quetzaldiogenes_: i don't understand05:26

diogenes_quetzal, open nautilus file manager.05:27
quetzalyes diogenes_05:27
diogenes_press ctrl+h to see hidden folders05:28
quetzali can do it using konsole05:28
quetzali have to change the name of folder '.kde' ? :/05:28
diogenes_yes you can, in terminal just do: mv ~/.kde ~/.kde.bak05:29
quetzalah okey now i understand05:29
quetzalokey i did it05:29
diogenes_and switch back to kde.05:29
quetzalok05:30
quetzalsee you now05:30
quetzalhi diogenes_, now i'm on plasma desktop but the desktop is black, i can open konversation and so using Krun (alt+f2) but the desktop is all black05:38
quetzalmaybe i have to remove the last widget i installed05:39
diogenes_quetzal, is the panel, desktop icons showing up?05:39
quetzaldiogenes_: nothing is showing up05:39
quetzalpanels, wallpaper and so is all black05:40
quetzali have no icons on my desktop05:40
quetzalbut the screen is all black, except if i run an application using Alt+f205:40
diogenes_yeah the remove what you installed05:40
quetzalthen i can see the application but not the panels and so of my plasma desktop05:41
quetzali can't not do, for example, right click, on the black screen05:41
quetzalthere is no reaction05:41
valoriethe ~/.kde folder is used for almost nothing now05:41
valorieimo you want to remove "fokus"05:42
valorieand restart05:42
valoriequetzal: ^^^05:42
quetzalyes i think that may be the easy way valorie05:42
diogenes_valorie, then where is plasma config?05:42
quetzalbut i dont know how to remove this widget if i cant use plasma05:43
valoriein ~/.config05:43
diogenes_~/.config/kde?05:43
valorierenaming all of ./config seems extreme05:43
valoriediogenes_: why not look in your ~/.config ?05:44
valorieloads of stuff in there05:44
valorieonly kde4 stuff is in ~/.kde05:44
diogenes_valorie, because i use xfce :)05:44
valorieah05:44
valoriesounds like 'fokus' is the entire issue05:45
diogenes_that's kinda messy of kde team to spread the configs all over the place instead of keeping all in one folder.05:46
quetzalsome times i had a similar problem with anothers widgets i test but when i restarted the session then the probleme was over. This time i restarted but the problem persist05:46
quetzali'm using 20.04LTS05:46
valoriehttps://store.kde.org/p/1308861/ has lots of complaints05:46
valoriediogenes_: that is the standard05:47
valorieplasma team just went along with that05:47
valoriethey aren't all over the place05:47
valorieconfigs are all in config05:47
valoriequetzal: 20.04 will not be an LTS until this summer05:48
valorieright now, it is not even in beta05:48
valoriesupport for 20.04 is in #ubuntu+105:48
quetzalthe widget was working well when i was using over the wallpaper, but when i tried to insert in a panel then it crashed05:48
valorieit sounds like that widget has some serious issues05:48
valorieand you are using it in pre-beta05:49
quetzal04 is april, is just a month05:49
valoriewe do not support it yet -- 20.04 is for testing05:49
valoriewe support released software here05:49
quetzalokey05:50
quetzalthanks05:50
valoriesympathy for your difficulty05:51
valorieI hope you have good backups05:51
quetzali'm just testing is not a problem05:53
quetzali finally solved the probleme, this is what i did:07:01
quetzal1. mv .config .config.bak07:02
quetzal2. then plasmashell worked with a default desktop and i removed the fokus widget07:02
quetzal3. mv .config.bak .config07:02
quetzalthen i restarted, i reinstalled fokus and i can use this widget in all ways except when i try to insert to a huge panel, if the panel is slim then it works but if I try to put it in a huge panel then it crash again07:04

IrcsomeBot<Alessandro> I'm testing Kubuntu 20.04 and doing an upgrade right now I got this error at the end of it  … E: /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/plymouth failed with return 1. … update-initramfs: failed for /boot/initrd.img-5.4.0-14-generic with 1. … Maybe it will be a problem to restart the system with kernel 5.4.0-14-generic ? … Should I find a way to fix it before I restart my machine ?16:43
BluesKajAlessandro, I had a similar error, but so far there's no fix on 20.04, however I have rebooted successfully even with the error still in place16:45
ailionIrcsomeBot: You can restart.16:47
ailionIf there's anything wrong, paste the error message.16:47
BluesKajthis my error, but not everyone has the exact same error afaik https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/wDSsdSh2YQ/16:48
IrcsomeBot<Alessandro> @BluesKaj, Yes BluesKaj, I got the exact same error except for the language used 😊 … Anyway if I will not have problem to restart the system it's okay, I'm sure it will be fixed soon. Thanks 👍16:53
BluesKaj Alessandro, it does affect some terminal apps like alsamixer16:59
IrcsomeBot<Alessandro> @BluesKaj, Okay BluesKaj thanks, I usually don't use it but probably I'll discover some other problem  related to it 😊17:13
user|71338Hi users, I have such a technical question. I read the news, on April 19, the version ended, and 19.10 replaced it. the essence of the question: is the version being updated from under Kubuntu itself, or is it necessary to completely reinstall the latest version?17:25

konradosHello. I'm 99% sure I could change the caret blinking rate in kubuntu 16.x, now I just can't find it in the settings in 18.x, where could that go?20:50
konradosI mean this vertical line flashing, a cursor, caret, the frequency it appears and disappears and appears and disappears and appears and.... etc :)20:50
konradosI believe my wording is bad, because I can't find anything in google either o.O20:51
konradosYou know, when you write something somewhere in a text editor, what is this thing flashing called? The thing which tells us where exactly is the focus?20:52
=== dilfridge is now known as vacuum
IrcsomeBot<blooalien> @konrados, "cursor"20:55
konradosIrcsomeBot, yeah, but when I google 'cursor flashing frequency' everything is about the mouse o.O20:55
konradoshmmm, I don't know what cursor is and now I'm talking to bots :)20:56
bpromptkonrados:  tis ok, the channel Bot has a PhD, so is licensed for psychotherapy, so feel free, it's all good, sorry we don't have any plushtoy to give you to squeeze it20:59
konradosbprompt, :) :) no worries, I have my own, squeezing right now :)21:00
