[ubuntu-uk] Upgrading to 8.04
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Seriously you lot - will you stop upgrading so I can have a go? :P Had a go last night but gave up as various things kept timing out and now I apparently have 5 days 18 hours and 13 minutes remaining. I may just be a little more patient and wait a few days. How's it gone for those of you who got in there first - any hitches, unsung amazing new features etc? The new kernel advertises that it will support my wireless card without ndiswrapper so fingers crossed for that.

Upgraded my laptop from 7.10 to 8.04 OK, except for 100% CPU problem with evolution-data-server, which I fixed after a bit of Googling by disabling: System/Preference/Sessions/Startup Programs/Evolution Alarm Notifier I had also disabled 'Tracker' under 7.10 because it is a resource hog! The new kernel advertises that it will support my wireless card without ndiswrapper so fingers crossed for that. Automatically installed fwcutter + the Broadcom firmware on my laptop. Noty test ed that it works yet, though =- Hmm... Crashed and burned trying to upgrade one of our 6.06.1 LTS servers because the repo's were too busy by then ;-) Tony. -- Dr. A.J.Travis, | mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Rowett Research Institute, |http://www.rri.sari.ac.uk/~ajt Greenburn Road, Bucksburn, | phone:+44 (0)1224 712751 Aberdeen AB21 9SB, Scotland, UK.| fax:+44 (0)1224 716687 -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.org/UKTeam/

Make sure you tell it NOT to download updates whilst installing. Once that's done it doesn't have much more to download. The new intel X driver is amazing. -- Andrew Oakley -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.org/UKTeam/
[ubuntu-uk] Hardy CD Case Artwork - Printing??
Maybe I'm missing something obvious, I want to make some cds for friends/family but on the Art wiki the pdf is c 16 x 6, My printer can't do this even if I could get the paper :-) Is there an A4 version somewhere or am i missing something? (I would also like to print from Windows as my printer gives the best definition etc on Win) TIA Eddie -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.org/UKTeam/
Re: [ubuntu-uk] Upgrading to 8.04
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I now have Hardy... been having 'fun' so far though - lots of xorg and xserver dependency/conflict problems during the upgrade to start with. I had to uninstall the nvidia-glx-new package, upgrade packages (xorg-core installed at this point) then re-install. Then when I rebooted and logged in I got a plethora of 'crash detected' reports plus dozens for the broken dependencies on the upgrade. Unsurprisingly I can't enable desktop effects now as although the nvidia driver is enabled it doesn't seem to be working - glxgears don't run etc. This isn't a plea for help, I shall sort the problems out and log bugs if I manage to glean any information which would help a poor developer. It may be that I have a 3rd party repository enabled that I shouldn't have. - -- Stephen O'Neill w: http://www.thefloatingfrog.co.uk/ e: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFIEloLJ+Auntu1v4QRAjiUAJ9RNZvS1+xphoC0MXQwZzxKZ97qhACeM67U r9uRJan8XoTu/YSSK0A8JhY= =vE8f -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.org/UKTeam/
