=== ember_ is now known as ember [03:52] hey. I'm having a kernel panic I beleive. w/ my wireless on, my system will freeze after a few min, leavign the capslock light blinking [03:52] I apt-get installed the iwl4965 drivers and I beleive i have the latest ones... [03:52] I'd love to try and resolve this. === dmb_ is now known as dmb [08:57] hi [08:57] I wrote a little patch for 2.6.28 kernel, it has been accepted by the lnux kernel team and is now part of 2.6.30. Is there any chance to have it already applied on Jaunty's kernel ? [08:59] cbo: #ubuntu-kernel may be more appropriate for discussing patch inclusion [09:00] ok, I already posted the same message to the #ubuntu-kernel channel but got no answer yet ;-) [09:00] but what you're looking for is a Stable Release Update (SRU), and has rules to be satisfied before consideration [09:00] first, it must be in ubuntu+1 (karmic) [09:01] second, it should have a launchpad bug report [09:02] The patch do just add one USB product id, there is no logic modification. So it's really safe. [09:03] the kernel team is a smaller group of people, who may not watch IRC like a hawk [09:04] if you tire of waiting for a response, I'd suggest mailing the ubuntu kernel team Mailing List [09:05] ok, i'll be patient and fill a bug report. [09:05] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/KernelUpdates also applies [09:06] I'll have a look at this [09:09] If someone is interested in having a fully useable Logitech G25 wheel, you can have a look here : http://wiki.vdrift.net/Logitech_G25_support and http://wiki.vdrift.net/Enabling_force_feedback_in_kernel [09:14] There is already a bug report for the G25 wheel (https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/181361). I'll post a comment. [09:14] Ubuntu bug 181361 in linux "Logitech G25 does not fully work with Ubuntu" [Undecided,New] [09:14] ;-) [09:24] hi [09:24] i need some help packaging my program [09:25] so the name is gfire, the src dir is named gfire too, but we would like to see it named pidgin-gfire for the package system, how do you do that? [09:26] i see it creates a dir named "gfire" in debian/ so it should be pidgin-gfire, right? [09:27] so i tried with package: pidgin-gfire and source: gfire, but it fails [09:28] htrejh: Please join #ubuntu-motu for packaging questions. [09:28] ok, my bad didn't know [09:28] but it's a personal package [09:28] not for inclusion in ubuntu [09:30] It doesn't really matter whether is a personal package or not, packaging questions ought to go in #ubuntu-motu. === Nicke_ is now known as Nicke === azeem_ is now known as azeem [13:29] Riddell: I'm a bit curious about your eet 1.1.0+svn35608-0ubuntu1 upload ... 1.1.0 was released on r36234 === edson is now known as puzzle [13:30] hi are there any plans to make patches for empathy [13:30] so that it attains feature parity with pidgin [13:30] before putting it in karmic ? [13:32] tgpraveen_: are you talking about upstream development? [13:32] maybe you should engage the empathy authors if you want to help [13:33] azeem: well since karmic is going to replace pidgin and it still lacks some features over it [13:33] i wanted to know if there were plans to add some patches etc [13:33] i mean at uds was something like this discussed> [13:33] ? [13:35] dunno, I wasn't there [13:35] I guess the desktop team will assess which features, if any, would be blockers if not implemented in empathy [13:36] Riddell: to me, it looks like you pretty much reverted eet 1.1.0 to eet 1.0.1, that seems really really weird [15:13] Is it possible to read from backtraces if the error is in the application or in the hardware of the user e.g ram-memory? [15:14] askand, Not really, although one can sometimes guess based on context. [15:16] persia: I see, thanks [15:16] Here are two traces I've collected http://launchpadlibrarian.net/27330457/trace.txt and http://pastebin.com/m17f6c698 === puzzle is now known as edson [17:55] Are there any sed experts who can help me figure out how to replace a line "Author: Name LastName " with "[ Name LastName ]". I've gotten close, but I can't figure out how to remove email and bracket the end. [18:13] ripps: sed -r 's,.*: (.*) (.*) <.*>,[ \1 \2 ],' might do the trick [18:14] Lutin: the guys in #sed are helping me, and it turns out the bigger picture is more complicated [18:15] mostly depends on what you're actually trying to parse [18:17] there is an actual email regex [18:17] it is the stuff of nightmares [18:17] just use antlr and call it a day [19:20] Hi there [19:21] Compiz Frustrations abound after upgrading to 9.04 [19:24] jayandgina: you should have read the release notes. i believe the performance regression was a very major issue in 9.04. i'm not sure it's still around, but i'd reckon a guess that it is [19:28] bummer :( [19:28] hyperair: Any idea how i downgrade to the previous version? [19:28] jayandgina: there's a PPA containing the package xserver-xorg-video-intel-2.4 [19:29] jayandgina: ify ou add that PPA and install that pacakge, it will uninstall the new and install the old [19:29] jayandgina: dig around in the ubuntu-devel archives for it. [19:30] where do i find it? [19:31] google. [19:31] Well, since it's likely to be a post from april or may, lists.ubuntu.com might be just as good. [19:31] mmmhmm [19:32] i remember it appearing before jaunty's release [19:32] which means april [19:33] Oh my... it's a little overwhelming trying to find this :( [19:35] hyperair: what do i do when i find it? [19:51] How do I downgrade to a previous graphics driver?? [19:52] jayandgina, Firstly, this isn't a support channel (try #ubuntu). Secondly, it's decidedly nontrivial, as the modern drivers sometimes have kernel interactions. [19:53] Persia: Thanks [19:58] jayandgina: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReinhardTartler/X/RevertingIntelDriverTo2.4 [20:00] jayandgina: or you might create another partition, and install Ubuntu 8.10 on it, and use it till you can be sure your 9.04 suits you, or till 9.10 arrives (and I advise keeping 8.10 while testing either 9.04/9.10) [20:00] Can someone help figure this out? I'm making a specialized debian changelog script, and I've got most of it finished, except I can't figure out to import my gather changelog information into dch. dch doesn't seem to allow file imports, so how can I get it work? [20:03] ripps, `dch $(echo $(cat foo))` might do it, or perhaps `sed 's/^/dch /' < foo` [20:11] persia: nope, neither worked, the added the file, but it ignored formatting and added the names of every subdirectory. the sed method did nothing [21:13] no gtk updates today? [21:19] i would be surprised if there are much updates today at all since many people are in the process of returning home from UDS [21:20] or are recovering from their flight home, heh [21:33] calc: it takes 27 seconds for the Open dialog to open [21:33] the whole application stalls that long, then the window appears [21:33] the general gtk open dialog in anything, or what? [21:34] Music->Import File in rhythmbox [21:34] Add attachment in Thunderbird [21:34] Browse for a file upload form in Firefox [21:34] oh hmm, it seemed to work ok for me before i started doing a reinstall [21:34] i had to do a reinstall because my drive appears to be failing [21:34] :| [21:35] i'm on a 64 bit install [21:35] i'm still backing it up at the moment then will be scanning the whole drive for bad sectors and trying to force a remap [21:35] i was too, until earlier today, will be reinstalling 64bit once i get my drive fixed [21:36] bluefoxicy: hmm do you have a loopback interface enabled, sometimes apps have weird issues if it is missing [21:36] not sure if that applies for this case [21:37] yeah [21:38] ok, then i am not sure what would be causing the issue, you probably should file a bug if one isn't already filed about the issue [21:40] backing up 130GB over USB is really slow :-\ [21:49] shtylman: hi [21:50] calc: hi [21:50] shtylman: how are things going :) [21:51] calc: quite good...waiting for OOo to build :) [21:51] cool, i'm having to test my laptop hd and reinstall, having bad sector issues with it [21:51] so i won't have email access for a while (maybe later today/tomorrow) [21:51] ouch [21:52] get a new drive? [21:53] i might i need to see if this one will just remap and work [21:53] if it doesn't i need to RMA it, its a seagate momentus 7200.4 500gb and was really new when i got it so might not have had all the bugs worked out yet [21:54] ahh gotcha [21:54] yea...I would RMA...wouldn't take the chance with my data :) [21:55] generally drive manufacturers require their app to report it needs RMA before they will accept one, which is why i am going to test it and see first, having to back it up over usb which just finished after ~ 3hr [21:55] luckily i only had 130gb on it [21:55] * calc wishes his laptop had esata [21:55] heh [22:06] how to get a new version of a package into karmic ? :) === tkamppeter_ is now known as tkamppeter [23:05] calc, i wish my laptop had >1 usb instead of an esata port [23:41] i find that ubuntu fails to load up when i plug any sort of device into the usb slots of the monitor [23:42] it wuold happen to fedora as well, although i've stopped using it so i can't verift if it still exists [23:51] how can i debug it [23:59] anyoone?
