[00:55] <user|90257> I updated Kubuntu 19.04 this morning and now I don't get my Desktop anymore. Any ideas what happened?
[00:59] <user|90257> Discovery asked me to update my system and now I get a black screen when I login after the update. Help
[04:56] <pragomer> hi. i am running kubuntu 18.04.3
[04:57] <pragomer> I am trying to find a dolphins service plugin that can "use this jpg as wallpaper"... but none of the downloadable plugins seem to work.
[04:57] <pragomer> even after reboot
[04:57] <pragomer> are they all outdated? or do I miss something here?
[04:57] <pragomer> the issue is: they dont appear in the servives list nor in dolphins context menu
[05:46] <valorie> pragomer: what does dolphin have to do with wallpaper?
[05:46] <valorie> right-click on the desktop, choose your chosen wallpaper, etc. and boom, done
[05:47] <valorie> nothing to do with dolphin
[05:58] <pragomer> valorie: hi.. i want to set the wallpaper via right-click "select as wallpaper"... like it is available in every other DE..
[06:49] <lordievader> Good morning
[10:52] <BluesKaj> Hey folks
[13:08] <viewer|53> Hi, can I ask questions here?
[13:23] <mparillo> Yes, and if anybody knows the answers, you will get a response. Note that as people join and leave, the answers may not be immediate.
 Good day all. I took a quick look at Plasma 5.17 using the beta ppa. Nothing new to report but I have 2 quick things. One, GTK apps are still not themed properly by default. The workaround to fix it is to change the GTK 2 and 3 themes to something else and then back to Breeze in Appearance settings. The other thing is more of a question about a default. xdg-desktop-portal-kde is installed by default but not enabled. It's easy enough
[15:55] <proctrap> ericadams if you want this to seen by ppl you should probably make an issue
[15:55] <proctrap> this way it's more present, IRC is nice for short talk or help but nothing persistent
[16:01] <staxas> hello, I could use some help withe 'present all windows' desktop effect
[16:01] <staxas> it seems broken
 @proctrap, Fair enough. Do you consider theese Kubuntu or KDE issues? Not sure myself.
[16:12] <proctrap> probably KDE
[16:12] <proctrap> you could ask there
[16:12] <proctrap> (IRC) #kde
[16:13] <proctrap> but this also depends on the environment settings
[16:13] <proctrap> so technically it can be a kubuntu issue
[16:13] <proctrap> but I don't think so
[16:13] <proctrap> (emulating the theme by setting environment variables to mimic the kde theme in gnome, different technology stack)
[16:13] <proctrap> but that's the end of my knowledge :P
[16:15] <staxas> thank you, I HAVE POSTED A QUESTION ON THE KUBUNTU FORUM
[16:16] <staxas> sorry
[16:20] <proctrap> oh that's probably also good
[18:24] <mozmck> Question: what are the two input boxes in the installer under the option  "Guided - use entire disk and set up encrypted lvm"?  It appears that I can't continue without putting something in them, but there is absolutely no indication what they are for!
[18:25] <mozmck> A picture is shown here, but no helpful text: https://userbase.kde.org/Kubuntu/Installation#Use_entire_disk
[18:27] <diogenes_> mozmck, do you need encryption?
[18:27] <mozmck> Yes
[18:28] <diogenes_> then i guess the second option would be good.
[18:28] <mozmck> diogenes_: I've done full disk encryption on LinuxMint (but not LVM) and it was straightforward.
[18:28] <diogenes_> but it will erase everything.
[18:28] <mozmck> diogenes_: second option is just LVM, not encrypted.
[18:29] <mozmck> It's a new blank drive
[18:30] <diogenes_> hmm sorry i have never used encryption, maybe someone who uses it would be more helpful.
[19:15] <genii> mozmck: Seems to me the boxes would be for: password and: password again to confirm they match
[19:16] <mozmck> genii: thanks.  I decided that's what they probably were and entered the same password in each and it let me continue.
[19:17] <mozmck> genii: but that is a rather obvious flaw in the installer that should be fixed.  This is on kubuntu 18.04.2
[19:17] <genii> You should probably write down whatever you set it to, and store it somewhere safe in case later you need it
[19:23] <valorie> argh, I filed a bug against the installer about the lack of labels over and over, for years
[19:23] <valorie> still no labels?
[19:24] <valorie> mozmck: ^^^
[19:24] <mozmck> valorie: Yes, on the screen to set up an encrypted LVM.  On the screen for username and password the boxes were labeled.
[19:25] <valorie> I'm looking for the bug report so you can add your input
[19:25] <mozmck> valorie: it looked just about like the screen shown here, except there was not even the key icon: https://userbase.kde.org/Kubuntu/Installation#Use_entire_disk
[19:26] <mozmck> https://userbase.kde.org/images.userbase/c/c6/Disksetup-15_10.png
[19:27] <valorie> 'ubuntu-bug ubiquity' in the commandline is the best
[19:27] <valorie> hopefully while you are in the process
[19:27] <valorie> but later is fine
[19:27] <mozmck> What does that all mean?
[19:28] <mozmck> Can I get a commandline while installing?  I've already finished the install now.
[19:29] <valorie> oh yes, you always have the terminal
[19:30] <valorie> control+alt+f4
[19:30] <valorie> for me, control+alt+f1 to come back
[19:30] <valorie> but that might be different for you
[19:30] <valorie> just keep trying until you return to the gui
[19:32] <genii> In the GUI installers, yes, 1st console is usually the one running the installer and 2-7 others which are available. In server install, 1 is installer, 2,3 are available and 4 is installer output for debugging
[19:33] <valorie> I can't seem to search well today for the ubiquity bug about missing labels
[19:36] <genii> bug 1681830
[19:36] <genii> valorie: ^
[19:36] <valorie> excellent!
[19:36] <valorie> thanks, genii
[19:37] <valorie> triaged
[19:37] <valorie> not FIXED
[19:37] <valorie> why
[19:38] <valorie> mozmck: please add your input to the above BR
[19:41] <mozmck> Just did - thanks!
[19:42] <valorie> thank you!
