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