IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> you passed04:10
IrcsomeBot<Frankentein291294> Hello everyone!!!04:54
IrcsomeBot<Anarchotaoist> I have just updated to Hirsute. Upon reboot I have no panel or desktop (wallpaper and right click)!! What can I do? nb Latte dock works and I can access apps. No shut down or reboot buttons either!05:23
IrcsomeBot<Anarchotaoist> Now Latte dock is invisible also. 😣05:24
valorie@Anarchotaoist that does not sound good!05:28
valorieusually problems like that I have to solve in the konsole05:28
valorieusually sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade05:28
valorieand sometimes sudo apt autoremove && sudo apt remove if you haven't done that for awhile05:29
valoriealso sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade --fix-missing can be useful sometimes05:31
valorievery occasionally sudo dpkg --configure -a05:32
valorieeven more rarely: sudo apt install -f05:32
valorie@Anarchotaoist does krunner still work? alt+space05:34
valorieit sounds like plasma and/or plasmashell crashed and took some other bits down as well05:34
IrcsomeBot<abhishekbatra> Just installed and ran KMail, added a gsuite account, it seems to be able to fetch email just fine, but doesn't show anything in the contents, no email folders or emails05:44
IrcsomeBot<abhishekbatra> can paste a screenshot here if it helps05:45
IrcsomeBot<Anarchotaoist> @valorie, I tried all those commands and no joy. Yes, Krunner works.05:50

IrcsomeBot<abhishekbatra> @abhishekbatra, Adding to this, I'm also getting new mail notifications, just not seeing any content in the KMail window06:06
TheBigKIrcsomeBot: check running kmail in shell to see if u see some errors popping up... alternatively check .xsession-errors ...06:08
lordievaderGood morning06:11
IrcsomeBot<Anarchotaoist> When I run the command kstart5 plasmashell …  Plasma shell starts then crashes https://pastebin.com/txX8f5qY06:13
IrcsomeBot<abhishekbatra> @TheBigK, no logs in the shell, .xsession-errors has several of these: https://pastebin.com/TnVk7zya06:21
IrcsomeBot<abhishekbatra> Another one is: "Fontconfig error: Cannot load default config file: No such file: (null)"06:22
TheBigKIrcsomeBot: in which way does the plasmashell crash.. as i can see u abort the start? or am i crazy06:47
IrcsomeBot<Anarchotaoist> Changing the compositor to opengl 2 brought back Lattedock to being visible - but still no desktop. Is there a command I can run to find out more why this is happening?10:48

IrcsomeBot<N> Hello, been a long time. If there's any experienced user of Kubuntu, can you please tell me is there any improvement in Kubuntu new update? Last time ( 3 months back), I installed it, it was totally unusable because of my old hardware. It lagged like hell, froze and I could not do anything properly.14:26
IrcsomeBot<N> But I want to know has devs made it better for old hardwares? My PC specs :14:27
Maik@N i don't see any PC specs here on IRC, mind sharing it ?14:28
IrcsomeBot<N> @Maik, I've edited the post. Please check.14:30
Maik@N i don't see it since i'm on IRC and not Telegram14:30
Maikjust tell your system specs14:30
lordievader@N your system is still healthy? Lagging like hell sounds like either too little RAM or a disk full of bad sectors.14:31
IrcsomeBot<N> Last time, a user helped me out to somewhat make it usable by disabling some things xrender and compositor settings but there was too much lag specially in login screen14:31
IrcsomeBot<N> @Maik, My PC specs : … OptiPlex 360, CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E7500, GPU: Intel 82G33/G31 Express, 4GB DDR2 RAM and openGL 1.414:31
Maikold machine?14:32
MaikCore 2 Duo and 4GB of RAM should be enough to run Kubuntu14:32
IrcsomeBot<N> @lordievader, No, it works awesome on Linux Mint Cinnamon, Mate, Ubuntu. It lags like hell on KDE based distros because KDE requires new opengl version according to some user here14:32
Maikif not, try Xubuntu or Ubuntu MATE14:32
IrcsomeBot<N> @Maik, But it doesn't.14:33
Maikthen don't expect the new versio to run smooth14:33
IrcsomeBot<N> @Maik, I've already tried those also. Including OpenSuse and Manjaro. Same issue in all of them14:33
IrcsomeBot<N> @Maik, Can devs fix this issue?14:33
Maiknope, guess not14:33
IrcsomeBot<N> @Maik, Oh, that's too bad. Seems I'll have to stay on Mint then14:34
Maik@N you said Linux Mint Cinnamon, Mate, Ubuntu work awesome. So Xubuntu and Ubuntu Mate should run fine too14:34
Maik@N your choice14:35
IrcsomeBot<N> @Maik, Sorry, I may not remember. If those are KDE based distros, I must have tried them. I remember I faced same lag in all of KDE distros14:35
Maik@N Xubuntu = ubuntu with Xfce, Ubuntu MATE = Ubuntu with MATE desktop14:38
Maikno KDE14:38
lordievaderThe name is a hint to what desktop env they run ;)14:38
lordievaderThe K in Kubuntu stands for KDE, sort of.14:38
IrcsomeBot<N> Ah got it. It means I've not tried them. I'd have really loved to get KDE working on my system.14:39
IrcsomeBot<N> I miss KDE connect. It doesn't work as good on Mint XFCE14:40
Maik@N if you tried Mint Mate you know what to expect of Ubuntu MATE14:40
lordievaderTurning all the effects of in kwin might help...14:41
lordievaderNot sure as to what degree though.14:41
IrcsomeBot<N> @Maik, Yeah but I'm not interested in Ubuntu Mate.  I'm really happy with Mint as it's rock solid on my PC. Just wanted to try some KDE based distro.14:44
IrcsomeBot<N> @lordievader, I just read in new Kubuntu, KDE Plasma 5.21 and other major changes are there. Maybe they may have fixed my lag issue as well. I'll try it on USB after 30 minutes *excited*14:45
IrcsomeBot<ri5h46h> @N, the newer ones may lag more on your system.14:46
lordievaderEspecially on a thumbdrive... you may be lucky to get a few MB per second of IO through those things.14:46
IrcsomeBot<N> @ri5h46h, lol you're here too14:47
* lordievader is biased in disliking thumb drives14:47
IrcsomeBot<N> @IrcsomeBot, Then how do I make sure it's running fine without installing on my PC as there's too much data on my pc and I don't have anything right now to back up14:48
IrcsomeBot<ri5h46h> @N, kubuntu is the primary operating system on my desktop.14:48
lordievaderYou could go mess about trying to get them installed side-by-side, but without a backup I wouldn't start on that.14:50
IrcsomeBot<N> @ri5h46h, Oh now I remember14:52
IrcsomeBot<N> @lordievader, Yeah. I'll still give a try to live USB method14:53

viewer|59hi, are there alternatives to pulseeffects, maybe specific in the kde world? the specific noisegate plugin implementation doesn't work as I want it and just wanna use a different one but google is not helping much in showing alternatives?20:56
viewer|59is there even anything remotely similar to pulseeffects?21:15
IrcsomeBot<Vinicius Reis> Hello everyone, everything good? Do you have a tutorial on SSSD - Realm on Kubuntu? I am using the cannonical one but the authentication is not working21:22
