billybigrigger | BUGabundo, ya thats 16:10 | 00:01 |
BUGabundo | Shane_Fagan: its not a question of time | 00:01 |
Shane_Fagan | ah | 00:01 |
BUGabundo | its a question of pidgin it self not running on time | 00:01 |
DanaG | google "javascript dpi calculator" | 00:01 |
DanaG | yay, the higher DPI, the more awesome the display. Especially in Linux. | 00:03 |
DanaG | Well, except with certain closed-source software. | 00:03 |
BUGabundo | I have a 22 wide screen at work | 00:03 |
BUGabundo | and a 13.3" laptop at hom | 00:04 |
BUGabundo | takes me a while to get used to the lower space | 00:04 |
DanaG | Nobody makes a 147 DPI desktop display. | 00:04 |
DanaG | Oh, and having an LCD I can see clearly, even when outside in direct sun, is awesome. | 00:04 |
nhasian | hello everyone | 00:10 |
Spaghetti-code | dpi | 00:10 |
Spaghetti-code | lol | 00:10 |
nhasian | hello everyone | 00:10 |
Spaghetti-code | dots per inch, what a obsolete measurement | 00:10 |
Spaghetti-code | change to metrics like everyone on the earth USA | 00:11 |
TheInfinity | Spaghetti-code: dpi is used worldwide :p | 00:11 |
nhasian | i think they tried to pass that law in congress on at least two occasions | 00:11 |
DanaG | yeah, US Standard sucks. | 00:11 |
yofel | well ok, could somebody run s/dpi/ppi on the channel backlog? :P | 00:12 |
Spaghetti-code | no infinity, you cannot longer use it in the EU | 00:12 |
Spaghetti-code | you have to use dots per "metrics" | 00:12 |
Spaghetti-code | if you use it, you get a fine | 00:12 |

Spaghetti-code | in the new standard | 00:13 |
yofel | Spaghetti-code: what number? (Didn't hear about that) | 00:14 |
TheInfinity | Spaghetti-code: dpi is used in professionell layout / design also in europe. | 00:14 |
DanaG | damnit, why does NOBODY make a high-DPI desktop display? | 00:14 |
nhasian | i found the Linux Penguin on a cereal box today: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7667353 | 00:14 |
yofel | TheInfinity: the fact stays that we were talking about lcds where we should have used ppi instead :P | 00:14 |
DanaG | If I want to match my internal LCD... I'd have to buy a SECOND laptop display... and an LCD controller. | 00:15 |
Spaghetti-code | dpcm is what you have to use in the EU | 00:15 |
DanaG | 700 bucks total. | 00:15 |

billybigrigger | DanaG, nm woes? | 02:28 |
DanaG | Before, it was... but the longer break was me rebooting to try mainline kernel. | 02:29 |
DanaG | It's also highly possible my AP was acting up. | 02:29 |
DanaG | My EFI-based booting has broken recently... | 02:30 |
DanaG | It refuses to acknowledge the presence of initramfs... and thus fails to comprehend UUIDs. | 02:30 |

omegamormegil | I'm trying alpha 3 via a live USB, and can't seem to get wireless working on my Dell Mini 9 with b43-fwcutter or the STA driver. Any suggestions? | 04:02 |
VK7HSE | has anyone attempted to install karmic alpha3 in virtualbox 3.0.2 r49928 ??? both amd64 & i386 fail ??? | 04:54 |
VK7HSE | desktop install that is... | 05:05 |
billybigrigger | where does it fail? | 05:09 |
ltsmooth42 | Should the new ati-driver 9.7 work in ubuntu 9.10? | 05:38 |

DanaG | ltsmooth42: good place to check: phoronix.com forums. | 05:43 |
ltsmooth42 | thanks | 05:43 |
DanaG | It may be a while before somebody updates the 2.6.31 patches for 9.7. | 05:44 |
VK7HSE | billybigrigger: the amd64 claims that I'm not using a x86_64 (when I am!) and the i386 says that all is installed but when it restarts, it errors (virtualbox) to the point where virtualbox stops that vm... I'm currently getting the alternate amd64 & i386 to try those... | 05:45 |
VK7HSE | I'm not sure if the virtualbox log would assist (if this is a bug!) | 05:47 |
VK7HSE | this link is the amd64 issue ... http://files.getdropbox.com/u/927280/Karmic%20Alpha3-2009-07-24-10-29-23.log the second one is the i386 issue ... http://files.getdropbox.com/u/927280/Karmic%20Alpha3-2009-07-24-13-41-35.log | 05:50 |
VK7HSE | Hmm.. ok I've just restarted the i386 install and it's now booted and working! Gahh maybe I should try sleeping! :P | 05:58 |
billybigrigger | glad i could help | 06:08 |
billybigrigger | haha | 06:08 |
VK7HSE | billybigrigger: but a reboot of the VM results in the same error! (just updated to current releases!) but a fresh boot of the VM if fine... so maybe it's more a virtualbox issue! ;) | 06:18 |
billybigrigger | what are you running? | 06:18 |
billybigrigger | what is the host os | 06:18 |
virtuald | what happend to libasound_module_pcm_a52.so? | 06:18 |
billybigrigger | VK7HSE, ?? | 06:19 |
VK7HSE | billybigrigger: ok... let me try to explain it a little clearer then! ... whe the i386 VM botted/loaded I then updated alpha3 to current updates (synaptic) once that was complete, I then rebooted that i386 VM ... I got the same halt issue .. /home/scott/Dropbox/Public/VBox.log.3 ... http://files.getdropbox.com/u/927280/VBox.png.2 but after closing that VM and then restarting it it then boots as expected! :-/ | 06:23 |
VK7HSE | try http://files.getdropbox.com/u/927280/VBox.log.3 for that first link! | 06:24 |
billybigrigger | i think i know your problem | 06:26 |
billybigrigger | :P | 06:26 |
billybigrigger | how long are you letting it wait to boot? | 06:27 |
billybigrigger | i can almost guarantee you that ubuntu is looking for a floppy disk | 06:27 |
billybigrigger | you need to blacklist your floppy module | 06:27 |
billybigrigger | VK7HSE, ? | 06:35 |
VK7HSE | it is! | 06:36 |
VK7HSE | err... I think! | 06:36 |
VK7HSE | just checking! | 06:36 |
billybigrigger | let it boot | 06:36 |
billybigrigger | it will take a few minutes, but it will boot | 06:36 |
VK7HSE | yeh it's disabled! | 06:37 |
VK7HSE | anyway I'm more concerned about the x86_64 issue! | 06:38 |
billybigrigger | copy and paste this | 06:39 |
billybigrigger | $ uname -a | 06:39 |
billybigrigger | and if your trying to install a 64bit ubuntu image, and your vm is not set for 64bit it might not work | 06:40 |
billybigrigger | you have to tell virtualbox your installing ubuntu 64bit | 06:40 |
billybigrigger | and your i386 image installs fine because you've told vbox its a 32bit image... | 06:41 |
VK7HSE | ok... shall try a little later... ;) | 06:41 |
billybigrigger | hold up | 06:41 |
billybigrigger | http://imagebin.ca/view/XfsgHD.html | 06:42 |
billybigrigger | VK7HSE, does your vbox look like that? do you see that little "64" in the corner of the ubuntu icon? | 06:42 |
billybigrigger | in your settings you can switch between 32/64, no need to re-install | 06:43 |
VK7HSE | well it didn't ... so there's my problem !!! I selected the wrong profile !! | 06:43 |
billybigrigger | yeah | 06:43 |
VK7HSE | ;) | 06:43 |
billybigrigger | don't delete it though, you can change the settings without re-installing | 06:44 |
VK7HSE | thanks ... (I'm a true professional IDIOT!) | 06:44 |
billybigrigger | so does it boot? | 06:44 |
VK7HSE | just starting now... | 06:45 |
VK7HSE | \o/ !!! | 06:46 |
VK7HSE | that's a yes! | 06:46 |

Le-Chuck_ITA | Hi, do you know why in firefox with the dust-sand theme the url bar has incorrect highlighting? | 10:14 |
Le-Chuck_ITA | it seems the selection background is white | 10:14 |
Le-Chuck_ITA | but only in firefox | 10:14 |
ikonia | Le-Chuck_ITA: speak to the guy who made the theme ? | 10:20 |
ikonia | Le-Chuck_ITA: I didn't think the themes where provided by ubuntu | 10:20 |
Le-Chuck_ITA | ikonia: no it's just in firefox | 10:20 |
rob__ | hello | 10:20 |
rob__ | <rob__> ok well when i boot LINUX KARMIC latest kernel, it looks like it will boot fine, and then firstly it says "NVIDIA (96.43.10) FAIL" Then when it rund through that it says ASSUMING DRIVE CACH: WRITE THROUGH, it says this twice and then o the second just freezes and wont boot | 10:20 |
Le-Chuck_ITA | I think it's a new theme in karmic ikonia | 10:20 |
Le-Chuck_ITA | I didn't install that separately as far as I remember but maybe | 10:20 |
Le-Chuck_ITA | but the problem is only in firefox | 10:21 |
ikonia | Le-Chuck_ITA: I'd double check it, but if not log it as a bug | 10:21 |
ikonia | rob__: which kernel | 10:21 |
Le-Chuck_ITA | ikonia: a bug in firefox anyways but how can I know if it's installed by default? I need to know if... the intersection between the transitive closure of reverse depends and the packages installed by default is non-empty! :) | 10:21 |
rob__ | latest one? | 10:22 |
Le-Chuck_ITA | no easier | 10:22 |
Le-Chuck_ITA | I just need to know if it's installed by default | 10:22 |
Le-Chuck_ITA | is there a list somewhere | 10:22 |
=== yofel_ is now known as yofel | ||
ikonia | rob__: which one | 10:22 |
rob__ | i dont know to be hnest | 10:22 |
ikonia | rob__: then you can't report an error | 10:23 |
ikonia | rob__: you need to get details | 10:23 |
rob__ | this happened after i set the nvidia driver to 96 and turned compiz off | 10:23 |
ikonia | rob__: the initial error suggests the nvidia module is not compatible with the kernel | 10:23 |
ikonia | rob__: where did you get the nvidia module ? | 10:23 |
rob__ | well it worked fine before i did that ^^^ | 10:23 |
ikonia | rob__: where did you get the nvidia module ? | 10:24 |
rob__ | usual default nvidia drivers from linux add ons packages | 10:24 |
rob__ | i was using117 but someone told me to use the earlier 96 one | 10:24 |
ikonia | rob__: well that messages suggests that module can't be loaded, but I'd be surprised if thast caused the machie to hang | 10:25 |
rob__ | so .... | 10:25 |
ikonia | so ? | 10:25 |
rob__ | what should i do? | 10:25 |
ikonia | find out what kernel you're runnining for starters | 10:25 |
rob__ | ok stay online please!! | 10:25 |
rob__ | ikonia? | 10:30 |
rob__ | ikonia? | 10:30 |
ikonia | yes | 10:30 |
rob__ | 2.6.31-3 | 10:31 |
ikonia | rob__: so search the launchad bug page at a high level to check for any known bugs | 10:31 |
yofel | maybe the nvidia-96 driver needs the same 2.6.31 patches like n-180? | 10:31 |
ikonia | rob__: then boot into single usermode - if possible, and disable the nvidia driver | 10:31 |
ikonia | rob__: failing that boot from a livecd, mount your 9.10 install and disable the nvidia driver | 10:31 |
ikonia | rob__: then test your 9.10 install again | 10:32 |
rob__ | so what can i do? just give me an easy solutino | 10:32 |
ikonia | rob__: I've just given you 3 steps | 10:32 |
rob__ | i dont want a fesh install | 10:32 |
ikonia | no-one said a fresh install | 10:32 |
ikonia | re-read what I typed | 10:32 |
rob__ | ok il try that | 10:33 |
rob__ | bye | 10:33 |
rob__ | for now.... | 10:33 |
zniavre_ | nvidia made a driver for legacy card 173.14.20 maybe they made for older card too | 10:48 |
rob__ | ikonia | 10:50 |
ikonia | yes ? | 10:50 |
rob__ | no worky | 10:50 |
rob__ | i logged into a single user session | 10:50 |
ikonia | what doesn't ? | 10:50 |
rob__ | mounted the drive | 10:50 |
rob__ | changed back to the latest drivers | 10:50 |
rob__ | and it still hangs on assuming drive cache : write through | 10:51 |
rob__ | just stops | 10:51 |
ikonia | I suggest disabling nvidia totally | 10:51 |
rob__ | i dont think its to do with nvidia why it wont bot | 10:51 |
rob__ | boot* | 10:51 |
ikonia | ok then I'm done helping | 10:51 |
rob__ | sorry? | 10:51 |
rob__ | no i do need your help badly | 10:51 |
rob__ | it always said nvidia fail before but still booted | 10:52 |
rob__ | please please i need it running | 10:52 |
zniavre_ | you can't run 173.14 drivers? | 10:53 |

rob__ | 180? | 10:53 |
zniavre_ | no 173 for legacy card | 10:54 |
rob__ | I ONT KNOW I NEED HELPP | 10:54 |
rob__ | assuming drive chache: write through??? and then stops | 10:54 |
ikonia | rob__: why are you running the development/unstable version of an OS if you need it so bad ? | 10:54 |
zniavre_ | wich card ? | 10:54 |
ikonia | why are you not running a stable oS ? | 10:54 |
rob__ | i dont know | 10:55 |
ikonia | rob__: right - so use a stable OS | 10:55 |
rob__ | look im fairly new to linux ok | 10:55 |
ikonia | rob__: so use a stable OS | 10:55 |
ikonia | install 9.04 and upgrade if/when 9.10 is stable | 10:55 |
rob__ | im just trying my best, and all love all apects of the os | 10:55 |

ikonia | rob__: the sooner you start using a stable system the better | 10:59 |
ikonia | rob__: ubuntu did not offer an upgrade to 9.10 - you must have gone looking for it | 10:59 |
rob__ | no i really didint | 10:59 |

zniavre_ | rob__, you should find an how to in your language to know how to install nvidia.run it's quite easy if you faollow step by step process | 11:00 |

om26er | plz tell me what is the respository of karmic | 11:20 |
om26er | e.g. deb http:///launch | 11:20 |
om26er | can i partially update jaunty with the updates of karmic??? | 11:25 |
SwedeMike | why would you want to do that? | 11:25 |
om26er | i want softwares to be updated | 11:26 |
yofel | om26er: you don't want to add the karmic sources to your software sources, you'll either get karmic or break your system by doing that | 11:28 |
maxb | You can't mix and match with later distroseries | 11:28 |
yofel | om26er: you can get specific ones from packages.ubuntu.com instead | 11:28 |
om26er | what will happen if i add karmic respository in jaunty | 11:28 |
om26er | ? | 11:29 |
yofel | om26er: you'll probably get karmic | 11:29 |
yofel | since all packages will be updated | 11:29 |
om26er | can u give me that respo? | 11:29 |
maxb | You'll either end up with a poorly managed complete upgrade to karmic, or a horrendous mismatch which NO ONE will want to help you with | 11:30 |
yofel | om26er: are you sure you want to break your system? | 11:30 |
om26er | np | 11:30 |
yofel | then get the package you want from packages.ubuntu.com instead | 11:30 |
maxb | om26er: I could, but I don't think I would be acting responsibly or in your best interests if I did. | 11:30 |
om26er | ok then i try packages.ubuntu.com | 11:31 |
Guest6103 | Hi everyone. It's richardcavell here. I have a Macbook with Intel GMA 950. I installed all the packages from xorg-edgers, as well as Linux 2.6.30. Now X won't boot. I can sometimes hear the startup sound, and I usually get a mouse pointer, but otherwise a black screen. Any ideas? | 12:04 |
rsk | Guest6103: are you using karmic? | 12:06 |
Guest6103 | rsk: No, I'm using Jaunty. But in order to upgrade my drivers I upgraded my Linux kernel (that seems to have worked okay), and I also upgraded all my video drivers to the edgy versions. | 12:07 |
rsk | right then > #ubuntu | 12:07 |
Guest6103 | rsk: Okay | 12:08 |
Guest6103 | where did ubuntu-x go? | 12:08 |
rsk | no idea, never been there | 12:08 |
Guest6103 | it might only exist periodically when they conference | 12:11 |

gnomefreak | Fluffles: it wasnt totem provides both of those now | 14:49 |
gnomefreak | looks like they made totem a meta package with both gstreamer and xine | 14:51 |
Fluffles | gnomefreak, ok it says it provides them, But the xine-lib backend is still non existant. | 14:52 |
Fluffles | https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/totem/2.27.1-1ubuntu1/+changes <-- It says there that it was removed. Just doesn't say why. | 14:52 |

eagles0513875 | hey guys | 16:44 |
eagles0513875 | the command to upgrade from jaunty to karmic is update-manager-kde -d | 16:44 |
eagles0513875 | or update-manager -d | 16:44 |
eagles0513875 | answered my own question | 16:45 |
BluesKaj | dist-upgrade | 16:47 |
Pici | BluesKaj: no... that won't upgrade between releases. | 16:48 |
BluesKaj | odd, that's the command I used | 16:49 |
BluesKaj | sudo aptitude dist-upgrade | 16:49 |
EagleScreen | i think it is update-notifier-kde -d | 16:50 |
eagles0513875 | i used update-notifier -d after pressing alt+f2 and its upgrading | 16:51 |
eagles0513875 | its using the gnome update manager though which i find interesting | 16:52 |
EagleScreen | it shouldn't use the gnome update manager | 16:52 |
BluesKaj | of course iI upgraded the sources.list first | 16:52 |
eagles0513875 | what command should i have used | 16:53 |
eagles0513875 | i used update-manager-kde -d and it wasnt working for me | 16:53 |
BluesKaj | dunno if it's amatter of which is correct , they prolly all are ,it's just the vehicle you use to get there | 16:54 |
EagleScreen | eagles0513875: use: kdesudo update-notifier-kde -d | 16:54 |
eagles0513875 | true BluesKaj | 16:54 |
BluesKaj | that's graphical | 16:54 |
BluesKaj | kdesudo | 16:54 |
Pici | BluesKaj: touching the sources.list and doing dist-upgrade can cause issues. There are often extra steps that the update-manager does when it does a release upgarde. | 16:55 |
eagles0513875 | EagleScreen: just need to hit alt+f2 to open up the lil run like box and type in the command there no need for sudo or kdesudo or anything | 16:55 |
eagles0513875 | how come for instance update-manager-kde isnt installed outa the box | 16:55 |
BluesKaj | Pici, i made sure i did an update and upgrade , then an autoclean before editing the sources.list ...it worked quite cleanly for me and I've used that method for the last 4 releases | 16:57 |
eagles0513875 | the update-manager-kde -d isnt working for me | 16:58 |
EagleScreen | it is update-notifier-kde -d | 16:58 |
EagleScreen | update-notifier launchs later update-manager-kde | 16:59 |
eagles0513875 | i was typing that and nothing happened | 16:59 |
EagleScreen | eagles0513875: are you in jaunty? | 17:02 |
eagles0513875 | ya i am on a virtual machine | 17:02 |
EagleScreen | eagles0513875: be sure you have installed update-notifier-kde and update-manager-kde | 17:03 |
eagles0513875 | says there are no installation candidates | 17:04 |
bmunger | suspend stopped working after update with ati open source drivers | 17:04 |
EagleScreen | eagles0513875: if cannot use update-notifier/manager to upgrade for any reason, use aptitude at the Debian way | 17:06 |
eagles0513875 | what is the debian way if you dont mind me asking | 17:06 |
bmunger | aptitude seems safer at doing everything | 17:06 |
eagles0513875 | well i havent had issues the non debian way though upgrading | 17:06 |
EagleScreen | eagles0513875: set your repositories pointing to karmic, and later update packages | 17:10 |
Spaghetti-code | i smell its stable | 17:10 |
Spaghetti-code | i need another login screen | 17:10 |
eagles0513875 | isnt that risky to do though | 17:10 |
Spaghetti-code | i want a pop up box with the same theme i've using on the machine | 17:11 |
EagleScreen | it is better doing the upgrade in some parts, first upgrading the kernel, the xorg, aptitude and reboot, and later running $ sudo aptitude full-upgrade, and later $sudo aptitude dist-upgrade | 17:11 |
Spaghetti-code | so there must be a way to define it in the appearance of gnome | 17:11 |
eagles0513875 | im gonna reinstall teh vm its no big didnt have anything installed on it anyway | 17:12 |
BluesKaj | eagles0513875, why a vm ? | 17:23 |
eagles0513875 | im on my laptop | 17:23 |
eagles0513875 | have karmic on my desktop upstairs | 17:23 |
BluesKaj | I found that wubi is better for a laptop with vista due to the bootloader probs one has with that version of windows | 17:25 |
BluesKaj | the bootloader / grub can be installed but it involves fooling with the BCD editor , http://blogs.techrepublic.com.com/networking/?p=1709&tag=nl.e064 | 17:28 |
eagles0513875 | BluesKaj: this is mac | 17:29 |
BluesKaj | then what about parallels ? | 17:29 |
SeveredCross | I could boot Win7 fine via GRUB. | 17:31 |
SeveredCross | So I'm not sure what the problem is. | 17:31 |
eagles0513875 | BluesKaj: would need to purchase it | 17:31 |
BluesKaj | SeveredCross, I'm dual booting W7 and kubuntu , but I just edited grub to tget W7 access ,since kubuntu was already installed | 17:33 |
BluesKaj | but installing kubuntu on a vista/W7 pc is more difficult due to the BCD setup om windows | 17:35 |
BluesKaj | om=on | 17:35 |

SeveredCross | Must've changed recently. | 18:38 |
natewiebe13 | yeah | 18:38 |
ruslanr | blk: I experience this thing from Intrepid :) | 18:39 |
natewiebe13 | i remember the option | 18:39 |
SeveredCross | Mine must have leftover settings from Jaunty. | 18:39 |
natewiebe13 | maybe | 18:39 |
SeveredCross | I think they changed it to comply with PulseAudio's flat volumes garbage, which is horribly broken. | 18:39 |
ruslanr | blk: I mean, when I can't return compiz back :) | 18:39 |
natewiebe13 | i did a fresh install from a daily build about 2 weeks ago | 18:39 |
SeveredCross | I can't stand PulseAudio | 18:39 |
BluesKaj | DPic, there must be a listing of connected devices , then look at properties to see how the device is named and then make sure it's in your fstab | 18:39 |
natewiebe13 | same | 18:39 |
SeveredCross | It doesn't support my audio hardware correctly, it breaks volumes all the time, etc. | 18:39 |
natewiebe13 | i prefer the way it was set up with jaunty | 18:39 |
robert__ | it works with mplayer, just not with pulse audio | 18:39 |
SeveredCross | Yeah, the Jaunty set up was nice. | 18:39 |
natewiebe13 | mine works fine except how it controls pcm | 18:39 |
natewiebe13 | but i do like how you can change volume from each app | 18:40 |
SeveredCross | I have a laptop with 2.1 channels, and there is *no* way to fix that. | 18:40 |
SeveredCross | Literally, I hacked away at the pulseaudio config files for 2-3 hours once, could not get it to see my audio as 2.1 channels. | 18:40 |
SeveredCross | The LFE channel *gets* output, but PulseAudio doesn't know about it, which makes volume control all broken. | 18:40 |
DPic | BluesKaj, by named, do oyu mean like dev/sdb1? | 18:41 |
BluesKaj | DPic, yes | 18:41 |
DPic | BluesKaj, and how do i see if it's in my fstab? | 18:41 |
natewiebe13 | thats why im not running karmic at home.. i have creative x-fi | 18:42 |
natewiebe13 | they have their own drivers.. so im waiting until the final release | 18:42 |
ruslanr | will those drivers appear in 2.6.31? | 18:43 |
natewiebe13 | SeveredCross: yesterday the volume control on my keyboard was controlling the master levels, and the applet was controlling pcm.. now they both control pcm | 18:44 |
henux | what great things is the Ubuntu 9.10 supposed to bring? | 18:44 |
natewiebe13 | they are messed | 18:44 |
yofel | henux: http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/karmic/alpha3 | 18:44 |
cortex_sk | hi guys are there any known problems in karmic with nvidia proprietary driver & kde4.3rc3? | 18:44 |
natewiebe13 | henux: new gdm/login/boot experience, ubuntuone (great feature) | 18:44 |
BluesKaj | DPic, alt+f2 , gksudo gedit /etc/fstab | 18:44 |
natewiebe13 | cortex_sk: im using nvidia 190.18 and they work great | 18:45 |
henux | what is the ubuntuone? | 18:45 |
ruslanr | henux: https://ubuntuone.com/ | 18:45 |
natewiebe13 | ubuntuone is a service that you can sync your files on as many computers as you want and share with other people | 18:45 |
DPic | BluesKaj, ok, it's not there | 18:45 |
cortex_sk | natewiebe13: thank you | 18:45 |
natewiebe13 | cortex_sk: i got them from the karmic testing ppa | 18:46 |
BluesKaj | DPic, does gnome have a device notifier ? | 18:46 |
DPic | BluesKaj, but it won't always be /dev/sdb1 because it's usb. I'd have to identify it by the UUId, right? | 18:46 |
DPic | BluesKaj, not sure, what does a device notifier notify me of? | 18:47 |
BluesKaj | when you plug stuff like a USB device in | 18:47 |
natewiebe13 | cortex_sk: im actually using 190.09 sorry | 18:48 |
DPic | nope, nautilus just opens up | 18:48 |
natewiebe13 | cortex_sk: the new one is broken.. here is the ppa https://launchpad.net/~thefirstm/+archive/karmic-testing | 18:48 |
natewiebe13 | cortex_sk: 190.09 works great though | 18:48 |
MindVirus | Is Karmic stable enough for any usage at all? | 18:50 |
natewiebe13 | cortex_sk: i dont know if 190.18 breaks on karmic, but it sure did on jaunty | 18:50 |
natewiebe13 | MindVirus: id say so | 18:50 |
natewiebe13 | i use it for work | 18:50 |
MindVirus | What kind of usage? | 18:50 |
cortex_sk | natewiebe13: i will try them, thanks again | 18:50 |
natewiebe13 | website editing, graphic design (inkscape/gimp), music, webbrowsing, ftp transfers, wine (dreamweaver cs4), pidgin (msn/irc), folder sync (ubuntuone) | 18:51 |
natewiebe13 | everything has worked fine so far | 18:51 |
DPic | BluesKaj, no, nautilus just opens to the location | 18:51 |
DPic | BluesKaj, unless it's not a storage drive like a camera in which case it will ask you what to do | 18:52 |
natewiebe13 | MindVirus: only complaint is that the volume controls the pcm and not master, so to control master, you have to use alsamixer in terminal | 18:52 |
MindVirus | That's interesting. | 18:52 |
natewiebe13 | yeah | 18:53 |
MindVirus | Are you running typical hardware? | 18:53 |
MindVirus | BRB, please respond when I get back. | 18:54 |
natewiebe13 | MindVirus: core 2 duo e5200, 2gb ram, 500gb seagate hd, lg burner, wireless n pci card, nvidia geforce 6200 (crap card, i have nvidia 285 at home), and cmi 5.1 card | 18:54 |
natewiebe13 | MindVirus: core 2 duo e5200, 2gb ram, 500gb seagate hd, lg burner, wireless n pci card, nvidia geforce 6200 (crap card, i have nvidia 285 at home), and cmi 5.1 card | 18:54 |
MindVirus | Are you using 64-bit? | 18:55 |
natewiebe13 | 32 | 18:55 |
MindVirus | OK, that makes more sense. | 18:55 |
natewiebe13 | 64 always seems to be missing compatibility | 18:55 |
natewiebe13 | both linux and windows | 18:55 |
MindVirus | yes. | 18:55 |
MindVirus | I'm running 64-bit. | 18:55 |
BluesKaj | DPic, your ipod doesn't show up as an audio device just as an unknown drive ? | 18:55 |
DPic | BluesKaj, my ipod? i'm talking about my external HDD | 18:56 |
fvmt | Hi, does anybody have any expirience using blueman in 9.10? | 18:57 |
BluesKaj | DPic, oops sorry , wrong person :P | 18:57 |
DPic | BluesKaj, haha no problem | 18:57 |
fvmt | I'm not able to use gprs and appreciate any possible help | 18:57 |
BluesKaj | wrong chat too :) | 18:57 |
BluesKaj | DPic, what happens if you wait til your machine is booted, then plug in the drive ? | 19:00 |
natewiebe13 | MindVirus: thinking of using 9.10? | 19:00 |
MindVirus | I know I'm going to. | 19:00 |
MindVirus | Eventually. | 19:00 |
natewiebe13 | MindVirus: usually things calm down alpha 5 | 19:01 |
MindVirus | That sounds fair. | 19:01 |
natewiebe13 | usually nvidia/compiz breaks between 4 and 5 | 19:01 |
natewiebe13 | haha | 19:01 |
MindVirus | So you're used to this. | 19:01 |
natewiebe13 | started with 7.04 | 19:01 |
MindVirus | Do you spend more time in alpha than you do in final release? | 19:01 |
natewiebe13 | yeah | 19:02 |
natewiebe13 | haha | 19:02 |
natewiebe13 | as soon as the first live cd comes out | 19:02 |
DPic | BluesKaj, i'll try that | 19:02 |
DPic | brb | 19:02 |
DPic | BluesKaj, same thing | 19:06 |
DPic | for some reason, my drives are mounting as the name of the drive (the UUID) instead of /media/disk, /media/disk-1, etc | 19:07 |
=== apw is now known as cafetiere | ||
DPic | my removable drives* | 19:07 |
natewiebe13 | MindVirus: connection problems? | 19:07 |
MindVirus | Not even. | 19:07 |
MindVirus | Pidgin problems. | 19:07 |
natewiebe13 | 9.04? | 19:07 |
ripps | Hmm... I just noticed that my volume mutes at 50% now. That's kinda weird | 19:07 |
natewiebe13 | MindVirus: what version of pidgin and version of ubuntu? | 19:07 |
MindVirus | 9.04, 2.5.5. | 19:08 |
MindVirus | Sorry. | 19:08 |
MindVirus | .8. | 19:08 |
MindVirus | I'm using Pidgin's PPAs. | 19:08 |
=== cafetiere is now known as apw | ||
natewiebe13 | okay..same | 19:08 |
natewiebe13 | i have no problems | 19:08 |
MindVirus | I am rearranging the contacts in my buddy list. | 19:08 |
MindVirus | And it crashes. | 19:08 |
natewiebe13 | okay | 19:08 |
MindVirus | When I do maybe 5 or 6. | 19:09 |
natewiebe13 | that explains it | 19:09 |
natewiebe13 | haha | 19:09 |
natewiebe13 | what protocall? | 19:09 |
MindVirus | Doesn't matter. | 19:09 |
ruslanr | hm, Empathy doesn't support IRC? | 19:09 |
MindVirus | I did IRC, then Facebook. | 19:09 |
natewiebe13 | that sucks | 19:09 |
DPic | ruslanr, it does, but oyu need to install the IRC telepathy thing | 19:09 |
DPic | they left it out because it doesn't work very well right now | 19:09 |
MindVirus | natewiebe13: yeah, but that's what #pidgin's for. | 19:09 |
ruslanr | DPic: ok, thanks for information :) | 19:10 |
natewiebe13 | MindVirus: i just do irc and msn, and dont have problems.. so its probably another protocol thats doing that | 19:10 |
MindVirus | I'm sure. | 19:10 |
MindVirus | But I would like to get to the bottom of this. | 19:10 |
natewiebe13 | yeah | 19:10 |
natewiebe13 | but i like pidgin way more the empathy | 19:11 |
natewiebe13 | anyone know if they are ditching rhythmbox and replacing it with banshee? | 19:12 |
ruslanr | I heard, that there are some blockers for Banshee migration | 19:13 |
natewiebe13 | that sucks | 19:13 |
natewiebe13 | banshee is way better imo | 19:13 |
SeveredCross | As far as I know, we're *not* going to get Banshee for karmic. | 19:13 |
SeveredCross | The Banshee guys don't think they can get all the blockers sorted out in time | 19:13 |
ruslanr | :( | 19:13 |
natewiebe13 | (N) | 19:13 |
natewiebe13 | [thumbs down] | 19:14 |
SeveredCross | Should be ready for Karmic+1. | 19:14 |
natewiebe13 | hope so | 19:14 |
natewiebe13 | one thing.. gnome needs to let its programs revamp their sites | 19:14 |
natewiebe13 | the rhythmbox website seems like 1995 | 19:14 |
SeveredCross | Do, Tomboy and Banshee have good sites. :D | 19:14 |
natewiebe13 | exactly | 19:14 |
natewiebe13 | gnome-do needs to be put into karmic | 19:15 |
natewiebe13 | doesnt have to be a dock, but do should be in karmic by default | 19:15 |
Pici | Its in the jaunty repos. | 19:15 |
natewiebe13 | though i do like the dock | 19:15 |
natewiebe13 | i know | 19:15 |
natewiebe13 | but installed | 19:15 |
SeveredCross | I think he means in the default install. | 19:15 |

cwillu_clone | bugabundu been around? | 19:26 |
natewiebe13 | last time i saw him on was last night | 19:27 |
cwillu_clone | mvo, you around? | 19:27 |
cwillu_clone | I've got an installer bug and quasi-fix for you! | 19:27 |
* BluesKaj wonders what is meant by "quasi-fix" :) | 19:28 | |
* cwillu_clone feels like homer simpson, chasing down the garbage truck, trying to present them with his oh-so-pungent garbage | 19:28 | |
cwillu_clone | BluesKaj, the file in question has a big comment header saying that it is unnecessary, but being kept around as a sanity check | 19:28 |
cwillu_clone | BluesKaj, the sanity check contradicts the installer though | 19:28 |
BluesKaj | sounds like it's qusai-broken | 19:29 |
cwillu_clone | installer claims that according to the selections I've made, there will be no need to write to the partition table (and there isn't), but then the sanity check still fails | 19:29 |
cwillu_clone | yep | 19:29 |
cwillu_clone | and hence only really needs a quasi fix :p | 19:29 |
cwillu_clone | but I could see somebody wanting it to give a confirmation prompt, or even better (?) duplicate (!?) the logic done by ubiquity so that it allows the same cases through | 19:30 |
cwillu_clone | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/372549 | 19:30 |
ubottu | Ubuntu bug 372549 in ubiquity "Ubuntu Jaunty installer lies about touching partition table" [Undecided,New] | 19:30 |
cwillu_clone | /lib/partman/commit.d/01unmount_busy is the relevant file | 19:30 |
th1 | hi I just installed the latest upgrade-bunch on my Eee 1000HE and now the touchpad can't click or scroll | 19:31 |
* BluesKaj is blinded by too much information ...think I'll take a break | 19:31 | |
th1 | its only useless | 19:31 |
cwillu_clone | th1, there's changes affecting that bouncing in and out iirc | 19:31 |
cwillu_clone | re: hal | 19:31 |
cwillu_clone | th1, you should be able to install gsynaptics and configure the touchpad to turn things back on, or you can find the relevant xorg hotplugging rules to fix it | 19:33 |
* cwillu_clone resumes pondering how to attach 12 leads to a bga chip the size of this letter -> o | 19:34 | |
* cwillu_clone looks over at the toaster oven | 19:34 | |
Spaghetti-code | my cat is trying to find a bubble gum | 19:36 |
mvo | cwillu_clone: now I'm around | 19:37 |
th1 | cwillu_clone, one nice feature would be "revert last upgrade" | 19:37 |
mvo | cwillu_clone: well, on and off :) | 19:37 |
* cwillu_clone tins Spaghetti-code's cat, ducktapes the bga to his head, and sticks the whole mess in the toaster oven | 19:37 | |
th1 | and then install one byy one | 19:37 |
cwillu_clone | mvo, /lib/partman/commit.d/01unmount_busy hurts my feelings by making ubiquity refuse to install to sda1 when I'm booted off a live image on sda2 | 19:37 |
cwillu_clone | mvo, make the crying stop :) | 19:38 |
cwillu_clone | I just killed it here, the system installed correctly | 19:38 |
mvo | cwillu_clone: uh, I'm not a ubiquity master :) that would be evand or cjwatson | 19:38 |
mvo | (sorry) | 19:38 |
cwillu_clone | oh right, you're update-manager | 19:38 |
cwillu_clone | sorry :p | 19:38 |
* cwillu_clone pokes the two people who aren't in channel with a stick | 19:39 | |
cwillu_clone | mvo, do you know if those are their irc nicks, or are they not on here much? | 19:39 |
mvo | cwillu_clone: might just be a bad time (it evening in europe) - you could also try #ubuntu-devel | 19:39 |
cwillu_clone | k | 19:39 |
cwillu_clone | well, I updated the relevant bug already (from jaunty), I just thought I'd give it a little personal care :p | 19:40 |
th1 | checked for updates only "sed" update yay I just want my touchpad back ;) | 19:40 |
Spaghetti-code | meowagi | 19:42 |
cwillu_clone | oh wow, event.d renamed to init | 19:47 |
cwillu_clone | that's probably sensible, but it's sure going to be annoying until more things that I /e<tab>in<tab>ap<tab> restart all day become upstart jobs | 19:48 |
vega_ | where can i see what percentage a certain filesystem (ext3) has reserved for root? | 19:48 |
cwillu_clone | vega_, sudo tune2fs -l /dev/sda1 would tell you I think | 19:53 |
th1 | vega_, dumpe2fs | 19:53 |
cwillu_clone | ah, that one | 19:53 |
cwillu_clone | actually, it's the same output | 19:53 |
th1 | ok | 19:54 |
cwillu_clone | vega_, it'd be 5% unless you changed it though iirc | 19:54 |
th1 | cwillu_clone, I guess dumpe2fs is slightly safer since it can't modify stuff | 19:55 |
th1 | so dumpe2fs -h /dev/sdaX | 19:55 |
cwillu_clone | th1, it also outputs alot of irrelevant junk though :p | 19:56 |
th1 | not with -h | 19:56 |
vega_ | th1: ok thanks | 20:01 |
vega_ | Reserved blocks uid: 0 (user root) | 20:02 |
vega_ | Reserved blocks gid: 0 (group root) | 20:03 |
vega_ | i guess that means 0% then | 20:03 |
cwillu_clone | vega_, be careful if you did that deliberately | 20:05 |
cwillu_clone | vega_, it's alot harder to recover from a disk-full situation if there's nothing reserved for root | 20:05 |
cwillu_clone | (granted that you don't need 5% on a 500gb drive, but still | 20:05 |
oldude67 | hey how do i get k3b to let me use it as user instead of root? | 20:16 |

cwillu_clone | Spaghetti-code, you upgraded straight to hardy right? | 20:32 |
Spaghetti-code | yeah 8.04 | 20:32 |
Spaghetti-code | i thin | 20:32 |
cwillu_clone | (although at that point, you might just be better off backing up home, etc, and your package list | 20:32 |

hinto | I've been digging karmic for a couple of weeks on my core 2 quad. I'm currently at Alpha 2.. If I update with the update-manager, will it cary me to Alpha 3? | 20:59 |
yofel | hinto: yes | 21:00 |
hinto | yofel: I just didn't see a new kernel in there. Is it actually in alpha 3? | 21:00 |
yofel | It won't say alpha3 anywhere though | 21:01 |
yofel | hinto: the alpha3 kernel is 2.6.31-3 | 21:01 |
hinto | yofel: yes... But I didn't see that in the update manager when it listed available updates | 21:01 |

yofel | hinto: alpha2 with all updates is alpha3 | 21:02 |
ikonia | Spaghetti-code: nested raid ? | 21:02 |
Spaghetti-code | a mirrored raid 0 | 21:02 |
hinto | yofel: thanks for the info... I'll update... | 21:02 |
yofel | hinto: The alpha releases are just snapshots of the current development process | 21:02 |
Spaghetti-code | four drives | 21:02 |
hinto | yofel: I lived with sid for about 5 years.... | 21:03 |
ikonia | Spaghetti-code: no, that won't be supported currently | 21:03 |
Spaghetti-code | a mirrored stripeset | 21:03 |
hinto | yofel: so just making sure of the convention here | 21:03 |
Spaghetti-code | thats why i currently avoid SSD | 21:03 |
yofel | hinto: ah well, ubuntu is a bit different, but you only have to do a explicit upgrade between releases, not between alphaX/beta/rc/release | 21:04 |
ikonia | is this anything to do with karmic ? | 21:04 |
Spaghetti-code | no but with linux | 21:04 |
BUGabundo | hi | 21:04 |
yofel | hi BUGabundo | 21:04 |
ikonia | Spaghetti-code: ok - this channel is for karmic discussion | 21:04 |
BUGabundo | Spaghetti-code: 4 128SSDs? | 21:04 |
Spaghetti-code | yeah karmic runs on windows | 21:04 |
BUGabundo | send me one | 21:04 |

PROject-Emerald | I updated to 9.10 last night and now my sound is gone. | 21:13 |
PROject-Emerald | anyone? | 21:14 |
yofel | PROject-Emerald: did you check your settings that sound isn't muted somewhere? | 21:15 |
PROject-Emerald | Yep. all good. | 21:16 |
yofel | we had quite some changes regarding pulse | 21:16 |
PROject-Emerald | Any way to fix it? | 21:17 |
yofel | PROject-Emerald: anything in pavucontol? (You might have to install it first) | 21:17 |
PROject-Emerald | Uh, lemme check? o.O | 21:17 |
BUGabundo | hey PROject-Emerald | 21:17 |
PROject-Emerald | ? | 21:17 |
BUGabundo | lets see | 21:17 |
BUGabundo | is it muted? | 21:17 |
PROject-Emerald | Is what muted. | 21:17 |
PROject-Emerald | Everything is unmuted, I just checked. | 21:17 |
BUGabundo | PROject-Emerald: and is the gain hi enough? | 21:18 |
BUGabundo | can you see the bars moving? | 21:19 |
PROject-Emerald | Yep. Everything is max | 21:19 |
BUGabundo | while you play anything | 21:19 |
PROject-Emerald | And the bars are moving. | 21:19 |
BUGabundo | please check the output | 21:19 |
BUGabundo | is it internal? | 21:19 |
PROject-Emerald | yeah | 21:19 |
BUGabundo | ok | 21:19 |
BUGabundo | file a bug | 21:19 |
PROject-Emerald | No way to fix this? | 21:19 |
BUGabundo | and let audio team take a stab at it | 21:19 |
BUGabundo | PROject-Emerald: $ ubuntu-bug alsa-base | 21:20 |
PROject-Emerald | Mk. | 21:20 |
PROject-Emerald | I submitted the bug report; how long until they solve it? -_- | 21:31 |
BUGabundo | eheh | 21:33 |
BUGabundo | depends on dtchen load | 21:33 |
BUGabundo | and free time | 21:33 |
BUGabundo | you can join #ubuntu-audio-help PROject-Emerald, ask him, and wait he comes back | 21:33 |
PROject-Emerald | Ok. Is he like, official? | 21:34 |
tanath | need help. i can't boot. i chrooted to HD from livedisc and installed updates & saw: Cannot determine root device. Assuming /dev/hda1 | 21:35 |
tanath | and, findfs: unable to resolve 'UUID=b9d125d2-f22f-4334-8eac-4d471f93d39a' | 21:35 |
tanath | should be sda1 | 21:35 |
DanaG | try booting with sda1... I've been having initramfs fail to load. | 21:35 |
yofel | tanath: what does 'sudo blkid' show you? | 21:35 |
BUGabundo | PROject-Emerald: yes | 21:36 |
BUGabundo | what ? more UUID probs? | 21:36 |
BUGabundo | oh come on.... | 21:36 |
yofel | tanath: check that the uuid for sda1 is the same that is set for / in /etc/fstab | 21:36 |
yofel | tanath: and also check if grub uses the right uuid | 21:37 |
tanath | yofel: it is, i set it | 21:37 |
yofel | tanath: grub1 or 2? | 21:38 |
tanath | yofel: didn't match before, so i set them all the same, according to ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid/ | 21:38 |
DanaG | I'm having the exact same issue... but only when uefi (grub2) booting. | 21:39 |
bmunger | so is akregator known to be broken? I can't find any bug reports but its not functioning on two test machines in kubuntu karmic | 21:39 |
DanaG | Grub-legacy boots fine. | 21:39 |
tanath | yofel: not sure. whatever karmic is using | 21:39 |
yofel | tanath: if you upgraded from jaunty then you have grub legacy, if you installed karmic then you have grub2 | 21:40 |
tanath | yofel: 0.97-29ubuntu56 | 21:40 |
yofel | that's grub legacy... | 21:40 |
tanath | yofel: upgraded | 21:40 |
tanath | yofel: been upgrading for years :P | 21:40 |
yofel | hm, if you checked that the uuid's are right then it should work... | 21:40 |
tanath | Searching for GRUB installation directory ... found: /boot/grub | 21:41 |
tanath | findfs: unable to resolve 'UUID=b9d125d2-f22f-4334-8eac-4d471f93d39a' | 21:41 |
tanath | Cannot determine root device. Assuming /dev/hda1 | 21:41 |
tanath | This error is probably caused by an invalid /etc/fstab | 21:41 |
yofel | hm... mind to pastebin your fstab? | 21:42 |
Spaghetti-code | tanaka | 21:42 |
yofel | didn't have an error like this yet so I'm not sure where to start looking... | 21:42 |
tanath | http://pastebin.ca/1506141 | 21:42 |
DanaG | Does it boot all the way if you edit the command line to say root=/dev/sda# (insert real number)? | 21:43 |
yofel | tanath: and 'sudo blkid' ? | 21:43 |
DanaG | ... oh, and add rootfstype=ext4 if that's what root is. | 21:43 |
tanath | ok, blkid outside chroot shows sda1's uuid. from in chroot, it doesn't | 21:44 |
tanath | DanaG: i'm using ext3 | 21:44 |
yofel | tanath: you probably didn't bind-mounted /dev into the chroot that's why it doesn't show | 21:45 |
tanath | i did | 21:45 |
tanath | had to to get aptitude to work | 21:45 |
yofel | hm... | 21:45 |
tanath | it shows the other partitions, but not roots | 21:45 |
yofel | tanath: do you use encryption? | 21:46 |
tanath | possibly. i've installed many things over the years | 21:46 |
tanath | but no... i may have had truecrypt or some such installed at one point | 21:46 |
tanath | but not at the moment | 21:46 |
tanath | i looked for and removed anything similar when i found this prob | 21:47 |
yofel | tanath: well, then try to replace UUID=... with /dev/sda1 like DanaG said | 21:47 |
tanath | in fstab? | 21:47 |
yofel | yes | 21:47 |
tanath | and grub? | 21:47 |
yofel | tanath: try update-grub after that | 21:47 |
tanath | ok | 21:47 |
DanaG | If it's anything like my situation, it probably has something to do with failing to load initramfs. | 21:48 |
tanath | same error | 21:48 |
DanaG | "junk in compressed archive" | 21:48 |
yofel | DanaG: he's using grub legacy | 21:48 |
tanath | findfs: unable to resolve 'UUID=/dev/sda1' | 21:48 |
tanath | Cannot determine root device. Assuming /dev/hda1 | 21:48 |
tanath | This error is probably caused by an invalid /etc/fstab | 21:48 |
yofel | tanath: get rid of the UUID= | 21:48 |
yofel | just '/dev/sda1' | 21:49 |
tanath | my bad. looks good now | 21:49 |
tanath | should i try it? | 21:49 |
tanath | gotta reboot | 21:49 |
tanath | i left the swap partition using uuid though | 21:50 |
tanath | not aware of any probs with that | 21:50 |
tanath | should i update grub? | 21:51 |
yofel | tanath: check with 'top' if you have any swap space later for that | 21:51 |
yofel | tanath: yes | 21:51 |
tanath | hm? | 21:51 |
tanath | for grub? | 21:51 |
Spaghetti-code | lspci | 21:51 |
yofel | Spaghetti-code: ? | 21:51 |
yofel | wrong window? :P | 21:51 |
tanath | ok, so i'll reboot now & see if it works | 21:52 |
yofel | tanath: good luck | 21:52 |
tanath | thx | 21:52 |
yofel | 22:48:55 < yofel> tanath: get rid of the UUID= | 21:55 |
yofel | 22:48:55 < yofel> tanath: get rid of the UUID= | 21:55 |
yofel | 22:48:55 < yofel> tanath: get rid of the UUID= | 21:55 |
yofel | uuups... | 21:56 |
yofel | sry | 21:56 |
* BUGabundo helps yofel get reed of the jammed ENTER | 21:56 | |
* yofel thanks BUGabundo | 21:57 | |
BUGabundo | I was slow | 21:58 |
BUGabundo | im lagged :( | 21:58 |
tanath | fail | 22:01 |
yofel | :/ | 22:01 |
tanath | .31 kernels still won't boot, and formerly working .28 kernel hangs after detecting usb game pad | 22:02 |
tanath | .31 kernels hang at a blinking cursor - nothing on screen | 22:04 |
yofel | tanath: gpu? | 22:05 |
tanath | muh? vid card? how would that be a prob? | 22:05 |
tanath | using ati radeon 9800se | 22:05 |
yofel | tanath: well, you say, hand at a blinking cursor... do you get anything before that? no usplash? | 22:06 |
tanath | nope | 22:06 |
tanath | blinks once or twice, then goes to blinking cursor | 22:06 |
yofel | tanath: tried to remove 'quiet splash' from the kernel line in grub? | 22:07 |
tanath | like, screen blanks/blinks | 22:07 |
tanath | yeh | 22:07 |
tanath | er, i think it was 'nosplash' | 22:07 |
yofel | really? the default grub options in ubuntu are 'quiet splash' though | 22:08 |
tanath | i'm not sure right now :-/ | 22:08 |
tanath | my memory's not so good lately | 22:08 |
tanath | but regardless, it hangs before getting to the splash screen anyway | 22:08 |
tanath | the .28 kernels are hanging a bit later | 22:09 |
yofel | tanath: well yeah, but it should at least tell you *something* if you remove quiet from the boot line | 22:09 |
billybigrigger | BUGabundo, did you receive those burgers i emailed you last night? i hope the didn't go bad | 22:10 |
billybigrigger | :P | 22:10 |
tanath | yofel: well, i'll try again | 22:11 |
tanath | brb | 22:11 |
BUGabundo | billybigrigger: did not! | 22:11 |
BUGabundo | that's why I only had soup tonight | 22:11 |
BUGabundo | damn you !! :o | 22:11 |
billybigrigger | relay server somewhere must have snagged em | 22:11 |
BUGabundo | I bet | 22:11 |
billybigrigger | maybe it didn't make it past portugese boarder patrol | 22:11 |
BUGabundo | though it was _spam_ and not real meet | 22:11 |
billybigrigger | oh my, that's a terrible joke BUGabundo haha | 22:11 |
billybigrigger | haha actually pretty good, +1 for you | 22:12 |
Hootch | hi, I'm right here for ask for bugs with alpha3 9,10? | 22:15 |
yofel | Hootch: well, this is the karmic support channel, so yes | 22:16 |
Hootch | ok i tried to install 9.10. The setup is broken at 82%, task "Searching, Index Mirrorserver" .. my system is frozen during this step. (Virtualbox) | 22:18 |
Hootch | 9.10 alpha 3 | 22:19 |
BUGabundo | yofel: support and discution, if you please! :) | 22:19 |
BUGabundo | hmm Hootch I bet it was when it tried to download lang packs | 22:19 |
yofel | BUGabundo: right, support *and* discussion :) | 22:19 |
Hootch | BUGabundo: i cant move the mouse pointer :) | 22:20 |
BUGabundo | FF multisearch discuttion http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2009/07/24/%23ubuntu-mozillateam.txt at 19:30 | 22:21 |
Hootch | BUGabundo: and the status symbol of virtualbox dont show a activation over the the network | 22:21 |
Hootch | activity ... | 22:22 |
DanaG | that's odd... the synaptics driver is ignoring my settings. | 22:23 |
BUGabundo | is horizontal touchpad scroll working ?? | 22:24 |
billybigrigger | Hootch, it has to do with the network, disable your network driver | 22:24 |
DanaG | It was working before... but now it doesn't. | 22:24 |
DanaG | Granted, I'm using a PPA with newer versions of drivers. | 22:24 |
eagles0513875 | hey BUGabundo | 22:25 |
DanaG | oh yeah, another thing for the mozilla team: having the new-tab-as-search be a PLUGIN is evil... it should be a "default preference". | 22:25 |
DanaG | otherwise, it OVERRIDES user preferences. | 22:25 |
tanath | managed to get .28 kernel working.. | 22:25 |
tanath | removing splash made things worse. didn't even get to cursor | 22:26 |
BUGabundo | hey eagles0513875 | 22:26 |
tanath | had to change kernel boot line of .28 kernel from uuid to /dev/sda1 | 22:26 |
BUGabundo | DanaG: saw my link? | 22:26 |
BUGabundo | or my bugs on that? | 22:26 |
DanaG | yeah. | 22:26 |
tanath | then my hibernation was borked, and had to force reboot | 22:26 |
BUGabundo | or blog replies to asac? | 22:27 |
eagles0513875 | hoe goes it BUGabundo | 22:27 |
eagles0513875 | *how | 22:27 |
DanaG | blog, where? | 22:27 |
BUGabundo | DanaG: http://www.asoftsite.org/s9y/index.php?url=archives/162-What-is-this-Multisearch-thing-in-my-Firefox-about.html | 22:27 |
DanaG | Overriding anything == bad. | 22:29 |
DanaG | s/anything/the user/ | 22:32 |
DanaG | Oh yeah, and there wasn't even a CHANGELOG showing that addition, I'm pretty sure. | 22:34 |
yofel | DanaG: there was: * add me001 multisearch feature for karmic alpha3 | 22:34 |
yofel | (from the firefox-3.0 changelog) | 22:35 |
DanaG | odd... I don't see that. | 22:35 |
yofel | DanaG: aptitude changelog firefox - the second newest change | 22:35 |
DanaG | www.csc.calpoly.edu/~dgoyette/changelog.Debian.gz | 22:35 |
DanaG | that's firefox-3.5. | 22:36 |
DanaG | And such a (mis)feature belongs in a separate package. =þ | 22:36 |
yofel | DanaG: we're talking about 3.0 here, 3.5 takes the additions from 3.0 | 22:36 |
* DanaG purges firefox-3.0 package. | 22:37 | |
yofel | DanaG: if you still can't find it: http://pastebin.com/f666a3cab line 23 | 22:37 |
DanaG | I found it in firefox-3.0. | 22:37 |
BUGabundo | aptitude change log?!? | 22:38 |
BUGabundo | does that work? wo | 22:38 |
yofel | I would purge firefox-3.0 but that breaks the sun-java6-plugin -.- | 22:38 |
DanaG | oh, and what does ubufox do> | 22:38 |
DanaG | ? | 22:38 |
BUGabundo | DanaG: you can't | 22:39 |
BUGabundo | it will drag ALL FFs | 22:39 |
yofel | BUGabundo: it works a while after the package has been published, if it's too new then changelogs.ubuntu.com isn't synced and you get a 404 :( | 22:39 |
yofel | that's why I now subscribed karmic-changes too... | 22:39 |
BUGabundo | DanaG: integration with Desktop | 22:39 |
BUGabundo | I used to get apt-listchanges | 22:40 |
BUGabundo | but now my postifix is broken | 22:40 |

BUGabundo | Lademord: galternatives | 22:41 |
BUGabundo | or System->prefe.->Prefered apps | 22:41 |
BUGabundo | why? | 22:43 |
Lademord | BUGabundo what's galternatives? | 22:43 |
BUGabundo | if pages don't work, then its there fault | 22:44 |
BUGabundo | they should check engine not browsers | 22:44 |
BUGabundo | and btw. wfm | 22:44 |
Lademord | because stuff like Facebook toolbar-chat is broken because it's not recognizing Shiretoko | 22:44 |
