mazalDo you guys know if Kubuntu shares the same support and release cycle as main Ubuntu , or can point me in the right direction with a link. IE , is Kubuntu also only supported for 9 months now ?07:01
Kiloskubuntu uses all the ubuntu stuff and more from same repos07:02

magespawngood morning all07:10
Kiloshi magespawn 07:10
Kilosall has left, its just us 3 now07:11
magespawnstill sitting at around 40 lurjers though07:11
magespawnlurkers07:11
mazalMorning magespawn 07:12
magespawnhi mazal07:12
mazalKilos, this October I'm gonna do online upgrade for the first time ever. I always do fresh install. But want to give that a go and see07:13
Kiloson a server mazal ?07:13
mazalNo , my desktop pc at home07:13
mazalServer is LTS , I don't muck about with my server07:14
Kilosthe fly always does it that way07:14
magespawnfrom what i can make out most of the drastic changes are in the gui environment anyway07:15
mazalI'm nervous what will happen with all my configs and currently installed apps and current sources list. But gonna try it and see07:15
mazalI will probably have to manually edit and correct the sources list after upgrade07:15
magespawnbackup backup backup07:15
mazalMany of them contain the release name mos07:15
mazalOr maybe the upgrade does that automatically07:16
tonberryE352it usually disables all non standard sources entries before upgrade07:16
mazalmagespawn, fortunately I have very severe and very paranoid backups :-)07:16
mazaltonberryE352, and after upgrade , one need to enable it manually ?07:16
magespawnnothing to worry about then07:16
mazalMy stuff is on like 4 places backed up and in variuos ways as well lol07:17
tonberryE352yes07:17
mazalAnd the gpg keys ?07:17
tonberryE352i think they are kept07:17
tonberryE352it just comments out the entries in sources.list07:18
tonberryE352so you just update the release name and uncomment them07:18
mazalOk that be easy then07:20
mazalSjoe , because new install so much work and takes so much time that I want to try the upgrade route for all non-lts and then fresh install on lts when that comes07:21
Vince-0haai07:26
mazalLo Vince-0 07:28
mazallol , I like the upgrade guide. Click on upgrade and if you get stuck ASKUbuntu lol07:37
Kiloshehe07:37
mazalI'm looking for an upgrade guide that I can read so long and see what is all the little things to keep in mind. I still have plenty of time to study it07:38
Kilosi did it once in update manager, only one tick needed07:38
mazalBut Ubuntu's guide isn't mcuh help hehehe07:38
Kilosit shows the new release at the top07:39
mazalYeah that bit I got , but I want to know detail of little things like the sources list for example. Little things like that one needs to check afterwards07:39
mazalAnd I would like a document so that I minimize bothering ppl with questions07:40
Kilosyou can look in update manager as well for the sources list07:40
Kilossettings i think its called07:41
Kilosthere you can enable/disabled certain sources or add sources07:41
mazalEverything I found so far ends at "follow on screen instructions". Is it really that simple ?07:46
Kilosyeah07:46
Kilosjust takes a long time07:46
mazalWhat is on avarage the size of the download ?07:46
Kilosthe fly uses a command to do it07:47
mazalI know every release will differ , but the average about ?07:47
Kilos800meg i think07:47
mazalk07:47
Kilosfrom 700 to 80007:47
mazalAnd for me on a fresh install take well over 1gig to add everything that needs to be added07:48
mazalSo I will save a bit of data and all the time of installing and configuring everything07:48
mazalThe time saving is what I'm looking for mainly07:49

inetproall the earlybirds of the day08:30
mazalIs al laat man08:30
inetproja maar julle is vroeger as ek08:30
mazalhehehe08:30
psyatwhi inetpro08:31
mazalinetpro, I understand you do upgrades via the upgrade over internet route ? ( new release upgrades )08:41
inetpromazal: hmm... I have done them yes but for my desktops I generally prefer to stick to LTS versions and a relatively fresh install every few years08:42
inetproI say relative because I keep some configs and obviously my own data 08:43
inetprobut as far as I remember superfly does regular upgrading as the releases become available 08:45
superflymy ears are burning08:46
inetpromazal: in general Kubuntu does not have as many significant differences between versions as Ubuntu has at this stage08:46
inetprohi superfly08:47
superflyhi inetpro08:47
Kilosmorning superfly 08:47
superflymorning Kilos08:47
inetprosuperfly: what version you running on your desktop now?08:48
superflystill 13.0408:48
magespawnhey superfly08:48
mazalIs there anything else after upgrade apart from my sources list that I need to correct after an upgrade , inetpro ?08:48
superflyyo magespawn08:48
Kiloshi theblazehen 08:48
superflymazal: if you're doing it right, you don't change anything, you let the upgrade do it all for you08:48
inetpromazal: ^^08:48
mazalSjoe it sounds so easy08:48
mazalIt's struggling to compute :-)08:49
superflyit is, it's one step: do-release-upgrade08:49
superflyor do-release-upgrade -d if you want to catch the beta08:49
inetprothe days of changing your sources by hand are over08:49
mazalk08:49
mazalI'm going that route October for the first time08:50
mazalWanted to start studying manuals so long08:51
inetpromazal: just do it08:52
Kiloshehe08:52
inetprodo it in a VM if you're not sure08:53
mazalI'm not a VM guy08:53
mazalI either do a thing or don't do a thing hehehehe08:53
mazalWould you suggest that apt-get command over the gui way ? Is apt-get's way better way to go ?08:53
Kilosinetpro, you got your twitter working yet?08:54
inetproKilos: eish Kilos, not really08:54
Kilosai!08:54
inetproactually enjoying a bit time away from twitter08:54
superflymazal: what apt-get command?08:55
Kilosyou gotta post about mondays meeting man08:55
mazaldo-release-upgrade , I assume that is with apt-get or am I wrong ?08:55
inetproKilos: ai!08:55
superflyno08:55
superflyit's a command08:55
superfly@~:$ do-release-upgrade08:56
mazalAh ok, is that preferable over the gui way in update manager ?08:56
mazalAnd if yes , just with sudo , or in root mode with sudo su first ?08:56
Kilosthe fly always uses the best way mazal 08:57
superflymazal: it'll launch a little GUI if you're running X08:57
superflyotherwise it just does a CLI version08:57
superflyand no need to use sudo, it'll ask for sudo when it needs it08:57
mazalOk thanx guys08:57
=== confluency_ is now known as confluency
superflyand I use Kubuntu, so I don't know much of how the Ubuntu update manager works08:58
mazalLooks like I don't need any studying for this08:58
superflybut I also tend to upgrade when the beta comes out so  the upgrade manager doesn't know about it yet08:58
mazalJust my lots of paranoid backups08:58
inetprofor a Kubuntu upgrade from 12.10 to 13.04 see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaringUpgrades/Kubuntu08:59
mazalMine will be for ubuntu , but thanx for that one. I am going to start playing with kubunu as well when the time is available09:02
mazalBut won't upgrade the K one for now. Must still play and learn it09:02
superflythe command is the same for both09:02
mazalK09:04
mazalIt all sounds so easy I can't wait for October now to try it lol09:05
Kiloshehe09:07
magespawnhttp://www.webdesignerdepot.com/2013/07/20-resources-for-learning-web-design-development/ some learning resources for those with an interest09:13
magespawnand some more https://www.learnsmartsystems.com some of these are free09:14
Kilosmagespawn, where you find free hosts for websites09:17
Kilosthe free ones are all tiny09:17
magespawnmost of them are yes, or with restrictions about what you can do09:18
magespawnthere has been one advertised on facebook lately, let me see if I can find a link09:19
Kiloscan one use a local server to host it?09:19
magespawnlocal server?09:19
magespawnone is south africa?09:20
Kiloslike your own server pc09:20
magespawnyou can but it is really not recommended09:20
magespawnmost servers on the net have insane connection and bandwidth compared to a home machine09:21
Kilosi was just thinking then one can learn the designing part without any restrictions09:21
Kilosand format it when gavvol09:21
Kilosand not use lotsa data of course09:22
magespawnyou can install LAMP with ubuntu server for your own use, access it on your own network09:22
magespawnthen you can learn the how to set up a website with practice09:23
Kilosok ty09:23
Kilosi gotta get iptables energy going again first09:24
magespawncool, of course i cannot find that advert now09:30
Kiloshehe09:30
Kilosyay i can ping each other. yesterday they didnt wanna09:31
magespawnnice Kilos09:33
Kiloslol i did nothing they njeeded to sleep first looks like09:34
Kilosneeded09:34
magespawnadsl line is taking strain today, lots of updates on various machines, kids playing flash games, and a steam update09:34
Kilosai!09:35
Kilosis there any fibre in hluhluwe yet09:35
Kilosand mainly is there any to hluhluwe09:39
magespawnstrangely enough there actually is, it does not seem to make much difference, it is the main line only not the last mile to business/house09:39
Kilosit will cost laying fibre to where you are09:40
Kilosmaybe one can buy the fibre cable somewhere else and lay it yourself and just get one of them okes to do the connecting part for you09:41
Kilosone of the guys that subcontract to eskom that is09:41
Kilosoffer him lotsa pineapples09:42
magespawnwould need the output of one of the local farms, I am sure09:42
Kiloshuh?09:42
Kilosi dont understand that09:42
Kilosoh you mean in pines haha09:43
Kilosthe tools for doing fibre cable work are expensive09:44
Kiloshi nocware 09:57
nocwarehey kilos..09:59
Kiloshmm... im missing something in my saved iptables file09:59
Kiloscan ping 8.8.8.8 from second pc but cant update09:59
Kilosoh my net splits again10:08
Kilossuperfly, just a pointer please. i can ping 8.8.8.8 from second machine but cant browse from there. had the same thing last year and you fixed it10:16
Kilosmaybe i forgot to save your instauctions10:16
Kilosor lost them'10:16
