yrlnrySince I replaced my old Kubuntu with Numbt, Inkscape is doing something funny.  Its windows done refresh properly.  Sometimes the drawing area includes parts of the windows underneath, or of the desktop image.  I think my X server is misconfigured somehow but I don't know what to search for to find out how to fix it.00:03
yrlnryI have screenshots if anyone thinks that will help.00:03

yrlnryI very dimly remember that this might have something to do with the nvidia driver, or maybe with the settings that have to do with how X interacts with the nvidia, but I don't remember any of the details.00:07
oerhekswhat is numbt?00:07

yrlnrySorry, I've become very bad at typing in my old age.00:07
oerheksoh oke00:07
oerhekswhat is wrong exactly? those screenshots do not give a clue00:09
oerhekssome items appear as blocks00:09
yrlnryFor example, in https://plover.com/~mjd/misc/ss/Screenshot_20241002_184009.png there are two Inkscape windows.  The small one displays my drawing, which is a bunch of gray boxes.  The large one is  not displaying that.  Instead it contains my desktop background image.  It should also have some gray boxes.00:10
oerheksmaybe precview does not calculate and draw00:12

yrlnryIn https://plover.com/~mjd/misc/ss/Screenshot_20241002_184040.png you can see that the topmost Inkscape window is completely misrendered.  It has three color picker bars in various places.  The upper and lower parts are displaying the same portion of the diagram.  The bottom part is not displaying the drawing at all, it is displaying my desktop background again.00:12
oerheksonly output does00:12
yrlnryI'm not sure what you mean by "preview".00:12
yrlnryI think I'm using the nouveau drivers and that previously I was able to fix rendering problems like this by using the non-free nvidia drivers instead.00:16
yrlnryI don't know if that advice is still current (or if I'm remembering right!)00:16
oerheksworth a check00:17
yrlnryI think I've installed the nvidia driver and rebooted and that X is now using it in place of nouvear, but I still have the same rendering problem, unfortunately.00:47

IrcsomeBot<ParabolicW> I also had a problem not immediatelly after install but after a consecutive update etc. I couldn’t go after sddm. So i went into terminal reinstalling and upgrading till resolved. Now its ok. (re @IrcsomeBot: <brmassa> `/lib/x86_*/libkwin.so.6`)15:50
RikMillsguruprasad: thank you for that :)15:56
IrcsomeBot<alch3miq> Hi all16:04
Guest54buonasera a tutti16:34
Guest54volevo qualche informazione riguardo la possibilitĂ  di far funzionare una scheda audio con la gameport16:36
Guest54ovvero le vecchie porte a 15pin per collegare gamepad e volanti ormai datati16:36
Guest54qualcuno in linea16:38
Guest54ciao nuovo utente16:40
Guest54good evening, kubuntu supports the use of the old gameport (db15 pin) to be able to connect the old gampads and steering wheels from the 90s... for a retrogame project16:48
IrcsomeBot<P1xelman> i did it like this:17:21
IrcsomeBot<P1xelman> sudo add-apt-repository ppa:pipewire-debian/pipewire-upstream17:21

IrcsomeBot<P1xelman> sudo add-apt-repository ppa:pipewire-debian/wireplumber-upstream17:21
IrcsomeBot<P1xelman> sudo apt update17:21
IrcsomeBot<alch3miq> Hi, I have a question how to get Kubuntu to work with Yubikey 5, after installing Yubikey Manager it does not detect the key?17:41
