jamalta | Hi there, quick question.. is fglrx completely borked in alpha 2? | 01:25 |
---|---|---|
* jamalta is doing another update today to see if issue gets resolved | 01:26 | |
ripps | jamalta: I don't think fglrx works with the xserver and kernel in lucid yet, you'll have to use the -ati driver in the meantime | 01:32 |
onetinsoldier | i'll feel pretty lucky if the the next fglrx driver works with this latest Xorg and bleeding edge kernel ;-) | 01:33 |
jamalta | ripps: let me try that | 01:33 |
jamalta | onetinsoldier: i guess i should have considered that before i upgraded ;) | 01:43 |
jamalta | don't i still have the older kernel? | 01:43 |
* jamalta waits for the upgrade to finish to check the kernels he has | 01:44 | |
jamalta | what's the default kernel in karmic? | 01:46 |
crimsun | jamalta: 2.6.31-14 | 01:46 |
jamalta | crimsun: gracias | 01:46 |

bjsnider | the development snapshot of gnome-shell from today contains a new feature. under the account name menu, there is now a "sidebar" checkbox, that once checked results in a column on the left side of the screen with a list of frequently used applications and a clock. the sidebar can also be made smaller and auto-hides. | 03:17 |
bjsnider | also contains recent documents | 03:17 |
onetinsoldier | thanks for the update bjsnider :) | 03:21 |
RAOF | Um. That's been in there for *ages* | 03:26 |
bjsnider | has it? i didn't notice | 03:26 |
RAOF | Yeah, because it's ugly, space-consuming, and mostly useless. | 03:26 |
bjsnider | it auto-hides | 03:27 |
bjsnider | it has a low-profile mode | 03:27 |
bjsnider | but it is ugly | 03:27 |
bjsnider | right now | 03:27 |
RAOF | Yeah. It's *been* ugly for about 6 months, I think | 03:29 |
RAOF | (It's also been useless for the same period of time) | 03:29 |
RAOF | Unless they've suddenly whipped up an actually interesting sidebar. | 03:29 |
bjsnider | it still doesn't match the black theme | 03:30 |
simba_ | i think gnome-shell still have a long way to go before it is ready for the common user... | 03:30 |
bjsnider | but it has a low-profile mode that makes the icons very small, and then auto-hides it down to a few pixels | 03:30 |
RAOF | The one that I'm seeing goes down to 10-20ish pixels, is ugly, and pointless. Is that the one you're seeing? :) | 03:31 |
bjsnider | i dunno. want to take a screenshot? | 03:32 |
RAOF | Not particularly, really. | 03:35 |
crimsun | hehe, I remember someone (DBO?) once asked me for a screenshot, and I warned that it would be the most boring thing ever: lots of x-terminal-emulators, lots of code | 03:38 |
RAOF | Mine won't be boring; having wandered through the gjs/mozjs wasteland to fix it I'm just a little sick of gnome-shell :). | 03:43 |
bjsnider | RAOF, fix it? it ain't broke | 03:48 |
RAOF | bjsnider: Have you tried to install gnome-shell from the Lucid repositories? | 03:48 |
bjsnider | you meant he dependency on mozjs? | 03:48 |
bjsnider | i'm using a ppa right now. i understand that there was a problem with the one in lucid | 03:49 |
RAOF | Yes. There still is (until gjs gets rebuilt & I queue a gnome-shell build) | 03:50 |
RAOF | It's been broken for some months. | 03:50 |
=== Terminus1 is now known as Terminus | ||
bjsnider | ok, here's a real difference. the new gnome-shell has notifications coming through the bottom of the screen in bubbles | 04:50 |
onetinsoldier | gnome-shell is broken right now though? in lucid? | 04:58 |
bjsnider | gtk themes still look old and one-dimensional. they need a 3d look | 05:00 |

johnflux | Hey all | 07:56 |
johnflux | When I boot up, it gets to the KDE login prompty and the keyboard and mouse don't work | 07:57 |
johnflux | that's if I boot with an older kernel | 07:58 |
johnflux | if I boot with the latest kernel, I get no graphics at all - the screen just goes gray at the time when xorg should start up | 07:58 |
johnflux | anyone know how I can fix it? :-/ | 07:59 |
sharky | maybe what video driver | 08:19 |
JohnFlux | updating fixed xorg :) | 08:25 |
JohnFlux | but now I have no sound | 08:25 |
JohnFlux | also apps crash when I quit. This is a bug in Qt - kubuntu needs to depend on the latest version Qt | 08:25 |
JohnFlux | Qt 4.6.1 | 08:25 |
sharky | good | 08:36 |
JohnFlux | installing pulseaudio fixed the audio :) | 08:37 |
JohnFlux | actually | 08:37 |
JohnFlux | one of my mixers was set to mute | 08:37 |
JohnFlux | that was the reason :-/ | 08:37 |

BUGabundo_remote | morning | 08:46 |
BUGabundo_remote | who can tell me what and where to echo something so my LCD will turn off, remotelly via SSH | 08:47 |
BUGabundo_remote | I forgot to turn it of, and I hate to spend energy :( | 08:47 |
cwillu | ugh, why are my nautilus tabs on the bottom of the window? | 08:51 |
cwillu | BUGabundo_remote, x running? | 08:52 |
BUGabundo_remote | cwillu UI feature | 08:52 |
BUGabundo_remote | they choose to be like that | 08:52 |
cwillu | xset dpms force off | 08:52 |
BUGabundo_remote | I have a bug in LP and upstream | 08:52 |
BUGabundo_remote | applied. how do I test? | 08:52 |
cwillu | heh | 08:52 |
cwillu | "test" | 08:52 |
BUGabundo_remote | since I'm 30 KMs away ? | 08:52 |
cwillu | you'll find out in the morning :p | 08:53 |
cwillu | your default power properties doesn't turn off the backlight after however long? | 08:53 |
BUGabundo_remote | its morning already | 08:53 |
BUGabundo_remote | I left for work... and forgot to turn it off | 08:53 |
BUGabundo_remote | ill be back home in 11h :\ | 08:54 |
cwillu | BUGabundo_remote, actually, even doing a remote chvt (assuming that vt switching works on your setup) should do it, as the kernel should timeout the monitor | 08:55 |
* om26er notices daily live cd have decreased in size | 08:55 | |
cwillu | om26er, oversight, it'll be fixed for alpha3 | 08:55 |
* cwillu insists on cd images that require dvd's to burn :p | 08:55 | |
om26er | is the plan of removing GIMP dropped? | 08:56 |
BUGabundo_remote | cwillu im remotelly connected via FreeNX | 08:57 |
BUGabundo_remote | I have all my X, except for composite/3D | 08:57 |
BUGabundo_remote | or access to TTYs since I can't capture keyboard special keys | 08:57 |
cwillu | ah, in that case I don't think you can turn things off, as the use of the session would reactivate the monitor, no? | 08:58 |
cwillu | might be able to do something with killall -STOP'ing gnome-power-manager and gnome-screensaver, although I'm not sure what other processes may get involved | 08:58 |
cwillu | xorg.log might tell you something of interest as to whether the monitors are staying in suspend/standby though | 08:59 |
BUGabundo_remote | cwillu no, since this is an entirely diff nested X | 09:00 |
cwillu | okay, then what I said originally should work | 09:00 |
BUGabundo_remote | ill see if it worked when I get home | 09:01 |
BUGabundo_remote | you have a beer on me, if it does :D | 09:01 |
cwillu | I can't believe I'm about to use a virtualbox with usb passthrough to get this soundcard working | 09:06 |
BUGabundo_remote | ehe | 09:07 |
JohnFlux | who do I bug to make sure that 10.04 ships with Qt 4.6.1 ? | 09:07 |
BUGabundo_remote | doesn't work with alsa/PA ? | 09:07 |
BUGabundo_remote | and there he goes :\ | 09:08 |
JohnFlux | Will 10.04 use KDE 4.4 ? | 09:09 |
BUGabundo_remote | I would think so | 09:14 |
BUGabundo_remote | hey Sarvatt | 09:14 |
cwillu | BUGabundo_remote, still here :p | 09:16 |
cwillu | BUGabundo_remote, I compiled alsa to make it work once, I'll be damned if I can reproduce it on the machine I need it for though :p | 09:16 |
cwillu | BUGabundo_remote, m-audio fast track ultra | 09:18 |
cwillu | ah, goodie; the device shows up in usb passthrough if I run virtualbox as root | 09:19 |

Ng | noooooo, the new bash-completion got merged with its totally insane host browsing :( | 09:56 |
* Ng works up some calm for a sensible bug report | 09:56 | |
cwillu | Ng, yay, the new bash-completion got merged with the insane completion quoting fixed! :) | 09:56 |
Ng | orly? | 09:57 |
Ng | I didn't have any problems with quoting, but I do very much not want avahi-browse spewing errors and taking 30s to timeout every time I tab complete a hostname ;) | 09:58 |
cwillu | Ng, I use menu-complete (aka hippie completion/tab-per-completion), which has been broken due to some misguided quoting in /etc/bash_completion | 10:03 |
Ng | cwillu: ah | 10:05 |
jpds | I use zsh. | 10:05 |
* cwillu compares jpds to the people who come into #ubuntu to say "I use arch" to the people troubleshooting stuff | 10:06 | |
BUGabundo_remote | jpds: zsh is much better in autcomplete, right? | 10:07 |
jpds | BUGabundo_remote: zsh is the win at everything. | 10:08 |

JohnFlux | 4.6.0 is very buggy, making a lot of programs nearly unusable | 13:53 |
JohnFlux | speed wise, crashes, etc | 13:53 |

JohnFlux | thanks | 13:54 |
gnomefreak | np | 13:55 |
yofel | JohnFlux: you should ask in #kubuntu-devel, but I doubt we will package qt ourselves, usually it's synced from debian | 13:55 |

BUGabundo_remote | Sarvatt: its up and running again? | 15:16 |
BUGabundo_remote | is it instalable even ? | 15:16 |
Sarvatt | has been for a long time now, just not working without KMS yet I dont think | 15:16 |
Sarvatt | and i have no idea JohnFlux, it should be for both but the transition might not be as pretty :D | 15:17 |
yofel | JohnFlux: kubuntu wants to use plymouth too, but afaik there's no artwork yet | 15:18 |
JohnFlux | yofel: cool | 15:18 |
JohnFlux | it's a shame that kubuntu tends to be a second class citizen :-/ | 15:18 |
JohnFlux | btw, I just upgraded from 9.10 to 10.04, and it no longer sees my laptop battery | 15:20 |
JohnFlux | presumably a kernel regression? | 15:20 |
yofel | they don't tend to, they just have very limited manpower, and sometimes they just don't get something done | 15:21 |
yofel | JohnFlux: err... in kde? On bootup it shows 'no battery available' too, once I run byobu in a terminal the battery gets recognized o.O? | 15:22 |
yofel | odd workaround, but it works for me | 15:22 |
simba_ | i hope something like this plymouth theme will become default "space sunrise" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qaSg2rRj4HQ | 15:22 |
yofel | dunno if someone reported that, I've been too busy with other stuff | 15:22 |
JohnFlux | yofel: I just ran that in a terminal.. no battery so far .. :) | 15:23 |
JohnFlux | hmm, this byobu looks interesting though :) | 15:23 |
JohnFlux | yofel: what does it do? :) | 15:23 |
yofel | byobu is profiled screen | 15:24 |
JohnFlux | OO | 15:24 |
yofel | very useful over ssh, but I use it locally too, so if X crashes or so I don't loose my terminal | 15:24 |
JohnFlux | yofel: I toggled the battery display on | 15:24 |
JohnFlux | and now KDE sees my battery :-D | 15:24 |
JohnFlux | yofel: thanks for that :) | 15:25 |
yofel | JohnFlux: oh yeah, I have the battery display on in byobu | 15:25 |

yofel | then again, NM logs into syslog iirc | 16:30 |

yofel | not sure, It's been a while since I debugged NM, you should check the output of 'dmesg' as well as the contents of /var/log/messages and /var/log/syslog after trying to connect | 16:31 |

lnostdal | i do not understand why "nouveau" is being added to something which already is messy .. how do i get rid of this stuff so the driver everyone really wants to use anyway gets to do its thing? .. i'm currently getting "Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig" from glxinfo, and i think it is related to the recently introduced nouveu or something mesa-related "taking over" | 16:41 |

lnostdal | i'll check | 16:52 |
Sarvatt | what version does dpkg -l | grep mesa-utils say it is? | 17:06 |
lnostdal | doing a purge of everything nvidia, then deleting xorg.conf and running nvidia-xconfig to create a new one seems to have helped for most software .. some 32bit stuff seems to load mesa-stuff still though, not sure yet (this is amd64 bit and i'm using a 64 bit os) | 17:08 |
lnostdal | 7.7-0ubuntu8 , Sarvatt | 17:09 |
lnostdal | 190.53-0ubuntu6 for nvidia-current | 17:10 |
lnostdal | yeah, for 32bit stuff (e.g., wine) one need to do stuff like LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib32/nvidia-current/libGL.so | 17:22 |
lnostdal | ..so something's up with the dynamic linking setup or something | 17:22 |
lnostdal | http://lab.bachem-it.com/opengl/qtgears/ is a nice way to test this btw. | 17:28 |

yofel | ManDay: this was fixed in the upstream intel git repository, not in ubuntu yet | 18:20 |
ManDay | Ok, so where do I find it? | 18:21 |
ManDay | (Is the inteil git repo on l/p?) | 18:21 |
yofel | ManDay: and according to comment #104 this is fixed in the xorg-updates ppa | 18:22 |
ManDay | so with an up-to-date system it should be fixed indeed? | 18:22 |
yofel | no, the fix is not in the karmic main archive but in the xorg-updates ppa and in Lucid | 18:23 |
yofel | ManDay: follow the link to the ppa in comment 104 to get instructions how to get the updated package | 18:23 |
yofel | hm, wait, it *should* be fixed in lucid if I get this right | 18:26 |
yofel | now I'm confused myself -.- | 18:26 |
ManDay | -.- | 18:33 |
ManDay | When do you reckon will the patch make it to the main archives? | 18:34 |
ManDay | the bug itsself is hardly bearable, and unpredictable somewhat. sometimes it happens sometimes not | 18:34 |
ManDay | but whenever it happens you loose all data and the FS gets totally messed up | 18:35 |

Mike1_ | the current 1.1.16 plays flac-files in a very disorted way | 20:38 |

BUGabundo | cwillu: don't know if you got my message | 21:39 |
BUGabundo | cwillu: but that tip you gave me didn't work... LCD was still on | 21:40 |
yofel | lcd? | 21:40 |
yofel | BUGabundo: you can't turn the screen off? | 21:41 |
BUGabundo | yofel: not when I'm 30KMs away | 21:42 |
BUGabundo | and forgot the LCD on | 21:43 |
BUGabundo | I hate to spend energy | 21:43 |
BUGabundo | so I asked if anyone knew how to turn if off | 21:43 |
BUGabundo | the laptop LCD | 21:43 |
yofel | wasn't there something like 'xset dpms force off' ? | 21:43 |
yofel | works on my eeePC here | 21:43 |
BUGabundo | yes | 21:43 |
BUGabundo | humm | 21:44 |
BUGabundo | well it does turn it off | 21:44 |
BUGabundo | but not tottaly | 21:44 |
yofel | and force standby / suspend? | 21:45 |
BUGabundo | same | 21:46 |
yofel | :/ | 21:46 |
BUGabundo | its close enouth | 21:46 |
BUGabundo | what I really wanted was to do the same as the hardware button | 21:46 |
BUGabundo | but not sure I can do it via soft | 21:47 |
BUGabundo | maybe a kernel echo to somewhere | 21:47 |
Ian_Corne | new ff boots really fast | 21:49 |
Ian_Corne | :) | 21:49 |
BUGabundo | 3.6? yes it's a new kind of build | 21:50 |
BUGabundo | static linked | 21:50 |
BUGabundo | but I tested it all today | 21:50 |
BUGabundo | Chromium beats them by allot | 21:50 |
BUGabundo | firefox-3.7 "http://people.canonical.com/~asac/tmp/startup.html#"`python -c 'import time; print int(time.time() * 1000);'` | 21:51 |
BUGabundo | firefox "http://people.canonical.com/~asac/tmp/startup.html#"`python -c 'import time; print int(time.time() * 1000);'` | 21:51 |
BUGabundo | chromium-browser –user-data-dir=/tmp/chrome "http://people.canonical.com/~asac/tmp/startup.html#"`python -c 'import time; print int(time.time() * 1000);'` | 21:51 |
BUGabundo | hi emma | 21:51 |
emma | Hi there BUGabundo | 21:52 |
IDWMaster | I got the <10 second boot time working now. | 22:04 |
IDWMaster | It boots in 5 seconds | 22:04 |
IDWMaster | Wasn't the goal about 10 seconds or less? | 22:05 |
bjsnider | 5 seconds? | 22:05 |
IDWMaster | Yes, on an i7 CPU | 22:05 |
bjsnider | with a standard magnetic drive? | 22:05 |
BUGabundo | SSD? | 22:05 |
IDWMaster | Standard drive. 5 seconds is the time to the login screen | 22:06 |
bjsnider | it might be instantaneous on an SSD then | 22:06 |
BUGabundo | I don't believe it | 22:06 |
BUGabundo | get me bootcharts | 22:06 |
BUGabundo | or it didn't happen | 22:06 |
IDWMaster | How do I get those? | 22:06 |
* BUGabundo uploads newer pngs | 22:06 | |
BUGabundo | IDWMaster: install bootchart | 22:07 |
BUGabundo | and reboot a few times | 22:07 |
yofel | !bootchart | 22:07 |
ubottu | bootchart charts your machine at boot time, to install >> sudo apt-get install bootchart << the graphic is in /var/log/bootchart after the next reboot | 22:07 |
IDWMaster | Installing | 22:07 |
BUGabundo | there we go | 22:07 |
IDWMaster | Generating kernel image | 22:07 |
bjsnider | 10 seconds is the goal i think. 5 seconds would be a major overachievment | 22:07 |
IDWMaster | I'll be back | 22:08 |
BUGabundo | ok its more then 10 sec till he get back | 22:08 |
Tscheesy | ^^ | 22:09 |
RAOF | Now with irc client that won't (hopefully) bounce after netsplits! | 22:09 |
BUGabundo | 1 min now | 22:09 |
BUGabundo | RAOF: LOL | 22:09 |
bjsnider | maybe he's looking at the boot chart | 22:09 |
BUGabundo | ahha | 22:09 |
BUGabundo | 2 min down | 22:09 |
BUGabundo | bahh | 22:09 |
BUGabundo | failed reboot | 22:09 |
yofel | no, booted in 5 seconds, but now X crashes on every login :P | 22:11 |
bjsnider | maybe he's doctoring the bootchart so it falsely reports that it took 5 seconds | 22:11 |
Tscheesy | maybe it was the machine next to him he booted before | 22:11 |
BUGabundo | I'm uploading newer ones to http://bootcharts.f.bugabundo.net/ | 22:13 |
BUGabundo | very very old ones here http://fileland.bugabundo.net/fotos/Linux/bootchart/ | 22:14 |
bjsnider | nothing has been changed in the lucid archive that would cause this guy to boot in 5 seconds right? | 22:14 |
BUGabundo | upload done | 22:16 |
BUGabundo | incase anyone want to check out | 22:16 |
BUGabundo | bjsnider: not to my knowlage | 22:16 |
bjsnider | how long does it take you? | 22:16 |
BUGabundo | douh he does have a very fast CPU | 22:16 |
RAOF | Well, on a significantly faster processor than the 10 second netbook-boot, I'd guess that 5 seconds isn't beyond the realms of possibility. | 22:16 |
BUGabundo | bjsnider: why ask? you have the same data as me :D | 22:16 |
BUGabundo | RAOF: I had a friend do 9 secs on SSD in karmic | 22:17 |
BUGabundo | so its possible | 22:17 |
RAOF | SSDs make booting fun! | 22:17 |
BUGabundo | kernel .32 is faster too | 22:17 |
BUGabundo | ssds make resume FUN | 22:17 |
Sarvatt | resume?! | 22:17 |
BUGabundo | from hibernate | 22:18 |
Sarvatt | suspend/resume is <1 second with a crappy rotational | 22:18 |
IDWMaster | Where do I upload the file? | 22:18 |
BUGabundo | wb IDWMaster | 22:18 |
BUGabundo | Sarvatt: not from hibernate (to disk) | 22:18 |
IDWMaster | Where do I go to upload it? | 22:18 |
BUGabundo | IDWMaster: imgbin ? | 22:18 |
BUGabundo | dropbox? | 22:18 |
BUGabundo | ubuntu one ? | 22:18 |
BUGabundo | IDWMaster: here are mine http://bootcharts.f.bugabundo.net/ | 22:19 |
BUGabundo | 24 sec to me, till GDS | 22:20 |
BUGabundo | *GDM | 22:20 |
yofel | here's mine: EeePC 1000H with SSD http://yofel.dyndns.org/ext/yofel-eee-lucid-20100121-1.png | 22:21 |
BUGabundo | 19secs | 22:21 |
BUGabundo | not bed | 22:21 |
IDWMaster | OK. I found an image hosting service at ELCNET Cloud Computing. I'll create an account and upload there | 22:21 |
BUGabundo | but I expected much better | 22:21 |
IDWMaster | I'll report back when I'm done uploading | 22:21 |
BUGabundo | LOL IDWMaster | 22:21 |
yofel | wtf? | 22:21 |
bjsnider | IDWMaster, did it take 5 seconds that time too? | 22:21 |
BUGabundo | yofel: don't you agree 19 is too much ? | 22:22 |
BUGabundo | why did he leave!?!? | 22:24 |
BUGabundo | bjsnider: how long are yours in karmic? | 22:24 |
yofel | BUGabundo: well, it takes 8 till Xorg, and KDM was never that fast | 22:25 |
BUGabundo | ehe | 22:25 |
BUGabundo | your SSD peaks at 91MBs | 22:26 |
BUGabundo | mine 5400 peaks at 61 | 22:26 |
BUGabundo | your services kill you | 22:27 |
BUGabundo | mysql and SSH | 22:27 |
yofel | huh? why the f*** do I have mysqld running here o.O | 22:27 |
bjsnider | BUGabundo, to the login screen 15 seconds i think | 22:27 |
yofel | ssh is wanted | 22:28 |
BUGabundo | LOLOL | 22:28 |
BUGabundo | yofel: KDE uses mysql DB ! | 22:28 |
yofel | ah, might be | 22:28 |
BUGabundo | bjsnider: bootcharts or it didn't happen | 22:28 |
leftyfb | yofel: kill ipv6 and you might get ssh to start faster | 22:28 |
bjsnider | too lazy for that | 22:28 |
yofel | leftyfb: how? | 22:29 |
BUGabundo | yofel: kernel paramter | 22:29 |
leftyfb | http://www.webupd8.org/2009/11/how-to-disable-ipv6-in-ubuntu-910.html | 22:29 |
BUGabundo | only way now, since its built in | 22:29 |
yofel | leftyfb, BUGabundo: thx, I'll check it | 22:30 |
IDWMaster | http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_-KbV7gGu2d8/S1jVLoJqn1I/AAAAAAAAAC4/z3tAy_wMgKo/s1600/brian-desktop-lucid-20100121-2.png | 22:31 |
BUGabundo | cool | 22:31 |
BUGabundo | humm | 22:31 |
BUGabundo | too small | 22:31 |
BUGabundo | :( | 22:31 |
yofel | lol | 22:31 |
BUGabundo | IDWMaster: you got a bigger, non compressed one ? | 22:32 |
IDWMaster | I'll look into another service | 22:32 |
Sarvatt | http://sarvatt.com/downloads/asuka-lucid-20100121-2.png | 22:32 |
BUGabundo | IDWMaster: http://imagebin.ca/ | 22:32 |
Sarvatt | plymouth solar theme uses a *ton* of cpu there :D | 22:32 |
BUGabundo | Sarvatt: I would redo my ureadahead list :( | 22:32 |
BUGabundo | yours is HUGGEEEE | 22:32 |
BUGabundo | Sarvatt: your poor atom is going crazy | 22:33 |
IDWMaster | 5 seconds to Xserver init, 13 seconds for everything else to load it looks like | 22:33 |
BUGabundo | up and down | 22:33 |
BUGabundo | Sarvatt: 3.5sec udev is too much for that netboot :\ | 22:33 |
BUGabundo | and 62 MB/s aint that great for an SSD | 22:34 |
BUGabundo | do you have it booting from a slower SSD? | 22:34 |
Sarvatt | this isnt an SSD | 22:34 |
BUGabundo | it isn't ?!?! | 22:34 |
BUGabundo | that explains a lot | 22:34 |
BUGabundo | lol | 22:34 |
BUGabundo | 31 secs to GDM | 22:34 |
BUGabundo | plymouth and nautilus are using lost of CPU | 22:35 |
BUGabundo | hey JontheEchidna | 22:35 |
JontheEchidna | hi | 22:36 |
BUGabundo | JontheEchidna: we are comparing bootcharts, care so share yours ? | 22:36 |
IDWMaster | Full resolution | 22:36 |
IDWMaster | http://elcnet.servehttp.com/resources/cloud/images/1cc7254e353198408c09735923e1a87fbrian-desktop-lucid-20100121-2.png | 22:36 |
BUGabundo | would be nice to see a few from KDE | 22:36 |
JontheEchidna | I must profess I haven't been doing bootcharts | 22:36 |
BUGabundo | oh oh | 22:36 |
JontheEchidna | s/profess/confess | 22:36 |
IDWMaster | Actual time looks like 13 for everything :( | 22:36 |
IDWMaster | Not sure if I'm reading it right though? | 22:37 |
IDWMaster | Is the number at the top the time for all services to start? | 22:37 |
BUGabundo | IDWMaster: really short bootchart | 22:37 |
BUGabundo | lucky u | 22:37 |
BUGabundo | IDWMaster: its time tilll it stop... a few secs after login, and IO calms down | 22:38 |
IDWMaster | OK. | 22:38 |
IDWMaster | So 13 is good? | 22:38 |
IDWMaster | http://elcnet.servehttp.com/resources/cloud/images/1cc7254e353198408c09735923e1a87fbrian-desktop-lucid-20100121-2.png | 22:38 |
IDWMaster | Does the link work? | 22:38 |
BUGabundo | you got 3.8 sec to GDM | 22:38 |
IDWMaster | It should be full-resolution according to the documentation. | 22:38 |
IDWMaster | That's really good! | 22:38 |
BUGabundo | yes it works | 22:38 |
BUGabundo | your modem manager is making you loose like 1,5 sec | 22:39 |
BUGabundo | do you have 3G or something IDWMaster? | 22:39 |
IDWMaster | I have IDW access (new type of connection) | 22:39 |
IDWMaster | It's a beta protocol | 22:39 |
IDWMaster | P2P virtual networking | 22:40 |
BUGabundo | don't know what that is | 22:40 |
BUGabundo | is it like n2n or hamachi? | 22:40 |
IDWMaster | It's a virtual networking adapter that speeds up the connection, and it allows the resolution of IDW addresses | 22:40 |
IDWMaster | IDW is P2P based, but requires low-level support | 22:40 |
IDWMaster | Addresses like IDW://idw.elc.ids | 22:41 |
IDWMaster | That's why my name's IDWMaster | 22:41 |
BUGabundo | weird | 22:41 |
BUGabundo | yeah I figured as much | 22:41 |
BUGabundo | link so I can read it later | 22:41 |
BUGabundo | please | 22:41 |
IDWMaster | Read the boot chart? | 22:42 |
IDWMaster | http://elcnet.servehttp.com/resources/cloud/images/1cc7254e353198408c09735923e1a87fbrian-desktop-lucid-20100121-2.png | 22:42 |
IDWMaster | I'm not sure why it boots so fast now. | 22:42 |
BUGabundo | yeo | 22:42 |
IDWMaster | It just suddenly started booting faster. | 22:42 |
BUGabundo | LOL | 22:43 |
IDWMaster | It didn't see all of my RAM before either. | 22:43 |
IDWMaster | I'm using an Asus motherboard, and only 4GB of RAM. | 22:43 |
BUGabundo | IDWMaster: what kernel you have? | 22:43 |
IDWMaster | DDR3 | 22:43 |
BUGabundo | maybe a bug in bios, or wrong aberture hole | 22:43 |
IDWMaster | I have 2.6.32-10-generic | 22:43 |
BUGabundo | but is it 32bits or 64 ? | 22:44 |
IDWMaster | 64 bit | 22:44 |
BUGabundo | check a bios upgrade then | 22:44 |
IDWMaster | It says everything in the bootchart. | 22:44 |
IDWMaster | Disk throughput is 143MBPS | 22:44 |
BUGabundo | or docs on the memory hole | 22:44 |
BUGabundo | eheh | 22:44 |
IDWMaster | I'll try booting from SSD later when I get one of those drives. | 22:45 |
IDWMaster | I don't have one yet though. | 22:45 |
IDWMaster | I used to be able to boot from an SD card | 22:45 |
bjsnider | IDWMaster, you're using dual-channel DDR with a core i7? | 22:46 |
IDWMaster | Yes. | 22:46 |
bjsnider | unfortunate | 22:47 |
IDWMaster | What's the memory hole by the way? | 22:47 |
bjsnider | the place where inconvenient information is thrown in the book "1984" | 22:48 |
BUGabundo | IDWMaster: a way motherboards specify how to address more then 3GB of RAM | 22:48 |
IDWMaster | I use Mono for development, and that starts almost instantly | 22:49 |
IDWMaster | How do you compile apps for 64 bit in Mono? | 22:50 |
IDWMaster | I only see 32 bit options for some reason. | 22:50 |
IDWMaster | I'm working on a unified chat program which uses the IDW adapter. | 22:51 |
IDWMaster | It's on Launchpad | 22:52 |
IDWMaster | https://launchpad.net/universal | 22:52 |
IDWMaster | Just started it though | 22:52 |
XiXaQ | I'm really excited about gnome-shell and zeitgeist. I'd like to hear from people with experience from it in lucid. | 23:07 |
BUGabundo | XiXaQ: seems most that tried it didn't like it | 23:07 |
XiXaQ | like it? The features or the current state of affairs? | 23:08 |
XiXaQ | I've used gnome-shell for a while, and I really love it. | 23:08 |
XiXaQ | I hated it to begin with, but someone I know to be very competent spoke warmly about it, so I gave it a second go, and when I got used to it, I began to see the big advantages of it. I haven't looked at zeitgeist yet, though, but that's also something I've been longing for forever. | 23:09 |
XiXaQ | tagging is much better than navigating through hierarchies, I think. | 23:10 |
BUGabundo | I guess it needs to be hammered into our habbits | 23:11 |
BUGabundo | just like bottom nautilus tabs :\ | 23:11 |
BluesKaj | XiXaQ, so what are the gnome-shell advantages in your experience? | 23:12 |
XiXaQ | much better workspaces, for instance. | 23:13 |
XiXaQ | and I like the activities pane. | 23:13 |
IDWMaster | I've ran another bootchart | 23:52 |
IDWMaster | It boots slower on SSDs than moving disks for some reason | 23:53 |
IDWMaster | Although the raw transfer speed is a lot faster on SSDs | 23:53 |
IDWMaster | 310MBPS compared to 143MBPS | 23:53 |
IDWMaster | 3.8 sec boot time to GDM is pretty fast | 23:54 |
simba_ | i run lucid of ssd, and i think it is very responcive, havent tried bootchart yet | 23:55 |
IDWMaster | use | 23:55 |
IDWMaster | apt-get install bootchart | 23:55 |
IDWMaster | Then look in /var/logs/bootchart | 23:55 |
yofel | /var/log/bootchart | 23:56 |
IDWMaster | Intel SSD? | 23:56 |
IDWMaster | Has anyone compared SSD boot performance to regular HDD performance yet? | 23:57 |
simba_ | not sure who makes them....it is kingston stickers on :P | 23:57 |
IDWMaster | Is it one of the 80GB models? | 23:57 |
simba_ | 128 | 23:58 |
simba_ | testing...brb | 23:58 |
IDWMaster | Must not be Intel. | 23:58 |
