[00:33] Kubuntu is quite good, are you seeing any improvements in performance? Battery life? Are you using x11 or Wayland [00:33] Otherwise I've not experienced this (re @gigabenzed: Anyone here know?) === karenthedorf is now known as Guest1047 === karenw is now known as karenthedorf [11:54] Hi all [11:55] now im starting to get really angry at kubuntu uh [11:55] every time i do an update, i end up with problems i can't solve [11:55] because I'M NOT A FUCKING PROGRAMMER [11:56] i had it working, i do an update, reboot, and now openvpn "asks me a secret" aka THE FUCKIGN VPN PASSWORD [11:56] that it always did AUTOMATICALLY BEFORE [11:56] i write it in, and it prompts it back up, like "it's wrong" [11:56] now, i fail to have a working vpn, i also lose my income [11:56] so, SOLUTION? [12:02] check with your vpn service and change your password [12:02] it worked before update [12:03] works on my phone [12:03] so clearly my id and passowrd is not the problem [12:03] how do i fix this [12:03] or i have to believe this version has no support whatsoever, and whatever trash update you make have to make people's live awful? [12:05] 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 this [12:05] do you kwallet ? === VanUnamed_ is now known as VanUnamed [12:05] use [12:05] no, i don't [12:05] never did [12:05] ok good [12:09] do you run autoclean and autoremove after updating upgrading? [12:09] no. [12:09] you should [12:09] i just let the update thing do its thing and rebooted [12:09] thats it [12:10] run those commands then reboot again [12:10] what commands [12:12] sudo apt autremove and sudo apt autoclean [12:13] are updating with discover or in the terminal? discover is buggt , I avoid it [12:13] lets reboot once more [12:13] discover [12:13] buggt [12:14] heh buggy [12:17] no luck [12:17] still asks secrets [12:18] so, this indeed has no fix [12:20] well, 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 mine [12:20] another one hour without vpn and i lose money [12:20] so i dont have all day [12:21] still, that's the last time i ever click "update" on anything [12:21] everything will stay the way it is for years, just like i was years without updating anything on mint, and nothing ever broke [12:22] if you used discover to update that's a mistake, discover is buggy, use the terminal [12:22] never mind, i will use neither [12:23] every single time i did any update, i ended up in trouble [12:23] so, that's it [12:23] updates damage the system, not improve it [12:23] not updating is also a mistake [12:24] well, a mistake that allows me to keep eating [12:25] that's your call but not updating can also be dangerous [12:25] oh wow, so dangerous [12:25] try to be one month with zero money [12:25] then see what's dangerous [12:25] are you using openvpn? [12:25] yes [12:26] which vpn service? [12:26] nord [12:27] nord isn't as linux friendly as PIA which I've been using for 7-8 yrs [12:27] nord is what i was given free of charge [12:27] not my choice [12:29] then you have to make the choice yourself. Ask nord support for your issue [12:39] try 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.txt === VanUnamed_ is now known as VanUnamed [15:50] I had that issue once before.
