[06:06] <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?
[06:07] <nekoseam> Yes I have fiddled with the settings and it IS on auto-connect
[06:56] <lordievader> Good morning

[11:20] <justxux> Hi, I'm interested, will Kubuntu project use only LTS Plasma for the LTS realease?
[11:27] <Admiral[m]> Hello. Is there packages for network manager wireguard?
[11:28] <Admiral[m]> That allows me to use the NM GUI wireguard? Also how to import multiple wireguard configurations
[11:44] <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.
[12:21] <BluesKaj> Hi folks
[12:47] <Admiral[m]> Yeah where can I get the plugin?
[12:47] <Admiral[m]> Should I compile it myself?
[13:32] <Admiral[m]> Also where do I report bugs about network manager? Is it distro specific?
[13:34] <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
[13:38] <Admiral[m]> I asked as zanijwa
[13:38] <Admiral[m]> *zanijwa
[13:42] <BluesKaj> Admiral[m], i had to reboot so I can't scroll up
[13:43] <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
[13:44] <Admiral[m]> Is this a problem on my machine? can anyone else reproduce
[13:44] <Admiral[m]> BluesKaj:
[13:46] <BluesKaj> Admiral[m] don't think wireguard works with network-manager yet '
[13:49] <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?
[13:55] <BluesKaj> Admiral[m], recommend you ask in #wireguard chat , it's not supported in (k)ubuntu yet
[13:57] <Admiral[m]> no I mean wg works just fine. where do you ask questions about the network manager? Is it common across all distros?
[14:27] <BluesKaj> yes
[14:27] <BluesKaj> Admiral[m],^
[14:34] <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.
[14:48] <koftes> hello
[14:49] <BluesKaj> hi koftes
[14:50] <koftes> hey BluesKaj
[14:53] <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).
[14:57] <BluesKaj> koftes, on which device do you have your DNS set up ?
[14:58] <koftes> BluesKaj: that's a good question
[14:58] <BluesKaj> are you at work or?
[14:59] <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]
[15:00] <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).
[15:01] <BluesKaj> koftes, I assume this is either a work or school network ?
[15:02] <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.
[15:03] <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
[15:06] <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.
[15:07] <Admiral[m]> how do you know if the problem you're reporting is a bug or a feature request
[15:08] <BluesKaj> koftes, most likely your phone so perhaps you should research your phone connectivity
[15:11] <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.
[15:12] <BluesKaj> koftes, use kdeconnect on your pc and phone
[15:13] <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
[15:16] <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.
[15:20] <BluesKaj> !3G
[15:20] <BluesKaj> !info 3G
[15:21] <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
[15:22] <koftes> Sorry, I guess it's a 4G connection now. I meant mobile data in general.
[15:22] <koftes> osmo: not installed
[15:24] <koftes> I'm using KDE, btw
[15:26] <BluesKaj> osmo-sgsn and osmo-mgw
[15:27] <BluesKaj> not installed by default , but available in the repos
[15:29] <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?
[15:30] <BluesKaj> !dnsmasq
[15:30] <koftes> BluesKaj: what would be the intention with those packages?
[15:30] <BluesKaj> !info dnsmasq
[15:31] <BluesKaj> koftes, look in your package manager/discover for details
[15:34] <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"?
[15:40] <koftes> I'll switch to the other connection again for testing , so there's a (good) chance I'll disconnect
[15:44] <BluesKaj> koftes, Ican only suggest since I have no experience with remote phone to pc connections over 3G or the internet
[15:46] <koftes> I think this may have actually worked
[15:54] <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.
[15:56] <koftes> I don't know why I never figured this out before. I've had this problem for ages.
[15:58] <koftes> In any case, thanks for the help BluesKaj
