tbsHello, im kinda new at linux, i see that lubuntu uses kde pack  manager. are all packs same when we open it on a kde desktopped distro?06:05
tbsim back06:08
wxltbs: howdy06:10
wxltbs: so i'm not sure i completely understand your question. first, we don't use the kde desktop, but there's a couple kde applications we use.06:11
tbswxl: shortly, can i find all app that kubuntu kde app store has at lubuntu kde app store?06:13
wxltbs: secondly, in regards to binary packages, no, they're not all the same. there are so-called universal packages, but this is a relatively new concept that is not without its flaws.06:13
wxltbs: if you wish to install software on kubuntu or lubuntu, both use discover or muon (or, on the command line, apt/dpkg) and all of them use the same software sources (the ubuntu archive)06:14
tbswxl: i think i saw steam and google earth at discover, but i can t find them now at lubuntu discover06:17
wxltbs: again, they all come from the same source06:19
wxlhere's the Debian packages related to steam https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=steam06:20
tbswxl: may i ask u to check if u can see them at discover?06:21
wxlyou WON'T find google earth. you can talk to google about THAT problem.06:21
tbswxl: im sorry for making u angry, thanks for answers, have a nice day ^^06:22
guiverctbs, you didn't make wxl angry06:22
wxltbs: i concur. there's no ill feeling in any way.06:23
wxl(…except maybe toward google)06:23
tbsu showed me a page about steam  but i still dont see steam at discover app when i search it, what can  i do?06:25
tbswxl:06:26
wxlhere's a screenshot of steam in discover https://share.riseup.net/#-c9rS6hvbY55ht9H6scEaw06:27
wxlyou might try closing discover and reopening it06:28
wxlyou could also use muon06:28
tbswxl: seems like ur my discover cant discover like urs :/06:29
wxltbs: did you check the hashes of your ISO and also check the installation media for defects? if not, perhaps it's a faulty install.06:30
tbswxl: i did06:30
wxlthen it should just work. regardless, try muon instead. it will work.06:31
tbswxl: there appaers a sentence, i use turkish so i ll try to translate it to e nglish for u tu understand06:32
tbswxl: "be sure that you configured appstream correctly at your system"06:33
wxlhah wow that's new06:33
tbsi see this whenever i open  discover06:33
tbsbut idk what to do06:34
wxlwow that is just bizarre06:35
wxlyou could try reinstalling discover itself06:35
tbshmm, from moon ?06:36
wxl`sudo dpkg-reconfigure plasma-discover` and/or `sudo apt reinstall plasma-discover` in terminal ought to do it06:36
wxlyou could also try doing the same with the appstream package instead of plasma-discover06:37
tbs<wxl> `sudo dpkg-reconfigure plasma-discover` and/or `sudo apt reinstall plasma-discover` in terminal ought to do it          i did these but it s same06:39
tbscan u write full code about appstream package?06:40
wxljust replace "plasma-discover" with "appstream"06:40
tbsstill same06:42
wxlwhat version of lubuntu are you on, out of curiousity?06:43
tbs19.1006:43
wxlwith discover closed, try running `appstreamcli refresh`06:45
wxloh you may need to `sudo appstreamcli refresh`06:45
tbsi did need, an d it said " appstream doesn t need "frontram" update" im   notsure about tra nslate of "frontram"06:47
wxlok let's get more aggressive: `sudo appstreamcli refresh --force`06:47
tbs(null) it said06:48
wxlthat's truly bizarre06:50
tbsi didnt format /home partition  and just picked it again at with same  name, so some of my apps has somethings from previous apps, is this maybe also cuz of that?06:50
wxldepending on what the previous distro was, that could be anything from slightly problematic to completely disastrous06:51
wxlso, yes, most likely06:51
tbsi used mint xfce, i m usin g this n ow cuz xfce doesnt have arrange options for desktop icons and it auto arrange desktop icons at restrart an d i can t stop it...06:52
wxloh my please do a fresh install06:53
wxlyou're going to drive yourself crazy trying to resolve that mess06:53
tbsyes, it seeems i need to do that06:54
tbs btw i like lubuntu really06:54
wxli'm glad :)06:54
wxland with that, i am going to sleep06:54
wxlbest of luck to you and hope to see you around :)06:54
tbsare you perheps at lubuntu team ?06:54
wxlyeah that's me06:54
wxl(one of the team)06:55
tbsmay i want something selfish_? :D06:55
wxlwhat's that?06:55
tbsdo u know archman?06:55
tbsit s a distro06:55
wxlnope06:55
tbsthey use arch as base06:56
wxli gather that XD06:56
tbsi saw their lxde or lxqt desktop not offical but from oter members i guess at their store06:56
tbsi liked the way of that distro do som ethings they build at some ways06:57
tbsbut it s not stable, needs somethin gs to repair i guess06:57
wxlwell being based on arch there will be plenty of things that won't be compatible with the ubuntu ecosystem06:58
wxland that is one of them XD06:58
tbsi wanted to ask that if u may check it so u may creat a theme or som ethin g like that smilar but better of them:)06:58
tbsgive m e a m in an d i ll fin d adress06:59
wxli guess that would depend on what specific thing(s) you want changed/added07:00
tbsi guessed u m ay wonder about that:D07:00
tbsbtw it was openbox,  not lx ...07:01
tbshttps://sourceforge.net/projects/archman-os/files/stable-iso/2019-03/community/openbox/07:01
tbsbut here we use openbox also i guess07:01
wxlopenbox is our window manager. it could be almost anything.07:01
tbswell, idk much :/07:01
wxlopenbox itself is pretty minimal07:01
tbsif u check this distro u can see ab out changing desktop, but it haves some bad ways too, i also liked left side tab07:03
tbschanging desktop i m ean  hmmm i can t remember  right word...07:04
tbsat most de we have it but they did it at a little different way07:04
tbsat left side bar there s an icon that shows all apps at desktop but it has bugs, it also devour desktop items which s not about app icons:D07:06
wxlyou like the dock07:06
tbsi dont wait that u would do the same of them but i just wanted to show u an idea cuz after all distros i tried this s the one of the bests distro i could find07:07
tbssorry to keep u here, good night sleep well ^^07:08
wxlyou might try latte-dock07:09
wxli've never bothered so ymmv07:09
tbsmore likely i like transparant parted things to see more empty spaces i guess07:10
wxlhttps://kde.org/applications/utilities/org.kde.latte-dock07:10
wxlanyways off to bed i go! :)07:11
tbssleep well^^07:11
tbs "Be sure Appstream is properly installed"  this s the error message i get from discover, it seems this s a bug since 2 years ago but i couldn t find how to solve this. can  any one help me?09:30

tbsmaybe u are also here to get help...21:29
kc2bezNo, I am here to help if I can. if I don't have the answer maybe someone else does.21:29
kc2bez!ask21:29
ubottuPlease don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience21:29
tbsi have a problem about discover, it s known bug it seems, i searched about it at net21:30
tbseven  before 2 years there was this bug im  facing now at discover app21:31
tbswhen i open discover it says " be sure to configure appstream correctly on your system"21:32
tbsprobably becouse of this i cant see some apps at discover...21:32
tbscan u help me? :/21:32
kc2bezThat is a new one to me. Do you have a bug report to reference?21:33
tbsi didn t report anything21:34
tbsidk how21:34
tbsim kinda new at linux21:34
kc2bezNo problem, I can walk you through the process.21:34
tbsbut i like linux, i like this lubuntu for my pc too21:35
tbsthanks^^21:35
kc2bezFor reference here is our wiki page on reporting bugs: https://phab.lubuntu.me/w/bugs/21:36
kc2bezTo report a bug for discover here is the TL;DR process21:37
kc2bezOpen a terminal and type in the command `ubuntu-bug discover`21:37
kc2bezWithout the `` of course.21:38
kc2bezIt should guide you from there.21:38
kc2bezYou will need an account on launchpad.net so that you can get information as your bug moves along through the process.21:39
tbs"Please make sure that Appstream is properly setup on21:42
tbsyour system"   i guess this s right translation, i use turkish so i translated sentence on my own before. i found this at web now21:42
kc2bezNot sure21:42
kc2bezI gave you the wrong command though.21:42
kc2bezIt should be `ubuntu-bug plasma-discover`21:43
kc2bezplasma-discover is the proper package name.21:43
kc2bezLet me do a little searching.21:43
tbsyes, it is, i tried to do alot of things so i also know:D21:43
tbsi reinstalled it with muon+synaptic also reinstalled lubuntu 2 times, ofc i chacked lubuntu hash21:45
kc2bezappstream data comes from the internet so If thereis a network issue between you and the source that may be part of the problem.21:46
kc2bezYou can use muon to install packages too.21:46
tbsi dont have in tern et problem, u know when u open  discover u see recommended apps, i also dont see them but when i search some apps i see list of apps, but i cant find some of them21:47
tbsi want to install steam, synaptic or muon doesnt help me...21:48
tbskc2bez: ?21:50
kc2bezThe recommended apps come from a list that is hosted here: https://autoconfig.kde.org/discover/featured-5.9.json21:50
kc2bezah steam, that has a bit of a trick to it.21:50
kc2bezBefore you install steam you need to issue in the terminal `sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 && sudo apt update`21:52
kc2bezThat enables the i386 architecture that steam requires.21:53
kc2bezYou should be able to install the steam installer from there.21:54
tbs  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plasma-discover/+filebug/f85d140c-2c17-11ea-a586-0025b3df357a?21:54
tbsi dont have account21:54
kc2bezYou can make one, just go to launchpad.net and in the upper right click log in / register21:56
kc2bezFrom there enter an email and select I don't have an Ubuntu One account21:57
tbsi feel half sich of creating accounts really :/22:02
tbssick*22:03
tbsi n eed to write things at dark...22:03
tbsi need e-mail app at m y n ew system, it ll take a while...22:06
tbswhich app u use for email?22:07
kc2bezPersonally I use Thunderbird or a web client for the most part. I use Trojita for some stuff too.22:08
tbsi tried some includin g thunderbird, but cuz of some bad securty things emails has i couldnt enter them  via those apps22:09
tbsi ll try k mail n ow if it won t work i ll use web again with ICE, do u know ice?22:10
kc2bezNot really, no.22:11
tbsit s a good app, i suggest u to try it, since u help me this much22:11
kc2bezI will check it out, thanks.22:11
tbsare you at team of lubuntu?22:12
kc2bezYes, I am part of the team.22:12
tbsdo u know peppermint?22:12
kc2bezI have used it a couple of times but I am not as familiar.22:13
tbsice is their app if i understood well, it s for using a browser for something spesific separate from main  browser app22:15
tbsforexample u have 2 hotmail mail, u cant sing 2 of them at same time so u can use this app for that22:15
tbsalso this app makes page like full screen so it seems like an app itself for things like microsoft word, their primary  reason to do this app is for that i guess22:17
kc2bezNice, reading up on it at their web page.22:17
tbshttps://launchpad.net/~peppermintos22:17
tbsu can  download it from here22:18
kc2bezThanks.22:18
tbsalso i suggest u to check Advert Blocker app of theirs22:18
kc2bezI have one of those at my firewall but that can be handy on a laptop that isn't on your home network.22:19
tbsu guys may work or help eachother imo, what i see is sharing what makes linux bigger22:19
kc2bezFrom my experience there is a lot of sharing among all the distros.22:20
tbs peppermint s good but i think lubuntu s better at someways22:20
kc2bezYou are right, it is the best way to make it better for everyone. It isn't a competition really, the idea is to use what works best for you.22:22
tbsi installed kmail but it seem s it installed so much things that i dont need to my system :/22:24
kc2bezYou may not need them but kmail does ;) It is the way it goes sometimes packages have many dependencies that are not on your system.22:26
tbsit eve n wants valled app... forcin g is not good really :/22:28
tbsi ll remove them all!22:28
tbsi deleted all kde stuff but it seems i did wrong:D22:47
kc2bezWell, some of the kde stuff is installed by default so if that got removed then, yes.22:49
kc2bez`sudo apt install lubuntu-desktop` should bring back all the default applications.22:51
tbskc2bez: are you here?23:06
kc2bezyup, still here23:06
tbsi did report, so what to do now?23:07
lubot<ctisme> @tbs [<tbs> i did report, so what to do now?], greet the happy new year23:08
lubot<ctisme> ❤️23:08
kc2bezWait for some feedback :). There isn't much that can be done until someone analyzes the issue.23:08
tbsu know workspaces at desktop23:09
kc2bezYes.23:09
tbsi can change them via a little app at panel23:10
lubot<ctisme> @kc2bez [<kc2bez> You are right, it is the best way to make it better for everyone. It is …], 👍23:10
tbsbut i wan t to do it with not that little up, whenever i use m m ouse whell on panel i wanna change workspace23:10
tbslike i can do it on desktop23:11
tbscan  i?23:11
kc2bezNot that I know of.23:11
tbswell, i can i guess but idk how, i saw it at another distro23:12
tbshttps://sourceforge.net/projects/archman-os/files/stable-iso/2019-03/community/openbox/23:13
tbsat this23:13
tbsi also liked this distro but it s n ot stable...23:13
tbsthat distro s what lead me lxqt an d so here23:14
kc2bezthat can be an issue with arch23:14
kc2bezthere is a keyboard shortcut to switch desktops23:14
kc2bezSuper + F1-4 switch23:15
tbsyeah but i wan n a do it on taskbar like i can do it on  desktop23:15
tbsbtw it s okay if u dont know, i m just asking and trying my chance23:16
kc2bezYeah, I am not sure.23:16
tbsi also wan t to know how to put different wallpaper on differen d workspaces23:16
tbsat that distro i sent u there s those things i am mentioning23:17
tbsbut like i said it s n ot stable, it s  not even from archman itself but fro m comunity, but i liked som ethin gs those guys did there23:18
kc2bezI am not sure how they are accomplishing that. It isn't possible with LXQt.23:19
tbsu r at team  of lubuntu, can u check it? :D so maybe i can learn it from  you?23:20
tbsdo u know  last player mint use at 19.3 , how can i install it here?23:21
kc2bezI haven't used mint so I don't know.23:21
tbsCelluloid23:22
tbshow can i install this?23:22
kc2bezcelluloid is the gym frontend for mpv. It used to be called gnome mpv23:25
kc2bezgtk not gym23:25
kc2bezautocorrect got me there.23:26
tbsso what if it s gtk fronted?23:26
kc2bezit doesn't really matter, I was just noting it.23:27
tbsso how can i in stall it?23:28
kc2bezMost of the applications we have are Qt so any gtk application will need to pull in those extra depenancies. standby let me look up the package name.23:28
tbssure, thanks23:29
kc2bezsudo apt install gnome-mpv23:30
kc2bezsmplayer is a possible qt alternative.23:30
kc2bezmpv has many different frontends.23:31
tbswell, i have read that Celluloid was gnome  mpv, but are they same now?23:31
kc2bezIt seems like only a name change.23:32
tbsvlc s fine, but i wanted to try Celluloid too some  more, i tried it before lubuntu at i guess it s a little better than vlc but im not sure23:33
tbswill it be same with kmail if i in stall gnome-mpv?23:34
kc2bezIf you do a `sudo apt install -s gnome-mpv` it will simulate the install and you can see what it will do.23:37
kc2bezThe "-s" tells apt to simulate it.23:38
kc2bezmuon will list the dependencies too.23:39
tbsit finished so fast, but i cant fi nd the app23:40
kc2bezit didn't actually install with the -s flag23:41
kc2bezit is a simulation23:41
tbs@@23:41
tbsit said use sudo apt autoremove so i used it23:41
tbsbut it seem s it removes so m uch things!!!23:41
kc2bezautoremove does remove things yes23:42
tbsi may need to reinstall lubuntu again...23:42
kc2bezsudo apt install lubuntu-desktop if you think it removed too much.23:43
tbsit even  removing drivers, i guess that code wont be en ough23:44
kc2bezhard to say. I can't see what it is removing.23:45
tbsi thought sudo apt autoremove s for aotoremoving leftovers after removing an app...23:45
kc2bezit is.23:46
kc2bezextra kernel modules that are not in use, that sort of thing.23:46
kc2bezit is probably from the extra kde stuff that you uninstalled.23:47
tbsi don t have some apps now23:47
tbslike vlc and half of libre office apps an d som e graphic apps an d some m ore23:48
kc2bezthey should reinstall with lubuntu-desktop23:48
tbswhy only half or libre office apps? why not all?23:49
kc2bezI am not sure.23:50
tbshow can i install stea m?23:50
kc2bez[16:52] <fffffkc2bezBefore you install steam you need to issue in the terminal `sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 && sudo apt update`23:51
tbsi did23:51
kc2bezok then you should be able to sudo apt install steam-installer23:52
tbsi ll try after in stalling lubuntu desktop23:53
kc2bezok23:53
tbsthere s notifications thing on panel, how can  i delete it?23:54
tbskc2bez: ?23:55
kc2bezwhat is the notification?23:56
melodietbs sudo aptitude --purge inotify23:56
tbswell,  it shows some reports from some apps i guess23:57
