 Is upgrading to a non lts kubuntu version a good idea?
[06:22] <guiverc> @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] <guiverc> 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] <weedmic> 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] <guiverc[m]> 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] <guiverc[m]> default...
[07:45] <guiverc[m]> 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] <weedmic> 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] <guiverc[m]> 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] <weedmic> i have already ensured it is enabled with a result of 176 (which means everything)
[07:47] <guiverc[m]> 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] <weedmic> so you are not
[07:48] <guiverc[m]> REISUB is as mentioned an example of a common SysRq command, that as stated I believe the wikipedia page uses as example...
[07:49] <guiverc[m]> 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] <weedmic> ok, I watched a video by chris titus - i now understand what you meant.  i was misremembering it.  ty
[07:51] <weedmic> tot siens
[07:51] <guiverc[m]> the wikipedia page i mentioned is a good reminder...

[12:56] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[13:03] <BayouGuru> Hi BluesKaj
[13:04] <BluesKaj> hi BayouGuru
[13:16] <Keksimus3> Will anyone help a newcomer? xD
[13:17] <koffeinfriedhof> We don't helpt here :þ
[13:17] <koffeinfriedhof> -t
[13:17] <guiverc> Keksimus3, ask your question & people will answer when they're able to...  many are busy getting 23.04 ready to release....
[13:18] <Keksimus3> https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=217333#c18 need test fix patch

[13:19] <Keksimus3> It seems like I'm having trouble modifying the kernel :(

[13:21] <koffeinfriedhof> Keksimus3: You need to compile a kernel yourself and apply the provided patch before. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile

 How change hostname ? username means hostname ?
[13:36] <oerheks> !hostname
[13:36] <oerheks> in 2 places, aqualk
[13:36] <oerheks> and hostname is not username.
[13:37] <oerheks> after change, reboot
[13:46] <mpaint> While the technical release date is on thursday, april 20th. Is there a possibility it will be released on the 19th given time zones and all?
[13:52] <oerheks> as there is no given time, it might well be on 21th
[13:52] <oerheks> or, in case of an issue, much later
[13:59] <mpaint> You're probably right, I'll probably just stick with 22.04 until 24.04 comes out.
[13:59] <mpaint> Because of the 9 month support cycle that non LTS releases get.

[17:55] <mparillo> I would call it a good-to-rave review.
[18:12] <user|28> Can I install Kubuntu as a VMWare Fusion VM on a Macbook Air M1?
[18:28] <mparillo> I was able to install it using VirtualBox on an iMac some years ago.
[18:35] <mparillo> 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] <mmikowski> 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] <AlejandroCM> Guys I have a problem, I hope you can help me.
[22:51] <AlejandroCM> I installed Kubuntu but I can't pair my bluetooth devices.
[22:51] <AlejandroCM> what should I do?
