derek-shnoshFresh 20.04 Kubuntu install, I can't find the "animation speed" under compositor to speed up the desktop animations... I swear I've seen it there on previous installs, but its not showing.03:07
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> System settings -> workplace behavior -> General Behavior03:08
derek-shnoshHey there Darin, again. ;)03:09
derek-shnoshThanks buddy... did it used to be in compositor settings?03:09
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> hi 😊03:09
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Not that I remember.03:09
derek-shnoshAlright, I think search result that was older directed me there... either way, that did the trick. Thanks again.03:10
derek-shnoshjust installed it alongside windows on my gaming computer... its nice at 95hz on this ultrawide03:10
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> very good.  My 2K runs very well at 144hz.  It has an overclock mode at 165Hz, but the overdirve makes everything "blurry" and hard to read.03:14
derek-shnoshDarinMiller any ideas for adjusting scaling on these larger resolutions? Seems like its potentially adjusting for high DPI but global scale in display settings is 100%03:22
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Xorg or wayland?03:23
derek-shnoshdefault.03:23
derek-shnoshxorg i guess cause i didn't explicitly select or enable wayland.03:24
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> On xorg, I set my fonts to force dpi of 144 (I have a 27" 4k and I upscale my 2k to 4k to keep all my applications sizes consistent).03:25
derek-shnoshif my goal is to prevent things from being huge, or larger than expected... i'd want the font dpi *higher*?03:25
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> On my 4k laptop, I use a mix of force font dpi and global scale under wayland to achieve desired font and scaling appearance.03:26
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Yes, set global scale to 100%, then adjust font scale to achieve desired affect.  Each time after applying font size, run "plasmashell —replace &" to deterimine full effect.  (Also, re-open any open window).03:29
derek-shnoshahh, alright cause i was changing font dpi and wasn't noticing any differences03:29
derek-shnoshahhh 96 dpi did the trick...03:29
derek-shnoshbrb03:30
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Somethings may require a full logout/login.  But the plasmashell —replace will get most of it.03:30

thingkcpI am trying to install Kubuntu 20.04 from a USB. I can boot from the USB but the partition manager cannot see the internal hard drive.17:26
thingkcpCan anyone help?17:28
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Is the drive visible in the BIOS?17:29
thingkcpI'm not sure how to check that17:29
thingkcpI'm trying to dual boot with Windows. Windows boots ok and I have shrunk the Windows volume to leave space for Kubuntu17:30
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> If the computer can boot to another OS already on the hard drive, then the drive is visible.  But if this is a brand new system, you need to ensure the BIOS can see the hard drive.17:30
thingkcpIt can see it ok when it boots into Windows17:31
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Ensure to shut down win10 completely before live booting....  just a sec... finding a link...17:31
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> https://www.top-password.com/blog/fully-shutdown-windows-10-instead-of-hibernating-it/#:~:text=If%20you%20would%20like%20to,on%20the%20sign%2Din%20screen.&text=This%20will%20immediately%20close%20any,completely%20shut%20down%20your%20PC.17:32
thingkcpOh, so Windows 10 does not really shut down? That would explain the fast startup. I'll try that. Many thanks.17:33

IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> @thingkcp, Are you able to see your HD in live boot now?18:04
thingkcpI am trying to dual-boot Kubuntu 20.04 with Windows 10. Windows boots ok and the live USB boots but the live Kubuntu session cannot see the internal hard drive18:23
thingkcpI have tried disabling Windows 10 Fast Startup but it makes no difference18:23
thingkcpCan anyone help?18:23
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> The only other thing I can think of is in the BIOS, you may need to change the controller type to AHCI: https://hetmanrecovery.com/recovery_news/how-to-enable-ahci-mode-for-sata-in-the-bios-without-reinstalling-windows.htm18:28
thingkcpHi again Darin. Would that affect the boot into Windows?18:29
thingkcpDoes it make any difference that the drive is SSD?18:29
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> It may.  Read through article to understand how to manage.  For a test, you can toggle the BIOS to see if that solves the issue, if it does, then follow the steps in the article.18:30
thingkcpOK, I'll take a look now.18:31
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> I have assisted with a setup where the user would just go into the BIOS each time they wanted to boot to each OS and toggle the BIOS.  That seems like to much hassle to me.18:31
thingkcpThe BIOS was set to RAID mode. I have changed it to AHCI18:32
thingkcpNope. Says 'inaccessible boot device' That's without the USB in.18:33
thingkcpOK well at least I have got WIndows back now.18:36
thingkcpIt looks as though the disk can only work in RAID mode18:39
thingkcpThanks for the help anyway.18:46
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> The bottom of the above article covers how fix window to switch boot methods (although I have never attempted myself).18:47
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Personally, I just re-install windows, but I know that not a reasonable option for many people.18:47
