| hookworm24 | likemindead, no, Just xubuntu. I went back down to the previous kernel and it is able to boot now. | 00:08 |
|---|---|---|
| likemindead | Good! | 00:08 |
| likemindead | I'd give it a "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" for good measure. | 00:08 |
| hookworm24 | likemindead, i have removed the new kernel for the time being so i can use my machine. Another dude in #ubuntu had the same problem with his dell laptop. | 00:10 |
| likemindead | Bummer. | 00:10 |
| charlie-tca | did anyone file a bug for it? | 00:10 |
| hookworm24 | not sure what that is/how to do it | 00:10 |
| likemindead | Glad you've got it sorted. You should file a bug and post your experience to the forum. | 00:10 |
| charlie-tca | file a bug - ubuntu-bug linux | 00:11 |
| hookworm24 | random question: I installed ubuntu netbook remix 9.10 on my machine when it came out. then decided i wanted to use xfce, so i installed that over top of whatever was there before. would i benefit from removing everything and installing from a pure xubuntu iso? or would it be the same? | 00:16 |
| charlie-tca | don't know. Never looked at netbook remix | 00:16 |
| hookworm24 | oh | 00:17 |
| hookworm24 | when i was doing the dist. upgrade, i noticed a whole bunch of gnome packages being downloaded and installed....and i'm pretty sure i'm not using any of them | 00:18 |
| hookworm24 | what's up with that? | 00:18 |
| charlie-tca | xubuntu does use some of the gnome packages | 00:18 |
| hookworm24 | oh | 00:19 |
| hookworm24 | good to know | 00:19 |
| charlie-tca | We use whatever is easiest for us to maintain, if it works the best for Xubuntu | 00:19 |
| hookworm24 | That makes sense.... | 00:19 |
| charlie-tca | the name 'gnome' does not mean the software is not the best or lightweight. It simply means the developer of the application used gnome in the name. | 00:20 |
| Aquina | Has someone of you experience with Intel? | 00:22 |
| charlie-tca | Not me, I threw the intel motherboard away | 00:22 |
| Aquina | I mean from an working point of view not regarding the products. | 00:22 |
| * charlie-tca has no working experience with intel, either. | 00:23 | |
| Aquina | ok, thx :-) | 00:23 |
| charlie-tca | Maybe hang around, see if someone has any | 00:23 |
| Aquina | sure I will. :-) | 00:24 |
| Aquina | charlie-tca, when is the next IOS rebuild and what was the birthdayparty like (the one you went to two weeks ago)? | 00:25 |
| Aquina | (iso) | 00:25 |
| charlie-tca | The iso's should be ready to test around the 31st of May, with Alpha1 due out June 3 | 00:26 |
| charlie-tca | the birthday I can't actually remember. I tend to block what I don't need anymore | 00:26 |
| Aquina | huh? Wasn't it your grandson (I mean the son of your son)? :-/ | 00:27 |
| charlie-tca | But it is not necessary to remember it after it is over. I have enough to try to remember with a bad memory. | 00:28 |
| charlie-tca | Now that you mention it, I think it was my grandson's party | 00:28 |
| Aquina | Your memory has become bad over time? Really? | 00:29 |
| charlie-tca | yeah, I used to be able to recall almost anything, now I do good to remember things from day to day | 00:30 |
| charlie-tca | Isn't that why they make calendar programs? | 00:30 |
| Aquina | :-/ | 00:30 |
| Aquina | Will your memory at least stay that way? | 00:31 |
| charlie-tca | We can hope | 00:31 |
| charlie-tca | but I keep a calendar, both written and on the computer. That works for me | 00:32 |
| _Techie_ | Aquina, you were looking for someone with experience with Intel? | 00:34 |
| Aquina | yes | 00:41 |
| _Techie_ | what exactly was it you were wanting to know, ill have an ask around | 00:41 |
| Aquina | They made men an offer. I heard 'things' about Intel though and so I'd like to hear an insider opinion. | 00:42 |
| Aquina | (me an offer) | 00:42 |
| _Techie_ | i figured | 00:42 |
| Aquina | :-) | 00:43 |
| _Techie_ | so what should i be asking | 00:44 |
| Aquina | I see, charlie. | 00:44 |
| Aquina | It's not so much a specific question (except the usual like payment and how much they care) but rather a ggeneral statement and experiences I'd like to hear (e.g. ones pros and cons/whatever comes into that persons mind first). | 00:45 |
| Aquina | Also things to watch out for, what's important for the Intel administration, etc. | 00:46 |
| _Techie_ | so was this offer to do with employment with them, or distribution or something else | 00:47 |
| Aquina | employment | 00:49 |
| _Techie_ | i see | 00:49 |
| _Techie_ | anyway, im gonna head into town | 00:53 |
| _Techie_ | ill have a good think and see if theres anyone i can ask for ya Aquina | 00:54 |
| _Techie_ | anyway, catcha later | 00:54 |
| Aquina | :-) | 00:59 |

| slimjimflim | my 10.04 goes in to some sort of panic mode switching between ttys...can't get out of it | 04:41 |
| slimjimflim | it's happened about 4 times since i did dist upgrade | 04:42 |
| slimjimflim | one screen is black i think, the other is black w/ like 4 white lines...back and forth, back and forth...all i can do is reboot w/ ctrl+alt+del | 04:43 |
| slimjimflim | any ideas? | 04:43 |
| slimjimflim | cripes it just happened again | 04:51 |
| Hoochster | hello, is there a bug or something not allowing 10.04 to do shift plus symbols. ever since i upgraded to 10.04 tonight i can't shift anything mind you i am remote controlling but all worked before | 05:27 |
| Hoochster | i can paste a shifted character in from another window though | 05:27 |
| likemindead | What's your keyboard layout, Hoochster? | 05:39 |
| Hoochster | us defaults | 05:39 |
| Hoochster | was running karmic before the upgrade and all was fine | 05:40 |
| Hoochster | but after upgrade and reboot noticed i could no longer press the pound key etc heh, but i can cut/paste into it from another window | 05:40 |
| Hoochster | i am using x11vnc to control it | 05:40 |
| Hoochster | i will note this is on a vmware server but again no issues before | 05:40 |
| Hoochster | if you have any ideas i am open heh i have googled for awhile now | 05:40 |
| likemindead | Sounds strange, for sure. | 05:45 |
| Hoochster | trying to connect to my vmware server to try via console to see if it is just a vnc thing | 05:45 |
| cmalo | hello anyone here? | 05:59 |
| likemindead | Yes. | 05:59 |
| Hoochster | likemindead, seems to be a bug with x11vnc, I finally found a workaround to get me by till they fix it. | 06:01 |
| likemindead | Neat. I've yet to use/have a need for VNC or VMWare. | 06:02 |
| Hoochster | well I just have 1 main server, and I run linux-vserver for most stuff but due to display sharing I run vmware-server for stuff like this which is my irc/im server that I leave connected all the time and just remote it from wherever I am heh | 06:03 |
| Hoochster | http://www.bramschoenmakers.nl/en/node/714 | 06:04 |
| Hoochster | is the workaround if anyone else runs into the issue | 06:04 |
| likemindead | You should post it to ubuntuforums.org for others. | 06:04 |

| arand | User "vikas" in #ubuntu has installed ubuntu-desktop and then xubuntu-desktop, when trying to do-release-upgrade, yields http://paste.ubuntu.com/437435/ "could not calculate upgrade". | 18:51 |
| charlie-tca | The upgrade fails if two desktop metapackages are installed. | 18:52 |
| charlie-tca | The user should report a bug as it says. | 18:53 |
| arand | charlie-tca: Common issue? | 19:05 |
| charlie-tca | for those with both desktops installed, yes | 19:05 |
| arand | Ah, bother, user is gone now. | 19:06 |
| charlie-tca | he'll be back... | 19:08 |
| arand | Ah, already seems to be well underway in Bug #571743 | 19:09 |
| bazhang | vikas? | 19:09 |
| arand | bazhang: Yep | 19:09 |
| xubuntu469 | :) | 19:11 |
| charlie-tca | That's a really nice bug ;-) | 19:12 |
| mika__ | im trying to create script to save first result with find as source_filename, but find wont stop on first hit. It will save all of the zip files to source_filename, How to stop find after first hit? My script | 19:21 |
| mika__ | for source_filename in $( | 19:21 |
| mika__ | find '/home/user/packs' -type f -iname '*zip' | 19:21 |
| mika__ | ) | 19:21 |
| arand | mika__: for source_filename in $(find '/home/user/packs' -type f -iname '*zip' | head -n1) (probably better ways to do it, but...) | 19:34 |
| moetunes | arand: he asked in #ubuntu and #kubuntu - I told him to use ls and grep - grep -m 1 will return the first line | 19:37 |

| Viking667 | I've got a weird problem. I don't know how to set the console keyboard mapping. I've checked in /etc/default/console-setup, but there's nothing reflecting dvorak in the whole of /etc. My wife can't type dvorak, so how do I get console back to qwerty for her on bootup? | 23:25 |
| charlie-tca | Viking667: Applications -> Settings -> Settings Manager -> Keyboard, Layout | 23:31 |
| Viking667 | uh, she's not in X. | 23:31 |
| Viking667 | And I want to set it differently for my user than for hers. | 23:31 |
| Viking667 | I can type in both qwerty anddvorak, she only pokes. | 23:32 |
| charlie-tca | try running dpkg console-setup reconfigure | 23:32 |
| Viking667 | ahh. Right. Thank you. | 23:32 |
| === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang | ||
| charlie-tca | I think that was wrong, should be dpkg-reconfigure console-setup | 23:35 |
| Viking667 | Yup. Figured that's what you meant | 23:35 |
| Viking667 | Thank you. That was probably the thing I needed. | 23:36 |
| Viking667 | Now, off to my other machine, hi ho, hi ho... | 23:36 |
| Viking667 | awww, shyte. | 23:39 |
| Viking667 | Now flash isnt working, and I can't even download it from adobe. | 23:40 |
| TheBilgeRat | in what way is it not working? and are you i386 or x64? | 23:44 |
