| yofel | hm, shouldn't file roller have an application menu entry? it does seem to have a .desktop file, but I don't see it in the Applications menu here in kde | 00:22 |
| yofel | (the debian menu entry is there) | 00:23 |
| Daekdroom | yofel, isn't there a menu editor program in which you can disable those entries? | 00:25 |
| Pici | I think its hidden by default. | 00:29 |
| yofel | hm, what's the name of the gnome menu editor? I can't find it anywhere in the kde menu editor | 00:30 |

| phillw | Hi good people, whilst I'm sure I have seen this before, is there still usb 1.1 support in the new kernel? | 02:02 |
| h00k | phillw: I would assume, yeah | 02:19 |
| h00k | phillw: I don't know for sure, but I'd think so. | 02:19 |
| phillw | hmm, yeah it does appear to, but a 1.1 hard drive (external device) is failing as ehci_hcd (the usb 2?) is not allowing the ohci (1.1 ?) to have a try :-\ | 02:21 |
| DanaG | Argh, brightness control doesn't work on Intel OR fglrx on Maverick! | 02:22 |
| DanaG | http://pastebin.com/XizgXJmd | 02:22 |
| DanaG | that's on fglrx. | 02:22 |
| DanaG | It randomly starts saying "no hardware support" | 02:24 |
| h00k | DanaG: it works here on mavericks :( | 02:24 |
| h00k | The notify-osd indicator isn't correct, however | 02:24 |
| Pici | Works with my ati open drivers here. | 02:25 |
| DanaG | Hmm, for me, brightness has NEVER worked with the open drivers. | 02:25 |
| DanaG | No xrandr brightness support. | 02:25 |
| DanaG | - executing /usr/sbin/gnome-power-backlight-helper --get-brightness retval: 0 - failed to set using xrandr, falling back to HAL - no hardware support | 02:27 |
| DanaG | Wait, how the heck is "helper" "using HAL"? | 02:27 |
| DanaG | Or rather, xrandr? | 02:27 |
| DanaG | Helper doesn't use xrandr.... that's bogus. the xrandr module uses xrandr. | 02:28 |
| DanaG | Helper uses /sys/class/backlight directly! | 02:28 |

| DanaG | It works a few times, then randomly decides to quit working. | 02:40 |

| DanaG | arg | 02:41 |
| DanaG | stupid touchpad scroll. | 02:42 |
| DanaG | And stupid g-p-m. | 02:42 |
| DanaG | It uses the gpm backlight helper (that uses hardcoded paths in /sys/class/backlight, and by the way, happens to miss "samsung")... and then complains that "setting brightness using xrandr failed". | 02:42 |
| DanaG | That makes no sense... how can setting via xrandr fail, when that's not even what it's trying to use? | 02:42 |
| DanaG | That's like saying "failed to find ice cream in the freezer" when you walked over to the cabinets and pulled out a box of cereal. | 02:43 |
| DanaG | Or something like that. | 02:44 |
| DanaG | Or rather, it's like complaining about "ice cream" in "freezer" when you look for, and don't find, the cereal. | 02:45 |
| DanaG | great, now I'm craving ice cream. | 02:46 |
| DanaG | Okay, now it's even weirder: it seems the brightness controls only break exactly when I hit minimum or maximum brightness. | 03:01 |
| KukuNut | is kubuntu-netbook iso dead? last update was 7/7 | 03:24 |

| JontheEchidna | KukuNut: it has been incorporated into the regular iso, and will automatically configure a Kubuntu Netbook install if it detects you are on a netbook. You can change this after the install by changing the workspace type in the Workspace module of System Settings | 03:36 |

| bblaze | hey, this is my first time testing and i'm a bit confused by the output after when running dist-upgrade - http://nopaste.info/4564a7b527.html | 14:28 |
| bblaze | I do understand what it says, just wondering if anyone could explain to me why that happens. | 14:28 |
| Pici | bblaze: Its just the current state of the archives. Usually in cases like that I just hit 'n' until it gives me a solution that leaves all affected packages unupgraded. | 14:31 |
| Pici | Which in this case would end up upgrading nothing. | 14:31 |

| JoshuaL | Ian_corne, ati always releases an driver for ubuntu just before release | 21:08 |
| JoshuaL | thats what i always experienced when i had ati | 21:08 |
| JoshuaL | thats why i switched to nvidia :) | 21:08 |
| DrHalan | at least they support open source drivers | 21:09 |
| JoshuaL | Question, what is the best way to update your system in ubuntu+1, via the update-manager (which seems to eat a lot of cpu when starting lately) or via apt-get update? | 21:09 |
| mvo | JoshuaL: the startup problem is a cairo bug/problem | 21:10 |
| yofel | JoshuaL: doesn't matter, all should work | 21:10 |
| mvo | if you switch your theme it should go away (or at least get massively better) | 21:10 |
| JoshuaL | yofel, and what if it asks for partial upgrade? | 21:10 |
| yofel | JoshuaL: errr, BAD, there's a forum thread with a good explenation about that, let me look for it | 21:11 |
| Ian_corne | JoshuaL: I stick with ati, they OS driver is miles better | 21:11 |
| DrHalan | JoshuaL: you have to use apt-get dist-upgrade | 21:11 |
| JoshuaL | yofel, i usually ignore it and wait a day lol | 21:11 |
| Ian_corne | and the hardware/cost is better | 21:11 |
