[00:22] <mparillo> That would require upgrading Qt, which would need testing across many Qt apps; more than just Kubuntu, so the best way would be to help test 20.10: http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/413/builds/220260/testcases

[04:15] <Guest_11> hi there!
[04:20] <Guest_11> would appreciate some help for the installation of Kubuntu 20.04.1 LTS on a Zotac ZBOX HD-ND22. Its got a nVidia NEON chipset. The live DVD hangs when i reach the desktop choive between live system and installation option. Ive tried the server image and managed to install the Nvidia-340 drivers manually. This works, But i dont want he server
[04:20] <Guest_11> installation: Its funky in some other way. So my question is: how can i make the desktop installer avoid the GUI alltogether and do a anattended scripted installation, so i can install the nvidia drivers afterwards in in a console?
[04:25] <Guest_11> correction its nVidia ION chipset
[04:30] <Guest_11> anyone home ?
 yes
[04:30] <Guest_11> hi
 hi
 how can I help?
[04:30] <Guest_11> can you hel me on what ive posted 5 mins ago ?
[04:30] <Guest_11> or souhld i repeat ?
 let me see...
 no need to repeat
 Hm...
 I have only ever done the GUI install.
 I have a zotac box nano c540.
 but that's all intel.
[04:32] <Guest_11> in the past there were a text mode installer.
 So you do not even get to the selection Try/install Kubuntu?
[04:32] <Guest_11> the guess the default noveu drivers just blow on the ION chipset
[04:33] <Guest_11> i get to the desktop. the mouse mouves, but no button clicks are accepted
[04:33] <Guest_11> so i cant select the install button
[04:34] <Guest_11> ive tried xubuntu. it hangs there too
[04:34] <Guest_11> but different place
[04:35] <Guest_11> the real problems is they dropped the text mode installation.
 @RikMills , can you help this guy?
[04:38] <Guest_11> The Zotac ZBOX HD-ND22 always was a trouble maker. Crappy bios etc. But i always managed to get it running in the end. but now  ?!?!
[04:45] <Guest_11> any other idea/solutiion i should look for ?
[04:47] <Guest_11> maybe some kernel boot options for the isntallation media ?
[04:48] <diogenes_> Guest_11, what's the issue?
[04:49] <Guest_11> The regular Kubuntu DVD 20.04.1 installation hangs on the live desktop
[04:49] <Guest_11> on my ZOTAC ZBOX ND22
[04:49] <diogenes_> !nomodeset
[04:49] <diogenes_> try that ^^^
[04:49] <Guest_11> ok. thanx
[04:50] <diogenes_> you're welcome
[05:24] <viewer|31> hello
[05:25] <viewer|31> can anyone solve mah prblm
[05:25] <diogenes_> !ask | viewer|31
[05:27] <viewer|31> so i want to copy something on usb ....bt its saying that you should have peremission
[05:27] <viewer|31> what should i do
[05:28] <viewer|31> and if i i want to install an package it ask for authentication password.......
[05:29] <diogenes_> viewer|31, what filesystem your usb drive has? i bet ext4? and of course it would ask for a password if you want to install something, it's not windows :)
[05:30] <viewer|31> but the team who gifted me this lppy.....didnot tell me anything about pass
[05:30] <viewer|31> its the situation for any usb
[05:31] <diogenes_> then ask the team to give you the password or reinstall the system.
[05:32] <viewer|31> they told that you cannot reinstall it for two years.....they are not giving me the pass.....without pass it is useless
[05:33] <diogenes_> viewer|31, then buy your own machine and do whatever you want and give this one back saying "thank you very much".
[05:34] <viewer|31> no i cant you cannot sold it for 2 years......i have another with windows .......but what about this one....it will become useless
[05:34] <viewer|31> if you have solution then try to help
[05:35] <viewer|31> i want the authentication password
[05:35] <viewer|31> -_- -_-
[05:36] <viewer|31> can anyone help me
[05:36] <diogenes_> if someone gave you the machine and set it up like this, it means they don't want you to mess with the system because by default there is no password needed for usb devices.
[05:36] <diogenes_> it means they did it on purpose.
[05:37] <viewer|31> if i have no authority over the machine then what to use....
[05:38] <viewer|31> i just want to reset the authentication pass
[05:38] <diogenes_> then just use the pre-installed applications, that's it.
[05:38] <viewer|31> can i not reset the pass
[05:39] <diogenes_> did they allow you to reset it?
[05:39] <viewer|31> yeah....think so....they said that you can install applications
[05:40] <viewer|31> =L
[05:40] <diogenes_> install applications doesn't mean reset password.
[05:40] <viewer|31> to install u hv to knw the pass
[05:41] <viewer|31> to knw the pass .....the only way is to reset it
[05:42] <diogenes_> so they just joke with you saying: yes you can install applications but we're not gonna give you the password? ou should have thought about a better story :)
[05:42] <diogenes_> you*
 Hi viewer! As said before, we are here to help people understand how to use Kubuntu, not break the system that likely is not yours to break.
 @diogenes_, LOL! Precisely!
[05:43] <viewer|31> that time i didnot know that linux is installed
[05:44] <viewer|31> or they will ask the pass
 Why can you not ask now or at any time in the close future?
[05:44] <viewer|31> i dont want to break the system i just want to know is there any other method to install an app
[05:45] <diogenes_> viewer|31, you can use appimages, they don't require password.
[05:45] <viewer|31> can you explain
[05:47] <diogenes_> viewer|31, for instance if you need viber, you type in googe: viber aooimage download and you will find the package that ends in packageame,AppImage, and just right click on it > properties > permissions > mark as executable then just double click on it and voila!
[05:47] <diogenes_> google*
[05:48] <diogenes_> appimage*
[05:48] <viewer|31> okay let me try
[05:52] <viewer|31>  okay i think it may work
[09:14] <lundrvs> Konsole: sudo rm -r <TempFilePath>
[10:21] <m_tadeu> hi...my akonadi stoped working after installing mysql (which removed mariadb)...I'm looking for solutions, but would appreciate some help

[14:50] <viewer|50> Hi everybody.
[14:50] <viewer|50> Is kubuntu using lightdm?
[14:52] <luna_> ssdm i think
[14:53] <viewer|50> Is lightdm important to use nvidia-prime?
 The last day of KDE aKademy continues in around 20 minutes
[15:01] <viewer|50> thank you
[15:01] <viewer|50> luna
[15:08] <BluesKaj> luna_, it's sddm
[15:09] <BluesKaj> to expanded it's Simple Desktop Display Manager
 *sitting in the last conference room for this years aKademy*
 hey guys, does kubuntu 20.04 provide the fractional scaling feature for hidpi screen?
 https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2020/04/ubuntu-20-04-fractional-scaling-support-setting similarly to this
 Yes, System Settings -> Display and Monitor
 If your graphic card is AMD or Intel and you don't run games via WINE, try Wayland as the scaling works better under wayland.
[18:16] <Guest51012> ?
[18:17] <oerheks> ?¿
[18:18] <Guest51012> any tips for tor links?
[18:19] <Guest51012> not decided whether go for cvv or btc wlt
[18:21] <oerheks> How is that related to Kubuntu support?
[18:21] <Guest51012> does it have to be related?
[18:21] <oerheks> yes.
[18:21] <oerheks> see the topic, thanks.
[19:46] <mparillo> Does anybody see funny display artifacts in this channel in Konversation?
[19:53] <serenity> mparillo: what do you mean exactly?
[19:55] <mparillo> Looks like light tire tracks coming down from bittin1 to the bottom of the backlog.
[20:23] <Dragnslcr> mparillo- yeah, I think it was some rendering weirdness because of the name of that IrcsomeBot user
[21:43] <mparillo> Thank you. Maybe if I had more fonts it might render, but I am happy to know it is not a hardware issue.
[22:10] <Dragnslcr> mparillo- it happened a day or two ago, too
[22:47] <mparillo> Thank you. I thought I saw it then also, so thanks for confirming.
[22:56] <magic_ninja> how do you delete the plasma config files? I can't find them
[23:19] <valorie> in ~/.config
[23:20] <valorie> magic_ninja: ^^^
[23:20] <valorie> probably better to just rename them in case you want any of them back
[23:20] <valorie> they are just text files and thus tiny
[23:35] <magic_ninja> which ones are the plasma specific ones, though?
[23:35] <magic_ninja> anything with plasma int he name?
[23:35] <magic_ninja> and thank you
[23:40] <valorie> yes, they will have plasma in the name
