IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> @RikMills valorie I have a draft for the 5.24.2 release on 21.10 on the site.15:01
IrcsomeBot<RikMills> Nice. I haven't started the build yet though :P (re @ahoneybun: @RikMills valorie I have a draft for the 5.24.2 release on 21.10 on the site.)15:02
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> Well I'm getting us ready when you do !15:02
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> *hugs*15:03
IrcsomeBot<RikMills> 👍15:03

mmikowskiHey team, we at Kubuntu Focus are looking at ways to provide customers with better system rollback solutions.19:14
mmikowskiWe have a working prototype with luks+ext4 which is nice, but the snapshot sizes grow very quickly and it requires a good deal of additional disk space.19:15
mmikowskiCorrection: that's luks+lvm+ext4. Pretty standard layout, just with extra space for snapshots.19:20
mmikowskiThe other approach we were looking at is luks+btrfs (no luks). This appears to work well as POC, but I was curious what others felt about this setup.19:21
mmikowskifwiw, almost-FDE is completely a requirement here. 19:21
mmikowskiAlso, if there is interest in adding an upstream option on btrfs, we can certainly contribute our work.19:21
mmikowskiSo any recommendations on btrfs + luks? Any warnings? Any interest in upstreaming for perhaps as luks+btrfs option?19:28
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> I think it depends if ubiquity can handle it, not sure if you still use that.20:04
mmikowskiHi Aaron. Yeah, we can probably rework Ubiquity to handle that.20:24
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> Good luck with the code haha20:54
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> mmikowski while I have you in here where is the code for the keyboard color software that you ship with?20:58
IrcsomeBot<Eickmeyer> @ahoneybun I can probably get that for you, hang on...21:06
IrcsomeBot<Eickmeyer> @ahoneybun It was pretty much my brainchild. It's in this .deb file if you want to extract that. There's no compiled binaries, it's all a script: https://launchpad.net/~kfocus-team/+archive/ubuntu/release/+files/kfocus-kb-color_20.04.106_all.deb21:11
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> I had something similar here: https://github.com/ahoneybun/keyboard-color-switcher21:12
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> I think yours does a lot more .21:12
IrcsomeBot<Eickmeyer> Oh cool!21:12
IrcsomeBot<Eickmeyer> Yeah, it should work on anything that uses the tuxedo-keyboard driver.21:12
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> I've been reading our own dmidecode to find the model so it won't work for you unless you are doing something to dmidecode for kfocus.21:13
IrcsomeBot<Eickmeyer> Well, we only have two models that can use it (the M1 and M2), so it's pretty easy to sort that out.21:13
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> Oh yea super easy on that end.21:14
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> Do you have plans on supporting Coreboot? Your models are the galp and oryp for us I believe so it shouldn't be too hard.21:14
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> Are these Sager or right from Clevo?21:14
IrcsomeBot<Eickmeyer> We have no plans to support Coreboot at this time.21:14
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> Ah that's understandable.21:15
IrcsomeBot<Eickmeyer> We go through Sager because they're an authorized Clevo service center.21:15
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> Ah that's fair.21:15
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> So the M2 and the XE.21:16
IrcsomeBot<Eickmeyer> Yeah, those are the two current models. The M1 is legacy.21:16
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> I've just gotten back into working on Kubuntu stuff so still feeling around lol21:16
IrcsomeBot<Eickmeyer> Oh, absolutely. :)21:17
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> https://github.com/kubuntu-team/kubuntu-manual ;)21:18
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> trying out readthedocs with the kubuntu-docs repo though.21:18
mmikowski@ahoneybun KDE has been really kicking it recently. Nate Graham has done a great job of communicating and coordinating product vision that really helps the casual user.21:19
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> Yes he has indeed.21:19
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> I had a PR accepted and filed one bug so far lol21:20
mmikowskiIt's funny, many issues that are an issue in Gnome-based ditros are alleviated with KDE.  OTOH, the reverse is also true.21:20
mmikowskiA great example is the issue with packagekit and kernel cleanup - not an issue in stock ubuntu because packagekit isn't used.21:21
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> This is my bug: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44981321:22
ubottuKDE bug 449813 in Discover "Adding repos causes apt to error out about gpg key" [Normal, Confirmed]21:22
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> speaking of packagekit21:22
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> @RikMills can we set times to work or review the feature tour for 22.04 LTS?21:41
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> I really want to update that for the next LTS.21:42
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> or valoria.21:42
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> or valorie21:42
valoriesorry, in a meeting right now21:43
mmikowski@ahoneybun I'm curious if you are you planning the feature tour to be a document, video, or something else?21:46
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> I was just going to update the photos as we needed.21:46
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> We're a bit limited on what WP will support.21:47
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> A video is a bit iffy since it takes more time to edit to update.21:47
mmikowskiAh, WP = Word Press21:47
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> Yep21:47
