[02:45] <Jon--> I'm using testdrive to get the latest ISO for the daily release of Ubuntu 11.04, and I am having trouble running Unity. Is Unity broken, or is it an issue with my VM somehow? Using QEMU.
[02:47] <nit-wit> Jon--, wahts the ram set at in qemu
[02:47] <Jon--> nit-wit, umm... let me check
[02:47] <Jon--> nit-wit, 512MB
[02:48] <nit-wit> Jon--, I will try to run it in my virtual box set up it is yesterdays daily.
[02:49] <Jon--> nit-wit, okay let me know. I'm using today's daily from natty-desktop-amd64.iso
[02:50] <nit-wit> Jon--, I just started it.
[02:50] <Jon--> nit-wit, does it have unity?
[02:50] <nit-wit> Jon--, it is the natty i386 live it should
[02:51] <nit-wit> Jon--, so what is actually happening
[02:52] <Jon--> nit-wit, it seems to be using the old GNOME2
[03:09] <nit-wit> Jon--, you still there
[03:10] <Jon--> YES
[03:10] <Jon--> yes*
[03:11] <nit-wit> Jon--, all I get to is a black screen, but up to now on a thumb I have been able to bot it and install when I want, in a partition.
[03:11] <nit-wit> could be a Vbox limitation on my end hard to say.
[03:14] <Jon--> I got it running but no Unity
[03:14] <Jon--> Options on logging in for window manager are Recovery console, Ubuntu, Ubuntu classic, Ubuntu classic (no effects), Ubuntu (safe mode), User defined session
[03:14] <Jon--> Which one is Unity? D:
[03:14] <nit-wit> Jon--, was it a 2d 3d thing as suggested on the +1
[03:15] <nit-wit> regualr ubuntu should be unity I believe
[03:15] <nit-wit> Jon--, what is your graphic card
[03:16] <Jon--> nit-wit, ATI something
[03:17] <Jon--> nit-wit, 01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RS780M/RS780MN [Radeon HD 3200 Graphics]
[03:22] <nit-wit> Jon--, I just looked on google, of course any card you search for somebody has posted a problem. I use a thumb and load it on occasion, normally I would have installed it now but it has been quite buggy on my setup.
[03:31] <Jon--> QEMU crashed my computer at times
[12:03] <davmor2> jibel: Good news wubi seems to be working again :)
[12:06] <jibel> davmor2, Yay \o/ congrats to cjwatson who did an awesome job as usual.
[12:07] <cjwatson> phew
[12:07] <jibel> I tested the upgrade from maverick and 20110407.1 of natty yesterday and both ran fine.
[12:07] <cjwatson> oh, which reminds me, I wanted to make a special appeal to the SRU team ...
[13:58] <fader_> stgraber: I just saw the news about 'test drive' extending to almost every app... awesome! :D
[14:01] <stgraber> fader_: yeah, that's pretty cool. Also when Natty gets released and we start woking on Oneiric, users will have the choice between Natty and Oneiric for each app
[14:01] <stgraber> fader_: so that should help a lot for regression testing
[14:01] <fader_> Oh man, that's a great idea!
[14:02]  * fader_ holds up his "stgraber fan club" sign.
[14:02] <patdk-wk> video on esx seems fixed mostly :)
[14:02] <patdk-wk> just have to remove vga and quiet options if you need to debug kernel output, instead of just quiet
[14:02] <patdk-wk> running iscsi test now
[22:45] <nagappan> jibel, patrickmw, Today I updated my Ubuntu 10.10 box to 11.04 it was smooth ! thought will update you :-)
[23:14] <jibel> nagappan, awesome! more goodness coming next week with beta 2 :-)
[23:15] <charlie-tca> jibel: can I run upgrade tests over the weekend? Will they be valid for iso testing?
[23:20] <jibel> charlie-tca, of course you can but they won't be valid. I don't know what will land into the candidate images before it's completely frozen. But testing the iso and the upgrades before the first candidates are out is encouraged ;-)
[23:20] <charlie-tca> Had to hope they would count, gives a nice jump start
[23:20] <charlie-tca> but I will some anyway.
[23:22] <jibel> charlie-tca, for info we are automatically testing upgrades every day http://people.canonical.com/~mvo/automatic-upgrade-testing/current/ , xubuntu is not in the list though
[23:23] <charlie-tca> well
[23:23] <charlie-tca> Glad to hear they are being tested, anyway. I can run Xubuntu upgrades myself
