 @TBotNik__, sorry to jump in so late, as valorie said, AFAIK, is very improbable MetroPCS installed something simply by connecting to their hotspot, did you tried to clean browser(s) cache and all that stuff? also checked proxy configuration?
 @TBotNik__, maybe your friend isn't a good friend and installed something in your machine? the most vulnerable security point is the layer 8!
[06:16] <lordievader> Good morning
[08:41] <forcerecon> Good morning..
[08:42] <forcerecon> I am having a tough time getting vmware tools to work properly in my Kubuntu session.. Its installed, just not working.. and where is the setting for resolution
[08:43] <lordievader> forcerecon: Systemsettings -> Display and Monitor -> Displays, to change the resolution.
[08:45] <forcerecon> ahh.. I had to scroll down.. thanks.. did not see it since I can't get vmware tools to work properly, but at least now I can work on it.. thanks
[08:50] <forcerecon> this is odd, in 17 if I go su - The password is incorrect.. is there a default su password out there
[08:54] <lordievader> forcerecon: root has no password.
[08:54] <lordievader> Use sudo for that.
[08:54] <lordievader> !sudo
[09:05] <forcerecon> I am seeing some really long connection times to us.archive.ubuntu.com almost always over 5 minutes.. is this common
[09:06] <lordievader> You might want to switch to another mirror.
[09:16] <forcerecon> works like a charm.. thanks lordievader
[09:16] <forcerecon> have a great day!
[10:00] <BluesKaj> Hi folks
[10:27] <forcerecon> Hello BluesKaj
[10:39] <BluesKaj> 'Morning forcerecon
[10:43] <forcerecon> you sleep in today ;)
[10:44] <forcerecon> is there a list of current issues with the 17.x release?
[10:45] <BluesKaj> no, it's 6:45AM here, i was up at $AM
[10:46] <BluesKaj> 5AM -)
[10:47] <forcerecon> heh... I had to change the resolution for kubuntu as a guest OS.. no matter what I do I cannot get vmware tools to work.. it is all installed.. it just will not respond.. but I do like the interface of kubuntu..
[10:47] <forcerecon> had to change repo as well.. the us.archive was taking way to long to update.. over 5 minutes
[10:47] <hateball> forcerecon: how did you install tools?
[10:48] <hateball> forcerecon: it's recommended you use open-vm-tools and not vmwares
[10:48] <BluesKaj> 17.04 ? not that i'm aware, vmware isn't an ordinary VM installation
[10:48] <forcerecon> well I try it the normal way first.. since it was consistently greyed out.. I tried sudo apt-get install open-vm-tools.. that worked but needed more packages so I added desktop
[10:48] <forcerecon> still nothing
[10:49] <hateball> forcerecon: and is 17.04 supported in... whatever VmWare product you use
[10:50] <forcerecon> the interface seems to be stuck in an upgrading tools mode, greyed out..  vmware player... I cannot see why it would not be.. I have almost 10 different OS's installed in vmware and Kubuntu is the only one that I cannot get to work.. I just changed the resolution to 800x600 and that gets me through.. but I would like to see it work at some point
[10:51] <forcerecon> I am in the kubuntu forums atm seeing whats going on there
[10:52] <forcerecon> seems to be a potential thing - https://www.kubuntuforums.net/showthread.php/71410-Screen-Resolution-Problem?highlight=vmware
[10:59] <forcerecon> I hate when you find a question that is the exact same thing you are seeing and there is no solution posted.. lol..  gotta keep looking
[10:59] <forcerecon> https://askubuntu.com/questions/410188/why-do-vmware-tools-not-let-me-enlarge-my-screen
[11:01] <mparillo> forcerecon: From a commandline on the guest, I used to use sudo apt update && sudo apt install open-vm-tools-desktop -y
[11:05] <forcerecon> I already did both and desktop..  but I will run the command, see what happens
[11:05] <mparillo> And then I would restart my VM.
[11:14] <forcerecon> I can see what it is doing now.. it is connecting over ipv6
[11:15] <forcerecon> and the address is changing every few minutes..
[11:16] <forcerecon> 0% [Connecting to security.ubuntu.com (2001:67c:1562::16)]
[11:29] <forcerecon> it did not update anything, but after I applied a new desktop ARC, which failed to load well, then uninstalled and then went back to breeze with a reboot.. now vmware tools are working.. eh.. Im happy..
[11:29] <forcerecon> thanks for all your patience :)
[11:33] <Unit193> Could try forcing IPv4 and see if that does better.
[11:42] <forcerecon> How in kubuntu do you make it so that when you open a window like system settings that when you expand it and move it, it will open at that size and that location in the future
[11:43] <BluesKaj> forcerecon, what do you mean by location ?
[11:44] <forcerecon> where I move it to on the screen.. all of the (are we calling them windows) open top left corner at a specific size.  I want it larger and in the middle of the screen where I put it.
[11:45] <forcerecon> each time I open it I want it to be where I put it on the screen at the size I made it
[11:45] <forcerecon> make sense?
[11:45] <BluesKaj> in kde there virtual desktops, activities, activities with VDs
[11:45] <BluesKaj> there are
[11:46] <BluesKaj> for example I use 6 virtual desktops and aeach one has an app assigned to it
[11:47] <forcerecon> I only have one VD.. on that VD when I open settings it is always at the top left.
[11:48] <forcerecon> is there a way to make it open in the middle of the screen or at a location of my choice on the 1 VD
[11:49] <BluesKaj> for the size , right click on the tirlebar>more actions>special application settings. choose position and size, do this after youve made it the size and position you prefer
[11:50] <forcerecon> if I decided to go to Kubuntu and since I have 3 monitors, I want things to open on the monitors I choose, not always on the main monitor at the top left.. oooooh okay let me try that
[11:50] <BluesKaj> on each application
[11:51] <forcerecon> yahoo.. that works.. thanks so much
[11:51] <forcerecon> you are brilliant!
[11:51] <BluesKaj> did youi choose remember?
[11:51] <forcerecon> yes, yes I did
[11:52] <BluesKaj> ok
[11:53] <BluesKaj> back in the plasma4 days we could have different background for each VD , now one has to the actitvities for that which is much clunkier
[11:53] <BluesKaj> use activities
[11:54] <forcerecon> understood.. thanks for explaining..
[11:54] <BluesKaj> but, it is an option if you feel the need
[12:05] <forcerecon> economy.canonical.com is in the UK?
[12:06] <forcerecon> BAD Tcp
[12:18] <forcerecon> http://i.imgur.com/epAHKru.png - really liking this kubuntu
[12:48] <forcerecon> mode +R really works I guess I saw nothing..
[12:49] <oerheks> that dude has been banned so many times, i hope the ban sticks for now.
[12:51] <forcerecon> was there spam?
[12:51] <BluesKaj> he keeps trying, not realizing changing his nick doesn't change his IP
[12:52] <forcerecon> lately things have been good with +R as I have not gotten any spam or crap
[12:52] <forcerecon> so he has the ability to create a spam bot, but not the ability to utilize a VPN
[12:52] <forcerecon> odd
[12:55] <forcerecon> where in kubuntu is the ability to hide icons on the desktop.. I don't need to see Trash
[12:55] <BluesKaj> just right click and remove
[12:56] <forcerecon> there is no remove option
[12:57] <BluesKaj> no remove this icon?
[12:57] <oerheks> just drag it to thrash ..?
[12:58] <forcerecon> no.. that was first thing I tried.. Open Cut Copy Rename Empty and some others..
[13:01] <BluesKaj> forcerecon, right click on the desktop>configure desktop>layout=desktop, then try removing the icon
[13:02] <BluesKaj> I never cared for folder view
[13:02] <forcerecon> when you do that, it dissapears on its own and so does the HOME
[13:02] <forcerecon> I wanted to keep the HOME..
[13:02] <forcerecon> I am going through all the settings one at  time.. has to be some place..
[13:03] <BluesKaj> i just use  quick launch in the panel and copy apps to that , helps keep the desktop unclutterd
[13:04] <hateball> forcerecon: you need to unlock widgets
[13:04] <forcerecon> okay so in folder view you can go to location
[13:04] <hateball> forcerecon: then just hover over said widget and a menu appears, lets you remove it
[13:05] <hateball> rightclick the desktop area and unlock widgets, in case they are not
[13:05] <forcerecon> then you have the options to show desktop folders, show files, Show a place or Specify a folder..
[13:05] <forcerecon> all good now
[13:05] <forcerecon> Configure Desktop > Location
[13:05] <forcerecon> nice
[13:07] <forcerecon> wow..  integrated KDE Menu Editor.. sweet
[13:13] <forcerecon> Sorry, the program "plasmashell" closed unexpectedly Your computer does not have enough free memory to automatically analyze the problem and send a report to the developers.
[15:15] <JonelethIrenicus> anyone know how to get kio-gdrive in 16.04?
[15:16] <oerheks> just drag it to thrash ..?
[15:16] <oerheks> oops
[15:18] <oerheks> JonelethIrenicus, build it from source ? https://community.kde.org/KIO_GDrive
[15:18] <JonelethIrenicus> oerheks: i think it might be too complicated for me
[15:19] <JonelethIrenicus> would take alot of time to figure out everything
[15:20] <oerheks> JonelethIrenicus, ask them to provide kubuntu/neon debs?
[15:20] <JonelethIrenicus> i think it is in the repo for neon but not kubuntu unfortunately
[15:20] <oerheks> i thought neon got google drive integration already
[15:21] <JonelethIrenicus> i didn't go with neon because i was worried about compatability with other projects I do have to build
[15:22] <oerheks> ,oh, you know how to build
[15:23] <JonelethIrenicus> yeah but building KDE stuff is a whole different ball of wax
[15:25] <JonelethIrenicus> im just worried to install KDE stuff and ruin everything since I haven't done enough research on the whole process
[15:27] <oerheks> i don't know that kio stuff, so i cannot help you.
[15:27] <JonelethIrenicus> oerheks: is all good thanks
[15:28] <JonelethIrenicus> rclone looks simple enough or just wait for a proper release on kubuntu on the next LTS or something
[15:31] <BluesKaj> we don't get many queries about kio-gdrive editing here
[15:56] <jose__> hola
[16:01] <JonelethIrenicus> BluesKaj: i just was hoping to get the package in 16.04
[16:17] <oerheks> JonelethIrenicus, lots of issues with that app, see known issues https://github.com/KDE/kio-gdrive
[16:19] <oerheks> there is a PPA, but with these conditions i would not bother .. http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2017/04/mount-google-drive-ocamlfuse-linux
[16:34] <JonelethIrenicus> oerheks: thanks
 Good Day Everyone!
[20:35] <zonda> shut
[21:46] <[Relic]> is there anything in 14.04 like dolphin that allows deleting of files?
[21:47] <[Relic]> used gwenview, that seems to have worked
