[00:07] <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.
[00:41] <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.
[00:44] <Unit193> No, *my* netbook seems to do a decent job at it.  As far as I know it usually saves it.
[00:47] <Unit193> http://askubuntu.com/questions/227686/xubuntu-12-10-doesnt-save-screen-brightness-on-reboot could try that though.
[01:04] <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.
[01:08] <esph> Though I'd guess there might be a problem if the brightness is zero somehow when it reboots...
[10:46] <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?
[11:30] <ducasse> xub: what version did you upgrade from/to?
[11:42] <xub> ducasse: 14.04
[11:43] <ducasse> xub: to what version?
[11:44] <xub> ducasse: 15.04
[11:44] <ducasse> xub: did you upgrade to 14.10 first?
[11:44] <xub> ducasse: nope
[11:45] <ducasse> xub: since 15.04 isn't an LTS version, the recommended path is to go 14.04 -> 14.10 -> 15.04
[11:46] <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".
[11:47] <xub> ducasse: i have already done that and it gives me a splash screen that remains freeze
[11:48] <ducasse> xub: OK, can you switch to a virtual console with ctrl-alt-F2?
[11:53] <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?
[11:55] <xub> ducasse: the command just gives me a black screen
[11:55] <xub> no console
[11:56] <ducasse> xub: what about the other F-keys? no consoles there either?
[11:58] <xub> ducasse: the same with other F-keys, no result
[11:58] <xub> ducasse: shoule i use a live cd?
[11:58] <xub> *should
[11:59] <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...
[12:00] <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.
[12:01] <ducasse> xub: but 15.10 comes tomorrow, so you might as well get a nighly build and install that :)
[12:02] <xub> ok ducasse , it's not so far tommorow so i will be patient, thanks again
[16:14] <max12345> hey guys is there a good calendar program I can install?
[16:15] <max12345> where I can put in dates and a schedule and stuff?
[17:25] <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
[19:47] <ipoxfred> i uninstalled chromium, but the icon is still on the menu. How di I get rid of it?
