| Drazur | Greetings. I have an issue when trying to install Kubuntu 22.04 LTS from Live USB. I have an old motherboard with legacy BIOS (no UEFI), but after choosing the partitions I got a "No EFI system partition was found" message. | 02:59 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Oov> Microsoft button on the left (re @Oskar: What is meta button?) | 02:59 |

| Drazur | Greetings. I have an old PC with legacy BIOS (no UEFI). When I'm choosing the partitions on the Kubuntu 22.04 installer, I get this warning: | 03:54 |
| Drazur | No EFI System Partition was found. This system will likely not be able to boot successfully, and the installation process may fail. | 03:54 |
| guiverc | Drazur, a warning about no ESP being partitions can be ignored on a BIOS/legacy box.. is the message you're getting from the installer (if so ignore it), or a post-install, post-boot error message? | 04:30 |
| guiverc | Drazur, I wrote an answer here long ago; it maybe helpful - https://askubuntu.com/questions/1273421/lubuntu-installer-giving-error-after-partition-creation-your-system-may-or-may | 04:32 |
| guiverc | The message from the installer is a WARNING only, not an error (yeah a number of people read it as an error though & there is a bug about changing the wording so it's less confusing for end-users) | 04:32 |
| Drazur | It is a message I'm getting from the installer, on the menu where I choose how to format (or not) the partitions, guiverc. | 04:32 |
| guiverc | that askubu won't help much; a quick search found it, there is a better one but I'm not going to look for it sorry | 04:34 |
| guiverc | If your system is using uEFI or Secure-uEFI then the message really matters; I QA-test with old BIOS boxes & just ignore it as it doesn't apply (they don't know what to do with ESP/efi system partition even if present) | 04:35 |
| Drazur | Don't worry. I'm tired of looking at askubuntu too, haha. So, nothing bad will happen if I just continue the instalation, ignoring that no EFI warning, right, guiverc? | 04:35 |
| Drazur | My motherboard has no UEFI nor Secure Boot. I bought it in 2011, lol. | 04:36 |
| guiverc | Yep... I'm saying if your box is BIOS (not uEFI) it'll boot if MBR or boot-loader is written to correct drive | 04:36 |
| guiverc | I check to ensure the MBR or boot loader is written to correct drive, I'm writing to correct drive/partitions in summary screen; uEFI doesn't matter on pre-uEFI boxes | 04:37 |
| Drazur | It's a relief to know that. I've made the same partition setup in previous LTS versions of Kubuntu, and this is the first time I got an EFI warning. | 04:38 |
| Drazur | I will give it a try. | 04:39 |
| guiverc | the message has been there a number of releases, but I forget when it was added, and it's more obvious on some releases than others; the post I mention it was 20.04 but I think it was introduced in 2019 but I forget | 04:41 |
| Drazur | I don't remember getting this warning with 20.04, but it was 2 years ago. I don't remember very well. | 04:43 |
| alkisg | Drazur: it's as you say; to fix it, participate in my bug report there: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1951674 | 06:25 |

| IrcsomeBot | <npeippo> Any tips for this? (re @npeippo: Looks like Firefox's default keyboard shortcut for jumping to a certain tab is ALT+number. I'm used to ^+number from Windows, is it possible to change? Couldn't find from ffox's own settings.) | 09:58 |

| IrcsomeBot | <npeippo> Which TeamViewer type of an program would you suggest for Kubuntu? | 15:00 |

| cbreak | you might be searching for a VNC style software? | 15:21 |
| user|29 | I need a 32 bit version of kubuntu | 15:36 |
| oerheks | Kubuntu 18.04 LTS was the last Kubuntu with i386 (x86 32-bit) support. | 15:38 |
| oerheks | https://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/18.04/release/ | 15:39 |
| cbreak | user|29: x86? | 16:03 |
| oerheks | oh 18.04 must be EOL now too .. | 16:06 |
| cbreak | oerheks: doesn't it have 1 more year? | 16:08 |
| cbreak | hmm... | 16:08 |
| cbreak | https://ubuntu.com/about/release-cycle | 16:08 |
| cbreak | seems to have a lot of life left, if you're prepared to pay :D | 16:08 |
| oerheks | esm can be used private, for free.. but do you want such old system | 16:09 |
| cbreak | I'll be on 22.10 in a few months :D | 16:10 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Oski146> 22.04 works like a charm, with a little of bugs but they are not worth to talk about except the steam deleting all bug (re @IrcsomeBot: <cbreak> I'll be on 22.10 in a few months :D) | 16:11 |
| cbreak | it's too bad ubuntu's installer is junk | 16:11 |
| cbreak | but now that I set my system up myself, I can just fork the zfs dataset with ubuntu, install new versions on it, upgrade | 16:11 |
| cbreak | and if I don't like it, just go back to an earlier clone | 16:11 |
| cbreak | oski146: early 22.04 had some stupid zfs related issues, so I was hessitant to upgrade | 16:12 |
| oerheks | we still need humans to fix bugs | 16:12 |
| cbreak | yeah. Luckily | 16:13 |
| oerheks | sorry for that | 16:13 |
| cbreak | I'd be out of a job out of that if AI could write proper code :D | 16:13 |
| cbreak | hmm... wonder what 22.10 will be called. | 16:14 |

| bluejaypop | hello, I'm trying to upgrade from 21.04 to 22.04 but is not possible according to this link : https://stackoverflow.com/questions/73034540/an-upgrade-from-hirsute-to-jammy-is-not-supported-with-this-tool the problem is that I cannot upgrade, it marks error, what should I do on this? | 22:04 |
| oerheks | !eolupgrade | 22:04 |
| ubottu | End-Of-Life is when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop. Make sure to update Ubuntu before it goes EOL so you get updates promptly for newly-discovered security vulnerabilities. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOL and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more info. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 22:04 |
| oerheks | see the EOLupgrade url, add old version to the sources address.. | 22:05 |
| oerheks | there is 1 server as backup. | 22:05 |
| bluejaypop | oerheks, yes, but what are the source address? I need o upgrade first to 21.10 and then 22.04 afaik | 22:08 |
| cbreak | bluejaypop: is reinstalling not an option? | 22:27 |
| cbreak | bluejaypop: read the link the ubottu bot gave you, the last one has the info | 22:28 |
| oerheks | yes, through 21.10 to 22.04 | 22:33 |
| oerheks | that is, with the -d option, | 22:33 |
| oski146 | hello i want to know if kubuntu has support for fingerprint sensors | 23:17 |
| oski146 | and if my sensors are supported | 23:18 |
| IrcsomeBot | <npeippo> Yeah, I have that working (re @IrcsomeBot: <cbreak> and kde connect can give remote input to some degree (but without screen replay)) | 23:21 |
| IrcsomeBot | <npeippo> But I need the screen to show on my phone, as with TeamViewer. I know TV is available for Linux, but I thought to ask if there are better alternatives to try :) | 23:22 |
| oski146 | how can i install support for fingerprint? plasma 5.24 should support it i have read but dont find anything | 23:22 |
| oerheks | fingerprint is possible, on supported devices https://fprint.freedesktop.org/supported-devices.html and https://launchpad.net/~fingerprint/+archive/ubuntu/fingerprint-gui | 23:24 |
| oerheks | that ppa is old, there are only a few more device ids | 23:25 |
| oski146 | how to find out which fp sensor i have | 23:28 |
| oski146 | fprint says no such devices | 23:28 |
| oski146 | i installed from repositories | 23:29 |
| oski146 | https://askubuntu.com/questions/1237451/using-fingerprint-reader-in-kubuntu-20-04-on-thinkpad-t495 | 23:30 |
| oerheks | lsusb, or lspci | 23:32 |
| oski146 | i did and searched for it and it gives me this https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/libfprint/wiki/-/wikis/Devices/27c6:5110 | 23:34 |
| oski146 | what means work in progress there? | 23:34 |
| oerheks | not working yet | 23:35 |
| oski146 | ok so i dive into the disord there and ask whtas going on thank you here | 23:37 |
