| branstrom | Does anyone using Compiz experience windows opening with no content inside the decorations but a black area? It's just a black window. The controls are apparently still there, my mouse cursor changes when I move it over the window, and tooltips and menu popups show up. But there's no window content displayed. | 01:31 |

| branstrom | Yeah, but it's annoying :) | 01:32 |

| Vorbote | It is a mandatory access control (MAC) system. There is a lot of controversy among the proponents of SELinux and those of AppArmor because they use differnet approaches to security. SELinux is much more complete but it is like the 800-pound gorilla. AppArmor is nimble and delivers what it promises without much fuss. OTOH, SELinux can be a pain to use. I've lost (Fedora 4, which was a lemon) filesystems to a bad SELinux retagging. But things have c | 01:33 |
| _lemsx1_ | branstrom: i've found that killing and restarting compiz brings my windows back | 01:33 |
| Balaams_Miracle | I could make it more, because it's shared memory. But still. | 01:33 |
| Vorbote | AppArmor wouldn't slow down a small machine, SELinux, ooohhh yes. | 01:33 |
| Balaams_Miracle | Vorbote: So, does AppArmor function without any user interaction? Or can a user royally screw up his system with it? | 01:34 |

| crimsun | c01100011: latter. | 02:36 |

| gnomefreak | only showstopper/important fixes in the next week as i understand it universe might get in but they are gonna be tight | 02:39 |

| gnomefreak | skyfaller: thats why the word wait was there | 02:39 |

| pwnguin | ive fixed it all up | 02:46 |
| pwnguin | yea | 02:46 |
| skyfaller | So my problem with Feisty was that it didn't recognize my nvidia card or something... I had to use the alternate CD, and X11 wouldn't start after I installed, I had to hack the config file to use some other driver | 02:46 |
| gnomefreak | is it a fx4 | 02:46 |
| gnomefreak | or whatever it is :( | 02:46 |
| pwnguin | its closer to a geforce 7300 | 02:46 |
| gnomefreak | geforce4? or reg. | 02:46 |
| skyfaller | I was hoping that a Gutsy install would have an updated nvidia driver or whatever that would support my computer properly | 02:46 |
| pwnguin | uh | 02:46 |
| pwnguin | im 99.9 percent resetting during an upgrade caused the problem | 02:47 |
| gnomefreak | skyfaller: it does but you will hard pressed to get it installed and working on feisty and upgrade isnt worth the breakage | 02:47 |
| pwnguin | but geforce4 is an ANCIENT card | 02:47 |
| gnomefreak | pwnguin: not really | 02:47 |
| pwnguin | after the geforce4s they started naming it 5x00,6x00 etc | 02:47 |
| gnomefreak | pwnguin: late feisty devel they killed support | 02:47 |
| pwnguin | i know | 02:47 |
| gnomefreak | they are now supported by the nvidia-glx from us | 02:47 |
| gnomefreak | and legecy for nvidia iirc | 02:48 |
| gnomefreak | skyfaller: nvidia is fixable on feisty | 02:48 |
| skyfaller | gnomefreak: what do you recommend | 02:48 |
| skyfaller | ? | 02:48 |
| gnomefreak | skyfaller: thats not likely to be X fault | 02:48 |
| gnomefreak | skyfaller: what card what driver did you install? | 02:48 |
| gnomefreak | skyfaller: did you use restricted-manager to install it? | 02:48 |

| arooni_ | <arooni_> folks gparted keeps crashing when i try to reszie partitions on my ubuntu live cd | 03:39 |
| tarheelcoxn | arooni_: try the alternate cd, just use the partitioner there | 03:40 |
| arooni_ | oh man i already wiped this cd for the live cd | 03:40 |
| arooni_ | tarheelcoxn, can i do that without having to reinstall ubuntu | 03:40 |
| tarheelcoxn | arooni_: I'm confused. you're trying to re-do partitions but you don't want to reinstall? | 03:41 |
| arooni_ | thats right | 03:41 |
| arooni_ | i already have ubuntu installed | 03:41 |
| arooni_ | but now i want to resize a couple partitions i have | 03:41 |
| arooni_ | specficially the /home | 03:42 |
| tarheelcoxn | you added a drive or something? | 03:42 |
| tarheelcoxn | why are you trying to resize /home? | 03:42 |
| tarheelcoxn | arooni_: ^^ | 03:43 |
| arooni_ | tarheelcoxn, hey again; its because i have subsequently blown away windows | 03:43 |
| arooni_ | and have decided i will go 100% linux | 03:43 |
| gnomefreak | the daily cds are a bit messed up they have been working late to get things ready to build beta1 please wait until next week to use the desktop cd, the alternate cd may still be oversized as well | 03:45 |

| gnomefreak | spasticteapot: check on launchpad.net for the bug. i havent come across it in my email yet | 03:46 |
| arooni_ | tarheelcoxn, the only way that i could get my t61 to work with ubuntu | 03:46 |
| tarheelcoxn | ahhh | 03:46 |

| gnomefreak | tarheelcoxn: all the desktop(live cd) dailies are screwed up | 03:47 |
| arooni_ | tarheelcoxn, no i havent; got a link? | 03:47 |
| gnomefreak | wait until around tuesday they should be fixed | 03:47 |
| arooni_ | do people know that compiz is broken? | 03:48 |
| arooni_ | for intel cards? | 03:48 |
| arooni_ | in newest gutsy? | 03:48 |
| gnomefreak | that is about the day they will start spinning the beta ISO's for devel testing | 03:48 |
| tarheelcoxn | gnomefreak: that's why I'm suggesting arooni_ try a different livecd (ie. not ubuntu) | 03:48 |
| gnomefreak | arooni_: depends on the card some intel cards will NOT beablet o use compiz at all | 03:48 |
| gnomefreak | tarheelcoxn: the differnet live cd is built off the same live cd as the rest | 03:49 |
| gnomefreak | hence all will be broken | 03:49 |
| arooni_ | gnomefreak, but i was able to use it fine before | 03:49 |
| arooni_ | fereshest updates | 03:49 |

| spasticteapot | Someone needs to fix the X3100 bug. | 03:51 |

| CountX | i have a weird problem | 04:22 |
| CountX | when i boot sometimes it wont go into X, it says something about a drive with errors | 04:22 |
| CountX | ctrl+alt+del restarts and it boots fine | 04:23 |
| spasticteapot | CountX: It might just be that your filesystem/hard drive is flakey. | 04:23 |
| CountX | spasticteapot: just? | 04:23 |
| tarheelcoxn | CountX: have you installed smartmontools and run diagnostics on the drive? | 04:24 |
| CountX | tarheelcoxn: should i? | 04:24 |
| tarheelcoxn | CountX: if you're worried about your hard drive, yes | 04:24 |
| CountX | tarheelcoxn: theres nothing wrong with the hard drive its been solid for about 2 months | 04:25 |
| tarheelcoxn | CountX: how do you know without diagnostic output? | 04:25 |
| CountX | tarheelcoxn: they work fine now | 04:25 |
| CountX | tarheelcoxn: and always have, just lately its no booted sometimes | 04:25 |
| CountX | actually, pretty reliably | 04:26 |
| CountX | almost every boot it goes to that screen and i have to ctrl+alt+del | 04:26 |
| CountX | how do i run smartmontools? | 04:28 |
| CountX | sudo? | 04:28 |
| CountX | it as if its no installed | 04:28 |
| spasticteapot | CountX: If your hard drive/file system is bad, it means at most ten or twenty hours of work. If the Gutsy hard-drive management bits are gone, it means hundreds of hours of work. | 04:28 |
| CountX | spasticteapot: what? | 04:29 |
| CountX | this all started when i used gparted | 04:29 |
| CountX | damn you gparted | 04:30 |
| CountX | can you tell me how i can check for harddrive erros? | 04:31 |

| Dr_willis | of course look at the good side.. the # of updates for Feisty has dropped dramaticially! :) | 04:44 |

| emf | Hi. I just upgraded from Feisty to Gutsy. My old user can login, but the graphical shell doesn't load. I added a new user, and upon running `startx`, they get to what looks like gnome, but then the screen becomes white. I'm using the very latest September "nvidia" driver. If I change my driver to "nv", I can see gnome, and use my machine (though no 3d acceleration, of course). Can anybody help me logging into a graphical shell using the " | 04:50 |
| emf | nvidia" drivers? | 04:50 |
| terlmann | not really | 04:51 |
| terlmann | they are crap mon | 04:51 |
| tarheelcoxn | emf: it's closed. closed == no help | 04:51 |
| terlmann | one thing you could do | 04:51 |
| terlmann | add extra cooling to your gpu | 04:51 |
| terlmann | and cross your fingers | 04:51 |

| RAOF | emf: Ah, you've got Xgl installed? | 04:52 |
| emf | RAOF: I believe so. I've seen a message saying as much. Should I remove it...? | 04:52 |
| RAOF | emf: It can't work if you've manually installed the nvidia drivers, so yes. | 04:52 |
| CountX | what if ubuntu gets a tv commercial? | 04:53 |
| emf | RAOF: (I was using Beryl before) | 04:53 |
| RAOF | Or you could uninstall the nvidia drivers, and reinstall mesa and install nvidia-glx-new, which is the very latest nvidia drivers. | 04:53 |
| RAOF | emf: Beryl had a statically linked copy of mesa (ugh). | 04:53 |
| emf | RAOF: Ahh, neat! I'll give that a shot. I've always installed my nvidia drivers manually, but I'd prefer to allow Ubuntu to manage them. | 04:54 |
| emf | RAOF. I'll return upon the completion of that test, and let you know my results. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction! | 04:54 |
| RAOF | emf: NP | 04:55 |
| terlmann | emf | 04:55 |
| emf | ? | 04:55 |
| terlmann | get some extra cooling for it | 04:55 |
| terlmann | like a 12 volt fan taped to the heat sink ? | 04:55 |
| terlmann | makes it run better :-P | 04:55 |

| jscinoz | Yeah i have, problem is the games are MMORPG's, which ban you if they detect tampering with client >_< | 06:07 |
| jscinoz | biovore, system>preferences>appearnce>desktop effects tab | 06:07 |
| Biovore | ok | 06:07 |
| jscinoz | biovore, if you want to run games with compiz start compiz with the --indirect-rendering option | 06:07 |
| Biovore | where do I need to add that at? | 06:07 |
| AmyRose | Biovore: The way I'd do it is to hit Alt-F2 and type "metacity --replace", but what do I know since I'm just a KDE user | 06:07 |
| jscinoz | I find that if you close compiz via metacity --replace, X restarts | 06:08 |
| AmyRose | jscinoz: Hmm... kwin --replace doesn't do that | 06:08 |
| bur[n] er | metacity --replace doens't do it here either | 06:08 |
| jscinoz | idk maybe compiz just hates me | 06:08 |
| jscinoz | i stopped using it a while ago, far to unstable | 06:08 |
| bur[n] er | i bet it's metacity that hates youy | 06:08 |
| bur[n] er | try the fusion-icon for switching/ | 06:09 |
| jscinoz | yeah i know | 06:09 |

| pkern | The touchpad feels weird somehow. | 11:08 |

| RAOF | I suggest installing gsynaptics (or ksynaptics on KDE), and adding Option "SHMConfig" "true" to your synaptics section in xorg.conf. | 11:10 |

| nosrednaekim | Subhuman: check /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 02:18 |
| guardian | even if i select the proper screen specs and video adapter it still works only in 800x600 failsafe | 02:18 |
| guardian | any idea please ? | 02:18 |
| Subhuman | nosrednaekim, cheers :) | 02:19 |
| Subhuman | guardian, i just had the same thing, i booted into gnome, and ran the config in X and it worked fine. | 02:19 |
| nosrednaekim | guardian: maybe thats all it supports with that driver... try selecting the vesa driver | 02:19 |

| n0yd | Does the mozilla-plugin-vlc package work for anyone else? | 02:21 |
| nosrednaekim | guardian: nv should be able to handle at least 1024x768... odd | 02:21 |
| n0yd | It appears to be in the correct location after installing, but the browser isn't picking it up | 02:22 |

| Vegar | gnomefreak: <martalli_> Im hoping today's upgrades will finally fix the sound on my intel audio | 04:24 |

| martalli_ | just a sec | 04:29 |

| martalli_ | Yes | 04:29 |
| chrissturm | is there a way to make tracker search tomboy notes? | 04:29 |
| martalli_ | I only get "PCM" | 04:29 |
| mnemo | martalli: what does it say in the top left corner of alsamixer? | 04:29 |
| martalli_ | HDA Intel | 04:30 |
| martalli_ | SigmaTel STAC9221 A1 | 04:30 |
| mnemo | HDA Intel is probably the correct one, that's what I have when it works | 04:30 |
| mnemo | i have chipset ALC268 though but we don't have exactly same card so | 04:30 |
| mnemo | martalli: if you press TAB inside alsamixer, do you see more volume bars then? | 04:30 |
| crimsun | HDA is a specification, not a sound card | 04:32 |
| mnemo | yea, the card is "HDA Intel" right? at least that's what alsamixer says | 04:32 |
| crimsun | different codec manufacturers create hardware that conform, to varying degrees, to that specification | 04:32 |
| martalli_ | Just pcm | 04:32 |
| crimsun | mnemo: no, you have a Realtek HDA codec. Ignore the "82801H (ICH8)" | 04:33 |
| crimsun | the ICH8 simply refers to the chipset that houses the dsp for your audio | 04:33 |
| crimsun | it needs a corresponding codec - the really important part - to do anything | 04:34 |
| mnemo | ah ok | 04:34 |
| mnemo | and ALC628 is my codec? | 04:34 |
| mnemo | ALC268 I mean | 04:34 |
| crimsun | yes, Realtek ALC268. | 04:34 |
| mnemo | ok.. interesting | 04:34 |
| martalli_ | Is there a way to troubleshoot this audio issue, or is it just a problem with the audio drivers so far (it is alpha software, after all) | 04:37 |
| mnemo | martalli: my guess is that you could fix it by some simple commands.. but im really just a linux newbie, I have no idea what to type | 04:38 |

| martalli_ | They only have 1.0.15rc2...do you want me to try that one instead? | 04:56 |

| crimsun | martalli_: well, 1.0.15rc3 was only recently tagged in hg, but yes, try 1.0.15rc2 (only a bit older) | 04:57 |
| gnomefreak | terlmann: oh ok | 04:57 |

| mnemo | martalli: there might not be a file yet.. they only tagged in inside their source repository so far | 04:59 |
| martalli_ | crimsun: Is there something else I need to type, or do I need to reboot, restart X or soemthign along thos lines? | 05:00 |

| rsk | Dr_willis: does conky do that? | 06:51 |
| mauri | Dr_willis: already done | 06:51 |
| Dr_willis | conky run the senseors-detect? id say no.. | 06:52 |
| rsk | no.. | 06:52 |
| Dr_willis | since the command tells the user what modules need to be added/loaded and so forth | 06:52 |

| rsk | temperatues | 06:52 |
| rsk | afters it's configured | 06:52 |
| Dr_willis | conky can show tempertures and soforth | 06:52 |
| Dr_willis | sensors-detect is used initially to load the proper modules and configure them to get auto loaded at boot. | 06:52 |
| Dr_willis | after running that, then the lmsensors type programs should work. | 06:53 |
| Dr_willis | (if you are lucky) | 06:53 |

| mauri | Dr_willis: how i can start the new module in modconf | 06:53 |

| xtknight | my geforce 7800gt is fine | 08:33 |
| theCore | xtknight: I don't think the video driver for X I am using really matter | 08:33 |
| DanaG | argh, what happened to the old way of subpixel hinting? | 08:33 |
| theCore | xtknight: the problem surely is in the frame buffer driver | 08:33 |

| xtknight | theCore, well, when you switch out of X mode that driver has to clear the buffer. maybe it's not doing that properly? why dont you test if it's fine with nv or vesa to make sure? | 08:33 |

| ubotu | lilo is an alternative [Li] nux Boot[Lo] ader. Note: it is recommended that you use GRUB on Ubuntu instead. | 08:34 |
| DanaG | I severely dislike the new subpixel-hinting patches. | 08:34 |
| mnemo | stefg: i can repro the mouse bug with no desktop effects | 08:34 |
| xtknight | theCore, i have had problems switching between consoles on non-free ATI drivers (freezes though) | 08:34 |
| mnemo | stefg and IntuitiveNipple: i think one needs to have both a windows machine and a linux machine side by side to really understand the latency difference properly... | 08:35 |

| ubotu | Launchpad bug 144277 in ubuntu "mouse sucks in linux" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/144277 | 08:36 |
| theCore | xtknight: that reason why I think the problem is in the frame buffer driver, I don't see kernel message when booting (I don't use "quiet splash" in boot options) | 08:36 |
| DanaG | fbcon isn't being loaded, perhaps. | 08:36 |
| theCore | "mouse sucks in linux", wow, that's pretty bold | 08:37 |
| stefg | mnemo: but as long as this isn't reproducible on a wide range of system this si one of the trash/rant bugreports which will get ignored. I do dual boot, and i have used several mice over the years, and never encountered that. Ot might be a thing of default settings for mouse acceleration. | 08:37 |

| xtknight | mnemo, i have comprehensibly tested my current mouse here and i haven't found a problem ( i think i'm a person to notice very small things also ) very likely it's isolated to your H/W (i played quake3 in clans also ;) ) | 08:40 |
| mnemo | yes, do that danaG tells you.. that works too, that's actually a very good way to repro this bug | 08:40 |

| mnemo | xtknight: i have seen this bug on many many machines actually, even though I never wrote down the specs of them all to find a common factor | 08:40 |
| mnemo | xtknight: what's "evdev" ?? | 08:40 |
| xtknight | mnemo, a different mouse driver than default | 08:41 |
| IntuitiveNipple | DanaG: That's how I tried to reproduce it, but there's a physical limitation that makes that subjective not deterministic since for the test to be valid the button must be down before movement begins | 08:41 |
| xtknight | i think it's for logitech mice or for extra buttons and stuff. | 08:41 |

| mnemo | xtknight: is "xserver-xorg-input-evdev" the right package? | 08:52 |
| xtknight | mnemo, i think | 08:53 |

| xtknight | get your usb mouse's name first, this has to be exact. type cat /proc/bus/input/devices | 08:54 |
| theCore | xtknight: thanks for your help | 08:54 |
| xtknight | theCore, no problem | 08:54 |
| xtknight | mnemo, itll be like this N: Name="Logitech USB Gaming Mouse" | 08:54 |
| DanaG | aah: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=554407&page=2&highlight=font | 08:55 |
| DanaG | Oh yeah, for evdev, you can use Name "Logitech *" | 08:55 |
| DanaG | and it'll grab anything that matches. | 08:55 |
| xtknight | oh neat | 08:55 |
| xtknight | what about just *? | 08:55 |

| mnemo | yup it did | 09:15 |
| xtknight | heh cool. | 09:15 |
| xtknight | you can check out some tool for logitech that can adjust DPI also | 09:15 |
| DanaG | all it needs is this: Identifier, Driver, Option "SendCoreEVents", "bustype". | 09:15 |
| mnemo | xtknight: really... thanks man... this improves my experience with linux a boat load | 09:15 |
| xtknight | mnemo, no problem | 09:15 |
| xtknight | mnemo, maybe it's still a "bug"? | 09:15 |
| xtknight | with the default mouse driver | 09:15 |
| xtknight | or maybe the default one simply can't exploit the logitech's capabilities | 09:16 |
| IntuitiveNipple | Yes, it should remain as a valid bug since there is an effect, andit can be cured | 09:16 |

| xtknight | tell you what, file a bug and ill reply to it i guess | 09:16 |

| xtknight | everything working right? | 09:19 |
| IntuitiveNipple | arooni_: A2DP ? | 09:19 |

| arooni_ | IntuitiveNipple, i dont think it supports that;; its just for phone calls / skype | 09:20 |
| mnemo | DanaG: thx | 09:20 |
| xtknight | Identifier has to be what you have at the top of xorg though | 09:20 |
| xtknight | like mouse, or Mouse0 | 09:20 |

| DanaG | I have it set to 400, because 800 seems too fast sometimes. I don't even know if it does anything. | 09:20 |

| Logi | IntuitiveNipple: over in ##java we spend rather a lot of time helping people on debian and ubuntu switch the default gcj over to sun's implementation | 09:52 |
| IntuitiveNipple | Karark: It is likely you only need to do the fbcon step | 09:52 |
| IntuitiveNipple | Logi: You mean "sudo update-alternatives java" ? :) | 09:53 |

| whitt | hello, i recently upgraded to gutsy, and i'm trying to get rid of Trevino's compiz packages, because of course it doesn't work since the upgrade, I've removed the repo, and purged the files, but i'm still getting an error | 10:04 |
| Logi | IntuitiveNipple: ok, I have it on my feisty setup. That may have changed then. | 10:04 |
| rohan | i just checked that with the latest live cd, my screen resolution is NOT correctly detected anymore - 1280x800 on intel gma 950. is this bug already known and filed anywhere | 10:05 |
| rohan | ? | 10:05 |
| IntuitiveNipple | Logi: Strange; java2-runtime shows up from dpkg-query -l but not in Synaptics | 10:05 |

| rohan | all the previous gutsy live cd's used to work perfectly with the resolution part | 10:06 |
| whitt | it says: Type mismatch: Expected list, got string | 10:06 |
| IntuitiveNipple | rohan: Check in launchpad bugs | 10:06 |
| rohan | IntuitiveNipple: yes, that's what I'm doing atm | 10:07 |
| IntuitiveNipple | good :) | 10:07 |
| rohan | what package are such bugs filed against ? | 10:07 |
| rohan | because once i edit the file manually, it works | 10:07 |
| IntuitiveNipple | I think it's pick-n-mix... a general search will usually turn something up - I often simply sort all bugs by latest, for finding problems with recent daily CD builds | 10:07 |
| Logi | IntuitiveNipple: sun-java[56] -* is in multiverse in feisty, so they won't get installed unless the user has enabled that | 10:08 |

| IntuitiveNipple | I can see sun-java's, but no "java2-runtime" is listed by Synaptic | 10:08 |
| Logi | I'm on kubuntu, so I haven't used synaptic. Does it show meta packages at all? | 10:09 |
| mnemo | sry for the off-topic but --> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGvHNNOLnCk | 10:09 |
| Logi | according to packages.ubuntu.com sun java is still in multiverse in gutsy. I suppose that concludes my research :) | 10:10 |
| IntuitiveNipple | Logi: Just noticed, Gutsy only has Sun java5 and java6 (no 1.4) | 10:10 |
| Logi | ok... I won't miss it particularly | 10:10 |
| _emet_ | is awn in gutsy universe ? | 10:10 |
| Logi | although, there are occasional badly written swing apps that don't like java 5+ | 10:10 |
