[12:07] <lamont> or does it make more sense to put it in SASL_README?  hrm.
[12:07] <Kamion> 23:53 < Kamion> though Easter will probably reduce response time
[12:07] <Kamion> er, I meant "increase response time". make worse. whatever.
[12:08] <trappist> I like README.Debian, if only because I'm probably not the first person to peek at /usr/share/doc/postfix and think to install postfix-doc, and probably most postfix users (who are actually setting up mailservers) will want the sasl goodness

[12:14] <lamont> 6.  TLS/SASL support is enabled, but sasl2-bin and libsasl2-modules are not
[12:14] <lamont>     installed by default.  See also /usr/share/doc/postfix/SASL_README.gz in 
[12:14] <lamont>     the postfix-doc package.
[12:15] <lamont> +For Debian and Debian-derived distributions, the simplest way to enable SASL
[12:15] <lamont> +support is to install the (suggested) sasl2-bin and libsasl2-modules packages:
[12:15] <lamont> +  apt-get install sasl2-bin libsasl2-modules

[12:40] <mdke_> Kamion, just tried the install cd (F6), tried to resize my ntfs partition, entered 4 GB as the size, it kicked out and took me back to the screen with no changes and no error message. I tried 8 GB, it worked. known?

[12:41] <Kamion> not known to me at least
[12:41] <mdke_> the bug is the lack of error, presumably I have more than 4 GB on the partition or something
[12:41] <Kamion> file a bug on partman-partitioning please
[12:41] <mdke_> Kamion, what can I attach?
[12:41] <Kamion> it might be a duplicate; I intend to go through partman's use of ntfsresize before dapper, but haven't had time yet
[12:41] <Kamion> mdke_: /var/log/syslog and /var/log/partman from the installer
[12:41] <mdz> Kamion: it looks like product bug contacts don't work like package bug contacts; there can be only one
[12:41] <mdke_> Kamion, ok thanks.
[12:42] <mdz> there wasn't one, and I added myself because I wanted to be copied on bugs
[12:42] <Kamion> mdz: that wasn't the case until very recently
[12:42] <Kamion> I'm sure
[12:42] <mdz> I wonder if the registrant is copied by default, and I'm suppressing that
[12:42] <Kamion> or maybe not actually
[12:42] <Kamion> I guess it was just "Launchpad Developers"
[12:42] <mdke_> Kamion, do I need to copy those logs now, or do they exist after I complete installation?
[12:42] <mdz> Kamion: that's the registrant

[01:41] <lifeless> its a source of packages

[04:28] <bddebian> Gah, it takes forever to build :-(
[04:29] <infinity> Well, "it fails on dh_shlibdeps" doesn't mean much without some output to go with it.

[05:32] <infinity> Right, well that seems pretty self-evident to me.
[05:32] <bddebian> But I don't know where the fsck that /usr/lib/dx/bin/dx path is coming from?
[05:34] <infinity> From debian/dx.install?
[05:34] <bddebian> These are the only 3 lines I added and it builds fine without these:
[05:34] <bddebian>        dh_install -pdx debian/dxicon.xpm usr/share/pixmaps
[05:34] <bddebian>         dh_install -pdx debian/dx.desktop usr/share/applications
[05:34] <bddebian>         dh_desktop
[05:34] <Chipzz> bddebian: does debian/dx.desktop refer to /usr/lib/dx/bin/dx maybe?
[05:35] <bddebian> Yes, that path is in dx.install but why would it work without those three lines?
[05:35] <Chipzz> maybe dh_install does a sanity check on your desktop file
[05:35] <Chipzz> and if your desktop file is broken
[05:35] <Chipzz> it can't copy a file that's not there?
[05:36] <bddebian> bdefreese@archive:~/devel/dx/dx-4.3.2/debian$ desktop-file-validate dx.desktop
[05:36] <bddebian> bdefreese@archive:~/devel/dx/dx-4.3.2/debian$
[05:36] <Chipzz> I meant broken wrt the path of the dx exe
[05:36] <infinity> bddebian: Why are you calling dh_install twice?
[05:39] <infinity> Oh, nevermind, I see the problem.
[05:39] <infinity> bddebian: Or, maybe I don't.
[05:40] <infinity> bddebian: I'd have to see your rules file.  I'm just fumbling in the dark without it.
[05:41] <bddebian> Of course now saying this, I don't know why I didn't just put them in dx.install anyway

[08:29] <lamont> ah, right
[08:29] <lamont> yeah... it does at that

[09:58] <infinity> Kamion: Also, your console-data upload is FTBFS on all arches with PC kemaps (so, everywhere but powerpc)
[09:59] <sivang> infinity: that could add support for the T/X/60's ? :)
[09:59] <infinity> sivang: In the non-free driver, yes.
[09:59] <infinity> sivang: We may also manage to shoehorn in support in the free driver before release, but that'll still be another week or two of fiddling.
[10:00] <sivang> infinity: I see, yes, I've asked mjg59 and he said that would have to be fiddling with the mode changes code or so.
[10:01] <mvo> sivang: the x60s run all with the i810 driver AFAIK

[10:19] <janimo> pitti, are all those shipped in ubuntu/kubuntu/edubuntu?

[10:32] <janimo> you answered the guy asking about persistence on xubuntu cd

[10:33] <Kamion> leo__: sure, you should be able to preseed debian-installer/locale and kbd-chooser/method, shouldn't be much else that gets asked
[10:33] <Mithrandir> janimo: yes, but that was a "about this time" not as in "this second".  Kamion probably knows the exact state.
[10:33] <pitti> doko: if the po file is broken in a way that msgfmt cannot build a mo file from it, then I agree, langpack-o-matic should just ignore it
[10:34] <janimo> Mithrandir: ok, actually infinity is in charge, wil be done by beta

[11:56] <pitti> MidMark: no, we never change passwords
[11:56] <dholbach> Mithrandir: thanks, will change that
[11:56] <MidMark> pitti: probably was my fault, it's strange, but possible...
[11:57] <pitti> MidMark: hm, if you boot in rescue mode and change your password with 'passwd yourlogin' to a known good value again, can you login again?
[11:57] <Riddell> pitti: http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/657295
[11:57] <pitti> MidMark: please, before you do that, make a copy of /etc/shadow and /etc/passwd to compare afterwards
[11:58] <dholbach> Mithrandir: done
[11:58] <pitti> Riddell: thanks
[11:58] <MidMark> pitti: now I login with my old user and new password (that is why I cannot login) and changed the two password, now all is ok again, but I don't know why I wanted to change the password of my new user and instead I have changed passw of my existing user
[11:59] <MidMark> pitti: don't know if is it clear...
[12:00] <pitti> MidMark: AFAIUI that was just a confusion due to in advertedly changing the wrong user's password, and no bug then?

[12:05] <mdke> seb128, thanks, lemme know if you want to do anything. Also, I remember seeing a bug on gedit about using the gnome system-wide monospace font, did that get rejected?

[12:10] <Riddell> pitti: recompiling from your cups source gets rid of the segfault
[12:11] <pitti> Riddell: cool
[12:12] <MidMark> kde-bug: I have created a new user (I have kubuntu) with kde: users and groups and clicked ok, then I have clicked again to my new user, go to password, and set a new password, then I clicked to my existing user (another one) and the tool remember that I was in password changing part AND ALSO remember the password that I have typed in the previuos user, so I think I have clicked OK (instead of Cancel) and the program changed
[12:14] <MidMark> pitti, Riddel: is it enough clear? I have tried another time and it is exactly like this

[01:30] <mdke> by the way, is it worth filing bugs for the font changes in firefox/epiphany recently? or are these intentional?
[01:32] <giftnudel> mdke: were they dejavu and are now different?
[01:33] <mdke> giftnudel, i have no idea, they are suddenly ugly. previously they were similar to breezy, I think
[01:33] <giftnudel> mdke: look here http://blogs.gnome.org/view/jamesh/2006/04/06/0 , this might be related
[01:34] <Treenaks> That page still has weird ligatures, though my fonts are set to the defaults now
[01:35] <mdke> giftnudel, I don't understand it enough. All I know is that everything is ugly :/
[01:35] <mdke> so, it's a bug, rather than intentional?
[01:36] <giftnudel> I think the switch was intentional, but the result not
[01:39] <jamesh> mdke: what does "fc-match sans-serif" print?
[01:40] <mdke> jamesh, DejaVuSans.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Book"
[01:40] <Treenaks> DejaVuSans.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Book"
[01:40] <jamesh> mdke: what sort of ugly are you talking about, btw?
[01:40] <Treenaks> jamesh: Very badly antialiased fonts, too high, and not wide enough (or of the right height, but not wide enough)
[01:41] <mdke> jamesh, just poor readability
[01:41] <mdke> yeah, what Treenaks says
[01:42] <jamesh> but different to what is described here? https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/37828
[01:42] <Ubugtu> Malone bug 37828 in firefox "Text rendered incorrectly in presence of ligatures and justified text" [Normal,Unconfirmed]  
[01:42] <giftnudel> dejavu has an issue with ligatures (special characters for combinations like ft which should provide better readability) 
[01:42] <giftnudel> which is the bug ...
[01:43] <jamesh> giftnudel: more specifically, firefox has an issue with ligatures and DejaVu provides ligature OpenType tables ...
[01:43] <giftnudel> oh, ok
[01:43] <mdke> i don't know what ligatures are
[01:43] <giftnudel> my explanation abovE?
=== mdke looks
[01:43] <Treenaks> jamesh: http://www.xs4all.nl/~mvdstree/screenshot.png
[01:44] <Treenaks> jamesh: yes, it's different from 37828
[01:44] <mdke> yes, different to that
[01:44] <mdke> the fonts are simply too high, and poorly focused
[01:45] <jamesh> mdke: a ligature is a single glyph that represents multiple characters
[01:46] <jamesh> mdke: e.g. there are glyphs in the DejaVu Sans font to represent the character sequences ff, fi, ffi, fl, ffl
[01:46] <mdke> my problem is quite well represented by Treenaks' screenshot, I don't have problems with character sequences
[01:48] <Treenaks> mdke: http://blogs.gnome.org/view/jamesh/2006/04/06/0 does have the 37828 problem for me (in the word 'verified', for example)
[01:48] <mdke> i'll do my own screenshot
[01:48] <Treenaks> jamesh: ^^
[01:49] <mdke> Treenaks, i don't see that bug.
[01:49] <jamesh> Treenaks: sure.  The theme there uses the default sans-serif font with justified text
[01:49] <jamesh> which is enough to trigger rendering problems on dapper
[01:50] <Treenaks> jamesh: hmm.. it uses standard 'sans-serif'? what does planet use then?
[01:50] <mdke> http://www.mdke.org/images/badfonts.png
[01:50] <jamesh> Treenaks: the default sans-serif font with left aligned text

[02:30] <pitti> Riddell: mh21 also told me about a list of other things that need to be cleaned up (like restarting cups, starting/stopping printers, etc.)

[02:34] <Riddell> sure, but I need to upload kdelibs anyway so no hard in slightly un-breaking stuff while I'm at it
[02:38] <enrico> Riddell: the new debtags already does it
[02:38] <enrico> otherwise, you'll have to patch libapt-front
[02:38] <Riddell> enrico: right, suspected that might be the case, thanks
[02:38] <enrico> the fetcher used, BTW, is the one from libapt-pkg
[02:39] <Riddell> yeah, I saw that

[02:45] <enrico> Kamion: thanks

[03:27] <bddebian> Heya folks
[03:28] <Riddell> pitti: imlib 2 seems quite different, kdegraphics doesn't compile with it

=== ivoks [n=ivoks@ubuntu/member/ivoks]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
[03:42] <Kamion> mvo: I haven't approved it yet because as I said yesterday I don't especially like the version number; you're calling it FOO~backport1 when the source package is very different from version FOO
[03:42] <Kamion> generally anything identifying as "backport" should be pretty much the same as the backported thing
[03:43] <mvo> ok
[03:43] <mvo> I'll rename it ~breezy1 and reupload?
[03:43] <Kamion> is it intentionally very different?
[03:43] <mvo> yes
[03:43] <mvo> the complete SoftwareProperties code remains the old code, because the interaction between the it and synaptic changed in dapper
[03:43] <mvo> and I don't want to mess around there
[03:44] <mvo> so the complete SoftwareProperties/ part is essentially 0.37, but the UpdateManager/ bits are from 0.41

[03:45] <mvo> *cough*
[03:45] <mvo> right
[03:45] <Kamion> that looks wrong :) and 6.04 should be 6.06 now
[03:45] <mvo> :)
[03:45] <Kamion> also the filename "ReleaseAnnouncement" is misspelt - dunno how hard that is to fix
[03:46] <Kamion> (as Anouncement

[04:40] <janimo> doko, about how much space does OOo take up on the install CD?
[04:40] <janimo> is openoffice.org by itself enough for a working install?
[04:40] <janimo> I see there are other recommended packages
[04:42] <doko> janimo: $ apt-cache show openoffice.org-core|grep ^Size
[04:42] <doko> Size: 29659168
[04:42] <janimo> doko, so -core package is enough for a working install?
[04:42] <doko> you have to do that for all related packages, probably you'll arrive at about 80MB
[04:42] <janimo> ah
[04:43] <doko> you may want to include openoffice.org-gcj
[04:43] <janimo> so 80M, does that include the gtk interface?
[04:43] <doko> $ apt-cache show openoffice.org-gnome|grep ^Size
[04:43] <doko> Size: 207354
[04:43] <janimo> doko, I don;t know much about OOo, just thinking it may be good to put in on xubuntu CD if there is space left
[04:43] <doko> sure
[04:43] <janimo> doko, does that in turn bring all gnome libs in not just gtk right?
[04:44] <janimo> the description mentions g-vfs
[04:44] <janimo> hmm, yes

[04:45] <janimo> is it really ugly without the gtk stuff?
[04:45] <mdke> I'd like to file a bug about vi being the default text editor: what package handles those defaults?
=== Loevborg [n=loevborg@d6-8.dip.axsp.de]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
[04:46] <Treenaks> mdke: the packages themselves do, using the alternatives system
[04:46] <janimo> doko, would I also need the trasnsitional packages which are in ubuntu ship seed?
[04:46] <mdke> Treenaks, so it's a bug in "vim"?
[04:47] <Treenaks> mdke: no, it's a feature ;)
[04:47] <Treenaks> imho
[04:47] <pitti> vim++
[04:47] <pitti> :)
[04:47] <doko> janimo: you would save 190 bytes per package ;-P
[04:47] <mdke> Treenaks, oh please.
[04:47] <Treenaks> mdke: Dropping to the shell is a bug. Not being able to cope with the shell is not a bug.
[04:47] <mdke> vim may be good, but it's not a good default
[04:47] <janimo> doko, I know :) but is it needed for some update scenario?
[04:48] <janimo> anyway I'll put htose then if OOo goes on the cd
[04:48] <mdke> Treenaks, that's dreamland, as you know. There is a middle ground between those two things
[04:48] <Treenaks> mdke: fix the problem, not hack the solution
[04:48] <doko> sure, for update from breezy
[04:48] <janimo> ok
[04:49] <mdke> Treenaks, right now, there is no gui to handle cron, that I know of. it's a common thing for a new user to drop to the command line and edit the crontab. Now, the new user has to learn vim basics to do it
[04:49] <mdke> that doesn't make a lot of sense
[04:49] <Treenaks> mdke: How do you know it's a common thing?
[04:49] <Treenaks> mdke: Most new users I've seen don't know cron _exists_
[04:50] <Treenaks> mdke: and there's gnome-schedule
[04:50] <mdke> Treenaks, because we're often asked to deal with it in the guide. Especially doing a command on each boot
[04:50] <janimo> Kamion, are livecd mem requirements >128M now?
[04:50] <Kamion> janimo: I have no idea offhand
[04:50] <mdke> Treenaks, anyway, that is one example of many. There are loads of command line tasks that intermediate users want to know, without having to learn ":wq" to do it
[04:50] <Kamion> mdke: I'm sure we always intended the default editor to be nano, and I'm sure it used to be nano too
[04:51] <janimo> ok, since ogra said people run it on 256M in the context of talking about low mem :)
[04:51] <Treenaks> mdke: tell them to 'nano blah'
[04:51] <mdke> Kamion, yeah, it was
[04:51] <Treenaks> mdke: problem solved
[04:51] <ogra> janimo, yes, but i wanted to hear if 256M is low or not :)
[04:51] <mdke> Treenaks, no... because lots of programs use the default editor, without you calling the name of the editor on the command line
[04:51] <ogra> seamms nobody measured the minimal requirements yet
[04:51] <mdke> crontab is an example, there are others
[04:51] <janimo> ogra, 256M is a lot :)
[04:51] <mdke> Kamion, so do I file the bug on "nano"?
[04:52] <Kamion> mdke: dunno whether nano or vim is at fault, but I suppose nano is a good start
[04:52] <mdke> Kamion, alright. Thanks!
[04:52] <ogra> janimo, 256M is the smalles "normal" machine i have around here (the smaller ones are thin client hardware without local CDRom)
[04:52] <bddebian> Yeah, that "bug" blows
=== bddebian hugs his nano
[04:53] <Kamion> you can always boot with mem=128M or whatever to test
[04:53] <janimo> ogra, the machines around here are 64, 192 and 512 all with cds. I'd still prefer 256 to not be considered low ;)
[04:53] <Kamion> don't have to actually pull out memory sticks
[04:53] <janimo> sure
[04:53] <janimo> or qemu
[04:53] <Yagisan> ogra: I have a box here with 112MB
[04:54] <ogra> Yagisan, as a "non thin client" ?
[04:54] <Kamion> if you have a box on which qemu is actually bearably fast, more power to you
[04:54] <Yagisan> ogra: not yet
[04:54] <ogra> heh
[04:54] <janimo> Kamion, actually is about as fast as the low-end machines that are to be emulated :)

[04:56] <bddebian> mdke: You haven't fixed that yet? :-)
[04:56] <janimo> although I'll need to try the qemu kernel accelerator sometime
[04:57] <pitti> mdke: hm, so vim is prio 20, vim-gtk/gnome is prio 40, nano is prio 40, too
[04:57] <pitti> mdke: did you get plain text mode vim, or gvim?
[04:57] <jjesse> vim is the default for kubuntu as well which i wish was nano
[04:57] <jjesse> it used to be nano for kubuntu
[04:57] <mdke> pitti, plain text. Just installed from flight 6 yesterday and upgraded.
[04:57] <pitti> hm, I get text mode vim here as well
[04:58] <jjesse> it threw me off when i tried to commit docs via svn and didn't remember the sequeence to quit vim :(
[04:58] <ogra> doesnt gvim fall back to vim if DISPLAY isnt set ? 
[04:58] <mdke> bddebian, I'm better at filing bugs than fixing them :/
[04:58] <bddebian> Heh

=== mhz [n=mhz_chil@moinmoin/fan/mhz]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
[05:02] <ogra> pitti, try "gvim ./blah.txt" on a console, it will complain about DISPLAY and fall back to vim ...
[05:02] <mdke> that must be the reason
[05:02] <pitti> ogra: no, 'command not found' :)
[05:02] <mdke> actually no
[05:02] <mdke> it isn't installed
[05:02] <ogra> oh, k
[05:02] <pitti> ogra: so, I don't have gvim installed, nano *should* be prefered *boggle*
[05:09] <Kamion> mvo: so, how does this startup notification thing work then?
[05:09] <Kamion> ideally without depending on gnome libraries, otherwise janimo will hurt me
[05:11] <mvo> Kamion: how is espresso currently started? both gksu and the panel support startup notification out of the box 
[05:11] <Kamion> is it just a matter of putting StartupNotify=true in the desktop file?
[05:11] <Kamion> desktop file
[05:11] <vuntz_> Kamion: it works this way in most of the cases, yes
[05:11] <Kamion> excellent, easy then
[05:11] <Kamion> does KDE support that too?
[05:11] <vuntz_> (at least for standard GTK+ apps)
[05:11] <vuntz_> I believe
[05:12] <Kamion> I thought it was a GNOME library that handled sending the remove message back to the WM
[05:12] <mvo> Kamion: how do you become root in espresso?
[05:12] <Keybuk> anyone need me for anything?  going to go back offline and carry on debugging this network issue
[05:13] <Kamion> mvo: gksudo in the desktop file, at least it will be once I go back to using gksudo (it was broken earlier, if you remember)
[05:13] <mdke> Keybuk, is it a bug if my network interfaces are named differently in dapper than in breezy (swapped)?
[05:13] <Riddell> Kamion: startup notification has been in KDE for years, you get a little bouncing mouse cursor
[05:13] <mdke> Keybuk, (they seem to work)
[05:14] <Kamion> Riddell: same method, StartupNotify=true in desktop file?
=== OculusAquilae [n=oculus@pD9508B1D.dip0.t-ipconnect.de]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
[05:14] <Riddell> Kamion: no, it's on by default for all programmes, I've not heard of that .desktop syntax before
[05:14] <Keybuk> mdke: not really, it means your /etc/iftab file wasn't correct in breezy
[05:15] <vuntz_> Riddell: it's in the spec :-)
[05:15] <Keybuk> I've asked mvo whether it'd be possible to fix that in the upgrade tool
[05:15] <mvo> Kamion: hm, if you use gksu, it should work out of the box now
[05:15] <vuntz_> " If true, it is KNOWN that the application will send a "remove" message when started with the DESKTOP_LAUNCH_ID environment variable set (see the Startup Notification Protocol Specification for more details)."
[05:15] <mvo> Keybuk: I haven't looked at it yet :/
[05:15] <Kamion> mvo: with or without StartupNotify=true in .desktop?
[05:15] <mdke> Keybuk, okay, thanks
[05:15] <mvo> Kamion: without
[05:15] <Keybuk> mvo: I suspect the easiest thing is to drop me an e-mail telling me where to put the code <g>
[05:15] <Kamion> ok, I'll test it
[05:15] <vuntz_> Riddell: KDE should definitely put this in the .desktop file if it doesn't do it
[05:16] <mvo> Kamion: I just rsynced the image, looking at it now
[05:16] <vuntz_> Riddell: GNOME won't use startup notification if the line is not there
[05:16] <mvo> Keybuk: yes that might be easiest :)
[05:17] <sivang> anybody in for a package review and sponsered upload to universe of a HUB that's ready tp be presented to users and testing? :)
[05:17] <Kamion> mvo: works, but it's a bit odd, the panel entry is "Grant Rights"
[05:18] <mvo> Kamion: if you use "gksu" instead of "sudo" in the desktop file it works for me
[05:18] <mvo> Kamion: oh

[05:19] <mvo> Kamion: well, gksu and gksudo really are the same on a current ubuntu system, we use a gconf key to make gksu behave like gksudo 
[05:20] <vuntz_> mvo, Kamion: use "--desktop %k" then :-)
[05:20] <Kamion> tried --desktop, still says "Grant Rights"
[05:20] <mvo> vuntz_: rock, that sounds cool

[07:35] <lemsx1> when /etc/environment sets up the console to UTF8, unicode_start will be called

[08:28] <sebpayne> and dist-upgraded to the latest stuff
[08:28] <sebpayne> and some of the wallpapers from the Examples folder have gone
[08:28] <sebpayne> is that on purpose?
[08:29] <Burgwork> sebpayne, they have moved into ubuntu-artwork
[08:29] <sebpayne> are they still installed?
[08:31] <mdke> sebpayne, yeah, it's on purpose.
[08:31] <sebpayne> mdke, thanks
[08:31] <sebpayne> mdke, just that they are no longer there and it seemed a nice touch
[08:32] <mdke> sebpayne, well the example-content stuff is for showing off programs, and wallpapers aren't examples for any programs
[08:32] <sebpayne> mdke, i see
[08:32] <sebpayne> mdke, is there the possiblity of a wallpapers pckage?
[08:33] <mdke> sebpayne, I personally hope so. the wallpapers haven't gone into ubuntu-artwork, at the moment
[08:33] <sebpayne> mdke, awesome, thanks
[08:33] <mdke> sebpayne, there is a gnome-backgrounds package, if someone were to make an ubuntu-backgrounds package, i think it would go down well
[08:33] <sebpayne> mdke, just something simple to get rid of the cranes

[09:51] <Tm_T> ohwell, there's always hammer
[09:53] <KaiL_> idea to make installing the proprietary drivers a bit more obvious (and so reduce questions, because people fail while installing the versions from the vendors):
[09:54] <KaiL_> if we detect an nvidia-card, install (not activate) nvidia-glx and add a script to enable it to the desktop
[09:54] <KaiL_> same for ATI fglrx, except there this scipt doesn't exist jet
[09:56] <Yagisan> KaiL_: would that be on every desktop ?
[09:56] <Yagisan> KaiL_: for all users ?
[09:56] <KaiL_> Yagisan, not on those with an intel-graphics chip ;)
[09:56] <KaiL_> the idea is just to show the users HOW to enable those drivers
[09:57] <KaiL_> and to avoid, that they try to install the drivers from nvidia.com or ati.com and fail
[09:57] <Yagisan> KaiL_: It's not something I'd like to pop up on my ubuntu ltsp client desktops, just because the server has an nvidia video card
[09:57] <Treenaks> What if I buy a new card, from a different manufactuerer?
[09:58] <KaiL_> Treenaks, for now that's a situation, that ubuntu doesn't handle at all
[09:58] <Yagisan> KaiL_: I personally think it should be enabled on install if possible
[09:58] <KaiL_> Yagisan, those drivers are very often not suspend save
[09:58] <KaiL_> not to forget the GPL-fanatics
[09:58] <Yagisan> KaiL_: I've never tried suspend, so I don't know.
[09:59] <KaiL_> i do it very often, esp. on laptops, as it's more or less the only thing, which fails
[10:00] <Yagisan> KaiL_: perhaps something that pops up on first reboot, like oem mode ?
[10:00] <KaiL_> Treenaks, normally at least parts of the xorg install config should be re-run on every reboot
[10:01] <KaiL_> I'd like to see an rather easy solution to do this after some testing - and btw. use the same way to DISable those drivers
[10:01] <KaiL_> another idea might be a menu entry for the enable/disable script
[10:01] <Yagisan> KaiL_: OK, System -> Administration -> Accelerated Video Drivers
[10:02] <KaiL_> yes, something like that
[10:02] <Yagisan> KaiL_: turns on/off nvidia/ati and anything else
[10:02] <KaiL_> for the first only switches ati/radeon <-> fglrx or nv <-> nvidia
[10:04] <KaiL_> currently problems while installing those drivers are one of the most common support problems
[10:04] <Yagisan> KaiL_: might need to be vesa <-> proprietary for some newer cards
[10:05] <KaiL_> Yagisan, nop. If we detect an ati-card, it'll be always the ati driver
[10:05] <KaiL_> if this doesn't work, there is a fallback planned, so it's not required to set vesa manually
[10:06] <Yagisan> KaiL_: even their current generation cards ? (my last ati was a 7200)
=== jono [n=jono@131.107.59.94]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
[10:07] <KaiL_> Yagisan, afaik the fallback is not implemented yet, but the config still sets a vendor related driver
[10:08] <KaiL_> I only don't know about matrox Parhelia, for which ubuntu doesn't ship the proprietary driver and the "mga" one will never handle them
=== Yagisan sighs. dbs-edit-patch failed.
[10:13] <KaiL_> ...ok, and at least flight4 used vesa for intel 915

[11:12] <Tm_T> well, 99% skip it but they asks it themself
[11:12] <Tm_T> trouble I mean
[11:13] <KaiL_> as I said - if they already tried to install the driver, it's to late

[11:16] <Tm_T> "I wan't that 'ok' button, I don't care how system works"
[11:16] <mdke> you guys might want to talk about this in #ubuntu-doc
