[00:06] <Quantos> I'm having a problem I think.  My distro keeps throwing this error at me http://imgur.com/1JUC9xv
[00:07] <Quantos> I don't know how to fix it.  And the package that I think it's referring to seems to work fine
[00:53] <ahoneybun> Quantos: that would be the ubuntu-restricted-extra package
[00:53] <ahoneybun> something lik that
[01:24] <Quantos> Thanks ahoneybun That seems to have done the trick
[01:30] <ahoneybun> np Quantos
[01:30] <Quantos> I thought it was fixed
[01:31] <Quantos> I just got the error again, and I uninstalled and reinstalled the restricted package
[03:48] <xor-freenet> the yesterday security updates of mysql broke akonadi/kontact/kmail completely on kubuntu 14.04... any idea in which channel a maintainer of one of those would hang out so i can notify them?
[03:49]  * xor-freenet cannot mail them for obvious reasons...
[03:55] <valorie> xor-freenet: beyond the *buntu chans that simon gave you in -devel, there is #kontact for all of KDE PIM
[03:55] <valorie> I'll bet they will want to know
[03:56] <xor-freenet> valorie: thank you! :)   yea i'm trying to notify different channels because mail being broken is *bad* for me, cannot work without it.
[03:56] <valorie> it is really bad, and I thank you
[03:56] <xor-freenet> :)
[03:57] <valorie> you can always file a bug on bugs.kde.org as well
[03:57] <xor-freenet> i have an account there, but wouldn't they tell me it is the business of the ubuntu people? :|
[03:58] <valorie> sure, and mysql is going to get security updates *everywhere*
[03:58] <valorie> unless Ubuntu devels screwed up the patch
[04:00] <xor-freenet> \o/   mmh. well the bugtracker entry at the ubuntu bugtracker contains even a patch to suggest a fix; only problem is that the title suggests it's an issue of the new october version of ubuntu; while it also affects long term releases such as the 2014 version.... so i'd be happy if i could figure out who the specific person doing mysql releases is and make them aware of it
[04:01] <xor-freenet> albeit the patch is against akonadi; so i suppose contacting the akonadi maintainer would also be appropriate.   see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/akonadi/+bug/1633855
[04:01] <valorie> I assume that the akonadi team hangs out with the KDE-PIM team
[04:01] <valorie> and that they bat BRs back and forth as necessary
[04:02] <valorie> you can cite the LP BR# on bugs.kde.org too
[04:03] <valorie> sounds like you have really done your homework

[06:28] <Mihaly> help
[06:28] <Mihaly> is there a specific channel for Plasma related issues? actually Im not sure which aspect of this system is causing problems but I am getting all sorts of instabilities, random crashes and stuff
[06:32] <hateball> Mihaly: #plasma
[06:32] <hateball> Mihaly: that said, what version of kubuntu are you using?
[06:33] <Mihaly> I started with 14.10, it was fine - but after following the advice of the updater, i am currently in 15.04 hell.
[06:34] <Mihaly> and it won't let me upgrade to 16.04 either.
[06:35] <hateball> !eolupgrade | Mihaly
[06:35] <Mihaly> yes, yes, please am not in need of rtfm kind of help here.
[06:38] <hateball> You're using an unsupported release, and I'm giving you information to upgrade to a supported one
[06:38] <hateball> With that attitude, suit yourself
[07:15] <Adham> Hello everyone, do anyone know how to set audio configurations, rather than using category from "Audio and Video"?
[07:16] <Adham> Furthermore, I'm not sure where I can set the default mic for skype calls...
[07:19] <hateball> Adham: Sounds like you'd do that in Skype
[07:20] <hateball> Not familiar with that application
[07:20] <hateball> Adham: What configurations are you looking to edit?
[07:20] <Adham> In skype, there is no device selection, seems like using kubuntu's default
[07:22] <Adham> change device that is used for Audio for the entire operating system, rather than setting for each category
[07:23] <hateball> Adham: oh, well you can set the default mic, sure
[07:24] <hateball> Adham: rightclick the volume applet in your tray and go into settings, that should let you pick which in-device to use

[08:22] <wacky_coder> hello
[11:30] <locustmage> good morning
[11:32] <barq> My MTP connection is unreliable with kubuntu 16.04.1. Is there any known fix?
[11:32] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[11:32] <barq> When I am in file explorer I often get faults
[11:33] <locustmage> im seeing this article, have you attempted this?
[11:33] <locustmage> http://www.linux-magazine.com/Online/Blogs/Productivity-Sauce/Enable-Support-for-Android-MTP-in-KDE
[11:34] <locustmage> or maybe
[11:34] <locustmage> https://www.kubuntuforums.net/showthread.php?59412-MTP-Support
[11:34] <locustmage> actually the second link, the forum refers to the same KIO MTP
[11:36] <locustmage> someone else in the forum used gmtp
[11:36] <barq> I saw the first link
[11:36] <barq> The problem is that the mtp interferes with my adb
[11:36] <barq> So I want to disable mtp, not install a new version
[11:42] <locustmage> i found this link, seems like it might apply to you
[11:42] <locustmage> http://askubuntu.com/questions/539205/android-device-detected-by-mtp-detect-but-not-by-adb
[11:43] <locustmage> is that more along the lines your looking for?
[11:44] <locustmage> this answer removes mtp support completely
[11:44] <locustmage> http://stackoverflow.com/questions/35506038/nexus-device-not-visible-to-adb-on-ubuntu-when-mtp-is-enabled
[11:44] <barq> I downloaded adb via android platform-tools
[11:45] <barq> Where is this settings->storage?
[11:45] <barq> ah on the device, so yuo can't do tht in linux?
[11:45] <locustmage> im thinking that might only be for unity not kde
[11:46] <locustmage> i was looking at the removal of the mtp packages below that in the same answer
[11:50] <barq> When I do sudo adb I get command not found
[11:50] <barq> even when I do sudo ./adb
[11:51] <barq> When I just run adb it works
[11:54] <locustmage> this might be useful
[11:54] <locustmage> http://askubuntu.com/questions/213874/how-to-configure-adb-access-for-android-devices
[11:56] <locustmage> seems you may need a udev rule in /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android-rules
[11:56] <locustmage> or something similar
[12:01] <barq> adb usually works, but often hangs
[12:02] <barq> That's what I'm trying to fix in the end.
[15:37] <user|55117> Where can I see kubuntu requirements?
[15:40] <sithlord48> user|55117: baicly a machine openGl 2.0 or better for your gfx and you need at least 512MB of ram
[15:40] <sithlord48> user|55117:  i would say recommened is some kind of cpu w/ at least two cores, 2GB of ram and a video card made within the last 10 years...
[15:41] <sithlord48> user|55117:  you want at least 8GB of storage for root but that will depend on what you plan to install . I usually make a 40GB root

[18:21] <Fenster> hey guys... I need some advice.. my father in laws laptop running vista died and I want to install a linux distro on there, mostly for cost and for spam/virus control.... the issue is the files are intact, so I want to keep them as best I can......
[18:21] <Fenster> does it make sense to partition and install linux on a new partition and just keep those windows files in place
[18:24] <genii> Fenster: That's the usual way, yes. And then at boot time you can select either from GRUB menu
[18:25] <Fenster> what are some concerns with doing it that way though.... will linux programs automatically default to saving locally on the linux partition?
[18:25] <sithlord48> Fenster:  for the price it might be better to get a new hd for the laptop
[18:25] <Fenster> the hdd is fine... its the OS thats screwed
[18:25] <sithlord48> Fenster:  linux will use what disc you tell it to use
[18:25] <sithlord48> if you make a partiton / it iwll use that .. you can only mount the windows partitions not install to them .
[18:26] <Fenster> ah ok... does it only mount them as read only?
[18:26] <Fenster> he uses this laptop for email and google picasa
[18:26] <genii> No, read-write
[18:26] <Fenster> ok
[18:26] <marco-parillo> I assume the Vista data is NTFS?
[18:26] <Fenster> I know picasa wont work
[18:26] <sithlord48> by defalut it won't mount them at all iirc you need to install ntfs-3g
[18:26] <Fenster> yes pretty sure
[18:26] <Fenster> hrmmm
[18:27] <sithlord48> Fenster:  you ned to run disc check etc on windows side and maybe even resize there.
[18:27] <Fenster> the other option is to backup, fresh install, and then create a folder in linux and dump the back up in there
[18:27] <sithlord48> ntfs can be odd when not cleanly unmounted from windows etc
[18:27] <sithlord48> will he use windows after?
[18:28] <sithlord48> if not what i usually do is boot to usb and copy all the data they need off the HD to another USB and restore it to linux afterwards
[18:29] <Fenster> ya I loaded a ubuntu live disc last night and am dumping to an external HDD
[18:29] <user|33130> Hi! Is the latest stable version compatibile with Skylake CPU-s with integrated graphic (HD 530)? Thanks
[18:29] <Fenster> I think I got it, but there were a lot of copy errors... not sure why. .... so I am worried to completely wipe
[18:30] <Fenster> no, windows doesnt work at all, he will never use windows again
[18:30] <sithlord48> Fenster:  yeah i see that alot too
[18:30] <Fenster> unless he hates this
[18:30] <Fenster> but if he hates kubuntu, he is going to be buying his next OS
[18:31] <sithlord48> Fenster:  you will have to show him some things maybe but most people take ot kubuntu alright from windows
[18:31] <Fenster> as I no longer have any vists discs
[18:31] <sithlord48> who does now a days lol;
[18:31] <Fenster> hell I have to show him stuff in vista so I am not terribly worried ;-
[18:31] <Fenster> p
[18:32] <sithlord48> lamo . .they all resist then they start to like it.. i was asked by my dad why i didn't change his machine sooner
[18:34] <Fenster> one option I could possibly do is add a linux partition, use up all free space... dump my backup into that linux partition and let it ride.... if it appears that everything is there, then delete that windows partition and resize to recoup the space
[18:36] <sithlord48> you should get the same copy issues reguardless of the target diretcory
[18:37] <sithlord48> what format is your disk your copying to in ?
[18:38] <sithlord48> not that is should matter our formats usually support more characters and file sizes then NTFS so that is unlikey to be your problem but it copying to fat32 that could be why copy errors
[18:44] <Fenster> sorry
[18:44] <Fenster> fat32 I believe
[18:44] <Fenster> maybe ext4
[18:45] <Fenster> pretty sure ft32
[18:45] <Fenster> I wa just saying I would leave that partition dormant in case I ever needed it
[18:47] <DonCullen> Kubuntu is flickering alot
[18:47] <DonCullen> Wasn't doing that until today
[18:47] <DonCullen> Recommended solution?
[18:47] <sithlord48> fat32 might be why you have copy problems. files over 4GB are to big on fat32 Fenster
[18:47] <Fenster> I dont think there are any large files... unless these are like some strange large log files or something
[18:48] <sithlord48> and otehr things i just don't remember like total characters in path
[18:48] <Fenster> ah... thats progbably it
[18:48] <Fenster> EXt4 doesnt have that limitation?
[18:48] <Fenster> the prob is I want to keep fat32 in case he does go back to windows, its an easy dump
[18:57] <sithlord48> Fenster:  then use ntfs for your backup
[18:58] <sithlord48> Fenster:  every filesystem has various limits on things like characters you cna use in the name. number of characters allowed in the files full path . file size , number of files , etc etc
[19:05] <DonCullen> Fixed the flickering by running killall plasmashell; kwin --replace & kstart plasmashell & exit in KRunner
[19:05] <DonCullen> Thank goodness for Google.
[19:44] <fqtw> can i use X11 forwarding from my server to home when the server isnt running any graphical stuff?
[19:44] <fqtw> is X always running?
[19:51] <Dragnslcr> You should be able to
[20:30] <tikani> How to make KWallet to see GPG key on Kubuntu 16.04.1?
[21:34] <Fenster> well, I am not convinced the backup worked
[21:34] <Fenster> accessing the drive on windows it keeps hanging
[21:34] <Fenster> I think I am having issues here... my question is, is there a way to setup a file copy that will rename files that are too long for the drive?
[22:31] <chcknrub> when will qt 5.8 released to kubuntu 16.04? It is still 5.5.1
