=== nigelbabu is now known as nigelb [10:46] hi guys, i've this problem, my controller is not supported by actual kernel. [10:47] i'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? [10:52] alex88: 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. [10:53] it's impossible.. the drives are 2 sata-6 in raid0.. so i can't move from there..:S [10:58] alex88: Yet another reason not use FakeRAID in the future :) [10:59] alex88: Can you bring over another drive and just dd it to the array? [10:59] nope..i only have 2 sata ports [11:00] why fakeraid? isn't it real raid? === alex88_ is now known as alex88 [11:04] alex88: I doubt that you have a real RAID card unless it's a high end server. [11:06] alex88: No USB flash drives? [12:10] Jordan_U, is this fine to do that? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile [12:30] cause i have to patch /drivers/ata/ahci.c b/drivers/ata/ahci.c is possible just to build the module? [12:56] * penguin42 wonders where his swap partition went [13:09] any new kernel for maverick which has lzma support on the kernel? [13:16] !maverick | rxd [13:16] rxd: Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick Meerkat) is the current release of Ubuntu. Download http://releases.ubuntu.com/10.10/ - Release Info: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/1010 [13:17] and the support for it is at #ubuntu , not here [13:32] hi, how to enable natty narwhal repositories? [13:34] 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? [13:35] I just wan't to testdrive newest features [13:36] i'm running it in virutal machine anyway, so if it brakes down, theres no harm done [13:36] breaks* [13:39] roland, if it's in a virtual machine, you're better off installing natty in the VM right away instead of updating to it [13:39] roland: what features do you want to test drive ? [13:42] Daekdroom: i'll just do that then [13:42] ikonia: whatever new and interesting there might be, dolphin should have some new things for instance [13:43] roland: 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 experience [13:46] ikonia: well, if you don't want me messing around with natty, then I just don't care what you think [13:47] I don't not "want" you messing around [13:47] roland: based on your comments though I won't be assisting you attempt to use natty, so I don't "care what you think" [14:00] ikonia: sry if I upset you anyway, it wasn't intentional === Richie_ is now known as WelshDragon [14:40] and gnome-panel-bonobo fixed my applets. YAY [14:40] no idea why it isn't being pulled [14:40] ubuntu-desktop is installed === zniavre_ is now known as zniavre [16:14] anyone know if there is some known linker breakage in natty? [16:17] hi [16:17] lamalex: as in https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2010-November/031991.html ? [16:19] crimsun, would that affect compiling things manually with gcc? [16:20] wait duh sorry [16:23] crimsun, does this mostly cause run time failures, or could failed symbol lookup be a concequence [16:23] both [16:28] ok, I think I might be getting bitten by this [16:36] crimsun, I'm trying to link directly to glib and it's failing to look up symbols [16:36] like g_printf :P [16:44] Maybe the bigger question, is does compiz segfault for anyone else [16:45] the segfault comes from our distro patch for gsettings migration, and occurs in gio_file_new_for_path [17:07] anyone 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 time [17:07] Launchpad bug 295203 in util-linux (Ubuntu) "Swap not mounting after install" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/295203 [17:08] penguin42: in fstab? why should that be changed by an upgrade? [17:09] yofel: I don't think it's fstab that's broken - blkid won't give me a uuid from the swap partition [17:09] it does here: /dev/sda6: UUID="87a0c251-8faf-479c-a6c9-367373f75cfe" TYPE="swap" [17:10] yeh, you're right - that bug is it screwing the uuid in fstab, so is irrelevant [17:10] yofel: Nope, no output here [17:12] the fact that my fstab has a uuid for the swap file suggests it did have at some point [17:13] * penguin42 isn't entirely sure where the uuid is supposed to come from [17:14] not sure, but mkswap does print an UUID when you format a swap drive [17:15] * penguin42 isn't entirely sure what to file this bug against [17:15] libuuid1? [17:18] what happens if you run blkid with the drive as argument? [17:25] nothing [17:25] Just reported it as bug 682176 [17:25] Launchpad bug 682176 in util-linux (Ubuntu) "[natty] swap not showing uuid" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/682176 === Richie_ is now known as WelshDragon === gord_ is now known as gord === nigelb is now known as Guest81825 === Blizzzek is now known as Blizzz === Blizzz is now known as blizzz === emma_ is now known as emma === emma is now known as em === G_A_C_ is now known as G_A_C === hif1_ is now known as hifi === Tm_K is now known as Tm_T === IdleOne_ is now known as IdleOne === Richie__ is now known as WelshDragon === jtechidna is now known as JontheEchidna === emma is now known as em === mortal_ is now known as mortal === blizzz is now known as Blizzz === marcos_ is now known as Daekdroom [20:17] Hi 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] ChrisBuchholz: I don't honestly know, but if Gnome-shell is packaged it should be pretty easy [20:18] ChrisBuchholz: 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 be [20:19] penguin42: 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 user [20:20] ChrisBuchholz: 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 sure [20:20] penguin42: i see [20:21] penguin42: thank you. I think i will go ask at #gnome-shell too === evident_ is now known as evident === croppa_ is now known as croppa === someone is now known as Guest64913 === Richie is now known as WelshDragon [23:01] mew [23:01] so I got the new desktop version [23:01] managed to get into Classic (under for how long) [23:01] compiz is broken [23:01] so is jockey [23:01] just reported that last bug [23:11] BUGabundo: Do you have swap? [23:11] no [23:11] no swap [23:11] on ssd [23:12] I meant did you have any setup and does it work; but I guess your answer means you didn't have any set up? [23:13] correct [23:14] * penguin42 is just building blkid and friends to fgure out why mine doesn't [23:18] penguin42: as reference using my swap: sudo strace blkid /dev/sda6 http://paste.ubuntu.com/537272/ [23:19] yofel: I've got the current git built here I'm going to take a debugger to if it doesn't behave [23:19] heh
