IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> Heyy,04:11
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> I just updated it04:11
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> this is how my desktop look line ,πŸ˜”,but now it's not showing top bar : https://irc-attachments.kde.org/4dd2a52b/file_59945.jpg04:31
arraybolt3@milesdredd I'm missing what's wrong, is there supposed to be something in the screenshot that's now missing?04:34
arraybolt3@milesdredd: If it's just the missing top bar, try right-clicking on your desktop and adding a new Kubuntu Default Panel.04:34
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> i cant able to right click on desktop (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3> @milesdredd: If it's just the missing top bar, try right-clicking on your desktop and adding a new Kubuntu Default Panel.)04:35
arraybolt3@milesdredd: What happens if you press Ctrl+Alt+T?04:35
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> i hv shared a video , but due to slow net is just going .... (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3> @milesdredd: If it's just the missing top bar, try right-clicking on your desktop and adding a new Kubuntu Default Panel.)04:35
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> wait (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3> @milesdredd: What happens if you press Ctrl+Alt+T?)04:35
arraybolt3Ah, OK, I'll wait.04:35
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> umm , i know it's shortcut to open konsol , but it's changed somehow ,(my mistake)04:37
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> but i have downloaded latte dock which is working , so i can open konsol easily (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3> Ah, OK, I'll wait.)04:37
arraybolt3Nice. Does it show up?04:37
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> what?? (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3> Nice. Does it show up?)04:37
arraybolt3I mean, if you open Konsole, does it appear on the screen?04:38
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> yess (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3> I mean, if you open Konsole, does it appear on the screen?)04:38
arraybolt3OK, try running "systemsettings".04:38
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> ok04:38
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> yea , done04:39
arraybolt3That should open a settings window. Hopefully you should be able to fix the problem from there.04:39
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> opened setting04:39
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> noo ,  i dont know how to solve it (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3> That should open a settings window. Hopefully you should be able to fix the problem from there.)04:39
arraybolt3Once the video comes through, I may be able to tell you what settings to change.04:39
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> ok , 7.8/8.9 mb uploaded (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3> Once the video comes through, I may be able to tell you what settings to change.)04:40
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> here's video (re @milesdredd: )04:40
arraybolt3Oh great. It's not coming through for me (I'm on IRC, you're bridged from Telegram to IRC). Maybe you can try uploading it to Imgur if it lets you do that?04:41
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> ooops , again i hv to upload πŸ˜”04:41
arraybolt3The video needs to be 60 seconds or shorter to upload to Imgur, once uploaded, send the link.04:42
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> umm , can i try google drive ? (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3> The video needs to be 60 seconds or shorter to upload to Imgur, once uploaded, send the link.)04:43
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> from there i can send u link of longer video04:43
arraybolt3Yeah, sure.04:43
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> ok thanks04:43
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> https://drive.google.com/file/d/198x4WoaxUUBaQ0Sj4RbB_pRN_-kYocfA/view?usp=drivesdk (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3> Yeah, sure.)04:46
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> pls see04:47
arraybolt3@milesdredd: Google is taking a while to process it now, so I'm still not quite able to view it, and my video player didn't like it, so it may be a bit.04:48
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> can u see screenshot ?04:48
arraybolt3Yeah, but on the screenshot, I can't tell what's gone wrong.04:49
arraybolt3To me it looks normal, so hopefully the video will show up the problem better.04:49
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> yea , coz it ss of prev day (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3> To me it looks normal, so hopefully the video will show up the problem better.)04:49
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> ok wait04:49
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> see : https://irc-attachments.kde.org/344776f2/file_59948.jpg04:50
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> in this , plasma is just transparent04:51
arraybolt3Oh, good grief. That showed it up.04:51
arraybolt3What in the world...?04:51
arraybolt3Try running "kwin_x11 --replace".04:52
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> ok (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3> Try running "kwin_x11 --replace".)04:52
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> world? (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3> What in the world...?)04:52
arraybolt3It's an expression of surprise. I've never seen Kubuntu look that bad before that I can remember.04:52
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> ohhhπŸ˜…04:52
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> milesdredd@milesdredd-k-notebook:~$ kwin_x11 --replace04:54
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> OpenGL vendor string:                   AMD04:54
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> OpenGL renderer string:                 AMD KABINI (LLVM 13.0.1, DRM 2.50, 5.15.0-27-generic)04:54

arraybolt3@milesdredd: Umm... can you not paste output from commands like that? It triggers a bot in here to mute you for about 60 seconds, and then I can't see anything else you type for that time.04:54
arraybolt3(If you want to share command output, try using a pastebin website like bpa.st.)04:54
arraybolt3Once the bot unmutes you, I'll let you know.04:55
arraybolt3Hmm, it still has you muted. Sorry about the inconvenience. Hopefully this shouldn't be much longer.04:57
arraybolt3Ah, there it goes. You are unmuted.04:57
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> ok04:57
arraybolt3Did anything improve after running that command?04:57
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> no (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3> Did anything improve after running that command?)04:57
arraybolt3Hmm. Well, this is probably silly, but did you try shutting down and turning your computer back on again?04:58
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> still same , and now , wallpaper changed and its a screenshot of what i m doing now (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3> Did anything improve after running that command?)04:58
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> yea already tried (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3> Hmm. Well, this is probably silly, but did you try shutting down and turning your computer back on again?)04:58
arraybolt3Hmm. OK, press Ctrl+C in Konsole to stop kwin. This may make your display look even more broken, but it's OK, we're about to try and fix it.04:59
arraybolt3Once that's done, run "systemsettings" again, and search for "user".04:59
arraybolt3Then try and make a new user account. Once that's done, shut down the computer, turn back on, and log into the new user account.04:59
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> after stopping kwin? (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3> Once that's done, run "systemsettings" again, and search for "user".)04:59
arraybolt3Yes, after stopping kwin.04:59
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> ok05:00
arraybolt3Also, when you make the new user account, make it an administrator.05:02
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> I already have another user05:04
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> With administration privilege (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3> Also, when you make the new user account, make it an administrator.)05:04
arraybolt3Yes.05:04
arraybolt3Ah, OK. Then log into that one.05:04
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> Ok05:04
arraybolt3If everything looks normal there, then the problem is probably your user account's configuration.05:05
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> Ohh then how to reset config?05:05
arraybolt3And if that's the case, we can probably repair it, but I'm getting really tired (I've had a long day) and probably can't help with that tonight. However, you should be able to keep using your computer now, and we can finish fixing things tomorrow.05:06
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> Okk , just logging into another user ,05:07
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> Gimme me few sec05:07
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> Yea here its working05:07
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> What should i do?05:07
arraybolt3Nice. You should still be able to access your old user's files by going to /home/<old username here> in Dolphin.05:07
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> Hiw to change plasma config ?05:08
arraybolt3That part's tricky. You probably have some extension or something installed that's messing things up, but I don't know how to uninstall those.05:09
arraybolt3I'd try to migrate your data from the old user account to the new one.05:09
arraybolt3*copy your data, I mean05:09
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> I hmm05:09
arraybolt3Once you're certain you got all the data you need, leave everything for like a week or so, so that if you forgot something you have time to remember.05:09
arraybolt3Then once you have absolutely everything (including passwords saved in your browser and things like that), you can delete the old account.05:10
arraybolt3*have absolutely everything copied over05:10
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> Its difficult , i will try to solve plasma instead (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3> *have absolutely everything copied over)05:10
arraybolt3OK. I'm too tired to try to help with that tonight, but maybe we can try tomorrow?05:11
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> Okok05:11
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> Thank (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3> OK. I'm too tired to try to help with that tonight, but maybe we can try tomorrow?)05:11
arraybolt3Sure. Sorry to have to delay things.05:11
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> No problem πŸ‘05:12
arraybolt3If you can remember what you did last just before things went wrong, that may help. And if the last thing you did was an update, try to remember the last thing(s) you did before that.05:12
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> Ig , from discover , i can remove addons05:12
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> Noo before update it was running fine , (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3> If you can remember what you did last just before things went wrong, that may help. And if the last thing you did was an update, try to remember the last thing(s) you did before that.)05:12
arraybolt3Then I would guess something went really wrong with an addon then.05:13
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> Hmm05:13
arraybolt3(I just installed updates on a KDE system today or maybe earlier, and it didn't end up looking like that after it was done.)05:14
arraybolt3And since it all works right on a different user, that makes me especially suspicious of any add-ons that were installed on the broken user account.05:15
arraybolt3If you have any important data in the add-ons, make sure to save that data before removing them. (I don't know if that's even possible to have important data inside an add-on, but if it is, back it up.)05:16
arraybolt3*make backups of that data, I mean05:17
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> Okk05:17
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> Heyyy, uts plasma 5.25 , means newer one right?05:22
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> In which we cam make plasma float ?πŸ₯³05:22
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> Still it not showing for me , but i will try to figure it out05:22
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> https://irc-attachments.kde.org/4b075fed/file_59949.jpg05:22
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> Yeaaaa its new05:22
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> I m so happy ,05:22
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> But its not working πŸ˜”05:22
arraybolt3@milesdredd: Plasma 5.25 is... buggy. So buggy that even Manjaro, a rolling-release distro, chose to not upgrade to it if I'm understanding correctly.05:23
arraybolt3So I really would **not** recommend trying to upgrade your system to using Plamsa 5.25.05:24
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> Yea , i also listened that ,05:24
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> But i was unaware tht i m updating to it05:24
arraybolt3You already have updated to it?05:24
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> Yea05:24
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> Its done 🐱 (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3> So I really would **not** recommend trying to upgrade your system to using Plamsa 5.25.)05:25
arraybolt3Like, your system just automatically installed it? Hmm, what PPA did you add to your system that made it do that?05:25
arraybolt3I mean, I guess if it's there now, you probably shouldn't try to downgrade, or else something else might break.05:25
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> Yea once i searched in google ,05:25
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> It suggested a ppa ,so i did that way (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3> Like, your system just automatically installed it? Hmm, what PPA did you add to your system that made it do that?)05:25
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> Yea (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3> I mean, I guess if it's there now, you probably shouldn't try to downgrade, or else something else might break.)05:25
arraybolt3But in the future, it's probably best to not install experimental PPAs and stuff like that on a system that you use for real work. You can use virtual machines to experiment with stuff if you want to without risking your computer's usability.05:26
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> Yeaa , i was curious to see new plasma πŸ₯²πŸ˜… ,05:27
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> So i did05:27
arraybolt3But still, I would leave the PPA and everything in place until you can back up your data and reinstall Kubuntu entirely. If and when you choose to do that, make sure to back up stuff like browser passwords and other "hidden" but important data.05:27
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> Ah , no problem , i will wait to fix it , i will try reseting plasma , and i will remove all addons to fix this05:28
IrcsomeBot<milesdredd> I m not going to install again05:28
arraybolt3OK.05:28
arraybolt3Google Drive is **still** processing that video :P05:30

arraybolt3@milesdredd: Congratulations!09:17
IrcsomeBot<PJtunes> Any answer to this please?πŸ‘† (re @PJtunes: It's been a week I left my software update on "manually"09:54
IrcsomeBot<PJtunes> And I haven't manually downloaded any of the recent updates, hope there'll be no repercussions to this???)09:54
arraybolt3@PJtunes: Leaving a system out-of-date leaves bugs and open security vulnerabilities on your system, potentially risking you getting hacked.10:19
arraybolt3@PJtunes: The longer you leave the updates unapplied, the greater the risk.10:19

Guest2949Anyone here to help me?13:42
alkisgCheck /var/log/Xorg.0.log.log,  ~/.xsession-errors and dmesg for errors13:50
Guest2949I checked but, as I'm new to Linux family I was unable to understand14:01
Guest2949Now I don't have any problem, but fear has been generated in my mind that anytime it can happen14:03
alkisgYou can upload them to some pastebin right after the problem happens, and ask here for someone to take a look14:03
Guest2949Also as far as I remember I had only 2-3 programs running (chrome, vscode, discord)14:03
Guest2949Can I upload now?14:03

IrcsomeBot<PJtunes> Whenever I open my lid(monitor) it automatically switches on the PC and I don't like it that way, I've toggled through settings but can't find an option to undo that18:45
mmikowskiPjtunes: Perhaps check your bios. There isn't anything under System Settings > Power Management > Energy Savings, but that makes sense since the power-button event that is turning the device on is coming from the EFI or BIOS.18:51
IrcsomeBot<PJtunes> Ok19:29
IrcsomeBot<PJtunes> But where is the BIOS located19:29
arraybolt3@PJtunes: Depends on your computer - you usually press a certain key during early startup to get into it.19:30
arraybolt3A lot of times "Esc" will do the trick, during very early boot.19:30
OerHekscan be F10 .. see your manual of the desktop/laptop19:32
IrcsomeBot<PJtunes> Alright I'll check it out19:33

Esteban_15-9-22Hi23:23
Esteban_15-9-22I have a problem with kubuntu, seems like kactivitymanagerd process is writing a lot of data in my disk and filling it up until there is no space left. More than 40 gb being writtenΒ  in a few minutes.23:27
Esteban_15-9-22the system don't work after that of course23:28
* genii ponders https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45357023:37
ubottuKDE bug 453570 in frameworks-kactivities "activitymanagerd created database which took 80 GB in file system" [Normal, Assigned]23:37
Esteban-15-9-22It took me 40GB all the free space that I have23:41
geniiEsteban-15-9-22: I would probably do the process this Manjaro user did at the end of this page https://forum.manjaro.org/t/kactivitymanagerd-filling-up-all-free-space/111826/923:43
genii( console login, stop sddm,  clean out it's files, etc)23:44
Esteban-15-9-22I deleted the file and restarted but the issue come again. I think something relating with Telegram-desktop is happening (can it be) because now I didnt open it and all is going well23:44
=== mkv is now known as m4v
Esteban-15-9-22will check that out, thnks Genii23:45
geniiEsteban-15-9-22: In the KDE bug report the user also had some System Settings in Activities about "Activities -> Privacy: Keep history: Forever" set, might want to check that out also23:46
Esteban-15-9-22I'll do that, sure!23:47
Esteban-15-9-22what type of data save this feature?23:50
Esteban-15-9-22seems like setting just one month of history solved the issue. Thanks!23:58
