ElliriaHey there. I'm not getting any response in the #kde-bugs channel. Does anyone in here know how to edit the summary section of a KDE bug report?01:51
IrcsomeBot<Omar> Hi, flatpak is asking to download big packages for a small app06:53
IrcsomeBot<SA> Hello my PC has had this problem for a long time, when I turn on the beeps and after a short time the fan starts to run at full speed. I found this in the BIOS page: 6 short sounds08:53
IrcsomeBot<SA> Keyboard module on motherboard08:53
IrcsomeBot<SA> Connect another keyboard. In case of permanent error: Replace the main circuit board. I tried this with the change of the keyboard, it's still like that. If I turn off the PC a few times and turn it on, the problem goes away. Does anyone have an idea what it could be?08:53

arraybolt3[m]user|82: Welcome to the official Kubuntu Support Channel. Please remain on-topic.15:59
pickanickHello I am using Kubuntu 22.04.  The ethernet has started to fail to connect. It cycles from "Setting Network Address" -> "Connection ... deactivated"   Wired Interface : "IP configuration was unavailable"16:06
pickanickI could submit a png screenshot of the popups, perhaps someone might recognize the problem?16:06
kksilveryDid you use Wi-Fi network?16:09
pickanickThis was the ethernet wired connection. What about wifi?16:14
pickanickWifi is working but is constantly being reset, can see https://dpaste.com/ARMVMNKYY for iwlwifi errors in dmesg16:15
pickanickI do not know whether these two problems are related.16:16

kksilveryNo.17:12
kksilveryTry Wi-Fi network. There must be a problem with the network driver. May I know the specs?17:12
arraybolt3[m]pickanick: Did this only just recently start happening?17:24
arraybolt3[m]I've had similar problems that I was able to resolve by removing the network interface in Connections - System Settings, then re-adding it.17:25
arraybolt3[m](If it's always been broken, that obviously won't work, but if it used to work and now doesn't, that might be worth a shot.)17:25
arraybolt3[m]If you need to get into the Connections settings, click your network icon, then click the settings icon in the upper-right corner of the pop-up display.17:27
kksilveryNoted17:41
kksilveryI think, he is offline.17:42
pickanickI'm back18:01
kksilveryWelcome back!18:01
kksilveryDid you take notes of what ArrayBolt shared here?18:01
=== wodencafe is now known as wodencafedesade
pickanickThe unsuccessful connection is new yesterday, although in retrospect there were random disconnections that I  assumed with the fault of my ISP or their hardware. I did delete the wired ethernet interface, and re-added it, to no avail.18:03
=== wodencafedesade is now known as WodenCafeDeSade
kksilverySad!18:04
kksilveryCan you share the PC specs?18:04
pickanickspecifically which specs?18:05
kksilveryYour PC or laptop specifications?18:07
pickanicki9900 64GB etc ?18:07
pickanickIt's a dell 7070 micro , worked more or less for two years, but with periodic freezing of USB keyboard and mouse, Dell just replaced the motherboard Friday, it seemed to work Saturday, and Sunday the ethernet and wifi went crazy.18:08
pickanickethernet is on the motherboard, wifi is I believe a removable chip that was not replaced, only transferred to new MB.18:10
pickanickI did an apt update shortly before the MB replacement: Commandline: apt upgrade; Install: systemd-hwe-hwdb:amd64 (249.11.1, automatic); Upgrade: udev:amd64 (249.11-0ubuntu3.4, 249.11-0ubuntu3.6), systemd-timesyncd:amd64 (249.11-0ubuntu3.4, 249.11-0ubuntu3.6), libpam-systemd:amd64 (249.11-0ubuntu3.4, 249.11-0ubuntu3.6), libsystemd0:amd64 (249.11-0ubuntu3.4, 249.11-0ubuntu3.6), libnss-systemd:amd64  (249.11-0ubuntu3.4, 249.11-0ubuntu3.6), systemd:amd64 (249.11-18:12
pickanick0ubuntu3.4, 249.11-0ubuntu3.6), libudev1:amd64 (249.11-0ubuntu3.4, 249.11-0ubuntu3.6), systemd-sysv:amd64 (249.11-0ubuntu3.4, 249.11-0ubuntu3.6), libspeechd2:amd64 (0.11.1-1ubuntu1, 0.11.1-1ubuntu2)18:12
pickanickHow do I roll back an apt update just to eliminate this variable?18:14
pickanickkksilvery: I'm not sure what level of spec detail would be helpful.18:15
kksilveryhttps://askubuntu.com/questions/247549/is-it-possible-to-undo-an-apt-get-install-command18:15
kksilveryYou can roll back the updates manually!18:15
kksilveryOptiPlex 7070 Micro desktop is an amazing PC.18:16
pickanickYes, but it has been annoying with random freezes before and now this ethernet failure and iwlwifi hardware resets18:19
pickanickapt-undo upgrade ?18:19
pickanickUnable to locate package apt-undo18:19
pickanickhmm would need to use ppa:lkjoel/apt-undo , according to an answer from 2013.18:21
kksilverysudo apt-get autoremove18:21
kksilveryRepeat the command until the network works.18:21
kksilveryYou can update the software any time:)18:21
kksilveryI tried the 'sudo apt-get autoremove' in my laptop.18:22
pickanickautoremove is used to remove packages that were automatically installed to satisfy dependencies for other packages and are now no longer needed.18:22
kksilveryIt works.18:22
kksilveryTry it.18:22
pickanick0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.18:22
kksilveryDo one thing. Flash the Ubuntu 22.04 LTS in a flash drive. And run the software in demo mode.18:23
kksilveryFind out whether the network is working smoothly on the demo version.18:23
kksilveryThen update the software in the demo version. Find out how the latest updates affects the network functions.18:24
pickanickgreat idea. Can you remind me how to install required firmware on first boot?18:24
RocketSkatesThat is a great idea.18:25
kksilveryAre you talking about flashing the OS in the USB drive?18:25
pickanickI assume the plan is to boot the live USB OS. Then may have to install wifi and other drivers18:27
kksilveryUbuntu will install or use the basic drivers. You don't have to install network drivers in Linux OS :)18:28
kksilveryI never installed a proprietary driver in my Core i3 11th gen laptop, and older computers.18:28
pickanickI reckon it's not your hair that's silvery ;)  Will try18:29
kksilverySilvery is a 400 years old name bestowed by an Indian King :)18:30
pickanickHere goes...18:30
pickhmm the wired connection is never used, how to turn it on?18:33
=== pick is now known as pickanick
pickanickthe wired connection is "never used", how to turn it on?18:34
kksilveryAre you on Ubuntu?18:35
pickanickKubuntu 22.04 USB18:35
kksilveryTry Ubuntu sir :(18:35
kksilveryWe don't know if this is an issue with KDE only.18:36
kksilvery1. If the network works with Ubuntu, then there is a problem with KDE.18:36
kksilvery2. If the network fails to work on Ubuntu, then we have a faulty network chip.18:36
kksilvery3. Try Wi-Fi.18:37
pickanickactually with a different cable and different router jack/port Ethernet is working off Kubuntu USB. However the iwlwifi Microcore  SW errors are detected.18:45
pickanickwired Ethernet appears stable. So this suggests some software setting or update to blame. will try Ubuntu next.18:46
kksilveryI never faced internet issues with Kubutu LTS on my AMD A4 (2014) notebook.18:48
kksilveryI have installed Ubuntu 22.04 LTS on Realme Slim Core i3 11-gen notebook.18:48
kksilveryI noticed a couple of UI bugs, but I never had network issues, or any other issues.18:49
kksilveryGo for Ubuntu. I recommend what I tried or use.18:49
pickanickthanks, booting18:51
pickanickok so Ethernet works also, and WiFi card has the same Microcode SW errors and "ieee80211 phy0 hardware restart was requested"18:59
kksilveryThere's some issue with the network chip.19:00
=== Lord_of_Life_ is now known as Lord_of_Life
pickanickit worked before. the tech was fumbling with it to put it back, I'm going to try to remove and clean the contacts.19:01
kksilveryI recommend you to buy Wi-Fi USB dongle as an affordable solution, if you don't want to go through repairs.19:01
kksilveryLike I said, the network chip might be dying, and it's showing signs of failure.19:02
kksilveryI never faced this issue on my PC, laptop and notebooks. LAN and Wi-Fi network worked flawlessly.19:03
pickanickhowever the Ethernet Jack is fine, but there must be something wrong with the current state of the OS19:03
kksilveryDownload https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/sku/82185/intel-ethernet-connection-i219lm/downloads.html19:06
kksilveryChoose Linux and install the IntelĀ® Ethernet Adapter Complete Driver Pack19:06
kksilveryI hope, this will resolve the issue.19:06
pickanickThank you I will try this, but cannot do it immediately.19:12
kksilveryGood luck Pick A Nick buddy.19:13
