[00:04] do you know how to set a default os in grub2 [00:05] yes [00:05] In /etc/default/grub, I believe. [00:05] yes [00:06] default=0 (or 1,2,3,4) [00:06] and how do i determine which is which [00:06] look in your grub.cfg [00:06] and find which entry you want to set as default [00:06] 0 1 2 3 4 from top to bottom in your grub.cfg entries [00:06] where is grub.cfg? [00:07] /boot/grub/grub.cfg [00:08] billybigrigger: couldn't all this stuff be in ONE place?!?! lol [00:08] grub.cfg is not an actual config file, its compiled from /etc/grub.d/ [00:08] yah man, it's all over [00:08] ya its a mess [00:09] well it is a config file, just not meant to be edited [00:09] ALL grub2 config is done in /etc/grub.d/ and /etc/default/grub [00:10] lamalex::: wanna pastebin your grub.cfg?

[00:21] I do not consider a PPA a distro version , no [00:21] (Geoloc support is currently disabled, though, pending some promotion-to-main for the dependencies) [00:21] BUGabundo: yah, so in karmic should probably mean seeded/main [00:22] not for me [00:22] so banshee is not really IN karmic [00:22] it's available to karmic [00:22] I think you're using an overly restricted definition for "in karmic". I think most people will take "in karmic" to mean "in an official repository". [00:22] Not by default, yet, no. [00:23] RAOF: not afraid to tell most people their definition is wrong [00:23] Heh.

[02:25] Any suggestions on whether I should upgrade to grub2? Anyone know of a good online how-to? [02:25] The Ubuntu wiki page should be reasonable. [02:26] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 [02:26] you might as well upgrade and start getting used to it [02:27] it is coming, and the grub devs aren't supporting grub legacy anymore [02:27] That said, it's been coming for a _long_ time, and the grub devs haven't been supporting grub legacy for longer :) [02:28] :P [02:28] well the big push on the ubuntu side has only come since karmic afaik, correct me if im wrong [02:31] Oh, yeah. That's right. [02:55] woohoo, got gvfs all fixed up so mounts work again [02:56] posted the patches i used here -- https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/bugs/393051 [02:56] Ubuntu bug 393051 in gvfs "Unable to mount any media in nautilus." [Undecided,New] [03:02] Sarvatt: I'm going to build a package and put in my testing ppa to see if it works. [03:04] just uploaded a very unclean package that people will have to remember to revert when ubuntu updates it since I couldnt reuse the orig.tar.gz to https://edge.launchpad.net/~sarvatt/+archive/bugs [03:05] Sarvatt: what type of patching system does gvfs use? You shouldn't need to alter the orig.tar if it's patched from debian/ [03:06] i couldnt patch it in debian like i said in the bug, tried that many times but it doesnt work adding them to the series [03:06] Ah... quilt. You can't just add the patch to the patches directory, you need to tell quilt what files it's allowed to edit [03:06] it patched fine but its running something that screws it up [03:08] it could end up patching fine just disabling 90_relibtoolize.patch and having the other 2 in the series, thats the only way i didnt check [03:08] err building fine [03:10] i dont know how all that junk works but 90_relibtoolize.patch was making it build correctly [03:10] making it not build correctly, sorry [03:11] i made that second patch because i needed to remove the stuff from the monitor/gdu/Makefile.in shipped in the orig.tar.gz [03:12] if you get it working with the real orig.tar.gz lemme know :) [03:18] Sarvatt: this might not work, but try setting up the rules to run autogen,sh before building [03:18] no autogen shipped [03:18] or i would have :( [03:21] hmm.... how about adding `DEB_AUTO_UPDATE_LIBTOOL:= pre` to the rules? [03:21] Sarvatt: You can generally run 'autoreconf'; you don't necessarily need an autogen.sh. [03:22] my command will run libtoolize at the start of the build process [03:24] well I will let someone else work that out, spent too many hours getting the patches working and wifes nagging me which is why i just posted the patches that work to the bug instead of putting up a debdiff :D [03:28] start.S undefined reference to `main' was the error it was failing with adding them to the series with 90_relibtoolize.patch if it helps any [03:38] put working debs here because launchpad is taking a year http://sarvatt.com/downloads/gvfs/ [03:58] looking at it i guess all it would need is to disable 90_relibtoolize.patch and add the git commit patch, the relibtoolize one looks like it just enables maintainer mode making the .in's not get rebuilt [05:27] Sarvatt: hmm... whenever I try to build a package with your patches in debian, it starts building but I keep getting a build error along the way.

There are some features missing from vanilla kde but perhaps I'm just missing some packages: nepomuk search bar in dolphin (instead I have one additional empty toolbar), The QEdge wallpaper plugin, some desktop types like the black board [15:56] can you pastebin a /var/log/Xorg.0.log from a failed boot?

[16:10] can you try i915.modeset=0 instead of nomodeset? nomodeset might not be getting passed early enough since i915 is in the initrd now, i'm not sure [16:11] trying that now ... I guess kern.log doesn't help since it will be overwritten when I attempt to boot into recovery mode [16:11] modeset=0 doesn't help either, same error (but no KMS) [16:11] berniv6: You could always try a live-cd or other boot method [16:12] hrm, right, will do [16:13] I fixed the issue by reinstalling xorg [16:14] /var/log/kern.log isn't written, as it doesn't get to the point where to start syslogd [16:16] OK, see ya [16:17] okay, something with my boot process is fishy [16:17] I put a debugging statement in the last job in rcS.d (x11-common) and in the first job in rc3.d (policykit) [16:18] at the end of the x11-common job and in the very beginning of policykit [16:18] I see the first but not the latter [16:23] aha! [16:23] when I manually specify the target runlevel on the bootprompt ("3") it boots just fine [16:24] where should it get that information from? [16:26] Well, Isn't rc2.d the default for Ubuntu?

[20:02] I've tried ndiswrapper in the past but it didn't work [20:02] with the drivers I was using on windows... although there are several other windows drivers included in the dell install dvd [20:02] that I haven't tried [20:02] DoYouKnow, try wicd [20:06] BluesKaj, but it's the drivers that are the problem [20:06] the generic driver is well wriiten to fit most wifi cards [20:09] what should I use for drivers for dell 1505? [20:09] hello? [20:10] BluesKaj, it's not the wireless manager that's the problem [20:10] it's the drivers [20:10] I need dell 1505 drivers [20:10] " with the drivers I was using on windows..." [20:11] sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source if its a BCM4321, it doesnt help theres alot of different cards that could be in there [20:12] DoYouKnow, just try it ..it won't break your ssytem [20:14] it didn't work [20:14] I don't even see the wireless device [20:14] I tried it and it didn't work' [20:15] di you try to set up preferences [20:16] anyone else with bug 393433 and want to confirm? tags: suspend, intel [20:16] Launchpad bug 393433 in xserver-xorg-video-intel "[karmic] Restoring from suspend ends up with blank screen" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/393433 [20:17] BluesKaj, what will that do? [20:17] I currently don't have a working driver afaik [20:17] set up the driver and encryption [20:18] which driver? [20:21] wext [20:23] when i try to mount a cdrom, i get this error, and it doesn't mount: org.freedesktop.PolicyKit.Error.NotAuthorized: org.freedesktop.devicekit.disks.filesystem-mount no, what could it be? [20:29] is keyserver.ubuntu.com down? [20:30] I'm trying to install the driver [20:36] hey guys to days updates apparently killed my sound card ..it kicks in during boot but I get a notification from Phonon that my card does not work now [20:36] http://picpaste.com/snapshot2.png [20:38] also right click on link in xchat I get error saying "cannot find the program 'aroroa" ?? [20:39] arora [20:41] how do I get broadcom-sta working in karmic? [20:41] what's the easiest way you guys think? [21:07] DoYouKnow: bcmwl-kernel-source=broadcom-sta [21:08] what's that? [21:08] I don't understnad [21:08] *understand [21:12] Sarvatt, is that the easiest way to support a broadcom 802.11n card? [21:14] I had some severe problems on hardy with this driver [21:15] random disconnects [21:15] so I am wary [21:15] this has really been a lot of work [21:17] I had a laptop under $1000 that worked better with linux than this one [21:17] and this was very expensive [21:17] so... it's kind of upsetting [21:18] this is an xps m1530 [21:18] DoYouKnow, wicd looks at your hardware wifi/wln0/eth0 connection and determines which driver to use in it's arsenal so to speak [21:20] now I get package wicd has no installation candidate [21:20] what did I do now...heh.. [21:22] DoYouKnow, uninstall any other wifi drivers [21:24] hmm [21:24] I don't think any are installed right now [21:24] but I definitely did something [21:26] hm. [21:26] PolicyKit stuff seems to have broken my pulseaudio [21:26] I get some badness if I do -vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv[etc] when launching pulse: [21:26] I: main.c: setrlimit(RLIMIT_NICE, (31, 31)) failed: Operation not permitted [21:26] I: main.c: setrlimit(RLIMIT_RTPRIO, (9, 9)) failed: Operation not permitted [21:27] Anybody else run into problems? [21:58] I'm still getting the wicd has no installation candidate message [21:58] is there any way to get around this without reinstalling kubuntu? [22:04] well, it looks like I'm going to have to redo it === le_bilou1e is now known as le_biloute === WelshDragon is now known as YDdraigGoch
