[06:40] <skramer> Does anybody have an idea, why SDDM does not respect changed wallpaper? It always switches back to the default. (22.04)
[06:42] <skramer> Then, sometimes it does not remember window positions even if it only went to lock screen. Then all windows are moved to laptop screen. Strange....
[06:44] <skramer> Finally, programs are randomly closed when going to lock screen or standby. I can not predict which ones, it's always different. The  only one predictable is Discord...
[07:00] <mmikowski> skramer: Wayland? X11?
[07:01] <mmikowski> I believe sddm is always X. But the lock screen is different.
[07:02] <skramer> mmikowski: It's X
[07:02] <mmikowski> That's managed by plasma IIRC.
[07:03] <skramer> Graphics is Nvidia proprietary, if that makes any difference
[07:03] <mmikowski> I'm not seeing that here on 5.27.3 on Nvidia proprietary.
[07:04] <mmikowski> Maybe it's corrupt configs? fwiw, I just debugged a setup and it didn't get fully reset until I deleted ~/.config and ~/.cache/*
[07:04] <skramer> I have 5.24.7 running on 22.04
[07:04] <mmikowski> Not suggesting you should do that.
[07:04] <mmikowski> fwiw, that debug was on 5.24.7 on Intel.
[07:04] <mmikowski> hehe
[07:05] <mmikowski> Today, tested lock screen on Nvidia proprietary too.
[07:05] <mmikowski> However - icons and widgets moving is a known issue which was improved in 5.24.7 but not completely fixed IME.
[07:06] <skramer> What I find quite "interesting", this is a fresh install. The previous one that came since 18.04 (even longer) did not show any issues
[07:06] <mmikowski> It is more problematic with multiple displays. I recall Nate saying that 5.27 got some serious work on making sure stuff doesn't move anymore.
[07:07] <mmikowski> It does seem much better, overall.
[07:07] <mmikowski> Yes, the "stuff-moving-on-my-desktop" got far more common in 22.04. (5.24.x).
[07:08] <skramer> Hmm, it does not really make sense that it seemed to be working well before and now we have those issues (:
[07:08] <mmikowski> outside of a few minor bugs, plasma with 20.04 was quite solid.
[07:09] <skramer> Maybe I should restart installing 20.04 and then upgrade to 22.04
[07:09] <mmikowski> skramer: Please, you *don't* want to try that :P
[07:10] <skramer> Not really :D
[07:10] <mmikowski> Major release upgrades are always challenging.
[07:10] <mmikowski> IME, clean installs are *far* better.
[07:11] <mmikowski> The challenge with updates is they inevitably leave cruft lying around.
[07:11] <skramer> No, as I mentioned... I made good experiences in upgrading 18.04 > 20.04 > 22.04. But now, on fresh install...
[07:11] <mmikowski> Wow, that's odd.
[07:11] <skramer> Still, I don't want to go back to 20.04 just to upgrade it afterwards
[07:12] <mmikowski> I doubt that's it. My guess is there is something weird happening in your configs.
[07:12] <mmikowski> fwiw, I just had an issue with Chrome scaling incorrectly on an HDPI screen.
[07:12] <mmikowski> But creating a fresh user and testing, and it worked fine.
[07:13] <mmikowski> That's when I deleted the .cache/* and ~/.config files as a test. After that, everything worked fine.
[07:13] <mmikowski> This is in a test lab with lots of machines, so we can do that easily.
[07:14] <skramer> That's it! Not considered that yet... Yeah, I will create a new user on my machine & see what happens
[07:14] <skramer> You made my day
[07:14] <mmikowski> For you, perhaps set aside ~/.config and blow away ~/.cache/* in a VT (not when logged in).
[07:14] <mmikowski> Then you can move back configs as needed.
[07:14] <mmikowski> Yeah, if the fresh user works, that's a great way forward.
[07:15] <mmikowski> Glad to help.
[07:15] <mmikowski> Also, System Settings > Appearance > Global Theme, select a theme and include the layout.
[07:15] <mmikowski> That might fix the issue too.
[07:16] <skramer> mmikowski: May I ask where you are from? I'm from Germany, Saxony
[07:16] <mmikowski> kfocus.org :)
[07:16] <mmikowski> Castro Valley CA.
[07:17] <mmikowski> skramer: I need to call it a night - it's past midnight here. Best of luck with your setup!
[07:18] <skramer> mmikowski: Thank you & good night
[07:18] <mmikowski> nn!

[12:51] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[15:03] <Guest7099> Is anyone having problems with timeshift? My Snapshots keep failing to create. "Synching files with rsync...
[15:03] <Guest7099> E: rsync returned an error
[15:03] <Guest7099> E: Failed to create new snapshot
[15:03] <Guest7099> Failed to create snapshot"
[15:05] <Guest7099> I heard downgrading rsync might do the trick, but i'm not sure how to correctly do that.
