[00:24] <bluefoxicy> so
[00:25] <bluefoxicy> I'm assuming 32-bit desktop is better QA'd than 64-bit?
[00:41] <directhex> there are 5x more people running i386 than amd64, so in theory 5x more people reporting bugs running on i386
[00:42] <directhex> question is, how many of those bugs are arch-specific? and how is the split amongst developers
[03:18] <Q-FUNK> 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] <timboy> anyone had issues with the x64 alternate cd's?
[03:32] <timboy> sorry of jaunty
[03:37] <timboy> 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] <timboy> 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] <timboy> is there an issue with the alternative iso?
[03:52] <johanbr> timboy, worked for me
[03:53] <johanbr> you may have issues with your cd reader (or your mirror)
[03:54] <timboy> johanbr, tried two mirrors both checksums fine two different readers both brand new 5+ cd's of each image and 2 thumbsticks
[03:55] <timboy> second time i've had this issue in 2 months two different machines
[03:55] <timboy> only reason for alternate is software raid
[06:03] <jumpkick> does anyone know how to make dpkg-buildpackage not set CFLAGS at all?
[06:41] <kamalnandan> Hi I am facing some problem while running this command on Ubuntu
[06:41] <kamalnandan> "apt-get install devscripts"
[06:43] <kamalnandan> when i use this command, the command window turn blue in color and i see the following text there, and I am not getting what to do next, because it doesnt seem to accept any keyboard input like "Enter" or something..
[06:43] <kamalnandan> I see the foollowing text:
[06:43] <kamalnandan> Package configuration
[06:43] <kamalnandan> any clue guys?
[07:52] <Hobbsee> kamalnandan: a debconf prompt?  try hitting tab before hitting enter
[10:30] <james_w> apw: responsiveness under IO load seems to have dropped again a little with 2.6.31-3.19, do you see the same thing?
[10:32] <YokoZar> Hey what happened to the guest account in Karmic?
[10:33] <james_w> the new gdm made the old way not work I believe
[10:33] <james_w> or perhaps it's just that the new gdm doesn't have the changes to expose the guest account in fusa
[10:35] <YokoZar> Makes sense
[10:55] <apw> 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] <apw> actually it was one of -3 or -4 that i was suspicious of ... i wasn;t paying 100% attention
[10:56] <james_w> I'll try -4
[10:57] <apw> 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.
[19:24] <timboy> 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] <timboy> if I slap in an nvidia card it boots fine. but onboard is crap. *HATING intel right now
[19:46] <dtchen> cody-somerville: please file a bug report against alsa-lib (tentatively) with a precise description, including versions, of the involved software.
[19:52] <timboy> I don't know any more than that. how can I file a bug?
[19:53] <dtchen> timboy: tried disabling KMS?
[19:54] <timboy> how do I do that?
[20:01] <timboy> dtchen, ^^
[20:03] <dtchen> timboy: see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/KernelModeSetting. you can use =0 to disable.
[20:47] <Kovert> can I get help with an issue I am having as I tried to get to Alpha 3 http://pastebin.com/d6e5674d1
[20:48] <timboy> did you sudo apt-get -f install?
[20:49] <Kovert> yes
[20:50] <Kovert> timboy: do you want the output of that
[20:50] <timboy> nope i've got to go. would probably help someone else help u though.

[22:25] <stoner> i guess not!!!!! :(
[23:39] <TwoToneSpirit> I'm just learning Python.  Can anybody point to a good introductory page on writing GUI programs for Ubuntu using Python?
[23:41] <Shane_Fagan> TwoToneSpirit: This isnt a development support channel. Its here for talking about developing ubuntu. That being said have a look here http://www.pygtk.org/pygtk2tutorial/index.html
[23:41] <Shane_Fagan> Its an old one but there is a lot of good topics covered
[23:41] <TwoToneSpirit> Shane_Fagan: Where is the development support channel?  Thank you for the link :-)
[23:42] <Shane_Fagan> TwoToneSpirit: try #python
[23:42] <TwoToneSpirit> Shane_Fagan: Yeah, I'm in #python, but since it was ubuntu specific, I thought I'd ask here since my long-term goal is to be able to help you all.
[23:43] <Shane_Fagan> The more the merrier
