user|95I'm wanting to install LInux on a new ASUS ZenBook Pro Duo 15 OLED UX582HS-XH99T Laptop.  I want to copy what someone else did and not reinvent.  It's a dual screen laptop with options optimized for Windows 11 Professional.  Any thoughts would be welcome00:46

IrcsomeBot<Technopat_Official> this appears when I launch Kubuntu-driver-manager (obvious, it's the same module). Click "Ignore" then re-enter your pwd in the next dialog-box (re @nash_g5: )09:08
phalorwhen i run (ufw allow in on ens3 proto tcp from any port any to 192.168.2.1 port 25) it says "ERROR: Could not find protocol". does anyone know why?11:42
BluesKajHi all12:33
phalordoes anyone know why my firewall isnt letting this in? https://gcdnb.pbrd.co/images/o2KS7ms3ByYE.png13:15
* doclinux I have configed a nice Conky window for kubuntu users that i tthink some of you would like. Its verey informative with a KDe theme and looks awesome./n I need to know where to upload it, so that KDE users can enjoy it as much as I have?13:49
BluesKajdoclinux, think #kde-devel chat can help you with that13:51

ezekiel4udoes anybody know the computer specs forkubuntu 21.10?18:34
mparilloSame as Ubuntu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements18:38
ezekiel4ui only got 7.7gbs of ram18:39
mparilloFor most of us, KDE will be a bit lighter than Gnome, but not enough to make a difference.18:39
ezekiel4uwill it run decent?18:39
mparilloI have about the same (8GB with Intel graphics gives me 7.6 GiB).18:40
rioting_pacifistI run KDE on 8GB with firefox as the main browser and it runs fine18:40
mparilloI am content. But I don't game, compile Firefox, and I have an SSD so when I swap, which is seldom, it is not too painful.18:41
ezekiel4uoh.18:42
ezekiel4uim asking because i used to have only 6gb and it lagged alot18:42
ezekiel4u21.10 yes but not 20,0418:42
ezekiel4u22.04 is coming out soon.18:43
mparilloAnd then FF will be a snap, so its initial load may lag more than you are used to.18:44
rioting_pacifistDo you have a swap? On SSD/HDD? 6GB should be fine, but it does depend what is running?18:45
ezekiel4urioting_pacifist, nop18:46
ezekiel4ussd is good though18:47
ezekiel4ui want a 8tb ssd though18:47
ezekiel4ua fast and efficient drive18:47
rioting_pacifistSetup a swap on it either partition or file, and that should allow KDE to run smoothly with 6GB18:48
ezekiel4urioting_pacifist, sorry bout that was eating18:57
ezekiel4uis the swap ext4?18:58
ezekiel4uplus i told you i got 7.7gbs19:00
oerheks4Gb would do, more is better.19:01
rioting_pacifistswap can be either a partition or a file, even with 8GB i'd recommend it if you have the space19:01
ezekiel4uyeah but you dont know 22.04 might use more ram!19:02
ezekiel4uits coming out soon19:02
ezekiel4ui think i  need a new computer!19:03
oerheksyou might want to upgrade your pc with a proper GPU?19:03
oerheksnot the onboard intel thingy..19:04
ezekiel4uwhat compter is good for kubuntu19:04
ezekiel4ubrand wise19:04
ezekiel4uacer hp dell etc?19:04
oerheksalso, tweaking animations helps a lot.19:04
rioting_pacifist<ezekiel4u> "yeah but you dont know 22.04..." <- Not significantly, it's shipping with versions of KDE that are already available in backports, there is no reason that it would use more/less ram than Kubuntu 21.10 with the same KDE version19:08
ezekiel4uoh thank you i thought it used more19:09
ezekiel4urioting_pacifist, your a life saver19:09
valorieyou don't have to use the snap tho19:15
valorieI run FF from flatpak19:15
rioting_pacifistno problem, tbh I haven't seen much ram usage creep in KDE releases anyway but 22.04 looks like it will ship with the same plasma version as i'm currently running: https://packages.ubuntu.com/jammy/plasma-framework and newer apps (21.08 vs 20.12)19:16
valorieI've seen Plasma become more efficient over time19:16
valorieI might be prejudiced because I have only SSDs now19:17
mparilloThere is also: https://www.reddit.com/r/Kubuntu/comments/typdhh/recipe_getting_firefox_installed_from_deb_in/19:23
mparilloOr just run Konqueror, Falkon, or Qutebrowser.19:24

geniiusually from the command line to issue: sudo do-release-upgrade22:43
user|4Thanks, I have done that before to get to 21.04,  but thought there must be a simpler way... silly me.22:45
