nikolamHi. Does anyone use Iceape?00:52
nikolamI see packages for iceape on Hardy uses seamonkey as the base.00:53

^BiplanO^hi all02:36
^BiplanO^My nautilus crashes :)02:37
^BiplanO^does anyone have the same problem?02:39
^BiplanO^hellooo?02:44
DanaGMine doesn't crash too often, but my gnome-vfs is partly broken.02:44
^BiplanO^uhmmm my nautilus crashes on gnome startup...02:45
DanaGI haven't had that issue.02:45
^BiplanO^a nautilus window flashes 5 or 6 times02:45
^BiplanO^then it closes02:45
^BiplanO^and I have no icons on desktop02:45
nomasteryoda^BiplanO^, did you change the size of the zoom?02:47
nomasteryodai had that happen after last patch, but can't remember doing such a change prior to latest update02:47
^BiplanO^nomasteryoda, I did nothing...it happened after a recent update02:48
^BiplanO^I can start nautilus from the panel menus02:48
^BiplanO^but going into the Desktop directory causes it to crash02:49
DanaGHmm.  I use home dir as desktop, and I made Desktop be a symlink to ~ .02:50
^BiplanO^I see02:51
^BiplanO^maybe it's related to language?02:51
DanaGOr perhaps there's some video or audio file that crashes when thumbnailed.02:52
^BiplanO^I noticed there's a check for user directory names02:52
^BiplanO^I'm italian but I kept the english ones02:52
^BiplanO^uhmm no02:52
^BiplanO^I thougt about this02:52
DanaGHave you run Nautilus in console?02:52
^BiplanO^if I rename my Desktop and create a new desktop directory it doesn't crash02:53
^BiplanO^with the same elements in02:53
^BiplanO^it crasces from terminal...02:53
DanaGOdd.02:53
^BiplanO^it doesn't crash if i give02:53
DanaGAny debug messages?02:53
^BiplanO^nautilus --nodesktop02:53
^BiplanO^yes... a lot of libraries listed02:54
^BiplanO^:)02:56
DanaGYou could try setting "desktop as home dir" in gconf-editor.02:56
DanaGapps/nautilus/preferences/desktop_is_home_dir02:56
^BiplanO^uhmm ok... but It's not so comfortable to me02:57
DanaGAah.02:57
^BiplanO^anyway video preview works in other directories02:57
DanaGRight, that is a personal preference thing.  I am curious to see whether it crashes under that situation, though.02:58
^BiplanO^I'm curious too :)02:58
^BiplanO^seems to work better03:01
^BiplanO^now if I click on Desktop dir... the window disappears and appears again with the home dir content03:01
^BiplanO^but the home content is showed on desktop at least03:03
^BiplanO^weird03:04
ryanpganyone know if compiz is working with the latest fglrx stuff as of now?03:06
ryanpgthere was a missing t-f-p issue recently03:07
^BiplanO^it's not working03:07
^BiplanO^fglrx doesn't support the new Xorg03:07
^BiplanO^:(03:08
^BiplanO^I have problems on closing gnome sessions too03:08
^BiplanO^computer hangs03:08
^BiplanO^DanaG, it crashes when it sees an icon owned by root03:09

DanaGOdd.03:11
DanaGYou could try running Nautilus under gdb.03:11
DanaGrun 'gdb nautilus', and then hit 'r' to run.03:11
DanaGOnce it crashes, type 'bt' to backtrace.03:11
DanaGAnd then 'q' to quit.03:12
DanaG(remember about pastebin.)03:12
DanaGOh, and to get complete output, you may need to install related -dbg packages.03:12
^BiplanO^changing the icon's owner works03:13
^BiplanO^you mean that i have to install nautilus-dbg?03:13
DanaGI'm not sure if that exists.03:14
^BiplanO^me neither03:15
^BiplanO^it exists03:15
^BiplanO^Dana, I give bt full when it stops03:22
^BiplanO^but it seems that the package installed another executable for debugging... it seems there aren't symbols03:23
^BiplanO^http://pastebin.com/m35ca526603:24
DanaGActually, it seems like it may need some more -dbg packages.03:28
DanaGLook around #173 -- look for a something-gio-dbg03:28
^BiplanO^odd... if I set the owner of a file to root it doesn't crash03:29
^BiplanO^it crashes only with that icon03:30

aslanso I seriously messed up my system.... I installed the hardy kernel, and also some packages from it.. gcc etc..  well I tried to undo these changes and now I get an error when I try to install packages, saying it can't find the dependencies... any ideas how to rebuild all of apt?  I would like to avoid a reinstall13:11
nikolamHi, why Iceape does not exist anymore?13:16
nikolamaslan, you can deinstall programs that have trouble in packege dependencies, and you can set synaptic to prefer package versions from gutsy13:18
nikolamThen you can install gutsy versions13:18
nikolamIf you just need newer versions of some applications, i suggest you to install debian-reference13:19
ader10hardy should have a "merge" option when copying/moving files/folders. it's not exactly ubuntu's problem but it would be very nice.13:19
ader10imagine a 3 gb music folder13:19

nikolamand look for instructions on building .deb`s of newe application yourself : file:///usr/share/doc/Debian/reference/ch-package.en.html#s-port13:20
ader10you don't want to replace th e1 folder, just merge the 213:20
nikolamader10: Install Krusader file manager and use Tools>Synchronize13:21
aslannikolam: ya thanks, but that's not realy the problem13:41
aslanthe problem is that I can't get build-essential or any other libraries to install, they are all looking for hardy dependencies, which I am not trying to use anymore, I tried to switch back to gutsy.. it apparently didn't work.13:42
aslanSo is there a way to rebuild the apt package index so it knows to look for gutsy? I have run apt-get update, apt-get install -f etc...13:42

sn0IdleOne is this a hardy question, seems a generic support question?14:16
IdleOnesn0: this is hardy14:17
sn0ok IdleOne so what happens when you set it up, like you would with gutsy of feisty ? :)14:17
IdleOnesn0: I dont have gutsy or feisty14:18
IdleOneI am running hardy and I cant find where I configure my printer so I can print to a windows connected printer14:19
IdleOnesn0: jrib in #ubuntu has System>Administration>Printing on his gutsy install. Hardy does not have it . seems there is no printing support in Hardy at the momment14:20
sn0IdleOne im possibly wrong here but the printing dialogue may be a front end to samba/swat so you could possibly try managing the printer details manually, in samba14:21
IdleOnesn0: I installed swat but am not sure how it is used. I am able to connect to localhost:901 and it opens the swat home page and all but I do not see where I would add my printer14:28
IdleOnesn0: thanks for the help but I gotta go. figure this out later14:38

Assidcheck that out21:01
DanaGWow, DVD-Audio sounds crappy when downsampled to 16-bit 44100Hz.21:02
DanaGStupid resampling.21:03
DanaGJust let me play the **** file at NATIVE sample rate!21:03
Assidhow do i access that device?21:03
Assiddmesg says its not ready21:04
Assidanyone21:06
Assidokay is there a linux version of "safely remove device"?21:16
DanaGUnmount volume?21:17
Assidthat just unmounts the volume21:17
Assidwhat about for safe removal21:17
Assidsome kinda powering down the device21:17
Assidand after unmounting the volume the file browser just hangs :(21:18
crimsunAssid: unmounting it is sufficient.21:19
Assidokay it mounts as root21:21
Assidand i have no permission to delete :(21:22
DanaGHow would I go about getting PulseAudio to play the DVD-Audio file at native sample and bit rate?21:22
DanaGOh yeah, that reminds me of another thing: what happened to "USB Selective Suspend"?21:22
DanaGI mean, in the /power dir of a USB device under sysfs, there's only 'wakeup'.  There used to be 'state' also.21:23
Assidshouldnt this set to the owner ship of the person who mounts the partition?21:23
Assidit comes up as root21:24
Assidand now i cant delete stuff21:24
DanaGOh yeah, something cool: PulseAudio seems to have really low latency.21:24
DanaGPlaying the same file through paplay and aplay to the same devices leaves only a slight echo.21:24
Assidisnt that a bug?21:25
DanaGNo, I'd expect some delay due to processing.  It's just a small delay.21:26
Assiderr i was referring to it mounting as root21:27
Assid:P21:27
DanaGOh yeah, another odd thing: the channels seem to be mixed up.21:29
DanaGOr maybe that file was just a bit out of order.21:31
DanaGSource file is RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM, 24 bit, 6 channels 96000 Hz21:32
DanaGOh: "Due  to a limitation in libsndfile paplay currently does not always set the correct channel mapping for playback of multichannel (i.e. surround) audio files, even if the channel mapping information is available in the audio file."21:33

crimsunthat's configurable.22:34

Assidsame thing happens when you run a bash script22:38
DanaGAnd Pidgin freezes for a while on starting my gnome session.22:38

Assidwhen you run  a bash script.. wait 3 seocnds (anything that uses gksu) .. then you get an cancel /whatever window22:39

lymeca_bardyr: Are there any packages in them?22:49
=== nivek_ is now known as nivek
lymeca_The reason I ask is because I run an Ubuntu mirror at my college and I just started mirroring hardy22:50
lymeca_And I want to mirror everything in hardy22:50
lymeca_But if there's nothing to mirror in those other 4 sections then I won22:50
lymeca_'t add them to my debmirror command22:50
RAOFThose are empty for the moment.  Until hardy gets released22:50
lymeca_Makes sense.22:50
DanaGDoes backports-modules contain anything in Gutsy now?22:51
bardyrlymeca_, i dont think there will be any before hardy is released22:51
lymeca_Is there a single location that explains the technical differences and 'rules' for which packes go in gutsy, gutsy-updates, gutsy-backports, gutsy-proposed, and gutsy-security?22:51
lymeca_And do each of those five sections each have their own 'main' 'restricted' 'universe' and 'multiverse'?22:52
DanaGOh yeah, and it still irks me that folding@home taking cycles from higher-priority apps is considered "by design".22:52

Oli``Oh I'm being a twerp!22:58
Oli``I was sshed into Dreamhost >_<22:58
RAOFOli``: Of course, it's entirely possible that xorg.conf doesn't exist on your system.  X now is pretty good at auto-detection.23:00
Oli``nah, I had one... obviously the Dreamhost servers don't... nor do they have gedit (something that was really confusing me)23:00
crimsunDanaG: err...l-b-m has always contained /something/23:00
DanaGAny modules, I mean?23:01
crimsunDanaG: and amarok works fine with pulseaudio.23:01
DanaGNot when I've used amarok -- I'd get this freezing on pause.23:01
crimsunIt's xine-lib's unmaintained pulse plugin that sucks.  Use esd instead.23:01
DanaGAnd if I used "Global Hotkeys", it 'd entirely kill my keyboard.23:01
DanaGesd stuttered last time I tried, but I can give it another try.23:02
crimsunmeaning, set xine-lib to use esd as long as pulseaudio-esound-compat is installed.23:02
DanaGBut for now, exaile is good in that using it lets me not have any KDE apps -- that was the only KDE app I regularly used.23:02
DanaGMixing GTK and QT apps bugs my sense of aesthetics.23:02
crimsunit's moot with Qt 4.23:03
DanaGOh yeah, that reminds me: I installed KDE4 on the old laptop with S3 TwisterK ("Savage" driver), and I was glad to see that desktop effects works with it with xrender.23:04
crimsunDanaG: I'm not sure what you mean by "any modules", since it has always contained alsa 1.0.15rc3.23:05
DanaGOh, I never noticed that.23:05
crimsunin fact, it was updated to post-1.0.15 not too long ago.23:05
DanaGMy current Gnome theme is Fedora 8's "Nodoka" theme, with a darker color setting.  Too bad there's no QT-GTK engine (i.e. the reverse of GTK-QT).23:05
RAOFDanaG: That engine is actually pretty cool.  I'm closing the Debian ITP for it.23:07
DanaGHmm, capture still stalls on my STAC9250.23:07
DanaGAnd another odd thing is that pc speaker only works right after resume from suspend, and only until I change any volume slider on my onboard audio device.23:09
DanaGI don't use pc speaker anyway, but that behavior is still odd.23:09
zokethat reminds me, are we going to feature steal from Fedora ?23:09
crimsunall distros borrow from each other.23:10
