[02:05] <lsd_> hi guys simple question wont be hard for iso creator 19.10 as we know hybrid cards are hard topic you can use bumbmlebee, nvidia prime, optirun primusrun and so on, QUESTION is what command will force to use nvidia in 19.10
 lsd_ with Nvidia driver 440 or later,  preced your launch with the following: __NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia
 i.e. __NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia steam steam://rungameid/240 &
 hopefully that will work better for you than it did for me.  When the intel profile was selected using CS source, my 4Klaptop hits ~47fps. Using the above command booted to the intel profile hist about 70fps, but screen tearing and stuttering happend frequuently.  Booted into the NVidia profile, I see over 100fps, no stutter or tearing.
 See more details here: https://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/435.17/README/primerenderoffload.html
 I have not successfully tried the GPU redirect with 19.10.
[05:47] <lsd_> @DarinMiller thank you for response  will fight with that hopefully in short amount of time actually is over 2 weeks

[06:10] <pragomer> hi. I am using kubuntu 18.04. I installed a newer version of darktable (3.0) via deb file. Works fine. But discover and apt want to upgrade it (downside) to 2.6.2. How can I tell the system not to update the programm "darktable"?
[06:15] <diogenes_> pragomer, in synaptic lock it down.
[06:18] <pragomer> diogenes_: but you mean explicit the programm synaptic, right? Ok, I will have a look.
[06:19] <OerHeks> snap give 3.0 https://snapcraft.io/darktable
[06:20] <diogenes_> pragomer, synaptic package manager, look for darktable therr, highlight it, click on Packages > Version lock.
[06:21] <pragomer> ok.. I found it. And this will prevent also discover and apt to upgrade it, right?
[06:21] <diogenes_> well try and see.
[06:22] <pragomer> ahm, no it does not. but perhaps I will have to to a reboot.
[06:23] <diogenes_> wait
[06:23] <pragomer> ok
[06:23] <diogenes_> after marking version lock did you hit 'apply'?
[06:29] <pragomer> diogenes_: Wait, I will check the apply button *LOL*
[06:30] <pragomer> ahm, when selecting to "lock" the program, I cannot push the apply button (it seems not to be a "done action")
[06:32] <diogenes_> pragomer, ok but does it mark the package as red?
[06:32] <pragomer> yes, as red - correct
[06:33] <diogenes_> ok then it should be ok, in terminal run: sudo apt update
[06:35] <pragomer> as you can see, the apply button is greyed out:    http://i.imgur.com/iza1Ubn.png
[06:36] <pragomer> apt offers me to upgrade even after apt update
[06:36] <diogenes_> pragomer, yes then it's not needed because it turns out it applies changes automatically.
[06:37] <diogenes_> how did you install the .deb package?
[06:38] <pragomer> I installed the deb file via: sudo apt install ./darktable3.deb
[06:39] <diogenes_> pragomer, ok remove it and install with: sudo dpkg -i ./darktable3.deb
 hey
[06:40] <pragomer> diogenes_: I did it...  An re-installed via dpkg. But after apt-update it is still shown as an upgradeable package..
[06:41] <pragomer> I will see if apt pinning unter /etc/apt/preferences will work...
[07:09] <RikMills> pragomer: I see why you get that issue
[07:09] <RikMills> you have this or a similar ppa enabled: https://launchpad.net/~pmjdebruijn/+archive/ubuntu/darktable-release
[07:10] <RikMills> the darktable package in that has had a 1: epoch added to the version, which means dpkg/apt see it as a higher version than any without it
[07:10] <RikMills> disable the ppa, and the issue should go away
[07:12] <pragomer> hi. I do not have a ppa enabled.. I took the deb file from here: https://software.opensuse.org/package/darktable
[07:12] <pragomer> or does installing a deb file enable a ppa?
[07:14] <RikMills> I can see in your screenshot that you have the dbg package from the ppa there
[07:14] <pragomer> oh, then it WAS enabled via installing the deb file..
[07:15] <RikMills> what does 'apt-cache policy darktable' show
[07:15] <pragomer> But: i just discoverd that darktable 3.0 is also available as snap.. if this does not have performance losts I could also go with that..
[07:16] <RikMills> yeah, might be better
[07:20] <lordievader> Good morning
[08:46] <lsd_> @DarinMiller do u know how to enable auto focus? in q2pro command is s_auto_focus 1 while minimizing game

[12:57] <BluesKaj> Hi folks
[13:00] <DarwinElf> i can no longer update Kubuntu
[13:19] <BluesKaj> DarwinElf, please explain with more detail
[13:21] <DarwinElf> on a couple PCs, the update feature just keeps going & going... keeps trying to get the updates.  Nothing happenms
[13:21] <DarwinElf> happens
[13:21] <DarwinElf> one has been trying to update for two or three days.  The other just started today and didn't get updates either
[13:22] <BluesKaj> are they using apt in the konsole or discover?
[13:23] <DarwinElf> Loading of providers from downloads.kde.org/ocs/providers.xml failed
[13:23] <BluesKaj> and which kubuntu releases are they running?
[13:23] <DarwinElf> different ones
[13:23] <DarwinElf> this was in Discover
[13:24] <DarwinElf> one has 18.04; one has 19.10
[13:24] <BluesKaj> if the releases are EOL then there won't be any updates/upgrades
[13:24] <BluesKaj> !EOL
[13:25] <BluesKaj> hmm odd
[13:26] <DarwinElf> not applicable
[13:26] <DarwinElf> the error I mentioned is from 18.04.  On 19.10 it just keeps saying similar things like 'resolving,' 'getting list of repositories'--never finds the site
[13:26] <BluesKaj> have you checked your software sources server ?
[13:26] <DarwinElf> i just use default
[13:27] <BluesKaj> well change it
[13:30] <BluesKaj> sometimes the servers go down without notice
[13:33] <DarwinElf> doesn't seem there's an option to change it.  It also says missing PackageKit backend
[13:34] <BluesKaj> i recommebd using muon as a reference package manager, discover is eye candy but lacking in many ways
[13:38] <lordievader> DarwinElf: What happens when you run `sudo apt update` from the command line?
[13:39] <DarwinElf> it updates
[13:39] <DarwinElf> but the system tray updates thing keeps looking
[13:39] <DarwinElf> i also removed snap because it's absolute garbage... now it says missing snap backend but also packagekit backend.  I didn't ask it to remove packagekit backend
[13:39] <DarwinElf> why do OSes that have automatic GUI have people who always think they know better than the user?
[13:40] <lordievader> That command only updates the package lists. It doesn't actually update installed packages. The command does not give errors or warning?
[13:41] <BluesKaj> updates aren't upgrades
[13:45] <DarwinElf> now the 18.04 updated, so the problem wasn't using a particular server that was no longer accessible
[13:46] <BluesKaj> well, you obviously upgraded the updatres
[13:46] <DarwinElf> i already said the first one I mentioned (19.10) updated.  I didn't say it gave errors.  I said it updated.  I upgraded it after that; it's up-to-date.  The system tray thing keeps looking
[13:46] <DarwinElf> yeah, the 18.04 one upgraded from Discover
[13:47] <DarwinElf> i think it has something to do with that I erased snap
[13:47] <DarwinElf> (on 19.10)
[13:47] <DarwinElf> is there a way to fix updates for normal packages without reinstalling snap?  If I have to do that, that PC will be changed to something other than *ubuntu
[13:48] <BluesKaj> i have no interest in snaps, so have no idea what the issue there is
[13:48] <DarwinElf> well it's built-in to some 19.n version
[13:48] <BluesKaj> I haven't enabled the option
[14:12] <user|99080> Can you duel book win 10 and Kubuntu?
[14:13] <BluesKaj> dual boot, yes
[14:34] <Guest27116> Hello, I was hoping to get some help getting IPv6 correctly configured
[14:35] <BluesKaj> Guest27116, I suggest you ask in ##networking chat for IPv6 advice
[14:36] <Guest27116> I will try that, thank you
[14:42] <lordievader> Guest27116: What is your ipv6 problem?
[14:42]  * lordievader knows something about ipv6.
[14:45] <Guest27116> Hi lordievader, thank you. I'm on Kubuntu 19.10 and the autoconfiguration is failing to acquire an IPv6 address from my provider and I don't know how to figure out why it's happening
[14:45] <Guest27116> I'm on fiber-to-the-premises type connection, with an ethernet plug directly into the wall.
[14:46] <lordievader> Guest27116: Install the `ndisc6` package and see if you can get a router advertisement with `sudo rdisc6 -1v <interface>`.
[14:49] <Guest27116> I will try that, thank you
[14:53] <Guest27116> It's giving me timeouts, I'm afraid
[14:57] <lordievader> Right, so your provider is not responding to router solicitations. What kind of instructions has your ISP given?
[14:57] <lordievader> Or actually, do they support v6?
[14:59] <Guest27116> They do support IPv6 but do not have specific instructions. Booting Win10 has IPv6 work just fine, as well as using a router in between the wall and the PC
[15:00] <Guest27116> The router firmware makes IPv6 setup a bit confusing, but it's set to use "DHCP-PD" as well as "Stateless"?
[15:00] <lordievader> Is it supposed to do SLAAC? Or is the Windows machine setup to do DHCPv6?
[15:00] <Guest27116> I believe it's DHCPv6, yes
[15:01] <lordievader> Ah, then it makes sense that you don't get a router advertisement.
[15:02] <lordievader> Unfortunately I have never done anything with DHCPv6 as I try to stay away from it ;)
[15:02] <lordievader> The ubuntu wiki has something about it though: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DHCPv6
[15:04] <Guest27116> That's from 2011, would that even still be applicable?
[15:05] <lordievader> Don't think `dhclient` changed much in this regard.
[15:12] <Guest27116> So Ubuntu/Kubuntu 19.10 assumes SLAAC for IPv6 autoconfiguration, then?
[15:14] <lordievader> More or less all ipv6 enabled devices assume SLAAC since that is easy.
[15:14] <lordievader> I wouldn't really call DHCPv6 "autoconfiguration".
[15:17] <Guest27116> I'm mostly confused as to why it fails only when I plug Kubuntu straight into the wall, while the router and Windows picks it up
[15:18] <Guest27116> Searching around I've seen people mention that the firewall might be getting in the way of DHCPv6 as well
[15:18] <Guest27116> Not sure how to check that
[15:20] <lordievader> Probably. If DHCPv6 still uses the UDP 67|68 ports a firewall may well drop those packets.
[15:22] <Guest27116> DHCPv6 uses UDP port 546, apparently
[15:23] <Guest27116> on the client side, that is
[15:28] <Guest27116> Would there be any log files that could tell me what went wrong?
[15:50] <Guest27116> Okay, having looked into it more, the likely issue seems to be the firewall blocking necessary communication. That, or my ISP has done something real weird with their IPv6 deployment. Thank you for your help!
[15:51] <Guest27116> I'm going to try configuring the firewall and see if that helps
[16:15] <Guest30792> Hello, I'm the user from before with the IPv6 issue. For testing purposes I disabled the firewall (having failed to add the appropriate rules) and IPv6 works now. Mystery solved, thank you again for your help!

[19:37] <ZeZu> after switching desktops to kde/plasma,  I get the same windows open each time I login ... nothing new there, except it's always old windows from the first time I shutdown/reboot.   Also,  sometimes settings don't stick, and not even talking about system settings.  Applications that i'm not even sure use Qt || KDE.   I've seen this happen before but I don't remember the cause to fix it.
