| Groar | how much time does it approximately take to install kubuntu 20.04 beta? | 08:27 |
|---|---|---|
| Groar | given the fact I have 3.2ghz, enough ram and average desktop | 08:28 |
| georgelappies | is the application store search broken lately? | 08:55 |
| georgelappies | trying to search for apps in dash or store is just hanging | 08:56 |
| lotuspsychje | Groar: install speed also depends on ssd or hdd | 10:18 |
| Groar | hdd | 10:46 |
| lotuspsychje | Groar: i would say 20-30min for an ubuntu install on hdd | 10:47 |
| lotuspsychje | for a clean install, an upgrade might take longer | 10:47 |

| MikeRL | Anyone know of how to get the on screen keyboard to only appear when touching (not clicking or keyboard selecting) a text area? | 14:32 |
| MikeRL | I think there was a way to do this before, but I forgot. | 14:32 |
| MikeRL | I'm thinking GNOME needs better keyboard controls. As in popping up only when the touchscreen is touched in a text area. Like Win10 handles it. Ubuntu sadly has issues due to GNOME: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1723857 | 14:40 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1723857 in gnome-shell (Arch Linux) "onscreen keyboard appears whenever i touch touchscreen" [Undecided,New] | 14:40 |
| MikeRL | Issues going the other direction as well. | 14:41 |
| MikeRL | Have to go. IRC is logged, so hoping someone more knowledgeable than me will consider it. | 14:44 |
| lotuspsychje | TJ-: if you like there's a 20.04 test team at #ubuntu-quality devs & testers meet | 17:58 |
| TJ- | lotuspsychje: is that for my xubuntu installer issue? | 17:59 |
| lotuspsychje | TJ-: just for the info, all flavours are getting discussed there | 18:00 |

| TJ- | yet again sub-standard Canonical output, despite suggestions and bug reports! the grub-efi-amd64-signed package with the prebuilt GRUB core image (grubx64.efi) is missing the usbhid modules... so impossible to use a Yubikey with it to unlock LUKS! | 21:50 |
| KjetilK | I just installed the kubuntu 20.04 beta on my brand new Dell XPS 13 9300 (the one with the i7-1065G7 CPU), and after fiddling a bit with BIOS settings, it seemed pretty straightforward, great work, folks! | 22:05 |
| KjetilK | Just wondering, for turning on encrypted /home, is https://www.howtogeek.com/116032/how-to-encrypt-your-home-folder-after-installing-ubuntu/ still the canonical [sic! :-) ] way to do it? | 22:06 |
| TJ- | KjetilK: if that is using ecryptfs then no, that has bit-rot and is deprecated | 22:13 |
| TJ- | KjetilK: for full-disk encryption I wrote this. I've not documented a per-home encryption using the kernel's 'new' generic file-system encryption since it's not recommended as yet - but ext4 support is pretty mture | 22:22 |
| KjetilK | TJ-: yeah, it uses ecryptfs, and I had that hunch, yes | 22:22 |
| KjetilK | for full-disk encryption, do I need to reinstall? | 22:23 |
| KjetilK | the PC came with windows preinstalled, and even though I haven't used Windows since win95, I figured it doesn't take too much disk space now, so I might as well keep it there, so I did a manual partitioning, and forgot about disk encryption, but I need to do it some way or the other | 22:25 |
| TJ- | KjetilK: it is possible to shuffle things around without a reinstall but a clean install is better unless you're a wizard :) | 22:27 |
| KjetilK | right | 22:27 |
| KjetilK | my wizard status is indeed in question :-) | 22:27 |
| TJ- | update-manager keeps on crashing on a fresh install. hmmm! | 22:28 |
| KjetilK | OK, thanks, TJ-, I'll make a clean install after a couple of days at the coast :-) | 22:30 |
| TJ- | hmmm, forgot to give you the link! | 22:30 |
| TJ- | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Full_Disk_Encryption_Howto_2019 | 22:30 |
| KjetilK | ah, great | 22:31 |
| AlexMax | I have a second drive that I want to install Ubuntu LTS on. Is Ubuntu LTS in a state where I could install it and have it work right now, even if there are some rough edges? | 22:32 |
| AlexMax | The reason I want to do it now and not when it's finally "released" is that I'm running out of space on my Fedora partition. | 22:32 |
| TJ- | AlexMax: sure; I've been operating some servers for a few months now. We're past feature freeze and beta freeze so only important bugs will be fixed before erlease day | 22:41 |
| AlexMax | I intend to use it as a desktop | 22:41 |
| TJ- | AlexMax: that'll be fine too | 22:42 |
| AlexMax | Okay, I was a bit worried that perhaps the installation might not be quite as smooth in a beta build | 22:57 |
| TJ- | AlexMax: well it took me 5 hours tonight... but that is because I have a very custom FDE install method and kept forgetting what I was doing :D | 23:02 |
