[04:10] <jAguAr`> i just updated my system from 12.04 to 14.04 and now i can't get either gnome or kde to boot properly... please help |
|
[04:44] <guesting738> I tried the ubuntu 14.04 daily image about a month ago and I noticed some primitive hidpi support. I hear that it is much improved, so I put today's daily image on a flash drive and am trying it out--but unlike before it is not automatically detecting the hidpi screen. How do I enable hidpi in 14.04? |
|
[05:32] <Busybyeski> howdy! how can i upgrade from 13.10 to the LTS beta? |
|
[05:34] <usr13_> Busybyeski: Do you have a seperate /home/ partition? |
|
[05:35] <usr13_> Busybyeski: If so, just do fresh install and leave /home/ partition alone, same user name.... |
|
[05:35] <usr13_> and your good to go. |
|
[05:36] <usr13_> There may be another way though, someone else will probably let you know. |

[08:48] <DEBIMAN> hey guys |
|
[08:48] <DEBIMAN> are 14.04 stable enough for a daily driver? |
|
[08:48] <DEBIMAN> I'm willing to submit reports of bugs |
|
[08:49] <DEBIMAN> Just would like to know if it's severely bugged to the point of no use |
|
[08:49] <DJones> I started using it at the weekend, I've found it stable so far, but obviously what works for me may not work for everybody else and their hardware |
|
[08:49] <DEBIMAN> What's your set up |
|
[08:49] <maxb> ditto |
|
[08:49] <DEBIMAN> I'm gonna be running it on a intel chipset with core 2 duo |
|
[08:49] <DEBIMAN> with 4gb of ram |
|
[08:50] <DEBIMAN> with broadcom wifi |
|
[08:50] <Stanley00> well, works fine on my system, just use the default install :D |
|
[08:50] <maxb> I've hit minor UI bugs, but nothing more significant |
|
[08:50] <DJones> DEBIMAN: I installed on a new laptop, i7, 8gb and dual intel/nvidia graphics, I was surprised at how well it installed and just worked using the nvidia-prime for graphics switching |
|
[08:50] <DEBIMAN> oh I see |
|
[08:51] <DEBIMAN> and I'm assuming the kernel can handle btrfs |
|
[08:51] <DEBIMAN> I love that fs |
|
[08:51] <DEBIMAN> Gonna try zfs too soon |
|
[08:51] <DJones> I get a bit of font corruption in chromium-browser, but not spotted any other issues yet |
|
[08:52] <DEBIMAN> have you tried the LCD font smoothing on about:flags? |
|
[08:52] <DEBIMAN> That has helped me plenty on most *nix |
|
[08:52] <DJones> Not yet, I'll have a look at that though, thanks for the heads up |
|
[08:52] <DEBIMAN> np |
|
[08:53] <DEBIMAN> just had to restart it |
|
[08:53] <DEBIMAN> I'm wondering if FF is better for ubuntu machines |
|
[08:54] <DEBIMAN> I notice that the js speed is a bit slower for chrome/chromium on ubuntu |
|
[08:54] <DEBIMAN> But it could most certainly be just me |
|
[08:55] <Overlordz> firefox nightly seems pretty fast |
|
[08:55] <Overlordz> though I could just be imagining it |
|
[08:58] <DEBIMAN> It's only about a 20 msec diff |
|
[08:58] <DEBIMAN> But boy is midori slow |

[12:24] <blackh> hey guys :) |
|
[12:24] <blackh> I have a question, is there a way to install ubuntu trusty tahr now? |
|
[12:24] <blackh> and is it safe? |
|
[12:25] <xsacha> blackh: daily build? |
|
[12:25] <xsacha> or are you upgrading |
|
[12:25] <blackh> im now using ubuntu 13.10, but i want to give 14.04 a try |
|
[12:25] <blackh> what is daily build? |
|
[12:27] <blackh> sorry for the noobish questions |
|
[12:30] <ikonia> blackh: if you're not experienced with ubuntu - I'd advise waiting for 14.04 to be released stable/public |
|
[12:31] <blackh> oh, but just for information |
|
[12:32] <blackh> if I install ubuntu 14.04, I'll have to download a daily build every day? |
|
[12:32] <ikonia> no |
|
[12:32] <blackh> so what is a daily build? |
|
[12:39] <xsacha> .. :P |
|
[12:50] <ngaio> the daily build is a 900MB (or so) ISO from which you install. Once installed you then update it using standard update tools in Ubuntu. |
|
[12:55] <xsacha> ngaio: he left after no one talked for almost 2 and a half minutes |
|
[12:56] <ngaio> oh! |
|
[12:56] <xsacha> 3 and a half* |

[16:47] <johnjohn101> having issues with unity freezing up on 14.04 with lastest updates |
|
[16:53] <CountryfiedLinux> Unity used to freeze constantly early on, now it's just occasionally |
|
[16:53] <CountryfiedLinux> a few times a day maybe |
|
[16:53] <CountryfiedLinux> Well firefox windows usually |
|
[16:53] <johnjohn101> yeah, seems to be related to firefox |
|
[16:54] <CountryfiedLinux> I dunno if it's the same with other browsers. |
|
[16:55] <CountryfiedLinux> Last year I noticed a feature lapse in Unity |
|
[16:56] <CountryfiedLinux> ya know how when there's multiple windows open for one app and you click it's icon on the launcher bar and it goes into overview mode? put one of those windows "always on top" and notice that functionality doesn't work after that. |
|
[17:05] <johnjohn101> froze again. I switched back to an older ubuntu |

[18:50] <KM_> Hello |

[18:50] <KM_> I have a problem with 14.04 |
|
[18:50] <KM_> Everytime I login, the screen becomes too dark, (is this due to xbacklight I had in my 13.10 ?) and as soon as I increase the brightness to one more point, the brightness gets normal. And after all this, I am unable to enter the password (the cursor hangs and doesn't blink). I have to suspend and start again to get things normal. |
