| somekool | Thank you for pushing 5.12.6 to backports | 05:20 |
| lordievader | Good morning | 06:05 |
| acheronuk | somekool: you're welcome | 06:07 |
| newrg | Hello,I recently installed Kubuntu 18.04 and boot takes up about a minute and shows some errors.I did some search and found this https://paste.debian.net/1031636/ | 08:14 |
| newrg | Please help. | 08:14 |
| diogenes_ | newrg, run: systemd-analyze blame | 08:15 |
| diogenes_ | it will show you the services that take up the most time to load | 08:16 |
| newrg | I ran it and the results are in the pastebin link I gave. | 08:16 |
| newrg | dev-sda1 takes up about 20 sec,so is my hard disk corrupted? | 08:16 |
| newrg | 20.250s dev-sda1.device 16.045s apparmor.service 11.194s systemd-tmpfiles-setup.service | 08:17 |
| diogenes_ | and what os did you have before? | 08:18 |
| newrg | I used Linux Mint 18.3 before and it also took about a minute to load. | 08:19 |
| diogenes_ | you got an SSD or HDD? | 08:19 |
| newrg | HDD | 08:19 |
| diogenes_ | then about a minute is nothing bad | 08:20 |
| diogenes_ | if you had an SSD, you'd boot in maximum 10 seconds | 08:20 |
| newrg | during the boot it throws errors like the one's I listed in the paste link,is this some hardware issue? | 08:23 |
| diogenes_ | newrg, if everything works as it should then those errors are safe to ignore. | 08:26 |
| newrg | alright,thanks | 08:29 |
| newrg | one more thing,I have Kubuntu installed on Legacy BIOS,secure boot : off ; when I tried to move to UEFI BIOS- I was unable to do so.On running diagnostic,it shows Hard Disk self-test unsucessful,terminated. | 08:32 |

| Mike_Pooh | Hi All | 09:58 |
| R13ose | How do I disable trackpad sounds on Linux from going into my mic? I don't want others to hear the noise | 11:05 |
| lordievader | Get an external microphone. | 11:07 |
| R13ose | Is that the only way? | 11:12 |
| lordievader | Well, I suppose your mic is built in and close to the trackpad. Correct? | 11:17 |
| R13ose | Correct | 11:19 |
| hateball | R13ose: I suppose you could enable tap-to-click rather than actual pressing down | 11:20 |
| R13ose | hateball: how? | 11:21 |
| hateball | R13ose: in the touchpad settings | 11:21 |
| hateball | I am not sure if it is possible on Wayland, if you are running that | 11:22 |
| R13ose | I am on x11 but I see no tap-to-click | 11:24 |
| hateball | R13ose: typically it is the default | 11:31 |
| hateball | meaning if you tap with one finger it is left click, tap with two and it is rightclick | 11:31 |
| hateball | no need to press down on the toucpad | 11:31 |
| BluesKaj | Howdy folks | 11:31 |
| hateball | but that also depends on the touchpad hardware | 11:31 |
| R13ose | Everything is gray in taps except the mouse click emulation box. | 11:36 |
| joeman1 | . | 11:42 |
| hateball | R13ose: yeah, it's called mouse click emulation | 11:46 |
| hateball | R13ose: maybe it looks different on 18.04, I am on 16.04 still | 11:46 |
| R13ose | Yes but why everything else in that setting not working? | 11:47 |
| newrg | hello,I am using Kubuntu 18.04 and tap to select is not working for my mousepad,is this standard behavior? | 12:02 |
| hateball | newrg: if you are using wayland I think it is | 12:16 |
| hateball | https://wayland.freedesktop.org/libinput/doc/latest/tapping.html | 12:17 |
| newrg | how to tell I'm using wayland? I wrote this in Terminal echo $DESKTOP_SESSION and it returned plasma | 12:19 |
| BluesKaj | !wayland | newrg | 12:23 |
| ubottu | newrg: Wayland is a display server protocol that can be used instead of X. Ubuntu 17.10 uses Wayland by default on systems that support it. For more info, see https://wayland.freedesktop.org/ | 12:23 |
| BluesKaj | newrg, wayland is not installed by default on kubuntu | 12:24 |
| diogenes_ | BluesKaj, and which is in beta for about 10 years :) | 12:24 |
| BluesKaj | diogenes_,heh, yeah, and not in the running for those who use nvidia gpus | 12:24 |
| diogenes_ | exactly :) | 12:25 |
| newrg | BluesKaj, I did not install wayland or something else on Kubuntu then why is tap disabled? | 12:25 |
| BluesKaj | tap? | 12:26 |
| BluesKaj | oh your mousepad | 12:27 |
| newrg | I am unable to tap to select on my mousepad so hateball suggested that it might be due to wayland | 12:28 |
| BluesKaj | well, wayland is installed only if you choose to so after the kubuntu install, so it wouldn't be wayland unless you forgot thast you installed it | 12:29 |
| BluesKaj | to do so rather | 12:29 |
| newrg | I installed Kubuntu 18.04 today only.I did install third-party software as suggested in the installation itself and the updates which came after installation. | 12:30 |
| BluesKaj | then take alook at your login page and check your options to see if wayland is available, but I doubt that it's there | 12:32 |
| diogenes_ | newrg, run in terminal: apt list --installed | grep synaptic | 12:33 |
| diogenes_ | paste here what you get but ONLY if there's less than 3 lines | 12:33 |
| newrg | WARNING: apt does not have a stable CLI interface. Use with caution in scripts.xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/bionic,now 1.9.0-1ubuntu1 amd64 [installed] | 12:34 |
| newrg | I got this diogenes_ | 12:34 |
| newrg | BluesKaj, wayland is not available | 12:35 |
| diogenes_ | newrg, try: sudo apt remove xserver-xorg-input-synaptics | 12:35 |
| BluesKaj | synaptics must be installed | 12:35 |
| diogenes_ | on some machines it works better with libinput on others with synaptic | 12:36 |
| newrg | diogenes_, I did it.Next? | 12:36 |
| diogenes_ | power off the machine and then start it over again | 12:36 |
| newrg | alright | 12:37 |
| BluesKaj | synaptic is a package manager, and Synaptics is an input driver found in xserver-xorg-input-synaptics, an unfortunate choice of names there | 12:37 |
| newrg | diogenes_, I did it.Please tell what to do next? | 12:40 |
| diogenes_ | newrg, now test if the mousepad works as it supposed to | 12:41 |
| newrg | diogenes_, It doesn't. | 12:41 |
| diogenes_ | then most likely the driver doesn't support all the features for your device | 12:41 |
| newrg | I am using Dell Inspiron 15 3567.Could it be that my mousepad is faulty?but all the other functionality is working. | 12:44 |
| diogenes_ | newrg, how old is your dell? | 12:45 |
| newrg | around 6 months,it's still under warranty | 12:45 |
| diogenes_ | yeah, then most likely you need to wait for 18.10 that will bring support for the most recent hardware | 12:46 |
| BluesKaj | newrg, try reinstalling synaptics after updating and upgrading with apt | 12:47 |
| diogenes_ | good idea ^^^ | 12:48 |
| newrg | diogenes_, but I think this model launched in 2016/17 | 12:48 |
| diogenes_ | newrg, try: sudo apt install xserver-xorg-input-synaptics | 12:49 |
| newrg | BluesKaj, alright | 12:49 |
| diogenes_ | then reboot | 12:49 |
| BluesKaj | newrg, yeah your mousepad should work, the HW isn't really new | 12:49 |
| diogenes_ | yes if it's 2016 then it should work, also i'd suggest to try a live session of 16.04 kubuntu | 12:50 |
| diogenes_ | might work better | 12:50 |
| newrg | diogenes_, installed,I hope reboot will make it work or I will try 16.04 | 12:51 |
| diogenes_ | yep try | 12:51 |
| BluesKaj | io what was that other touchpad app you mentioned? | 12:52 |
| BluesKaj | diogenes_,^ | 12:52 |
| diogenes_ | BluesKaj, touchpad app? | 12:52 |
| BluesKaj | found it libinput | 12:53 |
| diogenes_ | oh, it's a new driver meant to replace the old xorg synaptics one | 12:53 |
| BluesKaj | diogenes_, well that's what my 4 yr old lenovo uses by default, just checked | 12:54 |
| newrg | diogenes_, BluesKaj It worked!Thank you so much. | 12:54 |
| BluesKaj | on 18.04 | 12:54 |
| BluesKaj | newrg, cool :-) | 12:55 |
| diogenes_ | nice nice | 12:55 |
| newrg | :) | 12:56 |
| BluesKaj | my touchpad skills suck , always use a wireless mouse :-) | 12:59 |
| diogenes_ | hehe, at home i use mouse, at work touchpad because it's faster and more productive :) | 13:00 |
| newrg | BluesKaj, yes,I use a wireless mouse that's why it took me so long to realize something is wrong with my touchpad(I installed the distro few hours ago) | 13:00 |
| * BluesKaj nods | 13:00 | |
| BluesKaj | i used desktops at work before retirement, laptops were in their infancy back then and very expensive | 13:02 |
| diogenes_ | oh i guess it was like 1997 - 2000 | 13:03 |
| newrg | BluesKaj, must be hard troubleshooting at that time? | 13:03 |
| BluesKaj | we started using windows pcs in the early 90sthe first laptop I recall seeing was around '97 as you say diogenes_ | 13:05 |
| diogenes_ | yes they were damn expensive | 13:05 |
| BluesKaj | The IT/admin guys in the computer dept looked after troubleshooting , we had no IT guy in our lab at that time | 13:06 |
| newrg | BluesKaj, then how did you manage? | 13:07 |
| BluesKaj | we'd call the computer dept :-) | 13:08 |
| newrg | oh good ;D | 13:09 |
| BluesKaj | I used application designed computers which were mostly dos with a lab instrument application running on top | 13:10 |
| BluesKaj | companies likw Perkin-Elmer and Varian wrote thier apps or hired someoen to do so, I guess | 13:12 |
| BluesKaj | wasn't much interested in computers back then, they were just a tool | 13:12 |
| newrg | BluesKaj, only DOS,must be tough | 13:14 |
| BluesKaj | the computers ran the instruments quite well, since they were application dedicated, most of the problems weren't software related, they were hardware related | 13:17 |
| BluesKaj | which we learned how to fix, most of the time | 13:18 |
| newrg | BluesKaj, oh now I get it since they were application dedicated,the scope of the machine was limited unlike modern computers which can do so many things | 13:19 |
| BluesKaj | yup, exactly | 13:19 |

| eeos | I do not seem to be able to activate a sound equalizer on kubuntu 18.04 64 bit .... any clue of what I should do? | 14:49 |
| eeos | I am of course using pulseudio, and can use either gstreamer or vlc as backend. | 14:50 |
| eeos | The laptop is Thinkpad Yoga X1 Carbon | 14:50 |
| hateball | eeos: do you mean systemwide? | 14:51 |
| diogenes_ | eeos, u using pulse-equalizer | 14:51 |
| eeos | hateball: yes, systemwide | 15:09 |
| eeos | hateball: if I test using front left and front right in my stereo headset, I hear both the front left (right) in both ears | 15:10 |
| hateball | eeos: I am not on my 18.04 machine atm, I cant recall if pulseaudio-equalizer is nicely packaged or not | 15:10 |
| hateball | or if you perhaps need to load that module manually | 15:11 |
| eeos | hateball: deinitively not .... you cannot even launch it! | 15:11 |
| hateball | eeos: it's in universe it seems | 15:12 |
| hateball | anyhow, I sadly do not have access to a 18.04 atm, and I must leave. hopefully someone else can help you | 15:12 |

| _rschalch | Ill try to do a search, let me check what I find out | 23:34 |
| fscale | _rschalch: Thanks. Me tried to search to but couldn't find an answer. | 23:39 |
| fscale | *search too | 23:39 |
| _rschalch | ok I found it ... type muon in start menu | 23:48 |
| _rschalch | then go to settings -> configure software sources, it will ask you your admin password | 23:49 |
| _rschalch | go to the updates tab and deselect check for updates, thats it | 23:49 |
| _rschalch | I didnt know this package manager | 23:50 |
| fscale | _rschalch: I found that via one google search result but there is no Configure software sources within my system settings. If you're using Kubuntu 18.04, can you share a screenshot if you can find that option? | 23:56 |
| _rschalch | its not from system settings ... type muon on start menu and start muon package manager | 23:57 |
| fscale | _rschalch: This is muon package manager, where is it's settings button? https://i.imgur.com/6IJ7I79.png | 23:59 |
