[00:00] My machine hangs on gdm login in alpha 3. I just report this as a bug right? [00:02] Hillshum: does it hang right after you press the enter key to log in? [00:02] rww: No, it makes it through most of the sound, then repeats the last second or so a few times, then stops [00:05] What package should I file a bug against? [00:05] Hillshum: which sound? the one you get when gdm starts (before login) or the one when gnome starts (after login)? [00:06] rww: The longer one that plays after login [00:06] hmm, so it's probably not gdm itself [00:09] Hillshum: I'm not sure. The #ubuntu-bugs people might know [00:15] anyone able to get lucid-netbook-i386.iso to boot from a usb on a netbook [00:17] I got it to boot on a normal laptop [00:18] Hillshum ok. [00:19] i tried my netbook but it just moves right past it on to grub (have lunix already installed) [00:20] tried using startup disk creator on lucid desktop but it balks, im not able to get it to work no matter what i do to the stick. [00:21] i know the lucid usb startup works though i used it to make a lucid 10.4 startup. [00:21] oh well if i get really desperate i guess i can put it on a cd later. [00:27] wirechief, your BIOS boot sequence needs to br modified to look at the USB drive first , usually listed as removeable device [00:28] wirechief, i assume you did that already , but i have to mention the obvious [00:29] hey guys... i have noticed something unusual with lucid that has never happened with any version in the past...on a sugle hard drive system it installs fine no issues...however on my dual hard drive system...the consistently asks whch drive I want the bootloader to be installed with..and no matter which I choose it fails...I brought this up once before [00:29] why is it even asking me? and why doesnt it install to the drive that ubuntu is being installed on? [00:30] booboo, I think the fact that it asks has been fixed, what error does it give when it fails? [00:31] Jordan_U, none it just doesnt boot at all [00:31] booboo, What happens when you try to boot? [00:31] Jordan_U, gets to grub menu...choose lucid blank screen [00:31] rww: Should I pour over the logs left after the hang? [00:32] Jordan_U, or no menu at all and black screen [00:32] Jordan_U, i am reinstalling lucid now on that system but it hasne gotten to that choice area yet [00:33] Jordan_U, I will have to burn a new disk then if that has been fixed [00:34] BluesKaj-Laptop: nope thats not my issue, i have two distros already installed and working on that netbook but thanks for asking. [00:34] booboo, I'm not sure if the fix is in an alpha yet. [00:35] wirechief, yeah, I should have read your earlier mention about the problematic stick [00:35] booboo, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+source/base-installer/+bug/526422 ( when launchpad comes back up ) [00:35] Jordan_U, ah ok [00:35] BluesKaj-Laptop: although i am curious why the lucid install is not able to create a bootable usb from the one i was using. [00:35] Launchpad bug 526422 in xserver-xorg-video-nouveau "Grub installer asks too many questions to the user" [Undecided,Confirmed] [00:36] BluesKaj-Laptop: i am sure that sdf and sdf1 are clean and formatted fat32, its a 4gb stick and it had 9.10 remix on it (not anymore) [00:36] Jordan_U, well apparenlty it has installed this time...installed lucid to one driver...karmic to the other...boot failed...reinstall lucid and it boots now...interesting [00:37] Jordan_U, oh you know what ...i think that choice area comes with dist upgrade [00:37] Jordan_U, so I will do that now and see if it asks again. [00:38] BluesKaj-Laptop: i am not sure if a simple dd of the iso to the stick would work either (havent tried unetbooten) [00:38] be back after that :) if it fails i will try another distribution on that disk and leave karmic on the other [00:40] booboo, On upgrades you *should* be asked what drive to install grub to because in karmic the drives were stored like "/dev/sda", which can change if you add / remove drives. In lucid /dev/disk/-by-id/ will be used instead but user input is required for the transition if it's non-trivial. [00:42] Jordan_U, well this isnt an upgrade to lucid...karmic has it';s own drive as does lucid [00:43] yet it still asks or suspect it will with the updates [00:47] rather newbieish question, but if i install the alpha, it should eventually update itself to the release version, right? [00:47] faileas: yes [00:47] it would be better if you were more proactive about updating, but yes. [00:47] oh, i will be ;p [00:48] Does anybody else have what looks a lot like Tamil has some of the category descriptions in Software Centre? [00:48] s/has/as/ [00:49] wgrant: confirmed [00:50] Ah, good, so I'm not actually crazy. [00:50] I wouldn't go that far for myself :-) [00:50] I wonder if it's a test of some kind. [00:58] Hey guys is there a way to get flash working in 10.04 [00:58] I have not flash in firefox or chrome after the upgrade to 10.04 [00:58] wirechief, this is the procedure i followed to install with a USB drive , http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-ubuntu-linux-from-usb-stick.html [01:05] Hey guys.. Is the Dust theme broken for other people after the last few days updates? [01:07] usb drives not automounting anymore......is this due to removal of HAL? [01:09] There has been news that Lucid supports iPhone now.. Trying to figure this out [01:13] vbabiy, did you try reinstalling ubuntu-restricted-extras? [01:13] booboo, yeah that fix it [01:13] cool :) [01:14] my last issue is the 10.04 broke the mike on the Dell xps 1530 [01:14] mic [01:24] hi all. other then video card type+lucidy alpha 3, what other details are needed/could be provided in bugs about black screen of nothingness? (screen goes black after selecting the language) [01:24] i don't see any obviuos bugs on this subject :/ [01:25] Package sun-java6-jdk is not available, but is referred to by another package. [01:25] anyone an idea? [01:27] Ian_Corne: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=sun-java6-jdk&searchon=names&suite=lucid§ion=all its not in lucid. === nhandler_ is now known as nhandler [01:29] * itshare gets trapped in the f6 menu [01:31] weird?? [01:31] Ian_Corne: that its removed? [01:35] wait... a grub bug is a bug in nouveau drivers? [01:35] that makes absolutely no sense. [01:35] s/a grub bug/that grub bug/ [01:39] is there a way to boot up disabling aiglx in xorg? [01:46] interesting... gnome-settings-daemon now understands touchpad-toggle hotkey. [01:46] Unfortunately, the only thing notify-osd displays is: [01:46] ... well, something that looks like a smudgy vertical ellipsis. [01:47] .... -- but 4 rows, instead of 4 columns. [01:48] loading icon 'notification-touchpad-enabled' caused error: 'Icon 'notification-touchpad-enabled' not present in theme' === vbabiy_ is now known as vbabiy [02:09] Ok, plymouth is very broken with official nvidia drivers [02:09] It looked great with nouveau [02:09] not merely broken but very much so [02:09] Yeah [02:09] http://www.techeye.net/software/amd-and-nvidia-bitchfight-over-open-source-support [02:09] nice headline. [02:09] old news, though. [02:09] nvidia does not produce a kms driver [02:09] Is there a way to remove it without causing issues? [02:10] so plymouth is useless [02:10] bjsnider, yeah, I know... I'm dual booting gentoo as well [02:10] gentoo? [02:10] never heard of it [02:10] bjsnider, the opposite of ubuntu [02:11] the opposite [02:11] You compile everything [02:11] Nothing works without configuring... for the most part [02:11] And you can choose what support to compile in [02:11] so, it doesn't work, has no user participation, has moronic devs, and years in between releases i guess [02:11] bjsnider, what does? [02:11] gentoo? [02:11] if it's the opposite of ubuntu [02:12] Well, not quite [02:13] It works if you set it up right. It has plenty of user participation. It's devs, while they do bicker, are quite smart, and it's a rolling release. [02:13] The only thing I see as "not user participation" is notify-osd. [02:13] i don't think "it works" should need a qualifier [02:13] Plenty of flames have flown around about that one. [02:14] bjsnider, well, if you want it set up right, it's fine with a qualifier [02:14] Anyway, how can I get rid of plymouth? [02:14] that needed a qualifier too [02:14] Ok, ok [02:14] Enough [02:15] Removing plymouth doesn't break anything? [02:15] just uninstall the plymouth package [02:15] Ok [02:15] I'm used to uninstalling something and having something else break in ubuntu. [02:15] This is the most stable ubuntu alpha I've used in a long time. [02:18] plymouth gives a nice looking password prompt when u have encrypted root, to bad there is no oskb like onBoard for it. [02:29] DanaG, it looks like bridgman says that in 2 or 3 months the radeon driver will have full 2d and 3d support [02:30] Actually, it already is pretty durn close. [02:30] The last big blocker for me is that Radeon KMS eats watts like crazy. [02:39] DanaG, haven't they been saying 2 or 3 months for 2 or 3 years? [02:39] naw, I think it's been "a few months until" different things. [02:39] there was gradual development of 2d and 3d and all that. [02:39] As it is, even Nexuiz, with GLSL enabled, works pretty dang well. [02:40] Only works well under KMS, though. [02:46] Hiya gang. [02:47] Anyone know how to resolve a problem where the EDID of my monitor is no always detected properly? I have an ATI Radeon HD 3200 on my motherboard and a 22" LCD using the VGA connector via a KVM and the resolution doesn't always come up right. [02:49] DSpair if you use the DVI cable it should make things work better than the vga cable connected, i had trouble with detection on my emachine until i used one. [02:49] wirechief: Yes, but that would preclude using the KVM. [02:50] Second issue. How do I get to the GRUB menu when booting up in order to change the boot command line? [02:50] DSpair: hold down shift [02:50] hit letter e then navigate to the section you want [02:50] arand: When is says "GRUB loading"? Hit shift? [02:51] i wait until the screen i complete then hit e [02:51] DSpair: Think you can hold it down earlier [02:51] havent used shift to edit any. [02:51] wirechief: I don't get a menu at all. It goes straight from "GRUB loading" to the Ubuntu splash screen. [02:52] shift to get to the menu, e to edit entries [02:52] I'm trying to get more details on a bug I filed about LVM and the document I was sent requires me to modify the boot command. [02:52] arand: Thanks much! [02:52] hmm thats not right, its not giving you a chance to even test the media [02:52] BBIAB. Gonna try that. [02:52] wirechief: Not booting from the CD. After install. [02:53] Anyhow, BRB [02:55] OK, Booting now. [02:56] arand: Thanks for the "SHIFT" key tip. That worked perfectly. [03:08] Well, the debugging doc that the team sent me doesn't work on Lucid. [03:11] Hey guys, anyone else having issues with the Dust Theme after yesterday's update? [03:11] mjs72311: Nope. [03:11] Oh, wait. I don't use Dust. [03:12] :) [03:12] lol [03:12] Check the dust theme, see if the left and right sides are all foobar'ed [03:12] Anyone know how to set the default boot option in GRUB on Lucid? There's no menu.lst that I can find. [03:12] DSpair, Yea, I found it the other day, 2 sec.. [03:13] mjs72311: Thanks much! [03:13] you're using Grub2, right? [03:13] Whatever the default is on Lucid [03:15] 2 sec, I need to re-find the setting [03:15] mjs72311: No worries. I appreciate the help. I searched around for some time earlier without much luck. [03:16] ok.. [03:17] from here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#grub (/etc/default/grub) [03:17] edit the file /etc/default/grub [03:17] and change the line: GRUB_DEFAULT=0 to GRUB_DEFAULT=saved [03:18] then it will just remember the last selection you choose [03:18] Thanks! [03:18] then you need to run a command to compile the changes in to the real grub [03:18] thats the command: update-grub [03:19] grub2 is so confusing compare to the old one.. [03:20] To some extent, tis all apples and oranges to some extent... [03:22] so I installed KDE 4.4 yet again, tried to like it, could not stand it :( [03:22] arand: But there is something to be said for consistency. [03:24] Does anyone know how to determine start order for upstart jobs? [03:24] I want to set up a job to mount an LVM2 volume just before gdm starts. [03:25] I always setup my mounts in fstab, is that too late? [03:25] mjs72311: Problem is that LVM2 is not getting mounted properly by fstab and is hanging up the boot. [03:25] If I set "noauto" on the home dir, I can mount it manually after boot just fine. [03:26] ick, you've reached the end of my knowledge on the subject tho. :-P [03:29] how to upgrade to 10.04 alpha 3 from 9.10 i ahve downlaoded iso i386 helpppp [03:30] how to upgrade to 10.04 alpha 3 from 9.10 i ahve downlaoded iso i386 helpppp [03:31] sudo do-release-upgrade -d [03:31] you can't use desktop livecds to upgrade. [03:32] joppan_, you can do it thru the terminal sudo do-release-upgraqde -d [03:32] er upgrade [03:32] can i use the downloaded source while after running the command ..else i will to downlaod 678M which will take 21 hours with my connection [03:32] what;s the diff between "sudo update-manager -d" and "sudo do-release-upgrade -d"? [03:33] teethdood: the first is graphical, the second is terminal-based [03:33] joppan_: not if it's a livecd, no [03:33] and update-manager is flaky [03:33] k [03:34] rww: k [03:34] rww: so only i can do a fresh install rite [03:34] will ahve to wait till 29th april for final release of 10.04 lucid lynx rite [03:34] joppan_: what's the name of the iso file you downloaded? [03:36] rww: lucid-desktoplucid-desktop-i386.iso [03:36] rww: lucid-desktop-i386.iso [03:36] joppan_: you could use that ISO to do a fresh install of lucid. You can't use it to upgrade from 9.10 to lucid. [03:36] joppan_, open the terminal and do what rww and i have already told you to do, sudo do release-upgrade -d [03:37] can someone on lucid help me test if a bug fix upstream has made it in? [03:37] joppan_, that command will upgrade your 9.10 to 10.04 [03:37] try to add http://noagenda.podshow.com/feed as a podcast feed and let me know if rhythmbox parses in properly [03:38] BluesKaj: but my conn speed is very low 10KB/s ...it took 20.5 hours to downlod the iso ... [03:39] BluesKaj: Checking for a new ubuntu release [03:39] Done Upgrade tool signature [03:39] Done Upgrade tools 9s [03:39] Done downloading [03:39] extracting 'lucid.tar.gz' [03:39] authenticate 'lucid.tar.gz' against 'lucid.tar.gz.gpg' [03:39] Reading cache [03:39] Checking package manager [03:39] Reading package lists: Done [03:39] joppan_, you won't be downloading files that are that large if you just upgrade [03:39] Reading state information: Done [03:39] Reading state information: Done [03:39] Reading state information: Done [03:39] BluesKaj: this is what is current state [03:39] !pastebin | joppan_ [03:39] joppan_: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://tinyurl.com/imagebin | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. [03:40] BluesKaj: k [03:40] BluesKaj: upgrading from karmic to lucid? yes you would. [03:40] rww, sssshhhh [03:41] Upgrading requires ~4GB of space... [03:41] he can't use the iso unless he clean installs [03:42] he could install to / and the use the manual partition option ...it will save his default apps and config settings [03:42] and config settings for apps that need reinstalling [03:44] joppan_, do understand what i just wrote ? [03:44] BluesKaj: hello i have partion for / ,/boot,/home,/var,/tmp,swap now how to preserve /home ....but am not able to know which /dev/sdax is home [03:44] "You have to download a total of 623M. This download will take about 13 minutes with your connection." :S [03:45] My TV comes tomorrow, and it'll be running Ubuntu most of the time to watch movies. :-D [03:45] joppan_: If you type "mount" in your Karmic's terminal, it should have a line that says "/dev/sdxy on /home" [03:46] speaking of watching movies in ubuntu, 1080P movies stutter bad, while win xp runs them just fine (intel GMA graphics) [03:47] joppan_, use the live cd and install to / , then use the manaul partition option , when the guide asks to format choose "no" , then proceed with the rest of the install [03:47] teethdood, I assume you tried a few different players? [03:48] mjs72311: totem, mplayer and vlc [03:48] teethdood, if not.. I never had any issues with VLC in my experiance.. but I don't run alot of 1080p videos [03:48] teethdood, Alright.. dunno what to tell ya then.. :) [03:48] use a mac? :-D [03:48] sorry, didn't mean to burn.. :-P [03:48] mjs72311: heh. It might be because my TV is 720p and the movie is 1080p. downscaling issues? [03:49] teethdood, I assume the downscaling happens in elsewhere.. what are you using to connect the PC to the TV? [03:50] but the thing is win xp handles the same thing just fine. Pisses me off cuz I don't ever use xp [03:50] except to sync my stupid iphone [03:50] mjs72311: VGA out from laptop [03:51] thats an analog signal.. [03:52] I wouldn't think its downscaling [03:52] probably just a lot to render for your pc [03:53] the question remains, how come win xp renders it just fine? this on top of running antivirus etc [03:54] hmm. the plymouth bug is wierd. [03:55] it gets stuck on the load screen until you use another VT [03:55] rww: k [03:56] rww: /home on sda10 as per output from /etc/mtab [03:58] BluesKaj: k [03:58] i will do [04:25] anybody else find their network is gone after resume from hibernate? [04:35] hmm, I find my network is gone after a failed resume and then a reboot. [04:35] It makes remote connection a royal pain in the ... er, network card? [04:39] well I get it most of the time on success resume so I filed a bug [04:41] DSpair, You should also set "GRUB_SAVEDEFAULT=true" ( GRUB_DEFAULT=saved alone will only work until grub 1.98 final is packaged ) [04:51] Anyone having any luck with Ubuntu and iPhone.. I see it all over the blogosphere. [04:51] Not working for me [05:41] Hi guys, I'm having issues with network-manager-vpnc not wanting to connect to a vpn that requires a rootcert, any ideas? [05:42] Steil: i think vpnc is the cisco vpn [05:42] espen77: yes [05:42] What version of gnome will 10.04 have? [05:42] perscitus, 2.30 [05:43] oh good. no gnome-shell crap then [05:44] gnome 3.0 and gnome-shell will be one giant leap (understatement) for gnome development [05:44] backwards* [05:45] perscitus: It will be easily installable for testing, but not default no. [05:45] Steil: sorry, i havent any experience with vpn, nust know there is vpnc and openconnect for Cisco [05:46] perscitus: All a matter of preference... [05:46] arand, I would bet you on that [05:46] !info gnome-shell lucid [05:46] espen77: thanks, yeah i can use the command line vpnc but i can't use the network-manager frontend [05:46] gnome-shell (source: gnome-shell): graphical shell for the GNOME desktop. In component universe, is extra. Version 2.28.1~git20091125-1 (lucid), package size 445 kB, installed size 1596 kB [05:48] perscitus: I quite like it, and with some finishing I'd say it's a viable replacement. [05:49] arand, The moment gnome-shell becomes part of gnome, is there day i use kde. end of story. [05:49] I'm probably not the only ones too [05:49] Steil: you have both network-manager-{vpnc,vpnc-gnome} installed? [05:50] perscitus: dito when kde4 came along, it's always going to be a rough start, and eveyone hates change anyways... [05:50] yes [05:51] i just need to know how to enable rootcertificate [05:51] arand, except this change in gnome decrases usability [05:52] perscitus: your opinion :) [05:53] arand, wanna bet? [05:55] perscitus: safe bet, I know my opinion :) But yes, of course loads of people are going to hate it, there's no denying that, and in the first releases it might not be useful at all, but I still think the overall direction of it is not inherently bad. [06:07] arand, I just tried gnome-shell and i stand by my original opinion [06:11] arand, and there is difference between kde 3 -> 4 and gnome 2 to 3 [06:21] perscitus: Also, gnomes will be gnomes, they make a lot of (in many's opinion) stupid decisions and changes, but I've come to the conclusion that if I'm gonna care about every little thing they do wrong I will sooner or later get a nervous breakdown, there is always kde, openbox, gnome-legacy, etc. If gnome3 does in the end turn out to be crap, well so be it, it's gnome wasting time, not me. [06:36] there is allways mwm if gnome3 is to bad :P (http://xwinman.org/screenshots/mwm-tomp.gif) [06:37] arand, KDE is professional [07:00] I'm so happy with Lucid Lynx, can't wait for it to be relased \o/ [07:03] saxin, 59 days and counting ;) [07:04] Nice :) [07:08] hey, can anyone confirm ALT + "t" opening a terminal window is default/ expected behaviour in lucid? === holstein is now known as Arnie_Zoo === Arnie_Zoo is now known as holstein [07:09] or where I could find out? [07:12] kermiac, alt+t does open a terminal on my gnome+compiz 'somewhat' default Lucid [07:13] ty ZykoticK9 :) [07:15] ZykoticK9: do you happen to have ati graphics? [07:16] kermiac: I thought it was ctrl+alt+t? [07:16] kermiac, I'm sorry - but NO way. I avoid ati like the plague. [07:16] or did it chanfe? [07:17] ZykoticK9: I don't blame you - wise decision :) [07:17] arand, kermiac ctrl+alt+t does nothing here? [07:17] arand: that's what I was wondering too [07:17] would it be in metacity changelogs maybe? [07:18] or does some other package handle default shortcut keys? [07:21] kermiac, if you are using gnome, compiz or metacity makes no difference on my system - alt+t opens a terminal either way [07:21] hmm... http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/m/metacity/metacity_2.28.1-0ubuntu2/changelog says CTRL+ALT+T [07:23] kermiac, System / Prefs / Keyboard Shortcuts -- under Desktop find Open a terminal window -- mine shows Alt+T [07:25] kermiac, my system was last updated 7 hrs ago - but i do have some updates, i'll see if it's the same after [07:27] ZykoticK9: yes, mine says ALT+T too [07:29] kermiac, no change after updates (but can't log out right now so not really a good test). Does the alt+t work on your system? [07:30] I just finished doing updates now & rebooted but no change [07:30] yes, ALT+T works (and is set in keyboard shortcuts) on my lucid box [07:31] CTRL+ALT+T does nothing - still looking into exactly what package handles the keyboard shortcuts [07:32] * kermiac is confused [07:35] the keyboard shortcuts has is mapped as ctrl+alt+t , but that does nothing , only alt+t opens a terminal [07:36] s/is/it [07:50] in USC i like the "Provided by Ubuntu", with other repos listed beneath it's a cool feature really. is there a way to add PPAs to this list as well? side note: the inability to get more information about a package from within USC is a major failing of this interface right now. [07:57] does dgm2setup works on Lucid? [08:18] I have Lucid installed on a laptop and the screen goes blank while booting. I don't think it boots at all. How can I resolve this? [08:20] The displays turns off completely, the power/num lock/touchpad lights stay on and the HDD activity light stays off [08:21] I'm rolling a Lucid-based kiosk system, with a cut-down X session. Which (if any) notification-daemon implementations will work without a WM that implements the FDO systray? [08:27] Never mind, I can just use Ratpoison's :echo command with a really big font. Quick and dirty and fugly. Whee! [08:29] FWIW, I'm experiencing serious trouble with Thunderbird on a dual screen setup with compositing active. Turning off compositing seems to get Thunderbird back to normal. Symptom is missing paint events/updates. [08:38] Ryan1: try and then or try holdin shift when the grub line shows and choose another kernel [08:41] bom d|a [08:53] Ctrl + Alt + F1 didn't do anything, but I fixed it by booting to a root console and installing updates [08:54] I didn't have any other kernels because it was installed from alpha 3 [08:56] ZykoticK9: you still around? [08:56] kermiac, ya, what's up? [08:56] can you please "me too" bug 529852? [08:56] Launchpad bug 529852 in compiz "T opens up terminal, even though I haven't assigned it anywhere" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/529852 [08:58] kermiac, i'm affraid i don't see a bug there - i see working as designed - it's set in my keyboard preferences to open a terminal, and it does. [08:59] ok nvm... it is actually a bug. CTRL+ALT+T should open terminal, not ALT+T... but that's ok [08:59] compiz is doing weird things to metacity keybindings [09:00] i could certainly see there being overlaps between the two [09:00] ok, fair enough... np ZykoticK9 :) [09:04] i am on ubuntu 9.04 was using 8.x, after this , transimssion sucks. did htye put an old version in there? [09:04] i dont have that activity chart with all those blue blocks? http://www.transmissionbt.com/help/gtk/1.5x/gfx/inspector.jpg [09:05] meatbun, if you are using 9.04 repeat your question in Ubuntu support channel #ubuntu (this channel is for Lucid 10.04 support) [09:06] ZykoticK9: i did no one knows [09:06] developers should keep in mind when they upgrade the distro, they should keep the old app as is [09:07] !info transmission-gtk hardy [09:07] !info transmission-gtk karmic [09:07] transmission-gtk (source: transmission): free, lightweight BitTorrent client (graphical interface).

[09:07] i am frustrated!!!! [09:07] I guess that's a "no". [09:07] not just transmission, but tac plus and other apps [09:08] and god know which was didn't work [09:09] *fucking it*!!!

If yes - do you experience random issue with "Waiting for /home [SM]" displayed in plymouth for quite some time and then it launches gdm w/o /home mounted? [09:47] hello cn anybody talk to me about ubuntu and eeepc ? [09:58] I would like to try out 10.04.. how would I go about this? is there a minimal CD release? [09:59] neil_d: define "minimal" [09:59] rww: a small <100MB iso image that install ubuntu via the internet. [10:00] neil_d: 32-bit: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/lucid/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/mini.iso | 64-bit: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/lucid/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/mini.iso [10:02] rww: does that install 9.10 or 10.4? [10:02] neil_d: 10.04 [10:02] hence the "lucid" [10:03] rww: great.. I was wondering what 'current' meant in the link. [11:07] hi all. are universe packages allowed in ubuntu install cds these days? [11:08] i'm specificaly wondering if theres a chance usb-modeswitcher can be included [11:10] Kamping_Kaiser: have you read the discussion on ubuntu-devel-discuss ? [11:26] arand: no. i don't follow ubuntu lists anymore. roughly howlong ago should i be looking in the archive? [11:28] 01/03/10 10:17, but there seems to ahve been rpevious discussions which was taken up again. [11:28] Kamping_Kaiser: So fairly new [11:29] arand: thanks, I'll check the archive :) [11:30] are you indicating the month is january or march? [11:30] Kamping_Kaiser: summary It seems more prudent to me to simply document that if your card isn't [11:30] > supported by Lucid OOTB, you may install the unsupported usb-modeswitch [11:30] > package from universe. Then work on having that be the sole supported [11:30] > option for lucid+1 [11:31] ta. shame it'll miss the lts :( guess we'll be installing it after install for the next few years [11:31] Kamping_Kaiser: hrm, more spammy then intended ↑ But that kind of seems to be the gist of it jaunuary as in yesterday, yes. Hence why I remebered it clearly ;) [11:33] cheers. found it in the archive :) [11:41] hiiii :) [11:41] im updating my 9.10 to 10.04 anyone have problem with this? [11:50] several [11:51] display turning completely WHITE in recovery mode, latest alpha.. what could cause that? [11:51] computer seems to bootup just fine [12:03] anyone prefer netbootin over usb-creator besides myself ? [12:04] usb-creator seems not to work very well [12:15] wirechief: i have never managed to make a bootable usbstick with usb creator [12:17] Yaroze sounds like its broken in some manner. I was debating filing a bug but not sure, sometimes sticks get ugly, i have used mkidosfs to clear the mbr and sdb1 to no avail. [12:18] then tried unetbootin and after reformating and doing the mkidosfs it worked. im not impressed. [12:19] http://85.227.171.126/white.3gp <-- my problem at bootup if anyone is interested [12:21] Yaroze why are you putting up a binary / [12:21]
