| Spass | I'm planning to move Xubuntu testing to my main machine and I want to set it up similar to what flocculant was talking yesterday what he has | 10:56 |
|---|---|---|
| Spass | that way I'll be able to do exploratory testing more often | 10:57 |
| Spass | I have small questions regarding that, I have two drives in my machine 120GB for OS and 500GB for data, I want to install something stable on 120GB and use it as my main machine and I want to use some space from 500GB to create two partitions for Xubuntu daily installs | 10:59 |
| Spass | one with all PPAa enabled, and the other one "pure" daily | 10:59 |
| Spass | question 1) is it better to do testing on PPA enabled install with newest packages or on pure daily? | 11:00 |
| Spass | 2) how much space I'll need for these installs? I'm thinking 40GB for pure and 60GB for PPA enabled with some more stuff | 11:02 |
| Spass | 3) I assume when I'll install current AA daily I can just 'apt upgrade' it from time to time and I will be OK? | 11:03 |
| flocculant | 1 - that's the one I run as my daily | 11:40 |
| flocculant | 2 - if there's no data in the installs the answer is different :) my daily is probably too big - it has 17Gb of free space | 11:41 |
| flocculant | similar for my other artful install | 11:41 |
| flocculant | 3 - yes | 11:41 |
| flocculant | Spass: all my installs go on my 120Gb drive - the 2 artfuls and the 16.04 | 11:43 |
| flocculant | as I said - probably all too big - and I have ~52Gb of free space there | 11:45 |
| flocculant | but - all of my real data is elsewhere on 3 other drives | 11:45 |
| Spass | ok, so I'll do something like - PPA 75GB, non-PPA 25GB, because I'll add some stuff on that bigger testing install, like Steam games, NVIDIA drivers from PPA etc. | 11:47 |
| Spass | I'll have a reason to boot to it from time to time, to do some gaming ;) | 11:47 |
| Spass | my plan is to keep my main OS on 120GB completely separate, without any unstable packages and non-free software even | 11:48 |
| flocculant | yep - that all sounds sensible | 11:50 |
| Spass | and I will install Xubuntu LTS on my laptop and occasionally do some Live Session testing from USB on it if needed | 11:50 |
| Spass | but before that I'll finish testing daily packages.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/ on that laptop | 11:55 |
| Spass | ok, so I guess that's a plan, yesterday's session was helpful, thanks | 11:57 |
| flocculant | thanks - makes it worthwhile for me :) | 11:59 |

| bluesabre | morning all | 13:39 |
| bluesabre | interesting fact, video does not work in parole when running with CSD (probably because the X libraries were dropped with GTK3 in those areas) | 14:59 |
| bluesabre | and opengl seems to lock up intel graphics with a core 2 duo :D | 15:01 |
| stevehope | does 17.04 have https://bugzilla.xfce.org/buglist.cgi?bug_id=13541%2C13562 ? | 15:55 |
| Spass | I have a problem with today's daily ISO, it won't boot, tried creating USB with gnome-disks and Etcher | 17:35 |
| Spass | I see Plymouth screen with logo and spinning circle, it takes a while, then > https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B8qh4-wxxEZ7dGxtcmtVNEh6M0U | 17:36 |
| Spass | ISO downloaded twice, using Firefox and zsync | 17:37 |
| Spass | hmm, it boots in VirtualBox | 17:52 |
| Spass | tried again, legacy and uefi boot, pc and laptop, no success | 18:13 |
| flocculant | yup - not just ours though - checked 2 others:) | 20:20 |
