[02:15] <dersteer> question.  I would like to change the size of the dock.  The more icons I add the smaller they get. How do I modify it?
[14:55] <keyborad_apeman> hello all, trying to install fresh gnome ubuntu on lenovo T510 (was running TLS 12.04 before) but for some reason getting kernel panic - not syncing : No init found... Any ideas ? Thanks
[14:56] <keyborad_apeman> fstab is good, disk has been repartitioned in every way to remedy this but same error comes up
[14:57] <mgedmin> is this when you're booting the livecd?
[15:01] <keyborad_apeman> mgedmin: no, live is working fine, its after the installation that kernel panic is kicking inn
[15:02] <mgedmin> interesting!
[15:02] <keyborad_apeman> mgedmin: also checked as I said fstab and all partitions with uid's are correct
[15:03] <keyborad_apeman> tried with and with out third party drivers
[15:03] <mgedmin> that error usually means your initramfs didn't load the drivers for your hard disk or filesystem
[15:03] <mgedmin> (or raid)
[15:03] <keyborad_apeman> standard disk SAT-a, and ext4 default files system
[15:03] <mgedmin> 32-bit or 64-bit os?
[15:03] <keyborad_apeman> 64 bit
[15:03] <mgedmin> grub or uefi?
[15:04] <keyborad_apeman> thats what I am wondering my self
[15:04] <mgedmin> heh, probably grub
[15:04] <keyborad_apeman> I didnt see any option to choose
[15:04] <keyborad_apeman> yes probably
[15:04] <keyborad_apeman> whats even more strange is default ubuntu with unity installs with out issues
[15:05]  * mgedmin scratches head
[15:05] <keyborad_apeman> I prefer gnome hence downloading this version
[15:05] <keyborad_apeman> mgedmin: you and me brother ...you and me
[15:05] <mgedmin> well, it's certainly possible to install ubuntu + unity, then apt-get install ubuntu-gnome-desktop ubuntu-gnome-default-settings
[15:05] <mgedmin> (which is what I did, a few releases ago, and then just kept upgrading in place)
[15:06] <keyborad_apeman> true, didnt try that
[15:06] <mgedmin> if the ubuntu gnome installer is broken, you should probably report a bug
[15:06] <mgedmin> but that's above my pay grade
[15:06] <keyborad_apeman> not sure if its hardware related
[15:06] <keyborad_apeman> maybe my lenovo T510 is just difficult
[15:07] <mgedmin> if stock ubuntu can be installed, there's no reason ubuntu-gnome should have problems
[15:07] <mgedmin> the difference is in the set of installed packages, basically
[15:07] <mgedmin> drivers etc are all the same
[15:07] <keyborad_apeman> mgedmin: yup, my conclusion is the same
[15:08] <keyborad_apeman> will try to download iso again and make usb from scratch
[15:08] <keyborad_apeman> mgedmin: thanks for input man
[15:09] <mgedmin> or boot into the menu and check for errors?
[15:10] <keyborad_apeman> rescue ?
[15:10] <keyborad_apeman> kernel panic on that as well
[15:11] <mgedmin> no, the livecd boot menu has an option to check itself
[15:11] <mgedmin> iirc
[15:11] <keyborad_apeman> cant see that anywhere
[15:12] <keyborad_apeman> you mean md5sum
[15:13] <mgedmin> probably
[15:17] <keyborad_apeman> mgedmin: sum is the same..very odd
[15:17] <mgedmin> could be a bug
[15:18] <keyborad_apeman> might be, where can I check/report it ?
[23:30] <c_smith> looks like the patch that was put in for Empathy to get Facebook working again was backported.
[23:30] <c_smith> probably old news, though
