| Mohero | I have a bugfix for MailScanner - Hardy Alpha 5 installs MailScanner version 4.58.9-2 the latest is 4.66.5-3 - which is out of date - however, that's not a huge issue - as it sort-of works, it gives errors about a Var $FIELD_NAME in /usr/share/MailScanner/MailScanner/Message.pm and I fear a few people may get caught by ty this if they upgrade mail servers from 6.06LTS to 8.04LTS... | 00:02 |
|---|---|---|
| Mohero | the fix for version 4.58.9-2 is to add an extra line - I'll put it on Launchpad. | 00:03 |

| DanaG | Don't you just love those random hard-lockups? | 00:20 |
| teethdood | firefox 3.0B3 is the worst beta software I've ever seen | 00:20 |
| teethdood | it crashes a lot, locks up the comp, random GDM restart, slow scrolling. | 00:21 |
| asdrubal | locks up the computer?! wtf | 00:21 |
| teethdood | And somehow the repos took out firefox 2! | 00:21 |
| asdrubal | how can it do that | 00:21 |
| asdrubal | I'm using B3, but not a .deb.. the tgz in my home directory | 00:21 |
| asdrubal | teethdood, you using any funky plugins? | 00:22 |
| DanaG | I just love Flash..... | 00:22 |
| DanaG | *segfault* | 00:22 |
| Mohero | teethdood: FF3 is a strange one - and it acts very differntly on different systems... | 00:22 |
| teethdood | asdrubal: sometimes it would gray itself then nothing. Other times it would not even gray itself. I could move the mouse but nothing else | 00:22 |
| DanaG | Every three or so pages on youtube... *segfault* | 00:22 |
| DanaG | Sometimes Firefox will go gray while it's frozen for a while, and then unfreeze and stay grey. | 00:23 |
| DanaG | It's really annoying when that happens. | 00:23 |
| teethdood | DanaG: yes. How come they took off FF2 from the repos? | 00:23 |
| DanaG | It really does annoy me that they don't keep around old versions of things. I mean, WTF are you supposed to do if, say, the new version of HAL breaks battery reporting (and it does!) ? | 00:24 |
| teethdood | FF3 is supposed to fix the "memory leaks" and makes things a lot faster. Not so. It even removed the HOME button without a trace | 00:25 |
| nhaines | There's a home button on my links bar. | 00:25 |
| teethdood | I mean...Home is the quickest way to browse away from that porn you've been looking at | 00:26 |
| teethdood | hehe erm j/k | 00:27 |
| cowbud | teethdood, there was recently an ubuntuforums post on that. It turns out the removal of home was a distro choice if I recall.. | 00:29 |
| Flannel | DanaG: not-upgrade to alpha versions | 00:30 |
| DanaG | Better solution: read changelogs before you install things! | 00:33 |
| DanaG | I do that. That's exactly why I haven't updated HAL in a while, and I won't update until the battery bug is fixed. | 00:33 |

| mEck0 | RAOF, HP Compaq 6510b, intel gma gfx | 02:28 |

| hdevalence | I have some questions about 'wubi'. According to an ars technica article I read, it lets you install without repartitioning. The two questions I have are: can you access the files on your install from Windows, and can you access other files on your Windows from the ubuntu? | 04:03 |
| alex_mayorga | reading from ubuntu the windows files is native, not sure the other way around | 04:04 |

| Linuturk | Burnninator: just random speculation | 04:07 |
| Burnninator | hmm | 04:07 |
| hdevalence | their main issues are that they don't have good read access for ext2/3 on windows and they're skeptical of ntfs support in Linux | 04:07 |

| Linuturk | Burnninator: I've had a shutdown reboot issue since gutsy :) | 04:09 |

| Linuturk | http://www.fs-driver.org/ hdevalence | 04:10 |
| Burnninator | it was a last resort | 04:10 |

| Linuturk | o yeah, bulletproof in hardy RAOF ? | 04:12 |
| RAOF | But if you've got a synaptics touchpad our new super-autodetect X doesn't add the SHMConfig option, so gsynaptics (and userspace touchpad config tools in general) won't work. | 04:12 |
| RAOF | Linuturk: Not bulletproof (that was in Gutsy, actually), but proper auto-detect. | 04:13 |
| Linuturk | ah, so what would i add for my synampitcs toupad RAOF ? | 04:13 |
| RAOF | Linuturk: Unless you're using a binary blob (or dvorak keyboard layout :)) you should be able to go without xorg.conf. | 04:13 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | RAOF, xorg didn't detect my touchpad at all | 04:14 |
| hdevalence | Linuturk: thanks for the advice! | 04:14 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | have to manually add it | 04:14 |
| RAOF | Linuturk: Well, the xorg.conf that dpkg-reconfigure generates should have a section for your touchpad (we don't write empty xorg.conf yet). Just add the Option "SHMConfig" "true" to that section. | 04:14 |
| RAOF | [Hardy]TuTUXG: File a bug? :) | 04:15 |

| [Hardy]TuTUXG | Linuturk, and RAOF is right, if u want to use something like gsynaptics u need add the option SHMConfig | 04:29 |
| alex_mayorga | by the way, gsynaptic doesn't work, right? | 04:29 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | not if u add that option in xorg.conf | 04:30 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | not if u *dont* add that option in xorg.conf | 04:30 |
| alex_mayorga | what's the supported GUI for that now? | 04:30 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | for synaptic? | 04:31 |
| alex_mayorga | yes, to configure my touchpad? | 04:31 |
| Linuturk | well, it's using the "mouse" driver | 04:31 |
| Linuturk | mine* is | 04:31 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | if u dont have the SHMConfig option, none of the gui would work | 04:31 |
| alex_mayorga | is that on purpose? | 04:32 |
| alex_mayorga | shouldn't it "just work"? | 04:32 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | idont know, most likely a bug | 04:32 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | well, with the mouse module, it works | 04:32 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | just not fully work | 04:32 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | Linuturk, http://pastebin.com/m7e2c9f97 | 04:34 |
| Linuturk | heh | 04:36 |
| Linuturk | o well, I'll just wait for a few more releases | 04:36 |
| Linuturk | heh | 04:37 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | Linuturk, come on, it's not that complicated | 04:39 |
| Linuturk | I know, but I'm lazy | 04:39 |
| Linuturk | I might go back to arch so I don't have this dang reboot problem | 04:39 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | make sure u change the severlayout section, module section and add inputdevice for touchpad | 04:40 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | what reboot problem u have? | 04:41 |
| Linuturk | well, it seems to happen at random when I 1) reboot 2) shutdown 3) or kill X | 04:41 |
| Linuturk | my machine locks up hard, and my fan kicks on high gear | 04:41 |
| Linuturk | and it stays that way until I force shutdown by holding down the button | 04:42 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | that's wired | 04:42 |
| Linuturk | does it with ACPI on and off | 04:42 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | dmesg? | 04:42 |
| Linuturk | I can give you one right now, but I can't get one after it locks up, b/c it's . . . locked up | 04:43 |
| joshmoz_ | I have an IBM T43 with a synaptics touchpad, I'm wondering why the option to disable tap-clicking is no longer in the mouse control panel as of hardy-alpha-5. Is there a new way to configure that behavior? | 04:43 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | if that only happens sometime, it must relate to something u were running | 04:43 |
| Linuturk | gnome term . . . | 04:44 |
| Linuturk | lol | 04:44 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | lol | 04:44 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | joshmoz_, u dont like tap-clicking? | 04:44 |
| joshmoz_ | no, I want to turn it off | 04:44 |
| joshmoz_ | I accidentally click on stuff all the time | 04:45 |
| Linuturk | http://pastebin.com/m5d24a2cd << [Hardy]TuTUXG see anything? | 04:45 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | Linuturk, no.. | 04:46 |
| Linuturk | lol | 04:46 |
| Linuturk | see? | 04:46 |
| Linuturk | curious problem | 04:46 |
| Linuturk | hasn | 04:46 |
| Linuturk | hasn't happened in arch yet | 04:46 |
| Linuturk | but, happens in cli and X | 04:47 |
| Linuturk | I have traced it to the actual reboot command in debian cli | 04:47 |
| Linuturk | shutdown -r didn't do it | 04:47 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | joshmoz_, add: Option "TapButton1" "0" ; Option "TapButton2" "0"; Option "TapButton0" "0", under ur touchpad section of xorg.conf | 04:47 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | joshmoz_, make sure to make a backup of xorg.conf first | 04:48 |
| joshmoz_ | [Hardy]TuTUXG: doesn't it seem like something of a regression that before I had a nice easy checkbox to hit and now I'm back to editing xorg.conf? | 04:48 |
| joshmoz_ | I was so happy that ubuntu got me away from all of that :) | 04:48 |
| bazhang | well this is alpha | 04:49 |
| Linuturk | joshmoz_: we are still alpha | 04:49 |
| Linuturk | lol | 04:49 |
| joshmoz_ | should I perhaps file a bug that the option is not there? | 04:49 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | joshmoz_, um.. since it's still alpha, im afraid it's the most efficient way... for me at least | 04:49 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | joshmoz_, i don't think it's a bug | 04:50 |
| joshmoz_ | why do you think it is not a bug? | 04:50 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | Linuturk, maybe becuz the new kernel? | 04:50 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | joshmoz_, by default, u dont have that much options within xorg.conf | 04:51 |
| nhaines | joshmoz_: Go ahead and file a bug. | 04:51 |
| joshmoz_ | [Hardy]TuTUXG: the UI is there and it works fine by default in stable ubuntu | 04:51 |
| nhaines | joshmoz_: Just promise me you'll search for a pre-existing bug first. ;) | 04:52 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | joshmoz_, ok, ok, file a bug, im not really that expert ;P | 04:52 |
| joshmoz_ | nhaines: been doing that for 15 minutes, nothing | 04:52 |

| Linuturk | [Hardy]TuTUXG: well, arch is cutting edge, but alpha hardy should be cutting edge too, right? | 04:53 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | joshmoz_, it has something to do with the SHMConfig option | 04:53 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | Linuturk, ya... i dont know... | 04:53 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | i am not expert~~ | 04:53 |
| joshmoz_ | [Hardy]TuTUXG: right, I tried to install a trackpad control panel, it worked but I can't open the panel because it complains about SHMConfig | 04:53 |
| [Hardy]TuTUXG | joshmoz_, so when u file a bug, search for SHMConfig not turned on by default, if it already exit, then u dont need to file another one | 04:55 |

| grumpymole | heret1c: when you add the bookmarks toolbar, is there a home item in the toolbar? if yes, then drag that to your button toolbar | 08:01 |

| heret1c | that bl''dy libata/ide/hdparm issue is affecting all distros - seems to be down to hw. | 11:25 |
| P2502 | didnt you demonstrated correct speed for you new hdd? | 11:26 |
| heret1c | too slow. | 11:26 |
| P2502 | or speed is now ok, but dma still disabled? | 11:26 |
| heret1c | /dev/sda: | 11:27 |
| heret1c | Timing cached reads: 442 MB in 2.00 seconds = 220.78 MB/sec | 11:27 |
| heret1c | Timing buffered disk reads: 62 MB in 3.06 seconds = 20.24 MB/sec | 11:27 |
| P2502 | what is your cpu load when you copying file? | 11:28 |
| heret1c | cached should be 2x fatrer, in my book | 11:28 |
| heret1c | faster | 11:28 |
| heret1c | copying. hold on. | 11:28 |
| heret1c | hd > hd? | 11:28 |
| P2502 | in same hdd | 11:29 |
| heret1c | haven't got any large files on the hd yet (it's 4 days old) - must copy from dvd | 11:30 |
| heret1c | ah - "they live" should do it. 8) | 11:31 |
| heret1c | > 13MB/s copying file from dvd (usb2) | 11:32 |
| P2502 | actually it seems something is broken in my system too, system monitor itself load cpu by 10%, and copying file made it to 40%. with dma enabled cpu load should be less than 5%, well... its just a linux lol :/ | 11:34 |
| P2502 | now system monitor itself uses 35%... | 11:35 |
| TheInfinity | hmm. how do i get information about which process access a specific file atm? | 11:35 |
| P2502 | fuser | 11:36 |
| heret1c | get kcpuload | 11:37 |
| heret1c | it's idling around 10 here - going down to 4, up to 30ish. | 11:38 |
| savvas | dencrypt: < dencrypt> no just to see if I have alpha 4 or 5... :) <- if you update frequently, you have alpha 5 | 11:39 |
| savvas | and alpha ++ lol | 11:39 |
| P2502 | mmm what is cpu load when transferring from dvd? | 11:39 |
| P2502 | but disabled dma on dvd-rom may make cpu load high also | 11:39 |
| heret1c | P2502: yup, cpu is up to 100% while copying. 16-17 MB/s. | 11:40 |
| P2502 | well dma definitely not working | 11:40 |
| savvas | bah, i hate the new name: ibex.. it should've been itchy iguana :P | 11:41 |
| P2502 | heret1c: what is your cpu? | 11:42 |
| heret1c | w8 | 11:43 |
| savvas | has anyone else noticed that the tracker search icon keeps pausing and starting? | 11:43 |
| P2502 | it keep running when disabled | 11:44 |
| P2502 | thats i noticed | 11:44 |
| heret1c | pentium m 1400MHz | 11:44 |
| heret1c | m/obile) | 11:44 |
| P2502 | heret1c: nice cpu | 11:44 |
| savvas | mine is active, but pauses every second and every other second starts again | 11:44 |
| heret1c | P2502: it's in a dell latitude which bios is 5 yrs old. :) | 11:45 |
| P2502 | maybe its just animation? | 11:45 |
| dencrypt | savvas: I do. I just wanna confirm that it's been updated. | 11:46 |
| savvas | dencrypt: then the kernel was a good way to sort it out i think: $ apt-cache policy linux-image-2.6.24-8-generic | 11:48 |
| savvas | linux-image-2.6.24-8-generic: Installed: 2.6.24-8.14 | 11:48 |
| dencrypt | ah | 11:49 |
| dencrypt | then all is well | 11:49 |
| heret1c | running oolite in windowed mode, docked status. cpu is between 50 and 70. | 11:49 |
| dencrypt | though I run -7 since -8 just made the screen black after X starts | 11:49 |
| * heret1c bops P2502 | 11:51 | |
| P2502 | what? | 11:52 |
| heret1c | no dma. | 11:52 |
| P2502 | yeah | 11:53 |
| heret1c | scandal. | 11:53 |
| P2502 | actually you mentioned thread on launchpad about this bug and someone managed to fix it by making custom kernel with disabled libata or so | 11:54 |
| heret1c | it surfaced between edgy and feisty, methinks. | 11:54 |
| P2502 | is older ubuntu versions work? | 11:55 |
| P2502 | *does | 11:55 |
| heret1c | dapper does. | 11:55 |
| heret1c | not sure about edgy | 11:55 |
| P2502 | just build custom kernel | 11:55 |
| P2502 | maybe it will be fixed | 11:55 |
| dencrypt | haha... I dropped my re-registration-form for my website down in my soup. | 11:58 |

| P2502 | no, launchpad | 12:03 |
| heret1c | talking about the same thing. | 12:03 |
| ccooke | heret1c: Ah, you're here again | 12:04 |
| ccooke | heret1c: I did some research on that bug of yours | 12:04 |

| heret1c | 'lo ccooke - looking. | 12:04 |
| heret1c | ccooke: interesting. | 12:06 |
| ccooke | heret1c: I'm posting to the LP bug with that and a request for people to try the workarounds | 12:07 |
| heret1c | ccooke: go4it. :) | 12:07 |
| * heret1c foods | 12:08 | |
| P2502 | he said he have 20mb/s now, not 3 | 12:09 |
| P2502 | heret1c: so does it work? | 12:13 |
| ccooke | 110636 is the bug, by the way | 12:16 |
| ccooke | hmm. Odd. I tried assigning it to linux-source-2.6.24 (It's already assigned to .20 and .22), but it appears to have linked to "linux" instead. | 12:17 |
| ccooke | I wonder if I got something wrong in the interface? | 12:17 |
| qzio | isnt there a apt-ish command to force more custom configuration of a package? | 12:28 |

| savvas | anyone using x86_64/amd64? does your flash bind properly (by itself upon installation of flashplugin-nonfree) to firefox 3? | 12:31 |
| heret1c | P2502: ought that fix to go into the official kernel? | 12:32 |
| dencrypt | savvas: yes. | 12:33 |
| dencrypt | no wait. As I recall I had to downgrade one version to actually make it work. First I got just a gray colour over the flash-area. | 12:34 |
| savvas | well... here it says flash installed.. but it doesn't work in firefox :) | 12:35 |
| savvas | http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/welcome/ | 12:36 |
| dencrypt | hmm | 12:37 |
| heret1c | P2502: "combined_mode=ide" goes into menu.list on the kernel line? | 12:38 |
| dencrypt | that page doesn't work for me either. But youtube works. | 12:38 |
| savvas | nspluginwrapper: /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libflashplayer.so is not a valid NPAPI plugin | 12:39 |
| savvas | heh | 12:40 |
| dencrypt | savvas: to get full compability you probably have to install 32bit-version of ff | 12:40 |
| savvas | or firefox 2? :p | 12:41 |
| dencrypt | Yeah, but then you still won't have java :) | 12:41 |

| Mohero|Work | savvas: yep. | 12:56 |
| savvas | great :) | 12:56 |
| Mohero|Work | been on Linux for a little over 10 years now, and I think it's absolutly wonderful, but... when it breaks.... generally it REALLY breaks... | 12:57 |
| Dr_willis | Gee - ive always found that more true for windows then linux. | 12:58 |
| savvas | you're using unstable releases, with which everyone will bleed once or twice :) | 12:58 |
| Mohero|Work | I think it's true for anything | 12:58 |
| Dr_willis | I have some C64's that are still going strong. :) | 12:59 |
| Mohero|Work | I think the worst one was the run up to 7.04 (?) when a kernel update stopped anyone with a SATA drive from booting - that was about 2 weeks before release. that was slightly ammusing... | 12:59 |
| savvas | there was one with a broken kernel also for 7.04 if i'm correct | 13:01 |
| Mohero|Work | well, I always have a backup of the kernel that works anyway - and after release I rarely run the default kernel, I normally build my own, making it machine specific, I've managed to cut the boot time of my system in half doing that | 13:03 |
| bazhang | nice | 13:05 |
| heret1c | nh | 13:05 |
| Mohero|Work | I still like the Gentoo colored console, and would LOVE for that to be on the Ubuntu kernels. | 13:06 |
| Dr_willis | i always disable the framebuffer and other eyecandy. :) | 13:07 |
| Mohero|Work | well, the Gentoo console colours makes some tasks much easier on the eye... | 13:07 |
| Mohero|Work | and I enable frame buffer - to get 1280x1024 out of my screen in console :) | 13:07 |
| heret1c | oi doc | 13:08 |
| Dr_willis | i recall ageas ago when gentoo was new. a 'trick' to make installing faster.. disable the framebuffer. :) on the machines at the time. that gave a big speed boots. heh. | 13:08 |
| heret1c | Dr_willis: http://linux-ata.org/faq.html#combined | 13:08 |
| Mohero|Work | yeah, it does... with machines the speed they are now though.... not a big difference :) | 13:08 |
| savvas | this is the 90's homesick commitee? :p | 13:09 |

| Mohero|Work | simion314 what packages? | 15:33 |
| simion314 | <Mohero|Work: xine, vmware-server and other | 15:34 |
| Mohero|Work | simion314: you can install .debs from anywhere, as long as you're aware of versions - really check to see if there is a package for it, because it could mess with the repo's when you try to install something else from them and the version you have differs. | 15:34 |
| Mohero|Work | vmware-server normally comes into the repo's at the last moment (and sometimes after) - so that's a "watch this space" thing. Xine - I couldn't tell you - I don't really use it. | 15:35 |
| simion314 | Mohero|Work: but how i can do that? can i add gutsy repositories in my repositories list? | 15:36 |
| Mohero|Work | simion314: no no no !!!! | 15:36 |
| Mohero|Work | download the .deb file, then "sudo dpkg -i {yourpackage}.deb" | 15:37 |

| DanaG | Put stuff in /usr/local, perhaps. | 15:42 |
| Mohero|Work | nemo: Gentoo does do that - but keeping your system up to date is very hard to do... or at least, more work than ubuntu | 15:42 |

| Mohero|Work | nemo: it depends what i'm updating, I've broken Gentoo a few too many times :) | 15:43 |
| nemo | DanaG: thing about /usr/local is you still need to install as root, and some system stuff gets put there | 15:43 |

| simion314 | i upgradet to hardy for it | 15:47 |
| simion314 | i want recent versions | 15:47 |
| nemo | ah | 15:47 |
| nemo | wow. there's a nightmarish one to be building from source | 15:48 |
| heret1c | drat. | 15:48 |
| nemo | what with its gac | 15:48 |
| nemo | and general fragility | 15:48 |
| hydrogen | yes | 15:48 |
| hydrogen | mono is pretty bad | 15:48 |
| simion314 | usualy it should just copy some files in a folder and set some enviroment variables | 15:48 |
| heret1c | $ sudo hdparm -d1 /dev/sda | 15:48 |
| heret1c | /dev/sda: | 15:48 |
| heret1c | setting using_dma to 1 (on) | 15:48 |
| heret1c | HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device | 15:48 |
| nemo | sdparm | 15:49 |
| nemo | not hdparm | 15:49 |
| nemo | what on earth would DMA do to a SCSI device? :) | 15:49 |
| nemo | or AHCI | 15:49 |
| heret1c | nemo> it's an ide hd | 15:49 |
| nemo | heret1c: are you sure? not AHCI? | 15:50 |
| nemo | heret1c: check your bios | 15:50 |
| nemo | if it says /dev/sda... | 15:50 |
| nemo | or SATA | 15:50 |
| simion314 | is there a way to get a package with all dependencies from gutsy? if i try to download a package and try to install it will be missing other packages and i will have to download each of them and so one | 15:51 |
| nemo | not totally sure the AHCI thing would trigger use of the scsi interface frankly | 15:51 |
| nemo | might still do it for SATA | 15:51 |
| TheInfinity | simion314: most cases not because of dependencies on different versions of the same package | 15:52 |
| nemo | heret1c: anyway. still. if it is /dev/sdX you have to use sdparm | 15:53 |
| simion314 | TheInfinity: and the solution is in the end to compile my own programs, | 15:54 |
| nemo | assuming the drive supports it | 15:54 |
| nemo | heret1c: or figure out a way to switch to the IDE code :-p | 15:54 |
| heret1c | nemo: hdparm -i /dev/sda: ... Drive conforms to: ATA/ATAPI-7 T13 1532D revision 0: ATA/ATAPI-1,2,3,4,5,6,7 ... look like a scsi drive to u? 8) | 15:54 |
| simion314 | can i cheat and make an installer or an install script to install without root | 15:54 |
| simion314 | and place them in a folder in home and edit only my own enviroment | 15:55 |
| TheInfinity | simion314: or to wait until hardy is more stable | 15:55 |
| simion314 | it will be easy to remove | 15:55 |
| nemo | heret1c: it may be an IDE drive | 15:55 |
| nemo | heret1c: but the INTERFACE is the linux scsi one | 15:55 |
| heret1c | nemo> Model=SAMSUNG HM080GC | 15:55 |
| nemo | s/IDE/ATA/ | 15:55 |
| nemo | heret1c: I believe linux has always used SCSI for SATA. | 15:55 |
| simion314 | TheInfinity yes but always it will be a step behind mono witch is in development | 15:56 |
| budmang | Mohero|Work: freaking wierd, I half followed a ALAS forum upgrade last night. seems a reboot right now fixed it for zoiper at least. | 15:56 |
| nemo | heret1c: and I don't think using DMA on SATA is meaningful | 15:56 |
| budmang | it sees a bunch of surround#s dix default etc.. but it works :) | 15:56 |
| heret1c | hemo> hold on. | 15:56 |
| TheInfinity | simion314: if you need an absolute state of the art dirsto -> sidux or gentoo | 15:56 |
| simion314 | and those guys only package as rpm | 15:56 |
| nemo | s/scsi/the scsi modules/ | 15:56 |
| TheInfinity | always latest apps - and always lots of bugs ;) | 15:56 |
| nemo | TheInfinity: well. gentoo does allow you to set at what level to upgrade packages to :-p | 15:57 |
| nemo | TheInfinity: gentoo's main problem these days is lack of direction and maintenance. | 15:57 |
| TheInfinity | debian, too. sidux is your solution :) | 15:57 |
| nemo | TheInfinity: just noting that "always lots of bugs" is not accurate. | 15:57 |
| TheInfinity | nemo: perhaps because most ppl want to work and not to compile ... most gusys i know switched back to another disto because its really difficult to work with gentoo | 15:58 |
| savvas | it's weird that a window crashes and there is no /var/crash/ report | 15:58 |
| nemo | TheInfinity: been using it since '02 - some things are harder. some things are a lot easier | 15:59 |
| TheInfinity | hehe :) | 15:59 |
| nemo | TheInfinity: for a developer, gentoo has a lot of advantages | 15:59 |
| nemo | TheInfinity: for an admin with special requirements gentoo is also hugely advantageous | 15:59 |
| savvas | yeah, time is not one of them | 15:59 |
| savvas | :p | 15:59 |
| nemo | savvas: I spend less time these days updating my gentoo boxes than my ubuntu ones... | 16:00 |
| nemo | TheInfinity: I drove myself mad trying to setup a stable/maintainable setup under Fedora Core for a jabber server with various IMs hooked in | 16:00 |
| nemo | TheInfinity: ton of hand-managed RPMS. Fragile | 16:00 |
| nemo | TheInfinity: switched to Gentoo - was a breeze. | 16:00 |
| nemo | savvas: at the moment, my tally is 3 ubuntu, 5 gentoo, formerly 2 fedora core. | 16:01 |
| nemo | those have been ditched. | 16:01 |
| savvas | ouch | 16:01 |
| savvas | well i guess emerge does the trick :) | 16:02 |
| nemo | savvas: two of those gentoo boxes are a PI and PII laptop. | 16:02 |
| heret1c | ne seen http://linux-ata.org/faq.html#combined ? | 16:02 |
| nemo | savvas: one with 96MiB of memory, the other with 64MiB :) | 16:02 |
| heret1c | mo> | 16:02 |
| savvas | nemo: you use crontab for your updates right? :p | 16:02 |
| nemo | savvas: naw. I just don't update as frequently... | 16:02 |
| nemo | savvas: I like updating. is like a little christmas :) | 16:02 |
| nemo | savvas: I think crontab for updates on servers is a bad practice anyway | 16:03 |
| savvas | hehe ok | 16:03 |
| nemo | savvas: gentoo on ancient hardware seems counterintuitive. but is easier to blacklist memory hogs, and build packages with size optimisations. | 16:03 |
| savvas | nemo: I use it to notify me of updates, crontab + email :) | 16:03 |
| nemo | savvas: I could theoretically build binary packages for 'em on one of the servers, but I find it more entertaining to NFS mount / :) | 16:04 |
| nemo | then build off server that way :D | 16:04 |
| savvas | kewl :P | 16:04 |

| budmang | Touchpad horizontal scrolling :) any easy how-tos or quick fixes? | 16:21 |
| Mohero|Work | Muszek - Maybe you're in the wrong channel, unless you mean something weird is happening to your ubuntu install? | 16:21 |
| heret1c | muszek: start a club? 8) | 16:21 |
| muszek | I had gutsy and then installed debian etch on some other partition... so the grub menu was from debian. I dist-upgraded gutsy to hardy... right now uname -a tells me "Linux bobek 2.6.22-14-generic " | 16:22 |
| Mohero|Work | bumang: have a look at synaptics driver for X the readme is far too long for me to look at while i'm err.... (pretending to) work... | 16:22 |
| budmang | Ha, where do you pretend to work @? | 16:22 |
| muszek | does that mean I'm running on gutsy's kernel? | 16:22 |
| Mohero|Work | budmang: oh, I work for an APL Development company - but I'm the IT guy, so I just pretend i'm looking at security fixes when I can't really be bothered to do much else.... | 16:23 |
| Mohero|Work | i'm the IT Manager - so I CAN get away with it :P | 16:23 |
| Mohero|Work | muszek it would appear you're running Gutsy Kernel | 16:24 |
| Mohero|Work | muszek - did you compu your new kernels to the Debian/grub partition, and setup menu.lst there? you don't want it to do it automatically for you from there - it won't work - trust me | 16:25 |
| muszek | Mohero|Work: what's the best way to change it? I was thinking of running the recovery mode and making grub boot from ubuntu partition once again | 16:25 |
| Mohero|Work | muzsek: s/compu/copy/ | 16:25 |

| Mohero|Work | back later :) | 16:37 |
| muszek | re | 16:41 |
| muszek | there's no recovery mode when you boot up the CD (I used it like 2 years ago). how to I "reinstall" grub? | 16:41 |
| budmang | lol | 16:42 |
| muszek | meaning it currently "runs" from debian's partition and I want it to use ubuntu one | 16:42 |
| heret1c | update-grub? | 16:42 |
| sn0 | muszek im not sure this is a hardy question but you can use the recovering grub link on the wiki | 16:42 |
| muszek | sn0: the problem is that after dist-upgrading to hardy I'm still using gutsy kernel | 16:42 |
| sn0 | for eg https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows#head-9e881d9c5bd9a6de1c9b91c4ad388cdd131d0cea | 16:43 |
| Mohero|Work | muszek - you have grub, because you're booting. | 16:43 |
| sn0 | muszek did you use the upgrade notes to upgrade to hardy? | 16:43 |
| muszek | sn0: that's probably what I'm looking for | 16:44 |
| muszek | thanks | 16:44 |
| sn0 | To upgrade from Ubuntu 7.10, run "update-manager -d" using the update-manager package from Gutsy. | 16:44 |
| sn0 | on the release notes for hardy alpha 5 | 16:44 |
| Mohero|Work | the issue is you are not using a standard install, so you'll need to copy the info from the /boot/* and /boot/grub/menu.lst in your hardy install to the debian grub... | 16:44 |
| Mohero|Work | same as I have to do with my Gentoo grub install | 16:44 |
| muszek | sn0: yeah, that's how I've done it | 16:46 |
| muszek | Mohero|Work: but this way I'll have to do it after every kernel upgrade, right? | 16:46 |
| sn0 | strange that you would have the old kernel-image muszek , are you sure your sources.list is correct? verify that and then try reinstalling the "linux-image" package which should install 2.6.24.8.8 | 16:47 |
| Mohero|Work | muszek yes you will, you really won't want it to do it automatically if you boot another linux on the same box | 16:48 |
| muszek | sn0: sorry, I skipped the first part of the story (wrote it 15 minutes ago). I had gutsy, then installed etch on another partition (it's overwritten the bootloader) and then I dist-upgraded gutsy to hardy | 16:48 |
| heret1c | reboot | 16:48 |
| sn0 | muszek you keep saying dist-upgrade but thats not the same as update-manager -d, etch wont stop the kernel in hardy being installed | 16:49 |
| sn0 | maybe your upgrade didn't complete, or something else happened | 16:49 |
| sn0 | ill read up | 16:49 |
| muszek | the funny thing is that all that (installing etch, early dist-upgrade) was done for the sole purpose of getting away from 2.6.22 (ipw3945 freezes my laptop) | 16:49 |
| sn0 | etch uses 2.6.18, its possible to get 2.6.24 from backports or the kernel build repository, but thats another story (and not on topic in here) | 16:50 |
| Mohero|Work | ahh i missed the dist-upgrade..... that won't do anything until after reliease.... | 16:50 |
| muszek | sn0: I'm pretty sure the kernel is installed, the problem is that menu.lst on etch's partition doesn't know that | 16:50 |
| muszek | I guess I'll be fine after reading https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows | 16:50 |
| Mohero|Work | muszek can you ls /boot | 16:51 |
| Mohero|Work | http://www.pastebin.ca/ | 16:51 |
| Mohero|Work | and paste in there | 16:51 |
| muszek | sure | 16:51 |
| muszek | http://www.pastebin.ca/917712 | 16:52 |
| muszek | both 2.6.22 and 2.6.24 are present | 16:52 |
| wilhart- | please, what was command to upgrade from gutsy to hardy ? | 16:52 |
| sn0 | wilhart- if you can't read the upgrade notes, don't upgrade to hardy no offense | 16:52 |
| Mohero|Work | can you paste your /boot/grub/menu.lst in there? | 16:52 |
| sn0 | see topic | 16:52 |
| muszek | Mohero|Work: one sec | 16:54 |
| muszek | http://www.pastebin.ca/917722 | 16:55 |
| EmmerP | more people facing X problems at the moment? Mine starts up but freezes on my first action (run terminal ie) | 16:55 |
| EmmerP | after a lastest dist-upgrade | 16:56 |
| muszek | I'm about to run 'grub-install --root-directory=/ /dev/sda --recheck' ... is that ok? | 16:57 |
| muszek | sorry, without that --recheck | 16:58 |
| Mohero|Work | ok muszek that's not got anything in it from Debian Etch, so on another drive somwhere you have another grub partition, that will have the debian stuff.... you need to copy from line 140 to line 150 from your menu.lst to the debian one, and copy your kernel files to the right drive. | 16:58 |
| Mohero|Work | if you switch grub to booting the ubuntu grub stuff, you'll lose your debian stuff, unless you copy and paste pretty much manually | 16:59 |
| muszek | Mohero|Work: I'd rather re-install grub, so that it loads stuff from ubuntu's menu.lst... I'm not using etch | 17:00 |
| Mohero|Work | linux + windows seems ok, linux + linux on a dual boot, is still something boot loaders dont' like too much | 17:00 |
| muszek | weird :) | 17:00 |
| Mohero|Work | muszek ok, then if you don't want the debian stuff then I don't see why not... | 17:00 |
| Mohero|Work | ahh 5PM already :) | 17:01 |
| Mohero|Work | I've done some work today, honest :) | 17:01 |

| Zambezi | Anyone have a good idea how to print when FF and Epiphany crashed after "85% processing"? | 17:15 |
| muszek | do you guys also have ugly fonts in some apps (skype, picard in my case) after upgrading to hardy? | 17:18 |
| EmmerP | I had it with skype yes | 17:19 |
| nemo | skype is a Qt app no? | 17:19 |
| muszek | also, firefox 3 uses different fonts than ff2 in gutsy (while rendering websites, I'm not talking about menus) | 17:19 |
| muszek | yes, skype is qt | 17:19 |
| nemo | muszek: and I think FF3 has moved to greater host integration - maybe it is using your font settings in gnome? | 17:19 |
| nemo | s/host/OS/ | 17:20 |
| muszek | EmmerP: did you do something about it? | 17:20 |
| muszek | nemo: hmmm.... that might be it | 17:21 |
| muszek | yeah... I just tried epiphany and it looks the same (while opera is different) | 17:23 |
| budmang | Does it show me reconnecting over and over on irc? | 17:23 |
| muszek | budmang: nope | 17:25 |
| nemo | muszek: so whatever config Qt uses is messed up... | 17:25 |
| EmmerP | muszek: no | 17:26 |
| EmmerP | right now my whole X is freezing so ... | 17:26 |
| nemo | /etc/qt3/qtrc ? | 17:26 |
| muszek | EmmerP: yeah, that looks like a slightly more important problem :) | 17:26 |
| budmang | would there be anything making my harddrive hot :) | 17:27 |

| Zambezi | muszek: Sorry? | 17:31 |
| muszek | j/k ("ubuntu goes green and prevents you from wasting trees") | 17:32 |
| Zambezi | Now I need to find repos for Opera. Is there even one for Hardy? | 17:32 |
| muszek | Zambezi: get a .deb from opera.com | 17:33 |
| muszek | that's the quickest solution | 17:33 |
| Zambezi | muszek: Already there. | 17:34 |
| Zambezi | There isn't for Hardy. | 17:35 |
| h3sp4wn | just get static .deb work on anything | 17:35 |
| muszek | I've never had problems with using debs for "previous" releases | 17:35 |
| h3sp4wn | (as long as its x86 or amd64) | 17:35 |

| budmang | what could be making my harddrive so HOT! | 19:17 |
| martijn81 | budmang: i use silentmax hd silencers | 19:18 |
| budmang | That is an application? | 19:19 |
| martijn81 | makes them cooler and more silent | 19:19 |
| martijn81 | no! | 19:19 |
| martijn81 | those are aluminium cases for a hd | 19:19 |
| martijn81 | and i put one 120mm fab on this too | 19:19 |
| budmang | my other OS's on the same laptop are not hot. | 19:19 |
| martijn81 | i see | 19:20 |
| squee | Is there any reason that whenever I malloc in hardy, all memory is set to \0? | 19:31 |
| === HydrogenF is now known as HydrogonalPrism | ||
| theunixgeek | Is it true that LTS was moved to 8.10? | 19:36 |
| h3sp4wn | I doubt it (i.e noone else has mentioned it) | 19:37 |
| Arwen | not according to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades | 19:37 |
| theunixgeek | Thanks. I must be thinking of Kubuntu ;) | 19:38 |
| h3sp4wn | If it doesn't say it on the devel mailing list or such I wouldn't believe it | 19:38 |
| martijn81 | afaik 8.10 will just be the next (second) LTS to follow the roots of dapper | 19:38 |
| h3sp4wn | I don't think kubuntu can change those type of things | 19:38 |
| theunixgeek | h3sp4wn: because of KDE 4 | 19:38 |
| h3sp4wn | theunixgeek: Yeah but for such as the kernel they would have to support another release for longer | 19:39 |
| h3sp4wn | and all the other apps which would mean may as well do 2 LTS releases in a row | 19:39 |
| Arwen | sorry to be stupid, but how do I do upgrade to Hardy on Kubuntu? Can't figure out adept... | 19:40 |
| jussi01 | theunixgeek: kubuntu will not be a lts for 8.04 but ubuntu will be | 19:40 |
| jussi01 | Arwen: its not there yet... | 19:40 |
| Arwen | yes, I know | 19:40 |
| h3sp4wn | I wonder how they plan to do that kubuntu would need alot more paid devs | 19:40 |
| Arwen | I always use pre-releases | 19:40 |
| jussi01 | Arwen: last time it was update-manager -c -d IIRC | 19:41 |
| h3sp4wn | Use aptitude or update-manager | 19:41 |
| h3sp4wn | (don't use adept) | 19:41 |
| Arwen | huh | 19:41 |
| h3sp4wn | If you want to break your system go ahead and try to dist-upgrade with adept | 19:42 |
| Arwen | oh yeah, I still have to install kde4 manually afterwards, right? | 19:43 |
| dencrypt | yes | 19:43 |
| Arwen | there an easy way to get rid of kde3 when doing that? | 19:43 |
| h3sp4wn | Afaik there is no amarok kde4 yet | 19:44 |
| dencrypt | well beta is out | 19:45 |
| h3sp4wn | (dunno about k3b and other apps) and last I checked the fonts were messed up | 19:45 |
| h3sp4wn | Is it packaged ? | 19:45 |
| Arwen | and oh yeah, when kde4 becomes default, will that -kde4 suffix be removed from the package names? | 19:46 |
| h3sp4wn | yes | 19:46 |
| h3sp4wn | and they will be in the usual places - I am sure moving them caused some issues | 19:46 |
| Arwen | gah, it wants to install firefox3. NO. | 19:48 |
| * Arwen gives up | 19:48 | |
| h3sp4wn | konqueror4 is very nice | 19:50 |
| nemo | Arwen: what's wrong with FF3? | 19:50 |
| Arwen | it has that hideously-huge popup when you type in the address bar | 19:50 |
| h3sp4wn | (Really quick and seems to display anything I tried) | 19:50 |
| nemo | Arwen: you could restyle it in userChrome.css :) | 19:53 |
| nemo | Arwen: give it a smaller font, different colours | 19:53 |
| Arwen | I want the old one >_> | 19:53 |
| nemo | well, I have gotten used to the new one myself | 19:53 |
| nemo | I like being able to type any part of a URL or title | 19:53 |
| nemo | that used to exist as an addon, but was always slow | 19:53 |
| Arwen | it's still slow... | 19:54 |
| Arwen | anyway, why isn't the default character encoding Unicode? wtf... | 19:54 |
| nemo | Arwen: in ubuntu? | 19:55 |
| Arwen | in firefox3 | 19:55 |
| nemo | um | 19:56 |
| nemo | that is inherited from system | 19:56 |
| nemo | it is for me. | 19:56 |
| nemo | my default is UTF-8 - but then my system locale is en_CA.UTF-8 | 19:56 |
| nemo | what is your locale? | 19:56 |
| Arwen | en-US | 19:57 |
| nemo | en_US I presume you mean | 19:57 |
| nemo | well. add the .UTF-8 then | 19:57 |
| nemo | that'll be healthier for system apps anyway | 19:58 |
| heret1c | wop | 19:58 |
| Arwen | also, where did the forward/back buttons go in firefox3? | 19:58 |
| Arwen | and my fonts look oddly un-antialiased | 19:58 |
| P2502 | is it normal that i have cpu load of 80% when moving windows fast? | 20:02 |
| heret1c | Arwen: did u do a clean install from cd, or upgrade from hd installation? | 20:02 |
| Arwen | huh? I just downloaded a firefox3 tarball to examine | 20:02 |
| heret1c | P2502: goes to 100 here. | 20:03 |
| Arwen | P2502, using compiz? | 20:03 |
| Arwen | actually, it's the same without, so never mind | 20:03 |
| P2502 | Arwen: no | 20:03 |
| P2502 | isnt drawing of windows supposed to be offloaded to videocard? | 20:04 |
| dareii | anyone know why my battery status monitor isn't reading power correctly | 20:04 |
| Arwen | ff3 tabs look a bit funny... hmm | 20:04 |
| heret1c | Arwen: hardy? | 20:04 |
| Arwen | gutsy | 20:04 |
| Arwen | I don't wanna upgrade till I know what I'm getting... | 20:04 |
| heret1c | ah | 20:04 |
| Arwen | and yeah, man the tabs look broken here. | 20:05 |
| _oxygene_ | looks good for me | 20:06 |
| _oxygene_ | and my fonts are okay also | 20:06 |
| Arwen | dunno, they look slightly uneven | 20:06 |
| Arwen | but this is with KDE | 20:06 |
| Arwen | my fonts are definitely b0rk3d though | 20:06 |
| _oxygene_ | my installation is a clean setup started a week ago | 20:06 |
| nemo | Arwen: are you using the "small" theme? | 20:07 |
| Arwen | theme? | 20:07 |
| nemo | Arwen: firefox 3, the small button theme eliminates forward/back for default theme | 20:07 |
| nemo | Arwen: and the font thing is probably related to it using system fonts | 20:07 |
| === acuster is now known as avc_wet | ||
| nemo | Arwen: or whatever it thinks the system font is | 20:07 |
| Arwen | anti-aliasing works everywhere else... | 20:07 |
| Arwen | same with fonts | 20:07 |
| nemo | under kde, maybe the gtk font | 20:07 |
| bullgard4 | "detlef@MD97600:~$ i2cdetect -l; i2c-0 unknown SMBus I801 adapter at 18e0 N/A." man i2cdetect: " i2cdetect -l: Output a list of installed busses." What busses are installed? | 20:07 |
| nemo | looks fine under gnome ;) | 20:08 |
| muszek | my fonts (hardy ff3) are different then under FF2/gutsy, but I think it's because of FF is more "native" now | 20:08 |
| muszek | take a look at epiphany - ff3's fonts look the same | 20:08 |
| Arwen | apt needs support for dist-downgrade :-\ | 20:12 |
| HydrogonalPrism | no. | 20:12 |
| Assid | err | 20:12 |
| HydrogonalPrism | people need to not do dumb things. | 20:12 |
| Assid | does update manager ask you to do partial updates? | 20:12 |
| Yaroze | anyone know why xqf is unstable with hardy? it "hangs" after it has started a game | 20:13 |
| Assid | its askin for partual updates here | 20:13 |
| Yaroze | using all cpu left :) | 20:13 |
| Arwen | Assid, you've got a problem then | 20:13 |
| Arwen | hmm, I suppose I'll be spending a while recompiling software after hardy... | 20:14 |
| Assid | Arwen: are packages being rolled out? | 20:16 |
| bardyr | w00t now libc-linux headers, now i just need the kernel :D | 20:16 |
| Arwen | Assid, don't know, in the middle of an upgrade right now | 20:16 |
| Assid | your upgrading ? | 20:17 |
| Arwen | yeah | 20:17 |
| Assid | hrmm k | 20:17 |
| Assid | let me know if any packages are pending | 20:18 |
| Arwen | I suppose I'll need to recompile: mkvtoolnix, vlc, mplayer, smplayer, and | 20:18 |
| Arwen | wait, is that all? GENIUS | 20:18 |
| Assid | why do you need to recompile? | 20:18 |
| Arwen | to make them not broken | 20:18 |
| alefteris | the missing software-properties-gtk from the alpha 5 installation of ubuntu hardy is n known problem? | 20:19 |

| heret1c | Assid: seen http://linux-ata.org/faq.html#combined = xplains the dma hassle. | 20:23 |
| Assid | heret1c: interesting.. but why does it affect linux only | 20:25 |
| Assid | ts a simple thing. if another OS can handle it, linux should as well | 20:25 |
| P2502 | linux is special | 20:25 |
| Assid | and by linux i mean LINUX itself, not distro specific | 20:26 |

| pipatron | Question: If I want to find official information about ubuntu+1 on the web, where do I go? | 20:35 |
| nemo | Arwen: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.tabs.closeButtons :) | 20:35 |
| pipatron | I've been trying for quite some time to browse around on the ubuntu.com website, but it's impossible to find anything there | 20:36 |
| Arwen | nemo, yeh, I found it | 20:36 |
| nemo | I don't like that behaviour though *switches back to default* | 20:36 |
| Arwen | now to kill the location bar thingy... | 20:36 |
| * Arwen closes tabs by middle-clicking anyway | 20:36 | |
| pipatron | ctrl+w | 20:37 |
| Arwen | you can only close the foreground one that way :-P | 20:37 |
| pipatron | Yes :/ | 20:37 |
| heret1c | Er "Disable libata (CONFIG_ATA) entirely, and enable CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDE_SATA" - where? | 20:37 |
| h3sp4wn | menuconfig | 20:38 |
| h3sp4wn | or oldconfig or by editing .config direct (last not recommended) | 20:38 |
| nemo | yeah. too slow to clean up tabs without the X | 20:39 |
| nemo | don't like having to focus on 'em | 20:39 |
| nemo | and I definitely avoid middle click since that is very useful for opening URLs and I don't want to get my reflexes confused :) | 20:39 |
| pipatron | alt+f4 is good for cleaning :) | 20:40 |
| h3sp4wn | My mouse has 7 buttons but I only use 3 atm | 20:40 |
| heret1c | h3sp4wn: apparently I don't have one (menuconfig) | 20:40 |
| h3sp4wn | What do you mean those are relevent only when you are compiling a kernel | 20:40 |
| h3sp4wn | perhaps you need the ncurses dev package | 20:41 |
| heret1c | h3sp4wn: didst mean menu.config? | 20:42 |
| h3sp4wn | ??? No I am confused now | 20:42 |
| heret1c | heretic@heretichq:/$ locate menuconfig | 20:43 |

| heret1c | /usr/share/doc/menu/examples/menu.config | 20:43 |
| h3sp4wn | I really think you don't have a clue what "Disable libata (CONFIG_ATA) entirely, and enable CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDE_SATA" means | 20:43 |
| h3sp4wn | Read how to build a kernel | 20:44 |
| h3sp4wn | Those can only be changed from the .config file | 20:44 |
| heret1c | h3sp4wn: what it does is clear - how's another metter. | 20:45 |
| h3sp4wn | I would say its perfectly clear what to do but it requires knowing how to build a kernel | 20:45 |
| heret1c | h3sp4wn: blank there. | 20:46 |
| h3sp4wn | Don't be lazy how to do what you do want is really well documented | 20:47 |
| * heret1c has much the same relationship with building kernels as brain surgery | 20:47 | |
| pipatron | Rocket surgery | 20:47 |
| heret1c | h3sp4wn: of it a) concerns certain intel motherboards and n) can only be ficed by fiddling with the kernel, doesn't that imply that c) someone responsible (and preferrably competent) ought to put it there? | 20:50 |
| heret1c | tried both 2nd approaches (menulist modification) described in http://linux-ata.org/faq.html#combined with no result | 20:53 |

| thompa | i can load acer-wmi but still no wireless | 21:28 |
| PriceChild | thompa, i'd guess your hardware switch is off | 21:28 |
| thompa | PriceChild: could be yes | 21:29 |
| thompa | its bios related i know | 21:29 |
| PriceChild | its a hardware switch | 21:29 |
| PriceChild | press it | 21:29 |
| PriceChild | does a light come on? | 21:29 |
| thompa | no and it never did before | 21:29 |
| thompa | in gutsy i compiled acer acpi then latest madwifi and it worked | 21:30 |
| hit | _oxygene_, every tried btnx-config? | 21:31 |
| _oxygene_ | hit: no, what is it? | 21:37 |
| hit | also some thingy to configure all those mice | 21:38 |
| hit | for me wasn't working tho | 21:38 |
| _oxygene_ | i just don't understand while side buttons seem to be buttons 8 and 9 by default | 21:39 |
| tretle | hi, just installed alpha 5 on my system from cd, was using just a normal upgrade to hardy from gutsy before i did the fresh install... Now I have a problem though, Im stuck in 640x480 and when i go into screens and graphics from the system/administration all the options in it are blank | 21:50 |
| tretle | Also I noticed software sources seems to have disappeared and the repository option in synaptic seems broken | 21:51 |
| tretle | I only noticed because it defaulted to the irish ubuntu servers which seem to be down so i was going to change it to the main ones | 21:52 |
| tretle | I went into xorg config file and I can see where to change the color depth but am unable to see where I can change the resolution manualy | 21:53 |
| tretle | can anyone help me out? | 21:53 |
| Arwen | nooo..... dist-upgrade failed me | 21:53 |
| Arwen | apport couldn't install | 21:53 |
| Arwen | is there a way to recover from a failed upgrade? or is it nuke and reinstall? | 21:54 |
| tretle | 640x480 is completely unusable in hardy | 21:55 |
| tretle | :) | 21:55 |
| Arwen | anyone? | 21:55 |
| nemo | tretle: rerun the xorg dpkg config tool | 21:55 |
| nemo | tretle: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 21:56 |
| tretle | thanks | 21:56 |
| nemo | Arwen: you know, I actually didn't want to re-download everything, so I copied the download temp dir over :) | 21:56 |
| nemo | never needed to try it to see if that would have worked, though | 21:56 |
| Arwen | urgh.... I don't wanna reinstall :-( | 21:58 |
| h3sp4wn | well the fact you said dist-upgrade implies to me !aptitude so I am not surprised | 21:59 |
| Arwen | no, dist-upgrade as in... update-manager-core | 21:59 |
| Arwen | shorthand... | 21:59 |
| tretle | nemo, that only asked if i want to reconfigure the keyboard | 21:59 |
| Arwen | h3sp4wn, well, is there anything that can be done? | 22:01 |
| h3sp4wn | ask people who know about update-manager (not me) and provide them with some useful output | 22:03 |
| lime4x4 | latest version of hardy with all updates locks up when pairing my phone using bluetooth. Anyone else having issues when using bluetooth? | 22:05 |
| nemo | tretle: really? | 22:05 |
| nemo | tretle: one-sec | 22:05 |
| nemo | tretle: you did it as sudo right? | 22:06 |
| tretle | yep | 22:06 |
| h3sp4wn | If you go to init 1 then you get a debconf screen where you can select to configure X | 22:06 |
| h3sp4wn | there is also that cli displayconfig thing | 22:06 |
| h3sp4wn | (Not seen that since I stopped messing with xrandr) | 22:07 |
| nemo | tretle: yow. well. lemme see. | 22:07 |
| nemo | I'll try on my hardy machine | 22:07 |
| * nemo backs up his xorg config | 22:07 | |
| tretle | should all the options in screens and graphics be blank too | 22:08 |
| h3sp4wn | lime4x4: you mean just the app or hardlock the box ? | 22:08 |
| nemo | tretle: you're right. interesting | 22:08 |
| nemo | tretle: that is a recent change | 22:08 |
| tretle | screens and graphics? | 22:09 |
| nemo | tretle: your old xorg config is around there, and you could probably merge it from that, but... | 22:09 |
| nemo | why did they remove that | 22:09 |
| h3sp4wn | lime4x4: I just get nautlus cannot handle obex | 22:09 |
| nemo | tretle: no. that's very bad. :) | 22:09 |
| tretle | i did a fresh install so i cant use my old xorg config | 22:09 |
| nemo | wow. pulling a diff, the dpkg-reconfigure clobbered a bunch of stuff | 22:10 |
| nemo | tretle: now why on earth would you do that... | 22:10 |
| nemo | tretle: anyway, unless you reformatted the filesystem, old xorg.conf miiiight have been backed up | 22:10 |
| * nemo restores his old xorg.conf | 22:11 | |
| nemo | tretle: say, do you use nvidia? | 22:11 |
| tretle | wait I found a backup on an external harddrive | 22:11 |
| tretle | :) | 22:11 |
| nemo | interesting. soo, clearly they assume hardy users will configure xorg.conf by hand | 22:13 |
| h3sp4wn | No they assume it will just work without | 22:13 |
| lime4x4 | h3sp4wn hardlocks the box | 22:14 |
| tretle | I have a nvidea 7600 | 22:14 |
| tretle | nvidia | 22:14 |
| tretle | right im gonna test the new config out | 22:14 |
| h3sp4wn | lime4x4: It didn't for me but I don't fancy pressing it further just got that obex error (got loads of work I need open atm) | 22:14 |
| tretle | if I'm not back in a sec then something went horribly wrong :D | 22:15 |
| blue|palm | is wine broken for anyone else in current hardy? | 22:15 |
| lime4x4 | yeah right after entering the passkey i get the dialoge box that says paring then the computer hardlocks | 22:15 |
| nemo | h3sp4wn: why on earth would dpkg-reconfigure exclude the display config stuff though? | 22:15 |
| nemo | h3sp4wn: the xorg file it generated was missing a lot of useful stuff | 22:16 |
| nemo | h3sp4wn: the nvidia and screen sections - or do you mean they expect xorg to automagically probe all that on startup these days? | 22:16 |
| tretle | that's the screen resolution fixed :D Thanks for the help | 22:17 |
| tretle | now could someone tell me where software sources has gone? | 22:18 |

| nemo | tretle: clearly it didn't work too well in your case ;) | 22:19 |
| tretle | not at all :D | 22:20 |
| tretle | why fix something thats not broke | 22:20 |
| nemo | tretle: well, if you read that page, it is clear they were trying to simplify upgrade of new hardware | 22:20 |
| nemo | among other things | 22:20 |
| h3sp4wn | People have issues with it either way | 22:21 |
| h3sp4wn | Just writing one by hand has never been too much of an issue for me | 22:21 |
| h3sp4wn | (and means it ends up more readable) | 22:21 |
| tretle | so does anyone else have the software sources problem or is it just me? | 22:22 |

| Milos_SD | And my numeric keyboard is not working too. :( | 22:42 |

| h3sp4wn | launchpad | 22:46 |
| Milos_SD | can anyone help me with ? | 22:47 |
| pipatron | with ? | 22:47 |
| Milos_SD | why my numeric keyboard is not working | 22:47 |
| pipatron | try numlock :) | 22:47 |
| Milos_SD | and nvidia-glx-new is 2.6.24.9 version, but kernel is 2.6.24.8 | 22:47 |
| Milos_SD | and I can't use that driver | 22:48 |
| Milos_SD | :( | 22:48 |
| === HydrogonalPrism is now known as msirPlanogordyH | ||
| tretle | right so i needed to install software-properties-gtk to fix it | 22:49 |
| Milos_SD | numlock is on | 22:49 |
| pipatron | Milos_SD: thinkpad? | 22:50 |
| Milos_SD | desktop PC | 22:50 |
| Milos_SD | :( | 22:50 |
| pipatron | ok | 22:50 |
| Milos_SD | PCALL keyboard ... | 22:50 |
| Milos_SD | it is X problem ... becouse I had this Hardy kernel on Gutsy, and everything was working | 22:50 |
| pipatron | Well does the numeric keyboard work in the console? | 22:51 |
| Milos_SD | no | 22:52 |
| pipatron | So probably not a problem with X? | 22:52 |
| Milos_SD | aaa... ctrl+alt+F2 console | 22:53 |
| Milos_SD | :) | 22:53 |
| Milos_SD | I didn't try that | 22:53 |
| Milos_SD | :D | 22:53 |
| Milos_SD | and yes... "+" on numeric keyboard is doing "right mouse click" :S | 22:53 |
| pipatron | funky. | 22:54 |
| Milos_SD | it is working in the virtual console | 22:54 |
| pipatron | So hm, how come that I can boot and use the CD-rom in this ye olde laptop, until it comes to the "Detect and mount CD-ROM" part where it can't find any CD-ROM. | 22:57 |
| Milos_SD | I fix the problem | 22:59 |
| Milos_SD | :) | 22:59 |
| Milos_SD | with numeric keyboard | 22:59 |
| Milos_SD | :) | 22:59 |
| pipatron | Milos_SD: Good, now fix my missing CD-ROM | 23:00 |
| pipatron | That's not missing in the Gutsy installer but is missing in the Hardy installer | 23:00 |
| Milos_SD | that must be some bug in the installed ... install Gutsy and do distribution upgrade | 23:01 |
| Milos_SD | :) | 23:01 |
| pipatron | Sounds like work | 23:02 |
| Milos_SD | how is your CD-ROM missing ? | 23:02 |
| Milos_SD | can you boot Hardy LiveCD? | 23:03 |
| pipatron | Haven't tried, this machine only has 64MB RAM | 23:03 |
| pipatron | Trying to install Hardy server | 23:03 |
| pipatron | But it wants me to "Load CD-ROM drivers from a driver floppy" | 23:03 |
| pipatron | Kinda fun, since the installer is running from that same CD at the moment | 23:04 |
| ibkanat | i was sent here to try and figure out a bcm wifi problem in Hardy Kubunutu | 23:23 |
| ibkanat | Kubuntu | 23:23 |
| ibkanat | is there something that i can grep to find out if its installed correctly? | 23:24 |
| ibkanat | still waiting for an answer | 23:30 |
| tretl1 | would be nice if instead of the panels just appearing on the screen on start up the has an animated movement | 23:42 |
| tretl1 | the top panel would slowly move into place from the top | 23:43 |
| pipatron | bah, bloat | 23:43 |
| tretl1 | the bottom would slowly move into place from the bottom | 23:43 |
| tretl1 | its not bloat | 23:43 |
| tretl1 | bloat would be having them spin around before going into place | 23:43 |
| pipatron | how about this instead: the installer would find my cd-rom :/ | 23:44 |
| tretl1 | all_generic_ide | 23:44 |
| tretl1 | that worked for me | 23:44 |
| pipatron | where did you type that? | 23:44 |
| tretl1 | if its the busybox problem your talking about | 23:44 |
| tretl1 | in extra boot options | 23:45 |
| tretl1 | press f6 | 23:45 |
| pipatron | Don't know where the problem is really, just that I get the "No common CD-ROM drive was detected." | 23:46 |
| pipatron | I'll try that | 23:46 |
| tretl1 | cool | 23:49 |
| pipatron | Doesn't help | 23:51 |
| peanutb | is this the correct channel for KDE4 help | 23:51 |
| peanutb | if so, how would i start plasma after it has crashed? | 23:51 |
| pipatron | How could this be the KDE4 channel? | 23:51 |
| peanutb | it would be the kubuntu channel | 23:52 |
| pipatron | I thought KDE4 wasn't even used in kubuntu hardy heron | 23:52 |
| Flannel | Yes it is, although only half of them | 23:52 |
| peanutb | its going to be in the final relese correct? | 23:53 |
| Flannel | Both 3.5 and 4.0 will be supported in Hardy, which is why Kubuntu won't be LTS for Hardy | 23:53 |
| tretl1 | pipatron - kde4 is the reason kubuntu hardy wont be an lts release | 23:53 |
| pipatron | tretl1: Ah. | 23:53 |
| peanutb | Flannel: that make sense | 23:54 |
| peanutb | shall i ask in #kde then | 23:55 |
| Flannel | And support for both is in #kubuntu, although there may or may not be a #kubuntu-kde4, but #kubuntu will let you know | 23:55 |
| pipatron | ask in both | 23:55 |
| Flannel | peanutb | 23:55 |
| pipatron | You already asked here :P | 23:55 |
| peanutb | ah that is whee the confusion arrised. I was on efnet's #kubuntu and it sAID to go away | 23:56 |
| Flannel | peanutb: freenode's #kubuntu is the official. EFnet is... well... EFnet. | 23:57 |
| pipatron | efnet is mostly for people who smoke a lot of weed | 23:57 |
| peanutb | Flannel: i know.. in irssi its hard to distinguish | 23:57 |
| * peanutb knows a few efneters who just use perscriptions | 23:58 | |
