bdmurrayl3dx: I'm not quite sure how to calculate variance but this http://www.ajdesigner.com/phpstatistics/variance_sample.php returns 5 also00:06
bdmurrayl3dx: if it is a bug it's likely an upstream bug00:10
l3dxbdmurray: ok00:10
l3dxI was just excited to find something I possibly could "contribute" to :P00:10
bdmurraywell, there is some research that could be done whether it be communicating with the reporter or trying to recreate it on karmic00:11

Guest66297Hello guys, I was wondering if any one has experienced the same issue as myself, I have an Dell Inspiron 630M (Intel 915 chipset/GMA900 graphics) laptop that will not boot the Alpha 3 of Karmick12:26
Guest66297the live cd starts I hear the ubuntu start theme but the panels at the top and bottom of the screen keep flashing every 5-10 seconds12:27
BUGabundohi Guest66297. you are asking on the wrong channel12:27
BUGabundoGuest66297: #ubuntu-bugs is meant for bug triaging not support12:28
BUGabundoplease visit #ubuntu for jaunty or previous versions, or #ubuntu+1 for karmic12:28
Guest66297I wanted to report for others also12:28
Guest66297if it is common12:28
Guest66297will try Karmic then12:28
BUGabundook Guest66297. np12:29

ubot4Launchpad bug 402982 in linux "Kernel mode switching causes frequent screen flickering with intel video card (not present with the same packages and kernel 2.6.30)" [Undecided,New]15:37
Le-Chuck_ITAcould someone please triage?15:37
yofelLe-Chuck_ITA: next time you report a bug please use 'ubuntu-bug <package>' - then apport will add some information that might be relevant ;)16:28
Le-Chuck_ITAyofel: I could not because of the flickering!16:28
Le-Chuck_ITAbut yes I have to learn to use it regularly, anyways16:29
Le-Chuck_ITAthe only time I used it, it was absolutely unneeded :)16:29
yofelLe-Chuck_ITA: you can also use ubuntu-bug from a tty, save the report into a file and then submit the report from somewhere else, apport works over 'ssh -X' as well16:32
Le-Chuck_ITAyofel: did not know, thanks!16:32
Le-Chuck_ITAthat seems much more hassle-free16:32
Le-Chuck_ITAin my case, yofel, a reboot with the old kernel is sufficient16:33
Le-Chuck_ITAyofel: you suggested me to add  i915.modeset=0 didn't you?16:34
Le-Chuck_ITAJust curious about the fact that the kernel says "unrecognised command line argument" so who is reading that? Xorg?16:35
yofelnot sure, I just know that's how kms is disabled, but not how that is actually done16:38
Le-Chuck_ITAyofel: I'd like to be sure some developer acks the problem soon or later in karmic, even if maybe it's difficult to solve (but we would be still in time for creating a blacklist for kms)16:39
Le-Chuck_ITAso I milestoned the bug, is this enough or may it be noticed too late?16:40
Le-Chuck_ITAOr maybe the kernel developers try to look at all bugs by default?16:40
yofelI'm not very familiar with how the kernel team works, maybe somebody else can answer you that16:42
Le-Chuck_ITAhmm, I will retry on #ubuntu-kernel but it seems like they are excessively busy16:42
Le-Chuck_ITAgiven the number of high priority bugs in linux in ubuntu I am not surprised at all16:43
Le-Chuck_ITAwill retry in a week16:44
Le-Chuck_ITAyofel if you could triage that I would have finished my work on that bug :)16:45

penguin42can someone help me with bug 404670 please23:22
ubot4Launchpad bug 404670 in pulseaudio "[karmic] Can't reload alsa modules because pulse won't die" [Undecided,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/40467023:22
penguin42Chris is right that it's a client restarting, but if this is gnome-settings-daemon (which it seems to be, together with the volume app) killing the settings daemon is not very nice23:23
* penguin42 isn't too sure what to do next - the change is a pain23:25

bcurtiswxhaha23:46
yofeldajomu: That bug is about an incorrect resolution, not about black screens23:47
yofelalso, can we shift this to #ubuntu or #ubuntu+1 since this is more a support request23:47
bcurtiswxyofel: i don't see a problem staying here since you're the only chatter going on23:49
bcurtiswxwhen any user sees #ubuntu-bugs they immediately think ooh, a bug support channel23:49
yofelyeah, but I don't think everyone from there is here as well, and they might know something too ;)23:50
bcurtiswxwhich is why i think this channel needs a new name or a change of services :P23:50
bcurtiswxyofel, don't disagree at all :D23:50
