[00:21] New bug: #1044318 in quantum "pre-1.5 OVS has trouble with floating ips when pinging from the same box" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1044318 === cpg is now known as cpg|away [01:44] hello where do i find the motd login file? for server? I like some of ubuntu's default message like the info it provide i would like to add on but /etc/motd/ shows exactly as it sais on login not scripts [03:08] hey peeps, upgraded my server today from jaunty -> karmic -> lucid -> precise but I'm sure I've borked something along the way. I got a kernel panic on reboot after the lucid -> precise upgrade and it looks like it's caused by the default kernel in /boot/grub/menu.lst not having any initrd.img file associated with it. [03:10] I've got a mediocre KVM over IP console up, so I can't even pastebin the menu.lst, but I'm wondering if I need the default entry that's there. Right below the "Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS, kernel Default" (and its associated Recovery entry), I've got what looks like a legit 3.2.0-29-generic kernel entry. [03:11] they are exactly the same [03:11] you can always try it [03:11] but it should be more of the same error [03:12] patdk-lap: well, the one that specifies itself as 3.2.0 also has an 'initrd' line below the 'kernel' line in the menu.lst, which makes me think it's not quite the same as the one above it. [03:12] oh, so just the line is missing, not the file [03:12] it will bot on that fine [03:13] the recovery basically means, no to *hide* stuff by default [03:14] patdk-lap: yeah, I'm saying I've got 4 boot entries total, one labelled "Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS, kernel Default", one labelled "Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS, kernel Default (recovery mode)", one labelled "Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS, kernel 3.2.0-29-generic", and one labelled "Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS, kernel 3.2.0-29-generic (recovery mode)" [03:15] patdk-lap: The ones labelled with the actual 3.2.0 version number have initrd lines, the ones labelled "Default" don't have initrd lines, but they're the default boot target. [03:15] I wonder if those are some xen boot thing, or if it's really messed up [03:16] I want to get rid of the ones labelled "Default", my question is: what's the best way to do that? [03:16] ya, I'm not sure, cause I'm not sure how they got in there [03:16] patdk-lap: even kernels booted under xen need an initrd, no? [03:17] well, kernels don't need initrd's [03:17] but the way ubuntu does it, it's basically required, yes [03:17] patdk-lap: it's not outside the realm of possibility, but this is not a dom0 or domU machine. Bare metal all the way. === n0ts_off is now known as n0ts [03:20] can I just delete entries straight out of /boot/grub/menu.lst? Or do I have to do it through some other method and then run update-grub again? [03:21] Also, on precise, should I be running update-grub2? Because I think I somehow don't have grub2 installed. === n0ts is now known as n0ts_off === n0ts_off is now known as n0ts === cpg|away is now known as cpg === cpg is now known as cpg|away === cpg|away is now known as cpg === unreal is now known as Guest79428 === unreal_ is now known as unreal === n0ts is now known as n0ts_off === n0ts_off is now known as n0ts === n0ts is now known as n0ts_off [09:18] I've got a problem with my Ubuntu 10.04 Server. I'm using smbd and mdadm (raid 5). Now I've got the problem that the server freezes after a time, accessing via smb. Nothing in syslog and RAM seems ok. === troy__ is now known as Troy^ [12:30] Hi there, I am trying to use apt-get install to install a few dependencies for a package named webmin. However i get a message saying that the package is not available, but is referred to by another package. What can I do? === cpg is now known as cpg|away === jglanz is now known as jonny5 === jonny5 is now known as jglanz === gary_poster is now known as gary_poster|away [15:00] where do i find the defalt motd script? like i like how the default has some info about the system i would just like to modify that further and add to it [15:10] in /etc/update-motd.d [15:26] Hi, I would like to change GRUB_DEFAULT in /etc/default/grub, but how on earth can I find out just what integer to put when /etc/grub.d/* shows a mess like several rows looking like http://stevenf.com/notes/index.php/?Create+bootable+ISO+disk+images+in+Linux [15:27] is there a way to do a text-render of the content in /etc/grub.d/* so I now whether to put GRUB_DEFAULT=3,4,5, or whatever? [15:28] Now it feels like fumbling in the dark. [15:29] I want to boot a row in a submeny, and just how do I do that? [15:30] ok....did a little googeling and, surprise, surprise. It is IMPOSSIBLE :D http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1195275 === juicy is now known as Guest37293 === troy__ is now known as Troy^ [16:19] can anyone tell me where the login motd is? so i can edit the default one [16:21] is that what your looking for https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UpdateMotd ? [16:23] Troy^: /etc/motd [16:23] sw looked in there but i don't see any of the script portions like i like the fact the default has ram and harddriv info etc. [16:24] Troy^: scripts update /etc/motd with that. it reads from /etc/motd though. and that's what you asked for ;o [16:24] ^ link is prolly what you want then [16:24] sw: Error: "link" is not a valid command. [16:25] sw: just didn't know how to explain it :P [16:25] * sw gags uvirtbot with ubottu [16:32] hmm /etc/update-motd.d seems to have some of the scripts but still seems like something is missing [16:36] ahh here we go /usr/bin/landscape-sysinfo [16:49] ok so if i wanted to add a program such as hddtemp to the motd. could i just add in the motd.tail /usr/sbin/hddtemp /dev/sda === cpg|away is now known as cpg [18:03] is there a way to perform a internet speed test on my ubuntu server?
