naught101I'm trying to install kubuntu with manual partitioning (trying to keep windows), on a hp 2000, which has EFI. Install appears to work, but thne when I start the computer, I get a grub terminal, and it doesn't boot to kubuntu01:48
naught101I've tried the install a few times, with the boot loader installed to /dev/sda, and to /dev/sda1, which is an EFI partition (although it's not at the start of the drive - does that matter?01:49
naught101I've also tried fixing it with boot-repair01:50
naught101twice, with different options. No joy.01:50
naught101Anyone know what the problem might be?01:51

dcmNindy_any idea's on my dell xps laptop kubuntu 12.04LTS, kde login hangs on tty7 (kde default gear screen never finishes) but x does load on tty8.  X is not fully functional on tty8 but kde menu and docky do work.04:31

jackyalcinecan you go into a tty and check X's log?04:53
dcmNindy_love the screen and backlit keys and it's an ebay score...yes i can, the system seems fully functional from tty8 except for some quirky X actions (screen saver in a xterm frame)04:58
dcmNindy_i did look at some X related logs suggested a few days go; but did not see anything from my inexperenced eyes. up until two days ago the kde menu would not come up in tty8; but after update / upgrade from the package manager, the K menu came up in the tty8.05:02
dcmNindy_i'm something of a distro hopper and was hoping to settle in with kubuntu.  right now i'm working out of my mint15 partition but can access the kubuntu partition05:05

* yossman waves07:46
yossmani just wanted to pass along, i just put kubuntu 12.04.3 onto this toshiba laptop i've been testing.. and out of the 10 distros 12 different kernel revisions, this one works the network hardware properly ;)07:47
valorienice!07:47
yossmanvery pleased, thanks for the great work ;)07:48
valoriethat's a rather old release, but I'm glad it's working for ya07:48
yossman10 distros AND 12 different kernel revisions, rather07:48
yossmanyea i prefer to the stick with the LTS releases, i have too many systems to be fighting with upgrade quirks all the time ;)07:49
valorienew LTS out in April07:50
yossmanso strange about this particular laptop's network hardware.. i have a laptop almost identical to it, same model, slightly different submodel (basically made 11 months earlier) and i never had a problem with it's network hardware yet on any ubuntu past 10.1007:54
yossmanthe wired network card is the same chipset on both, but the wireless is different07:55
valorieweird07:56
yossmansometimes the wired network card would just stop passing packets, other times the entire system would lock hard and the video would go fuzzed out.  oh well, just very glad it seems to be working fine now ;)07:56
yossmananything using kernels higher than like 3.2.x seems to not like this hardware combination anymore, put it that way ;(07:57
Okitainmy laptop doesn't like ubuntu with kernels >3.5.07:59
OkitainAnd linux with pretty much any kernel - it locks up the wireless sometimes.07:59
yossmanOkitain its also difficult to figure out which kernel subversion threads to follow too, when many of them are in concurrent development ;/08:00
yossmanthe kernel that comes with ubuntu 12.04.3 is 3.2.0-52 and it's more recent than some of the 3.5 and 3.7 kernels i tried08:00
=== Guest93962 is now known as rahul__
OkitainRH is famous for their 2.6.18 being basically 3.5 or so because of backporting.08:03
yossmanhuh, damn.08:10
yossmanit just finally froze up on me, the laptop ;.08:10
yossmansigh back to the drawing board..08:10
yossmani thought i had this problem licked finally but i guess not ;(08:11
yossmanfroze up while browsing web pages.  if i only use wireless on the laptop, it never locks up like this08:11
yossmanand i tested windows 7 on the hardware for a few days, never locked up once, grr08:11
stmsgebjgdyou should try the newest kernel08:16
stmsgebjgdjust compile the newest vanilla kernel on your kubuntu, it can solve lots of problems08:17
naftilos76Hi eveyone, i am on Kubuntu 13.10 and tried both nouveau and nvidia drivers. I want to go back to nouveau but could not do it. I tried purging nvidia drivers but i get a black display after next time booting. So i had to switch to another virtual terminal and reinstal nvidia drivers.08:22

qdatawhen nvidia driver installs it puts a blacklist on the nouveau module08:37
qdatause lsmod to see what you're loading08:38
qdataI've done the remove nvidia and reinstall nouveau before just don't remember everything I did08:39
qdataremove the nouveau blacklist and if you don't see it in lsmod you'll need to do mkinitrd to get it to load with the kernel at boot, that is, after an apt-get install nouveau08:41
TheFakeazneD525huh? Jockey?08:41
jackyalcineTheFakeazneD525: you never used jockey?08:41
TheFakeazneD525Yeah, that thing is buggy for me, if you must, use softwarecenter-gtk08:41
* jackyalcine wonders why no one's heard of it? lol08:41
TheFakeazneD525it can handle the driver bits08:42

naught101I just installed 13.10, on a HP 2000 laptop (using the "use entire disk" partitioning option). When I start it now, it gets to a grub console, and goes no further. Anyone know how I can fix that?12:20
BluesKajso wnat do get after clicking on kubuntu in grub, a blank screen with blinking cursor.....or?12:33
BluesKajwhat12:33
BluesKajnaught101,^12:33
jackyalcineI don't think he's getting the boot menu selection; he might be in a rescue console12:34
naught101BluesKaj: no, there is no grub boot selection menu. I just get a grub command line12:34
jackyalcinenaught101: do you know if your laptop requires UEFI booting?12:34
BluesKajgrub resccue ?12:34
naught101jackyalcine: yep.12:35
jackyalcinenow, is Secure Boot enabled?12:35
naught101jackyalcine: maybe it's this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/343980/kubuntu-uefi-dual-boot-with-windows-7-failed-at-installing-grub-efi I might try 12.10, then upgrade12:35
jackyalcineif so, try disabling it and booting.12:35
naught101jackyalcine: no, secure boot was never enabled.12:35
jackyalcinehmmm12:36
BluesKajnaught101, I just used legacy mode. After wiping W8, then partitioning for dual boot with W7 and Linux, but if you want EFI then keep researching , a lot depends on your machine.12:40
naught101BluesKaj: mmm... I wanted to keep windows 8 on it, just in case, since there was a license for it (friend's computer, not mine).12:41
naught101now I've screwed that though :P12:41
BluesKajok12:41
BluesKajnaught101, you might fix the problem with boot-repair utility, worked for my setup several times12:47
naught101BluesKaj: I tried that twice, with different settings, and got the same (null) result each time...12:48
BluesKajnaught101, ok what about looking at the partitions and checking for the rescue partition and BCD, http://www.boyans.net/RepairWindows/RepairWindowsBCD.html12:51
naught101BluesKaj: they're all gone now. I didn't want to keep them that badly, so I wiped all of the partitions except the windows8 partition and the EFI partition, and used the space to install linux. I think that screwed up anyway, but since then I've just wiped the whole hard drive, and tried installing from scratch, and it still won't work.12:53
BluesKajnaught101, then I think the legacy mode will worj for you since EFI boot is gone12:57
naught101BluesKaj: I assumed that since the installer was booted in EFI mode, it would install an EFI partition when it re-partitioned (I don't know exactly what the guided options do).12:59
BluesKajnaught101, yes that's the assumption , usually correct, but noy in my case13:02
BluesKajnot13:02
naught101BluesKaj: righto, I will give legacy a go in the morning.13:02

ShuraHi, since last updates, my NFS shares are not auto mounted at boot. I have to "sudo mount -a" every time.17:19
ShuraIs there a way to fix nfs mount or launch "sudo mount -a" after the boot (without entering the password) ?17:20
BluesKajShura, set it up in /etc/fstab , like so: nfs-server:/   /mnt   nfs    auto  0  017:27
BluesKajShura, this is my reference URL for NFS setup, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo17:29

lynn_I'd like to know why Kubuntu recommends its 32-bit version when the 64-bit one is available for a 64-bit system.20:43
lordievaderlynn_: There was a discussion about it a few months back: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kubuntu-devel/2013-September/007305.html20:47
lynn_<lordievader> what was the result, consensus (?) of that discussion?20:55
lordievaderlynn_: Err, can't remember. Thought it had to do with supporting older pc's.20:55
lynn_<lordievader>  Sorry.  I just saw your link.  I've clicked it and now will read it.  Thanks.20:56
lordievaderlynn_: No problem.20:56
lynn_<lordievader>  However, do you know of any real reason not to use the 64-bit version on a powerful enough 64-bit machine?20:56
lordievaderlynn_: Driver compatibility (though you shouldn't face that nowadays). If your machine only has 2GB of ram 32bit is in some cases faster than 64bit.20:57
lordievaderlynn_: I'd say if you can go 64bit, go 64bit.20:57
ElTimoKDE keeps erasing my audio settings every half hour or so.20:58

lordievaderlynn_: I'm not really sure what you are planning.20:59
lynn_But I'm thinking of putting it on my auxiliary unit, which has only two gigs of ram.  I guess you'd suggest the 32-bit version for that one, eh?20:59
lordievaderlynn_: For two GB it doesn't really matter. Both will do.21:00
lordievader(If the cpu supports it, that is)21:00
lynn_Ah, the cpu does support it; it's a 64-bit system, too.21:00
lynn_lordievader:  I see that you're in the Netherlands.  Did you see Amira Willighagen's performances on HGT?21:02
lynn_That's Holland's Got Talent.21:03
lordievaderlynn_: Never heard of her, but that is more a topic for #kubuntu-devel21:03
lynn_What is #kubuntu-devel?  Wouldn't that be for developers?21:04
lordievaderlynn_: Err that should be #kubuntu-offtopic ... -.-21:04
