[06:20] Is upgrading to a non lts kubuntu version a good idea? [06:22] @Omar, the non-LTS releases (eg. 22.10 or soon-to-be-released 23.04) will provide newer software (without use of backports), but you'll need to release-upgrade sooner. Your choice; each has pros & cons [06:22] main benefit of LTS is longer-support cycle (ie. longer between release-upgrades; but due to larger change, more chance of problems just less often).. and some 3rd party packages only package for LTS (if you do rely on 3rd party software; sticking with LTS can be a benefit) [07:41] 5.19.0-38-generic - I want to get to sysrq - i press alt+print screen - nothing happens. tried both left and right alt with and without fn key. what should I press? I have ensured that sysrq=176. [07:44] weedmic: SysRq allows you to direct (via commands) the kernel bypassing any GUI/UI... The SysRq key is followed by commands (where the ALT key being held down is essential as it's what tells the kernel the following keystrokes/commands are part of the sysrq command). Hitting SysRq without a command would in my expectation do nothing.. (maybe an entry in log of 'awaiting command, no command entered' if logging was extreme rather than [07:44] default... [07:45] If you don't recall commands, grabbing a phone or another device & searching "magic sysrq" in a search engine usually finds wikipedia page near or at top of results.. explore it for list of keys & thus commands available for you, wikipedia for example uses REISUB as an example... [07:46] guiverc[m]: i do not quite/fully understand your answer. are you saying i need to create a kernel panic first before it brings up the interface? [07:46] note also, some releases have SysRq commands disabled by default; others do not.. you mention 5.19 which is a kernel used by more than one release, thus it may, or may not be disabled (often its specific commands that are disabled too) [07:47] i have already ensured it is enabled with a result of 176 (which means everything) [07:47] IF you have a kernel panic; the kernel is dead & it thus cannot respond to commands (sysrq commands won't do anything...). The SysRq key being hit (with ALT) does nothing other than directs the kernel to listen for a command; the subsequent keys tell it what to do; SysRq is the start of a command & not the actual instruction you're passing to the kernel. [07:47] so you are not [07:48] REISUB is as mentioned an example of a common SysRq command, that as stated I believe the wikipedia page uses as example... [07:49] the REISUB being keys you hit... the last B tells the kernel to reboot; replace it with an O where the command is REISUO and the machine will turn off instead of reboot ... [07:51] ok, I watched a video by chris titus - i now understand what you meant. i was misremembering it. ty [07:51] tot siens [07:51] the wikipedia page i mentioned is a good reminder... === Zombiefleischer1 is now known as Zombiefleischer [08:57] How to upgrade 20.04 LTS to 22.04 LTS without losing data ?

[13:52] as there is no given time, it might well be on 21th [13:52] or, in case of an issue, much later [13:59] You're probably right, I'll probably just stick with 22.04 until 24.04 comes out.

[18:35] IIRC, I did not have any real issues other some keyboard chords, like ctrl alt f4 to get to a tty, or REISUB. I do not recall if the right mouse button was detected. I never tested the webcam. [20:31] mparillo: thanks for reviewing the article! The laptop nails 3 of 5 ergonomic factors: screen, trackpad, keyboard. The other two, battery life and speakers, are decent but not exceptional. [22:51] Guys I have a problem, I hope you can help me. [22:51] I installed Kubuntu but I can't pair my bluetooth devices.
