[00:08] <oerheks> !next
[00:09] <derek_> Ok thanks yeah testing Kubuntu beta

[04:45] <threehymns> but it does not output anything

[06:10] <existy> hi
[09:37] <RD86> I just installed latest Kubuntu LTS, managed to connect to wifi during OS installation. But after I successfully installed the OS and booted nicely, the wifi is deactivated and notification shows wifi network could not be found. Please help. Many thanks in advance.
[10:39] <user|62> I just downloaded and installed the latest LTS Kubuntu, wifi works fine during OS installation, but after launching the OS, the wifi cannot connect to any network although available networks is detected. Please help to reply to my email rudtz86@gmail.com
[10:39] <user|62> Thank you.
[12:01] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[15:05] <xrandr> Hi there. Is there a way to permenantly disable pipewire and just use pulse audio? My CPU jumps high when pipewire plays audio

[18:35] <Nicky922> Hey there, I'm running 22.04 LTS with every update installed. Trying to browse the Discover store by section, I get a crash. If I run it via the terminal, the output is (process:239764): GLib-ERROR **: 21:34:08.400: Creating pipes for GWakeup: Too many open files
[18:35] <Nicky922> Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped)
[18:35] <Nicky922> If I search for an application in the store, or go to installed applications, everything works fine, so I can still use discover, but I can't browse, no matter what I do. I've tried reinstalling discover, etc. and nothing helped. Can I fix this?
[18:45] <Elliria> Is this of any use? https://stackoverflow.com/questions/62074634/glib-error-creating-pipes-for-gwakeup-too-many-open-files
[19:16] <Nicky922> Unfortunately, this happens with nothing except discover open, either. :(
[19:17] <Elliria> Well, darn. Have you asked in the kde channel?
[19:17] <Nicky922> I tried, but no answer.. Deleted the discover cache a couple times, same thing.
[19:17] <Nicky922> I will try again later/tomorrow, thank you anyway.
[19:18] <Elliria> I wish I could help. Hopefully you'll find someone on who knows the answer at some point.
[19:21] <Nicky922> Elliria, thank you for recommending the KDE channel, I happened to check their forums, and  damn, the LAST thing I hadn't tried yet just worked for me! Clean reinstalled Discover, then changed ulimit -Sn to 4096, launched from the terminal and it no longer crashes at least for now! Still freezes occasionally for a few seconds, but no crashing! So
[19:21] <Nicky922> if anyone runs into this issue, this worked for me, haha!
[19:22] <Elliria> Oh, such good news! I'm glad it's solved!
[19:23] <Elliria> Kubuntu 22.04 LTS does have a few bugs in it. The worst one I encountered was the wslu bug which made it so none of your shortcuts worked, so you had zero access to your computer even with just the keyboard. ACK!
[19:24] <Nicky922> Thankfully I haven't run into that one, just some weird crashing with PulseAudio here and there, but nothing truly major or annoying.
[19:25] <Elliria> Yeah. I've currently got her running solidly for the moment [knock on wood].
[19:25] <Nicky922> Although, I do have an issue with VLC, even if I install it from elsewhere, if I doubleclick on a video file too fast in too short a timespan, the ENTIRE DE freezes, only the mouse works, and only a hard reboot fixes it. Damn. I have no idea if it's a widespread problem, happens only on my Kubuntu PC.
[19:27] <Nicky922> Yeah, fingers crossed you don't run into big problems. Timeshift also refused to work for me on Kubuntu no matter what I tried, else I'd just rely on that.
[19:28] <Elliria> Ah, yes, I have the same problem with VLC. That doesn't seem to be a Kubuntu issue, but a VLC issue. Try installing Dragon Player and setting all your movie types to open in that instead. That's what I do. I don't like the interface as much, but at least it works.
[19:29] <Nicky922> Oh, thank you, I had no idea it was VLC, since it didn't seem to happen on my Debian or Arch systems, but that might be pure luck. Will get Dragon player from discover, thank you.
[19:29] <Elliria> The interesting thing about the VLC problem is that it was working FINE when I first installed Kubuntu (and I installed Kubuntu 22.04 the moment it came out), and then one day, BLAM! Freezing.
[19:29] <Elliria> Maybe it is Kubuntu- or KDE-related. In either case, I use the same operating system you do and it misbehaves in the same way for me. Very annoying.
[19:31] <Nicky922> Same here actually... It's like this randomly started happening at some point, and I have no idea which. Did not have this problem for.. I wanna say a couple of months at least, since I've been on 22.04 LTS for a long time. It's definitely really annoying, I can only guess some update somewhere broke the compatibility between plasma and it
[19:31] <Nicky922> somehow... My Debian uses Wayland and this doesn't seem to happen there, so no real clue. =L
[19:35] <Elliria> Ah, Wayland may be what's saving it. We don't have that in Kubuntu. And, yeah, it's been happening for quite some time now, but not since April of 2022.
[19:51] <hateball> Wayland most certainly exists in Kubuntu, I am currently using it :)
[19:52] <Elliria> Does it exist in Kubuntu 22.04 LTS or a later release?
[19:54] <hateball> Elliria: I think on 22.04 you need to install the package plasma-workspace-wayland, not sure it was installed by default back then
[19:55] <hateball> Also I can't vouch for its stability on 22.04. I only started using it as my daily driver with 23.04 when I switched to an AMD GPU, since nVidia was not a great experience
[19:56] <Elliria> Ah, then I won't bother. If it won't work with NVIDIA, it's pointless for me.
[19:57] <hateball> Supposedly there's been some improvements on that front but I think those will not all be included until Kubuntu 24.10
[19:58] <hateball> That said, you can just test it for yourself if you like, out of curiosity and such. You can pick which session you want to use at login time, so X11 will still be there in case Wayland isnt working out.
[20:02] <Elliria> Yeah, I'll put it onto a thumb-drive at some point and boot with it so that it uses my hardware (since the VM won't use my NVIDIA card).
[20:10] <hateball> :)
[21:51] <dantti> hi, is it known that 24.04 Qt6 was compiled agains sslv1? basically any Qt6 app that needs network with ssl won't work
[21:54] <arraybolt3> dantti: are you sure about that? That sounds pretty severe, can you file a bug report or provide instructions for how to reproduce the issue?
[21:55] <dantti> qt.tlsbackend.ossl: Incompatible version of OpenSSL (built with OpenSSL 1.x, runtime version is >= 3.x)
[21:56] <dantti> harder to belive that 6.4 is in 24.04, but worse that 6.4 was built with v1...
[21:57] <dantti> but well I guess Cannonical still doesn't care about Qt...
[22:19] <dantti> nvm, I was actually using the Qt 6.4.1 from TQC... phew, that would be annoying, still pissed as 6.5 breaks behavior and I won't be able to drop 6.4 support now :(
[22:23] <RikMills> dantti: qt6 in ubuntu comes from debian. they are still on 6.4 in unstable, so that is what synced to us
[22:24] <RikMills> they are working on packaging 6.6 currently though
[22:24] <dantti> yeah I know, but since 24.04 is LTS it would be nice if cannonical had sponsored 6.5 which is also LTS...
 how can i get ubuntu pro updates for kubuntu?
[22:52] <bs_> heyy
