| valorie | right -- and the ubuntu wikis usually have the best way to attack the problem logically | 00:01 |
|---|---|---|
| valorie | from the most common/easiest to test | 00:01 |
| valorie | down to the corner cases | 00:01 |
| Artakha | also you should post more information, for instance what router model is this? i'm no expert at this but this stuff is commonly asked | 00:02 |
| Artakha | so it's a good idea to keep the info ready and post it when you ask your question | 00:02 |
| Artakha | providing as much useful information as possible kind of increases the possibility of getting the right answer | 00:03 |
| yahyaa_ | Im running kubuntu 12.10 not ubuntu | 00:06 |
| valorie | kubuntu is ubuntu+KDE | 00:07 |
| Artakha | kubuntu is just ubuntu with a different desktop though | 00:07 |
| * valorie goes off to eat dinner | 00:07 | |
| Artakha | yahyaa_, and odds are that, since it's wireless that we're talking about, it's not kde-related | 00:08 |
| Artakha | this channel has 243 users while #ubuntu is the second largest on freenode with 1642 users atm | 00:09 |
| Artakha | well, 244 now | 00:10 |
| Artakha | almost 7 times as big. can't hurt to ask | 00:10 |
| yahyaa_ | so how do I switch to this ubuntu channel??? | 00:13 |
| Artakha | yahyaa_, /join #ubuntu | 00:14 |

| yahyaa_ | so what am I supposed to type that in here??? | 00:15 |
| Artakha | yeah | 00:15 |
| === Guest28825 is now known as claydoh | ||
| yahyaa_ | yahyaa_, /join #ubuntu | 00:16 |
| Artakha | uhm remove the highlighting bit first | 00:16 |
| Artakha | /join #ubuntu | 00:16 |

| yahyaa | omg can someone please help me get my scanner working in kde??? | 05:14 |
| valorie | yahyaa: none of those links I gave you helped? | 05:26 |
| yahyaa | no they did not | 05:27 |
| yahyaa | I am new to linux | 05:27 |
| yahyaa | so a lot of it i could not even understand | 05:27 |
| valorie | ask here when you can't understand something | 05:27 |
| valorie | we can help you | 05:27 |
| valorie | I started out as a total beginner | 05:28 |
| valorie | and still somewhat a beginner in some areas | 05:28 |
| valorie | what part didn't you understand? | 05:28 |
| yahyaa | i have been asking here but no one seems to be able to help | 05:29 |
| yahyaa | or i get vague information | 05:29 |
| yahyaa | all I need is for some one to walk me through what I need to do | 05:30 |
| valorie | you are asking vague questions | 05:30 |
| valorie | the link I gave you does that | 05:30 |
| valorie | !questions | 05:30 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 05:30 |
| valorie | hmmm, not the one I wanted | 05:30 |
| yahyaa | the link u gave me does what???? | 05:30 |
| yahyaa | ask a question???? | 05:31 |
| valorie | walks you through what to do | 05:31 |
| yahyaa | no it does not | 05:31 |
| valorie | ignore the !questions one, that was a mistake on my part | 05:31 |
| valorie | *what* do you not understand | 05:31 |
| valorie | or what doesn't work? | 05:31 |
| valorie | please be specific | 05:31 |
| yahyaa | i tried what it told me to do and all it did was help me to hook up my printer wirelessly | 05:32 |
| yahyaa | which i had already done before | 05:32 |
| yahyaa | the printer works just fine | 05:32 |

| valorie | this one? | 05:32 |
| yahyaa | i am trying to get the scanner to work | 05:32 |
| valorie | you can use the bots too, by the way | 05:33 |
| valorie | anyone can | 05:33 |
| yahyaa | what are the bots i dont even know what that is | 05:33 |
| dundee | Anyone knows the reason why my plasmoids rearrange themselves on startup? | 05:34 |
| valorie | did you lock it once you had them as you liked? | 05:35 |
| yahyaa | i went to the site all it does it show what has been tested does not show me how to get mine to work | 05:35 |

| ubottu | valorie: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 05:36 |
| * valorie pats ubottu on the head | 05:36 | |
| yahyaa | what do u mean did i see what u did to get what line???? | 05:36 |
| valorie | did you see this line? !scanning | 05:38 |
| valorie | and then what the result of that was? | 05:38 |
| valorie | we have tools we can use for information | 05:38 |
| dundee | valorie: Yeah I locked the panel. | 05:39 |
| valorie | we're here to help you, but we need you to calm down, and ask questions that help us help you | 05:39 |
| valorie | dundee: and they still move? | 05:39 |
| dundee | valorie: Yeah, but its weird because its always the same plasmoids that moves: Quick Access and Task Manager switches around always. | 05:40 |
| yahyaa | helping some one is not giving them a suggestion where the information may be | 05:40 |
| yahyaa | especially if they don't know much about getting around in linux | 05:41 |
| valorie | yahyaa: I can't come to your house | 05:41 |
| yahyaa | dont need u too | 05:41 |
| valorie | please ask for more explanation of what you don't understand | 05:41 |
| yahyaa | if u know how to do it then just tell me how to do | 05:41 |
| valorie | the documentation is written to help you understand | 05:42 |
| yahyaa | well it does not help | 05:42 |
| valorie | yahyaa: in my experience, most things Just Work | 05:42 |
| valorie | when they don't, I get some information | 05:42 |
| valorie | and ask for help if I need more | 05:42 |
| yahyaa | ok but i did not ask for information | 05:42 |
| valorie | that's how I've made it this far | 05:43 |
| yahyaa | i asked for help to get it to work | 05:43 |
| valorie | I've been using linux for more than 10 years | 05:43 |
| yahyaa | so y cant u tell me how to fix this then | 05:43 |
| * valorie is bowing out now, sorry I couldn't help | 05:43 | |
| yahyaa | wow | 05:45 |

| yahyaa | thanks for nothin | 05:49 |
| himcesjf | yahyaa: Hello | 05:49 |
| himcesjf | Do you mind repeating your question please? | 05:49 |
| yahyaa | i have been trying to get my printer to work since i bought it for the last two days | 05:50 |
| yahyaa | but no one is offering anything that works | 05:50 |
| valorie | can you say what type of printer it is? | 05:51 |
| yahyaa | i have a hpofficejet 6600 | 05:51 |
| valorie | what version of kubuntu you are using? | 05:51 |
| yahyaa | i have said what it is i dont know how many timesz | 05:51 |
| valorie | and it is on the list of supported printers? | 05:51 |
| valorie | not when I was in the channel..... | 05:51 |
| yahyaa | ok so y is it not working | 05:51 |
| yahyaa | it prints just fine | 05:52 |
| valorie | can you see it from your printer setup on your computer? | 05:52 |
| himcesjf | yahyaa: Open terminal (Alt+F2 -> type "konsole") and on prompt type "lsb_release -a" and paste the output here | 05:52 |
| himcesjf | That command can help us know which distribution you are using | 05:52 |
| himcesjf | Have you tried to go through System Settings option to configure printer? | 05:53 |
| yahyaa | No LSB modules are available. | 05:53 |
| yahyaa | Distributor ID: Ubuntu | 05:53 |
| yahyaa | Description: Ubuntu 12.10 | 05:53 |
| yahyaa | Release: 12.10 | 05:53 |
| yahyaa | Codename: quantal | 05:53 |
| himcesjf | Okay, thanks | 05:53 |
| himcesjf | Can you find and open System Setting from KDE menu ? | 05:54 |
| yahyaa | yes its open | 05:54 |
| himcesjf | Printer > Add Printer | 05:55 |
| himcesjf | Have you tried this before? | 05:55 |
| yahyaa | yes | 05:55 |
| himcesjf | What did you try and what was the problem? | 05:56 |
| yahyaa | it shows the printer and says that it is idle | 05:56 |
| yahyaa | but | 05:56 |
| yahyaa | over i the left pane under printers | 05:56 |
| yahyaa | it says the fax is turned off | 05:56 |
| yahyaa | and it says the same for the printer | 05:57 |
| yahyaa | wait it show 3 printer | 05:57 |
| himcesjf | Could you screenshot so that I can understand the problem? | 05:58 |
| himcesjf | !screenshot | 05:58 |
| ubottu | Screenshots can be made with the [PrtScr] button. Want to show us a screenshot of your problem? Upload an image to http://imagebin.org/?page=add and post a link to it. | 05:58 |
| himcesjf | 05:58 | |
| ubottu | Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkPrintingWithUbuntu | 05:58 |
| yahyaa | the first one says officejet-6600 paused - 'unplugged or turned off' | 05:58 |
| himcesjf | Okay ... | 05:58 |
| yahyaa | the second one says | 05:58 |
| yahyaa | officejet-6600-fax-4 pause - 'unplugged or turned off' | 05:59 |
| yahyaa | and the third one says | 05:59 |
| yahyaa | officejet_6600_e-all-in-one idle | 05:59 |
| yahyaa | i can print just fine | 06:00 |
| yahyaa | but when i use simple scan it says it cant find the scanner | 06:00 |
| himcesjf | Ah, one moment | 06:01 |
| himcesjf | You might have checked hardware connections before, could you check it again and try? | 06:02 |
| himcesjf | I've configure printers before and it seemed to have worked fine without much issues. | 06:03 |
| himcesjf | I'm going through above !print links to see if there are any compatibility issues with your hardware | 06:03 |
| himcesjf | hpofficejet 6600. Hold on please | 06:04 |
| yahyaa | it is connected wirelessley | 06:04 |
| himcesjf | Oh ok | 06:04 |
| valorie | yahyaa: did you get a printer driver for it? | 06:08 |
| valorie | HP has one on their site for linux | 06:08 |
| valorie | http://www.driverlook.com/hp-officejet-6600-h711a-e-all-in-one-printer-driver-windows-linux-mac-osx/ | 06:09 |
| valorie | or rather, driverlook.com does | 06:09 |
| valorie | sorry | 06:09 |
| valorie | I'm wondering if the generic driver worked for printing, but not for the scanner | 06:09 |
| valorie | I see reports on the web with your hp officejet having trouble scanning, in windows | 06:12 |
| valorie | http://wirthconsulting.org/2012/03/28/new-hp-officejet-66006700-premium-e-all-in-one-with-hands-on-test-report-and-photo-gallery/ | 06:14 |
| yahyaa | no I did not | 06:23 |
| yahyaa | but my printer does work its just the scanner thats not working | 06:23 |
| himcesjf | yahyaa: I tired to find solution from hplip project (http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/index.html) but It seems to be down. Also, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HpAllInOne. I don't have much experience with wireless printers. Sorry, I cannot help you any further. | 06:24 |
| yahyaa | thanx for your effort | 06:25 |
| himcesjf | Maybe you should try again sometime today | 06:25 |
| yahyaa | ok | 06:26 |
| yahyaa | as a matter of fact i am just going back to windows | 06:29 |
| yahyaa | way less confusing | 06:29 |
| smartboyhw | yahyaa, oh no:( | 06:29 |
| yahyaa | well i can not get my scanner to work | 06:30 |
| valorie | it seems to be somewhat common with that model of all-in-one | 06:30 |
| valorie | unfortunate | 06:31 |
| yahyaa | if it works in windows y wont it work in linux | 06:31 |
| yahyaa | its not the printer its linux | 06:31 |
| valorie | ... | 06:31 |
| valorie | it works in windows? | 06:32 |
| yahyaa | uh yea | 06:32 |
| valorie | cool | 06:32 |
| valorie | I would do my scanning in windows then | 06:32 |

| yahyaa | i am tired of having all of these problems in linux | 06:33 |

| Guest27247 | There's an icon with a key I don't know how to remove beside a partion I want to resize. | 06:34 |

| smartboyhw | Guest27247, what icon? | 06:37 |
| Guest27247 | It's a little key icon besides the partion I want to resize, | 06:38 |
| smartboyhw | Guest27247, give us a picture please. | 06:38 |
| Guest27247 | I'm guessing an administrative lock of some sort. | 06:38 |

| Guest27247 | a picture? | 06:38 |

| Guest27247 | oh | 06:40 |
| valorie | you'll need to upload that to imagebin or similar | 06:40 |
| Guest27247 | damn | 06:40 |
| smartboyhw | Guest27247, how are we supposed to see it with a local file address? Please upload the screenshot to imagebin. | 06:40 |
| smartboyhw | Or imgur. | 06:40 |
| Guest27247 | ok I'll be back then | 06:40 |
| Guest27247 | http://imagebin.org/253954 | 06:41 |
| Guest27247 | aha! | 06:41 |
| smartboyhw | Guest27247, I need to divert you to #ubuntu. This is a GParted problem, and you are clearly using GNOME, not KDE | 06:42 |
| smartboyhw | ...... | 06:42 |
| smartboyhw | Guest27247, and you can't resize. | 06:42 |
| Guest27247 | Why not though? | 06:42 |
| himcesjf | Guest27247: Partition is in use and mounted | 06:42 |
| Guest27247 | I must have like 12gbs then. | 06:42 |
| Guest27247 | I know this one has at least 160gb total. | 06:43 |
| Guest27247 | I don't even want to use windows anymore. | 06:43 |
| valorie | guest, if you used the livecd I linked to, you could do it | 06:43 |
| himcesjf | What are you trying to do? Resize? Are you in LiveCD ? | 06:43 |
| valorie | !gparted | 06:43 |
| ubottu | gparted is a !GTK/!Gnome !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php | 06:43 |
| Guest27247 | No I'm not, | 06:44 |
| valorie | and by liveCD, I mean you could also do a liveUSB | 06:44 |
| Guest27247 | Yeah I have a usb I can use, | 06:44 |
| Guest27247 | Could I install an upgraded ubuntu and then resize the partion? | 06:45 |
| valorie | I mean if you have a CD, fine | 06:45 |
| valorie | but most use USB now | 06:45 |
| smartboyhw | Guest27247, we mean are you botting from hard drive? | 06:45 |
| smartboyhw | valorie, I don't use a CD. It installs Ubuntu 12.04 LTS like a tortoise...:P | 06:45 |
| smartboyhw | IIRC. | 06:45 |
| valorie | me either anymore | 06:46 |
| valorie | just USB | 06:46 |
| Guest27247 | No I installed ubuntu from windows and must've gave the partion 12gb or something. | 06:46 |
| smartboyhw | Guest27247, FROM windows? | 06:46 |
| smartboyhw | Wubi? | 06:46 |
| Guest27247 | Yeah | 06:47 |
| * smartboyhw hates wubi, IIRC | 06:47 | |
| Guest27247 | Well I do too, now. | 06:47 |
| smartboyhw | Different issue then. | 06:47 |
| valorie | gah | 06:47 |
| smartboyhw | gah | 06:47 |
| Guest27247 | I'm using a netbook too. | 06:47 |
| Guest27247 | :D | 06:47 |
| valorie | netbook is ok | 06:47 |
| Guest27247 | Yeah it works fine, | 06:48 |
| valorie | just be sure to use 32bit | 06:48 |
| Guest27247 | Yeah | 06:48 |
| Guest27247 | ok thanks | 06:48 |
| smartboyhw | Guest27247, Windows 7 right? | 06:48 |
| Guest27247 | yep | 06:48 |
| smartboyhw | Guest27247, OK. Just a reminder: Wubi will be cancelled starting from 13.04 (until further notice_ | 06:48 |
| Guest27247 | whoa | 06:49 |
| smartboyhw | Guest27247, too many bugs + undermaintenance + imcompatability with Secure Boot. | 06:49 |
| Guest27247 | well I'm installing a newer one now. | 06:50 |
| smartboyhw | Guest27247, newer what? | 06:50 |
| Guest27247 | Newer ubuntu version, and hopefully i can replace this one and windows. | 06:54 |

| BluesKaj | Howdy all | 11:19 |
| dancapp | Hi BluesKaj | 12:05 |
| BluesKaj | dancapp, ddi you install kubuntu-desktop ? | 12:05 |
| BluesKaj | did | 12:05 |
| BluesKaj | or install ubuntu then install kde? | 12:05 |
| Artakha | dancapp, i am here too :) | 12:06 |
| dancapp | I installed the KXStudio ISO which is Ubuntu with KDE | 12:06 |
| dancapp | Oh hey Artakha | 12:06 |
| Artakha | hi | 12:06 |
| dancapp | So it's possible that the KXStudio creator deliberately left the 'User Management' bit off of SystemSettings, though I don't know why he would have done that | 12:07 |
| dancapp | I'm just running an upgrade so it's possible that'll fix it and I'll have wasted your time ;) Bear with me | 12:07 |
| Artakha | maybe you could go check the software sources list (/etc/apt/sources.list and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*) for strange urls | 12:08 |
| Artakha | if there aren't any, then i don't think kxstudio could have removed it | 12:09 |
| BluesKaj | I'm sure there will be some sources not familiar in kubuntu , this OS is a hybrid , not fgamiliar to me | 12:09 |
| dancapp | Yeah it has KXStudio specific sources as well as general Ubuntu ones | 12:10 |
| dancapp | Update's almost done. Turns out there was one to do - I thought it happened as part of the whole OS installation | 12:11 |
| BluesKaj | dancapp, technically what you have installed is not kubuntu or ubuntu | 12:14 |
| === spawn[dead] is now known as spawn57 | ||
| dancapp | BluesKaj: I guess not. | 12:20 |
| dancapp | My update has finished and I do have a new icon in SYstemSettings but it's not what I need | 12:20 |
| dancapp | It's the KDM Login Manager | 12:20 |
| dancapp | I can change basic settings for users, but not privileges | 12:21 |
| BluesKaj | dancapp, sorry I have no idea , maybe you can ask in #kxstudio , they do have a chat , altho small in population | 12:23 |
| dancapp | BluesKaj - exactly. No-one ever answers there. But can I ask... | 12:23 |
| dancapp | Can the 'User Management' package be installed independently? | 12:23 |
| BluesKaj | dancapp, sorry , I don't know :( | 12:24 |
| dancapp | BluesKaj: Ok, thanks anyway | 12:24 |
| dancapp | Looks like I have some researching to do | 12:24 |
| * BluesKaj nods | 12:25 | |
| dancapp | BluesKaj - any other channels worth asking in? | 12:25 |
| BluesKaj | dancapp, since it's a kde issue , you could ask about the "user management ' issue in #kde as you did before , but I doubt anyone has encountered that due to the hybrid nature of your OS | 12:29 |
| dancapp | BluesKaj: Ok thanks. What a ballache | 12:30 |
| BluesKaj | dancapp, may i ask why you decided on KXStudio ? | 12:31 |
| dancapp | BluesKaj - Great for making music! | 12:33 |
| dancapp | The best one I've tried | 12:33 |
| BluesKaj | ok , midi stuff etc ? | 12:33 |
| dancapp | Yeah, it has some unique applications for easy jack connections, midi etc. | 12:33 |
| dancapp | And because it's based on Ubuntu it's easy for a pleb like me (usually) | 12:34 |
| BluesKaj | what about ubuntu-studio , have you looked into it ? | 12:35 |
| dancapp | Yeah, I much prefer KDE and I like the way KXStudio is managed | 12:36 |
| dancapp | It's becoming the most popular audio distro for a good reason I think | 12:36 |
| BluesKaj | I'm into audio but just as a user , not a creator/sampler or for recording ..this my HTPC | 12:39 |
| dancapp | So you mean listening to audio not making it? | 12:39 |
| BluesKaj | our band records audio in a garage/studio , just not here :) | 12:40 |
| BluesKaj | we're a bunch of older guys who still jam ...we don't fool with samples and stuff like that | 12:41 |
| dancapp | Oh cool | 12:42 |
| dancapp | Well I just demo up some material in my little home studio, using Ardour, some synths, Hydrogen etc | 12:42 |
| BluesKaj | so user management is preventing you from doing or not doing what ? | 12:43 |
| dancapp | Well it's a long story... but I fragged my old install and had to reinstall. When I tried to move my backed up system files over from my extrernal drive to my new install I hit permissions problems. I've now downloaded KUser and it turns out I didn't have root permission even though I;m the primary/only user | 12:45 |
| BluesKaj | dancapp, then that's a legit question for #kde if you ask it using that post | 12:46 |
| dancapp | BluesKaj: Yeah? Thanks I'll try it | 12:47 |
| dancapp | Though I don't understand why that makes my problem any more legitimate. | 12:49 |
| BluesKaj | dancapp, becuse it's related to kde permissions etc | 12:54 |
| dancapp | Ok thanks | 12:58 |

| pic | hi all | 17:14 |
| cornfeedhobo | is the raring kubuntu release stable? it doesnt use wayland, does it? | 17:17 |
| Crell | Hi all. I'm running Kubuntu 12.10. In Default Applications / Web Browser, I have http/https associated to firefox. | 17:18 |
| Crell | Some programs, however, are still opening pages in Chrome. Even though those are set to use the system default browser. | 17:19 |
| Crell | Thunderbird is the chief offender here... | 17:19 |
| Crell | Any idea how to change that? | 17:19 |
| cornfeedhobo | some programs have their own setting for which to open | 17:20 |
| BluesKaj | Crell, system settings>default applications | 17:20 |
| Crell | That's where I am. | 17:21 |
| Crell | @ BluesKaj | 17:21 |
| Crell | cornfeedhobo: How would I check that? I had TBird set to "system default" before, but now (several automated updates later) I can't seem to find where to set even that... | 17:22 |
| pic | Pic$258963 | 17:22 |
| cornfeedhobo | Crell: no clue. i hate thunderbird. i use kmail | 17:23 |
| Crell | I've tried Kmail at various times. It was always too buggy with IMAP for me to stick with it. :( | 17:23 |
| Crell | (Plus it's nice to use the same client at work and at home.) | 17:23 |
| BluesKaj | cornfeedhobo, thunderbird works just fine on kubuntu ' | 17:23 |
| cornfeedhobo | BluesKaj: i am sure it does. just bulky | 17:23 |
| cornfeedhobo | does any one know about the state of raring? | 17:24 |
| BluesKaj | cornfeedhobo, no need for akonadi data base or nepomuk | 17:24 |
| cornfeedhobo | meh | 17:25 |
| BluesKaj | Crell, a hint open system settings as root in the run command (alt+f2)and set the default applications there . kdesudo systemsettings | 17:27 |
| Crell | Well huh. There it has a default browser of rekonq! | 17:27 |
| BluesKaj | cornfeedhobo, 13.04 seems fine atm | 17:28 |
| cornfeedhobo | is there an esay upgrade path? they didnt switch to wayland already, right? | 17:28 |
| Crell | BluesKaj: No change after I set that to firefox. | 17:29 |
| BluesKaj | Crell, it probly needas a relogin | 17:30 |
| BluesKaj | needs | 17:30 |
| Crell | Lovely. I'll try that later. :-) | 17:30 |
| * Crell is in the middle of a bunch of things. | 17:31 | |
| BluesKaj | ok | 17:31 |
| BluesKaj | cornfeedhobo, are you on 12.10 and want to upgrade to 13.04? , if so , run, sudo apt-getupdate;sudo apt-get upgrade , then , sudo do-release-upgrade -d | 17:34 |
| BluesKaj | oops, correction , sudo apt-get update;sudo apt-get upgrade , then , sudo do-release-upgrade -d | 17:35 |
| BluesKaj | cornfeedhobo,^ | 17:35 |
| cornfeedhobo | BluesKaj: cool. i was mostly trying to verify that the package changes arent enough that my system will freak out | 17:35 |
| cornfeedhobo | i am reading the release notice now | 17:36 |
| cornfeedhobo | doesnt seem to have any listed known issues | 17:36 |
| BluesKaj | that's whyn the update/upgrade is run first | 17:36 |
| Crell | Is 13.04 out yet? | 17:36 |
| * Crell is not upgrading for a while anyway. | 17:36 | |
| BluesKaj | Crell, not officially til the 25th or so , it's in beta atm | 17:37 |
| Crell | ok | 17:37 |

| stacky | 13.04 when :( | 20:57 |
| Artakha | stacky, 25th apparently | 21:02 |
| BluesKaj | stacky: Apr 25th | 21:02 |
| stacky | Artakha: thank you | 21:04 |
| stacky | BluesKaj: thank you | 21:04 |
| stacky | Artakha: actually my memory card reader is not working in 12.04.. | 21:04 |
| stacky | and i m directly planning to upgrade to 13.04. | 21:05 |
| Artakha | i don't think that's a great idea, from what i know you should perform upgrades one release at a time | 21:05 |
| Artakha | at least, that's how it is on debian and ubuntu is directly derived from that | 21:05 |
| lordievader | Artakha: A clean install can still be done ;) | 21:17 |

| Guest53655 | Good evening. Is there a good way to install Kubuntu 13.04 in an encrypted LVM, along side Windows 7? | 22:25 |
| Artakha | you can dual boot it but i don't know anything about encrypted lvms | 22:28 |
| Guest53655 | I know quite a bit about encrypted LVMs and can't seem to make it work. It's very frustrating. | 22:30 |
| Guest53655 | I'm good with sysadmin stuff. I tried using an existing encrypted LVM, but I can't get the initramfs to come out. | 22:34 |
| Guest53655 | I can provide many more details, if someone thinks they can help me. | 22:34 |
| DarthFrog | Guest74304: I'm by no means sure but I don't think you can boot from an encrypted filesystem. | 22:50 |
