[00:15] <dcompiler> Trying to install the official AMDGPU drivers and I keep getting "WARNING: amdgpu dkms failed for running kernel"
[00:32] <oerheks> you should already have amdgpu, standard
[00:32] <oerheks> or ddi you try to install amdgpu-pro?
[00:54] <dcompiler> @oerheks I was installing amdgpu-pro

[03:16] <viewer|21> "missing vpn plugin"
[03:21] <viewer|21> are you all dead?
 hmmm
 weird
 Hey guys! Just checking, is everybody in the Kubuntu team fine? Thinking of the CoVid19 situation.
 @viewer|21, Hi viewer! Had the same problem.
 Found out that openvpn has to be installed.
 The menu says it is there but it actually is not.
 Simple "sudo apt install openvpn" might do it.
 @Linuxophil, @RikMills
 @Linuxophil, Not dead yet
 :P
 LOL
 But seriously.
 Healthwise all OK in the team?
 As far as I know :)
 Sending all the best to the devs of my favorite distro!
 TY
 Will there be an upgrade path available from 18.04 and/or 20.04 from day one or explicitly at a later time?
 Ubuntu won't turn on upgrades until perhaps the 1st point release time. You can obviously force them, but that is your risk
 So no, we won't be shouting 'upgrade' on day 1
 sorry, going back to 😴for a bit
[07:14] <lordievader> Good morning
 Morning
 @FailBacon, Good Afternoon
 hello guys u know the freezing problem still happening even after installing blackports
 my kernel is up to date, ram is 3 gb without swap i dont what s causing the freeze but i think when the cpu reaches 100 percent load it causes i dont know if it s true so every time i have to reboot through tty2 btw is there any command to read system log which causes the problem in tty2 that way i can find the problem,       my pc has intel pentium inside 3 gb ram dual boot 140 gb each
 @dibakarmandal, When I typed that it was 8:17 am here...
 i m on kubuntu 18.4 lts
 nowadays it s happening a lop tried some solutions on internet but nothing worked          also on ubuntu i had this problem so  i think it s hardware related
 might me old cpu but dont know😞😞
[09:35] <masonbee-M> How old is the CPU (p3?)
 (Photo, 1280x720) https://irc-attachments.kde.org/3UDVhNcE/file_26044.jpg
 Are you on Kubuntu or Ubuntu, because a fresh install of Kubuntu will set the Ballo filesystem indexer running which can max out the CPU and without swap might cause the problem. Have you tried balooctl disable to stop the indexer and if that is the problem then cpulimit might help.
 i was on ubuntu and now switched to kubuntu clean install
 @FailBacon, Ohh
[09:41] <masonbee-M> Probably the first thing I would do is insert a usb and enable swap on it just to make sure but try the baloo disable method. I had problems with it last year. You CPU shouldbe fine.
 @dibakarmandal, I don't live in America or where you come from xD
 @FailBacon, India
 Oof
 (Photo, 1280x720) https://irc-attachments.kde.org/wX4iw40I/file_26045.jpg sorry masonbee a noob question but swap shouldn t be done only on low ram PCs as i have so much free memory , will u suggest the swap
 While this is true Linux is still set up for swap by default. It is also used for things like suspend as well as far as i know (eg; the memory gets written to swap and then read off again at startup). In general I use a swap size the same as my ram and then turn swappiness down using https://masonbee.nz/change-swappiness-to-use-ram-instead-of-the-swapfile/ instead of killing it all together.
[09:57] <masonbee-M> Doesn't the output there say you do have swap? I thought you said you didn't.
 @masonbee-M> <METHD3ALER, sorry i forgot i had swap
 now what should i do
 i have swap i ve disabled balooctl rebooted  the freeze still happening
 should i try limit cpu?
[11:28] <BluesKaj> Hi folks
[11:39] <theMetamorphosis> Hi
[11:43] <BluesKaj> hi theMetamorphosis
 At this point you want to see if you can figure out what is going wrong with it. Using top might give you an idea if you have some out of control process with a little bit of warning. There is also the Ksystemlog viewer in Kubuntu that would be worth checking out. Unfortunately, I haven't really dealt with system crashes that much and the two times I have the first was where it would crash under ubuntu but
[12:00] <masonbee-M> not opensuse and the second was a problem with the bios that I fixed by updating the bios (Danger. Can brick computer.). Both were a bugger because the crashes stopped the logs being written so the last thing I saw was the part before the crash. Sorry I can't be more helpful. Does anyone else have some ideas?
[12:02] <BluesKaj> masonbee-M, wrong how?
 okay another thing today i was listening a song on youtube and downloading a file (it was 70% downloaded) and then the freeze occured but the song was still playing so waited for  5 min and after i rebooted my pc and guess what the file was downloaded 100%
 i ll wait for next release for 32 bit
[12:29] <lordievader> methd3aler: how full is your ram?
 @masonbee-M> <METHD3ALER, thanks though
 (Photo, 1280x720) https://irc-attachments.kde.org/cZPzdjaA/file_26045.jpg .
 @lordievader, ^
 i dont use heavy stuff
[12:32] <lordievader> i meant just before a freeze
 i dont know but i dont think the ram is the problem
[12:41] <lordievader> 3Gb of ram is not much these days.
[12:41] <lordievader> Did you check the smart values of your hard drive?
 @lordievader, I THINK I SOLVED THE ISSUE
 CHANGED RENDERING BACKEND FROM  OPENGL TO XRENDER😃😃
[13:10] <lordievader> What video card do you have?
[13:10] <lordievader> (And what does dmesg say?)
 @lordievader, Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller
[13:16] <lordievader> And dmesg?
[13:16] <lordievader> Does it report driver crashes?
 no
 it s been 1 hour and till now no freeze
 will let u know if it happens again
 now it makes sense why music was playing in backgroud and downloading  was working while my screen was frozen
[14:56] <Roey> hi
[14:57] <Roey> I find myself doing this every few months: https://pastebin.com/WEDenMcB  Is this common?
[14:57] <Roey> (to reclaim disk space)
  Excellent! Hopefully that was it.
[18:13] <Roey> for those people here who say "aye" on IRC, why do you use it?
 @masonbee-M> <METHD3ALER, been 6 hoiu
[20:41] <johnone> Hi Folks, I'm trying to burn a CD with K3B. When I click burn it comes up with an error that says " cdrecord has no permission to open the device " and " modify device settings in K3B ". How do I modify device settings? can't find settings .s. ".
[20:47] <theMetamorphosis> johnone Try this: sudo chmod 4711 /usr/bin/wodim; sudo chmod 4711 /usr/bin/cdrdao
[20:47] <theMetamorphosis> What is the distro you are running?
[22:18] <valorie> Roey: because IRC is the best, bar none
[22:18] <valorie> on the phone: signal
[22:19] <valorie> or telegram for bridged chans
[22:19] <valorie> irc on the phone suuuuuuucks
[22:19] <Roey> ;)
[23:09] <faLUCE> hello. How can I run a python script on linux by clicking with the mouse on it?
 echo "#/usr/bin/python3" > hw.py
 echo "print('Hello World')" >> hw.py
 chmod +x hw.py
 you now have a python script that can run when clicked in dolphin
