bipulHello, I am looking for a guide or link. To install QEMU inside my KUBUNTU 14.0406:04
valorie!qemu06:06
ubottuqemu is an emulator you can use to run another operating system - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo06:06
valoriebipul: ^^^06:06
bipulSee, I am looking for the link where i can learn, How to install QEMU Inside UBuntu OR Kubuntu 14.04.06:07
valoriewow, that link is ancient anyway06:16
valoriebipul, just use muon, or `sudo apt install qemu` in the commandline06:17
valorieqemu is in the repositories; it is installed just as you would any other application06:18
valorie!emulator06:18
valoriehmmm06:18
valoriewe should have a more general link instead of that ancient one06:19
bipulvalorie: Yes I dfid that but nothing pop out when i type in the terminal "qemu"06:19
bipuls/dfid/did06:19
valorie!info qemu06:20
ubottuqemu (source: qemu): fast processor emulator. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.0.0+dfsg-2ubuntu1.2 (trusty), package size 163 kB, installed size 566 kB06:20
valoriepackagename is qemu, so the command I gave you earlier should work06:20
hateballhave to enable universe repos tho06:20
valorieah, yes06:21
valoriethat isn't automatic any more?06:21
valorieI don't recall having to do that06:21
valoriebipul: this may help: http://askubuntu.com/questions/138140/how-do-i-install-qemu06:23
valorieseems it is a bit fiddly to run06:23
valoriecan you tell us what you are trying to do, that you need qemu?06:24
bipulvalorie: Thank you so much, but i am following the valorie offical qemu git link in order to compile.06:24
valoriewhy on earth are you building it from source?06:25
bipulActully I wanted to install Minix3 to understand how Basic functionalllity of Unix Work. As i am unable to install MIni3 on VirtualBox06:25
valorieoh, that sounds like fun06:25
valoriebut still, why build qemu from source?06:25
valorieit is packaged06:25
bipulI am sorry it's not soure.06:26
bipulYes. :p06:26
valoriethat is a lot of work you don't need to do unless you are going to work on qemu06:26
valorieseriously, look at the askubuntu link and just follow that06:27
valorieunless you are going to hack on qemu06:28
valoriein which case, good on ya06:28

alvinI have an akonadi problem. Mails stopped arriving last week (IMAP) while I can see them just fine in other clients. I re-added the akonadi IMAP resource for the same server, but now the INBOX and everything under it remain completely empty. Yet there are no errors.08:28

Avihaydid anyone not upgrade skype and noticed skype can't connect?13:21
RiddellAvihay: not tried but skype did send me a message saying they were going to stop allowing access from older versions of the linux client13:27
RiddellI expect it's a microsoft conspiracy13:27
AvihayI smell a Microsoft conspiracy as well :-<13:28
ikoniahasnt' this changed with skype migrating to the web service ?13:28
Avihayya, upgraded, logs in :-<13:28
ikoniayou need a certain minimum version after it started using the web service13:28
AvihayI need to restore my profile again :-<13:29
AvihayI deleted it because usually, when skype says "Can't connect", it means "you'r HDD got full, I tried to access the mySQL db, failed, wrecked it, and I don't know how to let it restore itself" :-<13:31

noobar123My inital boot after installing 14.04 went fine.  I customized firefox a little, remapped the run command shortcut, and resized my panels a bit.  Also installed whatever updates came in after the fresh install.  I then rebooted and now I only get a cursor and wallpaper after logging in.17:22
noobar123logging in as guest works fine17:22
noobar123I''m not sure what process is failing to start or what setting I may have messed up, or where to look17:22
noobar123and the terms i'm googling keeps pointing me toward the many people with video driver issues and i don't think that's me.17:24
lordievadernoobar123: If the guest account works the issue probably lies in your kde profile.17:31
MoonUnit`previously when my kde account failed it was due to using some setting in bleachbit which deleted something it shouldn't.17:39
geniinoobar123: From login screen, you can do crtl-alt-F1   and login with your username and pass to the console. From there:  mv .kde old.kde       and then: exit   and alt-F7 to return to login screen. This will move all the KDE settings into old.kde directory and make a fresh one for .kde17:41
noobar123hmm i've moved and deleted .kde and it hasn't changed, cursor on logging into user but guest works.  I've carried my home partition from linuxmint to solydk to now kubuntu while always formatting /, is it time to reinstall and format that as well?17:52
lordievadernoobar123: Make a new user and see if the problem is there too.17:53

mustang_Hey ya'll.. Does anyone on here know why the entire trusty directory is missing from the server?  http://ppa.launchpad.net/cybolic/ppa/ubuntu/dists/trusty/main/binary-amd64/Packages I am trying to do an update and its bouncing  with a 404 not found.  I manually browsed the web directory path and its gone...19:32
Unit193https://launchpad.net/~cybolic/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+packages because they don't publish for trusty.19:34
mustang_They must have at one point because I had it in my sources prior to updates and I was able to get a clean apt-get without any error at one point19:35
geniiHm, 201019:36
l_rhi guys19:39
l_rwhat 's the kernel version in kubuntu 14 0419:39
l_ri cannot install debian , so, i have no other alternatives19:39
l_rbecause the kernel is too old and does not support my  new intel wifi card19:39

l_rdebian7.6 is 3.219:40
l_rtoooooooooooooooooooooo old19:40
Unit193Don't use stable?  Testing has .1419:40
l_rtesting is not....stable19:40
l_ri expect kubuntu to be more stable than testing19:41
l_ris it reasonable?19:41
lordievaderI believe Ubuntu syncs with testing, but I may be wrong.19:41
l_ri expect kubuntu to sit in between debian stable and debian testing with regard to stabiity19:42
Unit193lordievader: Unstable, actually.19:42
lordievaderAh, I stand corrected ;)19:42
l_rit derives from unstable?19:42
