[01:35] <user|16545> hi
[12:08] <BluesKaj> Howdy folks
[13:59] <viewer|12> hello, i have installed kubuntu 19.04 using lvm for partitioning; the question is why the system shows the boot loader menu although kubunti is the only OS installed
[14:59] <R13ose> How do I create a second desktop?

 System Settings->Workspace->Virtual Desktops
 the rows setting determines the configuration in your desktop Pager (default on Task Bar)
[21:48] <keithzg> Well shucks; I finally got around to rebooting since similarly finally enabling and installing from the backports PPA on my 18.04 LTS install here at work, and everything's borked now
[21:49] <keithzg> No system tray, no search results in the launcher or KRunner, right-clicking on the desktop does nothing----and probablyk other things I haven't noticed yet.
[21:50] <keithzg> (Among the things I hadn't noticed *until* now, apparently Freenode kicked my Matrix user out of this channel, and damned if I can convince it to let me back in, hah)
 FYI - after I removed the /etc/polkit-1/localauthority.conf.d/02-allow-colord.conf file, not only does Discover work fine, but gparted does as well (issue posted a couple of days ago here)
 profile issue?
 never run into that before...
 work machine may have sso or other auth, so maybe not possible, but would be my first check
[21:54]  * keithzg is honestly just going to try purging the backports PPA first :P
[21:56] <keithzg> Everything worked fine until installing the backports PPA, so. Not like I desperately need the latest KDE packages on this machine, really.
[21:59] <keithzg> Does plasma still log to a file somewhere? I can't seem to find one.
[22:01]  * keithzg is just gonna go with Plan A, ppa-purge
[22:07] <keithzg> Yep, that solved everything.
[22:25] <valorie> keithzg: ppa-purge is the reason I feel that using backports is safe -- you have an out if it doesn't work
[23:04] <keithzg> valorie: Yeah, quite fair, it's a nice get-out-of-jail-free card :)
[23:12] <valorie> I've tried a few PPAs where it saved my install, yeah
[23:21] <Katnip> snap and flatpak has helped too
