| TheMuso | xnox: Is there any reason why org.gnome.desktop.background show-desktop-icons is unset in bin/ubiquity-dm? Bzr revision 5814 doesn't mention that change in its changelog. Leaving it unset when one clicks the "try Ubuntu" button in ubiquity causes keyboard and accessibility issues. | 06:26 |

| xnox | TheMuso: so unsetting that key, will not load nautilus on the desktop by default. | 08:44 |
| xnox | which we really don't need nor want in the ubiquity-dm, as we want gnome-settings-daemon to paint the background for us. | 08:45 |
| xnox | TheMuso: with "show-desktop-icons" as true, I get no wallpaper painted in ubiquity by gnome-settings-daemon. No sound in my VM for some reason today, will test on spare laptop. | 09:52 |
| brendand | how do i properly mount a disk image file? | 14:36 |
| brendand | sudo mount -o loop -rw -t auto saucy-server-cloudimg-armhf-disk1.img tmp | 14:36 |
| brendand | mount: you must specify the filesystem type | 14:36 |
| cjwatson | -rw isn't a valid mount option. you probably meant -o loop,rw | 14:37 |
| cjwatson | as for the rest, I don't know what type the cloud images are and we don't produce them, ask the server team | 14:37 |
| xnox | brendand: is it partitioned? maybe you want $ sudo kpartx -a saucy-server*.img and then mount the partitions, which should be mapped in /dev/mapper/loop*p1 and somesuch. | 14:39 |
| brendand | xnox, kpartx doesn't show anything | 14:41 |
| brendand | xnox, does that mean it isn't partitioned? | 14:41 |
| cjwatson | brendand: Please ask the server/cloud people | 14:42 |
| brendand | cjwatson, should the above work for a desktop image, so i have a reference point? | 14:43 |
| cjwatson | $ sudo mount -o loop saucy-desktop-amd64.iso /mnt | 14:43 |
| cjwatson | [sudo] password for cjwatson: | 14:43 |
| cjwatson | mount: warning: /mnt seems to be mounted read-only. | 14:43 |
| cjwatson | <cjwatson@amber ~/cdimage>$ | 14:43 |
| brendand | cjwatson, that's a yes then | 14:45 |
| brendand | #query ubuntu-server | 14:45 |
| brendand | doh | 14:45 |
| brendand | for one thing that should be join | 14:45 |
| xnox | brendand: sudo mount -o loop precise-server-cloudimg-armhf.img /mnt | 14:46 |
| xnox | brendand: works here..... what image did you download? | 14:46 |
| brendand | xnox, oh - saucy. let me try precise then | 14:46 |
| xnox | brendand: ..... what URL did you use to download your image? | 14:47 |
| brendand | xnox, and it's the armhf image | 14:47 |
| brendand | xnox, http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/saucy/current/saucy-server-cloudimg-armhf-disk1.img | 14:48 |
| xnox | brendand: file saucy-server-cloudimg-armhf-disk1.img | 14:48 |
| xnox | saucy-server-cloudimg-armhf-disk1.img: QEMU QCOW Image (v2), 1480550400 bytes | 14:48 |
| xnox | brendand: http://askubuntu.com/questions/4396/how-do-i-mount-a-qcow2-disk-image | 14:48 |
| brendand | i should have known that - thanks! | 14:56 |

| TheMuso | xnox: Right, we should probably re-enable it when the user clicks "Try Ubuntu", more for accessibility reasons than anything else... | 21:42 |
