alex_mayorgathe new desktop still won't load down here, tips?00:10
charlie-tcaalex_mayorga: what video card?00:20
charlie-tcaFor ATI, use the default opensource driver, for Nvidia, use the hardware driver, for intel, I don't have any idea00:21
yofelintel should work out of the box00:21
alex_mayorgacharlie-tca: nvidia geforce with cuda here00:31
alex_mayorgawhatever that means00:31
alex_mayorgabut is on a funky VAIO laptop that has EDID issues or something00:32
yofelalex_mayorga: yes, then load classic, install nvidia driver, try unity00:32
alex_mayorgahow to install nvidia, jockey?00:32
yofelyep00:33
yofel(or try to install libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental I think which should give nouveau 3D support)00:33
alex_mayorgahow do I get back if something goes terribly wrong as it usually does with nvidia for me00:33
alex_mayorgalet me try that last one, how to?00:33
yofeldrop to a tty, purge nvidia driver and delete xorg.conf00:34
alex_mayorgajust good old sudo00:34
alex_mayorgamind a good old 1. 2. 3.00:34
yofellast time I tried it was just install the package. BUGabundo might know more since he uses it00:34
alex_mayorgadumbed down to the extreme :)00:34
alex_mayorgayofel: hes not around though, is he/she00:35
yofelnope :/00:35
alex_mayorgahow do I get the tty00:35
yofelctrl+alt+f200:35
alex_mayorgathen?00:36
yofelsudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental00:36
yofelthen I'm not sure, reboot or maybe 'sudo service gdm restart' is enough00:36
alex_mayorgaI don't think the display on this has looked this sharp, finally nouveau seems to work for this card00:36
alex_mayorgayofel: can the same be done on a terminal or has it to be tty?00:37
yofelwell, restarting gdm will kill X, so you can restart from terminal, you'll end up on the login screen00:38
alex_mayorgadoing sudo aptitude install libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental in a terminal, let's see how that goes00:38
yofelI *hope* that's the right way. It worked when I tried it last time00:39
alex_mayorgapackage installed, now what? reboot?00:39
alex_mayorgasudo restart gdm ?00:39
yofeland there he goes...00:40
alex_mayorgano luck, still no panels :(00:40
yofelthen reboot, it's been a while since I tried this00:42

alex_mayorgathat's something odd in dmesg00:42
alex_mayorgaanyhow let me reboot00:42
* alex_mayorga crosses fingers00:42
alex_mayorgayofel: safe mode let me in but I have the standard gnome panels00:46
alex_mayorgaguess unity is not for me for now :)00:46
yofel:/00:46
alex_mayorgalet me try with nvidia00:47
alex_mayorgamaybe it works better now00:47
alex_mayorgajockey says "You are not authorized to perform this action."00:48

alex_mayorgasomehow I managed to get that one in natty00:58
alex_mayorgacharlie-tca: I'm about to run for my class but I just saw that or a really similar one01:00
charlie-tcaanything is possible at this point.01:00
alex_mayorgashall I re-open that one?01:02
charlie-tcaI would file a new one01:02

hallyn_do i understand right that, at this point, 'netbook' and 'desktop' are supposed to be 100% identical?02:37
charlie-tcanope02:39
charlie-tcanot at this point, they aren't02:39
hallyn_hm.  bc i did a do-dist-upgrade in my maverick netbook, and it ends up exactly like my natty desktop02:40
charlie-tcaThat is the eventual goal.02:40
charlie-tcaappearance might be the same, but there are a few bugs yet in desktop02:41
hallyn_but in the meantime there is a separate set of netbook packages?  how would i get those back?02:41
hallyn_s/back//02:41
hallyn_aptitude search was not helpful02:41
charlie-tcaI do not know02:41
hallyn_hm.  ok, thanks.02:42
hallyn_suppose i could install fresh from a new usb stick02:42
Andre_GondimWhy my noteebook reset when I am using flash player?03:07
nit-witAndre_Gondim, just logged on what do you mean by reset03:07
hallyn_hm, interesting - netbook cds are now only for arm03:29

hifiapparently aptitude does not do full-upgrade if one of the repositories enabled returns a 40416:51
hifithank you for not giving any indication of that16:54
hifiother than 2 weeks of pondering why there isn't anything to upgrade16:54
yofelhifi: that is true for apt/aptitude in general, it doesn't update the package lists if one returns a 40416:58
hifisuggestion: print some error message16:59
hifiother than the 40416:59
yofelapt-get update DOES print an error message16:59
hifithough, now I know16:59
hifiis it only aptitude that does not show anything besides 404?16:59
yofelnot sure anymore what aptitude shows, but apt-get shows the 404s and some "E: Failed to fetch..." or something like that, anything that starts with E is serious17:00
yofeland breaks it17:00

Ian_Cornewhat's with all the ugly penguin-* games?19:52
TFrogwell i guess no one is testing natty narwhal on a laptop yet19:52
Ian_Cornewindows 3.0 had better looking games..19:52
Ian_CorneI am19:53
Ian_Cornewhat would i need ndiswrapper for?19:53
TFrogdepends on stability.  b43 doesn't work for crap for the 4306 broadcom.  always had more stability with ndiswrapper19:53
TFrogquite frankly, both methods for broadcom wireless are hacks anyway19:54

jamaltaBUGabundo: That's my guess too23:18
jamaltaBut does it mean I'm locked out of logging in now? :|23:18
charlie-tcaPython 2.7, but of course, kind of like it said in the topic.23:18
BUGabundodowngrade if you still have it on cache23:19
jamaltaTo python 2.6?23:19
BUGabundocharlie-tca: why aren't we in 3.0 ?23:19
jamaltacharlie-tca: i see that, but i didn't expect that.. lol23:19
jamaltaI'm not too bummed about it, considering I'm running an alpha version.. but I was just wondering if there was an easy fix.23:20
jamaltaBUGabundo: how do you downgrade with apt?23:20
BUGabundonot really23:21
charlie-tcaBUGabundo: I don't know, probably because those-who-know-more-than-me decided to go to 2.7 ?23:21

robin0800charlie-tca: yes but compiz crashes in that too23:24
jamaltaQuestion, will the python rebuilds happen in the next few hours, or should I expect to have a broken system for the next few days or so?23:24
charlie-tcaWell, have you tried without compiz, then? It is not needed in classic desktop23:24
jamaltaBUGabundo: i guess i can try that23:25
charlie-tcajamalta: Until the message goes away, I guess23:25

kklimondahola23:25
robin0800charlie-tca: yes thats what i'm running now, but i want to test unity!23:25
charlie-tcaHm, I think you asked for a workaround for the segfault?23:26
robin0800charlie-tca: yes so that compiz dosen't seg fault and lets me run unity23:27
