| gluer | hi, alpha 3 out thursday? | 05:03 |
| gluer | can the intel wireless iwl3954 firmware be included, i think it was missing in alpha 2 | 05:06 |
| RAOF | I don't think it was? | 05:06 |
| RAOF | Or, at least, my iwl3945 hasn't stopped working at any point in the Intrepid cycle. | 05:07 |
| gluer | i did a fresh install with alpha 2 cd | 05:07 |
| gluer | im pretty sure it was missing from alpha 2 coz i installed it about 5 times | 05:11 |
| gluer | then had to download and copy it into firmware | 05:12 |
| Hobbsee | mine's been working fine too | 05:19 |
| LSD|Ninja | Desktop CDs are due to drop in Alpha 3, right? | 05:59 |
| * LSD|Ninja can't wait | 05:59 | |
| gluer | lsdninja : what do u mean? | 06:01 |
| gluer | do u mean the alpha 3 cd? | 06:03 |
| scyrma | I've been using Debian/sid for many years at home.. now on Ubuntu at work .. I miss the thrill and occasional brokeness of Sid .. is Intrepid comparable, or will my box explode? :) | 06:18 |
| RAOF | Pretty comparable. | 06:19 |
| LSD|Ninja | Lots of stuff is broken in Intrepid right now, you'll cream your pants by the sound of it | 06:20 |
| RAOF | We've past the hugely-less-stable-than-Sid mass-import stage. Now it should be just the regular ordinary development version brokenness, pretty much. | 06:20 |
| scyrma | hmm.. sounds like fun | 06:20 |
| LSD|Ninja | Speaking of Sid, I realise that acronym means "Still in Development" but was that chosend because Sid too is a character from Toy Story? | 06:21 |
| scyrma | I think it's both .. I think the acronym is a "backronym" too | 06:22 |
| RAOF | "Sid will break your toys". | 06:23 |
| RAOF | Is the source, I believe. | 06:23 |
| LSD|Ninja | It makes sense, I'm just wondering if that's the reason it was chosen | 06:24 |
| RAOF | I think it was, yes. | 06:31 |
| RAOF | Goddamnit, nvidia! Fix the frikkin full-screen black flashes when changing clockspeed already. | 06:46 |
| hyperair_ | O_o | 06:46 |
| hyperair_ | what? | 06:46 |
| hyperair_ | weren't you using nouveau? | 06:47 |
| RAOF | Today I'm testing nvidia-glx-177. | 06:47 |
| hyperair_ | my card doesn't give black flashes when changing clock speed | 06:47 |
| hyperair_ | i see | 06:47 |
| RAOF | While running compiz? | 06:47 |
| hyperair_ | yes | 06:47 |
| hyperair_ | i use nvclock | 06:47 |
| hyperair_ | and coolbits or wahtever it was for changing the clock speed isn't existent on my card | 06:48 |
| hyperair_ | either that or my driver | 06:48 |
| hyperair_ | so nvclock uses some other backend to do it | 06:48 |
| RAOF | Well, the nvidia drivers will automatically downclock to save power. | 06:48 |
| hyperair_ | seriously? | 06:48 |
| RAOF | At least on my laptop carde. | 06:48 |
| RAOF | Yes. | 06:48 |
| hyperair_ | i never knew that | 06:48 |
| hyperair_ | like cpu freq scaling huh | 06:48 |
| RAOF | I can tell, because everytime they do, the whole screen flashes black! | 06:48 |
| hyperair_ | lol isn't there a way to disable it | 06:49 |
| RAOF | There might be. On the other hand, I'm a bit of a fan of not burning more battery than strictly necessary. | 06:49 |
| LSD|Ninja | I wonder if they're waiting for Alpha 3 before pushing out the new nvidia 96.43 package... | 06:50 |
| hyperair_ | simple solution to that: tune it to the lowest clock speed and force it to stay | 06:50 |
| RAOF | Well, that option isn't exposed in any of the tools I have. | 06:50 |
| hyperair_ | LSD|Ninja: doesn't nvidia-glx-96 work? | 06:50 |
| RAOF | He's almost certainly talking about a version that works with the Xserver 1.5 ABI. | 06:51 |
| hyperair_ | oh | 06:51 |
| LSD|Ninja | hyperair_: last I checked, it was 96.43.05. Latest is 96.43.07. nVidia don't explicitly mention xorg 1.5 (they may be waiting for it to ge releases) but I still want to try iy | 06:52 |
| hyperair_ | okay... so that means that i'm not going to get any nvidia support if i switch to intrepid now | 06:52 |
| hyperair_ | =( | 06:52 |
| hyperair_ | then i'll just sit around in arch and wait for it to work | 06:53 |
| murlidhar | i have install intrepid as a base installation. and have put lxde as the default window manager. i am trying to change the wallpapers but i am not able to since i can't remember where the settings are . | 07:30 |
| murlidhar | i accidently activated a radio button in the gui and the problem started | 08:14 |
| murlidhar | why is the channel so quiet? | 08:14 |
| murlidhar | or is it me lagging? | 08:15 |
| murlidhar | anyone ? | 08:15 |
| root0 | hi. anyone know how to enable nvidia propietary driver? i know someone did it... | 08:24 |
| hyperair__ | install nvidia-glx-xxx | 08:26 |
| RAOF | "sudo aptitude install nvidia-glx-177 && sudo nvidia-xconfig" (and then probably remove the rgb.txt line from your xorg.conf. | 08:26 |
| hyperair__ | what rgb.txt line? | 08:26 |
| RAOF | Unless you've got a geforce 5, in which case you replace 177 with 173. Or have a geforce 4, in which case you replace 177 with 96. Or have a geforce 2 or below, in which case your computer combusts. | 08:27 |
| RAOF | hyperair__: Apparently nvidia-xconfig will write a line that's no longer accepted in Xserver 1.5; I don't think I hit it because I actually had an xorg.conf file. | 08:28 |
| hyperair__ | i see | 08:29 |
| hyperair__ | i never had a rgb.txt line before | 08:29 |
| root0 | i have a geforce 6200 card. is this one still suported? | 08:29 |
| RAOF | Yes. | 08:29 |
| RAOF | It's a geforce 6. That's still supported by the 177 driver. | 08:30 |
| hyperair__ | T_T geforce4 for me | 08:30 |
| root0 | thanks. i'l install it now. | 08:30 |
| RAOF | hyperair__: Nvidia hate you :) | 08:32 |
| hyperair__ | >=( hate you too nvidia | 08:33 |
| root0 | one more thing that i hit today. after a clean install the splash screen seems to be broken. i'm not sure how to isolate and find were is the problem. | 08:34 |
| RAOF | The bootsplash? Yeah, that's borken. | 08:34 |
| RAOF | It's usplash (or possibly vm86, or uvesafb) | 08:34 |
| root0 | i'm not using it, but i just wanted to be sure that it is a known problem. | 08:36 |
| root0 | it's not working. nvidia-glx-177 is installed but nvidia-xconfig is not. if i try to install nvidia-xconfig synaptic is trying to remove nvidia-glx-177. is kinda odd... and on gnome-app-install it says this: "NVidia binary X.Org driver ('new' driver) cannot be installed on your computer type (i386)." | 08:49 |

| ace_ | Hi all | 12:53 |
| ace_ | anyone here using xgl? | 12:53 |
| hyperair__ | why would you want to use xgl? | 12:54 |
| ace_ | i've always used xgl and i think its better than just xorg | 12:54 |
| Turski | why don't you use aiglx? | 13:01 |
| hyperair__ | xgl is the worst thing you could do to get 3d working | 13:01 |
| hyperair__ | seriously | 13:01 |
| hyperair__ | it's slow, adds an extra layer | 13:01 |
| hyperair__ | bla | 13:01 |
| ace_ | not 3d, just compiz-fusion | 13:02 |
| ace_ | brb | 13:02 |
| s0u][ight | hello if you have 2 .deb files (new kernel) and one is an image and the other an header wich do you need to install first? | 13:03 |
| gnomefreak | s0u][ight: doesnt matter much IIRC but you are safe with image | 13:05 |
| gnomefreak | than headers | 13:05 |
| hyperair__ | ace_: sorry, i meant compiz fusion too. aiglx > xgl | 13:05 |
| gnomefreak | hint you dont need headers for normal useage | 13:05 |
| murlidhar | hi all | 13:47 |
| murlidhar | i have installed intrepid by doing custom installation. | 13:48 |
| murlidhar | now i want to install pulse audio without having alsa drivers | 13:48 |
| murlidhar | is it possible ? | 13:48 |
| murlidhar | if so what are the packages that are needed ? | 13:49 |
| murlidhar | !pulseaudio | 13:49 |
| ubottu | PulseAudio is a sound server intended as a drop-in replacement for !ESD - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio for information and installation instructions | 13:49 |
| murlidhar | is alsa required ? | 13:52 |
| murlidhar | ikonia: are u busy ? | 13:53 |
| linkinxp | hello in my UPdate-Manager i have a package called Ubuntu-Desktop and i can't select it ! whats wrong?? | 14:03 |

| DanaG | One thing that really bugs me: "Lock Applet" does not work as one would expect. | 17:52 |
| DanaG | If you change screen resolutions... chances are, your panel layout will be trampled upon. | 17:53 |
| LSD|Ninja | That's assuming you can change resolutions without hand editing xorg.conf >_< | 17:55 |
| DanaG | My laptop can. | 17:59 |
| DanaG | I do have to edit xorg.conf to change touchpad settings, though. | 18:00 |
| LSD|Ninja | I can get it to change resolutions without messing with xorg.conf after a fashion but there are times when I feel editing xorg.conf would be faster. It's been 10 years, why is this still so goddamn difficult? | 18:03 |
| DanaG | alt-f2. xrandr -s 1440x900 -- that's how I do it. I only use one monitor, though. | 18:05 |
| DanaG | !find qatomicpointer.h | 18:36 |
| ubottu | File qatomicpointer.h found in qt4-doc-html | 18:36 |
| DanaG | qt4-doc-html? That's odd. | 18:37 |
| DanaG | !find qatomicpointer | 18:37 |
