IrcsomeBot<Swift110> Sip02:30
nanoI have already searched on google and there is nothing, just install kubuntu 18.04 and from the start in desktop effects the option of wobbly or jelly windows does not appear, is there any solution?02:39
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Wobbly windows are not enabled by default.02:40
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Go to System Settings  -> Desktop Behavior -> Desktop Effects02:41
nanoI have installed kubuntu 18.04 on other equipment and it has appeared from the beginning jelly-like windows. If I change this how can I activate it?02:42
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Filter for wobbly anc check the box.  I prefer a slighlty wobblier window, so I customize the wobbly'ness so I used the advanced settings02:43
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Stiffness = 3, Drag = 80, Move factor 22.  I also disable wobble on resize.02:43
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> If wobbly windows is not available, then your graphics driver might require updating.  Once updated, you may need to go to System Settings -> Display and Monitor -> Compositor and change Rendering Backend to OpenGl 2.0 or 3.102:46
nanoI have done what you say in other installations of kubuntu 18.04, but this time I simply do not see anything in System Settings -> Desktop Behavior -> Desktop Effects02:47
nanola opcion de ventanas gelatinosas simplemente no se encuentra en ninguna parte02:48
nanoQuizás quisiste decir: la opción de ventanas gelatinosas simplemente no se encuentra en ninguna parte02:48
nano79/500002:48
nanothe option of gelatinous windows is simply not found anywhere02:48
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> If you have not enabled backports, you may encounter an old plasma glitch where it crashes an kill compositing.02:48
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> What graphics card and driver do you have?02:49
nanois a Nvidia GeForce RTX 207002:53
nanodriver noveau, privative driver give me a big resolution02:54
IrcsomeBot<Swift110> Cool nano02:54
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> To fix big resolution, force the font dpi to 96 (or whatever works best depending on your display resolution/dpi).  You will need to logout and log back in to see full results (or restart plasma)03:09
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Open source nvidia driver is kind of hit an miss for the many of the plasma animations and back end (compositor).03:11

cuscoyea the app does not support bookmarking ..08:50
diogenes_what app?08:52
IrcsomeBot<Swift110> Hello09:03
mparillocusco: You could make it [one of] your browser start page[s].09:16
IrcsomeBot<Swift110> Oh09:18
mparilloIn my case, my browser start page is a simple HTML file of links. I find it much better than browser-based bookmarks, because I can share it across Falkon and Chromium.09:22
fructosecusco: There is lots you can do, it's more a question of what exactly you want to do.09:24
fructosecusco: For example, you can make a shortcut that will put a URL in your clipboard09:26
fructosecusco: Or make a shortcut that will just directly open a URL09:28

diogenes_and why didn't you come here first?16:01
paul__i didnt come here first because i am new to this studff so tried facebook grop and i followed a cupple of online guides from google16:02
diogenes_ok kubuntu 18.04.1 comes with 4.15 kernel so how did you end up with 5.0?16:03
paul__https://www.linuxbabe.com/desktop-linux/switch-intel-nvidia-graphics-card-ubuntu?fbclid=IwAR0Bw0nUBeGjItOohOPPjALf9HnOe9xfYxNd16XrBETGjaSH05kmAswiCl016:03
paul__i tried this16:03
paul__i do not know how i ended up with 5.0 i done a network install of ubuntu then i installed k ubuntu because i wanted the plasma desktop16:04
paul__lol sorry idf  i seem a little wet behind the ears16:04
paul__i am16:04
diogenes_paul__, looks like your nvidia driver installation is broken big time and only sain iGNUssius knows what else you have done to your system before you came here so, i'd recommend install a fresh 19.04 and without you changing or installing anything, come right here after the installation is complete.16:05
mparilloLinux babe? I guess that was from before valorie became a Linux Grandma.16:07
paul__can i not rollback stuff because befor i noticed this problem my system is great it has taken me a while to get it the way i want it i thought that was the best thing about linux it can be fixed and everything can be sorted16:07
paul__and i really love it16:07
paul__you must beable to fix this can i not delete the drivers and reinstall the proper ones with you guys helping me16:08
diogenes_paul__, how do you think we all got to know how to handle linux? when i started linux first, i used to install, break and re-install couple of times a day so that's how you learn.16:09
paul__i already have installed a couple of times i startedwith suse linux the HDMI worked fine then i made a couple of cock ups installing this one16:10
diogenes_right, and if you still get it broken then you still need to go through more re-installations until you learn how not to break it.16:11
paul__can i install 19.04 from the command line like an update or do i need to down load it to a flash drive16:14
diogenes_you could have upgrade if your system was ok, but since your system is broken then in the process of upgrade, it might get even more broken, that's why a fresh install off of a flashdrive would be preferable, also if you have a separate /home, i'd recommend you remove all .folders and .files before you proceed.16:16
paul__will you guys deffo help me i f i do a fresh install16:18
paul__and is 19.04 the best installation i didnt think that one was an lts16:18
diogenes_we'll try.16:18
paul__i always thought lts was the better instalation16:19
diogenes_depends on how new is the hardware.16:20
paul__laptop is about a year to a year and a haldf old acer nitro 516:20
paul__ok i really am trusting you guys and i will do a complete fresh instalof 19.04 i hope it works16:31

genii  If you pick start, it should boot up to Kubuntu running off the usb or DVD, with an icon on the desktop for installing17:09
w-adminhi, where I can check the last release of Kubunut?19:15
w-adminI wanna always Up to date19:16
IrcsomeBot<Shreddies> @w-admin, Kubuntu official website most likely,Unless you mean checking for updates19:33
mparilloTo get your release: lsb_release -a19:35
mparilloAs Sheddies said, no matter which release, you want to keep up with updates plus I also recommend backports.19:36
IrcsomeBot<Shreddies> @mparillo, what are backports? are they really necessary? never heard of them before19:37
IrcsomeBot<Shreddies> @w-admin, sudo apt update         then          sudo apt upgrade            in the konsole will update/upgrade your packages19:38

nanoI have installed proprietary drivers of an nvidia RTX2070, the only drawback is that only kde plasma applications such as dolphin, konsole, window decoration look much bigger, although the panel and panel icon along with other non-KDE applications are seen of correct size.20:37

magic_ninja_workSo, I have a question. Say I have a flash drive, such as install media for kubuntu on a usb drive. When I plug it in, it automounts. What if I want to format it. I can't format, do work on the disk because it is mounted, however if I "safely eject it" in dolphin, it doesn't show up in KDE Partition manager.21:01

nanoHow could I configure this error to fix it?21:42
swift110hmm21:43
magic_ninja_worknano, there is an option for those in system settings. I can't remember where, though21:49
nanoHi On screen and monitor the resolution is fine, in Nvidia settings everything is fine. The only thing that looks bigger are KDE applications, third-party applications like chrome look normal except for the decoration of windows that also look great in all applications21:57
nanoThe letters in dolphin, konsole, kate, system preferences, system monitor look very large, in applications like chrome, deadbeef and others that are not plasma the letters look normal22:02
magic_ninja_worknano, once again, there is a setting for font size and scaling in the kde settings app22:02
magic_ninja_worksettings-->appearance-->fonts22:03
nanoNot only is the size of the fonts, the decoration of the windows also looks bigger, it is the whole resolution of only those applications22:04
nanothe sources are on the same scale as before installing the nvidia driver, noto sands 10, hack 922:06
nanothe fonts I means22:08
