QuantosHi, KUbuntu 20.04 LTS x64 - when I partition and format a drive why do I then have to take ownership of it?06:11
QuantosThat should be part and parcel of partitioning and formatting06:11
QuantosFor some reason the drives belong to root, I don't really want to do this for every drive06:13
QuantosThe same thing happens whether I tried KDE Partition Manager or GParted06:15
diogenes_that's because you have to run gparted as root, use gnome-disk-utiloty06:17
diogenes_utility*06:17
QuantosWhy is it doing the same thing with KDEPM?06:17
QuantosIs it something I set up wrong?06:18
diogenes_i have no clue about kde.06:18
QuantosOh okay06:18
QuantosFair enough06:18
QuantosThanks, I'll give that utility a try06:18
QuantosI appreciate it06:18
Quantosdiogenes_: Cheers mate, fixed it up quality :P06:37
QuantosHave a great evening06:37

user|60(kubuntu 20.04,,,plasma 5.18.5,,,frameworks 5.68.0,,, qt 5.12.8,,, kernel 5.4.0-54 ) dolphin search function stopped working. can't find a file I'm looking at. ran balooctl disable, then purge the enable ,,, still the same problem. looked at many support forums, no suggestions helped14:39
BluesKajtry the find command in the konsole14:41
BluesKajor locate14:41
user|60I tried [ ~& find *pol* ]  nothing. tried [ ~& locate *pol*]   it found only one file. I place 2 files with names containing 'pol'14:44
user|60tried this  [ find . -name "*pol*" ]     it worked and found all the files that contain    pol  in their names14:50
user|60I'll just continue to use the terminal. never had a problem with  dolphin until now. web search highlighted the same problem reported by many #?# but no practical solutions offered...15:08
tinomHello15:11
tinomKate is a good code editor, but i have a bug. Chinese chars will Sink a few pixels, when the Chinese chars and English chars in the same line, "_" will be hidden. Does anyone have the same problem?15:16
IrcsomeBot1<Tolga Erok> Hi all. I'm having trouble with kubuntu accessing the network printers. States forbidden access/maintenance?  â€¦ I have edited my smb.conf file so the system can see and connect to my USB on my smb1 router.  â€¦ I.e. …  client min protocol = NT1 …  server min protocol = NT115:41
not_me_againHi, I'm trying to install Kubuntu to a somewhat troubling system and Grub2 is not overwriting the old grub2 even though I'm very certain that it's writing to the right drive (/dev/sda no partition number)17:18
not_me_againit installs sucessfully but then on reboot the old grub2 gets loaded17:19
not_me_againfor what it's worth I'm using GPT with real BIOS17:19
eeosnot_me_again: do you ave the grub into a separat boot partition?17:22
not_me_againHmm... actually, that might be the case.. yes17:23
not_me_againso, /dev/sda1?17:23
not_me_againOr rather, is it that grub2 is by default installing to it but there's another grub in the mbr?17:24
eeosnot_me_again: are you sure that is the partition and not the whole disk? Can you run a df for me , please?17:28
not_me_againIt's on a different device but I can do that soon as I just re-installed kubuntu with the bootloader on an old USB stick and that is booting right now17:28
not_me_againWhat would you expect to see in df? By boot partition I mean the legacy bios partition that's available with GPT - it would not show up in df output17:29
not_me_again/boot is on the @ subvolume (using btrfs for /)17:30
eeosnot_me_again: I think it could be useful to format the boot partition again, that is what I would do, a reinstall the grub17:31
eeosnot_me_again: not sure grub can go into btrfs though .... never tried that.17:32
not_me_again/boot is perfectly fine on btrfs as long as grub2 understands the features in use i.e. 20.10 supports raid1c34 feature but grub2 might be too old to understand it; it might also not like zstd compression - 20.04 definitely didn't like it, iirc17:38
not_me_againbut /boot only contains the later parts of grub(2) - the core bootloader has to be where the BIOS/UEFI can find it which would be MBR or ESP17:39
not_me_againalso /boot isn't a partition - it's just a subfolder of / which itself is a btrfs subvolume named @ as is kubuntu default17:43
not_me_againanyway, I think I'll just keep on booting from the usb stick - it's old and too small for modern live usb images so I didn't really have anywhere else to use it anyway. Thank you for tyring to help17:44
not_me_againBye, bye.17:44
