[03:22] TBotNik: this doesn't seem to be a kubuntu error -- maybe ask in a mysql or php chan?

[09:29] which file format should i format my usb stick to make startup disk [09:31] krise: fat32 or extN where N is preferably 2. [09:32] thanks [09:39] why ext2 [09:39] why not 4 [09:39] or ReiserFS [09:40] i personally often try to stay away from ext4 [09:40] journalling filesystem might be overkill for a startup disk [09:40] it seems like an improvement the way SSDs are improvements [09:40] i just stick to ext3 mostly [09:41] hi mparillo [09:41] if i reinstall debating switching to xfs [09:42] never looked at that, it's the default for some things? [09:43] fedora server 22 is making it the default [09:43] i saw something of the kind in some tool, I thought it was cryptsetup, maybe it was ... [09:44] seems to be pretty speedy http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=linux-40-hdd&num=1 [09:44] oh, it was the container-creating tool of libpam-mount [09:44] Filesystem to use for the encrypted filesystem. Defaults to xfs. [09:45] linux has a habit of using many many small files [09:45] i feel it is often like offloading some application-level technique onto the filesystem, out of laziness :p [09:46] seriously, people are offloading something that should be done by the application (inside some container format) onto the filesystem [09:48] in the sense that the filesystem often has all these tools available already [09:49] you could even create e.g. linked trees using just files and branches in the filesystem (directories, etc..) [09:49] :) :p [09:56] hi xennex81. Good early morning (EDT) to all. [09:57] still morning here too :P [09:57] CET [09:57] denza252: Because it was about a usb stick. [09:59] ext2 still has a bit of overhead does it not [09:59] why not just fat [10:02] Hence the fat32 or ext2. [10:09] but fat32 has this 4gb limit and that is pretty much a no-go for me. [10:09] just saying. But sdcards are often formatted with lowlevel mechanics supporting it, in fat32 [10:59] Howdy all === Sword_Smith is now known as sword_smith === davevanloo-bed is now known as davevanloo [12:06] vivid release date getting close and still can't log out, reboot or shutdown properly. === rGalrito is now known as Galrito [12:08] MoonUnit`, yes i had that problem until the last kernel upgrade [12:10] which was this morning EDT or -5 GMT [12:13] from the systemd bug report sounded like we are waiting for a dbus update to fix it.

[13:44] Bugh, jack. [13:44] just some link that i wouldn't regret using..?:) [13:45] yep, some nice audio soft there, but remember troubles after installing jack long time ago :) [13:45] That is precisely why I stay far away from jack. [13:46] i have fresh install, and just added my details here and there, looks nice and last thing i want to do is to reinstall :) [13:46] tell that to rosengarden... :) lordievader :) [13:49] hegemon8, I'm no expert on jack, my experience with it tells me it's to be avoided unless absolutely necessary because my needs are rather simple [13:50] yes, You have similar stand to mine regarding jack BluesKaj :) [13:51] then we have pulse to complicte matters even more [13:51] just was wondering if there is any safer way to try apps that require jack on kubu [13:51] haha [13:51] true :) [13:52] there is some pulse with jack integration, but from my previous experience (while back) - not trying that again :D [13:54] the worst part, if i find anything usefull i could use on the forums, its mostly quite outdated regarding kubuntu itself, and ubuntu ones not always match ...

[15:11] in the sense that files newer than that date should be copied (from right to left) but files older than that date (that are deleted/missing on left) should be deleted on right [15:12] of course it is easy enough to do a date-base (--from) copy from right to left wich only newer files being copied (or missing files) [15:12] xennex81, probly a good question for ##linux [15:12] s/wich/with/ [15:13] I'm asking here [15:13] for now [15:13] well, good luck then :-) [15:14] you can answer if you want :P [15:14] xennex81: rsync [15:16] rsync is great for copying files , but that's all i use it for [15:16] i think it would require an hour of troubleshooting to find the options I need.... === thomas_ is now known as Guest28760 [15:26] i think find's -mtime or -newer are good options === kubuntu is now known as Guest72465 [17:09] lol I wrote a little script that will update with a one-way sync from a certain date onward [17:09] using just find and cp and diff [17:09] two hours later though [17:10] albeit with food in my stomach [17:10] :) [17:13] Rsync's main purpose is, as the name suggests, to sync things.

I have Googled for a solution, and while I did find some people complaining about the same issue, I have yet to find a clear solution. Could you please help me?
