hggdhhuh, DanaG, I have no problems with brightness02:08
DanaGWhat brand laptop?02:08
hggdhDell 172102:08
DanaGAh.  Dell has their own way of doing brightness control.02:08
DanaGThe standard ACPI way is what's broken.02:08
hggdhheh02:08
DanaGToshiba, Lenovo, Panasonic, Asus, and perhaps a few others do, too.02:09
hggdhI still can control it through standard <FN> Up/Down02:09

hggdhmight it be a bios issue?02:11
DanaGNope.02:11
DanaGWait, which one?02:11
* hggdh long time ago, had to tweak ACPI code on a Gateway02:11
hggdhBIOS code, me means02:11
DanaGI wish the kernel would include 'zero' as a valid brightness control level.02:12
DanaGOtherwise, the levels you see in Vista and the levels you see in Ubuntu (gnome-power-manager) do not match.02:12
hggdhah, sorry, the bloody beast called 1721 did come with Vista, but I formatted the drive as soon as I verified a Vista boot was going on02:13
hggdh(so I knew it was working)02:13
hggdhbut I never compared brightness levels between Vista and Linux02:14
DanaGFor example, Vista will offer 13, 25, 37, 50, 63, 75, 87, and 100.02:17
DanaGUbuntu will call them 0, 14, 29, 43, 57, 71, 88, and 100.02:18
DanaGHideous.02:18
DanaGI also love how they REMOVED the slider that sets "dim by" -- and "dim by" is already confusing-enough logic.02:19
DanaGShould be "dim TO"02:19
hggdhI remember -- dimly, and I ask pardon for the unintended pun -- a bug about dim to and dim by02:20
hggdhit should be somewhere in LP02:20
DanaGOh yeah, the best thing to do about a lame pun is to entirely ignore it.02:21
DanaG02:21
hggdhheh02:21
DanaGOne time I showed a friend a video of a hidden dock animation in OS X, called "Suck".02:21
DanaGHe said, "It's lame."02:21
DanaGI said, "Yeah, it rather -- oh, never mind, lame pun."02:21
hggdhwhat, BSD is lame?02:21
hggdhah02:22
DanaGthe "oh nevermind, lame pun" was funnier than the pun would have been.02:22
hggdhsorry, two scotchs already in02:22
hggdhdammit, canno even write02:22
hggdhdarn!02:22
hggdhbut I think the LP bug still should be there; of course, this would be an upstream issue, anyways02:23
Cts|359Am i the only one that notices that gnome seems to want to screw with the color depth about 70% though loading up? I'm using the nVidia driver, and i've tried to force default depth in xorg.conf, to no avail02:23
hggdhCts|359, again II sort of remember something about that. Please search in LP02:24
hggdhotherwise, the best route is to open a bug on it02:25
Cts|359i've been through LP and the forums, i found one mention of the NV driver doing it, but the fix didn't help. I was really just swinging by to see if anybody knew for a fact if it was in LP, before i filed it02:26
DanaGHEre's the "suck":  http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=-pBGMbW3jEo02:26
toresbeCts|359: colour depths are not changeable runtime02:27
Cts|359that's what i thought... and only makes me more confused. 'cause i can clearly see the gradients going screwy DURING gnome loading up02:29
toresbeCts|359: Sounds a lot like a graphics driver bug to me02:33
Cts|359beginning to think the same. though, you think you'd hear more if the new 180.22 was behaving poorly02:35

nhandlerIs modifying /etc/apt/sources.list the only way to upgrade to jaunty right now (other than a fresh install)?03:15
x1250nhandler, update-manager -d03:16
nhandlerxxploit: It doesn't detect jaunty03:16
xxploit?03:17
xxploitnhandler: you can do update-manager -d i believe03:18
x1250nhandler, it should work that way. What version are you in?03:18
nhandlerx1250: I have intrepid installed03:21
x1250did you change your sources.list to jaunty and then tried update-manager -d ? I guess it wouldn't work that way.03:22
hggdhnhandler, I had a similar problem when I moved to Jaunty: upgrade-manager -d did not "take" for about four tries.03:23
x1250nhandler, in any case, you could upgrade using an aptitude full-upgrade, if you know how to troubleshoot. Right now update-manager disables some video drivers that don't work on jaunty, and some other little things like "always overwrite" options for dpkg, etc. But thats about it03:25
nhandlerx1250: Yeah, I upgraded to jaunty before by updating sources.list and doing a dist-upgrade. I was hoping update-manager would support jaunty by now03:26
x1250nhandler, you should really use aptitude and not apt-get for that.03:26
x1250well, if update-manager doesn't work, that is03:26
hggdhit should work now. I upgraded very early in the cycle03:27
x1250me too03:27
nhandlerhggdh: I upgraded originally pre-alpha ;)03:27
hggdhyeah, that's what I did also03:27
x1250yep, I used full-upgrade to get into jaunty.03:27
x1250the thing is that update-manager does some automatic stuff, that would prevent some errors. For example, if nvidia drivers are not supported, then goto opensource. Things like that. Usefull stuff.03:28
* hggdh thinks nhandler should be aware of that ;-)03:29
hggdhbut this is interesting. the u-m -d does not still pave the way?03:29
hggdhtoresbe, probably a good place to ask is #ubuntu-motu03:30
x1250I remember I tried it on my desktop few weeks a go, and it worked, but I didn't upgrade. I have my desktop with intrepid.03:30
toresbehggdh: cheers03:30
hggdhcheers03:31
x1250today I installed kubuntu-desktop. Then used aptitude purge and was amazed to see only kubuntu-desktop was uninstalled. apt-get autoremove didn't work either. I had to remove kubuntu purging som libs. Ugly bug.03:34
x1250have any of you had any luck with the "Connect to server" feature, using ssh keys? nautilus keeps asking me for a password. The server has "PasswordAuthentication no", and I can connect with no problems using ssh. Any clues?04:02
DanaGHeh, I just love how scrolling UP on the volume control makes the volume go UP if on the icon, but DOWN if on the scrollbar.  How stupid.04:30

DanaGAnd where's my thing to select internal mic, external mic, or stereo mix?04:39
raofComing, I presume.04:39
DanaGAnd the "simultaneous out" thing would be good too.04:42
DanaGI envision this sort of UI:04:42
DanaGApp name         X   X    X04:42
DanaGwhere the Xes are checkboxes for "play on this device", for each device.04:42
DanaGAnd then have one for "prefer this device"04:42
raofMaybe.  I'm not sure that pulse has the infrastructure for exactly that feature yet, and it's actually kinda hard.04:45
DanaGOh, and an option for "use this device with X channels" would be cool, too.04:46
DanaGI think Gnome is trying to emulate the OS X audio preferences.... and failing miserably.04:49

raofI'd hope it'd exceed them; it shouldn't be too hard.04:50
DanaGNiice, long stacktrace.04:50
DanaG04:50
DanaGI'm considering making a PulseAudio virtual sound card driver for Windows as my senior project; I'd just have to find out how to do driver programming.04:50
dtchenthere's an older Windows port; you shouldn't need to do any driver programming at all.04:55
dtchenjust look at how other apps like foobar2000 plug into directsound04:55
DanaGOther way around!04:56
DanaGI want a virtual sound card.04:56
raofSo you can have network-transparent audio on windows, too.04:57
DanaGAnd local device-switching.04:57
dtchenWindows already has that. Again, see what fb2k does.04:57
DanaGIs it a sound card that all apps can use?04:58
dtchenyes04:58
DanaGI thought it was just a media plater app.04:58
DanaGplayer.04:58
dtchennope04:58
dtchenMS is way ahead of Linux/BSD in this regard.04:58
raofdtchen: Hm.  It's been some time since I used foobar; what exactly does it do?04:59
dtchenraof: it's a media player, arguably the most featureful05:00
raofI know it's a media player.05:00
raofI used it.05:00
raof(Some time ago)05:00
dtchenmeaning what does it offer?05:00
raofWhen I used it, there was no part of it that was like pulseaudio in any way.  What does it do *now* that it didn't do then? :)05:00
dtchenno, it doesn't do what PA does. It just plugs into Window's DS and kernel mixing via separate configurations05:01
dtchenWindows's*05:01
DanaGAnd by device switching, I mean, I should be able to yank my USB sound card and have all apps using it drop back to onboard.05:01
raofdtchen: That doesn't sound at all like what we're talking about :)05:03
dtchenok, from what i understood, DanaG was referring to a virtual sound card that interfaces with PA to handle on-the-fly stream switching05:04
raofA virtual sound card that pipes audio to pulseaudio, yes.05:05
raofDoes foobar2k provide such a thing?  That sounds rather outside its core-competency ;)05:06
dtchenright, and DS already provides an interface to write into and read from, so you simply need to hook PA into DS to handle sink functionality (to use PA's terminology).05:06
dtchenraof: no, the fb2k reference was for examining how fb2k handles the DS sink05:07
raofAaah, right.05:08
raofYes, I know it's possible (although I think the statement "MS is way ahead of Linux/BSD in this regard" might need some citation ;))05:09
dtchenfair enough =)05:10
Teknohttp://blog.uncool.in/2009/01/19/computer-science-fail-higher-education-in-india/05:10
raofBecause it's (obviously) been possible to do exactly that with ALSA for some time, too.05:11
=== elpargo_ is now known as elpargo
dtchensome form of stream mixing, certainly. however, DS offers rather uniform and sensible volume and mixer abstractions05:13
dtchenthe very volume mismatch that you mentioned in -devel hasn't been an issue in Windows for some time05:13
dtcheni'm not a Windows fan by any stretch of the imagination, but some things just are more sensible in other OSes currently.05:14
raofYeah.05:15
raofALSA is apparently not the easiest of audio APIs around.05:15
bluesmokeALSA is "omg my eyes are bleeding" hard to use05:16
DanaGHeh, look at the win7 mixer applet... on single-click, it shows volumes for all output devices.05:16
x1250has anyone noticed that sometimes aptitude fails to remove automatic dependencies? I remember there was a bug about one of those packages in LP, but today I discovered that kubuntu-desktop is another one. Tried purging it, and none of the dependencies were removed.05:39

KuaeraNope. Same error as above19:22
x1250Kuaera, let me see what I did exactly, I'll check the log19:23
KuaeraAlright, thank you19:23
x1250Kuaera, I think the necessary packages are mysql-client-5.1 mysql-server-5.1 libmysqlclient1619:36
x1250but i know I also uninstalled mysql-common libmysqlclient15off, although I don't really know if these packages were really necessary19:36
x1250Maybe it was just part of the install/uninstall tests I did.19:37
x1250Kuaera, a lot of kde packages were unistalled though. I just installed them again afterwards.19:38
KuaeraOkay.19:38
KuaeraNope, can't install mysql-server-5.1 due to password issues19:40
x1250Kuaera, what do you mean?19:40
KuaeraA dialog came up, saying it could not set the mysql root password19:41
x1250I think that happens because it is already set.19:41
KuaeraHm. Any way around that?19:41
x1250I don't know.19:41
Kuaera...hm.19:42
x1250try googling that, I'm almost positive it is because is already set. It tries to set it and fails.19:43
KuaeraWill do, though I'm afraid I don't have the time at the moment19:44
x1250Kuaera, if you run two times: mysqladmin -u root password yourrootsqlpassword19:45
x1250it will fail the second time19:45
jpedrozaI am having some issues with the nvidia drivers and xorg in Jaunty(Development Branch). I can't get X to start even after addin -ignoreABI to startx19:46
KuaeraI see19:46
apokalyp1jpedroza: startx -- -ignoreABI19:46
apokalyp1will pass it properly19:46
hggdhcharlie-tca, ping19:47
apokalyp1or you can edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and add a serverflag for ignoreABI19:47
charlie-tcahggdh: pong19:47
jpedrozaapokalyp1: I have added that and it still won't start19:47

hggdhand why the hell is it doing pulseaudio, I yet do not know19:49
charlie-tcaI don't understand most of it, but am confirming the bug and will attach a stacktrace later.19:50
jpedrozaapokalyp1: It tried to start, but then failed with an error of: couldn't take over org.x.config:19:50
apokalyp1was the error you getting before stating that you had to use ignoreABI?19:50

spitfire_x1250: I'll file a bug, you can confirm :P19:58

SwedeMikeI have a Thinkpad X200. When I set 9.04 to shut off the screen after inactivity, the laptop is unresponsive after the screen has shut down (there is hd activity, but caps lock doesn't work and can't wake it). If I disable screen turn off in powersaving settings, I don't have the problem. Towards what package should I report this? The intel X server?20:49
x1250spitfire_, I'll finish some stuff and get into it.21:01
spitfire_ok21:02
DrHalandoes jaunty feature a new theme?21:39
charlie-tcaNot at this time. I'm sure it will later21:41
DrHalancharlie-tca: what about dust? I use it on intrepid and it looks just awesome compared to darkroom21:44
charlie-tcaHuh??21:44
DrHalani think there were a lot of mockups and attempts to create a nice theme but imo it is already there..21:44
charlie-tcaAll I do is test it21:45
charlie-tcaThe last installs I did on jaunty, the theme was the same as intrepid21:45
DrHalanalright21:45
pHzerohey, if i just had an application crash on jaunty, but have no idea why it happened, is there any use reporting it in launchpad or would it just be a waste of developers' time? i wouldnt be able to provide steps to repeat or anything, since it happened seemingly randomly22:03
raofpHzero: If you've got the apport crash report, it can be useful.  All crashes are bugs, and you can sometimes glean useful information from the crash report.22:06
pHzeroraof, got it. cheers22:08

HDAPShdaps-pivot gives an x,y of 0,0 as well, unsurpringly22:38
pwnguintheres a man on a mission...22:51
iddoanyone knows about a jaunty fix for intel 82945G graphics chip? it behaves slower in alpha3 than in hardy 8.04 i had23:05
spitfire_iddo: And it will23:09
spitfire_It's upstream23:09
spitfire_Nothing ubuntu can fix:/23:09
iddowhat do you mean?23:09
spitfire_Intel graphics driver is doing transition to GEM.23:10
spitfire_Ant it doesn't work well yet23:10
iddowhat is GEM ?23:10
spitfire_iddo: gooogle23:10
spitfire_And the "old" driver that works is in hardy.23:11
=== sisto1 is now known as sisto
spitfire_If you need fast 3d, you'd better stick with it.23:11
iddoi already installed jaunty... i like it a lot... except the 3d :(23:11
iddois there a way to use the old driver for now?23:12
iddoi cannot go back.. they fixed some stuff that annoyed me in hardy.. like the seahorse keyring pam not revealing passwords anymore it seems...23:13
iddoi get the password for empathy and ssh unlocked on login, and seahorse doesnt reveal it23:14
iddopasswords23:14
iddowhen the final/good intel driver is due? in the final jaunty release?23:15
iddoglxinfo says direct rendering: Yes23:16
iddobut it's slow:(23:17
x1250iddo, try  glxinfo | grep -i "opengl vendor"23:28
iddoOpenGL vendor string: Tungsten Graphics, Inc23:29
iddowhat does it tell you?23:30
x1250thats fine. What is your xorg.conf?23:30
iddoi installed jaunty alpha3 15mins ago.. didnt touch xorg.conf23:30
iddolemme look whats in it23:31
iddoit's pretty empty23:31
iddoIdentifier"Configured Video Device"23:31
x1250try: paste.ubuntu.com23:31
iddohttp://paste.ubuntu.com/107521/23:32
iddofor example if i zoom in with compiz i get pixelized image instead of smooth image23:34
iddoand there's tearing with 3d animations etc.23:34
x1250iddo, if 2D is slow maybe you could try Option "AccelMethod" "EXA", in Section Device, just under "Configured Video Device" (in Section Device, not Screen). If it doesn't work, then remove it editing xorg.conf with nano, or running: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg.23:34
iddoi think 2d is okay..23:35
iddobut i can try it....23:35
x1250iddo, if 3D is working, then its working.23:36
x1250try the 2D stuff.23:36
iddobut 3d worked a lot better in hardy23:36
iddoi forgot how much glxgears i got in hardy, now i get 371 fps (pentium4 3ghz cpu)23:38
iddoi'll try your AccelMethod EXA suggestion and i'll come back..23:39
iddoi don't notice any difference with EXA in xorg.conf23:42
iddoany other ideas?23:43
x1250Uhm, maybe take a look at LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose glxinfo, and /var/log/Xorg.0.log, but they are probably fine.23:44
iddohttp://paste.ubuntu.com/107524/23:46
iddoi pasted /var/log/Xorg.0.log there23:46
iddoany ideas?23:47
iddoand glxinfo here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/107527/23:50
x1250there are a couple some erros in xorg.conf, but no idea what they mean/do: lines 273, 274, 275, and some other warnings like 310, 311, 312. I guess they're driver problems, but I really don't know.23:51
x1250glxinfo looks ok to me.23:52
iddoso are there any ideas i could try? or just wait and hope for januty to be updated?23:53
x1250I guess you'll have to wait, but maybe someone else can help you more than I can.23:54
iddoi tried dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg23:56
iddoand chose the kernel buffer thing23:56
iddoit gave Option"UseFBDev""true"23:56
iddoin xorg.conf23:56
iddoi'll log out and try it....23:57
