SheshHi, How can I change the Inkscape icons to factory default  in 20.0403:25
Shesh I tried to use an icon theme, it doesn't work as well03:31
Sheshsorry, I meant it was not read at all03:31
valorieShesh: they might know in #kde03:32
IrcsomeBotRae Eastep was added by: Rae Eastep03:33
Sheshthanks +valorie03:33
valoriebut inkscape isn't KDE software so I have no clue where that infor is stored03:33
SheshI see, I asked there as well03:33
SheshI installed it from Discover03:33
valoriekeep in mind all the kde chans are most active in euro-working hours03:33
valoriesure, you can install anything from the archive from discover03:34
SheshI got used to the default icons. Finding it hard to understand the new ones03:34
valorieand if you allow snap/appimage/flatpak, those too03:34
Sheshsorry, I didn't follow the last line03:35
valoriethose are alternative packaging systems03:36
valorie!snaps03:36
ubottuSnaps are containerised software packages similar to flatpaks or appimage. For more info, see https://snapcraft.io03:36
Sheshwhat does Discover offer by default ?03:36
valorieeverything in the archive03:36
Shesh+ubottu thanks.03:36
valorieand everything in backports, etc. if you have those enabled03:37
SheshI meant to ask, flatpak /app image / snap +valorie03:37
valorie?03:37
Sheshsomeone told me that Discover offers Flatpak03:37
valorieit can, yes03:37
valorieyou have to allow it03:37
valorieprobably in settings03:37
Sheshbecause I installed Inkscape through Discover03:38
valorieI've never installed a flatpak03:38
Sheshmay I ask where in " Settings " ? +valorie03:38
valorieI don't know03:38
valorieI never allowe them03:38
Sheshneither do I. No03:38
valorieI just know you can03:38
SheshNo Flatpak yet03:38
Sheshok03:38
SheshCan I rephrase my question. If I install from Discover, by default, which packaging will it use for Inkscape03:39
Sheshplease don't feel bad03:39
SheshI am trying to understand03:39
valorie!inkscape03:39
ubottuInkscape is a powerful vector graphics drawing application - see http://www.inkscape.org/ for more03:39
valoriepfff03:39
valorie!info inkscape03:39
ubottuinkscape (source: inkscape): vector-based drawing program. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.92.5-1ubuntu1 (focal), package size 14532 kB, installed size 78934 kB03:39
Shesh+ubottu, I will check store to see.03:40
valoriein my discover, I see the option to enable flatpak03:40
valorieright in settings03:40
valorienear the top03:40
Sheshok03:40
valoriebut no appimage03:41
Sheshright03:41
valorieI think the issue there that is no single trusted source of appimages03:41
valorieyet03:41

Shesh+valorie what will be the Euro Timezone03:42
Sheshin GMT03:42

SheshHow to use " Activities " like tiling ?04:09
SheshIt happens automatically to me04:10
valorietiling?04:10
valorieit's not really an analogue04:11
Sheshsomething that happens when we click on " Activities " in Gnome04:11
valorieactivities are a way to group applications, browser tabs etc. to a particular activity04:11
valorielike Work, Gaming, Vacation Planning04:11
valorieetc.04:12

Shesha minute before, my 2 windows shrunk, just like in Gnome upper right hand corner04:12
Shesh:)04:13

valoriethat's the "hot corner"04:13
SheshI see04:13
valorieI turn that off too04:13
valoriedon't like it04:13

valoriebut some love it04:13
Sheshhow to use hot corner ? just to know about it04:13

jhdoreGood morning - I've been following the instructions for upgrading to 20.04 in the article you've linked to, but the apt-get dist-upgrade command tells me there is nothing to do. Is this correct (it's not released yet) or something up with my machine?11:35
BluesKajjhdore, use the newer command, do-release-upgrade -d, (you still need the -d flag til the point release in july)11:38
RikMillsjhdore: apt-get dist-upgrade upgrades packages on your current release (e.g. bugfixes). It does not upgrade you TO a new release.11:38

BluesKajgls, have you run updates /upgrades since installation?13:53
glsBluesKaj: yes, everything is up to date :(13:53
glsI reinstalled kubuntu-desktop sddm plasma-desktop (I think)13:54
glsbut I don't really know what's missing, the bottom bar and system settings work fine if I click. There is just a problem with the color13:55
BluesKajwhich gpu?13:55
gls00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation UHD Graphics 630 (Mobile) (rev 02)13:59
glsit is a dell laptop for my work, I don't think I have another GPU13:59
glsxserver-xorg-video-intel is already the newest version (2:2.99.917+git20200226-1). but I guess that if I had a problem with my xorg drivers, I couldn't even reach SDDM/desktop14:00
BluesKajgls, my laptop is a dell with the same gpu using the i915 driver... did you update/ upgrade your existing packages before upgrading to 20.04?14:02
glsyes, it was clean. I did update+upgrade then reboot, then do-release-upgrade then update & upgrade14:04
munihi team14:05
munii'm not able to click or operate kubuntu with laptop touch pad14:05
BluesKajgls,  the proper command for upgrade to 20.04 is to use -d flag as well, sudo do-release-upgrade -d14:06
munican you tell me the solution14:06
munitouch pad is not working14:07

masonbee-M1OK, that is weird. On 20.04 chromium-browser is now a transitional package that installs the snap. There is no package for a non snap version.14:58
jukebohiI'm going to install clean 20.04 (once I get some SSDs, USB sticks and such). I'm now on 18.04.4. If I move the Plasma Vault as is, will it open? Or should I just fetch the files to unencrypted for a little while and then create a Plasma Vault?14:58
masonbee-M1Also, is there some way to blacklist snapd from installing?15:00

IrcsomeBot<Parvez> Maybe something error on flashing iso15:49
IrcsomeBot<RikMills> It's check the integrity of the files written to the usb15:50
IrcsomeBot<Parvez> Try rufus or etcher15:50
IrcsomeBot<RikMills> So either your download was correct, there was an error writing to the usb, or your usb is faulty15:50
IrcsomeBot<mello009> Yeah I think so15:51

The install has been running for a couple of days now, updates, installs, etc...all good. Wrote the image with the startup usb maker (kde version). The image was fine if I checked it in a virtual machine. So maybe check the image16:07
masonbee-M1that way and then try writing to a different usb with dd or something. Or give it a go.16:07

geniisharmarran: So, numlock on after user logs in, or numlock when login screen comes up?22:04
geniisharmarran: To set it for your user: System Settings -> Input Devices -> Keyboard   ..then on the right of the screen, a section called NumLock on Plasma Startup    with 3 choices: Turn on  - Turn off - Leave unchanged. Choosing "Turn on" here, and hitting "Apply" button in bottom right of the window should change it22:10
sharmarrangenii I have been told this before, and there is no such option on my keyboard settings.22:16
sharmarranI have tried everything recommended and so far, none of them work. Can someone please tell me how to permanently enable boot numbers lock on focal fossa?  Please if someone can answer this question directly, I would much apit. cheers22:18
sharmarranI have tried everything recommended and so far, none of them work. Can someone please tell me how to permanently enable boot numbers lock on focal fossa? If someone can answer this question, I would very much appreciate it. cheers22:18
geniisharmarran: PLease stop spamming, or I will be forced to remove yuo from the channel, thanks.22:19
sharmarrangenii I am 66 years old and require a bit more respect. thank you! And I have no idea what you mean by spamming. Also, I would appreciate it, if someone else could answer this question for me. cheers22:21
geniisharmarran: Spamming is repeating the same content over and and over close togther in time. And I am not a young man either.22:22
IrcsomeBot<da_ni_el> @sharmarran, for login screen, create the file /etc/sddm.conf   if not exist and add: … [General] … Numlock=on22:24
sharmarrangenii I am a woman, not a man. Please stop talking to me. thank you. I am new to unbuntu, and i do not appreciate being threatened. If this is how you treat people looking for help, then I will look elsewhere. However, I will lodge a complaint if you continue to be rude to me.22:25
sharmarrani do not care who you are, you have no right to be rude to users22:26
geniiYou are welcome to lokk elsewere, but we are indeed tryy to assist. But some patientince on your part must also be had.22:26
geniiHah, I am the one trying to be polite22:27
sharmarranpatientince?22:27
douglenuff please22:27
geniiYou were given a solution to try, perhaps to to attapt it.22:27
sharmarranThreatening people is not being polite22:28
geniiattempt it, rather22:28
sharmarranwhat is patientince?22:28
housecatpatience, presumably22:28
sharmarranyou are being rude22:28
geniisharmarran: Patience. My spelling is not good lately22:28
elsharmarran: he's trying his best in his current situation. the instructions genii gave appear correct to me22:29
sharmarranis there anyone here who can answer my question? If not, then I will try back later22:29
sharmarranand I responded22:29
sharmarranand then was threatened22:30
elyes and given he can't see your keyboard, and neither can i, neither of us know what else to suggest to you22:30
sharmarranwhat is next?22:30
sharmarranthen you don't know the answer to my question. cheers. I will try again later22:31
douglsharmarran, what did not work? or did you find a stumbling block we dont know about?22:31
elrepeating yourself over and over doesn't make the answer change unfortunately, trying back later would be a better idea, and preferably come in hand with something to help the next people know what your keyboard is like22:31
sharmarranand again. what genii recommended is not an option on my system22:31
housecatsharmarran: can you describe what you do see in keyboard settings?22:32
housecatmight help us get on the same page :)22:32
sharmarrani will write to the developers again. maybe they can help me with this dilemma. I found this support section last night for the first time. I received decent help last night for another issue, and so i returned.22:34
elsharmarran: does it look like https://i.imgur.com/k6uWbRT.png ?22:34
elif not let us know everything that is missing22:34
sharmarranyes it does22:34
elso all the lines are the same?22:35
eli don't have kubuntu so i'm kinda limited in what i can help with :-/22:35
sharmarranel yes22:36
elok so you can see the three choices in the top box?22:37
sharmarranyes22:37
elis the "turn on" option the one that's enabled?22:37
sharmarranyes22:38
sharmarranel this is one of the first thing I have tried. It doesn't work22:39
elok, and is the button in the bottom right hand corner "apply"22:39
el?22:39
sharmarranoh come on!22:40
sharmarranreally22:40
douglwhat?22:40
elis it or not?22:40
sharmarranI am not an imbecile22:40
sharmarranof course I click on APPLY22:41
dougl<grin>22:41
elis it currently lit up or it is greyed out?22:41
sharmarrancome on!22:41
sharmarrancan you help me or not22:41
elwe're just double checking things, i can't see your screen so i'm making sure what you're looking at is what i think you're looking at22:41
elyou're helping me make sure we're on the same page, i'm the imbecile in this case22:42
sharmarranit fine. you probably do not know another way. I will check with the developers again.22:42
sharmarranI did say, that I had already tried this22:42
eli was going to help you do the sddm.conf edit that was suggested via the telegram bot22:43
sharmarranas well as trying to change it on the Konsole ...and in the BIOS. but nothing has worked so far22:43
sharmarranLOL22:43
douglits all fun...22:43
dougland whats not fun is educational22:43
elbut ok if you want to wait for someone else that's your choice, that's the thing you need to ask for help with next time: ~IrcsomeBot | <da_ni_el> @sharmarran, for login screen, create the file /etc/sddm.conf   if not exist and add: … [General] … Numlock=on22:44
elperhaps da_ni_el is still around to walk you through that22:44
sharmarranI told you I already tried the config route22:47
sharmarranEl i have already tried configuring it and adding the line ...greeter-setup-script=/usr/bin/numlockx on22:52
sharmarranand a number of other things as well. I realize you do not know the different things I have tried. But I will know when you tell me something that I have not tried22:52
sharmarrantake care and have a lovely day/ evening :)22:53
