[07:00] <lordievader> Good morning
 I can't get hindi language. In input method
 I set up ibus and want to write hindi through it. But it's not working.
 Haven't kubuntu hindi?
 I can't find.
 Ibus is working but not in libre office. And also in text editors.
 😭
[11:07] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[11:50] <neo> Has anyone in here ever used KitHack?
[11:52] <BluesKaj> neo, dunno, it's not in the repos
[11:52] <neo> any python experts here?
[11:52] <neo> KitHack is on github
[11:53] <BluesKaj> uhmm, try the #python chat
[11:53] <neo> Thanks
 When i opened ibus and searched dor font its was working and i was able to type in hindi.
 But on other places it is not working (re @DPRanjiida: Ibus is working but not in libre office. And also in text editors.)
 Guys I experienced a very strange issue today
[14:09] <Guest87> Hi everyone I am using Kubuntu 21.10 develop edition When will these kde apps be updated to 21.08.0?thanks
 I was transfer songs from my PC (kubuntu) to phone , 173 mp3s in total , it always used to stop in between , no failure but stuck , I really couldn't transfer anything completely
 I was transferring songs from my PC (kubuntu) to phone , 173 mp3s in total , it always used to stop in between , no failure but stuck , I really couldn't transfer anything completely
[14:11] <BluesKaj> Guest87, best to ask in #kubuntu-devel or #kde chats
[14:13] <BluesKaj> @blinkengine, which method are you using to transfer ?
 cable (re @IrcsomeBot: <BluesKaj> @blinkengine, which method are you using to transfer ?)
 And KDE connect is retard , I couldn't find a way to send the whole folder
[14:16] <BluesKaj> USB cable?
 I think this is dependent upon RAM as well (re @blinkengine: I was transferring songs from my PC (kubuntu) to phone , 173 mp3s in total , it always used to stop in between , no failure but stuck , I really couldn't transfer anything completely)
 Sometimes it stucks or get failed but in other attempt it's fine. (re @Tshering1980: I think this is dependent upon RAM as well)
 I have dual boot win 11 and kubuntu. After switching from windows to kubuntu i can't create a folder in any of my disk partition expect os.
 Help!
 Ibus not working in office and other apps. (re @DPRanjiida: When i opened ibus and searched dor font its was working and i was able to type in hindi.
 But on other places it is not working)
 you should say like that (re @blinkengine: And KDE connect is retard , I couldn't find a way to send the whole folder)
 Are you experiencing the same? (re @DPRanjiida: Sometimes it stucks or get failed but in other attempt it's fine.)
 Yep USB cable ( C-type) (re @IrcsomeBot: <BluesKaj> USB cable?)
 Sometimes (re @blinkengine: Are you experiencing the same?)
 Micro usb too (re @blinkengine: Yep USB cable ( C-type))
 Why is it happening :(( (re @DPRanjiida: Sometimes)
 Donno about it 😑 (re @blinkengine: Why is it happening :(()
 I would say its neither a cable issue nor phone , something's wrong with the distro itself
 In Ubuntu also it was happening.😳 (re @blinkengine: I would say its neither a cable issue nor phone , something's wrong with the distro itself)
 Because previously I was on regular Ubuntu , never faced this issue , used to transfer 10-12gb files
 I can easily transfer files from my phone with a usb c port to my kubuntu machine
 Strange , I'll into it tomorrow , It kinda wasted my time today (re @ri5h46h: I can easily transfer files from my phone with a usb c port to my kubuntu machine)
 I'll theft someday.😔 (re @ri5h46h: I can easily transfer files from my phone with a usb c port to my kubuntu machine)
 I switched to kubuntu because I liked its UI
 ❓ (re @DPRanjiida: I'll theft someday.😔)
 desktop environment* (re @blinkengine: I switched to kubuntu because I liked its UI)
 desktop environment* ( KDE Plasma) k (re @blinkengine: I switched to kubuntu because I liked its UI)
 Not everytime but sometimes it happens.
 desktop environment* ( KDE Plasma ) (re @blinkengine: I switched to kubuntu because I liked its UI)
 Well yes (re @ri5h46h: desktop environment* ( KDE Plasma ))
 Your devices 😡 (re @ri5h46h: ❓)
 I hope every linux issue has a workaround 😌
 Maybe it's ram issue as Wangdi said.😕
 Mine is 4gb only.
 Happens with ubuntu and kubuntu both...
 Mine is 4GB as well , dualboot (re @DPRanjiida: Maybe it's ram issue as Wangdi said.😕
 Mine is 4gb only.
 Happens with ubuntu and kubuntu both...)
 Ohh 😯
 Has the clipboard contents in Kubuntu been deleted ?
 If not try deleting clipboard contents and redo it but this time, total size of data to be less than RAM size during each transfer
 How much RAM does Kinfocentre show ?
 Also clear clipboard contents after transfer is completed - after each transfer
 Okay I'll try this (re @Tshering1980: Also clear clipboard contents after transfer is completed - after each transfer)
 Let us know whether it is successful or not
 Calculate data size according to free RAM present as shown by Kinfocentre
[17:28] <R13ose> 21.04 - Whenever I use a web browser and zoom or have too many browser tabs open, the computer slows down massively.  How do I make sure that doesn't happen?
 Processor - dual core, quad core, octacore ? Also RAM size and whether HDD or SSD ? (re @IrcsomeBot: <R13ose> 21.04 - Whenever I use a web browser and zoom or have too many browser tabs open, the computer slows down massively.  How do I make sure that doesn't happen?)
[17:35] <R13ose> Processor: 4 x Intel Core i7-3667U CPU @ 2.00GHz  RAM: 7.6 GiB of RAM  This is SSD.
 3rd Generation processor
 Quadcore
 I think it is because of processor. Need to upgrade to higher generation - Dunno what other experts might think
 Also try not doing video conferencing and web browsing with multiple tabs at the same time - they additively eat up RAM
[17:49] <R13ose> Why do I need to upgrade to higher generation?
 This also can be done ... (re @Tshering1980: Also try not doing video conferencing and web browsing with multiple tabs at the same time - they additively eat up RAM)
 Also seek advise of other experts
 It really as far as I think depends upon System Load
 https://irc-attachments.kde.org/d18fa917/file_47107.jpg
 LJV1
 Running multiple tabs and on top of that Video conferencing eats up memory as well as CPU has to work aggressively
 Try seeing how much System Load the Computer takes when u are doing multiple web browsing and Zoom Video Conferencing. I think it would be touching around 90nto 95 percent of CPU processing power and RAM as well as Internet speed
[17:57] <tomreyn> R13ose: you will probably get better performance at lower system load if you'll use the dedicated zoom application
[17:57] <R13ose> I will look when I do both.
[17:58] <R13ose> I'm using the standalone zoom application already
[17:58] <tomreyn> oh ok, guess i misunderstood your question then
[17:59] <tomreyn> post your dmesg:   dmesg -T | nc termbin.com 9999
[18:00] <R13ose> Here is the dmesg: https://termbin.com/yj85
[18:12] <tomreyn> R13ose: unrelated note: you're missing BIOS security updates
[18:12] <R13ose> tomreyn: oh no.  How do I update the BIOS security?
[18:13] <tomreyn> https://pcsupport.lenovo.com/uk/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/thinkpad-x-series-laptops/thinkpad-x1-carbon-type-34xx/3444/3444f9u/downloads/ds030684-bios-update-utility-bootable-cd-for-windows-10-64-bit-81-8-7-32-bit-64-bit-xp-thinkpad-x1-carbon-type-34xx
[18:13] <tomreyn> "BIOS Update (Bootable CD)" - you can write this to a USB stick, too
[18:14] <R13ose> Thanks!
[18:14] <tomreyn> you currently have BIOS G6ETC2WW (2.82 ) 11/21/2018
[18:15] <Roey> hi
[18:15] <Roey> anyone here?  How do I mirror my panel from one monitor to the other?
[18:17] <gnoob> Oh,  I did this the other day.  I think.  Right click the desktop Add Panel -> Kubuntu Default panel
[18:18] <Roey> thansk!
[18:18] <Roey> but I have to add a new panel no?
[18:18] <Roey> like, to build it up the same way?
[18:18] <gnoob> Oh, i see you have customizations.
[18:19] <gnoob> ah, that's different probably
[18:19] <Roey> yes indeed
[18:19] <tomreyn> R13ose: dmesg looks fine. you may get better performance if you'll disable "secure boot" in bios.
[18:22] <tomreyn> R13ose: i guess i'd agree that the system may get slow due to the cpu mostly. primarily because of the (cpu) integrated graphics and its age.
[18:23] <R13ose> What is the solution to the cpu slowness?
[18:23] <tomreyn> replacing the laptop
 use fewer browser tabs I guess
 The last few upgrades to the browser have made it to use more RAM...I think u should know
[18:25] <tomreyn> Tshering1980 which web browser is this?
 Both Chrome and Firefox
 Google it
 Also if planning to upgrade BIOS, and if system doesnot inherently support it under Linux, FREEDOS will help u upgrade the BIOS
[18:28] <tomreyn> R13ose: comparison of your cpu to a current laptop cpu: https://www.cpubenchmark.net/compare/Intel-i7-3667U-vs-AMD-Ryzen-7-5800U/894vs4102
[18:29] <tomreyn> (also yours will lack hardware support for some video encodings, which can make a major difference)
[18:30] <R13ose> I'm using Vivaldi as my main browser
[18:30] <R13ose> Thanks for the suggestion with Freedos
[18:31] <tomreyn> you won't need to use freedos
[18:31] <tomreyn> if you disable secureboot you can actually do the bios upgrade from kubuntu
[18:31] <tomreyn> or you just write the iso to a usb
 https://vivaldi.com/blog/improve-performance-in-vivaldi/
 It also says in Vivaldi, each tab you open will hog up RAM
 either 8th generation or 11th generation i7 processor for laptops will do for you
 https://www.intel.in/content/www/in/en/gaming/i7-laptop-processor-for-gaming.html
[18:44] <tomreyn> R13ose: you can possibly inspect the web browsers' memory allocation at this url: chrome://system/
[18:45] <tomreyn> (i don't use Vivaldi so i'm guessing based on chromium, which uses the same rendering engine)
 All modern browsers use more RAM
[18:46] <R13ose> tomreyn: how do I do a bios upgrade from kubuntu after I disable secureboot?
 Provided your laptop motherboard supports it (re @Tshering1980: either 8th generation or 11th generation i7 processor for laptops will do for you)
[18:48] <tomreyn> R13ose: using the software update application *should* work (i never did it this way, though), or directly using the fwupd CLI
 I will need to learn how to do BIOS upgrade using fwupd.....  😀
 Y don't they just make BIOS files in .Deb or .rpm format along with .EXE
[18:52] <tomreyn> R13ose: https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2018/08/lvfs-lenovo-firmware-updates-linux
 THIS IS NEWS !!
[18:55] <tomreyn> hmm your 1st Gen X1 Carbon does not seem to be supported through fwupd
[18:55] <tomreyn> yes, 2018 news
[18:55] <tomreyn> or 2015 rather, thats when fwupd started
 I didn't notice earlier
[18:56] <R13ose> I saw that
 Also coz I don't have all my systems on EFI
 Some r still Legacy
 Updated 2019 March 31st (re @IrcsomeBot: <tomreyn> R13ose: https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2018/08/lvfs-lenovo-firmware-updates-linux)
 https://fwupd.org/lvfs/devices/
[19:05] <R13ose> The iso file doesn't seem bootable.
 If .exe file better off with freedos
 Burn freedos to usb
[19:08] <R13ose> Okay
 Get .exe file in freedos(remember the name of file and exact characters with .exe included) , bootup the usb and after typing name of file ( including .exe) press enter
 But see youtube video before using it. also see documentation
[19:13] <tomreyn> https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/update-lenovo-bios-from-linux-usb-stick-pen/
 https://irc-attachments.kde.org/ee4bac49/FD12FULL.vmdk
 https://irc-attachments.kde.org/43df1775/README.md
[19:17] <R13ose> Thanks
 Tomreyn I think will know more about ur system
 Freedos are for Legacy systems
 For BIOS upgrade
 Urs is EFI
[19:26] <R13ose> The BIOS upgrade worked afaik
[19:26] <tomreyn> journalctl -b | grep DMI:    will tell
 👍
[19:30] <R13ose> Yep that command shows BIOS upgraded
[19:31] <R13ose> Thanks tomreyn for recommending that.
 https://support.lenovo.com/pa/en/downloads/DS540232  tomreyn what does the bios utility tool for linux mean ?
[19:31] <tomreyn> R13ose: you're welcome
 does it support 16.04 or 16.04 onwards ?
[19:32] <tomreyn> Tshering1980: i assume this means to say it supports (exactly) Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
[19:33] <R13ose> tomreyn: is there anything else I should be upgrading?
[19:33] <tomreyn> someone needs to tell lenovo that there is no and never was a "Ubuntu 16"
 😂😂😂
 So, ISO cd is the way to go - by the way is the ISO an ISO-HYBRID ?
[19:34] <tomreyn> R13ose: i don't know whether your kubuntu installation is updated, you can try   sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade
[19:34] <R13ose> Mine is 21.04
 R13ose - added backports ppa ?
[19:36] <R13ose> Which backports ppa specifically?
 kubuntu backports ppa for non-LTS releases
 As notified on kubuntu website
[19:39] <R13ose> Okay
[20:13] <neo1968> LIST hack
[20:49] <tomreyn> neo1968: we have plenty of kubuntu warze on offer here.
