| cor_r | geser: apparently the directory is non existent?!? | 11:28 |

| yofel | hey BUGabundo | 14:24 |
| penguin42 | apport has started asking for passwords about 3 or 4 times during each bug report - very annoying | 14:47 |
| MickStep | can someone using nouveau please pastebin there xorg.conf | 15:45 |
| BUGabundo | sec | 15:45 |
| BUGabundo | MickStep: $ pastebinit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 15:45 |
| BUGabundo | Unable to read from: /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 15:45 |
| yofel | usually you have no xorg.conf with nouveau | 15:46 |
| MickStep | yofel: That's what I thought, when my X broke after an update, I disabled nvidia in jockey and deleted my xorg.conf, and my X is still broken | 15:48 |
| MickStep | looking at the welcome message though it appears this problem is a widespread one? | 15:48 |
| yofel | MickStep: lsmod shows nouveau as loaded? | 15:49 |
| yofel | also, you'll need nvidia-current from x-updates PPA if you want to use that | 15:49 |
| yofel | that has the current beta driver | 15:49 |
| MickStep | That souns like the ticket | 15:49 |
| MickStep | yofel: why on earth would they ship X that will break the nvidia driver in the repos but not ship the working driver too | 15:50 |
| yofel | they didn't bother to package the beta driver for the main archive? And there's a bug in the nvidia packaging that doesn't prevent it from being installed with an incompatible x-server | 15:51 |
| yofel | well, more like the proprietary driver has a lower priority than fixing the default drivers | 15:52 |
| MickStep | yofel: still why ship a package that definitely wont work in favour of one that might be buggy. | 15:53 |
| yofel | erm, the x-server was upgraded, it's just that the nvidia-driver wasn't updated yet because it's not important enough to get an updat | 15:53 |
| yofel | *update | 15:54 |
| yofel | and they're not going to remove it just because it's broken | 15:54 |
| yofel | acutally, that it's not being removed by the x-server update is already a known bug | 15:54 |
| yofel | welcome to alpha | 15:55 |
| MickStep | it's still worth it I guess, is there a twitter feed or anything where you can get a heads up about update that will break your system? | 15:56 |
| yofel | see /topic, there *IS* a warning about X being in a broken state | 15:56 |
| bazhang | http://feeds.ubuntu-nl.org/NattyChanges MickStep | 15:57 |

| MickStep | I am sshed in and all the services I run are running fine | 17:17 |
| MickStep | I think it's a far more intrinsic problem with X than just a driver issue, is it possible to roll back to the previous X using apt? | 17:18 |
