matt-vaioI am sick of unity for now. until it's bugs are worked out, I want to use gnome again, and there is no gnome-desktop related startup option. Any ideas?03:36
rwwmatt-vaio: There's an option for "classic" GNOME on the login screen. Try that.03:37
* rww isn't using natty, can't help much more than that pointer03:37
matt-vaiorww, thanks but that still didn't work for me03:37
Ampelbeincpatrick08: you have some ppa in your sources that doesn't provide packages for it03:37
rwwmatt-vaio: odd. Did you still get Unity anyway, or did you get a broken GNOME desktop?03:37
syn-ackGood evening.03:38
matt-vaiowell, I did a straight upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04a. everything was smooth.03:38
matt-vaioand gnome was perfect :)03:38
syn-ackmatt-vaio, it's generally better if you do a fresh install of the OS when you want to run the development version. Though, the upgrade process has become a lot less painful as it was in the past03:39
matt-vaioI understand that. the problem is, when I fresh installed, I accidentally set the grub partition in my win7 partition:(((03:41
matt-vaioand then my hardware got messed up, and now through a series of events, my laptop doesn't suspend anymore, it hibernates instead which is a dread for school. end of spam:>.03:41
matt-vaiosyn-ack, I'll have to. I'll lose all my backups and stuff, but w/e.03:42
matt-vaioty03:42
syn-ackmatt-vaio, Do what I do03:43
syn-ackkeep your /~ on it's own partition03:43
syn-ackthat way, when you do have to do that, you're not nuking the entire install. Only the system partition03:43
matt-vaioyea, with 10.10, they added that choice thing. and out of curiosity, I did it differently:P03:43
matt-vaiowhich cost me03:44
syn-ackThey've had it like that since Warty.03:44
matt-vaiowell, choice wise, not advanced properties and stuff.03:45
matt-vaioI've figured out the partitioning stuff already, so it isn't hard.03:45
syn-ackHell, it's been like that since I started using linux back in '98 :P03:45
matt-vaiomeh, I just started using it a year ago.03:45
MTecknologyYay.... natty go breaky03:50
syn-ackDude, tell me about it03:50
syn-ackwith less than a month to go, I'm surprised that we're only in A2... Though, I've not beta tested in quite a while03:51
MTecknologyhow can you beta test without a beta release?03:51
syn-ackYou know what I mean. :P03:52
MTecknologyah....03:55
MTecknologyIt's be that broke it - by removing initramfs-tools from the system :P03:55

susundbergWhy I cant find bug assosiated with this07:11
Ampelbeinsusundberg: there was no update to network-manager in the last days07:12

susundbergYeah. I just prefer not to prefix my all commands with 'sudo'07:32
susundbergbut that eagerness to use 'root' certainly originates from debian times ..07:33
Ampelbeinsusundberg: ok. ;-) about the mirror: did you actually get any updates in the last days?07:34
susundbergWell dont know, i updated yesterday after some days07:35

alkisgHi, I'm trying to `apt-get dist-upgrade` a natty chroot, and apport fails to be configured. In /var/log/daemon.log I get:12:16
alkisgMar  2 14:11:11 alkis init: apport pre-start process (15957) terminated with status 112:16
alkisgMar  2 14:11:11 alkis init: apport post-stop process (15958) terminated with status 112:16
alkisgIn apport.postinst there is this call, added by dh_installinit:12:16
alkisginvoke-rc.d apport start || exit $?12:17
alkisgSo the question is, should that invoke-rc.d call succeed, or should the postinst have an `|| true` at that line?12:17
alkisgI.e. is it a bug in sysv-rc, meaning that invoke-rc.d should return "true" when inside chroots, or is it a bug in apport?12:18
tsimpsonin chroots you don't want services to be started/stopped/restarted from invoke-rc.d, so you should create a shell script in /usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d with just "exit 101"12:24
alkisgtsimpson: and then manually restore that script when the chroot is actually used to boot a pc?12:57
alkisgThat doesn't sound right, I believe it should be handled automatically12:57
tsimpsonthen use http://paste.ubuntu.com/574434/12:58
alkisgtsimpson: it's a nice workaround, but my point is, why should I need a workaround/12:59
alkisgIsn't it a bug that needs to be fixed?12:59
tsimpsonbecause it's supposed to be user-configurable I guess13:00
alkisgAlso why `exit 101` instead of `exit 0`?13:00
tsimpsonit's perfectly possible to have services running from a chroot, it's just that you normally don't wan to13:00
alkisgAnd it should also chain to invoke-rc.d when outside of a chroot13:00
tsimpson101 means something similar to "permission denied"13:00
alkisgThat would still make the postinst fail though13:01
tsimpsoninvoke-rc.d calls /usr/sbin/policy-rc.d, so no13:01
alkisgAlso, except from invoke-rc.d, it's a problem with initctl (upstart) calls as well13:01
tsimpsonoops, I said invoke-rc.d above, I meant policy-rc.d13:01
alkisgSo if invoke-rc.d is supposed to start services, then it's a bug in apport.postinst, it shouldn't fail on chroots13:01
tsimpson* in chroots you don't want services to be started/stopped/restarted from invoke-rc.d, so you should create a shell script in /usr/sbin/policy-rc.d with just "exit 101"13:02
alkisgAh, let me look at policy-rc.d, didn't know about that...13:02
alkisg(but it's still a problem with upstart services)13:02
tsimpsoninvoke-rc.d checks with policy-rc.d to see if it should actually do anything13:02
tsimpson-> http://people.debian.org/~hmh/invokerc.d-policyrc.d-specification.txt13:03
tsimpsonI'm not sure how current that is, but it's what I found on google13:03
alkisgGot it, we use policy-rc.d on ltsp as well, I just never looked at it. That's a better workaround for invoke-rc.d, but I think a proper fix is still needed13:04
alkisgcreate chroot => install apport => it fails. It just doesn't sound logical that policy-rc.d needs to be created for it not to fail13:05
alkisgThank you though for the nice workaround :)13:06
alkisgI reported the apport/upstart problem in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upstart/+bug/72778513:34

bjsnideryou will get the 270 driver when the process is complete16:36
