| IrcsomeBot1 | <Phil Linux> Good morning! | 09:42 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Phil Linux> Phil Linux: … Hey guys! Just came from a friend who wanted to try Linux. Discover really blew the show! Typing "thunderbird" repeatedly did show everything but thunderbird! | 09:42 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Phil Linux> In Kubuntu 18.04. | 09:43 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Phil Linux> Very sad and a very good reason to backport newer and better versions of discover to 18.04! | 09:43 |
| lordievader | !info thunderbird | 10:02 |
| ubottu | thunderbird (source: thunderbird): Email, RSS and newsgroup client with integrated spam filter. In component main, is optional. Version 1:52.9.1+build3-0ubuntu0.18.04.1 (bionic), package size 47521 kB, installed size 128537 kB | 10:03 |
| Jussi | !info discover | 10:06 |
| ubottu | discover (source: discover): hardware identification system. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.1.2-8 (bionic), package size 23 kB, installed size 88 kB | 10:06 |
| Jussi | hrrr | 10:06 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Phil Linux> I really do not get what you are trying to tell me. | 10:30 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Phil Linux> Normally I find it in discover. Just this time I did not find it. Retried repeatedly and still no luck. | 10:31 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <acheronuk> @Phil Linux, Not Discover's fault in this case as far as I know. A Ubuntu issue in it's appstream data, which is what Discover uses to know what is available. | 10:56 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Phil Linux> Oak. What's the solution if a non-CLI-user like my friend wants to install thunderbird? | 10:57 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <acheronuk> @Phil Linux, Muon package manager I guess | 10:58 |

| Heebie | Hello. For some reason, KDE's clock is showing me the time, and the settings dialogue is showing my timezone, in LMT (Local Mean Time.. a "nonsense" time zone) resulting in time within KDE being one hour ahead of IST (Irish Standard Time.. not India Standard Time, in this case.) Anyone know whom I should get in touch with about this mistake? | 11:35 |
| dodi | Have several problems with 18.04 installed from live CD. | 11:55 |
| dodi | NumPad in cursor mode does not handle CTRL properly | 11:55 |
| BluesKaj | Hey folks | 12:05 |
| ainz | Hello | 12:30 |
| dodi | How do I get multiple workspaces? | 12:37 |
| BluesKaj | dodi, you can use virtual desktops or actitvities or both in kmenu system settings>workspace>desktop behavior | 12:39 |
| dodi | Thanks, missed "Arbeitsflächen" in the German version | 12:42 |
| BluesKaj | workspace:-) | 12:43 |
| dodi | Also an idea about keyboard configuration? | 12:45 |
| ainz | Is there a way to stop the kde taskbar from freezing? I'm on kubuntu (installed it on Ubuntu 18.04 instead of downloading kubuntu directly) | 12:46 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <kusuma_loka> @ainz, I think its not wise to install kubuntu from ubuntu. Because sometimes its unstabble | 13:14 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <kusuma_loka> Based on my experience | 13:14 |
| Captain_Haddock | Hello, I'm trying to upgrade to 18.04 from 17.10 and the upgrader crapped itself and quit saying that my system is now unstable. Help? | 15:16 |
| TJ- | Captain_Haddock: #1 Don't Panic :) | 15:18 |
| TJ- | Captain_Haddock: there *should* be logs, I think under /var/log/dist-upgrade/ or similar - long time since I needed to look at those | 15:18 |
| Captain_Haddock | TJ-: Thanks. Yes, I see a lot of logs. | 15:19 |
| Captain_Haddock | TJ-: I looked up a bunch of Googled solutions and from what I can tell, apt is no longer functional. dpkg quits stating "too many errors"./ | 15:21 |
| TJ- | Captain_Haddock: ouch. Were you dist-upgrading from the GUI, or from shell? | 15:22 |
| Captain_Haddock | GUI | 15:22 |
| Captain_Haddock | It threw up a bunch of issues during the upgrade, but offered to ignore it. | 15:23 |
| Captain_Haddock | Isn't it supposed to check for incompatibilities before proceeding? :/ | 15:23 |
| TJ- | Captain_Haddock: OK. first, check the obvious. Is there disk space free? "df -h" and "df -ih" to check free-space and inodes respectively | 15:23 |
| Captain_Haddock | There's 51G free. | 15:24 |
| TJ- | Captain_Haddock: sounds like almost enough :p | 15:24 |
| Captain_Haddock | :) | 15:24 |
| TJ- | Captain_Haddock: can you pastebin the dist-upgrade log that seems most recent/relavent ? | 15:24 |
| TJ- | s/relavent/relevant/ | 15:24 |
| Captain_Haddock | TJ-: These are the available logs: apt-clone_system_state.tar.gz apt.log apt-term.log eipp.log.xz history.log lspci.txt main.log term.log xorg_fixup.log | 15:25 |
| Captain_Haddock | They're all dated for today. | 15:25 |
| Captain_Haddock | Most recent are main.log xorg_fixup.log apt-term.log history.log term.log | 15:26 |
| TJ- | Captain_Haddock: term.log sounds most juicy :) | 15:28 |
| Captain_Haddock | TJ-: This is main.log https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/pc2NgPGxX4/ | 15:30 |
| TJ- | Captain_Haddock: line 1324 looks like the key | 15:31 |
| TJ- | Captain_Haddock: which, back at line 1280 shows " ERROR got an error from dpkg for pkg: 'libgphoto2-port12': '40.9543:package libgphoto2-port12:amd64 2.5.14-1 cannot be configured because libgphoto2-port12:i386 is at a different version " | 15:32 |
| Captain_Haddock | TJ-: term.log https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/S5C67KJB2F/ | 15:32 |
| Captain_Haddock | TJ-: Not sure what that is. But I do have gimp installed. | 15:32 |
| Captain_Haddock | There's also a couple of PPAs for games. | 15:32 |
| Captain_Haddock | Let me check | 15:32 |
| TJ- | Captain_Haddock: Have you yet tried "sudo apt-get --fix-broken install" ? | 15:34 |
| Captain_Haddock | TJ-: Flightgear, Lutris, Skype, Google Chrome, nVidia drivers, and Opera are the other repositories that I can see. | 15:34 |
| Captain_Haddock | TJ-: "apt-get: error while loading shared libraries: libzstd.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" | 15:35 |
| TJ- | Captain_Haddock: ouch, it's much worse than I feared. Don't be tempted to reboot | 15:38 |
| Captain_Haddock | :( | 15:38 |
| TJ- | Captain_Haddock: try "sudo dpkg --configure -a" | 15:40 |
| TJ- | Captain_Haddock: you may need to repeat that command multiple times if it manages a few then gets stuck again. This assumes it can load all the libraries it needs | 15:41 |
| Captain_Haddock | TJ-: That halted stating "too many errors". | 15:41 |
| TJ- | Captain_Haddock: hmmm | 15:41 |
| Captain_Haddock | The first error: "dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of libquadmath0:amd64: libquadmath0:amd64 depends on gcc-8-base (= 8.2.0-1ubuntu2~18.04)." | 15:42 |
| TJ- | Captain_Haddock: lets try 1 package at a time, in case we can coax it. "sudo dpkg --configure libisc169:amd64" | 15:43 |
| Captain_Haddock | TJ-: This is the dpkg output: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/ctnsqnqZsN/ | 15:43 |
| Captain_Haddock | TJ-: libisc: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/8P6FyDTXp4/ | 15:45 |
| Captain_Haddock | TJ-: Is it possible to get apt-get working first? Won't that help with the others? | 15:47 |
| TJ- | Captain_Haddock: At this point it could be a rabbit-hole, chasing broken library dependencies | 15:49 |
| TJ- | Captain_Haddock: to see if dpkg can make progress, try "sudo dpkg --configure libssl1.1" | 15:50 |
| Captain_Haddock | TJ-: That worked! | 15:52 |
| Captain_Haddock | $ sudo dpkg --configure libssl1.1 Setting up libssl1.1:i386 (1.1.0g-2ubuntu4.1) ... Processing triggers for libc-bin (2.27-3ubuntu1) ... | 15:52 |
| Captain_Haddock | (But that's all it said.) | 15:52 |
| TJ- | Captain_Haddock: right, so if we can get the correct sequence we may be able to get it to hobble :) | 15:52 |
| Captain_Haddock | OK :) | 15:53 |
| Captain_Haddock | I'm also looking at this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/1764858 | 15:53 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1764858 in apt (Ubuntu) "Can't update / install / delete packages due to missing libzstd.so.1" [Undecided,Invalid] | 15:53 |
| TJ- | Captain_Haddock: try "sudo dpkg --configure libzstd1" | 15:53 |
| Captain_Haddock | TJ-: $ sudo dpkg --configure libzstd1 dpkg: error processing package libzstd1 (--configure): no package named 'libzstd1' is installed, cannot configure Errors were encountered while processing: libzstd1 | 15:54 |
| TJ- | Captain_Haddock: "find /var/cache/apt/archives -name 'libzstd1*' " | 15:54 |
| Captain_Haddock | TJ-: There's a hit. /var/cache/apt/archives/libzstd1_1.3.3+dfsg-2ubuntu1_amd64.deb | 15:55 |
| TJ- | Captain_Haddock: right, now try "sudo dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/libzstd1_1.3.3+dfsg-2ubuntu1_amd64.deb" | 15:56 |
| Captain_Haddock | TJ-: Success! apt-get update also worked! | 15:56 |
| TJ- | Captain_Haddock: right... see if you can make some more progress now | 15:58 |
| TJ- | Captain_Haddock: "sudo apt-get --fix-broken install" | 15:58 |
| Captain_Haddock | TJ-: 172 upgraded, 43 newly installed, 1 to remove and 467 not upgraded. 1309 not fully installed or removed. Need to get 0 B/1,662 MB of archives. After this operation, 238 MB of additional disk space will be used. Do you want to continue? [Y/n] | 15:59 |
| Captain_Haddock | Shall I proceed? | 15:59 |
| TJ- | Captain_Haddock: yes :) | 15:59 |
| Captain_Haddock | (Still unpacking.) | 16:02 |
| Captain_Haddock | TJ-: Looks like it went pretty well. There were a few grey bits, but they seem fine. | 16:14 |
| TJ- | Captain_Haddock: you can always re-run that command to clean up if needed | 16:14 |
| Captain_Haddock | apt-get update + upgrade throws up more stuff. Installing those too. | 16:15 |
| TJ- | Captain_Haddock: you might need to use "apt-get dist-upgrade" to ensure all NEW versions are fetched | 16:15 |
| pycet | Upon plugging a USB mouse into my laptop, the following two system settings get reset: 1) Input Devices -> Trackpad -> Scrolling -> Reverse Vertical Scrolling (switches to disabled) and 2) Trackpad -> Pointer Motion -> Accelleration (switches to slowest). Running Kubuntu 18.10, Dell XPS 9360 | 16:24 |
| pycet | How can I prevent those settings from getting overridden every time I connect a wired mouse OR what kind of shell script could I use to programtically set the config files | 16:25 |
| Captain_Haddock | TJ-: Thanks mate. Looks like everything's upgrade OK. You're a life saver :) Time to reboot. *Fingers crossed* | 16:31 |
| Captain_Haddock | upgraded* | 16:31 |
| TJ- | Captain_Haddock: I'll cross them :) | 16:32 |
| Captain_Haddock | TJ-: Thanks again. The system looks to be pretty stable. No issues so far besides an Nvidia one. But that comes and goes. | 17:46 |
| Captain_Haddock | Cheers :) | 17:46 |
| TJ- | Captain_Haddock: nice to know... it's a few years since I had to rescue a broken release-upgrade | 17:46 |
| Captain_Haddock | :) | 17:50 |
| solrac | Hello. Im kinda needing help with a touchpad issue | 19:27 |
| bprompt | solrac: hmmm touchpad issue? | 19:33 |
| bprompt | solrac: just get a mouse =) | 19:33 |
| solrac | :v | 19:34 |
| pycet | It's actually the mouse getting plugged in that seems to cause the touchpad to lose its settings | 19:35 |
| bprompt | solrac: well, what's the issue then? :| | 19:35 |
| solrac | Ive an ETPS/2 Elantech touchpad, but I can't get it to work; Im running the i8042 .reset, .nomux, .nopnp and .loop options but it still doesnt work | 19:35 |
| bprompt | pycet: is the mouse is plugged in, you shouldn't need the mousepad, no? | 19:36 |
| solrac | however, upon running dmesg I get an error https://pastebin.com/jJav4RVT | 19:36 |
| pycet | When I unplug the mouse to use the laptop "mobiley", the touchpad is super slow and the two finger scrolling direction reverses... I have to manually readjust the setting every time I "undock" (not actually using a dock, just the figure of speech) | 19:36 |
| pycet | But @bprompt, you are correct. I do not use the touchpad while I'm connected with the mouse | 19:37 |
| bprompt | solrac: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2360360 <---- maybe? as suggested there | 19:39 |
| solrac | checking | 19:39 |
| solrac | so...uninstall *evdev and *synaptics? | 19:41 |
| solrac | I mean arent those used by other parts of the input system? | 19:41 |
| solrac | I know its not called like that but you get me :V | 19:41 |
| bprompt | solrac: synaptics is for the touchpad only | 19:42 |
| solrac | and evdev? s: | 19:42 |
| bprompt | solrac: sure, try it, bear in mind, that some packages may be included on other installations | 19:44 |
| bprompt | solrac: so just because you're removing it, doesn't mean the functionality is gone, or another package doesn't provide it | 19:44 |
| solrac | here goes :V | 19:46 |
| solrac | brb | 19:47 |
| solrac | back.. | 19:51 |
| solrac | it didnt work | 19:51 |
| bprompt | solrac: shoot... dunno myself...seems lack of drivers | 19:53 |
| solrac | new dmesg tho | 19:55 |
| solrac | https://pastebin.com/41ytRaJq | 19:55 |
| kinghat | https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/6PRgcIMC/image.png | 19:55 |
| kinghat | not sure what thats about | 19:56 |
| bprompt | solrac: checked with the guys at #ubuntu yet? | 19:57 |
| solrac | not really. | 19:57 |

| riidom | Hello, what does it mean when there is a yellow bar next to an icon in task bar, instead of a blue one? | 21:17 |
| Captain_Haddock | riidom: Have a screenshot? | 21:20 |
| riidom | I just clicked it now it's gone.. so no sorry Captain_Haddock | 21:22 |
| riidom | it was on my steam client.. I suspect something with "activity happened"? Also the icon has a yellow-ish background | 21:22 |
| riidom | had* | 21:23 |
| Captain_Haddock | riidom: No worries. Yes, it could have been an alert of some kind. | 21:40 |

| Edisto | anyone having problems with streamtuner2 not loading shoutcast playlist? | 22:46 |
| bprompt | Edisto: since I don't use streamtuner2, so no :) | 22:48 |
| Edisto | hmmm... i guess i might have to switch to guayadeque or whatever its called | 22:49 |
| Edisto | you know I have to say... other than breaking things by updating while you're doing something kubuntu is far better than gnome | 22:56 |
| valorie | Edisto: nothing broke at all for me on my recent update to cosmic beta | 23:05 |
| valorie | I'm considering doing it on this box, my main laptop | 23:05 |
| Edisto | i was updating yesterday and my sound went out, then my firefox stopped visiting pages, and there was a 3rd but I can't remember where I had to reboot and they all restored | 23:11 |
| Edisto | in gnome whenver i ran an update everything kept working | 23:11 |
| Edisto | with reboot required. But that's small I guess. I was thinking at the time it was major | 23:12 |
| Edisto | until i rebooted | 23:12 |
| Edisto | er with no reboot required | 23:20 |
| valorie | reboot is pretty much always a good idea | 23:33 |
| valorie | or at least logging out and logging back in | 23:33 |
| === genii is now known as Barista | ||
| Edisto | this is just too sexy | 23:51 |
| Edisto | yeah, well currently I won't argue with that. It's not that much of a burden now that I know | 23:51 |
| Edisto | it's not permanent | 23:51 |
| Edisto | I switched from gnome because it literally broke with the kernel upgrades and having amdgpu-pro installed. Couldn't login to tty or anything. Screen just kept flicerking | 23:52 |
| Edisto | had the same issue with kde and I still could get into the tty to do amdgpu-pro-uninstall | 23:53 |
