diogenes_ossasecuridad, ok let's do it differently, reboot again and this time don't edit anything, just boot straight into the desktop and when it whows the cursor, ctrl+alt+f4 and login.17:57
diogenes_tell me when done.17:57
ossasecuridadSure wait a sec17:57
ossasecuridadDiogenes I solved it, I just had to modify in bios settings the secure boot option of what I boot, it was on Windows and I changed it to Other os and now I see the display manager18:02
diogenes_ossasecuridad, ok good.18:03
IrcsomeBot<Ebrahim Hakimuddin> @ericadams, sometimes the eroor comes read/write error but after a few attempts it boots up and works just fine18:16
IrcsomeBot<ericadams> @Ebrahim Hakimuddin, Perhaps a disk issue? Is this unique to Kubuntu? Sees odd that it works intermittently.19:11
simulanthey can anyone help out. Some updates went in today on my Kubuntu 19.04 and after rebooting I can't login to kde plasma desktop anymore!! I just have the sddm login but I enter my password, the screen goes black and then it goes back to the login screen again20:21
simulantI tried deleting Xauthority file, restarting sddm but that hasn't made any difference20:22

valoriehello all, I updated to the beta last night using the commandline sudo do-release-upgrade -d22:53
valoriebut it finished with errors22:53
valoriesudo dpkg --configure -a got me no feedback; however I do have https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/dCKdXqBq4j22:54
valoriethis was after I did sudo apt install kubuntu-desktop22:55
valorieI've tried installing each of the referred-to packages but they all depend on something else and I end up with nothing22:56
valoriecan't seem to return to the broken desktop from the terminal and I hesitate to restart22:57
valoriemore info: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/K8M44x3xYN/23:07
oerapt install -f # might fix this23:11
oerand why do people avoid to paste the used command too..23:12
valorieoer, thanks, I'll try that23:27
valorieI tried to mention them because for some reason pastebinit doesn't capture the command23:27
valoriethe desktop is broken so I have only terminal23:28
valorieon the travel laptop I was trying to upgrade23:28
oeroh oke, i might see that a bugreport worthy23:30
valorienope, 0000 upgraded23:30
valoriewell, I did write to the devel list in the meantime23:30
oeri mean, pastebinit should add the command used23:30
valorieperhaps we have something stuck in proposed....23:30
valorieah, that's an idea23:31
oermake a fresh 19.10 iso on usb, while you can?23:33
oerhttp://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/daily-live/current/23:34
valoriewell, I know I can always reinstall23:35
valoriehowever, people who want to should be able to upgrade23:35
valorieit's been a long time since that didn't work23:35
valoriethere is no problem with my main laptop so yes, I can always make a fresh USB23:36
valorierunning the plasma beta and loving it23:36
