Steampunk_SamHello, Im very new to Linux in general, was wondering if there are any simple gui based backup utilities available that are able to copy files in use? Have been running Cobain backup on windows for years, backs up directories incrementally with directory & file type based exclusions to FTP removing older backups as it does so, Open to all01:01

Steampunk_SamRunning Kubuntu 20.04.1 at present01:03
fructoseSteampunk_Sam: If you search for "incremental backup" software for Linux, there are a few options. I don't use them enough to make a useful recommendation though.01:46

user|51200I installed Linux Mint 19 and Kubuntu 20 in two times.11:21
user|51200With both of the operating systems the HDMI plug does not outputs signal11:22
user|51200I'd checked the cable and the screen monitor separatelly11:22
user|51200I'm tying to solve this problem via driver installaction, but the driver website recommended by intel (which is 01.org) seems not to host the drivers page linked from Intel website11:23
diogenes_user|51200, run: cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep intel11:23
user|51200¿Does anyone has experienced the same issues, and solved them?11:23
diogenes_do you get any output?11:23
user|51200No, does not produces any output11:23
diogenes_user|51200, ok now let's see your xorg log entirely: cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | nc termbin.com 999911:24
diogenes_share the url.11:24
user|51200I can pastbin the output without the grep11:24

diogenes_share the url.11:29
user|51200https://termbin.com/rrb711:30
user|51200( Intel is a bad "term", cause produces a lot of matches with longer terms )11:31
user|51200¿Why don't try with "Intel®" separatelly?11:31
diogenes_user|51200, ok now: sudo apt install xserver-xorg-video-intel11:32

IrcsomeBot<reversestark26> hello anyone help plz i did a kernel update  … 5.4 to 5.8 now my wifi card not detecting in new kernel16:18
IrcsomeBot<reversestark26> rtl8821ce16:18
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> New kernels are notorious for breaking wifi.  Not sure where/how to report a kernel bug.16:20
IrcsomeBot<reversestark26> (Photo, 1280x719) https://irc-attachments.kde.org/0L6LWFZS/file_34445.jpg after that if i  try to install anything this is showing  , and i again booted with 5.4 kernel and wifi card detecting  . how can i remove 5.8 kernel?16:25
IrcsomeBot<Franzpow> can I delete the folder /log/journal? it is starting to be really heavy 4gb+16:40
viewer|66For several days Kubuntu forums seems to be "down"? any ideas what is occurring?17:42
user|3271Any advantage in fresh install of Kubuntu VS starting with Ubuntu and later changing desktop?17:51
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Sometimes hunting down conflicts with overlapping packages (such as network managers) can be challenging as multiple apps will be fighting for the same resources.   I have not attempted for a few years, but that was my experience a few years back.17:53
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> A vm would help determine most of the issues except something like wifi connections since the network is virtualized.17:55

Roeyhihi21:00
Roeygot a question on mounting a USB drive:  it gives no visible error when I mount the external drive with "mount", but I don't see evidence that it actually did it.21:01
valorieRoey: you mean that the device manager doesn't see it?22:15
valoriedoes it show up in dolphin?22:15
valoriedoes `mount` list it?22:16
valorieetc.22:16
gnoobalso probably a good idea to post the exact command being issues.22:20
gnoobissued22:20
Roeyvalorie: I mean on the command line, using the mount command to display mounted drives, I do not see it listed.22:22
valoriehmmm, weird22:22
valorieyou you can't umount it22:23
Roeyi looked for errors with dmesg or /etc/syslog22:23
Roeydon't think I found any22:23
valorieI had that happen with a thumb key I had22:23
valorietested it on a couple of other machines and found out it had died22:24
RoeyI do sudo mount /var/sdc /backup, and yet /backup is not mounted22:24
valoriethe other issue can be a damaged or dirty USB on your machine22:25
Roeyhmm.  ok.22:25
valoriethey don't last forever, I've found22:25
valoriesame with USB cables22:25
Roeyvalorie: well I just tried it with 2 usb cable22:26
Roeycables22:26
Roeygot the same behavior.22:26
oerhekssure it is sdc, not sdc1 ?22:28
valorieso try on a different machine?22:28
gnoobwon't that happens sometimes if you try to mount it somewhere like the temp folder?22:29
gnoobit won't really mount.22:29
oerheksmanual mounts in /mnt/, auto in /media/22:30
Roeyvalorie: yeah22:48
Roeyvalorie: see when I reboot it goes away22:48
Roeyfor a bit22:48
Roeythen it comes back22:48
valorieoh weirdness22:48
valoriedoes logging in and out do the same thing?22:49
valorieshort term cure?22:49
valoriestill unclear whether it's a software issue or failing hardware though22:49
valorieand I dunno how to pin that down22:50
Roeyvalorie: I don' know22:51
RoeyI tried cfdisk but it was wonky on me, asking me to select for that disk a disk type22:51
Roeyso I did smartctl22:51
Roeyit's running a test now on it.22:52
Roeymaybe I'll turn it of fand turn it on again22:52
