[05:23] <orethrius> Just wondering if anyone knows whether BCM4329 is currently broken.
[05:24] <orethrius> Or if I'm just overlooking something fairly obvious on the b43 front.
[09:35] <nperry> In gnome-shell how come the deafult theme isn't working, showing some horrible orange bar
[09:38] <robin0800> nperry, did you install gnome shell?
[09:39] <nperry> Yeah
[09:39] <nperry> I'm in it now
[09:40] <robin0800> nperry, well it works for me after I installed though its unusable as it crashes all the time
[09:42] <nperry> Seems ok so far
[09:43] <nperry> There isn't a serpate package that contains it
[09:45] <robin0800> nperry, any way both unity and unity 2d work
[09:46] <robin0800> nperry, there is a package its in the software centre only for ubuntu 11.10 alpha2
[09:50] <nperry> WHats it called?
[09:57] <robin0800> nperry, suprisingly gnome shell
[10:01] <nperry> I was talking about the theme...
[10:04] <robin0800> nperry, ubuntu 11.10 alpha2 dosn't work with any theme at the moment
[13:02] <BluesKaj> Howdy
[13:08] <penguin42> hey
[13:11] <BluesKaj> had to reinstall ..X was so broken , non of the regular fixes worked
[13:11] <penguin42> what happened?
[13:12] <BluesKaj> 11.04 now , and I think I'll wait til the kde 4.7 packages are done before I upgrade again
[13:13] <BluesKaj> I ssh into my other box to update/upgrade it, but I haven't checked it
[13:14] <BluesKaj> dunno if  X is broken there too
[13:14] <penguin42> how's it broken?
[13:15] <robin0800> BluesKaj, hi very quiet today!
[13:16] <BluesKaj> unresponsive prompt
[13:16] <BluesKaj> hi robin0800
[13:18] <BluesKaj> penguin42, looks like a tty with a prompt , but KB can't communicate ...tried recovery kernel , nomodeset etc ..nothing but that prompt
[13:18] <BluesKaj> no biggie , Ijust reinstalled 11.04 to /
[15:52] <smallfoot-> cant login ubuntu, gnome, ubuntu2d
[15:52] <smallfoot-> it says not found
[15:52] <smallfoot-> failed to load session "ubuntu-2d"
[16:28] <smallfoot-> oneiric sucks!
[16:42] <BluesKaj> yofel, have the KDE RC 4,7 packages all been loaded into the repos yet or are you guys still working on them?
[16:43] <yofel> BluesKaj: https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Ninjas/Packaging - green: uploaded, orange: stuck in source new queue, red: needs fixing, white: not uploaded yet
[16:44] <BluesKaj> ok yofel thanks
[16:48] <IdleOne> yay kubuntu has my printer working :)
[16:51] <BluesKaj> I've been blaming the HPLIP driver but i think the printer has a faulty page loader ...just stops and errors out everytime
[17:01] <IdleOne> I got a Brother mfc240c, brother has linux drivers but they are a pain to install and don't always work. brother-lpr-drivers-bh7 get my printer working but not the scanner.
[17:01] <IdleOne> 1 out of 2 isn't bad.
[17:09] <BluesKaj> heh lexmark has the the worst support (wife's printer) ...no linux drivers
[17:13] <IdleOne> I thought canon was the worst
[17:14] <IdleOne> how would I restart the printer service? I found a possible "fix" to get the scanner working but simple-scan is not seeing it, yet.
[17:15] <airon90> Hi you all! I have a problem, because if I update my pc, new versions of indicators and unity conflict. Should I delete all indicators in order to update Unity or should I report it as a bug?
[17:17] <Ampelbein> airon90: indicators are ported to gtk3, it should be safe to remvoe the gtk2 versions.
[17:17] <BluesKaj> IdleOne, I had a canon printer yrs ago that worked better on debian than on windows :)
[17:22] <IdleOne> hmm well that didn't work
[17:23] <airon90> Ampelbein: http://airon90.titanpad.com/2 What should I do right now?
[17:26] <Ampelbein> airon90: use safe-upgrade.
[17:26] <trism> unity-2d still needs the gtk2 indicators and it hasn't been updated to libindicator6 (it still deps on the confusingly named libindicator3)
[17:28] <airon90> Ampelbein: thank you! Should I report it as a bug, it is an already known problem or it is not a problem and it will be solved normally?
[17:29] <airon90> And another question: how could I set automatic login? I cannot find this option and I don't know why I cannot automatically login :S
[17:32] <trism> airon90: you can configure it in /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf, setting: default-user=username
[17:33] <airon90> trism: So, there isn't any graphical option. Should it be implemented, don't you?
[17:34] <trism> airon90: I don't know if options have been integrated into any guis for it yet, sorry
[17:35] <IdleOne> OMG I got the scanner working! \o/
[17:36] <IdleOne> 4 years I been trying to get this stupid thing going lol
[17:36] <IdleOne> persistence does pay
[17:43] <penguin42> haha - what type is it/what fixed it?
[17:44] <IdleOne> penguin42: brother mfc 240c
[17:44] <IdleOne> always been able to get the printer to work but the scanner was a major hassle.
[17:44] <IdleOne> it now works!
[17:44] <IdleOne> what to scan, what to scan!
[17:44] <IdleOne> I have nothing that needs scanning
[17:44] <penguin42> IdleOne: Was that one of the ones where it didn't print from OpenOffice on Tuesday?
[17:45] <IdleOne> no that wasn't me
[17:45] <penguin42> so what fixed the scanning?
[17:49] <IdleOne> installing the proper driver to begin with and editing /lib/udev/rules.d/40-libsane.rules
[17:55] <IdleOne> the part I was always missing was editing /lib/udev/rules.d/40-libsane.rules and adding the proper rule.
[17:55] <IdleOne> notes duly taken and saved for future :)
[18:53] <Daekdroom> Is it normal to have 4 gwibber-service processes?
[19:32] <trijntje_oneiric> Hi all. I just installed alpha2 but I cant update because the upgrade wants to remove ubuntu-desktop. Any ideas how to work around this?
[19:34] <Daekdroom> trijntje_oneiric, wait.
[19:34] <Daekdroom> Just wait that the dependency issues will eventually be sorted out
[19:35] <Daekdroom> I have about 20 held packages for 3 or 4 days.
[19:36] <trijntje_oneiric> Daekdroom, in my case its all packages, because update-manager freezes/crashes when it encounters this problem
[19:36] <trijntje_oneiric> should I try apt-get to upgrade or will that mess up dependencies even more?
[19:36] <Daekdroom> apt-get upgrade is safe.
[19:37] <Daekdroom> apt-get dist-upgrade would mess up with it, tho.
[19:38] <trijntje_oneiric> ok, thanks. I always thought that apt-get was just the cli way of running update-manager, but then I found out it doesnt handle dependencies very well
[19:40] <robin0800> trijntje_oneiric, you can use sudo aptitude safe-upgrade
[19:44] <trijntje_oneiric> robin0800, ill try that after I install aptitude, thanks
