| ChmEarl | my Xen VM failed to boot when my initrd.img was 49 MB, I went most -> dep in initramfs.conf, the initrd.img now was 20MB and boot worked. The initrd.img still seems very large for a virtual machine | 03:03 |

| Bashing-om | lotuspsychje: " sysop@x1804mini:~$ " on the core install . | 05:28 |
| lotuspsychje | cool | 05:32 |
| lotuspsychje | Bashing-om: xubuntu or desktop? | 05:34 |
| Bashing-om | lotuspsychje: This time on a new SSD the core install went smooth as butter - no issues either with 18.04 in this version :) | 05:35 |
| lotuspsychje | df -h ? | 05:36 |
| Bashing-om | lotuspsychje: Presently have both standard ubuntu and xubuntu-core installed . | 05:36 |
| lotuspsychje | cool | 05:37 |

| lotuspsychje | madghost: see topic for daily iso's | 05:46 |
| lotuspsychje | madghost: 18.04 still in development, but already in a stable stage | 05:47 |
| lotuspsychje | madghost: and we always seek testers/buggers | 05:47 |
| alkisg | ChmEarl: yeah my 18.04 initramfs here is 160 MB uncompressed, so I imagine the system won't boot with less than 200 MB RAM anymore... | 05:49 |
| alkisg | The amdgpu firmware is to blame for a lot of this | 05:49 |
| madghost | nice ) cool, this is a good day :-) | 05:50 |

| thresh | is there a server/netinstall daily .iso I could fetch for 18.04? | 10:24 |
| thresh | ah there it is http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/daily/current/ | 10:24 |
| thresh | no i386 :-( | 10:25 |
| === shadeslayer_ is now known as shadeslayer | ||
| === marathone is now known as marathon | ||
| tomreyn | thresh: you probably want the ubuntu-server-live instead. but there is probably no i686 iso for this either (have not checked though) | 11:51 |
| tomreyn | http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/daily-live/current/ | 11:53 |
| tomreyn | right, just amd64, arm64 and ppc64el | 11:54 |
| thresh | I don't need a live cd no; that iso will go to a packer json file, to generate a golden image I'll use in my cloud | 11:54 |
| thresh | (I'll update it to GA version when it's out) | 11:54 |
| thresh | and yeah, seems like server i386 images are dropped like desktop ones in the previous versions | 11:55 |
| thresh | I don't mind really, less packages to build for me :) | 11:55 |
| tomreyn | thresh: daily-live is the new ubuntu server installer, the one you downloaded is the classic one and did not work for me when i tried it a few days ago. | 12:24 |
| tomreyn | it was inherently broken | 12:24 |
| tomreyn | the daily-live one, however, worked fine | 12:25 |
| thresh | oh | 12:25 |
| thresh | it worked here | 12:25 |
| tomreyn | okay, so i just hit a bad daily then i guess | 12:25 |
| tomreyn | still i'd recommend considering to use the new one, since it will replace the old one sooner or later | 12:26 |
| tomreyn | it is also a lot nicer to use for manual installations (i do not know about the automation POV) | 12:26 |
| thresh | yeah, good to know | 12:27 |
| thresh | I'm relying on a horrible mess of inputing chars char by char via VNC now to automate the install :-) | 12:27 |
| tomreyn | omg | 12:27 |
| tomreyn | you know about pressding, right? | 12:27 |
| tomreyn | *preseeding | 12:27 |
| thresh | sure, and that's what I use | 12:27 |
| tomreyn | why do you still need to input characters on vnc then? | 12:28 |
| thresh | when you boot up the iso on kvm you need to tell it where to fetch the preseed from | 12:28 |
| thresh | https://github.com/kaorimatz/packer-templates/blob/master/ubuntu-16.04-amd64.json | 12:29 |
| thresh | see boot_command | 12:29 |
| tomreyn | does kvm not support netbooting? | 12:29 |
| thresh | I know the proper solution is to use ipxe | 12:29 |
| tomreyn | that's what i'd think, yes | 12:29 |
| thresh | but I have no idea if it's implemented in kvm or in packer | 12:29 |
| tomreyn | i dont know packer, but i bet there's netbooting in kvm | 12:30 |
| thresh | I would think so too | 12:30 |
| tomreyn | https://serverfault.com/questions/850853/private-pxe-boot-network-with-kvm | 12:33 |
| tomreyn | the question is irrelevant, just read the answr | 12:33 |
| thresh | yup so it works with kvm | 12:34 |
| tomreyn | and is really easy to use :) | 12:35 |
| thresh | yes, I do have it set up for baremetal servers provisioning | 12:39 |

| akem | Is it Gnome 3.28 in Ubuntu 18.04? | 13:26 |
| lotuspsychje | yes | 13:26 |
| akem | Cool. | 13:26 |
| lotuspsychje | akem: and nautilus 3.26 | 13:27 |
| lotuspsychje | !info gnome-shell | 13:27 |
| ubottu | gnome-shell (source: gnome-shell): graphical shell for the GNOME desktop. In component main, is optional. Version 3.28.0-0ubuntu2 (bionic), package size 675 kB, installed size 7395 kB | 13:27 |
| akem | I hope they will fix the gnome-shell mem-leak bug quickly or it could really impact user experience for next LTS. | 13:31 |
| akem | In 3.28 they fixed a gnome-system-monitor bug, reversed infos on disk read/write, i still got it here on 17.10. | 13:32 |
| akem | Not that important this one, just wrong infos displayed. | 13:33 |
| akem | !info vlc | 13:34 |
| ubottu | vlc (source: vlc): multimedia player and streamer. In component universe, is optional. Version 3.0.1-3 (bionic), package size 31 kB, installed size 153 kB | 13:34 |
| akem | There is something wrong with package size on the bot? :) | 13:34 |
| lotuspsychje | akem: article i readed says they taking care of memory bug | 13:35 |
| lotuspsychje | akem: package size and install size is a different thing | 13:35 |
| lotuspsychje | akem: and with all the dependecys, even more | 13:37 |
| akem | lotuspsychje, yea i know it's like compressed when packaged, but only few Kb there? | 13:38 |
| akem | I use gnome-shell-extensions also, i didn't know about them, they are great for customisation, installed via the browser on the website / at first i tought it would something be based on the browsers' engine or something. | 13:41 |
| thresh | akem, https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/amd64/vlc/filelist | 13:43 |
| thresh | it's just a virtual package | 13:43 |
| thresh | well, poor wording | 13:43 |
| thresh | it's not virtual, but "common" stuff with depends on other packages | 13:44 |
| akem | Ha ok, it's just the description of some sort, nm. | 13:44 |

| akem | Do you know why Ubuntu switched from Unity to Gnome btw? because Unity seemed well functionnal and integrated in previous versions. | 21:16 |
| TJ- | akem: it was costing Canonical too much to maintain | 21:17 |
| akem | Ok, so because of costs. I didn't know it could be costly for them. | 21:19 |
| TJ- | akem: employing all the developers is expensive | 21:20 |
| akem | TJ-, i though it was a decentralized project with maybe just a little team on top guiding stuff, like some other projects. | 21:22 |
| TJ- | akem: no | 21:24 |

| tomreyn | would anyone feel like helping me understand how to make any of the 18.04 installers boot properly on a GPD pocket, and how to install ubuntu there so it'll boot? | 21:54 |
| tomreyn | with the extra difficulties of FDE and internet access thorugh usb<->ethernet device | 21:56 |
| tomreyn | i got 18.04 running there (upgraded from a respun installer found on the internet) but not encrypted, and i can't tell which modifications were made. | 21:57 |
| tomreyn | any of the default 18.04 installers just run into a black screen when leaving single user mode, i think | 21:58 |
| tomreyn | nomodeset does not help, vga=791 does not help | 21:59 |
| tomreyn | i guess i could debootstrap it from a recovery iso or something | 22:01 |
| marquezini | how can i download prerelease | 22:19 |
| marquezini | any mirror of daily build? | 22:22 |
| nacc | marquezini: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/HEADER.html | 22:22 |
| marquezini | nacc, tk | 22:23 |
| marquezini | ask a question for me | 22:23 |
| marquezini | if i update this daily build after the lts is released i get the latest system without the bug that come in pre-release versions? | 22:24 |
| nacc | marquezini: 'the bug'? | 22:24 |
| marquezini | bugs | 22:24 |
| nacc | marquezini: well, presuming those bugs are fixed, sure | 22:24 |
| marquezini | not "the bug" "bugs" | 22:24 |
| marquezini | ok | 22:25 |
| marquezini | ok | 22:25 |
| nacc | marquezini: obviously not all bugs are fixed | 22:25 |
| marquezini | working well, fine for me | 22:25 |
| tomreyn | actually the (new) server live-installer starts fine on the gpd | 22:30 |
| tomreyn | it doesn't detect existing partitons, though | 22:30 |
| akem | Sometimes on 17.10 when i reboot i got my login screen upside down, i'm using the NVidia drivers, i wonder if i should report it. | 23:21 |
| akem | I rebooted and my screen is back normal without changing anything. | 23:22 |
| nacc | akem: 17.10 is in #ubuntu | 23:22 |
| akem | Oh right sorry. | 23:23 |
