chris1 | Hello, | 01:36 |
chris1 | Is anyone here having issues with the snap installation of spotify? It will not let me change the dowload directory due to "insufficiant permissions" | 01:36 |
valorie | hmmm, was not aware that there was a snap of that, chris1 | 01:41 |
valorie | I would ask in #ubuntu which is a much larger channel | 01:41 |
valorie | Kubuntu doesn't package or handle snaps or spotify | 01:41 |
Tin__man | chris1, Pithos is a linux version of Pandora, and it does well. | 01:51 |
chris1 | valorie thank you I will :) | 02:09 |

robertmeta | Trying to puzzle out how to set gamma with nvidia drivers for only a single screen. I can do it with the nvidia x-server stuff, but it seems like the KDE gamma takes over it, but won't let me do it per-screen | 03:31 |

BluesKaj | Hi all | 10:59 |
jrss | So last night I was playing a game. I got pissed, ctrl+f4 to get out of it. Not unusual for me. | 11:19 |
jrss | Kubuntu crashes. Computer restarts. | 11:19 |
jrss | No more Kubuntu. Computers starts into Windows, and no matter how I choose my hard drive in bios selection, no Kubuntu anymore. nothing. | 11:19 |
jrss | I looked online, found this thing, boot repair. Tried it. | 11:19 |
jrss | now grub has me in some emergency mode loop for kubuntu (doesn't boot, keeps trying) and there's no more windows either. | 11:20 |
jrss | Currently trying to create windows media tool, and see if I can use that to repair the boot somehow. | 11:20 |
jrss | no idea what happened, or why. I have an idea that the repair tool killed windows, ok. but before that, no | 11:20 |
BluesKaj | jrss, did you try the recovery/alternate kernel in grub? | 11:22 |
jrss | yes, there are four option, two "regular" and two .. um.. I think it says recovery | 11:23 |
jrss | a menu shows up, I can't move the curour because my keyboard is not responding | 11:24 |
jrss | it's backlit LED, and the light is off completely. | 11:24 |
jrss | (in this boot mode, otherwise it's working fine) | 11:24 |
BluesKaj | why did you exit the game with ctl+F4 , whynot use the escape key? | 11:28 |

jrss | hmmm maybe it's my cmos battery | 12:05 |
jrss | computer crashes, can't see all hard drives, keyboard is dead.... | 12:05 |
jrss | and most important, time zones, it always resets | 12:06 |
jrss | yep. I think that's the thing. | 12:06 |
oerheks | jrss, indeed, symptoms of a dead bios battery | 12:06 |
BluesKaj | jrss, my colleagues tell me that using ctrl+F4 should not have anything to do with grub | 12:06 |
jrss | oerheks, this you can get in any staples or best buy right? | 12:06 |
oerheks | jrss, sure, i usually take one from an old pc | 12:07 |
jrss | BluesKaj, yeah I think it's just coincidence. I can't even get into BIOS now because keyboard is just dead. won't power up from USB, no reaction | 12:07 |
jrss | oh hmmmmmm | 12:07 |
jrss | I might be able to do thatr | 12:07 |
oerheks | CR2032 | 12:08 |
jrss | but how much do they cost? can't be that much | 12:08 |
oerheks | less than $5 | 12:08 |
oerheks | but if you need to travel 10 miles+, i would check for anunused pc | 12:09 |
jrss | nah i'm in the city | 12:10 |
jrss | I was planning a walk to the library anyway, then it's like 3 minutes from there | 12:10 |
jrss | Staples that is. | 12:10 |
jrss | are there different kinds? last time I did something like that was ages ago | 12:11 |
oerheks | i just gave you a number | 12:15 |
oerheks | CR2032 .. or the weaker CR2016 | 12:16 |
BluesKaj | such a small thing can cause such chaos | 12:17 |
oerheks | building a pc, and not using all spacer positions, that also act as a electric ground point, harder to detect | 12:20 |
oerheks | :-D | 12:20 |
oerheks | $0.15 | 12:21 |
BluesKaj | yeah , oerheks I mounted a new mobo in an OEM box and there were fewer mounting screw holes than the mobo had | 12:25 |
jrss | sorry oerheks I missed it | 12:25 |
jrss | saw it now | 12:25 |
jrss | I hope that would be it. meh | 12:26 |
BluesKaj | jrss, the number is plainly stamped on the battery | 12:28 |
jrss | ok. yeah I'll open it up in a sec | 12:30 |

jubo2 | 18.04.1 is released tomorrow? | 15:22 |
jubo2 | I can hardly wait | 15:22 |
Compu | jubo2: same | 15:40 |
jubo2 | I've been told that the distribution upgrade from 16.04.4 and 17.10.something should be smooth sailing .. from 15 -> 16 (iirc) there were some major architectural changes which caused troubled upgrades | 15:43 |
Compu | and here's me still on ubuntu 14.04 >.> | 15:44 |
Compu | supported until 2019 <.< | 15:44 |
jubo2 | Hold on.. this says the release is today (at least for Ubuntu) https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BionicBeaver/ReleaseSchedule | 15:46 |
jubo2 | Is Kubuntu 18.04.1 out already? | 15:46 |
Compu | check the website | 15:46 |
Compu | nope | 15:47 |
jubo2 | Compu: URL plos | 15:47 |
Compu | jubo2: https://kubuntu.org/getkubuntu/ | 15:50 |

robertmeta | Trying to puzzle out how to set gamma with nvidia drivers for only a single screen. I can do it with the nvidia x-server stuff, but it seems like the KDE gamma takes over it, but won't let me do it per-screen | 17:15 |
viktor | Hey, any news on when kde 5.13 will be available for kubuntu 18.04 ^_^ | 18:21 |
=== RoeyOofnik is now known as EvilRoey | ||
=== kubuntu is now known as Guest36601 | ||
IrcsomeBot | <Scyt4l3> @viktor, Only in the Backports PPA | 19:22 |
=== Guest36601 is now known as oft_gegong | ||
viktor | Even in backports it's still 5.12 :/ | 19:31 |
oft_gegong | I love KDE, it has an option to swap CapsLock:Escape keys and it has the option to turn down the volume/brightness of the screen. spiffy | 19:35 |
genii | viktor: It's in the kubuntu experimental PPA currently if you're that impatient and want to test. | 19:41 |
robertmeta | oft_gegong: it is very nice, I want per-screen gamma -- but can't seem to find out how to set that via the KDE gamma tool | 19:41 |
genii | ( insert the usual dire warnings here about using PPAs ) | 19:42 |
oft_gegong | robertmeta: there might be a way to set per-screen gamma, let me check my configs.. | 19:50 |
oft_gegong | robertmeta: ~/.config/kgammarc #<---it's located at this file | 19:51 |
oft_gegong | if you edit it the screen may update on-the-fly, I'm 68% sure | 19:51 |
oft_gegong | I found the file by going: cd ~; grep -RsHIni gamma ./ | 19:52 |
viktor | genii: any idea when it will be in main backports repo? | 19:53 |
genii | It would probably be in the updates repo, and not backports. | 19:56 |
genii | Backports are when a newer application or framework are ported back to a previous version of *buntu from a current one | 19:57 |
viktor | oh okay, I was told to expect it in the backports repo | 19:58 |
viktor | so how (and when) can we (kubuntu 18.04 community) get kde 5.13? | 20:01 |
jrss | Dear people of Kubuntu. I need your help. My computer won't boot to Kubuntu anymore, and, as of last night when i tried the repair tool, it won't boot to windows either. | 21:02 |
jrss | I get emergency mode, and asked to press ctrl+d to continue, and when I do, it repeats. it's a loop | 21:03 |
jrss | help me get my kubuntu and windows back? >.> | 21:03 |
oft_gegong | hmm sounds like you disabled hard drive in BIOS | 21:03 |
oft_gegong | or enabled secure boot | 21:04 |
oft_gegong | or something like that | 21:04 |
jrss | ok update. I played around with some USB live CD (I have no idea what I did) and now grub asks me for ubuntu or windows 10. windows 10 was not an option for the last 24 hours. | 21:05 |
jrss | So I can now boot intwo windows 10. | 21:05 |
jrss | There are many things here.. I replaced my CMOS battery too... I don't know where to start | 21:06 |
jrss | and I had some beer. to make things easier. to explain. you see. | 21:06 |
jrss | >.> | 21:06 |
jrss | this is very weird. What i did is trying to create windows 10 live CD. After I restarted my computer, and tried to start from my main hard drive, suddently windows 10 became an option. it was NOT there forever. | 21:10 |
jrss | I still can't boot into Kubuntu, seems like. It boots into emergency mode loop | 21:10 |
oft_gegong | hmmm sounds like something messed with the boot loader | 21:11 |
jrss | how would you go check these, so it doesn't happen again? | 21:12 |
oft_gegong | hmmm | 21:12 |
jrss | I am now creation windows 10 "live CD" and I will create a kubuntu one as well | 21:12 |
jrss | before I try to restart again | 21:12 |
jrss | *creating | 21:12 |
oft_gegong | yeah a Kubuntu liveDVD is definitely recommended, then you can get in a live environment, chroot in, and reinstall grub2 | 21:13 |
jrss | I thikn that's kind of what the boot tool did before, but it really messed up stuff | 21:13 |
jrss | I'm not sure why it "forgot" there's Kubuntu on this computer to begin with | 21:14 |
oft_gegong | Let me tell you really quick, I 98% suck with grub2, I don't understand when boot-loaders get burned into the hard drive at /dev/sda, I don't understand it. Not to mention ext4 partitions being bootable flag in gparted, it's weird. UEFI VS legacy boot in BIOS makes things even weirder. | 21:14 |
jrss | maybe it was my CMOS battery all along | 21:14 |
jrss | hmmmm | 21:14 |
oft_gegong | jrss: you can tell the CMOS battery is going out when you go into BIOS settings and the time is 1970 | 21:15 |
jrss | so what you're saying is I should have more beer and trust everything you're saying and hope for the best? | 21:15 |
jrss | cool. | 21:15 |
jrss | oft_gegong, oh it was going out alright. but I ignored it. because I'm smart, see. | 21:15 |
oft_gegong | drink beer, get some pizza, and just install Linux Mint, j/king. I mean install Kubuntu on a USB or put Kubuntu as a liveUSB on a USB with unetbootin like what I have or something jeez | 21:16 |
oft_gegong | basically what you really need is a recovery DVD or recovery USB that has some linux like kubuntu | 21:17 |
jrss | i am coming from linux mint actually :p | 21:17 |
oft_gegong | that way you can run gparted/fdisk to work with the partitions on your hard disk | 21:18 |
jrss | yeah. I have kde partitions or what not | 21:18 |
jrss | I can use that right | 21:18 |
oft_gegong | whoa KDE has a partition manager | 21:18 |
jrss | yep, comes built in with KDE | 21:19 |
jrss | it looks nice | 21:19 |
oft_gegong | whoooooooa | 21:19 |
jrss | you didn't know? | 21:19 |
jrss | :D | 21:19 |
jrss | is cool, not making fun, happy to inform you then | 21:19 |
oft_gegong | yeah it looks good | 21:20 |
* oft_gegong scratches head "I'll probably just keep with gparted as I had no idea about this and whether gparted has other beneficial ways of using it" | 21:21 | |
jrss | I'm making the kubuntu live CD now | 21:23 |
jrss | say, besides plasma, lots of differences between u and k? | 21:23 |
valorie | jrss: yes, KDE Frameworks rather than the gtk libraries | 21:29 |
valorie | and the application are 99% different | 21:30 |
valorie | the only common one is Firefox afaik | 21:30 |
jrss | so now getting into kubuntu with live CD | 21:32 |
jrss | how should i go at repairing the bios ? | 21:33 |
oft_gegong | you could try resetting the BIOS to default settings if you've messed it up too badly | 21:33 |
oft_gegong | I'd 13% recommend that | 21:34 |
jrss | dude I have no idea how it was before lol | 21:34 |
jrss | I just know that choosing the hard drive kubuntu is on doesn't boot kubuntu | 21:34 |
oft_gegong | yeah same here I don't know I'm doing 30% of the time when I'm fixing something in the BIOS. seriously. like there was this setting to change between hardware and software controlled, I was setting that like a random binary digit | 21:35 |
oft_gegong | if you asked me what it was set to after booting I wouldn't've known | 21:36 |
jrss | hmmm | 21:38 |
jrss | I mean i can just instlal the whole thing again I guess | 21:38 |
jrss | see that's another thing. windows has the recovery partition in that hard drive. | 21:39 |
jrss | I don't wanna mess THAT up if I reinstall | 21:39 |
jrss | oyyyyy. | 21:39 |
jrss | guess I'll just wait until someone can help me with that hmmm | 21:44 |
jrss | or do I contiue. | 21:44 |
jrss | ok I really don't know what to do. Can't boot to windows, can't boot to kubuntu | 22:09 |
jrss | ugh. | 22:09 |
jrss | I think the boot repair tool is messed up. for my needs anyway | 22:09 |
