Nafai | A2DP headphones work out the box in Lucid for me | 00:53 |
Nafai | Never got those working before | 00:53 |
hyperstream | so did my Compaq CQ61 , not with karmic tho :) | 00:54 |
RAOF | Nafai: Doesn't pulseaudio rock? :) | 00:54 |
Nafai | RAOF: When it is configured right :) | 00:54 |
Nafai | Time to get higher quality bluetooth headphones, methinks | 01:01 |
coz_ | guys I keep forgetting the name of the tools that comes up for choosing categories in gnome | 02:05 |
coz_ | left column has system appearance etc right section has icons for each of the sections | 02:05 |
jason_ | I'm running Lucid Lynx and having trouble with my mouse being inverted. Can anyone give me a hand? | 02:08 |
coz_ | jason_, I dont think many are here this evening | 02:09 |
coz_ | jason_, just the moue cursor is inverted? | 02:09 |
jason_ | coz_, Exactly. Just the cursor the wheel works fine. | 02:09 |
coz_ | mmm | 02:10 |
coz_ | let me move over to the lucid machine | 02:10 |
coz_ | hold on | 02:10 |
jason_ | Thanks very much | 02:11 |
coz_ | mm I am finding nothing | 02:12 |
jason_ | my problem exactly | 02:12 |
coz_ | jason_, have you tried chaning themes for the cursor then moveing back to the one you have | 02:12 |
jason_ | the mouse preferences suck and xorg.conf is being ignored as far as I can tell for my mouse | 02:12 |
jason_ | coz_, where can I find the ability to change cursor themes? | 02:13 |
coz_ | jacob, are you running gnome? | 02:13 |
jason_ | I am yes | 02:14 |
coz_ | jacob, system/prefereces/appearance Customize button Pointer tab | 02:14 |
jacob | s/jacob/jason_/ | 02:15 |
coz_ | jacob, sorry | 02:15 |
jacob | 's ok ;) | 02:15 |
coz_ | jason_, system/preferences/appearacne Customiz button POinter tab | 02:16 |
jason_ | coz_, Tried it to no avail | 02:16 |
coz_ | mmm | 02:16 |
coz_ | jason_, and you have done sudo apt-get | 02:16 |
coz_ | damn fingers | 02:16 |
coz_ | jason_, sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade just in case some pacakge was changed or bugs fixed? | 02:17 |
jason_ | no good | 02:18 |
coz_ | jason_, mm | 02:19 |
coz_ | jason_, did this just start occurring? | 02:20 |
jason_ | coz_, confusing eh? No, it happened in 9.10 as well | 02:20 |
coz_ | jason_, `on the same hardware? | 02:20 |
jason_ | coz_, yes | 02:20 |
coz_ | jason_, did you find a solution for it on 9.10? | 02:21 |
jason_ | coz_, It's gotta be a driver thing. Targus must do something weird | 02:21 |
coz_ | jason_, was this an upgrade from 9.10 or a clean install ? | 02:21 |
jason_ | coz_, Nope that's why i switched to Lucid thinking it'd work because they got rid of HAL | 02:21 |
jason_ | coz_, Clean install | 02:21 |
coz_ | jason_, wow this is puzzling then...other than it may be something in hardware that is doing this | 02:21 |
coz_ | jason_, which mouse exactly? | 02:21 |
jason_ | Targus AMW51US | 02:22 |
coz_ | jason_, I see nothing mentioned in bug reports on this | 02:22 |
coz_ | jason_, do you have another mouse you could try out?? shut down first and unplug old plug in new of course :) | 02:23 |
jason_ | coz_, My touchpad isn't inverted and my older mouse isn't either. Must be a hardware thing, but I figured I could counter it with Xorg.conf | 02:24 |
coz_ | jason_, ah ok... mm this is an interesting problem... I am going to suggest going to one of the linux channels like ##linux and presenting this has a hardware problem and why ..maybe someone there can troubleshoot this | 02:25 |
coz_ | jason_, if you solve this let me know :) | 02:25 |
jason_ | coz_, Thanks for all your help! I'll check it out | 02:26 |
coz_ | mm he didnt go to ##linux | 02:30 |

crimsun | yay, new hardware to make work with Linux | 02:56 |
RAOF | Woo! | 03:02 |
un214 | bjsnider, RAOF: I got it fixed for now: remove fbcon.ko from disk and the problem goes away | 03:13 |
RAOF | You should file a bug; at least a couple of other people seem to have troubles with the interactions between vga16fb & nvidia | 03:15 |
bjsnider | i'm still unclear about whether this is an nvidia hardware issue or an issue with the nvidia blob | 03:17 |
un214 | it's weirder. I've got an nvidia but not a supported one so udev loads fbcon then tries to load noveau (noveau doesn't load) and isn't smart enough to unload fbcon afterwards | 03:18 |
crimsun | blob is irrelevant; I can reproduce it regardless of X driver | 03:18 |
crimsun | it's one of the lesser reasons that I bought a new laptop | 03:18 |
un214 | RAOF: there's already a bug for when you do have a card for noveau, I filed one for when you do not | 03:19 |
bjsnider | nouveau | 03:19 |
bjsnider | un214, so now you can boot to a nouveau-based desktop with kms and all of that stuff right? | 03:20 |
un214 | no I killed fbcon so it won't load (nouveau doesn't actually support my hardware so that won't help) | 03:21 |
bjsnider | is there an x driver that does support your hardware? | 03:21 |
un214 | VESA | 03:22 |
bjsnider | was this thing manufactured some time during the nixon years? | 03:22 |
un214 | I bought a second CPU core rather than buying any decent graphics card. You see, VESA works on anything since about 1998. | 03:23 |
bjsnider | maybe we should all use vesa | 03:25 |
crimsun | you should! | 03:25 |
un214 | I don't play 3D realtimes games ... | 03:26 |
bjsnider | i thought nouveau supported everything back at least to the riva tnt crap | 03:27 |
bjsnider | not that it would be terribly fast | 03:27 |
RAOF | TNT2 is the first supported card, I believe. | 03:28 |
RAOF | I might be wrong; it might support as far back as TNT. | 03:29 |
un214 | I got a junk nvidia as integerated on a motherboard. I'm not sure if it can actually do any graphics acceleration. | 03:29 |
bjsnider | how old is the board? | 03:30 |
un214 | less than 1 year (I believe it's a case of my CPU beats the heck out of your GPU here rather than having no GPU). | 03:30 |
bjsnider | the board is less than a year old? | 03:31 |
RAOF | Then the GPU will be dramatically more powerful than your CPU (at graphics-specific tasks). | 03:31 |
bjsnider | i think he's misinformed here | 03:31 |
bjsnider | the blob certainly does support that and would be better than vesa by about a billion times | 03:32 |
un214 | when I said my hardware could do a better job of scaling the console than KMS I wan't meaning the graphics card -- I was meaning the monitor | 03:32 |
un214 | The blob didn't support that. | 03:32 |
RAOF | The blob does support that. | 03:32 |
RAOF | The blob also doesn't touch your consoles. | 03:32 |
bjsnider | it certainly does assuming you're correct about the age | 03:32 |
un214 | The blob bailed and X loaded the VESA driver anyway. | 03:32 |
bjsnider | actually nouveau should work well too | 03:33 |
bjsnider | that would give you kms | 03:33 |
un214 | bleh | 03:34 |
Erreon | Can anyone think of a way to fix an inverted mouse cursor? | 03:34 |
RAOF | Anyone who likes working at a VT shouldn't “bleh” kms. I rather like my accelerated, 210x64 console. | 03:34 |
bjsnider | that's why i brought it up | 03:35 |
un214 | I would be unable to use that | 03:35 |
bjsnider | you're awfully sure of waht this thing *can't* do... | 03:36 |
un214 | I like console for the large fix width font | 03:36 |
un214 | at 210x64 I would get eyestrain too fast | 03:36 |
RAOF | You could always change the console font size up. | 03:38 |
un214 | ok the card claims to be an 8200. Maybe the driver does work now even though the one in karmic didn't. | 03:40 |
bjsnider | so you also have vdpau | 03:41 |
bjsnider | does it have an hdmi port? | 03:42 |
un214 | the port is there my monitor hasn't one | 03:43 |
bjsnider | so you could turn that computer into an xbmc-based media center pretty easily | 03:44 |
bjsnider | it would pretty much play any file you could possibly throw at it | 03:44 |
un214 | I'll bet I could do that even w/ VESA with all the CPU I've got | 03:45 |
un214 | I ran a test once running video playback over remote X over the lan. | 03:46 |
bjsnider | does vesa support video playback? | 03:46 |
RAOF | You'll get better quality video out of a driver that supports Xv, generally. | 03:47 |
un214 | Remote X makes it not matter | 03:47 |
RAOF | Ah, sweet. Nouveau is back in compiz-time. | 03:47 |
un214 | ah here's why it doesn't work. There's a device conflict in the chipset. | 03:49 |
un214 | That explains why the blob bailed. | 03:49 |
un214 | ACPI: I/O resource nForce2_smbus [0x700-0x73f] conflicts with ACPI region SM00 [0x700-0x73f] | 03:50 |
bjsnider | nforce? | 03:51 |
bjsnider | there's your problem | 03:51 |
un214 | told you it's junk | 03:52 |
un214 | but hey I'm not complaining about a junk integrated video. I've lived with VESA on a celeron, I can live with it on a dual core AMD | 03:57 |
bjsnider | nforce is the chipset. not well supported on linux. also, amd cpus not well supported. basically the whole thing's not well supported | 03:59 |
un214 | AMD CPU's work just fine. | 03:59 |
RAOF | bjsnider: AMD cpus not well supported? | 04:00 |
RAOF | My nforce2 server with AMD64 processor hasn't had any problems at all :) | 04:01 |
bjsnider | read an entry on phoronix about how a new-ish amd quad core was missing features and not stable in linux | 04:02 |
bjsnider | can't go wrong with intel | 04:02 |
un214 | oh yes you can | 04:02 |
* un214 looks at his cooked celeron | 04:02 | |
un214 | I had a choice: do I buy a supported chipset & graphics card to watch videos, or do I buy a second CPU to watch videos and do other things | 04:04 |
simba_ | is there anyway i could map a "multimedia button" to undo (normally <ctrl>z)? | 04:26 |

jayne | make it really hard to see throuh all the noise to what's still a problem | 05:19 |
jayne | oh good, a named op. | 05:19 |
DanaG | eew, that URL sounds gross. | 05:22 |
DanaG | oh, it' | 05:22 |
DanaG | it's that awful "last measure" thing. | 05:22 |
hyperstream | yes. | 05:23 |
DanaG | note to others: if you're ever curious what suspicious things actually are.... use wget and "less". | 05:24 |
DanaG | View the thing as pure text. | 05:24 |
* The_Thing was pinged? | 05:24 | |
hyperstream | DanaG, i ran it in chrome :) | 05:25 |
hifi | hyperstream: not good enough | 05:26 |
DanaG | I tried the thing once in firefox.... had to xkill it. | 05:26 |
DanaG | or rather, just hit ctrl-alt-backspace. | 05:26 |
hyperstream | hifi, ? | 05:26 |
hifi | if it's the same kind of attack that has been floating around, it will POST to IRC server and flood too | 05:26 |
hifi | it doesn't do any harm to you, but to others | 05:26 |
hyperstream | hifi, how so ? via an infection of some sort? | 05:27 |
hifi | it was the reason I installed NoScript for firefox | 05:27 |
DanaG | And it's very NSFW. | 05:27 |
hifi | hyperstream: no, it's just a regular HTTP POST request with a <form> | 05:27 |
hifi | but it sends IRC commands in the data part | 05:27 |
hyperstream | effective in linux still ? connects me to a irc network from http posts and spams ? | 05:27 |
hifi | irc7 doesn't accept HTTP headers, but hyperion does (I think) | 05:27 |
hifi | it's just a HTTP POST, if you know HTML and HTTP it should be quite easy to understand | 05:28 |
tsimpson | hyperstream: nothing to do with your OS | 05:28 |
hyperstream | yes i do, im a web developer, im just trying to understand how it works. | 05:28 |
hifi | you can POST a form into any host and port | 05:28 |
hifi | it POSTs to port 6667 with data that sends IRC commands | 05:29 |
hyperstream | it interacts with my xchat client? or php socket driven hidden irc client kind of thing? | 05:29 |
hifi | the IRC server ignores HTTP headers | 05:29 |
tsimpson | hyperstream: there is a form with method="post" and action="http://irc.freenode.net:6667/" | 05:29 |
hyperstream | ahhh | 05:29 |
hyperstream | i get yah now :) | 05:29 |
tsimpson | then JavaScript submits the form on-load | 05:29 |
hifi | thats _really_ nasty | 05:29 |
hifi | though, it's also a big fail on freenode's part that it accepts the data | 05:29 |
hyperstream | they are changing ircd's in 3 days | 05:30 |
hyperstream | :) | 05:30 |
tsimpson | it doesn't accept HTTP data, just doesn't disconnect you when you send an invalid command | 05:30 |
hifi | got K-lined for my curiosity last week | 05:30 |
tsimpson | the new IRCd will fix this | 05:30 |
hifi | tsimpson: ignoring it == accepts | 05:30 |
tsimpson | it doesn't ignore it, just send an invalid command message back | 05:31 |
DanaG | NOTICE AUTH :*** Looking up your hostname... NOTICE AUTH :*** Checking ident NOTICE AUTH :*** Found your hostname NOTICE AUTH :*** No identd (auth) response ERROR :Closing Link: 127.0.0.1 (Connection Timed Out) | 05:31 |
DanaG | heh. | 05:31 |
hifi | but thumbs up for the people who invented the "attack" | 05:32 |
hifi | I think it's a masterpiece of one sort | 05:32 |
tsimpson | it's a very old attack actually | 05:32 |
hifi | no viruses, no trojans, just some non-evil javascript | 05:32 |
hifi | which does evil things though | 05:33 |
tsimpson | well, JavaScript allows you to run arbitrary code on a remote system | 05:34 |
tsimpson | it's bound to be exploited | 05:34 |
hifi | not to forget plugins like flash or java which can do pretty much anything if they run by default | 05:39 |

ripps | Is there some way to get notification/indicators of new mail without having to leave evolution open? | 08:37 |
vish | ripps: mail notifier | 08:40 |
vish | but if you select the mails , it will take you to the browser[open mail in the browser] | 08:41 |
ripps | vish: ew, I've used it in the past and it just constantly goofs with my gmail labels | 08:41 |
vish | ripps: alternatively , there was an evolution plugin which would minimize evo to the tray... or try AllTray ;) | 08:42 |
ripps | I like evolution, and I prefer to use it. And I works perfectly with my gmail labels. Why doesn't the indicator hide it like the empathy indicator does. I don't want a tray icon, why should I, when there's an indicator | 08:42 |
vish | ripps: there is a bug for that feature.. no one has implemented it yet.. wanna give it a shot? ;) | 08:43 |
ripps | I don't know how to program. Is there an alltray like program that hides a program instead of minimizing it to tray? | 08:44 |
vish | AFAIK , nope | 08:54 |
ripps | hmm... it seems someone wrote a hack for evolution-indicator that hides evolution. I'll build it and see how it works | 08:59 |

arand | coz_: as a general rule at least.. | 13:18 |
coz_ | arand, oh thats exactly what I do generally but no biggie...its not important at this point for me to any upgrades.... and if it breaks hey I can alsways reinstall on the lucid machine :) | 13:25 |
arand | coz_: aptitude safe-upgrade should suffice in almost all cases, In general, if packages are kept back, it is for a reason ;) | 13:29 |
coz_ | arand, yeah... I understand... dist-upgrade can be risky at this point.... thanks :) | 13:29 |
_stink_ | how is safe-upgrade different from upgrade? safe-upgrade's not in the manpage on karmic, at least | 13:31 |

johanbr | Hi. Does anyone else get "NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the GLX module" in lucid? | 16:21 |
johanbr | This prevents compositing from working. | 16:22 |
Volkodav | !upgrade | 16:37 |
ubottu | For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 16:37 |
Volkodav | hmm | 16:40 |
Volkodav | how do I upgrade from 9.10 ? | 16:41 |
Volkodav | update-manager -d did not work | 16:41 |
mvo | what is the error? | 16:41 |
Volkodav | no error | 16:41 |
Volkodav | system is up to date it says' | 16:42 |
mvo | Volkodav: so no upgrade button, what does ~/.cache/update-manager-core/meta-release-developerment contain? | 16:42 |
mvo | Volkodav: is it the same if you run it again? (or two times?) | 16:42 |
Volkodav | yes | 16:43 |
Volkodav | tried 2 times | 16:43 |
BluesKaj | johanbr, make sure you use the current driver fore your nvidia card , folloow this tutorial to install it. http://www.pastebin.ca/1769509 | 16:43 |
johanbr | BluesKaj, it was after I did precisely that that I ended up with the GLX error | 16:44 |
johanbr | there might be a stray library still around somewhere, I think | 16:44 |
johanbr | but thanks for the suggestion :) | 16:44 |
mvo | Volkodav: could you test the following diff: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/update-manager/karmic/revision/1587?start_revid=1587 | 16:45 |
mvo | Volkodav: actual diff is http://bazaar.launchpad.net/%7Eubuntu-core-dev/update-manager/karmic/diff/1587 | 16:45 |
BluesKaj | johanbr, did you do, sudo nvidia-xconfig ? | 16:45 |
johanbr | no, my xorg.conf is empty | 16:46 |
johanbr | but I just did | 16:46 |
BluesKaj | then you should generate one | 16:47 |
johanbr | we'll see how this works, back in a minute | 16:47 |
Volkodav | mvo - what is it that I do with diff again ? | 16:49 |
johanbr | BluesKaj, no change | 16:50 |
mvo | Volkodav: hm, I think the first information if the output of ~/.update-manager-core/meta-release-development, the last few lines are interessting | 16:50 |

Volkodav | mvo - there is no meta-release-development - only meta-release and meta-release-lts | 16:52 |
mvo | Volkodav: hm, that is odd, it looks like it was unable to download it then | 16:58 |
Volkodav | I will change the repos and then try it again | 16:59 |
mvo | Volkodav: could you add the following lines on top of "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/UpdateManager/MetaReleaseGObject.py" for me: | 16:59 |
mvo | import gtk | 16:59 |
mvo | gtk.gdk.threads_init() | 16:59 |
mvo | and see if that helps? | 16:59 |
Volkodav | too late | 16:59 |
Volkodav | I already sudo sed -i 's/karmic/lucid/g' /etc/apt/sources.list && sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude dist-upgrade | 16:59 |
Volkodav | so packages are upgrading and then I will do do-release-upgrade -d | 17:00 |
DanaG | hmm, kde 4.4 plasma keeps crashing any time I try to add widgets. | 17:08 |
DanaG | Specifically, even if I don't actually add any... it crashes. | 17:09 |
DanaG | Steps to reproduce for me: right-click panel, "add widgets...", and then click in a different window so the panel loses focus. | 17:11 |
charlie-tca | Any one lose brasero, gstreamer, and totem today with the updates? | 17:16 |
charlie-tca | anyone else ... | 17:16 |
johanbr | BluesKaj, I had to symlink /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so to /usr/lib/nvidia-current/xorg/libglx.so | 17:22 |
johanbr | now it works :) | 17:22 |
BluesKaj | johanbr, good to hear | 17:30 |
BluesKaj | johanbr, odd that you needed to make a symlink tho , it should have installed the .so files to the right dir | 17:32 |
johanbr | there was already a /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so (not a symlink), not sure where it came from | 17:33 |
johanbr | so I deleted that, and then pointed it to the nvidia file | 17:33 |
bjsnider | DanaG, did you see that phoronix story about the adobe hacker who's whining about linux video problems? | 17:33 |
BluesKaj | johanbr, I forgot to mention that you needed to remove the previous nvidia driver before installing the new one | 17:35 |
DanaG | hmm, a new one, or an old one? | 17:35 |
DanaG | Oh yeah, there's now Catalyst 10.1... but still doesn't claim Xorg 7.5 support. | 17:36 |
johanbr | BluesKaj, I did remove it, but it's possible that file came from an earlier version and wasn't deleted for some reason | 17:36 |
BluesKaj | ok | 17:36 |
bjsnider | DanaG, there were two posts, most recently this morning | 17:36 |
bjsnider | this guy is just writing blog after blog whining instead of coding | 17:37 |
johanbr | the video coding in the flash plugin makes no sense whatsoever | 17:37 |
johanbr | for instance, they grep for "SGI" in the opengl renderer string, and if found, disable opengl support | 17:40 |
BluesKaj | glxinfo | grep direct ? | 17:41 |
johanbr | yep | 17:41 |
BluesKaj | 3D? | 17:41 |
DanaG | nope, now swrast is direct too. | 17:41 |
johanbr | BluesKaj, what do you mean by "3D" ? | 17:42 |
BluesKaj | glxinfo | grep 3D | 17:42 |
johanbr | they look at "glxinfo |grep renderer", basically, I think | 17:42 |
johanbr | they also disable opengl if your window manager is compiz | 17:43 |
BluesKaj | yup mine outputs : | 17:43 |
BluesKaj | OpenGL renderer string: GeForce 7600 GT/PCI/SSE2 | 17:43 |
johanbr | right | 17:44 |
BluesKaj | johanbr, you have flashplugin-nonfree | 17:44 |
BluesKaj | ? | 17:44 |
johanbr | but any video driver that uses Mesa rendering will have "SGI" in the string, even if it's accelerated | 17:45 |
johanbr | BluesKaj, that's the one I'm talking about, yes | 17:45 |
johanbr | they don't seem to know what they're doing | 17:47 |
BluesKaj | i got rid of compiz , kde desktop effects work as well without the compiz cpu-hog probs | 17:48 |
johanbr | right, there's a bunch of compositing window managers | 17:50 |
johanbr | which is one of the reasons their check for compiz makes no sense | 17:50 |

oskude | i assume when i get 404 when trying to install a package with apt-get its cause the mirror doesn't have the package yet ? | 20:48 |
yofel | oskude: either the mirror didn't sync right, or the package was replaced by a newer one, did you run apt-get update? | 20:52 |
oskude | yoasif, yup, did apt-get update... trying the main repo atm, sec | 20:52 |
oskude | yoasif, yup, was the mirror not sync yet or something | 20:53 |
yofel | oskude: s/yoasif/yofel/ ;) | 20:53 |
oskude | and i fail in <tab> again, sorry yofel and yoasif :) | 20:53 |
oskude | btw. colored sources.list in nano was nice, thanks! :) | 20:55 |
yofel | hey cool, didn't notice that yet :D | 20:55 |
Pici | ooh. Does the new .nanorc have source code hilighting on my default now? | 20:56 |
oskude | Pici, seems so, and lots of other languages, even POV-Ray... havent seen that a while :) | 20:58 |
Pici | oskude: Neat. I've been using a custom .nanorc just to have those enabled, I'll check out the one in /etc/nanorc when I get back to my lucid computer. | 20:58 |

DrHalan | hey, did someone break dependencies with gstreamer? | 23:29 |
yofel | DrHalan: it was broken in the morning, but works fine here now (mirror out-of date?) | 23:35 |
DrHalan | yofel: hm i thought it may be because i have some package sources that supply karmic packages | 23:36 |
DrHalan | but also without them i can't install gstreamer0.10-plugins-base | 23:36 |
yofel | I have karmic still enabled too, but I had package conflicts in the morning, but I updated fine a few minutes ago | 23:37 |
DrHalan | strange | 23:38 |
DrHalan | do you have pidign banshee or totem on your system? | 23:38 |
DrHalan | or codeblocks in taht matter? | 23:39 |
yofel | totem yes, the others not (I use kde with parts of gnome installed as fallback) | 23:39 |
DrHalan | strange | 23:39 |
