drgutmanIs it ok to ask for help with WINE? I'm trying to install an app and it keeps giving me an error03:29
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Which  app refuses to install with wine?03:43
drgutmanPichon .. also known as Icons803:46
viewer|9If I upgrade Kubuntu 20.10 and Plasma 19 will I loose all my desktop settings?03:48
drgutmanThe setup runs at first and then it gives a funny error "Download failed: Success Check your connection and click Retry to try downloading files again" and if I click the details it says NetFrameworkInstaller.exe Cannot connect. I already used WineTricks to install the NetFramework03:49
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Upgrading from 20.04?  If everything goes well, you will not lose your settings .03:50
viewer|9I followed the instructions pkexec do-release-upgrade -m desktop -f DistUpgradeViewKDE03:50
viewer|9It shows upgrading from 20.04 LTS to 20.04. Is that just a bug?03:50
viewer|9Uploaded file: https://uploads.kiwiirc.com/files/e8a48279537840a04928f41e15549cfd/image.png03:52
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> hmmm, yes that sounds like a bug03:52
viewer|9Thats the upgrade message03:52
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> wait.03:52
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> run this: sudo software-properties-qt03:53
viewer|9done03:53
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Go to the updates tab and check the Release upgrade section.03:53
viewer|9Set to Normal03:53
viewer|9I followed instructions here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GroovyUpgrades/Kubuntu03:54
viewer|9So thats why I am concerned if this thing is doing something else03:54
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Ok, then the upgrade should work.  I upgraded before 20.10 was final, so I did not notice that message.03:55
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> The website was written by the person who maintains the Kubuntu packages so I trust those commands.03:56
viewer|9Ok thanks. Seperate question anyone having Suspend and black screen when awake? I have an an nvidia card and when I suspend (put lid down) and then open lid, the screen just stays black (power on of course)03:57
viewer|9I am trying to find a solution and lots of people seem to have this. Maybe the upgrade will fix?03:57
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> @drgutman, I could not find Pichon in the wine.org apps database and I am not familiar with that package so I cannot advise how work around the install failure.03:58
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> @viewer|9, What problem do you have?03:58
drgutmanohh, ok. I guess I'll have tot find another way. thanks03:59
viewer|9I have nvidia enabled on my laptop. When I put the lid down it turns off as it should. But when I put lid up the laptop turns on but never show lock screen. It just stays blank03:59
viewer|9Works fine when I enable the intel card04:00
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Nvidia drivers installed?04:00
viewer|9Yes nvidia-driver-45504:00
viewer|9thats what it recommend04:00
viewer|9Uploaded file: https://uploads.kiwiirc.com/files/ec897ded9fb8969b84230adcdc722f97/pasted.txt04:01
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Driver installed from the nvidia ppa (455.45.01 ?)04:01
viewer|9yes exactly04:01
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> The 870M is an older card so I am skeptical updating to 20.10 would fix the problem.  Newer hw is often "fixed" by  upgrading the kernel and xorg stack, but in this case I highly doubt it.04:03
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> When the laptop awakens, do you have a mouse cursor?04:04
viewer|9nope04:04
viewer|9just a tiny white dot top left corner04:04
IrcsomeBot<ri5h46h> @drgutman, is there any bug in upgrading to Kubuntu 20.10 from 20.04 ?04:04
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Can you reisub?04:04
drgutmanone more question, I'm trying to use Q4Wine for the setup but I can't seem to find Win10 in the fake driver version. Am I missing something?04:05
viewer|9and then i have to do hard restart04:05
IrcsomeBot<ri5h46h> one of my friend is considering to upgrade to 20.10 ...04:05
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> I would recommend upgrading to 20.10.  Most of the issues that I initially experience with 20.10 have been fixed.04:05
IrcsomeBot<ri5h46h> @DarinMiller, @DarinMiller can you suggest the commands/steps involved to upgrade to Kubuntu 20.1004:06
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> I typically use sudo do-release-upgrade -m desktop04:07
IrcsomeBot<ri5h46h> can we upgrade using GUI04:07
viewer|9Follow this document https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GroovyUpgrades/Kubuntu04:07
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> If Discover offer an upgrade option, you can use it or just follow the commands in the link posted by <viewer|9>04:09
IrcsomeBot<ri5h46h> @viewer|9, ok, this is helpful :)04:11
IrcsomeBot<ri5h46h> @DarinMiller, @DarinMiller are you a Kubuntu developer ?04:11
=== steve__ is now known as GSMarquis77
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Not yet :).  I mostly assist with package and/or PPA testing.04:12
IrcsomeBot<ri5h46h> @DarinMiller, 👍04:12
viewer|9gonna try update wish me luck. night04:18
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> gn and let us know if we can help.04:18
IrcsomeBot<ri5h46h> @DarinMiller, good Morning from India !04:19

IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Good Morning :)04:20
drgutmanok, different type of question (the wine thing is getting me nowhere) is there a way to decrease the size of the screen edge that triggers the switch desktop? I like that I can switch it using the mouse but it triggers when I try to go to the corner of the screen. i need it to trigger closer to the middle04:25
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> If your mouse is over the desktop area, you can configure the mouse wheel to switch desktops (or meta+ mouse scroll).04:28
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> keyboard shortcuts can also be used (I think ctrl+meta+<arrow key> is default)04:30
drgutmanyeah, but switching by going to the edge comes naturally04:30
drgutmanI already have the keyboard shortcut configured04:32
drgutmanthe idea is to make the size of the trigger zone a tad smaller. I don't need it to be the same as the screen resolution. if you use the screen edge highlight desktop effect it shows a smaller zone than it actually is04:35
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> You can also change middle mouse (or right mouse click to change desktop)  but you have to click on an open spot on the desktop.04:36
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> I cannot think of any other way to change desktop with the mouse near the middle of the screen.04:38
drgutmanyes, thank you, i know there are may other shortcuts but they all require clicking on something. when I say middle of the screen I still mean on the edge, not in the center of the screen. just to make the edge smaller, to have some space where it doesn't get triggered04:39
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Oh, System settings, Screen Edges, select the dot for action and select Desktop grid04:42
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> errr. System settings - workplace behavior -> Screen edges04:43
drgutmanwell, we're getting somewhere :)) in the same window, in screen edges, i have set switch desktop on edge, always enabled. I love that option. the idea is that the edge covers the whole edge of the screen, and when i try to go to a corner with the mouse it triggers the desktop change. i want to make the edge smaller so it doesn't trigger in the corners04:44
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Ah, I understand now. but have no idea how to shorten the activation area to enable corner actions.04:49
drgutmanyes, it's quite a weird question I guess ... I've searched for it on google but I guess nobody had this issue. I'll probably have to see where the files of the Screen Edge Switcher script are located and modify it there.04:50
IrcsomeBot<Andi_ckr> (Photo, 591x1280) https://irc-attachments.kde.org/TMjxxTAH/file_39721.jpg04:51
drgutmanok, another weird question (I've just swtiched to kbuntu last week after about 25 years of Win) Is there a way to make the right mouse button have the same behaviour as the left one when doing a drag and drop? right now I can't do drag and drop using the right mouse button05:00
Matt5325Hey, is there a support section?05:34

Guest18292Kubuntu 20.04 - i am trying to change the default locations of the "Pictures" folder in System settings>Applications>Locations  -- i set a path on different drive... its not working -- what am i missing07:10
RazathornDoes it just not save?  Does it not work in another program?  What does not working mean?07:15
Guest18292ok - when i open dolphin and go to home pictures its the old folder (has 4 pix) it should have nothing in it07:19
Guest18292if its pointing to the new drive07:19
Guest18292this is what i am using as the path: /mnt/wwn-0x5000cca095c6405e-part1/Pictures07:20
Guest18292that is on a different drive, and i have made a folder named Pictures there....07:21
Guest18292ah... um... i went to internet (FireFox) found a flower picture and saved it -- it did save to correct location... on new drive...07:27
Guest18292but home>Pictures has old 4 pix in it... i thought IF i use dolphon and go to home>user>Pictures it would be new place in new different drive07:29
Guest18292do u have to use a symlink ?? (i was reading about those but dont understand ) newbie to Kubuntu07:30
RazathornNah, you're just saving where programs look, the original location is still there.07:30
Razathornthink of it like configuring all programs to look in a new location07:30
Razathornthe pictures folder is still right there in your home directory if you browse to it.07:31
Guest18292yeah, your right, can i make it point to new place ?07:31
RazathornYou could, but you would simply leave the setting pointed to your Pictures folder in your home directory and then replace the Pictures folder with a symlink to the right location.07:32
RazathornI'm not sure the icon will remain the same though, not sure if you're concerned about that.07:32
Guest18292yeah, thats what i want... can u tell me how to put a symlink in Pictures folder ??07:33
Guest18292dont care about icon07:33
Guest18292I GOT IT working !! i read you hold Ctrl&Shift and drag the folder (or file) to new place07:49

juano-Mkdeconnect in Kubuntu is not detecting anything in the network? Anyone else?  ufw is disabled16:14
juano-Mkdeconnect is working between phones, but not in Kubuntu 20.04 updated16:14
IrcsomeBot<MEHED10> hello , my cernel is 5.04 , how to update or upgrade 5.20 ?16:37
InspectorCluseauI just used kdeconnect a few minutes ago and my setup is up to date.16:39
nmrhhi, is this a good channel to ask about dolphine/sftp/kwallet issues on kubuntu?16:49
juano-Mkdeconnect was working, but at some point it stopped working.16:49
nmrhi have sftp working for several servers, it works for most of these via dolphin's url (and kdewallet is involved as the publick keys have passwords)16:51
nmrhhowever for one server (using a public key or not) when using dolphin's url it will only work once *before* I enter a password for kwallet16:52
nmrhfor this sftp server, sftp from command line works fine using a public key (password or no password on the public key)16:53
nmrhssh-add -l shows all ssh servers keys...16:54
rnfnjRunning Kubuntu 18 with KDE Plasma desktop.  I've installed OpenOffice.  After installation when I try to run a module, get error message from Plasma that the file cannot be made executable.  This only happens on my Kubuntu install.  I can install and run normally on Mint and Windows 10.  Any suggestions?16:58

ramjrI've a problem with my ASUS TUF GAMING laptop.  Shutdown hung and I forced power off.  Now it comes up to a GRUB screen with only Ubuntu options, used to have Windows and UEFI.  And Ubuntu panics, no initrd.  No "hot keys" at BIOS level to get into the UEFI BIOS.  Any ideas on how to get this to UEFI so I can choose an external boot device?19:28
RazathornDoes it do it repeatedly?  It's probably just printing it out before the monitor can display it.19:31
ramjrYes, repeated boots come to the same GRUB screen.  Tried 3 or 4 times.19:40
ramjrNote, I got lucky, while at the UEFI splash screen I hit the right function key to get to the UEFI tools.  I think I can go from here on my own.  Thanks.19:42
