=== naught101_ is now known as naught101 [07:01] Good morning === nameless is now known as Guest39727 [10:01] 'Morning folks === juboxi is now known as jubo2 [10:53] hi, under nvidia KMail & Okular are getting pixelated font scaling, any ideas ? [10:54] Kmail for example: he menu for Folders & the email list works fine, but the mail content window, including the header is completely pixelated ( as if zooming into a jpg text ) [10:54] on my integrated intel graphics, I don't have this problem [10:55] (using nvidia driver 390.25 ) === nameless is now known as Guest72800 [10:58] ahh Optimus hybrid gpu system I bet [10:59] proctrap, ^ [11:01] assume you have nvidia-prime installed, proctrap [11:03] BluesKaj: yes [11:04] ( although sadly the graphics performance under nvidia isn't that good -.- at least full opengl / cuda support) [11:04] in firefox & every other application it looks okay, but in kmail I can't get it to non pixeling [11:05] and ocular pixelates when you're zooming a little bit, which is totally fine under intel [11:05] [ Force Fonts DPI 112 | Display Scale 1.2 ] [11:10] dpi 112 , isn't that a little high for a laptop ? [11:12] default is usually 96 dpi ...best to set the resolutiuon or your fonts a bit higher instead [11:21] where can I increase the font resolution ? [11:21] I'm using a high dpi setting to force bigger fonts, otherwise the scaling goes awkward [11:21] proctrap: alt+space, search fonts [11:21] systemsettings fonts [11:22] so, just increase the size of all of them ? [11:22] that's messy and I've tried that once [11:23] as I don't see a "resolution" option, just size [11:23] proctrap, correction: system settings>appearance>fonts [11:24] yes [11:24] but there is no "resolution" option [11:24] proctrap, which Kubuntu OS are you running? [11:24] all I can do, is to manuall increase every font size by at least 2 [11:24] KUbuntu 17.10 [11:24] resolution is in system settings>monitor and display [11:25] I'm not sure I get you [11:25] I can increase the display scaling [11:25] but then all my fonts are still as tiny as I started with [11:25] so I can't read anything [11:26] display resolution is on max, as per default full HD [11:27] did you try to increase the fonts in system settings>fonts [11:27] ? [11:27] so you mean increasing all font sizes ? [11:27] yes [11:27] I' [11:27] ve tried that once, but it was really messy to override verything manually [11:28] gonna reboot [11:29] no need to reboot [11:29] it seems like konversation is using the biggest font ?! looks like a headline now [11:29] just konversations fonts can be set with in the app itself [11:30] think this guy isn't too familiar with kde/plasma [11:31] ok so this was kind of getting the same result as with a higher DPI scaling seting [11:31] now everything looks like when I started this conversation [11:31] but KMail message window is still a pixelated thing [11:31] konversations fonts can be set with in the app itself [11:33] https://s14.postimg.org/jrsidgupt/Screenshot_20180309_123246.png [11:33] no zooming [11:33] look in settings>configure konversation>fonts [11:33] so the issue is still here, kmail/okular have messed up fonts for content [11:34] BluesKaj: after a reboot konversation is fine now [11:34] but the initial problem: KMail & Okular having messed up font scaling under Nvidia is still there [11:34] see my screenshot [11:35] the ui (to the left) is completely fine, but the message window (see header & message) is pixelated [11:35] and this is only happening under nvidia [11:35] well dunno much about kmail since i don't use it [11:35] but your screenshot doesn't show in that url [11:36] https://postimg.org/image/7px4jblh9/ [11:36] works in private mode here also [11:36] ok I see it now [11:37] same thing with okular, text rendering is off [11:38] which nvidia gpu ? [11:45] BluesKaj: GTX 965M [11:49] ok, that uses the 390 alright [11:53] ? some specification [11:56] argh now I've to increase the font for other programs, seems like the DPI switch was a fast although apparently messy trick [11:56] it's the general driver for most non legacy nvidias atm [11:57] proctrap: are you using any form of hinting for your fonts? [11:57] using full hinting I've had some weird rendering issues [11:59] hateball: not that I would know about, and I can't find that under fonts [11:59] it's not just fonts [12:00] it's like everything that seems to be "direct" rendered or something like that [12:00] the logout/shutdown screen for example is also pixelated [12:00] from the logos to the fonts [12:00] or the display scaling option [12:01] https://postimg.org/image/rr1gmcril/ [12:02] https://postimg.org/image/wpoz0y871/ [12:02] [ click on view image for non scaled view ] [12:04] I don't know the architecture exactly but that looks like some stuff is rendered differently (prob. X11 vs KWin ?! ) [12:04] and for example X11 is messing up scaling [12:04] kwin uses X11 [12:05] yes but does stuff on it's own IIRC [12:20] loving my kubuntu .. hating its relationship to my hp printer scanner [12:20] i got my printer to print using the generic (en) drivers and giving it an ip on the local network [12:21] now i am trying to get scanlite or simple scan to see the scanner [12:21] scanlite throws and error before i get a chance to add and settings to it [12:22] opening the selected scanner faild [12:26] yeah i have thr HP envy 4500 all-in-one printer/scanner ...haven't found any app yet that works in scan mode , even the hplip-3.17.11.run driver doesn't do anything except print [12:28] BluesKaj: found the culprit [12:29] display scaling is completely broken for nvidia [12:29] without it everythign works [12:29] but I'll get back to font DPI enforcement, as some java applications are just too tiny without it [12:31] when i go to the hp site for my printer they send me into a linux black hole that says its all in hplip unless it isnt and then screw you [12:32] guess i should have verified the device with linux before i bought it [12:32] laser jet pro mfp m125nw [12:32] not here, I downloaded the driver from sourceforge link which is provided by HP [13:45] another question: I want to run a script as root on login [13:45] there are countless answers, my problem: the solution with /etc/pam.d/login does not work under Kubuntu [13:46] (it does not work with the KDE login to be precise, virtual terminal works fine) [13:52] I am still figuring out if I can achieve the same with systemd, but afaik systemd doesn't know anything about user logins [13:52] (graphical) [14:22] ok so I managed to use ~/.config/autostart-scripts but what I need is "/shutdown-scripts" [14:55] ok found it, all these legacy folders from which various programs read stuff are a mess [15:06] WossMan was added by: WossMan === Guest69154 is now known as Haudegen === chili is now known as Guest97730 === nameless is now known as Guest4431 [20:18] hello. i moved yesterday config file with "mv" command, but i thought i made "cp" and did ovverride my important server config...
