[00:00] <hggdh> er. #ubuntu-bugs-announce is back on. I am sorry, but we lost power for a good part of the day, due to storms
[01:31] <Hyper-X> in UNR, has anyhad their speakers not work?
[02:18] <rockstar> Would someone like to help me sleuth down a bug?  I have the symptoms, but I'm not sure what log files I should also attach (or look at the diagnose, for that matter)
[02:27] <andresmujica> rockstar: which are the symptoms?
[02:28] <rockstar> andresmujica, fresh Karmic install (daily iso build from last night).  When I try to log in through gdm, it gives me a little looping animation, then a black screen, and then I'm back to gdm again.
[02:28] <rockstar> I can log into xterm from gdm, but not gnome.
[02:29] <rockstar> Nothing obvious in .xsession-errors, but .xsession-errors.old says it can't connect to :0.0 - which is odd, since gdm presumable should start :0.0
[02:31] <rockstar> /var/log/X.org.log shows no errors at all.
[02:33] <andresmujica> hmmm maybe compiz or xorg are dying... it could be a permissions issue too... are you able to start the session selecting the xterm option (one different from gnome.. don't recall the options right now)
[02:33] <andresmujica> the can't connect to :0.0 seems to be an xorg dying...
[02:33] <rockstar> Yea, but I can't find the cause of Xorg dying, or I'd file a bug.
[02:34] <andresmujica> try to open a console session and tail -f .xsession-errors while login in so you can check the process.
[02:34] <andresmujica> if you want to, fill a bug with ubuntu-bug xorg
[02:35] <andresmujica> i need to reboot my system (long time without updates).. i'll be back in a few mins.
[02:41] <rockstar> I'd love to file a bug with ubuntu-bug, but I seem to have a chicken/egg issue. No X, no browser, no ubuntu-bug.  :/
[02:48] <jmarsden> rockstar: The CLI interface should work fine ... w3m or lynx or whatever text mode browser you have ought to work... what happens when you try?
[02:49] <andresmujica> brb... fsck.. mount time in the future...
[02:49] <jmarsden> rockstar: Try DISPLAY="" ubuntu-bug ...    so it *knows* you have no X.
[02:51] <rockstar> jmarsden, alright.  Still sleuthing for the problem.  Looks like it may be related to polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1.desktop
[09:24] <sbc> Hi everyone. I'm trying my hands at some of the unassigned bugs, as suggested here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/EasyTasks. I run into quite a few bugs regarding network cards - especially wireless cards. Looking over this list: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage I can't seem to find the right category for networks (or hardware in general). Where do I assign bugs related to network hardware not working?
[10:41] <gimpscape> hi
[10:42] <gimpscape> it looks like copying files using gnome-vfs is several times slower than with command line tools
[10:43] <gimpscape> I tried connecting to ftp and sftp via Places -> Connect to Server, and they both are slow as hell
[10:44] <gimpscape> the bug was reported first time in 2004, is it still not fixed???
[11:34] <^arky^> about bug 411991 : what is correct format for symlinks in .links file

[17:22] <cwillu> gimpscape, completely different implementation since then
[22:16]  * maxb blinks at bug 421371

[22:17] <maxb> Keybuk has some rather unusual and forceful opinions on duplicate handling
[22:56] <hggdh> rather aggressive, IMHO
