* Mamarok is desperate about her upgrade problems: bug 75953108:56
ubottuLaunchpad bug 759531 in grub2 (Ubuntu) "Natty update hangs on grub-pc" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/75953108:56
MamarokI was able to resolve it a few times, but not now, it definitely hangs08:57
RiddellMamarok: on bug 759531 the errors seem to be on linux rather than grub09:46
ubottuLaunchpad bug 759531 in grub2 (Ubuntu) "Natty update hangs on grub-pc" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/75953109:46
Mamarokso it's the kernel?09:51
Mamarokdarn09:51
Mamarokbut apparently it can't write to grub09:52
bambeemorning09:53
MamarokI just tried to remove old kernels, now it hangs on run-parts: executing /etc/kernel/postrm.d/zz-update-grub 2.6.35-23-generic /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.-35-23-generic09:55
Mamarokand that is really a very old kernel09:55
Mamarokeverytime it writes to grub apparently, at least it seems so to me09:55
Mamarokalso I don't understand what is doing with nvidia-common stuff, I don't even have a nvidia card09:56
RiddellMamarok: so once it gets to "Setting up grub-pc" it just freezes there?10:06
Mamarokyes, now it actually freezers at the above line10:17
Mamarok-r10:17
MamarokI think I will boot another kernel and try again10:18
MamarokI still have the -7 installed10:18
bambeesomeone could review the debdiff for bug 757526 ?10:55

RiddellMamarok: nvidia-173 was recently removed from our seeds because it didn't work, so I suppose anyone upgrading from maverick will now get it removed13:47
Mamarokwell, the modalisases package was still around in my laptop, and strangely I don't even have a Nvidia card13:48

ScottKRiddell: I think we're doing pretty good.  The biggest Kubuntu specific problem I see is the purple boot splash.  Any thoughts on how to override that?23:53
yofelit's not changable, but you could probably add another grub script that set the color later so you get black->purple->blue or something like that23:55
RiddellI can't say it bothers me23:55
yofelor get someone to fix bug 69691523:55
