When will this be possible??

kind regards, Sinclair

I've been getting this for a couple of days, searched the mail list but
couldn't find anything. launchpad had some hits but i couldn't find this
exact thing.

Hi,

Kubuntu Automation 2.2 was released today:

=== PPA's status ===

KA 2.2 packages are available in the stable PPA:
<a href="https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ninjas/+archive/ubuntu/dev-tools" title="https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ninjas/+archive/ubuntu/dev-tools">https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ninjas/+archive/ubuntu/dev-tools</a>

KA 2.3 alphas and betas will be available in the dev-tools-testing PPA, right
now it already has 2.3 alpha 1 which provides a nicer HTML documentation
(available in /usr/share/doc/kubuntu-automation/html/):
<a href="https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ninjas/+archive/ubuntu/dev-tools-testing" title="https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ninjas/+archive/ubuntu/dev-tools-testing">https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ninjas/+archive/ubuntu/dev-tools-testing</a>

Right now we are still providing 2.2 packages for xenial, artful, bionic and
cosmic.

I have been trying to install such things as Kpat and wine. I get an
error that dpkg can't find gtk3.pam and that I need to install it. I
can't find anything about gtk3.pam.

I'm against this deal. I don't like a corporate giant jumping into our open source community and exerting its influence with money. We of the free and open source software community need to be alarmed by this and if any of you have code on github, I'd suggest you put it somewhere else. Linux is about being open source and FREE and I don't want anything to do with Microsoft. Microsoft, as you all know, is all about the money and their proprietary software that's weak and virus/malware prone. Their closed environment philosophy is against what we stand for.

Hi,

I am using Kubuntu 14.04 - 64 LTS with a Raid-Controler and Raid 5 and LVM.

Now I installed a new Samsung SSD and wanted install Kubuntu 18.04 - 64 LTS

The installation proceedes but there are big issues with the LVM-Management!

Nevertheless - I tried all kinds auf installations but it fails always,
after the installation, when - i suppose - the boot-record and Grub ist
written.

The bugtracker-Window ist not active so I cant put there any message!

To be shure that it is not my system - I tried the same with Ubuntu and
miracle there were no problems except the same LVM troubbles - but

Details can be found at:

<a href="https://kubuntu.org/news/plasma-5-12-5-bugfix-update-for-kubuntu-18-04-lts-testing-help-required/" title="https://kubuntu.org/news/plasma-5-12-5-bugfix-update-for-kubuntu-18-04-lts-testing-help-required/">https://kubuntu.org/news/plasma-5-12-5-bugfix-update-for-kubuntu-18-04-l...</a>

However, in short, testing and verification is required so that these
updates can be shipped to the Ubuntu archive and so included in 18.04
point release ISOs.

Thank You

Hi,

the first beta of Kubuntu Automation 2.2 is now available in the testing PPA:
<a href="https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ninjas/+archive/ubuntu/dev-tools-testing/" title="https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ninjas/+archive/ubuntu/dev-tools-testing/">https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ninjas/+archive/ubuntu/dev-tools-testing/</a>

The most important change compaed with the previous 2.2 alphas is the debian
merging script rework; that doesn't mean we are ready to merge from debian
right now, but we will be very soon. The merging script still has a couple of
glitches which I would like to solve in next releases, but it's already good
enough to be tested and try to find unknown issues with it,

Cheers.

hey guys, i wanted to put this out there to see if there's a way for it
to be done. you know how in ubuntu gnome (of which is now the standard
ubuntu desktop), you've got dots/dashes over an active icon, say you've
got firefox open and above it's icon there's a dot to show there's an
open window for it. and any subsequent windows for it, it displays more
dots above that icon. is there a way to have that feature in kubuntu?

Hello everybody.

At present, I am working at a correctly functioning Lenovo X220 running at
Kubuntu 18.04 LTS amd 64. The laptop has now one SSD of 128 GB at which the
system is running. There is also a HD of 320 GB. Soon, I will replace that
HD and buy this SSD:
KingSpec P3-1TB 2.5 inch SATA SSD

When I will acquire this one, I'll need a bootable usb stick with Kubuntu
18.04. Have tried several times to create it at a "Sandisk Ultra USB 3.0"
with a view to running from there a "live" system, in order to test it.
Have been using mkusb-dus OR startup-disk-creator to put the ISO at the
stick.

Hello Everybody.

Have added the Aptik repo and installed Aptik along the instructions of
this page:

<a href="http://www.teejeetech.in/p/aptik.html" title="http://www.teejeetech.in/p/aptik.html">http://www.teejeetech.in/p/aptik.html</a>

However, I do not manage to even START Aptik - not via the K-Menu, also not
via ALT-F2, even not from the command line.

Have installed Kubuntu 18.04 LTS at "Eee PC seashell series" together with
Intel ATOM N570 Dual Core CPU.

Yours.
Bas G. Roufs.

I have very slow internet because I live in the foothills of California and
was wondering if there was a way I could buy a usb thumb drive with kubuntu
17.10 lts 64 bitfrom kubuntu site if not wat site? I have an old version of
kumbutu based on Ubuntu 17.04 thank you for your help

This is Valorie replying; I'm in the US so I would be happy to send
you a USB drive with 18.04, the new LTS on it.

On Kubuntu 16.04

Not one of the following will insatall without all the rest, but
all of them interfere with all the rest. No install, no configure,
dependency problems, can't find an un-named directory, etc.

nginx
nginx-core
nginx-full
nginx-light
nginx-extras

What gives?

Hi folks there were a couple of last minute bugs found and fixed,
which required one more respin.

<a href="http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/389/builds" title="http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/389/builds">http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/389/builds</a>

Please rsync and check: the live session and the slideshow at least.

Thanks, one more time!

Valorie

Final -- we hope! Test the heck out of this, folks.

<a href="http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/389/builds" title="http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/389/builds">http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/389/builds</a> <--- only
test results reported on the tracker count! And please file bugs if
necessary. There probably isn't time to fix anything but critical
bugs, but we can definitely make the installer better by. 18.04.1, so
bug reports are still really valuable.

Thanks again,

Valorie

PS: the sooner we finish our testing and report the images ready, the
sooner the 18.04 release can happen tomorrow. So test, test, test!

Hello folks, some bugs are fixed although more are still in train, so
we could (and probably will) see Yet Another Spin.

But this is what we have right now, so if you have a bit of time, please test!

<a href="http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/389/builds" title="http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/389/builds">http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/389/builds</a>

And of course a special call-out to those who have actual i386
computers to test on. Please note somewhere in your test description
that you are testing on hardware, what sort, or only in VMs.

Thanks!

Valorie

Hi folks, we had such a good Beta 2 testing, I'm hoping for testing
awesomeness for the RC. The schedule says

* April 19th: FinalFreeze,  ReleaseCandidate,  LanguagePackTranslationDeadline

* April 26th: FinalRelease,  Ubuntu 18.04

We'll see the images (as usual) at
<a href="http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/384" title="http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/384">http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/384</a>

Naturally, testing the daily ISOs is always welcome, as long as bug
reports are reported as you progress. `ubuntu-bug packagename` is your
friend.

As usual we especially need i386 testing on i386 machines. So get ready!

Valorie

Running Kubuntu 16.04 here.

I'm told that if you want xrandr to do a particular resolution
on boot up, you have to put the command in a file named,
".xprofile". That's nice as far as it goes, but where do I put
the file? Does it need any special treatment like:

chmod a+rwx ~/.xprofile

or whatever?

Bill

Hi folks,

We had a lot of help testing Beta 2 candidates, thank you so much! It
was Hell week for me and the extra testing -- especially the i386
testing helped sooo much.

Our next testing push will be the Release Candidate scheduled for 19
April, so put that on your testing calendar. Of course, testing of the
dailies is always useful as well.

Since some upgrade Libreoffice insist on showing documents 2 pages side
by side. I don't like it one bit. Does anyone know how to get back to 1
page portrait mode?

kind regards, Sinclair

I didn't write to the list yesterday about the candidate ISOs
dropping, because of computer problems here. I lost a SSD (I think)
but created a Bionic upgrade on another disk. So that was a success,
but it takes time to provision a new install, as you know.

Anyway, i386 users, now or never! I mean literally if we don't get
testing on this LTS on i386 hardware, we will NOT be offering it from
here forward.

Hi folks, just a bit of advance notice for everyone who would like to
help us test the heck out of this, to make Kubuntu 18.04 the best ever
LTS!

To get a jump on this, create a login on the quatracker if you don't
have one: <a href="http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/384/builds" title="http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/384/builds">http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/384/builds</a>

Download a daily image to save some time, and then zsync when the Beta
2 candidate drops (you will be able to see it on the qatracker.

hey guys. i was just wondering if there's a telegram group for us kubuntu members. i installed 18.04 lts last night and i was having an issue remembering how to report a bug because i noticed one right away. there's no icon for thunderbird in the discover center nor on the desktop or the internet section of the main menu. i'll try it again tonight and then try to remember how to report it.

Hi,

yesterday I did a major release update do Cutelyst now v2,
I'd like to have it in 18.04 I tried to do this earlier but failed :(
I have done some initial packaging which is probably useless
as I'm not very skilled with packaging, can it still go to 18.04?
If so can someone give me a hand with it?

Thanks,

I'm going to choose March 24 this saturday at 2pm for this meeting to clear
out our phab board and some more tasks.
