[07:19] <ngaio> Hi everyone, as of the most recent dist-upgrade, my 4G modem is now identified as a CD/DVD and not a modem, which means no Internet :-/
[07:21] <ngaio> it's a Huawei USB stick
[07:22] <ngaio> I have no idea if it's a problem with udev or it's related to systemd
[07:35] <lordievader> Good morning.
[08:01] <jpds> ngaio: There used to be something known as usb_modeswitch.
[08:02] <jpds> ngaio: Ah, it's still around, just in the usb-modeswitch package.
[08:16] <ngaio> jpds, if I run that program is there a chance I can get my modem working again?
[08:16] <jpds> ngaio: Yes.
[08:17] <jpds> ngaio: It sounds like it's in storage mode.
[08:17] <jpds> ngaio: You need to flip it onto the other mode.
[08:17] <ngaio> jpds, oh very good... I'll give it a go, hopefully get Internet back, and then later today figure out how to report a bug
[08:18] <ngaio> thanks!
[08:20] <jpds> No idea if it'll work, but worth trying.
[12:07] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[12:40] <binni> How do I disable "Hi-DPI", that is everything on my screen is scaled up (text, widgets, etc). I'm running Ubuntu GNOME 15.04
[15:38] <BluesKaj> BBL
[16:10] <ngaio> jpds, are you around?
[16:11] <ngaio> I'm the one earlier who you advised to use usb_modeswitch to get my USB modem working
[16:11] <ngaio> it's now working
[16:14] <jpds> ngaio: Oh cool.
[16:16] <jpds> ngaio: I'd file a bug about it with your modem USD ID.
[16:16] <jpds> ngaio: So that it's done automatically for people.
[16:16] <ngaio> jpds, thanks again. There's no way I would have figured out that by myself!
[16:17] <ngaio> jpds, I'm running an apt-get update now, and if after dist-upgrade it still fails, I'll file a bug report for sure
[16:17] <ngaio> jpds, I assume it should be against udev
[16:17] <jpds> ngaio: File it under there for now.
[16:18] <ngaio> well I see there is another udev update since yesterday, so maybe it's already been fixed
[16:18] <ngaio> let's see
[20:55] <foormea> hi! since latest update this evening, my kubuntu 15.04 refuses to load sddm upon boot
[20:55] <foormea> but if i do this "sudo service sddm start" then it starts fine
[20:56] <foormea> i'm trying to look at xorg logs now... but i'm finding nothing wrong so far. sddm is present as startup script in rc5.d which is my current runlevel
[20:57] <MoonUnit`> happened to me earlier too, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sddm/+bug/1430817
[20:57] <foormea> ohhh, let me see this. thanks!
[20:58] <foormea> is the workaround to just remove plymouth?
[20:59] <MoonUnit`> no idea, i restored an image backup from yesterday then apt-mark hold the sddm updates.
[21:00] <foormea> mh. boot is too fast to even have a bootup logo anyway on my side... :D
[21:00] <foormea> i'll just... do nothing for now and see what happens in the coming days with that bug :D
[21:01] <foormea> alright then! thanks :)
