[00:41] <viewer|61319> I am on 17.04. I have no audio over HDMI. The speaker test in system settings works, but media doesn't play.
[00:42] <krytarik> !17.04 | viewer|61319: Please upgrade first..
[00:45] <viewer|61319> Ok. Thanks.
[01:18] <slicktux> Hello all, question; If I do not install the LTS Kubuntu what happens when I reach the date for which security, or support, stops? Can I update to a new version semmlessly; that is through an update; if so what is the point of LTS vs regular??
[01:19] <slicktux> Op, I found an asnwer!

[07:10] <lordievader> Good morning
[07:36] <proteus-guy> I had to rebuild my kubuntu 14.04 setup. Did a fresh install then restored my home directory from a recent backup. Unfortunately it made it where "System Settings" doesn't even try to start working. Anyone know the command line for that program so I can try it in a terminal to see what, if any, error message it creates? Otherwise - any idea how to restore that icon in my menu to work again?
[08:40] <lordievader> proteus-guy: `systemsettings5`
[08:42] <proteus-guy> lordievader, thanx - that's the (remarkably obvious yet unexpected) answer. Seems to work when run as sudo from command line. No idea why my icons are busted.
[08:44] <lordievader> Perhaps the permissions of your homefolder are screwed up.
[08:44] <lordievader> `sudp chown <username>:<username> -R /home/<username>`
[08:47] <lordievader> Err `sudo`* ofcourse 😉
[08:48] <proteus-guy> lordievader, nope that's not it. Frustrating you can't just right click and icon and check it's properties to see what it's pointing to.
[08:50] <lordievader> What you could do is drop to a tty. Stop sddm. Then move/rename `~/.config`. Start sddm. Log in. If things work at that point you can start moving things from `~/.config` back one by one.
[08:51] <lordievader> That way, if it breaks, you know which folder/config is the culprit.
[08:52] <proteus-guy> lordievader, thanx. I will investigate that option. Appreciate the insights.
[10:53] <BluesKaj> Howdy folks
[13:14] <zxq9> ooc, anyone have any idea if Konqueror is basically dead as a development project, or if there are any plans to make it more fully HTML5 compliant?
[13:19] <lordievader> The konqueror on github has commits in February this year. So I don't think it is entirely dead.
[14:11] <Frederick> guys im having an issue that after loggin in in kdm the system takes an age to drop me in kde
[14:13] <Frederick> maybe related to this: https://www.kubuntuforums.net/showthread.php/73068-No-Login-screen-only-black-after-update-today

[14:25] <Frederick> 1 sec brb
[14:27] <Frederick> BluesKaj: i dont think it is the kernel paramether i just reinstalled the machine and now it works
[14:27] <Frederick> but beeing unable to get to a tty made me crazy
[14:30] <BluesKaj> it's probly a graphics issue, but can't be sure, which gpu?
[14:31] <Frederick> nvidia
[14:31] <Frederick> i tried rescue /repair mode , no luck
[14:34] <BluesKaj> have you installed the recommended nvidia driver or are you still using the default open source nouveau driver?
[14:35] <Frederick> ive installed the recommended
[14:36] <BluesKaj> which is ?
[14:37] <Frederick> lemme check cause system update did it for me
[14:40] <Frederick> how can I check it?
[14:44] <hateball> Frederick: lspci -k
[14:44] <hateball> look at the VGA section, it'll tell you which module is in use
[14:47] <Frederick> 1:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GP107M [GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Mobile] (rev a1)Subsystem: Dell GP107M [GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Mobile]        Kernel modules: nvidiafb, nouveau
[14:48] <hateball> you're not running the nvidia blob then
[14:48] <hateball> and you probably want to
[14:54] <Frederick> oki im doing it still i disagree it is a driver issu, my connection at work is slow so it reports about half an hour to make the download I will use this time to have lunch
[15:14] <BluesKaj> wonder what he thinks the issue could be then
[18:28] <Guest28778> hello
[18:29] <Guest28778> how do i open terminal within kate editor

[19:54] <slicktux> Hello all, I've been trying to install Kubuntu with no success; I'm installing it on a brand new samsung 850 SSD; Everytime I install the installer exits with success and it's not until I reboot the system that I get the grub rescue error; I've looked up the grub rescue error and a lot of the fixes require one to mount the boot partition to /mnt and manually install grub; progblem is I cannot install
[19:54] <slicktux> grub manually because it seems the installer is only partitioning sda1 and that is it . .
[19:55] <slicktux> I'm starting to think that it may be an issue with my SSD but I thought I'd come here and see if there was a common problem . .
[19:55] <slicktux> This sucks.
[22:21] <bundito> Anyone have keyboard input lag on K17.10 while using official Nvidia display drivers?
[23:56] <navetz> Hi guys, can anyone help me figure out how to reconnect my wifi after I put my computer to sleep?
