BUGabundosummel: it does02:12
summelnot for me :(02:12
BUGabundobut implies you lose border scroll02:12
summeli cant check the checkbox02:12
summel:o02:12
BUGabundoahh02:12
summeli dont want that02:12
summel2fingers = way better imho ^^02:12
summelbut the hardware supports 2finger scrolling... on mac os and windows02:13
BUGabundoI used to have BOTH02:13
BUGabundowfm02:13
BUGabundobut now we have "pseudo-choise"02:13
BUGabundoie only ONE02:13
BUGabundoduh02:13
summelhm02:13
DanaGyeah, I griped about that, too... you have side or 2-finger, but not both?02:19
summeli have side and none but no 2finger on ubuntu02:21
summelbut i want 2finger or both02:21
summelbut side scrolling is not important02:21
summel^^02:21
summelcan i configure alt+tab to use all windows and not only the ones from the current desktop?02:43
BUGabundosummel: not sure...02:44
yofelin KDE yes02:44
BUGabundoI think compiz has an optiong02:44
yofelbut compiz should know that too02:44
summeli know it is possible in kde02:44
summel<3 kde02:45
BUGabundometacidy doesn't02:45
summelyes, but it should not be neccesarry to install compiz-config-thingy only for THAT option oO02:45
BUGabundono02:45
yofelin compiz there were different switchers with their own configuration in CCSM02:45
summel>_>02:48
summelcompizfail02:48
yofelwell, the only difference is that in KDE the settings diaglog is already installed, in gnome you have to install it first02:49
summelno kde does not use compiz at all02:49
yofelsince the default gnome keyboard shortcut settings are VERY...02:49
summelper default that is02:49
yofelsummel: well, yeah, but the kwin settings are part of KDE, the compiz settings are separate from gnome.02:50
yofelwell, gnome doesn't have compositing by default02:50
summelthats why compiz sucks :)02:50
summelits an add-on02:50
summelnot properly built in02:50
yofeltrue02:51
summeland poorly coded02:51
summel:p02:51
yofel*that's* a different issue :P02:51
summel:D02:51
yofelwell, kwin isn't bug-free either, so let's leave it at that02:52
summelhmm alt+tab also ignores the empathy contact list btw02:52
summeli never found a bug in kwin :P02:52

bjsniderodd. gnome-shell doesn't do any of that here, but i'm on nvidia, not radeon03:49
RAOFAnd gnome-shell likes Intel just fine.03:50
bjsniderwhat is up with that radeon driver03:50
bjsnider* shakes head *03:50
DanaGI say, what is up with gnome-shell?03:50
DanaGNothing else acts quite so broken.03:50
DanaGI mean, if I press a key... what is it doing with it to make it not show up?03:51
DanaGMust be doing something weird.03:51
bjsnideri wonder what would happen if you were using fglrx03:52
DanaGLast time I tried, it gave a screen full of garbage.03:53
DanaGkwin and compiz were both fine, however.03:53
yofelBUGabundo: firefox-3.6 in the daily ppa is broken isn't it? Or is it just me03:55
BUGabundoyofel: Archive should have updated version03:56

oCean_just installed 10.04 alpha 2 in vbox. Everything fine. Ran all available updates (like 175+) all *seemed* ok, reboot required. At reboot: "GRUB loading" appears, then there's only black/blank screen.12:00
simba_2.6.32-11 kernel?12:02
oCean_simba_: see, I don't know atm, since i had to reboot after updates, and now it just hangs at black screen. It installed latest updates ... might be the 32-11 ?12:03
simba_oCean_, try using the 2.6.32-10,12:03
oCean_there's no grub menu to choose from. Only "GRUB loading"12:03
QPrimedoubt its the kernel, likely a grub issue.12:03
QPrimeis that box multi boot?12:04
oCean_QPrime: nope, just fresh vbox12:04
QPrimeahh yes... ok12:04
oCean_I could try re-install, and leave kernel out of the updates..12:05
QPrimesounds like grub is choking right after the initial mbr load. :(12:05
simba_oCean_, know others had same problem with vbox and that kernel update...try searching bugs in launchpad12:05
oCean_ah, ok. I'll have a look there.12:06
QPrimesimba_: why do you think its kernel related when grub never loads fully?12:07
simba_QPrime, because earlier ppl said they loaded 2.6.32-10 ok12:08
oCean_might as well try another install and *not* update kernel12:09
QPrimefair enough, but at the point of failure the kernel is not even involved yet.12:09
arand_Yea, I'm having the can't boot -11 but -10, on a VBox, but seems to be happening on physical machines as well12:10
QPrimejust did an update and there was a grub update... I'd point the finger at that first :(12:10
QPrimearand_: but doe you get a grub menu on boot?12:10
arand_QPrime: Yes, do you not even get to the menu?12:11
QPrimearand_: yes - grub is fine here.12:11
QPrimeI'm just saying that this issue (with a grub failure) is not likely a kernel issue12:12
QPrimeoCean_ claimed that after update he did not get a grub menu.12:12
arand_Ah, hmm, just joined, jumped into discussion prematurely :(12:13
* QPrime points the finger at grub not the kernel.12:13
aciculaso livecd, reinstall grub on the mbr and retry?12:13
arand_Yea, if no grub menu, definitely grub issue..12:13
oCean_2nd install is on it's way, then I'll do the updates and omit kernel and grub updates12:13
QPrimeits grub2 so live cd and grub-install i would imagine12:14
simba_grub dont give menu if no other os installed12:14
simba_maybe a press something for menu, dont remember right now12:14
QPrimesimba_: it will with multiple kernels (or if configured to present a menu)12:14
arand_hold down shift on boot, if it's just a matter of it not showing up..12:15
oCean_simba_: no menu, even when there are 2 kernel versions? As i understand there was a -11 in the updates12:15
QPrimeoCean_: you should get a menu.12:16
arand_oCean_: only when you have more than two OSes I think, not when you have multiple kernels...12:16
arand_*more than one12:16
simba_oCean_, yes i have several kernels in my grub.cfg, but never see a menu, but i havent had any problems booting yet, so havent needed to look for it12:17
QPrimewell my test box is a multi-boot so I'm I'm likely wrong on the menu then.12:18
QPrimeoCean_: you can always force a menu via /etc/default/grub I think.12:19
oCean_2nd install is running, I'll have a look using live cd at first installation (the updated one)12:20
simba_oCean_, for grub2 documentation: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=119527512:20
oCean_simba_: found that. Thanks12:21
QPrimesimba_: nice guide.12:26
oCean_simba_: QPrime on original (and updated) installation, booted using livedisk, mounted system partition and did grub-install --root-dir etcetera, then rebooted, and still nothing after the "GRUB loading"12:28
simba_oCean_, you did grub-install from livecd?12:30
QPrimeoCean_: I running lucid on real hardware so I'm not sure what the issue might be. :(  possible kernel/vbox issue?12:30
oCean_ah wait12:31
oCean_holding down the shift key while in "GRUB loading" screen does result in grub menu.12:31
QPrimeok, grub works :)12:31
oCean_trying to boot from the 32-11 fails, where 32-10 does boot!12:31
QPrimekernel and vbox issue then possibly.  -11 works on my test (real) box.12:32
oCean_so we nailed it down to the 32-11 (in-combination-with-vbox that is?)12:32
oCean_aah12:32
aciculawhat message does it hang on?12:32
oCean_no msg at all. It reverts to black screen12:33
QPrimewhat about -11 recovery?12:33
QPrimefrom grub12:33
oCean_well, and *now* the 2nd install is completed of course :)12:33
oCean_QPrime: will try that now, hang on12:34
oCean_QPrime: here it is: http://paste.ubuntu.com/361219/ "unsupported CPU model"12:38
QPrimewhat version of vbox are you using?12:40
QPrimeand if you take a look at dmesg in vbox using -10 do you see the same message?12:41
oCean_version: 308_ose (r53138) - and this issue appeared before: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=131626212:42
QPrime:(12:45
oCean_QPrime: it appears in the dmesg of the -10 too12:46
oCean_however, it does not say "checking hlt instruction", instead: weird, boot CPU (#0) not listed by the bios.12:46
oCean_weird cpu :)12:46
QPrime*grin* "gonzo cpu"12:49
oCean_best would be to file this @LP, I guess?12:49
QPrimeI would agree12:49
QPrimelook for other reports as well.12:49
simba_as i said i think it already are there12:50
oCean_QPrime: yep. I can narrow down the search now simba_12:50
simba_it was unclassified last i saw it12:50
* QPrime defers to simba_12:51
QPrimeon a happier note I now can play with kms on my test box (ati)  - yay!12:52
oCean_thanks for the help guys, have a good weekend!12:55
QPrimeand you :)12:58

lolnic_so i would want to "sudo apt-get purge bcmwl-kernel-source && sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source"?13:23
lolnic_do i have to reboot fro the driver to activate?13:28
simba_lolnic_, no idea,13:29
lolnic_okay, may as well try13:29
lolnic_thanks for the help!13:29
edakiriAre bug reports on Lucid Lynx first welcome when it reaches Beta stage, or also before?13:36

yofeledakiri: they are always welcome13:40
Ian_Corneah exams over, running lucid now on my laptop13:40
Ian_Corneclean install, with updated installer, no problems so far13:40
yofelif you want to discuss your issue you're right here, if you need help on filing the bug #ubuntu-bugs is a better place13:40
edakiriI haven't tried it.  I think i will wait until code is 'frozen', shortly before alpha 3 I think that is.13:43
yofeledakiri: what issue do you have anyway?13:44
edakiriThere is 1 i especially wish to test that is in KK, regarding GRUB2 + USB mass storage.13:45
edakiriIf mass storage is attached at time of initial installation, grub2 will perform a long search on it during boot before timing out without finding what it seeks and continuing.13:46
edakiriOther bugs i have found in KK, i have reported already on launchpad.13:46
edakiriand then there is another that i have not looked for on launchpad yet, where LVM parts on the USB are not available early enough in boot.13:50
edakiriI think i reported that one to debian some time ago, though.13:50
edakiriit causes partitions to not be mountable at boot.13:51
* penguin42 had problems with the kubuntu alpha2 lucid not working usefully on kvm, anyone had more look with the gnome version?14:17
* penguin42 downloads to try14:56
penguin42seems to work live, not happy with writing to the virtual disc16:00
blueyedIs somebody running lucid already, with cryptsetup etc?16:29
blueyedI'm thinking about upgrading..16:29
penguin42blueyed: I'm running one partition like that, but not the root16:30
blueyedpenguin42: thanks for the feedback. I'm thinking about removing encryption from root anyway (for performance reasons).16:31
penguin42blueyed: I run full encryption on my work laptop and it's OK - I mean it's got a fast CPU though16:32
blueyedpenguin42: I have this running for quite some time already (Opteron 180), but my impression is that it slows the system down quite some.. and often seeing kcryptd taking up to 10% cpu..16:33
penguin42yeh, it;'s a security trade off16:34

CosmiChaosblueyed, you dont have to if you would have a new intel-core or a via-nono, those have a encryption unit for AES17:03
CosmiChaosalso opencl/cuda got aes-applications to to encrypt files17:04
BluesKajhowdy folks17:16
NoelJBAmaranth, you around this day?  :-)17:47
AmaranthNoelJB: for a bit, yes17:47
NoelJBAmaranth, any idea why raise on rotate might not work (Lucid)?17:48
NoelJBI haven't filed a report on it, yet, since there were all sorts of GL related issues in Lucid previously, but those seem to be squared away now.17:48
AmaranthNoelJB: I don't even know what you mean :P17:49
Amaranthcompiz has about 20,000 options, you'll need to be specific17:49
NoelJBAmaranth, oh?  I thought that might be part of what you work on.17:49
Amaranthi work on all parts of it a little bit17:49
NoelJBDesktop Cube has a raise on rotate option.17:49
Amaranthwhat is it supposed to do and what is it doing now?17:50
Amaranthand did it work in karmic?17:50
NoelJBIt worked in Karmic and previous.17:50
Amaranthnothing has changed in lucid except how compiz starts up and the kde decorator :/17:50
NoelJBit is supposed to give a 3D look when you rotate the desktop cube.  The windows lift off in layers, so that you can see under them from the side.  That's not happening in Lucid.17:51
Amaranththat's not raise on rotate, that's the 3d plugin17:51
NoelJBIt also required that you have at least 3 sides.  Never worked with just two desktops, but does with 3 (in Karmic and earlier).17:52
NoelJB?  Enabling Desktop Cube and Raise on Rotate did it previously.  I'm sitting in Lucid now.  What would you like for me to turn on?17:53
Amaranthinstall compiz-fusion-plugins-extra and turn on the 3d plugin17:53
Amaranthor install the karmic compiz packages and try it then17:53
NoelJBinstalling cfpe as we speak.17:54
Amaranththere have been 8 changes to compiz from karmic to lucid and 2 of them were no change rebuilds17:54
Amaranthso 6 changes, really17:54
Amaranththey changed how compiz starts and they make the kde decorator build with kde 4.4 plus a crash fix for wobbly and a change to the bindings for the terminal17:55
NoelJBbut the rotate cube plugin used to do this.  I can reboot to karmic to check settings.17:55
Amaranthdon't reboot to karmic, install the karmic compiz packages in lucid17:55
Amaranthcompiz has effectively not changed at all from karmic to lucid17:55
NoelJBOK, installed CFPE.  What am I looking for?17:56
Amaranththe 3d plugin17:56
Amaranthif the karmic packages work but the lucid ones don't I'll be shocked17:56
NoelJBI wasn't expecting it to be a break in compiz.  I was expecting that it might be failing to find something, since there were all sorts of GL* related issues in lucid earlier.17:56
Amaranthright, that's what I'm thinking too17:56
Amaranthyou can verify by installing the karmic compiz packages :)17:57
NoelJBYou want me to turn on the 3D windows plugin?  That's the only thing I see that says 3D.17:57
Amaranthyeah17:57
AmaranthI gotta go, please test with the karmic packages in lucid17:58
NoelJBAnd that does it.  Perfect.17:58
NoelJBCheers.17:58
Amaranthoh, alright17:58
NoelJBI'll go back and check my Karmic setup.17:58
Amaranthso the problem is we don't install compiz-fusion-plugins-extra package anymore17:58
Amaranthso compiz silently disabled any plugins you had enabled from that package17:58
* Amaranth heads to the bank17:59
NoelJBAmaranth, thank you!  :-)17:59

chowderinstalled Lucid via debootstrap but I seem to have trouble setting up locales19:00
chowderI tried using dpkg-reconfigure localeconf but I get an error saying it isn't installed19:02
chowderso I tried installing it but apt can't seem to find the package19:02
penguin42indeed, there doesn't seem to be anything called localedef in the repos19:03
chowderwell localedef I have installed19:04
chowderhttp://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m4caae6af <<here's the error I get from dpkg19:05
chowderand from trying to install the missing package19:05
=== andresmujica1 is now known as andresmujica
penguin42chowder: Do you have language-pack-en and language-pack-en-base installed?19:07
onetinsoldierhi all19:07
penguin42debootstrap always needs a few fixes19:07
chowderpenguin42: I'm not sure but I'll check now19:08
chowderwhoa, tried to install it and installs 100000000000 packages19:09
chowderis there a way to only install language-pack-en and not OpenOffice and the 100000 other packages apt seems to want to install19:10
onetinsoldierchowder: hang on. i have a look-see19:11
penguin42chowder: Just try the language-pack-en-base ?19:11
chowderalright19:11
* penguin42 goes to get food19:12
chowderjust installing the base seems to have worked19:13
chowderbut doesn't apt install recommended packages by default?19:13
chowderI can't count the number of times I've gone into a rage when apt installs crap I don't need19:13
onetinsoldierchowder: i looked and 'language-pack-en' does not 'depend on openoffice' openoffice does not need to get installed in order to install language-pack-en. if fact, language-pack-en only has one single depend, which is 'language-pack-en-base'. why you would be getting 10,000 other packages from trying to install, i don't know19:14
chowderI added something extra that I thought I would need19:15
chowderbut don't worry, just installing en-base did the trick19:15
chowderthanks a lot19:15
onetinsoldierchowder: start up 'aptitude'. go through it's options. there's an option to stop having apt/aptitude/apt-get install recommended or suggested packages. you uncheck the 'suggest' or whatever, and then, you will only get what you tell it to install(unless the package has ourtight dependencies, of course they must get installed)19:17
chowderonetinsoldier: I was actually gonna do it manually19:17
onetinsoldierok19:17
chowderi didn't know that I could do it through aptitude19:17
onetinsoldierahh, roger19:17
onetinsoldierto do it manually, i guess you open a file somewhere in /etc/apt?19:18
chowdertouch /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/02no-recommends and in that file add APT::Install-Recommends "false";19:18
onetinsoldierchowder: roger19:18
onetinsoldieri see ya19:18
chowdernow I'm wondering what else I need to do19:24
onetinsoldierchowder: for? when i came in the room, i think i was too late to catch what the original issue was19:25
onetinsoldieri probably won't know the answer, but i'm the curious type :-)19:25
chowderonetinsoldier: well I installed Lucid in a chroot using debootstrap19:25
onetinsoldierok19:25
chowderso I had to do a lot manually19:26
chowderwasn't really that bad, though. I copied my hosts and all other needed files19:26
onetinsoldierahhh, roger. been years since i did an install using chroot, and that was like the only time i've ever done it19:26
chowdernow I just need to add a user19:26
onetinsoldierchowder: ahhh, roger. one sec19:27
onetinsoldierwell, adduser command i reckon19:28
onetinsoldiersomething like... adduser --home /home/onetinsoldier onetinsoldier19:29
chowderyea19:29
onetinsoldierbe a little different perhaps in a chroot tho19:29
chowdernope, worked fine for me19:33
onetinsoldiercool!19:35
chowdermanually editing the group file now19:38
onetinsoldierroger. sounds like you're all good and fine so far :)19:40
chowderpretty much19:40
chowderalthough I'm confused as to what groups my main user should be a member of19:40
onetinsoldierlet me do the 'id' command, and i'll paste in the output19:41
chowderI'm guessing floppy, tape, audio, cdrom, and some administrative group with sudo privileges19:41
chowderkk19:41
onetinsoldieruid=1000(onetinsoldier) gid=1000(onetinsoldier) groups=4(adm),20(dialout),24(cdrom),46(plugdev),104(lpadmin),115(admin),121(sambashare),1000(onetinsoldier)19:41
onetinsoldiergroups --> onetinsoldier adm dialout cdrom plugdev lpadmin admin sambashare19:42
onetinsoldierthat's from the 'groups' command19:43
chowderi wonder if its dangerous adding myself to other groups19:44
onetinsoldierhmmm, i'm not sure either19:44
chowdershouldn't be too big of an issue19:45
onetinsoldieri'm kind of rusty. just started using linux again several days ago after a years hiatus19:45
chowderwent back to windows?19:45
onetinsoldieryeah. i played a a game i like a lot. World War 2 Online: Battleground Europe. there is no linux version. they thought about making it at one time and i was thinking it would be great if they did. but nope. they do make Mac native version though19:46
chowderI think its time I booted into my new install19:48
onetinsoldierroger. good luck!19:48
chowderneed to configure the fstab19:48
onetinsoldier:-)19:49
high-rezI've done a do-release-upgrade from 9.10 - but I"m not sure: is there soemthing more I should do?  It doesn't appear to have replaced half with devicekit?19:51
onetinsoldierhigh-rez: you're upgrading from 9.10 to 10.04?19:52
high-rezone: right.19:53
high-rezI don't have any device kit processes running, but all of the half stuff is still there.19:53
penguin42hal19:53
onetinsoldieri'd say first check you're /etc/apt/sources.list file and make sure it's all on 'lucid'19:53
high-rezs/half/hal19:53
high-rezJust woke up:)19:53
onetinsoldiernp19:54
high-rezone: It's all lucid.19:54
onetinsoldierok. what is your version of 'hal' that's installed?19:55
penguin42high-rez: There seem to still be a few packages that are dependent on hal, libvirt being one19:55
charlie-tca__Hal is not completely gone, it just runs from dbus now19:55
charlie-tca__and, it should not start when the system does, in lucid.19:56
high-rez0.5.14-0ubuntu3 (/var/lib/apt/lists/us.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_lucid_main_binary-i386_Packages) (/var/lib/dpkg/status)19:56
onetinsoldierhigh-rez: roger. same version as mine19:56
high-rezHmm19:57
onetinsoldierhigh-rez: you can always run a command that makes sure all packages are upgraded to the highest version possible --> sudo aptitude full-upgrade19:57
onetinsoldierhigh-rez: safer command to do though is...19:58
onetinsoldierhigh-rez:  sudo aptitude safe-upgrade19:58
high-rezHmm, I'll give full-upgrade a try ;)  What the heck.19:59
onetinsoldierok19:59
onetinsoldierdid it show some packages that were to be upgraded?20:01
high-rezYeah20:01
onetinsoldierroger20:01
high-rezBut I did a aptitude udpate this morning so I knew there was some stuff waiting forme ;)20:01
onetinsoldierafter the full-upgrade, you might just want to do the 'safe-upgrade' from here on out20:02
onetinsoldierhigh-rez: i hear ya20:02
high-rezAs opposed to just doing update/upgrade - it's better to do safe-upgrade ?20:02
onetinsoldierhigh-rez: well, i've started to use aptitude rather than apt-get. the full-upgrade and safe-upgrade are 'aptitude' specific i think20:03
onetinsoldierhigh-rez: with apt-get, i would do... apt-get dist-upgrade(full-upgrade) - or - upgrade(safe-upgrade)... i think that's how it works20:04

onetinsoldierouch!20:19
chowderdon't really know what happened because nothing has been logged to dmesg20:19

onetinsoldierjust wondering what version of Lucid you used20:20
chowdernot sure20:21
onetinsoldierroger20:21
chowderjust did debootstrap --arch=i386 lucid20:21
onetinsoldieryou're sure you got you're fstab right and that / is being mounted ok?20:22
onetinsoldieri think i've seen kernel panic before when / couldn't be mounted correctly20:23
chowderpretty sure20:23
onetinsoldierbut i can't recall for certain20:23
chowdermaybe it has something to do with the filesystem type20:23
chowderits ext420:23
onetinsoldiermaybe20:23
onetinsoldiercould be20:23
penguin42what does the kernel panic say?20:23
chowderpenguin42: I have no idea20:24

onetinsoldierAmaranth: ah, roger. thanks20:27
chowderI cd'd to /var/log/ and checked out dmesg but its blank20:27
chowderI think its giving me the dmesg output from my current Ubuntu install and not Lucid20:28

chowderonetinsoldier: its 2.6.32-1120:31
onetinsoldierchowder: roger. that's as recent as it comes in lucid20:31
chowderit seems that commands like dmesg and uname give me the output that pertains to my main install and not to Lucid20:32
chowderI probably have to bind mount something20:32
penguin42chowder: chroot's are always a bit special - you can't normally boot them20:32
chowderpenguin42: I figured that if I added the appropriate entry in my menu.lst it would work just fine20:33
penguin42chowder: How did you specify the root filesystem?20:33
chowderI have the kernel installed and everything properly configured, as far as I know20:33
chowderin the fstab or in the menu.lst?20:33
penguin42both20:34

chowderignore the "||"20:36
chowderjust my way of not flooding the channel20:36
penguin42yeh ok, so how are you specifying the directory20:36
chowderthe root directory? I just followed used the fstab for my main install as a template and replaced the UUID20:37
chowderdid pretty much the same with menu.lst except that I added the proper kernel and initrd20:37
penguin42oh ok, so you installed into a chroot that was actually another device20:38
DanaGhmm, is the chroot a separate partition?20:38
DanaGI've done that before: chroot to a secondary partition.20:38
DanaG... that's also directly bootable.20:38
chowderyes, the chroot is another partition20:38
penguin42ah, that makes more sense20:39
chowderthat's why I was trying to boot it ;)20:39
_Groo_hi/2 all20:42
onetinsoldierhello20:42
_Groo_any kernel core dev could tell me if lucid will have backported radeon kms drivers from .33?20:43
chowderDanaG: none of my partitions are marked as bootable yet I'm able to boot into Jaunty without a problem.20:44
chowdermaybe I should try marking my Lucid partition as bootable20:44
onetinsoldierchowder: i don't think you need to20:45
onetinsoldierchowder: i think that's only needed for like, old versions of lilo20:46
penguin42_Groo_: I seem to be getting mode setting on lucid's current kernel on my radeon rv71020:47
DanaGhmm, try booting without "quiet splash"20:47
_Groo_penguin42: you do, but try to run googleearth for ex... it will crash because compressed textures were only enabled in .3320:47
chowderI'll give it a shot20:47
_Groo_besides that lack of features it runs flawlessly, im using radeon kms since the first git days almost 2 years ago20:48
DanaGweird... gnome sleep hotkey doesn't work if a menu is open.20:48
penguin42_Groo_: Ah, annoying - my problem at the moment is that my hand built 2.6.33 is failing to boot with the new lucid boot process20:48
_Groo_but since lucid its a LTS it might be nice to think in backporting most of radeon parts in .3320:48
_Groo_penguin42: did you tried the ubuntu daily kernel builds?20:49
penguin42_Groo_: google earth is running good here; I'm running xorg-edgers libraries though, not the standard set20:49
_Groo_penguin42: same...20:49
penguin42_Groo_: No, not tried the daily kernel builds20:49
_Groo_what card?20:49
penguin42_Groo_: RV710, 435020:49

DanaGdaily kernel builds? where?20:50
penguin42_Groo_: Ah OK20:50
DanaGAre they 2.6.33-based?20:50
_Groo_DanaG: the mainline kernels20:50
DanaGI need the samsung-laptop driver.20:50
DanaGMainline builds don't have even the "staging" menu ITSELF enabled.20:50
_Groo_DanaG: the mainline kernel builds are from git, they usually also branch the oficial releases20:50
penguin42_Groo_: Thing is, my kernels were working until ~ 2 weeks ago when plymouth went in, it just hangs now and it's rather difficult to tell why20:51
chowderbrb, booting into Lucid20:51
onetinsoldiergood luck!20:51
_Groo_penguin42: because you are prob missing the r600/700 firmare.. you need to add it manually, talk about it in #radeon20:51
penguin42_Groo_: Nope, done that20:51
_Groo_penguin42: hmmmmm20:51
_Groo_penguin42: disable plymouth then20:52

DanaGthat site IS THE EXPLOIT!20:56
penguin42DanaG: What's the exploit?20:57
DanaGtry wgetting the page and renaming it to txt... and you'll see all sorts of really nasty stuff in there.  Even the text itself is nasty.  Very nasty.20:57
tsimpsondon't click on the link20:58
DanaGMake damn sure you don't open it in a browser.20:58

_Groo_tsimpson: can you pastebin the dmesg20:59
_Groo_penguin42: ah.. its actually almost the same code :)20:59
penguin42_Groo_: Nod, I suspect you're right that it may be the 2.6.32 kernel, it did feel stabler before - but there again since I'm running edgers anything might have changed in between21:00
_Groo_penguin42: its the kernel, airlied confirmed that the compressed textures didnt make it in .2221:00
penguin42_Groo_: I'll put the daily in - at least I should be able to try and track down what the config diff is21:03
DanaGnow... how do you get an exploit site like that taken down?21:03
penguin42DanaG: ISP or registrar?21:04
penguin42DanaG: And doesn't google have a list of bad sites?21:04
DanaGRegistrar:       Spot Domain LLC21:04

* _Groo_ is uploading koffice 2.1.1 to its ppa for testing purposes21:05
DanaGthe given address also seems bogus.  Leads to some health clinic.  125 Rampart Way Suite 300 Denver CO 8023021:05
penguin42_Groo_: Yeh, I was in there when I first got it going - I'm fairly sure my problem is an ubuntuism boot process issue21:05
DanaGguawd, I wish I could transmit matter through the internet.21:05
penguin42DanaG: I just find I can never get the sledge hammer into the rj4521:06
penguin42DanaG: The registrar (domainsite) does seem to be in denver based on the traceroute21:07
penguin42DanaG: Traceroute seems to suggest the ISP for the site is ai.net21:08

_Groo_crimsun: i was against not using ppa, if you are using experimental kernels you should know what you doind, why not make thing easier for who knows what to do... but its fine this way too21:19
crimsun_Groo_: given the amount of rope-hanging^Wbreakage that I've seen from people randomly adding PPAs, I think the kernel team made the right decision.21:20
penguin42too many people don't know how to dig themselves out from the mess they can cause21:20
_Groo_crimsun: agreed... but i dont care a lot for end users lol..21:21
crimsunwhich is an absolutely awful perspective to have, IMNSHO21:21
_Groo_crimsun: ehehehe ;)21:21
penguin42crimsun: Well I guess not everyone has to care21:22
_Groo_crimsun: BOFH is my god :)21:22
crimsunpenguin42: hmm, "unusual"? I don't think so.21:22
crimsunpenguin42: is there more context for that use case(s)?21:22
DanaGcrimsun: do you know why the mainline builds have the staging dir entirely disabled?21:23
penguin42crimsun: I've got a fairly minimal config of my 2.6.33 rc3 that worked upto about 3 weeks ago prior to plymouth, and with the same kernel hangs I think in mountall21:23
_Groo_crimsun: dont get me wrong, i help, debug and im usually very open to helping, but im not very into, lets hold hands and show you a new world for windows/mac users... most arent worth the effort21:23
crimsunDanaG: Andy once said it was simple oversight; might try asking on kernel-team@21:23
_Groo_and after almost 2 decades of IT i kinda know when/where to invest21:23
DanaGSpecifically, I'd need samsung-laptop and r8192se21:23
penguin42htf did you survive 2 decades in IT21:23
_Groo_penguin42: three rules of IT21:24
crimsunpenguin42: do you have a graphics chipset capable of KMS?21:24
_Groo_penguin42: know who to blame21:24
_Groo_penguin42: know when to run21:24
_Groo_penguin42: know when to hide21:24
_Groo_crimsun: groo raises hand21:25
crimsun_Groo_: unfortunately it's not that simple for me given I'm in charge of an entire subsystem (audio)21:25
penguin42crimsun: Yes, and it works well with both the 2.6.32 lucid current and with that same 2.6.33rc3 of my own build prior to the boot changes ~3 weeks ago21:25
_Groo_crimsun: i know, im the one doing the kde multimedia pulse audio packages for kubuntu (testing for now)21:25
crimsun_Groo_: and since I'm a community member (not employed by Canonical), it's even more important not to alienate people21:25
penguin42crimson - the man that goes beep21:25
_Groo_crimsun: crimsun IM JOKING!!!!21:25
* _Groo_ deactivates the sarcasm flag21:26
crimsunpenguin42: are you using cryptsetup on said machine(s)/21:26
crimsunpenguin42: if so, try purging plymouth21:27
penguin42crimsun: I have a crypted partition, it's not root and it's not mounted by default (and not in fstab)21:27
crimsunah, yeah, my workaround really only applies for plymouth+enciphered lvm l21:28
crimsunlvm /21:28
DanaGhmm, try radeon.modeset=0?21:28
penguin42crimsun: I am using lvm, but as I say it works with the ubuntu builds so it's something in my config it doesn't like - I've built most stuff in21:28
crimsunah21:29
crimsundo you use an initramfs?21:29
crimsun(CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD=y)21:29
penguin42crimsun: I didn't, but I had to to get 2.6.33 to boot at all on lucid, that worked on initial lucids but then broke ~3 weeks ago21:29
voidmagei'm having trouble running games in wine on lucid, getting err:d3d_caps:WineD3D_CreateFakeGLContext Can't find a suitable iPixelFormat.21:31
voidmageinstalled the nvidia drivers using the instructions in the release notes (http://ubuntu.com/testing/lucid/alpha2)21:31
voidmagenative games work fine, tested with savage 2 and ut200421:32
chowderBegin mounting root file system... ...21:33
Sarvatti think ia32-libs needs an update to fix that21:33
penguin42the daily 2.6.33 seems OK21:34
onetinsoldierchowder: it's working?21:34
chowder/init: line 219 syntax error: 0x5fc167c6-3fb7-4ac8-91d4-0ceaf47dddf21:34
onetinsoldieroh21:34
chowderonetinsoldier: if by working you mean "working its way toward a kernel panic" then yes21:34
onetinsoldierlol. roger chowder. sorry to hear that21:35
chowdernext line...21:35
chowderKernel Panic - not syncing: attempted to kill init!21:35
penguin42chowder: Ah, your uuid is duff21:35
chowderPid: 1, comm: init not tainted 2.6.32-11-generic #15 Ubuntu21:35
chowderpenguin42: duff?21:36
penguin42chowder: I'd say you need to take the 0x off21:36
voidmageSarvatt: well that's no good, is there a workaround?21:36
onetinsoldieri would say that.. duff = borked21:37
penguin42pity those kernels aren't built with perf - perf is fun21:37
chowderpenguin42: only question is where is it reading that from21:37
simba_xserver-xorg-input-wacom now installs without any errors, but i still cant get the stylus to work. :/21:37
Sarvattnot that I know of but it is being looked into so hopefully wont be too much longer21:37
penguin42chowder: One of your fstab or your grub thingy21:37
Sarvattdo you have a serial tablet simba_? because it doesn't work with serial tablets yet21:38
chowderbrb21:38
simba_Sarvatt, no idea, it is a x200 tablet. Probably is serial then.21:38
Sarvattyeah :(21:39
Sarvattneeds an xserver patch thats not upstream yet, that does have a serial interface21:39
simba_Sarvatt, thanx, atleast i can stop searching where the hickup is now21:39
DanaGodd thing that happens with a samsung netbook I have: the multitouch touchpad... claims not to be able to do multifinger detection.21:40
voidmageSarvatt: if there isn't an easy workaround, is there package i can downgrade?21:40
Sarvattvoidimage: no unfortunately not outside of going back to karmic, the packages from nvidia.com wont work on lucid anymore at the moment either. DanaG: *most* touchpads dont do multitouch but you can fake multitouch support with options, the windows drivers do that21:41
voidmageSarvatt: of course as i say that, this one worked for me21:42
voidmage  LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib32/nvidia-current/libGL.so wine Wow.exe21:42
DanaGThis one DOES do multitouch in Windows.21:42
DanaGhandy hint in Windows: press alt-shift-i in mouse control panel.21:42
Sarvattyeah but that doesnt say anything21:42
CosmiChaosis there a compiz ppa out for lucid?21:42
Sarvattbecause you can use emulated multitouch and the windows drivers do do that, if it really supported multitouch the synaptics driver on linux would enable that and disable vertical scroll21:43
Sarvatti dont remember the synclient commands to do it off the top of my head though21:43
DanaGThe problem is, it's misreporting capabilities in Linux.21:44
DanaGIt filters two fingers properly (most of the time), but doesn't offer finger>1 values.21:44
DanaGIn Windows, the debug thing does clearly show multiple fingers.21:44
simba_If your tuchpad is multituch the pointer will fly all over the place before it is setup if you acidently get two fingers on it....very annoying21:45
DanaGWeirder thing happens to me:21:46
DanaGIf I put two fingers on the pad, it sometime spazzes out, showing the cursor flickering between the two contact points.21:47
simba_DanaG, you have something like a bamboo where the surface is mapped to the screen?21:48
DanaGNope.21:48
simba_DanaG, almost sonded like it21:48
DanaGBut picture wiggling your finger back and forth across the touchpad.... and then speed it up so it takes only 1 frame to go across.21:48
Sarvattadjust the EmulateTwoFingerMinZ value21:51
DanaGThat's not the point!21:51
Sarvattit would show >1 finger if it actually supported it21:51
DanaGI use emulation on one laptop that doesn't offer multi-finger...21:51
DanaGbut I want real multi-finger support on the netbook with the touchpad that DOES offer it.21:52
Sarvattbecause windows emulates it and doesn't tell you the real data you think it does support it?21:52
* DanaG gives up trying to convince you that it is real multifinger.21:53
DanaGSynaptics does make me angry sometimes... they started locking out even the basic multi-finger detection that has existed for years, if the OEM doesn't pay for full multi-finger.21:55
DanaGI have an old Athlon XP-M laptop that can at least do basic multi-finger... yet my Core 2 Duo laptop can't.21:55
DanaGwhen'll ubuntu official repos have firefox 3.6?21:59
DanaGI can't use apport to report bugs on the ubuntu-mozilla-dailies.21:59
crimsunDanaG: it's in source NEW22:04
DanaGcool.22:04
crimsunit needs to be accepted by an archive admin, then it will build, and then it will need to be accepted from binary NEW, and then it will be published.22:05
DanaGI wanna' report a bug that firefox segfaults on http://pacificservice.org -- beware if you click that... it'll segfault.  =þ22:05
htrejhhello22:05
DanaGAT least, it does for me.22:05
htrejhi installed nvidia-glx on lucid, but i see theres no xorg.cong anymore, is that normal? what should i do to use the driver now?22:05
htrejhcan someone help me?22:16

dupondjeany serious issues in Alpha 2? or kinda safe to upgrade ?22:45
chowderdupondje: I wouldn't22:46
chowderits an Alpha for a reason22:46
chowderjust wait until April22:46
dupondjeApril is SO long ;)22:46
onetinsoldierchowder: bummer22:47
BUGabundoboas22:48
chowderthis is driving me nuts22:57
dupondjemmm, upgrade started, 1200 packages to update22:57
dupondjerofl :)22:57
aranddupondje: there's always the possibility to run a virtual machine, or to run it completely off a >4GB usb stick, if you just want to check out some sweetness (and unstable-sourness I guess).22:58
dupondjeI know :) but ran Karmic since Alpha 2 also22:58
dupondjeI know the feeling :)22:58
penguin42dupondje: Lucid seems good for me, I did try a Kubuntu Lucid Alpha 2 in a KVM guest and it really wasn't happy23:01
arandYea, I was on jaunty from real early, but still haven't gotten to KK, heh. I love normal-installing to usbs though, since it runs very much like normal, just that there's no worries, not touching the disk at all.23:01
chowderonetinsoldier: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8713459 <<my thread23:02
onetinsoldierchowder: roger23:02
onetinsoldiergoing there now23:02
onetinsoldierchowder: ok, i read it. hope someone can help you. i bet someone will come along that knows what the problem might be23:08
chowderI hope so23:08
onetinsoldiererr, i should say... has a good idea of what the prob might be23:09
chowderI hope a dev pops in and looks at the post23:10
chowdercause at this point it seems that only a dev can help23:11
onetinsoldierhmmm, maybe23:12
chowderaverage users have no idea that a kernel panic even exists23:13
chowderand most are asking how to get their printer working, lol23:13
onetinsoldierchowder: haha.. i had a thought23:13
onetinsoldierchowder: you know, if you compile you own custom kernel you have just all kinds of whizbang debugging options that you can enable23:14
onetinsoldier:D23:14
chowdertrue but it seems like an issue that is of my own creation23:15
chowderif it was a kernel issue then I'd have debugging on23:15
onetinsoldieryeah. that is likely23:15
chowderI'm just having trouble pinpointing what I did wrong23:15
chowder:/23:15
onetinsoldierit is likely a debootstrap issue or something23:15
chowderdoubt it23:16
chowderthe error message said that init did something wrong23:16
chowder/init: line 219: snytax error23:16
chowderthen I get the kernel panic23:16
onetinsoldieri don't know23:17
penguin42it's a problem in the initramfs  - it doesn't like that uuid for some reason; did you find where that 0x came from?23:17
chowderpenguin42: I didn't put that 0x anywhere23:17
chowderlooked in the fstab and in the menu.lst23:17
chowderand the 0x is not part of the UUID23:17
penguin42interesting - it's not a kernel bug, it looks more like the scripts that get built into the initrd, the kernel panic is just because no one has given it a root filesystem23:18
onetinsoldierwhat about specifying the actual device and node old style, instead of UUID numbers?23:18
chowderI could try that23:18
chowder/dev/sda1: UUID="1249c9fe-420d-42fa-af59-08e203ff0cac" TYPE="ext3"23:19
chowder/dev/sda2: UUID="bcb5d1d8-3589-42a1-bca2-16186d38b561" TYPE="ext3" SEC_TYPE="ext2"23:19
chowder/dev/sda3: TYPE="swap" UUID="2a47f445-acca-4362-8a8b-969533f75d30"23:19
chowder/dev/sda4: UUID="5fc167c6-3fb7-4ac8-91d4-0ceaf047dddf" TYPE="ext4"23:19
chowder/dev/sdb1: UUID="5fd22423-cfb7-42f2-8aee-d221c3bde459" TYPE="ext3"23:19
chowderthat's the output of blkid23:19
chowderthe 0x gets added somewhere along the line23:19
penguin42I wouldn't be surprised if you're going to need to regenerate the initramfs somewhere along the line23:19
chowderI built my own initramfs when I was using arch linux23:20
penguin42chowder: How did you build it during your debootstrap?23:21
chowderpenguin42: I didn't build it. I just installed the Linux kernel using apt23:21
chowderThe initrd I'm using is initrd.img-2.6.32-11-generic23:22
chowderI'm guessing that upon installing the Linux kernel it was done automatically23:23
chowderunless I'm wrong...23:23
BUGabundoevening friends23:23
chowderhello23:23
BUGabundoanyone feel comfortable to clear a "feature" for me23:23
BUGabundokernel/ext4 related23:23
BUGabundoI created a new folder23:23
BUGabundosymlinked all files and subfolders from pidgin .purple folder23:24
BUGabundoand opened it app23:24
penguin42chowder: I bet it's that which went wrong, whatever figured out the root filesystem device to put in the initrd went wrong when trying to do it in the chroot23:24
penguin42BUGabundo: Go on23:24
BUGabundowhat happened was that the conf files that were in the route of the dir, were replaced from symlinks to real files23:24
onetinsoldierpenguin42: i think you said it23:25
BUGabundothat was unskepected23:25
chowderpenguin42: I have a feeling that you've hit the nail on the head23:25
onetinsoldierya23:25
chowderonly issue is how do I rectify this problem23:25
penguin42BUGabundo: I don't think a kernel would do that23:26
BUGabundopenguin42: kernel as in , FS code in kernel23:26
penguin42BUGabundo: No, I think that's purely a userspace issue23:26
penguin42BUGabundo: Let me get this straight; you created a directory (let's call it d) then you put files that were normally in .purple into 'd' and then created symlinks from .purple/thing into d/thing ?23:27
BUGabundopidgin trunking the file (symlink) and creating a new one?23:27
BUGabundopenguin42: correct23:27
penguin42BUGabundo: And it was all fine until you ran pidgin?23:27
BUGabundoof course23:28
BUGabundonothing messing with the file23:28
BUGabundoforgot to say, I run pidgin set to use the new dir (call it d)23:28
BUGabundoand not it usual .puple23:29
penguin42BUGabundo: I'd bet that pidgin decided to update the files, to do that it wrote a new file and in the process replaced the symlinks by the new file23:29
BUGabundoyes, I think that too23:30
BUGabundobut as I said, it was an unxpected behaviour23:30
penguin42BUGabundo: Applications approaches to dot files is rarely predictable23:30
BUGabundosince they were symlinks, I expected the app (and any app) to follow it23:31
penguin42BUGabundo: When opening for read/write that's true - things get a bit more random if they do things like create a new file and rename them over the top23:31
BUGabundoand since I recall the long discussion on how ext4 handled fs truncate differently23:31
penguin42BUGabundo: Nah the whole truncate thing is a performance tweak and it only changes behaviour as you see it if your machine crashes I think23:32
BUGabundook23:33
BUGabundoshould I file a bug in pidgin?23:33
BUGabundoor you feel it's a _feature_ ?23:33
penguin42The behaviour inside an apps config directory is it's own23:34
penguin42it's not defined what it should do - I'd say if you symlink'd the whole of .purple it would probably work23:35
penguin42BUGabundo: Try this; touch a; ln -s a b; ls -l b; touch c; mv c b; ls -l b23:41
BUGabundolrwxrwxrwx 1 bugabundo bugabundo 1 2010-01-23 23:42 b -> a23:42
BUGabundo-rw-r--r-- 1 bugabundo bugabundo 0 2010-01-23 23:42 b23:42
penguin42right23:42
penguin42BUGabundo: And I suspect pidgin did a similar sequence when it updated its config files23:42
BUGabundoI guess so too23:43
penguin42it's the normal thing to do, and a perfectly reasonable behaviour23:43
Volkodav_will TB-3,0 be in lynx23:43
Volkodav_?23:43
BUGabundonot sure23:44
BUGabundoI think it will23:44
Volkodav_not yet anyway23:45
BUGabundoyes23:47
BUGabundoonly after next week23:47
BUGabundofirst is FF23:47
Volkodav_64 bit too ?23:48
Volkodav_you mean with alpha 3 release ?23:49
Volkodav_cuz daily builds are a pain23:49
