| jdrake | How is jfs and xfs going for file system performance these days? | 00:30 |
| RAOF | ext3 has got a lot faster; I don't know about those. | 00:31 |

| bronson | Is there a way to use the nv driver with Intrepid 4? | 01:11 |
| bronson | Or am I stuck at 800x600? :) | 01:11 |
| dupondje | any id how I can check content of initramfs ? | 01:11 |
| bronson | dupondje, check /boot. | 01:12 |
| dupondje | how can I unpack it ? :) | 01:12 |
| bronson | it's just a gzipped cpio archive I think. | 01:13 |
| dmoerner | dupondje, gunzip initrd.gz | cpio -imdF i think | 01:14 |
| dmoerner | or -idv | 01:14 |
| dmoerner | to recreate run find . -print -depth | cpio -ov | gzip >initrd | 01:14 |
| bronson | How do I discover what driver my X is using? | 01:15 |
| bronson | ~/.xsession-errors is looking pretty ufamiliar. | 01:15 |
| dmoerner | bronson, look in /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 01:15 |
| bronson | dmoerner, ah, cool. That looks familiar | 01:16 |
| dupondje | worked :D | 01:16 |

| bronson | Wait, Intrepid's Compiz still can't resize windows on the fly? | 02:18 |
| crdlb | "on the fly"? | 02:18 |
| crdlb | you mean without the rectangle? | 02:18 |
| bronson | crdlb, exactly. | 02:18 |
| crdlb | that's a deviation by ubuntu from the compiz defaults | 02:19 |
| crdlb | (and a very good one) | 02:19 |
| bronson | why is it a good one? | 02:19 |
| bronson | it makes me feel like I'm using a Mac SE. | 02:19 |
| crdlb | because resizing with a compositing manager is slow and will be for a while | 02:19 |
| crdlb | and on top of that, gtk+ already sucks at resizing (mainly because of its overuse of subwindows) | 02:20 |
| bronson | Huh. | 02:20 |
| crdlb | then change the resize mode to Normal and suffer the slowness :) | 02:20 |
| bronson | Owell, guess I'll run intrepid without the desktop effects too. | 02:20 |
| crdlb | fantastic | 02:21 |
| crdlb | it might even be ok with your driver, but that would definitely be an exception | 02:22 |
| crdlb | I've heard it's very good with the open source R500 driver | 02:22 |
| JontheEchidna | KDE4 is bit by the same problem with the nvidia drivers in particular | 02:22 |
| bronson | crdlb, how do I change the resize mode? | 02:22 |
| crdlb | ccsm > Resize Windows > Resize Mode | 02:23 |
| bronson | Oh crap. Don't set wobbly windows friction to 0.1. | 02:26 |
| * bronson is going to have fun going through ccsm... | 02:26 | |
| bronson | crdlb, right on. that worked great. Thanks! | 02:29 |
| bronson | I'm using a GeForce 7100 -- doesn't appear to be any slowdown at all. | 02:30 |
| crdlb | cool, I think the geforce 8 and 9 cards are a lot worse though | 02:32 |
| crdlb | (ie the nvidia driver has really poor 2d acceleration with those models) | 02:32 |
| bronson | that makes sense. | 02:32 |
| bronson | Hm. When compiz is running, the Gnome keyboard shortcuts don't work. | 02:39 |
| bronson | Ah. You can set keybindings in ccsm. | 02:46 |
| Ziroday | In intrepid does the desktop installer do encrypted partitions or still only the alternate installer? | 02:51 |
| cmdrpinksock | ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh | 02:53 |
| cmdrpinksock | yup, the upgradew breaks | 02:53 |
| cmdrpinksock | lol | 02:53 |
| Hobbsee | you were expecting something else? | 02:56 |

| RAOF | Fredd: Yes. | 05:26 |
| Fredd | which package? | 05:26 |
| Fredd | or core? | 05:26 |
| RAOF | Probably a xulrunner bug. | 05:27 |
| Fredd | oh and how come when i have like 6 windows of the same app they are not grouped in the gnome-panel...should a file a gnome request or is this customizable? | 05:41 |

| Finnish | e.g. my home folder to my desktop? | 05:55 |
| bronson | Finnish, ln -s ~ ~/Desktop | 07:09 |
| Finnish | Thanks! | 07:10 |
| Fredd | ROAF: the problem seems to be related to compiz | 07:57 |

| Belboz99 | Hey all, anyone here know if this newer version of X.org is likely to resolve an issue I'm having displaying at 1920x1080P on a Samsung LCD HDTV? | 09:48 |
| Belboz99 | the machine we're using to display at that res is currently running Ubuntu 8.04 with Mythbuntu added on | 09:49 |
| Belboz99 | something happened in the past few weeks to cause that functionality to break | 09:50 |
| Belboz99 | likely an "update" | 09:50 |
| siimo | i will upgrade to ibex tonight] | 09:51 |
| Belboz99 | hey siimo, what do you think? | 09:52 |
| Belboz99 | is it worth upgrading the machine to Ibex in order to see if it will resolve my X.org issue? | 09:53 |
| Unksi | Belboz99: you could try with the livecd | 09:53 |
| Unksi | alpha4 was released yesterday | 09:53 |
| Belboz99 | Unksi: yeah, I suppose that's worth a shot | 09:53 |
| Unksi | try it also with the drivers (nvidia etc) to see how it works with them | 09:54 |
| Belboz99 | k | 09:54 |
| Belboz99 | I'm using Ibex in a VM right now, just getting a feel for it | 09:55 |
| Unksi | because they may give better funtionality | 09:55 |
| Belboz99 | yeah | 09:55 |
| Belboz99 | It | 09:55 |
| Belboz99 | 's a radeon 7000 GPU | 09:55 |
| Belboz99 | it worked perfectly fine OTOB for months until that silly update :/ | 09:55 |
| Unksi | :/ | 09:56 |
| Belboz99 | er, Out of the box, OOTB? | 09:56 |
| Unksi | i guess thats not even supported by fglrx | 09:56 |
| Belboz99 | nope :( | 09:56 |
| Unksi | so it should work without installing any drivers | 09:56 |
| Belboz99 | should, that's how it worked before | 09:56 |
| Unksi | if it works that is | 09:56 |
| Belboz99 | hell, it worked off the live CD at first, now I downloaded an updated version of the CD and that doesn't work in live mode either | 09:57 |
| Unksi | ive had serious performance issues with radeon 9200, i just switched to another low end card from nvidia | 09:57 |
| Belboz99 | yeah, all we're using it for is putting up a slideshow at work | 09:57 |
| Belboz99 | we've got a big-honkin' 50" screen that we bought to give photo classes with (we're a camera store) | 09:58 |
| Belboz99 | so, I've been putting up a lot of my best photos in a slideshow format to show people what they expect with one of our DSLR's | 09:58 |
| Unksi | 50".. that sounds real nice :) | 09:59 |
| Belboz99 | yeah, it is :) | 10:02 |
| Belboz99 | so, is there a list of the biggest improvements expected for Ibex somewhere? | 10:02 |
| Unksi | https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/intrepid | 10:03 |
| Unksi | theres one | 10:03 |
| Belboz99 | thanks | 10:07 |
| Belboz99 | I'm just wondering, what's the biggest changes I'll either see or "feel", a lot of that stuff looks nice and all, but how will affect the end user? | 10:07 |
| Belboz99 | We've got a few machines running 8.04 at work, and a lot of my co-workers are having a hard time dealing with the UI primarily | 10:08 |
| Belboz99 | stuff like if you right click in the whitespace of a nautilus window it doesn't allow you to create a new folder, not unless the whitespace is below the list of items, which only happens on short lists | 10:09 |
| Belboz99 | also, it seems to be a lot harder than it should be to make windows shares that are both accessible and writable by other windows users | 10:11 |
| Belboz99 | it took me quite some time to get all the samba shares set up right, and even then, there's still one machine that's never been properly configured | 10:11 |

| lavish | Hi guys, I've already asked it yesterday, but I had no reply: - I have a backup so I'm not a fool - anyway, is it possible to downgrade from 8.10 to 8.04? | 13:04 |
| zniavre | i made this but two days after alpha 1 was out | 13:06 |
| zniavre | but right now it seems to be more complicated i think (too many downgrade) | 13:07 |
| JontheEchidna | I don't think it's possible to downgrade | 13:08 |
| IdleOne | lavish, downgrade is not possible. you can do a fresh install of 8.04 ( good thing you have backups ) | 13:31 |
| lavish | oky, I'll restore my backup, thanks :) | 13:32 |

| IdleOne | elkbuntu, yeah I didn't think about that | 13:46 |

| jrib | I only run development releases virtualized | 13:48 |
| elkbuntu | jrib, eeepc. toy. reinstallable | 13:49 |
| IdleOne | jrib, I did with the first 2 alpha's but it just is not the same as jumping in head first. so I move /home this way I have my backups | 13:50 |

| Redhammer | sorry to ask again but anybody else got problems with DNS server setting being " wiped off " all the time ? | 13:52 |

| bazhang | alpha 4 to be precise meta | 19:13 |
| meta | and... is it released? | 19:13 |
| bazhang | yesh :) | 19:13 |
| meta | because i apt-get upgraded my interpid install | 19:13 |
| bazhang | then you are up to date | 19:13 |
| Some_Person | How unstable is intrepid at this point? | 19:14 |
| bazhang | assuming your mirrors have synced of course | 19:14 |
| bazhang | read the /topic and decide for yourself Some_Person | 19:14 |
| meta | and not too much changes found | 19:14 |
| bazhang | the part about 'total system failure' in particular :) | 19:15 |
| meta | hmm then i try with us mirrors | 19:15 |

| meta | is this the kubuntu devel channel too? | 19:16 |
| bazhang | oops sorry | 19:16 |
| Some_Person | I'll probably get Intrepid installed at a late beta, or if there's something really bad at that point the RC | 19:16 |
| meta | at RC not too much, but interpid is now alpha, as bazhang said:) | 19:17 |
| meta | Release candidate and alpha are two very different things:) | 19:17 |
| Some_Person | I would never install an alpha | 19:17 |
| bazhang | I'll install at rc :) | 19:17 |
| meta | Then you must wait for interpid:) | 19:17 |
| Some_Person | I normally do try the alphas as a live cd | 19:17 |
