[00:47] <FernandoMiguel> nite
[02:34] <CaptainKnots> is it common for 12.04 to still say 11.10 all over the place?
[02:38] <FernandoMiguel> CaptainKnots: UI wise, yes
[02:50] <CaptainKnots> Sysinfo for 'MiNiTUX': Linux 3.2.0-3-generic running , CPU: Intel(R)AtomCPUN455@1.66GHz at 1000 MHz (3324 bogomips), HD: 7/231GB, RAM: 896/983MB, 148 proc's, 22.57min up
[02:50] <CaptainKnots> hmm, doesn't say there
[02:59] <bazhang> !final
[03:00] <|Anthony|> well that there answered my question and i didn't even have to ask
[03:00] <|Anthony|> love that
[03:02] <|Anthony|> will updates in the alpha and beta releases be prompted through update manager, or does it have to be done manually?
[03:02] <CaptainKnots> haha
[03:03] <|Anthony|> as in ubottu's !final response
[03:06] <|Anthony|> well, i just burned a usb of 12.04... lets see if it will boot
[03:06] <|Anthony|> 11.10 wont load on this machine
[03:06] <|Anthony|> :/
[03:06] <CaptainKnots> I just installed 11.10 on my netbook and then right away updated it to 12.04
[03:07] <CaptainKnots> unity actually is pretty cool...I've heard a lot of bad things about it but I like it
[03:18] <|Anthony|> welp... seems as though this box can run 10.04 64-bit but not 11.10 or 12.04
[03:18] <|Anthony|> wonder why that is...
[03:18] <|Anthony|> it wont even complete the bootup
[03:19] <|Anthony|> goes into the ubuntu loading screen (ubuntu logo with the loading dots), finishes that and nothing
[03:19] <|Anthony|> i know the usb's i burned are good, they boot up on another box here
[03:30] <urlin2u> |Anthony|, have you tried a nomodeset option by tapping shift as you power on and then f6 to get to that choice?
[03:32] <|Anthony|> no i have not
[03:32] <|Anthony|> at which point should i try this shit tapping?
[03:32] <|Anthony|> shify*
[03:32] <urlin2u> |Anthony|, sounds like a nividia graphic card or something
[03:32] <|Anthony|> yes nvidia
[03:33] <urlin2u> |Anthony|, I think unetbootin loads wont get you the correct early gui for the f6 option though, not sure how you loaded the usb.
[03:34] <|Anthony|> startupdiskcreator
[03:35] <urlin2u> |Anthony|, cool just tap the shift you will see a gui that has try install check memory...etc hit f6 and tick nomodeset and boot in.
[03:35] <urlin2u> |Anthony|, the shift at powering on.
[03:35] <|Anthony|> after the bios finishes its thing, tap shift?
[03:36] <urlin2u> |Anthony|, the shift wont interfere with the bios, if your getting straight to the usb boot just tap asap.
[03:37] <|Anthony|> gotcha... thanks
[03:37] <|Anthony|> i'll give it a go
[03:37] <urlin2u> |Anthony|, no problem hope that gets you in.
[12:27] <penguin42> curious; Unity has stopped doing live resize of windows
[13:27] <Ravior> my Update Manager is freezing when checking for updates.
[13:27] <Ravior> More exactly it freezes at "Waiting for update-manager to exit"
[13:27] <Ravior> common bug?
[13:28] <ikonia> checked the bugs database ?
[13:28] <Ravior> now I'm looking for it
[13:31] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[13:35] <Ampelbein> Ravior: most likely bug 894671
[13:42] <Ravior> That is the bug.
[13:42] <Ravior> Thanks
[14:11] <LjL> i have a broken btrfs partition on my drive (won't mount, kernel panic), and the Precise installer gets stuck on it. is there any way to stop it from trying to mount anything?
[14:15] <penguin42> do you want to nuke that partition or just stop it mounting it while you try and do an install?
[14:20] <LjL> penguin42: i'd prefer to keep that partition, in the hope i can recover it sooner or later
[15:18] <penguin42> LjL: You could try changing the type of the partition in fdisk to something very unlinuxy and hope it ignores it
[17:41] <kbroulik> 12.04 alpha1 is not available for kubuntu?
[17:42] <penguin42> kbroulik: I've not looked for an install image, but my Kubuntu box happily upgraded
[17:48] <kbroulik> penguin42: hmm
[17:48] <kbroulik> okay
[17:51] <htorque> penguin42: fwiw, found bug 894473 and just confirmed that. i did another install when connected to my AP, but as soon as i wanted to make any changes to the network settings, i got that prompt again.
[17:51] <penguin42> ah good
[17:52] <penguin42> htorque: So you got that during installation?
[17:52] <htorque> after the installation
[17:53] <htorque> will re-reinstall and attach the ubiquity log :-)
[17:54] <penguin42> can you add a comment saying it happens for you and the details
[17:54] <htorque> yeah, once i got the log
[17:54]  * penguin42 marked it as High
[17:55] <htorque> thanks - hard to believe that's the only report about it.
[17:56] <penguin42> yeh, if you find another one dupe it
[17:57] <penguin42> htorque: It's quite possible the problem isn't actually network-manager, but ubuiquity or gksu
[18:33] <FernandoMiguel> anyone has ANY idea how to get back the alt-tab WHILE dragging ?
[18:34] <FernandoMiguel> I had that (finally) on 11.10 and can't get it back on Unity
[18:34] <FernandoMiguel> took me years to get that working on Metacity
[18:34] <FernandoMiguel> :(
[18:35] <penguin42> while dragging?
[18:35] <FernandoMiguel> penguin42: yeah. click on a file and drag to another app
[18:35] <FernandoMiguel> once you click, alt+tab won't work
[18:37] <penguin42> ooh, I just managed to crash Dolphin in KDE trying that
[18:38] <FernandoMiguel> ahahahahahahahahaahahahah
[18:38] <penguin42> so much for bragging rights on that :-(
[18:47] <penguin42> now KDE bug 288750
[18:48] <FernandoMiguel> penguin42: would mind poping into unity and try ?
[18:48] <penguin42> FernandoMiguel: Sure, I've got Unity on this <---- machine
[18:49] <FernandoMiguel> :D
[18:50] <penguin42> FernandoMiguel: Yep, it ignores the alt-tab; you can do it from Unity's find files
[18:51] <FernandoMiguel> find files??
[18:51] <FernandoMiguel> I'm trying to drag photos INTO chrome
[18:51] <penguin42> Yeh, click the unity thing - top icon in the dock, and click find files
[18:51] <penguin42> FernandoMiguel: You can drag a file from there
[18:53] <FernandoMiguel> hummmmmmm
[18:53] <FernandoMiguel> penguin42: but not INTO chrome :\
[18:54] <penguin42> ah, haven't got chrome on <---- machine
[19:01] <bjsnider> wow, hard drive prices are high
[19:03] <Ian_Corne> flooding :(
[19:03] <penguin42> apparently they've got the factories going again, so I guess they might come down a little - but they're not going to do quickly - not now they've had an opportunity to put them up
[19:04] <bjsnider> yes i know why, i'm just amazed at the level of the increase, i mean prices have tripled
[19:04] <penguin42> it's because they got scarce enough that people couldn't sell products with them in
[19:06] <bjsnider> thailand doesn't strike me as a good place to have a hard drive factory
[19:06] <bjsnider> it's constantly being flooded
[19:18] <FernandoMiguel> bjsnider: I'm selling my old used drives :D at a price higher than I bought newer bigger ones
[19:32] <bjsnider> that's the next step is a big market for used drives
[19:34] <penguin42> bjsnider: There already is
[19:37] <penguin42> bjsnider: There is a 'manufacturer' called MDT - as I understand it all there stuff is 'recertified'
[20:54] <NightDog> Hey, when I try to install the ubuntu Precise daily iso, Ubiquity takes forever to continue from the "Prepare to install Ubuntu" screen when I click continue. dmesg only gives me a couple of lines about XFS Quota Managemen. Any other place to look for information on why it is taking so long?
[22:41] <HFSPLUS> Whats up everyone?
[22:41] <HFSPLUS> How the fuck r u?
[22:42] <FernandoMiguel> sad sad ppl
