qixcomhi, I noticed a strange issue and was wondering whether anyone else has noticed... When I open synaptic and it asks for the root password it keeps telling me that the password is wrong when its not... I know that for a fact, whats stranger is that when I open an application with the sudo command and enter the password it works00:23
douglasawh-work2is it actually asking for root or sudo?00:24
douglasawh-work2those are two different things00:24
douglasawh-work2though, root would be odd00:25
bcurtiswxwhats the proper command line way to upgrade from jaunty to karmic00:26
yofelqixcom: do you have all updates installed? I remember some talk about a gksu bug that was fixed a few hours ago00:26
qixcomWell I just upgraded a few hours ago so it might have updated when I was upgrading00:26
qixcomjust installing firefox3.5 and empathy(thank god for the terminal) :)00:27
yofelqixcom: check update-manager for updates on libgksu00:27
yofelor apt-get if update-manager won't work ;)00:27
yofelbcurtiswx: why do you want to update per cli?00:28
yofels/update/upgrade00:28
qixcomWhen is firefox supposed to get proper branding?00:29
bcurtiswxyofei: just wondering.. i know of the update-manager -d, but last time i tried that when it installed the new GDM it restarted my session and i think parts of the install got screwed up00:30
bcurtiswxyofel: ^^00:30
qixcombcurtiswx - I just performed an update-manager -d a few hours ago and gdm works :)00:30
yofelbcurtiswx: oh, *that* bug is fixed now if that's what's holding you back, other than that I only know about editing sources.lst and upgrade with apt-get dist-upgrade or better with aptitude00:31
bcurtiswxqixcom, cool.. this could be a system specific problem00:31
bcurtiswxyofel: ok thx00:31
qixcombcurtiswx - doubtful, I would assume the bug would be related to the greeter00:31
yofelthe fault was a broken postinst script that restarted gdm during the update -> *bad* idea ;)00:32
qixcomactually, was kinda warm and fuzzy inside when I saw that ubuntu made the switch to the new gdm00:32
qixcomyofel - ouch00:32
qixcomyofel - any idea whether the new greater is in development yet?00:33
yofelqixcom: what do you mean? The message that says something about simple-greeter settings not saved?00:33
qixcomyofel - no, I had a convo with macslow quite some time ago about the facebrowser and the requirements for it.. apparently the greater needs some work post migration to the new gdm00:34
qixcomso we are at least half way there00:34
qixcom:)00:35
yofelno idea abou that, *I* want a new gdmsetup fast, fiddling around with gconf is annoying :P00:36
qixcomyofel - I was surprised when I found out there was still no new gdmsetup considering how long its been on fedora00:38
isamarhi folks...00:46

DanaG"the gdm issue"?03:06
oldude67yeah about a week ago i did a stupid partial update and it hasnt worked right since.03:07
billybigrigger_whats wrong?03:07
oldude67no matter how i try to change it from kdm it defaults right back to it.03:07
oldude67when booting it says in an error window to configure it manually and i have done that several times.03:08
billybigrigger_ya ya, thats fixed03:09
billybigrigger_at least its coming03:09
oldude67oh ok..so its not just me?03:09

billybigrigger_be patient :P03:09
DanaGCOnfigure it manually?  whaddaya mean, configure it manually?03:10
oldude67oh i just thought maybe i wasnt doing something right or something stupid03:10
DanaG"Reopen windows manually" you mean?03:10
DanaGsorry, the wording you used was a bit odd. =þ03:10
oldude67no it says gdm has to be configured manually and defaults back to kdm03:10
* DanaG hopes rebooting will fix the damned audio.03:10
oldude67i said it right03:10
DanaGAh, different issue than I have, then.03:10
oldude67yeah03:11
billybigrigger_oh, maybe something different then what im thinking too03:11
oldude67audio working fine for now....fixed alsa03:11

oldude67i just did a alsa reload and mine came back..but i have rebooted since then too.03:12

JonDoe297nhasian: hello :)08:25
nhasianJonDoe297, how's karmic treating you these days?08:25
JonDoe297well, everything is OK, but I have encountered with some mysterious GIMP freeze yesterday08:26
nhasianhmm i dont use gimp much except to resize photos ^_^08:26
JonDoe297I can't use it - after opening image, and trying to do something with instrument on it, X freezes08:27
nhasianlet me see if i can duplicate the issue.08:27
JonDoe297I think you will not have this issue08:27
nhasianif i can use the crop tool on the picture, will that be enough?08:27
JonDoe297yes, try crop tool08:27
nhasiani did not have any freezes so i guess thats a good thing :)08:29
JonDoe297just as I said :)08:29
JonDoe297I think that's because I'm using Sarvatt's PPA for Xorg Testing (https://edge.launchpad.net/~sarvatt/+archive/xorg-testing)08:29

ctphi folks. would you recommend karmic for daily work for someone beeing linux user for more than 10 years? so i'm expecting _some_ bugs but need a system which is stable enough to work with ;-)10:01
hifiI run karmic, have since the repository went online10:01
hifiI think it depends what kind of software are you running10:02
hifimy home desktop runs only openbox and on top of it rxvt-unicode and firefox so the combination is pretty solid, not too many moving parts that might broke10:02
ctphifi: i wanna run kde 4.3 ;-) never touched kde before (except for some tests ;-)). but 4.3 seems to rock ;-)10:04
umask001ctp: what features are new in kde that are cool?10:06
ctpumask001: i began coding qt. the widget framework is really cool. i need a vis widget for mesh networks which i'll code on 4.310:08
ctpumask001: qt seems to make coder's life easier.10:09
reto`I don't understand why KDE/GNOME are not joining forces to create a new GUI. It doesn't help much to have two "competing" major window managers. Linux would be advancing much faster like that.10:11
kklimondareto`: because KDE and GNOME has different views at Usability10:12
reto`kklimonda: hmm... what are those differences?10:13
umask001it's strange.. I used windowmaker for years.  Switched to Gnome because it was somewhat like CDE which I was using at work.  I liked CDE because it was unobtrusive (even though it was ugly as hell).  I've always disliked KDE, but now it's much more like CDE than Gnome ever was10:13
kklimondareto`: franky speaking, I don't remember as I don't follow the issue.10:16
kklimondareto`: also the other important factor is a GTK+ vs. QT debate.10:16
ctpreto`: linux is a basaar. it's good that it offers 3-4 big desktop environments, dozens of window managers, 10 web servers, 6 smtp servers, cvs/svn/git/mercurial, dozens mailers etc. it's hard enough to manage kde with maybe hundred developers ;-)10:16
kklimondactp: why is it good wrt desktop environments (and ui toolkits)?10:18
ctpreto`: what's important is to share the underlying usability approaches. but that's not sharing code but concepts10:18
kklimondactp: I agree that it's good we have a few different web servers, a ton of vcs software etc..10:19
kklimondabut imo having two DE and two (ok, even more) competing toolkits isn't the best situation.10:19
ctpqt and gtk are going completely different ways. kde e.g. is portable enough for win32 and qtopia apps but it's heavy weight10:20
umask001thats like asking two artists to paint your picture, then telling one of them to put their brush down after a few minutes.  Nothing can be done that won't offend one side or the other, so they both compete and they both share when it benifits them10:21
kklimondactp: do they? I was always thinking that both qt and glib/gtk has similar goals (and only gtk is a bit behind..)10:22
ctpkklimonda: did you ever see gtk on a mobile device?10:22
ctp;-)10:23
* ctp is away for 10 minutes10:23
kklimondactp: but afair gtk devs were targetting mobile devices too..10:23
cgeHas anyone installed from nightlies recently? I'm wondering if they're decent right now.10:37

Le-Chuck_ITA:)14:08
umask001Le-Chuck_ITA: It seems to.  If you run "env -i sh" it'll start a new shell with no environment variables.  So it's a one-off command14:09
Le-Chuck_ITAyes but i need it to work "inside" the shell script14:11
Le-Chuck_ITAit's karmic's firefox-3.5 startup script14:11
Le-Chuck_ITAif ran from thunderbird it inherits too many "MOZILLA-*" variables and it does not work14:11

Le-Chuck_ITAalsamixer will show you all the controllers in any case14:22
Le-Chuck_ITAyou navigate with arrow keys and use spacebar to toggle buttons14:22
Le-Chuck_ITAdhq: from what I read around, yes you are supposed to have  a surround switch but it is not visible by default in the gnome mixer, one needs to use the mixer preferences to enable it, perhaps it's the same in kde14:23
dhqLe-Chuck_ITA: no surround and the alsa mixer and kmix are the same14:23

Le-Chuck_ITAdhq at worst report a bug, did you google it hard?14:26
Le-Chuck_ITAdhq: did it work in jaunty?14:26
dhqLe-Chuck_ITA: i tried so manythings but no luck14:26
dhqLe-Chuck_ITA:  yes it worked in janunty14:26
dhqLe-Chuck_ITA: thanks for your help though14:33
Le-Chuck_ITAdhq: if it worked in jaunty it's certainly a bug14:33
Le-Chuck_ITAreport it, mark it as regression-potential14:33
dhqi dont know how14:34
Le-Chuck_ITAand try to get it triaged by somebody if you really need it :)14:34
Le-Chuck_ITAdhq: it's easy, but you need to subscribe to launchpad14:34
Le-Chuck_ITAdhq: point is that you need to do it in first person because you'll need to cooperate with developers when they will ask you to gather some debug info14:34
Le-Chuck_ITAdhq: but try14:34
Le-Chuck_ITAmodinfo -p YOUR_CARD_MODULE14:34
Le-Chuck_ITAdhq: which you have to guess from lsmd14:34
Le-Chuck_ITAlsmod14:34
Le-Chuck_ITAdhq: all of the above in a root shell14:35
dhqhmm ok14:35
Le-Chuck_ITAdhq: modinfo -p will show your driver's options14:36
Le-Chuck_ITAmaybe surround has been disabled by default for some reason14:36
Le-Chuck_ITAdhq: in the end you could try the kernel development irc channel14:37
Le-Chuck_ITAfor ubuntu14:37
Le-Chuck_ITAbut I don't remember the name, anybody???14:37
yofelwasn't it #ubuntu-kernel?14:37

Le-Chuck_ITAit is14:38
Le-Chuck_ITAdhq try to ask in that channel, good luck :)14:38

oldude67UnderSampled, what types of problems are you having?14:42
UnderSampledkernel error14:42
oldude67which kernel are you using?14:42
UnderSampledoldude67: default 9.0414:43
oldude67and whats the error?14:43
UnderSampledit breaks as it starts, even from the live cd14:43
UnderSampledWARNING at /build/builddd/linux-2.6.28/kernal/smo.c:333 smo_function_mask+0x1d4/0x1e0()14:43
oldude67well you can try the 9.10 and see if it will help..what type of machine is it going on?14:44
UnderSampledoldude67: desktop with a pentium 414:44
oldude67thats odd what video card are you using?14:44
UnderSamplednvidia geforce 7600 gs14:45
oldude67have you tried the alternative cd?14:46
UnderSampledI have not, but I have tried the internet install from unetbootin, and also just installing 8.10 with an immidiate upgrade to 9.0414:47
UnderSampled8.04 works fine14:48
drs305UnderSampled: FYI, I am running 9.04 with a 7600 GS with no problems.14:49
BluesKajUnderSampled, I have the nvidia geforce 7600GT, which is very similar , so yours should work without a hitch with the nividia-glx-180 driver14:49
drs305UnderSampled: ver 180 hardware driver14:50
oldude67hes getting a kernel panick14:50
oldude67panic ugh cant type today..not awake yet14:50
UnderSampledhow does this have anything to do with the video card? it displays the boot sequence just fine. its the boot itself ;)14:50
BluesKajright ..sorry i should have scrolled up ..looks like a HW problem alright14:53
drs305UnderSampled: I don't think it would, but I provided the info since it was mentioned.14:53
oldude67so far 9.10 isnt to bad just minor issues14:53
UnderSampledif it help any, I have http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157106 as my mother board14:54
BluesKajUnderSampled, hmmm maybe upgrade to 8.10 first then to 9.0414:55
oldude67UnderSampled, you went from 8.04 straight to 9.04?14:55
UnderSampledno, it was 8.1014:55
UnderSampledwell, my statement was true (8.04 works fine), but misleading. 8.10 works fine14:56
UnderSampledyes, it was a mistake14:56
oldude67well you could always try the 9.10 and see if it gives you the kernel panic as well.14:58
BluesKajUnderSampled, did you try an internet upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04. Use apt or aptitude : sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude dist-upgrade15:02
UnderSampledBluesKaj how would this be different?15:10
UnderSampledBluesKaj: yes, I used the official updater15:11
UnderSampledBluesKaj: however, both the live cd and the internet installer failed15:11
UnderSampled(in the same way)15:11
BluesKajwow15:12
BluesKajUnderSampled, dunno what to tell , it sound serious ...we need some heavyweights in here for help on this one15:13
BluesKaj!help15:15
ubottuPlease don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-)15:15
BluesKajoops :)15:15
eagles0513875hehe BluesKaj15:16
eagles0513875BluesKaj: you try out grub2 on karmic yet15:16
eagles0513875UnderSampled: have you tried upgrading from jaunty to karmic15:16
BluesKajwell eagles0513875 , any suggestions ?15:16
eagles0513875for me what i did to get karmic installed was upgrade from jaunty and it worked15:16
UnderSampledeagles0513875: I wouldn't be able to. it doesn't get past boot15:16
BluesKajyeah, i'm on grub2 , eagles051387515:16
eagles0513875strange mine seems to be able to get booting BluesKaj15:17
eagles0513875UnderSampled: O_O15:17
BluesKajmethinks a HW problem15:17
PiciNo, its a kernel issue. The kernel panics on boot.15:17
UnderSampledits a kernal panic due to hw incompatibility. these are fresh installs15:18
BluesKajPici, why tho, what's causing the prob if there's no kernel/HW conflict15:18
PiciBluesKaj: A 'HW problem' to me is a hardware defect.15:19
eagles0513875Pici: would the alternate installer have the same issue15:19
Picieagles0513875: It probably would, but it wouldn't hurt to try.15:20
BluesKajto me it's like UnderSampled says , incompatibility15:20
eagles0513875UnderSampled: give the alternate install a shot15:20
eagles0513875BluesKaj: first time you ran grub 2 did it take a while to boot15:20
BluesKajhmm, don't recall eagles051387515:20
eagles0513875took a while guessing finding stuff on my hdd but it eventually booted15:21
eagles0513875things are fine now like nothing happened15:21
BluesKajeagles0513875, did you do , sudo update-grub ?15:28
eagles0513875ya i did it once i booted by default to run level 1 for some reason after booting into init 1 it seems to default constantly to init 115:29
SKBhello15:44
eagles0513875hey SKB15:44
UnderSampledyou guys can chew on this http://yfrog.com/5fdumpij15:46
eagles0513875?15:50
eagles0513875UnderSampled: what is15:50
BluesKajUnderSampled, not me :)15:51
UnderSampledits a picture of my kernel panic15:52
* BluesKaj waits for Pici or some other more knowledgeable ppl to analyse that message15:53
eagles0513875the kernel version currently in karmic is 2.6.31 which is normally a dev kernel15:54
eagles0513875UnderSampled: that doesnt look like a kernel panic15:55
eagles0513875UnderSampled: you might also want to try in ubuntu-kernel regard to ur issue they might be able to help ya better since its a kernel issue which u seem to be having15:56
ryanncan anyone help troubleshoot this please?  http://pastebin.com/d6169d6c916:20
ryannit's not so much that i want that package, it's that this error appears regardless of the packages i upgrade or install via apt.16:21
yofelryann: does the same happen when running 'dpkg --configure -a' ?16:22
ryannyofel, yes.  http://pastebin.com/d7e66050d16:23

yofelryann: what does 'sudo /var/lib/dpkg/info/synaptic.postinst' give you?16:27
ryannjust returns a new line16:28

ryanndpkg: error processing synaptic (--configure):16:30
ryann subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 13916:30
yofelryann: purge it with 'dpkg -P synaptic' then reinstall it with apt16:31
ryannhttp://pastebin.com/d7616629716:32
BluesKajyofel, right , din't think of that ...should work16:32
mvo139 means segfault - could you enable apport to check if that catches what is crashing?16:32
BluesKajmvo, dmesg | tail ?16:35
yofellooking at the post* scripts it should be either scrollkeeper-update or update-menus16:35
mvoBluesKaj: yeah, that works as well :) apport gives the benefit of a crashfile though16:36
BluesKajok , not real familiar with apport , how does one use it ? just apport in the konsole ?16:37
ryannunfamiliar with apport, i've pasted the last few scroll-keeper lines from dmesg here http://pastebin.com/df0a565116:37
yofelBluesKaj: enable it in /etc/default/apport and it should catch crashes by itself ;)16:37
BluesKajyofel, thanks :)16:38
BluesKajplasma keeps crashing here and I'm getting tired of it16:39
yofelryann: enable apport in /etc/default/apport and then run '/etc/init.d/apport start' and then run dpkg again16:40
ryanni was just about to ask how to start apport16:40
ryanndpkg --configure -a runs without any output16:42
ryannapt-get install synaptic returns Segmentation fault (core dumped)16:42
BluesKajyofel, will the enable stay as default in init.d/apport or do i have to link it to runlevels ?16:43
yofelBluesKaj: once it's enabled in /etc/default/apport it will stay enabled, S20apport is already in the default runlevel ;)16:44
BluesKajyofel, cool :)16:44
yofelBluesKaj: afaik apport will be enabled by default once alpha3 is out16:45
ryannsame issues with aptitude http://pastebin.com/d780b368a16:45
yofelryann: do you have anything in /var/crash ?16:45
ryannyes, yes i do16:47
yofelryann: didn't apport come up?16:47
ryann212K 2009-07-14 11:10 update-manager.0.crash and there is another from today for evolution-docu..-en16:48
ryannno front-end appeared after the seg fault, if that's what you're asking16:48
yofelryann: run '/usr/share/apport/apport-gtk -c <crashfile>'16:49
ryannfantastic, apport-gtk is not installed16:52
yofelo.O16:53
ryannand it won't install since apt is crashing over this evolution crap16:53
yofelok, then install apport, but first try to reinstall 'rarian-compat'16:53

BluesKajit doesn't help ryann tho16:56
gnomefreakBluesKaj: it will once we figure out why16:59
UnderSampledI tried the alternate install, but it went blanck with the blinking caps/scroll lock lights16:59
yofelryann: did you upgrade from jaunty since you had scrollkeeper installed? It doesn't exist in karmic anymore16:59
gnomefreakryann: sudo apt-get -f install   no package name, just as i typed it17:00
gnomefreakryann: see if it fixes evo doc problem17:00
yofelgnomefreak: the evo doc problem comes from scrollkeeper-update segfaulting17:01

ryannanyone know anything about plasma-widget-network-manager?!.. version 0.1~svn951801-1 works, but anything newer (from the repositories) fails to work with wpa.  there was a bug about this, which i thought was resolved.17:47
BluesKaj!info wicd | ryann17:49
ubotturyann: wicd (source: wicd): wired and wireless network manager. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.6.1-3 (karmic), package size 415 kB, installed size 2484 kB17:49
gnomefreakryann: its known at least i hear it from eagles051387517:49
gnomefreaks/known/broken17:50
eagles0513875ryann: i reported a bug it seems to have resurfaced again but wicd and gnome network manager work fine with wpa connections17:50
eagles0513875not sure what is being done about it17:50
yofelBluesKaj: last time I tried wicd here on gnome it didn't set andy DNS :(17:50
yofels/andy/any17:50
BluesKajryann, the widget-network-manager is flaky and unstable . WPA is np on wicd17:51
eagles0513875yofel: you have to sent it in regards to dns or u can set dns in the resolv.conf17:52
eagles0513875im out for now17:52
gnomefreakeagles0513875: have fun17:52
yofeleagles0513875: yeah, but NM does that over dhcp17:52
yofelwicd not it seems17:52
eagles0513875installing wicd removes nm and the widget17:53
eagles0513875if im not mistaken17:53
yofeleagles0513875: it removes them17:53
BluesKajwicd is a network manager17:53
eagles0513875yofel: under preferences you can set the ip of the dns servers17:53
yofeleagles0513875: that would defy the purpose of dhcp...17:54
eagles0513875ahhhhh wait i misunderstood17:54
eagles0513875yofel: im using dhcp for wifi and it works just fine here17:54
yofelwith wicd /etc/resolv.conf is empty here :/17:54
yofelhm, well, then I guess I'll get my LAN cable and try wicd again :P17:55
eagles0513875yofel: BluesKaj is wicd expert lol17:56
BluesKajeagles0513875, not an expert , it just works fore me both on wifi and ethernet17:57
eagles0513875ethernet no issues with the plasma widget17:57
eagles0513875only wifi17:57
BluesKajwell, i've seen som,e probs with ethernet on widget17:58
eagles0513875interesting17:58
eagles0513875im out17:58
BluesKajwicd is much better on laptop wifi cards than the widget , more sensitive and stable17:59
BluesKajmy dumb neighbour, across the street is running an unsecured network ...I told him about it but he still hasn't done anything about it and I can piggyback on his network from my basement music room18:01
yofelBluesKaj: what do I need to tell wicd to set a DNS server over dhcp?18:02
yofelmy /etc/resolv.conf is empty18:03
yofelthe only dhcp client that's available in the settings dialog is dhclient18:03
BluesKajyofel, dunno i don't run a dns server...I'm just using all the automatic settings18:05
yofeland why am I the only one in my neighbourhood that uses WPA o.O18:06
BluesKajwep and unsecured ?18:07
yofelwell, at least all wep18:07
yofelnot that I count that as secured18:07
BluesKajwell, it's bit better than unsecured18:07
BluesKajmaybe 1minute better18:07
yofelhehe18:07
yofeland does Alt+F2 still work for anybody with gnome+compiz ?18:11
BluesKajyofel, i just right click on a space on the desktop and choose the runbox from there18:13
yofeldoh, could have thought of that myself -.-18:14
BluesKajyofel, btw my /etc/resolve.conf has some info in it , domain gateway , search gateway and nameserver18:14
yofelhm, maybe I should restart... It still says that it was generated my networkmanager in there18:15

ryanndo you use kde4 bk?18:41
BluesKajthe old knetworkmanager was more difficult to setup with ndiswarapper etc , but once done it was pretty stable18:42

MrSteinHi! Since I don't do much else than beta test 9.04, does it make sense to just install 9.10 and report issues there ? (for example suspend and hibernate do not work for me in 9.04)20:20
reto`MrStein: beta test 9.04?20:21
MrSteinwell, "final test"20:21
MrSteinThat is : not doing anything else but reporting bugs20:21
reto`MrStein: actually it might be better to test 9.10 and report bugs there20:21
MrSteinI thought so20:22
MrSteindo alpha update from one to next ? Over the regular update manager ?20:22
MrSteinalpha=alpha releases20:22
reto`I think that might have a better impact on the next ubuntu to get your bugs fixed :)20:22
reto`MrStein: yeah... you can update to the alpha through the update manager and updates you'll get like that too20:23
reto`MrStein: see here > http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/karmic/alpha220:25
reto`actually you'll get regular updates it's not tied to a certain "alpha"20:28

billybigrigand i can tab complete the kernel version, module, and mod version21:30
yofelhm wait, that sounds familiar, now what was the reason for that again...21:31
Sarvatthmm that sounds like the problem with kernel-package 11.015 that i had to upgrade to 11.017 to fix21:34
billybigrigSarvatt: got my compile time down to 42 min :P21:35
billybigrigbut now i cant use it :P21:35
Sarvatti think it has something to do with your kernel versioning21:35
yofelhm, iirc when I compiled a kernel once I put it in some odd foldername in /usr/src that had nothing to do with the version number, and I think that's when I got that21:37
yofelbut that was quite a while ago so I don't remember it clearly21:38
Sarvattwhy dont you try calling it billybigrigger0714 or something instead of adding the extra dashes and dots to the different versions?21:39
billybigrignot dots21:40
billybigrigjust billybigrigger-07-1421:40
billybigrigok i could do that i guess21:40
Sarvatt(you had dots in a previous one is why i said that)21:42
billybigrigoh ya21:43
billybigrigok ill try it out21:43
MrStein1memtest86 does not react to ESC, is that known ? the other keys (c,space, numbers) work.21:44

BUGabundoext2 or ext421:56
billybigrigext421:56
BUGabundotaking pictures of the setup too, on my new Revoltec case21:56
yofelwhat reason is there to use ext2?21:56
BUGabundohey akgraner21:56
BUGabundoits just a disk to use externally for LOTS of backups21:56
BUGabundoso ext2 _should be_ as fast as ext421:57
BUGabundojust not sure I need the jornaling to keep my data safe21:57
Sarvattthat was ages ago wasnt it yofel?21:57
BUGabundoalso, not sure the win driver for ext works with ext421:57
yofelBUGabundo: use journal-less ext4 if you have kernel >=2.6.2921:57
BUGabundoif not, I won't access it on  the wind PC21:57
BUGabundoyofel: _3121:57
billybigrigBUGabundo: i didn't take you for the windows type of guy21:58
billybigrig:(21:58

syn-ackBUGabundo: than?22:22
* yofel wants btrfs with transparent compression :/22:22
BUGabundosyn-ack: then what?22:22
syn-ackBUGabundo: Faster than what at creating volumes?22:22
BUGabundothen I'll need to rsync /etc /home exclude .crypt (on encfs22:23
BUGabundosyn-ack: xfs is much faster then ext22:23
yofelwell, ext[234] do take ages to write those inode tables...22:23
syn-ackAha.22:23
syn-ackBUGabundo: I used to use XFS exclusivly till ext4 came along and I thought I'd give it a try22:23
Sarvattoh man, you use dm-crypt too?! you just like using everything possible just because its there to break things dont you BUGabundo? :D22:24
yofelwell, now that e4defrag seems to get usable I prefer it over XFS22:24
SwedeMikeI prefer tried and tested filesystems... like xfs.22:25
BUGabundoyreah me too22:26
BUGabundothis laptop is / ext3 10GBs22:26
BUGabundoand home on XFS22:26
BUGabundono prob on xfs_check 300GiBs ULTRA FAST22:26
BUGabundoSarvatt: nope. I use encfs! been using it since gutsy22:26
BUGabundothen it broke and I (temporarly) lost  access to all my data22:26
BUGabundohad to boot old livecd to decrypt and encrypt on new format :(22:26
BUGabundoSwedeMike: xfs suffers from most probs ext4 suffers22:26
BUGabundoon what it depends on the time to write to disk22:26
BUGabundoeven worse, since ext4 is beeing activly patched and xfs only gets _some_ backports latter on22:27
SwedeMikeat least the code has long time exposure to real life.22:27
BUGabundoI wonder if colin did any progress on swap on file22:27
BUGabundoI'll be testing it till the end of the devel cycle22:27
BUGabundoso I HOPE it works, or I'm leaft without swap22:28
BUGabundolet me go nag him22:28
MrSteinThe timezone selection in installer is still scheisse. Worth reporting ? I believe this was reported 1 or 2 releases ago.... :-(22:30
Sarvatti've been using a swap file since jaunty with no problems (but i have no use for hibernation)22:30
BUGabundoSarvatt: but I do22:30
BUGabundoMrStein: yeah I did a VB install today with daily, and my time zone was 1h ahead :(22:31
syn-ackheh22:31
syn-ackI barely have a swap22:31
BUGabundoI have 8GiBs of it22:32
syn-ackOn a notebook?22:32
BUGabundo4G of RAM22:33
BUGabundoso 2x that22:33
yofelwhy that?22:34
billybigrigthe 2x ram for swap is not needed anymore BUGabundo22:34
syn-ackthats the golden rule22:34
billybigrigthat's old school, where systems only had 512mb - 1gb of ram22:34
BUGabundoBUAAA22:34
syn-ackyeah?22:34
billybigrig8 gb of swap is wayyyyy tooo much :P22:34
yofelI have 4GiB RAM on my notebook too with 4,5GiB swap for when I use hibernate sometimes22:34
yofelbut more is just waste of disk space22:34
syn-ackleave BUGabundo alone, he's hardcore. :p22:35
BUGabundocjwaton says he has no idea on how swap on file is right now or if it works :((22:35
BUGabundobillybigrig care to let me know how to put 4G or FULL RAM into disk?22:35
syn-ackthe only reason I only have 100 megs instead of 1 gig is that I forgot a zero. :p22:35
BUGabundotry to use my email client22:35

Q-FUNKnah, but I've been quite busy with 'ubuntu-bug'23:24
BUGabundoyeah I would love to have the time for it23:24
Q-FUNKhere, it's just that I have one host running karmic, mostly because I need to anticipate for possible showstoppers that would break support for Geode-based hardware23:26
BUGabundoI know23:26
BUGabundothat's a good thing23:26
BUGabundoif *everyone* tested their prob *early* many would be in good state on release23:26
BUGabundoor not..... we would be overworked23:27
Q-FUNKI just happen to catch unreleated issues whenever 'upgrade-system' drags in broken packages, at which point I go 'ubuntu-bug' trigger happy. ;)23:27
Q-FUNKtesting early is easy enough.  the difficulty is testing, only to find that whatever package you reported against has been rebased with a newer release.  then, often, people are simply asked to try the new one, instead of anyone bothering with the initial bug report.23:29
MrSteinalpha2 does not boot on my PC, thanks good, otherwise I would be testing it til the morning (it is midnight here) :-)23:33
