MaximLevitskyDon't know, but I can't convince myself00:01
MaximLevitskyIts just like  PA volume control00:01
MaximLevitskySure its nice, sure I use PA00:01
MaximLevitskyBut nowI end up using alsamixer quite a lot00:01

dasen:)00:02
dasenah00:02
dasenwhy is it hard to use?00:02
dasenyou can configure sound preferences from the icon on the top bar00:02
MaximLevitskyBecause PA volume control hides many mixer lements00:02
dasenohhh..00:02
dasenreally, I didn't know that00:02
MaximLevitskySo life isn't pefect, sometimes I need to adjust them/verify them00:03
dasenwhy don't you join ayatana mailling list and voice your complains?00:03

cyphasewhat software is installed if you check "Install this third-party software" in ubiquity?00:05
Daekdroomcyphase, MP3 codec, I believe.00:05
dasenno prob :)00:05
dasenbye guys,. gonna sleep00:06
cyphaseDaekdroom, but the description also mentions flash, other media, and some wifi cards00:06
cyphaseDaekdroom, is that just theoretical?00:06
Daekdroomcyphase, if the description mentions that, I believe it installs it as well.00:07
DaekdroomThe last time I looked at ubiquity was a month or two ago00:07

dlynchIs anyone here a python module debugging guru? I'm getting 100% CPU usage when importing the module kaa.metadata. This started happening with 10.10. I don't know how to isolate the problem, because when I test it using trivial code, I cannot reproduce it. But in a complex program, the bug happens every time. Running strace reveals errors but I have no idea how to interpret it's output!00:49

weboideIs nvidia-current 270.30 supposed to depends on xorg-video-abi-9, not 10 since xserver-xorg-core now provides xorg-video-abi-10? GDM won't load.12:45
weboideIt looks like it should be bumped to depend on xorg-video-abi-10.12:46
gnomefreakanyone else having issues booting with last 2 kernels?12:54

gnomefreakcant boot. moniter goes into sleep mode(for lack of better word) during plymouth12:57
gnomefreaki had to hit ctrl+alt+F# than atl+ctrl+F712:57

BluesKajHey all14:09
alketIs Natty quite stable , I mean does it have major bugs ?14:09
weboidenvidia drivers seem broken right now14:11
gnomefreakmy new printer is not found on natty and its an HP it should work pretty much out of box14:14
gnomefreaksame with flgrx and some intel issues14:14
yofelweboide: they're being rebuilt14:14
weboideyofel: neat :)14:15
gnomefreakalket: there are a fair amount of design bugs atm14:15
gnomefreakand if i cant fingure the printer issue oiut it will have printer bugs14:15
weboideyofel: is this going to be  270.30-0ubuntu214:17
weboideyofel: I meant 0ubuntu3 ?14:17
yofelubuntu2 is ok, the driver should be held back currently14:17
weboideyofel: ubuntu2 has been built against xorg-dev .99, so it points to xorg-video-abi-9 instead of -1014:18
weboideyofel: and xserver-xorg-core now provides xorg-video-abi-1014:19
yofelhm, ubuntu1 depends on abi-9 here, ubuntu2 isn't built yet14:20

weboideyofel: ahhh I see, i386 is broken, amd64  is fine14:22
gnomefreakis there anyway to force natty to find/see/recognize my printer. if not any idea on how to obtain the URI for it?14:23
gnomefreakwin 2214:23
syn3rgy Worried about Wayland replacing the x stack. I admin some computer at work and already hear enough moaning about ie MS Office blah blah. Our machines are all using GLX 460 graphic cards.14:28
syn3rgy We do a lot of Blender work on 1080p screens. Has Nvidia decided to work with Wayland?14:28
IdleOnewayland is not being used in Ubuntu, yet14:29
IdleOnehttps://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-qa/2011-March/001484.html14:30
IdleOneif you would like to help with testing and making sure nvidia works in natty for you ^^14:30
gnomefreakIdleOne: any idea on how to make the dock leave the screen so it doesnt block my view? other than resizing window14:31
syn3rgyIdleOne I was thinking bout in 11.04. I have the alpha in a VM it more or looks the same as 10.10.14:31
IdleOnegnomefreak: nope sorry, I haven't been running natty in a couple months.14:31
yofelsyn3rgy: the last nvidia statement on wayland I heard of (on phoronix) was that they have no intention of supporting wayland anytime soon (for years probably)14:32
yofelso I hope we'll live in an X/Wayland mixed env for a long time14:33
syn3rgyyofel yeah I am in that # too. Seems that Ubuntu is thinking about the Mobile sector. Example Android does not use X.14:34
syn3rgySo in short, if you upgrade to Natty you will not be able to get the fullest out of your Nvidia card or ATI. Just Intel and that is fine with Sandy Bridge.14:37
yofelhm? I'm running natty with nvidia fine here14:37
yofelexcept today would be a bad idea to upgrade14:37
yofelas xserver 1.10 final is just being uploaded14:37
syn3rgyyofel what drivers are you using?14:37
yofelnvidia 270.2914:38
weboideI updated right at the worst moment... :( I fell into that black hole14:38
syn3rgyyofel now that is good news. Are you using xswat?14:38
syn3rgyweboide I have done that many times. lol14:38
weboidesyn3rgy: natty nvidia 270.30 drivers are broken right now for i38614:39
syn3rgyweboide had to do quite a lot dist-upgrades or just force14:39
yofelsyn3rgy: I am, but 270.30 was uploaded to the archive too today, so hopefully tomorrow should be good to upgrade14:39
syn3rgyweboide yeah and they really wont work at all with VMware 3D and have problems with flash.14:40
weboidesyn3rgy: dependencies are broken, so you'll end up with nvidia-current not installable, if you are using i386.14:41
syn3rgyweboide ouch.14:41
syn3rgyweboide I really love ppa-purge if you like living on the cutting edge. Will safely remove xswat and revert any other junk you might have tested.14:43
syn3rgyOK lets take this from square one: My mother upgrades 10.10 to 11.04 with your Nvidia system. Will I get a moaning phone call from her?14:45
yofelIf you use update-manager I don't think it will even let you upgrade today14:45
syn3rgyI mean when it is released.14:46
yofelwell, shouldn't be the case14:46
patdk-wkhow could anyone know that currently?14:46
weboidethat happened to me, now i'm wondering what apt-get did :(14:46
patdk-wkit's still in alpha, not beta or even rc's yet14:47
syn3rgypatdk-wk well if Natty lets you use Unity with xorg that wont be a problem.14:47
yofelweboide: /var/log/apt/history.log should tell you14:47
yofelsyn3rgy: we will still use X as default, wayland is there, but only for experiments14:47
syn3rgyyofel then all is rainbows and pink ponies :D14:48
patdk-wkand on uprgade, unity won't take over, but I'm not sure on that14:48
patdk-wkshouldn't it still default to gnome?14:48
yofelit should default to the last used session, but If they renamed the session name I don't know what gdm will do14:49
mikebeechamIs 11.04 usable for day to day use yet?14:50
weboideyofel: looks like I stayed with 270.29, but got xorg 1.10.0-0ubuntu1, so ABI issue maybe...14:50
mikebeechamor are things still likely to break?14:50
yofelweboide: er... that combination won't even install here14:50
weboideyofel: do you have i386?14:51
yofelamd6414:51
jrrmikebeecham: I updated a couple of my machines a couple days ago to then-latest natty and had no issues14:51
jrrpreviously (a couple months ago) was another story14:51
weboideyofel: that's why, dependencies are good for amd64, but not for i38614:51
yofeloh wait, I got 270.30 with rc2, eeek14:51
yofelbetter not reboot...14:51
patdk-wkhehe14:51
* patdk-wk updates just to see what happens :)14:52
weboideyofel: well you should be good, since you must have xorg 1.10 as well, no?14:52
syn3rgyOh by the way I compiled Gnome to work with multiseat. This is really cool, I have 1 computer with 3 users using their own desktops on i at the same time. Had to patch GDM and consolekit.14:52
yofelweboide: no, as I said, I have rc2 (which provides abi-9) and 270.30 drops support for -914:52
yofelthey were discussing in #ubuntu-x that the abi handling of the nvidia packages isn't great14:53
weboideyofel: ah sorry, I see. =/14:53
patdk-wkdamn it's been awhile, 626 upgraded packages14:53
patdk-wkbut there are missing ones here for amd6414:53
weboideI should probably file a bug for nvidia-current i386 then, so that it gets rebuilt14:55
* gnomefreak doesnt use 64bit on my amd14:55
gnomefreakweboide: it is being done IIRC14:55
yofelweboide: just ping tjaalton in #ubuntu-x if it's still broken in a few hours14:55
weboidealright14:56
* patdk-wk wonders when we will get 3d vmware drivers14:56
genii-aroundyofel: My dist-upgrade about an hour ago messed everything up again and it was groaning again about an xorg abi-9 package. Had to manually apt-get source nvidia-current and run everything, etc14:56
weboidegenii-around: do you have i386?14:57
yofelgenii-around: yeah, I'm doing that too right now14:57
gnomefreakgenii-around: X packages are held back due to nvidia,ati non-free drivers14:57
genii-aroundweboide: No14:57
gnomefreakdist-upgrade should remove X packages14:57
weboidegenii-around: okay14:57
weboideI rebuilt nvidia-current manually, but didn't help..14:57
weboideI guess I'll just wait for official builds14:58
syn3rgypatdk-wk I had to revert my xswat to get VMware to work with 3D in 10.10. VMware told me that they might have it worked out in a few months.14:58
gnomefreaki would think that they are on the PPAs however i wouldnt try it just incase14:58
gnomefreakyofel: did we drop CUPS for the lpd(or whatever they are called)14:59
dnearyHi14:59
dnearyI fucked up14:59
gnomefreakdneary: hi14:59
dnearygnomefreak, Howya14:59

syn3rgyDoes Viralbox work with the newer 3D drivers ?14:59
gnomefreakdneary: please watch your language14:59
dnearygnomefreak, But I really did :)14:59
dnearyI was using a GNOME 2 session with auto-login on Natty15:00
dnearyAnd now GNOME 2 packages have disappeared15:00
dnearySo when I boot, I auto-boot into an empty screen15:00
dnearyAnd I don't know how to disable the "auto-login" option for gdm15:00
gnomefreakyofel: i thought we did in Lucid but cant recall. i hate that i can only use one window do set up printer either its a network printer or i need the URI for the printer. i remember it being alot easier, even auto detecting printers15:00
gnomefreakdneary: in classic desktop or unity?15:01
dnearyI didn't realise the f word was considered off limits here15:01
dnearygnomefreak, Classic15:01
syn3rgy... my gut feeling about this is that I don't like where Canonical is going with this.15:01
dnearyI guess it was an update yesterday or the day before?15:01
gnomefreakdneary: you should see login screen in System->admin>login screen15:01
yofelgnomefreak: hm, I only have a HP network printer, and hplip-gui finds that fine15:01
dnearyI've been dist-upgrading every 2-3 days15:01
gnomefreakunlock it and set it in there15:01
dnearygnomefreak, I see literally an empty screen (Saturn background)15:02
dnearyNautilus is still there, but gnome-panel's gone15:02
gnomefreakyofel: thanks ill try to isntall it15:02
dnearyNo longer installed15:02
gnomefreakdneary: can you open a terminal or get into a TTY?15:02
dnearyAnd metacity doesn't appear to be starting15:02
dnearyI'm on pty115:02
dnearyAh.15:03
gnomefreakdneary: than you have more than 1 problem. it sounds like packages were removed upon upgrae that should not have been15:03
dnearyGot Metacity running now :) and have a gnome-terminal over Jupiter's big red spot15:03
gnomefreaksounds like compiz crashes but could be a number of different things15:03
dnearyBut I started it manually15:03
genii-aroundyofel: I had to go make the nvidia-current/xorg nvidia-current/tls nvidia-current/vdpau dirs in /usr/lib and /usr/lib32  before it successfully made. Also it didn't like some glx file that wasn't a symlink15:03
gnomefreakthan compiz is best bet15:03
dnearygnomefreak, I doubt compiz was the window manager15:03
gnomefreakdneary: it is by default15:04
yofelgenii-around: sounds like multiarch mess :S15:04
gnomefreakor its both by default15:04
dnearyBut as I said when I joined, I'm not "by default" - I was using the gnome classic15:04
dnearyIn fact, I wanted to use gnome-shell, but getting that working was a bit of a hassle15:04
dnearyBut that's another story15:04
genii-aroundyofel: It says at start that it couldn't execute the preinstall script. Likely in there is the issue15:05
gnomefreakyofel: i remeber that package now. i filed a bug on it since it was only QT asked for a gtk build15:05
gnomefreakyofel: do you know of a GTK alternative?15:05
yofelno15:05
dnearyIt seemed like there was a "cleaning out" of some legacy stuff over the weekend15:05
dnearyIs that not correct?15:05
dnearyI think the easy solution would be to just wipe my gdm preferences - are they in /etc/Xorg or ~?15:06
dnearysorry - /etc/X1115:06
gnomefreakoh crap i just lost everything all panels,docks open apps other than terminal15:08
gnomefreaki guess ill be back15:09
dnearygnomefreak, See? :)15:09
dnearygnomefreak, Guess it isn't just me15:09

yofelsince rc2 was pretty short-lived15:18
weboidedoes the other way around work ? 270.30 with 1.10 final? =/15:19

dnearyAnd in the GDM screen, I'm still not seeing the session chooser15:51
dneary(the menus at the bottom of the screen)15:51
dnearySo things are still pretty messed up15:51
dnearyBut hopefully I can still get some work done this afternoon15:51
