[03:58] <sintre> still trying to figure out the font to match it in quessell
[03:58] <sintre> as i like that so far over konversation
[03:59] <DarinMiller> I need to visit the kubuntu pages more often.  I did not know http://kubuntu.org/support/ had a web channel on it.
[03:59] <sintre> lol
[03:59] <sintre> well we all learn every day here it seems

[06:24] <parth_> is there any way to install vsphere client in linux ?
[06:33] <nayan> hi
[06:33] <parth_> hi
[06:34] <ben__> Hello
[06:34] <sintre> hi
[06:34] <sintre> most action channlen has seen last ew hours  :)
[06:35] <muto> KDE 5.9 looks interesting
[06:38] <muto> How've you all been lately?
[06:39] <hateball> oh they left
[06:39] <muto> hateball: Yeah
[06:40] <hateball> re: vsphere client
[06:40] <hateball> which is not possible to run in linux, but you should be using the up to date flex or html5 client anyhow
[06:41] <muto> My current machine can hardly run a text editor, I'm not gonna think about VMware, lol
[07:43] <denza242> oh no
[07:43] <denza242> I accidentally nuked the menubar from ktorrent
[07:43] <denza242> how do i re-enable it
[07:53] <muto> denza242:  I never use kTorrent D: and I'm probably the only non-afk user here, whenever I remove the menubar, I rebooted the computer and it worked, I'm not familiar with any other workaround.
[08:54] <lordievader> Good morning.
[09:57] <parth_> i am unable to install vmrc, can anyone help ?
[09:58] <parth_> ?
[10:13] <lordievader> !info vmrc
[10:14] <lordievader> parth_: What is vmrc?
[10:16] <parth_> vmware remote console
[10:21] <lordievader> Ah, vmware. Don't think vmware stuff is quickly going in the repos. Do you have a .deb?
[10:26] <parth_> no its .bundle
[10:29] <lordievader> I read on the web that .bundle is mostly used for Mac OSX, are you sure you have the right version?
[10:53] <BluesKaj> Hey all
[14:35] <Duuvah89> BluesKaj, are you ther?
[14:36] <BluesKaj> Duuvah89, yes
[14:36] <Duuvah89> BluesKaj, Goodmorning! I never got my vpn connected so I went back to kubuntu 16.04.
[14:36] <Duuvah89> BluesKaj, the vpn installed without a problem on 16.04
[14:39] <BluesKaj> Duuvah89, has to be a bug then, however I don't use network-manager or it's vpn version, so i think the problem lies with either of those apps on 16.10
[14:43] <BluesKaj> Duuvah89, does 16.04 meet your needs other than your vpn requirements?
[14:45] <Duuvah89> BluesKaj, I agree, and yes Kubu 16.04 is perfect, I use it for work and going to use it for my lpic 1, yes I am a total novice lol
[14:45] <shiverz> hello guys! can someone give me a hand? preferably someone who runs kubuntu with 3 monitors and 2 nvidia graphics cards.. I am having some issues finalizing my settings.
[14:47] <BluesKaj> Duuvah89, well 16.04 is LTS so it's supported longer than regular kubuntu OSs ,and a good choice for a work computer.
[14:47] <BluesKaj> !LTS
[14:48] <Duuvah89> BluesKaj, Regular Kubuntu OS? whats the difference?
[14:49] <BluesKaj> Duuvah89, they upgrade to new version every 6 months
[14:49] <BluesKaj> I'm testing 17.04 as we speak
[14:52] <BluesKaj> Duuvah89, LTS versions are meant for use on work pcs due to their stability and length of support
[14:52] <Duuvah89> BluesKaj, what is the benefit of upgrading every six months?
[14:53] <Duuvah89> am I missing out on anything?
[14:53] <BluesKaj> Duuvah89,  newer packages , newer themes etc
[14:55] <BluesKaj> Duuvah89, I still use 14.04.4 on one of my pcs as a fallback OS in case something goes wrong with 16.10 or 17.04
[14:56] <BluesKaj> I use it on my media center pc  Duuvah89, because it just works
[14:56] <Duuvah89> BluesKaj, so would I use 16.10 or 17, for a gaming pc?
[14:57] <BluesKaj> Duuvah89, I can't answer that because I'm not a gamer
[14:59] <shiverz> well, there is SteamOS
[14:59] <Duuvah89> BluesKaj, WELL WHAT IN THE WORLD DO IF Y NOT GAME!!!!!!!! THE HORROR!!!!!!
[14:59] <BluesKaj> my media pc contains all my music, picture and movie files and ity's connected to my video/tv and sound systems
[14:59] <Duuvah89> jk
[14:59] <Duuvah89> lol
[14:59] <Duuvah89> gotcha
[15:00] <Duuvah89> brb
[15:00] <BluesKaj> I spend a lot of my time here on irc for starters
[15:01] <shiverz> BluesKaj maybe you could give me a hand? I am still quite new to linux
[15:01] <shiverz> would be very kind of you
[15:02] <BluesKaj> depends on your issue shiverz , tell us what it is
[15:05] <shiverz> I have 3 monitors connected to 2 identical nvidia graphics cards without SLI bridge. I got my setup to work with tweaking the xorg.conf, but now I have this issue: when I maximize a window, it maximizes over all 3 monitors. I would like the window to maximize only to the current monitor. I tried fiddling with KWin but without avail. I could upload
[15:05] <shiverz> my xorg.conf to pastebin or similar if that helps.
[15:07] <BluesKaj> shiverz, not really, sorry but i have expertise whatsoever with multiple monitors. I use a large screen plasma tv as a monitor so i don't need anything else.
[15:07] <BluesKaj> no expertise
[15:08] <shiverz> okay, thank you anyway! :)
[15:10] <Duuvah89> back
[15:11] <BluesKaj> Duuvah89, I repeat, I spend a lot of my time here on irc for starters
[15:11] <BluesKaj> I'm old and games never interested me much
[15:16] <Duuvah89> BluesKaj, Thats why you are THE Kubu Guru lol
[15:18] <BluesKaj> not really , I'm a techie who got interested in pcs after retirement, 2 yrs after my first home pc i discovered Linux
[15:19] <Duuvah89> what was your first home pc?
[15:20] <BluesKaj> a 1998 vintage HP celeron with 64mb RAN , 6Gb hdd and 366mhz cpu on dialup for internet
[15:20] <BluesKaj> RAM even
[15:23] <BluesKaj> DSL was available a couple yrs later which I connected as soon as possible
[15:23] <Duuvah89> brb
[15:23] <BluesKaj> Duuvah89, how about you ?
[15:31] <Duuvah89> BluesKaj, My first pc was a Dell e510, pent4, 8gb of ram, I had that pc all the way up until a couple of years ago, I upgraded the hd to a used wd raptor drive, that computer was my lover
[15:31] <Duuvah89> jk
[15:31] <Duuvah89> HAHA
[15:31] <Duuvah89> I did not have digital relations with that computer
[15:32] <BluesKaj> we have digital relations with a pc with every keystroke and mouse action :-)
[15:36] <Duuvah89> BluesKaj, LOL, I have been found out, I can never look at my wife in the face again lol
[15:36] <Duuvah89> brb again
[15:39] <noaXess> hey all..
[15:39] <noaXess> are there some vpn/openvpn/routing freaks here? ;)
[15:42] <Duuvah89> I use a vpn, but I am a novice vpn user
[15:42] <BluesKaj> noaXess, not a vpn freak, but what's your issue?
[15:43] <BluesKaj> noaXess, also which vpn service
[15:48] <fmeerkoetter> the sound on my kubuntu16.04 box dies on a regular basis (a few hours max).
[15:49] <fmeerkoetter> the journal contains a lot of these line if it happens Jan 19 16:37:10 naos pulseaudio[14999]: [pulseaudio] shm.c: shm_open() failed: No such file or directory
[15:49] <fmeerkoetter> logout + login "fixes" it
[15:49] <fmeerkoetter> any idea how to get to the bottom of it?
[15:51] <BluesKaj> fmeerkoetter, is this a laptop?
[15:52] <fmeerkoetter> BluesKaj: yes, a thinkpad t440p
[15:52] <fmeerkoetter> 3 devices
[15:52] <fmeerkoetter> internal sound, hdmi sound, usb sound
[15:52] <BluesKaj> check you power settings
[15:53] <fmeerkoetter> BluesKaj: happens while connected to mains
[15:53] <fmeerkoetter> not while on battery
[15:53] <fmeerkoetter> what specific should i check?
[15:54] <Mrokii> Hello. How can I see all available network-connections in Kubuntu 16.10? I can see the network-icon in the standard-bar that is visible on KDE, but it only shows my (already connected) Ethernet-connection. But I also have a wlan-Stick attached (which worked before). But at the moment I can't see it when clicking on the Network-icon.
[15:54] <BluesKaj> no matter, your setting timers for sleep etc, fmeerkoetter
[15:55] <fmeerkoetter> BluesKaj: these are very short, 2, 5 and 10 minutes
[15:55] <fmeerkoetter> BluesKaj: audio survives longer
[15:55] <fmeerkoetter> sometimes an hour
[15:56] <fmeerkoetter> its also not tied to inactivity
[15:56] <fmeerkoetter> it just happend to me while working on a document
[15:56] <fmeerkoetter> (at least thats my impression)
[15:56] <BluesKaj> fmeerkoetter,  which audio chip ?
[15:56] <Mrokii> Forget my question. Seems I got it working now.
[15:57] <fmeerkoetter> Jan 18 16:39:00 naos kernel: snd_hda_codec_realtek hdaudioC1D0: autoconfig for ALC3232: line_outs=1 (0x14/0x0/0x0/0x0/0x0) type:speaker
[15:58] <BluesKaj> Mrokii, sometimes the network daemon takes a while to recognize all network interfaces
[15:58] <fmeerkoetter> thats the internal one
[15:58] <Mrokii> BluesKaj: Maybe that is what happened. Not sure.
[15:58] <Mrokii> I had just rebooted my system.
[15:58] <BluesKaj> Mrokii, ok
[16:02] <BluesKaj> fmeerkoetter, personally i purge pulseaudio and puleaudio utils on my intel equipped audio pcs ...snd-hda-intel works directly with alsa alsa-utils  without the need for pulse in the mix so to speak...I'm not advising you to do so, but I have fewer audio problems without pulseaudio
[16:03] <BluesKaj> some other audio chip drivers are written to depnend on pulseaudio , but not the intel hda
[16:03] <BluesKaj> depend
[16:05] <BluesKaj> fm and trying to track down a failing audio server problem like you have with pulse is a difficult one
[16:05] <BluesKaj> fmeerkoetter,^
[16:10] <Mrokii> Can somebody point me to up-to-date info about changing the names of network interfaces? I found something on the net about editing "/etc/iftab", but I'm not sure if that's the best way to do it.
[16:21] <BluesKaj> Mrokii,  /etc/iftab doesn't exist on current supported versions of kubuntu afaik
[16:22] <BluesKaj> bbiab,
[16:43] <BluesKaj> Mrokii, systemd has it's own naming scheme, http://www.ubuntugeek.com/network-interfaces-name-change-in-ubuntu-15-10-wily-werewolf.html
[16:45] <Mrokii> BluesKaj: Thanks, that's useful information. I'll see if I can change the names to my needs, following the instruction.
[16:46] <BluesKaj> Mrokii, why do you need to change the interface names, you'll just create problems for yourself
[16:53] <himcesjf> I am noticing a weird behaviour on my Kubuntu system running on a 3.0 USB stick connected to USB 3.0 port that it lags a lot when connected to AC source and the moment it is unplugged from source, it works fine. Any suggestions on how to trace the cause?
[16:53] <Mrokii> BluesKaj: I don't really like the name for the wlan interface. It's "wlx24050f954515", which is stupidly long for no good reason.
[16:54] <himcesjf> Sysinfo for 'TuxStick': Running inside KDE Plasma 5 on Ubuntu 16.10 (Yakkety Yak) powered by Linux 4.8.0-34-generic, CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-5200U CPU @ 2.20GHz at 2487-2697/2700 MHz, RAM: 6642/7902 MB, Storage: 40/675 GB, 267 procs, 3.98h up
[16:57] <Mrokii> BluesKaj: And what reasons exactly would I create by renaming the interface?
[16:57] <Mrokii> BluesKaj: I'm no expert, so I'm curious.
[16:58] <BluesKaj> Mrokii, try this command to see the renamed interfaces, ip a | grep inet
[16:59] <BluesKaj> renamed by systemd that is
[17:01] <Mrokii> BluesKaj: Yeah, that's a list with my lan- and wlan-interfaces (among others).
[18:00] <d3vcho> Is Kubuntu better than Ubuntu?
[18:01] <BluesKaj> d3vcho, depends on your taste in desktop environments
[18:01] <BluesKaj> !kde
[18:28] <d3vcho> BluesKaj: Seems that kubuntu-desktop has finished unpacking
[18:28] <d3vcho> What do I do know?
[22:32] <Muto> Hello
