HaniiWhen I'm installing kubuntu, can I specify which drive to install grub on so I can install it on the same drive I'm installing linux on? It's trying to install it on my windows partition and failing, I think because it's already there.00:12
IrcsomeBot<My1xT> You can choose your partitions custom, you just need to specify your mount points. I for example have a triple boot between w8.1 w10 and kubuntu on my laptop @ hanii00:54
HaniiDo I get the option to choose a mount point if I do "manual" on the screen that prompts me to choose/format a drive then?00:59
HaniiIncidentally, at the same time, is there an easy way to remove the grub install on my windows drive that installing before added?01:26

guivercHanii, grub is installed in the /boot/grub/ directory; the MBR is also installed to the selected drive, but the MBR cannot be uninstalled, it's replaced when you want something different (replaced by whatever you want to own the MBR, it's just a sector on the drive)02:20
HaniiThe kubuntu installer installed it on my windows disk instead of the disk I tried to install kubuntu on. Then when I tried to install later, installing grub failed.02:45
HaniiI currently have no drives with kubuntu installed, but still have a grub install on the windows drive02:47
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Are you trying to restore the windows boot loader to the windows drive?02:49

IrcsomeBot<reversestark26> How to install snap-store   … I thried in discover but it stuck in 14%14:12
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Sound like a Discover bug, so sou may need to use the command line.  If the command line works ensure to search for a corresponding Discover bug at bugs.kde.org.  If you cannot find a bug report, please create one.14:32
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> I now understand why my system freezes up and that's FF fault14:38
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> Firefox14:38
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> problem is that the issue is common14:38
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> please share14:38
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> but I don't know why it's happening. Internet did not give me good resources14:39
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> I am getting random system freeze while browsing14:39
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> with FF14:39
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> I was hoping you found a fix.14:39
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> I am asking on the firefox riot chat to see if they can help14:39
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> on the internet they say to disable hw acceleration but it's already disabled..14:40
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> I would like to find a fix too :P14:40
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> I was just not sure why the system was freezing up14:42
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> but at least now I am sure that is firefox14:42
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> I used FF for a few months and also saw random HW freezes, but it seemed to diminish over time.  But now I am using the "controversial" Brave browser.14:43
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> oh. Do you like it?14:43
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> I am also looking forward to change browser..14:44
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Yes, it automatically block all the crapware adds without installing any extensions.14:44
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> mmm I didn't like the controversy14:46
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> because the developer was a little shady.. right?14:46
oerheksfirefox blocks 3rd party cookies, seem many complain, disable ublock might help.14:54
