AshishLexcuse me , i am participating in google-code in 2013 and doing coding tasks for kde . some of the prequisites require project neon which ultimately requires Kubuntu..... can i install kubuntu using wubi.exe for development purposes ? please help me :)09:07
valoriewubi isn't recommended, no09:09
valorieand I doubt you could go on to use neon with wubi09:09
valorieAshishL: can you create a virtual machine and install kubuntu inside that?09:09
valorie!vm09:10
ubottuThere are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications09:10
AshishLvalorie : thanks :D and i was about to ask the question for VM :D :D09:10
valorieif you want to know more about any of those, you can use the bang to ask for more info09:10
valorie!virtualbox09:10
ubottuVirtualbox is a virtualizer for x86 and amd64 architectures. It's available in the package "virtualbox" in the !repositories, and you can download the Virtualbox Extension Pack for additional, non-Free functionality at http://virtualbox.org . Additional details can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox09:10
valorielike that09:10
valorieI guess since you are still in windows you'll have to install it there09:11
valoriealso, the channel for GCi is #kde-soc09:12
valoriebut kubuntu questions are fine here09:12
valorieneon also has a channel: #project-neon09:12
AshishLvalorie : :D yes i am currently on windows xp . Kubuntu is much better though :) . do  you mean i can run kubuntu  and develop using windows itself ??09:12
AshishLvalorie : thanks for helping out so much !09:12
valoriewell, you can use windows to make the VM09:12
valoriein the VM, you are using Kubuntu, not windows09:13
valorieif you really like kubuntu though, why not "dual boot"?09:13
valorieand not mess with a vm09:13
valorie!dual boot09:13
ubottuDual boot instructions: x86/AMD64: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DualBoot/Windows - Macs: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro https://help.ubuntu.com/community/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot09:13
AshishLvalorie : but wubi enables us to dual boot right ?09:14
lordievaderAshishL: But in a very nasty way.09:14
valorieit doesn't work well with kubuntu09:14
valoriewe don't advise it09:14
lordievaderAshishL: Also it brings huge limitations with it.09:14
lordievaderWubi is a really bad idea... It was a nice concept, but in practice it is horrible.09:14
valorieso really, if you plan on using kub. long term, do a dual boot09:15
valorieif you are thinking shorter term, do a VM09:15
valoriewubi might work for vanilla ubuntu still09:15
valoriebut not really for kubuntu09:15
lordievaderThought I read an email that wubi would no longer be on the iso's for lack of maintenance.09:16
valorieis it still in our ISO?09:16
valorieif so, weird09:16
AshishLlordievader : i want to keep kubuntu long term . so how to dual boot with kubuntu (google results : wubi )09:16
valorie!wubi09:16
ubottuWubi allows you to install or uninstall Ubuntu 12.04 LTS from within Windows ( version 7 or earlier ) in a simple and safe way. Wubi is INCOMPATIBLE with UEFI, Windows 8 Certified computers, and Windows RAID arrays. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide for more information. File wubi bugs at http://launchpad.net/wubi/+filebug09:16
lordievaderNo idea really if wubi is still around, haven't had an (K)ubu iso in a Windows pc for a while.09:17
lordievaderAshishL: During the install (the partitioning step) choose "Side by side".09:18
valorieheh, that page hasn't been upgraded beyond 12.04 even for Ubuntu09:18
lordievaderThis will resize your Windows partition and install Kubuntu on the free space. Grub will automatically see the other OS'es and make an option for it.09:18

Walexvedu: either it appears as a storage device, and then you can 'mount' its contents, or it uses the MTP protocol, and then you need to install the 'kio-mtp' package and then digiKam and other KDE apps can access that.13:45

BluesKajthar was strange , mistakely cleared the chat text18:46
lordievaderNo problem, Wiho. I'm glad you can continue your journey into the world of Linux/Kubuntu :)18:47
WihoIm reading a little on the homepage18:51
Wihoit says18:51
WihoThe DVD includes both the live image/desktop installer and text based alternate installer18:52
Wihoi must have chosen something wrong, couse thats the iso i have18:52
BluesKajhaving a difficult time installing kubuntu on a Lenovo laptop with UEFI and windows 8.1 installed ...tried legacy , secureboot , secure boot diabled with legacy, UEFI enabled with and withour secure boot ..and the conflicting advice in the uubuntu community forums doesn't help either18:56
soee;o18:56
BluesKajthe dvd won't boot to the install or try kubuntu screen18:57
BluesKajguess the advice about lenovo being linux friendly withLinux on UEFI was misleading to say the least18:58
GreylocksBluesKaj: could the iso be corrupt?19:01
Wihohow do one restart the cmd ?19:02
BluesKajGreylocks. it could but I verfied the burn19:02
Wihodownloaded the desktop from the cmd with the help of lordivader, but now I'm stuck again19:03
Greylocksnot likely then :(19:03
lordievaderWiho: Did the apt-get process finish?19:04
Wihooh nice u are still here :D19:05
Wihoyes it did19:05
lordievaderWiho: Then I'd say the best move now is to restart your vm: sudo reboot19:06
WihoOOOO man you are a god to me19:06
Wihoit works19:07
Wihoif you lived in Sweden i would by you beer19:07
