[12:47] For Linux' [12:47] With a new installer [12:47] ui [12:47] and a crappy watered down control panel [12:47] I guess I could check it out and add it to the BinaryDriverHowto [12:47] hat sich schon jemand geopfert? :) [12:48] But that would require effort [12:48] was that german?

[12:58] And then run it? [12:58] better is [12:58] also remove fglrx from /etc/modules and switch the config file back to "ati" [12:59] the reboot and then try ;) === sirukin [~sirukin@64.247.151.242] has joined #kubuntu [01:02] Hmm [01:02] Why don't I just leave the xorg.conf there [01:03] I suspect the installer will make me a new conf file anyway [01:04] Should I "Install Driver" or "Generate Distribution Specific Driver Package" ? [01:05] the first [01:05] What installation path should I pick? [01:05] path? [01:06] are we on windows, or what? [01:06] so / should work, correct? [01:06] no idea [01:07] It won't generate a Debian package during the "Install Driver" phase [01:07] And I don't think the one it generated will work [01:08] it should just compile the module and put it inst /li/modules/... [01:08] +b [01:09] Let's see if it works [01:09] It only lets me generate XFree86 4.1 and 4.2 drivers [01:10] Won't even work for Debian Sarge [01:10] lol.... === kakalto [~kakalto@wired-210-54-56-169.ps.net.nz] has joined #kubuntu [01:10] I think the xorg-driver-fglrx package just needs to be reworked [01:11] force a dependency on linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r) [01:11] etc. [01:11] that's imho not the problem [01:11] the problem is, that installing fglrx is one part, getting it to work another [01:12] Yeah [01:12] ..and this other part fails..... "sometimes" [01:12] And the BinaryDriverHowto doesn't really help then [01:12] powernowd does not work correctly.. but I want to keep the package installed.. wasn't there a file to put module names that should be ignored/not loaded (powernow-k8)? [01:12] I had to switch to the k7 kernel to get that to work [01:12] blueyed: in which way doesn't work? [01:12] the 386 kernel I absolutely could not get the drivers working on [01:13] amd64? [01:13] it gives errors "transition frequency failed".. [01:13] KaiL: amd64, but hoary-i386 [01:13] so should work as it does here (Sempron) [01:13] it does this from starting on or only some time later? [01:13] I filed a bug about this even before hoary release. [01:14] from the beginning (in demsg) and everytime cpu raises.. [01:14] it seems to stall at 1GhZ here. [01:14] ...and the CPU stays in high state? [01:14] oops [01:14] no, low. [01:14] here it sometimes sits at 1,8 and only goes down after a reboot [01:15] could you try the kernel 2.6.12? :) === Octane [octane@dsl092-100-149.nyc2.dsl.speakeasy.net] has joined #kubuntu [01:15] With hoary?

[01:15] yall think kubuntu 5.04 will work with pice express geforce [01:15] Huh, I was referring to the k7 for ati drivers [01:15] Yeah, should work with an Nvidia card [01:15] nmorse: oh ;) [01:15] Better than ATI at least [01:16] ATI is the devil when it comes to linux support [01:16] on breezy- and hoary-amd64 I've used the k8 kernel.. it was the same. [01:16] I've stuck with them for over a year now and really wish I hadn't [01:16] Octane: for shure in 2D, not shure if we need fresher drivers for 3D [01:16] nmorse tell me about it i just built a new box and had to do away with a 9700 [01:16] KaiL i just want it to work initially out of the box then ill upgrade [01:16] What'd you do with the 9700? [01:16] because fc3 _definitely_ doesnt work with my new pci-express nvidia card [01:16] nmorse sitting right next to me [01:17] FC3 doesn't work much [01:17] Octane: the system shouldn't even see, that it's a PCIe one?!?

[01:18] 64bit stuff still seams to be a bit unstable [01:18] blueyed: nv for testing [01:19] we don't have "linux-restricted-modules" for the 2.6.12 for now, even as it's not even final [01:19] I'll try it, KaiL. But want to first compile krusader. [01:19] Compile Krusader? [01:19] It's in the apt repo, isn't it? [01:19] why not from universe? [01:20] ...new version I guess [01:20] yes.. it's only 1.51.. and the deb on krusader hp is build with newer libc etc [01:21] the one in breezy is even worse: gcc4 [01:22] That's the downside of repos.. [01:23] KaiL: do you have a clue why "apt-get upgrade" wants to "upgrade" the openssh-server which I've build with apt-source and patched? [01:23] because it just has a higher version number [01:24] apt-get upgrade -s might tell you more [01:26] it should have the _same_ version number..

[10:17] if you don't need/want calendar/diary/notes/todo, etc.... [10:17] no idea :) [10:18] arthurb: I believe kmail is in kontact in KDE now [10:19] It is [10:19] Not wholly though [10:19] One can use it on its own [10:19] right === osh [~osh@81-231-230-175-no21.tbcn.telia.com] has joined #kubuntu [10:25] I have an old ~/Mail/ from kmail, where should I put it now ? === tuni [~tuni@AFontenayssB-151-1-46-57.w82-121.abo.wanadoo.fr] has joined #kubuntu === duende [~duende@stjhnf01bb8-142162190162.nl.aliant.net] has joined #kubuntu [10:29] nevermind found it [10:34] <\sh> anybody knows something about kdebluetooth?

[10:46] yeah, the us mirrors [10:46] hmm [10:47] as per the unofficial starter guide [10:47] yesterday I tested the new ATI driver installer, but I used the ncurses one [10:47] and they worked since I installed, just broken now :-/ [10:47] I should try the GUI installer [10:47] That would be better for adding to the BinaryDriverHowto anyway [10:48] the fglrx driver is not much better than the free driver [10:48] I used to have it [10:48] and I was surprised when I switched to the free one... same fps on glxgears [10:48] It's much better for a 9500+ [10:48] I have no 3D at all without it [10:48] 9600 SE [10:48] oh [10:48] it's 9000 for me [10:49] Yeah, the 9000 has great DRI support [10:49] only the transparency suxs [10:49] i've got a problem with the network [10:49] the free Driver supports all cards up to 9250. [10:49] I think I'm going to try the new GUI installer [10:49] arthurb: did you set EnablePageFlip? [10:49] I haven't put the fglrx driver on my laptop yet, and I have the 320M IGP [10:49] well, indeed xcomposite sucks with the free driver and crashes with the binary [10:49] it's shows me the workgroup but only I am in it :( [10:49] KaiL: x'plain how ! [10:49] nmorse: IGP is another driver afaik [10:49] xcomposite's normal composite manager should never be used [10:50] arthurb: a line for the Section "Device" [10:50] Option "EnablePageFlip" "true" [10:50] The IGP is supported according to ati.com [10:50] arthurb: gives some more fps here [10:51] anyone else here have the IGP 320M? [10:51] i've got a problem with the network [10:51] i've got a problem with the network [10:51] it's shows me the workgroup but only I am in it :( [10:51] Using the "ati" driver I'm only getting 191 FPS in glxgears [10:51] can anyone help me? [10:52] fglrxinfo?? [10:52] nmorse: software.. [10:52] what's showing fglrxinfo? [10:52] nmorse, the igp 320m stinks, i never ran linux with mine, so I'm not sure if it's supported by any 3D drivers or not.. === _rick [~rick@adsl-ull-96-182.42-151.net24.it] has joined #kubuntu [10:53] Err, never ran Xfree/Xorg.

[10:55] I have /dev/hdb /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 ro,user,noauto 0 0 but it seems to cause problem to kde [10:56] liz4rd: I don't have it anymore, and I run kubuntu in vmware now if you're wondering. [10:57] If you mean video-card wise, I have a GF4 Ti4200 now. [10:59] cool [10:59] Oh my god it's so coool !! A nigerian widow just offered me a few million $ !! [10:59] I really hate ATI [11:00] hum yeah, kmail lacks a spam filter [11:00] They don't supplyl drivers for IGP's for Windows, right [11:00] how do i add an account in kmail? [11:00] They do [11:00] The latest catalyst, tucked away on their site, has the driver. [11:00] But Rome: Total War gets a black background when I try to play it [11:00] No pixel shaders or vertex shaders. [11:00] Tried to update, says go to eMachines [11:00] That's the problem [11:01] eMachines says Windows Update [11:01] Windows Update says first you have to get SP2 [11:01] SP2 borks laptop === nxv__ [~nxv_@dsl-084-056-107-090.arcor-ip.net] has joined #kubuntu [11:01] Good thing I already had Ubuntu installed [11:01] No pixel shaders? [11:01] Man, I hate ATI [11:01] agreed [11:01] The IGP line is really old. [11:02] At least the 3xx [11:02] It's equvilant to a Radeon VE/7000 [11:03] Well, with the ati driver included in X.org I get about 1/4 of my Radeon 9600 SE's fps in glxgears [11:03] The SE gets about 1/3 of the XT's [11:04] I don't think they like their customers much [11:05] Oh well, I'll stick to the ati driver in x.org for now and for the forseeable future [11:05] and switch my desktop to Nvidia ASAP [11:06] You know, despite using no swap, memory fills up at about 1/1000 the rate Gentoo did on the same machine [11:06] It's using 50MB more than it was last night, whereas gentoo would use about 600 [11:06] so more like 1/12 [11:09] OMG!...cheese === kman___ [~kman@p5.pub.ro] has joined #kubuntu === apollo2011 [~ksut@69.37.227.250.adsl.snet.net] has joined #kubuntu [11:18] The ubuntu mirror must be down because I can't install some packages and it won't update the package info [11:19] <\sh> apollo2011: gb?
