[00:55] <scientes> Lord-Kamina, generally you can just install it without rebuilding (building the linux kernel with all the modules takes a while)
[00:55] <scientes> Lord-Kamina, and linux have very good binary compatibility, so yes
[00:56] <scientes> oh, that was a long time ago
[01:55] <Lord-Kamina> scientes, thanks anyway. In the end it didn't really work out beh eh.
[02:49] <scientes> Lord-Kamina, why do you need a newer kernel?

[15:22] <tomreyn> how would i report a bug against the 18.04(.1) release notes? It should mention that Xorg logs may now go to ~/.local/share/xorg/ and under which circumstancers they will (not). i think some other processes - gdm, lightdm, sddm (i think?), maybe this is only with UMS, or with KMS, please clarify - which used to log to /var/log may also log to the users' home now. this would be quite relevant for people migrating / upgrading from 16.04.
[15:23] <tomreyn> x.org vs wayland may also matter for the log location, and if so, this should be discussed, too.
[15:27] <rbasak> tomreyn: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu-release-notes -> Report a bug
[15:27] <rbasak> tomreyn: though you might need to raise it with the desktop team to get it agreed/actioned
[15:28] <rbasak> tomreyn: but by all means file the bug, since that will give everyone a coordination point. Then ask #ubuntu-desktop and/or the ubuntu-desktop mailing list.
[15:29] <rbasak> (Since we can't put _every_ change in the release notes, we should probably defer to the desktop team to decide what should go in from the desktop side)
[15:33] <tomreyn> rbasak: how would i "raise it with the desktop team (to get it agreed/actioned)"?
[15:33] <tomreyn> oh, you said so
[15:33] <tomreyn> thanks#
[15:58] <tomreyn> this is bug 1786701
[16:18] <Lord-Kamina> scientes, it was mostly a futile effort really... I had backported some packages from bionic over to trusty and in the process hit some Breaks and was trying to get them to work, but hit a wall when I realized one of the things I needed to port required a newer linux-libc-dev
