| Perdellian | genii: ah. did not know that | 00:02 |
|---|---|---|
| Perdellian | genii: and dd apparently has a status=progress setting of which I also was not aware | 00:02 |
| genii | No more piping it through pv ! ;) | 00:02 |
| valorie | I usually just use the built-in usb writer | 00:03 |
| valorie | occasionally doesn't work, but almost always does | 00:04 |
| Perdellian | valorie: built-in usb writer? | 00:04 |
| valorie | Startup Disk Creator | 00:04 |
| valorie | huh, no longer builtin | 00:05 |
| * Perdellian is trying to get an archlinux iso written in a bootable way so that she can get a second opinion on whether her LUKS/lvm setup is really hosed and toast | 00:05 | |
| valorie | well, I used it at SeaGL last weekend successfully | 00:05 |
| Perdellian | I think valorie may have already seen me decrying my woes | 00:06 |
| valorie | https://twitter.com/valoriez/status/1061394054070468608 | 00:06 |
| valorie | :-) | 00:06 |
| Perdellian | or maybe that was someone else | 00:06 |
| valorie | although we ended up having to burn a DVD because that little eeepc wouldn't start from USB | 00:06 |
| Perdellian | my thinkpad won't boot directly from SD, so I have to use a USB adapter | 00:07 |
| Perdellian | and by dog, I hope the kubuntu installer didn't nuke my setup before I even hit the install button | 00:07 |
| valorie | it didn't have a drive, so we used my usb cd/dvd drive to install crunchbang++ to it | 00:08 |
| valorie | hard to find 32-bit images that are still supported | 00:08 |
| Perdellian | I miss my little old AOD250 sometimes | 00:08 |
| valorie | of course, hard to find 32-bit computers still being used! | 00:08 |
| valorie | that lappy was pretty sweet | 00:09 |
| Perdellian | underpowered, like all atom-based stuff, but a wonderful little form factor | 00:09 |
| valorie | everyone I know who had an eeepc loved 'em | 00:09 |
| Perdellian | the Aspire One D250 was my netbook. good little linux device. great for taking notes, and the recessed touchpad made it actually non-painful to use (although chord click was difficult due to the center-hinged mouse buttons, but oh well) | 00:10 |
| Perdellian | valorie: so does this utility take the place of unetbootin? | 00:12 |
| valorie | I've only used unetbootin once | 00:13 |
| valorie | found it very clunky | 00:13 |
| Perdellian | 'cause I wasn't seeing unetbootin in the repos | 00:13 |
| valorie | that isn't to say that startup disk creator isn't clunky too | 00:13 |
| valorie | but I'm used to it | 00:13 |
| Perdellian | a simple dd *should* suffice, but, well, the image ain't booting | 00:14 |
| valorie | I've used dd as well | 00:14 |
| valorie | slow but almost always works | 00:14 |
| valorie | have you checked the image? | 00:14 |
| valorie | this is why I seed all the *buntu ISOs | 00:14 |
| valorie | because ktorrent always checks them when they finish downloading | 00:15 |
| Perdellian | torrented | 00:16 |
| Perdellian | then again, I am transferring it over wifi via samba | 00:16 |
| valorie | that shouldn't make a diff, but..... | 00:16 |
| valorie | !md5 | 00:16 |
| ubottu | To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 00:16 |
| genii | Perdellian: I have a D260, great little machines | 00:17 |
| valorie | never hurts to check | 00:17 |
| genii | ( I'm actually running Lubuntu-Next on that one right now) | 00:18 |
| valorie | the 18.04 lub-next? | 00:19 |
| genii | Yep | 00:19 |
| valorie | working well for you? | 00:19 |
| genii | Yes, excellent in fact | 00:19 |
| genii | ..I do have ram maxed to 2G and a 60G SSD in it too | 00:19 |
| valorie | good work simon and walter! | 00:20 |
| genii | :D | 00:20 |
| Perdellian | crap. startup disk creator isn't even letting me select my iso | 00:21 |
| valorie | it will | 00:22 |
| valorie | the UX is awful, but it will | 00:22 |
| valorie | just ignore the little window and infront and do it | 00:22 |
| valorie | click the Other button if you can't | 00:24 |
| valorie | as long as your usb shows up you'll be successfull | 00:25 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Anarchotaoist> @valorie, Etcher the few times I have used has worked well! | 01:06 |
| Perdellian | so a question | 01:20 |
| Perdellian | how well does the kubuntu installer play with dual-boot of Win10 while doing full encryption of the Linux side? | 01:20 |
| Perdellian | like /dev/sda1 = Windows, /dev/sda2 = /boot, /dev/sda3 = extended, /dev/sda5 = luks-encrypted LVM with swap, /, and /home | 01:21 |
| aiena | I need some help with ldd. It's picking up the right GL lib for .so.1 but not for .so . Here is the command line dump with question in detail. https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/KRqpt6nHBf/ Can someone please help me fix order. I am on Kubuntu 17.10 | 01:51 |
| genii | !17.10 | 02:10 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 17.10 (Artful Aardvark) was the 27th release of Ubuntu. Support ended on July 19th, 2018. See !eol and https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-security-announce/2018-July/004483.html | 02:10 |

| denza242 | how do i fix the bcd stuff | 02:46 |
| denza242 | win10 installed first then ubuntu | 02:46 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Faszinosium42> Is there a way to change the Linux distro (to Kubuntu 18.04) without backup and reinstall all my programs ? | 02:48 |
| denza242 | hmm | 03:56 |
| denza242 | somehow i accessed the kubuntu partition | 03:56 |
| denza242 | now how do i make that the default | 03:56 |
| denza242 | nvm | 05:03 |
| denza242 | boot-repair saved me | 05:03 |
| denza242 | ...hopefully without bricking my win10 partition | 05:03 |
| denza242 | now my question is how do i share a folder between my two computers | 05:05 |
| valorie | denza242: thumb key? | 06:36 |
| valorie | @Faszinosium42 you can just install kubuntu-desktop | 06:37 |

| denza242 | can i change the partition size of my linux install to be smaller and increase my windows partition post-install without my system getting bricked | 21:02 |
| bprompt | denza242: as in, move the Linux partition beginning a little bit over to the right, and have the windows use that slack? I don't think so, there are partition tools that claim to do the data moving safely, but I'm very doubtful | 21:06 |
| denza242 | ah ok | 21:06 |
| denza242 | well i guess i get to test out Proton then :3 | 21:07 |
| Alexfrench | i thought if you had spare space on the left or on the right | 21:07 |
| Alexfrench | it is possible to stretch or expand one partition no ? | 21:08 |
| bprompt | Alexfrench: sure you can, so long there's space, now if there was data in that space..... then you would want it moved first, or it'll get overwritten | 21:09 |
| Alexfrench | obviously yes i agree | 21:10 |
| bprompt | Alexfrench: I mean, in the aforementioned, the windows partition can expand just fine, is just that the linux partition might get the ax in the process, the assumption being that the slack is being used up by the beginning of the linux partition | 21:13 |
| Alexfrench | ah ok | 21:17 |
| juacom99 | hi, one quick question, i'm adding a PPA and when i make 404 Not Found [IP: 91.189.95.83 80]. I try with 2 diferent PPA with the same result. i know that removing the PPA will solve the problme but i want to install some packages from theme | 21:20 |
| juacom99 | i'm on Kubuntu 18.04 by the way | 21:21 |
| Alexfrench | mz too | 21:28 |
| Alexfrench | me | 21:28 |
| denza242 | can I completely remove the swapfile on my system | 22:36 |
| denza242 | without anything too bad happening | 22:36 |
| denza242 | i realized that swapfiles are probably bad for my ssd | 22:37 |
