(if something does not work, write to private messages) [02:05] @Olivia Lane that's not how this works [02:05] you have entered a help channel and anything else is off-topic [02:08] uuhh [02:48] ... I have being ahving issues with a Kubuntu install on an AMD system having exesively slow startup times... an abandone bug... [02:55] times vary, from 1 minute 16 seconds to 8 minutes... [03:10] baltazar: press escape, see where it hangs [03:10] baltazar: also run (and read man pages of): systemd-analyze critical chain; systemd-analyze blame [03:20] hi. is there an issue with KOrganizer reminders in 19.04? fresh install. I have been using KOrganizer for over a decade and I think they've always been unreliable, but I've never seen 5 fail straight. it looks like all reminders are failing to trigger. all set to display a dialog box (the default). [03:25] I have... even tried to get some of the fixes that were mention regarding haveged ... I just gave up on it and tried to install in an slightly different manner... which is a bit counter intuitive. I just disabled AHCI and reinstalled... but times suck considering I have an SSD... 1.06 minutes... or more. [03:36] hmmm, I guess I would ask in #kontact about korganizer [03:36] baltazar: that startup does sound really slow [03:38] also disabling AHCI sounds just wrong [03:38] and the issue which some tried to work around using haveged should long be fixed [03:39] but then we don't know what / which version you're actually trying to install [04:10] I have Kubuntu 18.04.2 ... fresh install... and yes, this issue has not been actually fixed. The one thing about that bug is that it seems to affect AMD hardware since my Intel machine with the same version of Kubuntu starts fast. [04:15] Also... the bug report is not clear as to an actual fix. [06:02] Good morning [06:24] hey. does anybody know where exactly can i send a bugreport about 19.04? [06:24] !bugs | Snt [06:24] Snt: 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. [06:25] 10x [06:28] https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/Bug_Reporting [06:29] too complicated. is there any simple way? [06:33] Snt: It would seem you missed the advice I had the bot put for you above? [06:35] i have seen it, thank you. it is too complicated way. i am a casual linux user [06:37] Ah ok, because you linked a totally different guide, and that also isn't linked on the page that the bot referred you to. [06:38] i have read your page first [06:39] after that googled and find another page https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/Bug_Reporting [06:39] so tried them both [06:39] Also, I'm not particularly sure what'd be so complicated about 1.) creating a Launchpad account and 2.) running "ubuntu-bug " [06:42] // [06:42] // [06:42] well. anyway. if someone from the developers' team reads this IRC log, [06:42] non-technical person. not much experiense with linux.

[09:49] @Snt, Mught it be that you have not installed the VirtualBox guest editions (kind of the drivers for the virtual machine)? [09:53] Hi Linuxophil, yes i think guest additions is an option (dunno why) in the VB/VM. It should be default. [09:53] err editions [09:55] @BluesKaj, I agree completely. They should be included on every major distros isos. I think the distros do themselves a disservice by not including them by default. Most new users don't know what's missing and just think that the distro they try is not performing well. Have even seen youtubers coming to that conclusion. [09:55] it is additions, not editions [09:57] @BluesKaj, Lol! Yes, you are so very correct sir! (/me going into the corner and lower my head in shame) [09:58] no need to be shamed, lots of us make that mistake [10:00] I've only used VB a couple of times and found it lacking, so i don't bother with VMs anymore . Also tried kvm/qemu with the same result [10:02] i just bought another hdd and used that in a dual boot system for a while, but ai eventually dumped windows altogether and stuck with linux OSs on both drives [10:04] @BluesKaj, Well, but for just having a go with a new iteration of a known system, it is very convenient. [10:06] We all find methods and uses that suit our needs and wants.i was merely telling about mine :-) === chealer_ is now known as chealer [10:55] (re-asking) Is there an issue with KOrganizer reminders in 19.04? I use a fresh install. I have been using KOrganizer for over a decade and I think they've always been unreliable, but I've never seen 5 fail straight. it looks like all reminders are failing to trigger. They are all set to display a dialog box (the default). [11:11] @Snt, Mught it be that you have not installed the VirtualBox guest editions (kind of the drivers for the virtual machine)? [11:11] Hi Linuxophil, yes i think guest additions is an option (dunno why) in the VB/VM. It should be default. [11:11] negative on that [11:11] my case is about vmware. not virtualbox [11:12] second. all modern *buntu come with open-vmware tools inside [11:13] third. i tried to work with two different vmware tools versions - tools from ubuntu, and tools from vmware itself, and then without tools at all [11:13] did not help [11:13] Snt, ok, wasn't aware vmware was open source on linux [11:14] i have installed ubuntu-mate, kubuntu, lubuntu and xubuntu. the problem is in kubuntu only [11:14] BluesKaj> Snt, ok, wasn't aware vmware was open source on linux -- tools only. vmware is still costs money [11:16] ahh === Lord_of_Life_ is now known as Lord_of_Life [12:21] @EEElton Disabling Baloo was enough? [12:21] @jorgetech_spacebiker, I'm not sure. [12:22] It still a little slow when doing basic tasks. [12:22] The desktop effects sometimes takes some time to respond and so on. [12:23] If your computer is fast enough maybe it's a semi-faulty drive or filesystem problem [12:24] @EEElton, It should be fast enough. [12:24] And the SMART status of the drive, shows that's it's okay. [12:26] When I was transferring files to the hard drive, it was pretty slow [12:26] As a last resort you could try a file system check in case it has inconsistencies. If not I don't have a clue, it could be a bad drive (bad in the sense of low performance) [12:28] EEElton, could you pastebin the SMART values? [12:29] An i7 with a recent enogh AMD should smoke Kubuntu. As a comparison I have a Xeon E5450 with 4 GB DDR3 RAM and Radeon R5 230, it is very smooth [12:29] I.e. output of `sudo smartctl -a /dev/`? === daniel is now known as Guest72607 [14:00] привіт! [14:01] Hello! I need help! :) === himcesjf_ is now known as him-cesjf [14:26] Hi guys, I need help installing an Epson TM-T20II printer on Kununtu 18.04. I downloaded the drivers from this page (https://www.epson-biz.com/modules/pos/index.php?page=single_soft&cid=3731) but after I installed the printer does not print... [14:57] Someone??? [14:58] viewer|78, afaik, epson printers on linux are notvery well supported [14:58] @lordievader, I'm gonna try sharing the SMART VALUES [15:13] (Photo, 1137x978) https://irc-attachments.kde.org/4X4HFtFt/file_14927.jpg That's the SMART data for the hard disk. i'll send a screenshot of the system monitor. What this tells me mostly is that there shouldn't be anything major wrong with the hard drive. Yet when i was transferring files to it, the entire system was very slow. Even after transferring files, desktop effects would get slow and the like. [15:13] (Photo, 898x897) https://irc-attachments.kde.org/F0bhBr5N/file_14928.jpg The system menu, I'm barely using the system resources, and yet desktop effects can be quite slow. Some apps fail to open either, or close. VLC for instance. [15:37] I think I'm doing something wrong when I'm installing it... [15:38] Hello Regarding Kaffeine [15:38] Kubuntu show it twice a discovered network printers, but I'm not entirely sure what I need to write in address/queue... [15:39] viewer|78, use the compters IP address on the network [15:39] computer's [15:40] that the printer is connected to [15:40] I config the printer to use 192.168.0.25, but what I put on queue? and how do I write the address? ldp://192.168.0.25??? [15:40] I have successfully installed Kaffeine on my Kubuntu 18.04 and after the usual procedere to fetch the channels I have to say a lot are missing. Not a single mention of Swiss TV, not of several German stations. [15:41] When I change back to the 14.04 version I have no problems at all the get these channels. It looks to me, the Station list is still stone old. [16:11] Cool, I installed using socket://192.168.0.25 but it only send blank pages :@ [16:11] EEElton: 16 bad sectors suggests the disk may die sooner than you'd normally expect. it doesn't have to, but that's not ideal after 1.5y of operation. but you're fine with recent, complete and proven restorable backups. you should review your system journal next (journalctl -b) [16:20] good afternoon - is this the right place to ask about 19.04 issues? === ca_cabot is now known as Guest25388 [16:48] I'm running into a crash but I'm not sure how to start to troubleshoot [16:50] If I close a window the fall apart animation runs. If I then immediately switch desktops (which invokes the cube animation) I get a crash [16:52] I would report it since the Developer Information tab indicates the crash information is useful, but the Report Bug button is disabled [16:55] I'm not finding much on the web except intel graphics driver bugs from 2015 [16:55] What's the best course of action for me to take? === ca_cabotage is now known as Guest56838 === ca_cabotage is now known as Guest14077 === ca_cabot is now known as Guest77469 === wodencafe is now known as wODeNCaFE [19:15] AlphetaCS, system settings>hardware>display&monitor>compositor>set OpenGL to 3.1 [19:15] . [19:16] Where is the right place to get help with dual boot problems specifically that the kubuntu installer doesn't see windows and just offers to use the whole disk or manual, even when there is empty space for an installation alongside win. [19:16] Thanks BluesKaj, I made this adjustment and I'll see how it goes [19:18] AlphetaCS, assuming your computer is less tha 2 yrs old and can handle the graphical settings above [19:18] BluesKaj, i7 4th gen, 32gb ram, ssd drive - it should be fine [19:18] yup === wODeNCaFE is now known as wodencafe [19:22] bauchhaus, use manual partitioning and set the mountpoint for / (root) on the space/partition beside windows as ext4 then proceed with the installation [19:26] bauchhaus, make sure the space beside windows is a partition. You may have to gparted in your USB or disc to create that partition first before doing the above [19:27] *use gparted [19:28] BluesKaj: that's what I did, now I can't boot into windows any more. [19:28] uptade-grub doesn't see the windows partition [19:31] bauchhaus, think you need to install grub to the /boot/efi partition created by windows [19:32] it should be about 512 mb [19:32] fat32 [19:35] you may need to unmount it first [19:37] i have a fat32 partiton with boot/efi, i tried to install grub to the whole disk or that partition both same issue, no more windows. [19:38] bauchhaus, suggest you ask in ##linux chat, there are grub and efi experts there [19:39] BluesKay: it's the first partition on the nvme01 drive [19:39] I think I should post it in a forum and then point to this, as it's a complex issue and i already tried so many things [19:39] yes bauchhaus, I suggest you ask in the ##linux chat [19:40] ok [19:41] I think I'm missing something in my method, they'll help you restore grub with windows listed === esa1975_ is now known as esa1975 === esa1975_ is now known as esa1975 [21:00] BluesKaj: i posted it here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1136515/ubuntu-installer-and-grub-dont-see-windows-installation [21:27] @EEElton, Apps failing to open could indicate a more serious issue related to the hard drive or file system === ca_cabotage is now known as Guest54295 === ca_cabot is now known as Guest60058 === ca_cabotage is now known as Guest97477 === max__ is now known as Guest97960 [23:20] ребята всем привет, пользуюсь убунтой много впремени, однако столкнулся с непонятной до селе проблемой, с установкой oracle java [23:20] os : Linux FBook 5.0.0-13-generic #14-Ubuntu SMP Mon Apr 15 14:59:14 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux [23:21] добавил репо : sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java\ [23:21] обновил пакеты , sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-installer - выдает кандедт на установку не найден [23:22] ктонибуть подскажите куда копать ? [23:25] hey all, i've recently had an issue on kubuntu 19.04 where the system text is tiny.
