 Hello! S … Touchpad scrolling settings are greyed  out in Cosmic. How do I activate them??
[00:08] <valorie> hmmm, let me check my own, @Anarchotaoist
[00:09] <valorie> mattfly: haven't seen updates there lately in cosmic, so dunno
[00:09] <valorie> haven't heard any complaints
[00:10] <valorie> @Anarchotaoist mine are grayed out too
[00:10] <valorie> I'm going as in the devel chan
[00:11] <mattfly> kwin only increases memory usage :/
[00:11] <mattfly> until theres no memory left
[00:11] <mattfly> and i have 16gb
[00:14] <valorie> https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=387153 < https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=387153
[00:14] <valorie> please add your info
[00:14] <mattfly> not using wayland
[00:14] <valorie> mattfly: that was for @Anarchotaoist
[00:15] <mattfly> i realized :P
[00:15] <valorie> yikes, mattfly, that seems like a serious bug
[00:15] <valorie> unfortunately nvidia hasn't been playing nice with KDE for awhile
[00:15] <valorie> recently they have changed their stance so I hope for better
[00:16]  * valorie runs nvidia too
[00:16] <valorie> oh gosh, I didn't highlight @Anarchotaoist correctly, sorry
[00:19] <mattfly> nvidia still hates linux :'(
[00:20] <mattfly> im trying to hibernate since ubuntu 17.10...
[00:20] <mattfly> no sucess
[00:20] <valorie> there are a few ways to hibernate
[00:20] <valorie> how many have you tried?
[00:20] <valorie> the built-in way doesn't work for me
[00:21] <valorie> at least in my travel laptop, and that isn't nvidia
[00:21] <valorie> however, right-clicking to hibernate does
[00:23] <mattfly> ive triead maaany ways
[00:24] <mattfly> its a long story
[00:24] <mattfly> i show u
[00:25] <mattfly> first this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/uswsusp/+bug/1770491
[00:27] <mattfly> and i tried all this: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/667833
[00:27] <mattfly> but this s2disk thing doesnt mind anymore
[00:27] <mattfly> I upgrade to the recent kernel 4;19.2 and the nvidia drivers 410.78
[00:28] <mattfly> mine is a gtx 1050 ti, dell laptop, now
[00:28] <mattfly> the problem now is that with the nvidia profile enabled im not able to resume from hibernation on hibernate or pm-hibernate or systemctl, but if thats set to intel it works perfectly
[00:29] <mattfly> then i tried this...  just let me find a link
[00:29] <mattfly> https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/1030624/linux/regarding-issues-on-resume-from-hibernate-/
[00:29] <mattfly> and i oppened this: https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/1044198/linux/any-chance-of-making-hibernation-works-on-ubuntu-18-04-/post/5297622/?offset=3#5297660
[00:30] <mattfly> and this is how it is now
[00:31] <mattfly> if i go back to old kernel and drivers s2disk hangs
[00:32] <valorie> :(
[00:32] <valorie> do you have bumblebee or so so you can switch easily?
[00:32] <mattfly> no
[00:32] <mattfly> nvidia-settings
[00:32] <mattfly> some gui for prime-selector
[00:33] <mattfly> but it requires a reboot to take effect
[00:33] <mattfly> hibernation worked so well on 16.04 :/
[00:36] <mattfly> another problem its annoying me is that since i got this computer with an ssd I almost always have to run fsck manually on startup
[00:36] <mattfly> specially for the swap partition
[00:36] <mattfly> it is a huge swap with 16gp
[00:36] <mattfly> on the ssd
 @valorie, OK, so it is a bug at thus point?  Info? What in particular? I will have to post in a few hours time, sorry! Busy at work now. Thanks
[02:40] <valorie> @Anarchotaoist I was at dinner -- just comment on the bug report as I did
 @Bek_dag, Screen freezing at anytime and flickering kubuntu logo on start up
 Help anyone
[06:31] <valorie> @Duong Ngo - the Kubuntu team packages KDE software; we don't write it
[06:31] <valorie> that said, our devels are active in the KDE community as well, and sometimes can do fixes
[06:32] <valorie> Nate Graham in particular has been making Discover hugely better
[06:47] <scalr> Hi, all. I recently changed my computer username to something else via these instructions: https://askubuntu.com/questions/34074/how-do-i-change-my-username
[06:48] <scalr> However, now my Kubuntu 18.04 installation acts slightly funny in some regards. In particular, my WiFi networks were all forgotten.
[06:48] <scalr> How exactly would one recover the old keyring?
[06:49] <valorie> did you follow those instructions to the letter?
[06:50] <scalr> Yes
[06:50] <valorie> because if you change the owner of your $HOME that should work
[06:50] <valorie> did you kill the running processes as it says?
[06:50] <valorie> because those would be linked to your old username
[06:51] <scalr> I actually didn't do so, since I wasn't logged in. I think I will try that really quick. One moment.
[06:52] <scalr> I'll be back in a moment
[06:57] <lordievader> Good morning
[06:58] <valorie> hi lordievader
[06:58] <lordievader> Hey valorie
[06:58] <lordievader> How are you doing?
[06:59] <scalr> Alright, I'm back. Just as I thought, no processes from the previously used username are present (since I followed the process using a root terminal in recovery mode)
[06:59] <scalr> The other goofy things my Kubuntu seems to be doing is that the brightness buttons no longer work
[07:02] <valorie> sorry scalr, about to leave IRC and go to bed
[07:02] <valorie> might be best to restate your question and the guide you are following
[07:02] <valorie> best of luck
[07:03] <valorie> lordievader: doing well, and I hope you are too!
[07:03] <valorie> have a great day
[07:03] <lordievader> Doing good here :)
[07:06] <scalr> Restating: I tried to change my Kubuntu username to something else using the following guide: https://askubuntu.com/questions/34074/how-do-i-change-my-username
[07:06] <scalr> However, some things in my Kubuntu installation have broken. For one, my keychain seems to have been erased, which means things like my WiFi networks were all forgotten. Secondly, some other things like my brightness buttons also broke in the process.
[07:16] <hateball> oh they left
[07:17] <hateball> still plenty of things in KDE/Plasma that has hardcoded username in config files, that might need to be grep/sed'd as wlel
[07:17] <hateball> scalr: still plenty of things in KDE/Plasma that has hardcoded username in config files, that might need to be grep/sed'd as wlel
[07:18] <hateball> so even if you are the owner of a file, if the config itself expects some path like /home/oldusername/blahblah, well then you'll have a bad time
[07:21] <scalr> Indeed I see that when I open some of the files in .config
[07:21] <scalr> I ran the sed command listed on that webpage, but apparently it doesn't get everything
[07:22] <scalr> So the concern is what should I do?
[07:22] <scalr> Do I change the username back?
[07:25] <hateball> well... unless you've actually manage to change stuff already using sed, then *those* things will break if you change back
[07:28] <scalr> When I run the sed command from the Ask Ubuntu, it won't tell me what it's changed. I run it, and it attempts to run on an Android folder in my home directory (where the Android SDK is located), and throws an error
[07:29] <hateball> you can just manually fix what your script/oneliner didnt also
[07:30] <scalr> Who knows where those are though?
[07:31] <scalr> It says "sed: couldn't edit /home/scalr/Android: not a regular file"
[07:50] <scalr> So I ran a command I found on Google using grep to replace all instances in my home folder. That might've been a bad idea, considering it's been running for 10 minutes.
[11:28] <BluesKaj> 'Morning all
 @valorie, Installing an extras package 'xserver-xorg-input-synaptics' from Muon solved the issue! ✅
[15:39] <turbo64> is there a way to disable the thing where pressing any key on the desktop starts krunner?
[15:39] <turbo64> i asked in #kde and they refuse to answer
[18:47] <Quantos> This is probably a strange question, a friend just gave me a copy of ARK
[18:48] <Quantos> I'm wondering how it runs on KUbuntu
[18:48] <Quantos> It's installing now, I'm just wondering if there's anything I should be aware of
[20:45] <chcknrub> i figured out something today while driving
[20:45] <chcknrub> i thought every person is linked to someone.... basically the concept of links
[20:45] <chcknrub> same in programming... for a piece of code.. you have to find or understand all references... or links
[20:45] <chcknrub> basically precedent code and dependent codes... which are like links too
[20:45] <chcknrub> so we could either take care or break the links etc.... but it is there
[20:45] <chcknrub> so in programming ,the more we know, the better.. coz we can see more links
[21:52] <valorie> we are indeed all connected
