| Tuv0k | can't understand why its this particular kernel | 02:24 |
| Tuv0k | I don't know if it does not like the resolution I have it set to upon boot? | 02:24 |
| Tuv0k | The fact that I have it to show text? | 02:25 |

| mrooney | what is the package for bugs in the "Add/Remove" application? is that actually synaptic? | 04:46 |
| Flannel | mrooney: no, uh... shoot, I know this. | 04:46 |
| mrooney | haha, can't remember Flannel? | 04:52 |
| mrooney | looks like gnome-app-install | 04:59 |
| persia | mrooney: For GNOME, it is gnome-app-install | 05:00 |
| Tuv0k | for crying out loud, I have been trying to unsubscribe to bug reports but launchpad keeps saying I'm not allowed here? | 05:04 |

| danue1 | Can someone help? | 10:16 |
| qense | hello | 10:31 |
| === dodger_ is now known as Hurtz | ||
| qense | maybe we should start a wiki page or brainstorm like site where we can brainstorm about how to get upstream involved | 11:17 |
| qense | (more involved actually) | 11:17 |
| qense | a way to get developers, bug triagers and ideas upstream and here, downstream | 11:17 |
| qense | Brainstorm has published it code, we could use that | 11:18 |
| persia | Many upstreams are involved, in one way or another. | 11:21 |
| persia | Common things are: | 11:21 |
| persia | * Upstreams having a bug contact who subscribes to LP bugs | 11:21 |
| persia | * Upstreams having a close relationship with a Debian maintainer who follows LP bugs | 11:22 |
| persia | * Upstreams having a good bug tracker that integrates well with LP | 11:22 |
| qense | I know that | 11:24 |
| qense | but they aren't very visible and the upstream contacts don't have very much rights on their package | 11:24 |
| qense | and of course we need to have contact with more than just Debian | 11:25 |
| qense | brainstorm contains a lot of ideas that aren't about Ubuntu or Brainstorm | 11:25 |
| persia | I agree about multiplicity of contacts, but the special relationship with Debian often means that is a very good path, as the Debian maintainer is often involved with upstream. | 11:26 |
| === thekorn_ is now known as thekorn | ||
| persia | For permissions, that's a harder issue. How are upstreams validated, as compared to the general public? How should they request rights? Would it be granted on a per-package basis? | 11:26 |
| persia | Regarding brainstorm, there are always lots of ideas. Most just take someone to do it. Can be upstream or downstream, really. | 11:27 |
| qense | and also a lot of things that are written here could benefit projects like GNOME or other distribtutions very much | 11:29 |
| persia | True. Essentially it needs someone to convert an idea into a spec, a spec into a patch, a patch into a revision, and the revision into a release. Each step typically requires significant effort. | 11:33 |
| persia | While asking upstreams to look at brainstorm may help, I tend to believe the best way to handle these is for interested parties to push something to the next step. | 11:33 |
| danuel | Anyone know what to do in 8.04 for problems with video card resolutions? | 11:33 |
| danuel | xorg.conf doesn't seem to control resolution. RandR doesn't recognize the correct resolutions (xrandr -q) | 11:34 |
| persia | For things on brainstorm, that would be generally writing up the correct behaviour in a clear and useful way (spec), and getting it to the developers (upstream enhancement request or distro spec, depending). | 11:34 |
| persia | danuel: You may have better luck in #ubuntu+1, although you may have discovered a bug related to your specific hardware, in which case the X maintainers would probably like to get a bug report detailing what went wrong, how it went wrong, along with your configuration files and logs. | 11:35 |
| qense | there is also #ubuntu-x for... | 11:36 |
| qense | X issues | 11:36 |
| danuel | I'm new to Ubuntu, ... -x is for X11? and +1 is for ? | 11:36 |
| qense | +1 is for the development release | 11:37 |
| danuel | I see. Thanks | 11:37 |
| afflux | morning | 12:06 |
| qense | hello | 12:06 |
| afflux | huh, I broke bzr | 12:07 |
| afflux | how embarrasing | 12:07 |
| qense | in what way? | 12:07 |
| afflux | locks | 12:07 |
| qense | ah | 12:07 |
| qense | you can use the ssh:// protocol in launchpad to surf to it | 12:08 |
| qense | and delete the lock files | 12:08 |
| afflux | "Unable to obtain lock file:///home/k/.5-a-day-data/.bzr/branch/lock held by fnord@pentabarf.de on host hegg [process #26877] locked 13 hours, 20 minutes ago" | 12:08 |
| afflux | yep, I break-lock'ed it | 12:08 |
| afflux | err, no. it didn't work | 12:09 |
| qense | someone did commit something to the repository | 12:11 |
| qense | maybe you have to delete your own lock files | 12:12 |
| qense | if there are any | 12:12 |
| danuel | qense, the nvidia-glx-new and nvidia-xconfig worked. Thanks. | 12:13 |
| qense | ok | 12:13 |
| danuel | The only reminaing issue is wireless, broadcom BCM4310 ... any thoughts on that? | 12:14 |
| qense | you could search at ubuntuforums.org | 12:14 |
| qense | weird btw :) at #ubuntu+1 there is a discussion about how to report a bug and here a support question :P | 12:14 |
| danuel | ;) | 12:15 |
| eternal_fizzer | hello - complete newbie - I'm running Ubuntu 7.04 - firefox died & won't restart, tried opening update manager, it says software index broken, so opened Synaptic update manager, and tried "fix broken packages" but same problems. | 12:21 |
| persia | eternal_fizzer: Sounds like you have a corrupt package cache. You likely want #ubuntu to get someone to help you clean it up. | 12:24 |
| eternal_fizzer | thanks - I'll try there | 12:25 |
| qense | hello again | 12:49 |
| afflux | welcome back qense | 12:49 |
| afflux | the message about the bzr log was wrong, I just removed and re-pulled the whole branch and now everything works | 12:49 |

| penguin42 | I'd like to suggest that #187274 get raised above 'low' - it's also marked as low even though it causes GPM to take all RAM | 14:05 |
| penguin42 | it is marked as 'fixed released' but it's still happening | 14:06 |

| ubotu | Launchpad bug 196688 in gnome-power-manager "GPM in Hardy seems to have a memory leak" [Low,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/196688 | 14:10 |
| pochu | penguin42: you can start reopening it | 14:10 |
| pochu | penguin42: I'll do it | 14:11 |
| penguin42 | pochu: For reference what's the right way to do that? | 14:14 |
| penguin42 | it's possible of course it is a different leak; all the latest ones seem to be related to doing things to audio (which is what bit me) - but having GPM eat all your RAM is a bit nasty | 14:15 |
| pochu | of course it is | 14:15 |
| pochu | penguin42: click on the arrow next to the status or importance or the package name, and change the Status to Confirmed (or whatever fits better) | 14:16 |
| pochu | I've already done it and milestoned it for Hardy | 14:16 |
| pochu | we will have 2.22.1 in, so hopefully it's better than 2.22.0 | 14:17 |
| penguin42 | ah ok, back to confirmed | 14:17 |
| penguin42 | pochu: Thanks | 14:18 |
| pochu | (I already changed the status BTW) | 14:18 |
| penguin42 | The actual upgrade to Hardy has been the cleanest I've had in a long time - only immediate problem was nspluginwrapper not putting links in the right place (which was a known issue) - but coming back from hibernate it's not a happy bunny; that gpm problem, netowkring not coming back and I'm not 100% convinced audio is right | 14:19 |
| pochu | network -> I think it's being worked on (look at network-manager bugs) | 14:20 |
| penguin42 | yeh; it's the 187274 I mentioned above I think | 14:21 |

| afflux | just logged into my gnome/hardy account, and my panels were all grey, took about three minutes until they showed up with the applets and starters and so on | 17:56 |
| afflux | when they were grey, .xsession-errors showed "(gnome-panel:7061): CRITICAL **: panel_applet_frame_change_background: assertion `PANEL_IS_WIDGET (GTK_WIDGET (frame)->parent)' failed" | 17:57 |
| afflux | when they finished,"(gnome-panel:7061): Gtk-WARNING **: gtk_widget_size_allocate(): attempt to allocate widget with width -5 and height 24" was the only "new" line | 17:57 |
| mrooney | afflux: oh yeah that is a new feature | 18:05 |
| afflux | ah, cool :) | 18:06 |
| mrooney | lots of complaints about panels loading too fast and not giving enough error messages | 18:06 |
| afflux | right, so you slowed it a bit? | 18:06 |
| afflux | cool, I was wandering when this will be implemented! | 18:06 |
| mrooney | yup, no problem! | 18:06 |
| secretlondon | panels loading too fast?? | 18:06 |
| afflux | yep, I was wandering. right. wondering of course ;) | 18:06 |
| secretlondon | so booting time deliberately slowed?? | 18:06 |
| mrooney | haha secretlondon I was being extremely sarcastic, I have no idea | 18:07 |
| secretlondon | right.. | 18:07 |
| afflux | I even seem to be too slow to get a panel running in gdb. | 18:08 |
| secretlondon | is something using all cpu like e-d-s or xorg? | 18:09 |
| secretlondon | (there are bugs on both of those about that) | 18:09 |
| afflux | hm, don't know | 18:09 |
| afflux | when restarting the panel right now, it works as usual | 18:10 |
| crimsun | killing the panel(s) doesn't appear to give me the n-m-gnome icon back. Hmph. | 18:13 |
| afflux | oh, yes. this is missing | 18:13 |
| crimsun | then again, I'm using neither metacity nor compiz, so my spouting off is likely discounted ;) | 18:14 |
