jaafarAnyone having issues with the fans running max after suspend on 18.10?06:32
lordievaderGood morning07:29
lordievaderjaafar: What does `sensors` say about the temperatures?07:30
jaafarlordievader: hey thanks for responding. I've rebooted in the meantime (always clears it up) but let's see what I get right now with the fans back to normal07:55
jaafarcores range from 39C to 42C07:56
jaafarI feel like that was the case with the high fans as well but I can't swear to it07:56
lordievaderDoes it still happen after the reboot?07:59
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> Hi all . Got problem still. Is here in boot menu anything what's blocking booting kubuntu from external harddrive ?08:11

IrcsomeBot<Virus288> Turning on uefi don't allow me to boot from harddrive and damage windows on C so I can't boot pc at all08:12
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> I dont want to turn on uefi cuz I am scared I wont be able to  boot windows again08:15
TheBassMando you have windoz on a separate drive ? always a good  move08:17
jaafarlordievader: it happens after the first suspend, pretty consistently08:18
jaafarso... not directly after reboot, but after the first suspend after reboot08:18
jaafarIt was not happening in 18.04, just started after the upgrade08:19
jaafarAlso at the same time my networkmanager gets very strange... tries to connect to networks that aren't there, shows wifi as disabled (it is enabled), etc.08:19
jaafarthough this may be an unrelated problem08:19
lordievaderHmm, I had a laptop once with a similar issue years ago. Was never able to fix it.08:32
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> @TheBassMan, Bootable pendrive/cd ? Yes08:39

IrcsomeBot<Virus288> I can't boot my harddrive ( kubuntu from external harddrive )09:51
IrcsomeBot<Virus288> On its internal harddrive there is win 10 .09:51

IrcsomeBot<Virus288> I didnt do it yet in this laptop and I dont want to do it . I read many people's comments about hp that this pc after changing on uefi wont allow to boot windows again10:07

jubo2Hello and big thanks for the awesome desktop OS11:06
jubo2I got a need. I need to encrypt a directory in such a way that #1 if the HDD gets stolen no-one else can access the files there and #2 adding files to the directory is easy and straightforward11:07
jubo2What should I use? I'm on Kubuntu 18.04.111:07

BluesKajHowdy folks12:47
alekksanderBluesKaj: hi. i figured out the problem i was asking You about yesterday15:28
alekksanderturns out it wasn't my fault, but a bug. i've changed wifi password to be stored as not encrypted and wifi doesn't turn on and off and on again at system start15:29
=== Lord_of_Life_ is now known as Lord_of_Life
rainehdazeI've been trying to get wifi to work with a new adapter, and after getting the drivers installed for it things are... almost working. But whenever I try to connect through the gui, it just sticks on "configuring interface" then nothing happens. Via command line and "error: connection activation failed: (53) the wi-fi network could not be found." and similar17:04
IrcsomeBot<Barika> How do I turn off single click mode for dolphin.18:18
Piratykubuntu is official spin of ubuntu?19:18
Piratyso 18.04 is the same package config than regular ubuntu? (except -unity +plasma obviously)19:19
IrcsomeBot<Linuxophil> yes19:19
Piratythanks Linuxophil19:19
PiratyI am an advanced linux user, but i never used ubuntu before. does it have graphical integration for package updates? something that a not-so-experienced-linux-user might understand (i think of some notify widget that says: "you can update N packages" or similar)19:22
Merc yup19:26
Piratyalso kubuntu?19:26
Mercdefault kde desktop has update notification thing19:26
Mercyup19:26
Piratyvery well then, kubuntu it will be on the newlaptop for the lady on christmas19:27
Merc:-)19:27
Piraty(but just because for some reason my favourite distro refused to boot) ;)19:27
Mercheh that happened to me a few years ago, i had a new PC and fedora refused to boot to installer19:28
Mercso i started using ubuntu19:28
Merci still prefer rpm/dnf to ubuntu tools, but i got used to them19:29
Piratywhere can i find ubuntu/kubuntu sources? they're not highlighted on both webpages19:29
Piratyat least not on the front19:29
Mercno idea19:29
BluesKajpackage sources?19:31
Piratynot sources of packages, sources of package makefiles (dunno how it's called in debian's terms)19:31
Piratybuild recipies19:32
Piratyto find out what flags + patches are used etc19:32
Mercthe package sources19:33
Piratywouldn't that be tarballs of each packaged project?19:34
Mercyeah but the build instructions are in there too19:35
Piratyah right, that's how debian does it19:35
Piratyaccording to sources on the net, hardware support on 18.04 is limited, 18.10 works better. can i have 18.04 installed and add a 4.19 kernel still?19:36
Mercyou can do anything you like, but distributions work best when you stick to distribution packages.  if you go outside that, only your skill in systems administration can save you if something goes wrong19:38
Mercdo you feel lucky?19:39
Piratyi do that all the time on my own machines, don't worry about me19:41
Mercalright then, you know very well a linux system is a kernel +GNU utils, you can install any kernel you like :)19:42
Piratyubuntu doesn't stack kernels i guess but only keep latest by default kernel package?19:43
PiratyMerc: Gnu utils not neccesarily... ;)19:43
valoriePiraty: why not write a live USB and try it out on the new laptop?20:20
valorieyou can try both the LTS and 18.10 and see which works the best20:21
Piratyi did already, 18.04 has elemtary issue20:21
* valorie is on 18.10 and very happy with it20:21
Piratyyeah i want to renfore usage of lts20:21
Piratybut currently doesn't work nice20:21
valoriethat's too bad20:21
Piratyand i def don't want to reinstall in 3month or whenever 18-lts gets 4.19 kernel20:21
valoriedid you try adding backports?20:22
valorie!backports20:22
ubottuIf new updated packages are built for an application, they may go into Kubuntu Backports, which is one of the official Kubuntu PPAs. See https://community.kde.org/Kubuntu/PPAs for more information.20:22
Piratypersonally, i live on the edge using Void Linux with many custom packages, but that is not what the lady would like20:22
valoriethat page is slightly dated but still accurage20:23
valorieaccurate20:23
valorieI've been using backports for years and have not once had a problem20:23
Piratyare kernels backported?20:23
Piratyso i can use the new one?20:24
valoriethat I don't know20:24
valoriethere is a edgers PPA or so20:24
Piratymeh20:24
Piraty;)20:25
valoriehttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack20:25
valoriehow did I forget this20:25
valoriecompletely supported, not a ppa20:25
Piratystaying on 18.10 and dropping to an lts (maybe it next lts supersedes current 18.10?) is possible? that would technically be no downgrade20:25
valoriewell, I personally can't stand outdated software so I never stay on LTS20:26
valoriebut I get why people do that20:26
valorie18.10 has been great for me20:26
valorieSysinfo for 'valorie-Oryx-Pro': Running inside KDE Plasma 5.14.4 on Ubuntu 18.10 (Cosmic Cuttlefish) powered by Linux 4.18.0-12-generic, CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7700HQ CPU @ 2.80GHz at 1499-1500/3800 MHz, RAM: 8932/32118 MB, Storage: 380/1144 GB, 226 procs, 13.5h up20:26

Piraty32g yikes20:27
valorieyeah, it's a big box20:27
valorielol20:27
valorievery nice System 76 laptop20:28
valorie4.15 what?20:28
valorieI have Plasma 5.14.4 on the 4.18.0-12-generic kernel20:29
bpromptthe installation of 18.x is less than 10gbs, so 32gbs is just probably about 10gbs of mp3/mp4s and a few other apps =)20:29
Piratyi can read that, i referred to the diagram on the LTS-ES20:29
valorieok20:29
bpromptwell, I use 16.04 and happy with it =P20:29
valoriebprompt: nice20:29
valorienot everyone wants the latest, which is fine20:30
valorieas long as security updates are done20:30
bpromptvery stable for what I run, as far as outdate software, well the LTS is meant that it is not so much the case, I installed chrome 72 and firefox 64, about an hour ago20:30
Piratyas long as amazon advertising is not introduced again i'm fine with having an ubuntu machine in my networ20:31
bpromptvalorie:    new doesn't always equate "good", simply new, often enough, but it glitches now and then, I did install 18.04, it broke a few things, fixed them, it broke some more so it was too much to bother when in 16.04 everything runs smooth20:32
valorieyup, linux is all about choice20:32
valorieit ain't religion20:32
bpromptand I run many KDE apps, not Kwin though, I run LXQT, very light and good window manager, so plasma is not an issue, but I do run quite a bit kde apps20:33
valorieme too20:33
bpromptkde as well as QT apps20:33
valorieI'm a big fan of Falkon, the new browser20:34
valorieI have to fall back to chrome for a few genealogy plugins that are available for it only20:34
valorieother than that it Just Works20:34
Piratywhy is there no i3buntu?20:34
valoriei3buntu?20:35
Piraty;)20:35
bpromptnew browser?  chrome no good? heheh, for file manager I use mostly either Krusader or Konqueror, Konqueror has lots of tabs and view-splits I use, since I often open 5 or so directories at once20:35
valoriekonqueror used to be my favorite20:35
valorieit got to be not so good as a browser20:35
valorieand now dolphin is awesome for files20:35
bpromptcorrection, I don't use Konqueror as a webbrowser, but as a file manager, yes, it has a filemanager profile20:36
valorierekonq died....20:36
valorieright, it used to be my most-used app --- after Konversation20:36
bpromptas a file manager is pretty good, you can not just do multitabs but also multi-views, horizontal and vertical, and do that quite a bit, I open 3 or 5 directories at once20:36
valoriehaven't tried it recently20:37
valorieoh my, not even installed20:37
Piratynot far away and systemd will ship a webbrowser, don't worry20:38
valorielol20:38
valoriegive lennert credit for sticking around to help fix systemd20:39
bpromptPiraty:   right, just another Chromium fork =P, might as well get chrome or chromium20:39
Piratylol valorie20:40
Piraty"fix systemd" as in merge all the things that could possibly be merged (and also those that shouldn't)?20:41
valorieno judgements from me -- that is all fought in areas I'm not involved with20:46
valorieby the time the changes are accepted into Debian they seem to work20:46
Mercvalorie: when it is time to upgrade from 18.10, a system can be upgraded using apt, right?21:31
valorieyes21:31
Mercit'ls not like i will have to reinstall my OS or anything21:31
Mercok21:31
valorieexactly21:31
valoriehowever, it's good practice to make sure that your backups are recent and complete21:31
Mercsomeone earlier today said to me "i dont like 18.10 cuz it means you have to update every 6 months"21:31
valoriepfff21:31
Mercbut it's like, so what, you just run a command21:31
MercBIG DEAL21:31
valorieexactly21:31
valorieit does mean rebooting21:32
Mercbut i am gonna check out this backports21:32
Merci didnt know about backports21:32
Mercyeah rebooting is no problem21:32
Mercsoooo ah21:33
MercLTS enablement gets you a newer kernel?21:34
Mercdoes 18.10 have newer enablement kernel?21:34
valorieI have 4.18.0-12-generic right now21:34
