garyis there a command i ubuntu to aduit the os like windows sfc/scannow00:33
IrcsomeBot<daanota> If you're too concerned about virus in linux, install an immutable OS. Then use snap or better flatpaks. (re @IrcsomeBot: <gary> ello anyone know how to uninstall deb get system i installed it and when i sudo deb get install only office it installed 4 trojans and a uefi trojan loader now i dont know how to get rid of it and uninstall everything it put in here clamtk found the trojans)00:49
garyi got it00:58
garyinstalled flatpak finally and got rid of the trojan loader in my uefi00:59
garykubuntu 22.04 blocked me fresh install to install flatpak00:59
garyit will not allow me to edit sources so i installed stacer and did it that way01:00
garyto add flathub01:00
garyi had to boot from win pe flash a uefi bios update then fresh install kubuntu 22.04 then tried to add flathub via command line but when i goto softwaree and hit sources i put in password i get permission denied01:05
garyusr/bin software properties-qt denied01:06
garywhen i say software  i mean im in discover then setting then click sources01:07
garywhen i try to ad sources via term it opens xterm ask for pasword i enter denied01:08
garyhowever i can add via stacer app01:08
garyso now flatpak and snaps are listed in discover now01:09
arraybolt3gary: If you think your system has been infected by a virus, the only sure way to get rid of it is to reinstall the entire OS. This is called "nuke it from orbit", and is the way that information security professionals recommend you handle a malware infection. https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/138606/help-my-home-pc-has-been-infected-by-a-virus-what-do-i-do-now/138617#13861701:13
arraybolt3gary: Even then, firmware can be hacked, but it sounds like you handled that with WinPE already.01:14
arraybolt3gary: You might consider re-fixing your UEFI with WinPE again, then don't boot into the hacked system. Boot directly into an OS installer and reinstall Kubuntu. If there's any data you care about, you can copy it off of the infected system from within the live environment provided by the Kubuntu installation ISO.01:17
garyi already flashed to uefi i defalt it out deleated all entries then reflashed bios using the win pe and then reinstalled kubuntu01:23
garyis there a secret default password to add sources now in kubuntu 22.04 cause my user password does not let me in01:26
garyi found a way around it but wondering why i can no longer do it 20.04 you could do all that from the terminal with user password01:27
garyalso how do you get root in kubuntu 22.04 dolphin01:29
garydiscover store used to have a dolphin add on that would allow root01:29
garyit is no longer in the store01:30
garyanyone know01:32
arraybolt3gary: No, there is no secret default password that I know of, and the fact that your user password isn't letting you in sounds like it might be the result of a malware infection (unless you've manually messed with your user's permissions). Seriously, back up your data from within a live ISO and reinstall.01:49
arraybolt3gary: Oh, I only just now see that you did reinstall. Sorry.01:50
arraybolt3gary: That's odd. It almost sounds like maybe software-properties-qt got marked as non-executable? I don't know, this is weird. I'll download a Kubuntu 22.04 ISO and see what happens (though it may take me a bit since I've got four or so things I'm trying to do ATM)01:51

arraybolt3gary: Hmph, guess what? I just replicated your problem on accident on Ubuntu Studio 22.04. Guess it's bug report filing time! Thank you for bringing this bug to our attention.02:21
Eickmeyerarraybolt3, gary: Already a known bug.02:22
EickmeyerCovered in the release notes.02:22
arraybolt3Eickmeyer: Oh, OK. Didn't know that.02:23
EickmeyerWorkaround: open a terminal, sudo software-properties-qt.02:23
arraybolt3I always check before submitting a bug report to try and keep from submitting a dup, so I probably would've caught it, but good to know in advance. (And also, your workaround works. Thank you!)02:23
Eickmeyerarraybolt3: This is why you always, ALWAYS read release notes.02:24
EickmeyerAnd you're welcome.02:24
arraybolt3Eickmeyer: LOL I actually did, and I vaguely remember that this is a known bug, now that you remind me. But maybe I should always, ALWAYS **pay attention to** the release notes...02:24
EickmeyerHAHAHAHA yeah...02:24
Eickmeyer:)02:25
EickmeyerJust to be clear, it's bug 196543902:27
ubottuBug 1965439 in ubuntustudio-default-settings (Ubuntu Jammy) "software-properties-qt can no longer launch when called by kdesu" [High, In Progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/196543902:27
arraybolt3👍02:27
Eickmeyerarraybolt3: We've narrowed it down to sudo, but as we're volunteers, it's kinda slow-going at the moment.02:27
arraybolt3Eickmeyer: Maybe you can give me some more details in #ubuntustudio-devel? I love chasing down bugs, and would be happy to help find it.02:29
Eickmeyerarraybolt3: We've already chased it down between myself and RikMills. Basically there was an upload to Debian of sudo that broke it.02:30
EickmeyerSpecifically, broke kdesu.02:30
EickmeyerBut, let's discuss in #kubuntu-devel for sure.02:31
EickmeyerSince he and I have been discussing there.02:31

IrcsomeBot<Oov> hi09:13
IrcsomeBot<Oov> how to install android apps on kubuntu 20.0409:14
arraybolt3Oov: The easiest way I can think of to do that would be to install plasma-workspace-wayland, then log out, select Wayland at the login screen, then log back in. At that point, you should be able to install Waydroid. Keep in mind that this won't give you Google Play - you'll have to find Android apps from alternate sources like F-Droid or sideload them.09:16
arraybolt3Oov: I've never actually done this before, but I've researched it quite a bit.09:17
IrcsomeBot<D.> Is there a known issue that I can't select wayland at login? I think I had the option it before the LTS. No need to troubleshoot if it is not known, but I can't find mucht about Kubuntu 22.04 on this issue. But if it's a known issue, i'm quite interested.09:18
IrcsomeBot<Oov> ha ok09:18
IrcsomeBot<D.> JFA209:19
arraybolt3Oov: Not sure. Is plasma-workspace-wayland installed? It looks like it wasn't stable in 20.04: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FocalFossa/ReleaseNotes/Kubuntu09:20
IrcsomeBot<D.> Hi, I can't select wayland on login on kubuntu 22.04. I'm wondering if it is a known issue, i have a alienware R14 with hybrid video (intel/nvidia, driver nvidia-510). I think I had the option before 22.04 was LTS, but I also saw that the default was set to xorg on the LTS release. No need to troubleshoot, but I'm just wondering if anyone knows if it is a known issue.09:21
arraybolt3D.: Even in 22.04, it's "not supported" and is "for testing": https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JammyJellyfish/ReleaseNotes/Kubuntu09:22
IrcsomeBot<Oov> is it stable on 22.04?09:22
arraybolt3I'm guessing they probably didn't include it in LTS, but you can install it if you want.09:22
arraybolt3Oov: See my reply to D.09:23
IrcsomeBot<D.> ah thanks. I thought it was installed by default, looks like it was in the pre-LTS09:23
IrcsomeBot<RikMills> The package was dropped out of the default install in 22.04 so not to appear to be a supported option, which people tend to assume it is if it is there by default in the menu09:24
IrcsomeBot<D.> I just read through the release notes of Ubuntu, but didn't know there was a seperate for kubuntu.09:25
IrcsomeBot<D.> thanks! I was already an hour or so on duckduckgo.com for this. you solved it in one reply. Thanks! I'll stay around to see if I can help other ppl09:25
IrcsomeBot<RikMills> The flavour notes are all liked to from the main Ubuntu ones. Sadly at the bottom though, so perhaps too many give up reading before then :P (re @D.: I just read through the release notes of Ubuntu, but didn't know there was a seperate for kubuntu.)09:27

IrcsomeBot<D.> ah yes, you are correct, so its a RTFM issue, i did a ctl-f on that page on kubuntu saw the support forums and did a search on my issue there. From there i came here. So my bad, thanks for pointing it out.10:51

denixxHello, All! I have read the message "Upgrades to 22.04 LTS are currently not enabled (due a bug with snapd and update-notifier) but will be in the next couple of days." here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JammyJellyfish/ReleaseNotes/Kubuntu20:21
denixxI found this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/snapd/+bug/1969162 at launchpad.20:22
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1969162 in snapd (Ubuntu Impish) "bad interaction between snapd and update-notifier when snapd package is being upgraded" [High, Fix Released]20:22
denixxIt says "Fix Released"20:22
denixxSo I am here to ask, is it still disabled?20:24
denixxI mean should I manually run something, or Discover app would pop up later with proposition to roll to new version?20:27
denixxAlso, this page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/JammyUpgrades/Kubuntu says "From 21.10, there may a delay of a few hrs to days between the official release announcements and the Ubuntu Release Team enabling upgrades."20:30
