| [07:09] <Addle> s-2014: Are you starting it in the background with & ? Maybe it's dying trying to read input from you. | |
| [07:09] <s-2014> ah, sorry, i think i've found the problem. it must be cpulimit | |

| [08:35] <Promethes> hi, why mozilla firefox (or kde itself) does not remembers window size and maximization state after i close and reopen? | |
| [08:40] <nlsthzn> I have seen this sometimes after the first time I use an application. After a restart it normally works and keeps the size... not sure why | |
| [08:41] <valorie> in general, you have to quit (control-q) to have state saved | |
| [08:42] <valorie> although you can also choose (in systemsettings) whether or not you want sessions save | |
| [08:46] <Promethes> mine not, ctrl+q does not saves window sizes | |
| [08:51] <hateball> Promethes: you could also force it to start with a certain size, if you always want it maximized for instance | |
| [08:51] <hateball> (I do this for some troublesome apps) | |
| [08:53] <Promethes> i found that this is a bug that was reported in 2000 (14 years ago) and kde devs are not willing to fix it because they don't want to | |
| [08:53] <Promethes> this is sad | |
| [08:54] <valorie> ? | |
| [08:54] <valorie> that doesn't sound right | |
| [08:55] <valorie> bug #? | |
| [09:00] <Promethes> https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15329 | |
| [09:00] <ubottu> KDE bug 15329 in general "Placement policy 'Remember'" [Wishlist,Resolved: wontfix] | |
| [09:03] <apachelogger> Promethes: last comment gives an accurate technical reason for why this cannot be solved at this time. | |
| [09:05] <valorie> Promethes: if Martin says it can't be done now, i would believe him | |
| [09:06] <valorie> if he's able to do it once Wayland is fully implemented, that's another story | |
| [09:07] <valorie> and if apachelogger says that it is technically accurate, it is technically accurate | |
| [09:21] <lordievader> Good morning. | |
| [09:21] <Walex> there is a session manager protocol too, and if clients don't implement it... | |

| [15:10] <ubottu> rcw2, please see my private message | |
| [15:14] <koontz> Hey guys. Got a fresh install of 13.10 on a new laptop I picked up. Never had an issue like this before so figured I would ask here cause I'm not finding any solutions anywhere else. | |
| [15:16] <koontz> Basically, I am running chrome and things like flash, etc work. But what doesn't is java. I tried icedtead, openjdk6 and 7, and also oracle java. I have copied the .so files for the plugins to the directory all the documentation I find says to copy it to | |
| [15:16] <koontz> So, any ideas on troubleshooting etc? | |
| [15:17] <genii> rcw2: I actually usually just use VLC and stream the desktop to a file. | |
| === tuedel__ is now known as tuedel_ | |
| [15:18] <rcw2> genii, interesting | |
| [15:19] <BluesKaj> koontz, is kubuntu-restricted-extras installed? | |
| [15:19] <rcw2> i think i may have done that a year ago, and it was a lot of setup | |
| [15:19] <koontz> Hmm, I wonder if the issue is the dir youy should plugins is is different between chrome and chromium. Does anyone know? The stuff I read all mentions /usr/lib/chromium-browser/plugins | |
| [15:19] <koontz> BluesKaj: of course | |
| [15:19] <BluesKaj> ok, well gotta ask | |
| [15:19] <koontz> Im wondering if the chrome plugin dir might be something like /usr/lib/chrome/plugins instead | |
| [15:22] <koontz> Ya, looks like the path is different. I am seeing /opt/google/chrome/plugins/ in some other docs | |
| [15:23] <BluesKaj> koontz, there seems to be a problem with chromium-browser not using the pepperflash.so file , however google chrome has it installed by default, whether the correct java plugin is used is another story , but <i'm not having any issues using chrome | |
| [15:23] <koontz> well ya chromium wont use pepper flash unless you kinda force it to | |
| [15:23] <koontz> But im not using chromium, im using chrome. And of course pepperflash is bundled | |
| [15:23] <BluesKaj> koontz, there's aplugin in the repos for it | |
| [15:24] <koontz> ya i know | |
| [15:24] <BluesKaj> should work | |
| [15:24] <koontz> im not worried bout flash, flash works mint | |
| [15:24] <koontz> my issue is java strictly | |
| [15:24] <koontz> which looks to be a case of haviung the wrong dir | |
| [15:24] <koontz> cause the /opt/google/chrome/plugins/ isnt even there | |
| [15:24] <BluesKaj> yes, but maybe chrome has the right java plugin | |
| [15:25] <koontz> huh? chrome doesnt bundle java with it like it does flash | |
| [15:25] <BluesKaj> I'm assuming it does since chrome doesn't have problems with java on my setup | |
| [15:26] <koontz> chrome most definitely does not bundle java, but ok... | |
| [15:27] <koontz> well i fixed it | |
| [15:27] <koontz> i think... | |
| [15:30] <koontz> BluesKaj: so you are running chrome (not chromium), and all you did was install java (openjdk) as part of restricted extras or whatever, and java works? (it shows in chrome://plugins) | |
| [15:33] <BluesKaj> koontz, exactly | |
| [15:33] <koontz> weird, doesnt work that way for me | |
| [15:33] <koontz> it doesnt create any of the common chrome/chromium plugins dirs, nor does it populate them with the plugin obviously | |
| [15:34] <BluesKaj> koontz, /opt/google , but I think you already mentioned that | |
| [15:35] <ni291187> hi, not sure how I did it but I went to console mode while having an x session. how do I go. ack to graphic mode? | |
| [15:35] <koontz> ya opt/google/chrome/plugins | |
| [15:35] <koontz> wait.... i just realized i have i386 chrome, obviously that wouldnt work with amd64 java | |
| [15:36] <BluesKaj> ni291187, ctl+alt+f7-8 | |
| [15:36] <ni291187> tx it worked | |
| [15:38] <spectre> some one know C Language ?? | |
| [15:39] <koontz> now that I got the amd64 build of chrome it worked fine | |
| [15:39] <koontz> I didnt notice google auto gave me the 386 vertsion when I used their site to download and install | |
| [15:40] <koontz> And im using the oracle java (i prefer it for android) | |
| [15:41] <BluesKaj> right | |
| [15:43] <BluesKaj> Firefox doesn't accept the pepperflash plugin so some sites with newer flash players don't work | |
| [15:44] <koontz> Right pepperflash is chromium based browsers only | |
| [15:44] <koontz> I dont like the normal flash plugin on linux because you cant scroll over a flash element | |
| [15:44] <koontz> Ive always found that annoying over the years | |
| [15:45] <BluesKaj> FF linux is deprecated iirc | |
| [15:46] <koontz> pretty much | |
| [15:46] <koontz> besides security updates | |
| [15:46] <koontz> same with android | |
| [15:46] <koontz> I will be a happy man the day flash finally goes away | |
| [15:47] <koontz> I use html5 for almost everything on youtube, which used to be the bulk of my flash usage | |
| [15:47] <BluesKaj> too bad, I do prefer FF for the desktop since it integrates better with the gtk font settings etc, the crome tabs are unreadable on a large monitor even with higher dpi settings | |
| [15:49] <koontz> Hmm aria2c or axel? anyone have any opinions on one might be do the job better than the other, especially for something like apt-fast? | |
| [15:49] <koontz> err, butchered my engrish | |
| [15:51] <genii> !info fatrat | |
| [15:51] <ubottu> fatrat (source: fatrat): multi-protocol download manager, feature rich and extensible via plugin. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.2.0~beta2-0ubuntu6 (saucy), package size 1407 kB, installed size 3132 kB | |
| [15:51] <koontz> ya, not compatible with apt-fast | |
| [15:51] <koontz> thanks though | |
| [15:52] <spectre> how to change my nickname in weechar irc please | |
| [15:52] <koontz> spectre: /nick nickname | |
| [15:52] <koontz> unless you mean in the weechat config, in which case read the documentation or ask in #weechat (where they will likely say the same) | |
| [15:52] <spectre> thank you koontz | |
| [15:53] <koontz> genii: do you know if fatrat has a cli backend? | |
| [15:56] <genii> koontz: A minimal type one, yes. http://fatrat.dolezel.info/doc/contents/cmdline.html | |
| [15:56] <koontz> cool | |
| [15:57] <koontz> then there might be a possibility to use the custom feature in apt-fast to make it work with fatrat, but still I think fatrat is a bit much for something as simple as apt-fast | |

| [21:36] <koontz> Hey guys, I'm back. I've deiced to put kubuntu onto my new laptop, ASUS G750W (GW750-DWP71 to be exact). Problem is being its my first UEFI machine, and while I have worked on a uefi before it had the ability to disable uefi and use a legacy mode. This laptop does not have that | |
| [21:38] <bprompt> iirc the issue in linux is if you're dual-booting with windows7 or 8, and if you're using secureboot option fro uefi | |
| [21:38] <koontz> So when I go to install and do amnual partition it says I need a special boot partition (not a /boot. but i forget the wording) so I create one of those biosgrub Boot Reserve space partitioons or whatever they are called, and I assume I install grub to that, but it fails | |
| [21:38] <koontz> ya, im not using secureboot | |
| [21:38] <koontz> that i know for sure | |
| [21:38] <koontz> its been disabled since i bought the thing | |
| [21:39] <koontz> So even when I try and use guided partitoning it still fails when it tries to install grub | |
| [21:39] <koontz> And its using one of the grubbios partitions, and thats what it fails to install the bootloader to | |
| [21:40] <koontz> So I neecd to know the correct scheme here to get it to work. Ive seen a few others successfully get it installed on the machine, but they dont say how. And the documentation really makes zero sense to me. I have plenty of computer and linhux experiences (decades) but none with uefi | |
| [21:40] <koontz> All I know is its uefi, doesnt have legacy mode, and secureboot is off | |
| [21:41] <bprompt> right | |
| [21:42] <koontz> And grub fails to install when i install it to the reserve boot partition (biosgrub) partition | |
| [21:42] <bprompt> are you dual-booting with windows? | |
| [21:43] <koontz> Anbd obviously when I install it to the MBR like a normal bootloader, the uefi doesnt see that | |
| [21:43] <koontz> Currently yes. But i am gonna wipe windows. | |
| [21:43] <koontz> But i dont see how windows is effecting anything, because secureboot is off | |
| [21:44] <koontz> And its not like i have a legacy mode..... | |
| [21:44] <bprompt> right.... but I could be mistaken, but I'd think your partitions aren't GPT'ed and thus the UEFI partitioning bit isn't going well | |
| [21:45] <koontz> could yolu elaborate | |
| [21:45] <bprompt> hmm do you know what GPT is? | |
| [21:45] <koontz> it installs, the data is there, etc. just cant get grub to install | |
| [21:46] <koontz> vaguely, i havent messed with gpt or uefi in awhile | |
| [21:46] <bprompt> well GPT and UEFI go almost always hand in hand | |
| [21:46] <koontz> i had a desktop that had uefi and it came with gpt partitioning originally | |
| [21:46] <koontz> ok | |
| [21:46] <koontz> ya they generally do | |
| [21:47] <bprompt> GPT is the newer BIOS per se, the newest NVRAM chipset POST set | |
| [21:48] <bprompt> so depending on the firmware in that machine, which is fairly new, a couple of years old, it may or may not allow UEFI-mbr boot | |
| [21:50] <koontz> I dont mind wiping windows, i was gonna do it anyway. But i dont really understand why it would stop grub from installing. So i feel like I dont have the instructions correct as far as installing grub on a uefi machine | |
| [21:50] <koontz> I see some things saying to use a seperate fat32 partition, then I see using this biosgrub partition thing | |
| [21:50] <koontz> Which is an option in the dropdown duriung the partitioning | |
| [21:50] <koontz> well its a pretty new machine | |
| [21:50] <koontz> Gen4 intel | |
| [21:50] <koontz> ya it doesnt allow mbr boot | |
| [21:50] <koontz> it wont recognize a bootloader in the mbr | |
| [21:50] <koontz> the ubuntu installer even warns of that | |
| [21:51] <bprompt> right..... but my guess is that the UEFI bit may try to use the GPT'ed partitions | |
| [21:52] <koontz> ok so? | |
| [21:52] <koontz> I mean wouldnt the partitions im creating be gpt | |
| [21:52] <koontz> if the p[artition table was originally gpt, and im just adding partitoions, they should be gpt | |
| [21:53] * koontz is confused | |
| [21:53] <bprompt> so... wipe everything, including partitions, make a new partition to install to, a GPT one | |
| [21:53] <koontz> and as far as installing grub? | |
| [21:53] <bprompt> hmm | |
| [21:54] <bprompt> well... I'm thinking grub maybe stalling, thinking you had MBR partitions | |
| [21:54] <koontz> nah | |
| [21:54] <koontz> it will install to the mbr, though that wont work | |
| [21:54] <koontz> but it fails if i install it to that special partition it tells me to make | |
| [21:55] <bprompt> tried the fellows at #ubuntu yet? | |
| [21:55] <koontz> nope | |
| [21:55] <bprompt> give them a whirl I'd think :) | |
| [21:55] <koontz> ewh... | |
| [21:56] <bprompt> hehe | |
| [21:56] <koontz> maybe when i get more desperate :P | |
| [21:56] <bprompt> is the same OS you know, and some of them are rather helpful | |
| [21:56] <koontz> oh i know | |
| [21:56] <koontz> its not like i havent been there | |
| [21:57] <koontz> the channel just tends to be very busy and easily gives me a headache | |
| [21:57] <bprompt> well... that's workable with a good irc client | |
| [21:58] <bprompt> I mean, i'm usually in hectic channels often, and I'd use an irc client that does hightlights or colors each nick | |
| [21:58] <koontz> no offense to anyone here, but its mainly the population there that tends to give me a headache :P | |
| [21:59] <koontz> Whenever I ask questions that are a bit more in depth, they never get answered. | |
| [22:00] <bprompt> understood | |
| [22:00] <koontz> im doing a bit more googling first | |
