tanathmy computer won't boot now >.<04:52
tanathdoesn't recognize uuid04:52
tanathneed help04:52
DanaGhmm, does it boot with root=/dev/sda# format?04:53
DanaGI'm having the same sorts of won't-recognize-uuid issues.04:53
tanathi think so04:56
tanathi ran env from recovery prompt, and there was no value for rootdelay, which was mentioned04:57
tanathnot sure what to set that to, and i doubt it'd fix it04:57
tanathi'm on live disc now04:57
DanaGI can't even GET a recovery prompt.05:00
DanaGThat is, if I EFI boot.05:00
tanathEFI?05:00
DanaGI'm trying to use grub-efi, and for some reason, the kernel refuses to load the initramfs.05:00
tanathhm05:00
DanaGIt says "no ramdisk image found at 0"05:01
DanaGor something like that.05:01
tanathhm, not mine05:02
tanathsaid, timed out waiting for root device & couldn't find it or something05:02
tanathdrops to initramfs prompt or whatever05:03

tanathhow do i get net connectivity in a chroot?05:45
Teknomorning06:13
tanathhow can i set the uuid for a partition (from in chroot)?06:25
tanath'ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid' shows sda1's uuid, but when booting off the drive it doesn't know what the uuid is06:26
tanathand so won't boot now06:26
DanaGhmm, might it  be a udev or initramfs issue?06:27
DanaGOr does the uuid it can't find... not match the UUID of the partition?06:27
tanathi got the notion it might be udev before06:27
Jeruvyyou don't as a rule, it's set for you.  you could edit your menu.lst to the appropriate bootable disk if there were changes...?06:27
tanathi dunno what happened. an update borked my system06:28
DanaGDid package configuration get interrupted?06:28
tanathdon't think so06:28
tanaththere was one or two packages that had an error, but i fixed them immediately06:29
tanathon upgrading06:29
tanathbut it was a more recent update. i could boot at first, just not to the .30+ kernels06:30
tanathcould still boot to the .28 kernels. now can't boot at all06:30
tanathwas gonna try playing in chroot, but net isn't working06:31
tanathfrom in chroot06:31
DanaGoh yeah, did you bind-mount /proc and /sys and /dev into it?06:31
tanathran sudo mount -o bind /proc /var/chroot/proc according to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicChroot06:32
tanathwell, /var/chroot is wrong path though06:32
tanathbut did that06:32
DanaGugh, blurry bubbles.06:33
DanaGoh yeah, and copy /etc/resolv.conf from the livecd.06:33
tanathi'm chrooted to my HD from live disc06:33
tanathhm?06:33
tanathi'm chrooted to my HD, which is already set up to work fine (if it would boot)...06:34
tanathand i've done it before, but don't recall how06:34
tanaththe existing /etc/resolv.conf may be different, but if so it prolly should be06:34
DanaGIt's automatically generated, in most cases.06:36
Sarvatttanath: sudo dumpe2fs /dev/sdawhatever06:36
tanathyeah, but i may have tweaked it at some point in the past06:36
tanathSarvatt: in or out of chroot?06:36
Sarvattdoesnt matter06:36
tanathSarvatt: woah. that gave the same uuid as 'ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid' and then after a pause started spewing tons of output06:37
tanathSarvatt: lots of stuff about free blocks & inodes06:38
tanathi cancelled it 'cause i was trying to read something06:38
tanathand couldn't see what it was doing06:38
Sarvattadd | grep UUID then06:38
tanathshould i let it run through?06:38
Sarvattnope06:39
Sarvattits just telling you the info on the paritition06:39
tanath'ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid' shows the same uuid06:39
tanathmm06:39
tanathaha06:40
tanathmy fstab has the wrong uuid06:40
DanaGinteresting:06:40
Sarvattdid you upgrade from ext3 to ext4 or something?06:40
DanaG"Please insert a disk that is not copy protected.06:41
DanaGSuch a disk cannot be copied without the proper plugins."06:41
DanaGUmm... so which one is it that can't be copied?06:41
DanaG06:41
tanathSarvatt: nope06:41
tanath# Entry for /dev/sda1 :06:41
tanathUUID=e93bfde6-f2bf-493f-bd21-fde894d1e83c / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro,data=writeback,noatime 0 006:41
tanathls ... uuid says different one06:42
tanathany reason not to edit?06:42
tanathi'd like to know how it happened06:42
tanaththere was a command i ran when booted to HD that said ambivalent result for uuid06:43
tanaththis could be why06:43
DanaGlibdvdnav: Suspected RCE Region Protection!!!06:44
* tanath sighs07:06
tanathi fixed my uuid in fstab, but it still tries to boot to the wrong one07:06
tanathwhere else might i need to fix my uuid?07:08
tanathwhy would it try to boot to a nonexistent uuid?07:13
tanatho.O 'aptitude update' gave 'E: Method http has died unexpectedly!'07:40
tanath97% [Working]FATAL -> Could not set non-blocking flag Bad file descriptor07:41
tanathnvm, fixed it07:44

gnomefreakhint no == bad answer13:51
Moultwhen you say break your system13:52
Moultdo you muck up beyond repair the OS and software side13:53
Moultor just muck up the software and such on the system, not so badly (eg: at least bootloader still surviving)13:53
Moultor do you mean the hardware could get fried too :P13:53
gnomefreakMoult: you can break bootloader as well since it is just software13:53
eagles0513875its not really breaking hardware its moer the bootloader and software13:54
gnomefreakgrub2 transition has been ok but that does not make it safe by any menas13:54
Moultright i'm going to try put karmic on my comp since no other distro has been able to get onlne13:54
eagles0513875i have tried out grub2 package thats out and worked fine for me cept first boot took some time13:54
Moultturns out i need a >=2.6.30 kernel13:54

iddoalpha3 comes out today? when exactly?13:55
gnomefreakbe careful with that workd "need"13:55
eagles0513875exactly gnomefreak13:55
gnomefreakiddo: when it is ready. once everything is ready it will be releasd ther eis no time table13:55
iddois it supposed to be today?13:56
gnomefreakeagles0513875: off hand no, i havent used ssh in a long time like sunce brazzy13:56
eagles0513875wow13:56
gnomefreakiddo: today in UTC yes should be but depends on what bugs they find that need to be fixed13:56
eagles0513875just too lazy to stay going up and down to work on that machine13:56
iddook cool13:57
gnomefreakiddo: normally within a day or 2 on either end of date13:57
Moultis the installation of karmic at the moment graphical or text?13:57
gnomefreakMoult: you can use either13:57
gnomefreaki have both ISOs13:57
Moulthmm i didn't find an alpha2 download but i did find alpha3, is this correct? http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/karmic/alpha-3/13:58
gnomefreakok fixed that lost alot of emails but its fixed :)13:58
gnomefreakMoult: yes or use daily images13:58
iddohmm so alpha3 is already out ?!13:59
gnomefreakiddo: if you are running it yes14:01
BluesKajiddo, supposedly sometime today14:01
iddoi dont understand14:01
eagles0513875or if ur already running karmic you probably have the updated packages for it no gnomefreak14:01
gnomefreakiddo: alphas and such do nto get a "final release" until its a final release of system14:01
iddoi want to install it from scratch14:01
eagles0513875ahhhh BluesKaj appears lol not to be confused with bluekuja lol14:01
gnomefreakthan use the iso pick one once you update to latest packages you are in alpha 314:02
eagles0513875this sounds way to tempting to reinstall14:02
DrHalan1isn't alpha 3 out yet?14:02
eagles0513875haha DrHalan1 just check the site14:03
DrHalan1what site?14:03
Moultare you all on karmic?14:03
gnomefreakok people define out yet. alphas do not get released in the way you are thinking of it14:03

eagles0513875might give it a go and reinstall im wondering if my openssh issue is related to upgrading from jaunty to karmic14:04
DrHalan1i cannot upgrade my laptop anymore because the package mozialla-plugin-gnash is broken and can'T be removed14:04
alteregoawhy?14:04

iddobut this link is daily? http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/karmic/alpha-3/14:06
eagles0513875iddo: also any packages that make it to the daily builds get pushed out as updates14:06
alteregoai got a problem with the grub2 splashscreens14:06
gnomefreakalteregoa: thats good since IIRC it doesnt support splashs yet14:06
DrHalan1how can i force remove a package (the removal script is broken)14:07
alteregoai installed the splash screens and edited a file cause the paths are wrong14:07
gnomefreakDrHalan1: you would have to look at the error read the file that has a problem wnad than try. or file a bug14:07
iddohmm i didnt even notice that this link is kubuntu14:07
alteregoai put a splash screen into my notebook bios with the same resolution on grub14:08
eagles0513875iddo: thing is there is no link on the main kubuntu page regarding alpha 3 yet14:09
iddohmm ubuntu (not kubuntu) also has only alpha3 link: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/9.10/alpha-3/14:10
iddoso think alpha3 iso is updated daily ?14:10
DrHalan1gnomefreak: it's update-alternatives or so. I dunno what to do abotu that14:10
iddoi meant so this14:10
iddoor this alpha3 iso will stay the same until alpha4 ?14:12
gnomefreakDrHalan1: im going to be in and out. if you dont know what you are doing than i suggest file a bug. if you go into that folder you should find the gnash file there and read the error and see if you can find the broken part but i dont see the full error and time is not allowing me to help too much today14:12
gnomefreakiddo: daily == updated daily14:12
drs305alteregoa: Do you have any questions about how to put the splash image into Grub2?14:13
iddoyeah i'm asking if it's daily14:13

PiciBut without the release notes/announcement you may run into issues that may or may not be known.14:35
BluesKajDrHalan1, here is some advice about broken packages : http://www.linux.com/archive/feature/4891014:36
iddobut the date of http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/9.10/alpha-3/karmic-desktop-i386.iso is 22-Jul-2009 17:49  hmmmm?14:36
gnomefreaksymantics ;) honestly a3 with or without release notes you can run into problems with installer/packages/updates ect...14:36
gnomefreakiddo: that was yesterday14:36
gnomefreakhint its still a314:36
gnomefreakinstall it from that than do your updates OR use daily image than do updates14:37
iddoso alpha3 was made available yesterday?14:37
gnomefreakiddo: i dont think you are getting this. a3 was made avilabe right after a2 was posted from a2 ->now have been updates14:38
gnomefreakthats all that is. there is no rocket science behind it14:38
iddoi'm asking whether the file http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/9.10/alpha-3/karmic-desktop-i386.iso is gonna stay the same or be updated, whats the answer to this question?14:39
gnomefreakiddo: daily iso was a3 the day after a2 was posted so it was avilable than14:39
gnomefreakiddo: i have said and will say again unless major breakage it will stay the same14:40
gnomefreakthat one question has been answered by me a few time and a few others a few time14:40
gnomefreaks14:40
iddook but u also said that alpha3 will be made available when it's ready later today or tomorrow14:41
gnomefreakiddo: today/tomorrw is not the same for everyone14:42
gnomefreakiddo: i know they are still spinning images and the emails have nto been sent yet14:42
gnomefreaki use rxync to update my isos 2 times a week or so14:43
gnomefreakso i only have to download once14:43
charlie-tcaAlso, the topic in this channel is updated when the alpha release is changed14:43
iddoso why wasnt the topic updated?14:43
gnomefreakthat happens when we get devel list email14:43
Picibecause the release announcement hasn't been made.14:43
charlie-tcabecause alpha3 is not officially released yet14:44
iddobut the actual iso is available since yesterday ?14:44
* gnomefreak thinks if this has confused you so much that maybe installing an alpha release maybe not best thing for you14:44
Moultheh14:44
gnomefreakiddo: download or dont but our answers will not change14:44
iddoi downloaded it14:45
gnomefreakiddo: good than lets drop it14:45
iddoin it there's file README.diskdefines14:45
iddoit says #define DISKNAME  Ubuntu 9.10 "Karmic Koala" - Alpha i38614:45
iddoi dont see any other info14:46
gnomefreakiddo: if you are looking for things to be wrong than i suggest you stop. either use it or dont14:46

iddook cool, im gonna try to install it now14:50
Dimitreehello :) can i ask about Vdpau in Karmic ? Will it be used ? Is it comming ? xine-vdpau ?14:52
=== Le-Chuck_ITA1 is now known as Le-Chuck_ITA
BluesKajDimitree, check your package manager to locate vdpau driver support by your graphics card14:59
Oli``Dimitree: it's in jaunty if you have a new enough nvidia driver14:59
Dimitreexine-vdpau is not i think ?15:00
BluesKajthe 7 series and up nvidia supports it15:00
Dimitreewhen i search for vdpau in synaptic it only shows the nvidia-vdpau dev15:00
BluesKajDimitree, mostly mplayer right now15:00
Oli``xine, maybe not but it's in mplayer15:00
DimitreeKarmic mplayer uses vdpau now ?15:01
Oli``it can, go through the settings in gmplayer15:01
Dimitreeawesome :) <---updates to karmic15:01
Oli``again, provided you have a new nvidia driver... the default nvidia driver is still quite old15:01
Oli``what, wait15:01
=== ChanServ changed the topic of #ubuntu+1 to: Welcome to the Ubuntu Karmic Koala (9.10) discussion channel | Karmic is NOT RELEASED and may break your system | Schedule https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KarmicReleaseSchedule | Please join #ubuntu for all other support questions | Alpha 3 Released: www.ubuntu.com/testing/karmic/alpha3 | Paper Cuts Round 1: tinyurl.com/mhs2qb
Oli``you can do all that in jaunty15:01
Dimitreehmm15:01
Oli``just install the beta nvidia driver... you'd have to do that in karmic anyway15:02
Dimitreebut 180 supports vdpau ?!15:02
Dimitreewhich beta driver are you talking about Oli``  ?15:03
Oli``sorry yes, I'm talking out my hat (my media center has an ION graphics chipset that needed the latest drivers), ignore me15:03
Dimitreeanyway congrats on Alpha 3 :)15:03
yofelDimitree: use https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-updates for a never nvidia driver in jaunty15:03
Oli``but in gmplayer's options, there should be an option for selecting vdpau as the video driver15:03
BluesKajDimitree, look in synaptic for nvidia-180-libvdpau-dev15:04
DimitreeBluesKaj, yes ihave that installed already15:04
Dimitreemy probblem is that i need xine-vdpau which will work with Kaffeine for my DVB-S2 card for Satellite HD channels15:04
Dimitreeso it's complicated :)15:04
Oli``compile it yourself?15:05
Dimitreei tryed compiling xine-vdpau from their repos but then i have two xine installations and Kaffeine get's confused which one to use15:05
Oli``remove the other =)15:05
Dimitreeso i was wondering if in Karmic xine-vdpau will work :)15:05
BluesKajDimitree, I haven't tried any HD content on my pc so I can't advise about whether it works on Karmic or not15:05
Dimitreealso xine-vdpau need the latest ffmpeg and so on :/15:05
DimitreeOli``, the last time i removed xine with synaptic it removed EVERYTHING lol :D15:06
gnomefreakxine isw optional it shouldnt remove myuch except xine libs and such15:06
DimitreeBluesKaj, so Karmic is not paying much attention to HD content yet ?15:06
Dimitreegnomefreak, well it removed everything, gnome sessions, everything ... i was litteraly watching the OS destroy itself haha15:07
Dimitreewell i hope Karmic will pay more attention to HD content, i mean HD is old news in windows and on Linux it's nto even working out of the box yet which is sad i think :)15:09
DrHalan1Dimitree: are you on 64bit?15:10
Dimitreeno but my PC is capable15:10
gnomefreakDrHalan1: you should beable to remove /var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/mozilla-plugin-gnash15:10
gnomefreakDrHalan1: that might fix it but remember to use sudo rm to do it15:10
DrHalan1its just that w64codecs is missing some features i think15:11
DrHalan1compared to w32codecs15:11
DrHalan1i have troubles with sounds and hd15:11
Dimitreeany idea if kubuntu is more HD friendly ?15:12
gnomefreaki doubt it15:14
gnomefreaki would think its more of a video/drivers than system15:15
Dimitreei was wondering which alpha 3 to test thats all :)15:17

kit_Pici: ah, i didn't read the announcement. temporarily added the karmic repos to jaunty to install some new packages, kernel, e2fsprogs, deluge, clamav and when i was looking through the available packages decided it might be safer to just do the dist upgrade. it's a new install anyway and i've got jaunty on another partition so am just being experimental.16:47

iddoactually its not partition, its the two separate flash harddisks of eee90116:57
yofelom26er: yes :)16:57
Dimitreemvo no problems now, but i guess that's because i'm starting app-instal from terminal with sudo, meaning that it's already running with root, but if i run it the normal way, it simply reports that there was a problem installing the application after authentication, synaptic also doesn't run after authentication. trying to install stuff from .deb files also doesn't work so any idea whys that ? :)16:57
iddoi think grub installed itself to the 2nd harddisk now, i had to swap them in bios16:57
Dimitreemvo ok that's weird i just tryed to install from .deb file and it worked laso :/16:58
yofelDimitree: any output when running 'gksu synaptic' from a terminal?16:58

Dimitreeyofel, all updates are installed, i also switched to the main server to see if anything is missing on the mirror but it says that system is up to date17:26
Dimitreeyofel, what information i should include in such a report ? i mean just saying "it doesn't work" wouldn't be much helpful ?17:27
yofelDimitree: enable apport in /etc/default/apport. Then run 'sudo /etc/init.d/apport start' or reboot. Then crash gksu again and apport should come up17:28
Dimitreeyofel, i already reported one bug but it was saying that Nautilus crashed, is it possible that this is the one ?17:29
ryanakcaIs anybody else experiencing a segfault with sudo? http://pastebin.ca/150449517:29

drs305Here is a thread I made on Grub 2: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=119527519:41
drs305And here is the thread billybigrigger created: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub219:41
drs305om26er: The equivalent of menu.lst is /boot/grub/grub.cfg but unlike menu.lst it is not meant to be edited. The links explain it.19:42
om26eri got this error while saving grub.cfg19:51
om26erYou are trying to save the file on a read-only disk. Please check that you typed the location correctly and try again19:51
drs305The grub.cfg file is read-only by design. The correct way to change it's contents is to edit the files in /etc/grub.d and then run update-grub.19:53
drs305You can edit it if you want but will have to make it writable. One of the first lines in the file is something to he effect of "Do not edit this file". Of course you can, but it's not designed that way.19:55

AnAnt_Hello, how does karmic support PPA in it's software properties ?22:18
ikoniaAnAnt_: same way as every other release22:19
hggdhBUGabundo, what?22:20
AnAnt_I heard that there is some support for PPA somehow22:20
hggdhah. Hey BUGabundo :-)22:20
BUGabundohey hggdh, tudo bom amigo?22:20
hggdhtudo bem, la nave va22:20
ikoniaAnAnt_: ppa is supported on any release22:20
BUGabundohey ikonia!!! [[]]22:20
ikoniahello22:20
AnAnt_hang on22:21
BUGabundoAnAnt_: what you may have heard is about apt-url changes! right?22:21
AnAnt_I meant that, it would ease adding of PPA repos22:21
ikoniaAnAnt_: no more/less than any other release22:21
AnAnt_BUGabundo: maybe, what's that ?22:21
ikoniaI think there are PPA options in the software sources menu22:21
ikoniaAnAnt_: something I would advise against using22:21
ikoniaAnAnt_: it will allow you to apt-get automatically from webpages, but i wouldn't trust that sort of automated downloading22:22
AnAnt_ikonia: I don't see PPA options in software sources menu22:22
ikoniaAnAnt_: it may not be there yet22:22
BUGabundoikonia: AnAnt_ also _finally_ LP fixed auto version detection.22:22
BUGabundomaking it less prone to using the wrong version22:22
BUGabundoits nice to is from Debian, asking to choose a _supported_ one eheh22:23
AnAnt_BUGabundo: I don't understand you22:23
BUGabundono one does22:24
BUGabundodon't bother :p22:24
ikoniaAnAnt_: research apt-url22:25
ikoniaAnAnt_: but my personal opinion is to not use tools like that, but that's only a personal opinion22:25
BUGabundoI'm still waiting where it will lead22:26
BUGabundoif indeed we end up with a *very* restriced version, then its now use22:27
AnAnt_ikonia: I don't think it's apt-url what I'm looking for22:29
AnAnt_Micheal Vogt (mvo) was working on a feature to ease adding PPA to software sources (the GUI thing)22:29
AnAnt_and to make it automatically pull the GPG key of the PPA repo22:29
ikoniaAnAnt_: how hard is it to edit a text file ?22:30
AnAnt_ikonia: for me or for other users ?22:30
ikoniain general22:30
BUGabundoikonia: very hard22:31
yofelikonia: the ppa support in software-sources22:31
ikoniado you think that if someone can't edit a text file they should be using development/personal/unsupported versions of software22:31
BUGabundoalias addkey='sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com'22:31
BUGabundoI use this to make it easier :)22:31
yofelikonia: ... *was* indeed improved22:31
ikoniaBUGabundo: that would be something very useful to add to the default bash profile22:31
AnAnt_ikonia: sometimes, yes22:31
ikoniaI %101 disagree22:32
BUGabundoikonia: and very dangerouse22:32
AnAnt_yofel: ?22:32
BUGabundoit forces the key without validation22:32
yofelerrr... add-apt-repostory adds the sources line to software.sources.d *and* imports the signing key22:32
ikoniaBUGabundo: no more than letting someone who can't add a text file update use development version22:32
yofeljust like the gui does now22:32
BUGabundoikonia: messing with a text file on /etc is ever *dangerouse*22:33
ikoniano more / less than letting someone of that level use development/unsupported software22:33
AnAnt_ikonia: if the PPA isn't for development version, but for software that isn't in official ubuntu repos for some reason (for example, some Debian policy violations in the package)22:33
* yofel gets the feeling that ikonia and BUBabundo went off into a discussion that has nothing to do with AnAnt_s question22:33
ikoniayofel: yes a little22:34
ikoniaAnAnt_: I'd still not agree with it22:34
AnAnt_well, some need it22:34
ikoniaI'd personally disagree with it22:34
ikoniaAnAnt_: got an example package ?22:34
yofelikonia: I know that ppas can be very useful *and* very dangerous, but that's no reason to tell people that they're evil22:35
AnAnt_ikonia: I'm working on a distro (called Sabily) based on Ubuntu, just with a few additional packages22:35
ikoniayofel: I'm not telling people they are evil22:35
ikoniaAnAnt_: that's nothing to do with ubuntu22:35
ikoniaAnAnt_: I'm asking something in relation to ubuntu22:35
AnAnt_ikonia: ok, I don22:35
BUGabundoAnAnt_: that was where getdeb started22:35
BUGabundobut then most Ubuntu devs killed the idea22:35

joaopintoBUGabundo, playdeb beta 2 went live this week22:37
BUGabundowoot22:37
BUGabundoAnAnt: eheh22:37
joaopintoAnAnt, I have choosen to provide an .deb which adds the required repos and gpg keys22:38
joaopintoI know something is being worked on the software properties, but it is not automated, mvo was working on it, yes22:38
AnAntjoaopinto: well, I done this too, but when I knew about this feature, I think this .deb won't be needed anymore22:39
yofelAnAnt: in Software Sources - Tab 'Third Party Software' you can add the ppa as 'ppa:<user>/<ppaname>' like ppa:do-core/ppa for example, that will add the ppa and import the signing key22:39
AnAntyofel: thanks22:39
BUGabundoAnAnt: joaopinto: well ubuntuone does the same thing22:39
ikoniayofel: ahh that was what I was looking for22:39
BUGabundoyofel: nice....22:40
* BUGabundo checks22:40
joaopintoAnAnt, that feature is for ppa's, not for repositories in general22:40
yofel'add-apt-repostory ppa:do-core/ppa' will do the same from the commmand line22:40

th1the netbook support is great in karmic I just upgraded my eee 1000he :)22:58
th1some crashes of course but they had all been reported already22:59
natewiebe13after blacklisting floppy.. you are supposed to run update-initramfs .. what variable is it?22:59
natewiebe13-u?22:59
th1but the sound volume is just way too low. I saw there was a bug filed, due to 2 volume control appplets but it was fixed as of yesterday. but now the volume is still low and I can't find any other bug reports. Should I file a new one?22:59
natewiebe13for some reason.. one controls pcm and the other controls master23:00
natewiebe13what you have to do is run alsamixer in terminal and crank master and pcm23:00
natewiebe13th1: try that23:00
natewiebe13th1: and then let me know if that fixes it23:01
th1they are already maxed out :/ first thing I tried.. second thing was upgrade bios23:01
BUGabundonatewiebe13: that's with billybigrigger23:01
BUGabundohe is the resident expert :)23:01
billybigrigger?23:01

BUGabundoth1: paman23:03
billybigriggeranyone here good with cherry picking kernel commits from kernel.org? i wish sarvatt was around23:03
natewiebe13anyone know why the mixer applet controls pcm and the volume on my keyboard controls master?23:04
th1BUGabundo, paman has tons of info but no volume control. Anything particular I'm looking for?23:04
BUGabundoth1: the advanced option to control GAIN23:05
BUGabundoI had a control on 50% and several on 999999%23:05
natewiebe13BUGabundo: do you know why the volume applet controls pcm and not master volume?23:06
billybigriggereveryone here still have 2 volume applets?23:06
billybigriggeri lost 1 today23:06
natewiebe13123:06
billybigriggerk good23:06
natewiebe13the 1 that i have controls pcm23:06
th1BUGabundo, that's got it23:06
th1BUGabundo, when it's on 200% then it's about how it was before I upgraded to Karmic and on par with XP23:07
natewiebe13BUGabundo: do you know why the volume applet controls pcm and not master volume?23:07
BUGabundobillybigrigger: only one23:08
BUGabundonatewiebe13: now23:08
BUGabundo*no23:08
th1BUGabundo, are you gonna take it from here or should I file a bug with this?23:08
billybigriggeroh god ubuntu's sound system/apps are just a bloody mess these days haha23:08
natewiebe13am i the only one that the volume applet controls pcm?23:09
BUGabundoth1 already enough audio bugs from me :)23:09
BookmanDoes ubuntuone work with 9.10?  I've uploaded something to my account in 9.04 and 9.10 does not see it.23:09
BUGabundoif you think it's a bug, file it23:09
BUGabundobillybigrigger: +10023:09
BUGabundonatewiebe13: well now *nothing* actually controls PCM23:09
billybigriggerU1 works here i think23:09
BUGabundoits flat rate, and it's a mess23:09
th1natewiebe13, after yesdterdays fixes my applet *and* my hotkeys both control Master, as it should be23:09
BUGabundoits a average of *every* app23:10
natewiebe13haha23:10
th1but the gain is still the problem23:10
billybigriggerBUGabundo, did you see that bootchart i uploaded to the share folder you linked me to?23:10
natewiebe13mine controls pcm23:10
BUGabundobillybigrigger: I haven't23:10
Bookmanbillybigrigger: you know, or you've tried from another machine?23:10
* BUGabundo starts U123:10
billybigriggerBookman, im in 9.1023:10
billybigriggerseems to work here23:10
th1ok heres something funny23:10
billybigriggeri only have 1 machine to test on though23:10
BookmanYes, it starts up here.  But I've uploaded something on one machine running 9.04 and 9.10 never sees the files23:11
Bookmanbillybigrigger: understood.23:11
natewiebe13i have alsamixer in terminal and when i move the slider up and down, the pcm level is the one that moves.. and when i move the volume control on my keyboard, it moves the master volume23:11
th1if I adjust the "volume" control in paman for the card it totally distorts the sound but if I adjust it on "#12" object just below then it works23:11
billybigriggerBookman, where are you sharing to?23:11
billybigriggerBookman, im not sure about U1, BUGabundo sent me an invite and i uploaded 1 file to it, and haven't done much research/playing around with it23:12
BUGabundobillybigrigger: 22sevs23:12
BUGabundonot bad23:12

billybigriggerloading gnome takes about just as much time as booting23:12
billybigriggerpretty sad :P23:12
billybigriggerBUGabundo, i don't think your the only one23:13
BUGabundoth1: distorces 'cause of the 200%23:13
th1BUGabundo, no23:13
BUGabundothat's why I told you to check it!23:13
th1it's distorting with 200% on the Sound Card23:13
natewiebe13BUGabundo: what should i do to change the control23:13
th1but not on "#12" below23:13
BUGabundobillybigrigger: lets hack your bootchart23:13
th1that fixes it23:13
BUGabundoand messure it past login too23:13
billybigriggerlets do it23:13
natewiebe13BUGabundo: also, the old sound volume left a dot on my panel23:14
BUGabundobillybigrigger: #gedit /etc/rc5.d/S99stop-bootchart23:14
th1BUGabundo, the problem is its not a gain control just a volume control that goes above 100%23:14
th1as soon as I change the volume another way it gets stuck back under 100%23:14
BUGabundobillybigrigger: add a sleep 30 on line 4123:14
th1I guess the "baseline" value is wrong somewhere23:14
BUGabundolet the sleep on line 42 untouched23:14
BUGabundonatewiebe13: th1: I 'm no audio expert23:15

DanaGwow, I just pushed "mute/unmute" 5 times... and the damn notify-osd lagggged like 3 seconds... and then showed only one bubble.23:47
* Twigathy grins - notify-send --urgency=critical CHEESE23:47
billybigriggerthere were about 10 changes, on the 21st, that all look to screw with bubble width, shadows, margins, haha23:47
yofelbillybigrigger: no, I look at the changelog with aptitude when I want, I've got other MLs that take my time :P23:47
DanaGoh, no wonder it's laggy.... I'm doing a xilinx tools synthesis thingy AND running filelight, at the same time.23:48

BUGabundonot where we are told what to do :(23:51

Shane_FaganTep23:53
BUGabundounless one of the devs says so, I doubt it23:53

DanaGSure would look a lot nicer with the bubbles in a nicer shape.23:57
