fbbnccGroup permissions do not work in file manager and terminal emulators. Running Kubuntu 16.04. How do I fix that?14:04
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> Hi guys! How do I find out the exact version number of my graphics drivers in Kubuntu 18.04? The "driver"-manager only shows:16:41

IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> @Phil Linux, apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-video-nouveau … apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-video-nvidia-390 … will show them17:03
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> Thanks so much, Rik!17:03
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> But I just found a non-CLI way (I always search for those because that's what I can use with other users I switch to linux).17:04
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> Super-Key, then "nvidia"17:04
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> @Phil Linux, OpenGL info in kinfocenter should also give current running driver version17:04

IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> @Phil Linux, yeah, but the pic you showed said you had nouveau selected17:05
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> I did.17:06
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> like most things, there are multiple ways :)17:06
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> I have only a non-IT person's grasp of the system. So I figured, I should switch back to nouveau, then activate the Graphics-Drivers-ppa and then switch back to proprietary. But that's not really necessary, correct?17:07
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> @acheronuk, I agree and I like the CLI more and more. But on my quest to switch people to Linux, I found that CLI ist just unacceptable to most people. So I always look to also learn about the GUI way.17:09
TJ-Any K3B pros around? Got a weird issue. Ardour-written CUE sheet and CD-redbook WAV file, when K£B writes the CD-audio disk the result has tracks etc. but everything is silent - WAV file is confirmed to have audio in it. Any ideas?17:11
alterjsivesorry lost connection it was fakeraid17:16

IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> @acheronuk, After activating this ppa: http://ppa.launchpad.net/graphics-drivers/ppa/ubuntu17:28
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> (Photo, 1067x520) https://irc-attachments.kde.org/0Dw40DpA/file_9691.jpg17:28
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> Yeah, that PPA is semi-official, so should be ok17:29
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> @acheronuk, Any idea how I can get to the higher versions which are apparently supplied by the ppa?17:29
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> @acheronuk, https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa17:29
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> @acheronuk, I just do not see how to change...17:29
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> the 396 driver?17:30
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> @acheronuk, exactly!17:31
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> @acheronuk, At least that's what "the linux Gamer" recommends.17:31
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> @acheronuk, 😂17:32
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> install 'nvidia-driver-396' if that driver supports your card17:33
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> you mean like "apt install nvidia-driver-369"?17:36
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> @acheronuk, It's a GTX1070 so I should be fine.17:37
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> At least it's not in the deprecated "Femi" line.17:37
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> https://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/396.54/README/supportedchips.html17:39
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> @Phil Linux, yep17:41
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> @acheronuk, Well, thank you very much! I shall finally be able to play Skyrim again!17:41
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> PCI Device ID: in nvidia settings should match one of those in the list17:43
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> if the driver supports it.17:44
IoloIf you're thinking of playing Skyrim with Proton, I wouldn't count my chickens just yet. At least when I try it, some audio tracks don't play, most notably character voices.17:45
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> @Iolo, Oh no!! Don't desproy my hopes!!18:07
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> @acheronuk, I am looking...18:07
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> @acheronuk, According to your link, it should be "1B81". However I cannot find that string in the infocenter...18:11

IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> Forget it. I apparently am too tired to read.18:12
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> they don't make it as obvious as it could be!18:13
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> @acheronuk, Thanks for downplaying my inability to read such a short text! 😉18:25
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> @acheronuk, Great success18:29
