| Fuze | Installing kubuntu 18 and want to use Btrfs. Do SWAP, /home and / partitions make sense? | 02:30 |
| OerHeks | !partitioning | 02:32 |
| ubottu | For help with partitioning a new install see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowtoPartition | For partitioning programs, see !GParted (recommended) or !PartitionManager. Other partitioning topics include !fstab, !home, and !swap | 02:32 |
| OerHeks | i think there is a btrfs factoid too | 02:32 |
| Fuze | OerHeks: I see it mentions logical partitions but no primary partitions | 02:35 |
| Fuze | i have intermediate knowledge on partitioning just a few things I’m confused about for the manual install | 02:35 |
| Fuze | Does kubuntu to have their own partitioning documentation ? | 02:40 |
| fuze | Just joined back not sure if I missed something | 02:51 |
| fuze | I see primary are the same as extended partitions. Do I need primary if I’m using EFI? I have primary on my old PC but I think only caus it’s MBR right? | 03:50 |

| pragomer | hi. running kubuntu 19.04. How can I change the icons of firefox? https://i.imgur.com/FtjIeKw.png I changed the gtk-icons to "breeze" in system-settings, but this looks like adwaita.. Did I miss something? | 06:29 |

| IrcsomeBot | <PaulSerafini> @IrcsomeBot - Installed Kubuntu 18.04 on my new laptop and love it. I can't wait for the next LTS when available. Thanks for the hard work! 👌 | 07:48 |

| IrcsomeBot | <Sick_Rimmit> Hey thanks @PaulSerafini for that feedback, we really appreciate it | 09:28 |
| user|20085 | hello, I just installed lubuntu 19.04 on my pc and when I boot it the desktop looks like some lines as if it didn't load. but the cursor does look good | 11:25 |
| BluesKaj | Hi folks | 11:28 |
| user|20085 | hello, I just installed lubuntu 19.04 on my pc and when I boot it the desktop looks like some lines as if it didn't load. but the cursor does look good. My pc is an Intel celeron 3.06GHz and 2GB ram | 11:31 |
| diogenes_ | user|20085, lubuntu? with l or with k? | 11:32 |
| user|20085 | Kubuntu sorry | 11:32 |
| diogenes_ | so the installation went well? | 11:32 |
| user|20085 | yes, it completed successfully without errors | 11:33 |
| diogenes_ | which means it booted file in live session just after the installation was done, you rebooted and it started with the black screen? | 11:34 |
| user|20085 | Yes | 11:34 |
| user|20085 | https://www.filepicker.io/api/file/cu8C2ERR6VkafZeXnagQ?signature=904aa58ee4e48a5f14148c90677655df3fbe6d6cc70c1d16945f29a16652b49b&policy=eyJleHBpcnkiOjE1NjQwNTY1MTh9 | 11:35 |
| diogenes_ | well the 2 quick thoughts that come to mind is: 1) either you re-used the previous /home partition or 2) you was connected to the internet while installing and it pulled out some updated that your hardware didn't like. | 11:36 |
| user|20085 | So I have to reinstall it without downloading updates? | 11:37 |
| lordievader | What gpu do you have? | 11:37 |
| user|20085 | Intel celeron 3.06GHz | 11:38 |
| diogenes_ | did you use the separate /home partition that you have used previously? | 11:38 |
| lordievader | And did you overwrote a previous install, like diogenes_ suggests? | 11:38 |
| lordievader | user|20085: Could your pastebin the output of `lspci -k|grep VGA`? | 11:38 |
| user|20085 | Yes, previously had ubuntu installed | 11:39 |
| diogenes_ | bingo! | 11:39 |
| diogenes_ | now what you have to do is to create a new user and you should be fine. | 11:39 |
| BluesKaj | don't forget nomodeset, it couid help | 11:40 |
| lordievader | Or move/rename ~/.config. | 11:41 |
| user|20085 | but before installation I told him to partition it as ext4 | 11:41 |
| lordievader | `nomodeset` is a bit of a last resort when booting gives absolutely no output. This is not the case for user|20085 | 11:41 |
| diogenes_ | ^^^ | 11:41 |
| lordievader | user|20085: Actually format, or 'use as'? | 11:42 |
| user|20085 | ext4 format | 11:42 |
| BluesKaj | wth?? | 11:47 |
| lordievader | ? | 11:47 |
| user|3984 | Hi, I'm sorry, I'm the one you were helping with the black screen, I had a problem with my connection | 11:47 |
| lordievader | user|3984: Try creating a new user and see if the issue persists for that new user. | 11:48 |
| user|3984 | I just started in live mode and the same thing happens to me too, there are streaks on the screen | 11:49 |
| lordievader | Could your pastebin the output of `lspci -k|grep VGA`? | 11:49 |
| user|3984 | I don't believe, I can't use the terminal | 11:50 |
| BluesKaj | I've used separate /home partitions in the past with new installs and no issues as long as one sets the mountpoint for /home during the partioning phase and install to / | 11:51 |
| lordievader | user|3984: You can't switch to a tty? (ctrl + alt + f1) | 11:52 |
| user|3984 | Yes | 11:53 |
| BluesKaj | think f1 is reserved , try f2-f6 | 11:54 |
| lordievader | If you have an internet connection you can pipe to termbin (`<command> | nc termbin.com 9999`) and get a pastebin link. | 11:54 |
| lordievader | BluesKaj: Depends on the configuration. | 11:54 |
| BluesKaj | everything depends on configuration :-) | 11:55 |
| lordievader | There are some conventions on which to use for what. But ultimately it is left to the distro/sysadmin/user. | 11:55 |
| BluesKaj | not difficult to try f2 | 11:56 |
| user|3984 | ok i already have a terminal | 11:57 |

| user|3984 | when using the lspci command I think vga I get: VGA compatible controller: Nvidia Corporation NV11 [GeForce2 MX / MX 400] (rev b2) | 12:02 |
| BluesKaj | user|3984, did update and upgrade? | 12:04 |
| user|3984 | Yes | 12:05 |
| BluesKaj | and? | 12:05 |
| BluesKaj | any changes? | 12:05 |
| user|3984 | nothing in them | 12:05 |
| user|3984 | Could it be that my graph does not support kde? | 12:07 |
| BluesKaj | it does, the default open source driver is nouveau, unless you already had your previous OS configured with a closed source nvidia driver | 12:12 |
| user|3984 | well then problem solved, thank you all for the help | 12:13 |
| lordievader | Erm, what? | 12:15 |
| lordievader | How does this solve anything? | 12:15 |
| lordievader | Oh well, not my problem 😋 | 12:16 |
| BluesKaj | yeah | 12:16 |
| BluesKaj | they''ll come back :-) | 12:17 |
| pragomer | I have selected breeze everywhere for gtk-apps: https://i.imgur.com/jIhKiKY.png But firefox still shows these ugly bookmarks-folder-icons: https://i.imgur.com/NQluYu1.png | 13:54 |
| pragomer | any tips? | 13:54 |
| BluesKaj | pragomer, check your icon themes there | 14:01 |
| RikMills | IIRC, they are part of the Firefox linux theming, so not changed by the system gtk theme | 14:02 |
| pragomer | oh, ok. So I cannot something about this? | 14:16 |
| RikMills | not if you quit the channel | 14:24 |
| MaroonedAnchor | RikMills: lol | 14:42 |

| fuze | Does kubuntu ask for primary or logical partition even when installing in efi mode? | 17:39 |
| OerHeks | no, EFI mode can only be done on GPT, not MBR | 17:40 |
| OerHeks | if you have mbr, change it to gpt | 17:40 |
| OerHeks | kubuntu might take just 1 partition, incl swapfile | 17:42 |
| fuze | How do I change to gpt? I selected gpt only in rufus | 17:46 |
| fuze | I already installed windows 10 | 17:47 |
| OerHeks | then, i guess, if you have mbr on that windows 10 machine, it is not installed in UEFI mode | 17:48 |
| OerHeks | if you do have gpt, why do you ask anyway? | 17:48 |
| fuze | Actually looks like I installed windows in mbr mode | 17:50 |
| fuze | Figured it would default to EFI, I’ll just reinstall | 17:51 |
| fuze | So do I have to do something in the bios to make it GPT? | 17:51 |
| fuze | OerHeks: to duel boot linux and windows do I install the grub boot loader on the first partition windows created? It’s ntfs | 19:27 |
