| iomari891 | greetings, I keep losing my plasma effects and have to relogin to get them back. This becoming more frequent everyday. Today I booted my laptop and no effects were active on the initial boot. This is the 1st time that I noticed that it happend on a fresh boot. I'm usung kubuntu 21.04 and it's latest plasma. | 07:38 |
| valorie | iomari891: please check the permissions in your HOME (usually called by your username) | 07:40 |
| valorie | it sounds as if you have used a sudo command when you shouldn't have, which changed the permission in the ~/.config folder so your choices are not being saved | 07:41 |
| valorie | !permissions | 07:41 |
| ubottu | An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions | 07:41 |
| valorie | it might be chmod you have to run; it's been awhile | 07:42 |
| valorie | !chmod | 07:42 |

| * valorie goes to bed | 07:42 | |
| iomari891 | valorie: sorry, just seeing your post. It's not permissions or ownership. | 08:13 |

| BluesKaj | Hi all | 12:21 |
| magic_ninja | I'm having issues with the compositor. I used to be able to enable/disable without any issues. Now, when disabled, firefox won't start. It crashes. | 13:21 |
| magic_ninja | I also get random crashes. | 13:21 |
| BluesKaj | why disable it? | 13:26 |
| magic_ninja | That isn't really relevant, as it shouldn't be happening. | 13:27 |
| magic_ninja | Sorry, I don't want to go into a long deal about why I'm doing what I'm doing, when I've been doing it for years and now a problem has presented itself. | 13:28 |
| BluesKaj | I haven't bothered disabling the compositor for yrs so i'm not aware of any bugs or problems with disabling it | 13:29 |
| magic_ninja | there haven't been any issues for me ever | 13:30 |
| oerheks | wayland or xorg? | 13:30 |
| magic_ninja | but I've updated and now there is an issue and a bug report can't be filed, or it can't be troubleshot if I have no clue what part of the system is doing it or what logs to check and see what is happening. | 13:31 |
| magic_ninja | oerheks, xorg | 13:31 |
| magic_ninja | but firefox won't start, plasmashell freezes up | 13:33 |
| magic_ninja | I can turn on compositor and it snaps right back | 13:33 |
| magic_ninja | I want to try clearing out my configuration files | 13:33 |
| magic_ninja | I've had a few "black screen" startups here and there. I think it might help | 13:34 |
| BluesKaj | brb | 13:34 |
| magic_ninja | brb | 13:34 |
| magic_ninja | okay, I reset my work space | 13:37 |
| BluesKaj | hmm, disabled the compositor...no issues so far, firefox launches and holds | 13:39 |
| magic_ninja | i just had to reboot because it locked everything up | 13:42 |
| BluesKaj | driver issues maybe ? | 13:42 |
| magic_ninja | tried three drivers | 13:42 |
| magic_ninja | but a driver update did not happen before this issue started | 13:43 |
| BluesKaj | which gpu? | 13:43 |
| magic_ninja | Client: HexChat 2.14.3 • OS: Ubuntu "hirsute" 21.04 • CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4790K CPU @ 4.00GHz (800MHz) • Memory: Physical: 30.6 GiB Total (28.1 GiB Free) Swap: 30.5 GiB Total (30.5 GiB Free) • Storage: 4.2 TB / 6.8 TB (2.6 TB Free) • VGA: NVIDIA Corporation GM204 [GeForce GTX 970] @ Intel Corporation 4th Gen Core Processor DRAM Controller • Uptime: 2m 0s | 13:43 |
| magic_ninja | at this point it might be faster to try a reinstall | 13:43 |

| magic_ninja | the problem is gone now. I ended up having to get a daily build ISO to get past that shim bug and I'm up and running. | 16:04 |

| IrcsomeBot | <Anarchotaoist> How can I start x? I crashed and when I reboot I have this above. It looks like a TTY but does not accept commands. | 17:53 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Anarchotaoist> Ctrl + alt F2 does nothing. | 17:53 |
| IrcsomeBot | <ADHIVP> Use any other device to format usb (re @Anarchotaoist: Ugh! So, I am going to have to re-install my Kubuntu. Now another problem - my other machine is refusing to mount my USB sticks - AGAIN! This happened a week ago and I discovered exfat-utils and exfat-fuse were no longer installed. After installing and reformating the stick it worked. Now Ventoy will not mount! I reformatted it and it will still not mount. I mount it from KDEpartition man | 17:53 |
