jpapertoweluhh, does anyone know how to delete a software raid from the alternate cd? I don't want to have to dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda and wait 9 hours :(00:50
penguin42jpapertowel: That will work, just ctrl-c it after a few seconds - it's the stuff right at the start00:51
jpapertowelpenguin42: yeah, I tried that, lol, both disks say they don't even have a partition table and yet the software raid is still there00:52
penguin42after a reboot? Weird...  And that's on sda itself?00:52
penguin42(You are sure it's sda and you haven't just wiped some random USB key)00:52
jpapertowelpenguin42: absolutely sure00:52
jo-erlendjpapertowel, you just want to remove a disk from an array?00:53
jo-erlendjpapertowel, this seems offtopic for this channel though. I think #ubuntu-server is the correct context for that question.00:53
jpapertoweljo-erlend: I just want to blank the disks like they're new, but the ubuntu installer still claims there's a software raid going on though for some reason and won't even let me create a partition table00:54
jpapertowelfigures i'll try to reboot00:54
jo-erlendjpapertowel, read ubuntu server guide. It will tell you how to remove a disk from an array.00:54
jo-erlendyou should do that with mdadm.00:55
penguin42jpapertowel: So dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sd? bs=1024k count=10   should nuke the start of the disk, do that to both of them, reboot and see if it's still there00:55
penguin42and be careful with that command!00:55

DanaGhmm, perhaps metadata goes in host-protected-area?00:56
DanaGI know on my laptop, the RAID metadata can only be cleared via dmraid utils or via BIOS thingy.00:57
penguin42jpapertowel: That's a good point - is it normal mdraid or is it a software raid controller?00:57
jpapertowelmdadm on a software raid controller00:58

jo-erlendjono, offtopic for this channel, but I just came to think of it. Translations. Should we use launchpad or not? I'm getting so many mixed messages, I haven't done any work on it for a long time, but I really want to.00:59
jonojo-erlend, for translating Ubuntu?00:59
DanaGoh yeah, hdparm -Z00:59
DanaGor was it -z?00:59
jonojo-erlend, I would recommend using LP for translating any app :)00:59
DanaGfor "reread partition table"00:59
jonoRosetta is awesome!00:59
RAOFLaunchpad: Use it as early and as often as possible.01:02
jo-erlendjono, it is. But people are telling me it's wasted. That is won't be used, or it will be used by ubuntu for one release, but not by upstream and so it won't be used in the next ubuntu release, and stuff like that. In any case, I think a message from you to ubuntu-desktop or something, would be nice.01:02
* RAOF is beginning to doubt the wisdom of hot mince pies given 34℃ ambient temperature.01:02
penguin42RAOF: Send the 34c temperature over here please - it's -2c at the moment here01:02
jonojo-erlend, can you give me some specific links to such griping?01:02
jonojo-erlend, we always use translations in Ubuntu01:03
jonoand we ship them across multiple releases01:03
jpapertowelwell, it looks like i have to zero write the whole drive to get rid of this stupid software raid bug01:03
jo-erlendjono, no, because it's a while back. But I've been trying to ask people how to contribute translations, and lots of people are uncertain about this.01:03
jonojo-erlend, can you email David Planella about this?01:03
penguin42jpapertowel: Why?01:03
jo-erlendjono, I don't think I can provide any more information about this than I already have though.01:04
jonojo-erlend, ok01:04
jpapertowelpenguin42: i rebooted and when i got to the partition maker thing, i created a partition table and BAM the stupid software raid swap at the end of the drive reappeared01:04
jpapertowelpenguin42: the installer throws up errors when i try to delete it01:04
penguin42jpapertowel: Ah I see, when you've partitioned, dd over each of the partitions individually before you blat the partition table01:05
penguin42jpapertowel: The problem is as soon as you put the partition table there it can find the old md superblocks01:05
jpapertowelso I have to dd alllllll 4 TB?01:06
penguin42jpapertowel: No!01:06
penguin42jpapertowel: Create your partitions, then dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda1 bs=1024k count=1   then do sda2 etc01:06
jpapertowelpenguin42: okay01:06
jo-erlendjpapertowel, are you in lucid?01:06
jpapertoweljo-erlend: yes01:07
jpapertoweli don't know how to create the partitions01:07
jpapertoweli'm not allowed to create anything with the software raid still in existence01:07
penguin42jpapertowel: Heck then you may as wlel dd the lot - dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sd? bs=1024k will be a lot faster than without the bs01:08
penguin42jpapertowel: It should manage ~100MB/second on a decent drive01:08
jpapertowelit'll be an average of 120MB/s on mine but there's no way i'm waiting 20 or so hours :(01:09
penguin42jpapertowel: OK, do the dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=1024k count=1  and when you create your partitions make them slightly different sizes to what they used to be - that way it won't pick up the old partitions01:10
jpapertowelis there a way i can dd just the last 5 GB of each drive?01:11
penguin42hmm, last 5GB01:11
penguin42well, two ways, if you create a partition 5GB from the end and dd that partition, or dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sd? bs=1024k count=5000ish seek=offset from start in MB01:12
jpapertowelpenguin42: i take that as a no, since i can't create partitions01:13
penguin42jpapertowel: OK, then follow the stuff after the 'or'01:14
jpapertoweltoo much math01:14
* penguin42 would create the partition manually on the command line01:15
jpapertowelwhy isn't there a way to make it not search for it :(01:17
penguin42it's probably just being a bit too smart (file a bug!) - but seriously, easiest fix is just to make the partitions start at a slightly different point01:17
jpapertoweldd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=1024 seek=763084?01:20
penguin421024k more likely - i.e. 1M chunks01:22
jpapertowel1024k invalid argument01:22
penguin421024k works here01:23
jpapertowelnor does 1024000 work01:23
penguin42you must have a typo somewhere else01:25
jpapertowelguarantee you i don't01:25
penguin42guarantee you I've done that loads of times01:25
jpapertowel~ # dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb bs=1024k seek=209190912001:28
jpapertoweldd: /dev/sdb: Invalid argument01:28
jpapertoweloops01:28
jpapertoweli put TB instead of GB01:28
jpapertowelok i cant get this to work so i think i should just go back to windows which seems to have much less bugs than ubuntu01:34
Nitsugajpapertowel, is that some sort of social engineering to make us help you?01:37
AmaranthNitsuga: It always is01:38
penguin42jpapertowel: If you take my one piece of advice to just make the partition sizes slightly different then it will ignore any broken raids - I made that advice about an hour ago now01:38
jpapertowelhow do I make them :(01:38
penguin42jpapertowel: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sd? bs=1024k count=1 for both drives, reboot, then create your partitions - but make them each a bit smaller than you had before01:39
penguin42actually make that count=10 - that'll get rid of anything near the beginning01:39
jpapertoweli tried that the raid crap comes back right after i initialized an msdos table and it won't let me make any partitions at all01:40
Amaranthwhy is there any RAID stuff there at all?01:40
jpapertowelbecause i'm trying to set up software raid0 :/01:40
AntisocheRAID0 ?01:41
jpapertowelit like the disk read/write speed it's good for high disk usage games01:41
Antisocheok.  It also increases the failure rate 100%01:41
jpapertowelwhat's the chance of one of my hard drives failing01:42
penguin42it's pretty common01:42
Nitsugajpapertowel, it's no one of your hard drives01:42
jpapertowellast hard drive i had lasted me 5 years01:42
AntisocheThere are only two types of hard drives: those that have failed and those that will01:43
Nitsugait's ANY cluster of your hard drive01:43
jpapertoweleither way i got my newegg warranty so who cares01:43
Amaranthbackups ftw01:43
AntisocheYeah, newegg isn't going to restore your data.  As long as you only put 'temporary' stuff on it, it's fine.01:43
jpapertowelgoogle stores all my non temporary stuff, i <3 google01:44
AntisocheJust asking to be sure you're doing what you want to do.  RAID0 is great for NLV editing, for example, but RAID1 gives you the same read performance of RAID0 (at the cost of slower writes) but also actual reliability.01:45
jpapertowelthe only thing i care about being reliable is grub01:46
AntisocheYou're making '/' RAID 0?01:46
jpapertowelyeah, but I have a /boot partition outside of raid01:47

metricpianoI'm having a weird video display problem.  Anyone care to run robots and see whether they move smoothly, or the whole board redraws (e.g. all robots disappear and then reappear in their new spot)... it makes the game hard to follow and is most obvious when wait is used)?03:18

h00kIt also makes obsurd claims about the Software Center04:45
om26erh00k, and what's the claim04:47
h00kom26er: from the article linked: When 10.04 releases, the Ubuntu Software Center will finally take over as the sole installation tool for Ubuntu. Synaptic, GDebi, and even the update manager will all be replaced by USC. Hopefully USC will include the ability to install more than one piece of software at a time.04:48
om26erh00k, well that's not gonna happen for Lucid but still software center will be far poweful that before04:48

Ian_Corneyou now left click it and select the preference option in that menu17:08
Ian_Corneso there's less confusion I think17:08
penguin42Ian_Corne: Shrug - doesn't make much difference to me, it does seem to have merged it into a single X client which is probably a benefit17:10
penguin42(although I'm find it's a bit flaky)17:10
Ian_CorneI haven't run into any issues yet17:11
Ian_Cornebut it's not like I extensivly use that applet :p17:11
penguin42Ian_Corne: I'm finding the mute/unmute sometimes seems to stick17:11
Ian_Cornehmm, I haven't noticed that and I actually use that feature alot, in class, out of class17:12
penguin42when you mute is it changing the text to 'unmute all' or leaving it as mute all ?17:13
Ian_Corneunmute all where?17:13
Ian_CorneI don't have any applications running making sound :p17:13
penguin42Ian_Corne: Left button to get menu and then what's the top thing you see?17:13
Ian_CorneJust says unmute17:13
penguin42for me it says 'Mute all'17:13
Ian_Cornehmm17:14
Ian_Cornewell, i'm muted, so mute all would be wrong :p17:14
penguin42right and that's what I'm seeing - it's stuck in 'mute all' irrespective of whether it's muted, before I saw it stick in unmute all17:14

pgoetz Small Lucid server problem, trying to decide if I should report this as a bug:  When the machine boots, it comes up on vt7, which is just a -, since X isn't installed and getty isn't running.  I always have to <Alt>-<F1> to login.  Not a big deal, but can be kind of confusing the first time.19:27

Nitsugazniavre, it happens to me also20:24
Nitsugait crashes when you press the enter key20:24
zniavreyes20:24
Nitsugaif you have autologin that's ery anoying20:24
Nitsugabecause 4 example you start firefox, type a url, press enter and it crashes20:25
NitsugaI think it has to do with plymouth20:25
pgoetzZykoticK9, on further research I'm not sure this is a gdm bug, but rather a problem with the default upstart configuration files20:25
Nitsugabecause before xserver crashes all the ttys are frozen/black20:25
zniavrethere is a bug report on this problem ?20:26
Nitsugapgoetz, I think it has to do with plymouth on non-KMS hardware20:26
Nitsugai didin't file any20:26
zniavreim not good enough in english to try to fil one bug it looks too "technical" to just say gdm crashes at first try20:27
ZykoticK9pgoetz, that's quite possible - i certainly have no idea what the cause is.  I was just seeing if my Karmic method of disabling GDM worked in Lucid - which it does, minus this small "bug" regarding what vt shows up by default.20:29
zniavrethat s true startx works as a charm with no crash after that20:30
pgoetznitsuga, what do you mean by non-KMS hardware?20:31
ZykoticK9zniavre, Nitsuga i've notied the Enter on my number pad does not have the same effect.  I still have to use alt+sysrq+k most times when i log in mind you.  Just wanted to point out the Enter weirdness20:33
Nitsugapgoetz, thinks like a nvidia card that doesn0t suppor KMS20:34

Nitsugapgoetz, I think it is a plymouth problem because with plymouth uninstalled the issue is not present20:46
pgoetzI think I got sucked into the wrong bug discussion -- my problem is that a system without any xserver installed still defaults to vt7, which only has a flashing "-"  since getty only runs on vt1-6.  I think this is an Upstart problem20:47
