davmor2Guys I'm after a url for a safe source to add to sources.list do you know any?21:13
davmor2I don't want to use medibuntu cause it has software that could cause issues for people in the states and we don't want our testcases causing people issues21:14
mrooneydavmor2: you just want a harmless PPA orsomething?21:26
davmor2yes something like that21:27
mrooneycould you just create your own and not have any packages in it? or does it need something in it21:27
davmor2It needs something in it really I'll see if there is a ppa for the testing tool21:28
davmor2cr3: ping21:29
cr3davmor2: pong21:29
davmor2cr3: is there a repo style address for the testing ppa?21:29
cr3davmor2: testing ppa? there's a checkbox-dev ppa but not a more general testing ppa which might also include ara's desktop testing code for example21:30
davmor2cr3: I'm writing up the testcase for adding a repo so I need a safe repo to add (safe = no software that usa may as illegal)21:33
cr3davmor2: checkbox-dev should be appropriate, especially in a testcase context :)21:35
cr3davmor2: so see here for the sources.list lines: https://edge.launchpad.net/~checkbox-dev/+archive/ppa21:36
davmor2cr3: ta :)21:38
testcr3, ping23:24
testcr3, Nagappan here23:24
testcr3, in Ubuntu 9.04 for testing we removed eth0, now we are unable to add it back23:25
testcr3, and get an error "Adding connection failed: PolicyKit authorization could not be created"23:26
testcr3, any help ?23:26
cr3test: nice! you might have to drop to the shell to add it back23:31
testcr3, let me try23:32
cr3test: could you let me know if the ifconfig -a command still shows eth0?23:34
testcr3, yes23:35
testcr3, I down it23:35
cr3I wonder if you up it and then start the Network Configuration tool again whether it might magically appear again23:36
cr3test: by the way, pretty cool nick! :)23:36
testcr3, :D23:37
testcr3, from my friends desktop ;)23:38
cr3because your laptop doesn't have any eth0 interface? :)23:39
testcr3, no, this is his test machine and he has the issue23:42
testcr3, the reason is, when testing latest VMware workstation, always one ethernet interface is having control23:42
testcr3, either vmet8 when its alive23:42
testcr3, and when its down, the control comes back to eth023:43
testcr3, so, just as a try, my friend deleted eth023:43
testcr3, now he is unable to get back the thing23:43
testcr3, displayed in nm23:43
testcr3, no luck, when I bring back the device, it doesn't list in NM23:44
cr3test: maybe try moving .gconf* to some temporary directory and starting NM again23:45
testcr3, sure, will try23:45
cr3test: you might have to ctrl-alt-backspace, not sure23:45
testcr3, yes guessed it :)23:46
cr3test: sorry dude, I need to jet. good luck!23:47
