diverse_izzueyou can try having a look at the xorg log file in the guest00:00
diverse_izzue/var/log/Xorg.0.log00:00
avihaybdon't you just press install guest addition in the vbox software, and look aound in the cd in the virtual os?00:00
BUGabundohummm00:00
BUGabundowho updated topic??00:00
diverse_izzueavihayb, right, that's the other option00:00
starwindI did that at first avihayb, but it gave , me an error in the terminal00:01
diverse_izzuestarwind, it is possible that the guest additions are not ready yet for karmic00:01
diverse_izzuewhen jaunty was in developtment it was the same00:01
starwindah, shame :(00:02
diverse_izzuedoes the X log reveal anything?00:02
starwindlol...it's blank?  @_@00:03
starwindi swear I can't do anything right..00:03
diverse_izzuewhat is blank? your Xorg.0.log is empty?00:04

starwindno can't find anything00:14
starwind:(00:14
diverse_izzuethen it's maybe using the vesa driver?00:14
starwindyeah it mentioned the vesa driver00:14
diverse_izzueall right, then for some reason it can't find the x driver00:15
diverse_izzuesorry, i don't know what's going wrong. maybe try the virtualbox forums00:15

slacker_nlis there a way to find out which repo was used for a particular package?00:38

crimsunapt-cache policy00:42
crimsunit's not very useful for PPAs, but that's why the recommended policy is to use the PPA name in the version string00:42
slacker_nlcrimsun: let me clarify, for all packages00:43
slacker_nlala dpkg -l --show_repo00:43
slacker_nlor something like that00:43
slacker_nlcrimsun: i don't use it for ppa's00:43
slacker_nlwant to know which packages come from -proposed00:44
crimsunif you don't use it for PPAs, then just use apt-cache policy as suggested in multiple irc channels00:44
slacker_nlguess i have to00:44
slacker_nlbummer00:44
crimsun"have to"? is it strenuous or something?00:45
slacker_nlwell, create a list of all packages, apt-cache policy them, grep for proposed, list the ones from proposed00:45
slacker_nli was hoping something like you can do with stat, stat -c "%n %a %u %g" $file, but then for all installed packages00:46
crimsunor you could pin to the non-proposed, e.g., jaunty, and attempt to downgrade00:48
crimsuni.e., use apt pinning to get a list of the packages that would be downgraded/warned00:48
=== BUGabundo1 is now known as BUGabundo
slacker_nlahh, see what you mean00:53
slacker_nlthe ones that need downgrading will be from proposed00:53

xcdfgkjhgcvWill Banshee replace Rhythmbox as the default music player?01:03
jacobprobably next cycle... I think?01:03
jacobit was set to go if Banshee was ready by feature freeze01:04
jacobbut it isn't01:04
xcdfgkjhgcvWhy? Is Banshee superior in some way?01:05
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: it has a more active upstream development01:05
jacobthe rhythmbox maintainer announced that he probably won't work on it much past bug fixing01:06
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: And that's the only reason?01:06
bjsnidera mono app is not going to become a default gnome app01:06
jacobbjsnider: you sure about that?01:06
xcdfgkjhgcvBecause it's already perfect?01:06
jacobbjsnider: I take it you haven't seen Tomboy or F-Spot, both of which are Mono applications, are included with GNOME, and are on the default Ubuntu installation01:07
jacobfor what it's worth, Rhythmbox is not a GNOME module either.01:07
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: there were other reasons; I'd have to find the notes on it01:08
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Upstream/Banshee#Banshee%20by%20Default%20Work01:08
jacobI prefer the interface of Banshee to RB, but I'll agree that it needs some work. Missing crossfade and Last.fm is currently broken. :-!01:09
bjsniderjacob, if core gnome apps don't need gtk, then i guess a qt app could make it in too01:09
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: that's the page01:09
jacobbjsnider: ..what?01:09
kklimondaxcdfgkjhgcv: banshee is a better media player but untill all bugs are fixed it's not going to replace rhythmbox01:09
jacobF-Spot, Banshee, and Tomboy are all GTK+ apps01:09
kklimondaxcdfgkjhgcv: as feature freeze is in 13 days I'd say banshee won't make it this time01:10
jacobbjsnider: The GTK bindings for Mono are no different than GTK bindings for Python or C++01:10
kklimondaxcdfgkjhgcv: banshee has a better media player support, better user interface..01:10
xcdfgkjhgcvI can't get DAAP music sharing to work with Rhythmbox. :(01:10
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: Banshee can't share over DAAP to begin with, heh01:11
kklimondabjsnider: rhythmbox isn't a gnome application so we can change it01:11
kklimondawell, we could do it anyway..01:11
jacobwhich makes me wonder why it isn't on that list...01:11
danbhfiveanyone know how to check that acpi is functioning properly?  I think that on alpha3, my fan was failing to speed up appropriately...01:11
crimsunjacob: current git head is broken, or 1.5.0 in ~banshee-unstable-team's PPA is broken, or ...?01:14
jacobcrimsun: last.fm you mean? broken in 1.5.0 iirc (probably earlier as well)01:15
jacobhaven't checked git01:15
bjsniderif you download gnome directly from the source tarballs, what is included?01:15
bafflejacob: I think you are supposed to maybe run Tangerine to share your library over DAAP. It imports the library from Banshee.01:15
jacobbug 397674 is on last.fm I believe01:15
ubottuLaunchpad bug 397674 in banshee "banshee can no longer play last.fm streams" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/39767401:15
crimsunhmm01:16
jacobbaffle: yes, though it would be nice to have as a Banshee plugin. the version of tangerine packaged in the archives doesn't work with banshee 1.5.0+ either; don't know about the later releases from this week01:16
kklimondacrimsun: hiding behind other nick so people won't bug you about audio? it won't work, you can't hide from us ;)01:17
jacobbjsnider: you want the default modules list?01:17
crimsunkklimonda: you need to rebuild w/ the latest changes01:17
crimsunkklimonda: see also the ~ubuntu-audio-dev PPA01:18
bafflejacob: I think it just got a new maintainer, and he is just getting his feet wet afaik.01:18
kklimondacrimsun: should I upgrade all packages that I can using this ppa and build newer kernel from your audio-fixes branch?01:18
jacobbaffle: that's what I thought, but I haven't tried the release at all. right now I've been using mt-daapd.01:18
bafflejacob: I'm using mt-daapd as well. It seems to work "ok".01:18
bjsniderjacob, i thought gnome included a default app to do any task, but i must be wrong01:18
crimsunkklimonda: yes, and yes. you should only get an updated udev and pulseaudio, anyhow.01:19
crimsun(well, udev- and pulseaudio-related)01:19
crimsunkklimonda: i hope you're using ccache for those kernel builds...01:19
jacobbjsnider: "to do any task"? not sure I understand01:19
jacobbaffle: yeah, I have to restart it manually after a system reboot or it won't advertise its shares.01:20
kklimondacrimsun: sure - I've learned that ccache is a must when I work with packages and other big piles of code :)01:20
bjsniderjacob, in other words, a text editor, an audio player, a movie player, a file manager, a picture viewer et al.01:20
bafflejacob: But if I understand correctly, things like covers are not collected/shared by mt-daapd (not sure if that even is supported?). Is that part of the UPnP protocol, and not DAAP?01:20
bafflejacob: Actually, mt-daapd doesn't always start at all. Sometimes it doesn't announce shares (actually, that seems to happen randomly, I might have to restart my clients a few times) but it also seems to just segfault at start; Have to try 1-3 times to get it to run.01:21
jacobbjsnider: I'm not sure to be honest. they include anything that meets their standards and probably doesn't duplicate other features01:22
bjsnideri'm saying i doubt you'll see gnome's tarballs include mono apps01:22
jacobbaffle: I didn't think DAAP sent covers, but I could be wrong. are you using the version from karmic or jaunty?01:22
jacobbjsnider: but they *do*! :)01:22
xcdfgkjhgcvI like Rhythmbox and dislike Banshee.01:23
jacobsince a few releases back01:23
bjsniderbut then the target system would need to have mono on it01:23
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: fair enough. :P01:23
jacobbjsnider: yes, Mono is an external dependency01:23
xcdfgkjhgcvAm I stupid for liking Rhythmbox's GUI?01:23
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: no, I like it too. I like Banshee's better, but RB's isn't bad.01:24
bafflejacob: Of what?01:24
bafflejacob: mt-daap?01:24
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: I like Rhythmbox's better01:24
bafflejacob: Jaunty.01:24
jacobBanshee has one killer feature for me: equalizer.01:24
kklimondacrimsun: ok, building right now - I'm going to test it tomorrow as I'm too tired right now to play with kernel.. last time I've done it I had to use LiveCD to fix my mistake :)01:24
jacobbaffle: yeah, I'm using the karmic version. looks like there have been packaging modifications01:25
kklimondacrimsun: also mplayer isn't really working with pulseaudio when I have -ao alsa..01:25
bjsniderkklimonda, wha?01:25
bjsnidermplayer works fine with alsa01:25
kklimondacrimsun: after few pause/play cycles I get weird PA errors. I'll try to get them now01:25
bafflejacob: Packaging modifications? Not following here.01:25
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: Does Rhythmbox have an equaliser?01:25
crimsunkklimonda: make sure you're using the ~ubuntu-audio-dev PPA01:25
crimsuni push changes (fixes) there much faster than to the repo01:25
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: you can actually make banshee look like rhythmbox by selecting View > Browser on Top01:25
bjsniderkklimonda, you're using an external DAC?01:26
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: not officially. there are some hackish plugins, but none of them I've found work very well.01:26
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: I wish you told me that before I just uninstalled it.01:26
bafflejacob: I'm using the banshee-unstable-team PPA tho'. :)01:26
kklimondabjsnider: no - the simplest integrated laptop card ;)01:26
jacobbaffle: debian changes. probably things to do with the init scripts01:26
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: lol ^_^01:26
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: I'll give it another test.01:27
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: try it out for a day. mess with the preferences, plugins, etc, and see if you like it.01:27
bjsniderkklimonda, not sure why use alsa if you're not going to do passthrough01:27
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: Sure.01:27
jacobfolder watch is missing though, but is supposed to be available soon I hear01:27
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: I remember I used it years ago on OpenSuse 10.101:27
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: it has certainly evolved a lot from that01:28
kklimondabjsnider: crimsun has said that using alsa ao (and not pulse) in mplayer is the right way.01:28
jacobdev version (1.5.0 or git) has a Rhythmbox importer as well01:28
kklimondajacob: and what about gio support?01:29
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: I can't make a third viewing pane for genre.01:29
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: So it's not the same as my Rhythmbox.01:30
jacobwhile we're talking about audio.. anyone notice a problem with flash audio lag? video sites (youtube, dailymotion, etc) are fine, just interactive applets are off by a second or so. say it's adobe's fault and call it a day? :P01:30
bjsnideri doubt it's adobe's fault01:30
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: I think there's a setting to show it01:30
bjsnideradobe never does anything wrong01:30
jacobbjsnider: lol01:30
jacobkklimonda: gio in banshee? don't know.01:31
xcdfgkjhgcvbjsnider: Flash is shit.01:31
bafflejacob: But it is really irritating that there is no DLNA/UPnP plugin in banshee; I think someone started work ages ago..01:31
jacobbaffle: yeah, I agree there.01:31
bjsnideris there one in rhythmbox?01:32
jacobbjsnider: yep, as well as a DAAP share host01:32
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: I can't find the setting01:32
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: neither can I... could have sworn it was there01:32
xcdfgkjhgcvAlthough I am using the version included in Jaunty.01:32
bafflebjsnider: Yeah, there is DLNA support in Rythmbox; But my DLNA server (I'm trying coherence here) doesn't show up.. :-/01:33
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: I like my four pane music browsing.01:33
jacobbaffle: installed python-coherence, right?01:33
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: hehe, you don't _have_ to like it. just suggesting to give it a try. :)01:34
bjsniderthey all look the saem. rhythmbox, listen, banshee01:34
bjsniderexaile01:34

jacobbaffle: weird. never had a problem with that01:36
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: I think it should be added to the requirements before including as default in Ubuntu as it'd be a feature regression to some.01:36
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: pretty sure it will be there. judging by that bug it should be in 1.6, which should be out well before feature freeze for karmic+1. (but not karmic.)01:37
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: I'm still searching for a music player which supports multiple genres.01:38
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: Without being shit in lots of other ways.01:38
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: there are a bunch out there.. exaile, amarok, listen, quod libet01:38
xcdfgkjhgcvSince when did Amarok implement it?01:39
xcdfgkjhgcvQuod Libet is shit in a few ways.01:39
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: i have no idea if they have. just shooting out random app names.01:39
bafflejacob: Wich version are you running?01:40
xcdfgkjhgcvIt'd be brilliant if Rhythmbox had the feature.01:40
bjsniderxcdfgkjhgcv, what about "listen"?01:40
jacobbaffle: of rhythmbox? 0.12.3, but I haven't used it in quite some time01:40
jacoblisten was the perfect music player except it was missing one feature... but I don't remember what it was.01:41
jacobthink it was play queues or something.01:41
bafflejacob: No, sorry, of python-coherence.01:42
xcdfgkjhgcvbjsnider: It has support for multiple genres per track?01:42
bjsnideri don't know01:43
jacobbaffle: haven't used it in karmic, sorry.01:43
jacobbaffle: you might be able to find information on it in the coherence package changelog, though: http://is.gd/2fRVE01:44
xcdfgkjhgcvRhythmbox is currently my preferred music player for my 10,000 track collection.01:49
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: hey, no one is forcing you to change. just the default install next release might. :)01:50
jacobthat is: might change, not force you to change01:50
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: If Banshee is included in 10.04 LTS, without feature regressions, I will happily switch.01:51
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: as far as I understand, Banshee will be included when it is feature-par with RB.01:51
kklimondajacob: not exactly01:52
kklimondajacob: there may be some small regressions01:52
xcdfgkjhgcvkklimonda: I hope not.01:52
xcdfgkjhgcvIt must be equal or greater in every way.01:52
bjsniderif it's perfectly bug-free i'll use it01:52
kklimondajacob: like in empathy case - it's not a full replacement for pidgin and ekiga01:52
jacobkklimonda: understandable, nobody needs a visualizer anyway :D01:53
jacobkklimonda: good point01:53
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: Good point.01:53
xcdfgkjhgcvI HATE Empathy.01:53
xcdfgkjhgcvEmpathy doesn't have all my Pidgin plugins.01:53
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: heh. I like it for getting out of my way.01:54
jacoband not being stupid about how it stores passwords..01:54
akioi prefer empathy01:54
kklimondaxcdfgkjhgcv: and most people don't use any plugins.01:54
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: Elaborate.01:54
xcdfgkjhgcvkklimonda: Bullshit.01:54
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: about the passwords part or the "getting out of my way" part?01:54
xcdfgkjhgcvI love my autospellingfix, IRC, album save, Facebook chat, etc01:54
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: Both.01:55
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: most of this isn't evident until karmic, but empathy has a lot of desktop integration features. you can share lots of things with contacts: location, display, and soon even your banshee library01:56
jacobthat's mostly the telepathy framework I understand, though.01:56
jacobI also found it much easier to set up than pidgin, personally.01:57
jacobas for the passwords, take a look at ~/.purple/accounts.xml. hello, passwords!01:57
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: Mine is encrypted.01:57
kklimonda:001:57
kklimonda:)01:57
jacobempathy/telepathy stores them in the gnome keyring, which is not in plain text (I believe it is encrypted by your login passphrase.)01:58
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: possible, I guess. I haven't been using pidgin since April01:58
jacobor May, more likely.01:58
jacobempathy also has a more response upstream in the same manner banshee does.01:59
jacobresponsive*01:59
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: I meant that my ~/ is encrypted.02:00
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: ah. well that's a different story, hah02:00
jacobdoesn't stop a stray shell script from taking a peek at your passwords though.02:00
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: So where does Empathy store the passwords?02:01
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: the gnome keyring. I don't remember the file location, but see applications > passwords & encryption keys.02:02
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: Doesn't that require you to enter a passphrase, though?02:03
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: it's unlocked by your login passphrase when you sign in02:03
jacobhttp://live.gnome.org/GnomeKeyring has a lot more info on it02:03
nhasianare you guys able to do dvd playback with a fresh install of Karmic Alpha 4?02:06
xcdfgkjhgcvWhy is the Remote Desktop Viewer so abysmally slow?02:06
jacobnhasian: with unencrypted dvds yes. gstreamer has menu support now.02:07
nhasianxcdfgkjhgcv, probably because xdamage is off02:07
* jacob tried it with an on-ride dvd of cedar point :P02:07
hggdhanyway, the keyrings should be under ~/.gnome2 somewhere02:08
nhasianwhat about a regular store bought movie dvd?  i couldnt get either totem or vlc to play it02:08
jacobhggdh: ah, yep. ~/.gnome2/keyrings/login.keyring02:08
jacobnhasian: you probably need libdvdcss02:08
hggdhjacob, yes indeed, and all other keyrings you may create02:09
nhasianjacob, yeah i installed that02:09
hggdhinteresting. Just accessed my user-encrypted ~./Private under root. And root reads it all02:11
* hggdh wonders about that...02:12
histohggdh: shouldnt' root be able to?02:12
jacobhggdh: probably because it's mounted. unmount it and try again02:12
hggdhhisto, no, to my understanding, *any other* user should not be able to02:12
hggdhjacob, yes, I believe this would work. But, still this is an *user*-encrypted fs02:13
jacobhggdh: if you sign out and try to login as root (ie, recovery mode) you won't be able to without the mount passphrase.02:13
jacobhggdh: that is, if you're using ecryptfs02:14
jacobwhen your ~/Private directory is mounted, the only thing preventing access is unix access controls.02:14
hggdhjacob, that's good. Yes, I am running ecryptfs. But I, frankly, expected the fs to be mounted un-encrypted just for the user02:14
hggdhwhich is, obviously now, a mis-undertanding from my part. Still...02:15
jacobhggdh: in the event that someone gets ahold of your system, it will do the right thing. don't worry about it ;)02:16
xcdfgkjhgcvhggdh: I encountered the same confusion.02:16
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: I bloody well hope so.02:16
xcdfgkjhgcvI've got lots of private images on my laptop.02:16
jacob>.<02:16
hggdhTMI?02:17
xcdfgkjhgcvDon't be childish.02:17
hggdh:-)02:17
hggdhStill. I would like ecryptfs to limit access to the user holding the credentials, not any user. This would be better.02:18
* hggdh considers it is really time to dive into the ecrytfs design decisions02:19
jacobhggdh: change the permissions on your private directory. there's nothing that can prevent root from looking while it's mounted02:19
jacobsave jailing root with apparmor or something.02:20
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: What if someone gets control of my root?02:20
hggdhjacob, this is exactly the point. If it is user-mounted, it should be user-restricted02:20
jacobyour private directory, by default, actually has rwx------ permissions set, so it's really fine.02:21
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: while your system is running? I'd certainly hope not...02:21
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: What if they steal my laptop and turn it on?02:21
hggdhxcdfgkjhgcv, it will still be encrypted, and unaccessible02:22
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: they can't decrypt anything without the mound passphrase, which is in turn encrypted by your login passphrase02:22
jacobthere's nothing root can do in that situation.02:22
jacobs/mound/mount/02:22
xcdfgkjhgcvSo the security of my data hinges entirely on the security of my login password?02:22
jacobin a way, yes.02:22
hggdha possible problem is if your laptop is stolen while still powered on (and your id locked)02:23
hggdhthen an attack is easy02:23
xcdfgkjhgcvSo using a weak password such as "Iluvdolphins" would make it really easy for people to get at my data?02:23
jacobyour actual encryption passphrase is in ~/.ecryptfs (different before karmic)02:23
xcdfgkjhgcvhggdh: Why?02:23
hggdhxcdfgkjhgcv, using easy passwords makes it really easy on an attack02:23
jacob~/.ecryptfs/wrapped-passphrase to be specific. _that's_ encrypted by your login password02:24
xcdfgkjhgcvhggdh: Why is a possible problem is if your laptop is stolen while still powered on (and your id locked)?02:24
hggdhxcdfgkjhgcv, there are known attacks on powered-on machines. A bit of work, but I guess by now is would be already scripted02:24
avihaybbtw, why don't I have a folder called privet? I installed 8.10 and all...?02:24
xcdfgkjhgcvhggdh: RAM attacks?02:25
hggdhyes02:25
jacobavihayb: IIRC this isn't until 9.04. any you have to have ecryptfs-setup-private installed.02:25
xcdfgkjhgcvhggdh: I know of them.02:25
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: Where is it in Jaunty?02:25
avihaybthe alternate 8.10 disk gave me that option02:25
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: /var/lib/ecryptfs, I think.02:26
jacobhttp://blog.dustinkirkland.com/2009/08/moving-your-encrypted-home-meta-data.html by the way.02:26
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: And it's the encrypted form of my passphrase?02:27
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: yep. your passphrase was generated when you set up encryption.02:27
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: So if they crack my login password, they can use it to decrypt my wrapped-passphrase and get the key needed to mount my directory and steal my data?02:29
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: yep.02:29
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: But they can also crack the hash and get the key without messing with the login password.02:29
jacobthat's a good reason why you shouldn't use your logon password anywhere online.02:30
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: bleh, not very easily. it's near impossible to tell if you have the right passphrase.02:30
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: So I need a strong login password and a strong mount password for good security.02:30
hggdhxcdfgkjhgcv, you certainly should seriously consider a strong login passphrase02:31
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: your mount password is likely already strong. 32 characters I think.02:31
hggdhand, as jacob pointed out, not use it anywhere else02:31
jacobbe careful changing your login password though.02:31
jacoberr.02:31
xcdfgkjhgcvjacob: Why?02:32
hggdhcuz your ecryptfs passphrase is encrypted with your login passphrase02:32
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: if you change your login password, you'll need to re-wrap / re-encrypt that wrapped passphrase02:32
xcdfgkjhgcvhggdh: So by finding out my login passphrase, the attacker can easily decrypt my cryptfs passphrase?02:33
hggdhwell, by finding your login passphrase all one needs to do is login :-)02:34
jacob^02:34
xcdfgkjhgcvhggdh: I was just thinking that.02:34
xcdfgkjhgcvSo I MUST have a good login passphrase.02:34
jacobanyway. I probably should get some work done, heh.02:35
hggdhif you store sensitive data (as I do, customer data & personal), yes02:35
xcdfgkjhgcvSo "iluvdolphins" isn't particularly strong?02:35
hggdhcould be better02:35
xcdfgkjhgcvhggdh: I store sensitive jpegs.02:35
xcdfgkjhgcvAnd some AVIs.02:35
jacobxcdfgkjhgcv: http://goodpassword.com/ click generate password. that's a good password.02:35
DanaGhere's the visualizer I use: extace.02:36
DanaGCrashes with libfftw from karmic, though.02:36
DanaGI had to downgrade the package.02:36

xcdfgkjhgcvWhy isn't there some kind of notification tool for Evolution included with Ubuntu? How am I supposed to know when I've got new mail?03:00
stabu2weee03:00
giovanihaha03:00
giovanieww, evolution03:01
akioxcdfgkjhgcv, that would be a function of evolution, not ubuntu03:01
giovaniuh, mail-notification-evolution sir03:02
giovaniI don't know what's so complicated03:02
xcdfgkjhgcvgiovani: Because it doesn't work.03:02
stabu2akio, i get a fatal error03:03
giovanixcdfgkjhgcv: I don't know what "it doesn't work" means ...03:03
xcdfgkjhgcvgiovani: I don't want to have to open Evolution just to check my mail.03:03
giovanixcdfgkjhgcv: uh, what?03:03
giovanithat's what the mail-notification-evolution package is for ...03:04
akiostabu2, use pastebin03:04
xcdfgkjhgcvgiovani: The notification doesn't work unless Evolution is running.03:04
giovanito place an icon on your taskbar03:04

giovanievolution is your mail application ... this is how computers work03:04
giovaniif you want a non-evolution mail checker app -- there are dozens, pick one03:04
akiogiovani, is Jean-Yves Lefort Ubuntu?03:04
xcdfgkjhgcvThen why is Evolution included by default?03:04
giovanibut clearly evolution can't notify you of new mail unless evolution is running03:05
giovanixcdfgkjhgcv: because it's a popular email client03:05
xcdfgkjhgcvgiovani: Then make it minimise to tray or only run whilst mail is being checked.03:05
akioxcdfgkjhgcv, because the novell guys had some push03:05
giovanixcdfgkjhgcv: you clearly don't know how applications function03:05
xcdfgkjhgcvBut I don't want it cluttering up my desktop 24/7 for no reason.03:05
xcdfgkjhgcvgiovani: I clearly do.03:05
akiouse mutt03:06
stabu2akio its ok, im dumb and forgot sudo03:06
giovanixcdfgkjhgcv: no, clearly not -- this isn't an ubuntu problem ... this is a mail-applications-have-to-be-running-in-order-to-check-for-new-mail problem03:06
giovaniif you'd like to use a different mail application, feel free -- there are dozens03:06
xcdfgkjhgcvgiovani: I know that.03:06
xcdfgkjhgcvgiovani: But it doesn't need to be running 24/7, only when checking for mail.03:07
giovanixcdfgkjhgcv: that's not logical03:07
xcdfgkjhgcvgiovani: Why not?03:07
scizzo-xcdfgkjhgcv: you are not making much sense here03:07
giovanithat requires a cronjob, and it's a stupid wy to run a gui mail application03:07
giovanian application can't launch itself03:07
xcdfgkjhgcvgiovani: Sure it can.03:07
giovaniabsolutely not03:07
xcdfgkjhgcvWith the aid of a notifier program.03:07
giovanino, that's a notifier application launching another application03:08
giovanithat's not the same thing03:08
xcdfgkjhgcvIt makes perfect sense to me.03:08
xcdfgkjhgcvgiovani: It's what I meant.03:08
giovanievolution doesn't work that way -- neither does any major mail application03:08
xcdfgkjhgcvgiovani: We need some sort of notification for Evolution.03:08
giovanithis is not ubuntu-specific03:08
giovanievolution has notifications built in03:08
xcdfgkjhgcvgiovani: Then we must fix that.03:08
giovanithat's not what you want03:08
akiogiovani, mine does03:08
giovanino, we don't03:08
akioI use cgmail and Gmail03:08
xcdfgkjhgcvgiovani: Yes, we do.03:08

xcdfgkjhgcvgiovani: akio has a notifier which launches a mail program which isn't running 24/703:10
xcdfgkjhgcvBut I want one for a non-webmail program.03:10
xcdfgkjhgcvEvolution, for example.03:10
giovanixcdfgkjhgcv: that's not specific to evolution, or ubuntu03:10
giovanithere are dozens of pop/imap checking apps that can function the way you want03:10
giovaniuse any one of them03:10
akioxcdfgkjhgcv, you may be thinking of a tray function that hides the main gui03:11
giovaniakio: he claims he doesn't want evolution running at all03:11
xcdfgkjhgcvakio: Yes, I am. But preferably without the program running and using resources.03:11
giovanixcdfgkjhgcv: then you want a mail-checkign tray application -- there are sozens03:11
giovanidozens*03:11
akioxcdfgkjhgcv, you use a less hungry mail app03:12
akiothere are probably more mail apps than you would like to go through03:12
xcdfgkjhgcvBut I want it integrated with Evolution so that it opens my mail in Evolution when I click it.03:12
stabu2there i put it on pastebin03:12
giovanixcdfgkjhgcv: that doesn't exist afaik -- talk to the evolution developers -- this isn't relevant for an ubuntu channel03:13
giovanicGmail is an imap/pop checking app that will launch evolution (or any other mail application you choose)03:13
akiostabu2, you are going to want to browse over the Xorg.conf manpage03:13
giovanihowever, it will not "integrate" with evolution03:13
hggdhalthough I can understand the idea, I am not sure it is in Evolution interest to develop such an interface03:14
akioX only needs a very small set of options to run03:14
akioit guesses most accurately03:14
xcdfgkjhgcvgiovani: Then I've identified a gap in the market.03:14
stabu2i think its my monitor03:14
giovanixcdfgkjhgcv: it's not a "market"03:14
xcdfgkjhgcvhggdh: Why not?03:14
stabu2i have the same machine at work but on a different monitor03:14
xcdfgkjhgcvgiovani: It's a figure of speech.03:14
akioxcdfgkjhgcv, it is really a gap in the way you are attempting to assert logic03:14
giovanibut feel free to solve it03:14
giovanihaha03:15
stabu2akio, what am i looking for?03:15
xcdfgkjhgcvgiovani: Sure. I'll get to work as soon as I wake up.03:15
hggdhxcdfgkjhgcv, Evolution already checks email. Why would we develop an utility to check email *then* call Evo, if Evo already does it?03:15
scizzo-xcdfgkjhgcv: no matter what I would bring this up with the evolution developers or add it as a wishlist function03:16
xcdfgkjhgcvhggdh: Synaptic checks for package updates, but I don't want to open it to update my system. I want to be notified when I get mail.03:16
scizzo-xcdfgkjhgcv: not with the ubuntu team03:16
giovanixcdfgkjhgcv: and cgmail will work the same way as the updates notifier app03:17
giovaniso if you like that functionality, use cgmail03:17
hggdhxcdfgkjhgcv, update-manager* checks for updates & download them, not synaptic03:17
akiostabu2, you want to look for modeline and the monitor and modes section03:17
xcdfgkjhgcvgiovani: I'll have a look at it.03:17
* DanaG uses gnubiff03:17
DanaGhandy thing that can be a panel applet.03:18
xcdfgkjhgcvhggdh: Did I not explain my point clearly enough?03:18
DanaGAnd I have it set to "quack" when I have a new message.03:18
akioyou may be able to use http://xtiming.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/xtiming.pl03:18
xcdfgkjhgcvhggdh: It makes more sense to be notified about new mail than having to check it for yourself.03:18
hggdhxcdfgkjhgcv, as far as I can understand it, yes.03:18
hggdhMy only point is I do not see Evo developing it.03:18
DanaGgnubiff will even show you the subject lines of the messages.03:19
stabu2wow03:19
giovanixcdfgkjhgcv: with evolution (or any other normal mail application) you don't have to check for mail manually -- it does so in the background, at regular intervals; outlook, thunderbird, evolution, kmail all work this way03:19
* akio oooh03:19
hggdhEvo development resources are already limited with the amount of work we have to do03:19
giovaniyou want a different feature that none of those applications support either03:19
giovaniso either code it yourself, or speak to the people in charge of the application, not to anyone here03:19
hggdhwell, he is speaking with one that deals upstream -- myself03:20
giovanihggdh: you're an evolution developer?03:20
hggdhgiovani, no, I do not write code for Evo, but I am involved in the project03:21
giovanihggdh: great -- then can you direct him to the proper support channel for the project?03:21
stabu2akio, i dont see a modeline03:22
hggdhheh. #evolution at gimp.net, or evolution-list@gnome.org03:22
akiostabu2, press "/" while you are reading the manpage to search in less03:22
hggdhbut -- again -- I do understand the argument. There are some options elsewhere.03:23
akiostabu2, try the modeline generator first, it is quick - you can learn the xorg.conf later03:23
stabu2i used that site03:23
akiodid you generate a xorg.conf earlier?03:24
stabu2yeah thats what i put on pastebin03:24
akiopastebin the stuff from the generator03:26

stabu2i still dont understand why i didnt have a xorg.confat first03:39
xim_anyone kinda familiar with audio encoding and codecs and bitrates?03:39
jats1xim_: a little03:40
akiostabu2, from what I understand the project is trying to minimize configuration if favor of automatic detection03:40
akioin*03:40
xim_im trying playing with settings for converting mp3s to mp4s in a program called fubar (actually windows), i notice it still allows me to set the bitrate when in VBR (which i assume stands for variable bit rate), yet when i select 20kbps convert it and check the file it comes out7kbps,  when i do 55kbps it comes out 13kbps, very strange,  i gues im wondering if its normal to like set a ballpark bitrate and then VBR changes as nece03:44
xim_ssary to maintain the nyquist rate or what03:44
akiostabu2, http://pastebin.com/d95c98bf03:44
xim_foobar*03:44
akiothere03:44
akioI didn't lie03:44
stabu2thanks03:45
akioI took my own medecine.03:45
akiomedicine03:45
akioxim_, that really is an encoder question03:46
jats1xim_: VBR varies the bitrate based on how much is needed(how complex the sound is at a given point). I'm not sure how fubar's encoder works, but I believe VBR the bitrate you set is a ballpark. If you want it to vary based on what's needed and still maintain a certain bit rate, use ABR(average bit rate). And yes, this probably doesn't belong in #ubuntu+1.03:48
xim_the strange thing is that its defintally losing a TON of frequencies dropping it all the way down to 7k, its spoken word tho so ~20k should be decent enough, but i figure if it had algorithms to set the vbr to the minimal necessary level it would realize how bad its getting screwed up going down to 703:49
xim_lol sry i thought i clicked #ubuntu-offtopic03:49
xim_#ubuntu+1 is like the LAST place to ask about audio encoding on a windows app03:50

bjsniderbut i don't think it doesnw aht i want04:38
DanaGhmm, what do you want it to do?04:42
DanaGYou can set it so double- (or more usually, triple-)clicking it opens the mail client.04:43
bjsnideri just want an app that's exactly like gmail-notify except it does hotmail and yahoo and whatever else. i just want it to ping a server, not keep anything local. i want all mail to stay in the cloud04:44
DanaGYou can set it to do IMAP.04:44

mac__vjacob: actually google didnt help me :( i had trid earlier04:49
jacobthe version in the archives might suit better.. however I cannot get it to run04:49
mac__vjacob: how is it supposed to work , as a separate session? or ?04:50
jacobmac__v: run with --replace you can have it replace gnome-panel and metacity04:50

binarymutantI can't get libnotify to work in karmic :/13:49
BluesKajjust found a grub2 bug after an update ...the timeout is set to "0" . which is ok for those without other OS partitions13:49
BluesKajby default13:50
BluesKajwhoever decided the default should be "0" secs , should reconsider13:51

cdE|WoozyBluesKaj: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2009-August/000599.html13:55

loonyphoenixHey, does anybody else find Totem's feature "Seeking with the keyboard keys (Left and Right arrow) in Totem does not seek the same amount of time" annoying? Please help me convince Gnome developers that it's not a universally accepted feature: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59179714:09
ubottuGnome bug 591797 in Movie player "The option to disable the feature "Seeking with the keyboard keys (Left and Right arrow) in Totem not seek the same amount of time"" [Enhancement,Resolved: notabug]14:09
BluesKajcdE|Woozy, if you're interested the timeout can be reset in  /boot/grub/grub.cfg , even tho there is a warning that it's a self generated cfg file , one can still do careful effective edits to fix little bugs like the default timeout.14:13
BoohbahBluesKaj: that's not a bug, that's a feature14:16
cdE|WoozyBluesKaj, the proper way would be to edit /etc/default/grub and run update-grub afterwards :) otherwise you lose that setting at the next kernel update14:16
BluesKajBoohbah, feature , what purpose ?14:17
BluesKajcdE|Woozy, updateing grub resets the timeout to zero , so it has to be reset again to whatever number of seconds one wishes it to delay the default OS boot14:18
cdE|WoozyBluesKaj, that is why you should set the timeout value in /etc/default/grub rather than boot.cfg14:19
cdE|WoozyBluesKaj, update-grub generates the grub.cfg according to the values set in /etc/default/grub (amongst other files)14:20
BoohbahBluesKaj: to skip the grub menu if you choose to do so14:20
BluesKajwell, my /etc/default/grub shouldn't have changed but it obviously did , thx for the reminder14:21
BluesKajanyway i also had to reload my grub bootimage path as well14:22

skazi21101can somebody help me with sound. when i plug headpgones i don`t hear anything. and there is no switch to headphones in mixer22:37
skazi21101how can it be fixed&22:37
myk_robinsonhello. Can any of you advise as to whether USB transfer speed has been fixed/stabilized in Karmic?22:37
J-_Be careful with sound in gnome in Karmic. You'll either ruin your ears, headphones, or speakers. At least I could have wit hthe chipset I have22:38
skazi21101J-_: what can i do? there was three switches in 9.04? in 9.10 its nothing22:40
skazi21101J-_: may be there is the way to make it work?22:41
dotblankfor you all doubting flac22:41
dotblankhttp://imgur.com/OUbgn.png22:41
skazi21101dotblank: can you show configuration page&22:42
J-_skazi21101: Well, it looks like either they're trying to get rid of PCM since the rework of the audio mixer. I'd turn up the volume on master, and the volume would go outragiously high. The program volume went high that. There's no PCM volume slider. So what I did was ... got rid of gnome, installed kubuntu-desktop, and PCM seems to be working great. No real problems.22:42
J-_skazi21101: Other than that, I don't know how to fix it and it still looks like their still working on it.22:42
J-_they're*22:43
dotblankskazi21101, its nothing special22:43
dotblankskazi21101, just says it will output on digital but it doesnt it lies to me22:43
* J-_ was a Gnome user for 4 years, but since that problem I've switched since I can't live with audio like that as I need tunes to function proper. That and caffeine that is.22:44
skazi21101dotblank: i just want to know where the switches between speakers and headphones is22:44
dotblankskazi21101, are they usb headphones?22:44
J-_skazi21101: Check out different configurations, from what I remember there were a few different devices in the applet22:44
skazi21101no22:45
J-_Depends on the chip too I guess.22:45
dotblankwell i killed pulse22:45
skazi21101when i plug it. hear no sound. speakers work properly22:45
J-_!headphones22:46
ubottuSorry, I don't know anything about headphones22:46
J-_hrm.22:46
J-_!audio22:46
ubottuIf you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - On Jaunty, please check bug https://launchpad.net/bugs/330814 and help test the new kernel image22:46
skazi21101thanks22:46
J-_those factoids might not work though.22:46
J-_Be sure to proceed with caution. :)22:46

skazi21101DanaG: thanks.23:06
skazi21101DanaG: phones work properly:-D23:06
DanaGCool.  Yeah, the removal of the ALSA control sucks.23:07
DanaGIt hasn't been replaced with a real equivalent.23:07
DanaGOr rather, the replacement is not functionally equivalent.23:07
oddyWhats the official situation with the new theme for ubuntu+1?23:08
tretleWhats the status of the gdm theme which has been proposed for karmic here -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/Karmic/Boot/Demo23:08
BUGabundonothing new so far oddy23:08
tretle?23:08
tretleIs there any actual work done beyond mockups23:08
oddyBUGabundo: :( Ah well. No worries.23:09
DanaGBlack? bleh, that's gloomy.23:10
DanaGIt could use at least a slight brown or orange tint -- but only a minor tint.23:10
lamalexit is brown23:10
DanaGLike, somewhere between the two versions, in terms of color.23:10
gjlwell, i burned the disk again23:11
gjlno luck23:11
gjli've verified the md5 checksum of the iso23:11
oddyI dunno, DanaG, I'm tired of the brown/orange thing. I've made my Jaunty laptop all blue and I like it more. Thats why I was excited when Shuttleworth said maybe a new colour for Karmic.23:11
gjldoes anyone know what the user account for the live cd is?23:12
gjlbjsnider, i've got an nvidia 9300 built into the motherboard23:12
oddyubuntu and ubuntu isn't it?23:12

tretleHmmmm... is there any launchpad entry attached to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/Karmic/Boot/Demo23:14
gjlso i need to edit xorg.conf before i can boot the livecd?23:18

ikoniaDanaG: please try to control your language, we know what "wtf" means and don't need to see it23:21
* DanaG takes "it" to mean "what it means" -- "don't need to see what it means".23:21
DanaG23:21
DanaGI say, that's a bit overreactive.23:21
ikoniait's a polite request23:21
DanaGWhat should I say instead?  what the heck?  what the <what word goes here>?23:22
DanaG23:22
DanaGAnd bonus points if you can abbreviate it.23:22

bjsniderDanaG, your bluetooth headset works in linux?23:30
DanaGYeah, thanks to PulseAudio.23:30
DanaGAt least the new gnome-bluetooth thingy helps a lot.23:30
DanaGspeaking of PA... the daemon just died.23:31
DanaGThanks, pavucontrol!23:31
BUGabundoI rather we got blueman23:31
DanaGyeah, blueman is far better.23:31
BUGabundobut its broken now23:32

DanaGActually, there's a PPA for blueman, that I think still works.23:32
bjsnider"code should not be reached". that's helpful23:32
DanaGHappened when I hit "disconnect" in the menu for my headset.23:32
BUGabundobjsnider: like those easter egg: "if you are seing this, the world is over"23:34
BUGabundoor "the user should NEVER see this error"23:35
tretleI love pulse audio, was kinda sad to see the pa applet go in 9.04 and happy to see it back in 9.10 as is makes using mic's on through usb(webcam's) much easier23:35
tretlecouldnt figure out how to get it working with the previous applet23:36
DanaGMost literal easter egg I've ever seen in a game:23:36
dotblankhmm brasero doesnt seem to support video projects in karmic23:37
* DanaG is digging around for a link.23:37
DanaGdang, can't find it.  nevermind.23:44

DanaGargh, PA crashed... and it won't let me report the bug, because it's a PPA version.23:56
