[00:46] <Guest92492> When installing the new Kubuntu it seems that MySQL was already installed. How do I work out what the root password is ?

[01:52] <Guest39472> check
[02:23] <tnss> hey
[02:23] <tnss> I would like to try LightDM out
[02:25] <tnss> it used to be Ubuntu's default Display Manager until 17.10
 @Tony.U. Johnny, LightDM is a Display Manager
 It's the login administrator
[02:25] <tnss> and is currently the default DM for Lubuntu, Ubuntu MATE, Ubuntu Budgie, Ubuntu Studio, and Xubuntu
 Kubuntu uses SSDM by default
[02:26] <tnss> It used to use LightDM until 12.04
 @Tony.U. Johnny, So so, Kubuntu uses the Plasma Desktop + is built on the Qt framework
 It uses Ubuntu repositories
 Ubuntu on the other hand uses Gnome desktop atop the Gtk framework
[02:27] <tnss> *G*NOME *D*isplay *M*anager
[02:28] <tnss> use Discover
[02:29] <Unit193> I'm fairly certain there's not activly maintained Qt lightdm greeter.
[02:32] <tnss> Try modding the Antergos one
[02:54] <krytarik> You'll find "Discover" in the launcher, it's for installing apps.
 @Tony.U. Johnny, What apps do you need for?
 Say, Firefox for browsing … Krita for editing pictures … Darktable for raw editing
 Vlc Media player
 Etc
 So on
 Umm
 @Tony.U. Johnny, Well, I use Firefox … Atom … Emacs … OpenBroadcaster … Geary email client … Thunderbird email client (as well)
 LibreOffice
 yED editor
 🤷‍♂
 Much of what I use is for college

[03:05] <Dragnslcr> Konversation is a good IRC client
 You have here on Telegram
 Just tag me (@carguello) and I'll probably reply 🤔
[03:06] <Dragnslcr> Dolphin is possibly the best file manager I've used. I really like Kate for a text editor.
 @Dragnslcr, Dolphin is for sure
 It's years ahead of Nautilus, Nemo, pcmanfm, etc
[03:09] <Dragnslcr> If you have an Android phone, KDE Connect is also really helpful
 @Dragnslcr, True
[03:33] <qbsd> what is the fix for the broken virtualbox-ext-pack package?
 @qbsd, There is none right now
 @qbsd, The bug is reported on launchpad
[03:35] <qbsd> so wait for it then
[03:35] <Unit193> https://launchpadlibrarian.net/368913270/virtualbox-ext-pack_5.2.10-3_5.2.10-4.diff.gz
 @qbsd, You have to download the ext pack and add it as an extension
[03:36] <qbsd> Ok - I can do that I think I've done it before
 @qbsd, http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/es/server-storage/virtualbox/downloads/index.html#extpack
 @qbsd, Yeah, download from the Oracle link, then on settings add it as add on
[03:37] <qbsd> did the 17.10 to 17.04 upgrade today and cleaning up. kvirc was b0rked but I added the 5 alpha from launchpad  and that took care of that
[03:38] <qbsd> linux-tools still has a problem but at least the cpu isn't stuck down at 1.6Ghz like it was before
[03:38] <qbsd> err meant to 18.04...
[03:38] <qbsd> thanks
 @qbsd, xD
[03:43] <qbsd> done, working  - thanks again
 @qbsd, Welcome
[03:46] <qbsd> and I am very grateful to whoever resurrected knode, I use it to follow many mail lists via gmane so i can keep that separated from 15 email accounts. been doing it so many years it is a workflow I don't want to do without
[04:22] <josh_> Anyone know how I can find out what the root mysql password is so I can create a new account for all my websites?
[04:31] <valorie> !mysql
[04:31] <valorie> boo, ubottu doesn't know
[04:31] <valorie> in general I've not used a passw with it
[04:32] <valorie> for instance when building amarok
[04:32] <valorie> just a return
[04:32] <valorie> josh_: there is no root passwords in ubuntu
[04:32] <valorie> !root
[04:33] <josh_> valorie then how can I get into mysql and create a new user ;) - With old versions of ubuntu/kubuntu you would install mysql at the start but its already installed.
[04:34] <valorie> good question -- I'm thinking unless some mysql expert speaks up here soon, you will have better luck in #ubuntu
[04:34] <qbsd> iirc if there is no password mysql -u root -p  should prompt you for one, then enter it again andf remember it
[04:34] <valorie> much larger channel
[04:37] <josh_> Ok I think I solved it. Even though mysql was installed I had to also install the standard mysql-server package. Then you can log into using sudo (it takes root computer permissions into mysql)
[05:35] <valorie> good to know, josh_
[05:36] <valorie> I'll try to remember that for the next person who asks

[06:06] <lordievader> Good morning*
[06:24] <Iuz6Jakk> morning
 Good morning! Maybe a silly question but, which are the differences between Kubuntu and KDE Neon? They look like pretty similar...
[06:30] <hateball> KDE Neon is rolling release of the KDE/Plasma stuff, based on Ubuntu LTS, while Kubuntu does not change the KDE/Plasma versions between releases
[06:30] <hateball> !neon
[06:54] <acheronuk> hmmm. that factoid is not right #kde-neon is a development channel. not really the place to send people for 'discussion and support' for most people
[06:58] <lordievader> Is there a kde-neon support channel?
[06:58] <lordievader> I suppose  most questions can be answered here, but there may be specifics...
 Sorry for the wrong question
 can this KDE neon on Docker works on kubuntu
 @Stranger_A, Don't apologise. No problem. Neon does have a telegram goup for users though. :) … https://telegram.me/kdeneon
 @acheronuk, Thanks a lot
[08:05] <otomo> hi, finally kdesudo "do-release-upgrade -m desktop -f DistUpgradeViewKDE" worked!!! Now I going to updagred, but I had configured LTS upgrades and didn't work by this way, I should choose Normal Releases (it seems that is more relevant the version you use that the one you want to upgrade)
[08:21] <jernej_> Hello guys and gals, I have a question. I running a minimal kubuntu install 18.04. I installed ktorrent but have problems with opening magnet links in firefox.
[08:21] <jernej_> I get this message: The address wasn't understood Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (magnet) isn't associated with any program.
[08:21] <lordievader> otomo: 18.04.1 ain't released yet, right? That would explain why you cant jump from 16.04 to 18.04 (yet).
[08:22] <diogenes_> jernej_, and if you copy the magnet and open it in ketorrent by /copy/paste?
[08:23] <jernej_> diogenes_: I checked online for solutions and added "network.protocol-handler.expose.magnet" to firefox, now I don't know how to tell firefox to use ktorrent to open the magnet link
[08:26] <jernej_> diogenes_:  I I copy/paste the magnet link o kotrrent it works, but I would still like to configre firefox to open them outomatically
[08:43] <acheronuk> jernej_: set that value to false in about:config
[08:44] <acheronuk> then when you click on a magnet link, it should ask you what to use to open it
[08:46] <acheronuk> like https://i.imgur.com/l47FFKt.png
[08:47] <acheronuk> then in the chooser, select filesystem, and navigate to usr / bin /ktorrent and choose that
[08:52] <jernej_> acheronuk: Thank you very much, that was what I needed! :)
[08:53] <acheronuk> jernej_: you're welcome. :) it's bizarre now that by now Mozilla have not made that easier
[08:56] <jernej_> acheronuk: Yeah, I wonder.. well, it was the first time I had to configure that maually, on few other install ations it worked out of the box. Well, atleast I learned something from this :D
[09:17] <otomo> arg black screen with nvidia, now I did a prime-select intel to could load kde
[09:18] <otomo> the new metapackage nvidia 390 installed
[09:19] <otomo> i think this is the key nomodeset grub_gfxmode=vesa
[10:18] <BluesKaj> Hi folks
[10:19] <gggood> yo
[10:34] <marcpv> hi, please, anyone can help me? I cannot open a .tar file with ark although I have 'tar'
[10:38] <otomo> I didn't solve the blackscreen yet when nvidia is selected in prime-select
[10:39] <BluesKaj> marcpv, right click and choose extract here in the context menu
[10:39] <otomo> anyone succeded starting with nvidia in a laptop with optimus
[10:39] <otomo> ?
[10:44] <lordievader> otomo: My laptop runs nvidia + intel with noveau.
[10:44] <lordievader> (I don't run Kubuntu on there though)
[10:49] <otomo> I have to use the nvidia drivers (not just for gaming, also for work)
[10:49] <otomo> I will try a new thing, restarting, I will back and report
[10:51] <lordievader> With the nvidia drivers my  laptop was unable to resume from suspend. Not saying the nouveau drivers are trouble free, but no major issues like that.
[10:52] <BluesKaj> lordievader, have the same issue here since switching to Bionic, but it doesn't seem to be receiving much attention
[10:53] <lordievader> BluesKaj: With the nvidia or nouveau drivers?
[10:54] <BluesKaj> nvidia
[10:54] <lordievader> You could try running with nouveau.
[10:54] <BluesKaj> didn't work with nouveau either
[10:55] <lordievader> Didn't work entirely?
[10:55] <BluesKaj> could be the BIOS...using a hybrid UEFI/BIOS ..chose the BIOS for simplicity
[10:56] <lordievader> BIOS/UEFI should have nothing to do with this.
[10:56] <BluesKaj> no legacy mode, it 's a true old fashioned BIOS on a MSI Z370 Pro mobo
[10:57] <BluesKaj> really?, then it's just coincidence i guess
[11:00] <lordievader>  BluesKaj What card do you have?
[11:00] <BluesKaj> nvidia GT 520
[11:04] <lordievader> Nouveau lists it as supported (NVC0): https://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/FeatureMatrix/
[11:06] <BluesKaj> maybe now it does , but back in feb suspend on Bionic would just turn the pc off
[11:13] <lordievader> That is odd behaviour. Usually if something fails during the suspend action is just resumes.
[11:25] <BluesKaj> well, let's test it ...brb
[11:40] <acheronuk> lordievader BluesKaj: resume with NVidia has been fine throughout 18.04 for me
[11:44] <kubast2> When kwin --replace suddenlly breaks 99% of distros panels for no reason https://i.imgur.com/TJhY3pc.png
[11:52] <BluesKaj> yup, suspend actually crashed kwin first then it shut down
[11:52] <kubast2> for me suspend causes graphical glitches on icons or text under icons
[11:54] <lordievader> BluesKaj: Do you get the same if you run `sudo systemctl suspend`?
[11:54] <BluesKaj> some are blaming the video driver ..gonna check /var/log/sylog
[11:56] <BluesKaj> not much there
[12:04] <BluesKaj> lordievader, oddly enough, sudo systemctl suspend, seemed to work, but the pc doesn't respond to KB, still had to use the power button
[12:05] <BluesKaj> weird
[12:05] <lordievader> So the kernel is able to suspend sucessfully.
[12:06] <BluesKaj> seems so, wonder about sleep
[12:07] <lordievader> Sleep and suspend are often synonyms.
[12:08] <BluesKaj> hibernate seems to cover both
[12:09] <lordievader> Both what?
[12:13] <BluesKaj> hibernate seemed work for 30 secs then it shut down
[12:17] <lordievader> That is the point of hibernate. Write the ram contents to swap. Turn off. On next boot, load swap content into ram. Continue what it was doing before the hibernate.
[12:20] <lordievader> Sometimes this requires an additional pointer to the kernel to read the contents from swap instead of doing a normal boot.

[14:25] <otomo> uff I didn't manage to fix my nvidia problem in 18.04
[14:28] <otomo> https://pastebin.com/DuZfv57Z my grub configuration right now (already tested with and without nomodeset without success
[14:29] <otomo> https://pastebin.com/26L9sfCE my xorg config
[14:35] <otomo> resumin: kubuntu 18.04 upgraded from 17.10, laptop with nvidia optimus (that always had kubuntu without problems)
[14:37] <otomo> *resuming
[14:49] <otomo> now I am using the intel gpu, nvidia keep on resulting in black screen
[14:50] <otomo> any ideas?

[14:53] <IrcsomeBot1> <Juan Carlos> I am otomo (reconnected with Telegram)
[15:04] <BluesKaj> otomo, check out bumblebee for Optimus systems
[15:07] <otomo> I will never return to bumblebee again (I spent many days on that on the past), its work very bad for many games and need adjustements sometimes for each one
[15:08] <otomo> nvidia prime worked well in last years, but searching for my problem I see that there is a lot of people with my same problem in this release
[15:13] <BluesKaj>  bumblebee has been rewritten in the last 2yrs or so , have you tried that?
[15:16] <otomo> I tried a little more than one year ago, also I need working cuda, as I could check Bumblebee 3.2.1 has been released on 26 April 2013
[15:17] <BluesKaj> no promises that it will work tho :-)
[15:17] <otomo> (that is the version in the repository)
[15:18] <BluesKaj> ok
[15:18] <otomo> anyway thanks for help
[15:22] <BluesKaj> some just stick with nvidia and blacklist the intel, even tho he battery drains alittle faster
[15:23] <otomo> yes when I use prime-select nvidia obviusly its running all the time after login, but now... black screen
[15:25] <BluesKaj> nouveau driver?
[15:26] <otomo> very bad fps, no cuda (for work)....
[15:27] <BluesKaj> try the nvidia proprietary, which nvidia gpu ?
[15:27] <otomo> 765M GTX
[15:27] <otomo> when using the nvidia gpu I get black screen, now I am using the intel one
[15:28] <diogenes_> after upgrade?
[15:28] <otomo> yes
[15:29] <diogenes_> :) probably premature upgrade
[15:29] <otomo> no, I didn't force it, I follow the steps of the official release notes
[15:29] <otomo> and this is a LTS
[15:30] <otomo> I upgrade it today
[15:30] <diogenes_> i mean i'd have waited till 18.04.1 comes out
[15:31] <BluesKaj> otomo, you can try the nomodeset inplace of "quiet splash" in grub
[15:31] <BluesKaj> !nomodeset
[15:32] <otomo> I already tried nomodeset, but after quiet splash, it will change anything if i delete quiet splash?
[15:32] <BluesKaj> yes afaik it will
[15:33] <BluesKaj> it has worked for me with nvidia drivers in the past
[15:34] <otomo> ok I will test right now (but in the nvidia forums the users advise now it should be necessary)
[15:34] <BluesKaj> what should be necessary?
[15:35] <otomo> let me try and I will report the results here
[15:35] <BluesKaj> right
[15:45] <otomo> same results, it stops when try to start SDDM
[15:46] <otomo> today I don't have time to do more tests, have to back to work, I will also post the problem in the nvidia forums
[15:46] <otomo> I will report here if some of this days I solve it
[15:46] <otomo> thanks
[15:46] <BluesKaj> which driver is recommended for the gtx 765m
[15:46] <otomo> the one I am using
[15:47] <otomo> the new metapackage of the 390
[15:47] <BluesKaj> 390?
[15:47] <otomo> yes
[15:47] <BluesKaj> ok
[15:47] <BluesKaj> that's the one I use as well
[15:48] <otomo> don't worry I will tell if I found solution just in case any other user enters here with the same problem
[15:48] <otomo> byee
[15:50] <BluesKaj> did you blacklist the intel i915 or 965 diver in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf ?
[15:50] <BluesKaj> damn
[16:55] <astrodn> When I close my laptop lid the computer doesn't go to sleep, it only logs out. How do I configure my computer to suspend when I close the lid?
[17:17] <aron> astrodn: energy saving settings -> "Button events handling" -> "When laptop lid closed"
[17:18] <aron> -> Suspend
[17:18] <aron> be sure to use the correct tab, (AC, battery, low battery)
[17:29] <astrodn> aron: thanks dude
