It's trivial to turn them off. [09:21] they aren't enabled by default [09:21] frostburn: They are if your graphics card/drivers supports them properly :) === nikin_ [n=niki@dsl5401B26F.pool.t-online.hu] has joined #ubuntu+1 [09:24] RAOF: The problem is that 1) I had to realise the problem was with desktop effects (two reboot necessary) and then I got a crash while trying to disable it (one extra reboot). === Madpilot [n=ubuntu@ubuntu/member/madpilot] has joined #ubuntu+1 [09:25] scanner issues, not graphics.

[09:27] RAOF: Also, considering that 3D acceleration is recommended (needed?) to get the desktop effects and that 1) it's (AFAIK) know buggy on Intel chipset and 2) None of ATI / nvidia have OSS drivers 3) Many of the ATI drivers that still have 3D (like mine) are buggy as well, I really don't see the point [09:27] compizconfig-settings-manager === eMaX [n=emax@gprs01.swisscom-mobile.ch] has joined #ubuntu+1 === threethirty [n=three@103-188.dsl.parallax.ws] has joined #ubuntu+1 [09:27] RAOF: Didn't have to file a bug, I just added a "me too" to a long launchpad entry. [09:28] jmworx: (1) Buggy drivers are blacklisted (2) ATI < x850 have OSS drivers, (3) Compiz works fine on the nvidia restricted drivers, and won't try to start on the fglrx drivers. === riotkittie [n=tracy@cpe-72-228-37-187.nycap.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu+1 [09:28] hello all [09:29] RAOF: I accept the fact that it can be buggy (hey, any new feature is and in this case part of it is outside of Ubuntu devs control). I think it's a bit stupid to enable it by default and make people's machine crash until they realise that's the problem. [09:29] i wouldn't say they work fine with nvidia restricted, i still get compiz hangs [09:29] yay. more weirdness. [09:29] RAOF: 2) I have an OSS ATI driver ... and it crashes. [09:30] I have a real quick question will installing tonights updates to the ATi and Intel graphics drivers effect me, I'm using the nvidia-glx? [09:30] jmworx: Compiz shouldn't be crashing your system. It's not substantially more buggy than other parts of the system (but it does expose bugs in drivers, and those drivers are blacklisted) [09:30] i was messing around with compiz when x barfed. i alt + ctrl + bkspced to the login screen and it was fine. [09:31] Wouldn't the right solution be to either 1) Ask "do you want desktop effects (it looks nice but can crash your machine)" or 2) Install the packages, but disable it by default and let people enable it if they want. === jimmacdonald [n=jim@138-212-223-66.gci.net] has joined #ubuntu+1 [09:31] i logged in. and my screen is insane. its like i've been resizing it via the monitor controls, though i havent. also, there's like a half inch gap from where things appear, to where they respond to mouse clicks [09:32] RAOF: OK, so technically, it's not a kernel crash, but the only options I have when it "crashes" are "push the power button for 5 sec" or "hit Alt-SysRq-b". Even Ctrl-Alt-Backspace doesn't work. [09:32] jmworx: Basically, no.

Compiz should work on your card, and if it doesn't, we need to know the details so we can blacklist it. [09:32] RAOF: or maybe warning then... "We're enabling desktop effects on your system.

[09:38] So, where in the giant messy compiz-super-options-thing is "Increase # of desktops above 2"? [09:38] now if i could only remember what i was doing when it came on [09:38] Madpilot: uh. General Options > desktop size [09:38] i think [09:38] Madpilot: compiz is the future. Nobody uses more than 2 desktops in the future. [09:39] i was using four. until i was so cruely robbed of them. [09:39] Oh Dog, another huge set of options buried there. If I wanted this many tabs and such, I'd already be using KDE... (not entirely kidding...) [09:39] Oh wait, don't use alt-sysrq-b until you've done other things first. [09:39] For example, 'k'. [09:39] hahah. isnt it horrid? :| [09:40] jmworx, what i think they should do is put a video on the desktop titled something like "see what you can do" make it a short informational how to and show what is possible with the distro as a whole, what fusion can do, and how to enable it [09:40] then Renice, tErminate, kIll all, Sync, Unmount, Boot. Wait for hard drive activity to subside after a while after each of those. [09:40] jmworx, or make it play durring the install like old redhat installs did, they were only stills, but very informative [09:41] riotkittie: it really is. KDE-style dialogue boxen invade Gnome. Joy. [09:41] I had nvidia periodic freezing on this Core Duo laptop, but I fixed it by installing irqbalance. [09:41] Oh yeah, I hate some gnome apps: gnome-screensaver is the worst. [09:41] threethirty: Yes something like that makes sense. The problem with the current setup is that you experience crashes, have little hope of knowing what causes them (unless you're quite familiar with Linux already) and even if you do, finding the option to disable it isn't exactly easy. [09:41] I mean, WTF? Where the heck is "Options!". === wabiD [n=wabid@24-183-41-233.dhcp.mdsn.wi.charter.com] has joined #ubuntu+1 [09:42] Do people not need to change settings? [09:42] gnome-screensaver is so completely useless [09:42] (/me prematurely stifles the rest of his rant.) [09:42] DanaG: yah, there's some Gnome apps that go too far the other way - gnome-screensaver being the prize in that crowd - but generally I find the gnome dialogue boxes fairly well organized. Compiz's big manager aint. [09:42] is there a way to force the sidebar to open below the tab bar in firefox [09:43] It runs the rss-glx screensavers at a siezure-inducing, nausea-inducing, CPU-devouring non-niced 500FPS. [09:43] DanaG, what exactly did irqbalance do? [09:43] DanaG: Bug filed? That's quite a good point, it'd be easy to fix (probably). [09:43] I'm not sure, but it seems to be different subjectively. It's for balancing IRQs between different CPUs or cores. [09:43] jmworx, i can't argue that point, but i really think that if we dont have a 3d desktop by default soon ill never hear the end of it from my mac friends [09:43] how can i see if my bluetooth is recognized/installed ? [09:43] Any of you have rss-glx installed? Try this: /usr/lib/xscreensaver/solarwinds [09:44] RAOF: anyway, so it you don't want to be chased by a hoard of angry Linux grandmas, desktop effects should really be either disabled by default or *very* easy to disable... or maybe automatically disabled if Ubuntu detects a crash? [09:44] hfmls, isn't there an app in applications->accessories for that (i dunno i dont have bluetooth) [09:44] hfmls, test a connection? bluetooth preferences under system -> pref [09:44] Give it a try. [09:44] I've modified Flux to use framerate limit of 60, nice, and --regular preset. [09:45] it even activate === KenSentMe [n=jeroen@kensentme.xs4all.nl] has joined #ubuntu+1 [09:45] bluetooth [09:45] can't even [09:45] the light wont turn on [09:45] i love the gnome screensaver dev's reply to the bug report about it [09:45] threethirty: Seriously, how useful is it to have transparent dialogs that popup in a way you can read neither the dialog nor what's under it. At this point it's a system stability vs eyecandy decision and I can't understand why the latter got chosen. [09:45] "My view is that any screensaver theme [09:45] that requires configuration is inherently broken" [09:46] riotkittie: Seems reasonable to me. An xscreensaver hack theme generator is on my TODO list :) === schreder [n=pixl@c-9f92e255.175-1-64736c14.cust.bredbandsbolaget.se] has joined #ubuntu+1 [09:46] jmworx: That is by no means the default settings. [09:46] riotkittie: gnome-screensaver dev might well be insane. Only explanation for that opinion I can think of. [09:46] Oh well, it'll be fun to watch the reviews with Gusty comes out... [09:46] But try those rss-glx ones..... === pecisk [n=pecisk@78.84.139.234] has joined #ubuntu+1 [09:47] DanaG: Cool, tried with --maxfps 60. Bug filed? [09:47] RAOF: What isn't the default setting? (effects definitely were enabled by default on that laptop I have) [09:47] I had to manually edit /usr/share/applications/screensavers. === h1st0 [n=histo@unaffiliated/h1st0] has joined #ubuntu+1 [09:47] jmworx: "how useful is it to have transparent dialogs that popup in a way you can read neither the dialog nor what's under it" [09:47] Oh, and compare Flux with random preset to Flux with Regular preset. [09:47] Well, I just confirmed that Muine is still broken in Gutsy Beta. Meh. [09:48] The regular preset is quite soothing -- and I think it's far better than any other preset, and far better than Apple's Flurry. [09:48] what happened to modprobe after latest update? And why is my wireless card not working? :P [09:48] sudo modprobe ipw3945 [09:48] sh: /sbin/ipw3945d-2.6.22-13-generic: not found [09:48] FATAL: Error running install command for ipw3945 [09:48] Madpilot: It depends on how much you stress the "requires". He's not arguing that you shouldn't be able to configure it, just that if the defaults don't work, you need better defaults :) [09:48] schreder: You haven't installed linux-restricted-modules for your kernel? [09:49] RAOF: Maybe I exaggerated a bit, but that behaviour I was describing *is* the default. [09:49] Actually, I need to go take a shower and then go to bed. Perhaps I'll file the bug tomorrow. [09:49] RAOF: I can't argue with that, but a number of the screensavers do require some sort of interaction - even if it's just deciding how many bouncing cows you want to watch :) === buz [n=buz@84-73-66-71.dclient.hispeed.ch] has joined #ubuntu+1 [09:49] Or deciding where to get pictures. [09:50] RAOF: or maybe it's just the state it froze in, though. === buz is looking for owners of dell notebooks who can't play sound in gutsy [09:50] (half the popup dialogs I got would trigger the freeze) [09:50] jmworx: That may be the case :). No window is transparent by default, unless possibly it's in the middle of an animation. [09:50] raof, hmm that might be why... though I checked with lsmod and that module does indeed get loaded :S [09:50] buz: I might be able to help. Got an hda-based card? [09:50] I think I will post a comment about irqbalance, though. [09:51] jmworx: i know how to fix it, but i'm considering mailing mark shuttleworth about it, it's a disaster if not fixed before release [09:51] buz: got choppy sound or no sound at all? [09:51] DanaG: ya, that one irritates. I also liked xscreensaver's ability to choose *which* screensavers were added to the "Random" mix [09:51] anyone know how to fix bash tab completion? ex: sudo apt-g won't autocomplete but it was just a second ago? [09:51] but you cant really have a set default where there are an infinite number of whatevers. and forcing a default which cant be changed... is silly [09:51] Madpilot: *That* is something I don't like about gnome-screensaver, yes. [09:51] buz: what model BTW? [09:52] latitude d830 (but i'm listening to mp3 on it this very moment, after installing alsa 1.0.15rc1) [09:52] ubuntu devs don't want to commit fixing it [09:52] and as far as i know, the ubuntu preloaded inspiron is affected, as well [09:52] buz: BTW, don't bother emailing anyone. Ubuntu rarely fixes anything until the next release anyway (though they can still break stuff in updates) [09:52] buz: But *what* is the problem? [09:53] What bug is about the periodic temporary freezes? [09:53] well the well known hda-intel fuckup means nearly everony with a recent dell notebook wont get sound [09:53] including the people who bought a ubuntu preloaded machine [09:53] which in my view, is a pr disaster waiting to happen [09:53] buz; WHAT KIND OF PROBLEM? [09:53] is there a fix for having to click to see panels on login yet?

They should be installed automatically though after a kernel update if user has them installed prior to the update ;) [09:54] Oh, another thing cool with Linux: two-finger scrolling, and two- and three-finger tapping. [09:54] schreder: They are (if you've got linux-generic installed), you just got an incomplete update. [09:54] I use my touchpad 100% of the time, and my nice Logitech MX700 0% of the time, approximately. [09:55] buz: Funny, I never got that one.

[09:56] yes [09:56] same with dell [09:56] Dog, the deeper you get into the giant compiz-options thing the worse it gets. [09:56] who got ubotu to list the stuff about the bug and how, never saw an ! [09:56] Can anyone try this for me begin typing sudo apt-g and then hit tab let me know if it auto completes.

It took more than 6 months to get then to apply my 2-line fix! [09:59] Can anyone try this for me begin typing sudo apt-g and then hit tab let me know if it auto completes? === DanaG uses aptitude. === RAOF uses zsh. [10:00] RAOF: Apparently, it doesn't make them fix regressions (that soundcard worked on Feisty before the update) any faster. [10:00] sudo something does not autocomplete [10:00] buz: Does in zsh :) [10:01] i think i'll try mailing canonical directly, personally i dont care much about fixing the issue when it comes up, but the n00bs wont be able to do that === allbert [n=allberto@124.82.118.82] has joined #ubuntu+1 [10:01] jmworx: Yeah, I remember that.

Either they get fixed in the next release because "upstream got updated" or the bugs stay there forever. I don't think any of the reports I filed ever changed anything. [10:02] so I installed Firefox using Adept, then I installed the JRE for firefox using Adept, except Firefox is still telling me I need to install plugins when I go to java.com [10:02] jmworx: i've seen a few fixe [10:02] d [10:02] but in general, you're right [10:02] the worst showstopppers seem to get attention [10:02] DanaG: I understand that people use certain thing I'm just wondering if this is a bug with gutsy or if that tab completion will work [10:02] anything beyond "system crashes" wont [10:02] alright guys think I've messed up my codecs or something cause I can't watch videos anymore. I hear them, if anyone can help me figure this out I'd appreciate it [10:02] RAOF: What do you mean "what *took* so long"? It's still not fixed [10:02] jmworx, buz: :(. *I* fix bugs [10:03] RAOF: then how about fixing that dell sound bug [10:03] Oh yeah, for sudo, you have to edit /etc/bash.bashrc to enable it. [10:03] RAOF: its not like the bug report doesnt contain numerous reports of how to do it [10:03] and if you guys fear regressions, at least provide an extra package that fixes it [10:03] buz: Which are "update to a new ALSA version, breaking other stuff (including suspend to ram)" [10:04] Well, just reverting the update would already be a plus! [10:04] is there a fix for having to click to see panels/nautilus on login yet? [10:04] So, in bug 150443, one guy mentions that crapiz CAN do switch-workspace-with-mousewheel, but it's not enabled by default. Anyone got any idea where that option hides in the giant compiz-messy-options thing? [10:04] Launchpad bug 150443 in libwnck "Compiz in Gutsy Beta: No workspace switching with mousewheel" [Wishlist,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/150443 [10:04] wabiD: I don't think so, it's beeing looked at. [10:04] Madpilot: VP Switch is what you're after. [10:04] weird [10:04] DanaG: what exactly would I be editing in there? This worked in fiesty [10:04] RAOF: alsa-driver-1.0.15rc1 fixes the issuea and does suspend to ram (later releases however do not) [10:05] jmworx: And breaking other stuff? [10:05] RAOF: what I find most annoying is that not only do I have to compile alsa drivers myself to work around the regression, but then every time a new kernel "update" is released, it just overwrites and when I reboot my box, sound doesn't work. === Amaranth [n=travis@ubuntu/member/Amaranth] has joined #ubuntu+1 [10:06] RAOF: Isn't the idea of updates to at least make sure you don't break things? This update killed every single HDA-based soundcard on x86-64. I doubt what it fixed was worth that. [10:06] RAOF: on the 'Actions' tab there, View Next/View Prev are already set to Button5/Button4 respectively, and the plugin is enabled - it should already be working, no? [10:06] jmworx: Ah, you're talking about a different bug. [10:07] RAOF: by "every single HDA-based soundcard", I mean "module won't even load because of missing symbol". Let's just say I've seen better. It's been broken for quite a while now. [10:07] (otoh, i do concede that alsa devs are somewhat, uhm, bad about breaking stuff) [10:07] jmworx: And where is your bug? [10:07] buz: well, Ubuntu devs should know better than making blind upgrades. [10:08] you'd think so [10:08] RAOF: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/120305 [10:08] Launchpad bug 120305 in linux-source-2.6.20 "[regression] Cannot modprobe snd-hda-intel following upgrade to Feisty" [High,Triaged] [10:08] but ever after the xorg debacle a year ago or so i doubt this [10:08] RAOF: I'm jmspeex BTW === emonkey-p [n=emonkey@edu-33.42.zhaw.ch] has joined #ubuntu+1 [10:09] RAOF: Yet, it took 6 months to get a 2-line fix to Speex that was causing 100% segfaults on amd64 (i.e. could break things more than they were). [10:09] OK, got to go [10:09] buz: That's why there's a proposed-updates repository now. === compwiz18 [n=adam18@221.223.234.188] has joined #ubuntu+1 [10:10] RAOF: i'd test stuff, but atm i somehow have my doubts if reports do help [10:10] buz: And not reporting *definitely* doesn't help :) === guardian [n=guardian@mar44-1-87-90-32-28.dsl.club-internet.fr] has joined #ubuntu+1 [10:11] so why arent bugs flagged as won't fix if the fix supposedly causes regressions? [10:11] buz: Because the fix doesn't necessarily have to cause regressions? [10:12] can i get my two virtual desktops to have separate backgrounds [10:12] That bug can be fixed in a way that isn't "replace Gutsy's ALSA packages with 1.0.15rc1" [10:12] i now, and it doesnt, but you claimed suspend to ram regressions being the reason for not fixing it [10:12] buz: No, that's the reason why the fixes proposed on that bug haven't been used. [10:12] I wish my brightness issue would get more attention. Perhaps I need to change the description to say that now it doesn't work at all. [10:12] any idea why Java doesn't work in Firefox after installing using Adept? [10:12] wabiD: no [10:12] sure, but to anyone affected by it, it doesnt seem like anyone is working on it === DanaG has always had to edit /etc/default/acpi-support.

[12:12] and when i set the encryption to wpa, i can connect to it with Mac OSX, but not with gutsy [12:12] martin_vazquez: Oh, this fun [12:12] martin_vazquez: decent dl times with wpa2? [12:12] martin_vazquez: And if you use WEP ubuntu with connect but not OS X [12:12] Right? [12:12] yes [12:12] Man I fought this for weeks [12:13] I don't know, [12:13] bazhang: no I do have it installed but I just started up the live CD to check the integrity and wen it restarted it booted into the live CD while I wasnt there lol [12:13] Luckily for me network manager got fixed so I can use WPA2 [12:13] not tryed whith wep [12:13] martin_vazquez: Mac can do wpa2 iirc..so why not stick with that for now? === redheat [n=redheat@82.201.170.228] has joined #Ubuntu+1 [12:13] clarkey: perhaps you should start up with the install, then read out what it say in ifconfig/iwconfig? you know those commands, right? [12:13] it isn't the problem, i'm now whith wpa2 without troubles in any OS [12:14] bazhang: I cant paste the results of those because I dont have a net connection is there anything specifically u want to know? [12:14] Cello, SlimeyPete, I just installed the Ext2 program and it's working great [12:14] now each time I try to access the swap partition I'm being asked to format it [12:14] if I did this will Ubuntu still be working ok [12:14] it only was a test, and I'm surprised that gutsy don't get connected [12:14] clarkey: can you use ethernet and try and configure the card, then try and connect? [12:15] bazhang: I dont think you understand NOTHING works [12:15] not even ethernet [12:15] and ethernet is usually my fall back [12:15] maybe is a bug on madwifi, or network-manager, i dont know [12:16] martin_vazquez: sounds like you can connect with a better encryption system on all OSes, and just want to know something rather esoteric--not sure if that is a very high priority bug for the canonical team--I imagine the bsod experienced by some users would be capturing most of their attention atm. Cheers! [12:16] bazhang I usually dont even hav wireless card in I was just trying in desperation [12:16] SlimeyPete, Cellojoe, are you there guys? [12:16] clarkey: ok, but you can still try and connect wirelessly via the terminal--want to give it a shot? [12:17] ok [12:17] clarkey: what's the wired device? [12:17] thats what I quoted before [12:17] guys, can anyon help me around here? [12:17] AR5212 [12:18] redheat: don't format--there seems to be a serious issue, though some of the experts probably want to weigh in on this... [12:19] ok so I shouldn't format the Linux swap partition, [12:19] redheat: during install, or just normal usage? [12:20] clarkey: open up a terminal and type in the command sudo ifconfig, followed by your password. [12:20] no normal usage, I just installed that program EXt2 FS, that let's you see the linux partitions under windows, all versions except vista, and when I open my computer, it show me the two partitions where linux is installd, the root partition, and the other one used as swap... [12:21] I can access the first one fine, but the second one I can access because it not format.. [12:21] redheat: so you are in Vista now? [12:21] no Xp pro [12:21] redheat: if you want to toast you Linux install, then format away--otherwise don't do it. seriously. [12:22] your, even [12:22] you know what, Il give it a try if it works..fine by me..if not..then I won be much screwed cause I don keep a lot of stuff there.. [12:22] gonna give it a try and come back to you.. [12:23] take care and thank you so much, and if SlimeyPete or Cellojoe are "lurking" somewhere say hello to them on my account.. [12:23] redheat: you're going to format your swap drive? how big is it? [12:23] like 2 GB [12:23] redheat: I wouldn't do that....you will regret it... [12:24] bazhang done that by the way is there a way I can just get around nm-applet [12:24] clarkey: what did ifconfig say? [12:25] hey if it works.it works..right? I'vee been isntalling and unistalling formatting and reformatting Ubuntu like crazy for the past two weeks and it works so perfectly, and I mean perfectly now..So one last trial won't hurt..but thanks for the warning.. [12:25] bazhang: mean I only use ethernet on that computer and I dont really need nm-applets features [12:25] ahh lots [12:25] ok take care and Il get back to you in a giffy.. [12:25] bye [12:25] clarkey: ok, but what did ifconfig say? [12:26] bazhang: what do u want to know? it lists eth0 ath0 wifi0 [12:26] clarkey: and you have a wireless network there? what encryption level? open/wep/wpa/wpa2? [12:26] open [12:27] clarkey: do you have it set to dhcp or static? [12:27] at the moment encryption is too hard with this stupid range extender I have I swear linksys should recall that product it has a fit with any encryption [12:28] well the router is assigning DHCP [12:28] and I guess nm-applet is trying to get one but it never does [12:28] clarkey: okey dokey...now try sudo dhlcient ath0 [12:28] its always listed as 0.0.0.0 in connection information === mcquaid [n=mcquaid@toronto-hs-216-138-233-79.s-ip.magma.ca] has joined #ubuntu+1 [12:29] oops, that should be dhclient..haha [12:29] my bad.. [12:29] dhlcient sounds like a quickly delivered wine...haha [12:30] clarkey: have you tried it? [12:31] btw, what was the output from the iwconfig command? [12:32] yea it reported no DHCP offers received [12:32] no from ifconfig [12:32] ok, not try the same with eth0. and the ethernet cable attached... [12:32] done it [12:33] not=now [12:33] same thing [12:33] says that no DHCP offers received [12:34] u sure it doesnt hav something to do with not being able to ifup and ifdown the connections? [12:34] clarkey: I can't believe that an atheros card can't get the wireless network...and that the ar5212 card doesn't work--who is the maker of the ethernet card? === martin_vazquez [n=martin_v@53.Red-83-35-71.dynamicIP.rima-tde.net] has left #ubuntu+1 ["Ex-Chat"] === Amaranth [n=travis@ubuntu/member/Amaranth] has joined #ubuntu+1 === magnetron [n=magnetro@unaffiliated/magnetron] has joined #ubuntu+1 [12:35] no Idea its old [12:35] google?

[12:36] thats what I thought about the realtec which was originally in there so I swapped it with this old one [12:37] nothing is working its really quite stuffed [12:37] clarkey: I have a realtek ethernet card that can connect no problem--might it be that the card is bad? [12:37] maybe but i doubt that two completely different cards are bad [12:37] and anyway it was working with feisty the day before [12:38] highly unlikely === aldin [n=aldin@loc-r2.team.ba] has joined #ubuntu+1 [12:38] I have two of the realtek cards aswell [12:38] its really weird [12:39] it seems to me as if it just wont accept an IP address [12:39] clarkey: if it was working with Feisty, then clearly it's an issue with Gutsy..strange that mine works and yours does not--does your ISP limit the number of computers that can share a connection?

[12:41] aldin, to run it from the terminal, compwiz --replace [12:41] compiz --replace, sorry [12:41] because that is the only thing I carried over from the feisty install [12:41] I like compwiz better...haha [12:41] are u sure, i know for replace but what windeco it will be i remember i typed & emerald --replace? [12:41] I type my username too much I think xD [12:42] with the & at the end.

It's recognised as not being shared, however when i browse the network the folders are still clearly shared [12:42] clarkey: no that probably is not it, though have you reconfigured the cards under gutsy? [12:43] aldin: is that working? [12:43] well I have fiddled with them alot tried giving static IP's etc [12:43] oho [12:43] and one thing more i have ati x200 card it says glxinfo|grep direct -> yes but says warning, glxgears works ok, is it improved OSS 3D drvier, last time it was imposible to have [12:43] without fglrx [12:44] aldin: did that command do it?

[12:50] clarkey: did you configure the cards? [12:50] I used amorak, its good. [12:50] but isnt it an KDE software [12:50] what do u mean by configure? [12:50] some people recommend running it from kde only [12:50] vmlinuz`, are you using gnome or kde? [12:50] gnome [12:51] vmlinuz`, you can use with from gnome [12:51] it loads a little slower, that's all [12:51] it worked for me with my laptop I had some problem with the wireless button not working in gusty so I just upgraded from feisty with the update manager [12:51] however, exaile (I use) and listen (haven't tried) are pretty good too [12:51] i know i can [12:51] but i've read somewhere that its recommended with kde.. anyways [12:52] clarkey: a couple of options: via the terminal, or the gui... [12:52] whats a small & fast audio program that can ran in the system tray w/o plugins [12:52] exaile [12:52] lets go GUI === socketbind [n=socketbi@217.119.125.206] has joined #ubuntu+1 === compwiz18 likes Exaile === kyja [n=kyja@c-75-68-187-223.hsd1.vt.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu+1 [12:52] Listen can too I think [12:53] thanks, installing it now [12:53] i'm trying exaile === redheat [n=redheat@82.201.170.228] has joined #ubuntu+1 [12:53] well I just got hear but the form of that sentance sounds like you think to fast [12:53] redheat: what happenin'?

[12:54] so I headed over to Ubuntu, and then used gparted to see what type of format it was made off... [12:54] redheat: thanks be...haha === ziroday [n=ziroday@unaffiliated/ziroday] has joined #ubuntu+1 [12:54] it turned out to be a format called, and check this out, linux-swap, I thought why not make it, for example [12:54] bazhang: sry just me and my acronyms i like caps lol [12:55] ext3 or ext2, but no sir, the file extension give to the swap itself is called linux-swap..now if I had used gparted to change it into something else..this means I won't have a swap anymore..and this means...my system is gone [12:56] clarkey: they're not popular here...look in one of the panels.. and you should see network manager, choose the option manually configure, and it will bring up a window... [12:56] you know it might work for someone who actually did partition the harddrive on his/her own.., but I when I install Ubuntu, I let it choose the partition and size I only just leave a part of my hard drive unpartitioned [12:57] !!!! Compize is rawkin for me now !! [12:57] and let ubuntu take full advantage of it [12:57] bazhang oh if you mean assigning a static IP I have done that no luck samething [12:57] redheat: just what I was trying (in vain) to warn you off..you didn't change it did you? hahaha [12:57] actually i have found out what was causing the problem with network manager [12:57] i totally dont get it why it was changed like this [12:57] nope absolutley not.. [12:57] and you were absolutely right [12:57] I stand corrected.. [12:57] socketbind: what was the problem? [12:58] the ethernet adapter was not managed [12:58] clarkey: I've tried to help you out; if you don't want to follow up on it.. [12:58] even with auto eth0 / iface eth0 inet dhcp [12:58] socketbind: that'll do it.. [12:58] at first, when I tried to format it from windows, I was puzzled to which file extension should I format it to? NTFS, out of the question, FAT32 absolutely not.. [12:58] in feisty it works [12:58] socketbind: it's not ifup--it's ifconfig [12:58] but it hit me when I came back into ubuntu to find that the linux-swap has a filextension of its own called Linux-swap.. [12:59] anyway i found out why [12:59] and dhclient... [12:59] in the debian backend [12:59] bzhang..thank you my friend..

[01:01] clarkey: nice to try..sorry we didn't get it...haha [01:01] I have a combination of entries in /etc/apt/sources.list and separate files under /etc/apt/sources.list.d [01:01] kling0n: no longer necessary with Gutsy--K or U buntu? [01:01] not sure whether this could be a reason for update-manager to stall though [01:01] bazhang: probably just one of those bugs that u never find the cause and the next update its fixed lol [01:02] clarkey: here's hoping... [01:02] maybe even a kernel problem or sumfin idk i really hav no idea [01:02] bazhang: originally ubuntu but with kde-desktop package installed at some point [01:02] yea heres to hopeing [01:02] kling0n: are you running the GNOME desktop or the KDE desktop at the moment? [01:03] gnome [01:03] went back :) [01:03] does anyone know how to remove an extra Desktop menu item entry in the places menu? [01:03] kyja: check $HOME/.menu directory [01:03] kyja: back it up first though [01:03] i like exaile :) [01:03] kling0n: with Gutsy, all those third party repositories are completely unnecessary... [01:03] thank you kling0n and for backup advice. I never do that [01:04] bazhang: no doubt [01:04] bazhang: prob is that the update-manager stalls though [01:04] on that note, does anyone know how to get only one icon per external volume to show up on my desktop? I've got 2 external usb drives, but it shows the icon twice for one and once for the other [01:04] vmlinuz`, good :) [01:04] not that I want to hang on to my 3rd party repos [01:04] no .menu directory though [01:05] I edited the meta-release inf as directed in the gutsyupgrade wiki page [01:05] kling0n: so you can't update at all--since the ISO install? [01:06] I've been getting the regular updates... but the upgrade path to gutsy isn't working for me [01:06] and does anyone have an idea as to why random apps suddenly stop accepting input from my keyboard(s)? [01:06] not sure what you mean by "the ISO install" [01:06] in an ideal situation, what makes network-manager to manage a network interface? [01:06] last iso install was 3 releases back :) [01:06] listing it as auto and dhcp or completely omitting for /etc/network/interfaces? [01:07] socketbind: iirc you had to omit/comment it a while back [01:07] socketbind: not sure whether that's still valid though [01:07] socketbind, nm is usally happier when it's omitted afaik [01:07] compwiz18: I had that same issue when I was dual booting with Windows...(not my choice.haha)--just formatted the whole deal and they went away--oops that was internal--yours are external--are they showing the various partitions of the devices? I bleieve Gusty does that now [01:08] strange because in feisty it is ok to leave it auto / dhcp and it gets managed [01:08] at least, last I used it it was happier that way [01:08] in gutsy, it only works when you completely omit it [01:08] kling0n: uh sorry, you did update-manager -c -d from Feisty? [01:08] tracked it down to the source code but i dont get it why was it changed [01:09] bazhang, I've had the same problem with internal ones too, but Ubuntu seems to be better with internal ones then Arch was, but they both want to show me icons for the external ones twice [01:09] bazhang: that's the step where i'm getting the stall atm [01:09] bazhang: so i'm still running feisty but upgrade path isn't working [01:10] compwiz18: if you an Arch user, then you are way above my pay scale..haha..showing partitions incorrectly perhaps?

[01:11] I got a monitor and wanted to try displayconfig so I installed Ubuntu, but displayconfig didn't work, but I'm still here anyway :P [01:13] compwiz18: I have a buddy who uses Arch, and he's complaining that the others are all too slow on his machine...haha. I could never figure out how to get Arch going..very tough distro to install for a newbier user like me.. [01:13] bazhang: that's what bi am trying to do... results so far: "running update-manager -c -d ; select upgrade; step one completes; gets message abuot 3rd party repos being disabled; stall on file 37 or 47, alternatively, out of 56" [01:13] bazhang, it is fast, a little tricky to setup though :) === bazhang wonders what compwiz18 thinks is very tricky... [01:15] kling0n: then clearly all the third party repos have to go--there's actually a very nice gui to do it for you--and to add the third party ones from canonical that include mscorefonts, java, non-free flash, etc. [01:16] bazhang: i'll give it a try [01:16] kling0n: do you have a ton of personal files that prevent you from doing a fresh install from the gutsy beta.iso installer disk? [01:17] bazhang: yup [01:17] kling0n: not backed up? [01:17] nowhere to put it : [01:17] :) [01:17] well.. not completely tru [01:17] true [01:17] i can do a backup [01:17] but i want to go with an ugrade path [01:17] we talking trillions of petabytes here? [01:17] upgrade even [01:17] hehe [01:17] no [01:18] 'tis a desktop system after all [01:18] backup could be managed [01:18] but it's not uptimal [01:18] optimal [01:18] there was someone on last night that had 200GB of unbacked up files that wanted to do the same as you...haha [01:18] lol bazhang, xorg.conf is something I consider very tricky ;) [01:18] hehe [01:18] yup [01:18] ouch [01:18] no doubt [01:19] saw him... thing is though, if it's not working for me, there's bound to be other users who it's not working for [01:19] compwiz18: what about a vanilla Gentoo install?

[02:57] brb [02:57] phaidros: if you place it in your grub menu file in the default option it puts it as a the root argument when you run update-grub [02:57] phaidros: might have to update initramfs too [02:57] Am I allowed to ask tech support here?

[02:58] kling0n: especially in for resume .. garn [02:59] phaidros: in principle you could replace root arg with /dev/sdX and just update initramfs [02:59] Aasimar: which wireless chipset? [02:59] phaidros: but vol_id can help you if that doesn't work [02:59] spr0k3t: sure, only gutsy has gnome 2.20 and we are here in ubuntu+1 :-) [02:59] tezem: you would be suprised [02:59] tezem: odd, do you know of anyone else getting the same thing?

[03:00] gnomefreak has secretly replaced his folgers crystals with Gentoo [03:00] ;) [03:00] spr0k3t: no but haven't searched yet [03:00] phaidros: did you change your boot partition ? === buzztracker [n=buzztrac@pelikan.garga.net] has joined #ubuntu+1 [03:00] kling0n: nope [03:00] hm [03:01] Aasimar: not much... open up a terminal and type "lspci | grep Network" [03:01] !update-initramfs > phaidros [03:01] kling0n: doesn't work :) [03:01] heh [03:02] did you try updating it ? [03:02] Aasimar: if that doesn't work, replace Network with "Ethernet" [03:02] Cant send private messages, and i dont want to copypaste big output, what do I need to look for? [03:02] kling0n: updating what? [03:02] hmm just about all pam-related packages are failing in my current upgrade [03:02] i sure hope this will work [03:02] !paste [03:02] pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic) [03:02] grep network still loading [03:02] phaidros: sudo update-initramfs [03:02] Aasimar: use the pastebin and post the link back to the channel [03:03] kling0n: did that, no change .. [03:03] phaidros: where does it stop ? [03:03] kling0n: I'm finding out the vol_id now and replace them everywhere I exchanged to sdaX :) [03:03] phaidros: try removing the splah quiet kopts [03:03] try the -u flag see if that helps [03:03] splash even [03:03] Aasimar: also, keep in mind the case sensitivity [03:03] kling0n: I see only things when removeing quiet splash _and_ vga as well .. [03:04] phaidros: remember to place it in the default options (entries with only one '#' in them in /boot/grub/menu file) [03:04] kling0n: than it stop after recognizing sdc (cd-rw) [03:04] have you got evms installed? [03:04] kling0n: after a while I get the initramfs busybox, yelling about root= and some more [03:04] http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39948/ [03:04] phaidros ok === slackern [n=slackern@81.94.95.51] has joined #ubuntu+1 === IndyGunFreak [n=ken@user-0cdv00n.cable.mindspring.com] has joined #ubuntu+1 [03:04] phaidros: probably root device related then [03:05] kling0n: ah! good point, that was a while ago a problem, maybe it came in by a dependency again .. [03:05] spr0k3t: maybe it's just a big in connection with networkmanger [03:05] you should be able to use the root/devsdX and update initramfs [03:05] kling0n: (evms) [03:05] I also have an ethernet device, but I can't connect it [03:05] Need to use wireless [03:05] anybody want to help me with this wlan issue while baz is afk? [03:05] tezem: either that or seahorse === hsystem-x [n=hx@24.138.247.142] has joined #ubuntu+1 [03:05] that's a keyring manager system [03:05] kling0n: yeah I used sdaX in menu.lst as well as initramfs settings and it does not boot .. *loogking for evms now [03:05] phaidros: not sure whether initramfs refers to uuids or devices [03:05] phaidros: ok [03:06] Aasimar: hmm... 5005 device. [03:06] kling0n: no evms .. [03:06] spr0k3t: hmm yes that's it maybe because I get two prompts and I guess the first one is the gnome one and the second the one from seahorse but isn't it the same program? [03:06] Aasimar: does yuur wireless show up in output from ifconfig and iwconfig ? [03:07] phaidros: update uuids and rebuild initramfs [03:07] remember to fix the default entry in grubs menu file [03:07] yeah [03:07] and run update-grub [03:07] Im on feisty live cd right now though [03:07] Aasimar: so where are you experiencing problems? [03:07] Gutsy [03:07] tezem: I don't think it's the same system... I think it's a different subset. [03:07] kling0n: step by step now. in #kopt I have root=/dev/sda5, nothing else changed. [03:07] phaidros: o [03:07] ok [03:07] kling0n: yeah I do UUID now :/ [03:08] okay....guys if anybody can help with this wlan issue, I'd really appreciate it [03:08] spr0k3t: no Seahorse is gpg and ssh keys only don't think it gets into the way of gnome keyring manager [03:08] kling0n: what does update-grub achieve? [03:08] does someone have a nice collection of nautilus-action scripts? [03:08] phaidros: i dont like it either but I had to get it to work [03:08] spr0k3t: basically just applies your default kopts to grubs menu file === rico [n=rico@124.106.199.247] has joined #ubuntu+1 [03:08] not the script folder scripts but for the actions menu [03:08] ah, nods [03:08] phaidros: might want to do a grub-install too [03:08] phaidros: if the version changed [03:09] hey, is anyone getting bad speeds with torrents too? (I've tried azureus, deluge and ktorrent) [03:09] phaidros: not sure whether it'll achieve anything though [03:09] and to update the uuid? [03:09] kling0n: ok, thanks. [03:09] command wise? [03:09] spr0k3t: uuid .. talking to me? [03:09] spr0k3t: as far as I've gone into it uuid for a volume is changed when you do a newfs [03:09] anyone really [03:09] OpenSorce: hang on a sec [03:09] bazhang, okay [03:09] but you can get the voluime id by using the command vol_id [03:10] rico, torrents aren't the fastest way to download, theyre meant to take off the pressure from a single download server [03:10] yes, but itrs very unhandy not *seeing* which partition it is :( [03:10] Aasimar: did you try defining an access point through iwconfig ? [03:10] phaidros: I agree [03:10] How do I do that? [03:10] phaidros: shows up correctly in mtab though [03:10] bazhang, going for a smoke...bbi 2 minutes [03:11] Aasimar: "man iwconfig" [03:11] I didnt get a wifi output on gutsy btw [03:11] Aasimar: depends on the torrent [03:12] Aasimar, I have a dual boot machine, when I download from my Windows installation I get decent 40k/s speeds average, even going to 200k/s sometimes [03:12] Aasimar, but when I boot to gutsy I only get 10kb/s maximum [03:12] kling0n: I see now a problem: I changed kopt as well as kopt_2_6 to root=/dev/sdaX, but kopt got changed back to the UUID by some package update (kernel? grub?), but kopt_2_6 is still sdaX .. this might confuse mkinitrd .. [03:12] Should I log onto the net from another comp so I can boot Gutsy and work from there? [03:12] phaidros: it gets changed by update-grub [03:12] phaidros: go look for the root option in the menu file [03:12] even utorrent under wine has bad speeds (yes I set up port forwarding) [03:12] with one # [03:12] rico: it's not a fault of gutsy... I average about 200-300k/s on a good torrent [03:12] two ## are comments === jussi01 [n=jussi@dyn3-82-128-184-134.psoas.suomi.net] has joined #ubuntu+1 [03:13] one # are applied as default options when running update-grub [03:13] heh funny how the OS gets blamed for crappy torrent speeds [03:13] rico: of course it greatly depends on the torrent [03:13] spr0k3t, any clue to where I can start looking? I downloaded the same torrents in my testing just to be fair [03:13] rico: maybe on your upload side you sent bad packets and were banned on several ip's [03:14] kling0n: yes I know. but if I set a #kopt as well as #kopt_2_6 I don't want any process to change that .. or should I? [03:14] rico: sure... start with using a non-standard port... somewhere in the upper 32000 ranges. [03:14] rico, try a torrent with as many uploaders as possible, and as few downlaoders as possible [03:14] I also think theres a plugin that chooses uploaders that are close to you [03:14] phaidros: sorry didnt understand that :) [03:14] and kling0n, kopt_2_6 is assigned to the kernel entries, but somehow initrd is confused I suggest .. [03:14] Should be faster then [03:14] OpenSorce: you back yet? [03:15] Hi, I'm trying to update a package and I keep getting: Depends: libc6 (>=2.6.1-1) but 2.5-0ubuntu14 is to be installed How can I get the latest libc? [03:15] fastest torrent I've ever seen averaged 1.2mbit/s [03:15] phaidros: I agree [03:15] but that was at work. === jussi|no2 [n=jussi@dyn3-82-128-184-134.psoas.suomi.net] has joined #ubuntu+1 [03:15] phaidros: get the default options right and rebuild correct initrd [03:15] kling0n: I set by hand kopt & kopt_2_6 (the latter is the only important here imho), why the heck is update-grub changing the former back to UUID? and: might the difference in those lines then confuse initramfs ? [03:16] phaidros: pastebin menu file pls === Knofi [n=martin@pD9E85323.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu+1 [03:16] spr0k3t, ill be right back, will log onto irc from my laptop [03:16] bazhang, yeah man [03:16] where is ubuntu pastebin ?

[04:30] 200GB? [04:30] haha. [04:30] 1 tera [04:30] for / , anything more than windows [04:30] 4 tera for the root [04:30] I'm thinking 6 to 10gb for / since i dont go above that anyway === mc44 [n=mc44@unaffiliated/mc44] has joined #ubuntu+1 [04:30] for /home, the rest of what / doesn't take [04:30] i am running on 12 gig for just root [04:30] rico__: oh you meant minimum--maybe for home about 20-30GB, if you can manage; for / maybe 8GB... [04:30] okay. [04:30] plus a little more for swap [04:31] I have my whole / (nothing separate) within 27 or so gigs. [04:31] cool. :) [04:31] and I always have 1gb for swap [04:31] I had 10 gigs for root and home, and then had to add 17 more for /var. [04:31] that's a fair number right? [04:31] for swap just times your system mem by 2 [04:31] eck.. i have 2gb memory [04:31] nice, but damn [04:31] But once I reimaged, I slapped /var back in with /. [04:31] dude, that's like 8GB [04:31] there has to be an easier way to set up 3D in Gutsy--it's just way too technical for the normal user. [04:31] Unless you have some obscene amount of ram and aren't planning to suspend-to-disk anytime soon.

[04:32] bazhang its actually very straight forward up until you start using restricted drivers [04:32] I no want an 8GB swap [04:32] bazhang, you mean getting xgl/compiz to run? [04:32] Breaking the ubuntu-desktop meta package by removing evolution wont kill everything will it and mess with my updates? [04:32] I use S2Ram and shut-down-entirely. s2disk doesn't have a whole lot of point to me. [04:32] mine worked right out of the box (with restricted drivers) [04:32] bazhang do u have compiz manager installed === _nand__ [n=ec4@138.202-128-194.unknown.qala.com.sg] has joined #ubuntu+1 [04:32] Evolution is no longer a 'depends' -- it's a 'recommends'.

[04:34] i never tried it with kubuntu, sorry, not quite sure how things go in that side of the fence [04:34] bazhang: everything can be run from in the GUI === vegas513 [n=vegas513@24-176-55-188.dhcp.klmz.mi.charter.com] has joined #ubuntu+1 [04:34] nzero: yes but the issue is getting the card set up, and downloading compizconfig settngs manager etc. [04:35] nzero: maybe in Ubuntu, but not Kubuntu. [04:35] use synaptic package manager ifound inside system admin to do installs [04:35] oh, I too find it weird that ccsm isn't installed by default [04:35] rico__: yup. pretty weird. [04:35] and for your restricted drivers go to system then admin select restricted drivers and enable it will do the install [04:35] hi, sorry to bother you guys but having a few problems [04:35] firstly, trying to add firefox in adept [04:35] nzero: right for GNOME; KDE not so much [04:35] everything that isn't already installed is just grayed out and i can't do anything with it === borg_ [n=olaf@80.149.17.21] has joined #ubuntu+1 [04:36] why do people use KDE again? [04:36] btw, just a weird question, but what do you feel like when you do an apt-get upgrade (or use update-manager)? happy that your packages will be updated or nervous that things will break? [04:36] whats the advantage, is there certain apps that it has [04:36] mine's more of the latter *shrug* [04:37] also [04:37] more pressing problem [04:37] hey amaranth do you know if there going to have the monitors and graphics card admin app ready by final [04:37] i just installed kubuntu 7.10, intending to dual-boot [04:37] but nothing besides kubuntu shows up in grub [04:37] Oh yeah, remember how vsync has now been disabled for Compiz? [04:37] therefore i can't get back to my winblows partitions [04:38] vegas513: you need to add all the restricted stuff by enabling the extra software repositories in Adept, then hit reload/fetch updates, and it will there to choose from, along with flash-non free, etc.; actually much easier from the command line, just download kubuntu-restricted-extras [04:38] ok...been a while since i attempted linux last...how do i add repos in adept? [04:38] vegas513: did you install the root kubuntu directory in the same partition as windows [04:39] I've fixed it by doing this: set compiz to no vsync, twice actual refresh rate; go to nvidia-settings and enable vsync; add to desktop session 'nvidia-settings -l' (lowercase l) [04:39] no, i resized my windows partition and added the / and swap [04:39] vegas513: go to adept, then click on manage repos, and then choose the ones you want to enable, then fetch updates. [04:40] gHa! hARI plUng... nUtz souND, l@cK of! ACK! [04:40] okay, sorry... [04:40] I'm done bedugging the sound problem for now. [04:40] bazhang: what ones do i add? [04:41] vegas513: the ones that are labeled canonical partner [04:41] bazhang: ok, thanks [04:41] now any ideas on the lack of windows in grub problem? [04:41] vegas513: my pleasure! [04:42] also...can i mount my ntfs partitions while in linux? [04:42] vegas513: where's the problem? j/k [04:43] vegas513: this is a bit trickier, since there is no gui to do it--are you ok using the command line? [04:43] yes [04:43] bazhang: are you helping with the GRUB problem or the mounting ntfs partitions issue? [04:44] vegas513: grub. [04:44] cool [04:44] k, have a command line open [04:44] do i need to log in as root? [04:45] vegas513: are you gnome or kde?

[05:23] hey, how can i update to gutsy from feisty [05:23] Amaranth: AIGLX: Screen 0 is not DRI capable [05:23] .. in Xorglog [05:23] GuHHH: When Gutsy is released, Update Manager will let you know and ask if you want to update. [05:24] phaidros: disable Composite [05:24] Amaranth: ah, ok [05:24] phaidros: that's why you should use the restricted-manager to do this stuff :P [05:24] Amaranth: Option "Composite" "0" .. is already [05:25] Amaranth: yeah, but restricted manager doesn't set dualhead for me :) [05:25] Amaranth: "any & name!=tilda" should work? [05:26] Creationist: what if i want to update for the beta [05:26] GuHHH: edit your sources.list according to the distribution you want to update to [05:26] mc44: *shrug* [05:26] Amaranth: pah :) [05:27] Amaranth: composite 0 means it is off, right? [05:27] phaidros: yeah [05:27] phaidros: before you installed Xgl did 3d acceleration work? [05:27] GuHHH: I'm not entirely sure, but I believe it's as simple as editing your sources.lst file and changing all occurances of "feisty" to "gutsy" [05:27] phaidros: xgl doesn't touch your xorg.conf so... [05:27] Amaranth: hm, did not check :/ [05:27] ah IC [05:27] phaidros: uninstall xgl and check [05:28] GuHHH: Keep in mind, though, that Gutsy is definitely not stable by any means... and upgrades often break systems; especially if you've used 3rd party repositories to install software. [05:28] Amaranth: and I just found in Xlog: * DRI initialization failed * (maybe driver kernel module missing or bad) * 2D acceleraton available (MMIO) * no 3D acceleration available :( [05:28] Amaranth: !name=tilda seems to do it. ;) === WorkingOnWise [n=workingo@68-188-193-183.dhcp.mrqt.mi.charter.com] has joined #ubuntu+1 [05:29] When running Compiz, how do I make the taskbar only show applications for the CURRENT desktop?

[05:33] Creationist: Then you can't, kicker doesn't support viewports [05:33] You serious?? Why not? [05:34] *shrug* [05:34] What's the point of multiple desktops if you still need to search through 10 entries in the taskbar to find what you're looking for?

[05:57] if I do OEM install from the alt disc will it let me pick which HDD to put it on? [05:57] Im not sure what the OEM install does exactly. [05:57] looks like a buggy message [05:58] I thought that OEMs could create some sort of config file and the installer would get defaults from it.

[06:00] Amaranth: the required size changed after I removed old kernels (old feisty .17) [06:00] Pierre: weird [06:00] first of all, my sound isn't working at all, and it appears the module isn' t included in the kernel, I believe it should be snd_hda_intel, but I can't find it [06:00] Pierre: pop into #ubuntu-devel and tell mvo about it === buzztracker [n=buzztrac@pelikan.garga.net] has joined #ubuntu+1 [06:01] this is an nForce motherboard with the MCP55 chipset === Dannilionz [n=danni@149.254.200.220] has joined #ubuntu+1 [06:01] uh oh, nforce [06:01] lol, well I got the striped raid drives working, that was tough =) === Vinconzo [n=vincent@c53750220.cable.wanadoo.nl] has joined #ubuntu+1 [06:02] hi [06:03] bazhang: the other thing is I can't seem to get any window decorations on my second monitor (this is two seperate geforce 8880 gtx cards, not one card with two montiors, and no xinerama on) [06:03] JediMaster: snd_hda_intel is included in the kernel [06:03] mc44: that'll be why I can't find it, now why isn't there a /dev/dsp? [06:03] JediMaster: *is* [06:04] JediMaster: you'll need to load the alsa oss driver [06:04] JediMaster: tried "lsmod | grep snd"?

[06:07] JediMaster: well I don't know what the problem is, but it isn't because hda is missing from the kernel as I have it here ;) [06:07] bazhang: what's the alt + f2 do? [06:07] JediMaster: that opens a window that lets you type in a command. [06:07] JediMaster: do you have linux-ubuntu-modules installed that provides snd_hda_intel ? [06:08] mlind: I have the restricted drivers, but I thought the others were suggesting it was built into the kernel?

[08:27] Pici Oh..I see waht your saying though..so when it comes to the up date then...is that where in I might have the issues? [08:27] reya276, wlan1 is my wireless card....the KDE Network Manager seems to think it's wired and so does iwconfig [08:28] lee_: No, Ask reya276 he was the one who mentioned the issues. [08:28] the gui no longer shows my realtek card even though I can enable it with ifconfig... [08:28] again very starnge, and you are using KDE with Ubuntu Gutsy Beta or Kubuntu?

[08:31] reya276, sad part is, everything worked fine on the 6.06 install...I grabbed the gutsy beta to be able to report all the new features :-) [08:32] lee_: yes the thing is Ubuntu/Linux and ATI drivers don't really get along simply because until now ATI did not have opensource drivers, but they do now and eventually things will function better once they release stable drivers. Right now the only thing you can probably do is try to use the effects under an XGL session [08:32] Seeker`: ^ nobody cares about your nvidia-new problems [08:32] :( === Seeker` cries === Razor44 [n=tasos@ipa132.13.91.tellas.gr] has joined #ubuntu+1 [08:33] OpenSorce: Well that's not very fair, you are basing this on a beta version to write this article, hell I would recommend this distro to new users, remember this thing officially comes out on the 18th of October [08:33] reya276 erg, how do I do that change from open gl to the other format? [08:33] reya276, all I've managed to accomplish thus far was getting banned from #ubuntu.....and NO....as I said I will revisit it when the official release comes out [08:34] OpenSorce: she's right. [08:34] bazhang, I agree with her....we'll look at it again on the 18th...maybe they'll get it working by then [08:34] OpenSorce: and people here have gone out of their way to help you--hope you mention that in your article. [08:35] reya276 erg......this is a pain full lesson lol [08:35] lee_: Well you have to first install XGL server which if you want to get more info and help on how to achieve this I would go to #ubuntu-effects and ask anyone there. [08:35] or at least break your box further..haha [08:35] bazhang, absolutely!!! This has been one of the most helpful chat experiences I've ever had [08:35] I agree, everyone here has been a great help [08:35] JediMaster: even moi...?

[08:38] OpenSorce: I understand, but again, you've should have waited until the official release, hopefully then you can recommend this distro to new users I would 100% [08:38] bushwakko, that makes me want to go trade in my Mercedes for a John Deere!

[08:40] if you can stand the compiling [08:40] well, the cpus are getting faster [08:40] OpenSource: they will and I do hope you come back and try it again, if anything try and stop by the #ubuntu-florida channel and we can probably solve your issue as there will likely be less people on this channel [08:40] bushwakko, hehe [08:41] reya276, well thanks so much :-) [08:41] well, but back to my question here [08:41] I need newer madwifi drivers [08:41] how to get it= [08:41] !wifi [08:41] Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs === fyrestrtr [n=burhan@pdpc/supporter/student/fyrestrtr] has joined #ubuntu+1 [08:41] and how do I get compiz fusion in, I can't find any fusion-icon packages [08:42] bazhang, I don't suppose this madwifi business would help my issue would it?

[08:44] if it's an ATI and you get a message stating you need the composite engine then you will probably not get it going, go to #ubuntu-effects and ask there they should be able to get it going for you [08:44] i hadn't noticed [08:44] but the restricted driver package doesn't recognize that I ahve that card [08:44] I got sound going finally... [08:44] yes, same issue with fiesty -- intel hda audio is not functional on boot.

[09:09] reya276: this site? http://releases.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/7.10/ [09:09] so I ran "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade && sudo apt-get install compiz compizconfig-settings-manager compiz-kde" [09:09] but where is compiz?

[09:13] FatMom: try: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart [09:14] bazhang: what they should do is have a room called #Kubuntu+1 for specific KDE issues this way there is no confusion, cause when I see Ubuntu+1 I only thing Gnome [09:14] savvas: I will try, need to reboot [09:14] I don't have a Launchpad account and found (and easily fixed) a bug in the update-notifier package if anyone with a Launchpad account wants to submit a bug report: Line 7 of /usr/share/gconf/schemas/update-notifier.schemas (in package update-notifier) is false/default> ; it needs to be false [09:15] reya276: I think irc channels cost too much..hahha [09:15] bazhang: Pretty sure everyone else does too specially when they don't know the difference, cause there are lots of newbies switching, nah dude I'm being serious.

[09:19] no other devices, FatMom ? [09:20] but why with the desktop it works fine? [09:20] both are 7.10 btw [09:20] Lynoure: right, which is why I was explaining to bazhang as to why I was confused about someone asking for an Icon for compiz fusion when in Gnome the there is an effects tab in apperance. so it was my fault for assuming, but you got to admit, #Ubuntu+1 is confusing [09:20] savvas: no [09:20] FatMom: well.. you could try and install ubuntu-desktop on the server and see if that fixes it, maybe it's a package installed along with the desktop and not with server [09:21] FatMom: you're using a router right?
