tricornerI have kubuntu 9.4, its old, is there a wi fi app for that version?00:52
valoriewoah00:52
tricorneror i should upgrade to kubuntu 13.1000:52
valoriethat is no longer supported00:52
valorie!eol00:52
ubottuEnd-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades00:52
geniitricorner: Jaunty is a long time now End Of Life, I would recommend to upgrade to at least 12.0400:53
valorie14.04 if you can00:53
valorienewish, and supported for a long time00:53
geniiYes.00:53
tricornerok, i have a partitioned pc...one side windows 7 starter the orher part ubuntu 9.4..the guy that installed the 9.4 version tricked me..he said my pc was to small for a newr version...00:54
tricorner14.04 has wi fi app?00:54
geniitricorner: Yes.00:55
geniitricorner: Perhaps he meant that either the hard drive partition is not large enough, or else that the computer is possibly underpowered00:55
tricornerthe hard drive partition for ubunto has 116 GB, the pc is no that old..2011 netbook, 2 gb memory, intel atom00:56
tricornergenii, for iinstalling the newr version, on the partinioned ubuntu side...is possible with a flash or usb?00:57
tricornerbut a dont want to put in danger the windows partition...00:57
geniitricorner: Yes, the new ISO images can be just dd right to an USB stick and install by that way now00:58
geniitricorner: I have a similar netbook setup and it runs Kubuntu 14.04 OK, but before I put an SSD quite slowly.00:58
geniitricorner: Also you'll want to be using the netbook plasma instead of the desktop one01:00
tricorner_hi01:02
geniitricorner_: What was the last thing I wrote that you saw?01:03
tricorner_genii, hi..when whe were chatin about hot to upgrade the ubunbtu 9.4 partition to 14 version01:05
tricorner_if there is a risk for the windows side...01:05
geniitricorner_: If you just dd the iso image to a usb stick and boot from that and install, there is no real problem. GRUB will see your Windows and put it on the list of bootable things01:06
* genii notices it's Beer O'Clock01:08
tricorner_ok,01:09
tricorner_ok, where can i dd the 14 image? will it wotk on an atom, 2 gb memory pc?01:11
tricorner_i suppose.. jeje01:11
geniitricorner_: If you come here to the channel when you are doing the install, someone can usually help you to get it set up properly. I myself am leaving soon for today.01:11
tricorner_ok thats a lot!01:12
tricorner_nice weekend01:12
geniitricorner_: Just go to http://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu  and select Kubuntu 14.04 LTS version.  If you are not sure if your chip is 32 or 64 bit, choose 32 bit01:13

KrixvarIs it possible to sync my kdeconfiguration using syncthing?02:20
Krixvar*kde configuration02:20
valorieconfigs for everything?02:21
valorieand what version of kubuntu are you using, Krixvar02:21
Krixvar14.10, 64 bit if it matters02:22
KrixvarBy putting my entire .kde folder into a share I was able to get my laptop to pick up my desktop's splash screen and that was it02:22
valoriewell, there is also ~/.config and ~/.local02:23
valorieand something else, looking at my own system02:23
valoriemore and more, configs are going into those two02:26
valoriebut I would look at all the dot files - for instance if you use firefox, you'll want .mozilla02:26
valorieetc.02:26
KrixvarThanks, I'll try that02:26
valorieyou can look at and edit those files, for the most part02:27
valoriemostly text02:27
Krixvarironically syncing some configuration file or another over broke syncthing02:46
Krixvarthough I do have the color scheme so that's another step in the right direction :)02:46
valoriesure, which is why you may have to edit some config files02:53
valorieor even rename and let them be recreated02:53
valorieI used to rename and move the old .kde file over to the new machine/install02:53
valorieand then move over individual files until something broke02:54
valoriethen it's easy to figure out where the conflict is02:54
tricornercan i run kububti 14.10 from a flash drive..si I dont have to install it or make partition?02:54
valorieyes, tricorner02:55
valorie!persistance02:55
valorieerrr02:55
tricornerin order to try it...02:55
Unit193!persistence02:55
ubottuTo have some persistent storage when using a Live CD, follow the instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDPersistence02:55
tricornerI dont have  CD...02:55
tricornerbut a 16 gb flashdrive...02:56
valoriesheesh, bad spelling02:56
valorieit's the same instructions, tricorner02:57
Krixvarvalorie: You're right, I'm thinking I don't want as much as I ended up transferring02:57
valorieno matter the media02:57
Krixvarvalorie: do you happen to know where the graphical configuration is stored? Things like color scheme, widgets/panels, etc?02:57
valorieI don't, but it will be somewhere in the rc or config files02:58
Krixvarthanks02:58
valorieread some of them and find out02:58
valoriethey are sorta fun to read IMO02:58
KrixvarLots of dead ends, this is a very intriguing problem haha04:10
=== kmc_ is now known as Guest56462
valorieKrixvar: still reading config files?04:27
Krixvarvalorie: yup, though now that I tried copying it with a flash drive it appears that simply copying my .kde folder is enough to transfer the configuration that I want to transfer04:36
valorieexcellent04:37
Krixvarand to prevent conflicts I'm going to make my desktop a master, so it pushes out but doesn't get changed versions sent back04:38
Guest23913Kubuntu is Ubuntu but with KDE?04:40
valorieyes04:40
valoriewe are one of the many 'flavors' of Ubuntu04:40
valorieplasma rather than unity, for instance, and different applications04:41
valoriehowever, you can use any application on any desktop04:41
Guest23913oh ok04:44
Guest23913But you guys have your own community. It 's not developed by Canonical04:45
Guest23913right?04:45
valoriesure04:45
valorieCanonical does a few things like phone, unity, mir, juju04:45
valoriethe community builds most things in Ubuntu04:45
valorieI think Kubuntu was the first flavor since the ubuntu-desktop used to be Gnome04:46
Unit193Canonical does infra, so buildds, servers, etc, etc.04:46
Unit193valorie: Right.04:46
valoriethanks Unit193 - that is very important to us indeed04:47
valoriethe lists, the servers, spinning the ISOs and then serving them04:47
valoriesupporting freenode so we have this chan04:47

BaughnTrying to install 14.10, but the installer just boots to a black screen saying something about saned not starting.20:17
BaughnWhich is a scanner driver. I don't have a scanner. :O20:18
Baughn(I know saned isn't the problem. Nouveau, on the other hand..)20:18
BaughnHowever, even if I add nomodeset and manually install the nvidia driver, then restart sddm, I just get a black screen.20:20
BluesKajBaughn, use lightdm20:26
BluesKajon 14.1020:27
BaughnWell.. how? I'm talking about the installer image.20:27
BaughnDownloading the plasma-4 version now, though.20:27
BluesKajsddm is default on plasma 5 and isn't very 14.10 friendly IME, so install lightdm20:28
lordievaderBaughn: Try the nomodeset kernel parameter.20:32
BaughnTried it. See above.20:33
lordievaderAh, I didn't read properly. Execuse me ;)20:34
