[00:08] <digitalw00t> When I connect to a vpn, my local dns settings are being ignored.  It's only hitting the dns on the other side of the vpn tunnel, and I really want it to hit my dns first locally as well as the remote dns if the local one doesn't have an entry on file for the lookup.
[00:11] <digitalw00t> Anyone familiar with the vpn client in kubuntu?
[00:20] <Unit193> That most likely happens so you don't leak your IP via DNS.
[00:22] <digitalw00t> Unit193: I added my local dns to the list of dns to add, but it doesn't seem to even query it.

[02:03] <carol> in a newbie
[02:05] <carol> little frendly help is good?
 @carol, Here's some help.  As a new user of Linux, you're probably wondering what software to use for various tasks, as Linux only has some of the more common software.  Firefox or Chrome might be obvious for web browsing, etc, but no Photoshop for example, so what to use to edit images?  This site will help: https://alternativeto.net/  Type in the name of a software you know and get back a list of viable alternatives for various
 Help #2: Get comfortable with the Linux package manager/Software center.  Software on Linux is generally installed from a central repository, rather than wandering the web aimlessly seeking random (potentially risky) installers.
 Help #3: If you're into gaming, you prolly wanna install Steam, Lutris, Itch.io, and PlayOnLinux early on.  Those should open up a mess of gaming possibilities beyond the native games you find readily available in the software center.
 @blooalien, Yes!
 Itch.io is a awesome place
 @darltrash, Indeed.  I've found tons of great little gems there.  :)
 Fun fact: If you sell your game in itch, it is very posible your first buyer is the creator of the page himself
 No joke, he relates to a personal level every game in his platform
 @darltrash, Nice.  I'ma big fan of Itch longtime now.
 The guy who made it is a genius, he is veeery funny
 He made his own coding language and his own website framework, everything open source
 And unlike GOG, Itch has a native Linux desktop client.
 @blooalien, Yes, a electron one, is pretty good even being electron
 @darltrash, Actually, one of the better Electron apps I've used.  I normally hate Electron apps, but Itch is really well put together overall.
 @blooalien, Yes
 Is remarkably good
 Like vscode, is also incredible
 @darltrash, Not normally a fan of Microsoft products that much either, but ya, vscode was actually a totally tolerable coding editor.  (I've since gone back to just plain ol' Kate, but that's just me.)
 hi guys. new to linux here. i want to dual boot w10 and kubuntu. do i have to disable bitlocker to do this?
 bc last night I tried installing vanilla ubuntu with secure boot and bitlocker on and it was asking me for my recovery key every time I booted into windows
 obviously this is a hassle so I was wondering if I have to completely disable bitlocker to avoid it from bugging me with a recovery key every time I boot into windows or is there some other way for me to do it without turning off bitlocker? thanks in advance
[04:15] <valorie> well, this is #kubuntu
[04:15] <valorie> we don't use bitlocker afaik
[04:15] <valorie> at least I have never heard of it
[04:15] <valorie> maybe ask in #ubuntu ?
 I asked here because I'm going to switch from ubuntu to kubuntu
 Fwd from dryllmedaddy: hi guys. new to linux here. i want to dual boot w10 and kubuntu. do i have to disable bitlocker to do this?
 i just want to know
 do i turn off either sb or bitlocker before installation?
 @valorie, I think it's a Windows disk encryption thing.
 @blooalien, Vscode is incredible, is truly a power move from microsoft, the only microsoft product i use and love.
 @darltrash, I'ma Python guy, so truth be told, I don't need much more'n a good syntax highlighting editor and Python itself.  ;)
 (Occasional HTML/CSS/Javascript here and there, too, but again, Kate generally does the job just fine.)  😜
 I use vscode for everything
 Lua, python, js, html, css, everything
 Except godot, godot's editor is good enough
 @darltrash, I honestly might, if I wasn't already so pleased with Kate's performance of it's duties for my needs.  :)
 @blooalien, True
 I do prefer vscode over all the other similar things I've tried in the past tho.  Seems a lot more lightweight and responsive compared against similar code editors I've tried before.
 I do also like how customizable/extensible vscode is.  Can't ever go too far wrong givin' the end-user the ability to adapt their tools to their workflow and needs...  ;)
 @blooalien, True
 That's why i love it
 @darltrash, I could see that.  Always been a fan of customizable software.  It's one of the main things that keeps me on Linux/KDE.  :)
 @blooalien, Me too! I love linux because it can be SO MODDABLE
 It can be pure minimalism or absolute hacking-movies inspired
 I totally love that I've been able to totally customize every little detail of my desktop/system to best support MY personal workflow pretty much exactly as I need it to.  :)
 Always had to fight my Windows installations to get anywhere even remotely close to anything custom.
 Yes
 @dryllmedaddy, If you want to access the files inside the bitlocker partition from linux, you would have to disable it. Disabling secure boot might be needed to boot kubuntu
[09:16] <m_tadeu> hi...I'm getting these messages in syslog https://pastebin.com/LL4GPfj3 ...any idea how to fix this?
 @blooalien, Yup
 Gnome restricts you and creates a limit what you can and you can't.... But in kde do what ever you want.. even change window manager.... Where you can't run Gnome without mutter ..
 What is good dock for kde ?? Plank or late dock anyone tried?
 Hi guys! Can anyone recommend a pdf editor that allows for text fields and check boxes? I need to fill out a form and okulus is not up to the task.
 @Terminator_99, I recommend latte dock!
 If you are on Kubuntu 19:04 or newer.
[09:56] <Mrokii> @Terminator_99: I've been using Latte Dock for ages and I think it's great. I'd recommend it wholeheartedly.
 @Linuxophil, Okay thanks.. I'm on 20.04 beta
 @Mrokii, Mrokii :Thanks 😊
 @Linuxophil, Will you prefer Online website based editor ?
[09:58] <Mrokii> Linuxphil: Okular lets you enter text in input fields, and also use checkboxes.
 @Terminator_99, No. Local please.
 @Linuxophil, Libreoffice draw  … Okular … Qoppa PDF Studio
 Inkscape
 @Terminator_99, Thanks a lot! I tried the first two, will try the second two now.
 @Linuxophil, Okay .. personally I haven't tried editing pdf with any of those ... I found this recommendation on https://alternativeto.net/ and other Foss website.. so try if it's useful
[10:15] <Mrokii> @Terminator_99: yw. :-)
[10:34] <BluesKaj> Howdy all
 How to mount a disk automatically on every boot in Kubuntu?
 In Gnome I used gnome-disk-utility that doesn't work in kde
[11:09] <BluesKaj> @Terminator_99, does dolphin see the disk in devices?
[11:12] <BluesKaj> if not, do sudo blkid and copy the UUID entry to /etc/fstab
 @BluesKaj, BluesKaj : yes it does show up in the Dolphin .. I want that to auto mounted
[11:30] <BluesKaj> have you ever edited /etc/fstab ?
 @BluesKaj, Nope
[11:33] <BluesKaj> putting an entry in /etc/fstab is the simplest method to assure disk mounting at boot, like I mentioned above about the UUID
[11:52] <BluesKaj> @Terminator_99, this tutorial will explain and help https://askubuntu.com/questions/303497/adding-an-entry-to-fstab
 @BluesKaj, Done .. ✌️ thanks
[11:59] <BluesKaj> 'welcome
[16:31] <m_tadeu> hi...I'm unable to connecto to my bluetooth headset. it's supported, right?
[16:50] <digitalw00t> I've had kubuntu completely lock up twice now, and I'm not sure what's causing it.  The entire desktop freezes, but I can ping the host.
[16:51] <digitalw00t> I can't ssh though, it establishes a connection, but won't go past connection established.
[16:52] <digitalw00t> Where can I get support for kubuntu?  Is there anything I need to do gather debugging information to help with this?
 @digitalw00t, Which version of Kubuntu?
[17:15] <digitalw00t> Kubuntu 19.10
[17:15] <digitalw00t> Installed maybe a week or two ago.
[17:15] <digitalw00t> So far.. loving it.
 I don't recall any lockup issues with 19.10, but you could try the backports PPA. Or just wait until Thurday and upgrade to 20.04.
[17:34] <digitalw00t> What are the backport PPA for?
[17:34] <digitalw00t> I think it might have something to do with VMware workstation, but I haven't been able to be definately sure that's the issue yet.  I mean.. I've only been running it for a week or two.
[17:35] <digitalw00t> But everytime it's frozen I've been doing things in a VM.
[17:56] <sebastien76> bonsoir
[17:57] <sebastien76> des petit conseil pour débuter sereinement sur unbuntu ?
[19:12] <Guest83801> Good evening! I've got a problem with my new Kubuntu 20.04 beta installation on my Thinkpad L380. Whenever I restart my system with the USB-C power cable attached, the machine "starts" aka the buttons light up and the fan spins, but the system doesn't proceed with the booting process and the display remains disabled. As soon as I remove the power cable, the machine activates the display and the system boots up
[19:12] <Guest83801> normally. Any idea what could be wrong? I never had this phenomenom with my previous Win10 installation.
[19:16] <user|27104> Hi everyone
[19:17] <digitalw00t> Anyone know how I can get my Elgato HD60 and capture software to work under Kubuntu 19.10?
[19:18] <user|27104> I'm able to boot from Kubuntu ISO in uefi mode. It keep giving me following error
[19:18] <user|27104> Failed to set MokListRT: Out of Resources
[19:20] <user|27104> KDE NEON iso image works in uefi mode but not kubuntu - any suggestions please
