[13:52] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[14:40] <mparillo> No problems so far for me (other than proprietary HW) on LL.
 Hi I want to know how to access the folder with lock on it : https://irc-attachments.kde.org/8251193d/file_62925.jpg
[17:13] <user|5> hello..
[17:13] <user|5> i just installed kubuntu and left screen. now password for live session user is required ...
[17:14] <user|5> i never filled any formulars...
[17:14] <user|5> whatcis the default password ? newest version.january 23... ?
[17:16] <alkisg> Try: kubuntu
[17:16] <alkisg> Wait, installed? Or live session?
[17:17] <arraybolt3> On a live session, the password should be blank - just hit Enter and it should let you in.
[17:18] <user|518> hello. i just installed newes kubuntu version not lts...
[17:19] <user|518> left screen and now password for live session user is required...never filled in name or password.please help...thx
[17:23] <user|518> tried standards ... admin.Admin.kubuntu.KUBUNTU...left it blanked(just Enter Key) and many more
[17:27] <alkisg> user|518: you installed kubuntu but you haven't rebooted yet and you're still in the live session?
[17:28] <user|518> i created an bootable stick with tool rufus via windows... with persistend option...
[17:28] <user|518> booted and choose try
[17:29] <user|518> voila...screen ... i wouldxsay desktop...
[17:29] <user|518> left screen and now password is required
[17:29] <alkisg> What happens if you type Ctrl+Alt+F3, do you get a text prompt to login? What does that say?
[17:30] <user|518> nothing. short blinking. and curser in fiel password
[17:31] <alkisg> If you press enter there, does it ask you for a user name?
[17:31] <user|518> there is an option benutzer wechseln...change user
[17:31] <alkisg> In Ctrl+Alt+F3? Then try Ctrl+Alt+F4, to get to the text prompt to login
[17:32] <user|518> but same thing. password is needed there too
[17:32] <alkisg> When you get there, try kubuntu/blank
[17:32] <user|518> not working
[17:32] <alkisg> Yes but the screensaver might have some other issue; while if it's not working there, then it's certain you do have a password set
[17:33] <user|518> ok.thx. i will start again and make a new stick. thx for help. nice evening
[17:34] <alkisg> You can install kubuntu to the stick
[17:34] <alkisg> There's no need to make weird "live iso with persistence" things...
[17:34] <user|518> its a bootable stick.
[17:34] <alkisg> Yes, if you install kubuntu to the stick it will be bootable
[17:36] <user|518> on my laptop is windows 11...ubuntu...and gaming station batocera...triple boot ... thats enough... so i wanted a persistan linux distribution changeable and bootable ony on stick not on laptop itself.... maybe you have other ditribution ideas or names for me...
[17:37] <alkisg> You can install kubuntu to the stick. Without using the disk of the laptop.
[17:37] <alkisg> Then that stick will boot in any pc or laptop, and it will have persistance etc
[17:37] <alkisg> It's like installing to a disk, except that you install to the stick, you select it as the installation target
[17:38] <alkisg> You boot from one stick, and you select to install any distribution to a second stick. The hard disk of the laptop isn't touched by this process.
[17:43] <user|518> i tried the f3 f4 thing...then kubuntu and blank for password... now it says kubuntu@kubuntu prompt... but i cant do anything.... exit and enter will bring me back
[17:45] <user|518> tried this with ubunu stabd version with two usb sticks and it didnt wor k ed...after long waiting time shittyerror message
[17:55] <user|518> any ideas for cool linux ditribution for a bootable stick...no install on laptop ?
[18:11] <carlo30> Hi all. I'm a newbie with limited skills. I installed Kubuntu on a mini PC on a second SSD drive. On the first one I have Win 11. The install went OK, but the GRUB loader fails to do anything: I can't launch Kubuntu, nor Win, I can't use the arrows, the ESC button or anything.  Is there any quick fix???
[18:31] <alkisg> carlo30: you see grub, but keys won't work there?
[18:42] <carlo30> Yes. Grub starts, it shows three options (Ubuntu, Ubuntu safe mode and Windows)  but nothing works. It freezes
[18:54] <alkisg> carlo30: you select one of them with the arrow keys and press enter and THEN it freezes, or it's already frozen and no keys work?
[18:54] <alkisg> I.e. can you use the menu or not
[18:55] <carlo30> No key works: I can't even move between the options
[18:56] <alkisg> carlo30: do you still have the usb stick, does the grub menu there work?
[18:58] <carlo30> I didn' try it. You mean trying the live USB?
[18:59] <alkisg> Yes
[18:59] <alkisg> If so, you can use that menu to boot from the disk
[21:44] <Guest6180> hello all... I was wondering if there is a timeline for Kubuntu to upgrade to plasma 5.25 or 5.26 (I just installed Kunbuntu 22.04 in a VM and it has 5.24)
[21:54] <Roey> hi anyone here know openvpn configuration, by any chance?  n the file "https://openvpn.net/community-resources/how-to/#installing-openvpn", it says "openvpn --genkey --secret ta.key".  I run this and get the error "DEPRECATED OPTION: The option --secret is deprecated.  Er.. what do I do now?  I'm setting up an OpenVPN server and client. and the manual is telling me to use something deprecated...
