[06:28] <lordievader> Good morning
[07:56] <burten> how can i install kubuntu alongside windows by doing the partitioning from the kubuntu installation rather than disk management
[07:57] <diogenes_> burten, i'd recommend to do it from windows with EASEUS
[07:58] <burten> weird how the installer constantly freezes everytime i leave it
[07:58] <burten> have to force shutdown
[08:07] <CrazyTux> I just installed Kubuntu 18.04.
[08:07] <CrazyTux> what are the packages most recommended to be installed on Kubuntu?
[08:12] <CrazyTux> Kubuntu 18.04 is awesome.
[10:41] <BluesKaj> 'Morning folks
[11:02] <belton> ive had to restart the installer 3 times so far, it always freezes at some part, then when i force shut down and restart it, it progresses a little further then freezes again
[11:03] <belton> first it happened while partitioning, then while searching for file systems and now while creating the file system
[11:05] <BluesKaj> belton: which kubuntu version?
[11:05] <belton> 18.04
[11:06] <BluesKaj> ok, you must have an older iso version, find the latest one and try that ..tere was abug in the older version installer
[11:07] <belton> weird i saw that as the latest one
[11:11] <mparillo_> It should be 18.04.1
[11:12] <belton> i got it from here https://kubuntu.org/getkubuntu/
[11:12] <belton> 64 bit version
[11:12] <belton> it could be .01
[11:12] <belton> kubuntu-18.04.1-desktop-amd64
[11:14] <belton> i used rufus to put it on a usb
[11:15] <belton> for the partition scheme: MBR, for the file system: FAT32

[23:00] <BenediktXVII> Hello everybody, I need help with permissions for Thunderbird in Kubuntu. I just installed Kubuntu and installed Thunderbird. Now I am trying to save attachements, but it seems that Thunderbird doesn't have writing permissions. How do I set them ?
[23:23] <bprompt> BenediktXVII:    how did you install thunderbird?  off a .bzip2 file?
[23:24] <BenediktXVII> nope, through Discovery
[23:24] <BenediktXVII> I checked the command in the menu, it seems to be a flatpack
[23:24] <BenediktXVII> bprompt: Thanks for helping me :)
[23:25] <bprompt> a flatpack?
[23:26] <BenediktXVII> This is the command executed when I launch Thunderbird " /usr/bin/flatpak run --branch=stable --arch=x86_64 --command=thunderbird --file-forwarding org.mozilla.Thunderbird @@u %u @@ "
[23:28] <bprompt> hmmm so it should have been rooted to install I assume, maybe is trying to save the attachments to a directory not owned by that account
[23:29] <bprompt> BenediktXVII:    I don't run Thunderbird myself, but it should have permissions, unless what I can think of is, that is trying to save to a folder not-owned by the user account is running under
[23:32] <BenediktXVII> bprompt:  I checked those permissions too. I am not fond of TB either. I prefer Kontact. But I have an issue where Kontact would not send outgoing mail. That's kind of annoying with an e-mail client ;)
[23:34] <bprompt> hmmm
[23:34] <BenediktXVII> might be a permission problem, I am just checking
[23:36] <BenediktXVII> I tried to do download a torrent and got this error: "Unable to create /home/benedikt/.local/share/ktorrent/tor3/torrent: Permission denied"
[23:36] <bprompt> BenediktXVII:   only thing I can think of offhand is, run Discovery as root, with kdesudo, so the package has root authorizations, you could always check  User Groups and add some more groups to Thunderbird
[23:44] <bprompt> BenediktXVII:   hmmm have to dash, but is what'd do, you can always try using the package installation from mozilla.org instead of using the Discovery version, the download itself is a .bzip2 file, so is pretty much just a stand-alone app, you "sudo" extract the file to whatever folder you want, and run the executable, I do that with say Firefox, unzip it at /usr/apps/firefox, with a "sudo"
[23:44] <BenediktXVII> bprompt: Thanks a lot for the help :)
[23:45] <bprompt> BenediktXVII:     sudo tar -xvjf thunderbird-install-file.bz2 -C folder_you_want_it_extracted_to
