ubot4Launchpad bug 418617 in pulseaudio "Sound Prefrences applet does not offer a way for laptop users to use mic jack attached mic" [Undecided,New]00:02
jerone-mobiledtchen, think meant "partially" for the bug at least00:03
jerone-mobiledtchen, but the big issue is resolved00:04
dtchenjerone-mobile: ok00:04
jerone-mobiledtchen, the other is minor really00:04
dtchenjerone-mobile: i agree there's a UI nit-pick00:04
jerone-mobiledtchen, focus for next release00:04
dtchenright00:04
dtcheni'm not going to be focusing on it for Karmic at least00:04
dtchenthanks again for testing00:04
dtchenxteejx: have you mentioned it in #kubuntu-devel?00:06
dtchen(it doesn't appear so, but my irc client's activity indicator sometimes lies)00:06

xteejxbug 160071, its a developer type report, very confusing i haven't a clue what it means, can someone with more of a brain than me take a look please? :) lol00:51
ubot4Launchpad bug 160071 in libdebian-installer "Logger Framework Conducive to Creating Zombie Processes When Syslog is Restarted" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/16007100:51
xteejxif theres anyone here of course ;)00:52
xteejxWhat is the commit interval for ext3 with laptops on battery is it still 5 seconds?01:04
mzzxteejx: last time I checked: yes01:05
mzzxteejx: zombie processes are usually pretty ignorable01:06
mzzxteejx: (if you're a developer: you should clean them up if your code is causing them. If you're a user: you can usually ignore them, since they don't take up a significant amount of resources unless there's tons of them)01:07
xteejxmzz, I'm only asking because of a bug report, more of a wishlist really: bug 15044801:08

bcurtiswxBug #408530 and Bug #443340  i believe they are the same, and the first has the better report.. but both have a large amount of duplicates, does launchpad still complain about that?03:19

bcurtiswxfor those who can read private reports ;-)03:19
bcurtiswxim gonna go check it and publicize it if i can03:21
micahgbcurtiswx: yeah, you still have to manually move the dupes AFAIK03:32
bcurtiswx<facepalm> that sucks03:32
bcurtiswxmicahg: you agree that 408530 is the better bug tho?03:34

shawn_Hello is this where I report bugs?04:09
mzzshawn_: no, that'd be launchpad or using ubuntu-bug on a ubuntu system. This is where you get help using those though.04:11
bcurtiswxshawn_, which package are you reporting against?04:11
shawn_Well I want to report a bug with the Remote Desktop Viewer04:12
shawn_In Jaunty04:12
bcurtiswxyeah use ubuntu-bug04:17
shawn_Whats that04:17
benediktshawn_: open a terminal an write "ubuntu-bug" :-)04:17
mzzshawn_: if you go to http://bugs.ubuntu.com/ and click the "report a bug" link (on the right) you're taken to a wiki page telling you (among other things) how to invoke ubuntu-bug04:18
benediktreading the man page also works.04:18
shawn_Gah this seems way too annoying xD04:19
sbeattieshawn_: actually, it's even easier than what the others suggested; open the Remote Desktop Viewer, click on the help menu and then select "Report a Problem"04:27
shawn_Ohhh04:27

iamfossyError mounting: mount exited with exit code 1: helper failed with:10:22
iamfossymount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdd1,10:22

iamfossy       dmesg | tail  or s10:22
iamfossythats the error10:22
iamfossywhen i plug in a USB10:22
mzzif you try to mount directly does it fail the same way?10:23
iamfossyi've checked it with multiple USB's10:23
mzzalso, what does "file -s /dev/sdd1" say?10:23
mzzalso, what it said about dmesg10:23
iamfossythe file command with sudo reports as follows : /dev/sdd1: x86 boot sector, code offset 0x58, OEM-ID "MSWIN4.1", sectors/cluster 8, reserved sectors 2176, Media descriptor 0xf8, heads 255, hidden sectors 63, sectors 15695808 (volumes > 32 MB) , FAT (32 bit), sectors/FAT 15296, reserved3 0x800000, serial number 0xa84562fb, unlabeled10:24

iamfossyOops sorry10:25
iamfossybtw i've the latest updates to karmic10:26
iamfossyany idea or a fix ?10:26
iamfossyi googled aroung , and saw everywhere in ubuntu forums10:27
iamfossywas not able to see such error10:27
iamfossy@mzz any ideas / fixes / solutions ?10:28
mzzsee earlier comment about manual mounting10:29
iamfossythats the way i do it now , i manually mount the flash drives , then gksu nautilus to read/write to it10:30
iamfossyis this the problem with everyone or only me ?10:30
mzzI can't say I've noticed it10:32
mzzhow are you mounting? Specifically: are you passing "-t vfat" or the like?10:32
mzzI'd attempt to find out how "mount" ends up getting called, although I'm not sure what a convenient way to do that would be10:33
iamfossyit never mounts automaticallt , i use this : sudo mount /dev/sdd1 /mnt10:33

indusxteejx: hello11:32
xteejxindus, hi11:33
indusxteejx: you know, i downgraded bios and it seems the soft reset messages went away, but cd/dvd didnt work anyway11:33
xteejxindus, so the drive is physically "broken", its not software?11:33
indusxteejx: actually i have a bandwidth cap per month, and so cant download kernel yet11:33
indusxteejx: works beautifully in windows11:34
indusxteejx: actually i dont remember whether messages disappeared , i upgraded to latest bios anyway11:34
xteejxxteejyx, still a problem then, thats a shame...glad to see the soft ata messages went though, its one step closer to fixing it, in fact you may not have to test a mainline kernel now, i'll have a look11:34
indusxteejx: no no wait, iam not sure it disappeared i am saying11:35
indusxteejx: but the drive wasnt detected still , so i went back to new bios11:35
xteejxindus, ohhh ok, well no worries i'm in the middle of doing other stuff, but will check back on my gmail account if there's any updates :)11:36
indusxteejx: believe me, this is  a  amd 690 g chipset issue11:36
indusxteejx: i will test mainline in a day or so11:36
xteejxok11:36
indusxteejx: just double click on deb and install?11:36

dtchenbcurtiswx: I'm not sure what you mean?23:19
dtchenparan: it's no longer compat-wireless bleeding but whatever's tracked in the next linux version23:20
bcurtiswxdtchen: sound preferences --> output tab --> no simultaneous output23:20
dtchenparan: currently it's synced with 2.6.32-rc423:20

dtchenBUGabundo: the audio team PPA has older packages than what's in Karmic proper.23:26
BUGabundook23:26
BUGabundoso you think ext4 may be the root of the prob?23:26
bcurtiswxdtchen: so the only way to get simultaneous output is paprefs?23:26
dtchenbcurtiswx: no, but it's probably the easiest way for you at this moment, given that it's not exposed properly in gnome-volume-control (a bug, of course)23:27
bcurtiswxdtchen: ahh ok... do you know if its reported already?23:27
bcurtiswxi.e. i'd be happy to report it if not23:29
dtchenbcurtiswx: probably, but it really is quite low on my hit list23:29
dtchenas in I won't even look at it for Karmic23:29
parandtchen: I mainly wanted the PS. hopefully it might also improve wpa2-enterpsie stability whan I am at work23:30
bcurtiswxdtchen: well i'll see if i can find it and post a workaround23:30
hggdhwell, I am running pure Karmic right now (i.e., no PPAs), and do not get sound muted at start23:30
dtchenbcurtiswx: the workaround would be "install paprefs, use it (System> Preferences> PulseAudio Preferences> Simultaneous Output)23:31
dtchenhggdh: is /home on ext4?23:31
hggdhdtchen: yes. And paprefs was not installed so far23:31
