| Tukon | anyone notice usb keyboard not working in x in kubuntu ibex alpha6 | 00:43 |
| Tukon | ? | 00:43 |
| danbh_intrepid | they are out there, they are just having trouble responding | 00:45 |
| ethana2 | Ok, so I have a verified 8.10a6 CD, and a partition set aside for it.... | 01:02 |
| ethana2 | anything I should know? | 01:02 |
| ethana2 | Oh yeah, I want to use the GRUB on my 8.04.1 install, can it add itself to that without hijacking it? | 01:03 |
| RAOF | I don't know. | 01:03 |
| ethana2 | hmm | 01:03 |
| danbh_intrepid | not unless you have a separate /boot, AFAIK | 01:03 |
| RAOF | I do know that grub2 works surprisingly well at doing that, though :) | 01:03 |
| ethana2 | ohhhh, does hardy use grub 1.5? | 01:04 |
| * ethana2 scratches head | 01:05 | |
| ethana2 | oh that's right | 01:06 |
| ethana2 | Dell did give me a seperate /boot | 01:06 |
| bsnider | RAOF, when's the new blob going to be ready? | 01:09 |
| ethana2 | the new nVidia driver? | 01:09 |
| RAOF | I don't know? | 01:09 |
| bsnider | yes | 01:09 |
| * ethana2 goes to test new grub settings | 01:09 | |
| `Matir | For some reason, whenever I go to a flash-enabled website, I get a grey box where the flash applet would be... using nspluginwrapper and flashplugin-nonfree on amd64 | 01:11 |
| bsnider | you need ia32libs installed | 01:12 |
| ethana2 | Ok, quick confirmation-- the intrepid alpha 6 install process is safe, correct? Nothing nasty that's not in the release notes? | 01:19 |
| anmar | Hey guys. I am testing Alpha6 but want to test the ATI drivers. Any ideas where I can go about doing that. I did try apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx but nothing really happened | 01:19 |
| RAOF | ethana2: It's been tested, and no showstopper bugs exist (that aren't noted). | 01:19 |
| anmar | ethana2: hmm... it is called "Alpha" so be careful | 01:19 |
| ethana2 | Ok sweet, I'm doing this | 01:20 |
| RAOF | ethana2: That said, you might _find_ a showstopper bug. | 01:20 |
| ethana2 | I was on hardy alpha 3.. | 01:20 |
| anmar | RAOF: hehehe | 01:20 |
| ethana2 | heh | 01:20 |
| dmoerner | anmar: no fglrx in intrepid | 01:20 |
| ethana2 | I'm not entrusting it with the task of resizing any partitions, so whatever it does should be recoverable at least | 01:20 |
| * ethana2 kicks this pig | 01:20 | |
| anmar | dmoerner: is that for the alpha release or for the final release? | 01:21 |
| dmoerner | anmar: but 247376 | 01:21 |
| RAOF | anmar: Do we have a working fglrx driver yet? I didn't think it supported our xserver. | 01:21 |
| anmar | dmoerner: thanks. I will check that out. | 01:22 |
| dmoerner | 8.9 is no help, they are hoping catalyst 8.10 will be out before intrepid releases | 01:22 |
| anmar | RAOF: I thought the latest 8.9 catalyst drivers work with 2.6.27 driver... but I am not sure.. let me check phoronix. they had an article on that. | 01:22 |
| RAOF | anmar: Yeah, works with the 2.6.27 kernel. But not with xserver 1.5 | 01:22 |
| RAOF | The kernel part being easiest to fix - that's actually the only thing we _can_ fix, because it's built from source. | 01:23 |
| anmar | RAOF: ah... i see... they need to update catalyst to work with Xserver 1.5. | 01:25 |
| RAOF | Yes. Xserver 1.5 changed the video driver ABI. | 01:25 |
| bsnider | anmar, that's supposed to happen in about a month | 01:25 |
| anmar | RAOF: so as far as ATI 3D, I am stuck? or there is an open source 3D driver (i have ATI Radeon 3200) | 01:26 |
| anmar | bsnider: yeah.. there monthly release cycle. Cool. at least it is coming :) | 01:26 |
| RAOF | anmar: The default drivers should give you 2d, but there's no (released) open-source 3d driver for it. | 01:26 |
| bsnider | i thought xf86-video-ati would provide 3d for that card | 01:27 |
| dmoerner | not for the r600 serious | 01:27 |
| RAOF | 3200? I don't think so, not unless you're using some git snapshots of mesa and the driver. | 01:27 |
| dmoerner | s/serious/series | 01:27 |
| anmar | RAOF: Yeah.. that is what I figured. at least AMD is working on it in a consisten fashion | 01:27 |
| dmoerner | if you insist on using fglrx with intrepid you will have to go back to hardy's xserver: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Intrepid_Installation_Guide | 01:27 |
| anmar | dmoerner: I misss compiz but it is not that important of an issue. I think the desktop has more serious issues at the moment. | 01:28 |
| bsnider | isn't the radeon 3200 a really old card? the 8500 was like 6 years ago | 01:29 |
| RAOF | bsnider: No, you're confused by versioning. | 01:29 |
| bsnider | the new series isn't even called radeon anymore | 01:29 |
| bsnider | it's radeonhd | 01:29 |
| anmar | bsnider: the 3200 is an onboard video part of the AMD G780 chipset. I bought the board 4 months ago | 01:29 |
| bsnider | i c | 01:30 |
| RAOF | It went: 7xxx series, 8xxx series, 9xxx series, X200, X300, X600, X700, X1600, X2400, X3000, X4600 :) | 01:30 |
| dmoerner | actually they cut out the X too for newer radeon hds | 01:30 |
| anmar | RAOF: correct. Mine is X3200 | 01:30 |
| RAOF | Of course, the X3000 shouldn't be confused with _Intel's_ X3000 chip :) | 01:30 |
| anmar | RAOF: lspci shows "Radeon HD 3200" | 01:31 |
| bsnider | well in that case the radonhd driver should be providing 3d to that chip within 6-12 months or so | 01:31 |
| anmar | bsnider: I prefer the open source driver but it is not a biggie | 01:31 |
| RAOF | And the radoen driver does so now, at least with unreleased development code. | 01:31 |
| RAOF | s/oe/eo/ | 01:31 |
| anmar | RAOF: so I take it that using Kernel 2.6.27 is a final decision and will not be changing for the final release? | 01:32 |
| bsnider | it could change | 01:32 |
| bsnider | if there are too many showstoppers | 01:32 |
| RAOF | Open source driver development goes so much faster when (a) specs are released and (b) you pay a couple of devs to work on it full time. :/ | 01:32 |
| anmar | bsnider: hmmm... interesting | 01:32 |
| RAOF | anmar: It looks like it'll be 2.6.27 | 01:32 |
| bsnider | well, that's the case with the radeonhd driver, since it's being developed at novell | 01:33 |
| anmar | bsnider: oh... didn't know that. | 01:33 |
| RAOF | And the radeon driver, too. | 01:33 |
| anmar | ok. I will skip the ATI testing... One thing that confused me today with Alpha6 was the lack of empathy. I thougth it was going to replace pidgin. Is that still the case? | 01:33 |
| bsnider | with the ati cards, there are 3 drivers. the old ati driver, the new radeonhd driver, and fglrx | 01:34 |
| * RAOF still doesn't really know why there are two separate radeon drivers. | 01:34 | |
| _Zeus_ | whoa whoa, remove pidgin? | 01:34 |
| RAOF | anmar: No, it's not. It's easy to install empathy, but it's not replacing pidgeon (yet). | 01:34 |
| anmar | _Zeus_: I remember reading that in a blog. | 01:34 |
| anmar | RAOF: no worries.. was just wondering as I expected that switch. | 01:35 |
| bsnider | empathy needs about 75 packages to do what pidgin does | 01:35 |
| anmar | bsnider: true... but it is more of a framework than an app | 01:35 |
| RAOF | bsnider: True, but only because each backend is essentially a plugin. | 01:35 |
| RAOF | And 75 is a bit of an exaggeration :) | 01:35 |
| bsnider | show me how it's better than pidgiin | 01:36 |
| bsnider | it ain't | 01:36 |
| RAOF | It does video & voice :) | 01:36 |
| anmar | well the UI leaves a lot to be desired | 01:36 |
| anmar | but overall, I like the fact that it is a framework and not just an app or library | 01:37 |
| bsnider | there's lots of voip programs that do that | 01:37 |
| RAOF | It integrates better with gnome. Oh, and empathy-megaphone-applet rocks. | 01:37 |
| anmar | RAOF: you tried megaphone? | 01:37 |
| RAOF | But you're right. It's not sufficiently better than pidgin to swap at this point. I expect (a) it will improve the UI, and (b) other things will build on the framework, making it a compelling choice in a release or two. | 01:38 |
| bsnider | it's not better than kopete either | 01:39 |
| bsnider | actually kopete is in many ways better htan pidgin | 01:39 |
| bsnider | unfortunately it has an alarming tendency to kill gnome | 01:41 |
| _Zeus_ | empathy doesn't sound as good as pidgin | 01:41 |
| _Zeus_ | no plugins-blah | 01:41 |
| _Zeus_ | *= | 01:42 |
| _Zeus_ | the lack of new message marker alone is enough to stay in pidgin | 01:42 |
| RAOF | New message marker? | 01:42 |
| anmar | _Zeus_: There is no doubt that Pidgin is better that Empathy. However, i think empathy is going in the right direction. Having a framework available (telepathy) will be very helpful for GNOME and all of its applications. | 01:43 |
| bsnider | pidgin's updated msn support made it the best on gnome | 01:43 |
| _Zeus_ | RAOF: it puts a red line in chats where you stopped reading | 01:44 |
| Volkodav | anybody has skype not starting after recent update ? | 01:44 |
| _Zeus_ | so when you comd back, you can tell where to start from | 01:44 |
| _Zeus_ | Volkodav: x64? yes | 01:44 |
| Volkodav | same here on x64 | 01:44 |
| Volkodav | what's the deal ? | 01:44 |
| _Zeus_ | Volkodav: something about libQtDBus.so.4? | 01:44 |
| Volkodav | yeap | 01:45 |
| _Zeus_ | yeah, i got that too | 01:45 |
| _Zeus_ | Volkodav: you might want to try getlibs, although tthat failed for me | 01:45 |
| Volkodav | I still did not reboot yet | 01:46 |
| Volkodav | lemme reboot | 01:46 |
| derekS | hey all, i am having trouble with xorg. I did a fresh install on a system that had hardy. I save the xorg config (have had it for years). I tried to use it in intrepid and it didn't work. typically I can look for the "EE" in the log but the xorg log doesn't have it? xorg now boots into the ugly failsafe mode. any suggestions on what has changed? | 01:51 |
| anmar | derekS: what hardware do you have? | 01:51 |
| derekS | nvidia | 01:51 |
| ethana2 | Ok, when Intrepid asked whether or not to install a bootloader, I said 'no', because I want that to be handled from hardy | 01:52 |
| anmar | derekS: I have ATI and the driver (from ATI) doesn't work with the new server (version 1.5) as they changed things. It could be the same issue | 01:52 |
| ethana2 | ..of course, this leaves me to set it up manually | 01:53 |
| anmar | derekS: I assume you are using the open source driver. right? | 01:53 |
| derekS | anmar: how do i figure it out? i just want to see the logs... | 01:53 |
| derekS | anmar: no, the nvidia driver from restricted | 01:53 |
| anmar | derekS: hmmm.... it could be something similar to my issue. | 01:54 |
| derekS | anmar: how can i diagnose it? | 01:54 |
| anmar | derekS: I usually frequent this site for very helpful information (http://www.phoronix.com) | 01:54 |
| anmar | derekS: you can gall down to the command prompt and check out the logs In /var/log/Xorg.log (i think) | 01:55 |
| derekS | anmar: the xorg logs are overwritten... | 01:55 |
| derekS | with the failsafe xorg config | 01:55 |
| ethana2 | Ok, how do I set up a grub entry for my new 8.10 install? | 01:56 |
| RAOF | derekS: /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old will contain what you're after. | 01:56 |
| * ethana2 has mounted the intrepid partition and is scouting for kernels | 01:57 | |
| derekS | RAOF: thanks! let me check, i thought i looked there | 01:57 |
| Volkodav | still same shit _Zeus_ | 01:57 |
| _Zeus_ | Volkodav: yeah, i didn't figure it out | 01:58 |
| _Zeus_ | i downgraded to x86 when a6 went out | 01:58 |
| ethana2 | !ohmy | 01:58 |
| ubottu | Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 01:58 |
| * ethana2 has located the kernels, adding them to menu.lst... What is this UUID thing? | 01:59 | |
| _Zeus_ | eh | 01:59 |
| Volkodav | they must be a fix though | 01:59 |
| _Zeus_ | it's there so if your root gets renamed (eg, sda-sdb) you can still boot | 01:59 |
| _Zeus_ | Volkodav: i googled forever and none of the fixes worked | 01:59 |
| ethana2 | ahhh | 01:59 |
| ethana2 | _Zeus_: what would cause that to happen? | 02:00 |
| Volkodav | that sux0rz | 02:00 |
| _Zeus_ | ethana2: eh, i dunno. I just use the real name (/dev/sdan) | 02:00 |
| _Zeus_ | never had a problem | 02:00 |
| RAOF | ethana2: Plugging in a new harddrive, having a USB stick plugged in on boot, a kernel upgrade changing names (hda->sda, for example). | 02:00 |
| ethana2 | hmm, you know, I don't want to do this improperly | 02:08 |
| ethana2 | how do I find the UUID of a partition? | 02:08 |
| RAOF | ethana2: blkid, I believe. | 02:09 |
| RAOF | As in "blkid /dev/sda5" | 02:09 |
| ethana2 | i did a 'man blkid' | 02:09 |
| ethana2 | but thanks | 02:09 |
| DanaG | vol_id -u /dev/whatever works too. | 02:17 |
| DanaG | er, sudo it. | 02:17 |
| ethana2 | ok yeah, i can't get the usage for blkid right and i don't know why | 02:18 |
| * ethana2 does vol_id -u, checks man | 02:19 | |
| ethana2 | wait, root(hd0,5)? Where does 5 come into this? | 02:23 |
| RAOF | The bios. | 02:23 |
| DanaG | Grub numbering starts at zero. | 02:23 |
| DanaG | Kernel numbering starts at 1. | 02:24 |
| RAOF | And 'a', too. | 02:24 |
| ethana2 | ...so my hardy install is on its fifth kernel? | 02:25 |
| * ethana2 is confused now | 02:25 | |
| RAOF | No, it's on the 6th partition of the 1st harddrive. | 02:25 |
| ethana2 | oohhhhhh | 02:26 |
| ethana2 | Aha. So /dev/sda6 is (hd0,5), and /dev/sda3 would be (hd0,2) | 02:26 |
| RAOF | Yes (although there's actually no guarantee that sda is hd0) | 02:27 |
| ethana2 | pretty sure it is on my system | 02:27 |
| RAOF | Yeah, it probably is. | 02:27 |
| anmar | RAOF: bsnider: thanks for all the help guys. time to switch back to hardy :) | 02:29 |
| alksldkjfkasld | hey everyone | 02:30 |
| === alksldkjfkasld is now known as arooni | ||
| arooni | i am having problems getting dual mon working on intrepid daily. everything works great when i use nvidia twinview within the os. but when i save off to the xorg file | 02:31 |
| arooni | and restart; i get an error | 02:31 |
| keanu | hmm...I think there's a bug that could cause seizures in those with epilepsy - with firefox in full screen mode and another window in focus, alt+tabbing to the firefox window and only releasing the tab key (so the "alt window" stays open) causes a bunch of flickering | 02:39 |
| alksjdaf | i have intrepid with a p43 chipset and network wireless card that has a rtl-8185L chipset... card gets detected by ubuntu and i can *TRY* to connect to wireless networks... but with a wpa network even if i enter the password i cant login :( | 03:02 |
| papna | I'm trying to install Intrepid Alpha 6 on an old laptop of mine. When I try to boot up with the LiveCD to install or try Ubuntu, it does not work. I get to a terminal instead of where I am supposed to be. Can anyone help me? | 03:20 |
| papna | I tried `startx', which complains that `Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration' and `Fatal server error: no screens found giving up'. | 03:23 |
| papna | I was about to go playing with xorg.conf, but I gather that the operation of X has changed a bit to allow flexibility. | 03:24 |
| DanaG | argh... stupid Flash... just gave me a hard-lockup, somehow. | 04:30 |
| nalioth | flash is evil | 04:37 |
| DanaG | Yup. | 04:37 |
| teethdood | any reported issues with upgrading from 8.04? | 05:03 |
| === sourcode is now known as sourcode[0] | ||
| alksjdaf | rtl-8185l chipset wireless card is having a hard time remembering my wep key... everytime i login i have to authenticate..... though once i do it works fine | 05:58 |
| DanaG | I've had that with an Intel 2200 card, too. | 06:06 |
| alksjdaf | DanaG, do devs know about it | 06:12 |
| DanaG | Beats me. I fixed it, but I don't remember how. | 06:12 |
| DanaG | Oh yeah, for one thing, I made the network a "System Setting" -- so it should work even without X running. | 06:12 |
| DanaG | argh, damn flash just crashed in the MIDDLE of a video. | 06:13 |
| * DanaG hates Flash. | 06:13 | |
| badfish | help! | 06:21 |
| badfish | someone talk to me who isn't a bot | 06:21 |
| armornick | hey guys, will Intrepid have a customized install? (i.e. you can choose which programs to install) | 06:30 |
| usser_ | what version iwl3945 is in intrepid? | 06:48 |
| DanaG | 1.2.26ks | 06:49 |
| usser_ | cool, anybody had a weird problem when after returning from suspend iwl3945 driver would cause the keyboard to get stuck | 06:50 |
| jayde_drag0n | i'm hoping someone can help, the forums andf google results have not helped (ati graphics driver) installed and in use, all nvidia stuff... installed and in use.. yet i cannot get any more than 800 resolution.. and running sudo nvidia-xconfig just says "congrats its re-written.. with no results | 06:50 |
| * RAOF is saved from that problem by not having working suspend! | 06:51 | |
| usser_ | the symptoms are. upon returning from suspend keyboard works and as soon as network manager starts connecting to a wireless network it locks the keyboard | 06:51 |
| RAOF | jayde_drag0n: Do you really mean ati _and_ nvidia? | 06:51 |
| usser_ | toggling the wifi kill switch fixes it | 06:51 |
| usser_ | this is weird!! | 06:52 |
| usser_ | dmesg shows absolutely nothing | 06:53 |
| jayde_drag0n | RAOF: i mean when i goto system>administration>hardware drivers it allowed me to checkmark enable ati graphics thingys.. i did so... no result cannot change the resolution.. i followed all forum advice and installed all the nvidia stuff (it already was.. ran the x server settings and it told me to run sudo nvidia-xconfig.. i did.. it said it rewrote some xorg. file thingy.. but i still cannot make my screen smaller than 800 by wh | 06:54 |
| RAOF | jayde_drag0n: Well, that's guaranteed not to work. | 06:54 |
| RAOF | jayde_drag0n: You can't have both fglrx and nvidia drivers installed and expect either to work :) | 06:55 |
| DanaG | nvidia drivers also break Intel 3D. | 06:56 |
| RAOF | jayde_drag0n: So, you need to work out whether you have an ATi or nvidia graphics card. | 06:56 |
| DanaG | =þ | 06:56 |
| DanaG | So... on laptops with switchable GPUs, you have to choose one or the other. | 06:56 |
| RAOF | nvidia drivers break * | 06:56 |
| jayde_drag0n | RAOF: ati radeon | 06:57 |
| crdlb | jayde_drag0n: which model exactly? | 06:57 |
| jayde_drag0n | RAOF: not to mention that the nvidia drivers were already installed.. not something that I did | 06:57 |
| RAOF | So, the _first_ thing you need to do is to remove nvidia-glx-* | 06:57 |
| RAOF | There was a packaging bug where nvidia-glx was accidentally installed, yes. | 06:58 |
| DanaG | Don't you just love closed-source drivers that replace part of Xorg? | 06:58 |
| jayde_drag0n | RAOF: can i just use synaptic and untick them? or can i only untick some and have to leave others? | 06:58 |
| DanaG | ... and thus break everything else. | 06:58 |
| RAOF | jayde_drag0n: Yes. Just untick all of them. | 06:58 |
| jayde_drag0n | RAOF: okay hold i will do that and then come back to continue my instruction oh wise ubuntu guru | 06:59 |
| crdlb | RAOF: ouch, where was the dep added? | 06:59 |
| RAOF | crdlb: I forget. It was some time ago, too. | 06:59 |
| jayde_drag0n | RAOF: it wants to remove "linux restricted modules" when i unchecked everything that said nvidia.. continue anyway? | 07:01 |
| RAOF | Hm. I wonder what's taking that away. | 07:02 |
| DanaG | nvidia-common. | 07:02 |
| RAOF | Ah. Don't remove that, then. | 07:02 |
| jayde_drag0n | k | 07:02 |
| * DanaG goes off to try nouveau again... | 07:02 | |
| jayde_drag0n | RAOF: okay done.. now what | 07:04 |
| RAOF | So, now we work out what card you have. | 07:04 |
| RAOF | Actually, we don't need to do that at all. | 07:05 |
| RAOF | So, now we remove the fglrx drivers. | 07:05 |
| jayde_drag0n | RAOF: lol i was just about to question that.. okay.. lead the way what names am i looking for? | 07:06 |
| RAOF | xorg-driver-fglrx, I think. | 07:06 |
| jayde_drag0n | apt-get uninstall? | 07:06 |
| crdlb | RAOF: hah, I guess fglrx is still broken? | 07:07 |
| RAOF | jayde_drag0n: Indeed. | 07:07 |
| RAOF | crdlb: Yup. No Xserver 1.5 support for you! | 07:07 |
| DanaG | Hmm.... better than before, but not entirely better. | 07:07 |
| DanaG | Handy site: phoronix.com | 07:07 |
| jayde_drag0n | no thats not the right code | 07:07 |
| DanaG | I look there about once a week, or so. | 07:07 |
| jayde_drag0n | apt-get remove? | 07:07 |
| crdlb | jayde_drag0n: yes | 07:08 |
| jayde_drag0n | 10q | 07:08 |
| jayde_drag0n | RAOF: oka done | 07:08 |
| RAOF | Now, 'sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf ~/xorg.conf.backup'. | 07:09 |
| RAOF | Get rid of the old xorg.conf entirely, but keep a backup. | 07:09 |
| jayde_drag0n | k done | 07:09 |
| jayde_drag0n | well i ran that code.. it didn't do anything that i saw | 07:09 |
| RAOF | Now, log out, and I think everything should be peachy. | 07:09 |
| jayde_drag0n | don't i need to go back in and enable the ati driver again.. i checked and saw it was un-enabled | 07:10 |
| jayde_drag0n | or do that after i log out | 07:10 |
| RAOF | You don't do that at all, because it won't work. | 07:10 |
| jayde_drag0n | okay i'll be back and tell you the result | 07:11 |
| jayde_drag0n | RAOF: everything is still HUGE :-( | 07:13 |
| RAOF | jayde_drag0n: Would you kindly pastebin /var/log/Xorg.0.log? | 07:13 |
| jayde_drag0n | RAOF: can you give me the sudo code to make that come up? | 07:14 |
| RAOF | "sudo aptitude install pastebinit" | 07:14 |
| RAOF | Then "pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log" | 07:14 |
| jayde_drag0n | and that will give you the code from the log??? | 07:14 |
| RAOF | Yes | 07:14 |
| jayde_drag0n | nifty | 07:14 |
| RAOF | Or, rather, it will return a URL which you'll need to give to me. | 07:15 |
| jayde_drag0n | RAOF: pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 07:16 |
| jayde_drag0n | er | 07:16 |
| jayde_drag0n | http://pastebin.com/f2b39bcec | 07:16 |
| RAOF | Hm. Can you do the same thing for /var/log/Xorg.0.log.oldL | 07:18 |
| RAOF | Hm. Can you do the same thing for /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old? | 07:18 |
| jayde_drag0n | yah sorry went and smoked while you read it | 07:18 |
| jayde_drag0n | http://pastebin.com/f4650faa9 | 07:19 |
| RAOF | jayde_drag0n: Urgh. Can you (a) make sure that /etc/X11/xorg.conf doesn't exist, and (b) that xserver-xorg-video-ati is installed? | 07:20 |
| jayde_drag0n | RAOF: i can do the second but how do i do the first? | 07:21 |
| RAOF | ls /etc/X11 | 07:21 |
| jayde_drag0n | RAOF: i believe it does exist.. that gave a response | 07:22 |
| RAOF | Make sure that there isn't a "xorg.conf" file there. Or you can run "ls /etc/X11 | pastebinit -" to copy the output to a pastebin. | 07:22 |
| DanaG | ARgh, Ikeep getting random hard-lockups, perhaps from nouveau. | 07:22 |
| RAOF | jayde_drag0n: It will give output. You want to make sure that the output doesn't contain 'xorg.conf'. | 07:22 |
| jayde_drag0n | http://pastebin.com/f7ab097af | 07:22 |
| jayde_drag0n | the output does contain those words | 07:23 |
| RAOF | jayde_drag0n: Gah. 'sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf ~/xorg.conf.backup2' | 07:23 |
| jayde_drag0n | okay now make sure the other thingy is installed right? | 07:23 |
| RAOF | Yes. | 07:23 |
| jayde_drag0n | "already at its newest version | 07:24 |
| RAOF | Good. Now, can you make sure that "/etc/X11/xorg.conf" doesn't exist again? :) | 07:24 |
| jayde_drag0n | http://pastebin.com/f1f3dc0cf | 07:25 |
| RAOF | Excellent. | 07:25 |
| RAOF | Now, let's go for a restart. Logging off should work, but let's be sure. | 07:25 |
| jayde_drag0n | lol i was just about to ask that | 07:25 |
| jayde_drag0n | brb | 07:25 |
| jayde_drag0n | still huge.. no new resultion options | 07:29 |
| DanaG | Hmm, nouveau is still making Xorg take 10% to 20% CPU... but it's better than it was. | 07:30 |
| RAOF | Can you pastebin /var/log/Xorg.0.log and /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old again? | 07:30 |
| jayde_drag0n | RAOF: and also when i boot up .. like before (forgot to mention) i get "ubuntu is in low graphics mode... something something cannot detect correctly" | 07:30 |
| RAOF | jayde_drag0n: Right. In that case, just pastebin /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old again :) | 07:31 |
| jayde_drag0n | just put pastebinit in front of that line? | 07:31 |
| RAOF | Yeah. | 07:31 |
| jayde_drag0n | http://pastebin.com/f58258474 | 07:32 |
| RAOF | ARGH! Why is it using xorg.conf.failsafe?! | 07:32 |
| jayde_drag0n | RAOF: also i don't get the splash loading screen anymore .. the progess bar part.. it gives me lots of text.. and there is an error in "mounting local filesystems : no final newline in etc/fstab" | 07:33 |
| jayde_drag0n | RAOF: even tho it appears to have mounted everything just fine | 07:34 |
| RAOF | Right. So, something's gone wrong in your Xorg. | 07:34 |
| RAOF | Let's just reinstall all of Xorg! | 07:34 |
| DanaG | RAOF: try to look in /var/log/gdm -- sometimes GDM just gets screwed up. | 07:34 |
| jayde_drag0n | okay! lead on | 07:34 |
| DanaG | It'll get stuck in failsafe even when you fix the problem. | 07:34 |
| RAOF | sudo aptitude reinstall ~nxserver | 07:34 |
| jayde_drag0n | with the tilde? | 07:34 |
| DanaG | ~n ? | 07:34 |
| RAOF | Yes. | 07:34 |
| DanaG | what's that about? | 07:34 |
| crdlb | aptitude crack | 07:34 |
| DanaG | so THAT's how you give aptitude wildcards. | 07:35 |
| RAOF | ~n means "match based on package name" | 07:35 |
| RAOF | There are actually a bunch of match operators; ~n is just the one I use the most. | 07:35 |
| DanaG | I never managed to figure this out... if I use just ordinary wildcards... it rejects it as "matching multiple items" -- well, DUH, it's a WILDCARD! | 07:35 |
| jayde_drag0n | ooooOOOOooohhh nifty | 07:35 |
| DanaG | But thanks for that tilde -- it'll be way handy. | 07:35 |
| * DanaG ♥ aptitude. | 07:35 | |
| jayde_drag0n | okay done | 07:35 |
| RAOF | Really? That should have taken some time :) | 07:36 |
| DanaG | oh yeah, nouveau+apic=force == ouchie. | 07:36 |
| DanaG | s/+/ + / | 07:36 |
| DanaG | er, hpet=force | 07:36 |
| RAOF | jayde_drag0n: Now, let's check that xorg.conf doesn't exist _again_, then log out. | 07:36 |
| DanaG | Hmm... since when does a celeron support c-states? | 07:37 |
| jayde_drag0n | pastebin the var logs again? | 07:37 |
| RAOF | jayde_drag0n: Pastebin the "ls /etc/X11 | pastebinit -" | 07:38 |
| crdlb | doesn't gdm reuse the X server by default? | 07:38 |
| RAOF | crdlb: Nope, don't think so. | 07:38 |
| jayde_drag0n | http://pastebin.com/f1b1c8364 | 07:39 |
| RAOF | crdlb: I happily swap nvidia/nouveau by logging out. | 07:39 |
| RAOF | jayde_drag0n: Excellent. Let's play restart again! | 07:39 |
| crdlb | there's definitely an option for it, and I thought it was the default | 07:39 |
| jayde_drag0n | i have a dumb question tho | 07:39 |
| jayde_drag0n | if we don't want xorg.conf... why would we have installed xorg in the first place... second place | 07:39 |
| crdlb | lol | 07:40 |
| crdlb | because Xorg is somewhat important | 07:40 |
| RAOF | Xorg is the thing which does all the graphical stuf. | 07:40 |
| jayde_drag0n | but doesn't just having xorg install its config file? | 07:40 |
| RAOF | _All_ the graphical stuff is done by Xorg. | 07:40 |
| RAOF | It doesn't need xorg.conf any more. | 07:40 |
| teethdood | xorg.conf is the "old confusing" method | 07:40 |
| * DanaG goes off to S£33Þ. | 07:41 | |
| jayde_drag0n | ahhh okee.. brb again | 07:41 |
| DanaG | How do you pass options to nvidia driver without xorg.conf? | 07:41 |
| RAOF | You don't. | 07:41 |
| crdlb | RAOF: does failsafe in intrepid work differently than in hardy and < ? | 07:41 |
| crdlb | DanaG: "how do you use the nvidia driver without xorg.conf?" | 07:41 |
| DanaG | Then what about all these nifty options I commented here: | 07:41 |
| DanaG | Aah. | 07:41 |
| teethdood | 5 minutes til my upgrade -c -d forcing me to reboot. Hopefully I'll come back up | 07:41 |
| DanaG | Oh yeah, handy nvidia stuff: www.csc.calpoly.edu/~dgoyette/xorg.conf | 07:41 |
| DanaG | It doesn't have the sharedpixmaps and such tweaks nvidia recommends on the latest 177, though. | 07:42 |
| crdlb | RAOF: because, with the old failsafe, it tries multiple vesa modes, which means bye-bye logs if the first try isn't successful | 07:42 |
| RAOF | crdlb: Hm, maybe. | 07:43 |
| RAOF | Dunno. | 07:43 |
| DanaG | Oh hey, how do you decrease the horizontal icon spacing on nautilus desktop? | 07:44 |
| jayde_drag0n | RAOF: no and no... are you SURE i don't have to enable the ati driver? | 07:44 |
| RAOF | jayde_drag0n: Yes. I'm sure. | 07:44 |
| jayde_drag0n | k | 07:44 |
| RAOF | So, pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log again :/ | 07:45 |
| jayde_drag0n | http://pastebin.com/f48415d52 | 07:45 |
| crdlb | DanaG: by turning on use compact layout for the nautilus icon view monde? | 07:45 |
| crdlb | mode* | 07:45 |
| RAOF | DanaG: What was that about gdm? | 07:46 |
| DanaG | Look in /var/log/gdm... sometimes it puts a failsafe.log file there. | 07:46 |
| DanaG | Perhaps it's triggering on that? | 07:46 |
| RAOF | Wah? What happened to libdri? | 07:46 |
| RAOF | Why is libdri still broken? | 07:46 |
| elmargol | I'm wondering if there are usb stick images for intrepid? | 07:48 |
| RAOF | jayde_drag0n: Can you 'ls /var/log/gdm | pastebinit -'? | 07:49 |
| jayde_drag0n | http://pastebin.com/f22398ec2 | 07:49 |
| RAOF | jayde_drag0n: Can you pastebinit /var/log/gdm/failsafe.log | 07:50 |
| jayde_drag0n | and of course.. i can do anything you ask me to so long as directions are provided :-) | 07:50 |
| jayde_drag0n | http://pastebin.com/f332b38dc | 07:50 |
| RAOF | DanaG: Gah! Help! | 07:52 |
| RAOF | How does one deal with failsafe X? | 07:52 |
| DanaG | I have disabled it on my systems, because it's a royal pain. | 07:52 |
| RAOF | How do you do that? | 07:52 |
| DanaG | #this is a comment | 07:53 |
| DanaG | argh | 07:53 |
| DanaG | keyboard lag.... lost an entire chat line! | 07:53 |
| DanaG | you comment out the FailsafeXServer line in /etc/gdm/gdm.conf | 07:54 |
| DanaG | Try to just rm that failsafe log there, though. then restart GDM. | 07:54 |
| RAOF | jayde_drag0n: ^^^. Let's try that; sudo rm /var/log/gdm/failsafe.log | 07:54 |
| jayde_drag0n | k | 07:55 |
| jayde_drag0n | gdm = gnome desktop manager? | 07:55 |
| RAOF | Gnome display manager, I think. | 07:56 |
| jayde_drag0n | okay now reboot? | 07:56 |
| RAOF | Yeah, why not. | 07:56 |
| jayde_drag0n | lol allrighty.. sienot.. am so tired of things being huge.. i wish it could just be done thru force | 07:57 |
| jayde_drag0n | er side note | 07:57 |
| * DanaG hates the FailsafeXServer thing. | 07:57 | |
| DanaG | Oh yeah, another feature: http://https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kde-guidance/+bug/257809 | 07:58 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 257809 in kde-guidance "guidance-backends overwrites xorg.conf without confirmation or notification, if video card has changed since last boot" [Undecided,New] | 07:58 |
| DanaG | Good thing it's no longer a dependency of ubuntu-desktop. | 07:58 |
| DanaG | ... or rather, it was a dependency of displayconfig-gtk, which has been removed. | 07:58 |
| jayde_drag0n | *sigh* | 08:00 |
| jayde_drag0n | so .. dumb question again.. we can't use the restricted driver because it doesn't work in ibex? it was working in hardy | 08:01 |
| DanaG | Old card, or new card? | 08:01 |
| DanaG | Oh wait, ati, not nvidia, right? | 08:01 |
| jayde_drag0n | yes | 08:01 |
| DanaG | I don't remember which. | 08:01 |
| jayde_drag0n | ati | 08:01 |
| DanaG | I have the "nvidia to old" thing on my spare laptop I'm currently using. | 08:01 |
| jayde_drag0n | same card as i've had at least 2 years | 08:02 |
| DanaG | s/to/too/ -- agh, key lag. | 08:02 |
| DanaG | I haven't dealt with fglrx or radeon/radeonhd at all in... oh, since the 9800 Pro era. | 08:02 |
| DanaG | I'll be going back to ATI next time, though -- hopefully this or next month. | 08:02 |
| RAOF | jayde_drag0n: You can't use fglrx because it doesn't work in intrepid, yes. | 08:03 |
| jayde_drag0n | k | 08:03 |
| RAOF | And I think your card might no longer be supported by fglrx, anyway :) | 08:03 |
| DanaG | No X Server 1.4 / 1.5 / whatever support. | 08:03 |
| DanaG | What card? | 08:03 |
| elmargol | Do i still need the alternate cd to create an encrypted installation? | 08:03 |
| RAOF | elmargol: I believe so, ye.s | 08:03 |
| jayde_drag0n | and that means what to me? i have to reinstall hardy and never again ponder upgrading or i'll be stuck with a resolution on crack? | 08:04 |
| elmargol | can I suspend using a encrypted swap? :D | 08:05 |
| DanaG | What video card? | 08:05 |
| DanaG | The open-source drivers have gotten much better in recent times, I've read. | 08:05 |
| RAOF | elmargol: Yes. | 08:05 |
| RAOF | jayde_drag0n: You _should_ be able to use the free drivers. I can't quite work out why they're not working. | 08:06 |
| jayde_drag0n | i was trying to avoid having to turn everything off.. move stuff around.. find a flashlight... write numbers down.. reboot and look up the dang card in google | 08:06 |
| RAOF | In fact, it should _automatically_ just work for you. | 08:06 |
| RAOF | Yeah, I wouldnt' bother doing that. | 08:06 |
| jayde_drag0n | it _did_ work for me automatically.... in hardy | 08:06 |
| DanaG | lspci can help. | 08:06 |
| DanaG | or rather, lspci -nn | 08:06 |
| DanaG | (don't always need -v .) | 08:06 |
| jayde_drag0n | Radeon 9550 | 08:07 |
| jayde_drag0n | thank the gods for that command | 08:07 |
| RAOF | jayde_drag0n: Hm. Can you run "dpkg-divert --list * | pastebinit -"? | 08:07 |
| RAOF | I think the reason why things aren't working is that something's breaking your libdri, and the same something might be breaking your radeon drivers. | 08:08 |
| jayde_drag0n | ugh "KeyboardInterrupt caught." | 08:08 |
| * DanaG must go off to bed.... | 08:08 | |
| DanaG | Sat Sep 20 00:08:30 PDT 2008 | 08:08 |
| DanaG | ... yeah. | 08:08 |
| DanaG | Oh yeah, is nouveau faster with composite off, or with it on? | 08:08 |
| DanaG | And can it do xv without b0rked colors? | 08:09 |
| RAOF | It should! | 08:09 |
| jayde_drag0n | hey is this important "jayde@MASTER:~$ sudo apt-get install libdri | 08:09 |

| RAOF | No. It's a part of xorg. | 08:10 |
| jayde_drag0n | lol okay.. thought i'd try | 08:10 |
| RAOF | Have you pastebinned "dpkg-divert --list * | pastebinit -"? | 08:10 |
| jayde_drag0n | i said it wouldn't let me | 08:10 |
| jayde_drag0n | "KeyboardInterrupt caught." | 08:11 |
| RAOF | Hm. | 08:11 |
| RAOF | Can you try again? | 08:11 |
| DanaG | try without '*' | 08:11 |
| RAOF | Oh, cool. That works! | 08:11 |
| jayde_drag0n | http://pastebin.com/f4f498c66 | 08:11 |
| RAOF | You appear to still have xorg-driver-fglrx installed! | 08:12 |
| RAOF | Either that, or it left the diversion in place when you uninstalled it. | 08:12 |
| DanaG | The selected video_out device is incompatible with this codec. | 08:13 |
| DanaG | Try appending the scale filter to your filter list, | 08:13 |
| DanaG | e.g. -vf spp,scale instead of -vf spp. | 08:13 |
| DanaG | that's from mplayer. | 08:13 |
| jayde_drag0n | shortly it will NOT be installed | 08:13 |
| jayde_drag0n | done... no longer installed | 08:14 |
| jayde_drag0n | _completely_ removed | 08:14 |
| RAOF | Then, 'sudo aptitude reinstall ~nxserver`, then log out. | 08:14 |
| RAOF | I believe this will fix the world. | 08:14 |

| jayde_drag0n | the other 2 might be realy simple.. i just lack the knowledge | 08:20 |

| philip__ | ok so Ibex doesn't have KDE4.1, but I installed KDE4.1 in my Hardy. Upgrade borked KDE hence the error | 08:26 |
| philip__ | stupid question but | 08:30 |
| philip__ | how do I set the default to gnome instead of KDE, since KDE failed | 08:30 |
| philip__ | ok, modify /etc/X11/default-display-manager | 08:31 |
| rconan | horay my upgrade has finished... is there any reason I shouldn't restart immediately? | 08:35 |
| Lynoure | rconan: you are the best person to answer that, I guess. If you want, you can check various configuration files for existence/sanity first | 08:42 |
| rconan | well... it seems i am one of the lucky ones | 08:46 |
| rconan | apart from the RgbPath in my /etc/X11/xorg.conf I have had no issues | 08:47 |

| rconan | anyone used ubuntu with a Marvell 88SE6121? | 09:49 |

| Hobbsee | rconan: do you need to use ndiswrapper for that? | 09:50 |
| rconan | it's a storage controller so no | 09:51 |
| Hobbsee | oh, i guessed it was a wifi card. | 09:51 |
| rconan | there were clues (module name being pata_marvell and my referal to drives) | 09:52 |
| rconan | i guess i could have been more clear | 09:52 |
| Stevko | Hello. I today installed linux-image-2.6.27-3-generic (i was running linux-image-2.6.24-21-386 before) and I get error messages about uvesafb. It complained about missing v86d, so I installed that but some errors are still there. Since I do not believe I need uvesafb (I have an idea about what it does), how can I completely disable/remove it? | 09:53 |
| Stevko | I am going to test something (possible solution). I will come back (and read the log of what I missed). | 10:02 |

| Unksi | mattik: flash is broken at the moment, dunno about java as i dont use it | 11:47 |
| mattik | ok, thanks | 11:48 |

| Unksi | which browser? firefox? | 11:53 |
| badp | Yep. | 11:54 |
| badp | I'm using the non-free version of flash. | 11:54 |

| badp | I didn't touch anything. | 11:56 |
| badp | I'm using flashplugin-nonfree 10.0.1.218 | 11:57 |
| mattik | badp: What source I can use in 64 bit system for it? some row in sources.list? | 11:57 |

| s0u][ight | hi guys | 12:48 |
| Mez | Hmm..... Ibex... for some reason, gnome has stopped loading properly on login | 12:55 |
| Mez | I have to switch to a terminal and run export DISPLAY=:0; nohup gnome-panel & | 12:55 |
| Mez | any ideas how to fix that? | 12:55 |
| Pretto | Mez, put it on your .bashrc? | 13:00 |
| Mez | Pretto, /me rolls eyes | 13:00 |
| Mez | 1) I dont use bash 2) that wouldnt be loaded on a GRAPHICAL login anyways | 13:00 |
| Pretto | Mez, but .bashrc runs when you login, or not? | 13:01 |
| Pretto | Mez, even in a GRAPHICAL environment | 13:01 |
| Mez | Pretto, no... | 13:01 |
| Mez | why would it? .bashrc runs when BASH runs | 13:01 |
| Pretto | Mez, i think that you have a graphical shell over a text shell | 13:02 |
| Pretto | Mez, so, bash will run | 13:03 |
| Mez | Pretto, it shouldn't. | 13:03 |
| Mez | unless I ran an xterm | 13:03 |
| Mez | secondly.. | 13:03 |
| Mez | I dont use bash | 13:03 |
| Pretto | Mez, but you have the login window, the problem is after login? | 13:05 |
| * Mez headdesks repeatedly | 13:05 | |
| Mez | Pretto, yes. I can login. However, it seems that the gnome-session manager isn't loading up gnome-panel like it should do. | 13:06 |
| s0u][ight | 2.6.27 is still rc : will it be stable enough before intrepids final release has taken place? | 13:07 |
| Pretto | Mez, just to test, it works if you load it in the gnome-session? | 13:10 |
| Mez | Pretto, at the moment, i dont care to restart X to try. | 13:11 |
| Mez | I'd rather an answer off of someeone who knows what's going on | 13:11 |
| Pretto | Mez, so, put the command in the gnome-session until you find a better solution | 13:11 |
| Pretto | Mez, you did a clean install? or upgraded? | 13:12 |
| Mez | upgraded... as always... however, this happened without any changes since the last time it worked | 13:13 |
| Mez | http://rafb.net/p/7LzEGw57.html <-- I think I found the issue | 13:16 |
| * Pretto will look at it | 13:17 | |
| Pretto | Mez, metacity? | 13:17 |
| Mez | yeah, it then goes on to configure gnome-session-manager | 13:18 |
| Pretto | hummmm... Mez, so make a backup of .metacity and take it off | 13:18 |
| * Mez headdesks | 13:19 | |
| Mez | or... let it configure it and then it should work ? | 13:19 |
| Pretto | do the login again, and let's see if its ok | 13:19 |
| Pretto | Mez, yes | 13:19 |

| afief | is there any chance the ubuntu folks will stop shipping a mostly-useless ffmpeg? | 13:56 |
| TheImp | afief: no because of licencing issues | 14:01 |
| TheImp | you can get a full ffmpeg via medibuntu | 14:01 |
| TheImp | blame your gov ... | 14:02 |
| afief | TheImp, you mean patents? I'm not aware of any "license" for ffmpeg stuff | 14:02 |
| Mez | afief, oh... mostly useless ffmpeg.. | 14:07 |
| * Mez headdesks | 14:07 | |
| Mez | afief, would that be one that freezes when trying to decode DVB-T ? | 14:07 |
| Mez | cause that might have been what the issue was last night | 14:08 |
| afief | Mez, I mean the ffmpeg without the ability to encode mpeg4 video streams | 14:08 |
| Mez | oh... :( | 14:08 |
| * Mez had major issues last night while trying to see if a DVB USB stick would work with ubuntu | 14:09 | |
| Mez | managed to get it to scan... and zap... but mplayer stuck when trying to watch it (demux_open) | 14:09 |
| Mez | I assumed it was the demux) | 14:09 |
| afief | Mez, no idea, my needs are more simple I guess: "simply" encode some stuff to mpeg4... well it's not as easy as it sounds, but with the ffmpeg that ships with ubuntu it's impossible | 14:10 |
| Mez | !medibuntu | afief | 14:11 |
| ubottu | afief: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 14:11 |
| afief | meh... if patents are legal reasons I wonder how lame and other stuff made it into the repository(not to mention that there is a patent even on the progressbar) | 14:12 |

| ethana2 | Ok, my new a6 install isn't booting, grub says bad file or directory or something | 16:43 |
| ethana2 | it was a manual install, so the problem is most likely my fault | 16:43 |

| ethana2 | http://pastebin.com/f23466de8 | 16:45 |
| * ethana2 hugs pastebinit -i | 16:45 | |
| ethana2 | I did it manually because I wanted grub to still be controlled only by hardy | 16:47 |
| ethana2 | I can't see what I did wrong... | 16:49 |
| teethdood | e\ectro_: modify /etc/X11/default-manager | 16:49 |
| ethana2 | Do I just have a corrupt kernel or something? | 16:49 |
| ethana2 | ok, that directory there that points to the kernel-- that all happens after grub goes into the indicated partition, correct? | 16:50 |
| void^ | assuming hd0,2 is correct | 16:53 |
| ethana2 | I have one hard drive... intrepid is /dev/sda3 | 16:55 |
| ethana2 | so hd0, partition 3 - 1 | 16:56 |
| ethana2 | do sda$ and (hd0,$) numbers correspond? | 16:57 |
| ethana2 | I know the whole count from 1 or 0 thing, but i'm not making false assumptions am I? | 16:57 |
| void^ | sda3 -> 0,2 is correct | 16:58 |
| ethana2 | ok | 16:58 |
| * ethana2 strokes beard | 16:58 | |
| ethana2 | I don't know what to think of this | 16:59 |
| ethana2 | ohhhhhh | 16:59 |
| ethana2 | what the | 16:59 |
| ethana2 | there's a vmlinuz and initrd right in / | 17:00 |
| ethana2 | I bet this has to do with the one change they made to keep grub cleaner | 17:00 |
| * ethana2 changes data to use those | 17:00 | |
| * ethana2 tries | 17:02 | |
| teethdood | ibex sure feels a lot more snappier than hardy | 17:02 |
| teethdood | hardy is too hard | 17:03 |

| ethana2 | You know, when someone's installing intrepid and they say not to install a bootloader | 17:12 |
| ethana2 | maybe they still want to be able to use the OS | 17:12 |
| ethana2 | ...they just don't want their current bootloader jacked | 17:12 |
| ethana2 | I should have had an option "Add OS to current bootloader" | 17:13 |

| tanath | how do i get music-applet to work with amarok? the amarok plugin says there's no kdecore module | 17:32 |
| hyper_ch | tanath: you have kdecore installed? | 17:32 |
| tanath | hyper_ch, the only thing that came up in search was python-kde4. i installed it, but that didn't help | 17:33 |
| hyper_ch | do you konw the exact filename? | 17:33 |
| tanath | hyper_ch, it just says 'kdecore' | 17:33 |
| tanath | "No module named kdecore" | 17:34 |
| hyper_ch | no clue | 17:35 |
| tanath | :-/ | 17:35 |
| hyper_ch | tanath: start amarok from the shell and the load it and then look at the output whether you can get an exact filename | 17:36 |
| tanath | nope | 17:37 |
| tanath | gives some basic info, then detaches from terminal | 17:37 |
| tanath | no mention of it | 17:37 |
| hyper_ch | tanath: how about asking in #amarok ? | 17:37 |
| tanath | /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/PyKDE4/kdecore.so | 17:38 |
| tanath | that might be it | 17:38 |
| tanath | from ' dpkg -L python-kde4|grep -i core' | 17:38 |
| hyper_ch | have a try :) | 17:38 |
| tanath | hyper_ch, try what? | 17:39 |
| hyper_ch | at that package there | 17:39 |
| tanath | configure button is disabled until the plugin is enabled | 17:39 |
| tanath | sorry? | 17:39 |
| tanath | that's the package i installed which was the only mentioned when searching kdecore... it didn't help | 17:40 |
| hyper_ch | then you might want to ask in #amarok | 17:41 |
| tanath | well, not sure how much help they'd be. amarok works fine. it's the applet that doesn't work :P | 17:42 |
| hyper_ch | or wait, amarok 1.4 is based on kde 3x... maybe you need to get the according python lib for that | 17:42 |
| * ethana2 uses neon | 17:43 | |
| ethana2 | i use rhythmbox when i want system integration though | 17:43 |
| tanath | i dislike rhythmbox | 17:43 |
| tanath | i had a script installed which made amarok work with my media keys, but upgrading to 8.10 broke it | 17:44 |
| ethana2 | Should I just reinstall and have intrepid take over my bootloader? | 17:45 |

| XVampireX | yeah | 18:11 |
| max_ | Well, I'm going to go reinstall... second time today. | 18:12 |
| XVampireX | Well my idea was.... to create 1 DVD that lets you install whatever package, kubuntu, ubuntu, xubuntu, edubuntu | 18:12 |
| XVampireX | something like opensuse... | 18:12 |
| lenios | isn't there already a dvd? | 18:13 |

| mnemo | _tommyd: why cant you login? wrong password, cant type letters in username box or what? | 19:26 |
| _tommyd | the inputbox won't show any letters I type | 19:26 |
| mnemo | _tommyd: laptop? | 19:27 |
| _tommyd | yes | 19:27 |
| _tommyd | as said special keys and alt+f1 etc works fine | 19:27 |
| mnemo | if you switch to another virtual console, can you type normally in there? | 19:27 |
| _tommyd | yes | 19:27 |
| mnemo | strange, sry I've never heard anything like it before.. maybe someone else on this channel knows | 19:28 |
| _tommyd | I then tried with a usb keyboard and same result, inputbox stays clear but can switch consoles | 19:29 |
| _tommyd | similar to this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/254840 except no problems with the mouse | 19:30 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 254840 in xorg-server "[intrepid] mouse and keyboard stop working under gdm and gnome" [Medium,Triaged] | 19:30 |
| _tommyd | ok so I have to add inputdevice under ServerLayout in xorg.conf will try that, should have read it more carefully :/ | 19:35 |
| teethdood | is there a way to remove all packages that were installed at a specific time? (ie I installed mythtv, which installed 30 other packages) | 19:40 |
| astraljava | teethdood: If you used aptitude, `sudo aptitude remove mythtv` should remove the other that came along as they're not used by any other package. | 19:41 |
| astraljava | `mythtv`, or whatever it is called. | 19:41 |
| teethdood | astraljava: that was nice. Now only if synaptic has the same capability | 19:43 |
| astraljava | teethdood: aptitude really is a superior dpkg front-end. :) | 19:44 |
| teethdood | I thought xorg.conf is not needed anymore | 19:45 |
| iddo | how can i prevent seahorse from revealing my empathy gtalk password? | 19:55 |
| kevin06_ | hi | 20:17 |
| kevin06_ | the fglrx works with xorg 7.4? | 20:18 |
| user_ | hi, i am running a6 in virtualbox 2.0.2, but cannot change the screen resolution to something higher then 800x600. someone has a hint to solve this? (i wouldnt want to delete a6 and report no further issues, because of this usability issue..) | 20:19 |
| Unksi | 202931 < mnemo> i just upgraded to intrepid alpha and now X.org wont start because it says "ABI major version does not match xserver version" (this is for the ATI fglrx driver) .... how can I workaround this issue? | 20:20 |
| Unksi | kevin06_: according to that, i would guess that no | 20:21 |
| bsnider | kevin06_, wait a month or so and it probably will | 20:23 |
| kevin06_ | ok thanks | 20:24 |
| DBO | I know I must be starting to sound like a broken record... but... suspend help? My laptop will only suspend one time then it wont resume from a second suspend | 20:32 |
| DBO | help? | 20:32 |
| Lynoure | Have you tried the suspend troubleshooting instructions yet? | 20:35 |
| bsnider | does it suspend when you put the lid down? | 20:35 |
| Lynoure | I have not tried suspend on ibex, but I have sweated over it in other versions... | 20:35 |
| DBO | bsnider, i disabled that | 20:36 |
| DBO | Lynoure, i tried everything I could yeah | 20:36 |
| bsnider | but it would work if you hadn't diasbled it? | 20:36 |
| DBO | which instruction do you want me to look at in particular | 20:36 |
| DBO | bsnider, the first time | 20:36 |
| DBO | the second time it fails to resume | 20:36 |
| DBO | it will suspend once | 20:36 |
| Lynoure | DBO: So you have already figured out which point it fails at? | 20:36 |
| DBO | and only once | 20:36 |
| Lynoure | DBO: Seems I cannot find them on the wiki anymore. | 20:37 |
| DBO | well there are a multitude of issues, I have worked through several | 20:37 |
| DBO | at first it would not suspend at all | 20:37 |
| DBO | then I disabled the ath5k driver and replaced it with ndiswrapper. Now it will suspend once. I also had to manually enabled some quirks to get video back | 20:37 |
| DBO | but after the second suspend its still just hard locked. I get video, I can see my mouse, but I can't move it. Caps lock does nothing, I can't switch VT's | 20:38 |
| Lynoure | you could try blacklisting the video and wlan drivers for the suspend | 20:38 |
| bsnider | did all this work in hardy? | 20:38 |
| DBO | Lynoure, I removed them completes and tried suspending from a vt | 20:38 |
| DBO | and suspending using the VESA driver | 20:38 |
| DBO | bsnider, I can't boot hardy | 20:39 |
| DBO | I have a thinkpad T500 | 20:39 |
| DBO | Intrepid is the only distro "out" right now capable of booting my hardware | 20:39 |
| bsnider | fascinating | 20:40 |
| bsnider | is that an old machine or a new one? | 20:40 |
| SwedeMike | brand new | 20:40 |
| SwedeMike | reviews are from august 2008, so it's most likely fresh release | 20:41 |
| DBO | yeah | 20:41 |
| DBO | just came out | 20:41 |
| bsnider | is everything intel? | 20:42 |
| SwedeMike | bsnider: no, ati gfx chip. Google it, there are plenty of specs in reviews | 20:42 |
| DBO | no | 20:43 |
| DBO | I dont have the ATI chip | 20:43 |
| DBO | i have intel only | 20:43 |
| DBO | there is a model just with the intel chip | 20:43 |
| DBO | everything else is intel except the wireless which is atheros | 20:44 |
| DBO | but even rmmod'ing its module before suspend does not fix it | 20:44 |
| bsnider | it will probably work much better as of the beta release | 20:44 |
| DBO | why do you say that? | 20:44 |
| bsnider | atheros isn't properly supported until then | 20:44 |
| DBO | well like I said, I have removed the module all together | 20:45 |
| DBO | that doesn't make a difference on suspend | 20:45 |
| bsnider | there's lots of people having suspend/resume problems if you look in the forums | 20:45 |
| bsnider | i'm sure it will be fixed | 20:45 |
| DBO | is there any way I can help ensure that | 20:47 |
| DBO | my bug report is already the number one hit for "thinkpad t500 suspend" | 20:47 |
| bsnider | unless you're keith packard, probably not | 20:47 |
| DBO | alright, then you leave me no choice but to file the most hilarious bug report I can in hopes someone diggs it =P | 20:48 |
| Lynoure | DBO: so, what part of resume it gets stuck at, currenly? | 20:50 |
| DBO | figuring that out is somewhat difficult. Doing the system clock think (whatever thats called) generates no hash matches | 20:51 |
| DBO | but it gets to the point of actually showing my mouse | 20:51 |
| DBO | on a black display | 20:51 |
| DBO | its backlit | 20:51 |
| DBO | and there is some hard drive activity before that point | 20:51 |
| DBO | but then it freezes completely | 20:51 |
| Lynoure | DBO: if it gets to any resume scripts, you can find out where by touch somewhere/resumescriptname | 20:51 |
| Lynoure | DBO: add that to the resume script, then after failed resume see which one was the last one touched (remember to clean up before next attempt) | 20:52 |
| DBO | Lynoure, I was under the impression that wont actually get commited to the hard drive until after suspend completes | 20:53 |
| DBO | but /var/log/pm.suspend.log shows nothing from any resume scripts | 20:53 |
| Lynoure | DBO: if that's the case, some things have changed... oh well | 20:54 |
| DBO | Lynoure, dont get me wrong | 20:54 |
| DBO | I am going to try it | 20:54 |
| DBO | whatever it takes to help | 20:54 |
| === echidnaman is now known as JontheEchidna | ||
| histo | Is there a way to search for specific packages at packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/ | 22:32 |
| histo | nvm I found it | 22:33 |
| Jordan_U | histo: http://packages.ubuntu.com/ choose Intrepid as the distro in the search | 22:33 |
| histo | Yeah just found that ty jordan | 22:34 |
| histo | Ooh found the same bug persists from several versions of ubuntu. | 22:41 |
| histo | Is anyone else able to confirm? | 22:41 |
| histo | Well perhaps I can explain the problem and someone might be able to tell me which package to file the bug under. | 22:42 |
| histo | If you install tightvncserver and tightvnc-java. Then you start a tightvncserver. If you try to connect to that server via a java webrowser it kills the vnc server. | 22:43 |
| histo | I can kill it everytime with amd64 | 22:43 |
| histo | So is it a problem ith tightvnc-java or a problem with tightvncserver handling the connection? | 22:44 |
| histo | You can use tightvncserver with a normal vnc client and it works fine. | 22:44 |
| histo | But soon as you try the java connection kablooie. This happens it gutsy also. | 22:44 |
| EvilDaemon | Alright, so in Hardy, network was found in System > Administration > Network | 23:02 |
| EvilDaemon | Where is it in Ibex Alpha 6? | 23:02 |
| SwedeMike | been wondering the same thing, but you can run it manually from shell | 23:04 |
| EvilDaemon | can you install a GUI client? | 23:04 |
| SwedeMike | gnome-network-preferences | 23:04 |
| SwedeMike | just start that, it's the same application, it's just not in the menu | 23:05 |
| terminator_ | Anybody running a GeForce FX5200 with the 173 driver? | 23:12 |
| === EvilDaemon is now known as cnn | ||
| === cnn is now known as http | ||

| EvilDaemon | Are there any guides to get Skype on Alpha 6? | 23:54 |
| JontheEchidna | EvilDaemon: just download the .deb from skype.com and run it with gdebi | 23:56 |
| EvilDaemon | Ok, thanks. | 23:58 |
