[12:09] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[13:19] <IrcsomeBot> <Oov> How can i check? (re @IrcsomeBot: <fusionfuture[m]> IrcsomeBot: Is it set?)
[13:21] <fusionfuture> Oov: check what?
[13:21] <fusionfuture> I remembered
[13:22] <fusionfuture> run `kcmshell5 kcm_kwin_effects`
[13:22] <fusionfuture> Find Overview effect
[13:23] <fusionfuture> Click the settings button
[13:23] <fusionfuture> There are some global shortcuts listed in the dialog
[14:04] <IrcsomeBot> <Oov> Wich one is it
[14:13] <IrcsomeBot> <Oov> Thank u
[14:28] <IrcsomeBot> <npeippo> I tried googling but couldn't find anything useful... Is there any way of enabling the good old Desktop Cube effect in KDE?
[14:29] <IrcsomeBot> <npeippo> Seems like they've removed it officially
[14:36] <oerheks> Plasma 5.23 no longer has the cube animation. https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=443410
[14:36] <ubottu> KDE bug 443410 in kwin "Please restore the Desktop Cube switching effect" [Wishlist, Resolved: Duplicate]
[14:39] <IrcsomeBot> <npeippo> Ok, so presumably nothing I can do at the moment :/
[15:51] <IrcsomeBot> <Oov> The sound is engaged in the video when i puse it then start it again with vlc
[16:07] <IrcsomeBot> <Oov> The sound is oscillates in the video when i puse it then start it again with vlc
[18:18] <IrcsomeBot> <Oov> Is kubuntu 20.04 faster than 22.04?
[18:21] <enigma9o7[m]> I think the new plasma version is supposed to be more efficient and has some issues/bugs resolved. So no, it shouldn't be.
[18:21] <enigma9o7[m]> Its unlikely you'd notice speed differences between the tho, but perhaps others have opinion....
[18:23] <IrcsomeBot> <Oov> Why 22.04 use more memory? (re @IrcsomeBot: <enigma9o7[m]> Its unlikely you'd notice speed differences between the tho, but perhaps others have opinion....)
[18:23] <IrcsomeBot> <Oov> And what will be new in point releas
[18:24] <enigma9o7[m]> Point release will just fix any minor problems missed before 22.04 was released, not supposed to be anything significant.
[18:25] <enigma9o7[m]> you'll just get those updates in due course anyway, you dont have to reinstall or do anything when point releases come out
[18:25] <IrcsomeBot> <Oov> Ok (re @IrcsomeBot: <enigma9o7[m]> you'll just get those updates in due course anyway, you dont have to reinstall or do anything when point releases come out)
[18:26] <enigma9o7[m]> But as to it using more memory, I wasn't aware of that. Perhaps you can find someone who has done such an anylsis.
[18:26] <enigma9o7[m]> It wouldn't be too hard to compare htop from both of them and see whats up, if really important to you.
[18:26] <enigma9o7[m]> Maybe even write an article about it.
[18:27] <IrcsomeBot> <Oov> Ok i'll ask here again later (re @IrcsomeBot: <enigma9o7[m]> But as to it using more memory, I wasn't aware of that. Perhaps you can find someone who has done such an anylsis.)
[18:28] <enigma9o7[m]> Well I meant find a blog post or article or something. But yeah maybe someone here's looked into it too, ya never know.
[18:28] <enigma9o7[m]> It wouldnt be that hard to spin up VM of both and compare in real time.
[18:28] <enigma9o7[m]> I'm surprised if 22.04 uses significantly more memory tho.
[18:28] <IrcsomeBot> <Oov> Not a big differant (re @IrcsomeBot: <enigma9o7[m]> But as to it using more memory, I wasn't aware of that. Perhaps you can find someone who has done such an anylsis.)
[18:29] <enigma9o7[m]> If so, I wonder if its some new stuff ubuntu introduced in the background, or if its things growing, or what... hmmmm.
[18:30] <enigma9o7[m]> You can still make ubuntu fairly light if you try. I did LXDE in a VM for fun, it uses around 220MB iirc.
[18:30] <IrcsomeBot> <Oov> Yup (re @IrcsomeBot: <enigma9o7[m]> Well I meant find a blog post or article or something. But yeah maybe someone here's looked into it too, ya never know.)

[18:31] <enigma9o7[m]> That's my minimal LXDE on jammy.
[18:35] <IrcsomeBot> <Oov> Haa
[18:39] <IrcsomeBot> <Oov> Is there a multimedia player better than vlc?
[18:43] <diogenes_Vx15> Oov, i'm pretty much happy with mpv but if you like something more fncy looking then smplayer with mplayer backend.
[18:43] <diogenes_Vx15> fancy*
[22:03] <IrcsomeBot> <munawar707> Any network data monitoring tool for Kubuntu?
[22:05] <IrcsomeBot> <munawar707> More like Windows 10 which shows Wi-Fi data usage? : https://irc-attachments.kde.org/56af1ce0/file_56923.jpg
[22:20] <tomreyn> i'm not aware of a current GUI tool to do per application traffic accounting on *ubuntu. it should be able with namespaces and ts/tc, i assume, and maybe someone did it, too (you could search github or bitbucket or just the web)
[22:20] <tomreyn> i mean "it should be possible", not "it should be able"
[22:33] <IrcsomeBot> <ykruH> https://linux.die.net/man/8/nethogs
[22:53] <tomreyn> yes, and no. also not a GUI.
[23:07] <cbreak> btop can do it... but it's not a traditional gui
[23:08] <cbreak> you can show traffic in the bar via the network speed widget
[23:11] <tomreyn> i guess this is more about traffic accounting - how much total traffic has passed over this interface, for this pid, rather than a bandwidth meter - how much traffic is currently passing through this interface, for this pid.
[23:14] <tomreyn> i think nethogs gets close to this, but it measures it from raw traffic monitoring, which is... a bit ugly. and i'm not sure it actually retains history (how much was i using that day two weeks ago? and what is my total trhoughput since that day?)
[23:16] <tomreyn> i'd expect such to be best measured at the router / switch where this computers' network interface connects to. but then you couldn't do it by PID.
[23:18] <cbreak> on my servers I use munin
[23:18] <cbreak> but it's not really something for desktops
[23:18] <cbreak> (and it's fairly low-tech)
[23:18] <cbreak> (not really web 2.0 or web 3.0 or what ever version we're on)
