[Bug 1625358] Re: os-prober tries to mount bios_grub (BIOS boot) partition

2016-12-22 Thread Brian Martin
My parted output for this partition is:

Number  Start   End SizeFile system  Name   Flags
 1  1049kB  8389kB  7340kB   bios_grub  bios_grub

Ideally, the bios_grub flag could be used to tell relevant code (os-
prober, apparently) to ignore this partition.  That would eliminate 96
scary messages from my boot log.  There are two disks on my system (for
failover purposes), each with a bios_grub flag.  Each one gets 48 of
these useless messages.  For some reason, os-prober is probing each disk
multiple times.  Since I monitor my logs closely, I'd love to have these
go away. Log messages for one of the two disks appears below, just in
case there's some new information in them.

[Bug 50093] Re: Some sysctl's are ignored on boot

2016-08-10 Thread Brian Martin
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 771372 ***
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/771372

This is still a problem in 16.04 LTS/xenial.  I lost a whole workday
chasing this down after an upgrade.  I don't think it's a duplicate of
771372, as the above discussion indicates there is no "right" place to
run procps, and 771372 works on that presumption.  Instead, the start-up
process needs to be reworked, or at least the network-related settings
need to be reassigned to the network start-up process instead of living
in procps.  With the increased use of bridges (KVM, LXC, etc.), we
should have a smooth start-up process for bridges and bridge-related
settings.

I confess I don't understand all the complexities others apparently see.
We need someone that really understands the relevant start-up processes
to architect a good solution.  What can we do to get a little attention
on this problem?

[Bug 1610583] Re: package kaccounts-providers (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/etc/signon-ui/webkit-options.d/www.facebook.com.conf', which is also in package account-p

2016-08-09 Thread Brian Martin
This happened when I was trying to change from Gnome to KDE. It asked me
a question that made no sense to this totally inexperienced linux user,
and I figured that I had a slightly better chance of being correct if I
chose the first of the 2 options. It had something to do with windows
[which I need for a few programs], and maybe network managers, but I'm
not really sure.

Here's what the terminal looked like when I typed the terminal command
to install KDE again:

brian@brian-XPS-8500:~$ sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[sudo] password for brian: 
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree   
Reading state information... Done
kubuntu-desktop is already the newest version (1.338).
You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 kde-telepathy-minimal : Depends: kde-config-telepathy-accounts (>= 15.04.0) 
but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a 
solution).

brian@brian-XPS-8500:~$ apt-get -f install
E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13: Permission denied)
E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?


So I can't tell if this is a bug, or if I chose the wrong option when I tried 
to install KDE. As far as I can tell, I can't get into KDE, I've tried 
restarting and logging off. Please help.
