[00:00] Virtualbox and a Sun Microsystems version, probably the last one, since my distro. However even Virtualbox's that are about a year old, are still good. [00:00] yeh, I use kvm - it doesn't like 3d stuff [00:02] penguin42: this version is slightly later than what I used before upgrading the distro, so not that long ago. anyway 3.1.8 is the version. Also no KVM for me on here, since this computer does not do hardware virtaulization.

[01:06] it's only one of my 2 machines [01:09] nice... nautilus not opening [01:11] hmm killing the pid seems to spawn another nautilus [01:11] It has been like that for quite awhile [01:13] just started for me [01:13] this issue I mean [01:13] Ah. I was talking about killing nautilus bringing it back] [01:13] I'm assuming it isn't meant to [01:14] IdleOne, could be the gnome-session process bring it back up [01:15] * shadeslayer pokes his 150 MB ppa upload [01:15] whatever, doesn't really bother me so much === JMS is now known as JoeMaverickSett [01:15] I find it quite useful when nautilus memory leaks [01:18] 3;2~ [01:18] strange thing is Places > Home Folder is now working again [01:18] heh [01:18] yay for problems that fix themselves [01:19] uptime 11 days, think I should reboot? [01:22] ooh - my bug goes if I remove the appmenu-gtk package [01:24] right, time for bed [02:07] I am getting the following when trying to update: [02:07] This error could be caused by required additional software packages which are missing or not installable. Furthermore there could be a conflict between software packages which are not allowed to be installed at the same time. [02:07] Rebooting was a bad idea :( === bacchus is now known as IdleOne1 [02:16] hey all, just upgraded to 10.10 and now setting swappiness appears to have no affect as after setting it to 0 and flushing swap space it is still sending half of the used memory to swap [02:17] also it appears that even though i am using only 328M of memory out of 2G it will not let me flush swapspace more than a few times [03:09] Looks like ure is the openoffice stopper / [03:09] ? [03:12] do drivers exist to run ati radeon video cards now [03:15] Dmstrdj: Yes, but it depends on the exact model and whether you want open or proprietary drivers. [03:29] Jordan_U: well its x1950 pro and i have tried the prop drivers on 10.04 already [03:29] Jordan_U: no open drivers worked at all [04:13] !nox [04:13] To start your system in text-only mode append 'text' (without the quotes) to the kernel line in the grub menu.

[20:15] CaptainKnots: Yep [20:15] bothering [20:15] same [20:15] eh> [20:16] over the Page one? [20:16] I wonder if it does that on a fresh install penguin42 [20:16] seem so to be related to some user specific config [20:16] I can't close it from task bar [20:16] WaY: the upper bar [20:16] and syncdaemon is still eating all io time [20:16] ohhhh [20:16] CaptainKnots: Dunno [20:16] you can configure that page [20:16] as another desktop [20:16] but you can't remove it [20:16] the only option you have over the bar is to unlock it [20:17] found it [20:17] WaY: right click on desktop [20:17] you can add also some widgets when you unlock it but you can't remove it [20:17] penguin42: I'm gonna try a fresh install of maverick on my desktop later....I'll let you know if thatr still happens [20:17] that* [20:17] CaptainKnots: It's actually my least important bug I'm seeing :-) [20:17] WaY: Desktop Settings > Activity > Type : Desktop [20:17] what else shadeslayer :D [20:17] penguin42: what other bugs did you find?

I have an ati mobility hd 4670, and I dont need to install fglrx anymore. compiz runs very smooth, I get full 3d acceleration, and hd playback is seamless. before, even with fglrx, it was pretty messy, and even sd playback was choppy on an i7 with 8gb of ram [20:23] oh and also it doesn't disable networking everytime I hibernate anymore [20:23] CaptainKnots: I've been running the open source driver since I got this machine and put Lucid on it [20:24] CaptainKnots: With an HD4350 - but I do seem to be able to trigger a bunch of bugs in Radeon code [20:24] well my card doesnt play nice with the open source driver....I get tons of artifacting [20:25] laptop ati cards are far from easy to get working properly in any linux distro, especially newer cards [20:25] I have installed indicator-datetime, but the datetime indicator doesn't appear in the panel. is there a option for enabling/disabling it or is it a bug? [20:25] anyone has the repository address for Adobe Flash Player Plugin [20:25] CaptainKnots: I was running lucid with xorg-edgers and found I could run assaultcube OK, but on Maverick with the standard libraries it has severe problems - so I don't know whether to try edgers again or if it's actually a regression [20:26] penguin42: you could always try it, and revert if necessary [20:26] yeh, reverting it gets a bit messy [20:28] I'm running off a live USB of Maverick M Alpha 2 and it still needs additional apps added to it. [20:29] and the USB isn't set to persistent [20:29] so I lose everything with I boot up [20:30] so is there anyway to properly solve this with a usb creator software. [20:32] * penguin42 tries to figure out how to build a package with debug symbols [20:33] can see it has the builds in the build directory but hasn't produced any .debs [20:46] damn it [20:46] some how killed my X [20:47] did the usual safe upgrades [20:47] stop doing that! ;-p [20:47] some X stuff got in [20:47] now it won't boot fine :( [20:47] * BUGabundo tickels crimsun_ some more [20:50] BUGabundo: buy other hardware ;-P === JanC_ is now known as JanC [20:54] bdrung: I like nvidia [20:54] doesn't give me much trouble [20:54] other then one month per devel cicle [20:54] BUGabundo: ati with the free driver doesn't give much trouble. nvidia gave me enough trouble [20:55] I can't even make my other laptop with ATI to LCD via hdmi [20:56] IMHO maverick is having a whole bunch of radeon issues [21:03] so what's the current method to make the blob work?

I removed the ppa and now i need to run an apt-get install -f to fix dependencies which is pulling a bunch of kde packages to be installed. I don't want this. How do I remove these dependencies ?

Which one were you using? [22:59] jpds: university mirror, ftp-stud.hs-esslingen.de [22:59] Ah. [22:59] EliteHunters: for downloaded .debs you have to either use 'dpkg -i' or gdebi [23:00] yofel: It's a good idea to report mirror problems in #ubuntu-mirrors. [23:01] yofel:- then what would be the correct cmd line statement to type? [23:01] well, it's back up already, so no point [23:02] EliteHunters: sudo dpkg -i *.deb where *.deb is your .deb file [23:02] but at least for the ubuntu installer the package needs a working internet connection to work, not sure what the adobe one does [23:05] its telling me that the dpkg-i cmd not found [23:05] the file it there in the dl folder [23:05] my internet is up and running [23:06] EliteHunters: 'dpkg -i' note the space in between [23:06] my konsole cmd line was "sudo dpkg -i install_flash_player_10_linux.deb [23:07] then 'dpkg-i cmd not found' doesn't make sense [23:07] now it's telling me that the package isn't found [23:08] ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo dpkg -i install_flash_player_10_linux.deb [23:08] dpkg: error processing install_flash_player_10_linux.deb (--install): [23:08] cannot access archive: No such file or directory [23:08] Errors were encountered while processing: [23:08] install_flash_player_10_linux.deb [23:09] EliteHunters: Just double click the .deb file.

[23:17] jordan_U: Any other option that I can try? [23:18] EliteHunters: How big is the flash drive? It might be better in general to just do a standard install. [23:19] well I'm using a 1GB flash drive and yes I could install it on the system (laptop), but I wanted the option to test drive it like this [23:22] and plus Jordan_U, soon I'll have to wipe this drive and install Maverick M Alpha 3 [23:23] EliteHunters: I meant that if it were a 3 or 4 GIG flash drive you could do a full normal Ubuntu install to the flash drive itself. [23:23] true [23:24] I could've dl the DVD iso [23:24] perhaps it is still and option [23:24] I just have to get a larger flash drive [23:24] shouldn't be much of a problem [23:24] not at all [23:25] but nevertheless, I'm still try to troubleshoot the problem at hand with the adobe flash plugin [23:25] cause firefox dl well using the sudo apt-get [23:26] and skype I had to use the software management and then sudo apt-get [23:26] and thoes two worked well [23:26] it's just this one thus far [23:26] !dvd [23:26] For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/musicvideophotos/C/video.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats [23:26] !daily [23:26] Daily builds of the CD images of the current development version of Ubuntu are available at http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily/current/ and http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ [23:27] Ohh, even Nmap installed well using the sudo apt-get Jordan_U [23:27] EliteHunters: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/dvd/current/ still there [23:27] I'll aim for the DVD iso of Maverick M Alpha 3 [23:28] why? [23:28] just trying to get the one on the flash drive install apps without problems [23:28] Alpha 2 is working well [23:29] just some problems with installing adobe plugin [23:29] the deb package isn't installing [23:29] not from konsole [23:29] and not from the package itself [23:31] So I'm looking for some help with that problem [23:34] if anyone can help, thanks. === SolidLiq is now known as solid_liq [23:43] * Jordan_U can't wait untill compressed btrfs is used on the LiveCD's because then *real* persistance will be possible. [23:43] But that won't be for a while, if ever. [23:50] Jordan_U, compressed btrfs on LiveCD? To make them able to ship more in 700MB? [23:51] Daekdroom: No, the CD's are already compressed with squashfs (and btrfs compression will likely never be as good as squashfs as that's its sole purpose). [23:52] Daekdroom: The advantage from btrfs is that you would still be able to get a lot of compression (hopefully enough not to be a noticeable regression from squashfs) but you could extend the btrfs filesystem from the CD to another (writeable) device. [23:55] oh that would be kind of nice, although that could be done with aufs at the moment? [23:55] Daekdroom: Currently with "persistance" when any file is modified the entire file is copied to the casper-rw partition. That's inneficient with large files and small changes, and more importantly the changed / added files are only recognised after the kenel is loaded. So with persistance you can't upgrade the kernel (even though the system will let you install the newer package without complaining) [23:57] Even more cool is that if you wanted to "install" this modified system you could simply use btrfs tools to migrate the entire filesytem to a hard drive. [23:58] penguin42: I hope that explains some of why btrfs would be far superior to what we have now with aufs :) [23:59] I've heard that story about copying the whole file and I don't quite get it [23:59] normally on any upgrade the whole file gets rewritten anyway
