[10:47] <BluesKaj> Hi folks
 Does anyone know how to log in?
 (Photo, 1280x801) https://irc-attachments.kde.org/ky5406Hz/file_15246.jpg Buenas, alguien sabe como iniciar sesión ahí?
 I have tried putting the password and pressing enter but it does not do anything
 Is that a live boot?
 No
 I have seen that login screen before, but it's been a long time.  What version of Kubunutu?
 19.04
 I have updated the system and it has appeared like this
 I can't log in
 Any idea?
[15:03] <NoDroid> Hello, I'm trying to install Kubuntu 19.04. Downloaded the ISO, verified it, it successfully verified. When booting to the live environment, initramfs tries mounting but there's a I/O error. Just before I had it mounting, it asked which screen, but I picked the wrong screen, so I restarted the process.
[15:05] <NoDroid> I'd like to add that also, after the initial screen choice, I turned on the tv to see the options, and the screen had horizontal lines in erroneous fashion.
[15:06] <NoDroid> What should I do next?
[15:12] <BluesKaj> NoDroid, without trying to boot the device in the efi/bios check dolphin to see if the media has boot files listed
[15:15] <NoDroid> mounting the USB drive on this laptop, the files are listed.
[15:17] <BluesKaj> NoDroid, is the laptop where you want to install kubuntu?
[15:17] <NoDroid> EFI > BOOT > shows BOOTx64.EFI grubx64.efi mmx64.efi
[15:17] <NoDroid> no
[15:19] <NoDroid> My SSD got corrupted trying to install kubuntu. So after that happened, I got rid of the image, re-downloaded, and used dd to copy the image to the same USB key which it successfully verified.
[15:19] <NoDroid> Maybe I'll try to verify it again.
[15:19] <BluesKaj> does it boot in the laptop ?
[15:20] <NoDroid> I don't know
[15:20] <NoDroid> Guess I could try
[15:20] <NoDroid> but it might mess this up as well.
[15:20] <NoDroid> then I won't have a device to use. I'll try anyway
[15:20] <NoDroid> brb
[15:20] <BluesKaj> that's one way to check the image is ok, just don't install
[15:28] <NoDroid> it booted.
[15:28] <NoDroid> I tried a different USB port, and it also booted on my desktop. O.o
[15:28] <NoDroid> BluesKaj: ^^
[15:31] <DarinMiller> noDroid I have seen strange USB boot behavior on one of my laptops also.  After install the supsect USB port works fine.  I suspect a weird BIOS issue.
[15:33] <BluesKaj> so you're in business, NoDroid
[15:46] <NoDroid> Okay, successfully installed. Just updating/upgrading now. xD
[15:46] <NoDroid> That was weird.
[15:48] <BluesKaj> NoDroid, it's not unusual, i've had the same problem with some usb ports
[15:50] <NoDroid> Thanks for the help. :)
[16:28] <BluesKaj> belated, yw :-)
[17:28] <Greenfrog> When trying to delete a background file from vanity i get this error message Deleting to trash failed because no suitable program is installed. Please install gvfs (gvfs-bin), trash-cli, or konqueror.
[17:29] <Greenfrog>  konqueror is installed
[18:07] <murthy> how to set system wide dns ip
[18:07] <murthy> My router doesn't provide option to change the dns server
[18:15] <diogenes_> murthy, with dnsmasq probably.
[18:17] <murthy> diogenes_: I saw that in one post, does that work?
[18:19] <diogenes_> murthy, for me it works perfectly and i got actually a better insternet speed and stability with dnsmasq than with the dfault resolver.
[18:20] <murthy> diogenes_: ok I will try that
[18:28] <murthy> diogenes_: I tried the solution given in this page and it didn't work https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/128220/how-do-i-set-my-dns-when-resolv-conf-is-being-overwritten/163506#163506
[18:29] <diogenes_> murthy, no no, it need a lot more tweaking, i will show you what i did but first undo this sudo chattr +i /etc/resolv.conf (if you did)
[18:29] <diogenes_> that's no good
[18:30] <murthy> I didn't do that
[18:30] <murthy> I installed dnsmasq
[18:30] <murthy> then
[18:30] <diogenes_> then?
[18:31] <murthy> I added two lines "server=8.8.8.8" and  "server=8.8.4.4" to /etc/dnsmasq.conf
[18:31] <murthy> then restarted the dnsmasq service and then the network manager service
[18:31] <murthy> It didn't work
[18:31] <murthy> so I reverted the changes made
[18:31] <diogenes_> no no, as i said it needs a lot more tweaks so wait a moment i will give you.
[18:32] <murthy> ok
[18:32] <murthy> firefox works with dns over https
[18:35] <diogenes_> murthy, here: http://dpaste.com/3PM2H2G
[18:36] <diogenes_> if you are not that familiar with vi then inststead of sudo vi use sudo nano or any other text editor that you are familiar with.
[18:42] <murthy> diogenes_: can you confirm line 14 is duplicate
[18:43] <diogenes_> murthy, looks like that.
[18:43] <murthy> ok
[18:49] <murthy> diogenes_: 38 line doesn't work, I am getting this , "bash: /etc/resolv.conf.head: Permission denied"
[18:50] <murthy> the command used is sudo echo "nameserver 127.0.0.1" > /etc/resolv.conf.head
[18:50] <diogenes_> murthy, check and see if that file actually exists, some files don't usually exist so you need first to create them.
[18:50] <murthy> ok
[18:51] <murthy> it doesn't exit
[18:51] <murthy> I will create one
[18:52] <murthy> brb
[18:52] <diogenes_> to create it just run: sudo touch /etc/resolv.conf.head
[18:53] <diogenes_> then: sudo echo "nameserver 127.0.0.1" > /etc/resolv.conf.head
[19:10] <Guest66124> good evening
[19:10] <Guest66124> is the activity high
[19:11] <diogenes_> hi, moderately.
[19:13] <murthy> diogenes_: I already did "sudo touch /etc/resolv.conf.head" and the file was created but still I am getting "bash: /etc/resolv.conf.head: Permission denied"
[19:14] <diogenes_> murthy, ok then just do: sudo nano /etc/resolv.conf.head
[19:14] <diogenes_> and put in there: nameserver 127.0.0.1
[19:14] <diogenes_> save, close.
[19:15] <murthy> diogenes_: worked
[19:17] <murthy> diogenes_: on line 42 prepend is an instruction to the user or its part of the file?
[19:17] <murthy> btw /etc/dhclient.conf is empty
[19:19] <diogenes_> it should literally be: prepend domain-name-servers 127.0.0.1;
[19:19] <murthy> ok
[19:19] <murthy> then the contents of the file would be "
[19:19] <murthy> prepend domain-name-servers 127.0.0.1;"
[19:20] <diogenes_> without quotes
[19:21] <murthy> ya
[19:23] <murthy> diogenes_: I am using ipv4 should I change line 54 and 56?
[19:24] <diogenes_> yes
[19:30] <murthy> diogenes_: the 54 line would be "sudo vi /etc/NetworkManager/dnsmasq.d/ipv4_listen.conf"
[19:30] <murthy> diogenes_: what would be 56 line?
[19:31] <murthy> diogenes_: what would be the listen-address ?
[19:32] <diogenes_> it's you need to write this: listen-address=::1 in /etc/NetworkManager/dnsmasq.d/ipv4_listen.conf
[19:32] <diogenes_> wait
[19:33] <diogenes_> it's not /etc/NetworkManager/dnsmasq.d/ipv4_listen.conf it's /etc/NetworkManager/dnsmasq.d/ipv6_listen.conf
[19:33] <diogenes_> you wrote ipv4 and it should be ipv6
[19:34] <murthy> even if I use ipv4 address?
[19:34] <diogenes_> yes
[19:34] <murthy> ok
[19:37] <murthy> diogenes_: going to reboot
[19:37] <diogenes_> ok
[19:40] <murthy> diogenes_: hi
[19:41] <murthy> diogenes_: how to check if I am using 8.8.8.8 as dns server
[19:41] <diogenes_> murthy, cat /etc/resolv.conf
[19:41] <diogenes_> if it returns: nameserver 127.0.0.1
[19:41] <diogenes_> then you're good to go.
[19:42] <murthy> diogenes_: it says "nameserver 127.0.0.53"
 i've tried today the last stable from kdenlive 19.XX. is really sh*** and they damaged all the good things in it. They force me to comeback to the finalcut and camtasia.
[19:44] <diogenes_> murthy, then it's either you have missed something from that tutorial or our trick didn't work.
[19:46] <murthy> diogenes_: ok
[19:50] <murthy> made one case change in a file, going to reboot
[20:00] <murthy> diogenes_: can you share the contents of your /etc/dhclient.conf   ?
[20:01] <diogenes_> murthy, sure, it's only one line: prepend domain-name-servers 127.0.0.1;
[20:02] <murthy> diogenes_: ok
[20:04] <keithzg-M> Hmmm, I wonder why when SDDM goes wrong on my 18.04 install, restarting the service gets it back in a different state (have to enter username manually too, rather than having the carousel to choose the user) than a fresh boot does.
[20:09] <NoCode> What's the average / size of kubuntu?
[20:11] <bprompt> NoCode:   depends on the version, I run 16.04 and the original install was about 9gbs IIRC
[20:12] <bprompt> the install image is just a little over 1gb
[20:12] <airsoftmodels> i just installed 19.04 yesterday and its 17gb
[20:12] <diogenes_> no way
[20:13] <bprompt> 17gbs sounds like a stretch
[20:13] <bprompt> I recall my 18.04 install was around 10gbs I think
[20:13] <airsoftmodels> well, i just took the size of my ssd minus free space
[20:13] <airsoftmodels> i did updates
[20:14] <airsoftmodels> but havent added anything really
[20:14] <diogenes_> it also listes your data from documents, downloads music etc.
[20:15] <airsoftmodels> yeah, but i didn't put anything on there.
[20:15] <airsoftmodels> no docs, no downloads, no music
[20:15] <airsoftmodels> are your running 19.04?
[20:16] <diogenes_> no
[20:16] <airsoftmodels> ok.  well i just dl it yesterday night
[20:16] <NoCode> Well ... my root partition is set to 28 gb (used this size for gnome-3, and 2 other variants), and I've used up 26.66 gb of data on the partition. That's with a /home partition as well.
[20:17] <NoCode> Like a separate /home partition
[20:17] <NoCode> I dunno how the hell this has happened.
[20:17] <NoCode> It just doesn't make sense
[20:18] <airsoftmodels> i buy an 256gb ssd for each distro i want to run
[20:18] <airsoftmodels> currently have 5 of them.
[20:19] <bprompt> NoCode:    you're running 19.04 and it ballooned to 28gbs? is that it?
[20:19] <NoCode> yep
[20:19] <NoCode> My friend said a base install should be 4 gb.
[20:19] <bprompt> NoCode:    I'm guessing cache files.... apt's cache, do a -> sudo apt-get clean;  to toss any downloaded .deb files
[20:20] <bprompt> NoCode:    base install of 4gbs?   doubt that, my 16.04 was around 9gbs
[20:22] <airsoftmodels> i am really happy with 19.04 so far.  i am coming from mint
[20:24] <NoCode> I'm not sure but I'm gonna go back to 18.04.
[20:25] <bprompt> I installed 18.04 but broke some things, so I fixed them and then broke some more, whilst in 16.04 all my apps work peachy, I could take the time to have 18.04 working and all, just shouldn't have so many apps going south, at leas the apps I use, and 18.04 is LTS, 19.04 isn't
[20:26] <airsoftmodels> i agree
[20:26] <airsoftmodels> same with mint, a new version borks my emulators
[20:35] <questions_> my task panel is stuck, it does not show the right applications that are running it shows one that is no longer running when I click on one icon, it will open another applicition
[20:45] <NoDroid> Yeah, something is definitely wrong. No idea why my installation ballooned. This Manjaro installation, with only the basics installed. I only installed a couple things, is only 10.34 gb.
[20:45] <NoDroid> Maybe I'll try getting rid of my /home partition to see if that is it.
[20:46] <NoDroid> and just do a basic install.
[20:55] <mparillo> I have 8 Kubuntu VMs totaling 60GB. So, on average less than 8GB per. None were minimal installs, and I admit none have significant data, nor years of apt updates, but there are eight data points.
[20:58] <NoDroid> Okay, so /var/log has 22 G of data. LOL
[21:25] <tadej_> hi
[21:26] <tadej_> Have you tried jovie (TTS program)
[21:27] <tadej_> Have you tried jovie (TTS program) for speaking text?
[22:15] <usuario> ...
[22:18] <valorie> NoDroid: I had my home filling up over and over again after being up for a few weeks, and doing a few major updates
[22:19] <valorie> when I finally restarted, it's now tiny
[22:19] <valorie> since I had moved everything of any size to my data drive
[22:48] <NoCode> So I deleted those log files, and my installation on / is only 5.57 GB so far. Helluva lot better than 25 GB.
[22:51] <valorie> aha, you were out of the channel, NoCode
[22:51] <valorie> I said before:
[22:51] <valorie> NoDroid: I had my home filling up over and over again after being up for a few weeks, and doing a few major updates
[22:52] <valorie> when I finally restarted, it's now tiny
[22:52] <valorie> since I had moved everything of any size to my data drive
[22:53] <valorie> home is now 840 MiB
[22:58] <NoCode>  /home wasn't the issue. It's on a separate partition. my /root partition was the issue, but it was the logs that caused the issue. And I'm still laughing about it.
[22:58] <NoCode> 22 G of text files? Yes please!
[23:27] <questions_> does kde work well with nvidia cards ?
[23:28] <NoCode> I'm using a 950 atm
[23:29] <NoCode> haven't played a game yet
[23:29] <NoCode> I'm sure it works well.
