| hyper_ch | hi BluesKaj | 14:12 |
| BluesKaj | hi hyper_ch | 14:12 |
| hyper_ch | BluesKaj: so, been busy today with nixos :) | 14:13 |
| BluesKaj | no, i've been fixing my debian install, mostly small annoying stuff that I let slide for a while | 14:14 |
| BluesKaj | dunno if I have to learn a new package management system for starters | 14:15 |
| hyper_ch | no, I have been :) just doing virtualbox install now | 14:15 |
| BluesKaj | have time | 14:15 |
| BluesKaj | and so far so good ? | 14:16 |
| hyper_ch | am building now... seems good.... will update my configuration nix when I'm done | 14:17 |
| hyper_ch | building done, rebooting now just to make sure and then test it :) | 14:17 |
| BluesKaj | is there a NixOS chat on irc? | 14:19 |
| hyper_ch | yes | 14:19 |
| BluesKaj | freenode/ | 14:20 |
| BluesKaj | ? | 14:20 |
| hyper_ch | #nixos | 14:20 |
| BluesKaj | ok thanks | 14:20 |
| hyper_ch | now it seems something went wrong :) | 14:21 |
| hyper_ch | kdm didn't start | 14:21 |
| BluesKaj | I might give it a try, but need to do some partitioning first , i don't care for vm installs, there's always something unfixable | 14:21 |
| hyper_ch | BluesKaj: found the error... I installed vbox as guest and not as host :) | 14:31 |
| BluesKaj | oops | 14:32 |
| BluesKaj | hyper_ch, have you tried qemu-kvm, it's very quick compared to virtual box | 14:37 |
| hyper_ch | BluesKaj: haven't tried yet | 14:37 |
| hyper_ch | but I know it's very fast | 14:37 |
| BluesKaj | ok | 14:37 |
| hyper_ch | some people say with according video cards you get almost same performance as under native windows | 14:37 |
| hyper_ch | BluesKaj: my current configuration.nix https://github.com/sjau/nixos/blob/master/configuration.nix | 14:38 |
| hyper_ch | also interesting is the package list for kde: https://nixos.org/wiki/KDE#How_to_install_KDE_4 | 14:38 |
| hyper_ch | will still have to go through there :) | 14:38 |
| hyper_ch | also important: https://nixos.org/wiki/Howto_find_a_package_in_NixOS | 14:39 |
| hyper_ch | next thing I'll have to figure out how to set my kde default settings :) | 14:40 |
| lordievader | People game on kvm ;) | 14:44 |
| hyper_ch | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=37D2bRsthfI | 14:46 |
| hyper_ch | maybe one day, when I'm old, I'll have a look at kvm | 14:46 |
| BluesKaj | well, I'm old and i tried it on kubuntu 14.10 with windows as the guest OS. Windows 7 was very fast etc , but it couldn't see other windows machines on my LAN | 14:50 |
| hyper_ch | no brigded networking? | 14:51 |
| hyper_ch | s/gd/dg/ | 14:51 |
| lordievader | There is. | 14:51 |
| lordievader | Networking is simple linux networking. Whatever you want. | 14:51 |
| hyper_ch | then you should be able to see other machines | 14:52 |
| hyper_ch | works fine with vbox :) | 14:52 |
| lordievader | BluesKaj probably used NAT (default) rather than a bridge connection. | 14:52 |
| BluesKaj | anyway I dual boot W7 and kubuntu 15.104 on the laptop and that's fine for my needs | 14:53 |
| hyper_ch | with kvm, can you have the vm in a window or something? | 14:53 |
| BluesKaj | lordievader, no, I did try a bridged setup, still no luck | 14:54 |
| lordievader | hyper_ch: You connect through vnc or spice. | 15:12 |
| hyper_ch | the spice must flow | 15:13 |
| penguin42 | some of the qemu builds also support qtk or SDL2 windows - not sure if the ubuntu builds are configuredlike that | 16:21 |
| hyper_ch | what's sdl2? | 16:22 |
| hyper_ch | the nice things about vbox is bi-directional clipboard | 16:23 |
| lordievader | Spice supports clipboard stuff, I thought. | 16:23 |
| penguin42 | yeh I think spice can do the clipboard stuff | 16:26 |
| penguin42 | hyper_ch: it's just a graphics library | 16:26 |
| penguin42 | yeh the ubuntu qemu can just run a local window without either spice or vnc | 16:27 |
| hyper_ch | I juse use vbox :) | 16:33 |
| drhalan | hey i want to use overlayfs in wily. is there anything special i need to enable. mount always tells me "unknown filesystem type overlayfs " | 19:13 |
| drhalan | overlay or overlayfs also doesn't show up in /proc/filesystems | 19:13 |
| penguin42 | drhalan: try a modprobe overlayfs | 19:17 |
| penguin42 | drhalan: actually, no, modprobe overlay | 19:17 |
| drhalan | that works thanks? | 19:18 |
| drhalan | i installed overlayroot. is that package needed? | 19:18 |
| * penguin42 doesn't know - never used it | 19:19 | |
| drhalan | oh okay | 19:21 |
| drhalan | do you know what the difference between 'overlay" and “overlayfs" is? both shows up in my /proc/filesystems now | 19:21 |
| penguin42 | no, don't know - I noticed that the kernel module is called overlay.ko although in the overlayfs directory | 19:23 |
