user|78297Hii. I new to Kubuntu. Im currently using 18.04LTS version. I need to upgrade to Latest  Kubuntu 19.10. How to do that?05:45
diogenes_!upgrade05:49
ubottuFor upgrading instructions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EoanUpgrades/Kubuntu05:49
user|78297Thanks05:56
lordievaderGood morning06:08
valoriediogenes_: if you upgrade to 19.10 in just a couple of weeks you'll be able to upgrade to 20.04 which this summer when the .1 is released, becomes the LTS06:10
valorieif you care about that06:10
valorieit's already in beta06:10
valoriewe're testing the beta now06:10
diogenes_valorie, thanks but it wasn't my question, i answered <user|78297>'s question )06:16
valorieoops, sorry06:16
valorienow I see06:16
valorieI shouldn't try to do two things at once06:16
valorie:-)06:16
diogenes_happens to everyone.06:17
MrokiiHello. A long time ago I installed Chrome Apps, and even though I don't use Chrome anymore, there is still a "Chrome Apps" entry in Kubuntus' standard Apps-Menu. How can I remove that?07:15
alterjsiveany reason pulseaudio would have less features in 19.10 as in 18.04? I can't create a virtual output device08:01
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> Someone knows why I Make changes on Nvidia proprietary drivers on i3 and they are not persistent? I have to apply them every time I reboot08:40
alterjsiveI had to delete my xorg.conf using the latest nvidia drivers. If I don't I get a black screen.08:42
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> I have no xorg.conf!08:42
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> That's the strange thing08:42
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> I tried to create one and.. i have black screen08:42
alterjsiveIrcsomeBot: why am I talking to a bot lol08:44
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> Because I am talking fron telegram08:44
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> :')08:44
alterjsiveah k :)08:45
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> Do you have any ideas why this happens? … I save the configuration and I create a xorg.conf file starting nvidia-settings with root permission08:45
alterjsiveyeah normally you use nvidia settings to write your config to your X server configuration file08:46
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> After that I have just a black screen08:46
alterjsiveIrcsomeBot: I think it's a bug of the nvidia-settings configuration utility or a driver bug08:47
alterjsiveI didn't try it yet but I think you should be able to switch profile maybe using sudo prime-select intel08:48
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> What's that?08:48
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> I don't have a Notebook with dual gpu08:49
alterjsiveyou can switch to save power08:49
alterjsiveah k08:49
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> My card doesn't support prime either08:49
alterjsivemaybe you could ask for help at #nvidia08:49
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> But I can set performance via nvidia-settings08:49
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> I will try there.. Thanks08:50
alterjsivelet me know if you have any luck08:50
alterjsiveno problem08:50
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> But I have to mention that I have this problem just with i308:50
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> Not with plasma08:50
alterjsivewhat is i3?08:52
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> I3 window manager08:53
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> But maybe I had just luck.. Many people have this problem also on ubuntu08:53
alterjsiveIrcsomeBot: ah k08:56
alterjsiveIrcsomeBot: I think you should try an older driver using the driver manager08:59
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> I tried 435 but it didn't help09:14
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> I am using 440 now09:14
alterjsivewhat kubuntu version are you on?09:15
alterjsive4xx is pretty new stuff, not in the default repository09:15
alterjsiveafaik09:16
alterjsivebrb trying on demand mode09:17
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> What is demand mode?09:19
alterjsiveit worked :)09:19
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> I am on 19.1009:19
alterjsivePRIME render offload is the ability to have an X screen rendered by one GPU, but choose certain applications within that X screen to be rendered on a different GPU. This is particularly useful in combination with dynamic power management to leave an NVIDIA GPU powered off, except when it is needed to render select performance-sensitive applications.09:20
alterjsivehttps://askubuntu.com/questions/1201072/how-nvidia-on-demand-option-works-in-nvidia-x-server-settings09:22
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> I understand but I have just a gpu09:23
alterjsiveI'm hoping it makes my laptop less noisy because the fan doesn't need to kick in as much09:23
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> Would not be useful for me09:23
alterjsiveah right, i fergot sorry09:23
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> Np09:26
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> Btw I am waiting for an answer on #nvidia..09:27
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> Would be easier to set an automatic command to appy settings at boot09:28
alterjsiveyeah maybe09:29
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> In i3 config files you can set some automatic parameters09:29
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> But I have no idea how to set these nvidia options09:30
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> Automatically09:30
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> I could do in the i3 startup confi file: … Exec_always nvidia-settings --(option I want to add)  … But I don't know how to specify that option lol09:33

BodiroWhich philosophy has Kubuntu according to plasma-versions? 20.04 comes with 5.18. Will it stay with this during it's lifetime since this is LTS? Or will it upgrade from time to time to a higher plasma-version?10:10
RikMillsBodiro: the archive will get bugfix releases of 5.1810:11
BodiroRikMills: So it will stay with 5.18 - I would appreciate this behaviour.10:12
mparilloAnd those who do not, can sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports10:13
Bodiromparillo: Very good10:14
RikMillsBodiro: it has to. Ubuntu archive update policy does not permit us to do anything else. plus 5.19 also will require newer Qt than is in 20.04, and as yet unreleased KDE frameworks10:14
BodiroRikMills: Fine with me - I need a more stable distro with plasma, but want the second-point-releases (or whatever it is called: 5.18.5, 5.18.6 etc.).10:16
RikMillsBodiro: we have been doing the 5.12.x point releases for 18.04, and intend to do the same for 20.04. they may take a while to get done after each release, as 45 source packages in one go is a nightmare in QA and paperwork, but should happen10:18
BodiroRikMills: Fine! So I am looking forward to April 23 :-)10:19
gtsolhey10:20
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> Ok I basically solved adding to the i3 .config file a command that says to start nvidia-settings every time with force full composition on. That's not a very smart solution.. But it does the job10:23
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> Alterjsive: solved.. Well kinda10:24

user|95793i, can i install kubuntu side by side windows 1013:51
IrcsomeBot<prathamesh_d> @user|95793, yes13:52
user|95793hi, can you guide13:54
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> @Franzpow, Use nvidia-setting to create a xorg file and save/move the file to /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-nvidia.conf.  The file should contain a config line that looks something like: Option         "metamodes" "DP-0: nvidia-auto-select +0+0 {ForceCompositionPipeline=On}, DP-2: 2560x1440_144 +3840+0 {viewportin=3840x2160, ForceCompositionPipeline=On}"14:01
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> @DarinMiller, It seems I don't have that folder. Btw I wrote on i3 config file the option you said with: …  exec_always nvidia-settings --assign ="metamodes" "DP-0: nvidia-auto-select +0+0 {ForceCompositionPipeline=On}, DP-2: 2560x1440_144 +3840+0 {viewportin=3840x2160, ForceCompositionPipeline=On}"14:06
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> That is running nvidia-settings at the start14:07
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> Witht he force composition on14:07
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> It's such a dumb way to fix that... That is works lol14:08
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> You don't have this directory on your system? /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/14:08
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> Oh I found it. I was searching in the wrong folder. On the web I found another tutorial indicating etc/X11 as the target folder14:10
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> Is that different from what I've used to solve the problem?14:11
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> Do I really need to fix it that way?14:11
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> I don't have slow down at startup14:11
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> you are doing the same thing, just as adding another step.  NVidia on Ubuntu looks at 20-nvidia.conf during bootup.14:12
IrcsomeBot<prathamesh_d> @user|95793, boot into your BIOS/UEFI firmware and disable … `Secure Boot … Fast Boot` … boot into your windows 10 install, open cmd as admin, type … `powercfg -h off` … to disable fast startup and hibernation else your windows drive will be inaccessible by Linux. … now create a Kubuntu USB using Ethcher tool, boot into the USB from your BIOS/UEFI … Select Install Kubuntu, if everything goes right, it should say "in14:13
IrcsomeBotalongside Windows 10", select that option, set the size for Kubuntu root partition, 50GB is a safe bet. It should say where to install bootloader, select the main drive where windows is installed. … Done.14:13
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> I don't think you could measure the bootup difference between the built in method of using 20-nvidia.conf vs your method.   But using the built in method is "easier" once you understand it.14:14
IrcsomeBot<prathamesh_d> @DarinMiller if I reply to any of the messages of the IRC guys, does he/she get notified in their IRC client ?14:15
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> Oh Ok I will keep that in mind if I want to use this way to fix the problem. … I have a question regarding overclocking the cpu. I have overclocked my old c2duo cpu on my motherboard using auto settings. … I am currently at 20% overclock. I tried to change cpu parameter from 320 to 330 boosting it from 3.37 ghz to 3.48. … The strange part is that when I tried to boot, Bios gave me no errors but Ubuntu didn't boot up giving me a14:16
IrcsomeBotKernel panic error14:16
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> Is that a problem related to incorrect overclock parameters? Or a Kernel problem?14:17
IrcsomeBot<prathamesh_d> @Franzpow, all CPUs arent equal, some have good OCing headroom while some fail immediately.14:18
IrcsomeBot<prathamesh_d> which motherboard do you have ?14:18
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> @prathamesh_d, Yes, they will see your response with their handle.14:18
IrcsomeBot<prathamesh_d> @DarinMiller, great14:18
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> @prathamesh_d, P5Q-M or something like that. But I am actually using OC at 20% and BIOS gave me no errors at 3.48 ghz14:19
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> I am thinking that I don't set oc parameters properly14:20
IrcsomeBot<prathamesh_d> @Franzpow, i have no personal experience in OCing, but try OCing it till 10% and check the stability.14:20
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> That' fine with auto settings at 20%. I have problems if I do more14:21
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> On manual14:21
IrcsomeBot<prathamesh_d> also your reason for overclocking? I know most people do it for perf boost, but motherboard and CPU should also be considered.14:21
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> I have reasonable temperatures with OC so I was thinking to try to have more performance boosting clock14:22
