[13:31] <freeroute> hi, I'm trying to run the live 14.04 from USB stick on a computer with BIOS version P4i65G P1.10 (Celeron 2.4GHz). MD5 sum checked out and afterwards I ran the following command from another machine - 'dcfldd if=lubuntu-14.04-desktop-i386.iso of=/dev/sdb'. That was successful as well, however when I try to boot from the USB on the target machine it says "isolinux.bin missing or corrupt".
[13:31] <freeroute> I also have a USB stick with SystemRescueCD, it however works.
[13:35] <leszek> freeroute:  did you check if the iso is correct? md5sum check of the iso
[13:35] <leszek> ah sry you checked md5sum hmm...
[13:36] <freeroute> leszek:
[13:36] <freeroute> oops, yes
[13:36] <leszek> "dcfldd if= ... " you mean dd right ?
[13:36] <freeroute> leszek: it works on the same principle, but I tried dd as well
[13:36] <freeroute> dcfldd is dd with some nice features (is used most of the time in forensics)
[13:36] <leszek> hmm... and the stick is big enough for the ISO ?
[13:37] <freeroute> 8gb
[13:39] <freeroute> leszek: I'm trying to think of a way to install lubuntu 14.04. Is installing ubuntu-netinst and then installing lubuntu-desktop an idea?
[13:40] <leszek> freeroute: might be an idea. But before that. What you always could try is formatting the usb stick with fat32 and then try unetbootin with the lubuntu iso and see if that'll work out
[13:40] <freeroute> leszek: tried that, "Boot error"
[13:41] <freeroute> also tried different USB sticks
[13:41] <freeroute> was in #ubuntu before coming here
[13:41] <leszek> hmm... thats strange
[13:41] <leszek> I don't think the iso is broken as booted fine here
[13:42] <leszek> but you didn't choose the default first boot entry after unetbootin the iso on the stick ? Because that default entry never worked for me :P
[13:42] <freeroute> what do you mean? It asked to to install onto /dev/sdb1 (and also have it mounted)
[13:43] <leszek> I meant the boot menu when you try booting from the stick it should give you a menu or does even this not work for you ?
[13:43] <freeroute> ah that, no that doesn't even work :p
[13:43] <freeroute> it does with SystemRescueCD though
[13:44] <leszek> hmm... ok thats very strange then
[13:44] <freeroute> it's a very old PC though
[13:44] <leszek> as long as you can get ubuntu-netinst up and running on your system thats not that big of a deal as you can easily install lubuntu-desktop via the internet then
[13:45] <leszek> still its a bit odd
[13:45] <freeroute> could be a crappy BIOS perhaps
[14:26] <annabel_> tried flashing your bios freeroute?
[14:26] <annabel_> Or setting it to default
[16:13] <freeroute> annabel_: I'm just going to buy another PC first probably.


[02:42] <LinDol> hi all
[06:21] <mgedmin> oooh, this now exists: http://packages.ubuntu.com/yakkety/chrome-gnome-shell
[06:27] <jbicha> mgedmin: yes, it's the "connector", you'll still need to install the extension from the Chrome Store
[13:15] <LinDol> hi all
[13:41] <dr4c4n> hi LinDol
[13:42] <LinDol> haha thank you :) how are you today
[13:43] <dr4c4n> I'm doing alright, I have to mark a bunch of assignments though. I've been working on trying to get ubuntu gnome 16.04 on my laptop which is an asus zenbook pro ux501vw and it just doesn't seem to want to wrok
[13:43] <dr4c4n> there are several issues that come up with it when I'm doing the installation
[13:44] <dr4c4n> even trying to use an older version, and then upgrading doesn't seem to work
[13:48] <LinDol> oh, it was just occurred in Ubuntu GNOME?
[13:49] <LinDol> any other distribution doesn't have issue on your zenbook?


[10:33] <lotuspsychje> new 20.04 yaru theme just got in https://imgur.com/a/mzgcoWY
[22:28] <Miles8of9> if you install focal fossa and it doesn't crash, can you follow development by downloading updates using apt or it's better to reformat and reinstall each time?
[22:29] <Bashing-om> Miles8of9: Never had an issue with continued updates to final release.
[22:53] <Miles8of9> are you using focal fossa? how it's running? any problem?
[23:02] <Bashing-om> Miles8of9: I have ubuntu 20.04 in my test bed - no issues at all. My daily is 18.04.
[23:02] <Miles8of9> which kernel is 20.04 using at moment?
[23:03] <Bashing-om> !info linux-image-generic focal
[23:04] <Bashing-om> Miles8of9: See too: https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Ubuntu-20.04-Linux-5.4-Likely
[23:05] <Miles8of9> ok thankyou
[23:05] <Bashing-om> Miles8of9: If you have certified hardware: https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Ubuntu-20.04-Certified-OEM-Exp
[23:06] <Miles8of9> i need support for radeon rx 5600 xt.. probably i'll need to update kernel to 5.5... and various libs
[23:06] <Bashing-om> Miles8of9: ^^ 5.6 kernel :)
[23:06] <Miles8of9> maybe....
[23:07] <Bashing-om> Miles8of9: I saw that AMD has released updated dtivers for that card.
[23:07] <Bashing-om> drivers*
[23:09] <Miles8of9> no drivers for 5600 at moment.. https://www.amd.com/en/support/graphics/amd-radeon-5600-series/amd-radeon-rx-5600-series/amd-radeon-rx-5600-xt
[23:10] <oerheks> check out bios update? https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=RX-5600-XT-New-SMC-Micro
[23:13] <Bashing-om> Miles8of9: ^^ also : https://phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=RX-5600-XT-New-SMC-Micro >> " with that updated performance BIOS will now be working out correctly."
[23:15] <Miles8of9> can linux flash the bios of a video card...? i thought it was a windows-only feature
[23:18] <oerheks> i would check the vendor website
[23:19] <oerheks> there is fwupdate, not sure it covers your GPU too
[23:20] <Miles8of9> looks like a dangerous procedure... perhaps better install windows for a day and perform update from there
[23:27] <oerheks> sure, one does not need to register the copy, to perform updates.


[01:25] <DarkwingDuck> Yay! I have a working computer again.
[02:36] <Daskreech> DarkwingDuck: Lets Get Dangerous!
[02:49] <apachelogger> that sounds scary
[03:46] <DarkwingDuck> Daskreech: :D
[03:47] <Daskreech> ;-)
[04:53] <ScottK> It would be highly useful is someone could try natty -> oneiric upgrades with a setup kontact and then try to capture the pain points and document workarounds so we can have data for a decent release note on the topic.
[07:55] <bambee> morning
[08:04] <bambee> yofel_: do you have time to push something for me ?
[09:44] <Saviq> fregl: hi, thanks for fixing a11y in our QMenus :) we've got another issue, though - when Accessible.name is bound, for some reason QDeclarativeAccessibleAttached::setName() is never reached, and so QAccessible::updateAccessibility is never called, resulting in outdated a11y on those objects
[09:45] <Saviq> any pointers on what might be happening? I can hack up a testcase if you need
[09:45] <fregl> Saviq: I could not reproduce the example that Florian sent me. can you write a simple qml file that shows the problem?
[09:46] <Saviq> fregl: yup, will do
[09:46] <fregl> thanks
[09:47] <fregl> Saviq: Florian sent me this one: but it works for me - is it broken for you? http://paste.kde.org/128233/
[09:55] <Saviq> fregl: yeah, I can't find "I should have that name" anywhere in accerciser
[09:58] <Saviq> fregl: if I add a `testVariable: "old name"` for the top-level Item, that's what I get in accerciser, not "I should have that name"
[09:59] <fregl> Saviq: so the example is broken for you? it seemed to work here every time. are you sure you have all patches from that 4.7-a11y branch then?
[10:02] <Saviq> fregl: yeah, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/698417/ seems to show it a bit better for me - the label changes to "new name", but the accessible name remains at "old name"
[10:02] <Saviq> and whether we have all the patches... well, that's a good question
[10:04] <fregl> Saviq: I just checked again - it works here, the name changes from old name to I should... I can see it happening in accerciser
[10:04] <Saviq> fregl: ok, I'll try and dig in the patches
[10:04] <fregl> Saviq: check that you have 205f4abb9b980854e93ed58f4c2f245f63fe8116 maybe?
[10:05] <fregl> Saviq: I remeber fixing this for you guys some time ago, maybe you just lost the patch?
[10:07] <Saviq> fregl: yeah looks like it http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/oneiric/qt4-x11/oneiric/view/head:/debian/patches/a11y_qt_and_qml_backport.diff#L347
[10:07] <Saviq> unless it's somewhere else
[10:08] <Saviq> fregl: ok, now I see our issues, I think I'll manage, thanks again
[10:37] <fregl> Saviq: thanks for taking care of this stuff :)
[10:38] <Saviq> fregl: yeah qt4-x11 was just rolled 3hrs ago or so... not sure we're going to get that into finale :/
[10:39] <Saviq> hopefully yes
[10:56] <ScottK> It will get into final.
[10:56] <ScottK> kdepim/pimlibs/pim-runtime updated to yesterday's git 4.7, BTW.
[12:34] <txwikinger> Well.. the upgrade on my laptop was better
[12:34] <txwikinger> However, interestingly after the upgrade, the login went three or four times back to the login screen, until it properly logged in
[13:15] <jussi> LOL, was trying to do alt+f2, and it wasnt working, couldnt work out what was wrong, so went to report a bug and figured out my external keyboard wasnt plugged in.... *blush*
[13:55] <Quintasan_> jussi: lol
[13:55] <jussi> Quintasan_: it was pretty epic fail :P
[13:55] <Quintasan> Ehh, it's time to get maths done :s
[14:00] <bambee> jussi: don't use your computer when you're drunk :P
[14:06] <jussi> bambee: I am at work...
[14:06] <ScottK> How does that relate?
[14:09] <bambee> jussi: I have no doubt about that, I was kidding... :)
[14:09] <shadeslayer> bambee: is http://paste.kde.org/128047/ when you run KDE Trunk?
[14:10] <bambee> shadeslayer: when I run kde 4.7.1 on ARM
[14:11] <shadeslayer> Object::disconnect: No such slot QObject::dataUpdated(QString,Plasma::DataEngine::Data) in /build/buildd/project-neon-kdelibs-2+git20110924+r92127/plasma/datacontainer.cpp:276
[14:11] <shadeslayer> i get that
[14:13] <shadeslayer> uhm, dataUpdate is actually a signal 0.o
[14:15] <bambee> the strange message being "link XMLID_34_ hasn't been detected!"
[14:15] <bambee> QPainter::begin: Paint device returned engine == 0, type: 2
[14:15] <bambee> QPainter::setCompositionMode: Painter not active
[14:15] <bambee> QPainter::end: Painter not active, aborted
[17:29] <ScottK> apachelogger (or someone else with KDE git access) would you please commit the patch I just pushed to bzr for kdeutils to KDE in both trunk and 4.7 branches.
[17:33] <yofel> did someone file an FFe for rekonq?
[17:33] <ScottK> Not that I've seen.
[17:33] <yofel> filing
[17:33] <yofel> I won't have time to update the package though
[17:57] <shadeslayer> yofel: are you sure we want to have a beta release browser in our final release?
[18:05] <ScottK> Someone was claiming it was less crashy.
[18:05] <ScottK> Less crashy is a good thing.
[18:12] <yofel> shadeslayer: it is less crashy than 0.7.0 - At least it actually survived 2 whole days without a crash so far
[18:13] <shadeslayer> :D
[18:13] <yofel> for details ask someone else though, I'm no rekonq expert
[18:13]  * shadeslayer is fix0ring Telepathy Qt4 right now
[18:14] <ScottK> yofel: Do you have commit access in KDE git?
[18:14] <yofel> I do
[18:14]  * yofel looks at the patch
[18:14] <ScottK> Thanks.
[18:16] <ScottK> It could also be applied to the 4.6 branch too.
[18:32] <yofel> ok, the patch does fix the crash at least
[18:39] <ScottK> Yup.
[18:49] <bambee> ScottK: do you have time to upload kde-workspace-4.7.1-0ubuntu4 ?
[18:49] <ScottK> Not until maybe late tonight.
[18:50] <bambee> onp
[18:50] <bambee> np *
[19:35] <yofel> apachelogger, bulldog98_, ScottK: check if something's missing on bug 861631
[21:38] <claydoh> ScottK: re: kontact upgrade pains: I am collecting some already, and iirc if anyone has tried kmail2, and returned to kmail1, some of those old pre-release kmail2 akonadi resources just add to the it :(
[21:39] <claydoh> I am considering proposing most users start fresh and import the old mails

[23:19] <Riddell> user distirbed by the website http://paste.kde.org/128623/
[23:20]  * ryanakca gasps
[23:21] <ryanakca> Mamarok: Have another 2.4.3 screenshot handy, that one you suggested I use isn't exactly fitting for our website?
[23:29] <DarkwingDuck> The image died.
[23:30] <DarkwingDuck> Oh wait, it's there.
[23:34] <Riddell> can't be hard to take one yourself?
[23:36] <JontheEchidna> aha, I know why samba install from dolphin doesn't work, the patch was dropped.
[23:36] <JontheEchidna> rbelem: ^
[23:37] <DarkwingDuck> Riddell: Yeah, I'll need to get some music to my local machine and then fire it up, load up the music so it looks correct.
[23:42] <ScottK> Riddell: Would you please review / accept my kdeutils upload in the unapproved queue?
[23:47] <DarkwingDuck> Holy wow... tomorrow is the translations deadline.
