| om26er | does grub in maverick support btrfs? | 10:05 |
| Jordan_U | om26er: No, there are patches available but their being held up by legal issues (which is what has been holding up btrfs support in grub2 for almost a year). | 10:07 |
| Jordan_U | om26er: You can still use a btrfs / with an extn /boot though. | 10:09 |
| om26er | using already.. was about to reinstall maverick so thought this time /boot on btrfs | 10:09 |
| vish | om26er: living on the edge, eh? ;) | 10:37 |
| om26er | vish, hehe yep ;) | 10:39 |
| om26er | the fact: btrfs performace is way faster than ext4 on my netbook but no difference on the PC | 10:41 |
| om26er | anyone: I didnot find any bug for nautilus being slow.. is it a bug in nautilus or somewhere else? | 10:42 |
| vish | om26er: was nautilus ever fast? | 10:42 |
| om26er | vish, its worse in Maverick | 10:43 |
| om26er | I think its a gtk bug | 10:47 |
| BUGabundo_remote | mew | 11:07 |
| BUGabundo_remote | gtk bug continues | 11:08 |
| BUGabundo_remote | and its getting work | 11:08 |
| BUGabundo_remote | but did a nice find | 11:08 |
| BUGabundo_remote | the controls locations is now attached to the theme | 11:08 |
| BUGabundo_remote | so some have it on the left, and some on the right | 11:08 |
| BUGabundo_remote | om26er: its filed somewhere | 11:10 |
| BUGabundo_remote | I'm subbed to it | 11:10 |
| om26er | BUGabundo_remote, gtk? | 11:10 |
| om26er | is it reported for gtk? | 11:10 |
| om26er | try recalling the title ;) | 11:11 |
| BUGabundo_remote | om26er: actually its assing to design team | 11:30 |

| pkramerruiz | Hi everyone! | 13:17 |
| pkramerruiz | Can anyone tell me if the developers of "software-sources" have an channel-sources? | 13:17 |
| pkramerruiz | Cause I want to run the process for selecting the best Mirror server, every time before making an update to some program, for obtain more speed downloading | 13:17 |
| shadeslayer | pkramerruiz: i would hazard a guess at #ubuntu-devel | 13:18 |
| shadeslayer | or maybe the synaptic dev channel | 13:18 |
| pkramerruiz | okay Thanx | 13:18 |
| shadeslayer | but i dont know where that is ;) | 13:19 |
| pkramerruiz | ohh, there is an synaptic devel channel? | 13:19 |
| shadeslayer | pkramerruiz: idk :) | 13:19 |
| shadeslayer | google it | 13:19 |
| pkramerruiz | lol | 13:19 |
| shadeslayer | pkramerruiz: thats what i would have done :P | 13:19 |
| shadeslayer | google has all the answers ^_^ | 13:19 |
| pkramerruiz | this kind of answers too? | 13:19 |
| shadeslayer | yep | 13:20 |
| shadeslayer | google something like " Synaptic Package Manager " | 13:20 |
| shadeslayer | and it should bring you to their site.. their contact info would be listed there | 13:20 |
| pkramerruiz | ok | 13:20 |
| pkramerruiz | any other tip? | 13:20 |
| shadeslayer | pkramerruiz: see : http://www.nongnu.org/synaptic/contribute.html | 13:21 |
| shadeslayer | first link on google | 13:21 |
| shadeslayer | that would be it :P | 13:21 |
| pkramerruiz | Thanx | 13:22 |
| shadeslayer | pkramerruiz: ah theres #synaptic | 13:22 |
| pkramerruiz | Okay, I will post my question there | 13:23 |
| shadeslayer | i do heavily doubt someone will answer... but still worth a shot | 13:23 |

| BUGabundo_remote | pkramerruiz: ping mvo | 13:24 |
| mvo | pkramerruiz: you can use the "mirror" method in apt, try: | 13:24 |
| mvo | deb mirror://mirrors.ubuntu.com/mirrors.txt maverick main restricted universe | 13:24 |
| pkramerruiz | sudo ping deb mirror://mirrors.ubuntu.com/mirrors.txt maverick main restricted universe?? | 13:25 |
| shadeslayer | hehe :P | 13:25 |
| shadeslayer | pkramerruiz: no need for sudo | 13:26 |
| pkramerruiz | okay | 13:26 |
| shadeslayer | and lose the deb and stuff after maverick | 13:26 |
| om26er | so client side window decoration is again postponed? | 13:26 |
| pkramerruiz | and then? | 13:26 |
| shadeslayer | ohhhh | 13:26 |
| shadeslayer | wait... mvo whats that? | 13:26 |
| shadeslayer | .txt? | 13:26 |
| pkramerruiz | patrick@patrick-laptop:~$ ping deb mirror://mirrors.ubuntu.com/mirrors.txt maverick main restricted universe | 13:26 |
| pkramerruiz | ping: unknown host deb | 13:26 |
| pkramerruiz | patrick@patrick-laptop:~$ | 13:26 |
| shadeslayer | i have never seen that magic before | 13:26 |
| shadeslayer | pkramerruiz: hold on | 13:27 |
| shadeslayer | oho | 13:27 |
| shadeslayer | mvo: that is awesome | 13:27 |
| mvo | shadeslayer: its a new thing that can be put into sources.list | 13:27 |
| pkramerruiz | for sure | 13:27 |
| mvo | shadeslayer: the server will send you a list of mirrors on each apt-get update | 13:28 |
| mvo | pkramerruiz: no need for sudo or ping, it just needs to go into sources.list as the top lines | 13:28 |
| pkramerruiz | you mean I should put deb mirror://mirrors.ubuntu.com/mirrors.txt maverick main restricted universe in the sources.list? | 13:28 |
| pkramerruiz | okay, but what if Im using karmic? | 13:28 |
| om26er | BUGabundo_remote, did you find the bug report :0 | 13:29 |
| pkramerruiz | mvo: this list of mirrors, for what is this prupossed? | 13:29 |
| shadeslayer | mvo: ok, so i put that on the top of my sources.list ? | 13:29 |
| shadeslayer | and remove the rest of the lines i dont need? | 13:30 |
| mvo | pkramerruiz: I'm not sure if it will work in karmic, but you can give it a try. obviously replace maverick with karmic :) | 13:30 |
| mvo | shadeslayer: just putting it on top should be enough | 13:30 |
| pkramerruiz | yeah yeah, but should I delete the rest of karmic's main servers? | 13:30 |
| mvo | shadeslayer: you can remove the other ones, but by default apt (and synaptic and update-manager and friends) will use the first one, so the mirror stuff | 13:31 |
| shadeslayer | seems slooow :( | 13:31 |
| BUGabundo_remote | om26er: I can barelly use my laptop | 13:31 |
| mvo | pkramerruiz: you can, but you don't need to | 13:31 |
| BUGabundo_remote | itssss ooo slow | 13:31 |
| shadeslayer | im getting 7 KBps | 13:31 |
| BUGabundo_remote | so slow, I don't dare opening kmail | 13:31 |
| mvo | shadeslayer: oh :/ so its not making a good decision on the server? thats bad | 13:31 |
| mvo | shadeslayer: cat /var/lib/apt/mirrors/mirrors.ubuntu.com_mirrors.txt | 13:31 |
| shadeslayer | mvo: i would hazard a guess at that.. yes | 13:31 |
| mvo | shadeslayer: that will tell you which it got | 13:31 |
| shadeslayer | http://ftp.iitm.ac.in/ubuntu/ | 13:31 |
| shadeslayer | which i think is the slowest of the lot | 13:32 |
| mvo | :/ | 13:32 |
| shadeslayer | http://ubuntuarchive.hnsdc.com/ubuntu/ << is the second one, which is fastest | 13:32 |
| pkramerruiz | I do not understand what is the purpose of this file?! | 13:32 |
| shadeslayer | pkramerruiz: ok so it figures out which mirror is fastest for you and uses that | 13:33 |
| shadeslayer | exactly what you wanted | 13:33 |
| pkramerruiz | sure? | 13:33 |
| shadeslayer | but it seems to be borked here :p | 13:33 |
| shadeslayer | on maverick i.e | 13:33 |
| pkramerruiz | no other command to execute the process of finding the fastest mirror server? I distrust this method with the txt | 13:35 |
| shadeslayer | not that i know of, except using the synaptic method | 13:35 |
| shadeslayer | maybe mvo has dark magic under his sleeve | 13:36 |
| pkramerruiz | :-D | 13:36 |
| pkramerruiz | maybe | 13:36 |
| shadeslayer | mvo: i guess the .txt stuff is WIP ? | 13:37 |
| mvo | shadeslayer: yeah, its not prefect yet | 13:37 |
| mvo | shadeslayer: but feedback is welcome | 13:37 |
| shadeslayer | well.. it chooses wrong mirror :P | 13:38 |
| shadeslayer | thats all i care about eventually :D | 13:38 |
| shadeslayer | mvo: how do establish which mirror is fastest ? you ping each country mirror? | 13:42 |
| shadeslayer | lp++ for giving me 300 KBps of bandwidth | 13:42 |
| shadeslayer | mvo: btw heard of deb deltas? | 13:44 |
| mvo | shadeslayer: I'm not that familiar with the server side, but basicly I think that the way it works | 13:45 |

| Bleeding_Edge | Hello. I have been having periodic system hang issues on my maverick machine. I somehow think that it is related to my bluetooth keyboard and mouse but not sure. Can someone help me diagnose | 14:09 |
| om26er | !netconsole | 14:13 |
| Bleeding_Edge | I can't boot with any kernel newer than 2.6.34-5. All of the newer kernels fail to start X and just go into a non-responsive state. Could someone please help diagnose? Thanks. | 14:15 |
| om26er | Bleeding_Edge, tried live cd? | 14:16 |
| Bleeding_Edge | No. I have it installed and everytime a new kernel update comes up, I put it in and try. Haven't been successful yet. | 14:18 |
| Bleeding_Edge | I have been having periodic system hanging issues on my maverick machine. I think that it is related to my bluetooth keyboard and mouse but not sure. Can someone help me diagnose? Thanks | 15:01 |
| om26er | Bleeding_Edge, follow this procedure and get the logs before the hang... and attach it to a bug report: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Netconsole?action=show&redirect=KernelTeam/Netconsole | 15:07 |
| Bleeding_Edge | Trouble with the hang is that it is completely unpredictable. I sometimes have uptimes in the order of days and other times in the order of minutes. I can follow this procedure to submit the bug. Any comments on the newer kernels not initializing X and dying? | 15:10 |

| mxe5 | Hi - Where's the best place to information on the next Ubuntu release ? Is it Maverick ? | 20:18 |
| charlie-tca | mxe5: yes, it is maverick | 20:20 |
| Pici | mxe5: and here would be that place. | 20:21 |
| mxe5 | Ah found this - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MaverickReleaseSchedule and - Could someone suggest a site that would list major new bits n pieces it will have over the 10.04 release ? | 20:26 |
| mxe5 | Better hardware support I assume etc. etc. ? | 20:27 |
| charlie-tca | there is this, that updates with each milestone - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MaverickMeerkat/TechnicalOverview | 20:28 |
| charlie-tca | There are also blueprints in launchpad, blogs, etc scattered all over | 20:28 |
| Pici | The blueprints would probably be the best place to look for stuff. | 20:29 |
| charlie-tca | But... there is no one place to look at all the changes coming without digging a little bit | 20:30 |
| mxe5 | charlie-tca: That's good starting point - Thanks | 20:30 |
| mxe5 | If I was I trying out the Alpha and have questions - This would be a good channel ? | 20:31 |
| charlie-tca | This is the correct channel for maverick questions, yes | 20:32 |
| Pici | !topic | 20:32 |
| ubottu | Please read the channel topic whenever you enter, as it contains important information. To view it at any time after joining, simply type /topic | 20:32 |
| mxe5 | Someone in the regular support Ubuntu channel said the ubuntu+1 channel is for next release questions correct? | 20:32 |
| mxe5 | ok cool Thanks | 20:33 |
| Pici | mxe5: Thats this channel, yes. | 20:33 |
| mxe5 | Pici: THanks | 20:33 |
| mxe5 | I have been waffling back an forth on what name or id want to keep for using the IRC - Is it best to register a name or does it matter that much ? | 20:36 |
| charlie-tca | Registering the name allows you to have that name everytime you use IRC. Not registering means you may not get the same name each time | 20:37 |
| charlie-tca | more information - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat#Registration | 20:39 |
| mxe5 | charlie-tca: Ok - so I guess one advantage would be that the more you use IRC or occasionally answer questions that you might know - you would become more recognizable - True statement ? | 20:43 |
| charlie-tca | true | 20:43 |
| mxe5 | I do see some id's allot of the time in the regular ubuntu support IRC and value what suggestions, help, or advice they might offer. | 20:45 |
| mxe5 | charlie-tca: thanks - that clears up what I needed to know - Will be back when have time to give the new 10.10 a spin .... | 20:46 |
| charlie-tca | You are welcome | 20:46 |
| duffydack | is it btrfs thats slow or just the fact im using an alpha os.... | 21:11 |
| duffydack | I have not tried it with ext4 yet, I thought I`d jump right in and use bt, but its quite slow at disk stuff, like now I`m just installing some apps and its taking a lot longer than I`m used to for its configuring, setting up etc. The install itself took an AGE as well.. | 21:12 |
| yofel | duffydack: from what I hear btrfs seems to be quite slow, especially with dpkg | 21:22 |
