[03:41] <TheRinger> hey is the option to download plasma widgets from the desktop not enabled yet ? I'm getting a Network error (203)
[03:42] <TheRinger> Also, how the heck do i access preferences for the konsole on 15.04
[03:42] <TheRinger> I liked being able to scroll my mouse while holding control to increase the font size
[04:12] <Coldfusionstorm> hi everybodu
[04:12] <Coldfusionstorm> *Everybody
[04:12] <Coldfusionstorm> i isntalled KDE on top of Ubuntu
[04:12] <Coldfusionstorm> and im stuck with the Ubuntu Login Manager
[04:12] <Coldfusionstorm> how would i go about changeing this?
[04:48] <jussi> Coldfusionstorm: system settings, startup and shutdown, login screen I think is the correct place
[04:49] <Coldfusionstorm> that dosn't work
[04:50] <jussi> Coldfusionstorm: ahh, you could then try from the command line, sudo dpkg --reconfigure lightdm
[04:51] <jussi> err wait
[04:51] <jussi> Coldfusionstorm:  sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm
[04:52] <Coldfusionstorm> that command vies me not output
[04:52] <Coldfusionstorm> and i think i already tried it ealier
[04:52] <jussi> Coldfusionstorm: sudo dpkg-reconfigure sddm
[04:52] <Coldfusionstorm> dpkg-query: package 'sddm' is not installed and no information is available
[04:53] <jussi> ahh, how did you install your kubuntu? with the kubuntu desktop package?
[04:53] <Coldfusionstorm> i don't quite remember that is some time ago
[04:53] <Coldfusionstorm> vyt ueah
[04:53] <Coldfusionstorm> But yeah i think
[04:54] <Coldfusionstorm> i did not use a CD,USB, device
[04:54] <jussi> maybe try reinstall it to ensure you have all the dependencies
[04:55] <Coldfusionstorm> hmm
[04:55] <Coldfusionstorm> just the login imanager or the entire Kubuntu package?
[04:57] <jussi> the entire kubuntu (it wont reinstall everything, just the meta package and any missing deps)
[04:57] <jussi> sudo apt-get install --reinstall kubuntu-desktop
[05:03] <jussi> Coldfusionstorm: did it help at all?
[05:03] <Coldfusionstorm> 2 sec
[05:03] <Coldfusionstorm> let me restart
[05:05] <Coldfusionstorm> hm
[05:05] <Coldfusionstorm> did not seem to work
[05:06] <Coldfusionstorm> i think il try downloading the Plasma 5 release and do a full install
[05:06] <jussi> ok, and if you reconfigure lightdm now?
[05:06] <Coldfusionstorm> from a Kubuntu
[05:06] <Coldfusionstorm> 750JW:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm
[05:06] <Coldfusionstorm> Still no output
[05:06] <jussi> yes, although you may want to also install the sddm package, as kubuntu now uses sddm
[05:07] <Coldfusionstorm> if i download a bootable Plsama 5 disk
[05:07] <Coldfusionstorm> i assume everything is configed correct from the get go right?
[05:07] <jussi> I beleive so :)
[05:08] <jussi> If you reinstall from that disk
[05:08] <Coldfusionstorm> eh
[05:08] <Coldfusionstorm> i looked at the bug list
[05:08] <Coldfusionstorm> i think im better off waiting for next release
[05:08] <Coldfusionstorm> and then do a full install there
[05:09] <Coldfusionstorm> to get rid of Old Ubuntu deps
[05:09] <jussi> yeah, likely
[05:16] <Coldfusionstorm> Thanks for the Help Jussi :)
[05:26] <jussi> Coldfusionstorm: youäre welcome  :)
[05:45] <Coldfusionstorm> im crying inside
[05:45] <Coldfusionstorm> so a application
[05:45] <Coldfusionstorm> fails to boot properly
[05:46] <Coldfusionstorm> and the only way to get to desktop is to reboot
[05:46] <Coldfusionstorm> because LigthDM ( i guess) just does not work
[05:46] <Coldfusionstorm> At least in windows the driver can restart
[05:47] <Coldfusionstorm> im not sure if it's X or Lightdm i hate there
[05:47] <Coldfusionstorm> it's proprely X
[05:48] <valorie> what kubuntu version, Coldfusionstorm?
[05:48] <Coldfusionstorm> 14.10
[05:48] <valorie> ah
[05:48] <valorie> it caused me problems too, so I switched to SDDM
[05:48] <Coldfusionstorm> im switching right now then
[05:49] <Coldfusionstorm> because everytime a graphic app hicksup a little
[05:49] <Coldfusionstorm> ligthdm goes sdrfgkjdthsgkdjsg
[05:49] <valorie> I had to purge lightdm as well
[05:49] <valorie> evidently it doesn't play nice with others
[05:49] <Coldfusionstorm> how did you do it?
[05:49] <Coldfusionstorm> command line only
[05:49] <Coldfusionstorm> or Ubuntu software center
[05:50] <valorie> I did commandline, as I recall
[05:51] <valorie> oddly enough, I had to remove KDM as well
[05:51] <valorie> although afaik it was never installed
[05:51] <Coldfusionstorm> strange
[05:51] <valorie> bizarre, even
[05:51] <valorie> but things worked fine once SDDM was alone
[05:52] <Coldfusionstorm> using apt-get isntall SDDM
[05:52] <Coldfusionstorm> did not get me anywhere
[05:52] <valorie> `sudo apt install sddm` didn't work?
[05:53] <Coldfusionstorm> nope
[05:53] <valorie> what was the output?
[05:53] <Coldfusionstorm> http://pastebin.com/3ZedPs31
[05:54] <valorie> uh
[05:54] <valorie> please do `sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade`
[05:54] <Coldfusionstorm> just did
[05:54] <Coldfusionstorm> same result
[05:55] <Coldfusionstorm> not availlable
[05:55] <Coldfusionstorm> but is refered byt another package
[05:55] <valorie> ok, sudo apt install -f
[05:55] <valorie> did upgrade, or do a fresh install?
[05:55] <Coldfusionstorm> sudo apt install -f
[05:56] <Coldfusionstorm> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[05:56] <valorie> oh good lord
[05:56] <valorie> upgrade, or a fresh install?
[05:57] <Coldfusionstorm> upgrade
[05:57] <valorie> hmmm
[05:57] <valorie> and this is not plasma 5, correct?
[05:57] <valorie> just vanilla 14.10
[05:58] <Coldfusionstorm> well, i did start on a plasma 5 guide once
[05:58] <Coldfusionstorm> but it just updated to 14.10
[05:58] <Coldfusionstorm> and i just ditched it there
[05:58] <valorie> hmmm
[05:58] <Coldfusionstorm> it did not seem it actually intalled any 5.0 stuff
[05:59] <Coldfusionstorm> when it updated to 14.10
[05:59] <valorie> so do you have plasma-next ppa?
[06:00] <Coldfusionstorm> Under "other softwares" in Software sources
[06:00] <Coldfusionstorm> under muon manager
[06:00] <valorie> ok
[06:00] <Coldfusionstorm> only 2 checkboxed are checked
[06:00] <Coldfusionstorm> and no
[06:00] <valorie> so the canonical source says:
[06:00] <valorie> sudo apt-add-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/next
[06:00] <valorie> sudo apt update
[06:01] <valorie> sudo apt install kubuntu-plasma5-desktop
[06:01] <valorie> sudo apt full-upgrade
[06:01] <valorie> sudo reboot  [save any work first, sorry no elegant way to reboot]
[06:01] <valorie> https://community.kde.org/Plasma/Packages#Kubuntu
[06:01] <Coldfusionstorm> ehh
[06:01] <Coldfusionstorm> no
[06:01] <Coldfusionstorm> plasma 5 is not referenced
[06:02] <Coldfusionstorm> and
[06:02] <Coldfusionstorm> http://imagebin.ca/v/1sj2al6T5c86
[06:02] <Coldfusionstorm> this is how it looks
[06:05] <valorie> I"m not sure what to advise
[06:05] <Coldfusionstorm> alright, well im downloading the 14.4 LTS Kubuntu iso now
[06:06] <valorie> when I did my upgrade I had already gotten rid of the neon I was using previously, but I figured left-overs from that caused my difficulties
[06:06] <Coldfusionstorm> hopefully that will make stuff work reliably
[06:06] <Coldfusionstorm> then was it?
[06:06] <valorie> I just had to go through the above steps two or three times
[06:06] <Coldfusionstorm> ah
[06:06] <Coldfusionstorm> well, il just reinstall
[06:06] <Coldfusionstorm> this distro started out as ubuntu
[06:06] <jussi> Coldfusionstorm: quick question, when you tried to install sddm, you did use lower case sddm, not SDDM ?
[06:06] <valorie> but I have a working install, and it has been working well ever since the opening weekend of release
[06:07] <Coldfusionstorm> eh
[06:07] <jussi> [07:52:21] <Coldfusionstorm> using apt-get isntall SDDM
[06:07] <valorie> hmmm
[06:07] <jussi> needs to be sudo apt-get install sddm
[06:07] <Coldfusionstorm> frederick@frederick-G750JW:~$ sudo apt-get install sddm
[06:08] <Coldfusionstorm> it is
[06:08] <Coldfusionstorm> still not working
[06:08] <jussi> ok, good, just checking
[06:08] <Coldfusionstorm> sure
[06:08] <valorie> do you have any suggestions, jussi?
[06:08] <jussi> did you purge lightdm as well, as valorie indicated?
[06:08]  * valorie is out of ideas
[06:09] <jussi> sudo apt-get remove --purge lightdm
[06:09] <Coldfusionstorm> im using lightdm right now
[06:09] <Coldfusionstorm> would purging not be bad if im running it?
[06:12] <Coldfusionstorm> i love my new 4g connection
[06:12] <Coldfusionstorm> Even at 3g speeds (cus im in the contry) i still get 25/mbit down
[06:47] <smrtgyzz> looking for kubuntu nvidia drivers for 3D controller: NVIDIA Corporation GM108M [GeForce 840M] (rev a2)

[07:19] <Coldfusionstorm> morning
[08:25] <BernhardS> hey, does anyone know in which package the KF5Plasma dev files are?
[09:12] <lordievader> Good morning.
[12:14] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[12:41] <rottingdead> Heya's!!
[12:43] <BluesKaj> nice nick :)
[12:43] <rottingdead> Yeah, I get that a lot, lol..
[13:25] <mparillo> Downloading the 32-bit RC ISO.  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/VividVervet/Beta1/Kubuntu is drafted.
[14:48] <Guest96493> how i change server?
[14:48] <Guest96493> and nick?
[14:49] <lordievader> Guest96493: Read the documentation of your client.

[16:45] <ty812> I have an issue involving the IM services. I get two notifications for every inbound message, and if I click the wrong one, I get a grey telepathy window (and subsequently have to close the account and reopen it to chat)
[17:44] <Aren> ok, got the ubi-partman exit with error 141
[17:49] <Aren> curious why this has been allowed to remiain unsolved given that it affects every distro & version
[17:50] <lordievader> Aren: I've rarely seen that error, if at all. Some special disk setup?
[17:51] <Aren> really? i found it every where with a quick web search...
[17:55] <Aren> no, standard install on a hp sleekbook 4 windows 8.1 stable ubuntu, kubuntu, & vivid
[17:56] <lordievader> Aren: Bug 1302694?
[17:58] <Aren> was listed multiple times under diff bug reports, maybe i should have written them all down
[17:58] <lordievader> Aren: Please do confirm it for 14.04(?) too.
[18:05] <Aren> read that link, seems what is happening is permissions / ownership issues unable to wwrite to create logs files etc
[18:11] <lordievader> Aren: "UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xe9 " is not a permission error.
[18:12] <lordievader> Aren: Add your findings ;)
[19:00] <Aren> distro installation error prtman crashed exit error code 141, would like to chat with somebody about this to solve
[19:02] <mparillo> Is anybody dual+ booting. I loaded Kubuntu on a machine with Linux Mint, and GRUB knew all the details about Linux Mint, but listed Kubuntu first as Ubuntu. Is this normal? Yes, I know there is a GRUB editor, but it is mostly curiousity, as I have not installed Ubuntu since Unity.
[19:05] <lordievader> mparillo: Yes, supposedly it is rather cumbersome to get that to say Kubuntu.
[19:05] <keithzg> mparillo: Kubuntu being listed as Ubuntu is normal. In many sense they *are* the same distro, after all (just a different primary desktop metapackage, but in theory you could have both ubuntu-desktop and kubuntu-desktop installed)
[19:05] <lordievader> mparillo: Ask sitter.
[19:05] <keithzg> I thought we did get it saying Kubuntu at one point, though?
[19:06] <lordievader> keithzg: Yes, but it was too much effort to continue that trend.
[19:06] <keithzg> lordievader: Ahhh, fair enough
[19:06] <keithzg> There *are* a lot of interlocking parts to deal with.
[19:07]  * keithzg is content to just see "Ubuntu" and mentally read "*ubuntu" ;)
[19:09] <Aren> partman crashed on kubuntu ubuntu & vivid installation on HP sleekbook4 running windows 8, stock machine. Partman crashed with exit coded 141.  Has been reported under multiple bug reports but no definitive resolution has happened
[19:10] <Aren> would like to get my install straight & work with someone on a better installation script to improve options clarity documetation, any interest? A goog contct?
[19:12] <mparillo> TY keithzg and lordievader. I commented on that in my Beta 1 RC 1 test report, but I did not want to open a bug until I knew more about it.
[19:22] <Aren> I can't imagine ubuntu kubuntu or vivid getting to much of a following with all distros replicating the same installation bug being so mishandled & unaddressed everywhere, shame because other than a successful boot taking forever it's pretty solid
[19:23] <keithzg> Aren: Vivid ain't exactly been released yet.
[19:23] <Aren> agreed, but the stable version should be
[19:24] <Aren> tried all the distros to see if this problem existed in all & it does
[19:25] <keithzg> Aren: Well, I haven't had issues with installing 14.10 on systems personally, so it's not *universal* at least. Do you have a bug report in particular that details the issues as you've experienced them?
[19:25] <BluesKaj> Aren, I haven't encountered that bug during 15.04 installation , either via iso or network upgrade
[19:26] <Aren> there have been mulitple bug reports filed with all distros & i believe they have been marked as solved (or not) in error.  Do you want me to go find all the bug reports related to the part man exit 141 error?
[19:27] <keithzg> Aren: If you want us to help at all, pointing to at least *one* would be useful.
[19:27] <Aren> I have eproduced it consistently on a stock hp envy sleekbook 4 laptop running standard windows 8 with no virus protectio installed
[19:28] <Aren> OK, I can do that.  I 'm here to help too
[19:28] <lordievader> Aren: Wait, you keep explicitly saying Windows 8, do you use Wubi?
[19:28] <Aren> was trying to understand what was needed.
[19:30] <Aren> wubi is in the install script for install I guess, but as far as I can tel it should not be called. I don't even care too much about preserving the current windows install
[19:30] <keithzg> Aren: Naw, Wubi is an install method where you run the installer from within Windows, rather than rebooting into the installer directly.
[19:31] <Aren> It seems to be a problem with ownership and permissions values because it can't create write to directories and files during install so exits
[19:31] <Aren> no, running from iso usb during restart or reboot
[19:32] <keithzg> Okay, are you using UEFI or legacy?
[19:32] <Aren> legacy
[19:32] <Aren> booting up, going to boot selection picking usb drive
[19:32] <mparillo> Aren: Anytime I see Win8, I think https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI
[19:32] <mparillo> Whoops: keithzg beat me.
[19:34] <keithzg> It's possible the installer is having issues then if the drive is using GPT, since if you boot the installer in legacy rather than UEFI it can't actually understand that last time I checked (I could be remembering wrong though).
[19:38] <keithzg> Aren: So I'd definitely try booting from the install disc as UEFI, see if that allows it to actually manipulate the partitions. I'm not 100% sure that's the issue, but I wouldn't be surprised.
[19:41] <Aren> thanks i'll check that out now,
[20:28] <sysop> hi
[21:54] <whac-a-retro> ikonia: Is it possible for us to discuss things?
[22:11] <Scunizi> can I batch rename in dolphin and add a sequencing number to the beginning of an existing filename.  File names are all over the board and I don't want to change them.. just prepend a number
[22:19] <mparillo> Scunizi: Sounds like a fun perl / shell scripting exercise.
[22:21] <Scunizi> mparillo: my google-fu must be working today.. krename seems to be pretty powerful.
[22:22] <Scunizi> even offers an "undo" while experimenting.
[22:24] <mparillo> Wow. I have shot myself with perl before. Undo would have been nice.
[23:01] <magman> hello all
[23:02] <bprompt> allo
[23:02] <keithzg> Yeah, I remember using krename back in the day, quite a useful little utility (although I normally do indeed just do these things with one-liners in bash or such).
[23:02] <magman> looking for help on NVIDIA drivers for kubuntu
[23:03] <keithzg> magman: what's your current situation, software and hardware wise?
