micahgdrew212: poeple post lots of crazy things on forums :)03:16
drew212lol, true true03:16
drew212it looked legit, to me03:17
drew212i'm still having trouble finding packages, mainly the correct ones03:17
micahgdrew212: ask :)03:17
drew212did i have the right problem though?03:18
micahgdrew212: it's not true either what the poster posted...03:20
micahgthere was a symlink missing but I thought that was fixed03:20
micahgs/poster/reporter03:20
drew212alright03:20
micahgalso, unless the reporter enabled the partner repo, they'd have the old java plugin from karmic still03:21
drew212i noticed he didn't have any IcedTeaPlugin.so in his profile_default_pluginreg.dat.txt03:22
micahgdrew212: he said explicitely he's using sun java :)03:22
micahgthat was the other point :)03:23
drew212yeah, but shouldn't he be using icedtea?03:25
micahgdrew212: that's up to the user03:25
drew212so what did i tell him to install? lol03:26
drew212i mean, i know what it is, but why isn't that the correct thing to install?03:26
micahgthe runtime environment for java which is a dependency of the plugin03:26
micahgdrew212: you said install the jre instead of the plugin03:27
drew212ok... so i'm confused as what to do now, surprise surprise =P03:29
micahgdrew212: you can ask the user for his version of sun-java6-plugin03:30
micahgapt-cache policy sun-java6-plugin03:30
drew212thanks micahg, i gotta get doing some HW, i'm overloaded with classes, and i took an honors addon that requires a finished project by the end of the semester, and we have some android phones to make some apps for =)!03:34

nigelbkermic & vish: Nice job with the cheese hook :)08:27
KE1HAGot a question all. Fresh install, did updates / upgrades via cmd line. The the upgrade manager then tells me I have Kernel update to do. I check with apt-get, nadda, reloaded update manager, same results, Kernel update needed. Is normal behavior?08:27
persiaDid you have update-manager check again?08:29
persiasometimes it's cache is out of date08:30
KE1HAYep, same thing, closed it, opened again, same results.08:31
KE1HAit's fer the 32-24 kernel, anyway, just wanted to check.08:32
persiaClose/Open doesn't do it.  You have to manually press "Check" to get the cache up-to-date (or wait some random amount of time which could be a week)08:33
KE1HApersia:  sri, yes, I hit the reload (Check) on restart was the same.08:38
persiaDunno then.08:39
KE1HAIn any case, it's installing, it's just odd that apt didn't pick it up.08:39
vishkermiac:  <nigelb> kermic & vish: Nice job with the cheese hook :)08:44
vishactually kermiac's 3 kids helped the most! ;)08:44
kermiachaha08:44
kermiacthanks nigelb, vish :)08:44
vishkermiac: np, thanks. its been uploaded too :)08:45

kermiacanyone else getting 'The Google Maps API server rejected your request. The "client" parameter specified in the request is invalid.' on LP?08:47
vishkermiac: o/08:47
kermiacvish: thanks mate, that means it's not just me ;)08:47
vishheh , i thought,*i* was special !08:47
kermiachaha, that's what I was thinking08:48
kermiacvish: you said the cheese hook was uploaded now, should I mark bug 573124 fix released?08:49
ubot2Launchpad bug 573124 in cheese (Ubuntu) "Make cheese debugging log attach as a .log file (affects: 1) (heat: 35)" [Wishlist,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/57312408:49
vishkermiac: nah, the lp janitor will do it automatically, it might be waiting for the freeze to get published08:49
kermiacok vish, I thought having lp bug number the changelog should handle it automatically... I'll leave it alone & let it take care of itself :)08:51
vishkermiac: yeah , it just got merged a half hr ago. will prolly take a bit more time :)08:54

einstein1969Hi to all,  I am following a bug (623450) on "zenity" and "gnome system monitor". But it's' been placed in state "invalid". Now I have found a way to reproduce and I updated the bug. With this state, will ' considered?10:45
persiabug #62345010:47
ubot2Launchpad bug 623450 in zenity (Ubuntu) "file selection on /dev returns wrong filename (affects: 2) (heat: 12)" [Low,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/62345010:47
persiaeinstein1969, Yep.  The Ubuntu policy is that you can reset to "New" if you can reproduce.10:48
persiaYou want to get someone else to also do so to get from new to Confirmed10:48
persia(normally you could confirm someone else's bug, but once it's invalid, it's good to get a couple instances just to be sure)10:48
persiaAh, you and muflone can both reproduce with those steps, then yes, "Confirmed" would be correct.10:49
persiaAnyone familiar with this software, and have suggestions to help einstein1969 troubleshoot deeper?10:50
einstein1969thanks persia :)10:53
jfiI don't if I miss a point, but I don't reproduce with maverick10:57
einstein1969jfi: this bug is on Lucid (LTS). It'is important to reproduce in Maverick?11:00
jfijust tested with lucid, it fails in a different manner for, the selection is not visible and it always returns /dev/zero11:01
jfieinstein1969, I guess it may help to know that it is fixed in a more recent release11:02
einstein1969thanks jfi11:04
jfiI have added a comment and my vote11:05
jfieinstein1969, as 3 guys reproduce this issue, I guess that you can turn the bug state to 'confirmed' or at least 'new'11:10
einstein1969ok jfi11:13
persia"confirmed".11:14
persiaNow it needs some more investigation to understand the cause in the code.11:15

visherr, not yet! ;p21:52
vishdevildante: odd that the fonts for the comments are larger!  HUGE!21:53
vishlike the comments need even more attention ;p21:53
jfiI wonder if I can apply to https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-typeface-interest without a real reason except curiosity:)21:53
devildantevish: they should make them grow with the commenter's whining :p21:53
penguin42odd, I just went to launchpad.net and got a 'The Google Maps API server rejected your request' error21:57
jfipenguin42, I have this issue too, that's boring21:58
penguin42nod, if it doesn't fix itself I'll go and ask on launchpad21:58
jfiI have "The "client" parameter specified in the request is invalid" in addition to the first sentence21:59
