[00:00] <storrgie> fsck.ext4: Group descriptors look bad... trying backup blocks...
[00:00] <storrgie> Group descriptor 0 checksum is invalid.  Fix<y>?
[00:00] <storrgie> so just hold down yes as it goes through?
[00:00] <ondisk> this is and outrage. the mist theme has been removed from the default install?! :D
[00:00] <kklimonda> hmm.. in ubuntu shipit i can't choose between x86 and amd64 version?
[00:00] <cwillu> That's what you'd see if the partition was originally ext3 and was tweaked into ext4
[00:00] <storrgie> cwillu: well its a fresh format
[00:00] <storrgie> i was JUST using it 20 minutes ago
[00:01] <ellar> dtchen, your linux-headers-2.6.28-12-generic depends on  linux-headers-2.6.28-12. Whats the command to ignore that?
[00:01] <storrgie> restarted and did some crap in another OS without using that drive
[00:03] <storrgie> damn I am glad I didnt switch my 5TB array over to ext4
[00:04] <BUGabundo> storrgie: ext3 has a 6TiBs limit, right?
[00:05] <storrgie> me no know
[00:05] <mrwes> BUGabundo, you're working overtime :)
[00:06] <drbobb> ok things aren't too cool.. Xorg crashes at each logout
[00:06] <BUGabundo> mrwes: naa not even here.... just reading email and watching NCIS
[00:06] <drbobb> restarting kdm does restore the display, though
[00:07] <storrgie> cwillu: so i just did fsck and now im fine
[00:07] <storrgie> phew
[00:07] <storrgie> all my prons!!!
[00:07] <storrgie> jk haha
[00:08] <mrwes> BUGabundo, ahh...I like that show too -- have you seen the new show SouthLand?
[00:08] <mrwes> kixs ass
[00:08] <BUGabundo> no
[00:08] <mrwes> check it out
[00:08] <BUGabundo> let me get it on mytvshows

[00:10] <mrwes> I'm in CT
[00:10] <mrwes> :P
[00:20] <philsf> I can't make the guest account work from the fusa applet, how can I debug it, run from command-line?
[00:20] <mysticdarkhack> hello

[00:22] <mysticdarkhack> mms or mmsh streaming
[00:27] <mrwes> hrmm
[00:28] <thiebaude> got a question, i just downloaded the iso. and i mounted it, and how do i install it
[00:29] <BUGabundo> thiebaude: humm mounted ?? and now want to install from that?
[00:29] <BUGabundo> why?
[00:29] <cwillu> without burning it?  I don't think there's a straightforward way to do it
[00:29] <ellar> dtchen, your Kernel didn't fix the problem!
[00:29] <BUGabundo> ellar: please comment on the bug report
[00:29] <thiebaude> i cant burn cd's, i dont have that capability
[00:30] <BUGabundo> so that informantion doesn't get lost
[00:30] <BUGabundo> thiebaude: usb pendrive?
[00:30] <ellar> BUGabundo, i didn't get the number
[00:30] <thiebaude> i dont have an usb drive
[00:30] <inter4ever> why doesn't jaunty automatically enable vmmouse driver any more?
[00:30] <BUGabundo> Linux blubug 2.6.28-12-generic #42~crimsun1lp345627 SMP Sat Apr 11 02:00:26 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[00:32] <ellar> BUGabundo, mine looks similar Linux max-ubuntumobile 2.6.28-12-generic #42~crimsun2lp345627 SMP Tue Apr 14 22:20:27 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux I was looking for the bug numer
[00:32] <BUGabundo> bug 345627
[00:32] <BUGabundo> there you go
[00:32] <ellar> BUGabundo, thx
[00:32]  * BUGabundo stupid pidgin crash
[00:36] <mheath> BUGabundo: thanks, I was actually just searching for an existing bug of that :P
[00:36] <BUGabundo> lol
[00:36] <BUGabundo> its on the kernel name!
[00:37] <BUGabundo> don't you love hackers level 2 ?
[00:37]  * BUGabundo pokes cwillu and thanks for a such a great reading
[00:37] <mheath> Thats not that exciting. I can remember when the feature to add a custom string to the end of the version was *added* to the kernel :P
[00:38] <ellar> BUGabundo, how do I know if i really use PA? Or do I do by default?
[00:38] <BUGabundo> ah?
[00:38] <test34-> How can I get a screen shot of the desktop from a remote ssh session ?
[00:39] <mheath> ellar: jaunty uses pulseaudio by default, but you can check by going to PReferences -> Sound, and the Device option should say something in it about (PulseAudio Mixer)
[00:39] <BUGabundo> mheath: I mean http://www.indiangeek.net/programmer-competency-matrix/
[00:39] <BUGabundo> test34-: you may need to pass -X via SSH
[00:40] <BUGabundo> or VNC to it
[00:40] <ienorand> Would this be a valid way to check a dd disk copy against the original disk? : cmp -l  <(cat ./backup.dd.gz.00* | gunzip -c) <(cat /dev/sdb)
[00:40] <cwillu> ienorand, you don't need the cats
[00:40] <ellar> BUGabundo, it says "automatic" so i assume its pulseaudio
[00:40] <cwillu> ienorand, I generally just keep an md5sum of the image around, and re-md5sum the device
[00:40] <test34-> thanks BUGabundo
[00:41] <mheath> ellar: below that, theres a Device: dropdown box.
[00:41] <cwillu> test34-, DISPLAY=:0 <name of screenshotting app>
[00:41] <cwillu> if you're trying to get a screenshot of a remote machine by ssh'ing to it
[00:41] <ienorand> cwillu: Ok, and I would omit the <'s as well? just use parenthesis?
[00:42] <ellar> on german here but the last dropdown is set to alsa. That's where to select which should be tuned by the gnome-applet, right?
[00:43] <cwillu> hmm, gnome-screenshot can't be usably scripted
[00:43] <cwillu> DISPLAY=:0 xfce4-screenshooter -f -h -s ./ should do the trick
[00:43] <cwillu> but you'll probably need to install it first
[00:45] <test34-> DISPLAY=:0 import xwindow.png -> import: unable to grab mouse `': Resource temporarily unavailable.
[00:45] <test34-> import from image-magick
[00:45]  * ellar had connection problems
[00:45] <cwillu> ah, k
[00:45] <cwillu> test34-, you need to be running as that user though, or sudo it
[00:45] <cwillu> you can't otherwise connect to somebody else's display
[00:46] <test34-> I'm running as that user unless I need to be root
[00:57] <bjsnider> apparently even the official 2.7 intel driver still has numerous showstoppers
[01:04] <mrooney> Anyone know how I might debug the inability to resolve any domains not explicitly specified in /etc/hosts?
[01:05] <BUGabundo> mrooney: DNS probs?
[01:06] <mrooney> BUGabundo: yes it does seem, alas
[01:06] <BUGabundo> either you are not receving then or refusig to use them
[01:06] <BUGabundo> firewall maybe?
[01:06] <mrooney> BUGabundo: the network is fine I believe as I run jaunty there on another machine
[01:07] <mrooney> I could check for a software firewall, ufw perhaps
[01:07] <mrooney> hm no ufw
[01:08] <BUGabundo> what network card?
[01:08] <BUGabundo> some drivers are stupid
[01:09] <mrooney> BUGabundo: hm I don't know, though since internet works for specified IPs you wouldn't think that would be it
[01:09] <mrooney> I wonder where my DNS settings are
[01:09] <BUGabundo> /etc/resolve
[01:09] <BUGabundo> something around there
[01:09] <BUGabundo> or /etc/networks/*
[01:10] <BUGabundo> its 2 am here so I can't think strait
[01:10] <wirechief> cat /etc/resolv.conf
[01:11] <BUGabundo> there you go
[01:11] <drone> I've got an issue with a new lenovo laptop I just bought. The wireless broadcom works fine with the proprietary drivers, but the wired nic doesn't work. lspci says the nic is a bcm5906 netlink. Any ideas
[01:11] <tretle> is anyone else having issues with the appearance capplet rendering the selection wrong?
[01:12] <wirechief> BUGabundo: getting closer to this usb-creator issue of dropping people to intramfs
[01:12] <BUGabundo> drone: please look in Launchpad
[01:12] <drone> alrighty, will do. But I also might add that it didn't work on 8.10 or 8.04 either.
[01:13] <BUGabundo> wirechief: I blame either old syslinux or bad FAT32 format
[01:13] <drone> lemme check out LP and see what I can dig up
[01:13] <wirechief> BUGabundo:  seems it is going too fast, setting rootdelay=90  made it work for me.
[01:14] <wirechief> BUGabundo: the persistence is taking too long for it and it doesnt wait.
[01:14] <mrooney> wirechief: my nameserver is set to 127.0.0.1, that doesn't seem right does it
[01:14] <wirechief> nope
[01:15] <wirechief> mrooney this is mine and its the DNS for my isp nameserver 66.82.4.8
[01:15] <drone> :BUGabundo where you saying to check LP because you have seen the issue before? I don't see anything on that nic in launchpad...
[01:16] <mrooney> wirechief: hm I wonder how to figure it out if I only have ssh access to the box
[01:16] <mrooney> I could install lynx and go to my router page haha
[01:16] <wirechief> mrooney: why is that ?
[01:16] <mrooney> wirechief: why is what?
[01:16] <BUGabundo> drone: $ lspci
[01:16] <BUGabundo> get the nic ID
[01:16] <BUGabundo> and LP or google for it
[01:16] <wirechief> why do you have to use ssh
[01:17] <tretle> http://yfrog.com/61screenshotappearanceprep
[01:17] <tretle> anyone else getting that rendering issue
[01:17] <wirechief> mrooney: why do you have to use ssh
[01:17] <mrooney> wirechief: well, this is a server that I don't have physical access to (at the moment), that I'd like to get properly on the net so it can find domains
[01:18] <wirechief> oh, ok..
[01:18] <mrooney> hey tretle! what is the issue exactly?
[01:19] <tretle> the highlight/select is being rendered wrong
[01:19] <mase_work> jcastro: Was it you that had an Thinkpad X200 ?
[01:19] <wirechief> mrooney i wonder if you shh into it and then just echo the right ip into resolv.conf
[01:19] <lvlefisto> i noticed that jaunty installer takes the full screen. I mean, when installing hardy or intrepid it asks you in a window for the keybd layout, and other settings. Now jaunty takes the full screen. I am saying this because my video card (nvidia 6150) shows only the half of the screen during installation.
[01:19] <mrooney> wirechief: yeah I suspect that will work, but I don't know how to figure out what the DNS for that ISP is
[01:19] <tretle> notice the gray rounded box in the middle of a giant blue box
[01:20] <lvlefisto> I have to finish the installation to install the drivers needed to see the whole screen
[01:20] <wirechief> mrooney you might be able to just use something like  4.2.2.1
[01:20] <wirechief> ive used it before i got satelite
[01:20] <mrooney> tretle: yes I too have both highlights granted they are different colors due to my different theme
[01:21] <wirechief> mrooney i think thats called a free DNS ip
[01:21] <mrooney> wirechief: wow that works, I wonder what the heck IP that is
[01:21] <wirechief> mrooney i think thats called a free DNS ip
[01:22] <wirechief> mrooney: worked for me too when i was stuck on the moon
[01:22] <tretle> I noticed a similar rendering bug in the image collection part of eye of gnome
[01:22] <drone> :BUGabundo it says : 07:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetLink BCM5906M Fast Ethernet PCI Express (rev 02)
[01:22] <tretle> mrooney, do you know what is causing it or if there is a bug filed?
[01:25] <robin0800> What is the name of the network appelet that is now missing in thr release candidate
[01:25] <BUGabundo> robin0800: is it???
[01:26] <robin0800> that  network monitor
[01:28] <mrooney> wirechief: thanks you are my hero :)
[01:28] <mrooney> tretle: nope I don't know anything about it, I can just confirm the double highlight, maybe it is even intended!
[01:29]  * wirechief i have had a great day swatting bugs
[01:29] <tretle> double higlight is a horrible idea :D
[01:30] <wirechief> mrooney: am glad it worked for you.
[01:33] <jcastro> mase_work: yes
[01:34] <mase_work> jcastro: have you noticed an increase in wakeups with jaunty and powertop ?
[01:37] <jcastro> mase_work: it's been horrible the entire time
[01:37] <jcastro> my battery lasts like 3 hours
[01:39] <tretle> indicator applet would be so much more useful if it stopped tracking server connects/disconnects and nickserv messages..... I find myself ignoring the applet already due to this and as a result accidentally ignoring actual messages
[01:42] <ValentineX> hallo
[01:43] <mrwes> Why is the volume applet so damn big when I adjust the volume on my keyboard? Kind of over kill no?
[01:43] <mrwes> or am I just being picky?
[01:43] <mrwes> heh
[01:44] <matrixblue> mrwes, my volume applet is very tiny, did you enlarge it or something?
[01:45] <matrixblue> Yay! updates to the Mesa driver :D
[01:46] <mrwes> matrixblue, nope....although it might be the theme I'm running
[01:46] <matrixblue> mrwes, check ur icon set
[01:46] <mrwes> I'm running Shiki theme and icon
[01:47] <Warrior|Aussie> so what's going to be in 9.04?
[01:47] <matrixblue> mrwes, switch just the icons temporarily to see if that's it. I'm curious
[01:47] <mrooney> tretle: yeah, I wish I could pidgin as a whole to ignore them so I don't have to close them each time I start my computer
[01:47] <mrwes> matrixblue, I'm running GNOME-Brave -- lemme switch to a default them
[01:47] <mrwes> theme
[01:48] <mrwes> matrixblue, same under Tangerine
[01:49] <mrwes> matrixblue, wanna see a screenshot of it?
[01:49] <matrixblue> mrwes, yes please
[01:49] <mrwes> hold

[01:59] <matrixblue> mrwes, I'm installing that now!
[02:00] <lvlefisto> i noticed that jaunty installer uses the whole screen for the installation settings. Hardy and intrepid asks you in a window for the settings. Now jaunty takes the whole screen. I am saying this because my video card (nvidia 6150) shows only the half of the screen during installation. I have to finish the installation to install the drivers needed to see the whole screen.
[02:00] <mrwes> tretle, I agree --- glad I could help out matrixblue
[02:01] <matrixblue> anyone in here reads Fullcircle?
[02:01] <mrwes> I do
[02:01] <matrixblue> I love it

[02:04] <matrixblue> mrwes, , what's this?
[02:04] <mrwes> why*
[02:04] <mrwes> shiki-colors ppa
[02:05] <bronson> I just installed Jaunty RC.  No audio.
[02:05] <bronson> Worked fine in Intrepid.
[02:05] <mrwes> I think..heh
[02:06] <bronson> The Devices tab in PulseAudio Manager only shows auto_null and auto_null.monitor.
[02:06] <bronson> Does that mean that Pulse isn't finding my alsa card?
[02:08] <bronson> /proc/asound/cards shows 2 cards: Intel 82801JI and the ATI HDMI output.
[02:08] <bronson> How can I tell PulseAudio to use one of those?
[02:10] <NAD3240> bronson: what does it show under system>preferences>soud
[02:10] <NAD3240> is pulse audio selected
[02:10] <hemanth> Now that we can ship ubuntu 9.04 , is it stable enough to do a dist upgrade ?
[02:11] <bronson> NAD3240, No, it's all set to Autodetect except for Sound capture which is ALSA.
[02:11] <lfaraone> Hi, my gnome-panel freezes every once in a while. Any idea how I can stop that from happening? :)
[02:11] <bronson> No idea what Default Mixer Tracks is supposed to be but that's set to Capture: Monitor of Null Output.
[02:12] <NAD3240> bronson: what happens when you hit Test
[02:12] <bronson> lfaraone, what do you mean freeze?  Stops updating or won't respond to clicks?
[02:12] <bronson> NAD3240, just silence.
[02:12] <bronson> pavumeter shows that sound is being played but it's clearly just going to the null device.
[02:13] <Smegzor> Since upgrading to Jaunty, I can't launch the Fusion icon anymore.  It doesn't appear in my panel and I don't see a process for it.  Anyone else unable to launch the fusion icon?
[02:13] <NAD3240> hmmm
[02:14] <NAD3240> bronson: when you do pulse audio from drop down menu and select pulse on all of them
[02:14] <NAD3240> bronson: reboot
[02:14] <NAD3240> bronson: no sound?
[02:14] <bronson> Well, I set them all to pulse.  No sound.
[02:14] <bronson> I can try a reboot.
[02:14] <kyleabaker> can someone help me with an error trying to install ia32-libs?
[02:15] <bronson> Doubt it'll do anything...
[02:15] <bronson> Here's a clue maybe: when I set Sound Playback to HDA Intel ALC1200 Analog (Alsa), I get an error:
[02:16] <bronson> audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample !gconfaudiosink: Could not open device for playback.
[02:18] <NAD3240> bronson: is this an onboard card? are you using rear panel connection or front
[02:19] <bronson> NAD3240, onboard, have headphones plugged into front, speakers plugged into rear.
[02:19] <bronson> No sound on either.
[02:19] <bronson> But the problem is that my sound card doesn't show up in PulseAudio Manager, no?
[02:19] <bronson> The Devices tab shows only the auto_null device.
[02:22] <NAD3240> yes you should have a bunch of alsa  lists there
[02:22] <bronson> aplay -l shows the sound cards on this system.
[02:23] <bronson> so does cat /proc/asound/cards
[02:23] <NAD3240> how does lspci list it
[02:24] <bronson> Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801JI (ICH10 Family) HD Audio Controller
[02:24] <NAD3240> so in your main volume control now. what device is being used
[02:25] <bronson> NAD3240, the auto_null device
[02:25] <Smegzor> Jaunty has killed my compiz and enabling desktop effects gives me windows without borders.  How can I get compiz or just the window borders back?
[02:25] <bronson> Rebooting into Intrepid to make sure it still works there.
[02:26] <albech> i am experiencing some weird behavior on mouse clicks.. it seems random, but sometimes i loose a click+hold and other times it click one more time.. it is a bluetooth mouse and working perfectly in 8.10
[02:26] <bronson> Man, i love how fast Jaunty boots.
[02:28] <albech> another issue is that every morning the system has crashed and it back at the login screen with an error that either firefox or pidgin has crashed the system..
[02:28] <NAD3240> smegzor: go to terminal and type metacity --replace
[02:28] <bronson> Interesting, this card is called ALC888 in Intrepid, ALC1200 in Jaunty.
[02:29] <Smegzor> thanks.  Just reading lots of posts about this.  I'd quite like the eye candy back :)
[02:34] <stone1343> hi, can I assume that if I've applied all the updates to the beta that I'm now at RC level?
[02:35] <DanaG> ugh, nvidia 180.44 doesn't build on 2.6.30-rc2.
[02:35] <wirechief> stone1343: i think so, no more updates are being allowed in unless its a bug fix i think.
[02:35] <stone1343> should I be expecting to have to do a dist-upgrade now and again next week?
[02:36] <wirechief> stone1343: i did a du about 1 hr ago and only got 1 package
[02:36] <stone1343> wirechief: thanks
[02:37] <stone1343> i'm really happy with jaunty on my acer aspire one
[02:37] <crackintosh> I've got no video in jaunty, any ideas?
[02:37] <wirechief> some good reading here: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/904
[02:38] <wirechief> crackintosh: you are not getting a desktop ?
[02:39] <DanaG> ah, found a patch for nvidia.
[02:40] <Smegzor> hmm.. does Jaunty have working desktop effects at all?  I'm wondering if removing compiz will help?
[02:41] <albech> Smegzor, yes, they are working just fine here
[02:41] <bronson> NAD3240, I just found a USB headset...  that works fine.  the null device disappears and all sound works like it should.
[02:41] <bronson> It appears Jaunty is incompatible with the Intel ALC1200?!
[02:41] <DanaG> er, you mean the Realtek?
[02:41] <bronson> On this motherboard anyway...  Asus P5QL-EM.
[02:41] <DanaG> ALC1200 is very new -- needs recent ALSA for it.
[02:42] <crackintosh> Correct , no desktop just junk
[02:42] <NAD3240> bronson: good. i am glad that u got it
[02:42] <DanaG> I'm not sure of the best way to recommend installing an updated ALSA.
[02:42] <mase_work> jcastro: yeh mine too
[02:43] <mase_work> jcastro: i ended up getting the 9 cell
[02:43] <jcastro> I have a 9 cell
[02:43] <crackintosh> Can someone recommend a CPI irc client iPhone hard to type on.
[02:43] <mase_work> yikes
[02:43] <crackintosh> Cli
[02:43] <jcastro> mase_work: it's an upstream kernel/thinkpad-acpi thing, it's on the radar to be fixed at some point
[02:44] <mase_work> jcastro: i was talking to henrique and bald novell kernel guy...you know the one..hates canonical
[02:44] <mase_work> they asked lenovo for info
[02:44] <mase_work> i think they got some
[02:44] <jcastro> I've seen it brought up on the thinkpad list
[02:44] <mase_work> but not all
[02:44] <jcastro> the T400's and 500's are pretty bad too
[02:44] <jcastro> but I think it's worse on the X200's iirc
[02:45] <mase_work> yeh it shouldn't be though
[02:45] <bronson> DanaG, I got this motherboard like 8 months ago...  New but not THAT new.
[02:45] <wirechief> my r61e works great
[02:45] <mase_work> on vista (apparently , i haven't confirmed) it uses 5 watts with lenovo's special sauce
[02:45] <mase_work> i can get like 9 watts
[02:45] <mase_work> if i try really hard
[02:45] <mase_work> which lasts about 6 hours
[02:45] <jcastro> 5 watts?
[02:45] <mase_work> yep
[02:45] <jcastro> mine is closer to 12
[02:45] <jcastro> hah
[02:46] <bronson> wait, what's bad about the T500?
[02:46] <mase_work> yeh
[02:46] <lfaraone> bronson: it does both of those things
[02:46] <jcastro> wirechief: yeah, it's really a problem on the newer thinkpads
[02:46] <bronson> Can't find much wrong with mine.
[02:46] <lfaraone> bronson: example, it just did so now after I clicked on my network location
[02:46] <wirechief> jcastro i have heard that too. not sure whats going on with lenovo
[02:47] <jcastro> no one on the kernel team could figure it out when I let them mess with it
[02:47] <jcastro> they just know it's a thinkpad-acpi problem
[02:47] <bronson> lfaraone, hm, I haven't seen that.
[02:47] <bronson> I would try removing applets that you don't care about and watch for it to go away.
[02:48] <mase_work> jcastro: 2.6.29 is somewhat better. i tried fedora 11 last night which has some wierd wakeup issue in kernel.core which i think is just a regression  but all of the other wakeups are gone
[02:48] <bronson> Then you'll at least know which applet it might be.
[02:48] <crackintosh> XvV
[02:48] <lfaraone> bronson: just did a test, and it seems it crashes each time I go to Places>location-mounted-over-ssh
[02:49] <mase_work> jcastro: the iwlagn is only waking up like 11 times
[02:49] <jcastro> hmm
[02:49] <jcastro> I will investigate 2.6.29 then
[02:49] <mase_work> similar results with 2.6.29.1 in ubuntu
[02:49] <mase_work> but it has other issues
[02:49] <lfaraone> In other news, my wifi is randomly disassociating from the network. Happens with two different APs.
[02:49] <mase_work> suspend doesn't work
[02:49] <bronson> Anyone have a suggestion on how I can get this ALC1200 working on Jaunty?
[02:49] <jcastro> mase_work: yikes, that's kind of a deal breaker for me
[02:50] <bronson> I'd hate to leave this USB headset plugged in forever.
[02:50] <mase_work> jcastro: yeh me too. can i PM you ?
[02:50] <jcastro> mase_work: sure, I am stepping out for a few minutes, chat away, I'll be back in 10
[02:51] <bronson> mase_work, you have a T500?  My 2422-CTR suspends & resumes 100%.  :-/
[02:53] <lolz> Don't you hate when you're fucking a girl in the ass and she is like "stop! stop! I'm only 13"..just happened to me. That is the last time I fuck my sister.
[02:54] <mase_work> bronson: no i have an X200
[02:54] <bronson> ah.  Big difference.
[02:54] <bronson> mase_work, that makes more sense.  :)
[02:55] <mase_work> bronson: suspend works in intrepid
[02:57] <bronson> A regression, that sucks.
[02:57] <calc> x200 are nice :)
[02:58] <calc> yea mine is around 12W on average i think
[02:58]  * calc can't wait for the X201 (i suppose will be what its called) later this year
[02:58] <calc> i won't be getting that until mid next year though
[02:58] <jcastro> wait, what?
[02:58] <jcastro> already?
[02:59] <calc> jcastro: intel's new refresh will be sometime Q3
[02:59] <calc> jcastro: they come out with a new platform each year
[02:59] <calc> if i am lucky i might get the next refresh after this one
[02:59] <calc> so eg x202 or whatever
[02:59] <calc> jcastro: the one later this year will have the gpu on the cpu aiui
[03:00] <calc> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrino - Calpella
[03:01] <jcastro> nice
[03:01] <jcastro> calc: my boot is down to 7 seconds flat.
[03:01] <td1231> jcastro: wow
[03:01] <jcastro> but that google guy with 17.5 seconds is getting all the attention
[03:01] <calc> nice :)
[03:01] <calc> jcastro: too bad its not 7s from power on, heh
[03:01] <td1231> jcastro: with the 9.04 rc?
[03:02] <td1231> oh
[03:02] <td1231> i thought it was from power on :D
[03:02] <jcastro> td1231: yeah, I also have an intel ssd
[03:02] <calc> td1231: bios is probably > 10s by itself
[03:02] <jcastro> yeah the bios takes forever
[03:02] <td1231> :D
[03:03] <calc> i think the newer preinstalled Ubuntu systems will be < 30s from power on, at least for some of them
[03:03] <calc> which isn't too bad
[03:04] <bronson> Yeah, my boot is <10s not counting bios.  But bios is a good 15s.
[03:04] <bronson> Not sure what the heck those bios guys are doing in there...   Performing a few SETI@home work units or something?
[03:05] <calc> vendors are trying to get their bios as quick as possible as well, so hopefully it will get better with newer systems
[03:05] <calc> of course home built systems bios usually are extremely slow
[03:05] <calc> i think my desktop probably takes 30s+ just for the bios
[03:05] <bronson> I've long had the dream of just banging linuxbios in there with static modules.
[03:06] <bronson> Just come charging right out of the gate, just have to wait for SATA and USB to settle.
[03:06] <td1231> calc: that's a big lol :D my home built desktop has an option for "quick boot" which takes the bios about 2 seconds :D
[03:06] <calc> i've read some systems bios are already < 5s
[03:06] <bronson> That's pretty far down the round tuit list of course.
[03:06] <calc> td1231: well boards that have extra option modules that have to load and detect drives, etc are really slow :\
[03:07] <odinsbane> okay I've got an issue, more specifically I have this issue...https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/305979
[03:08] <odinsbane> Mine worked until the mesa drivers were updated...yesterday maybe.
[03:08] <mysticdarkhack> has anyone install jaunty with ext4 haivng any issue?
[03:08] <jcastro> mysticdarkhack: I just did 4 today without incident
[03:09] <bronson> yes YES YES
[03:09]  * calc is staying away from ext4 until its actually stable
[03:09] <bronson> Found the ALC1200 sound fix!
[03:09] <jcastro> calc: VM installs. :D
[03:09] <calc> jcastro: ah :)
[03:09] <calc> i think it should be good for general use by Ubuntu 10.04
[03:09] <odinsbane> so ubottu says there is a fixe released.  Do I need to find it on my own?
[03:09] <crackintosh> Hello, I am speaking to you guys from ircii on a cli of ubuntu, regretfully, i dont have another machine to research my problem so I am resorting to irc. I installed the pre-release of jaunty and when I try to boot, I get no video. I have tried onboard video as well as through my radeon card. I have tried different xorg.conf's and booted in recovery mode to reset xorg.conf. could someone suggest another solution?
[03:09] <calc> especially with all those poor Fedora testers ;-)
[03:10] <mysticdarkhack> jcastro, so no problem at ur end right?
[03:10] <jcastro> none during the install
[03:10] <bronson> needed to add "options snd-hda-intel model=auto probe_mask=1" to /etc/modprobe.d
[03:10] <crackintosh> calc: fedora still exists?
[03:10] <bronson> the probe_mask=1 is the important bit.
[03:10] <calc> crackintosh: yea and the users are being guinea pigs for testing out ext4 bugs :)
[03:10] <mysticdarkhack> same here
[03:10] <bronson> Should I file a bug?
[03:10] <odinsbane> crackintosh: I just read about that somewhere, I think it is the raedon
[03:11] <mysticdarkhack> during beta install using ext4, nautilus keep flicking on me
[03:11]  * calc thinks maybe that was not as nice a way to say they get to have all the fs eating bugs... :|
[03:11] <calc> someone has to have their system killed to save the RHEl users after all :-\
[03:11] <crackintosh> odinsbane: I turned off the radeon card in the bios
[03:11] <mysticdarkhack> at least jaunty is cling to release or I should say next week
[03:12] <crackintosh> is there a command for me to downgrade :-/
[03:12] <calc> mysticdarkhack: that wasn't an ext4 bug it was a brasero bug
[03:12] <crackintosh> i dont feel like dealing with this no video problem.
[03:12] <calc> mysticdarkhack: if it is what i think you saw
[03:13] <mysticdarkhack> calc, really
[03:13] <mysticdarkhack> calc, hmm
[03:13] <calc> mysticdarkhack: brasero in some systems constantly crashed which caused nautilus to open infinite items in the taskbar
[03:13] <odinsbane> What does it mean 'fix released' does that mean it is in the package manager now?
[03:13] <calc> odinsbane: fix released means it should be fixed already probably in jaunty (or earlier?)
[03:14] <bronson> Hm, how do I file a bug in Jaunty?
[03:14] <bronson> Just go straight to launchpad.net?
[03:14] <Lilarcor> yes
[03:14] <mysticdarkhack> calc, something when you drag a windows and move around on the workspace, it crash when testing on ext4
[03:14] <Lilarcor> bronson: yes
[03:14] <bronson> Isn't there a bug-buddy or something that will snapshot my hw?
[03:14] <odinsbane> I think there could be a regression then
[03:14] <Lilarcor> bronson: you can do 'lshw'
[03:14] <jcastro> bronson: ubuntu-bug is what you want
[03:14] <mysticdarkhack> calc, well everything working now anyway on rc
[03:15] <Lilarcor> bronson: please put as many details as possible. thank you.
[03:15] <bronson> jcastro, yes...  except how do I specify the kernel?  ubuntu-bug /boot/vmlinuz?
[03:15] <jcastro> ubuntu-bug linux
[03:15] <jcastro> and it will attach all the right stuff
[03:15] <bronson> cool, thanks.
[03:15] <calc> mysticdarkhack: oh that might be a different bug then, i'm not sure
[03:16] <mysticdarkhack> calc, maybe
[03:17] <mysticdarkhack> what theme is everyone using on jaunty if I may ask?
[03:17] <jcastro> Dust!
[03:17] <calc> i'm using default with a black ubuntu background
[03:17]  * calc isn't sure where he got it anymore
[03:18] <mysticdarkhack> dust seem popular
[03:18] <jcastro> the key to dust is the awesome panel background in /usr/share/themes/Dust
[03:18] <jcastro> which unfortunately isn't applied when you switch to it
[03:18] <mysticdarkhack> what about new wave
[03:18] <tacosarecool> hmm the thing I did awhile ago seems to have side effects
[03:20] <Fizzter> Read something online regarding jaunty, was wondering if someone could tell me its legitimacy..
[03:20] <Fizzter> http://forum.eeeuser.com/viewtopic.php?id=66032
[03:20] <tacosarecool> Where the upgrade installer froze on intrepid to januty so I went back a kernel and upgraded to januty
[03:21] <tacosarecool> using the package manager
[03:22] <timboy> Is it possible to use 3 monitors yet with randr 1.3?
[03:23] <jcastro> maco: bored?
[03:23] <calc> jcastro: too bad lenovo didn't put a displayport connector on the x200 instead of vga, its only on the the slice
[03:23] <jcastro> calc: I haven't seen a displayport anywhere yet, so I think I am safe
[03:24] <Fizzter> no response? :(
[03:24] <bronson> jcastro, ubuntu-bug doesn't seem to attach any information to the bug report.
[03:24] <calc> jcastro: well displayport can convert to hdmi/dvi/vga
[03:24] <calc> jcastro: vga can't convert to anything useful :\
[03:24] <jcastro> Fizzter: I know lots of people who've lost data to XFS
[03:24] <bronson> At least, launchpad is admonishing me to run "ubuntu-bug -p linux"
[03:24] <jcastro> Fizzter: I would just backup and reinstall, shrug
[03:25] <bronson> but that's exactly what I did!
[03:25] <jcastro> bronson: ugh, stupid, this happened to me earlier, one second
[03:25] <jcastro> oh
[03:25] <Fizzter> what about ext4?
[03:25] <jcastro> you need to say ubuntu-bug -p linux-image-2.6.blah blah
[03:25] <odinsbane> how can I upgrade to the rc ?
[03:25] <jcastro> it doesn't work on metapackages or something
[03:25] <Fizzter> going to something that is so unstable seems like a bad move
[03:25] <jcastro> Fizzter: there are known dataloss bugs with ext4, but lots of people seem to run it fine
[03:25] <jcastro> if you want something stable just use ext3
[03:26] <Halow> Jaunty doesn't use ext4 by default because of that. Unless you tell it otherwise, it'll give you ext3.
[03:26] <Trewas> Fizzter: journaling filesystems survive violent shutdown, but recently modified files may be corrupted with xfs/ext4 more easily than with ext3
[03:27] <maco> jcastro: one sec
[03:27] <Halow> odinsbane: Are you presently using Jaunty? If you are, and have updated at some point today, you're using the RC.
[03:27] <bronson> jcastro, hm, ubuntu-bug -p linux-image-2.6.28-11-generic doesn't work either.
[03:28] <jcastro> hmmm
[03:28] <odinsbane> Halow: cool I just never updated very much, plus I was hoping It my fix my crash problem
[03:28] <jcastro> bronson: someone in #ubuntu-bugs probably knows what the problem is and can help you
[03:28] <bronson> This is taking too long, I'm just going to submit the bug w/o info.
[03:30] <Fizzter> more easily corrupted
[03:30] <calc> it looks like for ubuntu-bug you just use ubuntu-bug (no -p)
[03:30] <Fizzter> hmm
[03:30] <calc> at least on jaunty
[03:30]  * calc reading the source code
[03:30] <Fizzter> does that mean "likely corrupted"?
[03:30] <Fizzter> what does that mean?
[03:30] <Fizzter> it's pretty vague
[03:30] <calc> and then i think the source package name
[03:30] <Fizzter> "yeah power loss might cause you to lose data" doesn't help lol
[03:31] <calc> Fizzter: anything "written" within a certain timeframe (30s iirc?) would be lost if fsync wasn't used (fairly common)
[03:31] <maco> jdwhat's up?
[03:31] <maco> jcastro: what's up?
[03:31] <calc> however i think that there may be patches in the kernel to work around that now
[03:31] <Smegzor> after some help in #compiz it appears that the upgrade to Jaunty has broken python in some way.  I get a traceback error when I try to run ccsm.  What do I need to do to fix python?  Synaptic says I have lots or python versions installed.
[03:31] <calc> Fizzter: er not just lost but the files would end up as 0 byte
[03:32] <jcastro> maco: have you seen this? https://code.launchpad.net/~mathiaz/+junk/iso_testing_scripts
[03:32] <Fizzter> So if I save a file, and power goes out 20 seconds later, it's lost?
[03:32] <Fizzter> this is concern for me because I literally had a power outage 2 days ago lol
[03:32] <Fizzter> so it's "on my mind"
[03:32] <jcastro> Fizzter: dude just use ext3
[03:32] <calc> Fizzter: yea.. except at least before the kernel patch not only the changes lost but the whole file
[03:32] <jcastro> and have backups
[03:32] <Halow> And get a UPS for your system!
[03:32] <calc> Fizzter: read tytso's blog if you want to know details :)
[03:33] <Trewas> Fizzter: well ext4 used to eat your data if you wrote a new version of a file and did an unclean shutdown with ~ minute, xfs is afaik similar, ext4 should be fixed in that regard
[03:33] <jcastro> maco: so basically, he fires off this script and it goes does kvm magic and he can mass-test isos.
[03:33] <jcastro> maco: I tried it but it's kind of very difficult to use if you're a normal person
[03:33] <jcastro> maco: so I was thinking, getting people around this, fix it up to be easy, so you can just tell people to run this and they can just automate testing
[03:34] <jtholmes> Fizzter,  ubuntu-bug  packagename
[03:34] <Fizzter> yikes
[03:34] <Fizzter> sounds like a really immature filesystem
[03:34] <Fizzter> I did use ext3
[03:34] <Fizzter> it's just on my mind
[03:34] <calc> Fizzter: yes and no, he didn't want to fix it since it complied with posix... but well posix sucks :)
[03:35] <Fizzter> Someone said in here the other day "what's the point of installing jaunty if you didn't use ext4?"
[03:35] <Fizzter> I guess now I have a valid answer :)
[03:35] <maco> jcastro: yes for karmic id like to make a *GUI* to do ubuntu-vm-builder magic
[03:35] <calc> later linus ranted on him a bit so i think things will probably be fixed more inline with users expectations going forward than with minimally meeting some spec
[03:35] <maco> or more generally for kvm
[03:35] <bronson> jcastro, the files WERE attached to the bug.
[03:35] <maco> because kvm is CONFUSING
[03:35] <bronson> It's just the bug editor implied that they wouldn't be.
[03:35] <jcastro> maco: what do you think about at least getting people around making this friendly?
[03:35] <maco> i mentioned this in #ubuntu-devel and got "huh? what's so hard about it?"
[03:35] <bronson> They were hidden or something.  Odd.
[03:35] <jcastro> maco: having it support whatever VMs the user uses would help too I think
[03:36] <calc> Fizzter: the answer is of course if you like your data... afaik only Fedora is going to default to ext4 for this release cycle... and i think that is to get it tested for RedHat's RHEL customers
[03:36] <jcastro> bronson: yeah it doesn't really give you good feedback on that
[03:36] <calc> Fizzter: Ubuntu might default to ext4 for 9.10 though since it should be more tested by then, and would let us shake any remaining bugs out before 10.04
[03:36] <Fizzter> isn't that released in a couple days?
[03:37] <jcastro> maco: is there a wiki page or something for these iso ideas?
[03:37] <calc> Fizzter: er 9.10 is released in 2009-10 (Oct 2009)
[03:37] <calc> Fizzter: ubuntu's release numbers are year.month
[03:38] <Fizzter> oh
[03:38] <Fizzter> OH
[03:38] <Fizzter> 9.04
[03:38] <Fizzter> got it
[03:38] <maco> jcastro: i dont know. i just know i think kvm is nice and fast but absolutely abismal to try to use
[03:38] <Fizzter> hehe
[03:38] <Fizzter> i thought 9.04 was for the beta, and when it released in a few days, it was 9.10
[03:38] <Fizzter> silly me
[03:38] <mase_work> maco: have you tried Xen :) in comparison KVM is fun
[03:38] <jcastro> maco: if it's automated and stuff I won't care too much. Plus, virt-manager isn't THAT bad.
[03:39] <mase_work> Virtmanager is nice
[03:39] <jtholmes> 9.04 beta,  9.04RC now, next week 9.04 Final
[03:39] <mase_work> in intrepid at least
[03:39] <maco> huh i wonder if that manpage still...
[03:40] <Fizzter> i installed 9.04 with wubi
[03:40] <Fizzter> gave it a whirl
[03:40] <maco> yes it does
[03:40] <maco> man virt-install still claims that --os-variant=centos5 is valid
[03:40] <mase_work> ooh dri updates today
[03:40]  * mase_work crosses fingers
[03:40] <maco> in reality, it throws errors going "why are you giving me this non-existent option?"
[03:55] <somedud3> whats the best FS to use for a slow IDE drive ?
[03:57] <Lilarcor> XFS is a nice filesystem
[03:58] <Lilarcor> win32 doesn't have fs drivers for it though
[03:59] <somedud3> so ext4 would be bad if i have a slow disk ?
[04:00] <maco> ext4 would be bad if you value your data
[04:00] <maco> if you dont mind the possibility of having all open files or recently opened files be lost in the event of a power outage, go ahead
[04:01] <macvr> hi all... is anybody having problems with launchpad? i'm not able to comment/report bugs, open url just times out!
[04:02] <somedud3> maco: im on a laptop so power outage is not a problem
[04:02] <ienorand> It is a risk, but I wouldn't say it's as bad as you make it out... I've had a couple of powercuts and no bad effect so far...
[04:02] <maco> or system crash :P
[04:02] <maco> ah with my luck im not risking it
[04:02] <maco> as i said "possibility"
[04:03] <td123> dunno, if you don't mind the possibility of problems, then go with ext4 imo
[04:03] <maco> not guaranteed, but something to be aware of if you're crud at keeping recent backups or have important data
[04:03] <Amaranth> maco: The main problems were 'fixed'
[04:03] <xangua> Hello, could anybody tell me what things causes the X's to crash (my screen lately freezes a LOT)
[04:03] <Amaranth> maco: If you do a rename over an existing file it does an fsync for you, basically
[04:03] <maco> Amaranth: fixed meaning they turned off the high-speed features? the ones that linus railed against?
[04:03] <maco> ah ok
[04:03] <jameswf> anyone seen: configure: error: mcs_path doesn't exist
[04:04] <Amaranth> maco: Other than the if a program writes a file out and doesn't fsync it it doesn't care if that file makes it to disk
[04:04] <Amaranth> s/the/that/
[04:04] <holyscott> Is it a know bug that it is next to impossible to get samba working in kubuntu (9.04 RC)??
[04:04] <somedud3> maco: i synchronize all my important docs with dropbox , so im covered there
[04:04] <maco> ok then go ahead
[04:04] <somedud3> i just want to know if its worth it to use ext4 if you have a shit harddrive
[04:04] <Amaranth> only with ext4 can you get omgawesome boot times
[04:04] <somedud3> haha
[04:04] <maco> i take backups every ...uh...whenever a friend's system crashes catastrophically and it reminds me that i should do that
[04:05] <jameswf> I booy in 30 seconds
[04:05] <maco> that means about a month ago :)
[04:05] <Amaranth> I've been running ext4 and started with alpha 2 or so (so I've got some cruft built up) and my machine boots in 20 seconds
[04:05] <maco> i boot in a crappy 35 seconds now
[04:05]  * maco scoffs
[04:05] <Amaranth> If I cleaned it up and tuned it a bit I'd probably get down to 15 seconds
[04:05] <maco> want my 22 second boots back
[04:05] <Amaranth> jcastro boots in 7 seconds :P
[04:05] <Amaranth> but he spent $700 on an Intel SSD
[04:05] <pwnguin> heh
[04:05] <maco> right...
[04:06] <bjsnider> is anybody here using the fglrx driver?
[04:06] <maco> ill try doing a clean install of kubuntu after release and see if that's faster. maybe its just fragmentation
[04:06] <pwnguin> jdong had a few boot tricks
[04:06] <pwnguin> esp for fragmentation
[04:06] <maco> yeah i know, but im not sure i trust his pyfrag
[04:06] <pwnguin> something involving piping the contents of readahead into a tar archive
[04:06] <pwnguin> and piping it back out
[04:06] <Amaranth> jdong also has a full upstart boot
[04:06] <maco> format and start over seems safer
[04:06] <maco> yes that too
[04:06] <maco> the upstart boot looks fun!
[04:06] <Amaranth> Although most of his upstart boot is just rules that call the init scripts
[04:06] <maco> id like to try it...on the *other* laptop
[04:07] <Amaranth> but before jaunty it took my machine from 40 seconds to 35 seconds so I wonder how much it'd help now
[04:07] <ienorand> hmm, my usb is not making wonders for boot time ~1min ( I timed 1.20 until I have firefox ready, same thing on xp was twice the time... and I've always considered that rather fast for xp...)
[04:08] <somedud3> whats better between reiserfs and ext3 ?
[04:08] <Amaranth> somedud3: ext3
[04:08] <Amaranth> reiserfs is unmaintained and impossible to fsck
[04:08] <HorizonXP> hey guys, i'm a Gentoo user, but Ubuntu Jaunty's shaping up to be quite nice! Congrats on a job well done.
[04:08] <macvr> hi all... is anybody having problems with launchpad? i'm not able to comment/report bugs, open url just times out!
[04:08] <Amaranth> HorizonXP: Thanks, glad you like it
[04:08] <ienorand> somedud3: well ext is the standard... but reiserfs has the added extra of murdering your wife...
[04:08] <jcastro> Amaranth: mine was $369
[04:09] <jcastro> Amaranth: and I have the "slow" one
[04:09] <Amaranth> HorizonXP: Now get back to compiling X with -fomgoptimized
[04:09] <Amaranth> :P
[04:09] <HorizonXP> LOL
[04:09] <Amaranth> jcastro: Did you update your firmware to fix the "gets slower over time" bug?
[04:09] <jcastro> Amaranth: long time no see, what's up? how's life?
[04:09] <xangua> Hello, could anybody tell me what things causes the X's to crash (my screen lately freezes a LOT)
[04:09] <jcastro> Amaranth: yeah, like, 5 minutes after it came out.
[04:09] <jcastro> Amaranth: which in hindsight seems kind of dumb
[04:09] <HorizonXP> Amaranth: why do you think I'm using Ubuntu? I'm still waiting for my Core 2 Quad to finish compiling GCC!
[04:09] <Amaranth> jcastro: I do iPhone tech support and rewrite alacarte for XFCE in my time off :)
[04:10] <jcastro> heh
[04:10] <Amaranth> jcastro: Yeah, imagine if it bricked it like that seagate firmware mess
[04:10] <Amaranth> jcastro: You must have one of the smaller drives then, 64GB?
[04:11] <jcastro> yep
[04:11] <Amaranth> ah, I would go nuts with that little space in my laptop
[04:11] <ienorand> ah, ssd...
[04:11] <Amaranth> Probably because the desktop I was using for a file server died...
[04:11] <jcastro> well, I have my desktop
[04:11] <jcastro> it's not like I keep everything on there
[04:12] <Amaranth> I really can't use multiple computers, second computer always ends up being gaming machine or file server
[04:12] <somedud3> if i use ext4 just for /boot will i still see a perf boost ?
[04:12] <somedud3> * i mean boot time boost
[04:12] <holyscott> This may be a silly question, but what does it mean when a launchpad bug is triaged??
[04:12] <Amaranth> Whenever I sit at the second computer I need a file from the first computer and vice versa
[04:12] <Amaranth> dropbox may help there
[04:12] <jcastro> holyscott: it's put from a big pile into a smaller pile.
[04:12] <ienorand> It would actually be really neat... One only needs ~20 gig max or evrything that is really actively used by the system.
[04:12] <Amaranth> somedud3: No, that won't help at all
[04:13] <jcastro> Amaranth: yeah, I just reinstalled today and I am dropboxing it still
[04:13] <mikegriffin> hiya, i may have found weird a bug in bash_completion, if someone wishes to confirm on their side
[04:13] <somedud3> what about / with ext4 but /home on xfs ?
[04:13] <ienorand> mikegriffin: shoot
[04:13] <holyscott> I'm shocked that samba file sharing not working is low priority.
[04:13] <Amaranth> holyscott: It either means the bug was reported upstream and we're done with it until upstream fixes it or that we've figured out the problem but no one is actively working on it yet
[04:13] <jcastro> Amaranth: the db guys just said in a forum that they have dropboxes talking to themselves on a LAN, so like, that could all be done on your internal network
[04:14] <Amaranth> jcastro: Yeah, that's what I'd do
[04:14] <jcastro> Amaranth: I rsync it first then I hook up db
[04:14] <Amaranth> Need to get a new monitor and HDD for my desktop first though
[04:14] <mikegriffin> ienorand: nm, this is a redhat box. i thought i was local
[04:14] <Amaranth> newegg has this awesome 22" samsung with built-in speakers and a tv tuner, drop that on my desktop and I've got a monitor, TV, and Wii display all in one
[04:15] <holyscott> Amaranth: Thank you..
[04:16] <ienorand> bleh, don't talk about newegg, just saw their ~50$ international shipping fees, bleh, bleh
[04:18] <pwnguin> Amaranth: i got an lcd from dell a few years ago
[04:18] <pwnguin> vga, dvi, svideo and composite inputs
[04:18] <jcastro> me too, I got two of their 22's
[04:18] <jcastro> Esomething
[04:18] <Amaranth> pwnguin: This has HDMI, VGA, DVI, and composite, iirc
[04:19] <Amaranth> weird resolution though
[04:19] <Amaranth> like 1320x788 or something
[04:19] <pwnguin> heh
[04:19] <pwnguin> for 22"?
[04:19] <Amaranth> yeah
[04:19] <pwnguin> not worth hdmi
[04:19] <pwnguin> this is a 20.1 inch 1600x1200
[04:20] <Amaranth> as a monitor it'll probably only get used to see what is happening to my desktop and for watching movies from the desktop so I don't need high resolution
[04:20] <Amaranth> obviously the Wii can't overdo it
[04:20] <Amaranth> wtf, someone seriously screwed IO in the kenrel
[04:20] <Amaranth> kernel*
[04:20] <Amaranth> running apt-get upgrade should _not_ make my entire computer stop responding for 15 seconds
[04:21] <pwnguin> how fast is your disk?
[04:21] <Amaranth> 5400rpm
[04:21] <Amaranth> It doesn't happen in OS X :P
[04:21] <pwnguin> i was thinking in mb/sec
[04:21] <maco> screwed worse than before?
[04:21]  * maco ducks
[04:21] <Amaranth> maco: Yes, sadly
[04:22] <holyscott> Is it normal that copying hundreds of gigs to a usb external drive puts my cpu at 100% usage?
[04:22] <Amaranth> pwnguin: I dunno, 40MB/s?
[04:22] <Amaranth> I'll tell you when the upgrade finishes
[04:22] <pwnguin> Amaranth: clearly not fast enough that IO should block on the CPU
[04:22] <pwnguin> the intel SSDs are quite fast
[04:22] <Amaranth> pwnguin: Everything else is blocking on IO
[04:23] <Amaranth> scheduler is screwed or something
[04:24] <pwnguin> how many MiB in a gigabyte?
[04:25] <holyscott> 1000
[04:25] <pwnguin> more specifically, i want to make a swap partition of 1gb worth of ram
[04:25] <holyscott> 1024
[04:25] <pwnguin> ok
[04:25] <pwnguin> you've named them both now
[04:27] <pwnguin> guess i'll just use 1024 to be on the safe side
[04:27] <holyscott> how much system ram do you have?
[04:27] <mdl-unit> Did anybody else have bash break recently?
[04:27] <pwnguin> 1GB
[04:27] <holyscott> I would maybe do 2 gig swap
[04:27] <pwnguin> why
[04:27] <holyscott> which disto?
[04:28] <pwnguin> am i in the right channel?
[04:28] <Jordan_U> mdl-unit, Break in what way?
[04:28] <holyscott> more for kde less for gnome
[04:28] <pwnguin> ive never had a problem with my current setup
[04:28] <pwnguin> im testing out restore from backup
[04:29] <pwnguin> and clearly jwz was right
[04:29] <mdl-unit> Jordan_U, I couldn't launch a shell, it would hang at full CPU usage and never get to the prompt.  I managed to fix it after much trial and error
[04:30] <Amaranth> pwnguin: right about what? :)
[04:30] <pwnguin> Amaranth: his backup strategy
[04:30] <mdl-unit> I couldn't even reinstall the package, it would break because I guess dpkg depends on bash to do some of its stuff.  I had to delete /bin/bash and create a symlink from /bin/sh to /bin/bash to make it work!
[04:30] <Amaranth> pwnguin: don't bother?
[04:30] <pwnguin> just buy a 2nd disk, and rsync it daily
[04:30] <Jordan_U> mdl-unit, I have noticed that logging in at a tty sometimes takes a long time
[04:31] <pwnguin> you'll have a hot spare always ready to go
[04:32] <pwnguin> i thought id be clever and use a NAS to store the backups
[04:32] <holyscott> is there a website you are following directions from on how to set it up?
[04:33] <pwnguin> just making it up as i go along
[04:35] <pwnguin> jwz.livejournal.com/801607.html
[04:36] <pwnguin> there you go scott
[04:36] <BHSPitMonkey> Anybody else have big problems with Java on jaunty?
[04:36] <BHSPitMonkey> (64-bit)
[04:36] <holyscott> Thank you pwnguin i'll read that over
[04:36] <holyscott> see if I want to try that out
[04:37] <CoasterMaster> !flash
[04:41] <holyscott> pwnguin: You've had it auto backing up everyday?
[04:41] <SandGorgon> guys - is it possible to rsync RC iso by having a beta ISO ?
[04:42] <holyscott> there is a simple cdupgrade on the alternate iso
[04:43] <J-_> Is it possible to get the pulse audio colume applet to show each application(with sound) so I can adjust it accordingly within the applet.
[04:43] <pwnguin> holyscott: not yet. just once
[04:43] <Halow> J-_: You want the application "pavuman".
[04:44] <holyscott> are you haveing to restore it, or testing it?
[04:44] <pwnguin> holyscott: more to the point, im not using jwz's guide
[04:44] <pwnguin> but its getting clear the path im walking is insanity
[04:44] <holyscott> what rsync command line did you use?
[04:44] <pwnguin> none
[04:44] <pwnguin> ive got about seven backup tools im looking at. the first one is sbackup
[04:44] <holyscott> sudo rsync -vaxE --delete --ignore-errors / /Volumes/Backup/
[04:45] <holyscott> nothing like that?
[04:45] <J-_> Halow: Cool, thanks. I'll look at it. :)
[04:45] <pwnguin> simple-backup is an old Ubuntu SoC project
[04:45] <pwnguin> its gui based
[04:45] <SandGorgon> holyscott - I am not able to google for cdupgrade. any pointers on where to get it?
[04:45] <holyscott> rsync would only update, or change what is added or changed?
[04:45] <holyscott> sandg
[04:45] <holyscott> let me get it for you
[04:45] <holyscott> it was very hard for me to find
[04:46] <holyscott> but it upgraded my beta to rc in like 5 min, cause I already had all the newest updates.
[04:46] <pwnguin> rsync is a fast way to move changes from one place to another
[04:46] <SandGorgon> holyscott: appreciate it
[04:46] <holyscott> to start you need to dl the alternate iso and burn a cd
[04:46] <pwnguin> jwz's technique has the advantage of being dead simple at the expense of being expensive
[04:47] <holyscott> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/JauntyUpgrades/Kubuntu
[04:47] <SandGorgon> I'm trying rsync -vvhP on my beta ISO and it does some symlinking to ../.pool/<something.iso> and quits
[04:48] <pwnguin> holyscott: obviously jwz uses a mac and a translation will be needed for his guide and ubuntu
[04:49] <Amaranth> J-_: The pulseaudio one does that by default
[04:50] <Amaranth> J-_: Ubuntu does not use the pulseaudio one by default though, we use the old applet one
[04:51]  * Amaranth wonders why a file transfer would make CPU usage spike
[04:51] <Amaranth> I'd probably be lagging badly if I didn't have dual core
[04:51] <pwnguin> Amaranth: the usual culprit is missing dma
[04:51] <holyscott> Amaranth: over usb/?
[04:51] <Amaranth> holyscott: yep
[04:51] <Amaranth> copying to my ipod
[04:51] <pwnguin> or stupid usb
[04:51] <holyscott> that is the same problem I am having
[04:52] <holyscott> I have spent 6 hours doing a 300 gig backup to my external usb drive
[04:52] <PhotoJim> Amaranth: USB is a pretty "dumb" hardware interface.  very CPU intensive.
[04:52] <Amaranth> man, I've been getting terrible regressions since 8.04
[04:52] <pwnguin> apparently greg k-h thought usb belonged in userspace
[04:52] <pwnguin> but this is not anything new
[04:52] <holyscott> it is surposed to be going at 30 meg a second, and is moving at 3 meg a second.
[04:52] <J_-> Pavuman isn't in the repos
[04:52] <holyscott> would it be faster to stop it and do it in windows?
[04:52] <pwnguin> Amaranth: the other option is spinlocks
[04:53] <PhotoJim> holyscott: My experience has been that Ubuntu is as fast or faster at USB than Windows is.
[04:53] <pwnguin> Amaranth: here's an idea: install powertop and see what's cranking
[04:53] <holyscott> I have 75 more gigs to go.
[04:53] <Amaranth> pwnguin: err, or just top
[04:53] <pwnguin> im assuming you already knew that
[04:54] <Halow> J-_: Install padevchooser? I know it installs pavuman for sure.
[04:54] <pwnguin> powertop will reveal any insane interrupt timeouts for usb stupidity
[04:54] <Amaranth> pwnguin: rescheduling interrupts (process hoping between cores) and extra timer interrupts
[04:54] <Amaranth> It's probably gio/gvfs
[04:54] <Amaranth> hopping*
[04:54] <PhotoJim> holyscott: btw 30 MB/s is optimistic for USB 2.0.  it's possible, but I tend to get about 20-22 MB/s over USB 2.0.
[04:55] <holyscott> anything would be better then the 3-5 I have been getting
[04:55] <somedud3> how much space do you need for ubuntu on average ??
[04:55] <PhotoJim> holyscott: lots of reasons why your rate could be that slow.  the device might be slow.  or using multiple devices on one USB channel.  or the write speed of where you're sending data to.
[04:56] <holyscott> using windows speed test that drive ususally gets 25-30 meg.
[04:56] <PhotoJim> holyscott: megabits or megabytes?
[04:56] <holyscott> this is just first time I have done huge backup to notice.
[04:56] <holyscott> MiBs
[04:57] <PhotoJim> holyscott: dunno, I've never seen that sort of speed discrepancy.
[04:57] <pwnguin> well
[04:58] <pwnguin> some devices are notoriously bad at throughput
[04:58] <pwnguin> they'll do okay at small tests
[04:58] <pwnguin> but tank on bigger ones
[04:58] <pwnguin> esp flash based stuff
[04:59] <holyscott> my 16 gig flash card is faster then my 640 gig external drive
[05:00] <holyscott> how do I use powertop, just run it, or should I be enabling any context?
[05:01] <PhotoJim> I actually don't know, I use top and htop.  I hadn't heard of powertop before tonight.
[05:01] <PhotoJim> top is installed by default.
[05:01] <holyscott> its showing me that my usb is using 60% cpu, and ehci / usb is using another 30%
[05:01] <pwnguin> powertop wants sudo access to some of the power stuff
[05:02] <holyscott> nothing is usb, showed up in top, or htop
[05:02] <holyscott> SandGorgon: did that help you out at all?
[05:02] <pwnguin> someone should check the ubuntu gitlog for usb changes
[05:03] <SandGorgon> holyscott - got the cdupgrade script. trying to use it, because i'm not able to get rsync to work
[05:03] <holyscott> that is why I was asking about rsync, I formated my external, and was gonna do a fresh copy over, didn't know it would take 10 hours.
[05:04] <holyscott> did you DL the alt cd? or just the script?
[05:04] <PhotoJim> the first copy takes a long time.  rsync makes the updates faster.
[05:04] <holyscott> that is what I should have done
[05:04] <SandGorgon> i had an older alternate cd - so just got the script off it. a variables need modification
[05:04] <pwnguin> if the destination is way out of sync with the source
[05:04] <holyscott> would you know the ideal rsync comand line to do it?
[05:04] <pwnguin> its gotta send over all the changes
[05:04] <pwnguin> whcih is everything
[05:05] <J-_> Halow: http://bigbrovar.wordpress.com/2009/02/19/control-pulseaudio-streams-with-gnome-pulse-applet/ is pretty much what I was going for. I installed gnome-volume-control-pulse as it looked like the correct package, but I don't think it is. And the packages from the URL from the site doesn't have a jaunty app. Figured it was the same. hehe
[05:05] <pwnguin> tridge has a good lecture on the design of rsync
[05:05] <SandGorgon> i use rsync -avvhhP rsync://url .
[05:05] <holyscott> I am only talking about a few 100 megs different on a weekly basis
[05:05] <pwnguin> holyscott: the initial change will take time
[05:05] <pwnguin> but after that
[05:06] <Halow> J-_: Yeah, at some point when I started using Jaunty (I think it was... alpha 4) there was something by default that did it. It went out shortly thereafter.
[05:07] <somedud3> how come when i write some files from linux onto my windows data partition, the files do not show up in windows ?
[05:07] <J-_> Halow: Ah I see.
[05:11] <mjs7231> hey guys quick question.. :)
[05:11] <mjs7231> I just installed Ubuntu 9.04 RC1 and everything seems great so far
[05:11] <mjs7231> only problem is I am not seeing the NVidia proprietory drivers
[05:12] <mjs7231> is there something I need to do?
[05:12] <holyscott> yeah
[05:12] <holyscott> the is drivers tool
[05:12] <mjs7231> can you elaborate on that a little, I don't know what that is
[05:12] <somedud3> how come when i write some files from linux onto my windows data partition, the files do not show up in windows ?
[05:13] <holyscott> should be called hardware drivers
[05:13] <Halow> mjs7231: System>Administration>Hardware Drivers.
[05:13] <holyscott> I am in kubuntu, so may be different
[05:13] <mjs7231> ok, I have that loaded..
[05:13] <mjs7231> and its just blank
[05:13] <mjs7231> 2 panels with nothing in it
[05:13] <holyscott> what video card?
[05:13] <mjs7231> NVidia geforce
[05:13] <holyscott> that narrows it down to like 200
[05:14] <mjs7231> I just came from the 32bit version of 8.10 and I know it was running the proprietory drivers
[05:14] <holyscott> which series
[05:14] <mjs7231> 2 sec
[05:14] <mjs7231> e-Geforce 7600 GT KO, GDDR 3, 256 MB, PCI-E
[05:15] <SandGorgon> guys.. any idea where is the kubuntu desktop cdimage. i want to rsync with it and cant see it
[05:16] <mjs7231> Second question.. I installed 64 bit so I would be able to see the full 4GB I have installed.. but it looks like its only seeing 3.2GB. :(
[05:17] <rww> mjs7231: what's the output of uname -a?
[05:17] <mjs7231> Linux pkkid-desktop 2.6.28-11-generic #41-Ubuntu SMP Wed Apr 8 04:39:23 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[05:17] <holyscott> Do any of you guru's use samba file sharing at all?
[05:17] <mjs7231> I do a little.
[05:18] <holyscott> gnome or kde?
[05:18] <mjs7231> but im no guru
[05:18] <mjs7231> gnome
[05:18] <rww> mjs7231: okay. Can you copy the output of "cat /proc/meminfo" to http://paste.ubuntu.com/ and link the page it creates here, please?
[05:18] <holyscott> its seeming to be broken in kde, and kubuntu
[05:18] <mjs7231> rww, 2 seconds
[05:19] <mjs7231> rww, http://pastebin.com/m5102d0d5
[05:19] <mjs7231> holyscott, Did you not know about the Nvidia driver?
[05:19] <dougmmms> are there known issues with 9.04 RC and flash video performing poorly (i.e. the video is choppy, flash eating up cpu/ram)
[05:20] <holyscott> I have the nvidia driver working fine on my 8800gts
[05:20] <mjs7231> holyscott, I don't know about KDE samba.. I am strictly a gnome user
[05:20] <dougmmms> i'm using adobe flash 10.x
[05:20] <mjs7231> holyscott, You just load the Hardware Drivers UI and it showed up?  Nothing more?
[05:20] <holyscott> none of the control panels work to configre smb
[05:21] <xangua> dougmmms: it is normal to flash to be buggy in GNU
[05:21] <dougmmms> flash has generally performed fine for me
[05:21] <xangua> i use a script for Youtube videos to play them wih my local player
[05:21] <dougmmms> during the last few releases at least
[05:21] <xangua> that way my ram usage is down
[05:21] <rww> dougmmms: it works fine for me using the plugin on Adobe's site, too
[05:22] <dougmmms> rww, hmmm. i've tried both the one provided in the repos as well as the one from adobe
[05:23] <rww> mjs7231: that's odd. What type of graphics card do you have?
[05:23] <mjs7231> rww, e-Geforce 7600 GT KO, GDDR 3, 256 MB, PCI-E
[05:25] <wgrant> xangua: You can search and play YouTube in the normal Ubuntu video and audio player, at Application->Sound and Video->Movie Player. You then select YouTube in the sidebar, and search away. No need for extra scripts.
[05:27] <mjs7231> rww, Its also odd because I am not seeing the proprietary drivers (that existed when I was running 32 bit 8.10)
[05:27] <rww> mjs7231: for which hardware?
[05:27] <mjs7231> rww, The graphics card
[05:27] <rww> mjs7231: which card do you have?
[05:27] <mjs7231> rww,  e-Geforce 7600 GT KO, GDDR 3, 256 MB, PCI-E
[05:28] <rww> mjs7231: oh, sorry, forgot you already told me.
[05:28] <mjs7231> no problem. :)
[05:28] <somedud3> is there any disadvantage to install ubuntu on a logical partition ?
[05:29] <rww> somedud3: no, it works fine
[05:29] <rww> mjs7231: can you pastebin "sudo lshw -sanitize", please? It'll output a bunch of information about your computer, including info on your installed memory and graphics card.
[05:29] <J-_> http://code.google.com/p/gnome-pulse-applet/wiki/Screenshots Compiled that bad-bitty
[05:30] <dougmmms> hmmm, this is a bit frustrating.  9.04 is working quite well besides the flash issue.  time to investigate/bug report.
[05:30] <xangua> is someone there having freezes issues ¿?
[05:31] <xangua> i have a lot recentyl
[05:31] <mjs7231> rww, http://pastebin.com/m1862f7c6
[05:32] <frybye> hi - just reading the release notes for the release candidate.. am not shure about this LABEL=home and LABEL=output thing.. if I have been installing all updates since beta release do I actually need to fix something myself or not?
[05:33] <mjs7231> rww, I doubt it, but could all this have anything to do with the fact that im runnign ext4?
[05:33] <rww> mjs7231: I don't think so, no.
[05:34] <wgrant> xangua: What type of graphics card? Running ext4?
[05:35] <xangua> yes with ext4 and a Mobile Intel Graphic Media wgrant
[05:35] <wgrant> xangua: Were you deleting files at the time?
[05:36] <xangua> no, just using as normaly jum
[05:36] <wgrant> xangua: Switching windows or tabs or desktops?
[05:36] <xangua> with Compiz ¿?
[05:36] <wgrant> Yes.
[05:37] <xangua> yes normaly when using compiz to switch windows
[05:37] <mjs7231> rww, Its late, im headed to bed.. thanks for looking a bit into this, but I'll need to continue tomorrow
[05:37] <wgrant> xangua: OK, that's a known -intel bug.
[05:37] <rww> mjs7231: okay. One suggestion to try tomorrow:
[05:37] <wgrant> xangua: It is being worked on.
[05:37] <xangua> ooh, and it will be fixed in the final release '¿
[05:37] <xangua> i hope so
[05:38] <rww> mjs7231: go into your BIOS and see if there's a memory remapping option, or something named similarly. If it's off, turn it on.
[05:38] <xangua> or i will have to return to Long Term versión
[05:38] <wgrant> xangua: Hopefully, but it's a hard problem.
[05:38] <mjs7231> rww, Thanks, writing that down now. :)
[05:39] <mjs7231> rww, and no idea yet on the NVidia driver issue?
[05:39] <rww> mjs7231: I don't know about your graphics driver problem, though. I don't have much experience with nvidia
[05:39] <mjs7231> rww, Cool thanks alot! :)
[05:39] <rww> mjs7231: you're welcome. Good luck :)
[05:39] <mjs7231> rww, I may reinstall with ext3 as well tomorrow
[05:39] <mjs7231> seems like people are still having issues
[05:40] <mjs7231> ok, goodnight
[05:40] <mjs7231> thanks again
[05:41] <dougmmms> hmmm.  ok, maybe i was wrong about everything being fine.  basic system specs:  intel core 2 duo 2.00ghz 3gb ram intel graphics.  i updated from 8.10 to 9.04RC today.  i only have x-chat and songbird running right now, but both CPUs are running around 50%
[05:41] <partitionprobs> Hello if i order a free copy of kubuntu now will i get this new one?
[05:41] <dougmmms> ram usage around 475mb
[05:41] <Zarlan> @partionprobs, I think you have to wait for the final release before they put it on the cds
[05:42] <stefanlsd> Does anyone else have an issue with a Dell internal 3g card not being detected after boot up?
[05:42] <dougmmms> ah ok
[05:42] <partitionprobs> When is it going to be release
[05:42] <mase_work> stefanlsd: yeh i was trying to get one working the other day but i never actually tried it with intrepid
[05:42] <dougmmms> according to top, xorg is running around 40% cpu on average, using 4.5% (of 3gb) ram
[05:42] <mase_work> so i have no idea if it ever worked
[05:43] <dougmmms> that's insane
[05:43] <mase_work> dougmmms: which driver ?
[05:43] <stefanlsd> mase_work: intrepid was fine. jaunty seems to have an issue
[05:43] <mase_work> stefanlsd: k
[05:43] <dougmmms> mase_work, it's an integrated intel card.  i'm not sure how to look up the driver.
[05:43] <wgrant> dougmmms: Do you get lots of output after a while if you run 'tail -f /var/log/Xorg.0.log'?
[05:44] <mase_work> dougmmms: you  need to use UXA
[05:44] <admin_masu3701> when is 9.04 comin out?
[05:44] <partitionprobs> Well thanks for your help whale oil beef hooked
[05:44] <wgrant> dougmmms: That's the 'intel' driver.
[05:44] <wgrant> mase_work: Not necessarily.
[05:44] <wgrant> admin_masu3701: In a week.
[05:44] <admin_masu3701> wgrant: will it be different thn the beta
[05:44] <dougmmms> wgrant, about 10ish lines
[05:45] <wgrant> dougmmms: Nothing more is spewing out.
[05:45] <admin_masu3701> had the beta installed but had wireless card problem
[05:45] <mase_work> wgrant: well if his cpu is pegged i am guessing UXA would help.
[05:45] <wgrant> admin_masu3701: Of course. Lots of bug fixes.
[05:45] <dougmmms> wgrant, nope, not yet at least
[05:45] <mase_work> might not be stable though
[05:45] <wgrant> mase_work: Not necessarily. It can even have the opposite effect.
[05:45] <wgrant> dougmmms: OK, that's unfortunate... Try killing gnome-settings-daemon.
[05:45] <dougmmms> wgrant, ok, one second
[05:45] <Lint01> does anyone know when new fglrx is out?
[05:46] <wgrant> dougmmms: Sorry, I have to leave now.
[05:46]  * wgrant -> gone
[05:46] <mase_work> Lint01:  fglrx is a binary only driver, you have to ask ATI
[05:46] <admin_masu3701> can i install dreamweaver in ubuntu 8.10
[05:47] <rww> Lint01: Which graphics card do you have?
[05:47] <rww> admin_masu3701: Ask in #ubuntu.
[05:47] <mase_work> admin_masu3701: depends, does adobe make an Ubuntu version of dreamweaver ?
[05:47] <lamalex> does anyone know seahorse on jaunty is missing the 'backup keyrings' menu option?
[05:47] <Lint01> rww: radeon x1300
[05:47] <Amun> When is the release date of Jaunty ?
[05:47] <dougmmms> mase_work, do you think if i run the restore to default line found in the x.org file, something may happen (i.e. magical fix)?
[05:47] <rww> Amun: 23rd
[05:47] <Amun> of this month?
[05:47] <partitionprobs> Yes.
[05:47] <Amun> oh shi...
[05:48] <mase_work> dougmmms: not sure sorry. intel in jaunty is still broken. it may or may not get fixed before jaunty is released
[05:48] <Amun> I'll just wait to download it then...
[05:48] <mase_work> i have an intel card too
[05:48] <mase_work> so i hope it does
[05:48] <hifi> radeon 9600 no dri in jaunty, anyone else having this problem?
[05:48] <mase_work> but its a whole new x server
[05:48] <mase_work> so its not exactly easy
[05:48] <dougmmms> mase_work, that's odd. i would think it would be the easiest to get working
[05:49] <mase_work> dougmmms: well the driver is in flux atm
[05:49] <hifi> intel is borked too?
[05:49] <mase_work> they are moving to GEM
[05:49] <HorizonXP> my ubuntu install in KVM froze while doing Update Manager, and now my install is borked
[05:49] <HorizonXP> i got back to a GUI and have a network connection with working apt-get
[05:49] <dougmmms> mase_work, ah right
[05:49] <dougmmms> guess i jumped the gun (to 9.04) a bit early :P
[05:49] <mase_work> yeh
[05:50] <mase_work> its in development
[05:50] <dougmmms> i know
[05:50] <dougmmms> i was curious
[05:50] <mase_work> and jaunty isn't designed to be LTS either
[05:50] <HorizonXP> apparently there are issues with some packages not being configured yet?
[05:50] <mase_work> so its not guaranteed to not break a whole bunch of stuff
[05:50] <rww> Lint01: the new version of fglrx only supports R600 and higher cards. The x1300 is a R520 card.
[05:50] <dougmmms> mase_work, wait now... you're saying any non-LTS release could result in a completely unusable system?
[05:51] <rww> Lint01: The release notes at http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/904overview#X.Org%20server%201.6 have more information about this.
[05:51] <dougmmms> canonical certainly doesn't advertise that
[05:51] <mase_work> dougmmms: not completely unusable
[05:51] <mase_work> it will be useable
[05:51] <dougmmms> i understand that this is an RC
[05:51] <dougmmms> and not stable
[05:51] <mase_work> they don't want regressions but there are gonig to be some
[05:51] <mase_work> some people won't want to upgrade to jaunty
[05:51] <mase_work> intrepid will be better for them
[05:52] <dougmmms> i actually had more regressions in the last LTS than any other release
[05:52] <mase_work> dougmmms: sure but they got fixed :)
[05:52] <J-_> Hrm, I don't how people are having so much problems with pulseaudio. I'm running it perfectly. I love it with the applet I compiled. I like how I can adjust each program per channel accordingly. But, what would rock even more is if I could do that in the default applet, WITH a 10 band EQ with preamp settings(similar to Banshee's EQ, but running system wide.
[05:52] <dougmmms> mase_work, what's the point of calling it an LTS then? :)
[05:52] <mase_work> dougmmms: because thats exactly it
[05:52] <mase_work> it gets support
[05:52] <mase_work> if stuff is broken they continue to fix it
[05:53] <dougmmms> mase_work, i understand.  but all releases get support for 18 months.
[05:53] <mase_work> security yest
[05:53] <mase_work> yes
[05:53] <dougmmms> if you release an LTS, it damn well better work out of the box
[05:53] <crackintosh> is anyone running ati with jaunty? I havent been able to figure out of the offical proprietary ati drivers work with jaunty yet.
[05:53] <mase_work> bugfixes not necessarily
[05:53] <Lint01> rww: there's written that R5xx is supported by included driver with 3D, but it does not
[05:53] <mase_work> it usually gets put into the next +1
[05:53] <mase_work> hardy, the LTS is now rock solid
[05:54] <dougmmms> i'm sure it is
[05:54] <dougmmms> but that's a backwards philosophy
[05:54] <mase_work> how so ?
[05:54] <dougmmms> hardy should be rock solid right away
[05:54] <dougmmms> then regressions can begin in the next releases
[05:54] <mase_work> well it was /is for most people
[05:54] <HorizonXP> phew, i think i fixed it
[05:55] <mase_work> you can't rule out regressions
[05:55] <mase_work> you will always get regressions
[05:55] <dougmmms> ok, well, a few issues are fine
[05:55] <mase_work> you can't write non buggy software
[05:55] <dougmmms> very small ones
[05:55] <tacosarecool> hmm will having a swap file make ubuntu faster?
[05:55] <mase_work> yeh hardy was mostly small issues
[05:55] <dougmmms> nothing is perfect
[05:55] <mase_work> hardy had few regressions
[05:55] <mase_work> overall
[05:55] <mase_work> if you hit a few of them then you were unfortunately
[05:55] <crdlb> what you fail to understand is that a small issue overall might be a big issue for you
[05:55] <mase_work> unfortunate*
[05:56] <dougmmms> oh well, i'm not complaining, i like ubuntu
[05:56] <rww> Lint01: Take a look at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bugs and see if there's a relevant bug report already. If not, make one.
[05:56] <crdlb> until hardware manufactures stop being terrible, there will always be driver-related bugs
[05:56] <crdlb> and they're getting worse, tbh
[05:56] <hifi> Lint01: you have the same problem than I do?
[05:57] <mase_work> crdlb: this is true. we really need the companies to look after their own drivers in the kernel
[05:57] <dougmmms> one of my biggest complaints right now concerns firefox.  if you download a file w/out a known default application to open it, you're forced to go to /usr/bin/ to find the binary.
[05:57] <crdlb> eh
[05:57] <Leemp> Question: Is that Ext4 bug fixed with the RC? Thats my main concern. If it is, i'll be upgrading my main systems to 9.04.. if not.. heh
[05:58] <tacosarecool> no it will be fixed in final
[05:58] <Leemp> bummer, k
[05:58] <Leemp> thanks
[05:58] <dougmmms> brb
[05:58] <xangua> dougmmms: i have no issues with FF opening the downloads
[05:58] <crdlb> Leemp: why not just use ext3 :/
[05:58] <Leemp> crdlb: Because i want ext4 :o
[05:59] <tacosarecool> I
[05:59] <tacosarecool> oops
[05:59] <Leemp> crdlb: I'm going to do a fresh install of my entire system on ext4. I don't really want to upgrade the FS.. seems odd heh
[05:59] <crdlb> before ext4 existed, you were perfectly happy with ext3 :)
[05:59] <crdlb> think about that
[05:59] <Leemp> crdlb: Not really
[05:59] <rww> crdlb: because ext4 has a bigger number than ext3, so it must be better!
[05:59] <Leemp> crdlb: I'm actually eagerly awaiting a versioned fs :P
[06:00] <Leemp> crdlb: Thats like saying "Why upgrade to 9.04? Before that, you were perfectly happy with 8.10.."
[06:00] <crdlb> not remotely
[06:00] <crdlb> one is a filesystem, and the other is a large collection of software
[06:01] <HorizonXP> my indicator-applet stopped working
[06:01] <Leemp> crdlb: Both of which you have an opinion on, which allows you to make a decision to upgrade or not.
[06:01] <mase_work> just thank your lucky stars your not using windows, otherwise you would have NTFS
[06:01] <tacosarecool> , because certain new features of ext4 can also be used with ext3
[06:01] <HorizonXP> wait
[06:01] <Leemp> mase_work: +1
[06:01] <mase_work> or worse a Mac with HFS+
[06:01] <HorizonXP> LMAO
[06:01] <killedkillerb> is the sound going to be improved in jaunty or is it still a patchwork of broken drivers?
[06:01] <tacosarecool> so it will improve performance
[06:01] <HorizonXP> i just ddidn't know how it worked, nv
[06:01] <HorizonXP> nvm
[06:01] <mase_work> killedkillerb: the latter
[06:01] <tacosarecool> what is so special about hfs+?
[06:02] <Zarlan> what killed your indicator?
[06:02] <mase_work> tacosarecool: erm...well its special..in the special school way
[06:02] <mase_work> actually makes NTFS look decent
[06:02] <Leemp> crdlb: My main reason? I read its faster. Though i don't really want to upgrade the FS, so i want to do a fresh install. Which means backing stuff up, formatting, and copying over later. Why now (if i could?)? Because i'd rather get it done with.
[06:02] <HorizonXP> Zarlan: i'm running jaunty in KVM. it froze while doing updates, which borked a lot of packages. managed to fix them, but i thought indicator-applet was screwed up still
[06:03] <Zarlan> kk
[06:03] <HorizonXP> turns out, that i forgot that it only works when something like pidgin is open
[06:03] <Leemp> crdlb: Though, i do enjoy explaining my reasoning for upgrading.
[06:03] <killedkillerb> is 10.04 going to have sound fixed?
[06:03] <mase_work> Leemp: reiserfs is faster than ext3, so is XFS and JFS
[06:03] <crdlb> I give up, you're too far gone
[06:03] <mase_work> you can use them right now
[06:03] <Zarlan> yeah, I'm not sure how I feel about the indicator still, they fixed it a lot since alpha 2 though
[06:03] <mase_work> but i would still recommend ext3
[06:03] <Leemp> mase_work: Blech, i choose to use the more mainstream fs
[06:03] <HorizonXP> Zarlan: it's confusing to me. i closed pidgin, and I was like, wth, where'd it go?
[06:03] <crdlb> exactly, ext4 is _not_ mainstream
[06:03] <mase_work> Leemp: they are more mainstream that ext4
[06:04] <mase_work> ext4 is far from mainstream
[06:04] <crdlb> there is only one mainstream fs, and it is called ext3
[06:04] <HorizonXP> cuz i'm used to it showing up in the systray as its own icon
[06:04] <Zarlan> ext4 is about to be mainstream
[06:04] <tacosarecool> n ext4 filesystem can be mounted as an ext3 partition (using "ext3" as the filesystem type when mounting)
[06:04] <Zarlan> it's incorporated in most of the major distros now
[06:04] <Leemp> crdlb: So ext4 will not be the default in 9.04?
[06:04] <HorizonXP> ext4 is awesome. i've been running it on my gentoo machines for a few months now
[06:04] <mase_work> Zarlan: hmm its not mainstream till everyone is using it
[06:04] <Leemp> crdlb: 9.04 will not make ext4 mainstream? Its sticking with ext3?
[06:04] <crdlb> eventually, there will be a replacement for ext3 that is mainstream, and _then_ I will switch (... at a convenient time)
[06:04] <mase_work> which they are far from doing
[06:04] <HorizonXP> Leemp: that's correct
[06:04] <Zarlan> mase_work: by that logic only mainstream fs is NTFS
[06:04] <Zarlan> or maybe FAT32
[06:05] <xangua> Leemp: you will have the option to use ext3 or ext4
[06:05] <Leemp> HorizonXP: Well then perhaps i should take crdlb's advice and stick with what i have. God forbid i change anything.
[06:05] <xangua> just that ext4 is not going to be the default
[06:05] <mase_work> Zarlan: well mainstream in the  Linux world,
[06:05] <Zarlan> XD
[06:05] <HorizonXP> I don't see the harm in sticking with ext3 for now
[06:05] <mase_work> i would stay with ext3
[06:05] <mase_work> unless you dont' mind a regular re-install
[06:05] <HorizonXP> i think Ubuntu should make ext4 default in 9.10, and then have the bugs worked out so that it's default for 10.04 LTS
[06:05] <mase_work> and i cetainly wouldn't use ext4 for /home
[06:06] <Zarlan> Just because of stability? I haven't had any trouble running ext4 since alpha
[06:06] <Leemp> crdlb: I swear, it perplexes me that i have to explain my desire to upgrade something to someone. Perhaps if i knew you in real life i would loathe your personality to the point of understanding why you choose to argue "why not stick with what you have!", but perhaps its best i don't.
[06:06] <mase_work> Zarlan: you will :)
[06:06] <HorizonXP> what stability issues is everyone harping about?
[06:06] <crdlb> it's a filesystem
[06:06] <Zarlan> not yet, xorg is killing me but fs is trouble free. I'd even say it's sitting pretty
[06:06] <crdlb> that strikes me as the very last thing you play with
[06:06] <askvictor> I get a "Hash Sum mismatch" while apt-get updating - using two different sources.
[06:07] <Leemp> crdlb: I don't want to play with it. I want to use it when its stable. From the sounds of it, they intend that to be when 9.04 is released. Which im waiting for, as i said.
[06:07] <HorizonXP> Leemp: then use it. what's the problem?
[06:07] <HorizonXP> Leemp: when you're installing ubuntu, choose Manual disk partitioning, and take it from there.
[06:08] <Leemp> HorizonXP: crdlb. (Not really, i'm learning to ignore his kind.. but i have a sick desire to figure this point.)
[06:08] <Leemp> HorizonXP: I know.
[06:08] <Leemp> HorizonXP: This is an argument over an argument, if anything.
[06:08]  * HorizonXP goes back to studying. call me when something worthwhile comes up! :D
[06:08] <Leemp> HorizonXP: Agreed.
[06:09] <Leemp> Now.. off to bed.
[06:10]  * Leemp imagines crdlb saying "Why not stay awake? Its worked for you so far!"
[06:10]  * crdlb imagines Leemp not making terrible analogies
[06:11] <Leemp> Good luck with that one.
[06:11] <Leemp> :)
[06:11] <DanaG> s/analog/digital/ crdlb
[06:11] <DanaG> =P
[06:11] <DanaG> yeah, it makes no sense.
[06:11] <Leemp> crdlb: Keep trying though, assuming its worked for you so far.
[06:12] <Leemp> *sleeps*
[06:14] <tacosarecool> I'm going to see if I can get internet in kubuntu now
[06:17] <mattik> Is the flash and fglrx fixed already?
[06:18] <mattik> I can't install flash and fglrx doesn't work
[06:19] <voidmage> where does ubiquity make a log file?
[06:19] <td123> does anyone know a good screen recording program ( i want to capture a bug on screen)
[06:22] <voidmage> is anyone else having trouble with installing jaunty rc from the livecd?
[06:24] <fakeer> Please check what's wrong with newly installed wicd. It connects to wireless ntwork but not internet.   http://paste.ubuntu.com/152583/
[06:30] <dougmmms> using UXA has increased performance considerably
[06:30] <dougmmms> xorg, though, is still being a bit of a hog
[06:31] <td123> voidmage: I had no problems or bugs while installing the ubuntu rc
[06:31] <voidmage> hmm
[06:31] <voidmage> mine crashes near installing grub
[06:31] <voidmage> i'm currently running it in debug to get an actual log
[06:31] <dougmmms> i can play videos now without a hiccup every 5 seconds
[06:32] <td123> ok, make sure to pastebin your log and also report a bug :P
[06:32] <voidmage> what user information does the installer log in debug? i know it gets the password you put in but is there anything else i should know about?
[06:33] <td123> dunno
[06:33] <td123> just check it once you get the log
[06:38] <voidmage> yeah, it's crashing before it even gets to apport
[06:38] <voidmage> so nothing in /var/crash either
[06:41] <td123> voidmage: try running it from the console
[06:44] <dougmmms> ugh
[06:45] <dougmmms> xorg still consistently taking around 40-50% cpu.  glxgears reports hardware rendering. and invoking apport (sudo force_start=1 /etc/init.d/apport restart) doesn't bring up a crash
[06:58] <voidmage> durr, wrong error
[06:58] <voidmage> ran ubiquity from a root shell
[07:00] <Killeroid> can anyone tell me how i can reposition the new notification bubble/osd. It displays in the upper right corner of my screen but I want it to display in the lower right corner of the screen. (ps. I dont run gnome-panel)
[07:02] <bronson> Killeroid, dunno.  I'm getting ready to just turn it off.  It's useless.
[07:03] <bronson> When I get an IM, I can't click on the notification to pull up the window and, if it's any length, it disappears when I've half-read it.
[07:03] <bronson> It's a lot more distracting than the old way, that's for sure.
[07:03] <bronson> Well, distracting's the wrong word.  Laborious.
[07:04] <Killeroid> bronson: I would turn it off except i usually minimize a lot of my apps to the tray area ad the only way to receive notifications is through that notification daemon. I have no idea why they took out the old daemon. it worked perfectly
[07:04] <bronson> Old way: notification pops up, I click on it, hit reply, I'm back to work.
[07:04] <crdlb> you can uninstall it to use the old notification-daemon
[07:04] <xangua> at least the old one did not inmediatly dissapear
[07:04] <bronson> crdlb, really?  That's good news!
[07:04] <xangua> if you putted the cursor on it you could prevent to dissapear and have more time to read
[07:05] <crdlb> doesn't putting the cursor on it make it invisible? ...
[07:05] <bronson> xangua, that's the best part of the new one.  You get the cursor near it and it disappears.  PSYCH!
[07:05] <bronson> It's like it's taunting you.
[07:06] <Killeroid> crdlb: how? whats the package name of this new daemon?
[07:06] <crdlb> bronson: yes, you can just uninstall and killall it, and the old one should be spawned automatically
[07:06] <xangua> bronson: but when the message is larger
[07:06] <crdlb> notify-osd
[07:06] <xangua> it dissapear and i hve no time to read it completly
[07:06] <xangua> fortunately i can reinstall the old one
[07:06] <xangua> but notify osd just looks great!!!
[07:07] <xangua> i can't decide
[07:07] <voidmage> *crosses fingers for the right error this time*
[07:08] <Killeroid> hmm, someone mention my nick in an sentence. i want to see if this worked
[07:09] <Tefad> Killeroid: dongle.
[07:09] <bronson> Killeroid, does notification suck lesS?
[07:09] <Tefad> dongle: Killeroid.
[07:12] <voidmage> hrm
[07:12] <voidmage> same error
[07:12] <voidmage> "the uid 0 is already in use"
[07:12] <Killeroid> brb guys, need to restar x
[07:12] <Killeroid> *restart
[07:15] <voidmage> i also have the same error as in #160822
[07:16] <Killeroid> crdlb: thanks for the tip on getting rid of the new notification daemon
[07:17] <albech> i like the new notification
[07:18] <albech> i think it looks great and works sweet, so when you move the mouse over a notification it will become invisible
[07:20] <_motti_> hi guys.  I'm using a newly installed ubuntu 9.04 and I can't install mouse cursor themes I have downloaded from gnome-looks. I tried drag and dropping them to the appearance app and looks like it install the theme but when I go to the pointer tab I don't see the new theme. I tried two different themes and they both appear in my .icon folder after installation. am I the only one with this problem?
[07:32] <voidmage> and still the same error
[07:36] <voidmage> it could be a bad burn
[07:55] <icewaterman> how can i upgrade to jaunty? the standard way via the gui doesnt seem to work (i do not get the chance to upgrade to a release candidate)
[07:56] <icewaterman> i know how to do it on debian (modify apt files and do apt-get distupgrade
[07:56] <icewaterman> but i do not know if it is safe on ubuntu
[07:56] <AK_Dave> icewaterman: I personally do not recommend people to dist-upgrade to Jaunty.
[07:57] <icewaterman> AK_Dave: how then?
[07:57] <AK_Dave> icewaterman: It is my opinion that it is too easy to break a completely good system that way, and far easier to perform a cold install.
[07:57] <icewaterman> AK_Dave: no option for me
[07:58] <icewaterman> besides, i have a backup
[07:58] <cwillu> AK_Dave, how exactly is a reinstall better, when the worst case of an upgrade is that you, uh, reinstall :p
[07:59] <AK_Dave> cwillu: You can plan for it better. You know you're going to do it. You're not rescuing a broken system/
[07:59] <cwillu> i.e, "there's 10% chance you'll die from this infection, so if you don't mind, I'm going to murder you here and now"
[07:59] <AK_Dave> cwillu: I think that is a ridiculous comparison.
[07:59] <icewaterman> anyway, there is no gui way to upgrade to the release candidate, right?
[08:00] <cwillu> icewaterman, normal updates
[08:00] <icewaterman> cwillu: it doesnt show the release candidate
[08:00] <cwillu> icewaterman, "release candidate" is just the normal respository as of a particular time
[08:00] <cwillu> icewaterman, you don't upgrade to the release candidate
[08:00] <cwillu> icewaterman, you apply all the available updates, and then you _are_ running the release candidate
[08:00] <AK_Dave> cwillu: If you know EXACTLY what you're doing, if you plan, if you're prepared, if you have backups, and did I mention if you know what you're doing? Then slipstream a dist-upgrade.
[08:00] <icewaterman> but i am running intrepid now
[08:01] <cwillu> icewaterman, update-manager -c -d should do it
[08:01] <cwillu> I think the -c may not be necessary any more, but anyways :p
[08:01] <icewaterman> cwillu: k seems to work, thx
[08:01] <cwillu> AK_Dave, slipstream?
[08:01] <AK_Dave> icewaterman: Do you have a backup?
[08:01] <ugmoe2000> Has anyone seen any problems /w the new version of Vino packaged /w Jaunty?
[08:01] <icewaterman> AK_Dave: i believe i said so above
[08:01]  * cwillu presume he's not referring to taking an intrepid cd, applying the jaunty updates, and deriving a new cd from that
[08:02] <AK_Dave> cwillu: No, but I suppose I could be misunderstood that way.
[08:03] <icewaterman> AK_Dave: i wanna update now, because once the new version is out, a hell lot of people are going to upgrade and the mirrors are going to be slow.
[08:03] <cwillu> AK_Dave, that's the only sense in which I've ever heard the term used wrt software
[08:04] <AK_Dave> icewaterman: Once Jaunty is released, more mirrored servers will be carrying it.
[08:04] <cwillu> icewaterman, torrents are usually quite effective around release time though
[08:04] <icewaterman> AK_Dave: i upgraded from hardy to intrepid a week after the release and it was painfully slow.
[08:04] <cwillu> doesn't help apt-get alot though
[08:04] <icewaterman> cwillu: torrents require cds and cds arent known to be very fast either
[08:05] <AK_Dave> icewaterman: Do you know how to use Update Manager to find the fastest available server?
[08:05] <icewaterman> AK_Dave: yes, but it doesnt help if you are with a crappy isp
[08:05] <AK_Dave> icewaterman: torrents do not require CDs. You can install an iso to a usb stick.
[08:05] <AK_Dave> icewaterman: I cannot help it if you have a craptastic ISP. True.
[08:06] <cwillu> and if a cd is slower than an internet connection, I want to live in your country
[08:06] <icewaterman> AK_Dave: besides, another issue is that i have time to fix quirks NOW, while i do not have the time in a week
[08:06] <icewaterman> which is why i cannot upgrade in a week for more than two months, so i rather do it now
[08:07] <AK_Dave> icewaterman: Well, at least you're prepared to do a full restore of your existing Intrepid install if need be.
[08:07] <icewaterman> AK_Dave: yepp
[08:07] <icewaterman> bbl
[08:07] <AK_Dave> icewaterman: I'd rather scare you off of doing it ahead of time than read your rant IF it breaks.
[08:08] <icewaterman> AK_Dave: i have upgraded before, my hardware is not very exotic and i use my own kernel.
[08:08] <icewaterman> never had any serious problems
[08:08]  * cwillu points out that upgrades are fully supported
[08:09] <cwillu> irc experience tends to be a self-selecting sample, it's unsurprising that >50% of irc respondents will have had trouble, it's generally why they're here in the first place :p
[08:09] <AK_Dave> icewaterman: Sounds like you probably know what you're doing. Please accept my apology. Most people who have to ask how to dist-upgrade to Jaunty have no business doing so with non-release software.
[08:10] <AK_Dave> cwillu: True. Hang out here for a while and it is easy to get jaded with "zomg! upgrade bricked me!"
[08:11] <aLeSD> hi all
[08:11] <cwillu> AK_Dave, next time you see BUGabundo, ask him about bug #2 :p
[08:11] <cwillu> yes, we know ubottu.  It's a joke :p
[08:12] <cwillu> AK_Dave, most of the bug "work" I try to do is to make sure things are working so that the dozen laptops I've preinstalled ubuntu with won't feel the need to call me when their update breaks :)
[08:13] <AK_Dave> cwillu: I only worry about 3 netbooks, 1 laptop, 1 desktop, and 1 server.
[08:14] <AK_Dave> cwillu: But the laptop alone has 3 different installs on it.
[08:36] <JackWinter> icewaterman: once a new release is out, i change server for the repos and normally have full bandwidth.  tried to install jaunty yesterday and partman crashed on me, so i installed intrepid and did the upgrade.  went with no problems but that was a virgin install...
[08:42] <icewaterman> JackWinter: i'll find out soon.
[08:44] <icewaterman> JackWinter: the release notes have some issues mostly with intel hardware. luckily my system is fully amd
[08:56] <BUGabundo> guud morning
[09:10] <cryingtux> hi
[09:10] <cryingtux> im having issue with medibuntu repos
[09:10] <cryingtux> gpg key wont work
[09:11] <BUGabundo> cryingtux: works here
[09:11] <BUGabundo> did you run as mention on the wiki?
[09:11] <wgrant> cryingtux: You should ask in the Medibuntu channel.
[09:12] <rww> cryingtux: Have you followed the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu , including the command to install medibuntu-keyring?
[09:12] <BUGabundo> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu
[09:12] <BUGabundo> ohh rww beat me to it
[09:13] <cryingtux> BUGabundo , rww : i did but it keep on reporting bad sig error
[09:13] <BUGabundo> better restart
[09:13] <cryingtux> rww: will read what you suggested
[09:13] <BUGabundo> and also follow wgrant advice to ask on #medibuntu
[09:13] <BUGabundo> grr
[09:13] <BUGabundo> restart the process... not the PC lol
[09:14] <BUGabundo> by removing the repos sources
[09:14] <BUGabundo> and follow that wiki again
[09:14] <rww> cryingtux: If you have medibuntu-keyring installed and are still getting errors, please copy the entire output of the command that's erroring to http://paste.ubuntu.com/ and link to the page it creates here.
[09:15] <cryingtux> rww: http://rafb.net/p/H2NkZd84.html
[09:15] <BUGabundo> anyone using Firefox 3.6 and tabmixplus?
[09:16] <AK_Dave> 3.6 or 3.06?
[09:16] <Unksi> BUGabundo: i am, the dev version works well
[09:16] <BUGabundo> AK_Dave: 3.6
[09:16] <Unksi> of tabmix..
[09:17] <BUGabundo> Unksi: does midle click in a page reload with the URL in memory?
[09:17] <BUGabundo> it is not supposed to... just on the tab bar!!!
[09:17] <dmoyne> is it possible to test jaunty on ati radeon 4850 hd
[09:17] <Unksi> no, but i think i have disabled that a long time ago on my profile
[09:18] <Unksi> there is a setting for that in about:config somewhere
[09:18] <Unksi> try setting middlemouse.contentLoadURL to false
[09:20] <andor_> hi
[09:20] <andor_> is anybody running lpia on a netbook? are there downsides compared to i386 builds?
[09:20] <uda> hey. looking for tips to get twinview working agin on this jaunty machine. it was working, and i disabled one monitor, now it isnt recognised as being there at all. been trying to fix this for about an hour. oh yeh, i have -no- xorg.conf file, how the crap is x able to even start like that?
[09:21] <rww> cryingtux: I just added medibuntu myself with the first command on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu (the one under "Any Ubuntu Release and keyring") and it worked fine, so I'm not sure what your problem is. Please 1) ask in #medibuntu 2) do not use Ubuntu channels for technical support with Linux Mint in the future (and if you're not running Mint, remove its repositories from your sources.list file).
[09:21] <rww> !mintsupport | cryingtux
[09:21] <cryingtux> http://rafb.net/p/7mLlnb76.html
[09:21] <cryingtux> did this as you said, still i get the error
[09:21]  * rww kicks ubottu
[09:22] <BUGabundo> Unksi: but that would also remove from tab bar !
[09:22] <topyli> uda: xorg.conf is empty by default, X is configured on the fly based on the hardware it finds
[09:22] <topyli> ideally :)
[09:22] <BUGabundo> andor_: some devs recommend to ue 386
[09:22] <uda> topyli, righto. i guess that makes sense.
[09:22] <uda> still cant get this bloody twinview going again :(
[09:22] <Unksi> BUGabundo: ok, thats the only solution i know :)
[09:23] <BUGabundo> andor_: let me get you the link to the mail where I requested extra info on this
[09:23] <BUGabundo> andor_: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-mobile/2009-April/002441.html
[09:24] <andor_> BUGabundo: thanks. lpia would be so much nerdier...
[09:24] <BUGabundo> and anybody else wanting to know more on LPIA vs i386 ^^^^^^^^^^^
[09:24] <rww> there we go
[09:24] <cryingtux> rww: im asking at medibuntu now
[09:24] <BUGabundo> andor_: LPIA as several FTBFS
[09:25] <cwillu> uda, twinview with nvidia's driver is fairly easily configured via nvidia-settings
[09:25] <cwillu> uda, it can write out a file with the needed xorg.conf entries
[09:26] <uda> cwillu, yeh it was very easily configurable when it detected both monitors, now it only picks up 1
[09:26] <rww> Anyone happen to know if the UNR RC works in VirtualBox?
[09:26] <topyli> rww: i don't see why. it's just ubuntu
[09:26] <topyli> why not*
[09:27] <rww> also, if there's a .torrent for the iso file =/
[09:27] <andor_> BUGabundo: that sucks. in that case i'm gonna download the netbook remix.
[09:27] <andor_> BUGabundo: thanks again
[09:27] <rww> or img file, or whatever it is =/
[09:28] <BUGabundo> rww: there are both img and iso
[09:28] <BUGabundo> guess for VB or KVM iso is easier to setup
[09:28] <BUGabundo> cwillu: [[]]
[09:29] <rww> BUGabundo: I only see ubuntu-9.04-rc-netbook-remix-i386.img, not an .iso file
[09:29] <cwillu> BUGabundo, poke?
[09:29] <BUGabundo> rww: correct. seems "they" removed it
[09:30]  * BUGabundo puts a massive poke above the Atlantic Ocean to poke cwillu back
[09:30] <BUGabundo> rww: there used to be
[09:30] <BUGabundo> either failed to build or some forgot
[09:34] <encmonkey> Does anyone happen to know if 9.04 breaks ethernet bonding?  I just tried upgrading a 8.10 64bit to 9.04 and the bond interfaces all went away..
[09:35] <BUGabundo> encmonkey: maybe something to do with NMs manage mode?
[09:35] <encmonkey> this is on a server install - pretty minimal.
[09:35] <BUGabundo> popup on #ubuntu-mozillateam and ask asac when he is there
[09:35] <encmonkey> does NM even get installed?
[09:35]  * BUGabundo wonders if minimal brings NM
[09:35] <BUGabundo> encmonkey: dpkg -l | grep networkmanager
[09:36] <encmonkey> yah - was just looking.  Nope - networkmanager doesn't get installed
[09:37] <BUGabundo> then its not NM
[09:37] <BUGabundo> humm firewall?
[09:37] <BUGabundo> ufw?
[09:37] <encmonkey> nope - disabled
[09:37]  * BUGabundo wonder if server without FW is a good idea
[09:38] <BUGabundo> encmonkey: try asking in #ubuntu-devel or #ubuntu-server
[09:38] <BUGabundo> and let us know the result!
[09:38] <encmonkey> there is no bonding stuff in the /proc/net dir either
[09:38] <BUGabundo> ask or file a bug!
[09:38] <encmonkey> server is for test on private lan :)
[09:38] <encmonkey> ok - will try there - thanks!
[09:42] <aLeSD> hi all
[09:42] <aLeSD> I'd like to add a terminal line on the startup : setpci -v -s '01:06.0' latency_timer=0xff
[09:42] <aLeSD> where I have to put it ?
[09:47] <andor_> aLeSD: init scripts are in /etc/init.d, and links to them are in /etc/rcX.d/
[09:48] <andor_> aLeSD: you'd want a script in /etc/init.d and a link to it in /etc/rc2.d. if you could call the link S99setpci, the script is run at the end of the system startup
[09:49] <aLeSD> andor_: thanks
[09:56] <cyclothunder> hello everyone :)
[09:56] <cyclothunder> can someone help me? plz. i've just installed ubuntu 9.04 rc on my laptop. it's all good except for wifi. my card is intel 4965agn, the driver apears to be loaded and when i do "iwconfig" i can see the wifi card. but when i go to network manager, it says wireless is disabled. don't know what to do.
[09:56] <BUGabundo> cyclothunder: hey
[09:56] <cyclothunder> help!!
[09:57] <BUGabundo> cyclothunder: right click on NM icon and enable wifi ?
[09:57] <BUGabundo> or see if the wifi button is ON
[09:57] <cyclothunder> its grey out.
[09:57] <cyclothunder> can't click on it
[09:57] <BUGabundo> then wifi is disabled
[09:57] <BUGabundo> don't you have a button or Fn+F2?
[09:58] <cyclothunder> when i do fn + f6 it does nothing
[09:58] <BUGabundo> sometimes it requires to be done on boot
[09:58] <BUGabundo> or enabled on BIOS
[09:58] <BUGabundo> its a kernel bug
[09:59] <BUGabundo> bug 105420
[09:59] <cyclothunder> on BIOS i can't change anything about it
[09:59] <BUGabundo> bug 193970
[09:59] <BUGabundo> that's the one
[09:59] <cyclothunder> checking... hope there is a fix :)
[10:00] <BUGabundo> cyclothunder: do you have any other OS?
[10:00] <BUGabundo> sometimes enabling it on Windows, fixes it... but I don't use wind
[10:00] <cyclothunder> not now but used to have windows
[10:01] <BUGabundo> well sometimes just trying to enable it during boot works!
[10:01] <BUGabundo> I never disable mine, just in case!
[10:02] <BUGabundo> took me months to get it working
[10:02] <cyclothunder> i'll try now :)
[10:03] <cyclothunder> my laptop doesn't have a switch, it's just fn+f6 for on and off :(
[10:04] <cyclothunder> no luck :(
[10:04] <BUGabundo> humm ekiga just coredump.... not nice
[10:04] <cyclothunder> there must be a workaround
[10:04] <BUGabundo> cyclothunder: its called a soft kill switch
[10:05] <BUGabundo> humm there used to be possible to echo a flag to the kill switch
[10:05] <BUGabundo> apw: ping
[10:05] <BUGabundo> apw: is there a workaround to enable wifi cards with no hard button ?
[10:06] <BUGabundo> cyclothunder: nothing on that bug ?
[10:06] <cyclothunder> not really :(
[10:07] <aLeSD> andor_: it works
[10:08] <cyclothunder> BUGabundo: i'm trying the workaround on the lauchpad , but so far nothing
[10:16] <cyclothunder> BUGabundo: no luck. i've tried "sudo rmmod iwl4965" and then "sudo moprobe iwl4965". the modprobe runs ok but the rmmod tell me "does not exit in /proc/modules"...
[10:17] <cwillu> cyclothunder, if the rmmod fails, then the module probably wasn't loaded originally
[10:18] <CQ> hello, I have a wlan with a hidden SSID which is set to autoconnect, but it never connects, the last lien in /var/log/messages is ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready  ... any ideas?
[10:18] <cwillu> BUGabundo, iwconfig <eth#> txpower auto/off should turn the transmitter on and off, might have some use
[10:18] <CQ> running latest 9.04, and connecting to visible SSIDs is no problem...
[10:18] <cwillu> BUGabundo, actually, on/off, auto is something else
[10:19] <BUGabundo> who summons the Lord?
[10:19] <BUGabundo> cwillu: not on this soft kill switchs
[10:19] <BUGabundo> took me months to get it working
[10:20] <BUGabundo> only 2 months after I bough the laptop I found it was both kernel and HW related
[10:20] <cyclothunder> BUGabundo: what were your steos to make this work?
[10:20] <BUGabundo> the card was broken
[10:20] <BUGabundo> replaced it and then I waited for the kernel fix
[10:20] <BUGabundo> cyclothunder: I echoed into the kill_rf
[10:21] <BUGabundo> and now kernel has it fixed for me
[10:21] <BUGabundo> cyclothunder: try to install the backports kerneç
[10:21] <cyclothunder> don't know how to do that :(
[10:21] <BUGabundo> *kernel
[10:21] <cyclothunder> humm
[10:21] <BUGabundo> let me grep my cheat codes
[10:21] <cyclothunder> ok
[10:24] <BlackDex> Hello there
[10:25] <BlackDex> is there a problem with one of the latest updates concerning networking?
[10:25] <BlackDex> I have a continues upload
[10:26] <BlackDex> I have an 100MB/s connection, and the "System Monitor" is reporting an speed of 1GB/s
[10:26] <BlackDex> and even 2GB/s
[10:27] <cwillu> BlackDex, seems fine here
[10:27] <BlackDex> i also can't pin-point what app is causing this
[10:28] <BlackDex> with wireshark i don't see strange outgoing connections
[10:28] <BlackDex> i installed etherape, also no strange things..
[10:30] <BlackDex> i can't remember which updates installed this morning..
[10:30] <BlackDex> Is there a way to see this?
[10:31] <killedkillerb> is wifi support improved in jaunty? im considering it for netbook installation and my previous experience with wifi in ubuntu has been frustrating to say the least
[10:32] <eagles0513875> killedkillerb: what kinda wifi card we talking about
[10:32] <killedkillerb> broadcom
[10:32] <eagles0513875> what model
[10:32] <killedkillerb> 1 sec
[10:32] <eagles0513875> i have a bcm 4311 rev2 and all i needed to install was the bw43-fwcutter and it was fine
[10:32] <BlackDex> found the installed log.. Nothing strange there that connects to networking
[10:32] <cwillu> killedkillerb, specifics are important:  for many people, wireless has been flawless for years now
[10:32] <eagles0513875> there were patches taht were needed but they included them into the kernel for jaunty
[10:32] <killedkillerb> 802.11g
[10:33] <eagles0513875> killedkillerb: you on linux right now
[10:33] <cwillu> killedkillerb, no, you need a chipset
[10:33] <cwillu> a nunber like "bcm4318"
[10:33] <killedkillerb> im on xp now
[10:33] <eagles0513875> killedkillerb: that doesnt tell me anything that just tells me the speed it runs at
[10:33] <cwillu> s/nunber/number/
[10:33] <killedkillerb> still working on setting up a pxe server
[10:33] <cwillu> killedkillerb, what's the exact model of the laptop?
[10:33] <killedkillerb> inspiron mini 9
[10:33] <cwillu> might be able to find the chipset from that
[10:34] <eagles0513875> killedkillerb: hold on
[10:34] <cwillu> there's a dell supported netbook remix for that
[10:34] <lanoxx> Is it likely that the i965 bug will be fixed until jaunty final release? if not will the release be delayed?
[10:34] <cwillu> lanoxx, which bug
[10:35] <lanoxx> cwillu, there are only 3 critical bugs atm, one it the intel bug
[10:35] <lanoxx> s/it/is
[10:35] <CQ> wtf, if apt-cache-search returns network-manager-gnome, why does apt-get install say Couldn't find package network-manager-gnome ???
[10:35] <cwillu> lanoxx, afaik, dri may be disabled for somechipsets for release, and the fixes that allow reenabling it will be released in an sru
[10:36] <cwillu> lanoxx, afaik, the intel bug is a fairly broad umbrella bug;  there's lots of current intel issues that are pretty severe
[10:36] <lanoxx> cwillu, is it even sure at the moment what exactly is causing the crashes?
[10:36] <eagles0513875> killedkillerb: seems like it already comes with ubuntu installed on it
[10:36] <mirk> does anyone have problems using gnome do running jaunty? is just reinstalled it but it still says: Unhandled Exception: System.InvalidOperationException: Could not read add-in description
[10:36] <killedkillerb> no
[10:36] <killedkillerb> im running xp
[10:36] <killedkillerb> im on it now
[10:36] <eagles0513875> killedkillerb: ahhhh ok have you tried the netbook version of kubuntu
[10:37] <cwillu> killedkillerb, yes, but you can also get it with ubuntu installed, which means that there's wireless support for it
[10:37] <killedkillerb> still working on setting up a pxe on my ubuntu desktop
[10:37] <cwillu> or should be at least
[10:37] <killedkillerb> this is second hand
[10:37] <eagles0513875> killedkillerb: i would get the netbook version
[10:37] <cwillu> lanoxx, it sounded like things have been nailed down, but it's a question of how best to do it:  a few of the approaches caused other regressions
[10:37] <eagles0513875> !netbook | killedkillerb
[10:38] <killedkillerb> im planning on it
[10:38] <eagles0513875> killedkillerb: you dont need pxe there is a way you can create a bootable usb key and boot off of that instead
[10:38] <eagles0513875> killedkillerb: a live cd on usb
[10:38] <eagles0513875> !unetbootin | killedkillerb
[10:38] <killedkillerb> im wanting to set up a pxe server anyway
[10:39] <Flynsarmy> Is it worth switching to ext4 for jaunty? are there any hidden issues with it that might screw me over?
[10:39] <cwillu> Flynsarmy, I'd suggest against it for the moment
[10:39] <lanoxx> cwillu, hmm, i see, but the more insteresting question is how big of a show stopper this bug is and how likely it is that its being fixed in time, i wouldnt want to upgrade and then have all the crashes (i have an i965)
[10:39] <mirk> problem solved. just had to run: $ rm -rf ~/.local/share/gnome-do
[10:39] <cwillu> Flynsarmy, bug #330824
[10:39] <killedkillerb> im gonna try to figure out my chipset here quick
[10:39] <eagles0513875> killedkillerb: ahhh gotcha just giving ya a heads up if you cant wait to get ubuntu installed on it
[10:40] <cwillu> lanoxx, the plan is to disable dri if needed for release, which seems to be eliminating the crashes (but also eliminating compiz et al)
[10:40] <ActionParsnip> yo yo yo
[10:40] <cwillu> Flynsarmy, the dataloss issues have been fixed a while ago, there's just an open question with that bug
[10:41] <cwillu> Flynsarmy, not everyone experiences (part of the problem is that some of the relevant developers don't have machines that experience it)
[10:41] <cwillu> ... experiences the bug
[10:41] <eagles0513875> morning ActionParsnip
[10:42] <ActionParsnip> hi eagles0513875
[10:42] <lanoxx> cwillu, hmm, thats a bad fix :( but u mentioned that it would be subsequently added through a SRU once the bug is fixed, when can that be expected?
[10:42] <eagles0513875> nice to see alot of people on jaunty already
[10:43] <killedkillerb> i had it running on my netbook from a thumb drive
[10:43] <cwillu> lanoxx, there's no schedule for it, but I'd expect it to be a pretty high priority
[10:43] <cwillu> maybe a few weeks out
[10:43] <killedkillerb> couldnt do anything with wifi tho
[10:43] <lanoxx> ok, im gonna put the rc on a usb key and give it a try, maybe i can contribute some bug reports to speed up the process
[10:44] <cwillu> killedkillerb, from the thumb drive, the output of "lspci|grep -i net" will tell you the exact chipset, which will help
[10:45] <killedkillerb> noted
[10:46] <BUGabundo> bbl. need to get  work done
[10:48] <ActionParsnip> lanoxx: good way to test new releases
[10:48] <moonflux> I'm trying to debug a crash in libqt4-dbus (so it seems), triggered by plasma. I think I've got all the needed -dbg packages but the backtrace looks useless. can somebody have a look? gdb output is here: http://kde.pastey.net/112470
[10:49] <CQ> lanoxx: look at http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ for USB creation...
[10:50] <lanoxx> CQ, does that work better than the tool thats included with intrepid? in system->admin...->Create bootable usb key
[10:51] <CQ> don't know, but i've used it a bunch of times without problem...
[10:55] <lanoxx> hmm i firste have to load the rc, just noticed that i only have the beta. but i just noticed a strange thing, when i try to download the .torrent file with firefox it only offers me Ktorrent to open the file, but not Transmission (the gnome one) eventhough in the gnome settings i choose transmission to open .torrent files
[10:56] <BUGabundo> bug?
[10:59] <TychoQuad> can someone quickly tell me how to switch to UXA?
[11:00] <drbobb> ugh, looks like there's little hope i'll be able to run newer versions of ubuntu, or probably anything with Xorg, on my old laptop  - support for SiS graphics chips is broken
[11:01] <maccam94> does firefox bog down anyone else's system?
[11:01] <maccam94> my hard drive keeps churning
[11:01] <ActionParsnip> lanoxx: what web browser are you using?
[11:01] <icewaterman> cwillu: upgrade went fine, though i now have a package listed as ^pc in dpkg -l
[11:01] <ActionParsnip> maccam94: yep firefox always bogs down my system.
[11:01] <albech> maccam94, when?? when you launch it or after a while
[11:02] <ActionParsnip> maccam94: s'why i rarely use it
[11:02] <icewaterman> how can i get rid of a package that is no longer there but dpkg thinks it is
[11:02] <maccam94> albech: whenever i interact with it
[11:02] <BUGabundo> my firefox 3.6 runs just fine
[11:02] <albech> maccam94, ok, thats not what i experience
[11:02] <ActionParsnip> icewaterman: sudo dpkg -Pr <package name>
[11:03] <maccam94> i don't think it does it right when i open it though
[11:03] <lanoxx> ActionParsnip, Firefox 3.0.8
[11:03] <maccam94> but switching tabs, loading new pages, etc, causes the hard disk to churn and the system to slow to a crawl
[11:04] <ActionParsnip> lanoxx: have you changed the app that is used for .torrent file in firefox settings
[11:04] <lanoxx> ActionParsnip, on gnome and I set Transmission as the default app (with rightclick on a torrent file-> open with -> Transmission)
[11:04] <icewaterman> ActionParsnip: -r says i should use -P and -P fails because the conf files are no longer there
[11:05] <cwillu> maccam94, if you've got large amount of other io (torrent, file download, etc), you might be seeing firefox fsync's causing that to get flushed out to disk (artifact of how journalling happens on ext3)
[11:05] <cwillu> maccam94, if you start firefox -P, and create a new profile, does it still show the problem?
[11:05] <maccam94> all i've got running is: pidgin, compiz, avant-window-navigator, and firefox
[11:06] <maccam94> this is a fresh install
[11:06] <cwillu> maccam94, there's going to be a small amount of data written to the drive for nearly any firefox operation, but that shouldn't cause the system to bog down
[11:07] <ActionParsnip> icewaterman: try sudo apt-get --purge remove <app name>
[11:08] <ActionParsnip> maccam94: does the system run ok with firefox not running?
[11:08] <lanoxx> ActionParsnip, ok now it works, i had to set /usr/bin/transmission in the open with settings of firefox
[11:08] <icewaterman> ActionParsnip: says it cannot be removed as it is no longer installed *grml*
[11:09] <maccam94> it's taking forever to close... (ps ax | grep firefox says its status is D, isn't that disk io?)
[11:09] <cwillu> that's uninterruptable for some reason, not necessarily io
[11:09] <cwillu> maccam94, anything suspicious show up at the end of /var/log/kern.log?
[11:11] <maccam94> Apr 17 06:05:43 inspiron kernel: [86751.876585] TCP(wget:22362): Application bug, race in MSG_PEEK.
[11:11] <maccam94> i dunno what would be using wget...
[11:11] <ActionParsnip> icewaterman: then reinstall it to remove it again
[11:12] <lanoxx> QPrime,
[11:12] <maccam94> cwillu: now that it's closed, the system seems to run ok
[11:13] <maccam94> nvm
[11:13] <maccam94> it seems like opening things requires an excessive amount of hard disk activity
[11:13] <maccam94> wow even alt tabbing
[11:14] <moonflux> is it just me or doesn't this apt dependency whining make any sense? http://pastey.net/112472 (I followed https://wiki.kubuntu.org/DebuggingProgramCrash)
[11:15] <lanoxx> CQ, is this netbootui better?
[11:16] <ActionParsnip> moonflux: i'd head into /var/cache/apt and use sudo dpkg --force-all -i <deb name> to force install all the debs in there, its a bit brute force but should be fine
[11:17] <moonflux> ActionParsnip: kthx, will have a try
[11:17] <maccam94> cwillu: stumped?
[11:18] <ActionParsnip> moonflux: its the weakness in package based systems
[11:20] <moonflux> ActionParsnip: to me the versions look ok. hmm... any idea how to fetch the package with apt-get? 'apt-get install --download-only' doesn't do anything except complaining
[11:20] <moonflux> guess I'll just download it directly from the pool
[11:24] <ActionParsnip> moonflux: you will have the deb already downloaded in your apt cache
[11:24] <ActionParsnip> moonflux: cd /var/cache/apt
[11:25] <moonflux> ActionParsnip: nope, apt-get checks the dependencies first it seems. /var/cache/apt/packages is empty (just cleared it)
[11:26] <ActionParsnip> moonflux: then try the install command again to redownload it to the cache, apt keeps them there until you clear it
[11:27] <mrwes> Got a bunch of updates this morning, including a new kernel -- kewl
[11:28] <moonflux> ActionParsnip: as I said, it seems to check the deps first, doesn't even try to download it
[11:28] <td123> let me guess, some ext4 stuff :P
[11:28] <td123> or intel
[11:28] <moonflux> ActionParsnip: got it manually from ddebs.ubuntu.com now anyway
[11:28] <td123> lol   * ext4: fix bb_prealloc_list corruption due to wrong group locking
[11:28] <td123>     - LP: #348836
[11:28] <td123> I guessed it correctly :P
[11:29] <ActionParsnip> moonflux: weird
[11:29] <moonflux> ActionParsnip: yeah. anyway, got it installed now, thx
[11:30] <ActionParsnip> nice
[11:31] <td123> oh man, these slow download speeds keep reminding me that the ubuntu release isn't far away :/
[11:33] <macvr> hi all... i'm unable to use certain web pages , while these pages open from windows! what could be wrong?
[11:33] <maccam94> hmmm i just disabled compiz + awn and the disk doesn't seem to grind anymore...
[11:33] <maccam94> i don't get why that would be...
[11:35] <jonaskoelker> Hi all.  When I apt-get upgrade, my grub config is not the default.  I spawned a shell to look at the situation; where's the new config file?
[11:36] <ActionParsnip> maccam94: then i'd ask in #compiz
[11:36] <maccam94> ActionParsnip: it's not a general compiz issue, this computer ran it fine in intrepid
[11:37] <maccam94> plus i don't see how it would directly cause the hard disk to grind
[11:37] <ActionParsnip> maccam94: well its adding a new process which will need access to your drive, try only adding compiz and not AWM
[11:38] <ActionParsnip> maccam94: if its still ok then you have narowed down the culprits
[11:42] <Newbee> hello
[11:42] <cwillu> td123, if your machine is stable right now, just wait for 2-3 weeks before you try to update again :p
[11:42] <cwillu> miss the rush :)
[11:42]  * cwillu hides from the misspelled newbie :p
[11:43] <Newbee> I made an upgrade from intrepid to jaunty and I want to use powerdevil now. So I can uninstall the old power tool as I guess?
[11:45] <|ns|nR8> so what happens to this chan when 9.04 is official
[11:45] <jonaskoelker> |ns|nR8: it starts discussing 9.10, I assume
[11:45] <jonaskoelker> since that would be the current-at-that-time meaning of "+1"
[11:45] <cwillu> |ns|nR8, everybody gets bumped to #ubuntu, and #ubuntu+1 becomes a redirect until the 9.10 release cycle starts in earnest
[11:45] <|ns|nR8> aww no fair
[11:45] <|ns|nR8> i like this chan
[11:45] <|ns|nR8> ubuntu is too fast
[11:46] <jonaskoelker> too fast?
[11:46] <cwillu> #ubuntu+1 will be back, don't worry :p
[11:46] <|ns|nR8> well you cant have a convo like we are now
[11:46] <jonaskoelker> I don't think short release cycles are a problem; it's poor releases that's the problem...
[11:46]  * cwillu pokes |ns|nR8 with a stick with lightning speed
[11:48] <|ns|nR8> i learnt a bit of a lesson with early releases
[11:49] <ActionParsnip> |ns|nR8: if you use peoples names at the beginning of a sentence the name will highlight, making it easier to read
[11:49] <|ns|nR8> yes ive noticed
[11:49] <|ns|nR8> hardly anyone isa talkinbg so its not necissary
[11:50] <cwillu> |ns|nR8, many of us are active in several channels, we won't even see the reply half the time unless you highlight
[11:50] <cwillu> it's just polite :)
[11:50] <|ns|nR8> ah well... i was only dribbling crap anyway
[11:51] <|ns|nR8> ive been using irc since the 90's...it seems its only polite on freenode
[11:52] <cwillu> yes, when you've got a bunch of related channels of different topics, several of which are _very_ active
[11:52] <|ns|nR8> see the chat window highlights red aswell when someone speaks in the chan
[11:53] <|ns|nR8> so you wont miss it
[11:53] <cwillu> yes, but again, that doesn't mean it's somebody I was talking to
[11:53] <|ns|nR8> i wasnt talking to you in general
[11:53]  * cwillu has 12 channels open, most of which are red
[11:53] <|ns|nR8> i was trying to start a convo with the chan or anyone
[11:53] <|ns|nR8> who wanted to talk
[11:53] <cwillu> well, as the person who's yelling at you... :p
[11:53] <tsimpson> you assume 1) they are using a GUI client, 2) that they have channel highlights on activity, 3) that it's red :)
[11:54] <cwillu> -> #ubuntu-offtopic might be better for this line of debate :p
[11:54] <|ns|nR8> well someone assumed i was using a gui first
[11:54] <|ns|nR8> using xchat
[11:54] <|ns|nR8> so i returned the favour
[11:54] <BUGabundo> cwillu: try to add 3 µblogs / SNs to that!
[11:54] <|ns|nR8> any other life lessons i need to be taught ?
[11:54] <cwillu> yes
[11:55] <|ns|nR8> can tell im not from this server hey
[11:55] <ikonia> maybe better to take it to #ubuntu-offtopic as suggested please.
[11:55] <|ns|nR8> i just dont fit in
[11:55] <cwillu> there's no space between "?" and the last word of the sentence :p
[11:55] <|ns|nR8> yeah well i came here to talk about ubuntu..but i get purcecuted instead
[11:56] <BUGabundo> |ns|nR8: calm down! what's up?
[11:56] <ikonia> |ns|nR8: then talk about ubuntu - I have not seen you mention ubuntu since joining the channel
[11:57] <eagles0513875> hi ikonia how are you
[11:57] <ikonia> fine thank you
[11:57] <cyclothunder> BUGabundo: you there?
[11:57] <|ns|nR8> yeah alright..i got everyone offside...have a nice day im going
[11:57] <BUGabundo> |ns|nR8: what happens to this # was already discussed yesterday, and last week
[11:57] <macvr>  hi all... i'm unable to use certain web pages , while these pages open from windows! what could be wrong?
[11:57] <BUGabundo> ppl seem more worried about it, then actual release
[11:57] <BUGabundo> cyclothunder: always
[11:57] <ikonia> macvr: using ubuntu 9.04 ?
[11:58] <macvr> ikonia: yes
[11:58] <cyclothunder> BUGabundo: :) i've just install backports and still no luck
[11:58] <BUGabundo> macvr: what browser?
[11:58] <ikonia> macvr: what pages and what is the error ?
[11:58] <macvr> BUGabundo: firefox
[11:58] <BUGabundo> cyclothunder: you need a kernel expert! try #ubuntu-kernel or #ubuntu-devel
[11:58] <cyclothunder> u told me before that u had to echo kill switch. can u give the steps needed ?
[11:58] <BUGabundo> cyclothunder: don't wonder if the reply takes a long time
[11:59] <macvr> ikonia: BUGabundo  i'm not able to post on launchpad , i tried opening a page at prometric but it doesnt open , while the rest of the pages open
[11:59] <BUGabundo> ahh forgot to find it
[11:59] <BUGabundo> doing it now
[11:59] <cyclothunder> no problem :)
[11:59] <ikonia> macvr: define "doesn't open"
[11:59] <cyclothunder> thanks
[12:00] <macvr> ikonia: the operation just times out... for example> in launchpad, when i try to post , it just says loading then, i get a white blank page...!
[12:00] <ikonia> macvr: if it's just a few pages it could be a problem with the site/webserver
[12:00] <BUGabundo> cyclothunder: so sorry for the delay; $ echo 0 > /sys/class/net/wlan0/device/rf_kill
[12:00] <BUGabundo> but the path may have changed
[12:01] <macvr> ikonia: i tired the same pages after booting into windows, but works in windows IE!
[12:01] <BUGabundo> macvr: do you have a link I can test?
[12:02] <macvr> BUGabundo: launchpad, pages open but i'm not able to post... try this page >  http://www.prometric.com/USMLE/default.htm < after i select the start , i need to select step1/2/3 but when i select it just times out!
[12:05] <BUGabundo> macvr: works fine here
[12:05] <macvr> BUGabundo: does the image of the USMLE display?
[12:05] <BUGabundo> yes
[12:05]  * BUGabundo worries that macvr may have conflicker virus eheh
[12:06] <macvr> BUGabundo: weird! i booted into my windows but the site works fine in windows7! conflicker for linux???
[12:06] <BUGabundo> LOL
[12:06] <eagles0513875> macvr: it doesnt affect linux
[12:07] <eagles0513875> macvr: what browser you using konqueror or some other browser
[12:07] <macvr> eagles0513875: firefox...
[12:07] <eagles0513875> could be a firefox bug
[12:07] <macvr> BUGabundo: eagles0513875  might it be a firestarter prob?
[12:07] <eagles0513875> whats the link to your site
[12:08] <eagles0513875> or the site you want to access
[12:08] <macvr> eagles0513875: try this page >  http://www.prometric.com/USMLE/default.htm < after i select the start , i need to select step1/2/3 but when i select it just times out!
[12:09] <BUGabundo> macvr: I see no reason for firestart make it not work, and allow others
[12:09] <bartmon> Hey! I'm considering upgrading to the RC from 8.10 but I'm not sure whether a compatible fglrx driver ships with it? Does it?
[12:09] <macvr> BUGabundo: eagles0513875 i use wifi, during boot firestarter stops and then again when i starts its says failed, i thought that it w
[12:09] <BUGabundo> bartmon: fglrx is in bad state
[12:09] <ikonia> bartmon: a drive is shipped with it
[12:09] <ikonia> bartmon: if it is compatible for YOU is a different story
[12:09] <BUGabundo> users are advised to test -ati driver
[12:09] <eagles0513875> let me try your page macvr i on wifi on me laptop right near me
[12:11] <macvr> BUGabundo: -ati driver works fine with compiz and all , but vlc the video displays in a separate window!
[12:11] <ikonia> macvr: how can you say that you don't even know what card he has to know if it works ?
[12:11] <eagles0513875> macvr: the site loaded for me
[12:11] <macvr> ikonia: i meant for me... ati
[12:11] <eagles0513875> macvr: how far away from the access point are you
[12:12] <eagles0513875> im not that far from the router meself
[12:12] <macvr> eagles0513875: no, other sites work fine...
[12:12] <macvr> i have full signal
[12:12] <ikonia> macvr: that site appears to have some quite strict session management in it
[12:12] <eagles0513875> macvr: the prometric site you are having issues with
[12:12] <eagles0513875> macvr: i just tried it in firefox naad it worked fine
[12:13] <macvr> eagles0513875: ikonia: what could be the problem, then? i tried opening firefox with a different profile too?!?!
[12:13] <eagles0513875> macvr: outa curiosity what kinda wifi card do you have
[12:14] <ikonia> macvr: I've just had it time out on a windows IE browser due to the web page expired, look at navigating around it has some very agressive session managment
[12:14] <macvr> eagles0513875: i'm haing this problem only since a couple of days..
[12:14] <eagles0513875> macvr: have you installed aall latest package updates i know there was a package update for firefox a day or 2 ago
[12:15] <macvr> eagles0513875: yup... sys up to date..
[12:15] <eagles0513875> ok strange
[12:15] <macvr> eagles0513875: is there any way to check history of updates?
[12:15] <eagles0513875> macvr: if there is im not sure
[12:15] <ikonia> I think you'll find it is a site issue
[12:16] <ikonia> in the way it's handling your session
[12:16] <eagles0513875> macvr: whats your network setup if you dont mind me asking
[12:16] <macvr> ikonia: i'v accessed the site previously with no  problems...
[12:16] <macvr> eagles0513875: ? i didnt understand
[12:16] <ikonia> macvr: yes, as have I, but I've also just had probles too
[12:17] <bartmon> Thanks for the warnings, I'll give it a go all the same. :D
[12:17] <macvr> ikonia: its not opening for u also?
[12:17] <eagles0513875> ikonia: could it be dns issue and the dns needs flushing
[12:17] <ikonia> macvr: yes, it does, but it also sometimes errors complaining of session time outs
[12:17] <ikonia> eagles0513875: I don't see how dns would effect session state data
[12:18] <eagles0513875> could it be that its having issues trying to resolve the name and its unable to find the site and eventually hits the time out
[12:18] <ikonia> then dns would fail - not work then fail for certain pages as it's the same TLD
[12:18] <eagles0513875> the page even loaded for me in konqueror
[12:19] <ikonia> "eve" ????
[12:19] <ikonia> even
[12:19] <eagles0513875> i tried loading the page in konqueror and i didnt get a time out
[12:20] <eagles0513875> macvr: have you cleared out the passwords etc of firefox
[12:20] <ikonia> oh come on
[12:20] <ikonia> next try a re-install ????
[12:20] <ikonia> approach it logically
[12:20] <eagles0513875> i am ikonia
[12:20] <macvr> eagles0513875: i tired everything, i even tried removing the .mozilla and used with a new profile!
[12:21] <eagles0513875> ok
[12:21] <AliTarihi> Hi... From time to time I'm experiencing Plasma Freeze
[12:21] <macvr> ikonia: what is weird is in launchpad i cant post a comment/file a bug either!
[12:22] <ikonia> macvr: interesting as that's also bound by session data
[12:22] <BUGabundo> macvr: can you test on stagging server?
[12:22] <BUGabundo> to not polut LP
[12:22] <macvr> BUGabundo: ? how?
[12:22] <BUGabundo> https://staging.launchpad.net/
[12:22] <BUGabundo> just choose a random bug
[12:22] <cwillu> macvr, you don't happen to have user-agent-switcher installed?
[12:22] <BUGabundo> its a test placve
[12:23] <macvr> cwillu: yes i have user agent
[12:23] <BUGabundo> macvr: https://bugs.staging.launchpad.net/geofft/+bug/359377
[12:23] <jpds> macvr: A history of updated packages is at: System -> Admin -> Synaptic, and from there: File -> History.
[12:23] <cwillu> macvr, and it's turned off right now, right?
[12:24] <macvr> cwillu but i'm not able to access for epiphany either!
[12:24] <cwillu> macvr, setting a different user-agent (such as ie) will break many sites if they're using it to determine what code your browser can run
[12:25] <ikonia> interesting so you can't access it from two seperate browsers
[12:25] <macvr> cwillu: i tried with default first, but also tried with IE, nothing worked
[12:25] <cwillu> macvr, definitely needs to be default
[12:25] <cwillu> but ya
[12:26] <macvr> BUGabundo: i get this site > https://staging.launchpad.net/ < as page load error!
[12:27] <macvr> BUGabundo: now it worked!
[12:29] <macvr> BUGabundo: but unable to post comment...
[12:29] <eagles0513875> macvr have you tried to purge firefox and its configuration
[12:30] <macvr> eagles0513875:  i tried removing the .mozilla folder and used with a new profile also ! how do u mean purge?
[12:30] <ikonia> macvr: you've said that, he's just getting random again
[12:30] <ikonia> plus you've also said it's more than one browser
[12:31] <eagles0513875> macvr: sudo apt-get purge firefox
[12:31] <eagles0513875> then sudo apt-get install firefox
[12:31] <Creative1412> guys when i update with synpatic  i get  E: The package cache file is corrupted E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
[12:31] <ikonia> how does that fix the other browser not working ?
[12:32] <macvr> ikonia: “securereg3.prometric.com” dropped the connection. this is the error from epiphany
[12:32] <cwillu> eagles0513875, ^^^
[12:32] <eagles0513875> fine ill shut up and going back to what i was doing
[12:32] <eagles0513875> and if he has a windows machine that sounds like a spyware or virus protection
[12:33] <motin_0> Hi, I am trying to run bootchart to see the gain in boot performance, but stop-bootchart is not run upon start of gdm or similar. the rc-links are there, but I have to manually run this after having logged in...
[12:33] <motin_0> any idea of how to fix this?
[12:35] <cwillu> BUGabundo, any suggestions for making screen capture videos?
[12:35] <cwillu> I vaguely recall you doing something with that?
[12:35] <BUGabundo> cwillu: vlc
[12:35] <cwillu> thanks
[12:36] <cwillu> Creative1412, one sec
[12:36] <mncat> Does it look like to use 9.04 RC like the final version? i mean is it stable right now ?
[12:37] <Creative1412> IT'S THE BETA
[12:37] <cwillu> mncat, I wouldn't be surprised to so some more updates before release, but yes, it's pretty close
[12:37] <Creative1412> THE BETA LOOKS LIKE FINAL VERSION
[12:37] <cwillu> still no guarantees that anything will work though
[12:38] <cwillu> Creative1412, cut out the caps please
[12:38] <bazhang> Creative1412, no need for caps
[12:38] <mncat> Creative1412: i know that its beta stop the caps
[12:38] <Creative1412> sry :S
[12:38] <mncat> i just asked a question
[12:38] <Creative1412> iforget the caps :S
[12:38] <macvr> ikonia: BUGabundo any ideas?
[12:38] <cwillu> Creative1412, try moving /var/cache/apt/pkgcache.bin and srcpkgcache.bin elsewhere, and running apt-get update
[12:38] <Creative1412> ok :)
[12:40] <mrwes> I keeping getting a partial upgrade error for the following package; http://img410.imageshack.us/img410/3556/screenshotupdatemanager.png
[12:40] <mrwes> anyway to fix that?
[12:43] <ikonia> macvr: apologies, was just way from my desk for a moment
[12:43] <Creative1412> cwillu: thanks that worked :)
[12:43] <macvr> ikonia: np
[12:43] <cwillu> Creative1412, goodie
[12:43] <cwillu> Creative1412, ext4?
[12:43] <Creative1412> yes i use ext4
[12:44] <ikonia> macvr: if you do the update from the command line you may get better output to why it's failing
[12:44] <macvr> ikonia: update? i had problem with web pages...
[12:45] <ikonia> macvr: sorry - got your mixed up with mrwes's post
[12:45] <mrwes> me you mean ikonia
[12:45] <mrwes> heh
[12:45] <ikonia> macvr: you're issue is quite frustrating/odd
[12:45] <shaga> anyone tried new rc on acer aspire one?
[12:45] <mrwes> The following packages have been kept back:
[12:45] <mrwes>   liblucene2-java
[12:46] <mrwes> shrug?
[12:46] <macvr> ikonia: someone was saying something about DNS, ?
[12:46] <ikonia> mrwes: kept back is normally a good thing, eg: its doing something
[12:46] <ikonia> macvr: yes, eagles0513875's mentioned flushing your DNS cache
[12:46] <macvr> ikonia: how do i do that?
[12:46] <mrwes> ikonia, hrmm..just never saw that
[12:46] <mrwes> ikonia, just leave it as is?
[12:46] <ikonia> personally I don't see it as a problem as if your cache is style it's always stale - not intermitant
[12:47] <ikonia> and if it's your DNS resolver - you can't control that, that's your ISP's responsability
[12:48] <macvr> ikonia: if its an ISP prob how am i able to access the pages when i dual boot into windows?
[12:48] <ikonia> macvr: I didn't say it was, I was explaining why I didn't think it was a problem with your dns
[12:48] <macvr> ikonia: ok...
[12:49] <macvr> ikonia: any ideas why i get the firestarter failed?
[12:49] <ikonia> firestarter failed ??? that's a new thing, you didn't mention firestarter
[12:50]  * cwillu kinda wishes firestarter was never mentioned in the release notes of any ubuntu release, just causes more problems than it solves
[12:50] <cwillu> if you need a firewall, you probably already _know_ you need a firewall

[12:50] <mrwes> I only turn mine on when I'm roaming with my laptop
[12:50] <mrwes> heh
[12:50] <eagles0513875> cwillu: im using kmyfirewall which is iptables firewall
[12:51] <mrwes> ufw is very easy to use
[12:51] <eagles0513875> but im having trouble getting it to install on my laptop
[12:51] <mrwes> ikonia, so just let that package error ride?
[12:51] <ikonia> mrwes: I wouldn't sweat it
[12:52] <mrwes> k -- thanks -- I'll be able to sleep tonight
[12:52] <mrwes> heh
[12:52] <macvr> ikonia:  i use wifi, during boot firestarter stops and then again when i starts its says failed, i thought that it was since the firestarter started before the wifi... sorry i had asked BUGabundo !
[12:52] <macvr> ^it starts
[12:54] <eagles0513875> macvr: i have had issues with it getting it to work
[12:54] <eagles0513875> i dumped it and am experimenting wiht kmyfirewall instead macvr
[12:54] <eagles0513875> !info kmyfirewall | macvr
[12:57] <macvr> eagles0513875: firestarter worked well in intrepid, guess ill give kmy a try
[12:58] <TychoQuad> my 3g modem is no longer working under jaunty, it worked fine under intrepid
[12:59] <cwillu> TychoQuad, did it work out of the box, or did you have to configure or tweak anything manually?
[12:59] <TychoQuad> under intrepid it worked out of the box
[13:00] <TychoQuad> i plugged it in and it went "hey! a modem! lets set it up!"
[13:01] <TychoQuad> from then on my isp would appear in the network manager list and selecting it would just connect. now plugging it in does nothing
[13:01] <mrwes> you check dmesg | tail after pluggin in?
[13:02] <Lounge> I just wanted to say Jaunty Jackalope is by far the best Ubuntu build I've worked with since Feisty Fawn. You guys did a fantastic job. The bugs during development have been very minimal and quick to fix. I've never experienced speeds and support for legacy systems as good as this before. You guys have really out done your selfs this time. Thank you for the awesome work...
[13:03] <Lounge> yes i know its only April 17
[13:03] <TychoQuad> it says a bunch of stuff about my modem, but that doesn't really help me
[13:06] <mrwes> pastebin the 'bunch of stuff'
[13:06] <TychoQuad> doing so
[13:06] <wirechief> Lounge considering the awesome number of bugs they had to start off with they have done a good job
[13:06] <Lounge> lol
[13:06] <Lounge> wirechief: the only critical bugs i noticed was udev
[13:07] <TychoQuad> http://paste.ubuntu.com/152752/
[13:07] <Lounge> but this system really flys
[13:07] <Lounge> flies fast
[13:07] <mrwes> yah gnone is very snappy
[13:08] <wirechief> Lounge a good read here http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/904
[13:09] <wirechief> Lounge evidently it flys too fast for usb sticks
[13:09] <mrwes> TychoQuad, looks like your modem is attacked to [17050.741813] usb 6-2: GSM modem (1-port) converter now attached to ttyUSB1
[13:10] <AliTarihi> I get time to time plasma freeze in Kubuntu 9.04. Anyone with the same experince
[13:10] <TychoQuad> which means absolutely nothing to me. so for some reason the network manager is broken?
[13:10] <AliTarihi> experience*
[13:11] <wirechief> TychoQuad: which version of network manager ?
[13:11] <Lounge> i have this system is using ext4 LVM ecryption, and there's no slowdown in read/writes
[13:11] <TychoQuad> 0.7.0.100
[13:12] <wirechief> hmm did everyone get the new kernel this am ?
[13:12] <mrwes> yah
[13:12] <TychoQuad> both my computers are using this network manager and both don't see the modem anymore
[13:13] <Lounge> reboot time for me
[13:14] <wirechief> TychoQuad:  ii  network-manager                            0.7.1~rc4.1.cf199a964-0ubuntu2
[13:14] <mrwes> TychoQuad, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/353631
[13:14] <wirechief> thats current
[13:16] <TychoQuad> wirechief, that's the one i have
[13:18] <wirechief> TychoQuad: ok well was that your bug 353631 or someone else's ?
[13:18] <TychoQuad> someone else's.
[13:19] <TychoQuad> adding my 2c
[13:19] <wirechief> TychoQuad: does that bug affect you the same way ?
[13:19] <TychoQuad> I'm kinda surprised that an advertised feature of the last ubuntu release is going to be totally broken by the very next one and noone noticed
[13:20] <TychoQuad> in that it connects fine, yes. as for the rest, i have no idea. i just use the gui
[13:20] <TychoQuad> i have no idea how to connect this thing manually
[13:21] <wirechief> TychoQuad: well i see that its undecided, if no-one else reports on it then it will sit for a long time, if i was having that trouble id jump on it and let em know.
[13:21] <mrwes> right
[13:21] <TychoQuad> already did
[13:25] <TychoQuad> so nothing else i can do at this point?
[13:25] <mrwes> I don't see a work-around
[13:27] <TychoQuad> :(
[13:27] <jtholmes> TychoQuad, you could google to see how to set it up manually
[13:27] <mrwes> TychoQuad, does lsusb show the modem?
[13:28] <mrwes> TychoQuad, try here http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-936658.html  might work
[13:28] <TychoQuad> yes it does list the modem
[13:28] <TychoQuad> checking page
[13:29] <dassouki> if i install 9.04 rc, would i have to update or reinstall when the official release comes out
[13:30] <TychoQuad> no
[13:30] <TychoQuad> you just update and you have the final
[13:30] <dassouki> oooh interesting
[13:30] <dassouki> thanks
[13:30] <wirechief> dassouki: 9.04 is a work in progress, if you want the latest fix's YES
[13:30] <TychoQuad> np
[13:30] <checkers> hey all, new new kernel in 9.04 doesn't detect the kb/touchpad on my laptop. has anyone else seen this?
[13:31] <mrwes> TychoQuad, might need gnome-device-manager to the the information on the modem
[13:32] <wirechief> checkers which kernel version ?
[13:33] <dassouki> thank u :D
[13:33] <checkers> 28
[13:33] <checkers> when I boot into 27 the kb/touchpad work
[13:33]  * checkers checks
[13:34] <checkers> yes, in 28 the kb/touchpad don't seem to even turn on, in 27 they are normal
[13:34] <wirechief> checkers Linux wirechief-laptop 2.6.28-11-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 17 01:58:03 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux is the current released kernel
[13:34] <mrwes> TychoQuad, use the gnome device manager to find out your modem vendor and device ID then use modprobe to activate it
[13:34] <TychoQuad> yep, doing that now
[13:35] <mrwes> k
[13:35] <TychoQuad> fatal: module usbserial not found
[13:38] <TychoQuad> the dude in the guide just happens to have the same modem i do, and the information i have for it, device and vendor id are the same
[13:38] <mrwes> hrmm...it appears that module is built into the kernel now
[13:38] <mrwes> sigh
[13:38] <mrwes> https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+question/65281
[13:40] <mrwes> that's the best I can come up with -- maybe they'll work on the bug soon :)
[13:41] <Trewas> I almost thought that ati's bad linux reputation was not warranted anymore, even compiz worked fine... until the third day when whole computer crashed when starting a video
[13:42] <TychoQuad> right, so they messed with the driver, and broke it in the process, so i need to wait for a kernel update where someone patches it?
[13:42] <Trewas> maybe I should go back to the open source driver and forget the bling
[13:43] <TychoQuad> if it really will work if the computer boots with it connected, that would be an acceptable workaround... but i of course would prefer it to work correctly :P
[13:43] <thiebaude> !x
[13:50] <coz_> still my monitor is going to sleep after about 15 minutes  with settings in powermanagement set to never  any solution?
[13:54] <wirechief> Trewas what ATI card ?
[13:55] <Trewas> wirechief: ATI Technologies Inc Mobility Radeon HD 3450, which is quite weird as this is a desktop (dell optiplex 760)
[13:56] <wirechief> Trewas there have been some work arounds not sure if they work for you ;) i have a X1300 and support for it is on the moon
[13:58] <Trewas> wirechief: this works with both the open source driver and fglrx but apparently the closed driver does not like xvideo
[13:58] <jamiejackson> where's networkmanager's applet in jaunty multi-user? i don't see it. if i try to run nm-applet i get "** (nm-applet:17126): WARNING **: <WARN>  applet_dbus_manager_start_service(): Could not acquire the NetworkManagerUserSettings service as it is already taken.  Return: 3"
[13:59] <wirechief> Trewas maybe its a DRM issue for them ;)
[14:00] <jamiejackson> oh, hmm. looks like the first user who logged in has the nm-applet, even though she's a user and i'm an admin
[14:00] <thiebaude> my 9.04 install messed up again
[14:00] <wirechief> thiebaude:  No X system ?
[14:01] <jamiejackson> i'll ask #gnome
[14:02] <thiebaude> wirechief: yea, x freezes
[14:03] <the_eraser> hi what will be changed until the real release?
[14:03] <Pici> bugs
[14:03] <the_eraser> k

[14:03] <the_eraser> :)
[14:04] <thiebaude> wirechief: i'am able to use blackbox
[14:04] <wirechief> thiebaude: did you try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg   ?
[14:04] <thiebaude> wirechief: no
[14:04] <thiebaude> i'll try that
[14:05] <wirechief> thiebaude: well if you try just answer the defaults and maybe it might comeback
[14:05] <thiebaude> ok
[14:05] <wirechief> thiebaude: since its broke now it might help
[14:05] <thiebaude> kewl
[14:06] <thiebaude> Use kernel frambuffer, wirechief
[14:06] <wirechief> thiebaude: i wouldnt for the first attempt
[14:06] <thiebaude> ok
[14:07] <wirechief> thiebaude: is that a lappy your playing with ?
[14:07] <thiebaude> dell optiplex gx-150 desktop i815
[14:07] <slashdotfx> which udev rules should I modify to make plugged in usb sticks to have permission of 0640?
[14:07] <slashdotfx> btw, I'm running ltsp
[14:08] <thiebaude> wirechief: i just finished the reconfigure
[14:08] <wirechief> thiebaude did you startx
[14:09] <thiebaude> wirechief: in a terminal
[14:09] <thiebaude> ?
[14:09] <wirechief> thiebaude:  sure just say startx as user
[14:10] <thiebaude> ok, at the login prompt?
[14:10] <wirechief> loging user  then startx
[14:10] <thiebaude> wirechief: i dont understand?
[14:11] <thiebaude> ctrl f2
[14:11] <wirechief> thiebaude: well if you are in a terminal enter startx
[14:11] <ideasman42_> hifi, Im installing ubuntu jaunty rc alternative on i386 and its taking a LONG time on "scanning mirrors"
[14:12] <thiebaude> ok, here goes
[14:12] <ideasman42_> hi*
[14:12] <BluesKaj> Howdy all
[14:12] <ideasman42_> I switch to a terminal where its sating...
[14:13] <ideasman42_> apt-setup: Get 25: http//.....  Sources
[14:13] <jamiejackson> no dice on #gnome so i'll ask again: how do you get the nm-applet (network manager icon) on the second (or third, etc.) session's panel?
[14:14] <ideasman42_> ah, call off the search! - its working now :) ... still, was very long downloading mirrors
[14:14] <wirechief> ideasman42_: it does that.
[14:14] <ideasman42_> would be nice if there was an option not to
[14:15] <coz_> any news as to when nautilus  open dialog is going to speed up :) ?
[14:15] <ideasman42_> eg - if you have dialup
[14:15] <ideasman42_> ok. dialup over DHCP not likely, but slow internet
[14:15] <wirechief> ideasman42_: i know. i pulled the rj45 cable out ;)  it stopped its foolishness and finished
[14:15] <ideasman42_> wirechief, I did that also but it hung longer
[14:15] <ideasman42_> I expect if would give up after long enough
[14:15] <wirechief> ideasman42_: you got it mad
[14:16] <ideasman42_> any people who package stuff here?
[14:16] <mbeierl> jamiejackson: just noticed the question - what do you mean by "second session"?
[14:16] <BluesKaj> ideasman42_, the repositories/mirrors are set for your location , sometimes thay are much slower speedwise than the the 'Main" repository.That's why I switched to it
[14:16] <ideasman42_> or is there a place to go to request people package stuff?
[14:16] <Pici> !newpackage | ideasman42_
[14:17] <ideasman42_> hrm. I was hoping somebody else would do it :)
[14:17] <jamiejackson> mbeierl: looks like the first user to login gets the nm-applet. i, as the second user to log in, don't.
[14:17] <ideasman42_> I dont really have the energy to package this... though guess I could do a personal package
[14:17] <ideasman42_> Some nice fedora person did a package for us :)
[14:18] <mbeierl> jamiejackson: oh, ok I get the question now, and I don't know enough about that particular applet, but I would guess that it is a case of first one in, wins, because network management is not something that can easily be shared.  This is an interesting question wrt multiple users and how to share resources
[14:19] <Pici> ideasman42_: Theres a link there on requesting that something be packaged.
[14:21] <jamiejackson> mbeierl: seems to be not a perfect strategy, as now I can't vpn
[14:21] <jamiejackson> or at least not through nm-applet
[14:22] <mbeierl> jamiejackson: but then imagine: you do have a vpn, second user logs in and now gets to use your vpn connection, or disconnect it, or...
[14:22] <mbeierl> jamiejackson: I'm not saying that it is correct, I'm just saying that it is a challenging problem to consider for the actual devs...
[14:22] <jamiejackson> mbeierl: yeah, i thought about that
[14:23] <thiebaude> wirechief: i didn't work
[14:23] <eagles0513875> hey Pici
[14:23] <eagles0513875> what has taken the place of the linux-kernel-devel  package in intrepid
[14:24] <wirechief> thiebaude: what graphics card does it use ?
[14:24] <thiebaude> wirechief: i815
[14:24] <thiebaude> intel
[14:25] <thiebaude> i can use blackbox
[14:25] <wirechief> thiebaude can you paste  cat /var/log/xorg.0.log |grep "(EE)"  to a pastebin ?
[14:25] <thiebaude> ok
[14:26] <thiebaude> no such file or directory
[14:26] <ideasman42_> LP is giving me a very simple bug report form, nowhere can I select "Needs Packaging"
[14:27] <Pici> eagles0513875: I don't know
[14:27] <eagles0513875> ok Pici
[14:27] <wirechief> thiebaude can you paste  cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log |grep "(EE)"  to a pastebin ?
[14:27] <eagles0513875> was to be honest asking anyone in room
[14:27] <wirechief> its X not x
[14:28] <thiebaude> ok
[14:28] <topyli> eagles0513875: was there such a package at some time? i don't remember one
[14:28] <topyli> you have -headers and -source
[14:29] <eagles0513875> topyli: this site https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile says there was
[14:29] <cwillu> eagles0513875, kernel-package?
[14:29] <ideasman42_> anyone want to change this bug type to "Needs Packaging"? - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/362921
[14:29] <eagles0513875> cwillu: im looking for linux-kerel-devel according to that site
[14:30] <cwillu> eagles0513875, you want kernel-package
[14:30] <eagles0513875> ya
[14:30] <cwillu> eagles0513875, read the note
[14:30] <cwillu> """Note: the linux-kernel-devel package does not exist in intrepid"""
[14:31] <eagles0513875> cwillu: did the build dependencies and it didnt pull anything guess i have what i need already
[14:31] <Pici> ideasman42_: looks like its tagged with needs-packaging to me
[14:31] <thiebaude> it doesn't come up in a terminal ,wirechief
[14:31] <ideasman42_> ah, thaught you needed to set some special dropdown settnig
[14:33] <topyli> eagles0513875: apparently someone at least things there was one. not in any currently supported releases though
[14:33] <eagles0513875> topyli: its been removed in intrepid and found the part of the how to that i need to follow
[14:33] <topyli> eagles0513875: once you figure it out, fix the wiki
[14:34] <ideasman42_> wow, jaunty boots in 15sec on my laptop :)
[14:34] <topyli> eagles0513875: it's not even on dapper according to packages.ubuntu.com :\
[14:34] <eagles0513875> topyli: what i overlooked is already on the wicki on how to do
[14:34] <mbeierl> Anyone seeing large amounts of memory "in use" but not by any application in specific after suspend/resume cycles?
[14:34] <eagles0513875> topyli: dunno much bout anything prior to edgy is when i got on the kubuntu train
[14:34] <wirechief> thiebaude did you use sudo as a prefix ?
[14:35] <topyli> eagles0513875: ah sorry, searchfail. it did indeed exist
[14:35] <thiebaude> no, but what is the command again,
[14:35] <wirechief> thiebaude can you paste  sudo cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log |grep "(EE)"  to a pastebin ?
[14:35] <eagles0513875> topyli: if you read the link it just got removed in intrepid
[14:35] <topyli> yes
[14:36] <thiebaude> ok
[14:36] <wirechief> !paste
[14:36] <CQ> wirechief: why not just grep "(EE)" /var/log/Xorg.0.log ? :)
[14:36] <topyli> it was just a metapackage that installed build-essential, git, rsync and ssh
[14:36] <wirechief> CQ that will work too
[14:36] <CQ> or sudo grep "(EE)" /var/log/Xorg.0.log ? :)
[14:37] <wirechief> CQ i would have to retrain my memory *g*
[14:37] <cwillu> wirechief, xorg.0.log is world readable, you don't need to sudo it
[14:37] <cwillu> CQ, you too :p
[14:37] <thiebaude> thiebaude@thiebaude-desktop:~$ sudo cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log |grep "(EE)"
[14:37] <thiebaude> 	(WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
[14:38] <CQ> maybe grep is set 600 ? :)
[14:38] <cwillu> CQ, if it was, you wouldn't be saying maybe
[14:38] <CQ> maybe not ... :)
[14:38] <cwillu> nor would your system be booting in all likelyhood :p
[14:38] <CQ> lol
[14:39] <thiebaude> i got 3 cd's here, now i got to decide which one to install
[14:39] <wirechief> cwillu: thiebaude is having problems getting X system to work
[14:39] <wirechief> cwillu he has intel i815
[14:39] <cwillu> he's always having trouble getting X to work
[14:39]  * cwillu checks the logs :p
[14:40] <cwillu> that said, thiebaude can you pastebin the entirety of /var/log/Xorg.0.log?
[14:40] <thiebaude> ok
[14:40] <thiebaude> permission denied
[14:41] <cwillu> ?
[14:41] <thiebaude> /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[14:41] <cwillu> that file really shouldn't be unreadable
[14:41] <cwillu> what command did you run?
[14:41] <CQ> thiebaude: paste ls -al /var/log/Xorg.0.log here ... should be one line
[14:41] <cwillu> pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[14:42] <cwillu> thiebaude, is this still re: 304871?
[14:42] <thiebaude> i think it is cwillu
[14:42] <thiebaude> 304871 says x freezes
[14:42] <OliverKrueger> HelloWorld
[14:42] <hifi> ATI Radeon 9600 Pro on Jaunty -> no DRI, anyone else having this problem?
[14:42] <thiebaude> i think i might stick to the LTS
[14:42] <cwillu> thiebaude, ah, you're one of those people commenting on bugs that are regarding a different chipset :p
[14:43] <cwillu> thiebaude, one sec, let me find the right bug for you :p
[14:43] <thiebaude> cwillu: yup
[14:43] <thiebaude> thanks cwillu
[14:43] <OliverKrueger> Are visual annoyances worth a bug report?
[14:43]  * wirechief gets bug jar out
[14:43] <cwillu> thiebaude, I'll still take your xorg.0.log though
[14:43] <cwillu> OliverKrueger, sure, why not?
[14:44] <cwillu> thiebaude, is it failing to come up at all, or is it just failing to come up with dri (acceleration) working?
[14:44] <thalias09> How can I help with the language/translation support in Kubuntu?
[14:44] <thiebaude> cwillu: after i log in then x freezes, but i can use blackbox
[14:45] <OliverKrueger> cwillu: I have a 2 monitor setup (twinview): minimizing Quassel via the systray icon an remaximizing it again replaces the window from the origin on the second monitor to the primary one.
[14:45] <bazhang> https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/ thalias09 may have info
[14:45] <cwillu> OliverKrueger, report it on bugs.launchpad.net though
[14:45] <OliverKrueger> ok
[14:45] <thalias09> bazhang, Good. I will there.
[14:46] <cwillu> thiebaude, is the normal session gnome or kde?
[14:46] <thalias09> s/I will there/I will look there/
[14:46] <cwillu> thiebaude, and please give me the output of:  sudo pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log; ls -l /var/log/pastebinit/Xorg* | pastebinit
[14:46] <thiebaude> cwillu: gnome
[14:46] <cwillu> thiebaude, compiz?
[14:46] <thiebaude> no,this card cant run compiz
[14:47] <thiebaude> got a link to pastbin?
[14:47]  * BUGabundo was going to make a question but this is packed today! latter maybe
[14:47] <cwillu> thiebaude, sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[14:47] <thiebaude> ok thanks
[14:47] <cwillu> BUGabundo, I'm high on caffeine, shoot :)
[14:47] <BUGabundo> cwillu: humm can you ask the OPs to add pastebinit to the past factoid ?
[14:48] <BUGabundo> but that was another question, just because of your last reply
[14:48] <OliverKrueger> cwillu: ah, found it: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/103146 sorry for the interruption. :)
[14:48] <BUGabundo> Question: anyone knows of a batch app to normalize audio ? I use mp3gain on wine
[14:48] <cwillu> OliverKrueger, goodie :)
[14:48] <mbeierl> BUGabundo: sudo apt-get install mp3gain
[14:48] <cwillu> !paste
[14:49] <OliverKrueger> the bug is there since feisty... :-(
[14:49] <mbeierl> BUGabundo: or did you already know that?
[14:49] <BUGabundo> mbeierl: didn't know
[14:49] <cwillu> OliverKrueger, poke it, mark it as affecting you (at the top), mention that it's still an issue in jaunty, etc
[14:49] <thiebaude> where is pastebinit at?
[14:49] <BUGabundo> DUH
[14:50] <cwillu> thiebaude, sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[14:50] <BUGabundo> mbeierl: thanks so much
[14:50] <cwillu> it's in the repository
[14:50] <thiebaude> cwillu: i did
[14:50] <OliverKrueger> cwillu: ACK
[14:50] <mbeierl> BUGabundo: I was using it under wine too (like about 2 years ago) and then "accidentally" typed it in without the wine in front, and voila, I "discovered" it was a native app :)
[14:50] <cwillu> thiebaude, okay, now run:  sudo pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log; ls -l /var/log/pastebinit/Xorg* | pastebinit
[14:50] <cwillu> the whole thing :p
[14:51] <thiebaude> thiebaude@thiebaude-desktop:~$ sudo pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log; ls -l /var/log/pastebinit/Xorg* | pastebinit

[14:51] <OliverKrueger> btw: I just installed Kubuntu 9.04 RC. looks great! good job! :)
[14:51] <cwillu> thiebaude, oops
[14:51] <cwillu> thiebaude, okay, now run:  sudo pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log; ls -l /var/log/Xorg* | pastebinit
[14:51] <cwillu> put an extra pastebinit in :p

[14:53] <thiebaude> in the terminal
[14:53] <cwillu> yes
[14:53] <thiebaude> ok

[14:55] <thiebaude> ok
[14:55] <cwillu> the hell?  how are you running xaa?
[14:55] <cwillu> one sec
[14:57] <thiebaude> ok, cwillu
[14:57]  * cwillu puzzles, he thought all intel's were using exa by default
[14:58] <ba5e> Hi all, installed Jaunty yesterday evening, I see there are new updates but update-manager is not coming up in the notification area
[14:58] <thiebaude> i prob have to edit xorg
[14:59] <httpdss> hmm strange redirection... tried joining kubuntu+1 and ended up in ubuntu+1, but im sure someone can help me out ... the problem is this, i solved some issue for nepomuk cuz it didint want to load sesame2 backend. that solved, when strigi starts indexing it says it will suspend because its affecting de resources... how can i force it to continue ??
[14:59] <cwillu> thiebaude, http://pastebin.com/d40f0b052
[14:59] <cwillu> thiebaude, lines 23 and 24, add to your xorg.conf, and then see if things fire up after you sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[15:00] <cwillu> httpdss, kubuntu+1 is ubuntu+1
[15:00] <thiebaude> ok thanks
[15:01] <thiebaude> what is the command to edit xorg?
[15:01] <thiebaude> sry
[15:01] <cwillu> sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[15:01] <thiebaude> thanks cwillu, i'll let you know what happens
[15:02] <httpdss> cwillu: ohh there is no rivalry then ;) any idea on what can solve my issue ?
[15:03] <cwillu> httpdss, no idea, I run gnome :p
[15:04] <ideasman42_> thx guys, jaunty running fine now.
[15:04] <ba5e> cwillu: any idea about my update-manager? is there some cron job I shoud check?
[15:05] <httpdss> cwillu: hehe ok i was on that side untill yesterday
[15:05] <thiebaude> cwillu: i do i save the xorg
[15:05] <popey> ba5e: update notifier is disabled by default in jaunty
[15:05] <cwillu> thiebaude, bottom of the screen should show the commands to save
[15:06] <thiebaude> ok
[15:06] <cwillu> ^=ctrl
[15:06] <ba5e> popey: ahh hehe! this is new behaviour for pre release versions isn't it?
[15:06] <popey> ba5e: you can manually start update manager from the system -> administration menu
[15:06] <popey> ba5e: no, new behaviour for 9.04
[15:06] <mrwes_> er
[15:06] <mrwes_> anyone seeing issues with Evince when scrolling through PDF's?
[15:06] <cwillu> ba5e, update manager window will open automatically once a week if there's normal updates, and once a day for security updates
[15:06] <cwillu> in the background though
[15:06] <mrwes_> doubling, tripling tesxt, etc
[15:07] <ba5e> popey: I suppose it stops everyone breaking their systems at once
[15:07] <thiebaude> i cant exit xorg
[15:07] <thiebaude> cwillu: if i exit the terminal will it save it
[15:08] <cwillu> thiebaude, WriteOut
[15:08] <thiebaude> ok
[15:08] <thiebaude> i do ctrl w and it doesn't work
[15:08] <ba5e> thiebaude: ctrl x
[15:08] <ba5e> oops
[15:08] <ba5e> no ctrl o
[15:08] <cwillu> thiebaude, did you sudo nano, or just nano?
[15:09] <thiebaude> nano
[15:09] <cwillu> thiebaude, look at the bottom:
[15:09] <thiebaude> ok
[15:09] <ba5e> CTRL O then CTRL X
[15:09] <ba5e> damn jaunty is snappy :)
[15:09] <cwillu> thiebaude, two rows of entries, one of them says "WriteOut", and the key next to it is "^O", meaning Ctrl-O :p
[15:09] <mvo> ba5e: re update-manger: please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JauntyJackalope/ReleaseNotes#Change in notifications of available updates
[15:10] <thiebaude> ok its saved
[15:10] <cwillu> Everyone who thinks nano is the super easy terminal editor take note:  "Write Out" is _not_ intuitive :p
[15:10] <thiebaude> i'll restart
[15:10] <B_Lizzard_> OK, I have an issue with a couple of the hotkeys on my IBM Thinkpad R50e
[15:11] <B_Lizzard_> I originally installed 9.04 Beta
[15:11] <BUGabundo> mbeierl: no gui for mp3gain?
[15:11] <ba5e> cheers mvo
[15:11] <Tetsuooo> hey, do you think upgrading without formatting will work well?
[15:12] <B_Lizzard_> Without updating, all hotkeys worked fine, including the nice graphical popups in gnome
[15:12] <Tetsuooo> because last time i updated to 8.10 it messed up my ubuntu and created a lot of strange bugs
[15:12] <B_Lizzard_> Updating a while later, the volume up/down, mute and brightness up/down keys no longer produce key events in Linux
[15:13] <BluesKaj> Tetsuooo, updating to jaunty went very well for me. It's more stable than 8.10 on my setup.
[15:13] <B_Lizzard_> The functionality is there, provided by the BIOS, but no events produced whatsoever
[15:13] <B_Lizzard_> I followed the Hotkeys/Troubleshooting tutorial on the wiki
[15:13] <B_Lizzard_> No events under input-events or acpi_listen
[15:15] <B_Lizzard_> This could be a bug introduced with whatever kernel update was available on the 12th of April over the Beta release.
[15:16] <cwillu> B_Lizzard_, file a bug on http://bugs.launchpad.net
[15:19] <doktoreas> hello everybody
[15:21] <cwillu> BUGabundo, you suppose thiebaude's coming back?
[15:21] <B_Lizzard_> Is there any way I can verify this claim?
[15:21] <Lint02> I cannot shutdown or reboot
[15:21] <cwillu> B_Lizzard_, running the kernel from immediately before the update would be some evidence
[15:22] <Kavindu> hey, u kno wat guys, the problem is FIXED!!!!!!
[15:23] <cwillu> BUGabundo, soundconverter will do normalization via mp3gain
[15:23] <cwillu> gnome app
[15:23] <cwillu> mbeierl, ^^^
[15:23] <cwillu> or maybe that was soundkonverter
[15:24] <cwillu> one or the other :p
[15:24] <doktoreas> I have got a problem with mail-notification..the pop up is not in the standard notification area, but as a window in the middle of the screen
[15:25] <B_Lizzard_> Unfortunately I have cleared my apt cache, is there any place where I can find a timeline of updates?
[15:25] <B_Lizzard_> For download,that is
[15:27] <doktoreas> anyone using mail-notification with jaunty?
[15:28] <ripnode4> i have 3gb of ram what size should my swap be, its a laptop.
[15:30] <cwillu> ripnode4, if you want to use hibernation, it should probably be at least 3gb
[15:31] <cwillu> doesn't _have_ to be, but the system won't be able to hibernate if you've got more ram allocated than you have swap to back it
[15:33] <ripnode4> cwillu: thanky ou
[15:34] <canen_> even though I upgraded my kernel is still at .27, in fact it is the only one on the system
[15:34] <canen_> anyone know why this is?
[15:36] <canen_> no one?
[15:37] <ripnode4> if I install RC will I be able to upgrade to final?
[15:37] <wirechief> ripnode4: I would think so.
[15:38] <canen_> ripnode4: yes
[15:38] <canen_> strange it is telling me
[15:38] <canen_> And the whole google comparison is obviously fallacious. It's like comparing a skyscraper with a crack dealer residing in a room to a store on main st. that sells crack.
[15:38] <canen_> sorry
[15:38] <canen_> stupid clipboard
[15:38]  * wirechief hands canen a cup of coffee
[15:40] <canen_> wirechief: just had one. it really was a clipboard issue. i never actually copied that, just selected, serves me right for using shift+insert
[15:42] <mbeierl> cwillu: sorry back now...
[15:43] <mbeierl> BUGabundo: no... I thought you were looking for a batch utility...
[15:43] <BUGabundo> mbeierl: sure, ill work with cli too lolol
[15:43] <BUGabundo> but this one is missing some options
[15:44] <mbeierl> BUGabundo: I always used it in a shell script that scraped directories looking for mp3s... what's missing?
[15:45] <BUGabundo> mbeierl: yep. that's what im doing
[15:45] <BUGabundo> for FOO done
[15:45] <mbeierl> yep
[15:45] <BUGabundo> but no MAX gain per file, as far as I can see
[15:45] <mbeierl> I've lost the script now...
[15:45] <mbeierl> oh
[15:45] <B_Lizzard_> Where can I find older updates in order to test my claims?
[15:46] <B_Lizzard_> Say, the kernel version used in Ubuntu 9.04 Beta
[15:46] <mbeierl> BUGabundo:  -x - Only find max. amplitude of mp3?
[15:46] <BUGabundo> not find, apply
[15:47] <BUGabundo> soundkonverter looks nice... thanks for the tip cwillu
[15:47] <henux> the Ubuntu 9.04 Alternate i386 cd image seems to be corrupted or something. I have tried to burn it to a CD via wodim multiple times but it always ends up containing buffer I/O errors. Anyone else have had this problem?
[15:47] <BUGabundo> henux: have you checked the MD5 sum?
[15:48] <henux> yes they match
[15:48] <henux> the error is always at the same position
[15:48] <BUGabundo> try another programa?
[15:48] <BUGabundo> or put to USBpen drive?
[15:48] <henux> dmesg reports logical blocks 175580-89
[15:49] <henux> BUGabundo: how do i put it to a usb pendrive?
[15:49] <henux> BUGabundo: at this moment i am not running ubuntu
[15:50] <BUGabundo> ahh
[15:50] <BUGabundo> stupid idea
[15:50] <ienorand> henux: unetbootin for windows
[15:50] <BUGabundo> use Wubi to install?
[15:50] <BUGabundo> or portableubuntu to run usb-creator
[15:50] <BUGabundo> LOLOL
[15:50] <BUGabundo> btw portableubuntu can be upgraded to jaunty and works!
[15:51] <henux> ienorand: not windows either, another linux distro
[15:51] <ienorand> henux: Ah, apologies.
[15:52] <ienorand> henux: And unetbooting don't happen to be available for that one? ""Packages available: Ubuntu Debian openSUSE Gentoo""
[15:52] <BUGabundo> humm stuck then?
[15:53] <henux> yeah this happens to have unetbootin
[15:53] <henux> can you give me link to instructions of how to use it in this case?
[15:53] <xolve> Does dektop effects work on intel 845 graphics chip?
[15:54] <xolve> Does dektop effects work in Jaunty on intel 845 graphics chip?
[15:54] <ienorand> henux: It's pretty much a graphical app afaik, just choose iso or let it auto-download it for you?
[15:54] <henux> ok
[15:55] <henux> i will try that
[15:55] <shadeslayer> ienorand: um,unetbootin talk?? it doesnt work too well
[15:55] <ienorand> shadeslayer: How so, (I haven't used it on ubuntu...)
[15:56] <shadeslayer> ienorand: um well ill just say the inbuilt USB installer on the live disk is way better,i think unetbootin has a problem with its boot loader,didnt work for me :(
[15:58] <JMFTheVCI> shadeslayer: The USB-Creator works for me everytime
[15:58] <ienorand> shadeslayer: Hmm, I've only ever used it on windows... and then it worked fine... imo the inbuilt one is kind of bad as well... you often end up having to do manual steps in gparted...
[15:58] <shadeslayer> me too ;)
[15:59] <shadeslayer> ienorand: ive used it on jaunty and intrepid,it worked both times
[16:00] <ienorand> For me, at many points it refused to continue until I had reformatted in gparted...
[16:00] <shadeslayer> JMFTheVCI: uh,is the hot keys package broken again?
[16:05] <Newbee> hello
[16:05] <shadeslayer> !hi | Newbee
[16:05] <xolve> hi
[16:05] <xolve> Does dektop effects work in Jaunty on intel 845 graphics chip?
[16:05] <Newbee> I have kubuntu jaunty installed, but I cannot activate the desktop effects in the system settings. I am using HD2600mobile with fglrx
[16:05] <BluesKaj> !intel
[16:05] <shadeslayer> xolve: i *think* there is a problem witht that chip
[16:06] <JMFTheVCI> shades: The hot keys are not broken per-se. It just needs a single config line added.
[16:06] <xolve> shadeslayer, still!
[16:06] <xolve> !intel
[16:06] <shadeslayer> JMFTheVCI: which is?
[16:06] <JMFTheVCI> two sec.
[16:06] <shadeslayer> sure
[16:06] <xolve> shadeslayer, it says this different. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JauntyJackalope/ReleaseNotes#Performance regressions on Intel graphics cards
[16:06] <shadeslayer> xolve: lemme check that for you
[16:07] <shadeslayer> yeah thats the link
[16:07] <JMFTheVCI> shadeslayer: echo 'xkeymap.nokeycodeMap = true' > ~/.vmware/config
[16:07] <xolve> shadeslayer, well it says it does *work* i want to ask real users
[16:07] <shadeslayer> xolve: ok,i get yout point
[16:08] <shadeslayer> JMFTheVCI: uh,no such file
[16:08] <xolve> So, anybody here using intel 845 graphics chip?
[16:08] <JMFTheVCI> shadeslayer: see this as well http://communities.vmware.com/message/1091425
[16:09] <JMFTheVCI> is can also go in /etc/vmware/config which makes it global
[16:09] <JMFTheVCI> this works for Player/Workstation/Server
[16:10] <beuh> The RC version of Ubuntu 9.04 is available only in DVD or it exists a CD version ?

[16:11] <beuh> xangua, ty
[16:11] <JMFTheVCI> on my laptop I think I have over 20 shades from full-on to off.
[16:12]  * canen_ guesses that's  a no
[16:12] <gravityreloaded> hello everyone
[16:12] <shadeslayer> JMFTheVCI: ah,well my hardware supports only 6,evin windowsen
[16:12] <shadeslayer> *even in windows
[16:12] <gravityreloaded> I have success story
[16:12] <JMFTheVCI> canen: there were updates today that applied ok for me
[16:12] <gravityreloaded> :p
[16:12] <gravityreloaded> online with janty
[16:13] <gravityreloaded> and mobile connection
[16:13] <canen_> JMFTheVCI: they seem to apply ok but .27 is still the only one in grub
[16:13] <shadeslayer> gravityreloaded: congrats :)
[16:13] <gravityreloaded> not easy
[16:13] <gravityreloaded> for a newbie like me

[16:13] <canen_> and i keep getting some dkms error with fglrx, which i don't have install anymore
[16:13] <gravityreloaded> screenshot
[16:13] <JMFTheVCI> shadeslayer:  I have two bits of Ubuntu kit. Lenovo T61 (about 15 clicks) Samsung NC10 (20 clicks)
[16:13] <gravityreloaded> haven't done compiz yet
[16:14] <BUGabundo> yay another memory leak. now in gnome search tool
[16:14] <BUGabundo> let me nag seb128
[16:15] <canen_> is it ok for me to just delete everything under /var/lib/dkms/fglrx/ or am i just asking for trouble?
[16:15] <shadeslayer> notify-osd + KDE = one bad combination ;)
[16:16] <BUGabundo> shadeslayer: yes
[16:16] <JMFTheVCI> I tried KDE for about 15 minutes and that was enough.
[16:17] <christian_lappy> hi guys
[16:17] <shadeslayer> JMFTheVCI: so did your screen support 20 levels of brightness earlier?
[16:17] <BUGabundo> christian_lappy: hi
[16:18] <JMFTheVCI> Yes. I actually think the levels increased when I upgraded from8.10 to 9.4 on monday.
[16:18] <christian_lappy> BUGabundo: can t upgrade to 9.p04 ..sudo do-release-upgrade -d gives me ..
[16:18] <BUGabundo> why do ppl insist in using SUDO for updatemanager??
[16:18] <gravityreloaded> christian_lappy:  best is install from ISO
[16:18] <christian_lappy> BUGabundo: hash sum mismatch ..aborting
[16:18] <shadeslayer> JMFTheVCI: well i had 6 on 8.10 as well,im updating right now as well,55 updates :O
[16:18] <gravityreloaded> I used the alpha distro
[16:18] <gravityreloaded> but new one nearly out
[16:18] <gravityreloaded> :)
[16:19] <BUGabundo> christian_lappy: humm please pastebin your sources.list
[16:19] <christian_lappy> BUGabundo: i paste the complete error message
[16:19] <BUGabundo> gravityreloaded: weren't you just now on PT?
[16:19] <gravityreloaded> www.futuredesktop.com will answer a lot of your questions
[16:19] <gravityreloaded> yes
[16:19] <JMFTheVCI> shadeslayer: I have everyupdate there is on now. I have cleaned off every bit of dross and all older kernels and rebooted. Sweet!
[16:19] <BUGabundo> christian_lappy: you are new to this , right?
[16:20] <christian_lappy> BUGabundo: nah, did that from 8.04 to 8.10
[16:20] <gravityreloaded> clean install is always best :p
[16:20] <christian_lappy> BUGabundo: using linux for years :-)
[16:20] <BUGabundo> gravityreloaded: please stop the nonence, ok?
[16:20] <BUGabundo> christian_lappy: then you should be able to pastebin your sources.list
[16:20] <BUGabundo> without further help!
[16:20] <shadeslayer> btw any kubuntu guys here?? i wanted to point out a bug,when i switch on my wifi the network manager says wlan0 disconnected
[16:20] <gravityreloaded> BUGabundo: ? did I do something wrong - making useful suggestions
[16:21] <cwillu> shadeslayer, bugs.launchpad.net is a better place to report bugs :p
[16:21] <cwillu> gravityreloaded, , upgrades are completely supported in ubuntu
[16:21] <christian_lappy> BUGabundo: http://pastebin.com/m472064fa
[16:21] <cwillu> suggesting that people wipe their machines and reinstall isn't useful
[16:21] <BUGabundo> gravityreloaded: ordering a user to reinstall is not helping
[16:21] <shadeslayer> cwillu: just wanted to ask if people had the same problem
[16:21] <gravityreloaded> I tell u I'm on jaunty with mobile internet, unlike many here and I tell u it's the easest way
[16:21]  * BUGabundo shares cwillu brain wave
[16:21] <cwillu> shadeslayer, trust me :)
[16:21] <christian_lappy> BUGabundo: i found that a bug was filed against this problem, but it says fixed and it isnt for me
[16:22] <gravityreloaded> u try it see how far u get
[16:22] <BUGabundo> christian_lappy: come on!!! /etc/apt/sources.list
[16:22] <cwillu> shadeslayer, start filing the bug, it'll do a search based on your bug title, and show a list of possible duplicates
[16:22] <christian_lappy> BUGabundo: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/358893
[16:22] <BUGabundo> I don't have much time to help you
[16:22] <cwillu> shadeslayer, more reliable than hoping the right person happens to be around :)
[16:22] <ikonia> gravityreloaded: cut it out please.
[16:22] <flox> canen_: yes, you can
[16:22] <gravityreloaded> I'm not saying I know more than u guys but I'm getting there
[16:22] <flox> canen_: it should clear the error
[16:22] <gravityreloaded> why u insulting me?
[16:22] <canen_> flox: cool, will do
[16:23]  * gravityreloaded is now offended :(
[16:23] <Belboz991> Hey all, having issues getting an nvidia driver to load, whether using restricted drivers manager or envyng.   The module is not listed as available, any ideas?
[16:23] <cwillu> gravityreloaded, my desktop's been upgraded from 4.10.  My laptop's been upgraded from 7.04.  Most of the machines I administer are running 6.06 upgraded to 8.04
[16:23] <ikonia> gravityreloaded: I'm not, I'm asking you to just think about what you suggest to people as THEIR (not your) best option
[16:23] <canen_> flox: stuff in /usr/src/fglrx can go as well?
[16:23] <shadeslayer> Belboz991: did you update the install,theres a bug in the beta ISO
[16:23] <christian_lappy> BUGabundo: http://pastebin.com/m7515ad56
[16:23] <gravityreloaded> ikonia: ye no-one HAS to follow my instructions anyway
[16:24] <gravityreloaded> ikonia: maybe I'm unwanted here
[16:24] <Belboz991> shadeslayer: just did an apt-get dist-upgrade about 10 minutes ago
[16:24] <ikonia> gravityreloaded: cut the self pity please
[16:24] <flox> canen_: normally you should use command "dkms remove ..."
[16:24] <cwillu> gravityreloaded, it's one thing to suggest a reinstall when it's clear the user has nothing to lose, and has gotten their system wedged into a state that may take many hours to sort out.  But it's quite another to suggest is as casually as you have
[16:24] <BUGabundo> christian_lappy: thanks. comment all 3rd party repos (like PPAs) and the partner
[16:24] <gravityreloaded> k
[16:24] <gravityreloaded> bye everyone
[16:24] <ikonia> bye
[16:25] <gravityreloaded> gotta go
[16:25] <canen_> flox: now you tell me :) . just deleted it
[16:25] <JMFTheVCI> gravityreloaded: The ubuntu team do a lot of work to ensure that upgrades work. This gets more focus than clean installs.
[16:25] <shadeslayer> Belboz991: hmm,well when i installed the beta,i had to wait for 10min and after that i would be able to see the driver
[16:25] <Belboz991> basically, when I try to manually load the driver (sudo modprobe nv *autocomplete*) it fails to list the nvidia driver, only nvidia-agp, nvidiafb, and nvram. :/
[16:25] <gravityreloaded> right
[16:25] <flox> canen_: i just read the documentation "dkms remove -m <module> -v <module-version> --all"
[16:25] <Belboz991> and of course, X fails to load
[16:25] <gravityreloaded> _o_
[16:25] <ikonia> gravityreloaded: stop
[16:25] <shadeslayer> Belboz991: wow
[16:25] <BUGabundo> christian_lappy: then try to upgrade again, without sudo
[16:26] <flox> canen_: but if you remove manually, it should be ok too
[16:26] <canen_> flox: didn't know there was a command until just now
[16:27] <koomi> lo
[16:27] <BUGabundo> ikonia: I'll talk to him
[16:27] <ikonia> BUGabundo: don't worry - nothing to talk about
[16:27] <koomi> i just upgraded to jaunty and expected to see those nifty notifications. did i miss something?
[16:27] <Belboz991> shadeslayer: should I at this juncture be attempting to compile a binary driver direct from Nvidia?
[16:27] <aspoor> ok does this version use cloud computing
[16:27] <koomi> looks pretty intrepid'ish here.
[16:27] <cwillu> koomi, have you rebooted yet?
[16:27] <Belboz991> koomi: I've had similar results
[16:27] <koomi> cwillu: :) sure
[16:27] <cwillu> koomi, stock gnome?
[16:27] <xangua> koomi: you need to have notify.osd installed
[16:28] <ikonia> Belboz991: the modules from nvidia are pre-compiled, you don't have to build them
[16:28] <koomi> notify-osd is installed, nofify-send gives me standard intrepid bubbles
[16:28] <ikonia> Belboz991: I wouldn't suggest using the nvidia.com ones unless you have a very good reason
[16:28] <xangua> have you restarted, closed session ¿ koomi ¿?
[16:28] <koomi> xangua: jep.
[16:28] <christian_lappy> BUGabundo: without sudo ? ok...
[16:28] <aspoor> should I try to install this?
[16:28] <koomi> cwillu: pulled in via ubuntu-desktop
[16:28] <canen_> flox: error gone. now just need to deal with the vboxnetflt one
[16:28] <shadeslayer> Belboz991: gnome i guess?? connect to the internet,wait for 15 min,open the restricted hardware installer and report if it searches for the drivers
[16:29] <BUGabundo> ok back to work. ping me if anyone needs me
[16:29] <BUGabundo> and cwillu don't you dare poke just for fun
[16:29] <xangua> koomi: try unnistalling Notification Daemon
[16:29]  * cwillu gets the stick out and points it menacingly at BUGabundo 
[16:29] <xangua> maybe the upgrade didn't remove it
[16:29]  * BUGabundo ignores cwillu
[16:30] <koomi> xangua: was there.
[16:30] <koomi> i brb
[16:30] <flox> canen_: dkms remove -m vboxnetflt -v 2.2.0
[16:31] <flox> canen_: :)
[16:31] <canen_> flox: did that, received some errors
[16:31] <shadeslayer> um can anyone help me with my brightness hotkeys?
[16:31] <canen_> flox: bad conf file
[16:31] <flox> ha... maybe --force
[16:32] <flox> canen_:
[16:32] <canen_> flox: same
[16:33] <flox> canen_: rm is the last choice, maybe
[16:33] <flox> or
[16:33] <corinth> Is anyone else getting weird characters in places such as password fields in programs and some other things in the RC?
[16:33] <flox> canen_: remove vboxnet before, maybe ?
[16:34] <flox> canen_: i mean vboxdrv
[16:34] <ellar> anyone having same phenomene: scrambled / static sound after login if using ubuntu login sound from administration ->sounds an having gnome sound activated under 'gnome login manager'(don't know exactly is german here)! Could someone test that?
[16:34] <canen_> flox: manually specifying the conf file seems to work
[16:34] <canen_> it was looking in the wrong placce
[16:34] <flox> ok
[16:34] <ellar> And when you deactivate gnome login sound it works all perfectly!
[16:34] <DG19075> passwords are good here but no root terminal
[16:35] <shadeslayer> arrgh how do i disable this annoying system beep
[16:36] <DG19075> the launcher doesn't link
[16:36] <flox> shadeslayer: rmmod pcspkr
[16:36] <corinth> I'm getting weird characters in odd places in the RC. Using 64-bit. http://i44.tinypic.com/23h4z78.png
[16:36] <flox> shadeslayer: sudo rmmod pcspkr
[16:37] <shadeslayer> :P doesnt work
[16:37] <DG19075> how to re link the launcher to the app?
[16:37] <canen_> all clean now, except still only .27 listed in grub and why the hell is nvidia stuff installed?
[16:37] <flox> shadeslayer: which error do you have ?
[16:37] <flox> shadeslayer: you typed the command in a Terminal ?
[16:37] <shadeslayer> flox: no error,still get the sound
[16:38] <ondisk> pcspkr in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist!
[16:38] <shadeslayer> flox: obviously
[16:38] <canen_> anyone know why nvidia-common would be installed when i am using ati?
[16:39] <Pici> canen_: Because it only contains things for detecting nvidia cards, its a very small package iirc.
[16:39] <flox> shadeslayer ondisk: but if the "sudo rmmod pcspkr" do nothing, no need to blacklist it
[16:39] <canen_> Pici: ok, i can live with that
[16:39] <shadeslayer> flox: no idea,i still have the pcspkr beeping away
[16:39] <flox> shadeslayer: blacklisting pcspkr is required to disable speaker sound permanently
[16:40] <shadeslayer> flox: so i removed it and.....
[16:40] <flox> shadeslayer: i guess that you do not find "pcspkr" in the list of modules : lsmod |grep pcspkr
[16:40] <ondisk> system beep should really be disabled by default. it totally annoying.
[16:41] <shadeslayer> flox: nothing there
[16:41] <canen_> isn't there suppose to be a grub-update command?
[16:42] <flox> shadeslayer: are you sure it is the "system sound", not something else ? when do you hear it ?
[16:42] <shadeslayer> when pressing backspace in empathy,when there is nothing in the box
[16:43] <flox> shadeslayer: look at the preferences of empathy, maybe ...
[16:43] <ienorand> How do I do a "boot from local harddisk in grub menu.lst"? I boot grub from usb an want to pass it on to local hd boot.
[16:43] <flox> shadeslayer: it happens on the terminal too ? when you press some letters and press "Tab" key ?
[16:43] <corinth> shadeslayer: I've had that problem for the last three releases. There is a workaround somewhere that tells you how to disable the system beep.
[16:44] <shadeslayer> flox: nothing in terminal,silent as hell
[16:44] <corinth> shadeslayer: I get it in empathy and pidgin
[16:44] <shadeslayer> empathy is still giving me a headache
[16:44] <flox> shadeslayer: maybe try the tip given by ondisk
[16:45] <DG19075> root terminal still is out here
[16:45] <flox> shadeslayer:  put a file in /etc/modprobe.d/custom.conf with "blacklist pcspkr" inside
[16:45] <ikonia> DG19075: what ?
[16:45] <flox> shadeslayer: then reboot
[16:45] <ondisk> also, you can try to disable alert sounds in system, preferences, sound
[16:45] <corinth> shadeslayer: http://www.foogazi.com/2008/05/01/how-to-disable-the-system-beep-in-ubuntu/
[16:45] <ellar> please can anyone check which file is set in the 'login window manager' under Administration for successfully logged in?
[16:45]  * shadeslayer is bombarded with info
[16:45] <flox> shadeslayer: maybe it is taken into account on boot only
[16:46] <corinth> Better than not getting any responses. :-P
[16:46] <DG19075> when I click the root terminal in this jaunty install, it doesn't come up. i get the gksu password request fine, tho
[16:47] <DG19075> then nothing
[16:47] <DG19075> all else seems to be fine
[16:48] <DG19075> wonders if anyone else has this problem
[16:51] <Mark_Milliman> If this is a RC then why isn't root terminal working?
[16:51] <Pici> Because its probably a bug.
[16:52]  * canen_ it's update-grup not grub-update
[16:52] <Pici> DG19075: Looks like someone else is having that problem ^ a bug should be logged for it.
[16:52] <xangua> root terminal works for me Mark_Milliman
[16:52] <xangua> sudo, su and gksu
[16:52] <canen_> same thing, seems i need to update it manually
[16:53] <Pici> xangua: I believe they mean the launcher called root terminal.
[16:53] <Mark_Milliman> Yes the launcher
[16:55] <Azalar> Anyone know if the evolution in jaunty supports exchange 2007 yet?
[17:00] <ngranek> the new notifications system keeps showing the notifications on the top-right corner of the screen, even when I move the pannel to the bottom
[17:00] <ngranek> is that a known issue?
[17:00] <Mark_Milliman> I tried gksu gnome-terminal and that does not work either
[17:01] <Mark_Milliman> gksu works for other things like gedit
[17:01] <canen_> damn, quassel is slooow
[17:02] <canen_> ok, i think this grub menu.list not updating is a bug
[17:03] <canen_> if you remove menu.lst and run update-grub it picks up the new kernel but not otherwise
[17:07] <cy6|siMN> Anyone here got any problems accesing harddrives in Ubuntu 9.04? i have installed the beta, and formatted the drive into ext3 with gparted.

[17:19] <BUGabundo>  !paste | cy6|siMN
[17:19] <SwedeMike> uffo: I'm connected right now via WPA2.
[17:19] <cy6|siMN> could we do this private? i didnt understand
[17:20] <BUGabundo> cy6|siMN: I'm a bit busy
[17:20] <cy6|siMN> ok ill try
[17:20] <uffo> SwedeMike: with default installed rc ??
[17:20] <BUGabundo> I can just do high touch stuff
[17:20] <BUGabundo> maybe another member can help you ?
[17:20] <SwedeMike> uffo: well, I've been using it since alpha2 and it's been working all along.
[17:20] <BUGabundo> uffo: on gnome I connect to it every day
[17:20] <eagles0513875> hggdh: can you clarify the command that i pasted above from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile
[17:21] <uffo> SwedeMike: but network connector do not show wpa2 option, does it still should connect?
[17:21] <SwedeMike> uffo: works for me, I just click on my network and it connects. I don't specify anything at all.
[17:22] <uffo> SwedeMike: and you are using wpa2 security
[17:22] <uffo> SwedeMike: Sorry whops, kubuntu
[17:22] <hggdh> eagles0513875, you have to be under the correct directory
[17:22] <cy6|siMN> BUGabundo http://paste.ubuntu.com/152881/
[17:23] <uffo> SwedeMike: kubuntu is my rc
[17:23] <SwedeMike> uffo: hm, sorry, I didnt realise kubuntu was different from regular ubuntu in this fashion. My connection manager says wpa/wpa2, but my AP is set to wpa2 only.
[17:23] <eagles0513875> hggdh: is that what fakeroot does takes you to the directory under root
[17:24] <BUGabundo> cy6|siMN: $ sudo mkdir /mnt/disk1 ; sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/disk1
[17:24] <uffo> SwedeMike: kubuntu cannot still connect to wpa2 and i do not know how to force it
[17:24] <BUGabundo> and report any probs
[17:24] <ellar> hello jaunty testers could anyone comment on Bug #360114? Really annoying and we're in RC!
[17:24] <hggdh> eagles0513875, no, fakeroot -- literally -- fakes a root login
[17:24] <ienorand> If I boot grub from a usb, is it supposed to see the usb as hd0 (going against the naming convention used by ubuntu and making the entries for other os-s in menu.lst invalid [can be edited to correct])?
[17:25] <eagles0513875> hggdh: im starting to notice that
[17:25] <BUGabundo> uffo: please pastebin $ nm-tool
[17:26] <uffo> BUGabundo: i use big computer, laptop is offline from net
[17:26] <BUGabundo> uffo: take a picture or transcript
[17:26] <BUGabundo> any thing... just need to see if it sees wpa2
[17:26] <cy6|siMN> BUGabundo i cant see it on my "Computer" but when i run the command again in terminal i get an /dev/sda1 already mounted ; avvording to mtab, /dev/sda1 is already mounted on /mnt/disk1
[17:27] <BUGabundo> why should it be on "computer" ?
[17:27] <BUGabundo> its on /media as suppoed
[17:27] <hggdh> eagles0513875, you have to be under the source directory
[17:27] <cy6|siMN> What does that mean?
[17:27] <eagles0513875> hggdh: i am
[17:28] <BUGabundo> cy6|siMN: what?
[17:28] <BUGabundo> uffo: so is it ?
[17:28] <ActionParsnip> cy6|siMN: cd /mnt/disk1; ls
[17:29] <uffo> BUGabundo: takes time because without nv gpu driver it is hell slow
[17:29] <BUGabundo> ActionParsnip: I don't see it in his mount
[17:29] <Naynay> Looks like the AMD/ATI driver is broken
[17:29] <BUGabundo> to run just a nm-tool ?
[17:29] <Naynay> I upgraded to RC1 from the beta install CD
[17:29] <BUGabundo> /dev/sdb1 on / type ext3 (rw,relatime,errors=remount-ro) []
[17:29] <BUGabundo> duh its there
[17:29] <ActionParsnip> BUGabundo: mount says its mounted
[17:29] <Naynay> then installed the propritary driver
[17:30] <BUGabundo> I'm too tired for this
[17:30] <BUGabundo> eheh
[17:30] <Naynay> rebooted into CLI mode, with X reporting dead
[17:30] <ActionParsnip> BUGabundo: i got yo bak
[17:30] <cy6|siMN> BUGabundo i understood it now thank you :), Just a last question, is it possible for me to get the disk shown as a partition just like "file system" HD is? or do i have to mount it into the filesystem?
[17:30] <Naynay> I have two ATI 3870 in Crossfire
[17:30] <ActionParsnip> cy6|siMN: label the partition and it will
[17:30] <BUGabundo> ActionParsnip: thanks! handle hime for me....
[17:30] <ActionParsnip> !label  cy6|siMN
[17:30] <ActionParsnip> BUGabundo: np
[17:31] <ctx144k> hello all
[17:31] <cy6|siMN> ActionParsnip ubottu • Sorry, I don't know anything about label cy6
[17:31] <ActionParsnip> !label | cy6|siMN
[17:31] <ActionParsnip> cy6|siMN: use label and its mount point will be intelligent
[17:31] <uffo> BUGabundo: wait maybe i do not need this, you want to know do my wireless supports wpa2 right? if then yes it supports and ubuntu works fine with wpa2
[17:31] <Hystoriker> hi all. i have a problem with the latest kubuntu 9.04 RC. I try to connect to my router via WLAN, the plasmoid shows me the available accesspoints. I press my AP, I get asked for my WPA-PSK but then there is no connection possible, it simply stops
[17:32] <nemo> I'm getting a number of bad key errors
[17:32] <nemo> it could be I'm on a malicious wifi, but seems a little unlikely
[17:32] <BUGabundo> uffo: NO. I want to know if your wifi card is *seeing* a wpa2 network
[17:32]  * nemo switches networks anyway.
[17:33] <uffo> BUGabundo: i think it is still network manager problem because kubuntu beta did not connect too and maybe rc still cannot connect?
[17:33] <ActionParsnip> Hystoriker: have you configured WPA
[17:33] <BUGabundo> uffo: or networkmanager plamoid is still broken
[17:33] <nemo> still getting bad keys
[17:33] <uffo> BUGabundo:  developers has missed wpa2 option, it should be added to final
[17:34] <BUGabundo> ahh
[17:34] <ctx144k> iam using KDE4.2 with ubuntu9.04(RC). iam using a nvidia-grafikcard FX9800GT. i installed the standard nvidia-drivers from distribution, aktivated the special graikeffekts of KDE42. but i have the follow problem there: while looking pictures in fullscreen via gwenviews i have some graficals problems (showing grafik-errors). i have that problems only while looking pictures in fullscreen
[17:34] <BUGabundo> thanks to let me know
[17:34] <Hystoriker> ActionParsnip: what do u mean by that?
[17:34] <BUGabundo> do you have a bug for it?
[17:34] <BUGabundo> I would like to subscribe
[17:34] <ActionParsnip> Hystoriker: are you sure your wifi card can connect to wpa under linux?
[17:35] <ActionParsnip> ctx144k: have you tried a different viewer?
[17:35] <ctx144k> yes, same problem
[17:35] <nemo> GPG error: http://ubuntu.mirror.frontiernet.net jaunty-updates Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 40976EAF437D05B5 Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key <ftpmaster@ubuntu.com> -  for -updates, -security
[17:35] <Hystoriker> ActionParsnip: oh yes, it worked perfectly under 8.04 on the same machine. i should mention that i try my jaunty from a live-CD to find out, wether i sould upgrade or not
[17:35] <nemo> also on medibuntu.org
[17:35] <cy6|siMN> ActionParsnip ok i think i understood it now, but last question, if i were to remove the disk, and put it into another linux machine, i would just need to find out what ubuntu called the Drive, like bugabundu (Wrote his name wrong on purpose not to highlight him) told me how to do? and just write the /mnt/random123 command again?
[17:35] <ctx144k> when iam stopping "Direct Rendering" in KDE42 options i have no problems, but i have no nice "milc-glass effekts" while moving window
[17:35] <nemo> could my local keys be corrupted, and if so, where can I get a trusted source for the official keyring?
[17:35] <BUGabundo> nemo: OIII man in the middle
[17:35] <nemo> BUGabundo: on 2 different networks? really?
[17:36] <ActionParsnip> cy6|siMN: if its labelled then it will automount as the name, if it doesnt you will have to manually mount
[17:36] <cy6|siMN> ok thanks ;)
[17:36] <ActionParsnip> Hystoriker: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo
[17:36] <cy6|siMN> to both ActionParsnip and BUGabundo ;)
[17:36] <ctx144k> when using same grafikprograms under gnome i have no problems
[17:37] <ctx144k> but i have that ONLY in fullscreen - and ONLY in grafikviewers...
[17:37] <hggdh> eagles0513875, is there a ./debian directory where you are?
[17:37] <eagles0513875> no
[17:38] <boo-hoo> anyone using netbook remix candidate? ?
[17:38] <eagles0513875> im in the kernel source folder where i have the source code hggdh
[17:38] <BluesKaj> ok, more raking to do , BBL
[17:38] <Naynay> ATI Catalyst driver is broken. I have RC fresh installed, and two ATI RADEON HD 3870s in crossfire. X dies upon startup
[17:38] <Ciros> psh my hd3200 doesnt like the ati drivers in general in the RC
[17:39] <Naynay> It works until I install the restricted driver, upon reboot - X won't start and complains about the ATI proprietary driver
[17:40] <Naynay> stuck in CLI mode now
[17:40] <nemo> BUGabundo: switching servers from frontiernet to main ubuntu server solved first 2 errors, but I still get one on medibuntu - how odd.
[17:40] <BUGabundo> nemo: you are the second today reporting it
[17:40] <BUGabundo> guess its there bug
[17:40]  * nemo turns off mediubuntu for now
[17:40] <nemo> medibuntu
[17:41] <hggdh> eagles0513875, and is there a ./debian directory there?
[17:41] <eagles0513875> hggdh: no
[17:41] <hggdh> eagles0513875, there you go
[17:41] <eagles0513875> what i miss then
[17:42] <eagles0513875> hggdh: i got the image source should i be using that or the header
[17:43] <BUGabundo>  !medibuntu | nemo
[17:44] <BUGabundo> eagles0513875: and hggdh: can you guys take it somewhere else ?
[17:44] <BUGabundo> thanks
[17:44] <eagles0513875> hggdh: im in offtopic if you wanna come there
[17:44] <nemo> BUGabundo: I know what it is, is just I've never had issues with their signatures before :-p
[17:44] <BUGabundo> nemo: that's what I'm saying! you are the second today
[17:44] <BUGabundo> maybe one of there servers is not up to date
[17:45] <BUGabundo> better ask on #medibuntu
[17:45] <nemo> BUGabundo: well. it isn't just medibuntu
[17:45] <nemo> as noted. happened to official ubuntu mirror too
[17:45] <nemo> until I switched mirrors
[17:45] <ellar> dtchen, my problem from yesterday is this Bug #360114 I now know the reason but thanks for your kernel version
[17:45] <nemo> a bit odd that 2 completely different projects would have this issue
[17:45] <Hystoriker_> ActionParsnip: i have now got rid of the WPA encryption on my router and the connection still doesn't work
[17:47] <Hystoriker_> ActionParsnip: i am working simultaniously on a winxp connected to the same router via wlan and that works finde, so i dont think it is a router problem
[17:49] <ActionParsnip> Hystoriker_: that doesnt mean anything, if the os is having issues accepting new connections it will need rebooting, plus it doesnt hurt
[17:51] <ctx144k> is there a way to change an icon of an filetype? i wanna see for m3u/pls-files other icons then for ogg/mp3-files
[17:53] <ctx144k> and how to set kate for "ALL" filetypes as option, perhaps as "Edit" in Main-Rightclick-Menu (without scrolling down to "Open with...")
[17:55] <Trewas> weird, my jaunty system is pitifully slow extracting rars compared to other (slower) computer still running intrepid, 5MB/s compared to 25MB/s (archive and extraction in the same disk so it is purely IO limited)
[17:55] <ripnode4> what are the main drawbacks to using the 64bit version? Application support?
[17:56] <BUGabundo> ripnode4: I run anything
[17:56] <BUGabundo> even Flash at 64bits
[17:56] <Bejron> Stupud question, isn't Jaunty a developing v ersion hence "supportet" in here ? The channel for dev. versions ?
[17:57] <ripnode4> BUGabundo: WOW!?! FLASH?? REALLY!
[17:57] <ripnode4> lol
[17:57] <BUGabundo> eehe
[17:57] <BUGabundo> I know its bad
[17:57] <BUGabundo> just stating
[17:58] <dtchen> Bejron: this is the channel for jaunty
[17:59] <Bejron> But topic siad "Jaunty is NOT RELASED and NOT SUPPORTED!".. Confuses me.. =)
[17:59] <Bejron> said even
[17:59] <flox> Bejron: well, this is not formal support from a company. It is support from the community of users
[18:00] <AliTarihi> Anyone using Kubuntu 9.04 ?
[18:00] <Bejron> Then I'm grasping the whole concept. Thanks for clearing that up.
[18:00] <flox> Bejron: so you can ask your question, but there's no guarantee you will have the right answer, or an answer at all
[18:00]  * don333 is using it right now
[18:02]  * flox installed it on January 24th... and still running
[18:02] <Bejron> I'm having problems with 9.04 RC. The mouse pointer/input device stops working on certain parts of the screen/windows from time to time. Mouseclick dosn't work, mouseclick works everywhere except menu etc etc in all different kind of variations. Tried the 9.04 RC Live CD and same problem with 2 different mouses and a Wacomboard..
[18:03] <jetienne> q. i got ubuntu8.10 installed and would like to upgrade to 9.04, where should i look ?.
[18:03] <AliTarihi> I'm experiencing plasma freeze when there are too many notification. Anyone can confirm this?
[18:04] <don333> jetienne: either wait one week or download the LiveCD for 9.04RC
[18:04] <jetienne> don333: not possible to upgrade via usual apt-get upgrade ?
[18:04] <Aleksey_S> jetienne: update-manager -d will help
[18:05] <jetienne> Aleksey_S: ok googling that
[18:05] <BUGabundo> jetienne: dist-upgrade is not the recommend way
[18:05] <jetienne> hmmm ok ok
[18:05] <Aleksey_S> BUGabundo: why?
[18:05] <BUGabundo> jetienne: just run $ update-manager -d
[18:05] <jetienne> so i guess i will wait 2-3week as it seems to be dangerous
[18:06] <lirxis> Hi my wireless network card is not working on my Dell Latitude C600 - it is a 3COM 3CN3AC1556 card. I have tried Ndiswrapper but it do not work... Can anyone help me?
[18:07] <Bejron> Anyone have any ideas or can confirm it ? Can't think of anything I'm doing wrong since the problem also exists on the Live CD.. Exept if my hardware where mailfunctioning, 2 mouses and a Wacomboard all at the same time..
[18:07] <jetienne> Aleksey_S: BUGabundo: ok doing it
[18:08] <BUGabundo> jetienne: if you really need that PC, and aren't able to get out of any major undiscovered bug, I would advise to test via liveCD/USB
[18:08] <BUGabundo> jetienne: just so you know, UM does something extra that dist-upgrade doesn't, like policies
[18:08] <flox> Bejron: maybe look at your "dmesg" with command "dmesg|tail"
[18:09] <lirxis> Have anyone installed a 3com MINI PCI wireless card 3CN3AC1556 in jaunty or ubuntu?
[18:09] <jetienne> BUGabundo: what do you mean by "policies" ?
[18:09] <flox> !pastebin | Bejron
[18:09] <jetienne> ok problem solved, i dont have the disk space :)
[18:09] <BUGabundo> eheeheheheeh
[18:09] <BUGabundo> you may need at least 800MiBs just for basic upgrade
[18:10] <BUGabundo> if you have several other apps, it will require much more
[18:10] <tobi> hi
[18:10] <BUGabundo> ubottu is lagging? 30 sec for a factoid?
[18:10] <BUGabundo> tobi hi
[18:11] <tobi> after the update to JJ I have a problem with qt programms like vlc
[18:11] <tobi> http://img3.imagebanana.com/view/54ue312l/vlcscreenshot.png
[18:11] <BUGabundo> tobi: you are the 3rd reporting it
[18:11] <BUGabundo> are you on kubuntu ?
[18:11] <tobi> no,
[18:11] <Bejron> Hmm.. Problem is that I'm all command line and have a hard time using c/p
[18:11] <BUGabundo> so its not K related
[18:12] <BUGabundo> tobi you are going to need to file a bug
[18:12] <BUGabundo> I guess against fontconfig
[18:12] <BUGabundo> let me check... hangon a sec
[18:12] <lirxis> Does ndiswrapper not work in jaunty?
[18:12] <dtchen> lirxis: it works fine
[18:12] <tobi> BUGabundo: plain Ubuntu and the only qt programms I use are vlc and skype
[18:12] <guja> Okay, I have huge problem. I am using Ubuntu 9.04 and I have installed mysql+apache2+php. While installed that, that applet in panel which shows my name and status started to mark all status as black rectangle. After rebooting, gdm didn't start, system was trying to do some checks, but with failure. I got console login, log in there and typed startx to go into Ubuntu. When in X, got this The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAF
[18:12] <guja> IID:GNOME_FastUserSwitchApplet". and choice to remove it or keep in panel. What ever I choose, it isn't anymore in panel. Same thing happened on 64bit and 32bit Jaunty. Any help??
[18:12] <lirxis> dtchen: cant get my card to work :/
[18:14] <Bejron> But what I get from dmesg|tail is "[1437.801282] usb 1-8: reset high speed usb device using ehci_hcd and address 5"
[18:14] <BUGabundo> tobi: ok can't get a reply
[18:14] <BUGabundo> file it for now
[18:14] <BUGabundo> tobi: $ ubuntu-bug font-config
[18:14] <BUGabundo> and add that screenshot
[18:14] <tobi> ok, will do
[18:15] <Bejron> With different sets of numbers in front..
[18:15] <canen_> fglrx is a spawn of the devil
[18:15] <canen_> it steals your soul, hopes and dreams
[18:15] <solomon> before i switched to jaunty, adjusting my master volume also adjusted my headphone volume on my laptop.  now the two are independent, and the volume buttons & applet only adjust the master volume.  any idea how i can work around this?
[18:16] <dtchen> solomon: system> preferences> sound> devices> default mixer tracks
[18:16] <dtchen> solomon: is your machine a dell inspiron, hp, or ibm thinkpad?
[18:17] <solomon> hop
[18:17] <graingert> is firefox 3.5 included in Jaunty?
[18:17] <solomon> er
[18:17] <solomon> dtchen: hp
[18:17] <jetienne> BUGabundo: deleted some files and now downloading at 1.4mbyte/s :)
[18:17] <flox> Bejron: probably a usb device is the problem...
[18:17] <don333>  graingert: no, 3.0
[18:17] <graingert> don333, will it be in the repos?
[18:17] <dtchen> solomon: please run `ubuntu-bug pulseaudio'
[18:18] <maxb> Has anyone else noticed unlocking from "lock screen" now takes a noticable amount of time and provokes a spike in CPU usage?
[18:18] <dtchen> solomon: (it's not a bug in pulseaudio, but that's the easiest way to get the info i need)
[18:18] <don333> since it's still a beta, I guess not
[18:18] <graingert> don333, guess?
[18:18] <flox> Bejron: lsusb -s 1:8
[18:18] <graingert> don333, from my research it is in the repos currently will it be removed by then?
[18:18] <don333> at least not in the official ones I meant
[18:18] <solomon> dtchen: 'send report'?  or do you just want me to give you some specific info in the contents?
[18:19] <dtchen> solomon: send it, please
[18:19] <don333> ahh, my mistake
[18:19] <dtchen> BUGabundo: what was the issue from yesterday?
[18:19] <don333> I can see it on the packages list
[18:19] <Bejron> flox: Hmm.. Could perhaps be my bluetooth dongle..
[18:20] <dtchen> solomon: also, i'll need the bug number it filed
[18:20] <Bejron> Flox: Command gave nothing. I physically removed the bt dongle..
[18:21] <flox> Bejron: try...
[18:21] <don333> graingert: to sum it up, there is a package called firefox-3.5, but it is not installed by default AFAIK
[18:21] <thiebaude> cwillu: my 9.04 still didn't work after i edited my xorg
[18:21] <don333> I use Kubuntu and there was no firefox at all by default
[18:22] <flox> Bejron: if bluetooth is faulty, you may find experimental driver (and HowTo) on the web
[18:23] <Bejron> Flox: Yeah.. Don´t relly use it, it has just been sitting there. Will try a reboot and return.. BRB..
[18:23] <solomon> dtchen: #363013.  goodness, launchpad is kinda cool
[18:25] <solomon> i admin a bugzilla install at a company with like a half a dozen active reporters or less and it's *still* hard to keep people from filing duplicate bugs :)
[18:25] <tobi> BUGabundo: I filled Bug #363012
[18:26] <dtchen> solomon: heh, i just fixed that bug upstream yesterday
[18:27] <dtchen> solomon: bug 41015
[18:29] <solomon> dtchen: nice work :)
[18:29] <dtchen> solomon: i.e., you need to use ac97_quirk=hp_mute_led
[18:30] <dtchen> solomon: i.e., echo options snd-intel8x0 ac97_quirk=hp_mute_led|sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/sound.conf
[18:31] <solomon> dtchen++
[18:31] <solomon> :)
[18:31] <stone1343> hi, i have a question that I think a lot of people do, about updated packages for software that's newer than what makes it in the release
[18:32] <stone1343> i know a lot of time is wasted on this, but I still can't find the info
[18:32] <stone1343> so Jaunty comes out with, for example, Ruby 1.9.0...
[18:33] <stone1343> Ruby 1.9.1 is considered the first "stable" release in the 1.9 series
[18:33] <ugliefrog> Is daily build of 9.04 the same as the official release next week
[18:33] <dtchen> 1.9.0.2, it seems.
[18:33] <dtchen> ugliefrog: no
[18:33] <stone1343> dtchen: yes, fine
[18:33] <ugliefrog> dangit
[18:33] <dtchen> ugliefrog: just keep an iso and rsync it
[18:33] <dtchen> there won't be many changes from now until final.
[18:33] <stone1343> and the doc says ubuntu only upgrades if it's a security issue
[18:33] <canen_> any pointers on gettin rid of this error "dlopen: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions//libglx.so: undefined symbol: miInitVisualsProc"
[18:34] <dtchen> stone1343: or minimal, uninvasive changes
[18:34] <ugliefrog> what do you mean resync
[18:34] <uberwalla> will 9.04 have support for the acer aspire wireless drivers? That was one real thing I didn't like about 8.10 and lower. I couldn't run wireless. even when I installed a new driver
[18:34] <dtchen> ugliefrog: rsync, not resync.
[18:34] <canen_> the culprit is fglrx but i can't seem to get rid of it
[18:34] <ugliefrog> lol
[18:34] <stone1343> i know no more releases until final, the question is, does 1.9.1 get released in backports?
[18:34] <stone1343> is that what backports is for?
[18:34] <dtchen> stone1343: only when it's in karmic, and only if you explicitly request it
[18:35] <dtchen> stone1343: see the wiki page on requesting backports
[18:35] <ugliefrog> dtchen:ok what do u mean by rsync
[18:35] <dtchen> ugliefrog: see the wiki page on rsync
[18:35] <ugliefrog> omg give this old guy a break u kids r killin me
[18:36] <flox> !rsync
[18:36] <Bejron> Flox: Seems like the problem was the Logitech cordless mouse reciver..
[18:36] <flox> ah ... change batteries ?
[18:37] <shadeslayer> i figured out what was causing my brightness to dimm at twice the rate on one key press
[18:37] <Bejron> flox: In the USB connected transmitter ?
[18:39] <Bejron> Flox: Problems seems to have wanished when I disconnected it. Will try and connect it without batteries in the mouse and then later on add the mouse with fresh batteries. Shouldn't be the batteries since they are fairly new but problem solved anyways.
[18:39] <Bejron> Big thanks flox !!
[18:39] <flox> Bejron: you're welcome ;)
[18:40] <exco1> my dialogues need a really long time to show for a few days now ... what could cause that?
[18:40] <dtchen> ugliefrog: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RsyncCdImage is a good starting point
[18:40] <exco1> e.g. "save as", "browse for a file", "add to archive", ...
[18:40] <canen_> shouldn't mesa provide a libglx.so?
[18:41] <ugliefrog> dtchen:thank you very much
[18:43]  * Bejron is going grocery shopping with gf now. Big thanks again to flox!
[18:43] <Creative1412> guys does ATi Fglrx works with the rc?
[18:44] <stone1343> dtchen: ok, so using my ruby example, i wouldn't expect a backport, so no upgrade until karmic (if then)
[18:44] <stone1343> dtchen: but for a package like GRAMPS, maybe
[18:46] <stone1343> btw, i'm not complaining, i love ubuntu, don't mean to sound negative, i appreciate everything you guys do, just want to understand
[18:47] <stone1343> if no package it's easy enough to build myself, part of what i love compared to windows
[18:47] <Creative1412> guys any one !please could build a deb for Aegisub for me
[18:48] <exco1> Creative1412: depends on how old your card is
[18:48] <Creative1412> i've been treing to compile the src for2 weeks but i screwd
[18:48] <Creative1412> exco1: i have Ati 2100
[18:49] <mrwes> Any reports of 'hot' memory on Jaunty? Seems the cover on my laptop is very very hot since upgrading to Jaunty -- other than sensation I can not quantify it
[18:50] <BUGabundo> dtchen: humm the user wet away
[18:50] <Creative1412> mrwes: i have i desktop how do i know?
[18:50] <BUGabundo> time to leave
[18:50] <mbeierl> mrwes: there was someone yesterday or the day before stating either memory or hd of laptop seemed very much hotter with Jaunty than Intrepid
[18:51] <mrwes> mbeierl, well it's definitely hotter
[18:51] <dooglus> I wonder if one of you fine fellows would assist me please
[18:51] <dooglus> I'm running a 9.04 pre-release on an old laptop with little RAM
[18:52] <dooglus> earlier today I went into the 'startup applications' dialog and disabled a few things that I didn't think I would be needing - like the bluetooth manager and suchlike.
[18:52] <dooglus> now when I plug my phone in, the phone's memory card is no longer automounted.  what startup application might be responsible for that?
[18:52] <mbeierl> User was Neff.  Anyone here remember what the conclusion was?  I dropped out sometime after the ext4 tuning discussion
[18:53] <mbeierl> mrwes: laptop or desktop?
[18:53] <mrwes> mbeierl, laptop, Dell D600 -- installing computertemp package now
[18:53] <dooglus> I disabled: bluetooth manager, evolution alarm notifier, gnome login sound, network manager, print queue applet, pulseaudio session manager, remote desktop, user folders update, and visual assistance

[18:54] <mrwes> mbeierl, PentM here
[18:54] <BluesKaj> Creative1412, install xserver-xorg-video-radeon driver and xserver-xorg-video-ati  driver wrapper
[18:54] <mrwes> 2gb of ram
[18:54] <mbeierl> mrwes: what happened to me earlier was my upgrade happened around the same time as my cooling fan finally got too clogged about 1 year ago and I thought the upgrade made it hotter
[18:55] <mbeierl> mrwes: but it turned out to be.... CAT HAIR
[18:55] <mrwes> sure it was :P
[18:55] <mrwes> fans working ok on this end
[18:55] <Creative1412> BluesKaj:  imean fglrx i have 3d acc working with the Opensource but it's working like Geforce 2!
[18:55] <mbeierl> acpi -t
[18:56] <mbeierl> mrwes: acpi -t shows temp with acpi package installed
[18:56] <mrwes> Thermal 0: ok, 43.5 degrees C
[18:57] <mrwes> is that from the computertemp package?
[18:57] <mbeierl> mrwes: acpi ?
[18:57] <BluesKaj> Creative1412, Geforce 2 ?? what do you mean?
[18:57] <mbeierl> mrwes:  Thermal 0: ok, 46.5 degrees C here
[18:57] <Creative1412> BluesKaj: Slow as Hell!
[18:58] <mrwes> hrmm...that plate covering the RAM is really hot though
[18:58] <mbeierl> mrwes: how close is it to your hard drive?
[18:58] <BluesKaj> Creative1412, what's your frame rate with fglrxgears
[18:59] <BluesKaj> at 1/4 scrnsize
[18:59] <Creative1412> BluesKaj: glxgears is not a benchmark!:@ but it's 200~300 fps!
[18:59] <mrwes> mbeierl, hard drive is perpendicular to the RAM module
[19:00] <mbeierl> mrwes: but close, yes?
[19:00] <BluesKaj> glxinfo , then Creative1412
[19:00] <mrwes> yah...hddtemp show 47C
[19:00] <mrwes> shows*
[19:00] <mbeierl> Mine: /dev/sda: FUJITSU MHW2080BJ FFS G2: 43°C
[19:01] <mbeierl> mrwes: considering my cpu temp is higher than yours, my hd is cooler than yours
[19:01] <mrwes> mbeierl, I was just watching some flash vid too -- maybe 4 or 5 minutes ago
[19:01] <Creative1412> BluesKaj: http://fpaste.org/paste/9404
[19:01] <Creative1412> BluesKaj: take a look
[19:03] <flox> here, CM = 45 and DD = 35
[19:03] <BluesKaj> yeah. I see that old string ..how old is your computer ?
[19:03] <guja> When I reboot my Ubuntu 9.04 32bit I get this suddenly. Duuno why, please help me. GDM doesn't work! http://nopaste.ns-linux.org/?ZWNiOD

[19:05] <mrwes> ahh
[19:05] <mrwes> k
[19:06] <canen_> yay! victory, one more issue squashed
[19:07] <canen_> anyone having problems with purging fglrx, you need to reinstall xserver-xorg-core as well if you want glx to work
[19:08] <BluesKaj> Creative1412, is this your present driver ?  http://en.kioskea.net/telecharger/telecharger-852-drivers-ati-radeon-2100
[19:08] <canen_> the speed improvements in X are more than noticible
[19:08] <Creative1412> canen_: !!!
[19:09] <canen_> Creative1412: O_o
[19:09] <Creative1412> BluesKaj: it's built in in 740gm mother board!
[19:09] <Creative1412> canen_: actully iam amazed!
[19:10] <canen_> anyone have permission to edit the wiki?
[19:10] <canen_> need to add the info to this page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/FglrxInteferesWithRadeonDriver
[19:10] <BluesKaj> yeah, Creative1412 , but apparently the above driver is the latest
[19:10] <mbeierl> mrwes: nope, sorry it's not what I thought he was saying...  All I can tell you right now is you're the second person in two days that I have heard mention hot memory (possibly disk)
[19:10] <mbeierl> mrwes: do you have a prior install available still, or another os?
[19:11] <Creative1412> BluesKaj: the fglrx(closed source) used to work right with 8.10
[19:11] <canen_> oh, it has openid. i'll just do it then, never mind
[19:11] <luca> hi everyone
[19:11] <mrwes> mbeierl, I sure don't
[19:11] <canen_> luca: hi
[19:12] <mrwes> mbeierl, thanks for checking your logs though
[19:12] <luca> my gnome program menubars have all disappeared (user, not systemic problem)
[19:12] <luca> hi canen_ :)
[19:12] <mrwes> mbeierl, temperatures seem pretty static, just hotter
[19:12] <luca> someone's got any idea on how to fix it? I do not have any idea about how this's come to pass
[19:13] <mbeierl> mrwes: yep.  that's just the way...  There is one thing that was tried yesterday and I don't know what the outcome was, and that is to reduce the dirty commit time and some other hd access parameters to reduce the disk io
[19:13] <shadeslayer> hi,i dont know what happened but i cant use sudo any more,it says im not in sudoers list
[19:13] <mrwes> mbeierl, running some flash vid now
[19:13]  * canen_ wonders why launchpad is taking so long to log me in
[19:13] <mrwes> up to 56C
[19:14] <shadeslayer> http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo cant help me too
[19:14] <mbeierl> mrwes: hdtemp or cpu temp?
[19:14] <mrwes> cpu
[19:14] <frybye> canen_: perhaps just after a new rc it is pretty busy...?
[19:14] <mrwes> hddtemp is static at 47C
[19:14] <canen_> yeah
[19:14] <Creative1412> so go root and add your self to the grobe root
[19:14] <shadeslayer> it says no group admin
[19:14] <Halow> luca: See if System>Preferences>Appearance - Interface tab helps out your problems. If they're unchecked I think that might cause what you explained.
[19:15] <guntbert> mrwes: how do you measure temperatures?
[19:15] <mrwes> mbeierl, dell D600 tends to run hot anyway
[19:15] <mbeierl> mrwes: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=839998
[19:15] <shadeslayer> i recently created a account with username admin,if that helps
[19:15] <mrwes> guntbert, install hddtemp and computertemp
[19:15] <luca> Halow: everything checked
[19:15] <guntbert> mrwes: thx
[19:16] <Halow> luca: Huh. I don't know. Sorry. =(
[19:16] <luca> Halow: np :)
[19:16] <shadeslayer> /query ubottu
[19:16] <shadeslayer> :|
[19:17] <luca> shadeslayer: can you use the command su?
[19:17] <shadeslayer> luca: no
[19:18] <shadeslayer> luca: su: Authentication failure
[19:18] <mrwes> mbeierl, reading that thread now
[19:18] <Kissaki> My ubuntu did not get to the login screen after using hibernate with nvidia drivers. After an upgrade (had the new ubuntu in package srces) I am able to log in only with failsafe gnome, it will load the desktop but fail to load an implement it completely.

[19:18] <Kissaki> *hibernate session/data?
[19:19] <mrwes> mbeierl, what if any, is the downside of decreasing the disk activity on ext3?
[19:19] <mbeierl> mrwes: I don't think it'll help much though, you probably had ext3 before and I can't see that ext4 would create more activity.  It hasn't for me
[19:19] <mrwes> mbeierl, yah...nod
[19:19] <dgt84> Ubuntu Jaunty seems to have changed the install location for python packages and many can now not find their data since it's in /usr/local... wtf? Anybody know how this is supposed to work since sys.prefix is still set to /usr?!?!?
[19:19] <mbeierl> mrwes: in case of a hard lockup (or sudden power failure like pulling the battery) you could lose some data
[19:19] <luca> shadeslayer: no idea sorry :(
[19:19] <shadeslayer> np
[19:19] <mrwes> mbeierl, I didn't convert to ext4
[19:20] <dtchen> dgt84: see https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2009-February/027439.html
[19:20] <shadeslayer> any way i can fool ubuntu to think its a fresh install and that it need to set up a new user?
[19:20] <mbeierl> mrwes: there have been reports of ext4 very rarely zeroing out some data on hard crashes, but I /think/ they might be fixed now
[19:21] <mrwes> mbeierl, fan speed seems to adjust accordingly though
[19:22] <dgt84> dtchen, so is it safe to pass that option on all architectures?
[19:22] <mbeierl> mrwes: sounds like it could be ok then.  But you are noticing a particular hot spot right around the memory plate...
[19:22] <mrwes> mbeierl, most definitely!
[19:22] <mrwes> smokin'
[19:22] <mrwes> heh
[19:22] <dtchen> dgt84: yes
[19:23] <flox> shadeslayer: boot to the "recovery" and use command "adduser"
[19:23] <mbeierl> mrwes: have you tried frying eggs on it?
[19:23] <shadeslayer> flox: it says that it could not find the group 'admin'
[19:23] <mrwes> mbeierl, well it's 'my' you know what I'm worried about!
[19:23] <dotblank> Will 9.04 have the new pulse audio?
[19:23] <flox> shadeslayer: et deluser aussi, si tu veux
[19:23] <mrwes> heh
[19:23] <dgt84> dtchen, sorry I meant operating systems / distros not arch
[19:23] <shadeslayer> ?
[19:23] <picklesworth> Odd... I ran out of space on /. Ran apt-get clean and it seems to have freed 2 GB (!)... but /tmp (which is a tmpfs) still claims to be out of space
[19:23] <picklesworth> anyone bumped into that?
[19:23] <mrwes> mbeierl, seems flash is good for a cpu increase of about 10C
[19:24] <flox> shadeslayer: (sorry for the french) and command deluser may be useful too
[19:24] <mrwes> or more
[19:24] <mbeierl> mrwes: um... this is a family-friendly channel :)  but of course.  then again, I always work with laptop on a pillow on my lap....
[19:24] <shadeslayer> flox: so i use deluser shadeslayer  and then ??
[19:24] <solorvox> hey all, should the "hardware drivers" be blank?  I'm trying to install a nvidia binary driver, has that process changed?
[19:24] <mbeierl> mrwes: cpu usage running higher?  nvidia or 3d acceleration not installed/working?
[19:24] <mrwes> mbeierl, well in the winter it's a non-issue
[19:24] <flox> shadeslayer: from the "root" shell is better
[19:25] <shadeslayer> solorvox: its a bug,1) have you updated? 2) wait  for 15 min and search again
[19:25] <dtchen> dgt84: only on distros that use that python-support
[19:25] <flox> shadeslayer: you have commands "addgroup" and "adduser"
[19:25] <mrwes> mbeierl, CPU is running slightly higher, but I have conky running too
[19:25] <mrwes> no compiz though
[19:25] <shadeslayer> flox: and i use adduser shadeslayer admin right?
[19:26] <solorvox> shadeslayer, hadn't updated, doing that now.  (fresh install of rc disc)
[19:26] <mbeierl> mrwes: intel graphics?
[19:26] <mbeierl> mrwes: i910 or something like that?
[19:26] <mrwes> ATI
[19:26] <shadeslayer> solorvox: definitely the bug,update and then try again :)
[19:26] <mbeierl> mrwes: sorry, can't help you.
[19:26] <canen_> just updated the wiki with the xserver-xorg-core info if anybody wants to review. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/FglrxInteferesWithRadeonDriver
[19:26] <mbeierl> mrwes: hee hee.  I haven't actually used ati
[19:26]  * canen_ goes to lunch
[19:26] <mrwes> mbeierl, 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon RV250 [Mobility FireGL 9000] (rev 01)
[19:27] <shadeslayer> flox: ill try those commands then
[19:27] <mbeierl> mrwes: what driver are you using for X?  the proprietary one?
[19:27] <mrwes> yah
[19:27] <mrwes> er...wait -- whatever runs OTB
[19:28] <mbeierl> that would not be the proprietary one
[19:28] <mrwes> yah thought so
[19:28] <mbeierl> try going under System ->Admin ->Hardware Drivers and see if the proprietary one can be activated
[19:29] <mbeierl> mrwes: it might just be that the flash video rendering is simply taking up a lot more cpu and then running hotter
[19:29] <solorvox> well will say this, I'm very impressed with 9.04 so far.  My RAID0 SSD worked out of the box (had to manually hack driver before), wireless and even external monitor (sorta 1280x1024 when it's 2560x1600)
[19:29] <dgt84> dtchen, many thanks, I'm checking this out and testing my app now
[19:29] <mrwes> mbeierl, nah...nothing available there
[19:29] <mbeierl> ok
[19:30] <mrwes> mbeierl, wasn't one under 8.04 either
[19:30] <mrwes> mbeierl, although I've noticed Jaunty doesn't hit the swap at ALL
[19:30] <mbeierl> mrwes: ah.  might be that your card is not supported anymore by ati or something like that
[19:30] <mrwes> it's old
[19:30] <mrwes> pppffft
[19:32] <mrwes> mbeierl, thanks for the efforts :)
[19:33] <mbeierl> mrwes: sorry I can't help more...
[19:33] <mrwes> other than the temp issue, I'm very happy with Jaunty
[19:33] <mrwes> very snappy
[19:33] <mbeierl> I have to say, I've been running it for just over a month now and I'm very pleased
[19:33] <mbeierl> except for evolution exchange integration which suffers from a calendar library bug right now :)
[19:33] <mrwes> mbeierl, I see VLC now has a separate video window
[19:34] <mrwes> I could NEVER drop and drag on the calendar...sigh
[19:34] <dotblank> I hate waiting for people to update their repos for newer releases
[19:34] <mbeierl> not a heavy video user... never used vlc...
[19:34] <mrwes> hated that
[19:34] <solorvox> hum, install did remove my WindowsXP boot option.  Strange because the installer found it and said it was there during grub-install
[19:34] <solorvox> partition is still ok, seems anyway
[19:34] <zhivota> made it finally
[19:34] <mbeierl> solorvox: not there under "other os"?
[19:36] <solorvox> As I remember, and just verified in menu.lst, only two kernels and memtest are in my grub options
[19:36] <solorvox> I should have an entry for windows
[19:36] <solorvox> not a huge deal, I can just edit/copy the comments for the windows 95/98 one
[19:37] <shadeslayer> flox: thanks it worked :)
[19:37] <solorvox> but it's odd since the installer said it saw it
[19:41] <ethana2> E: The package cache file is corrupted
[19:41] <ethana2> E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
[19:42] <ethana2> the CLI never gives me any errors, but update-manager says this every single time I run updates
[19:42] <ethana2> ..but then it never gives me any other problems
[19:43] <ienorand> solorvox: And it made no backup file? menu.lst~ ?
[19:44] <solorvox> ienorand, I did a clean install, reformatted with ext4
[19:44] <ienorand> solorvox: Ah ok...
[19:45] <solorvox> but the installer asked about grub, and said it saw windows xp
[19:45]  * picklesworth is jealous of ext4 users... can't bring self to clean install
[19:45] <ienorand> http://www.mibbit.com/pb/r22wuK <- this is the standard entry for win afaik
[19:46] <ethana2> picklesworth: do a FS upgrade then
[19:46] <ethana2> picklesworth: ext* can upgrade in place
[19:46] <picklesworth> ethana2: is there a wiki page for that one? Lots of conflicting info on what I must do to grub ;)
[19:46] <solorvox> upgrades won't get extents, which is like the best feature of ext4
[19:46] <ethana2> hmmm
[19:46] <ethana2> solorvox: really?
[19:47] <ethana2> hmmmm
[19:47] <ethana2> I'm just going to wait to switch to ext4 'till 9.10
[19:47] <solorvox> extents are extra space for each file, so in the future it doesn't get fraged
[19:47] <ethana2> that way I don't have to worry about anything
[19:47] <solorvox> you can upgrade a ext3->4, but the file system won't be the same if you clean install a ext4
[19:47] <ethana2> I'm going x64 with 9.04 though :)
[19:48] <picklesworth> I only intend to ext4ize my root partition. Home shouldn't be too much of a problem how it is
[19:48] <solorvox> wikipedia has a good page on it. :)
[19:48] <solorvox> reboot
[19:51] <mvo> ethana2: that is most likely a packagekit problem, do you have that installed?
[19:52] <ethana2> update-manager uses packagekit?
[19:52] <ethana2> mvo: should I install it?
[19:52] <mvo> ethana2: no, but packagekit is hooking into the update process and interfereing :)
[19:52] <ethana2> I didn't install it myself..
[19:52] <mvo> ethana2: could you please check with "dpkg -l packagekit" if its not installed already?

[19:55] <ethana2> dael99: http://code.google.com/p/gnome2-globalmenu/
[19:55] <ethana2> dael99: that won't put them back where they were for you probably, but it might put them where they belong
[19:55] <dael99> ethana2 : you mean this causing the trouble?
[19:55] <ethana2> dael99: no, I'm suggesting if you can't figure any other fix, installing that may be a good workaround
[19:56] <ethana2> I use it because it's the best way to do menu bars
[19:56] <ethana2> ..it won't work for firefox, openoffice, and kde apps, but you didn't lose those menu bars, did you?
[19:56] <ethana2> or are you talking about title bars?
[19:57] <dael99> XD i have to admit that i was so stupid... now i've uninstalled that... and things are working fine now. tnaks.
[19:57] <ethana2> what?
[19:57] <ethana2> *headdesk*
[19:57] <dael99> never mind.
[19:57] <ethana2> haha
[19:57] <ethana2> interesting.
[19:57] <dael99> what?
[19:57] <ethana2> dael99: you had installed that previously?
[19:57] <dael99> yes.
[19:58] <ethana2> dael99: and what was your problem exactly?
[19:58] <dael99> and the bug is me. XD
[19:58] <ethana2> dael99: did you upgrade from 8.10?
[19:58] <dael99> never mind. thanks. an conf error, nothing else.
[19:58] <ethana2> dael99: if so, you need to switch the version you're getting from ap--
[19:58] <ethana2> yes.
[19:59] <ethana2> mvo: thoughts?
[19:59] <dael99> working fine. thanks.
[19:59] <dael99> sorry.
[19:59] <mvo> ethana2: I did a packagekit upload that is hanging in the queue that should fix it
[20:00] <mvo> ethana2: I can upload to my PPA
[20:00] <ethana2> no that's fine
[20:00] <ethana2> thanks a ton
[20:01] <mvo> ethana2: it should be available soon in https://edge.launchpad.net/~mvo/+archive/ppa - if that version fixes the problem (or not) just ping me on irc and let me know
[20:01] <ethana2> mvo: you are requesting that I test it for you?
[20:01] <henux> I have freshly installed 9.04. I plugged in an external hard drive which is LUKS encrypted and this popped up a dialog to request the passphrase. I entered it and now the hard drive is mounted and open in nautilus. However, it seems only to be read-only? Why and how to fix that? I need to have full access to it.
[20:02] <tormod> sa
[20:02] <mlissner> just updated to jaunty - amarok 2 is REALLY bad, but otherwise no problems.
[20:02] <ethana2> mlissner: kubuntu jaunty?
[20:02] <eagles0513875> mlissner: try wiht a clean install
[20:03] <mlissner> ethana2, ubuntu actually.
[20:03] <eagles0513875> upgrade form intrepid to jaunty leaves you wiht stuff that isnt even in jaunty
[20:03] <mvo> ethana2: that would be nice
[20:03] <eagles0513875> at least with kde you end up wiht the old defunct network manager
[20:03] <eagles0513875> knetworkmanager
[20:03] <mvo> ethana2: its fine if you don't want to of course
[20:03] <eagles0513875> anyways im out for the night guys
[20:03] <eagles0513875> mlissner: i would try with a clean install tbh
[20:03] <ethana2> mvo: Yeah, I probably don't...
[20:04] <mlissner> eagle0513875: It runs fine, it's just...ummm...how to put this delicately...bad UI.
[20:04] <canen_> eagles0513875: what's knetworkmanager's replacement?
[20:04] <eagles0513875> !info netowork-manager
[20:05] <eagles0513875> !info network-manager
[20:05] <eagles0513875> canen_: thats the replacement
[20:05] <eagles0513875> million times better at least i can connect to my home wifi unlike with knetwork
[20:05] <canen_> ah
[20:05] <eagles0513875> if you upgrade from intrepid to jaunt it doesnt remove the old network manager
[20:05] <eagles0513875> canen_: you can also scan for wifi networks as well with it
[20:05] <eagles0513875> anyways im out
[20:05] <canen_> i am on a desktop
[20:05] <canen_> so no wifi for me
[20:06] <mlissner> I do have one question: has anybody with an encrypted disk changed to ext4?
[20:06] <ienorand> iwlist scan always work...
[20:06] <eagles0513875> i have jaunty on a laptop and man is it heavenly lol
[20:06] <eagles0513875> anyways i gtg
[20:15] <akahigeRGO> I've been trying to figure out what causes different apps to trigger the Notify-OSD popup... that happens sometimes in Pidgin... is that because my nick is mentioned, or is there a specific command (not IM) that triggers it?
[20:16] <Halow> akahigeRGO: You can customize the pidgin notifications. It's in the plugins. Let me remember what exactly it's called.
[20:18] <Halow> akahigeRGO: "Libnotify Popups",
[20:19] <akahigeRGO> Halow: thanks! is libnotify what Notify-OSD is using, then?
[20:21] <crdlb> akahigeRGO: yes, libnotify is a convenience library for making dbus calls on org.freedesktop.Notifications
[20:21] <crdlb> notify-osd listens on that service name, and is configured to autospawn if that service is requested when it's not running
[20:22] <akahigeRGO> crdlb: cool. thanks for the info. I'm really liking Notify-OSD ... just wish I could customize some of the behavior
[20:22] <crdlb> how are you at C? :/
[20:23] <akahigeRGO> crdlb: not at all. and Mr Shuttleworth has said that they went to great lengths to NOT have Notify-OSD be customizable, so I'll just have to live with it...  :)
[20:24] <crdlb> I have a little notify script that relies on notifications that don't go away until you click on them
[20:24] <crdlb> so I've uninstalled notify-osd for now
[20:25] <akahigeRGO> the thing I wish it would do is to log the messages (even in a small queue) so I can look back and see something that I missed (or didn't catch all of before it disappeared)
[20:25] <crdlb> that would solve my issue, I guess
[20:26] <crdlb> would be trivial to do too
[20:26] <akahigeRGO> would it?
[20:26] <akahigeRGO> (I don't code any more, and never in C)
[20:27] <crdlb> the notification is just a summary line, a small paragraph of body text with limited markup, and an icon name
[20:27] <crdlb> plus a few things that notify-osd doesn't support, like actions :)
[20:28] <crdlb> the only hard part might be determining which ones to log ... I don't think you'd want volume changes in there
[20:28] <akahigeRGO> well, maybe as Jaunty gets adopted and people start using and discussing N-OSD, the PTB will change their minds
[20:29] <crdlb> but there is an urgency enum (LOW, NORMAL, CRTIICAL), so I guess you could just log the last one or two
[20:30] <akahigeRGO> that's a good point. since you brought up volume controls, is there any way via the protocol to show what the new volume is as you change it? there's a sliding scale, which I assume indicates setting, but what it really needs is the percentage you get when hovering the tray icon
[20:31] <crdlb> I don't know exactly how that works, but it certainly would be possible to add
[20:32] <akahigeRGO> or possibly -- additionally -- log or exclude certain apps. like I get a notice when I create PDF's (probably from CUPS), but I wouldn't need that to be logged since it's based on an action that I made. pidgin notifications, or OS alerts, though... those are important...
[20:32] <crdlb> the notification spec has a provision for vendor extensions; maybe they're using that to convey volume changes
[20:42] <LiMaO> why is flashplugin blocked as an update for a long time now?
[20:46] <ienorand> LiMaO: try upgrading it using synaptic
[20:46] <crdlb> LiMaO: and if you do (or do a command-line dist-upgrade), make sure you pay attention to what it wants to remove
[20:47]  * dazman is amazed at how far forwards Jaunty is compared to even Intrepid in terms of "the whole desktop experience"
[20:48]  * crdlb wonders if he's using the wrong jaunty
[20:49]  * mbeierl still likes the new splash and gdm greeter
[20:50] <dazman> I'm talking more "polished" experience.. even, dare I say it, the fonts appear to be fixed. :o ;)
[20:50] <dazman> It's the first time in erm, 12 years, I've seen fonts fixed on a Debian-based distribution ;)
[20:50] <crdlb> mbeierl: what splash? :)
[20:50] <mbeierl> the startup
[20:50] <dazman> (out of the box)
[20:50] <mbeierl> fbsplash
[20:51] <crdlb> oh, the boot splash
[20:55] <mbeierl> yep, that one.  the jaunty "tiny" one
[20:56] <mbeierl> Going back to intrepid now, I think intrepid suddenly looks "chunky"
[21:05] <l2udd> I just upgraded my laptop from Ubuntu 8.10 to 9.04 RC and now my audio doesn't work.  Worked fine in 8.10
[21:06] <flox> l2udd: it's time to roll back to intrepid ;)
[21:07] <Assid> yello
[21:07] <Assid> the final version been chosen yet?
[21:08] <l2udd> flox:  That
[21:08] <l2udd> flox: That's what I get for trying to upgrade early!!
[21:08] <canen_> what the hell? kde just randomly logged me out
[21:09] <flox> l2udd: look here http://www.ubuntugeek.com/simple-guide-to-sound-solutions-for-hardyintrepid-and-jaunty-jackalope-users.html
[21:09] <flox> l2udd: it may help ... or not
[21:09] <crdlb> canen_: sounds like X crashed? check /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old (look at the bottom of it)
[21:10] <canen_> it automatically logged me in after
[21:11] <canen_> Saw signal 11.  Server aborting.
[21:11] <canen_> that's what i  see
[21:11] <crdlb> so it did crash
[21:11] <canen_> yeah
[21:11] <canen_> then did a restore it seems
[21:11] <crdlb> there should be a backtrace above that with which you can file a bug
[21:12] <canen_> seems to be the radeon drivers and aiglx
[21:12] <canen_> i've had enough bug hunting for one day, can't start on another 1 now
[21:18] <Jordan_U> Does fglrx in 9.04 support Radeon Mobility X1600 ?
[21:27] <crdlb> Jordan_U: negative
[21:27] <Jordan_U> :(
[21:27] <holyscott> any major bugs found in the RC?
[21:28] <Jordan_U> And the ati driver in 9.04 still doesn't support redirected direct rendering?
[21:28] <luca_> hi everyone
[21:29] <bigbrovar> it seems the finger print integration that is part of gnome 2.2.6 release http://library.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/2.26/#rnusers.aboutme was not implemented in jaunty .. sad because i cant get my finger print reader to work on my dell xps m1330 which came preinstalled with ubuntu
[21:29] <bigbrovar> thinkfinger as been broken since intrepid .. and its doesnt work on jaunty .. even though it worked perfectly on hardy heron
[21:29] <bigbrovar> :-(
[21:30] <luca_> I have reported bug 351220 weeks ago, which is about the kernel, nobody answered, and I am hit by this bug on a daily basis at least :(
[21:31] <guntbert> bigbrovar: on my Lenovo T60 thinkfinger runs fine (intrepid)
[21:31] <luca_> it is pretty serious - I know it is kinda whining, but before I format my system, who should I speak to? I have already tried to purge - reinstall the kernel
[21:32] <bigbrovar> guntbert: thing finger from the repos or one from ppa one from the repo is broken and u have to hit enter after swaping your finger
[21:32] <bigbrovar> among other bugs
[21:34] <Jordan_U> luca_: I would try a vanilla kernel and if you get the problem still file a bug upstream
[21:35] <luca_> Jordan_U: I have also non-free nvidia driver here, plus haven't installed a vanilla kernel in a long time :( Will do if there is no other way though
[21:35] <guntbert> bigbrovar: ok, mine is from ppa, but no need to hit enter any more, works even with screen saver
[21:35] <dooglus> can someone tell me how to install tor in 9.04 please?
[21:35] <dooglus> tor as in 'the onion router'
[21:38] <hggdh> dooglus, what happens you you try to install it?
[21:38] <Jordan_U> luca_: There is a ppa for vanilla kernels, http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ . If you really want it fixed I would uninstall the nvidia drivers, try the mainline kernel, if it still happens file a bug report ( from it happening with mainline and not "tainted" )
[21:39] <dooglus> hggdh: I get as far as "sudo apt-get install " and then don't know what to type next
[21:39] <bigbrovar> guntbert: same with mine.. but the ppa has not been updated to jaunty so using it cause bad things to happen .. afaik there is no way to get finger print authentication to work on jaunty .. which is a huge regression since this worked pefectly on hardy .. can be very frustrating since this things are suppose to happen on windows
[21:39] <Jordan_U> luca_: Note though that I think the packaged nvidia driver uses DKMS so I think it will continue to work with the new kernel ( but again, you should file a bug report untainted )
[21:40] <hggdh> dooglus, sudo apt-get install tor tor-geopip
[21:40] <hggdh> dooglus, or use synaptic
[21:40] <dooglus> hggdh: "Package tor is not available, but is referred to by another package."
[21:41] <guntbert> bigbrovar: thx for the heads up - guess I'll be waiting a little before upgrading
[21:41] <dooglus> hggdh: I'll try an apt-get update I guess
[21:41] <Kamitsukai1> can anyone help with my adobe flash problem? it's installed but I get told it isn't by youtube + others...
[21:41] <hggdh> dooglus, sigh... I guess it was not fixed...
[21:41] <user_> Kamitsukai1: enabled javascript in the broswer?
[21:42] <hggdh> dooglus, apt-get update is always good, but I do not remember seeing any update on tor for quite a while
[21:42] <tlacuache> http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/jaunty/beta says "Included in Jaunty is a simple menu which can be used to set preferences for notification icons, such as where they pop up on the taskbar."
[21:42] <tlacuache> where is this menu?
[21:42] <tlacuache> i can't seem to find it anywhere
[21:42] <Kamitsukai1> @user_: yep just double checked =] and I've already reinstalled it via synaptic...
[21:43] <bigbrovar> guntbert:np .. i actually came here to see if i could get any heads up
[21:43] <dooglus> !info tor jaunty
[21:44] <dooglus> I wonder - did I not enable universe?
[21:45] <hggdh> well, I cannot find the binary packages anywhere
[21:45] <bigbrovar> guntbert: what is really sad is that finger print support is part of gnome 2.2.6 wonder why it was stripped out of jaunty .. it worked perfectly on fedora 11 beta :/
[21:46] <guntbert> bigbrovar: well I don't know :-(
[21:47] <bigbrovar> guntbert> we are not alone http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1100077 nobody seem to know not even the ubuntu desktop team .. was at their irc and even there nobody knows
[21:49] <picklesworth> Is grub refusing to boot the latest kernel for anyone else? I get error 13: unrecognized or unsupported executable format. It booted 2.6.28-10, though
[21:49] <bigbrovar> guntbert: its just sad when something that worked perfectly well on hardy heron got broken for close to 2 releases now and there has'nt been any improvement ..
[21:49] <picklesworth> possibly related to me turning this into an ext4 partition, but it's hard to say ;)
[21:50] <guntbert> bigbrovar: have you seen the references to fprint? (silly name:)
[21:50] <dooglus> hggdh: do you have jaunty and tor install?
[21:50] <dooglus> hggdh: installed*  it seems to not be present in the repo?
[21:51] <dooglus> hggdh: "$ apt-cache policy tor" tells me "candidate: none"
[21:51] <hggdh> dooglus, yes, I use jaunty, and I have tor installed -- but I fixed the build myself
[21:51] <ActionParsnip> !info tor
[21:51] <hggdh> there was a bug on it... let me find it
[21:52] <coppro> My upgrade to RC was done while not connected to the internet so flashplugin-nonfree didn't grab the newest stuff; how do I get it to install again? I've tried reconfiguring, reinstalling, even purge and install.
[21:52] <bigbrovar> guntbert: u mean this ? http://reactivated.net/fprint/wiki/Fprintd am going thru it .. might have to do some compiling to make this work .. compiling stuff to make hardware that worked on older version of an OS is so not 2009
[21:53] <hggdh> dooglus, bug 303949
[21:54] <hggdh> dooglus, for whatever reason the package was not built -- which warrants a bug by itself. but you can build it yourself
[21:55] <guntbert> bigbrovar: seems to be what I found (see also http://www.thinkpad-forum.de/thinkpad-software/linux-und-osx/62328-fprint-ersetzt-thinkfinger-in-jaunty-jackalope/)
[21:56] <bigbrovar> guntbert: thanks mate going though it now ..
[21:56] <hggdh> dooglus, finally: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/jaunty/+source/tor/0.2.0.34-1ubuntu1 Tor has been removed from the repositories
[21:57] <Activity-> hey there, any one of you fellas using the jaunty netbook remix?
[21:58] <Activity-> i might have found a bug, but i'd like some confirmation, before i report it.
[21:58] <ActionParsnip> Activity-: wassup
[21:59] <ActionParsnip> not on netbook remix though
[22:01] <Jordan_U> calc: I don't have any ddeb line in my sources.list
[22:02] <Activity-> when i open the shutdown menu adn then hit the "cancel" button, the menu does not close.
[22:02] <Activity-> the "X" in the window title bar does close it.
[22:02] <Jordan_U> Is it normal that update-manager wants to install a lot of -dbg packages on upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04 ?
[22:02] <Activity-> maybe its just a messed up install, that's why i'd like so confirm it, before i report it.
[22:04] <ActionParsnip> Activity-: did you md5 check the iso you installed with? are you fully updated?
[22:06] <hggdh> Jordan_U, if you had them installed before the upgrade, yes
[22:06] <Jordan_U> hggdh: I didn't / don't ( I haven't upgraded yet )
[22:06] <Activity-> i used the netbook installer. running the check right now.
[22:07] <hggdh> Jordan_U, and you have *not* already installed .dbg's ?
[22:08] <hggdh> Jordan_U, also, .dbg is Debian-generated debug symbols, we mostly use .dbgsym
[22:08] <coppro> any ideas about flashplugin-nonfree?
[22:09] <Activity-> ActionParsnip, the md5 sums do match.
[22:09] <Activity-> i just ran the check on my 2nd netbook. same symptoms.
[22:09] <Activity-> im gonna re run the update, reboot and check again.
[22:10] <bigbrovar> guntbert: its a bug report and its not inspiring at all .. ubuntu still has a lot of work to do in other to get there ..
[22:11] <bigbrovar> guntbert: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/346083
[22:11] <ActionParsnip> Activity-: good
[22:12] <Activity-> takes a while with crappy 384kbps downstream
[22:12] <guntbert> bigbrovar: ok, thx for reporting back, as I said I guess I will wait a little....
[22:13] <bigbrovar> guntbert: yep we have no choice but to wait for some one to build a working ppa for fprintd and libusb .. knowing the ubuntu community and the kindness of their heart it wont be long :)
[22:17] <Kamitsukai1> Just added a bug report for my flash problem it appears it didn't add some plugin file to my .mozilla folder in home...
[22:19] <Activity-> ActionParsnip, update still underway. i made a quick check of the bugtracker, though. it appears no one else has reported the issue i stumbled upon, yet.
[22:21] <ActionParsnip> Activity-: get it logged'
[22:22] <tabgal> ok, has anyone seen something similar, in firefox, when you scroll down using pg down (for example) it scrolls not the page but the container. So I end up with a page rolled up (including scroll bar) but the bottom half is empty
[22:22] <Activity-> ActionParsnip, im gonna wait for the update's result.
[22:24] <ActionParsnip> tabgal: have you tried an extra profile?
[22:25] <tabgal> ActionParsnip, let me see
[22:27] <tabgal> ActionParsnip, ok, now I realised it only happens in a couple of pages, hummm
[22:27] <ActionParsnip> tabgal: possibly firefox rendering it wrong
[22:28] <tabgal> or maybe extentions...
[22:29] <tabgal> well, it's really, really weird
[22:29] <tabgal> but it only happens (as far as I found out) in orkut :/
[22:30] <Activity-> ActionParsnip, update didn't fix it.

[22:54] <IntuitiveNipple> Who broke Metacity and Xorg?!
[22:56] <awkorama> Hi. I would like to ask whether video playback will work out of box with desktop effects on nvidia cards with jaunty.
[22:57] <ienorand> IntuitiveNipple: Thas sounds kind of serious? o_O
[22:59] <ienorand> awkorama: For me it does: m8600gt dellxps1530 64bit (no video-drivers-worky on 32bit)
[22:59] <awkorama> no video drivers?
[23:00] <IntuitiveNipple> It feels it too! Rebooted a few minutes ago after a series of updates throughout the day. When metacity starts the first thing I noticed was that TomBoy notes are blank and stretched down the screen. Then I noticed the mouse cursor on the 2nd screen turns into the standard 'X' cursor, then found that applications have no window-decoration (so no system menu or min/max/close icons) and then found xchat couldn't get input focus on its text in
[23:00] <IntuitiveNipple> put boxes and hot-keys are ignored by metacity. I've had to start compiz to work-around it
[23:00] <ienorand> awkorama: They are there, but: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/342926
[23:01] <milen> hi there
[23:01] <awkorama> ienorand: I probably don't understand :).. you use 64bit ubuntu without video drivers?
[23:01] <milen> does anyone expericence crash of both nautilus and sound-juicer, after there's CD imported?
[23:01] <milen> I've been advised earlier to walk away from nautilus...
[23:02] <ienorand> awkorama: yes, and video driver for my particualar computer won't work on 32bit, not really much of an issue though.
[23:02] <milen> ...just trying to gather more info and thoughts..
[23:02] <IntuitiveNipple> Hmmm, libgtk and libpanel-applet and libgail updates today
[23:02] <awkorama> ienorand: so how do you load compiz without video driver?
[23:02] <ienorand> awkorama: Ah, I use 64bit _with_ drivers
[23:02] <milen> i'm on jaunty, btw
[23:02] <ienorand> awkorama: and they don't work on 32bit
[23:02] <awkorama> right
[23:03] <ienorand> awkorama: But that particualr issues is, I think, highly specific for my hardware...
[23:03] <awkorama> well i have intrepid with video drivers on 32bit ubuntu.. but when i turn compiz on i get this "bleeding" of picture
[23:03] <ienorand> *particular *issue
[23:03] <awkorama> as if vsync didn't work properly
[23:04] <xangua> awkorama: what video card do you use

[23:06] <milen> anyone? anyone have idea on the nautilus and sound-juicer's crash?
[23:07] <ajavid> hello guys
[23:07] <ienorand> IntuitiveNipple: on this side metacity seems to be ok...
[23:07] <ajavid> I am using the latest 9.04 on the website the RC
[23:07] <ajavid> E: I wasn't able to locate a file for the sun-java6-jre package. This might mean you need to manually fix this package. (due to missing arch)
[23:07] <ajavid> E: Internal error: couldn't generate list of packages to download
[23:07] <ajavid> I tried to install java plugin, I am on i386
[23:08] <ajavid> I can't even remove this package
[23:08] <ajavid> i can't isntall and/or remove ANYthing else
[23:08] <DrMrHorse> the beta updated is the same as the RC?
[23:09] <ienorand> DrMrHorse: Should be
[23:09] <DrMrHorse> neato, ty
[23:11] <ajavid> anyone?
[23:11] <ajavid> i typed aptitude install sun-java6-jre and all hell broke loose
[23:12] <ienorand> ajavid: test synaptic...?
[23:13] <kinley>  hi there, is the a repasitory for mysql-server-5.1 5.1.33 an ubuntu hardy 8.0.4.2 as backports or sim. ?
[23:21] <DrMrHorse> ajavid: can you install anything?
[23:22] <sevenhill> Hello everyone
[23:22] <sevenhill> i think i have found the reasons of Xfreezing on 9.04 but mouse still active
[23:23] <loquitus_of_bor1> Hi. My sound has stopped working, for no apparent reason. Sound card is still detected but no output! Should I remove pulse? Reset alsa? Please help. I am using Jaunty. Sound was working ok (it would sometimes die and I would have to restart the machine) but now it does not work at all.
[23:24] <jbotalan> So I found a bug with the notification system in 9.04, but I don't know how to check if it's been reported or not, or how to report it if it isn't.
[23:25] <sevenhill> jbotalan: is it about freezing QtCore ?
[23:25] <loquitus_of_bor1> Should I just remove pulseaudio if Sound is not working?
[23:26] <jbotalan> I don't understand your question, but what happens is I hold "volume up" and the volume notification flickers, consuming 50% (one core) of my CPU for several seconds.
[23:28] <Stealthcpe> is there any support with regards to fglrx on jaunty?
[23:34] <flips01> on my eee with jaunty UNR, I switched to classic desktop, but all the windows are maximized right away ... I suspect "maximus" to be the reason ... (My system was installed with alpha6 and has been dist-upgraded since then)  What's the correct way to disable this maximus? (Removing should work, but then I can't switch back to the other view if I want to or have other users)
[23:36] <topyli> flips01: sounds like a bug to me
[23:36] <topyli> maximus has a command line switch, something like --no-respawn which allows you to kill it
[23:36] <topyli> i think your session starts it without this switch and it keeps respawning
[23:37] <flips01> I guess so, and it might be gone if I installed fresh, but now I guess I could just disable it in gconf or something?
[23:37] <flips01> yes, I can't kill it
[23:37] <topyli> flips01: look at your session properties, find maximus and see if there are any command line switches
[23:37] <flips01> is it initially started by the default xinit script or something?
[23:37] <topyli> if not, you need to add that
[23:37] <topyli> it's started with your gnome session
[23:38] <flips01> ah, look under Sessions in gnome
[23:38] <topyli> i forget the exact switch, see if it has a man page
[23:39]  * flips01 is looking ... :)
[23:39] <topyli> (i don't have the remix handy here)
[23:39] <Stealthcpe> Hi there, I have an ATI Radeon HD2400 that I wish to use with my system, running Kubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Release Candidate.  This would involve the binary driver fglrx.  On previous versions of Ubuntu I was able to select this driver in the restricted driver manager
[23:40] <Stealthcpe> however this doesn't appear in Jaunty yet.  Is there problems with this driver and the new Xorg?
[23:40] <topyli> "man maximus" was not a very smart google search :)
[23:41] <flips01> can't I just remove it from startup apps, as I use classic gnome desktop
[23:41] <flips01> man page says nothinh
[23:41] <topyli> flips01: oh you will only want to use the classic? why don't you just remove the remix packages?
[23:42] <flips01> topyli: well, I thought maybe my girlfriend would like the remix interface
[23:42] <topyli> flips01: i do think the session switcher should start it whenever you want to use netbook mode
[23:42] <flips01> maximus --help worked
[23:42] <topyli> however, it should be killed when switched back. there's your bug
[23:42] <flips01> -s or --no-restart
[23:42] <topyli> ah ok
[23:43] <topyli> so add that to the maximus command in the session
[23:45] <flips01> I did, and now I can kill it ... but then again, why not just remove it ... that worked even better :)
[23:45] <topyli> hrm actually i would like to know more about this desktop switcher thing. it must work in the same session, so how is it supposed to handle things like maximus anyway?
[23:46] <flips01> the only thing I miss in my window maker/gnome now, is the ability to turn off the titlebar for some windows
[23:46] <flips01> is that possible in metacity/gnome?
[23:46] <topyli> flips01: well, maximus a pretty good hack when used with the taskbar applet
[23:47] <topyli> flips01: i don't think so. on my eeepc i just use a metacity theme that has no titlebar on any window :)
[23:47] <flips01> eh s/maker/manager/ in the previous statement :)
[23:48] <topyli> yeah i don't think window maker has that feature either
[23:48] <flips01> topyli: cool, made yourself or downloaded somewhere?
[23:48] <topyli> flips01: it's called "no-title" and you should find it at gnome-look.org
[23:48] <topyli> or "notitle", i forget
[23:49] <flips01> I like fvwm2 and open/fluxbox and such, but there is so many small applets and such that are so nicely integrated in the gnome environment
[23:50] <flips01> topyli: I'll find it ... would be even better with toggle titlebar or something like that, though
[23:50] <flips01> full screen is nice, though
[23:51] <flips01> hm, the software update applet/thingie doesn't show
[23:53] <topyli> if you want a window manager that lets you define different decorations (like no titlebar) for certain windows or window types, you want fvwm or enlightenment (the stable e16 not the new crack)
[23:55] <flips01> yes, I've used fvwm for more than a decade :) But on my netbook, it's nice with all the gnome applets
[23:55] <flips01> and it integrated better with metacity
[23:56] <topyli> well fvwm does work perfectly in gnome :)
[23:57] <Stealthii> Hi there.  What version of X.org does Jaunty use?
[23:57] <flips01> I had some trouble/issues with fvwm2 and gnome, but that was a while back
[23:57] <topyli> all sane window managers support the same ewmh window manager hints anyway
[23:57] <kole> okay wierd issue
[23:57] <yofel> Stealthii: 1.6
[23:57] <Stealthii> hmm
[23:57] <kole> I updated to the release candidate and all of a sudden opera wont play flash... its in the plugins folder and everything but alas... nothing works
[23:57] <topyli> flips01: but true, metacity is best integrated
[23:57] <Stealthii> I thought it used the 7.x version line?
