user|33hi guys, kernel 6.2 available on Kubuntu 23.04?00:04
CraigMI just tried out the the Kubuntu 23.04 installer: here is my feed-back. I'm looking to setup a system with disk encryption, separate user partition and and a file system that does check-summing. I've had some annoyances with my current encrypted ZFS on root setup (like lack of installer support, snapshots breaking grub configuration etc.) so I04:09
CraigMdecided I'd go with something that should be more supported, Btrfs with LVM encryption. I selected the guided encrypted option (expecting it to guide me through picking a format and partitioning scheme), and noticed that the password boxes arn't labeled. I managed to guess I should put my password in there, and the button to continue to the next04:09
CraigMstep wasn't enabled. Turns out theres no feedback if the two passwords don't match. Once fixed, I hit next, and it asked me if I wanted to continue warning about erasing my data and showing the partition selection. It looked like it was going to use ext4 (which I didn't want and it never let me pick), so I said not to continue. Despite requesting04:09
CraigMit not continue, my drive was formatted with the partition scheme it proposed. I then looked at the manual partitioning tool, which didn't respect window resize very well, and didn't show the vendor information for the drives (like the other view did) which would have made it easy to format the wrong one of my nvme drives (since they are hard to04:09
CraigMtell apart now that it formatted my empty one against my will). Thats a far as I decided to go with the installer for now, but I figured providing some feedback might be useful, and the website doesn't make it clear where feedback should be sent so I'm putting it here.04:09
alkisguser|33: yes04:31
mmikowskiCraigM: I havem04:47
mmikowskiCraigM: I haven't looked at the 23.04 installer, but it sounds like it might still be Ubiquity based. One thing I always recommend is to physically remove any drives you don't want formatted :)04:51
lanskeehello there,can i talk with some one about kioslave5 bug please? Cant send error because this button dont , i can only copy the developer information . Ty06:22

kubuntuwhat am I doing wrong?06:27
kubuntuhi lanskee what is kioslave5?06:28
lanskeethat's some kde stuff, idk exactly. But this error happens while rendering in sideFx software "Houdini" i tried  22.04,22.10 and even now in 23.04 this error is still there.06:30
lanskeethis error occurs after every 1 frame of rendering, i have some sequences with 240+ frames, all works but this error is overwhelming notifications area06:33
kubuntuwith a little patience you will surely find someone who can give you a hand. meanwhile you could see how to hide the notification06:41

fsflp23Hi!  I just upgraded from 20.04 to 22.04.  Firefox is now the snap version and it is not using the custom colors for the Active Titlebar and Inactive Titlebar.  Does anyone know how to configure this version of Firefox to use the colors selected in System Settings?09:36
BluesKajHi all12:54
guivercfsflp23, the snap packaged firefox uses gtk themes (not Qt themes), so try setting an appropriate GTK theme is all I can offer sorry.13:14
guiverc(if you look, you'll note gtk-common-themes & gnome-3-38-2004 snaps installed; used by firefox; what Mozilla chose to use)13:15
guiverc(actually it maybe gnome-42-2204 you have installed; sorry if I was incorreect)13:16
IrcsomeBot<PJtunes> Hey all13:34
IrcsomeBot<PJtunes> I switched on my system and it displayed this while it was booting up,  "booting from Ubuntu failed verify it contains a 64bit UEFI OS, Press any key to continue booting"13:34
IrcsomeBot<PJtunes> What might be the case here cause I don't have an idea at all13:34
D4mnedhello iam having a problem with my locale everything is fine except my terminal is giving arabic output and i want that to be in english13:58
D4mnedfor example when i run aptitude it opens in arabic13:59
D4mnedand i cant figure out how to change that13:59
BluesKajD4mned, look in system settings/regional settings GUI14:02
D4mnedi did that i have american english as default and arabic14:03
D4mnedbut american english is on top14:03
D4mnedand when i do locale in the terminal everything is set to en_US.UTF-814:04
D4mnedbut its different from whats in /etc/default/locale14:05
D4mnedin etc/default/locale i got LANGUAGE=en_us:ar14:05
BluesKajchange the :ar to :en14:08
D4mnedokay i guess i have to log out and then back in14:09
D4mnedbrb14:09
D4mnednope still the same14:12
IrcsomeBot<PJtunes> ??? (re @PJtunes: Hey all14:19
IrcsomeBot<PJtunes> I switched on my system and it displayed this while it was booting up,  "booting from Ubuntu failed verify it contains a 64bit UEFI OS, Press any key to continue booting")14:19
tomreynPJtunes: i can't find this error message anywhere on the web, which suggests it is probably phrased slightly differently on your screen.14:23
tomreynPJtunes: what it probably means is that your kubuntu installation is a 32-bit or legacy BIOS installation14:24
tomreynand that you are booting into the UEFI variant of the grub boot loader (64-bit)14:25
arraybolt3@PJtunes: Did this system ever work before? And if so, did you change anything when this started happening?14:28
IrcsomeBot<PJtunes> Yes it's a 32-bit BIOS installation (re @IrcsomeBot: <tomreyn> PJtunes: what it probably means is that your kubuntu installation is a 32-bit or legacy BIOS installation)14:29
IrcsomeBot<PJtunes> Yes it works, the thing is this pops up whenever I leave the system in sleep mode for too long or when it goes off abruptly (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3> @PJtunes: Did this system ever work before? And if so, did you change anything when this started happening?)14:30
tomreyn32-bit kubuntu hasn't been supported for some years, i'd think14:34
geniiI think 16.04 or possibly 18.0414:39
arraybolt3@PJtunes: What version of Kubuntu is this? It sounds like your system supports 64-bit Kubuntu but is only running 32-bit Kubuntu, or possibly it's somehow switching between BIOS and UEFI mode.14:43
IrcsomeBot<PJtunes> Oh wow!! (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3> @PJtunes: What version of Kubuntu is this? It sounds like your system supports 64-bit Kubuntu but is only running 32-bit Kubuntu, or possibly it's somehow switching between BIOS and UEFI mode.)14:44
IrcsomeBot<PJtunes> It's 22.04 (re @IrcsomeBot: <genii> I think 16.04 or possibly 18.04)14:44
IrcsomeBot<PJtunes> Yes it does support 64-bit but don't know how to go about running 64bit on it (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3> @PJtunes: What version of Kubuntu is this? It sounds like your system supports 64-bit Kubuntu but is only running 32-bit Kubuntu, or possibly it's somehow switching between BIOS and UEFI mode.)14:45
arraybolt3If it's 22.04, you're running a 64-bit OS already.14:46
arraybolt3@PJtunes: To be sure I understand, you start the system. It works, You put it in sleep. When you wake it up, you see this message? Or does it turn off automatically while in sleep and when you turn it on then you see this message?14:46
arraybolt3From experience, the error you're seeing is that the computer is trying to boot Kubuntu and can't find GRUB.14:47
IrcsomeBot<PJtunes> Yes you get it, sometimes when I wake it up it just displays dark or cursor won't be moving, I'll have to forcefully shut it down, then whenever I reboot again it shows this, but it doesn't show that everytime tho (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3> @PJtunes: To be sure I understand, you start the system. It works, You put it in sleep. When you wake it up, you see this message? Or does it turn off automatically while in sleep and when you turn it o14:48
IrcsomeBot<PJtunes> Ohh14:49
IrcsomeBot<PJtunes> Is there anything I can do from my end to stop this from occurring? (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3> From experience, the error you're seeing is that the computer is trying to boot Kubuntu and can't find GRUB.)14:49
IrcsomeBot<PJtunes> Or should I stop leaving the system on sleep mode for a long time too cause seems like the hardware doesn't support that14:52
geniiSome Macs have 32bit UEFI but 64bit OS14:53
arraybolt3@PJtunes: I guess not leaving it in sleep for a while would be a good starting point. Also if you have anything related to hibernation enabled, disable it.14:54
IrcsomeBot<PJtunes> True (re @IrcsomeBot: <genii> Some Macs have 32bit UEFI but 64bit OS)14:59
IrcsomeBot<PJtunes> Okay I'll do just that, thank you very much (re @IrcsomeBot: <arraybolt3> @PJtunes: I guess not leaving it in sleep for a while would be a good starting point. Also if you have anything related to hibernation enabled, disable it.)14:59

IrcsomeBot<Evrro> Hi every one! any cases of Intel Iris XE and grafic freeze in normal boot? (recovery boot works fast)20:29
ElliriaThis is from Kubuntu 20.04, but may be useful: https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxquestions/comments/nlh3xq/kubuntu_2004_strange_freeze/20:31
floownHello. I wanted to upgrade to Kubuntu 23.04 from 22.04 but the new upgrade is not available when I do a: # do-release-upgrade -m desktop21:00
ElliriaI think that's because 22.04 is an LTS and 23.04 isn't.21:01
floownThe command result is: = Welcome to Ubuntu 22.10 'Kinetic Kudu' =21:01
ElliriaYou can only go from the same kind to the same kind.21:01
floownreally? So I must upgrade to Kinetic first, and in a second time to 23.04?21:03
arraybolt3Elliria: Almost - you can only go from one release to the next subsequent release, except for you can jump from LTS to LTS without going through all the ones in between.21:04
arraybolt3floown: So yes, you have to upgrade to Kinetic first, then Lunar. Note that Kinetic and Lunar are both interim releases that get much less support time than the LTS releases, so if you don't want to be upgrading often, you should probably stay on Jammy.21:05
ElliriaInteresting. Thanks, arraybolt3.21:06
floownOh, ok. But for the backport (for Plasma) it will continue on Jammy, even if Lunar is launched?21:07
floownI have that line deb https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports-extra/ubuntu/ jammy main21:12
arraybolt3floown: Jammy *should* continue to get backported KDE versions, if they can be made to work with Jammy at least.21:21
floownOk21:26
fsflp23guiverc: Thanks for the info!  It pointed me in the right direction to research a bit more,  I don't know much about the themes but learning.22:11
fsflp23Don't know if this will work but I may try to remove the snap version and try downloading from the mozilla web site and see how that works.22:12
fsflp23I downloaded the new Mullvad browser based on firefox and it installed easily and uses the titlebar colors selected in system settings so at least I can use this browser if the download from mozilla does not work.22:14

mmikowskikeithzg[m]: Upgrade from what-to-what?23:13
mmikowski22.04 to 23.04? 22.10 to 23.04? Something else?23:14
