| musikgoat|work | thanks Eq|laptop i'll look into that | 01:26 |
| Eq|laptop | ameyer / Arwen: 7.3 has a lot more automatic stuff in it. | 01:26 |
| Eq|laptop | hell, so does 7.2 - it's just not used by default | 01:26 |
| Eq|laptop | and not as advanced as what is in 7.3 | 01:26 |
| Eq|laptop | anyway | 01:26 |
| Arwen | Eq|laptop, I see | 01:26 |
| === Eq|laptop sleeps | ||
| Eq|laptop | (7.3 doesn't need monitor or gfx card sections anymore..) | 01:26 |
| Arwen | would you happen to know what creates the text mode consoles? because I'm not getting them | 01:27 |
| Arwen | and that's not good | 01:27 |
| Eq|laptop | the tty's? | 01:27 |
| Arwen | yeah | 01:27 |
| Eq|laptop | you have no getty's?? | 01:27 |
| Eq|laptop | they're created by init | 01:27 |
| Arwen | oh shit... | 01:27 |
| Eq|laptop | it spawns the 6 getty processes | 01:27 |
| Eq|laptop | what init level are you in? | 01:28 |
| Arwen | normal I think | 01:28 |
| Eq|laptop | usually the only time it doesn't spawn them is if you're in init level 1 | 01:28 |
| Eq|laptop | (single user mode) | 01:28 |
| Eq|laptop | it is possible to disable the others though | 01:28 |
| Eq|laptop | i suggest you have a look at the contents of /etc/inittab | 01:28 |
| Eq|laptop | anyway | 01:28 |
| Eq|laptop | must sleep | 01:28 |

| Vorian | what is the dbus fix for gksu dist upgrade to gutsy? | 01:49 |
| Vorian | and hello :) | 01:49 |
| musikgoat|work | Vorian i just ignored it, i'm in the process of upgrading now | 01:50 |
| musikgoat|work | "Fetching the upgrades" now | 01:50 |
| Vorian | it wont upgrade | 01:50 |
| musikgoat|work | really? | 01:50 |
| Vorian | no "new version available" | 01:50 |
| musikgoat|work | where does it stop? | 01:50 |
| Vorian | it doesn't even start | 01:50 |
| Arwen | it starts for me, well, it already finished | 01:50 |
| Vorian | gksu "update-manager -c -d" | 01:51 |
| musikgoat|work | try sudo update-manager -c -d | 01:51 |
| musikgoat|work | or not sudo | 01:51 |
| musikgoat|work | gksudo "update-manager -c -d" worked perfectly for me | 01:51 |
| Vorian | sudo update-manager -c -d | 01:51 |
| Vorian | oh, I got the script error this time :) | 01:51 |
| DanaG | Hmm, is it possible to run it not as root, and then let it elevate later? | 01:51 |
| musikgoat|work | but i did get the "warning: could not initiate dbus" error though | 01:52 |
| Vorian | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/34248/ | 01:53 |
| Vorian | that's the newest error | 01:53 |
| Vorian | I added the gutsy info to ~/.update-manager-core/meta-release | 01:53 |
| Vorian | DanaG, That worked! | 01:54 |

| maccam94 | it said no xserver-xorg 1.4, so no displayconfig-gtk | 06:49 |
| musikgoat|work | i thought it was not going to include 7.3 of xserver | 06:49 |
| musikgoat|work | and x bulletproof | 06:50 |

| tehk | maccam94, yea sad | 06:51 |
| maccam94 | xorg 7.3 is gonna be in it i thought | 06:52 |
| tehk | Arwen, no they are not. Displayconfig and bullet are built for 7.3 | 06:52 |
| maccam94 | just not xserver-xorg-core 1.4 | 06:52 |

| maccam94 | is it just the xserver, or other parts? is it still mostly xorg 7.3 even if it's xserver 1.3? | 07:01 |

| tehk | They release final on the same day | 07:02 |
| maccam94 | regardless, are there other packages in 7.3? | 07:02 |

| maccam94 | randr is set | 07:02 |
| maccam94 | and isn't that the one that deals with displays/resolution? | 07:02 |

| maccam94 | so displayconfig can still work | 07:03 |
| maccam94 | it never says that displayconfig/bulletproofx are delayed | 07:03 |

| Arwen | composite is still in gutsy as a blueprint, but I don't think it'll make it in either | 07:11 |
| tehk | I seen some discussion on the devel list questioning if it will come as default. | 07:11 |
| tehk | Well what i would like to see is a box that popus up on first boot and asks you if you want to load it and restricted drivers. So its kinda by default | 07:12 |
| maccam94 | Arwen: months before, i had expected ubuntu's devs would have done the work necessary to stabilize some core parts of compiz to ship enabled by default | 07:13 |
| maccam94 | when it got closer to the release date, things became more clear | 07:13 |
| maccam94 | it's frustrating to build up hope for new features, ones that solve old problems or ones that included things by default that previously needed a lot of work, only to reverse the decision later | 07:15 |

| DanaG | I had to tweak /etc/default/acpi-support to get resume working -- some things about saving video PCI state. | 09:38 |
| buz | in feisty i had a different bug on my old notebook: after resume, both cores would run in slowest setting and never go back to fast | 09:38 |
| DanaG | But I did that back in Feisty. | 09:39 |
| buz | mine worked out of box | 09:39 |
| buz | but i have intel graphics which are splendidly supported in gutsy | 09:39 |
| DanaG | Can you get native-res framebuffer? That's one thing I reeeally wish NVIDIA had. | 09:40 |
| DanaG | vga=(hwinfo --framebuffer, then add 0x200 to returned values). | 09:40 |
| DanaG | hwinfo is a package. | 09:40 |
| buz | no idea, i never bother with console framebuffer | 09:40 |
| buz | i only use the text console to fix bugs, for which 80x24 is good enough ;) | 09:41 |
| buz | or rather, gma x3100 works splendid once you use the command line setup, live cd wont work | 09:41 |
| DanaG | I wish my laptop had switchable onboard and offboard. | 09:41 |
| buz | i think there are some configuration where the second core is shutdown before suspend | 09:41 |
| buz | now if only i could remember what command does that | 09:42 |
| buz | the x3100 is plenty for me | 09:42 |
| buz | i dont game and it runs compiz just fine | 09:42 |
| DanaG | I like to play games, so IGP is not an option for me. However, I hate NVIDIA drivers. ATI are worse. | 09:42 |
| buz | yeah i sold an otherwise perfect thinkpad t60 because the ati drivers were so bad | 09:43 |

| buz | nvidia is heaven compared to ati | 09:43 |
| DanaG | For me, PowerMizer under Windows is broken -- I have 3 choices of modes (powersave, balanced, performance) when on AC, and only powersave when on battery. | 09:43 |
| DanaG | And this is under XP, not Vista. | 09:43 |
| buz | no idea, i never run xp if i can help it ;) | 09:43 |
| DanaG | (I deleted my 17 gig Vista partition so I wouldn't have to buy a 100 gig notebook drive (I have 80). Now I have /var on a separate partition. | 09:44 |
| DanaG | However, I had to make /var/run and something else (I don't remember what) on the root. | 09:44 |
| DanaG | aah, /var/lock | 09:44 |
| DanaG | Here's something fun to run on native-res framebuffer: mplayer, with fbdev2 output, and expansion enabled. | 09:45 |
| buz | why bother with fb | 09:45 |
| buz | its not like nvidia cant do xvideo | 09:45 |
| DanaG | Beats me, it's just fun to do things (such as running cacafire) on the framebuffer. | 09:46 |
| buz | there is one definite advantage to running with one core: the fan never goes on ;) | 09:47 |
| DanaG | When I'm on AC, my fan is always on. Period. | 09:48 |
| buz | man i'd go crazy | 09:48 |
| DanaG | That's the way Gateway designed this laptop. | 09:48 |

| DanaG | I initially found it to be annoying, but now I realize it's actaully - less - annoying to me than a constantly varying fan. | 09:49 |
| DanaG | It's all subjective. | 09:49 |
| buz | mine either is on or off | 09:49 |
| buz | the high speed mode only comes on under serious load | 09:50 |
| DanaG | The one annoying thing about the cooler on my laptop: there's a 1mm gap between the northbridge and the heatpipe, so thermal paste is not an option. I made the mistake of removing the thermal pad, and had to replace it with several layers of aluminum foil (thick, from container lids) and thermal paste. | 09:51 |
| buz | i wished i could reconfigure the trip points though. no need to have a fan running at 49 | 09:51 |

| tormod | shadeofgrey: you've seen https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MacBookPro ? | 03:46 |
| shadeofgrey | im only comfortable with asking the dream foundation for money if im SURE i can dualk boot leopard and ubuntu when the time coimes so iu can honor the fact that they spent $12,000 on hardware and softwarefor me by donating my weekends to concerting desperatewindows users to ubuntu with my entire weekends | 03:46 |
| shadeofgrey | tormod, yes and i dont trust that instruction set as far as i can throw it | 03:46 |
| shadeofgrey | all i want to know is this | 03:47 |
| shadeofgrey | if i get themacpro | 03:47 |
| shadeofgrey | and i get the quadro 4500 nvidia card | 03:47 |
| shadeofgrey | and i get 2 30" dell displays | 03:47 |
| shadeofgrey | am i going to be ablke to run leopard and ubuntu on the same machine without serious hacking or not | 03:47 |
| shadeofgrey | because if the answeer is no ill buy a dell with badass specs and be done with it | 03:48 |
| Eq|laptop | my gut feeling is yes | 03:48 |
| shadeofgrey | Eq|laptop, assuming your gut feeling is wrong are you willing to wortk with me to get it going if i cant hasndle it myself? | 03:49 |
| Eq|laptop | i can do my best, yeah | 03:49 |
| shadeofgrey | Eq|laptop, i owe the ubuntu community a whole lot.. im willing to fight to get it to work | 03:49 |
| shadeofgrey | im wiulling to bleed to get it to worrk because there are a lot of poor people that bought machines with vista that i need to save | 03:49 |
| Eq|laptop | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MacBookProFeisty | 03:49 |
| shadeofgrey | but i cant dio that unless im running ubuntu myself | 03:50 |
| Eq|laptop | according to that you have to use the alternate install with feisty | 03:50 |
| shadeofgrey | does anybody have any question of my convictions here? | 03:50 |
| Eq|laptop | i dont see anything that suggests gutsy is any different | 03:50 |

| Assid | dammit.. it still doesnt work | 03:52 |
| Eq|laptop | probably so that grub doesnt need to understand efi | 03:52 |
| shadeofgrey | and i say again... am i going to have to do all this if im running an nvidia board? | 03:52 |
| Eq|laptop | but that is conjecture on my part | 03:52 |
| shadeofgrey | becausse i dont mind waiting | 03:53 |
| Eq|laptop | probably not | 03:53 |
| shadeofgrey | in fact id prefer it if the general concensus is im going to have a far easier time with a macpro and Quadro 4500 card | 03:53 |
| Eq|laptop | some, yes | 03:53 |
| Eq|laptop | all, no. | 03:53 |
| shadeofgrey | okay | 03:53 |
| shadeofgrey | then heres my plan | 03:53 |
| Assid | http://pastebin.com/d46cfff2f | 03:54 |
| Eq|laptop | tbh they're much of a muchness.. imo nvidia's linux drivers are leagues better than ati's, but they're both a bit crap. | 03:54 |
| shadeofgrey | i neeed ridiculous resources to run visya and dictation software | 03:54 |
| shadeofgrey | so | 03:54 |
| Eq|laptop | Assid: comment out the interfaces line - it should bind to all | 03:54 |
| === eMaX_ [n=emax@197.40.77.83.cust.bluewin.ch] has joined #ubuntu+1 | ||
| Eq|laptop | with that as it is, it will ONLY bind to eth1 | 03:55 |
| shadeofgrey | im going to have two 10,000 rpm SATA drives for OS'es.. one for leopard - and then onesplit in half for vista and ubuntu | 03:55 |
| Eq|laptop | IF it works at all | 03:55 |
| Eq|laptop | that's a malformed line imo | 03:55 |
| shadeofgrey | then two 750 7200 rpn sata drives for stoirage | 03:55 |
| Eq|laptop | dang | 03:55 |
| Assid | doesnt help Eq|laptop | 03:55 |

| shadeofgrey | now | 03:56 |
| Eq|laptop | anyway - i reckon it should not be overly difficult to get ubuntu going on the mbp, or on any other mac (mac pro or whatever). might take a bit of effort initially, but nothing overly complex. | 03:56 |
| Eq|laptop | and that applies regardless of ati or nvidia | 03:56 |
| Eq|laptop | or even intel | 03:56 |
| shadeofgrey | talk to me about compiz evolution | 03:56 |
| shadeofgrey | because i want eye candy god damn it | 03:56 |
| shadeofgrey | yeah i know... im a pushy bastard of a cripple | 03:57 |
| Eq|laptop | hehe | 03:57 |
| Eq|laptop | fusion's not bad | 03:57 |
| Eq|laptop | but it's still buggy as all hell | 03:57 |
| Eq|laptop | imo | 03:57 |
| TheInfinity | Eq|laptop: you try to get ubuntu on latest MBP? :) | 03:57 |
| Eq|laptop | TheInfinity: nope. that would require owning one | 03:57 |
| shadeofgrey | but when you can only move one limb under your own power and that limb happens to be a single arm and yo can only type with four fingers on that one hand..... your coimputer becomes your life | 03:57 |

| Eq|laptop | ya | 03:58 |
| TheInfinity | it is no difficulty btw ;) | 03:58 |
| shadeofgrey | what? | 03:58 |
| shadeofgrey | whats no difficulty? | 03:58 |
| Eq|laptop | Assid: you need to vastly strip down your config imo | 03:58 |
| TheInfinity | get ubuntu on mbp | 03:58 |
| shadeofgrey | with nvidia youmean? | 03:58 |
| shadeofgrey | yeah im hopingso | 03:59 |

| seezer | this works fine on my desktop - but on the laptop it refuses to create the ramdisk | 04:30 |

| shadeofgrey | if i can get 7.04 alternate installed on first gen macbookpro cant easyubuntu do alll the hard ati graphics stuff for me? | 04:38 |
| SeveredCross | I would stay away from easyubuntu. | 04:38 |
| seezer | seems to be overwritten by $1 ( $ramdisk = "$1" if /ramdisk\s*=\s*(.+)$/ig; | 04:38 |
| seezer | ) | 04:38 |
| SeveredCross | Getting ATI graphics working is as simple as doing sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx | 04:38 |
| shadeofgrey | okay | 04:39 |
| SeveredCross | That's what I did for my Inspiron E1705, and I have 3D acceleration, the works. | 04:39 |
| shadeofgrey | then how do i accompliush that via the liveCD | 04:39 |
| SeveredCross | How do you mean? | 04:39 |
| === obmuD [n=stuffor@3e70d115.adsl.enternet.hu] has joined #ubuntu+1 | ||
| SeveredCross | Oh right, the LiveCD won't start X. | 04:39 |
| SeveredCross | Because VESA's busted. | 04:39 |
| shadeofgrey | if i can get the liveCD to boot afterdoing the ati driver shit working ill take the plunge, install bootcamp and takethe risk | 04:40 |
| shadeofgrey | mind you its a hugerisk | 04:40 |
| SeveredCross | All you need to do is get yourself a valid internet connection, enable multiverse and universe repositories, and install xorg-driver-fglrx | 04:40 |
| SeveredCross | ^^ | 04:40 |
| shadeofgrey | but i ghave superdupert installed | 04:40 |
| shadeofgrey | so worse comes to worse | 04:40 |
| seezer | tormod: ah ok. replaced $ramdisk with the path to update-initramfs in the system() call - it works fine now. | 04:40 |
| shadeofgrey | if i nuke my entire disk i can just replace the entire thing with my latest backup | 04:41 |
| SeveredCross | Once you get dropped back to the CLI after X tells you it couldn't start, all you have to do is hit Ctrl-Alt-F2 to get yourself to a tty | 04:41 |
| seezer | gonna search for the reason that it gets overwritten somehow | 04:41 |
| SeveredCross | Then work from the CLI to install xorg-driver-fglrx to the Live CD. | 04:41 |
| SeveredCross | Then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart and you'll get the LiveCD X environment. | 04:41 |
| shadeofgrey | SeveredCross, you understand though dont you that im not on a pc im on a first generation macbookpro running an ati x1600 card | 04:41 |
| SeveredCross | Yeah. | 04:42 |
| SeveredCross | It all works the same. | 04:42 |
| shadeofgrey | SeveredCross, you still think you can hlp me makeit work? | 04:42 |
| SeveredCross | Yes... | 04:42 |
| SeveredCross | The process is the same. | 04:42 |
| seezer | /etc/kernel-img.conf got a line "ramdisk = /usr/sbin/mkinitramfs | 04:42 |
| seezer | " | 04:42 |
| seezer | hum. | 04:42 |
| shadeofgrey | SeveredCross, okay pm me with the exact steps i need to follow after restarting my mac with the ubuntu CD in | 04:42 |
| shadeofgrey | to get the liveCD working | 04:43 |
| SeveredCross | I won't PM you but I'll list them for you. | 04:43 |
| shadeofgrey | THEN | 04:43 |
| shadeofgrey | please pm me | 04:43 |
| shadeofgrey | iy'll make my life easier | 04:43 |
| SeveredCross | I dislike PM, I'll just tell you here. | 04:43 |
| SeveredCross | It's not moving that fast, you can follow. | 04:43 |
| shadeofgrey | okay fine | 04:43 |
| SeveredCross | Step 1. Boot LiveCD. When you get told that X can't start, answer No to both questions, and let yourself get dropped out to the commandline. Then, hit Ctrl-Alt-F2 to get to a workable tty. | 04:43 |
| SeveredCross | This tty should be logged in as user "ubuntu" | 04:44 |
| shadeofgrey | not ctrl-alt-f2? | 04:44 |
| shadeofgrey | er | 04:44 |
| shadeofgrey | f1 | 04:44 |
| shadeofgrey | ? | 04:44 |
| SeveredCross | No. | 04:44 |
| tormod | shadeofgrey: a little warning: you have wired / no-configuration internet connection? Network-manager would need the GUI... | 04:44 |
| SeveredCross | Right, I forgot to mention that. | 04:44 |
| shadeofgrey | tormod, no i have nothing but wireless | 04:44 |
| SeveredCross | Even so, a little iwconfig work is all it takes in most cases. | 04:45 |
| SeveredCross | Do you know the SSID of your wireless network and is it security enabled? | 04:45 |
| shadeofgrey | yes and yes | 04:45 |
| shadeofgrey | and i know the connect passwoed | 04:45 |
| SeveredCross | What security? WPA? | 04:45 |
| shadeofgrey | yes | 04:45 |
| SeveredCross | Shit. | 04:45 |
| shadeofgrey | er | 04:46 |
| shadeofgrey | no | 04:46 |
| SeveredCross | wpa_supplicant is a BITCH. | 04:46 |
| shadeofgrey | WAP | 04:46 |
| SeveredCross | WEP? | 04:46 |
| SeveredCross | WAP is not a wireless security mode, last I checked. | 04:46 |
| SeveredCross | WPA and WEP are. | 04:46 |
| SeveredCross | WAP is Wireless Access Point | 04:46 |
| shadeofgrey | then im WEP | 04:46 |
| tormod | shadeofgrey: the alternative is to download the fglrx package (.deb) and install it with dpkg -i | 04:46 |
| SeveredCross | You'll need libstdc++5 and something else too. | 04:47 |
| tormod | shadeofgrey: I mean download from another computer and transfer with USB stick. | 04:47 |
| shadeofgrey | screw it | 04:47 |
| shadeofgrey | ill just wait till i have my macpro and my nvidia quadro 4500 card | 04:47 |
| SeveredCross | Whatever you want. | 04:48 |
| SeveredCross | It's really not that difficult. | 04:48 |
| shadeofgrey | but id still like a concensus on how hard it would be to get 2 30" displays working in ubuntu onnce i gt it installed | 04:48 |
| shadeofgrey | they offered me 2 and i really wanna say yes | 04:48 |
| SeveredCross | No idea how that would work with nVidia. | 04:48 |
| SeveredCross | With ATI, it's not superbly difficult, aticonfig can do most of the setup for you. | 04:49 |
| shadeofgrey | you've gotta be kidding | 04:49 |
| SeveredCross | Why have I got to be kidding? | 04:49 |
| shadeofgrey | i thoiught ati driver support inn ubuntu blew rancid ardvark nuts | 04:49 |
| SeveredCross | It's really not as bad as everyone claims it is. | 04:49 |
| SeveredCross | It could certainly be better, but it's not all that bad | 04:50 |
| shadeofgrey | is nvidia support far superior? | 04:50 |

| === twilight_ is now known as twilight | ||
| shirish | crimsun: type wx-config | 07:28 |
| shirish | wx-config is hashed (/usr/bin/wx-config) | 07:28 |

| shirish | crimsun: nosrednaekim: I'm novice at what this LD_LIBRARY_PATH thing is so need your help guys | 07:29 |

| === PriceChild [n=pricechi@ubuntu/member/pdpc.supporter.student.PriceChild] has joined #ubuntu+1 | ||
| crimsun | why are you concerned with $LD_LIBRARY_PATH ? | 07:32 |
| crimsun | it has nothing to do with what you intend; you already have /usr/lib/wx/config/gtk2-unicode-release-2.8 | 07:32 |
| crimsun | look at the `./configure --help' output for whatever wxWidgets app you're attempting to compile | 07:33 |
| crimsun | specifically, you're looking for a --with-wxwidgets option | 07:33 |
| crimsun | further, if there's an option that allows you to specify the path to wx-config, you want to pass /usr/lib/wx/config/gtk2-unicode-release-2.8 to it | 07:34 |
| crimsun | this is what we do for many wxWidgets apps like vlc | 07:34 |
| shirish | crimsun: there is this big ./configure --help thing | 07:34 |
| shirish | crimsun: this is for boinc , a distributed computing manager & client | 07:35 |
| shirish | crimsun: http://www.pastebin.ca/663510 | 07:35 |
| === jrib [n=jrib@upstream/dev/jrib] has joined #ubuntu+1 | ||
| crimsun | boinc is in Ubuntu. | 07:35 |
| crimsun | perhaps you're looking for the boinc-manager package? | 07:36 |
| crimsun | or kboincspy? | 07:36 |
| shirish | crimsun: I know I want to try out the newer one , I took the package from svn & compiling it. | 07:36 |
| crimsun | then do it the Debian way, which is to generate a proper source package. | 07:37 |
| crimsun | start with `apt-get build-dep boinc-manager' | 07:37 |
| shirish | crimsun: while configuring it gave me the warning at http://pastebin.ca/663491 | 07:37 |
| crimsun | there are myriad resources for generating Ubuntu packages; #ubuntu-motu can give you additional pointers for documentation that you should read first. | 07:38 |
| shirish | crimsun: I don't think that will work as it has stuff for 2.6 series, the newest boinc needs wxwidgets 2.8 http://pastebin.ca/663491 | 07:38 |
| crimsun | it does work; you just need to adjust debian/control and debian/rules | 07:38 |
| shirish | crimsun: I'm not look at doing packaging at this point in time, this is much a personal thing atm, once I get a bit more command then perhaps I could think about packaging | 07:38 |
| crimsun | I'm telling you that the easiest way to do it is to bootstrap up from the existing package | 07:39 |

| crdlb | Cwiiis, that rendering method option was well...bad | 08:01 |
| crdlb | you can use --indirect-rendering or --loose-binding though | 08:01 |
| Cwiiis | crdlb: Has the option definitely been removed? Performance is unacceptable for me without it, I get terrible jerking any time CPU usage goes above idle and windows don't move smoothly like before | 08:02 |
| crdlb | it was never there | 08:02 |
| crdlb | if you have an nvidia card, try --loose-binding | 08:02 |
| Cwiiis | I can assure you it was, with beryl... | 08:02 |
| Cwiiis | will do | 08:02 |
| crdlb | Cwiiis, it never was with compiz | 08:03 |
| crdlb | so it wasn't removed, just never added | 08:03 |
| Cwiiis | crdlb: mm, I said beryl :) | 08:03 |
| Cwiiis | crdlb: I guess that part was never merged back in | 08:04 |
| crdlb | nothing was merged into the core | 08:04 |
| crdlb | with a few exceptions | 08:04 |
| crdlb | the core is compiz | 08:04 |
| Cwiiis | righ | 08:04 |
| Cwiiis | t | 08:04 |
| Cwiiis | hmm, doesn't seem to have made much of a difference :( Back to metacity it is then... | 08:05 |
| crdlb | Cwiiis, one thing to check in ccsm, disable "Detect refresh rate" in General Options>Display Settings | 08:06 |
| crdlb | and set the refresh rate to your actual refresh rate | 08:06 |
| crdlb | the nvidia driver deliberately misreports it | 08:06 |
| Cwiiis | crdlb: It's not that kind of slow-down - say I load up aptitude, the mouse cursor actually jerks | 08:06 |

| avis | i had good luck with update-manager -d it did a successful network install of gutsy | 11:52 |
| ggilbert | Is anyone using gutsy with compiz, an nvidia card, and working GL apps? | 11:54 |
| Muelli | DanaG: nice suggestion, but It's not what I want. It chooses what locales to use and selects a default one. But I want to set LC_MESSAGES to a different value than, say, LC_TIME. And I don't know how to achieve this yet | 11:57 |
| arooni | folks! i'm installing on the ubuntu alternate 7.04 cd... and its on 'select and install software' and its at 85% "installed br1tty-x11" and has been for a LONG time.... | 11:57 |
| arooni | is that ok? | 11:57 |
| ggilbert | Just wait it out and it should finish eventually | 11:57 |
| Muelli | arooni: you might want to check the log on another terminal.. | 11:57 |
| ggilbert | I know it was slow for me around tha point | 11:57 |
| arooni | oh wait here it goes~! | 11:58 |
| arooni | 90% zomg! | 11:58 |
| Muelli | or fire up top to see whether a process deos something | 11:58 |
| DanaG | Hmm, perhaps there's something in /etc/default for locales. | 11:59 |

| ubuntu__ | hello | 12:16 |
| ubuntu__ | I have Kubuntu 7.10 tribe 4. I was hoping KDE 4 would be here. | 12:17 |
| ubuntu__ | Doesn't seem very diffrent from the 3.5 I had on Fiesty | 12:17 |
| TheInfinity | kde4 has extra apt-get sources. | 12:19 |
| TheInfinity | kubuntu 7.10 will not include KDE4 | 12:19 |
| ubuntu__ | shucks. ;D | 12:19 |
| ubuntu__ | I'll hold off until 7.10 is stable before trying out kde 4 | 12:19 |
| TheInfinity | because KDE4 is released after 7.10 release | 12:20 |
| ubuntu__ | o, well then ;d | 12:20 |
| TheInfinity | you can install kde4 also on ubuntu 7.04 | 12:20 |
| TheInfinity | but its alpha. that should say everything. | 12:20 |
| arooni | folks i'm following: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Installing_Ubuntu_7.04_%28Feisty_Fawn%29_on_a_ThinkPad_T61#Intel_Graphics_Media_Accelerator_X3100_.28Chipset_GM965.29_.28Solved.29 .... (i followed the pinning process), and when i'm done: EE Failed to load module "intel" (module does not exist, 0) ideas? (7.04) | 12:20 |
| ubuntu__ | I don't know "dpkg and dependencies" like warned at the top. but I want to install 7.10 kubuntu and submit bugs as i see.... | 12:21 |
| ubuntu__ | are those 2 important? :s | 12:22 |
| TheInfinity | you should be familiar with console at all. | 12:23 |
| TheInfinity | if you are not its not a good idea to make alphatesting | 12:23 |
| TheInfinity | because the devs need information, not just "it does not work" | 12:24 |
| ubuntu__ | well i know a decent amount of command line | 12:25 |
| ubuntu__ | like downloading with it and changing directory. bashing stuff and execute ;) | 12:25 |
| ubuntu__ | well, last 2 are sorta same | 12:25 |
| TheInfinity | workin with vi because xorg dies not start for some reason etc ...? ;) | 12:26 |
| ubuntu__ | ;P tryin to scare me away eh | 12:26 |
| TheInfinity | no - if you want to learn this is a great chance. | 12:27 |
| ubuntu__ | yeap | 12:27 |
| ubuntu__ | hum, quick question here.... | 12:27 |
| TheInfinity | there are only too much people who think "ah alpha software - brand new - i install it at my productive system" | 12:27 |
| arooni | folks how can i do thsi: I also had to install the latest kernel for Feisty | 12:27 |
| TheInfinity | and 1 hour later comes: "linux is crap, does not work" | 12:28 |
| ubuntu__ | i messed the crap out of my ati drivers on ubuntu, then tried kde and i liked it but it was slow.... running on mesa drivers | 12:28 |
| ubuntu__ | i noticed it said "if ur cpu is powerful, enable all the effects" in the install | 12:28 |
| ubuntu__ | and it ran pretty laggy | 12:28 |
| ubuntu__ | :s is that drivers or a not clean install? | 12:29 |
| ubuntu__ | gnome ran fine with mesa | 12:29 |
| Arwen | mesa drivers as in "vesa"? or as in "ati"? | 12:29 |
| ubuntu__ | uh, it said mesa and it was ati :z | 12:30 |
| Arwen | um, mesa doesn't mean squat. | 12:30 |
| ubuntu__ | ok, lets see | 12:30 |
| ubuntu__ | when i did fglrxinfo it said for opengl, mesa 1.5 or somthing | 12:30 |
| Arwen | oh, there we go | 12:30 |

| ubuntu__ | ;) | 12:31 |
| Arwen | You don't have GPU accelerated 3d rendering. Instead, you're using CPU emulation. | 12:31 |
| ubuntu__ | well that explains the kde lag | 12:31 |
| Arwen | That's why you can't use any of the 3d effects. | 12:31 |
| ubuntu__ | i shouldn't expect any lag with an ati x300 and restricted drivers enabled right? :D | 12:31 |
| Arwen | An X300 is a really really bad card, lol. | 12:31 |
| ubuntu__ | pff | 12:32 |
| ubuntu__ | i've had it for years, still smojkes the old games i still play | 12:32 |
| Arwen | Let's see. But if you have accel right, it should still work fast enough. Anyway, your drivers aren't installed right. | 12:32 |
| ubuntu__ | yea, i messed that and synaptic package manager up when installing NetBeans through it | 12:32 |
| ubuntu__ | so a reinstall was in order | 12:33 |
| ggilbert | Hmmm, are you talking about the compiz desktop effects? Those won't work well with your X300 and the restricted drivers | 12:33 |
| ubuntu__ | yea i never tried em | 12:34 |
| Arwen | ggilbert, eh? They work on my X300. | 12:34 |
| ubuntu__ | i just wanted updated drivers for the ati card so cod2 and cs:s wouldn't mess up. (cod2 had transparent walls) | 12:34 |
| Arwen | Even heavy effects like blur and rain. | 12:34 |
| ubuntu__ | then they went kasplat ;) | 12:34 |
| ggilbert | Arwen: You're using the fglrx drivers or the stock radeon driver? | 12:34 |
| Arwen | both | 12:34 |
| ubuntu__ | at the same time :O ? | 12:34 |
| Arwen | (or have) | 12:35 |
| ggilbert | Interesting, last I had checked, ATI still hadn't added the proper extensions to support it. Glad to see that's changed | 12:35 |
| ubuntu__ | composite or whatever? | 12:35 |
| ubuntu__ | i didn't know they had that either. thought nvidia was only one | 12:35 |
| Arwen | ggilbert, they haven't. | 12:35 |
| === Amendt [n=Amendt@64.42.235.130] has joined #ubuntu+1 | ||
| Arwen | ggilbert, you can use Xgl to emulate the composite extension. | 12:36 |
| arooni | hey folks i'm really close to getting intel x3100 video working on my t61! i get this error when x tries to load: (EE) GARTInit: Unable to open /dev/agpgart (No such device or address) ... what should i do? | 12:36 |
| ggilbert | Oh, you're using Xgl | 12:36 |
| ubuntu__ | :o t61? I'm gettin a T61p soon. | 12:36 |
| Arwen | arooni, weird, X3100s aren't AGP. | 12:36 |
| ggilbert | I should give that a try. I wonder if suspend will get along with fglrx these days | 12:37 |
| Arwen | arooni, what's your xorg.conf look like? | 12:37 |
| Arwen | ggilbert, suspend seems to work (to RAM at least) | 12:37 |
| arooni | Arwen: kinda hard to paste since i dont have x on that lappy ;( | 12:37 |

| Arwen | oh yeah, anyone know how to use a mouse in a tty console? | 12:37 |
| ggilbert | neat. I gave up on FGLRX a while back and have just been looking forward to getting a laptop with intel graphics. :) | 12:37 |
| Arwen | One of my old slackware installs worked that way. | 12:38 |
| rsk | Arwen install gpm | 12:38 |
| Arwen | ggilbert, fglrx still sucks. the 8.40 one fixes a bunch of long-standing bugs, but it won't work on my system. | 12:38 |
| Arwen | rsk, cool. Do I need to configure it at all? | 12:38 |
| arooni | folks did i make the right move getting x3100 over nvidia 140m in my t61? | 12:38 |
| rsk | Arwen: dont think so | 12:39 |
| arooni | im having possible regrets ;p | 12:39 |
| ubuntu__ | (I'd say the 140m woulda been better) | 12:39 |
| Arwen | arooni, well, the x3100 should work well, but I'm not sure what your problem is. | 12:39 |
| Arwen | dunno how a 140m compares, I only know the XXXX numbering scheme. | 12:39 |
| arooni | damn | 12:39 |
| arooni | modprobing it didnt work | 12:39 |
| ubuntu__ | Quadro 140m == 8600 GS | 12:40 |
| ggilbert | arooni, I'm sure it can be made to work reasonably well with some effort. Generally I'd still say ATI and Linux are a bad combo. | 12:40 |
| Arwen | arooni, lol, you shoulda taken the 140m | 12:40 |
| Arwen | 8600GS mobile? SWEET. | 12:40 |
| ggilbert | but that could change | 12:41 |
| arooni | Arwen: really? | 12:41 |
| ubuntu__ | i would think so | 12:41 |
| arooni | why | 12:41 |
| arooni | is this something i can swap out later | 12:41 |
| arooni | if i want | 12:41 |
| ubuntu__ | well.... it depends on what you want your notebook for | 12:41 |
| arooni | business + programming | 12:41 |
| arooni | i dont like games | 12:41 |
| arooni | but i like beryl | 12:41 |
| Arwen | oh, never mind (that card woulda killed your battery time) | 12:41 |
| ubuntu__ | hum, 140m would still suit you well | 12:41 |
| ggilbert | If you don't care much for 3d stuff, then the ATI will work just fine | 12:41 |
| ubuntu__ | if u like effects, the quadro woulda done that like a pro ;D | 12:42 |
| ubuntu__ | oh noes | 12:42 |
| AnRkey | i have always been an nvidia man | 12:42 |
| ubuntu__ | i've turned into nvidia dude | 12:42 |
| AnRkey | nvidia just works | 12:42 |
| ubuntu__ | my ati was nothing but trouble | 12:42 |
| arooni | Arwen: thats what iw as worreid about | 12:42 |
| AnRkey | intel is my second best | 12:42 |
| DanaG | My NVIDIA is also lots of trouble. | 12:42 |
| DanaG | Got random Xorg freezes? | 12:42 |
| DanaG | Got Xorg crashing when running GLX apps under Compiz? | 12:43 |
| AnRkey | i have a 4 year old pc at work | 12:43 |
| AnRkey | p4 2.4 | 12:43 |
| AnRkey | gutsy runs compiz-fusion smoooooothyl on it | 12:43 |
| DanaG | Got unaccelerated framebuffer with no native-res modes? | 12:43 |
| AnRkey | i am sooo impressed | 12:43 |
| AnRkey | DanaG, ??? | 12:43 |
| ggilbert | Nvidia and Intel have both done pretty well with putting out a quality drive and keeping it up to date | 12:43 |
| DanaG | Got GPU staying in low-power mode even when running 3D apps sometimes? | 12:43 |
| Arwen | well, seeing as the only time your CPU would run compiz is when it's malconfigured, that's not too impressive. | 12:44 |
| ubuntu__ | :/ i found a bug in gutsy already. the installer has a seperate little window for loading bars. it's probably just temporary. but its weird ;P | 12:44 |
| AnRkey | i just wish nvidia would make it's drivers open source | 12:44 |
| DanaG | oh, and in Windows, PowerMizer is broken... battery forces me to low-power mode only. No "balanced" available. | 12:44 |
| AnRkey | has ati gone open source on it's drivers yet? | 12:44 |
| arooni | hey folks i'm really close to getting intel x3100 video working on my t61! i get this error when x tries to load: (EE) GARTInit: Unable to open /dev/agpgart (No such device or address) ... what should i do? | 12:44 |
| arooni | ive already tried modprobing it | 12:44 |
| Arwen | AnRkey, no, and they haven't fixed them either. | 12:45 |
| AnRkey | fixed them? | 12:45 |
| AnRkey | don't have an ati so don't know... | 12:45 |
| AnRkey | Arwen, whats wrong with them? | 12:45 |
| Arwen | let's see.. | 12:46 |
| Arwen | they're unstable and 30-50% slower than the Windows drivers | 12:46 |
| Arwen | the dual-head mode won't let you use different resolutions on each head | 12:46 |
| ubuntu__ | arooni isn't GART an AGP protection thing? | 12:46 |
| Arwen | you can't use XVideo and OpenGL at the same time | 12:46 |
| arooni | um oh noes | 12:46 |
| arooni | what do i need to do | 12:47 |
| Arwen | VSync doesn't eliminate tearing, it only moves it into the corner | 12:47 |
| arooni | i'm hearing recomiple kernal | 12:47 |
| Arwen | etc etc | 12:47 |
| ubuntu__ | *fears recompiling kernel* | 12:47 |
| ggilbert | No support for GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap. | 12:47 |
| Arwen | ggilbert, fglrx? | 12:47 |
| ggilbert | yeah | 12:47 |
| arooni | any ideas? | 12:48 |
| Arwen | ggilbert, fglrx doesn't support that. | 12:48 |
