[00:46] <maxolase1squad> AdamOutler, did upgrading to 18.04 give you problems?
 what kind of problems?
[01:20] <maxolase1squad> The packages are completely broken. 
[01:21] <maxolase1squad> Sorry, I tried upgrading my work laptop and it died very early in the process. With some finagling I can get into a root shell but I can't do anything with apt.
[01:22] <maxolase1squad> I'm curious if AdamOutler experienced the same thing.
[01:22] <maxolase1squad> I'm currently backing everything up so I can do a fresh install. It's been forever since I've had issues this bad upgrading an Ubuntu machine.
 I got impatient with updates last night on my laptop, I'm now waking up to kernel panics lol
 So installing the base system, regenerating fstab + initramfs
 then reboot and try again
 apparmor was incorrectly configured for bind9 dns server.  I had to grant permissions to bind for /var/log**
 Fixed -- kept forgetting to mount /EFI to >> /boot when rebuilding initramfs - went ahead and redid systemd as well since it was complaining about /init
 Atleast I hope it's mostly fixed -- booted into X just now
 with net connectivity
 Protip - don't do mass upgrades while impatient w/ no sleep. You tend to say screw it and force dependency hangups
 @AdamOutler - Did you want to meetup somewhere to get that Google WiFi today?
 @KMyers we good with the router deal?
 @Ivoriesablaze, I am sure we can be
 cava + cool retro term = not performance friendly, but looks nice
 So I just upgraded to 18.04
 I'm using pop os version
 On a Sys76 box?
 yea
 What does popOS do differently?
 I did a clean install. backed up my laptop and started fresh. I've always prefered clean install
 Honestly, i just like their take on the theme and interface layout
 that's about it. that i know of
 maybe @ahoneybun can tell you more.
 but i've been using system76 hardware for a while now. even before they had pop os
 oh - it's Gnome3 + Sys theme / mods?
 this is actually my second s76 laptop
 If my XPS ever bites the dust, I'll probably order one.
 yea. gnome 3 with themes
 And after the kernel panics this morning, I contemplated installing 18.05
 er.. 18.04 lol
 Because LTS these days is sounding better and better. Don't have the time to tshoot silly mistakes anymore
 exactly
 i'm sticking on 18.04 now
 i switched to vmware workstation pro for all my virtualization testing though from virtualbox.
 bspwm in the 1804 repos by chance?
 vmware workstation was my bane on a rolling distro
 each kernel update required fixes to vmware workstation
 vbox and dkms headers are feeling similar - although it supposed to resolve that issue exactly
 yea i do hate that about workstation
 I'll probably get back into VMing it up pretty hard in the near future after this exam
 I mostly use it for testing stuff
 I'll def be looking for a dif provider for my VMs
 well, hypervisor **
 That's what I use it for.
 if i want to play with a virus or something in kali i don't care about getting full resource access too
 Labs/testing - but it's all personal / cert related
 what cert you looking to study for?
 I should have my CCNA done again here in the next 1.5 weeks
 then it's straight on to NP and if I can swing it, RHCSA
 figure I'll let the LFCS expire for now
 very nice
 a few guys i work with have red hat certs
 All of our stuff at work is centos/forks + rhel
 i need to get my vcp soon. i took it recently but failed.
 so figure it'd be good to get back into the redhat ecosystem
 i needed a 300 and got a 251
 oo
 got killed on storage questions
 close
 A little worried about my own exam - have had no time to study for it but scheduled it anyway
 i don't fully study so not too bad
 ^
 I took the course for VCP - but never the exam
 That was like -- ~6-7 yrs back
 No, 8. I forgot I'm old now
 aren't we all
 With the clean install of Pop 18.04 you also have a recovery partition in case something breaks and you don't have a live disk to fix it.
 We also moved to systemd-boot from grub this release.
 Where I'm working from today.
 I think my next lappie will be a Sys76 - because I'm lazy these days.
 They offer anything on the 13" side?
 Galago Pro. Thought the Lemur is getting a refresh with it's 14 in size.
 I have the Lemur and love it
 and now it has a quad core version
 i messed up abd bought it when it was only dual core
 @KMyers not today.
 What time do you get off work?
 @AdamOutler, Normally between 5 and 6 ish.
 About the same for me.  Sometimes a bit earlier.
 You want to try to meet up tomorrow after work?
 quick exchange.
 unless you want to drive out to Pines tonight.
 @AdamOutler, I can. Just ping me in the afternoon.
 Ok.
 galaga pro looks nice
 The bezels are real tho
 Might opt for the larger laptops in that case. A GPU wouldn't be bad either
[22:43] <floridagram-bot> JavadOmidiBot was added by: Feri Golin
 Anyone had any luck with SYnergy2?
 @Abrerr, I have not used it in years. Have not had much of a need to
 @KMyers, Ohhhh - how do you manage your machines locally?
 I moved most of my machines to a colo. I have 3 displays connected to my main machine at my desk
 colo -- KVM Switch? Or telco-like colo?
 Telco like Colo
 In fact, my primary computer right now has been a Chromebook
 You're only using the 1 KB/M for the pair of machines I see @ the desk, right?
 I can understand the rest of they're hosted elsewhere, I imagine some multiplexer + SSH would work well there
 Yes, they are connected to my Chromebook
 @Abrerr, For some things yes... But ChromeOS is about to get very interesting
 So Chromebook + larger monitors are all physically connected via HDMI/DisplayPort/we. But the mini-top you have, does that work with your KB/M?
 I forget the name of that thing, but I'm jelly
 https://kmyers.me/blog/chromeos/getting-started-with-chromeos-containers-via-project-crostini/
 @Abrerr, Here is my exact setup - https://kmyers.me/blog/computers/the-ultimate-chromebook-pixelbook-desk-setup/
 Lordy, you're chromebooking it all.
 right on
 Note - my setup is operating system agnostic. I can connect a Chromebook, Ubuntu, Debian, Windows or even MacOS device and it will just work
 I just need to plug in a single USB cable
 I feel like I need a physical tour
 rofl
 That's cool though
 Pixelbook was on my list there for a while - but not for use like you're doing.
 @Abrerr, It is really an amazing machine. I regret not getting the 500 GB version
