jeff1it's pretty stable, i have been doing regular updates from a tribe and it's been smooth00:00
Arwenok00:02
Arwenthanks00:02
burnerhow can 8.04 be lts and the "stable" one when gnome-vfs is deprecated for gio and gio is horribly broken?00:03
=== techII_ is now known as techII
TheInfinityburner: 8.04 is ALPHA00:05
TheInfinity-> just for testing00:05
burnerTheInfinity: no no, i get it... but i mean when 8.04 is finally released, how can it be the LTS, teh one that people flock to when it has a regression from dapper00:05
burnerftp:// worked in nautilus in dapper00:05
burnersmb:// worked in nautilus in dapper00:05
burnerneither will work in hardy if things don't change significantly00:06
TheInfinitymake a bug report00:06
TheInfinityand alpha means some things dont work00:06
TheInfinitykubuntu is atm happy crashing apps00:06
burnerTheInfinity: it's not a bug... it's gnome's roadmap00:07
burnergio is not going to work in gnome 2.2200:07
burnerhence, it won't work in hardy00:07
TheInfinityok, ... i'm kde guy, so i dont have a problem with it because konqui will always have it ;)00:08
HenrikLynggaardCan someone help with dual head and ati card ? I got problems with both (fglrx and OSS ati) drivers00:08
HenrikLynggaardOpen source ATI = many times the system start to hang... screen unresponsive but mouse can be moved00:09
TheInfinityall updates?00:09
TheInfinityand what says xorg log?00:09
HenrikLynggaardfglrx = small noise effect on screen like pint flashing dots around green text00:09
* burner might be a kde guy in hardy ;)00:10
TheInfinityhardy kubuntu is no LTS00:10
TheInfinitybecause of lots of fun with kde400:10
HenrikLynggaardlog didn't say anything last time, I will try and hang the system again00:10
HenrikLynggaardanything == no error reports00:11
TheInfinitywhich graphics adapter?00:11
flipstarTheInfinity: do you have kde4 installed ?00:11
HenrikLynggaardThe card is a ATi x80000:11
TheInfinityflipstar: yes, kde3 and 400:11
TheInfinityHenrikLynggaard: you used restricted driver manager to install it?00:12
TheInfinityflipstar: i love vmware ... so i have almost everything for testing ;)00:12
HenrikLynggaardTheInfinity, yes... and then aticonfig to get the xorg.conf sorted out00:12
flipstarTheInfinity: me too.. i have a strange app here .. 'knotify4' it takes a lot of ram but doesnt do anything..can you confirm that ?00:13
TheInfinitylets see ...00:13
flipstari thing it might have something to do with kde4 ..00:13
TheInfinityurgh.00:13
TheInfinitykde4 vm is downstairs on a usb disk00:14
TheInfinityif you dont use aticonfig ... ?00:14
flipstarno i got nvidia ..00:15
HenrikLynggaardTheInfinity: what is normally the preferred way of dual head'ing with ati ?00:15
HenrikLynggaardWell without aticonfig, I couldn't figure out howto setup xorg.conf00:15
TheInfinityHenrikLynggaard: i used xorg conf editing directly until now00:15
TheInfinitybut  hate dual head with linux at all00:16
TheInfinityin osx i make 2 klicks and everything works :/00:16
HenrikLynggaardI tried the screen and graphics applet, but I failed with my monitor. It would send one of the screens a wrong res and then I had to hard kill the system00:16
HenrikLynggaardI think it sent the wrong freq to y new monitor... perhaps somehting with widescreen support00:17

WorldBFreei have asked this question multiple times over the past week but havent gotten a response.  is there a way to boot hardy directly from my hd instead of burning to a disc.  I already have a working grub and am familiar with how to do it in other distros.  ive gotten close but the modules dont seem to load02:18

shirishhi all, does anybody what that project/idea is where one can pull updates from any machine which might have updates?06:20
shirishI know about apt-cacher-ng but that is for a dedicated machine06:21
RAOFshirish: You could look at apt-zeroconf, which is exactly what you want.06:21
RAOFAs long as it works.06:21
shirishRAOF: hey :)06:21
RAOFGoogle will get you to the right place.06:21
shirishRAOF: yup, there is/was also some blueprint, where they could be some hash-key or something to verify the package integrity & stuff as well, any ideas?06:22
DanaGAPt-zeroconfg just broke stuff for me.06:23
RAOFdpkg already has that built-in.06:23
RAOFDanaG: Yes.  It's quite fragile.06:23
RAOFBut when it works, it's seamless.06:23
DanaGI wish there were a way to say somebody's name with out going all the way to 'pinging'.06:24
shirishRAOF: I will definitely investigate about apt-zeroconf (atleast the idea) & see if there are any parallel work/ideas around that. If you guys know about something similar as in efforts please lemme know.06:24
DanaGI still want that time-changing wallpaper that Fedora has.06:24

qziohm, a question about aptitude/apt/synaptic - why is it so that synaptic finds more packages then aptitude?07:12
AssidDanaG: nah..the system goes into standby/goes off. and also the batter LED goes red means i better charge it.07:12
qzioAyabara: have you added the synaptics stuff in xorg.conf?07:12
Assidat times i dont even get enough notification to pull out the charger  .. and it still goes off07:13
Ayabaraqzio: no, I was about to ask about that. installed gsynaptics yesterday, but never found out what I need to add in xorg.conf07:13
DanaGAnybody here use Asus notebooks?07:13
qzioAyabara: i needed a extra inputdevice section for synaptics, and a sserverlayout section to point to synaptics07:14

rsklag in mirror mayb bardyr13:47
bardyrrsk, downloading from main13:48
bardyrrsk, the restricted modules are probably not ready, thats why linux-image-generic is not updated, but it does not make much sense updating the linux libc headers for a kernel you dont have13:49
rskagreed13:49
mateuszHow to install something from hardy for example kernel?13:49
bardyrmateusz, on gutsy?13:49
mateuszCan I add mirror and pin it on lower proiority13:49
mateuszbardyr: yes13:49
bardyrmateusz, well you can grab the individual packages and install it manual13:50
mateuszbardyr: I did but there are dependencies13:51
bardyrmateusz, grab them too13:52

rskyou make no sense14:26
mateuszlooks like that I will switch back to Deban14:26
mateuszpackages that I use in gutsy are too old14:26
rskwhy would you leave  working for debian for almost 10 years and then not figure out something that's easily avialiable on google and then 'go back '14:27
mateuszI dont understand what are you trying to say14:29
sveriwhat are you trying to say mateusz?14:30
rskmein either14:30
mateuszsveri: I asked if hardy is so buggy that I should not upgrade14:30
mateuszand I would like to know what are mirrors for hardy14:30
rskwhat is yo buggy for you?14:30

mateuszrsk: buggy means no  working desktop14:31
sverimateusz: for me it is not buggy, i am using it scince four days and it worked fantastic till now14:31
sveriat least kubuntu, i cant say anything about ubuntu, which is a bit more complicated i heard cause of the gvfs14:31

Skweeker_duceHello everyone.16:10
coz_Skweeker_duce, oh boy they just dont know how to say hi do they ? :)  welcome16:15
Skweeker_duceI guess not!16:16
coz_:)16:16
Skweeker_duceI just upgraded my Hardy install. Getting XKB errors when I log in now, though I haven't noticed anything not working.16:17
=== Skweeker_duce is now known as Skweeker
coz_Skweeker,  well it is alpha still16:25
coz_Skweeker, but so far things seem to be working fairly well16:25
SkweekerI know :)16:25
Skweekercoz_, running it on 3 systems here. No problems so far.16:26
coz_Skweeker, yeah ,,, I like so far myself :)  as long as what is working now continues to work after release :)16:27
Skweekercoz_, aside from this laptop I'm on (MacBook Pro) the other two machines are pretty old. Don't think I'll have any problems with them as they're sort of tried and true16:28
coz_Skweeker, right understood... as long as it works  :)16:28
Skweekercoz_, Do you know if XKB controls keyboard LEDs?16:30
coz_Skweeker, sorry I dont16:30
Skweekercoz_, I just noticed my capslock LED doesn't come on when it is active. Though I don't know if it did previously under Ubuntu or not. Same goes for the num lock LED.16:31
coz_Skweeker, mm on the keyboard itself?16:32
coz_Skweeker, I doubt it has to do with ubuntu  more likely the leds on the keyboard.... does this keyboard need a driver????16:33
Skweekercoz_, seems like it's been a problem in previous versions of Ubuntu, also. I believe the keyboard is to use XKB as the driver..16:35
coz_Skweeker, oh!! mm you may want to google this issue since I wouldnt know the solution for that sorry16:36
mohbana1.  can someone please tell me if the live cd has an option of where to install grub? 2. where can i find the log for the last boot attempt?16:36
Skweekercoz_, looks like it's conflict with mouseemu, which provides emulation for right/middle clicking. Apparently it breaks the capslock LEDs16:37
coz_Skweeker, oh! ok16:37
Skweekermohbana, I believe the grub installation options are easier accessed using an alternative CD. The live CD more or less installs non-interactively.16:38
Skweekermohbana, though I haven't tried changing grub install options from the live cd's installer. It may have an option burried somewhere but I have never seen it.16:39
Skweekercoz_, Just uninstalled mouseemu, and sure enough... the LEDs work.16:40
=== Mez__ is now known as Mez
SkweekerI suppose "removed" would be the proper term..16:41
coz_Skweeker, whoa cool  you solved it :)16:41
Skweekercoz_, Yeah, but now I need to get another method of right clicking working :)16:41
coz_Skweeker,  what do you mean?16:43
slytherinHas anyone mnaged to get grub2 working on any powerpc machine?16:44
Skweekercoz_, Mac trackpads only have one button. In Mac OS X, right-clicking is accomplished by holding control, and clicking. Or on newer machines, holding two fingers on the pad, and clicking (by default, anyway)16:44
coz_Skweeker, oh!!!!   mm then I would have absolutely no clue as to the solution for that one :)16:45
slytherincoz_: What is problem?16:45
coz_slytherin, not sure guy sorry16:46
coz_guys I have to break here  lunch time    yummm16:46
slytherinSkweeker: Are you looking for making the right click work in Ubuntu?16:47
SkweekerYes.16:47
Skweekerslytherin, I've removed mouseemu, as it makes the keyboard LEDs for caps/num lock not work16:47
Skweekerslytherin, so now I'm looking for a new method to use on my MacBook Pro. I'd prefer holding two fingers on the trackpad and clicking, but I'm not sure how to do that just yet.16:48
slytherinSkweeker: I have two solutions for that on my ibook. One is that my 'Eject' button (F12) works as right click by default and second is I have made the 'Enter' button on right side of spacebar to work as right click16:48
Skweekerslytherin, enter would work, I suppose.16:49
Skweekerslytherin, my F12 key isn't doing right-click now that I've removed mouseemu16:49
slytherinSkweeker: I don't remember exact option right now for 'Enter' key, but you should look into System -> Preferences -> Keyboard -> Layout -> Layout Options -> Alt/Win key behaviour.16:51
Skweekerslytherin, when I do that, I get errors that XKB wasn't able to load the config.. But I'll see if that works.16:54

Skweekersoc, hmm don't know anything about those17:10
soci assume the mouse acceleration has been changed to totally horrible values17:12
socbut corg.conf looks ok ...17:12
Skweekersoc, I think there is a different config for the trackpad that overrides what xorg.conf has, but don't quote me on that.17:13

socDanaG: do you mean me?17:15
DanaGFor touchpad, yes.  I haven't had any odd acceleration, but the 'gsynaptics' thingy will let you control sensitivity.17:16
socmhh ok17:17
DanaGOh yeah, and I have to go out to school now; I'll be back some time later.17:17
soci'll try that if it doesn't get fixed i a few days ...17:17
socthanks!17:17
slytherinSkweeker: pong17:17
DanaGOh yeah, and the RightEdge thingy is for setting where the vscroll zone starts -- you can tweak it by using snyclient in console, and then once you find a value that works, put it in xorg.conf.17:17

tretl1can anyone help me out17:19
Skweekersoc, I have not.17:20
slytherinSkweeker: is the right click working?17:20
Skweekertretl1, perhaps you need to install gnome-vfs-2.0?17:20
Skweekerslytherin, negative.17:20
Skweekerslytherin, what keyboard layout are you using?17:20
slytherinSkweeker: which option did you change?17:20
slytherinSkweeker: I am using Apple Laptop17:21

Skweekertretl1, maybe you can install it using Ubutnu's repositories?17:21
Skweekerslytherin, I just selected "Apple Laptop". No dice.17:21
socomg ... these "unlocking" buttons appearing almost everywhere now in gnome are the worst thing i ever saw ...17:22

Skweekerslytherin, I didn't change any options.17:22

Skweekerslytherin, what option am I supposed to change, and what is a "third level chooser"?17:23
eddieftwoutput to a projector i sohuld say17:23
slytherinSkweeker: I think third level choose is for international keyboards, for keys with accent. but I am not sure17:23
Skweekerslytherin, alright.17:24

ffmhow unstable is hardy>?21:42
bardyrvery21:43
bardyri had a crash 2 weeks ago!21:43
ffmbardyr: lol.21:43
ffmbardyr: ubuntu has me spoiled. I'm not used to crashes.21:43
ffmbardyr: was this a full-system crash?21:45
bardyrffm, actually it was a freeze and had to do a hard reboot21:45
mohbanahi everyone, i having major problems with acpi, i had to use this for the kernel and in safe graphic mode for the live cd to boot propely 'quiet nosplash -- acpi=off', i noted that during my whole live session the mouse and keyboard (both usb based) where exteremly slow and the network card (LAN) wasn't even working.  I used the 64bit cd and i have a 8800 gts 512.  any sort of help would be great21:50
ffmbardyr: so, should I wait for alpha 5, beta, or final? I'm supposed to be working on docs, and I want to help find bugs.21:54
bardyrffm, well it runs pretty smooth for most people, there are some nautilus/gvfs problems but not that many21:55
bardyri would just jump on it or wait for alpha521:56
ffmbardyr: I'm running 32 bit on a 64 bit system. Would now be the time to go 64 bit, and how hard would it be?21:56
bardyrfeature freeze is tomorrow so alpha5 should be pretty stable21:56
bardyrffm, depends on your hardware but it should be pretty easy nowadays21:57
ffmbardyr: would I have to reinstall, or is there a simple "convert all binaries to 64" command?21:57
bardyri think you need to reinstall21:58
bardyryou should be able to change the apt source list to 64bit, but i think the best option would be a fresh install21:58
sveriffm: i installed 64bit on saturday, and it works great, as works hardy great :-)22:04
sveriffm: i had to setup a 32 bit chroot, it worked too without big problems22:04
