[03:40] <rcmaehl> Help! Kubuntu is text wrapping words on shortcuts that shouldn't be word wrapped

[05:09] <pere_> holaç
[06:13] <lordievader> Good morning
[10:54] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[11:09] <EvilRoey>  hi, anyone here using Ubuntu?   running "modprobe nvidia" gives me: modprobe: FATAL: Module nvidia not found in directory /lib/modules/4.15.0-23-generic.  Before this, I ran the command apt-get install nvidia-390.  What gives?  I'm trying to figure out why the nvidia-390 package did not lay down an nvidia.ko under /lib/modules for this current kernel like it did for other kernels
[11:10] <EvilRoey> BluesKaj: oh hi
[11:12] <hateball> EvilRoey: maybe it failed to build the modules for some reason
[11:12] <BluesKaj> Hi EvilRoey: make sure you don't have it blacklisted in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
[11:12] <hateball> the nvidia modules that is
[11:14] <hateball> EvilRoey: is this a regular desktop install or what are you working with? typically dkms and all needed bits are installed so nvidia modules should be built for any installed kernel you have
[11:14] <EvilRoey> desktop install
[11:14] <BluesKaj> EvilRoey:  hope you didn't use the proprietary 390 driver from Nvidia's website, because it isn't supported after tkernel upgrades
[11:14] <EvilRoey> # 20140702 Roey Katz - Blacklist Nouveau; was causing trouble at boot vs. VESA VGA
[11:14] <EvilRoey> blacklist nouveau
[11:15] <EvilRoey> BluesKaj: OH.
[11:15] <EvilRoey> oh, I see.
[11:15] <EvilRoey> I did install nvidia-390
[11:15] <EvilRoey> via apt-get.
[11:15] <EvilRoey> BluesKaj: could this be why?
[11:15] <BluesKaj> no need to blacklist nouveau manually
[11:16] <BluesKaj> nivdia-390 should install properly with apt since it's the repos driver
[11:18] <BluesKaj> and that the 390 is the correct driver for yor gpu
[11:18] <hateball> EvilRoey: if you run "uname -r" what does that show?
[11:20] <hateball> EvilRoey: anyhow you could do "sudo apt-get --reinstall nvidia-390" and it should re-run all the scripts and dkms build the modules again, if it for some reason failed the last time
[11:21] <hateball> and if it was indeed dkms failing, it should have a log in something like /var/lib/dkms/nvidia
[11:22] <BluesKaj> EvilRoey:  are yousure that the 390 is the correct driver ?
[11:25] <EvilRoey> I saw that nvidia-390 was available
[11:25] <EvilRoey> and I knew that it's the latest and greatest
[11:25] <BluesKaj> EvilRoey:  the easiest method is to use the driver manager in system settings, it'll recommend the correct driver for your gpu and install it if you choose it.
[11:25] <hateball> well the module should still build, it shouldnt be missing. if it's not the right driver for the card then it would at most fail to load :D
[11:26] <EvilRoey> aye
[11:26] <EvilRoey> I mean this did fial to load, as I mentioned above
[11:26] <EvilRoey> hateball: one moment, I just saw your messages.
[11:26] <EvilRoey> I've done --reinstall nvidia-390 a bunch of times, yet I don't see it producing an nvidia.ko at all
[11:26] <EvilRoey> $ uname -a
[11:26] <EvilRoey> Linux gear 4.15.0-23-generic #25-Ubuntu SMP Wed May 23 18:02:16 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[11:27] <hateball> personally 390 did not play nice with my system, latest 396 beta from ppa works however. but again, the modules should at the very least be built
[11:27] <hateball> EvilRoey: check if there's any error log in /var/lib/dkms
[11:27] <BluesKaj> like...very simple I said above ..use the driver manager in system settings
[11:28] <EvilRoey> hateball: there's no error log there at all
[11:28] <EvilRoey> BluesKaj: so driver manager in system settings, ok
[11:28] <EvilRoey> when I'm home I will do that
[11:28] <EvilRoey> thank you BluesKaj
[11:30] <BluesKaj> EvilRoey: don't muck about with experimenting with th elatraest and greatest , because it may not be so for your gpu
[11:30] <BluesKaj> err lataest and greatest
[11:30]  * BluesKaj needs more coffee
[11:33] <BluesKaj> heh, I discoverd that the onboard gpu on my new MSI Z370 is better than my old old nvidia pci ...much better video and more detailed on this old Panasonic 43" TV
[11:36] <EvilRoey> haha
[11:36] <EvilRoey> neat
[11:37] <BluesKaj> yup, the nvidia gt520 \was getting long in the tooth I think
[11:45] <hateball> EvilRoey: typically you can use "sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall" and it will pick the proper stuff for your system (it's the same as the gui thing)
[11:46] <EvilRoey> hateball: ah alrih.
[11:47] <EvilRoey> OH another issue:  I was trying to write a CD with k3b this morning and got the following error:  https://askubuntu.com/questions/287308/k3b-cdrecord-has-no-permission
[11:48] <EvilRoey> I checked the permissions on /usr/bin/{cdrecord,cdrdao,etc.} and they're al 755 or looser
[11:52] <rundevilrun007> test
[13:48] <EvilRoey> BluesKaj: btw so I installed the nvidia-384.. I looked under /lib for an nvidia.ko and didn't find one for this kernel
[13:48] <EvilRoey> still
[13:48] <EvilRoey> !!!
[13:48] <EvilRoey> so what's the issue?
[13:48] <EvilRoey> (i.e. I am not sure that installing nvidia-384 placed the module there either)
[13:52] <genii> If installed will be in /lib/modules/kernel-version-here/updates/dkms/nvidia_384.ko   or /var/lib/dkms/nvidia-384/sub-version-specific-directory-name-here/kernel-version-here/module/nvidia_384.ko
[14:20] <hegemon8> hey everyone...
[14:20] <hegemon8> where is the right place to ask about electron and Plasma?....
[14:56] <vespertatia> hegemon8: probably here too but you might have to wait
