| <hads> If anyone happens to be using KDE on Edgy and is annoyed that most of the root filesystem is hidden by default, you can change it here: /etc/kubuntu-default-settings/hidden-root | |
| <Kamping_Kaiser> or the .hidden directoyr in root afaik | |
| <imbrandon> ello NZ'ers ( never mind me, just feeling silly and doing a drive-by "hello" ) | |
| <Kamping_Kaiser> lol | |
| <ajmitch> brandon... | |
| <brendonjt> afternoon all, who all about | |
| <ajmitch> hi | |
| <brendonjt> ajmitch, How it going these days | |
| <brendonjt> Do you know much about the debian builds | |
| <ajmitch> yes | |
| <ajmitch> depending on what you mean by 'debian builds' | |
| <brendonjt> ajmitch, like umm debian etch i have asked in a lug mailing list just wanting a different point of view | |
| <brendonjt> like when they update the build do they come down in apt-get or will it be a whole new install | |
| <ajmitch> you can upgrade from one debian release to another with apt-get, yes | |
| <brendonjt> using the same way ie : apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade | |
| <ajmitch> yes | |
| <brendonjt> ajmitch, thanks for that, it was weird installing debian, and then havingto install the gui but it was a learning curve and fun | |
| <Kamping_Kaiser> you could have done a desktop install | |
| <Kamping_Kaiser> debian minimal install=good++ | |
| <brendonjt> Kamping_Kaiser, so is that a thumbs up for me ? | |
| <Kamping_Kaiser> debian updates work just like ubuntu - new version, hit 'update' and it works | |
| <brendonjt> Kamping_Kaiser, Thank you for that, I have found this testing version of etch is good and nice and using gnome as well | |
| <Kamping_Kaiser> its cool eh. i was enjoying a full desktop in <1 gig ;) | |
| <brendonjt> And the one good thing is the Local Mirrors work which is good | |
| <Plug> ajmitch: flying to Dunedin at short notice costs too much | |
| <ajmitch> Plug: very true | |
| <ajmitch> why would you want to come down here? | |
| <Plug> funeral :( | |
| <ajmitch> ah, unfortunate | |
| <Plug> Wasn't planning on going, but thought I should investigate | |
