| IrcsomeBot | <RikMills> Finally proposed is unblocked, so plasma 5.21.0 and fw 5.79 will be on next iso build 😀 | 00:54 |
|---|---|---|
| IrcsomeBot | <Santa> @RikMills, That's great news | 02:04 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Santa> btw I'm doing the fw thing I didn't have time yet to do | 02:04 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Santa> a bit late but I guess the packages could take a bit to migrate | 02:05 |
| IrcsomeBot | <RikMills> @Santa, all done now, so no worries | 10:22 |
| IrcsomeBot | <RikMills> updated https://community.kde.org/Plasma/Live_Images#Ships_Plasma_5.21 | 10:22 |
| guiverc | not sure if this is anything; neon user asked on askubu (off-topic) about https://packages.ubuntu.com/focal/kup-backup which has a recommends for 'bup', user says it's required.. I've not used software, but is there an issue with a 'recommends' and it doesn't exist (dropped as it was dep python2.7) | 11:07 |
| mparillo | so 2021-02-20 05:43 should have 5.21 and FW 5.79? | 11:37 |
| IrcsomeBot | <RikMills> yes | 11:38 |
| mparillo | TY. zsyncing. I should be able to sanity-check today. | 11:41 |
| mparillo | I noticed that the daily ISO loads a GRUB menu where I can see the OEM option. Much nicer than the old ISO where I had to keep mashing any key and then hit F4 (IIRC). | 12:23 |
| mparillo | The live image is indeed 5.21 / 5.79 | 12:23 |
| mparillo | However, the desktop in my VM appears solid black with no icon on it for Installing Kubuntu (did we default to Kwin-Wayland?). No crisis, as the live session user can type install in the application launcher or in krunner. | 12:26 |
| mparillo | My region came up as Antigua. When I changed it to United States, I could not select my time zone. | 12:28 |
| RikMills | mparillo: in my VM https://i.imgur.com/PwF06wc.png | 12:30 |
| mparillo | So maybe something strange in my Hardware, my Win10 host, or VMware. | 12:32 |
| mparillo | Clicking on the links in the slideshow still does nothing, but otherwise the install seemed successful. Re-booting my VM. | 12:33 |
| mparillo | Everything seems good on re-boot. Discover prompted me to update, which is proceeding. I noticed that we install ksysguard. Did I read somewhere there was a new system monitor? | 12:35 |
| mparillo | Ahh, we get both | 12:35 |
| RikMills | the new one depends on ksysguard, which is annoying | 12:37 |
| mparillo | My vote: Put the new System Monitor in Favorites, leave the old ksysguard only under System in Application Launcher. | 12:38 |
| RikMills | hmmmm | 12:38 |
| mparillo | And they both have the same icon in the Icons-only Task Manager | 12:39 |
| mparillo | Libre Office looks better and better. I wish K^HCalligra kept improving. | 12:41 |
| mparillo | So big thanks to you and Santa. | 12:41 |

| RikMills | mparillo: I guess that is the timezone issue ^^ | 12:42 |
| mparillo | The funny thing, is once installed, it guessed my time (Eastern). | 12:43 |
| RikMills | I think the guessing is ok, but it can't return it to the UI in a form it can read | 12:44 |
| RikMills | mparillo: can you report a bug? if you don't have the time, no worries | 12:46 |
| mparillo | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1916331 | 13:11 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1916331 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "Cannot Select TimeZone at Install Time (Kubuntu)" [Undecided,New] | 13:11 |
| BluesKaj | Howdy folks | 13:19 |
| RikMills | mparillo: thanks! | 13:22 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> 5.21 has been impressive so far on my laptop. Thanks Rik and Santa for keeping Kubuntu alive! | 18:35 |
| IrcsomeBot | * DarinMiller contemplating a do-release-upgrade -d on my main box now that the 5.10 kernel has landed... | 18:38 |
| IrcsomeBot | <RikMills> @DarinMiller https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/WaylandByDefaultForPlasma | 19:47 |
| IrcsomeBot | <RikMills> Which is April release I think | 19:47 |
| IrcsomeBot | <RikMills> Interesting, I am told a fedora dev might be wanting to talk to us about some collaboration, but I don't know what about. Perhaps it might be that as we have the same(ish) release month. | 19:49 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> I had not seen that website, but I have heard rumblings for "non-nvidia" consideration. But looks like Fedora is going hook, line and sinker... | 19:50 |
| IrcsomeBot | <RikMills> (Document) https://irc-attachments.kde.org/m8lLAHl5/file_41797.mp4 | 19:52 |
| IrcsomeBot | <RikMills> Gotta be careful what you catch! | 19:53 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> 😀 | 19:53 |
| IrcsomeBot | <RikMills> We don't have a 'bigger boat' :P | 19:54 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> Desktop upgrade to 21.04 on my desktop was very smooth. And I booted into wayland from my Nvdia desktop with proprietary drivers enabled for the 1st time ever. :) | 21:09 |
| IrcsomeBot | <RikMills> Wayland Nvidia? | 21:51 |
| IrcsomeBot | <RikMills> (Document) https://irc-attachments.kde.org/qCLI14K2/file_41802.mp4 | 21:51 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> Yes, Wayland NVidia..... but no go.. Lots of rough edges still. Wine games do not run-including proton based games. Dual display scaling is still a bit quirky as is adjusting panel sizes in wayland mode. | 21:55 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> Found enough paper cuts in the 1st three minutes to push me back to X. | 21:56 |
| IrcsomeBot | <RikMills> To be expected honestly | 22:02 |
| valorie | I think I'll upgrade my travel lappy soon | 22:12 |
| valorie | no nvidia issues in that one | 22:12 |
| IrcsomeBot | <X> I've managed to survive on wayland for more than a month, using amdgpu free | 22:22 |
