elfy | indeed | 19:16 |
lordievader | Thanks :) | 19:16 |
lordievader | Nice victory by the way. | 19:16 |
bynarie | what are some differences between 14.10 and 15.04.. i havent seen any change really | 19:19 |
BluesKaj | bynarie, depends which DE | 19:20 |
bynarie | xfce | 19:20 |
bynarie | well specifically xubuntu | 19:20 |
elfy | not much going on with us atm - mostly will be updated packages | 19:21 |
BluesKaj | then, no idea | 19:21 |
lordievader | Kubuntu has Plasma5 now by default. | 19:21 |
bynarie | yea thats in 14.10 too | 19:21 |
bynarie | plasma5 is awesome | 19:21 |
elfy | if you want to test the newest stuff - use the staging ppa at https://launchpad.net/~xubuntu-dev/+archive/ubuntu/xubuntu-staging | 19:21 |
bynarie | elfy, thanks for the link | 19:22 |
BluesKaj | bynarie, really ? I just reverted to 14.10...plasma 5 definitely not my style and it's still very buggy | 19:23 |
bynarie | i like plasma5.. honestly i havent used it too much, BUT from what i have seen i like it | 19:24 |
lordievader | bynarie: Not by default ;) | 19:24 |
BluesKaj | reverted to 14.10 plasma 4 that is | 19:24 |
bynarie | lordievader, right.. not default.. what i meant was that they have the image spec. for plasma5 | 19:24 |
bynarie | i think u can choose 4 or 5 | 19:25 |
lordievader | True, true. There is the Plasma5 tech preview. | 19:25 |
BluesKaj | looka like I'm staying with 14.10 for a while then, lordievader | 19:25 |
bynarie | BluesKaj, do you use kde? | 19:25 |
BluesKaj | bynarie, yes | 19:25 |
bynarie | ive always used kde since back when linux-mandrake was out.. but i recently find xfce more appealing, lighter | 19:26 |
* BluesKaj nods ...I might take a look at it for my older desktop pc | 19:27 | |
bynarie | im running fairly top of line computer and im still using xfce | 19:27 |
bynarie | core i7 4700mq, 32gb ram, SSD | 19:27 |
BluesKaj | 2008 vintage here | 19:27 |
bynarie | nvidia geforce gtx 700 | 19:27 |
bynarie | i just like the light weight stuff i guess | 19:28 |
BluesKaj | xfce seems like a bit cautious on such high powered machine | 19:28 |
bynarie | maybe so... its just what i have been using lately | 19:29 |
BluesKaj | i3 with 8G RAM on this laptop and kde runs very quickly | 19:29 |
bynarie | yea... i3 and 8gb ram are fairly top notch still | 19:29 |
bynarie | kde should run like a breeze | 19:29 |
bynarie | what type of vid card u got | 19:30 |
BluesKaj | yup, it's great | 19:30 |
bynarie | man ill be honest... i was using windows 8 until prolly last 2 months | 19:32 |
bynarie | then i started tinkering with linux again, and boom i was hooked | 19:32 |
bynarie | havent even booted windows in last 2 months | 19:32 |
elfy | lol | 19:32 |
bynarie | im serious.... xubuntu, or any distro really, puts winblows to shame | 19:33 |
bynarie | im only familiar with debian distros for right now tho so i dont stray to like redhat based or anything | 19:33 |
lordievader | Let me tell you a secret, I'm using Windows 7 right at this very moment ;) | 19:34 |
bynarie | like fedora, suse | 19:34 |
BluesKaj | just the regular intel gpu ,3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller, runs i915 driver | 19:34 |
bynarie | lordievader, NO! GET THE HELL OUT! haha j/k | 19:34 |
lordievader | Gna, gna :P | 19:34 |
bynarie | actually i added more ram to my system and windows is sooo slow.. i think its the timing in the ram being different | 19:35 |
bynarie | i had 16, added 16 more and my cpu slows down lol | 19:35 |
BluesKaj | heh, added 3G to make it 6g on the old desktop and makes a big diff on W7 | 19:36 |
bynarie | yea no doubt | 19:36 |
bynarie | i think around 8gb is pretty much all most ppl need for regualr use | 19:36 |
bynarie | im just the type of person who tries to pump everything into my computer even if its useless | 19:37 |
bynarie | but i failed to realize difference in ram timings causes problems | 19:39 |
BluesKaj | I have a strange situation, set up a gpt partition table, but I'm still restricted to 4 primaries using gparted, is there a newer version of gparted that will read the partition table correctly? | 19:41 |
bubbasaures | BluesKaj, This an additional HD what is the OS set as msdos or gpt? | 19:48 |
BluesKaj | it's the internal HDD and it's set up as gpt for dual booting W7 and Kubuntu, bubbasaures | 19:51 |
josharenson | I'm trying to make a vivid chroot on my nex4, but I get this error. "E: Failed getting release file http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/vivid/Release" | 19:51 |
josharenson | command issued is "mk-sbuild vivid" | 19:51 |
bubbasaures | BluesKaj, Windows is a uefi install and or a gpt/efi and kubuntu as well? | 19:52 |
BluesKaj | bubbasaures, windows is uefi install and kubuntu had to be legacy | 19:53 |
bubbasaures | BluesKaj, Hmm, and you can boot both from grub? | 19:55 |
BluesKaj | bubbasaures, yes | 19:56 |
BluesKaj | originally had W8.1 and installed W7 over it, then kubuntu | 19:57 |
bubbasaures | BluesKaj, Can you pastebin sudo parted -l | 19:59 |
bubbasaures | BluesKaj, Did you set this as legacy before the W7 install | 20:00 |
BluesKaj | created 2 unallocated spaceson the hdd for linux then set them up as ext4s / and home with ubiquity, but now parted -l says it's a mdsos partition table ...guess it got converted somehow in the changeover | 20:01 |
BluesKaj | the origianl partitoning was done in W8.1 | 20:01 |
BluesKaj | bubbasaures, http://paste.ubuntu.com/9357087/ | 20:04 |
BluesKaj | bubbasaures, yes had tio use lgacy mode or kubuntu wouldn't install, unfortunately | 20:05 |
bubbasaures | Partition Table: msdos | 20:05 |
BluesKaj | yup | 20:05 |
BluesKaj | oh well i guess I can get by without a swap partition | 20:06 |
BluesKaj | not happy with the uefi/bios setup on this laptop | 20:07 |
bubbasaures | BluesKaj, You could have a swap file/space, http://pqxx.org/development/swapspace/ | 20:07 |
bubbasaures | I would just set the swappinees at like 10 to get more ram before swapping | 20:08 |
BluesKaj | yeah, I've used a swap file before, but with 8G RAM I probly don't really need it ...no probs so far | 20:08 |
bubbasaures | yeah 8 gigs otta do yah | 20:09 |
BluesKaj | not a heavy user so to speak | 20:09 |
lordievader | BluesKaj: I've had a Win7 install that didn't like gpt, I gave it a gpt disk and Windows simply converted it back to msdos for some reason. | 20:41 |
BluesKaj | lordievader, seems that's what happened here too, thanks for the heads up :) | 20:43 |
lordievader | BluesKaj: Does gparted/parted/etc now list it as a msdos disk? | 20:45 |
BluesKaj | lordievader, yes, parted -l does, http://paste.ubuntu.com/9357087/ | 20:46 |
lordievader | Likely the same bug... | 20:47 |
BluesKaj | or is it the uefi/bios that doesn't like W7 on gpt ? | 20:49 |
lordievader | I don't think the bios has any say in the matter. | 20:52 |
BluesKaj | well, gotta go ...later | 20:54 |
