| Quackers | http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?s=&daysprune=-1&f=394 | 02:28 |
| Quackers | one or two different fixes it seems, but mainly updates eem to have fixed, I think | 02:29 |

| Andre_Gondim | gwibber is crashing on natty | 02:44 |
| dmb | ugh oh | 03:41 |
| dmb | do not update sudo currently oops | 03:42 |
| dmb | issue is, i only look in this channel when there is a problem :P | 03:42 |
| IdleOne | little late for me :/ | 03:49 |
| IdleOne | ok so how do I add myself back to the sudoers file? | 03:50 |
| dmb | %admin ALL=(ALL) ALL | 03:51 |
| dmb | use recovery mode root shell | 03:51 |
| dmb | or boot into livecd | 03:51 |
| IdleOne | thank you | 03:53 |
| IdleOne | wow now I have half Unity half classic desktop | 04:14 |
| IdleOne | heh | 04:14 |
| yofel_ | you can also just run 'adduser <your user name> sudo', a bit easier that editing sudoers | 04:14 |
| rww | Fun alpha cycle so far, huh ;) | 04:14 |
| === yofel_ is now known as yofel | ||
| yofel | s/that/than/ | 04:15 |
| IdleOne | rww: I have been using classic desktop for a few weeks, decided to boot unity and yeah this is fun | 04:15 |
| rww | IdleOne: I wipe out my ~/ every week or two. It helps a bit with things like that. | 04:16 |
| IdleOne | you wipe you home? | 04:17 |
| rww | IdleOne: Yes. I have a separate computer I use for testing Natty ;P | 04:18 |
| IdleOne | smart you | 04:19 |
| rigved | when i tried to update my natty desktop today, it told me that i should do a partial upgrade. is this correct or something has gone wrong? | 05:21 |
| rww | rigved: That's normal. I recommend not trying to force a full upgrade. | 05:22 |
| rww | I note that you should also see /topic if you're about to do an update. | 05:22 |
| rigved | rww: ok. i'll check it | 05:23 |
| rww | or, hrm. is partial upgrade the one that removes existing packages? I stopped using update manager a couple of releases ago, am starting to forget these things :( | 05:26 |
| IdleOne | DON'T do partial upgrades | 05:39 |
| IdleOne | also sudo is broken right now so don't update. | 05:39 |
| rww | I guess the answer to my question is "yes" | 05:40 |
| rww | huzzah for terms that sound like the opposite of what they are. | 05:40 |
| nit-wit | I deleted the whole thing way to buggy | 05:40 |
| IdleOne | besides being all brokened, natty is pretty nice | 05:42 |
| IdleOne | I know brokened isn't a word | 05:42 |
| rww | Narwhals ate my children. Unstable :( | 05:42 |
| IdleOne | you had children? | 05:43 |
| rww | Wait, what year is it? | 05:43 |
| IdleOne | I'm afraid to answer in case I get it wrong | 05:43 |
| IdleOne | 2010 iirc | 05:43 |
| rww | Then no. No children. Forget I said anything. Look at this shiny red light stick~! | 05:44 |
| IdleOne | ohhhhh aahhhhh | 05:44 |
| rigved | IdleOne: ok i haven't. yes i noticed that it was about to remove packages that i had no clue about. | 05:44 |
| IdleOne | shiny and blinky | 05:44 |
| rigved | i think i'll update using zsync and then install again. | 05:45 |
| Invisikon | sudo is fixed and in repos.. in case anyone was wondering | 05:50 |
| rww | The fixed version is 1.7.4p4-5ubuntu2, if you want to check whether your mirror has it. | 05:51 |
| Invisikon | yeah' | 05:52 |
| Invisikon | -' | 05:52 |
| Invisikon | brb | 05:52 |
| rigved | Invisikon: ok so are you saying that i can update via package manager? it asked me to doa partial upgrade instead of the full (normal) upgrade | 05:56 |

| nperry_ | Welcome to unity new release day... | 09:11 |
| coz_ | hey guys.. i disabled firefox 4 in place of swiftfox on the system... under preferred applications I cannot get swiftfox to be default browser for some reason... any suggestions? | 11:44 |
| rigved | i have tried to run 11.04 under qemu but it does not even boot up; just shows the ubuntu 10.10 booting logo. it is only running under virtualbox (in classic mode only; cannot start unity), but i cannot test x64 under virtualbox as i don't have VT. i can only do this under qemu. anyone have any suggestion on getting 11.04 to work under qemu? | 13:27 |
| Amaranth | rigved: Boot with nosplash and remove 'quiet' from the boot line | 14:03 |
| Amaranth | I think those still apply to a modern boot | 14:04 |
| Invisikon | when ure in the recovery console and need to add yourself to root, whats the command u use? 'adduser youruser sudo' right? from login screen when i choose recovery console i still get permission denied errors.. | 14:30 |
| Pici | Invisikon: Are you being plauged by bug #690873? | 14:35 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 690873 in sudo (Ubuntu) "latest natty sudo upgrade prompts for conffile update and potentially removes %admin from /etc/sudoers" [Critical,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/690873 | 14:35 |
| Invisikon | yeah | 14:35 |
| Pici | Invisikon: Well if you have that then adding yourself to the admin group (which is what is usually used for root access) isn't going to help. I suggest modifying your sudoers file to make sure that it contains the normal %admin ALL=(ALL) ALL entry. | 14:36 |
| Invisikon | in recovery console i cant mod anything without root, cant gain root till sudo is fixed.. any suggestions? | 14:37 |

| charlie-tca__ | Invisikon: after opening an application, right-click the icon in the dock | 16:27 |

| jamalta | hi all.. so i'm one of the people that broke their sudos with yesterday's update and i had a question | 20:15 |
| jamalta | how can i edit /etc/sudoers without sudo-ing? :\ | 20:15 |
| jamalta | oh wait, i can just login in single-user mode :) | 20:16 |
| Ian_Corne | yes | 20:19 |
| Ian_Corne | :) | 20:19 |
| charlie-tca | or live cd | 20:20 |
| IdleOne | jamalta: boot to recovery mode and select root shell then nano /etc/sudoers and add %admin ALL=(ALL) ALL | 20:20 |
| IdleOne | save and reboot to normal kernel | 20:20 |
| jamalta | IdleOne: yep, did that.. thanks! | 20:22 |
| jamalta | :) | 20:22 |
| IdleOne | sure thing | 20:22 |
| Ian_Corne | IdleOne: or just visudo :) | 20:27 |
| Ian_Corne | instead of nano'ing the file | 20:27 |
| Ian_Corne | Is the warning about python still true? | 20:28 |
| IdleOne | Ian_Corne: yeah, I know. I just prefer nano | 20:29 |
| Ian_Corne | doesn't it actually just use nano? | 20:29 |
| rww | IdleOne: Considering that visudo should use your default editor, and that it does validation to make sure you didn't make silly mistakes, you should be using visudo ;P | 21:10 |
| red2kic | Unless he is an IRC crawling bot who does not make mistakes and test his system based on incoming commands from IRC channels. | 21:13 |
| red2kic | sudo reboot | 21:13 |
| red2kic | Apparently not. | 21:13 |

| xharx | natty installed a bootloader that doesn't boot in 9 of 10 cases. grub install from maverick fixed this | 21:32 |
| Andre_Gondim | I have installed natty alpha 1 and never upgrade yet, is it save do this? | 21:33 |
| nperry_ | Andre_Gondim: may i ask what your doing on alpha 1 if you don't want a broken system? | 21:34 |
| nperry_ | the point of it is to stay up to date to ensure everything works oks | 21:34 |
| Andre_Gondim | I made some upgrades, and about 3 days ago I had a crach, then I installed again from alpha 1 and don't upgrade again | 21:34 |
| nperry_ | Did you report it? | 21:35 |
| nperry_ | Did you look into why it happened? | 21:35 |
| === nperry_ is now known as nperry | ||
| Andre_Gondim | not, but if this happens again I will | 21:36 |
| nperry | Good answer :-) | 21:36 |
| nperry | If your ever stuck, just ask in here, sure someone might have the same problem | 21:36 |
| Andre_Gondim | thanks ;) | 21:37 |

| Some_Person | Does natty include unity yet? | 22:25 |
| charlie-tca | yes | 22:26 |
| Amaranth | Some_Person: Oh yeah, it's fun! | 22:31 |
| Amaranth | (run for your life) | 22:31 |
| Some_Person | Amaranth: Really bad? | 22:31 |
| Amaranth | Some_Person: Nah, just no where near done | 22:31 |
| Amaranth | Some_Person: What is there works well but what is there isn't much | 22:31 |
| rww | Works better than 10.10's does, imho :\ | 22:32 |
| jamalta | Amaranth: why do you say that? it works well... | 22:32 |
| rww | but yeah, definitely not finished. | 22:32 |
| jamalta | I mean, there's a lot of features being worked on | 22:32 |
| jamalta | They'll be done with time :) | 22:32 |
| Amaranth | rww: That was true from day 1, due to using compiz :) | 22:32 |
| rww | yup :) | 22:32 |
| Amaranth | jamalta: On one hand more features are great, on the other more features means more work for me... | 22:32 |
| jamalta | Amaranth: why is that? | 22:33 |
| Amaranth | jamalta: Because I'm porting the whole thing to OpenGL ES 2 | 22:34 |
| jamalta | i see | 22:34 |
| * Some_Person just watched a video demoing unity in natty alpha 1 | 22:34 | |
| Amaranth | Some_Person: You get the dock, a button that opens `nautilus /usr/share/applications`, and the indicators | 22:35 |
| Some_Person | The bar thing on the side reminds me a lot of the Windows 7 taskbar | 22:35 |
| Amaranth | Some_Person: and you can't rearrange anything on said dock right now (although DBO says that works in trunk) | 22:35 |
| jamalta | Amaranth: why's that? | 22:36 |
| Amaranth | jamalta: Because unity isn't done yet | 22:36 |
| Some_Person | I'm not so sure I like how the applications will be on the side, but the thing I want to see most is how applications will be opened | 22:37 |
| Some_Person | maverick's implementation with the fullscreen application chooser seems slow and a bit counter-productive to me, so I'm hoping they can come up with something better than that | 22:38 |
| jamalta | Amaranth: I mean, why are you porting it to OpenGL ES 2? | 22:39 |
| Some_Person | Still, after watching this video, I feel a bit less worried about unity | 22:39 |
| Amaranth | jamalta: Because I want to get paid ;) | 22:40 |
| Amaranth | jamalta: Doing it for Linaro | 22:40 |
| jamalta | Amaranth: Haha, I understand if it is a part of your job.. I was just curious as to the reasoning. | 22:40 |
| Amaranth | jamalta: Well, mobile devices use OpenGL ES... | 22:41 |
| jamalta | Yeah | 22:41 |
| jamalta | I just wanted to know what the goal was.. meaning, if there was a push to get Unity working on mobile devices | 22:41 |
| jamalta | Makes sense for Linaro :) | 22:41 |

| slayer | i wanna to install beowulf clustering without hard disk. but i dont know what services i chould install | 23:05 |
| rww | !crossposting | slayer | 23:05 |
| ubottu | slayer: Please don't ask the same question in multiple Ubuntu channels at the same time. Many helpers are in more than one channel and it's not fair to them or the other people seeking support. | 23:05 |
| slayer | help mmmmeeeeeeee??? | 23:06 |
| rww | slayer: You've asked the same thing both here and in #ubuntu. Depending on which version of Ubuntu you're using, it's offtopic for one of the two channels. In addition, posting to multiple channels is rather rude. | 23:06 |
| slayer | i use ubuntu server | 23:07 |
| charlie-tca | asked in #ubuntu-devel too | 23:07 |
| rww | fun | 23:07 |
| rww | slayer: Which version of Ubuntu Server? | 23:07 |
| slayer | 10.10 | 23:08 |
| rww | slayer: Then continue asking for help in #ubuntu. This channel is for discussion and support of the development version of Ubuntu, 11.04. | 23:08 |
| charlie-tca | rww: would server be able to help better with that? | 23:08 |
| rww | or #ubuntu-server, yes. | 23:08 |
| rww | I suspect there aren't many people with experience in the subject anywhere, though :\ | 23:09 |
| rww | charlie-tca: did they use a different nickname in -devel, too? | 23:10 |
| charlie-tca | I think I screwed up | 23:11 |
| charlie-tca | too many channels and not enough brains today | 23:12 |
