[03:16] <ignignok> hello
[03:17] <ignignok> anyone here help with partitioning disk for a dual install?
[03:18] <alkisg> Hi, what help?
[03:20] <ignignok> i've never done it and only know a little about partitioning tbh
[03:21] <ignignok> i was expecting a guided install like other distros but this doesn't seem to have one
[03:23] <alkisg> Kubuntu does have a guided install. What options do you get?
[03:24] <ignignok> hold on
[03:25] <ignignok> is use entire disk and setup lvm what i want?
[03:26] <ignignok> i have solus installed and did lvm and full disk install and i want kubuntu with it
[03:26] <alkisg> Ah ok that's the problem then
[03:27] <ignignok> what is?
[03:27] <alkisg> You didn't leave space for other installations
[03:28] <ignignok> so i reinstall solus and partition there?
[03:29] <ignignok> or i guess do it now with kubuntu, i don't mind wiping the disk
[03:29] <alkisg> If you don't have much experience with partitioning etc, I would suggest a simpler setup
[03:29] <alkisg> I.e. without LVM
[03:30] <alkisg> Then the "other installer" will be able to resize the partition and make space for dual installations much more easily
[03:30] <ignignok> ok, i just read the instructions on the solus install said lvm made it easier
[03:30] <ignignok> cool, thank you
[03:31] <alkisg> LVM supports live resizing and some other cool stuff, but you need to know terminal commands to do that, for example https://www.rootusers.com/lvm-resize-how-to-decrease-an-lvm-partition/
[03:31] <alkisg> Unfortunately the installers aren't yet smart enough to cooperate on lvm with other installations, afaik
[03:32] <ignignok> nothing is smart anymore
[03:32] <ignignok> any difference if i install kubuntu or solus first that you know of?
[03:33] <alkisg> I don't think so, both should be able to work fine with non-lvm setups
[03:33] <ignignok> ok, here we go again. thanks for your help
[03:34] <ignignok> go suns
[06:04] <lordievader> Good morning
 Hello, can anyone give some explanation over this if they can understand the code? The updated file seems to be the ubuntukloopnew.zip from it but I am unsure how to proceed with it.
 https://forum.ubuntu.org.cn/viewtopic.php?f=159&t=461537
 If possible I'd like to reproduce these steps for a different distro, idk where else to ask and am fairly new at Linux. Any help is appreciated
 How to switch from windows kubuntu without losing data
 Without losing data it's very important
 My  already have a flashed usb
 From windows to kubuntu only without losing data is not possible. Backup you important data from Windows onto a external hard drive first. (re @ADHIVP: How to switch from windows kubuntu without losing data)
 No other way
[13:15] <mparillo> How many physical drives do you have?
 C and E (re @IrcsomeBot: <mparillo> How many physical drives do you have?)
 why didn't you say so from the start....
 C that have windows installed
 E have 25 GB
 And C have  438 GB with data and windows installed
 Well you can move the data from E to C and then delete the E partition using Windows so that it would become unallocated.
 If there is any empty space on C, you could unallocate some of it because I've heard at least 40 GB is recommended for Linux, although it's your choice.
 Then install Kubuntu on the unallocated space. (re @ADHIVP: E have 25 GB)
 Oh kk
 Can you guide me setup process
 And then after the installation delete Windows, Program files, and other folders
 And I don't understand why you put your data in your OS drive
 Process of deleting drive E or
 Proccess of installing Kubuntu? (re @ADHIVP: Can you guide me setup process)
 No
 Linux swap efi like that
 It's for a friend not me (re @Flooding: And I don't understand why you put your data in your OS drive)
 I don't recall the exact steps, It would guide you at the installation, if necessary.
 You don't have to do anything in regards to SWAP, imo.
 I remember while installing, it asked me to create a FAT32 500 MB partition and label it as EFI, but your case might be different. (re @ADHIVP: Linux swap efi like that)
 Ok
 I will check in youtube
 Any way thanks
 +
 If you do the unallocatction process inside Windows before installing, the rest of installation will be easy and the chance of losing data will be minimum. (re @ADHIVP: I will check in youtube)
 Ok
 It was 12pm in my country😂😂 (re @IrcsomeBot: <lordievader> Good morning)
[16:34] <user|75> Hi, can Kubuntu run from a usb stick and also persistent?
 you should be able to afaik
 they are already gone (re @ri5h46h: you should be able to afaik)
 exactly, i always forget to recognise that i replied to a message from irc. 😂😅
 When you use Kubuntu on live mode, if you do something like apt-get update/upgrade, will it be saved on the USB for future usages?
 I mean if you do a apt-get update/upgrade while in live mode, and then install Kubuntu, will that update/upgrade you did be applied?
[17:11] <genii> no
 So everything you do while in live mode, gets saved in RAM or in the USB (as temp files)?
[17:13] <genii> Any packages you install or updates you apply while running from the live version are in the ramdisk of the live running version
 Is there a way to make it permanent?
 So that you have a portable OS on your USB which is customized by your needs.
[17:15] <genii> When you run the installer it installs a fresh system onto whichever disk or other media you selected, it does not care what updates or packages were installed into the live one
[17:15] <genii> !persistent
[17:15] <genii> The bot's last link there is about how to make changes on a USB stay persistent
 Nice, it comes in handy. (re @IrcsomeBot: <ubottu> For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent)
 How do I install Conky Manager on 20.04 LTS?
 Didn't find a working tutorial...
[17:49] <oerheks> really? 1st hit when i google ubuntu Conky Manager ...
[17:49] <oerheks> BTW  it takes a funny ppa, use at your own risk https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2020/07/install-conky-manager-ubuntu-20-04-lts/
[17:50] <oerheks> ..oh indeed,  that ppa is down
[17:53] <oerheks> ppa:teejee2008/ppa also skipped conky manager .. so, build it from git, 4 year old project https://github.com/teejee2008/conky-manager
[17:54] <oerheks> https://launchpad.net/~tomtomtom/+archive/ubuntu/conky-manager might be an answer, I hove no clue about this ppa
[17:54] <oerheks> good luck!
[17:57] <oerheks> i would write my own, 2348 pages with examples, longest tread on the forum https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=281865&page=2348
 As the group is full of programmers
 Can anyone tell me the best cloud storage for storing all our project
 file file_45767.MP4 too big to download (7388733 > allowed size: 1000000)

 @RikMills i don't think that video does belong here ^
