[11:27] TheDrums, I was trying to test the trusty iso form the instruction you wrote a couple of days ago [11:28] but I'm not savvy enough to really understand what to do. :/ [11:29] OK, where are you? [11:30] +stuck [11:30] well I got stuck already at "just echo the contents you see on bzr into it" [11:31] I booted an iso on USB to test the shoft and F6, but did not get any boot command line either [11:32] Right, did you see the little icon at the bottom? [11:32] a small white line in the bottom left, yes. Any icon, no. [11:32] first I get the unetbootin menu though. Do I need to run this on an installed version? [11:34] Oooooooh! unetbootin breaks how the menu works, OK. Then there I think it's "Tab" to edit the boot line? [11:35] hehe, aha. [11:35] http://smg.photobucket.com/user/griff_90/media/d9c03dfb.jpg.html is on CD, Vbox, and basically !unetbootin [11:36] The point of this is to create that file before any user has the option to login, so it needs to be created before lightdm first starts up. [11:36] Ok, so after that I just write "text" ? [11:37] create which file? the /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/10-ubuntustudio.conf ? [11:38] Yep. [11:40] So I will need to check what the file looks like in the bzr before I boot up, create the file and add everything in there. Then startx [11:41] ah no, then sudo service lightdm start [11:41] Correct, for starting lightdm and the file. Easy thing to do, download it to a place you can easily wget it from. [11:42] that would require network access though [11:43] you can also use a usb stick, mount it, then cp the file over [11:43] or from internal hard drive [11:43] ok [11:43] lunch break over, I will make another go later on again. :)' [11:50] zequence: Right, normally testing in vbox so I think wget first (And, generally have network anyway) [11:50] so I could run it within a vbox without getting strange results? [12:53] cub: Yes. It's more or less the same deal [19:10] TheDrums, no luck for me to get that text boot. [19:11] Right away it shows a menu to choose language, then the "Try Ubuntu Studio wihtout installing" menu and directly after that it show the Ubuntu Studio logo with a spinning circle and booting [19:11] no sign of the icons you showed in the screenshot, shift and F6 didn't do anything anywhere. [19:12] Not sure what I'm doing wrong [19:14] We have the old menu [19:14] Could be why [19:14] We should probably think about changing it [19:22] I suppose it is. Not sure how to circumvent it to do the test. I'd like to learn though [19:22] I tried the different F6 Options but nothing that would give me a text boot .. so far. [20:08] I think I got it... [20:17] Alright, zequence, TheDrums, so how can I tell if my test was successful? :D After I put in the file and started lightdm I got the normal desktop. Perhaps that was the success? [20:17] zequence: I like the old menu better. :) [20:17] cub: Did you ever see the lightdm prompt? Are you in the UbuntuStudio session? [20:18] After boot I only got a text prompt [20:18] where I created the file, the service lightdm start, which loaded up the "normal" desktop [20:18] Then yep. [20:18] what would have happened if it had failed? [20:19] You'd see the lightdm login screen, as it is now. [20:20] right, no I never got the graphic login screen [20:20] I assume that would have been the lightdm login screen? [20:20] Mhmm. [20:21] cool, I learned something new today then. :) [20:21] Beta freeze has already hit, though. [20:22] s/Beta/Alpha2/ [20:22] TheDrums meant: "Alpha2 freeze has already hit, though." [20:24] but ubuntu studio is not part of the alphas, do it wouldn't make any change? [20:26] what did this change fix? That users would get the lightdm login screen when booting into Live session? [20:29] Yes, and not only that, but normally get a different language and the Xfce session. [20:37] aha [21:27] Also rather than submitting to you the Xubuntu Additional Drivers desktop file, I commented on the bug report and had it re-opened so hopefully you'll get it anyway.
