[00:14] anyone here used wubi to install 8.04? [00:15] as wubi downloads the x64 image instead of the x86 [00:17] should i install the x64 or the x86 if i have an intel q6600 quad core? [00:17] Upto you [00:18] but wubi downloads the x64 [00:19] can i get past it just by downloading the 32bit and placing it in the same folder? [00:22] try it [00:34] CorruptTerrorist: why does it matter? [00:35] CorruptTerrorist: wubi is not supposed to be a permanent environment, just for playing with for a couple weeks [00:35] and you have flash and java support [00:35] the only thing i can think of you lose out on is skype but there are ways to get that too [00:39] There is no working java plugin as of yesterday [00:39] ? [00:39] (Simple to just use a 32 bit firefox) [00:39] actually not as simple as it should be [00:42] but can i just download the 32 bit iso? [01:03] java [01:24] is wubi on the alpha 5 cd? [01:27] i think so, yes [02:06] hey everybody, I've got a problem! :) [02:07] Seems after using headphones, I no longer have stereo sound. [02:07] only the right speaker works both on my laptop and on my headphones. After multiple reboots, too. [02:12] wow [02:12] muting and then unmuting fixed it [02:12] nevermind! :) [02:28] is there somewhere where the older alphas are kept? i want to install something pre-alpha 5 to confirm a bug report [02:29] if anyone else has experienced this, there used to be a launcher icon on the top bar to launch firefox, after upgrading an earlier alpha the icon changed to a launcher icon, which now gives an error as per bug 194927 [02:29] Launchpad bug 194927 in ubuntu "Error: Could not launch application: Not a launchable item" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/194927 [02:31] sn0: i got that iirc [02:32] gone now though, and i didn't think anything about it [02:32] wastrel you experience the same ? [02:32] i did yes but i forget when, and what the error was [02:33] it might have been alpha 4, im not 100% sure, but i cannot find a download for alpha 4 [02:37] i just deleted an earlier iso today too :< [02:37] i just run hardy i haven't been in "testing" mode [02:38] is there any way to stop hardy automatically placing 'shortcuts' for shares i access as if i had used the connect to server dialog [02:38] it was actually tracker that reminded me, i noticed it doesn't take mouse focus when you click on the tracker icon [02:38] sn0: Do you mean bug 193902?

[02:39] i access many computers during a day but they are most often not the same ones, im hoping there is a gconf key associated with this behaviour [02:39] It was on the alpha 5 release notes ;) [02:41] what's tracker [02:41] Laney that explains firefox, something must have changed as in bug 194927 a similar problem remains on the livecd with the gparted being launched from the menu [02:41] Launchpad bug 194927 in ubuntu "Error: Could not launch application: Not a launchable item" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/194927 [02:43] anyone know anything about this, i like to keep my desktop sparse with just my drives and regular folders i dont want these network folders popping up there every time i connect to a different computer [02:44] sn0: I'd guess they are separate, but I don't know enough about the LiveCD to be sure. It just looks like a problem with the su-to-root program. [02:44] ok Laney that makes sense for me, thanks [02:45] wastrel traker is the program that index's your hard disk and files [02:45] beagle [02:46] beagle was replaced some time ago, some releases ago maybe [02:46] i don't pay attention to those things [02:46] Laney any chance you know where to download old alphas ? :) would be useful to know [02:46] sn0: I'm not sure... Perhaps you could find an old torrent somewhere. I think they're deleted from the mirrors once superseded [02:47] sn0: Yeah, there's a torrent on mininova :) [02:47] the internet updates so quick these days that its hard to find older files, pity archive.org doesn't archive isos :) [02:48] You probably want to verify the md5sum somehow though... [02:48] indeed [02:54] I get the same right-channel-only thing after suspend and resume. Twiddling 'mute' does fix it. [03:03] i wonder what the issue is here. i'm running hardy and i don't know if it's a nautilus or ntfs-3g thing, or even a possibility of both, but even on a Intel C2Q Q6600 running x86 version, i get all 4 cores maxed out at 100% and the system becomes very sluggish when copying or moving files between ntfs and ext3 drives. [03:05] BaD_CrC have you tried copying files without using ntfs-3g and just mounted with ntfs instead? [03:06] when i 'move' files it needs delete permissions and the regular ntfs driver wont be nice to me like that. [03:07] well you mention copy too, so it may show where the problem stems from [03:07] delete=write=!ntfs -> ntfs-3g [03:07] Well you can try using cp to eliminiate (or not) nautilus [03:08] I do see the same slowness using nautilus though :( [03:08] 5915 john 20 0 162m 76m 28m S 20 99.0 120:31.24 nautilus [03:08] 29825 root 20 0 3944 1236 652 S 4 99.0 23:27.11 mount.ntfs-3g [03:09] ouch, is it only in hardy BaD_CrC ? [03:09] just kinda annoying that when doing weekly backups it brings my system to its knees [03:09] Nah, Gutsy too [03:09] sn0: i haven't tried it in gutsy or on my debian/sid box [03:10] i'll play with it on the debian/sid box when i go back to work on monday [03:10] ntfs-3g has always been painful when I've used it. [03:10] It only uses a lot of one core, though -- it leaves my other one free. [03:11] compared to captive-ntfs ntfs-3g has been a dream for me personally [03:11] it'd be nice if they'd focus more on the ntfs writing abilities and just incorporate it directly into the kernel tree [03:12] it'd probably have to be a restricted-module though :( [03:14] i'm gonna reboot and try something. :P wish me luck.

[03:33] if the installer behaves like a normal windows program [03:33] it boots itself [03:33] right [03:33] the installer starts in windows, makes an image for ubuntu on your system... a single file [03:34] and adds the boot parts to the windows boot loader [03:34] yep [03:35] Here's what I need: a WUBI that can install to a partition.

[03:58] not very important, but annoying. [04:30] my ISP is evil [04:30] can transmission use the highest, most powerful level of encryption possible? [04:33] where are you? [04:33] alaska [04:33] Clearw¡re [04:34] Ah [04:34] so until i move somewhere were i can get service from copowi [04:34] what u mean by encryption? ssl? [04:34] man, they might even block encrypted traffic [04:34] uh [04:34] it's like RC4 or something [04:35] yeah, RC4 [04:36] use tor? [04:36] uh [04:36] the onion router [04:36] i don't want to mess with tor if i can help it [04:36] azureus can do RC4 [04:36] is it true that transmission cannot? [04:37] tcp/ip? [04:37] bittorent over TCP/IP [04:37] well [04:38] i don't /think/ it's UDP [04:39] google around [04:39] or clusty. [04:40] wwwclustycom - best search engine imo [04:41] ope, no bitcomet for linux [04:41] If transmission would auto-detect ISP evilness and use any level of encryption needed automatically, it'd be awesome [04:42] i think it's very nice, simple, and well integrated.. [04:42] ..so it'd be great if /I/ didn't even have to worry about it [04:45] Hardy seems a bit sluggish [04:46] hdparm? [04:46] did the hardy updates break sudo autocomplete for anyone? [04:47] I'm using zsh, so... I don't know :/ [04:47] nope. [04:48] Pici, i've never been able to get sudo tab completion to work in zsh on any distro...if you can explain how you did that i'd love to switch over :) [04:48] what's up with the multitudes of free music on magnatune?

[04:52] i use jamendo [04:52] magnatune only for sampling via amarok [04:52] ethana3: are these things stores... or are they freely released music? [04:52] magnatune is a store [04:52] jamendo is Free music [04:52] as Ubuntu is Free software [04:52] aye [04:52] why can I listen to music on magnatune? [04:52] jamendo has over seven thousand albums [04:52] without paying cash [04:53] because they Are Not Evil [04:53] -_-" Please explain [04:53] i think they can explain better than myself [04:53] www.magnatune.com [04:54] listen all you want [04:54] good enough for me [04:54] if I find something I like and I want to download it... there are other ways [05:02] silent_: they acted in good faith, be sure not to betray it [05:02] silent_: if you want Free music that does not already exist, create it [05:02] the next major version of amarok brings jamendo integration [05:02] Pici, thanks for the tip it's all working out of the box with zsh [05:03] infinitycircuit: sure thing :) [05:03] wait, does hardy use a different shell than gutsy?

[11:25] Returns a vector of complex numbers. [11:26] Tronic: Interesting [11:26] There is also a "raw" FFT available, that will take complex numbers and that does not use windowing. [11:27] (or rather, uses rectangular window) [11:32] is hardy dumping ipw3945 ? [11:33] h3sp4wn: ok.. but I was looking for some solution involving python ^^ [11:34] h3sp4wn: numpy/scipy/matplotlib is the way to go then... === Odd_Blok1 is now known as Odd_Bloke [11:37] how can i merge something from debian unstable ? [11:37] i need the iwlwifi firmwaer package ? [11:37] alien? [11:38] Why do you need that ? [11:38] me ? [11:38] because my wifi isn't working well with WPA protected networks [11:39] Mine just worked [11:39] mine doesn't [11:39] DB44, which wifi card? [11:39] What makes you think its a firmware issue [11:39] ipw3945 [11:39] i dont know [11:39] but my sound card wasn't working, and i've manually d/led latest alsa and compiled it to get it to work [11:39] so maybe this will have an effect as well [11:40] the network manager never connects, and the wicd connects only sometimes (mostly not) [11:40] So why not just build the out of tree iwlwifi [11:40] with the right firmware and see if it works first [11:40] i tried, it didn't work [11:40] something about compatible or so [11:40] you are talking about http://intellinuxwireless.org/iwlwifi/downloads/iwlwifi-1.2.0.tgz ? [11:40] Yep [11:40] make compaints [11:40] sec [11:41] convert and install rpm and other packages [11:41] Alien allows you to convert LSB, Red Hat, Stampede and Slackware Packages [11:41] into Debian packages, which can be installed with dpkg. [11:41] But its already a debian package [11:41] why not use http://packages.debian.org/sid/all/firmware-iwlwifi/download ? [11:42] right. [11:42] ahh, i need to d/l the kenrel sourcre to compile that .tar.gz [11:42] so i rather used a pre-made noe [11:42] If you cannot even build the http://intellinuxwireless.org/iwlwifi/downloads/iwlwifi-1.2.0.tgz [11:43] so is it ok to try out that deb pack? [11:43] because of using a patched kernel [11:43] i'm using the default 7.10 kernel [11:43] then the chances of just installing that firmware doing anything is very low [11:43] well this is the 8.04 channel [11:43] the kernel itself seems to have the iwl support already [11:43] which includes iwl [11:43] the 7.10 includes the iwl as well [11:43] just not the firmware [11:44] No idea about 7.10 [11:44] welp, i'll try some experiment and see [11:45] You might have to blacklist the one that uses the userspace daemon [11:45] yeah i know [11:46] Does the 4965 support n always or sometimes just b/g ? [11:46] (never hardly messed with this yet) [11:46] ahh, cool [11:46] the 7.10 seems to even have this package builtin 1 [11:47] guess i wont be needed to install anything, just modify the blacklists [11:48] !bug system menu [11:49] ubotu bug system menu [11:50] welp, gonna disconnect, i'll try to report back :) [11:56] * heret1c tips hat at doc [12:04] urm, peoblem with the wubi installer [12:04] hi; has anybody experienced failures writting large [nearly 4.3GB in size] dvd images with brasero and/or nautilus? is it any reported bug on this? [i couldn't find anything in launchpad/brasero regarding this] [12:06] the wubi installer gets to 100% of making the image, but it then says "Could Not Access The CD, please make sure other applications are not using it and try again" [12:07] failures to verify or actual burning failures ? [12:07] + gnomebaker did the job but nautilus and brasero are keeping on failing to write large dvd images [12:07] h3sp4wn, how can i tell? [12:07] h3sp4wn, at about 94-97% they [nautilus and brasero] are giving error writing the media [12:08] gnomebaker succeded to burn the same image on the same dvd-rw medium [12:09] seems quite close to 4gb [12:09] could be they are just not compiled with large file support or something simple [12:09] and i have tried to write that image 3 or 4 times with brasero/nautilus; everytime they fail [12:10] but gnomebaker succesfully write the whole image [this is the ubuntu official dvd image downloaded from the official torrent and md5 verified] [12:12] so.. h3sp4wn, is it possible that brasero is so "dumb" that it can't write ~4.3GB but is succesfully writing compilations of nearly 4 [<4, ~3.8GB] gigabytes in size? [12:13] Could just be a single switch [12:13] (to enable large file support) to whatever burning app its using [12:13] the most annoying thing is that even nautilus is failing [12:13] dr-raku, you writing them to a linux partition type of fat32? [12:13] I use k3b [12:13] and nautilus can't be purged [12:14] s/of/or [12:14] Paladine, i write an iso image of ubuntu on a dvd-rw [12:14] oh, could be that the image is *just* too big for the media [12:15] Paladine, it is the official ubuntu 7.10 image [12:15] you could have corrupt segments on the dvdrw for example [12:15] and no, it's not too large! gnomebaker handles to write it [12:15] on the same dvd-rw, Paladine [12:15] yes but if the dvdrw is a little buggered, then it won't have 4.3GB of writable space [12:16] <- used to own his own blank media brand so knows a little about optical media [12:16] where can i download the alpha5 md5's? [12:16] Paladine, axplain this: nautilus failed to write and then gnomebaker succeded - on the same dvd-rw medium!!" [12:16] the same disk, wtf! [12:16] the media might not have erased properly [12:17] Paladine, i did tried to re-write it with nautilus 3 or 4 times already [12:17] everytime nautilus [and brasero, both] are failing [12:17] yeah but everytime you write (or attempt to) you then have to erase before your next attempt [12:18] it doesn't matter which one i use; but gnomebaker succeded [12:18] dvdrw are not perfect media by any stretch they are more susceptable to errors than write once media [12:18] Paladine, i know and i erased it everytime [12:18] yes but that doesn't mean the media is completely erased [12:19] and this must be the hell of a coincidence! only gnomebaker succeded to write the dvd-rw! [12:19] sounds to me like it is the media, nautilus certainly has no problems writing 4.3GB images, I have done it many times [12:19] urm... hardy-desktop-i386.iso: FAILED [12:19] md5 not right [12:20] Paladine, have you read what i wrote above? i used THE SAME DISK over and over again! only gnomebaker wrote it correctly! [12:20] it is pointless even trying to help you, you are not listening to anything I have said, so good day to you [12:20] everytime i try to write that using nautilus or brasero it's a no go [12:21] Paladine, excuse me; what i'm not listening? :| [12:22] it just can't be the media's fault! gnomebaker correctly wrote that media before and after [12:22] bah [12:22] who jinxed a5 [12:22] just crashed on me.. i couldnt get abck onto compiz until i restarted X [12:23] Assid, thats the danger of running alpha software [12:23] Paladine: i know [12:23] heret1c: said he had no issues.. he jinxed it [12:24] i have no issues!

[12:32] she has them specially made by ppl previously occupied with sewing circus tents [12:35] can anyone replicate that error? [12:35] heret1c, i would if i could enven get linux installed [12:37] heret1c, it works here, not tried the latest updates trough [12:38] CorruptTerrorist, and why cant you install it? [12:41] bardyr, i would if i got a proper download [12:41] alpha5? [12:41] as i keep getting wrong md5's or download times out [12:41] yes [12:41] netboot ?

[15:58] No, that's for /Launchpad/, the website [15:58] no I meant for HardyHeron [15:58] You've assigned the bug to yourself, meaning YOU intend to fix it [15:58] This is nothing to do with the software, this has to do with the website.

I'm getting tired of unresponsiveness... I've posted bugs - right back to the alpha's of 7.10 - about the fact that the NV gforce 8 series cards haven't been setup in the kernel and/or in usplash - they're still marked as new - the problem still exists [16:15] sometimes I wonder if people read the bugs posted by non-devs [16:16] yeah that is hard to know Mohero_ [16:17] well the NV bug I know should be fixable - I also run Gentoo on the same system - and it works fine on there... [16:18] though that's using gensplash and not usplash.

[16:23] bazhang, do you know how to get new kernel and custom restricted modules working? [16:24] Lukasz: to accomplish what? [16:24] It should fix fglrx freezing [16:24] jgraham: define "Weird" looks OK to me [16:25] Someone update it the kernels and it worked for the on Ubuntu forums [16:25] ah ok--not really into 3D effects as this is still an *alpha* not sure how to go about that right now Lukasz [16:25] hmm [16:25] I will try ask in forums === Meow is now known as CorruptTerrorist [16:26] i have the error bazhang [16:26] I got the 3d effects working for about 5 seconds and then it went black, had to blindly get to a terminal and disable it and then re enter x server [16:26] still very early days Lukasz [16:27] hmm [16:27] this will be a LTS so most of that they will have fixed--especially the 3D stuff Lukasz [16:28] good :) [16:28] but probably not the NV boot stuff... [16:28] * Mohero_ rolls eyes [16:30] maybe they will even get network-manager to work! ;] [16:30] i'm hoping for that - I use fixed IP at the office...

[16:39] no, I want to enable proposed-updates repo and such stuff [16:40] just add them in synaptic [16:40] I suppose the updater icon has such a menu point in context, but my system is up-to-date right now so there's no updater icon [16:41] oliver_g4 system -> Administration -> software sources [16:41] same place it was... [16:41] Mohero_: no, it's not there [16:41] Mohero_: I expected it to be there and didn't find it [16:42] hmm it *is* there on mine...... [16:42] maybe a regression in Hardy Alpha 5?

[17:02] is there a log file from the installation?

[17:04] especially in alpha builds :) [17:04] it seems the same [17:04] keep updating for the next two months and well be final ;] [17:05] Mohero_: it seems that the GUIs in Ubuntu do much more than just editing a single file... [17:06] or to put it other way: if you don't use the Ubuntu tools, you risk making your system deviate too much from the "intended" state which breaks updates :-( [17:08] oliver_g4: Alpha builds have a tendancy to break themselves anyway :) [17:08] gah. this X bug is driving me mad [17:08] nemo: which X bug?> [17:12] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/124406 [17:12] Launchpad bug 124406 in ubuntu "Keyboard keys get stuck and repeat (Feisty, Gutsy)" [Undecided,Confirmed] [17:12] it might be this [17:12] ahh that one...

If you can accept the 6-hr delay for se's mirror, use that one. [17:44] se [17:44] or pick a different one [17:44] will try] [17:44] there's a giant list of them [17:44] HI, i upgraded to 8.04 and now wireless is gone. [17:44] it's also happening on mac os [17:44] maybe it's my network [17:45] any other server is fine though [17:45] which card jadacyrus [17:45] you didn'r really want wireless anyways. [17:45] admit it [17:45] hehe [17:45] yeah, SE is 100 times faster [17:45] bazhang: i think its an intel wireless [17:45] 3945? [17:46] how do i check again [17:46] yeah there is a problem right now--it shows wlan0 and wmaster0 [17:46] yea [17:46] 3945ABG [17:46] yup [17:46] same here [17:46] i just dont get a wireless extension at all [17:46] me neither [17:46] damn. [17:47] is there a way to fix it [17:47] still this is only alpha 5, so some time for a fix [17:47] doh! [17:47] best to stick with gutsy for a bit if you want flawless performance ;] [17:47] err gutsy isnt flawless [17:48] ive broken it soo many times.. made more sense to go alpha [17:48] the /topic here does mention breakage iirc ;] [17:48] so is there a thread or something that i can refer to about this or? [17:48] Assid: thus my ;] [17:48] jadacyrus: file a bug report [17:48] it will be fixed though [17:48] atleast i can blame it on alpha [17:49] hardy eats too much cpu on my laptop [17:49] atleast compared to gutsy [17:49] hehe alpha 3 had a lost and found with around 300 items in it [17:50] Virgin Media host a mirror [17:50] and it's 200 times faster :D [17:50] bazhang: does yours show up in restricted drivers? [17:50] nay jadacyrus [17:51] me neither [17:52] alex-weej: Java6 plugin doesn't work here as well [17:53] where do I go to report a bug [17:54] !bug | jadacyrus [17:54] jadacyrus: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug report at: http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu - Bugs in/wishes for the bots can be filed at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu-bots [17:54] ty [17:55] Has anyone made RealPLayer work in FF3b3 in Hardy?

[18:11] enselic> if ur hd is large enough: back up, use qtparted, create partition, install gutsy to it. [18:11] heret1c: or.. I could just install FF2 === Latty is now known as Lattyware [18:12] enselic> naturally. [18:12] bazhang: not sure i dont have either wlan0 or wmaster0 but it mentions that in the new kernel no longer using ipw3945 and switching to something called iwlwifi ?

[18:19] heret1c: haha :d [18:19] does pulseaudio work in ubuntu 8.04? [18:19] jadacyrus: I searched for anything like that in apt-cache search but came up with nada [18:19] Yaroze: there is a deamon running by default at least [18:19] Yaroze: but I haven't figured out what good it's for [18:19] bazhang: same here, check ur lsmod for anything with 3945 [18:19] Enselic: no sound using flash :) i have to download the flashmovie and watch it in mplayer for it to work [18:19] phew. been at this for twi weeks straight, including a hd crash.

[18:21] unfortunately I don't remember the command I used. dgpk-reconfigure someting maybe [18:22] -a? [18:23] also my drives are missing from nautilus even tho theyre mounted :) [18:33] * heret1c tips hat at DanaG [18:35] Hello. [18:35] anyone that knows a way to run win32 from the existing ntfs partition using qemu? [18:43] is it just me, or has sound quality improved with 8.04? [18:43] alex_mayorga, not sure if qemu can but I know that vmware can, but you have to do some setup with the windows partition first otherwise you have driver problems [18:43] Quite possible. There's a new kernel and that means bugfixed for ALSA. [18:43] *bugfixes [18:44] jimmygoon, any pointers? [18:44] alex_mayorga, nope, just google sorry [18:44] DanaG, have you had any luck browsing bluetooth devices? [18:44] Hmm, I haven't tried in a while. [18:45] I still have bug 148712 over here :( [18:45] Launchpad bug 148712 in gnome-bluetooth "Gusty, Hardy: Not seeing bluetooth services even after pairing" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/148712 [18:54] Hi, i am using gutsy, i have created new user in my gutsy, but there is no voice, the msg is there "No volume control, Gstramer plugin and/or device found", please help, on other user acc. the audio work fine [18:56] add user to audio group? [18:56] Just added strace output for usplash (hardy desktop i386 and amd64) to bug 147623 [18:57] if there's anymore that I can do to help ... [18:58] void^, i have added as "adduser sarthor audio" but still that msg, shuld i have to relogin?? [18:58] yes [18:58] OK. [19:03] void^, the volume is working now, but 1 other problem, my cmoputer my headphone is plugged in the front pannle of the audio, but the computer built speaker also have sound there. how fix this. there is no problem on xp, but on linux its prob, friends are sleeping so i want to make it silent [19:03] no idea [19:03] DanaG: ping, do you have time to try a new build? [19:04] ok [19:04] I think so. New build of ALSA? [19:04] right. How familiar are you with bzr? [19:05] I haven't used it, actually. [19:06] I've fetched stuff with hg and with svn, though. I'd assume bzr is somewhat similar. [19:06] apt-get source alsa-driver && bzr branch http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/alsa-driver/ubuntu.new && rm -fr alsa-driver-1.0.16/debian && mv ubuntu.new alsa-driver-1.0.16/debian [19:07] apt-get build-dep alsa-driver && fakeroot alsa-driver-1.0.16/debian/rules binary [19:08] you _only_ need to install the created alsa-source_1.0.16-0ubuntu3~_all.deb [19:08] then, apt-get install module-assistant debconf-utils && m-a clean,a-i alsa-source [19:08] Currently installing bzr. [19:12] Now it's running the rules file. [19:13] Nothing to do with hardy but my question is, i have this folder outside the home directory that is use for samba sharing. now id like to also beable to access it via ssh. i know how to set permissions but my question is how is the best way to do it? right now it seems to be root user and root group, 777. [19:13] how do i make pulseaudio work? [19:13] Yaroze: what is wrong with the pulsing of your audio? [19:13] Yaroze: grab an Alpha 5 desktop cd? [19:14] DanaG, I've considering give bzr a try, what are you testing? [19:14] crimsun_: hmm? [19:15] Yaroze: it works out of the box (OOTB) in Hardy Alpha 5. Have you tried Alpha 5? [19:15] Odd.... cpio was trying to copy lots of random unrelated stuff. [19:15] DanaG: yeah, that's quilt.a [19:15] I'll make a new dir to put the stuff in before running 'rules'. [19:15] quilt* [19:15] crimsun_: when was alpha 5 released? [19:15] It was copying everything in the current directory, which was my general 'downloads' directory. [19:16] Yaroze: last week (a few days ago) [19:16] * heret1c repeats - is it just him, or has sound quality improved with 8.04? [19:16] hey all - i've experienced some problems with hardy and i was wondering if others were having the same issues [19:16] heret1c: well, PulseAudio uses the speex resampler instead of ALSA's linear one. [19:16] heret1c: i get sound errors when playing games so dunno about that [19:16] anybody lose keypad functionality on their keyboard? [19:16] oh, i also lose sound when the volume drops below 33% [19:17] abarbaccia: yes.. and i disabled the keyboard mouse :) [19:17] Yaroze: which games? [19:17] crimsun_: UrbanTerror [19:17] Yaroze: what do you mean? did you resolve it [19:17] haven't tried games. just playing shoutcast streams. [19:17] abarbaccia: check your keyboard settings [19:17] Yaroze: quake2-based? [19:17] crimsun_: quake 3 based [19:17] Yaroze: I have. everything seems corret... [19:17] abarbaccia: keyboard mouse not on? [19:17] Yaroze: so you need to use pasuspender -- q3a [19:18] Yaroze: son of a gun [19:18] Yaroze: 12345!! thanks -- :0) [19:18] crimsun_: the sound can work for hours.. then suddenly the quality of the sound goes away :) [19:18] apparently ubuntu 8.04 A5 doesnt have drivers for the ne2k_pci nic. :\ [19:18] install: cannot stat `debian/alsa-source.rules': No such file or directory [19:18] abarbaccia: :) [19:18] Looks like I need to chdir first. [19:18] crimsun_: thought my new headphones was broken :P [19:19] but only the game sound gets weird [19:19] DanaG: oh, into alsa-driver-1.0.16 probably [19:19] Yup, I did that and it worked. === arnl is now known as Aranel [19:20] crimsun_: i have a audigy 2 card so no soundcard locking :P [19:20] anybody lose all sound when volume drops below 33% [19:20] Yaroze: meaning EMU10k-driven? [19:20] crimsun_: i installed 8.04 yesterday so i must be using alpha 5 then [19:20] crimsun_: yes [19:20] abarbaccia: yes. more like 40-50% here. :P i'm on 7.10 though. [19:20] abarbaccia: no, what happens? [19:21] Oh hey, do you know anything about the ADI 1981(HD)? [19:22] some. What in particular? [19:22] crimsun_: When you lower the volume below 33%, all sound cuts out. [19:22] I'm pondering a laptop for summer, and one option I'm thinking of (HP Compaq 8510p) has that chip. [19:22] abarbaccia: no, I mean programmatic repetition, meaning "how are you reproducing it? with what apps? under what environments? alsa-native or pulseaudio-native?" etc. [19:23] Is there good linux support for that chip, or does it come down to the individual laptop? [19:24] crimsun_: I have rhythmbox playing audio right now, and when i lower the volume below 33% in teh volume-applet the audio cuts out [19:24] I'm also curious about Asus's Xonar PCIe sound card; I'm considering getting a mini-PCIe-to-PCIe adapter and using that soundcard with the laptop. [19:25] crimsun_: i can see audio playing with pavumeter but i hear nothing :) [19:27] abarbaccia: / Yaroze: I need details, really. Run the alsa-info.sh debugging script on wiki/DebuggingSoundProblems. [19:27] Oh yeah, I figured out something odd about the Audigy2: it does S16LE and Float32LE, but not S24LE. That confused me when I was trying to use surround51:CARD=Audigy2 in pulseaudio. [19:27] crimsun_: this just started happening too, btw. I'm looking at that script [19:28] DanaG: Xonar support is in .16, a bit improved in the snap I've tweaked for you [19:29] crimsun_: http://pastebin.ca/916561 [19:29] I would've thought Xonar would be just a variant of CMI8788, but I guess not. === Meow is now known as CorruptTerrorist [19:29] no, it's an entirely new set. [19:30] Hmm, arecord still simply hangs. [19:31] DanaG: ok, good. [19:31] DanaG: as for the 1981, it has ups and downs. [19:32] it's fairly well supported, but of course there are a billion quirks. [19:32] with any luck, the model you'd purchase doesn't need new pin configs. === neversfelde_ is now known as neversfelde [19:33] crimsun_: did you get my pastebin? [19:33] brb. [19:34] lols. [19:34] Here's a service manual for the laptop: http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&ct=res&cd=3&url=http%3A%2F%2Fstatic.tigerdirect.ca%2Fpdf%2FHP_8510p_8510w_NotebookPC-MnSG.pdf&ei=pcbBR7o9mYiEA8vc4cEH&usg=AFQjCNHd7uDKvVeDbwFYX7CyD3uh3eEb-Q&sig2=IgodItdqhx4raIBuiAYJ7w [19:34] argh, I hate how Google now mangles URLs. [19:34] the other room is being spammed. they set out all the ops. XD [19:35] Two cool features: "fan always on when on AC power" is a BIOS option, and "swap fn and ctrl" is a BIOS option. I'd like to meet the people who thought of those two features, because they are very useful and rarely-thought-of. [19:35] DanaG: tried www.clusty.com ? [19:37] DanaG: hey buddy, fan always on doesnt seem to work for me. :\ maybe that was just vista taking over. [19:38] You have that model? [19:39] what model? thought we were talkinga bout laptop options lol. [19:40] On buying new laptops, anyone knows someone at Dell that can sell *N laptops outside the US? [19:40] E1505n laptops are sold in the UK too [19:40] Germany as well, I think [19:40] An array of countries anyway [19:41] abarbaccia: you need to try the new code I've posted. [19:41] I've asked for those models here in MX to no avail [19:42] alex_mayorga: canada/lat.am. coming soon. [19:42] and I really would like to make my money talk for Ubuntu this time [19:42] last time pesky Dell woulsn't even let me get a refund on my non used Win CD [19:43] heret1c, thanks, how soon is soon? where did you get that from? [19:43] I guess I need to add a comment on bug 1 about it [19:43] Launchpad bug 1 in ubuntu "Microsoft has a majority market share" [Critical,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1 [19:44] anybody get the "nautilus can't display network:/// locations" error? [19:44] alex_mayorga: linux part of www.softpedia.com [19:44] The "this model" I was thinking of is the one of which I linked to the service manual. [19:44] abarbaccia: everyone gets it. you didnt read the memo. [19:45] HP Compaq 8510p. [19:45] is there an official way to contact Dell on this matter? [19:45] abarbaccia: http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/hardy/alpha5 [19:45] They actually sell laptops with FreeDOS, and take off 75 bucks (base is Vista Business) for doing so. [19:45] abarbaccia: read the "caveats" part. [19:46] HP also exposes interesting rules about stickers. For example, Intel Wireless card requires "Centrino" sticker; "Centrino Pro" (Intel AMT) requires "Centrino Pro" sticker. [19:47] What is it that makes capture hang rather than simply recording silence? Also, what's the difference between "Oxygen" and "Virtuoso", that mandates separate drivers? [19:48] AtomicSpark: very good. thanks [19:53] * heret1c discovers linux has a Plug 'n Pray relationship with mobile phones. [19:53] * AtomicSpark knows linux invented Plug 'n Play [19:54] * DanaG wonders if an ISA SB16 with IDE controller would be at all useful nowadays. [19:54] Probably not. [19:54] AtomicSpark: not necessarily the same. 8) [19:55] * AtomicSpark thought thats what they called it in windows [19:55] DanaG: yes, useful. [19:55] there's always _some_ use case. [19:55] * AtomicSpark has a ibm ps1 [19:56] We used to have some of those RAM-on-a-stick thingies with the actual row of pins on the bottom. [19:57] I also have a non-plug-and-play Ensoniq Soundscape, an old ISA VGA card of some sort, and a Voodoo3 2000 PCI. [20:00] is youtube down? [20:01] apparently so [20:02] loads for me [20:02] unusual. [20:02] CorruptTerrorist: .co.uk? [20:03] .com [20:03] That reminds me of why I so hate flash: [20:03] *segfault* [20:03] *segfault* [20:03] click, back, *segfault* [20:03] It's really annoying. [20:03] sure its not flash not nspluginwrapper or badly written flash codde [20:04] Firefox crashes almost every two or three pages on YouTube... and it's actually crashing on page UNload. [20:04] I'm also on 32-bit, so nspluginwrapper isn't an issue. [20:06] Od... somehow Timidity manages to bypass PulseAudio even though it's the default ALSA device, and it also manages to bypass the "PCM" slider of my sound card. [20:06] interesting - I wonder what they changed recently [20:06] okay i have a pet peeve with hardy. The very top and bottom of the panel bars aren't mart of the menu. Meaning, if i click on the very top of the screen by the word "applications" the menu doesn't open. repeatable on others machines? [20:06] Seems ok on 32 bit firefox 2 [20:07] ff3 is cwer a cpu hog. [20:07] cert [20:09] can someone test this so i can file a bug if needed? [20:09] click the applications menu, but at the VERY top of your screen. Does the menu open? [20:10] abarbaccia: give me 5 mins. :P the bottom doesnt work in gutsy [20:10] hurm. i never had the problem in gutsy...i don't think at least [20:11] The top one pixel is eaten by the "edge flip" features in compiz. [20:11] my mouse has to be at least 5-6 pixels up from the bottom edge [20:11] That's what's going on. [20:11] Oh, you have your menu at the bottom? [20:11] DanaG: I have my menu on the top [20:12] DanaG: The top pixel is claimed by compiz you're saying -- because its KILLING me right now [20:12] shouldn't it be passing that even through if its not calling any action? [20:12] talking on video problems, anyone else seeing the display "refresh" diagonally [20:13] abarbaccia: i am reinstalling hardy because it couldnt detect my net2k driver. ill check when its done. [20:13] alright, great. [20:13] it just doesn't seem right to me [20:14] i hope its a bug and not a design choice [20:14] assuming the alt install works for me. didnt for 7.10. :\ stupid freeze at loading boot scripts. [20:14] Turn off all the edge-flip triggers and the pixel-eating will go away. [20:14] Is there a way to re-install a different kernel, but keep the data intact? [20:15] which data? [20:15] like doing a repair install in win32 or something of sorts [20:15] I wonder..... what could I use a Smart Card reader for? [20:15] what :| [20:15] I'd like to test amd kernel on my turion laptop [20:16] copying junk to sd / mmc cards ? [20:16] DanaG, to use disk encryption maybe [20:16] you mean you have x86 and you want to try amd64? [20:16] alex_mayorga: you may install as much kernels as you want and switch betwen them [20:16] P2502, can you tutor me, n00b here, sorry [20:16] Aah yes, you got the difference betwen smartcard and any memory format. [20:16] youtube is Back [20:17] SD is winning the card "format war" [20:17] DanaG: Do i disable them in the compiz configuration tool? and do you know what effect specifically [20:17] Are you using wall or cube? [20:18] alexrudd0, right [20:18] sorry i pasted off topinc [20:18] Anyway, it'd be "edge flip {pointer,drag,move}" [20:18] actually I seem to have generic as of now [20:18] topic* [20:18] alex_mayorga: that's not just a kernel - you have to recompile/reinstall *everything* [20:18] alexrudd0, what do I do? [20:19] alex_mayorga: just backup your data and do anything [20:19] DanaG: Actually do you mean a smartcard reader like I have on my sparc ? [20:19] P2502, anything being? [20:19] Those ones you use instead of having to logon you just put the card in [20:19] alex_mayorga: is there a reason you want 64 bit? i accepted the fact that I don't need it yet. most of the apps that run on it are just 32 bit recompiled, not optimized at all. [20:19] I'd like to have smart card if only for authentication purposes [20:20] secureid is quite nice to use but you need an aceserver somewherre [20:20] is 8.04 coming out with alsa 0.16 and eclipse 3.3.1.1 ? [20:20] AtomicSpark, just trying to be a "good citizen" and test thoroughly :) [20:20] That HP laptop I linked to has a true SmartCard reader. [20:21] DanaG, does HP do ubuntu right out of the box? or freeDOS at least? [20:22] is 8.04 coming out with alsa 0.16 and eclipse 3.3.1.1 ? === nikolam-away is now known as nikolam [20:22] HP does SLES only at least for my new laptop [20:22] alex_mayorga: HP doesnt have ubuntu afaik. you can get freedos on the "configurable" ones, no smartbuys. [20:22] I just hope they replace the HD2600 with a 3xxx-series card by summer. [20:23] is there a formal team to push ubuntu to OEMs? [20:23] DanaG: Does the slot have SC next to it (I think I have one if it does) no idea where to buy the cards from though (got a finger print scanner as well I will probably never use) [20:23] DanaG: Thanks, I switched to cube and there are no problems with edge flips or anything. Should i file a bug for the wall?

[20:25] It seems pretty good so far decent screen and a quadro (hopefully less mesing around with drivers) [20:25] that samon wallpaper is what shipped with mine. [20:26] inspiron 1501 here [20:26] Oh, and HP subtracts 5 bucks if you choose Broadcom wifi. [20:26] Mine is 17" as well I don't have a full keyboard though (the home end part is squashed up) [20:26] h3sp4wn: i have a numpad. yes. go me. [20:26] * AtomicSpark finds pics [20:26] how bearable is a 17" to take to bed and stuff? [20:26] got a numeric keypad and normal jeyboard [20:26] I currently have a Gateway M685; I'm sick of carrying around the 7.5 pounds PLUS the power brick. [20:27] but home end pg up pg dn is moved [20:27] http://images.google.com/images?source=ig&hl=en&rlz=&q=6820s&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wi [20:27] I don;t int [20:27] (M685 is also known as nx860{,x,xl}) [20:27] I still believe 12" is the right size [20:27] mine is 6.5 lbs. not bad for a 17". [20:27] end to carry this around I have a thinkpad X31 that is indistructable [20:28] does Lenovo sell no OS models? [20:28] Well not totally but its survived 6 months of punishment so far and its fine [20:28] I think you can get suse now - I dunno this is on of the last IBMs [20:29] * AtomicSpark doesnt like opensuse [20:29] Oh yeah, I'd assume the 8710w has the same audio chip as the 8510p.... [20:29] back in college I had friends that step on their alloy thinkpads to test ruggedness [20:30] DanaG: Seems to work there is no hardware mixer which is a bit crappy though [20:30] they survived [20:30] and it seems to like un muting itself under some circumstances (that could be gnome though) [20:30] but these were pre-lenovo models, I wonder if they still put magnesium alloy around the LCD [20:31] you have to be kidding me! it doesnt see that driver either. X(. stupid ubuntu in kvm. [20:33] http://rafb.net/p/uvkxh225.html (That is the lspci) dunno whether its the same or not [20:35] Oh hey, have you used Windows on the laptop? Does Speedfan work? [20:35] (The HP 8710w) [20:35] Never booted Windows even once [20:36] I have the recovery partition still though - maybe I will want / need to one day [20:36] recovery partitions make me sad. i demand cd's. [20:37] I don't care I don't want windows anyway === marko-_-_ is now known as marko-_- [20:39] why not? good for things. [20:40] There seems to be a bug in the new librsvg that just appeared on Hardy (2.22.0-1). The older version (2.20.0-1) worked fine, but this one segfaults in _rsvg_acquire_xlink_resource. [20:40] only win app I miss is Joost [20:41] I've recall I read about a easier integration of wine [20:41] wow. hp updated their website. not bad. [20:42] but don't recall the name of it, any wine experts [20:42] maybe if they finally have a single username and password for the entire site, i wont hate them as much. [20:44] hey everyone [20:44] I've got an issue with the Wubi installer [20:44] About halfway through, it claims that it is unable to access the CD. Anyone know how I could fix this? [20:45] Kuni, did you ckecked the media for errors? [20:45] not yet [20:46] but I've been able to boot from the disc and use the livecd session on another machine [20:49] during the install you might exercise part of the CD that are not used on a live session, might be worth a check [20:50] yeah, my friend (whose system this is) says it fails at the same point every time, so I'm guessing that's it, I'll check [20:56] appears like many have problems with the monitor/disply module in system settings. [20:57] going back quite some time, too. [20:58] heret1c, bug? [20:59] alex_mayorga: spot on. [21:00] over-reported, [21:01] "libpython2.5.so not found in paths" [21:02] !"libpython2.5.so not found in paths" [21:02] ! libpython2.5.so not found in paths [21:03] smeg.

[21:05] twice over. [21:05] hehe [21:06] heret1c, do you want me to test anything? [21:06] Kuni: thanks. that's it. [21:06] np [21:06] there's a seperate one for kubuntu, too, I forget which one it is [21:06] mine is gnome tough [21:07] lol [21:07] ls [21:07] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kde-systemsettings/+bug/189999 [21:07] wrong window, sorry. :) [21:07] Launchpad bug 189999 in kde-systemsettings "[hardy] kubuntu libpython2.5.so (dup-of: 138189)" [Undecided,New] [21:07] Launchpad bug 138189 in pykdeextensions "application tries to dlopen /usr/lib/libpython2.5.so (only found in the -dev package) " [High,In progress] [21:10] broken symlink?

DC? 8) [21:14] Oh hey, with that HP 8710p, what are the quicklaunch buttons? [21:14] I mean, what logos are there? [21:14] locate libpython2.5.so [21:15] heret1c, why? [21:15] oh hahahahah [21:16] CorruptTerrorist: 8) [21:16] the minkee-in-chimp 'isself! === Nookie^Away is now known as Nookie^ [21:17] hmph, we broke g-p-m. [21:18] * crimsun_ looks at bugs.lp/u/+s/g-p-m [21:19] heret1c, I found it [21:19] libpython2.5.so.1 -> libpython2.5.so.1.0 [21:20] so mon/disp expects a pointer to those from somewhere. [21:20] these are under /usr/lib [21:20] * heret1c nods [21:24] well, that's a step in the right direction [21:25] at least g-p-m from ted's ppa can tell if I'm on AC vice battery (using linux 2.6.24-10.16-generic) [21:25] now to figure out which set of patches need to be reverted/rediffed [21:26] I have an ubuntu base system installed (edgy) is it save to upgrade to heron directly? should I use dist-upgrade or upgrade? I want to install ubuntu-desktop, should I do that before or after upgrading? [21:26] lucasvo: edgy->feisty->gutsy->hardy [21:26] I have reasons not to install HH directly from an alpha image :) [21:27] any other migration path is unsupported currently [21:27] when hardy is released, both gutsy->hardy and dapper->hardy will be supported [21:27] crimsun_: even with only the base system? [21:28] yes. [21:28] crimsun_: and I imagine installing ubuntu-desktop afterwards is a wiser(faster) choice? [21:28] now - that said, it is possible to do feisty->hardy [21:28] I haven't tried edgy->hardy [21:28] crimsun_: ok [21:28] yes, that's the recommended path [21:28] ok [21:29] err, not the _supported_ path, to be clear. [21:29] cool, thanks. [21:29] but you can if it tweaks your jimmies. [21:29] crimsun_: I've been using development versions all the time. since edgy [21:29] lucasvo: I'm only saying that for posterity. [21:29] I'm used to the fixing and that stuff [21:29] crimsun_: sure [21:30] crimsun_: I'm glad that I finally found the time to remove the crappy vista from my tablet pc [21:30] crimsun_: haha posterity [21:30] crimsun_: any news/rumors as to when ide hds will be hdparmable again? [21:30] heret1c: no idea and beyond my area. Sorry. [21:31] crimsun_: ah. [21:31] crimsun_: is me testing LTS upgrade any help? (only with ubuntu-base installed) [21:32] lucasvo: absolutely! [21:32] lucasvo: update-manager-core should still work (and you'd be testing it) [21:33] crimsun_: How does the dapper upgrade work anyway? I noticed there weren't proper transitional packages in hardy. [21:33] heret1c, anything else you need me to check? [21:34] Flannel: err, _which_ packages are missing transitional ones? [21:35] crimsun_: Kernel ones [21:35] uhm actually I don't run LTS anyway. I'm on edgy already. [21:35] there's no -686, for instance, or any of the others [21:36] bbl [21:36] -base, -standard, and -desktop are all there (obviously) and I haven't checked any others, but the kernel ones aren't [21:36] I suppose those are metapackages anyway, but the kernel will need a transitional [21:37] well, u-m should handle those [21:37] no, kernels are dependant on -minimal [21:37] er, other way around [21:38] and, arent, even. sheesh. u-m doesn't depend on linux-generic [21:38] it shouldn't [21:39] u-m should handle them. [21:39] what is u-m then? [21:39] update-manager [21:39] Ah [21:39] so, what exactly does it do? [21:39] that said, if you feel like filing a wishlist bug against linux to add those transitional packages for -[56]86, feel free [21:39] since, its not the same as it has been (check third parties, check metapackages, change sources, dist-upgrade) [21:40] I'm just trying to understand what update-manager(-core) does, since I'm going to have to support botched upgrades in #ubuntu once april comes around [21:41] crimsun_: File against which package? [21:41] linux. [21:42] see update-manager's README.dist-upgrade. You'll find the code in AutoUpgradeTester/ and DistUpgrade/ fairly informative. [21:44] ok, food time. [21:44] thanks crimsun_ [22:35] does anyone have wine working? [22:35] I get Segmentation fault (core dumped) when running winecfg [22:36] alex_mayorga, i downloaded the lastest release (deb) from there site, and it worked [22:36] will try that, [22:36] thanks [22:39] it's bug 191575 [22:46] IS anyone here having issues with flashplayer not playing videos on YouTube properly? Mine stops after af few seconds, despite buffering completely. [22:47] hmm, I think it was a sound server issue - I closed Banshee and now it works. [22:47] Odd. [22:48] how are you supposed to create new virtual machines in virt-manager? the buttons are greyed out. [22:49] am I missing a package? :) [22:49] running virt-manager --show-domain-creator doesn't launch the app at all [22:51] I *did* install KVM.. I wonder what else I need. [22:52] ah. I need to manually connect first. nevermind, then.. [23:19] bardyr, so wine 0.9.56 needs packaging then? === Meow is now known as CorruptTerrorist [23:25] can't change my desktop wallpaper in hardy.. [23:37] It should be called Hardly! not hardy. [23:37] (for now). [23:39] jadacyrus, I just changed my wallpaper [23:39] hi [23:40] I just installed hardy heron. [23:40] one "bug" I noticed: when I enter my username on GDM the font is way to big and doesn't fit into the box. [23:40] the same is the case in guifications of pidgin. they use the same font style [23:41] is that a bug at all, is it because I have a broken system or is it even intended? :) [23:41] Sounds like a bug. Did you install a fresh version? [23:41] you mean you see big dots instead of small ones? [23:41] alex_mayorga: no [23:41] the font size is to big [23:42] 20px instead of 12 or whatever [23:42] which results on big dots on the password fields [23:42] I've seen that certainly [23:42] aha you mean these dots [23:42] yes [23:42] alex_mayorga: I meant you were asking for big pixels or something [23:43] by the way FF3 seems to get that right, normal dots [23:43] alex_mayorga: it's not only the dots, also the username [23:43] and the notifications [23:43] lucasvo, if you file it please subscribe me please ;) [23:44] can I make a print screen in gdm? [23:46] alex_mayorga: how can I take a screenshot? [23:47] I'm having an issue with the new gnome-clock applet [23:47] alex_mayorga: did you search for it on LP? [23:47] whenever I click it, my panel freezes [23:47] why is my background white? and icons are hidden but there? [23:47] help [23:47] lucasvo, dunno, not really I don't even know how to describe it [23:48] is there a spot in gconf it would be? [23:50] found it nm [23:53] but no dice [23:55] is there a way to reset it back to the stock default? [23:57] Hi, there is a lot of traffice on port udp 137, what problem my users will if i blocked 137 udp/tcp port?? shuld i have to block this?? [23:58] Hi all [23:59] bazhang: don't know if you're still here - but I managed to fix the problem I was having.
