sbeattiemvo: hrm, upgrade from hardy is failing, complaining about an unresolvable problem trying to install the blacklisted package openoffice.org-filter-binfilter07:56
mvosbeattie: ha! good07:56
mvobug #51672707:56
ubot4Launchpad bug 516727 in openoffice.org (Debian) (and 4 other projects) "breaks dist-upgrade: E: Couldn't configure pre-depend openoffice.org-core for openoffice.org-filter-binfilter, probably a dependency cycle. (affects: 11)" [Unknown,Unknown] https://launchpad.net/bugs/51672707:56
mvosbeattie: the workaround is to remove openoffice.org-filter-binfilter, a new OOo upload will fix it after beta-107:56
sbeattieokay, thanks, will workaround. Your blacklist works. :-)07:57
mvoyeah, in this case a early abort is better07:58

persiaPetrolCB: In preparation for the Beta release, the current focus is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/ISO09:35
persiaPetrolCB: The basic procedures are outlined at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/ISO/Procedures09:36
PetrolCBpersia: heh, that someone turned out to be you :) thanks, I'll get right on it09:38
persiaPetrolCB: Thanks for the help.09:38
mvosbeattie: could you please attach your original /var/lib/dpkg/status (if that is still available from a backup?)09:44
sbeattiemvo: from before the upgrade? Hrm, I don't think I have it, sorry; but I'll start capturing /etc/ before upgrade tests.09:46
sbeattiemvo: for background, the system was installed from dapper to hardy, then hardy to lucid.09:46
sbeattiebefore upgrading to hardy, I installed the binary packages that are still supported under dapper.09:47
mvosbeattie: thanks, I think its "just" a bug in initramfs-tools/module-init-tools09:47
mvoinitially I got 10 new gray hairs because I thought that the ordering of the dpkg runs was wrong, but it turns out its actually a trigger for initramfs fialing09:48

shadeslayeri used zsync to update my alpha iso to the latest daily...i guess im all set to go?12:09
davmor2shadeslayer: the tests can be located here http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com you'll need to sign up for an account and then away you go12:10

shadeslayerdavmor2: ok one last thing,should i expect plymouth to start without graphics card drivers?12:12
shadeslayeri heard the open source nvidia drivers are default now12:12
davmor2if x is started then plymouth will work the drivers are in the kernel12:13
persiaHrm?12:13
persiaIf there are no kms drivers, plymouth will just use text mode.12:14
shadeslayerpersia: okies12:14
persiaThat's independent of whether X has drivers (although this only matters for corner-case hardware)12:14

charlie-tca__upgrading with hardware drivers installed; the upgrade does not remove the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, and the monitor shuts down during the boot.16:41
charlie-tca__The system autologs in to the desktop, but the monitor is off so the user doesn't know it.16:42
charlie-tca__removing the file lets the gdm come up and it works correctly16:42
aracharlie-tca__, nvidia?16:42
charlie-tca__yup16:42
charlie-tca__known?16:43
charlie-tca__Isn't that a security violation?16:43
charlie-tca__It only does auto-logins as long as the monitor is shut off16:44
charlie-tca__maybe it isn't logging in, I'm just confused...16:45
charlie-tca__Okay, this is bad. I added tomboy, then ran updates. It removed tomboy again16:47
arahow do you know is it logged in?16:53
charlie-tca__That is what makes me think I got confused. I ssh'd in and it goes to my /home directory. But I don't think it needs to log in to do that, right?16:57
aracharlie-tca__, right16:58
