coderphiveCan anyone tell me why my two displays seem to have different definitions of space?00:19
[Relic]different resolutions?00:21
coderphiveWhen I go across the bottom edge on my right monitor I get a very small dip as I transition to the left monitor. When I do the same on the top it's a huge dip now.00:21
coderphiveThey are different resolutions but I've seen Kubuntu handle this before00:22
[Relic]gfx card?00:23
coderphiveWell this isn't helping00:23
[Relic]wondering if it was the way the monitors are looking in the display settings00:23
coderphiveIf anyone wants to provide an answer that's not a trolling response that'd be dope00:27
coderphiveI'm using VEGA-M graphics, but I've upgraded the kernel to 4.19. This just seems like a very silly bug.00:28
jaafarwow, 12 minutes total on the channel00:31
jaafarhi coderphive00:32
coderphiveSup!00:32
jaafarIIRC you can control the "alignment" of the virtual displays00:32
coderphiveYou can!00:32
jaafarI recall adjusting them vertically00:32
coderphiveAlignment is not my issue unfortunately00:32
jaafarwhat kind of "dip" are you seeing?00:32
coderphiveI can make it so when running my mouse along the bottom of the screen I get a very smooth transition. When I do it along the top the mouse moves down probably 3 inches on my left screen00:33
coderphiveas it transitions00:34
coderphiveDoes that make sense?00:34
jaafarI think? But to me it seems like the "top" of your right screen is aligned 3 inches above the top of your left screen00:34
jaafarBut you've said that's not it so my imagination is failing00:35
coderphiveYeah, notice what I said about the bottom00:35
jaafarif they are different sizes it makes sense...00:35
coderphiveThey are different resolutions00:35
coderphiveso I guess that's the answer then. That's incredibly sad.00:35
jaafarlike, I have a monitor that is vertical and one horizontal, so the number of pixels is greater on one than the other00:35
coderphiveyeah, that's not how that works00:36
jaafarso one is "shorter" than the other and if I move my mouse along the top of the taller one it jumps down to the shorter one00:36
coderphiveI have an nvidia desktop sitting over here that I just moved off of00:36
coderphiveIt worked fine there00:36
coderphiveI get what you're trying to normalize, but that doesn't make sense00:37
jaafarOK!00:37
coderphiveIt's just an annoyance, but still a pretty good annoyance00:37
[Relic]jaafar, I was trying to see if he had them lined up at the bottom rather than the top since that would make a bigger jump at the top rather than the bottom01:14
jaafar[Relic]: yesss, my thinking as well but he seemed to reject it05:08
[Relic]people are far to impatient these days, it is the internet and I want it yesterday05:14

jimwhat are the possibilities for getting the latest stable kernel (that was listed at kernel.org) on beaver creek?08:11
jimgot someone who says  he wants to upgrade his kernel because of some battery time issues08:12
hateball!mainline08:14
ubottuThe kernel team supply continuous mainline kernel builds which can be useful for tracking down issues or testing recent changes in the Linux kernel. More information is available at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds08:14

BluesKajHowdy folks12:43
lordievaderbauchhaus, jim: For me the 4.18 -> 4.19 transition was quite noticable. My battery drain went from 7-ish Watts to 3-3.5 Watts.14:06

IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> @aliemtakarai, Not at the moment. 18.04 has Qt 5.9 and Plasma 5.13 or 5.14 need at least Qt 5.10 to build and work.16:17

samlamammaHey, I installed the United theme and it's great but it changed the application launcher (like the start menu in Windows) and I'd like to change it back but I have no idea how to change it back (and googling tells me nothing).21:26
valoriewhat is the united theme?21:27
samlamammavalorie: It's a theme you install as a new Feel and Look. It's basically a Unity look-alike21:28
valorieyou did it through systemsettings?21:28
samlamammaYup21:28
valoriecan't you change it back the same way?21:29
valorieI've heard someone else having a problem with that same thing but they didn't stick around21:29
valorieso I never got any details21:29
samlamammavalorie: Yeah I could just change it back to the default (I haven't tried it though) - but I basically like all the rest of the stuff21:30
valorieafaik with a theme it's take the whole thing or leave it21:31
valorieyou can't tinker with parts21:31
valorieI usually use krunner (alt+space) to launch apps so....21:31
samlamammaDang. Well, most of the stuff I can do by default (just moving around widgets in panels mostly)21:32
samlamammaThanks for the help. I'm really new to this KDE stuff, did you just learn through googling or is there some really good resource that explains most of it? It seems super customizable compared to GNOME21:33
valoriesamlamamma: I learned most by hanging out here21:34
valorieslowly learned enough to help others21:34
valoriemaking my own mistakes along the line21:34
samlamammavalorie: Alright. Well, KDE is way snappier than GNOME so far so hopefully I'll get to do the same :)21:36
valorieKDE is the community21:36
valorieplasma is pretty snappy these days!21:36
valoriethe more you hang out here and watch the conversations21:37
valoriethe more you'll learn21:37
valoriethere is an offtopic chan too: #kubuntu-offtopic21:37
samlamammavalorie: Aha, so I guess KDE = Plasma + bunch of Qt Apps?21:43
valoriewell, a bunch of KDE applications21:43
valoriethere are qt-only applications some of which we (Kubuntu) provide21:43
valoriebut they chose not to be under the KDE community umbrella21:44
samlamammaYeah, distros mix and match a bit to their liking I guess?21:44
valorieright21:44
valoriewe have provided Qt stuff when KDE stuff wasn't working right or so21:44
valoriein general, all of what we provide by default is made by KDE21:45
samlamammaCool, is most of the Qt stuff Qt5 now a days?21:47
valorieyes, we're trying to get the last of Qt4 gone in both Debian and Kubuntu21:57
