| BamBam | has somebody installed a persistent linux on a usb/flash-drive? | 00:06 |
|---|---|---|
| BamBam | I need some advice | 00:07 |
| mongy | BamBam, I cant seem to get natty to install to usb with persistence. | 00:08 |
| mongy | BamBam, any other I can.. | 00:08 |
| genii-around | Bah. flash player segfaults. | 00:08 |
| genii-around | "error 4" and "error 6" , seems to vary | 00:09 |
| Pici | how informative | 00:10 |
| BamBam | no idea what u are talking about; anyway, I receive an error message, something about a Default UI and Configuration | 00:10 |
| mongy | BamBam, well I can create one, but it doesnt use the persistence part of it | 00:11 |
| BamBam | teoretically, when you use ubuntu to create a Boot Disk, it allows you to reserve some space to save personalisations, updates,etc | 00:12 |
| mongy | but not for this release, for me , yet | 00:13 |
| BamBam | ok, then | 00:14 |
| BamBam | is there any other distro which can do this? | 00:14 |
| BamBam | I want to run linux from my usb as if it were from my hard disk | 00:14 |
| mongy | yeah, the stable version. 10.10 | 00:15 |
| BamBam | well, I am using ubuntu-10.10-desktop-i386 | 00:16 |
| mongy | #ubuntu | 00:18 |
| mongy | and it does work, I have tried it a couple of times. | 00:18 |
| BamBam | when i reboot from the usb, i receive a linux error-message, saying something about a missing default UI or configuration | 00:21 |
| BUGabundo | hey | 00:23 |
| BUGabundo | good evening guys | 00:23 |

| knittl | nautilus is erroring out with a dbus-error | 11:38 |
| knittl | known issue? | 11:38 |
| knittl | libunity0 can be removed? | 11:41 |
| knittl | The following packages will be REMOVED: gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad libindicator1 libreoffice-help-en-gb libreoffice-l10n-en-gb libreoffice-l10n-en-za libunity0 libwebkit-1.0-2 libwebkit-1.0-common openoffice.org-help-en-gb openoffice.org-l10n-en-gb openoffice.org-l10n-en-za | 11:42 |
| bazhang | !find libunity0 | 11:42 |
| ubottu | Found: libunity0 | 11:42 |
| bazhang | !info libunity0 | 11:42 |
| ubottu | libunity0 (source: unity): binding to get places into the launcher - shared library. In component main, is optional. Version 0.2.46-0ubuntu5 (natty), package size 352 kB, installed size 1104 kB | 11:42 |
| bazhang | sure | 11:42 |
| knittl | sure == can be removed? | 11:42 |
| knittl | slightly related: how can i update only a single package from the command line? | 11:43 |
| knittl | (including all dependencies of course) | 11:44 |
| bazhang | pinning? | 11:45 |
| knittl | install seems not like the perfect option, since it will mark it as manually installed | 11:45 |
| knittl | anyway, i will be upgrading nautilus now (which will remove libindcator1 (replaced by libindicator2) and libunity0) | 11:47 |

| duanedesign | I have over 100 packages that are being held back from upgrading. Seems like a lot, anyone else experiencing anything similar? | 12:44 |
| wrst | duanedesign: how are you upgrading? | 12:51 |
| duanedesign | wrst: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade Was curious if this was an issue unique to me or not | 13:00 |
| duanedesign | I usually run the updates everyday, but this time I went a week or so without running an update | 13:01 |
| wrst | duanedesign: could be some packages to be replaced such as openoffice with libre office, I generally do 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' that will replace packages too, of course also greater chance of messing thingsup but isn't that what running alpha is all about :) | 13:01 |
| wrst | i do dist-upgrade when using alpha | 13:02 |
| wrst | dist-upgrade from my understanding pulls in updates and also will add changing dependencies i think that is correct from the man page on it, so you probably have some dependencies that have changed | 13:04 |
| bazhang | !dist-upgrade | 13:05 |
| ubottu | A dist-upgrade will install new dependencies for packages already installed and may remove packages if they are no longer needed. Please see !upgrade for the proper way to upgrade to a new version of Ubuntu. | 13:05 |
| twager | wrst: dist-upgrade -d will tell you all the upgrades you need you can then choose which ones you want | 13:05 |
| wrst | twager: will that probably solve his issues of all the held back packages? | 13:06 |
| twager | wrst: Dunno...I look at the upgrades then just blunder on.. :-) | 13:07 |
| wrst | ha ha twager i must admit with alpha i expect to reinstall several times so i don't do much worrying | 13:08 |
| twager | I do know that apt-get upgrade seems to install packages that the upgrader tell me are held back | 13:08 |
| twager | I have never had to install Natty..If It fails I leave it for a couple of days then boot into a console and apt-upgrade it | 13:10 |
| twager | ...bbl.. | 13:10 |
| wrst | i'm too impatient to wait that long :) | 13:11 |

| jfi | Hello, is it normal that unity-2d (natty) use the default gtk theme? Did I miss to install a package? | 14:06 |
| jfi | Just wonder if it is a bug, a 'not yet implemented' or I miss a point when I installed it | 14:08 |
| * penguin42 seems to be stuck in an upgrade repeatedly asking me to choose a method for toggling between national and latin mode on keyboard | 14:15 | |
| penguin42 | hmm, finally moved on - I just had to tell it the same thing about 6 times | 14:16 |
| Ian_Corne | penguin42: I don't even know what that switching thing is about | 14:17 |
| Ian_Corne | it's just annoying :p | 14:17 |
| penguin42 | Ian_Corne: I assume it's for flipping to non-uk/US keyboard varients | 14:18 |

| BluesKaj | kmix & alsamixer was missing from my setup this morning when I logged in , apt says it was installed but when I tried to launch it , "no such file etc" I had to remove it | 14:34 |
| BluesKaj | then reinstall, wonder what gives there | 14:35 |
| BUGabundo | so composite and libnotify still broken | 14:36 |
| BUGabundo | anyone got the bug reports for those? | 14:36 |

| ari-tczew | where can I find sun-java6 for natty? | 15:19 |
| tsimpson | ari-tczew: install the maverick version from the canonical partner repository | 15:23 |
| ari-tczew | tsimpson: OK, I'll do it. why natty has dropped it? | 15:23 |
| tsimpson | it hasn't been dropped, it just doesn't exist yet as natty isn't released | 15:24 |

| nysosym | hi there | 16:45 |
| nysosym | how can i upgrade to natty? | 16:46 |
| nysosym | update-manager -c won't work | 16:46 |
| nysosym | +sudo | 16:46 |
| yofel | -d, not -c | 16:46 |
| nysosym | thx | 16:46 |
| BluesKaj | nysosym, good luck | 16:47 |
| nysosym | thx, but why? :) | 16:47 |
| penguin42 | remember, it is an alpha - it could eat your cat | 16:48 |
| nysosym | thats ok | 16:48 |
| BluesKaj | nysosym, it should work ok, but there have been some probs with update manager | 16:48 |
| nysosym | ubuntu is just for testing :) | 16:48 |
| nysosym | to have a look what the open source community does :D | 16:49 |
| [lan3y] | how do i enable wireless on natty? its labeled as disabled by hardware switch, and yes the switch is on, i dont know what to do now | 16:49 |
| coz_ | nysosym, what are you used to if not "open source" ? | 16:50 |
| nysosym | osx | 16:50 |
| coz_ | ah | 16:50 |
| BluesKaj | nysosym, I have 2 pcs running natty .. a few small probs , but overall quite stable | 16:50 |
| coz_ | nysosym, same here | 16:50 |
| [lan3y] | its worked before on natty, so its a recent change somewhere :/ | 16:50 |
| nysosym | it's a shame, that i can't get ubuntu to work with my new macbook pro :/ | 16:51 |
| nysosym | live cd shows me just an empty window | 16:51 |
| BluesKaj | [lan3y], gnome nm-applet ? | 16:52 |
| coz_ | nysosym, I cant help with that .. I stopped using mac at 9.x | 16:52 |
| [lan3y] | Blueskaj, yeah thats whats saying its disabled | 16:52 |
| [lan3y] | i've run nm-tool in terminal and it says wlan0 iwl3945 state:unavailable | 16:53 |
| nysosym | as far as i can see, ubuntu comes closer to mac, design wise :D | 16:53 |
| BluesKaj | [lan3y], in the terminal run ifconfig , then pastebin the output pls | 16:53 |
| [lan3y] | could be tricky without a net connection on it though | 16:54 |
| [lan3y] | theres no wlan in ifconfig, if thats important? | 16:54 |
| BluesKaj | yup, that's important | 16:54 |
| [lan3y] | ok what do i need to do now? | 16:54 |
| BluesKaj | remove network manager and reinstall it , that worked for my USB wifi adapter ..however I had to use wicd after the latest upgrade , nm just would not connect | 16:57 |
| BluesKaj | nm reinstall might work for you [lan3y] | 16:58 |
| [lan3y] | how do i fetch the archive to install though? | 16:58 |
| BluesKaj | [lan3y], if you have network access with ethernet | 16:59 |
| [lan3y] | i have another machine (this one) and a usb drive, anywhere i can grab the deb file? | 16:59 |
| BluesKaj | you can download wicd to the usb drive and copy it | 17:01 |
| BluesKaj | [lan3y], if you decide o wicd , then there's no need to remove nm , wicd install disables gnome-nm | 17:03 |
| [lan3y] | ok | 17:04 |
| [lan3y] | ill grab both debs anyway | 17:04 |
| BluesKaj | [lan3y], try this first sudo iwlist wlan0 scan | 17:05 |
| [lan3y] | doesn't support scanning, network is down | 17:08 |
| BluesKaj | ok | 17:09 |
| [lan3y] | ugh forgot network-manager-gnome | 17:10 |
| [lan3y] | so ive reinstalled now what? | 17:15 |
| BluesKaj | reboot | 17:19 |
| [lan3y] | ok | 17:20 |
| sda | hi all, i have a question, I love search\program graphic of ub11.04 and i want it on my normal gnome. How can I do? (this one http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/unity-2d-apps.png) | 17:27 |
| [lan3y] | BluesKaj, reinstalling + reboot = no change | 17:29 |
| [lan3y] | it says im in flight mode | 17:30 |
| [lan3y] | if that helps | 17:30 |

| penguin42 | is anyone getting bogus values from the 'head flying hours' in smartctl -a ? | 18:38 |
| penguin42 | mine is saying 241643450010053, which is about 27B years | 18:39 |
| Ian_Corne | RROR: smartctl requires a device name as the final command-line argument. | 18:46 |
| Ian_Corne | I have no idea what it does | 18:46 |
| Ian_Corne | but i can't run smartctl -a :p | 18:46 |
| penguin42 | it checks the errors from a hard drive, so typically smartctl -a /dev/sda | 18:50 |

| donniezazen | Do you guys have problem getting wifi to work wwith broadcom cards? | 20:45 |
| [lan3y] | whats the problem? | 20:47 |
| donniezazen | I was able to install bcmwl-kernel-source without problem but network manager drop down menu does no longer have wireless options and the physical switch does not seem to enable the wifi card. | 20:50 |
| gpc | donniezazen: did you enable the driver in System > Admin > Hardware Drivers? | 20:51 |
| donniezazen | yes i did | 20:51 |
| gpc | Additional Drivers* | 20:51 |
| gpc | might need a reboot | 20:52 |
| donniezazen | nah i have tried all that | 20:53 |
| donniezazen | as far as i know wifi cards seems to be disabled | 20:54 |
| [lan3y] | in terminal run rfkill list | 20:56 |
| [lan3y] | 'rfkill list' | 20:56 |
| donniezazen | it says no | 21:01 |
