[01:00] Updates just removed Evolution... mistake? [01:01] I would bank that it will be back... might have some issues [01:01] ok. [01:01] but i'm just a user [01:01] been using the dev version of ubuntu after they reach alpha 2 or so... then continue to upgrade as patches ocme out [01:01] come [01:47] Hello, shouldn't Hardy Alpha4 be ready now ? [01:47] nyone have Stroustrup's book handy? [01:47] *Anyone [01:48] What's with, like, [tour.proc] or [tour.loop] or [tour.ptr]? === amblin_ is now known as amblin === amblin_ is now known as amblin [02:31] hi [02:31] anybody get suspend to ram working in Hardy? It does suspend, but does not resume :S [02:34] bummer [02:36] yes :) [02:42] EmmerP I think there is a blueprint for improving suspend/resume [02:42] for the alpha 4 of tomorrow? :) [02:44] pidgin breakage in the lastest update? [02:45] just updated about 10 mins ago and rebooted [02:45] can anyone else confirm this? [02:45] what sort of borkage? It works fine here. [02:45] phin@skeletor:~$ pidgin [02:45] Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped) [02:52] can't reproduce it [02:53] odd [02:53] wonder whats causing that.

[03:02] anyone else have conflicts between gnome-settings-daemon & gnome-control-center ? [03:06] (sorry in advance if this has already been asked a billion times) seems gnomes-settings-daemon package is trying to overwrite /usr/bin/gnome-settings-daemon, which is also in the gnome-control-center pkg.... not sure how to proceed. ( I did try to 'dpkg --force-depends --purge gnome-control-center' & 'apt-get -f install' but had no luck...any suggestions ? === ajmorris is now known as ajmorris|AFK [03:07] bluedrake have you searched in launchpad ? [03:07] it could be a bug [03:07] * DanaG finally fixed suspend when on battery. [03:08] It took mucking around in /etc/default/acpi-support. [03:09] SAVE_VBE_STATE=false # was true [03:09] POST_VIDEO=false # was true [03:09] SAVE_VIDEO_PCI_STATE=true # was false [03:09] DanaG, I beg of you to please document that and post that somewhere [03:10] When you change things like that, it's good to comment the defaults so you can go back to them. [03:10] I have been trying to get suspend on my old laptop for a long time now [03:12] zoke,no luck on launchpad. gonna file a bug report now [03:12] bluedrake: i just had the same error [03:12] it could be a packaging error [03:13] No changelog for gcc or g++ or cpp. [03:13] this pidgin error does erk me though [03:13] i do use pidgin quite a bit [03:13] yeah, seems to be [03:15] * DanaG still has pidgin working. [03:17] ya im not sure [03:17] seems to be a glib issue [03:17] but nothing else is broke [03:32] phin: can you get a bt? [03:32] running gdb? [03:32] well looks like i worked past the packaging problem. small victory for me, but if anyone else cares to know what i did, just ask :-) [03:33] yes. You'll likely need the dbg symbols. [03:34] ya i pointed to what it fails at. [03:34] it points to a glib error [03:35] well, is that with the dbg symbols, though? [03:36] it doesn't seem to be, at least. [03:36] how would i get that? [03:36] crimsun: any idea what'd make my system fail to boot past the "usplash starts" stage (even with splash disabled!) when I disable my TPM chip? [03:36] phin: add the in Synaptic [03:36] add the repo* [03:36] DanaG: err, no. At least not without a lot more detail. [03:37] aah. [03:37] It goes to approximately that point, then hangs on a black screen, oddly. [03:37] I don't have time right now to test it in more detail, though. [03:38] crimsun: so after i install this, run gdb pidgin-dbg? [03:40] s/-dbg// [03:41] i.e. just run it normally. The backtrace will be more useful. [03:42] crimsun: ok got it, i'll pastebin the output [03:42] http://arslinux.pastebin.ca/885807 [03:45] ok i just ran continue [03:45] excuse my lack of knowledge with gdb [03:45] heh [03:45] hmmm [03:45] interesting [03:45] running continue, has made it work [03:45] but i still cannot get it to run manuall [03:46] im going to try this again without gdb [03:47] just typing pidgin at the cli gives me the same issue [03:47] perhaps any thoughts? [03:47] the last debug msg gave me the same glib error i had before, btw [03:49] dpkg -l libglib2\*-0 libgtk2\*-0 pidgin|awk '/^ii/ {print $3}' [03:49] http://arslinux.pastebin.ca/885813 [03:49] thats the complete gdb, btw, with working pidgin, while running that way [03:49] k [03:50] 2.15.4-0ubuntu1 [03:50] 2.12.6-1~hardy1 [03:50] 1:2.3.1-2ubuntu1 [03:50] sorry for the scroll [03:50] matches mine. [03:51] interesting that it runs by executing it in gdb, but not when i just "click the icon" [03:52] does it persist across a logout/login or reboot? [03:52] yes [03:52] very interesting. [03:54] how long to alpha 4? [03:55] crimsun: agreed [03:55] hello there [04:22] There is 8.5 GB available, but 8.5 GB is required. [04:22] wtf? [04:22] It should give a few more significant digits, methinks. [05:18] Wow, Pidgin crashed, but only after sending a message via MSN. [05:51] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron/Alpha4 [05:51] yea! [07:01] Now I see what you mean about broken Pidgin. [07:02] Now I have it broken, too. [07:02] I'm in 'finch' at the moment. [07:10] Back to older gnome-session... fixes all. [07:12] heya === JSharp_ is now known as JSharp [08:16] anybody using powerpc here? [08:26] gnome-settings-daemon was recently updated. It segfaults if gnome-screensaver isn't installed [08:28] gnome-screensaver is a 'suggested' btw [08:29] where did evolution go? :/ why are some 2.21.90 packages uploaded but not all?

[09:10] BUGabundo: the left click currently does nothing at my install [09:18] yes I can, ThomasNovin [09:18] you too have to set ui it [09:18] sudo dpkg-reconfigure gnome-applet [09:19] that should have been sudo dpkg-reconfigure gnome-applets [09:19] but still I don't get why gksu or update manager change it..... [09:21] alpha4 will be released today right? [09:22] my guess, yes, elmargol [09:24] BUGabundo: ah, got it. very nice. [09:24] yep [09:24] are you running hardy?? [09:25] can you confirm that gksu or UM sets it to OnDemand? ThomasNovin ? [09:28] BUGabundo: Yes... also added comment on LP. [09:37] let me check it...

I always have the latest version [09:58] if pidgin would do that...

[10:19] ohh.. updates of the dependencies [10:19] gnome can do that to you [10:20] I murdered an install with the mac global menu bar hack recently [10:20] they should have made it one big metapackage [10:20] ...and I should have listened to my instinct and left it alone [10:21] The last alpha said it came with firefox 3 beta2 [10:21] but it came with firefox2 [10:21] I hope that doesn't happen this time [10:21] it's going to be sweet when I can use firefox with scim [10:21] gotta have my japanese-anthy [10:24] it came with both I had it [10:24] FF2 and 3 [10:24] gnome did nothing to me [10:24] what are you ranting about? [10:37] ohhh [10:37] interesting [10:37] I guess I mistakenly assumed it would be the default [10:37] and I was actually 'ranting' about various things.. mostly my excitement for the future of firefox 3's gnome integration [10:38] and the global menu bar panel applet.. [10:43] Ghe, firefox3 and gnome... [10:43] For now, they can't even keep the FF-window on the right workspace :) [10:44] hmm [10:44] do you think it'd be a good idea to just, like, fork the gui?

[16:14] Pici: no, i've reinstall it after to be sure [16:14] any ETA for alpha4? [16:15] Pici: i'm not sure that pb is from gnome-settings-daemon, but maybe from dbus or something like this. Pidgin wont start too with a strange message [16:15] and some panel applets don't crash the first time they are launched [16:18] Jeansch, lots of people are having that problem [16:18] lots of people complaining about pidgin, too [16:18] seems to work alright [16:18] launchpad says a fix for the gnome-settings-daemon thing has been released :-/ [16:18] pidging locks the screen for me. :( [16:18] FrankQ: pidgin runs if you launch it in a strace [16:18] that's silly :D [16:19] FrankQ: i know :D [16:19] Maybe Evo will too... it does the same thing as pidgin here [16:19] FrankQ: but i need it [16:19] why?

[16:48] open bugs/problems etc? [16:48] on launchpad I presume [16:49] but alpha 4 isn't ready yet [16:49] so upgrading won't get you to it entirely :) [16:49] FrankQ, why not?

[17:25] yeah [17:25] I'm kind of surprised no-one reported it. It's hard to know what the process is with the alpha. [17:26] rsk, FrankQ: Good to know. I'm going to use Irssi for now.

[17:46] are you getting that same error I mentioned above? [17:47] I don't really mind the errors, I mind the possibility that they might actually get into alpha 4 because they aren't being looked at :-/ [17:47] (that would be if you ran them from the command line) [17:47] ScislaC: yep.. [17:47] /var/crash$ ls | wc -l [17:47] 20 [17:48] Konstigt: I got pidgin to launch by doing "strace pidgin", but it wouldn't work otherwise... it doesn't seem to work for all programs though [17:49] yeah I found that out aswell this morning on ubuntuforums.. [17:49] Well, I guess the bug might have been caught but just in a private bug report. There aren't any proper/confirmed bugs on launchpad otherwise :/ [17:49] I just saw a comment on evolution's bug re: signal 5. saying that it's due to gnome-session setting G_DEBUG in order to get crashes from warning type bugs. [17:50] so should we file bugs on all the apps that crash? [17:50] with signal 5? [17:51] Pedro Villavicencio wrote 1 minute ago: (permalink) [17:51] I've sent this upstream at: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=513495 ; as a workaround for now you can unset the G_DEBUG environment variable, thanks. [17:51] Gnome bug 513495 in BugBuddyBugs "evolution crashed with signal 5 in g_return_if_fail_warning()" [Critical,Unconfirmed] [17:52] it actually works. if you set that variable in ~/.gnomerc you should be good. [17:52] Konstigt: g_log is broken ? [17:53] jeansch: Ah that wasn't me, I just pasted from a bug I created this morning which is marked private. [18:03] hey, has anyone noticed that DNS resolution has become much slower for Hardy in the past few days? [18:06] Not really, no [18:12] conn: might it have something to do with the cut internet pipe? where in the world are you? [18:12] Oli``, I'm in Brazil, and it's not related. DNS resolution is fine in Windows on the same (dual-boot) laptop [18:13] I see. Well I can't say I've noticed any problems here. [18:13] is aplha4 somewhere already? [18:15] Don't think so, rx4. Just check update-manger once every couple of hours [18:15] is that bug a blocker for alpha? kind of strange to release otherwise [18:15] (re: the g_debug thing) [18:15] I sure hope they don't release Alpha 4 with the crash issues [18:16] ScislaC: the pidgin crash issues? [18:17] the g_debug issue that causes pidgin/evolution/different stuff to crash [18:17] and the gnome-settings-daemon issue I guess [18:18] Oli``: i will ;-) [18:19] conn, I had the same problem once in gutsy, disabling ipv6 and changing some settings in sysctl.conf solved it [18:19] But why would it have to be a blocker? It's not effecting wider system stability is it? The fix for it would still be able to be applied via updates on a clean alpha4 install [18:20] Konstigt mind if I funnel through your thing to the forums to help other people solve the bug === ActiveOne is now known as IdleOne === nalioth is now known as to === to is now known as nalioth [18:47] hi guys, I'm in need of a little help here; I installed nvidia-glx-new (169.09 hardy package), but I can't start X when using the "nvidia" driver in xorg.conf, only works when I set it to "nv" [18:47] should I try installing with the nvidia installer from their site? [18:49] 169.09 killed my EDID [18:50] 169.09 worked here under gutsy [18:50] and monitor stopped working thru DVI [18:50] in gutsy i used nvidia's installer, I just thought I'd try nvidia-glx-new through the upgrade since it's the same driver [18:50] im just unsure whether i should run that installer again or if i can fix this one [18:50] i don't know [18:51] :( [18:52] no issues on nv18 geforce4 mx 4000. i say your issue is fixable if you have a better card [18:54] I have a 8600M GT [18:55] how should I fix it though? :) "startx" jsut brings me back to where I was after about 3 seconds, when I have "nvidia" driver in my xorg.conf [18:55] some error about nvidia.ko not found [18:57] cant help you. just saying my card is old compared to that 8600. [18:57] kk [18:57] :) [18:58] uninstall and try nvidia installer... not a big deal [18:58] kk [18:59] it works then you set to nv cuz this is disabled failed nvidia driver [19:00] there is a known bug about it. check: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-23428.html [19:00] this disables i mean [19:01] that is not a hardy issue anyway.. that bug dates back to 2005 [19:09] ок its already 1th feb here, i guess a4 release date is failed [19:17] why would the release date have to go according to your timezone's standards [19:17] well, why they not mention release timezone? [19:18] Alpha 4 will be released when its done. [19:18] and... if they are in europe.... like site said about ubuntu HQ... then its close to my timezone [19:40] Maybe change the topic title... [19:40] hm? [19:41] since all questions here are about when a4 is released [19:48] hi all :) [19:49] How can I have this -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/Hardy/Alternate/BasicIdeals ? [19:54] i wish someone prioritizes and fixes the damn lcd auto brightness bug [20:00] l3on: you can't I guess [20:00] err is a new update out already? [20:00] I've just found out that several sites are promoting the rumor that this is the 8.04 theme, or are at least alluding to the idea that this is said theme in progress. I apologize for any confusion, and I'm sorry to say that this is not planned to be the next Ubuntu theme. It has been passed it up to the art team, and there's a lot of work ahead for this theme. [20:00] !release [20:00] Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 18 months to 5 years. More info at http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/releases & http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases [20:00] !schedule [20:00] !hardyschedule [20:00] Sorry, I don't know anything about hardyschedule - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [20:01] l3on: so I think it are just ideas for new themes, not actual implementations [20:01] Ah ok... I understand... tnx :) [20:02] alpha4 out? [20:03] is alpha4 rolled out already? [20:04] I beleive they are still testing candidate disks. [20:04] Assid: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=682072 [20:22] i'd like to have that theme minus the color palette [20:23] boy this lack of key swapping is driving me crazy === jacobmp92 is now known as jacob [20:29] yeah gnome weather applet is fixed [20:31] isn't hardy alpha 4 supposed to come out today? [20:32] yeah [20:32] but if you have hardy installed already, its a moot point [20:33] yeah, i don't [20:33] all I know is I have a lot of fixes today === Spec is now known as spec-x [20:33] i usually wait until at least the fourth alpha to install [20:36] re-hi [20:36] is there still pb with gnome-settings-daemons pidgin, evo and ... ? [20:39] Jeansch: yea. but you can "unset G_DEBUG" to at least fix the pidgin crash [20:39] and possibly others but not sure [20:39] FrankQ: i know [20:40] FrankQ: i've found the "pb" [20:40] I just read that Transmission has been selected as the default .torrent client for hardy is this true? [20:40] FrankQ: it's in gnome-session and it's volonteer [20:40] i sent a mail to ubuntu-devel-discuss just now to get some info.. [20:40] g_setenv ("G_DEBUG", "fatal_criticals", FALSE); [20:40] heartsblood: quite possibly. it *should* be, as it's plenty good enough [20:41] heartsblood, it was a couple of weeks ago [20:41] IIRC. [20:41] Oli```, I thought that deluge was going to become the default in hardy. Was there something conspiring against it? [20:41] I sat in on the meeting but I didn't pay as much attention to the transmission talk [20:41] some elements of compiz stopped working [20:42] granted anything was better than the gnome client, but transmission? [20:42] i still got the cube though [20:43] looking for ccsm gave me simple-ccsm which does not work at all [20:50] Gnine: you mean you haven't ccsm installed? [20:54] i was running compiz without ccsm. after last update some features stopped working [20:55] i tried simple-ccsm out of curiosity to find out it did not run/load at all [20:56] so you need compizconfig-settings-manager [20:56] that's the package name [20:56] ccsm used to install that from the repos [20:57] I just did a search, and it shows as that full name [20:57] and even worst bug i just encountered: my partitions are not mounting [20:57] in synaptic, I mean [21:00] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4244450#post4244450 [21:00] !info linux-image-generic [21:00] well, in case anyone cares to help me in here. im open to all ideas [21:01] linux-image-generic (source: linux-meta): Generic Linux kernel image. In component main, is optional. Version 2.6.24.5.6 (hardy), package size 25 kB, installed size 52 kB [21:01] phin, its known issue, check launchpad and wait for updates [21:02] and welcome to alpha software :) [21:02] phin, btw does it work now? [21:02] phin, MSN was down earlier and i think it just got up a couple of hours ago, atleast in denmark === nev is now known as neversfelde|mobi [21:03] bardyr: it works when im running it from gdb [21:03] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=639641 [21:03] this thread seems to offer a work around [21:05] I just went back to an old gnome-session version. [21:05] oh thats what it seems to be? [21:06] The latest gnome-session + gnome-control-center broke stuff. [21:06] ya [21:06] I had to downgrade both together. [21:06] i had to force install some packages to get it to work [21:10] danag: may i ask how you went about that? [21:17] Hi all, have many people encountered Bug #182425? [21:17] Launchpad bug 182425 in compiz "Strange blue theme after upgrade to Hardy" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/182425 [21:25] hehe I wonder how many MB of text has been written today about the signal 5 crashes.. [21:31] partitions are not mounting. [21:35] Gnine: wow they are implemented that already, i was hoped for this in alpha 5 [21:37] mount-resistant partitions metasystem 2.0 [21:37] w00t [21:37] tokok, its included in alpha4? [21:37] ask Ghine [21:38] sorry Gnine [21:38] im just happy about gvfs and policykit [21:39] if they get it to work properly soon :D [21:39] system is not mounting partitions, how is that a feature? [21:40] Gnine, security [21:40] ;) [21:41] exactly! [21:42] security against against who [21:42] against everyone! spies everythere! [21:43] aliens [21:43] yes them too [21:43] and google [21:43] i hope this bug catches you by tomorrow [21:43] but i still think there tracker will index you!! [21:44] is there a new way to map network shares with nautilus now? my old bookmarks do not seem to work properly, and when i attempt to goto network:/// it gives me an error [21:44] err, when i click the Network Servers icon, under places, that is [21:44] err, security feature [21:44] phin, i think its broken atm with gvfs and alot of other code just being included [21:44] bardyr: thanks [21:46] gnome 2.22.1 will be included in 8.04/8.04.1 ? [22:14] ETA of Hardy4? [22:14] blehh, Alpha4 [22:14] lol [22:14] yesterday [22:15] Is the .iso out there yet? [22:15] no [22:15] ok [22:15] well... due to time collapse no [22:15] just look at https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2008-January/thread.html [22:15] k [22:15] if there's no announcement, no release [22:15] you mean.. [22:15] it doesn't just get scrapped, does it? [22:15] just delayed, right? [22:16] oh, ok [22:16] yes [22:17] I love network-manager 0.7! === bardyr_ is now known as bardyr [22:19] i had meet network-manager at disco and bring her home, we danced in moonshine, i love her [22:20] i had this annoying bug where i needed to manual turn wifi off and on and wait 2mins to get wifi working, nm-0.7 fixed that [22:20] good [22:21] now world is save [22:21] no, its saved [22:21] thanks for correction [22:21] np [22:23] gnome-app-install crash [22:27] how can I "force" Firefox 3 to crash for good? It has become irresponsive here, but it won't crash per se [22:35] anyone? [22:36] just updated, but don't see nm 0.7 [22:36] EmmerP, its not in the repos [22:36] ok [22:36] but have no problems anyway, so let's stick to the 'if it ain't broken...' adagium :) [22:37] EmmerP, arent you running and alpha? :D [22:37] looks like we like broken things :D [22:38] yea, i love them [22:38] i get sick if there isnt 10 potential breaking updates [22:38] a day [22:38] where can I expose/get feedback on something that seems broken to me, but it might be just user error, MOTU? [22:39] where is roadmap? [22:39] when is alpha4? [22:39] bardyr: I am, so guess I'm a lucky guy [22:39] !roadmap [22:39] Sorry, I don't know anything about roadmap - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [22:39] smallfoot-, wiki.ubuntu.com, and today [22:39] oh, only pidgin is indeed broken here [22:39] EmmerP, what part? [22:40] But just had a fully working skype call with both webcam sides open, while running compiz, so guess that's a proof of a pretty working system :) [22:40] alex_mayorga: Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped) [22:40] bardyr, when today? [22:41] alex_mayorga: at starting pidgin [22:41] smallfoot-, when a guy thinks its ready and pushes a button [22:41] smallfoot, the whole Hardy thing is more an "in-flux" kind of thing, if you're brave, there's no point on waiting [22:42] it has been pretty rock solid since alpha1 over here, but this is an all Intel box without fancy video cards or wireless [22:43] it has fared pretty well on an amd64x2/broadcom laptop too [22:43] same here [22:43] the gnome breakage (signal 5 trap) is "fixed" in the latest gnome-session. [22:44] with fancy gfx card and weird wifi-ndiswrapper card [22:44] make sure you log out and back in after upgrading. [22:45] i have a different report on that , crimsun [22:45] hello, is the hardy alpha 4 out yet? [22:45] we're currently discussing it in #ubuntu-devel [22:45] Gnine, sudo apt-get update/upgrade/dist-upgrade and reboot [22:45] cyrus82, #ubuntu+1 [22:45] cyrus82, nope [22:45] I've just installed the update to gnome-session, do you guys have a bug I should try?

[22:46] nope, no one knows [22:48] alpha3 sucked [22:48] yep [22:48] ill update to alpha4 asap [22:48] alpha4 was scheduled for today, was it? [22:48] yes [22:51] but its not out [22:51] im getting impatient :D [22:51] it won't be out til Friday at least. [22:52] ok, i'll get alpha3 then [22:53] just grab a live build [22:53] it should be more or less up2date [22:53] there are live builds? where? [22:54] cdimage.ubuntu.com [22:54] ah, theres only the desktop image [22:54] need alternate [22:55] cyrus82, grab live [22:55] sorry daily [22:55] there is not daily alternate install cd [22:55] no [22:56] http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily/current/hardy-alternate-i386.iso [22:56] ah sorry [22:56] just found it [22:56] great [22:58] <`Matir> are alpha 4 isos available yet? [22:58] no [22:58] :) [22:59] this is going to be a long day :D [22:59] `Matir: there won't be for at least a half-day [23:01] alpha 4 isos have been pushed back to friday [23:01] <`Matir> ok, thanks [23:02] it is friday now [23:02] since 2 mins ago [23:04] gmt+1 eh === bmk789_ is now known as bmk789 === hydrogen is now known as Apachelagger [23:09] No release today :( [23:09] :( [23:10] so, is that gtk bug fixed that crashed all major apps? [23:18] napsy_: Seems to be (it was gnome-session setting G_DEBUG apparently) [23:22] I'm downloading the Xubuntu Hardy Heron release. Is this the appropriate channie for questions/comments? [23:22] I think so, yes. [23:23] !topic [23:23] Please read the channel topic whenever you enter, as it contains important information. To view it at any time after joining, simply type /topic [23:25] * bytor4232 wants to contribute to the cause ;) [23:26] I figured putting one of my four desktops to use as a testing machine is a good cause ;) [23:26] So alpha 5 is coming out? [23:26] Yes, but not until after alpha 4 :) [23:26] doie [23:26] current release is alpha3 [23:26] thats what I meant [23:36] Any problem with cryptsetup(-luks) in Hardy? I get errormessages when mounting. I didn't get it in Breezy, Dapper, Edgy or Feisty. Didn't try in Gutsy. I went straight from FF to HH. === Apachelagger is now known as Hydrogen === tumbleweed__ is now known as _b_ [23:40] hm there's no gnome-session update yet [23:41] Strange; my gnome is no longer totally crazy. [23:41] !info gnome-session hardy [23:41] what does it say? [23:42] Nothing, it seems ubotu is down. [23:42] Anyway, You'd be after 2.21.90-0ubuntu2, which hasn't propogated to either of my .au mirrors, but is in archive.ubuntu.com [23:42] so i'll have to wait for mirrors to sync [23:43] Or grab it from u.a.c [23:43] ok [23:45] (2.21.90-0ubuntu1) [23:45] http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/gnome/gnome-session [23:45] well not here [23:46] That'll also take some time to be updated. [23:46] http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/gnome-session/gnome-session_2.21.90-0ubuntu2_i386.deb [23:46] Ding! [23:46] :) [23:48] alternatively, you could just do "unset G_DEBUG" for a couple minutes ;-) [23:48] then I'd have to run everything from terminal
