=== hylo is now known as JHMbot === NotEickmeyer is now known as Eickmeyer [07:11] How activate kde 6 system sound, like fedora 41. [10:48] I upgraded to kubuntu 24.10 yesterday and my shortkey for switching between activites doesn't work anymore. I had a look in the shortkeys and they offer to define shortkeys for specific activites but not one for switching between activites. Is there a way for me to manually add that back in? [10:52] nevermind I found it. For some reason the hotkey is not under activities but under plasmashell [13:12] Hi all [16:16] hello my login screen sddm is not changing does anyone know how to fix it? [17:01] help?!

[20:17] Omarvx21: dunno myself, I have used it only for snapshots in the past, are you just trying to do a desktop screen recording with audio? [20:20] Omarvx21: hmm I just looked at it, nope, Spectable is simply for screenshots, mind you that "flameshot" is superior IMO for that, which is what I mostly use [20:37] I used to connect to second PC via KRDC, both on Kubuntu 22.04. After I upgraded the 2nd machine to 24.04 connection is not possible any more. Any advice? [20:41] skramer: I haven't used KRDC for connecting to another machine, however, don't expect all libraries to be the same, or the configuration to remain the same, it could have changed in a miniscule way, but enough for that to happen === jta is now known as gorgonzola === gorgonzola is now known as roquefort === roquefort is now known as gorgonzola [20:44] skramer: that said, have you tried asking the guys at #ubuntu-server yet? [20:45] skramer: you can try this page as a checklist -----> https://medium.com/itversity/how-to-set-up-rdp-on-ubuntu-24-04-for-remote-access-b008411727b7 [20:46] could even be a firewall rule [21:02] hey so is any one on that can help me [21:02] just wondering [21:05] joshuamaximus: it helps if you don't quit the channel every 5 minutes after asking [21:06] well sorry [21:06] and yes, someone said a few things, but you were gone [21:06] i was in for 8 mins and no one said any thing [21:06] so yea [21:06] o well [21:06] if some one still wants to help i will listen and stay in chat [21:07] the channel is an IRC channel, not a BBS channel, where you can post asyncronously 3 hours or 5 days later and expect the user to read it [21:07] bbs? [21:07] sadly, many folks seem to forget that now and then [21:08] BBS == Bulletin Board System, pretty much a pasteboard where you can post something, and then come back for any replies [21:08] sorry [21:09] i just thought u could get tech support here [21:11] you can, however bear in mind IRC is very dynamic, users come and go by the minute sometimes by the seconds, and since the planet has 24 timezones, users will vary, say for example right now in the US is daytime, so you get many from there, say at Australia is early in the morning, some are or not here, and so on [21:12] where can i donate to linux for people to reap the pay off me [21:12] never mind [21:15] joshuamaximus: http://pastie.org/p/0pRH4ICokjLR8Wc3XgE0Ui <----- that's while you were gone [21:15] is their a way to set grub to boot to one specific kernel [21:17] so doing that will not remove the kernels i want removed [21:17] i think i only have two kernels right now [21:17] one old that i am on now and the other new [21:17] right [21:18] so how do i remove the new [21:18] joshuamaximus: removing on kernel, does a grub reconfiguration usually IIRC [21:19] well, as suggested run a ----> pkg -l | grep linux-image <--- that's going to list the images, then remove the one you don't want, namely the new one [21:19] woops [21:19] so much for my copy/paste =) [21:19] well, as suggested run a ----> dpkg -l | grep linux-image <--- that's going to list the images, then remove the one you don't want, namely the new one [21:21] found out i have 2 old one new [21:21] joshuamaximus: toss the one you don't want :) [21:21] how [21:21] hmm [21:21] is it a rm command [21:21] joshuamaximus: did you read the paste url? [21:21] you want to get rid of the latest one with sound issues? [21:21] hmmm what's the name of the one you don't want, as listed from the dpkg command? [21:22] uname -a: gives the current one [21:22] remove the higher number, easy peasy [21:22] yea but whats the remove command [21:22] i know u would have to update grub after [21:23] or update grub2 [21:24] is kubuntu on grub 1 or 2 [21:24] my system is a uefi system [21:24] apt-get --purge remove [21:25] linux-image--generic linux-headers--generic [21:25] well, as oerheks said, but prefix it with "sudo" [21:25] then sudo apt-get --purge autoremove for the rest that stays behind [21:26] one may note that "apt" supports "apt" alone, without the -get suffix =) [21:26] update-grub and voila [21:26] yea [21:26] thanks [21:26] joshuamaximus: mine is too UEFI, so :) [21:26] cool [21:28] joshuamaximus: I mean, all machines in the last 15 years or so, are UEFI, and latest ones, as in the last 4 years, don't even have a DVD drive or even an HDMI port [21:28] aaa ok [21:28] i noticed [21:29] lol [21:29] is all USB-C baby!! [21:29] i see [21:29] well, usb-c and usb3.2 ports [21:30] hmm [21:30] yea [21:31] thanks for the help really its a life saver [21:31] and eases my mind [21:31] :) [21:31] reboot! [21:31] ok [21:34] it didn't default to the kernel i wanted [21:35] so would u be more than happy to help me get sound fixed [21:35] so you did not boot in your previous kernel with sound, when you removed the latest kernel? [21:35] .. [21:35] no [21:35] cuz it was still their [21:35] how the heck? the kernel is gone and is still loading? [21:35] lol [21:36] sorry [21:36] * oerheks facepalms [21:36] lol [21:36] teenie neenie teenie neenie teenie neenie "do not adjust your TV, there's nothing wrong with it, you have just entered, the Twilight Zone" [21:36] i can boot in the kernel i want but it takes too many steps [21:36] lol [21:37] joshuamaximus: may be is still there, check dpkg -l | grep linux-image [21:38] it says its unsigned [21:38] but its still their [21:38] joshuamaximus: did you do a "purge" as oerheks suggested? [21:38] so do i have to put the whole wording in it [21:38] yes [21:40] yeap [21:41] hold on let me reboot into the kernel i want then remove the one i am on now [21:42] joshuamaximus: -----> sudo apt purge NAME-OF-PACKAGE-HERE [21:48] wb joshuamaximus , any good news? [21:49] after i did a grub update it put the lastest kernel back in [21:49] i think [21:50] but thanks for the welcome back [21:51] hmmmm [21:52] well let me see if i was just seeing things [21:53] I think I know what's cooking, the system is doing an autoupdate, which is its default behaviour, so if you have an old package and finds a new one in the repository, it goes ahead, "without asking you", and gets the new without you looking [21:53] i see [21:53] in which case, redo the "sudo apt purge", however, turn off autoupdates [21:54] mind you that's one of the things I do right after a install, I turn off autoupdates, I only updates packages manually, so I know which is which [21:58] so [21:58] how do i make sure all auto updates are off [21:59] linux-image-6.8.0-50-generic [21:59] this is the one that is working [21:59] 6.8.0-50.51 [22:00] linux-image-6.8.0-51-generic 6.8.0-51.52 [22:00] thats the bad one [22:01] so you wan to remove 6.8.0-51.52 [22:03] joshuamaximus: http://pastie.org/p/1oT7vBBdFct6igJzfkwEmJ <----- adding that to that file [22:03] oh pinning, that works too [22:04] sorry [22:04] didn't mean to flood [22:07] now [22:07] turn off the autoupdates, then remove the kernel again [22:07] in synaptic how can i remove the kernel i don't want [22:07] do the update-grub too btw [22:08] joshuamaximus: you have to run synaptic as "root" first off, the rest is simple, just do a quick "find", ctrl-f, to find it and then select it and right-click it [22:09] well, I think you may not need to run synaptic as root, it may prompt for password when trying to do anything "root", if it doesn't, simply run it as root [22:11] ok [22:11] brb bathroom break === tomreyn_ is now known as tomreyn === Fufu is now known as FuturePilot [22:12] joshuamaximus: make sure you put the toilet lid back down, also wash your hands :P [22:15] lol [22:15] in what kernel are you now? lol [22:15] lol [22:15] the working one [22:17] aplay /dev/urandom [22:17] just checking [22:27] joshuamaximus: so, are we golden?

[22:40] hmmm [22:41] joshuamaximus: well, there's no need to Lock it, since it was never gone in the first place [22:41] joshuamaximus: simply remove the ones you don't want, the new ones, and set autoupdate off [22:42] i did [22:42] but [22:43] it still wants to install the new kernel [22:43] after what u said to do [22:44] hmmmm [22:44] joshuamaximus: well, I'm thinking you never turn off autoupdates :) [22:44] do i need to reboot? [22:44] joshuamaximus: after turning them off, yes [22:45] so brb
