hateball:|10:58
anton-johansson:D11:00
anton-johanssonBut I assume it will be like X hours after the Ubuntu 18.10 release, or something similar?11:00
anton-johanssonNot sure how these flows work really, I haven't been waiting on a release before. :)11:01
hateballanton-johansson: usually the ISO is available for download a bit earlier than the release announcement11:05
hateballanton-johansson: that said, you can if you're eager to install, just grab a daily image and go with that11:05
anton-johanssonAllright, thanks hateball!11:08
hateballanton-johansson: granted there *could* be some bugs that arent ironed out yet...11:09
anton-johanssonYeah, I'll probably wait, it's not that big of a rush. :D11:10
anton-johanssonJust a bit eager to set up my new office laptop (and reinstalling my old one for home-purposes) with the new release11:11
anton-johanssonBut there's no rush! :)11:11
hateball:D11:11
hateballI am running beta on both work and home and no real issues11:11

hateballyeah, topic will be updated etc11:13
anton-johanssonawesome awesome11:13
eeoshi everybody! How do you package a source package in snap for ubuntu? Is it possible to transform an appimage package into a snap package?11:26
hateball!snap12:47
ubottuSnaps are containerised software packages similar to flatpaks or appimage. For more info, see https://snapcraft.io12:47
BluesKajHowdy folks13:04
IrcsomeBot<Linuxophil> Howdy BluesKaj!13:49
BluesKajhey Linuxophil13:49
IrcsomeBot<Linuxophil> Talking about snaps:13:50
IrcsomeBot<Linuxophil> I recently realized that there is this snap "common GTK themes" to relieve the theming problem of containered apps in Ubuntu. Is there a equivalent for QT? With for instance breeze and breeze dark cointainered up?13:50
BluesKajno idea13:51
BluesKajI don't use snaps13:52

ZeZuCurrent kubuntu is being a royal pain about windows that aren't manually clicked,  IE: using scroll wheel is bouncing back and forth ... it's terribly annoying.   iirc there is a setting related to this isn't there?17:16

neoncontrailsHello. I'm in livecd purgatory after changing the login window theme from kubuntu system preferences resulted in a black login screen. I'm attempting to follow some instructions for recovery, but encountering some hiccups...20:33
neoncontrailsThe advice I'm reading says to run dpkg-reconfigure sddm, however dpkg-query says 'sddm' is not installed.20:34
neoncontrailsDefault display manager of the current environment is gdm3, but I think that's an artifact of the Ubuntu 18.04 livecd. I'm almost positive my kubuntu environment uses sddm...20:34
neoncontrailsI'm not really sure how to proceed. Advice would be greatly appreciated!20:35
IrcsomeBot<Velizar Peshev> @neoncontrails, enable Canonical partners repo from software sources then try installing sddm again20:37
neoncontrailsI might mention, when I googled this I noticed many people reporting this symptom had NVIDIA proprietary drivers installed, which indeed I do. Inspecting the tail of the Xorg.0.log does indeed have some fishy NVIDIA warnings like setting the device to "NULL", but not sure what that might mean20:37
neoncontrails(Could post if helpful)20:37
neoncontrails@IrcsomeBot: Will try this and report back. Thank you20:38

neoncontrails@IrcsomeBot: Is this warning anything to be concerned about? Setting up libkscreenlocker5:amd64 (5.12.6-0ubuntu0.1) ... kscreenlocker_greet: no process found Setting up kde-config-screenlocker (5.12.6-0ubuntu0.1) ...20:50
IrcsomeBot<Velizar Peshev> Anyone faced LAN internet bugs in new 18.10?21:21
neoncontrailsWhen booting from a livecd, what's the effect of running 'apt install ...' as root? Are those changes actually persisted to disk?22:00
kalikatzcan a "blank screen" be invked during screen lock?  i like to ctrl-alt-L and leave my laptop processes running. But wuld like the option to blank screen as well.22:30
kalikatzneoncontrails:  i dnt think anythng is saved to a livecd.  but i could be wrong.   if its a CD, then for sure no to saving, USB, maybe22:31
valoriesomething can only be written to the USB if you created it with "persistence"22:46
valoriewhich most of us do not22:46
