shay_shayearlier today i booted a Mint KDE live-usb, and was testing it for a few hours. afterwards, when tried to reboot back into ubuntu mate, get this screen, a grey folder with a question mark: http://trcdatarecovery.com/files/large/bade4172a6d6d61 so i booted the Mint KDE usb again, chrooted to my system, reinstalled grub because. no matter what I did had no effect until I decided to convert my ESP to a HFS+10:26
shay_shayformatted one, as described here: http://glandium.org/blog/?p=2830 .... this works. however, after the kernel and initrd are loaded, something else hangs. so i reboot and edit the grub cmd line and remove "quiet splash" and i attempt to boot and see what it hangs on. problem is it doesnt tell me, it just tells me the last thing which was successful. not really sure where to begin in troubleshooting this, i10:26
shay_shaywas thinking of taking the brute force method of just reinstalling all my packages, if there is some data corruption then that should work. or is there a way to narrow down the cause? some trick or tool i dont know about?10:26
ikoniawhat does that symbol actually show on the mac10:29
shay_shayit means boot files are missing10:29
shay_shaylike no operating system error10:30
k1lwell, just booting a live system should not touch the grub at all10:30
shay_shaybut i fixed that... but its weird that it suddenly stopped seeing my fat32 esp10:30
shay_shaymaybe if i had reformatted it fat32 it would have worked again too10:31
shay_shaybut hfs+ is a marginally better file system anyways so i figured I would upgrade while I was already  there10:31
ikoniaso would that not suggest refit/grub is the issue10:35
ikoniawhy would you reinstall "all" packages ?10:35
shay_shayRefit?10:36
ikoniawhatever its called these days10:36
ikoniaI know it changed names10:36
=== Guest45053 is now known as jpds
shay_shayYeah but I don't have that10:37
shay_shayIts already loading initramfs and kernel, so grub is out of the picture already10:38
shay_shayhttps://www.dropbox.com/s/4pdqy0kecurh5qj/IMG_20140914_212120.jpg?dl=010:38
shay_shayThis is where it stops10:39
ikoniait can't be out of the picture10:42
TJ-shay_shay: That's well into the Upstart init sequence; you've got an Upstart job hanging. Drop "quiet splash " and add "debug --verbose --debug" to the end of the kernel command-line in GRUB, the try again.10:43
shay_shayOK Ty TJ-10:44
ikoniaif you're getting that error screen that means "nothing to boot" that's before it 's loaded the kernel10:45
shay_shayikonia: I already fixed that10:46
shay_shayThat was in my original story but I guess it was TL;DR10:46
ikoniaoh10:46
shay_shayAlso it was a really big paragraph which IRC was not kind to10:47
BluesKajHiyas all10:48
TJ-shay_shay: I'm going to guess it's stuckin the "/ec/init/network-interface.conf" job, which displays the "Starting configure network device" .... how long have you waited for it to continue - it can take several minutes if the interfaces aren't found10:48
TJ-shay_shay: You can test that by temporarily disabling the auto-start of that job with "echo manual >/etc/init/network-interface.override" - you might need to boot with "rw init=/bin/bash" in order to add that file, of course10:49
shay_shayI see. I don't recall how long I waited but you've given me enough to troubleshoot it I think. I should sleep first though its 4: am here10:52
shay_shayThanks a bunch TJ-. Also ikonia :)10:52

vincenzomlHi there, I am running 14.10 (beta). Is it normal that my calendar is missing from the indicators? Also, I can't see chrome and dropbox there, is there anything I should do on my side or just wait for upgrades?11:30
vincenzomlOk, the clock is there, I just have to change the setting to show date as usual. How could I not see it, that's a mistery. What about the old "notification area" programs? How can I see them again?11:34
vincenzomlFor example I installed the package nautilus-dropbox but I can't see dropbox's icon11:47
davidghi all. I am using ubuntu 14.10 and i have problems with my wifi especially when speaking with skype. Suddenly my wifi disconnects and in order that the wifi will work i have to reboot my machine. In which forum can i report this bug and which information do i have to include ?12:29
BluesKajdavidg, how is your wifi when skype is not being used ?12:38
davidgBluesKaj: it works most of the time. I had just once a problem12:39
davidgwhen using skype i get disconnected after 4-5 minutes12:39
davidgi already disabled the upnp in the router section12:39
BluesKajdavidg, why did you disable upnp, did someone advise you to do so?12:40
davidgBluesKaj: This is what i read in the askubuntu threads12:41
BluesKajdavidg, and did it make a difference ?12:42
davidgno12:42
BluesKajdavidg, which skype are you using, a clientplugin for empathy or telepathy etc?12:45
davidgi am using the skype 4.312:46
davidgwithout the plugin12:46
davidgjust the client12:46
BluesKajI recall using static skype and it seemed to be the most stable ...is it still available?12:47
davidgi don't know what this is12:48
davidgi will have to check12:48
davidgdo you have a link to it?12:48
davidgI think that skype 4.3 is really static :-)12:49
BluesKajdavidg, skype is iffy at the best of times on linux and I wish could help more, but I haven't used it in many yrs12:58
BluesKajmaybe someone else can help with this issue13:01
davidgi understand13:05
davidgmy mother in law has skype, so it is a must for me :-)13:06
BluesKajhaven't considered googletalk ? It's supposed to be much better.more stable on all platforms etc13:08
davidg i will try. my problem is that i will have to convince many friends to go over to google talk.  Many of them are not familiar with software. They just know to double click on skype and speak. If i will have to convince them to move to skype it won't make me especially popular13:09
BluesKajerr googlehangouts rather...guess I'm behind the curve on this stuff13:10
davidgi mean to move to google talk13:10
davidgi will try13:10
