diogenes_Abu Shaan do you have ethernet with cable?07:04
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> do you need the link which i used to make the wifi work. because before i installed rtl8723bu driver ,the module is loading 5.3.0-26-generic driver.. i blacklisted it to not load07:05
diogenes_aaaah that's why.07:06
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> do you need that link?07:06
diogenes_yes07:07
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> https://easylinuxtipsproject.blogspot.com/p/realtek.html07:09
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> in the link go to number 6 , which is for my adapter...07:09
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> previously when i tested mint once i ran into the same issue and i used this article..07:11
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> @diogenes_, Yes i have , using a usb adapter cos this laptop only have wifi and no ethernet port... that y i want to fix this...07:12
lordievaderGood morning07:12
diogenes_Abu Shaan you've built it from github with sudo make install, i never liked this method, i always make a package and investigate what things it installes, after sudo make install i consider the system altered, if you still have the source directory, you can do: sudo make uninstall, unblacklist the original driver and we could see what we can do.07:18
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> not an issue i took a snapshot before doing that.. i can roll back..07:19
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> i will restore to that point and will contact you07:21
diogenes_ok07:22
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> @diogenes_, I rolled back. .. now its like the new installation.. its not connecting to wifi...08:35
lordievaderDo you see the networks?08:40
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> i am seeing only one SSId.. (i have many ssids around) i am trying to connect that but it stays in configuring interface for some time and disconnecting08:42
lordievaderWhat is the output of `sudo iw dev <your interface name> scan`?08:42

pragomerhi :-)   can you help me: how can I remove a theme in kubuntu 18.04 ? : http://i.imgur.com/ycF4DlE.png09:15
pragomerthere is no "remove button"09:15
diogenes_pragomer, remove it from /usr/share/themes09:17
pragomerthey are not saved there: http://i.imgur.com/fr0XSsF.png09:17
pragomerI already checked that .. Mm...09:17
pragomerah.. perhaps... in user folder... wait...09:18
diogenes_pragomer, ls ~/.themes09:18

pragomerThank you both very much09:20
diogenes_oh well plasma does things differently.09:20
lordievaderAbu Shaan: Do you happen to have another OS on the system?09:21
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> Do you mean previoulsy or concurrently?09:21
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> currently the system is running only this OS09:22
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> Kubuntu 19.1009:22
qiho/ all. With Kubuntu 19.10 & ATI w/HDMI everytime I reboot, I have to execute 'pavucontrol' and manually select my RS780 HDMI audio card to get functioning Audio on the Desktop. Is this a known issue?09:23
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> any hope guys .. i badly need this or else i am stuck with windows 7... i needto switch to kubuntu...09:30
diogenes_Abu Shaan try live manjaro or clear linux.09:33
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> manjaro has kde plasma right?09:38
diogenes_Abu Shaan it has everything as any other modern distro, though i neither like manjaro nor using it but it has latest firmware.09:41
OerHeksnot the channel to suggest an other distro ..09:42
diogenes_OerHeks, it's a channel to help, not a distro racism.09:43
OerHeksoh, the racism card .. nice going09:45
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> @oerheks.. Diogenes is just trying to help.. I am stuck with this issue for more than a week..  its like a loop....😖09:47
OerHeksthis disconnect problem, have you tried to restart your router??09:47
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> yes multiple times...09:48
diogenes_OerHeks, there are several approaches to help people, first you try to help within the distro, if that doesn't help then you go to 3rd party sources, if that fails you try something else and as the last resourse you suggest to try some rolling leading edge distros.09:49
lordievaderAbu Shaan: What is the output of `sudo lspci -k`?09:51
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/yfnmTpRQ2D/09:53
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> oops .... sorry...09:55
lordievaderNo listed network interface?09:59
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/mQrS6TzJ2r/ see this result od lshw -c network10:04
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> you can see in the wlan.. the driver loaded is generic... if i install my required driver all wifi ssids are showing and also the i am able to connect to wifi during the boot...10:05
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> But after that if i lock or logout the session or connect to other ssid the same issue occurs...10:06
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> it is generating the same logs ... and not connecting.. When i restart it connects...10:07
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> seems a very strange issue10:08
lordievader"rtl8xxxu" doesn't sound very generic to me. Do you have the `linux-firmware` package installed?10:10
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> how to check that?10:12
lordievader`dpkg -l|grep linux-firmware`10:15
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> yes  1.183.310:16
lordievaderAh, now I dig some further I see what you mean with the generic driver. With the required driver you mean the RTL8723BU one?10:20
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> Yes10:20
lordievaderDid you blacklist the rtl8xxxu one?10:21
lordievaderAnd regenerated the initrd?10:22
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> I did blacklist before then i rolled back the changes using timeshift10:31
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> when i use rtl8723bu i facing another issue as i said before10:34
* lordievader wonders what the logs say at that point10:34
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> Fwd from Abu Shaan: https://easylinuxtipsproject.blogspot.com/p/realtek.html10:35
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> Fwd from Abu Shaan: in the link go to number 6 , which is for my adapter...10:35
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> I used the above link to overcome driver rtl8****u driver issue10:36
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> @IrcsomeBot, The same error in the log10:36
lordievaderThe same authentication timeout, you mean?10:38
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> Yes10:38
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> It is connecting during boot .. after lock or logout the same error10:39
lordievaderStill with the same rtl8723bu driver, or did it revert back to the rtl8xxxu one?10:40
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> Still with rtl8723bu driver10:41
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> After every reboot its connecting..10:42
lordievaderHrmm, well I'm out of ideas. I'd go out and buy a new adapter or plug in a cable. Those Realtek stuff are always hit or miss.10:45
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> Thanks.. the issue the system dont have ethernet port.. and i have 8 similar laptops i am trying to switch from windows 7..10:47
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> Any ways .  Thanks for the help.. lordievader and diogenes..10:48
IrcsomeBot2<Abu Shaan> I wil try manjaro and see if its working..10:48
lordievaderNo worries, too bad we couldn't be of more help.10:48

Rabid_Ravenhi guys, if waking from sleep doesn't work in kubuntu with a nvidia gpu, should I even bother to try to fix it?13:39
=== Rabid_Roach is now known as Rabid_Raven
diogenes_Rabid_Roach, if it's proprietary nvidia driver then i'd not bother.13:52
Rabid_Ravendiogenes_, good. i just needed some confirmation14:03
Rabid_Raveni hate this damned driver14:03
Rabid_Ravenworks well in linux but when it comes to do the basics... sleeping/waking, ugh14:03
diogenes_Rabid_Raven, so why not using nouveau then?14:03
Rabid_Ravendiogenes_, it completely kills performance on my 970m14:04
diogenes_Rabid_Raven, there is a little trick to boost nouveau performance for arounf 70%14:04
Rabid_Ravenand there's no way to game with that14:04
diogenes_i play with nouveau just fine.14:04
Rabid_Ravendiogenes_, on older chips but apparently, the 9xxm line can't be re-clocked14:05
diogenes_mine is 650m14:05
diogenes_newest nvidia driver doesn't even support my card anymore :)14:06
Rabid_Ravenyeah, that's a dick move by nvidia14:06
Rabid_Ravenit's not that old either14:06
Rabid_Ravenit's still like that which discourages me from ever using proprietary code14:07
Rabid_Ravenmy laptop is a late 2014 model but it does a wonderful job. if manufacturers had their way, i'd buy a new one but it does the job so why should i14:07
diogenes_agree14:08
Rabid_Ravenhmmm14:13
Rabid_Raveni just read something14:13
Rabid_RavenWith version 1.0.15 there is a patch for GTX 970 with 4GB and accelerations of Pascal to Maxwell 2 Level.14:13
Rabid_Ravenfrom wikipedia14:13
Rabid_Ravendoes this mean i can technically re-clock my 970m?14:13
diogenes_Rabid_Raven, that's a question for #nouveau guys, they know how those things work even better than nvidia's engineers.14:14
Rabid_Ravenexcellent. thank you kindly for all your assistance and the decent morning conversation :)14:15
diogenes_you're always welcome :)14:15

IrcsomeBot2<Zen40> How to install packet tracer 730. It seems that you are told to install qt-at-spi but it says the qt-at-spi package is a candidate installation how to fix it16:28
IrcsomeBot2<Zen40> Sory my english bad16:28
IrcsomeBot2<Alessandro> @Zen40, it's hard to understand what you mean, what's your favorite language zen ?16:34
IrcsomeBot2<Zen40> I am indonesian16:37
IrcsomeBot2<Zen40> If my language is difficult to understand what if I send a screenshot ??16:40
IrcsomeBot2<Alessandro> @Zen40, mhhh, I think there is not an indonesian channel support … So let's try to understand what's your problem … You are trying to install a package, right ?, what's the name of the package ?16:43
IrcsomeBot2<Zen40> Packet Tracer 73016:44
IrcsomeBot2<Alessandro> @Zen40, okay, what OS and version you are using ?16:45
IrcsomeBot2<Zen40> Kubuntu 19.1016:46
IrcsomeBot2<Alessandro> @Zen40, So have you already download the software I guess, what kind of file did you get ?16:49
IrcsomeBot2<Zen40> PacketTracer_730_amd64.deb16:53
IrcsomeBot2<Alessandro> @Zen40, so it's a .deb package, and you get some error installing it with gdebi (by default) ?16:57
IrcsomeBot2<Zen40> I try from dpkg16:58
IrcsomeBot2<Zen40> dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of packettracer: …  packettracer depends on qt-at-spi; however: …   Package qt-at-spi is not installed.16:58
IrcsomeBot2<Zen40> zen@zen-Aspire:~/Downloads$ sudo apt install qt-at-spi … Reading package lists... Done … Building dependency tree        … Reading state information... Done … Package qt-at-spi is not available, but is referred to by another package. … This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or … is only available from another source … E: Package 'qt-at-spi' has no installation candidate16:59
IrcsomeBot2<Alessandro> @Zen40, I think the problem is that qt-at-spi has not yet be ported to qt5, that's why 'is missing' on the repo of Kubuntu 19.1017:01
IrcsomeBot2<Alessandro> @Zen40, have you try to search "qt-at-spi" on muon package manager ?17:05
IrcsomeBot2<Zen40> In the muon package manager also does not exist17:06
IrcsomeBot2<Alessandro> @Zen40, very strange , I'm on Kubuntu 18.04 and I have "qt-at-spi" installed, so I guess you cannot run yet the Packet Tracer 730 on Kubuntu 19.10, for some reason they remove it from the repository17:09
IrcsomeBot2<Zen40> If I add the 18.04 repository can I install it ??17:10
IrcsomeBot2<Alessandro> @Zen40, mhhh, I think you will mess up everything, I think on Kubuntu 19.10 they remove support for QT4  while in Kubuntu 18.04 is still supported as I can see17:12
IrcsomeBot2<Zen40> Mmmm. Maybe I'll do it via virtualbox17:14
IrcsomeBot2<Zen40> Actually I prefer LTs but in my Ryzen Amd it doesn't boot17:15
IrcsomeBot2<Zen40> Alright, thank you for your help17:16
IrcsomeBot2<Alessandro> @Zen40, you're welcome Zen17:21
IrcsomeBot2<Shreddies> Can't log in like normal. My sister had a separate account and it wouldn't log in with the right password, so I pressed the power off button and got tons of errors. Shut down again and now I get this instead of the log in screen. Anybody know what to do? Thanks!18:06

tomreynShreddies: reset the bios to vendor (optimized) defaults.18:09
tomreynthis is a linux kernel being unable to properly communicate with the bios / uefi via ACPI, which can mean that is in an improper state.18:10
tomreynthe mainboarrd firmware (BIOS/UEFI), that is.18:10
IrcsomeBot2<Shreddies> Is this complicated to do.I think I may have caused it by having too many tabs open on Firefox on my account again :/18:11
tomreynhaving a lot of tabs open should not cause this to happen unless there is another (depper) problem18:11
tomreyn* deeper / lower layer18:12
IrcsomeBot2<Shreddies> @tomreyn, Oh ok.thanks18:12
IrcsomeBot2<Shreddies> @tomreyn, Do I need to go into Windows to reset the bios to vendor? Or can I do it by going into the terminal?18:14
tomreynyou can usually do it right after powering up the computer by pressing a certain key. usually this is delete or F218:16
tomreynif you are dual-booting with windows then you could also look for a bios update to maybe prevent this from happening again18:17
tomreynthis part is usually most easily done from windows probably, thiough it may also be possible from kubuntu. it depends a lot on the hardware you have there,18:18

ubottuShreddies: To add a one-time or permanent kernel boot parameter see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBootParameters21:35
tomreynyour screenshot already shows workarounds for ACPI issues. have you tried a BIOS upgrade?21:37
tomreynShreddies: in the future, don't just long press the power off button, that's not healthy to your hardware nor your file systems. instead, switch to a text console (TTY) and press ctrl-alt-del there.21:38
tomreyn!tty21:38
ubottuTo get to the TTY terminals 3-6, use the keystroke Ctrl + Alt + F3-F6 respectively. Ctrl-Alt-F2 or Ctrl-Alt-F1 will get you back to your graphical login (Ctrl-Alt-F7 on 16.04). To change TTY resolution, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ChangeTTYResolution21:38
tomreynand if this doesn't work, do this instead:21:39
tomreyn!sysrq21:39
ubottuIn an emergency, you may be able to shutdown cleanly and reboot by holding down Alt+PrintScreen and typing slowly, in succession, S, U and B. For an explanation, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key21:39
IrcsomeBot2<Shreddies> @tomreyn, Yes I think with you but it was too complicated for me and very slow22:02
tomreynShreddiesi see. so you got it up and running again?22:03
tomreynShreddies: ^22:07
tomreyn"acpi_mask_gpe=0x6f" is an interesting workaround for such buggy BIOSes, i wasn't aware of this. which hardware do you have there actually?22:07
IrcsomeBot2<Shreddies> @tomreyn, Well I went to 2 Linux meetups in 2 different countries lol , the 1st they didn't know & didn't want to work on BIOS the 2nd they tried a few things and pc mainly was slowing down & freezing because I had waayyy too many tabs.I reduced the amount of tabs and it stopped the freezes.But I do have a tendency to get "too many tabs syndrome" 🤦‍♀ Reading the article, thanks!22:08
tomreynShreddies: you didn't say whether it can boot again. but if it does, can you tell what is the output of    journalctl -b | grep 'DMI:'   (run in a terminal)?22:10
IrcsomeBot2<Shreddies> @tomreyn, I'll let you know!22:15
