BluesKajHowdy folks12:40
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> Hi!12:41
BluesKajhi Phil Linux12:41
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> I am happily using my Kubuntu 18.04.1 on two machines and will upgrade a Win7 machine of a friend later today!12:42
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> upgrade to Kubuntu 18.04.1 that is!12:43
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> Which program/way would you use to get a bare metal install of Win7 into a vm?12:44
BluesKajPhil Linux is you friend familiar with linux?12:46
BluesKajyour12:46
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> He was using Ubuntu Mate 18.10 for a while. When support ended I talked to him about the choice of going to Ubuntu Mate 18.04 or Kubuntu 18.04.12:47
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> Kubuntu is easier to support for me because I use it myself.12:47
BluesKajPhil Linux, 18.10 ? that's a dev OS12:48
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> He is not a technical person at all, so figuring things out himself (and getting confused by the plethora of options) wont happen enyway.12:49
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> @BluesKaj, I meaned 17.10. sorry. 😉12:49

IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> @Anarcho Taoist, Nice!12:49
IrcsomeBot<Anarcho Taoist> @Phil Linux, I am thinking as a print for a laptop sleeve.12:50
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> go for it!12:50
BluesKajnot a VM user , I'm bare metal all the way, even if I have to dual boot, but I guess kvm and qemu are worth looking at12:53
IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> @BluesKaj, thx!12:54

IrcsomeBot<Phil Linux> very nice indeed!13:16
jubo2y0, got a question. I got this one laptop that has only 4GB RAM and it is usable with Kubuntu 16.04 .. Should we expect it to stay usable if I upgrade it to 18.04 ?17:17
jubo2just need to keep the amount of tabs small and not run many programs simultaneously17:17
mparillo_For light browsing, office apps, watching video, 4GB of RAM is more than enough for me. Big compiles, video editing, gaming, running distros in a VM? No.17:25
jubo2ok. thanks for info mparillo_17:48
jubo2I got 16GB on my own machine17:48
jubo2it rarely fills up even with heavy use17:48
jubo2the 4GB machine I gave to my friend17:48
