 For the 2nd time now plasma has lost response. My mouse works but nothing on the desktop responds. Cpod is playing. I will have to smash the physical power off button and reboot. What's happening?
[00:54] <coderphive> I have never had that happen in plasma before
[00:59] <coderphive> I know that when I build my newer machine it was a bit unstable until I upgraded to a more stable release
[01:00] <coderphive> I'm now on 4.19.0-041900rc2-generic
[02:19] <valorie> @anarchotaoist - when it happens, it's usually kwin
[02:20] <valorie> when it used to happen what worked for me: kquitapp plasma in yakuake
[02:20] <valorie> oops, kquitapp plasmashell
[02:21] <valorie> then in krunner (alt+space) plasmashell
[02:21] <valorie> if you want to do the whole thing in the konsole it's `kquitapp plasmashell && plasmashell &`
 @valorie, ok. I will try that next time if it happens again. The super key was not working for me though, so  I am not sure the other keys will work either. Thanks.
[02:24] <valorie> yeah, if it's the same issue I used to have
[02:24] <valorie> if not, dunno
[02:47] <Merc> isnt there a `kwin --replace` or somethign
[02:49] <valorie> maybe?
[02:49] <valorie> I thought that was for using another window manager
[02:50] <valorie> which I have never done
[03:09] <Merc> it is
[03:09] <Merc> but, presumably, it would unload kwin and reload it
[04:00] <dahlia> I'm running do-release-upgrade, wish me luck!
[04:19] <valorie> dahlia: luck!
[04:19] <valorie> usually works perfectly, depending on what you are upgrading to what
[04:21] <dahlia> valorie: kubuntu 16.04 to (I hope) 18.04
[04:21] <dahlia> and ty :)
[04:21] <valorie> that should be fine
[04:22] <dahlia> seems to be working so far
[06:02] <DarwinElf> i want Kubuntu to stop reducing my monitor's brightness when I start Konsole
[06:08] <Bronami> Hello guys
[06:35] <jaafar> Anyone else experiencing network problems after resume on 18.10?
[06:36] <k_sze[work]> I just installed kubuntu-desktop and kubuntu-full on my existing Ubuntu 18.04 installation.
[06:36] <k_sze[work]> I'm completely new to KDE
[06:36] <k_sze[work]> But is there a keyboard shortcut to maximise a window?
[06:36] <k_sze[work]> In GNOME, it used to be special + up
[06:37] <k_sze[work]> But special + up bumps a window to the top half of the screen in KDE.
[06:40] <valorie> k_sze[work]: there is a list of shortcuts in systemsettings somewhere
[06:40] <valorie> what I usually do is alt+space (krunner) and type what I want
[06:40] <valorie> in this case shortcuts
[06:40] <valorie> and see what it gives me
[06:41] <k_sze[work]> And where do I get input methods?
[06:41] <k_sze[work]> I need to type Chinese and Japanese sometimes.
[06:41] <valorie> I'd try the same thing
[06:41] <k_sze[work]> Can't find those in system settings, unlike in GNOME>
[06:41] <valorie> should be there somewhere
[06:42] <valorie> yup
[06:44] <k_sze[work]> eh
[06:44] <k_sze[work]> Am I supposed to install ibus-qt4?
[06:45] <k_sze[work]> brb, rebooting
 @k_sze[work], If you click the icon in the window header, choose more actions, special window settings,  arrangement and settings, you may find what you need.
[06:55] <dahlia> I finished upgrade, but the display didn't work. I installed latest nvidia drivers and it came back, but it comes up in fluxbox instead of kde when I log in. Is there some command to change that?
[06:55] <k_sze[work]> I just tried switching to sddm as the display manager, but it just gives me a black screen with the mouse cursor after I try to login.
[06:55] <k_sze[work]> What could be wrong?
 @k_sze[work], The solution may require doing something with nomodeset.
[07:01] <coderphive> Are the ubuntu update servers broken?
[07:02] <coderphive> looks like us.archive.ubuntu.com is throwing up
[07:03] <coderphive> 91.189.91.23
[07:03] <coderphive> That badboy is responding horribly
[07:17] <k_sze[work]> It seems that I can get ibus working
[07:18] <k_sze[work]> but ibus doesn't auto start.
[07:20] <jaafar> coderphive: very slow bandwidth from there rn
[07:20] <jaafar> oh suddenly it woke back up
[07:39] <valorie> I was downloading updates whilst disconnected from IRC and it was ssssssssssssssssssso slow
[07:40] <Merc> yeah im updating kubuntu right now and its slow as heck
[07:55] <Guest49765> how do i fix this https://paste.pound-python.org/show/YvsHDZY5NZ5ZSVo8VEnm/ https://paste.pound-python.org/show/0L3ptu39ShQgB4XcQTAX/
[07:57] <acheronuk> LP: #1797557
[07:57] <acheronuk> known bug with a workaround ^^
[08:01] <Guest49765> https://paste.pound-python.org/show/D1XkM7zhwegCb4HLGxZk/
[08:02] <Guest49765> apt remove libc6-armhf-cross    didnt work, it still errors
[08:24] <DarwinElf> i want Kubuntu to stop reducing my monitor's brightness when I start Konsole
[08:24] <mobile_c> DarwinElf: then something is horribly wrong lmao
[08:29] <DarwinElf> ok
[08:51] <lordievader> Good morning
[09:01] <dahlia> OK so after i did do-release-upgrade, first no display and I had to reinstall nvidia drivers. Then it came up in fluxbox after I logged in and I fixed that by uninstalling fluxbox (I had it to use with vncserver but I guess it messed up the upgrade). After that it seems to work :)
[09:01] <dahlia> so far....
[12:51] <BluesKaj> Hi folks
[20:00] <valorie> good to hear, dahlia
[20:00] <valorie> love your nick
[20:39] <dahlia> valorie: thanks. <3 yours too :)

[20:46] <valorie> so all honor to my mother for that one
[20:46] <valorie> :-)
