waffelnhi people, i'd like to ask if it's possible in Kubuntu to make Shift + Scroll wheel do horizontal scrolling like in Windows.23:11
valoriewaffeln: probably23:18
waffelndo you know how?23:18
valorieif you use alt+space then type settings23:19
valorielook at the top of your screen23:19
waffelni already searched the system settings but couldn't find anything :/23:19
valoriethat's called Krunner23:19
valoriehmmm23:19
waffelni also searched online and only found instructions for gnome or using the "xautomation" package23:19
valorieI don't have a scroll wheel to check, sorry23:20
valorieif you don't get another answer here, try #kde23:20
valorieI'm sure it's possible, but dunno how, sorry23:20
waffelni'll try there. i thought it'd be best to ask in the distro community first since Kubuntu might have modified parts of KDE - i don't know :)23:20
waffelnthanks regardless :)23:21
valorieno, we don't23:21
valoriewe work with the plasma and app devels tho23:21
valorieand all the KDE devels work with gnome devels as well to make shortcuts etc. as universal as possible23:22
waffelnthat's cool23:22
valorieyes, collaboration is really powerful23:23
valorieall of us want to make all of linux as easy as possible for all users23:23
waffelnthat makes sense. it's awesome to see both consistency while still having variety.23:25
valoriewe're all in this together, in spite of the urban myths saying otherwise23:25
valorieagreed23:25
waffelnyeah urban myths is about linux elitists which also say that you should never use ubuntu.23:25
waffelnignoring the fact that while ubuntu might not be perfect, it's still a lot better than the direction microsoft windows is heading.23:26
valorieamen23:26
valoriealthough you can basically run linux *from* win23:27
waffelnthere's this saying that just like with many things like fighting climate change and reducing animal harm, we don't need a few people doing it perfectly, we need many people doing it imperfectly.23:28
valorieyes23:28
waffelnyeah i've been using WSL for many years now.23:28
waffelni think it has made my move over to using linux as a main OS easier.23:28
valorieI do genealogy and most of the people I work with use Windows23:28
waffelni know the whole microsoft EEE thing but it's been solely positive for me.23:28
valorieand as you say, we are all in this together23:29
waffelnwe just have to hope and pray that ""niche"" industries pay more attention to linux. i'm a hobbyist DJ and there's tons of software that i can't work without that doesn't run on linux.23:30
valoriecheck out Ubuntu Studio23:30
valorieit's for YOU23:30
waffelnbut realistically only more linux adoption will have any influence on that. first the users need to move - the corporations won't make the first move.23:31
waffeln(with some exceptions, like davinci resolve)23:31
valorieand it uses the Plasma desktop by default23:31
waffelnTIL!23:31
waffelnbut it's not gonna cut it for me. i know for sure that the programs i use are without alternatives.23:31
valorie!ubuntustudio23:32
ubottuUbuntu Studio is an official flavor of Ubuntu for the artist who wishes to use Ubuntu as their creativity workstation.

For more info and install instructions, join #ubuntustudio or see http://ubuntustudio.org23:32
waffelne.g. rekordbox, foobar2000 and all the smaller programs that make club DJing possible.23:32
valorieright, but working with their users might be useful23:32
Eickmeyer!info mixx23:32
ubottuPackage mixx does not exist in lunar23:32
Eickmeyerope23:32
waffelnof course i know about mixxx.23:32
Eickmeyeridjc used to be a thing.23:33
waffelnbut it can't prepare a CDJ-compatible USB stick with the same features as rekordbox.23:33
valoriegot it23:33
waffelnat least gaming is on a good path towards more and more linux support through steamdeck and the like.23:34
valoriethe size of a userbase makes a difference23:34
waffelnright now i have 1 PC for gaming, 2 laptops for DJing, 1 linux main PC for software development and misc. and 2 servers with linux.23:35
waffelnmaybe in 5 or 10 years i can move the gaming PC to linux too.23:35
