| FFForever | is there a way I can run a script on mount/unmount? | 00:33 |
|---|---|---|
| charlie-tca | sure, I use one for sshfs to mount and unmount my folders | 00:35 |
| charlie-tca | FFForever: you will need to run it using sudo if it is not for sshfs | 00:37 |
| FFForever | ChanServ, well I am thinking of something more like if mounted volume has run.py/sh/pl execute it like run.pl --action=mount | 00:38 |
| FFForever | charlie-tca* bad auto complete | 00:39 |
| charlie-tca | Oops, you are way ahead of me, I think | 00:39 |
| histo | wierd just installed alpha 3 browsing is extremely slow but hell I can download updates at 300k/sec. We'll see if they help. | 00:40 |
| histo | Also nvdia in hardware drivers looks messed up. | 00:40 |
| FFForever | are there any hooks I can use for when something is mounted? | 00:41 |
| histo | FFForever: hooks? | 00:41 |
| charlie-tca | FFForever: You could grab an older version of Ubuntu, and look at the mount files in /etc/init.d | 00:42 |
| charlie-tca | I think gutsy or hardy probably had 4 or 5 of them, using different mount things | 00:42 |
| histo | FFForever: visudo will let you run scripts with root | 00:42 |
| charlie-tca | And none of them made much sense to me | 00:42 |
| FFForever | histo, an app (hopefully python) that is called to handle the mount/unmount procedures | 00:43 |
| histo | FFForever: you're trying to make one? there are volume managers | 00:43 |
| histo | FFForever: I'm confused by what you are trying to do or why? | 00:43 |
| histo | anyone here using empathy up by the clock? | 00:44 |
| histo | I added my accounts well only one is working but how do I see who is online now? | 00:44 |
| FFForever | histo, I have scripts I execute manually when I plug in my thumbdrive to mount an encrypted volume link files while its there and then launch firefox, when I am done I unlink the files copy generic profiles, and unmount the encrypted volume | 00:45 |
| FFForever | Would be nice to auto run the first script on mount, and when I right click unmount to run the second one before unmounting | 00:45 |
| histo | FFForever: hrm.... you'd prolly have to look at gvfs or gnome-volume-manager or whatever ubuntu is using to mount devices automatically. | 00:46 |
| histo | FFForever: see if you can call a script when they are invoked or something. | 00:46 |
| histo | None of you guys use empathy? | 00:48 |
| firestrider | Hey is it a bad idea to install (not live) ubuntu 10.04 on a flash drive | 00:59 |
| histo | nvm nvidia is working now. | 00:59 |
| histo | firestrider: why would it be a bad idea? | 01:00 |
| firestrider | because I thought flash drives had limited write-erase cycles | 01:00 |
| genii | firestrider: They do fail sooner than hard drives, yes | 01:00 |
| histo | firestrider: you said not live? | 01:00 |
| firestrider | correct | 01:01 |
| histo | firestrider: meaning what? You are going to use it to isntall from? | 01:01 |
| firestrider | I'm going to put the installer on another flash drive | 01:02 |
| histo | i'm confused | 01:02 |
| genii | histo: I imagine he means to install it onto the flash drive like a regular hard drive install, and not something like a unetbootin install which just uses syslinux to load the iso or so | 01:02 |
| histo | ahh | 01:03 |
| histo | firestrider: is it a usb thumbdrive? | 01:03 |
| firestrider | yep, 4GB | 01:03 |
| genii | firestrider: Is it one with that U3 on it? | 01:03 |
| histo | firestrider: well whats that cost 8$ for a new one? so whats the big deal if it dies eventually? | 01:03 |
| histo | firestrider: its gong to die someday anyhow. | 01:03 |
| firestrider | no its a patriot | 01:03 |
| === nFxus is now known as nFxus|AFK | ||
| firestrider | actually I think I want to make a partition on my hard disk for it... nvm | 01:06 |
| firestrider | cause I would have a flash drive sticking out of my laptop everywhere I go | 01:06 |
| firestrider | Would there be any conflicts if I shrank a windows 7 x64 partition and made a new one and put ubuntu 10.04 x64 on it? | 01:07 |
| firestrider | the windows boot manager would see ubuntu right? | 01:07 |
| DanaG | It's more likely it would go the other way: grub would see the Windows boot loader. | 01:08 |
| DanaG | Oh yeah, awesome thing you can do with (some?) U3 drives: | 01:08 |
| DanaG | Replace the U3 virtual-cd disk with a Linux LiveCD. | 01:08 |
| DanaG | When you plug it into a system, it will actually appear as a real USB CD drive! | 01:08 |
| genii | DanaG: Yes, I actually did that with U3-tool as an experiment. Then I made it a persistent install using the rest of the stick for storage | 01:12 |
| DanaG | hmm, how do you do that? | 01:15 |
| DanaG | oh, a real install on the flash-drive part, and just ISO on CD part? | 01:16 |
| === nFxus|AFK is now known as nFxus | ||
| genii | DanaG: No, you boot the iso off the virtual cd part than have a partition on the other section which is casper-rw or so, it uses that if it sees it exists during booting the livecd part. You use u3-tool to get the livecd iso on the virtual cd section | 01:19 |
| ZykoticK9 | in USC does anyone know how to list PPAs the same way 3rd party Repos (like Google & Medibuntu) are listed under Get Software? | 01:20 |
| DanaG | ah, how does the persistent data bit work, anyway? | 01:20 |
| genii | DanaG: I don't know exactly how that part works. But the volume name of a partition you want to use to save stuff to after you've booted from livecd needs to be casper-rw for it to automagically use it | 01:26 |
| LADmaticCA | i get logged out of pidgin every day after work. says I "logged in from another location" Anyone else getting this? | 01:27 |

| histo | yes | 01:28 |
| genii | LADmaticCA: Perhaps someone in your house is turning on your computer which is located there and it's set to auto-login to whichever servive is complaining (MSN, etc) | 01:30 |
| LADmaticCA | genii, well i live by myself at the moment | 01:30 |
| LADmaticCA | genii, it just logged me out again right now | 01:31 |
| genii | LADmaticCA: Do you have some client checking your Hotmail or so on a schedule which coincides? | 01:32 |
| genii | (if it's MSN the culprit) | 01:32 |
| LADmaticCA | genii, it is MSN, but I don't know of anything checking my hotmail | 01:33 |
| genii | LADmaticCA: Like getlive or so | 01:34 |

| genii | Because if you have evolution or kmail etc scheduled to check or sync just before work finishes, logging into your hotmail that way also counts as an IM login | 01:35 |
| genii | (which boots you off) | 01:35 |
| LADmaticCA | genii, I actually only use that account for chatting. if I check the mail I do it via web browser | 01:36 |
| LADmaticCA | genii, the first time I had this happen, I was logged out of pidgin and empathy had logged me in. So i tried removing empathy but it didn't make a difference | 01:37 |

| wirechief | Volkodav it did that to me | 02:17 |
| Volkodav | ok | 02:17 |
| Volkodav | so I am not alone | 02:17 |
| wirechief | i used unetbootin | 02:17 |
| Volkodav | I tried different iso's | 02:18 |

| Volkodav | the bug is files already | 02:20 |
| Volkodav | files* | 02:20 |
| wirechief | hmm maybe a bug report is needed for launchpad with reference to the link you gave | 02:21 |
| wirechief | Volkodav do apt-get install unetbootin | 02:21 |
| Volkodav | I did | 02:22 |
| wirechief | it shows up in the menu Applications | 02:22 |
| ZykoticK9 | Volkodav, wirechief you aren't the only two with issues with USB creator -- i have seen several people in the channel with problems... I've never tried it under Lucid, worked for me on Karmic | 02:22 |
| wirechief | yes me too, it seems that it isnt fixed until the final release. | 02:23 |
| wirechief | same with 9.04 | 02:23 |
| wirechief | i was surprised by that, i thought oh no, here we go again. | 02:23 |
| wirechief | well unetbootin works that helps and its installable. | 02:24 |
| wirechief | im in the middle of a .iso download will have to wait for it to finish before i can put a report in launchpad. | 02:24 |
| Volkodav | started unetbootin | 02:26 |
| Volkodav | the progress bar at least - looks like it is doing something | 02:26 |
| wirechief | i had to mkdosfs -F32 -I /dev/sdb and | 02:28 |
| wirechief | i had to mkdosfs -F32 -I /dev/sdb1 | 02:28 |
| wirechief | before my stick would work. | 02:28 |

| wirechief | ah, ok | 02:28 |
| Volkodav | it is installing now | 02:28 |
| wirechief | good. | 02:28 |
| Volkodav | Xubuntu should be ok for P 4 2,6 and 512 ram you think ? | 02:29 |

| arand | Amira: If you keep the system updated, you will always follow the latest development in the pre-release version of ubuntu, up untill the final it is all a fast-rolling release. | 08:56 |
| Amira | so if i update all the time and when it comes to 29april and i update the last update there then i got the full stable version.. | 08:57 |
| arand | Amira: yes. but since it's alpha software it may break along the way. | 08:58 |

| espen77 | Amira: it is very similar to 9 | 09:02 |

| Maphiosomirin | espen77 u know some comunnity on the launchpad to i know if i can do the test at april ? | 09:27 |
| arand | espen77: Since we're in feature freeze (in theory) most of the breaking should already be done. | 09:31 |
| PolitikerNEU | arand: Theoretically true, but in fact in my experience the later the alpha, the less stable | 09:32 |
| espen77 | arand: this alpha has been suprizingly stabile | 09:32 |
| PolitikerNEU | yeah, until now 10.04 runs better than 9.10 for me | 09:33 |
| PolitikerNEU | especially my WLAN is much more stable | 09:33 |
| PolitikerNEU | (however, I still get many disconnects) | 09:33 |
| arand | Stability is very relative, and with the whole plymouth&noveau re-arrange, dependeded heavily on hardware.. | 09:34 |
| PolitikerNEU | yeah, the boot-screen isn't nice (character "graphics" like fedora, but worse since there are some messages printed during booting) - but that doesn't really matter for me | 09:34 |

But having a look at the Lucid schedule, it doesn't look like there will be any more synchs with Debian (and especially not Debian unstable). Is there anything that someone (I?) can do, to help get Gnash 0.87 into Lucid? Since it will provide a free Flash alternative, that currently works for the big v | 09:40 |

| tgpraveen12 | the binary drivers will NEVER support Kms and hence plymouth will give problems the hope is that nouveau is supposed to work with it | 10:45 |
| tgpraveen12 | but i am not certain if it does currently in lucid or not | 10:45 |
| nacho | ok thanks | 10:45 |

| viliny | What does the LTS stand for in release names? | 10:54 |
| Ian_Corne | Long time support | 10:54 |
| arand | s/time/Term/ | 10:55 |
| Ian_Corne | oh | 10:55 |
| Ian_Corne | damnit :p | 10:55 |
| viliny | Huh? So Ian_Corne was correct or not? :) | 10:59 |
| Ian_Corne | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LTS | 11:04 |
| Ian_Corne | I was not | 11:04 |
| Ian_Corne | It means the version will be supported longer then the other versions | 11:05 |
| viliny | Ah so correct is "Long Term Support" | 11:06 |
| BUGabundo_remote | Ian_Corne: its not just a question of time | 11:08 |
| BUGabundo_remote | there are more attention to details, and not so many new features | 11:08 |

| viliny | Lucid lynx looks sweet, is this a good representation on how the final version will look like? | 13:10 |
| viliny | (all dark-like and everything behind 1 menu button) | 13:10 |
| xguru | everything behind 1 menu button? | 13:11 |
| PolitikerNEU | Hmm ... only for new installs or for upgraded ones too? | 13:12 |
| viliny | menu button holds places and other stuff that used to have it's dedicated menu | 13:12 |
| switchgirl | faults with ubuntu lucid: chat accounts dont work | 13:12 |
| PolitikerNEU | ah, ok - maybe after the upgrade I am currently doing | 13:12 |
| xguru | hmm...i still have applicaions, places, and system.. | 13:13 |
| PolitikerNEU | me too | 13:13 |
| viliny | is it possible to get lucid to not steal mouse focus once focused in virtualbox? i installed client additions and mouse behaviour seems to be the only problem | 13:14 |
| marienz | viliny: I haven't seen that change at all, but I upgraded, didn't create a new account | 13:15 |
| viliny | menu you mean? | 13:15 |
| marienz | viliny: that sounds like just a different default, I'm pretty sure the applet you describe has been around for ages | 13:15 |
| viliny | i have all the items stacked behing a single little logo-button in the left upper corner | 13:15 |
| marienz | yes | 13:15 |
| marienz | in "add to panel" you should have a "main menu" as well as a "menu bar". Sounds like you got "main menu" while the default last time I checked was "menu bar" | 13:16 |
| viliny | im not even sure what we're talking about here anymore | 13:16 |
| marienz | < ~viliny> menu button holds places and other stuff that used to have it's dedicated menu | 13:17 |
| marienz | that's not true for my existing accounts, and it seems like an odd change to make | 13:17 |
| viliny | oh i see, well im here with a fresh install and i noticed the change | 13:17 |
| marienz | mmm, not sure I like that one then, oh well, can always change it back. | 13:18 |
| viliny | yes | 13:18 |
| marienz | I don't know about virtualbox, sorry. | 13:18 |
| viliny | takes more time to get to places was my first impression | 13:18 |
| marienz | I'd prefer if at least the "system" menu was just inlined in that main menu, since it only has 5 items in it | 13:19 |
| viliny | hold on | 13:19 |
| marienz | on my laptop I've hacked it so that the "preferences" and "administration" menu from "system" are in "applications", the word "applications" is removed, and the entire "system" menu is removed. | 13:20 |
| viliny | okay well this is interesting, print screen stopped working | 13:21 |
| viliny | whats the key combo in ubuntu? | 13:22 |
| switchgirl | faults with ubuntu lucid: shows i have a diskette to mount - i phisically do not own a diskette and never have | 13:23 |
| marienz | viliny: printscreen works for me. What does preferences -> keyboard shortcuts say desktop -> take a screenshot is bound to? Does re-binding that to your printscreen key help? | 13:25 |
| marienz | viliny: does alt+f2 -> gnome-screenshot work? | 13:26 |
| marienz | switchgirl: I don't see that (and I don't have a diskette drive in this system either). Perhaps pastebin dmesg, it may have clues? | 13:26 |
| switchgirl | marienz, in the applet | 13:28 |
| marienz | you lost me | 13:29 |
| marienz | which applet? | 13:29 |

| BUGabundo_remote | nothing to do with Ubuntu vanilla | 13:43 |

Having said that I am always up for meeting new people. I encourage anyone to request sponsorship and learn the process if nothing else. Just keep in mind that if you are sponsored there IS work involved. :-) | 14:55 |

| BUGabundo_remote | ahahaah | 15:09 |
| markl_ | alex_mayorga: heh i wish | 15:09 |
| espen77 | markl_: you can use it as usb-mass storage, but unless ipod support has changed the last year getting music into opod touch and iphone is hard | 15:16 |
| markl_ | yes the newest libgpod supports it | 15:17 |
| markl_ | from what i understand | 15:17 |

| Kangarooo | what would happen if ill install next release? 10.04 ? will it have some bugs? where more bugs? in 9.10 or 10.04 ? will bugs reported for 10.04 be made. couse as i see 9.10 bugs are very very slowly beeing removed | 16:37 |
| Viper1432 | Kangarooo, the main reason to install an "alpha" release is to assist in finding and fixing bugs. So to answer your question,...YES there will be more bugs in the 10.04 alpha3 release than are currently in the released versions. | 16:40 |
| genii | 10.04 has lots of bugs still. You should stay with a stable release unless there is some amazing reason to be running un-released software. You could always install it along-side on a different partition or a usb stick though for testing, and keep your 9.10 as a way to recover when it crashes | 16:40 |
| Kangarooo | if bug in 9.10 is removed is it also removed in 10.04 ? | 16:40 |
| genii | (right now I'm back on my 9.04 since latest updates killed my X again ) | 16:40 |
| genii | Kangarooo: It usually works in the other directioon | 16:41 |
| Ian_Corne | having your /home/ shared by both is not a good idea btw | 16:43 |
| Ian_Corne | :p | 16:43 |
| genii | Ian_Corne: Yes, I've made that mistake before | 16:44 |
| Viper1432 | that reads like personal experience there. ouch. lol. | 16:44 |
| Ian_Corne | Uhu, don't do it. | 16:45 |
| Viper1432 | did it once back in the warty days. never...ever....again. I just copy .xxx folders from the main home over if needed. | 16:45 |

| espen77 | nperry: stop | 18:00 |
| robin0800 | espen77: perhaps take out quiet and splash | 18:02 |
| stdisease | Something is adding a bridge interface pan0 to my system, where is that coming from | 18:02 |

| nperry | Booting now | 18:04 |

| robin0800 | espen77: hit return | 18:08 |
| stdisease | yofel, I've seen related reports but because it's hard for me to pinpoint a cause if any of them matches my problem. NetBSD, FreeBSD and a Debian Sid system are all rebooting fine, I don't know what's so 'special' about this system to make it behave like this | 18:12 |

| nperry | Or go into terminal | 18:13 |
| yofel | stdisease: could be plymouth if you have it installed | 18:13 |
| espen77 | nperry: what is the last line of text you can see? | 18:13 |
| nperry | something to do with my android rules | 18:14 |
| nperry | as its becoming redunant, but thats been like it before | 18:14 |
| stdisease | yofel, think I could safely remove it? Never used that before. | 18:14 |
| yofel | stdisease: afaik only cryptsetup really depends on it right now, it's only recommended otherwize, you could try to purge the packages and see if it helps | 18:16 |
| yofel | stdisease: I removed plymouth here when it broke boot with nvidia for me, so it's possible | 18:16 |
| stdisease | yofel, right. I'll try a few things then | 18:17 |
| espen77 | nperry: so it seem to load kernel and init file ok.....try <ctrl><alt><f1> or <ctrl> C or <ctrl><sysrq>P i think | 18:17 |
| yofel | stdisease: it might want to remove nouveau which should be fine if you don't use it | 18:17 |
| ujjain | How can I upgrade to Lucid? I want to have virt-manager 0.8.3 | 18:21 |
| nperry | Not to sure where my sysrq button is as using an apple keyboard | 18:22 |
| ZykoticK9 | ujjain, sorry to disappoint you but it's not in Lucid -- 0.8.2-2ubuntu4 0 is the version of virt-manager | 18:22 |
| espen77 | nperry: <ctrl><alt><f1> had no effect? | 18:22 |
| nperry | Nope | 18:23 |
| stdisease | yofel, Plymouth gone.. I still have to reset with the switch | 18:23 |
| ujjain | ZykoticK9: How do I get it on 9.10? | 18:23 |
| ujjain | I currently have 0.7 | 18:23 |
| ZykoticK9 | ujjain, no idea don't use it. good luck. | 18:23 |
| ujjain | I need KVM and people recommend virt-manager. | 18:23 |
| ZykoticK9 | ujjain, VirtualBox supports 64bit guest OSs BTW | 18:24 |
| stdisease | ujjain, (at your own risk) put lucid sources in your sources.list and fetch the version you want with aptitiude | 18:24 |
| ujjain | I have used VirtualBox, but it cannot run a Windows that is installed on the same disk. /dev/sda5. | 18:24 |
| nemo | ujjain: hm? it can | 18:24 |
| nperry | When i press Ctr+any letter it will change from cursor to white bar | 18:25 |
| * genii thinks about logical volumes and other OSes | 18:25 | |
| ujjain | nemo: Reallly? | 18:25 |
| nemo | ujjain: yep | 18:25 |
| espen77 | nperry: <ctrl><alt><f2> then? | 18:25 |
| genii | ( extended partitions, etc) | 18:25 |
| nemo | ujjain: but. the problem you will likely run into is XP security restrictions | 18:25 |
| nemo | ujjain: even if you use vbox to spoof almost all the settings | 18:25 |
| ujjain | nemo: What are these? | 18:25 |
| nemo | that's a problem no matter what you use | 18:25 |
| ZykoticK9 | ujjain, notice the red warning -- http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch09.html#rawdisk | 18:26 |
| nperry | espen77: nope | 18:26 |
| nemo | ujjain: Microsoft creates a weighting based on your machine's specs | 18:26 |
| nemo | ujjain: if your machine changes too much, they lock it down. and good luck getting microsoft support to reenable | 18:26 |
| ujjain | wow :) | 18:26 |
| nemo | ujjain: I've tried. basically impossible | 18:26 |
| stdisease | ujjain, also qemu is an alternative | 18:26 |
| ujjain | Yes, I understand now. | 18:26 |
| nemo | one more reason they suck | 18:26 |
| ujjain | Yes, I have been trying to get Qemu to work | 18:26 |
| ujjain | But the nweest OS it lists is Windows Vista. | 18:27 |
| ujjain | and the newest 64-bits OS it lists is XP | 18:27 |
| espen77 | nperry: i am out of ideas then, | 18:27 |
| stdisease | Um so what if it doesn't list it, just run it anyway. Also just FYI your CPU has to have Intel-VT to run 64bit guests | 18:27 |
| stdisease | and a 64-bit host, needless to say | 18:28 |
| ZykoticK9 | ujjain, you using AMD or Intel CPU? | 18:28 |
| ujjain | ZykoticK9: Intel Q6600, VT support. | 18:28 |
| ZykoticK9 | ujjain, "grep vmx /proc/cpuinfo" | 18:29 |

| ZykoticK9 | ujjain, ya your CPU support VT, are you running a 64bit OS? "uname -m" | 18:31 |
| ujjain | I run Ubuntu 64 and Windows 7 64 | 18:33 |
| ujjain | I have 2 partitions, 1 Windows, 1 Ubuntu | 18:33 |

| nemo | stdisease: but hasn't seen any action in months | 18:42 |

| nperry | see if i can do anything there | 18:49 |
| stdisease | If it says that under the logo then it's plymouth, yes, try booting without 'splash quiet' in your GRUB screen or in your grub.cfg see if you can get more helpful messges | 18:50 |
| stdisease | And why is cryptsetup depending on plymouth at all!.. | 18:50 |
| hifi | stdisease: no logo, just a screen with white progress bar at the bottom and that message at the center | 18:51 |
| hifi | note: upgraded from karmic with update-manager | 18:52 |
| hifi | yay, a blank screen with a blinking cursor after fsck and friends | 18:54 |
| stdisease | hifi, heh, try booting in single user mode, too | 18:55 |
| hifi | it works after I shut it down hard and boot again... | 18:56 |
| hifi | after I shut down the working system the next boot will hang again | 18:56 |
| hifi | seems like it's related to fsck checking the file system | 18:56 |
| hifi | seems to boot ok if I force fsck every time... | 19:02 |
| hifi | also the login screen does not appear when I boot, it shows a partial 640x480 desktop with distorted colors | 19:03 |

| stdisease | adamplumb, y-w | 19:07 |
| adamplumb | hmm..it seems to be stuck on the "Running 'update-grub'"... status now, though | 19:07 |
| adamplumb | this may be related to what happened earlier. When I tried to boot up the livecd it got stuck on the splash screen. Rebooting and removing "quiet splash" from the boot line got me to the desktop | 19:08 |
| hifi | stdisease: I'll try disabling auto-login, rebooting and re-enabling it again if it helps | 19:09 |
| stdisease | adamplumb, whenever it runs update-grub it usually invokes os-prober again.. just keep killing | 19:09 |
| adamplumb | is that going to cause problems in other areas? | 19:10 |
| ATI-issue | I hope someone can help me on an issue that I am having getting the proprietary ATI drivers going on my Lucid desktop. I had an Nvidia card until recently and after this change, I can't get the fglrx driver to install. It wants to remove xorg and has dependency issues | 19:10 |
| charlie-tca | AFAIK, ati drivers are not compatible with lucid at this time | 19:11 |
| ATI-issue | is there any alternative means to get at least the full resolution on my screen | 19:14 |
| ATI-issue | My monitor is capable of 1920x1080 but I am stuck at 1280x1024 right now | 19:14 |
| hifi | ATI-issue: use the open source drivers | 19:14 |
| hifi | which you should be using right now | 19:15 |
| ATI-issue | There is no /etc/X11/xorg.conf on the machine to mess with at all! | 19:15 |
| hifi | check if xrandr outputs any usable modes | 19:15 |
| ATI-issue | I tried using xrandr but I was having a bit of trouble with it | 19:15 |
| hifi | stdisease: looks like auto-login is borked, after I re-enabled it the problem came back | 19:15 |
| hifi | ATI-issue: does xrandr show 1920x1080 as a supported mode? | 19:16 |
| ATI-issue | No, highest xrandr shows is 1680x1050 | 19:16 |
| ATI-issue | and even that doesn't show up in the set display GUI | 19:17 |
| ikt | heya guys and girls, my netbook is now failing to resume from 'sleep', after entering the password it just says 'checking...' and never moves from there | 19:18 |
| ikt | where should I file a bug report? | 19:18 |
| stdisease | ATI-issue, with no Xorg running, as root 'Xorg -configure' to generate a xorg.conf - also try proprietary driver when it's working again | 19:18 |
| ATI-issue | ok will do that. Any comments on when the proprietary driver would be working again? | 19:18 |
| hifi | huh, apport tries to report a serious kernel brash bug and asks me if the problem exists with the upstream kernel | 19:19 |
| hifi | how the heck would I know when I don't even know what crashed at this point! | 19:19 |
| stdisease | ATI-issue, heh when ATI/AMD cares enough... probably no more than 1 month | 19:19 |
| stdisease | hifi, welcome to alpha-land | 19:20 |
| ATI-issue | I am happy using the open source drivers if I could get the full resolution for the time being. | 19:20 |
| charlie-tca | hifi: seems like a kernel issue | 19:20 |
| stdisease | ATI-issue, if the resolution doesn't show I doubt you could get, only perhaps if you modify xorg.conf and increase refresh rates. or maybe it's a hard limit with the driver | 19:21 |
| stdisease | OR the kernel... OR it's not finding firmware, or or | 19:21 |
| ATI-issue | Thanks stdisease. That narrows it down! I will mess with the xorg.conf and see what I figure out | 19:22 |
| stdisease | Good luck and courage | 19:23 |
| hifi | I wouldn't really care about other bugs if the system would even boot correctly | 19:24 |
| hifi | at least my huawei modem works better in lucid than karmic | 19:28 |

| belak | How is input autodetection working? I thought I saw something about ditching hal in the new version, but I could be mistaken | 19:53 |
| ZykoticK9 | belak, hal is gone from Ubuntu, but is certainly still present in Kubuntu. What it's replaced with, I don't know. How it works, I also don't know. | 19:55 |
| belak | Alright. | 19:56 |
| belak | The changes page is rather brief on the subject | 19:56 |
| ZykoticK9 | belak, according to the download page "Lucid Alpha 3 sports full removal of the hal package..." which I have come to learn is only a half-truth | 20:00 |
| belak | How is it only a half truth? | 20:01 |
| ZykoticK9 | it's still a requirement of KDE | 20:01 |
| belak | Ah | 20:01 |
| duffydack | http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/03/17-featured-applications-in-ubuntu-1004.html | 20:02 |
| zniavre | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Brand#New%20GtkThemes > is that the real new gtk theme ? | 20:04 |
| JoshuaL | zniavre, i've heard it will be light coloured | 20:05 |
| JoshuaL | so i doubt it | 20:05 |
| rww | how exactly does a theme with dark widgets count as "inspired by the idea of light" :\ | 20:05 |
| ZykoticK9 | zniavre, is it just me or does that theme sorta remind you of OSX as well? | 20:05 |
| rww | oh, there are two, and one of them is not dark. huzzah. | 20:06 |
| JoshuaL | its just a suggestion | 20:07 |
| rww | considering that that page seems to be mostly edited by Jono, I think it's one suggestion that's going to be come reality. | 20:08 |
| jono | light is coming :) | 20:08 |
| rww | jono: Looks nice :) | 20:08 |
| jono | :) | 20:08 |
| jono | I think it looks sweet :) | 20:08 |
| JoshuaL | hmm | 20:09 |
| JoshuaL | why are the close button etc. positioned left? | 20:10 |
| chris| | will light be in beta1? | 20:11 |
| rww | jono: Do you happen to know the name of the font used in the logo designs? | 20:14 |
| jono | rww, I don't, sorry | 20:16 |
| zniavre | ubuntutiling ? | 20:16 |
| zniavre | something around that i guess | 20:16 |
| JoshuaL | so is that really going to be the new theme? | 20:18 |
| zniavre | i can't confirme but maybe | 20:18 |
| duffydack | for me the default themes in all ubuntu`s with the large fonts etc make it look 'dumpy' .. they could do to use a smaller nicer font like liberation or droid. | 20:21 |
| JoshuaL | I like Ubuntu's current theme | 20:21 |
| duffydack | I know its a much ado about nothing and easily configurable, but as default I think something should be done to make it 'smaller' | 20:22 |
| JoshuaL | one thing i hate about the new music store | 20:23 |
| JoshuaL | and ubuntu one in general | 20:23 |
| JoshuaL | the must have of a creditcard while there are a lot of people with paypal out there | 20:23 |
| sebsebseb | Hi | 20:24 |
| kklimonda | so apparently we were all wrong and 10.04 got a new logo and theme.. | 20:25 |
| sebsebseb | kklimonda: Wrong about what? I just joined here | 20:26 |
| rww | sebsebseb: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Brand | 20:26 |
| sebsebseb | rww: yes already been on that, because of this http://www.jonobacon.org/2010/03/03/refreshing-the-ubuntu-brand/ | 20:27 |
| rww | sebsebseb: Ah. Well, that's what we've been talking about :) | 20:27 |
| sebsebseb | I am not impressed by the screen shots, but I will have to install alpha 3 into a vm and get the updates, before I can properly comment about it. | 20:28 |
| sebsebseb | Last time I tried to vm alpha 3 in Virtualbox the installer ended up crashing basically, altough I had also been pressing backwards and forward, not just putting in the info, and hitting next. | 20:28 |
| rww | I dislike dark themes in general, but the light one is pretty nice. Remains to be seen whether it'll replace my beloved Unity :) | 20:28 |
| JoshuaL | rww, got a link to you rtheme? | 20:29 |
| JoshuaL | i wonder why the close/minimalize buttons are located in the left. | 20:29 |
| sebsebseb | rww: same here I don't tend to like dark themes | 20:29 |
| charlie-tca | The new theme is not in alpha3 | 20:29 |
| sebsebseb | charlie-tca: indeed, but get the updates | 20:29 |
| sebsebseb | and it should be there | 20:29 |
| rww | JoshuaL: Unity? It's in gnome-themes-extras (and I didn't make it, I'm just a happy user :) | 20:30 |
| charlie-tca | maybe tomorrow, then? | 20:30 |
| sebsebseb | the screenshots are of what is in the repo I thought? | 20:30 |
| JoshuaL | rww, ah ok | 20:30 |
| ZykoticK9 | sebsebseb, i don't think so | 20:30 |
| charlie-tca | nope | 20:30 |
| JoshuaL | will ubuntu one in 10.04 support symlinks? | 20:31 |
| rww | JoshuaL: ( looks like http://imagebin.org/87388 ) | 20:31 |
| JoshuaL | looks nice rww | 20:32 |
| kklimonda | JoshuaL: #ubuntuone would be a better place to ask this question | 20:33 |
| JoshuaL | kklimonda, ok | 20:33 |
| sebsebseb | charlie-tca: jono just told me, that the new theme isn't in the repo yet | 20:35 |
| sebsebseb | charlie-tca: told me in another channel | 20:35 |
| phillw | there is a problem with "disk failing" icon in 10.04 a3 | 20:35 |
| sebsebseb | jono: So should expect new theme in tommorow's updates? | 20:35 |
| jono | sebsebseb, I would think so | 20:36 |
| charlie-tca | hmmm | 20:36 |
| sebsebseb | jono: ok :) | 20:36 |
| danyR | hey jono why don't we have a window picker and the bottom panel neither in the website mockup or new gtk themes? | 20:37 |
| jono | danyR, autohide was on | 20:38 |
| jono | thats all | 20:38 |
| gsmx | jono: On your blog you are not sure about which theme is going to be the default one, but isn't this an obvious choice? If the new tagline is "Light", it would be rather stupid to have a dark theme... | 20:38 |
| phillw | does any one have where I should report a bug with the "Failing Disk" notification ? | 20:38 |
| jono | gsmx, heh, possibly | 20:38 |
| jono | I honestly don't know :) | 20:38 |
| artir | the new theme isn't as awesome as i thought :( | 20:39 |
| artir | better than human, though | 20:39 |
| rww | phillw: That's the one that pops up Palimpsest when you click it? | 20:39 |
| artir | and the bootscreen is great | 20:39 |
| phillw | rww: yeah | 20:39 |
| danyR | jono: auch, was hoping some awesome news. but ok, still good! | 20:39 |
| rww | phillw: What's the bug? | 20:39 |
| phillw | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8911357 | 20:39 |
| jono | danyR, you are awesome | 20:40 |
| jono | that is news :) | 20:40 |
| phillw | I have now made a note to keep the width down ;-) | 20:40 |
| sebsebseb | artir: A default background similar to the one in 8.10, but of a Lucid Lynx, would have been good. | 20:40 |
| gsmx | the bootscreen is awesome :-) but i must say i'm somewhat dissappointed with the themes... i was hoping for the homosapian or elementary themes | 20:40 |
| jono | gsmx, you can always use another theme :) | 20:40 |
| zniavre | what is suposed to be displayed with plymouth as default theme ? | 20:41 |
| artir | I actually like the background | 20:41 |
| jono | zniavre, the boot image | 20:42 |
| rww | phillw: For icon placement, I'd probably file against gnome-panel. Palimpsest itself is gnome-disk-utility. I'm not sure what it uses to get SMART data. | 20:42 |
| rww | phillw: For actually filing the bug, open a terminal and type ubuntu-bug packagenamehere (e.g. ubuntu-bug gnome-disk-utility) | 20:43 |
| danyR | hey jono, what about that "random" panel icon disposition? they are way to far ones from the others! | 20:43 |
| jono | danyR, they look fine on my machine | 20:46 |
| jono | and I am running Lucid | 20:46 |
| danyR | jono: in the screenshots they're really away one from the others... | 20:47 |
| jono | sorry, no idea, pal | 20:47 |
| danyR | wait, a bit so | 20:48 |
| phillw | rww: thanks - I'll give that a try | 20:48 |
| knittl | hello | 20:50 |
| knittl | did ubuntu change something related to php+apparmor+fopen? | 20:50 |
| BUGabundo | morning | 20:51 |
| BUGabundo | evening | 20:51 |
| BUGabundo | what ever | 20:51 |
| * BUGabundo is tired | 20:51 | |
| danyR | jono: talking about this: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/794944/darktheme.png | 20:51 |
| rww | afternoon! | 20:51 |
| jono | danyR, I am aware of what you mean | 20:51 |
| jono | I don't know about the spacing - looks fine on my current machine | 20:52 |
| danyR | Unfortunately in the screenshots looks really unprofessional | 20:52 |
| duffydack | my friend says he ran the installer and its downloaded a torrent to download an iso ? | 20:52 |
| duffydack | I think he`s been at the sauce again. | 20:52 |
| jono | danyR, sorry you think so | 20:53 |
| jono | I disagree :) | 20:53 |
| kklimonda | jono: any idea if we are going to see a new icons in 10.04? the current look out of place on the screenshots | 20:53 |
| jono | kklimonda I doubt the current icons in Lucid will change much | 20:53 |
| jono | maybe a little | 20:53 |
| danyR | ok, it's probabyle me using karmic for way too much time | 20:55 |
| BetaClone | Are there any list of news for ubuntu lucid? I can't find any on Google? | 20:57 |
| ZykoticK9 | BetaClone, to see what in Alpha 3 visit http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/lucid/alpha3 or to see the schedule visit wiki.ubuntu.com/LucidLynxSchedule | 20:57 |
| BetaClone | ZykoticK9: thanks, ill check it out | 20:58 |
| duffydack | ha, my friend got the A3 iso and ran wubi in windows 7, and its getting a torrent iso | 20:58 |
| rww | I usually keep an eye on http://planet.ubuntu.com/ | 20:58 |
| duffydack | thats not right is it? | 20:58 |
| rww | duffydack: Wubi downloads from an HTTP server, not over bittorrent, last I used it. | 20:58 |
| rww | (though admittedly that was about six months ago) | 20:59 |
| rom1v | hi | 20:59 |
| rom1v | will ubuntu lucid use "nouveau" driver for nvidia? | 20:59 |
| rom1v | and being able to enable compiz with this driver? | 20:59 |
| duffydack | rww, why download anything? he`s got the cd | 20:59 |
| BUGabundo | duffydack: A3 is so old! | 21:00 |
| rww | duffydack: Is he using a version of Wubi configured for Lucid? | 21:00 |
| bjsnider | rom1v, yes to the first question and no to the second | 21:00 |
| BUGabundo | rom1v: yes | 21:00 |
| BUGabundo | but only 2D | 21:00 |
| BUGabundo | hey bjsnider | 21:00 |
| BUGabundo | long time no see | 21:00 |
| duffydack | rww, wubi from the alpha3 cd.... its downloading 9.10 | 21:00 |
| rom1v | but I read the last nouveau driver can enable 3D, no? | 21:00 |
| bjsnider | hey BUGabundo | 21:00 |
| danyR | jono: my last question. metacity controls? are lucid going to ship with them? and it isn't editable, that's the odd part :( | 21:00 |
| BUGabundo | rom1v: yes | 21:01 |
| rww | duffydack: Probably hasn't been updated yet, then. If memory serves, that doesn't usually happen until later in the release cycle than now. | 21:01 |
| BUGabundo | but not what we have in archive | 21:01 |
| BUGabundo | nor it will be there | 21:01 |
| BUGabundo | you have to use PPA from x edgers | 21:01 |
| danyR | is lucid* | 21:01 |
| rom1v | arf, because it's unstable for lucid? | 21:01 |
| === FFForever-Away is now known as FFForever | ||
| BUGabundo | day 3 without gwibber | 21:02 |
| rom1v | s/is .../will be unstable when lucid is out? | 21:02 |
| BUGabundo | bah | 21:02 |
| BUGabundo | rom1v: that PPA is always very unstalbe | 21:02 |
| ZykoticK9 | bjsnider, does nvidia-vdpau PPA support Lucid? | 21:04 |
| BUGabundo | ZOMG | 21:05 |
| bjsnider | ZykoticK9, yes and no. lucid already has everything you need, but the updated mplayer in the vdpau ppa works better than the one in lucid, which reinhard hasn't refreshed yet | 21:05 |
| BUGabundo | - git update to revert the tab at the bottom change (lp: #509079) | 21:05 |

| milosz3 | is it *relatively* safe to upgrade to 10.04 at the moment? | 21:30 |
| rww | milosz3: Relative to what? | 21:31 |
| milosz3 | rww, relative to a stable release | 21:31 |
| rww | milosz3: no | 21:31 |
| sebsebseb | milosz3: no | 21:31 |
| charlie-tca | heh | 21:31 |
| * charlie-tca needed that today | 21:32 | |
| milosz3 | guess i'll keep using iTunes for my iPod touch in vmware for a while then | 21:32 |
| sebsebseb | milosz3: oh that's why you want to do it I see | 21:32 |
| milosz3 | yeah | 21:32 |
| milosz3 | i have some success with ifuse on Karmic | 21:33 |
| milosz3 | but, just some | 21:33 |
| sebsebseb | milosz3: well if you want to get it a bit early, probably best to wait untill the first beta. However by getting early, you might find that there is a reason later on to do a clean install of 10.04, as in with the final when it's out. Also of course whatever OS your running, your important data should be backed up else where, plus harddisks can fail. | 21:34 |
| sebsebseb | milosz3: as for that Iphone support, it's really Gnome that does it not Ubuntu, also Apple might mess that up later on. | 21:34 |
| milosz3 | hmm all true | 21:34 |
| milosz3 | ok thanks for reminding me | 21:34 |
| sebsebseb | milosz3: not tommorow, but the next Thursday, is the first beta, according to the scheduled, and I highly doubt it will be delayed. | 21:35 |
| milosz3 | ok great | 21:35 |
| milosz3 | i already did that with previous betas (upgrade to them) | 21:35 |
| milosz3 | and it always worked out mostly-ok | 21:35 |
| milosz3 | so i have some faith | 21:35 |
| sebsebseb | milosz3: I have started with alpha's a few times before, and not lasted all the way untill the final release, by upgradeing, without issues | 21:36 |
| porter1 | Hello, does anyone know how I can go about reversing the big ugly side borders that were added to the elegant dust theme? | 21:39 |
| daftykins | hi all, i've noticed my region continues to have a US keyboard layout set as default. i'm logged into my launchpad account right now, what should i do? :) | 21:39 |
| daftykins | (to mention it should change) | 21:39 |
| * BUGabundo tries to remember who was the dev from gnome-do, that's usually around here | 21:48 | |
| rww | BUGabundo: DBO? | 21:48 |
| BUGabundo | can't remember | 21:48 |
| BUGabundo | and #do is empty :( | 21:48 |
| BUGabundo | what ever | 21:48 |
| BUGabundo | I better file an wishbug | 21:48 |
| BUGabundo | for it to pull subscriber lists from my statusnet FOAF | 21:49 |
| BUGabundo | https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/do-plugins/+bug/531637 | 21:53 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 531637 in do-plugins "[wishbug] pull FOAF from StatusNet account" [Undecided,New] | 21:53 |
| BUGabundo | there | 21:53 |
| daftykins | is it likely to be a reportable bug with the alpha3 CD image that the keyboard layout i selected manually wasn't set correctly on boot? given i see 176MB of updates too | 21:55 |
| BUGabundo | I see those daily | 21:56 |
| daftykins | sorry was that at me? | 21:57 |
| BUGabundo | y | 21:57 |
| daftykins | well my point is whether it's worth considering it as a bug, or whether my installation was too out of date already? | 21:58 |
| BUGabundo | yes | 21:59 |
| daftykins | yes to which? XD | 22:00 |
| charlie-tca | daftykins: it is a bug if it is still present after all the updates are applied. but it will not be a bug in alpha3, it will be a bug in lucid | 22:04 |
| duffydack | can I upgrade to lucid from a fresh karmic install or do I need to update it first. | 22:05 |
| charlie-tca | I would update it first, myself | 22:05 |
| daftykins | charlie-tca: since they're things set during installation, would it not be a hard thing to define? | 22:06 |
| charlie-tca | You would have to download today's image, and try that one. If the bug is still there, you can report against the image itself | 22:06 |
| milosz3 | sebsebseb, yeah there were always issues but i somehow managed | 22:07 |
| * charlie-tca thinks he is doing too many bugs, now | 22:07 | |
| milosz3 | are there images bootable from USB? | 22:07 |
| milosz3 | that would save burning a CD or DVD | 22:07 |
| milosz3 | more enivronmentally friendly :P | 22:08 |
| daftykins | charlie-tca: thanks for your help :) | 22:08 |
| charlie-tca | You are welcome | 22:11 |
| charlie-tca | milosz3: I think you have to use something like "USB startup disk creator" and the cd image | 22:12 |
| milosz3 | charlie-tca, ok i'll search for it thanks | 22:12 |
| charlie-tca | np. On the other hand, I do not use usb | 22:13 |
| ubuntujenkins | how can I see the boot splash but still use the nvidia restricted driver? | 22:28 |
| duffydack | whats the command to upgrade to lucid ? do-release? | 22:33 |
| duffydack | ah, do-release-upgrade -d | 22:34 |
| Andre_Gondim | duffydack, update-manager -c -d | 22:35 |
