PriceChildtwb, we are far from RC stage00:26
PriceChildtwb, we just reached alpha300:26
PriceChildtwb, cdimages.ubuntu.com/releases/hardy should do it00:26
twbThanks.00:27
twb(I'm doing a site rollout that will take months, so the plan is to end up deploying hardy, because it's LTS.  I want to start finding bugs  sooner rather than later.)00:28
twbNone of the CDs are live CDs *without* X, right?00:29
twbThat is, the server and alternate CDs use d-i?00:29
twb(Since they have jigdo files I'm guessing that's still the case.)00:33

dewdudecan i force update manager to use a cd-rom source? i've got hardy on CD but can't seem to get gutsy to upgrade from it02:31
Picidewdude: You can only upgrade from Alternate CDs.02:33
dewdudethis is an alternate CD.02:33
dewdudei did get the window once....and i started going through it, but then it wanted to update from web, and, after seeing the download size, i didn't feel like really waiting..so i aborted the process and i haven't been able to get the upgrade option back when i inserted the CD02:34
PiciSystem>Admininstration>Software Sources should let you add a repo from a CD02:34
dewdudeok, so i just need to add the repo and it'll upgrade for me?02:35
dewdude"To install from a CD/DVD, insert the medium in to the drive"02:36
dewdudeand the disc is in there...all it does wehn i insert it is bring up file browser.02:36
dewdudeoh, nevermind, i see the add cd-rom button02:37
dewdudenope....still not what i want.02:40
UnNaturalHighdewdude, you don't have internet access?02:40
dewdudeit's slow.02:40
dewdudereally freakin slow.02:40
dewdudeand the chance of getting anything faster is zilch to nada.02:40
UnNaturalHighdewdude, I hope this is a test system you are installing on and not some production system02:40
dewdudeif by production you mean something vital02:41
dewdudewhich...this isn't.02:41
dewdudejust a laptop i play around with stuff on.02:41
UnNaturalHighjust wipe you hard disk and install fresh onto it then02:41
UnNaturalHigh*your02:41
dewdudeyeah..that was my thought02:41
UnNaturalHighdewdude, do you still reside on dialup?02:42
dewdudeno.02:42
dewdudeDSL.02:42
dewdude768/12802:42
UnNaturalHighthats not slow, lol02:42
dewdudeyes it is.02:42
UnNaturalHighjust let it upgrade over night02:42
dewdudewhen everyone else around you has 10mbit from comcast it is.02:42
dewdudewell02:43
dewdudethat would be pointless.02:43
dewdudei have a CD02:43
dewdudewhy redownload data i already have?02:43
dewdudei'll just wipe the drive and fresh format.02:44
dewdudei could of probably done that by now rather than figuring out how to get that nice upgrade window back02:44

MGrundeIs there a workaround for the apparmor error with Alpha 2/3?03:35
articpenguin3800when are the most updates issued at night or day?04:03
RAOFNeither.04:04
RAOFThe publisher runs every 15 minutes, if I remember correctly.04:04
crdlbparticularly since that varies for each of the developers :)04:04
RAOFAnd since there are devs all over the world, there's usually a pretty steady supply of updates.04:04
articpenguin3800i was up all night last night fixing my hardy breakage04:05
DarkMageZ(gnome) if i've got an application up. then i unminimize one from the tray. the first application is on top with focus. how do i change this so the unminimized app is on top with focus?04:13
DanaGwtf?  The shortcut "<Shift><Control><Alt><Super>space" cannot be used because it will become unusable to type using this key.  Please try with a key such as Control, Alt or Shift at the same time.04:16
DanaGI started with super-space, and went all the way to that.04:16
DanaGWorks fine if I set it with gconf-editor.04:17
DanaGAnd now I'll stop accidentally hitting alt-f4 instead of alt-f3.04:17
crdlbwhere were you trying to set that?04:18
DanaGIn deskbar-applet.04:18
hydrogenDanaG: well, you know.. its fairly common for people to hold down all those keys at once04:18
DanaGI'm using the old version that's actually still a deskBAR.04:18
hydrogenI know I do it every time I type04:18
DanaGHow about super-space?04:18
hydrogenwell, if i hit ctrl+alt+shift+super+space, I'm obviously htting super+space04:20
hydrogenThankfully gnomes wonderful usabilty intervenes and makes sure you can still type04:20
DanaGI mean, it would not allow that shortcut.04:21
DanaGWhen I set it manually, it works perfectly fine.04:21
hydrogenI don't think you are allowed to complain about bugs when you intentionally use old versions of software04:24
hydrogenI'm pretty sure thats a rule04:24
DanaGWell, the new version of deskbar is 'unfit for purpose', in my mind.04:34
DanaGDon't worry, I won't try to file a bug on the old version.04:34
HelvascaI just started dling Alpha 3 :)04:59
m1keCan you upgrade a 32bit to 64bit 7.10+ without reformating?05:43
hydrogenno05:44
m1kewhy not?05:46
RAOFBecause all the packages are different.05:48
RAOFTechnically you might be able to do it... you'd need to do it in a couple of stages.  1{ install a 64bit kernel, and reboot. 2) use your existing 32bit system to run apt to remove & reinstall all the packages, making sure not to remove any package that the 32bit apt needs before it's finished.05:50
m1keProblem is, I want to upgrade to 64bit, but I dont want to nuke all my Vmserver stuff05:50
RAOFWell...05:51
RAOFThat's kinda difficult.  You could back it up, then restore it on the other end.05:51
RAOFBut basically, you need to install the 64bit distro.  You can't upgrade.05:52

Oli``I get pink outlines around menus and tooltips. Is this a known issue?12:00
DarkMageZOli``, issues are tracked on the bugtracker. i suspect your graphics card sucks ? see if turning off compiz helps.12:02
Oli``DarkMageZ: It's a nvidia 8800 gts... last time I checked, they didn't suck =) But I'll give it a try...12:03
Oli``DarkMageZ: I should add this is new to Hardy12:03
DarkMageZi remember seeing a similar effect on my i810. so i made a presumption. the nvidia 8800 gts is a nice card.12:04
Oli``Well that's odd. Disabling Compiz fixes the issue completely - even after I re-enable Compiz12:04
DarkMageZit might only happen at startup.12:06
DarkMageZor when some random driver bug gets triggered.12:06
DarkMageZi doubt your card is running out of video ram12:06
Oli``I blame the nvidia driver... this latest one is full of nasty little bugs12:07
DarkMageZhehe, don't worry. us ATi users are getting screwed over equally hard. our new drivers sound equally dodgy.12:11

Hobbseeoh, interesting, it really must not get auto-created now13:11
HobbseeWorkingOnWise: it means you don't have an xorg.conf anymore, so it's having trouble.13:11
nanonymeHobbsee, now/for now, whichever13:12
WorkingOnWiseit is a frsh installl. SO it didnt make one during setup?13:13
nanonymeapparently not13:14

WorkingOnWisenanonyme: sounds like a big bug to me...I'll have to go report it.13:14
nanonymesounds like something temporarily disabled to me13:15
nanonymebut go report if you feel like it13:15
WorkingOnWisewhatever it is, the installer did it. Once I booted into it, I had to install restricted driver manager. the first time I ran it I got the error.13:16
* nanonyme shrugs13:16
nanonymei've been told to expect hardy to be broken so i do13:17
Gninenvidia works fine on hardy13:17
nanonymeGnine, hmm, is the xorg.conf generation linked to adapter being detected properly then?13:19
Hobbseer-m just need to be able to cope with the new xorg.13:19
nanonymehmm13:20
WorkingOnWisei ran sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and then r-m is working fine...i think. Shouldn't the Nvidia GeForce Go 6100 use nvidia-glx-new, not nvidia-glx?13:24
Gninei do not know. but i do know that it has not had any issues13:24
Gninefeisty gave me incredible problems on xserver configuration but after gutsy i have not seen anything go wrong in that respect13:25
nanonymehmm, does hardy have the new xorg?13:25
WorkingOnWiseGnine: I have ben breaking...um, er, running Hardy for a while now, but haven seen this problem. Once its all set up, Its great, as long as I dont do some profoundly n00bish thing to break it! :_13:25

Gumbymany times19:56
PiciReally? I'm surprised.19:56
