| BUGabundo | balsaq: is it muted | 01:09 |
| BUGabundo | ? | 01:09 |
| balsaq | BUGabundo, no lol | 01:09 |
| BUGabundo | just asking | 01:10 |
| BUGabundo | used to happen a lot in 9.x | 01:10 |
| balsaq | really? | 01:10 |
| balsaq | i'm using the xubuntu alpha | 01:11 |
| BUGabundo | upgrade or clean install? | 01:12 |
| balsaq | still no sound | 01:28 |
| balsaq | how could clean install help? | 01:28 |
| balsaq | wouldn't that bring me back to the same updates? | 01:28 |
| balsaq | hope my last name doesn't offend anyone | 01:29 |
| BUGabundo | no | 01:30 |
| BUGabundo | clean install is the last resort | 01:30 |
| balsaq | there's other things i can try? | 01:30 |
| BUGabundo | you should talk to crimsun | 01:34 |
| BUGabundo | he is the guy behind audio | 01:34 |
| switchgirl | hi when i click on a link in a java chat aplet the java applet crashes and the window looses my log in details | 01:44 |
| bjorkintosh | switchgirl, are you using icedtea? | 01:46 |
| bjorkintosh | or the latest jre from oracle? | 01:46 |
| switchgirl | icedtea? | 01:46 |
| bjorkintosh | sure. | 01:47 |
| bjorkintosh | about:plugins | 01:47 |
| bjorkintosh | in firefox. | 01:47 |
| bjorkintosh | it should tell you which java you've installed, i think. | 01:47 |
| balsaq | is crimsun here? | 01:47 |
| switchgirl | IcedTea NPR Web Browser Plugin (using IcedTea6 1.7 (6b17-1.7-1ubuntu1)) | 01:48 |
| bjorkintosh | switchgirl, you might want to replace that with the real jre from sun/oracle. | 01:51 |
| yofel | bjorkintosh: the sun jre isn't available any more in lucid | 01:51 |
| bjorkintosh | but but ... why? | 01:52 |
| yofel | don't know, it got removed a while ago | 01:52 |
| balsaq | my sound stopped working recently, don't know why | 01:52 |
| bjorkintosh | balsaq, cause you're using lucid lynx. | 01:53 |
| switchgirl | pardon balsaq | 01:53 |
| switchgirl | lol | 01:53 |
| bjorkintosh | it might also be your settings... | 01:53 |
| balsaq | i didn't change anything | 01:53 |
| bjorkintosh | that's fine, but lucid is always changing. | 01:53 |
| bjorkintosh | regularly. | 01:53 |
| bjorkintosh | hourly, infact. | 01:53 |
| switchgirl | sound works balsaq but no applet available | 01:53 |
| balsaq | updates that often? lol | 01:53 |
| balsaq | applet is available in the top right | 01:53 |
| bjorkintosh | from different parties, yeah. | 01:54 |
| switchgirl | not for me | 01:54 |

| ZykoticK9 | SomeoneE1se, there is no default xorg.conf file in Karmic or Lucid | 04:47 |
| ZykoticK9 | SomeoneE1se, if you're using nvidia you can use "sudo nvidia-xconfig" to generate one, if your using another gfx card then it's something else | 04:48 |
| rww | sudo Xorg -configure will generate one | 05:01 |
| ZykoticK9 | rww, inorder for that to work i believe that GDM/Xorg must NOT be running, just an FYI - not sure who asked about it | 05:02 |

| ZykoticK9 | vish, /usr/bin/javaws ? | 07:21 |

| ZykoticK9 | vish, what did you install specifically? if you don't mind me asking? | 07:22 |
| vish | previously the javaws file wasnt there , hence i was stumped :s | 07:22 |
| vish | ZykoticK9: i had to install openjdk-6-jre | 07:22 |
| ZykoticK9 | vish, thanks, is that the closest thing to sun-java in the repo i take it? | 07:23 |
| vish | yeah | 07:23 |
| ZykoticK9 | vish, do you happen to know, is the Sun Java removal on Lucid permanent? or is this just a temporary thing? | 07:24 |
| vish | ZykoticK9: i'm not entirely sure why it was removed... but it seems to be more , no one has packaged it for Lucid , and might not in time for Lucid.. or something .. not very sure | 07:25 |
| ZykoticK9 | vish, thanks, i was AMAZED it was removed | 07:25 |
| vish | ZykoticK9: np.. but stuff seems working fine with open-jdk too.. [maybe the fonts are a bit off ] but not bad , nothing to fear ;) | 07:32 |
| ZykoticK9 | vish, someone in #ubuntu was just informed of Sun Java removal and asking WHY as well. | 07:34 |

| dinobisk | Hi. With Grub, how do I get into Recovery Mode? (Or is there some other way?) Neither Shift nor Esc works. I'm on a MacBook 1sg generation, single boot. I have a Live CD. | 13:49 |
| BluesKaj | dinobisk, use the arrow keys to navigate | 13:51 |
| dinobisk | BluesKaj: Navigate? There is no menu. It says "GRUB" and nothing about an esc-key, and then Ubuntu boots (and fails). | 13:53 |
| BluesKaj | so you have no menu , sorry ..can you get to a tty prompt , al+ctrl+f1 ? | 13:56 |
| BluesKaj | err , alt+ctrl+F1 | 13:57 |
| BluesKaj | dinobisk, ? | 13:58 |
| rtgz | dinobisk, hold shift during boot for grub2 menu | 13:58 |
| dinobisk | I'll have to reboot this computer and try. Could perhaps an Apple keyboard cause any problems. I had to remap it in Ubuntu. | 13:59 |
| dinobisk | rtgz: I doesn't work. | 13:59 |
| zniavre | rtgz, is it enough to make menu grub appears? | 13:59 |
| rtgz | dinobisk, hm, i hate this solution, but try to press it several times during boot, it looks like the controller might ignore the press state of the key | 14:00 |
| BluesKaj | dinobisk, if alt+ctrl+F1 gets you to a prompt then do , sudo update-grub | 14:00 |
| rtgz | dinobisk, better yet, reboot the machine and hold shift right after the initial post completes. Unfortunately no apple hardware here, so i am just assuming that there is some kind of 'welcome screen' or post, etc. | 14:02 |
| rtgz | zniavre, yes, it is the only way to bring grub2 menu as far as I know | 14:02 |
| zniavre | ok im taking notes thank you | 14:03 |
| dinobisk | rtgz: I've tried both holding an continuing pressing the shift key from the moment the computer starts up. It doesn't help. | 14:03 |
| dinobisk | But while I'm here: Perhaps someone knows another solution: When I boot Ubuntu, i get a black screen (correct resolution), a bongo drums sound, the possibility to move the mouse pointer, and the possibility to write using the keyboard (but with some strange mapping), not in a console-like thing, though. | 14:05 |
| dinobisk | It worked flawless until I booted it today. Probably some update messed up. | 14:06 |
| dinobisk | *flawlessly | 14:07 |
| BluesKaj | dinobisk, so no shell prompt (tty) is available ? | 14:08 |
| dinobisk | BluesKaj: No. | 14:09 |
| gnubie | I'm guessing that during my last update I should have checked more than the /dev/sda box on the grub install checklist. | 14:09 |
| dinobisk | Could the Live DVD help me here? | 14:10 |
| BluesKaj | I haven't tried it but using the live cd to repair grub is possible , there are some tutorials | 14:10 |
| gnubie | my linux and linux recovery from the grub menu now freeze my pc, while the memtest and windows2000 still work. | 14:13 |
| dinobisk | Well, thanks anyway. I'll try to reboot now with a more PC-like keyboard, pressing shift and esc and alt+ctr+f1. If it doesn't work I'll be back. | 14:13 |
| BluesKaj | ok | 14:13 |
| JimLovell777 | I've tried installing Alpha 1 and 2 on a desktop Dell PC I have and both failed. Both times I tried the x86 alternate install cd. I get asked the keyboard language and then the install starts loading files when after a few moments the screen goes black and text starts scrolling by rapidly. How can/do I capture the information that is usefull to developers? | 14:16 |
| rtgz | JimLovell777, do you have a camera? I suppose you have the text scrolling infinitely, right? | 14:17 |
| charlie-tca | JimLovell777: you could try the debugging procedures, they give some information about capturing logs, etc for bug reports: | 14:18 |
| charlie-tca | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProcedures | 14:18 |
| JimLovell777 | rtgz: it stops I can read the last dozen or so lines. | 14:19 |
| JimLovell777 | The last line is syscal0x7/0xb | 14:20 |
| JimLovell777 | charlie-tca: A quick browse shows I'd need to get far enough to write the logs to a USB drive. I don't get that far that I can tell | 14:22 |
| JimLovell777 | rtgz: Where or to whom do I submit the pictures? | 14:24 |
| BluesKaj | JimLovell777, have you considered installing Karmic first , the upgrading from there > | 14:27 |
| BluesKaj | then | 14:28 |
| JimLovell777 | BluesKaj: Karmic fails also. I figured since the installer fails I might as well try the alpha release, I didn't have a thing to lose. It's not a computer I use often, I use it as more of a home server. | 14:29 |
| BluesKaj | JimLovell777, that's odd ...is the pc older than 5 yrs ? | 14:30 |
| JimLovell777 | BluesKaj: Yes. The only version of Ubuntu that hasn't failed to install yet was 8.04 but like I said i don't use it a lot so I like to experiment with it. I also hope it is one day supported out of the box. | 14:31 |
| JimLovell777 | ...again. | 14:32 |
| charlie-tca | JimLovell777: have you tried that system using safe graphics mode? | 14:32 |
| JimLovell777 | charlie-tca: Not with Lucid, I'll try that now. Every previous version (-8.04) halted with a kernel panic. | 14:33 |
| BluesKaj | isn't 8.04 LTS ? , if so a do release upgrade from 8.04 might work | 14:36 |
| dinobisk | Several Internet pages say this: In live CD terminal type sudo grub, root (hd0,?), setup (hd0), quit. Does this actually _reinstall_ grub, or does is reconfigure it the way it probably is already? | 14:36 |
| JimLovell777 | charlie-tca: Didn't work, same thing. | 14:37 |
| JimLovell777 | BluesKaj: That has worked once before. I'm sure that's what I'll end up doing. My system is kluttered with stuff so I wanted to start fresh. Knowing my computer has never played well I thought it might be worth trying to help if it may lead to resolving the issue for me as well as others. | 14:38 |

| ZykoticK9 | http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/lucid/alpha2 | 15:35 |
| ZykoticK9 | billybigrigger, and in order to use vdpau the drive is going to have to say "nvidia" in your Xorg | 15:37 |
| afd_ | What about this error? http://dpaste.com/155000/ Is it a versioning bug in the python-kde4 package? | 15:40 |
| alex_mayorga | Is archive.ubuntu.com slow today or is it my connection? | 15:41 |
| billybigrigger | archive is slow | 15:41 |
| ZykoticK9 | afd_, you should probably file a bug (if there isn't one already) | 15:41 |
| afd_ | ZykoticK9: what's the URL where I should file thte bug? | 15:42 |
| alex_mayorga | billybigrigger: thanks on confirming | 15:42 |
| BluesKaj | afd_, do you use synaptic ? if so, go to edit , fix broken packages, apply | 15:43 |
| ZykoticK9 | afd_, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for details but you usually use the command "ubuntu-bug $PACKAGENAME" | 15:43 |
| afd_ | BluesKaj: I don't have broken packages | 15:43 |
| billybigrigger | afd_, by your pastebin i'd say you dfo | 15:43 |
| billybigrigger | do | 15:43 |
| alex_mayorga | BluesKaj, for the bongos System>Pref>Sound sound theme = no sounds should do | 15:43 |
| afd_ | billybigrigger: really, I don't | 15:43 |
| BluesKaj | afd_, really? your paste show that you do | 15:44 |
| afd_ | there's nothing under the Status > Broken tab (the Broken is not there) | 15:44 |
| ZykoticK9 | "unmet dependencies" != "broken packages" | 15:44 |
| BluesKaj | alex_mayorga, I'm on kde , sry , forgot to mention that | 15:44 |
| billybigrigger | BluesKaj, how's thing btw | 15:45 |
| billybigrigger | things | 15:45 |
| BluesKaj | good billybigrigger , how about you ? | 15:45 |
| billybigrigger | BluesKaj, enjoying winter? :P | 15:45 |
| billybigrigger | loving the weather over here that's for sure, just got out of the boonies for a month and weather here in calgary is amazing | 15:45 |
| BluesKaj | it's beem pretty boring weatherwise ....very little snow in the last 5 weeks , normal temps | 15:46 |
| billybigrigger | -13c this morning, we hit -5 yesterday | 15:46 |
| billybigrigger | those are not normal temps for feb. here :P hehe | 15:46 |
| BluesKaj | yeah, about the same here | 15:46 |
| BluesKaj | afd_, make sure you have all the repos enabled in your source.list | 15:50 |
| BluesKaj | err sources.list | 15:50 |
| ZykoticK9 | BluesKaj, the packages are too NEW in afd_'s issue | 15:50 |
| afd_ | ZykoticK9: yeah, the version of KDE I had (4.3.95) was really broken (I couldn't add a plasma widget without plasma-desktop breaking) | 15:51 |
| afd_ | So when there was an update today I've updated all the packages | 15:51 |
| afd_ | it removed some when I hit update | 15:52 |
| afd_ | and now the KDE session is not available in GDM, as the kdebase-workspace packages are gone | 15:52 |
| ZykoticK9 | afd_, personally i haven't used KDE in 5-6+ years - i usually pull in all the KDE libs to install K3b, but have decided that I'm going to give it up (although I feel it's the best burning app available, the KDE libs are so big they don't justify 1 program) | 15:53 |
| BluesKaj | ZykoticK9,I doubt the packages aren't too new , I'll bet the sources.list isn't up to date | 15:55 |
| BluesKaj | err are too new | 15:55 |
| ZykoticK9 | BluesKaj, don't you hate double-negative typos ;) | 15:55 |
| BluesKaj | i won't the holew any deeper ...you know what i mean :) | 15:56 |

| luis_lopez | afd_, I can confirm your bug | 15:57 |
| afd_ | luis_lopez: cool, so it's not just me | 15:57 |
| luis_lopez | afd_ in my case I had to install lxde for the moment... :( | 15:57 |
| ZykoticK9 | afd_, luis_lopez you both "should" file bugs! | 15:57 |
| luis_lopez | ZykoticK9: will do | 15:58 |
| afd_ | luis_lopez: I'm counting on you, I'm not gonna install apport (it install zope.interface and I do Zope development, that's a sure case for conflicts) | 15:58 |
| dinobisk | Hi. I need to boot into shell (X does not work). Problem is, I cannot press shift or esc or any combination in Grub, and I am really tired of trying to fix it. Does sonemone have any idea? | 15:59 |
| ZykoticK9 | dinobisk, holding shift "should" give you the boot choices | 15:59 |
| dinobisk | ZykoticK9: It does not. I have reinstalled Grub with the Live CD two times, the last time after running apt-get update. It has not fixed anything, and I really want to try something else now. | 16:01 |
| ZykoticK9 | dinobisk, you could boot live cd and chroot into your system? | 16:02 |
| dinobisk | ZykoticK9: Could you tell me how. I am really tired of googling. (Sorry.) | 16:03 |
| dinobisk | ... so tired I forget to write question marks. | 16:04 |
| dinobisk | ... an using correct English. | 16:04 |
| ZykoticK9 | dinobisk, this gives direction for the chroot https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#Recover Grub 2 via LiveCD (not sure if you'll be able to use that as a link, but check the "Revocer Grub 2 via LiveCD" for info, obviously leave out anything that is directly related to Grub fixing - you just need the chroot stuff) | 16:05 |
| dinobisk | ZykoticK9: Thanks! | 16:12 |

| mahasamoot | if I want to use btrfs, am I better off installing 9.10 or 10.4? | 16:18 |
| mahasamoot | ... there's a howto that tells how to get btrfs working on 9.10 | 16:19 |
| ZykoticK9 | mahasamoot, i have no idea if it run in 10.04 or not - i hope you pay special attention to the top of there page "Btrfs is under heavy development, and is not suitable for any uses other than benchmarking and review" | 16:19 |
| mahasamoot | that's true... it's a little scarry, but I've also read that it's about to ready for early users... as of 2.6.32 and 10.4 uses 2.6.32 | 16:21 |
| dinobisk | When booting, I get a blank screen instead of the login screen. (With stupid bongo drums sound, movable mouse pointer, possibility for keyboard input -- but with some strange mapping and no shell.) Having chroot-ed from the Live CD, does anybody know to fix it? | 16:23 |
| dinobisk | .. oh, and the screen resolution is right. | 16:23 |
| mahasamoot | how bad is the stabilty of 10.4? | 16:25 |
| mahasamoot | ...works well most of the time, ... cross your fingers? | 16:26 |
| BluesKaj | mahasamoot, I was getting some annoyed for a while aith all the crashing of dirs and some apps , but now it seems better ..let's hope it lasts :) | 16:27 |

| unknown_ | hi, is it possible somehow to install Ubuntu 10.04 on fake Raid 5 ? I was fighting with 9.10 with no result, and wonder if 10.04 is worth of try.. | 19:15 |
| unknown_ | to be clear, I'm able to install it, but not able to boot | 19:16 |
| genii | There are technical problems with booting from a software raid5 which cannot be easily overcome. The main one of which, is the lack of an mbr which can span multiple disks | 19:18 |
| unknown_ | genii: do you think it will be possible to put one more hdd just for grub ? | 19:22 |
| genii | unknown_: Basically what you need is some single disk which allows to install a bootloader onto it's mbr, with a small partition which contains /boot and from there load into your raid5 for / | 19:22 |
| unknown_ | thx genii, i'll try also your suggestion using pendrive as boot device | 19:26 |
| unknown_ | genii: what you think also about installing grub not in MBR but on partition with linux, and use for ex. win$ loader to boot linux ? | 19:40 |
| genii | unknown_: Basically the idea is... you need some working bootstrap on another drive(s) (raid1 works for instance) then in the grub.cfg or menu.lst in there, you specify the UUID of your raid5 as the root partition | 19:42 |
| genii | unknown_: It can even be a floppy disk to boot from | 19:43 |
| unknown_ | thank you again genii, i'll try to do this somehow | 19:43 |

| Fallenou | hi | 21:36 |
| Fallenou | i'm trying to boot the latest Lucid iso with grub2, but i only found config for grub2 which use boot=casper, and i think lucid ISO does not use casper anymore, what should i put instead of "boot=casper" ? | 21:37 |
| Fallenou | i'm using this tutorial : http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/tutoriel/grub2_lancer_des_images_iso (it's in french sorry, but you can find the config i'm using) | 21:38 |
| Fallenou | i think i must replace some parameters because it's not compatible with lucid iso | 21:38 |
| Fallenou | for exemple the vmlinuz file is not in /casper/ but in /install/ | 21:39 |
| charlie-tca | As in #ubuntu-installer? | 21:39 |
| Fallenou | i'm sorry, what ? | 21:39 |
| charlie-tca | Ask in #ubuntu-installer. They are the ones that build the cd | 21:40 |
| Fallenou | ok thank :) | 21:41 |
| charlie-tca | You are welcome | 21:41 |

| mahasamoot | guntbert: thank you... do I need Alternate for LUKS? | 22:03 |
| BUGabundo | its preitier, but not faster | 22:04 |
| guntbert | mahasamoot: no idea - sorry (what is LUKS)? | 22:04 |
| mahasamoot | encryption | 22:04 |
| charlie-tca | You got pretty? mine distorted again | 22:04 |

| CardinalFang | infecto, if it's something that affects few kinds of systems, then you haven't given enough info. If it affects lots of people, then it will be noticed without you. | 22:51 |
| CardinalFang | So, to be useful, tell us more. | 22:51 |

| Fallenou | charlie-tca i noticed you're one of the proprietary graphic driver tester, did you install the daily lucid iso ? | 23:15 |
| charlie-tca | not today | 23:15 |
| charlie-tca | I forgot to run them | 23:16 |
| Fallenou | how would you install them ? burning CD ? | 23:16 |
| Fallenou | i'm trying via grub2 , but i think i must use the daily-live | 23:16 |
| Fallenou | i'm hoping it's ok for the tests | 23:16 |
| Fallenou | i would prefer avoiding burning cd :p | 23:17 |
| charlie-tca | I burn the cd's about 5 times a week | 23:17 |
| Fallenou | wow | 23:18 |
| charlie-tca | But this week, today is the first day we got all the images (Xubuntu, Ubuntu, Server) | 23:18 |
| Fallenou | oh great | 23:18 |
| Fallenou | i think the tests are only to be run on the ubuntu , right ? | 23:18 |
| charlie-tca | You only need one image for video testing. either 64 or 32 bit | 23:19 |
| charlie-tca | Since you are doing a full install, you can use either the alternate or live cd to install from | 23:19 |
| charlie-tca | But you won't be able to run tests from a live environment, as I understand it, because you do have to install the hardware drivers | 23:20 |
| Fallenou | yes sure i will do a full install | 23:20 |
| Fallenou | but i have been told that i cannot boot the alternate iso frmo grub2 | 23:21 |
| Fallenou | it has to be a live | 23:21 |
| Fallenou | to boot via casper | 23:21 |
| Fallenou | is it right ? | 23:21 |
| charlie-tca | ah, I see. That may well be | 23:21 |
| charlie-tca | I don't really know how to do that | 23:21 |
| Fallenou | i mailed ara to ask if it's ok with desktop iso | 23:22 |
| Fallenou | if i do a full install | 23:22 |
| charlie-tca | I think either one is okay, the install ends the same way, right? | 23:26 |
| Fallenou | i guess | 23:29 |
| Fallenou | since it's daily for both, i guess it's just the "install part" that differs | 23:29 |
| Fallenou | but i don't know much | 23:29 |
| charlie-tca | yup, as long as it installs a current image to test the video, it should not make any difference which install medium is used. | 23:30 |
| Fallenou | i hope | 23:31 |

| sarthor | Hi, my karmic updated, i can see the kernel "2.6.31-19" in my /boot/grub/menu.lst, but uname -r shows me "2.6.31-17-generic" | 23:33 |
| ZykoticK9 | sarthor, are you using karmic or lucid? | 23:41 |
| sarthor | karmic | 23:41 |
| sarthor | here is my grub.conf http://pastebin.com/m56658bb6 | 23:41 |
| ZykoticK9 | sarthor, you should probably ask in the #ubuntu channel, #ubuntu+1 is for Lucid support. best of luck. | 23:41 |
| sarthor | ZykoticK9, Ok bro. | 23:42 |
| Fallenou | charlie-tca, i got the answer from ara, we can use the live image, it was written in the FAQ in the wiki page she said | 23:45 |
| charlie-tca | Great! That should make it easier | 23:48 |
| Fallenou | sure | 23:49 |
