| Newk | maybe not the right place to ask: i made a bootable stick with unetbootin of lubuntu 16.04... now i gave it 1gig of extra space to save things... are updates to that system being saved additional or are those taking the place of the older ones? i hope the lather.. otherwise it would take unescesarry space and perhaps even boottime? | 01:38 |
|---|---|---|
| teward | Newk: so you created the USB stick with persistence? | 01:39 |
| Newk | yes | 01:42 |
| Newk | i think so | 01:42 |
| Newk | in unetbootin there was an option to add space for saving across sessions | 01:43 |
| Newk | or is this something else? | 01:43 |
| teward | that's persistence, yes. | 01:56 |
| teward | Newk: as I understand persistence, and I may be wrong, any differences from the live filesystem are stored on the persistence you set up - that means things get saved there, updates, etc. at least AIUI | 01:57 |
| teward | but that may have changed | 01:57 |
| Newk | i hope they changed that for updates... otherwise it would need to update itself upon boottime everytime | 02:09 |
| Newk | or at least move paths to the updates in persistence folder.. and the old packages just sit there and take space | 02:10 |
| teward | it's been a while since I messed with persistence so eh | 02:11 |
| Newk | you just use usb to install it on several machines and update from there? i guess thats the general idea... then we might need a way to update iso's to current packages | 02:12 |
| teward | well, most of my systems are virtualized, so... I just don't bother with persistence, VPN into my network and use remote desktop or such to reach into my Linux systems. Usually from another Linux system. | 02:14 |
| Newk | i guess once they have a working iso they are happy enough and only change it when something really is broken (like no working wifi or the likes) | 02:14 |
| Newk | ah | 02:14 |
| Newk | hmm.. the updating of packages on the live-usb just failed.. not enough space | 02:16 |

| n-iCe | hi | 17:34 |
| NSABear | Hey | 17:49 |
| NSABear | How do I dist-upgrade? | 17:49 |
| NSABear | I'm on 14.04 | 17:50 |
| NSABear | Dist-upgrade merely upgraded 14.04 | 17:50 |
| lynorian | NSABear, dist-upgrade is supposed to do that | 17:53 |
| NSABear | it didn't. | 17:54 |
| NSABear | I'm doing update-manager -d | 17:54 |
| NSABear | lynorian, 16.04 is still in dev? | 18:00 |
| lynorian | no but upgrading from 14.04 is not supported until july for .1 | 18:00 |
| NSABear | The update window said it is | 18:01 |
| lynorian | that is because you ran -d | 18:01 |
| NSABear | crap | 18:02 |
| lynorian | the text on the window is not perfect | 18:02 |
| NSABear | So will I be ok with the upgrade | 18:02 |
| NSABear | using -d | 18:02 |
| NSABear | I'm going t odo a fresh install | 18:08 |
| NSABear | I have a broken package installed | 18:08 |
| NSABear | How do I switch over to the AMD Proprietary drivers? | 18:09 |
| teward | NSABear: what Lubuntu version? | 18:10 |
| teward | 14.04? 16.04? | 18:10 |
| NSABear | yea | 18:11 |
| NSABear | what else would I do? | 18:11 |
| teward | NSABear: there are no proprietary drivers for AMD in 16.04 | 18:13 |
| teward | AMD has killed it off and is now giving effort to the OpenSource ones | 18:13 |
| teward | if that doesn't work for you, 14.04 is what you'll need to use | 18:14 |
| teward | this isn't Lubuntu-centric either | 18:14 |
| NSABear | oh no the Opensource are amazing | 18:14 |
| NSABear | Like jesus christ they are amazing | 18:14 |
| NSABear | I was just hoping to use the proprietary to get a bit more performance | 18:14 |
| teward | NSABear: you can't because there are no more proprietary ones | 18:14 |
| NSABear | yes, I know | 18:14 |
| NSABear | You said that. I was saying why I was going to use them | 18:15 |
| teward | ok | 18:15 |
| teward | well, enjoy :) | 18:15 |
| teward | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XenialXerus/ReleaseNotes#fglrx if oyu're curious on the specifics | 18:15 |
| NSABear | I'm doing the upgrade because I want Obs studio | 18:15 |
| NSABear | So would I be ok dd'ing the iso to my usb | 18:22 |
