[02:05] <volty> hi,  fresh install of kubuntu 18 // The autohiding panels keep appearing on every switch of windows. Suggest a fix?
[03:42] <cbpye> is it safe to use the Driver Manager for my NVIDIA drivers, or should I just use the packages from NVIDIA.com?
 Driver manager is typically safe.  What video card to you have?
[03:52] <cbpye> IrcsomeBot2: EVGA 960 GTX FTW
 I recommend using the Nvidia PPA and installing the latest driver from there... v415.25
 ppa link: https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa
 In case you are new to PPA, open a terminal and type:
 sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa
 Your library list should auto refresh, but if it does not, type: sudo apt-get update
 Then install the latest driver:
 sudo apt install nvidia-driver-415
[04:24] <valorie> once you update, driver manager should point to the correct one
[04:36] <cbpye> IrcsomeBot2: thanks for the PPA!
[04:43] <cbpye> woah, that was weird.  I installed those drivers from that PPA, issued a "sudo reboot" when I was satisfied that everything was truly good and done, and the computer entered a low-power state for a longer-than-expected time before just shutting down.
[05:00] <cbpye> IrcsomeBot2: This is not behaving as I expected.  lsmod | grep -i nvidia shows that no modules are loading
[05:01] <cbpye> IrcsomeBot2: furthermore, using the driver manager to change my selection always does the same thing: the window refreshes and the default (unwanted) driver is once again selected.
[05:03] <cbpye> even after attempting to use the command-line (sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall) has had no effect.
 sry, afk for awhile... you probably need the corresponding version of xorg... I appoligize for the incomplete command above, this is the correct command:
 sudo apt install nvidia-driver-415 xserver-xorg-video-nvidia-415 libnvidia-cfg1-415
[14:11] <ylel9> hello
[14:12] <jubo2> ylel9: hello
[14:12] <ylel9> jubo2: how are you
[14:39] <BluesKaj> Hi folks
[14:55] <murthy> BluesKaj: hi
[14:55] <murthy> BluesKaj: how are you
[14:56] <BluesKaj> hey murthy, fine here, and you?
[15:02] <murthy> BluesKaj: I am fine too
[15:03] <BluesKaj> murthy,  what's new with you?
[15:10] <murthy> BluesKaj: Working on artificial intelligence, object detection. Could be used with digikam
[15:11] <BluesKaj> impressive, sounds highly technical :-0
[15:11] <BluesKaj> err :-)
[18:40] <G1kjf3> Hi there, I'm having an issue getting latte-dock installed. Basically it is calling for libkf5plasma5 >=5.52.0 but I only have 5.50.0-0ubuntu1 installed. It seems they should work together since they are both coming from the official repos. Any ideas on how to fix. Pastebin:
[18:40] <G1kjf3> https://paste.debian.net/1058923/
[18:54] <BluesKaj> G1kjf3,  you might have more luck asking in #ubuntu
[19:12] <murthy> G1kjf3: My libkf5plasma5 version is 5.50.0-0ubuntu1
[19:13] <murthy> G1kjf3: I am able to install latte-dock without any issue
[19:13] <murthy> G1kjf3: I think your system is broken
[19:15] <G1kjf3> murthy: Any idea how to fix that?
[19:19] <murthy> G1kjf3: do you know how to use aptitude?
[19:20] <murthy> G1kjf3: did you use any ppa recently?
[19:20] <G1kjf3> ls
[19:21] <G1kjf3> Yeah I know how to use it
[19:21] <G1kjf3> I may found the issue
[22:10] <mobile_c> where do i find debugging symbols for gcc
[22:14] <mobile_c> as if i do gdb gcc i get 'Reading symbols from gcc...(no debugging symbols found)...done.' so im assuming valgrind wont provide usefull info without the debugging symbols
