 THANKS
 i need to know hou can i active a mouse auto scroll in Kubuntu 22,10,thanks
 Hey, is the KDE 5.27 going to be in time for 23.04 or is it already frozen to 5.26
[14:19] <mparillo> The Developers were hopeful for Plasma 5.27. The beta (5.26.90) is already in the beta PPA (https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/ubuntu/beta?field.series_filter=lunar). Warning: I borked my LL system trying to upgrade to it, so don't try on a critical machine.
[14:26] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[14:46] <cbreak> does anyone know how to remove kwin scripts properly? I removed them in the settings, but they still seem to have keyboard shortcut entries associated with them.
[14:49] <cbreak> kwin scripts seem to not be very reliable in general
[14:51] <cbreak> heh, seems deleting the whole kwin section in the GUI config works
 Доброе утро!

[17:29] <ozai> hello guys, i want to remove Kubuntu to install Windows 10 21H1
[17:29] <ozai> how do i do it
[17:31] <ozai> CAN SOMEONE HELP
 you do bot need to pre-preemptively kubuntu. Use the advance window installer to remove all partitions. Then just follow the standard window install routine.
[17:41] <oerheks> any supported windows can do that automaticly, wipe whole drive.
[17:42] <oerheks> oh, he is gone
[17:54] <JMichaelX> Anyone else lose audio after a recent update in 22.04?
[17:58] <JMichaelX> Intel onboard audio, with chipset Realtek ALC888.
[17:58] <JMichaelX> It shows up in alsamixer, but in settings/pavocontrol/etc, all that can be seen is the dummy device
[18:13] <arraybolt3> JMichaelX: Can you run in a terminal `dpkg-query -s firmware-sof-signed`?
[18:13] <arraybolt3> Tell me if it says the package is installed or not (please don't paste the output!).
[18:14] <arraybolt3> If the package is not installed, you probably did something that managed to get the sound firmware uninstalled.
[18:14] <JMichaelX> Status: install ok installed
[18:15] <arraybolt3> In that event, you can run "sudo apt install kubuntu-desktop" to restore all of the default Kubuntu apps, which should include the sound firmware. Or if you purposefully removed some of the default apps, "sudo apt install kde-plasma-desktop" will only reinstall the core of Kubuntu, which should include the sound firmware. After that, reboot.
[18:15] <arraybolt3> Oh. OK, so it is installed.
[18:15] <arraybolt3> OK, let's try booting into an older kernel
[18:16] <arraybolt3> Do you know if this is a BIOS or an EFI system? You can run "ls /sys/firmware/efi" to find out - if the directory exists, it's an EFI system, if not, it's a BIOS system.
[18:16] <arraybolt3> That will affect how we boot into an older kernel.
[18:16] <oerheks> i would try to remove ~/.pulse folder and restart pulseaudio -k
[18:17] <JMichaelX> arraybolt3: apparently this is a widespread issue, effecting some for a while now. I tried booting into the previous kernel (5.15.0-60) but that did not help. i may need to install an older one
[18:17] <arraybolt3> JMichaelX: Try what oerheks suggested.
[18:17] <arraybolt3> If the device shows up in alsamixer, it probably isn't a kernel issue, I would guess.
[18:17] <arraybolt3> (Nor is it likely to be a firmware issue.)
[18:17] <JMichaelX> yes
[18:18] <JMichaelX> Ty. Will try to remove ~/.pulse
[18:20] <arraybolt3> (Sorry to have jumped to conclusions about the kernel - I've had sound issues in the past that I was sure were kernel-related and so my brain automatically went there :P)
[18:20] <oerheks> apt-get -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-confmiss" install --reinstall pulseaudio
[18:20] <JMichaelX> no problem. i was suspecting the kernel as well
[18:20] <oerheks> * other option, but removing the pulse folder often works
[18:30] <JMichaelX> None of that worked, but I do appreciate the suggestions. Hopefully an update will fix this in the near future
[18:31] <arraybolt3> :( Do you know what components updated when the problem occurred?
[18:31] <arraybolt3> You can try rolling back an update if it's not working right.
[18:31] <arraybolt3> (For an individual package - you can't easily rollback an entire batch of updates.)
[18:32] <arraybolt3> Also you might try creating a new user account and seeing if audio works there, to rule out the possibility of a configuration error in your user account.
[18:32] <JMichaelX> Unfortunately, I do not. I had not tried to use audio on this machine in several weeks, and do not know exactly when it happened. There are a lot of complaints about the issue online, going back several weeks. I have seen no real solutions posted
[18:32] <arraybolt3> Hmm. Were any of them Launchpad bug reports?
[18:33] <arraybolt3> Also I wonder if audio works if you boot a live ISO and use the Try Kubuntu feature - that would rule out hardware problems.
[18:34] <JMichaelX> arraybolt3: no, everything I have looked at was at askubuntu
[18:36] <JMichaelX> It *may* be the same as this?: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pipewire/+bug/2003743
[18:36] -ubottu:#kubuntu- Launchpad bug 2003743 in pipewire (Ubuntu) "Realtek ALC4080 USB audio device support" [Medium, Fix Released]
[18:36] <arraybolt3> JMichaelX: OK, wait, what version of Kubuntu is this then?
[18:37] <arraybolt3> If this happened after doing a do-release-upgrade, then it makes sense.
[18:37] <JMichaelX> I am using 22.04, but this appears to effect 22.10, too, if I understand correctly
[18:37] <arraybolt3> "dpkg-query -s pipewire"
[18:38] <JMichaelX> arraybolt3: no, I have not done a do-release-upgrae since 22.04 was released
[18:39] <JMichaelX> 0.3.48-1ubuntu3 is installed
[18:40] <arraybolt3> OK, and "dpkg-query -s pipewire-pulse"
[18:40] <arraybolt3> And "dpkg-query -s pulseaudio"
[18:40] <Eickmeyer[m]> 22.04 doesn't use pipewire for audio.
[18:40] <arraybolt3> Eickmeyer[m]: Not by default, no, but some people change that (i.e., I did that once).
[18:40] <arraybolt3> (Only that was with 20.04.)
[18:41] <JMichaelX> pipewire-pulse is: 0.3.48-1ubuntu3
[18:41] <Eickmeyer[m]> Old, incomplete version of pipewire that should never have been used for audio.
[18:41] <arraybolt3> Eickmeyer[m]: I'm thinking going back to Pulseaudio might be the solution.
[18:42] <Eickmeyer[m]> Yep.
[18:42] <JMichaelX> pulseaudio is: 1:15.99.1+dfsg1-1ubuntu2
[18:42] <arraybolt3> OK, one moment to check something...
[18:42] <Eickmeyer[m]> Remember though, Pipewire isn't just an audio server.
[18:42] <arraybolt3> (Going to make sure the next command I advise isn't destructive.)
[18:42] <JMichaelX> So I should possibly remove pipewire packages?
[18:42] <JMichaelX> lol ok
[18:42] <arraybolt3> Maybe, I'm about to find out.
[18:42] <Eickmeyer[m]> No. Just pipewire-pulse.
[18:42] <JMichaelX> ok
[18:43] <Eickmeyer> arraybolt3: Removing the pipewire-pulse package should be all they need to do.
[18:44] <arraybolt3> (Eickmeyer is our local audio expert, and I'm sure removing pipewire-pulse won't be destructive, so +1 on removing pipewire-pulse. You can then use systemctl commands if you're impatient, or reboot if you want things to be easy.)
[18:44] <Eickmeyer> Remove pipewire-pulse and reboot should do the trick, just to be safe.
[18:44] <JMichaelX> Will remove package and reboot. Brb.
[18:45] <Eickmeyer> Pipewire also provides some valuable video capture stuff, so removing pipewire wholesale is a bad idea.
[18:50] <JMichaelX> That did the trick. Many, many thanks!
[18:50] <Eickmeyer> Sweet.
[18:51] <arraybolt3> \o/
[18:51] <JMichaelX> I do not recall ever deliberately installing pipewire-pulse. This may well be what others are running into
[18:52]  * arraybolt3 does "apt-cache rdepends pipewire-pulse" to see what's pulling it in
[18:52] <arraybolt3> Hmm... ok on a kinetic system that didn't work :P
[18:54] <JMichaelX> https://pastebin.com/vRe3BCtE
[19:01] <Eickmeyer[m]> JMichaelX: There's about a million ways it could've happened, but the good news is that it's problem solved now.
[19:24] <user|0> how do i install kubuntu from usb? i uesd liliusb creator but nothing happens when my pc reboot
[19:25] <arraybolt3> I am not familiar with that USB creator.
[19:25] <arraybolt3> The Kubuntu ISO can be flashed directly to a USB without needing the fancy tricks some USB creators use.
[19:25] <arraybolt3> The tool I generally recommend for that is balenaEtcher.
[19:26] <arraybolt3> https://www.balena.io/etcher
[19:26] <arraybolt3> Many people also use Rufus, but I find it to be too confusing, and for best results you have to select a "DD mode" at some point during the flashing process. Etcher, on the other hand, is very straightforward and works well.
[19:29] <user|0> ok ill try thanks
[19:35] <arraybolt3> user|0: Also, you'll probably need to get to a boot menu in your system's BIOS in order to boot from the USB - just having the USB inserted at boot time usually doesn't work. Have it inserted, get to your boot menu, and then select the USB drive - that usually works.
