[01:07] whats [01:08] not much [01:08] cool [01:08] trying to get this IRC client working, looks like it does. [01:08] we see you that is for sure [01:09] alright, thanks. [01:14] what does the "/n" referr to in ip-addresses? [01:14] give an example [01:14] as in 192.168.0.0/16 [01:15] port? [01:15] that is a representation of the subnet mask i believe [01:15] no [01:15] hold on and i will find a site that can better explain [01:15] if it was a port it would be 192.168.0.8:16 [01:15] rr [01:15] davkbod-ld, /16 means that the last two blocks of digits dont matter [01:16] yeah... : is for ports.. like 192.168.0.22:8080 [01:16] so the last octet is disregarded [01:17] or last two octcts (da** this keyboard!) [01:18] means it has 255.255.0.0 subnet mask does it not? [01:19] thx [01:19] davkbod-ld, yes. if this were a filter you would only match on the first two octets [01:20] cul, thx...back to the other window... === OutOfControl_ is now known as OutOfControl [03:10] Is there anyone familiar with this.. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/+bug/526321 [03:10] Launchpad bug 526321 in plymouth "System does not booth with last plymouth. SAK needed to unlock it." [Undecided,Fix released] [03:11] I seem to be having this problem and can't boot my 10.04 install [03:11] or something similar [03:11] Culiforge: have you tried an earlier kernel? [03:11] holstein: how do I go about doing that.. I can't boot into the os [03:12] holstein: with either normal or rescue mode from grub [03:16] Culiforge: that would be in grub [03:16] an older kernel [03:16] if you dont have one, you dont have one [03:16] holstein: nope, pretty sure I dont' have one.. it's not in the grub menu [03:17] Culiforge: i keep a few around [03:17] i keep the last one that worked, and the current one that is being updated [03:18] holstein: outta luck then? I don't remember updating the kernel so it would have been whichever was most current when I installed about 2 months ago from ubuntu [03:18] Culiforge: its an LTS... it gets updates [03:19] i would boot with a live CD and scan and try and repair the disk [03:20] its modular, so depending on what hardware that installation is configured to use, you can take the hard drive to another machine [03:21] holstein: I can only assume the nvidia driver install messed it up somehow... I was just trying to take it one problem at a time [03:22] holstein: at least get to a recovery startup.. [03:23] I've already backed up my home dir.. I may just reinstall.. [03:25] holstein: everyone here was very helpful with trying to get me straightened out after my nvidia installation... but to no avail. I installed 11.04 on another partition so I could get back to work [03:25] no need to reinstall [03:25] untill you try to repair [03:26] philipballew: how so? [03:27] i would avoid reinstalling if you have a problem untill the system is compromised so a reinstall is the only way. you can also attempt to boot with a liveusb and fix from there [03:27] I wonder if chrooting into the machine from a live usb then installing a updated kernal ppa is possible [03:28] yeah, at least you can learn from it too [03:28] i mean, it cant get any more broken :) [03:28] philipballew: holstein: I'm all for it if you wanna help me out [03:28] holstein: oh yes It can [03:28] well, i would do what i said first [03:29] i would run some tests on the hard drive from a live CD.. then test the file system [03:29] holstein: live cd and repair? [03:29] Culiforge: yup [03:29] holstein: I've done that several times... clean as a whistle [03:30] cool [03:30] holstein: posted the boot script output and everyone had a look at it [03:31] with just the one kernel, it can be something simple with it, and you are just locked out [03:31] Culiforge, you still have the script? [03:31] holstein: well, the link I first posted is the error I get [03:32] urfr332g0: just ran another.. was expecting someone to ask... :) http://paste.ubuntu.com/839967/ [03:33] Culiforge, which is the broken one by hd and partition? [03:33] and the latest install [03:34] urfr332g0: sdb1 on the WD80 [03:34] Culiforge, the broken one? [03:34] urfr332g0: yes [03:35] urfr332g0: I hope that's what you wanted to know [03:35] urfr332g0: it's a 10.04 install [03:35] yeah you have run a updte-grub from the latest install and have that HD as first in the bios [03:35] update-grub* [03:36] urfr332g0: "that HD" as in the os I'm currently running or the broken one? [03:37] Culiforge, the latest install [03:37] yeah, tahts a good idea. cant hurt [03:37] you said you had a new install to get back to work. [03:37] urfr332g0: that's been done recently as well [03:37] thats* [03:37] urfr332g0: yes, I'm currently in 11.10 [03:38] urfr332g0: 11.10 first in the grub menu [03:39] Culiforge, is that HD first in the bios though you have 3 hd's with grub bootloaders in their mbr's [03:40] also what happens if you chhose the broken one from the grub menu? [03:40] choose [03:40] urfr332g0: hrmmm, I'd have to drop out and check... choose broken one... hangs with a pid error and I get a "loading , please wait" msg. [03:41] Culiforge, personally I would make sure your booting the HD that is the 11.10, and then boot to that and run a suddo updte-gerub and see if the broken boots. [03:42] sudo update-grub opps sorry [03:42] urfr332g0: ok, I'll try that.. bbiab [03:42] Culiforge, you could also try a supergrub disc and see if it gets you into the broken one. [03:43] urfr332g0: ok, I'll try that as well [03:43] holstein, quite the conundrum for sure. :) [03:44] I just have some basic tools in this situation. [03:53] urfr332g0: updating grub... [03:54] back out [04:01] urfr332g0: same old same old on the grub update... now I'm getting error: ata time out.. .. disk problems? [04:02] Culiforge, could it be a broken disc? [04:02] Culiforge, not sure beyond just checking all the regular boot stuff really [04:02] as you did [04:02] urfr332g0: how can I be currently running 11.10 from a broken disk?... [04:08] Culiforge, I thought you meant the broken OS choice gave you errors. [04:10] the sdc is the 11.04 the sdb is the broken sdc would be first in the bios if tat is what you did. [04:11] urfr332g0: yes, the broken 10.04 gives some pid error to do with plymouth [04:11] sdc is first in bios [04:12] Culiforge, beyond me have you tried a nomodeset in the sdb1 kernel? [04:12] urfr332g0: yes I have [04:13] Culiforge, not sure beyond that the other user holstein is much more exsperienced I just saw the bootscript refrence and was interested. [04:14] urfr332g0: thanks for the assist tho [04:14] soory if I interrupted. ;( [04:14] bbiab, gonna try supergrubdisk [04:15] Culiforge, usually it is just for broken boots it sounds like your getting in. === Culiforge is now known as cul_away === yofel_ is now known as yofel === head_v is now known as head_victim === amithkk is now known as nicknametaken === nicknametaken is now known as amithkk [13:28] Hi.

[21:17] I think that ubuntu 11.04 seems a bit slower but i get better battery life? [21:17] Should be using 11.10 rather than 11.04 [21:18] good point, but in older slower machines is not better to use older versions ? [21:18] I think they worked on battery stuff, but Unity isn't as light. [21:20] In that case, you can use either Xubuntu, Lubuntu, or maybe Kubuntu. Not as good to stay on releases between LTS's when there's a newer one, IMO. [21:22] yeah, by the time i used 11.04 I was on Lubuntu, however I remeber 10.04 to perform better (or is just that i can't remeber) [21:28] The core is the same, so it could be the core being slower. === OutOfControl_ is now known as OutOfControl
