[00:19] hey === kubuntu is now known as Guest88425 [03:48] why is the discover app using so much cpu? [03:54] sigh I keep getting KWIN crashing, almost randomly, repeatedly during the day :( [03:54] and im not able to install snapds from the discover app since it is not passing the --classic argument [03:54] any idea where to look for? It might be related to virtual desktops and swapping fast [03:54] and URGH it just crashed again... [03:54] and it asks for classic confinement [04:19] hmmm, sounds like something snap related is missing [04:19] please file a bug with .......hmmm, LP I guess [04:19] best way is `ubuntu-bug discover` [04:20] discover works very well for me, but I've never tried to install a snap using it === ugur is now known as Guest72764 [05:50] Hi I am using Kubuntu 18.04 on a Dell Inspiron 7759 with proprietary nvidia drivers. It was working well with kernel 4.15.0.20 but after I upgraded it to 4.15.0.22 it started to freeze occasionally right after the boot. Couldn't find anything in google. Anyone having similar issues ? [05:54] Guest72764: I can only say I am running nvidia blob + 18.04 and have no issues. I am using 396 beta from PPA [05:54] This is on a desktop machine, no optimus involved [05:56] Guest72764, why not nouveau? [05:56] nouveau is much better [05:57] Now I removed 22 kernel and returned back to 20 kernel and everything is back to normal [05:57] Good morning [05:58] morning [05:58] with nouveau even the installation was not possible I had to disable modeset during installation and installed nvidia drivers immediately afterwards [09:15] Hi what's the use of the Twitter account type and YouTube under Google account type in 18.04's online accounts? [09:34] @batteronizer wait, What? What you are talking about? [09:53] batteronizer: If I understand it correctly, once you set your google account type, you can use kio-gdrive to access your google drive using Dolphin. You may also be able to associate Google mail and calendar entries with other KDE s/w, but I have not tried it. [09:54] mparillo_: I'm not asking about it. I'm asking about the YouTube and Twitter options specifically. [09:55] Sadly the Help manual has no entry for online accounts, and it doesn't seem to be documented anywhere else. [09:55] Sorrry, the only thing I have tested is kio-gdrive. [09:56] Yeah, I've used gdrive and pim, which is pretty cool. [10:09] how to change scroll speed [10:20] wrong channel [10:21] everything is too big, cursor, taskbar, the bars on windows [10:21] and how to stop bars from appearing on chrome [10:21] although I think i know what to do with chrome [10:24] janat08: right click on the titlebar and u can change a lot of that [10:25] janat08: for the cursor search for 'cursor theme' and it will take you to the section in the system settings [10:26] The scroll speed is changed in 'mouse' section of the settings [10:26] but also the icons are big [10:26] is there a single variable to change [10:26] which icons do you mean [10:27] desktop icons [10:27] im on uhd screen [10:27] like shortcuts [10:27] shortcuts=icons [10:27] Yes [10:27] Right click the desktop and select configure desktop [10:27] and then you will see 'icons' [10:33] Can someone check if they are able to login using the Twitter option in Online Accounts in 18.04? [10:34] chan201: I'm talking about the Online Accounts feature [10:42] janat08: you can change the size of different icons by going to the 'icons' section of the system settings [10:46] got it [10:47] I was hoping there's a signle variable that made everything out of proportion [10:48] since I might have to change screens periodically [12:04] Howdy all === himcesjf_ is now known as him-cesjf [12:29] tonioricciato was added by: tonioricciato [12:44] Why does my computer keep waking up from suspend? [12:50] hello [12:52] I'm using Docky in my Kubuntu 18.04, I'm using the numix icon themes, why Docky doesn't adapt the theme? [12:54] I'm using Docky in my Kubuntu 18.04, I'm using the numix icon themes, why Docky doesn't adapt the theme? [12:54] SOME HELP? [12:54] HIya [12:54] I think Docky uses it's own theme set, and does not use the Plasma Themes which are configured via settings === helium-3 is now known as dilfridge [12:55] Have you tried configuring the standard panel, to behave similar to Docky ? [12:55] @IrcsomeBot, THanks [12:55] no [12:55] How can I do that? [12:55] Guest72735: https://ubottu.com/y/gl [12:56] Look bottom right by the clock of standard panel, you'll see Burger menu ( 3 lines) click there that'll get you access to the configuration stuff [12:57] I know, But i wont have the zoom stuff right? [12:58] I know, But i wont have the zoom stuff right? [12:59] hello [13:03] what is the best email client for Kubuntu? [13:03] I need to get notifications... [13:03] some help please? [13:08] webmail clients likr gmail work well and thunderbird too. Kmail is for users who need large email databases IMO [13:08] Guest22966: there is no best just use the one you feel is best [13:09] I asked because some of them dont use notifications properly [13:09] Thats what i need notifications [13:09] and i asked if some of you have try something that work well with notifications [13:09] im new using linux Kubuntu [13:10] Guest22966, usually notifications are set up in the email client [13:10] ok [13:10] or server [13:10] well as im using kubuntu i will try Kmail [13:11] kmail is already installed in kubuntu, but you have to set it up [13:12] I installed With the option of minimal apps [13:12] so i dont have it [13:12] lol [13:12] but im installing [13:12] open a terminal and do, sudo apt install kmail [13:13] BluesKaj: I killed my partition but I am fine with that. [13:13] R13ose, the lvm? [13:13] @BluesKaj, Thanks [13:14] BluesKaj: yes. I used a command on a mount partition and killed this [13:14] Guest22966, np [13:14] Guest22966: I am new to Kubuntu as well, and as a long time Thunderbird user that is what I am using. It notifies with a popup when a new message arrives, but doesn't have a tray icon. If you miss the popup you won't know you have new mail. [13:15] kmail setup can be daunting to new users [13:18] im seeing that now with Kmail and installed alot of things... i dont like it [13:18] :( === frank is now known as Guest70863 [13:19] i will try mail spring [13:20] Mailspring [13:28] Any thoughts on my question? [13:33] R13ose: Have you looked in the logs? [13:34] lordievader: which logs? [13:35] dmesg, syslog, etc. Anything that can give a clue as to why it would resume from suspension. [13:41] Thanks [13:42] why does changing scroll speed has no impact [13:43] and why does mouse button 4/5 aren't bound to back and forth in chrome [13:43] How do I move files from one computer to another without using the internet? They are in the same house [13:44] !samba | R13ose [13:44] R13ose: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/samba.html [13:44] Thanks [13:44] Hello guys here again [13:45] I had to uninstall Kmail, I didnt like it [13:45] R13ose: ssh? [13:45] R13ose: If both machines are on the same network and running linux, use scp [13:46] kmail is mainly for office users who need to keep an an email archive/database of thousands [13:46] I have used SCP before but I wasn't sure if that was through the internet or not. [13:46] ok [13:46] R13ose: That depends on how you issue it. [13:46] Im like goint to used another one and try [13:47] some of you have used microsoft office in Kubuntu? [13:47] R13ose: Scp doesn't care if it is one hop to the next pc or 10 hops to the other end of the world. [13:47] scp copies from one pc to another on your lan or ssh toanothe pc/server on the internet [13:48] Yes but what are the settings for using non internet way? [13:48] R13ose: For scp, just make sure you have openssh-server installed on whichever machine you're trying to reach [13:48] genii, yes, good point [13:48] ( since it uses ssh/sshd underneath ) [13:49] Then just use it's LAN IP from another machine on the same network to pull or put files [13:51] genii: how do I know this is lan ip instead of internet ip? [13:51] some of you have used microsoft office in Kubuntu? [13:51] which one to install or ? [13:54] R13ose: Use either the ip command or ifconfig if you have net-tools installed to find out the IP of the machine you're trying to reach ( on the actual machine you're trying to reach). Or you might have set a specific IP to be assigned to specific MAC addresses in your router, if so then use whichever one you set it to be in that case [13:54] R13ose: LAN ip's are typically in private IP ranges like `192.168.0.0/16` or `10.0.0.0/8`. [13:55] lordievader: what are internet ips? I get confused sometimes. [13:55] genii: thanks. I remember that [13:56] Essentially anything which is publicly routable. I.e. in non-private ranges. [13:57] R13ose: Normally you don't have to worry about that. Simply follow genii 's advice. [13:57] R13ose: If the IP is in one of these ranges: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_network#Private_IPv4_address_spaces then it's an internal LAN IP number. Any other kind of range is it's external internet IP, but this is not usually the case if you have a router [13:58] It will usually have only a normal LAN number and the router handles traffic between the internet and it's internal IP [13:58] Thanks everyone I get this now [13:58] If the number starts with 169.254. then it's a different thing meaning it tried to find a valid number, but didn't [14:00] what is the name of the protocol an aplication has to have so that KDE plasma can restore the sessions? It starts with X*** ??? [14:00] orlando_: There is no MS Office in Linux. To read or write Office documents, use LibreOffice Writer [14:01] I now man, i mean using wine [14:01] orlando_: It can load Office documentsw from the file manager, if you want them to be saved that way also, use the "Export as" when you save them and choose whatever Word format [14:02] using wine what the best option to install i have 2010 and 2013 options. [14:03] LO Writer can read and write Office 2013 formats [14:03] ( and later versions with MS docx format up to Office 2017 [14:04] But if you're determined to try installing and running it in WINE, check their app compatibility database [14:04] !appdb| orlando_ [14:04] orlando_: The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org - Join #winehq for application help [14:06] i was trying libre office but for some reason they change some of my files and i was scared [14:06] that why im like to try office [14:06] but let me see what i can do === marc__ is now known as melting [15:20] What is the name of the protocol or thing that makes kde session manager restores applications [15:20] and those aplications that dont have it wont be restored?

[18:35] CTRL-ALT-F1 (or F4, or Fx) is not getting me to a VT on a fresh install of Kubuntu. I tried uncommenting the NAutoVTs=6 line in /etc/systemd/logind.conf to no effect [18:36] And it's not just the key shortcut, when I kill the display manager I get ...just a blinking cursor and have to reboot. [18:36] *fresh install of 18.04 [18:59] aha i see, the dm (or something) is keeping me from using the shortcut and killing it puts me at a blinking cursor _but at that point I can then switch vts_ === sysadmin is now known as VlanX === redwhite is now known as ZzZzZzzz === ZzZzZzzz is now known as redwhite [22:14] where are the wallpapers stored at? [22:15] after upgrading from 17.04 to 18.10, my old wallpaper dissappeared. [22:15] how can i find it? === xeon is now known as Xeon-guy [22:22] Hello guys. I have a problem. Whenever I restart Windows to log in to Kubuntu I find that Windows did not actually end my session on Windows. So whenever I boot back to Windows it looks like I logged off with all the programs I had open still there [22:22] That's too many windows :P [22:24] xeon-guy: Turn off hibernation https://support.microsoft.com/en-ca/help/920730/how-to-disable-and-re-enable-hibernation-on-a-computer-that-is-running [22:25] Genii: so when I restart I won't find my laptop on the same session? [22:25] This will also have the benefit of allowing you to mount your Windows partitons under linux without needing to boot back into Windows to run CHKDSK [22:25] xeon-guy: That should be the idea, yes [22:25] Thank you man [22:25] You're a life saver [22:26] Glad to assist [22:27] I remember enabling hibernation on my laptop [22:27] I guess that's why [22:29] When it's on, it makes a hiberfil.sys that has all the things that were running and re-opens it all again. Also the hiberfil.sys existence is checked by linux when mounting is tried, if it is there, mount will fail because file system is in an inconsistent state [22:32] You mean mounting of the Windows partition? [22:35] Because linux works just fine. Only had this issue with M$ Windows [22:36] Yay it worked [22:39] Yeah he meant mounting of Windows partition [22:40] I'm having trouble with The Safe [22:40] when I replace the array with my numbers, it says that they are correct [22:40] but the flag doesn't work on the site [22:42] You mean vaults? [22:43] oops, wrong chat [22:43] sorry [22:43] heh [22:45] Genii: you're right now I can browse Windows partition as well [22:45] Yes, the hibernation is a pain when it's enabled [22:46] Yeah.. Now I understand why Microsoft disabled it by default
