| BluesKaj | Happy New Year, Franzpow | 16:15 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Franzpow> Is it possible that I don't see any update in discover since I've installed kubuntu? | 16:24 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Franzpow> I reinstalled it 1 month ago | 16:25 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <RikMills> @Franzpow, What release? | 16:26 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Franzpow> I am running kubuntu 19.10 | 16:26 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <RikMills> There will have been some updates. Make sure you have the update repos enabled. Security updates may have been done automatically | 16:30 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Franzpow> It's strange. I remember that I had to update manually the security updates | 16:32 |
| BluesKaj | unattended upgrades is enabled by default and it runs automatically in the background when security upgrades become available, afaik | 16:33 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Franzpow> You're right | 16:34 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Franzpow> I checked it out in the options | 16:34 |
| BluesKaj | I just update and upgrade everyday with apt in the konsole | 16:35 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Franzpow> I disabled it. I will try to find in the next days if discover tells me that there are new updates avaible | 16:35 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Franzpow> BluesKaj: can you tell me which command I have to run to do that? | 16:35 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Franzpow> Apt-update? | 16:35 |
| BluesKaj | sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade | 16:36 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Franzpow> Does it ask me first if I want to upgrade? | 16:36 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Franzpow> Or it just does it automatically? | 16:36 |
| BluesKaj | yes | 16:36 |
| BluesKaj | it asks | 16:36 |
| BluesKaj | after updating | 16:37 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Franzpow> Ok fine | 16:37 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Franzpow> So it basically searches for updates | 16:37 |
| BluesKaj | yes | 16:37 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Franzpow> And asks you if you wanna install those upgrades | 16:37 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Franzpow> Updates* | 16:37 |
| BluesKaj | yes | 16:37 |
| BluesKaj | if you agree after running the above command just hit enter | 16:38 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Franzpow> Ok. I think that you're right and I am installing automatically all the security updates in the background | 16:39 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Franzpow> There are no updates available right now | 16:39 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Franzpow> I'll wait and see what happens in the next days :) | 16:39 |
| BluesKaj | ok | 16:40 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Franzpow> thanks | 16:42 |
| BluesKaj | Franzpow, an alternative to the command I posted is, sudo apt update;sudo apt upgrade | 16:48 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Franzpow> ok thanks | 16:49 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Franzpow> I will try that | 16:49 |

| IrcsomeBot1 | <ap_chan> Right! 😂 | 18:41 |
| jhutchins | On 18.02 when I change a system setting (auto-login) it prompts me for a password. What password does it want? It doesn't seem to accept current user or root. | 19:01 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Linuxophil> @jhutchins, did you by any chance encrypt your partition? | 19:56 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <ap_chan> After proposed-updates it works! See you soon! Good Year! | 19:58 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <Linuxophil> Hey guys! Happy new year! Which is your favorite program to make a bunch of photos into one pdf? | 20:00 |
| OerHeks | jhutchins, explain current user or root. | 20:00 |
| === dozor_ is now known as dozor | ||
| jhutchins | OerHeks: The password for the user logged in to the current session or the password for the root account. I did not try the password for the user I wanted to auto-login. I ended up creating an sddm.conf file in /etc/ | 20:58 |
| jhutchins | Still, I'd like to understand what the system is looking for. | 20:59 |
| Dragnslcr | jhutchins- normally it's your user password, assuming that the user you're logged in as has administrator privileges | 21:46 |
| Dragnslcr | I just tried changing the auto-login setting, and it asked for my password twice | 21:47 |
| jhutchins | Dragnslcr: Did it save your changes? | 21:51 |
| Dragnslcr | It looked like it | 21:51 |

| user|45355 | good day everyone i am having a problem right know | 22:12 |
| user|45355 | i have kubuntu 18.10 cosmic cuttlefish | 22:12 |
| user|45355 | but for some reason cannot do an upgrade from discovery | 22:12 |
| user|45355 | or from konsol | 22:12 |
| user|45355 | the error i get is the following | 22:13 |
| user|45355 | The repository 'cdrom://Kubuntu 18.10 _Cosmic Cuttlefish_ - Release amd64 (20181017.2) cosmic Release' does not have a Release file. | 22:13 |
| qih | user|45355: Are you trying to update your system using the CDROM? | 22:14 |
| user|45355 | no | 22:14 |
| user|45355 | i was trying to use the Discovery app | 22:15 |
| user|45355 | then switched to Konsole | 22:15 |
| user|45355 | but on both i get the same error | 22:15 |
| qih | OK, then it looks like you need to edit out the line in your /etc/apt/sources.list that refers to the CDROM. | 22:15 |
| qih | Are you able to edit files on your system using the command line? | 22:16 |
| user|45355 | i believe so, i am new to linux | 22:16 |
| qih | OK, follow these steps exactly, type in a command if I write it inside '' ... make sense? | 22:17 |
| qih | So if I type 'nano newfile.txt', I mean for you to type nano newfile.txt in your Terminal. OK? | 22:17 |
| user|45355 | ok} | 22:18 |
| qih | Right | 22:18 |
| qih | 'sudo nano cp -v /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.bak' | 22:19 |
| qih | This will make a simple backup of your ../sources.list <= which has your package repositories in it | 22:19 |
| user|45355 | ok | 22:20 |
| qih | Done? | 22:20 |
| user|45355 | done | 22:21 |
| qih | K | 22:21 |
| qih | 'sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list' | 22:21 |
| qih | This will open the file, tell me when doen | 22:21 |
| qih | s/doen/done | 22:21 |
| user|45355 | done | 22:22 |
| user|45355 | i see the file content in the console | 22:22 |
| qih | OK, go to the top line where it mentions CDROM, see it? | 22:23 |
| user|45355 | i see it, the first line | 22:24 |
| qih | K, mine is "#deb cdrom:[Kubuntu 19.10 _Eoan Ermine_ - Release amd64 (20191017)]/ eoan main multiverse restricted universe" | 22:24 |
| user|45355 | mine is | 22:24 |
| user|45355 | deb cdrom:[Kubuntu 18.10 _Cosmic Cuttlefish_ - Release amd64 (20181017.2)]/ cosmic main multiverse restricted$ | 22:24 |
| qih | See how mine has the # symbol, your's needs that. | 22:24 |
| user|45355 | ok, let me type that in | 22:25 |
| user|45355 | done | 22:25 |
| qih | So you add in the # symbol at the front of that line. # is used as a comment so it tells the shell interpreter to IGNORE that line. | 22:25 |
| qih | OK, now save & exit that file, using the key combo of Ctrl & o | 22:26 |
| user|45355 | done | 22:26 |
| qih | OK now exit the file, using key combo Ctrl & x | 22:27 |
| user|45355 | i no longer see the error | 22:29 |
| qih | OK excellent, that happens sometimes, after the initial install the ../sources.list does not get modified to # deb cdrom ... | 22:29 |
| user|45355 | got it | 22:30 |
| user|45355 | i will keep that in mind next time | 22:30 |
| user|45355 | thank you very much for the help | 22:30 |
| qih | So now you know how to open, edit and close the /etc/apt/sources.list file, update using the Command Line, make a backup and use Nano 8-) | 22:30 |
| qih | No worries, anytime | 22:30 |
| user|45355 | yeah i will have to learn more about the konsole | 22:31 |
| qih | For future reference if you EVERwant to mess around with a system file, anything in the /etc or /usr directories, *make a backup first* 8-) | 22:31 |
| user|45355 | got it, thanks again for all the help | 22:32 |
| qih | 'sudo cp -v /your/file/name /your/file/name.bak | 22:32 |
| qih | OK enjoy! | 22:32 |
| qih | Gawd I hope he did not 'rm -rf /' o_0 ... a little knowledge can sometimes be a dangerous thing 8-) | 22:34 |
| qih | Is there a meta-package of system development tools? Like 'make bison flex build-essential etc'? | 22:42 |
| OerHeks | build essentials is such meta package | 22:46 |
| qih | Ah right, well I went with 'make flex bison build-essentials' anyway, thanks | 22:48 |
| konrados | Hi and a happy new year! I have ubuntu on my main system disk, I want to install a new version of ubuntu on a second drive, which I just bought for this one reason. But... right now I do now have any pendrives available. I found this - https://askubuntu.com/questions/484434/install-ubuntu-without-cd-and-usb-how but - ... it seems overcomplicated(?) - really isn't there a simple way? | 22:58 |
| konrados | 25 steps? o.O | 22:59 |
| konrados | I mean, actually kubuntu or ubuntu+kde, whatever | 22:59 |
| konrados | Or maybe I should ask on #ubuntu and then add kde? | 23:03 |
| qih | If you are considering using KDE, then just install Kubuntu, it'll be a far more integrated and tested install. Sure you can chop and change but it gets so ... ugly 8-) | 23:09 |
| qih | Yep, that link is complicated, I'd not bother unless you were *very* competent *and* were prepared to fuxor things up on the first /part | 23:11 |
| qih | Go buy a USB drive, and save yourself a *huge* amount of hassle, my $0.02! | 23:11 |
| konrados | qih, yeah, but we have Christmas time, I've been waiting for my pendrive for ... two weeks :) | 23:12 |
| konrados | but thanks, this is what I'll do | 23:13 |
| qih | 8-) | 23:14 |
