| mazda01 | crimsun, well, how can unmonopolize the sound card. im telling you, it's that "system testing" within the system, admin menu | 00:03 |
|---|---|---|
| mazda01 | anyone know why the system testing menu item within system, admin, takes over my sound card and then changes the sound preferences out put to dummy output? there isn't even a hardware device within the sound hardware tab? | 00:14 |

| Spreadsheet | Hi | 00:41 |
| Spreadsheet | I can switch viewports using ctrl-alt-arrow, but I can't close windows using the X | 00:42 |
| Spreadsheet | Or click on windows | 00:42 |
| Spreadsheet | I can type into them | 00:42 |
| Spreadsheet | I killed some processes, gcalctool and firefox that I had open | 00:43 |
| Spreadsheet | I could temporarily move the windows, but then it "froze" again | 00:43 |
| Spreadsheet | Any help? | 00:45 |
| onetinsoldier | wow. hmmm, i don't know right offhand | 00:47 |
| Spreadsheet | Has anyone else experienced this? | 00:47 |
| Spreadsheet | I think this is really weird. I almost never get crashes or freezes | 00:47 |
| Spreadsheet | I can also start applications using Alt-f2 | 00:48 |
| onetinsoldier | this is in just regular, plain-jane, lucid? | 00:48 |
| Spreadsheet | Yeah | 00:48 |
| Spreadsheet | GNOME, haven't done much modifications to it | 00:48 |
| onetinsoldier | did you just upgrade to lucid just now? or? | 00:48 |
| Spreadsheet | Keys work (I can make a new tab in a terminal) | 00:48 |
| onetinsoldier | did you install lucid fresh? | 00:49 |
| Spreadsheet | Fresh install | 00:49 |
| onetinsoldier | roger | 00:49 |
| onetinsoldier | using the Alpha2 CD? or a daily-build? | 00:49 |
| Spreadsheet | Also, I tried killing another application, leafpad, thinking it would give me some time to move windows, but it didn't | 00:49 |
| Spreadsheet | hmm | 00:49 |
| Spreadsheet | How do I find out? | 00:49 |
| Spreadsheet | I think I am using alpha 1 | 00:49 |
| onetinsoldier | i installed using the Alpha2 CD just a couple of hours after it was released, which was like, about a week ago | 00:50 |
| Spreadsheet | I remember you can use a keyboard key to "grab" a window and move it | 00:50 |
| Spreadsheet | What is that, so I can try it? | 00:50 |
| onetinsoldier | i haven't had many problems myself | 00:50 |
| Spreadsheet | also, I can't click the menus or taskbar | 00:51 |
| onetinsoldier | i downloaded it from Softpedia | 00:51 |
| onetinsoldier | i think. maybe not. that was where i saw the news that Alpha2 had just come out | 00:51 |
| onetinsoldier | Spreadsheet: the 'alt' key? | 00:52 |
| onetinsoldier | to grab a window? | 00:52 |
| Spreadsheet | Nope, can't grab it | 00:52 |
| onetinsoldier | roger | 00:52 |
| Spreadsheet | How do I use apport? | 00:52 |
| Spreadsheet | Do I just run apport-something from the terminal? Will it automatically file a bug? | 00:53 |
| onetinsoldier | don't know. i've never used. i think it comes up automatically if it detects a crash though | 00:53 |
| onetinsoldier | an appcrash | 00:53 |
| onetinsoldier | try 'man apport' | 00:53 |
| onetinsoldier | or 'apropos apport' | 00:54 |
| Spreadsheet | apport isn't a single command | 00:54 |
| onetinsoldier | ahh, roger | 00:54 |
| onetinsoldier | i did --> apropos apport | 00:54 |
| onetinsoldier | and i'd say... try the 'ubuntu-bug' command | 00:55 |
| Spreadsheet | ok | 00:55 |
| onetinsoldier | however. it'd be interesting to solve it. but i'm not sure what's wrong. are you all upgraded to the lastest? | 00:55 |
| Spreadsheet | I can't specify a package | 00:55 |
| onetinsoldier | are you sure you are fully upgraded? | 00:56 |
| Spreadsheet | I'm not upgraded, I don't like upgrades | 00:56 |
| onetinsoldier | if you installed the Alpha1, you should definitely upgrade to the latest packages that are available | 00:56 |
| onetinsoldier | the latest Lucid | 00:57 |
| Spreadsheet | Then I will need to restart | 00:57 |
| onetinsoldier | yes. after updating to the latest, you'd probably need to restart | 00:58 |
| Spreadsheet | I mean to get it working | 00:58 |
| Spreadsheet | Being able to move windows around | 00:58 |
| onetinsoldier | oh | 00:58 |
| onetinsoldier | i see | 00:58 |
| Spreadsheet | I have a screen session, so I will stay her | 00:58 |

| un214 | anybody know how to really turn off KMS? | 04:40 |
| bjsnider | no one wants to turn off kms | 04:52 |
| un214 | Look I'm serious I want KMS gone | 04:59 |
| un214 | trying to blacklist fbcon.ko didn't work | 04:59 |
| RAOF | You'd be after modeset=0. | 04:59 |
| un214 | so add modeset=0 to /boot/grub/menu.lst? | 04:59 |
| RAOF | It depends on the actual driver; you'd be after $DRIVERNAME.modeset=0 (so i915.modeset=0 or nouveau.modeset=0, etc) | 05:00 |
| RAOF | Note that this won't actually work for nouveau soon; the UMS code has been removed from the nouveau driver. | 05:00 |
| RAOF | And the same will happen soon to the Intel driver. | 05:01 |
| un214 | unfortunately KMS is incompatible w/ my hardware | 05:01 |
| RAOF | In what way “incompatible”? | 05:01 |
| un214 | the alignment is wrong | 05:01 |
| un214 | and my hardware does a better job of scaling text mode than the KMS driver does anyway | 05:02 |
| RAOF | Well, the kms code can probably be set to use the GPU scaling too. | 05:03 |
| un214 | a KMS console cuts off the right 3 characters so I have a usable 77/25 | 05:03 |
| RAOF | Is this an LCD or CRT monitor? | 05:03 |
| un214 | LCD | 05:03 |
| RAOF | So, firstly you should file a bug; the ability to turn off KMS will be going away in the near future. | 05:04 |
| un214 | I will compile my own kernel if I have to | 05:05 |
| RAOF | You won't be able to; the X drivers will just not be able to work without KMS. | 05:05 |
| RAOF | As I say - the nouveau driver already doesn't work without KMS. It doesn't have any modesetting code. | 05:05 |
| un214 | look the only driver that actually works on this hardware is the VESA driver anyway | 05:06 |
| RAOF | Moar bugs! | 05:06 |
| RAOF | What hardware is it? | 05:06 |
| un214 | weird old nvidia | 05:06 |
| RAOF | Sweet. | 05:06 |
| RAOF | So, you don't have KMS enabled anyway. | 05:06 |
| un214 | oh yes I do | 05:06 |
| RAOF | You've installed the nouveau driver? | 05:07 |
| un214 | it scans as if it were a supported driver and doesn't quite work | 05:07 |
| un214 | no | 05:07 |
| RAOF | Then you don't have KMS. | 05:07 |
| un214 | I show a driver "nvidia" loaded | 05:07 |
| bjsnider | that's the bob | 05:07 |
| RAOF | The binary nvidia driver doesn't do KMS. | 05:07 |
| bjsnider | blob | 05:07 |
| un214 | that's worse then | 05:07 |
| bjsnider | so actually the blob is causing your problems | 05:07 |
| bjsnider | which blob is it? | 05:08 |
| un214 | not sure | 05:08 |
| un214 | know what the command is to purge all nvidia blobs? | 05:09 |
| bjsnider | try checking jockey | 05:09 |
| un214 | you see all I saw is somethign was switching to graphics mode rather than text mode with the newest kernel and it came out wrong. Somebody else told me kms was doing it. | 05:09 |
| bjsnider | if you're using one of the two blobs for old hardware you can expect numerous showstoppers | 05:10 |
| bjsnider | old graphics hardware should probably switch to vesa, or nv or nouveau | 05:10 |
| bjsnider | you can change this in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file | 05:11 |
| un214 | /etc/X11/xorg.conf nonexistant | 05:11 |
| RAOF | bjsnider: I don't think what you're suggesting will help; it sounds like they're already using VESA, and their VTs are broken anyway. | 05:11 |
| RAOF | un214: Have your VTs worked with previous versions of Ubuntu? | 05:12 |
| un214 | just fine | 05:12 |
| un214 | I can boot the karmic kernel (still on the disk) and they work again | 05:12 |
| RAOF | And if you disable splash? | 05:12 |
| RAOF | (ie: remove “splash” from the kernel command line) | 05:13 |
| bjsnider | RAOF, i thought he said he had hte nvidia blob loaded | 05:13 |
| un214 | It was loaded | 05:13 |
| un214 | well let's see what unloading it does | 05:13 |
| RAOF | bjsnider: But the nvidia blob won't do anything to the VTs. At least, before X starts. | 05:14 |
| RAOF | Well... the nvidia blob *shouldn't* do anything to the VTs before X starts :) | 05:15 |
| bjsnider | i thought he was having real problems | 05:16 |
| RAOF | VTs are pretty useful. | 05:17 |
| bjsnider | are they now | 05:17 |
| bjsnider | they're useful if your system is completely borked | 05:21 |
| un214 | unloaded & purged nvidia driver | 05:23 |
| un214 | problem still here | 05:23 |
| bjsnider | is your screen resolution normal outside of the vt? | 05:23 |
| un214 | Screen resolution correct through early boot sequence | 05:24 |
| un214 | goes hayware just before kjournald starting | 05:24 |
| un214 | I'm curious, let's see what rinit=/bin/sh does | 05:26 |
| Nafai | Has the bug regarding the nvidia drivers mentioned in the Alpha 2 release notes been fixed? | 05:31 |
| un214 | ok so I don't know how to pass kernel parameters in grub | 05:35 |
| un214 | I noticed this line: Console: switching to colour frame buffer device 80x30 | 05:35 |
| un214 | I patched into /boot/initramfs.img to determine what step is causing it | 06:14 |
| un214 | load udev -- boom | 06:14 |
| un214 | it looks very much like the fbcon driver is the faulting driver here | 06:15 |
| un214 | Finally got it fixed. Anybody want to take a guess as to what worked? | 06:27 |
| un214 | mv fbcon.ko fbcon.ko.disabled && update-initramfs -c && shutdown -r now and my console works again | 06:28 |
| onetinsoldier | un214: congrats! nice work | 06:48 |

| afd_ | hi guys! Is there a guide on how to make a broadcom wireless guide working on Lynx? | 13:05 |
| yofel | afd_: "Is there a guide on how to make a broadcom wireless guide working" huh? do you mean "broadcom wireless card"? | 13:21 |
| afd_ | yofel: yes | 13:22 |
| yofel | could be, I don't know one, what card do you have? | 13:22 |
| afd_ | looking for a guide on making my wireless broadcom card working on my laptop. I'm using Lucid Lynx updated to latest | 13:22 |
| afd_ | BCM4312 | 13:23 |
| afd_ | I'm reading this at the moment, trying to install the STA drivers : http://www.broadcom.com/docs/linux_sta/README.txt | 13:23 |
| yofel | that card should be covered by the 'bcmwl-kernel-source' package | 13:24 |
| afd_ | I have it installed... what GUI can I use to set the network? | 13:24 |
| yofel | well, the network manager applet should show the networks, do you have wireless enabled? Is the kernel module loaded? | 13:26 |
| afd_ | actually, looking in jockey-gtk, I have installed Broadcom STA too. I guess I'm looking for a way to configure the network | 13:26 |
| afd_ | yofel: I don't think I have the applet installed, what is its name? This is a Kubuntu install with Gnome on it | 13:27 |
| afd_ | maybe I didn't install all the gnome packages | 13:27 |
| afd_ | network-admin doesn't have wifi related stuff | 13:28 |
| yofel | oh, kde, is 'knetworkmanager' running? | 13:28 |
| afd_ | ah, I need network-manager-gnome | 13:29 |
| yofel | if you use kde, use knetworkmanager, for gnome nm-applet would be better, yes | 13:29 |
| afd_ | with nm-applet I can see the networks | 13:30 |
| Volkodav | is FF 3,6 and TB-3,0 added to the repos yet ? | 13:30 |
| afd_ | I'll disconnect the cable, to see if it works | 13:30 |

| BluesKaj | kde 4.4 is broken to some degree, i'm afraid | 16:06 |
| onetinsoldier | i'm not totally surprised. isn't kde-4.4 still a beta? | 16:08 |
| onetinsoldier | if so, you've got a beta kde running in a beta version of ubuntu ;-) | 16:09 |
| yofel | onetinsoldier: kde is rc2 actually, but they broke a few things since rc1 it seems | 16:11 |
| yofel | BluesKaj: they don't die here... | 16:12 |
| BluesKaj | yofel, i keep getting "the process for the file ptotocol died unexpectedly" | 16:13 |
| BluesKaj | err protocol | 16:13 |
| yofel | wait, I know that line... | 16:15 |
| BluesKaj | yofel, I made a small bash script and had to cp it to the /etc/init.d file | 16:15 |
| yofel | I don't remember from where though -.- | 16:15 |
| onetinsoldier | yofel: sorry.. had to go afk a bit there. but i hear ya | 16:16 |
| BluesKaj | /etc/init.d for example dies | 16:17 |
| BluesKaj | interesting tho, nautilus opens the file using: gksudo nautilus /etc/init.d/ in the command box | 16:22 |

| charlie-tca | I would think at some point, hiring more developers/workers without a profit becomes a bad business practice | 18:38 |
| simba_ | lol...engadget went down during the coverage op ipadrelease | 18:46 |

| sebsebseb | Hi | 19:04 |
| simba_ | screen-x, was 112000 viewers on ustream earlyer, now only 90000. Hope there will be an ebook store like that for ubuntu soon. | 19:06 |
| screen-x | simba_: I dont use ebooks yet, but there must be a good reader for ubuntu already, and some stores that sell books in epub format? | 19:07 |
| simba_ | screen-x, there are many formats, some has epub, but something that is gluing it all together is missing. | 19:09 |
| Pici | Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for non Lucid chat. There are already a lot of people there discussing the ipad | 19:09 |
| screen-x | Pici: sorry... | 19:09 |

| lukehasnoname | I'm looking to request a package be updated in Lucid | 19:11 |
| lukehasnoname | It's in Main, I'm wondering who I'd discuss this with or where to file a request | 19:12 |
| lukehasnoname | How often does the Lucid snapshot sync with Debian testing, until DIF? | 19:19 |
| Pici | lukehasnoname: Yes. | 19:19 |
| lukehasnoname | Pici: At what intervals? There is a package in Debian testing at version Y, while Lucid's (according to packages.ubuntu.com) has been at version X for a week | 19:21 |
| Pici | lukehasnoname: Which package? | 19:21 |
| lukehasnoname | virt-manager | 19:22 |
| lukehasnoname | it is in main, is that a reason? | 19:22 |
| Pici | lukehasnoname: Looks like there are ubuntu changes on that package, so it may need to be touched my a dev. #ubuntu-devel should know better though. | 19:23 |
| lukehasnoname | Thanks | 19:44 |

| genii | johanbr: I was getting other GLX error msgs originally but am on the nvidia-vdpau ppa now | 21:43 |
| johanbr | genii, alright, I'll give that a try | 21:44 |
| johanbr | thank you | 21:44 |

| Ng | gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad is doing it | 21:53 |
| Ng | or is trying to :D | 21:53 |
| johanbr | genii, that just seems to be for media playback, though | 22:06 |
| johanbr | the error I pasted is from the X log file | 22:07 |
| hyperstream | Raliuga, in the topic is the link :) | 22:07 |
| Raliuga | oh ok, i will go to Windows and download it cuz with 2kbps... it will take like 1 week xD | 22:07 |
| hyperstream | lol :) | 22:08 |
| bjsnider | genii, you can't use hte ppa anymore because i removed the lucid drivers | 22:11 |
| genii | bjsnider: Perhaps thats why jockey is telling me "NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (version current) [Recommended]" | 22:13 |

| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | The ATI and nVidia binary drivers may not be currently installable at the moment | 22:15 |
| yofel | genii: that's the correct one from the repos, but it doesn't work with jockey yet afaik | 22:16 |
| BluesKaj | yofel, jockey isn't working correctly , it's recommending the wrong driver choice in a lot of cases | 22:33 |

| charlie-tca | hyperstream: You should not do a partial upgrade | 23:11 |
| hyperstream | charlie-tca, how can i make it do a full update * | 23:11 |
| hyperstream | charlie-tca, via the update-manager | 23:11 |
| onetinsoldier | hyperstream: sudo aptitude full-upgrade | 23:11 |
| hyperstream | says: Not all updates can be installed, do a partial upgrade to install as many updates as possible, grab a new cd and reinstall ? | 23:12 |
| charlie-tca | seems dangerous, though. If update manager says it can only do a partial upgrade, forcing it usually breaks things | 23:13 |
| hyperstream | yeah ive had that issue before hand | 23:13 |
| onetinsoldier | not all updates can be installed? hmmm | 23:13 |
| onetinsoldier | what version of ubuntu are you upgrading from? | 23:13 |
| charlie-tca | If you want to be safe, you wait for the rest of the upgrades to be added. | 23:14 |
| hyperstream | im running lucid trying to use the update manager | 23:14 |
| onetinsoldier | hyperstream: roger | 23:14 |
| onetinsoldier | hyperstream: then try.... sudo aptitude safe-upgrade | 23:14 |
| hyperstream | charlie-tca, been like this for a few weeks, thought along the same lines as your previous post | 23:15 |
| hyperstream | Is there anyway i can find out which packages wont install etc? | 23:16 |
| onetinsoldier | no luck with --> sudo aptitude safe-upgrade? | 23:16 |
| prefrontal | after upgrading to lucid i don't get dns name resolution unless i do ifdown eth0 && ifup eth0 | 23:17 |
| prefrontal | then everything works perfectly | 23:17 |
| hyperstream | onetinsoldier, scared to try it lol | 23:18 |
| charlie-tca | You can use sudo apt-get dist-upgrade, read the packages it says won't install, then hit "n" to not do anything | 23:18 |
| onetinsoldier | hyperstream: it will show you what it's going to do first | 23:18 |
| hyperstream | ok ill give both a shot, will get back to you guys shortly | 23:18 |
| hyperstream | thanks | 23:18 |
| onetinsoldier | hyperstream: does that command show that it's going to upgrade a lot of packages? | 23:19 |
| charlie-tca | hyperstream: if aptitude safe upgrade will tell the packages, use it | 23:19 |
| hyperstream | ok, there is alot with safe-upgrade: | 23:20 |
| hyperstream | 385 packages upgraded, 25 newly installed, 5 to remove and 1 not upgraded. | 23:20 |
| hyperstream | Need to get 300MB of archives. After unpacking 159MB will be used. | 23:20 |
| onetinsoldier | if you haven't been able to update in a long time and safe-upgrade shows a lot that it will update, then i think you should go for it :-) | 23:20 |
| onetinsoldier | if you haven't been able to update in a long time and safe-upgrade shows a lot that it will update *a lot of packages*, then i think you should go for it :-) | 23:20 |
| prefrontal | i just finished a dist-upgrade, stable enough for my use | 23:20 |
| hyperstream | dist-upgrade has the following: | 23:21 |
| hyperstream | 386 packages upgraded, 28 newly installed, 6 to remove and 0 not upgraded. | 23:21 |
| hyperstream | Need to get 303MB of archives. After unpacking 165MB will be used. | 23:21 |
| hyperstream | pretty close if you ask me :) | 23:21 |
| onetinsoldier | hehe | 23:21 |
| charlie-tca | What is the package the safe-upgrade won't install? | 23:22 |
| hyperstream | charlie-tca, both say this: The following packages are RECOMMENDED but will NOT be installed: | 23:22 |
| hyperstream | ttf-lyx | 23:22 |
| charlie-tca | onetinsoldier: run the safe-upgrade??? | 23:23 |
| onetinsoldier | hyperstream: you can ignore that 'recommends' package | 23:23 |
| charlie-tca | It has 3 less new packages, which might be the ones on hold | 23:23 |
| onetinsoldier | i'd run the safe-upgrade and restart... then see what full-upgrade would do | 23:23 |
| charlie-tca | I have to agree with that. At least that brings the package list down to something you can see easier. | 23:24 |
| hyperstream | Heh, just found out im capped, wont be doing anything till the 7th of next month >< FML, Australia FTL | 23:24 |
| onetinsoldier | just to see what it would do.. i wouldn't necessarily run the full-upgrade. but, it will only be a few packages to see out of curiosity after the safe-upgrade | 23:24 |
| onetinsoldier | hyperstream: awww, bummer :( | 23:25 |
| hyperstream | Thanks tho guys, ill definatly do a safe-upgrade | 23:25 |
| onetinsoldier | roger. good luck | 23:25 |
| hyperstream | onetinsoldier, 30Gig's $130 a month.. | 23:25 |
| hyperstream | Gone lol | 23:25 |
| charlie-tca | Well, by that time, the issues could resolve and everything will update | 23:25 |
| hyperstream | charlie-tca, that is true :) | 23:26 |
| onetinsoldier | hyperstream: i hear ya. pretty expensive | 23:26 |
| onetinsoldier | sort of. 30 gigs is quite bit! | 23:26 |
| onetinsoldier | 1 gig a day keeps the doctor away | 23:26 |
| hyperstream | thing is with aussie is the 24month contracts.... there are isp's out now that have 80-90gigs for $80 a month | 23:26 |
| onetinsoldier | roger. we're getting into off-topic now. but i hear ya | 23:27 |
| hyperstream | Opps, my bad :) anyways, thanks guys | 23:27 |
| onetinsoldier | cheers :-) | 23:28 |
