[00:43] you ever find it annoying parted doesn't show unallocated space? [00:44] yeah [00:45] that kinda sucks [00:46] ^^ I am trying to develope the habit to read the numbers. Still just a guessing game . [00:46] it's pretty cool that it can read gpt and msdos though [00:47] yeah, the numbers to the left get mixed up sometimes, it's kind of odd [00:48] that does annoy :D [00:57] netcrash's is a complete mess :( [00:57] yeah [00:57] rH, that's a new one on me [00:58] Held? [00:58] i'm tempted to pull a really ballsy move and just purge the lot and reinstall linux-generic [00:58] but it's a bit irresponsible :D [00:59] hehe [01:06] There is also pulling the rug out from under . rm'n /usr/src/ /lib/modules/ kernel images and headers ; then '-f install' to put the pieces back together . [01:07] O.o [01:07] D: [01:07] EriC^^: i don't get it, it's not reclaiming space at all - perhaps going nuclear is the only approach? [01:07] boot is still full [01:07] how about purge linux-image then put just the latest back on? [01:08] * EriC^^ puts on his radiation suit [01:08] sorry linux-image* [01:09] yeah [01:10] maybe mv /boot/*3.13.0-58-generic /oldboot [01:10] Pray to the freq Gods 1st, that the AC holds up .. a loss in continuity will be real tough to overcome . [01:11] EriC^^: do you think dpkg -P linux-image* would work the easiest? [01:11] i'm not sure which would make it fight less [01:12] i think apt-get is better [01:12] dpkg has failed us [01:12] ok lets see what we can do [01:17] But, 'dpkg' will work in tight overhead contraints whereas 'apt-get' cannot . [01:17] yeah that's true [01:18] it somehow didn't remove the actual files this time, just removed the list from dpkg -l [01:18] *shrug* [01:18] heh it's behaving really oddly [01:19] i wonder if there's a mount overlap thing going on [01:19] i'm trying not to think about it, it's like a nerd snipe waiting to happen [01:20] :D [01:20] catching us out? mmm could be [01:20] i bet 'sudo apt-get -f install' will try and throw on a bunch of old 3.13.0-3x versions again [01:20] lol [01:22] that was probably the ugliest way of doing that one but eh, hopefully it works ;) [01:23] ;) [01:24] i swear if apt-get -f install... *shakes fist* [01:25] awesome [01:25] \o/ [01:25] do we need anything else to ensure EFI boot will be ok? [01:25] nah [01:25] earlier he had a linux-image generic.efi blah blah but there hasn't been one for a while [01:25] ah cool :> [01:26] some of the files are still in /boot though [01:27] the initrd's [01:27] i wonder what would happen if he just rm them [01:27] it's so odd [01:28] oh yeah i mean all of it was, i just had them all moved to /oldboot [01:28] we'll just pretend it never happened 8D [01:28] oh [01:29] nothing like a good sweeping under the carpet [01:29] :D [01:36] i better get to bed, gnite daftykins Bashing-om [01:37] nn sir o/ [01:38] Nighty, come back finer n a frog's hair . [01:42] hehehe [03:31] good morning to all [03:34] lotuspsychje, https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/a8/c5/92/a8c592f438b6c79189db6d9bdfc748e3.jpg [03:35] cfhowlett: lol tnx! [03:35] * lotuspsychje calls wolf to clean up the kitchen afterwards [03:36] That would e MR. or THE Wolf iirc. [03:36] ah right [03:37] its long time ago :p [07:51] Good morning. [10:36] yes but no [10:36] No but yes? [12:38] Hi everyone [12:39] o/ [12:50] good afternoon mates [12:51] hi [12:52] hello MonkeyDust [12:53] http://linux.softpedia.com/blog/the-default-wallpapers-of-ubuntu-15-10-wily-werewolf-gallery-493511.shtml [12:53] willy wallz [12:57] hi glebihan [12:59] yowza cfhowlett :p [13:00] hey ^3 lotuspsychje [13:00] whats the time in china [13:00] 15h00 here [13:00] 2100 Central China Time [13:00] belgian sunny weather here [13:00] time for ... [13:00] IRC! [13:00] coffee and waffles?? [13:00] lol [13:01] cfhowlett: did the wolf come clean yet? [13:01] indeed [13:06] !mircspec [13:07] !mirspec [13:07] Details about Mir can be found here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mir/Spec [13:07] wow looks pretty complex [13:11] !paid [13:11] If you've purchased software from the Software Centre and are experiencing issues please consult https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Pay [13:11] * lotuspsychje is browsing new factoids [13:12] tieinv: afternoon [13:12] lotuspsychje, morning [13:13] !upgradeofflts [13:13] To upgrade from an LTS release of Ubuntu to the next (non-LTS) release, run sudoedit /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades and change the prompt= line to "prompt=normal". Then, do sudo do-release-upgrade to begin the upgrade. [13:13] so this would make 14.04 goto 15.04 right? [13:14] lotuspsychje, nope. it would try 14.10 but as 14.10 is no longer live, eolupgrade [13:15] so in wich cases do we need this trigger? [13:15] for those cases when someone requests LTS > next release [13:15] 16.04 -> 16.10? [13:16] yep [13:16] cool [13:17] 12.10 and 14.10 eol so [13:18] !shellshock [13:18] Ubuntu has released security updates for both recent bash vulnerabilities for all currently-supported versions of Ubuntu.

[13:22] * lotuspsychje hides [13:35] going slow again today [13:35] ubuntu is so good, users dont have troubles anymore [13:35] Let's just believe that is the thing... [13:35] fewer users, more trollers ... [13:37] soon we will be outa work [13:38] Meh, don't think so. [13:38] lol [13:38] the 15.10 rush is almost there yayyyy [13:38] Some people go to great lengths to redifine stupid actions. [13:44] i didnt have ubuntu-restricted-extras installed and never noticed! [13:45] that's bad? [13:45] that's good, everything worked as it should [13:46] and your flash works ? [13:47] like in, youtube.com? [13:47] yeah [13:48] yup [13:48] nice [13:48] "The HTML5 player is currently used when possible. " [14:14] EriC^^: afternoon mate [14:14] afternoon lotus [14:19] nice cartoon: Americans all carry a weapon, to defend themselves against people with a weapon [14:19] lol [16:42] I was referred here. Hi guyz. [16:43] Any body online? [17:18] Question: is my hardware up to spec for running Ubuntu? https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B1XfDBb8toplNkVzeWpXS1NvMG8 [17:19] DosTuMai: Of course, potatoes are capable of running anything! [17:20] Potatoes > pies. [17:20] Phew. [17:21] Glad I upgraded the hardware from a lemon. [17:21] Ah, yeah. Lemons are a bit sour. [17:22] Found the RAM kept breking, too. [17:22] Breaking, also... [17:23] That is the acid in the lemon it dissolves part of the ram makeing it easier to break.. [17:23] Damn you, citric acid. *Fist shake.* === DosTuMai is now known as DossieWossieBoo === DJones is now known as D === D is now known as DJOnes [20:07] hmm this guy saying you can cp an iso to a /dev/sdx sounds interesting [20:08] would probably make helping make flash drives a lot easier if true [20:09] I done inserted my foot in my mouth this day, I hope 1 is my quota for the day . Let's see if 'cp' will do that ( I do have my doubts !) . [20:20] yeah i'm a bit hesitant, i'm not on a host system to test right now though [20:23] Human nature to make things more complicated than they are ? [20:25] Pretty much. Doesn't Ubuntu mount .iso files without doing a cp to /dev/sdx? [20:27] DossieWossieBoo: I do it : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/ISOBoot <-Ubuntu ISOs are designed to allow booting directly from the hard drive using GRUB 2 and eliminates the need for burning a CD/DVD. [20:29] That's pretty much what I do. [20:29] well that's lovely and all, but not hugely practical for new users [20:31] ^^ a fact. Booting the .iso does take a level of familiarity ( and want to ). [20:32] definitely would be handy for all those ones we get that want to clean install but don't have a flash drive (somehow) :D [21:59] bbl... dinnertime [22:26] can't be long before 15.04's death now, no? January? [22:28] AndroUser is getting the full teams attention today :) [22:29] Yeah, and making of patience a virtue . [22:29] TJ-: fwiw i already checked for ~/ file ownership, intel only graphics according to Xorg's log, but i gave up on the sight of PPAs and said just reinstall :D [22:29] no idea why it boots him, we also tried another user account [22:29] (freshly made one) though can't be sure that it was made correctly [22:30] Really? Hmm, I saw mention it is kubuntu using sddm, is that correct? [22:31] yeah, although he's messed around with switching that to lightdm i think now [22:31] http://paste.ubuntu.com/12655595/ [22:31] here's a sign of how crufted that install is ;) [22:34] daftykins: incorrect paths in the sources.list [22:35] bit annoyed i was lied to about ~/ [22:35] must be the guy didn't know how to 'less' a listing at a TTY [22:36] Looks like an Android user :) [22:36] i wonder why androuser uses alien/rpm, as he has a .rpmdb in his homefolder... [22:36] probably from another ridiculous installation that goes hand in hand with all those messy PPAs :( [22:37] oh, then he should try #kubuntu :-D [22:37] XD [22:37] TJ-: how are the huskies today sir? [22:38] OerHeks: I've had that in the past from breaking source-code out of RPMs [22:38] Well, they got me round the field in about 20 minutes this afternoon ( Pepper tows me on the bike!) - usually takes 40 minutes [22:39] TJ-, there are surely reasons, i just wonder why he uses it. especially with sddm [22:39] :O [22:39] they wanted to get home and warm maybe :) [22:39] Silver has the hump because I'm not letting her on the leather sofa where she keeps making a mess :D [22:39] hahaha, doggy is denied [22:39] i was just vacuuming up several spare cats around my place [22:39] She's a sly one too... the moment we're not looking she sneaks on very quilety [22:40] Oh, we do that daily the Huskies never stop shedding [22:42] Errr, daftykins were those messages for this channel :D [22:42] nah :) [22:42] i figure even if you get him going, that install is full of cruft [22:42] but ah well [23:03] https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B1XfDBb8toplSWcxWE5PZkNCcEE [23:04] what's this? [23:04] It's a link. [23:04] you know we usually leave the stupid statements to #ubuntu :) [23:05] daftykins: I'm keeping at it since I'm interested in the KDE side of things (probably going to start coding for KDE) so I'm trying to get to know it inside-out [23:05] I just thought I'd do something unexpected... [23:05] TJ-: ah rightyo, good practice then [23:06] (II) HELPER: Starting: "/usr/share/sddm/scripts/Xsession" "gnome-session --session=cairo-dock" [23:06] o0 [23:07] do i spy a conflict o0 [23:08] maybe a stupid thought: does that drive contain errors, so it is read only now? [23:09] after trying to set a cookie, something stops , see line 133 and on [23:11] daftykins: Yeah, but the timestamps are WAY in the past [23:11] ah is it one of those new in the top files o0 [23:11] The last entry is 13:40, the last start attempt was around 18:30 [23:12] he claimed it was an upgrade from 14.10 to 15.04 [23:13] It looks like there may be several DEs installed === JanC_ is now known as JanC === DossieWossieBoo is now known as DosTuMai
