| Guest45215 | Hey guys what's up! I need help.... My question is... Does the installer of ubuntu 14.04 recognise that in the hdd there are two operative systems? In fact I have win7 alongside ubu12.04 | 14:42 |
| penguin42 | I think it should, I've not tried that combination though | 14:44 |
| Guest45215 | Mmm ok! | 14:44 |
| penguin42 | Guest45215: Still, it's certainly making sure you've got a backup before you start | 14:44 |
| penguin42 | Guest45215: And you should be able to go quite a long way through the installer without changing anything | 14:44 |
| Guest45215 | And in your opinion is there the option to choose to get rid of the old ubuntu and to install the new version? | 14:46 |
| penguin42 | I think so; I think as you go through the installer and it gets to the bit about disk partitioning it will ask you what you want to do | 14:46 |
| mapps | damnit | 14:47 |
| mapps | had nightmares | 14:47 |
| Guest45215 | Tnx! | 14:47 |
| Guest45215 | Aaaand listen! If I go to windows>manage disks and decide to delete the partition where ubuntu is installed what would happen? | 14:50 |
| penguin42 | Guest45215: I'm not too sure where the boot loader ends up in a win7/ubuntu dual boot - don't delete the partition holding your current boot loader | 14:50 |
| Guest45215 | Ok! It was only a stupid question I know! | 14:51 |
| Guest45215 | Well, and know a question that doesn't involves ubuntu..... In your opinion where do I come from? | 14:52 |
| penguin42 | Well, the most likely place is Earth | 14:53 |
| Guest45215 | Hahah!!! :) | 14:54 |
| Guest45215 | But I mean... So... Mmm... Are you from an english speaking country? Sorry, but this is very important to me | 14:55 |
| Guest45215 | I'm not a stalker or something else... | 14:56 |
| Guest45215 | Just want to know... | 14:56 |
| penguin42 | Yes, native English speaker | 15:01 |
| penguin42 | GeoIP reckons you're probably from Italy | 15:03 |
| Guest45215 | Well, i know we're talking on "ubuntu-uk" so you probably come from england.... But, However... I'm not from England... i'm from a stupid country called "italy" and I would like to say that I ALWAYS ask question in on-line places not connected with my country, because all italians are sooooo stupid and horrible people.. An hour ago I asked on ubuntu-it chat the same thing I asked in this chat and NO ONE replied to me correctly. | 15:04 |
| penguin42 | Well, not all Italians, I work with one that's smart | 15:05 |
| mapps | yeo | 15:05 |
| mapps | england is the best | 15:06 |
| mapps | we agree | 15:06 |
| Guest45215 | Yeahh... All italians abroad are very smart | 15:06 |
| penguin42 | Guest45215: He's still in Italy | 15:06 |
| Guest45215 | Mmm... Oook :) but... However moving on... i have all replies to my question not certanly in italy... | 15:07 |
| Guest45215 | But my question is... Did you understand i'm not english? | 15:08 |
| penguin42 | Guest45215: Not really, your English is pretty good | 15:08 |
| Guest45215 | Ohohohohohohhooh!!!! | 15:09 |
| Guest45215 | No way!! Really? | 15:09 |
| Guest45215 | Fabulus! | 15:09 |
| Guest45215 | *fabulous | 15:10 |
| Guest45215 | Ahah!! You used GeoIP! :) | 15:14 |
| penguin42 | yep | 15:14 |
| penguin42 | Guest45215: But you can tell you're probably western European because you get the grammar about right | 15:15 |
| Guest45215 | Sorry? | 15:17 |
| Guest45215 | You're saying I have a good grammar? | 15:19 |
| Guest45215 | :) | 15:19 |
| penguin42 | Guest45215: Yes | 15:21 |
| Guest45215 | Huhuhuhu!!!!! Hugs! | 15:21 |
| Guest45215 | :) I hope one day I c | 15:22 |
| Guest45215 | *will study in UK! | 15:22 |
| Guest45215 | I hope in the Erasmus project! :) | 15:22 |
| penguin42 | ah I have heard of it | 15:23 |
| Guest45215 | Yah! It's such a wonderful project where students can move through Europe to go to study in a different country... :) I would also improve both my english grammar and pronunciation... | 15:25 |
| Guest45215 | Well... dreams are beautiful... But they are also very short, so now i stop dreaming and continue my life in this country where all sucks... | 15:29 |
| Guest45215 | *suck | 15:29 |
| Guest45215 | Politics first... | 15:30 |
| Guest45215 | Well! Thanks for all! Bye bye! | 15:35 |
| penguin42 | you're welcome | 15:35 |
| * SuperEngineer has fingers tightly crossed - currently updating Hp mini from 12.04 to 14.04 ... X | 16:34 | |
| SuperEngineer | ...and, of course, is watching the Hungarian Grand Prix | 16:35 |
| SuperEngineer | wee - upgrade worked! that's all 3 pooters now running 14.04.[01 I assume] | 17:19 |
| SuperEngineer | except it's gone back to non-uk keyboard - a known xubuntu prob - usually cured by removing dbus stuff - but really, again?! | 17:27 |
| penguin42 | under the GUI? | 17:30 |
| SuperEngineer | yup | 17:33 |
| SuperEngineer | [still checking all used apps working 100% - so far so good - then on to resolving that little prob] | 17:34 |
| SuperEngineer | wey-hay... even Steam working on it ok | 17:34 |
| penguin42 | SuperEngineer: I'm sure Steam got a significant amount of enthusiastic testing | 17:38 |
| SuperEngineer | ;) | 17:44 |
| SuperEngineer | So creaking old netbook on Lubuntu, HP mini on Xubuntu, home build desktop on Ubuntu - all 14.04.01 :D | 17:45 |
| penguin42 | I put Kubuntu on my netbook; it's ok once it gets going, but it does take a while to get itself together | 17:46 |
| SuperEngineer | please tick here if 1st day off in 3 weeks successful [ᶘ] | 17:53 |
| penguin42 | haha, I'm back to work tomorrow after a week off | 17:57 |
| SuperEngineer | penguin42: :p | 18:03 |
| SuperEngineer | ...and brain fade - it's not a dbus prob - it's an ibus prob - currently resolving | 18:04 |
| popey | ditto | 18:05 |
| SuperEngineer | ..keyboard solved... | 18:07 |
| SuperEngineer | ...now - to update to whisker menu or not to upgrade to whisker menu - that is the whatsits... | 18:07 |
| daubers | Evening | 19:33 |
| mapps | evening | 19:37 |
| daftykins | o/ | 19:38 |
| * SuperEngineer refuses to say "evening" while the sun still lights a glorious sky! | 19:38 | |
| daftykins | ugh that HP craptop's audio device disappeared again :P | 19:38 |
| mapps | heh | 19:38 |
| daubers | Heh :) | 19:38 |
| mapps | thought it was fixed | 19:38 |
| daubers | SuperEngineer: Only just lighting the sky around here. Might actually have to put the lights on shortly | 19:39 |
| daftykins | yeah, it was for one boot... | 19:39 |
| mapps | how did u fix itbefore | 19:40 |
| SuperEngineer | #/me hands daubers a virtual candle | 19:40 |
| daftykins | i didn't, powering off then powering back on it mystically appeared :) | 19:40 |
| daftykins | although that was with Windows installed | 19:40 |
| daftykins | the Linux installs seem to chase the device away | 19:40 |
| mapps | o | 19:46 |
| daftykins | found a huge thread on the HP forums about lots of models having disappearing audio | 19:46 |
| mapps | how old is the machine | 19:47 |
| daftykins | Vista era, so 06-07 | 19:48 |
| daftykins | ah sounds like it's heat damage that's killed it | 19:49 |
| daftykins | causing it to be intermittent | 19:49 |
| daftykins | that makes sense now, because it was after a good run of prime95 that it worked again... so the heat probably helped make the connection briefly again | 19:49 |
| daftykins | i could try popping the motherboard in the oven \o/ | 19:50 |
| mapps | prime95? | 19:53 |
| daftykins | heh we are mr. questions | 19:54 |
| daftykins | yep, it's a common stability testing program | 19:54 |
| daftykins | it has torture test options that let you hammer the processor, RAM and disk | 19:54 |
| mapps | heh | 19:54 |
| daftykins | overclockers use it to stability test overclocks | 19:55 |
| mapps | dont ask dont learn;p | 19:55 |

| heracles | Hello. Does anyone have any experience with getting bridging to work in xen? I want to bridge wlan0 to xenbr0 but I can't find any instructions on how (that actually work) | 21:36 |
| daftykins | that'll probably be since xen isn't the officially supported virt tech for ubuntu | 21:38 |
| heracles | Ah | 21:39 |
| daftykins | is that a particular reason you chose it? | 21:39 |
| daftykins | s/that/there/ | 21:39 |
| heracles | What is the officially supported virt tech? is it kvm? I chose it because it was the first thing I read about that offers VGA passthrough which I've managed to accomplish | 21:40 |
| heracles | as well as USB passthrough which is also working as of now | 21:40 |
| daftykins | think so yip | 21:42 |
| heracles | It took 3 days to get everything working (including going through several different distros). I'm kind of reluctant to start the process over again | 21:43 |
| heracles | with a different tech | 21:43 |
| daftykins | well, funny part about 'xenbr0' is that's named as a bridge interface already | 21:44 |
| daftykins | so what IP does that interface have? | 21:44 |
| heracles | the problem isn't creating the bridge interface, it's linking it with wlan0 | 21:45 |
| heracles | I'm pretty sure you can't directly link the two | 21:45 |
| heracles | let me find the exact error I get | 21:46 |
| heracles | sudo brctl addif xenbr0 wlan0 | 21:47 |
| heracles | yields | 21:47 |
| heracles | can't add wlan0 to bridge xenbr0: Operation not supported | 21:47 |
| heracles | I also tried running: $ iw dev wlan0 set 4addr on | 21:48 |
| daftykins | if you're using network manager on the host OS and the interface is up, you probably can't do it | 21:48 |
| daftykins | so why exactly do you want a VM to have a physical graphics card? | 21:49 |
| daftykins | just curious | 21:49 |
| heracles | I tried uninstalling the network manager and configuring wlan0 through /etc/network/interfaces but none of the suggested configs I tried worked | 21:50 |
| heracles | gaming and AutoCAD | 21:50 |
| daftykins | :S | 21:51 |
| heracles | and I don't trust windows enough to install it on bare metal, I want the filth contained | 21:51 |
| daftykins | that's pathetic. | 21:51 |
| daftykins | yeah WPA supplicant fun with the interfaces file would be a challenge | 21:51 |
| Myrtti | smile, you're again on a screenshot | 21:51 |
| * Myrtti scrambles for screenshot tool | 21:51 | |
| heracles | screenshot why exactly? Using a VM for windows specific tasks doesn't seem like something unusual | 21:52 |
| heracles | perhaps my comment about "containing the filth" was a tad edgy | 21:52 |
| heracles | *shrugs* | 21:52 |
| heracles | so what do you suggest I do daftykins? | 21:53 |
| Myrtti | screenshot for my irssi theme | 21:53 |
| daftykins | yes it was childish | 21:56 |
| daftykins | i don't know, i used xen 6 years ago | 21:56 |
| daftykins | i'd imagine there'd be plenty of information to get it working, online - assuming that bridging syntax was correct | 21:57 |
| daftykins | i'm surprised there was even a xen kernel in the repos | 21:57 |
| heracles | do you think it's worth trying to configure kvm instead? | 21:57 |
| daftykins | no idea | 22:00 |
| heracles | the ubuntu specific documentation seems to stop around 11.10 | 22:05 |
| heracles | for kvm that is | 22:05 |
| heracles | also from what I understand xen is much more mature | 22:05 |
| daftykins | maybe, on supported platforms | 22:05 |
| heracles | installing kvm as we speak | 22:19 |
| heracles | thanks for your help | 22:19 |
| daftykins | there we go, bit of a heating for a while... audio comes back \o/ | 22:22 |
| daftykins | i think i'm gonna pop it in the oven | 22:22 |
