LimCorehello15:16
LimCoreWhen using alsa or pulse, my computer farts quietly instead playing sound15:17
LimCoresince I didnt feed any beans to my computer, but I did upgrade (9.04 amd64) yesterday, I guess this could be related15:17
LimCoreis this a known problem?15:17
LimCoreonly /dev/dsp works15:18
LimCorewell, anyway - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/41864415:24
ubot4Launchpad bug 418644 in pulseaudio "Ubuntu 9.04 amd64 ALSA and Pulse stoped working after upgrade " [Undecided,New]15:24
LimCorehttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdepim/+bug/418649   this is important, it makes it hard to debug X problems15:35
ubot4Launchpad bug 418649 in kdepim "kmail floods .xsession-errors" [Undecided,New]15:35
=== maco_ is now known as MsMaco
hggdhLimCore, please, at least, state what version of kmail and Ubuntu you are running15:47
LimCorehggdh: as in the bug report, 9.04 amd64, fully up to date... this is obvious?16:30
hggdhLimCore, I may be missing something, but I see no '9.04' strings in there16:36
hggdhso, not obvious to me16:36
LimCoreah, the other bug16:37
LimCoreupdated16:37
hggdhLimCore, thank you16:38
hggdhLimCore, what about kmail? :-)16:39
LimCorehggdh: well, kmail floods my .xsession-errors with some bullshit16:55
LimCorethat looks like debug messages16:55
LimCoreunfrotunatelly then log stops working, and I can not see there why my session died (other bug)16:55
=== marjomercado is now known as marjo
hggdhLimCore, what kmail *version*? You should already know the drill: when opening a bug on a package, do give the versions used.17:08
LimCorejust refresh ;)17:09
LimCorealso, it is the version that is in 9.04 up to date17:10
hggdhLimCore, yes. Still, it has to be stated. Please do not assume everybody will know and expect the same you do.17:12
lfaraoneHey, Ubuntu-bug itself is crashing when I run it. How do I set it to verbose/debug mode so I can see what's going on?17:59
bdmurraylfaraone: are you getting any output when it crashes?18:08
lfaraonebdmurray: well, it calls firefox, which then crashes.18:09
lfaraone*firefox then crashes.18:09
lfaraonebdmurray: I have firefox running in the background. I can start new firefox windows with the "firefox http://someurl" command. But when apport/ubuntu-bug gets to the part where it hands off to firefox it dies with an X error18:10
bdmurrayso, the tab never gets opened by ubuntu-bug?18:11
lfaraonebdmurray: correct.18:12
lfaraonebdmurray: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/259380/18:12
lfaraonebdmurray: odd, the problem just went away.18:13
bdmurraywhy are using sudo?18:14
bdmurraylfaraone: why are you using sudo w/ ubuntu-bug?18:17
lfaraonebdmurray: well, I had tested it earlier to see if it crashed when run as root or if it was a problem with my local env vars. (my sudo is aliased to clear local variables other than DISPLAY)18:18
lfaraonebdmurray: it also crashed sans sudo.18:18
mac_v hmm... i have a weird problem, when i try to play sound in my user profile i can *not* get sound to play in 2 apps simultaneously , but when i create a new user , sound works fine and i can play several apps simultaneously! how do i solve this?18:46
LimCorehggdh: can we make kmail quickly to not full xsession-errors, because it stops me from reporting more important errors18:46
* LimCore is tired of users complaining, why you upgraded to 9.04, 8.10 was working better...18:50
LimCoreflash, sound, speed, firefox, all seems to be just worse in 9.04 somehow.  Most of which I reported in bugs btw.  Just observation18:51
LimCoreif something was apprently fixed (it works nowdays, didnt work before,  but we never traced the exact problem), I set status to fix released or invalid?18:53
hggdhLimCore, it would be Fix Released, unknown fix.19:02
hggdhLimCore, on the kmail: I do not usually deal with KDE (and do not run kmail), so all I can do here is guarantee the minimum data is available for someone to confirm19:03
hggdhfor the kmail bug, you may try to present your case to the #kubuntu channel19:05
LimCorethanks19:07
hggdhre. bug 418773 -- should I close it Invalid, or WONTFIX?19:25
ubot4Launchpad bug 418773 in ubuntu "[needs packaging] virtualbox, proprietary" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/41877319:25
* micahg was thinking that19:26
hggdhyeah. I personally think WONTFIX is more to the point, but...19:26
micahgdoes the sun license prevent redistribution?19:26
hggdhwell, the licence starts with "This license applies if you download the full VirtualBox binaries from the Downloads page."19:28
hggdhwhich can be constructed to mean "you can only download it from us.19:28
micahgyeah19:29
hggdhyes, it does restrict -- paragraph (3) states "any use beyond the provisions of paragraph (2) is prohibited. So, packaging is prohibited19:30
* micahg would think won't fix with that quoted19:31
micahganyways, sun provides a deb repo19:31
hggdhyes. Closed wontfix19:32
hggdhdammit, closed the wrong bug :-(19:33

mac_vpedro_: isnt bug Bug #417824 a medium importance bug? it impacts several core apps [panel,update manager, power manager]21:36
ubot4Launchpad bug 417824 in gnome-panel "Gnome-panel loads very late after session start" [Low,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/41782421:36
mac_veven session shutdown options are not displayed21:36
pedro_mac_v, how changing the importance would make a difference there?21:37
mac_vpedro_: not a difference for the bug , but i'm trying to understand :)21:38
mac_vas to the reasons for your choice21:38
pedro_mac_v, low is ok, you seems to be the only one facing the issue currently there's no confirmation from anybody else, and also i cannot reproduce the issue here locally21:38
greg-gstupid question: is there a performance hit if you have -dbgsym packages installed for an app?21:39
greg-gor performance difference?21:39
mac_vpedro_: hmm... hehe being to lone affectee  , nice ;)21:39
pedro_mac_v, haha yeah :-P21:40
pedro_greg-g, i don't think so... are you having problems with any of those packages?21:40
mac_v hmm... i have a weird problem, when i try to play sound in my user profile i can *not* get sound to play in 2 apps simultaneously , but when i create a new user , sound works fine and i can play several apps simultaneously! how do i correct this?21:40
mac_vpedro_: if you dont mind me saying , your "thanx for sending upstream" response template is grammatically wrong. i forgot the exact wording , but i noticed it in several bugs21:43
greg-gpedro_: no, just wondering outloud. :)21:44
pedro_mac_v, there's no template for it21:44
pedro_greg-g, ah good ;-)21:44
pedro_mac_v, do you want to make one? ;-)21:44
mac_vi think there is one , already , let me check21:45
greg-gI thought Bryce made one using grease monkey that automatically filled in the bug number, he blogged about it recently, I believe.21:47
mac_voh , there is no template , thats a different upstreamed one21:47
mac_vpedro_: "Thank you for taking the time to report this bug upstream."  how does that sound?21:50
pedro_mac_v, sounds good to me21:55
mac_vpedro_: should i add it to the responses page then?21:56
pedro_btw I've seen some reports where the reporter sent it upstream but didn't create an upstream task for it nor link it there21:56
pedro_would be nice to create an stock response for that case21:56
pedro_mac_v, sure, feel free to do it21:56
mac_vpedro_: how do we add for that? something that says, thank you but you should add it in the also affects link?21:58
pedro_we can point them to the nice documentation we currently have for that21:58
pedro_https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Watches21:59
AnAnt_Hello, can someone look at LP 39029221:59
ubot4Launchpad bug 390292 in console-setup "undefined kernel key code  ( in karmic a2)" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/39029221:59
mac_vpedro_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/259500/ is this OK?22:07
mac_vbdmurray: hi... ^ for a response to members who have submitted but not linked upstream bug in lp22:08
mac_vhm... i was thinking of using "learn" instead of "read" ,  would that sound harsh?22:10
greg-gmac_v: this is what I was thinking of: http://www2.bryceharrington.org:8080/drupal/upstream-cgi22:11
greg-gand this http://www2.bryceharrington.org:8080/drupal/stock-replies-tips22:11
bdmurraymac_v: http://paste.ubuntu.com/259503/22:13
mac_vbdmurray: sounds good :) , should i add it or ?22:15
mac_vgreg-g: we are actually talking about the same thing ;)22:15
bdmurraymac_v: that'd be great22:16
greg-gmac_v: ahh :) serves me right for not reading the back log completely :)22:16
mac_vbdmurray: http://filebin.ca/zmjt/bugsquad-replies.xml , i have added it to the end22:39
bcurtiswxdid that one guys wiki changes go into effect yet22:43
mac_vbcurtiswx: i think you got this mixed up> Bug #41027823:00
ubot4Launchpad bug 410278 in notify-osd "[Feature request]Allow empathy conversation window to be minimized to notification area" [Wishlist,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/41027823:00
mac_vbcurtiswx: notify-osd has nothing to do with the feature request23:00
bcurtiswxmac_v, i believe notify-osd is what takes care of that, not the applications themselves23:00
mac_vbcurtiswx: nope , notify-osd is just a notification daemon  , just displays the bubbles23:01
bcurtiswxthats indicator applet then.. right?23:01
mac_vbcurtiswx: that is different too , but works for me ;)23:02
bcurtiswxso it would belong with that23:02
bcurtiswxhmm, i guess i have always thought the goal of indicator applet was to allow apps to be minimized (like empathy,evolution,gwibber) the ones that provide more frequent updates...23:03
bcurtiswxbut i might be mistaken that the application has to support it on its own before it would work with the indicator applet23:03
mac_vyup23:04
bcurtiswxlemme see what the ayatana peeps have to say23:04
mac_vbcurtiswx: empathy does not have support for i-a yet :)23:04
bcurtiswxthat i know, and i am gonna go fix the bug depending on my chat with the ayatana peeps23:05
mac_vbcurtiswx: sure , great \o/23:05
bcurtiswxunless you already know the answer to my question and im just being dumb here :P23:07
mac_vbcurtiswx: minimizing is one of the features of messaging menu , but just has not been done by the devs :) , BTW the emapthy  Bug #34018023:08
ubot4Launchpad bug 340180 in empathy "Please provide indicator-applet support in empathy" [Wishlist,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/34018023:08
mac_vbcurtiswx: lol look who's here ;) > https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MessagingMenu#Unresolved%20issues23:09
mac_vi think mpt added your name from a question you asked somewhere :)23:09
bcurtiswxmac_v: yeah... and look whats still not done... i asked that a long time ago23:10
mac_vbcurtiswx: its not done because no dev has cared to do it , but mp wants to implement it23:10
bcurtiswxbut it looks like they want to push empathy into the indicator applet... hmm.. makes this a much more complicated bug23:10
mac_vbcurtiswx: pls fix it :)23:11
bcurtiswxi _could_ keep it open for both empathy and indicator applet.. in hopes one gets to it first23:11
mac_vbcurtiswx: last i heard from mpt , that was what he said  , thats why it has been added to the unresolved issues.23:12
bcurtiswxmac_v, look satisfactory to your liking now?23:17
hggdhdtchen, ping -- do you have a possible schedule?23:18
mac_vbcurtiswx: just a small fish , anything goes ,  :)23:18
bcurtiswxmac_v, i just want to make sure i put myself into your mindset well enough to get this to where you want it23:19
mac_vbcurtiswx: BTW , its mirco who gets frustrated when bugs are wrongly assigned to notify-osd23:19
bcurtiswxi will make sure to duck if he throws anything sharp at my head :D23:20
mac_vhehe , ;)23:23
