[03:01] <IrcsomeBot> <Omarvx211> isn't there a kdeconnect in the IOS app store? (re @IrcsomeBot: <xrandr> Hello. How can I browse my iPhone in KDE?)
[06:14] <LordDragon> hey all
[06:15] <LordDragon> do the current releases of kubuntu have built in LDAC bluetooth support? I know kubuntu can be made to use it using PPA pipewire install methods etc, but ive seen some distros that have it preconfigured out of the box
[07:06] <nuxil> when i move window's on the desktop. it snaps and resizes to the screen edges (top/bottom) and or left/right side.

[07:07] <nuxil> what button did i press to enable this awefull behavioure ?
[07:07] <nuxil> how do i remove this behavioure ?
[08:24] <nuxil> if i run this code.. https://bpa.st/MSCQ the windows in kde will snap to edges when moved. like Shift is pressed all the time. however this code does not affect anything else. as in. if press 1 its not becoming ! as it would if i physically pressed shift and 1 key
[08:24] <nuxil> why does this only affect the moving of the windows. and not anything else.

[09:57] <VanUnamed> ciao ilvipero_ , italia?
[11:04] <ilvipero_> VanUnamed hello. Yes I am Italian. I don't live in Italy though :)
[11:05] <VanUnamed> im italian, and also dont live in italy
[11:05] <VanUnamed> hows things?
[11:06] <ilvipero_> I am doing great, thank you. by the way if you see the "ilvipero" nick, that is my primary one. I am currently using that one to test matrix-irc bridging
[11:06] <ilvipero_> what are you up to? VanUnamed?
[11:07] <VanUnamed> i see!
[11:07] <VanUnamed> im ok too. im relaxing and avoiding the heat outside
[11:07] <VanUnamed> soon i will have ore time to fix up kubuntu on the other laptop
[11:07] <VanUnamed> now i have a sketchy old mint version
[11:08] <ilvipero_> Kubuntu 24.04 is an absolute beauty
[11:12] <ilvipero_> to be fair, all the Ubuntu flavours have done a fantastic job this time around with the LTS.I keep all the flavours in virtual machines.
[11:15] <guruprasad> Kubuntu 24.04 rocks and I can't wait for 24.10 and Plasma 6!
[12:11] <nuxil> i have mixed feelings.
[12:46] <BluesKaj> Hi all

[18:48] <IrcsomeBot> <Sayanth> RszM
[18:50] <bprompt> hmm?
[18:55] <KarenTheDorf> Hmm, so my issue with the framebuffer of vt1 corrupting itself after sleep or vt switch. It also can uncorrupt itself if I switch away and back again? Wut.
[18:59] <bprompt> w0t?
[19:03] <karenw> Seems like going to vt2 (Display manager?) and back corrupts the framebuffer. Going to vt3 (text console) and back fixes it. But then I went vt2->vt3 and it just locked up completely (appologies if anyone replied to me, I had to restart because of that)... Yuck. Wish I knew what the problem was.

[19:07] <IrcsomeBot> <P_tech09> When to expect Kubuntu 24.04.1?
[19:09] <bprompt> IrcsomeBot: beginning of August most likely
[19:09] <bprompt> KarenTheDorf: vt2 who?   I mean, hmmm, reading that looks like a had a doobie or something
[19:11] <KarenTheDorf> bprompt: Relation to my earlier message about how the display gets corrupted when resuming from sleep or switching vterm.
[19:15] <bprompt> KarenTheDorf: hmmm, using Konsole?   it may just be the terminal app, no?
[19:15] <bprompt> as opposed to the whole desktop or window manager
[19:16] <KarenTheDorf> No I mean the screens you get to with alt+ctrl+F#
[19:16] <KarenTheDorf> Like Alt-Ctrl-F1 takes me to my plasma(Wayland) session, Alt+Ctrl+F2 takes me to what looks like SDDM, Alt+Ctrl+F3 takes me to a text login prompt, etc.
[19:17] <KarenTheDorf> Sometimes going to the text prompt and back fixes the corruption, othertimes it makes the system hang completely.
[19:22] <bprompt> KarenTheDorf: that sounds like hmmm videocard driver issue, and I'm not sure Suspend works well on any OS
[19:26] <KarenTheDorf> Yeah, this laptop is so old it used radeon not the newer driver.
[19:26] <KarenTheDorf> *uses
[19:26] <bprompt> KarenTheDorf: solution:  don't use suspend :), or hibernate :), just lock the screen heheh
[19:28] <KarenTheDorf> Yep! That's a bit power intensive and warm though.
[19:28] <wolfbane> Hi everyone
[19:28] <bprompt> hi wolfbane
[19:30] <wolfbane> I have been using linux for a about a year, and kubnutu seems to work pretty well with my dell 3505 insperion laptop.  Does anyone know of any good RPG's that are free?
[19:33] <bprompt> RPG == rocket propelled granades?   those are dangerous you know
[19:34] <bprompt> wolfbane: I mean, have you looked yet? what are you after specifically, besides the RPGness?
[19:37] <wolfbane> no i mean RPG's as in games
[19:37] <wolfbane> I looked in the software center of  Kubuntu, but there's nothing really there
[19:44] <bprompt> hmmm not sure if I ever played any rpg games myself, so I'm not a great source for that =), played supermario with my niece though
[19:44] <wolfbane> ok..  a nintendo fan lol
[19:45] <bprompt> well, not a nintendo fan, is what my niece had :P
[19:45] <valorie> lots of steam games available I hear.....
[19:46] <bprompt> and I wasn't playing it per se, was making sure she knew it
[19:46] <bprompt> !steam
[19:46] <ubottu> Valve have officially announced that they are developing Steam and are working with !ubuntu during their development, see http://blogs.valvesoftware.com/linux/steamd-penguins/ for further details, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Valve for install instructions, you can also join #ubuntu-steam for discussion.
[19:46] <valorie> my most-played game being Klondike, so......
[19:46] <KarenTheDorf> First link is 403
[19:47] <bprompt> !rpg
[19:47] <bprompt> !info rpg
[19:47] <ubottu> Package rpg does not exist in noble
[19:47] <valorie> also lotsa stuff made for windows available though flatpack or WINE/Bottles
[19:47] <KarenTheDorf> But yes, steam works well and there are both native games and their windows-emulation layer is *very* good compared to rolling your own with wine etc.
[19:47] <bprompt> wolfbane: right, many folks use WINE to play steam games
[19:48] <bprompt> !wine | wolfbane
[19:48] <ubottu> wolfbane: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu
[19:48] <KarenTheDorf> If you are not ideologicallly opposed to propietary software of course
[19:48] <wolfbane> oh ok
[19:48] <valorie> I run a Win-only genealogy program called Rootmagic on this machine
[19:48] <valorie> Sysinfo for 'valorie-oryxpro': Running inside KDE Plasma 5.27.11 on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS (Noble Numbat) powered by Linux 6.8.0-31-generic, CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7700HQ CPU @ 2.80GHz at 3399-3403/3800 MHz, RAM: 13611/32045 MB, Storage: 914/1060 GB, 343 procs, 96.04h up
[19:49] <bprompt> wolfbane: that said, lame as this may sound, you can always run a Virtual Machine and install windows and run who knows in it
[19:49] <valorie> yep, have done that as well
[19:50] <bprompt> wolfbane: can also install Hackintosh in a VM too, namely macOSX
[19:50] <valorie> I could (and have) run Gramps, but ..... not what I need
[19:50] <bprompt> !info gramps
[19:50] <ubottu> gramps (5.1.6+dfsg-1ubuntu1, noble): Genealogical research program. In component universe, is optional. Built by gramps. Size 6,810 kB / 44,100 kB
[19:50] <wolfbane> I don't have a iso of the Mac OSI haven't used a Mac in a while
[19:51] <valorie> which is syncing with my Ancestry.com & FamilySearch.org trees
[19:51] <wolfbane> why are you calling him gramps?
[19:52] <valorie> Gramps is rather ugly in Kubuntu - I just prefer how KDE applications look and work
[19:52] <valorie> vs. gnome
[19:53] <valorie> but whatever - it doesn't sync with anything, so.....
[19:53] <bprompt> you mean, gramps is using Gtk =)
[19:54] <nuxil> gtk was ok.. until 3 came along :p
[19:55] <KarenTheDorf> This discussion made me look up the propietary drivers for my machine. Last update was for Ubuntu 14.04 in September 2015. I'm going to assume mesa is better at this point lmao.
[19:57] <bprompt> ubuntu 14.04?   come on  now
[19:57] <bprompt> KarenTheDorf: or simply don't use suspend or hibernate
[19:58] <KarenTheDorf> bprompt: As I said, that's what I'm doing. I'm not installing a 10 year old propietry driver lmao
[19:58] <bprompt> KarenTheDorf:  ohh yeah, the power bit you mentioned, hmm there's a command to "park the HDD"  hmmm
[19:59] <bprompt> !info hdparm | KarenTheDorf
