| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> Does it matter that my setup is dual boot? | 01:47 |
| mmikowski | Koobsicke: The distro upgrade process has gotten better at rolling back sources if there is a failure for any reason. So instead of leaving the system in a half-upgraded state, you will see that if the distro upgrade fails. | 02:03 |
| mmikowski | Koobsickle: Ok, that is fairly common. There are just so many things that can go wrong that sometimes its better to cut bait, back up your data, and then do a clean install. | 02:04 |
| mmikowski | That's what I generally recommend. I know, for lots of people upgrades work, but when they don't, using the alternative is usually a good choice instead of going down the rabbit hole of trying to figure out why the upgrade didn't work. Besides, a clean install is almost always better since there are no left-over system configs that can cause | 02:06 |
| mmikowski | unwanted surprises. | 02:06 |

| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> Meh this is what I was afraid of. Not sure how this impacts if I have a dual boot machine (re @IrcsomeBot: <mmikowski> That's what I generally recommend.

| alkisg | Koobsicle, run this command and send us the output: grep -r . /etc/apt/sources.list* | nc termbin.com 9999 | 06:33 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> https://bpa.st/Q2WHW (re @IrcsomeBot: <alkisg> Koobsicle, run this command and send us the output: grep -r . /etc/apt/sources.list* | nc termbin.com 9999) | 06:36 |
| alkisg | Koobsicle, this isn't what I asked though | 06:37 |
| alkisg | It doesn't list the contents of the .d directory, that's only a single file | 06:37 |
| alkisg | The asterisk in my command, including the -r, means "recurse into the sources.list.d directory, and tell us its contents" | 06:38 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> Well I ran the command you suggested that's the result (re @IrcsomeBot: <alkisg> Koobsicle, this isn't what I asked though) | 06:38 |
| alkisg | Koobsicle, no, you send us a single file, not the whole sources | 06:39 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> ? | 06:39 |
| alkisg | The apt sources are several files. You send us only one of them. | 06:39 |
| alkisg | Run the command, see the output, compare it with yours | 06:40 |
| alkisg | You'll understand then | 06:40 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> https://bpa.st/SFQDE | 06:41 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> How about now? | 06:41 |
| alkisg | Did that include -r? Do you have nothing inside /etc/apt/sources.list.d at all? | 06:42 |
| alkisg | Ah OK there they are | 06:42 |
| alkisg | OK, so you have amdgpu, zulu, oibaf, winehq, rocm, ernstp and kisak | 06:43 |
| alkisg | So it's quite possible that one of them is breaking the dependecies for the upgrade | 06:43 |
| alkisg | There are two solutions, one is to pinpoint which one it is, and the other is to undo all of them | 06:44 |
| alkisg | Let's try the first solution. Run sudo do-release-upgrade and tell us the terminal output when it stops | 06:44 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> Please install all available updates for your release before upgrading. | 06:46 |
| alkisg | Do that then, sudo apt full-upgrade | 06:46 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> I've already ran sudo apt full-upgrade. It does nothing | 06:47 |
| alkisg | Pastebin the whole output of your terminal as it is now | 06:48 |
| alkisg | With both of these commands and their output | 06:48 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> so the command is sudo do-release upgrade && sudo apt full-upgrade? | 06:49 |
| alkisg | sudo apt update; sudo apt full-upgrade; sudo do-release-upgrade | 06:49 |
| alkisg | Run that ^ and pastebin the WHOLE terminal output | 06:49 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> https://bpa.st/64VWG | 06:51 |
| alkisg | Koobsicle, is there a problem in sharing? I do not see the commands in your paste, I only see a part of the output | 06:51 |
| alkisg | Please appreciate people trying to help you; they're not trying to exploit you; don't waste their time like that | 06:52 |
| alkisg | 2 packages can be upgraded. Run 'apt list --upgradable' to see them. ==> this is the issue there, but I don't see the packages because you only pasted part of the output | 06:52 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> Oh sorry, I'm just posting what is after the command you are providing | 06:53 |
| alkisg | What's the output of this? apt list --upgradable | 06:54 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> apt list --upgradable | 06:55 |

| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable | 06:56 |
| alkisg | It looks like the oibaf ppa has broken your dependencies. You'll need to do the second method. | 06:57 |
| alkisg | 1) Remove all your additional apt sources: sudo mv /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* /var/backups | 06:57 |
| alkisg | 2) Edit the /etc/apt/sources.list file, and remove the wine entry from there | 06:57 |
| alkisg | 3) Use google translate on this post: https://alkisg.mysch.gr/steki/index.php?topic=7370.0 | 06:57 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> How do I do this? (re @IrcsomeBot: <alkisg> 2) Edit the /etc/apt/sources.list file, and remove the wine entry from there) | 07:00 |
| alkisg | Pastebin that file so that we tell you a command instead of editing | 07:01 |
| alkisg | This command should do it: sudo sed '/winehq/d' -i /etc/apt/sources.list | 07:02 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> sudo mv /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* /var/backups | 07:02 |

| alkisg | Koobsicle, if you're going to run your own commands, I can't help | 07:02 |
| alkisg | I didn't mention anything about ppa-purge | 07:02 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> Anyhow I ran this and it did not produce anything (re @IrcsomeBot: <alkisg> This command should do it: sudo sed '/winehq/d' -i /etc/apt/sources.list) | 07:03 |

| alkisg | OK forget reading the link, maybe google translate didn't work for you | 07:08 |
| alkisg | Run this: | 07:08 |

| alkisg | sudo apt update | 07:08 |
| alkisg | sudo apt full-upgrade | 07:08 |
| alkisg | And at that point, don't press yes | 07:08 |
| alkisg | Pastebin the WHOLE terminal output, and wait for our input | 07:09 |

| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> finished | 07:20 |

I want to connect to a wireguard server somewhere else. Noob here. I have a configuration file that works beautifully on other operating systems (desktop and mobile). I have sudo apt installed wireguard but it still doesn’t set up the connection when I import the file in network man | 07:25 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> That's it btw it stopped there (re @IrcsomeBot: <alkisg> Use pastebin when the output is more than 2 lines) | 07:26 |
| alkisg | Koobsicle, only part of the things you pasted reached IRC | 07:26 |

| user|71 | Hi, having an issue with my terminal ATM. Arrow keys produce "ABCD" instead of the control sequences I would expect. Therefore I can't navigate in menus or retrieve command history. Anyone have an Idea what could cause this? | 08:51 |
| mmikowski | skramer: The best hack is probably to set the windows the way you like them, then log out (do NOT power down or reboot). Then log back in. | 09:23 |
| mmikowski | Kwin (?) does a better job at remembering app size and location in that case. | 09:24 |
| mmikowski | I frequent culprit is konsole windows which start far too small. | 09:25 |
| mmikowski | If that doesn't work for you (although it has for me), you can right click on the window bar and set "special window settings". | 09:25 |
| skramer | mmikowski: Thank you, I will try your suggested method. Although I never experienced such issues before. Seems to me that 22.04 is quite buggy on a fresh install. | 10:55 |

| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> BTW ty for helping me last night. Really appreciate it. So the upgrade says it completed, but there were some errors (re @IrcsomeBot: <alkisg> rm /etc/apt/preferences.d/50priorities; do-release-upgrade) | 15:19 |

| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> Gosh dang it I didn't do that and loaded up to black screen | 16:29 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> Great so now am I screwed? I rebooted and again to a black sceen (re @DarinMiller: Before restarting, run "sudo apt update" and "sudo apt full-upgrade" to see if any broken packages or incomplete updates.) | 16:32 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <DarinMiller> do you have a mouse pointer or a prompt of any kind? | 16:36 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> Yes | 16:37 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> mouse pointer | 16:37 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <DarinMiller> If you have a mouse pointer, try ctrl+alt+t to open a terminal | 16:37 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> No luck | 16:38 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <DarinMiller> if that fails, try ctrl+alt+f1 | 16:38 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <DarinMiller> then run sudo apt update and sudu apt full-upgrade | 16:39 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> Still no luck | 16:39 |

| IrcsomeBot_ | <DarinMiller> your username is typically the first part of the prompt. I have not idea how to help with the password... | 16:43 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <DarinMiller> I need to run.. but assuming you remember your creds. run the update commands above, ensure your plasma enviro is install by running: sudo apt install kde-plasma-desktop plasma-desktop then try rebooting again. | 16:46 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> PHeeww that worked | 16:46 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> but full upgrade was interrupted | 16:46 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> dpkg says I need to run sudo dpkg —configure -a manually? | 16:47 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <DarinMiller> Yes, do that but use sudo... | 16:47 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <DarinMiller> then run full-upgrade | 16:47 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> Went thru the whole process only to end with Aborted | 16:50 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> Okay I was able to run sudo apt install kde-plasma-desktop plasma-desktop, then rebooted | 17:06 |

| mmikowski | skramer: Performance is you best bet for performance. Intel for powersave. Hybrid should generally be avoided since it actually uses more power at idle than performance or intel. I think NV and Intel and system integrators push it because it meets certain energy star compliance requirements. But outside of some very specific use cases - like | 17:36 |
| mmikowski | wanting more VRAM for ML while displaying in Intel - it's just more trouble than it's worth IME. | 17:36 |
| mmikowski | Heck, you can even run Intel graphics exclusively while running ML on an NV GPU, which is actually better than running Hybrid to maximize VRAM availability. | 17:37 |
| mmikowski | skramer: Also, you might want to install plasma-optimus. Eickmeyer and I put that together and debugged, repsectively, it for 22.04, and it gives you a nice little widget to control your GPU selection, and it will warn you about things like this. | 17:39 |
| mmikowski | skramer: After that, what bugs remain with graphics? | 17:40 |
| mmikowski | skramer: Also, it really sounds like you are having a reading problem in the ~/.config directory, as if some of the file got overwritten by root and are no longer writable by your standard user. | 17:43 |
| mmikowski | A couple of strategies there: sudo chown -R $USER:$USER ~/.config might fix it. | 17:43 |
| mmikowski | If you have corrupted files there, you could set it aside and then move over configs as you need them: mv ~/.config ~/.config.O # Then retart plasma | 17:44 |
| mmikowski | # Then move over configs as-needed. | 17:44 |
| mmikowski | You can check for mis-owned files like this: cd ~/.config; find ./ -printf '%u\n' |grep -v "$USER"; | 17:46 |
| mmikowski | if you see lines returned, then some files are owned by someone else and are likely unwritable | 17:47 |
| mmikowski | Better yet: cd ~/.config; find ./ -printf '%u %p\n' |grep -Ev "^${USER} " | 17:48 |
| mmikowski | also cd ~/.local; find ./ -printf '%u %p\n' |grep -Ev "^${USER} " | 17:48 |
| mmikowski | if you have misowned files in either case, you can fix it with sudo chown -R $USER:USER . in the offending directory. | 17:50 |
| mmikowski | Koobsicle: If you do a dual boot machine, the best advice I can give is to physically remove any an all disks you don't want windows to touch during the install process, as certain install events with windows makes it decide to grab and reformat attached drives. Outside of that, I got nothing, sorry. On the rare ocassion when I do dual boot for | 17:54 |
| mmikowski | testing, I use a separate NVMe for that purpose because they are so cheap these days and you avoid all that nasty MBR and windows-wants-to-own-all-the-disks stuff. | 17:54 |

Outside of that, I g | 19:40 |
| mmikowski | Koobsicle: IANAEODB (I Am Not An Expert On Dual Boot) :) But my guess is you are seeing issues with the graphics drivers, not with the dual boot aspect. | 19:42 |
| mmikowski | If it got through grub and the kubuntu glowing screen, it likely booted correctly. | 19:42 |
| mmikowski | Now press Ctrl+Alt+F2 to see if you can get a virtual terminal and can sign in there. | 19:43 |
| mmikowski | If so, that's where you can fix your graphics drivers. | 19:43 |
| mmikowski | try: sudo apt install plasma-optimus nvidia-drivers-525 nvidia-prime | 19:44 |
| mmikowski | Then prime-select nvidia and reboot. | 19:44 |
| mmikowski | Avoid on-demand unless you have a specific need for it. | 19:45 |
| mmikowski | Also, if you aren't using a laptop, you can skip plasma-optimus, nvidia-prime, and prime-select. | 19:45 |
| mmikowski | I have to leave for a while, so good luck! | 19:46 |
| tomreyn | so, a friend of mine uses "kde on ubuntu", i.e. i guess he installed it after removing gnome-shell/mutter, converting it to kind of a kubuntu (obviously not ideal). he's on 20.04 LTS, which reaches EOL by next month. | 19:55 |
| tomreyn | I just learnt that Kubuntu 22.04 has some stability issues around kwin + plasma shell, and am thus wondering what to suggest to him regarding the EOL issue | 19:57 |
| tomreyn | do we know whether ubuntu-pro will provide continued security support for KDE packages / packages Kubuntu uses? | 19:57 |
| Eickmeyer | tomreyn: an SRU of the latest LTS of Plasma might be in the works for 22.04. | 20:41 |
| Eickmeyer | It's undergoing testing. | 20:42 |
| tomreyn | Eickmeyer: nice, thanks for the info. | 20:58 |
| tomreyn | (i did read *might* ;) ) | 21:01 |
| IrcsomeBot_ | <Koobsicle> Ya we got into console and ran 'sudo apt install kde-plasma-desktop plasma-desktop' that didn't work either. It is an AMD GPU (re @IrcsomeBot: <mmikowski> try: sudo apt install plasma-optimus nvidia-drivers-525 nvidia-prime) | 21:19 |
| mmikowski | Koobsicle, then the issue is likely the graphics libraries setup. Unfortunately, I don't have the experience to help there. Maybe others can. You should look at Xorg logs and sort out why your GUI isn't starting. You can also type sudo systemctl restart sddm to get a feel for what's going on. | 21:22 |
| mmikowski | And, yes, don't install nvidia-driver-525 or nvidia-prime or plasma-optimus. Those will not work and will only complicate matters. | 21:23 |
| tomreyn | !amd | Koobsicle: just in case this helps | 21:54 |
| ubottu | Koobsicle: just in case this helps: On Ubuntu, AMD's official Linux graphics driver "amdgpu" is automatically loaded for matching hardware. Very old cards use driver "radeon" (r300, r600) instead. See the !man pages for X options, "modinfo -p <graphics-driver>" for kernel parameters. Both drivers are open source and integrate with MESA and !DRI. Drivers "amdgpu-pro", "fglrx" and "ati" are not supported here. | 21:54 |
| tomreyn | (so don't install amdgpu-pro from amd.com) | 21:56 |
