[00:01] pwnguin: how do I do that withing the installer? [00:03] manual partitioning and don't format the partition you designate with the mount point /home [00:24] cd /home/burner/Upload [00:25] interesting... seems dolphin spams the channel when I use the terminal part of it and switch folders ;) [00:48] anyone under xubuntu jaunty here ? [01:00] yes [01:01] I'm using 64-bit jaunty since alpha2 [01:11] What the hell happened to the menu ? Oo [01:11] i gotta launch xfce-setting-show manually and cant find the menu editor [01:12] Equality, make a stand!!: echo "alias woman='man' >> ~/.bashrc [01:13] i never read any womanual of my life, Ienorand :) [01:14] RTFW? [01:15] :) [01:15] :D [01:16] Any idea how i can get the breathe icons ? [01:16] i want a tarball with all the files :( don't know how to use that bzr thingy [01:16] w/e, dl'ing bzr :) [01:22] SiDi: you mean Applications menu went away? [01:22] That was about Jaunty alpha4 release. [01:22] Well, the "Xfce parameters" window in the menu [01:22] its gone [01:23] and i don't see the menu editor anywhere [01:23] currently updating my packages tho [01:23] You have to look through all the selections. In 4.6, everything got changed [01:24] i don't see those new notification things tho [01:24] but the os boots slightly faster :) [01:25] You can always go to #xfce and ask them. They will know [01:26] Or give xubuntu a day or two and see if it gets in there. Some of the items are still in work [01:26] yeh i'll just wait [01:26] anyways just having a look [01:27] omg update failed :( 260 mb to download again [01:27] ouch [01:27] the last alpha i tested was more stable :p [01:27] my xfce panels crashed too [01:27] and i cant use shortcuts to launch a terminal :p [01:27] brb ;D [01:28] oh noes... they removed ctrl + alt + backspace [01:32] alt+f2? [01:32] back [01:32] rebooted via shell + gdm restart [01:33] alt+F2 wouldnt answer either :p [01:33] and when i logged back half of my conf was dead :) [01:33] Looks like your install is very unstable. What happened to it? [01:34] dunno [01:34] just did it an hour ago [01:34] it ran well [01:34] the alpha3 was getting my motherboard uber crazy tho so there is a progress [01:34] (intrepid is perfectly stable - everything works out of the box !) [01:34] Yeah, alpha3 was unstable. [01:35] alpha3 scared me [01:35] the motherboard was bipping till i shut the system down, continuously [01:35] of course, I have lost the panels and menus once or twice. and had to update through the tty a couple of times, too [01:35] well i knew what to expect :) [01:36] but its not stable enough for university work (and diablo 2 lans) yet :P [01:36] You think alpha3 scared you? you should have been here, with an installation that kept closing the windows I was working in [01:37] well when its hardware related, its scary yeh [01:37] rebooting, brb :) [01:43] back :) [01:52] Going bed, good night charlie-tca [01:59] the virtualbox kernel rebuild fails, any ideas? [03:03] I just ran into a new issue with +1 and my laptop. I was at 91% battery and it said that there was no battery remaining and shut down. [03:04] haha [03:18] what is th command that shows all th hardwar ? [03:23] dmesg [03:38] Volkodav: dmesg? [03:39] i think they were looking for lshw [03:39] maybe [03:42] anyone got songbird working on 64 bit?? === bluesmoke is now known as Amaranth [03:50] Anyone happen to know if the radeon driver with the 2.6.29 kernel supports KMS? [03:50] I know Jaunty won't have 2.6.29, but I can always compile my own. [03:52] I _think_ the answer is 'yes', but you can always just build the modules from drm master, anyway. [03:54] no [03:54] last i heard only intwl got merged because the radeon one uses ttm [03:54] intel* [04:12] Oh, yeah. That's right. [04:14] Ah. [04:14] I'm wondering when radeon will get it, then. [04:14] I'm going to upgrade to Jaunty now. Anything I should know before I do it? [04:14] (it's more of a curiosity than a "want it to come sooner" thing). [04:18] I've heard .30 or .31 bandied about. [04:18] Can't say I know what the current version is, actually. [04:19] Timespan would be more helpful. =þ Thanks. [04:27] Is EXA more stable with Xserver 1.6? [04:30] Lovely quit message there. [04:34] ripps: Has it been unstable? It's (generally) a bit faster with 1.6, yes. [04:34] I tend to get freezing with my radeon driver with exa [04:34] RAOF: * [04:34] ripps: But I think that pretty much all EXA crashes are the driver's fault (I've not had any problems with nouveau, for example), and so the Xserver version doesn't have much to do with it. [04:35] So, things shouldn't change much :/ [04:35] Pretty much. [04:36] At least you don't have an Intel card :( [04:36] * DanaG has RV635. [04:37] I'm thinking of getting an nvidia card, but my system is so old that I just need to upgrade the whole thing. (Unfortunately, I don't have any money to do so) [04:37] Try looking at OEM systems. [04:37] Well, at least for me, if I had to go desktop again, I'd get an OEM one, rather than building my own. [04:37] Going OEM gets you one big thing: warranty all from one place. [04:39] Still doesn't solve the lack of money issue :( === bluesmoke_ is now known as Amaranth [06:18] Oh yeah, I hope the radeon driver gets better power management. [06:18] That's actually a bigger deal to me than the lack of 3D support. [06:18] ... because drawing 30 watts on battery is Not Cool. [06:31] heh, no matter how many times I try changing my theme, I always come back to my orange Nodoka-based theme. [06:32] ... sometimes with slight tweaking of that orange color. === DanaG1 is now known as DanaG === MTecknology is now known as mteck-mobile === DreamThi1f is now known as DreamThief [07:14] hello [07:47] moin [08:12] Does Jaunty presently show a GNOME menu item System > Control Center? === MTeck is now known as MTecknology [08:18] bullgard4: no, not for me. [08:19] andersk: Thank you for your information. [09:33] much new on the home front ? will there be support for ati- hdmi video support?? [09:58] howdy! [10:07] whenever I click on the calendar applet, the whole gnome panel goes into freeze and the applet cannot be closed. is there any known workaround? [10:09] Q-FUNK: 'killall gnome-panel' [10:09] RAOF_: how would I issue the command, without a terminal open? [10:09] By using gnome-do, of course! [10:10] ?! [10:10] Alternatively, from a VT. [10:10] you mean Alt-F2 ? [10:10] Ctrl+Alt-F1; log in, killall gnome-panel [10:10] No, I mean gnome-do. Check it out :) [10:11] it did something nasty to gtk2 [10:11] now, all apps have blank window conetnet [10:13] All white? Using nvidia, and compiz? [10:13] All _new_ windows actually have contents? :) [10:14] using intel and compiz [10:14] yes, white [10:14] it came back after switchign back and forth between vcons and X [10:17] is the issue with the time/date/calendar issue already known? [10:47] hHheEelLlpPp!!! mMmyYy kKkeEeyYybBboOoaARaRdDRd iIisSs bBbrRroOokKkeEenNn [10:48] iIimMm nNOnOotTt dDdoOoiIinNngGg tThHiIthisSs [10:49] ripps: what did you do before this started happening? [10:49] jJjuUusStTst uUupPpgGgrRraAadDdeEedDd [10:50] missed one [10:50] ripps: perhaps try looking in System > Preferences > Keyboard if you're using Gnome, and see if anything looks strange? [10:50] sStTst should be sSstTt [10:51] ripps: I am fully upgraded, and see nothing like that. [10:51] cwillu: shouldn't assume he's making it up... I've seen similar things before [10:51] eEevVveEerRryYytThHthiIinNngGg nNnoOorRrmMmaAalLl iIinNn >>>kKkeEeyYybBObOoaAarRrdDd [10:51] ripps, indeed [10:52] ripps: does it still happen if you hit ctrl + alt + f1 and type on a regular terminal? [10:52] cCcoOonNnsSsoOolLleEe nNnoOotTt eEefFffFfeEecCctTteEedDd [10:53] ripps, then "sudo apt-get install irssi", and then "irssi", then "/server irc.freenode.net" then "/join #ubuntu" [10:53] ripps: all X apps are though? [10:54] dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg-input-kbd or xserver-xorg-input-evdev might fix it after a restart of X? [10:55] (not sure if Ubuntu is still using -input-kbd?) [10:58] i think he was fooling us :/ [10:58] I FIXED IT! [10:59] I had a "AllowEmptyInput" "True" in my xorg.conf [11:00] Oh, speaking of, what is that new GUI tool for configuring options of Xorg? [11:05] gnome-display-properties? [11:06] No... its something like XorgConfigEditor-gtk ... it might not be in the repos yet though, idk [11:25] not displayconfig-gtk either presumably [11:26] xorg-options-editor-gtk [12:08] crdlb: yeah that [12:13] Anyone else getting spurious conffile prompting re checkbox? [12:21] maxb, yay [12:26] maxb: it asked two questions, yes... just hit 'y' and enter... [12:26] My point being that it should not have asked [12:26] maxb: something in the configs changed, but unless you manually edited something, always hit y [12:26] maxb: why not? you'd rather it replace your customizations? [12:26] fde: I do understand the concept of conffiles quite thoroughly [12:27] I'm pointing out that I believe there's a bug in the package maintainer scripts causes false prompting [12:27] * fde would by thoroughly annoyed if apt went around randomly removing his conffile edits [12:27] maxb: no [12:28] fde would also be thoroughly annoyed if apt prompted him every time a conffile he had not edited, changed [12:28] maxb: remove ucf then? [12:29] (or maybe there is a way to set it to always override if the file hasn't changed? I haven't delved into it) [12:29] but why is it asking if the file hasn't changed? [12:30] It definitely has changed... but its due to a change in the packages default rather than user configuration... [12:31] I guess its mostly to say "do you like the old way, or would you like this new way?" [12:31] I meant the original file [12:31] The file changed between the two package versions [12:32] the installed /etc file hasn't been modified by the user, so installing the next config file without complaints would seem to be appropriate, at least to me [12:32] maxb, I agree. The checkbox config I had was the one installed originally by the package. I did not change it in any way, and I still got asked for [12:33] I really don't need to be informed about how the line breaking in some explanatory comments in a config file has been updated, thanks [13:02] ppl who r using jaunty can anyone pls tell whether the buggy archive mounter has been fixed? in intrepid if i mount isos using it then the files all have a ;1 after their names and this renders [13:03] them completely useless . pls anyone on the latest release can confirm what is the situation in jaunty? as this is a really annoying bug [13:03] and makes iso usage really very painful [13:06] wow, it's a good thing I didn't just spend time trying to duplicate his problem [13:35] I was rather surprised at lunch today to discover our canteen has started stocking "Ubuntu Cola" [13:36] lol [13:36] where r u? [13:36] London [13:38] free? [13:40] Well, as in Fairtrade [14:18] cwillu: well, if you did, you could at least file bugs [14:19] fde, wasn't able to dupe it on my intrepid box, and I'm not in front of my jaunty machine right now [14:19] more specifically, I get nautilus crashes on intrepid, which is probably due to some other muckery I did on gvfs [14:20] I do recall something about that though, I'd be very surprised if there wasn't a bug filed already [14:42] Is there any way to install nvidia-glx-180 and nvidia-glx-180-dev without removing the entire xorg server? [14:44] guud afternoon everyone [14:44] is hibernate broken again? [14:44] jpedroza: This should not be a problem if you are using current jaunty [14:44] p, li { white-space: pre-wrap; } > Gostava de falar contigo sobre os Hands-on, quando é que podes?

I am under kubuntu. [14:51] intrepid-something, anyway [14:51] adept?

[14:52] maxb: UM will upgrade his repos [14:52] if not, then it's a bug on UM [14:53] BUGabundo: well, yeah, but I'm not convinced he ought to be on jaunty! :-) [14:53] BUGabundo: update-manager: command not found [14:53] ahh ok maxb [14:53] I was under the idea jpedroza wanted to be on jaunty [14:54] maxb: If my apt sources are fragged, it is because of the update process to Jaunty. I performed the dist upgrade as outlined at kubuntu.org [14:54] erm, really? Well, yes, they're pretty nonsensical [14:55] maxb: I had assumed that it would remove the old repos, like a good upgrade... [14:55] update-manager does [14:55] Don't know about kubuntu [14:59] jaunty stable enough to use for a main desktop machine? [15:00] no [15:00] thanks [15:00] duh [15:00] it's truth [15:00] someone who asks that and then leaves SHOULD NOT be usign it anyway [15:03] Don't be so absolute :) I believe that sometimes, whining results in massive hysteria and usually in bug fixing :P [15:03] I mean the whining of such people [15:08] * fde thinks the topic of this channel should be "if you have to ask, don't install development software" ... nothing more, nothing less... [15:08] * BUGabundo nods and agrees with fde [15:09] still we should mention that stable versions get their help on #ubuntu [15:09] "If you have to ask, go back to #ubuntu" ? :P [15:10] that sort of insults the interest of new users [15:10] eheheheheheheh [15:10] (that's what I was going to say first anyways, but it looked kinda rude) [15:10] yes, because heaven forbid anyone should want to learn more than they know about pre-repease FOSS software and operating systems. [15:10] savvas: if they are so unsure, they should only test betas [15:10] I know the more the merrier [15:10] but then we get [15:11] savvas: Not entirely sure that's a bad thing... obviously if they are that interested, they ought to know what this channel is about. [15:11] well, I wouldn't suggest to test it as a main desktop operating system, but perhaps as a virtual machine [15:11] users complaining it empty their drive, when they choose the wrong option [15:11] savvas: if user is going to run VM, then they don't ask this [15:13] true, but "If you have to ask..." means "If you have to ask any questions regarding anything" :) [15:13] ah, I won't debate about it, everyone has their own opinion [15:13] sure [15:14] I'll help any new or previous users anyway [15:14] spent yesterday afternoon debuging an laptop [15:14] and it seems it will take today too [15:14] savvas: well, pretty much, if its not related to confirming bugs and the like, why is it even in here? this isn't really about user support. [15:16] I can't disagree to that [15:39] is there a channel for wubi?

[16:39] both [16:39] doesnt work on either [16:40] compiz atm though, and yeah i checked the shortcuts [16:40] 'cause compiz has it own set of shortcuts [16:40] yeah but Ive always opened a terminal with alt-f1 even with compiz [16:41] on gnome alt-f1 is set to the menu [16:42] yeah by default [16:42] but thats set in the keyboard shortcuts [16:42] yep [16:42] for metacity [16:42] um [16:43] Adys: install tilda ;) === kuaera___ is now known as kuaera === elpargo_ is now known as elpargo [17:23] ok jaunty on this laptop kicks ass [17:23] I love it and I use to hate linux [17:24] what laptop?

[18:14] and lastly, are the new volume controls going to come back at some point? [18:14] no [18:14] the new volume control was a regression, effectively [18:14] tretle: NO [18:14] since it didnt allow adjusting individual channels like the old one, and it required pulseaudio [18:15] some canonical client didn't like it, and asked Desktop team to remove it [18:15] lol, couldnt they just fix it? [18:15] seriously? [18:15] not in time [18:15] the ball's been kicked back up to gnome [18:16] probably with a note to not remove so many features at once :P [18:16] BUGabundo: I'm guessing Dell :P [18:16] so hopefully jaunty+1 will include packagekit, volume control and new upstart replacement?

[18:16] nothing is replacing upstart [18:16] Amaranth: no idea. ask audio guys or desktop team [18:16] tretle: jaunty includes kpackagekit [18:16] not for gnome [18:16] tretle: see if there are specs for it, if not, open new ones [18:16] right [18:16] kde has made the move already [18:17] we've actually got *both* kpackagekit and adept in kubuntu right now [18:17] i think they're still indecisive... [18:17] packagekit is still a regression from what we have now in ubuntu [18:17] dont agree there [18:17] it makes developers jobs easier [18:17] Amaranth: really? why? [18:18] last time I checked it wasn't as nice as gnome-app-install and didn't support all apt/dpkg features needed [18:18] codec installation without the need for app specific code is brilliant, also new plugins like the anjuta project manager one will be great. [18:18] and to work as effectively as gnome-app-install it seems to need a modification to packages [18:18] or at least to package metadata [18:45] So, why does synaptic want to install python3, but aptitude not? :-/ [18:46] It's a little discomforting when what you get as a result of an update depends on which tool you use [18:47] should check update-manager === rep-eat is now known as repete [18:56] getting an error trying to install gstreamer-bad-multiverse [18:56] gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse: [18:56] Depends: libmjpegtools0c2a (>=1:1.8.0) but it is not installable [18:56] Depends: libx264-59 (>=1:0.svn20080408) but it is not installable [18:57] tretle, u need to install libx264-59 from intrepid's repo [18:57]
