[00:24] so [00:25] I'm assuming 32-bit desktop is better QA'd than 64-bit? [00:41] there are 5x more people running i386 than amd64, so in theory 5x more people reporting bugs running on i386 [00:42] question is, how many of those bugs are arch-specific? and how is the split amongst developers === cprov-afk is now known as cprov === OldSchool is now known as vorian [03:18] howdy! one question about Apport and ufw hooks: is the usage of debian/local/* as the place to put ubuntu-specific packaging elements documented somewhere? [03:32] anyone had issues with the x64 alternate cd's? [03:32] sorry of jaunty [03:37] I've downloaded the cd's twice burned multiple times from different pc's and put on a thumbstick and still having issues! different files are corrupt every time. also used different cd readers. [03:37] if I use the mini cd it works fine but I don't want to use the mini cd and download the whole distribution because internet is slooooow [03:46] is there an issue with the alternative iso? [03:52] timboy, worked for me [03:53] you may have issues with your cd reader (or your mirror) [03:54] johanbr, tried two mirrors both checksums fine two different readers both brand new 5+ cd's of each image and 2 thumbsticks [03:55] second time i've had this issue in 2 months two different machines [03:55] only reason for alternate is software raid [06:03] does anyone know how to make dpkg-buildpackage not set CFLAGS at all?

[10:32] Hey what happened to the guest account in Karmic? [10:33] the new gdm made the old way not work I believe [10:33] or perhaps it's just that the new gdm doesn't have the changes to expose the guest account in fusa [10:35] Makes sense [10:55] james_w, i think i didn't notice a change till i got -4, and i note i got my loadave values back at the same time [10:56] actually it was one of -3 or -4 that i was suspicious of ... i wasn;t paying 100% attention [10:56] I'll try -4 [10:57] i only really get hurt by it when i build kernels, and i don't do that on my interactive machine regularly enough to know for sure. === cprov is now known as cprov-afk === kapipi is now known as kapibara === shtylman_ is now known as shtylman === timboy_away is now known as timboy [19:24] there are major issues with intel gma x4500 series. in jaunty no acceleration support and in karmic alpha 3 won't even boot to gnome. dumps me at 1.646916 ---[ end trace aa828b042a8fcdcc4 ]--- [19:25] if I slap in an nvidia card it boots fine. but onboard is crap. *HATING intel right now [19:46] cody-somerville: please file a bug report against alsa-lib (tentatively) with a precise description, including versions, of the involved software.
