xelister2.6.38-10-generic08:23
xelisterGet:1 http://extras.ubuntu.com maverick Release.gpg [72B]08:24
xelisterit would seems so, cwillu08:24
cwillu!info linux-meta maverick08:24
ubot4cwillu: Package linux-meta does not exist in maverick08:24
cwillu!info linux maverick08:25

xelisterhm?08:25

cwilluI'm guessing you installed it from another ppa?08:28
xelisternope...08:28
xelisterwtf.08:28
xelisterhow to check where from it was installed?08:28
cwillucheck your /etc/sources.list and /etc/sources.list.d/08:28
xelisteryeah, just maveric there08:28
xelisterhow to verify from what repo it was installed?08:29
cwillusynaptic | origin might tell you something08:29
xelisterindeed it is not in my current packages...  E: I wasn't able to locate file for the linux-image-2.6.38-10-generic package. This might mean you need to manually fix this package.08:29
cwilluif it's in "local", then you installed it via debs directly08:29
xelistercould dpkg -i  of ati drivers pooled that kernel in?08:29
cwilluno; dpkg -i doesn't download dependencies, so unless you included it on the dpkg -i line...08:30
cwilluoh, you know what08:30
cwilludo you have -proposed enabled?08:30
cwilluif so, you really should be subscribed to ubuntu-devel-announce@lists.ubuntu.com08:31
xelisteryes :[08:31
cwilluso that you get lovely notices like these08:31
* xelister *@&$#!%^!08:31
cwillu"Today we released another round of Linux kernel updates to08:31
cwillulucid/maverick/natty-proposed. However, the proposed natty update08:31
cwillu(2.6.38 based kernel) was accidentally copied to lucid-proposed and08:31
cwillumaverick-proposed, and thus had been on the master archive.ubuntu.com08:31
cwillubetween 09:00 and 14:00 UTC."08:31
xelisterwas accidentally copied to lucid-proposed ....  :don't care face:08:32
cwillu"-proposed" is for those wanting to help test updates, not just a fancy way to get things a bit quicker08:32
* xelister :seriously: ???08:32
cwilluyou're rapidly losing my sympathy08:32
xelisterso is ubuntu ;)08:32
cwilluif you don't want things to break, don't enable proposed08:32
cwilludon't blame this on ubuntu08:32
xelisterdowngrading to normal kernel is possible?08:32
cwillugoogle for the text I pasted, you'll find instructions08:33
cwilluand then disable -proposed08:33
xelisterthen reinstall debian ;)08:33
cwillu"you must be this tall to use the package manager" :p08:33
cwilluwhat, the folks who disabled the random number generator in openssl?08:34
cwillupeople make mistakes.  experimental repositories are for catching those mistakes08:34
cwilluif you enable the experimental repositories, you're going to find things break once in a while08:35
cwillulet me guess, you also use btrfs (without backups), and whine to the list when the experimental filesystem eats your data?08:35
xelisterbtrs was fun to do that08:35
xelisterI should really stop testing new linux software other then the one I actually develop08:36
xelister*fs08:37
cwillulol, that was you in #btrfs08:38
cwilluand in fact we had this same conversation :p08:38
xelisteryeap, milions of broken things to bumb into08:48
xelisterha it literally costed me 25 usd08:53
xelisterfirst time I can calculate production loss so detailed -> stoped bitcoin generation ;)  Anyway, funny bug good that it is resolved... so I had to look into the Natty's amd-dont-work bug a bit earlier thanks to it.  Btw, so now on 11.04 amd's fglrx does work without problems, are theses .38 patches applied tehre08:54
maxbIf a bug is a real bug, but is a bug in d-i, so cannot be fixed without an image respin, is it appropriate to Won't Fix it? If so, please do so to bug 68139610:07

brendandI think this bug is 'Medium' importance because it is a usability issue that does not limit the functionality of a core application:17:09

ubot4Launchpad bug 783534 in nautilus (Ubuntu) "Move to Workspace have to be pressed twice (affects: 4) (heat: 18)" [Undecided,Confirmed]17:09
pedro_brendand, i don't think that's a nautilus issue17:11
brendandpedro_ - can i ask why?17:12
brendandpedro_ - do you reckon compiz then?17:12
pedro_brendand, cause nautilus is not a window manager, that's probably a compiz bug17:13
pedro_brendand, yup sounds like it17:13
brendandpedro_ - i'm suspecting now it only happens the first time you do it within a session. logging out to check17:15
brendanddang, now i can't reproduce it :(17:19
