[01:22] anyone recommend a good virtual machine tutorial for xubuntu? [01:42] damn it. cpu doesn't support vt-x :( [01:49] check bios it might be turned off [01:52] nah I checked intel specs [01:52] not supported [02:38] do you guys usually install xubuntu on vm or just try it from iso? [02:58] ax562: for testing? [02:58] yes [02:59] I'll get a link to our QA documentation [02:59] i think that's chapter 5 [02:59] ax562: http://docs.xubuntu.org/contributors/qa-testing.html [03:00] i'm actually on it atm [03:00] oh ok :) [03:00] "usually" isn't really a thing, some people do it right on bare metal (I do), others do most of their testing in virtualization [03:00] and there are tests for both Live and installation [03:01] if you follow the links to the ISO tracker you'll see different scenarios [03:01] so for today on the yakkety daily build, you have these options: http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/360/builds/123628/testcases [03:02] 3 of them are install tests, one live session, and some post install tasks [03:03] the live ones are obviously the easiest since they should leave your installed system intact (I've never had a problem, but this is pre-alpha software, disclaimer here)) but we need all of them done, so the install tests are very valuable [03:17] ah ok pleia2 [03:17] well right now im running a vm install of 16.10 on my vm dynamic hdd [03:18] and it's going sloooow [03:18] yeah, it'll be slow on a vm on a system old enough not to have hardware virt :( [03:19] you may find bugs that others with faster systems don't encounter though, which is worthwhile [03:21] cool well still trucking ;p [03:40] yakkety is 16.10 right? [03:41] Aup. [03:41] my vm iso says loading 16.04? [03:41] That's just plymouth, ignore 'er. [03:41] actually "xubuntu 16.04..." [03:41] ok thanks [03:41] finally finished installing [03:41] ;) [04:47] so far so good :) [05:00] terminal is working great so is firefox [05:11] do I have to add theses ppas [05:11] Shimmer Themes for daily builds of the Shimmer Project’s projects [05:11] Xubuntu Staging for packages and package versions that are being prepared for inclusion in Xubuntu [05:11] Xubuntu daily builds for daily Git and Bzr builds for packages related to Xubuntu and/or Xfce4 [05:16] ax562: no you don't 'have' to add ppa's [05:16] is deb = xdeb in xubuntu universe? [05:18] not if you're talking about .deb's [05:22] deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/shimmerproject/daily/ubuntu yakkety main [05:23] the tutorial linked me to add the ppa like this [05:23] but terminal through back error did you mean xdeb [05:23] did it? got a link to that? [05:23] https://launchpad.net/~shimmerproject/+archive/ubuntu/daily [05:24] http://docs.xubuntu.org/contributors/qa-testing.html [05:24] ^that is what i'm following [05:24] it didn't actually say to add it but it says you will need it [05:24] ax562: you don't have to use those [05:24] then it linked me to the shimmerproject link [05:24] ok cool [05:24] moving on lol [05:25] i need a cig [05:25] using ppa's is more for people who run the dev version as a prod setup [05:26] still learning [05:26] what's a prod setup [05:27] I use yakkety as my normal setup [05:27] kind of like yo0ur daily driver? [05:28] kind of [05:28] hmmm [05:28] I did so much today lmao [05:28] :) [05:29] i've literally ran through 3 os's [05:29] partitions left and right [05:39] Pretty sure he tried that as a commandline... [05:40] :) === pavlushka_ is now known as pavlushka [11:46] hello [17:56] knome: on reflecting while depressed today ;) I still think we should move on and call for nominations [17:57] one way or the other we'll be wanting to do so regardless [20:28] probably, but the candidates do not know what exactly is waiting for them, so i would wait for at least the first ack from CC [20:28] again, i can ping the CC to try to speed it up [20:28] i mean this shouldn't really take long at all.. [20:32] anyway [20:32] off to sauna [20:32] bbl [21:04] At least there shouldn't be too many things that need team leads this cycle [21:04] no, and what's the problem with needing team leads? the team leads still continue their work as usual [21:04] Hiding. >_> [21:04] :D [21:05] the only thing that is in flux is the XPL spot/structure, and we haven't fortunately needed the XPL to resolve many disagreements lately... [21:05] knome: I disagree! [21:05] but of course you do [21:05] but we know how to handle that already [21:05] * knome gets the whip [21:06] :3 [21:57] That deluge issue is fixed, ax562. [21:58] oh cool thanks [21:58] do you know how I can update my iso without downloading a whole new iso? [21:58] !zsync [21:58] Use zsync to update your Ubuntu CD image without needing to download the parts that didn't change. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ZsyncCdImage [22:05] hell yeah [22:05] ax562, please remember this is a family-friendly channel... [22:05] that's a beautiful option [22:05] heck yeah :) [22:05] meh [22:06] if you need to think how else you can say something, then you shouldn't say it at all :P [22:06] i guess [22:06] i was excited [22:06] that's not an excuse though... [22:07] lol [22:07] You can also rsync. [22:09] Unit193 have you tried rsync? [22:09] I've used both. [22:10] do you prefer 1 over the other? [22:11] If you're limited on bw, use zsync. [22:11] rsync for backups, zsync for ISOs [22:12] I was reading it was less efficient [22:12] rsync [22:13] a friendly tip: don't read everything on everything, you'll end up spending more/all time in reading and trying to optimize rather than get things done (tm) [22:14] ax562: Try one, try the other, pick which works better for you. Keep in mind of course that some days more changes on the ISO than other days. [22:15] if there is change I should have fetched correct? [22:15] pick the one of which first letter you want to press more often on the keyboard [22:17] knome: I like the letter 'x' [22:17] you can alias either one to xsynz [22:17] err [22:17] xsync too [22:34] woo, we got our first story submission :) [22:34] indeed [23:49] what\s the best way to check if bug has been reported? [23:53] ax562, search launchpad. [23:54] ax562, or with common bugs, you can likely find them in the qa trackers' report pages [23:54] thanks
