| Crell | Hi folks. I've been having an issue with my 21.04 install for a while. When I start up, the audio just... sometimes doesn't boot. It seems mostly random. Right now, after 2 consecutive reboots I get *nothing* for audio output options, despite having 3 audio output devices connected, at least. Any idea what the issue is, or how to find it? | 01:21 |
|---|---|---|
| Crell | Sometimes it's fine, other times it's just... missing stuff. | 01:21 |
| Crell | (This is a particular problem as I'm supposed to give a remote presentation tomorrow. :-) ) | 01:21 |
| Crell | Sometimes unplugging the laptop from its docking station and reconnecting it fixes things, other times not. | 01:22 |
| Crell | ... And apparently this is one of the good times. Still how do I figure out what's going on and stop it? | 01:23 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> You may want to try uninstalling pipewire especially if using any BT device. | 01:35 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> However, I do not know how to re-install/configure pipewire so be warned, you will have to "google" to re-install it. (Kubuntu runs fine without pipewire. I removed pipewire due to inconsistent BT behavior with a Plantronics headset) | 01:37 |

| IrcsomeBot | <DPRanjiida> I installed kde desktop environment with ubuntu(gbome). Is it safe to remove gnome completely? | 04:48 |
| guiverc | @DORanjiida, I believe yes, but I would still read the packages to be removed before it was executed (results may vary on your unstated release; at worst though I'd expect issues would be fixed by a `apt install --reinstall kubuntu-desktop`) but note this is opinion as I've done it, but likely on a different release (and packages are release specific) | 04:51 |

| IrcsomeBot | <michael> Hello, I need help with Jabber and Pidgin - it worked flawlessly on Kubuntu until I installed the otr plugin in the terminal, then I uninstalled pidgin in Discover and reinstalled it with sudo and the otr plugin was already on it. then I tested it on kali and installed pidgin with sudo and then otr and everything went perfectly. only with kubuntu does it tell me that it cannot be connected to the server. So the server is up. And on google I h | 07:28 |

| user|28 | How to create a bootable UEFI flash drive? | 17:07 |
| oerheks | all kubuntu iso are UEFI compatible, just follow the usb guide | 17:18 |
| oerheks | !usb | 17:19 |
| ubottu | For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 17:19 |
| oerheks | and the uefi guide | 17:19 |
| oerheks | !uefi | 17:19 |
| ubottu | UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 17:19 |
| mindentropy | Hi. When I try to run Muon I get "Failed conversation with su". How should I fix this? I am running Ubuntu 21.04 with Kubuntu packages. | 19:02 |
| mindentropy | Hi. When I run Muon package manager I get "Conversation with Su failed" when I go into "Configure software packages". How do I fix this? I am running Ubuntu 21.04 with Kubuntu installed. | 19:05 |
| BluesKaj | mindentropy, how did you install muon ? | 19:06 |
| mindentropy | I installed via Kubuntu and kde packages. | 19:07 |
| mindentropy | kubuntu-desktop and kde-all I think. | 19:07 |
| BluesKaj | with apt or discover, or? | 19:07 |
| mindentropy | apt. | 19:07 |
| BluesKaj | not apt-get I hope, that can lead to problems nowadays | 19:08 |
| mindentropy | No. Just apt. | 19:10 |
| BluesKaj | did you try reinstalling muon? | 19:10 |
| mindentropy | No. I thought I have to setup some kdesurc in .config but that didn't work. | 19:11 |
| BluesKaj | sudo apt install --reinstall muon | 19:13 |
| IrcsomeBot | <شیخ الرییس> what is the muon | 19:14 |
| BluesKaj | it's a gui package manager | 19:15 |
| mindentropy | BluesKaj: I removed the muon package with --purge and installed and it has the same problem. | 19:16 |
| IrcsomeBot | <شیخ الرییس> idk but maybe synaptic could useful for you | 19:16 |
| user|72 | how do we enter the last character in this command: apt-get install lamp-server^ | 19:17 |
| IrcsomeBot | <شیخ الرییس> idk but maybe synaptic could be useful for you | 19:17 |
| IrcsomeBot | <شیخ الرییس> shift+6 (re @IrcsomeBot: <user|72> how do we enter the last character in this command: apt-get install lamp-server^) | 19:17 |
| user|72 | thank you very much. | 19:17 |
| valorie | muon is old tech - Discover is much better | 19:26 |
| valorie | muon was "it* at one time, but that time was quite awhile ago | 19:26 |
| mindentropy | valorie: I want to remove automatic updates completely from kde. I will update it by myself. | 19:27 |
| mindentropy | valorie: I am looking at some option somewhere to disable this. | 19:27 |
| valorie | in system settings, I would assume | 19:27 |
| valorie | I use alt+space `updates` and pick the right one from krunner | 19:28 |
| mindentropy | I have kept update software to manual but it still checks if there are any updates. | 19:28 |
| valorie | of course | 19:29 |
| valorie | security updates will always be flagged for you | 19:29 |
| valorie | but you do them in your own time | 19:29 |
| mindentropy | I don't want it check for updates. I will be doing it manually. | 19:30 |
| mindentropy | Should I remove discover? | 19:30 |
| valorie | I have no clue of the ramifications of that, mindentropy | 19:31 |
| IrcsomeBot | <شیخ الرییس> set check updates to mannually | 19:31 |
| IrcsomeBot | <شیخ الرییس> from kubuntu-driver (re @IrcsomeBot: <mindentropy> I don't want it check for updates. I will be doing it manually.) | 19:31 |
| mindentropy | valorie: Ok. Something to be done with packagekit? | 19:32 |
| valorie | I sometimes use packagekit too, just as a check.... | 19:33 |
| valorie | but again, no clue what would happen if that was removed | 19:33 |
| valorie | you get Kubuntu free, and if you break it you have a free broken system! | 19:34 |
| mindentropy | How is it scheduled to run? In cron or somewhere else? | 19:34 |
| valorie | you can check cron and see..... | 19:35 |
| mindentropy | valorie: Not there in it. :-( | 19:36 |
| IrcsomeBot | <شیخ الرییس> just uncheck the box that says "check for updates every day" (re @IrcsomeBot: <mindentropy> valorie: Not there in it. :-() | 19:38 |
| valorie | I'm failing to understand why an indicator -- very subtle - is a *bother* | 19:39 |
| valorie | it's just information | 19:39 |
| valorie | I don't do auto-updates | 19:39 |
| valorie | sometimes I choose to do them in discover | 19:40 |
| valorie | sometimes with apt | 19:40 |
| valorie | sometimes with pk | 19:40 |
| valorie | just to test how things are doing | 19:40 |
| valorie | but always when I have time, at the time of my own chooseing | 19:40 |
| valorie | choosing | 19:40 |
| mindentropy | valorie: I don't want it to check updates and waste my cpu cycles. I will be doing it by myself. | 19:46 |
| mindentropy | During some downtime. | 19:46 |
| IrcsomeBot | <شیخ الرییس> type kubuntu-drivers in terminal and then go to updates tab, now set your settings as you like (re @IrcsomeBot: <mindentropy> During some downtime.) | 19:47 |
| mindentropy | I think I can disable packagekit systemd service | 19:48 |
