[00:49] <rangergord> How do I disable automatic updates in Kubuntu? Discover is locking apt and prevents me from installing packages from the CLI. I don't want to update every package to make Discover happy. I want to keep using CLI apt.
[00:52] <rangergord> can I just remove Discover?
 Hello everyone!
 how do i reset my kde settings to default?

[06:00] <JackFrost> You might want to reset that.

[11:47] <BluesKaj> Hi folks
[13:01] <Kangarooo> i started using daily 20.04 Kubuntu, but some things arent up in ubuntu. How to find for future and what KDE versions have 18.04.04 and 19.10. Should i better for month use 18 or 19 ubuntu? Can i get latests 5.19 Kde in them?
[13:01] <Kangarooo> I dont want to use Ubuntu at all, but if not getting 5.19 then maybe will ubuntu and not Kubuntu.
[13:18] <BluesKaj> Kangarooo, depends what you need, but Kubuntu 20.04 is working well for my needs
[13:25] <plut4rch> i feel like its a rite of passage that you break your linux distro at least once and have to spend ages fixing it or at least completely reinstalling it
[13:36] <Kangarooo> what versions they have of KDE?
[14:23] <user|40154> hi is it possible to install on a 32bit not pae pc?
 Hi everyone, I'm testing 20.04 since a month about and it seems to be already "usable" and stable, but of course sometimes strange things happens. For example today I tried to open Akregator as I normally do but I couldn't find it anymore, it seems like it has been removed but I didn't, is that normal ?
[14:52] <Kangarooo> Kubutu has 5.12
 @Alessandro, PIM has been dropped from the default install. I guess you must have allowed apt to autoremove it
 @RikMills, I cleaned the system with autoremove days ago but I didn't notice akregator on the list , but probably it was there, anyway I reinstall back and seems to work normally, same settings, same feeds. … Thanks for this info Rik 😉
 Yeah, it would have been there. It was one of the packages I dropped from the kubuntu-desktop 'recommends'
 @RikMills, Good to know Rik, many thanks
[16:29] <EvilRoey> hi
[16:29] <EvilRoey> I am having this exact problem: https://www.dell.com/community/XPS/Dell-XPS-13-9343-Ubuntu-18-04-frequent-freezes/td-p/6207266
[19:08] <Letterus> Hi everyone. Can you tell me if the next LTS version of Kubuntu will support 32bit architectures as the last one or is that finally dropped?
 kpop is just kde pop
[19:52] <konrados> Hello. So there is this app - called 'klipper' ('Clipboard content'). Where we can see previous ctrl+c items. Which is cool etc. Now I discovered the 'actions' functionality, where we can run some command basing on what's in the clipboard. But... where is this information stored? I can't see it anywhere in ~
[19:52] <konrados> I even tried a trick - I added a new action, clicked OK, and listed all the files modified in the last 2 minutes - `find / -mount  -mmin -2` and... there is nothing related to this app o.O How is this possible?
[19:56] <jukebohi> This is a bummer
[19:56] <jukebohi> Need to reboot every few hours due to swap going to 2/2GB
[19:57] <jukebohi> I have 16GB RAM and have just few hundred browser tabs open, this is not reasonable
[19:59] <oerheks>  few hundred browser tabs open  .. really?
[20:14] <mparillo> Letterus: I believe 20.04 will not ship a 32-bit ISO.
[20:19] <Letterus> mparillo: thank you. but do you know if there will be 32bit packages built?
[20:19] <Letterus> otherwise I should switch to Debian if I want a 32 bit KDE, hm?

[20:30] <rangergord> jukebohi, if I were you I'd disable swap altogether. It's unreasonable for a desktop to need to swap if you have 16GB RAM
[20:30] <rangergord> let apps crash, identify culprits, purge them
 I strongly disagree. You should always have *some* swap
 The kernel does not operate well if you have zero swap, under memory pressure, no matter how much RAM you have.
[20:31] <rangergord> popeydc: why? All it does is delay the discovery of apps that are overusing RAM
[20:32] <rangergord> I've had swap disabled in my desktop VMs (used for software development) since forever. Never had an issue.
 Because under load, the kernel goes into meltdown and locks the machine up
 That's nice for you. I have disabled swap and seen very significant issues when under memory pressure.
[20:32] <rangergord> the way I think, I want applications to fail with out of memory errors, then I see who's hogging the memory and either fix the root cause or not use that app again
[20:32] <rangergord> you shouldnt have memory pressure on a 16GB desktop
 hah! I upgraded from 16 to 32 because I ran low
[20:33] <rangergord> really? what do you do on it?
 "Nobody ever needed more than 640K is effectively what you said"
 development and VMs
[20:33] <rangergord> and billy g was right
[20:33] <rangergord> same as me then
 aside from the fact he never said it
[20:34] <rangergord> I know what my apps need...and if it's suddenly not enough, then better I find out immediately if not soon
 Not everyone has that kind of control on their apps. Disk is cheap, a small amount of swap doesn't hurt at all.
[20:34] <rangergord> Can anyone here tell me how to disable automatic updates for Kubuntu, while still allowing terminal apt updates? Can I safely remove Discover?
[20:35] <rangergord> how small? 100MB enough?
 I'd typically have a few GB
 I have 2GB here with 32GB RAM
 Hello. I accidentally removed some system needed packages. Is there a command to install all system packages again?
 there is..
[20:36] <rangergord> what's this IrcsomeBot a bridge to? another kubuntu channel on another network?
 `sudo apt install kubuntu-desktop^`
 telegram, i guess
 @stppls ^ that command will re-install everything that should be there, not the caret on the end,
 @popeydc, 🍀 Thank you.
 np

[21:02] <Letterus> hm, these spam messages are quite annoying
[21:02] <Letterus> so, last question: are you going to built 32 bit packages after 2021 or will 32 bit support be dropped at all by the end of 18.04 LTS?
