calcdo the current karmic desktop disks work ok?04:05
calcas in todays?04:05
calcbryce: ping04:49
calcbryce: is there a problem with the jaunty intel driver having mild video corruption issues like with drawing fonts... having trash on them, etc04:50
* calc is going to see how karmic does04:53
ScottKcalc: Did you try UXA or "MigrationHeuristic" "greedy"?04:57
calcScottK: no, it did seem to work for a long time without issues but now its starting to look weird04:59
calcits not slow but actual graphical corruption04:59
calcand i'm not doing 3d04:59
ScottKI had that (particularly bad in Qt apps, which sucks for me) and both those solutions helped it.04:59
ScottKUXA was unstable for me, so I settled on "MigrationHeuristic" "greedy"05:00
calcok05:00
* calc wonders why it used to work fine but now seems to be happening all the time05:01
calcScottK: you'll be at UDS right?05:04
ScottKDunno.  Computers are weird.  I've got one bug that never used to happen to me that started happening several times a day once someone told me about it.05:04
ScottKcalc: yes.05:04
calcgreat :)05:05
mdl-unitNow this is snazzy/funny.  I'm running Karmic in virtualbox, with the guest using compiz while the host is unable to due to the i965 bug05:08

cjwatsoncalc: don't bother with desktop CDs yet - there's no union filesystem available in karmic so they aren't going to work even a little bit. Use the alternates if you need to install08:54
Unggnuhi all08:58
UnggnuDo you have any influence on the partner repository? The Flash player for Hardy has still the old version with the security problems while Jaunty and Intrepid not08:59
cjwatsonUnggnu: the only difference between the version of Flash in hardy and jaunty in the partner repository seems to be a dependency change ...09:09
cjwatsonadobe-flashplugin | 10.0.22.87-2 | hardy/partner | source, i386, lpia09:10
cjwatsonadobe-flashplugin | 10.0.22.87-2intrepid1 | intrepid/partner | source, i386, lpia09:10
Unggnucjwatson: hm, I was looking under http://archive.canonical.com/pool/partner/a/adobe-flashplugin/09:11
cjwatsonactually there's no obvious difference in those packages at all09:11
cjwatsonI ran debdiff and the only difference is the changelog09:12
UnggnuThe problem is that Hardy ships with Flash 9 which has problems with Pulse. But if you upgrade it manually you miss the security updates09:12
cjwatsonUnggnu: I don't think that pool is properly garbage-collected09:12
Unggnucjwatson: Great I thought only 10.0.15.3-1 was for hardy09:12
cjwatsonso there are still old versions lying around - but if you use apt you'll get 10.0.22.87-209:12
Unggnuthx09:13
UnggnuThis should fix the security problem09:13
cjwatsonUnggnu: in general, people on this channel don't have influence over the contents of partner, though (I can inspect it, but that's all)09:13
cjwatsonUnggnu: the person listed at the top of the changelog (Brian Thomason) is probably the best contact09:13
UnggnuSure but it would be great if Flash for Hardy could be upgraded between the desktop support time of three years.09:13
Unggnuthx09:14
cjwatsonbut it has been09:14
