WobboI have a i5-3337U, so 20 min is to long.08:33
Wobboreboot? If I do, boot wondt work anymore.08:34
davmor2Wobbo: you can try cancelling the upgrade and then run sudo dpkg --configure -a  or failing that reboot if it doesn't boot use rescue mode on grub and run dpkg --configure -a from there instead08:46
WobboHow to cancel it? Reboot, or stop in using gnome-system-monitor?08:49
davmor2Wobbo: click on the x, click on the cancel button, find the process number and kill it the list goes on08:51

* brobostigon is in the same boat as knightwise 11:02
Seekerplease set sail immediately so you don't infect the rest of us11:03
davmor2knightwise, brobostigon: it's all the hugging it's not good for you, go look at cat videos instead and be sad and lonely like the rest of us you'll feel much better for it ;)11:06
brobostigonlast time someone hugged me was 3.5/4 months ago, so i dont think hugging counts.11:07
* Seeker hopes his flu jab works this year11:08
* brobostigon cant have the flu jab, it contains something that derived from milk, which he is allergic to.11:09

zmoylan-piwhereas you could... you know put a spreadsheet together and punch in the number on the meter and get that number now without any installation hassle...15:17
