| JoeLlama | so like... does lubuntu handle RAID 6 okay? I run mdadm to initialize all five drives and the lights are flashing and slowly some stop and then it hangs at like 4.3% or 19.5% for software raid | 00:37 |
|---|---|---|
| * JoeLlama waits forever for a response but doesn't think this situation is common... | 00:41 | |
| JoeLlama | maybe switch to the full ubuntu version... i dunno at this point I have put hours into this and have built the system twice now | 00:41 |
| guiverc | JoeLlama, you're using base Ubuntu features so your *unstated* Lubuntu release should be identical to any Ubuntu flavor, or Ubuntu Desktop itself (Lubuntu has the desktop & desktop apps changed, and uses a different installer, but still Ubuntu install scripts) | 00:48 |
| guiverc | (we do use a later encryption install; ie. full disk encryption like Ubuntu Server as I understand it, install using ubiquity will result in an unencrypted /boot as those use an 'older' install script - so it's not identical for all releases) | 00:52 |
| JoeLlama | um... ok guiverc | 00:53 |
| JoeLlama | so like why once I started mdadm why would it just hang like that? | 00:54 |
| JoeLlama | also it wouldn't shutdown I had to hold the power button | 00:54 |
| JoeLlama | it's very frustrating | 00:54 |
| JoeLlama | this is the second time I've set everything up again... | 00:54 |
| JoeLlama | first time it made it to 19.5% this time 4.3% and then stopped initializing or what ever | 00:55 |
| JoeLlama | guiverc... | 00:56 |
| JoeLlama | guiverc :( | 00:57 |
| JoeLlama | *sigh* it's okay I understand... this just isn't going to work I suspect | 00:57 |
| JoeLlama | running on a Dell PowerEdge R720 | 00:58 |
| JoeLlama | just gunna go hardware raid | 01:01 |
| * guiverc is getting ready to go out, only occasionally/briefly near box (why marked away)... but you didn't provide release.. later releases of calamares are 'stronger' than earlier ones, but if it's commands you're executing from terminal - it's base Ubuntu code thus Lubuntu isn't part of the picture (in my opinion & as expressed) | 01:03 | |
| JoeLlama | ok thanks :) | 01:03 |
| * guiverc is confused by power button? only 1 unsupported release had SysRq keys disabled which are FAR SAFER for any GNU/Linux | 01:04 | |
| arraybolt3[m] | JoeLlama: Can you run badblocks on all of your drives that you intend to use for your RAID? This kinda sounds like it may be disk failure to me. | 02:02 |
| arraybolt3[m] | (This is especially likely if your drives are used.) | 02:03 |
| khalos | Hi can anyone tell me how to move windows from desktop 1 to desktop 2? I absolutely hate this feature | 15:50 |
| arraybolt3[m] | khalos: Try right-clicking on a window's button in the panel and see if it gives you an option to do that. | 15:50 |
| arraybolt3[m] | khalos: I think it will let you choose the desktop to move it to, or make it be shown on all desktops. | 15:51 |
| khalos | Thanks that worked. How did they end up in different desktops in the first place and are there hotkeys for this? | 15:53 |
| arraybolt3[m] | khalos: I do not know of hotkeys for this, but if there are some, it may tell you in the menu. Also you can right-click on the window titlebar and do the same thing IIRC. | 15:55 |
| arraybolt3[m] | As for how they ended up in different desktops, I dunno. Maybe you accidentally switched desktops and then launched an app? The scroll wheel on your mouse or two-finger scrolling on your touchpad can sometimes cause you to switch desktops on accident. | 15:56 |
| khalos | thanks | 16:03 |
