| DanaG | I just pinned the X server at the previous version. | 00:58 |
|---|---|---|
| DanaG | Oh yeah, and my video driver hang... is definitely a defective GPU. | 00:59 |
| DanaG | That doesn't quite explain why the fglrx versions newer than 8.543 all give kernel panics upon trying to start the login screen. =þ | 00:59 |
| mn | How is Jaunty dev going? What's the latest news with it? | 01:09 |
| x1250 | any dev could take a quick look to this thread please: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1020401, should I submit a bug for this? | 09:44 |
| gnomefreak | x1250: yes please submit a bug for it | 10:09 |
| x1250 | gnomefreak, ok | 10:11 |
| gnomefreak | x1250: normally best to file bugs on LP since we dont scan forums looking for bugs. | 10:15 |
| MistDragn | I didn't even say anything.. geez | 12:29 |
| MistDragn | somebody's a little uptight | 12:29 |
| ikonia | MistDragn: your behaviour is unacceptabe, you have said you will not abide by ubuntu channels rules, so until you agree to do so, please don't join | 12:29 |
| MistDragn | that was a different channel | 12:30 |
| ikonia | same rules | 12:30 |
| MistDragn | well i will abide by them here | 12:30 |
| ikonia | you said you won't abide by them and you don't care | 12:30 |
| MistDragn | i like this channel cause it has +1 | 12:30 |
| MistDragn | i meant in that other channel | 12:30 |
| MistDragn | that i wont advertise | 12:30 |
| MistDragn | i told you I was born in 1999 so a lot of concepts are foreign to me | 12:31 |
| MistDragn | the same year Prince likes to party in | 12:31 |
| ikonia | MistDragn: unless you have a disscusion on ubuntu 9.04 - pelase don't talk | 12:31 |
| MistDragn | cause 2 thousand zero zero party on wayne all the time | 12:31 |
| MistDragn | how are the specs on ubunto 9.04 versus the previous version? | 12:32 |
| MistDragn | im thinking of maybe upgrading from 9.03 | 12:32 |
| MistDragn | but i heard 9.04 was less stable | 12:32 |
| ikonia | MistDragn: it is not a stable version, read the topic | 12:32 |
| MistDragn | how do I pull it up again? | 12:32 |
| ikonia | type "/topic" | 12:33 |
| MistDragn | .topic | 12:33 |
| MistDragn | "/topic" | 12:33 |
| MistDragn | !topic | 12:33 |
| ikonia | without the speech marks | 12:33 |
| MistDragn | hmmm..... | 12:33 |
| MistDragn | it's hard with only 2 fingers on this hand | 12:33 |
| MistDragn | my dog...we were wrestling | 12:33 |
| bhale | alright, I give up. considering usplash corrupted my VT's and someone decided that I shouldnt be able to ctrl-alt-backspace | 13:14 |
| bhale | how am i supposed to cycle X? | 13:14 |
| jpds | bhale: There'll be an option for reactivating the C-A-B. | 13:16 |
| bhale | X is fairly hosed so I cant launch any new programs from gnome-panel | 13:16 |
| jpds | Upstream decided to turn the feature off by default. | 13:16 |
| bhale | yeah, this page doesn't exist https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DontZap | 13:18 |
| bhale | from the alpha 2 notes | 13:19 |
| bhale | doesnt matter, whatever was waiting for a timeout and eating my mouse clicks is done now, think it might have been nautilus desktop | 13:20 |
| Arodon | anyone else experiencing DNS resolution failures for *.ubuntu.com when using wget, apt-get? ping/dig/nslookup are working fine | 14:24 |
| legodude | I'm still having a problem with the nvidia drivers | 15:48 |
| legodude | when I try to install nvidia-glx-180 it asks to remove a whole bunch of stuff | 15:48 |
| legodude | including kubuntu-desktop and xorg | 15:48 |
| JontheEchidna | legodude: nvidia has to update the drivers for the newest xorg before they'll work | 15:50 |
| legodude | ah gotcha | 15:50 |
| JontheEchidna | I fear for the legacy drivers :( | 15:50 |
| legodude | howso? | 15:50 |
| JontheEchidna | they only got updated for Intrepid's xorg a month ago | 15:51 |
| JontheEchidna | a month after Intrepid was released | 15:51 |
| legodude | but why are legacy drivers important? | 15:51 |
| legodude | for older HW you mean? | 15:51 |
| JontheEchidna | yes | 15:51 |
| legodude | gotcah | 15:51 |
| legodude | although | 15:52 |
| legodude | it is not that bad | 15:52 |
| legodude | new cards are cheap enough | 15:52 |
| JontheEchidna | my motherboard is too old, heh | 15:54 |
| JontheEchidna | they're all PCIe now | 15:54 |
| JontheEchidna | not saying that I couldn't get an older one that still works with the newer drivers that would work with my PC | 15:54 |
| DanaG | I've locked xserver-xorg-core. | 15:55 |
| DanaG | I also have both Intrepid and Jaunty repos enabled, together. | 15:55 |
| DanaG | Makes for risk of further breakage, but I know how to deal with dependency hassles. | 15:55 |
| legodude | ahh | 15:58 |
| legodude | so you're still using the older one | 15:58 |
| legodude | I wanted to try jaunty because I am having a devil of a time getting my three monitors to work | 15:58 |
| DanaG | I also was having issues with fglrx hanging... but then I realized I had hardware issues going on. | 16:09 |
| DanaG | That doesn't explain why anything newer than 8.543 caused actual kernel panics so bad it couldn't even blink caps lock. =þ | 16:10 |

| l337ingDisorder | can anyone tell me how to uninstall a program I just installed from source? | 19:31 |
| CarlFK | l337ingDisorder: what command installed it? | 19:33 |
| l337ingDisorder | CarlFK: make install | 19:45 |
| l337ingDisorder | CarlFK: but there's no make uninstall | 19:46 |
| l337ingDisorder | or make remore | 19:46 |
| l337ingDisorder | err make remove | 19:46 |
| CarlFK | check the Makefile | 19:46 |
| l337ingDisorder | CarlFK: Ok thanks. It's quite long - what should I look for? | 19:48 |
| CarlFK | "install" | 19:48 |
| CarlFK | then something similar for removing | 19:48 |
| CarlFK | if there isn't, then look at what install does, and un do that | 19:48 |
| CarlFK | which is generally a pain | 19:49 |
| x1250 | l337ingDisorder, try the INSTALL or README files, if they exist. Or, see this: http://lists.arabeyes.org/archives/general/2002/June/msg00041.html | 19:50 |
| l337ingDisorder | it has Clean and Veryclean | 19:50 |
| l337ingDisorder | yeah I checked the INSTALL and README files. No help there | 19:51 |
| l337ingDisorder | looks like I'm gonna have to bite the bullet and remove it manually. | 19:51 |
| x1250 | http://lists.arabeyes.org/archives/general/2002/June/msg00041.html can help | 19:52 |
| ideasman_42 | hey there, many packages here? | 20:54 |
| ideasman_42 | (people who package apps) | 20:55 |
| crimsun | packages or maintainers/developers? | 20:57 |
| DanaG | Hmm, any chance of "forward-porting" (yes, forward) this fix? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/261318 | 21:05 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 261318 in linux "Regression: new Toshiba Laptop Support (tlsup) driver breaks Toshiba hotkeys; input device does not support 'kbd' input handler" [High,In progress] | 21:05 |
| fde | How much progress has happened so far with new packages? Seems things have just been recompiled so far? | 21:10 |
| nosrednaekim | when can we expect ath5k drivers in jaunty? | 21:43 |
| nosrednaekim | I had to manually compile them, which wasn't difficult but it was a bit time consuming | 21:44 |
| * DanaG thinks it's funny that the Intrepid-proposed kernel has fixed Toshiba support... and the Jaunty kernel does not. | 22:08 | |
| DanaG | grr... stupid nvidia completely ignores even single-monitor xrandr requests. | 22:29 |
| DanaG | ... and forgets my screen resolution settings each time Xorg starts. | 22:29 |
| DanaG | And my CRT thinks it's not 4:3 -- it calls itself 1280x1024. I keep having to set it back to 1280x960 manually... every damn time I log on. | 22:30 |
| fde | DanaG: Its much more productive to complain via launchpad where a developer is likely to read ;) | 23:27 |
