[00:36] <kalikatz> i found this command to blank screeen "xset dpms force standby" can this be attached to the ctrl-alt-L that also locks the screen?
[01:50] <kalikatz> fixed:  created a .desktop to point to a bash scripts with "qdbus org.kde.screensaver /ScreenSaver Lock; sleep 5; xset dpms force standby" .  removed the ctrl-alt-L bind in global keyboard shortcuts and created a custom shortcut with same said keys to run said bash script :)   i feel the power, lol
[01:53] <kalikatz> according to my timestamp, that took 3hrs 20 min
 Hello! If I upgrade 18.04 to 18.10 is it true that I first need to disable or remove PPA's??
[02:45] <Dragnslcr> I believe it's better to disable them, yes
[02:46] <Dragnslcr> Though I vaguely remember from the last time I did it that the upgrade tool will disable them for you
[03:41] <fishfox> Hey take a look at this -- any ideas?  https://imgur.com/a/dPWl4at
[03:41] <fishfox> Window flits across the screen
[05:01] <valorie> Dragnslcr: I don't bother; the tool disables them for you
[05:02] <valorie> fishfox: that's in kubuntu?
[05:16] <fishfox> valorie: yes
[05:21] <valorie> oops, my reply got eaten
[05:21] <valorie> I've never seen that happen in Kubuntu before
[05:21] <fishfox> Weird eh?
[05:21] <valorie> very
[05:21] <valorie> looks annoying as hell
[05:21] <fishfox> It's just for that particular window type
[05:21] <fishfox> The entire rest of the system is fine
[05:21] <fishfox> And it doesn't happen on other Linux distros / Windows / macOS
[05:21] <fishfox> So confused
[05:24] <valorie> so it's either your VM software or what you are running inside it
[05:54] <jacky> tfw you run `do-release-upgrade` and it just works
[05:56] <jacky> some wonky stuff
[05:56] <jacky> geoclue seemed to want permissions but no longer working with redshift (for the indicator)
[06:01] <valorie> I just had to put in latlong again, but it instantly works
[06:01] <valorie> I guess I never had geoclue
[06:01] <jacky> yeah geoclue is _super_ handy if you're on the move
[06:01] <jacky> I'm _usually_ home (I work from there)
[06:01] <jacky> but I'd pick up and fly like once a month
[06:02] <jacky> actually geoclue could even change my current timezone for me if I figured out how to do that
[06:02]  * jacky will linger and set an alert if someone mentions it though
[06:02] <jacky> excellent release all in all!
[06:03] <valorie> I should try it for my travel laptop
[06:03] <valorie> thanks for mentioning it
[06:04] <jacky> https://i.imgur.com/MlLRqpW.png new feature in Latte Dock? (very nice!)
[06:04] <jacky> yeah lemme see if I can pull up its page
[06:04] <jacky> http://simgunz.org/projects/redshift-plasmoid/ (src: https://github.com/simgunz/redshift-plasmoid)
[06:06] <valorie> thanks, jacky
[06:06] <jacky> 👍
[06:07] <valorie> it will be nice when we can switch to wayland and use nightshift natively
[06:07] <valorie> until then, I like redshift
[06:09]  * jacky looks up nightshift
[06:09] <valorie> it's part of plasma
[06:10] <valorie> I think
[06:14] <jacky> hmm
[06:14] <jacky> I can't find info on it
[06:15] <valorie> it was being tested, but it was decided I think to postpone it
[06:15] <valorie> probably in the notes of the plasma team meetings
[06:15] <valorie> not so easy to search mail list archives though
[06:18] <jacky> gotcha
[06:23] <lordievader> Good morning
 @Dragnslcr, Ok, so can I just uncheck them is Software Sources then, and recheck after upgrade - no need to remove completely? Thanks.
 @jacky, Awsome! What version of Latte Dock? Where can I find it? Thanks!
[06:59] <jacky> this is latte-dock 0.8.1 in cosmic (18.10)
[06:59] <jacky> Anarchotoaist ^
 @jacky, Oh, ok. I just need to update from Bionic! 😃
[07:02] <jacky> it's possible that it exists in kubuntu-backports ppa
[12:16] <BluesKaj> Hey folks
[12:43] <diogenes_> Velizar Peshev, try to remove the previous save network connection (the SSID), reboot and try to connect again.
[12:43] <diogenes_> saved network*
[22:15] <valorie> hmmm, spotify
[22:15] <valorie> !spotify
[22:15] <valorie> thought not
[22:15] <valorie> I doubt that there are any free applications which can use spotify's apis
 there is a spotify snap
[22:42] <valorie> aha
[22:42] <valorie> so the person wasn't using discover then
 or not with the snap backend
[22:43] <jacky> anyone having issues with pulseaudio post upgrade?
[22:43] <jacky> I've tried reinstalling packages to no avail
[22:46] <valorie> sound seems to work great
[22:47] <valorie> dunno about pa in particular
[22:50] <valorie> I have noticed that systemd is using a LOT of CPU
[22:50] <valorie> half!
[22:55] <jacky> yeah the new overlord of the PC lol
