| Pedrolito | is it possible to upgrade to the beta right now? | 00:06 |
|---|---|---|
| silverarrow | should be | 00:07 |
| silverarrow | you have to do a sudo release update command | 00:07 |
| silverarrow | Pedrolito: I have to look it up, I can never remember them correctly | 00:08 |
| penguin42 | yeh it should, just see the instructions on the beta release notes page if you're coming from a precise install | 00:08 |
| silverarrow | some have had problems | 00:08 |
| silverarrow | however, the install CD/DVD have a update function too | 00:08 |
| silverarrow | or upgrade might be correct term | 00:09 |
| cowsquad | penguin42, I am back, and I am just an idiot. I went back to check the memory sticks and they are 2 and 1 gb | 00:09 |
| Pedrolito | ok, I will look that up | 00:09 |
| Pedrolito | thank you | 00:09 |
| penguin42 | cowsquad: Hehe - dmidecode rarely lies :-) | 00:09 |
| cowsquad | so my system is correct, I am just an idiot | 00:09 |
| penguin42 | cowsquad: Hey we all do it from time to time | 00:10 |
| cowsquad | But I think my system can handle 4 gb max right? | 00:10 |
| silverarrow | sudo do-release-upgrade -d | 00:11 |
| silverarrow | that`s the one I think | 00:11 |
| penguin42 | cowsquad: Not sure | 00:11 |
| penguin42 | cowsquad: I suspect your A300 is a bit newer than my A100; crucial.com's site said mine could take 4GB, but it only recognised 3, and I read the manuals for the chipset and it couldn't cope with 3 | 00:11 |
| penguin42 | with 4 | 00:12 |
| silverarrow | you might have to check settings to make it work, "check for new release" that kind of thing | 00:12 |
| penguin42 | silverarrow: The one in particular (as mentioned in the release notes) is that by default a precise install will only check for new LTS releases, so you have to flip it to check for all | 00:12 |
| cowsquad | my specs said that the max is 4gb so I am gonna add 1 gb then | 00:12 |
| Pedrolito | silverarrow, update-manager -d | 00:13 |
| silverarrow | hmm | 00:13 |
| silverarrow | cowsquad: if you run i386, you most likely cannot make any use of much more than 3GB anyhow, with 64bit it is debatable | 00:14 |
| jtaylor | debatable? | 00:14 |
| penguin42 | silverarrow: the ubuntu kernel has PAE enabled so it can use more than 3GB even on 386 as long as the chipset supports it | 00:14 |
| silverarrow | yeah, it depends on cpu then, and specs | 00:15 |
| penguin42 | silverarrow: And on 64bit it can use as much as you like | 00:15 |
| silverarrow | well, yeah, core2duo hasn`t used much more than 4GB here | 00:15 |
| Pedrolito | darn it, the dist upgrade needs 5GB of free space | 00:15 |
| cowsquad | my laptop it has capacity for 32 and 64 bit. so i guess i can upgrade | 00:15 |
| silverarrow | hardly more than 2or 3 really | 00:15 |
| silverarrow | penguin42: I`m not sure why that is really | 00:16 |
| penguin42 | cowsquad/silverarrow: It can depend on the chipset as well as cpu, for example the 945GM variant I have can only do 3GB even with a CPU that can do more | 00:16 |
| silverarrow | see, that is the debatable part | 00:17 |
| cowsquad | penguin42, How do I know whta chipset do i have? | 00:18 |
| silverarrow | they say minimum 3 or 4 GB RAM for 64bit I think | 00:18 |
| penguin42 | cowsquad: lspci | 00:18 |
| penguin42 | cowsquad: But generally it's ok to trust say the docs that are on the vendors website, or somewhere like crucial | 00:18 |
| silverarrow | is that ram chipset then ? | 00:19 |
| penguin42 | silverarrow: motherboard chipset - one of the bridges | 00:19 |
| silverarrow | I see | 00:19 |
| penguin42 | (is that north or south I can never remember) | 00:19 |
| cowsquad | so my chipset is mobile 4 | 00:20 |
| silverarrow | My HP came with vista 32 bit, and I was offered free windows 7 64bit in the deal | 00:20 |
| silverarrow | not sure there were any major benefits. but it has 6GB RAM | 00:21 |
| silverarrow | ..or was it 8 | 00:21 |
| penguin42 | that's all very interesting and everything, but that's vista, and this is #ubuntu+1 | 00:22 |
| silverarrow | true, but in relation to 32 versus 64 bit | 00:23 |
| silverarrow | I haven`t tired quantal on it yet | 00:23 |
| silverarrow | I thought it would be more hardware related than software | 00:24 |
| penguin42 | anyone know how to eprsuade buuntu-bug (at a command line via ssh) to tell me what bug it thinks the dupe is it thinks it has found? | 00:29 |
| penguin42 | anyone know how to persuade ubuntu-bug (at a command line via ssh) to tell me what bug it thinks the dupe is it thinks it has found? (even typed in the right order) | 00:29 |
| cowsquad | penguin42, one more question. How do I check what video/graphic card do I have. Since is unknown right now | 00:30 |
| yofel | lscpi | grep VGA will tell you that | 00:30 |
| Pedrolito | silverarrow, the 64bit mode is supposedly faster in itself independently from the RAM problem. It has more registers, and other improvements | 00:30 |
| penguin42 | cowsquad: It will be listed in the lspci output, see the line that says VGA on it | 00:30 |
| silverarrow | you have to fill in a suspected package, and bug launcher will auto collect info on related stuff | 00:30 |
| silverarrow | I don`t think it is more advanced than that | 00:31 |
| penguin42 | silverarrow: Only if it's in the mood; in this one it claims there is a dupe (shown in my web browser) which there isn't since it can't start a web browser but doesn't tell me what it is | 00:31 |
| yofel | that's the bug pattern matching, no idea why that dialog doesn't tell you the matched bug :/ | 00:31 |
| penguin42 | yofel: It's not a dialog - it's a text prompt | 00:31 |
| silverarrow | penguin42: yeah, after launchpad login? it lists possible dupes, optional list to choose from? | 00:32 |
| penguin42 | yofel: It's telling me to look at the bug in the web browser it's opened which is a bit stupid since it's running at a console | 00:32 |
| penguin42 | silverarrow: No it doesn't if it's running from the console | 00:32 |
| yofel | well, the GUI version would show a dialog with an OK button I believe. | 00:32 |
| yofel | oh | 00:32 |
| penguin42 | yofel: Yeh | 00:32 |
| yofel | ok | 00:32 |
| yofel | that's useless indeed -.- | 00:32 |
| yofel | silverarrow: apport can check for dupes before you ever get on launchpad | 00:33 |
| silverarrow | I use the run function | 00:33 |
| penguin42 | interestingly I ran it again and now it's decided to report it | 00:33 |
| yofel | that functionality is used for bugs that are reported very often so people stop reporting them | 00:33 |
| yofel | ... | 00:34 |
| silverarrow | well, apport I mean | 00:34 |
| silverarrow | midori chrashed and I got an auto apport bug report in quantal | 00:35 |
| silverarrow | i did not report it | 00:35 |

| Almindor | I also see it in inkscape, but it's just not responding | 02:29 |
| Almindor | I thought 12.10 should have support for CTL-470 native | 02:30 |
| bjsnider | Almindor, why did you think so? | 02:32 |
| Almindor | bjsnider: because as far as I understand wacom X drivers in 12.10 are on the version where they added CTL-470 support | 02:33 |
| Almindor | bjsnider, also I see the device with xsetwacom --list | 02:34 |
| bjsnider | Almindor, using wireless or cable? | 02:37 |

| bjsnider | Almindor, xserver-xorg-input-wacom installed? | 02:38 |
| Almindor | bjsnider, yes | 02:39 |
| Almindor | that's the thing it is detected by inkscape, I see it with xsetwacom --list, it just doesn't respond to the pen (the light on the tablet does tho) and I can't "turn it on" in inkscape as an input device | 02:40 |
| Almindor | I can also see the event13/event14 dev files created for it | 02:41 |
| bjsnider | and it doesn't control the system mouse? | 02:41 |

| BluesKaj | hey all | 14:18 |
| victor__ | hi... what's the CLI command to update 12.04 to the latest beta? i thought it was "update-manager -d" that didnt do the trick | 15:05 |
| phoenix_firebrd | victor__: try "do-release-upgrade -d" | 15:06 |
| bazhang | victor__, tried that with alt f2? | 15:06 |
| victor__ | Checking for a new Ubuntu release | 15:06 |
| victor__ | No new release found | 15:06 |
| victor__ | ? | 15:06 |
| victor__ | Distributor ID:Ubuntu | 15:07 |
| victor__ | Description:Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS | 15:07 |
| victor__ | Release:12.04 | 15:07 |
| victor__ | Codename:precise | 15:07 |
| phoenix_firebrd | victor__: open muon | 15:07 |
| bazhang | victor__, make sure the package manager is not set to "look for LTS only" | 15:07 |
| victor__ | should be an update i guess? | 15:07 |
| bazhang | phoenix_firebrd, thats kubuntu | 15:07 |
| phoenix_firebrd | victor__: then synaptic | 15:07 |
| phoenix_firebrd | victor__: in the software sources | 15:08 |
| phoenix_firebrd | victor__: see if you have selected the option to notify normal releases instead of lts releases | 15:09 |
| victor__ | indeed that did the trick :) | 15:09 |
| phoenix_firebrd | victor__: nice | 15:09 |
| victor__ | off we are | 15:09 |
| victor__ | bbl | 15:10 |
| penguin42 | hggdh: I wonder if your laptop problem was a dmraid, the logs show activate-dmraid: Serial ATA RAID disk(s) detected. If this was bad, boot with 'nodmraid'. | 15:15 |
| === maxb_ is now known as maxb | ||
| hggdh | penguin42: I also wondered about that, and disabled raid in the BIOS. Still, the sda was not found by the installer | 16:45 |
| penguin42 | hggdh: It would have probably been worth keeping a copy of the 1st block of the drive | 16:47 |
| hggdh | penguin42: yeah. I tried to dd it off, but somehow I messed up, and lost the file :-( | 16:47 |
| penguin42 | that's life | 16:48 |
| penguin42 | and anyway there is important and there is getting your misses laptop working :-) | 16:48 |
| hggdh | so I intend to call Dell, and ask for a recovery CD | 16:48 |
| hggdh | heh. She was quite unhappy with that :-) | 16:48 |
| Pedrolito | I don't see the gsettings trees in dconf-editor, but I can edit the values from the command line utility 'gsettings'. Is that normal? I've seen on askubuntu several posts with screenshots showing the com and org trees in dconf-editor. I upgraded from 12.04 if that matters | 16:58 |
| trism | Pedrolito: any errors when you run dconf-editor from the command line? | 17:00 |
| Pedrolito | let me check | 17:00 |
| Pedrolito | huh, wth, all of a sudden the com and org trees are showing in dconf-editor | 17:02 |
| trism | strange | 17:02 |
| Pedrolito | starting it from the command line could have done that? | 17:02 |
| trism | don't see why it would make a difference | 17:03 |
| Pedrolito | me neither, that's very weird | 17:03 |
| Pedrolito | well, good for me I guess | 17:04 |
| Pedrolito | thanks btw | 17:05 |
| dupondje | Nobody happens to have a Galaxy S3 ? | 17:22 |
| bekks | dupondje: Why...? | 17:22 |

| silverarrow | hardly any activity right now anyhow | 18:12 |
| kendfinger | ikr | 18:13 |
| kendfinger | I guess everyone is busy squashing bugs | 18:13 |
| silverarrow | perhaps | 18:13 |
| silverarrow | or it is just sunday | 18:13 |
| kendfinger | yeah that too | 18:13 |
| kyubotsu | thats a lame excuse, refrain from it | 18:13 |
| kendfinger | lol | 18:13 |
| silverarrow | it stopped raining here | 18:13 |
| kendfinger | here too | 18:13 |
| kendfinger | It rained like crazy in SC | 18:13 |
| silverarrow | perhaps I will go out test my bike | 18:14 |
| kendfinger | :) | 18:14 |
| silverarrow | I had a flat tire yesterday, and my brakehandle came off the hinge | 18:14 |
| silverarrow | you know the bolt that keeps it in place | 18:14 |
| kendfinger | oh yikes | 18:14 |
| kyubotsu | !ot | 18:14 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu+1 handles support for the development version of Ubuntu. Please join #ubuntu for all other Ubuntu support. Chat in #ubuntu-offtopic. | 18:14 |
| silverarrow | on saturday evening, so I repaired with a wire, and have to do a real repair tomorrow | 18:15 |
| kendfinger | But I tried to get support and guess what, only one who said anything was silverarrow | 18:15 |
| kendfinger | So yeah bot is wrong | 18:15 |
| silverarrow | kyubotsu: launch your software center right now | 18:15 |
| kendfinger | lol | 18:16 |
| kyubotsu | chat. in. #ubuntu-offtopic. simple | 18:16 |
| kendfinger | ok | 18:16 |
| kendfinger | But can somebody handle my bug? | 18:16 |
| silverarrow | well, I am hoping to bumped in to someone who uses blueman | 18:16 |
| kendfinger | lol | 18:16 |
| silverarrow | I cannot make bluetooth work at all | 18:17 |
| Zta | Where do I find a list of open bugs in the beta only? | 18:17 |
| Zta | I'd like to know if it's a know bug that the Launcher cannot autohide ... or if I'm doing something weird wrong. | 18:18 |
| kendfinger | !launchpad | Zta | 18:18 |
| ubottu | Zta: Launchpad is a collection of development services for Open Source projects. It's Ubuntu's bug tracker, and much more; see https://launchpad.net/ | 18:18 |
| kendfinger | ... | 18:18 |
| Zta | kendfinger: This url does not point to beta-specific bugs. | 18:18 |
| kendfinger | Zta: one sec please | 18:18 |
| kyubotsu | technically, bugs for 12.10 are in launchpad, takes couple clicks to find after you're in | 18:20 |
| kendfinger | Zta: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+bugs | 18:20 |
| kendfinger | Yeah kyubotsu I was nice enough to give Zta the link | 18:20 |
| kyubotsu | indeed | 18:20 |
| Zta | I wasn't sure if it was https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+milestone/quantal-updates or https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+bugs or https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+milestone/ubuntu-12.10 | 18:21 |
| kendfinger | I get the ubottu syntax now. Like shell commands !"action | output-command" | 18:21 |
| kendfinger | Zta: it's ok. That's what I am here for | 18:22 |
| Zta | kendfinger: thanks | 18:22 |
| kendfinger | Zta: No Problem | 18:23 |
| kendfinger | Btw, I am 13 years old, so yeah #ubuntu-youth | 18:23 |
| kendfinger | Well guys gotta go | 18:29 |
| bakbaku | hi guys, I'm getting hash mismatches when running 'apt-get update' (just installed 12.10 beta 2) | 18:40 |
| bakbaku | for example: Failed to fetch gzip:/var/lib/apt/lists/partial/archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_quantal_main_binary-amd64_Packages Hash Sum mismatch | 18:40 |
| bakbaku | any idea why? | 18:40 |
| bakbaku | any one else seeing that? | 18:42 |
| penguin42 | bakbaku: I think it can happen if your mirror is in the process of doing an update as you do it - although it surprises me; it might be worth doing a ram check | 18:43 |
| dupondje | quite annoying i'm unable to open my files on my Samsung S3 with ubuntu :'( | 18:52 |
| penguin42 | dupondje: Looking in your other chat, is it just a missing udev rule - all the other stuff is there? | 18:58 |
| dupondje | penguin42: need to manually configure udev rules? | 18:59 |
| dupondje | I see the device in Nautilus, but unable to open it | 19:00 |
| penguin42 | dupondje: Well I know nothing about this, but if it is just a udev rule then you should be able to tweek it | 19:00 |
| dupondje | guess its more gvfs-photo2 not supporting th S3 | 19:01 |
| dupondje | gvfs-gphoto2 :) | 19:01 |
| penguin42 | dupondje: Don't know - if it's mtp you'd think there would be some generic 'hey I can do mtp' type of thing? | 19:01 |
| penguin42 | dupondje: Ah looking through the contents of that bug rather than the title it looks like not just a udev rule | 19:05 |
| Zta | What is the relationship between Gnome, Unity, and Compiz? And why isn't there just one point of configuration instead of System Settings AND CompizConfig Settings Manager? This is really annoying, especially since many of the configuration settings overlap. | 21:55 |
| Amaranth | Zta: Unless Ubuntu is patching gnome tools (most likely though) they only change mutter/gnome-shell settings | 21:57 |
| Zta | I installed b2 in order to help with some installation translation work and perhaps a few bugs here and there, but I've spent two days trying to restore my usual desktop and window behaviour and shortcuts, but everything keeps crashing and blows my work back to defaults. | 21:57 |
| Amaranth | While compiz and unity are a completely different thing | 21:57 |
| Amaranth | Although at one point compiz also had the ability to use gnome's settings which makes things even more confusing | 21:58 |
| Zta | But I'm a user. I just want to computer "Close Window" once. I don't care whether it's the responsibility of Compiz, Unity or something third. It's confusing how it is right now. | 21:59 |
| spaceneedle | I upgraded to Ubuntu 12.10--thru 12.04--but could not boot up from the 3.5 kernel. Had to use the 3.2 kernel. I'm using a dell latitude d610. Still won't boot from a usb stick. | 22:19 |
| Zta | okay, this was fun. Now how do I downgrade to Ubuntu 12.04 again? | 22:19 |
| jtaylor | reinstall | 22:22 |
| jtaylor | downgrading is not supported | 22:22 |
| Zta | How is it any different that upgrading? | 22:23 |
| jtaylor | its very different | 22:23 |
| Zta | out with one package set, in with another | 22:23 |
| jtaylor | it works for simple cases but not for the whole distribution | 22:23 |
| Zta | okay | 22:24 |
| jtaylor | if you want downgrading use snapshots | 22:24 |
| jtaylor | via btrfs, zfs or lvm | 22:24 |
| jtaylor | for zfs there are some neat apt plugins | 22:24 |
| Zta | I just want a working machine again =) Reinstall seems to be the only sane and safe option. | 22:25 |
| Zta | For some reason all my keyboard short cut get reset a while after I've configured them. It's getting annoying. | 22:26 |
