[02:37] my firefox will not open on my ubuntu puter? 9.04 [02:38] billisnice: #ubuntu is the channel for support. [05:20] Hi. I've got a question about developing a .deb for Ubuntu that creates a file association in Gnome and KDE. Is this the right place? [05:20] (That is, a .deb to run on Ubuntu - not part of Ubuntu itself) [05:23] duncan: Basic packaging questions (which it sounds like that is) are better asked on #ubuntu-motu [05:24] Thanks :-) === bluesmoke_ is now known as Amaranth [09:59] my screen resolution does not stay, it switch when i reboot and is so small i barely can see it. === thunderstruck is now known as gnomefreak [11:13] * zhxk finds a messy code that appears on bum, and want's to know where does the discription to the items comfrom:http://imagebin.ca/view/BLL1WLF.html [11:40] #ubuntu-dev [12:16] kirkland`: the client uses the private key to sign a message proving that it has the public key - it doesn't give the private key to the server (and it would be a serious security breach if it did), so pam modules invoked from /etc/pam.d/ssh have no access to it. To make that work I think you'd need to get into ssh protocol extensions, as you'd need to arrange to send the wrapped passphrase back to the client for unwrapping === DrKranz is now known as DktrKranz [13:56] Hello , how i do install application using direct link for e.g. "http://argouml-downloads.tigris.org/nonav/argouml-0.28/ArgoUML-0.28-src.tar.gz" === hunger_ is now known as hunger [14:03] cjwatson: ping?

[16:55] james_w: oh, good call :-) [16:55] pitti: sorry for the spam :-) [16:57] hmm, would an annoying UI bug that was introduced via an Ubuntu patch seem like an SRU candidate? === hypera1r is now known as hyperair === jdong___ is now known as j-dizzle === dmesg is now known as edsoncanto === edsoncanto is now known as ecanto === yofel_ is now known as yofel [19:44] Ooo, unattended-upgrades uses apt-listchanges in jaunty. It was so minor an annoyance i never got around to reporting it not executing apt-listchanges, but i’m happy now that it does. [19:45] will anything break if i install notification-daemon [19:45] i want the old one [19:47] Ah, someone else had reported it. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=507639 [19:47] Debian bug 507639 in unattended-upgrades "unattended-upgrades: apt-listchanges not triggered" [Important,Closed] [19:49] shall i just remove notify-osd? [21:39] The overall look of the distribution is also likely to be refreshed. "Brown has served us well but the Koala is considering other options," Shuttleworth noted. [21:39] Oh noes. Brown is good. [21:40] lots of people seem to take issue with earth tones though...not quite sure why [21:44] i don't like brown [21:44] ugh it's artwork. Can't we focus on making things work instead? or is that a lost cause? [21:44] stuff doesn't work? [21:44] to put it bluntly, when i first used ubuntu (6.06) i thought the interface looked like shit, and changing the theme was one of the first things i did [21:45] mdke: there's always room for improvement. [21:45] jdong: I think there are a few bugs still outstanding [21:45] bootup speed, X flickering, intel/X stability is a major nightmare for me, IO interactivity particularly with Firefox.... [21:45] now don't get me wrong I love my Ubuntu machines and am satisfied with them, not trying to troll here [21:45] but there's certainly always room for improvement [21:45] the artwork has never tended to be a thing that's bothered me. the theme's appearance and usability is fine to me [21:46] flickering i don't see [21:46] but i seriously lost it earlier when i got three hard locks in two hours [21:46] hyperair: it takes about 2 seconds to flip from X to a VT. [21:46] 2 seconds huh [21:46] which has to be done on suspend and resume. [21:46] i don't switch to VTs much heh [21:46] oh! [21:46] hmm [21:46] big problem. [21:46] i don't suppose KMS can help this? [21:46] compare that to my macbook running OS X which resumes in 150ms from lid-up to ping response. [21:47] I think KMS is supposed to help [21:47] but I don't think it'll be on the order of 150ms resume. [21:47] and when you use a laptop on-the-go occasionally, suspend-resume speed is a big deal [21:47] 150ms.. [21:47] that is crazy. [21:47] how do you measure 150ms? [21:47] hyperair: the unlock screen is waiting before I can pull the lid up. [21:47] ..shit [21:48] hyperair: 10ms ping polling from another system [21:48] over *WIFI* [21:48] O_O [21:48] how much of that 150ms is re-establishing wifi? :) [21:48] I'm convinced the network links up before the CCFL backlight can engage. [21:48] I've heard the LED macbooks resume even faster. [21:48] jdong: my macbook also resumes that fast; but I don't think it's suspended when you close the lid [21:48] just sleep or sth [21:49] (dunnow the accurate terms) [21:49] Chipzz: it's put into S3+S4 hybrid. [21:49] Chipzz: that is, it writes out a hibernate to disk image AND then goes into RAM sleep [21:49] Chipzz: that way if battery runs out it can resume from disk, if battery remains it will wake like normal standby [21:49] what I *do* like is that if your battery runs out while the lid is closed, it automatically hibernates [21:50] hrrrm ah k [21:50] the suspend part takes about 10 seconds to write out the encrypted RAM image. [21:50] the resume part is instant if you don't lose battery power [21:50] yeah [21:50] one of the things I like about osx :) [21:50] you can use a pmset command to turn off the hibernate image so suspend is instant too [21:50] (or is that not os specific?) [21:51] Chipzz: Windows Vista does the hybrid sleep thing too [21:51] and there is support in Linux too via the s2both command but I've never gotten it working [21:51] namely it takes well over 30 seconds to write something out, but neither resume from RAM nor resume from disk worked in Intrepid. [21:52] not running linux on mine though [21:53] () [21:53] I dual on my macbook but to be honest most of the time on the go it runs OS X. [21:53] apart from the suspend-resume thing, our entire campus is Cisco 24-channel MIMO 802.11N connected [21:54] and OS X can easily pull 13MB/s up and down [21:54] Ubuntu kernel panics when ath9k tries to connect to 5.8GHz N [21:54] seems to be a known ath9k upstream bug [21:55] recent model? [21:55] no, this is older, the first core2duo generation black plastic. [21:55] the newer ones use broadcom cards which ironically work better if you use go-to-RMS-hell drivers [21:55] hrrrm [21:55] and are apparently a lot less expensive too [21:56] I've been considering shelling out the 20 bucks to swap in one of those [21:56] didn't know 802.11N did go that far back [21:56] the atheros A+G chipset that was in those macbooks could be firmware-upgraded to N [21:56] yay software defined radios! [21:56] see, firmware is not evil! *grin* :) [21:57] lol [21:57] as long as it's redistributable IMO I don't see the difference between it being loaded on by the OS or by the OEM in factory. It's still a blob we can't change. [21:57] well, I wouldn't call a free upgrade to N evil anyway :P [21:59] anyway, afk again :) [22:01] hyperair: i thought feisty's wallpaper looked like chocolate milk. one of my cousins called it mousse and wanted to get a spoon to try to eat her screen [22:02] lol [22:02] that's hilarious === mnem0 is now known as mnemo
