yoyonedI have a GeForce 6100 nForce 430.  The restricted driver manager does not show anything to install.02:35
LSD|Ninjayoyoned: that's normal right now02:35
yoyonedLSD|Ninja: any thing I can hack about to get it to work02:36
LSD|NinjaI'm not sure02:36
yoyonedLSD|Ninja: ok, thanks02:37
LSD|Ninjayou could install nvidia-glx manually but I think a recent round of updates broke that too02:37
LSD|NinjaAnyone else getting weird bootsplash corruption and problems with the gdm greeter? O_o06:30

RAOFLSD|Ninja: Yes, every now and then; maybe it's a race condition in the framebuffer driver?11:15
LSD|NinjaAt least I'm not alone there like I seem to be on the greeter thing. I wish I knew wtf was up with that, even changing from gdmgreeter to gdmlogin still doesn't seem to get me any closer to the GUI. It used to work, soemthing has broken I jsut have nfi what11:18
RAOFOh, it works almost all the time for me.  When the framebuffer is messed up, it also messes up X.11:32
LSD|NinjaIt started out that just the progress bar would be screwed up but a recent round of (pre Alpha 2) updates messed it up entirely though it does come good every once in a while and of course I get the greeter crashing message11:34
RAOFNah, I don't got that.11:38
s0u][ightis X fixed?11:40
LSD|Ninjait depends on how it was broken for you :P11:46
s0u][ightit wasn't11:48
s0u][ighti didn't upgrade yet11:48
LSD|NinjaX appears to work for me, I just can't log in or do anything because gdm keeps crashing11:48
s0u][ightok i'll wait some longer before upgrading11:52

LSD|Ninja>_< latest xorg-xserver-core update restored my greeter but the splash is still b0rked, going to try a final reinstall and see what happens17:14
Klanticushi... I'm using kubuntu, and it stopped working after an update... kdm do not work anymore17:46
JontheEchidnaKlanticus: should be fixed in in 4:4.0.98-0ubuntu217:46
Klanticusand the bootsplash don't work too17:46
LSD|NinjaKlanticus: all kinds of weird corruption?17:47
LSD|Ninjaranging from the bar appearing in three different places to what looks like a siblinal digital message?17:48
KlanticusLSD|Ninja: no... it just doesn't appear17:48
KlanticusLSD|Ninja: it show me the console17:48
PiciIn Intrepid?17:49
KlanticusPici: kubuntu 8.10 alpha 1 (amd64)17:50
PiciKlanticus: Just checking ;)17:51
LSD|NinjaKlanticus: I get that from time to time too but I have no idea if it's something I've done or related to the main issue I'm having17:51
Klanticusi'm fetching more updates now... let's see if they solve the problem17:51
JontheEchidnaI've not had a splash since I upgraded a hardy install to pre-alpha117:51
KlanticusJontheEchidna: I had splash before this update17:52
LSD|Ninjasplash works in Hardy. It's 1280x1024 (I'd rather it be 1024x768) but it works. Intrepid is where is went crazy17:52
LSD|Ninjaworks for me*17:52
Klanticuswell... it's not working yet... looks like kdm can't find some theme file18:02
Klanticusit just show a message complaining about not finding a theme and then exits18:02
JontheEchidnaKlanticus: what version is kdm at?18:03
KlanticusJontheEchidna: Version: 4:4.0.98-0ubuntu118:04
JontheEchidnaRiddell said 0-ubuntu2 should fix it18:04
JontheEchidna*-0ubuntu218:05
JontheEchidnaso I'd watch for that18:05
KlanticusJontheEchidna: how do I get it? apt isn't downloading it18:05
JontheEchidnaI don't think it's done building yet18:05
KlanticusJontheEchidna: ah... ok.. I'll wait them18:06
KlanticusJontheEchidna: thank you18:06
JontheEchidnanp18:06
cbrwhy is opengl (kde4 kwin effects to be specific) broken in intrepid?18:09
jbroomeopengl came up on the "wheel of broken" today18:13
cbrit has been broken for over a week18:15
Nece228Does ubuntu will change that dark brown theme in ubuntu 8.10?18:24
Nece228In alpha 2 ubuntu's look didnt changed18:26
Nece228Maybe this will be final look ?18:26
LSD|NinjaI have no idea what they were smoking when they came up with the new theme in Intrepid, people want *less* brown, not more18:27
* JontheEchidna uses kubuntu so he doesn't have to deal with that :D18:27
Nece228LSD|Ninja: thats it18:28
Nece228But i that look isn't ugly for me :D18:28
LSD|NinjaJontheEchidna: you have to deal with KDE, which is worse :P18:29
* JontheEchidna starts flamewar18:29
JontheEchidna*obligatory18:29
Nece228LSD|Ninja: >:( kde is not bad18:30
LSD|NinjaI *hate* ath5k, please put madwifi back in in time for release20:14
LSD|Ninjawhat's the way to install nvidia now again?20:24
papabeanLSD|Ninja: I used sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-173 for my card.20:41
papabeanThen I used nvidia-settings to generate a new xorg.conf20:41
papabeanI can't validate that that's the preferred method, but it worked for me.20:42
papabeanThat brought in the source package which built the appropriate kernel module.20:44
papabeanThat being said, that was the third nvidia-glx- package I tried (1 because I was hasty, 1 because my card was listed).20:44
LSD|NinjaI'll give that a go as soon as the restricted-extras get done installing20:47
papabeanAnyone else using Kmail?21:16
LSD|Ninjafor the love of all that's holy how in the hell do I kill that utterly retarded PC Speaker as a sound card driver? >_<21:17
UnksiLSD|Ninja: rmmod pcspkr?21:17
Unksithat should kill it for good :P21:17
Unksi(and blacklist so it wont be loaded on boot)21:17
LSD|NinjaUnksi: I tried that and snd_pcsm, neither worked. It still sounds like my hard disk crashes each time I log in21:18
Unksiok21:18
=== matt64- is now known as erle-
yuriypapabean: I am on hardy. but I'm guessing you're asking about intrepid since you're in here21:24
=== emma is now known as emmy
papabeanUnless you're experiencing crashes right after mail retrieval on IMAP accounts.21:26
papabeanThe problem could be the same.21:26
papabeanHard to troubleshoot what's going on since even running from console gives no good output.21:26

Jordan_UI have installed linux-restricted-modules but I still can't modprobe ath_{hal,pci}22:50
Jordan_UI have installed linux-restricted-modules but I still can't modprobe ath_{hal,pci}22:51
LSD|Ninjalinux-restricted-modules are for an older kernel, the ydon't work in Intrepid22:55
LSD|Ninjawhich is a shame, because ath5k really, really sucks22:55
Jordan_ULSD|Ninja, ath5k works great in Fedora 9 for me23:07
Jordan_ULSD|Ninja, Is it missing features / unstable ( why does it suck ) ?23:07
LSD|NinjaActually, ath5k sucked more in Fedora than it does in Intrepid but it still doesn't work anywhere near as well as madwifi23:08
Jordan_ULSD|Ninja, Doesn't work at all for me in intrepid, what problems have you had with it?23:09
LSD|NinjaIn Fedora it could never keep a connection up for a few minutes whereas in Intrepid it's relatively stable but is dog slow23:09
Jordan_ULSD|Ninja, Did you have to do anything special to get ath5k to work in intrepid?23:10
LSD|NinjaNope, it was as easy to get going as madwifi in Hardy23:11
LSD|NinjaWell, when I could get into the GUI that is23:11
=== valehru is now known as beilabs_home
Jordan_UAny ideas on how to troubleshoot ath5k not working?23:56
