[05:12] <buntuman> hi, was here yesterday, but got no answer. is it the same in kubuntu as in ubuntu in a way, that when 22.04.1 comes out, you get prompted to upgrade 20.04?
[05:16] <tomreyn> buntuman: i would think so, if you're on the LTS track. it's "roughly about the time .1 is released", not exactly the same time, though.
[05:17] <buntuman> Thanks tomreyn. And how realiable are upgrades of Kubuntu vs fresh installs?
[05:17] <tomreyn> i.e. /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades -> Prompt=lts
[05:18] <tomreyn> buntuman: i don't actually use Kubuntu, but Ubuntu, and the foundation is the same. If you prepare well, release upgrades should be fine.
[05:19] <tomreyn> i'd make sure to downgrade / purge packages from PPAs, as well as those which have no upgrade path / active apt repository
[05:19] <tomreyn> apt list --installed | grep ',local\]$'    should list the latter
[05:20] <tomreyn> !ppa-purge
[05:20] <buntuman> thanks
[05:20] <tomreyn> you're welcome
[05:21] <buntuman> yeah, also thinking about straight up ubuntu, the vanilla ubuntu irc and ask ubuntu seems more active. Plus if my software works, i could stay with the same version for 5 years
[05:21] <buntuman> hmmm
[05:25] <tomreyn> buntuman: btw. you were only aroun dhere for 4 minutes after asking your question yesterday. more patience can help to actually get answers (or asking again the other day, as you did).
[05:26] <tomreyn> oh well
[10:55] <Mamarok> "same version for five years" might make perfect sense for a server, but certainly doesn't at all for a desktop, GUI software is developped at such a pace that you will end up with a completely outdated system, and no support for anything GUI beyond 3 years, unless you pay for
[11:20] <Razva> Hey! How can I set Chrome to use the middle click? On Windows I was closing tabs when clicking on them and scrolling up/down when keeping it pressed.
[11:47] <mparillo> For me, on my touchpad three-finger tap emulates middle click and Chromium then opens links in a new tab.
[11:48] <mparillo> I set that in System Settings > Input Devices > Touchpad
[11:49] <mparillo> Assuming you did not uninstall krunner, you can simply make sure your desktop has focus and start typing inp or tou
