kalikatz | is there a wiget or clean solution to display the /syslog with a transparent background. Instead of using a konsole with borders and such? | 00:15 |
---|---|---|
keithzg[m] | kalikatz: There's certainly widgets out there, for instance https://store.kde.org/p/1169451/. You could also just open up a konsole window and remove the borders :D | 00:30 |
kalikatz | thanks keithzg[m]m ill look into it, was feeling lazy and went through the widgets in the list and didnt see anything. was hoping something was already implemented that I have overlooked. | 00:33 |
keithzg[m] | kalikatz: Yeah the Termoid widget should work fine, and I do believe there are others, thanks in no small part to qmltermwidget, so I think you'll also need to install https://github.com/Swordfish90/qmltermwidget | 00:36 |
Edisto | in 18.04 what setting do I need to change to make it required to login when switching users? | 01:41 |
Edisto | when I do ctrl + alt + f1 or f2 it just switches without login prompt | 01:42 |
Perdellian | keithzg[m]: that was my main takeway | 01:43 |
Perdellian | I also note a lack of signal-desktop available by default except by snap | 01:43 |
Perdellian | same with skype (a group I'm in uses it for meetings. don't judge me) | 01:44 |
keithzg[m] | Perdellian: That's not quite true, Signal actually has their own Debian/Ubuntu repository for the desktop app, instructions are up at https://signal.org/download/ | 01:45 |
Perdellian | (I'd prefer that we all use Signal for our chats instead of groupme and something a bit more privacy-friendly than skype for video conferencing, but I have yet to win those political arguments) | 01:45 |
Perdellian | keithzg[m]: hah! I'm so used to the "check AUR" mentality that I didn't even think to look for that | 01:46 |
Perdellian | yay! | 01:46 |
Perdellian | or, olderschool, pacaur! | 01:46 |
Perdellian | ;) | 01:46 |
keithzg[m] | Hah! | 01:46 |
* Perdellian is going to miss some things about Arch, but it doesn't really fit ther use-case at this point in their life | 01:47 | |
Perdellian | hrm... their repo is xenial? | 01:49 |
* Perdellian is on cosmic | 01:50 | |
Perdellian | keithzg[m]: coming from a rolling-release distro... how much does that matter? | 01:52 |
keithzg[m] | Perdellian: Not much, I mean the Signal desktop app is just an Electron app anyways I don't think it has many real dependencies. | 01:52 |
keithzg[m] | Perdellian: Yeah looks like it just requires gconf2, gconf-service, libnotify4, libappindicator1, libxtst6, libnss3, libasound2, libxss1---and no specific versions required for each. Certainly I know it works fine on Bionic and Cosmic for me! | 01:53 |
Perdellian | alrighty | 01:54 |
keithzg[m] | (I mean, as fine as a damned Electron app can work; GTK is still hilariously inept at scaling on displays, unfortunately, and the Electron developers made the original sin of going with GTK rather than Qt, amongst admittedly many other mistakes ;)) | 01:54 |
Perdellian | *snrk* | 02:00 |
Perdellian | cute | 02:00 |
Perdellian | now to see if it needs to be re-paired | 02:00 |
grady | if i create only samba user, how i manage its file permissions | 10:32 |
grady | eh, wrong channel :P | 10:32 |

IrcsomeBot | <Anarchotaoist> Hello! Ubuntu 18.10 is supposed to have support in the kernal for fingerprint scanners - yes? Does this apply to Kubuntu also? How do you activate it if so? Thanks! | 12:33 |
hateball | Anarchotaoist are you still here? | 13:28 |
hateball | Might I suggest using a normal IRC client so it's easier to hilight you? :p | 13:29 |

* Perdellian ponders the default fonts and the difference from Deja Vu Sans | 17:51 | |
IrcsomeBot | <Anarchotaoist> @hateball, Sorry! I sent to bed. IRC? Konversation rather than Telegram? | 22:24 |
valorie | @Anarchotaoist I use konversation however there are many clients | 22:40 |
valorie | I have telegram but only use it on my phone for the most part | 22:40 |
keithzg[m] | Konversation is great! Riot.im is also a good midpoint between Telegram and IRC, but of course I would say that, as a guy who runs his own Matrix server to use with Riot.im ;) | 23:01 |
IrcsomeBot | <wizzyceiro> i use hexchat for irc, i used to use discord as my main chat platform but i quit bc of them collecting data + their tos | 23:27 |
IrcsomeBot | <wizzyceiro> telegram is my main now but i may hop onto irc sometimes | 23:27 |
