(note: i am not content to do the freedesktop thing and have 1 icon represent a whole family of icons) You mean that you want separate PSD, PNG, and JPG icons instead of one IMAGE icon, for example? Sounds good. What you may want to consider, however, is to keep the icons of these families related in representation. For example, make the JPG and PNG icons identical except for the colouring of the icon (or very small tweaks to the image at most). Conn Too many colors will only end up , as a non-indicator of what the icon really represents. Wouldnt it be better , if all the image files[png,jpg,svg] / all video files had the *same bottom color* and only the images within them had different colors? and labeled in the larger icon sizes. cheers, mac_v -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art
[ubuntu-art] New Wave User Requests
Hello everybody, This thread is about telling me what you would like to have changed/added in New Wave so that it better fits your needs. Fell free to express everything. Not everything that is requested thought will be included because first I'll have to make sure it will be of benefit to everybody else using the theme. So here is a list of things that are already changed and will make it in 0.8.1: - Combobox fix in Open Office and other apps that use the old format option-box. - Brasero notifications fix. - Scrollbars inside OO and FF are much better looking and integrating. - Metacity improvements for dialog windows (bottom line in titlebar and modal dialogs look different). unfortunately these additions do not show when you use compiz.

[ubuntu-art] [Breathe]Palette and contrast
I saw that all of Breathe icons are not coordinated palette and in general are very different. well as the folder icons are too saturated. You can see sets of many icons such as humanity or gnome-colors, which despite having a different style, are pleasant and Swabian. we need to fix this in Breathe i think.

[ubuntu-in] This Connection is Untrusted (tourble with Firefox)
Hi Am facing some trouble with firefox - on some sites that require secure connections - like ticket bookings, passport sites etc. The problem is when i click on some links i get this message (below between the ***) *This Connection is Untrusted* *You have asked Firefox to connect securely to passport.gov.in, but we can't confirm that your connection is secure. Normally, when you try to connect securely, sites will present trusted identification to prove that you are going to the right place. However, this site's identity can't be verified. If you usually connect to this site without problems, this error could mean that someone is trying to impersonate the site, and you shouldn't continue. *Technical Details* passport.gov.in uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is not trusted because the issuer certificate has expired. (Error code: sec_error_expired_issuer_certificate) * *** am using firefox 3.5 in Ubuntu. I downloaded the firefox tar.gz and extracted it and copied the extracted folder to /home/user/.mozilla/ and made links to the firefox shell script there. am wondering if this error has anything to do with Firefox 3.5 and the fact that its not updated on 9.04 via the normal update routes ram -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in

This is a security feature of Firefox that shows problems with website security certificates. If you are not doing a financial transaction, or dealing with sensitive data, it is probably OK to go ahead and click through to make a security exception in Firefox for the site in question. This will normally need to be done only once per site. The problem with this Firefox feature is that it also catches self-signed certificates, which causes problems for many FOSS-related sites (including http://www.sarai.net). It is also arguable that CA-signed certificates do not really add that much more trust. In this particular case, passport.gov.in, you should probably not make an exception, and instead complain loudly to the site maintainer. It is ridiculous that they cannot be bothered to keep their site certificates up to date. So much for the people who are pushing the much-vaunted National ID card.

2009/7/15 John Matthews jake...@sky.com: Hi, thank you for your message. So as I understand it then, if I have a folder on the desktop called title, that is called a directory then yes? I wanted to copy that folder to the home directory. So what is the difference between scp and cp ~r Others have explained the difference between the commands, but I just wanted to point something out that may cause more confusion. It might just be a typo, but you used a ~ (tilde) in your question, where Sean used a - (minus or hyphen). Using a hyphen marks the next group of characters as an option to change the behaviour of the command you are using. Using a tilde refers to a user's home directory, and you'll get some strange error messages! You can also use the -r option on the scp command to copy a directory and its contents. I really am not getting it, its very confusing. This page is showing two different ways of copying. I am more confused now. I need to find a night school, so I can get somebody to show me, this is just not working. A LUG would also help, and is probably free (as in cost) too! This is the sort of situation where it will take about 10 weeks by email/mailing list to tell you as much about the command line as can be demonstrated in 10 minutes with two people at one PC! LUGs are friendly and most welcome new members, so it's definitely worth looking for one near you. I have never felt so frustrated in all my life as I have since trying to learn Linux. I used to be an Intensive Care nurse, and I never found it as hard as this. It was intense, but not as hard to work out what to do. You were probably in the same room as the person who trained you to be an Intensive Care nurse.

[ubuntu-uk] Where Ubuntu falls short
Hi -- just sharing a couple of thoughts, really, as an Ubuntu user of 6 months or so. The first is, for myself, I *love* using linux, and am very happy I made the switch to Ubuntu. That said, I am a programmer, and a geek, and so am getting the most benefit from the tools that linux users have long taken for granted, from EMACS, to gcc, to everything being developed for linux as a first, and therefore a first-class, platform. So that's great. However, I have found that Ubuntu has fallen rather short in a couple of areas that mean that I would not recommend it to an average user (as I have earlier this year, to mine their chagrin) who would use it as a 'leisure' OS. One is: setup. It's an impossible task to write drivers that will work on any amount of machines, particularly when the manufacturors of those machines don't give a fig about you, so I'm not having a do at any of the amazing developers here, but the issues I had/have with sound cards keyboards, and that I've had/have with other machines with sound wireless connections, mean that I could not recommend Ubuntu to an 'average' user -- I would *have* to be on-hand and prepared to sacrifice some serious support time to compliment my recommendation if I did. Another is video and sound (in general): I find that the quality of playback for both audio and video (but esp. video) to be significantly lower than on OSX (on the same machine) and Vista. The screen flickers and has refresh breaks in the middle of the screen, and on a lower-end machine, jumped intolerably for the majority of files. I've found some embedded video files like those embedded from youtube to be of an unwatchable quality in Ubuntu, with black squares flickering in the middle of the screen. Again, I imagine the task facing those who write drivers for *all* variants of machine to use, and am awed -- but this would still bug the average user. Another is supported proprietary software, which just isn't Ubuntu's fault (as I don't think the others are, tbh). The biggie being iTunes, which you need for an iPhone, and everybody their dog seems to want one of those. There's no way for an 'average' user to easily get up running with it in an emulator or dual-boot or whatever. Another would be games, I imagine, but I don't really play those. All of this, like I say, isn't a whinge, it's just some observations. For me (as a geek), I'm delighted with Ubuntu, and know that I will continue with it ( maybe other variants of linux) for the forseeable future, as it has an amazing set of tools repositories that make my life as a geek much happier, and I love the free software philosophy. And I could happily recommend it for office users, too. But, for me, it still isn't something I'd recommend to the average, leisure user, unless they really expressed an interest in learning all about it -- even I haven't been able to fully put away OSX for media stuff. Please bear in mind that Ubuntu is the only variant of linux that I've spent any real time with, and that my experience of using it as a lesiure OS is limited to a couple of machines (Asus Aspire Macbook) -- I've used many more at work *for* work have nothing but joy to report. Anyway, I hope this message is taken in the spirit it is offered -- not as a flame or whinge, but as some (hopefully) constructive observations on an OS I've really come to love. What do others think? Is it something they would recommend to non-geeks as a swap in for OSX, or Windows? Cheers, Doug. -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

Re: [ubuntu-uk] Where Ubuntu falls short
You've had issues with keyboards? Never heard of that one before... what type of keyboard? And what was the issue? The machine I set up for someone else, I set up using my preferred layout (Dvorák), and then set it to normal ASCII, but it keeps reverting. No big deal, but annoying, especially to a novice. Are you using proprietary Flash plug-in or the open one? Might be worth trying the other... I'll look into that, cheers. Ah, but if more people started using Linux then Apple might consider it a good idea to port their software... it's a supply demand thing... ;-) Yeah, but if you're setting up a system for someone who trusts you to do the best job you can for them, until that supply demand thing is settled, is it really ethical to stick them with being a statistical martyr to the cause? The iPhone requirement came after I'd set the system up, but still something like that should perhaps have been anticipated. And have you proven iTunes doesn't work? I've looked at a fair few places to get iTunes working on Ubuntu, and all of the ones I saw seem to say it won't (under WINE or anything else). I'll look at the link you've provided (cheers again), but I'm not holding out much hope (from past experience), and even less for getting it working to update an iPhone. As for *proving* it can't work, I'm afraid I'm not nearly enough of an expert to begin to exhaustively set about that task! Besides, you can't prove a negative, you can only *dis*prove it. ;) But I'd probably suggest Linux to those people over OS-X, because their Windows mates might be able to figure out how to use Linux as it is similar (and the majority of the key combinations (eg. ctrl-alt-delete)) are the same whereas OS-X has a completely different methodology altogether. I wouldn't have expected that! I must admit that I'm very fond of OSX the way it works, so much so that I can bear to work in it from time to time when I can't in linux. And it was OSX (being built on Darwin) that got me into trying out linux. For a newb, as well, my experience has been that OSX is *miles* more intuitive than any other OS, so that people don't really *need* their mates to come around -- it just does what they expect intuitively -- human-oriented software! Again, I must declaim that my experience of seeing newbs on various systems is limited to my own trials observing a few others, but in that experience, OSX definately seems to be the one that people can take to with most confidence. So I guess I'm the opposite! ;) I'd recommend OSX to any 'average' user with a budget, Ubuntu to anyone with any technical bent, and Windoze to anyone with little cash who just wanted basic stuff (web, video, audio, wireless) to work didn't know how to get it to if it didn't. Although maybe I'd recuse myself before that last recommendation. ;) Cheers for the considered response, Doug. PS -- the system I setup was for someone who lives in a different country, just in case anyone's thinking that maybe I should just get 'round there fix it. :) -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

Sean I have to say that I have always wanted to use Linux, Ubuntu in particular, since I saw a friend using it. It took me a long time to pluck up the courage to try a partition, then I discovered Wubi, that opened it up for me. I have to agree with Doug, and add Linux is more for somebody who is proficient in programming, and is more for those who are used to computers in general. People do want a work out of the box machine, and Ubuntu isnt totally out of the box, it does need other bits and pieces added, and unless you know that, it doesnt work how most people are used to having a machine work. Unless you spend a lot of time reading through the pages and pages of the Ubuntu wiki, you wouldnt know that there are extra repositories that you need, to get certain things that you have already installed on a Windows machine. I went for months before I got shown about medibuntu. The forum helps in some respects but you get told on there, read the wiki, or plough through searches on the forum, and then come back and ask, if you cant get it to work. I wanted to try get connected apart from my network at home through wireless, you cannot do that without knowing how to use the terminal, dongles from any of the main mobile carriers, wont work, just by plugging it in, so no wireless outside of the house. I had to get told about Bluetooth and Joiku spot, but Joiku spot wouldnt work with my 8.04 version, but it does now. Each upgrade, could essentially cause the computer not to work. I went from partitioning on 8.04 working to upgrading to 8.10, and not working. My only visit to the London Lug and two people working on the machine couldnt get it to work, froze the minute it got to the log in screen, uninstalled the installed from a different cd, not a chance, then 9.10 came along, and it works again, but without a lot of the desktop extras. Its the graphics card its not good enough. I have to thank Michael Fletcher for spending quite a lot of time on the phone and pc to pc working with it to get it to work. Same with adding Ubuntu onto my netbook, it came with Linux lite, that took a while, and a lot of work to get it how it is now. Thanks to Michael again. There is something to Ubuntu not being a contender like Windows and Mac, so many people take their Linux machines back, because they cant get it to connect to their internet connection, and that is before you even start with everything else. When I got my little netbook from the shop, they warned me, you do realise it most likely wont work, keep the receipt. This particular shop no longer stocks this netbook with Linux, because they had so many bought back. Plus, my experience in learning the shell script. I really do want to learn it, and its been causing me so much frustration. That is my experience so far with Linux, but I'm still here, trying, 'very trying' some would say, lol. I wish I was doing this at school age, would probably be a lot easier. This is also not a winge, its my experience as a novice.

John Matthews wrote: People do want a work out of the box machine, and Ubuntu isnt totally out of the box, it does need other bits and pieces added, and unless you know that, it doesnt work how most people are used to having a machine work. snip Actually this is a common misconception. A default installation of Windows XP from an original installation CD doesn't come with much. You get the OS, Internet Explorer, and one or two apps (Media Player, Notepad, Wordpad, Paint, Windows Messenger, Outlook Express*). Things like Flash, Office etc are all added afterwards not to mention probably a whole load of drivers which are required. On newer hardware you can also find that you may need a driver disk to detect things like hard drives before you get Windows installed. * Bear in mind, Windows Messenger is out of date and has been replaced with Windows Live Messenger and Outlook Express doesn't work as well as it used to with things like Hotmail. Great at the time but it's been replaced by newer apps. I presume what you're getting at is a PC bought from a shop with Windows pre-installed has everything added including usually these days a trial version of Office 2007 which will work for about 20 times and then expire (yes I know, pretty lousy but this is what Microsoft do these days) . This isn't a fair comparison though to just installing Ubuntu from a CD. It's also a valid argument that Ubuntu comes pre-installed with a Media Player, Web Browser, E-Mail client, and OpenOffice.org. Installing Flash and extra codecs is fairly straight forward. When you go to a site which requires Flash is prompts to install it, when you try and play a media file it prompts to install the codecs. Unless you spend a lot of time reading through the pages and pages of the Ubuntu wiki, you wouldnt know that there are extra repositories that you need, to get certain things that you have already installed on a Windows machine. I went for months before I got shown about medibuntu. The forum helps in some respects but you get told on there, read the wiki, or plough through searches on the forum, and then come back and ask, if you cant get it to work. You don't need Medibuntu, you can get the codecs from the standard repositories. Sure I do add repositories myself for things such as Wine and VirtualBox but not everyone needs to do this. It's the same for Windows though, you have to download extra codecs unless all you're playing is MP3 and WMV/WMA media files. I wanted to try get connected apart from my network at home through wireless, you cannot do that without knowing how to use the terminal, dongles from any of the main mobile carriers, wont work, just by plugging it in, so no wireless outside of the house. I had to get told about Bluetooth and Joiku spot, but Joiku spot wouldnt work with my 8.04 version, but it does now. Depends on which version of Ubuntu you have. I have a Vodafone Pay and Go 3G dongle, cost about £40 from the Vodafone store. I plugged it in on Ubuntu 9.04 and about 10 seconds later I was prompted for what my provider was from a list of pre-defined providers (which covered ALL the networks in the UK and others too). Now plugging the dongle in I can get online in seconds (subject to reception, not a problem with Ubuntu, the same happens on Windows). My dad's Three soap on a rope style modem also works fine. Now on Vista, I had to install the Vodafone Mobile Connect software which took about a minute or two and I have to wait for it to load up when I plug the dongle in. With regards to wireless, my network adaptor (Intel Wireless) was detected straight away and just works (tm). The same goes for my Netgear USB dongle too. I have also tried various other machines with different wireless chipsets and many of them just work out of the box. Granted on Ubuntu 8.04 there isn't native support but I could argue that only in the last year has the dongle prices come down closer to what most people can afford (those Three and O2 ones are getting really cheap now!).

This particular shop no longer stocks this netbook with Linux, because they had so many bought back. I see what you're saying, but to balance the viewpoint, many people (esp. when talking about Linux) seem to gloss over a lot of Windows failings. Windows just works out of the box. Well kind of, once you've installed an office suite, and some antivirus, antimalware, a codec pack in case you're not using MS approved codecs, a pile of drivers (for your printer, scanner, 3G dongle, graphics tablet), a better browser and mail client. Then (like my sister last week) you spend £30 on a game (Sims 3) and it doesn't run (keeps crashing). The handbooks says update your drivers, but as Sims 3 didn't come with a driver CD (like the printer/scanner/graphics table) you're lost and call your bro. He digs out the right page on the HP website, writes large email detailing what to do. This doesn't work, Sims 3 still crashes. This time the unpaid tech support gets the drivers direct from Intel, this doesn't work either as the laptop is whining that the existing drivers have been 'specially modified by the manufacturer to improve performance on this computer' and won't let the Intel drivers install. Another large email detailing uninstalling the drivers, rebooting, installing the Intel drivers, etc. This fixes the issue, but leaves the screen set to a whacky resolution, another email later, the Sims finally works. I'd like to say this kind of thing is uncommon, but if you're 'unpaid tech support' you see an awful lot of it, if you're paid tech support, you'll see this kind of thing daily. So - 'works out of the box' I wouldn't exactly say it does. I've been using Windows professionally since V2.0 demo came out... and it hasn't exactly been bed of roses...

Enough to get them in trouble with the EU, the American government being too craven to hit 'em where it hurts. The only reason the EU version of Windows 7 will be crippled by not having IE, WMP a couple of other things is that MS refused the EU's suggested solution, which is to offer the new user a choice of browser etc. Couldn't be seen to be promoting rival products, oh no. Of course, they *do* promote rival products - e.g. search engines in IE 7 8. But Ubuntu does of course come with a lot more - just not the media drivers and things most people need. But there are legal reasons for that. Depends on which version of Ubuntu you have. The 3G support only came in in 8.10. You can retro-fit it to 8.04 but it's not trivial.

There are much better, more generally-useful options than C now. Python would probably be your best bet. Significant chunks of Ubuntu and Red Hat are written in Python - it's a very capable language.

But for all that it's shiny and pretty, and its wizards and help and things might assist many technophobic beginners, it's big, heavyweight, slow, and relatively expensive. It's also not particularly secure - it's actually a step backwards compared to Vista. There is a chance for Linux, but it's a very tough battle ahead.

I loaded it with a standard driver by replacing the entire Ubuntu operating system from a Live CD. It worked fine, updates and all, for three months and then burned out somewhere in the chipset. I have returned it and demanded a refund, on the grounds of its inability to serve the function for which it was supplied.

What's wrong with the e-mailer? You have a choice of multiple e-mail clients: evolution and Thunderbird being the most popular, but there are many others in the repos. Far better than Outlook Express or whatever. And I'm not quite sure what the objections to the music clients are either... are you bemoaning the lack of iTunes, perchance?

But the general issue of one interface being used for file management including photos, a second inconsistent interface being used for viewing and editing individual photos, and a third inconsistent interface being used for viewing and editing collections of photos, is a usability disaster beyond the scope of F-Spot. I am extremely happy to read this acknowledgment of the problem :) As far from a solution it may be. The same is true for all the other collection managers that are installed by default, that is, for banshee. A unique solution (if there is any) might be designed with both use cases in mind. Yes. Ideally, I think, the interface for managing files, the interface for managing music collections, the interface for managing personal photos/recordings, the interface for managing study notes, and so on would all be exact (or almost exact) supersets of a general interface for managing collections. For example, the menu item for creating a new sub-collection of files (a folder) should be in the same place as the menu item for creating a new sub-collection of music (a playlist) and the same place as the menu item for creating a new sub-collection of photos (currently a tag). Currently they're three different menu items with three different icons in three differently-named menus. The situation is made even worse by the fact that movies should belong both to f-spot because vacation pictures include movies - thus these short movies should appear e.g. in the f-spot slideshow - but movies should also belong to banshee, because you want to watch and rate all those anime series that you legally bought and downloaded from some online store. ... Aaron Bockover announced at the Gran Canaria Desktop Summit that Banshee will expand to do basic photo management. So he has a vague idea of this crossover, but probably the wrong approach to solving it, because the ideal interface for playing music/movies (consumption) is quite different from the ideal interface for editing photos/movies (production). - -- Matthew Paul Thomas http://mpt.net.nz/ -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkpfJ3gACgkQ6PUxNfU6ecrD4QCeI6VojFoEUJVe6MRSoYbvySvT 7WAAoI5ner8eRw97I+3ykIxQeqUS35f1 =mS10 -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- ubuntu-desktop mailing list ubuntu-desktop@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-desktop

Survey of l10n team communication tools
In the IRC meeting today, one topic discussed was the ways that localization teams manage their communication. Could a representative from each l10n team please reply to this thread explaining briefly (or not so briefly, if you like ;) how your team keeps in touch? For my part, I come from the Ubuntu Spanish Translators team, where we rely almost entirely on the mailing list [1]. Recently however, due in part to concerns that people newly interested in Spanish translations weren't getting enough feedback, we've been making use of an IRC channel [2] for our team. We also have a wiki [3] which houses our more permanent information, information on how to join our team, links to translations resources, etc. Thanks, Evan R.

l10n team contacts
It was discussed in the IRC meeting today [1] that in order to better facilitate communication between the various localization teams, each team should have a formal contact. Each team's contact should be available on and following this mailing list (ubuntu-translators [2]), and it is strongly recommended that the team contacts be the (or one of the) current l10n team leaders/coordinators. Adi Roiban has volunteered to start the wiki page [3] which will catalogue the l10n team contacts' information. Once it is up and running, each team's contact should upload their contact details to the wiki. Further discussion and clarification about the l10n team contacts issue should take place in this tread. Thanks! Evan R.

We have an IRC channel too, but it's almost empty. We store information of our team, guidelines, and how to join the team and mailing list in our wiki. We have also a small place on the Italian forum where for each release we set up a discussion that users can use to tell us about typos, errors or untranslated strings they see.

Re: Survey of l10n team communication tools
Hi In the Danish translation team we normally just use the general mailing list of danskgruppen (Danish Team), which is used by a variety of Danish FOSS translation groups, including KDE, Gnome, Xfce, Fedora etc. We tag the mail header, e.g [Ubuntu], [Gnome] [KDE] and so on... We try to guide new translators into the mailing list, when they start making translation suggestions through Launchpad. Translation instructions are available on the Danskgruppen wiki, though the complexity of the instructions reflects the complexity of the current challenges of Launchpad :-). IRC is not used very much. I do, however, like the idea of communicating more through the Danish Ubuntu Forum, but when we try to recruit potential translators through the forum, I get almost no replies. /Mads Bille Lundby 2009/7/16 Evan R.

Re: [Ubuntu-BR] Ubuntu One - Problema
Desculpe, estava no trabalho e lá é maior correria. O servidor proxy não é a mesma maquina do Ubuntu One. resumidamente a rede é algo como: Internet proxy / firewall Switch's meu desktop. Quando falei que não conseguia utilizar o link view files foi o seguinte, eu instalei o Ubuntu One no desktop, mais eu preciso liberar o computador para utilizar o serviço, correto? Então eu acessei o site https://ubuntuone.com/ fiz o login e então no centro da tela fica escrito loading eternamente.

[Bug 399954] [NEW] Karmic Boot hangs at Configuring network interfaces
You have been subscribed to a public bug: On a Tylersburg-EP (dual Nehalem CPU), the boot process stops at Configuring network interfaces. If I set VERBOSE=yes inside /etc/init.d/networking , then runlevel: No such file or directory is printed ad infinitum. I found that if I added the '-v' option to /sbin/ifup, then all works well. This behaviour started with 2.6.31-2 and persists in 2.6.31-3. Prior 2.6.30 based kernels work fine. ** Affects: dhcp3 (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium Status: Triaged -- Karmic Boot hangs at Configuring network interfaces https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/bugs/399954 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to dhcp3 in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 399954] Re: Karmic Boot hangs at Configuring network interfaces
Thanks Tim. The bug is in the dhcp3-client script, specifically this bit: # Wait for apparmor to load while [ ! -e $AAPROFILES ]; do # If apparmor is not loaded by the time we leave rcS, we go into S from # another runlevel, or are in a non-S runlevel, just exit runlevel | grep -E -q '( [0-9]|[0-9] S)' exit 0 sleep 1 done For various reasons, this is _NEVER_ going to work! Firstly we call ifup from udev for most standard network devices, and this happens very early in the boot sequence. At this point the /var/run/utmp file doesn't exist, so runlevel will output that error and exit because it can't find the file. Secondly runlevel inherently returns undefined data when running through rcS.d, because you have not yet entered a runlevel. rcS.d is not the single-user runlevel, it is the sysinit phase; until this is completed, you are neither in single-user mode *or* multi-user mode. You're still bootstrapping the system. In fact, during rcS.d runlevel will always exit with an error code; if you happen to catch it before /var/run/utmp is created you'll get that error - if you catch it after there won't be a runlevel record in there yet, so you'll get unknown I'm not entirely sure why you're grepping for we go into S from another runlevel, going into the S runlevel (single-user mode) does not invoke anything in rcS.d -- rc1.d is used to do that. I could not find any mention of apparmor in /etc/rc1.d This also doesn't cope with another possibility, that you *boot* into single-user mode. In this case runlevel will output (after finishing rcS.d and running sulogin) N S ie. you entered single-user mode (the S runlevel) directly, without a previous runlevel. Now what happens if you enter rc2 ? Your runlevel output will be: S 2 ie. you entered runlevel 2 from single-user mode. (Booting directly into multi-user mode, you would get N 2 because you booted directly into it - you don't go via single-user to get there) It also occurs to me that this script is incredibly brittle anyway, because it doesn't account for the fact that apparmor may fail to load any profiles. If that happens, you may end up looping forever in S40networking waiting for apparmor profiles to appear. I think this is what happened to Tim. ** Package changed: upstart (Ubuntu) = dhcp3 (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: dhcp3 (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Triaged -- Karmic Boot hangs at Configuring network interfaces https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/399954 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to dhcp3 in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
