[04:07] <liveevil> Hello all!  :):-D
[04:09] <liveevil> Can anyone tell me if it's even possible to install the fusion-icon in kubuntu 18.04LTS?
[04:11] <liveevil> ...yeah, probably rolling your eyes....compiz bs again....I know it's dead but I've noticed that compiz is still available but the fusion icon isn't officially available.
[04:12] <onlyabyte> liveevil: Is this what you're after? https://github.com/compiz-reloaded/fusion-icon
[04:14] <liveevil> That's close to what I'm after.  That's for the Compiz 0.8.x series I downloaded and installed it for the Compiz 0.9.x series. but I don't think I installed it correctly.
[04:15] <liveevil> It's supposed to install to the system tray but I just ends up in my applications list as a regular app.
[04:20] <onlyabyte> Interesting. I wish I could help you :(
[04:20] <onlyabyte> Just curious, why do you want to run compiz? Won't that replace Kwin?
[04:22] <liveevil> I doesn't replace it 100% the only thing it visibly changes is the title bar and borders.
[04:22] <liveevil> ....but I get all the eye candy of compiz
[04:22] <onlyabyte> Ah, I see.
[04:23] <onlyabyte> Kwin has heaps of effects and eye candy though, doesn't it?
[04:23] <onlyabyte> Like, I got nice fade effects and magic lamp etc.
[04:24] <liveevil> Wow, really.....like when you minimize a window you get the magic lamp effect?
[04:30] <onlyabyte> liveevil: Yeah! I'm running Kubuntu 18.04 as well. Go into System Settings -> (Workspace) Desktop Behavior -> Desktop Effects
[04:31] <onlyabyte> Should be there, under appearance.
[04:32] <liveevil> The main problem I have is that when I enable compiz my windows title bars turn white. As if there's no window decoration.  If I check "windows decorations" in compiz then run their suggested command for windows decorations (/usr/bin/gtk-window-decorator --replace) I get a error returned...
[04:32] <liveevil> ** (gtk-window-decorator:7029): WARNING **: 00:32:06.049: Failed to load metacity theme
[04:32] <liveevil> 'Adwaita': Failed to find a valid file for theme 'Adwaita'
[04:32] <liveevil>  
[04:33] <liveevil> thank you I'll check right now
[04:34] <onlyabyte> Why do you need compiz though? You can edit colours with granular control already in KDE. The default titlebar theme can also be tweaked beyond recognition. I personally never mixed KDE with compiz so I wouldn't know.
[04:35] <liveevil> cool, ok....I think compiz is too outdated. Thanks for pointing out the "desktop effects"
[04:36] <onlyabyte> Glad I could help :)
[04:36] <liveevil> =) alright bye now
[04:48] <pitto> ciao
[04:49] <pitto> list
[04:49] <krytarik> :D
[07:13] <lordievader> Good morning
[09:08] <brianwbass> hello
[09:08] <diogenes_> hello
[09:12] <brianwbass> added kubuntu 14,04
[09:17] <m_tadeu> hi....how to configure cantata to work properly with kde? I can't manage the volume with the kde "audio volume"
[09:18] <brianwbass> ]try a widget
[09:18] <brianwbass> i do it with battery
[09:22] <viktor> Hi, any news on when plasma 5.13 will be in the backports repo?
[09:28] <acheronuk> viktor: when we have new Qt/plasma in 18.10 to properly backport (Qt currently in progress), backport builds are done, rebuilds of other things against new Qt are done, and then all that is QAd
[09:29] <acheronuk> so ETA is a week or 2 if that goes ok
[09:31] <acheronuk> new Qt landing has held us back
[09:31] <viktor> okay, thanks
[09:51] <brianwbass> whats everyones pcs i have a asus netbook
[09:53] <ikonia> why ?
[10:01] <brianwbass> just curious
[10:01] <brianwbass> im running kubuntu on a netbook
[10:12] <hateball> :)
[10:13] <brianwbass> such a chatty group :p
[10:14] <hateball> brianwbass: well general chitchat is in #kubuntu-offtopic which is why there's not much talk here other than actual support questions
[10:16] <brianwbass> oh ok my bad
[10:16] <hateball> brianwbass: no harm done :)
[11:24] <jaydemir> whats the usb image writer package in kubuntu
[11:26] <mparillo> dd ;-)
[11:27] <jaydemir> really? I've never actually done it that way
[11:29] <mparillo> I was scared at first, but I have gotten used to it. The latest documentation I can find (https://userbase.kde.org/Kubuntu/Installation#USB.2FFlash_Drives_2) still references unetbootin, but that stopped working reliably for me a couple of years ago, and I shifted to dd.
[11:31] <acheronuk> usb-creator-gtk work reliably for me
[11:31]  * acheronuk shrugs at the gtk
[11:31] <jaydemir> so I'm basically running sudo dd if=/Downloads/distro.iso of=/dev/sdc2 (2nd partition of a flash drive, keeping the first half as storage
[11:31] <acheronuk> what works, works
[11:31] <hateball> jaydemir: that wont work
[11:31] <mparillo> I do not reference a partition, but the entire flash drive
[11:32] <hateball> jaydemir: the first bits of the ISO have the bootloader that goes into MBR, thats why you need to specify device rather than partition
[11:32] <mparillo> sudo dd bs=4M if=/path/to/distro.iso of=/dev/sdc status=progress
[11:32] <hateball> otherwise you'll need to manually install grub to that device, to keep the partitions
[11:32] <jaydemir> gah
[11:32] <mparillo> Assuming sdc is your thumb drive
[11:33] <jaydemir> I did it once a long time ago
[11:33] <jaydemir> but thats before uefi was common in linux
[11:33] <mparillo> You can check your thumb drive name with lsblk
[11:39] <jaydemir> yeah it seems to just want to flash to the whole device
[11:39] <jaydemir> which is largely inconvenient because I wanted some persistent storage without having to install the whole OS from scratch
[11:40] <jaydemir> onto something with abysmal write speeds
[12:16] <jaydemir> anyone know how to disable screen tearing on videos in KDE
[12:16] <jaydemir> ?
[12:17] <diogenes_> jaydemir, is that you or not you?
[12:18] <jaydemir> ?
[12:19] <diogenes_> jaydemir, there was another dude asking for tearing problems with nvidia so i thought it was you
[12:19] <jaydemir> no that wasnt me
[12:19] <jaydemir> but yes I am usin
[12:19] <jaydemir> g nvidia
[12:20] <diogenes_> try: nvidia tear free: nvidia-settings --assign CurrentMetaMode="nvidia-auto-select +0+0 { ForceCompositionPipeline = On }"
[12:20] <jaydemir> although tbh anytime I've used KDE since like 2015 screen tearing has always been an issue so I've always stuck with GTK based distros
[12:21] <jaydemir> any drawback to such a command? reduced performance or anything?
[12:22] <diogenes_> don't know because i haven't used it in a looog time
[12:22] <diogenes_> but it used to work
[12:22] <jaydemir> so you just deal with the tearing now?
[12:23] <diogenes_> i use nouveau instead of nvidia
[12:24] <jaydemir> got you.
