HaeginsServerBroHi, anyone able to help me recover an ubuntu karmic server install00:02
HaeginsServerBroit crashed earlier today and when I rebooted it grub gave errors00:03
HaeginsServerBroNow I'm booting off a unetbootin ubuntu image and it's giving me BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 61s! [depmod:775] errors00:04
HaeginsServerBrook, looks like it might have been a BIOS issue...00:08
DaekdroomWhich command access the GUI where I can config GDM?00:16
maxbDaekdroom: there is no such GUI00:27
Daekdroommaxb: thanks00:27
DaekdroomJust making sure I wasn't missing something.00:27
maxbSomeone is supposed to be writing one IIRC, but I'm pretty sure it's not arrived yet00:28
maxboh, actually00:28
maxbgdmsetup00:28
maxbbut it looks REALLY basic so far00:29
DaekdroomYeah. I checked it.00:29
DaekdroomSome versions ago it could configure almost anything.00:29
maxbYes, but gdm got a total rewrite upstream00:30

Aylahello01:10
AylaI lost the "gnome-sound-properties" program, which should be in the "gnome-control-center" (apt-file told me so), but I can't retrieve it even with reinstalling gnome-control-center, any ideas ?01:10
twrightAyla, you can get it back with sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop01:10
Aylatwright: I already tried that (with apt-get), the problem is still here01:11
twrightjust a sec then01:11
AylaIt's not my day xD01:11
twrightAyla, you could try reinstalling gnome-audio01:12
Aylatwright: reinstalling ? it was not installed01:13
twrightpulseaudio is now integrated into gnome so you can not just remove it01:13
twright"it was not installed", I think that this was the problem01:14
Aylatwright: no :( I installed it, and the program "gnome-sound-properties" is still missing01:14
twrightin that case you might be able to see if all of the recommends of the ubuntu-desktop package are installed via synaptic01:15
Aylatwright: it seems so01:17
twrightin that case are libcanberra-pulse and all of the recommend of gnome-media installed?01:18
Aylalibcanberra-pulse is not01:19
twrightthen in that case it and pulse  audio should be01:20
twrightyou could try sudo aptitude install libcanberra-pulse pulseaudio pulseaudio-esound-compat  pulseaudio-module-bluetooth pulseaudio-module-gconf pulseaudio-module-udev  pulseaudio-module-x11 ubuntu-desktop01:22
Aylatwright: same problem again and again :/01:25
twrightAyla, well it  should not be too difficult from here01:25
twrightdid the above command do any good?01:26
Aylaeverything was already installed, I tried reinstalling, but no chance01:26
sunshinepantsdoes anyone use quake 3 arena on ubuntu?01:28
twrightAyla, Is sound preferences missing from both the panel and menus then01:28
Aylayes01:28
twrightsunshinepants, I do (or at least mods)01:28
sunshinepantstwright: I use the point release and sound doesn't work.  Mouse is also not working01:29
twrightAyla, very weird - it many have broken some packages in removing pulseaudio so you could try fix broken packages in recovery mode01:30
Aylatwright: ok, I'll do that01:30
twrightsunshinepants, I don't think quake likes pulseaudio01:30
twrightAyla, good luck :-)01:31
Aylathanks01:31
Aylanow bed time @_@01:31
twrightsunshinepants, are other similar games (i.e. openarena) working well01:33
=== yoasif_ is now known as yoasif
sunshinepantstwright: I thought pulseaudio's whole thing was transparency for alsa / oss apps.  actually I have no other games, well doom3 and quake4, half life2.  none work on linux natively afaik01:33
twrightsunshinepants, doom3 and quake4 should01:34
twrightanyway the sound on older games sometimes does not work well01:34
sunshinepantstwright: really? that is good news.  so I guess you are straight alsa-only?01:45
twrighttwright, actually I am using pulseaudio as I don't really have that much of a gaming system01:46
twrightalthough you can suspend it when playing01:46
sunshinepantstwright: are you talking to yourself? j/k01:51
twrightoops, it appears so01:52
sunshinepantsit appears everything with q3a is good except for that, hopefully the mouse thing is also easy to fix.  It will be a while before I can test again01:53
twrightgood01:55
twrightare you also on quake live?01:55
twrightsunshinepants, are you also on quake live?01:57
sunshinepantstwright: no, I installed it but it was just not as nice as playing native quake/quake3.. I'm logging this so leave your handle and I'll add you.  I'm not even sure that I can add people I'm just assuming that exists01:58
Andre_Gondimdoes anyone know which GNOME Karmic will be release, 2.28 or 2.28.101:58
twrightadmiral_pain, see you sometime01:58
twrightAndre_Gondim, probably whatever fits the schedule01:59
Andre_GondimTwigathy, the gnome 2.28.1 will be release one week before the karmic release02:00
twrightAndre_Gondim, if you ask on the mailing list someone might be more likely to know02:00
odinsbanewow so the 2.6.31 kernel is released, and it appears to compile the latest fglrx drivers.02:00
Andre_Gondimok02:01
twrightI doubt they will go to 2.28.1 as it will be in rc then02:01
twrightthey might add it later02:01
twrightodinsbane, but not for any older cards :-(02:01
musikgoathi, whats the username and password that can be used when running the installer and jumping to a tty?02:09
musikgoati'd like to check for some files in a partition and don't want to go back through the installer again if i don't have to02:09
Nattgewif you run sudo it won't ask02:10
NattgewI think ubuntu is the username02:10
musikgoatNattgew: i'm at a login02:10
musikgoatctrl+alt+f202:10
musikgoatwondering if there is a default username password when running the installer02:11
NattgewI think ubuntu is the username, no password02:12
musikgoatNattgew: hah, i tried lots of generic words, but not leaving it blank02:13
musikgoatthanks!!02:13
odinsbaneWell it fglrx installs now, but I still don't get compiz.  Has anybody reported anyluck with ATI and karmic?02:13
NattgewI had an older card work with karmic... I think with the radeon driver02:18
kuaeraI just upgraded from kubuntu jaunty to karmic [in order to try amarok 2.2 - I figured it was safe] and am experiencing extreme graphical corruption on most plasma elements.02:33
Nattgewkuaera, what graphics card are you using?02:35
kuaeraNattgew: On that computer, ATI Mobility 7500, I believe02:36
kuaeraNattgew: ...admittedly, glxgears performance is up 350%.02:37
kuaeraNattgew: It's an M7 core; though the corruption is ONLY on plasma. I can view GTK/Qt applications just fine, and the wallpaper/cashew are okay.02:40
kuaeraWould this be some kind of Qt regression?02:48
musikgoatheh, not a good start so far, installed karmic alpha 5 nbr on an eee, and get fsck errors on the first boot02:49
kuaeramusikgoat: Och.02:49
musikgoatits saying last mount time is in the future, i fsck.ext4 /dev/sda1 and it fixes the problem, then reboot gives the same error02:50
musikgoathmm02:50
musikgoatmaybe the hwclock needs to be reset02:50
malnilionmusikgoat, did you try running just a simple fsck?02:53
malnilionRather than fsck.ext4?02:53
musikgoatmalnilion: the error was because i only fsck'ed the one partition, not the other02:54
musikgoati mis-read02:54
musikgoati'm at the desktop now02:55
musikgoatthanks though02:55
malnilionGlad you're up and running.02:55
musikgoatthnx02:55
kuaeramalnilion: Do you have any suggestions for me? :/02:56
malnilionThat is a very strange issue kuaera and I have no idea lol02:57
musikgoathmm, but the trackpad is not working :P02:57
kuaeramusikgoat: I got that sometimes with certain kernels.02:57
musikgoatok, apt-get upgrading packages to give that a shot first03:00

Nattgewwhen I right click on a folder, it says Open Folder and then Browse Folder... they do the same thing... is that a new Gnome thing?03:39
Nattgewevidently that's only on the desktop...03:40
crdlbNattgew: by default, nautilus uses spatial mode, which is why there are two choices03:40
crdlbubuntu changes the default03:40
crdlbI would expect that the browse option would go away if browse is the default, so that might be a bug03:41
crdlb"if browse is the current default mode", I mean03:42
Nattgewis there a way to change that mode?03:42
crdlbto spatial?03:42
Nattgeware the options browse and spatial?03:42

FlakeparadigmHello05:15
FlakeparadigmI have two questions.05:15
Flakeparadigmtwo issues, more or less05:15
Flakeparadigm1) Have the Nvidia drivers been fixed for the new kernel?05:16
dtchenwhich drivers?05:16
Flakeparadigmgraphics drivers, speciffically 137 I think it is05:16
billybigriggerwe're on 185.xx.xx now :P05:16
dtchen185.18.36 works fine with the current Karmic kernel05:17
dtchenit seems like 173.14.20 does, too05:17
Flakeparadigmoh, ok. Thanks!05:17
FlakeparadigmAlright #2 - When I try to download something from the internet, it takes a while to connect to the server05:18
Flakeparadigmand my internet speeds are rather slow05:18
FlakeparadigmBut in karmic only, though.05:19
dtchenunfortunately, that's much too vague to really diagnose05:20
FlakeparadigmWhat are some possible issues that I can explore?05:20
dtchenyou'd need to describe the nic(s), the medium(-ia), the applications, etc.05:20
FlakeparadigmWell I've noticed it in firefox, aurora, and konqueror. The wait is also seen in wget05:22
Flakeparadigmwhat exactly do you mean by nic and medium?05:23
test34I get more problems with my sound in karmic.. is this a known problem ?05:23
Flakeparadigmoh, Network Interface Card. ha. I have an Intel Wireless 3945ABG card alog with a Realtek RTL8101E/RTL8102E05:26
Flakeparadigmboth interfaces have the same issue.05:26
test34anywhere I can find the current version of a packages for current-stable and alpha ?05:26
test34nevermind05:27
test34http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=ubuntu05:27
idyllic<dtchen> 185.18.36 doesn't work well with new kernel yet. I still got error.05:39
idyllic<dtchen> kern.log -> NVRM: CPU does not support the PAT, falling back to MTRRs.05:40
DanaGdtchen: another handy thing, instead of alsamixer: gamix.05:46

Haeginbeans43: the greeter application is gdm, have you changed any login screen themes or anything recently? If not you can get into your system using a console login (Ctrl+Alt+F1-6) and then run startx to try and get into graphical login.11:34

beans43Haegin, my firefox and xhcat keep crashing too11:38
Haeginbeans43: yeah, kdm is the kde greeter, you probably don't want to mix kde in as you will end up with lots of stuff you don't want. If you want to try using a different greeter you could use xdm.11:38

beans43i have compiz running too11:42
beans43Haegin, problem is intermittent11:43
beans43i ll have to wait till october for a clean install11:43
Haeginbeans43: ok, it's almost certainly a karmic issue but for now you should make sure you are fully up to date, consider stopping compiz if that might be causing problems and run things from terminals if they start crashing to try and work out what the error message is11:43
HaeginDr_Willis: if you are interested in lightweight login managers I quite like slim11:44
beans43Haegin, ok thx11:45
SwedeMikeI just installed karmic and upon first boot I was dropped to shell because the superblock of the ext4 / partition had a timestamp in the future.11:45
Haeginbeans43: good luck working it out.11:45
SwedeMikeeasily enough fixed, but not easily handled by a novice user.11:45
HaeginSwedeMike: did you happen to notice how fan in the future it was?11:46
SwedeMikeHaegin: two hours.11:46
SwedeMikeapproximately... so my theory is that the installer was running in another TZ setting11:46
Haeginyeah, I had a similar problem where mine was always exactly an hour ahead of my system. I'm guessing you are 2 hours ahead of GMT?11:46
HaeginSwedeMike: I was experiencing the problem on a system that had been running for a while. I think it was a kernel problem as updating got rid of it.11:47
SwedeMikehm, I'm in CET.11:47
SwedeMikeso right now 12:47, the timestamp of the superblock was 14:2011:48
SwedeMikewhich matches approximately the time I started the installer (installed usb stick->ssd)... which by the way installed very quickly indeed, solid state media is the bomb.11:48
HaeginSwedeMike: yeah, with DST that's two hours ahead of GMT which is the only pattern I could pick up11:48
Haeginif the installer was running the same kernel that gave me problems that might explain it11:49
SwedeMikeI think it's kind of weird that ext4 fsck would give such an error just because the timestamp is in the future11:49
HaeginSwedeMike: in some ways yes but I imagine there could be potential for bad filesystem corruption if the system clock is faliing causing access and modified times to be all over the place. Especially with journaling.11:55

eagles0513875this isnt looking ver promising for me and duel booting with karmic on my mac with boot camp on 2 fronts :(13:47
arvind_khadrieagles0513875, ok , whats the problem?13:48
eagles0513875one grub 2 isnt allowing boot camp to see my linux partition where as grub 1 it does13:48
eagles0513875and 2 on karmic i have no desktop13:48
beans43need help with sound card http://pastebin.com/m18308cda13:48
eagles0513875it drops me right into a tty console13:48
arvind_khadrieagles0513875, use grub 1 then, and did you install server version...13:50
eagles0513875no used the regular jaunty cd and then upgraded13:50
eagles0513875jaunty works just fine but these iissues need to be rectified before release though13:51
eagles0513875it seems like x after upgrading doesnt like my video card or something13:53
eagles0513875wha tdoesnt makes sense is what changed from jaunty to karmic xserver wise13:53
penguin42eagles0513875: You're Nvidia aren't you?  If so then you'll need newer Nvidia binary drivers won't you?13:58
eagles0513875im using whats in karmic repos13:59
eagles0513875and even wiht the 185 driver installed it still wouldnt work13:59

penguin42Hi BK14:45
BluesKajhey penguin42 ...do you run 64bit ?14:45
penguin42yep14:45
penguin42why do you ask?14:46
BluesKajok I'm using a nvidia graphics card geforce 7600gt , but the previous driver from the 32 bit version isn't installed..and my glxgears are 1/5 the frame rate14:47
raymondjtothhow i reinstall my sound some how it got uninstalled in ubuntu 9.1014:48
raymondjtoth<raymondjtoth> ? going to try reinstalling14:48
BluesKajgoogle earth is running in emulation mode aka very slow14:48
penguin42BluesKaj: GE seems to be running OK for me; I'm running Intel graphics though - I'm not sure how 32bit GL apps work on 64bit14:49
penguin42I'm also not sure if Nvidia is the same or not - they didn't used to use DRI14:50
BluesKajpenguin42, glxinfo gives DRI as yes14:52
BluesKajanyway , guess I have some research to do :)14:52
penguin42BluesKaj: if you look at /proc/pid/maps for the google-earth where is it getting it's libGL.so from?14:53
penguin42and does Nvidia install it's own libGL?14:54

pvandewyngaerde_also keyboard shortcuts dont work yet15:12
eagles0513875ahhh penguin42 :(15:12
eagles0513875turns out the issue im having is xserver related15:12
eagles0513875as looking in the log there is no mention as to my gpu15:12
eagles0513875but what makes no sense is what changed from the version in jaunty to karmic15:13
robin0800penguin42: you can click on a message from irc and as long as the clent is in the notification area it can pop it up15:13
pvandewyngaerde_i get a segmentation fault for krunner15:13

eagles0513875quote BluesKaj on this: xorg is gone , dunno what they call the graphics/video system now15:31
BluesKajsque, 64 bit here , chromium does the job if you enable plugins15:31
squeBluesKaj: I have enabled plugins, it is not chromium error it is flash15:31
penguin42eagles0513875: No, it's still using xorg15:32
BluesKajflash works in chromium , but if you won't describe what's happening15:32
squeBluesKaj: the same behaviour exists on firefox and chromium, which is: It does not load always it has a 50% to not load, a page refresh may workaround it. and if it loads it does not always responds to mouse events15:32
eagles0513875then i need a newer version penguin42 :(15:33
eagles0513875do you know if the newer version will support a 9400M video card15:33
penguin42eagles0513875: Your problem is Nvidia drivers15:33
BluesKajpenguin42, where is xorg.conf ...doesn't exist on my setup15:33
eagles0513875neither on my vm15:33
penguin42BluesKaj: It's not needed - it's automatically detected - you can add an xorg.conf if you want15:33
eagles0513875whats wrong with the nvidia drivers15:33
penguin42BluesKaj: I use one for a bit of a weird dual head setup15:33
eagles0513875for me looking at xorg log it seems like my video card is not supported in the version of xorg in karmic yet it is in jaunty15:34
BluesKajpenguin42, so it's using kernel modules , which then uses a crappy driver automatically15:34
penguin42eagles0513875: Because it's nvidia it's probably dependent on the closed source drivers15:34
eagles0513875i had them installed and still nothing penguin4215:34
penguin42BluesKaj: Not quite; the kernel modules are used for mode switching only most of the time and some of the render acceleration I think15:35
penguin42BluesKaj: The only thing that's changed recently is the use of kernel mode switching15:35
penguin42(oh and use of is it UXA rather than EXA on Intel - or is that the other way...)15:35
BluesKajwell, it's another mistake cuz my graphics aren't what they should be15:36
LLStarkspenguin42. once again, i disagree. flash shouldn't stop working for multiple people.15:36
LLStarks*suddenly stop.15:36
penguin42BluesKaj: That's not because Xorg has gone - Xorg is still there15:36
penguin42LLStarks: I don't disagree - flash should work; I'm just saying it seems to work for me15:36
LLStarksit stopped working yesterday for multiple people with different setups15:37
LLStarksand flash player environments15:37
LLStarksare you fully upgraded?15:37
BluesKajpenguin42, I tried installing the previous driver that karmuc 32 bit used and i couldn't login cuz the the kernel source driver was installed with glx-185 ...incompatability i guess.15:38
penguin42BluesKaj: This nvidia?15:41
pvandewyngaerde_really beta,  nvidia giving me lots of problems15:41
eagles0513875this is one nasty bug i have15:41
penguin42it's normal for the alphas; they use a newer kernel and then the binary closed source drivers have to play catch up15:42
eagles0513875penguin42: then that brings me to my other question why in the xorg log i dont see my video card listed there as supported15:42
penguin42eagles0513875: Probably because the closed-source drivers broken in some horrid way - I don't use Nvidias, I've not had to debug them15:43
eagles0513875penguin42: and upgrading x wouldnt help at all15:44
penguin42eagles0513875: I doubt it15:44

BluesKajpenguin42, you're too kind to the devs , xorg.conf may still exist but editing it is quite a useless method to fix a graphics problem15:48
BluesKajit was very useful in the past15:48
penguin42BluesKaj: Oh I agree you shouldn't have to fight an xorg.conf15:48
penguin42BluesKaj: But this isn't anything new - certainly it's not anything new since Intrepid at least15:49
eagles0513875hehe funny you mention it BluesKaj haha im reading about the parts of it atm for part 2 of my linux exam15:49
penguin42BluesKaj: I mean I seem to need it because my monitor won't autorecognise and the Gnome GUI is too dumb to allow you to specify a monitor it can't autodetect15:50
penguin42BluesKaj: In my case I don't think it's X's problem - and actually the one bit which is X's problem the new kernel mode switching is supposed to be able to help15:52
robin0800penguin42: Have you tried Xorg -configure15:53
penguin42robin0800: Yep15:53
penguin42robin0800: In this case the monitor res isn't correctly being detected by EDID, and I don't know if the problem is the machine or the monitor, but I don't think it's X15:53
robin0800penguin42: You can disable EDID in the driver? and add correct settings in xorg.conf15:55
penguin42robin0800: Yeh as I said, I've got the res set in the xorg.conf; the annoying thing is that you have to do it with the xorg.conf - the GUI has no way to specify an arbitrary resolution even though xrandr can do it15:56
robin0800penguin42: This is still alpha not even beta yet15:57
penguin42robin0800: Oh yeh - this isn't a Karmic issue - this is longer term and there is nothing looking like anything being done about it15:58

deanthe font is set to regular for "applcation" font btw.18:01
Tallkenyuriy: concerning apport-kde: your patch works here; unless your patch is just a workaround and you're tweaking the code somewhere...18:03
Turmsi've just upgraded to karmic, the problem is that gdm starts i identify and afterwards i'm left with a black screen and just an xterm18:05
darkhamplese add a document of changes between daily discs18:05
TallkenTurms: stupid idea: have you selected Gnome on GDM's session list?18:06
Matirdarkham, the dailies are built by an automated build system with whatever packages happen to be ready at that time18:06
TurmsTallken: good question! the problem is that gdm starts and presents to me the windows for identifying but i've just the choise for language and keyboard18:09
* penguin42 wonders if there is any automatic test ing of packages or dailies?18:09
Matirpenguin42, my understanding is the daily iso is only tested to see if it built properly and is <700MB18:10
penguin42Matir: Pity, auto booting in a VM shouldn't be that hard18:10
Ian_Cornepenguin42: No but if it doesn't work, fixing it might not make it daily anymore ;-)18:12
darkhamMatir, developers can't build a document by automated?18:13
Turmsanother problem: i cannot see the login prompt in the vc's18:13
yuriyTallken: the patch basically works, but it doesn't actually fix the hanging, just avoids it18:13
Matirdarkham, are you looking for a list of packages who have changed since yesterday's build?18:13
TallkenTurms: probably sth is very wrong and he doesn't know which type of sessions is available. I can't help you. ask again here, the issue is GDM not presenting the menu to select Gnome or KDE. If noone replies, go to the forums; if noone replies, bug report.18:13
darkhamyes Matir18:14
darkhami know the list of all packages18:14
yuriyTallken: thanks for testing18:14
Tallkenyuriy: ah ok. thx for the explanation :)18:14
darkhamal list with only changes would be helpful18:14
Tallkenu welcome :)18:14
TurmsTallken: i'm fed up with presenting bug reports! i will uninstall the whole X and reinstall it .... if i can have access to the vc's18:14
TallkenTurms: clean install would be better.18:15
TallkenTurms: and if you don't report, noone will fix it, speacially if it's a tiny itsy bitsy issue noone else has found18:15
TallkenTurms: and the absense of access to VTs suggests something else is wrong. Clean install is better.18:16
TallkenTurms: Karmic tries to set the max resolution on the VTs, maybe it's that.18:17
astromme_Uh oh, same issue18:17
TallkenTurms: (in case you don't want to clean install)18:17
astromme_It gets to linux-headers and fails again....18:17
astromme_It installed every other package alright. Weird18:17
TurmsTallken: well, i do not like it! i'have been using debian for the last 11 yrs and i cannot accept that i've to reinstall ubuntu which is debian based18:18
TallkenTurms: you kinda updated to a alpha version :p18:19
TurmsTallken: and ok, i'll try with a xorg.conf with max res 800x60018:19
TallkenTurms: hum? if you can't access VT it isn't in the Xorg18:19
TallkenTurms: you'll likely have to force something on the grub.cfg like vga=0x343  [random hex here, search for docs]18:19
TurmsTallken: well, that is another problem which occurred to me in hoary or breeze, i cannot remember18:19
TallkenTurms: which graphics card do you have ?18:19
TurmsTallken: nvidia, quite old 400 mx if i'm not mistaken18:20
TurmsTallken: but in another partition i have squeeze and it works 1280+102418:20
TurmsTallken: actually i've just tried using the xorg.conf of squeeze (debian doesn't yet have the xorg.conf empty)18:21
TurmsTallken: and i tried lowering resolution to 1152x96818:22
TallkenTurms: ok, maybe I'm confused here, what do you mean by VC ?18:23
TurmsTallken: virtual consoles18:25
TallkenTurms: so, you have two different issues18:25
TallkenTurms: one is GDM not knowing which sessions it has18:25
TurmsTallken: yes, vc's is the worst18:26
TallkenTurms: the other is proabably the resolution which is set for the the framebuffer which is used by the VT is too high/incompatible with the graphics card18:26
TallkenTurms: the VT issue has nothing to do with Xorg nor xorg.conf18:26
TurmsTallken: yes i know18:26
TallkenTurms: you'll have to modify the framebuffer resolution18:26
TurmsTallken: maybe you are right18:27
Tallkenthen why the heck were you speaking to me about xorg.conf ?18:27
TallkenTurms: do note18:27
TallkenTurms: Karmic uses GRUB 1.96, aka GRUB2. The grub.cfg may not be in the format you're used to: http://www.mepis.org/node/299218:28
TallkenTurms: force some lower vga18:28
Tallkenparameter18:28
Tallkeni still recommend at least booting a live CD18:28
Tallkenat least to check the consoles18:28
Tallken*the VT18:28
TurmsTallken: well, maybe i misunderstood something you wrote, you  said that resolution could be too high because X tries to use the highest, so i i thought you were speaking about xorg.conf18:28
TallkenTurms: ah no, I should've been more explicit: the Karmic's kernel tries to use the "native" resolution for the framebuffer and hence the VTs/VCs18:29
TurmsTallken: well i tried last year grub2 and i found it to be e mess to set up, anyway the grub which is used at starttime is the squeeze one18:30
Tallkenfor example my VT is I believe at 1280x800. Can't be sure though since I don't know how to check the resolution18:30
Tallkenbut it has a better resolution than ever before18:30
Tallken[    0.001388] Console: colour VGA+ 80x2518:31
Tallken[    0.001393] console [tty0] enabled18:31
Tallkenhum18:31
Tallkendon't know18:31
Tallkenit's better than before18:31
Tallkenthat, I can say for sure :p18:31
TurmsTallken: ok, then i'll switch to debian and try to lower the resolution in the grub karmic stanza, thanks18:32
Tallkenyou welcome18:32
Tallkencan't be sure that's the issue18:32
Tallkenbut probably is18:32
TurmsTallken: well if i can have the vc's i'm out of the problem18:33
Tallkengood luck18:33
Tallkenwill go away now18:33
Turmsi'll unistall x and reinstall it :-D18:33
Tallkenuse --purge when uninstalling18:33
Turms:-D18:33
Tallkenunless you want to keep some setting18:33
Tallkenbut it's better to purge old settings18:33

webbb82im downloading the karmic daily  but i judst looked at the file name and the name is karmic-alernate-i386.iso19:42
NattgewI've noticed that the karmic images are all named like that... very helpful when you're downloading different kinds of karmic...19:44
webbb82ok i just wanted to make sure i downloaded the rite file19:45
plagerismwebb alternative is the none livecd version of the install19:45
plagerismor at least it used to be19:45
Spike1506anyone knows if the latest avaible ati drivers work with the latest alpha? i wanna test it but since i have a ati card i would like to know before i gonna test :p19:45
BluesKajwell, for what it's worth , I managed to find a driver that gives me my old frame rates and DRI+3D acceleration on 64 bit with nvidia geforce 7600 GT , the driver is available at nvidia.com , but one has to stop X  with "sudo /etc/init.d/kdm stop" , command then sudo ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-185.18.36-pkg2.run , all at the tty prompt19:58
BluesKajanyway i copied all this into my CLI cmnds file , for future reference20:09
mac_vSpike1506: ati here ;) , works better than jaunty \o/20:11
Spike1506mac_v, with the closed source drivers?20:11
mac_vjust the drivers which come with the system , nothing fancy20:12
mac_vSpike1506: oh , i use xorg edgers ppa too :p20:12
* Spike1506 needs to closed source ones for 3D.20:12
mac_vthe radeon stuff is still not proper20:13
BluesKajwell, my graphics went into the toilet after installing 64 bit , some research helped me find the solution20:13
Spike1506wanna share it BluesKaj?20:13
BluesKajSpike1506, read above20:14
Spike1506ty20:15
Spike1506bbl now20:15
BluesKajSpike1506, if you have a 7 series nvidia card, this driver is the one , NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-185.18.36-pkg2.ru20:16
* Spike1506 has ati20:16
BluesKajru=run20:16
Spike1506ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3400 Series20:16
Spike1506OpenGL version string: 2.1.891820:16
Spike1506anyways, gota go now, sorry and thanks for the ifno20:16

Nattgewwebbb82 it makes it more secure but it may slow it down a little bit20:27
mac_vMike1: its to refresh the files that need to be called during boot20:28
webbb82Nattgew: im on a aspire one netbook  i need all the power i can get20:28
NattgewI haven't encrypted mine, I just have one folder encrypted20:29

Aylaheh21:36
Aylait's to be released in one month, I through it'd be already quite stable21:37
guntbertAyla: make that 7 weeks - and look at the designation ALPHA21:39
laz0rnobody is answering in #ubuntu-bugs, should i leave a note on the bug that i changed it by accident?21:39
Aylaguntbert: I know what ALPHA means21:42
Nattgewlaz0r I would wait a bit, if no one answers then yes leave a comment21:42
guntbertAyla: :-)  but why were you surprised to find bugs? what else could be the reason to start that version now? (besides curiosity of course :-)21:43
Aylaguntbert: well, the hour & date panel has been here for years, it's strange it's broken now21:46
