BluesKajHi all12:46
duckzillahello12:47
duckzillahow is everyone12:47
BluesKajok here, duckzilla, how about you?12:48
duckzillagood, im getting a laptop for christmas and im planning on installing kubuntu on it12:49
BluesKajnice12:50
Eickmeyer[m]@Oski146 The kernel is handled by the Ubuntu kernel team. The low latency kernel has more uses beyond Ubuntu Studio. What you have is the latest. Ubuntu Studio doesn't operate from a separate repository than the rest of Ubuntu, hence it's a flavor, not a distribution.12:54
IrcsomeBot<Oski146> Thank you for fast response 😊12:54
IrcsomeBot<CrustyCrab55> Wait this mean all other Ubuntu Based distributions including Kubuntu will gain the new kernel update?

Eickmeyer[m]@CrustyCrab55: Kubuntu is also merely an official flavor of Ubuntu, not a separate distribution, so yes. An example of a separate distribution would be pop_os or Linux Mint, which use separate repositories.12:59
IrcsomeBot<CrustyCrab55> OMG yes I’ll hit terminal and see if there’s work around there 😃13:02

magic_ninjawhich file system would be best to store large amounts of data (10+ TB) ? I swap my drive every 5 or so years and it's time to upgrade, and I want to move away from NTFS.16:48
magic_ninjaMy storage drive that is. All I do is store my archives of stuff on it.16:48
magic_ninjaI'm planning on using my old 6TB drive to back up select parts of the new 14TB one.16:49
DragnslcrI'm a big fan of ZFS16:49
magic_ninjaRight on. Most of the info I've found is general information. It seems like a toss-up between btrfs and ZFS.16:50
DragnslcrSnapshots are a huge feature, and it's easy to copy snapshots to another disk that you can use for separate/off-site backups16:50
magic_ninjaI want something that helps with bit rot and that I don't have to mess with. I'm not doing raid or anything like that.16:50
magic_ninjaThough I might partition the 14TB one so that I can just back up certain partitions or something to the 6TB16:51

IrcsomeBot<Omar> Ok (re @CrustyCrab55: You might wanna try this:18:44
IrcsomeBot<Omar> sudo apt list - - upgradable18:44
IrcsomeBot<Omar> Suppose it lists the following packages x,y,z18:44
IrcsomeBot<Omar> Now you may wanna try, sudo apt upgrade x,y,z)18:44
Specctrenoticed the plasma integration extension in firefox is not working.  Says "Failed to connect to native host".  Firefox is installed through snap.  Is this a known thing with Firefox though snap?  Tried flatpak and it was the same issue.  On my laptop on KDE Neon with firefox installed through apt (non snap) it works fine.20:02
cbreakSpecctre: that's the typical snap problem20:03
Specctrecbreak: and no fix I take it?20:03
cbreakall those modern packaging methods fuck up desktop integration for security20:03
cbreakI think there's an inofficial firefox ppa that should work20:03
cbreakbut while I very much dislike snap, I dislike relying on third parties for browser security (or any security) even more, so I can't give you first hand information about this :P20:04
Specctreokay, yeh I saw someone talking about doing it that way but had issues with it still installing the snap version when it updates20:04
cbreakis the plasma integration useful?20:04
Specctrejust playing with it so can't really answer that just yet ;)20:05
SpecctreI'm just getting back into using linux after quite a break so just exploring and going down rabbit holes20:06
Specctrereally liking kubuntu and KDE neon, just interestin to see the differences between them.20:07
cbreakI like kubuntu, but the browser integration never seemed useful, back in 21.04 when I tried it20:08
leaftypewhat is the kde firefox integration anyways?21:16
leaftypeare we talking about the search? because that works fine for me21:17
cbreakI think it integrates bookmarks and stuff into the kde launcher thingie, which I dislike, and a bunch of other things21:17
IrcsomeBot<RikMills> https://community.kde.org/Plasma/Browser_Integration21:17
piperjonSuper noob here, have studio. Apparently it's time to upgrade the whole shebang; am I in for happy fun times learning a bunch of stuff, or is there a simple approach?  I made the mistake of googling it...21:19
leaftypeI use kde connect all the time, and it can control youtube just fine with a firefox snap21:19
leaftypeall that stuff is working21:19
leaftypepiperjon: I think you might want to be more specific than that21:20
leaftypeRikMills: for that matter, I don't have the plasma integration addon in firefox, so I don't know how it's supposed to work.21:21
cbreakI use kde connect without the plasma integration21:21
piperjonWhen I booted up yesterday I found that my distro no longer has a release file, and I found a page via askubuntu which suggested I needed to upgrade from Impish Idri to Jammy Jellyfish. I went to a second page that gave me about 300 steps on how to achieve that.21:22
leaftypepiperjon: upgrading from 21.10 to 22.04 should not take 300 steps21:23
piperjonI understand the need to upgrade, but I've only had ubuntu for around 3 months, and am still learning a lot.  Didn't quite expect this.21:23
piperjon Well I may be exaggerating the number of course, but it appeared a bit more involved than I was anticipating.21:24
leaftypepiperjon: sudo apt update ** sudo apt dist-upgrade21:24
piperjonomg, really? That's all there is to it?21:25
piperjonAs you can tell I have a LOT to learn.21:25
leaftypebeen awhile since I did it that way, let me check21:25
leaftypebtw, it's supposed to be &&21:26
leaftypenot **21:26
piperjonThe page I found had discrete instructions for updatin the kernel, along with a variety of other things that made my eyes jiggle a bit21:26
leaftypeoh god, don't do that21:26
piperjonAnd that's exactly why I started looking for other answers.  Fortunately, I found you, and I GREATLY appreciate your patience.21:27
leaftypeI haven't upgraded the whole distro via KDE's 'Discover' package manager yet, but in theory it should be able to21:27
leaftypeah, "do-release-upgrade -d"21:29
leaftypesudo apt update && sudo do-release-upgrade21:29
leaftypethat should do the trick21:30
leaftypestill, let me check how to do it graphically, because that's probably the more normal way21:30
piperjonThank you so much!21:31
piperjonThis also helped me to understand HOW to ask a question on such things, too, so you have helped in more ways than one.21:32
leaftypeglad to hear it21:32
leaftypeif you load up "discover", and click update, does it offer to upgrade to 22.04?21:34
leaftypeyou might like this too: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/JammyUpgrades/Kubuntu21:34
piperjonit didn't yesterday nor today when I just tried, Discover was where it said that I didn't have a release file, and did not give me an option to upgrade. That's what started the whole scary bunny hole I went down21:36
leaftypegotcha21:36
piperjonIt was very dark down there, lol21:37
leaftypelol21:37
leaftypeone of the big issues with linux in general is trying to figure things out by jumping down giant rabbit holes21:37
leaftypeit's something that shouldn't ever happen, but for some reason it often does21:37
piperjonYeah, and while I'm more technologically savvy than some, I"m such a rank noob at all things Linux that I really feel lost some times, and then I find that big ol bunny hole.  No bueno.21:38
leaftypeI think it's easier for techy  people in general to get wrapped up in random details until they're way beyond their knowledge21:39
piperjonI think you may be right.21:39
piperjonI took a quick gander at that website you sent, it is SO much less terrifying than the other I'd found.  No kernel update or anything. Woo!21:40
piperjonI super do appreciate your help!21:40
leaftypein the ubuntu land, it's generally safer to stick to the long term support releases (LTS). They come out every 2 years, and they're supported for 5 years each21:40
leaftype22.04 is going to be like that21:40
leaftypewhich is what you're updating to :)21:40
piperjonExcellent, that makes me happy.  By then I should be able to hold my own in the Ubuntu world, I'd like to think.21:41
piperjonMeanwhile time for me to roll. I am very grateful for your help today, if I had a Venosaur Rare Holo Shadowless I would totally share with you.  :)21:42
leaftypesure thing :)21:42
piperjonTTFN21:42
mparilloThe LTS core packages are supported for five years, but I believe all the DEs supported by the Flavours are only supported for three years.23:00
