IrcsomeBot<Anarchotaoist> Hello! I just upgraded to Cosmic from Bionic. All seems to  have gone well - except Mailspring and redshift are broken. I tried re-installing Mailspring but it is still  not working. Konsole says: mailspring … Segmentation fault (core dumped) Any idea how to get Mailspring working again? Thanks.06:48
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> @Anarchotaoist, Probably this: https://github.com/Foundry376/Mailspring/issues/110806:53
IrcsomeBot<Anarchotaoist> ok, thanks Rik, I'll look into that!06:55
bugal-jacksonokay I have fixed it so the GRUB menu appears on boot up. issue now is that only kubuntu appears, not my windows 10. my windows 10 still can boot, i just have to do it through bios07:11

IrcsomeBot<avizini> Hello,07:14
IrcsomeBot<avizini> How can I use openvpn with kubuntu?07:15
IrcsomeBot<avizini> openvpn —config xyz.ovpn works fine but is there something from network manager? When i goto network manager i see an option for Automatically conntect to VPN when using ...07:16
IrcsomeBot<avizini> How do I use that option?07:16
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> install the package 'network-manager-openvpn' first07:17
IrcsomeBot<avizini> Thanks!07:17
IrcsomeBot<avizini> @acheronuk That is already installed07:17
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> @Linuxophil configured with openvpn recently. he may be better placed to say. I've never used it07:18
IrcsomeBot<Anarchotaoist> Ok, Rik, that link had a .deb for mailspring, thanks, but another mailspring popped up in Discover. I decided to try that first. That worked! I just need to set up all my accounts again. argh! Perhaps I should give kmail another look in though?07:22
IrcsomeBot<Linuxophil> @Anarchotaoist, or you try hiri as a snap#07:27
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> Is the one in discover a snap? if so, it won't see your configs, naturally07:27
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> @Anarchotaoist ^07:28
IrcsomeBot<Anarchotaoist> @acheronuk, ah, ok. I did not check.07:29
IrcsomeBot<Anarchotaoist> @Linuxophil, Thanks for the suggestion. I do not use office365 though.07:30
IrcsomeBot<Anarchotaoist> @acheronuk, Yes, it is a snap. Will a .deb pick up my accounts saved on my computer? I did previously have a .deb.07:31
IrcsomeBot<avizini> ok thanks rik07:31
IrcsomeBot<avizini> Linuxophil Can you help me with that?07:31
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> @Anarchotaoist, I would think so07:32
IrcsomeBot<Anarchotaoist> Cool07:32
IrcsomeBot<Linuxophil> @avizini, I'll gladly try. Searching for this option right now.07:32
IrcsomeBot<Linuxophil> @avizini, Can you send me a screenshot?07:32
IrcsomeBot<avizini> (Photo, 295x170) https://irc-attachments.kde.org/fDSkXwdm/file_10437.jpg07:32
IrcsomeBot<avizini> yes, i want to use this feature. automatically connect to vpn when using this network07:33
IrcsomeBot<avizini> it should show add connections option in network manager from where users can import a opvn config. This worked in ubuntu , u budgie, u mate07:36
IrcsomeBot<Linuxophil> (Photo, 548x279) https://irc-attachments.kde.org/dg8fvCii/file_10438.jpg I cannot even select this option.07:37
IrcsomeBot<Linuxophil> @avizini, You might want to do it the following way:07:39
IrcsomeBot<avizini> (Photo, 866x601) https://irc-attachments.kde.org/pi300M0w/file_10439.jpg weird, it shows that optionf or me but there are no vpn configs and i cant imort one07:39
IrcsomeBot<avizini> @Linuxophil, ?07:39
IrcsomeBot<Linuxophil> @avizini, OK. Just switched computers. Now I see what you want.07:41
IrcsomeBot<Linuxophil> First you need to configure a VPN. You have your ovpn file, right?07:41
IrcsomeBot<Linuxophil> and all the keys?07:41
IrcsomeBot<avizini> yes07:41

IrcsomeBot<avizini> the window size was small, i didnt see that button :/07:43
IrcsomeBot<avizini> nvm, thanks07:43
IrcsomeBot<Linuxophil> then find the ovpn file.07:44
IrcsomeBot<Linuxophil> @avizini, Yes, that's a known bug. and it even didn't show a scroll bar, right?07:44
IrcsomeBot<Linuxophil> @avizini, Always happy to help!07:45
IrcsomeBot<avizini> @Linuxophil, no it shows one, i didnt notice that07:45

bugal-jacksonhow can i check if my linux is legacy or uefi?08:01
IrcsomeBot<avizini> you can isntall efibootmgr and then run efibootmgr, if its legacy then it will show an error08:02
IrcsomeBot<avizini> (Photo, 441x210) https://irc-attachments.kde.org/ZHSOlKmG/file_10443.jpg08:04
IrcsomeBot<avizini> if it was legacy then after efibootmgr command it would have shown an error08:04
bugal-jacksoni guess this is on uefi08:07
bugal-jacksonno error here08:07
IrcsomeBot<avizini> does it give output similar to the screenshot one?08:07
bugal-jacksonyes08:08
IrcsomeBot<avizini> yes, then its uefi installation08:08
bugal-jacksonthat's an issue08:08
IrcsomeBot<avizini> :(08:09
bugal-jacksonmy windows 10 is legacy, so to dual boot my linux should be legacy as well, correct?08:09
bugal-jacksoni mean i can still boot my windows 10, just doesn't appear in the grub menu08:09
IrcsomeBot<avizini> it should be but for example my computer supports both uefi and legacy boot together. I can install linux in uefi and win in legacy and it woould work08:10
bugal-jacksonwould like to fix this though, don't mind re-installing, only installed this a few hours ago08:10
IrcsomeBot<avizini> @bugal-jackson, yes it wont show up on grub menu but it would work08:10
IrcsomeBot<avizini> better reinstall it, either both uefi or both legacy08:11
bugal-jacksonany idea how to install kubuntu in legacy?08:13
IrcsomeBot<Linuxophil> @bugal-jackson, dumb question: Did you do sudo grub-update?08:13
IrcsomeBot<avizini> set boot mode to legacy by entering bios setup then reinstall it08:14
IrcsomeBot<Linuxophil> @bugal-jackson, You start the USB medium in legacy (not choose UEFI in boot menu).08:14
bugal-jacksonyea i have tried sudo-grub update08:14
IrcsomeBot<Linuxophil> @bugal-jackson, "sudo grub-update"08:15
bugal-jacksonoh oops, but yea that's what I used08:15
IrcsomeBot<Linuxophil> @bugal-jackson, Sorry: sudo update-grub08:15
IrcsomeBot<avizini> i once did this and win was legacy but ubuntu in uefi, the installer didnt detect windows neither it showed up in grub08:16
IrcsomeBot<Linuxophil> (Photo, 794x212) https://irc-attachments.kde.org/xcXTTFtF/file_10444.jpg Should give you an output like this08:17
bugal-jacksonyea i did that, it doesn't find my windows08:17
IrcsomeBot<Linuxophil> @bugal-jackson, OK08:17
IrcsomeBot<Linuxophil> @bugal-jackson, Easiest is to reinstall then.08:18
IrcsomeBot<avizini> anyone ever tried installing an os onto usb drive?08:18
IrcsomeBot<avizini> I am currently running kubuntu on usb and it works well08:18
IrcsomeBot<Linuxophil> @avizini, Yes. several times.08:19
IrcsomeBot<Linuxophil> Works great!08:19
IrcsomeBot<avizini> what about the life of usbs, did you break any of them?08:20
bugal-jacksonthis is how my bios settings were https://i.imgur.com/DGGIFYx.jpg08:20
IrcsomeBot<Linuxophil> @avizini, No.08:20
bugal-jacksonshould i change "other pci devices" to legacy?08:20
IrcsomeBot<avizini> https://askubuntu.com/questions/1058318/i-installed-ubuntu-mate-18-04-on-my-pendrive-how-can-i-maximise-the-life-of-tha08:21
IrcsomeBot<avizini> @bugal-jackson, try changing and see if the installr boots legacy mode08:22
IrcsomeBot<avizini> @bugal-jackson, yes08:23
IrcsomeBot<avizini> A PCI device is any piece of computer hardware that plugs directly into a PCI slot on a computer's motherboard.08:24
IrcsomeBot<avizini> dunno if it includes usbs, but switching it to legacy wont do any harm'08:24

bugal-jacksonalright08:24
bugal-jacksondo i need to delete my kubuntu? or just running the installer again will fix it?08:25
IrcsomeBot<avizini> @bugal-jackson, no, once booted just delete the partition using kde partition manager then install it08:26
IrcsomeBot<avizini> it should autodetect windowd this time08:26
bugal-jacksoni do that in kubuntu? or with my boot disc?08:27
IrcsomeBot<avizini> boot dicsc08:27
bugal-jacksonalright08:27
IrcsomeBot<avizini> chose try ubuntu08:28
bugal-jacksonokay08:29
IrcsomeBot<Anarchotaoist> @acheronuk, Yes, that worked. All my accounts loaded! 🙏08:32
IrcsomeBot<Anarchotaoist> Ok, Cpod is broken too! Is that also an electron app? How do I update electron if so? I cannot find it in Synaptic.08:37
bugal-jacksonalright08:53

IrcsomeBot<Anarchotaoist> Cpod from Discover will not install, and the Cpod snap in Discover crashes when searching for a podcast. I downloaded the .deb from github and it will not launch either! 😥09:04
IrcsomeBot<avizini> @bugal-jackson, if it works then dont touch it09:07
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> @Anarchotaoist, 3rd party proprietary app? I guess report to them if so.09:17
IrcsomeBot<Anarchotaoist> @acheronuk, ok, I just filed a bug report on github. Any recommendation for another podcast app?09:18
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> @avizini, maybe I should pin that ^^ 🤣09:18

bugal-jacksoni just ran boot-repair, it asks if my SSD is a removable disc. i gues technically it is... but do I choose yes or no?17:55
bugal-jacksonor does that term refer to usb drives and such17:55
jackyAnarchotaoist: Not to my knowledge! I just noticed it _working_ for me. I can check for particular settings though23:41
jackyIt's only appeared for me for KMail however23:42
