek | now I supposed it is already gon | 23:34 |
| slawek | *gonr | 23:34 |
| valorie | so many working parts -- it's amazing when it *does* work | 23:34 |
