| Flannel | Thats what we expected. I think. Or at least for the former. | 12:09 |
|---|---|---|
| RickH | okay | 12:09 |
| Flannel | So, go ahead and do it without the simulate, see if it works. | 12:09 |
| RickH | Now how do I revert from .31 to .29? | 12:09 |
| Flannel | If it doesn't work, and everything explodes, you'll still have your -15 | 12:09 |
| Flannel | sudo apt-get upgrade | 12:09 |
| RickH | okay | 12:09 |
| Flannel | erm, dist-upgrade maybe | 12:09 |
| Flannel | I suppose it doesn't matter | 12:09 |

| RickH | 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 2 not upgraded. | 12:10 |
| RickH | how can I find out if I'm back to .29? | 12:10 |

| Flannel | Hmm. Did you save your preferences file? | 12:14 |
| RickH | Yes. | 12:14 |
| RickH | I've re-edited it by typing the gksu line again. | 12:14 |
| RickH | It comes back up. | 12:14 |
| RickH | rick@rick-desktop:~$ gksu gedit /etc/apt/preferences | 12:14 |
| Flannel | Well, shucks. I have no idea. | 12:15 |
| Flannel | You'll have to ask someone who knows more about it than I do. | 12:15 |
| nalioth | whoa | 12:16 |
| RickH | okay. | 12:16 |
| Flannel | Luckily, nothing we did will affect your -15 version kernel | 12:16 |
| Flannel | nalioth: Have I been doing it all wrong? | 12:16 |
| nalioth | pastebin works a LOT better for help, guys | 12:16 |
| RickH | Except it doesn'tw ork with xserver | 12:16 |
| nalioth | it allows folks who are late to the party to see the pastebin when they arrive | 12:16 |
| nalioth | repeatedly pasting the same crap to irc channels is totally pointless | 12:16 |
| Flannel | I agree. I suppose I didn't really notice all the paste. | 12:17 |
| Flannel | RickH: usually if it's more than about two lines, you pastebin it. | 12:17 |
| RickH | So what do I do? | 12:18 |
| RickH | Am I resigned to buying a new hard drive and installing Linux there and starting over? | 12:18 |
| Flannel | All because your sound doesn't work? Worst case is you either use -15 with sound,or -16 without sound for a few days until the regression is worked out. You did file a bug report about the regression, ddn't you? | 12:19 |
| RickH | nope | 12:19 |
| RickH | the problem just happened today and I came here first. | 12:19 |
| Flannel | RickH: ah, Well, launchpad might already have a workaround for all we know | 12:19 |
| RickH | For all I know, I did something to break it. | 12:19 |
| Flannel | RickH: But, you'll have to get someone elses help on that, I've gotta run | 12:21 |
| RickH | thanks, Flannel | 12:21 |
| RickH | nalioth: There were only two of us here actively during the pasting. I did not paste a tremendous amount. We used pastebin for some stuff. | 12:22 |

| jrib | hi | 02:26 |
| Soskel | hey jrib | 02:26 |
| Soskel | http://texticle.net/index.php?show=44 | 02:26 |
| Soskel | I get that | 02:26 |
| jrib | pastebin your vmx | 02:26 |
| jrib | what is the location of the .iso you want to use? | 02:26 |
| Soskel | http://texticle.net/index.php?show=45 | 02:26 |
| Soskel | the location of the ISO? | 02:26 |
| Soskel | What do you mean? | 02:27 |
| jrib | you need a .iso or a cd to install your OS, do you have one of those? | 02:27 |
| Soskel | I have a black dvd | 02:27 |
| Soskel | *blank | 02:27 |
| jrib | what OS are you installing? | 02:27 |
| Soskel | windows 3.1 | 02:27 |
| Soskel | I don't actually own windows 3.1 | 02:28 |
| jrib | so you have a cd with windows 3.1 then? | 02:28 |
| jrib | then you can't use windows 3.1... | 02:28 |
| Soskel | are you joking? | 02:28 |
| jrib | ask microsoft | 02:28 |
| Soskel | what channel? | 02:28 |
| jrib | ... | 02:28 |
| Soskel | wait | 02:28 |
| Soskel | would it be possible to buy it? | 02:28 |
| jrib | I guess if someone sells it | 02:29 |
| jrib | why do you want windows 3.1? | 02:29 |
| Soskel | the same reason people want them model T's | 02:29 |
| jrib | heh :) | 02:30 |
| Soskel | thank you so much for trying to help me | 02:31 |
| jrib | Soskel: you can try installing ubuntu or another linux distro like debian from a .iso for practice | 02:31 |
| Soskel | bahahaha | 02:31 |
| Soskel | ok | 02:31 |
| Soskel | I want slackware | 02:31 |
| jrib | get the iso for it and create a .vmx that looks for that iso | 02:31 |
| Soskel | ok | 02:32 |
| Soskel | wait | 02:32 |
| Soskel | will it actually install on my system? | 02:32 |
| jrib | it installs it to a file | 02:32 |
| jrib | then when you run the virtual machine that file acts as the hard drive | 02:33 |
| Soskel | ohh | 02:33 |
| jrib | nothing happens to your system | 02:33 |
| Soskel | cool | 02:33 |
| Soskel | jrib: http://slackware.mirrors.easynews.com/linux/slackware | 02:34 |
| Soskel | witch one do I download? | 02:34 |
| jrib | never played with slackware so your guess is as good as mine | 02:35 |
| Soskel | for helping me, I will send you $10 via paypal | 02:35 |
| jrib | nah, don't worry about it | 02:35 |
| jrib | put it towards ubuntu bounties if you want :) | 02:35 |
| Soskel | :) | 02:36 |
| Soskel | what do you recommend? | 02:36 |
| jrib | I'd go with the latest | 02:36 |
| Soskel | I mean for a distro | 02:37 |
| jrib | ubuntu! | 02:37 |
| Soskel | hehe | 02:37 |
| Soskel | I use that as my primary os | 02:37 |
| Soskel | that is what I am using right now | 02:37 |
| Soskel | it is also my dev server | 02:37 |

| jrib | when you recreate the .vmx file use the "easyvmx" button on the left on the website and make sure you enable using the .iso as a second cdrom | 02:39 |
| Soskel | ok, I got a distro | 02:41 |
| Soskel | dsl | 02:41 |
