[10:34] <JediMaster> hi guys, I've just done an apt-get upgrade, which upgraded libgcc1, which in turn added gcc-4.9-base and now apt-get is broken with: apt-get: error while loading shared libraries: libgcc_s.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[10:35] <JediMaster> I can see: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcc_s.so.1 on my 13.10 boxes but on this 14.04 install it does n't exist
[10:37] <JediMaster> I still have the package in /var/cache/apt/archives but dpkg -i'ing the package hasn't fixed it, it does appear to be missing the file from the archive (which is also only 1kb in size, and installs successfully)
[10:39] <JediMaster> http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/amd64/libgcc1/filelist shows that it should be in the package
[10:45] <JediMaster> it appears the package may have been pulled
[10:45] <JediMaster> as the packages.ubuntu.com site shows version 4.8.2 and not 4.9
[10:46] <JediMaster> saying that, I've reinstalled the 4.8.2 version that the packages site shows, doing an apt-get update/upgrade brings back 4.9
[10:46] <JediMaster> which then breaks it all again
[10:57] <JediMaster> ok, downgrading to libgcc1 4.8.2 fixes the issue, but as soon as I apt-get update/upgrade again 4.9 is brought in and the package is completely broken, breaking apt again (amongst other things)
[11:00] <Nothing_Much> Hey guys, I'm having a problem with my online accounts

[11:09] <JediMaster> I was testing some upgrade scripts, so was apt-get update/upgrading a lot, and the package suddenly popped up, so must have been one of the first to install it, heh

[12:06] <Nothing_Much> I need some help with the online accounts settings not showing up on Ubuntu 14.04 Unity
[12:22] <Nothing_Much> Anyone?
[12:22] <Nothing_Much> I need some help with the online accounts settings not showing up on Ubuntu 14.04 Unity
[12:26] <eyfour> Nothing_Much: What, exactly, is "not showing up"? The panel icon?
[12:27] <Nothing_Much> eyfour: I hit "Online Accounts" on the top right corner menu and the Settings manager shows up with nothing else
[12:27] <Nothing_Much> happening
[12:27] <Nothing_Much> It just shows the Settings manager
[12:27] <Nothing_Much> Whenever I boot up my computer it complains about not seeing online accounts
[12:29] <eyfour> Nothing_Much: That happens on my system as well. It could be a work-in-progress bug, but I didn't know the problem was still there.
[12:30] <eyfour> Nothing_Much: I rarely use Online Accounts anyway, so I am afraid I cannot be of much help.
[12:30] <Nothing_Much> eyfour: Ah okay, I thought I was the only one. :)
[12:30] <Nothing_Much> Yeah the Online Accounts needs some refinements
[12:30] <Nothing_Much> I only started using them just recently
[12:31] <Daekdroom> eyfour, Nothing_Much Probably a work-in-progress bug from the transition to unity-control-panel.
[12:31] <Nothing_Much> Ohh, from the Gnome control panel?
[12:31] <Daekdroom> Yeah. It was forked.

[13:45] <BluesKaj> Howdy all
[13:46] <Nothing_Much> So how do I disable the desktop search using CTRL?

[14:14] <hitsujiTMO> hmm, according to top vmware workstation is using 140% of my cpu .... thats nice i guess
[14:14] <hitsujiTMO> sorry, wrong channel
[14:17] <Nothing_Much> np hitsujiTMO
[14:19] <sandGorgon> ok - the big question needs to be asked : is 14.04 getting systemd ?
[14:21] <Pici> nope
[14:21] <sandGorgon> hmm.. that's a bummer, now will need to wait to 14.10 to upgrade
[14:28] <Nothing_Much> sandGorgon: It might actually
[14:28] <Nothing_Much> Unless you already saw the article
[14:28] <sandGorgon> Nothing_Much, yup
[14:28] <Daekdroom> I think it's too late for them to switch to systemd for 14.04
[14:28] <Nothing_Much> Alright then
[14:29] <sandGorgon> Nothing_Much, but it seems 14.04 remains on upstart . Hoping that the ubuntu-gnome guys switch over for 14.04 then (I'm still on 12.04)
[14:29] <Nothing_Much> Yeah probably
[14:29] <Nothing_Much> Ah
[14:29] <Nothing_Much> So how do I disable the desktop search using CTRL?
[14:31] <Nothing_Much> Anybody?
[14:41] <Nothing_Much> Goddammit
[14:41] <Nothing_Much> Can someone explain to me why CTRL sends Team Fortress 2 back to the desktop?
[14:41] <Nothing_Much> Ubuntu Unity 14.04
[14:43] <nvrpunk> hmm
[14:43] <nvrpunk> I dont play games so no clue
[14:43] <nvrpunk> but i think it uses Mir
[14:43] <nvrpunk> ?
[14:43] <nvrpunk> and I have no transparency in my gnome-terminal
[14:44] <nvrpunk> have you tried changing settings in Gconf?
[14:44] <Nothing_Much> nvrpunk: I'm not on Mir currently
[14:44] <Nothing_Much> Gconf?
[14:44] <Nothing_Much> Hang on a sec
[14:44] <nvrpunk> gconf-editor
[14:44] <nvrpunk> etc
[14:46] <nvrpunk> also check keyboard under sytem settings and the shortcut tab
[14:46] <nvrpunk> it may be there as well
[14:46] <nvrpunk> I used Ubuntu-Gnome unfortunately
[14:46] <nvrpunk> use*
[14:50] <Nothing_Much> nvrpunk: Doesn't look like there's a shortcut in the keyboard settings..
[14:55] <genii> Something odd... At lightdm screen I often switch to consoles with ctrl-alt-F# keys and login, etc. My hostname is set to default of "ubuntu" .. today I see that on tty1,tty3,tty4 like: Ubuntu Trusty Tahr (development branch) ubuntu tty1 ...but on tty2, tty5, tty6 I see: Ubuntu Trusty Tahr (development branch) dhcppc5 tty2 ... logging in then shows regular hostname at prompt though. Where is this "dhcppc5" coming from?
[14:55] <Nothing_Much> Oh my god
[14:56] <Nothing_Much> Apparently Ctrl + W is a close focused window function!!
[14:56] <Nothing_Much> WTF
[18:10] <pietro10> Hi. GTK+ programs running in KDE do not use the proper kerning, letter spacing, etc. as evidenced by other KDE programs. Oddly, Firefox looks right, but the GTK+ standard dialogue boxes it uses don't. I have gtk*-engines-oxygen installed; this appears to happen regardless of engine. I tried installing gnom,e-settings-daemon, but that dind't work. What can I do? Thanks.
[18:17] <pietro10> ok my thing seems to be an issue with cairo?...
[18:56] <pietro10> [13:55] <pietro10> oh here's some fun
[18:56] <pietro10> [13:55] <pietro10> the KDE session locker is ALSO using the wrong font kerning!
[19:02] <chrispecoraro> i cannot get the 14.04 resolution to be anything other than 640x480 in virtualbox
[19:02] <chrispecoraro> and the virtualbox addons says that the headers are not installed for the current version, even though that they are. Any info?
[19:09] <bekks> They arent installed.
[19:09] <bekks> The guest additions dont lie.
[19:17] <BluesKaj> chrispecoraro, boot the guest OS then install guest additions from devices
[19:20] <elfy> chrispecoraro: it's not just you - nor is it not installing the guest additions
[19:20] <elfy> https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/12623
[19:22] <elfy> got the same issue here - so have a few others I know
[19:22] <chrispecoraro> so should I just go back to 13.10
[19:23] <chrispecoraro> I had 13.10 installed but then I upgraded to Mavericks and the sound stopped working and other problems (compiz is using 200% of the CPU)
[19:23] <chrispecoraro> So my 13.10 is hosed, and my 14.04 is hosed too!
[19:24] <chrispecoraro> Unfortunately, I cannot install Ubuntu on the MacBook
[19:25] <chrispecoraro> warranty issues, according to our IT guy...
[19:27] <chrispecoraro> So I'm stuck running ubuntu in VirtualBox (unless there are other options)

[23:50] <huayra> Hey there
[23:50] <huayra> Want to move from 13.04 straight to 14.04
[23:50] <huayra> is it possible to do that now?
[23:50] <huayra> I am skipping 13.10
[23:50] <huayra> Using Ubuntu with Unity (actually defaulting to Classic, but still)
[23:51] <huayra> I can live with a broken system or even install from scratch if I have to, but my main aim now is to get to 14.04
[23:51] <huayra> In whatever state it is
[23:51] <jtaylor> you can only upgrade over 13.10
[23:52] <bekks> You cannot skip 13.10
[23:52] <jtaylor> though you could try the direct upgrade, but its likely to fail
[23:52] <huayra> will that be the case once 14.04 is released as well?
[23:52] <jtaylor> yes
[23:52] <huayra> ok I will try the direct upgrade then
[23:52] <jtaylor> only upgrade from 13.10 and 12.04 is supported
[23:53] <huayra> sources.list? or can I tweak update-manager in some way?
[23:53] <huayra> Feeling adventurous tonight :D
[23:54] <jtaylor> you probably need to edit sources.list
[23:55] <huayra> jtaylor, thank you very much
[23:55] <huayra> bekks, thanks for your reply as well
[23:55] <huayra> let's see how this goes
[23:55] <huayra> :)
[23:55] <jtaylor> don't be surprised when it borks your system :)
