k_sze[work]If I have the vanilla ubuntu 18.04 with GNOME desktop, what should I install (and configure) to basically convert it to kubuntu with Plasma 5?09:10
BluesKajHi folks11:19
IrcsomeBot<Anarchotaoist> @k_sze[work], There is this: https://blog.ubuntu.com/2018/12/15/kde-apps-at-the-snap-of-your-fingers but maybe not ready as a daily workhorse.11:52
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> @Anarchotaoist, Not even slightly ready for production yet, so I would not suggest that in any way.11:58

alekksanderBluesKaj: yes it is15:22
BluesKajalekksander, is it fairly old, over 5 yrs?15:22
BluesKaji have one that takes up to 1 minute to connect and it's 10 yrs old15:24
alekksanderbut it used to work fine. only later after system upgrade it got corrupted, system was looking for something else than wlan0 (or whatever it was) and i had to manually chane some file and fix the name. but before i realized how to fix it i tried a bunch of other things… ofc not writing it down and be able to consciously revert changes it resulted in problem i've already described15:24
BluesKaji 've looked in the logs ,but they don't show much15:25
BluesKajdo you recall the file , was? it in network-manager.conf15:27
BluesKajoops15:27
alekksanderi think among other things i wrote somewhere to force start it. but file names. sorry, not remembering :(15:27

BluesKajalekksander, changed managed to true in the network manager file15:32
BluesKajthen save it15:32
alekksanderBluesKaj: done. let me reboot15:32

Piratyand i'm unable to set mountpoint for the efi partition, is taht intended?17:21
Piratyah, official doc says esp mountpoint is set automatically by installer. would be fine to state that in the installer iteself17:29

[Relic]UEFI on both or legacy on one?22:35
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> to be honest....22:36
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> legacy I guess22:36
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> I never did open bios on my main pc since it have boot menu22:37
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> Give me 2 min to check it22:37
[Relic]I ran into a problem when one was uefi and another was legacy and the usb drive would crap out when it looked for the other22:37

IrcsomeBot<Virus288> To be honest . Hp doesn't allow me to change that22:42

IrcsomeBot<Virus288> (Photo, 1280x622) https://irc-attachments.kde.org/Ncekpj0m/file_11490.jpg22:44
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> Should I change it ?22:44
[Relic]you could try changing it and see if the hd shows up then22:46
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> On main pc in boot menu I got option 'ubuntu ' . It appeared after installing Ubuntu first time on pendrive . If I choose harddrive where I got installed kubuntu on my main pc , it show me error that this is not proper device to run system22:46
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> Did I do something wrong with that ?22:47
[Relic]so you are trying to dual boot windows and kubuntu22:48
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> I got kubuntu installed on harddrive22:49
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> external harddrive22:49
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> and on every pc I got , there is win 10 as main system installed on "C" = internal harddrive22:49
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> Only 1 there is in pc22:49
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> I could boot kubuntu from pendrive without any problems22:49
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> but I cant from harddrive22:50
[Relic]haven't done that before but I think you are looking for something like this ->  https://www.dionysopoulos.me/portable-ubuntu-on-usb-hdd/22:52
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> I dont think u get what I trying to say Or I am tired as hell and write stupid stuff22:53
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> I made bootable pendrive with kubuntu as live cd to install it22:53
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> I booted it on my pc ( it was just an iso to install kubuntu ) and I did install it on my harddrive22:53
[Relic]ok22:53
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> its working22:53
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> but other pc's see harddrive in bios22:54
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> but cant boot from it22:54
[Relic]ok22:54
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> When I click in boot menu "ubuntu" on my main pc it boot from it22:54
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> but when I choose just an harddrive it says that its not proper device22:54
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> No errors , no logs , nothing22:54
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> Thats why I ask22:55
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> what I did wrong22:55
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> is it only legacy or uefi ?22:55
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> I did same isntall with old pendrive22:55
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> it was working perfect22:56
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> on every pc22:56
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> but slow cuz its pendrive22:56
[Relic]so it is on your main computer and you want to access it from another computer?22:58
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> yep22:58
[Relic]from the screen shots one is uefi and one is legacy, try turing the legacy to uefi and check22:59
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> When I connect harddrive via usb-a 3.0 on my main pc , I can boot from it22:59
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> thx22:59
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> I want to move hardrvie to another pc22:59

IrcsomeBot<Virus288> I am noob when it coms to linux etc . Thats why I trying to learn some more23:00
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> thx23:00
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> Btw23:00
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> Will I still be able to boot windows?23:00
[Relic]think the hybrid should work, but not sure on every computer type23:01
[Relic]I have seen some very strange things done with computers23:01
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> What I mean ?23:02
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> So is it safe to turn on uefi or not ?23:02
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> It's not my pc . It's my friend and he got + 100 GB files on it but I got my files too so I fought to not trash his stuff and just boot kubuntu23:04
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> Will windows be safe with that ?23:04
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> Will I be able to boot it23:04

IrcsomeBot<Virus288> (Photo, 622x1280) https://irc-attachments.kde.org/nWDjUAR1/file_11491.jpg23:09
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> People are saying it's not safe :(23:09
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> Is it true ?23:09
[Relic]https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c04201984  <- reading this right now, but not sure; I would be worried about it without a very good look through, you might want to try the hp support/forums as they would be more knowledgable in their products23:13
[Relic]my guess is you would need to make a legacy install or upgrade the legacy to UEFI for windows which seems to be a hot topic on the hp site23:16
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> I'll read more about it . Thz23:19
[Relic]if you have access to an older legacy computer you could make a legacy install of kubuntu, which might be faster solution23:21
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> If I should be honest with u , i have no idea what are u talking about . Sorry but I am noob23:22
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> I just wanted to learn stuff and now it came out I can damage some1's pc like that23:23
[Relic]everyone starts somewhere, and best to find out before you do it23:23
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> But still . Thx 4 ur time <3 .I couldn't get help anywhere23:23
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> Ye023:23
[Relic]most of europe is near sleeping time I think right now23:24
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> 02 am here23:24
