| Thedarkb | I think I broke my apt sources. | 00:04 |
|---|---|---|
| lubot | <VikingRedwolf> You edited /etc/apt/sources.list ? | 00:13 |
| Thedarkb | Yeah. | 00:13 |
| lubot | <VikingRedwolf> How do I restore the default repositories? - Ask Ubuntu | 00:14 |

| Thedarkb | Thanks. | 00:15 |

| Thedarkb | Huh? | 00:23 |
| Thedarkb | That paste might have been a bit big. | 00:23 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> Lubuntu 17.04 reached End of Life a week ago: https://lubuntu.me/zesty-eol/ | 00:23 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> (and it's np about the paste) | 00:23 |
| Thedarkb | Oh. | 00:24 |
| lubot | <VikingRedwolf> Yes, you need to upgrade | 00:24 |
| tsimonq2 | Worst case scenario, you can change everything to old-releases.ubuntu.com if you still need a Zesty archive for apt update etc. | 00:24 |
| Thedarkb | I'll go for an LTS this time. | 00:24 |
| tsimonq2 | (in sources.list) | 00:24 |
| tsimonq2 | Sure, but really there's no upgrade path... | 00:25 |
| tsimonq2 | 18.04 is still in development. | 00:25 |
| tsimonq2 | You could reinstall Lubuntu at 16.04 or upgrade to 17.10 and wait for 18.04 to come out. | 00:26 |
| Thedarkb | I'll do that then. | 00:26 |
| Thedarkb | I always thought versions were supported for a year for some reason. | 00:27 |
| tsimonq2 | Meh, that's just rounding up fron 9 months ;) | 00:27 |
| Thedarkb | two years * | 00:27 |
| tsimonq2 | Oh? | 00:28 |
| tsimonq2 | (I don't get you here) | 00:28 |
| Thedarkb | I'm just dumb. | 00:29 |
| Thedarkb | Anyway, I can't run dist-upgrade because my install is broken and I can't fix my install because the repos 404. | 00:29 |
| Thedarkb | Any ideas? | 00:30 |
| tsimonq2 | Well like I said before, the Zesty repo still exists | 00:30 |
| tsimonq2 | It's just at old-releases.ubuntu.com | 00:30 |
| tsimonq2 | So you just need to edit your sources.list with your favorite editor or sed to reflect that. | 00:30 |
| wxl | or use /etc/hosts to do it | 00:31 |
| Thedarkb | Oh, do-release-upgrade is a thing. | 00:31 |
| tsimonq2 | wxl: Right, although I think that's a bit more hacky. | 00:31 |
| tsimonq2 | Thedarkb: Right :) | 00:31 |
| Thedarkb | You have to download a total of 1,365 M. This download will take | 00:35 |
| Thedarkb | about 1 hour 43 minutes with your connection. | 00:35 |
| tsimonq2 | Nice | 00:36 |
| Thedarkb | Let me make sure the debian netinst going on in the other room is done first.. | 00:36 |
| Thedarkb | That it is. | 00:40 |
| Thedarkb | I assume I can continue using the computer for the time being? | 00:40 |
| Thedarkb | While it's downloading. | 00:41 |
| tsimonq2 | Yep | 00:43 |
| tsimonq2 | Although packages might change from out under you... | 00:43 |
| tsimonq2 | (shouldn't really affect usability, worst case scenario, restart the program) | 00:43 |
| Thedarkb | That won't be a problem. | 00:43 |
| Thedarkb | I'm just going to listen to a podcast and hopefully fall asleep while it does its thing overnight. | 00:44 |
| tsimonq2 | Alright, cool :) | 00:44 |

| Major_ | it happens after choosing the language and choosing to install | 15:55 |
| Major_ | ok fiexed it by awitichng from gui to terminal and back | 15:56 |
| cdeon | Hi, newbie here I have lubuntu 17.04 and am trying to update to lubuntu 17.10 but the software updater tells me there is an internet connection problem but I have internet | 17:07 |
| cdeon | And when I try to do sudo apt-get update I am getting all 404 repos | 17:08 |
| cdeon | Thanks in advance for the help | 17:08 |
| cdeon | I think my 17.04 lubuntu cannot reach the repos where the lubuntu 17.10 update is located | 17:09 |
| lubot | <VikingRedwolf> . | 18:18 |
| Thedarkb | I just upgraded to 17.10 and I'm delighted because my trackpoint works properly. | 18:18 |
| redwolf | cdeon, I think that's the EOL of Lubuntu Zesty | 18:18 |
| Thedarkb | Yeah, it's dead. | 18:19 |
| Thedarkb | I'm waiting for the LTS and I won't upgrade for a few years. | 18:19 |
| redwolf | it's better to upgrade | 18:19 |
| Thedarkb | Why? | 18:19 |
| redwolf | because of the reasonable advantages of having a recent system, with support and new drivers | 18:20 |
| redwolf | not only the LTS are good :) | 18:20 |
| Thedarkb | I don't need new drivers. | 18:20 |
| Thedarkb | All of my hardware is old. | 18:20 |
| Thedarkb | That's why I run Lubuntu. | 18:20 |
| redwolf | maybe an optimised core, updated software...? | 18:21 |
| redwolf | don't worry, Lubuntu is still not resource hungry | 18:21 |
| Thedarkb | LXPanel is getting bloated in my opinion. | 18:21 |
| Thedarkb | 34mb is a lot of ram for a taskbar to be using. | 18:21 |
| redwolf | how much ram do you have? | 18:22 |
| Thedarkb | 256mb | 18:22 |
| Thedarkb | I switched to fbpanel. | 18:23 |
| redwolf | that's a little, yes | 18:23 |
| cdeon | redwolf, yeah I know it is EOL but how can I upgrade to 17.10 from my 17.04 version? | 18:27 |
| cdeon | Becuase it looks like the 17.04 repo urls are dead and won't let me upgrade to 17.10 as instructed by the lubuntu blog youtube instructions | 18:28 |
| redwolf | try: sudo do-release-upgrade | 18:28 |
| redwolf | but there's a way to keep using old ones, but I can't recall how. tsimonq2 knows ;) | 18:29 |
| Thedarkb | Yeah, fbpanel uses 7.3mb RAM | 18:29 |
| cdeon | this is what I got from do-release-update -> Checking for a new Ubuntu release. No new release found. | 18:29 |
| Thedarkb | Maybe I'll release a remix called fubuntu or something. | 18:29 |
| redwolf | BUT our friend Chyken made this awesome video: | 18:29 |
| redwolf | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QhdQIzyscGw | 18:30 |
| cdeon | I followed that, but the software updater tells me internet connection (I have internet, actually chatting from the lubuntu right now) and through terminal I get a bunch of 404s | 18:30 |
| cdeon | sorry software updater tells me no internet connection* | 18:31 |
| redwolf | yes, when I had the same problem I had to use a USB and make a clean install | 18:32 |
| cdeon | okok, I see. Will do a clean install then. Here is the exact message from the software updater anyhow -> Failed to download repository information. Check your internet connection. | 18:33 |
| redwolf | yup, I got same in an laptop yesterday | 18:34 |
| cdeon | ok, thanks for your help redwolf! | 18:35 |
| redwolf | I'm sorry I can't help more | 18:35 |
| cdeon | no worries | 18:36 |
| krytarik | !eolupgrade | cdeon | 20:34 |
| ubottu | cdeon: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 20:34 |
