[01:15] <R13ose> I am installing Kubuntu and at the screen with Installation type.  I want to use the entire disk but there are options to use LVM, what should I choose?
[01:17] <IrcsomeBot1> <ericadams> @Alexfrench, Another option is the backports repository. It isn't the absolute latest version of Plasma but it is newer than the 18.10 version. I'm running it without issue. https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/ubuntu/backports
[01:18] <IrcsomeBot1> <ericadams> @R13ose, My opinion is that most people do not need the complexity of LVM. It's really for raid configurations which isn't really necessary, especially on a single disk.
[01:19] <R13ose> Thanks
[01:21] <R13ose> How do I transfer the home directory from my old laptop that is wired to my new laptop that is wireless?
[01:23] <IrcsomeBot1> <ericadams> Do you have an external hard drive or large enough USB drive?
[01:23] <IrcsomeBot1> <ericadams> Or are you looking to do it over a network connection?
[01:23] <R13ose> I have a large USB drive
[01:25] <IrcsomeBot1> <ericadams> Personally, I would copy to the USB drive from the old and then to new. Network can be more work and ultimately much slower transfer speed.
[01:25] <IrcsomeBot1> <ericadams> Plus you'll have a backup on that drive
[01:32] <OerHeks> or setup a ssh service on the new laptop, and transfer with rsync
[01:34] <R13ose> Thanks
[01:38] <R13ose> If I go with usb, should I zip the home folder first or just copy the whole folder over?
[02:47] <R13ose> I am going to create a zip archive in command line. How do I zip a folder with hidden files, folders and not seeing the files and folders as this zips?

[22:35] <jaafar> Anyone notice problems with networkmanager applet after upgrading to 18.10?
[22:37] <jaafar> Specifically: after resume, recently used wireless connections change name. New name has the interface name in parenthesis, like: "Network Name (wlp110s0)" and are shown as never used
[22:37] <jaafar> and it doesn't remember their password
[22:37] <jaafar> nmcli shows the correct network names - it's just the applet that has them wrong
[22:38] <jaafar> rebooting fixes everything but is annoying to have to do
[22:42] <jaafar> brb, rebooting (guess why)
