| Hobbsee | linuxgeek_: boot into recovery mode, select "repair X" | 00:03 |
| linuxgeek_ | ok | 00:03 |
| Hobbsee | linuxgeek_: and you don't need to repeat every *minute* | 00:03 |
| linuxgeek_ | kk | 00:04 |
| josh-l | so here is my request :) http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/Avant+%%5BREQUEST!%%5D?action=content&content=101283 | 00:04 |
| linuxgeek_ | what command is it to reboot | 00:04 |
| maco | linux1: you stop repeating yourself | 00:04 |
| maco | reboot | 00:04 |
| linuxgeek_ | kk | 00:04 |
| maco | bah | 00:04 |
| maco | that was at you | 00:04 |
| Hobbsee | linuxgeek_: if you don't know hwo to reboot via command line, you *probably* shouldn't be running jaunty... | 00:05 |
| Hobbsee | ditto about booting into recovery mode | 00:05 |
| maco | at least not on real hardware | 00:05 |
| maco | or be using that nick... | 00:05 |
| dtchen_ | Hobbsee: actually, that usage of Breaks seems to be correct | 00:05 |
| Hobbsee | hah. that too | 00:05 |
| linuxgeek_ | haha....dude i forgot the command because i got used to the gui | 00:05 |
| dtchen_ | maco: was that error from apt-get or aptitude? | 00:06 |
| maco | dtchen_: aptitude | 00:06 |
| dtchen_ | mm. | 00:06 |
| Hobbsee | dtchen_: ah, OK. Yeah, it looked OK, but I presume there's a missing C&R on libavcodec52 with libavcodec51? | 00:06 |
| linuxgeek_ | ok heres one for ya....jaunty wont reboot | 00:07 |
| linuxgeek_ | ?? | 00:07 |
| linuxgeek_ | why?? | 00:07 |
| Hobbsee | because you didn't sudo it. | 00:07 |
| linuxgeek_ | fine | 00:07 |
| Hobbsee | when it told you only root could reboot | 00:07 |
| dtchen_ | Hobbsee: but they don't share any files | 00:07 |
| Hobbsee | dtchen_: oh, don't they? I'm on a half upgraded system with no devscripts :( | 00:08 |
| Hobbsee | it should definetly be a missing conflicts, though. This is the section that confuses me every time. | 00:08 |
| dtchen_ | Hobbsee: yes, missing Conflicts | 00:09 |
| Hobbsee | dtchen_: right. I'll fix it, then | 00:09 |
| linuxgeek_ | guys now jaunty got stuck and basicly died | 00:11 |
| Hobbsee | linuxgeek_: then install intrepid again. | 00:11 |
| Hobbsee | because clearly you aren't going to be able to help with testing | 00:11 |
| linuxgeek_ | great...so now i have to download the 8.10 iso file...that took all day long????!!!!!!! | 00:13 |

| maco | hello scooby | 00:27 |
| bruce89 | oops, I got a message from the person who pushed linuxgeek_ into Jaunty | 00:27 |
| dtchen_ | sounds like a great idea. i'll just run that over sound/ | 00:28 |
| _r00t- | does anyone have problem with X in latest jaunty ? | 00:28 |
| bruce89 | apparently, it was only a VM | 00:29 |
| dtchen_ | Cycom: did you file a bug for your headphone jack issue? if you haven't, please do. the kernel team is using SRU policy, so i can't in good faith request a pull from my tree without a corresponding launchpad bug # | 00:33 |
| dtchen_ | Cycom: please do that and tell me the bug #; thanks | 00:33 |
| tretle | is there some way of removing the crux and glider themes from jaunty now? | 00:33 |
| maco | bruce89: no need to say "help help!" then is there? | 00:34 |
| bruce89 | well, that's the point | 00:34 |
| jscinoz | hi | 00:42 |
| jscinoz | with a recent upgrade (yesterday) sudo broke | 00:42 |
| humbolt | The new GDM theme is an embarrassment! Totally unprofessional appearance. Let us please get something else and not look stupid. I have proposed a very very nice alternative here http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/18286 and here http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/18143/ . Very unique and beautiful! Please vote on it, if you like it. | 00:43 |
| SeveredCross | Anyone know if conky is working? | 00:43 |
| jscinoz | upon typing the correct password, sudo exits without running the command specified | 00:43 |
| jscinoz | same with gksu | 00:43 |
| SeveredCross | Even with the default conkyrc, nothing happens. | 00:43 |
| jscinoz | luckily i still have root as i enabled a public key login for root over ssh (so i can ssh root@localhost) | 00:43 |
| jscinoz | any ideas how i can fix sudo? | 00:43 |
| bruce89 | humbolt: can't please everyone, I'm not a huge fan either | 00:44 |
| Hobbsee | humbolt: too late - and lots of people do think it's nice, fwiw | 00:44 |
| crdlb | I like how it ties in with the bootsplash | 00:45 |
| jscinoz | humbolt: newwave is actually packaged for jaunty i believe. | 00:45 |
| crdlb | and due to its minimalism, it doesn't really clash with any desktop themes | 00:45 |
| humbolt | Hobbsee: It is not a good fit, as it is very controverse 50:50, see the voting on Brainstrom. For that reason alone it needs to be replaced. 50% unhappy folks is too much and I am certain one with a higher approval rating can be found. | 00:46 |
| crdlb | brainstorm is not an accurate representation of ubuntu users :) | 00:46 |
| Hobbsee | humbolt: everyone is never happy with artwork. And those on brainstorm are not necessarily representative. | 00:46 |
| Hobbsee | and besides all that, we're frozen for beta now | 00:46 |
| jscinoz | humbolt: and i also believe that wall-light cant be implemented due to some limitations in the current gtk engines | 00:46 |
| Hobbsee | just like the forum users aren't (thankfully!) | 00:46 |
| humbolt | crdlb: an accurate representation of the ones who care. | 00:46 |
| bazhang | humbolt, please dont spam that in #ubuntu ; #ubuntu-offtopic for that please | 00:47 |
| jscinoz | or at least it cant be implemented exactly as in the mockups | 00:47 |
| bruce89 | brainstorm is a waste of time | 00:47 |
| jscinoz | i know that someone made something similar to it though | 00:47 |
| humbolt | Hobbsee: still a very bad decision. You have the Ubuntu world divided like Bush and Gore did. Not good, not good at all. | 00:47 |
| jscinoz | also humbolt what about the dust theme? | 00:47 |
| Hobbsee | what is it with troll days today? | 00:48 |
| crdlb | jscinoz: with graphical gdm themes, you can do pretty much anything, can't you? | 00:48 |
| humbolt | jscinoz: no idea show me | 00:48 |
| Hobbsee | humbolt: people vehemently disagree with the artwork *every* release. It doesn't seem to have been a problem so far | 00:48 |
| jscinoz | crdlb: oh i thought we were talking about the gtk theme | 00:48 |
| jscinoz | humbolt: one sec | 00:48 |
| crdlb | oh, I didn't scroll down :) | 00:48 |
| bruce89 | well, with this one there is disagreement with notify-osd too | 00:49 |
| jscinoz | humbolt: | 00:49 |
| jscinoz | humbolt: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/DustTheme | 00:49 |
| jscinoz | sorry link didnt paste first time >_< | 00:49 |
| humbolt | Hobbsee: just this one is really really far from professional. That's the work of a first grader. Ask anybody who has an art degree. | 00:49 |
| Hobbsee | bruce89: yeah. Oddly enough, gdm isn't the one that seems to get the most complaints. | 00:49 |
| * Hobbsee hears deja vu | 00:49 | |
| humbolt | Hobbsee: a black screen basically. pff | 00:49 |
| Hobbsee | humbolt: take your trolling elsewhere, please. | 00:50 |
| bruce89 | and preferably not #ubuntu | 00:50 |
| humbolt | Hobbsee: ok, just wanted you guys to be aware of this "solution" on brainstorm | 00:50 |
| * hggdh thinks the theme is cool | 00:50 | |
| Hobbsee | humbolt: the developers do look at brainstorm from time to time. | 00:50 |
| Hobbsee | so, thanks, but people are aware regardless. | 00:51 |
| bruce89 | but usually the "ideas" there are impossible | 00:51 |
| bruce89 | or just wrong | 00:51 |
| Hobbsee | bruce89: heck yes. | 00:51 |
| jscinoz | humbolt: see the gnome-themes-ubuntu package, it contains new wave, dust and dust-sand | 00:51 |
| bruce89 | I suspect brainstorm's purpose is to make people think they have an input on the process | 00:52 |
| bruce89 | doesn't stop them moaning mind | 00:52 |
| Hobbsee | well, sometimes they do. But i'm sure this is OT. | 00:52 |
| bruce89 | I know, I'll shut up | 00:53 |
| DaSkreech | Hallo | 00:54 |
| DaSkreech | Upgrade killed my network card | 00:54 |
| DaSkreech | Any idea on how to fix it? | 00:54 |
| Hobbsee | defenestrate it? | 00:55 |
| Hobbsee | (which one, for a start) | 00:55 |
| DaSkreech | well it's castrated right now >_> | 00:55 |
| DaSkreech | I was getting an eth0:avahi with a 169 address | 00:56 |
| DaSkreech | which I figured wasn't right so I removed avahi-ipups (I think) | 00:56 |
| DaSkreech | Which gave me back a pure eth0 | 00:57 |
| DaSkreech | which can't see the network or be assigned ip addresses | 00:57 |
| * fakebruce89 wished there was a #ubuntu-rant | 00:57 | |
| jscinoz | so yeah | 00:57 |
| jscinoz | sudo is broken :( | 00:57 |
| DaSkreech | Setting a route also throws a SIOCTRL error | 00:57 |
| Hobbsee | fakebruce89: +m'd? That sounds like fun! | 00:57 |
| DaSkreech | Booting up into a Live CD also cannot see the network | 00:57 |
| Hobbsee | DaSkreech: atheros, or? | 00:58 |
| DaSkreech | Umm | 00:58 |
| DaSkreech | not sure | 00:58 |

| Hobbsee | DaSkreech: hm. Don't know then | 01:04 |
| DaSkreech | Anyone knows if I can test if the card (controller really) is any good | 01:05 |
| Vorbote | DaSkreech: Hmmm... If the kernel can see the network interface and load the driver, yet there is no chat with the outside world, I would check the the BIOS settings and the cabling before declaring it dead. | 01:09 |
| DaSkreech | Vorbote: BIOS settings? | 01:10 |
| DaSkreech | hmm | 01:10 |
| DaSkreech | ok | 01:10 |
| DaSkreech | Vorbote: Swapped over the cable to a new machine and it works | 01:10 |
| shade34321 | so i'm having a bit of a problem with my sound......it's working because whenever somebody signs in or out pidgin plays a sound for me....yet when i went to youtube and tried playing a sound it didnt work....any ideas? | 01:11 |
| Vorbote | Yes, those VIA Rhine II chipsets are/were very common in cheap integrated mobos made earlier this decade. You can turne them off and on in the BIOS. | 01:11 |

| DaSkreech | It fried my network card it looks like :( | 01:46 |
| crdlb | DaSkreech: what makes you think it's physically broken? | 01:51 |
| DaSkreech | crdlb: I don't know that it is | 01:51 |
| DaSkreech | but I can't see anything from it regardless of connection or OS | 01:51 |
| crdlb | oh :/ | 01:52 |
| DaSkreech | Or to be more specific it can't be assigned an ip address it seems | 01:52 |
| * DaSkreech isn't that great with assigning ipv6 addresses from cli so I don't know if that works | 01:52 | |
| keithclark | DaSkreech, I had the same problem with a laptop card and it was indeed dead. | 01:53 |
| DaSkreech | damn it | 01:54 |
| DaSkreech | >_> | 01:54 |
| DaSkreech | This machine has had a week of failures each cascading into each other | 01:54 |
| keithclark | My card would see networks but never connect. | 01:54 |
| keithclark | No matter the os | 01:54 |
| DaSkreech | Vorbote: Nope seems dead | 01:54 |
| Vorbote | DaSkreech: It probably is dead. It happened to me recently with an el cheapo D-Link card using a Via Rhine III chipset. | 01:55 |
| DaSkreech | ok | 01:56 |
| DaSkreech | Soooo | 01:56 |
| DaSkreech | second question | 01:56 |
| DaSkreech | If I take out the drive and put it in another machine will the initrd prevent me from booting? | 01:56 |
| DaSkreech | Anyone ? :) | 01:59 |

| keithclark | rolling upgrades are no different | 02:08 |
| DanaG | The Fedora 11 alpha... WON'T EVEN INSTALL | 02:08 |
| keithclark | I tried pclos and it was the same | 02:08 |
| DanaG | I've been trying for TWO DAYS to get a working F11 partition... but nope, every single install or upgrade route... doesn't work! | 02:08 |
| xang | I love the Fedora thinking and mission..just can't ever get used to the Fedora spins. | 02:08 |
| xang | Just loaded 10 a few days ago...just not that impressed. | 02:09 |
| xang | Jaunty however, has been running pretty well. | 02:09 |
| DanaG | I can't even get the damned rawhide to install. | 02:09 |
| keithclark | Well, it's the last alpha, so it should be good. | 02:09 |
| sebsebseb | 02:10 | |
| sebsebseb | hummmmm | 02:10 |
| sebsebseb | so upgraded my Ibex to Jaunty tonight, but | 02:10 |
| bruce89 | yes? | 02:12 |
| keithclark | and? | 02:12 |
| sebsebseb | for a start what idiots removing log out and shut down from the menu, because it's on that other stupid thing. Which resulted in me being pissed off, adding log out buttons to the panel and shut down, and not being happy where I put them. and then noticing that my panels were all weird now, because it woudn't even show what windows I had open in the usal place. So I add this and that to the panels, | 02:12 |
| sebsebseb | and my panels are horrible now. | 02:12 |
| sebsebseb | so I am wondering if there's a way that I can get a more default Gnome look again | 02:12 |
| sebsebseb | for my panels | 02:12 |
| DaSkreech | Keep ibex? | 02:12 |
| xang | right click on panel and select "add to panel" | 02:13 |
| xang | log out button ? | 02:13 |
| sebsebseb | I am on the verge of thinking screw menus, just use the terminal as much as possible | 02:13 |
| xang | :) | 02:13 |
| sebsebseb | that's something else | 02:13 |
| sebsebseb | ctrl alt backspace | 02:13 |
| sebsebseb | no longer works | 02:13 |
| DaSkreech | sebsebseb: yeah X choice that ubuntu respected | 02:13 |
| keithclark | ok, remember, alpha | 02:14 |
| DanaG | I like the SuSE way: | 02:14 |
| bruce89 | sebsebseb: heh | 02:14 |
| DaSkreech | but I think they didn't have an option to turn it back on | 02:14 |
| DanaG | ctrl-alt-backspace TWICE kills Xorg. | 02:14 |
| sebsebseb | DanaG: what's that? | 02:14 |
| sebsebseb | uh wrong one | 02:14 |
| DaSkreech | keithclark: no that's supposed to happen | 02:14 |
| bruce89 | sebsebseb: upstream removed cab | 02:14 |
| Vorbote | sudo /usr/share/screen-resolution-extra/policy-dontzap.py --disable fixes that particular detail. | 02:14 |
| sebsebseb | DaSkreech: what was that? | 02:14 |
| DaSkreech | DanaG: Yeah But far as I know Ubuntu said no to that | 02:14 |

| xang | Option "DontZap" "off" | 02:15 |
| xang | in xorg.conf | 02:15 |
| sebsebseb | I replaced two files on upgrade with newer versions, it asked if I wanted to. I guess no big deal stuff | 02:15 |
| crdlb | or use the dontzap command | 02:15 |
| xang | right. | 02:15 |
| keithclark | Alpha=Experiment | 02:15 |

| sebsebseb | keithclark: yes, but my panel issue is probably not a bug | 02:15 |
| keithclark | sebsebseb, not a bug.....trial | 02:15 |
| keithclark | bugs are for beta | 02:16 |
| DaSkreech | keithclark: you are really mixing this up :) | 02:16 |
| Vorbote | In fact it is a bug due to changed settings schemas in gnome-panel. | 02:16 |
| keithclark | Ok, I will hold back. | 02:16 |
| DaSkreech | crdlb: There is a don'tzap command ? | 02:16 |

| DaSkreech | sebsebseb: rename | 02:16 |
| DaSkreech | you'll be thankful later | 02:17 |
| sebsebseb | DaSkreech: I just want my panels to be default again | 02:17 |
| sebsebseb | DaSkreech: I have customized them to much now, that it's a big mess | 02:17 |
| DaSkreech | I know I'm really annoyed I can't logout with the keyboard | 02:17 |
| DaSkreech | it's messes with me | 02:17 |

| DaSkreech | !zap | 02:18 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about zap | 02:18 |
| sebsebseb | my name and log options and stuff | 02:18 |
| DaSkreech | !dontzap | 02:18 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about dontzap | 02:18 |
| DaSkreech | xang: Needs a factoid | 02:18 |
| DaSkreech | bruce89: bug for what ? | 02:18 |
| bruce89 | DaSkreech: the logout menu | 02:19 |
| Vorbote | a gconftool-2 --recursive-unset '/apps/panel" and deleting ~/.gnome2/panel.d will reset the panels to the defaults. | 02:19 |
| sebsebseb | why has KDE4 gone well weird? I got like a background and I could right click on desktop for some options, and I also had something on the top right for options | 02:19 |
| sebsebseb | no panel showing KDE4 anymore | 02:19 |
| DaSkreech | bruce89: I don't use Gnome so it really doesn't matter to me and I won't be able to follow up | 02:19 |
| sebsebseb | I got KDE 4.2 in Ibex with the ppa or whatever, so anything to do with it? | 02:19 |
| DaSkreech | sebsebseb: Might want to poke someone in #kubuntu-devel | 02:20 |
| keithclark | Am I missing something here? Alpha is for testing things out. Beta is for bug testing. Then Release Candidates, then Releases. Maybe I'm confused. | 02:20 |
| Vorbote | and make sure to use the right matching quotes, don't cut and paste my example... | 02:20 |
| DaSkreech | They may want to know what issues peopel with ppa are having going to jackalope | 02:20 |
| sebsebseb | DaSkreech: your saying what happended to my KDE4 is not normal? | 02:20 |
| DaSkreech | keithclark: Kinda but this is like a rolling release for 27,000 packages | 02:20 |
| keithclark | got you. | 02:20 |
| DaSkreech | keithclark: so look at it in layers | 02:21 |
| DaSkreech | LTS is releases | 02:21 |
| keithclark | understood | 02:21 |
| DaSkreech | stuff inbetween is like alphas betas and release candidates | 02:21 |
| DaSkreech | which also have alphas betas and release candidates | 02:21 |
| sebsebseb | LTS is long term supourt releasese 3 years of suppourt on the desktop. ther other final realeses are 180 months suppourt | 02:21 |
| sebsebseb | !lts | 02:21 |
| ubottu | LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. | 02:21 |
| xang | !dontzap | 02:22 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about dontzap | 02:22 |
| sebsebseb | standard releases are only suppourted for 180 months | 02:22 |
| xang | !dontzap is sudo dontzap --disable | 02:22 |
| DaSkreech | xang: Ugh please make it more verbose | 02:23 |
| xang | haha. | 02:23 |
| keithclark | I think I have it clear now, thanks. | 02:23 |
| xang | !dontzap is used to enable ctrl-alt-backspace. Simply use the command: sudo dontzap --disable | 02:23 |
| DaSkreech | keithclark: so while a new release may come out mostly stable and tested teh features they put can be revoked later on as not quite ready or suitable | 02:23 |
| xang | DaSkreech: better? :) | 02:24 |
| DaSkreech | keithclark: Right now that's what we are discussing | 02:24 |
| DaSkreech | xang: Much better thanks | 02:24 |
| keithclark | Got it....cool. | 02:24 |
| DaSkreech | that should help on D-Week | 02:24 |
| DanaG | Nice double-negative. | 02:24 |
| DanaG | dontzap..... disable. | 02:24 |
| thiebaude | DaSkreech: some features might not make it into final | 02:24 |
| keithclark | Well, I shall see how the latest alpha interacts with my machine in about an hour. | 02:25 |
| DaSkreech | DanaG: feel free to right one for !zap | 02:25 |
| keithclark | Should prove interesting | 02:25 |
| DaSkreech | thiebaude: I know | 02:25 |
| thiebaude | its going to be exciting | 02:25 |
| DaSkreech | thiebaude: The joy of hectic cycles :) | 02:25 |
| DaSkreech | thiebaude: Every single release :) | 02:25 |
| Vorbote | "sudo /usr/share/screen-resolution-extra/policy-dontzap.py --disable" There is no user end command as of now, yet. | 02:26 |
| thiebaude | they better hope they get the intel bug squashed by final | 02:26 |
| DanaG | sudo dontzap --disable | 02:26 |
| xang | dontzap is in the repos. | 02:27 |
| DanaG | What are they thinking people should do if Xorg locks up NOW? | 02:27 |
| sebsebseb | stupid grey default new look for Ubuntu's panels. the old look was better | 02:27 |
| DanaG | Hard-reboot? | 02:27 |
| sebsebseb | also the proper Human theme has gone bye bye? | 02:27 |
| DanaG | =þ | 02:27 |
| DaSkreech | DanaG: They will have a graphical tool to fix it | 02:27 |
| DaSkreech | as I understand the plan | 02:27 |
| DanaG | Doesn't help you the first time Xorg locks up. | 02:28 |
| DanaG | =þ | 02:28 |
| sebsebseb | and that new gdm theme no thanks, I hate black on computers, except for text basicalley. I use blubuntu as my gdm :) | 02:28 |
| thiebaude | i cant wait, because i have an i815 chip | 02:28 |
| bruce89 | sebsebseb: good riddance to Human, it is evil | 02:28 |
| sebsebseb | I wonder what 9.04 will be like | 02:28 |
| Vorbote | But not in the meta-packages. That's FAIL in my book. | 02:28 |
| sebsebseb | I am not putting my expections up to high | 02:29 |
| DaSkreech | HUmans are inherently evil | 02:29 |
| DaSkreech | and inherently good | 02:29 |
| sebsebseb | I might even distro change if 9.04 isn't that great | 02:29 |
| DaSkreech | It's a great paradox | 02:29 |
| sebsebseb | and I used Ubuntu since second release as my host | 02:29 |
| DaSkreech | DanaG: Don't ask me I hate X | 02:29 |
| * DanaG now has zero closed-source hardware. =þ | 02:29 | |
| DanaG | wifi card is Intel, and video is ATI. | 02:29 |
| DaSkreech | DanaG: You have OpenBIOs? | 02:29 |
| sebsebseb | where are the files that control the panel? | 02:30 |
| DanaG | To be more correct, I mean, I don't use any binary drivers for any of my hardware. | 02:30 |
| DanaG | vboxdrv is my only "tainting" thing now. | 02:30 |
| DaSkreech | DanaG: WHy don't you just run Gnewsense? | 02:30 |
| DanaG | Can't say I know what that is. | 02:30 |
| DaSkreech | ha ha | 02:30 |
| DaSkreech | !gnewsense | 02:31 |
| ubottu | gNewSense is a GNU/Linux distribution based off Ubuntu with the aim of containing only free software. The Website is http://www.gnewsense.org - Support in #gnewsense, NOT #ubuntu | 02:31 |
| DanaG | I do still use non-free things like libdvdcss, though. | 02:31 |
| keithclark | In Linux does it matter to the speed of a program if you leave it highlighted? | 02:31 |
| DaSkreech | keithclark: What? | 02:31 |
| DanaG | focused, you mean? | 02:31 |
| DaSkreech | DanaG: Strange line to draw :) | 02:32 |
| keithclark | Ok, I'm upgrading in the background....it says it takes 55 mins. Does it matter if I use other programs? | 02:32 |
| DaSkreech | keithclark: no | 02:32 |
| keithclark | Ah | 02:32 |
| DanaG | I'd be using fglrx if it weren't just plain BROKEN, though. | 02:32 |
| bazhang | !resetpanels | 02:32 |
| ubottu | To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 02:32 |
| DaSkreech | basically anything faster than a PIII will be inconsequential in time difference | 02:32 |

| DanaG | NOT FIXED. | 02:32 |
| keithclark | Your current program does not get priority? | 02:33 |
| DaSkreech | keithclark: it does | 02:33 |
| DaSkreech | but for most programs the user is doing a lot of looking | 02:33 |
| keithclark | DaSkreech, by how much? | 02:33 |
| Vorbote | keithclark: no. But cli programs that output lots of text to a terminal emulation can be slowed down a lot. (There using screen and detaching the ttys can help a lot with speed). | 02:33 |
| DaSkreech | which means that it is not doing anything and the background program is eating the CPU anyway | 02:33 |
| DaSkreech | the only difference is when you want to do something it readily shifs CPU cycles to it | 02:34 |
| DaSkreech | shifts | 02:34 |
| keithclark | like an upgrade | 02:34 |
| keithclark | Chews enormous cycles | 02:34 |
| keithclark | and resources | 02:34 |
| DaSkreech | UNless you are doing heavy processing in the foreground app for the most part it's exactly the same except the background app can't hog the CPU away from your app when you want it | 02:34 |
| DaSkreech | keithclark: that's the background app | 02:35 |
| DaSkreech | what's the foreground | 02:35 |
| keithclark | Web browser | 02:35 |
| keithclark | chating | 02:35 |
| DaSkreech | keithclark: you are fine | 02:35 |
| DaSkreech | those barely use CPU at all | 02:35 |
| keithclark | cool, thanks. | 02:35 |
| * bruce89 has issues with BOINC | 02:36 | |
| keithclark | 38 minutes to try 9.04 out! Should be fun! | 02:36 |
| * DaSkreech tries to ressurect his card | 02:37 | |
| DanaG | fglrx might as well be a swear word. | 02:37 |
| keithclark | DanaG, agreed | 02:37 |
| DaSkreech | fsck it | 02:37 |
| DanaG | But hey, at least Radeon is getting better and bette all the time. | 02:38 |
| keithclark | It works eventually | 02:38 |
| DanaG | And it suspends and resumes basically perfectly reliably on my R600l. | 02:38 |
| DanaG | RV635, more specifically. | 02:38 |
| keithclark | ???????????????????? | 02:38 |
| keithclark | Suspend works? | 02:38 |
| DanaG | nvidia binary was only around 30% reliable when I used it on my old GeForce Go 7600. | 02:38 |
| keithclark | Hybernate???? | 02:38 |
| DanaG | I'm using the git drm modules and git xf86-video-ati. | 02:38 |
| DanaG | I use only S2RAM, usually. | 02:38 |
| DanaG | I just wish it supported power management -- sucking 30 watts on battery is Not Cool. | 02:39 |
| DanaG | 10 watts more than in WinVista. | 02:40 |
| keithclark | DanaG, ok, so you can run vista 3 x's longer, but do you want to? | 02:40 |
| DanaG | I still find myself sticking around in Linux most of the time, though. | 02:41 |
| DanaG | When I resume from suspend in Windows.. my Intel wifi card tends to break. | 02:41 |
| keithclark | I was joking....I understand 100%! | 02:41 |
| keithclark | I'm trying to convert my family here. | 02:41 |
| DanaG | I just fear the high power usage will actually AGE my battery prematurely. | 02:42 |
| keithclark | Yes it will | 02:42 |
| sebsebseb | well with my panels reset | 02:44 |
| sebsebseb | Ubuntu looks a bit better | 02:44 |
| keithclark | cool! | 02:44 |
| sebsebseb | ,but what is this, No Indicators nonsense? apparnatlly something to do with Pidgin and evoloution | 02:44 |
| ripps | How do I remove xfce4? I installed xubuntu-desktop in intrepid, but now, in jaunty, I want to remove it. Removing xubuntu-desktop doesn't seem to do the job. | 02:45 |
| keithclark | oh man....upgrade aborted. | 02:45 |
| keithclark | 25 mins to go. | 02:45 |
| keithclark | I will just have to wait! | 02:45 |
| bruce89 | sebsebseb: remove indicator-applet | 02:45 |
| sebsebseb | what is it though | 02:45 |
| sebsebseb | and how do I remove it? | 02:45 |
| bruce89 | sebsebseb: it's part of Ubuntu's messing up of GNOME | 02:46 |
| ripps | indicator applet replaces the new mail notification icon, and I imagine it'll do the same thing with other programs, probably more in the future. | 02:46 |
| bruce89 | uninstall the package | 02:46 |
| keithclark | I don't think it stopped. | 02:48 |
| dtchen | any brave souls running 64-bit - feel free to try http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~dtchen/ and tell me how it fares with PulseAudio | 02:48 |
| keithclark | I'm stuck on 25 mins to go | 02:49 |
| Halow | I'll try the kernel out in the morning, when I'm free to make threats at my computer without fear of waking anyone up. :) | 02:50 |
| keithclark | Ok, is it closing down? | 02:51 |
| keithclark | Stuck on 25 mins. for 25 mins. | 02:51 |
| keithclark | Ok, maybe I should just abort? | 02:53 |
| keithclark | Ok, what to do here....the 25 min. mark will just not go away | 02:56 |
| keithclark | Ok, thanks | 02:57 |
| Milosz | how can I enable the new notification bubbles? | 02:58 |
| bruce89 | they should be there anyway | 02:58 |
| Milosz | hmm ok then how can I invoke one? | 02:58 |
| Milosz | what apps would produce one? | 02:59 |
| bruce89 | rhythmbox, this IRC client maybe | 02:59 |
| bruce89 | notify-send | 02:59 |
| Halow | Pidgin sure makes a lot of them come up. ;P | 02:59 |
| bruce89 | and Empathy | 03:00 |
| Milosz | doesn't work | 03:00 |
| keithclark | Ok, anyone with why my installation will not go beyond 25% | 03:00 |
| thiebaude | Halow: that would drive me nuts | 03:00 |
| Halow | It does! Thank goodness you can turn it off. | 03:00 |
| fosco_ | Milosz, change sound volume, connect to a network, play something with gnome-mplayer... | 03:00 |
| Milosz | nope | 03:01 |
| sebsebseb | the new IRC client hummmmmmm I gave it a go | 03:01 |
| sebsebseb | ,but it's like wtf | 03:01 |
| sebsebseb | how I put logs on | 03:01 |
| sebsebseb | I'll just use konversation again :D | 03:01 |
| Milosz | it all works just like on 8.10 | 03:01 |
| bruce89 | Milosz: count yourself lucky | 03:01 |
| Milosz | i wanted to evaluate that feature, it's not like i'm just hot on new functionality | 03:01 |

| thiebaude | pop ups like wndows | 03:02 |
| Milosz | i think it's great that the dx team took this not from another OS but developed it as an own idea, but I am not fully sure yet whether the actual implementation is so good | 03:02 |
| * bruce89 thought it was straight from Vista | 03:02 | |
| Milosz | is it? | 03:03 |
| Halow | Nah. In Vista you can still close them. :) | 03:03 |
| Milosz | i don't think so | 03:03 |
| sebsebseb | bruce89: yep | 03:03 |
| Milosz | but I also know nothing about Vista | 03:03 |
| bruce89 | not do I | 03:03 |
| keithclark | does anyone have the same experience with the install stalling at 25 minutes to go? | 03:03 |
| bruce89 | my brother said that it sounded like it though | 03:03 |
| Halow | Used to dual boot with it. It drove me to... explore my options. Thank goodness Ubuntu! | 03:03 |
| Milosz | keithclark, are you sure update-manager didn't show you an error and you didn't see that (modal dialog?) ? | 03:04 |
| keithclark | No error | 03:04 |
| Halow | keithclark: Are you doing a clean install? Or upgrade? | 03:04 |
| bruce89 | try queueing a whole load of notifications and see what happens | 03:04 |
| keithclark | Hard drive still working | 03:04 |
| keithclark | Halow, upgrade | 03:04 |
| Halow | Whoops! | 03:05 |

| Cycom | dtchen: I may have occasion to test your x64 build. I'm installing Jaunty on my primary desktop | 03:23 |
| Cycom | Vista suddenly decided USB didn't want to work, so I'm like "screw it, LINUX TIME!" | 03:24 |
| Cycom | I just have to make sure cedega can run L4D and I'm allll set. | 03:24 |
| * DanaG has R600, and can't use fglrx because it panics. =þ | 03:26 | |
| DanaG | So, no 3D for meeeee. | 03:26 |
| Cycom | bummer. | 03:26 |
| Cycom | ati/radeon driver no workie? | 03:26 |
| DanaG | radeon doesn't do 3D on R600 right now. | 03:27 |
| DanaG | The 2D it does do, it does damn stably, though. | 03:27 |
| dtchen | Cycom: i can start a 32-bit build, but it won't finish for another six hours | 03:30 |
| DanaG | Too bad wine / cedega can't do surround sound. | 03:31 |
| DanaG | It also doesn't play well with PulseAudio. | 03:31 |
| dtchen | that's just a matter of time | 03:31 |
| DanaG | And I do insist on running stuff through PulseAudio. | 03:31 |
| picklesworth | Just had an intereting discovery... | 03:33 |
| picklesworth | my grub's menu.lst had the new kernel versions added, but they were being sorted alphabetically and the default was set rather unintelligently | 03:34 |
| picklesworth | thus it was still booting 2.6.28-9 even though I had -11 installed | 03:34 |
| picklesworth | Removing everything except -10 and -11 solved the issue with least risk posed, but I wonder if that error is widespread? | 03:35 |
| Halow | Oops. | 03:35 |
| Halow | That's strange. | 03:35 |
| picklesworth | (I swear it didn't do that before) | 03:35 |
| Halow | It's never done that to me. | 03:35 |
| picklesworth | Indeed, since booting the new kernel my sound is behaving sensibly, it booted way quicker and I have the new usplash on startup | 03:35 |
| === Ampelbein is now known as ampelbein | ||
| picklesworth | Maybe it's because I tinkered with menu.lst at one point to set nosplash by default | 03:36 |
| picklesworth | Could have confused it | 03:36 |
| picklesworth | Eeek! Crazy Pidgin quits when I close it without a notification area icon. Again rendering the message indicator hopelessly redundant | 03:38 |
| Halow | Ew. It didn't just spawn up the buddy list? That's what happens to me in Intrepid. =/ | 03:39 |
| Cycom | dtchen: go for it. if it finishes, I'll put a netbook up to 9.04 and try it on there. my 1030nr is back to 8.10, but I don't mind upgrading to 9.04 again. | 03:40 |
| dtchen | Cycom: ok, it won't be available until tomorrow night, probably, since i'm away for work. | 03:42 |
| Cycom | no problem :) I'm patient | 03:43 |
| Cycom | ext4 ok for / ? | 03:44 |
| Starcraftmazter | Ever since the updates 1-2 days ago, the sound in all my music files / video files degenerates into static, part way through (the exact time is arbitrary), and playback lags up during the changeover, which is usually a few seconds.

| dtchen | Starcraftmazter: yes, that's pulseaudio. | 03:59 |
| dtchen | if you're running 64-bit, you can test my patches. | 03:59 |

| dtchen | Delvien: no, seriously, reconcile your screenshot with your amixer output. | 04:54 |
| Delvien | hmm | 04:54 |
| DanaG | grr, damned Plymouth. | 04:54 |
| dtchen | o0Chris0o: fresh install or dist-upgrade from intrepid? | 04:55 |
| DanaG | Fancy new bootsplash thing for jaunty+1... doesn't friggin' work. | 04:55 |
| Delvien | now i hear nothing but static | 04:55 |
| o0Chris0o | dtchen: dist-upgrade from intrepid | 04:55 |
| DanaG | Oh yeah, and PulseAudio keeps aborting. aborting. aborting. aborting. aborting. aborting. | 04:55 |
| dtchen | o0Chris0o: 1) make sure PCM and Master are not muted or zero | 04:55 |
| DanaG | over and over. and over. and over. | 04:55 |
| crdlb | DanaG: I guess it's good that's still +2 then ... :) | 04:55 |
| Delvien | haha, i win | 04:56 |
| dtchen | o0Chris0o: 2) make sure your stream isn't set to use the RTP sink. you can use pavucontrol to verify. | 04:56 |
| o0Chris0o | dtchen: alsamixer right? | 04:56 |
| dtchen | o0Chris0o: either way | 04:56 |
| dtchen | DanaG: are you running my kernel? | 04:56 |
| Delvien | it kept resetting what was muted. | 04:56 |
| o0Chris0o | pcm allt he way up? it was on 0 | 04:56 |
| DanaG | I'm running the vanilla 2.6.29 kernels. | 04:56 |
| DanaG | It's just as broken with a custom radeon-KMS kernel, though. | 04:57 |
| dtchen | the vanilla kernel doesn't have the requisite fix for PA | 04:57 |
| o0Chris0o | dtchen: what should the PCM volume bet set as? | 04:57 |
| dtchen | o0Chris0o: 77%-80% at least | 04:58 |
| DanaG | oh yeah, and still missing changelogs in update-manager. | 04:59 |
| dtchen | DanaG: i can't help w/ plymouth at this point, but i can with linux & pulseaudio | 04:59 |
| o0Chris0o | dtchen: ok done, I got some volume....I thought I did this already...hmm | 04:59 |
| DanaG | Hmm, which kernel should I use? | 04:59 |
| o0Chris0o | dtchen: what about surround? center? LFE? | 04:59 |
| dtchen | choose whichever is appropriate from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~dtchen/ | 04:59 |
| dtchen | Cycom: posted at http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~dtchen/ | 05:00 |
| DanaG | I prefer 2.6.29, because it supports things like my HP accelerometer. | 05:01 |
| crdlb | just don't drop it | 05:03 |
| DanaG | Anything else special in that kernel build? | 05:03 |
| d1b | hi what versinos of arm is jaunty compiled for (i note the armel). | 05:05 |
| d1b | version* | 05:05 |
| dtchen | DanaG: it has a few things specifically for audio, nothing else | 05:08 |
| dtchen | i really don't have enough resources to address everyone's pet bugs | 05:08 |
| Delvien | I love the notifications | 05:29 |
| Delvien | -love- them | 05:29 |
| Cycom | man, grub to login in 22 seconds | 05:30 |
| DanaG | zyargh, stupid HAL doesn't know how to deal with eSATA drives. | 05:31 |
| DanaG | It doesn't auto-mount them. | 05:31 |
| Delvien | cycom im getting about 15 on my laptop, 17 on my desktop | 05:38 |
| Cycom | well, it might be faster, I'm just counting in my head | 05:38 |
| Delvien | cycom | 05:38 |
| Delvien | :D | 05:38 |
| * DanaG has about a 30-second boot. | 05:39 | |

| Cycom | haha! guess what the biggest memory hog on my system is right now? | 05:52 |

| jithine | one question. will kubuntu jaunty include kde 4.2.2 when its released on april 1st | 05:58 |
| gnomefreak | jithine: right now version is 4.2.1 i doubt 4.2.2 will make it but im not sure if they got an exception. Most of time kubuntu team PPA's have next release | 06:08 |
| jithine | ok | 06:09 |
| crdlb | don't stable point releases usually get added? | 06:09 |
| crdlb | or is kde misusing the point release? :) | 06:09 |
| === r0bby_ is now known as r0bby | ||
| jithine | kde 4.2.2 has some bug fixes . Currently apps like gewnview cannot open files if the file name or the path contains non english characters | 06:22 |
| jithine | they have fixed it in 4.2.2 | 06:22 |
| jithine | so I think its imprtant to have jauntu to include this release. | 06:24 |
| stefano-palazzo | When i make inkscape full screen and hover over something to get a tool tip, the screen flickers, could somebody try to replicate this before i file a bug? | 06:30 |
| crdlb | stefano-palazzo: you get a flash of the wallpaper? | 06:38 |
| stefano-palazzo | crdlb, hang on, i need to change my wallpaper to check :-) | 06:39 |
| stefano-palazzo | crdlb, yes i do | 06:39 |
| crdlb | it's a side-effect of 'unredirect fullscreen windows' in compiz | 06:40 |
| crdlb | I don't know if it's avoidable | 06:40 |
| stefano-palazzo | mh.. it was never a problem for me, only since jaunty. and i havent changed anything between that other than the upgrade. | 06:41 |
| crdlb | maybe the default value for that setting has changed | 06:41 |
| stefano-palazzo | where would i find that? | 06:43 |
| crdlb | the setting? | 06:43 |
| stefano-palazzo | yes | 06:43 |
| crdlb | ccsm > General Options > General | 06:43 |
| stefano-palazzo | i have compizconfig open, can't find anything about fullscreen | 06:43 |
| === d1g1t is now known as sandeep | ||
| DanaG | wtf... somehow I just lost a whole folder full of music. | 06:49 |
| DanaG | Granted, it was only one album's worth, and I have it somewhere else, but it's still annoying. | 06:49 |
| DanaG | I think it happened when I hit 'delete' to remove it from the playlist in totem. | 06:49 |
| stefano-palazzo | crdlb, i've found it and the problem's fixed, guess my tweaking around had something to do with it | 06:50 |
| Hobbsee | DanaG: er, yes. delete probably does. But did you check trash? | 06:50 |
| crdlb | stefano-palazzo: so turning it off fixed it? | 06:50 |
| DanaG | Not in trash, it seems. | 06:50 |
| stefano-palazzo | crdlb, yes it did. do you know if this is set to true by default? idon't really understand what it does, but turning it off made everything better | 06:51 |
| crdlb | it is | 06:51 |
| stefano-palazzo | so that's a bug then? | 06:51 |
| crdlb | stefano-palazzo: it appears to have been enabled by default in the hardy box I'm sshed into too | 06:53 |
| stefano-palazzo | crdlb,so that means that not the setting itself is a problem, but rather something else i've going on | 06:54 |
| stefano-palazzo | DanaG, i've tried it out, it didn't delete anything here (thank god for that..) are you completely up to date? can you trigger this behaviour? | 06:56 |
| DanaG | It might've been when I was booted into a Fedora install. | 06:56 |
| J-_ | http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/18694/ | 06:56 |
| stefano-palazzo | J-_, i like it the way it is, actually | 06:57 |
| stefano-palazzo | DanaG, this would be a very hard mistake to make when programming as well, deleting files from the hard drive is much more involved than what's supposed to happen, so i imagine it'd be very unlikely indeed that it's a bug in totem | 06:58 |
| DanaG | It might've been a case of me having the wrong thing have keyboard focus. | 07:00 |
| crdlb | stefano-palazzo: what GPU do you have? | 07:00 |
| stefano-palazzo | crdlb, it's an Intel somethingorother | 07:00 |
| stefano-palazzo | that's the correct model name :-) | 07:01 |
| crdlb | stefano-palazzo: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/153204 | 07:06 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 153204 in compiz "[MASTER] Applications are flickering/flashing in full screen mode" [Low,Fix released] | 07:06 |
| crdlb | I don't think it's actually been fixed in jaunty ;) | 07:06 |
| crdlb | particularly when a compiz dev just confirmed that it's expected | 07:07 |
| J-_ | stefano-palazzo: Everyone's entitled to their own opinions. :) | 07:08 |
| crdlb | unfortunately, I don't think notification clients currently pass a window id | 07:09 |
| stefano-palazzo | J-_, well, the notification settings panel has two option on it, i suppose it would be okay to add it as an option | 07:09 |
| J-_ | stefano-palazzo: Where can I see the two options? | 07:10 |
| stefano-palazzo | J-_, System → Settings → Notifications or something like that | 07:11 |
| crdlb | confirmed, the only info about the sender passed to the notification daemon is an app name string, which is completely arbitrary | 07:11 |
| crdlb | stefano-palazzo: that's for the upstream notification-daemon | 07:11 |
| crdlb | notify-osd is 100% unconfigurable | 07:11 |
| stefano-palazzo | i see | 07:11 |
| asraniel_ | hi there. any idea why the mouse middle click (open in new tab), does not work for me anymore since jaunty? | 07:12 |
| * DanaG has RV635, and happens to not be able to use fglrx. | 07:13 | |
| stefano-palazzo | asraniel, try chaning middlemouse.contentLoadURL in about:config to false, see if that helps | 07:15 |
| asraniel_ | stefano-palazzo: there is no about:config in konqueror. strangely enough the middle click button seems to work for copy paste etc in other applications. but not in konqueror | 07:17 |
| stefano-palazzo | asraniel_, sorry, i thought you were using firefox. and ubuntu :-) | 07:17 |
| === asraniel_ is now known as asraniel | ||
| asraniel | stefano-palazzo: no problem. But i found a open bugreport about it | 07:18 |
| stefano-palazzo | is epiphany-webkit supposed to work in jaunty by the way? | 07:19 |
| stefano-palazzo | because it reports broken dependencies for me | 07:19 |
| crdlb | stefano-palazzo: that probably shouldn't even be there | 07:19 |
| crdlb | it should finally be ready for 2.28 :) | 07:20 |
| stefano-palazzo | i'm looking forward to it | 07:20 |
| stefano-palazzo | for some reason i havent bothered to investigate, the fonts in webkit* are really small for me, and i love that | 07:21 |
| VSpike | I find whenever I have one of the big batches of updates (kernel, Xorg) my machine hangs/crashes during the update... if I drop out of X or go single user, the update goes smoothly | 07:24 |
| VSpike | Anyone else see this? | 07:24 |
| VSpike | Happened about 3 or 4 times now | 07:24 |
| stefano-palazzo | VSpike, do you have a massive amount of packages installed? or little hard drive space left? | 07:25 |
| VSpike | I don't think so to either.. let me check | 07:26 |
| asraniel | anybody using kubuntu with a wireless network? | 07:26 |
| VSpike | stefano-palazzo: any easy way to count packages installed? :) | 07:28 |
| stefano-palazzo | VSpike, "dpkg-query -l | wc -l" | 07:29 |
| VSpike | thx | 07:29 |
| VSpike | 2096 packages installed, 1.5G free | 07:29 |
| stefano-palazzo | that sounds reasonable, i have 2256 | 07:30 |
| stefano-palazzo | 1.5G free is a littel on the low side, but i don't think it should be the cause of your trouble | 07:30 |
| stefano-palazzo | how much ram does your machine have? | 07:30 |
| VSpike | my instinct is that it's either kernel or X update that crashes the machine, and probably the latter. I get screen garbage when it crashes | 07:31 |
| VSpike | 1.5G | 07:31 |
| stefano-palazzo | that should be enough as well | 07:31 |
| stefano-palazzo | An update of x shoudln't do anything other than replace some files | 07:31 |
| stefano-palazzo | the kernel regenerates an image on upgrade, but it also shouldn't do anything of impact to your running session, i think | 07:32 |
| VSpike | stefano-palazzo: agreed, it never has in the past | 07:35 |
| stefano-palazzo | other than doing an apt-get clean and apt-get autoremove, i'm all out of ideas | 07:35 |
| stefano-palazzo | it took me about a year to finally do an apt-get clean, and at that point it has freed up about 1.5 gb of disk space, so not a bad idea :-) | 07:36 |
| LordKow | wow what an onslaught of updates... must be beta freeze today | 07:50 |
| stefano-palazzo | i'm doing them now, fingers crossed once again | 07:52 |
| LordKow | none of them are major updates... everything went fine here | 07:54 |
| LordKow | i noticed that the artwork team fine-tuned the gdm theme slightly | 07:54 |
| stefano-palazzo | xserver-xorg-core :-) | 07:54 |
| LordKow | oh some new wallpaper too | 07:54 |
| stefano-palazzo | oh thats a good point, does anyone else find the new gdm theme the ugliest thing the world has ever seen? | 07:55 |
| stefano-palazzo | i certainly do | 07:55 |
| LordKow | im fine with it | 07:55 |
| DanaG | Yeah, the box is an ugly one. | 07:55 |
| LordKow | yea the box didnt help | 07:55 |
| DanaG | Didn't the background change a bit, too? | 07:55 |
| LordKow | yes.. if you're talking about the desktop bg | 07:55 |
| DanaG | Nah, the GDM background. | 07:55 |
| LordKow | well. the new one has always been just black | 07:56 |
| zniavre | DanaG: they add a small box ? | 07:56 |
| LordKow | yea. | 07:56 |
| DaemonDEB | hmmm, Jaunty's realtime kernel freezes often, I ended up making my own 2.6.29-rc8 B-) | 07:56 |
| DaemonDEB | *sigh* | 07:56 |
| LordKow | the coloring on the usplash theme is a little weird too. | 07:56 |
| stefano-palazzo | i think the new gdm theme looks like i made it. rubbish | 07:56 |
| DaemonDEB | I prefer the Dust theme | 07:57 |
| LordKow | whatever. they *should* switch to plymouth soon but who knows given that nvidia refuses to support KMS | 07:57 |
| DaemonDEB | though it's about time they changed that ugly boot screen | 07:57 |
| LordKow | and the new one is any better? | 07:57 |
| DaemonDEB | old one looked like crap on my monitor | 07:57 |
| DanaG | I tried plymouth from PPA. | 07:57 |
| DaemonDEB | yeah, the new one looks much better | 07:57 |
| DanaG | I liked the Human-esque usplash better than the new thin line one. | 07:58 |
| DanaG | Oh, and Plymouth does NOTHING. | 07:58 |
| DanaG | Just goes to text mode. | 07:58 |
| stefano-palazzo | what i really want for booting is something thats active the whole time, from grub to desktop | 07:58 |
| LordKow | yea that would be lack of KMS or a proper VGA setting, DanaG | 07:58 |
| DaemonDEB | DanaG: You have to set your resolution B-) | 07:58 |
| DanaG | Not true, actually. | 07:58 |
| DaemonDEB | use vga=ask | 07:58 |
| DanaG | I built a radeon KMS kernel.... still no go. | 07:58 |
| LordKow | has to be a vesa mode. | 07:58 |
| DaemonDEB | then copy the hex code to replace ask in your boot line | 07:58 |
| DaemonDEB | then run update-grub | 07:58 |
| DanaG | I also did plymouth:debug on grub menu, and it did this:" | 07:58 |
| DanaG | It completely disregarded the default SOLAR plugin... | 07:59 |
| LordKow | DaemonDEB, you shouldnt need to update-grub when changing a boot param. | 07:59 |
| DanaG | ... and just loaded details.so. | 07:59 |
| DanaG | .... which is TEXT MODE. | 07:59 |
| DaemonDEB | Plymouth is pretty neat, the Fedora boot sceen is a blue sun with flares coming up out of it | 07:59 |
| DanaG | How stupid. | 07:59 |
| DaemonDEB | very eye-candy | 07:59 |
| DanaG | It even explicitly said, "loading details. | 07:59 |
| DanaG | details.so" | 07:59 |
| DanaG | how about ***** loading SOLAR? | 07:59 |
| DanaG | Nope. | 07:59 |
| DaemonDEB | LordKow: If you don't, it'll go back to text next time you update the kernel | 07:59 |
| LordKow | i must say Fedora's plymouth is badass | 07:59 |
| DaemonDEB | of course I refuse to run distribution kernels | 08:00 |
| DanaG | So, I've just gone back to usplash. | 08:00 |
| DaemonDEB | I always build my own unless I'm on a Fedora system | 08:00 |
| LordKow | DaemonDEB, i changed my vga= setting in menu.lst a long time ago and have done many kernel updates since then and the vga command is still there. you do have to change deb's grub update settings (which are in menu.lst) also | 08:00 |
| stefano-palazzo | which works great if your resolution is supported, which mine isnt :-) | 08:01 |
| LordKow | # defoptions=quiet splash <-- that one | 08:01 |
| DanaG | I must have bad video karma. | 08:01 |
| DaemonDEB | I've come across a lot of Ubuntu-specific kernel issues, usually resulting from the patently stupid things they do to their "generic" kernel, heh | 08:01 |
| DanaG | Plymouth does nothing (or rather, uses details view only). | 08:01 |
| DanaG | fglrx.... has ALWAYS panic'd for me, even in Intrepid. | 08:01 |
| DanaG | So, I stick with usplash and plain'ol radeon. | 08:02 |
| DanaG | Though I do build the drm modules from git. | 08:02 |
| LordKow | do i still need to put rootfstype=ext4 ? | 08:02 |
| DaemonDEB | I don't clone git for anything | 08:02 |
| DaemonDEB | well, especially not the kernel, if I need something bad enough there will at least be a release candidate soon that has it, that is at least known to build | 08:03 |
| DanaG | I use the packaged 2.6.29 kernels. | 08:03 |
| DanaG | Gives me support for my HP accelerometer / freefall sensor. | 08:04 |
| DaemonDEB | I didn't think much about Ext4 til I decided to try it out just now | 08:04 |
| DaemonDEB | I usually go with XFS | 08:04 |
| DanaG | I wish I could speed up my boot, though. | 08:04 |
| crdlb | lol | 08:04 |
| LordKow | personally, i'll wait for 2.6.30. i remember linux saying ext4 was stable just prior to 2.6.28 release. i could name off the list of major ext4 fixes since 2.6.28 but it would be a very long list. | 08:04 |
| crdlb | if you're used to XFS, I guess ext4 is safe enough ... | 08:04 |
| DaemonDEB | Ext3 is painfully slow when you're unpacking tarballs with lots of directories | 08:04 |
| DanaG | you seen this? | 08:04 |
| stefano-palazzo | Exactly what performance boost can you expect with ext4 on any system other than a server thats constantly bombared? | 08:05 |
| DanaG | http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=NzE1MA | 08:05 |
| LordKow | ext4 works exactly how it was intended to be. people just dont understand the whole power-loss/computer hardlock data loss issue. | 08:05 |
| DaemonDEB | Phoronix is crap | 08:05 |
| DaemonDEB | those people are complete morons | 08:05 |
| LordKow | they think its the filesystem not working right but no it's working fine. the fact is your computer frooze or lost power before the journal was written. | 08:05 |
| DaemonDEB | their file system benchmarks were jsut flat out wrong | 08:05 |
| DanaG | Also moronic reviews: benchmark an SSD... without timing the frickin' boot time. | 08:05 |
| LordKow | so either (a) someone is complaining about hdd thrashing because the journal is being updated every second or (b) they're complaining about data loss when the journal is updated say... every 60 seconds | 08:05 |
| DaemonDEB | they don't even know how to interpret Bonie++ results | 08:06 |
| DaemonDEB | and they uild a "test suite" | 08:06 |
| DanaG | I mean, that's one of the SINGLE BIGGEST benefits of an SSD! | 08:06 |
| DaemonDEB | scary....... | 08:06 |
| * DanaG sets his commit time to 15 minutes. | 08:06 | |
| DaemonDEB | *build | 08:06 |
| DanaG | Lets laptop-mode-tools work nicely. | 08:06 |
| DanaG | Too bad RADEON eats all my power. | 08:06 |
| DaemonDEB | first of all, the file system tests they claim to have done, Ext3 is not even capable of | 08:06 |
| LordKow | make a backup of / and extract it unto an ext3 partition followed by an ext4 partition. you will definitely notice the difference. | 08:06 |
| DaemonDEB | under the most ideal of circumstances | 08:06 |
| stefano-palazzo | i'm wondering if i should use ext4 on my laptop | 08:07 |
| * DanaG uses faubackup for backups. | 08:07 | |
| DaemonDEB | yeah, Ext4 is good | 08:07 |
| LordKow | i use tar | 08:07 |
| DanaG | Backup volume is ext3 for safety. | 08:07 |
| DaemonDEB | Ext4 or XFS, either one will do fine | 08:07 |
| crdlb | XFS on a laptop is really dumb ... | 08:07 |
| DaemonDEB | Jaunty can have /boot on XFS now too | 08:07 |
| DaemonDEB | (bonus) | 08:07 |
| VSpike | stefano-palazzo: I did one of those recently :) But thanks for the suggestions | 08:07 |
| stefano-palazzo | maybe with ext4, i will stop aborting fsck every single time ;) | 08:07 |
| LordKow | well there is a bug i should probably submit wrt pidgin | 08:07 |
| DaemonDEB | not really | 08:08 |
| DaemonDEB | the XFS zeroing files myth is wrong | 08:08 |
| LordKow | apparently AIM's buddy list is unavailable right now and the window title is "Untitled window" and it keeps popping up new ones every 20 seconds. currently sitting at 10 open windows | 08:08 |
| DaemonDEB | it had a data loss bug a long time ago that has been fixes | 08:08 |
| crdlb | well, it's probably better than on an non-UPS-protected desktop, since you at least have a battery | 08:08 |
| DaemonDEB | that was wrongly explained as "zeroing files for security reasons on a crash" | 08:08 |
| DaemonDEB | *fixed | 08:08 |
| stefano-palazzo | well, if i should really lose 60 seconds of work, due to an unlikely power off on a laptop with a battery.... | 08:09 |
| DaemonDEB | Ext3 has had more serious corruption bugs than that | 08:09 |
| DaemonDEB | and nobody has tried to spread FUD about Ext3 | 08:09 |
| crdlb | ext3 is very reliable ... | 08:09 |
| DaemonDEB | hah | 08:09 |
| crdlb | slow, yes | 08:09 |
| crdlb | but I've been using it since 2002; I can hang on a little while longer | 08:09 |
| DaemonDEB | Ext3 is slow, wastes tons of disk space, is prone to fragmentation, has a horrible block allocation algorithm...... | 08:10 |
| DaemonDEB | and is quite easy to corrupt | 08:10 |
| DaemonDEB | you should not trust any file system enough to have important data that's not backed up | 08:10 |
| DaemonDEB | bottom line | 08:10 |
| crdlb | of course | 08:10 |
| DaemonDEB | because any fs is perfectly capable of eating everything | 08:10 |
| crdlb | but I don't want to push it | 08:10 |
| stefano-palazzo | everyone was raving on about the speed benefits of MurderFS as well, and i couldn't notice a difference when i tried it | 08:11 |
| DanaG | http://users.csc.calpoly.edu/~dgoyette/bootchart/ | 08:11 |
| DanaG | my bootcharts. | 08:11 |
| DaemonDEB | ReiserFS is/was better than Ext3 in a number of ways, where it fell short was mainly due to relying on the Big Kernel Lock | 08:11 |
| DaemonDEB | which meant it didn't scale well on multiprocessor systems | 08:11 |
| VSpike | I been running ext4 in my arch linux install on my laptop for a couple of months without a hitch. Subjectively no noticeable difference in speed but I haven't attempted to time boots or benchmark | 08:12 |
| DanaG | Hmm, what's a good FS for an actual backup VOLUME? | 08:12 |
| DaemonDEB | Reiser4 has a number of very good ideas as well, these have even been copied for Ext4 to some degree | 08:12 |
| maco | kwin's compositing: broken for everyone or just me? | 08:12 |
| DaemonDEB | and to Btrfs to a larger degree | 08:12 |
| DaemonDEB | DanaG: Ext4 in theory is what I'd use | 08:13 |
| DaemonDEB | in practice it is still new | 08:13 |
| DaemonDEB | Ext4 has exposed some application bugs with its delayed allocation | 08:13 |
| DanaG | I'm currently leaving my backup volume as ext3. | 08:13 |
| stefano-palazzo | DanaG, usplash is using a lot of cpu time isn't it | 08:13 |
| DaemonDEB | so they're already going to hobble the file system in Linux 2.6.30 | 08:14 |
| DanaG | Beats me, actually. | 08:14 |
| DanaG | I use data=journal on my / and /home, also. | 08:14 |
| LordKow | bug #345774 submitted | 08:14 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 345774 in pidgin "AIM buddy list unavailable window repetition" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/345774 | 08:14 |
| DaemonDEB | I use writeback journaling | 08:14 |
| DaemonDEB | Ext4 supports that | 08:14 |
| maco | LordKow: you beat me to it | 08:14 |
| DaemonDEB | it also supports no journaling B-) | 08:14 |
| stefano-palazzo | LordKow, this started to happen for me just a minute ago, funny that | 08:15 |
| * maco subscribes | 08:15 | |
| DaemonDEB | if you use Linux 2.6.29 | 08:15 |
| LordKow | stefano-palazzo, can you confirm it then? :D | 08:15 |
| maco | i think aim's servers are offline so we all hit it | 08:15 |
| stefano-palazzo | of course | 08:15 |
| LordKow | you too maco :D | 08:15 |
| DanaG | I'm on 2.6.29. | 08:15 |
| LordKow | glad that happened before release. that is a memory eater | 08:15 |
| maco | done | 08:16 |
| maco | oh it turns into a memory leak? | 08:16 |
| LordKow | well it is in a way | 08:16 |
| DaemonDEB | I built my kernel realtime, optimized for Core 2 Duo, HZ=1000 | 08:16 |
| maco | i thought it was just an annoying number of popups to see | 08:16 |
| DaemonDEB | it's how Quake Wars suggests you build it | 08:16 |
| DaemonDEB | does seem to work better | 08:16 |
| LordKow | maco, the point is as long as the aim buddy list is not available pidgin will continue to create a new window every x seconds. | 08:16 |
| maco | right | 08:17 |
| LordKow | imagine someone who leaves pidgin open 24/7 and aim is down for an entire night... | 08:17 |
| maco | i was thinking itd just become *visually* annoying | 08:17 |
| LordKow | they come back in the morning with a full swap and like 1245012354 untitled window's | 08:17 |
| maco | i didnt consider that itd be an added memory leak | 08:17 |
| maco | eh itd get OOM killed if it filled swap | 08:17 |
| LordKow | i wonder if this affects hardy and intrepid. | 08:18 |
| DanaG | Why does Ubuntu not use 1000Hz? | 08:18 |
| DanaG | I figure it might mean something even with NO_HZ kernels. | 08:18 |
| stefano-palazzo | gotta reboot | 08:18 |
| maco | DanaG: was asked recently on kernel-team list | 08:18 |
| stefano-palazzo | feels just like in the olden days this :-) bbiam | 08:18 |
| maco | i think something about the rate being variable at runtime? | 08:18 |
| maco | ill check my email | 08:19 |
| eeg3 | How do I disable the new notification system in jaunty? | 08:21 |
| DaemonDEB | DanaG: I assume it's gotten something to do with their "generic" kernel idea | 08:21 |
| DanaG | !info gnome-stracciatella-session | 08:21 |
| ubottu | gnome-stracciatella-session (source: stracciatella-session): GNOME session without Ubuntu specific components. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.0.2 (jaunty), package size 2 kB, installed size 64 kB | 08:21 |
| DanaG | =þ | 08:21 |
| DaemonDEB | that they can just make 2 kernels that kind of work, most of the time | 08:21 |
| DaemonDEB | B-) | 08:21 |
| DanaG | When it makes Pulseaudio abort... abort... abort... abort... abort... abort... abort... abort... abort... abort... abort... abort... abort... abort... abort... abort... abort... | 08:21 |
| DanaG | that sucks. | 08:21 |
| DaemonDEB | Ubuntu and Fedora are currently the only distributions that have Pulseaudio to where it works most of the time | 08:22 |
| DaemonDEB | if you use it on most other distributions you get all kinds of trouble | 08:22 |
| eeg3 | There has to be a way to turn this off, I've never been more annoyed in my life by 902832873 notifications queued up from Pidgin... | 08:22 |
| DanaG | Oh yeahzz, I wish Ubuntu could auto-mount eSATA like it does with USB and Firewire. | 08:22 |
| DanaG | I currently have to MANUALLY click it in nautilus to mount it, | 08:23 |
| DanaG | . | 08:23 |
| stefano-palazzo | can someone explain this indicator-applet business? | 08:24 |
| DaemonDEB | I *tried to make Pulseaudio work on Debian Lenny, they still have the old broken one | 08:24 |
| DaemonDEB | and their webcam tools in the repo are too old to really want to work with my webcam | 08:24 |
| DaemonDEB | other than that I would have stayed | 08:24 |
| DaemonDEB | All of a sudden, many distributions are now allowing you to have /boot on XFS (including Jaunty) | 08:26 |
| asraniel | hi there. does the mocrophone work for anybody in skype with ubuntu 9.04 ? | 08:26 |
| DaemonDEB | I'm thinking that they finalyl stopped having to be stupid with their GRUB settings to accommodate Ext4 | 08:27 |
| DaemonDEB | I don't use skype | 08:27 |
| maco | DanaG: mmm yeah, i think tickless is why | 08:29 |
| stefano-palazzo | is the indicator-applet meant to be a replacement for the 'systray' (don't know what its called in english, application names of gnome components are localized) | 08:29 |
| maco | stefano-palazzo: instead of every application cluttering up the notification area individually, we're having a unified place to say that you have IMs and emails | 08:29 |
| stefano-palazzo | maco, that sounds quite nice actually. if only xchat and gpodder would support it :-) | 08:30 |
| maco | stefano-palazzo: normal notifications will still go in the notification area, but this way you dont have 2 IM clients and a mail client putting lots of icons in there | 08:30 |
| zniavre | but it only display "no indicators" | 08:30 |
| maco | zniavre: im trying to figure that out | 08:30 |
| maco | it works on my vm but not on my hardware | 08:30 |
| maco | zniavre: any chance you use kdm instead of gdm? | 08:30 |
| maco | thats the only odd thing i can think of about my gnome setup | 08:31 |
| zniavre | nop im gnome user only | 08:31 |
| crdlb | maco: does the indicator-applet somehow allow apps to run 'hidden', like a system tray does? | 08:31 |
| maco | hmm....is notify-osd running? | 08:31 |
| dtchen | DanaG: we use dynticks as of a couple releases ago, so there's no reason to use HZ=1000 | 08:31 |
| maco | crdlb: yes | 08:31 |
| * DanaG just uses gnubiff for mail. | 08:31 | |
| DanaG | well, and thunderbird. | 08:31 |
| dtchen | DanaG: so, the argument that we should use HZ=1000 is a red herring | 08:31 |
| maco | crdlb: as of yesterday's upload, pidgin no longer puts an icon in the notification area by default | 08:31 |
| DanaG | There's nothing quite like having it QUACK at you when you have mail. | 08:31 |
| crdlb | maco: and doesn't appear in the taskbar either? | 08:31 |
| DanaG | Okay, so when you close the buddy list... does pidgin just quit? | 08:32 |
| crdlb | how do you open the buddy list then? | 08:32 |
| zniavre | you can't | 08:32 |
| maco | crdlb: if you hide it with the indicator applet it will not be in tasklist. you can use the indicator applet to unhide it | 08:32 |
| stefano-palazzo | maco, how come pidgin is still in the normal notification area then? just not done yet, or on purpose? | 08:32 |
| crdlb | what we really need is a good way to have "desktop services" like IM clients, torrent clients, and music players running | 08:32 |
| DanaG | How about if you hit the 'close' button? | 08:32 |
| crdlb | without them cluttering the notification area | 08:32 |
| maco | stefano-palazzo: you have an old configuration | 08:32 |
| crdlb | indicating when there's a new message is a completely separate issue | 08:33 |
| maco | DanaG: then it actually does close | 08:33 |
| crdlb | pidgin is not really using the notification area as a notification area ... | 08:33 |
| DanaG | I happen to LIKE having my music player in the notification area... even when I happen to already be able to have it hide and show on a hotkey. | 08:33 |
| crdlb | it's using it as a windows-style system tray | 08:33 |
| maco | DanaG: if that was not the case, it would go invisible on non-gnome desktops and not be able to be brought back without editing ~/.purple/prefs.xml, which is a pain | 08:33 |
| stefano-palazzo | maco, thats right, im using a version of pdigin i've compiled from source, forgot about that | 08:33 |
| maco | stefano-palazzo: well no i mean, "disabled by default" means for new installs | 08:34 |
| dtchen | the absolute killer for us is the feature regression from feisty, where we had PREEMPT enabled | 08:34 |
| maco | stefano-palazzo: if youve already got it set to show the icon, itll keep doing so. if you create a new user, it wont by default show the icon | 08:34 |
| dtchen | at that point, however, having PREEMPT enabled completely killed stability with binary-only blobs | 08:34 |
| DaemonDEB | kernel.org kernels are the only ones I use | 08:35 |
| * crdlb doesn't use any binary blobs :/ | 08:35 | |
| DaemonDEB | I removed the Ubuntu linux-generic packages | 08:35 |
| crdlb | that's fantastic. | 08:35 |
| maco | i remove linux-generic too | 08:35 |
| maco | the darn thing pulls in l-r-m | 08:35 |
| DanaG | I'm using the mainline 2.6.29 kernel from ~apw | 08:35 |
| DanaG | I also have no binary blobs. Only non-OSS kernel thing I use is vboxdrv. | 08:36 |
| DaemonDEB | the Ubuntu -rt kernel is unstable and freezes | 08:36 |
| * crdlb is boring and is using the stock kernel ... | 08:36 | |
| DaemonDEB | anything I build tends to work | 08:36 |
| maco | vboxdrv isnt showing as non-free when i run vrms | 08:36 |
| maco | or are you not using virtualbox-ose? | 08:36 |
| DaemonDEB | if you have the restricted modules or linux-firmware installed | 08:36 |
| DaemonDEB | you have blobs | 08:36 |
| DaemonDEB | in fact, you have blobs even with the mainline kernel | 08:37 |
| DaemonDEB | unless you strip them out before you compile it | 08:37 |
| DanaG | I'm using the non-OSE. | 08:37 |
| crdlb | I have restricted modules installed, but I'm not using any of them | 08:37 |
| DaemonDEB | ok, remove it and see what breaks | 08:37 |
| crdlb | nothing will break ... | 08:38 |
| maco | if you have all-intel, nothing | 08:38 |
| DaemonDEB | I could pull out my Nvidia card | 08:38 |
| DaemonDEB | will I? | 08:38 |
| DaemonDEB | not on your life | 08:38 |
| DaemonDEB | B-) | 08:38 |
| dtchen | maco: that's patently untrue | 08:38 |
| crdlb | I used to have to use madwifi, but not anymore :) | 08:38 |
| dtchen | linux-image-foo-generic ships binary-only blobs in kernel/sound/ | 08:39 |
| DanaG | I have iwlagn and radeon. | 08:39 |
| maco | dtchen: the question was "what will break if you remove l-r-m?" and i said "if you have all intel, nothing" | 08:39 |
| elky | DaemonDEB, what are you trying to achieve here? | 08:39 |
| dtchen | in fact, we repacked alsa-driver in Debian for that reason | 08:39 |
| dtchen | maco: that, too, is untrue | 08:40 |
| DaemonDEB | Ubuntu advertises non-free modules even if you don't want them | 08:40 |
| DaemonDEB | you have to click on it just to dismiss it | 08:40 |
| maco | dtchen: i uninstall l-r-m after install | 08:40 |
| maco | dtchen: that's no detriment | 08:40 |
| maco | DaemonDEB: that's just to make it easy for newbies to find | 08:41 |
| dtchen | DaemonDEB: true, and there is no good way to prevent anyone from adding a third-party repository | 08:41 |
| dtchen | maco: you're assuming that all hardware matches your specs | 08:41 |
| maco | dtchen: *intel* hardware does not require l-r-m | 08:41 |
| dtchen | i did work on intel handheld devices that used said binary-blobs. | 08:41 |
| DaemonDEB | dtchen: The easiest way to avoid that problem is to use onboard sound | 08:41 |
| maco | *sigh* fine! | 08:42 |
| DaemonDEB | it's really nowhere near as bad as it used to be | 08:42 |
| DanaG | At least radeon is far better than nouveau, at least in my experience. | 08:42 |
| maco | normal intel components for normal user systems | 08:42 |
| bazhang | DaemonDEB, hi | 08:42 |
| DaemonDEB | that's because radeon is made using specs released by AMD | 08:42 |
| DanaG | nouveau hammers both CPU and hard drive (yes, somehow it hammers the hard drive), and doesn't even TRY to do suspend,. | 08:42 |
| maco | by which i mean things like graphics and internets and cpu | 08:42 |
| DaemonDEB | Nouveau is reverse engineered based on Nvidia's closed source driver | 08:42 |
| DanaG | I did specifically buy my laptop with ATI, on purpose. | 08:42 |
| dtchen | maco: yes, many people use them in their tv sets. | 08:42 |
| maco | dtchen: tvs arent computers | 08:42 |
| maco | they dont count for purposes of this discussion | 08:43 |
| dtchen | i think you're being silly now | 08:43 |
| maco | dan, stop being so dan! | 08:43 |
| Hobbsee | DaemonDEB: are you intending to do anything *other* than soapboxing here? It'd be lovely if you could stay on topic. | 08:43 |
| DaemonDEB | DanaG: Fedora 11 Alpha defaults to Nouveau, and not only is is even crappier than NV, yes, I noticed that hard drive thrashing too | 08:43 |
| maco | dtchen: if you were here, i'd poke you! | 08:43 |
| dtchen | DaemonDEB: the problem with that is that it *was* onboard | 08:43 |
| DaemonDEB | What in the hell are they thinking? | 08:43 |
| DanaG | And it happens to make 2/3 of the panel applets fail to load, too. | 08:43 |
| DanaG | I had to go back to nv on that old laptop. | 08:44 |
| DanaG | NV17 == has to use nvidia 96. | 08:44 |
| dtchen | and onboard sound actually still blows | 08:44 |
| DanaG | nvidia 96 doesn't work with Jaunty. | 08:44 |
| DaemonDEB | not really | 08:44 |
| DanaG | It starts... but segfaults. | 08:44 |
| DaemonDEB | Intel's HD Audio works fine | 08:44 |
| * maco giggles | 08:44 | |
| maco | DaemonDEB: youre arguing with an audio dev | 08:44 |
| maco | quit now | 08:44 |
| dtchen | you would not believe the utter crack i just had to add three weeks ago to get hw-ptr stability | 08:44 |
| DanaG | SOmething my adi1988 chip can do now, that PA doesn't take advantage of: | 08:45 |
| dtchen | and now i'm about to add the corresponding pulseaudio-side crack | 08:45 |
| maco | oh boy, you got him started | 08:45 |
| elky | Hobbsee, i'm failing to see his relevence to here... | 08:45 |
| DanaG | two simultaneous, independent capture streams! | 08:45 |
| DaemonDEB | I don't care, "fine" by my definition means I don't feel like buying a sound card cause the onboard chipset works "fine" | 08:45 |
| Hobbsee | DaemonDEB: drop it, or take it elsewhere, please. | 08:45 |
| gnomefreak | to argue please join #ubuntu-offtopic this isnt the place for it | 08:45 |
| elky | gnomefreak, he's already banned from there for this same kind of crap | 08:45 |
| DaemonDEB | yes, banned | 08:46 |
| DaemonDEB | that's why I'm in there | 08:46 |
| gnomefreak | ok take it somewhere else than not in support channels | 08:46 |
| DaemonDEB | duh | 08:46 |
| rww | DaemonDEB: oh, so you're ban evading too? cool. | 08:46 |
| DaemonDEB | no | 08:46 |
| DaemonDEB | you're an idiot | 08:46 |
| gnomefreak | DaemonDEB: thats enough please | 08:46 |
| dtchen | DaemonDEB: i really wish most users shared your view that onboard sound was "fine" :-) | 08:46 |
| bazhang | almightycthulhu ^^ | 08:47 |
| maco | dtchen: you missed him | 08:47 |
| DaemonDEB | I feel the love | 08:47 |
| maco | DaemonDEB: dtchen says he wishes most users agreed with you that onboard sound was "fine" | 08:47 |
| ikonia | DaemonDEB: stop now - this is for jaunty discussion only | 08:47 |
| bazhang | trolling | 08:47 |
| ikonia | DaemonDEB: this is your only warning | 08:47 |
| Hobbsee | ikonia: he had one earlier, which he ignored, fyi | 08:48 |
| rww | Oh a slightly more on-topic note, I noticed the new wallpaper and usplash themes today. Very nice :) | 08:48 |
| ikonia | Hobbsee: thank you | 08:48 |
| maco | i think itd give him more time for going to concerts and spending time with humans afk instead of fixing alsa & pulseaudio all the time | 08:48 |
| elky | ooh, new purdy stuff? | 08:48 |
| Hobbsee | elky: yup! | 08:48 |
| maco | oh yeah the new wallpaper's pretty | 08:48 |
| elky | i should probably install it at some point to see this | 08:48 |
| elky | tonight is not the night, however | 08:48 |
| maco | i'm hovering between the kde 4.2 pretties and the new ubuntu wallpaper pretties | 08:49 |
| rww | elky: the usplash looks like http://news.softpedia.com/news/Ubuntu-9-04-039-s-New-Boot-Splash-107165.shtml | 08:49 |
| maco | makes me wish i had two screens on my lappy and could put gnome in one and kde in the other | 08:49 |
| DaemonDEB | ALSA and Pulse are generally a decision between what you want to break to get something else to work | 08:49 |
| Hobbsee | maco: install the ubuntu wallpaper pretties on kde? ;) | 08:49 |
| bazhang | :/ | 08:49 |
| rww | so not too different, but still a nice refresh :) | 08:49 |
| maco | Hobbsee: ive got it installed but the themes would clash horribly | 08:49 |
| Hobbsee | ah | 08:49 |
| DaemonDEB | there's stil la few apps you have to kill pulseaudio for | 08:49 |
| maco | ...my god, im becomng such a girl | 08:49 |
| dtchen | DaemonDEB: unfortunate | 08:50 |
| maco | dtchen: you! no more pointing out when i dont match! | 08:50 |
| dtchen | DaemonDEB: namely, i cannot force vendors to stop taking advantage of ioctl() | 08:51 |
| DaemonDEB | dtchen: I made a startup script for Quake Wars that kills pulseaudio before the game loads, and restarts it when I'm done | 08:51 |
| DaemonDEB | cause if I rely on ALSA, then my microphone does not work | 08:51 |
| DaemonDEB | nor does my USB headset for about half the apps | 08:51 |
| dtchen | `pasuspender -- q3a' would accomplish the same | 08:51 |
| dtchen | if it doesn't, i need to know, because that would be a rather serious threading issue | 08:52 |
| DaemonDEB | without Pulse forcing ALSA to not be stupid, it directs to sound for anything non-gstreamer through my speakers | 08:52 |
| DaemonDEB | even if I tell GNOME to use the headset | 08:52 |
| elky | i am sensing someone is lacking the ability to know when to stop | 08:52 |
| DaemonDEB | *the | 08:52 |
| dtchen | DaemonDEB: there are several breakages in components there. that's not entirely PA's fault. | 08:53 |
| maco | elky: what? ranting about the state of linux audio is perfectly normal. try spending an afternoon with dtchen | 08:53 |
| DaemonDEB | it's quite infuriating just trying to use it, I could just imagine trying to do anything important relating to it | 08:53 |
| dtchen | (i dunno, i think i rant because i'm looking at the related code and fixing it) | 08:54 |
| elky | maco, it's not the point of this channel | 08:54 |
| maco | dtchen: thats true. you have first hand experience with the spiders living in it | 08:54 |
| DaemonDEB | well, part of the idea with Pulse is to not have 50 different crapplets and config files that each control some little thing here or there | 08:55 |
| elky | dtchen, that's perfectly valid then. you're not simply soapboxing | 08:55 |
| DaemonDEB | and the humorous thing is that it has created more panels and settings files | 08:55 |
| dtchen | elky: arguably - and it's a bit of a stretch, yes - users complaining about it gives me data points to fix. but i agree that there's only so far one can go with it. | 08:55 |
| elky | dtchen, feel free to take it up in PM with him. he's making this channel unusable for anything else. | 08:56 |
| elky | if he continues, i'll have to take measures to render it usable once more. | 08:56 |
| dtchen | elky: true. i think i'll shush and return to work. :-) | 08:56 |
| maco | dtchen: shouldnt the sun be rising outside your friendly neighborhood IKEA about now? | 08:57 |
| maco | oh...ok then | 08:57 |
| elky | i think that's a preemptive yes. | 08:57 |
| DaemonDEB | only if the rotation of the Earth voluntarily gives way to the rising of the sun, otherwise it could expose bugs, better leave it night to be safe | 08:58 |
| maco | oh yeah so i was asking... | 09:15 |
| maco | kwin's compositing: broken for everyone or just me? | 09:15 |

| BUGabundo | guud morning guys | 10:03 |
| BUGabundo | is Main down? | 10:04 |
| BUGabundo | no more rhythmbox: http://mail.gnome.org/archives/rhythmbox-devel/2009-February/msg00029.html | 10:41 |
| vistakiller1 | i cant install nvidia driver in kubuntu | 11:18 |
| vistakiller1 | jockey-kde is not working | 11:18 |
| vistakiller1 | and with jockey-gtk i have install them but after the restart they dont work | 11:19 |
| vistakiller1 | i have to install manual with .run file from nvidia | 11:19 |
| vistakiller1 | i cant install and envyng-qt because is missing some python package | 11:20 |
| BUGabundo | vistakiller1: calm down | 11:25 |
| BUGabundo | don't destroy your system even more | 11:25 |
| vistakiller1 | i have to work m8 | 11:25 |
| vistakiller1 | and i need to install some drivers :P | 11:25 |
| BUGabundo | vistakiller1: go to #ubuntu-devel and ask pitti for help | 11:25 |
| BUGabundo | its his package | 11:25 |
| vistakiller1 | the only way now is through manual install | 11:26 |
| vistakiller1 | i will search launchpad for bug report to confirm it | 11:26 |
| BUGabundo | AFAIK there's no open bug currently | 11:26 |
| BUGabundo | I've pinged pitti | 11:27 |
| BUGabundo | lets see what he says | 11:27 |
| vetall | during the shutdown i get a message smth like: nm-system-config: SCPlugin-Ifupdown: devices removed (udi: /org/freedesktop/... | 11:31 |
| vetall | in 8.10 there was no such message. the NM and wire/wireless works fine. just wondering is it as it should be. | 11:31 |
| vistakiller1 | thanks BUGabundo | 11:32 |
| vistakiller1 | nice name :P | 11:32 |
| VSpike | Only a minor point, but I believe the standard behaviour for gnome terminal was that shift-ctrl-T would create a new terminal with the same CWD as the existing one | 11:36 |
| VSpike | This doesn't seem to happen now. Can anyone confirm (a) that I remember the old behaviour right and (b) that it has changed? | 11:36 |
| VSpike | OK, I forgot my other machine was right there.. confirmed (a) in 8.04 | 11:37 |

| Linkinx64_x | after yesterdays updates... | 13:53 |
| Linkinx64_x | after login in i get a blackl screen with a cursor | 13:53 |

| michaeldadmum | It seems like gdm is broken. | 13:54 |
| Linkinx64_x | yeao... | 13:55 |
| Linkinx64_x | VSpike: how u fixed it? | 13:55 |
| VSpike | I switched to console (ctrl-alt-F1), did "sudo invoke-rc.d gdm stop", then "sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude full-upgrade" | 13:55 |
| Linkinx64_x | let me see | 13:55 |
| VSpike | there were about a dozen more upgrades | 13:55 |
| VSpike | I then did "sudo invoke-rc.d gdm start" and all was well | 13:55 |
| bruce89 | oh great, unmounting now causes dialogues | 13:56 |
| VSpike | Replace aptitude with apt-get or whatever you prefer of course :) | 13:56 |
| bruce89 | just because notify-osd is useless doesn't mean they have to take it out on me | 13:58 |

| Linkinx64_x | what about failsafe gnome? | 14:02 |

| unixdawg | if you have sudo privs | 14:03 |
| unixdawg | then do apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade | 14:04 |

| xnguard | transsoup: I did try that. Also a dpkg-reconfigure resolvconf. | 15:51 |
| xnguard | It looks like NetworkManager is helpfully supplying all the correct info from dhcp in /etc/resolvconf/run/interface/NetworkManager, but it's not being processed. | 15:51 |

| BUGabundo | maco: humm NO | 17:01 |
| BUGabundo | I just got one from the last update, 5 min ago | 17:02 |
| maco | i just tried running "apt-listchanges pidgin" and it threw python at me...maybe i'm doing it wrong | 17:02 |
| BUGabundo | maco: yep here too | 17:08 |
| maco | i think im doing it wrong | 17:08 |
| maco | the --help says i should put --apt before it | 17:08 |
| BUGabundo | okay | 17:08 |
| maco | so i guess this is just graceless failure | 17:09 |
| BUGabundo | I know that doing apt-get upgrade it works | 17:09 |
| maco | would be nice if apt-listchanges --apt pidgin wasnt still running 7 minutes later with no output... | 17:09 |

| IntuitiveNipple | BUGabundo: you could build the upstream version manually just to test if it solves the issue | 17:20 |
| BUGabundo | how to do that? | 17:20 |
| BUGabundo | baby steps! | 17:20 |
| hggdh | 1. grab the source | 17:21 |
| IntuitiveNipple | grab upstream source, install dependencies, configure, make, run | 17:21 |
| hggdh | there you go ;-) | 17:21 |
| BUGabundo | source link» | 17:21 |
| BUGabundo | ? | 17:21 |
| IntuitiveNipple | There's a neat trick to installing dependencies in most cases (if upstream haven't added any) : sudo apt-get build-dep <package> | 17:22 |
| Milos_SD | hello all... | 17:22 |
| hggdh | BUGabundo, you probably can start by doing an "sudo apt-get build-dep netspeed", so you can get the dependencies (at least for the current version) | 17:23 |
| BUGabundo | E: You must put some 'source' URIs in your sources.list | 17:24 |
| BUGabundo | lol | 17:24 |
| BUGabundo | let me fix that | 17:24 |
| Milos_SD | I followed this guide: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=789578 to setup equilezer for pulseaudio, it worked in Intrepid, but now in Jaunty that has 0.9.14 pulseaudio doesn't work. Here is the part of a syslog: http://pastebin.com/m547c605e | 17:24 |

| aLeSD | hi all | 17:52 |
| BUGabundo | now how to add it to applet? | 17:52 |
| BUGabundo | manual path? | 17:52 |
| DaemonDEB | if make has given you errors you usually need headers or you don't have the right compiler in your path | 17:52 |
| aLeSD | does someone know if ubuntustudio 9.04 has a realtime kernel ? | 17:52 |
| hggdh | since I do not know how is is presented (I do not have it installed)... yes, try running it manually | 17:52 |
| DaemonDEB | The kernel for example now refuses to build with GCC 4.0 and 4.1 | 17:52 |
| BUGabundo | hggdh: its an applet | 17:53 |
| BUGabundo | need to add it to pannel | 17:53 |
| hggdh | BUGabundo, yes, add it to the panel, with a manual path to ity | 17:53 |
| hggdh | s/ity/it/ | 17:53 |
| IntuitiveNipple | OK, now, in a terminal run it. /usr/local/libexec/netspeed_applet2 | 17:53 |
| DaemonDEB | So with Debian, you end up with two compilers (4.1 for building modules for their kernel) or 4.3 (needed to build your own) | 17:53 |
| IntuitiveNipple | BUGabundo: and, then add it to the panel using the Add to Panel... | 17:54 |
| DaemonDEB | Linux 2.6 will flat out refuse to load any module that's not built with the same compiler it was | 17:54 |
| BUGabundo | IntuitiveNipple: does nothing?! | 17:54 |
| DaemonDEB | it's quite frustrating at times | 17:54 |
| IntuitiveNipple | BUGabundo: you'll see a few messages about the theme but ignore them | 17:54 |
| BUGabundo | killing and trying again | 17:54 |
| BUGabundo | ooohhh new icons!!! nice | 17:54 |
| IntuitiveNipple | Check the preferences dialog | 17:54 |
| charlie-tca | aLeSD: They should know in #ubuntu-studio | 17:55 |
| BUGabundo | IntuitiveNipple: I said baby steps... but not that much .... lol I filed the bug about the theme!!! ehee | 17:55 |
| BUGabundo | let me make download | 17:55 |
| IntuitiveNipple | There is no bug | 17:55 |
| DaemonDEB | isn't Ubuntu Studio just Ubuntu with a realtime kenrel and media apps included by default? | 17:56 |
| BUGabundo | IntuitiveNipple: applet shows ZERO | 17:56 |
| BUGabundo | on wired | 17:56 |
| BUGabundo | but LO is at 444KiB/S | 17:56 |
| IntuitiveNipple | BUGabundo: better notify the upstream maintainer of the issue then | 17:56 |
| tgpraveen | DaemonDEB: yep | 17:56 |
| BUGabundo | ah wait | 17:57 |
| BUGabundo | it was Default and that is WiFi | 17:57 |
| BUGabundo | setting Wired makes it the same as the Archive version | 17:57 |
| BUGabundo | no detection of BW | 17:57 |
| DaemonDEB | recompiling the kernel is easy | 17:58 |
| DaemonDEB | the hardest part is waiting 30 minutes while it builds :P | 17:59 |
| IntuitiveNipple | BUGabundo: notify the maintainer of my report that IFF_RUNNING is not the flag to use. In the new source it's still using IFF_RUNNING: backend.c:206:devinfo->running = (netload.if_flags & (1L << GLIBTOP_IF_FLAGS_RUNNING) ? TRUE : FALSE); | 17:59 |
| DaemonDEB | the procedure is roughly the same as it is on Debian, so I'm unaware why you would need an Ubuntu Studio | 17:59 |
| DaemonDEB | it would still not be optimal for your CPU | 17:59 |
| josh-l | hey folks, got a problem here with jaunty, i can only connect to my router if I turn off wep.... help? | 18:01 |
| BUGabundo | time to go to #hacklaviva! see you guys in a few minutes | 18:01 |
| DaemonDEB | the biggest gain you'll notice from switching from 32-bit to 64-bit Ubuntu is that the 64-bit CPU no longer lets you compile binaries using the 387 floating point unit (which is what the Ubuntu kernel uses otherwise) | 18:03 |
| DaemonDEB | the 32-bit kernel is essentially meant for the Pentium Pro circa 1995 | 18:03 |
| DaemonDEB | it can't make use of most of the features of even the Pentium II or K6 era | 18:04 |
| josh-l | anyone pls | 18:04 |
| DaemonDEB | if you want to do audio mixing using a kernel meant for a CPU from the mid 90's, knock yourself out, heh | 18:05 |
| tgpraveen | i thhought frm dual core only could we run 64 bit oses | 18:05 |
| DaemonDEB | no, you can do SMP on a 32-bit Intel CPU | 18:05 |
| tgpraveen | dual core,core 2 duo, quad core etc. pentium for eg doesnt support 64 bit | 18:06 |
| DaemonDEB | the Core Duo on the mac was a 32-bit dual core CPU | 18:06 |
| DaemonDEB | other than in the Mac your really only saw them in laptops | 18:06 |
| DaemonDEB | also you could buy a dual socket motherboard as far back as, well, forever basically | 18:06 |
| DaemonDEB | If I'm not too far off base, most of OS X is actually 32-bit, and the kernel can be either 32 or 64-bit, you can also do that on Solaris, BSD, and Linux | 18:07 |
| === ampelbein is now known as Ampelbein | ||
| josh-l | can anyone tell me please what the kubuntu network manager is called | 18:08 |
| DaemonDEB | I don't see why you'd want to though, if you have the hardware you should just go 64-bit | 18:08 |
| charlie-tca | knetwork-manager, isn't it? | 18:09 |
| DaemonDEB | KDE has been an unmitigated disaster anywhere I've tried it, I think I spent all of 20 minutes with Kubuntu Jaunty | 18:09 |
| charlie-tca | DaemonDEB: That is not really helpful at all | 18:09 |

With gnome-keyring, it prompts me for a password (which is seems to accept), but then doesn't seem to use that ssh key or somethign | 19:50 |
| maxb | doesn't use that key when? | 19:51 |
| GibbaTheHutt | after it asks for the password/phars | 19:51 |
| maxb | when connecting how? | 19:51 |
| GibbaTheHutt | erm phrase, it then tries to login | 19:51 |
| GibbaTheHutt | via ssh, via gnome-termnal | 19:51 |
| fatbrain | If I make changes to the Keyboard>Layout Options, where does that get stored? The setting "Alt/Win key behavior" is stuck at a non-default option, and there's no way to change it back to Default. So I need to do it manually somehow... :S | 19:51 |
| maxb | ripps: in shell without screen, and shell inside screen, try pressing Ctrl+V, Backspace and say what symbols appear. I'm expecting ^? | 19:52 |
| maxb | GibbaTheHutt: In the same terminal as you are trying to use ssh, run "echo $SSH_AUTH_SOCK" and say the result | 19:54 |
| === negonicrac is now known as Guest27825 | ||
| ripps | maxb: pasting the character in a normal terminal shows nothing | 19:55 |
| maxb | huh? Oh. Ctrl+V does not mean paste in this context | 19:55 |
| ripps | oh, you mean type "ctrl+v" then "backspace within screen. That does indeed create a "^?" | 19:56 |
| GibbaTheHutt | maxb /tmp/keyring-LZxxxx/socket.ssh | 19:56 |
| maxb | hmm. So at least we know your session is actually trying to talk to the gkr-daemon | 19:56 |
| maxb | GibbaTheHutt: Does "ssh-add -l" show the key? | 19:57 |
| GibbaTheHutt | it shows a key | 19:57 |
| GibbaTheHutt | I'm not sure if thats the one I added earlier via ssh-add though, or something via kgr | 19:58 |
| GibbaTheHutt | gkr even | 19:58 |

| arp13 | hello all | 20:58 |
| arp13 | I'm having kind of problems with lvm2 package | 20:58 |
| arp13 | actually, I'm not sure, that it's about it | 20:58 |
| arp13 | but anyway... | 20:59 |
| arp13 | I got daily-build of jaunty, planned to install it, using lvm2. | 20:59 |
| arp13 | but, later, after successfull installation, when I try sudo modprobe dm_mod | 21:00 |
| arp13 | it says - FATAL: no such module | 21:01 |
| arp13 | is that a feature or bug? | 21:01 |
| arp13 | everything works fine at 8.10 | 21:01 |
| arp13 | if somebody could test it, I would appreciate that much | 21:01 |

| Turl | thanks jpds | 21:08 |
| yofel | can anybody here set the frequency of his cpu with kernel 2.6.28? I can set it with cpufreq-select but the settings are ignored. | 21:08 |
| Turl | yofel: I can | 21:08 |
| yofel | odd... | 21:09 |
| Turl | yofel: I'm using the cpufreq applet | 21:09 |
| Turl | yofel: the one that says "CPU clock monitor" or sth like that (have a spanish Ubuntu) | 21:10 |
| yofel | I'm usually using that too, and the settings get applied, but judging from the cpu-temperature and powertop the get ignored | 21:10 |
| Turl | yofel: I don't think it heats more if the clock is higher but without load | 21:11 |
| Turl | try to compile something and then test with the temperatures | 21:11 |
| knittl | hi. i just upgraded to jaunty, but amarok won't play any music anymore :( | 21:11 |
| dtchen | knittl: kubuntu or ubuntu? | 21:12 |
| dtchen | more precisely, do you have both GNOME and KDE installed? | 21:12 |
| knittl | and it didn't preserve scores and ratings from my old sqlite db | 21:12 |
| knittl | dtchen: ubuntu with gnome and amarok | 21:12 |
| Turl | knittl: did you try unmuting your speakers? maybe the upgrade muted them | 21:12 |
| Turl | happened here some times | 21:12 |
| knittl | Turl: no, i get an error in amarok | 21:12 |
| Turl | oh, I can't help you then | 21:13 |
| knittl | sound is kinda weird though on startup. it's cracking | 21:13 |
| Turl | knittl: then I guess it's a pulseaudio/alsa error | 21:13 |
| knittl | or phonon | 21:13 |
| Turl | what? | 21:13 |
| knittl | soundserver in kde | 21:13 |
| usser_ | ehm what happened to xchat? wheres the menubar? | 21:13 |
| yofel | Turl: I know, i measure the temperatur with 100% CPU, and i know exactly which temperatures are possible with a set frequency | 21:14 |
| dtchen | knittl: make sure that 1) PCM and Master are not muted or zeroed; 2) your default PulseAudio sink is the intended one (check with pavucontrol) | 21:14 |
| usser_ | oh nvm | 21:14 |
| yofel | also powertop shows that the cpu speeds up although it should not | 21:14 |
| dtchen | knittl: for the crackling, you should use the test kernel at http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~dtchen/ | 21:14 |
| Halow | The test kernel worked great for me, by the way. :) | 21:15 |
| knittl | i have a selfcompiled kernel, could use that as well | 21:15 |
| knittl | and volume is up (rhythmbox is working, and everything else too) | 21:15 |
| DanaG | I sometimes have no sound until I mute and then unmute in pavucontrol. | 21:15 |
| dtchen | knittl: your self-compiled kernel probably doesn't have the necessary patch | 21:15 |
| dtchen | DanaG: known | 21:16 |
| DanaG | It starts out unmuted... but I have to MUTE it.. and then re-unmute. | 21:16 |
| DanaG | Known issue? Cool. | 21:16 |
| bruce89 | same here | 21:16 |
| knittl | dtchen: this is a jaunty specific problem then? i hadn't had problems with my own kernel in intrepid | 21:16 |
| dtchen | Halow: how so? i.e., what were the symptoms prior and after? | 21:16 |
| dtchen | knittl: yes, specific to jaunty. intrepid did not have a pulseaudio version capable of glitch-free. | 21:16 |
| dtchen | as i stated in another channel, the audio stacks in hardy, intrepid, and jaunty are radically different | 21:17 |
| knittl | ok. | 21:17 |
| Halow | I was having crackling and stuttering. With it, everything went very smooth. | 21:17 |
| knittl | hm, i just found a funny "bug" | 21:17 |
| arp13 | heh, nobody is using lvm2? :-( | 21:17 |
| knittl | my volume-keys change volume of analog volume + master | 21:17 |
| knittl | that's the reason why i can't hear a thing below 50% master | 21:18 |
| knittl | i wondered for ages | 21:18 |
| knittl | known issue? | 21:19 |
| solarion | dtchen: how about here? :) | 21:19 |
| dtchen | solarion: it has been rehashed to death in this channel | 21:19 |
| dtchen | knittl: that's your hardware | 21:20 |
| * solarion shrugs | 21:20 | |
| knittl | dtchen: is then a way to turn of control of master channel? so the buttons just operate on hardware? | 21:20 |
| knittl | 50 % being muted is pretty lame ^^ | 21:21 |
| dtchen | knittl: choose different mixer controls via System> Preferences> Sound ? | 21:21 |
| knittl | grml … too easy, haven't thought of that >.< | 21:24 |
| DanaG | Ugh, the GDM background was far nicer when the logo wasn't so frickin' huge.\ | 21:28 |
| DanaG | And was nestled nicely in the corner. | 21:28 |
| dtchen | i'm convinced that if you're staring at gdm more often than twice per week, something's wrong ;-) | 21:29 |
| dtchen | (obviously i'm biased, as that is one user on one computer.) | 21:29 |
| knittl | jaunty's really responsive, i'm astonished | 21:30 |
| knittl | gnome/gui that is | 21:31 |
| DanaG | I also WAS using the gdm background as wallpaper... but now it's gone fugly. | 21:31 |
| billybigrigger_ | dtchen: what about on a laptop? i see gdm everyday on my laptop | 21:32 |
| dtchen | billybigrigger_: your usage patterns are likely vastly different to mine | 21:33 |
| billybigrigger_ | probably | 21:33 |
| dtchen | i rarely reboot | 21:33 |
| billybigrigger_ | but i dont leave my laptop running 24/7, my desktop is another story | 21:33 |
| dtchen | right, i don't either. i suspend-to-ram and resume from it. | 21:34 |
| billybigrigger_ | fair enough, i should get used to doing that :P | 21:34 |
| DrHalan | suspending is slower than rebooting for me :() | 21:34 |
| billybigrigger_ | lol what? | 21:35 |
| * billybigrigger_ just try suspend | 21:35 | |
| billybigrigger_ | no way thats slower than reboot | 21:35 |
| solarion | actually, there is | 21:36 |
| === bruce89 is now known as bruce89bot | ||
| solarion | unlikely, tho | 21:36 |
| billybigrigger_ | cant believe i tried kde again, back to gnome | 21:36 |
| === bruce89bot is now known as bruce89 | ||
| solarion | just never say "no way taht X is possible" 'cause nature will just specifically go out and find a way to show you how wrong you can be. :) | 21:36 |
| billybigrigger | solarion, so true | 21:36 |
| knittl | hm, on restarting amarok i get an error (warning?) that playback doesn't work (something with phonon, blabla) and falling back to default | 21:40 |
| dtchen | knittl: what's the precise error? | 21:45 |
| dtchen | knittl: if Phonon is reporting that ALSA is not available and that it's falling back to PulseAudio, that's expected. | 21:45 |
| dtchen | knittl: (i.e., PulseAudio is the default subsystem in GNOME) | 21:46 |
| knittl | ha, it works! | 21:46 |
| knittl | needed to install phonon-backend-xine | 21:46 |

| aboSamoor | dtchen: I was reading about 2.6.29 kernel. It is said that it has patches for alsa codecs. Should I try them ? | 21:55 |
| atiredmachine | Hello, since this morning my Jaunty no longer runs in graphics mode. As soon as GDM is supposed to run I have black and white bars scrolling across my screen and nothing else happens. | 21:55 |
| dtchen | 2.6.29 is no less broken | 21:56 |
| dtchen | you need to try alsa-driver git HEAD | 21:56 |
| dtchen | stable, not unstable | 21:56 |
| aboSamoor | dtchen: can I compile alsa driver against 28 kernel ? | 21:57 |
| atiredmachine | I assume a recent XORG update is incompatible with my system. Is there anything I can do? | 21:57 |
| aboSamoor | atiredmachine: look at and paste .xsession-errors ;) | 21:58 |
| dtchen | aboSamoor: sure. you just need headers installed for the target kernel. | 21:58 |
| atiredmachine | alright, I'll boot back up into ubuntu and see what's in there. | 21:59 |
| c_korn | I currently installed the jaunty daily in virtualbox. my gdm does not start after I installed the guest additions: http://pastebin.com/f68d3295f | 22:02 |
| c_korn | is this an ubuntu or virtualbox problem? | 22:03 |
| aboSamoor | dtchen: I used to compile the wireless drivers, they have very nice tools to install and uninstall the drivers, are they available if I download git snapshot ? | 22:03 |
| charlie-tca | c_korn: did it work before you installed guest additions? | 22:03 |
| c_korn | yes | 22:04 |

| atiredmachine | I'm pretty sure I've been using the open source driver, as there has been no fglrx driver hitherto for Jaunty, am I not correct? | 22:27 |
| DrHalan | i recommend using ati | 22:27 |

| DrHalan | sebsebseb: yes it has been on the wiki for some time, then in community-themes and now it is in gnome-themes-ubuntu which gets installed by ubuntu-desktop | 22:32 |
| sebsebseb | DrHalan: maybe blubuntu GDM should be a default for GDM. instead of just in the repo as an option | 22:32 |
| BUGabundo | DanaG: my nvidia even with closed drivers has no way to control the power | 22:32 |
| sebsebseb | DrHalan: I love the blubuntu gdm screen | 22:32 |

| DrHalan | its nice :) | 22:32 |
| sebsebseb | DrHalan: used that since hardy or something, not sure how long it's been in the repo for | 22:32 |
| sebsebseb | DrHalan: you know it as well? | 22:32 |
| DrHalan | yeah sure i tried blubuntu | 22:32 |
| DrHalan | but i think dust is much nicer, i like dark themes but darkroom sucked | 22:33 |
| sebsebseb | the theme won't work though | 22:33 |
| sebsebseb | well errors for the theme | 22:33 |
| DrHalan | yeah i remember i had to remove it at some point | 22:33 |

| bruce89 | it's always the same | 22:34 |
| sebsebseb | xubuntu's mist theme as an option as well. or whatever it was. for gdm. not sure if I had that before | 22:34 |
| sebsebseb | bruce89: what is? | 22:34 |
| bruce89 | the complaining about the theme | 22:34 |
| sebsebseb | bruce89: heh yeah | 22:34 |
| sebsebseb | well Ubuntu do crappy themes really | 22:35 |
| bruce89 | literally | 22:35 |
| sebsebseb | however the darker default background, I quite like that | 22:35 |

| sebsebseb | yeah if Canocial are reading this right now, or later on by reading the log. well here is my advice to them. get a proper Ubuntu eye candy team sorted out, or Windows 7 is rather likely to be better than Ubuntu by a long way, when it comes to default backgrounds and log in screens. | 22:37 |
| sebsebseb | yeah Microsoft are getting quite good with eye candy in WIndows now | 22:37 |

| DanaG | Now I think it uses git. | 22:44 |
| bruce89 | doesn't everything? | 22:44 |
| DanaG | MY FACE doesn't. =þ | 22:45 |
| DanaG | s/.*FACE/YOUR MOM/ | 22:45 |
| DanaG | =þ | 22:45 |
| bruce89 | No, I don't think she'd have much use for it | 22:45 |
| DanaG | Sorry, I just couldn't resist making that joke. | 22:45 |
| BUGabundo | DanaG: calm down! | 22:45 |
| DanaG | =þ | 22:45 |
| atiredmachine | Somebody was suggesting that I might be able to try to switch drivers? | 22:46 |
| bruce89 | even though I don't understand it | 22:46 |
| BUGabundo | atiredmachine: recovery console, root, | 22:46 |
| BUGabundo | and apt-get remove --purge PACKAGE | 22:46 |
| atiredmachine | BUGabundo, and what package would I be removing? | 22:48 |
| BUGabundo | #poll: does touchpad multi touch NOT work for how many in here? 2 user on identica say it doesn't! | 22:49 |
| BUGabundo | atiredmachine: beats me! | 22:49 |
| atiredmachine | how do I find out what video driver my system is using? | 22:49 |
| aboSamoor | bruce89: where is the alsa kernel folder supposed to be ? | 22:50 |
| bruce89 | haven't a clue | 22:50 |
| bruce89 | BUGabundo: WORKSFORME | 22:50 |
| BUGabundo | thnks bruce89... anyone else? foo or false? | 22:51 |
| yofel | atiredmachine: what video card do you have? (lspci | grep VGA) | 22:53 |
| atiredmachine | yofel 64mb ATI X300 video card | 22:54 |
| * DanaG has a touchpad that has the multi-finger features just plain LOCKED OUT. | 22:57 | |

| BUGabundo | pidgin crashing all night | 22:57 |
| BUGabundo | runnig it now on gdb to catch a full bt | 22:58 |
| BUGabundo | DanaG: ok so -1 from you | 22:58 |
| BUGabundo | is that buggy or hw lack of support? | 22:58 |
| yofel | atiredmachine: check if you have xorg-driver-fglrx installed and try reinstalling it | 22:58 |
| atiredmachine | yofel how do I check that? | 23:00 |
| atiredmachine | nevermind, I think I can figure that out. | 23:00 |
| atiredmachine | yofel, if I uninstall the fglxr driver, will it default to the open source driver? | 23:00 |
| atiredmachine | or how do I use the open source driver instead? | 23:00 |
| atiredmachine | nevermind, I figured that out as well | 23:02 |
| Cycom | ok, I figured I should share this great success here. | 23:07 |
| Borg7-9 | is it true that 9.04 will boot f***ing fast | 23:07 |
| Cycom | I'm running Ubuntu Jaunty Alpha 6, Cedega, and Steam. I just played Left 4 Dead fullscreen with models and textures set to high. I could shoot zombies. My voice chat worked. I was able to quickjoin a game. | 23:08 |
| Cycom | It just. Freaking. Worked. | 23:08 |
| bruce89 | ew | 23:08 |
| BUGabundo | great Cycom | 23:08 |
| Cycom | I had to change some settings on L4D first, launching it with -dxlevel 80, but everything else was just like "oh yeah, supported!" | 23:08 |
| BUGabundo | remmeber to donate to WineHQ Project | 23:09 |
| BUGabundo | for their wonderful work | 23:09 |
| Borg7-9 | wait jaunty its not even beta yet?? its only 3 weeks away | 23:09 |
| Cycom | BUGabundo: indeed! | 23:09 |
| BUGabundo | anything is good | 23:09 |
| BUGabundo | if everyone helps out, the project can be even better | 23:09 |
| Cycom | Borg7-9: 30 days away. final release is slated for April 23rd, isn't it? | 23:09 |
| BUGabundo | Cycom: yes | 23:09 |
| sebsebseb | yes Wine is getting there | 23:10 |
| sebsebseb | ,but people should try and run native stuff :) | 23:10 |
| Cycom | sebsebseb: there isn't a native linux client for steam. we don't have the market share yet :) | 23:10 |
| sebsebseb | yeah market share exactly | 23:10 |
| Borg7-9 | damn Cycom :( my b-day is on 20th :( can they release it sooner :P | 23:10 |
| sebsebseb | it really is a joke how programs like Wine are so important these days on Desktop Linux, because the crappy OS has most of the market | 23:10 |
| Cycom | Borg7-9: heh. I wish. but wouldn't you rather they release it BETTER! | 23:10 |
| * bruce89 has never properly used wine | 23:11 | |
| Cycom | sebsebseb: well, I'm running office 2007 on here too. Basically, I'm running the windows software I need / want that I can't get FOSS. | 23:11 |
| Cycom | Everything else (video player, web browser, etc. etc.) is all free stuff. | 23:11 |
| atiredmachine | hey guys, thanks. I uninstalled the proprietary driver and that fixed the problem. | 23:11 |
| sebsebseb | Cycom: uhmmmmm tehse are all nice to, but sure will lack certain features that Office 2007 have. ,but yes these are all nice :) Open Office, KOffice, Abiword, and Gnumeric | 23:11 |
| Cycom | atiredmachine: running an ATI video card? | 23:12 |
| thiebaude | sebsebseb: i agree | 23:12 |
| atiredmachine | cycom, yes | 23:12 |
| BUGabundo | Borg7-9: sure just fro your: RC | 23:12 |
| sebsebseb | thiebaude: to which comment? | 23:12 |
| Cycom | sebsebseb: I'd be using Evolution if it didn't hang/crash so often. | 23:12 |
| thiebaude | crappy OS remark | 23:12 |
| sebsebseb | Cycom: what about Thunderbird? | 23:12 |
| BUGabundo | Cycom: video too? no closed codec? | 23:12 |
| Cycom | sebsebseb: doesn't support exchange. | 23:12 |
| BUGabundo | only ogg/vogg ? | 23:12 |
| thiebaude | ie6 is so crap on ubuntu | 23:12 |
| Cycom | BUGabundo: oh, yeah, I have closed codecs. Forgot about that. Medibuntu. | 23:13 |
| atiredmachine | Ever since I started using Jaunty my system has defaulted to the open source driver, so I have no idea why all of a sudden this morning it had switched over the the proprietary driver | 23:13 |
| sebsebseb | Cycom: well I guess it would have by now, but Firefox is Mozilla's priority, hence why Firefox 3.1 is nearly out, and Thunderbird is still on version 2 | 23:13 |
| BUGabundo | Cycom: no closed Firmware for devices? | 23:13 |
| sebsebseb | would have been by now above | 23:13 |
| Cycom | BUGabundo: not on this box, no. | 23:13 |
| BUGabundo | touchpad, disk, mem, LCD, BT? | 23:13 |
| Cycom | BUGabundo: my video driver is the nvidia one. forgot about that too. | 23:13 |
| BUGabundo | are you really sure? | 23:13 |
| BUGabundo | ehehe | 23:13 |
| BUGabundo | so you see? you live surrounded by closed source | 23:14 |
| BUGabundo | even if you have good intentions | 23:14 |
| sebsebseb | ,but browsers are more important than what email client someone uses anyway. browsers, well their rendering enginge to be exact, dicates, what happens to the web. hence why the web is not that great, since IE has most of the market and lacks tons of webstandards coding suppourt | 23:14 |
| sebsebseb | Cycom | 23:14 |
| Cycom | BUGabundo: this is true, but I am making progress :) | 23:14 |
| BUGabundo | but, hey, next time, when installing , choose F6 and the FOSS only | 23:14 |
| sebsebseb | uh at typing stuff to quick before I checked it, above it was meant to say dictates | 23:14 |
| Cycom | my favorite part is that Ubuntu has support for my sound card when vista did not. | 23:15 |
| sebsebseb | well I don't get any log in sound in this 9.04 alpha6, but oh well, and I guess that will be fixed for the final anyway | 23:17 |
| c_korn | is there a way to automatically install the build-depends when inside a chroot? | 23:17 |
| * DanaG has no binary drivers in place, unless vboxdrv happens to count. | 23:18 | |
| BUGabundo | DanaG: wanna bet? | 23:20 |
| * BUGabundo bets a Banana Dance! | 23:20 | |
| bruce89 | nice | 23:20 |
| DanaG | Well, does the iwlwifi firmware count? It's not a driver, per se. | 23:20 |
| bruce89 | someone tells me that Pidgin doesn't work without that infernal indicator nonsense | 23:21 |
| BUGabundo | I said firmware above! | 23:21 |
| BUGabundo | bruce89: pidgin DOES work without | 23:22 |
| BUGabundo | or it should | 23:22 |
| bruce89 | allegedly it just exits | 23:22 |
| BUGabundo | really? | 23:22 |
| bruce89 | see #ubuntu-offtopic | 23:22 |
| Milos_SD | what patches are included in ubuntu generic kernel? | 23:24 |
| BUGabundo | bruce89: mine is a bit crashy tonight | 23:25 |
| BUGabundo | it even made Notication Applet reload! | 23:25 |
| Milos_SD | I want to compile kernel with 1000 Hz timer but don't know if to compile kernel that ubuntu provides or vanila one from kernel.org | 23:25 |
| MTecknology | I'm trying to connect to a VPN server using network-manager-openvpn. I'm running it through cli right now. It acts like it connects but then my connectivity dies completely. I get this error in the process. ** (nm-applet:10854): WARNING **: Unhandled setting secret type (write) 'vpn/secrets' : 'GHashTable_gchararray+gchararray_' | 23:33 |

| Peddy | How do I enable removable device notifications such as this one? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NotifyOSD#Treatment%20of%20hardware%20device%20detection | 23:40 |
| BUGabundo | Peddy: I see them | 23:42 |
| BUGabundo | .... sometimes | 23:42 |
| BUGabundo | not sure why not always! | 23:42 |
| Peddy | hehe, so when you plug in a USB flash drive, you see that? | 23:42 |
| Peddy | because they work for pidgin and volume control (and wifi) notifications, but not removeable devices and things | 23:43 |
| Peddy | (for me) | 23:43 |
| MTecknology | what application do I launch to manage the gnome keyring? | 23:49 |
| MTecknology | I always thought there was a gnome-keyring-manager but I'm not seeing it | 23:50 |

| MTecknology | thanks | 23:51 |

| MTecknology | ya, I'll file a bug about it later | 23:58 |
| MTecknology | I think I'm seeing abother bug too | 23:58 |
