[16:12] RikMills, mparillo, I realized that too late :-) [16:14] Happy new year! [16:15] Happy New Year, Franzpow [16:24] Is it possible that I don't see any update in discover since I've installed kubuntu? [16:25] I reinstalled it 1 month ago [16:26] @Franzpow, What release? [16:26] I am running kubuntu 19.10 [16:30] There will have been some updates. Make sure you have the update repos enabled. Security updates may have been done automatically [16:32] It's strange. I remember that I had to update manually the security updates [16:33] unattended upgrades is enabled by default and it runs automatically in the background when security upgrades become available, afaik [16:34] You're right [16:34] I checked it out in the options [16:35] I just update and upgrade everyday with apt in the konsole [16:35] I disabled it. I will try to find in the next days if discover tells me that there are new updates avaible [16:35] BluesKaj: can you tell me which command I have to run to do that? [16:35] Apt-update? [16:36] sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade [16:36] Does it ask me first if I want to upgrade? [16:36] Or it just does it automatically? [16:36] yes [16:36] it asks [16:37] after updating [16:37] Ok fine [16:37] So it basically searches for updates [16:37] yes [16:37] And asks you if you wanna install those upgrades [16:37] Updates* [16:37] yes [16:38] if you agree after running the above command just hit enter [16:39] Ok. I think that you're right and I am installing automatically all the security updates in the background [16:39] There are no updates available right now [16:39] I'll wait and see what happens in the next days :) [16:40] ok [16:42] thanks [16:48] Franzpow, an alternative to the command I posted is, sudo apt update;sudo apt upgrade [16:49] ok thanks [16:49] I will try that === jose is now known as Guest61026 [17:46] Hi, my touchpad doesn't work anymore, can you help me? === musician20000 is now known as musician2000 [17:55] perr-paranoic, check system-settings>hardware>input devices>touchpad [17:59] BluesKaj: It's all ok there I think.... [18:37] ap_chan was added by: ap_chan [18:38] Someone can help perr-paranoic please? Here I am! 😂😭 My tochpad doesn't work anymore... [18:40] ap_chan, what you expect, it's still holiday, nothing is working. [18:41] Right! 😂 [19:01] 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. [19:56] @jhutchins, did you by any chance encrypt your partition? [19:58] After proposed-updates it works! See you soon! Good Year! [20:00] Hey guys! Happy new year! Which is your favorite program to make a bunch of photos into one pdf? [20:00] jhutchins, explain current user or root. === dozor_ is now known as dozor [20:58] 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/ [20:59] Still, I'd like to understand what the system is looking for. [21:46] jhutchins- normally it's your user password, assuming that the user you're logged in as has administrator privileges [21:47] I just tried changing the auto-login setting, and it asked for my password twice [21:51] Dragnslcr: Did it save your changes? [21:51] It looked like it [21:58] Is there any advisory on HDMI Audio being disabled by default on Ubuntu* 19.10? [22:02] * qih googles [22:12] good day everyone i am having a problem right know [22:12] i have kubuntu 18.10 cosmic cuttlefish [22:12] but for some reason cannot do an upgrade from discovery [22:12] or from konsol [22:13] the error i get is the following [22:13] The repository 'cdrom://Kubuntu 18.10 _Cosmic Cuttlefish_ - Release amd64 (20181017.2) cosmic Release' does not have a Release file. [22:14] user|45355: Are you trying to update your system using the CDROM? [22:14] no [22:15] i was trying to use the Discovery app [22:15] then switched to Konsole [22:15] but on both i get the same error [22:15] OK, then it looks like you need to edit out the line in your /etc/apt/sources.list that refers to the CDROM. [22:16] Are you able to edit files on your system using the command line? [22:16] i believe so, i am new to linux [22:17] OK, follow these steps exactly, type in a command if I write it inside '' ... make sense? [22:17] So if I type 'nano newfile.txt', I mean for you to type nano newfile.txt in your Terminal. OK? [22:18] ok} [22:18] Right [22:19] 'sudo nano cp -v /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.bak' [22:19] This will make a simple backup of your ../sources.list <= which has your package repositories in it [22:20] ok [22:20] Done? [22:21] done [22:21] K [22:21] 'sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list' [22:21] This will open the file, tell me when doen [22:21] s/doen/done [22:22] done [22:22] i see the file content in the console [22:23] OK, go to the top line where it mentions CDROM, see it? [22:24] i see it, the first line [22:24] K, mine is "#deb cdrom:[Kubuntu 19.10 _Eoan Ermine_ - Release amd64 (20191017)]/ eoan main multiverse restricted universe" [22:24] mine is [22:24] deb cdrom:[Kubuntu 18.10 _Cosmic Cuttlefish_ - Release amd64 (20181017.2)]/ cosmic main multiverse restricted$ [22:24] See how mine has the # symbol, your's needs that. [22:25] ok, let me type that in [22:25] done [22:25] 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. [22:26] OK, now save & exit that file, using the key combo of Ctrl & o [22:26] done [22:27] OK now exit the file, using key combo Ctrl & x [22:29] i no longer see the error [22:29] OK excellent, that happens sometimes, after the initial install the ../sources.list does not get modified to # deb cdrom ... [22:30] got it [22:30] i will keep that in mind next time [22:30] thank you very much for the help [22:30] 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] No worries, anytime [22:31] yeah i will have to learn more about the konsole [22:31] 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-) [22:32] got it, thanks again for all the help [22:32] 'sudo cp -v /your/file/name /your/file/name.bak [22:32] OK enjoy! [22:34] Gawd I hope he did not 'rm -rf /' o_0 ... a little knowledge can sometimes be a dangerous thing 8-) [22:42] Is there a meta-package of system development tools? Like 'make bison flex build-essential etc'? [22:46] build essentials is such meta package [22:48] Ah right, well I went with 'make flex bison build-essentials' anyway, thanks [22:58] 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? [22:59] 25 steps? o.O [22:59] I mean, actually kubuntu or ubuntu+kde, whatever [23:03] Or maybe I should ask on #ubuntu and then add kde? [23:09] 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-) [23:11] 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] Go buy a USB drive, and save yourself a *huge* amount of hassle, my $0.02! [23:12] qih, yeah, but we have Christmas time, I've been waiting for my pendrive for ... two weeks :) [23:13] but thanks, this is what I'll do [23:14] 8-)
