| billisnice | where are the instructions to install the codec for 9.04? | 00:37 |
| charlie-tca | Are there instructions already? It is still only alpha3 | 00:39 |
| cwillu | billisnice, and what codec? 'The codec' isn't very specific | 00:40 |
| billisnice | for my dvd player | 00:40 |
| charlie-tca | billisnice: If there are none, the ones for 8.10 might work. | 00:40 |
| cwillu | the usual trick is to install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 00:40 |
| billisnice | here are the 8.10 instructions at http://www.ubuntugeek.com/install-mplayer-and-multimedia-codecs-libdvdcss2w32codecsw64codecs-in-ubuntu-810-intrepid-ibex.html | 00:40 |
| * cwillu wonders if billisnice was planning on contributing any bug reports, or whether this was merely an exercise in trying new stuff :p | 00:41 | |
| billisnice | did not know if 9.04 had some or not | 00:41 |
| cwillu | 9.04 hasn't been released yet, doubt much has been written for it | 00:41 |
| billisnice | i thought there might be a repository somewhere | 00:41 |
| maxb | Why not just try following the intrepid instructions but changing intrepid to jaunty everywhere? | 00:43 |
| maxb | It does not pay to be to reliant on explicit howtos | 00:43 |
| billisnice | i will | 00:43 |
| maxb | especially when running a development release | 00:43 |

| * charlie-tca nods | 00:46 | |
| maxb | I remember how insane it gets in here on release day :-) | 00:46 |
| maxb | What always surprises me is that so many people are waiting to download isos | 00:48 |
| billisnice | i notice that it did not install the restricted drivers for my motherboard | 00:48 |
| billisnice | are they not connected yet? | 00:49 |
| maxb | There are restricted drivers for motherboards? | 00:49 |
| billisnice | with ndvia | 00:49 |
| maxb | Erm, you mean your graphics card? | 00:49 |
| billisnice | ok | 00:50 |
| billisnice | on my motherboard | 00:50 |
| gourgi | maxb hopefully users will use .torrent instead of .iso for jaunty | 00:50 |
| * maxb favours jigdo | 00:51 | |
| * gourgi not aware of jigdo | 00:51 | |
| maxb | But my point is.... why do people feel compelled to have CDs on the day of release? I'd think that you do a fresh install when you _need_ to do a fresh install | 00:51 |
| maxb | jigdo is amazingly cool. It reuses package files you've already downloaded to avoid redownloading the same data as part of the cd image | 00:52 |
| Kano | hi, did anybody try fgrlx with ignoreABI? | 00:55 |
| maxb | I haven't tried, I assumed people would be shouting about it if it worked | 01:01 |
| maxb | FWIW, I'm getting acceptable results with radeonhd | 01:01 |
| maxb | Using options AccelMethod=EXA, DRI=true. | 01:02 |
| maxb | When Ubuntu defaulted to radeon, the performance was abysmal | 01:02 |
| maxb | though I've not tested whether it's radeon vs. radeonhd, or the fine tuning X options that truly help | 01:02 |
| Kano | well my ati card is broken therefore i could not test it | 01:04 |

| spr0k3t | I have a bug that I want to post, but I wanted to confirm it's not just with my system. | 03:25 |
| spr0k3t | however, I may have a way to test it... can you drag-n-drop your gnome-panel to any location on the desktop (bound to the edges of course) | 03:26 |
| pwnguin | i cant... | 03:27 |
| spr0k3t | k, posting the bug. | 03:27 |
| pwnguin | but it's not twinview | 03:27 |
| spr0k3t | I'm trying to get one panel on each monitor... both located at the top... but I can't "drag-n-drop" like I'm used to. | 03:29 |
| pwnguin | right click-> properties | 03:30 |
| spr0k3t | nod... it stays on monitor0 | 03:30 |
| spr0k3t | there's no way to move it to monitor1 | 03:31 |
| pwnguin | hrm, well this is going to be a challenge | 03:32 |
| pwnguin | i need to unmount the root partition to tune it to ext4 | 03:32 |
| hggdh | boot from a CD... | 03:33 |
| pwnguin | i have a intrepid partition around for this sorta work, but the intrepid kernel doesn't have ext4 i dont think | 03:33 |
| pwnguin | i might be able to chroot | 03:34 |
| spr0k3t | nod... know any good guides for that migration? | 03:34 |
| pwnguin | im reading http://kernelnewbies.org/Ext4 | 03:34 |
| DanaG | Intrepid does have ext4. It's just called ext4dev, and needs tune2fs -E test_fs | 03:34 |
| Volkodav | anybody experienced players freeze once paused ? xine and mplayer do freeze vlc is ok though | 03:36 |
| pwnguin | honestly, im surprised that ext4 is the first ext to support extends | 03:36 |
| pwnguin | it took me a long time to figure out ext wasn't "extent file system" | 03:37 |
| pwnguin | it should really help boot time | 03:37 |
| spr0k3t | well, if I can do better than 14secs, I'll be happy. | 03:44 |
| Volkodav | it boots really fast compared to ext3 | 03:45 |
| spr0k3t | nods, I'm currently at 16secs with a fresh jaunty install on ext3. | 03:45 |
| biouser | join #html | 03:53 |

| lucent | how *do* you configure GDM resolution on Ubuntu systems? | 08:11 |
| lucent | that's always plagued me | 08:11 |
| lucent | it used to be some obscure line in a GDM conf file | 08:11 |
| lucent | that file moved, now I don't even know where to begin to look | 08:11 |
| lucent | I didn't see it mentioned in the manual pages, did I miss something? | 08:12 |
| pwnguin | man gdm | 08:12 |
| pwnguin | there's a config section in the manpage | 08:12 |
| lucent | pwnguin: are you certain that the information is in there about the resolution though? I read through and apparently I missed that part | 08:12 |
| pwnguin | config is done via gdmsetup or /etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom | 08:13 |
| FFForever | any idea about my problem? | 08:14 |
| FFForever | lemme guess i should come back tmw? | 08:14 |
| lucent | pwnguin: try gdmsetup though, I know what you said is essentially true, but gdmsetup does not really configure the resolution that is set for GDM | 08:14 |
| lucent | FFForever: go research it, figure this out, and document it for others | 08:14 |
| lucent | don't whine about stuff please, I must be very rude now | 08:14 |
| FFForever | lucent, ............ | 08:15 |

| pwnguin | i didn't | 08:21 |
| lucent | I'm calling your card, it's either called something different that I'm not familiar with or you're just making shit up | 08:21 |
| pwnguin | i just mentioned the file name; gdm setup is craptacular | 08:22 |
| lucent | anyhow I'll just drop the question | 08:23 |

| legodude_ | ah | 15:45 |
| legodude_ | what drivers? | 15:45 |
| bernier | nvidia | 15:45 |
| spr0k3t | bernier: you have to modify your xorg.conf and add the line [Option "IgnoreABI" "True"] in the "ServerFlags" section... then the driver should show up in the list. | 15:47 |
| legodude_ | aren't there stability problems with that | 15:47 |
| bernier | ok Ill try that anks | 15:47 |
| spr0k3t | legodude_: so far I've not found any... yet | 15:48 |
| spr0k3t | I'm currently running 180.22 and it's working fairly well so far. | 15:50 |
| spr0k3t | the only issue I've found is a problem with 64bit flash beta locking up firefox. but that's almost expected. | 15:51 |
| bernier | ok im back | 15:57 |

| spr0k3t | k, make a backup copy of that xorg.conf then run [nvidia-xconfig] as root... it will add the needed elements. | 15:58 |
| Oli`` | It appears (at least in fairly simple tests) to perform quite a bit better than 2.5.* and has better features (for developers) | 15:59 |
| spr0k3t | Oli``: check to see if there's a "needs packaging" request on launchpad | 15:59 |
| spr0k3t | if not, there's still time before a feature freeze to get the request in. | 15:59 |

| bernier | ok | 16:04 |
| bernier | now theres a serverlayout option but no serverflags | 16:04 |

| spr0k3t | here's the critical part of my xorg.conf file for you to look over: http://paste.ubuntu.com/109440/ | 16:05 |
| bernier | ok i'll try just creating that section | 16:06 |

| spr0k3t | no, unless you have 2 monitors. | 16:07 |

| Webspot | Hi all. I'm having problems with pkg-config and libavcodec and libavformat. On intrepid "pkg-config --cflags libavcodec" shows "-I/usr/include/ffmpeg", and the same for libavformat. On jaunty, both commands just show a blank output, when it should be "-I/usr/include/libavcodec" and "-I/usr/include/libavformat". This seems to be missing from the .pc file. Is this right, or am I being totally stupid? :-) | 16:24 |
| spr0k3t | bernier: odd, not sure why it's not showing up in the hardware drivers app, but glad the drivers are working now. | 16:31 |
| x1250 | strange issue: with latest xserver-xorg-input-synaptics, click and drag results in a involuntary double click. Try dragging a window around, it will maximize :) | 16:36 |

| hggdh | nope. Never could get it to work reliably. | 16:51 |
| hggdh | I would have sound, then I would not, etc, etc, etc. Eventually, I just gave up on it | 16:51 |

| FFForever | (black screen?) | 18:25 |
| roe_ | I have gdm auto login, so it locks up with a picture of the desktop | 18:28 |
| roe_ | it seems that dbus isn't starting automatically, but Ican start it manually. I also restart hald after I start dbus. | 18:29 |
| FFForever | how do u know if its starting or not? | 18:30 |
| FFForever | roe_, try just going to tty1 and then back to tty7 | 18:30 |
| roe_ | it locks up, I can't change ttys | 18:31 |
| roe_ | ps aux |grep dbus | 18:31 |
| FFForever | ohhh | 18:31 |
| roe_ | returns just the grep | 18:31 |
| FFForever | =\ | 18:31 |
| LLStarks | ext4 in jaunty is disaster. | 18:33 |
| LLStarks | *is a | 18:33 |
| DrHalan | LLStarks: why? | 18:34 |
| FFForever | i am on ext4 should i worry? | 18:35 |
| DrHalan | yeah me too :S | 18:35 |
| LLStarks | you can't use gparted unless you compile it | 18:35 |
| LLStarks | and even then, you can't edit the partitions while they are mounted. | 18:35 |
| FFForever | so compile it? | 18:35 |
| FFForever | so unmount? | 18:35 |
| DrHalan | puh | 18:35 |
| FFForever | compile a live cd? | 18:35 |
| DrHalan | i thought my machine is about to crash | 18:35 |
| FFForever | DrHalan, yeah.... | 18:35 |
| FFForever | i was grabbing my jaunty cd 2 start over.... | 18:36 |
| DrHalan | haha | 18:36 |
| LLStarks | if you can show me where the svn allows for a livecd compilation, that would be awesome. | 18:36 |
| DrHalan | well ive to say | 18:36 |
| DrHalan | i switched to 64bit and ext4 in jaunty it is such a speedup | 18:36 |
| FFForever | i am still on 32bit | 18:37 |
| FFForever | ill be on 32bit till adobe decides to make flash stable... | 18:37 |
| FFForever | i cant play music.... | 18:38 |
| FFForever | do i have 2 reboot after installing plugins? | 18:38 |
| FFForever | bah i only have 4gb of music =\ | 18:42 |
| FFForever | and my 80gb ipod is full... | 18:42 |
| DrHalan | FFForever: you can run flash trough ndiswrapper or just use gnash it works fine with youtube | 18:48 |
| FFForever | wtf how the hell would u run flash through ndiswrapper..... | 18:49 |
| FFForever | DrHalan, i play lots of flash games XD | 18:49 |
| roe_ | ripping out gnome from jaunty and installing gnome from intrepid is fun | 18:51 |
| FFForever | roe_, i can only imagine... | 18:51 |
| FFForever | roe why not just rip out gnome and install from svn? | 18:51 |
| roe_ | oh because that is mroe likely to result in a working system | 18:52 |
| roe_ | </sarcasm> | 18:52 |
| FFForever | ... | 18:52 |
| FFForever | can ubuntu play itunes movies? | 18:52 |
| FFForever | i have a few i bought.... | 18:52 |
| roe_ | drm? | 18:52 |
| FFForever | do they sell them without drm =P | 18:53 |
| roe_ | aren't they or is that just music? | 18:53 |
| FFForever | i assume they have fairplay... | 18:54 |

| DanaG | Hmm, I wonder which'll be first: Xorg-1.6-supporting fglrx, or R600 3D support in radeon / radeonhd? | 19:05 |
| roe_ | anyone know what package is responsible for picking up usb events? | 19:08 |
| gourgi | roe_: hal or udev i think, not sure | 19:11 |
| roe_ | fun times | 19:16 |
| roe_ | ubuntu doesn't like when you downgrade udev | 19:16 |
| FFForever | gentoo ftw? | 19:16 |
| FFForever | i like ubuntu but this login bug is annoying... | 19:16 |
| roe_ | no, debian ftw | 19:16 |
| FFForever | i a stuck on 7.10 or 9.04 =\ | 19:17 |
| DanaG | login bug? | 19:17 |
| FFForever | either i change the ttyp to 1 then back to 7 or i stay out outdated 7.10 witch i have to compile everything since its so bloody outdated.... | 19:17 |
| DanaG | huh? | 19:18 |
| FFForever | btw nice changes on the installer (except the map didn't work 4 me....) | 19:18 |
| DanaG | What's the symptom? | 19:18 |
| FFForever | DanaG, when i login i get a black screen till i change to tty1 then back to tty7 | 19:18 |
| DanaG | ah. | 19:18 |
| FFForever | DanaG, i am guessing it has to due with nvidia though..... | 19:18 |
| DanaG | Hmm, if you create a temporary new user, does it still do that for the new user? | 19:19 |
| FFForever | DanaG, this was on a fresh install... | 19:19 |
| FFForever | all i did was install nvidia's driver and add ignoreabi in xorg... | 19:19 |
| FFForever | btw why is the xorg config so bare? | 19:19 |
| FFForever | i was amazed it worked since it didn't even list drivers in the xorg.conf.... | 19:20 |
| DanaG | Most configuration is automatic nowadays. | 19:20 |
| DanaG | However, nvidia driver does need to be explicitly specified. | 19:20 |
| FFForever | DanaG, yeah i ran the nvidia-xconfig =) | 19:21 |
| FFForever | DanaG, any idea why my sound would studder in vlc? | 19:22 |
| FFForever | movie player is fine on sound.... | 19:23 |
| DanaG | Hmm, vlc doesn't play well with PulseAudio, for one thing. | 19:24 |
| DanaG | I don't bother with VLC -- for me, it fails miserably at subtitles. | 19:25 |
| FFForever | how can i change to alsa? | 19:25 |
| FFForever | i hate pulseaudio since only ONE app can use sound... i have to quit the other... | 19:26 |
| DanaG | That's an indication that things are NOT using pulseaudio properly, actually. | 19:26 |
| DanaG | And VLC has a specific PulseAudio output plugin. | 19:26 |
| DanaG | For me, my biggest recent issue with PA has been that it crashes on resume from suspend. | 19:27 |
| FFForever | DanaG, are you on a laptop with jaunty by any chance? | 19:27 |
| DanaG | Yeah. | 19:28 |
| DanaG | Using 'radeon' driver. | 19:28 |
| FFForever | do you use the touch pad? | 19:28 |
| DanaG | Yeah... it was initially way too fast for me. | 19:28 |
| DanaG | I had to enable shmconfig and install gsynaptics to tweak the touchpad. | 19:28 |
| FFForever | when i move stuff with the tp it moves them 2 the top right and sticks them there.... | 19:28 |
| FFForever | i have 2 unfocus the window and refocus it and sometimes it works others i am screwed... | 19:29 |
| x1250 | FFForever, xserver-xorg-input-synaptics is buggy | 19:29 |
| FFForever | x1250, any better driver 2 use? | 19:29 |
| DanaG | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/+bug/320639 | 19:29 |
| FFForever | there was an update this morning for it... | 19:29 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 320639 in xserver-xorg-input-synaptics "Touchpad movement problems in 0.99.3" [Undecided,New] | 19:29 |
| FFForever | how do i unload the old one and reload the new one? | 19:30 |
| FFForever | DanaG, i fixed the problem =D | 19:31 |
| FFForever | disabled compiz... XD | 19:31 |
| DanaG | http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14415 | 19:31 |
| DanaG | That's not a "fix", it's a workaround. | 19:31 |
| ubottu | Freedesktop bug 14415 in Driver/radeonhd "Wrong DPI informations with radeonhd" [Normal,Resolved: notabug] | 19:31 |
| DanaG | It's a matter of semantics. | 19:31 |
| FFForever | workaround is better then nothing at this point.... | 19:31 |
| FFForever | DanaG, do u happen to know where i can get the pulse audio driver for vlc? | 19:32 |
| dtchen | aptitude install vlc-plugin-pulse | 19:32 |
| dtchen | of course, you could also just use vlc's alsa output, and configure it to use 'default'. ubuntu 8.10 and newer route everything through pulse regardless. | 19:33 |
| FFForever | dtchen, it studders when i do that | 19:34 |
| dtchen | FFForever: please describe "stutters" more explicitly | 19:34 |
| dtchen | FFForever: also, you can adjust fragment sizes, etc., in /etc/pulse/daemon.conf | 19:34 |
| FFForever | that fixed it | 19:35 |
| FFForever | thanks dtchen =) | 19:35 |
| FFForever | adding that fixed it..., when i used default it would playsound ... stop ... play more sound ... stop on and off on and off... | 19:35 |
| dtchen | on 8.10? you'd need to ensure you have all the updated pulseaudio and libasound2-plugins packages. | 19:36 |
| FFForever | 9.04 | 19:36 |
| FFForever | 8.10 never worked for me... | 19:37 |
| FFForever | i had 2 hold a key to boot so i gave up and downgraded to 7.10 | 19:37 |
| dtchen | hmm | 19:38 |
| DanaG | hold a key? | 19:38 |
| FFForever | dtchen, any idea on how i can add media play back to full screen on vlc? | 19:38 |
| FFForever | yeah hold any key during boot =) | 19:38 |
| FFForever | but its gone on 9.04 | 19:38 |
| dtchen | FFForever: i don't know what you mean by "media play back to full screen" | 19:39 |
| FFForever | add play/pause/stop/etc when in full screen | 19:40 |
| dtchen | FFForever: that works here in both dragon and totem | 19:48 |
| dtchen | FFForever: perhaps your MM hotkeys are not recognised and/or configured? | 19:49 |
| FFForever | dragon? | 19:49 |
| FFForever | ohhh i was talking about an onscreen one.... | 19:49 |
| dtchen | dragon is kde4's totem | 19:49 |
| dtchen | "an onscreen"...? | 19:50 |
| FFForever | ill ask in vlc =) | 19:51 |
| DanaG | Anyone know how to downclock an R600 card in Linux? | 20:11 |
| DanaG | I don't care about dynamic power management; I just want to peg the thing in low-speed mode. | 20:12 |
| nacho | is it possible to request an update of gtranslator now that gtr 1.9.4 was released? | 20:34 |
| nacho | I think jordi is quite busy these days to make the package | 20:34 |
| fosco_ | podria ser eso | 20:43 |
| DrHalan1 | with xservers auto-config how do i know which driver is runnnig? | 20:52 |
| x1250 | DrHalan1, in /var/log/Xorg.0.log should be pretty obvious | 20:54 |
| DrHalan1 | x1250: strange thought i was using vesa but i am using nv still even 2D is pretty bugg | 20:56 |
| DrHalan1 | whatever thanks :) | 20:56 |
| x1250 | np | 20:57 |

| thenetmonkey9250 | does anyone have a working grub menu.lst with entries for xen on jaunty amd64? | 21:43 |

| o_portista17 | hello, i need some help here, i'm getting an error while trying to update or opening synaptic, because of the hwtest-gtk , does anyone has the same problem? | 22:14 |
| Sundar | newbie here.i wanted to debootstrap a jaunty armel.i created a stage 1 image in a new partition debootstrap --verbose --foreign --arch armel --variant=buildd jaunty $LFS http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports. when i do stage 2: chroot $LFS /debootstrap/debootstrap --second-stageI error :chroot: cannot run command `/debootstrap/debootstrap': Exec format error . help please. | 22:27 |
| DanaG | Oh heyas, I know fglrx won't work with 3D with the new X server... but is there a way to use it with 2D only, at least? | 22:35 |
| DanaG | I don't like the open-source drivers, because they have no power management support. | 22:36 |
| o_portista17 | i can't update "tor" package, because i need the glibc-private but it is not installable | 22:50 |
| roe_ | sooo, fresh install of jaunty, gnome crashes | 23:23 |
| roe_ | more like freezes with just the background displayed | 23:24 |
| roe_ | what is blazes... | 23:32 |
| roe_ | where is jaunty's xorg.conf stored? | 23:32 |
| andersk | /etc/X11/xorg.conf, although it generally runs fine without an xorg.conf at all. | 23:33 |
| roe_ | yes, I see that | 23:33 |
| ryanpg | anyone experiencing pointer troubles in jaunty? My left mouse button seems to be behaving as a middle mouse button | 23:33 |
| roe_ | I need to force the use of the vesa driver | 23:34 |
| roe_ | can I just add the appropriate statement into the blank xorg.conf? | 23:34 |
| andersk | Yeah. All you need is Section "Device", Identifier "Default Device", Driver "vesa", EndSection (on four lines). | 23:34 |
