[01:05] <VxM> Anyone know if there's a way to make spotify work with lates kubuntu?
[01:07] <genii> VxM: What problem are you having with it?
[01:09] <VxM> I installed it following instructions on their website and I can find it in search but it just shows at taskbar for few seconds and then disappears
[01:15] <genii> VxM: If you run it in Konsoile with: spotify     ... does it complain about libgcrypt.so.11 ?
[01:16] <VxM> echo deb http://repository.spotify.com stable non-free | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/spotify.list
[01:16] <VxM> thats what it gives
[01:18] <genii> What you pasted was one of the instructions off their page to install it
[01:18] <genii> ( and not presumably a link to a pastebin with what happens when you try to run it)
[01:19] <VxM> oh right that was on my clip board still
[01:19] <VxM> sec
[01:19] <VxM> spotify: error while loading shared libraries: libgcrypt.so.11: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[01:19] <VxM> that's what I get
[01:25] <genii> VxM: What it needs is for you to make a symbolic link called libgcrypt.so.11 which points to your actual one which is a later version. Are you on 32 or 64 bit, or a different platform altogether?
[01:27]  * genii makes more coffee
[01:28] <VxM> I'm on 64bit os
[01:30] <genii> VxM: Then please give the result of: ls -l /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcrypt*   ...and then I can give you the correct command to make the symbolic link
[01:32] <VxM> lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     19 helmi  5 18:25 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcrypt.so.20 -> libgcrypt.so.20.0.3
[01:32] <VxM> -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 924096 touko 21  2015 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcrypt.so.20.0.3
[01:33] <genii> VxM: So then: sudo ln -s /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcrypt.so.20.0.3 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcrypt.so.11
[01:34] <VxM> ok done. It should work now?
[01:37] <genii> Hopefully. Although it looks like you have libgcrypt20 series, not sure if they have compatible libraries
[01:37] <genii> We will know if it throws an error after tryig to run it again from Konsole
[01:38] <genii> !info libgcrypt11 wily
[01:38] <genii> Hm
[01:38] <genii> !info libgcrypt11 vivid
[01:40] <genii> Interesting. My Vivid box has 11 but apt doesn't know where it came from ( probably from a previous Kubuntu, this one has been upgraded continuously)
[01:40] <genii> !info libgcrypt11 precise
[01:41] <VxM> Well this is less than week old
[01:42] <genii> VxM: Did it throw some error when you tried: spotify       at command line?
[01:42] <VxM> lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcrypt.so.11: version `GCRYPT_1.2' not found (required by /opt/spotify/spotify-client/Data/libcef.so)
[01:43] <VxM> I pasted that earlier but accidentally left / at begining
[01:44] <genii> Yeah, so just linking will be no good. So now we need to remove the symbolic link: sudo rm /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcrypt.so.11
[01:44] <genii> ..and to do the more complicated procedure :)
[01:45] <genii> !info libgcrypt11 trusty
[01:46] <genii> Which is: grab the Trusty deb file, grab out the shared library file from it and put it in /opt/spotify/lib    then make a symlink to it in that spot, then run ldconfig on that dir
[01:47] <genii> Smoke, be back in a couple minutes
[01:53] <genii> VxM: Are you ready for the next set of instructions? :)
[01:53] <VxM> not yet. I found libcrypt.so.1 Do I need to move it or what? I'm kinda new with this
[01:54] <genii> No, don't bother removing that one
[01:57] <genii> VxM: I will give you now the instructions, one line at a time:wget http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/libg/libgcrypt11/libgcrypt11_1.5.3-2ubuntu4.2_amd64.deb
[01:57] <genii> VxM: tar -xvf data.tar.xz
[01:58] <genii> VxM: sudo mv lib /opt/spotify/spotify-client
[01:59] <genii> VxM: sudo chown -R root:root /opt/spotify/spotify-client/lib
[01:59] <VxM> hold on
[01:59] <VxM> that tar gave me Cannot open: No such file or directory
[01:59] <genii> Apologies, forgot one command right after the wget one
[02:00] <genii> VxM:  ar -x libgcrypt11_1.5.3-2ubuntu4.2_amd64.deb
[02:00] <genii> VxM: From that ar -x, go to the next ones
[02:01] <genii> VxM: After the sudo chown command which i gave, to do:
[02:01] <genii> VxM: sudo ldconfig /opt/spotify/spotify-client/lib
[02:03] <VxM> Ok I got that far
[02:04] <genii> VxM: If you have completed the ldconfig command now and all of the previous commands completed OK, try again with running spotify on the command line
[02:10] <VxM> Yeah I got it working now.
[02:10] <VxM> Thanks alot about that
[02:10] <genii> VxM: Glad to assist
[02:12] <VxM> though now I understand why some people find linux dark and mysterious world
[02:12] <genii> Heh :)
[02:12] <genii> VxM: Hopefully at some point Spotify updates their package to the libgcrypt20 and solves the issue
[02:13] <VxM> install-> agree -> next -> next -> done doesn't work anymore
[02:13] <VxM> yeah hope so
[02:41] <genii> I've reported the problem in detail now to Spotify's bug report system, but I don't hold out much hope there for a fix.
[06:53] <forni> hi
[07:15] <sea`> I want to run an untrusted program. I've made another user for it and am about to run it under that user. I see countless people online saying that it should be run in a chroot or a virtual machine, though. What's wrong with an unprivileged user account? I thought UNIX was a multi-user system, but if running unsafe programs /requires/ a separate machine (virtualized or not), then it obviously isn't. What's the reason for this?
[08:05] <OOPMan> Hey guys
[08:05] <OOPMan> I'm wondering if there is an easy way I can redownload and reinstall the KDE5 packages on my system
[08:05] <OOPMan> Or rather my laptop
[08:06] <OOPMan> I'm not sure what's going on but it's waaaaaaaaaaay more unstable than my desktp. KWin is crashing constantly and there are various other oddities (The cross icon for notifications missing, etc)
[09:09] <noaXess> hey ho
[09:09] <DQSII> should have stayed with 14.04.3 kubuntu xD
[09:10] <noaXess> does anybody know the state of plasma 5.5.4 package for kubuntu 15.10?
[09:10] <DQSII> not  here i use lts kubuntu i wont use plasma 5 till the next lts release im staying with kde 4 xD
[09:23] <lordievader> Good morning.
[09:25] <Smurphy> Morning
[09:27] <lordievader> Hey Smurphy, how are you?
[09:31] <Smurphy> tired. Time I go on PTO -> Snowboarding with my girlsa next week :) That will be fun ! :D
[09:32] <Smurphy> Anb you ?
[09:32] <lordievader> Nice, have fun ;)
[09:32] <lordievader> I got coffee next to me, guess I'm doing okay.
[09:33] <Smurphy> yeah - got my 3rd coffee now :D
[09:33] <lordievader> Where are you going to snowboard?
[09:38] <Smurphy> Vauges ... Small station in the French Jura :}
[09:43] <lordievader> Is that still part of the alps?
[09:44] <Smurphy> No. Jura - other mountain chain
[09:44] <Smurphy> Not as high as the alps.
[09:44] <lordievader> Ah, I see.
[09:45] <Smurphy> :}
[10:07] <ilgios> hi there! I have a problem with my pc with kubuntu. i have two network adapter. I need to change setting of eth0. I googled and the path /etc/sysconfig in my kubuntu is not present
[10:07] <ilgios> where can i modify the settings of the0?
[10:07] <ilgios> where can i modify the settings of eth0?
[10:08] <lordievader> ilgios: Under Kubuntu network interfaces are configured through Network Manager.
[10:08] <lordievader> Normally, anyhow.
[10:09] <ilgios> lordvander under NetworkManager the ip is correctly set, but if i do from command line a ifconfgi eht0, i have another ip address
[10:09] <lordievader> ilgios: Use the Network Manager to take down the interface and then re-establish the connection.
[11:55] <BluesKaj> HI folks
[14:10] <io> hi, how to disable ktorrent autostart in 15.10?
[14:10] <io> there is no ~/.kde/autostart dir in my home
[14:11] <io> there is no ktorrent entry in autostart kde control module
[14:12] <clivejo> system setting
[14:12] <clivejo> startup-shutdown
[14:12] <clivejo> autostart
[14:12] <clivejo> uncheck the enabled status
[14:13] <io> clivejo: there is no ktorrent entry there
[14:13] <BluesKaj> check in ktorrent for an autostart option
[14:14] <clivejo> do you save your session?
[14:14] <io> BluesKaj: I did't find that option it in ktorrent
[14:14] <BluesKaj> prefer qbittorrent here, it's more configurable
[14:21] <hateball> io: are you restoring your session on startup?
[14:22] <hateball> as opposed to starting with a blank session
[14:22] <hateball> oh clivejo already asked
[14:22] <io> hateball: may be, I did not check that. it's my second day with kde
[14:23] <hateball> io: it's enabled by default, so
[14:23] <hateball> (a most awful default imo)
[14:23] <io> ok. I try to close it and reboot.
[14:33] <io__> ok, that ktorrent autostart was a session restore thing
[15:52] <noaXess> where do i get information about building status of plasma 5.5.4 package for 15.10 wily?
[16:01] <marco-parillo> noaXess: You can go to #kubunut-devel if you are willing to help test via a PPA
[16:17] <marco-parillo> noaXess: #kubuntu-devel that is.
[16:17] <noaXess> jep.. i see.. and also found the landing backports ppa ;)
[16:17] <noaXess> https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/ubuntu/backports-landing
[16:18] <marco-parillo> I am sure that channel would love to hear your test results.
[17:01] <Mylonian> So windows keep flashing like 10 times rapidly before minimizing/maximizing/switching.  It's grating on me.
[17:02] <Mylonian> Is this a known issue?  I just installed, but do I need to update video drivers?
[17:03] <clivejo> Mylonian: never heard of that issue
[17:03] <clivejo> is there any particular time it does it?
[17:04] <Mylonian> It seemed fine during the live demo and during like, the first 5 minutes I was using it.  Then I clicked in Muon to install Pidgin and it froze for a few seconds so I clicked again and then all hell broke loose and now it does it always, even after a restart.
[17:05] <Mylonian> First 5 minutes after the fresh install I mean.
[17:05] <Mylonian> Lemme try powering it off entirely...
[17:05] <GreenDay> Lemme or Lemy?
[17:05] <GreenDay> :)
[17:06] <clivejo> have you the open source or proprietary drivers installed?
[17:08] <Mylonian> Whatever the default is.
[17:09] <Mylonian> x.org AMD/ATI display wrapper (recommended)
[17:09] <Mylonian> A power cycle seems to have fixed it.  For now...
[17:09]  * clivejo fingers crossed :)
[17:11] <Mylonian> So the default IM client in kubuntu doesn't support IRC.
[17:11] <Mylonian> What's up with that?
[17:14] <DarinMiller> Mylonian: I caught the tail end of the flashing issue.  From the limited description, the flashing may be fixed by toggling the composter off/on Alt+shift+f12.
[17:17] <DarinMiller> Mylonian: KDE has an IRC dedicated app call Konversation.  It works quite well but it does not integrate with telepathy (the default IM app).
[17:17] <Mylonian> Thanks for the info.
[17:20] <DarinMiller> Mylonian: Since I missed the 1st part or your post, are you running 15.10?
[17:31] <d12fk> I'm trying to configure a "Office 365/Lync" instant messaging account in wiley using the backports ppa. It tells me I need the "sipe" telepathy connection manager. Any idea what package I need to install? Searching for sipe didn't bring anthing up in muon and going through the results for telepathy in aptitude didn't indicate anything obvious either.
[17:35] <BluesKaj> d12fk, I see pidgin-sipe and pidgin-sipe-dbg in regular muon, not the default muon discover
[17:36] <Mylonian> Yeah, I think it's 15.10
[17:37] <Mylonian> And the flickering is back.
[17:37] <DarinMiller> Mylonian: The flashing issue is reduced with newer versions of Plasma.  Are you familiar with the backports ppa?
[17:37] <BluesKaj> nothing about sipe with telepathy though
[17:38] <Mylonian> I am not.  I haven't touched Linux in like... 5 years?
[17:38] <BluesKaj> d12fk,^
[17:38] <DarinMiller> Mylonian: did the alt+shift+f12 fix the flashing?
[17:38] <Mylonian> It did.
[17:39] <DarinMiller> Mylonian: Have you ever installed PPA's?
[17:40] <Mylonian> I have not!  Unless that's what Muon does.
[17:40] <DarinMiller> KDE has a backports ppa that brings new releases to older distributions.  https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/ubuntu/backports
[17:40] <Mylonian> Kubuntu 15.10 is an older distribution?
[17:41] <d12fk> BluesKaj: thanks, pidgin-sipe at least made plasma not crash any more when adding a sipe account via libpurple
[17:41] <Mylon1> Alright, here I am with the troublesome laptop.
[17:42] <Mylon1> And somehow I have a presence on this server with my proper username but I'm not sure where/how.
[17:42] <DarinMiller> 15.10 is the latest Canonical/Kubuntu release but does not have the latest KDE packages (Frameworks, Plasma, application). The backport ppa enables new releases before the next release of Kubuntu.
[17:43] <DarinMiller> Mylonian: to install the ppa, go to the command line and paste: sudo apt-add-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports
[17:44] <Mylon1> Ah, figures.  Linux still very much requires the command line.
[17:44] <DarinMiller> Then run sudo apt update  && sudo apt full-upgrade.
[17:44] <Mylon1> And I can't seem to find it... Go me.
[17:45] <DarinMiller> Not really. There is a gui method but it is more complicated to explain from a chat window.
[17:46] <rapte> Mylon1: IIRC software repositories in ubuntu has a way to add software repos
[17:46] <Mylon1> konsole, that's what I'm looking for.
[17:46] <DarinMiller> Yes.
[17:46] <DarinMiller> got run, I wil check in later...
[17:46] <Mylon1> Thanks for your help.
[17:50] <d12fk> BluesKaj: I correct myself: crashes less often... do I really have to use pidgin? =(
[17:52] <Mylon1> Holy cow, that's a lot of touchpad options.
[17:52] <Mylon1> Gonna be forever before I figure out how to tune it so the palm stops doing stuff.
[17:53] <BluesKaj> d12fk, i really don't know, personally i don't use either pidgin or telepathy
[18:01] <Mylon1> I think this KDE update is taking longer than the full install of Kubuntu did.
[18:06] <Mylon1> And now my touchpad isn't working.  Taps no longer register as clicks.  Argh.
[18:07] <Mylon1> And touchpad won't launch anymore.  I'm regretting this decision.  :/
[18:42] <Mylon> So... irc.ubundu.com redirects to freenode.  That explains some stuff.
[18:58] <Mylon> And.... Youtube shows a black pane instead of video.  Hmm.
[18:59] <BluesKaj> Mylon, install flashplugin-installer
[19:00] <Mylon> I thought that was grabbed by the Kubuntu installer... At least it specifically named flash as one of the third party software installs.
[19:02] <Mylon> But I also thought Youtube went to html5...
[19:03] <BluesKaj> Mylon, using firefox? if so then install the plugin-installer, chrome has itr's own configured embedded flash
[19:03] <BluesKaj> Mylon, not all video is HTML5 on YT
[19:10] <Mylon> Oh wow, Firefox's addon search is full of scammy looking stuff.
[19:10] <Mylon> "Youtube flash player"
[19:10] <Mylon> Just looking for Flash
[19:12] <BluesKaj> Mylon, try the frehplayer as well , some sites don't use the same adobe flash as most others
[19:12] <BluesKaj> freshplayer even
[19:13] <aboudreault> Are you awayre of any issues related to X11 with latest release? both my Dell and Lenovo freeze after the login
[19:14] <BluesKaj> aboudreault, depends on which gpu most likely
[19:15] <BluesKaj> no issues here with nvidia or intel, amd seems to have some
[19:15] <aboudreault> my dell is probably a generic intel graphic card
[19:15] <aboudreault> emm  :/
[19:15] <aboudreault> trying to see in the logs
[19:17] <aboudreault> I'm wrong.... looks like both my lenovo and dell has the same card. A NVIDIA Quadro K1100
[19:18] <aboudreault> I can see a FAULT of nouveau in dmesg.
[19:19] <BluesKaj> aboudreault, which kubuntu?
[19:20] <aboudreault> sorry, :P. I'm not using Kubuntu in fact, but netrunner-os.. just ask here since both are developed by blue systems and are similar.
[19:20] <aboudreault> I know it's not your problem at this point. I will try to figure out how to fix that.
[19:21] <aboudreault> I think I have to ensure nouveau is uninstalled, blacklisted and install the proper nvidia driver.
[19:24] <BluesKaj> nouveau is normally removed when a nvidia proprietary driver is installing
[19:24] <aboudreault> Ok. let me simply try to install it with the installer.
[19:24] <BluesKaj> usually there's no need to blacklist, but it probly can't hurt
[19:32] <BluesKaj> BBL, stuuff to do for 20mins or so.
[20:05] <aboudreault> yeah. this is the bug I'm experiencing: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=189145
[20:05] <aboudreault> a sddm segfault
[20:08] <BluesKaj> aboudreault, can you get to VT/TTY? if so run sudo systemctl enable sddm
[20:08] <aboudreault> yes, currently stopped it.
[20:09] <aboudreault> let me try
[20:09] <aboudreault> ls
[20:09] <aboudreault> The unit file have no install section
[20:10] <aboudreault> I wonder if I can not simply install another display managet
[20:11] <BluesKaj> don't think any other DM will run in systemd
[20:31] <Mylon> Blargh.  So I can't figure out how to tweak this touchpad to not trigger from palm movements.
[20:32] <Mylon> At some point I ended up disabling tapping entirely and I'm not sure how so I just went back to defaults.  :/
[21:01] <aboudreault> fixed some issues, still have this one though: sddm-greeter opengl failed to create context neither glx nor egl are enabled
[21:10] <Mylon> How do I move notifications?  They're appearing in the right-center of screen instead of right-bottom.
[21:51] <ymar> hello all
[21:57] <ymar> installed kubuntu 1510 - works fine
[22:51] <DarinMiller> Mylon: Still here?
[22:59] <Mylon> Yeah.
[23:03] <DarinMiller> did you resolve the notification location issue?
[23:03] <Mylon> I found an article that involved installing a program to customize notifications.
[23:03] <Mylon> But I didn't wanna do that.
[23:03] <DarinMiller> By chance did you change your screen resolution?
[23:04] <Mylon> Not that I know of.
[23:04] <Mylon> This article shows that there's 6 possible locations, and they currently appear at #2: http://askubuntu.com/questions/128474/how-to-customize-on-screen-notifications
[23:04] <DarinMiller> I have seen issues with plasma remembering the smallest screen resolution and displaying/centering things accordingly.
[23:05] <DarinMiller> from konsole try this: killall plasmashell && plasmashell &
[23:05] <DarinMiller> That will restart your plasma shell.
[23:05] <DarinMiller> then, to check notifications, run this from the konsole: kdialog --title syslog --passivepopup "foo" 2
[23:06] <Mylon> Or you could just say my name in chat because Pidgin uses notifications.  :3
[23:07] <DarinMiller> ok, I will have to give pidgin a spin.  I have not tried it in years but I liked it when I used to use it.
[23:07] <Mylon> It supports damn near everything.
[23:08] <DarinMiller> I saw they supported MS protocols which would be handy for work IM's.
[23:08] <Mylon> I just had a problem in Windows where it would occasionally need a restart after a few weeks because it ran out of memory or would end up eating a processor.
[23:09] <Mylon> But that could have been the windows GUI they used.  I forget the name of it...
[23:10] <Mylon> So after killing Plasmashell and relaunching it, I seem to lack a taskbar.
[23:11] <DarinMiller> ensure to exit konsole by typing exit. Otherwise, it will kill all child processes launched from the shell.
[23:11] <DarinMiller> use alt-spacebar to launch krunner and type: plasmashell
[23:12] <Mylon> I typed plasmashell + enter into the alt-spacebar widget that popped up and nothing happened.
[23:12] <DarinMiller> Clarification: Clicking on the the windows controls to close konsole kills the child processes.
[23:13] <DarinMiller> type alt-spacebar and type konsole
[23:13] <Mylon> Nothing.
[23:13] <DarinMiller> then type "plasmashell &"
[23:13] <Mylon> The konsole doesn't pop up.
[23:15] <DarinMiller> why typing in the widget, does it bring up a list of matching items as you type?
[23:16] <DarinMiller> why = when
[23:16] <Mylon> No, I just see a box I can type into and nothing happens except what I type appears in the box.
[23:17] <Mylon> So yeah, I seem to be stuck with the windows I have open.
[23:18] <DarinMiller> the little box is called krunner.  it's supposed to match anything it can find on your computer with the text that you type... but krunner seems to be misbehaving.
[23:18] <Mylon> I can get a console by hitting alt-f1, but I don't think that's what I want.
[23:18] <DarinMiller> by chance did you assign a keyboard shortcut to open konsole?
[23:18] <Mylon> ctrl-alt f1
[23:18] <Mylon> Not that I know of.
[23:20] <DarinMiller> you could try the killall plasmashell && plasmashell & from the ctrl-alt-f1 but I don't think it will work as it will not see the necessary components.
[23:23] <Mylon> Huh, so I log in to the other workstation or whatever it's called and it says ** system update required **
[23:23] <Mylon> Err
[23:23] <Mylon> System restart.
[23:23] <Mylon> So maybe I should just reboot.
[23:24] <DarinMiller> I think at this point I would recommend a reboot.  Close down everything, drop to the ctrl+alt+f1 prompt and type reboot.
[23:24] <Mylon> 'k, brb.
[23:24] <DarinMiller> you could also stop sddm and then restart it, but reboots are typically pretty fast.
[23:27] <Mylon> Alright, notifications appear in bottom-right.
[23:28] <DarinMiller> cool
[23:28] <Mylon> Thanks for helping me out.
[23:28] <Mylon> Now my next task... Figure out how to get palmsense on my touchpad to work right.
[23:28] <DarinMiller> np.  The commands  I gave should not have caused to many problems.
[23:29] <Mylon> I just tried alt-space and it works as it should.
[23:29] <Mylon> Showing stuff as I type.
[23:34] <DarinMiller> What model of laptop do you have?
