| TomyWork | vmware remote console installs fine on ubuntu 18.04 but not on kubuntu 18.04. analysis of its installer's logs shows that it's trying to run "update-desktop-database", which is part of a package called "desktop-file-utils", that seems to be installed by default on ubuntu, but not on kubuntu. | 09:41 |
| TomyWork | nautilus depends on it, but dolphin probably doesn't. so i guess that would be the reason why it's not on kubuntu | 09:43 |
| acheronuk | TomyWork: also needed for appimage integration allegedly, so might be worth putting in by default | 09:54 |

| TomyWork | BluesKaj, is that a script doing that? | 12:15 |
| BluesKaj | TomyWork, doing what? | 12:15 |
| TomyWork | <BluesKaj> Hi folks | 12:15 |
| BluesKaj | nope it's just a command in the server box, /amsg Hi Folks | 12:16 |
| TomyWork | amsg is frowned upon in many channels | 12:16 |
| BluesKaj | only one objected to it , that was #debian when I was messing with debian OS a few yrs ago | 12:17 |
| BluesKaj | it only applies to my listed autojoin channels | 12:19 |
| jubo2 | Had the nicest Windows 7 Professional I've ever seen. It booted with UEFI, installed Kubuntu, Kubuntu installer nuked Windows'es EFI data. There was nothing much of value there | 15:50 |
| jubo2 | 'grub-update' does not see a bootable Windows, even when windows partition is mounted | 15:51 |
| jubo2 | I did not see any big blinking red warning "Installing this will destroy existing OS'es EFI data" | 15:51 |
| pepee | this bug, or something very similar, is still present in Kubuntu 18.04: https://www.mail-archive.com/kde-bugs-dist@kde.org/msg324874.html | 15:56 |
| diogenes_ | jubo2, did you read documentation and guids and asking here before installation? | 15:56 |
| pepee | it's easy to reproduce: keep scrolling up while selecting text, at some point konsole will crash | 15:57 |
| jubo2 | diogenes_: No. Linux doesn't break Windows if they boot with BIOS | 15:57 |
| pepee | actually, doesn't seem to be the same bug... but still | 15:57 |
| diogenes_ | efi is a more tricky thing. | 15:58 |
| pepee | the crash is in the same function, though. I can provide backtrace | 15:58 |
| pepee | if anyone is interested... | 15:58 |
| jubo2 | diogenes_: There are some threads discussing something similar. Apparently I can somehow rebuild the EFI files for Windows (though none of the cases are identical with mine) | 15:59 |
| jubo2 | But first I need to download a Windows 7 Pro .iso | 15:59 |
| jubo2 | that could be tricky to find. Also got a functional Windows 7, so maybe it has media generation tool like 10 | 16:00 |

| IrcsomeBot | <bauchhaus> I also had to reinstall windows twice to get a working uefi dual boot. | 16:15 |
| IrcsomeBot | <bauchhaus> And on another machine a similar issue. | 16:15 |
| jubo2 | thanks for info bauchhaus | 16:16 |
| IrcsomeBot | <bauchhaus> Someone helped me tirelessly on the ubuntu channel. | 16:18 |
| IrcsomeBot | <bauchhaus> Even though i could not save the windows, at least thanks to this user I was understanding what's going on. | 16:19 |
| IrcsomeBot | <bauchhaus> This booting stuff can be very opaque for a user. | 16:20 |
