 How can I install conky widget on kde?
[06:24] <valorie> !info conky
[06:24] <valorie> looks like you just install from Discover or sudo apt install conky
[06:25] <valorie> @SharGen19 ^^^
 @valorie, Sudo
 I used terminal
 But idk how to configure it
[06:50] <valorie> I have no clue
[06:50] <valorie> it's not kde software and I've never used it
[06:50] <valorie> you might find people in #ubuntu who know
 https://www.linux.com/topic/desktop/how-install-and-configure-conky/
[06:52] <valorie> ok, if you could find the answer yourself, why ask here?
 I found later
 I read it and found a second step
 That's easy a
 shargen@shargen-Vostro-3558:~$ sudo apt-get install conky-manager … Reading package lists... Done … Building dependency tree        … Reading state information... Done … E: Unable to locate package conky-manager … shargen@shargen-Vostro-3558:~$
 im having this error
 there is no such package in Ubuntu
 Is the partition created automatically during installation or does it need to be created manually?

 @SharGen19, Try updating the repository on your pc. Then try installing conky again. If there is no package on repository server then you cannot install. Give a try.
 Well I did downloaded and set it up
 Else you can download the conky source files and compile them on your pc.
 But it's too buggy
 When I use to click on widget it gets disappeare
 Hmm try download source files and compile them on your pc.
 I have no idea how to do that 😅
 I'm new to linux

[12:13] <jbfly> Thank you for kubuntu!
[12:18] <oerheks> !yay
 @SharGen19, Google how to compile on linux
 @SharGen19, Drivers for other printers in same series will work for your printer. Try to choose the printer with closest matching hardware configuration.

 im having errors
[15:35] <tomreyn> yes, you're trying to run a command that's not available. often, that's because the package providing this command is not installed.
[15:40] <BluesKaj> @SharGen19, whynot just open your sources.list in dolphin?
 https://seegatesite.com/driver-printer-canon-pixma-g2010-ubuntu/
 i want to install driver for my printer
[15:52] <BluesKaj> @SharGen19, you don't need vim to copy those sources to /etc/apt/sources.list, if you are on kubuntu 16.04
 https://seegatesite.com/driver-printer-canon-pixma-g2010-ubuntu/
 im just following this
 i have that printer
[15:53] <BluesKaj> yes, I looked at it, my suggetion still stands
[15:54] <BluesKaj> suggestion
[15:55] <BluesKaj> just copy and paste the sources there to /etc/apt/sources.list and save it
[15:56] <BluesKaj> then sudo apt update;sudo apt upgrade
[15:59] <BluesKaj> but those sources are for kubuntu 16.04 ...is that your OS ?
[15:59] <oerheks> i think you need this package for that canon pixma, cups-bjnp
[15:59] <oerheks> !info cups-bjnp
[15:59] <oerheks> yes it does, stupid bot
 well i did installed it successfully  but now i donno what to do
 step 6. Please add the printer as usual

[16:07] <oerheks> interesting, why do you click away from canon?
 (Photo, 1280x719) https://irc-attachments.kde.org/50h01Ejp/file_37415.jpg
 what should i choose there are so many
[16:08] <oerheks> no, you found it already https://irc-attachments.kde.org/kiJu3LDC/file_37412.jpg
 i have a colored printer intank that a scanner inbuild with it
 @SharGen19, choose asnear as per your model of printer
 i have a g2010 which is of g2000 series
 i cant see that in list
 @oerheks, TRUE!!
[16:11] <oerheks> so ? click next or trow away that printer, it is not even in openprinting.org
 @oerheks, 🙈
 @SharGen19, Did it work with any other distro?
 idk im new to linux, i was looking for a distro and i settled on kubuntu, now im adding things to make it my daily driver
 and completely replace from windows
 @SharGen19, Best would be to read about ventoy for you to try out new distros. Although i dunno your printer generation but even mine is pretty old yet it works smoothly with many distros and not with some
[16:17] <oerheks> !info cups-backend-bjnp
 @Abhishek23180, how u added ur printer?
 @SharGen19, I didnt need to  .. i first installed Linux mint then kubuntu . It automatically detected myMG series canon printer which i got out from my garage
 @SharGen19, Use this link to learn how to extract and install tar.gz, gz2  files … https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://sourcedigit.com/20839-extract-install-tar-gz-files-ubuntu/&ved=2ahUKEwiBzbimuKrsAhUTg-YKHXGpDecQFjACegQIBxAE&usg=AOvVaw3Mv0ynmkAkDAC0GRYSalyQ

 i compiled and installed
 but idk what to do now
[16:32] <oerheks> print something?
 (Photo, 1280x719) https://irc-attachments.kde.org/CORj7Ody/file_37417.jpg
 nothing is her
 here
 @SharGen19, You mean you downloaded the driver?
 Check downloads
 https://seegatesite.com/driver-printer-canon-pixma-g2010-ubuntu/
 i followed this
 i downloaded and complied and ran
 but idk what to do now
[16:35] <oerheks> but... you found it already https://irc-attachments.kde.org/kiJu3LDC/file_37412.jpg
 when i click next it ask to choose the brand
 than i choose band and that it show weird names
 (Photo, 1280x719) https://irc-attachments.kde.org/Hx3hZGaW/file_37418.jpg
[16:37] <oerheks> oh, but you already have found it, .... scroll down in that list, how hard could this be?
 uhm but i dont know what im looking for?
 my device name?
[16:40] <Maik> @SharGen19 it's not all handholding, try to take some more efford yourself, search a bit and try. Otherwise you'll never learn.
 @SharGen19, Foomatic is Linux driver name. You select the canon series written ahead of foomatic.
 yeah but im trying from very long and now its sucking
 Foomatic is printer database for linux
 mhm one sec lemme try
 @SharGen19, Because you are following complicated instructions from Google. Select simple tutorials on Google.
 uhm
 No need to use vim and create /etc/ *** folder.
 Find g2010 in foomatic database
 And you are done.
 If nothing works try generic driver. It will work but you may find some margin and page size errors. You need to manually correct. Printing speed may reduce.
 @sammy_v, https://openprinting.github.io/
 this web?
 @SharGen19, In the list shown on your pc.
 @sammy_v, where ur asking me search "g2010"
 In printer menu of settings.
 Shown in your screenshot
 (Photo, 1280x719) https://irc-attachments.kde.org/5XwDDeFH/file_37421.jpg
 @sammy_v, there is no menu for searching
 Go in your pc setting for printer.....U don't understand simple things...
 can u control my pc?
 remote view
[17:05] <IrcsomeBot1> Matt Chambers was added by: Matt Chambers
[17:05] <IrcsomeBot1> <Matt Chambers> ohh thanks
 @sammy_v do u have ur system with u? can u use team viewer and install the driver?
 Open printer setting in your pc. Select canon printer and then open pick a driver setting, s search for g2010foomatic driver
 Very simple
 No need of teamviewer
 @sammy_v, there is no g2010foomatic
 thats the issue
 Try generic driver. It will work
 Take trial print and do manual adjustment for page settings.
 @sammy_v, nope not working
 @SharGen19, Try another distro like Linux Mint and return here coz Kubuntu is great!!
 As i said read about ventoy for trying out different distros
[17:21] <oerheks> changing distro does not change the available drivers.
[17:22] <IrcsomeBot1> egasemi was added by: egasemi
[17:22] <oerheks> get a supported printer, see openprinting.org
 @oerheks, Dude .. it does. The collection of drivers and software is different.. you maybe right as even i am new to linux!
[17:26] <oerheks> no, open printer drivers are the same.
[17:28] <tomreyn> SharGen19: which printer model (not just the brand) are you trying to make work on which kubuntu version?
 ohh .. but my printer is older than Shar*  Yet thxfor the info
[17:30] <oerheks> canon pixma g2010
 @tomreyn, canon g2010
 https://openprinting.org/printer/Canon/Canon-Pixma_g2010
 https://openprinting.org/printer/Canon/Canon-PIXMA_G2000
[18:08] <tomreyn> SharGen19: i agree opn the paperweight comment. those series are known to be badly supported. sell it online, buy a replacement.
[22:26] <IrcsomeBot1> <Dr Gonzo> seems like you need to use them both
