[02:55] <bdale> installation 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?
[02:59] <jdub> bdale: hrm, those are the "gdm/x did not start" dialogues
=== Keybuk [~scott@canonical.conference]  has joined #ubuntu
[03:01] <jdub> bdale: utf-8 problems with dialog
[03:01] <jdub> (most likely)
[03:03] <fabbione> only gdm
[03:04] <fabbione> X doesn't display any dialog that it cannot start
[03:04] <fabbione> it just doesn't
[03:04] <fabbione> bdale can you investigate why X didn't start?
[03:33] <whiprush> I just had the same problem as bdale yesterday
[03:34] <whiprush> I had to manually add my driver to the XF86Config
[03:35] <whiprush> I had the same garbled text dialogs also.
[03:35] <fabbione> whiprush: which driver was written in the config file?
[03:35] <fabbione> apm?
[03:35] <whiprush> The entire line was missing.
[03:35] <fabbione> ah
[03:35] <whiprush> iirc.
[03:35] <whiprush> Lemme check the backup.
[03:35] <fabbione> yes thanks
[03:36] <whiprush> yep, you're correct, apm.
[03:36] <fabbione> ok which version of X are you running?
[03:37] <whiprush> Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-6ubuntu4
[03:37] <whiprush> that's my xserver-xfree86
[03:37] <fabbione> ok.. it is already fixed in ubutu5
=== whiprush updates
[03:37] <fabbione> known bug :-)
[03:37] <fabbione> it's not in the archive yet
[03:37] <whiprush> woo.
[03:37] <fabbione> it is probably building
[03:38] <whiprush> quick 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 of
[03:38] <fabbione>     autodetection would cause the script to think it had detected one X server
[03:38] <fabbione>     or XFree86 video driver instead ($(echo "" | wc -l) is "1", not "0").
[03:39] <fabbione> whiprush: 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 well
[03:39] <whiprush> ok.
[03:58] <jdub> hey hey wh

[05:36] <seb128> rburton, have you seen this bug http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=148028 ?
[05:36] <seb128> read the last comment if you can
[05:37] <mjg59> Is there anyone around who can test a vino package for me in a couple of minutes?
[05:53] <jdub> mjg59: for warty?
[05:53] <mjg59> jdub: Built against unstable, so ought to work fine in warty
[05:53] <jdub> ok
[05:53] <mjg59> I only have a single machine here, so I want to make sure that it's actually serving properly without resorting to multiple X servers
[05:53] <jdub> source?
[05:54] <mjg59> Do you want source or is a deb fine?
[05:54] <jdub> deb-src
[05:54] <rburton> mjg59, just vncclient to localhost
[05:54] <rburton> fun for all the family
[05:54] <jdub> *pain*
[05:54] <mjg59> rburton: Doesn't that go horribly wrong?
[05:54] <rburton> no
[05:54] <rburton> its like looking in a reflection of a reflection
[05:55] <mjg59> jdub: It's in http://www.codon.org.uk/~mjg59/tmp/
=== thom blinks gently at jdub
[06:00] <jdub> mjg59: building
[06:00] <mjg59> Rock
[06:01] <jdub> vino totally needs a nicon
[06:01] <jdub> when a connection is open
[06:01] <mjg59> notification area action
[06:02] <rburton> totally
[06:02] <rburton> i poked mark about this already
[06:02] <rburton> the sharer knows when someone connects but not when they disconnect
[06:03] <mjg59> You guys are having a notification area by default, right?
[06:04] <daniels> yah
[06:06] <jdub> mjg59: works here
[06:06] <mjg59> jdub: Rock
[06:06] <mjg59> I'll upload it, then
[06:06] <jdub> mjg59: just looked at 1280x800 screen from 800x600 screen ;)
[06:07] <mjg59> Is that hideously broken laptop still around?>
[06:07] <mjg59> If so, could someone dump the DSDT and send it to me?
[06:11] <jdub> which one?
[06:13] <jdub> mjg59: didn't seem to start the session when i turned it on in the prefs dialogue?
[06:13] <mjg59> jdub: It won't
[06:13] <jdub> "oh"
[06:13] <mjg59> If it's installed, the default session will run it
[06:13] <mjg59> Otherwise you need to add it by hand
[06:14] <jdub> so the prefs panel won't even run it?
[06:26] <daniels> jdub: the c3, dude
[06:28] <mjg59> Sorry, yeah, the c3
[06:29] <jdub> hrm, dunno where it is atm
[06:36] <mjg59> No urgency

[11:13] <bdale> elmo around?  HP crowd is trying to help get alioth back online and could use help.
[11:14] <lamont> elmo is off at a talk
[11:15] <lamont> he played taxi driver to a LUG or something - kinda expected back no sooner than 15 minutes ago... If I see him, I'll point him this way.
[11:16] <bdale> k, the machine is back to the point that taggart sort of has control of it... not sure what the issues are, but he's looking for help
[11:19] <lamont> ok.
=== lamont wanders
[11:48] <bdale> jdub: finally looked at the ITX box... had the driver 'apm' scribbled in the X config...
[11:50] <bdale> jdub: changing that to 'via' and kicking gdm helped a lot
