alex88hi guys, i've this problem, my controller is not supported by actual kernel.10:46
alex88i've a patch given me by the sata kernel developer that should work.. how can i compile a kernel and apply to a live cd to let me install it?10:47
Jordan_Ualex88: That would be pretty tedious to do. If possible, I'd reocommend installing Ubuntu on another machine, installing the patched kernel, then swapping the drive into the problem PC.10:52
alex88it's impossible.. the drives are 2 sata-6 in raid0.. so i can't move from there..:S10:53
Jordan_Ualex88: Yet another reason not use FakeRAID in the future :)10:58
Jordan_Ualex88: Can you bring over another drive and just dd it to the array?10:59
alex88_nope..i only have 2 sata ports10:59
alex88_why fakeraid? isn't it real raid?11:00
=== alex88_ is now known as alex88
Jordan_Ualex88: I doubt that you have a real RAID card unless it's a high end server.11:04
Jordan_Ualex88: No USB flash drives?11:06
alex88Jordan_U, is this fine to do that? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile12:10
alex88cause i have to patch /drivers/ata/ahci.c b/drivers/ata/ahci.c is possible just to build the module?12:30

rolandhi, how to enable natty narwhal repositories?13:32
jussi roland, the basic thing here is, at this point, if you dont knw how to do it, then you probably sholdnt - is there a particular reason you want to?13:34
rolandI just wan't to testdrive newest features13:35
rolandi'm running it in virutal machine anyway, so if it brakes down, theres no harm done13:36
rolandbreaks*13:36
Daekdroomroland, if it's in a virtual machine, you're better off installing natty in the VM right away instead of updating to it13:39
ikoniaroland: what features do you want to test drive ?13:39
rolandDaekdroom: i'll just do that then13:42
rolandikonia: whatever new and interesting there might be, dolphin should have some new things for instance13:42
ikoniaroland: if you want to test "new" stuff, I find it important to known what new stuff there actually is, and it's current state in the release cycle/build before blindly upgrading with no experience13:43
rolandikonia: well, if you don't want me messing around with natty, then I just don't care what you think13:46
ikoniaI don't not "want" you messing around13:47
ikoniaroland: based on your comments though I won't be assisting you attempt to use natty, so I don't "care what you think"13:47
rolandikonia: sry if I upset you anyway, it wasn't intentional14:00

lamalexanyone know if there is some known linker breakage in natty?16:14
mirakhi16:17
crimsunlamalex: as in https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2010-November/031991.html ?16:17
lamalexcrimsun, would that affect compiling things manually with gcc?16:19
lamalexwait duh sorry16:20
lamalexcrimsun, does this mostly cause run time failures, or could failed symbol lookup be a concequence16:23
crimsunboth16:23
lamalexok, I think I might be getting bitten by this16:28
lamalexcrimsun, I'm trying to link directly to glib and it's failing to look up symbols16:36
lamalexlike g_printf :P16:36
lamalexMaybe the bigger question, is does compiz segfault for anyone else16:44
lamalexthe segfault comes from our distro patch for gsettings migration, and occurs in gio_file_new_for_path16:45
penguin42anyone else seeing a loss of the UUID of their swap device after a natty upgrade? It almost looks like bug 295203 - but that's install time17:07
ubottuLaunchpad bug 295203 in util-linux (Ubuntu) "Swap not mounting after install" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/29520317:07
yofelpenguin42: in fstab? why should that be changed by an upgrade?17:08
penguin42yofel: I don't think it's fstab that's broken - blkid won't give me a uuid from the swap partition17:09
yofelit does here: /dev/sda6: UUID="87a0c251-8faf-479c-a6c9-367373f75cfe" TYPE="swap"17:09
penguin42yeh, you're right - that bug is it screwing the uuid in fstab, so is irrelevant17:10
penguin42yofel: Nope, no output here17:10
penguin42the fact that my fstab has a uuid for the swap file suggests it did have at some point17:12
* penguin42 isn't entirely sure where the uuid is supposed to come from17:13
yofelnot sure, but mkswap does print an UUID when you format a swap drive17:14
* penguin42 isn't entirely sure what to file this bug against17:15
penguin42libuuid1?17:15
yofelwhat happens if you run blkid with the drive as argument?17:18
penguin42nothing17:25

ChrisBuchholzHi guys. I am curious. How will natty work for people that wants to use gnome-shell instead of unity? Will it be seamless, or will it be "a mess"?20:17
penguin42ChrisBuchholz: I don't honestly know, but if Gnome-shell is packaged it should be pretty easy20:17
penguin42ChrisBuchholz: You can already run a whole different bunch of window managers, so one more won't be much different - I think it just comes down to if Gnome-shell is properly packaged which I suspect it will be20:18
ChrisBuchholzpenguin42: i see. So i guess i dont have to fear ubuntu - i have been using fedora, but only ubuntu (via the mactel ppas on launchpad) has proper support for my macbook pro, so i am considering switching to ubuntu, but i will be a gnome-shell user20:19
penguin42ChrisBuchholz: There are a few things that Ubuntu changes that are harder to avoid; in particular some of the changes to do with the notification area - I'm not sure how that will work with gnome shell; however you won't be the only gnome shell user I'm sure20:20
ChrisBuchholzpenguin42: i see20:20
ChrisBuchholzpenguin42: thank you. I think i will go ask at #gnome-shell too20:21
