@Fabby Now that you mention it, yes ... but the remembrance is deeply hidden in the "dusty part of my brain" :D :D :D Me myself, I've never used them ... :)

@WinEunuuchs2Unix Hello Rick ! :) Good morning to you ... I wish you a nice week (with as little trouble as possible) ... See you next time around.
Jun 15, 2019 15:52
@Fabby okay :)
Jun 15, 2019 15:51
Something new regarding job hunting @Fabby ? :)
Jun 15, 2019 15:50
@Fabby Fine (and busy), thank you ! :)
Jun 15, 2019 15:46

@Videonauth the whole thing about GNOME is : when you use it as it's intended by the devs it's absolutely brilliant ... once you tweak it too much, you make things worse
Mar 31, 2019 14:32
@Videonauth not the worst idea ... :)
Mar 31, 2019 14:30
@Videonauth if i hadn't had a system backup, I would have needed to reinstall the whole server
Mar 31, 2019 14:29
@Videonauth I have tested switching to the LXD snap on ubuntu server 188.04 ... what a mess
Mar 31, 2019 14:27
@Videonauth strange approach ... IMHO at least
Mar 31, 2019 14:27
no idea ...
Mar 31, 2019 14:26
@Videonauth what is that gnome-3.26 snap thing for ?
Mar 31, 2019 14:26
@Videonauth cool ! :)
Mar 31, 2019 14:23
great @Videonauth ! :)
Mar 31, 2019 14:15
@Videonauth phone call finished ... no, I didn't see it, but I assume your "famous" bootstrap method did the trick. :)
Mar 31, 2019 13:32
@Videonauth having a phone call atm ... :)
Mar 31, 2019 13:32
@Videonauth I'm okay so far ... :)
Mar 31, 2019 13:27
@Videonauth Hi Sir ! :)
Mar 31, 2019 13:26
@Fabby nevertheless ... too many things changed since 16.04 ... you should either install ubuntu budgie 18.04 or switch to a distro that ships with native GNOME - if you choose the second option, upgrade processes have a better chance to succeed without bringing along (hidden) issues. :)
Mar 30, 2019 15:28
@Fabby upgrade possible ? maybe ... easy ? don't think so ... recommended ? definitely not ! :)

@Pandya I'm using fedora 29 workstation with GNOME 3.30 on my main CLEVO based SCHENKER XMG production machine. :)
Mar 10, 2019 14:40
@Pandya yes :)
Mar 10, 2019 14:40
@Pandya And we have another old DELL machine from 2008 and that CPU also supports KVM -> ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/33917/…
Mar 10, 2019 14:37
@Pandya That's a thing ... we (still) have an old DELL Inspirion from the same year (2007) and that CPU supports KVM -> ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/29759/…
Mar 10, 2019 14:26
@Pandya How old is your machine ?
Mar 10, 2019 14:23
@Rinzwind Real shouldn't have let Cristiano go ... :D
Mar 10, 2019 14:21
@Parto You're welcome ! :)
Mar 10, 2019 14:18
@Parto Looks great ! :)
Mar 10, 2019 14:16

Mar 10, 2019 14:14
@Pandya You're welcome ! :) You must have a very old CPU ... :(
Mar 10, 2019 13:33
@Pandya what does kvm-ok give you ?
Mar 10, 2019 13:25
@dessert He ran the wrong command option ... he missed the "-" between enable and kvm :)
Mar 10, 2019 13:24
@dessert Good afternoon to you ! :)
Mar 10, 2019 13:23
@Fabby :)
Mar 10, 2019 13:22
@Fabby I wish you good luck ... sleep well :)
Mar 10, 2019 13:22
@Pandya it should be : -enable-kvm :)
Mar 10, 2019 13:20
@Fabby okay that's better :)
Mar 10, 2019 13:20

Mar 10, 2019 13:15

Mar 10, 2019 13:14

Mar 10, 2019 13:14

@Pilot6 "If SE doesn't need my effort, I won't spend my time on it. As simple as that." ... once a wise man called terdon said something like : "Don't make announcements - just do it, or don't !" :)

Accidentally came across this post ... I fully do understand you, Dmitry ! Wondering when the time will come that SE generally overthinks the way how they treat valuable veterans. Not sure, but I think I recall a similar situation where Zanna was banned and terdon immediately stepped in and revoked the ban. What about doing the same here, Byte ? @Pilot6 is one of those members who continually improve the (content of the) site drastically throughout years !
