TomTomGood morning. Any idea when the "switch user" option comes back to our kmenu? https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=423526  Other distributions are also affected and provide only downgrades as workarounds...08:42
ubottuKDE bug 423526 in Application Launcher (Kickoff) ""Switch user" functionality has disappeared from Kicker and Kickoff" [Normal,Resolved: fixed]08:42
TomTomAm talking of 20.10. Locally i have plasma-workspace 19.5 installed, the ticket says it has been fixed for 5.20.3. So will this be available for the standard 20.10 distribution?08:46
RikMillsLooks like that will have to wait for 21.04 I'm afraid08:50

user|58449Hi. I have issues to use bluetooth on my computer.14:36
IrcsomeBot<ri5h46h> @RikMills, are all these problems related to Kubuntu 21.04 ?14:40
IrcsomeBot<ri5h46h> @TomTom, yes, I also don't have switch user option in applications menu, whereas I have switch user option in KDE Neon14:41
user|17972hello!14:43
TomTomquite a major flaw for systems in families where more than one user is using the system... in four months this feature of 1990 will return ;)15:07

IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> @ri5h46h, Not sure about Neon stable, but in Neon Testing, Switch User crashes to the terminal or locks up entirely.  So it seems the switch user option needs a little attention (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=428479)18:35

drgutmanso, I'm having a problem with the soundcard and I can't think of anything else to try, could someone please help me write a script to run after each boot to switch the audio controller to another source and back (because that seems the only way to make it work)??19:46
diogenes_drgutman, how you doing it manually?19:50
drgutmanI'm opening the audio settings gui > advanced > switch the Built In Audio Profile to something else, and switch it back to the "Analog Surround 2.1 Output + Analog Stero Input" \19:52
drgutmanI'm a 20 year plus win user that switched to kubuntu a couple of weeks ago. a friend tried to help me fix it but nothing worked.19:53
lethudrgutman, you might want to try "pavucontrol"20:00
lethudrgutman, it's the name of the Pulse Audio Volume Control20:00
diogenes_GrahamPerrin-M, try in terminal:20:01
lethudrgutman, fixed some of my issues in the past with audio, where regular system settings didn't work20:01
diogenes_pactl set-card-profile 0 output:analog-stereo+input:analog-stereo20:01
diogenes_then20:01
diogenes_pactl set-card-profile 0 output:hdmi-surround+input:analog-stereo20:02
diogenes_or whatever the exact profile name that works for you is.20:02
diogenes_to find it exact name, run: pacmd list-cards20:02
diogenes_also you get the card index from there too20:03
diogenes_and if it works in terminal then we could do a startup script from it.20:03
drgutman@lethu - i've installed it already, it doesn't help, wether I do it from there or from the default volume control, same result20:03
drgutmanwhen I boot the proper output is selected, i have to select something else and reselect the first one20:04
diogenes_that's what i suggested.20:04
diogenes_or you can simply do: pulseaudio -k20:04
lethudrgutman, too bad that's all I can think of that could have helped with your issue20:04
diogenes_after reboot20:05
diogenes_pulseaudio -k might work right away because it reloads the puleaudio server.20:05
drgutman@diogenes_ umm, I'm not sure, you told me to do that or to GrahamPerrin-M?20:07
diogenes_drgutman, sorry it was addressed to you :)20:09
drgutman:) ohh, thanks, so with pactl i can find the different profiles and then change the card profile from terminal (and thus from a script) I'll have to look up how to write the startup script (i'm sure i'll find a tutorial in no time on google) ... and I just saw that you actually gave me the exact commands that change between the two. thank you :)20:13
drgutmanI'll give it a try on next reboot :)20:14
diogenes_ok come with a feedback.20:14
shepherd_hey got a problem with a thermal printer i have installed with cups. everytime I print, dmesg reports it as disconnected, then about 6 seconds later it comes back. Anyone seen or dealt with this before? thanks20:40
Solifuguscan someone recommend a wifi adaptor for an x86 desktop computer?  The first one I bought turned out to have Windows and Mac support only; and second one I bought says it support "Linux" but turned out to be only Fedora.22:24
Solifugusvery aggrivating22:24
Solifuguscannot get past make on it..22:25
Solifugusfor some strange reason, tne make file wanted lex and bison... but even after that, errors..22:25
Solifugusmake[2]: *** No rule to make target 'arch/x86/tools/relocs_32.c', needed by 'arch/x86/tools/relocs_32.o'.  Stop.22:26
oerheksdid you install build-essential as a start?22:27
oerheks!info build-essentials22:27
ubottuPackage build-essentials does not exist in groovy22:27
oerheks!info build-essential22:27
ubottubuild-essential (source: build-essential): Informational list of build-essential packages. In component main, is optional. Version 12.8ubuntu3 (groovy), package size 4 kB, installed size 21 kB22:27
oerheksunlikely a driver is for fedora only..22:27
SolifugusYes... I have build-essentials22:29
Solifugusinstructions are only for Fedora.....22:29
SolifugusI am sure a binary module would work.. wish they just provided that22:30
SolifugusI download the driver from here: http://www.pandawireless.com/Drivers%20%7C%20Panda%20Wireless.html22:31
oerheksrt2870 driver?22:34
Solifugusmaybe... let me see if I can find a reference to that.22:37
SolifugusI noted a difference in lsmod with it plugged into usb port and without...22:37

Solifugus---22:37
Solifugus> sch_fq_codel           20480  322:37
SolifugusThe Makefile does have this line in it: cp -f /tftpboot/rt2870ap.o /backup/ifx/build/root_filesystem/lib/modules/2.4.31-Amazon_SE-3.6.2.2-R0416_Ralink/kernel/drivers/net22:39
SolifugusSo that must be right... maybe need to search for a drive rthat supports that.22:39
Solifugusbut.. wondering what the difference in the lsmod results w/ and w/o the wifi adapter plugged in means22:39
oerheksno, try the backportwed iwlwifi ppa https://launchpad.net/~canonical-hwe-team/+archive/ubuntu/backport-iwlwifi22:40
oerheksthat dkms builds the driver against your kernel/and new kernel update22:41
Solifugusok... I have to go for a bit but will come back to this.... thanks... i now have some thigns to go on22:41
