-ubottu:#kubuntu- KDE bug 469315 in plasmashell "System Monitor Plasmoid has artifacts with Intel Integrated Graphics in Wayland" [Normal, Resolved: Duplicate]00:05
LoreThank you very much, so are you the same person?: mparillo, _buraq00:07
Loresarnold, this is how it looks like: https://i.imgur.com/T658xOR.mp400:07
mparilloIt was marked as a duplicate, and apparently fixed with KDE Frameworks 6.100:07
LoreI'll try searching for it more. It must be a chart rendering bug.00:07
mparilloI am not _buraq00:07
LoreOh! I am sorry, mparillo.00:08

-ubottu:#kubuntu- KDE bug 469315 in plasmashell "System Monitor Plasmoid has artifacts with Intel Integrated Graphics in Wayland" [Normal, Resolved: Duplicate]00:08
LoreWe just had a discussion about filling a bug report and then you share a message with a created one.00:08
LoreYet, yours already exists.00:08
mparilloI think your symptom matched mine.00:09
Loremparillo, this is the exact same issue, indeed, considering the attached image.00:09
mparilloSo I pointed to the bug I opened months ago.00:09
LoreI'll comment on the bug, too.00:09
sarnoldLore: *so* crunchy :)00:09
mparilloIt will not do you any good.00:09
mparilloMy bug was marked as a duplicate.00:09
LoreGot it...00:10

-ubottu:#kubuntu- KDE bug 434462 in frameworks-kquickcharts "Weird horizontal lines in charts" [Normal, Resolved: Fixed]00:10
mparilloAnd the bug they referred my bug to has been marked as resolved, fixed, with KDE Frameworks 6.100:10
mparilloAre you on KDE Frameworks 6.1?00:10
LoreConsidering the issue I mentioned yesterday of Kubuntu 22.04.2 installed for Kernel 5, it's KDE Framework 5.92.0 here.00:12
mparilloSo my guess is you will not get much support from KDE developers.00:13
LoreTo clarify, the reason why I am on this machine on Kubuntu with Kernel 5, is that Kernel 6 doesn't work on it due to some regression in graphics I believe where the machine just freeze randomly and becomes dead waiting for another full reset. I'll report the possible Kernel bug in the near future I hope, and but this weekend I had to get this exact machine at least working in any modern enough OS.00:14
sarnoldyeah, if they already fixed it, they'll just tell you to switch to an OS that updates faster, and oh by the way they have one of those .. :)00:14
LoreRoger that.00:15
LoreThank you very much, mparillo, for the response and clarification!00:15
Loremparillo, oh, it's Xorg/X11 here. Though, I guess it's irrelevant considering the shader code change which is pure math logic: https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/kquickcharts/-/commit/3e2b4d1d5114b685e958cac3d5d511cf68718a0200:27
-ubottu:#kubuntu- Commit 3e2b4d1 in frameworks/kquickcharts "linechart: Use fwidth of the point instead of sdf to avoid conditional fwidth"00:27
mparilloUnderstood, but at the time of my original bug report, Wayland was less accepted than it is now, so I thought it was worth highlighting in the title of the bug report (as well as the paste from kinfocenter).01:53
mparilloNow it is the reverse. I would be surprised if the KDE developers would spend much time on an x11 bug that was not reproducible on Wayland.01:55

_buraqstrange bug in kubuntu 24.04. i press fn+left cursor to lower the brightness, the screen goes totally black06:27
_buraqthe same happens for fn+right cursor06:29
_buraqsetting the kernel parameter acpi_backlight=native makes it so that the screen doesn't go blank, but the brightness doesn't change at all now06:33
_buraqoh the nostalgy; i can still control the brightness by echoing values into /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness06:43
Lore_buraq, how is that nostalgia? It's how any character driver works modules/drivers create during initialization developed by manufacturers.06:48
Lorecharacter device*06:49
_buraqby turning the screen blank?06:49
_buraqi ran into this in 201806:49
_buraq(that the brightness can't be controlled)06:49
_buraqnow i can't set a global shortcut to fn+left cursor in system settings if i want to fix it myself06:50
LoreIf the screen does not operate correctly with raw input sent to the character device created by the driver, then it's likely not OS issue but the driver.06:50
LoreYou should check whether the correct driver gets loaded for the required monitor model.06:51
_buraqare you a chat bot?06:51
LoreFuck you, too.06:51
_buraqlol06:51
LoreModern monitors normally support EDID.06:52
LoreI.e. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_Display_Identification_Data06:52
LoreYou should be able to get info about the monitor device via this interface. E.g. via https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/bionic/man1/get-edid.1.html06:52
_buraqif i press input and then try to add the new shortcut with fn+left cursor, nothing happens06:52
_buraqit's as if it has been defined for some other ppurpose06:53
LoreAs mentioned above, if the monitor does not operate correctly with more lower level signals like using the mentioned character device, then sure thing the shortcuts won't result in anything appropriate, too.06:54
LoreAs mentioned, again, it could be the driver issue.06:54
_buraqshit son, i've been using linux since 1994. try concentrating on the technical details instead of pseudo talk06:55
_buraqi said i can control the brightness through /sys/class/backlight06:55
LoreExcuse me?06:55
_buraqit's just something has changed with fn key handling06:56
LoreYou said you can control it. You did not say it controls it correctly like setting the require brightness.06:56
_buraqnow when i press fn+left cursor the screen goes directly blank06:56
Lorerequired*06:56
_buraq08:48 < _buraq> oh the nostalgy; i can still control the brightness by echoing values into /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness06:57
Lore> You said you can control it. You did not say it controls it correctly like setting the require brightness.06:57
LoreTurning "blank" and "not blank" could be considered "controlling", too, and hence I misunderstood it.06:58
_buraqi'll check the bug reports06:59
Lore_buraq, to clarify, did the shortcut work in any other Linux?07:00
_buraqit worked in earlier ubuntu releases07:00
_buraqthere's a brightness slider in the sys tray. that works07:01
_buraqor how do you call the lower right icons?07:01
_buraqsys tray is from windows07:01
LoreI see. It should "system tray", indeed.07:07
Loreshould be*07:07
LoreIf the slider works, then you're right, the shortcuts send invalid values to the driver/interface.07:08
_buraqi found here a mention of evtest https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/190730807:10
-ubottu:#kubuntu- Launchpad bug 1907308 in linux (Ubuntu) "screen brightness up/down keys not working in LENOVO IdeaPad 5 15IIL05" [Undecided, Confirmed]07:10
_buraqwhen i run that as "sudo evtest" the fn+left cursor doesn't output anything07:11
_buraqanyway the brightness slider in the system tray works07:14
_buraqcan somebody test whether setting fn+left cursor works as a shortcut for anything in system settings / shortcuts?07:31
_buraq(kubuntu 24.04)07:37
_buraqor maybe it's another key for you. my brightness control is in left/right cursor keys07:42
_buraqproblem solved by removing the acpi_osi= and acpi_backlight= kernel parameters08:10
_buraqnow the brightness control works properly08:10
LoreSo, those parameters settings seem quite custom in their places, and probably were not expected to be set in the first place.09:40
veliyankodei installed kubuntu 24.04 yesterday. do you have some plans on making wayland the default?10:30

Guest90hi, I am running kubuntu 24.04. How to make panel theme to become light theme? The default kubuntu theme makes the panel dark color. I tried the Breeze theme which should be light theme, but the panel color is still dark black. Thanks.18:58
