ubottuEnd-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades00:01
valorieinteresting, that's not the page I wanted00:02
ifohancroftI have check that page actually and it's the one that confused me. It has different EOL dates for 14.04, 14.04.03 and others etc00:02
valorieright, LTS support is only given if you upgrade to the point releases00:03
valorieso no support for 14.0400:04
valorieyou must upgrade to 14.04.03 for support00:04
ifohancroftso the EOL of 14.04.03 is actually 2016?00:04
valoriewhere are you seeing that, ifohancroft?00:05
ifohancroftvalorie https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases#Current - Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS Trusty Tahr Changes August 6, 2015 HWE August 201600:07
ifohancrofteven though I don't really know what the HWE before the date in the EOL column means00:07
D-rexHardware enablement stacks00:08

lapionHello08:52
lapionI ahve a frozen kubuntu upgrade in session08:52
ozohi08:52
lapioncan anyone help08:52
ozohahaha08:53
lapionFrom the logfile I know the upgrade is frozen at a question about whether to replace a cinnamon file or not08:53
lapionthis is a reinstall last time It got frozen at the same point and I did a restore08:54
valorieby frozen, what do you mean?08:54
valoriekeyboard and everything?08:54
lapionthe gui of the installer is frozen08:55
lapiongui of the upgrade is frozen08:55
lapionso I cannot select to open the built-in terminal08:55
valoriecan you get into a terminal with contro+alt+f2 or so?08:56
lapionthe X-server is not frozen so I can open anyh other program08:56
lapionand yes I have the regular virtual terminals..08:56
lapionCTRL-Alt-F[1-12]08:57
hateballmanolo: well I realize it doesnt help you, I am just saying it's not broken for *me* :)08:57
valorieso you can try to `sudo apt update`08:57
lapionvalorie the upgrade is frozen last time I killed dpkg and wily and tried to fix the system with apt update and everything but the install cannot be fixed.08:59
lapionis there anyway to access the terminal used by the upgrade from another terminal ?08:59
valoriethen try `sudo apt install -f` where -f means fix08:59
manoloi understand, i saw the new version is not really installed, the obsolete version was removed but not replaced by the new one :(   (Removing libvncclient0:i386 (0.9.9+dfsg-6~ubuntu14.04.1~ppa1)08:59
valorieI've had bad upgrades before09:00
valoriesometimes I've had to run the same commands a few times09:00
lapionvalorie, tried to fix this same situation before I had to do a restore and retry the upgrade09:01
lapiononly to find out it is a reproducable upgrade problem09:01
valorieI've just pushed through it, with success09:01
valoriethe computer I'm using right now has been upgraded, not a fresh install09:02
valorie15.04 > 15.1009:02
valorieno problems09:02
valorie14.10 > 15.04 was a bit more difficult09:02
lapionvalorie, the upgrade program is frozen and awaiting an answer that I cannot gize becuase the built-in console will not open09:03
hateballlapion: do-release-upgrade runs in a screen so you should be able to attach to it, yes09:03
lapionhateball, screen says there is none09:03
hateballlapion: did you: sudo screen -list09:04
hateballas the upgrade doesnt run as your user09:04
hateballat any rate "ps aux|grep screen" should show a running process, I'd think09:04
lapionhateball, No Sockets found in /var/run/screen/S-root.09:05
hateball;f09:05
lapionhateball, /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libexec/kf5/kscreen_backend_launcher09:05
hateballlapion: hmm. well, google suggests http://serverfault.com/questions/387547/how-do-i-reattach-to-ubuntu-servers-do-release-upgrade-process09:06
hateballthat is, kill the upgrade, dpkg reconfigure09:06
lapionhateball, well back to the restore then.. last time did not end well... thank goodness for backups09:08
hateballlapion: did you try the suggestion in the thread?09:10
lapionno screens active09:10
lapionall I can see that "wily" has console: /dev/pts/1 (deleted)09:12
lapionand /dev/pts/2 is still active09:13
hateballI am talking about the part in the very first post under the bold UPDATE:09:13
lapionhateball, I tried that last time this happened. I ended up restoring my previous system09:14
manolohave to reboot, c u m8s09:15

jonahHi can anyone help. My sound card is no longer working so I'm trying to switch from gstreamer to vlc-backend in phonon. I've installed phonon-backend-vlc but when I go to Audio settings it doesn't show in the Backends section so I can't use it still. Does anyone know how to get it in the kde audio settings list?12:33
