@terdon - pacman doesnt use packages?

hmm. i always called em packages... dont remember any particular reason why though... what are they then?

@mikeserv More like the instructions to build a package as I understand it. I meant that they don't come in nicely tied up boxes like .debs or .rpms.

oh, ok. yeah.

@terdon - if youre still getting used to it - pacman -Qil and -Qo and -Ss are little introspections i tend to use a lot.

pacman -S --print-format %escapes is pretty cool, too.

@mikeserv Thanks, I'll look into those.

the -Qil might be most useful - it lists all the things about an installed package. Qo if given a file argument, will print the package owner. -Ss will search your repos for packages you dont have and return what you might install if you wanted.

thats all i got.

Yeah, -Ss I knew. The others I;ll need to play with.

Not now though, off to bed. Night all.

I heard about this memory leakage thing in kubuntu. Is this patched yet?

you're not going to get a good answer if that's all the information you can provide.

I honestly don't know much about it. I just got it mentioned to, so I went to chat to hope for efficient answers. Sorry if I'm not doing this right, I just started using Stack Exchange, so yeah.

am I doing this right?

you're fine

but "I heard this rumour about this super broad thing" isn't likely to get good answers ;)

I see

here's a quote from the guy (sorry if it isn't in correct format)

Kubuntu 14.04 has a memory leak issue with Xorg. After about 5 hours, Xorg will be using 3/4 of your RAM. – Zacharee1 20 mins ago

Oh Zach.

Lemme ask him.

Well I can't find anything about it @SpecialBomb and Zach doesn't remember which bug it was either.

He stopped using KDE.

That's a bummer, it's my favorite de

I'd say it is probably patched. Give it a shot and find out :)

Well, I'd have to install steam, and games, and drivers

I don't want to wait anymore ;_;

just took me like, 2 hours to install kde

Well, anyway, thanks for the help

np

@Gilles Thanks! I did originally end up going with the cron version, since I hadn't used it before, and editing rc.local wasn't working in Fedora, which I now know why :)

@SpecialBomb - 2 hours?!? wow! that's way faster than it used to be.

I'm doing nothing special here, but Chromium's memory usage continues to rise. Bad Browser! Bad!
