[03:02] weird... my notify-osd is really, really, really tiny. [03:02] Looks like size 2 font, whereas the rest of my desktop uses 8.5 point font. [03:02] Okay, maybe it's 3 points. [03:03] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/notify-osd/+bug/469508 [03:03] Ubuntu bug 469508 in notify-osd "notify-osd becomes tiny on non-integer font sizes (dup-of: 396736)" [Medium,Triaged] [03:03] Ubuntu bug 396736 in notify-osd "notify-osd seems to be unable to use some of the fonts" [Medium,In progress] [03:12] grr, gnome's zero-volume-is-exactly-the-same-as-mute behavior irks me to no end. [03:12] Because zero volume should NOT assert the mute pin! [03:13] Then again, KDE did something even weirder: every time it tried to play a sound, it actually deactivated the hardware-mute! [03:13] why not? [03:13] zero master volume is not equal to mute? [03:14] In Windows, I can hold volume-down and hit zero-volume without the mute LED going orange. [03:14] Some test case: press hardware mute. Turn volume to zero. Turn volume back up. Card will unmute. [03:14] In Windows, it will stay muted. [03:15] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/332081 [03:15] so you want to be able to adjust the volume while muted [03:15] Ubuntu bug 332081 in gnome-settings-daemon "Panel volume icon state changes to "mute" when volume reaches zero" [Low,New] [03:19] Interestingly enough, when Windows Media Center is open, then Windows does do the zero-asserts-mute thing. [03:19] here's another thing you can do on windows: get a severe virus infection [03:19] Not if you're not a n00bcake. [03:20] Or at least, it's harder. [03:23] I also had the annoyance of my rfkill LED blinking on network activity, until I installed the compat-wireless stuff and set led_mode. [03:25] *blue*orange*blue*orange*blue*orange*blue*orange*blue*orange* [03:45] hmm, all that new GTK alpha stuff... will that mean we can use alpha-transparent wallpapers and have them actually work (and show the underlying stuff through compositing)? [03:47] sure [04:02] Oh, and I found a wallpaper that looks nice with the latest Human theme in the repos (still same as Karmic?). [04:02] Now we just need gnome-appearance-properties to offer the Alpha channel setting. =þ [04:09] those types of features will be worked into future mutter versions [04:19] Mutter? What does Mutter have to do with it? [04:20] All we need is the option to choose R,G,B,A in gnome desktop settings thingy, instead of just R,G,B. [04:20] ... and have it do the same for loaded png images, and such -- keep the alpha channel. [04:21] I'm curious about this "client-decorated windows" thing, though. [04:21] Interesting use case for the alpha stuff: compiz cube, with wallpaper being an image of a window or a door, with transparent inside. [04:21] So, if you look through the window or door, you see the other virtual desktops. [04:47] I have recently installed ubuntu 9.10 karmic version. Its fast and every things work. I want to setup my WIFI. The GUI is not helping me to setup. Can anyone help Please? [04:53] colombofish, not in this channel. go to #ubuntu [05:24] oh, and I wish eog had alpha channel support. [05:24] That is, alpha in the image would make it REALLY transparent. [05:30] DanaG is all about the desktop bling [05:30] Actually, that could be useful. [05:30] Bling for bling's sake is silly if overdone... but used correctly, effects can be nice. [05:31] I'd love to be able to preview images with transparent parts actually being transparent. [05:31] oh, so you think compiz is silly? [05:31] No, but "burn", specifically, is. [05:31] and the stupid water effects? [05:31] They're amusing to play with, but I don't use the ripple notification -- too distracting. [05:32] I use Lamp for min/unmin, Dream for open, and Sidekick for close. [05:32] and menus use Vacuum. [05:32] So it's like the mouse cursor "slurps" up the menus. [05:32] And I have the times short... 250 ms or less. [05:33] i hope the gnome-devs don't bother with any of that on gnome-shell [05:33] Why? Just because you don't like it, doesn't mean it shouldn't be possible. [05:34] I don't like anchovies.... does that mean pizza makers should stop offering anchovies? [05:34] Not the best analogy, but, eh. [05:34] because other than close, none of the things exist anymore [05:35] well, i guess menus still do [05:35] As it is right now, when the animations for close and minimize were exactly the same..... that's bad. [05:35] in individual programs [05:35] And the open animation sucked last time I tried it. [05:35] With my compiz settings, my desktop feels snazzy, but not stupid. [05:37] compiz has too many options, too many plugins, too many things that can be turned on/off [05:54] I'd agree with that, actually. [05:54] Same thing with qtcurve.... options paralysis. [05:54] ... but that's even worse. [05:54] Actually, most of my settings could even be done with simple-ccsm. [05:55] i like simple-ccsm [05:55] I did have to change window-types a bit.... group dialog with regular-window, and popup and dropdown and such menus together. [05:55] but i'm sure the fact that the options and plugins exist at all is cause for hte code to overly large/slow/complex [05:55] http://users.csc.calpoly.edu/~dgoyette/Dana_Compiz.profile [05:56] weird... I hit super-w, and my whole desktop went transparent-ish. [05:56] That's supposed to trigger water. [05:57] Time to disable water, then. [05:57] hmm, and colorfilter isn't working. [05:58] I have super-tab set to circle-switcher, and alt-tab is static switcher with animation speed set to be essentially instant. [06:01] http://users.csc.calpoly.edu/~dgoyette/bootcharts/EliteBook-lucid-20100105-4.png [06:01] hmm, boot has gotten a bit cleaner now.

[19:13] i'll take a look. just a sec [19:34] update gnome cache fail for anyone besides me? [19:40] hi [19:40] does anybody know how to change wacom settings in lucid? [19:40] there is no Xorg.conf anymore to edit [19:41] I'd like to set my mouse to relative mode [19:42] is launchpad down? [19:42] i can't seem to file a bug report [19:53] does lucid have currently problems with locales? [19:59] back. yofel, there's nothing special at xorg's log [20:02] http://pastebin.com/d2ea69b61 [20:29] Anyone have any experience getting radeonhd with kms up and running (kernel 2.6.33)? [20:30] Without passing radeon.modeset=1 to the kernel, everything is working fine, except for KMS, which I'd really like (for vblank). [20:30] I'm using 2.6.33-rc3 from mainline, plus radeonhd and libdrm for the xorg-edgers PPA [20:31] The R600_rlc.bin R700_rlc.bin firmware files are in place. [20:32] Whenever I boot with radeon.modeset=1 (or add radeon modeset=1 to /etc/modules), I just get a solid black or white screen when X starts. Hitting control alt f1 refreshes a black screen, and I can press control alt delete to reboot, indicating that things are not hung === _sky is now known as skydrome [21:05] is there a specific channel i should go into with requests for packaging of new perl modules? or should i just submit bugs to debian [21:54] hi i'd like to help out and submit bugs, but i'm not advanced enough to deal with major "system breaking" bugs. i have expierience with past ubuntu alpha releases and up until now i hadn't had any major problems. at the moment is lucid fairly stable and good to start playing around with? [22:02] hey gyus [22:02] puchat3k: Fairly? I'm not aware of any system-eating bugs at the moment, but the day is still young! [22:02] gonna be a bit OT, so please bare with me. [22:02] I got this [22:02] gst-launch-0.10 v4l2src ! ffmpegcolorspace ! videoscale ! video/x-raw-rgb ! pngenc compression-level=9 ! filesink location=foo.png [22:03] but I need the equivalent to save as JPG [22:03] help wanted :D thanks in advance [22:03] BUGabundo: You know, there's #gstreamer on this very network :). Anyway... you want to grab just a single image from your v4l2src? [22:03] yep [22:04] pics hourly [22:04] jpegenc doesn't work? [22:04] * BUGabundo heads to #gstreamer [22:04] RAOF: WARNING: erroneous pipeline: no element "jpgenc" [22:04] le me swap jpg for jpeg [22:04] WARNING: erroneous pipeline: no property "compression-level" in element "jpegenc0" [22:04] jpeg: jpegenc: JPEG image encoder [22:05] BUGabundo: gst-inspect jpegenc [22:05] You're probably after “quality" [22:06] RAOF: jpegenc quality=9 ? [22:06] RAOF, hey, thanks i'm downloading an image know, i'll try it out in virtualbox for a couple of days and then maybe try to install it on one of my boxes, thanks for the info :-) [22:06] or 85 % ? [22:07] BUGabundo: Given gst-inspect says quality goes from 0-100, with a default of 85, I'd suggest that quality 9 is probably pretty crap. [22:07] ahah [22:07] ill try 85 [22:07] You don't actually need to set that unless you want to be explicit; the default is 85. [22:08] $ gst-launch-0.10 v4l2src ! ffmpegcolorspace ! videoscale ! video/x-raw-rgb ! jpegenc quality=85 ! filesink location=hour.jpg [22:08] WARNING: erroneous pipeline: could not link videoscale0 to jpegenc0 [22:10] We're both looking at http://pastebin.ca/1740727 , right? [22:10] that doesn't do it RAOF [22:10] nor the tip I got at #gtreamer [22:10] gst-launch-0.10 v4l2src ! ffmpegcolorspace ! videoscale ! jpegenc ! filesink location=foo.jpg [22:11] it just gets stuck [22:11] Notice the SINK specification there - in the “capabilities" line it says “video/raw-x-yuv", but you're trying to feed it x-raw-rgb. [22:27] am I missing something with not being able to do full disk encryption off the life CD...it looks like the download from LP is 501.7 KB [22:27] https://launchpad.net/ecryptfs [22:28] hey douglasawh [22:28] BUGabundo: sup [22:28] having fun [22:28] hacking away my webcam [22:28] to do daily photos of me :D [22:28] life == live ^^ [22:28] good stuff [22:29] I was hoping this would be changed in Lucid, but it's not in the alpha 1 installer :( [22:30] having a fight with crontab [22:39] is their a ubiquity IRC channel? [23:36] does it matter that grub is .97 and grub-common is 1.97? [23:36] and what's the deal with the .97 naming convention? [23:40] * Crashbit pira pal sobre [23:49] douglasawh-work: That's where grub upstream wants to say “This is (still) beta".
