seeit 2017-03-05 21:06:13
I might make the switch to kubuntu
magkneetoe 2017-03-05 21:06:17

ducasse 2017-03-05 21:09:31
magkneetoe: you don't need to downoad an image and reinstall, just install the kubuntu packages
magkneetoe 2017-03-05 21:10:02
ducasse: how do i remove every instance of GNOME
hateball 2017-03-05 21:10:32
that's not simple, nor needed unless you have a tiny disk
magkneetoe 2017-03-05 21:10:32
i will do what that instead then
magkneetoe 2017-03-05 21:11:00
so it wont affect the fact that i had gnome before
magkneetoe 2017-03-05 21:11:14
it wont try to have gnome run anymore
ducasse 2017-03-05 21:11:35

magkneetoe 2017-03-05 21:12:39
sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
magkneetoe 2017-03-05 21:12:42
right?
ducasse 2017-03-05 21:13:21
that should work
Vadi 2017-03-05 21:16:25
The dash keeps turning off scopes I want to search in... if I want to search for a particular virtualbox vm, I have to go and turn the virtualbox scope on _every single time_. Is that intended?
hateball 2017-03-05 21:19:13
magkneetoe: dunno if https://bugs.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/+bug/1451728 is fixed properly or not
ubottu 2017-03-05 21:19:15
Launchpad bug 1451728 in kaccounts-integration (Ubuntu) "[master] kde-config-telepathy-accounts package install error" [Critical,In progress]
hateball 2017-03-05 21:19:23
that's a showstopper you might run into
magkneetoe 2017-03-05 21:23:36
hateball: i will let u know.
seeit 2017-03-05 21:23:36
hateball: does a fresh install of kubuntu work?
seeit 2017-03-05 21:23:44
don't do it from apt-get
seeit 2017-03-05 21:23:45

magkneetoe 2017-03-05 21:23:52

hateball 2017-03-05 21:23:59
seeit: Yes, fresh install works just fine
magkneetoe 2017-03-05 21:24:12
thanks guys
hateball 2017-03-05 21:24:33
And installing with apt works as well, if you remove a package prior to installing kubuntu-desktop, as detailed in the bug report

I'm having trouble with keyboards lately. After upgrading/installing 16.04 my keyboard input stops for a few seconds, misses a few keypresses and then starts working normally again. This is happening on wired and wireless keyboards on a custom tower PC and also a stock Toshiba laptop with built in keyboard. Any ideas?

Hello. When I use LibreOffice's File->Send as Mail function a new mail in thunderbird is composed but it's empty and without an attached document. Any idea why? (Ubuntu 16.04)
