IrcsomeBot<Zebraherz> You cannot file a bug-report against the installer either from the installed system or from the live-iso. Ubuntu-bug is apparently only interested in "packages". It`s a pain for a normal user to send a bug report that concerns something more specific than installed and maintained packages. At least, I don`t know how. (re @IrcsomeBot: <valorie> I guess I would file it against the installer, which is now calamares)10:11

robertosfieldI have installed Kubuntu 24.04 over the top of a prior Ubuntu 22.04 ext4 partition on my Acer SWIFT 3 (Intel Corei7) laptop.  After installation the network is working fine, but when I try to run firefox from the menu/taskbar or Konsole it never runs.  When I run firefox in the console I get a the message:12:43
robertosfieldContent12:43
robertosfieldContent snap command-chain for /snap.fuirefix/4259/gnome-platform/command-chain/desktop-launch not found: ensure slot is connected12:44
robertosfieldI'm now using my Kubuntu 22.04 desktop to message as I obvious can't use the latop, so having to manually type in the error message.12:51
robertosfieldI search online for the error and see that others have hit this a well dating back before 24.04, general recommendation is to do12:51
robertosfieldsudo snap remove firefox12:51
robertosfieldsudo snap install firefox12:51
robertosfieldBut this doesn't make any difference, I still get the same error on the console.  Rebooting doesn't make a difference.12:51
robertosfieldI also tried install chromium-browser and while it also installed without any errors I get the same issue - it doesn't run and in the console it reports the same issue. So I tried installed both firefox and chromium-browser using apt-get install but this doesn't work either.12:51
BluesKajHi all13:14
user|82Hello, I can't seem to find where to change the "Lock screen" when I lock the computer:(15:28
user|82the picture15:29
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> System Settings -> Workplace Behavior -> Screen Locking -> click the Appearance (Configure) button.15:37
user|82That's what I did but it didn't change. DO i have to reboot for it take affect?15:38
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Checking here.. just a sec...15:38
user|82I appreciate the help15:39
user|82when i lock the screen it flashes the new picture I want but reverts to the one already applied.15:40
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Hmmm,. worked fine here without a reboot.  Which version of Kubuntu?15:40
user|8222.04 KDE Plasma version 5.24.715:40
user|82i'm new to linux so apologies15:40
user|82kde frameworks version 5.92.015:41
user|82qt version 5.15.315:41
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> No apology needed! I don't have a 22.04 version to test.  I only have 23.10 and 24.04.15:41
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> You may have encountered a bug.  Do you have the Kubuintu PPA installed?15:42
user|82I honestly don't know how to tell15:42
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/ubuntu/backports15:42
user|82i updated it:D15:44
user|82maybe reboot it after?15:45
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> I tested 23.10 and 23.10 also worked as expected.  After adding the backports PPA and update, you man need to log out/in or restart for the updates to take full affect.15:45
user|82I'll try that, thank you so much15:46
p01nt3rhi, i'm on kubuntu 24.04 and want to connect my pc-audio with whatsapp, any ideas?16:32
p01nt3rso i can talk between whatsapp from android and pc16:32
p01nt3rthe whatsapp clients dont allow calling16:33
p01nt3r(under linux)16:33
IrcsomeBot<schickotronics> did you try kdeconnect?16:33
p01nt3rnot yet16:33
p01nt3rno devices there16:34
IrcsomeBot<Nero2070> TZDG16:35
IrcsomeBot<Nero2070> TZD616:35
IrcsomeBot<schickotronics> you need to install kdeconnect on phone and pc16:36
p01nt3rit seems to be connected16:40
p01nt3rbut how can i do a call?16:40
p01nt3rhow can i connect maybe whatsapp now with the pc?16:46
p01nt3rfrom the smartphone16:47
IrcsomeBot<schickotronics> I do notuse whatsapp16:47
p01nt3rwhat possibilities are there to record an audio-conversation via android-phones on kubuntu?16:49
tomreyntake this question, replace "kubuntu" by "some other system" and see if you find any results first of all.16:52
IrcsomeBot<schickotronics> you should explore by yourself what's possible with kdeconnect (re @IrcsomeBot: <p01nt3r> from the smartphone)16:55
nuxilp01nt3r, , i guess you could setup bluetooth and steam the audio to the pc, if your pc has bluetooth aswell.17:07
nuxilamd on the pc you can use several apps to record audio. example Audacity once the correct input is selected.17:07
p01nt3ri want to use obs studio for the record17:09
nuxilyeah sure.. whatever floats your boat.17:10
p01nt3rcan't see any bluetooth-audio-device in kubuntu17:14
nuxildoes you pc have a blootooth chip or a dongle ?17:14
p01nt3rdongle17:14
nuxil:\17:14
nuxilso... "lsusb" lists it ?17:16
p01nt3ryes17:17
nuxilidk. do you see it on the phone ? is there some bluetooth service you need to start ?17:18
p01nt3rpc and phone are connected.17:22
p01nt3ri read on a site that the pc gives android-audios's output but it doesnt work for me17:24
nuxilcheck on phone what type of connection is it.. does it say something use for media or audio on it?17:24
nuxilthen go into audio setting on the pc. and see if its listed17:24
nuxilp01nt3r, yea.. that might as well be.17:25
p01nt3rthere are no settings on the phone for bluetooth17:26
nuxil:(17:26
nuxilyou can do a ugly HW hack :p.. if your phone has headphone output.. you can create a custom cable so you just plug the phone directly into the pc :p17:26
nuxilinto linein or mic. should work. but is far from a optimal solution.17:27
IrcsomeBot<schickotronics> often cable is the most reliable👍17:28
IrcsomeBot<Nero2070> Just tried Kubuntu coming from manjaro plasma KDE that failed to work for me...17:38
IrcsomeBot<Nero2070> Realised that kubuntu is quite good with power management.17:38
IrcsomeBot<Nero2070> I'm trying to get system information like memory, CPU , Battery usage pattern like in manjaro KDE plasma ... Any ideas will be highly appreciated17:38
IrcsomeBot<Nero2070> Thanks17:38
andreios_Thanks, i just build it from source (krecorder 23.08.5) dependencies needed: cmake qtquickcontrols2-5-dev qtdeclarative5-dev libkf5windowsystem-dev libkf5coreaddons-dev libkf5i18n-dev  kirigami-addons-dev kirigami2-dev17:41
nuxilNero2070 what do you mean? have you poked around in /proc/stat /proc/cpuinfo  /proc/meminfo ? or even in /sys/class/power_supply/*17:47
