| ashes | hello | 04:16 |
|---|---|---|
| ashes | i replaced windows with kubuntu on my sister's laptop, and she is basically happy with it | 04:16 |
| ashes | she is asking questions about setup that she would ask even if she was running windows | 04:17 |
| ashes | like making desktop shortcuts to firefox for facebook | 04:17 |
| ashes | she is a perfect candidate for apple. she just wants it to work | 04:18 |
| ashes | kubuntu is working for her | 04:18 |
| ashes | with my help | 04:18 |
| ashes | i run fvwm2 on openbsd, on my laptop, so i have to think of things differently with kubuntu | 04:19 |
| ashes | i can't expect my sister to run what i run, because upgrading packages for my laptop is not common sense stuff | 04:20 |
| ashes | her previous installation of windows7 was unusable, perhaps infected by malware | 04:21 |
| ashes | it got to the point that she said her laptop "didn't work" | 04:21 |
| ashes | and that was what i needed to install linux. she was at the point of being willing to learn a new desktop environment to save her hardware | 04:22 |
| ashes | now her laptop works well | 04:22 |
| ashes | but i am needed to install stuff | 04:23 |
| ashes | she tried installing .exe files yesterday, and i explained that the kubuntu app store was the only place she should install from | 04:24 |

| oye | Hi. Yesterday I got Kubuntu installed in my laptop, thanks to Wubi. Everything went fine, the system is running smooth and sweet and nice. Now, my problem is that I can't boot back into Windows. I mean, everything goes fine, Grub loads, I select to boot Windows, and afterwards, nothing happens. It just gets stuck into a black screen. Any clues? | 07:38 |

| BluesKaj | Hey all | 11:09 |
| nick_omega | before i give up on the 13.04 installer that crashed twice just after starting to copy files over and install kubuntu 12 again, can anyone tell me if there's some sort of failsafe installer i could get into and try, and if it's worth a shot in your opinion | 11:20 |
| nick_omega | in my particular situation | 11:20 |
| BluesKaj | what OS are you on atm . nick_omega ? | 11:21 |
| nick_omega | BluesKaj, what? | 11:21 |
| nick_omega | BluesKaj, its not an installation from another os | 11:21 |
| nick_omega | BluesKaj, its a boot from the disk | 11:21 |
| nick_omega | BluesKaj, you are thinking i am installing it from windows or something i think but that is not the case | 11:22 |
| BluesKaj | nick_omega, there's a net install one can do to upgrade from an existing version , as an alternative , a method I had to use to install 13.04 beta | 11:23 |
| nick_omega | BluesKaj, yes thats my plan b | 11:24 |
| BluesKaj | I had to install 12.10 then do a net upgrade to 13.04 | 11:24 |
| nick_omega | i hope i can net upgrade from 12.04 to 13.04 | 11:24 |
| BluesKaj | nick_omega, no you have to go 12.04>12.10>13.04 | 11:25 |
| BluesKaj | nick_omega, burn a 12,10 iso ,install it , then upgrade to 13.04 from there | 11:32 |
| nick_omega | BluesKaj, how much better is that then the two net installs - kinda limited on time atm | 11:33 |
| nick_omega | upgrades* | 11:33 |
| BluesKaj | 2 net upgrades will take a lot longer in most cases unless you have a really fast internet connection | 11:34 |
| nick_omega | BluesKaj, ok good to know | 11:34 |

| thelonelyghost | yep, done and set both UTC and New York just to be sure. Scrolled down and New York is set the same time as UTC? | 19:39 |
| thelonelyghost | current time zone in the time zone tab you referenced is "America/New_York" | 19:40 |

| thelonelyghost | Er, "America/New York (EDT)" | 19:40 |
| Avihay | uhh, it depends on what you picked during setup, I live in a different country | 19:41 |
| thelonelyghost | I also ran 'dpkg-reconfigure tzdata' and set it to my timezone. no dice. | 19:42 |
| thelonelyghost | huh. | 19:46 |
| thelonelyghost | it just switched over. | 19:46 |

| rosco_y | SonikkuAmerica: ty. Is that a command-line program? | 22:11 |
| rosco_y | ok, I have the dialog open from Muon->Settings->configure sources. I'm just not seeing the "multiverse" option | 22:11 |
| SonikkuAmerica | There should be 4 types: Main, Restricted, Universe, and Multiverse. | 22:12 |
| rosco_y | Your right (of course), I wasn't reading the whole thing--xcuse me | 22:13 |
| rosco_y | my browsers are suddenly complaining that I need to upgrade my flash player | 22:13 |
| rosco_y | apt-get tells me I'm using the latest. | 22:13 |
| SonikkuAmerica | [ sudo apt-get -y install flashplugin-installer ]? | 22:14 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Are you using Rekonq? | 22:14 |
| rosco_y | Firefox and chromium | 22:15 |
| rosco_y | I don't really care for Rekonq.... | 22:15 |
| rosco_y | maybe I'm missing something there | 22:15 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Reinstall it then, and reboot (or log out/in) when you're done. | 22:15 |
| rosco_y | flash player? | 22:15 |
| rosco_y | download the executeable installer, boot to command-line, install? | 22:16 |
| rosco_y | I've done that in the past...oh, I think that route also requires kernal sources and a recompile. | 22:16 |
| rosco_y | maybe I'm thinking of suse | 22:16 |
| rosco_y | oh, use an option in apt-get to force a reinstall? | 22:17 |
| rosco_y | I tried apt-get and it didn't do anything because "I have the latest" | 22:17 |
| SonikkuAmerica | [ sudo apt-get install --reinstall flashplugin-installer ] | 22:17 |
| SonikkuAmerica | rosco_y: ^ | 22:18 |
