[00:01] odd, "from gi.repository import GObject" works fine here... [00:04] oh nice, aptitude 0.6.3-2ubuntu2 is built, finally no hopelessly outdated aptitude in ubuntu anymore :D [00:05] yofel: Of course, now it's not included by default :) [00:06] uh yeah, right.. [00:06] well, it makes sense from a disk space point of view [00:08] aptitude-gtk feels odd though, can't wait for muon :D [00:32] BUGabundo i was afk, my gpu may be faster, but the speed diference may be because i'm using nouveau and xorg edgers instead of nvidia [00:34] true [00:34] that will justify it [00:39] at least with clearlooks the progres bar only eats 30% cpu, 70% less cpu usage with a simple theme change is something incredible [00:39] xD [00:44] gatoloko: have you gotten 3d drivers working for nouveau? [00:45] zakscott yes, it's included in edgers packages [00:46] OpenGL renderer string: Gallium 0.4 on NV86 [00:47] i can even play foobillard, warsow and other 3D games [00:49] but things like flash don't even try to use the gpu because the "glx vendor" field sais SGI [00:52] any good howtos on getting that running? [00:52] 3D performance isn't spectacular, but it's good enough for a desktop, even some basic compiz efects may work at a reasonable speed [00:53] i didn't need to do anything, just added edgers ppa, aplied all the updates and closed the session, once i loged in again it was working automatically [00:55] i might just wait till nvidia releases drivers for the ion chip, hopefully soon [00:55] sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa && sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude full-upgrade [00:55] that's all i did [00:58] "W: GPG error: http://www.avenard.org jaunty Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 43C5D7EA63702FD3" [00:59] that isn't related to edgers, i think [01:01] my mistake [01:03] the most important things lacking in nouveau, imho, are power management and vdpau/vaapi [01:03] with power management i would use it over nvidias blob even on laptops [01:05] ok installed, gona reboot, wish me luck [01:07] hm, 3D works with stock nouveau in maverick too, but it doesn't support a bunch of glx extensions that a few kwin effects want, so I'm back on nvidia [01:08] it does? [01:09] last time i used stop xorg on maverick was on alpha1 and there was no 3D, at least for my card [01:09] I thought we still needed to use the PPA for 3D [01:09] stock [01:10] if maverick final supports nouveau 3D, i'm not touching nvidias driver ever again [01:10] xD [01:11] hm, edgers: 1:0.0.16+git20100707.db98ad23-0ubuntu0sarvatt [01:11] !info xserver-xorg-video-nouveau [01:11] xserver-xorg-video-nouveau (source: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau): X.Org X server -- Nouveau display driver (experimental).

[01:54] no, something is using about 1GiB of RES memory on my notebook after reboot here (at least 'sysctl -w vm.drop_caches=3; free' doesn't show any change) [01:55] if I immediately reboot again it doesn't happen [01:55] at first glance I would blame ureadahead re-profiling, but I don't have any hard evidence for that [01:59] here the bootcharts from both boots: http://yofel.dyndns.org/ext/bootchart/yofel-t510-maverick-20100711-1.png http://yofel.dyndns.org/ext/bootchart/yofel-t510-maverick-20100711-2.png === yofel_ is now known as yofel [04:00] I currently run 10.04 UNR on an acer250 would this bug affect me if I upgrade???...

When I run it it does not show up on the left doc bar. Is there a way to manually do it via config file or something? The app runs via javaws [15:55] What determines the unity doc to find applications? There are several apps that run that do show up on the doc while it is open. [16:11] netbook iso is too large for cd ?

[17:01] did you check if software properties is set to show non-lts upgrades? [17:02] no upgraded to 10.10 but every thing tell me still 10.04 [17:02] yofel no what i do [17:02] raymondjtoth2: what does 'lsb_release -d' in a terminal tell you? [17:03] Description: Ubuntu maverick (development branch) what i get [17:03] yofel, is what get [17:04] then you're running maverick [17:04] what now [17:04] it might be that not every application is updated already to show maverick [17:04] how i get alpha 2 i checked for update like tell me tell no no updates to alphba 2 [17:04] where does it tell you that you're running 10.04? [17:05] in maula [17:05] if go to sysytem and then about ubuntu [17:05] oh that, that seems to be out of date all the time... [17:06] o [17:06] raymondjtoth2: when did you upgrade? alpha1? In that case you only need to make sure to have all updates installed and you're running up-to-date maverick [17:06] yofel, what i do to get alpha2 [17:06] last week [17:06] yofel, [17:06] i did all updates [17:06] also [17:07] ok, does update-manager list any updates? [17:07] but still not showuing me new alpha 2 [17:07] no yofel [17:07] but not updating me to alpha 2 [17:07] raymondjtoth2: where do you expect it to say alpha2? We shouldn't display that anywhere [17:08] on ubuntu wiki that say there a alpha 2 [17:08] update [17:08] ok, but it won't show anywhere in the system [17:08] yofel, im talking this http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/maverick/alpha2 [17:09] if you have all updates installed then you're already running alpha2+ [17:09] o ok [17:09] didnt ask me to update to it [17:09] all gave me was security update and recamened update [17:09] yofel, [17:09] raymondjtoth2: YES, but you can only upgrade lucid->maverick, alpha1->alpha2 is not an upgrade but a matter of simply installing all updates [17:09] it won't show anywhere [17:09] ok [17:10] yofel, then when i start update maniger i afet it check for upadate i get err [17:10] why is this [17:10] righ after the stadis br go way yofel [17:11] what i do yofel [17:12] what error?

[17:51] yes [17:51] want to just have better [17:52] no idea if there's a better one, what's the problem? [18:31] uhm... this is so strange. I wonder what /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/iscan is doing there (iscan is related to epson scanner utility) [18:32] it's breaking the kernel updates [18:34] uga: I can't find that in the archive, is that part of that utility maybe? [18:35] dpkg -S says so. I removed it, and the kernels updated just fine [18:36] it was failing when running update-initramfs, returning 1 [18:40] yofel: no wonder. iscan was manually installed long ago, not on the repositories [18:41] meh [18:41] *heh [18:41] I'll have to figure out how to fix this. I really prefer working hw ;) [18:44] What is the best way to get lvm during installation of UNR ? [18:45] sorry UNE [18:49] the netbook installer does not recognize current lvm partitions [18:49] Dink: If there a d-i version of the UNE installer? [18:49] arand, a what ? [18:50] Dink: debian-installer, as in the alternate installer. [18:50] woah! [18:50] * uga drools [18:51] yofel: sounds like it was good taht this thing broke [18:51] after updating, it fixed the only little issue Ihad with my scanner [18:51] (it wouldn't switch off after using) [18:52] ^^ [18:52] arand, not that I know of. I don't see of specific to the UNE just the generic alternate installer [18:52] Dink: I think you might be able to use tasksel to pull in ubuntu-netbook via the manual pakcage selection in the laternate install CD.. [18:53] oh great, now facebook suggests me to love qtwebkit group [18:53] sirs, not now, not now =) [18:54] Is there a list of what packages are installed on the UNE so I can only install those. This UNE suppose to provide installation of minimal apps correct ? [18:54] Dink: Or possibly even if you start the normal liveCD/USB and then install... hmm, I'm not sure ubiquity supports LVM at all, or how if it does... [18:55] I guess I could just use the d-i and install only the packages I want and then do lvm. [18:55] Dink: There is an ubuntu netbook task in tasksel, similar to ubuntu desktop, so I would assume just switching that task might do that. [18:56] arand, ok so run the d-i then do manual package and change desktop to une ? [18:57] I would assume that's the way to do it. [18:57] And that you can just change tasks like that, rather than having to mess about with individual packages, hopefully.. [18:58] I've never tried, it though, but I've heard d-i uses tasksel, so I assume that's how it would work.. [18:58] arand, thanks will give it a shot. [19:08] btw, if anybody wants a fix for the libqt4-webkit thing, I got a simple foobar.deb [19:08] (just a fake beta2 package which is actually beta1) [19:08] had I been better experienced with deb files before it'd have been quicker ;P [19:13] I have an alpha 1 install. Do I need to download a new disc image? or can I just upgrade packages to get past alpha 2? [19:14] apt-get update; apt-get dist-upgrade should do [19:14] shishire: just install all updates and you're fine [19:15] ty, that's what I figured, but I wanted to make sure [19:25] great, everything up and running again [19:26] I hope the webkit packages thing will get fixed properly soon, else it'll turn users away from beta release testing [19:50] uga: There are always a few things like that during the alphas [19:59] penguin42: what's the politics of alpha/beta releases? shouldn't it at least resolve al dependancies? [19:59] s/politics/policy, sorry ;=) [20:00] don't know [20:04] uga: I think the alpha/beta release dates are pretty much fixed dates [20:05] I didn't mean that. In KDE for example, after a beta release, there's no way anybody can change messages, break binary compatibility, etc [20:06] if after an alpha release in ubuntu, everyone can do what they please, it means it's not even nearing an alpha stage imho [20:06] oh, those rules are somewhere, can't remember where [20:06] there's a date when new versions of stuff can't be imported unless something is horribly broken [20:07] ahk, that makes sense. I think that would be good for the user to know when that happens [20:07] because "alpha" or "beta" names make users (at least me) more confident that things should be getting stable [20:08] yeh, well the purpose of Alpha is to make them have very little confidence! [20:08] I read it as "we need testers!", and you know... I like challenges ;) [20:09] uga: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MaverickReleaseSchedule [20:10] thanks, that will be useful [20:20] uga: we only somewhat guarantee that on release days of the alpha snapshots, there's a soft freeze a few days before that for that purpose, in between them the dependencies might very well make it impossible to use the system [20:29] Good afternoon (EST). :) [20:29] Installed Alpha 2 last night, and I've noticed there is no suspend option. [20:29] Actually, it was probably misisng in 10.04 as well but I wasn't using this desktop much at that point. [20:29] can_suspend = no maybe [20:30] Where is that defined? [20:30] N/m, google can answer that question for me. :) [20:32] Ok, loaded up gconf-editor, the only option I see with "suspend" is: [20:34] yofel: thanks [20:35] /apps/gnome-power-manager/buttons/suspend, /apps/gnome-power-manager/lock/suspend [20:35] Went to ~/.gconf and ran "grep -Rn suspend *" [20:35] Only found one entry. Hmmm, maybe its a root option [20:37] I guess google can't answer this question atm. :) [20:40] Manually added the key, I'll see what happens after restarting the power manager. [20:41] Is there a way to force a config reload without rebooting? [20:43] jmagder: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingGNOMEPowerManager#Finding%20out%20why%20suspend%20or%20hibernate%20aren%27t%20offered ? [20:47] om26er: That didn't work. :P [21:10] Python broken somehow ?! [21:20] Looks like hal-device | grep suspend has: power_management.can_suspend = false (bool) [21:21] dupondje: if you mean 'from gi.repository import GObject' -> error then yes [21:22] any bugreport on it yet ?
