rgreeningno, it wasn't. I need some bzr tutoring (I know how to get, but "doing" things properly may be a diff story). Know any good ref doc?15:21
Riddellbazaar website probably has some15:22
ScottKrgreening: Do you know svn?15:23

rgreeningRiddell: ok. I'll have a look.15:24

ubottuLaunchpad bug 285626 in ubiquity "blank window on livecd with "Install" boot option" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/28562615:26
davmor2Riddell: is this the wubi thing?15:40
davmor2Riddell: I've had a thought about this.  Do you have intel hw gfx wise on that?15:43
Riddelldavmor2: yes15:44
Riddelldavmor2: wubi and also the "Install" option on the desktop CD (ubiquity without the desktop)15:45
davmor2I tried the install on 2 nvidia based machine I'm now going to try it on my intel based machine and if that plays up could it be that kwin is turning composite on but not using it correctly?15:46
sebasRiddell: I got exa + composite + kwin working with the free radeon driver :-)15:46
sebasAnd it works with fglrx as well15:46
davmor2Riddell: ^15:47
sebas_Sime: ping (tomorrow at my place?)15:50
sebasI'm trying to build pykde4 now15:51
davmor2Riddell: Does that sound at all feasible?15:57
Riddelldavmor2: it does15:59
Riddelldosen't need a full install run, just starting the Install only option15:59
davmor2Riddell: I just need to get a couple of log files for asac and then I'll do it about 5-10mins16:00
davmor2Riddell: install only is basically what wubi runs too so that would explain the issue there to if this is the case :)16:04
Riddell yes I'm pretty sure they're the same thnig16:05
davmor2Riddell: have you tried on 32bit and 64bit ?16:10
Riddelldavmor2: yes, fails on both for me16:11
davmor2okay cool just checking need to reburn live about 2 mins16:11
davmor21min16:11
davmor2booting now16:13
davmor2Riddell: Black with the white cross same as oem16:16
davmor2re-trying on nvidia now16:16
Riddellso it likely is the kwin crash and only happens on some places16:19
Riddellall very strange, kwin doesn't normally crash for me16:19
RiddellI wonder what the difference is that makes kwin only sometimes crash16:19
Riddellit would help if I had this backtrace, anyone know how to use apport-retrace?16:20
Riddellpossibly it happens on all graphics cards where compositing gets turned on, it probably isn't turned on for nvidia16:21
davmor2Riddell: shows up on nvidia16:21
Riddelldavmor2: any kwin crash in /var/crash ?16:21
davmor2still a black background but it shows up :)16:21
davmor2Riddell: 2 ticks I'll drop it back into the intel box16:22
AlatiusUsing Kubuntu 8.10 (64bit). I get only very few hits when I search for packages in Adept. For example, "firefox" gives 0 packages found, which obviously is not correct. All software sources are ticked. Any clues?16:28
RiddellAlatius: try running /usr/sbin/update-apt-xapian-index ?16:28
davmor2bingo16:28
Riddelldavmor2: hmm?16:28
davmor2_usr_bin_kwin.999.crash16:29
Riddellwhich /shouldn't/ matter since kwin does recover, but seems like the most likely candidate16:29
AlatiusRiddell: Yay, that solved it. Much better. Thanks! ^^16:31
davmor2Riddell: I've bagged a copy for now http://www.davmor2.co.uk/_usr_bin_kwin.999.crash16:34
davmor2Riddell: I'll try and use apport-cli now to report it but not sure how it will work but we'll see16:35
Riddelldavmor2: getting apport-retrace just to decode it would probably be the way to go but I can't work out how to use it16:36
davmor2Riddell: you could try just double clicking it on your desktop then you should be able to read the report cause you have kwin16:38
rgreeningDoes anyone else think that bookmark editing in konqueror blows chunks16:43
Riddelldavmor2: doesn't show me the backtrace16:43
davmor2Riddell: 2 ticks I think it's goning to try and use m3w or w3m16:44
