bdaleinstallation completed on the ITX system.  once it told me I should be ready to log in, it looked like maybe X was going to start, then I got faced with about 5 dialog boxes with unintelligible text.  hit enter to take defaults on all of them, now I'm back at a text login prompt.  le huh?02:55
jdubbdale: hrm, those are the "gdm/x did not start" dialogues02:59
=== Keybuk [~scott@canonical.conference] has joined #ubuntu
jdubbdale: utf-8 problems with dialog03:01
jdub(most likely)03:01
fabbioneonly gdm03:03
fabbioneX doesn't display any dialog that it cannot start03:04
fabbioneit just doesn't03:04
fabbionebdale can you investigate why X didn't start?03:04
whiprushI just had the same problem as bdale yesterday03:33
whiprushI had to manually add my driver to the XF86Config03:34
whiprushI had the same garbled text dialogs also.03:35
fabbionewhiprush: which driver was written in the config file?03:35
fabbioneapm?03:35
whiprushThe entire line was missing.03:35
fabbioneah03:35
whiprushiirc.03:35
whiprushLemme check the backup.03:35
fabbioneyes thanks03:35
whiprushyep, you're correct, apm.03:36
fabbioneok which version of X are you running?03:36
whiprushVersion: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-6ubuntu403:37
whiprushthat's my xserver-xfree8603:37
fabbioneok.. it is already fixed in ubutu503:37
=== whiprush updates
fabbioneknown bug :-)03:37
fabbioneit's not in the archive yet03:37
whiprushwoo.03:37
fabbioneit is probably building03:37
whiprushquick question, desktop bugs should go into your bugzilla right? Even if I see the behaviour on my sid box also? ie. They should be reported seperately right?03:38
fabbione  * Fix bug in xserver-xfree86 configuration script where failure of03:38
fabbione    autodetection would cause the script to think it had detected one X server03:38
fabbione    or XFree86 video driver instead ($(echo "" | wc -l) is "1", not "0").03:38
fabbionewhiprush: if you notice a bug in sid pleaase report it to Debian. If the same behaviour happens with warty, please let us know and we will track the bug as well03:39
