FloridaGuyThis is probly an unsoprted ? but here it is.....kubuntu 10.10 maverick....kernel 2.6.38-020638rc5-generic....from ubuntu 11.04 ....on boot i get /proc/device-tree..can't find root......but everything is runing smooth and faster then the current 10.10 kernel00:14
penguin42FloridaGuy: I think there were some natty kernels out there specificalyl for testing on maverick00:16
yofelreally? I only know the mainline kernels (which he seems to be using)00:17

penguin42yeh00:19
penguin42yofel: I seem to remember some a while ago00:20
FloridaGuyit says natty00:20
FloridaGuyworks great00:20
FloridaGuythe /proc/device-tree...cant find root....isent hurting anything00:21
yofelFloridaGuy: that's not exacly the natty kernel, but the official linux kernels with the natty configuration and without ubuntu patches. Usually used for bug testing.00:22
yofelthey are the easiest way to get newer kernels on your system though00:22
BUGabundohumm00:22
BUGabundoore xorg updates00:23
yofelpenguin42: there is a backport of the maverick kernels for lucid, but I haven't seen others00:23

robin0800penguin42, I'll try today’s alternate cd14:07
penguin42Punkoff: Yeh, I get those on this machine14:09
Punkoffpenguin42, did you solve that?14:10
penguin42no14:11
Punkoffsh#t, I have both netbook and desktop on natty, updating daily, and the netbook is just fine14:12
gnomefreakok that was odd not to mention annoying as hell :(14:38
gnomefreakok so how do i remove an icon from the gnome panel in unity?14:38
gnomefreakok updates == bad atm it will remove unity, ubuntu-desktop and all the indicator apps14:40
gnomefreakpython-appindicator is the reason indicator-* will be removed14:42
gnomefreakok how do you remove icons from unity app bar?14:46
Punkoffrightclick -> uncheck the checkbox14:46
Punkoff"keep in launcher" one14:46
penguin42it's almost a double negative isn't it14:53
Punkoffpenguin42, uncheck the checked checkbox that you checked before then14:59
penguin42that's right, unless you ticked the tickbox14:59
ipv5check please15:00

genii-aroundHm. remove with purge on xserver-xorg-video-nouveau, nouveau-firmware, and libdrm-nouveau1a still leaves it loading at boot somehow16:03
weldhello, can someone help me to debug my xorg? It seems for some reason the nouveau fails http://paste.ubuntu.com/568813/ unity and kde with desktop effects used to work fine until a week or two ago with libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental installed.16:55
weldwhat i get from the Xorg log is that the vesa driver gets used because the nouveau driver fails16:59
penguin42looks to me as if it was trying to look for a kernel drm driver and failed17:00
weldpenguin42: i'm looking for some advice on how to track this problem properly and report a bug17:03
weldlspci: http://pastebin.com/NYiCs2Vvl17:05
penguin42weld: If you do a modprobe nouveau what do you get?17:05
weldpenguin42: i can do modprobe and modprobe -r without trouble while on X, so nouveau doesn't seem to be in use17:06

penguin42Volkodav: It looks like other people are seeing that and it looks like http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12454  (from a discussion on another channel)17:29
Volkodavyeah I saw that bug but it does not seem very much relevant17:30
VolkodavI'll try the patch though17:30
penguin42Volkodav: The answer seems to be downgrade libc17:32
Volkodavhmm17:33
blueyedDoes nybody else have sound stuttering with amarok?17:34
penguin42blueyed: It occasionally stutters for me when other players don't - it's rare for me, but it's a fast box17:35
blueyedAlso, I have a problem with cryptsetup during boot, where it does not find the "foo_unformatted" devide.17:35
blueyedpenguin42: ok, would be the same then probably. It got better today, but has been really worse the last days.17:35
penguin42last couple of days amarok wouldn't play at all for me17:36

blueyedWhat other good audio players are there? Mainly for streaming currently.17:55
coz_Listen  ?17:56
yofelblueyed: tried a different phonon backend?17:56
genii-aroundVLC is pretty good al-around17:56
blueyedgenii-around: yep, but it does not like this particular .pls file.17:56
yofelvlc is nice, but not really an amarok replacement17:56
blueyedyofel: ack. would be enough for streaming currently now. I have switched the backend from xine to vlc now.. ツ17:58
blueyedcoz_: thanks for the tip - I do not have it installed, but will check in case of amarok/phonon keep failing.17:58
blueyedyofel: vlc backend just "stuttered" horribly, too.17:59
coz_cool17:59
yofelah ^^ - try the gstreamer backend too, that's the new default at least, I use vlc too17:59
yofel:/17:59
blueyedat least amarok still crashes when changing backends.. now at GStreamer.18:02
blueyedstill stutters.. now to Listen.18:02
blueyedlastfm app appears to work good, too.18:08
blueyedis only amarok and/or phonon affected by this?18:08

blueyedso, any other good players besides laggin' amarok and crashin' listen? ツ18:29
IdleOne vlc, mplayer, smplayer, gnome-mplayer, amarok, rhythmbox, banshee, kaffeine, xmms, totem, totem-xine18:30
blueyedIdleOne: you have a nice list of favorites.. ;) vlc does not work(with this pls at least), the same for mplayer and reivates. next one to try would by rhythmbox then..18:32
om26erhow can i check about how old my natty install is?18:32
blueyedreivates=derivates18:32
blueyedom26er: what do you mean with how old? uptime?18:33
blueyedlast update?18:33
om26erblueyed, install date18:33
blueyedom26er: like you have installed it fresh?18:33
om26eryes18:33
blueyedom26er: You might look at the oldest file in /var/log then for example.18:34
IdleOneuname -a will show you install date of the running kernel18:34
IdleOnenot sure how you would check install date of system18:34
blueyedom26er: given zsh, which you could install and use, this should work: ls -lU /var/log/**/*(Om)|head18:35
blueyed(in a shell of course)18:35
Volkodavblueyed: try qmmp - this puppy can play what all others can't18:35
blueyedVolkodav: sounds similar to vlc then.. ツ - I have been using it before.. IIRC it is a winamp clone, similar to xmms?! - will try.18:37
Volkodavnot clone but yes looks like it18:37
IdleOneblueyed: that command gives me: ls: cannot access /var/log/**/*(Om): No such file or directory18:37
blueyedwow. archive is a fast moving target currently.. or.. my apt-cacher-ng is crashing..18:37
Volkodavplays wavepacks with tag support18:37
blueyed..prolly both.18:37
blueyedIdleOne: try installing zsh first, and then use it.18:38
blueyedIdleOne: "sudo apt-get install zsh", "exec zsh" (in a shell)18:38
blueyedIdleOne: at least "(Om" is specific to zsh to sort my modification date, oldest first.18:39
blueyedIdleOne: you could do the same with "find", too - but I am too drunken to help you with that.18:39
IdleOneheh18:40
om26erbug 721431 ;)18:42

om26erblueyed, worked, thx18:45
om26er2010-11-2618:45
blueyedom26er: great!18:46
blueyedkeep in mind though, this might not fit - it says 2005 for me, but it might be older.. "2005-06-09 23:29 /var/log/installer/partman" ^^18:48
blueyedyeah. I would be 10 bucks on having hte oldest system here anyway.. ツ18:49
blueyeds/be/bet/18:49
penguin42blueyed: Oldest Ubuntu system yeh; this is 2007 - my dads debian box I updated earlier in the week was 2003 I think though18:51
blueyedpenguin42: 2003 is very nice, yes. Oldest Ubuntu might have been from 2004 though. It is just my first install though.18:56
blueyedI've dived into Linux and Ubuntu with Hoary, and never reinstalled.18:56

BUGabundoI can't believe how bad maverick ATI drivers are :(19:39
BUGabundonow booting a live image of natty to try to see if I can use my TV via HDMI properly19:40
penguin42natty are really flaky for me - much worse than maverick19:40
penguin42what do you see with HDMI? (I'm not using it)19:40
BUGabundoits all tint green19:41
BUGabundothe screen size is bigger then the TV19:41
BUGabundoetc19:41
BUGabundobut booting live image from internet aint the best of my ideas19:41
BUGabundoit will eventully get there19:41
BUGabundojust might take tooo long19:41
penguin42the green tint is odd; however the bigger than the TV might be the TV; in the manual for a Bravia we've got is a note that says on the HDMI it tries to do scaling, not sure what you have to do to persuade it to be sensible - I've not tried19:43
BUGabundoyeah19:44
BUGabundothough about that too19:45
