penguin42 | Hey BK | 13:08 |
BluesKaj | Hi penguin42 | 13:09 |
BluesKaj | my dependency problems seem to boil down to libical1 , but it has no installation candidate | 13:11 |
penguin42 | hmm, I seem to have one - from saucy-proposed | 13:11 |
BluesKaj | I've got proposed commented out , since I was advised the last time I lost X ...wonder if I should enable it | 13:13 |
penguin42 | I guess you've probably got a package that came from proposed that depends on it? | 13:14 |
BluesKaj | yeah , could be | 13:15 |
penguin42 | when disabling a repo I think you need to remove all the packages that came from it - not sure if I know a way to do it though | 13:15 |
BluesKaj | desktop is broken , so I suppose I could try it | 13:15 |
BluesKaj | ok ,bbiab | 13:16 |
lordievader | Good afternoon. | 14:06 |
penguin42 | hi | 14:08 |
lordievader | Hey penguin42, how are you? | 14:08 |
penguin42 | good | 14:08 |
lordievader | :) | 14:09 |
* penguin42 is trying openSuse in a u+1 kvm and has slight graphics corruption; heck knows where to start reporting that | 14:19 | |
BluesKaj | ok penguin42 , back on 13.10 , but i'm in a quandary about the proposed repos ...guess now that I'm committed to their packages I have to live with my decision | 14:35 |
penguin42 | yeh or somehow pull every one out | 14:36 |
BluesKaj | goes against the advice from the kubuntu-devel guys tho | 14:36 |
penguin42 | well don't go against them - they can make your machine do very odd things if you misbehave :-) | 14:37 |
BluesKaj | but how ? I don't know of any method to pull packages installed from a particular deb | 14:38 |
BluesKaj | the guys at devel are good people :) | 14:39 |
penguin42 | well, there is a ppa-purge to remove stuff from a ppa | 14:39 |
BluesKaj | proposed isn't classified as appa | 14:41 |
penguin42 | yeh I know, I just mean it's a similar problem | 14:41 |
BluesKaj | well . I'll try to be less aggressive with dist-upgrades , because I ran that deb enabled for quite a while before my pc mucked up | 14:45 |
BluesKaj | unknowing that it could cause me problems | 14:46 |
penguin42 | yeh you've just got to be a bit careful with dist-upgrade to check it's not removing loads of stuff | 14:56 |
BluesKaj | yeah I gambled and lost , but it's fixed now | 14:57 |
BluesKaj | penguin42, I setup a preferences file for proposed as suggested here , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed | 15:21 |
BluesKaj | thanks to tsimpson | 15:21 |
penguin42 | nice | 15:22 |
BluesKaj | yeah , i ran an update/upgrade , no errors | 15:24 |
penguin42 | hmm | 15:26 |
ShapeShifter499 | hi | 21:01 |
ShapeShifter499 | now with all this NSA stuff I'd like to use something ran locally like VNC instead of teamviewer or splashtop on linux. However vnc is slow and I have yet to find a faster alternative that would allow remote control access from a iPhone or Android device. Any ideas? | 21:01 |
IdleOne | !crossposting | 21:02 |
ubottu | Please don't ask the same question in multiple Ubuntu channels at the same time. Many helpers are in more than one channel and it's not fair to them or the other people seeking support. | 21:02 |
ShapeShifter499 | IdleOne, oops sorry about that | 21:05 |
