Especially if things are broken! [05:08] (Calicoo/#ubuntu+1) I don't believe so. Just this: BusyBox v1.1.3 (Debian 1:1.1.3 -2ubuntu3) Built-in shell (ash) [05:08] (Evanlec/#ubuntu+1) it works but u hafta hold all the buttons down, its tough ;p [05:08] (hydrogen/#ubuntu+1) Vuen: why should ubuntu change a shortcut that has existed since forever? [05:09] (cyclonut/#ubuntu+1) evanlec - aways forget that combo... [05:09] (nomasteryoda/#ubuntu+1) Evanlec, no if you do it in sequence it will work [05:09] (Vuen/#ubuntu+1) hydrogen: same reason windows 95 got rid of a similar shortcut that has existed since forever: it's DANGEROUS. [05:09] (earlmred/#ubuntu+1) Calicoo, you have a livecd around? sounds like your initram is messed up perhaps [05:09] (hydrogen/#ubuntu+1) Vuen: its not dangerous. It's helpful. [05:09] (Vuen/#ubuntu+1) hydrogen: more than that, it gives no warning about what you've done. [05:09] (hydrogen/#ubuntu+1) Vuen: linux was not designed for the feeble minded [05:09] (Calicoo/#ubuntu+1) :/ Does that mean I have to reinstall? [05:09] (Evanlec/#ubuntu+1) cyclonut, i didnt believe it worked, cuz i press alt+printscrn and then typed reisub but it didnt work, i had to hold alt+prntscrn while typing reisub [05:10] (Evanlec/#ubuntu+1) nomasteryoda, well it didnt seem to work for me..had to hold alt+prntscrn while typing reisub [05:10] (erichj/#ubuntu+1) yeah, mac os is for the feeble minded. windows is for the apathetic [05:10] (nomasteryoda/#ubuntu+1) wow [05:10] (Vuen/#ubuntu+1) hydrogen: that's the most shortsighted thing i've ever heard in this discussion. ubuntu is designed for EVERYONE. [05:10] (jewbilee/#ubuntu+1) I've gotten everything for the desktop cube working other than actually seeing the cube and being able to rotate it, can someone help? [05:10] macosx is for rich people [05:10] Vuen: that doesn't mean linux was. === cellofellow [n=josh@69-71-170-40.mammothnetworks.com] has joined #ubuntu+1 [05:10] hmm tempted to try the sysrq trick to see what it does [05:11] DavoDinkum, apples don't cost anymore than than a dell with the exact same features [05:11] where did i mention linux, anyway? i said ubuntu should drop the silly shortcut. [05:11] hydrogen linux is just the kernel [05:11] jewbilee, ctrl+alt and middle mouse button drag [05:11] on the desktop space jewbilee [05:11] Konam: no... linux is /not/ just a kernel [05:11] Calicoo, no, you can rebuild it if you can get into / and /boot from a livecd [05:11] jewbilee: hit alt +f2 keys, then compiz --replace & [05:11] nomas: that doesn't work [05:11] Konam: the linux kernel is a major part of linux, but its not just the kernel [05:11] earlmred: can't get it to work. May be my laptop geyboard. [05:11] so what? apple has crappy DRM in their products anyway, and dell still bundle windows. i wouldnt buy from either of them [05:11] you mean GNU/linux [05:11] Konam: though I suppose I wasn't all that clear [05:11] bazhang, what did that do? [05:11] DavoDinkum: Dell sells Ubuntu PC's. [05:11] hydrogen linux is just the kernel [05:12] Go on... :) [05:12] ^ [05:12] jewbilee, started compiz [05:12] despite the GNU/Linux vs. Linux discussion [05:12] call me when they stop shipping windows [05:12] DavoDinkum, well you were the one who said apple was for rich people. personally, i buy Acers [05:12] I just bought a Gateway, but would have liked a System76. :) Best Ubuntu seller around. [05:12] lol alt-prt scr in gnome causes take a screenshot to come up [05:12] compiz was started [05:12] jewbilee: now hit alt + f2 again, and type emerald --replace & [05:12] incredible. "linux not for feeble-minded" -> "ubuntu should keep dangerous undocumented shortcuts". your logic is infallible. [05:12] DavoDinkum, that's bug #1 [05:12] i said osx was for rich people [05:12] Launchpad bug 1 in ubuntu "Microsoft has a majority market share" [Critical,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1 [05:12] =D [05:12] oh now the tirade is on again... [05:13] lol [05:13] DavoDinkum, there is no distinction between the two. since you can't legally have os x without buying a mac [05:13] yes you can [05:13] I have a simple question. How do I get an input box for the Deskbar Applet to show on the panel? [05:13] erichj: you can purchase the OS without owning a mac [05:13] you can't legally run it [05:14] but you can still buy it [05:14] The EULA says "Apple hardware only." or something? [05:14] yes [05:14] ill put an apple sticker on my PC then [05:15] what does Apple hardware have that commodity PC doesn't?

[05:21] can I get some help with an upgrade issue? [05:22] i new to linux or id hep u [05:22] cellofellow: if you want the input box in deskbar-applet, you have to install the old version. [05:23] Thx kazmosik. Maybe someone else? Upgraded from feisty to gutsy via the adept dist-upgrader... [05:23] sorry for the query vuen.. i'm still getting used to irssi [05:23] i just did that [05:23] Seemed to work mostly ok (I'm typing this from the system now)...

I expected some issues... lol [05:26] Sivananda: its a very fast moving target from here to final [05:26] nomasteryoda: wouldn't it be `sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude upgrade`? [05:27] I wish my brightness control would be fixed. [05:27] bash interprets the &&, not sudo. [05:27] The problem tho' is that I can not move forward now on continuing with updating... [05:27] not if you started the command with sudo [05:27] bug 121833 [05:27] so, you have to sudo twice [05:27] Launchpad bug 121833 in linux-source-2.6.22 "LCD backlight turns off between brightness levels during fades, and when on battery or at idle" [Low,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/121833 [05:27] cellofellow, not on my box [05:27] =D [05:27] It's really frickin' annoying.

[05:28] mine caches the password, but still needs a double sudo. [05:28] I managed to work around the bug, but then they broke the workaround. [05:29] nomasteryoda: Shouldn't that be sudo aptitude full-upgrade on a pre-release? :-) [05:29] My brightness keys are also broken. What gives? [05:30] See topic. [05:30] nomasteryoda: So any ideas on how to clear the issue with the database lock?

I can't see the extension manager in gutsy [05:32] Sivananda: Sounds like the package for libc6 that's in your cache is corrupted.

So I removed and downloaded jre-6u3-linux-i586.bin straight from java website and get same error with my application. [05:33] Sivananda: What's the output of "dpkg --get-selections|grep libc6"? [05:33] One thing I notice is the error says 'triggers-pendi' not allowed, but if I cat the mentioned file, the named word is actually 'triggers-pending'. Seems like something is cutting off the last two letters when reading the file...

[05:49] Dr. willis, I don't know. >.> I upgraded a couple days ago, then today I updated, rebooted, and it thrust me into BusyBox. I've never seen it before now. [05:49] Calicoo: nVidia? [05:49] Yes. [05:49] But it was working fine all day yesterday. :/ [05:50] Calicoo: Do you get a chance to get to the GRUB menu before you get to BusyBox? [05:50] It was just after I updated that it did this. [05:50] Yes. [05:50] contrast83: Anybody else report any issues with the latest dpkg perchance? [05:51] Gaah, I have to hit my brightness key 5 times before I reach the next brightness level. [05:52] I've tried running an earlier kernal, but that didn't help. [05:52] Calicoo: when you get to that menu, choose recovery mode, and once you get to a prompt, do "sudo apt-get reinstall linux-restricted-modules-generic-2.6.22-12 nvidia-glx" (or nvidia-glx-new/legacy depending on your card) [05:52] 7800?

[07:04] both ubuntu and windows work fine that way [07:05] but if my USB drive is off, grub gets error 21 and i cant boot at all [07:05] sounds like your grub is pointing to the wrong /dev [07:05] I wonder if GRUB thinks that (hd0) is your internal partition when you boot from the internal drive, but (hd0) is your external drive when you boot from it [07:05] contrast83: I don't think letting /boot be its own partition has anything to do with it [07:05] i have no idea [07:05] all im trying to be able to do is boot vista by default === upboardin [n=upboardi@ppp201-as1-spk.go180.net] has joined #ubuntu+1 [07:05] and if i want to use ubuntu, then chose to boot from my USB and have that launch grub or ubuntu [07:06] jewbilee: that's issue #2, we still have to get issue #1 first [07:06] vasuvi: if the partition /boot is on is on a disconnected hard drive? [07:06] ok === level1 [n=level1@129.210.189.134] has joined #ubuntu+1 [07:06] jewbilee, i'd start by booting off your vista cd, putting it's bootloader on, and then putting grub on over top of that from a livecd [07:06] or press e in grub [07:06] knetworkmanager is deleting mac addresses from knetworkmanagerrc [07:06] and you can edit which devices it's pointing at [07:06] like, there were there befor and now they are gone [07:07] get the partition names from your usb boot [07:07] contrast83: actually, if /boot is on the *internal* drive that might solve it too, but that would involve not only a reinstall, but partitioning.

Will we get it in an update after 7.10 or do we have to wait for like 8.04? [07:31] well, is there a way to reinstall the bootloader from vista? [07:31] especially considering im on my external hdd?

[12:09] im talking about laptops gnomefreak [12:09] Crozar: cant its not stable and your issue if bug was reported should be fixed by stable [12:09] m1lkc0w ouch, usually removing ubuntu-desktop just removes the metapackage and not everything else it's attached to [12:09] Eq|work: how would i check that?

[12:10] Crozar : the platform you're talking about is irrelevant. people without experience with linux in general, and ubuntu in specific should NOT use gutsy [12:10] Crozar: you choose to test gutsy do that report bugs [12:10] it's made fairly clear in a number of places. [12:10] awalton__: I've just removed the packages that were depending on dictionaries-common (e.g. openoffice-*) and reinstalled ubuntu-desktop to pull in all the missing parts [12:10] so in the device SAA7134, the only tracks are "Line-in, Line-in 2, Video" [12:10] can i install gutsy on my dishwasher?

I want my ni back. [01:42] and secondly, I don't seem to be able to access any of the ttys [01:42] kling0n: if people would think first than run gutsy or ask questions it could be much shorter [01:42] frying_fish: you probably have a wrong vga= parameter in your kernel options [01:42] and it seems to have a really distorted badly rendered magnified version of my X desktop when I try. [01:42] kling0n: used to work absolutely fine (i.e. when I had feisty on it 2 days ago) === kling0n agrees with gnomefreak [01:43] ok meeting time [01:43] frying_fish : gutsy and feisty are very different [01:43] however, I'm willing to accept with the new intel drivers this could be the case, as I have an i915 [01:43] and gutsy is beta quality, not ready for use by the masses [01:43] Eq|work: indeed they are, as I would have expected. [01:43] anyone knwo if vesafb is enabled by default in gutsy kernel? [01:43] is it bad if there is no such file or directory: /etc/init.d/alsa ? [01:43] did you upgrade, or did you do a clean install? [01:44] I'm not complaining, just wondering that since I've not found much in the forum yet if you guys happened to know if this is a common bug [01:44] I upgraded [01:44] hit sudo apt-get install alsa-base alsa-utils oss-compat [01:44] that's probably the problem. odds are your xorg config isn't set up right for gutsy [01:44] make a copy of it, then edit it [01:44] so its quite possible something is wrong, also as a side question related to gfx, now with the "intel" driver instead of the need for i810 I wonder if 915resolution is still needed. [01:45] kling0n, i didn't onlt have oss-compat [01:45] btw latest update made nvidia-glx-new package stop working [01:45] it generally isn't even supported [01:45] only* [01:45] Eq|work: yeah I re-ran dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg to see what I could change. [01:45] because restricted-modules wasn't being upograded [01:45] kling0n : that's just a timing thing [01:45] and /etc/init.d/alsa is still missing [01:45] hit: sudo apt-get install --reinstall alsa-base alsa-utils [01:45] frying_fish: if you're not getting terminal output before X loads it's not an Xorg issue [01:46] Eq|work: how so ? [01:46] Eq|work: ok, I just still had it because with the 1280x800 res the old driver didn't really do it and you need the bios hack to make it work, just wondered if thats not required any more [01:46] Eq|work: doesn't matter too much for me as i just installed it manually [01:46] kling0n : the restricted modules package either hasn't been uploaded yet, or something it depends on hasn't. [01:46] kling0n: I thoguht as much. [01:46] frying_fish: do you have any vga parameters to your kernel ? [01:46] Eq|work, still nothing [01:46] frying_fish : the lack of terminal output will likely be a vga/vesa thing [01:46] hit: I believe it's called /etc/init.d/alsa-utils [01:47] it is currently vga=791 [01:47] frying_fish: ditch that [01:47] yeah that should drop it back to the old 80xwhatever shouldn't it === sn0 [n=mrsno@unaffiliated/sn0] has joined #ubuntu+1 [01:47] yup [01:47] frying_fish : sounds like it's an incorrect mode for your display [01:47] Eq|work: frying_fish actually I experienced something similar [01:47] just gave up on vesa console for now :) [01:47] hit : /etc/init.d/alsa may not be a ubuntu thing. i know debian has it, along with /etc/init.d/alsa-utils, but that doesn't mean ubuntu will. [01:48] will see if I get the old one back, although it seems odd that it would work with the older stuff, unless its been broken. === iu__ [n=iu@91.140.136.107] has joined #ubuntu+1 [01:48] frying_fish: check for vesafb support in your current kernel [01:48] Eq|work: ok, but does this line tell you anything?

[01:49] hey... is there a way to make apt-get update only get the info for one repository and leave all the others the same?

[01:53] could be [01:54] could be it's trying a different fb [01:54] kling0n: restarted alsa and firefox, but same thing [01:54] could well be [01:54] there may be an intel-specific one that's having issues. [01:54] may well be [01:54] probably worth filing a bugreport if there isn't already one [01:54] might do [01:54] likely against the kernel, but not sure [01:54] hmm reminds me..

[03:27] Did anybody try to upgrade from Feisty to Gutsy lately. When I last tried (Tribe 5, was it?) it did not work due to a problem with libc6 upgrade! Is this still the case?

[03:30] I-hate-xp: nvidia-settings might be interesting too [03:30] nemo_work: Yes, Gutsy meets the libc6 version requirement. It looks like there have been some upgrades since the feisty release, but I can't say if they fix the brokeness or not. [03:30] benzon: yeah yeah. It should work though! And most people who use Ubuntu as a production environment will rather upgrade than clean install!

[04:16] Luke, I have that but only with kernel upgrades [04:17] MikeDX: that could potentially be the problems [04:17] I-hate-xp: if you want bullet-proof.. what are you doing in BETA? :) [04:17] Luke usually its a gfx card driver reinstall because of the kernel module compatibility [04:17] MikeDX: What fixed the problem once when I was changing the default res to 800x600 [04:18] how strange [04:18] savvas: hoho, just a guess [04:19] savvas: done with the module installation. [04:19] the thing is, one you can't use a driver, you have to reconfigure the xserver-xorg [04:19] I-hate-xp: ok, now naturally and not through ssh: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart [04:19] is there any easy way to download all of the source for a particular ubuntu release, without having to grab individual pieces? [04:19] I-hate-xp: are you doing this in a vm? [04:21] Luke: do you remember the reconfigure command? dpkg --configure ? === mon^rch [n=anonymou@S0106000fea33f1bb.cg.shawcable.net] has joined #ubuntu+1 [04:21] is dpkg-reconfigure an alias for dpkg --configure?

[04:22] correct, Luke [04:22] yea I've used that === Stormx2 [n=Stormx2@5ac8243c.bb.sky.com] has joined #ubuntu+1 [04:22] hi, on starting Kubuntu, apport informed me that kdeinit crashed, but that there was not enough free memory to send a report: http://img510.imageshack.us/img510/5691/kdeinitcrashqp3.png - this is what 'free' and 'ps aux' have to say on the issue: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/40159/ - it would seem to me that apache might be the problem, perhaps [04:23] I-hate-xp: how's it going? [04:24] savvas: odd, "there already appears to be an X server running on display 0 , blah blah " [04:25] that'll be /etc/init.d/gdm restart that did that === savvas scratches his head === sleepynate [n=nate@71.238.69.3] has joined #ubuntu+1 [04:26] savvas: where should i shoot?

[04:27] savvas: ok [04:27] savvas: rebooting......... [04:28] cross your fingers [04:28] (works for me :P) [04:28] savvas: btw, i also add 256M memory when replacing the old nvidia card. does it affect the whole thing? [04:29] it shouldn't === apothus [n=apothus@C-61-68-253-155.per.connect.net.au] has joined #ubuntu+1 [04:29] if you get to load the kernel, the memory shouldn't play a big part [04:29] savvas: still no graphic desktop.

[04:31] I'm wondering why bulletproof-x isnt coming up [04:31] savvas: i can feel that it struggled, [04:31] savvas: no blue, just dark screen. i am using an old monitor, philips 105s [04:32] well I can feel that something's broken [04:32] Whoopie: ping uswsusp [04:32] I-hate-xp: do this (no ssh): sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg [04:32] albert23: you did the patch? [04:33] savvas: can you figure out what are necessary to motivate a nvidia card? [04:33] I-hate-xp: when it's time to select drivers for the card, select "nv" [04:33] bazhang: yes I did. But now I have a problem: my swap is not recognized anymore [04:33] savvas: ok, i will do it [04:33] albert23: wow. so that is a real show-stopper bug then [04:33] I-hate-xp: I have no idea :\ the modules should help load it up [04:34] bazhang: possibly, I'll try on motu [04:35] albert23: hi [04:35] albert23: is the swap correctly set in /etc/uswsusp.conf ? [04:36] Whoopie: It looks like uswsusp killd my swap device. I had swap recognized, but now not anymore [04:36] Whoopie: the swap was in uswsusp correcly [04:36] so no swap with "free" ? [04:36] /var/log/syslog:Oct 10 16:10:35 BTO kernel: [ 56.749506] Unable to find swap-space signature [04:37] before 16.10 it was recognized [04:37] albert23: did you resume successfully or not? [04:37] albert23: could you do "sudo mkswap /dev/sdaXXX", reboot and try again? [04:37] With uswsusp the hibernate seemed successfull, but resume was just a normal reboot [04:38] I-hate-xp: hang in there :) === rpereira [n=rpereira@ubuntu/member/rpereira] has joined #ubuntu+1 [04:38] without uswsusp I got warned I did not have swap [04:39] albert23: ok, and to "sudo update-initramfs -k 2.6.22-14-generic" -c" [04:39] s/to/do [04:39] savvas: done reconfigure [04:39] Another point: when installing uswsusp, it regenerated all my initrd versions.

I can re-install uswsusp without problem [04:40] why can't I get screen brightness to work? :( [04:40] I can't think of anything else to try [04:40] albert23: would be great if you installed again and try the steps above.

[08:21] and glxgears crash's x [08:21] that's great === nicola_ [n=nicola@adsl-ull-214-60.49-151.net24.it] has joined #ubuntu+1 [08:21] I would've been happy to have just the features similar to expose, but it seems compiz can do so much more [08:21] expose <3 [08:22] what's the use to expose exaclty? besides looking cool [08:22] well, on a mac it's extremely useful === ryancr_ [n=ryan@h70-66-192-167.sbm.shawcable.net] has joined #ubuntu+1 [08:23] because you don't have a taskbar as in windows === vasuvi [n=vasuvi@75-172-75-31.tukw.qwest.net] has joined #ubuntu+1 [08:23] so if you've got many instances of the same application running, it's not convenient to choose between them without expose [08:23] if you use expose, you should use it to replace the taskbar. that's it is mighty fine [08:24] I just did an update and the new 14 kernel came in, now I cant' boot into it.

[08:24] whats going to be scary - a year or so from now - after everyone has made up a dozen + plugins.. theres going to be so much eye candy for compiz [08:24] !stages [08:24] The Ubuntu Kernel gets updated in stages. If you have the updated kernel, but do not have the corresponding restricted modules, you may be leaving yourself with no X when you reboot. If you have compiled binary versions of your video driver, eg from the nVidia site, you will need to recompile them for the new kernel. This is normal, and not a bug.

[08:26] do you use the rotating cube? [08:27] expo <3 [08:27] not expo, it's scale ;} [08:27] on first glance i have to say it didn't seem like something that would be extraordinarily useful === D123 [n=victor@CPE004010100002-CM014390042162.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com] has joined #ubuntu+1 [08:27] scale is nice, too. === nuked_omen [n=ad@89.108.5.205] has joined #ubuntu+1 [08:27] expo shrinks all the desktops so they all show up on one screen.. interesting.. but not too handy. unless ya like it i guess. [08:28] i think the cube's only purpose is to fill my husband with envy as he slinks back to his xp box [08:28] exp with my 2 wide screen monitors [08:28] riotkittie: yes it shows both the restricted-modules and the ubuntu-modules are installed for 2.6.22.-14 [08:28] well, that's the thing - it's useful when you have limited screen real estate [08:28] it was a life saver on my 1024x768 powerbook [08:28] which 'scale' are we refering to? [08:28] essentially made the small screen "bigger" === hoa3r [n=gerome@p5B057579.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu+1 [08:29] speaking of xp, i was surprised just how useless aero was [08:29] scale shows all the open windows; you can then choose them from the backdrop. [08:29] Shift-Alt-up resizes all windows and spreads them out on the desktop it seems.. but i release the keys and it pops back :) [08:30] i like scale. it's better than switching to each desktop to find out if something needs attention. [08:30] By the times its drawn them all - i could of alt-tab'ed to what i want. heh [08:30] you can configure that to do it with a corner of the screen as well. [08:30] well, that _sounds_ like expose [08:30] err expo. [08:30] riotkittie, yea. i just use the one desktop with 2 wide screen monitors.

I'm very new to Linux and only installed Feisty about three or four weeks ago for the first time. Now I want to know - when I get my copy of Gutsy, do I have to a clean install or is there some way of just upgrading my existing system? [11:08] Also, have you considered joining your local Linux User's Group? [11:09] hee. i'm a grouchy noob. :| [11:09] Draggin: upgrading is trivial [11:09] gnomefreak, going to logout [11:09] Draggin: Move your Home folder to a seperate partition. You'll keep almost all of your configuration stuff and all of your files, but you get the new OS. [11:09] zblach - how so? [11:09] dist-upgrade <3 [11:09] hope he renamed it first [11:10] riotkittie: i have had dist-upgrade fail catatrophically a few times [11:10] with no unofficial packages installed upgrade is easy [11:10] **catastrophically [11:10] Anyone have any hints on how to install the nvidia driver and not getting the "low graphic" dialog on startup [11:10] spasticteapot - what about installed applications? [11:10] I having a strange problem - just upgraded via the update-manager tool and after reboot the kernel refuses to mount any partitions except the root partition [11:10] stoffer_: that could be your hardware not so much software [11:10] zblach: do you have anything odd installed? [11:11] or atleast the xorg.conf has wrong values for your hardware === Loevborg [n=loevborg@dslb-088-064-073-185.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu+1 [11:11] the error is "Device or resource busy while trying to open /dev/sda5" [11:12] gnomefreak: true, but had it working under feisty, and can get it to work when just restarting x, but after a reboot I get the dialog [11:12] sda5 your swap partition? root? what? [11:12] even in rescue mode trying to mount these partitions manually gives the same error [11:12] Draggin: You'll need to reinstall. [11:12] stoffer_: gutsy X is overhauled [11:12] spasticteapot - no other option? There isn't an 'upgrade only' version of the OS? [11:12] stoffer_: what worked in feisty may not and most of time wont work in gutsy since bulletproofX [11:12] it is my /home partition, I can mount it fine if I boot the old feisty kernel or from other Linuxes [11:13] aigarius: did you reboot after kernel update? [11:13] gnomefreak: thanks, where can I get some info on this, since this is most likely the problem. [11:13] gnomefreak: yes. the boot is interrupted beause even fsck can not get to those devices [11:13] stoffer_: thats a good question, [11:14] Draggin: Programs only work because other programs are present. Linux is modular. [11:14] hey has anyone in here had any issues with a Radeon 345M graphics card and gutsy? I'm getting really bad graphics problems (wavy image, long black bar vertically down screen, split image) [11:14] aigarius: this was a feisty upgrade? [11:14] For example, Exaile! (like Amarok, but low CPU use) might rely on GTK1.3. Gutsy might feature GTK1.5. [11:14] gnomefreak: upgraded from feisty to gutsy using the "update-manager -d" [11:14] spasticteapot - may I ask you then - is there any 'urgent' need to move over to Gutsy from Feisty? [11:15] Not unless you're one of us poor bastards using late-model laptops. [11:15] aigarius: yeah figured that much but it intersting that you are having this issue === spasticteapot curses Intel for being stupid schmucks. === kevinO [n=kevin@66-227-221-83.dhcp.klmz.mi.charter.com] has left #ubuntu+1 [] [11:16] aigarius: the names of devices didnt really change from feisty to gutsy so you shouldnt be seeing that problem [11:16] Should I be using powernowd to try and adjust CPU stepping? [11:16] gnomefreak: the devices are there, but for some reason nothing can get access to them saying the devices are busy already [11:17] spasticteapot - hehe, okay thanks :) [11:17] aigarius: give me a minute im gonna think on this one a bit, there should be a fairly simple solution i just cant think og it [11:17] Draggin: Gutsy DOES feature Compiz built-in, which is quite nifty. === [Ramy] [n=ramy@196.218.248.133] has joined #ubuntu+1 === bdgraue [n=bdgraue@host-091-096-246-139.ewe-ip-backbone.de] has joined #ubuntu+1 [11:17] It's also the "LTS" edition, which means that it will be supported for at least 18 months or so. [11:18] spasticteapot - I've heard of Compiz, but I'm not too sure what it is... [11:18] gnomefreak: I am also seeing device-mapper errors in the log [11:18] It's like Expose on the mac.

[11:21] aigarius: a thought, boot recovery mode and do a dist-upgrade they rolled out 2 versions of one kernel in 24 hours wonder if that was why [11:21] you're probably the only one in the world who willingly uses it through rhythmbox [11:21] spasticteapot - sorry, tried checking out the compiz website, but it doesn't seem to want to load... And I'm afraid I don't know what Expose on a Mac is either :/ [11:21] I have the "power use" graph open, and it says I'm using 0.1 watts. [11:21] draggin: It sort of re-arranges all the windows on your screen. It's handy for swapping between multiple windows. [11:21] any of you got a xorg.conf sample file I can tamper with ? [11:22] There's loads of demos on youtube. [11:22] gnomefreak: I just did a dist-upgrade, but I will try to use the main mirror now [11:22] drag: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E4Fbk52Mk1w [11:22] spasticteapot - It's cooler than the advanced effects in Feisty? Cause those are pretty awesome already... [11:22] <[Ramy] > spasticteapot what are the plugins that related to real media files ? [11:22] aigarius: use uk mirror i know that one works [11:22] Draggin: I dunno. You might have Compiz installed for Feisty. [11:22] [Ramy] because it is not a commonly used format it may be a regression [11:22] [Ramy] : check if you have the w32codecs installed [11:22] Ramy: Search ".rm" or "realplayer" in Synaptic.

[11:47] either the install AP and dpkg for evms need modifiying or evms should not be installed automatically [11:47] do you write stuff with C then use GTK libs to create a GUI interface? [11:48] Davy_Jones, if speed is an issue then C can be good for that, however for many programs speed isn't really an issue. there are lots of apps that don't require much computational power, in which case it's easier to write and maintain them in a higher level language [11:48] lol - just a few minutes back ubuntu effectively ruled out access to my home directory all by itself, so the system went s*it [11:48] peepsalot: i see, good point [11:48] maintainability === spasticteapot [n=joe@adsl-71-150-249-116.dsl.mdsnwi.sbcglobal.net] has left #ubuntu+1 ["Leaving"] [11:48] anyway - at first, I had no problem running desktop effects === ratpoison [n=ratpoiso@ppp141-243.adsl.forthnet.gr] has joined #ubuntu+1 [11:49] but then I loaded win drivers for my monitor [11:49] <{Zeus}> why would you do that? :-/ [11:49] and everything went to hell, gdm included [11:49] Davy_Jones, if you aren't planning on hacking the kernel, IMO you don't really need to use C [11:49] sparsec: ...

[11:49] <{Zeus}> yeah [11:49] <{Zeus}> autoremove and autoclean are fine [11:50] but I can't get desktop effects to work now - the titlebar is always missing [11:50] sparsec: PICNIC [11:50] <{Zeus}> are you using meatcity?

[11:54] Davy_Jones, actually now that I think of it, AFAIK the gnome/GTK libs are based in C, KDE/Qt libs based in C++ [11:54] sparsec: nvidia or ati? [11:55] ratpoison: nvidia [11:55] ratpoison: 6800 [11:55] Davy_Jones, but there are bindings to program with those libs in other languages (such as python) [11:55] sparsec: well I have ATI, so I'm not that sure, but, do you have emerald window decorator? [11:55] ratpoison: I had, but I uninstalled it [11:56] then try gtk --replace [11:56] ratpoison: I didn't switch any emerald theme on [11:56] or somesuch [11:56] peepsalot: i see, that's good to know [11:56] it's not that, lemme remember [11:56] Davy_Jones, i guess C is a good language to know, I just don't do a lot of desktop app programming in any language [11:57] it's "metacity --replace" [11:57] or you could try sudo apt-get isntall heliodor and then heliodor --replace. Heliodor is (or was, I don't know if it's still there) [11:57] Davy_Jones, have you programmed in any languages before? [11:57] thanks, but the problem isn't switchnig back to decelarated desktop [11:57] a window decorator similar to gtk [11:57] metacity works fine === buttercups [n=me@adsl-70-224-59-73.dsl.sbndin.ameritech.net] has joined #ubuntu+1 [11:57] peepsalot: i have done QBasic back in high school.. and assembly programming at college [11:57] the problem is getting compiz to work like before :) [11:57] peepsalot: my work doesn't involve programming at all though [11:58] well if you don't have titlebars, it's not that good then, is it? [11:58] peepsalot: i have a talent for programming, got high grades with little effort on those courses, and taught a lot of my peers.. but i still don't have the interest in it [11:58] well of course not, that's why I'm running metacity right now :) [11:58] but I'd love to get those shiny effects back in all their glory :) [11:59] peepsalot: i'm taking Computer Engineering next January, and i'm gonna have to do C programming, so i thought why not develop for open source apps to make it interesting [11:59] Davy_Jones, why would you be an OSS developer if you're not interested in it? [11:59] peepsalot: cuz i'm talented :P [11:59] ah, ego boost, that's a common reason :P [11:59] peepsalot: OSS would make me interested.. cuz of all the contributors [11:59] Davy_Jones: Spare yourself some nerves and time and do some python programming instead of C. Do your homework, but don't get stuck with C for too long. [12:00] Davy_Jones, the nice thing about C is that it's a relatively small language by itself. of course you have to extend it with a thousand libraries to do anything useful though, so in the end it's a lot to learn === calavera [n=cal@195.Red-80-26-32.staticIP.rima-tde.net] has joined #ubuntu+1 [12:00] sparsec: what I'm suggesting is that you use gtk window decorator w/ compiz === fyrestrtr [n=burhan@pdpc/supporter/student/fyrestrtr] has joined #ubuntu+1 === buzztracker [n=buzztrac@213.251.133.67] has joined #ubuntu+1 [12:00] but I can't seem to remember which command it was exactly [12:01] ratpoison: I've been doing that before.
