 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.
 Lately I get some updates that after being installed still appear in loop, does it happen to anyone else, should I be worried?
 Regards.
 I can't send screenshots until tomorrow
 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

[12:45] <Guest72> which is good kubuntu or kde neon?
[13:08] <BluesKaj> Hi all
 + how can i burn a bootable  iso to a partition
 https://github.com/WoeUSB/WoeUSB-ng (re @Omar: + how can i burn a bootable  iso to a partition)
 dd and mark it as bootable ? not sure, I always write it to the whole device, not a partition
[15:39] <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
[15:51] <user|69> i instald kubuntu 1504 on a dell comp. the wifi do not work
 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)
[15:52] <user|69> just on a partition
 No way around it? (re @IrcsomeBot: <alkisg1> Omar, you can't, boot loaders are installed to disks, not to partitions (long story made short))
 Ahaa (re @IrcsomeBot: <alkisg1> UEFI/BIOS can't boot partitions, it can only boot disks)
 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
[15:54] <alkisg1> user|69, try this: lsusb | nc termbin.com 9999
[15:54] <alkisg1> Tell us the URL it shows
 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)
[15:55] <alkisg1> user|69, kubuntu 15.04 is 7 years old, are you sure you don't mean 22.04?
[15:56] <user|69> no my comp is a 32 bit
 Ok so what is the pest filesystem for a USB flash?
 Do you want to write a linux ISO to it ?
 then simply dd the iso file to the entire device
[15:58] <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.
 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
 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.)
[15:59] <alkisg1> Yes, you can
 That is all i want (re @IrcsomeBot: <alkisg1> Yes, you can)
[15:59] <alkisg1> 👍️
 So haw to do this dd thing
[15:59] <alkisg1> Insert your stick and type: sudo lsblk --fs | nc termbin.com 9999
[16:00] <alkisg1> So that we tell you how to umount it and which device to use
 https://termbin.com/tznm
[16:03] <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
 it is working
[16:08] <alkisg1> When it finishes, to unplug it, run: sync; udisksctl power-off -b /dev/sdb
 Error looking up object for device /dev/sdb
 this is the output
[16:15] <alkisg1> Output of what, the udisksctl command or the dd command?
 udisksctl
 this is for the dd https://termbin.com/rq3z (re @IrcsomeBot: <alkisg1> Output of what, the udisksctl command or the dd command?)
 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...)
[16:19] <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
 should i first plug it or unplug it  ?
[16:21] <alkisg1> If it's unplugged, there's no point to unmounted it with udisksctl anymore :)

[16:46] <alkisg1> Omar, looks good, try to boot with it
 Hi all, Is kubuntu officially supported by canonical lik Ubuntu?
[17:02] <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
[17:03] <alkisg1> (a default ubuntu installation only has software from main though; but real installations rarely do)
[17:05] <alkisg1> So most of the other programs are in "universe" and are supported by the community
 My laptop battery has died i will come again in other day (re @IrcsomeBot: <alkisg1> Omar, looks good, try to boot with it)
 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
[17:11] <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....
 I think i missexplained what i wanted (re @IrcsomeBot: <alkisg1> Omar, yes, dd'ing to a disk erases the whole disk)
 Im sorry i didn't explain well (re @IrcsomeBot: <alkisg1> I didn't understand that, not sure if anyone else understood it....)
 I wanted to make a bootable partition
[17:14] <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
 Is it possible?
[17:16] <alkisg1> It's already deleted now
 I know
 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
[17:18] <alkisg1> Go to https://www.ventoy.net/en/index.html and have a read
 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
 What should I do?
 Ok thank you very much (re @IrcsomeBot: <alkisg1> Go to https://www.ventoy.net/en/index.html and have a read)
 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 ?
[23:19] <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,.
