DanaGOoh, finch uses the unicode ☎ for status.00:19
calctytso is here at UDS telling us about ext4 :-)01:17
=== Daisuke-Ido is now known as Daisuke_Ido
calcnow talking about the bugs still in ext401:25
RAOFcalc: Oooh.  Any doosies?01:29
calcRAOF: some data corruption issues in some cases with sparse files like with bittorrent, bdb, etc01:30
calcbut they are working on them01:30
RAOFSounds fun!  Every one loves data corruption in their fs :)01:31
calcyea, heh01:31
crimsunRAOF: what?  no reiserfs on your woody box?01:33
calche also does not recommend mounting ext3 with ext4 driver01:34
calcsince its not tested well yet01:34
* RAOF doesn't /have/ a woody box.01:36
RAOFMarvelous!01:37
calcbut it appears that ubuntu will allow installing with ext4 in jaunty but not the default01:38
calcso anyone who wants to play with fire can get burned ;-)01:38
RAOFNifty.  It's already possible to format and mount ext4, but a little installer love will let more people get burned!01:41
calcyea :)01:42
calcthere is actually better support for SSD in ext4 also01:44
calcit tells the SSD that the block is no longer used so it can reuse it for wear leveling01:45
=== nhandler_ is now known as nhandler
karlpwait not supported? as in i can't ask for help in this channel?04:42
karlpor as in not supported for #ubuntu ? (which is obvious)04:42
karlpwhen i start kdm, my usb {keyboard and mouse} are completely unusable04:51
karlpbut on the console, it's perfectly fine04:52
karlpi'll updating+upgrading again04:52
RAOFkarlp: Sounds like an X input-hotplug issue04:55
karlpRAOF: how would i fix it? it worked fine with intrepid and i, out of the blue, decided to update to jaunty, against better judgement04:56
RAOFIt'd be useful to see your /var/log/Xorg.0.log04:57
RAOFAnd your xorg.conf while you're at it.04:57
karlpgrep '(EE)' /var/log/Xorg.0.log outputs just: (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.04:58
karlpah, but the WW is where it's out04:58
karlpfor some reason it disables it04:58
karlpAllowEmptyInput is on04:59
karlpserverflags section... going to change it to false05:02
karlprather add it to say it's false05:02
karlpi didn't add that in but i suspect the update must have05:02
RAOFThe actual files would be useful :)05:03
RAOFpastebinit can be your friend.05:04
karlpyeah, well i sort of half-asked the question. i'm going to try to figure it out first before i bother you further05:05
karlpi just expected it's a package problem and didn't even think it could be a configuration file issue05:05
karlpi guess technically the configuration file is part of the package....05:05
RAOFIsh.  It's a bit tricky.05:05
karlpman, you ubuntu devs are insane. working non-stop... i just updated less than 5 minutes ago and it's already got more than a few megabytes worth of updates grabbed05:07
karlpfixed it :D05:09
karlplater05:09
histothink flash 64bit will maek it in to juanty?07:03
rwwhisto: it's in jaunty. It's just broken right now due to a bug involving a missing copy of libuuid107:04
histoahh Haven't yet installed jaunty maybe on a virtual machine for testing .07:04
anderskNo, that's 32-bit flash with nspluginwrapper that's broken by the libuuid1 bug.07:04
anderskAdobe released a native 64-bit plugin that hasn't made it into Jaunty yet.07:04
rwwandersk: oh, really? huh, i need to keep up better with my non-free stuff07:05
anderskhttp://blogs.adobe.com/penguin.swf/2008/11/now_supporting_16_exabytes.html07:06
rwwheh, interestinfg07:08
stdinit's pre-release, so it won't be in jaunty until it's officially released07:10
BUGabundo_workI know this is stupid to ask08:30
BUGabundo_workbut did any one here installed todays KDEPIM updates?08:30
BUGabundo_workhumm even with a Nvidia Compiz efects seem slow and dragging!09:11
lemonade_which effects?09:16

Le-Chuck_ITA1Hi there. I am testing jaunty and I noticed that the upgraded xorg and kernel are much slower than the ones provided on the cds. Is this considered normal or is it a bug? Moreover, I can use the previous kernel but how can I revert to the xorg that is provided on the cds'16:06
Le-Chuck_ITA1?16:06
BUGabundo_workhi Le-Chuck_ITA116:13
BUGabundo_workI mention exactly that today here in the #16:13
Le-Chuck_ITA1very good so it's not only my problem16:13
BUGabundo_workmy guess: it aint finned tuned yet16:13
Le-Chuck_ITA1is it fundamentally newer than the xorg on the cds?16:13
Le-Chuck_ITA1cd16:14
Le-Chuck_ITA1A question to everybody: is it actually feasible to install some snapshotting system (LVM snapshots???) and then just try to upgrade, and revert if something goes wrong? What are the practical problems?16:15
BUGabundo_workI don't understand your question16:15
BUGabundo_workLe-Chuck_ITA1: most of the people here are at UDS-Jaunty16:15
Le-Chuck_ITA1BUGabundo_work: it seems to me that the version of xorg on the jaunty alpha1 image is faster than the one16:15
BUGabundo_workso don't count on getting much atteion16:16
Le-Chuck_ITA1ok so the simplest question is: "is the version on the installation cd faster for you?"16:16
BUGabundo_workdo know16:16
BUGabundo_workI've been using jaunty eversince the tool chains were open16:16
Le-Chuck_ITA1yes and was it faster then?16:16
IdleOneLe-Chuck_ITA1, best thing would be to run new "snapshots" in VM and see if it works for you but I am not sure that is what you want16:17
Le-Chuck_ITA1IdleOne: hmm I would not test hardware drivers then16:18
Le-Chuck_ITA1well, I will reinstall hardy for now :)16:24
BUGabundo_workwhy not ibex?16:27
Le-Chuck_ITA1BUGabundo_work: actually I wanted to say intrepid, I already have hardy which is the latest version that works well16:28
Le-Chuck_ITA1intrepid was my "beta testing"16:28
BUGabundo_workibex is the latest stable version16:28
BUGabundo_workjaunty is development16:28
Le-Chuck_ITA1Yes I know, but it does not work so well for me in some respect :)16:28
BUGabundo_workfile bugs for it!16:28
BUGabundo_worklet the devs know about them16:28
Le-Chuck_ITA1BUGabundo_work: I have a hundred of open bugs :P16:29
Le-Chuck_ITA1but if they aren't closed I can't work well, you know. In any case I am using ibex on two other machines where it's just working fine16:29
* Le-Chuck_ITA1 thinks usb-creator is a great tool16:30
Le-Chuck_ITA1BUGabundo_work: do you remember if the system was faster when you started using jaunty?16:33
BUGabundo_workhumm16:33
BUGabundo_workback then the nvidia driver didn't work16:33
BUGabundo_workso I can compare my experince with Compiz16:34
BUGabundo_workwhich is the single thing that I find slower!16:34
Le-Chuck_ITA1BUGabundo_work: I thought so but also using metacity X is slo16:40
Le-Chuck_ITA1w16:40
Le-Chuck_ITA1the rest of the system is very fast especially if compared to hardy16:40
Le-Chuck_ITA1but it's time to reboot now :) I just upgraded some X libraries16:40
Le-Chuck_ITA1bye and see you16:40
FFForeverhow bad do things get broken =D17:02
FFForeverany news on but 272247 and jaunty?17:12
ikoniaFFForever check the bug report in stead of asking someone to check it for you17:26
ikoniaFFForever: you know the bug report so look it up17:26
=== dickydoo2 is now known as WelshDragon
FFForeverikonia, i did look it up there is nothing that says it still affects jaunty or not =( ive been reading it over and over =(17:27
ikoniapossibly because it doesn't or it would be logged, or maybe it's not been tested on jaunty yet as it's still in heavey flux17:27
ikoniaFFForever: it's not going to say "doesn't effect jaunty" it will only say "does effect jaunty" if it does17:28
FFForeverhow stable is jaunty i know there are package problems but they normally get cleared up in a day or 2 right?17:29
ikoniano17:29
ikoniathey don't get cleared up in a day or two17:29
ikoniait's in a state of flux17:29
ikoniacould work today, break tommorow, broke for a week, fixed for 2 days, broke for a day etc - it's unknown17:29
FFForeverhow long normally till ubuntu+1 reaches some sort of beta/stableness?17:30
BUGabundo_workeheh FFForever only one week past release!17:30
BUGabundo_workLOL17:30
ikoniawhen the "beta" or Release candidate are out17:30
FFForeverBUGabundo_work, lol....17:31
geniiI wonder why people run pre-releases of intermediate versions anyhow17:39
genii(as main OS, not on seaparete partition or sandboxed somehow)17:40
BUGabundo_workgenii: Full Time testing??17:40
ikoniagenii: because they are foolish17:42
BUGabundo_workoh come on ikonia... didn't expect that from you!17:43
ikoniawhat ?17:44
ikoniaBUGabundo_work: people running development releases and expecting it to work or not break as their main OS are being foolish17:44
ikoniamore so when the releases are not even at a beta stage17:44
BUGabundo_workhey...17:44
BUGabundo_workthat's another thing!17:45
BUGabundo_workI know that running alpha it can and WILL break...17:45
ikoniathat's what I said, it's a foolish thing to do17:45
BUGabundo_workno17:45
ikoniaBUGabundo_work: I didn't say you, I said people who run it as a main release17:45
BUGabundo_workwhat you said is that running it is foolish17:45
ikoniayou've been quite open that you'll happy trash and burn your builds17:45
BUGabundo_workeheh17:45
ikoniaBUGabundo_work: in response to genii's comment17:45
ikoniawhich I have just clarified17:46
BUGabundo_workI run it, I know they break17:46
BUGabundo_workI help fixing17:46
ikoniaI didn't say you -17:46
ikoniaI've just clarified17:46
BUGabundo_workand make every release a little bit better for those using a stable!17:46
geniiI did qualify "as their main OS"  etc17:46
BUGabundo_workI know from experience that any MAJOR changes/fix must be done before beta17:47
geniiI like to have a separate partition for dev releases, myself17:47
BUGabundo_workcomplaining that "oh my Ubuntu has this bug" two weeks after Release will do no good17:47
BUGabundo_workgenii: it is MY MAIN and ONLY OS on my laptop!17:47
geniiBUGabundo_work: You live dangerously :)17:47
BUGabundo_workif it breaks, I just boot via network to a daily or stable release!17:47
BUGabundo_workor if without network, liveUSB17:48
BUGabundo_workbeen doing so ever since I started using ubuntu full time17:48
BUGabundo_workwith 6.10 alpha6 or something17:48
BUGabundo_worktried 6.06 and it missed something so I just dist upgraded!17:48
BUGabundo_workwon't stay on stable more then a few weeks17:49
BUGabundo_workusually by alpha 1 or 2, I'm using the devel version17:49
BUGabundo_workit feels strange not having HUGE amounts of updates!17:49
BUGabundo_worklol17:49
geniiBUGabundo_work: Your average user has no clue of network booting or so on (or even "backups", depressingly), and so it always amazes me when someone is using it as their main desktop and then so surprised when suddenly something makes it inoperable17:50
BUGabundo_worklol17:53
BUGabundo_workI know17:53
BUGabundo_workI guess I been doing this for so long that I don't even bother17:53
BUGabundo_workand I know my ways around17:53
* BUGabundo_work reminds ikonia that some day we will have to try that kdepim compile17:54
ikoniaBUGabundo_work: happy to do so17:57
ikoniaBUGabundo_work: the cmake method is new to me so I'm interested17:57

raymearshi everyone. here's a kubuntu related question, if i may: is there any possibility of using the plasmoids from jaunty (beta) - which i've installed alongside intrepid -  in intrepid?18:43
=== ryanakca_ is now known as ryanakca
ikoniaraymears: nope19:04
ikoniaraymears: don't swap distro packages19:04
raymearsikonia: damn and blast. ok. 'keep it clean' seems to be the motto here. another question: where can i find the source code of the plasmoids included in jaunty beta? i tried kde-look, websvn.kde.org and google... and found nothing.19:43
ikoniaraymears: pull it out otf the jaunty repo19:43
raymearsikonia: you mean download the deb and extract things out of it?19:44
ikoniaraymearchange your repo to the jaunty one, do apt-get source $package19:44
ikoniachange the repo back19:44
ikoniadiry but gives you the exact jaunty source package19:44
raymearsheh. didn't think of that. any chance of breaking plasma?19:46
raymearsnow that i think of it.. no19:46
raymearsstupid question. thanks19:47
