silverarrow | hi | 00:11 |
BarkingFish | excellent, thank you kindly :) | 00:11 |
silverarrow | are you sure you aren't a dog? | 00:11 |
silverarrow | ;- ) | 00:11 |
BarkingFish | no, I'm not :) | 00:12 |
BarkingFish | I might occasionally be dog tired, but I don't bark irl - I just bite :D | 00:12 |
silverarrow | where is diskutility in quantal? | 00:12 |
silverarrow | gone? | 00:13 |
Daekdroom | Not installed by default, I suppose. | 00:14 |
silverarrow | oh, disks | 00:14 |
silverarrow | renamed | 00:14 |
silverarrow | install is alway scary | 00:16 |
silverarrow | are you familiar with "install alongt side other verson of ubuntu" | 00:17 |
c_smith_ | man, I really gotta say 12.10 is shaping up nicely. | 00:34 |
bjsnider | i guess it can't be found by searching for "palimpsest" in overview anymore | 00:34 |
c_smith_ | bjsnider, that's when one makes it a point to search everything local for now. | 00:36 |
c_smith_ | correct? | 00:36 |
bjsnider | i dunno | 00:36 |
c_smith_ | might be a good idea until they implement the opt-out | 00:37 |
c_smith_ | and as I have read, it's gonna be opt-out rather than opt-in | 00:37 |
c_smith_ | no clue who made that ludicrous decision. | 00:37 |
jbicha | bjsnider: that's because the binary is now called gnome-disks | 00:46 |
bjsnider | yeah, i figgered | 00:46 |
bjsnider | i guess it makes sense, since nobody seemed to know why the tool was called palimpsest | 00:47 |
silverarrow | that is 6 hours until i have wired connection | 00:54 |
silverarrow | !"#ยค%& | 00:54 |
silverarrow | maybe I can get the b43 stuff through puppy lucid | 00:58 |
silverarrow | or not | 00:58 |
silverarrow | it can retrieve from ubuntu repositories | 00:58 |
silverarrow | or a usb thing | 00:59 |
silverarrow | !!!! | 00:59 |
bjsnider | silverarrow, having a broadcom problem are you? | 01:00 |
=== silverarrow_ is now known as silverarrow | ||
BarkingFish | !find b43 precise | 01:04 |
ubottu | Found: b43-fwcutter, libghc-configfile-dev, libghc-configfile-prof, firmware-b43-installer, firmware-b43-lpphy-installer | 01:04 |
BarkingFish | silverarrow, those are the broadcom 43 files you might very well need, I don't know because I don't use broadcom - but at least one or more of those may be able to help you. | 01:05 |
BarkingFish | silverarrow, those are the broadcom 43 files you might very well need, I don't know because I don't use broadcom - but at least one or more of those may be able to help you. | 01:05 |
BarkingFish | i think you need to have a firmware file to use one or more of them :| | 01:05 |
silverarrow | yes, luckily a usb wireless I have works, | 01:06 |
bjsnider | jbicha, the maximize gesture doesn't work with gimp | 01:06 |
silverarrow | odd, but lucky | 01:06 |
silverarrow | it will not download | 01:07 |
bjsnider | silverarrow, aren't you glad you bought broadcom stuff? | 01:08 |
silverarrow | i am | 01:08 |
silverarrow | or rather realtek perhaps | 01:08 |
jbicha | bjsnider: I'm not responsible for gimp ;) | 01:08 |
silverarrow | anyhow, it works | 01:08 |
silverarrow | however, download is veeerry slow | 01:09 |
silverarrow | like a week | 01:09 |
bjsnider | jbicha, i thought you might have an idea why, so i could complain on a gimp ml somewhere | 01:13 |
omac | It's interesting to note that vlc when opened up plays with a tinny sound for videos or mp3s. Once I adjust the volume for a second or two it goes back to normal sound. | 03:50 |
omac | Also to note I don't have this issue when playing with totem. | 03:50 |
sindile | i have a thinkpad w530 - i have been trying to install nvidia drivers from this ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates. running apt-get install nvidia-current i get the following error unmet dependencies - depednds xorg-video-abi-11 but it is not installable | 05:22 |
sindile | any ideas on how to resolve this | 05:22 |

gsedej_work | hi! I'm just trying ubuntu 12.10. I can't find logout button | 10:25 |
gsedej_work | option | 10:25 |
gsedej_work | I wish to test other DE, because unity works awfully bad in Eee (atom + gma500) | 10:25 |
gsedej_work | in live seassion | 10:26 |
varikonniemi | there is no other de in live cd :D | 10:36 |
varikonniemi | kubuntu is other de | 10:36 |
varikonniemi | xubuntu other | 10:36 |
varikonniemi | etc | 10:36 |
gsedej_work | live usb + persistance | 10:37 |
gsedej_work | kde works quite good in "software" mode | 10:38 |
varikonniemi | and iirc unity2d was removed with llvmpipe | 10:38 |
varikonniemi | so is there any other de available but unity anymore? | 10:38 |
gsedej_work | varikonniemi, you can install it using usb+persistance | 10:39 |
varikonniemi | yeah a de might be possible | 10:40 |
varikonniemi | i was thinking about my problems trying live persistence + nvidia binary blob, which is impossible | 10:40 |
tsimpson | isn't the logout option in the top right? probably under a menu | 10:41 |
md_5 | <md_5> there are currently no applications which integrate with your (null) account | 10:53 |
md_5 | <md_5> I can't delete whatever was there | 10:53 |
md_5 | <md_5> hmm probably +1 question | 10:53 |

BluesKaj | Hey all | 12:06 |
gsedej_work | varikonniemi, why impossible? it worked for me | 12:07 |
varikonniemi | at the time i was told that since it is a kernel module that needs to be compiled it cannot be done | 12:08 |
varikonniemi | what i managed though was a normal install to the usb drive, and then i got it working just as if booted from hd | 12:08 |
silverarrow | hi | 12:09 |
silverarrow | I have installed b43 package for quantal, and yet no wireless? | 12:09 |
BluesKaj | silverarrow, sudo modprobe b43 | 12:21 |
silverarrow | nothing much happens | 12:28 |
silverarrow | restart? | 12:28 |
BluesKaj | try to connect | 12:29 |
BluesKaj | if the module loads there's no output from modprobe | 12:29 |
silverarrow | output? | 12:30 |
silverarrow | I had the b43-fwcutter_015-14_powerpc.deb stored on a usb stick, and then installed | 12:32 |
silverarrow | should it matter which way it is installed? | 12:33 |
silverarrow | I give up | 12:47 |
silverarrow | have to get wired connection | 12:47 |
Seven_Six_Two | downloaded beta2 and put on usb. booted on laptop with nvidia. Output says "nouveau gpu lockup - switching to software fbcon...Failed to idle channel 2". I switched to a term and changed xorg.conf to nv, but that just locked my system. | 16:15 |
Seven_Six_Two | I think I might have just achieved low graphics mode. | 16:18 |
BluesKaj | Seven_Six_Two, install nvidia-current then reboot | 16:24 |
yofel_ | Seven_Six_Two: if I remember correctly nv doesn't exist anymore, try to boot with 'nomodeset' instead | 16:25 |
BluesKaj | oops , thought nv was short for nouveau ... Seven_Six_Two , ignore my post | 16:26 |
yofel_ | well, once the system does boot he should do that :) | 16:27 |
Seven_Six_Two | I can't install it, because my 4gb usb key is apparently out of space | 16:27 |
yofel_ | ouch | 16:27 |
Seven_Six_Two | I decided after a bit of kicking that I'd try in vmware | 16:27 |
BluesKaj | yeah , but i might hang on nouveau as default | 16:27 |
BluesKaj | it | 16:28 |
Seven_Six_Two | I take it back. I'm going to try nomodeset first. Thanks yofel_ | 16:29 |
Seven_Six_Two | I replaced "quiet" with "nomodeset" | 16:30 |
Seven_Six_Two | aaw. sorry. It flashed a few times like it really wanted to start. LGM, no mouse. | 16:31 |
yofel_ | :( | 16:32 |
Seven_Six_Two | I run 12.04 normally, and it's an HP g60 laptop. Not obscure hardware | 16:32 |
BluesKaj | can you get to grub , Seven_Six_Two | 16:32 |
Seven_Six_Two | sure, | 16:33 |
BluesKaj | try the recovery kernel , then in the dialog repair broken packages , then once finished , install nvidia-current | 16:34 |
BluesKaj | and sudo nvidia-xconfig | 16:35 |
=== emma is now known as em | ||
Seven_Six_Two | ok. I'm at grub. can you be more specific? I have : /casper/vmlinuz initrd=/casper/initrd.lz file=/cdrom/preseed/ubuntu.seed boot=casper quiet splash -- persistent | 16:36 |
Seven_Six_Two | I don't know about any recovery kernels when using unetbootin | 16:37 |
BluesKaj | Seven_Six_Two, I mean the grub menu, after the bios scrreen | 16:39 |
Seven_Six_Two | I didn't install it on my harddrive, so it's not on my laptop's grub. I have to select "try without installing" from unetbootin menu, and there's no grub screen after that | 16:41 |
Seven_Six_Two | as a side note, my desktop says that there's 3.1gb free on my usb key, so I don't know why it was complaining about being full when I tried to install nvidia-current | 16:41 |
BluesKaj | wel, it would have good to know you were using live media instead of an actual install | 16:44 |
Seven_Six_Two | I'm sorry you missed that part! I did mention it twice though... | 16:46 |
Seven_Six_Two | I'm going to give vmware a go before I try the nightly | 16:47 |
=== jimerickson is now known as Guest56016 | ||
Seven_Six_Two | it booted without trouble in vmware, but I'd like to get it to work from usb. Is there a trick to being able to install software when you run from usb? | 17:02 |
yofel_ | well, you can use usb-creator to make a persistent stick, then your installed software will stay. | 17:04 |
=== yofel_ is now known as yofel | ||
Seven_Six_Two | no wayland yet? I thought it was going to be this release? | 17:05 |
Seven_Six_Two | yofel, I thought that's what I had done, but maybe I suppose I did it wrong. I'll try it again. Thanks | 17:09 |
RiXtEr | Hello all, is there a way to upgrade to 12.10 using apt? | 17:17 |
RiXtEr | Wow, just checked the link, someone RTFM me next time... | 17:24 |
* RiXtEr facepalms. | 17:24 | |
BluesKaj | RiXtEr, well , the command , sudo do-release-upgrade -d , will upgrade , but make sure you updated and upgraded in your present OS first which I assume is 12.04 | 17:38 |
BluesKaj | and for saftey's sake delete the ppas in /etc/apt/sources.list.d | 17:39 |
Seven_Six_Two | wow. all of those problems simply because I didn | 17:47 |
RiXtEr | BluesKaj, thanks! | 17:47 |
Seven_Six_Two | didn't allot enough space on the usb key for persistence | 17:47 |
BluesKaj | RiXtEr, np , have fun :) | 17:48 |
RiXtEr | BluesKaj, will do :) | 17:48 |
RiXtEr | BluesKaj, to my understanding everything is 'frozen' right now, so if I grab it now, as opposed to 2 weeks from now, it should be the same right? | 17:49 |
BluesKaj | RiXtEr, not necessarily , ..the upgrades are frozen untill they are tested and approved atm ..that's my take on it | 17:50 |
BluesKaj | RiXtEr, but mostly everything is in a stable state right now , but the unity/gnome experience may be different than KDE , which is what I use. | 17:53 |
BluesKaj | RiXtEr, and if you're using ati pci graphics ..all bets are off | 17:55 |
Seven_Six_Two | jockey-gtk is transitional. Is something replacing it for installing the nvidia drivers? | 18:10 |
=== silverarrow_ is now known as silverarrow | ||
BluesKaj | Seven_Six_Two, there's going to be a software properties tab option in whatever the hardware drivers section is in unity/gnome | 18:19 |
Seven_Six_Two | BluesKaj, thanks | 18:24 |

FernandoMiguel | hi | 20:27 |
BluesKaj | hey FernandoMiguel | 20:29 |
FernandoMiguel | hey budy | 20:31 |
OSreX | hi, does 12.10 include mono in the base install? | 20:35 |
trism | OSreX: no | 20:36 |
OSreX | thank you | 20:36 |
