| delight | did somebody try to install a virtualbox on lucid (maybe the karmic version as there is no lucid version on the virtualbox repos yet) | 00:56 |
| BUGabundo | $ apt-cache policy virtualbox-ose | 01:01 |
| BUGabundo | virtualbox-ose: | 01:01 |
| BUGabundo | Installed: (none) | 01:01 |
| BUGabundo | Candidate: 3.0.8-dfsg-1ubuntu1 | 01:01 |
| BUGabundo | are you sure delight? | 01:01 |
| BUGabundo | meww no 3.1 ? bah | 01:01 |
| delight | BUGabundo: I wasn't talking about the ose ;) ... I'm trying to install the karmic deb on lucid right now ... let's see how that works :-\ | 01:06 |
| delight | :-D | 01:06 |
| BUGabundo | ahh | 01:07 |
| BUGabundo | should work | 01:07 |
| BUGabundo | you just need kernel support | 01:07 |
| BUGabundo | that is done by KMS | 01:07 |
| BUGabundo | I have it running in debian unstable for kernel .32 | 01:07 |
| delight | http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/3.1.2/ or deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian karmic non-free <<< is what i ment ... but I'll find out | 01:08 |
| BUGabundo | that's what I said | 01:09 |
| delight | BUGabundo: ^^^yes ;) and as it seems it works great on my box too ;) | 01:11 |

| biovore | anyone know how to get lynx to boot and not start X? Is there kernel command line to make it so it dosn't start X. | 05:46 |
| crimsun | boot into single-user, disable gdm, then continue | 05:49 |
| biovore | single start X , X kills box.. | 05:49 |
| biovore | thus no console :-( | 05:49 |
| crimsun | tried specifying init explicitly, then? | 05:50 |
| biovore | can't get a console to do that.. | 05:50 |
| biovore | could make it not start gdm.. but if I can't get a console I can't do any of these methods.. | 05:51 |
| crimsun | you can't get to a grub menu? | 05:51 |
| biovore | yes | 05:51 |
| crimsun | you can? then pass init=/bin/sh | 05:51 |
| biovore | use to be able to do a -b and get it to drop to a shell.. | 05:51 |
| biovore | yeah.. I can try that.. | 05:51 |
| biovore | hmm that show some promise.. But seems to just stalls.. Dosn't seem to spawn a sh | 05:54 |
| biovore | finishes /scripts/init-bottom from the ramdisk then just stops.. | 05:54 |
| biovore | init=/bin/bash -b worked though.. thanks | 05:58 |

| CosmiChaos | how to stop GDM/X in TTY in +1. on execution of "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" (like it used to work) it wont and recommends to run "service gdm stop", on doing that it just says: stop: Rejected send message, 1 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.56" (uid=1000 pid=13070 comm="stop) interface="com.ubuntu.Upstart0_6.Job" member="Stop" error name="(unset)" requested_reply=0 destination="com.ubuntu.Upstart" (uid=0 pid=1 comm="/sbin | 15:52 |
| CosmiChaos | /init)) | 15:52 |
| CosmiChaos | found it out myself howto stop gdm/x, superuser does the job from inside a X terminal (sudo service gdm stop) that shut it down and took me to TTY1 ;) | 15:57 |
| CosmiChaos | heres how i found out how to get around the crazy boot-animation/TTY graphic issues i had. grub booted my kernels automatically with vga=795, i just removed them from the menu.lst, its just low res but its ok for terminal and bootanim. | 16:00 |

| nysosym | hi there | 16:57 |
| nysosym | my macbook centers the cursor, based on the motion sensors (i can move the curse with the angle of my macbook) but how can i disable this "feature"? | 16:58 |
| nysosym | i cant find any xorg.conf | 16:58 |
| nysosym | curse = cursor | 16:58 |
| Sarvatt | nysosym: sudo rmmod applesmc | 17:09 |
| SoftwareExplorer | Am I the only one that can't login when I'm running the latest daily image off live cd/usb? | 17:11 |
| Hans_Henrik | no | 17:12 |
| airstrike | no, Hans_Henrik has the same problem | 17:12 |
| Hans_Henrik | i got that problem too (downloaded like 3 hours ago) | 17:12 |
| SoftwareExplorer | I did notice you can get to a already logged in shell if you do Ctrl Alt F3 though. Don't know if that helps. | 17:13 |
| nysosym | Sarvatt: Thank you sooooo much! :) | 17:14 |
| Hans_Henrik | SoftwareExplorer: thanks for the tip, ill try it later :p | 17:14 |
| SoftwareExplorer | Hans_Henrik: Your welcome. :) | 17:15 |
| nysosym | hmmm i had a sporadic desktop flicker on my macbook 2G (GMA 950) | 17:19 |

| yofel | well, I have an 945GME and am suffering from bug 492392, the flashes don't start immediately after wakeup though | 17:27 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 492392 in linux "[lucid, intel] After suspend, flickering screen and then blank screen." [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/492392 | 17:27 |
| nysosym | hmm its just a short flicker every 3-5min | 17:28 |
| Amaranth | macbook never used 945 | 17:28 |
| yofel | yep, exactly that | 17:28 |
| yofel | Amaranth: he has a 950 | 17:28 |
| nysosym | but i dont get a blank screen | 17:28 |
| Sarvatt | yofel: thanks for linking that bug, been looking for one of those to put the fix info on :) | 18:51 |
| Sarvatt | its fixed with a drm-intel-next kernel 12-22 or newer from the mainline kernel site if you need a fix before it gets backported | 18:53 |

| ghostcube | ;) | 19:05 |
| ghostcube | van i pull everything so just add ppa | 19:06 |
| ghostcube | or is this not good ? | 19:06 |
| bjsnider | what? | 19:08 |
| ghostcube | if i just add the ppa or if i sho0uld install libxine manually? | 19:09 |
| bjsnider | add the ppa | 19:11 |
| ghostcube | ok done :) | 19:13 |
| ghostcube | brb | 19:13 |
| bjsnider | well, he didn't have to restart | 19:18 |

| SoftwareExplorer | Does anyone know how to get the nvidia driver working in Lucid? | 21:28 |
| yofel | SoftwareExplorer: use the drivers from the nvidia vdpau ppa | 21:30 |
| yofel | -.- | 21:30 |
| yofel | SoftwareExplorer: use the drivers from the nvidia vdpau ppa | 21:30 |
| yofel | the 190 drivers from xorg edgers should work too afaik | 21:31 |
| SoftwareExplorer | yofel: Ok, thanks. Is this the right ppa https://launchpad.net/~nvidia-vdpau/+archive/ppa? | 21:32 |
| bjsnider | the 190 or 195 | 21:32 |
| bjsnider | the problem with the nvidia blob in the lucid repos is that it needs to be rebuild against the new x server | 21:33 |
| yofel | SoftwareExplorer: yes | 21:33 |
| SoftwareExplorer | yofel: Ok, thanks. :) | 21:33 |
| knittl | hi, has anybody else got problems with ureadahead (or plymouth??) | 21:46 |
| knittl | i get a lot of error messages after grub | 21:47 |
| knittl | ureadahead terminated with status 4 | 21:47 |
| knittl | mountall: cannot connect to plymouth | 21:47 |
| knittl | plymouth-log: $something | 21:47 |
| knittl | cannot start session: no such file or directory | 21:47 |
| DanaG | that reminds me... I should file a bug report about plymouth refusing to display splash if it gets console= on the kernel command line. | 21:52 |
| DanaG | https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=22239 | 21:53 |
| ubottu | Freedesktop bug 22239 in plymouth general "improve console= handling" [Normal,New] | 21:53 |
| DanaG | there's the existing upstream bug report. | 21:53 |
| joaopinto | knittl, I am getting those also | 21:53 |
| joaopinto | i need to boot without the splash option | 21:53 |
| DanaG | oh, and ureadahead exits with status 1, upon trying to preload stuff in /home | 21:54 |
| bjsnider | i thought there was one where plymouth wouldn't work if there were any extra kernel line options | 21:54 |
| knittl | i tried quiet splash and splash only | 21:55 |
| knittl | happens with both | 21:55 |
| knittl | also starting after logging in in gdm takes a lot of bjsnider | 21:55 |
| knittl | * a lot of time | 21:55 |
| knittl | lol xD | 21:56 |
| knittl | bjsnider: but i also got problems with nvidia drivers | 21:56 |
| bjsnider | it takes a lot of me? | 21:56 |
| knittl | i have to run dpkg-reconfigure nvidia-glx-195 almost everytime, otherwise i'll get an errorbox saying my desktop started in low graphics mode | 21:56 |
| knittl | bjsnider: no, a lot of time. i was faster typing than thinking :D | 21:57 |
| knittl | * typing faster | 21:57 |
| knittl | meh :-$ | 21:57 |
| bjsnider | did you use jockey to install the nvidia driver? | 21:57 |
| knittl | what's jockey? i used apt-get to install them from the vdpau ppa | 21:58 |
| knittl | ah, no i didn't use the hardware drivers manager | 21:58 |
| knittl | it wouldn't find them anyway | 21:58 |
| bjsnider | it wouldn't find what? | 21:59 |
| knittl | nvidia drivers | 22:00 |
| bjsnider | i don't see why not | 22:00 |
| knittl | and even now it tells me there are no restricted drivers in use on my system. it won't recommend any eihter | 22:00 |
| bjsnider | you're using the updated nvidia-common from hte ppa and the modaliases packages? | 22:01 |
| knittl | hm no | 22:01 |
| knittl | let me install that :) | 22:01 |
| knittl | i was only using nvidia-glx-195 | 22:02 |
| bjsnider | you need the nvidia-common and the modaliases packages for jockey to work | 22:03 |
| knittl | and a restart? | 22:05 |
| bjsnider | no | 22:06 |
| bjsnider | well, jockey might need to restart | 22:06 |
| knittl | no proprietary drivers in use on this system | 22:07 |
| knittl | but installing nvidia-common was a good thing to do ^^ | 22:09 |
| bjsnider | does it see and recommend the 195 driver? | 22:10 |
| knittl | nop | 22:10 |
| bjsnider | do you have the 195 modaiases package installed? | 22:10 |
| knittl | it doesn't show anything | 22:10 |
| knittl | state: installed | 22:11 |

| nysosym | hi there, how can i define i915.modeset=0 as bootoption? | 23:29 |
| nysosym | i have tried it with "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="i915.modeset=0"" in /etc/default/grub | 23:30 |
| nysosym | but it doesn't work | 23:30 |
| nysosym | sry for that, i had a crash | 23:36 |
| yofel | hm... it's been a while since I had to use that, but iirc you create some config file in /etc/modprobe.d/ | 23:39 |
| yofel | lemme google... | 23:39 |
| yofel | ah, found it, create some random config file, I'll use i915-kms.conf so that it makes sense, and put 'options i915 modeset=0' in there | 23:41 |
| yofel | when the kernel loads the module KMS should be off | 23:43 |
| yofel | nysosym: ^^^ | 23:43 |
