[04:55] I have it [04:56] ccooke, did you do something special? [04:56] The Add/Remove application's setting for which packages to display was blank (nothing selected) [04:56] This is after a new install [04:57] when I started it, then changed the Show setting, codecs are found [04:57] So, two errors here: [04:57] 1) On a new install, the Show selection can be blank (thus, nothing will be found) [04:58] Conferming this... even on the Live-cd I get this [04:58] 2) When this happens, the codec search app will suggest changing that setting, but neither give you access to it nor tell you where it is. === ccooke digs out his launchpad account [05:00] does anyone know what package the codec finder is in? === buzztracker [n=buzztrac@pelikan.garga.net] has joined #ubuntu+1 [05:00] yeah, let me check...

[05:01] right, it's in gnome-app-install [05:01] Carroarmato0: I asked package, not file. [05:02] Carroarmato0: it's okay, once I realised you meant that was the binary it was fine :-) [05:02] ^^ [05:07] ccooke, are you able to enable "Automatic Service Discovery" in "Network Settings"? [05:07] What "Network Settings"? [05:08] If you got "System-->Administration-->Network" you should find it [05:09] Then when you are in "Network Settings" you go to the "General" tab, and below is the service discovery... [05:10] Carroarmato0: I thought that's what you meant, but it doesn't have "Network Settings" in the menu [05:10] ? [05:10] Carroarmato0: And no, it's greyed out [05:11] Hmm could this be a bug? [05:11] In the menu, it's System -> Administration -> Network [05:11] Probably not. [05:11] Network Manager is the default tool for setting up new systems now, and it enables avahi itself [05:11] I'll bet if you make a static config, you'll be able to set the option [05:12] ... so you don't have to enable it then in the network configuration....? [05:12] Kinda confusing... and confusion isn't good, specially if you're a newbie! [05:13] System -> Administration -> Network is for manual configuration only, so it shouldn't be set there === onechard [n=chard@209.168.213.107] has joined #ubuntu+1 [05:14] So... what should I have to do if I'd say I wanted avahi to be disabled? [05:14] However, it seems I was wrong about it becoming workable if you have a non-roaming interface [05:15] If I go to configure network manager it sends me to the manual network configuration screen...

Hell I think it's a freaking demonstration of German superior coding! :) But I'm happy that everyone gets to chose how to manage their desktop.

I think it really sucks in many ways... And I'm actually quite surprized how much Kplayer sucks too! I mean it's KDE! Why the hell isn't their mediaplayer full of bling? [05:46] well, Kplayer is not KDE thing really [05:46] it's for KDE, it's not from KDE [05:47] How come the Kde team haven't come up with their own thing? [05:47] I use KMplayer [05:47] err, you mean Kaffeine? [05:47] and then there's Amarok [05:49] No, I think I was refering to KMplayer... but I think the interface could be worked on a little more...

[11:04] I have to state, that I did change the sources by hand once to try with dist-upgrade, which failed due to libc6 upgrade failing. [11:05] now I am wondering if some config file that was changed, makes update-manager think, it is already a gutsy system. === shadeofgrey [n=shadeofg@c-76-108-242-92.hsd1.fl.comcast.net] has left #ubuntu+1 [] === claydoh [n=claydoh@66-252-57-167.dyn-adsl.midmaine.net] has joined #ubuntu+1 === Kill_X [i=kill_x@91.22.81.124] has joined #ubuntu+1 [11:08] !info libpam-keyring | pwnguin [11:08] pwnguin: libpam-keyring: PAM module that unlock gnome keyring.

[11:11] yep [11:11] I never get past libc6 upgrade. [11:14] Tribe 4 wiki page recommends to upgrade from feisty with "update-manager -d". When I use that, I don't even get the release upgrade dialog. === linxeh [n=linx@88-96-202-38.dsl.zen.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu+1 [11:17] hmmm, I remember someone else needing another flag, but i cant remember which one, maybe c... [11:17] did work some time, but not this time. [11:18] and still libc6 upgrade fails when I do this by hand [11:18] even with sudo dpkg -i --force-all [11:18] A non-dpkg owned copy of the C library was found in /lib/tls. [11:19] hmm [11:19] humbolt: did you by chance use easyubuntu? [11:20] or install from source? === astro76 [n=james@unaffiliated/astro76] has joined #ubuntu+1 [11:20] no [11:21] what that means is that there's a file in /lib/tls that dpkg knows is there, but doesnt know WHY [11:21] and since it doesnt know why, it wont replace it for fear of breaking something else [11:22] this is due to the fact the in order to upgrade, apt has to remove the old version from its DB but unlike with other packages, it can't remove the files, because this would break the system. [11:22] its possible that a) a broken package forgot to register this file b) another program installed that library there, or c) a problem with apt's DB [11:22] or d) what you just mentioned [11:22] so, what to do? [11:22] report the bug in launchpad [11:23] especially dpkg -i --force-all does not work [11:23] that'll get the appropriate people's attention [11:24] Did anybody here install Gutsy alternate CD on Intel graphics? [11:25] My display goes weird during install, both in tribe 3 and in tribe 4 [11:26] albert23: my tribe 2 was fine [11:27] jussi01: what type of Intel graphics do you have? I have GM965 [11:27] min is just a standard 915 [11:28] I have seen a few bugs already for 945, 950 and 965. Wondering if anyone found a trick to get the display right again [11:29] btw, I did complete the installs blindly, just pressing enter a few times, and now it runs fine [11:30] albert23: are you the envy maintainer? [11:30] ok, destroyed my system again, by force installing libc6-i686 without prior getting libc6 installed properly. [11:31] pwnguin: sorry, no [11:31] albert23: no problem [11:31] now any new app started produces a segfault === ompaul [n=ompaul@freenode/staff/gnewsense.ompaul] has joined #ubuntu+1 [11:32] humbolt: that would be the normal result of --forcing things [11:32] espectially surrounding libc === jussi01 advises a nice fresh install [11:33] hopefully you've got backups and are experimenting with how to break/fix it [11:33] I know.

[11:38] I can't find the font applet in gutsy to change the fonts either [11:38] i'm guessign different freetype settings [11:38] also, why are we including xterm and uxterm in addition to gnome-terminal? [11:39] tale_ font settings are in appearance now [11:39] ah [11:39] pwnguin: that is lots of people [11:40] who is?

[11:42] pwnguin: oh ok then [11:42] Anyone else unable to use ttys? [11:43] voidmage: black screens?

[11:44] actually, the tty's work fine, I can login. Just the screen is black [11:44] specifically, one that supports the 8 series cards? [11:44] hmm [11:45] i'm not sure if i can login [11:45] yeah, i can login too [11:45] but black screens [11:46] do you use compiz? [11:46] yes, but not always. It still has a lot of problems for me. [11:47] the issue with that might be compiz [11:47] i haven't tried killing that and going to a tty [11:47] but it's weird, because my feisty laptop uses compiz and it works fine [11:48] I have been trying things in tribe 3 before. If I removed the standard options from the boot line and added vga=0 the tty's worked === Stormx2` [n=Stormx2@host-87-240-137-127.hi-velocity.net] has joined #ubuntu+1 [11:48] could it be vga modes? === eMaX_ [n=emax@156.25.76.83.cust.bluewin.ch] has joined #ubuntu+1 [11:49] http://www.ossgeeks.co.uk/?p=120 [11:49] I think so.

[11:49] i'm using vga=795 right now [11:50] ive got a 1600x1200 at home, i cant quite figure out which vga to give it [11:50] seems it's just too beefy [11:50] try vga=ask ant it may tell you [11:50] 796 for 8 bit, 798 for 16 bit, 799 for 32 bit [11:51] wish there were widescreen vga modes [11:54] Oh hey, here's something about blank terminals: [11:54] For some reason, fbcon isn't loading. [11:55] Try modprobe-ing it. And if it works, put 'fbcon' on a new line in /etc/modules . === MacSlow [n=mirco@unaffiliated/macslow] has joined #ubuntu+1 [11:56] yeah that worked [11:56] awesome [11:57] no luck here yet [11:59] I still wonder why that module is not being loaded. === mrigns [n=mrigns@unaffiliated/mrigns] has joined #ubuntu+1 [12:00] http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=2719341&postcount=2 [12:00] Hmm, there's a vga mode table. [12:00] 1600x1200 is an option. === buzztracker [n=buzztrac@pelikan.garga.net] has joined #ubuntu+1 [12:00] Or you can install hwinfo and run 'sudo hwinfo --framebuffer' [12:00] it always says unrecognized mode for me [12:01] Maybe the EDID is wrong, or something.

[12:04] anybody notice the buttons not registering actions in the installer? [12:05] That'll tell you your table of framebuffer modes; I believe then you have to add 0x200 to each. === pvandewyngaerde [n=pvandewy@42.89-136-217.adsl-dyn.isp.belgacom.be] has joined #ubuntu+1 === arpu [n=arpu@p54BFF16E.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu+1 [12:13] DanaG: i'll try it when i head home [12:16] i must say, im a little surprised the gl screensavers work at all with nv
