 the ibus default settings changed in 20.10 which probably makes that start if it is installed. apt-get purge ibus should get rid of it after upgrade if you don't want it. we only need ibus-data package installed for the plasma emoji-picker to work, but in 20.04 that pulled all of ibus. in 20.10 the dependency has been fixed, so you won't see any of this on a new install.
 that should probably be added to the release/upgrade notes
 Hi folks, I'm on Kubuntu 18.04 with 4 GB of ram and i3 2.2 GHz CPU. It becomes very sluggish if, e.g. if I have more than 10 browser tabs and running a node based dev environment. Should I be upgrading to 20.04 or 20.10?
 @abhishekbatra, Wait till they push an update
[04:09] <guiverc> @abhishekbatra, I'd try and upgrade your ram if you can
[04:12] <Maik> and try to reduce the swappiness, the more swap is being used the more sluggish the system can become
 All good advice, I did try 20.04 earlier this year and it was almost unusable for me.
[04:16] <Maik> by now most bugs should be squashed in 20.04.1, i don't run Kubuntu though but main Ubuntu runs just fine
 @Maik, Do you have a similar hardware configuration as mine?
[04:18] <Maik> @abhishekbatra i have a older Lenovo Thinkpad T410 with a i5 processor and 4GB of RAM on which i run main Ubuntu
 Seems worth trying out again
[04:28] <Maik> @abhishekbatra it's always better to wait for the first point release when using LTS
 Yeah. Force upgrade is buggy for me
 @Maik, Thanks for sharing that!
 @YesEyeCan, What would you recommend?
[04:29] <Maik> @abhishekbatra you're most welcome
 @abhishekbatra, Stay with 19 LTS
 @YesEyeCan, You mean 18.04? 19 won't be LTS
[04:32] <Maik> @YesEyeCan 19 is no LTS
[04:32] <Maik> and both are EOL anyway
[04:33] <Maik> 20.04 is the latest LTS, 22.04 will be the next
 Oh well
[04:41] <Maik> LTS releases come every two years :)
 Yeah 18 then
 I'm confused
[04:43] <Maik> nothing to be confused about :D
 I feel like I might change to other distro
 20 is bugging me out
 Random display turning off, random screen glitching out
[04:44] <Maik> troubleshoot it and file bug reports so it can get fixed, changing distro's isn't really helpful
 How do I troubleshoot? I'm not sure how to get logs either
[04:46] <Maik> the web is yours and i bet your search engine isn't broken all of the sudden now, is it? ;)
[04:46] <Maik> besides that, every distro has it's pro's and cons
 Sup
 All flavours of Ubuntu run fine on my lenovo miix 320 tablet with 2gb/32gb configuration.
 I used it for sales productivity. Run email, hubspot and slack on it.
 I am using kubuntu lts 20.04 now.
 @sammy_v, Nice
 How many browser tabs do you generally have open?
 I intelligently use 2 browsers. Chrome for work and Mozilla for personal use. I keep 4-5 tabs open in each. I can use both simultaneously. The system does not hang in this case.
 Hubspot plugin works only on chrome.
 Hence I cannot use opera.
 If you prefer only 1 browser. Try opera. It's light and fast compared to chrome and mozilla
 @sammy_v, I'll take a leaf out of popular culture and say "smort"
 Hahaha

 Hi
 Battery status in system tray is false detection?
[09:10] <IrcsomeBot1> licencode was added by: licencode
 @Empire201_Off, Please elaborate on the issue you are facing
 (Photo, 960x1280) https://irc-attachments.kde.org/1kEiBhaQ/file_37959.jpg Second under the battery Battery status which is in Hungarian Akkumulátor állapota....
 @abhishekbatra
 That is likely the battery capacity
 @Empire201_Off, For example if the max rating was 100 Wh, it will only provide a maximum of 84 Wh currently
 And if it goes down to zero then what will happen? Does this indicate exactly?
 @Empire201_Off, As time passes the amount of power a battery can deliver keeps reducing, so at some point if it hypothetically goes down to zero, it won't provide any power backup, and you'll have to run your computer on AC power.
 @abhishekbatra, If I understand correctly if it is zero then it has little? Or can it only be used with a charger?
 @Empire201_Off, Then it will only work with a charger
 But does Kubuntu accurately indicate this and not write false data?
 I haven't faced any false data reporting
 It's actually not even ubuntu, probably some power related module in linux
 They get that data from the battery directly if I remember correctly
 When I first received my laptop from a retailer, the battery's capacity was at 87%
 I think it's quite common
 Interesting topic .... Then it's built into the kernel! Brilliant.
 @Empire201_Off, You should get in touch with a hardware expert to get better details
 @abhishekbatra, Windows I think has taken a lot of capacity
 @abhishekbatra, All right! Thanks!
 22th At what time will the new version come out?
 @Maik, I forgot to mention I have zram configured. What would be the recommended swappiness in that case?
[10:45] <Maik> zram is only useful on machines with 2 GB or less RAM afaik
[10:45] <Maik> swappiness should be reduced to 10 or 5 on machines with 4GB RAM
[10:46] <Maik> standard swappiness after a buntu install is set to 60
[10:46] <Maik> by default
[10:46] <Wenz> A bit ambitious, but any method to get the icon only 5.20 task bar in 20.04 ?
 @Maik, Testing it out with 10 now
[10:49] <Maik> rightclick on the taskbar and look at the alternatives Wenz
[10:49] <Maik> it's been a option since i don't know when
 (Document) https://irc-attachments.kde.org/JFBwx2Xb/file_37960.png
[10:49] <Wenz> That is great @Maik
[10:50] <Maik> :)
[10:52] <Wenz> This is briliant :thumbsup:
[10:52] <Wenz> :)
[10:54] <Wenz> Got to go. Thanks
[11:10] <user|98486> Is interface bonding possible in kubuntu
[11:13] <Maik> user|98486: https://www.tecmint.com/configure-network-bonding-teaming-in-ubuntu/
[11:13] <Maik> there are more results when Googleing for it
[12:06] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[13:41] <Wenz> Anyone reported the Kscreen2 bug yet ?
[13:41] <Wenz> it keeps pestering even when there is no external display introduced
 @sammy_v, Thats pretty cool. Is that a convertible laptop?
 Hey blueskaj
[13:42] <BluesKaj> @Swift110, hi
 @Swift110, It's10.1 inch tablet. Tablet can detach from keyboard.
[13:44] <Maik> Wenz: check launchpad for bug reports on it
 How r u blueskaj
[14:14] <BluesKaj> r u ?
[14:14] <swift110> im great BluesKaj
[14:16] <BluesKaj> !u | @swift110
[14:17] <swift110> sorry about that
[14:17] <BluesKaj> get used to using real words on irc
[14:18] <Maik> lol... after all these years on IRC you don't tell me you didn't know about that
[14:18] <Maik> :D
[14:19] <BluesKaj> that's not the point Maik, and you know it:-)
[14:19] <Maik> true but somehow to me it is

[19:11] <nescius> hello, do you know how to setup kde apps to look like gnome-shell applications?
[19:12] <nescius> i am using adwaita-dark and cannot seem to get the same in KDE apps
[19:18] <oerheks> nescius, use the adwaita-dark-kde theme ? https://store.kde.org/p/1335337/
[19:18] <oerheks> plasma themes are different
[19:18] <oerheks> or adwaita-qt
[19:24] <nescius> oerheks: thanks! adwaita-dark-kde does not show same colours as gtk apps (its less reddish) but i will try the adwaita-qt thing
[19:25] <nescius> and its wierd because I was unable to find that particular background colour anywhere in the detailed config
 Guys, where do you add the basic icons on your desktop? (Home, Computer, Trash)
[19:35] <valorie> ugh, for the "guys"
[19:35] <valorie> please
[19:35] <valorie> we're not all guys
[19:38]  * woozalia is also non-guy (to the extent that it matters)
 Can you not bring in senseless gender arguments and focus on the question instead
[19:42] <diogenes_> 'guys' is interchengeable for both genders.
[20:20] <valorie> diogenes_: we try to be inclusive here
[20:20] <valorie> "guys" does not include ME
[20:21] <valorie> I very often help with specific questions here
[20:21] <valorie> and don't very often protest language'
[20:22] <valorie> it is NOT inclusive language
 Don't do that here. This is Kubuntu support, not gender protest support
[22:29] <tomreyn> inclusive speech still seems desirable in a community like this, i would think.
 I'd think so to.
 too
