MarcoPauhello, I can't activate composite in my kubuntu since last upgrade. getting (EE) AIGLX error: Calling driver entry point failed(EE) AIGLX: reverting to software rendering in Xorg.0.log... any hint?09:28
dwidmann_MarcoPau: video card/driver?09:29
MarcoPauRadeon HD 345009:29
MarcoPauwith radeon modules09:29
MarcoPaumodule*09:29
dwidmann_MarcoPau: can you pastebin the portion of your /var/log/dpkg.log that pertains to your last upgrade?09:30
dwidmann_*pertains09:30
dwidmann_wait, I misread myself when proofreading afterwards, then corrected myself when I was right to begin with ...09:31
* dwidmann_ drinks more coffee09:31
MarcoPaudwidmann_: can't really say which part is the one of the upgrade09:31
dwidmann_MarcoPau: then pastebin it all, I'll try to figure it out09:32
MarcoPauanyway I have to say that I'm using KDE 4.3 and kernel 2.6.31. actually when I upgraded the kernel I started having a few problems with the video card09:32
dwidmann_Normally this is the point where somebody would send you to #ubuntu+1, but I don't feel like being a prat this morning, so we'll continue here :)09:34
dwidmann_MarcoPau: the problem could be related to the X stack, the kernel, or the video drivers. We'll have to figure out which by switching each out, one at a time, starting with probably the video driver, then the kernel ... and just hope it's not X09:35
MarcoPaudwidmann_: as far as I googled it seems to be more likely kernel related, anyway just selected the interesting part of dpkg.log09:37
MarcoPauhttp://pastebin.com/d5bab403c there it is09:37
dwidmann_MarcoPau: I presume the interesting part means the part that starts with 2009-09-20, right?09:38
MarcoPaubut let me tell you I first had this error RADEONDRIGetVersion failed to open the DRM which seems to go away writing options radeon modeset=0 in /etc/modprobe.d/radeon.conf09:39
dwidmann_MarcoPau: do you by chance have an older backup kernel still installed (anything before the current should do, even if it's only one minor packaging revision ago)09:40
MarcoPaudwidmann_: well yes, I started with the kernel, then the whole upgrade and at the end you can see a few shots regarding radeon09:41
MarcoPauI got a 2.6.2809:41
dwidmann_You can give the 2.6.28 a try, sounds like a good plan actually, and see if that alleviates the problem09:41
MarcoPauiirc 2.6.28 had its problems as well. plus I think I needed the newer version for CMake or stuff like that09:42
MarcoPauanyway, should I try rebooting with 2.6.28?09:43
dwidmann_MarcoPau: Yes, trying the easy things first is always a good plan09:43
MarcoPauBRB then09:43
MarcoPaure09:47
tasslehoffhow can I check my computers hostname?09:47
MarcoPaudwidmann_: still can't activate composite, but let's see errors in Xorg log and syslog09:47
MarcoPau(EE) RADEON(0): [dri] RADEONDRIGetVersion failed to open the DRM09:48
MarcoPau(EE) RADEON(0): Acceleration initialization failed09:48
irccuquit09:48
dwidmann_MarcoPau: different errors don't help much do they?09:48
MarcoPausame as before setting that radeon.conf... after that, on 2.6.31, it came up with AIGLX09:49
MarcoPaudwidmann_: actually it's the same thing09:49
MarcoPaubut I guess options radeon modeset=0 doesn't make any difference on 2.6.2809:50
MarcoPaudwidmann_: should I go back to 2.6.31 or stay here?09:52
dwidmann_MarcoPau: Hmm, another thought, would it work if you tried to use the fglrx driver instead?09:52
MarcoPaugimme a sec I'll try setting it in xorg.conf09:52
MarcoPaudwidmann_: I get an apparmor fail at boot. might it be related as well or not?09:58
dwidmann_MarcoPau: no, shouldn't be09:58
MarcoPauok installed fglrx, restarting X09:58
MarcoPaudwidmann_: no changes apparently. should I go back to 2.6.31 and try from there?10:02
MarcoPauwith fglrx I mean10:02
dwidmann_MarcoPau: sure, you can try that10:02
MarcoPauBRB10:02
bigbrovar.10:05
MarcoPaudwidmann_: under 2.6.31 I get fail at loading fglrx at boot, and no display in Xorg10:09
dwidmann_Right ... guess that didn't fix that then10:09
dwidmann_(I'm glad I'm not the one running Karmic with an ATI card right now, for sure)10:11
MarcoPaudwidmann_: I got jaunty actually... plus, I remember that older kernels both in jaunty and intrepid had bigger problems with fglrx10:14
MarcoPauand I was never able to activate compiz. everybody was saying to wait for upgrades for radeon support or stuff like that10:15
MarcoPauthat's why I was trying it back10:15

Newbeehello everybody13:32
NewbeeI tried to use nepomuk/strigi for indexing. But when I enable it in the KDE system settings it says: "Strigi service faild to initialize. Most likely due to an installation problem" But I didn't know that I would even have to install things. I thought that strigi is installed by default.13:35
NewbeeI use Kubuntu Jaunty.13:35
iapyx20someone here who can give me a tip on something13:36
Newbeeiapyx20: If I can help, of course. But what's the issue?13:38
iapyx20most of my music collection is on a drive that requests a password to access. if that is the problem (I'm assuming it is), amarok doesn't reload my files in the collection when I open it.13:39
iapyx20I created a symlink from /home/user/music to this directory, but it doesn't appear to make a difference in this case13:39
=== crissi_ is now known as CrissiD
iapyx20I guess my objective is to make it so that directories on this partition aren't password protected13:41
Newbeeiapyx20: so to make sure I got it. You use Amarok. Than you open/unlock your drive and amarok does not update your collection. And you want that amarok updates after you unlocked. Is this the point?13:42
iapyx20i'd prefer to not need to unlock anything, but yes.13:42
iapyx20is this just a case of setting permissions on that drive?13:43
James147iapyx20: Dosent Tools -> Update Collections do anything?13:44
iapyx20well, I just accessed the drive in dolphin and it asked for a password. it usually only does that once per session, to my knowledge, so i'll try updating again and see what it does this time.13:44
NewbeeI haven't ever had such a scenario. But you could mount the drive with full rights for you an see what happens.13:45
NewbeeI think if you are working with dolphin you will use some of the KDE kio things to access your drive. And I don't know how you wanted to make sure amarok makes use of this thing an takes the needed password. I am not a KDE expert so I just don't konw. But maybe you could mount your drive using the mount command. (I usually use the standart mount for example for samba shares)13:48
fyl0nIs it possible to damage a videocard when running ETQW under 9.04? because my system is dead now and I have no kernels to start.13:52

Newbeeoh, sorry. I cannot imagine how this could happen. I use linux for some years now as my main system but I am not an expert. But how on earth should a game kill your filesystem? have you tried a live-CD?14:03
fyl0nI did.. no result14:03

azhoralI wanna use this resolution: 1680x1050 (in Kde) but kdm and kde see 1920*1080 the preferred resolution.14:08
BluesKajfyl0n, what is ETQW , a game ?14:09
fyl0nyes it a game of id Software Enemy Territory Quake Wars14:10
BluesKajfyl0n, do you have any other graphics issues?14:11
azhoralthis is my Xorg.conf file.  http://pastebin.ubuntu.com:80/275244/14:12
fyl0nnone what so ever.. I play lot of games under tux.. I use native tux clients.. no wine or what so ever14:13
fyl0nI've had the probs with sound and skype together14:13
fyl0nthen I got a crash14:13
fyl0nI think the crash occurred when the sound system didn't work properly with ETQW and skype.14:15
BluesKajfyl0n, then I can only tell you that skype has issues with pulseaudio and they are being worked on14:16
fyl0nbecause I didn't have a reasonable fps when started.. and got no sound.14:16
fyl0nbut issues are common right.. this is a serious system crash.. :(14:17
BluesKajfyl0n, make sure you have alsa-base and alsa-utils installed14:17
fyl0nboth of them are the newest versions14:17
fyl0nI think the crash is related to the soundsystem in combination with skype wich I used at that moment.14:19
fyl0nbut the videocard is so much damaged.. that it won't run anymore under any circumstances14:19
BluesKajI think there's a problem with X and whatever video driver you're using14:20
BluesKajfyl0n, which graphics card ?14:21
fyl0nI used the nvidia driver witch comes with the Kjockey.. it's a Nvidia EVGA 8800GT SC 51214:22
azhoralnobody have solution?14:23
BluesKajfyl0n, make sure you have the nvidia-glx-185 driver installed14:24
BluesKajfyl0n, check in your package manager14:24
fyl0nwhen the crash happened.. the latest driver was 180 series..14:27
BluesKajas I said , make sure..it's important14:28
fyl0nthanx :) but crash did happen and damage has been done..14:29
BluesKajwhat damage ?14:29
fyl0ntotal system crash14:30
gnomefreaksystem or X?14:31
fyl0n1TB hdd totally EMPTY and videocard is DEAD14:31
gnomefreakkernel is unlikely to crash14:31
BluesKajinfo is the key14:31
fyl0nyeah but what info if HDD is TOTALLY empty14:31
BluesKajbut , it's not forthcoming it seems14:31
gnomefreaks/unlikely/very unlikely14:31
fyl0nlive boot won't help cause videocard is dead.14:32
fyl0nput in another videocard.. live boot will boot.. and try to mount my 1TB hdd witout luck14:32
fyl0ndrive is totally empty14:32
fyl0nGRUB says no kernel to boot14:33

James147TutorialsPlsums: Just ask what you want to know and if someone can they will help you16:57
TutorialsPlsumsThanks.16:57
TutorialsPlsumsDo i need any drivers for my hardware if i install ubuntu16:57
TutorialsPlsums?16:57
James147TutorialsPlsums: Mostly no... but it highly depends on what hardware, most common hardware will work outof the box16:58
TutorialsPlsumsAh good.16:58
TutorialsPlsumsI have a fairly old vaio laptop with realtek alc262 sound16:58
James147TutorialsPlsums: You can always use a livecd to see if the hardware works16:58
TutorialsPlsumslivecd?16:58
TutorialsPlsumsSorry im a bit dumb16:59
James147TutorialsPlsums: A livecd is a bootable CD that contains a usable operating system16:59
James147TutorialsPlsums: So you can boot stright from the CD without installing anything16:59
TutorialsPlsumsThanks, im thinking of installing a distro of linux into a virtual machine to see if it will work.17:00
shipvirtual machine17:00
James147TutorialsPlsums: keep in mind that you cant test most of your ahrdware with a virtual mechine17:00
shipis not like installing a linux distro17:00
TutorialsPlsumsI know.17:00
TutorialsPlsumsI might just format and then re-install linux on here.17:01
TutorialsPlsumsIf it doesnt work, then ill put windows back on, it needs a format anyway.17:01
shipvirtual machine (virtual box ) has his own device17:01
James147TutorialsPlsums: You can also dual boot linux with other OS's17:01
TutorialsPlsumsI know.17:01
TutorialsPlsumsI was going to dual boot with windows.17:01
shipintel alc should work17:01
TutorialsPlsumsShip, would an intel gma 950 work?17:01
James147TutorialsPlsums: I suggest a liveCD as you can test the OS without touching your HD and then install it if you like it (most livecds have an option to install to HD)17:02
shipTutorialsPlsums: i have 945gm17:02
TutorialsPlsumsDoes it work?17:02
shipsure like you can seee here17:02
TutorialsPlsumsJames147, do i get a livecd from ubuntu?17:02
TutorialsPlsumsOh, your on ubuntu then =D17:02
shipTutorialsPlsums: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eLVSaqvshRc&feature=channel_page17:02
James147TutorialsPlsums: Ubuntu's (and Kubuntu's) default installation disk (ie not the alterive installer) is a livecd17:03
TutorialsPlsumsIm confused, so if i downloaded the iso, and burnt to a cd, it would be a live17:03
TutorialsPlsumscd?17:03
shipyes17:03
James147TutorialsPlsums: If you downloaded the desktop iso tehn yes17:04
shipthere are:17:04
shiplivecd for nice pc17:04
shipalternate cd for old pc17:04
robin0800TutorialsPlsums  its called a desktop cd17:04
shipdesktop cd ---> nice pc ; alternate cd --->old pc17:04
TutorialsPlsumsIm downloading the desktop iso at the minute, so if i burnt it to a DVD, it would give methe option of a livecd?17:04
James147alternate is not just for old pcs, but has more options on it as well... like settings up encryped drives during the install17:04
James147TutorialsPlsums: When you boot from kubuntu livecd it will give you a few options to choses from, the first one (and the default one) is to boot the live os17:06
PHP_Alexagreed17:06
PHP_Alexthis one is for thoose, who want to take care of any aspect of installation17:06
TutorialsPlsumsSorry for being a noob, but if i boot from the disc, would it give me the option to format too?17:06
PHP_Alexalso, it works faster a bit17:06
PHP_Aleximho17:06
PHP_Alexyes17:06
TutorialsPlsumsOk, im actually download the ubuntu iso, woops.17:07
James147TutorialsPlsums: Not directly, but once in teh liveCD you can format if you want to, the installer will guide you through formating and such things17:07
James147TutorialsPlsums: ubuntu is the same as kubuntu, they use the same reposities and everything... the only real difference is the packages they install by default. ubuntu uses the GNOME desktop enviroment and kubuntu uses the K desktop enviroment (kde)17:08

seestgenii, thank you, i'll try that out18:35

bentob0xyea, I saw that recently in some 4.X changelog18:46
