jetsaredimneed a little advice on hard drive replacement03:04
jetsaredimnot quite sure of how to accomplish this03:04
jetsaredimi'm moving from a 1TB 7200rpm to 256GB SSD03:04
bjsniderjetsaredim, how much data?03:08
jetsaredimi only have a minimal install at the moment ~8G03:09
jetsaredimall the guides i can find for replacing hard drives are for increasing the size03:09
jetsaredimshould i basically try to resize my filesystem down to something below 256G and then ddrescue it to the new drive and then expand to fill?03:10
bjsniderwell, you can clean install and then move your home files over03:10
jetsaredimi don't really want to go through re-installing all the stuff i have on my system03:10
jetsaredimplus i have it setup the way i want it03:11
jetsaredimtook me like a week to get it setup how i like it03:11
jetsaredimwith tweaks and whatnot03:11
bjsnidermost of the tweaks are probably in your home directory in hidden files03:12
TohuwI just performed a do-release-upgrade, but unity or some higher order element crashed. I was performing the upgrade in a gnome-terminal session. I can see my windows, but there are no window controls and I can use the mouse, but keyboard input is not accepted. However, using another tty (ctrl-alt-6), I am able to type fine. The upgrade is currently awaiting my answer to a prompt (change /etc/default/grub). How can I safely resume this upgrade?03:23
Tohuw(this is what I deserve for not running the command in a tmux session!)03:23
TohuwIs there an onscreen keyboard in Ubuntu? If so, what is the process name and where is the executable located? I need to regain keyboard control over an X session where I can only send mouse input.03:47
jbichaTohuw: onboard03:50
Tohuwjbicha: Thank you. I ended up regaining actual keyboard input, so I can resume my upgrade. What an inopportune time...03:51
TohuwWhere did unity-greeter.conf go?04:33

m4rku5is there any way I can install 12.10 beta if X won't come up (graphics driver is broken unitl 3.6-rc6)?16:18
krosonHi. Does ubuntu install unneeded drivers packages during installation, or only the ones for the drivers detected? Thanks16:20
genii-aroundm4rku5: You could try using the boot option of vga16:24
m4rku5genii-around: I still end up with just a console, X.org won't come up and there is no alernate image for 12.10 :(16:27
genii-aroundm4rku5: nomodeset produces also the same result?16:34
m4rku5genii-around: as additional parameter or instead of vga?16:35
genii-aroundm4rku5: instead of16:35
m4rku5trying right now16:36
m4rku5nope I still end up on a console :( vesa driver fails with some errors16:38
genii-aroundWhat is the vendor:product code for the video card from the result of: lspci -nn16:41
m4rku5its an intel GMA 600 0886:4002 - the gma500_gfx has been fixed in 3.6-rc616:43
m4rku5that why I wanted a text install and later manually install 3.6-rc6 kernel16:44
genii-aroundm4rku5: If it's a desktop you could conceivably put in some temporary card that does work16:46
m4rku5genii-around: nope it is a tablet16:47
m4rku5genii-around: however there is a alternate iso (not beta1 but some daily build) for 12.10 - that one should hopefully provide a text-based installer16:48
genii-aroundYou could probably also use the server install with just ssh server selected16:50
m4rku5genii-around: damnit the alternate image requires network17:12
m4rku5can I install ubuntu 12.10 in a VM and then copy the on-disk content to the tablet?17:14
genii-aroundm4rku5: The tablet isn't connected somehow to the internet?17:20
m4rku5genii-around: well it has wlan17:20
m4rku5but that doesn't seem to work17:21
m4rku5alternate doesnt even come with iwconfig17:21
m4rku5guess I will install 12.04 on the tablet and install kernel 3.6-rc6 there17:21
genii-aroundYes, thats annoying. Because you could just do something usually issue wpa_supplicant manually with a conf file and background it17:22
