alex_mayorgaWhat's the tag for older bugs still plagging raring?02:56
alex_mayorgaBug 551668 is still in raring =(02:58
ubottubug 551668 in linux (Ubuntu) "Fn+F5 and Fn+F6 don't modify brightness on Sony VAIO VPCCW (GT 230M)" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/55166802:58

snadgehi-five to whomever fixed it.. hehe05:56
snadgemy bad.. skype is at least installable now without package conflicts06:52
snadgebut it still segfaults on startup without the libGL wrapper06:53
ryehi, i was directed to test mainline kernel (3.9-rc1) but the kernel failed to build - http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.9-rc1-raring/09:39
ryeprobably the script will want to check not for the latest version but the one that is actually being used in the release09:40

alankilathis multitouch stuff is totally worthless. Is it possible to disable 3- and 4-finger gestures, because this design seems to generate them randomly -- I swear I don't have 3 fingers on the touchpad at any point and yet it fires up application switcher and triggers show desktop and so on. :-/09:42
alankilanot to mention that it's disappointing that 2-finger scrolling doesn't afford pixel precise control, everything moves by chunks09:42
marttihello12:10
marttirunning virtualbox 4.1.22 here, and I set up bridged connection. arp kind of comes in sometimes, ping doesn't work at all.12:11
marttiah wait, just got a newer kernel12:22
marttiokay, updating fixed my problem with vbox.12:40
autoditachi, since upgrading to 13.04 (i know, it's in development), the layer2 status of the nic in my Thinkpad T500 (driver: e1000) doesn't get detected anymore and i can't setup any ethernet connection. ethtool states "unknown device" when i query eth0. when connected to the docking station, ethernet works fine, though. links gets detected and everything12:48
autoditacanyone famailiar with that behaviour12:48
autoditac?12:48
marttiis that a virtual machine?12:54
marttiif it is, you need to be careful with keeping guest and host addition software, as well as guest and host kernel modules in sync with their respecitve kernels. also, upgrading to 3.8.0-11 just helped me with a network issue12:58
marttioh wait, silly me, that was an explicit laptop. 3.8.0-11 might help as well though.13:01
autoditacmartii, ok. thanks a lot. i'll try that13:22
BluesKajHiyas all13:50
SuperLagIt seems like the Xubuntu installer for the daily is hanging. Is there a log I can check to make sure?15:39
jtaylorafter the second screen with the third party software?15:40
SuperLagyeah15:41
SuperLagwell, where the checkboxes are, to select download updates and 3rd party software15:41
SuperLagwhen I click Continue... it's not going anywhere... just spinning15:41
jtaylora common issue15:41
jtaylortheres a bug with a couple workwround which sometimes work15:41
jtaylortry sudo swapoff --all before starting the installer15:42
SuperLagtried that... seems to make no difference15:47
SuperLag(just tried it, since you suggested it)15:47
SuperLagI even rebooted, to start from a clean slate15:48
jtaylorI don't know how to get around15:55
jtaylorit15:55
jtaylorafter the 20 or so try it worked for some reason15:55
jtaylortry unpluging all external drives15:55
SuperLagthere are no externals in this case15:57
SuperLagjust two internals, one SSD, one HDD15:57
SuperLagno optical even.... I'm installing from a USB stick15:57
SuperLagbah17:11
SuperLagI can get 13.04 running in a VM just fine. Can't even use the damn installer to do a native install. Oh, the irony.17:12
ironhalikSuperLag: Actually, I think its easier to iron out bugs on universal VM then on myriad of different PCs out there ;>17:32
SuperLagironhalik: no arguments here... except for the fact that I wouldn't run into these issues in a VM17:33
SuperLagironhalik: so it'd be hard to know something was wrong, and/or track it down if you did know17:34
ironhalikyeah, those can by nasty surprises17:37
ironhalikInstalling 12.10 beta, it would format my existing OS, then crash after that17:38
ironhalik:>17:38
SuperLagI've had crashers on 13.04, so I'm reinstalling 12.1017:38
SuperLagsad, because I like stuff that's in 13.04 (namely a native Python 3)17:38
SuperLagI'm considering doing an upgrade to 13.04... but I'm not sure yet17:39
ironhalikOn my lappy, I use 12.10-upgraded-to-13.0417:39
ironhalikthe upgrade process works ok, for me at least17:39
SuperLagany issues with the upgrad?17:39
SuperLagupgrade, that is17:39
ironhaliknah, works as intended17:40
ironhalikactually, its hard to believe its not even beta yet17:43
SuperLaghmm... update-manager -d doesn't show 13.04 as an option17:44
ironhaliktry do-release-upgrade -d17:49
SuperLaghere's to hoping that 3.8.0-11 doesn't have all the issues that 3.8.0-10 did... panic panic panic18:21
SuperLagnope. same stuff.18:33
SuperLag$@##@$%%@#$@#$%@#$%$@#518:33
krabadorthen with rolling release model, no more #ubuntu+1?20:26
jtayloror ubuntu+1 forever without closing down after a release20:27
bjsnideri would prefer the latter20:28
jtaylorthough we probably can'T shoo people to #ubuntu anymore :(20:28
bjsniderwell, if this channel becomes as noisy as that one, i'm outta here20:29
krabador#ubuntu-rolling, i don't think it so bad...20:31
BarkingFishevening guys - can someone give me a quick hand please? i've reverted my system - i'm still on raring, but due to kernel issues, i've taken myself right back to 3.5.0-22-generic.  I want to go to 3.8.0-2-generic, but can't - when i try to install, i'm told it's a virtual package with no candidate.21:52
BarkingFishany ideas on how to get round this at all?21:52
bjsniderBarkingFish, install linux-image-generic22:04
BarkingFishyeah, the prob is linux-image-generic is apparently 3.8.0-11.2522:05
vividBarkingFish: its gone from the repository, youll need to find the packages22:05
vividor, file a bug so kernel issues get resolved22:05
BarkingFishoh shut the front door :O  when you say "find the packages" are they likely to be archived somewhere in the servers?22:06
vividprobably not22:07
bjsniderBarkingFish, why can't you use the latest kernel?22:07
BarkingFishwell that's a problem for me.  3.8.0-2 was the kernel where a local driver for my wifi was issued, and it worked until 3.8.0-3 came out, and it didn't work in anything from 3.8.0-3 onward.22:08
BarkingFishI wanted to go back to 3.8.0-2 and see if i could figure out what changed between those 2 kernels, and also get a local driver working again.22:08
bjsnidervivid, i think it's still there22:10
vividapt-cache policy linux-image-3.8.0-2-generic shows nothing22:11
bjsniderright, but...22:11
vividbeyond that, i dont know where it would be22:11
BarkingFishbjsnider, you have an idea as to where it might have been shuffled off to, perhaps?22:12
bjsniderhttps://launchpad.net/ubuntu/raring/amd64/linux-image22:14
bjsnidernow, those have been deleted, but you have source packages and changes files to use to build it yourself22:14
BarkingFishaha :)  now if there's a repo for x86, i'm laughing :)22:15
bjsnideryeah, switch the url to i38622:20
BarkingFishbrilliant. cheers :)22:20
iron_manI would like to report a bug...22:28
iron_manthe unity search button goes into a continuous loop when I search for stuff...22:28
iron_manthis is on a macpro i7 retina22:28
