xubuntu25wHi. I recently installed Xubuntu alongside win 8.1 on my laptop and I'm having a problem to connect to the internet. Broadcom Linux STS driver is loading only in live session.01:00
Lachezar_Hey all. Upraded kernel to 3.19.0-31.35, and now my (Lenovo T530) laptop freezes on login screen, ALT-SYSRQ-REISUB does not help CTRL-ALT-F1 too, only a force-shutdown holding the power button does anything. I'm now booted in the previous version 3.19.0-30.34. Is this something known?08:22

xubuntu06wPeople I need help. Do I need a new fresh formated partition to install xubuntu?17:03
morfnah the installer can erase the disk for you17:03
morfyou can pick from few presets + you can setup the partitions during installation17:04
xubuntu06wI have data on both current partitions17:04
xubuntu06wI was just wondering if I could just install it on a used partition with my files and have them saved17:05
morfwell...17:05
morfyou can make space for a new partition from livecd17:06
morfor install to existing partition17:06
morfwith supported filesystem i guess17:06
morfbut pretty much all this sucks more or less17:06
xubuntu06wWell I'm just going to backup all the data and install on a empty partition17:07
xubuntu06wThanks for help17:07
xubuntu06w:)17:07
morfyeah17:07
morfconsider having disk for os and for data17:07
morfe.g. separate system and data17:07

xubuntu06wI'm just installing linux on an old pc and keeping the current system17:09

GurkenglasTrying to autocomplete things in the terminal with tab produces badness sometimes: http://pastebin.com/r14g7JRV23:51
GurkenglasIt started when I did "sudo ./configure" in the Haskell GHC package I think? Possibly a lil before or after23:52
