[09:50] good morning [10:19] Ubuntu was giving me the same problem as Xubuntu was doing so, sorry folks I re-installed Xubuntu and i got help from a friend on another channel and fixed the bug that was in the kernel so it's probably a bug that's also in the ubuntu kernel. If anyone wants to know i will tell you. [11:46] There was maybe two kernel updates since the release of Ubuntu. Let me guess, is it the broken trackpad on laptops? [12:45] the touchpad and keyboard lovk=up/freeze upon start-up and reboots [12:45] lock=up [12:45] lock-up [13:22] I do have the line to put into grub to fix this problem/bug in the kernel. [18:16] starrats: ah, i've had that happen. was curious about what that was. [18:27] there's a 'bug in the kernel's grub line and it fixable by adding this after 'quiet splash' keeping the entire line as I show you in "...." [18:29] the line is this 'quiet splash i8042.numix=1 i8042.reset" do this in gedit or whatever 'editor' you have and afterwards run this in term sudo update-grub [18:30] of course start with this in term, sorry: sudo 'your editor' /boot/rub/menu.lst [18:31] that will take you to your editor and then find the line that ends with "quiet splash' and add that suffix to that line keeping all in "..." [18:33] sorry /boot/grub/menu.lst [18:57] jrgifford: did you get my notes ^^^^^^^^^^ [22:11] going to load up ubuntu on his VBox tonight [23:32] very quiet channel [23:33] Yep.
