[16:29] <acheronuk> genii: until meltdown messed things up, I was on 31 days on this PC
[16:30] <genii> acheronuk: Nice
[16:33] <genii> I generally do a dist-upgrade every weekend or every second weekend so the longest it normally gets would be around 13 days
[20:24] <jubo2> So what is the KDE Neon..?
[20:24] <jubo2> Is it a fork? .. of .. uhh .. Kubuntu?
[20:25] <genii> !neon
[20:25] <genii> Basically a rolling release
[20:26] <jubo2> oh. probably don't want that then
[20:27] <jubo2> Both use KDE Plasma as GUI?
[20:27] <genii> Yes

[20:58] <Ketchup_> Hey, I bought a new Lenovo E570 which came without OS. Trying to install 16.04 I realized there is a 1GB partition on the nvme SSD. It has a bootflag and is labeled 'freedos' which is strange because the laptop doesnt boot into freedos and only 4kb of the partition are used. Do you think it is safe to delete the partition?
[21:39] <valorie> Ketchup_: if you don't want to use freedos, why would you keep it?
[21:40] <valorie> is your plan to install 16.04 and then upgrade to 18.04 in a few months?
[21:51] <Ketchup_> valorie: Sorry if this question was a bit misplaced here. I want to install and keep using 16.04 for now. The installer warns me of other installed OS (I suppose this is because of the bootflag of the "freedos" partition?). Cant seem to boot into freedos so im wondering why the partition would be there. Im just confused and scared to break something.
[21:51] <Ketchup_> I realize you're not lenovo and cant tell me whats on the partition. Im just a bit confused. SOrry for bothering you
[21:53] <genii> Probably just a dummy partition with freedos on it for when on Windows machines a partition contains the files to boot up in rescue mode and re-install, etc
[21:54] <genii> So they can test if it boots from that partition when you hit the appropraite F-key
[22:30] <user|91066> hi from the netherlands
[22:32] <user|91066> i did a reinstall after backing up my home dir using rsync -a. copied the home dir back over and created a user with the same name as the home dir. when i try to log in as the user i get a black x
[22:32] <user|91066> do i need to do some permissions checking?
[22:37] <genii> user|91066: That's most likely the issue, yes
