[00:00] <Pertheria> hey, with 10.10, is there a known issue where the workspace switcher doesnt show the preview? I thought in all the previous versions it was on by default?
[00:00] <Pertheria> (so you can see if something in window changed by glancing at taskbar's mini-icons )
[00:02] <Pertheria> and it is already added to the bar, so dont need to add workspace
[00:07] <RBecker> well then, my netbook decided to suicide
[00:09] <bp0> no good
[00:09] <bp0> did you try to install the nvidia driver again
[00:10] <RBecker> running now
[00:10] <RBecker> the installer is i mean
[00:10] <RBecker> ugh, fucker netbook\
[00:10] <AndrewMC> !language | RBecker
[00:11] <RBecker> sorry
[00:11] <thechitow> How can I try unity, I installed the package?
[00:11] <RBecker> bp0: ERROR: Unable to create `/usr/lib/nvidia-current/xorg/nvidia_drv.so` for copying (No such file or directory)
[00:13] <RBecker> ok, I gotta go eat, bbs
[00:13] <Pertheria> is there any simple reason why installing the ati driver from ubuntu software center would give a kernel includes do not match current kernel, they are versioned as "" instead of 2.6.34-22-generic ?
[00:14] <Pertheria> (and fail obviously)
[00:15] <Pertheria> actually, error is that utsrelease.h no exist
[00:19] <sevenseeker> howdy folks, just wanted to say something that is not said enough... great work guys, I had some probs, got help, fixed, and I have an AWESOME system, thanks again
[00:20] <Pertheria> come make my system work seven:P
[00:20] <sevenseeker> heh :)
[00:20] <sevenseeker> what probs you having?
[00:21] <Pertheria> cant install ati drivers, neither ones from ati's site, nor from software tool.. the compile/installer complains that kernel include versions arent set
[00:21] <Pertheria> they are blank
[00:22] <Pertheria> so the driver wont install hehe
[00:22] <sevenseeker> same here, I just am using the OSS radeon drivers for now
[00:22] <sevenseeker> that required me to completely uninstall fglrx*
[00:22] <Pertheria> oh fun
[00:22] <sevenseeker> not bad really
[00:23] <sevenseeker> they take up uneeded space if not utilized
[00:23] <sevenseeker> dpkg -l | grep -i fglrx
[00:23] <sevenseeker> that will tell you what is installed btw
[00:23] <Pertheria> thanks :)
[00:23] <sevenseeker> np, btw, what ati card do you have?
[00:23] <Pertheria> 5970
[00:24] <sevenseeker> ok, mine is the 4650
[00:24] <sevenseeker> you may not get 3d with a 5k series
[00:24] <sevenseeker> but you should have normal 2d resolutions
[00:25] <sevenseeker> honestly I wouldn't recommend 3d anyway, even with the latest gl extensions (mesa) installed, I get a lot of screen nastiness in fullscreen opengl apps (like Glest)
[00:25] <Pertheria> i was just wanting to play with compiz, which requires 3d :)
[00:25] <sevenseeker> ATI is working on the kernel compat issues, so by 10.10 release I am told it will be bueno
[00:25] <sevenseeker> :( sorry, me too
[00:25] <sevenseeker> compiz is the shiznit lol
[00:25] <Pertheria> hehe
[00:26] <Pertheria> i've never used it
[00:26] <Daekdroom> All I wanted 3D for is light gaming
[00:26] <Pertheria> ah well, thats what we get for playing around with a beta i guess :)
[00:26] <sevenseeker> very true, very true
[00:27] <Pertheria> only 20 days left, not too worried about it
[00:28]  * Pertheria pokes update-grub .. run darn you!
[00:32] <thechitow> How can I try unity, I installed the package?
[00:38] <bjsnider> bp0, the nvidia blob with the bugfix is now going into the x-updates ppa
[00:40] <bp0> super
[01:00] <bp0> RBecker, I'm out, since you couldn't get the new nvidia drivers installed, try removing the old ones like this: http://fedorasolved.org/video-solutions/remove-nvidia-installer
[01:00] <bp0> then use the ones from that ppa that bjsnider mentioned
[01:00] <bp0> good luck
[01:27] <pecos> does prelink and/or preload have sense on Ubuntu maverick...?
[01:29] <pecos> does prelink and/or preload have sense on Ubuntu maverick...?
[01:44] <pecos> #ubuntu
[02:57] <bp0> bjsnider, somethings up with the nvidia driver in that ppa
[02:58] <bp0> it builds modules called nvidia and nvidia_current
[02:58] <bp0> uses nvidia, what is the nvidia_current module for?
[02:59] <bp0> when you open the additional drivers app, it shows that nvidia_current is active but not in use
[02:59] <bp0> and lspci -v | grep nvidia shows
[03:00] <bp0> 	Kernel driver in use: nvidia \n Kernel modules: nvidia-current, nouveau, nvidiafb
[03:21] <bjsnider> bp0, the changes in the proprietary drivers were brought over from mandriva to ubuntu. the modules all have different names so they can all be installed at once without overwriting each other
[03:21] <bjsnider> keep in mind that the regular ubuntu packages are all like the ones in that ppa
[03:23] <guccipilot> I upgraded from 10.04 to 10.10 today and it doesn't boot ino ubuntu
[03:24] <guccipilot> I get codec 0 is not valid [0xfe0000] as well as pulseaudio configured for per user sessions with an orange star next to it
[03:24] <bp0> alright
[03:24] <guccipilot> What do i do to get it to boot i don't care about codecs or sound for that matter
[03:26] <guccipilot> There are 4 codec errors 18.191789, 18.199574, 18.207245, 18.219473
[03:26] <guccipilot> It says since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to n upstart job you may also use the start(8) utility
[03:28] <guccipilot> 218 ppl here and no1 can help me
[03:32] <guccipilot> It says since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to n upstart job you may also use the start(8) utility
[03:33] <guccipilot> I have no computer
[03:33] <scott_ino> guccipilot, yeah it's still beta dude.... it's possible you might get errors like that
[03:33] <scott_ino> best thing you can do is check and find people that have similar hardware
[03:46] <guccipilot> i tried removing pulseaudio... now im removing virtualbox
[03:54] <pksadiq> anybody here>
[03:54] <pksadiq> ?

[04:06] <pksadiq> is there small panel player for Rhythmbox in 10.10?
[04:07] <ChogyDan> pksadiq: is there anything in the audio control?
[04:08] <ChogyDan> guccipilot: I think you would need to pastebin the whole dmesg
[04:09] <guccipilot> I have no computer that works im on my samsung epic... i can't even make a live cd
[04:09] <guccipilot> I removed alsa and pulse
[04:10] <guccipilot> it boots and i get 4 errors

[04:11] <bdogg> i have no idea how to get it working
[04:11] <ChogyDan> guccipilot: it is a command
[04:11] <ChogyDan> guccipilot: first install ubuntu-desktop
[04:11] <pksadiq> not start x . but startx
[04:12] <guccipilot> I had ubuntu 10.04 and then updated today to 10.10 and it wouldn't boot
[04:12] <bdogg> Anyone usind JACK in maverick
[04:12] <guccipilot> I typed startx now what
[04:12] <ChogyDan> guccipilot: well, you are getting a sort of boot, but the gui is failing
[04:12] <pksadiq> what is the error? gucc?
[04:12] <ChogyDan> guccipilot: hit enter, see what happens
[04:13] <guccipilot> I get 4 errors...

[04:14] <guccipilot> How do i do that
[04:14] <ChogyDan> hmmmm
[04:14] <ChogyDan> I don't really know!
[04:14] <guccipilot> It says ee failed to load/ usr/lib/xorg/extra-modules/nvidia_drv.so
[04:15] <ChogyDan> guccipilot: nvidia card?
[04:15] <guccipilot> It seems like its nvidia related
[04:15] <guccipilot> So now what
[04:15] <guccipilot> Ya
[04:15] <ChogyDan> guccipilot: I would remove the nvidia drivers
[04:15] <guccipilot> How do i do that
[04:15] <guccipilot> What do i type
[04:16] <ChogyDan> guccipilot: sudo apt-get remove nvidia-* maybe
[04:16] <pksadiq> yes
[04:17] <ChogyDan> guccipilot: and then mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.not_working
[04:17] <pksadiq> use sudo before mv
[04:18] <guccipilot> It says cannot start no such file when i did the mv command
[04:18] <bdogg> isnt the command now Xorg -configure?
[04:18] <ChogyDan> guccipilot: ok, if /etc/X11/xorg.conf doesnt exist, that is fine
[04:18] <bdogg> yeah you have to tyep sudo Xorg -configure in recovery mode
[04:19] <ChogyDan> bdogg: that configures xorg?
[04:19] <guccipilot> So reboot o wait?
[04:19] <ChogyDan> guccipilot: yea, reboot, see what happens
[04:19] <bdogg> it generates a xorg file
[04:20] <guccipilot> I already removed pulseaudio virtualbox and alsa
[04:20] <bdogg> in your home directory
[04:20] <ChogyDan> guccipilot: oh yeah, install ubuntu-desktop
[04:20] <guccipilot> Virtualbox and pulse were other errors
[04:20] <bdogg> its going to be called xorg.conf.new
[04:20] <bdogg> after lucid i think
[04:20] <bdogg> the Xorg file is not used anymore
[04:20] <ChogyDan> bdogg: do you have a link explaining this?
[04:20] <bdogg> ummm...
[04:21] <bdogg> i kind of gathered it from different places
[04:21] <guccipilot> so no i just have the ubuntu logo
[04:21] <bdogg> but works for me
[04:21] <guccipilot> Like it was to boot but it doesn't
[04:21] <guccipilot> Hard drive isn't spinning or aything
[04:22] <ChogyDan> guccipilot: did you install ubuntu-desktop?

[04:26] <guccipilot> Ui held ctrl alt f1 down and nothing
[04:26] <guccipilot> The ubuntu logo is stuck
[04:26] <ChogyDan> guccipilot: try alt+sysrq+k
[04:27] <ChogyDan> guccipilot: sysrq depends on the keyboard.  mine is printscreen
[04:28] <guccipilot> Mine is too but it doesn't brng me to tty1
[04:28] <ChogyDan> guccipilot: does it do anything?
[04:28] <guccipilot> when should i press or how long should i hold it for
[04:28] <guccipilot> I got it to say sysrq sak or something but its stuck again
[04:29] <ChogyDan> guccipilot: I would try booting into recovery mode if that doesn't work
[04:29] <guccipilot> How do i do that
[04:30] <guccipilot> My drivers are being checked for errors
[04:30] <ChogyDan> guccipilot: it is one of the options at boot.  Hold shift at boot if you don't get the menu
[04:30] <guccipilot> And now its back to the waiting game
[04:30] <guccipilot> The lights stay orange they don't go white unless i ctrl alt del

[05:16] <edgy> Hi, when I use kpackagekit to install software I get a message "You have failed to provide correct authentication.
[05:16] <edgy> Please check any password" but it's not even asking me about a password, what's wrong?
[05:19] <lru> is it possible to avoid upstart in Maverick?
[05:48] <ldunn> Hi, I'm trying to install Maverick Beta, and the installer only seems to detect one of my two hard drives. It takes a long, long time to find it, as well. :/
[05:53] <ldunn> Apparently restarting the installer enough times fixes the issue.  :D
[05:58] <lru> is it possible to avoid upstart in Maverick?
[07:44] <Tetsuo55> awesome a flash update
[08:13] <vega_> lru: no

[08:43] <archer> it is said to ad a config para to fix my ca
[08:48] <archer> !kernel config
[08:59] <archer> it appears to be this one /usr/share/kernel-package/config

[09:04] <knittl> hi. menu entries are totally broken here, they only display font garbage (like a font was not found)
[09:14] <knittl> looks similar to this: http://en.dogeno.us/2010/01/fix-garbage-menu-fonts-in-evince-karmicubuntu-9-10/
[09:14] <knittl> i tried changing fonts, but it didn't help
[09:26] <archer> please
[09:26] <archer> what is the kernel config file
[09:30] <twager> archer: Have you googled for it ?
[09:36] <archer> yes
[09:36] <archer> from debian and intel forums
[09:37] <archer> it seems that integrated video cards with multiple output terminals will meet this issue
[09:37] <archer> e.g. intel xxx hd, ati xxx hd
[09:38] <archer> but i did find the kernel config ..
[09:45] <archer> can someone help me to locate the kernel config?
[09:48] <popey> archer: /boot/config-<your_kernel_version>
[09:50] <archer> thanks
[09:50] <archer> reboot now
[10:01] <archer> no good
[10:01] <archer> seems ati really drops its support
[11:40] <MarkusT> Does the Ubuntu One music store work for you? I'm trying to access it with maverick, but I can't get past the "connecting" screen. Since I can't find a bug report, I guess it's only a problem for me? How do I debug the music store integration?
[11:43] <plovs> hi! got most things working (video, flash etc), just picasa still segfaults
[11:45] <maxb> Hmm. *something*, and I can't figure out what, rewrote my /etc/hosts after an update to maverick, including the local host name against the 127.0.0.1 address
[11:45] <maxb> This is wrong, and broke my MTA
[13:03] <ItsYou> hey all
[13:10] <rohdef> is there a way to hard block openjdk?

[13:43] <Machtin> hey guys, anyone here able to help me set up my xonar DX? It somehow works, but speaker-test is anything but 5.1.. tried via "speaker-test -Dplug:surround51 -c6 -l1 -twav". another strange thing i noticed: in alsamixer it says AV200, but on the alsa page the DX has AV100
[13:45] <Machtin> i'm on kubuntu 10.10 btw.
[15:05] <bullgard4> Why is the executable file /usr/lib/klibc/bin/resume not in the default path?
[15:26] <Slasher`> !xvid
[15:30] <Slasher`> anyone know how to get xvid working in ubuntu 10.10? i can't seem to get it working no matter what player i try
[15:38] <leeb9972> hi folks, anyone help me, ive upgraded to 10.10 and now get black login screen :(
[15:39] <bullgard4> leeb9972: Can you access a virtual terminal?
[15:39] <leeb9972> yes
[15:40] <leeb9972> i had ati driver for dual monitors on 10.4, can this be the prob?
[15:40] <bullgard4> leeb9972:  Yes it can.
[15:40] <leeb9972> hmm, any ideas on how to fix
[15:40] <bullgard4> leeb9972: I would suggest that you read the dmesg output.
[15:41] <leeb9972> sorry n00b here, how do i get that
[15:42] <leeb9972> i do startx and i get lots of errors
[15:43] <bullgard4> leeb9972: In a virtual terminal: '~$ dmesg > dmesg.log20100921'. Then '~$ more dmesg.log20200921'. Read it for error messages and warnings. If you cannot find them, nopaste this file in a nopaste service.
[15:44] <bullgard4> fpr attention to would-be helpers
[15:44] <bullgard4> for
[15:46] <bullgard4> leeb9972: You should also nopaste the contents of the file /var/log/Xorg.1.log for attention of would-be helpers.
[15:46] <leeb9972> i cant
[15:47] <leeb9972> accessing here via laptop
[15:47] <leeb9972> PC is not working
[15:47] <bullgard4> leeb9972: Why can you not?
[15:48] <leeb9972> only have terminal access on pc
[15:48] <leeb9972> big black terminal screen
[15:48] <leeb9972> covers whole desktop
[15:48] <bullgard4> leeb9972:  The PC is the culprit?
[15:48] <leeb9972> yes
[15:49] <bullgard4> leeb9972:  All the operations which I suggested , you can perform on a virtual terminal of your PC.
[15:49] <leeb9972> nope sorry
[15:49] <leeb9972> thinks i reinstall 10.4 :(
[15:50] <bullgard4> leeb9972:  Why are you sorry?
[15:50] <leeb9972> lol, u can probably fix, but im a ubuntu n00b
[15:51] <bullgard4> leeb9972:  But I have given you the commands almost literally.
[15:51] <leeb9972> yep, lots off errors
[15:51] <leeb9972> i get Gtk-Warning **: cannot open display
[15:51] <bullgard4> leeb9972: What is the first error message on the virtual terminal?
[15:52] <bullgard4> leeb9972: Is the first error message on the virtual terminal this " Gtk-Warning **: cannot open display"?
[15:53] <leeb9972> i get ~$: command not found
[15:54] <bullgard4> leeb9972: "command not found" seems to be an answer to a command that you typed in. What command did you type in?
[15:55] <leeb9972> ~$ more dmseg.log20100921
[15:57] <bullgard4> leeb9972: Replace dmseg with dmesg.
[15:57] <leeb9972> Maybe because i have uk keyboard etc
[15:59] <leeb9972> same error
[15:59] <bullgard4> leeb9972: Your PC seemed to work with Ubuntu 10.04. If so, I have no doubt that your present trouble is not due to you UK keyboard.
[15:59] <leeb9972> same error ~$: command not found
[16:00] <leeb9972> i will re-install 10.4
[16:01] <bullgard4> :-(
[16:01] <leeb9972> lol, hope this problem will not happen when 10.10 is finally released
[16:03] <Slasher`> lol, i might have to go back to 10.04 myself soon
[16:03] <Slasher`> can't get xvid to play even with vlc
[16:03] <bullgard4> I believe that Ubuntu 10.10 in its present configuration will not change much until official Ubuntu 10.10 relase next month.
[16:03] <leeb9972> ill reinstall 10.4 then upgrade without installing ati driver
[16:03] <Slasher`> did you get xvid to play?
[16:04] <bullgard4> leeb9972: That is a reasonable.
[16:04] <bullgard4> -a
[16:04] <leeb9972> will let you know

[17:19] <traskmind> Is there a way I can use Claws Mail (instead of Evolution) in the messaging menu (running 10.10 right now)
[17:23] <benste> hi, is it correct that sony-laptop module has been remove for maverick ?
[17:23] <benste> don't find anything in synaptic which could help getting my FN keys working again
[17:25] <benste> did my message arrive in the channel (sometimes my IRC just keeps the messages for his own)
[17:25] <traskmind> benste, I see your message, I can do a quick apt search for you if you like?
[17:26] <benste> traskmind: you can check yours - but I've already checked mine :-(
[17:26] <traskmind> benste, ah, I see. Probably been removed then :(
[17:26] <benste> why the h*** - this would cause every Sony Laptop not to work properly
[17:27] <benste> -- is there some kind of log where I can get more informations about this ?
[17:27] <benste> traskmind: I remember someone over @GPM fixed a bug in gnome-power just to work together with Sony laptops - and now i can't even use my keys ??
[17:29] <traskmind> benste, hm, I'm not sure. Possibly Google for solutions?
[17:29] <benste> that's what I'm already doing for some time now
[17:30] <traskmind> I saw multiple results for just "sony-laptop ubuntu". Possibly you could install an old sony-laptop package by hand?
[17:30] <benste> traskmind: FN Keys on Vaios with Nvidia brightness were in issue since my first ubuntu installation back in 2005
[17:30] <benste> - installing another package isn't a solution as maverick should aim to support as much hardware as possible
[17:31] <benste> maybe someone else here will know more about this special problem
[17:31] <maxb> OK, wtf? Something modified my /etc/hosts file after I upgraded to maverick, rewriting the localhost lines to include the hostname of the computer. I modified it back. Something has now REAPPLIED THE BREAKAGE?!?!
[17:31] <traskmind> I agree that the package should be included (if it still works with everything else in Maverick, of course) but installing an old version might help you out temporarily.
[17:34] <benste> traskmind: strange even the sny module seems to be remove
[17:34] <benste> d
[17:38] <benste> someone else here using a VAIO or knowing how to reenable FN keys in maverick ?
[17:38] <maxb> Ugh, this is network-manager mangling the world, isn't it
[17:41] <jaapz> benste, do you have a sony vaio z-series?
[17:42] <benste> sadly not :-)
[17:42] <benste> just vgn-fe series
[17:42] <benste> but if you're owning it - use speed mode and we've got the same problem
[17:42] <benste> do you ?
[17:43] <benste> jaapz: ?
[17:43] <philsf> benste, my Fn keys stopped working in lucid, but they've all come back in maverick
[17:43] <philsf> benste, I have an Asus, though
[17:43] <benste> philsf: which vaio ?
[17:43] <benste> -- ausus is something completly different
[17:43] <philsf> just wondering if it might be related
[17:43] <jaapz> Benste, no i was just googling on vaio in ubuntu and found this: https://launchpad.net/~sony-vaio-z-series
[17:44] <philsf> benste, try an older kernel image
[17:47] <benste> jaapz: vaio z's main problem is related to the pre nvidia optimus technology they're using, my vaio doesn't have anything special except the combination of Vaio FNs and Nvidia card which is the badest one i know on the market
[17:47] <benste> at least for linux
[17:48] <benste> philsf: i don't know whether it's really kernel realted, i remember having a package in lucid and pre called sony-laptop
[17:48] <benste> this one use to enable the keys
[17:48] <benste> jaapz: I'll report a new bug against X and ask the Zseries list for help on this one too
[17:49] <philsf> benste, my lucid install had functioning Fn keys with the first kernels, then an upgrade took away most of the Fn keys (this included volume and sleep)
[17:50] <philsf> benste, I'm almost sure it was a kernel upgrade, but it might be someting else. just tipping you in the direction I might look
[17:50] <benste> philsf: strange thing, my lucid one is still working
[17:50] <philsf> s/might/would/
[17:50] <jaapz> benste, it does relate to the kernel, as the sony-laptop package just installed some modules, or modified, or whatever
[17:50] <benste> philsf: did you open a bug report ?
[17:50] <philsf> benste, yes, but as you said, asus and sony use different quirks. I just assumed all of those are controlled by the kernel
[17:51] <philsf> benste, I didn't bother, since none of my missing Fn keys were critical
[17:59] <bullgard4> leeb9972: I am not very well versed with dual monitors. I have been using two monitors at the same time using the program xrandr. Did you try xrandr?
[17:59] <DoubleString> Hello, I'm dealing the problem of tray icons in maverick
[17:59] <DoubleString> xchat,skype and other programs close to 'tray' which is somehow not displayed
[18:00] <DoubleString> and I have to manually close them by 'killall'
[18:00] <mampos> hello
[18:00] <mampos> i am awesome
[18:00] <mampos> lol
[18:01] <DoubleString> anyone?
[18:13] <m1ke_l> hello ubuntu+1:  i'm testing out netbook ubuntu 10.10 and the unity interface is wicked slow...i'm googling but was wondering if this was a currnet known issue
[18:14] <lapion> someone really most definitively killed off i915 driver load for i855-xorg
[18:15] <lapion> Beta version i915 works just fine, latest update i915 is totally disabled
[18:15] <lapion> someone forgot to leave a window open for i8xx chipsets with patch   * debian/patches/206_intel_8xx_default_to_fbdev.patch:
[18:15] <andycc> m1ke_l: Unity is in beta. It also probably uses Clutter. So yes, it's slow. What are your hardware specs?
[18:15] <leeb9972> anyone know how i can get dual monitors set up on 10.10, i have ati card
[18:15] <m1ke_l> i totally agree and understand that, honestly do.   this is a netbook atom n2790 cpu
[18:15] <lapion> in the meanwhile the beta disc i855 was allready working perfectlty, and did not seem to need a blacklisting
[18:15] <m1ke_l> gnome runs just fine, which points to a unity "issue"
[18:16] <andycc> leeb: maybe system > preferences > monitor
[18:16] <andycc> *leeb9972: ^
[18:16] <leeb9972> doh! lol, thank you .....
[18:18] <m1ke_l> thanks andycc, i'll just mark it up as "beta" software and try again in a few weeks
[18:23] <uzi__> my sound device is not working. can someone help?
[18:26] <Slasher`> :)
[18:27] <mrandrzejak> hello! my printing no longer works after upgrading to maverick. is there a simple way to report this to launchpad? "printing" does see my printer, but trying to print a job leaves it in "processing" mode forever.
[18:30] <DoubleString> is anyone also getting the same problem with tray icons?
[18:30] <uzi__> DoubleString: what problem?
[18:30] <uzi__> !sound
[18:31] <DoubleString> on 10.04, XChat, Skype and Evolution had their tray icons, now upgraded, there's no more tray icons
[18:31] <DoubleString> AND when I close them, they don't close themselves, therefore need killall them
[18:31] <Slasher`> do you have the system tray applet on your panel?
[18:31] <uzi__> !sound | uzi__
[18:33] <DoubleString> Slasher`, you mean notification area? yes
[18:33] <Slasher`> yeah, sorry
[18:34] <Slasher`> if you have, then i can't help you, sorry... but always worth checking anyway
[18:34] <Ranjan> I am having some issue with Xcat sound notification ... It is not working @ my place and it is giving an error msg as failed to read the file .. Presently I am on ubuntu 10.10 beta version ..  Any help on this regard would be of great help .. Thanks in advance
[18:35] <uzi__> !sound | Ranjan
[18:36] <Ranjan> uzi__: sound is working with charm but this xchat sound notification is not working
[18:36] <Mohan_chml> Hello. I have an Issue. While I tried to make my Live USB, The startup disk creator  worked fine. But when I booted from It, It shows Boot Error. Any suggestions
[18:38] <Tetsuo55> hey
[18:39] <Mohan_chml> Ranjan: you tried playing the sound you chose at settings->preferences-> sound ?
[18:39] <Tetsuo55> something strange is going on since the update i got yesterday, my wireless icon is now on the right side of the OFF button instead of the left side of the clock
[18:39] <Tetsuo55> how can i correct that?
[18:40] <Ranjan> Mohan_chml: yes
[18:40] <Mohan_chml> Ranjan: Is it playing there?
[18:40] <Ranjan> Mohan_chml: no
[18:41] <Mohan_chml> you can see the play option in bottom right. Try it and If you are using 2.8.6, then there will be an issue I think and It has nothing to do with Ubuntu sound =]
[18:41] <uzi__> Tetsuo55: right click -> unlock -> move left side of the OFF button
[18:41] <uzi__> *move to
[18:42] <Ranjan> Mohan_chml: It is showing an pop-up window gaving an msg as cannot read sound file
[18:42] <Tetsuo55> uzi__:  rightclick gives me a list of connection options instead of the usual panel options
[18:42] <uzi__> Ranjan: probably the notification audio file is missing.
[18:42] <Mohan_chml> Ranjan: then It has the error in opening the sound files location. let me version you
[18:43] <Mohan_chml> Wow. you are using 2.8.8
[18:43] <uzi__> Tetsuo55: do u see three small dashes before the wireless icon?
[18:43] <Ranjan> yes
[18:43] <Mohan_chml> Ranjan: try brosing and add the sound file
[18:43] <Tetsuo55> uzi__:  yes
[18:43] <uzi__> Tetsuo55: right click there
[18:43] <Tetsuo55> uzi__:  ok that gives me the normal menu, but move is greyed out
[18:44] <uzi__> Tetsuo55: uncheck lock to panel?
[18:44] <Ranjan> I have already broused and added the files .. but it is not working on 10.10 where as it is working normally on 10.04
[18:44] <Mohan_chml> browsing*
[18:45] <Mohan_chml> it has error in reading sound file
[18:45] <Mohan_chml> Ubuntu versions has nothing to do with that
[18:46] <Ranjan> so how to fix it
[18:46] <Tetsuo55> uzi__:  win! that worked thanks
[18:46] <uzi__> Tetsuo55: you're welcome.
[18:47] <Mohan_chml> AndrewMC: Ranjan is using 2.8.8 and  It is showing an pop-up window gaving an msg as cannot read sound file
[18:48] <AndrewMC> Ranjan: i do not think there are any xchat sound files in ubuntu
[18:48] <AndrewMC> Ranjan: i get the same message myself
[18:49] <uzi__> how does mixer device node name looks like?
[18:50] <uzi__> could someone plz lookup for me under /dev/snd plz?
[18:51] <Ranjan> AndrewMC: I have assigned some  of the sound files .. and it should play those .. does it requires mplayer for those file to read
[18:51] <AndrewMC> Ranjan: i am not sure... i wouldnt think so
[18:52] <AndrewMC> Ranjan: what type of music files are they?
[18:52] <AndrewMC> or sound files rather
[18:53] <Ranjan> AndrewMC: .wav
[18:56] <Ranjan> Mohan_chml: Is this your problem as it is being listed on launchpad    https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/608382      please have an look @ this link it is have the solution for boot error  please have an look
[18:56] <Mohan_chml> Ranjan: ty :)
[18:57] <Ranjan> Mohan_chml: you are welcome
[18:58] <MTecknology> This is sad... I can only burn cd's and my usb drives are max 512... I want to toss 10.10 on this thing though....
[18:59] <AndrewMC> Ranjan: try asking in #xchat
[19:00] <Ranjan> MTecknology : I hope you can try it by using grub / by using virtual box tooo

[19:02] <zniavre> good evening
[19:02] <zniavre> any news about nvidia-legacy 173.14.xx drivers please?
[19:02] <zniavre> they are usable now ?
[19:02] <ulziibuyan> bullgard4: lmgtfy.org/q?=superh
[19:02] <sujith> Anyone have any idea online linux jobs in Canonical
[19:02] <bullgard4> ulziibuyan: shut up
[19:03] <ulziibuyan> sujith: you could try canonical website.
[19:03] <ulziibuyan> bullgard4: i think google has an answer
[19:03] <Pici> ulziibuyan: Thats not helpful here.
[19:03] <Pici> !google
[19:03] <Mohan_chml> sujith: it will be good if you have off-topic away from here.
[19:04] <ulziibuyan> bullgard4: sh is short for superh. its name of an architecture
[19:04] <sujith> sorry I am new to IRC...
[19:05] <bullgard4> ulziibuyan: Ah! I will take taht into account.
[19:06] <bullgard4> s/taht/that/

[19:08] <sujith> how can be part of official ubuntu testing team ?
[19:09] <Pici> sujith: #ubuntu-qa would be a good place to start I suppose.
[19:12] <jiohdi> I installed 10.10 beta... when the real deal arrives, will it be just an easy update?
[19:13] <ulziibuyan> good question. will it?
[19:13] <Mohan_chml> Pici: he is asking for jobs and not contribution
[19:14] <jiohdi> or will we have to re-install
[19:14] <Pici> Mohan_chml: oh
[19:14] <jiohdi> what happened last time?
[19:14] <jiohdi> were those of us who mastered beta given a hand?

[19:50] <MTecknology> If I'm not worried about data loss, what options will give me the best performance for ext4 when I'm compliling and moving around thousands of small files
[19:50] <andycc> MTecknology: I think ReiserFS is better suited for that.
[19:51] <Jordan_U> andycc: Reiserfs has been dyning ever since Hans was convicted though.
[19:51] <MTecknology> andycc: really? I thought reiserfs was slow but good for batter life (just from my experience with using it on a laptop)
[19:52] <MTecknology> Jordan_U: He was innocent!
[19:52] <andycc> MTecknology: reiserfs is known for good performance with lots of small files and bad performance with few large ones.
[19:52]  * MTecknology quotes OJ trials
[19:52] <MTecknology> alrighty
[19:52] <MTecknology> any options I could try with ext4 for my other stuff?
[19:52] <MTecknology> and /home ?
[19:53] <MTecknology> I've always used defaults
[19:53] <andycc> I think K.Mandla posted something about that a long time ago.
[19:54] <andycc> Here you go: http://kmandla.wordpress.com/projects/set-up-ubuntu-for-speed/#ext3
[19:55] <MTecknology> thanks :)
[19:56] <andycc> The tips are for ext3, but should apply to ext4 too (I think).
[19:56] <veenenen> anyone know why maverick is breaking sasl in postfix?
[19:57] <andycc> veenenen: You aren't using Maverick on a server, are you?
[19:57] <veenenen> yeah, I'm working with the new uec workflow
[19:59] <ulziibuyan> whats the major minor number of the mixer device for card0?
[19:59] <veenenen> if I could get lucid to work, I would use it, but the image > kvm > ec2 only works right now in maverick.
[20:00] <MTecknology> andycc: 'sync' do you know if that means async or opposite of that?
[20:01] <andycc> MTecknology: simply "sync".
[20:03] <fusion44> hi
[20:03] <fusion44> I have rendering problems in kubuntu maverik beta
[20:04] <fusion44> windows just disappear and reappear in parts
[20:04] <andycc> Did you enable KWin compositing?
[20:05] <fusion44> yes
[20:06] <fusion44> I haven't noticed this problem yesterday
[20:06] <andycc> Well, try disabling it.
[20:09] <Jordan_U> fusion44: What graphics card?
[20:10] <fusion44> seems to work with kwin disabled
[20:10] <fusion44> Jordan_U: Geforce GTX 460 with latest stable drivers from nvidi
[20:10] <fusion44> +a
[20:10] <fusion44> installed from the nvidia package instead from the repositories
[20:11] <MichealH> fusion44: Trythe repos
[20:11] <MichealH> That MAY be your issue
[20:12] <Jordan_U> fusion44: Problems like you described are usually caused by driver bugs, but at the same time nvidia's drivers are usually pretty good. I agree that you should try the packaged drivers, and if they have the same problem see if you can reproduce the problem with another compositing WM like compiz.
[20:15] <fusion44> I'll propabyl have to uninstall the driver first before I reinstall them from the repository?
[20:16] <andycc> fusion44: I guess you'll have to.
[20:16] <fusion44> ok thanks
[20:33] <FloridaGuy> im useing ubuntu 10.04...running update-manager -d to upgrade to ubuntu 10.10..but im geting this message....  http://img844.imageshack.us/f/screenshotfv.png/
[20:35] <andycc> FloridaGuy: well, maybe it's caused by "Upgrading to a pre-release version of Ubuntu".
[20:36] <andycc> FloridaGuy: I suggest you wait until 10.10 goes final. In the mean time, do a clean install of the beta in another partition or in a VM if you want to test it.
[20:37] <FloridaGuy> andycc, so your saying cant do like i do in mandriva....go from stable to the testing releases
[20:37] <pietro10> After upgrading to 10.10 g++ is now giving me the following warning]
[20:37] <pietro10> or something
[20:38] <pietro10> ambiguous else after if, suggest braces
[20:38] <andycc> FloridaGuy: you can, but it's not guaranteed to work. Actually, it's more like guaranteed to not work. You'll get a lot of problems and bugs.
[20:38] <pietro10> however every time it happens, it's a false positive
[20:38] <pietro10> since there ARE braces
[20:38] <pietro10> is this a known bug or not?
[20:38] <andycc> !error | pietro10
[20:39] <FloridaGuy> andycc, how do i find out why it wont upgrade thow
[20:40] <pietro10> andycc: I want to know if the above problem I have (gcc warnings showing up when they shouldn't) is a known bug yet or not
[20:41] <pietro10> if { if(x)y(); } else z(); makes g++ warn me about "ambiguous else"
[20:41] <andycc> FloridaGuy: run apt-get dist-upgrade or something from a terminal.
[20:41] <pietro10> this only happened AFTER the 10.10 upgrade, so I assume it's a change made by the 10.10 maintainers
[20:42] <andycc> pietro10: Well, from my knowledge of C/C++, I guess g++ wants you to use "else { z(); }" instead of "else z();", or something.
[20:42] <FloridaGuy> sudo apt-get dist-upgrade.....  0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[20:43] <andycc> Or maybe it asks you to indent your code. It's an ambiguous error message.
[20:43] <andycc> FloridaGuy: OK, not really. First, do you have important data on that 10.04 install?
[20:43] <FloridaGuy> andycc, no
[20:44] <pietro10> andycc: meh
[20:44] <pietro10> also I use strict K&R
[20:44] <pietro10> it's not a big problem anyway; it just doubles the # of warnings I usually have
[20:44] <pietro10> =P
[20:45] <andycc> FloridaGuy: open /etc/apt/sources.list with gedit, nano or something (sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list);
[20:45] <andycc> FloridaGuy: and replace all occurrences of "lucid" with "maverick"
[20:45] <andycc> FloridaGuy: then, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[20:45] <andycc> FloridaGuy: no guarantees though.
[20:46] <FloridaGuy> andycc, copy and paste maverick in place of lucid
[20:46] <andycc> yes, replace lucid with maverick
[20:46] <andycc> everywhere
[20:46] <andycc> you might also have other files under /etc/apt/sources.list.d
[20:47] <andycc> you should probably replace lucid with maverick in those too.
[20:49] <andycc> ...and now I'm going to bed. FloridaGuy, hope it works.
[20:49] <FloridaGuy> apt-get dist-upgrade told me the problem.....   The following packages have unmet dependencies:  libdrm-nouveau1: Breaks: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau (< 1:0.0.16) but 1:0.0.15+git20100219+9b4118d-0ubuntu5 is to be installedE: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.
[20:50] <duffydack> should really just set to show normal releases in update manager..
[20:52] <duffydack> I forget if update-manager -d does same...
[20:53] <OverHelsing> Hi!
[20:53] <Pici> -d is for upgrading to the latest development release.
[20:53] <OverHelsing> I am with problems in Default audio mixer.
[20:54] <OverHelsing> Someone can help? Its not working.
[20:55] <duffydack> Pici, both method would work though right?
[20:55] <Pici> duffydack: You shouldn't really continue to use '-d' once you've upgraded to the development release.
[20:56] <duffydack> but showing normal release in update manager will show maverick ?
[20:56] <duffydack> like, now
[20:57] <duffydack> its lts only with lucid isnt it
[20:57] <Pici> duffydack: Are you on Maverick already?
[20:57] <duffydack> I`m dual boot.. its FloridaGuy that wants to
[20:57] <duffydack> replacing lucid with maverick in sources.list is a bad idea.. so I just suggested alternatives
[20:58] <Pici> Yes, I agree that its a bad idea.
[20:58] <Pici> Use update-manager -d or do-release-upgrade -d   instead.
[21:02] <FloridaGuy> i uninstalled the package that was giving trouble so see what happens now
[21:03] <duffydack> FloridaGuy, dude, really woul be better to use update-manager -d
[21:03] <duffydack> would*
[21:04] <FloridaGuy> duffydack, thats what im useing
[21:04] <duffydack> dist-upgrade after changing your sources to maverick ?
[21:05] <FloridaGuy> duffydack, what the 1st guy said to do..showed me what was causing the problem
[21:06] <duffydack> using update-manager properly will take care of any dependencies and removal of packages...  dont replace lucid with maverick in apt and dist-upgrade.
[21:06] <FloridaGuy> duffydack, useing update-manager -d
[21:06] <FloridaGuy> and it works now
[21:06] <duffydack> ok.
[21:09] <FloridaGuy> duffydack, i had this problem.... The following packages have unmet dependencies:  libdrm-nouveau1: Breaks: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau (< 1:0.0.16) but 1:0.0.15+git20100219+9b4118d-0ubuntu5 is to be installedE: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages...i uninstalled...   xserver-xorg-video-nouveau....added git-core
[21:15] <vinok> hi guys just want to check with you how is the new gnome version doing in 10.10
[21:17] <gnomefreak> vinok: new gnome is same as Lucids version 2 api changes or so but same
[21:20] <Some_Person> My audio is broken
[21:21] <Some_Person> Seems like a fairly recent update broke it
[21:22]  * gnomefreak not sure what "broke" means
[21:22] <Some_Person> No sound playing, despite it not being muted and the volume all the way up
[21:28] <volodya_> Some_Person: if you run pavucontrol, and play music, do you see level monitor showing anything. (Select output devices tab, of course)
[21:29] <volodya_> Some_Person: I assume you use pulse as audio level
[21:30] <Some_Person> Where is this "level monitor"?
[21:36] <DanaG> hmm, compiz ppa has 0.9.0 compiz with 0.8.2 ccsm.
[21:37] <volodya_> Some_Person: right below volume sliders
[21:37] <volodya_> how many output devices do you have?
[21:39] <Some_Person> http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/2122/screenshotveu.png
[21:41] <gnomefreak> Some_Person: are you playing music in the screenshot?
[21:41] <Some_Person> gnomefreak: yes, there is audio attempting to play
[21:42] <Some_Person> Rhythmbox isn't working at all (playing something doesn't advance past 0:00)
[21:42] <gnomefreak> there should be a progress line(wrong word) it should pulse to the music just under the silence max line
[21:43] <Some_Person> Well, it isn't there
[21:43] <gnomefreak> Some_Person: does it work if you change the internal audio analog... to use amplifier?
[21:44] <gnomefreak> assuming it is a choice
[21:44] <Some_Person> I don't see any "amplifier" setting
[21:44] <gnomefreak> if not try another output device (\audio port)
[21:45] <Some_Person> All 3 choices (Analog Speakers, Analog Output, and Analog Headphones) produce the same results
[21:45] <gnomefreak> i only have ampilfier in the drop down, most likley since i am using only 1 output device
[21:46] <Some_Person> This is a laptop with internal speakers and one headphone output
[21:46] <gnomefreak> that could be why ;)
[21:47] <avis> is it safe to update / upgrade today with a daily build ?

[22:02] <Some_Person> Lucid screwed up my audio around this time in its prerelease state too
[22:06] <gnomefreak> a few days ago (maybe this time last week) my sound finally started working. it finally started saving its settings
[22:08] <Some_Person> That could be when mine broke
[22:13]  * volodya_ even has bluetooth headset working
[22:25] <DanaG> hmm, compiz ppa has new compiz, but not new ccsm!
[22:42] <Some_Person> Anyone know how to fix my audio?
[22:45] <wirechief> Some_Person: read this? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting
[22:49] <Some_Person> That doesn't help much, especially considering it was working as of last week

[22:56] <micahg> anyone having issues with cpu frequency scaling?  in Lucid, it would stay if I set it for performance at maximum, in Maverick, it jumps around as if it's not set
[23:05]  * duffydack removes /etc/init.d/ondemand to gain performance.  this is a desktop replacement machine :L)
[23:13] <wirechief> Some_Person: do you have pavcontrol installed, it might be helpfull
[23:14] <Some_Person> wirechief: I have pavucontrol
[23:14] <wirechief> ok, by default its not installed, i use it to control my mic
[23:15] <wirechief> i just got 10.10 to test and see if they fixed the control, it kept knocking my vol down in 10.4.1 and others.
[23:20] <dakira> hi. I found a regression in Evolution. You can't sync to Google Calendar anymore. The calendar-type "Google" is just gone. This is on a vanilla installation of maverick with all updates installed.
[23:30] <bdogg> can someone help me with JACK audio in maverick
