| Anirban1987 | How can I upgrade from php 5.2.6 ( Inbuilt in Ubuntu 9.04 Server ed.) to latest stable ver. php 5.2.9 ? | 03:25 |
| twb | Anirban1987: upgrade to karmic, the as-yet-unreleased next version of Ubuntu | 03:28 |
| twb | !cherry-picking | 03:28 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about cherry-picking | 03:28 |
| Anirban1987 | twb : Can't I upgrade the php in Ubuntu 9.04 itself ? | 03:29 |
| twb | Anirban1987: you can, but it is not something that a novice should do, because you can screw up your system that way | 03:31 |
| twb | !pinning | 03:31 |
| ubottu | pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto | 03:31 |
| twb | That document explains how | 03:31 |
| wizardslovak | hello people | 03:33 |
| wizardslovak | i am having problem with static ip | 03:33 |
| twb | That doesn't surprise me. | 03:33 |
| Anirban1987 | twb : Can u do it for me if I give u SSH root access to my server ? | 03:33 |
| wizardslovak | i changed /etc/network/interfaces but when i reset network i am getting error "failed to bring up eth0" | 03:34 |
| twb | Anirban1987: no, and you should not offer arbitrary IRC denizens such privileges. | 03:34 |
| twb | wizardslovak: pastebin interfaces | 03:34 |
| Anirban1987 | twb : Can u atleast give me relevant web site links on how to do it ? | 03:35 |
| ajmitch | Anirban1987: is there a good reason you need to upgrade to 5.2.9? | 03:35 |
| Anirban1987 | ajmitch : I am going to start a web hosting company. Need to practice all those tricks beforehand. | 03:36 |
| wizardslovak | http://pastebin.com/m15fbc0cd | 03:38 |
| Anirban1987 | ajmitch , twb : Will be thankful if u giv necessary instructions how to do so. | 03:38 |
| ajmitch | twb did refer to a page about it a few minutes ago | 03:38 |
| twb | wizardslovak: I can't see anything obviously wrong there, but try removing the gateway line. | 03:39 |
| twb | wizardslovak: if that doesn't help, pastebin the output of "ifdown --force eth0; ifup eth0". | 03:40 |
| wizardslovak | ok i removed gateway line and no errors now | 03:42 |
| Anirban1987 | ajmitch : This instruction is very generalized in nature. What to do to specifically update from php 5.2.6 to 5.2.9. | 03:47 |

| slestak | cjwatson: good morning. i was lookig for the karmic deb for putty for another workstation. there doesnt appear to be any branches in LP. I thought a couple of weeks ago I was able to download 0.60-2009-04-05-1 | 14:36 |
| cjwatson | slestak: didn't you fetch the .deb from Debian? | 14:40 |
| cjwatson | it hasn't built in Ubuntu yet (https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/putty/0.60+2009-04-05-1/+build/974105) - I need to fix that | 14:41 |
| slestak | cjwatson: ty, i had forgotten | 14:41 |
| cjwatson | bunch of whining about strict-aliasing rules which always results in me having to allocate a solid hour to remembering what those actually are and fixing them :) | 14:41 |
| slestak | cjwatson: pls count on me for testign your deb, i am addicted to that product | 14:42 |
| slestak | cjwatson: _allocate a solid hour to remembering_ ;) isnt that what the wiki is for? | 14:42 |
| slestak | cjwatson: think 64 bit will be an issue for that package? i'm reinstalling my workstation this morning. | 14:43 |
| cjwatson | shouldn't be, works fine on Debian | 14:44 |
| slestak | cjwatson: i was thinking i may contact the debian maintainer and help him out, but... dang, your busy | 14:45 |
| cjwatson | yep, same guy | 14:46 |
| slestak | if you get a non-standard package that drops a foo.desktop file on your desktop (yugma|komodo edit), where do we put those so they are available and in the menu for all users on teh box? | 14:48 |

| kirkland | huats: i think so, maybe, let me grab the source | 15:07 |
| huats | kirkland: yeah I tend to do the same... I will | 15:07 |
| huats | kirkland: I can pastebin you the code if you want | 15:07 |
| axisys | sgsax: so I can only upgrade from LTS to LTS if I use do-release-upgrade ? | 15:09 |

| huats | kirkland: right now (on my jaunty) I am not a member of of kvm (and thus I cannot read or write on /dev/kvm) and I can create vm | 15:18 |

| Faust-C | hmm i might as well start a project to replace openfiler | 15:56 |
| kirkland | huats: yes, i am responsible for that patch | 15:57 |
| Faust-C | kinda odd how no one has made a storage distro w/ ubuntu | 15:57 |
| kirkland | huats: the bug I referred you to has the whole history | 15:57 |
| kirkland | huats: you're trying to determine if this patch is still required or not? | 15:57 |
| huats | kirkland: exactly :) that is what I am trying to figure out | 15:57 |
| kirkland | huats: do you have a /dev/kvm device? | 15:58 |
| huats | kirkland: I do | 15:58 |
| kirkland | huats: what are the perms on that device? | 16:01 |
| huats | kirkland: crw-rw----+ 1 root kvm | 16:02 |
| kirkland | huats: and what's your groups? | 16:03 |
| kirkland | huats: id | 16:03 |
| kirkland | huats: are you in the kvm group, i mean | 16:03 |

| huats | and I am not in the kvm group | 16:04 |
| kirkland | huats: and you can run virt-manager vm's with kvm acceleration, right? | 16:04 |
| huats | kirkland: it is the case right | 16:05 |
| huats | kirkland: any stuffs to test that ? | 16:06 |
| huats | (to validate because I am 99% sure it is the case) | 16:06 |
| kirkland | huats: do vm's run slow as snot? | 16:07 |
| huats | kirkland: nope they all run very well | 16:07 |
| huats | ... | 16:07 |
| kirkland | huats: i think this is actually fixed by a hal policy i wrote for kvm | 16:09 |
| kirkland | huats: grab the kvm source | 16:09 |
| kirkland | * Add debian/10-kvm.fdi, debian/org.freedesktop.hal.kvm.policy: hal object | 16:09 |
| kirkland | descriptor and policy file for kvm/virt-hardware | 16:09 |
| kirkland | * debian/kvm.install; Put the hal/PolicyKit configuration in the correct | 16:09 |
| kirkland | place (LP: #273764) | 16:09 |

Further more when I try to create a vm, it says at the end "virt type" "kvm", which tends to say it is useless now | 16:10 |
| kirkland | huats: okay, and you're definitely NOT in the kvm group? | 16:14 |
| huats | no I am not | 16:14 |
| huats | I have also checked the /etc/group file | 16:14 |
| huats | I am in the admin group, but I am not using sudo and I am not asked for my passwd | 16:15 |

| ScottK | Assuming you want to upgrade to Intrepid (and then maybe Jaunty) that's what you want. | 16:53 |

| sgsax | kees: glsa-check basically looks at the current list of glsa's (comparable to usn's), compares it to the list of currently installed packages, and generates a list of packages that are out-of-date and vulnerable | 19:39 |
| emptyrobotboy | I have ubuntu server 8.04 LTS and I have a PHP script that uses curl to open a website. This is failing at curl_init(). Do I need to install additional libraries? If so, how? | 19:39 |

| kees | sgsax: or do you want it finer grained? | 19:40 |
| kees | sgsax: I wonder if nxvl has anything like this yet. | 19:40 |
| sgsax | I'm doing something similar by parsing output from -s dist-upgrade | 19:40 |
| sgsax | the glsa-check goes one step further by adding the vuln ID and a very terse summary of the vuln | 19:41 |
