[01:03] <s-fox> Goodbye
[03:22] <gyyrog> hello
[07:59] <Myrtti> moin
[08:11] <AlanJenkins> morning
[08:30] <Psychobudgie> brobostigon, that issue with the video flashing started again
[08:31] <Psychobudgie> brobostigon, think I've found the culprit though, it's compiz by the looks of things. If I disable compiz while running an opengl title the issue goes away
[08:36] <AlanJenkins> Psychobudgie: does that happen on opengl games and stuff too or just video playback?
[08:41] <Psychobudgie> AlanJenkins, the issue only occurs when running some opengl titles (minecraft, warzone 2100)
[08:42] <Psychobudgie> AlanJenkins, my display starts flashing black, as if desktop effects are switching on and off
[08:42] <Psychobudgie> doesn't occur at any other time and the only way to stop it happening is to run classic with no effects
[08:43] <Psychobudgie> there are no errors reported in the logs when it happens
[08:52] <AlanJenkins> which graphics driver are you using mate?
[08:54] <Psychobudgie> latest nvidia from repo
[08:55] <AlanJenkins> mmm think I may have had that problem many moons ago, let me see if I can remember what it was (I fixed it so compiz worked without causing the flickering)
[08:55] <AlanJenkins> think it was an xorg.conf option
[08:56] <Psychobudgie> I was thinking along those lines but can't find any reference
[08:59] <Psychobudgie> brb
[09:13] <brobostigon> good morning everyone,
[09:39] <AlanJenkins> morning brobostigon
[09:39] <brobostigon> morning AlanJenkins
[10:14] <daubers> morning
[10:14] <bigcalm> Afternoon
[11:05] <Neoti_Laptop> hi all jusy about the buy a Dell inspiron R15 N5010 and would like to make sure there are no problems with ubuntu 11.04 64bit on there... i have had a look on the ubuntu certyfied hardware and i can see inspiron R15 but no mention of 5010... any help ?
[11:07] <brobostigon> Neoti_Laptop: try a live medium, besttest. :)
[12:25] <JGJones> I've been trying to configure my ddclient for updating dyndns and opendns - it works for opendns, but it's not updating my dyndns - getting this error "FAILED:   updating gwallgofi.dyndns.org: nohost: The hostname specified does not exist in the database"
[12:25] <JGJones> gwallgofi.dyndns.org does exist by the way, and have the correct ip address, and is set to dynamic ip (default in ddclient)
[12:29] <JGJones> my ddclient conf for dyndns as followed - http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/636865/
[12:45] <AlanJenkins> JGJones: is that the order the lines come in in your ddclient.conf?
[12:45] <JGJones> AlanJenkins, yes it is
[12:46] <AlanJenkins> sec just gonna post something in the pastebin
[12:46] <AlanJenkins> see if you order them the same way as this if it starts working
[12:46] <AlanJenkins> just a guess =)
[12:47] <AlanJenkins> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/636871/
[12:47] <AlanJenkins> may make no difference at all but its worth a try
[12:48] <JGJones> hmm
[12:48] <JGJones> it does
[12:49] <JGJones> I now get an invalid login...at least it's going somewhere
[12:49] <AlanJenkins> good =)
[12:50] <czajkowski> gord: make it back ?
[12:50] <AlanJenkins> think when it sees a server line it expects the things that describe that server to come after
[12:50] <AlanJenkins> so it wouldnt have set the protocol to dyndns2
[12:54] <AlanJenkins> any luck JGJones
[12:54] <AlanJenkins> ?
[12:57] <JGJones> not sure how to parse login= line
[12:57] <JGJones> my username is jgjones so it's saying login=jgjones
[12:57] <JGJones> and it's invalid
[12:57] <JGJones> so tried it as login='jgjones' and login="jgjones" and no joy either
[12:59] <JGJones> i put the login under the gwallgofi.dyndns.org line btw
[12:59] <AlanJenkins> sec
[13:01] <AlanJenkins> aha just noticed something else too
[13:01] <AlanJenkins> have you got backslashes on the end of the lines?
[13:01] <MartijnVdS> continuation \o/
[13:02] <AlanJenkins> indeed MartijnVdS =)
[13:06] <AlanJenkins> JGJones: try set it to be this http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/636877/
[13:06] <AlanJenkins> obv put your password in
[13:10] <StevenR> hrrm. anyone use daap? I'm streaming a podcast from my server (the ubuntu-uk one actually)... but I can move backwards and forwards ... Like I missed a few seconds because of some outside noise.
[13:10] <StevenR> but I can't seem to make banshee or rhythmbox go backwards
[13:10] <MartijnVdS> StevenR: what kind of daap server do you use?
[13:10] <MartijnVdS> it might not support seeking
[13:10] <StevenR> mt-daapd
[13:10] <StevenR> ahh.
[13:11] <StevenR> MartijnVdS: I'm using the natty-packaged version of mt-daapd
[13:11] <MartijnVdS> I've never used mt-daapd myself, sorry
[13:11] <AlanJenkins> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firefly_Media_Server << its not been maintained for a while
[13:12] <AlanJenkins> may be worth checking for a more actively maintained one, quite possible the version you have there does not support seeking as StevenR stated
[13:12]  * MartijnVdS switched to DLNA/UPnP
[13:13] <MartijnVdS> those daemons are well-supported, because there are lots of devices (non-apple) that support it
[13:13] <StevenR> MartijnVdS: do you know the name of a daemon I could install to do that?
[13:14] <MartijnVdS> mediatomb used to be great, don't know if it still is
[13:15] <AlanJenkins> yep mediatomb is good
[13:15] <StevenR> (really, I want to have my library on my server, and have two "controls" - I want to play the media out of my laptop's sound card OR control from my laptop and play it out through the server's speakers)
[13:15] <MartijnVdS> and you need a plugin for rhythmbox/banshee on the client end (rhythmbox-plugin-coherence or built-in)
[13:15] <AlanJenkins> StevenR: mpd sounds like a good idea
[13:16] <MartijnVdS> not built-in.. gmm
[13:16] <AlanJenkins> mpd can be setup for that
[13:16] <AlanJenkins> the daemon can be running on a remote machine and has various clients to control playback on the server
[13:18] <AlanJenkins> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MPD
[13:18] <StevenR> AlanJenkins: yeah, I was gonna use mpd for "case 2"
[13:18] <AlanJenkins> heh great minds =)
[13:19] <StevenR> but mpd is basically only a control protocol, right? I can't stream the media to my laptop with it?
[13:19] <AlanJenkins> you kind of can
[13:19] <StevenR> oh?
[13:19] <AlanJenkins> you use pulseaudio to transmit the sound from the server to the laptop
[13:19] <AlanJenkins> will require some messing about to get that setup though
[13:21] <AlanJenkins> if you did setup it that way though you can have both of the things you asked for
[13:21] <AlanJenkins> you can use sonata to remotely control the music the server is playing
[13:22] <AlanJenkins> and you can then also tell it to redirect the played audio to your laptop
[13:22] <StevenR> oooo
[13:22] <MartijnVdS> Wow.. that's similar music:
[13:23] <MartijnVdS> "1000000% similar" in banshee :)
[13:24] <AlanJenkins> lol yeah that sounds pretty similar =), infact must be the same track recorded at the same second in the same place by the same guy
[13:25] <MartijnVdS> yeah except it's not
[13:25] <StevenR> MartijnVdS: sure it's not a hardlink ;)
[13:25] <MartijnVdS> I think last.fm added some extra precision on the end (.0000) and banshee is ignoring the .
[13:25] <StevenR> ooops
[13:26] <MartijnVdS> StevenR: I'm sure, I've never heard of the artist :)
[13:28] <AlanJenkins> this looks like it could be interesting for you too StevenR
[13:28] <AlanJenkins> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ampache
[13:28] <AlanJenkins> infact that would probs be easier to setup than messing with pulseaudio
[13:28] <AlanJenkins> as pulse can be a pita sometimes
[13:30] <AlanJenkins> what I would recommend you do though is get mpd setup on the server and sonata on your laptop, for local playback on the laptop it may be better to setup upnp on the server to share to the laptop
[13:42] <StevenR> AlanJenkins: yeah, I was thinking that would be simpler, using mediatomb
[13:42] <StevenR> or ampache
[13:43] <JGJones> AlanJenkins, getting hostname does not exist error now with your proposed changes...I'll leave it for later as gotta pop out but thanks for your help anywya :)
[14:55] <matti> MartijnVdS: Hey :)
[14:56] <matti> MartijnVdS: Would you care to try again with the invites? I've got two e-mails this morning but they seem to be expired already.

[17:10] <rakshasa73> hallo!
[17:10] <rakshasa73> i'm searching for a way to hide my ubuntu host from windows network resources over my lan. Can someone help me?
[17:41] <jacobw> disable the things that identify ubuntu to windows networking things
[17:43] <rakshasa73> how please?
[20:14] <Neoti_Laptop> ok i can confirm that Ubuntu 11.04 and the Dell R15 N5010 work perfectly fine, all the keys and function work right out the box with no tweaks
[20:15] <Neoti_Laptop> though i am stuck at 60h for the screen res... as ideas how to up this
[21:25] <AlanBell> Neoti_Laptop: you can't on a laptop or lcd display (they don't really work like that)
[21:26] <Neoti_Laptop> dam..........
[21:26] <Neoti_Laptop> oh well
[22:28] <matti> :)
[22:28] <brobostigon> :)
