[03:56] <mv-var2root> I am trying to move /var back to / instead of its own partition, because I am out of space. How should I do this?
[04:12] <SporkWitch> mv-var2root: that is so much a google question that when i googled it to confirm my advice, it was in the giant blurb at the top, with numbered steps (read: i didn't even have to click on one of the results)
[04:13] <SporkWitch> search "move var to another partition
[04:13] <mv-var2root> I googled it to, and that answer doesn't seem to fit my issue
[04:14] <mv-var2root> var is already on a separate partition.
[04:14] <mv-var2root> I want to un-separate it from /
[04:14] <mv-var2root> so I can make /home (sharing a device with /var) bigger.
[04:16] <mv-var2root> does that make sense or are you confused, sporkwitch?
[04:17] <SporkWitch> mv-var2root: it shouldn't make a difference whether you're moving it to root or from root.  The procedure would be the same.
[04:19] <mv-var2root> so it's same thing even though i'm moving /var to an already existing partition?
[04:19] <mv-var2root> because that's the part that's confusing me is that all the results i got were people asking about moving var to a new partiton.
[04:21] <mv-var2root> of course, none if this matters at all if I can simply make a /foo with permissons that libvirt won't complain about.
[04:21] <mv-var2root> i can't seem to get it to have permissions for any other directory besides /var/lib/libvirt/images
[04:22] <mv-var2root> and /var is just too small. maybe my questions was too much work for what I really needed?
[04:22]  * mv-var2root is schizophrenia and can be confused/ing sometimes.
[04:27] <SporkWitch> so this is really an XY problem, heh
[04:28] <SporkWitch> the real problem is you need to help learning qemu-kvm, the permissions it needs, and how to set them.
[04:28] <SporkWitch> i would ask for help in that channel.
[04:28] <mv-var2root> i tried to go to that channel but i couldn't connect to them
[04:29] <SporkWitch> as far as moving /var, yes, it would be the same.
[04:29] <SporkWitch> most channels won't let you talk unless you register your nick.  Some won't even let you enter.
[04:30] <SporkWitch> you need to register with nickserv by typing: /msg nickserv register <password> <email>
[04:30] <SporkWitch> mv-var2root: i'd choose a better nickname before doing so, though; you can change you nick with: /nick <newnick>
[05:10] <ChetManly> is the issue with dual display lightdm login manager still an issue?
[05:10] <ChetManly> or whatever its called now?

[08:28] <user|86388> hi, how install new kde in kubuntu 16.04, i think about KDE repo testing
[08:28] <SporkWitch> user|86388: do you mean the backports?
[08:28] <SporkWitch> user|86388: if so, google 'kubuntu backports 16.04'
[08:29] <user|86388> my  next ask, kde neon = backports?
[08:32] <acheronuk> no, neon is not kubuntu backports
[08:36] <user|86388> ok thanks for help, backport is instaling
[08:37] <acheronuk> what do you mean by "i think about KDE repo testing"?
[08:38] <acheronuk> If you are literally looking for development builds of kde packages rather than stable releases, Neon might be better for you.

[11:45] <Ajaxx> hi all
[11:57] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[20:31] <emma> randomly but not infrequently my audio just stops workig. When I look in the audio volume in the taskbar there is even a red speaker at the bottom. When I try to adjust anything then kpannel crashes.
[20:31] <emma> the only known way to get audio back is to turn off my laptop and restart it
[20:31] <emma> Any ideas how to get audio back *that will be faster and easier than* restarting my laptop?
[20:37] <emma> looks like i have to restart then.
[20:39] <valorie> emma: you might try alsa-tools...... I think that's the name
[20:39] <valorie> sec
[20:40] <valorie> yeah, that's the name
[20:40] <valorie> in your commandline, just `alsa-tools` as I recall
[20:40] <valorie> !alsa
[20:42] <valorie> emma: it is probably not random, but something like skype or flash hogging the sound
[20:42] <valorie> there is a widget to control pulseaudio if that's the case
[20:43] <valorie> hmmm, where did that go
[20:45] <valorie> pavucontrol
[22:58] <linux__> When I run text file by kate does not run the file from start line, it is run from last edited line , How I can stop this option?
