 Hiii
 Anyone tell me how much ram lubuntu uses on startup without any apps open
[03:42] <baltazar> Hello!
[03:43] <baltazar> does anyone has experience with drawing tablets and multiple monitors?
[03:46] <baltazar> Am trying to figure out how how I can keep the drawing tablet focused on the drawing application or screen where it is in, any ideas?
[03:47] <valorie> baltazar: the experts probably live in #krita
[03:47] <baltazar> ... and for some reason they mention windows a lot and have no concrete solution to this issue...
[03:48] <baltazar> it is more of an OS issue than an application issue since it happens because of how the display handles imput devices
[03:50] <baltazar> the tablet is treated as a mouse and ends up accessing all monitors with no way of forcing or setting it to keep in a monitor or application....
[03:50] <baltazar> But I will check the IRC... hopefully it is better than the forum
[03:54] <baltazar> ... am not able to get into the krita IRC
[06:29] <lordievader> Good morning

[12:21] <BluesKaj> 'Morning folks
[13:34] <R13ose> why does sometimes when waking up my laptop the internet doesn't connect and then when I close my laptop, and reopen this after a few mins, the internet connects?
[13:36] <floown> Hello. I am currently on KDE neon, and I encounter a bug with Korganiser. Indeed, adding a date in a calendar does not sync with Nextcloud, so my Android is not synchronized too. Does this bug also exist under Kubuntu? I would like an OS that works... I'm a simple user.
[14:30] <floown> 'bug' solved
[14:41] <oerheks> powerbutton /clear
[15:13] <R13ose> Any ideas on my issue?

 What is kubuntu focus? … It is a distro or a laptop
 What is kubuntu focus? … is it a distro or a laptop
[17:41] <mparillo> It is a laptop with a stack optimized for it as will as for a certain use case. https://kfocus.org/
[17:42] <mparillo> The stack starts with kubuntu, with config changes plus some software pre-installed
[20:21] <dweeber> Is anyone available to help me with an issue?
[20:21] <dweeber> I installed VLC in kubuntu and now all my url links are being opened in VLC instead of firefox.
[20:25] <nthomas20> @dweeber -- are you using plasma desktop? If so, open up "Default Applications" from the menu and check your Web Browser settings
[20:38] <dweeber> Yes, I am using plasma.
[20:41] <dweeber> Okay, I checked the Web Browser setting and changed it to Mozilla Firefox, always.
[20:41] <dweeber> Still VLC is opening links.
[20:41] <nthomas20> interesting. are you on 20.04?
[20:42] <nthomas20> from where are you trying to open the urls?
[20:45] <nthomas20> and also, can you show an example url that's opening in VLC?
[20:53] <dweeber> Yes, I'm using 20.04.
[20:53] <dweeber> I have tried right clicking on the desktop and creating a shortcut to a url.
[20:53] <dweeber> the url is for http://localhost:8080
[20:54] <nthomas20> What are the contents of that file that's created?
[20:56] <dweeber> I created one for http://google.com with the same results.
[20:56] <dweeber> Here are the contents, line by line:
[20:56] <dweeber> [Desktop Entry]
[20:56] <dweeber> Icon=user-desktop
[20:56] <dweeber> Type=Link
[20:56] <dweeber> URL[$e]=http://google.com
[20:56]  * dweeber that's it
[20:57] <nthomas20> okay, that's all correct. and to clarify did you install VLC through the standard apt repo (Discover app) or did you install the vlc snap?
[21:02] <nthomas20> dweeber -- before vlc attempts to open the URL, does firefox open it first and then redirect?
[21:03] <nthomas20> Open about:preferences#general in Firefox and scroll down to Applications and check to make sure that VLC isn't listed there
[21:08] <dweeber> I installed via Discover app
[21:08] <dweeber> firefox is never contacted. VLC is opened directly
[21:09] <nthomas20> This if baffling!!!11
[21:09] <dweeber> VLC is not listed in Firefox applications
[21:10] <dweeber> Yes, I am also quite confused.
[21:10] <dweeber> Thank you for your help!
[21:10] <nthomas20> have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling? IT Crowd would first have us unplug and plug it back in.
[21:10] <dweeber> Searching on the Internet has not yielded many relevant results.
[21:10] <dweeber> I am attempting removal from Discover App, then reinstall via apt.
[21:11] <nthomas20> yah. i'm on 20.04 in your exact described scenario and "it works fine on my machine"
[21:11] <dweeber> Another issue: Chrome is installed
[21:12] <dweeber> After vlc is uninstalled, the file opens in chrome
[21:12] <nthomas20> I don't have chrome actual, but I have chromium
[21:14] <dweeber> I just changed the default browser from chrome to firefox
[21:14] <dweeber> now the link is opening in calibre
[21:14] <nthomas20> i wonder if chrome has a secret handler association to push the url to vlc
[21:15] <dweeber> Where are these settings handled?
[21:15] <nthomas20> is that an ebook reader??!!??
[21:15] <dweeber> yes. I have no idea how this is happening.
[21:15] <nthomas20> chrome hides that i think. i think that they will require you to DELETE EVERYTHING in essence to restart the protocol handling requests. I very much dislike chrom(e)(ium) for these reasons.
[21:16] <nthomas20> i haven't found in chromium a listing of protocol handlers like firefox has for applications.
[21:17] <nthomas20> open chrome settings and search for "protocol" or "handlers" and you'll see how limited it is comparatively
[21:17] <nthomas20> you might have to "clear browsing data" and select "site settings" to remove them all completely
[21:24] <dweeber> I ran through `update-alternatives --all`, then removed chrome, then vlc, and now the url links open in firefox.
[21:24] <dweeber> I am going to try reinstalling vlc now.
[21:24] <nthomas20> YAH!!!!!! Awesome
[21:24] <dweeber> Thank you!!
[21:24] <dweeber> YOU ARE AMAZING
[21:24] <dweeber> where's the tip bot?
[21:25] <nthomas20> lolol, no worries. I'm so glad it's all worked out for ya'!
[21:26] <dweeber> I am glad you are here. Thank you for responding and being willing to help.
[21:26] <dweeber> I reinstalled VLC and the issue occurs again.
[21:26] <dweeber> I may have to forego VLC.
[21:27] <nthomas20> vlc is the best though. What version is installed?
[21:28] <nthomas20> if vlc installation re-causes the issue, your specific problem is likely with vlc. which further baffles
[21:28] <dweeber> VLC 3.0.9.2
[21:28] <nthomas20> i'm on 3.0.9.2-1
[21:28] <oerheks> i like mpv better.
[21:28] <oerheks> also as snap available
[21:28] <nthomas20> Unless there's some stagnant configuration somewhere from the original issue that's still pointing to vlc
[21:29] <nthomas20> well, for you, if mpv is your preference and doesn't cause this issue then i say run with it
[21:29] <dweeber> I have not tried mpv
[21:30] <dweeber> I would like to get vlc working properly.
[21:31] <nthomas20> try uninstalling vlc
[21:31] <nthomas20> and then making sure that ~/.config/vlc directory is removed
[21:31] <nthomas20> and also ~/.local/share/vlc
[21:33] <dweeber> Drats! That did not work.
[21:35] <nthomas20> Sadly, I feel that I'm at my limit now with hunger and not hands-on your actual machine
[21:36] <nthomas20> This is frustrating!
[21:36] <dweeber> I have teamviewer (:
