IrcsomeBot<Nero2070> Kubuntu is quite good, are you seeing any improvements in performance? Battery life? Are you using x11 or Wayland00:33
IrcsomeBot<Nero2070> Otherwise I've not experienced this (re @gigabenzed: Anyone here know?)00:33

BluesKajHi all11:54
VanUnamed_now im starting to get really angry at kubuntu uh11:55
VanUnamed_every time i do an update, i end up with problems i can't solve11:55
VanUnamed_because I'M NOT A FUCKING PROGRAMMER11:55
VanUnamed_i had it working, i do an update, reboot, and now openvpn "asks me a secret" aka THE FUCKIGN VPN PASSWORD11:56
VanUnamed_that it always did AUTOMATICALLY BEFORE11:56
VanUnamed_i write it in, and it prompts it back up, like "it's wrong"11:56
VanUnamed_now, i fail to have a working vpn, i also lose my income11:56
VanUnamed_so, SOLUTION?11:56
BluesKajcheck with your vpn service and change your password12:02
VanUnamed_it worked before update12:02
VanUnamed_works on my phone12:03
VanUnamed_so clearly my id and passowrd is not the problem12:03
VanUnamed_how do i fix this12:03
VanUnamed_or i have to believe this version has no support whatsoever, and whatever trash update you make have to make people's live awful?12:03
VanUnamed_either it can be fixed in the next hour, or i'll be forced to go back to my 2015 mint and use that, i cannot lose that little income i have because of this12:05
BluesKajdo you kwallet ?12:05
=== VanUnamed_ is now known as VanUnamed

VanUnamednever did12:05
BluesKajok good12:05
BluesKajdo you run autoclean and autoremove after updating upgrading?12:09
VanUnamedno.12:09
BluesKajyou should12:09
VanUnamedi just let the update thing do its thing and rebooted12:09
VanUnamedthats it12:09
BluesKajrun those commands then reboot again12:10

BluesKajare updating with discover or in the terminal? discover is buggt , I avoid it12:13
VanUnamedlets reboot once more12:13
VanUnameddiscover12:13
BluesKajbuggt12:13
BluesKajheh buggy12:14
VanUnamedno luck12:17
VanUnamedstill asks secrets12:17
VanUnamedso, this indeed has no fix12:18
BluesKajwell, you're asking for help over at #linux as well so I'll let those guys help you since their linux knowledge probly greater than mine12:20
VanUnamedanother one hour without vpn and i lose money12:20
VanUnamedso i dont have all day12:20
VanUnamedstill, that's the last time i ever click "update" on anything12:21
VanUnamedeverything will stay the way it is for years, just like i was years without updating anything on mint, and nothing ever broke12:21
BluesKajif you used discover to update that's a mistake, discover is buggy, use the terminal12:22
VanUnamednever mind, i will use neither12:22
VanUnamedevery single time i did any update, i ended up in trouble12:23
VanUnamedso, that's it12:23
VanUnamedupdates damage the system, not improve it12:23
BluesKajnot updating is also a mistake12:23
VanUnamedwell, a mistake that allows me to keep eating12:24
BluesKajthat's your call but not updating can also be dangerous12:25
VanUnamedoh wow, so dangerous12:25
VanUnamedtry to be one month with zero money12:25
VanUnamedthen see what's dangerous12:25
BluesKajare you using openvpn?12:25
VanUnamedyes12:25
BluesKajwhich vpn service?12:26
VanUnamednord12:26
BluesKajnord isn't as linux friendly as PIA which I've been using for 7-8 yrs12:27
VanUnamednord is what i was given free of charge12:27
VanUnamednot my choice12:27
BluesKajthen you have to make the choice yourself. Ask nord support for your issue12:29
BluesKajtry this in the terminal substituting the Nameserver and your username and password:  sudo openvpn --config /etc/openvpn/Nameofvpnserver.ovpn --auth-user-pass /etc/openvpn/login.txt12:39
