Kali_Yugahello I installed ubuntu 16.04 + kubuntu-desktop with the backports ppa... everythings fine so far besides when I boot my laptop which is connected to a second screen. my laptop turns off and is in some kind of suspension & the power light is blinking. I have to restart and leave the lid half open and hope the screen comes on :/ ... I changed "when laptop lid is closed" to do nothing. but I still have13:10

IrcsomeBot<ajyotirmay> I was trying out the Beta build of Kubuntu 18.04 LTS and I faced the same issue I faced earlier with 17.10. When resizing any window, there are times when it will flicker. It's random, and switching compositing backend to  openGL 3 didn't help either. … Using Xrender helped in removing the flicker, but then everything started to tear. Even when I forced full screen repaints, the tearing wouldn't stop. … I don't know if it's a X18:29
IrcsomeBotissue or something with KDE. I own a hardwared powered by an Intel B920 Pentium chip with no dedicated graphics. … This issue wasn't there in 16.04, and if there's anything I can do to generate more technical report, do let me know.18:29
erin-foreverHi, there!  Itl ooks like my Muon software is absent from my system, how do I re-establish?18:40
hegemon8mean muon package manager?18:41
erin-foreveryes18:41
hegemon8sudo apt install muon18:41
erin-foreverwill the repositories likely not be lost?18:42
hegemon8it uses same repositories as rest of system18:42
hegemon8so should be same repos you have using apt or apt-get18:42
erin-foreverthank you18:43
hegemon8i always liked synaptic on gnome... i just... don't like gnome ^^ so since muon came to live i was using the hell out of that, then it was abandoned a bit, but recently it got new friends that updated stuff and works fine since18:44
hegemon8cause discover... idea is good, but well, pretty but freezes...18:44
hegemon8all tho muon sometimes don't like typing too fast package name too :)18:44
hegemon8anyways, it should work fine, so - enjoy :)18:45
erin-foreverunable to locate package muon18:45
hegemon8what version You're at?18:47
hegemon8oh, wait, i know, i know that one :)18:47
hegemon8it may be in multiverse repository, that isn't on my default18:48
hegemon8by*18:48
erin-forever16.04 LTS18:48
hegemon8same as mine18:49
erin-forever:-)18:49
hegemon8so lets assume Your multiverse repo isn't 'on'18:49
hegemon8http://www.ocsmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/discover-settings-sources-visual-bugs.png18:49
hegemon8graphical way to turn it on is to go to 'my fav' discover18:50
hegemon8then click settings (bottom left)18:50
hegemon8on top-left of right side window there is "More..." button18:51
hegemon8and once clicked - Software sources18:51
hegemon8there should be multiverse sources there somewhere for You to click18:52
erin-foreverthe favorites menu does not have an icon for muon18:52
hegemon8(if there will be 2 entries, one will have Source Code in name or so, skip that one if you have 2)18:53
hegemon8cause You need to add it to favorites with right click and add to favorites18:53
hegemon8how sysnem know its your fav otherwise?:) its not google, it doesn't know :)18:53
hegemon8did you add the repositories and managed to get that muon working?18:55
erin-foreverno, i'm struggling a bit with the fav thing18:56
hegemon8You can do it that way if can't find yourself in options in gui18:56
hegemon8sudo apt-add-repository multiverse && sudo apt-get update18:56
hegemon8then sudo apt install muon18:56
hegemon8well, to add a program to favorites in default kubuntu 'start menu', just navigate to the app, right click on it and select 'add to favorites'18:57
hegemon8thats all18:57
hegemon8... but to add muon to favorites it is good to install it first...18:58
hegemon8just saying ;P18:59
erin-foreverthe install is making progress after update...19:00
hegemon8ah, then should do fine, let me know after, if something, i'm here19:01
erin-foreverok then19:01
hegemon8all tho if someone smarter want to trim in, feel free19:01
erin-foreveri will19:01
hegemon8sure, np19:01
erin-foreverhegemon8 - I got muon back and runnin!g19:07
hegemon8ah, great, i assume fresh install?19:07
=== jan is now known as Guest11615
erin-foreveryes, must be19:07
erin-foreverthanks19:07
hegemon8well if You're not RMS's direct relative, You may like mp3 and all, do yourself a favor and install 'restricted codecs and extras" with: sudo apt install kubuntu-restricted-extras19:08
hegemon8should give You java, fonts, codecs etc. handy in one meta-package19:09
hegemon8(or just find it in muon since You've got it working). Anyways, glad it worked for You19:11
Arthur_Dwhy does baloo_file_extractor take up 9 GB of memory?20:35
hegemon8it tend to happen in older versions of plasma20:40
hegemon8Arthur_D: what version You're on?20:40
Arthur_D5.10.520:41
hegemon8was on 5.12 on alpha kubu 18.04, now on 5.8.8 with 16.04 kubu... but my issues with baloo were on kubuntu 16.10?... idk... there is some results in google, hard to say, i'm no expert, and i don't use much of indexing features... hmm...20:43
Arthur_DI'm on 17.1020:43
hegemon8not a solution, but if You like to turn it off, arch wiki (as it does) have some handy info...20:44
hegemon8https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=19316920:44
hegemon8https://community.kde.org/Baloo/Debugging20:46
hegemon8and that may come in handy... sorry, not expert on that, i could mess on my system and try things, but thats as much as i can recommend others to try...20:47
Arthur_Dthanks for the help hegemon8 :)20:53
hegemon8Arthur_D: no mention (and i mean it^^ - didn't help much)20:54
hegemon8last time i had that issue, i've got rid off indexing :) (disabled it)  so not really a solution to Your problem (but when tried to uninstall baloo, half of kde was packing bags to go with it20:55
hegemon8so killed process, disabled it from some online guide and i've called it good. Sorry couldn't help more20:56
