connex | Hi, I need help with 173 nvidia drives. | 10:38 |
yofel | hi connex, what's broken? | 10:42 |
connex | There is no suitable kernel module for nvidia | 10:44 |
yofel | ok, from the beginning. You installed the 173 driver, restarted, and X failed to load and the log says the module can't get loaded? | 10:46 |
connex | yes | 10:46 |
yofel | connex: then try to reinstall the driver and check if you get any dkms errors | 10:46 |
connex | i did, no errors | 10:47 |
yofel | you got the kernel headers installed? | 10:47 |
connex | how do i check? | 10:47 |
yofel | type in a terminal: 'apt-cache policy linux-headers-$(uname -r)' | 10:48 |
yofel | and check if 'installed' tells you the version and not (none) | 10:48 |
connex | it tells the version | 10:49 |
yofel | hm, does 'sudo modprobe nvidia' give you an error? | 10:50 |
connex | it says not found, i'll apt-get intall nvidia-glx-173 and try right? | 10:50 |
yofel | well, you should have that installed already | 10:51 |
connex | the only warning i get during intall is | 10:51 |
connex | obsolete option --print-installation-architecture, please use --print-architecture instead | 10:52 |
yofel | ah, I've got that too, ignore it | 10:53 |
connex | and i have a module called nvidiafb | 10:53 |
connex | which loads i guess | 10:53 |
yofel | connex: just to make sure again, you _do_ have nvidia-glx-173 installed | 10:53 |
connex | yes | 10:53 |
yofel | connex: the nvidiafb module *should* be blacklisted | 10:53 |
yofel | you can't use it with the glx driver | 10:54 |
yofel | you can check that in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-framebuffer.conf | 10:54 |
connex | ok, there is no nvidia driver | 10:55 |
connex | only nvidia-agp and nvidiafb | 10:55 |
yofel | in the blacklist file yes, that's how it should be | 10:56 |
yofel | ok then | 10:56 |
yofel | do you have a folder in /usr/src called nvidia-173.14.16 ? | 10:56 |
connex | yes | 10:57 |
Severian | Howdy. Bug 404451 says jfs is no longer built into the kernel. I believe I found another problem that could have been caused by this. Is there a reason jfs was moved out of the kernel? | 10:57 |
ubottu | Launchpad bug 404451 in linux "JFS no longer built into the default kernel" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/404451 | 10:57 |
yofel | good, you are running the kernel that you want to use the driver on? | 10:57 |
connex | it's the only one i have so i guess yes | 10:57 |
yofel | good, then run the following commands please: | 10:58 |
yofel | 'sudo dkms remove -k $(uname -r) -m nvidia -v 173.14.16' | 10:58 |
yofel | 'sudo dkms build -k $(uname -r) -m nvidia -v 173.14.16' | 10:59 |
yofel | 'sudo dkms install -k $(uname -r) -m nvidia -v 173.14.16' | 10:59 |
yofel | any errors? | 10:59 |
connex | on the remove it says there is no instance of nvidia 173.14.16 | 11:00 |
yofel | that's ok, since you didn't have one | 11:00 |
connex | i got an error | 11:01 |
connex | "Error! Bad retirm status for module build on kernel 2.6.31-3-generic i686 | 11:02 |
connex | s/retirm/return | 11:02 |
yofel | good, failure found, let me try here | 11:04 |
connex | there are a lot of c errors in the make.log | 11:05 |
yofel | yup, build failed here too o.O | 11:05 |
connex | so, what are we going to do? install an older kernel? | 11:08 |
yofel | connex: you'll have to, or wait till the new driver is available in karmic - see bug 398893 | 11:09 |

connex | yofel, as i recall, it happened even with older kernels | 11:10 |
yofel | well, there was a build failure bug for 2.6.30 too | 11:10 |
connex | ok, which and how do i get the kernel | 11:11 |
yofel | connex: you could try an older mainline kernel build | 11:11 |
connex | how | 11:11 |
yofel | http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ | 11:11 |
connex | how do i install them? manually? | 11:12 |
yofel | you'll need the 'hearders...i386' 'headers...all' and 'image...i386' | 11:12 |
yofel | connex: yes | 11:12 |
connex | isnt' there an apt-get something for this? | 11:12 |
yofel | connex: these builds aren't meant to be used by a wide audience so it doesn't support apt | 11:13 |
connex | so which one do you suggest | 11:14 |
alteregoa | i found a new kernel | 11:14 |
yofel | connex: since there was a build failure reported with 2.6.30 too, I would try 2.6.29.6 | 11:15 |
connex | ok so what are the steps, to this? | 11:16 |
yofel | connex: download the files I told you (into a separate folder would be best) first | 11:18 |
yofel | then change into that folder in a terminal and run 'sudo dpkg -i *.deb' . That will install all kernel files. | 11:19 |
yofel | and again: only install the files for your architecture ;) | 11:20 |
connex | there are newer kernels then 2.6.29 like 2.6.29.6 | 11:20 |
alteregoa | is there a realtime kernel patch for koalic karmac? | 11:20 |
yofel | connex: thats why I suggested 2.6.29.6 . It contains a few bugfixes | 11:21 |
alteregoa | never trust a klingon | 11:29 |
alteregoa | why e4defrag is removed by default? | 11:29 |
yofel | alteregoa: e4defrag isn't removed, it's not yet in | 11:30 |
alteregoa | its in e2fsprogs or something | 11:30 |
alteregoa | i download the tarball and build a deb package for myself | 11:31 |
yofel | alteregoa: yes, it's in upstream e2fsprogs, but the ubuntu version isn't new enough | 11:31 |
yofel | alteregoa: you can check bug 321528 if you want | 11:35 |

connex | yofel, can you repeat the files required? | 11:36 |
yofel | but afaik e4defrag isn't yet in a released version of e2fsprogs, only in the development version | 11:36 |
yofel | connex: you need linux-headers-2.6.29-02062906-generic_2.6.29-02062906_i386.deb linux-headers-2.6.29-02062906_2.6.29-02062906_all.deb and linux-image-2.6.29-02062906-generic_2.6.29-02062906_i386.deb | 11:37 |
alteregoa | it would be nice to add a crond, check the fs for fragmenting, after a trigger of like 20 percent defrag it online | 11:38 |
alteregoa | how can i trace the programs and libs being loaded during startup? | 11:38 |
yofel | alteregoa: I'm not sure what you mean by trace, but if you want a graph of your boot then check out bootchart | 11:40 |
alteregoa | i wanna know the loaded libaries during startup | 11:40 |
alteregoa | then i compress it with upx | 11:41 |
yofel | alteregoa: and my expirience with e4defrag (built from source) is: Although it didn' break anything and seems to work, it doesn't yet support converted ext3 filesystems | 11:41 |
Severian | How long should I wait after asking a question before repeating it if there was no response? I am trying to decide what to do about a bug in the installer. | 11:41 |
yofel | Severian: you could try to bug the kernel folks directly in #ubuntu-kernel | 11:42 |
yofel | (regarding your question from an hour ago) | 11:42 |
Severian | yofel, thanks. I'll try there. Yes, about that question. | 11:43 |
connex | yofel, Using the older kernel fixed my sound problem, now all i have to check is if nvidia is working. | 11:50 |
=== baffle_ is now known as baffle | ||
zniavre_ | connex, if you are using 173.14.xx you should try nvidia.com driver supply they updated 173.14.20 fot recent kernel | 11:53 |

connex | zniavre_, will envy get the correct drivers for me? | 12:00 |
zniavre_ | i do not know nothing about envy script | 12:01 |
yofel | hn, envy should just try to install the repos drivers, so i don't think that would help | 12:01 |
zniavre_ | http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_173.14.20.html | 12:02 |
yofel | and although the drivers from the nvidia site might help, they are completely unsupported here. | 12:02 |
zniavre_ | but they work ... | 12:02 |
yofel | zniavre_: yes, and since apt doesn't know about them you might get a messed up system | 12:03 |

gnu-dio | so I installed karmic on my main machine, and I let it install grub. Grub didn't find and add the XP install. NP, I thought, and went to edit the grub menu.lst. Couldn't find it. appears to be a new grub I've never seen. any pointers? | 12:35 |
yofel | !grub2 | gnu-dio | 12:36 |
ubottu | gnu-dio: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 12:36 |
yofel | gnu-dio: see 'dual-booting' | 12:36 |
gnu-dio | thanks | 12:36 |
gnu-dio | perfect | 12:36 |
gnu-dio | wow, grub2 is WAY more complex... | 12:47 |
=== repete is now known as rep-eat | ||
kayess | yofel, is grub 2 also the place I need to be looking at to understand why the new karmic kernel won't mount my main disk (uses encryption on lvm2) | 13:02 |
yofel | kayess: might be, but I don't know much about lvm and nothing about encryption, sry | 13:05 |
kayess | Is grub 2 before or after the kernel loads? I guess if it's before then it won't be related (the old Jaunty kernel mounts the disk and boots fine) | 13:07 |
yofel | kayess: it's obviously before, since it's grub that loads the kernel ;) | 13:08 |
ripps | Hmm... mobile-broadband-provider-info wants to remove libmbca0, is that okay? | 13:09 |
kayess | yofel: that just dawned on me :) The broken laptop is still running the old grub anyway | 13:09 |
gnu-dio | yofel, thanks again. 100% exactly what I needed. and a whole bunch of education on grub2 on the side ;) | 13:10 |
=== rep-eat is now known as repete | ||

kayess | yofel: The instructions on that grub page you linked to. Shouldn't the sudo grub install line be "sudo grub install /dev/sda" -- assuming that was the boot disk identified in the previous step? | 13:21 |
fosco_ | hi | 13:25 |
fosco_ | does anyone know how to use grub2 themes? | 13:25 |
yofel | fosco_: theming isn't yet implemented in the (ubuntu?) grub2 version afaik, but you might find something useful on the wiki page | 13:26 |
yofel | !grub2 | 13:26 |
ubottu | GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 13:26 |
fosco_ | ok, let's read :) | 13:27 |
gnu-dio | http://members.iinet.net/~herman546/p20/GRUB2%20Splashimages.html | 13:27 |
gnu-dio | if you start reading on yofel's you can end up at mine | 13:27 |
gnu-dio | I haven't tried that yet | 13:28 |
fosco_ | i'm trying to use this theme, but i think jaunty's grub is not ready for that | 13:33 |
fosco_ | http://grub.gibibit.com/Theme_winter_menu.jpg | 13:33 |
gnu-dio | that is pretty | 13:33 |
fosco_ | yep | 13:35 |
gnu-dio | but I believe yofel, and you, are right. the version currently being used with karmic isn't ready for that | 13:35 |
fosco_ | but i think it uses a mod that grub 1.96 supplied with jaunty hasn't | 13:35 |
gnu-dio | I'm about to try the suggestions on that link i posted | 13:35 |
alteregoa | hi | 13:38 |
alteregoa | something with the network manager is messed up | 13:38 |
gnu-dio | I'd gotten really comfy editing my menu.lst files, and now they have to go and mess with me with all these new options.... | 13:39 |
alteregoa | i it doesnt resolve dhcp anymore | 13:39 |
gnu-dio | mine seems to be working, but other than that I'm unlikely to be any help. I just installed karmic for the first time yesterday | 13:50 |
richardcavell | I just upgraded my MacBook from 2.6.31-4 to 2.6.31-5. Now my networking is completely broken (wired and wireless). I kept the old kernel and can select it in GRUB2, and it doesn't fix networking. Yet I can network fine from OS X. Any ideas? | 13:50 |
gnu-dio | richardcavell sounds like a similar issue to what happened to alteregoa, who was asking for help a minute ago | 13:51 |
yofel | richardcavell: there was a network-manager update right now too, maybe that's broken? | 13:51 |
yofel | (I haven't installed it yet) | 13:51 |
gnu-dio | installing all updates right now | 13:51 |
gnomefreak | oh good question le tme check on n-m | 13:51 |
gnu-dio | so if that breaks it i'll now in a minute | 13:51 |
gnomefreak | i doubt ill get an answer soon but asked the maintainer | 13:51 |
AlanBell | my dhcp just broke | 13:51 |
AlanBell | sudo dhclient returns a permission error | 13:51 |
gnu-dio | looks like a common problem all of a sudden | 13:51 |
richardcavell_ | sorry guys got disconnected there. I can't network from Linux at all any more (I'm in OS X right now). After upgrading my kernel from 2.6.31-4 to 2.6.31-5, my wired and wireless networking is kaput. Any ideas? | 13:51 |
gnu-dio | that's 3 people with similar symptoms for the last 3 questions | 13:51 |
AlanBell | yup. friend of mine also dropped out, that was on a wired connection. mine is wireless | 13:51 |
yofel | richardcavell_: 14:43:51 < yofel> richardcavell: there was a network-manager update right now too, maybe that's broken? | 13:51 |
gnu-dio | is everyone's symptoms tied to updating? | 13:51 |
yofel | richardcavell_: I'm running 31-5 with the old NM fine | 13:51 |
AlanBell | fwiw my card is using the rt2500PCI driver, but I don't think it is hardware specific | 13:52 |
richardcavell_ | yofel: what was the package name? | 13:52 |
richardcavell_ | AlanBell: I have an atheros 9k | 13:52 |
gnomefreak | gnu-dio: im waiting to asac to get back to me on n-m | 13:52 |
gnomefreak | everyone with n-m issues is the version you are using 0.7.1.git.5.272c6a626-0ubuntu1? | 13:53 |
yofel | richardcavell_: there were updates for network-manager and libnm-* I think | 13:53 |
richardcavell_ | gnomefreak: is that the one that appeared in Update Manager over the last 24 hours? If so, then yes | 13:53 |
gnomefreak | yofel: correct | 13:53 |
gnomefreak | richardcavell_: there could have been 2 in last 24 hours so i need full version | 13:54 |
gnomefreak | >=2 | 13:54 |
penguin42 | the update to libc has had a fun effect on python | 13:54 |
richardcavell_ | gnomefreak: I'm booted into OS X right now. Do you want me to reboot into Linux? | 13:54 |
gnomefreak | hes not at PC atm so he cant tell me :) | 13:54 |
AlanBell | on the plus side the update has fixed 3g networking with the icon225 dongle hso driver | 13:54 |
richardcavell_ | there were two updates to libc in the last 24 hours, by the way | 13:54 |
gnomefreak | 1st had a problem 2nd fixed it. thats why i want to know version of n-m :) | 13:55 |
gnomefreak | everyone else besides richardcavell_ with n-m problems please give me broken version | 13:55 |
penguin42 | gnomefreak: It's the fact it went to 2.10.1 that confused a comparison in a python library that was seeing if it had a version of at least 2.4 | 13:55 |
gnomefreak | penguin42: ah | 13:56 |
gnomefreak | i see other than flashgot im not getting anything done without asac here grrr | 13:57 |
gnomefreak | and PPA is busy it seems | 13:57 |
richardcavell_ | I have another symptom, by the way. I have two wireless connections set up. First is at home to a router. Second is to my University. Because I was looking at 78 megs of updates today, I drove into Uni and sat in my car downloading (at high bandwidth). I then applied all updates and drove home. When I got home it wouldn't connect to my home router. But here's something weird - when I... | 13:57 |
richardcavell_ | ...look in Network Connections, it says the last time it connected to my Uni was 5 days ago (which indeed it did). It doesn't seem to 'remember' that it connected about 2 hours ago. | 13:57 |
gnu-dio | gnomefreak: so the update I'm doing right now might skip a broken version? lucky 4 me :) | 13:57 |
gnomefreak | gnu-dio: i dont know i need old version + newversion | 13:58 |
AlanBell | about says 0.7.1 | 13:58 |
gnomefreak | AlanBell: apt-cache policy network-manager | 13:58 |
gnomefreak | dont paste it in here use pastebin | 13:58 |
AlanBell | yeah, realised when I got back you wanted that . . . brb . . . | 13:58 |
gnomefreak | i have a feeling there isnt one between 0.7 and 0.7-git.. | 13:59 |
gnomefreak | its the git info that is important | 13:59 |
gnomefreak | git.5.272c6a626 | 13:59 |
gnu-dio | that is the candidate version I'm upgrading to now | 14:00 |
AlanBell | yes, it is git.5.272c6a626 | 14:00 |
gnomefreak | thanks | 14:01 |
AlanBell | I updated about 30 minutes ago and rebooted | 14:02 |
richardcavell_ | Is someone here working on a fix? | 14:03 |
AlanBell | is there anything more we can do to diagnose what the problem is, or is it sufficiently understood? | 14:04 |
TheOpenSourcerer | I can upload dmesg etc. | 14:23 |
TylerRichard | and no to the bug its not on launchpad | 14:23 |
richardcavell_ | Oh, gnomefreak, Tyler's message just reminded me - I use DHCP to connect to my router. It can't connect. But when I tried to give it a fixed IP it was able to at least see the router. Maybe it's a DHCP problem? | 14:23 |
TylerRichard | it is | 14:23 |
AlanBell | TheOpenSourcerer: ubuntu-bug network-manager | 14:23 |

richardcavell_ | so is the current Karmic network manager not from git? | 14:26 |
gnomefreak | richardcavell_: it is but they come out nightly/daily | 14:26 |
richardcavell_ | so you're suggesting it might be fixed by tomorrow? | 14:26 |

ubottu | Launchpad bug 408862 in network-manager "dhcp and networking failure in karmic" [Undecided,New] | 14:33 |
mac_v | anyone has tried gnome 3.0 ? | 14:33 |
yofel | popey: running 'apport-collect <bugnumber>' would have been easier ;) | 14:33 |
gnomefreak | but honestly any files you can. see 408861 for the files apport uploaded | 14:33 |
popey | yofel: and how exactly would one do that on a machine with no network? | 14:33 |
gnomefreak | good point | 14:33 |
richardcavell | gnomefreak: I'm going to try to give myself an assigned IP from the router instead of connecting via DHCP to see if that fixes it | 14:33 |
stevepearce | small question, I have just installed 9.10 via the daily build 02/08/2009. After applying upgrades (just now) and rebooting, I have lost all networking (both wired and wireless), are the bugs mentioned above related? | 14:33 |
yofel | popey: good point -.- | 14:33 |
popey | sheesh | 14:34 |
gnomefreak | stevepearce: we know | 14:34 |
richardcavell | stevepearce: add yourself to the me-too list mate | 14:34 |
stevepearce | ok, thanks | 14:34 |
gnomefreak | stevepearce: are you on the PC with no connection? | 14:34 |
stevepearce | yes | 14:34 |
gnomefreak | stevepearce: cool than use apport-collect 408862 | 14:34 |
popey | hang on | 14:34 |
gnomefreak | if its the broken connection PC | 14:34 |
popey | stevepearce: are you _in_ karmic right now? | 14:34 |
stevepearce | not on this irc box, it's jaunty. The laptop I mentioned running karmic is sitting next to me | 14:35 |
mac_v | gnomefreak: how will he send it ? ;) with no connection ;p | 14:35 |
popey | right | 14:35 |
popey | again, no point asking people to do stuff when they have broken network | 14:35 |
popey | wakey wakey people | 14:35 |
* penguin42 yawns | 14:35 | |
AlanBell | anything more useful I can do with my connected buggy box? | 14:35 |
stevepearce | mac_v, that's the thing :) | 14:35 |
gnomefreak | mac_v: he said he was on system with the connection issue | 14:36 |
popey | AlanBell: you could try reverting the packages that came in most recently | 14:36 |
gnomefreak | .:09:34:16:. < gnomefreak > stevepearce: are you on the PC with no connection? | 14:36 |
gnomefreak | .:09:34:21:. < stevepearce > yes | 14:36 |
popey | not a clear question | 14:36 |
stevepearce | gnomefreak, sorry | 14:36 |
popey | anyway | 14:36 |
AlanBell | popey: ok, how do I revert a package? (been wondering about that for a while) | 14:37 |
popey | AlanBell: can you look in /var/cache/apt/archives and look at the most recent updates, probably network-manager, libnm and a couple of other bits.. | 14:37 |
mac_v | !downgrade | 14:37 |
ubottu | Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system. | 14:37 |
popey | not useful mac_v | 14:37 |
mac_v | popey: no i was searching for the link... there is a wiki how to revert a package | 14:38 |
penguin42 | if you have the old package you can install it with dpkg -i, if it's still in the rpo you can do an apt-get install packagename=version I think | 14:38 |
popey | AlanBell: you can test by grabbing the debs from the archive and manually dpkg them in or there is a way to force it with apt | 14:38 |
popey | thats it | 14:38 |
penguin42 | the common gotcha however is that some other package may depend on the newer other thing you installed so you often have to take a few others back as well | 14:38 |
hggdh | anyone aware of apparmor messing up with (at least) network setup? | 14:38 |
AlanBell | I only have the new version in the cache | 14:39 |
popey | yes, so you will need to go get the older one | 14:39 |
popey | if you apt-cache show network-manager you can get the url from where it came | 14:39 |
gnomefreak | hggdh: are you sure its apparmor? | 14:39 |
popey | pool/main/n/network-manager/network-manager_0.7.1-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb for example on my desktop | 14:39 |
popey | just go to the repo http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool.... etc | 14:39 |
BluesKaj | Howdy folks | 14:39 |
hggdh | gnomefreak, yes. sudo service apparmor stop allowed me to connect | 14:39 |
popey | and look for the version of those packages thats one older than the one you have | 14:39 |
gnomefreak | everyone care to try that? | 14:40 |
* popey pops upstairs to try | 14:40 | |
TylerRichard | can anyone get to the packages.ubuntu.com server? I get a server down error? | 14:41 |
hggdh | oh, so it is already known... | 14:41 |
popey | that did it | 14:41 |
gnomefreak | hggdh: oh yeah non stop this morning | 14:41 |
gnu-dio | hggdh: most likely, if your issue overlaps everyone elses | 14:41 |
popey | fix0r3d for me | 14:41 |
stevepearce | gdgd, I have eth0 networking again | 14:42 |
stevepearce | thanks | 14:42 |
popey | (i am now talking to you from that machine) | 14:42 |
popey | nice one hggdh | 14:42 |
gnu-dio | that's proof | 14:42 |
penguin42 | yeh I can't get to packages either | 14:42 |
* gnu-dio bows to hggdh | 14:42 | |
gnomefreak | i commented ont he bug about it | 14:42 |
AlanBell | sudo service apparmor stop | 14:42 |
TylerRichard | hggdh: fixed mine | 14:42 |
popey | so AlanBell just change your bug from network-manager to apparmor | 14:42 |
gnu-dio | ok, now that we have a fix to try, I'm rebooting the updates. hope to be back soon ;) | 14:43 |
* gnomefreak too be back in a few | 14:43 | |
hggdh | cool. I have not yet had time to look at apparmor profiles, though | 14:45 |
hggdh | any bug opened on it? | 14:45 |

TylerRichard | BluesKaj: its not netman its aparmor actualy dhcp would fail in wicd too | 14:50 |
AlanBell | it is in apparmor now | 14:50 |
popey | oo look, a new apparmor package :) | 14:50 |
gnu-dio | ok, I installed all current updates, and rebooted fine without losing networking | 14:50 |
popey | gnu-dio: you probably got the new apparmor | 14:50 |
popey | skipping the duff one | 14:50 |
gnu-dio | lucky me | 14:50 |
gnu-dio | I did see apparmor on the list of 7 updates I did the instant before booting | 14:51 |
BluesKaj | TylerRichard, I saw on a latest update using aptitude that apparmor was held back | 14:51 |
AlanBell | upgrading now | 14:52 |
AlanBell | yay! connected on reboot | 14:56 |
TylerRichard | AlanBell: good stuff | 14:56 |
AlanBell | kids are happy, playroom can see cbeebies website again | 14:56 |
TylerRichard | hggdh: can we close the bug report? | 14:57 |
hggdh | yeah, already fixed. Now we wait for the new package to hit the repos | 14:57 |
TylerRichard | hggdh: sweet | 14:57 |

hggdh | AlanBell, yes, the update from early this morning had an issue. A new one is being built now | 14:58 |
* richardcavell_ is back | 14:59 | |
richardcavell_ | I just tried to fix my networking by giving myself a static IP (manual rather than DHCP), but it made no difference | 14:59 |
=== richardcavell_ is now known as richardcavell | ||
hggdh | richardcavell_, no, it will not work, since the issue was on apport | 15:00 |
AlanBell | richardcavell: do sudo service apparmor stop | 15:02 |
AlanBell | then sudo apt-get update | 15:02 |
AlanBell | then sudo apt-get upgrade | 15:02 |
richardcavell | AlanBell: Will that fix it? I'm in OS X right now | 15:02 |
AlanBell | and all will be well | 15:02 |
Pici | richardcavell: Well, you'd need to boot to Ubuntu first... | 15:03 |
richardcavell | hggdh: what you said doesn't make sense | 15:03 |
TylerRichard | richardcavell: it works | 15:03 |
AlanBell | maybe a sudo dhclient after stopping apparmor | 15:03 |
richardcavell | Okay you obviously all worked out the problem while I was gone | 15:03 |
richardcavell | Okay Alan, I'm placing my Karmic partition in your hands dude. Here we go. | 15:03 |
hggdh | richardcavell, I found it while still offline, when I tried to tcpdump the connection (I am at a customer, and my connection have been plagued by DHCP issues) | 15:04 |
TylerRichard | quick question has anyone got irc in empathy yet? | 15:04 |
richardcavell | XD I'm in Karmic right now | 15:09 |
gnu-dio | ;) | 15:10 |
TylerRichard | bump: quick question has anyone got irc in empathy yet? | 15:10 |
gnu-dio | hggdh is dog for tracing the issue to apparmor... nobody else was looking anywhere near apparmor | 15:10 |
gnu-dio | lol "gof" | 15:10 |
gnu-dio | god | 15:10 |
gnu-dio | I need to take some typing practice obviously. | 15:11 |
richardcavell | TylerRichard: No | 15:11 |
richardcavell | TylerRichard: Let me know if you find out how to do it | 15:12 |
richardcavell | Now, okay, it was apparmor. But here's the thing: I'm now running without apparmor | 15:12 |
gnu-dio | now update again | 15:13 |
gnu-dio | there is a new apparmor that appears to be working | 15:13 |
gnu-dio | at least it is for me | 15:13 |
BluesKaj | no updates here yet ,North American main server | 15:14 |
AlanBell | TylerRichard: I had irc working in empathy in Jaunty, haven't tried it in Karmic yet | 15:14 |
richardcavell | AlanBell: What sort of account do you add? | 15:15 |
richardcavell | Or how do you get IRC to work? | 15:15 |
TylerRichard | AlanBell: seconded | 15:15 |
AlanBell | IRC | 15:16 |
AlanBell | it is a blue # | 15:16 |
AlanBell | think I had to install an extra package or something to get it | 15:16 |
AlanBell | !info telepathy-idle | 15:18 |

AlanBell | I thought that was going to be installed out of the box in karmic | 15:18 |
TylerRichard | I guess not | 15:19 |
TylerRichard | it should be thoug | 15:19 |
richardcavell | well is that for Empathy ? | 15:19 |
TylerRichard | I can't check im in an upgrade | 15:19 |
richardcavell | ha ha me too | 15:19 |
richardcavell | and at the rate this server's going, I will be all night | 15:20 |
AlanBell | richardcavell: yes, empathy uses telepathy | 15:20 |
richardcavell | AlanBell: Okay | 15:20 |
richardcavell | Is Empathy any good as an IRC chatter? I use xchat | 15:21 |
AlanBell | but a lack of a graphical irc client on the default install would be a bit of a shame | 15:21 |
AlanBell | richardcavell: it isn't great, but it is functional for a newbie | 15:22 |
richardcavell | AlanBell: Jaunty includes xchat-gnome | 15:22 |
richardcavell | I have xchat set up the way I like it anyway. When someone uses my nickname, I get a doorbell sound | 15:22 |

gnu-dio | hmmm there doesn't seem to be a winehq repo for karmic yet.... | 15:23 |
richardcavell | AlanBell: Are you sure? I could have sworn it was installed by default in Jaunty | 15:23 |
AlanBell | pidgin is in by default and that does IRC | 15:24 |
BluesKaj | richardcavell, I admire your ability to withstand the xchat colour scheme. I know it's editable and all but it's pita to get setup right IMO :) | 15:24 |
richardcavell | BluesKaj: I downloaded a theme that replaces the default one | 15:24 |
richardcavell | Funny you should say that because my theme is all blue | 15:24 |
BluesKaj | richardcavell, ok , good move :) | 15:24 |
richardcavell | Everything's white for me except when my nam eis mentioned - then it gets highlighted and I get the doorbell sound | 15:25 |
BluesKaj | I never went far enuff with xchat to care ,cuz knonversation fits my needs and style very well | 15:26 |
BluesKaj | not that i'm really into eye candy , but I draw the line at purply text :) | 15:27 |
TylerRichard | I got it working thanks richardcavell | 15:27 |
=== ripps_ is now known as ripps | ||
ripps | Okay, after some updates and a reboot, things seem to be actually working today. And it doesn't seem mount.ntfs is soaking up all my cpu now (at least for the moment). Still waiting on a wacom tablet that works on boot | 15:30 |
* BluesKaj begins to wonder about the main server...switched to server for Canada, now I'm getting upgrades | 15:30 | |
richardcavell | The Australian servers give me weird errors, so I'm using the main server again | 15:35 |
ripps | Nautilus is still slow as crap though So I'm sticking to thunar | 15:35 |
TylerRichard | after upgrade and reboot dhcp still is non functioning for me | 15:36 |
richardcavell | TylerRichard: Are you using the main server? | 15:36 |
TylerRichard | yep | 15:36 |
TylerRichard | richardcavell: yes i am | 15:37 |
richardcavell | Turning off apparmor was enough to get my DHCP working | 15:38 |
richardcavell | I'm using it right now *shrug* | 15:38 |
gnu-dio | Anyone actually LIKE the ubuntu orange/brown theme? Or does everyone change it first thing like me? | 15:38 |
TylerRichard | ok ill just keep it shut off | 15:38 |
BluesKaj | richardcavell, is apparmor a default daemon in karmic ? | 15:39 |
richardcavell | gnu-dio: Go to bigfoto.com and you can find desktop resolution large photographs | 15:39 |
richardcavell | BluesKaj: Yes | 15:39 |
richardcavell | I have a large image of a firefox | 15:40 |

gnu-dio | richardcavelli: I'm partial to hubble photos from hubblesite.org | 15:40 |
TylerRichard | https://pixelgirlpresents.com has some great stuff too its artsy and retro stuff | 15:41 |
BluesKaj | Irich wonder what the consequences would be if I removed it from /etc/int.d ? | 15:41 |
BluesKaj | err richardcavell | 15:41 |
TylerRichard | BluesKaj: just rename it | 15:41 |
mac_v | has anyone tried gnome 3.0 in Karmic? | 15:41 |
TylerRichard | BluesKaj: it woln't run if u rename it | 15:42 |
richardcavell | BluesKaj: I reckon it would still work | 15:42 |
richardcavell | I mean, I'm running without apparmor right now | 15:42 |
BluesKaj | TylerRichard, ok sounds reasonable | 15:42 |
* BluesKaj renames apparmor to apparmored | 15:43 | |
richardcavell | I'm doing apt-get upgrade and it says network-manager-gnome is being kept back | 15:44 |
richardcavell | I've never seen that before | 15:44 |
richardcavell | What does that mean? | 15:44 |
TylerRichard | it means that theres an apt conflict | 15:44 |
TylerRichard | it can happen on broken package links or if you use apt-get for complicated stuff and upgrades | 15:45 |
richardcavell | well I'm just doing what AlanBell advised | 15:45 |
richardcavell | has the package been held back owing to our recent discovery of a bug? | 15:45 |
TylerRichard | might be | 15:46 |
richardcavell | You know, I decided not to upgrade my computer for a couple of weeks earlier today but I just couldn't resist. I'll trust my first instinct next time. | 15:46 |
penguin42 | hehe | 15:47 |
richardcavell | I decided instead of installing 50 megs every few days, I'll let it just build up over time and hopefully skip a few intermediate steps. | 15:50 |
TylerRichard | we need to put telapathy-idle into the default packages b4 the feature freeze | 15:50 |
TylerRichard | !info telapthy-idle | 15:51 |
ubottu | Package telapthy-idle does not exist in karmic | 15:51 |

richardcavell | Okay I'm trying to upgrade from the main server and it's going ridiculously slowly | 15:52 |
gnu-dio | woot! it finally works! I've been trying to run guild wars in wine/mandriva for a month, and first try in wine 1.01/karmic is success, lol ubuntu rules | 15:54 |
nocturn | Hi | 15:55 |
nocturn | anyone know what the default IRC client in Karmic will be? | 15:55 |
TylerRichard | empathy? | 15:56 |
nocturn | Empathy is replacing pidginm but telepathy-idle is in universe | 15:56 |
nocturn | and not working anyway | 15:56 |
TylerRichard | It seems to work for me | 15:56 |
TylerRichard | its basic but thats fine for what i do | 15:56 |
nocturn | I'm on Karmic Alpha3 with updates | 15:56 |
nocturn | an no connection... | 15:56 |
gnu-dio | I haven't tried empathy yet. I'm kinda partial to pidgin. do people think empathy is better? worth playing with at least? | 15:57 |
nocturn | But still, emapthy with irc is not supported (universe) | 15:57 |
richardcavell | I prefer empathy | 15:57 |
richardcavell | It's pretty simple | 15:57 |
nocturn | gnu-dio: Empathy can do stuff that pidgin can't | 15:57 |
nocturn | voice chat over Jabber | 15:57 |
TylerRichard | it has support for google voip chat and video | 15:57 |
nocturn | desktop charing | 15:57 |
gnu-dio | hmmm | 15:57 |
nocturn | TylerRichard: you don't even need google for that | 15:57 |
nocturn | OpenFire seems to work just fine | 15:58 |
gnu-dio | sounds like I need to set aside some time to look at empathy... | 15:58 |
nocturn | The only caveat is that I cannot get IRC working so far | 15:58 |
penguin42 | Are there any modern irc clients that allow multiple windows rather than purely multiple tabs? I still use ksirc because it lets me do that | 15:59 |
richardcavell | XChat can put each channel or private message in its own window | 15:59 |
nocturn | penguin42: both empathy and pidgin can do that | 15:59 |
itswhatev | penguin42: pidgin can | 15:59 |
gnu-dio | pidgin lets you undock the tabs | 15:59 |
nocturn | it's a setting | 15:59 |
TylerRichard | sudo apt-get install telepathy-idle | 15:59 |
nocturn | and you can always drag the tabs | 15:59 |
nocturn | TylerRichard: I did that | 15:59 |
TylerRichard | did u restart empathy | 16:00 |
penguin42 | maybe I'll look at empathy - I've seen people use pidgin for irc and didn't like it | 16:00 |
nocturn | TylerRichard: yes, even rebooted | 16:00 |
TylerRichard | does it show the sharp symbol and irc in the menu | 16:00 |
nocturn | yes | 16:00 |
nocturn | It says IRC Network error | 16:00 |
TylerRichard | you can;t connect? | 16:00 |
nocturn | no | 16:00 |
TylerRichard | humm | 16:00 |
nocturn | I'm on via Weechat now | 16:00 |
TylerRichard | I'm not sure how to fix that, mine seems to work | 16:01 |
TylerRichard | what server did you pick freenode | 16:01 |
nocturn | Strange... | 16:01 |
nocturn | yes, Freenode | 16:01 |
nocturn | it has presets for FreeNode | 16:02 |
richardcavell | Alright guys I'm off to bed. Thanks for the solution to that networking problem. Make sure you update your bug reports! | 16:02 |
* richardcavell is off to bed | 16:02 | |
Shirotoko | smplayer has a weird vertical refresh :( | 16:02 |
bmunger | nice..newest update broke my ethernet.. cant get an ip now says Open a socket for LPF: Operation not permitted | 16:03 |

TylerRichard | under freenode in account settings click the edit button and move "irc.freenode." up | 16:04 |
nocturn | TylerRichard: same result, even after empathy restart | 16:05 |
Shirotoko | how do i close the cd-tray via command ? | 16:05 |
TylerRichard | don't know what to tell you man | 16:05 |
TylerRichard | sry | 16:05 |
Shirotoko | :D ok i did it | 16:06 |
nocturn | No prob. | 16:06 |
nocturn | Thanks anyway | 16:06 |
gnu-dio | trying to use irc with empathy was a fail for me as well | 16:07 |
gnu-dio | back to pidgin | 16:07 |
bjsnider | Shirotoko, eject /dev/cdrom | 16:11 |
Shirotoko | thx | 16:13 |
Shirotoko | i'm getting tired of this automount thingy | 16:13 |
Shirotoko | usb pendrivers mount ok | 16:24 |
Shirotoko | but cd-rom or usb-hdd doesn't mount Automatcly | 16:24 |
SKB | nothing mounts here | 16:26 |
SKB | automatically | 16:26 |
Shirotoko | i think is because user privileges | 16:26 |
Shirotoko | i added myself to root group but still, things doesn't mount by themselves | 16:27 |
bjsnider | don't add yourself to root's group. that's a security risk | 16:29 |
bjsnider | anyone who cracks your password could gain control over root's files and directories | 16:30 |
Shirotoko | it's ok, i remove myself from there , was only or testing | 16:30 |
bjsnider | the automount issue is known. there wre many people in here yesterday complaining about it | 16:30 |
Shirotoko | i'm currently in admin group only | 16:30 |
Shirotoko | oh ok | 16:30 |
bjsnider | you should be checking for bugs on launchpad since you're using an unstable distro still in the alpha stage | 16:31 |
Shirotoko | what groups are recommended to work properly, mount units, print, etc | 16:31 |
Shirotoko | thx, i was cheking in ubuntu forums, and didn't find anything there | 16:32 |
Shirotoko | how can i find out what device is my usb-hdd | 16:39 |
yofel | Shirotoko: 'df' | 16:40 |
arand | Shirotoko: fdisk -l ? | 16:40 |
Shirotoko | not recogniced =( | 16:41 |
Shirotoko | f*** | 16:42 |
arand | Shirotoko: what is "not recognised"? | 16:43 |
Shirotoko | but that tell's me what is allready mounted ? | 16:43 |
Shirotoko | didn't find my disk on that list | 16:44 |
penguin42 | Shirotoko: You can look in /proc/partitions to see all your devices and if you really want you can follow them down from /sys/block | 16:44 |
arand | Shirotoko: By the way, for the fdisk command, prepend sudo... | 16:44 |
itswhatev | how can i pipe to a file owned by root? this used to work: cat blah.txt >> sudo rootstuff.txt | 16:46 |
Shirotoko | nothing | 16:47 |
Shirotoko | i don't see it | 16:47 |

ia | hello. since gnome in karmic use brand new gdm, does exist some way to configure it? (like it can be done in previos versions via gdmsetup) | 16:56 |
stevepearce | hello again all, I am experiencing this issue with an external NTFS disk | 16:56 |
stevepearce | I get the same out in dmesg | 16:56 |
stevepearce | *output | 16:56 |
ia | itswhatev: try cat blah.txt | sudo tee -a rootstuff.txt | 16:56 |
itswhatev | ia: is that the solution? why? | 16:57 |
ia | itswhatev: see man tee | 16:59 |
itswhatev | i know what tee does, but why doesn't normal redirection work? | 17:00 |
penguin42 | itswhatev: A > redirect doesn't work because it's executed by the shell you are in not the sudo'd new shell | 17:00 |
yofel | Shirotoko: stevepearce: me too with one of my usb disks | 17:01 |
yofel | after debugging it I'm sure that's it's not a kernel issue | 17:01 |
yofel | but I've no idea where to look now | 17:02 |
itswhatev | penguin42: well, it used to work fine, so i'm wondering what changed | 17:02 |
yofel | and Sarvatt had the same error, but somewhere else | 17:03 |
yofel | iirc | 17:03 |
penguin42 | itswhatev: I'm sorry, I don't think that would ever have worked - you must be misremembering what you used to do | 17:03 |
yofel | Shirotoko: does your complete output look like this? http://yofel.pastebin.com/f36a381ee | 17:03 |
itswhatev | penguin42: i guarantee "echo blah >> sudo rootowned.txt" used to work.. i wouldn't misremember that | 17:04 |
Shirotoko | yofel: yes, exactly like that one | 17:05 |
penguin42 | itswhatev: I'm happy to let you guarantee that, it's still wrong | 17:06 |
stevepearce | yofel, same output here | 17:06 |
Shirotoko | new kernel bug? for what i been reading.. | 17:12 |

Shirotoko | here's the quote of the fix | 17:14 |
Shirotoko | In my case, the problem dissolved when I downgraded the package gvfs to the jaunty version. | 17:14 |
Shirotoko | I have also uninstalled the devicekit-disks package, which does not have the jaunty version. | 17:14 |
Shirotoko | i don't think that's possible without compromise the whole system do | 17:17 |
Shirotoko | will be safe to do this? 'dpkg -r --force-all devicekit-disks' | 17:18 |
Shirotoko | sh** i don't know what solution of that post really works | 17:19 |
Shirotoko | ahahaha i fix it | 17:22 |

diverse_izzue | billybigrigger, what's new in the 0.8 version of networkmanager you're using? any reason why i'd want it? *g | 19:26 |
billybigrigger | nope, no clue, i was having problems back in A1 with wired connection not connecting properly, and not connecting on startup | 19:26 |
billybigrigger | 0.8 works | 19:26 |
billybigrigger | so i use it :P | 19:26 |
diverse_izzue | ok, for today i had breakage enough. i might try it out on another day *g | 19:27 |
diverse_izzue | don't know if they plan to ship 0.8 in karmic? | 19:28 |
billybigrigger | dunno | 19:28 |
sash_ | good evening. what about the actual karmic-release? is it stable enough to be used on a home-pc without being afraid of any data loss? of course, i would back up my data before, but there are some packages in karmic that i need, and i want to resetup my system the next days and with karmic, i could do this without any ppa | 19:32 |
billybigrigger | what do you use it for? | 19:32 |
sash_ | i would use it instead of jaunty, if possible | 19:35 |
billybigrigger | for what | 19:37 |
billybigrigger | what do you do daily? | 19:37 |
billybigrigger | if you backup your data often you should be fine, i don't worry about backups, and i've been using it since alpha1 | 19:37 |
billybigrigger | not saying NOTHING bad will happen, or won't happen | 19:37 |
sash_ | surfing, coding, chatting, listening to music. just have a netbook at the moment | 19:38 |
* Pici points at the channel's topic | 19:38 | |
billybigrigger | but from what i've seen everyone who's trying it is happy | 19:38 |
sash_ | are there any special applications that could make problems? | 19:39 |
billybigrigger | its an alpha, i would expect breakage | 19:39 |
sash_ | of course... i knew, that you just cant say anything else. i wouldnt do this, too ;) | 19:40 |
legend2440 | is converting ext3 to ext4 just as good as a clean install and choosing ext4? | 19:41 |
sash_ | no | 19:41 |
billybigrigger | legend2440, no | 19:41 |
billybigrigger | if you have the option, clean install with ext4 is the way to go | 19:41 |
legend2440 | billybigrigger: ok thanks | 19:41 |
diverse_izzue | sash_, it has been fairly stable for me. sound is a mess, but other than that it runs quite stably | 19:41 |
sash_ | ok, 3 more questions. is grub 2 implemented in the alpha? is it possible to change from alpha to beta to final without reinstallation? can i still use ext3? is there a mini-image of it available or do they just exist for final versions? | 19:43 |
sash_ | i think, i got some more, when i think about it ;) | 19:43 |
billybigrigger | grub2 is default on new installs | 19:44 |
billybigrigger | you can update through the whole process...and yes you can still use ext3 | 19:44 |
legend2440 | if i clean install with ext4 i won't be able to use partimage anymore forbackups as it doesnt support ext4. is dd a good option? has anyone tried fsarchiver? | 19:46 |
floating | despite all the warnings of being unstable, the only things that crash on me on this alpha3, are something that i don't even notice been using | 19:46 |
sash_ | ok, 2 more i think: diverse_izzue : what sound issues are you talking about? and: what about the intel-chipset-problems in karmic? | 19:47 |
iPoRn | is there anyone else with a problem on the gnome-setting-daemon ? | 19:47 |
floating | for my intel chipset, the alpha3 is a salvation | 19:47 |
diverse_izzue | sash_, devices are suddently muted or volume levels adjusted without you wanting that. stuff like that. | 19:48 |
diverse_izzue | sash_, i just saw that a brand new pulseaudio release is in the pipeline though, maybe that improves things | 19:48 |
diverse_izzue | sash_, a recent article on phoronix claims that intel graphics on karmic still need improvement | 19:49 |
sash_ | diverse_izzue: i got problems with pulseaudio since 7.10, so i will just uninstall that [imho] crap | 19:49 |
legend2440 | sorry for all the questions but is ext4 the default with karmic? or do i have to choose it and do manual partitioning? | 19:50 |
diverse_izzue | sash_, i'm sold to the concept of a sound server. but i also have to admit that i'm getting minimally impatient. it has been a long time coming... | 19:50 |
floating | i read a phoronix article about intel graphics.. that article was however from end of may or early june, which is not the case anymore | 19:50 |
sash_ | legend2440: the channel exists for asking^^ | 19:50 |
floating | perhaps you refer to that article | 19:50 |
diverse_izzue | floating, it's a recent one | 19:50 |
diverse_izzue | july 31st | 19:51 |
diverse_izzue | http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=intel_q309_flakes&num=1 | 19:51 |
floating | ok, i have to read that one, but my GE 82845 or what ever the chipset was, the intel graphics work better on my karmic alpha3 than in windows machine | 19:52 |
floating | and in ubuntu904 it was unusuable | 19:52 |
diverse_izzue | floating, i'm an -ati user, cannot comment | 19:53 |
floating | for example the embedded flash eg youtube is not making my cpu load to 100% | 19:53 |
floating | and the video is not laggy | 19:53 |
floating | i think there are some other intel graphics users here, who have reported that the performance has gotten better | 19:54 |
floating | but i guess it may be chipset dependent | 19:54 |
floating | yeah, maybe i am just not using the graphical elements of my chipset, that would still be flaky, and it is just the flash video that is working well now | 19:58 |
legend2440 | is ext4 the default with karmic when doing clean install? or do i have to choose ext4 specifically and do manual partitioning? | 19:58 |
floating | i guess i could run that phoronix tests and so on, but im not really into it as long as the things work i like :s | 19:58 |
floating | it is default | 20:01 |
legend2440 | floating: ok thanks | 20:01 |
billybigrigger | legend2440, ext4 is default | 20:04 |
legend2440 | billybigrigger: thanks | 20:04 |
billybigrigger | legend2440, read the release notes please before installing | 20:05 |
billybigrigger | http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/karmic/alpha3 | 20:05 |
legend2440 | billybigrigger: ok thanks | 20:05 |
legend2440 | billybigrigger: that was very helpful. it says under known issues The GNOME login manager (gdm) does not yet have a graphical configuration tool. so how does one choose Automatic Login if they want it in karmic? | 20:11 |
SeveredCross | legend2440: You have to choose it at install-time. | 20:11 |
SeveredCross | legend2440: Or edit /etc/gdm.conf or something similar later. | 20:12 |
legend2440 | SeveredCross: oh ok thanks | 20:12 |

billybigrigger | why don't you install 3.0 from repos? | 20:25 |
Shirotoko | because there's no release for karmic jet | 20:25 |
billybigrigger | haha ok | 20:25 |

billybigrigger | ose doesn't support usb | 20:27 |

sash_ | billybigrigger: ehm... does this mean, usb will never be in the ose-version, because the closed-source shall allways be better | 20:30 |
sash_ | ? | 20:30 |
bjsnider | i thought usb access was only in the closed version | 20:30 |

BUGabundo | olá | 21:09 |
yofel | hi BUGabundo | 21:09 |
Severian | During the time I was testing Alpha 2, there was never a day when upgrades were available. So far, Alpha 3 is the same. I never had that problem with earlier releases. Is there some fundmental reason for this? | 21:25 |
BUGabundo | Severian: are you running updatemanager? | 21:28 |
BUGabundo | update-notifier has been turned of on jaunty !!!! | 21:28 |
BUGabundo | so u need to check manually | 21:28 |
BUGabundo | or it only do it weekly | 21:28 |
BUGabundo | Severian: $ sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude safe-upgrade | 21:29 |
Severian | BUGabundo, I try both update manager and synaptic. I noticed update notifier was off and that was a relief. But, I did check manually. Every time I check, I get a message that only a partial upgrade is available. | 21:29 |
Severian | I have had artial upgrades break my system and to confirm the problem, I asked here and receive advice to never do them. | 21:30 |
arand | Severian: yea, that's been the case for ages now... | 21:31 |
Severian | artial -> partial | 21:31 |
BUGabundo | avoid doing partial | 21:31 |
BUGabundo | that's why I now run aptitude | 21:31 |
BUGabundo | safe-upgrade does wonders | 21:31 |
Severian | It is a test system anyway, so I'll try it. | 21:32 |
arand | BUGabundo: well, in theory partial does the same as dist-upgrade, right? | 21:32 |
scizzo- | arand: no | 21:35 |
scizzo- | arand: not really | 21:35 |
=== BUGabundo1 is now known as BUGabundo | ||

BUGabundo | I bet | 21:40 |
Severian | safe upgrade seems to have the same problem as a partial upgrade. Partial upgrades removed packages that were important to the system. sptitude safe-upgrade is also going to remove a library and I am hesitant to proceed. | 21:43 |
BUGabundo | Severian: what is it statingto remove it? | 21:44 |
BUGabundo | is it too high version? | 21:44 |
Severian | smartdimmer is going to be removed. I was just starting to lookup what it is. | 21:45 |

BUGabundo | its like the 4th this cycle! | 21:48 |
BUGabundo | aboSamoor: no idea | 21:49 |
BUGabundo | Sarvatt: http://identi.ca/notice/7562482 | 21:53 |
* BUGabundo borrows cwillu stick and pokes Sarvatt | 21:54 | |
BUGabundo | humm guess he is too happy celebrating :) | 21:55 |
Lademord | Hey, I can't shut down directly from GNOME anymore in karmic. Only log out or switch user. Is anyone else experiencing this? | 21:55 |
hggdh | Lademord, yes, FUSA is still disabled on GDM | 21:56 |
QPrime | Lademord: System->Shutdown? | 21:57 |
BUGabundo | Lademord: press the power button | 21:57 |
BUGabundo | WFM | 21:57 |
BUGabundo | QPrime: there's nothing like that there | 21:57 |
Lademord | QPrime: Hey cool, I didn't see that | 21:57 |
Lademord | BUGabundo, yes there is | 21:57 |
QPrime | BUGabundo: running Karmic and I have it. | 21:58 |
BUGabundo | no there isn't | 21:58 |
BUGabundo | thers no shutdown option on my System menu | 21:58 |
QPrime | BUGabundo: errr... ok. I'll ignore the big menu option that says it then. | 21:58 |
BUGabundo | :) | 21:58 |
Lademord | me too | 21:58 |
BUGabundo | you better | 21:58 |
BUGabundo | don't make me pick up my stick again | 21:58 |
BUGabundo | I just see it, when I press Power | 21:59 |
Severian | I have a shutdown option on karmic. Maybe it will go away after the update. | 21:59 |
* QPrime pokes the menu option with a stick... up still there. | 21:59 | |
QPrime | *yup | 21:59 |
QPrime | Lademord: alphas usually have gnome default menu entries, should revert back to 'normal' as the release progresses. | 22:01 |
Lademord | Ah, okay | 22:02 |
zleap | hi | 22:06 |
zleap | bucky | 22:07 |
BUGabundo | ? | 22:07 |
zleap | bucky asked me to join this channel | 22:07 |
* zleap is downloading karmic | 22:07 | |
BUGabundo | ok zleap | 22:08 |
BUGabundo | daily? | 22:08 |
BUGabundo | or alpha? | 22:08 |
zleap | alpha 3 | 22:08 |
BUGabundo | don't | 22:09 |
BUGabundo | get the daily | 22:09 |
BUGabundo | !daily | 22:09 |
zleap | ok | 22:09 |
ubottu | Daily builds of the CD images of the current development version of Ubuntu are available at http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily/current/ and http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ | 22:09 |
BUGabundo | daily-live zleap | 22:09 |
zleap | ok thanks | 22:10 |
zleap | bbr | 22:10 |
zleap | brb | 22:10 |
zleap | ok just changed my download script to download the daily live image | 22:13 |
Lademord | BUGabundo, aren't the dailies an even bigger risk of destroying your system? | 22:13 |
BUGabundo | no more then milestones | 22:14 |
BUGabundo | he should get what ever WE are already running | 22:14 |
zleap | BUGabundo, is there a chance of getting http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/ to point to the download site for daily live | 22:14 |
zleap | it may help people | 22:14 |
BUGabundo | as long as they/you end up in here its all fine :) | 22:14 |
Shirotoko | will be a way to update from aphla 3 to alpha 4 for instance?.. i'm new in this alpha thing | 22:14 |
Lademord | BUGabundo, then what IS the point of milestones? | 22:18 |
zleap | my system just logged me out | 22:19 |
BUGabundo | Lademord: large set of tests and to fit on CD | 22:20 |
bjsnider | but there's a daily-livecd | 22:20 |
BUGabundo | bjsnider: that's what I said | 22:20 |
BUGabundo | Shirotoko: ? | 22:20 |
bjsnider | i thought you were talking about milestones | 22:21 |
Shirotoko | BUGabundo: my question is, how do you update from an alpha 3 release to an alpha 4 without the need of reinstall | 22:21 |
arand | Shirotoko: the system will update as it goes along, and if you update, you will have the next version whenever they decide to call the current version the next alpha. | 22:22 |
* arand thinks he made no sense there | 22:22 | |
yofel | hm... wasn't there a factoid for that? | 22:22 |
yofel | !beta | 22:23 |
ubottu | If you installed a Alpha/Beta/RC version of Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) and have been keeping it up to date, then you are already running the latest version of Karmic. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a console. | 22:23 |
* arand is pwned by ubottu | 22:23 | |
bjsnider | i doubt the usefulness of alpha/beta releases given the presence of hte daily-live cd | 22:23 |
yofel | ^^ | 22:23 |
yofel | bjsnider: It's to get the repos a moment to come down | 22:23 |
bjsnider | oh come on | 22:24 |
yofel | e.g: you shouldn't have broken deps, the cd image should be <700MB etc... | 22:24 |
BUGabundo | Shirotoko: running any update at any point in time, gives you current settings | 22:24 |
arand | I guess the milestone isos is better testing when it comes to the installer & booting them, ? | 22:24 |
bjsnider | i doubt there are many broken deps on a livecd | 22:24 |
BUGabundo | bjsnider: its to get broader testing by devs | 22:25 |
BUGabundo | and to force SIZE down | 22:25 |
BUGabundo | also to have HARD time slots to target work | 22:25 |
BUGabundo | arand: that too | 22:25 |
bjsnider | try coming in here 3 days after an alpha release when people are installing what i now old stuff and complaining about bugs that have been fixed already | 22:25 |
BUGabundo | usually milestones are tested if they install | 22:25 |
bjsnider | which they'd have known if they'd installed the daily-livecd | 22:25 |
BUGabundo | while dailys are left for testers to figure it out and report regressions | 22:26 |
BUGabundo | bjsnider: and we ask them if they have all the updates | 22:26 |
BUGabundo | are you new in this? | 22:26 |
Shirotoko | BUGabundo: they're like a backup you say? | 22:26 |
BUGabundo | I've been doing +1 support since 7.04 | 22:26 |
BUGabundo | Shirotoko: no | 22:27 |
BUGabundo | they are package udpates | 22:27 |
gnu-dio | I've been doing ubuntu since 6.06 and linux since when slackware was the only option. But this is my fist time playing with ubuntu+1 alpha stuff | 22:28 |
Shirotoko | ah, so in conclusion millestones are so much like dailys... | 22:29 |
* yofel is on +1 since intrepid beta | 22:29 | |
BUGabundo | gnu-dio: and still your nick doesn't say anything to me :) welcome to +1 | 22:29 |
gnu-dio | hehe | 22:30 |
connex | what about flash? | 22:30 |
BUGabundo | oh I miss read gnu-dio eheh | 22:30 |
lupine_85 | anyone here managed to get LTSP working in karmic? | 22:30 |
BUGabundo | connex: don't start that | 22:30 |
connex | won't | 22:30 |
BUGabundo | Shirotoko: yes | 22:30 |
lupine_85 | I can get X running on the client (manually), but not karmic | 22:30 |
lupine_85 | erm, ldm | 22:30 |
BUGabundo | Shirotoko: they *are* dailes! | 22:30 |
Shirotoko | just, to give the repos a break.. i thought they where sort of 'stables' releases | 22:30 |
yofel | Shirotoko: well, there is a *soft* freeze before them to make sure there aren't any major regressions | 22:31 |
BUGabundo | Shirotoko: there is no such thing on a Devel | 22:31 |
bjsnider | they're a complete waste of time | 22:31 |
yofel | like: how good would it have been if todays apparomor breakage would have made it into the alpha4 live disk? | 22:31 |
yofel | s/apparomor/apparmor/ | 22:32 |
gnu-dio | it would have resulted is a fairly quick release of alpha5 I bet | 22:32 |
Severian | After my update, I still have a shutdown menu option on my karmic test system. | 22:32 |
yofel | gnu-dio: the release times are fixed, so thats impossible | 22:33 |
BUGabundo | ahhh so updates changed the shutdown Severian? | 22:33 |
BUGabundo | eheh | 22:33 |
yofel | gnu-dio: see the release schedule | 22:33 |
gnu-dio | heh. shows what I know about the ubuntu dev process ;) | 22:33 |
BUGabundo | gnu-dio: Shirotoko you guys should be ready for breakage, and data loss | 22:33 |
BUGabundo | please keep backups and a livecd/usb at hand | 22:33 |
Severian | BUGabundo, They did not change anything for me. BUt, people here were saying they did not have that option. | 22:34 |
BUGabundo | I don't | 22:34 |
BUGabundo | only logout | 22:34 |
yofel | hm, I still have it here | 22:34 |
Shirotoko | BUGabundo : not a problem, is just that i was only interesed on millestones because i thougth they where the only releases avaliable | 22:35 |
BUGabundo | nope | 22:35 |
gnu-dio | I have a full working install of 9.04, mandriva spring 2008, and upup 476. If this karmic breaks I'm not worried... ;) | 22:35 |
Shirotoko | BUGabundo : and they where unable to update via dist-upgrade | 22:35 |
bjsnider | hows mandriva work? | 22:36 |
gnu-dio | It's a very different line. I like it as a leftover from so many years running redhat stuff, but overall I like ubuntu/debina better | 22:36 |
BUGabundo | Shirotoko: avoid dist-upgrade. it tends to force package with incomplete depencies | 22:37 |
BUGabundo | gnu-dio: Shirotoko : use either update-manager (without choosing partial updates) or $ sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude safe-upgrade | 22:37 |
bjsnider | ouch. no love for mandriva | 22:37 |
gnu-dio | I have some love for it, but more as a nostalgia thing ;) | 22:38 |
bjsnider | remember when it was the #1 distro? | 22:39 |
gnu-dio | yup | 22:39 |
zleap | if I am running wget ina console terminal window and my system logs out, is the download still running, and if so when i log back in, what do i need to type to see the processs running on the terminal window | 22:39 |
gnu-dio | and I used it all the time than as my #1 | 22:39 |
bobesponja | my X11 keeps flickering when I'm on 2.6.31-3 or higher, it's fine with 2.6.31-2, I have an intel card, is there a work around? | 22:39 |
gnu-dio | but debian/ubuntu took over for a reason. apt>rpm | 22:39 |
bjsnider | hahaahaa | 22:39 |
bobesponja | is it because of kernel mod setting? | 22:40 |
BUGabundo | gnu-dio: bjsnider: OT | 22:40 |
gnu-dio | sorry, I'll quit | 22:40 |
BUGabundo | aboSamoor: wake up dude!!!! | 22:40 |
bjsnider | overtime? | 22:40 |
gnu-dio | off-topic | 22:41 |
BUGabundo | pff | 22:41 |
BUGabundo | hey dupondje | 22:41 |
guntbert | zleap: you must either start wget under nohup (nohup wget ....) or use screen | 22:41 |
yofel | bjsnider: before I forget: although nvidia 185 is broken on my quadro nvs 190 works fine so far | 22:42 |
dupondje | hii BUGabundo :) | 22:42 |
bjsnider | cool | 22:42 |
aboSamoor | BUGabundo, sorry, it was "The Horseman on the roof" | 22:42 |

dupondje | yes we like ! | 22:42 |
bjsnider | yofel, 190.18.03? | 22:42 |
Sarvatt | hmm, i cant tether anymore in karmic, odd | 22:42 |
BUGabundo | aboSamoor: reply to dtchen. he is waiting | 22:42 |
zleap | so when it logged out, it would have killed the process | 22:42 |
yofel | bjsnider: yes | 22:42 |
aboSamoor | BUGabundo, already replied | 22:42 |
billybigrigger | bjsnider, is that the leaked 190 you talk of? or was it actually released? | 22:43 |
guntbert | whats the sensible way to report a bug in the installation process (time settings) ? | 22:43 |
bjsnider | no, this is a new version | 22:43 |
bjsnider | this time nobody broke an NDA | 22:43 |
SeveredCross | guntbert: File against ubiquity. | 22:43 |
guntbert | SeveredCross: ok, thx | 22:43 |

BUGabundo | yofel: did you hear/read? Sarvatt is now a Ubuntu Member | 22:46 |
Sarvatt | whats wrong yofel? | 22:46 |
yofel | not yet :) | 22:46 |
BUGabundo | well not danag, but yeah he is missing | 22:46 |
yofel | Sarvatt: congrats | 22:46 |
BUGabundo | ohh now he replies LOLOL | 22:46 |
BUGabundo | Sarvatt: celebrating hard??? LOL | 22:46 |
Sarvatt | yah i'm at a stop light actually LOL | 22:46 |
billybigrigger | everyone get their party hats on! | 22:46 |
* billybigrigger throws Sarvatt a party | 22:47 | |
yofel | Sarvatt: didn't you have some usb -71 errors too? | 22:47 |
BUGabundo | Sarvatt: ahaahahahahahahahaahahah | 22:48 |
yofel | somebody mentioned bug 387161 today. That's at least what I have here. | 22:49 |
ubottu | Launchpad bug 387161 in linux "External SATA->USB Drive gives lots of USB resets on ATA smart probing" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/387161 | 22:49 |
BUGabundo | hey | 22:50 |
BUGabundo | I get that | 22:50 |
BUGabundo | though it was a fauly disk | 22:50 |
BUGabundo | e-sata too | 22:50 |
Sarvatt | yeah I was having those problems, but everythings fixed in 2.6.31-rc5 for me even though I do get the errors in dmesg when i close the laptop lid | 22:52 |
Shirotoko | here's the fix for that | 22:52 |
Shirotoko | apt-get install --reinstall devicekit-disks | 22:52 |
Shirotoko | mv /lib/udev/rules.d/95-devkit-disks.rules{,.disabled} | 22:52 |
BUGabundo | Shirotoko: that's a bit dramatic :p | 22:53 |
Sarvatt | probably be better to just disable the smart calls in that rules file instead of disabling devicekit-disks entirely? | 22:54 |
BUGabundo | have a regresion to file on Firefox, upstream, and I so don't fill like it | 22:55 |
BUGabundo | anyone wants to do it for me? | 22:55 |
Sarvatt | hmm http://cgit.freedesktop.org/DeviceKit/DeviceKit-disks/commit/?id=f7e0e966c86197c7734b05dbdfe2a0386e41b658 | 22:55 |

BUGabundo | hence my email, irc cloak, etc | 23:36 |

BUGabundo | I've reported it upstream too | 23:41 |
