[04:18] <shay_shay> hello
[04:19] <shay_shay> i need to build a 3.17-rc7 kernel with one option disabled
[04:20] <shay_shay> all the instructions i have found were for the ubuntu git repos, none of them are 3.17
[04:20] <shay_shay> how do i merge all the changes which make an ubuntu kernel a ubuntu kernel to the linux torvolds git repo (which is presumably what i need to do) ?
[06:28] <lordievader> Good morning.
[06:44] <elfy> morning all
[06:45] <lordievader> Hey elfy, how are you this fine morning?
[06:45] <elfy> hi lordievader - all good thanks - you?
[06:46] <lordievader> Doing good, having breakfast, nice music playing. What do you want more?
[06:47] <elfy> that sounds just right :)
[06:49] <lordievader> My thoughts exactly ;)

[16:48] <DJones> How stable is 14.10 Ubuntu at the moment? Having issues with a 14.04 install & may need to reinstall, tempted to try 14.10, normally around now that would normally upgrade anyway
[16:56] <genii> I'm finding it fairly stable here, but I use Kubuntu.
[16:57] <BluesKaj> DJones kubuntu 14.10 here as well , very stable atm
[16:58] <elfy> xubuntu is stable too
[17:00] <genii> Yup, i have xubu and lubu 14.10 on my netbook peacefully co existing and running without issues.
[17:27] <shay_shay> Windows likes to eat Linux partitions
[17:28] <shay_shay> You don't have to worry about the opposite
[17:28] <shay_shay> This is why I use virtual machine
[17:29] <BluesKaj> usually windows doesn't recognize ext partitions
[17:30] <shay_shay> There's a setting in windows which will make those partitions invisable to explorer..
[17:30] <shay_shay> That's very important
[17:31] <shay_shay> Because explorer is always encouraging the user to format those unrecognised file systems
[17:32] <shay_shay> Jeez M$, It doesn't have to support the file system but it should recognize them enough to not tell the user its formatted
[17:32] <shay_shay> That is some shady tactic I bey
[17:32] <shay_shay> Bet*
[17:33] <shay_shay> One more reason to boycott them
[17:34] <rww> don't assume malice when stupidity explains it just fine
[17:34] <rww> and while I'm at it,
[17:34] <rww> !m$
[17:34] <ubottu> Please don't use silly misspellings to denigrate other operating systems. It makes users of that system feel attacked and hurts Ubuntu advocacy by making the community look unreasonable.
[17:34] <BluesKaj> MS assumes this because 90% of systems are MS
[17:35]  * genii makes more coffee and cookies
[17:35] <lordievader> Actually Windows does warn you that there might be data on there even tough he cannot read it.
[17:35] <rww> I know its disk management tool does (the one that does online NTFS resizing).
[17:39] <BluesKaj> I use ext2fsd to access linux data and folders on windows so there are methods to access linux from windows
[17:49] <shay_shay> Rww that's a standard abbreviation ... I only use it because its a defacto standard. The purpose of using it is not an attack it was only so people would know I was talking about microsoft
[17:49] <rww> lol no it isn't
[17:50] <shay_shay> I've seen it spelled that way than any other way
[17:50] <DJones> Nah, thats just troll speak
[17:50] <shay_shay> You're just twisting my words,  didn't include any kind of attack in that two character acronym
[17:51] <rww> maybe you should hang out in places that don't encourage assuming "shady tactics" and jumping to boycotts
[17:51] <shay_shay> OK I agree
[17:53] <BluesKaj> yeah, i don't "hate" windows , just prefer kubuntu, that's all
[17:53] <lordievader> I actually use Windows, gasp
[17:54]  * lordievader runs and hides
[17:54] <vitimiti> hi
[17:54] <shay_shay> I use it for Solidworks, but I have a KVM with VGA pass through
[17:54] <BluesKaj> lordievader, so do I :)
[17:56] <BluesKaj> wife uses W7 so i keep  w7 partition to "keep up"
[17:58] <shay_shay> My wife uses osx :O but she only uses VLC, transmission, and safari so she could really use anything .. I want to put kububtu on the Mac mini
[17:59] <shay_shay> Kubuntu
[18:00] <vitimiti> My gf would want an OSX for photoshop >:I
[18:02] <shay_shay> My best friend is a professional at photography and graphic design, he approves of gimp instead of PS, but says he's not happy with the RAW processing suites on linux
[18:02] <shay_shay> I can't comment because I can't use that stuff to save my life
[18:07] <vitimiti> I have recommended her Gimp, but she would "have to learn everything again and it's a pain in the ass"
[18:08] <BluesKaj> gwenview and imagemagick are enough formy needs
[18:14] <shay_shay> vitimiti: that's nonsense. Once an artist learns the tools its like riding a bicycle. Getting on a different bicycle only takes 'going easy' for a few hours until you learn its quirks
[18:16] <vitimiti> shay_shay, tell that to her, lol
[18:18] <shay_shay> vitimiti: I understand. My wife will freak out ifni change her torrent client
[18:18] <vitimiti> haha

[18:19] <ubottu> #ubuntu+1 handles support for the development version of Ubuntu.  Please join #ubuntu for all other Ubuntu support.  Chat in #ubuntu-offtopic.
[18:22]  * BluesKaj waits for a ubuntu+1 related question... doesn't seem to be many atm
[18:22] <rww> There aren't, because utopic is pretty boring. #ubuntu-offtopic is still the best place for off-topic chat ;)
[18:24] <BluesKaj> why are you there ? :)
[18:31] <shay_shay>  I have a delema related to Utopic. I need to use a 3.17 kernel because earlier kernels don't have support for some of my hardware in them, unfortunately the kernels on the mainline PPA have this option CONFIG_USB_EHCI_HCD built in (not modular ) and I need to remove it. I want to use a kernel which is not completely generic so for all intents and purposes it will behave like a Ubuntu kernel from mainline
[18:31] <shay_shay> ppa. Not really sure where to start on this. And for the record I have made changes to kernels before but haven't done a lot of back porting or rebasing efforts
[18:32] <shay_shay> But I'm a git noob
[18:33] <shay_shay> Most of my experience comes from gentoo which is a much more spoon fed experience
[18:34] <lordievader> shay_shay: If you know Gentoo this should pose no problem ;)
[18:36] <shay_shay> Well no, gentoo has a ebuild for latest git sources and they get merged with gentoo sources with a script which someone else wrote
[18:37] <shay_shay> So on gentoo all I would need to do is find a starting config and edit that one option
[18:37] <shay_shay> Sorry rww I don't know how we got off topic
[18:38] <shay_shay> That wasn't my intent lol /me looks at lordievader
[18:38] <lordievader> shay_shay: Genkernel user?
[18:39] <shay_shay> No
[18:39] <shay_shay> Never used it
[18:40] <lordievader> shay_shay: So you compiled/configured it yourself. No problem then :P
[18:40] <shay_shay> Anyways, lordievader I flashed coreboot on my chromebook it fixed the problem I was having with syslinux
[18:40] <shay_shay> Now it boots anything :D
[18:41] <lordievader> shay_shay: Good to hear :)
