=== nhandler is now known as Guest26812 [00:08] Is Rhythmbox not playing anything for anyone else in Natty? (been like this a couple weeks here) === nhandler_ is now known as nhandler [00:09] ScislaC: To be honest I don't use Rhythmbox so I wouldn't know [01:03] ScislaC: bug # 688732 maybe? [01:07] what else can I provide to help end my kernel woes at bug#693828 [01:07] is the bug bot on holiday? [01:10] hmm [01:14] alex_mayorga: There's a vbox oops in those logs, doubt it's the underlying cause but it might be worth forcibly removing any virtual box stuff [01:14] penguin42: uninstall vboxose? [01:15] yeh [01:16] penguin42: removing... [01:24] penguin42: now they're gone [01:24] good luck! [01:39] where can I find the dialog that allows me to set the amount of 'desktop effects' I want? I thought it was in prefs>appearance but I don't see it there now [01:39] I mean the thing that lets me turn compiz off and on I guess? === dooglus_ is now known as dooglus [07:20] i was wondering when the kpackagekit bug is going to be fixed i saw that kde fixed the problem in version 0.6.3,2 [09:06] Hello [11:06] Hello! [11:06] Does someone know when firefox package will be updated in natty? [11:50] Let me build some gingerbread [12:33] Hmmm [12:33] I've got an ugly nautilus [12:36] ugly? [12:37] Asec [12:37] * penguin42 seems to have a different problem; most of the stuff on Places doesn't work [12:38] Has tried unity in a while [12:38] *Haven't [12:38] yeh I've not tried it in a couple of weeks [12:39] http://img689.imageshack.us/i/screenshotmu.png/ [12:41] nperry: Hmm, I've noticed privileged stuff is running with a very plain theme [12:42] Thats my defination of ugly :P [12:45] moo === yofel_ is now known as yofel [13:31] nperry, that has to be very annoying, I dunno what I would do with unity on my 4 screen desktop [13:37] ? [13:41] the screenshot [13:41] having to move the mouse between screens to access the menubar [13:42] or in my case, move it through 4 screens to get to it [13:43] * penguin42 tries to remember - how did MacOS solve that? [13:44] dunno, never touch a mac here [13:50] I just ask since Macs have a similar paradigm and have had multihead for literally decades [13:51] I actually have macos in a vm, I should attempt to run it again, and try a dualscreen in it [13:51] dunno if it would work though [13:52] running macos in a vm isn't the easiest of things [13:55] patdk-wk: Getting dual head in a VM isn't easy either! [14:03] penguin42, I have no issues doing dual head with my windows vm's :) I haven't tried ubuntu dual head vm's yet, but ya, I normally don't use them that way [14:03] patdk-wk: Which VM system do you use that is easy to do dual head on? [14:03] vmware workstation [14:07] ok === IAmNotThatGuy is now known as M0hi === Quintasan_ is now known as Quintasan [16:03] hey people. how do I convert on the fly to 64 bit with no reinstall from cd ? [16:03] I don't think it is possible [16:03] h4f: you don't, you will need to reinstall [16:04] Jeruvy: there is no other ways ? [16:04] h4f: There is no sane way to do it [16:04] penguin42: are there insane ways to do it ? [16:05] I know some gentoo users did that [16:06] h4f: You can create a 64bit chroot with debootstrap, it won't work until you boot a 64bit kernel though, and then you can swap the two sets around - very very messy and loads of things will need manually straightening out [16:28] h4f: you can set up vbox disks - windoze, 64-bit linux, etc [16:29] kuvu: and what to do with them ? [16:30] h4f: whatever you want to do on the fly? [16:30] kuvu: I just wonted to swithc my system from 32 bit install to 64 bit [16:30] kuvu: and realized that there are no easy ways to do it :D [16:31] besides total reinstall [16:31] h4f: in that case re-install is the best === SolidLiq is now known as solid_liq [16:32] h4f: much easier on the long run [16:33] h4f, create a small partition and install 64 bit os then mount the old partition as /home [16:34] Yorvyk: yes that might work it is the similar to reinstalling === Guest96026 is now known as MichealH [16:36] h4f, It was quicker than restoring all the data when a friend did it. [16:44] how can I check the validity of all packages on a system? [16:45] something like checksuming them against the repository or similar [16:49] heh, I need to upgrade mine from 32 to 64bit, but remounting /home isn't good enough :( [16:49] I have lots and lots of edits in /etc, /usr/share, /var, ... [16:50] alex_mayorga, look here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomatedTesting [16:50] just going install 64bit to a new drive, and spend time re-editing everything [16:55] patdk-wk, it might work if you reinstall without reformatting/repartitioning [16:56] I think that would just cause package madness :) [16:56] another way is you could copy the /etc directory and whatever else is edited and past them into the new install to replace what's there [16:56] ya, that is basically what I'm going do [16:57] it just takes time :( [16:57] everything is running fine on it now, just 64bit vm's are slow [16:57] cause of the 32bit host os [16:57] and well, programs are limited to like 3gigs of ram [16:58] 64-bit host and then 32-bit guest is better imo [16:58] is kcrypt still limited to single cpu? [16:58] kuvu, yep, but have to upgrade the host first :) [16:59] reinstall is best [16:59] I think the cpu I had a few years ago didn't support 64bit [16:59] then it didn't matter, cause the motherboard only supported 3gigs ram [16:59] now on a new system and stuck on 32bit :) [17:00] reinstall shouldn't take that long [17:00] it doesn't [17:00] just resetting up everything after it's installed, does [17:02] apache, mythtv, openvpn, nfs, samba, squid, firewall, mysql, WDE, dhcp3, radvd, dns, munin, ... [17:02] nothing in it self is hard, just 5min here, 5min there, ..., adds up to a while [17:02] hey guys...noticing almost "0" set for password timeout [17:22] alex_mayorga: debsums [17:43] Can someone take a look at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/694825 ? It's driving me mad, my installation crashes almost right after booting. Can anyone reproduce this or it's something faulty with my installation? [17:43] Ubuntu bug 694825 in linux (Ubuntu) "ata_bmdma crashing at random(?)" [Undecided,New] [17:44] * penguin42 looks [18:19] abittin@jabber.se i need more geeks to chat with :) [18:22] coz_: not quite I believe [18:22] penguin42: debsums looks more like it [18:23] alex_mayorga, but a noticeable decrese in time out ...yes? [19:04] anyone here running vbox 4 in natty? [19:14] yes [19:21] charlie-tca, did you just replace natty with maverick using the vbox repo? [19:22] no, I downloaded 4, removed 3.2, and then installed 4 [19:22] As far as I know, you can not upgrade to 4 [19:32] this is a fresh natty install so no upgrading here [19:33] so you downloaded the maverick .deb then? [19:33] http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/4.0.0/virtualbox-4.0_4.0.0-69151~Ubuntu~maverick_i386.deb [19:33] yup [19:33] ahhh [19:33] But that is how I have installed every version, too [19:33] You also have to download the extension file for usb to work [19:41] link? [19:42] nvm ill google [19:42] :P [19:48] http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads [19:48] need the extension pack, just double-click to install [20:46] any way to get ff3.6 from the repo's without having becoming a transitional package to ff4.0? Need some older plugins, just want to know if i can do this in a nice way [22:29] evening mum and ded! [22:30] how can I use this deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/habnabit/hab-ppa/ubuntu YOUR_UBUNTU_VERSION_HERE main deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/habnabit/hab-ppa/ubuntu YOUR_UBUNTU_VERSION_HERE main with the prerelease? [22:33] doesn't look available for maverick or natty [23:39] Ubuntu shutdown time is sorta atrocious in last couple releases including natty so far [23:40] yep [23:40] even on SSD [23:53] shuts down quickly here [23:53] and starts up quick too [23:53] It looks alright in here. [23:53] startup time is fantastic. though unity just broke with the latest updates again :( [23:53] shutdown is being OK for me, the boot up however on one machine is a different matter [23:54] boot is fine [23:54] shutdown takes almost the same amount as boot [23:54] lol [23:54] Both are fast in here, and it's a 4 year old PC [23:55] Well.. I think it is 4 years old. [23:59] 3 yo laptop, with ssd
