JonathanDinstall failed.13:21
InHisNamewell its toast now13:22

InHisNameI got a problem with my 11.10.  When it tries the updates, every thing goes well until the end when it gives me an error.   It's pasted here: http://pastebin.com/8Haw1wk414:27

ssweenyInHisName, line 108: gzip: stdout: No space left on device14:28
ssweenythere's your problem right there14:28
InHisNamethat's /boot14:29
InHisNamewhat can I remove from /boot   that I wont be needing ?     how many older versions of kernels do I need for 11.10 ?14:30
ssweenyInHisName, if the latest kernel works for you then you can remove all the older ones14:36
InHisNameHow to view the boot options screen without booting ?  viewing text ok.14:37
InHisNameMaybe there are older ones than in boot options14:38
ssweenyInHisName, /boot/grub/grub.cfg has the list. every line that starts with menuentry is an entry on that screen14:39
InHisNameok I'll look14:40
InHisNameI got bunches of them.  about 11 diff ones.14:45
InHisNamewhat is best way to trim out and keep last 4 or so.     rm 26.28.* etc. or some grub way ?  The rm....wouldn't fix grub14:47
ssweenyInHisName, you want to remove the kernel packages15:03
ChinnoDogsup turkey15:07
ssweenyInHisName, the easiest way to get rid of the old kernel packages is probably to use synaptic and look for the 'local or obsolete' status15:10

EvilResistanceInHisName:  install those packages?16:03
InHisNameEvilResistance: are they really packages and not libs or something else ?16:03

EvilResistancethose're packages :)16:04
InHisNameso's can I use apt-get for them ?   or do I need to use a xx.deb ?16:04
EvilResistanceInHisName:  and of course those are packages, if you're installing from a .deb you downloaded, then dpkg is returning that the Required: line's packages aren't installed16:04
EvilResistanceAPT-GET16:04
EvilResistancehow many years have you been using Debian/Ubuntu again?16:05
InHisNameok, will go for it.16:05
EvilResistance(also, when you do !info [package] precise, it checks the current repos :P16:05
EvilResistance)16:05
EvilResistance(sorry if i seem overly defensive, Precise is giving me all sorts of crap)16:06
InHisNamemanaged to get all the parts installed and run ubuntu-tweak  --> now have freed 21MB from /boot   lunch first.16:40
InHisNameOk, I now have space on /boot again.17:51
InHisNameBUT, I am not booting with 3.0.0.17 but with 2.6.38.11 or whatever that last digit was.17:52
InHisNameI have 3.0.011 thru 17  but none are booting only the old one is.   How to fix  all are in /boot.   I did ->sudo update-grub  before rebooting.17:54
InHisNametried running    sudo update-grub   again and rebooted     STILL shows 2.6.38-1118:34
n2diy_I'm trying to get qtel to work, but when I start it from the cli I'm getting a "no such file or directory" error. I googled the problem, and set alsa as my default sound device, but still no go, ideas?19:10
InHisNameis grup v1.99 NOT same as grub2 ?19:13

InHisNameOn bootup, I see at top:   1.99   13ubuntu3              ===> grub-install -v    produces  grub-install (GRUB) 1.99-12ubuntu519:46
InHisNameDo I have 2 boot areas.  One that boots and other that is seen by grub-install ?19:46
passstabthat sounds like a reasonable hypothesis19:50
InHisNameso how to have grub-install etc operate on the bootable one instead ?19:58
EvilResistancetell it where to install to?19:58
EvilResistanceor change which partition has the boot flag19:59
