[02:06] <IrcsomeBot1> <DarinMiller> hmmm, sounds like a possible bad video driver update...
[02:13] <user|bob76> I'm a rookie Linux user. I can get into root so I am going to try upgrading to 20.04

[02:44] <user|bob76> no luck
[02:48] <user|bob76> I recently updated kubuntu 19.10 and after a restart I log into my user and the screen goes blank and a message "input signal out of range". I can reboot and go into recovery mode. Is there a way I can fix my problem from root shell prompt?

[07:05] <almurick> bonjour, une recommmandation pour une application de chat video ?
[07:14] <IrcsomeBot1> <Franzpow> Jitsi meet works well and it is open source
[07:20] <almurick> thx I will give it a try _
[08:13] <lordievader> Otherwise Big Blue Button works well too, though I'm not sure if it is open-source.
[08:41] <almurick> thanks a lot @lordievader

[09:56] <IrcsomeBot1> <Anarchotaoist> Is the upgrade from Eoan to Fossa suppose to remove Korganizer, Kmail & Kaddressbook? It did on my laptop! (It was a failed upgrade and I had to re-enable sources then apt update in the terminal to get Fossa packages) This was fine, as I do not use the Kontact suit on my work laptop. I want to upgrade my main machine. I very much do use all the Kontact apps and do not want them removed or data deleted! What is the situation
[09:56] <IrcsomeBot1> here? Thanks.

[10:05] <IrcsomeBot1> <Niggolas> If you set them to manually installed, they should not get removed. they are no more standard in Kubuntu, but still available in the repositories. of course, a backup would not be a bad idea...or a snapshot if you use lvm...
[10:07] <IrcsomeBot1> <Anarchotaoist> @Niggolas, How do you set them to be manually installed??
[10:08] <IrcsomeBot1> <Niggolas> If you try to install them with apt, it will refuse to install them, as they are already installed and flag them as manually installed
[10:12] <IrcsomeBot1> <Anarchotaoist> I want to just run the release-upgrader. When the release-upgrader failed on my work machine I had to use apt. I then used autoremove to clean up. Provided the installer works properly this time is there a way for it to make an exception for the Kontact suit?
[10:16] <IrcsomeBot1> <Niggolas> when I updated from 19.10 to 20.04, kmail and kontact where not removed
[10:17] <IrcsomeBot1> <Anarchotaoist> Ok, good to hear!
[10:17] <IrcsomeBot1> <Niggolas> they, are indeed no longer standard apps in Kubuntu, according to the release note, but normally they should not have been removed..
[10:17] <IrcsomeBot1> <Niggolas> Are you on 19.10 or 18.04?
[10:17] <IrcsomeBot1> <Anarchotaoist> 19.10
[10:18] <IrcsomeBot1> <Niggolas> ok,...good luck!

[15:51] <user|96768> good morning. I just downloaded ubuntu server for raspberry pi4, installed and then I ran sudo apt install kubuntu-desktop, it started downloading evrything but when finished and rebooted now is not booting. Screen stop at 25.887867 cloud-init[1510]: cloud-init v. 20.1
[15:51] <user|96768> it says also datasource datasourcenocluod
[15:51] <user|96768> can you help me please_
[15:51] <user|96768> ?
[15:55] <BluesKaj> user|96768, usually ubuntu server is used without a DE and kubuntu desktop on a rpi is probly going to be slow once installed
[15:56] <BluesKaj> user|96768, best place to ask is #raspberrypi chat
[15:58] <user|96768> I followed instructions on ubuntu site :(
[15:58] <user|96768> but would be slow even on a pi4 with 4gb ram ?
[16:00] <masonbee-M> Yeah, they are official instructions (https://ubuntu.com/download/raspberry-pi/thank-you?version=20.04&architecture=arm64+raspi)
[16:00] <masonbee-M> Maybe don't click on that link, it auto download the ubuntu image. Sorry.
[16:03] <oerheks1> indeed, it gives an example to install kubuntu, too heavy for pi4
[16:03] <oerheks1> try mate/xubuntu/lubuntu
[16:04] <masonbee-M> Maybe not, it should be a copy compiled for pi. Kubuntu is light enough if you remove a few things.
[16:06] <BluesKaj> 4GB ram is minimum for desktops so it might be adequate it you remove some apps that you'll never use
[16:07] <BluesKaj> it=if
[16:11] <masonbee-M> user|96768: Assuming it is a Pi 4, you might find some ideas on this thread. https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=245287 Sorry, I can't be more help. I haven't had anything to do with pi for quite a few years.
[16:12] <user|96768> yes, it is a pi 4 4GB
[16:15] <user|96768> I was so happy I could install kubuntu on my pi4 :(
[16:16] <user|96768> but I should still be able to run the kubuntu? problem is that boot stops on that cloud-init datasourcenocloud
[16:22] <oerheks1> mind that rasppi 4 is ARM ..
[16:24] <user|96768> yes
[16:27] <oerheks1> one could try this memory fix https://askubuntu.com/questions/1185560/ubuntu-19-10-on-raspberrypi-4-hangs-on-first-boot -- Set total_mem=3072 in /boot/firmware/usercfg.txt
[16:28] <oerheks1> or /volumes/system-boot/usercfg.txt, see the next post
[16:29] <oerheks1> good luck, i think kubuntu/plasma is too heavy without serious tweaking
[16:31] <Shesh> Hi

[16:32] <Shesh> etc*

[16:47] <hko> from Kubuntu live-usb*
[16:51] <BluesKaj> hko, you can install any desktop with your packaga manager or apt
[16:52] <BluesKaj> package manager that is
[16:52] <BluesKaj> no need for live session to do that
[16:55] <hko> apt doesnt work
[17:08] <BluesKaj> hko, what do you mean apt doesn't work ? , more details please

[17:13] <hko> w8 then
[17:14] <BluesKaj> do you have ubuntu installed on that computer or are you trying to install kubuntu OS to the drive
[17:14] <BluesKaj> ?
[17:16] <BluesKaj> no textspeak please, use real English
[17:20] <hko> This happens with a "apt update" "apt install" and so on.. https://www.henkish.com/2020/05/15/printscreen/
[17:21] <hko> @BluesKaj har kubuntu installerat men kör jusst nu från live cd. samma problem körde direkt från hdd
[17:22] <hko> sorry'!
[17:22] <BluesKaj> cosmic is EOL , you need to do a clean install

[17:23] <BluesKaj> !EOL | hko
[17:23] <ubottu> hko: End-Of-Life is when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop. Make sure to update Ubuntu before it goes EOL so you get updates promptly for newly-discovered security vulnerabilities. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOL and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more info. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades
[17:23] <hko> I installed Kubuntu (only dist i have on USB :/) from scratch
[17:24] <BluesKaj> so you know what to do
[17:24] <oerheks1> hko, cosmic is dead, download a supported iso, 18.04/19.10/20/04

[22:35] <xyz_> Hello!
[22:37] <IrcsomeBot1> <DarinMiller> Hi!
[23:31] <leaftype> I have a bug in Elisa where the music scan won't fill the database (no albums, etc)... I think it's related to this bug: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=397071 and https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=420217
[23:31] <ubottu> KDE bug 397071 in baloo "[Indexing issues] Album entries duplicate when moving folders to a different place. Empty album entries don't get deleted. Inability to restore playlist session." [Normal,Confirmed]
[23:31] <ubottu> KDE bug 420217 in general "No music is indexed" [Normal,Unconfirmed]
[23:32] <leaftype> hey, good ubottu
[23:32] <leaftype> so I'm assuming it might fix/reset if I delete the index/databse for elisa... if I can find it
[23:57] <leaftype> ah, I found it, it was in ~/.local/share/elisa , after renaiming the db file and reloading elisa, it's not populated correctly
