freak! that's the initials of a extension I support

build on arm, build for arm, install on arm, arm ide, arm plugin, arm ubuntu touch...**

I'm separating everything, build to/for/on arm -> compilation(and related tags)/software installation, install arm tools -> software-installation, install on arm -> system installation, ubuntu touch related questions -> ubuntu-touch

Seth

We still need arm.

So arm experts can watch arm questions.

But yeah, questions about Ubuntu Touch + Android + Phones don't need arm.

That's for like Raspi's and such.

Braiam

wait, @RPiAwesomeness do you follow the arm tag? and if not, which tags you follow?

and add this example.conf file in that init file

and also place it in /etc folder as well?

and then how to start it?

sorry if I am asking silly question

Journeyman Geek

no, you add a .conf file in the /etc/init folder

so if its tomato.conf, you start it with, iirc service start tomato

14:51

@Mateo things go. i've got a lot of balls in the air. the proposed change for the fixed ratio - i'm thinking 4:3 and 6:9 toggle selection (either or radio buttons) and a size slider. i haven't been able to test the no camera thing. maybe if i just rmmod the uvcvideo kernel module for testing. not sure if it will autoload the module trying to find a camera or not, but it's worth a shot. that one bug has 4 issues or so tied to it.

Mateo

15:02

@hbdgaf hm, if you have example code I have a tower without a camera to test

hbdgaf

15:34

@Mateo that's the thing. i don't have any idea. i can't find the function calls i need in GST. have you tried running it there and examining the terminal output? if it doesn't produce any, try taking out any blanket try: except stuff and see what it spits. I should be able to catch it, I just don't have something to find out the error that is thrown. if it throws something specific, i can give you test code on pastebin or something

(not finding functions i need is related to finding the dimensions of the feed from a dynamic source... all the size calls i can find deal with buffer size not resolution). anyway, i have been working on it, i'm just sort of hitting a wall on the no black bars auto-selection bit.

i shouldn't have to choose the aspect ratio as a user, the programmer should choose it for me to do away with those nasty bars and cropping.

FEichinger

Yay! I have bug #1249787

That explains why I can't manage to install saucy here.

hbdgaf

@FEichinger I'm so sorry. Have you tried Trusty? that's what I'm running on my daily driver

FEichinger

15:44

@hbdgaf I'm downloading it as we speak :/

hbdgaf

It's going to be an LTS, so I think it will get severe bug weight for things like that.

FEichinger

It allegedly works in trusty, although noone seems to know just why.

hbdgaf

Is it dual graphics? I see that it reports as Intel not blob-lover on trusty from the thread.

FEichinger

I suspect that that's related, yes.

hbdgaf

If you switch your default graphics in bios to intel, the problem may resolve for saucy. Then you can go about installing blobs and whatnot to make it work with less pain.

I don't have a hybrid to test on, but I suspect there's a setting to say "disable my nvidia stuff...just use the intel". Boot. Install blobs. Reboot. Turn it back on. Dance widdershins and pray. <-- would be my approach.

FEichinger

15:50

Nope. Integrated display is hardwired to the Intel card, as far as I can tell. Haven't seen any option in the BIOS either.

That's the case for my laptop, at least. Not sure about the reporter's.

I'm sorry. MSI is usually better about stuff like that.

Windows 8

Can someone Help me out?
I am installing Lubuntu 13.10 and while installation, when we do partitions, I can't find my HDD. My Older Lubuntu was crashed because of zram. Any Help would be appreciated

and when I try to open, my HDD, I see this error

Error mounting /dev/sda7 at /media/lubuntu/a5921cad-a3c3-4b4e-8632-09100530a403: Command-line `mount -t "ext4" -o "uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid" "/dev/sda7" "/media/lubuntu/a5921cad-a3c3-4b4e-8632-09100530a403"' exited with non-zero exit status 32: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda7,
       missing codepage or helper program, or other error
       In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
       dmesg | tail  or so

FEichinger

@Windows8 Well, try dmesg | tail then ;)

That said, the reason is probably that the target partition isn't actually ext4, despite the system trying to mount it as such.

hbdgaf

Sounds like you're either using some abstraction layer - luks or lvm for example, partition magic hasn't been written yet, or it's ext3 and you're trying to mount it as 4. you can mount newer ext as older iirc, but not vice-versa

FEichinger

15:55

@hbdgaf What happens for me is that, when trying to boot for install, the integrated display turns off (presumably because of hybrid graphics) and the boot crashes with divide error 0000 [#1] SMP. I can solve the display problem by plugging in an external display (and later-on fixing the driver settings), but the crash is not fixable in saucy - from what the launchpad entry tells me, at least.

hbdgaf

I think the root of the problem is trying to default to performance in edge/non-lts and defaulting to stable/intel in going to be lts.

You can't blame them really.

Windows 8

@FEichinger paste.ubuntu.com/6697675

@hbdgaf but how?

hbdgaf

@Windows8 how what?

Windows 8

@hbdgaf the answer you gave me, how to mount as ex3?

i mean ex4

@hbdgaf I ran dmesg and saw this paste.ubuntu.com/6697675

hbdgaf

@Windows8 mount as ext3 or ext2 and see what happens. if you don't get bad superblock and it mounts than you're using the wrong partition type.

FEichinger

16:04

@hbdgaf I assume he's using the GUI during install.

Windows 8

@FEichinger yes i am using GUI,

@hbdgaf okay i am trying

FEichinger

Question is: Why does the GUI think it's the wrong fs type? Which I have absolutely no answer to, unless you messed some settings up.

@FEichinger Are you still a bridge reserve officer?

FEichinger

@Seth Reserve, as in "currently not ownerified".

Seth

Ah. Okay. I thought reserve meant you were still an owner.

FEichinger

No, no, That would just be "Bridge Officer".

@JasperLoy What version of GNOME exactly?

Jasper Loy

@Seth I think GNOME 3.8 and 3.10 both give problems. Hi!
