Re: [Lubuntu-qa] Desktop i386 beta 2 workaround for not starting

2015-03-29 Thread Henk Terhell
Thanks. My observations here on LSC of i386 are for Alternate  version 
of 20150328.


As a note: I have still one installation left of i386 L.15.04 running 
without problems. I don't know the date, but it is without any of the 
following bugs:


-unable to install the iso;
- the missing software repository in LSC;
- the authentication problem for software/driver/additional user 
installation ;

- the volume control right-click not showing alsa-mixer.

This installation is still kernel 3.18.0.12 (the latest is 3.19).
I have consciously not updated this installation because kernel panic is 
most likely to occur after a restart.

Yes, confirmed, I remember this clearly.

 I tried with adding nocompcache in the boot option line of desktop i386 
 but this had no effect. In nomodeset attached screen dump is shown after 
 which CD drive stops spinning.


Hi,

If this is only a matter of testing the installer, once you are on the desktop 
you can
stop zram.

In the console, sudo service zram-config stop, then check the swaps:

$ cat /proc/swaps

$ sudo swapoff /dev/zram0 

or both /dev/zram0 and /dev/zram1 if you have several (depending on how many 
processors
seen).

Then you can retry the installer and see if it helps (it works) or if it is 
unrelated (it
still doesn't work).

Keep checking the /var/crash directory for files.

Best regards,
Mélodie

Yes, confirmed, I remember this clearly.

 Synaptic and command line installation works OK. Also LSC in the AMD64
 version works OK.

I cannot confirm this right now. I haven't got Lubuntu running, and
don't remember these details (and have no time now to check).

2015-03-29 Thread Henk Terhell
This bug of missing software in the Lubuntu Software Center was found 
again on i386 alternate version of 20150329.
I just learned from bug report #1303056 that 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure 
lubuntu-software-center' solves this.
