[00:15] bethebunny: did you md5 test the iso? [00:16] I'm having trouble booting the install CD. The framebuffer window (with keyboard == human) appears fine, then the ubuntu loading screen is fragmented as though it is attempting to render the image to a different resolution than my monitor [00:16] bethebunny: did you md5 test the iso? [00:16] I'll go do that, but I'm having the same problem with an old 10.04 build on the same machine. [00:16] bethebunny: why did you not test it before? [00:17] ActionParsnip: It might be good practice, but I'm generally not in the habit of md5 testing my downloads >.> [00:17] bethebunny: you should, the data needs to be perfect [00:26] ActionParsnip: Yes, the hash matches. [00:28] bethebunny: what video chip do you use? [00:28] nVidia GT550TI [00:28] bethebunny: tried the boot option: nouveau.blacklist=1 [00:38] ActionParsnip: It said something along the lines of "`1' is an invalid value for nouveau option `blacklist'", but then successfully booted without further graphical errors (well, it's not exactly full-featured, but I suspect the remaining problems are due to using a fallback graphics driver) [00:39] bethebunny: some chips don't like the nouveau driver. [00:39] bethebunny: you should know basic stuff like that if you want to use pre-release, its not ready for the lay-user [00:40] ActionParsnip: I'm sorry I tried dabbling in your deep and dark realm. I'll try growing out my neckbeard. Or maybe I should just switch back to gentoo. [00:53] did the boot option help? [00:59] bethebunny: nouveau is totally broken for me on that same GPU [00:59] in updated version its not shabby [01:00] i managed to install using the mini.iso and then manually installing nvidia-current and kubuntu-desktop via a base system [01:00] its still broken as of yesterday, when i cleaned up this system [01:01] so, dont be surprised when you get into a broken gui, be prepared to ctrl+alt+f1 and shut down lightdm [01:01] and quickly, the perpetual loop of lightdm restarts is a pain [01:03] bethebunny: and....i have a totally pimp neckbeard right now. definitely helps getting through nouveau === yofel_ is now known as yofel [01:29] vivid: have you tried kdm instead? [01:30] no need, default desktop installs lightdm and the aim is to get default working for the majority [01:30] and lightdm works wonderfully [01:30] vivid: from what you say, apparently not [01:30] the problem is nouveau [01:30] on GF114 [01:30] i see [01:37] ActionParsnip: alternatively, we could argue that no vesa fallback is an issue as well [05:16] is it possible to install quantal to a btrfs-oonly system ? [05:18] sure [05:19] cannot get it to install grub [05:20] lapion: can you install it from liveCD? [05:20] yes [05:20] failt to install grub [05:20] *fails [05:21] isit a known bug? [05:23] do not know am trying to install it again, this time will try to manually install grub before exiting install environment === Guest26042 is now known as dweez [05:30] it gives me core.img unusually large error [05:32] http://forums.funtoo.org/viewtopic.php?id=828 [05:36] I already found that one and was reading it. [05:36] ha [05:37] this only happens to systems whose hdd partition table is erased and recreated. [05:37] maybe the default chs should be something like n n 96 or something.. [05:44] hmm no xz support in grub-mkimage [06:23] hmm installing synaptics in the live environment seems to make the system totally useless [07:05] has anyone tried to install synaptic in the live version ? [07:05] lapion: You mean live CD? [07:06] yes [07:58] the grub error is a partition related problem solved by "creating" a new partition table, or recrating the mbr [08:10] hmm at least the not enough space error did nit repeat, but still no booting === Freeaqingme is now known as iedereen === iedereen is now known as Freeaqingme [09:51] seems most of new stuff on 12.10 will be "under the hood" type of things? === chrisccoulson_ is now known as chrisccoulson [11:00] booting with a btrfs is not working it cannot find the files because when you mount the btrfs all files and folder of the fs reside in the folder "@" in stead of "." [11:41] Hey all [12:07] hi, there seems to be a bug in the slepc package in quantal. Where should I report it? [12:18] pfarell: Open a terminal and type ubuntu-bug slepc [12:55] ubuntu cannot handle btrfs [12:57] i thought it was still pretty experimental [13:42] you guys suffer from nouveau booting problems from kernel 3.4 - 3.5? is it confined to kernel or distro specific? currently running ubuntu 12.04 and fedora 17. new kernel updates in f17 is giving me grief. was wondering will future ubuntu suffer same fate? [15:12] bobweaver, http://i45.tinypic.com/14nub5.png [15:12] that is what it looks like [15:13] loOking [15:14] Oh ccsm unity arch nemesis . Not sure that I can help with that sorry sandyd_away maybe others can [15:15] its alright, thanks for looking bobweaver [15:15] sandyd_away, what happens when you go to font settings and play with them [15:16] where? [15:17] not sure that is a great question [15:18] I thought that it was under gnome-control-panel but I can not seem to find [15:18] nvm - fixed the problem [15:18] And font viewer is not seeeming to do anything but hang [15:18] ccsm doing funky stuff [15:19] how did you fix it ? ccsm ?> [15:19] yup [15:19] cool === Chipaca` is now known as Chipaca [15:46] hi === trijntje_ is now known as trijntje [17:14] Is 12.10 going to use 3.4 instead of 3.5.3 or 3.6? [17:15] Bluefoxicy: depends on what you are talking about, for nautilus, yes, for kernels, I think we are sticking with 3.5 [17:17] kernel [17:17] heh that was ambiguous. [17:25] yeah too many similar version numbers this release === DJones is now known as Guest18084 === Guest18084 is now known as DJones === DJones is now known as Guest29203 === dgjones is now known as Guest74619 === ivan`` is now known as ^ivan`` [19:44] hmph [19:44] what happened to /usr/bin/X in quantal?

[19:48] hd1: xserver-xorg [19:49] thanks trism, for some reason that package wasn't installed :p [19:52] Is anyone else having a problem with ubuntu-panel-search using huge amounts of CPU? 99+%? === cjohnston_ is now known as cjohnston [19:56] cjohnston: maybe bug 1041354 (though a recent libreoffice update should fix that) [19:56] Launchpad bug 1041354 in libreoffice (Ubuntu Quantal) "unity-panel-service uses ~100% CPU when libreoffice-gtk is installed and enabled" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1041354 [19:59] trism: ok, thanks [19:59] trism: that sounds about right [19:59] I'm updating right now, maybe ill get it [20:00] thanks trism === jbicha is now known as Guest89291 === Guest89291 is now known as jbicha_ === jtechidna is now known as JontheEchidna === yofel_ is now known as yofel === sandyd_away is now known as sandyd === Logan_ is now known as Fluffer === Fluffer is now known as log === hggdh_ is now known as hggdh
