[03:26] <YoKeSeh> Hello, I have disabled pulseaudio as it says here:
[03:26] <YoKeSeh> https://kodi.wiki/view/PulseAudio/HOW-TO:_Disable_PulseAudio_and_use_ALSA_(without_removing_PulseAudio)_for_Ubuntu
[03:26] <YoKeSeh> It is supposed that now I should have sound working with ALSA but it is not like that. How do I activate ALSA? Thank you
[04:33] <valorie> YoKeSeh: there is alsamixer, which works on the commandline
[04:33] <valorie> pretty easy to use though
[04:33] <valorie> !info alsamixer
[04:34] <valorie> hmmm
[04:34] <Unit193> It comes in alsa-utils.
[04:34] <valorie> oh right
[04:34] <valorie> which I believe is installed by default
[04:35] <valorie> so YoKeSeh, just open a konsole and type: alsamixer
[04:35] <valorie> you use your arrow keys to make it work
[04:36] <valorie> hit f1 for help once you're in there
[04:57] <YoKeSeh> Thanks, I solved it. I just wanted to use it in my application within wine so I installed winetrick and configured it from there

[17:36] <Quantos> Heya guys, is there such a thing as a big book of KUbuntu?
[17:37] <Quantos> I mean documentation for beginners in paperback
[17:37] <Quantos> My cousin wants to use KUbuntu but he's got this thing against ebooks
[17:39] <OerHeks> not sure there is one on amazon, i would stick to the online version that gets updates, and tons of blogs and sites with examples/howto's https://help.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/desktopguide/C/index.html
[17:39] <Quantos> I think I just lucked into one
[17:39] <Quantos> http://www.informit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=1757619
[17:40] <Quantos> Says it's the official book of Ubuntu
[17:40] <Quantos> Might be close enough for him
[17:40] <OerHeks> ubuntu (gnome3) give different programms than KDE
[17:40] <Quantos> Yeah, forgot about that
[17:41] <Quantos> Maybe a book on KDE then
[17:41] <Quantos> He can learn the DE first
[17:41] <OerHeks> oh, i misread, there is a kubuntu chapter..
[17:41] <Quantos> Oh, I found one in Spanish....
[17:42] <Quantos> I could always just get him a printer...
[17:46] <mparillo> There are ePubs and PDFs for all current versions at: https://kubuntu.org/support/
[17:46] <Quantos> Yeah, I see those
[17:46] <Quantos> I think he's going to be better off with a printer
[17:47] <Quantos> Gnome?  Could it be true, did Ubuntu dump Unity?
[17:47] <Quantos> Tried that a couple of times, it was just clunky as hell
[17:48] <mparillo> Yup. Unity is no longer the flagship. It is (IMHO, barely) only supported through the community. Irony is that Unity is what initially drove me to Kubuntu.
[17:48] <Quantos> Me too
[17:48] <Quantos> I'm much happier
[17:49] <Quantos> I'm pretty fond of XFCE too
[17:51] <Quantos> I did not know that you could get official installation media
[17:51] <Quantos> https://www.amazon.com/Kubuntu-18-10-Feature-Release-Desktop/dp/B07KTFM97J
[17:51] <Quantos> I might have to buy one just to have
[17:52] <Quantos> Stand it up beside my Google Cardboard
[17:52] <OerHeks> 18.10 is nearly EOL, 9 months support, so look for 19.04 .. or just plain LTS 18.04
[17:52] <mparillo> cuddlefish?
[17:53] <Quantos> I don't think fish are very cuddly
[17:53] <Quantos> Oh, I'm not after the software on it, I have USB
[17:53] <Quantos> My pc doesn't even have an ODD anymore
[17:54] <Quantos> I just want the disc
[17:54] <mparillo> Based on that alone, I doubt it is 'official' Plus the logo is old. (just to warn others lurking here).
[17:54] <Quantos> Ah
[17:54] <Quantos> So likely just burned
[17:54] <Quantos> Too bad
[17:55] <Quantos> I don't recognize the logo at all, it must be pretty old then
[17:55] <Quantos> I thought it was a new one
[17:58] <Quantos> LOL, now I'm looking for KUbuntu merchandise
[20:28] <Basstorius> {nick ssü
[20:32] <SubToPewds> hello
[20:36] <valorie> cuddlefish????
[20:36] <valorie> it was cuttlefish
[20:37] <valorie> how weird to sell such a thing
