[16:42] <viewer|81643> Hi folks, not sure if I'm right here. I've a problem with the icon location for my app. I've set Icon=appname in the desktop file and installed /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/appname.png. However, the icon does not show up in the launcher.
[16:48] <guilherme__> Hi all
[16:48] <guilherme__> What name of virtual keyboard in kubuntu?
[17:00] <BluesKaj> guilherme__, install florence
[18:44] <DaneGeld> Hi guys, good evening.  I have a problem - I upgraded my kubuntu install last night from 16.04.3 to 17.04 in prep to move up to artful.  My 17.04 system won't run - plasmashell is crashing on startup and constantly respawning.
[18:44] <DaneGeld> Without being able to get to the network icon, I can't connect the install to the net and try to fix this from CLI. Anyone got any ideas, besides a fresh install, which I really don't want to do?
[19:48] <Prototype> ello
[19:48] <Prototype> quick question
[19:49] <Prototype> i want to watch something on my TV,  but my laptop is treating my TV and my laptop as two seperate displays..
[19:50] <Prototype> how do i get my TV showing whats on my laptop?
[19:53] <Prototype> wow..i just figured it out...after clicking just about everything in display settings lol
[21:22] <rgb-one> Hey
[21:22] <rgb-one> Anyone know how to pass audio to a tv screen in 17.10?
[21:52] <soee> rgb-one: via hdmi?
[21:54] <rgb-one> yea
[21:54] <soee> rgb-one: change audio output in system settingd
[21:54] <rgb-one> got some help on #kde, thanks though
[21:55] <rgb-one> yea sorted it out
[23:27] <DaneGeld> Hi.  Right, I appear to have gotten to the bottom of the problem I was talking about earlier.  I have downloaded a new iso of Artful, gone to install it, and discovered what is broken.  It's not plasmashell, it's the driver for my GPU which is causing plasmashell to die, or vice versa, I can't decide.
[23:27] <DaneGeld> valorie was helping me with the upgrade info last night, when I changed from LTS to normal distribution, and it doesn't appear to have gone well.
[23:28] <DaneGeld> Not their fault, certainly, more likely a broken module or something has gone feet up in the water
[23:30] <user|64584> Hello All
[23:30] <user|64584> Is anyone around for some help
[23:33] <DaneGeld> Depends on what you need help with! I can do some things, but nothing too complicated :)
[23:33] <user|64584> Okay, thanks
[23:33] <user|64584> :)
[23:33] <user|64584> I am having problems with the task bar
[23:34] <DaneGeld> What kind of problems?
[23:34] <user|64584> When I open several firefox's it spread them across the entire bar instead of grouping them on top of another like windows
[23:34] <user|64584> mozilla firefox
[23:35] <DaneGeld> yeah. If i remember rightly, that is in the task manager settings.  one sec while i pull up something
[23:37] <DaneGeld> Oooook. He'll be back :)
[23:40] <user|82419> Hello. I was the one just talking about help with the taskbar
[23:40] <DaneGeld> yes, hello again!
[23:40] <user|82419> Hi! :)
[23:40] <DaneGeld> Right, I haven't changed this setting for a long time, but I believe I can help you.
[23:40] <user|82419> I made some changes, trying change it. Now when I minimize firefox
[23:41] <user|82419> for example, this window. When I go to open firefox again, it opens a whole new firefox,
[23:41] <user|82419> and this window, is kinda hidden
[23:41] <DaneGeld> Right click on the task bar, and select task manager settings
[23:41] <user|82419> Great!!
[23:42] <user|82419> I don't have that setting
[23:42] <DaneGeld> ok, one moment
[23:42] <DaneGeld> what version of kubuntu are you running
[23:42] <user|82419> panel options> add widgets>add panel
[23:43] <user|82419> i'm not exactly sure. I believe 5.10
[23:43] <user|82419> how do I found out
[23:43] <user|82419> I'm using kabuntu 16.04
[23:43] <user|82419> but it has the plasma desktop built into it
[23:44] <DaneGeld> hm
[23:44] <valorie> DaneGeld: you may have to run `sudo apt install -f` where f=fix
[23:44] <valorie> and sudo dpkg-reconfigure a few times
[23:44] <valorie> along with full-upgrade
[23:44] <DaneGeld> thanks valorie - you couldn't help user|82419 while you're here, could you? I'm trying to remember how to group in the taskbar, and I've not done it for ages!
[23:44] <valorie> sprinkled in
[23:45] <DaneGeld> I did that, it's properly broken with a side of "what the hell?" thrown in
[23:45] <DaneGeld> I am gonna start fresh with 17.10 from new
[23:45] <valorie> DaneGeld: just go ahead and upgrade to the next?
[23:45] <valorie> ok
[23:45] <user|82419> I have to do this to fix the taskbar setting??
[23:46] <valorie> user|82419: if you want one firefox, why not open new tabs?
[23:46] <valorie> that's the point of tabs
[23:46] <DaneGeld> no, valorie was talking to me, user|82419 - apologies for the confusion.
[23:46] <user|82419> ohh, no worries
[23:47] <user|82419> its more like a taskmanager issue
[23:47] <valorie> user|82419: if you want separate instances of FF, wouldn't you want them individually on the taskbar?
[23:47] <user|82419> not the taskbar
[23:47] <valorie> not sure what you mean by taskmanager
[23:47] <user|82419> yes, but it stack them horizontally . I would like them stacked vertically
[23:48] <user|82419> *stacks*
[23:48] <user|82419> but before I fix that. I need to figure out why if I was to minimize this window in firefox, I can't bring this window back up
[23:50] <valorie> hmmm
[23:50] <valorie> well, I've recently pretty much abandoned FF for Falkon
[23:51] <valorie> but it sounds to me like you want a separate taskbar for firefox perhaps, on the left or right side of your screen
[23:51] <valorie> which you can quite easily have
[23:55] <user|82419> I will have to look into that browser, I have never heard of that one. Another browser I use alot is brave
[23:56] <user|82419> use to when I open ff, it would open another window on the task bar
[23:56] <user|82419> that windows would allow me to click it and go into that particular firefox
[23:57] <user|82419> now when I open ff, that bar/taskbar isn't there anymore
[23:58] <valorie> I've never heard of brave
[23:58] <valorie> Falkon is the re-branded and moving-into-KDE Qupzilla
[23:59] <valorie> it's already better IMO
[23:59] <user|82419> yea, its great! No cookies are saved, and skips advertisement
[23:59] <valorie> but it's not yet had an official release
[23:59] <user|82419> I'll check it out
[23:59] <valorie> I'm using it from a PPA which I trust
