| IrcsomeBot1 | <darkgod> Greetings from Colombia. Someone knows how to disable unicode/emoji fast input on the OS? Because if I type ctrl+shift+u/ctrl+shift+e on some app on the system the input turns out into a special insertion mode | 03:27 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <nggraham> It's not an OS thing, it's just something that your web browser is doing, I think | 03:33 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <darkgod> I happens in others app too, i.e vscode | 03:34 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <darkgod> And it conflicts with some app's shortcuts | 03:36 |
| madLyfe | valorie: you here? | 03:38 |
| valorie | madLyfe: here | 04:38 |
| madLyfe | i actually just fixed an issue i was having. turned out to be win10 fast boot being enabled and not allowing me to mount drives as RW. well they werent being auto mounted that way. i could manually remount them with RW but then they would be reset after a reboot. | 04:39 |
| madLyfe | but i do have a question about mounting and auto mounting. i have these options enabled with no overrides: https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/kvOTQdtn/image.png | 04:41 |
| madLyfe | i also have a samba network share that i have mounted via fstab entry. i noticed that the only entries in fstab are the samba share i added and the nixOS drive partitions. | 04:42 |
| madLyfe | nixOS drive is /sda(sda1/sda2). my two other internal drives /sdb(win10) and /sdc(storage drive) are not present in fstab at all. is that correct? | 04:44 |
| valorie | oh gosh, I know pretty much nothing about this | 04:45 |
| madLyfe | oh | 04:45 |
| valorie | the settings look good | 04:45 |
| valorie | but fast boot etc. -- total blank here | 04:46 |
| madLyfe | well thats not an issue anymore. im more curious about fstab and what should actually be in there. | 04:46 |
| lordievader | Good moring | 05:58 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Phil Linux> Hey guys! When I tried to do the suggested updates, discover gave me this error: What does it mean? | 08:20 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Phil Linux> (Photo, 1280x154) https://irc-attachments.kde.org/Gv0OBF24/file_9454.jpg | 08:20 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Phil Linux> It is not the first time either. | 08:21 |
| lordievader | Dpkg the actual package installer was interrupted (killed). You should run the command it gives you in a shell (with sudo). | 08:25 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Phil Linux> Yep. I know that following the instructions works. But I wanted to know why that happens and what I can do from having it happen over and over again. | 08:39 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Phil Linux> Thanks for your answer, lordievader! | 08:39 |
| lordievader | If you don't want it to happen again don't kill discover ;) | 08:40 |
| lordievader | Or apt, or dpkg. | 08:40 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Phil Linux> Nono, I did not kill anything on purpose. | 08:42 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Phil Linux> I literally started up my computer, logged in, went away, saw the update notification and clicked on it. | 08:42 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Phil Linux> I did not interrupt anything. | 08:42 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Phil Linux> That's why I am not clear on the reason for the error. | 08:43 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <acheronuk> @Phil Linux, you probably hit this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/packagekit/+bug/1790613 | 09:21 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1790613 in packagekit (Ubuntu) "Regression: packagekit crashes updating itself to 1.1.9-1ubuntu2.18.04.1" [Undecided,Incomplete] | 09:21 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <acheronuk> also happens on Neon bionic | 09:21 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Phil Linux> @ubottu, Ah! Wonderful! Thank you! | 09:22 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <acheronuk> once packagekit is upgraded properly, the bug should go away (unless there is another packagekit update before they fix it) | 09:23 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Phil Linux> Well, that's a pickle. My father wants to switch to linux in the near future. In order to support him easily I wanted to put him on Kubuntu 18.04 as well, but not being able to update reliably in the GUI seems like kind if a deal breaker... | 09:24 |
| lordievader | Hahaha, lovely bug. | 09:24 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Phil Linux> @acheronuk, I am not at the Computer anymore, but I seem to remember that there was a update for packagekit in the list... | 09:26 |
| acheronuk | lordievader: it does deserve a large portion of facepalm! | 09:27 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Phil Linux> But hold on, if I understand it correctly, this bug is relevant for ALL of Ubuntu, not only Kubuntu, correct? | 09:27 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <acheronuk> @Phil Linux, I would imagine so. it was released just the other day. anyone trying to update via discover, which uses packagekit, is likely to hit it | 09:28 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <acheronuk> *discover/updater | 09:28 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Phil Linux> @acheronuk, I actually tried updating via CLI after that and hit the same bug! | 09:29 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Phil Linux> Konsole | 09:29 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <acheronuk> @Phil Linux, if you try to update with apt or pkon afterward, you will see the same error. as the original crash leaves the packagekit packages not fully installed. | 09:30 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Phil Linux> @acheronuk, I see. | 09:32 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <acheronuk> you need to run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to fix that before any method of updating or installing packages will work again. | 09:32 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Phil Linux> Yep. It's not a problem for me (did it last tine that happened), but surely a dealbreaker for anyone of the "parents generation" whom we've told that Ubuntu just works. | 09:34 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <acheronuk> Yeah, I'm quite annoyed that packagekit update went through without anyone testing to make sure packagekit itself upgraded things ok. It's a very stupid bug to get. | 09:36 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Phil Linux> @acheronuk, I do not get why this command cannot be executed automatically (after sudo password input of course). Just a dialog box for the non technical people. Can anyone enlighten me? | 09:39 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <acheronuk> Someone would have to code that into packagekit (or discover). Cleary no-one has considered this will happen enough to require that. | 09:41 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Phil Linux> Hm... Regular feedback from non technical end users is clearly needed more regularly then! Ubuntu has made linux sooooo much more usable for the masses. But if things like that are not taken seriously, mass market adoption is just not going to happen. To the detriment of users and Canonical. | 10:01 |
| BluesKaj | HI folks | 10:11 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Christoshaju> Please tell that … Is which is the most speedy high performance version | 12:11 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Christoshaju> @Christoshaju, Any Dev | 12:16 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Christoshaju> Please respond | 12:16 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Phil Linux> https://andrewcrouthamel.wordpress.com/2018/09/06/my-linux-desktop-manifesto/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter | 12:42 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <nggraham> @Christoshaju KDE Plasma is the most speedy high performance version :) | 13:01 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Christoshaju> @nggraham, I mean 14 or 16 or 18 | 13:04 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <nggraham> can you rephrase the question? | 13:04 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Christoshaju> which is the most speedy ,high performance release | 13:06 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Christoshaju> Is this okkk | 13:06 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <nggraham> probably 18 | 13:06 |
| BluesKaj | depends also on your HW, cpu, gpu, memory etc | 13:06 |
| lordievader | And what you want furthermore. More stability over newer software. | 13:35 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Christoshaju> @BluesKaj, I was having 3gb ram … I3 | 14:01 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Christoshaju> @lordievader, I want to compile roms fastsr and it wont anywag make me feel hangy | 14:02 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Christoshaju> @nggraham, But i feel 18 very hangy | 14:02 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <nggraham> please quantify that with bug reports :) | 14:06 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Christoshaju> @nggraham, I dint think its a bug … Maybe my systems resources prob … But which is good compare to 16 and 18 | 14:09 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <nggraham> you're asking questions that are not really answerable. Just use the one you find works best for you. But in any event, I would strongly recommend 18.04, since it includes a stable and mature version of KDE Plasma. Kubuntu 16.04 did not. | 14:13 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Christoshaju> @nggraham, Ohhk | 14:17 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Christoshaju> Thanks | 14:17 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <nggraham> no problem | 14:24 |
| nejni-marji | Is there a way to make it such that when a new window is opened on a non-current desktop, that it won't show up in the taskbar? | 17:01 |
