[01:52] <Brad22> Trying to figure install kubuntu 18.04 a couple days now. Freezes at same screen everytime
[02:26] <IrcsomeBot> <DarinMiller> Brad22, can you try installing a more current version of Kubuntu?  I remember the frozen screen on an older install, however  unsure  if it was 18.04.
[02:33] <gary_> hello
[02:34] <gary_> anyone here or just bots
[02:35] <oerheks> hello human
[02:35] <IrcsomeBot> <DarinMiller> hi
[02:35] <gary_> anyone know uefi issues or battery issues
[02:35] <gary_> trying to trouble shoot this laptop
[02:37] <gary_> battery drains when powered down
[02:37] <IrcsomeBot> <DarinMiller> what is the make/model of the laptop
[02:37] <gary_> also weirdest thing i have to do when booting the pc
[02:38] <gary_> i have to hit the f12 button each boot select the drive then after the dell logo hold down the f12 till it boots to kubuntu login screen
[02:39] <IrcsomeBot> <DarinMiller> Can you select the boot partition from the BIOS?
[02:42] <gary_> yeah i have tried changing to leagcy boot no boot that way it turns the tpm and secure boot off in leagacy and does not boot but when tpm is enable it will boot in secureboot with tpm on by holding f12 down select the only drive to bootfrom then when the logofor dell shows up i have to hold down f12 to get it to boot to the logon screen for kubuntu
[02:43] <gary_> its weird
[02:44] <gary_> if i dont hold down the f12 i get a blank screen instead of logon screen
[02:45] <IrcsomeBot> <DarinMiller> I have secure boot disabled on all my Dell laptops.
[02:46] <gary_> yeah i tried that it would not boot into the os just the bios
[02:47] <IrcsomeBot> <DarinMiller> Fresh install?
[02:48] <gary_> perviously i had ubuntu on here and after the lastest update it would not boot so installed kubuntu cause ubuntugnome was saying kfd not supported at boot up what ever that meant
[02:49] <gary_> i cleared all uefi entries on the uefi menu before installing kubuntu yes fresh it came with ubuntu on it
[02:49] <IrcsomeBot> <DarinMiller> Dual booting or just Kubuntu?
[02:49] <gary_> no dual boot
[02:49] <gary_> just kubuntu on it now before ubuntu on it
[02:50] <gary_> the tpm has a trusted ubuntu cert in there to allow secure boot
[02:51] <gary_> does kubuntu and ubuntu have the same efi64 file
[02:51] <IrcsomeBot> <DarinMiller> Can you live boot a USB drive with secure boot disabled?
[02:51] <IrcsomeBot> <DarinMiller> They should be different.
[02:52] <gary_> i can boot either way with a usb aslong as incert the efi into the bios first before trying to boot anythumb drive
[02:53] <IrcsomeBot> <DarinMiller> Does your install include a ~200 to 300MB EFI fat32 partition?
[02:54] <gary_> when i boot this computer from thumb drive the bios ask for the efi cert for boot then i find it on the disk and then it rebootsand boots the thumb drive
[02:54] <IrcsomeBot> <DarinMiller> partition manager will show it as /boot/efi
[02:54] <gary_> 500md efi
[02:55] <gary_> 2tb drive
[02:55] <IrcsomeBot> <DarinMiller> does the partition label say EFI System Partition?
[02:56] <IrcsomeBot> <DarinMiller> You may have forgot to specify the EFI partition during install?
[02:57] <gary_> vfat 500mb efi
[02:58] <gary_> it used entiredisk guided to install
[02:59] <gary_> its a new drive never had an os onit till kubuntu
[03:00] <gary_> whats uuid
[03:00] <gary_> it says eabe-5099
[03:01] <IrcsomeBot> <DarinMiller> That just a unique partition id #.   (Can be used for mounting reference if needed such as /etc/fstab...)
[03:01] <gary_> ok gotcha
[03:01] <IrcsomeBot> <DarinMiller> Would it be too much trouble to disable secure boot and re-install?
[03:03] <gary_> i think its the spalsh screen res in grub that its hanging up on
[03:04] <gary_> thats why when i hold f12 it goes into verbose mode and boots to the logon screen
[03:05] <IrcsomeBot> <DarinMiller> I have never encountered splash screen resolution issues.  How did you draw that conclusion?
[03:05] <gary_> is there a way to edit the resouloution of the splash screen in grub
[03:07] <gary_> cause thats where it will not boot after the dell logo disappers the splash logo supposed to show up but if you hold down f12 on this laptop it boots grub in verbose mode no splash
[03:07] <gary_> on older pcs verbose would be the escape key during boot
[03:09] <IrcsomeBot> <DarinMiller> Yes, you can install grub-customizer or  follow these instructions here: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/538562/how-do-i-edit-grub-cfg-and-save-it
[03:09] <gary_> thanks
[03:09] <gary_> awesome
[03:10] <gary_> this is a 12 inch 2 in one tablet im pretty sure its the boot spalsh hanging the boot up
[03:11] <IrcsomeBot> <DarinMiller> If you discover the grub settings that fix it, please report back.  As I said, I have not heard of this issue before.
[03:15] <gary_> https://sourceforge.net/projects/kcm-grub2/
[03:15] <gary_> im installing this one it intergrates with kde
[03:15] <gary_> i will be right back
[03:17] <IrcsomeBot> <DarinMiller> That project is a bit old, not sure if that will work with current versions of plasma...
[03:20] <gary_> ok moment of truth its shutting down and rebooting
[03:20] <IrcsomeBot> <DarinMiller> 👍
[03:21] <gary_> i just edited the original to the resolution and saved and applied it
[03:21] <gary_> yes that flipping worked i dont have to hold f12 to boot anymore
[03:22] <gary_> damn it boots super fast now too
[03:22] <gary_> thank so much for your help
[03:22] <IrcsomeBot> <DarinMiller> Nice job on troubleshootig!
[03:24] <gary_> so the problem is kfd stoney which is my graphics chipset does not support the res
[03:24] <gary_> but now it does
[03:24] <IrcsomeBot> <DarinMiller> wow, good to know in case others report the issue.
[03:25] <IrcsomeBot> <DarinMiller> what resolution did you use?
[03:25] <gary_> hold on i will look
[03:27] <gary_> it was 1366x768 and now 640x480
[03:27] <gary_> which the desktop res after it boots is 1366x768
[03:27] <gary_> weird guess this laptop is bonkers
[03:29] <gary_> ok have a good one

[11:05] <user|29> versione 32 bit quale?
[11:07] <user|29> Questa versione va bene anche a 32 bit grazie
[12:53] <user|66> hello. I am trying to install kubuntu on a newly built PC without any OS
[12:53] <user|66> I have the ISO file on a USB drive, but it says the drive doesn't contain an OS
[12:58] <tomreyn> user|66: how did you put the iso file to the usb drive?
[13:02] <user|66> I downloaded it directly into the USB drive from another computer
[13:02] <tomreyn> user|66: just copying the iso file as is to the usb storage wont work.
[13:03] <tomreyn> user|66: i generally suggest using balena etcher for writing bootable iso files to usb attached storages, just because it does everythign you need by default and works on most operating systems.
[13:04] <tomreyn> and its super simple to use
[13:07] <user|66> would rufus work?
[13:07] <user|66> got recommended to use this
[13:08] <mparillo> It has been a while, but look for dd mode in rufus.
[13:10] <user|66> where do I find that?
[13:10] <user|66> I have rufus open now and don't see it anywhere
[14:07] <tomreyn> user|66: rufus should be prompting you as to whether you want to write in iso or dd mode: https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1206968/41247520-1d7246f4-6da6-11e8-9902-5146a5a08113.png
[14:21] <user|66> I ended up using balena etcher. Worked perfectly and I am about to boot kubuntu now, installation was super quick :D
[14:21] <user|66> thank you for your help!
