greg-ggeez, I'm getting a lot of notices that apport retracer is marking bugs duplicate, I guess it is catching up.00:42
bdmurraygreg-g: It's working with failed retraces and bugs with CoreDumps still attached00:44
andresmujicaping asac00:50
greg-gbdmurray: gotcha. I've already received 23 emails in the past 2 hours. Pretty fun, actually.00:54
bdmurraygreg-g: that's it? ;-)00:54
greg-gbdmurray: heh, I'm sure that's nothing compared to some people in this channel :)00:55
bdmurrayI think its a good thing to do and the e-mail should be easy enough to filter00:56
greg-goh yeah, no complaints from me. All those emails go to the "Bugs" folder anyways.00:56

XCP2will these related xorg & ATI & fglrx memory bugs (that have existed since end of march) EVER be fixed? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/372345 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/353800/?loggingout=1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/351186?comments=all04:31
ubot4Launchpad bug 372345 in fglrx-installer "Compiz memory leak   /   Xorg memory leak" [Low,Incomplete]04:31
XCP2xorg takes up 5GB+ after quite a while, maximizing windows will sometimes last 3-4 seconds! it makes many systems pretty unusable04:32
HobbseeXCP2: given that they're ATI, probably not.04:33
Hobbseeare they bugs in xorg, or bugs in the ATI binary drivers?04:33
XCP2I can't tell for sure. but it occured since users upgraded to 9.04... it did not exist in 8.10... so users have to live with this forever?!04:34
dtchenthere is some indication that new upstream has resolved the issue04:35
XCP2new upstream?04:35
Hobbseeupstream xorg, presumably04:37
dtchensorry, upstream ATI04:37
XCP2dtchen: what do you mean by that and how do I get it?04:39
Hobbseelooks like 351186 has a ppa linked to it, so presumably that will get integrated if ti works for everyone affected.04:39
XCP2Hobbsee: you mean this one https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/xserver-no-backfill ?04:41
HobbseeXCP2: yes04:41
XCP2Hobbsee: forgive me my noobishness, but how do I apply it w/o compiling the whole thing from source...04:47
XCP2and if this patch solves the issue, is this an ATI card issue then? so, would using a non-ATI card solve this memory hog problem?04:49
HobbseeXCP2: they have binaries there, in that ppa04:49
Hobbseeand very likely - i've not seen it on my intel card04:49
Hobbseewhich you can install with gdebi, etc04:50
XCP2so buying a new non-ATI video card will solve this problem and many others that will most likely come up not before long (from my experience)04:52
micahgXCP2: the ATI file will generate .debs for you04:53
XCP2micahg: huh? what do you mean?04:54
micahgIf you download the .sh file from ATI, you can generate .deb files for your ubuntu version04:54
XCP2yes, I know that :)04:55
XCP2we're talking about the patch I linked to above04:55
micahgyou were talking about upstream releases04:55
micahgI know ATI released at least 1 version isince Jaunty was released04:56
micahg8.61204:56
* XCP2 checks04:56
XCP2micahg: I have that installed.04:56
XCP2Hobbsee: http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-x-swat/xserver-no-backfill/ubuntu/pool/main/x/xorg-server/ ... which binaries should I use? AMD64 is clear to me, but the rest?04:58
HobbseeXCP2: it's probably easiest to add the entire repository listed on https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/xserver-no-backfill05:01
Hobbseeseeing as that seems to only be for that patch05:01
Hobbseei don't know which binaries you actually need05:02
XCP2oh... you mean adding these two lines starting with "deb" to my /etc/apt/sources.list?05:02
Hobbseeyes05:02
XCP2thanks... I'll try that later :)05:02

micahgIs an app responsible for telling the OS that it handles a certain type of file?07:32
micahgor is that centralized in a package?07:32
persiamicahg, That's a centralised system, with information provided per-package.  There's two ways to do it: one is the Debian MIME system, and the other is the XDG MIME system.  Packages are encouraged to use both.07:33
micahgok07:34
micahgpersia: is that for defaults or just that it can handle that type?07:34
persiaYes.07:35
micahgwhich one ? :)07:35
persiaMore specifically, that it can handle that type, and that the defaults are selected based on the handlers.07:35
micahgthanks persia07:36
persiaso, you might end up with different default behaviours depending on which packages are installed.07:36

hggdhpedro_, do you use Evolution?16:40
pedro_hggdh: yeap, anything you want me to test?16:43
XCP2hi. there's a bug in xorg in the newer versions of ubuntu that has not been fixed. however, there is a PPA on launchpad that apparently fixes the problem (not in clean way, but it's okay for me). Now my question: if I apply this PPA patch and some time later there is an official ubuntu patch for this problem, or any other update to xorg, will and can this newer update still be applied, although I manually changed my xorg some time before?16:47
hggdhpedro_, I wrote an Apport evolution hook. Brian will test it a bit, and I would like to know if you are also willing to16:48
pedro_hggdh: sure, saw your report with the info btw, where's the hook?16:48
hggdhI will email you it16:49
