k1lledi try to "install on hard disk"01:24
k1lledbut again - miss file..01:24
k1lledmy laptop is with amd64 and i donwload this: raring-desktop-amd6401:25
wilee-nileek1lled, That is really confusing, at least for me can you be a bit clearer01:27
k1lledwilee-nilee my english is bad... sry about that01:28
k1lledmmmm, well i try to start live CD 13.04 ubuntu01:29
wilee-nileek1lled, NO problem I'm a bit slow as well. ;)01:29
k1lledwell, what is not clear?01:29
Guest88134I am having some serious issues with the config files for Unity....  I use the LTS and Raring on the same machine using the same /home folder.... LTS works fine (though it boots much slower now) and Raring has not Unity panels, or gtk-window decorations.... anyone have any ideas of how to work around it?01:39
Guest88134I have removed the config files in ~/.config  and gotten it working... however it is only temporary.  I have a second user for testing purposes that works just fine.01:41
Guest88134currently I am using LXDE as my DE since Unity is messed up01:41
Guest88134I have no panels at all.  No window decorations.  Is there someway to fix this?01:51
Guest88134I have to open a terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T) and use gnome-session-quit to logout.01:51
bcbc2Guest88134: I wouldn't share home. Using an LTS and a development release with the same /home seems contradictory in nature. One is stable, the other unstable. Anyway, try this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/17610/how-do-i-reset-my-unity-configuration02:02
Guest88134bcbc2: sort of contradictory.... but if April is right around the corner this will need a solution.  LTS to get work done normally and developmental to test things.  LTS shouldn't break the developmental release.... it seems02:04
bcbc2Guest88134: I wouldn't share a home between different releases either. I wouldn't assume that the config would match between releases.02:05
Atlantic777I keep getting warning for many packages that they can't be verified/authenticated. What's happening with that?02:07
Guest88134Atlantic777: I did too... I fixed it by changing from united states server to Main02:08
Guest88134bcbc2: Thanks for your help02:08
bcbc2Guest88134: np02:08
bcbc2Atlantic777: is it on a ppa or the normal package repos?02:09
Atlantic777bcbc2: normal packages02:12
Atlantic777And I wonder, what happens when 13.04 is released, I mean, in the early dev phase of 13.10.02:13
bcbc2Atlantic777: try this http://askubuntu.com/q/99936/1491602:16
Atlantic777bcbc2: it's not that error, I solved that.02:17

bcbc2Atlantic777: have you gone through this? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PackageManagerTroubleshootingProcedure02:21
Atlantic777bcbc2: no I have not.02:24
=== johnjohn101 is now known as Guest78956
Atlantic777ok, that helped02:27
Atlantic777thanks bcbc202:27
=== johnjohn1011 is now known as johnjohn101
bcbc2Atlantic777: np :)02:28
Atlantic777I mean, switching to the main servers helped.02:28
bcbc2that seems odd02:28
Atlantic777btw, I was using us servers02:29
bcbc2I think that's what Guest88134 suggested02:29
Atlantic777yeah, and it's the first thing in the troubleshooting guide02:29
Atlantic777btw, I would like to bum this bug, but not sure how https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wicd/+bug/113252902:30

MoPacI'm hoping for some ideas on how I might diagnose what I think is a problem with Desktop Wall in Compiz.  With edge flipping functions enabled, the edge will flip only once after a login, and then never again.  It can be a pointer flip or a DnD or move, but after that one flip, it's as if the option isn't turned on02:31
MoPac(the flipping options are still checked in CCSM - there is no visible sign that the setting has actually reverted.  The edges just no longer work)02:32
bcbc2Anyone got mir to work? I can get the egl_mirtriangle to run, but computer boots to a black screen if I add 'type=mir' to lightdm.conf02:45
vince__hello08:46
vince__can anyone help me get 13.04 to show up in the boot menu along side 12.04.2 & 12.10?08:52

alankilaMy experimentation with OS X -like but not as blurry font rendering technique is drawing to a close. I believe this is nearly production ready in sense that there are only minor tweaks to the algorithms required anymore.10:21

alankilaI have taken this alpha correction technique pretty much as far as it can go10:23

ubottuUEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware, it is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI13:48
Ziggyiv tryed most of the stuff nothing works and if i run the boot-repair it just hangs on Reinstalling grub .....13:52

bjsniderziggy, i'd certainly look over all of the steps outlined on the wiki page. i also don't see why you have to have your storage disk be sda. can you not just switch the sata cables around, if that's the issue?14:27
ziggyi cant switch them.... warrantu issues if i do....14:28
bjsnideroh, gimme a break14:28
ziggyso you meen if i open it upp and switch them my warranty is still okej _14:29

bjsniderwhat the warranty said was, if you break it, it's your fault14:30
ziggyim no warranty expert thats why im asking14:30
ziggyokej then14:30

iKillCyphernope14:35
iKillCypherbut want to learn14:35
IdleOnethen you don't want to start with a dev release14:35
BluesKajthen maybe you should dualboot14:35
bjsniderrun a livecd first and then go from there14:36
iKillCypherwhy not ?14:36
BluesKaj!dualboot | iKillCypher14:36

IdleOnebecause there is a good chance it is broken and you won't know how to fix it.14:36
iKillCypherbut isnt it faster14:36
bjsniderfaster, i doubt it14:37
IdleOneyou should download 12.10 and try it on a live USB14:37

bjsnidercould be more stable, depending on your hardware14:37
ryeor inside a VM14:37
iKillCypherso what if I want to upgrade from 12.10 to 13.04 ?14:38
iKillCypherneed redownload the iso and reinstall14:38
iKillCypher:(14:38
bjsnidermight be faster if your system is loaded with crapware/bloatware14:38
bjsnideryour ubuntu system will tell you there is a new version and ask you if you want to upgrade14:39
bjsniderit will then download the new packages and upgrade14:39
iKillCypherso my data wont be lost ?14:39
bjsniderof course not14:39
iKillCypherso it is possible to upgrade from 12.10 - > 13.04 ?14:39
BluesKajyes14:39
bjsniderlinux wouldn't be of much use if it destroyed your data during upgrades14:39
IdleOneiKillCypher: once 13.04 is released to the public, yes.14:39
iKillCyphernice :D14:40
iKillCyphercant wait14:40
iKillCypherlol14:40

maxbIs anyone familiar with unetbootin? It seems to fail to start for me on raring. Run as my user, it exits with no diagnostic info at all. If I sudo first, it hangs. From what I can tell from strace, it seems to be stuck trying to do something with dbus22:08

Atlantic777+1, I've got that problem with unetbootin too23:33
Atlantic777maxb: did you report a bug maybe?23:33
maxbNot yet, I was hoping to gather information more useful than "it hangs" first23:33
Atlantic777maxb: I think it's some problem with gksudo actually.23:35
Atlantic777Let's report a bug and maybe somebody will have idea what else to check. :)23:36
maxbInterestingly, I have two computers running raring, and it only hangs on one of them23:39
