| dreamwarrior | hi guys..i have a problem or an issue after installing kubuntu 17.04 in two different HD,...can i write the problem and anyone can answer ? | 16:19 |
| mparillo | !ask | 16:59 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 16:59 |

| redphantom | Hi follks. can anything be done to mitigate high I/O usage from effecting the smoothness of Ubuntu? My system is freezing up every few seconds when large files are being moved, every single time. Kubuntu 17.04 | 17:34 |
| lordievader | redphantom: What IO schedular are you using? | 17:38 |
| redphantom | lordievader: i have to admit i'm a linux newb. how would I find this information out? | 17:40 |
| redphantom | I am using cfq | 17:42 |
| redphantom | I know how to google though >:) so i should change my I/O scheduler to something else? Which would you recommend? | 17:43 |
| momken | hello | 17:44 |
| momken | Any maintainer of kubuntu-backport ppa here? | 17:44 |
| momken | I found a very very important bug in Qt5 for Persian/Arabic users which are fixed in Qt 5.6.3 and Qt 5.8.1 | 17:45 |
| momken | https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-42074 | 17:45 |
| momken | https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-58364 | 17:45 |
| momken | It seems that releasing the next Kubuntu backports PPA with Qt 5.6.3 or Qt 5.8.1 is very essential for fixing these critical bugs in Qt text engine for Persian/Arabic languages | 17:47 |
| momken | The Qt 5.7.1 shipped wih Ubuntu 17.04 won't fix this issue! We need newer versions of Qt! | 17:50 |
| mparillo | momken: Thank you very much. I believe that since Qt is shared by many *buntu components (including the recently deprecated Unity 8), that the Kubuntu team no longer can control Qt upgrades. I suggest you ask in #ubuntu-devel or #ubuntu-ir. I would not be surprised if they ask you to file a launchpad.net tracking item linking to your upstream bugs. | 17:54 |
| momken | mparillo: I know that Ubuntu 16.04 stable won't upgrade its Qt versions easily, due to stability and integrity issues. But there is an independent kubuntu-backports ppa too | 17:57 |
| momken | https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/ubuntu/backports | 17:57 |
| momken | However I guess they will only backport Qt versions of 17.04 back for 16.04 users which is not enough | 17:58 |
| mparillo | I think there are two different 'theys'. For 16.04 LTS, the Kubuntu team would like to keep Plasma 5.8 up-to-date, since it is an LTS itself, but not necessarily upgrade to 5.9. I think that his implcations for all dependencies (Qt and frameworks, especially)/ | 18:00 |
| redphantom | well i changed my i/o scheduler to noop, i was unable to switch to anticipatory. hopefully this works. thanks for the help lordievader | 18:00 |
| momken | mparillo: By 'they' I meant maintainers of kubuntu-ppa backports | 18:05 |
| momken | https://launchpad.net/%7Ekubuntu-ppa/+archive/ubuntu/backports/+index?batch=75&memo=1050&start=1050 | 18:05 |
| lordievader | redphantom: No, cfq should be the best in this case. | 18:22 |
| lordievader | redphantom: It ensures that each contender gets a fair slice. | 18:23 |
| lordievader | Though you could experiment with the deadline scheduler, of course. | 18:23 |
| IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> kernel team switched to CFQ from deadine by default for 17.04 for all flavours. except kubunty as we alreday set CFQ in our kubuntu configs | 18:25 |

| aboulafia_ | hi, impossible to install Kubuntu lts 16 on external hdd | 20:43 |
| aboulafia_ | no idea ? | 21:06 |
| kojak | hello I have a problem and need some advise please | 21:10 |
| aboulafia_ | kojak: if i can help ? | 21:11 |
| kojak | I upgraded my system and installed which installed a new kernel. While cleaning my old kernel I remove the generic modules | 21:11 |
| kojak | aboulafia_: yes please | 21:11 |
| kojak | now I lost all my kernel modules and I can't connect any network device may it be my wifi on board | 21:12 |
| kojak | or any usb/ethernet adapter | 21:12 |
| kojak | I have an encrypted drive on it and a lot of code I can't afford loosing | 21:13 |
| aboulafia_ | kojak: normally you can reboot with the old kernel and fix it | 21:13 |
| kojak | No I can't I removed it | 21:14 |
| kojak | I have a recovery option for the current kernel but when I connect the network it simply fail | 21:14 |
| kojak | when I resume start it launches kde correctly but network manager is showing a red tv and can't connect | 21:15 |
| aboulafia_ | kojak: i do not understand. Did you removed the old kernel ? | 21:15 |
| kojak | yes | 21:15 |
| aboulafia_ | kojak: big mistake...Try to compile a new kernel with the module you need & debian mode and intall it. | 21:16 |
| kojak | it was an a completion to the purge command | 21:17 |
| kojak | aboulafia_: how do I do that | 21:17 |
| kojak | aboulafia_: when I boot and go to the grub menu I only go to advanced system boot | 21:18 |
| kojak | then I choose recovery | 21:18 |
| kojak | the only option are linux 4.8.0.54 and its recovery mode | 21:19 |
| kojak | first fails second works | 21:19 |
| aboulafia_ | kojak: but if you had upgraded your kernel by an update you should have the option for the previous kernel on grub | 21:20 |
| kojak | I don't see it where it should be ? | 21:20 |
| aboulafia_ | on the boot menu of grub | 21:20 |
| kojak | the only things I have on the grub menu are ubuntu advanced boot option and system settings | 21:21 |
| kojak | last reboots to the bios | 21:21 |
| kojak | first doesn't work and get stuck at early boot stages and second works as told you | 21:21 |
| aboulafia_ | sorry, you but my knowledge on Kubuntu is not enough to fix it | 21:22 |
| kojak | aboulafia_: /lib only shows modules for 4.8.0.54 which seems to be the only present kernel | 21:23 |
| kojak | Is there any way to book on a usb drive try to copy the modules on my hard drive and modprob it at reboot ? | 21:24 |
| kojak | maybe I can try upgrading to kubuntu 17.04 via usb key ? | 21:26 |
| kojak | aboulafia_: any thoughts on it ? | 21:28 |
| aboulafia_ | kojak: it can be a solution, | 21:28 |
| kojak | I don't know if there is a proper way to do it ? | 21:28 |
| aboulafia_ | kojak: in the other hand, you can probably download the module you need and firmware by .deb. I do that on Debian but as I say my knoledge on K/ubuntu are limited | 21:30 |
| aboulafia_ | kojak: in your case, begin to backup all your datas before lost it | 21:31 |
| kojak | aboulafia_: looks like you can do a usb upgrade https://askubuntu.com/questions/396727/upgrade-ubuntu-option-not-availiable-when-installing-from-usb-stick | 21:31 |
| kojak | aboulafia_: how can I find which deb i need to make my wifi work ? | 21:32 |
| aboulafia_ | kojak: if you do not have a second computer...but if you are here you have Internet | 21:33 |
| kojak | I do | 21:33 |
| kojak | I am on windows :x | 21:33 |
| aboulafia_ | as i said, on debain it is easy : you download the package you need on the main website | 21:34 |
| aboulafia_ | on ubuntu, i don't know | 21:34 |
| kojak | aboulafia_: yes it is the same I think but how do I know which package to download | 21:34 |
| === usuario2 is now known as NatashaHack | ||
| aboulafia_ | i'm here because the installation program of Kubunt 16.04 has a bug and I can't install it | 21:35 |
| aboulafia_ | but it is a complete blackout here | 21:35 |
| kojak | seems so | 21:35 |
| aboulafia_ | for the network, you need the firmware for your network chipset | 21:36 |
| aboulafia_ | but before that, check on a terminal what you have now | 21:36 |
| aboulafia_ | if with ifconfig you do not see any card, download the frimawere | 21:37 |
| kojak | I have a realtek r8152 | 21:37 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | honestly OBS + DS3 would definitely | 21:37 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | saturate your cpu | 21:37 |
| kojak | and I don't see it | 21:37 |
| Fire-Dragon-DoL | UPS forgive me, wrong chat | 21:37 |
| kojak | ifconfig only shows localhost | 21:37 |
| aboulafia_ | not good. your module is not activated or missing | 21:38 |
| aboulafia_ | sorry, i have to leave now. | 21:38 |
| kojak | aboulafia_: ok thank you very much | 21:39 |
| kojak | good luck to | 21:39 |
| aboulafia_ | I need to install a new distributon on a computer | 21:39 |
| aboulafia_ | probably somebody can help you here when they wake up | 21:39 |
| aboulafia_ | good luck | 21:39 |
