[05:36] <itskevinn> oh wait is this purely a support only channel?
[06:04] <guiverc> Yes this is the Kubuntu support channel, use a -offtopic for general chat
 Hi everybody, so I'm running Kubuntu 20.04 on a HP laptop. Sometimes when I try to shut down the system (using the menu) it restarts instead. What could it be?
 Anyone got a fix for display showing flashing glitches
[07:08] <diogenes_> YesEyeCan, try to change the backend from opengl to xrender.
[07:16] <Guest48984> Good morning
[07:35] <amprxc> Hello, I'm tryting to install Kubuntu on my laptop from an external CR ROM writer / reader which is connected via USB to my computer. I'm able to boot on Kubuntu, but this last doesn't detect my laptop disk. When I run "fdisk -l", I can only see the CDROM disk space. Then, of course, the installer tells me that there is not enough place available.
[07:35] <amprxc> Any idea ? Thanks
[07:51] <voicu> hi everyone

[13:27] <Ati> since the latest kernel update 5.4.0-47 my system can't boot. When I boot with 5.4.0-45 it starts but sends an error message about firmware. How can I fix this?
 Anyone know why I can't send files from kde into my android phone?
[16:13] <drupol> Hellow
[16:13] <BluesKaj> drupol, o/
[16:14] <drupol> I upgraded to KDE Neon a few days ago and I'd like to go back to regular ubuntu version. how can I do that ?
[16:15] <BluesKaj> ubuntu or kubuntu, either one will need a clean istall
[16:15] <BluesKaj> kde-neon is not an ubuntu flavour
[16:15] <drupol> But when I do: lsb_release -a
[16:16] <drupol> I get this:
[16:16] <drupol> No LSB modules are available.
[16:16] <drupol> Distributor ID: Neon
[16:16] <drupol> Description:    KDE neon User Edition 5.19
[16:16] <drupol> Release:        20.04
[16:16] <drupol> Codename:       focal
[16:17] <drupol> I get this: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/fmkcJ2bJ7H/
[16:17] <drupol> It seems to me that this is a Ubuntu KDE Neon flavour, am I wrong?
[16:18] <drupol> In /etc/apt/sources.list, I found this: deb http://archive.neon.kde.org/user focal main
[16:18] <BluesKaj> it's based on ubuntu, but it's a "fork" not a flavour
[16:18] <drupol> Oh.
[16:18] <drupol> Do you think I can go back to the original Ubuntu?
 @drupol, there is no "upgrade" to neon - how did you do that?
[16:19] <BluesKaj> back up your data to a separate drive or partition then install (k)ubuntu or whatever flavour you want, kubuntu uses the kde/plasma desktop
[16:20] <drupol> niceplaces: I added the line in /etc/apt/sources.list
[16:20] <drupol> See: https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=309&t=135278
 @drupol, so you just upgraded some packages i guess. switch back to the ubuntu repos and you should be goos i believe ;)
[16:21] <BluesKaj> that's not officailly supported here afaik
[16:21] <drupol> Ok I will try, so, just removing the line is enough you think?
[16:21] <BluesKaj> but that's your choice
[16:22] <BluesKaj> i don't know ...somehow I doubt it , but you can try
[16:22] <drupol> nikp3h: I removed the line, did apt-get update, upgrade, dist-upgrade,...
[16:22] <drupol> https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/pcQ5zJKh/
[16:22] <drupol> That's what I have
[16:23] <BluesKaj> doesn't load here
[16:23] <BluesKaj> anyway i have to go
 @drupol, i believe you should backup your data and try a clean reinstall as suggested ;)
[16:28] <drupol> nikp3h: That's impossible... I have a corporate laptop... I can't reinstall :^(
[16:49] <drupol> How can I reinstall 20.04 from a terminal?
 @drupol, buy a new laptop... ok sorry that wasn't funny... but you shouldn't have done wat you did in the first place since it is discouraged everywhere.. … do you have any backup available?....
[16:56] <drupol> nikp3h: no, no backup. I guess there is a way to reinstall this properly
 Hey guys, I minimized Kubuntu installation window and it just disappeared. How do I get it back?
[19:24] <serenity> maybe alt+tab and toggle to it
 Unfortunately, alt+tab doesn't seem to do anything
[19:26] <serenity> isn't there an install icon on the desktop?
 Desktop is empty, ie just a picture and mouse pointer, no icons, no taskbar
 I suppose I need to hit Continue or some other button on that minimized window for the installation to finish... But can't find a way to restore that window :/
[19:32] <serenity> is this a live environment?
 I'm not sure what you are asking for. It's a personal computer with unfinished Kubuntu installation and no other OS
[19:36] <serenity> If this pc is empty, why not start overß
[19:36] <serenity> ?
 ie reboot...
 Will do that if everything else fails, but seems a little excessive
[19:39] <serenity> excessive? We are talking about an empty machine and no config has been done yet ;)
 I mean, reinstalling the whole OS seems a little excessive for having minimized a window
 @Andrius, turn it off, boot from live usb again
 and you'll be good to go
 @Andrius, He won't be reinstalling, since he doesn't have anything installed in the first place
 Just turn it off and on
 I had to hold power button down for 5 or so seconds to power off. Partitions on the disk got messed up, I'm reformatting it atm
 @Andrius, using gparted?
 Is anybody know how to use omada ? It's a software for tplink access points controller
 Anyway, if there's no way to restore a minimized window, the option should be disabled imo. Maybe I will figure out how to report it someday. Thanks and bye.
 @Andrius, It is not a general problem I guess, I myself have heard it for the first time
 Try installing first and then check if the bug stays
 Hello, will there be a Kubuntu 20.10 Beta coming out on October 1st or is that only happening with the regular ubuntu version?
[21:55] <krytarik> Yes, that's also for all flavors.
