Bashing-omlotuspsychje: I earlier updated 17.04 and lost access to the GUI . ^^ Mesa may well be at fault .00:37
* lotuspsychje will stick to lts00:38
* nacc has had no problem with 17.0400:40
Bashing-omOh 17.04 on a different drive ! .. Let me tell ya that having my primary on this SSD has spoiled me to anything other than a core install !00:40
lotuspsychjenacc: ubuntu desktop?00:40
nacclotuspsychje: ubuntu gnome desktop00:40
lotuspsychjenacc: cool! any noticable changes?00:40
nacclotuspsychje: off the top of my head? no :)00:41
Bashing-omthe failure for me is on the 17.04 gnome desktop . Not messed a lot about it yet .00:41
nacclotuspsychje: but i'm also not a super active desktop user, i'm 95% in the terminal00:41

ducassegood morning all07:18
Bashing-omducasse: \o . It is Friday and the trolls are ganging up on us .07:19
ducassehere it's now saturday morning. i noticed them in main, yes. that's what the weekend brings, unfortunately...07:21
Bashing-omThink now is a good time to investigate my dream state rather than the state of the trolls .07:23
ducasseget some sleep if you need it, at this time it's usually going to be quiet anyway.07:24
baizonnice, no firmware update for my ssd :)07:41
ducassei know there are for the two in my desktop, but i have no windows to install them from.07:44
baizonyeah i hate that also07:45
baizonfirmware upgrades... you need windows :/07:45
ducassethe enterprise drives from samsung has a linux updater, but not the consumer stuff.07:45
ducassewhich i'm sure update in a *wildly* different manner...07:46

BluesKajHiyas all11:03
=== JanC_ is now known as JanC
ducassehi BluesKaj, all good in your corner of the world?15:51
BluesKajhi ducasse, yes, fine here and you?15:52
ducassegood here :) really nice weather today, went out for a walk earlier. i live halfway up a hill with a small wood at the top, really nice for walking.15:54
BluesKajnice :-)15:57
ducassea little baffled here, seems users should not be booting their systems post install and install packages from the repo :)15:57
BluesKaja normal procedure that's causing problems then15:59
ducassean update broke this guys wifi, and he gets told 'you installed packages, not going to help'. just thought that was a bit extreme, nobody mentioned third party stuff. *shrug*16:05
BluesKajfrom where did he install the packages ?16:06
BluesKajmore than a bit extreme, totally wrong IMO if he installed from the repos16:07
ducassehe just did an apt update.16:07
ducasse16:50 <tatertots> lysobit: you've already described something that was induced by the end users during your testimony.  you have already admit and acknowledge the symptom occurred post initial installation and after installing some new packages16:08
BluesKajstrangre attitude for sure, ..lots of words trying to imply wrong doing ...think he's trying to dance or tip toe way from being called on it16:10
BluesKajmarlarkey/baloney/BS in other words :-)16:11
ducasse"during your testimony"? lol :)16:11
BluesKajhehe yeah16:11
ducassenvm, maybe he's having a rough day. did you give up entirely on neon?16:12
BluesKajyes, it wasn't to my liking ...wifi problems that I couldn't fix so I went back to jessie on the laptop16:15
pavlushkacan anyone refer me to a world history channel? or answer this, what it means that a country has a tactical victory but strategic failure on a same battle and how so?16:36
DJonespavlushka: That sounds like a case were a county has won a battle, but lost the war16:38
pavlushkaty DJones :)16:38
DJonesI could be wrong with that interpretation16:39
ducassepavlushka: there is ##history, if that helps?16:40
pavlushkaaha, thanks :)16:44
ducassepavlushka: '/msg alis list *history*' told me ;)16:46
pavlushkaducasse: thanks again :)16:48
ducassenp :)16:48
ducasseBluesKaj: i'm still playing with arch, but haven't decided between it and debian sid yet.16:48
ducassestill use ubuntu on the laptop and server, though.16:49
BluesKajyeah, I'm sill testing kubuntu-zesty on another partition here17:02
BluesKajand debian stretch on the other17:02
ducassezesty is what's on my laptop, guess i'll use a spare ssd for sid on the desktop.17:03
ducassei like arch a lot, but i must say i may have become too dependent on a lot of debian/ubuntuisms17:04
BluesKajthis pc has 4 partittions om the ssd and a swap on the hdd17:05
BluesKajom=on17:05
ducassei put separate distros on separate ssds and just add them to the uefi firmware.17:07
BluesKajthe hdd is an esata to sata connection with all the media files on it17:07
ducassei don't think my new desktop has esata, actually. all media etc is on the zfs file server in the "server room" :)17:09
ducassei use the term very loosely ;)17:09
BluesKajesata is for outboard enclosures, but rather than use the slower usb i picked up an esata to sata cable for it17:11
ducasseprobably wise, as you skip the sata-usb-sata conversion. not all of them support smart etc.17:13
BluesKajthe hdd is still portable, if needed .I plan to backup wife's pc with clonezilla one of these days to save all her game files etc in case her hdd fails17:16
BluesKajit's getting old17:17
BluesKajplan on replacing the hdd with a ssd in the near future anyway. I think it's time17:18
ducassei don't think i've got any external drives, i rely entirely on the file server and remote backups.17:21
ducasseboth my desktop and laptop are ssd only now, and it was definitely worth the money.17:23
