EvanCarrollwill heron have perl5.10?00:04
h3sp4wnEvanCarroll: Unlikely00:09
Tomcat_EvanCarroll: Quite unlikely, yes... it currently has 5.8.8 and we're beyond repo freeze.00:10
Tomcat_EvanCarroll: Also, hardy is an LTS release; Perl 5.10 has been out for two days. I wouldn't consider that stable. ;P00:13

tonyyarussoUsually if an alpha gets delayed it will be one or two days; anything more than three would be easier to just skip that one.00:31

tretleyeah that did nothing01:25
tretleif its any help when i upgraded to hardy I was missing apps like firefox01:26
tretleand evrything openoffice bar word preocessor01:26
infinitycircuittretle, i meant "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"01:30
tretleyeah01:30
tretleI remembered the command01:30
infinitycircuittretle, and if it gives an error message could you pastebin it01:30
tretlehavnt used ubuntu in awhile01:30
tretleit just give a success log for both01:31
tretlethe done, done done, 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 remove and 0 not upgraded01:32
infinitycircuittretle, so it only gives the error when you try to install the restricted drivers01:32
tretleyep01:32
tretlesynaptic runs without giving the error01:32
infinitycircuittretle, oh i see now the glx packages are on hold01:33
infinitycircuittretle, because of the new kernel01:33
infinitycircuittretle, i think your problem will get resolved in a few days01:33
tretleoh cool01:34
tretlewhat about firefox and openoffice uninstalling when i upgraded to hardy01:34
tretlecommon problem?01:35
infinitycircuittretle, that was related to a missing library for apt which got fixed a couple of days ago01:35
infinitycircuittretle, if you try reinstalling ubuntu-desktop that should fix the problem, or you can manually reinstall the missing packages01:36
tretlewhat exatly got uninstalled so i may reinstall them?01:36
infinitycircuittretle, i don't know sorry01:36

* DanaG has no audio when wine-ing WoW.03:58
bazhangwine has broken several individuals' audio iirc04:06
* Hobbsee would suggest cycling thru the various wine audio options, and seeing if any of those work first, *before* coming in here adn saying it's broken04:08
bazhangnot me, just reporting others in response to poster above04:08
DanaGI've tried ALSA, OSS, and ESD.04:11
DanaGOh, and I'm using PulseAudio.04:11
DanaGThat's probably part of it -- but even using pasuspender and oss doesn't work.04:12
h3sp4wnTry oss4 then you don't need any of that anyway04:13
DanaGoss4?04:13
DanaGAnd will it work with PulseAudio?04:13
DanaGI DO need pulseaudio, due to having multiple sound devices.04:14

HobbseeDanaG: it's the deafults, i think pulse got used as default04:34
DanaGHmm, even without PulseAudio, Wine ALSA is silent for WoW.04:34
tumbleweed__http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49118/ <--- probably explains why my multimedia keys aren't working04:35

DanaGYeah, I think so.04:37

taggiedoes anybody know what's going on with ati(fglrx) support in hardy? I've got two machines with radeon mobility cards (a firegl5200 and X1400) and neither is able to do anything with accellerated graphics. only Vesa or fbdev works05:18
DarkMageZtaggie, works here on ati 9600se. odd.05:24
taggiedarkmagez, you're using fglrx? if so, did you have to manually add it? gutsy used to jump up and down and make me use the restricted driver mgr. i don't even see that in hardy05:40
DarkMageZi can switch between ati & fglrx by using the restricted drivers manager. atm i'm on ati due to a minor glitch in fglrx.05:41
DarkMageZi don't know why restricted-driver-manager isn't detecting your x1400 tho05:41
taggieinteresting, i just checked synaptic and restricted driver manager wasn't installed by default. must be a new hardy thing05:42
DarkMageZshould have been installed by default :S05:42
taggiei installed it, and now it says the ati is checked enabled but in the status column says "not in use" same goes for my ipw349505:43

MoheroI have a question regarding bug "132877" which I reported back in September, regarding the USPLASH on GeForce 8 series cards, my monitor still goes out of sync when booting (which is quite frustrating) so I don't know if it's booting or not, the bug is still classed as NEW, I just really want to know if anything is ever going to happen with it, as it was in the Alpha Gutsy releases that I reported it (when I got my new 8 Series card)14:49
Picibug 13287714:50
ubotuLaunchpad bug 132877 in ubuntu "Gforce 8 series screen blanks "out of sync" during usplash boot" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/13287714:50
Moheroyep, that one, has any of the developers even looked at it? as there's no signs of it at the moment...14:51
bsmMohero: mine gets out of sync when I stop kdm... yours is right from the start out of sync?14:51
Moheroyes, after Grub, during the boot process.14:51
Moherowhen X comes up, the monitor comes up again.14:52
bsmdid you try disabling splash? :)14:52
Moheroso it's only during the Usplash, and also while shutting down.14:52
PiciMohero: Have you tried changing your framebuffer modes?14:52
Pici!fb14:52
ubotuInformation about changing your framebuffer modes in GRUB can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FrameBuffer#grub14:52
Moheroyes, disabling the splash I can "see" the boot process, but it would be nice to have usplash working.14:52
PiciNono, I mean setting a new vga=something mode.14:53
MoheroPici: no I haven't. I'll have a go at this when I get home, but as it doesn't work and the monitor goes out of sync, and I'm not the only one that has the problem, and out of the box it has the problem, i'd still class it as a bug ;) though I'll let you knwo the results of thanging the FB from Grub.14:54
MoheroI come from a Gentoo background, so I should be familiar with setting that up, maybe I should try a Gentoo install to work out what's going on, and if it's a problem with the FrameBuffer Driver for the NVidia Cards.14:55
PiciMohero: I think that the bug might be duplicate, because I have heard of the issue before /me looks14:55
Le-Chuck_ITAhi there14:55
Le-Chuck_ITAI am running hardy14:55
PiciHi there, so am I14:56
Le-Chuck_ITAsynaptics touchpad is not working and.... *aaargh* where is the Xorg configuration file :)?14:56
Le-Chuck_ITAThere is no synaptics in logs so I think I should enable it somewhere but not in /etc/X11/xorg.conf it seems14:56
Le-Chuck_ITAalso for the tablet, how does one enable input devices in xorg, with this new infrastructure I heard about14:57
MoheroLe-Chuck_ITA: the Xorg Config file is in /etc/X11/xorg.conf14:58
Le-Chuck_ITAI have no such14:58
Le-Chuck_ITAreally I am not joking14:58
Moheroreally.? hold on.14:58
bsmyou are running X, are you?14:58
Le-Chuck_ITAyes!14:58
bsm:D14:58
Le-Chuck_ITAI heard about this new configless X infrastructure14:58
Le-Chuck_ITAbut I don't know, may be I can just copy my old config file and X will use that14:59
Le-Chuck_ITAbut you all really have xorg.conf in hardy? If so, that's strange14:59
Moheroit still uses xorg.conf, it just uses some defaults, so if it breaks then it will still boot.14:59
Moheroi'm just booting my laptop and i'll tell you.15:00
Mohero:)15:00
PiciI have one, but I dont know if its using it15:00
bardyrLe-Chuck_ITA, just make and xorg.conf file15:00

MoheroI'm sure mine is in use, I know I've edited it on my home desktop, for my multi-screen Nvidia setup, something that the GUI's aren't too clever at setting up :)15:01

Le-Chuck_ITAdid that15:01

bigdog_any ETA for alpha 2?  Is it targeted for today, or will it need to slip until next year?16:34
bardyrhopefully not16:36
bigdog_bardyr: I understand if it slips,  It is software :-)16:37
bardyrbigdog_, yea and we can always use the live builds16:38
bigdog_I have a slow internet connection, and am just trying to save an upgrade step16:38
bigdog_bardyr: If it goes until next year,  I will go ahead and do the two step16:39
PiciCan either of you explain to me what the big deal about it actually hitting Alpha 2 is?16:40
PiciDo you want ISO images? Or something specific that was a milestone for Alpha 2?16:41
bardyrPici, the first alpha with kernel 2.6.2416:41
bardyrand i want and iso16:41
Picibardyr: But you can install alpha 1 and upgrade.16:41
bardyryea but too lazy16:41

PiciOkay, just curious.16:42
bigdog_Pici: I don't really want to go through two downloads for a new install16:43
bigdog_Pici: If I was currently running Alpha 1, it would not be such a big deal to me16:43
EvanCarrollPici: yes, more so because it is lts.16:47
EvanCarrollwho wants to use software that is needing update now, in 5yrs.16:47
PiciIs it still beta now?16:48
EvanCarrollNo perl 5.10 was released on ?wed?. It is considered stable.16:52
PiciEvanCarroll: This past wednesday?16:54
EvanCarrollPerl and Postgres have a pretty good trackrecord for using the word "stable". Postgres is in beta3, it will probably be released soonish too. Perl 5.10 is the first version with additional features in 5yrs.16:54
EvanCarrollPici: yes.16:54
EvanCarrollPg is comming upon 8.3 which will have the first significant improvements since 8.0, including Full-Text-Search, and Perl 5.10 includes neat things like switch statements, state variables, and better threading supporting, it also has a smaller memmory footprint, and a quicker execution because of the removal of cruft16:56
MoheroHi, again Pici: did you find out if my bug (132877) about the monitor going out of sync is duplicated?16:59
PiciMohero: I didnt.16:59
EvanCarrollPg 8.3 really has too much stuff to name but it remains unseen when it will be declaired stable before the last call date of Jan or whenever it is17:00
MoheroPici: ok, if you hear anything, just let me know. or if you could link my bug if you notice that would be appreciated. :)17:03
