[00:03] Oh hey, what do I have to do to get avahi and CUPS to automatically recognize a printer attached to an AirPort Express? [00:04] It'll recognize other CUPS printers / hosts automatically.... but it doesn't show the AE-connected printer. [00:04] is it not a samba share? [00:04] nope. [00:04] It shows up as "PDL Printer" in service-discovery-applet. [00:04] then how does the apple computer see it? [00:05] + wlan0 IPv4 Samsung ML-1210 _riousbprint._tcp local [00:05] + wlan0 IPv4 Samsung ML-1210 _pdl-datastream._tcp local [00:05] you must have a mac there somewhere to configure the AE [00:05] There's a Windows utility, too. [00:06] outrageous [00:06] Apple really IS damn annoying... I mean, is it too much to ask for a danged WEB INTERFACE? [00:06] =þ [00:06] DanaG: If you go to add a printer and tell it to look at that host does it work? [00:06] Yeah, works just fine -- airportexpress.local [00:07] I just wanted it to be automatic -- that is, only show up when I'm at home. [00:07] buy a real router? [00:08] I have one; the AE is a client. [00:08] =þ [00:08] Hmm, I wonder what we could get on ebay for the AE. (It's wireless-G, not N). [00:08] bjsnider: I think it is doing stuff using standard protocols - I think it's all the avahi stuff (what Apple call Bonjour?) [00:09] IPP printers (_ipp._tcp) work fine, and show up in CUPS. Only the AE one doesn't show up. [00:09] s/doesn't/fails to / [00:23] hmm, anyone else have issues with being unable to click the controls in Flash objects, such as YouTube videos? [00:24] someone else asked that before - but I was OK doing some flash clicks - although that was in a game rather than actual controls [00:24] hmm, how do I get the 64-bit Flash? [00:29] try wiping out every flash-related package on your system. download the plugin from adobe, drop the file in /usr/lib/xulrunner-addons/plugins [00:29] i should keep that in glipper all the time and just paste it in whenever someone asks that [00:30] bjsnider: Is there a reason flashplayer-installer doesn't do that [00:31] * penguin42 wonders if it actually does [00:31] maybe it does [00:31] i just find it easier to do it th is way [00:32] ugh, screen blanked. [00:32] wow, actually, it seems to be 1 hour after I log in. [00:33] adobe doesn't rev the thing very often, like every six months or whatever [00:33] ah that one again ... [00:33] bjsnider: Yeh but when it does it's often a security thing [00:33] so i just keep it in the home directory whenever i reinstall [00:35] bjsnider: actually there's a bug requesting packaging of it - bug 326555 [00:35] Launchpad bug 326555 in flashplugin-nonfree "Please package flashplugin 64bit" [Wishlist,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/326555 [00:36] bjsnider: It looks like there's something that means that the ubuntu.com archives only hold stables and since the 64bit is officially still alpha then it can't go on [00:36] yeah, whatever. ican't keep track of it. there are 3 or 4 different ways of doing it including some half-realized open-source knock-off [00:37] oh, that's stupid [00:37] idiotic [00:38] * penguin42 thought he remembered that from somewhere - I'd commented on it 6 months ago :-) [00:50] bjsnider: it's indeed a licensing agreement. canonical cannot redistribute a non-release version. [00:53] if you say so, sir [00:56] i was the motu who asked for it back in the day, and that's what adobe told me. [00:58] by the time it gets sorted out, flash will have gone the way of realplayer [01:01] that's doubtful [01:24] dtchen, is there any way in a control file to establish a dependency on either one package or another, not at build-time but at install time? [01:25] hey guys, does anyone know about the karmic moblin port? [01:25] How do I download wine from Karmic repos so I can build it from source? [01:25] I mean, download the source code? [01:25] derekS: there was a mobile irc channel for ubuntu last i remember [01:25] dtchen: i have looked fori t, do you know it? [01:25] Oh yeah, what ever did happen to the ARM Netbook idea Canonical had? [01:26] richardcavell: presuming you have an active universe deb-src line, apt-get source wine [01:26] DanaG: it's in progress [01:26] Hmm, I haven't heard any news about it in quite a while. Are there any articles anywhere? [01:26] dtchen: okay. Where will it install the source code in my filesystem? [01:26] there have been a shedload of patches flying past [01:26] personally, i have never been impressed with an OS like I have been with moblin [01:26] richardcavell: . [01:26] okay [01:26] its the first that I have seen as revolutionary (well for netbook type tasks) [01:26] I mean, I see the software side... but what hardware will it be on? [01:27] I'll make a directory for it then [01:27] bjsnider: sure, use '|' [01:28] bjsnider: e.g., if you want foo to depend on bar or baz (but prefer bar), then use: Depends: bar | baz [01:28] !info dtrx [01:28] very very handy tool. [01:28] dtrx (source: dtrx): intelligently extract multiple archive types. In component universe, is optional. Version 6.4-1ubuntu1 (karmic), package size 19 kB, installed size 132 kB [01:28] It makes sure things won't go trampling all over the current directory. [01:29] dtchen, i know but, the problem is i'm linking to dynamic libs that can be provided by two different packages, and after build is done, the resulting package asks for the one it chose during the build process and refuses the other choice [01:29] i think it's impossible [01:29] dtchen: do you know the ubuntu mobile channel [01:30] dang thingy asks for authentication for mounting my eSATA drive. [01:30] derekS: i think ubuntu-mobile, but i could be mistaken [01:31] dtchen: thanks :) i forgot the E :) [01:31] And it gives "not permitted" for the other partition on that drive, because it can't queue two authentications at once. [01:32] bjsnider: look at how ffmpeg dlopens one or the other of (un)stripped libs [01:34] dtchen, i'll do that, but i'm not sure with my last question that i made clear what the problem is. using your example, what if i put the pipe in the control file and the build system picks bar at build time. now the resulting foo package depends on bar when installed, even if the user want to install baz instead. is there a way to give the user the choice? [01:35] dtchen: when I've downloaded the source, if the repo version of the source is updated, can I update it within Update Manager like normal? [01:35] dtchen: ie does it operate like a binary package? [01:36] richardcavell, the minor updates don't chage the source tarball but change the other two [01:36] major updates are new source tarballs [01:37] bjsnider: at the moment the repo version of wine is 1.1.26. Presumably the maintainer will get around to updating the binary package to 1.1.27 [01:37] When he does, if I want to upgrade my source code to version 1.1.27, what do I do? [01:37] that would be a minor update [01:37] just repeat the command [01:38] it will download the new source files [01:38] bjsnider: err, you would build-dep both and generate two separate binary packages. [01:38] you mean just repeat apt-get source wine? [01:38] yes [01:38] bjsnider: again, see what the ffmpeg source does [01:38] because now the source is updated [01:38] dtchen, that's what i thought. thanks [01:38] bjsnider: is there a way to update the source instead of downloading all over again? [01:38] (It's 18 megs) [01:39] the tarball is the big object and it won't change on a small update [01:39] okay [01:39] oris this a release coming from wine? [01:39] I just downloaded it and now I realise that it's the wrong source code. I should have said apt-get source wine1.2 [01:40] you meant he ubuntu version is called 1.1.26? [01:40] or the wine version? [01:40] bjsnider: the ubuntu karmic repo currently has 1.1.26 [01:40] On 4 August, version 1.1.27 was released [01:40] but it's not in Ubuntu repo [01:40] ok, that would be a new tarball then [01:41] ubuntu point releases wouldn't. if it's a bug in the ubuntu package it would not be a new tarball [01:41] Presumably the maintainer (Scott Ritchie) will get around to updating the repos [01:41] Now, I can download the new version of wine within update manager. But to update the source I'll have to rm -rf the directory and then apt-get source wine1.2 all over again, right? [01:41] why did you want the source? [01:42] I'm trying to profile some code to find a bug and I need debug symbols [01:43] richardcavell: there are debug symbols for every binary (and probably library) present in supported repositories [01:43] i thought you were just trying to build your own version in pbuilder or something [01:43] kklimonda: so how do I get them? [01:43] (unless we are talking about ppas.. yawn) [01:44] richardcavell: you should add repositories listed on this page: https://wiki.edubuntu.org/DebuggingProgramCrash [01:44] richardcavell: and then install -dbgsym package [01:45] richardcavell, if the bug you're talking about is fixed in the new version, what's the point of debugging the current one? [01:45] the fact that it's edubuntu instead of ubuntu - does that make any difference? [01:45] bjsnider: it's not fixed in the new version - I'm just saying that 1.1.27 wine is not in the repos. To get that I'd have to compile from source [01:45] (or wait a week) [01:46] how do you know it's not fixed? [01:47] oh yeah, so how do I get the 32-bit pulse-alsa thingy back? [01:48] bjsnider: I don't, but it's not in the changelogs [01:48] I only just reported the bug [01:48] I'm back now. My net connection dropped for a second [01:49] interesting.... the volume slider for my USB sound card in PulseAudio... has no effect! [01:51] anyone know how to restart the x-server in karmic? Used to be ctrl-alt-bkspc but that doesn't work now. [01:52] Tamagotono: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart should doo the trick [01:52] * richardcavell is back again [01:53] or log out and log back in [01:54] derekS: Thanks, unfortunatly I have to switch to a standard terminal for that to work, else it does not re-start x. There used to be an option to disable NoZap in xorg.conf, but I don [01:54] oops... dont even see that file. [01:55] Tamagotono: sorry, i dunno, thats how i do it [01:55] I appreciate your help. :) [01:57] dtchen: okay I've downloaded the source [01:57] dtchen: now can I go ./configure, make, make install to get my debug symbols installed? [02:03] odd... is the font rendering in Karmic supposed to be any different from the font rendering in Jaunty? [02:05] I dont think so [02:16] richardcavell, having some internet problems are we? [02:17] bjsnider: lol, you noticed [02:19] When I booted Jaunty to print something, I noticed that the fonts seemed slightly nicer there, somehow. [02:29] argh... wtf... now Totem's app-volume slider controls the whole sound card. [02:29] I just accidentally blasted myself by turning up the volume -- the thing was muted, so I figured I'd unmute the app and move it to max volume... and BAM!, it put the sound card at max volume, too. [02:30] That flat-volumes interface strikes me as a really bad idea. [02:30] It may make sense technically... but to the user, it's just plain screwed up.' [02:31] When you control Windows Media Player's volume, it doesn't touch the sound card volume.... so why is it different here? It totally breaks my expectations for what volume controls should do. [02:33] DanaG: Flat volumes is terrible. [02:33] I actually nuked PulseAudio earlier today, and just rebound my multimedia keys to use amixer and bash scripts to change my ALSA volume. [02:34] I'm so sick of PulseAudio. [02:34] I don't care if I can't get multiple application sound mixing, I don't ever use more than one sound-producing app anyway. [02:46] SeveredCross, why not try OSS4? [02:51] Okay, I'm trying to install package wine1.2-dev but it depends on wine (=1.1.26). Now, I know that that dependency is wrong. It should depend on wine1.2 (=1.1.26), and I have that package installed. I've filed a bug report about the incorrect depends. Can I use apt-get to forcibly install the wine1.2-dev anyway? [02:54] * richardcavell watches the tumbleweed roll through in response to his question [02:58] richardcavell, i don't understand the problem. did you make a typo in there? [02:58] bjsnider: No [02:59] sudo apt-get install wine1.2-dev fails [02:59] why? [02:59] it says unresolved dependency: wine (=1.1.26) [02:59] Is anyone aware of a way to bypass the physical wireless switch on a laptop to enable wireless? (pretty sure the switch is outright broken/non-functional... doesn't work in Ubuntu or XP) [02:59] But on Ubuntu, package wine only goes up to 1.0.1. [02:59] The unstable version of wine (1.1.26) is in package wine1.2 [02:59] oh, i see [02:59] So the guy has listed the wrong package name in the dependencies [03:00] It should depend on wine1.2 (=1.1.26) [03:00] yes, i see [03:00] But I'm asking - if I forcibly install the package anyway, am I going to bork my computer? [03:00] you could get 1.1.27 from the winehq jaunty repo... [03:01] actually, the package shouldn't have been renamed like that, or the control file should have been scrubbed more thoroughly before it was sent in to build [03:01] ScislaC: Will it work on Karmic without modification? [03:01] yep [03:01] does here [03:01] ScislaC: I'm a little bit reluctant to add the winehq repo to Software Sources. [03:02] ScislaC: Also, I want debug symbols cos I'm doing some profiling to track down a bug. What does the winehq repo give you? Just the binaries, or can you install debug symbols? [03:02] well, for the record, I almost always am running a +1 of ubuntu with the stable winehq's repo... 4 ubuntu releases now with no problems [03:02] 1 sec [03:03] it has wine-dev as well [03:03] Okay, how big is it? [03:03] Has it got all the source? The dependencies for wine1.2-dev are 181 megs of downloads [03:04] bjsnider: Most apps don't support OSS these days, at least I think. [03:04] Though, OTOH, most of the apps I use are GStreamer, and GStreamer should support oSS. [03:04] richardcavell: It has all the same packages that ubuntu provides... however, I have a pretty -dev'd out system, so when I go to add the wine-dev package that's all it wants to add [03:05] ScislaC: ok [03:05] I just want all my dependencies to work nicely with each other [03:06] richardcavell: you could try it without pain though since ubuntu does the 1.2 naming and winehq still isn't adding the numbers in the name (just wine, as opposed to wine1.2) [03:06] Won't I have to uninstall package wine1.2 (from Ubuntu universe repo) and then install wine from winehq repo? [03:07] richardcavell: ahhh... yes you do (just tried to tag the other for install) [03:07] but it won't kill your current config if you don't tell it to :) [03:08] So remove rather than purge, you mean? [03:11] yes [03:12] ScislaC: I think that will still result in downloading 181 megs of -dev files [03:13] richardcavell: hmmm... dunno what to tell you if that's the concerning part for you (slow connection?) [03:13] ScislaC: I just want the debug symbols [03:14] ScislaC: If I compile my wine from source, I may end up conflicting with my package manager [03:14] richardcavell: gotcha [03:14] If I download it from the Ubuntu repos, there's a bug in the dependencies [03:14] So I'm a bit stuck [03:15] I think the best idea is: I emailed the maintainer of the Ubuntu repo version of wine, and I'll get him to fix the dependencies [03:15] * ScislaC nods [03:16] the maintainer may also have a ppa, so that may be worth looking for [03:16] Then if I compile from source, my package manager will not regard it as foreign [03:16] On another issue, is anyone able to get package dontzap to work? On my MacBook, I can't get X to restart by doing Ctrl-Alt-backspace [03:17] I seem to recall reading on the ubuntu-devel list that it's currently broken [03:18] dontzap does what it says now, it doesnt allow zapping if its enabled :D you change it in keyboard layout options now [03:18] It seems like they're not terribly concerned atm since the goal is to get X so rock solid that you'd never need to use it... they feel switching ttys should be sufficient. [03:18] that's where it is [03:19] Well, on my MacBook I try to run games under wine. [03:20] And sometimes it's impossible to get my mouse pointer or keyboard focus out of the game, so I have to log out to get control of my computer again [03:20] I can sometimes Ctrl-Alt-Esc and get my mouse pointer to the System-> Log Out menu item [03:21] !libatasmart0 [03:21] Sorry, I don't know anything about libatasmart0 [03:22] libatasmart0 was just installed as a new install under Update Manager. Now Computer Janitor is saying it's no longer in the repository. [03:30] dpkg -i newcustomkernel.deb is not updating my menu.lst file , is there an alternative program and command that does this besides manual way? [03:36] spO: Are you using grub2? [03:36] * richardcavell is going to play Half-Life to cure his dependencies-induced headache. [03:50] in my fstab it has a incorrect entry, how can i find the correct UUID ? it says the following: # Entry for /dev/ !! UNKNOW DEVICE !! : UUID=8810c2d8-da34-4513-973b-aff3d295ee9f / ext3 relatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1 # Entry for /dev/sda5 : UUID=637c37bb-1c11-4507-ace7-a31180fbb8a1 none swap sw 0 0 [03:51] oh wrong channel [04:26] spO, ls /dev/disk/by-uuid/ [04:27] well, ls /dev/disk/by-uuid/ -l would be better i suppose [04:33] something about URW Chancery L borks firefox [04:45] somebody who has ff 3.5 look at this page and then compare it to another browser: http://www.codestyle.org/servlets/FontSampler?class=URWChanceryL&font=URW%20Chancery%20L&compare=normal [04:50] bjsnider: ??? midori displays the font as italic , and firefox doesnt! [04:51] no, it's not italic [04:51] the font is cursive to begin with [04:51] look at it in ff 3.0 [04:51] ff 3.5 is not displaying URW Chancery L at all [04:52] oh yeah , cursive... midori and firefox 3.0 are same [04:52] it's dummying out and displaying the default system font [04:52] Can I put karmic koala on a partition of a usb hard drive and boot from that to see how it works? === mac__v is now known as mac_v [05:06] I actually DO use the multi-device features of PulseAudio. [05:10] JFS was not made for being a OS fs , why is it being used for that now... people cannot create something that is more effective or efficent? [05:10] ext4 is [05:10] utilifate that one [05:10] I'm leaning to xfs [05:11] xfs has problems dealing with extremely large files [05:12] bjsnider: Interesting. I stream dual-layer DVD isos off it without hiccups. ( ~9Gb) [05:12] try deleting them [05:13] interesting: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Btrfs [05:13] btrfs is awesome, but not ready [05:13] another year at least [05:13] Deletes are slow on XFS, that's a known fact. [05:13] But reads and writes are fast. [05:14] i don't think it does reliable fsck recoveries either [05:14] SeveredCross: I used to get "hiccups" on data stream every 4G with ext2/3 [05:14] genii: Interesting.; [05:15] OpenSolaris uses ZFS right? [05:15] yes [05:15] i remember hearing the guy that wrote reiser was going to jail? [05:15] their own fs [05:15] he is in jail\ [05:15] http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/archives/000886.html [05:15] he killed his wife [05:15] guess no more reiser [05:16] the law carries penalties for that kind of on the stiff side [05:18] DanaG: really hope we'll see more 200dpi screens, I really want one anyway. 2560x1600 at like 22" would be nice [05:18] My laptop is 147 DPI. [05:18] but people generally dont have good eyevision enough, I think that's why [05:18] Good thing Linux rocks at DPI scaling. [05:18] ... and the OSes have historically been bad at resizing stuff, but that changed with vista [05:19] Oh, and by default, Win7 actually sets DPI to the actual DPI of the display! [05:19] so if we can just get XP out of corporate, things might improve [05:19] DanaG, i don't know that we have the computing power to use a monitor with, for instance, 300dpi [05:19] There is literally NO monitor I can buy, that would work as a secondary monitor, without having things 1.5 times as large when on the secondary display. [05:19] even if it was economical to manufacture at an affordable price [05:19] It sucks -- I simply CAN'T use dual monitors -- none matches my internal! [05:20] If I wanted to match my internal... I'd have to buy a laptop LCD and an LCD controller. Total price: 700 bucks, or so. [05:20] ah hans reiser left two books on police murder investigations inside his car, woops [05:21] who is he? [05:21] richardcavell: Brilliant programmer that snapped and killed his wife [05:21] ok [05:21] i don't think he snapped [05:21] richardcavell: the developer of reiserFS [05:21] he was always a nut [05:21] lol [05:21] Hehe [05:23] * mac_v awaiting BtrFS [05:23] DanaG: well, let's hope the future brings nice things now, seems most of the elements are starting to fall in place, there are screens, there are OSes that can do this nicely, so the entry point for actually putting this screen into production seems to be less and less [05:23] Oh yeah, and nifty thing: the HD3650 can handle HL2DM at 1920x1200 with good texture filtering and vsync on. [05:24] I just have to have AA off -- and at 147 DPI, I really mostly don't need AA. [05:24] but we're hampered by the people who think that running 1024x768 on a 1280x1024 19" screen is good... [05:24] butnot on linux i'm sure [05:24] DanaG: Thats the same card I have, it's nice [05:24] Yeah, that's on Windows. I boot native when I want to play. [05:24] Mine's a Mobility, rather. [05:24] As long as I can't get this high DPI in a desktop... I will not buy any desktop. [05:24] oh, i thought i was taking a gratuitous dig at fglrx, but i guess i was right anyway [05:25] Actually, a bigger blocker is Wine's audio suckage. [05:25] It doesn't do surround sound, and it deals very badly with PulseAudio -- and yes, I do want to route it through PulseAudio. [05:25] i've got antialiasing and anisotropic filtering both on full blast (16x) [05:26] 1920x1200 is my native resolution. [05:26] sO IT looks really nice. [05:27] still get >8000fps in glxgears [05:27] oh yeah, something odd: my laptop screen seems to have a "smudge" that's somehow permanent. [05:27] glxgears_is_not_a_benchmark. [05:27] Try nexuiz. [05:27] how about what's that game? [05:27] uh... [05:28] ETQW [05:28] hmm, haven't used it. [05:29] I was thinking you were thinking of that "sausage" -- sauerbraten [05:29] bjsnider: where do you set those filtering? [05:29] i can run that at 1680x1050 graphics at maximum settings with AA and anisotrpic at 16x [05:29] mac_v, nvidia-settings [05:29] ah! stupid ATI [05:30] move to nvidia [05:30] hehe... this is a laptop :( [05:30] amdcccle [05:30] My laptop offered a choice of either... it's a discrete card. [05:30] huh... never tried that [05:30] whats with the alpha 1/ alpha 2, will keeping upgraded with packages keep me upgraded on the karmic release? [05:30] newuiz has a benchmark mode? [05:30] nexuiz [05:31] odinsbane: yes. [05:31] Yeah, in the multiplayer "demos" section. [05:31] whoa 1009 packages to be upgraded [05:35] i don't see that section [05:35] i have a multiplayer section [05:35] demos is a tab in the 2.5 version. [05:35] I got it from getdeb. === ripps_ is now known as ripps [05:48] i'll runt he benchmark out of phoronix-test-suite [05:53] hmm, what benchmark do they have? [05:53] I haven't tried that test suite. [05:55] they have all of them [05:57] yeah, it seems very comprehensive [05:57] is there a php-gtk package in karmic? [06:00] heh, I still can't believe he used php-gtk ... [06:00] maybe he's a web guy and he only knows php [06:01] that would simply be an opportunity to learn [06:02] yes but gee whiz [06:02] "all of them" -- hah, odd answer. [06:25] is cups universally broken right now in karmic? [06:25] after the last update I can't print anything any more and cups prints "Weird page contents" in the error_log [06:36] I keep getting this error when doing apt-get update: W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net karmic Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 248DD1EEBC8EBFE8 [06:36] not sure what i messed up but how can i fix it? [06:36] andresmh: You're using a PPA whose signature you didn't add to your keyring. [06:36] andresmh: Try this: gpg --recv-keys 248DD1EEBC8EBFE8 && gpg --export --armor 248DD1EEBC8EBFE8 | sudo apt-key add - [06:36] That will add that key to your apt keyring. [06:37] is there a way to know which PPA is the problematic one? perhaps i should get rid of it instead [06:37] andresmh: It's the Network-manager PPA, and it's not really being problematic. [06:37] The packages are signed, you just don't have the key. [06:37] (I only know it's the N-M PPA because I fetched the key). [06:38] ah :) wow, good memory with those hexadecimal numbers [06:38] Nah, I copy-pasted the line I typed above. :) [06:39] hehe [06:39] another question about apt-get. I'm trying to revert a bunch of updates I did to pulseaudio but for some reason is not letting me force a specific version. [06:40] This is the problem: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/409819 [06:40] Launchpad bug 409819 in ubuntu "[regression] Microphone not working after pulse updates on Karmic" [Undecided,New] [06:40] while it gets fixed I'd like to revert back [06:43] No idea, not an apt wizard. [06:44] andresmh: isnt that a pulse audio error , why is it filed in ubuntu? [06:45] in general i mean [06:45] mac_v, ah good point. You know, sometimes I don't know where to file bugs. Sometimes is obvious what the package is but other times I have no idea. [06:45] I'd be happy to submit the bugs to the appropriate place I just find the process a bit daunting. [06:46] like in this case, there were a bunch of pulse packages that were upgraded. Do each one of them have their separate launchpad space? [06:50] Is there a Pulse Audio repo for Karmic? I could only find the source repo [06:58] oh yeah, is it a known issue that the RAOP is broken in PA 0.9.16? [07:00] what is RAOP? [07:01] Remote Audio Output Protocol. [07:01] The AirPort Express thingy. [07:01] is that why I am not able to record sound DanaG ? [07:01] Geez, Apple really does name things rather annoyingly. I don't want a runway anywhere near my computer... would be too noisy. [07:08] Pulseaudio is suddenly ramping my volume up too high. It was working great the yesterday, but there appears to have a been a change recently that makes it too loud [07:09] handy hint for mic issues: install gamix. It's a bare-ALSA volume control app. [07:09] hi [07:09] Hola [07:10] Listening to music on my headphones was perfect at about 30-40% yesterday, but today, It's been ramped up so high that I have to keep around 5-10% to keep it from being too loud, but that doesn't give me alot of range to fine tune the volume [07:10] ah, probably the new "use multiple volume sliders" feature. [07:11] Open alsamixer on the device, and watch as you change the volume in pulseaudio. [07:11] How to change the link to the chat room in Spanish [07:11] one of my cores is running at full speed but the other one is not. /proc/cpuinfo reports one at 1667Mhz, but the second one only at 1000Mhz. I tried $ cpufreq-selector -g performance but it doesn't help. I guess I'm kinda clueless. This is a T2300 Core Duo, on a DELL Inspiron 9400. [07:11] alsamixer -c0 in console -- 0 is sound card number. may be 1 or 2 or such. [07:12] I don't know that there even are language-specific +1 channels. [07:12] maxiras: click on "join" [07:12] [03:04] maxiras: then in add channel for example type "#ubuntu+1" [07:12] [03:04] --> prasad has joined this channel (n=quassel@59.184.24.179). [07:12] [03:06] maxiras: wish you help [07:12] [03:06] Hey can anyone tell me how to change mouse setting on Kubuntu 9.04. I want to check the click properties. iwant my folder to open on double click and not single click which is default [07:12] DanaG: I know, it seems to primarily move master but it seems to move around several sliders. I think the issue is that It moves the pcm slider too high [07:12] How to change the link to the chat room in Spanish === x1250_ is now known as x1250 [07:13] pcm is either 0 or 80, but it would probably be best at 50 or if it would move slowly as I ramp up the volume. 0 or 80 with nothing in between is too strong [07:41] I don't want the latest Pulse Audio so I downloaded a bunch of .deb's of the previous version. But when trying to install them I get: Error: A later version is already installed. I am afraid of uninstalling pulseaudio because it wants to uninstall ubuntu-desktop [07:44] andresmh: i think its better to report the problems and get it fixed than to roll back... else the problems ith your setup *might* never get solved [07:46] mac_v, i did report the problem :) i just want to roll back while it's fixed [07:47] hehe... crappy PA updates messed up everything in my system too! [07:47] Man my PA was perfect yesterday... Now it's terrible [07:47] i'd love to roll back too while things get fixed ;p [07:48] ripps: same here, *everything* is messed up... all regressions! [07:50] andresmh: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DowngradeHowto [07:51] I"m using a workaround by using software mixer in my mpd and having the client ramp the volume low in the application so it doesn't sound so loud. [07:52] andresmh: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=321156 [07:52] But I shouldn't have to manually lower the volume on each individual app because PA can't remember how to gradually increase volume [08:17] hey [08:17] i have a pretty weird problem [08:17] i cannot activate the wireless network [08:17] the adapter is recognized automatically [08:18] but when i do right click in network manager the option "activate wireless" appeared gray and i cannot use it [08:18] is karmik alpha3 fresh install and then i updated like 1 hour ago [08:23] supreme: which kernel?
