| IrcsomeBot | <Predeterminado> Hello, good afternoon Kubuntu staff, how's it going? I've been a Kubuntu user for two days now, my first time with this distribution, I've been using LMDE 5 on another computer and I switched to Kubuntu because of driver problems. | 00:02 |
|---|---|---|
| IrcsomeBot | <Predeterminado> Lately I get some updates that after being installed still appear in loop, does it happen to anyone else, should I be worried? | 00:02 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Predeterminado> Regards. | 00:02 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Predeterminado> I can't send screenshots until tomorrow | 00:03 |

| IrcsomeBot | <Ginomfs> I cannot access my vault anymore after my kubuntu 22.04 froze and had to do a hard reboot. Any way to access my vault again, correct password does not work. Only the last file i had open is available but not in the vault. Also tried TImeshift to a few days ago but still not luck. The error is...Failed to open: The mount point directory is not empty, refusing to open vault. and...Failed to open: Unable to perform the operation (error code 12 | 12:34 |

| Guest72 | which is good kubuntu or kde neon? | 12:45 |
| IrcsomeBot | <lord chencho> Why I get "ethernet connection is limited"? but I can navigate whitout problems | 13:08 |
| BluesKaj | Hi all | 13:08 |
| IrcsomeBot | <lord chencho> Differences are meaningless but you don't need to restart the computer in every update on kubuntu (re @IrcsomeBot: <Guest72> which is good kubuntu or kde neon?) | 13:09 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Omar> + how can i burn a bootable iso to a partition | 14:52 |
| IrcsomeBot | <ykruH> https://github.com/WoeUSB/WoeUSB-ng (re @Omar: + how can i burn a bootable iso to a partition) | 15:19 |
| IrcsomeBot | <ykruH> dd and mark it as bootable ? not sure, I always write it to the whole device, not a partition | 15:20 |
| alkisg1 | Omar, you can't, boot loaders are installed to disks, not to partitions (long story made short) | 15:39 |
| alkisg1 | If you have grub in your disk, then you can tell your existing grub to load anything from anywhere, but it's your existing grub that will load first | 15:39 |
| alkisg1 | UEFI/BIOS can't boot partitions, it can only boot disks | 15:39 |
| user|69 | i instald kubuntu 1504 on a dell comp. the wifi do not work | 15:51 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Omar> My device is 64 gigs so it is a waste of space (re @ykruH: dd and mark it as bootable ? not sure, I always write it to the whole device, not a partition) | 15:51 |
| user|69 | just on a partition | 15:52 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Omar> No way around it? (re @IrcsomeBot: <alkisg1> Omar, you can't, boot loaders are installed to disks, not to partitions (long story made short)) | 15:53 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Omar> Ahaa (re @IrcsomeBot: <alkisg1> UEFI/BIOS can't boot partitions, it can only boot disks) | 15:53 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Omar> Ok ok | 15:53 |
| user|69 | how can i find what device is in my comp for wifi | 15:53 |
| alkisg1 | Omar, there are many ways to boot from partitions, but no ways to make UEFI/BIOS boot a partition | 15:53 |
| alkisg1 | user|69, try this: lsusb | nc termbin.com 9999 | 15:54 |
| alkisg1 | Tell us the URL it shows | 15:54 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Omar> Ok thank you (re @IrcsomeBot: <alkisg1> Omar, there are many ways to boot from partitions, but no ways to make UEFI/BIOS boot a partition) | 15:54 |
| alkisg1 | user|69, kubuntu 15.04 is 7 years old, are you sure you don't mean 22.04? | 15:55 |
| user|69 | no my comp is a 32 bit | 15:56 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Omar> Ok so what is the pest filesystem for a USB flash? | 15:56 |
| IrcsomeBot | <ykruH> Do you want to write a linux ISO to it ? | 15:56 |
| IrcsomeBot | <ykruH> then simply dd the iso file to the entire device | 15:57 |
| alkisg1 | Omar, one way is to dd the iso. That is probably the most compatible way, but you won't be able to write anything else in that stick. | 15:58 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Omar> Yeah (re @ykruH: Do you want to write a linux ISO to it ?) | 15:58 |
| alkisg1 | Other ways are to use special programs like ventoy, which support putting multiple isos to the same stick, AND your documents | 15:58 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Omar> Can i install linux on a new laptop with this? (re @IrcsomeBot: <alkisg1> Omar, one way is to dd the iso. That is probably the most compatible way, but you won't be able to write anything else in that stick.) | 15:58 |
| alkisg1 | Yes, you can | 15:59 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Omar> That is all i want (re @IrcsomeBot: <alkisg1> Yes, you can) | 15:59 |
| alkisg1 | 👍️ | 15:59 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Omar> So haw to do this dd thing | 15:59 |
| alkisg1 | Insert your stick and type: sudo lsblk --fs | nc termbin.com 9999 | 15:59 |
| alkisg1 | So that we tell you how to umount it and which device to use | 16:00 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Omar> https://termbin.com/tznm | 16:02 |
| alkisg1 | OK so your stick is sdb, and is not mounted | 16:03 |
| alkisg1 | (make sure that's not a second internal disk!) | 16:03 |
| alkisg1 | So the command would be: sudo dd if=/path/to/disk.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=4M status=progress | 16:03 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Omar> it is working | 16:08 |
| alkisg1 | When it finishes, to unplug it, run: sync; udisksctl power-off -b /dev/sdb | 16:08 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Omar> Error looking up object for device /dev/sdb | 16:13 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Omar> this is the output | 16:14 |
| alkisg1 | Output of what, the udisksctl command or the dd command? | 16:15 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Omar> udisksctl | 16:15 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Omar> this is for the dd https://termbin.com/rq3z (re @IrcsomeBot: <alkisg1> Output of what, the udisksctl command or the dd command?) | 16:17 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Ginomfs> bash: /home/the-divine/.config/plasmavaultrc: Permission denied (re @IrcsomeBot: <genii> What directory does ~/.config/plasmavaultrc say is the mountpoint? ... check to see if something is in there and if so then move it somewhere else...) | 16:17 |
| alkisg1 | Omar, pastebin the output of: (sudo lsblk --fs; sudo dmesg | tail; sudo udisksctl power-off -b /dev/sdb) 2>&1 | nc termbin.com 9999 | 16:19 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Omar> should i first plug it or unplug it ? | 16:20 |
| alkisg1 | If it's unplugged, there's no point to unmounted it with udisksctl anymore :) | 16:21 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Omar> https://termbin.com/wndq | 16:22 |
| alkisg1 | Omar, looks good, try to boot with it | 16:46 |
| IrcsomeBot | <GrayWeek> Hi all, Is kubuntu officially supported by canonical lik Ubuntu? | 17:01 |
| alkisg1 | Ubuntu isn't officially supported by Canonical. Only the "main" component is | 17:02 |
| alkisg1 | It's the same for Kubuntu, only the "main" component is; which leaves out the whole desktop environment, but it includes the kernel, firefox etc etc | 17:02 |
| alkisg1 | (a default ubuntu installation only has software from main though; but real installations rarely do) | 17:03 |
| alkisg1 | So most of the other programs are in "universe" and are supported by the community | 17:05 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Omar> My laptop battery has died i will come again in other day (re @IrcsomeBot: <alkisg1> Omar, looks good, try to boot with it) | 17:09 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Omar> But i think it toke the hole flash not just the 4 gigs partition | 17:10 |
| alkisg1 | Omar, yes, dd'ing to a disk erases the whole disk | 17:10 |
| alkisg1 | Ah so you didn't want to "make a partition bootable", you wanted to "avoid deleting one partition" | 17:11 |
| alkisg1 | I didn't understand that, not sure if anyone else understood it.... | 17:11 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Omar> I think i missexplained what i wanted (re @IrcsomeBot: <alkisg1> Omar, yes, dd'ing to a disk erases the whole disk) | 17:12 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Omar> Im sorry i didn't explain well (re @IrcsomeBot: <alkisg1> I didn't understand that, not sure if anyone else understood it....) | 17:12 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Omar> I wanted to make a bootable partition | 17:13 |
| alkisg1 | No, you wanted to put the disk in the usb disk without deleting one of its partitions | 17:14 |
| alkisg1 | It's a completely different thing | 17:14 |
| alkisg1 | *iso disk in the usb stick | 17:14 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Omar> Is it possible? | 17:15 |
| alkisg1 | It's already deleted now | 17:16 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Omar> I know | 17:16 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Omar> I will format it and make a partition again i need the space | 17:17 |
| alkisg1 | As I said, you can use ventoy or similar software to create a stick with one or more partitions, with bootable .iso files, and with free space | 17:17 |
| alkisg1 | Go to https://www.ventoy.net/en/index.html and have a read | 17:18 |
| IrcsomeBot | <nomislou> Hi, unfortunately I don't know English well and generally use a translator. But okay. The system began to take a lot of RAM. Literally 2/3 GB | 17:21 |
| IrcsomeBot | <nomislou> What should I do? | 17:21 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Omar> Ok thank you very much (re @IrcsomeBot: <alkisg1> Go to https://www.ventoy.net/en/index.html and have a read) | 17:24 |
| IrcsomeBot | <ykruH> I have an audio problem with Plasma, I am using the Digital Stereo (IEC958) Output and it works for some time until it reverts to Analog Stereo Duplex for no apparent reason, I think it is related to the the autodetect feature on this soundcard. Anyone knows a solution ? | 18:15 |
| mmikowski | Schmo> I ran Ubuntu, Kubuntu, and W10. I also tested Xubuntu and even Manjaro. I was able to move with track pad and arrow keys after boot from W10, but not the others. < Sounds like kernel issue here then, since XFCE and SDDM also failed to work (apparently). You can run your hardware through linux-hardware.org and see what they say. Best of luck to you,. | 23:19 |
