[00:15] <smallfoot-> trism, I use Quantal (upgraded from Precise), when I type 'python --version', it says 2.7.3
[00:15] <trism> smallfoot-: yes, that is the version of python2.7, what is the problem?
[00:16] <smallfoot-> i thought they removed python 2?
[00:16] <smallfoot-> and is ONLY gonna have python 3 installed?
[00:16] <smallfoot-> and that /usr/bin/python will be version 3
[00:17] <trism> smallfoot-: python2.7 will still be in the repos, python3 is python3.2
[00:17] <trism> smallfoot-: I think the plan is only python3 on the iso though
[00:17] <smallfoot-> oh
[00:17] <Daekdroom> Yeah, and that means they'll focus on making the transition for what's in the ISO.
[00:17] <smallfoot-> wont they make /usr/bin/python be py3?
[00:18] <smallfoot-> and let /usr/bin/python2 be py2?
[00:22] <smallfoot-> do i need the package 'linux-firmware' installed?
[00:22] <Daekdroom> Possible.
[00:23] <Daekdroom> Why remove it?
[00:23] <smallfoot-> oh, it depends on 'linux-generic'
[00:23] <smallfoot-> so i guess i neeed it
[00:23] <smallfoot-> because i dont want binary blobs on my systme

[13:18] <Chromeboy> Hi guys, I'm looking to upgrade my 12.04 to 12.10, what's the best way to go about this for a machine inside virtual box?
[13:29] <FernandoMiguel> Chromeboy: the usual way: update-manager -d
[13:29] <FernandoMiguel> or cli way: do-release-upgrade
[13:30] <FernandoMiguel> !upgrade | Chromeboy
[13:30] <ubottu> Chromeboy: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade
[13:30] <Chromeboy> I tried both of those routes but I kept getting a return that there were no updates
[13:31] <Chromeboy> ubottu: thanks for the links
[13:31] <ubottu> Chromeboy: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)
[13:36] <FernandoMiguel> Chromeboy: lsb_release -a says what?
[13:38] <Chromeboy> FernandoMiguel: 12.10 - I feel like such a tool, sorry for wasting your time, but thanks for the help.
[13:38] <FernandoMiguel> :D
[13:38] <FernandoMiguel> welcome to +1
[13:38] <FernandoMiguel> do a reboot and make sure everything is working
[13:38] <Chromeboy> FernandoMiguel: I was looking at System Settings - Details
[13:39] <FernandoMiguel> at least for me, current kernel is failing to resume from suspend.. need to debug that and file a bug
[13:39] <Chromeboy> thanks for the welcome :)
[13:39] <Chromeboy> yeah, at least now I know not to trust the details pane
[13:39] <Chromeboy> still says 12.04
[13:44] <FernandoMiguel> or wallpapers or logins info
