| willgreg | hello all | 09:56 |
| willgreg | hello jouston | 10:06 |
| jouston | willgreg: Hi | 10:08 |
| jouston | willgreg: Anything I can help you here sir? | 10:08 |
| willgreg | Well, I´m trying to isolate a bug on my Ubuntu Install | 10:09 |
| willgreg | The problem occurs after openning and closing multiples windows and tabs in Nautilus, Firefox, and Opera; The Desktop seems to partially crash | 10:20 |
| willgreg | The crash isn complete, mouse still works, but all attempts to launch new software fail | 10:22 |
| willgreg | I was hoping for advice on how to install 2 or 3 completely seperate ubuntu partitions to isolate the configuration/software that causes this problem | 10:23 |
| willgreg | Does anyone know how to set up extra Ubuntu installs on the same PC? | 10:32 |
| ara | willgreg: if you use the desktop cds, it will set up extra space for you automatically. just choose "Guided - use empty space" when asked during the installation | 10:35 |
| ara | willgreg: it is not a bad idea to save important data before the process, though | 10:36 |
| willgreg | ara: I have tried the install disc, It may have worked, but it didn´t update Grub correctly... | 10:44 |
| davmor2 | willgreg: Did you do an autoresize? | 10:45 |
| ara | willgreg: which option did you use? | 10:45 |
| ara | willgreg: when rebooting, which system starts? the new one or the old one? | 10:46 |
| willgreg | I have an extra hard-drive, I manually added a partition. When the install completed and rebooted, there was no option for the new install... | 10:47 |
| davmor2 | willgreg: I think there is currently an issue with grub and second partitions. You can get around it though by simply going into /boot/grub/menu.lst | 10:49 |
| davmor2 | in the install that works | 10:49 |
| davmor2 | and mod it. | 10:50 |
| davmor2 | the other thing is you may of installed grub for the second install on the second hd | 10:50 |
| davmor2 | try booting fro it instead | 10:51 |
| willgreg | Hey, davmor2, that´s a good idea :) I can try that! | 10:52 |
| willgreg | Thanks all | 10:53 |
| davmor2 | willgreg: give me to secs and I'll tell you how to mod the menu.lst | 10:53 |

| ara | davmor2: he didn't :-) | 11:07 |
| davmor2 | ara: I know :( | 11:08 |
| davmor2 | ara: is there noway we could modify the script so it autoran a test.xml? Reason I ask is you could run the test as in alt-F2 that way | 12:29 |
| ara | davmor2: well, the final objective is to run those tests with checkbox, once the integration is completed | 12:30 |
| davmor2 | ah okay cool :) | 12:31 |
| ara | davmor2: but alt+f2 does not accept parameters? | 12:31 |
| davmor2 | I know that's why I say it you could put in a full path and command that ran the test automatically it would be better :) | 12:32 |
| daaaniel | i'm trying to find out status of intel gma x4500 support on the latest beta, it did not work very well for me on alpha 6 - can someon point me in the right direction? | 12:56 |

| davmor2 | ara: I keep getting an error on todays iso with openall. Between 1/3 and 2/3's of the way through I'm guessing I get "unable to parse temp_log.xml | 15:00 |
| mvo | that reminds me, how was the testing day for the upgrades? anything interessting? lots of failure and/or success reports? | 15:01 |
| ara | davmor2: which one are you running exactly? | 15:02 |
| davmor2 | openAll.xml | 15:02 |
| davmor2 | ara: ^ | 15:02 |
| ara | davmor2: try running them by group of applications | 15:02 |
| davmor2 | will do | 15:03 |
| ara | davmor2: it usually works better and it is easier to debug if anything goes wrong | 15:03 |
| davmor2 | ara: NP's | 15:04 |
| ara | mvo: not much about the upgrade process, afraid. but some new people came to give us a hand. I think some one reported something about broken deps, but it seemed related to 3rd party repos | 15:04 |
| ara | mvo: you can check the logs at http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2008/10/06/%23ubuntu-testing.txt | 15:04 |
| mvo | thanks ara, I have a look | 15:07 |
| davmor2 | ara: FF opens at the end with http://www.games.html what should it actually do? | 15:14 |
| ara | it should have opened with the file games.html generated at the path | 15:14 |
| ara | I have a question about vbox, maybe someone can point me in the right direction. I am running intrepid as a host, and hardy as guest. in order to increase the resolution of my virtual machine, should I install the guest-utils for intrepid or for hardy??? | 16:34 |
| * davmor2 runs vbox to check | 16:41 | |
| davmor2 | ara: reading the vbox info you just click on the devices tab in the running window and click on install guest additions | 16:52 |
| ara | davmor2: yes, I also tried that, but the image seems to give a 404 error | 16:53 |
| davmor2 | ah worked for me in hardy | 16:53 |
| ara | manually downloaded the iso file and put it under /usr/share/virtualbox in the host machine. that seems to have solved the issue | 17:08 |
| * ara takes a break before the meeting | 17:09 | |
| davmor2 | right I'm off Lugmeeting talk to you all tomorrow | 18:48 |
