penguin42yeh, I use kvm - it doesn't like 3d stuff00:00
sebsebsebpenguin42: this version is slightly later than what I used before upgrading the distro, so not that long ago.  anyway 3.1.8 is the version.  Also no KVM for me on here, since this computer does not do hardware virtaulization.00:02
sebsebseb(and Virtualbox OSE, if we are going to be really exact,  :D )00:03

yofelhm, should work if you have network connection and ran 'apt-get update' once22:58
EliteHuntersI can dl the *.deb file from adobe22:58
EliteHuntersbut the cmd line isn't working for install22:58
yofeljpds: oh, I'll switch back, my mirror was down yesterday22:58
jpdsyofel: Oh? Which one were you using?22:58
yofeljpds: university mirror, ftp-stud.hs-esslingen.de22:59
jpdsAh.22:59
yofelEliteHunters: for downloaded .debs you have to either use 'dpkg -i' or gdebi22:59
jpdsyofel: It's a good idea to report mirror problems in #ubuntu-mirrors.23:00
EliteHuntersyofel:- then what would be the correct cmd line statement to type?23:01
yofelwell, it's back up already, so no point23:01
yofelEliteHunters: sudo dpkg -i *.deb       where *.deb is your .deb file23:02
yofelbut at least for the ubuntu installer the package needs a working internet connection to work, not sure what the adobe one does23:02
EliteHuntersits telling me that the dpkg-i cmd not found23:05
EliteHuntersthe file it there in the dl folder23:05
EliteHuntersmy internet is up and running23:05
yofelEliteHunters: 'dpkg -i' note the space in between23:06
EliteHuntersmy konsole cmd line was "sudo dpkg -i install_flash_player_10_linux.deb23:06
yofelthen 'dpkg-i cmd not found' doesn't make sense23:07
EliteHuntersnow it's telling me that the package isn't found23:07
EliteHuntersubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo dpkg -i install_flash_player_10_linux.deb23:08
EliteHuntersdpkg: error processing install_flash_player_10_linux.deb (--install):23:08
EliteHunters cannot access archive: No such file or directory23:08
EliteHuntersErrors were encountered while processing:23:08
EliteHunters install_flash_player_10_linux.deb23:08
Jordan_UEliteHunters: Just double click the .deb file.23:09
penguin42anyone else still having f-spot problems in Maverick?23:09
EliteHuntersjordan_U: done23:09
EliteHuntersthe window is up and there's the option to install package23:10
EliteHuntersthe option however isn't working when clicked and double clicked23:11
EliteHuntersIs there another option?23:13
EliteHuntersjordan_U: Any other option that I can try?23:17
Jordan_UEliteHunters: How big is the flash drive? It might be better in general to just do a standard install.23:18
EliteHunterswell I'm using a 1GB flash drive and yes I could install it on the system (laptop), but I wanted the option to test drive it like this23:19
EliteHuntersand plus Jordan_U, soon I'll have to wipe this drive and install Maverick M Alpha 323:22
Jordan_UEliteHunters: I meant that if it were a 3 or 4 GIG flash drive you could do a full normal Ubuntu install to the flash drive itself.23:23
EliteHunterstrue23:23
EliteHuntersI could've dl the DVD iso23:24
EliteHuntersperhaps it is still and option23:24
EliteHuntersI just have to get a larger flash drive23:24
EliteHuntersshouldn't be much of a problem23:24
EliteHuntersnot at all23:24
EliteHuntersbut nevertheless, I'm still try to troubleshoot the problem at hand with the adobe flash plugin23:25
EliteHunterscause firefox dl well using the sudo apt-get23:25
EliteHuntersand skype I had to use the software management and then sudo apt-get23:26
EliteHuntersand thoes two worked well23:26
EliteHuntersit's just this one thus far23:26

* Jordan_U can't wait untill compressed btrfs is used on the LiveCD's because then *real* persistance will be possible.23:43
Jordan_UBut that won't be for a while, if ever.23:43
DaekdroomJordan_U, compressed btrfs on LiveCD? To make them able to ship more in 700MB?23:50
Jordan_UDaekdroom: No, the CD's are already compressed with squashfs (and btrfs compression will likely never be as good as squashfs as that's its sole purpose).23:51
Jordan_UDaekdroom: The advantage from btrfs is that you would still be able to get a lot of compression (hopefully enough not to be a noticeable regression from squashfs) but you could extend the btrfs filesystem from the CD to another (writeable) device.23:52
penguin42oh that would be kind of nice, although that could be done with aufs at the moment?23:55
Jordan_UDaekdroom: Currently with "persistance" when any file is modified the entire file is copied to the casper-rw partition. That's inneficient with large files and small changes, and more importantly the changed / added files are only recognised after the kenel is loaded. So with persistance you can't upgrade the kernel (even though the system will let you install the newer package without complaining)23:55
Jordan_UEven more cool is that if you wanted to "install" this modified system you could simply use btrfs tools to migrate the entire filesytem to a hard drive.23:57
Jordan_Upenguin42: I hope that explains some of why btrfs would be far superior to what we have now with aufs :)23:58
penguin42I've heard that story about copying the whole file and I don't quite get it23:59
penguin42normally on any upgrade the whole file gets rewritten anyway23:59
