nekoseam | Hey so after login it takes the internet either a very long time to connect or won't connect at all. I usually just simply press "disconnect" and reconnect and it fixes it and connects instantly | 06:06 |
---|---|---|
nekoseam | it's still kind of annoying doing that. Any way to fix it? | 06:06 |
nekoseam | Yes I have fiddled with the settings and it IS on auto-connect | 06:07 |

justxux | Hi, I'm interested, will Kubuntu project use only LTS Plasma for the LTS realease? | 11:20 |
Admiral[m] | Hello. Is there packages for network manager wireguard? | 11:27 |
Admiral[m] | That allows me to use the NM GUI wireguard? Also how to import multiple wireguard configurations | 11:28 |
justxux | In version 5.15 plasma | 11:44 |
justxux | Plasma now offers support for WireGuard VPN tunnels when the appropriate Network Manager plugin is installed. | 11:44 |

BluesKaj | Hi folks | 12:21 |

Admiral[m] | Yeah where can I get the plugin? | 12:47 |
Admiral[m] | Should I compile it myself? | 12:47 |
Admiral[m] | Also where do I report bugs about network manager? Is it distro specific? | 13:32 |
BluesKaj | Admiral[m], you could ask in #kde chat about your issue | 13:34 |
BluesKaj | but I haven't seem your question yet | 13:34 |
BluesKaj | seen | 13:34 |
Admiral[m] | I asked as zanijwa | 13:38 |
Admiral[m] | *zanijwa | 13:38 |
BluesKaj | Admiral[m], i had to reboot so I can't scroll up | 13:42 |
Admiral[m] | Kubuntu 18.10. In the wireguard configuration of network manager, I cannot enter any hostname for the endpoint. I can only enter IPv4 addresses | 13:43 |
Admiral[m] | Is this a problem on my machine? can anyone else reproduce | 13:44 |
Admiral[m] | BluesKaj: | 13:44 |
BluesKaj | Admiral[m] don't think wireguard works with network-manager yet ' | 13:46 |
Admiral[m] | you have to compile a wireguard plugin but, ignoring wireguard working, the endpoint in wireguard configuration panel should take in hostnames and IPv6 addresses right? | 13:49 |
BluesKaj | Admiral[m], recommend you ask in #wireguard chat , it's not supported in (k)ubuntu yet | 13:55 |
Admiral[m] | no I mean wg works just fine. where do you ask questions about the network manager? Is it common across all distros? | 13:57 |
=== himcesjf_ is now known as him-cesjf | ||
BluesKaj | yes | 14:27 |
BluesKaj | Admiral[m],^ | 14:27 |
BluesKaj | Admiral[m], some vpns are still developing wireguard to work on their servers, but most aren't fully fleshed out yet, and most like to use network-manager-nameofvpnprotocol to integrate it into linux networking as a cli or gui setup, so your question is probly a bit premature. | 14:34 |
koftes | hello | 14:48 |
BluesKaj | hi koftes | 14:49 |
koftes | hey BluesKaj | 14:50 |
koftes | What could cause DNS to stop working? If I connect through a certain connection, my PC can ping IP addresses on the Internet (e.g., 8.8.8.8), but cannot resolve domains (Firefox doesn't work, or I get things like "failure resolving 'gb.archive.ubuntu.com'" when I try to get updates). | 14:53 |
BluesKaj | koftes, on which device do you have your DNS set up ? | 14:57 |
koftes | BluesKaj: that's a good question | 14:58 |
BluesKaj | are you at work or? | 14:58 |
koftes | the simple answer is that I'm not really sure what I'm doing | 14:59 |
Admiral[m] | so for filing bugs in NM, can i report to ubuntu? | 14:59 |
BluesKaj | !bugs | Admiral[m] | 14:59 |
ubottu | Admiral[m]: If you find a bug in Kubuntu, please follow the instructions at https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Bugs/Reporting to report the issue to the developers. | 14:59 |
koftes | No. So more details: I have a Kubuntu PC that connects through my home router/modem, and that works as normal (DNS is probably on the modem). | 15:00 |
BluesKaj | koftes, I assume this is either a work or school network ? | 15:01 |
Admiral[m] | Is 'Connections' the KDE front end for network manager? | 15:02 |
Admiral[m] | other distros would have their own front ends for NM right? | 15:02 |
koftes | I also have an Android phone that can connect to the Internet (either through my home WiFi or 3G). When I tether the PC to the phone by USB, I get a wired connection, I can ping 8.8.8.8, but domains cannot be resolved. | 15:02 |
koftes | BluesKaj: it's my home network. | 15:03 |
BluesKaj | koftes, most likely the router , try 192.168.0.1 in your browser addressbar to open the router firmware | 15:03 |
koftes | BluesKaj: well, the problem is when I'm connecting by tethering through my phone. So the problem is either on my PC or the phone rather than the router. | 15:06 |
Admiral[m] | how do you know if the problem you're reporting is a bug or a feature request | 15:07 |
BluesKaj | koftes, most likely your phone so perhaps you should research your phone connectivity | 15:08 |
koftes | BluesKaj: I was inclined to think it's the PC because I've set up a (wireless) hotspot on my phone in the past that friends' phones were able to connect to; but my PC could not get any data from my phone's hotspot. | 15:11 |
BluesKaj | koftes, use kdeconnect on your pc and phone | 15:12 |
koftes | I guess at this point I'm trying to identify what/where the problem is (before trying to fix it), so my question really is what could I do to figure out where the problem is. | 15:13 |
koftes | BluesKaj: reading about KDE Connect now | 15:13 |
BluesKaj | first, what are you really trying to do, that's the real question | 15:13 |
koftes | BluesKaj: my ultimate goal is to connect my PC through my 3G data (which my provider is OK with btw), so I can work away from home in places where there are no or insecure connections. | 15:16 |
BluesKaj | !3G | 15:20 |
BluesKaj | !info 3G | 15:20 |
ubottu | Package 3G does not exist in bionic | 15:20 |
BluesKaj | !osmo | 15:21 |
koftes | Btw, from a first read, KDE Connect seems like an overkill for what I'm trying to do and the kind of thing that might open up other security issues. | 15:21 |
BluesKaj | koftes, search for osmo in your package manager | 15:21 |
koftes | Sorry, I guess it's a 4G connection now. I meant mobile data in general. | 15:22 |
koftes | osmo: not installed | 15:22 |
koftes | I'm using KDE, btw | 15:24 |
BluesKaj | osmo-sgsn and osmo-mgw | 15:26 |
BluesKaj | not installed by default , but available in the repos | 15:27 |
koftes | I'm thinking that if DNS is provided by my router on WiFi, could it be that the PC is expecting the same from the phone which is not happening? Can I manually designate DNS servers directly in Kubuntu? | 15:29 |
BluesKaj | !dnsmasq | 15:30 |
koftes | BluesKaj: what would be the intention with those packages? | 15:30 |
BluesKaj | !info dnsmasq | 15:30 |
ubottu | dnsmasq (source: dnsmasq): Small caching DNS proxy and DHCP/TFTP server. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.79-1 (bionic), package size 15 kB, installed size 72 kB | 15:30 |
BluesKaj | koftes, look in your package manager/discover for details | 15:31 |
koftes | Yeah, I can see the descriptions, but I mean why are you recommending them? Or is it more like "something to try, might work"? | 15:34 |
koftes | I'll switch to the other connection again for testing , so there's a (good) chance I'll disconnect | 15:40 |
BluesKaj | koftes, Ican only suggest since I have no experience with remote phone to pc connections over 3G or the internet | 15:44 |
koftes | I think this may have actually worked | 15:46 |
=== ErichEickmeyer is now known as Eickmeyer | ||
koftes | OK, I think I need to iron out a few things, but in principle it works. I decided to just try adding Google's DNS through Network Connections, and it seems to be working. | 15:54 |
koftes | I don't know why I never figured this out before. I've had this problem for ages. | 15:56 |
koftes | In any case, thanks for the help BluesKaj | 15:58 |
