ianorlinyes rexus00:09
rexusthanks ianorlin. Actually I have both lubuntu 14.04 and 14.10 running on VM right now00:26
rexusMy intention is basically to get rid of NetworkManager and configure the network manually as I have always done in RHEL00:26
rexusbut the result for "service --status-all" command is totally different than in RHEL00:27
rexusand strangely, in 14.04, when I run "service --status-all" I did not see NetworkManager service running00:28
rexushowever, "service network-manager status" show that it is running.00:29
rexusnevermind, I think the best way is to use the "initctl list" command00:41
holsteinrexus: why not just run RHEL?02:20
rexusholstein, because I want to learn Ubuntu as well02:48
rexusdon't want to limit myself to just single distro02:48
holsteinwhy not just use the included ubuntu tools,then?02:49
rexusand lubuntu seems to be a good option so far because of its lightweight nature.02:49
holsteinwhats the goal? maybe there is a simpler way to get where you are going...02:49
rexusthe goal is basically just understanding how it works without the network manager02:50
rexusbut I just found out that there's this nmclient, I probably need to look at that one as well02:50
holsteintypically, it doenst02:51
holsteinthe desktop workflow of lubuntu, and most ubuntu's use the network manager by default02:51
holsteinthere are many other ways to do it, and quite a few other tools, but, i dont understand the goal of why you are wanting to use another tool. .what are you trying to implement that you cant with the network manager?02:52
rexuswell, this is basically based on the experience I had from the RHEL side. My Sysadmin in the company never configure NetworkManager. So, I figured that the same thing would apply as well in lubuntu02:53
holsteinsure, but, you are wanting to learn ubuntu/lubuntu, right? if thats the only goal, then use the include tool02:53
holsteinincluded*02:54
holsteinif you have something you are trying to do that you cant do in the network manager, then, we can likely find a nice way to address whatever that is..02:54
rexusalright..02:54
rexusthat make sense..02:55

rexussHi, if I just made a change on the network configuration, how do I restart the network using initctl command?06:23
geniiUse instead sudo service networking restart06:26
mouseoverGoogling suggest that getting wireless to work on Broadcom cards requires another package ( bcmwl-kernel-source ). But the page here seems dead? http://packages.ubuntu.com/utopic/bcmwl-kernel-source09:15
Unit193!b4309:20
ubottuHelp with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx09:20
Unit193Depends on the card.09:20
mouseoverHow do I know which packages are found on the Lubuntu  install CD?09:31
rexusshi all, I was reading this documentation: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SystemdForUpstartUsers . it was saying that Systemd runs with PID 1 as /sbin/init and Upstart runs with PID 1 as /sbin/upstart.11:20
rexussI did "ps -f -p 1" and I'm getting /sbin/init  so it means, my system which is lubuntu 14.10 is already using Systemd?11:21
Unit193If you read the rest, it says if you have systemd-sysv installed...11:22
Unit193ls -lh /sbin/init  or  dpkg -S /sbin/init11:22
rexussgosh, I forgot to read that Vivid Vervet part..11:23
Unit193:D11:24
rexussand yeah, /sbin/init in my system is a symlink to upstart11:24
Unit193Mhmm, don't think you can even install systemd-sysv.11:24
rexusswill lubuntu come out with the 15.04?11:25
Unit193Yep, already defaults to systemd too.11:25
rexussDo you think there's still a point in learning upstart then?11:26
rexussI mean, I have zero knowledge of upstart11:26
rexussI just knew that ubuntu is using upstart earlier and the rest of the other distro are using Systemd11:26
Unit193Depends on if you have any 14.04 servers, but otherwise likely not.  It is nice though.11:27
Unit193systemd is what Ubuntu uses in 15.04 and up.11:27
rexusswell, I'm using lubuntu for my VM11:27
rexussthe playground type of VM which will be reinstalled with a new one every time there's a new release11:28
rexussthen I guess I'll start with Systemd then..11:28
rexussIs it possible to rename a volume group and logical volume if it is used by the root partition?11:46
rexussnevermind, just tried it and it worked on the fly :)11:51
rexussbut, I just think of it again, I guess I need to change it in the fstab as well right?11:52
Unit193Check crypttab too.11:53
rexussI don't have /etc/crypttab11:54
rexussUnit193, it means I need to change my fstab manually right?11:55
rexussit seems to me that it is better if the fstab is using the UUID, so if I change it to something else, at least the UUID would still be the same. Is this correct?11:57
Unit193UUID would remain.11:58
