IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> No i’m not on Rawhide00:02
arraybolt3[m]OK, the image has been built, now I'm just compressing it so it will upload and download quicker.00:03
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> and from where00:03
arraybolt3[m]I'm going to upload it to GitHub once it's compressed and then send the link. The repo is here: https://github.com/ArrayBolt3/KubuntuGalaxyBookS (I've not yet uploaded the image file, however.) And I need to edit the README to be correct, but that's where it's going to be at eventually.00:05
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> K, tell me when i can download00:06
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> I’m going to sleep now, is it a problem to continue tomorrow?00:06
arraybolt3[m]No problem at all. Frankly, it may take that long to upload, so that's probably a good idea.00:06
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> Oh okay nice, see you00:07

MrSassyPantsis there some one click create access point option in kde like you would have on a mobile phone?15:02
cbreakMrSassyPants: 2 clicks15:12
MrSassyPantspower word pls15:12
cbreakclick on the network icon in the status bar15:12
cbreakthen click on the create hotspot button15:13
MrSassyPantsoh dayum I did not see that one15:13
MrSassyPantsthanks for pointing out I'm not just dumb but also blind15:13
MrSassyPantscbreak, ok I can't convince it to use a password >_>15:23
MrSassyPantsI found the setting where you can set the hotspot name and password but it doesn't seem to take15:24
cbreakI've never used that functionality.15:28
cbreakyou should be able to manually create a hotspot by adding a wi-fi network connection in accesspoint mode?15:30
MrSassyPantsok that works, but now finally, it doesn't seem to be able to set up a 5ghz network?15:38
MrSassyPants(It's the mobos wifi and should be able to do Wifi 6)15:39
MrSassyPantsOn some channels it actually sets up the hotspot and my phone sees it but can't connect15:49
MrSassyPantsEither there's a drastic driver problem, OR the problem is there's no automatic channel selection if you set it to 5ghz, and setting it to automatic band it prefers 2.4ghz for some reason15:50

arraybolt3[m]@I_it_depends_I: Congrats on getting the audio problem partially solved! I finished making that Kubuntu image if you'd like to give it a spin.19:09

IrcsomeBot<parkour_29> Is Kubuntu managed by canonical?19:32
IrcsomeBot<Eickmeyer> @parkour_29 The infrastructure is provided by Canonical as Kubuntu's benefit of being an official flavor of Ubuntu, but it is not managed by Canonical.19:58
IrcsomeBot<Eickmeyer> Kubuntu's not managed by Canonical, the infrastructure is.20:03
IrcsomeBot<parkour_29> Just checked it’s managed by a community now20:11

arraybolt3[m]@I_it_depends_I: OK, I'm here.22:25
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> Well22:25
arraybolt3[m]@I_it_depends_I: I got the image made and uploaded. Do you have a second flash drive other than the Fedora one to try this on, or are you OK with having to redo Fedora in the event this doesn't work out?22:25
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> i have one, it’s 7,5 GB, is it okay?22:26
arraybolt3[m]Sadly, no, it should be at least 16 GB.22:27
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> well no problem in redoing fedora22:27
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> I don’t like it so much22:27
arraybolt3[m]OK.22:27
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> In case of failure i’ll try Nitrux 2.2.1 that should also work22:28
arraybolt3[m]So boot up from a live ISO (the Fedora 36 ISO should work fine).22:28
arraybolt3[m]This will allow us to download and install the Kubuntu image.22:28
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> Don’t understand, have i to flash fedora 36 on the pendrive and click to try it?22:29
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> then do things22:29
arraybolt3[m]Where's that USB drive that you booted from to install Fedora?22:29
arraybolt3[m]Yeah, once you boot it, then you click to try it, then do things.22:29
arraybolt3[m]The reason we do this is because we can't boot from the 64 GB drive for this, since we're going to write the OS image to the 64 GB drive.22:30
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> Ahh okay (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3[m]> Where's that USB drive that you booted from to install Fedora?)22:30
arraybolt3[m]Let me know whenever you're booted up and ready.22:32
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> Give me some moment22:32
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> In case do you know if audio and stuff work22:33
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> In case do you know if audio and stuff will work22:33
arraybolt3[m]I do not know if audio will work, but if anything's going to work, this will likely give you the best shot at it.22:33
arraybolt3[m]I installed Linux 5.19 kernel into it, which is the absolute newest release available, and was released just a couple days ago I believe.22:34
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> Nice22:35
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> Ok, I’m starting Fedora from the flash pendrive, what do I have to do when it loads?22:42
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> Ok, started Fedora from flash pendrive22:42
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> Ok, started Fedora from flash pendrive and clicked to try it22:43
arraybolt3[m]@I_it_depends_I: Open a terminal with Ctrl+Alt+T, ensure your 64GB drive is inserted, and run "lsblk | nc termbin.com 9999", then send the link it spits out.22:43
arraybolt3[m]That will tell me which device name is your flash drive.22:43
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> okay22:43
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> https://termbin.com/m0o122:46
arraybolt3[m]@I_it_depends_I: OK, so next, run "sudo su -" so we can run commands as root.22:47
arraybolt3[m](Usually you'd just prefix commands with "sudo" to run them as root, but that may or may not work for one of the commands we need.)22:48
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> done22:48
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> yes, now the first thing written is "root" (i mean when he asks what to do)22:49
arraybolt3[m]@I_it_depends_I: OK, next is "umount /dev/sda2".22:49
arraybolt3[m]That will unmount the one mounted partition on the flash drive so we can flash it safely.22:50
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> done22:50
arraybolt3[m]@I_it_depends_I: OK, this is a very large command, and it will take a while to run, so type it carefully and be patient when it's done.22:50

arraybolt3[m]@I_it_depends_I: OK, there's the right one. ^22:51
arraybolt3[m]@I_it_depends_I: This will download the three parts of the image, uncompress them, and flash them to the drive all at once.22:52
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> nice22:52
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> it's doing that22:52
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> tells me about 13 min are necessary22:52
arraybolt3[m]Nice. It's a 5.1 GB download, so yeah, it will take a while.22:52
arraybolt3[m](You're not on a metered connection, right?)22:52
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> what do you mean with metered? (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3[m]> (You're not on a metered connection, right?))22:55
arraybolt3[m]I mean, do you have unlimited data on your Internet connection?22:55
arraybolt3[m]Or are these large downloads possibly a problem?22:55
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> Yep (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3[m]> I mean, do you have unlimited data on your Internet connection?)22:55
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> no they arent (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3[m]> Or are these large downloads possibly a problem?)22:55
arraybolt3[m]👍️22:56
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> the problem is that it seems to be freezed, but maybe it’s normal. It tells me are necessary 14m 3s since 3 min ago22:56
arraybolt3[m]It may be normal, if it's hit a part that was seriously well compressed and is now stuck decompressing.22:57
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> Ah no okay it changed22:57
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> idk if it finished22:59

arraybolt3[m]Hmm, no, something went wrong there.23:00
arraybolt3[m]Hmm, looking...23:00
arraybolt3[m]Crud, I think I see why it's not working, but how to get it to work, that's the tricky part.23:04
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> 🥲23:04
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> Wait, i noted now that the hour set was wrong, could it be a problem?23:06
arraybolt3[m]No, probably not.23:06
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> okya23:06
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> okay23:06
arraybolt3[m]Do you have a third flash drive other than the one you're flashing to and the one you're booted from?23:06
arraybolt3[m]I see you were booted from an SD card, so I'm hoping you have one more spare USB port on that laptop.23:07
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> Yes but it's 7.5 GB and really terrible23:07
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> never worked well as flash drive23:07
arraybolt3[m]That's fine, it's large enough to hole 5.1 GB of data. Is that OK to use it for that?23:07
arraybolt3[m]Hmm. OK, well...23:07
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> yep it's okay23:08
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> we can try23:08
arraybolt3[m]I'm trying to think of any other possible solutions so we don't burn out the flash drive.23:10
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> we can try with that drive, it's empty and sometimes it worked (in particular to boot linux mint)23:11
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> Linux tell me there are 8.1 GB of free space on that23:13
arraybolt3[m]OK. Plug it in, reformat it with fat32 using KDE Partition Manager, and then download the kubuntu.gz.1, kubuntu.gz.2, and kubuntu.gz.3 files from here: https://github.com/ArrayBolt3/KubuntuPreinstalled/releases/tag/7.31.202223:13
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> dont find kde partition manager23:14
arraybolt3[m]Agh, that's right, use Disks then.23:15
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> btw i think it's fat3223:15
arraybolt3[m]Oh OK. Then there may be no need to reformat.23:15
arraybolt3[m](You will have to set the download directory to the fat32 drive.)23:16
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> how to do that (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3[m]> (You will have to set the download directory to the fat32 drive.))23:17
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> what do you mean with download directory23:17
arraybolt3[m]@I_it_depends_I: Actually, just open the file manager and open the fat32 drive.23:18
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> Mh, because i can see it's downloading files in the folder "downloads"23:20
arraybolt3[m]Yeah, we'd need to change it to the external drive, because currently the "downloads" folder is actually in your system's RAM, and that's not going to hold all the files.23:20
arraybolt3[m]But hold on, there's another command line trick that may work, I'm testing it.23:21
arraybolt3[m]@I_it_depends_I: Try this longwinded nightmare of a command and see if it works.23:23
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> Btw don’t understand why the speed of downloading is doubled in Linux respect to Windows23:23

arraybolt3[m]You're not the first one to notice that Linux can download faster than Windows sometimes - it's really nice.23:24

arraybolt3[m]Yeah, do that.23:24
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> I think that the command u gave me is working fine23:25
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> I can say it for sure, because i tried a lot in these two days...23:27
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> In windows download speed is 400 Kb/s23:27

IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> In fact this download is at 50% (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3[m]> cat <(wget -O - https://github.com/ArrayBolt3/KubuntuPreinstalled/releases/download/7.31.2022/kubuntu.gz.1) <(wget -O - https://github.com/ArrayBolt3/KubuntuPreinstalled/releases/download/7.31.2022/kubuntu.gz.2) <(https://github.com/ArrayBolt3/KubuntuPreinstalled/releases/download/7.31.2022/kubuntu.gz.3) | zcat | dd of=/dev/sda bs=4M)23:28
arraybolt3[m]Huh, cool! And... yikes, 400 Kb/s? I've had to deal with that, and it is not fun.23:28
arraybolt3[m]Nice. I think that's just the first file though, and there's three files.23:28
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> okay (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3[m]> Nice. I think that's just the first file though, and there's three files.)23:30
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> https://imgur.com/a/zLwxHFf23:32

IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> after ending the first download23:33
arraybolt3[m]Great, looks like GitHub glitched this time. OK, I guess just download the files to the flash drive so we can avoid this silliness.23:34
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> so i have to download these files? (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3[m]> OK. Plug it in, reformat it with fat32 using KDE Partition Manager, and then download the kubuntu.gz.1, kubuntu.gz.2, and kubuntu.gz.3 files from here: https://github.com/ArrayBolt3/KubuntuPreinstalled/releases/tag/7.31.2022)23:35
arraybolt3[m]Yes.23:35
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> if yes, how to direct them to the drive23:36
arraybolt3[m]@I_it_depends_I: Cick the triple lines in the upper-right corner of Firefox, go to Settings, and find the download location drop down.23:40
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> thx, done23:41
IrcsomeBot<I_it_depends_I> about 15 min for the 3 files23:42
