| lordievader | Good morning | 07:35 |
| valorie | morning, lordievader | 07:39 |
| lordievader | Hey valorie | 07:40 |
| lordievader | How are you doing? | 07:40 |
| valorie | I'm good, and you? | 07:40 |

| valorie | what a month | 07:41 |
| lordievader | Doing good here :) | 07:41 |
| CrazyTux | hello, I just installed Kubuntu Desktop. This package kde-telepathy-minimal is showing as broken in synaptic package manager. How to correct it? | 07:58 |
| valorie | CrazyTux: it is no longer maintained, so I would remove it | 07:58 |
| valorie | it's too bad it was installed as part of Kubuntu desktop | 07:59 |
| CrazyTux | ok | 07:59 |
| CrazyTux | shall I remove it then? | 07:59 |
| CrazyTux | which file manager is used in Kubuntu, by default? | 08:00 |
| valorie | Dolphin | 08:01 |
| valorie | which rocks by the way | 08:01 |
| CrazyTux | ok. How can I configure it so that folders open by double clicking rather than a single click? | 08:01 |
| valorie | telepathy used to rock as well, but all parts of it up and down the stack are rotting | 08:01 |
| CrazyTux | valorie, I'll remove telepathy. | 08:02 |
| valorie | systemsettings > window behavior | 08:02 |
| valorie | or just type doubleclick like I did in krunner | 08:02 |
| valorie | :-) | 08:02 |
| valorie | alt+space or alt+f4 depending on your version of kubuntu | 08:03 |
| hateball | alt+f2 | 08:03 |
| valorie | oops | 08:04 |
| valorie | of course, gosh | 08:04 |
| hateball | but alt+space is a saner combo and has been there since... I cant remember, 16.04? | 08:04 |
| valorie | I always use it now, so forgot the right f key | 08:05 |
| valorie | thanks, hateball | 08:05 |
| CrazyTux | btw, which display manager is to be used for Kubuntu Desktop? | 08:08 |
| CrazyTux | sddm or lightdm? | 08:08 |
| hateball | CrazyTux: sddm is the default | 08:09 |
| CrazyTux | hateball, ok. | 08:10 |
| CrazyTux | I am not able to use KDE Connect. | 08:10 |
| CrazyTux | to connect to my android smartphone. | 08:11 |
| hateball | CrazyTux: Give some more info as to what is not working | 08:14 |
| hateball | You need to be on the same network subnet to start with | 08:14 |
| CrazyTux | does it need a network? | 08:15 |
| CrazyTux | I am using a wifi network | 08:15 |
| hateball | CrazyTux: both your phone and computer need to be on the same network | 08:18 |
| CrazyTux | hateball, now I am using a single wifi network for both of them. | 08:22 |
| hateball | CrazyTux: so what is the actual issue? can you not see the phone? can you see it but not pair? | 08:23 |
| hateball | etc | 08:24 |
| CrazyTux | I can't see the phone here | 08:24 |
| CrazyTux | I have the KDE Connect app installed on my android smartphone. I am not able to find my laptop displayed there. | 08:26 |
| valorie | did you go through the pairing dance? | 08:26 |
| valorie | I find it works better from the phone to the laptop | 08:26 |
| valorie | discover > ask for pairing | 08:26 |
| CrazyTux | under the available devices there is no device shown. | 08:27 |
| valorie | on laptop, accept pairing | 08:27 |
| valorie | hmm | 08:27 |
| CrazyTux | does it need bluetooth to be on? | 08:27 |
| valorie | are the apps on the two devices roughly the same version number? | 08:27 |
| CrazyTux | to pair? | 08:27 |
| valorie | no, bt not needed | 08:27 |
| hateball | CrazyTux: are you running a firewall on your machine? | 08:28 |
| CrazyTux | hateball, yes. Ufw. | 08:28 |
| hateball | https://community.kde.org/KDEConnect#I_have_two_devices_running_KDE_Connnect_on_the_same_network.2C_but_they_can.27t_see_each_other | 08:28 |
| CrazyTux | guys, thanks a lot. I am now able to pair the devices. | 08:33 |
| valorie | not a guy, but yw | 08:35 |
| CrazyTux | KDE Connect is awesome. | 08:35 |
| CrazyTux | thanks a lot. | 08:35 |
| hateball | :) | 08:35 |
| valorie | it is lovely, really | 08:35 |
| * valorie get off irc | 08:36 | |
| valorie | niters all | 08:36 |
| CrazyTux | this is exactly what I was looking for. | 08:36 |
| CrazyTux | does file transfer between the two devices using KDE Connect use network data? | 08:40 |
| hateball | CrazyTux: it uses your local network and nothing else | 08:46 |
| CrazyTux | ok | 08:47 |
| CrazyTux | hateball, I am getting this error while updating the system. How can I correct it? https://hastebin.com/kumidilusi.vbs | 08:51 |
| hateball | thats a rather strange url | 08:54 |
| hateball | CrazyTux: well like it says, you have the same sources configured in multiple files | 08:55 |
| hateball | and W: is a warning, not an error | 08:55 |
| CrazyTux | ok. I removed one for the sources list. Let me try updating again. | 08:57 |

| BluesKaj | dock? | 12:59 |
| gkohley | in the status and notifcations area? | 13:00 |

| simulant_ | Hi can anyone help me get a screen resolution working that refuses to work? | 15:50 |
| simulant_ | so far I've tried xrandr but get an error: https://paste.ubuntu.com/26484345/ | 15:55 |
| BluesKaj | simulant_: what does just xrandr output? | 16:02 |
| simulant_ | BluesKaj: currently I've got it as high as 2560x1080 and it shows this with xrandr DP-1 connected 2560x1080+2560+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 160mm x 90mm | 16:03 |
| simulant_ | BluesKaj: it seems to be the height I can't get it to set higher than 1080 on VGA... | 16:06 |
| BluesKaj | simulant_, ok, don't think VGA can go higher than 1080, but I'm just guessing | 16:07 |
| simulant_ | BluesKaj: no it can as my old monitor I just swapped out with this new one did 2048x1152 on the same vga port | 16:08 |
| BluesKaj | my TV/monitor isn't capable of higher vertical res then 1080, using DVI to hdmi here | 16:09 |
| BluesKaj | than | 16:09 |
| BluesKaj | what about your dpi setting? | 16:10 |
| simulant_ | BluesKaj: no idea how to adjust dpi?? | 16:11 |
| simulant_ | So far I've just done these: https://paste.ubuntu.com/26484430/ | 16:12 |
| BluesKaj | system setiings>fonts>enable/force dpi | 16:13 |
| BluesKaj | it doesn't just affect fonts btw | 16:14 |
| simulant_ | BluesKaj: hmm not sure about that as I have more than one monitor so it will mess them all up | 16:14 |
| BluesKaj | dunno why the dpi setting is there | 16:14 |
| BluesKaj | bummer | 16:15 |
| === administrator is now known as Guest78011 | ||
| BluesKaj | simulant_, a good place to ask might be ##linux chat if you can't get anymore info here or in #ubuntu | 16:16 |
| Linpassion | hello | 16:22 |
| Linpassion | I whish to try kubuntu, so It's run under laptop by intel celeron 1.2gh and 4gb ram? | 16:24 |
| linpassion | hi | 16:38 |
| [Relic] | !bugs | 16:40 |
| 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. | 16:40 |
| vip | hello, I'm having problems with enabling sddm with systemctl | 16:42 |
| vip | https://gist.github.com/vip9/970d537b570614355bb1d39f2aa5e374 | 16:42 |
| linpassion | I'd lke to try so i sai...can I use kububtu under laptot by celeron 1.2ghz ande 4gb ram? | 16:42 |
| vip | needed to disable it autostarting (systemctl disable sddm) because of lack of xorg input drivers, and I cannot enable it back | 16:42 |
| vip | kubuntu 17.10 | 16:43 |
| BluesKaj | linpassion, yes it should run ok as longas you don't have too many apps open at the same time | 16:47 |
| BluesKaj | vip, which gpu? and dids you try to install the linux recommended driver for it? | 16:48 |
| vip | BluesKaj: intel | 16:50 |
| vip | BluesKaj: sddm is starting, and was working well | 16:50 |
| vip | I just need to enable it again to start automatically | 16:50 |
| vip | systemctl start sddm works | 16:50 |
| BluesKaj | vip, ok so .... ? | 16:52 |
| vip | so I cannot enable it, look at gist | 16:52 |
| vip | systemd has some issues with itself, and I don't know what they are | 16:52 |
| === himcesjf_ is now known as him-cesjf | ||
| BluesKaj | vip I had the same issue except starting sddm didn't work for me, so i had to regress to the default nouveau driver, but I'm not sure why sddm doesn't auto start | 16:56 |
| BluesKaj | nouveau driver is for nvidia gpus | 16:56 |
| vip | it just cannot be enabled by systemctl | 16:57 |
| vip | but he could disable it | 16:57 |
| BluesKaj | vip, you could try adding a small bash script in startup & shutdown to start sddm before kde/plasma loads (sudo systemctl start sddm) and name it sddmstart.sh or some such | 17:01 |
| BluesKaj | you did say sddm starts with that commands , right? | 17:05 |
| vip | BluesKaj: yes, but that's a workaround | 17:22 |
| [Relic] | is this a black screen problem with the nvidia drivers and the new kernels? | 17:23 |
| vip | no, no problem with starting | 17:23 |
| vip | problem with enabling | 17:23 |
| BluesKaj | if it starts it's enabled, it just won't start automatically | 17:24 |
| [Relic] | ok, I just know when I udpated the last couple linux images, I had to purge the nvidia stuff and can't get anything above 384 to bring up the log on screen; had to go through the terminal to do that | 17:26 |
| BluesKaj | [Relic], that's because the 384 driver is correct one for your gpu | 17:30 |
| [Relic] | BluesKaj, but that blocks the use of cuda 9-1 since it installs 387.xx | 17:31 |
| BluesKaj | you don't just pick and choose any nvidia driver for your gpu | 17:31 |
| [Relic] | which was working just fine before the last 2-3 linux images | 17:32 |
| BluesKaj | cuda is a different thing | 17:32 |
| [Relic] | but installing cuda installs something other than 384 | 17:32 |
| amitosh | If you have a optimus laptop, you can switch to intel drivers and still use CUDA | 17:33 |
| BluesKaj | [Relic], essentially they are the same driver, one accommodates cuda, the other is more basic afaik | 17:34 |
| [Relic] | one loads, one black screens with the new linux images; but cuda 9 has a great increase in speed up from 8 to 9 | 17:35 |
| BluesKaj | well use what suits you as long as it works | 17:36 |
| [Relic] | but right now I am trying to figure out why older cameras can't be detected through USB or if they are why I keep getting and IO error when trying to access them (they work perfectly fine on 14.04 LTS) | 17:36 |
| ronnoc | mesa updated to v18.0 over the weekend, and now my lock screen is broken. I have to use 'loginctl unlock-session 2' to get my session back. but not sure if it's a KDE thing or Mesa thing or how best to report it... | 17:47 |
| amitosh | ronnoc, I had this problem, seems like it was magically "fixed" by a new nvidia-384 | 17:57 |
| whereIsOverUnity | hi | 18:23 |
| BluesKaj | hi | 18:28 |
| whereIsOverUnity | Im new, where can I find a server list and import it into Konversation? | 18:28 |
| BluesKaj | server lists can be found here, http://irc.netsplit.de/servers/?net=freenode | 18:31 |
| BluesKaj | whereIsOverUnity,^ | 18:31 |
| whereIsOverUnity | thx | 18:32 |
| BluesKaj | np | 18:32 |
| whereIsOverUnity | I've got a question about my /tmp folder, I use Kubuntu 16.04 and I've this strange files: "sddm--sgIEnB" - "sddm--sgIEnB" - "sddm-:0-iPDnCa" - "sddm-:0-iPDnCa" - "sddm-authb447640d-56ae-47e1-b9cb-ac5e4305b556" "sddm-authcac8dd9c-cc6f-4f81-8de6-b028e2f62953" | 18:41 |
| whereIsOverUnity | I also had "sddm" user processes running, I killed one of them and my browser seems going faster | 18:42 |
| whereIsOverUnity | can I have been hacked some way? | 18:42 |
