IrcsomeBot1 | <therealriganb> @chak, yes pantheon is among the best for non tinkerers, pretty understandable | 02:10 |
IrcsomeBot1 | <therealriganb> @chak, Idk, auto tiling is something that seems pretty useful for certain people but I like doing it manually | 02:10 |
nieminen | Hello! Can someone help me with an odd issue? Just installed fresh Kubuntu, and I've got probably a weird setup, where I have two HD monitors, and two 2K monitors, which may contribute to the issue. | 03:57 |
nieminen | When hovering over certain windows/text/text-inputs, my cursor jumps to about 3x the size it should be. | 03:57 |
nieminen | Seems fine over system title bars | 03:58 |
IrcsomeBot1 | <sammy_v> @nieminen, Did you apply any accessibility features? | 04:00 |
nieminen | Nope, totally fresh. Installed, ran updates, restarted, and set up my monitor condfiguration. | 04:04 |
nieminen | I'll check and see if any are active though | 04:04 |
IrcsomeBot1 | <Swift110> Cool | 04:04 |
nieminen | Nothing seems apparent | 04:04 |
nieminen | Saw one Stack Exchange post that mentioned replacing the cursor pack with one that only contains a single resolution. I'd rather not unless it's my only option. | 04:05 |
nieminen | Running MSI GTX 1660. According to the driver manager, I'm on the open source driver. | 04:08 |
nieminen | https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/241449 | 04:10 |
nieminen | This answer suggests the auto login is part of the issue. I'll switch that and see if it makes a difference. | 04:11 |
Voidablazer | is kde plasma usable with wayland yet? | 04:12 |
-Voidablazer:#kubuntu- ? | 04:12 | |
keithzg-M | Voidablazer: I've found it so on my laptop. In fact as of 20.04, mysteriously Xorg no longer works right there, but Wayland *does*! | 04:40 |
keithzg-M | This causes some issues because Xorg 100% doesn't work and unfortunately SDDM still opens in Xorg, although it supports choosing Wayland sessions. So I had to go with another DM. But that was the biggest issue I've noticed. | 04:40 |
IrcsomeBot1 | <sammy_v> @nieminen, Ok then it must be a bug. | 04:41 |
IrcsomeBot1 | <sammy_v> Try changing cursor. | 04:42 |
IrcsomeBot1 | <sammy_v> @nieminen, Possible | 04:42 |
* keithzg-M had thought `do-release-upgarde -d` failing meant the upgrade was over . . . nope the sources are already switched over, okay, lets do this then :D | 04:43 | |
IrcsomeBot1 | <GalantGTR> 20.10 beta is too unstable... | 04:55 |
keithzg-M | GalantGTR: Oh I have multiple other computers here at home, and even a dual-boot setup on the machine in question; unstable isn't a big concern for me! | 05:04 |
IrcsomeBot1 | <GalantGTR> Try to do anything, crashed the desktop, than the settings program...it's to early to use it as a beta. … It's an alfa version! | 05:04 |
IrcsomeBot1 | <GalantGTR> @keithzg-M, I have 2OS boot too.,Win10 and KUbuntu...but it's the first time that KUbuntu beta is so bad pre-released | 05:06 |
keithzg-M | GalantGTR: Well when you consider the release cadence it makes some sense; the last release was the LTS, a lot of the stuff in the *buntu repos for 20.10 is all the stuff that was held up because it wasn't necessarily tested and stable enough yet! | 05:10 |
IrcsomeBot1 | <GalantGTR> @keithzg-M, I had an lts 20.04 and do the upgrade to 20.10 beta...that was to bad... I'm really sad that this time is crashed 1/3 off all apps and around 25% of all process | 05:13 |
IrcsomeBot1 | <GalantGTR> I send a 1000yh reports...but I'm not sure that they can fixed all problems until 24.10 | 05:14 |
keithzg-M | If a lot of things are crashing, it's quite possible there's some single central issue. | 05:14 |
IrcsomeBot1 | <GalantGTR> @keithzg-M, I'm going to uo-2-date it everyday...but the problem that discover crashed...and I can't change the settings of updater source... | 05:18 |
keithzg-M | GalantGTR: No need to use Discover, just use `apt` from the terminal :) | 05:18 |
IrcsomeBot1 | <GalantGTR> Before I could choose between release and lts...now it's not possible | 05:18 |
IrcsomeBot1 | <GalantGTR> How to change that in terminal? | 05:19 |
keithzg-M | Uhhh, you can't because that's not something that can be changed. | 05:19 |
keithzg-M | That is to say: you've already upgraded past 20.04, which is the last LTS release. | 05:19 |
keithzg-M | You could do the very messy thing and change your sources in /etc/apt/sources.list to be focal rather than groovy, then force reinstallation of things manually. | 05:20 |
keithzg-M | But downgrading isn't really supported. | 05:20 |
IrcsomeBot1 | <GalantGTR> I was on 20.04lts...than upgrade to 20.10 beta :(( | 05:20 |
keithzg-M | Yeah, and 20.10 is not an LTS, thus Discover wouldn't give you the option to only upgrade to LTS releases. Next LTS would be 22.04. | 05:21 |
IrcsomeBot1 | <GalantGTR> I'm waiting for a release...than it's possible to run the discover I think | 05:21 |
IrcsomeBot1 | <GalantGTR> 22.04? | 05:22 |
keithzg-M | Maybe, it won't just magically fix when there's a release though. | 05:22 |
keithzg-M | Yeah, 22.04 is the next LTS, the LTS releases come out every 2 years. | 05:22 |
IrcsomeBot1 | <GalantGTR> Oh year every 2 years. U r right | 05:22 |
IrcsomeBot1 | <GalantGTR> Thx...I will try to reinstall 20.04 lts....if it's not possiy to downgrade | 05:23 |
keithzg-M | Well, it's possible! Just not officially supported ;) | 05:24 |
keithzg-M | If the stars align it might even be as simple as changing every instance of groovy to focal in /etc/apt/sources.list and then running `sudo apt install kubuntu-desktop^` or such | 05:25 |
keithzg-M | Chaos may ensure, however ;) | 05:25 |

keithzg-M | s/ensure/ensue (chaos is not ensured, although it is also not unlikely, hah) | 05:29 |
lordievader | Good morning | 06:42 |
Voidablazer | do you suggest wayland with kde? | 07:15 |
IrcsomeBot1 | <mx_tom> If I were you I would still wait a little bit. There has been a lot of progress with wayland on KDE recently but not all of it has found its way to Kubuntu yet and there is still a bunch of bugs. However if you want to try it it's definitely usable just not quite stable. If I were you I would wait at least until 21.04 but probably until 21.10 and then it might be kind of stable | 07:59 |

BluesKaj | user|31610, just ask your question | 13:14 |
user|31610 | I don't know how I hade an error and crash KDE plasma | 13:15 |
user|31610 | now I can run latte dock | 13:15 |
user|31610 | like impossible to reinstall proprely | 13:16 |

BluesKaj | which kubuntu release? | 13:18 |
BluesKaj | 20.04 ok | 13:18 |
BluesKaj | have you updated and upgraded your packages lately? | 13:19 |
user|31610 | I tried to update all yes, but changed nothing | 13:21 |
BluesKaj | not just update, but also upgrade | 13:21 |
user|31610 | With a sudo apt upgrade ? | 13:24 |
=== CompuDesktop is now known as Compu | ||
BluesKaj | yes | 13:24 |
user|31610 | yes I dis that too | 13:25 |
BluesKaj | ok | 13:26 |
BluesKaj | look in /var/log/syslog for errors | 13:27 |
user|31610 | I'm on Windows right now i need to reboot, It's possible to come back directly to this forum ? | 13:28 |
BluesKaj | yes, the kubuntu default irc client is Konversation | 13:29 |
user|31610 | I'll come back in 1min then | 13:30 |
user|35317 | I'm back | 13:34 |
BluesKaj | ok | 13:35 |
user|35317 | I had bug with the interface too, like don't see widget, app or weird colors | 13:35 |
BluesKaj | which interface? | 13:36 |
user|35317 | Kde plasma | 13:37 |
BluesKaj | do you have the default panel? | 13:38 |
user|35317 | that mean ? | 13:38 |
user|35317 | But i think yes | 13:38 |
BluesKaj | task manager etc | 13:39 |
user|35317 | yes | 13:40 |
user|35317 | I try to reset the panel too | 13:43 |
BluesKaj | what kind of gpu/graphics ? | 13:44 |
user|35317 | intel core with a nvidia graphics | 13:44 |
user|35317 | had to install nvidia driver afterwards | 13:45 |
BluesKaj | are you running in legacy bios mode or uefi? | 13:48 |
user|35317 | I think uefi, how can I be sure ? | 13:49 |
=== leaftype2 is now known as leaftype | ||
BluesKaj | run df -h in the terminal and look for /boot/efi | 13:50 |
user|35317 | yes it's write /boot/efi | 13:53 |
BluesKaj | ok | 13:53 |
BluesKaj | was just making sure that your computer isn't too old to handle graphics like the latte dock thing | 13:54 |
user|35317 | It's a good machine I won't have problems like that | 13:55 |
BluesKaj | ok now Open the KDE Application Launcher (button at the far left end of the Kicker --aka KDE Panel) and click the Applications tab at the bottom and then click Utilities. You should see an entry labeled Dock | 14:00 |
user|35317 | I have nothing called Dock | 14:05 |
user|35317 | but I have the Latte widget | 14:05 |
BluesKaj | it should show latte dock | 14:07 |
BluesKaj | brb | 14:09 |
user|35317 | It open a very thin dock, but not the same settings,etc | 14:11 |
BluesKaj | well it worked here,.i just removed it | 14:12 |
user|35317 | It worked the first time i install it.. | 14:13 |
user|35317 | until I had my KDE issue | 14:13 |
BluesKaj | perhaps you could right click on the panel and adjust the height | 14:14 |
IrcsomeBot1 | <RikMills> @GalantGTR, That should be fixed in 20.10 now. May still crash until the system is rebooted or some cache somewhere clears. | 14:15 |
BluesKaj | @RikMills, yeah I'm using GG and have no issues with the dock | 14:16 |
user|35317 | I tried | 14:17 |
user|35317 | doesn't work | 14:17 |
BluesKaj | but I prefer the icons only taskbar instead | 14:17 |
user|35317 | That look nice and the fact it appear on top of app when you're close is nice | 14:18 |
BluesKaj | that zoomt effect doesn't do much for me, but that's my taste | 14:20 |
BluesKaj | zoomy | 14:20 |
user|35317 | Yes but it's not normal it doesn't work like the first time when i de/install it now | 14:22 |
IrcsomeBot1 | <RikMills> @RikMills, Seems another patch might be needed | 14:32 |
user|56501 | Still no answer for why latte insn't working ? | 14:48 |
IrcsomeBot1 | <RikMills> @GalantGTR I have just uploaded a fix for discover settings page crash to 20.10. Hopefully that will be available to test in a few hrs | 14:57 |

user|698 | I have some issues with kubuntu 20.04 and I want to reinstall I like you can with Ubuntu | 15:54 |
user|698 | But after I restart with the USB boot and select download, I have the same procedure and they ask me the partitions of the disk | 15:55 |
user|698 | Do I need to format something? Just install like that? The aim is not to lose data | 15:56 |
user|698 | Thanks for your help I found nothing :) | 15:56 |

steveire | Is it possible to upgrade a 18.10 system anymore? | 16:32 |
steveire | `sudo do-release-upgrade` doesn't work. | 16:32 |
IrcsomeBot1 | <michellabrie> Hello. What is the error message ? | 16:33 |
Aristide | i'm « Michel labrie » its easier for me on Quassel xD So, steveire, what is error message (if error message appear) ? | 16:34 |
steveire | `An upgrade from 'cosmic' to 'focal' is not supported with this tool. ` | 16:34 |
steveire | https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/sYcVhcjDg2/ | 16:35 |
steveire | Is there some other way? Just hack my sources.list? | 16:35 |
steveire | I think that's what I used to do years ago. | 16:35 |
Aristide | Ok. I have check. Repository has been deleted (end of life since 2019). Maybe with replace all entrys in source files (manually replace cosmic to focal), and update + dist-upgrade and pray for work =) | 16:37 |

IrcsomeBot1 | <sammy_v> @Aristide, Maybe manually adding focal fossa repository links to update manager will work. Do delete old version repository links. | 20:06 |
