| esph | Unit193: there's stuff about controlling the brightness based on idle time, but nothing about saving brightness with the session for the next startup. | 00:07 |
|---|---|---|
| esph | Unit193: also, I wasn't able to find any package that seemed to contain "Netbook", if you were suggesting that as a way to save brightness settings. | 00:41 |
| Unit193 | No, *my* netbook seems to do a decent job at it. As far as I know it usually saves it. | 00:44 |
| Unit193 | http://askubuntu.com/questions/227686/xubuntu-12-10-doesnt-save-screen-brightness-on-reboot could try that though. | 00:47 |
| esph | Unit193: Hmm, this laptop has the backlight settings in a different directory (There is both /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness and /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/actual_brightness). Maybe that's why it doesn't work automatically? Anyway, that script looks like it should work, thanks. | 01:04 |
| esph | Though I'd guess there might be a problem if the brightness is zero somehow when it reboots... | 01:08 |

| xub | hi, after upgrading xubuntu, i can't boot and it gives me this message: starting version 219 target filesystem doesn't have requested /sbin/init. //bin/sh: 0 : can't open splash | 10:46 |
| xub | any help what could i do? | 10:46 |
| ducasse | xub: what version did you upgrade from/to? | 11:30 |
| xub | ducasse: 14.04 | 11:42 |
| ducasse | xub: to what version? | 11:43 |
| xub | ducasse: 15.04 | 11:44 |
| ducasse | xub: did you upgrade to 14.10 first? | 11:44 |
| xub | ducasse: nope | 11:44 |
| ducasse | xub: since 15.04 isn't an LTS version, the recommended path is to go 14.04 -> 14.10 -> 15.04 | 11:45 |
| ducasse | xub: you are probably having problems with the switch to systemd. Try to reboot while holding left shift, that should give you a grub menu. Choose "advanced", and select a boot entry that contains the words "with upstart". | 11:46 |
| xub | ducasse: i have already done that and it gives me a splash screen that remains freeze | 11:47 |
| ducasse | xub: OK, can you switch to a virtual console with ctrl-alt-F2? | 11:48 |
| === azeam_afk is now known as azeam | ||
| xub | ducasse: you mean to press ctrl-alt-F2 while i'm to splash screen? | 11:53 |
| ducasse | xub: while on the splash screen, yes. can you switch to a console, or is the whole machine frozen? | 11:53 |
| xub | ducasse: the command just gives me a black screen | 11:55 |
| xub | no console | 11:55 |
| ducasse | xub: what about the other F-keys? no consoles there either? | 11:56 |
| xub | ducasse: the same with other F-keys, no result | 11:58 |
| xub | ducasse: shoule i use a live cd? | 11:58 |
| xub | *should | 11:58 |
| ducasse | xub: you can, and then mount the root file system. try to chroot into it, and clean up. but it's probably necessary to backup, reinstall and restore... | 11:59 |
| xub | ducasse: ok, thanks | 12:00 |
| ducasse | xub: you haven't run the upgrade scripts that take care of the transition from sysv to systemd, so it looks like init is broken. | 12:00 |
| ducasse | xub: but 15.10 comes tomorrow, so you might as well get a nighly build and install that :) | 12:01 |
| xub | ok ducasse , it's not so far tommorow so i will be patient, thanks again | 12:02 |
| max12345 | hey guys is there a good calendar program I can install? | 16:14 |
| max12345 | where I can put in dates and a schedule and stuff? | 16:15 |
| GridCube | max12345: the default Orage application is pretty good, a good more note-taking, hashtag-adding, whatever you want app could be rednotebook, although you probably will want something more like Sunrise | 17:25 |
