[02:13] <billisnice> 9.04 trying to set up a network printer on window xp machine.  When I get to browse on samba the print routine just disappears...
[02:14] <billisnice> It worked fine with 8.04 same puters
[02:14] <billisnice> i am in devel
[02:14] <billisnice> i will go to ubuntu
[04:05] <calc> do the current karmic desktop disks work ok?
[04:05] <calc> as in todays?
[04:49] <calc> bryce: ping
[04:50] <calc> bryce: is there a problem with the jaunty intel driver having mild video corruption issues like with drawing fonts... having trash on them, etc
[04:53]  * calc is going to see how karmic does
[04:57] <ScottK> calc: Did you try UXA or "MigrationHeuristic" "greedy"?
[04:59] <calc> ScottK: no, it did seem to work for a long time without issues but now its starting to look weird
[04:59] <calc> its not slow but actual graphical corruption
[04:59] <calc> and i'm not doing 3d
[04:59] <ScottK> I had that (particularly bad in Qt apps, which sucks for me) and both those solutions helped it.
[05:00] <ScottK> UXA was unstable for me, so I settled on "MigrationHeuristic" "greedy"
[05:00] <calc> ok
[05:01]  * calc wonders why it used to work fine but now seems to be happening all the time
[05:04] <calc> ScottK: you'll be at UDS right?
[05:04] <ScottK> Dunno.  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] <ScottK> calc: yes.
[05:05] <calc> great :)
[05:08] <mdl-unit> Now 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 bug
[08:54] <cjwatson> calc: 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 install
[08:58] <Unggnu> hi all
[08:59] <Unggnu> Do 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 not
[09:09] <cjwatson> Unggnu: the only difference between the version of Flash in hardy and jaunty in the partner repository seems to be a dependency change ...
[09:10] <cjwatson> adobe-flashplugin | 10.0.22.87-2 | hardy/partner | source, i386, lpia
[09:10] <cjwatson> adobe-flashplugin | 10.0.22.87-2intrepid1 | intrepid/partner | source, i386, lpia
[09:11] <Unggnu> cjwatson: hm, I was looking under http://archive.canonical.com/pool/partner/a/adobe-flashplugin/
[09:11] <cjwatson> actually there's no obvious difference in those packages at all
[09:12] <cjwatson> I ran debdiff and the only difference is the changelog
[09:12] <Unggnu> The problem is that Hardy ships with Flash 9 which has problems with Pulse. But if you upgrade it manually you miss the security updates
[09:12] <cjwatson> Unggnu: I don't think that pool is properly garbage-collected
[09:12] <Unggnu> cjwatson: Great I thought only 10.0.15.3-1 was for hardy
[09:12] <cjwatson> so there are still old versions lying around - but if you use apt you'll get 10.0.22.87-2
[09:13] <Unggnu> thx
[09:13] <Unggnu> This should fix the security problem
[09:13] <cjwatson> Unggnu: 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] <cjwatson> Unggnu: the person listed at the top of the changelog (Brian Thomason) is probably the best contact
[09:13] <Unggnu> Sure but it would be great if Flash for Hardy could be upgraded between the desktop support time of three years.
[09:14] <Unggnu> thx
[09:14] <cjwatson> but it has been
[09:40] <OuZo> Hi, I am trying to compile mpi-ruby. Apparently ubuntu re-names libruby to somthing else. here is my build error paste: http://rafb.net/p/dTptn847.html
[09:43] <OuZo> in scr/Makefile the LDFLAGS look like this:
[09:43] <OuZo> http://rafb.net/p/RK11gw23.html
[14:13] <Keybuk> curious
[14:13] <Keybuk> all my maintainer scripts in /var/lib/dpkg/info vanished
[14:15] <ion_> Huh
[16:13] <hyperair> could someone look at bug #361372?
[16:13] <hyperair> debdiff attached.
[16:13] <hyperair> needs sponsoring.
[19:52] <calc> how do i erase a gpt label from a disk?
[19:52] <calc> i erased the first 100MB+ and it still shows up
[20:17] <calc> ah there is a backup copy at the end of the disk
[23:38]  * calc is now running karmic and restoring his data :)
