| nonuby | @bekks mounting removable storage is pretty critical to a normal desktop experience (unless you advocate xubuntu is only for dev/sysops etc..), thanks for pointing out the workaround although still such common use should require a workaround and certainly should be marked low 20 days prior to a release | 11:15 |
| nonuby | should require --> shouldnt require | 11:15 |
| bekks | It isnt even vital. It is a nice feature, it doesnt break anything at all. The use can stikll work flawlessly, and has to do ONE manual step only. Thats totally acceptable for NOT marking a bug as "showstopper", "breaker" or even "critical". | 11:19 |
| bekks | It's like you car has a broken window winder, and you are insisting you cant drive that car anymore at all :) | 11:20 |
| nonuby | bekks, we disagree on this, pissing around with a wrapper script with a sleep a solution isnt an out the box solutions, lets just hope its get fixed before release | 11:20 |
| nonuby | its a problem if on launch day all 11,000 preorder cars have fucked wipers yes | 11:20 |
| bekks | Can you watch your language please? If not, this discussion is over now. | 11:21 |
| nonuby | with a Low priority though its may be like the mess with 13.04 or 12.10 with the stalled login that took 2 minutes | 11:21 |
| bekks | Even 11.000 broken window winders will nont make cars unusable, in fact. It may be a problem, but that problem doesnt break onee single care. | 11:22 |
| bekks | car. | 11:22 |
| nonuby | unless it rains.. | 11:22 |
| nonuby | anyway, we disagree.. | 11:22 |
| bekks | The car will still be usable, even in rain. Wet, but usable. | 11:23 |
| nonuby | yes, but if manufacturers realises 20 days before launch day that they were in this position this might not rank it as low priority to ship a car with working wipers | 11:23 |
| bekks | And even if it isnt low prio it will not break a single car. | 11:24 |
| nonuby | analogies always break down, we disagree on the matter.. | 11:24 |
| bekks | No one will jump off a bridge just because this feature isnt working. It isnt critical. | 11:24 |
| bekks | However. | 11:24 |
| nonuby | although someone might crash... analogies | 11:24 |
| bekks | Some people even die standing next to their car watching at the broken winder. Possibilities. Analogies. | 11:25 |
| nonuby | i couldnt give someone a USB stick with 14.04 on 26th (assumption - because Low it wont be fixed in ~20 days) on say check on this lightweight distro that out the box just works (just not heavy on resources) when they cant frickin mount a USB stick without a workaround that most wont know how to use | 11:26 |
| bekks | Then comment on that bug and insist on marking it a total breaker. I dont thing you will be successful but thats your only chance. And dont stop in the middle of the highway ot watch your broken winder. You might get hit by a truck. | 11:27 |
| nonuby | the intent was to get it bumped to High, because plug in USB sticks and drives is a regular task for most users | 11:28 |
| penguin42 | what bug number is this? | 11:29 |
| Crashbit | regular!=critical | 11:29 |
| nonuby | @penguin42 | 11:29 |
| nonuby | <asdasd> that is what happened to me, even though FGLRX was still installed and loaded in the kernel | 11:29 |

| nonuby | <asdasd> dhcp was also broken for me, yes | 11:29 |
| nonuby | <asdasd> but I believe that is fixed now | 11:29 |
| bekks | nonuby: Discussing bug in IRC will not raise their priority in launchpad, not at all. Submit your comments to the bug, to raise the bug heat. | 11:29 |
| nonuby | <asdasd> but the graphics issue is still there | 11:29 |

| Crashbit | this bug is for 13.10 version | 11:31 |
| Crashbit | also for 14.04 ? | 11:32 |
| penguin42 | nonuby: Given that the upstream bug is still open, it sounds like they need to go and fix it - go get them to fix thunar and then someone could pull the fix in | 11:32 |
| nonuby | how do I find who is responsible then if not the distro? Benedikt Meurer last article is aug 06, yes im runing 14.04 | 11:33 |
| Crashbit | mm, ok http://packages.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/reports/bugs/1210898 | 11:33 |
| penguin42 | nonuby: Because that bug has an upstream bug link | 11:33 |

| ubottu | bugzilla.xfce.org bug 9193 in General "Automount doesn't work." [Normal,New] | 11:34 |
| nonuby | Normal priority is a little more appeasing.. :) | 11:35 |
| penguin42 | nonuby: So, tell me, how easy is it to work around; it says automounting isn't working - but from the thunar gui can you then mount it with a few clicks or do you have to pop a shell open? | 11:36 |
| nonuby | thunar (the default file manager, folder show in an xubuntu install) doesnt seem to show an option to mount it, i believe its something to do with udisks2 calls thunar-volman which then send a message to thunar instance to show the drive | 11:45 |
| penguin42 | hmm I would have been tempted to set it a bit higher than low then - I normally reserve low for things that have an easy work around or are totally irrelevant, but I agree mounting a thumb drive is a bit more than that | 11:47 |
| penguin42 | nonuby: But in the end , I still think it's upstream that have to go and fix it first | 11:47 |
| penguin42 | nonuby: It's going to take someone who understands the innards of Thunar to fix it | 11:49 |

| majod | when i do dpkg -i <package>, it installs fine...when i double click on it, it doesnt install | 13:00 |
| BluesKaj | !packages | 13:00 |
| ubottu | You can browse and search for Ubuntu packages using !Synaptic, !KPackageKit, !Adept, "apt-cache search <keywords or regex>", or online at http://packages.ubuntu.com - Ubuntu has about 30000 packages available, so please *search* for an official package before installing things in awkward ways! | 13:00 |
| majod | but...thats just avoiding the solution by some workaround, which doesnt even work for every software...when someone just provides .deb file on a website, i cant do anything but to download it and isntall from it | 13:02 |
| Crashbit | majod: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/360155/test/Captura%20de%202014-04-06%2015%3A00%3A15.png and I have steam and skype | 13:02 |
| Crashbit | majod: but your problem with software-center and .debs is strange | 13:03 |
| majod | but i believe you...i can also see steam in software center | 13:03 |
| majod | not skype tho | 13:03 |
| majod | but when i have .deb on my disk...and doubleclick on it...i expect it to install...not that i have to run terminal and dpkg it | 13:04 |
| BluesKaj | majod, 14.04 is a devel OS afterall, and skypw isn't really well supported in Linux since MS bought the company | 13:04 |
| majod | but the problem is not about skype | 13:04 |
| Crashbit | majod: yo can open other programs requiero root access from GUI, for example gnome-control-center user and accounts and unlock it ? | 13:04 |
| majod | its about debs | 13:04 |
| majod | please... | 13:04 |
| majod | Crashbit: let me try but i guess theres no problem with that | 13:05 |
| majod | sure, unlocked... | 13:05 |
| majod | what happens with software center is: i doubleclick .deb, software center opens and starts to install | 13:05 |
| majod | downloads everything, "applying changes" | 13:06 |
| majod | and at the end | 13:06 |
| majod | i just get an error message saying: "package operation failed: the installation or removal of a software package failed" | 13:07 |
| majod | i click "details" and theres simple output from installing but with absolutely no errors | 13:07 |
| majod | and the software is not listed as installed...when i do dpkg -i package, it prints the same output, but installs just fine. | 13:08 |
| Crashbit | majod: You can try to launch it from console with --force-rtl | 13:09 |
| Crashbit | majod: software-center --force-rtl yourpackename.deb | 13:09 |
| majod | what is --force-rtl? | 13:10 |
| Crashbit | it's for debuggin | 13:10 |
| majod | ok | 13:10 |
| majod | do i have to be su? | 13:10 |
| Crashbit | no, withoutroot | 13:10 |
| majod | ok | 13:10 |
| Crashbit | i know :þ | 13:10 |
| majod | why is actually right to left for debugging? :D | 13:11 |

| BluesKaj | anyway gone for now | 13:21 |
| majod | it doesnt work with fresh install | 13:21 |
| Crashbit | majod: try tu purge software-center and reinstall it | 13:21 |
| majod | hmmmm | 13:21 |
| Crashbit | wait | 13:22 |

| majod | i guess it might be unsupported packages | 13:24 |
| majod | but still idk why dpkg installs it fine then | 13:24 |
| Crashbit | You prove it after reinstall ? | 13:24 |
| majod | yes, just tried it | 13:24 |
| majod | btw...you said you have skype in software center? which source is it? i checked all but i can get skype only from official page | 13:25 |

| TeraJL | hi there, i've been using 14.04, and i've installed gnome-shell, but on the login, i don't find the button to switch DE, am i missing something? | 13:34 |
| gartral | so who killed UNR? | 13:34 |
| ikonia | what do you mean who killed it ? | 13:37 |
| ikonia | it was retired | 13:38 |
| ikonia | and the product merged into ubuntu | 13:38 |
| gartral | ikonia: it doesn't work on a 1024x900 screen,all the dialouges are too big | 13:41 |
| ikonia | what doesn't ? | 13:42 |
| bekks | Unity works fine here on 1024x600 | 13:42 |
| gartral | bekks: no, it doesn't, the upgrade dialouge is too damn big, it isn't displayed and client is complaning that they can't see buttons | 13:43 |
| gartral | this is an AOD250, basically an older netbook | 13:45 |
| === miraiE is now known as mamat | ||
| gartral | to anyone that cares, the Ubuntu+1 community really needs to offer support for netbooks, else you are all going to take a hit in usership.. fix the netbook release. Or die as an OS, those are the options i see | 13:57 |
| ikonia | ok, thanks | 13:57 |
| ikonia | noted | 13:57 |
| bekks | Netbooks are actually already dead again. :) | 13:58 |
| bekks | Thats why displays grew again. | 13:58 |
| gartral | ikonia: you've been a great friend over the years, and i offer my respect, i hope you can UNR rebooted in time | 13:58 |
| ikonia | I have no interest in unr - it's dead | 13:58 |
| ikonia | I suggest you focus on swapping distros as you said to find a solution | 13:58 |
| gartral | bekks: I have Arch running on a 13 year old desktop that the ubuntu kerenl wouldn't boot on, what's wrong here? | 13:59 |
| ikonia | nothing to do with this channel | 14:00 |
| bekks | I dont care a second about arch anymore, which I used myself for about 6 years in the past. I quit using it for good reasons, and all of these are offtopic in here. | 14:00 |
| ikonia | please stop trying to provoke a problem | 14:00 |
| ikonia | you've said you are dumping ubuntu - it doesn't work for you, fine, please do s | 14:00 |
| ikonia | move on | 14:00 |
| gartral | ikonia: then Cononical is to be accused of the same atrocity that Apple anf Oracle is. | 14:00 |
| ikonia | not interested in that | 14:00 |
| ikonia | I suggest you move onto a distro that meets your needs | 14:01 |
| gartral | i'll disengage now, good bye | 14:01 |
| ikonia | don't want to discuss it any more | 14:01 |
| ikonia | thanks | 14:01 |

| majod | anyone managed to run popcorn time on trusty? | 15:28 |
| ElLute | hi | 16:18 |
| ElLute | does anyone know how i get the kernel log of a previous, failed startup? | 16:18 |
| penguin42 | it depends how far it got | 16:19 |
| penguin42 | ElLute: Check /var/log/dmesg or dmesg.0 to see if it's got the previous version in - but if the bootup failed before the logging stuff managed to write it to disk it won't have anything | 16:19 |
| ElLute | i have lvm on dm-crypt, i can enter the password and then it says that it is not able to mount swap | 16:19 |
| penguin42 | hmm, that might not be a kernel level issue | 16:20 |
| penguin42 | see if there are any logs in /var/log/upstart from that boot | 16:20 |
| ElLute | ok, /var/log/dmesg seems to be the log from the previous startup | 16:20 |
| ElLute | the problem is, i have a new laptop, if i start up without acpi it is working, with acpi i need to debug now :) | 16:21 |
| penguin42 | hth does acpi change whether it can mount swap.... | 16:22 |
| penguin42 | ElLute: If this is a new laptop I'd try a simple installation without crypt/lvm first and debug your acpi issues on a simple setup first | 16:23 |
| ElLute | the live-start had already the same problems... hanging during startup | 16:25 |
| ElLute | penguin42: I wanted to slide the laptop from development and trial machine directly to production after stable release of 14.04, but it seems i have to setup anyways to steps | 16:28 |
| penguin42 | ElLute: What's the laptop and what's the misbehaviour? | 16:28 |
| ElLute | thinkpad t440p | 16:28 |
| ElLute | acpi=off it boots up fine | 16:28 |
| ElLute | default it hangs somewhere in the startup process | 16:29 |
| ElLute | with the encrypted lvm it tells sometimes things about ext4 issues which disappear with acpi=off and other times it just halts | 16:30 |
| ElLute | penguin42: do you know maybe how i can give the crashdump kernel different parameters as the normal? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/CrashdumpRecipe | 16:31 |
| penguin42 | I've not used crashdump | 16:31 |
| bekks | Actually its not even a kernel crash, since the kernel already booted, passed control to init, and dm-crypt is nont able to unnlock swap properly. | 16:33 |
| penguin42 | hmm, t440p - I'd look at others hitting similar things; Lenovo sometimes do odd things - I used to have a w520 I had to guess some parameters for | 16:33 |
| ElLute | 12.04.4 seems to work fine, but I thought since I have a machine available for playing around right at the release, I would like to contribute a little bit of testing | 16:34 |
| penguin42 | ElLute: Take the 'quiet' off the boot line in grub, and see if you get any more detail on the console - if you get a backtrace or anything then take a screenshot and lets see | 16:34 |
| ElLute | i remove quiet and splash? | 16:34 |
| ElLute | it is quite a long time since I lastly dug so deep in the system (blush) | 16:35 |
| penguin42 | ElLute: Yeh get some detail out of it | 16:35 |
| penguin42 | ElLute: Does that model have Nvidia and Intel graphics? | 16:35 |
| ElLute | is there a verbouse option | 16:35 |
| ElLute | jup, both | 16:35 |
| penguin42 | ElLute: Just a gut feeling, try it on Intel only - I used to have a w520 that lost all its interrupts on Nvidia | 16:36 |
| ElLute | ok | 16:36 |
| ElLute | thanks, i will make a reboot now | 16:36 |
| penguin42 | broken bios I think | 16:36 |
| ElLute | get back here later | 16:36 |
| penguin42 | has the 440p got the really nice screen that the 540p has got? | 16:37 |

| === harris_ is now known as basketball | ||
| penguin42 | basketball: That type of thing normally happens when you have an unhappy usb connection | 16:56 |
| basketball | penguin42, should i try different cable | 16:57 |
| penguin42 | basketball: I would, or a different USB port | 16:57 |
| basketball | i tried different port | 16:57 |
| basketball | brb | 16:57 |
| basketball | gotta restart xchat | 16:57 |
| basketball | back | 16:59 |
| penguin42 | basketball: it's a bit odd with a printer, so I would try another cable; I've seen it with unpowered devices when the port can't supply enough power, or with a bad hub | 17:00 |
| ElLute | penguin42: very good gut feeling8-) | 17:00 |
| basketball | it is in a hub but everything else in the hub works | 17:00 |
| penguin42 | ElLute: It worked with the Intel ? | 17:00 |
| basketball | and the printer did not work even when it wasnt in hub | 17:00 |
| ElLute | penguin42: not yet. i was not able to disable nvidia in the bios, but during startup I saw something a little strange with the noveau driver and i was able to get an error message which could help the acpi-guys to fix something | 17:02 |

| BlueEagle | My qdbus appears to be broken. :/ | 17:54 |
| BlueEagle | when I attempt to start Kubuntu I get a message saying it's not able to start D-Bus. Can you call qdbus? When I attempt to run qdbus it sais qdus could not exec '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/bin/qdbus': No such file or directory. | 17:56 |
| basketball | penguin42, what do i do | 17:56 |
| penguin42 | basketball: I've not got any good ideas I'm afraid, if you're getting basic reset errors like that on usb | 17:57 |
| BlueEagle | It is true that no such file exists, but when I run `which qdbus` it sais /usr/bin/qdbus, so I do not know what the reference to this other directory is. Also, symlinking qdbus from the long directory to the one where qdbus actually exists appears to to work. | 17:57 |
| basketball | penguin42, do you know who might know | 17:57 |
| penguin42 | basketball: I'd look for one of the printing places, look for stuff related to that printer or hplip | 17:58 |
| basketball | penguin42, the weird thing is it worked in 13.10 | 17:58 |
| penguin42 | basketball: OK, so file a bug for it since that's not good; you could also try some different kernels and see if it helps - try the very latest mainline and also try an old 13.10 kernel | 17:59 |
| basketball | i did file a bug and there is no activity | 17:59 |
| penguin42 | basketball: OK, I'd say if it's at the USB level then I'd try kernel versions since it's pretty low level | 18:00 |
| BlueEagle | Also this did work fine earlier today, but then I ran the latest updates which appears to have broken it. :( | 18:00 |
| basketball | penguin42, idk what a kernel version is | 18:00 |
| penguin42 | basketball: Then it's going to be pretty hard for you to debug it I'm afraid | 18:01 |
| penguin42 | basketball: You could try a local LUG or the like | 18:01 |
| basketball | do you think when final comes out it will be fixed | 18:01 |
| basketball | or is there like a broken file somewhere | 18:02 |
| penguin42 | basketball: Not many bugs are going to be fixed between now and final; however if it breaks a lot of people USB devices not just yours then there is a bigger chance | 18:04 |
| penguin42 | <food> | 18:04 |

| satmandu | Does anybody here have auto-hide launcher enabled? | 18:26 |
| satmandu | Does it work for you on 14.04? | 18:26 |
| CarlFK | satmandu: I think I did a few days ago when I was playing around | 18:26 |
| Crashbit | satmandu: Worked for me, but now I use gnome | 18:27 |
| satmandu | Any reason to use gnome vs the standard ubuntu gui? | 18:27 |
| penguin42 | basketball: You need to add a note to there saying that it worked for you on 13.10 (if it did) | 18:27 |
| Crashbit | satmandu: it's my preference, no technical reason | 18:28 |
| satmandu | thanks Crashbit | 18:28 |
| satmandu | I've done some googling, and there's a bit of chatter about the auto-hide not working in previous versions... and I'm just wondering what the best way to troubleshoot this is. | 18:29 |
| satmandu | Unrelated to that: Is there a way to import passwords and networks from a wpa_supplicant.conf to network manager? | 18:30 |
| satmandu | I'd like to get the networks I have already entered on my android device, all neatly saved inside a wpa_supplicant.conf file, into ubuntu, without manually entering everything. | 18:31 |
| BlueEagle | satmandu: At present I don't even have a working KDE environment because my qdbus is shot. | 18:36 |
| penguin42 | BlueEagle: I'd try logging out of desktop, into a text console, and then move all your . files into a 'broken' dir and try logging back in | 18:36 |
| BlueEagle | penguin42: Well, since I cannot log into the desktop that is out of the question. But I just found the solution. Apparently qdbus-qt5 was not installed. | 18:39 |
| BlueEagle | penguin42: Looks like a missed dependency that the update today borked. | 18:39 |
| BlueEagle | penguin42: However, manually installing it resolved the issue | 18:39 |
| penguin42 | BlueEagle: Login on the text consoe - from the login page ctrl-alt-f2 should get you a text mode | 18:39 |
| BlueEagle | penguin42: Yes, I already did. That's where I'm running irssi from now. But thanks anyway. | 18:40 |
| penguin42 | BlueEagle: So you should be able to move your dot files from there | 18:41 |
| BlueEagle | penguin42: Again, it was a matter of a missing qdbus-qt5 package. | 18:42 |
| penguin42 | BlueEagle: It's an interesting question why it was missing | 18:42 |
| BlueEagle | penguin42: It wasn't missing before I ran the upgrades earlier today. Also the qt4 qdbus does exist. Has something stopped usign the qt4 dbus and started to use the qd5 dbus without adding the dependency? | 18:43 |
| BlueEagle | qt5 qdbus* | 18:44 |
| penguin42 | BlueEagle: It does sound a bit odd that, I wonder whether you have a ppa installed | 18:45 |
| BlueEagle | ppa? | 18:45 |
| penguin42 | an extra package archive | 18:46 |
| BlueEagle | penguin42: I have not added any sources, no. | 18:47 |
| BlueEagle | penguin42: Do you run Kubuntu? If so, do you have qdbus-qt5 installed, and have you installed the latest updates? | 18:47 |
| penguin42 | BlueEagle: I don' t have any qt5 pacakges installed ( dpkg -l \*qt5\* ) | 18:48 |
| BlueEagle | penguin42: I have quite a few. I am doing some devel on cockatrice, and playing with qt5 too. | 18:49 |
| penguin42 | BlueEagle: Right, so I suspect your problem is it's using qt5 in some places and that needs a bunch of other bits of qt5 as soon as you start using any | 18:51 |
| BlueEagle | penguin42: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/7213701/ | 18:51 |
| BlueEagle | penguin42: But if Kubuntu/KDE starts requiring qdbus-qt5 when other qt5-packages are installed then qdbus-qt5 should be a dependency, should it not? | 18:52 |
| BlueEagle | penguin42: ie. I am not automatically running any of my stuff, and the issue comes as I attempt to log in, before the desktop shows. | 18:53 |
| penguin42 | BlueEagle: Yes - but a dependency on what - kubuntu doesn't need qt5, so it sounds like the act of pulling something in adds that dependency | 18:53 |
| BlueEagle | penguin42: Yeah, I do not know what is causing the dependency, and I am currently not very inclined to start removing parts of the system to see when it stops requiring it. I'll revisit the issue when I reinstall next time, which might not be until after the stable is released. :/ | 18:55 |
| BlueEagle | penguin42: unless I find myself lacking stuff to do an evening, of course. | 18:55 |
| optrusty | wait can I put a bot on my channel | 18:56 |
| optrusty | here is my channel #Funbase | 18:56 |
| BlueEagle | optrusty: I think that might be !ot tbh. | 18:57 |
| optrusty | BlueEagle: On my channel or this channel | 18:57 |
| BlueEagle | optrusty: If you are talking about an IRC bot, then it's !ot on this channel. What is off topic on your channel must be up to you. | 18:58 |

| trism | BlueEagle: is that what you're seeing? | 19:00 |
| pietro10 | question: was MATE removed from the trusty-proposed? I wanted to try it to see how my programs respond to taskbar quit requests. Thanks. | 19:01 |
| BlueEagle | trism: Indeed it is. | 19:02 |
| BlueEagle | trism: the error when running qdbus in terminal is: qdus could not exec '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/bin/qdbus': No such file or directory | 19:02 |
| k1l_ | pietro10: cinnamon was removed. mate should be still there | 19:02 |
| k1l_ | !info mate | 19:02 |
| penguin42 | pietro10: I see mate-desktop in the package list | 19:02 |
| ubottu | Package mate does not exist in trusty | 19:02 |
| k1l_ | !info mate-desktop | 19:02 |
| ubottu | mate-desktop (source: mate-desktop): Library with common API for various MATE modules. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.6.2-1 (trusty), package size 17 kB, installed size 95 kB | 19:02 |
| trism | pietro10: there are pieces there but the mate-session seems non-existent, which is probably required to actually use the session | 19:02 |
| trism | k1l_: yeah but that doesn't have the session stuff it only has a couple progs | 19:03 |
| pietro10 | trism: right; thanks | 19:03 |
| trism | pietro10: I think packaging might still be in progress in debian so we only have parts right now | 19:04 |
| pietro10 | I guess I'll test against GNOME 2 if that's still there instead (Metacity is) | 19:04 |
| trism | pietro10: the flashback session is still there and working | 19:05 |

| popey | anyone got up to date trusty - can you run mumble and see if it segfaults? | 19:12 |
| CarlFK | popey: juser@negk:~$ sudo apt-get install mumble ... what next? | 19:13 |
| popey | run it | 19:13 |
| pietro10 | seems to work here | 19:13 |
| popey | hmm | 19:13 |
| * penguin42 installs | 19:13 | |
| k1l_ | popey: works here | 19:13 |
| BlueEagle | popey: I do, and it doesn't | 19:13 |
| popey | bum | 19:13 |
| popey | it worked yesterday, wonder why it barfs today | 19:13 |
| pietro10 | popey: install gdb and mumble-dbg | 19:14 |
| pietro10 | then run gdb mumble | 19:14 |
| elfy | popey: another "wfm" here | 19:14 |
| pietro10 | type r and hit enter | 19:14 |
| CarlFK | heh.. warning: The VAD has been replaced by a hack pending a complete rewrite | 19:14 |
| popey | pietro10: ta | 19:14 |
| pietro10 | that should indicate where it's faulting | 19:14 |
| popey | 510../sysdeps/x86_64/dl-machine.h: No such file or directory. | 19:15 |
| penguin42 | popey: Looks good here as well | 19:15 |
| popey | http://paste.ubuntu.com/7213817/ | 19:15 |
| popey | thats the output I get | 19:16 |
| penguin42 | popey: That's ok, but get the full backtrace - or better ubuntu-bug it | 19:16 |
| popey | bug already filed | 19:16 |
| penguin42 | popey: number? | 19:16 |
| popey | its private | 19:16 |
| penguin42 | popey: Can you pastebin the out of bt full | 19:16 |
| penguin42 | popey: Checking it doesn't have passwords in | 19:16 |
| popey | http://paste.ubuntu.com/7213825/ is the bt full | 19:18 |
| penguin42 | popey: That's very unusual - it's happening during runtime linking | 19:19 |
| popey | oh there's loads more | 19:19 |
| penguin42 | oh | 19:20 |
| popey | http://paste.ubuntu.com/7213837/ | 19:20 |
| penguin42 | popey: If that's the full back trace that's still very very odd in the linker | 19:21 |
| popey | i have done updates and not rebooted | 19:21 |
| penguin42 | it might be best not to.... | 19:21 |
| popey | i prefer not to | 19:21 |
| penguin42 | popey: An update shouldn't cause that, nothing should cause that | 19:22 |
| penguin42 | popey: You didn't hit any disc fulls or the like? | 19:22 |
| popey | ooh | 19:22 |
| popey | i have a rogue mumble process hanging around | 19:22 |
| popey | oh no, thats the one in gdb I guess | 19:22 |
| popey | /home/alan/.Private 224G 196G 27G 88% /home/alan | 19:22 |
| popey | /dev/sdb1 231G 34G 194G 15% / | 19:22 |
| penguin42 | popey: My best guess would be a corrupt binary somewhere - it's very odd for something to fail that early | 19:23 |
| popey | lemme reinstall it | 19:23 |
| pietro10 | random question | 19:23 |
| penguin42 | pietro10: 78 | 19:23 |
| penguin42 | (random answer) | 19:23 |
| pietro10 | what decides update-alternatives auto mode priorities? | 19:23 |
| popey | before any research I am going to blame pulse | 19:24 |
| popey | its the 2012 way | 19:24 |
| DJones | popey: Thats what you get using automatix :) | 19:24 |
| popey | ooh retro! | 19:25 |
| popey | now, where's my motif | 19:25 |
| penguin42 | popey: That's a really really early link failure - it's quite unusual, if you're still seeing it after a reboot - on the offchance it reboots - I'd go and ask a toolchain person | 19:25 |
| penguin42 | anyway, nn | 19:25 |
| DJones | popey: Just updated my trusty install, installed mumble, ran mumble in terminal & it starts up, never used it before but I have the welcome to mumble audio wizard | 19:28 |
| popey | hmmm | 19:28 |
| * popey reboots | 19:29 | |
| DJones | terminal output when mumble is run shows http://paste.ubuntu.com/7213883/ | 19:30 |
| popey | well that was annoying.. rebooted and dns broke | 19:45 |
| popey | mumble starts though | 19:46 |
| pietro10 | ... | 19:46 |
| pietro10 | how do I start gnome-shell with startx? | 19:46 |
| pietro10 | or gnome-session? | 19:47 |
| k1l_ | pietro10: dont do that. start the *dm (lightdm or gdm) | 19:48 |
| pietro10 | ok | 19:48 |
| pietro10 | and lightdm aborted mysteriously | 19:48 |
| pietro10 | oh | 19:48 |
| pietro10 | root | 19:48 |
| pietro10 | blah | 19:48 |
| patbateman | hi | 19:49 |
| k1l_ | if you fiddle with root and sudo you will have problems with stuff in your /home that is owned by root:root and will make you not login anymore | 19:49 |
| patbateman | after installing bumblebee and nvidia driver my terminal window is empty, and no close buttons, captions | 19:49 |
| k1l_ | like .XAuthority | 19:49 |
| patbateman | any idea how to restore? | 19:49 |
| pietro10 | faiiled to get dbus connection | 19:49 |
| pietro10 | screw it I have no idea how this owrks | 19:51 |
| pietro10 | let's see if gdm works | 19:55 |
| pietro10 | ugh | 19:57 |
| pietro10 | why can only root run display managers | 19:57 |
| pietro10 | should I run sudo gdm/lightdm in the argument to startx? | 19:57 |
| k1l_ | pietro10: stop with startx | 19:57 |
| k1l_ | pietro10: first make sure your user doesnt ahve files in /home that belong to root:root (from your mistakes with root or sudo) | 19:58 |
| k1l_ | pietro10: then start lightdm /gdm with "sudo service lightdm start" | 19:58 |
| k1l_ | and yes the x-server needs root rights but ubuntu is configured not to use startx but to give the *dm the root rights | 19:58 |
| pietro10 | ok | 20:00 |
| pietro10 | the only two root files are .. and .dbus | 20:00 |
| pietro10 | I assume .. is fine (it IS /home) but what of .dbus | 20:00 |
| k1l_ | the .dbus folder needs to belong to your user | 20:01 |
| k1l_ | user_user | 20:01 |
| pietro10 | ok | 20:01 |
| k1l_ | user:user | 20:01 |
| pietro10 | fixed | 20:01 |
| pietro10 | that... wasn't what I wanted to do | 20:04 |
| pietro10 | screw it | 20:05 |
| pietro10 | just going to log out and log back in | 20:05 |
| pietro10 | let's just get the other session file s first... | 20:05 |
| pietro10 | thanks anyway k1l_; I'm just an idiot :D | 20:05 |

| pietro10 | now that I finished screwing around with desktops | 20:50 |
| pietro10 | how do I get lightdm back to the KDE style? | 20:50 |
| pietro10 | it's stuck on an ubuntu style with xfce background | 20:50 |
| pietro10 | removing /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf (which did not work before) did not fix it | 20:51 |

| toresbe | Hey folks, I have an interesting issue with the new Ubuntu I was hoping someone might help me shed some light on. I installed this laptop using wubi, so it's a loop file on the Windows partition. | 21:28 |
| toresbe | Now, the loop device is _read-only_. I have confirmed that the host file system is R/W, and I can mount it R/W by adding another loop device. | 21:30 |
| toresbe | But I can't move / to the new device. | 21:30 |
| toresbe | That's really odd. It works on the 13.10 kernel. | 21:38 |
| bekks | wubi is basically not supported anymore, since it is discontinued. | 21:42 |
| STiK | Keep forgetting that 14.04 is still beta it runs so good. | 22:11 |
| toresbe | bekks: well, that's fine but dist-upgrades shouldn't break it | 22:12 |
| bekks | toresbe: It is discontinued, so compatibility with updates isnt checked anymore. | 22:14 |
| toresbe | bekks: so you're saying people are OK with a significant proportion of the user base having their systems break on upgrade, in a way even a seasoned Unix user is puzzled by? That can't possibly be true. | 22:23 |
| CarlFK | toresbe: i would rather people spend their time on the supported cases | 22:30 |
| CarlFK | I am curious how you concluded significant proportion | 22:32 |
| pietro10 | Okay. What's the correct way to change the LightDM greeter used? Thanks. | 22:36 |
| toresbe | CarlFK: you guys aren't Ubuntu developers, right? | 22:47 |
| CarlFK | toresbe: I am not | 22:49 |
| toresbe | good, that's a relief | 22:49 |
| CarlFK | toresbe: do you have any stats, or are you assuming that "significant proportion of the user base" is like you? | 22:52 |
| toresbe | CarlFK: I know that a lot of people have installed with wubi. That's not something that's controversial to the point where it needs to be substantiated by statistics. | 22:54 |
| toresbe | CarlFK: Although wubi may well not be supported, which is a shame because it's really useful, that doesn't mean that it's OK for a major Linux distro to break on upgrades, rather than checking for the case and handling it (if necessary, by giving an error message on upgrading). | 22:55 |
| CarlFK | it is to OK. | 22:55 |
| CarlFK | that is the definition of supported. | 22:55 |
| CarlFK | and not supported. | 22:55 |
| toresbe | just like it's OK for me to stop wasting my time with this discussion - I mean, honestly. | 22:55 |
| pietro10 | what is supported in this case | 22:59 |
| pietro10 | supported by canonical or supported by the wubi developers? | 22:59 |
| CarlFK | heck if I know. I was more interested in the jump from "I broke my box" to "therefore a lot of people will too" | 23:00 |
| pietro10 | also | 23:02 |
| CarlFK | and other heavy word choice. | 23:02 |
| pietro10 | how do I get gtk+ to use the icons KDE assgined to it again | 23:02 |
| pietro10 | because it's not anymore | 23:02 |
| pietro10 | ok screw this I'm going to finish making sure quit events work right on unity and then remove it because it's caused everything so far | 23:08 |
