otomo | Hi, I still couldn't upgrade, it keep on saying that there is no release available (and yes I tried bot long term releases and normal releases) | 06:26 |

acheronuk | "Note: Upgrades from 17.10 will not be enabled until a few days after 18.04's release. Upgrades from 16.04 LTS may not be enabled until a few days after the 18.04.1 release expected in late July." | 06:27 |
diogenes_ | otomo, why you need it so urgently? | 06:27 |
otomo | Thanks acheronuk, sorry I didn't know that | 06:28 |
otomo | diogenes, no I don't need it so urgently, as I didn't know that info I thought something could be brong in my Kubuntu | 06:29 |
otomo | so perfect them :), thanks | 06:29 |
otomo | and another not so "important" question, do you know if the new Gimp 2.10 will be released in the official repos of 18.04? Thanks | 06:32 |
=== ZzZzZzzz is now known as redwhite | ||
acheronuk | it's a new feature release, not just a bugfix release, so I would say unlikely for a stable release update. in time perhaps it might get to the archive's unsupported backports section, but I don't know to what degree things are going to go in there for 18.04 yet | 06:36 |
acheronuk | if it is snapped, then it would get an update at some point | 06:37 |
=== FlameReaper-PC is now known as Honoo | ||
Honoo | I have asked a question a few hours back, but it seems nobody was around to answer at that time therefore I'll ask again. It seems a configuration in either my .local or .config folders are preventing KDE from properly displaying the appmenu, be it the global menu or the window decoration button. | 06:40 |
Honoo | I am running 18.04 LTS at the moment, and this problem does not repeat with a new user account. However I need to preserve my current applicationg settings so for me getting rid of my entire .local and .config folders are not an option | 06:41 |
diogenes_ | Honoo, not the entire .config, try to rename your .config/kde* <=== or whatever the plasma config folder is called then re-log and see if that fixes the issue | 06:44 |
Honoo | diogenes_: thank you. I'll try that. | 06:48 |
otomo | Thanks acheronuk | 06:48 |

BluesKaj | Howdy folks | 10:24 |
Markdown1_ | acheronuk thanks for the citation link. | 10:29 |
Markdown1_ | somebody from this room was actually arguing with me that it was already released... | 10:29 |
acheronuk | It is released. However, the meta that allows distribution upgrades is not usually switched for a while after, to give a chance for any left over upgrade bugs shake down | 10:34 |
Markdown1_ | * dist-upgrade was already released I mean. | 10:35 |
acheronuk | you can force it, but you could when 18.04 was still in development, so no change there | 10:37 |
acheronuk | *still in pre-release development | 10:37 |
Markdown1_ | I did a Fresh Install actually, so happy camper here. :) | 10:39 |

nox11 | Hey all! :) I'm having some issues installing Kubuntu 18.04. No matter how I do it, grub install fails. | 12:00 |
nox11 | ubiquity: grub-install: error: efibootmgr failed to register the boot entry: Input/output error | 12:00 |
diogenes_ | nox11, try with legacy mode, no uefi | 12:01 |
ricktimmis[m] | Ok, looks like the uefi boot loader security is stopping you | 12:01 |
=== miguel is now known as Guest48262 | ||
ricktimmis[m] | Yep, legacy | 12:01 |
nox11 | But secureboot is disabled, and all other distros installs fine | 12:01 |
ricktimmis[m] | Ah OK | 12:02 |
nox11 | Anything else that might be wrong? | 12:03 |
ricktimmis[m] | The error says I/O error, can you try again with other distro. Just to check that it is not an MBR error | 12:04 |
ricktimmis[m] | If they still install then we'll need to dig into the logs | 12:04 |
nox11 | Alright! Is there a specific one you'd prefer me trying? | 12:05 |
nox11 | ricktimmis[m]: grub successfully installs and boots with solus | 12:17 |
Lucifer_arma | acheronuk: I had already seen that page. :/ I was wondering if the upgrades had been enabled yet, because it looked like somebody here was doing that | 12:19 |
* Lucifer_arma is in 17.10 with two computers and really wants to hurry up and get 18.04 so he doesn't have to worry about upgrading again for two years | 12:19 | |
acheronuk | Lucifer_arma: no, they have not. neither meta-release or meta-release-lts on http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/ have had 18.04 details added to the yet, and it is that which gets checked by upgrade tools | 12:22 |
pr3c0g | hey all. do you guys recommend to install kubuntu from scratch, or can I go from ubuntu to kubuntu with their guide? | 12:25 |

acheronuk | seems a fair few bugs there. maybe see if any replicate what you get | 12:38 |
acheronuk | and ask in #ubuntu is it's a more general issue | 12:39 |
=== jason is now known as Guest64230 | ||
nox11 | acheronuk: Thank you! Seems like installation fails if installed next to other OSes. Unplugging my other hard drives before installation fixes the issue. | 13:10 |

acheronuk | nox11: cheers. hopefully that will be ironed out in a future update! | 13:11 |
kiroma | Hey I'm having an issue with sddm | 13:16 |
kiroma | I tried compiling it from source but it didn't work as the screen would go completely black | 13:16 |
kiroma | So I removed it and reinstalled the packaged version of SDDM but that doesn't work either now as all I get is a cursor on a black screen. | 13:17 |
kiroma | I can start a graphical session manually with startx. | 13:18 |
BluesKaj | !nomodeset | kiroma | 13:29 |
ubottu | kiroma: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 13:29 |
kiroma | I've got properitary drivers installed, and it's been working fine so far before I did this dumb thing. | 13:31 |
acheronuk | a self build may result in files and config files left over. our packaged version does not have things quite as they would be if built from source | 13:35 |
acheronuk | oh. they quit | 13:38 |
kiroma | nomodeset made the situation even worse. | 13:41 |
BluesKaj | worse, how? | 13:45 |
BluesKaj | seems he doesn't want help, he's just here to complain. | 13:49 |
kiroma | I wasn't able to start an X session anymore, even manually | 13:55 |
kiroma | So I think the issue is with sddm-greeter, it's not able to display the login screen for some reason | 13:56 |
kiroma | sddm works, because I can see and move my cursor around | 13:56 |
kiroma | And everything else works as well as I'm using Konversation to talk right now. | 13:57 |
BluesKaj | kiroma, changed the nomodeset line back to 'quiet splash' in grub ? | 13:59 |
kiroma | yes | 14:01 |
kiroma | With properitary drivers it shouldn't even matter actually so it's a bit confusing. | 14:03 |
hegemon8 | i had issue with UEFI before and grub, bur now as i have no windows on this hdd, i use bios old for it, i'm not sure it can change anuthing in Your case.. | 14:03 |
hegemon8 | anything* | 14:04 |
kiroma | Probably not | 14:04 |
kiroma | Again, everything was working fine before I decided to replace the default sddm with the one compiled locally | 14:05 |
kiroma | I can still run graphical applications and Xorg works just fine | 14:05 |
kiroma | I just can't log in with sddm-greeter. | 14:05 |
BluesKaj | kiroma, <acheronuk> a self build may result in files and config files left over. our packaged version does not have things quite as they would be if built from source | 14:07 |
BluesKaj | this was posted immediately after you left the first time | 14:08 |
kiroma | Oh thank you | 14:08 |
kiroma | Well I've removed every file in the install manifest and reinstalled sddm several times. | 14:08 |
IrcsomeBot | <binaryhermit> it might be easier to reinstall the OS? | 14:11 |
IrcsomeBot | <binaryhermit> just a thought | 14:11 |
kiroma | Unless I've missed some crucial package | 14:14 |
kiroma | So what package should I try reinstalling to restore all the config files? | 14:34 |
kiroma | Because I just noticed that the install manifest replced some files outside /usr/local | 14:34 |
luc4 | Hello! Anyone using kde connect with Android? On my system I get an immediate system freeze. | 14:34 |
kiroma | I am and it works fine for me | 14:35 |
luc4 | kiroma: what kernel are you using? | 14:35 |
kiroma | Does it hang when connecting or when you perform a particular action? | 14:35 |
kiroma | 4.15 | 14:35 |
luc4 | ah ah I'm using 4.13 | 14:36 |
luc4 | maybe that is the reason | 14:36 |
luc4 | It freezes almost immediately when I start browsing files. | 14:36 |
kiroma | I don't think so, I've been using KDE Connect since 17.10, worked fine all the time | 14:36 |
luc4 | oh... then no idea, but it seems somehow related to the kernel, I see kworker immedaitely reaching high cpu usage and then the system dies | 14:38 |
luc4 | I would like to test 18.04 but I read it won't be available for some days | 14:39 |
kiroma | Well I'm out of ideas, so I'm going to reinstall the system | 14:47 |
kiroma | That was dumb | 14:47 |
GampaGamer | Is there a problem all of a sudden accessing a network drive in Kubuntu? I thought it used to work, ubuntu does. | 15:10 |
GampaGamer | I've installed Samba... I'm just a casual user, not a programmer. | 15:11 |
BluesKaj | GampaGamer, network attached drive on your router for example? | 15:13 |
=== kubuntu is now known as Guest57856 | ||
GampaGamer | yes its attached to my router | 15:17 |
GampaGamer | do i need to restart after installing samba? | 15:18 |
BluesKaj | not that I recall | 15:22 |
IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> @GampaGamer, To run Samba after install, run these commands: | 15:22 |
IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> sudo systemctl unmask smbd | 15:22 |
IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> sudo systemctl enable smbd | 15:23 |
IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> sudo systemctl restart smbd | 15:23 |
IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> To view router shared drives update /etc/samba/smb.conf as follows: | 15:23 |
BluesKaj | have you tried the add network folder option in dolphin network | 15:24 |
IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> In the [global] section, add: | 15:24 |
IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> client NTLMv2 auth = no | 15:24 |
IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> client use spnego = no | 15:24 |
GampaGamer | ok, one sec | 15:25 |
BluesKaj | stuff to do, BBL | 15:26 |
GampaGamer | ok done | 15:27 |
IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> ensure to restart samba after updating smb.conf... (sudo systemctl restart smbd) | 15:27 |
GampaGamer | hmmm | 15:28 |
GampaGamer | i did, still nothing | 15:28 |
GampaGamer | nothing in dolphin under samba shares | 15:28 |
GampaGamer | i dont get it | 15:28 |
GampaGamer | uh oh, something more is wrong, windows machines aint seeing it either. | 15:30 |
IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> Dolphin is still "finiky" when it comes to samba shares. Network shares do not always show up and sometime require direct addressing, i.e. smb://<hostname>/path | 15:30 |
IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> in addition, copying sets files sometimes fails and attempts to reconnect fail. I have not tried samba yet on 18.04. Let attempt real quick to see if anything has improved. | 15:32 |
GampaGamer | ok, drive still works, i can access with my firesticks. windows has a problem now with network shares so that doesnt surprise me. | 15:33 |
GampaGamer | but most linux distros have no problem so ill try the direct approach. | 15:33 |
meena | extremely confused about what's going on when i press AltGr (the thing i set as Compose key) - it opens Google in my browser. | 15:33 |
GampaGamer | how do i find the hostname and path? | 15:34 |
GampaGamer | brainfart | 15:34 |
IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> If its your router, usually substitute the name router IP for hostname. | 15:35 |
flask- | Hi all. I'm a new KDE user, running kubuntu 18.04. I have a question about grouping tasks in the Task Manager. I have a number of Atom windows open. If I go into Task Manager Settings and I set Grouping to be "By Program Name" but I leave "Open groups in popups" unchecked, the Atom items do not group but I would expect that they should. They only group together if I check "Open groups in popups". | 15:35 |
GampaGamer | AHHHH HAAAAA!!!! got it | 15:39 |
GampaGamer | thank you! | 15:39 |
IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> Really? awesome!!! | 15:39 |
GampaGamer | how can i add a link to that somehow? | 15:40 |
GampaGamer | manually add the network share? | 15:40 |
IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> Yes, manuall add network share should work. | 15:41 |
GampaGamer | got it, right click and add to places should work | 15:41 |
GampaGamer | yep that did it | 15:41 |
IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> nice! | 15:42 |
GampaGamer | thanks for helping DarinMiller | 15:44 |
IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> Very welcome. | 15:45 |
meena | i'm very, very confused. There's nothing in the (global) shortcuts that even uses AltGr. | 15:51 |

phoenix_firebrd | in kde 4.x i was using the keyboard widget, then after the widget was depreciated, I started using the app iok. now its gone from the repositories after updating to 18.04. Is there any other replacement? | 21:45 |
BionicMac | phoenix_firebrd: checkout this list: apt-cache search virtual keyboard | 21:47 |
BionicMac | phoenix_firebrd: Looks like several packages may fit your needs: 'matchbox-keyboard' or 'qtvirtualkeyboard-plugin' .. 'qml-module-qtquick-virtualkeyboard' | 21:51 |
phoenix_firebrd | BionicMac: just now tried the matchbox-keyboard. the window size is not persistent. uninstalling it | 21:53 |

phoenix_firebrd | BionicMac: qtvirtualkeyboard-plugin' .. 'qml-module-qtquick-virtualkeyboard' are these apps or qt plugins? | 21:53 |

phoenix_firebrd | BionicMac: it was suppose to popup when a text field is in focus | 22:06 |
BionicMac | phoenix_firebrd: I'm looking and I I don't think the acessibility keyboard made it into the release by default... Unless I am missing something obvious. | 22:10 |
