[09:10] <Linux_ussr> Hello @ all. I got  new dell inspiron 7537 and got problems with my battery status. There is no widget displaying battery power and remaining time. how to fix it?
[09:12] <soee> hi Linux_ussr
[09:12] <soee> you dont have it in systray ?
[09:12] <Linux_ussr> soee: no!
[09:13] <soee> and if you open systray settings, check there if its marked to be shown
[09:13] <Linux_ussr> i look up the stat in terminal with acpi
[09:14] <Linux_ussr> there is no battery entry
[09:14] <Linux_ussr> all works fine. also switchable graphics but no battery icon
[09:15] <soee> strange, on my dell inspiron all works fine
[09:15] <Linux_ussr> soee: ship it to me. :-D
[09:15] <Linux_ussr> you get mine
[09:16] <soee> nah, i like this one a lot :)
[09:16] <yofel> Linux_ussr: if 'upower --dump' will not show battery information your problem is not kde
[09:16] <Linux_ussr> that good, maby i will also like it ;-D
[09:17] <Linux_ussr> yofel: upower --dump shows all information. :-D
[09:18] <Linux_ussr> how is the applet called?
[09:18] <yofel> that's weird ^^
[09:18] <Linux_ussr> i got no acpi installed.
[09:18] <yofel> the battery applet rlies on upower, so acpi *should* not be a problem..
[09:18] <Linux_ussr> and have installed it manually. is
[09:19] <Linux_ussr> ah ok
[09:19] <Linux_ussr> thats strange. got never this problem
[09:19] <yofel> the applet itself is called Battery Monitor, and should show up in the Extra Items of the systray config
[09:20] <Linux_ussr> what entries you got in ~/.kde/share/config/plasma-desktop-appletsrc
[09:21] <Linux_ussr> http://pastebin.com/Y4u4Nisw
[09:22] <Linux_ussr> thats mine

=== mike is now known as Guest75041
[16:40] <MichaelP> Anyone know if there a ppa yet for kde 4.14 beta ?
[16:42] <lordievader> MichaelP: I suppose the Kubu devs are too busy with packaging Plasma5 to have time to package 4.14 beta.
[16:43] <shadeslayer> yeah
[16:43] <shadeslayer> I'll have a look on Monday I suppose
[16:44] <MichaelP> lordievader: i just thought maybe since plasma 5 is still using part of 4:13... that 4.14 might be work better with it
[16:44] <shadeslayer> no it's not
[16:44] <shadeslayer> applications are still using Qt4 , but workspaces is all Qt5
[16:45] <MichaelP> I know like on suse and others when you upgrade to plasma 5.. your still have parts of kde 4.13 base and stuff
[16:46] <MichaelP> if using project-neon who supports that ?
=== mike_ is now known as Guest9710
[16:47] <lordievader> The Kubuntu Dev team, for as far as I know.
[16:47] <MichaelP> so project-neon is part of kubuntu
[16:47] <shadeslayer> yes
[16:48] <shadeslayer> MichaelP: yes, the applications are still Qt4
[16:48] <MichaelP> so im safe then in here using the project-neon iso
[16:48] <shadeslayer> yes
[16:50] <MichaelP> everytime i installed straight to kubuntu.. screen started going hay wire... so i tried that iso.. and runing good.. plasma 5 still has a lot of speed work... kde 4.13 things opened alot faster
[16:50] <lordievader> MichaelP: FYI, shadeslayer is part of the Kubuntu Dev team ;)
[16:50] <shadeslayer> good to hear the ISO is working awesome for you
[16:52] <MichaelP> What causes things to go heywire with plasma 5... I had samething with suse 13.1
[16:52] <lordievader> MichaelP: Driver issue?
[16:52] <MichaelP> only video driver i using is xf86-video-ati
[16:53] <lordievader> Doesn't take away that it could be a driver issue.
[16:53] <shadeslayer> MichaelP: haywire?
[16:54] <MichaelP> it would be after awhile you open firefox or dolphin or anything.. and it flickers.. looks like it's in 5 peices
[16:54] <MichaelP> or screen would start going black.. but what windows was open would stay
[16:56] <MichaelP> so what ppa.. a 3rd part group getting packages ready or what
=== winston is now known as Guest69642
[16:57] <shadeslayer> sounds like a driver issue
[16:57] <shadeslayer> but please report bugs upstream
[17:01] <MichaelP> opening synptic package manager... KDEInit could not launch '' Could not open library '/opt/project-neon5/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libkdeinit5 Cannot load library /opt/project-neon5/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libkdeinit5 (/opt/project-neon5/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libkdeinit5_.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)

[18:50] <em> which is faster to get Kubuntu 14.04, a direct download or a torent?
[18:51] <ikonia> depends on the connection
[18:51] <ikonia> you should get a good response from torrents as it's well seeded

[19:00] <kritik> hi, in kubuntu Ihave chosen l2tp vpn connection, set parameter. But when I click to connect nothing happens
[19:00] <kritik> should I install any package?
=== richard is now known as Guest646
[19:11] <kritik> in kubuntu Ihave chosen l2tp vpn connection, set parameter. But when I click to connect nothing happens. Should I install any package?
[19:14] <genii> kritik: Perhaps check if the package kvpnc is installed
[19:15] <kritik> genii: I tried but it asked for some sertificates which shouldn't be asked
[19:15] <genii> That sounds... odd
[19:20] <kritik> geniiL it should ask username/password/host asit is in plasmoid but kvpnc asks so many params...
[20:12] <MintyNinja41> Hello- I was wondering if anyone knew if KDE Plasma 5 would be available in Kubuntu 14.04 straightaway upon release, or if I'd have to wait for it to be ported or something.  I do apologise- I'm not familiar with how KDE and Ubuntu handle releases.
[20:13] <lordievader> MintyNinja41: I think it will be avialable soon after release. Seeing that Project Neon5 is backed by the Kubuntu dev team. However, you should ask in #kubuntu-dev.
[20:15] <MintyNinja41> lordievader: #kubuntu-dev on this server?
[20:15] <MintyNinja41> right cool nick by the way :3
=== Vito_ is now known as Vito
[20:16] <lordievader> MintyNinja41: Err sorry, its #kubuntu-devel, and yes it is on Freenode.
[20:16] <lordievader> MintyNinja41: Thanks :)
[20:17] <MintyNinja41> Right, thanks!
[20:17] <MintyNinja41> And no problem haha
[20:17] <MintyNinja41> my nick was going to me MintyHippo41, but I thought better of it. :p
[20:20] <lordievader> MintyNinja41: ;)

[22:51] <ey3> I've just installed a bunch of things from some unstable Ubuntu repository which completely broke KDE leaving me just with command line... Any help on how could I roll these changes back to stable versions?
[22:52] <ikonia> ey3: I told you what to do
[22:52] <ikonia> ey3: you need to learn how to make install media and re-install, or pay someone as you did before to come and do a reinstall for you
[22:53] <ey3> ikonia: Then I'd be grateful if you could provide some assistance in that or at least link me to tutorials/people who would bother to explain it to me
[22:54] <ikonia> !install | ey3
[22:54] <ubottu> ey3: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall - Don't want to use a CD? See http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate
[22:57] <ey3> ikonia: Well, thanks... though I guess that clean install would mean losing all the data I've had there...
[22:57] <ikonia> ey3: you can back it up first
