=== kevin is now known as Guest87259 [02:03] Alguem on ? [02:13] hello [03:36] Hi [05:10] 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] I could run KDE 5. I pressed Num lock but it looks like the system is frozen. [05:21] EoflaOE: please verify your ISO [05:21] !md5 [05:21] 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 [05:23] valorie, I accidentally deleted the ISO when I was about to do md5 so I have to redownload I again. [05:25] can't you undelete? [05:25] EoflaOE: ^^^ [05:27] I will try to undelete [05:35] I will come back when I return from school [08:45] Good morning === menace is now known as Deknos [11:23] Hi folks [12:12] I cant disable horizontal scrolling with my touchpad as its greyed out, any workarounds? [12:57] Hi [12:58] can anyone help with my touchpad issue [13:03] calico_: You want to disable the horizontal scrolling? [13:08] yes, but it's greyed out, I cannot select the tickbox. The vertical scrolling tickbox is accessible tough [13:09] 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. [13:11] defiance [13:11] hello [13:12] 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. [13:14] need help with linux commands ubuntu beta [13:15] first time in kubuntu IRC Chat [13:16] which beta?m beta for 18.04 isn't released yet [13:17] oh ok [13:17] Thanks Blues [13:18] run sudo apt update then sudoo apt full-upgrade to the stable official release m assume you're on 17.10 ? [13:19] jared,^ [13:19] jared: What does `lsb_release -a` say? [13:20] You might need `sudo` for that (`sudo lsb_release -a`) === thinker is now known as thinker_mob [13:44] what is the main utility of this IRC [13:44] lord? [14:38] I cannot undelete, even after deep scan [14:46] EoflaOE: What are you talking about? [14:48] 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] uld run KDE 4, then I could run KDE 5. I pressed Num lock but it looks like the system is frozen. [14:49] I was about to do MD5 checksum but I accidentally deleted the ISO. [14:51] EoflaOE, what are you computer specs , a windows XP pc will have avery difficult time running Kubuntu on such an old pc [14:54] lordievader, he's also posting in #ubuntu [14:54] 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] 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. [14:55] lordievader: OK. I am currently running on Windows XP. Does specialized Forensic tools require Linux to be installed? I am running on live [14:57] 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. [14:58] Does that cpu support PAE? [14:58] EoflaOE, how larhe is your HDD , do you plan to dual boot ? etc [14:58] large [14:58] If not, the 16.04 kernel won't run on there. [14:59] 32 bit with more RAM might work [14:59] PAE that is [15:00] 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 [15:02] are you trying the 32bit Kubuntu 17.10? iso [15:04] Yes, I am sure this CPU does not support 64-bit so I chose 32-bit Kubuntu 17.10.1 [15:04] yes, it's a 23 bit architecture cpu [15:05] 32 even ;-) [15:06] I will try redownloading and when it finished, I will report back [15:06] there lighter Desktops that might run beter than kde/plasma like xfce for exmple [15:06] I know. I ran Lubuntu and Xubuntu before [15:07] ok [15:09] Thanks anyways for helping [15:45] IMR3D was added by: IMR3D [15:46] 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. [15:50] IMR3D what do tou think the advantage will be by joining them? [15:51] tou=you === miguel_ is now known as Guest75757 [15:54] 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 [16:16] hi [16:16] anyone here? [16:17] viewer|68740, just ask your question [16:17] i was just wondering if kubuntu has good support [16:18] I sure hope so ...what kind of support are you l;ooking for ? [16:19] i'm about to install kubuntu [16:19] ok, glad to hear that :-) [16:19] and I know there is no company like Cannonical for support if I have problems. [16:38] 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. [16:41] * BluesKaj shrugs ... google most likely :-) [16:41] IMR3D was removed by: IMR3D [16:42] good [17:13] If redownloading does not work, Could installing Xubuntu and then install kubuntu-desktop package manually help? === himcesjf_ is now known as him-cesjf [17:16] EoflaOE, http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/17.10/release/ [17:16] I am already redownloading right now. [17:16] I know the site. [17:23] 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? [17:30] 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 [17:32] 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! [17:33] TBotNik,right click on the kmenu icon , there are options there as well [17:50] BluesKaj: OK, found that an now are displaying, but how do I change the settings to include those file extensions I use constantly? [17:51] BluesKaj: There is also a way to change the count from the default 10 to 20 items. === mateus is now known as mateus1491 [17:58] anyone here? [17:58] HansC, look at the nicklist :-) [17:59] ah I see ;-) [18:00] HansC, if you have a question, just ask it [18:02] I was looking around the forum, since a couple of days I'm experiencing a weird issue with Firefox in Kubuntu [18:05] 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 [19:15] film === Zren_ is now known as Zren === kubuntu is now known as Guest80565 === Guest80565 is now known as Kububu [21:00] Any ideas what Kubuntu 18.04 is going to use for an instant messenger? === wayne_ is now known as wayne__ [21:52] 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] (I login, see a black screen for a second and get back to login screen) [22:01] try going through .xsession-errors in your home folder [22:03] thanks memphisto, checking [22:06] 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] I can clearly see in my setting "DISPLAY=:0" [22:08] look for startkde: and go from there [22:11] memphisto: in xsession-errors? `/startkde` can't be found :S [22:11] would love to have timestamps, sigh [22:15] with the working user open .xsession-errors from non working user with command tailf /home//.xsession-erros [22:15] then start a new kde session with your user [22:15] when it fails come back and check the logs on the terminal [22:22] 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] wonder if my bash_profile is causing troubles [22:24] im guessing you have something in you startup , some app , qt app, that is causing this [22:26] found something on the net [22:26] this might be it. ... https://askubuntu.com/questions/723244/cannot-log-in-after-upgrade-xcb-plugin-missing [22:27] yes I'm guessing the same [22:28] I did an update 2 days ago [22:28] but I rebooted like 100 times [22:28] to make sure it was working [22:28] HOWEVER (and I might be wrong) [22:28] I think I added synergy to autostart yesterday [22:28] so it might be that [22:29] cd .kde/share/autostart/ [22:30] move anything from there to temp folder and try loging again, let the tailf cmd run so you can check again for errors [22:31] thanks good point [22:31] I was looking in /var/log/syslog but .xsession-errors is more useful [22:41] oh they moved the stuff [22:41] in .config/autostart [22:42] ok [22:44] sigh, not that either [22:45] let me try a few things [22:45] sure [22:45] have you added some widget recently [22:45] ? [22:49] 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] problem is that its working on another user and not in your default one [22:50] which leads me to belive its someting in you autostart or startup configuration [22:50] so compare $HOME/.config/startupconfig for both users [22:50] you alrady remove everything from autostart [22:51] so that's only thing i'm thinking of right now [22:55] yeah I definitely agree with you [22:55] it can't be nvidia driver or such [22:55] it's something specific in my home directory [22:57] try moving all plasma config to temp folder; mv $HOME/.share/plasma-* /temp [22:57] and then try to log in [22:58] yep about to do that [22:58] startup config differs, I have a different theme [22:58] wonder if it's that [22:58] they joy of `diff` xD [22:58] "I am too lazy to compare, letting the computer do it for me" lol [22:59] so many years on linux, I'm still a noob [22:59] lol [22:59] me too [23:03] OK [23:03] we are getting somewhere [23:03] moving .kde and .config [23:03] did the trick [23:04] time to narrow down which of the two [23:04] lol [23:04] :) [23:04] have fun [23:04] LOL [23:04] bring back the .confg [23:04] but not the .kde [23:04] and try [23:04] yes that contains a lot of helpful stuff [23:05] I think I already tried moving .kde earlier, but let's retry [23:06] nope, crashed [23:06] let's try the opposit for safety [23:06] what did you restore ? .config [23:06] yeah .config only [23:07] ok. so mv that again and restore .kde [23:07] good stuff I backed up everything yesterday [23:07] it will be re-crreated [23:07] whoever said "you need only one computer" missed something :P [23:07] just move it to temp folder [23:08] yep yep [23:08] ok with .kde and no .config I get in [23:08] so now the fun part [23:08] lol [23:09] check the difference between non-working and working user in .config [23:09] ah ah ah [23:09] I have so much stuff in .config [23:09] lol [23:09] well it shoud be something with plasma in the name and rc at the end [23:10] so check those files first [23:10] mh thanks [23:10] restore one by one [23:10] off to bed [23:10] night [23:11] diff .config .config.bak yields a nightmare obviouslyu [23:11] good night ;) === thinker is now known as thinker_mob [23:59] AH!
