| CaptainKnots | is it common for 12.04 to still say 11.10 all over the place? | 02:34 |
| === rcmaehl is now known as why | ||
| FernandoMiguel | CaptainKnots: UI wise, yes | 02:38 |
| 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 | 02:50 |
| bazhang | !final | 02:59 |
| ubottu | If you install a development version of Ubuntu Precise and keep up with package updates, then you will be upgraded to the official release of 12.04 when it comes out. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a terminal. | 02:59 |
| |Anthony| | well that there answered my question and i didn't even have to ask | 03:00 |
| |Anthony| | love that | 03:00 |
| |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 | 03:02 |
| |Anthony| | as in ubottu's !final response | 03:03 |
| |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 | 03:06 |
| CaptainKnots | unity actually is pretty cool...I've heard a lot of bad things about it but I like it | 03:07 |
| |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 | 03:18 |
| |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 | 03:19 |
| urlin2u | |Anthony|, have you tried a nomodeset option by tapping shift as you power on and then f6 to get to that choice? | 03:30 |
| |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 | 03:32 |
| 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. | 03:33 |
| |Anthony| | startupdiskcreator | 03:34 |
| 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? | 03:35 |
| urlin2u | |Anthony|, the shift wont interfere with the bios, if your getting straight to the usb boot just tap asap. | 03:36 |
| |Anthony| | gotcha... thanks | 03:37 |
| |Anthony| | i'll give it a go | 03:37 |
| urlin2u | |Anthony|, no problem hope that gets you in. | 03:37 |

| penguin42 | curious; Unity has stopped doing live resize of windows | 12:27 |
| 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? | 13:27 |
| ikonia | checked the bugs database ? | 13:28 |
| Ravior | now I'm looking for it | 13:28 |
| BluesKaj | Hi all | 13:31 |
| Ampelbein | Ravior: most likely bug 894671 | 13:35 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 894671 in update-manager (Ubuntu Precise) "update-manager freezes after initialization" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/894671 | 13:35 |
| Ravior | That is the bug. | 13:42 |
| Ravior | Thanks | 13:42 |
| 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? | 14:11 |
| penguin42 | do you want to nuke that partition or just stop it mounting it while you try and do an install? | 14:15 |
| LjL | penguin42: i'd prefer to keep that partition, in the hope i can recover it sooner or later | 14:20 |
| penguin42 | LjL: You could try changing the type of the partition in fdisk to something very unlinuxy and hope it ignores it | 15:18 |
| kbroulik | 12.04 alpha1 is not available for kubuntu? | 17:41 |
| penguin42 | kbroulik: I've not looked for an install image, but my Kubuntu box happily upgraded | 17:42 |
| kbroulik | penguin42: hmm | 17:48 |
| kbroulik | okay | 17:48 |
| 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 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 894473 in network-manager (Ubuntu) "when connecting to a wireless network, gksu asks for password root , but root has no password" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/894473 | 17:51 |
| penguin42 | ah good | 17:51 |
| penguin42 | htorque: So you got that during installation? | 17:52 |
| htorque | after the installation | 17:52 |
| htorque | will re-reinstall and attach the ubiquity log :-) | 17:53 |
| 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 | 17:54 | |
| htorque | thanks - hard to believe that's the only report about it. | 17:55 |
| penguin42 | yeh, if you find another one dupe it | 17:56 |
| penguin42 | htorque: It's quite possible the problem isn't actually network-manager, but ubuiquity or gksu | 17:57 |
| FernandoMiguel | anyone has ANY idea how to get back the alt-tab WHILE dragging ? | 18:33 |
| 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 | :( | 18:34 |
| 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 | 18:35 |
| penguin42 | ooh, I just managed to crash Dolphin in KDE trying that | 18:37 |
| FernandoMiguel | ahahahahahahahahaahahahah | 18:38 |
| penguin42 | so much for bragging rights on that :-( | 18:38 |
| penguin42 | now KDE bug 288750 | 18:47 |
| ubottu | KDE bug 288750 in general "crash on drag + alt-tab" [Crash,Unconfirmed] http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=288750 | 18:47 |
| FernandoMiguel | penguin42: would mind poping into unity and try ? | 18:48 |
| penguin42 | FernandoMiguel: Sure, I've got Unity on this <---- machine | 18:48 |
| FernandoMiguel | :D | 18:49 |
| penguin42 | FernandoMiguel: Yep, it ignores the alt-tab; you can do it from Unity's find files | 18:50 |
| 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 | 18:51 |
| FernandoMiguel | hummmmmmm | 18:53 |
| FernandoMiguel | penguin42: but not INTO chrome :\ | 18:53 |
| penguin42 | ah, haven't got chrome on <---- machine | 18:54 |
| bjsnider | wow, hard drive prices are high | 19:01 |
| 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 | 19:03 |
| 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 | 19:04 |
| bjsnider | thailand doesn't strike me as a good place to have a hard drive factory | 19:06 |
| bjsnider | it's constantly being flooded | 19:06 |
| FernandoMiguel | bjsnider: I'm selling my old used drives :D at a price higher than I bought newer bigger ones | 19:18 |
| bjsnider | that's the next step is a big market for used drives | 19:32 |
| penguin42 | bjsnider: There already is | 19:34 |
| penguin42 | bjsnider: There is a 'manufacturer' called MDT - as I understand it all there stuff is 'recertified' | 19:37 |
| 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? | 20:54 |
