| danielboston26 | does anyone ever talk here? | 01:36 |
| DracoDanLRPC | ugh, ubuntu is so confusing! I updated my kernel from 3.5rc7 to 3.5 final, but after reboot it's still rc7. I figured "okay, this will be easy, just need to update grub.conf....." (my background is mostly RHEL | 01:38 |
| DracoDanLRPC | ) | 01:38 |
| danielboston26 | welcome dracodanlrpc | 01:38 |
| danielboston26 | you and me both are the only ones talking | 01:39 |
| DracoDanLRPC | ty | 01:39 |
| TJ- | DracoDanLRPC: How did you update the kernel? From the Ubuntu mainline kernel packages? | 01:39 |
| DracoDanLRPC | yeah, nothing unusual | 01:39 |
| TJ- | Have you checked the expected versions are listed in "/boot/" ? | 01:40 |
| danielboston26 | TJ can you help me | 01:40 |
| TJ- | danielboston26: sorry, no | 01:40 |
| DracoDanLRPC | no, from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ | 01:40 |
| TJ- | DracoDanLRPC: Yes, those are the ones I use too. | 01:40 |
| TJ- | DracoDanLRPC: So you downloaded the 3/4 required .deb files then used "sudo dpkg -i <list of files>" to install it ? | 01:41 |
| DracoDanLRPC | I started with 12.04, upgraded to kernel 3.5rc7 (which I was told wouldnt work, but it did), then updated to 12.10. lastly I did... yeah, exactly that :-) | 01:42 |
| TJ- | DracoDanLRPC: You need install 3 packages for whichever architecture you're using... linux-image linux-image-extra linux-headers | 01:42 |
| DracoDanLRPC | linux-headers-3.5.0-030500_3.5.0-030500.201207211835_all.deb | 01:42 |
| DracoDanLRPC | linux-headers-3.5.0-030500-generic_3.5.0-030500.201207211835_amd64.deb | 01:42 |
| DracoDanLRPC | linux-image-3.5.0-030500-generic_3.5.0-030500.201207211835_amd64.deb | 01:42 |
| DracoDanLRPC | linux-linux-image-extra-3.5.0-030500-generic_3.5.0-030500.201207211835_amd64.deb | 01:42 |
| TJ- | DracoDanLRPC: as well as linux-headers* all | 01:42 |
| DracoDanLRPC | sorry for flood | 01:42 |
| TJ- | DracoDanLRPC: That's ok. Those are the ones. So you've got them locally... how did you install them? | 01:43 |
| DracoDanLRPC | sudo dpkg -i linux-*.deb | 01:43 |
| danielboston26 | anyone else in this room can help me out? | 01:44 |
| TJ- | DracoDanLRPC: OK, so the vmlinux* config* initrd* should be in /boot/ | 01:44 |
| TJ- | DracoDanLRPC: and dpkg should have forced update-grub to run, too | 01:44 |
| TJ- | DracoDanLRPC: If those files are in /boot/ then I'd suggest first trying to do "sudo update-grub" | 01:44 |
| DracoDanLRPC | TJ-: http://pastebin.com/ZNhwQ6fW | 01:45 |
| DracoDanLRPC | looks like everything to me... | 01:45 |

| danielboston26 | TJ it would if i knew how to edit that file | 01:46 |
| TJ- | DracoDanLRPC: edit which file | 01:46 |
| DracoDanLRPC | shit, I have two different "3.5" kernels | 01:46 |
| danielboston26 | i burned the img to a usb key | 01:46 |
| DracoDanLRPC | TJ-: too manys Dans, dont confuse us :-P | 01:46 |
| TJ- | danielboston26: you can press a key at startup to cause you to see the bootloader's menu, then edit the boot command line. I think it will be the shift key... press as soon as the BIOS messages go by | 01:47 |
| DracoDanLRPC | ugh, means I have to go to my basement! | 01:47 |
| DracoDanLRPC | bbiam | 01:47 |
| TJ- | DracoDanLRPC: I have an idea!!! | 01:48 |
| TJ- | DracoDanLRPC: Some of those kernels you have listed on pastebin may be considered 'more recent' that the 3.5.0 version... so my bet is, 3.5.0 is listed in the GRUB menu under "Previous Linux versions" | 01:49 |
| TJ- | DracoDanLRPC: Like i said to dan... you need to hold down Shift when the PC boots past the BIOS to get to the grub menu, then select the correct entry. | 01:49 |
| Fudge | any ideas about failed on url http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/quantal-desktop-i386.iso.zsync | 01:58 |

| Hanmac | centrelink when you open it from the bash, does it print output? | 15:27 |
| centrelink | Hanmac, yeah always dumps core, no matter what | 15:27 |
| centrelink | sec | 15:27 |
| Hanmac | i maybe cant help you with that ... it was only a sugestion | 15:27 |
| TJ- | centrelink: Worth running it under gdb, with the -dbgsym packages installed | 15:35 |

| Hanmac | i get the Fontconfig warnings too ... ubuntu should update this packages :( | 15:37 |
| Hanmac | TJ- could you help me when i show you some Xorg-backtrace? (there is some kind of Segmentationfault) | 15:38 |
| TJ- | Hanmac: I doubt it, Xorg is scary! | 15:38 |
| TJ- | Unless it's being run synchronously backtraces often don't relate to where an error occurred | 15:39 |
| centrelink | *** glibc detected *** banshee: malloc(): memory corruption (fast): 0x09561a37 *** | 15:39 |
| centrelink | wat | 15:39 |
| Hanmac | TJ- http://pastebin.com/h28J5YWq << there is a backtrace at the end ... | 15:58 |
| TJ- | Hanmac: that's been a longstanding problem with Xorg, the mi event queue overflowing due to some other faulty module | 16:00 |
| TJ- | Hanmac: identifying the cause isn't trivial | 16:01 |
| Hanmac | i thought it may be a problem in drm_radeon ... | 16:02 |
| TJ- | It often is! I was working on that bug about 2 years ago! | 16:02 |
| Hanmac | my currently bug is that something turned my scene white ... and its still white on tty | 16:03 |
| TJ- | I was using ssh to do a remote gdb on it, but I never got to the source of the issue | 16:05 |
| Hanmac | i installing dbg packages ... maybe the backtrace will be more informative the next time ... | 16:05 |
| TJ- | Hanmac: It won't - because the backtrace is generated in a different thread from where the problem lies. The backtrace is caused because the queue isn't being emptied in another thread | 16:08 |
| IdleOne | If I have a 20GB partition (sda8) after my /home (sda2) How can I move it to the end of my / (sda1) so I can increase the size of / ? | 16:46 |
| IdleOne | I have apparently run of of space on / and am no longer able to install/update any packages. I tried removing all extra installed kernels but I still get errors about runout of disk space. | 16:47 |
| Hanmac | idleOne i think the best way would be to get an live cd an then try to reorder the partions | 16:48 |
| TJ- | IdleOne: You could think about converting all the partitions with spare space into LVM physical volumes, adding them to one volume group, and then creating a logical volume for /home/, copy sda2 into the LV, and update /etc/fstab, then expand sda1 into the space released by not using sda2 ? | 16:50 |
| Hanmac | idleOne so you want to delete your sda8 right? ... when you did you could move the partions one-by-one and then resize the / | 16:51 |
| IdleOne | Hanmac: if I delete sda8 I end up with unallocated space, can I then move sda2 onto/over that unallocated space? | 16:54 |
| Hanmac | i think you could | 16:55 |
| IdleOne | I think I might just end up backing everything up and starting over fresh. | 16:56 |
| IdleOne | problem is I don't have enough free space right now. | 16:56 |
| TJ- | IdleOne: I recommend using LVM if you do; it makes reallocation of space trivially easy | 16:57 |
| IdleOne | TJ-: your LVM solution scares me because I don't understand it | 16:57 |
| TJ- | Idle I have everything except /boot/ in LVM ... root, /home/ /var/ and others | 16:58 |
| IdleOne | I'll read up on LVM and educate myself some. | 16:58 |
| TJ- | IdleOne: Using LVM you can extend and shrink volumes at will from a free pool, | 16:58 |
| Hanmac | idleOne: maybe you have partions like this: [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] | 16:58 |
| Hanmac | after deleting 8 you get this: [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][free] | 16:58 |
| Hanmac | then move around: [1][2][free][3][4][5][6][7] | 16:58 |
| Hanmac | then resize: [1][2big][3][4][5][6][7] | 16:58 |
| TJ- | IdleOne: I usually configure the HDD with the first partition for /boot/ then the second allocated as a PV... and then put / /home/ /var/ in separate LVs in the VG, and keep space unallocated | 16:59 |
| TJ- | Hanmac: Moving partitions around is a costly business in time especially if they're large. Often fast to copy them off to another spare hard drive | 17:00 |
| TJ- | Hanmac reads and writes on the same drive slows things down alot | 17:01 |
| Hanmac | TJ- yeah but he may have not enougth space to copy the partions around ... | 17:01 |
| TJ- | Hanmac: Best course is to shrink the file-systems down to the minimum they can be, then move them to a safe place, then release their partitions. Often, file-systems use much less space than they have been allocated | 17:02 |
| TJ- | Often its best to do that after booting from a liveCD/USB image, so the hard disk isn't in use | 17:03 |
| IdleOne | thanks for the answers Hanmac and TJ- I think the simplest way is going to be for me to get the needed storage for backup and then start with a fresh LVM | 17:08 |
| Hanmac | i will try LVM too but not before the next great rebuild (new mainboard + and others) | 17:23 |
| simplygades | Hello! | 17:29 |
| simplygades | Has anyone tried Quantal on GMA500 hardware? | 17:32 |
| Hanmac | oO was this advertising? | 17:33 |
| ls612 | Hi. | 18:19 |
| ls612 | Could someone please point me at instructions for setting up Quantal Quetzal as a Virtual Machine? | 18:20 |
| wilee-nilee | ls612, have you ever use vbox? | 18:22 |
| wilee-nilee | used* | 18:23 |
| ls612 | No. | 18:23 |
| wilee-nilee | Ah, okay that is a commonly used virtual machine hold on I will get you a link | 18:24 |
| wilee-nilee | you going to run it in linux, MS, or Apple | 18:25 |
| ls612 | Windows 7. | 18:25 |
| ls612 | I'm setting it up as a VM so that it won't damage anything important. | 18:25 |
| ls612 | as it is still alpha. | 18:25 |
| wilee-nilee | cool, here is the download, install it and use the ISO of Quantal I can walk you through it. https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads | 18:26 |
| wilee-nilee | not sure where its at as far as names never really matters here. ;) | 18:27 |
| wilee-nilee | here is the info alpha 3 what ever that means I never really pay attention to that part myself. http://fridge.ubuntu.com/2012/07/26/12-10-quantal-quetzal-alpha-3-released/ | 18:28 |
| wilee-nilee | I'm in 9 channels so use my nic to contact me here type in a few leters of it and hit tab to complete and I will be notified you posted. ;) | 18:30 |
| wilee-nilee | letters* | 18:30 |
| wilee-nilee | VM's wont effect the host=W7, in any case generally. | 18:31 |
| wilee-nilee | ls612, Do you have the quantal ISO? | 18:41 |
| ls612 | wilee-nilee: 75% dled | 18:41 |
| wilee-nilee | ls612, cool I'm just hanging so this should be pretty straight forward, download the exstension pack on that vbox link as well if you want what it provides. | 18:42 |
| ls612 | wilee-nilee: ok, I have vbox and the extension installed and the iso downloaded, what do I do next? | 18:46 |
| wilee-nilee | ls612, So kopen vbox and hit new | 18:48 |
| wilee-nilee | name it and identify the OS in the following screens | 18:48 |
| wilee-nilee | how much ram is on the computer? | 18:49 |
| ls612 | 8 GB | 18:49 |
| Hanmac | there should be an autorun function: "install medium detected: do you want to create an VM?" :'D | 18:49 |
| wilee-nilee | cool I would give quantal at least a gig you can adjust this as you want whenever you want. | 18:50 |
| wilee-nilee | choose the vdi in the next screen, am I explaining this okay? | 18:51 |
| ls612 | wilee-nilee: what should I select, create new hard disk? | 18:52 |
| wilee-nilee | you are creating one in the virtual you don'y\t have one as of now it is the container for quantal | 18:53 |
| wilee-nilee | don't* | 18:53 |
| wilee-nilee | If you had a OS that had been set up already you could choose use existing disc to reload it to vbox. | 18:54 |
| ls612 | wilee-nilee: OK, it says my virtual disk will be created in 18 min | 18:56 |
| ls612 | *16 | 18:57 |
| wilee-nilee | hmm I have never seen that can you make a screen shot of that? | 18:57 |
| wilee-nilee | put the screen shot here. http://imagebin.org/index.php?page=add | 19:00 |
| wilee-nilee | I have used vbox in W7 I don't recall seeing a time on creating it, did you choose the vdi type? | 19:01 |
| ls612 | wilee-nilee: It says 'creating fixed medium storage unit', and then the filepath to my vbox VMs folder. | 19:02 |
| ls612 | yes I chose vdi, and chose 64 GB for the virtual disk size | 19:02 |
| ls612 | my 1 TB HD will not miss those 64 gigs. | 19:03 |
| wilee-nilee | ls612, hmm I have only used about 10 to 15 gigs on a ubuntu, it may be that the larger needs building, not sure really. | 19:03 |
| wilee-nilee | I just install open source stuff in a partition, I rarely use a virtual, but I understand others may. | 19:05 |
| wilee-nilee | Ah they choose the fixed size rather then dynamic box hehe. | 19:16 |
| ls612 | wilee-nilee: OK, I now have one virtual machine in the Vbox menu, what do I do next? | 19:34 |
| wilee-nilee | let me get to where you are in a vbox. | 19:35 |
| ls612 | OK | 19:35 |
| wilee-nilee | open the settings | 19:36 |
| wilee-nilee | go to storage and link the cd to the ISO | 19:36 |
| wilee-nilee | mine says id secondary with a dropdown to choose a virtual cd/dvd file find th ISO with that. | 19:38 |
| wilee-nilee | the* | 19:38 |
| ls612 | OK, it is now linked, do I click OK? | 19:39 |
| wilee-nilee | yyeah | 19:39 |
| ls612 | and then start? | 19:39 |
| wilee-nilee | now in the setting hit display and move the slider to at least 128 | 19:40 |
| wilee-nilee | 128 mb | 19:40 |
| wilee-nilee | this is video memory | 19:40 |
| ls612 | Will it matter if I have an integrated gfx card? | 19:41 |
| wilee-nilee | not sure there really | 19:41 |
| ls612 | Should I check the acceleration boxes? | 19:41 |
| wilee-nilee | the box uses the card with its own drivers | 19:41 |
| wilee-nilee | you could hit the 3d if you like | 19:42 |
| ls612 | OK, what should I do next? | 19:42 |
| wilee-nilee | ls612, you can close it and then start it, the setings in general is the key to add like usb devices and a shared file along with what you have done already and other options, used with the machine off in general | 19:43 |
| wilee-nilee | I had you link the ISO first and set the display just to make things easier this is the way I do it. | 19:44 |
| wilee-nilee | I figured out you used the fixed box rather then the dynamic, this had it making time to make the machine that is okay. | 19:45 |
| ls612 | So I am in the VM now. Should I just use the normal Ubuntu install? | 19:46 |
| wilee-nilee | ls612, yeah just choose the top install to the whole disc, it is just to the disc you made. | 19:48 |
| wilee-nilee | the install to disc when you get there, tick the update and 3rd party boxes on the way there in a earlier gui | 19:49 |
| ls612 | wilee-nilee: How do I change the VM resolution, currently it is too small | 19:49 |
| wilee-nilee | ls612, you will add a guest adon when you're installed that will give you a full screen | 19:50 |
| wilee-nilee | addon* | 19:50 |
| wilee-nilee | That will be after rebooting the install | 19:50 |
| wilee-nilee | install is about 20 min generally if you have medium to fast download for the updates etc. | 19:54 |
| wilee-nilee | nly be goI'm going to get some thai food to go in about 10, min close by so I will gone about 10min, I will let you know when I leave. ;) lunch time here. | 19:57 |
| wilee-nilee | I will be* | 19:57 |
| IdleOne | Can I mount /tmp to sda8 (20GB partition) and will it work? | 20:06 |
| IdleOne | or maybe link it? | 20:07 |
| wilee-nilee | ls612, I'm going for lunch I will be back shortly I will let you know when I am back. | 20:07 |
| wilee-nilee | ls612 I'm back | 20:22 |
| ls612 | Cool, it is done installing. How do I get it to run full-screen? | 20:23 |
| wilee-nilee | ls612, have you rebooted? | 20:23 |
| ls612 | yes. | 20:23 |
| wilee-nilee | in the top panel is a dropdown I forget which button, look for guest addons it should autostart when you tick it I believe in windows | 20:24 |
| ls612 | wilee-nilee: the top panel of vbox? | 20:25 |
| wilee-nilee | yeah | 20:25 |

| wilee-nilee | to* | 20:27 |
| wilee-nilee | ls612, I have found ubuntu to run a bit chunky in a vbox, but I never really have enough ram to allocate as I only have 2 gigs overall, you experience may be different though. Ubuntu flys on a partitioned install here. | 20:31 |
| ls612 | it runs fine for me, but there is a vbox error with the guest addons. | 20:32 |
| ls612 | where can I post the screenie? | 20:32 |
| wilee-nilee | http://imagebin.org/index.php?page=add | 20:32 |
| ls612 | http://imagebin.org/223681 | 20:33 |
| wilee-nilee | The original iso for install is probably tick look in that top bar for the addons to be ticked if that is not what got you to this erreor | 20:35 |
| wilee-nilee | ticked? | 20:35 |
| wilee-nilee | look in computer as well to see if you see the addons showing | 20:36 |
| wilee-nilee | like a cd would look | 20:36 |
| ls612 | OK it works now. Which addon(s) should I install? | 20:36 |
| wilee-nilee | what is the choice | 20:36 |
| wilee-nilee | you didn;t get the autostart, chose the windows .exe if it says .exe | 20:37 |
| ls612 | http://imagebin.org/223682 | 20:37 |
| wilee-nilee | vbox windows x86 is 32 bit and the other is 64 | 20:38 |
| wilee-nilee | choose per your computers setup I believe I have never had a 64 bit setup my self | 20:39 |
| wilee-nilee | I assume you probably are 64 bit with 8 gigs ram, an assumption only though | 20:40 |
| ls612 | yes, but I get another error. | 20:43 |
| ls612 | http://pastebin.com/qgWqCnbY | 20:43 |
| ls612 | except in place of *name removed* is my name | 20:44 |
| wilee-nilee | Not sure really I have never had and error here, there is a vbox channel as well if nobody here knows what is up. #vbox | 20:45 |
| ls612 | wilee-nilee: another error, http://imagebin.org/223685 | 20:48 |
| wilee-nilee | I think it is safe to run the force I think the problem is that the install ISO is ticked rather then the guest addons | 20:49 |
| wilee-nilee | When I reboot a install I remove the iso from the machine basically | 20:50 |
| wilee-nilee | you are booted to the install right not the live cd, I had to ask lol | 20:51 |
| ls612 | yes, and it works now. | 20:53 |
| wilee-nilee | cool | 20:53 |
| wilee-nilee | the addons are installing with the force unmount? | 20:54 |
| wilee-nilee | weird syntax on the last error hard to really understand in general, except for the key word quantal. | 20:55 |
| wilee-nilee | once the adons are loaded you can logout then back in they should work then, there are buttons on the machines top that work with the guest addons | 20:56 |
| wilee-nilee | once the machine is running you can close and open the original gui that starts the machine without effecting the running machine if you like. | 20:58 |
