[06:59] <mibnotsupported> Hi all, is 18.04 20180424 ok to use right now?
[06:59] <mibnotsupported> Will I easily be able to update it out of RC in two days
[07:03] <hateball> mibnotsupported: if you're already on 18.04 you will just update as normal
[07:09] <mibnotsupported> Ah ok, so no need to change sources of some unstable channel in a bit?
[07:10] <hateball> mibnotsupported: nope
[07:10] <mibnotsupported> Great, thanks! Gonna go throw it on in that other partition
[08:00] <katnip> is there a +1 channel for kubuntu 18.04?
[08:11] <acheronuk> katnip: not officially, apart from #ubuntu+1
[08:14] <katnip> ok
[08:15] <acheronuk> I think at this stage, lines are blurred as to what goes where
[08:56] <mibbitnotsupport> lmfao just managed to pull that rc image of kubuntu 18 amd64
[08:57] <mibbitnotsupport> and just found that oem install didn't passed but with bug. installation works but computer won't reboot itself. something about microcode
[08:57] <mibbitnotsupport> i have a haswell i5 and just got the end of 2016 bios patch with IME fix
[08:57] <mibbitnotsupport> wonder if it'll do the trick...
[09:06] <blueduck> hi guys, just wanted to congratulate and thank you guys for the work you did in 18.04, its the best release yet.
[09:15] <acheronuk> blueduck: good to hear. thanks
[09:34] <user|8803> What about kubuntu 18? Can I have a manual of it?
[09:54] <katnip> what is shim signed and does it require a reboot?
[10:09] <hateball> katnip: sounds like you have installed the nvidia driver?
[10:22] <katnip> no
[10:22] <katnip> no nvidia
[10:22] <katnip> laptop with amd/intel
[10:23] <katnip> if it doesnt require a reboot that is fine with me :)
[10:23] <katnip> it installed as an update alone
[10:25] <mibbitnotsupport> yup. kubuntu apr 24 daily failing from bootable usb
[10:25] <mibbitnotsupport> update microcode
[10:25] <mibbitnotsupport> amd64 image
[10:26] <mibbitnotsupport> cpu is i5 4210u i think
[10:26] <mibbitnotsupport> haswell
[10:26] <mibbitnotsupport> if that's even the right microcode i'm talking about, hell if i know
[10:36] <mibbitnotsupport> I don't get this... my GRUB install is the beta one commonly used prior to this
[10:36] <mibbitnotsupport> I updated my bios to latest, which probably has some spectre/meltdown workarounds
[10:37] <mibbitnotsupport> But that old grub still works. Meanwhile this image won't even show me the grub menu fml :/
[11:08] <BluesKaj> Hi folks
[11:14] <mibbitnotsupport> Hi. So anyone was able to install the latest ubuntu snapshot on a physical machine running an intel cpu?
[11:15] <mibbitnotsupport> All bug reports talk about failure to reboot. Mine doesn't even show me the grub options
[11:17] <BluesKaj> mibbitnotsupport, what does it show ?
[11:17] <mibbitnotsupport> I think it's this, prior to even showing me the grub options:
[11:18] <mibbitnotsupport> TSC_DEADLINE disabled due to Errata: please update microcode to version: 0x20 (or later)
[11:18] <mibbitnotsupport> Then hangs in a black screen eventually
[11:22] <BluesKaj> mibbitnotsupport, if you can get to a tty, ctl+alt+F2-F6, then this will probly solve your problem, https://askubuntu.com/questions/984970/firmware-bug-tsc-deadline-disabled-due-to-errata-what-should-i-do-about-thi
[11:24] <mibbitnotsupport> Yes, I'll try that, but not sure: didn't look like I had any options. Will I even have apt-get, sudo, etc available at that point? It's just the syslinux
[11:24] <BluesKaj> once you have a ttty/vt prompt just run, sudo apt-get install intel-microcode
[11:25] <mibbitnotsupport> Alright, I'll brb. Gonna try it. The host machine is this one unfortunately
[11:26] <BluesKaj> ok
[11:42] <neyder> good morning, gentile people
[11:43] <neyder> trough years, i have many HDD with my home, so how can i merge and sync those $HOME into current main system?
[11:43] <neyder> i mean how to compare two dirs, find duplicate files and syn all to one
[11:44] <BluesKaj> !rsync
[11:44] <BluesKaj> neyder,^
[11:45] <neyder> ty BluesKaj, i knew to sync, but duplicate files in $/HOME/f/o/o and $home/bar
[11:46] <BluesKaj> my understanding is rsync avoids duplication if the correct options are used
[11:57] <neyder> BluesKaj: will read
[11:57] <neyder> ty
[11:59] <BluesKaj> ok
[12:45] <bodhistars> hello world
[12:45] <bodhistars> testing
[12:46] <acheronuk> it worked
[12:46] <bodhistars> nice
[12:46] <bodhistars> fresh new kubunto on my rig
[12:46] <bodhistars> kubuntu
[12:48] <BluesKaj> right, allworking well, bodhistars/
[12:48] <BluesKaj> ?
[12:48] <bodhistars> had some problems in uefi
[12:49] <bodhistars> and flikering screen on nvidia \
[12:49] <bodhistars> all done now
[12:50] <BluesKaj> yeah, UEFIs a pain I'm lucky to avoid with my hybrid BIOS
[12:50] <bodhistars> u are lucky
[12:51] <BluesKaj> MSI Z370 Pro motherboard ..cool design
[12:53] <acheronuk> 'all done now' means what? fixed?
[12:53] <bodhistars> well flikering in dual screen /
[13:01] <BluesKaj> bodhistars, have you run the Driver Manager in System settings to find the recommended driver for your nvidia gpu?
[15:27] <neyder> how to check which graphic server i'm running?
[15:28] <neyder> bionic running
[15:32] <acheronuk> inxi -G
[19:20] <curryflower> kubuntu support!
[19:20] <curryflower> yay!
[19:37] <curryflower> dpkg query: package 'bcmwl-kernel source' is not installed and no information is available
[19:39] <curryflower> "sudo modprobe wl"      returns: modprobe: FATAL: Module wl not found in directory..... apologies, not really sure where to start with this question.. but it seems that some packages are missing... i tried installing the bcmwl from the live usb but it says dependencies not met
[19:40] <curryflower> and a few other things I noticedso basically, no internet connection on the laptop.. unable to sudo apt update with errors like "temporary failure resolving us.archive..." "security.ubuntu.com" etc
[19:42] <curryflower> dkms is not installed, and after sudo apt install dkms the error returns "unable to locate package dkms"
[19:53] <valorie> curryflower: can you hook up the laptop with a cable or so?
[19:53] <curryflower> sadly, I cannot. Luckily, I have an additional laptop.
[19:53] <valorie> kubuntu isn't made to be installed without access to the internet
[19:53] <curryflower> I do have access to the internet
[19:53] <valorie> how about using a phone and sharing internet with it that way?
[19:54] <curryflower> The problem is that laptop I've just installed Kubuntu on cannot access the internet
[19:55] <curryflower> It's only allowing for wired connection
[20:04] <curryflower> I can install the packages manually from the USB, and I've located most of the necessary ones... but some have to be manually extracted and i'm not sure where to place them
[20:06] <katnip> kubuntu #1
[20:08] <genii> We tend to agree
[20:28] <jejones3141> I have updated two computers to 18.04 final beta, and for some reason I am presented with a graphic keyboard when I log in. Before, there was just a button that I believe presented it as an option. Neither computer has a touchscreen, and I would like to not have to make the graphic keyboard go away. Where is this configured?
