=== Jikai is now known as Jikan [02:56] What's the tag for older bugs still plagging raring? [02:58] Bug 551668 is still in raring =( [02:58] bug 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/551668 [05:56] updates have fixed the skype issue btw :D [05:56] hi-five to whomever fixed it.. hehe [06:52] my bad.. skype is at least installable now without package conflicts [06:53] but it still segfaults on startup without the libGL wrapper [09:39] hi, 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/ [09:40] probably the script will want to check not for the latest version but the one that is actually being used in the release [09:40] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1137513 [09:40] Launchpad bug 1137513 in linux (Ubuntu) "Wireless 168c:001c with ath5k on Acer Aspire One AOA150 download checksum fails" [Medium,Incomplete] [09:42] this 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] not to mention that it's disappointing that 2-finger scrolling doesn't afford pixel precise control, everything moves by chunks [12:10] hello [12:11] running virtualbox 4.1.22 here, and I set up bridged connection. arp kind of comes in sometimes, ping doesn't work at all. [12:22] ah wait, just got a newer kernel [12:40] okay, updating fixed my problem with vbox. [12:48] hi, 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 everything [12:48] anyone famailiar with that behaviour [12:48] ? [12:54] is that a virtual machine? [12:58] if 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 issue [13:01] oh wait, silly me, that was an explicit laptop. 3.8.0-11 might help as well though. [13:22] martii, ok. thanks a lot. i'll try that [13:50] Hiyas all [15:39] It seems like the Xubuntu installer for the daily is hanging. Is there a log I can check to make sure? [15:40] after the second screen with the third party software? [15:41] yeah [15:41] well, where the checkboxes are, to select download updates and 3rd party software [15:41] when I click Continue... it's not going anywhere... just spinning [15:41] a common issue [15:41] theres a bug with a couple workwround which sometimes work [15:42] try sudo swapoff --all before starting the installer [15:47] tried that... seems to make no difference [15:47] (just tried it, since you suggested it) [15:48] I even rebooted, to start from a clean slate [15:55] I don't know how to get around [15:55] it [15:55] after the 20 or so try it worked for some reason [15:55] try unpluging all external drives [15:57] there are no externals in this case [15:57] just two internals, one SSD, one HDD [15:57] no optical even.... I'm installing from a USB stick [17:11] bah [17:12] I 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. [17:32] SuperLag: Actually, I think its easier to iron out bugs on universal VM then on myriad of different PCs out there ;> [17:33] ironhalik: no arguments here... except for the fact that I wouldn't run into these issues in a VM [17:34] ironhalik: so it'd be hard to know something was wrong, and/or track it down if you did know [17:37] yeah, those can by nasty surprises [17:38] Installing 12.10 beta, it would format my existing OS, then crash after that [17:38] :> [17:38] I've had crashers on 13.04, so I'm reinstalling 12.10 [17:38] sad, because I like stuff that's in 13.04 (namely a native Python 3) [17:39] I'm considering doing an upgrade to 13.04... but I'm not sure yet [17:39] On my lappy, I use 12.10-upgraded-to-13.04 [17:39] the upgrade process works ok, for me at least [17:39] any issues with the upgrad? [17:39] upgrade, that is [17:40] nah, works as intended [17:43] actually, its hard to believe its not even beta yet [17:44] hmm... update-manager -d doesn't show 13.04 as an option [17:49] try do-release-upgrade -d [18:21] here's to hoping that 3.8.0-11 doesn't have all the issues that 3.8.0-10 did... panic panic panic [18:33] nope. same stuff. [18:33] $@##@$%%@#$@#$%@#$%$@#5 [20:26] then with rolling release model, no more #ubuntu+1? [20:27] or ubuntu+1 forever without closing down after a release [20:28] i would prefer the latter [20:28] though we probably can'T shoo people to #ubuntu anymore :( [20:29] well, if this channel becomes as noisy as that one, i'm outta here [20:31] #ubuntu-rolling, i don't think it so bad... [21:52] evening 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] any ideas on how to get round this at all? [22:04] BarkingFish, install linux-image-generic [22:05] yeah, the prob is linux-image-generic is apparently 3.8.0-11.25 [22:05] BarkingFish: its gone from the repository, youll need to find the packages [22:05] or, file a bug so kernel issues get resolved [22:06] oh shut the front door :O when you say "find the packages" are they likely to be archived somewhere in the servers? [22:07] probably not [22:07] BarkingFish, why can't you use the latest kernel? [22:08] well 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] I 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. [22:10] vivid, i think it's still there [22:11] apt-cache policy linux-image-3.8.0-2-generic shows nothing [22:11] right, but... [22:11] beyond that, i dont know where it would be [22:12] bjsnider, you have an idea as to where it might have been shuffled off to, perhaps? [22:14] https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/raring/amd64/linux-image [22:14] now, those have been deleted, but you have source packages and changes files to use to build it yourself [22:15] aha :) now if there's a repo for x86, i'm laughing :) [22:20] yeah, switch the url to i386 [22:20] brilliant. cheers :) [22:28] I would like to report a bug... [22:28] the unity search button goes into a continuous loop when I search for stuff... [22:28] this is on a macpro i7 retina === Jikan is now known as Jikai === Jikai is now known as Jikan
