[00:09] <TheOrignl>  found one.  Thanks anyway.

[08:36] <Mekaneck> @Halis <Halis> (Sudoless keylogger to grab you sudo password) That's no virus and to retrieve the password one has to gain local access to the machine.
[08:36] <Mekaneck> Do some more research....
 Obviously a virus needs to run locally. But once it does, even with low non-sudo privilages, it can grab your key inputs and your enitre screen content. So saying viruses are harmless in Linux is probably incorrect or missleading (for most Desktops)
[12:06] <mparillo> sudo protects your machine. It does not protect $HOME. The average Kubuntu user and nuke their installation from orbit and re-install in minutes, but recovering $HOME can be a whole lot more difficult. That said, many of the attack scenarios on Linux assume evil maids or laptops left in taxis.
[12:36] <lefteris> Hi everyone!
[12:37] <lefteris> I have a question about Kubuntu. Am I in the correct channel?
[12:38] <mparillo> Yes
[12:39] <lefteris> Nice! I'm having a weird bug. When I open the volume menu from the taskbar, the audio stops for a bit and then it starts again. Am I doing something wrong?
[12:43] <mparillo> I have not seen it personally (but stay in the channel the whole time and ask again in a couple of hours, then maybe at different times of day). I expect that this is not kubuntu specific, so if you do not get an answer here, I would open a new bug, but against KDE, not Kubuntu: https://bugs.kde.org/enter_bug.cgi
[12:48] <lefteris> Okay! Thank you soo much then!
 I think, it does not. I will maybe try later to write a script to capture the sudo password with a keylogger and see, if I can execute with that sudo password with sudo rights (re @IrcsomeBot: <mparillo> sudo protects your machine. It does not protect $HOME. The average Kubuntu user and nuke their installation from orbit and re-install in minutes, but recovering $HOME can be a whole lot more difficult.

 Maybe there is a mitigation for exactly this, but since lack of knowledge, I will just test it
[13:31] <Dragnslcr> If you can install a keylogger to capture the password of someone with sudo access, then the game is over
[13:31] <Dragnslcr> But that isn't a Kubuntu support issue, so discussion about it can go to an off-topic channel
[13:40] <imam> wew
[13:48] <karthik_> Hello.. any one here?
[14:04] <lethu> karthik_, yes go ahead and ask your question
 I think, you did not understand the Problem. Installing something without sudo-rights is the potential Problem (basically running a simple script without sudo) (re @IrcsomeBot: <Dragnslcr> If you can install a keylogger to capture the password of someone with sudo access, then the game is over)
 If you wish so (re @IrcsomeBot: <Dragnslcr> But that isn't a Kubuntu support issue, so discussion about it can go to an off-topic channel)
[15:12] <BluesKaj> Hi folks
[15:18] <airsoftmodels> hello
 Hi BluesKaj
[15:44] <BluesKaj> @Halis, Hi
[18:12] <a1fa> hello everyone
[18:13] <a1fa> I am running Kubuntu 21.04, and after whatever the latest patches were, sddm no longer starts X
[18:13] <a1fa> startx works just fine
[18:13] <a1fa> sddm creates no logs of failure
[18:25] <a1fa> interesting issue
[18:25] <a1fa> sddm creates 0 logs
[18:25] <a1fa> and does not seem like it can take additioan verbosity
[18:26] <a1fa> https://askubuntu.com/questions/1352846/kubuntu-21-04-in-vmware-sddm-will-not-start-x-server-startx-works-fine-as-user
[18:26] <a1fa> looks like this poor sap had the same issue
[18:32] <a1fa> starting sddm as a sddm user, just hangs sddm
[18:38] <a1fa> as a work around i am having to run xdm
[18:43] <a1fa> ah - looks like whatever the latest kernel was - it took out nvidia drivers
[18:51] <a1fa> **that was it. i had to pruge the drivers, and reinstall to trigger initfs to be rebuilt with correct modules
[18:51] <a1fa> thanks _-_

[23:25] <Roey> hey anyone here using KDE on Wayland? What kind of remote capability is there?
 Forwarded from Deer_1S: I found that you can only be successful at some things if you don't give up too soon.  My first and second investments with two different account managers were unsuccessful, but my goal was to gain financial freedom and never give up, luckily i found option coin exchanges they have been honest with me in every aspect and advises should join and earn alot from this company you can sign up below and start earning today

[23:29] <gorgeous_inkpen> Hello! Can anyone give me recommendations or advice regarding remote desktop with Kubuntu?
[23:30] <gorgeous_inkpen> I am running RealVNC and it is incredibly slow. My machine at home isn't plugged into a monitor at the moment and it seems to be causing the issue.
