[05:21] <user|59lchavez79> obviosly should be in English but for some reason is displaying this in spanish
[06:26] <lordievader> Good morning
 Hey Hello there
 I am having some issues with my Kubuntu Desktop
 My desktop has loaded but I am not able to connect to a network
[06:59] <alkisg> Are you using a wired connection or a wireless one? Was it working before? What happened that broke it?
 I am using a Wireless Connection. Realtek Wireless Lan Driver. Previous it was working completely fine but after an update of "linux-header", it broke.
[07:01] <alkisg> Insert the adapter, type `lsusb`, check the device id, and paste it here
 Ok
 Just a minute
[07:02] <diogenes_> maybe he cat load the previous kernel.
[07:02] <diogenes_> can*
[07:03] <alkisg> Sure; he probably needs to recompile the module for the latest kernel
 When I am writing lsusb it is not showing anything
[07:03] <alkisg> What adapter model is it?
 Realtek rtl8188ftv wireless lan 802.11 n
 I was using this driver
 https://github.com/kelebek333/rtl8188fu
 /about@join_captcha_bot
[07:08] <alkisg> What is the output of this command? dkms status
 rtl8188fu, 4.3.23.6~ppa, 5.11.0-25-generic, x86_64: installed
 rtl8188fu, 4.3.23.6~ppa, 5.8.0-53-generic, x86_64: installed
 rtl8188fu, 4.3.23.6~ppa, 5.8.0-59-generic, x86_64: installed
 rtl8188fu, 4.3.23.6~ppa, 5.8.0-63-generic, x86_64: installed
[07:12] <lordievader>  Cyber, did you compile your own driver?
[07:12] <lordievader> !paste
 No, I didn't compile it, I just installed the ppa
[07:13] <lordievader> Did you rerun those steps after the kernel upgrade?
 Ahh... No...
 I mean, sudo apt update and sudo apt upgrade will do it right?
[07:14] <lordievader> Don't think so. Apt doesn't know about external things you might have installed.
 No no I had added the ppa
 And when I ran sudo apt update
 It shows the package by the developer kelebek333
 *showed
[07:15] <lordievader> Ah, right. What does `lsmod |grep rtl` show?
 It shows
 rtl8188fu    1265664   0
 cfg80211    888832     1  rtl8188fu
[07:19] <lordievader> Could you pastebin console output, makes it more readable 😉 What is the output of `sudo iw dev`?
 I want to do it but I can't do it because there is no way to copy the terminal of my computer to my phone as both usb internet and file transfer is not working.
 And it doesn't work. It just shows nothing
[07:23] <lordievader> No ethernet backup connection available? bummer. Interesting that the module is loaded but not device shows up. Does `sudo dmesg|grep rtl8188` return anything?
 No, it shows nothing
 And actually for backup internet, I can use the internet from my phone on my pc but currently that is also not working
[07:26] <lordievader> Does `sudo modprobe -vr rtl8188fu && sudo modprobe -v rtl8188fu` show anything?
 No 🥲
[07:31] <alkisg> Cyber, you can select the previous 5.8 kernel in grub; wifi should still work there
[07:31] <alkisg> I believe your driver doesn't yet work with 5.11
 When was 5.11 released?
[07:32] <alkisg> You'd need to find another package that works, or wait until the ppa is updated with a newer driver version
 If I could connect to the internet at the first place
[07:32] <alkisg> Recently, I'm on 5.4 so I don't know exactly when
 Hey listen
[07:32] <lordievader> Cyber: Also nothing in `sudo iw dev` after reloading the module?
[07:33] <alkisg> But people with 5.8 went to 5.11 recently
 Hmm
 Just one update
 *upgrade
[07:33] <alkisg> Reboot, select "advanced ubuntu options" in grub, then select 5.8
[07:33] <alkisg> Then you'll have wifi to be able to paste things and have iw working
 It showed something like "linux-headers" I did it and boom computer doesn't work now...
[07:33] <alkisg> That's why old kernels are kept; to be able to work around through such regresions
 Hmm
 Will it delete my files?
[07:34] <alkisg> No, it doesn't install or uninstall anything
[07:34] <alkisg> It's just a reboot, select grub menu, press enter
 Oh ok good
[07:34] <alkisg> You don't need to type any commands
 But how do I enter grub?
[07:35] <alkisg> Don't you see the grub menu when your pc boots? If not, hold down left shift while it boots
 Ok
 Trying doing it...
[07:35] <alkisg> There are screenshots in the 3rd answer there: https://askubuntu.com/questions/82140/how-can-i-boot-with-an-older-kernel-version
[07:36] <alkisg> Don't follow the 1st answer; see the screenshots in the 3rd answer
 Hey listen
 Grub loaded
[07:37] <lordievader> What I find odd is that `lsmod` shows the module being loaded, while `dmesg` doesn't say anything about it.
 Hey listen
 I am at advanced ubuntu options
 I see many kernel
 I guess I should select 5.8.0-63 right?
[07:39] <alkisg> Select the most recent 5.8 one
 Ok
 63 is the most latest
 Ok so what is it's number?
[07:40] <alkisg> I don't know, I have 5.4. Go ahead and boot it
[07:40] <alkisg> Booting older kernels is not a risk
[07:40] <alkisg> Don't be afraid to press enter there...
 Ok
 I pressed it
 Things are happening
 Wait is it real...
 GUYS IT IS WORKING!!! 😍😍😍
 Oh wow
 I didn't expected this would work in the first try
[07:44] <Mekaneck> alkisg: i do not agree, booting older kernels can be a risk because they could contain security vulnerabilities
[07:45] <alkisg> Mekaneck: he was working on that kernel until yesterday or whenever 5.11 came. This is a new user we're talking about, don't scare him with such details...
[07:45] <lordievader> Mekaneck: Same argument applies to booting newer kernels...
[07:45] <alkisg> Mekaneck: it's not an arbitrary old kernel. It's the previous ubuntu kernel, which is maintained and supported by the ubuntu security team
[07:46] <Mekaneck> sure, right
[07:46] <alkisg> Cyber, now you need to continue troubleshooting etc and make the driver work with 5.11. Unfortunately I don't have time to help there, maybe Olivier or someone else can.
 Ok
 I am making it concrete
 So that everytime 5.8 boots up ok?
[07:47] <lordievader> I'd compile the driver manually against 5.11 and see if you run into errors.
[07:47] <lordievader> What is most surprising to me is that the module is completely silent when loading and unloading.
 🤔 I don't understand but I think you have knowledge so go ahead
 And thanks very much to all of you
[07:48]  * alkisg has bumped into the same issue with his rpi; the previous 5.10.17 kernel was working, while the new 5.10.52 broke things, and now I'm reverting to the old one...
 Btw how can we save grub files?
 Nano edit files
 I have edited my grub default to always load 5.8 kernel
 Now how can I save it?
 Ctrl + S isn't working
 Oh I did it
 Never mind
 Hey, when I reboot it is showing something memtest86
 It is normal right?
[07:59] <lordievader> As a grub option or is it booting into memtest?
 No it is booting
 From memtest86
 Blue Screen
 Bad Design...
 Things happening that I can't understand
[08:01] <lordievader> It is testing your memory, as the name suggests. Probably not what you intended. You'd need to reboot and select a Ubuntu/Kubuntu entry.
 Oh okok
 It is saying press F1 to fail safe mode
[08:03] <lordievader> Erm? In response to what?
 That memtest
 Listen I turned off my computer, turned on again, pressed shift, selected ubuntu
 Yes
 It worked completely fine
 Thanks all
 Have a wonderful day
 Is Kubuntu good for battery life?
[10:38] <lordievader> Compared to?
[10:39] <lordievader> If you are willing to really dive into these matters you can get your consumption down to relatively low values.
[12:28] <Guest52> Hi,I have a question about zoom. When I was on windows there was an option where you pressed space and the mic turned on,but in kubuntu it does not seem to work.Any way to do that in kubuntu
[12:56] <BluesKaj> Hi all
 Hi
[13:58] <lordievader> 👋
[14:24] <Yoan> cc
 Antone that knows an app "to do list" that works on kubuntu, Android and ipados?
[17:16] <memphisto> hi, how do i transfer mp3 to iphone
