| brayan | hello | 02:13 |
| R13ose | Hi | 03:36 |
| EoflaOE | Yesterday I created a USB for Kubuntu 17.10.1 by using Rufus for Windows XP. When I booted it I saw the installation screen which says to try or to install. I clicked on Try, and it took me to the non-blinking hyphen for a minute, then the hyphen disappeared. I waited and still there is no KDE 5 desktop. I have read that if I could run KDE 4, then | 05:10 |
| EoflaOE | I could run KDE 5. I pressed Num lock but it looks like the system is frozen. | 05:10 |
| valorie | EoflaOE: please verify your ISO | 05:21 |
| valorie | !md5 | 05:21 |
| ubottu | To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 05:21 |
| EoflaOE | valorie, I accidentally deleted the ISO when I was about to do md5 so I have to redownload I again. | 05:23 |
| valorie | can't you undelete? | 05:25 |
| valorie | EoflaOE: ^^^ | 05:25 |
| EoflaOE | I will try to undelete | 05:27 |
| EoflaOE | I will come back when I return from school | 05:35 |

| BluesKaj | Hi folks | 11:23 |
| calico_ | I cant disable horizontal scrolling with my touchpad as its greyed out, any workarounds? | 12:12 |
| calico_ | Hi | 12:57 |
| calico_ | can anyone help with my touchpad issue | 12:58 |
| lordievader | calico_: You want to disable the horizontal scrolling? | 13:03 |
| calico_ | yes, but it's greyed out, I cannot select the tickbox. The vertical scrolling tickbox is accessible tough | 13:08 |
| calico_ | lordievader, I want to disable it because in certain places such as in VLC - when I scroll to control the volume - the slider only goes up. | 13:09 |
| jared | defiance | 13:11 |
| jared | hello | 13:11 |
| lordievader | calico_: Horizontal scrolling is actually supported? I'd assume it is greyed out because it is not supported. VLC might mistake the horizontal motion for a vertical one. | 13:12 |
| jared | need help with linux commands ubuntu beta | 13:14 |
| jared | first time in kubuntu IRC Chat | 13:15 |
| BluesKaj | which beta?m beta for 18.04 isn't released yet | 13:16 |
| jared | oh ok | 13:17 |
| jared | Thanks Blues | 13:17 |
| BluesKaj | run sudo apt update then sudoo apt full-upgrade to the stable official release m assume you're on 17.10 ? | 13:18 |
| BluesKaj | jared,^ | 13:19 |
| lordievader | jared: What does `lsb_release -a` say? | 13:19 |
| lordievader | You might need `sudo` for that (`sudo lsb_release -a`) | 13:20 |

| jared | what is the main utility of this IRC | 13:44 |
| jared | lord? | 13:44 |
| EoflaOE | I cannot undelete, even after deep scan | 14:38 |
| lordievader | EoflaOE: What are you talking about? | 14:46 |
| EoflaOE | About this problem: Yesterday I created a USB for Kubuntu 17.10.1 by using Rufus for Windows XP. When I booted it I saw the installation screen which says to try or to install. I clicked on Try, and it took me to the non-blinking hyphen for a minute, then the hyphen disappeared. I waited and still there is no KDE 5 desktop. I have read that if I co | 14:48 |
| EoflaOE | uld run KDE 4, then I could run KDE 5. I pressed Num lock but it looks like the system is frozen. | 14:48 |
| EoflaOE | I was about to do MD5 checksum but I accidentally deleted the ISO. | 14:49 |
| BluesKaj | EoflaOE, what are you computer specs , a windows XP pc will have avery difficult time running Kubuntu on such an old pc | 14:51 |
| BluesKaj | lordievader, he's also posting in #ubuntu | 14:54 |
| EoflaOE | BluesKaj: I have run KDE4 and Kubuntu 14.04 before for performance testing, I am very sure it can run every single Linux distros with minor problems, and my specs: AMD Athlon XP 1500+, 2 GB RAM, Radeon 9200 series, KT4AV MS-6712, built-in sound | 14:54 |
| lordievader | EoflaOE: Normally you need specialized forensic tools to undelete a file. Usually a whole lot easier to redownload the iso. But, like BluesKaj says, first check if you PC meets the minimum specifications. | 14:54 |
| EoflaOE | lordievader: OK. I am currently running on Windows XP. Does specialized Forensic tools require Linux to be installed? I am running on live | 14:55 |
| lordievader | There are probably forensic tools for Windows. But that is not the point. The point is that such methods are very difficult and (usually) very expensive. Like I said, much easier to redownload. | 14:57 |
| lordievader | Does that cpu support PAE? | 14:58 |
| BluesKaj | EoflaOE, how larhe is your HDD , do you plan to dual boot ? etc | 14:58 |
| BluesKaj | large | 14:58 |
| lordievader | If not, the 16.04 kernel won't run on there. | 14:58 |
| BluesKaj | 32 bit with more RAM might work | 14:59 |
| BluesKaj | PAE that is | 14:59 |
| EoflaOE | I have 2 hard drives, each of them is 40 GB. I plan to dual-boot so I can use Windows for games and Kubuntu for work. My CPU supports PAE | 15:00 |
| BluesKaj | are you trying the 32bit Kubuntu 17.10? iso | 15:02 |
| EoflaOE | Yes, I am sure this CPU does not support 64-bit so I chose 32-bit Kubuntu 17.10.1 | 15:04 |
| BluesKaj | yes, it's a 23 bit architecture cpu | 15:04 |
| BluesKaj | 32 even ;-) | 15:05 |
| EoflaOE | I will try redownloading and when it finished, I will report back | 15:06 |
| BluesKaj | there lighter Desktops that might run beter than kde/plasma like xfce for exmple | 15:06 |
| EoflaOE | I know. I ran Lubuntu and Xubuntu before | 15:06 |
| BluesKaj | ok | 15:07 |
| EoflaOE | Thanks anyways for helping | 15:09 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | IMR3D was added by: IMR3D | 15:45 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <IMR3D> I have two partitions (Root in SDA1) (Home in SDA2) and I want to join them. How can I do it from a LivePedrive?, I mean command line and which destination folder HOME, for example using rsync. Thanks. | 15:46 |
| BluesKaj | IMR3D what do tou think the advantage will be by joining them? | 15:50 |
| BluesKaj | tou=you | 15:51 |
| === miguel_ is now known as Guest75757 | ||
| BluesKaj | there's no advantage that i can see, if your / partition is filling up run sudo apt autoremove and sudo apt autoclean to make room by getting rid of old unusable files | 15:54 |
| viewer|68740 | hi | 16:16 |
| viewer|68740 | anyone here? | 16:16 |
| BluesKaj | viewer|68740, just ask your question | 16:17 |
| viewer|68740 | i was just wondering if kubuntu has good support | 16:17 |
| BluesKaj | I sure hope so ...what kind of support are you l;ooking for ? | 16:18 |
| viewer|68740 | i'm about to install kubuntu | 16:19 |
| BluesKaj | ok, glad to hear that :-) | 16:19 |
| viewer|68740 | and I know there is no company like Cannonical for support if I have problems. | 16:19 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <IMR3D> All this time to not answer anything useful, they are useless; it is clearly understood because people prefer Windows, you make them to leave Linux. Regrettable. I already found the solution with another assistance. | 16:38 |
| * BluesKaj shrugs ... google most likely :-) | 16:41 | |
| IrcsomeBot1 | IMR3D was removed by: IMR3D | 16:41 |
| BluesKaj | good | 16:42 |
| EoflaOE | If redownloading does not work, Could installing Xubuntu and then install kubuntu-desktop package manually help? | 17:13 |

| BluesKaj | EoflaOE, http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/17.10/release/ | 17:16 |

| EoflaOE | I know the site. | 17:16 |
| TBotNik | All: Running Kubuntu 14.04 LTS on my laptop and can not get the Recently Used/Installed items to show in the launcher menu. Also this does not show .html and .txt files and since 90+% of my work is with those it must, so how do I first get the "Recent" on/showing and then mod to include my file extensions? | 17:23 |
| BluesKaj | TBotNik, you could install the quicklaunch widget in the panel then install the "items" there by right clicking in quicklaunch and using the "add launcher" option | 17:30 |
| TBotNik | BluesKaj: The Recently Installed and Recently Used are a default and I have to edit some file to do this, but can no longer find the HOWTO on this! | 17:32 |
| BluesKaj | TBotNik,right click on the kmenu icon , there are options there as well | 17:33 |
| TBotNik | BluesKaj: OK, found that an now are displaying, but how do I change the settings to include those file extensions I use constantly? | 17:50 |
| TBotNik | BluesKaj: There is also a way to change the count from the default 10 to 20 items. | 17:51 |

| BluesKaj | HansC, if you have a question, just ask it | 18:00 |
| HansC | I was looking around the forum, since a couple of days I'm experiencing a weird issue with Firefox in Kubuntu | 18:02 |
| HansC | When I right click on the shorcut toolbar or click on a button in firefox it responds after approx 5 seconds. This happens only in Firefox and Thunderbird | 18:05 |

| Fire-Dragon-DoL | hello, anyone has any idea where to start debugging a login-loop in Kubuntu 17.10? I can login with a different user, but not with my main one | 21:52 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | (I login, see a black screen for a second and get back to login screen) | 21:52 |
| memphisto | try going through .xsession-errors in your home folder | 22:01 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | thanks memphisto, checking | 22:03 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | mhhh memphisto I get 2 warnings (really the same one repeated twice) "error sending to systemd: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited: Process org.freedesktop.systemd1 exited with status 1", then it's repeated again later after settings, then "unable to find device 1" | 22:06 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | I can clearly see in my setting "DISPLAY=:0" | 22:06 |
| memphisto | look for startkde: and go from there | 22:08 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | memphisto: in xsession-errors? `/startkde` can't be found :S | 22:11 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | would love to have timestamps, sigh | 22:11 |
| memphisto | with the working user open .xsession-errors from non working user with command tailf /home/<nonworkinguser>/.xsession-erros | 22:15 |
| memphisto | then start a new kde session with your user | 22:15 |
| memphisto | when it fails come back and check the logs on the terminal | 22:15 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | memphisto: that's roughly how I did it: jumped in ctrl+alt+f1, logged in with non-working-user, less +F .xsession-errors, ctrl+alt+f7 and logged in. However I noticed I missed a line previously. The last two are "unable to find device '1'" and "QXcbConnection: Could not connect to display :0" | 22:22 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | wonder if my bash_profile is causing troubles | 22:22 |
| memphisto | im guessing you have something in you startup , some app , qt app, that is causing this | 22:24 |
| memphisto | found something on the net | 22:26 |
| memphisto | this might be it. ... https://askubuntu.com/questions/723244/cannot-log-in-after-upgrade-xcb-plugin-missing | 22:26 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | yes I'm guessing the same | 22:27 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | I did an update 2 days ago | 22:28 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | but I rebooted like 100 times | 22:28 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | to make sure it was working | 22:28 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | HOWEVER (and I might be wrong) | 22:28 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | I think I added synergy to autostart yesterday | 22:28 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | so it might be that | 22:28 |
| memphisto | cd .kde/share/autostart/ | 22:29 |
| memphisto | move anything from there to temp folder and try loging again, let the tailf cmd run so you can check again for errors | 22:30 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | thanks good point | 22:31 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | I was looking in /var/log/syslog but .xsession-errors is more useful | 22:31 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | oh they moved the stuff | 22:41 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | in .config/autostart | 22:41 |
| memphisto | ok | 22:42 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | sigh, not that either | 22:44 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | let me try a few things | 22:45 |
| memphisto | sure | 22:45 |
| memphisto | have you added some widget recently | 22:45 |
| memphisto | ? | 22:45 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | nope, but since I updated like 2 days ago from 17.04 to .10, it's a giant can of worms on its own... | 22:49 |
| memphisto | problem is that its working on another user and not in your default one | 22:49 |
| memphisto | which leads me to belive its someting in you autostart or startup configuration | 22:50 |
| memphisto | so compare $HOME/.config/startupconfig for both users | 22:50 |
| memphisto | you alrady remove everything from autostart | 22:50 |
| memphisto | so that's only thing i'm thinking of right now | 22:51 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | yeah I definitely agree with you | 22:55 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | it can't be nvidia driver or such | 22:55 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | it's something specific in my home directory | 22:55 |
| memphisto | try moving all plasma config to temp folder; mv $HOME/.share/plasma-* /temp | 22:57 |
| memphisto | and then try to log in | 22:57 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | yep about to do that | 22:58 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | startup config differs, I have a different theme | 22:58 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | wonder if it's that | 22:58 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | they joy of `diff` xD | 22:58 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | "I am too lazy to compare, letting the computer do it for me" lol | 22:58 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | so many years on linux, I'm still a noob | 22:59 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | lol | 22:59 |
| memphisto | me too | 22:59 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | OK | 23:03 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | we are getting somewhere | 23:03 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | moving .kde and .config | 23:03 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | did the trick | 23:03 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | time to narrow down which of the two | 23:04 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | lol | 23:04 |
| memphisto | :) | 23:04 |
| memphisto | have fun | 23:04 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | LOL | 23:04 |
| memphisto | bring back the .confg | 23:04 |
| memphisto | but not the .kde | 23:04 |
| memphisto | and try | 23:04 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | yes that contains a lot of helpful stuff | 23:04 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | I think I already tried moving .kde earlier, but let's retry | 23:05 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | nope, crashed | 23:06 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | let's try the opposit for safety | 23:06 |
| memphisto | what did you restore ? .config | 23:06 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | yeah .config only | 23:06 |
| memphisto | ok. so mv that again and restore .kde | 23:07 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | good stuff I backed up everything yesterday | 23:07 |
| memphisto | it will be re-crreated | 23:07 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | whoever said "you need only one computer" missed something :P | 23:07 |
| memphisto | just move it to temp folder | 23:07 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | yep yep | 23:08 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | ok with .kde and no .config I get in | 23:08 |
| memphisto | so now the fun part | 23:08 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | lol | 23:08 |
| memphisto | check the difference between non-working and working user in .config | 23:09 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | ah ah ah | 23:09 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | I have so much stuff in .config | 23:09 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | lol | 23:09 |
| memphisto | well it shoud be something with plasma in the name and rc at the end | 23:09 |
| memphisto | so check those files first | 23:10 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | mh thanks | 23:10 |
| memphisto | restore one by one | 23:10 |
| memphisto | off to bed | 23:10 |
| memphisto | night | 23:10 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | diff .config .config.bak yields a nightmare obviouslyu | 23:11 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | good night ;) | 23:11 |
