[00:00] poolie, yes [00:02] thanks === MK is now known as Guest93997 [01:15] Hi, I just made a live CD of 11.10 alpha 3 and when it booted it loaded everything the way its supposed to but the mouse was black is this a bug or because the ATI drivers are not installed? [01:34] what does forced fallback mode mean in ubuntu? [02:13] bp0: I don't believe that button does anything in Ubuntu [02:24] huh [02:25] is there some package that allows the fallback mode? [02:25] ive got gnome-shell installed [02:25] if I set the fallback mode button and then restart into the GNOME session it causes an error and fails [02:46] who tried 1110 today [02:50] bp0: that button is supposed to run the Gnome Fallback session (which requires you to have gnome-session-fallback [02:50] and gnome-panel installed) but I don't think the button will work [02:53] oh nm, it does work, it's just not needed since you can pick your session when you log in [02:55] ic [03:03] hi [03:03] when is 1110 stable [03:05] !schedule [03:05] A schedule of Oneiric Ocelot (11.10) release milestones can be found here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OneiricReleaseSchedule [03:05] mrdeb: check that ^ [03:06] can you jsut tell me [03:06] mrdeb: I don't know offhand, but that wiki does. [03:07] ok well i will try it [03:12] who upgraded to ubuntu 11.10 alpha 3? [04:16] hello everyone [04:17] i am using kubuntu 11.10, with kde 4.7, i have installed from daily build, i like to try telepathy-kde, i have added the ppa and even after adding it, i am not able to find the package in muon [04:19] apt find the package [04:20] why didnt the muon packager manager list it === IdleOne changed the topic of #ubuntu+1 to: discussion and support for Ubuntu Oneiric Ocelot | Release schedule: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/OneiricReleaseSchedule | Alpha 3 http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/oneiric/alpha-3/ | Known Issues: Keyboard & mouse not working in X?

[09:32] !checkinstall | adreanalink [09:32] adreanalink: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! [09:33] have the checkinstall be supported by the configure file in the packet i'm installing? [09:40] adreanalink: no, checkinstall just puts the installed files into a package, so the package manager can see it [09:40] ok [09:40] so what's the goal installing with make? [09:42] just read the link, it shows instructions [09:43] yes, it says to me how can I install with checkinstall and I will use it surely [09:44] but now I would know the goal of the make command, thus in the link it says it's not reccomended [09:53] what's the equiv for gconf-editor in oneiric [10:02] sagaci: some settings are still in gconf-editor, others are in dconf-editor [10:03] jbicha: thanks for the advice [11:52] if i only do programming in django/python and use vim mostly, could i install alpha 3 without having problems ? [11:53] jita, well it's alpha, so the usual caveats [11:53] ok will stick with 11.04 for the time being [11:53] bazhang: do you recommend doing dist-upgrade on 11.04 ? [11:53] jita, the previous alpha worked wonderfully well for me, best to keep on th e lookoout here for problems if you do [11:54] jita, version upgrade you mean? [11:54] !dist-upgrade [11:54] A dist-upgrade will install new dependencies for packages already installed and may remove packages if they are no longer needed. Please see !upgrade for the proper way to upgrade to a new version of Ubuntu. [11:54] bazhang: i havent changed the sources yet [11:54] bazhang: no it only shows the upgrading of kernel [11:55] jita, thats not the way to do it [11:55] bazhang: so you dont recommend doing dist-upgrade only apt-get upgrade ? [11:56] bazhang: i dont want to upgrade to alpha [11:56] jita, from 11.04 to 11.10? [11:56] bazhang: no i dont want to upgrade to 11.10 [11:56] dist-upgrade has Zero to do with version upgrade [11:56] bazhang: should i use it on 11.04 ? [11:56] jita, are packages held back? [11:57] bazhang: yes kernel [11:57] bazhang: newer one is available [11:57] jita, which one [11:57] bazhang: 2.6.38 i guess [11:57] lsb_release -a in terminal please [11:59] bazhang: no lsb modules, natty 11.04 [12:00] jita, sure, if you wish, or just wait for the other packages [12:00] bazhang: wait for the other packages ? [12:00] jita, the ones causing the holding back [12:01] bazhang: currently 2.6.38-8 is installed and 2.6.38-10 is available using dist-upgrade [12:01] jita, your choice really. [12:01] bazhang: would you do it ? [12:02] jita, probably not, I'd just wait a day or two for the other packages to arrive, then do the whole lot [12:04] bazhang: apt-get upgrade never installs newer kernels ? [12:05] jita, sure it does. [12:05] bazhang: why doesnt it install 2.6.38-10 then ? [12:05] jita, held back? [12:06] jita: kernel versions usually change the package name, so dist-upgrade is required [12:06] Trewas: is it advised to do that ? [12:06] jita: bazhang apt-get upgrade does not install new kernels [12:06] jita: bazhang just apt-get dist-upgrade does [12:07] jita: well yes, otherwise you won't get the new kernel [12:07] just wondering if there's any workarounds for the automatic login bug, where it doesn't autologin, even if you set it to AL [12:35] guud afternuun fluks [13:34] as of today, i can't login to gnome, just to unity. is it maybe because of today's update to gnome-session? anyone else with that problem? [13:38] diverse_izzue: i seem to have the same problem as you [13:41] oimon, thanks for the confirmation. also, does login take longer than it used to? [13:42] diverse_izzue: i saw the wallpaper for a long time then the nautilus menu appeared , but no gnome-panel etc [13:42] oimon, exactly the same here [13:42] ok, i'll report a bug [13:43] hmm now my unity isn't logging in.. [13:43] ah here it is ..took a long time [13:43] oimon, that's what i meant :-) [13:45] oimon, #821477 maybe you can give it an "affects me too" [13:45] bug 821477 [13:45] Launchpad bug 821477 in gnome-session (Ubuntu) "gnome-session update breaks login to gnome-shell" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/821477 [13:48] waaaaaah ,my dear gnome-shell! [13:51] i still see a battery icon in unity althoguh i have a desktop :-\ [13:51] oimon: I have the same thing, yep ;) [13:51] wondering if it's intended, but will be replaced with a better icon [13:52] It doesn't make sense on a desktop [13:52] i'll raise a bug [13:53] I wasn't sure what to file it against [13:58] h00k: good point [13:58] been looking through gsettings but can't find a way to tell it that it's a desktop [14:02] i assume gnome-power-manager? [14:04] why why oh why!!! [14:04] why is chromium using over 5GBs of ram??? [14:04] I want my RAM back!!!!! https://plus.google.com/110546133384368429145/posts/4DjriLZaUNF [14:05] BUGabundo, i got a "404" on that link :( [14:05] coz_: what's your Plus id? [14:06] oh [14:06] s/id/handler/ [14:06] was it a rhetorical quiestion? because about:memory tells u why :) [14:06] heh, stil lbetter than my firefox using 24gigs [14:07] oimon, you have a ups connected? [14:07] patdk-wk: nope [14:07] Ialways get the battery icon on my systems with the usb ups cable plugged in [14:08] (gnome-settings-daemon:1420): power-plugin-WARNING **: not connected [14:08] i get this in .xsession-errors [14:08] i think it affects all desktop users [14:08] oimon: if I could even use my laptop before I killed it !! [14:34] hello. I just upgraded from 11.04 to 11.10, and my PC hangs on boot with: "Checking battery state..." [14:35] I don't even have a battery. [14:35] TomSlominski: I had that long ago... it fixed itself [14:35] using a daily image? [14:36] no, update-manager -d [14:36] right [14:36] beats me [14:36] try in recovery mode [14:37] okay [14:39] its loading really slowly... my PC has been behaving weird recently, i think my processor might have exploded or something. [14:40] I am loving the recovery background! :D Am I just resuming now? [14:41] update/clean packages first [14:41] or is it fix broken packages, maybe, then clean [14:42] charlie-tca: "dpkg Repair broken packages"? [14:42] sounds right [14:42] it just goes and looks for updates, if nothing is broken. [14:44] okay, should I resume normal boot now? [14:46] okay, i resumed and ive got a text login prompt. ill login and try to start lightdm [14:46] few questions re oneiric: 1. Has aptitude become noticably slower? 2. Is "man gsettings" broken? [14:48] TomSlominski: MIght have to do a restart yet. [14:48] it lives! [14:48] hv: No manual entry for gsettings [14:48] I think it's really weird how Ubuntu sees some wi-fi networks without having Wi-Fi hardware connected to it. [14:49] hv: I try not to use aptitude [14:49] wow, Unity is so much faster than Gnome 3. [14:49] hv: why? what is wrong with aptitude? [14:49] For me? It is much easier to use apt-get or synaptic package manager [14:49] oops! [14:50] *facepalm* [14:50] I am just burn U 10.10! :) [14:50] Bronek: you mean 11.10? [14:50] *burning [14:50] sorry 11.10 :p [14:51] i just updated from 11.04 to alpha my laptop which has btrfs on /. because btrfsck is useless I had removed the symlink from fsck.btrfs to btrfsck which made the 11.04 boot skip the check, but now the 11.10 boot is complaining. any idea why that would be [14:51] hv: I'm not on Oneiric on this computer, but manpages.ubuntu.com claims that the manpage for 'gsettings' exists, but it appars to be blank. Is that what you're seeing? [14:52] will there be no option to use a screensaver or to never set the screen to go blank in 11.10 ? (all I can see is to just let it go blank and that option you cannot disable just set different times) [14:53] /usr/share/man/man1/gsettings.1.gz says Man generation disabled. ... [14:54] where would the manual be then? [14:54] hv: I'd file a bug, unless its mentioned in the changelogs since the version in natty. [14:55] against libglib2.0-bin? [14:55] Yes. [14:55] sure. === kancerman__ is now known as kancerman [15:05] gnome-panels are totoally gone, right? I need just one panel that apparently didn't make it to Unity, [yet]. It is the one corresponding to gnome-system-monitor, which shows CPU/Network/Mem/etc usage. Perhaps you know about it or maybe there is an alternative? [15:06] * patdk-wk so far can't stand unity or gnome3 [15:07] and still using gnome-panel in oneiric [15:07] patdk-wk: how? [15:07] what do you install to get them? [15:08] thought I just installed gnome-panel [15:08] oh, and with which session type? [15:09] * patdk-wk finds where he put 11.10 [15:10] btw, what happened to "User defined session"s? I have a ~/.xsession but noone seems to pick it up. [15:10] gnome classic [15:22] is there any way to configure the ubuntu panel? [15:23] unity* [15:23] +1 ! [15:25] hmm? I am running 11.10 [15:25] TomSlominski: I mean I would be happy, too, if someone answered that question [15:25] hv: Oh, right :D [15:26] TomSlominski: btw, what would you like to change? add new items to the "panel"? [15:26] hv: stop it from autohiding [15:26] the left panel you mean? there was a setting for that [15:26] hv: yeah [15:27] I could access it in gconf-editor. I am looking to find that setting in gsettings which does not have a manual, yet. [15:27] I am looking for the same thing, as we speak! [15:30] Right, time to sort out GRUB :) [15:33] TomSlominski: Apparently settings are now kept in ~/.config/dconf/user which is a binary file. Gonna find out how to access this database ... [15:34] hv: there is a way of accessing dconf, I think. let me get my Linux Format out :) [15:35] installing dconf-tools ... [15:36] hv: apparetnly there is a "gsettings command line tool" [15:37] TomSlominski: yeah, but I cannot find the manual for gsettings [15:37] and you can do things like: "gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-theeme 'Clearlooks'" [15:38] hv: I'm under Fedora 15 right now and I've got the manual for gsettings [15:39] hv: is there any way to export it? [15:39] I guess gsettings is kinda modelled after "defaults" in OSX. [15:40] which implies it is fast, and you should access it through "gsettings COMMMAND ..." commands [15:40] dconf-editor from the package dconf-tools is good so far. [15:40] I just need to find the name of the key [15:41] can you upload the man page somewhere? (probably the file /usr/share/man/man1/gsettings.1.gz) [15:42] or actually, let me search for it online ... [15:43] ok, found one, nevermind [15:50] got to blow up dconf imported keys (from gconf). brb. === sdx24 is now known as sdx23 [16:58] hi all [16:58] can i receive support about ubuntu 11.10 here ? [16:59] after an apt-get update , upgrade .. it stop to works (before it was working) i'm on a macbookpro 2.2 [16:59] i instaslled the mac iso image [16:59] .. the problem is the battery check step (i know my battery is in a bad state .. but it's really odd it doesn't allow me to boot) [17:00] it stop the boot promp at the step : check battery state [17:01] when did you upgrade? [17:01] epifanio: boot to recovery mode and try "dpkg Repair broken packages" [17:03] charlie-tca: what's the syntax to use in the shell ? [17:04] you don't get a recovery menu? [17:04] iìm in root shell [17:04] with networking [17:04] sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [17:05] ok tring [17:05] I think that does almost the same as repair in the menu [17:05] make sure lightdm-greeter-gtk is installed [17:06] good point, that needs to be there too [17:16] suspend doesn't seem to be working too well for me. [17:18] yeah A BUG [17:19] how do i get adwaita to work on oneric ? [17:20] sans the not so pretty windo borders of the light themes [17:23] i tried to do upgrade dist-upgrade .. at boot i have again "checking battery state and no boot" [17:23] i didn't find a opackage lightdm-greeter-gtk [17:24] epifanio: [17:24] drop to tty1 [17:24] fire x [17:24] using startx for now [17:24] :D [17:24] then go fix it [17:28] dsathe: how to drop to tty1 ? i tried ctrl+alt+f1 .. but doesn't work, i'm in the root shell with networking [17:29] ok [17:30] i did it .. i'm logged in and X is working [17:30] dsath : what about the step "then go to fix it" [17:31] thanks to suggest me startx !!! i did it from root : su username ; startx [17:37] peps, i've a problem i cannot enter neither unity shell nor gnome-shell [17:38] just a blackscreen appears-(the cursor doesn't move), but i can acces from guest acount [17:38] install gtk-lightdm greater [17:38] not too sure of exact package name [17:38] look for it in synaptic [17:42] someone knows hot to determinate the problem? [17:43] epifanio: lightdm-gtk-greeter is the real name [17:43] thanks! [17:45] hi, how can I install non patched upstream packages? [17:47] jamesbond2: er, like...old packages? or, what do you mean? [17:48] i need do some testing for gnome because of a bug [17:54] the alpha 3 repos are up, right? [17:54] update-manager -d can't find the new release [17:54] now all works fine, thank you very much to All for your powerfull support!!! [17:54] :) [19:18] is there a workaround or something for the cursor movement delay after key press??? [19:18] cursor does not move for a second or so :/ [19:18] its gnome specific, does not happen in KDE [19:36] i cannot enter neither unity shell nor gnome shell, i always get a black screen, but i can use the guest session.hpw i determine what's the problem? [19:40] guest-m9hLDG: for me, it took a long time before either of those work for the first time. is your hard disk led blinking while the screen is blank? [19:41] hv, no [19:42] hv, i've use gnome-shell it was working a few days ago [19:43] perhaps you need to move your old configurations out of the way. at least temporarily move ~/.config, ~/.gconf, ~/.local to another directory, try again, and see if it is still the same. Also look at ~/.xsession-errors and see if you find any clues there. [19:43] hv, ok, wait a while [19:44] first check the ~/.xsession-errors, though [19:44] hv, it doesn't exist [19:44] i cannot move my folders because of i'm in a guest session [19:44] will try to do in console mode [19:48] hv, done, i'll reboot [19:54] hv, didn't work, still get black screen [20:18] hi all [20:19] hey MistaMaze [20:19] is it possible to use gnome3 without the shell but with the gnome-panel in oneiric? [20:19] to have gnome-core3 but gnome2-feeling? [20:20] MistaMaze: install gnome-session-fallback and then select Gnome Classic on the login screen [20:20] that's all? [20:21] MistaMaze: yes, assuming you have a default ubuntu-desktop install of oneiric [20:21] i like to get rid of these nasty unity/gnome-shell crap (but need newest ubuntu version for full sandy bridge support) [20:22] and other desktops (fvwm,awesome,kde) didnet attract me that well [20:23] thanks trism for ya help [20:24] i will give a try on this fallback-packet [20:24] bye [20:33] hello again [20:37] gnome-session-fallback worked fine. is it also possible to get my old gnome2-look back? do i need to install more packages for this? [20:38] Nope, it's not possible. [20:38] The old gnome-panel is replaced for good and the current one is what you get in gnome-session-fallback [20:38] That is, not customizable and mimetizing gnome shell [20:39] ok [20:39] holding down Alt while right-clicking things in gnome-panel 3 tends to be useful, btw [20:41] how do I run Gnome3 in Ubuntu 11.10 ? I know I need gnome-shell package installed.. I can see that lightDM has option gnome from it sessions.. But what do I miss? I still can't get it working [20:41] cant get it working here either xxy . gnome session here just loaded Unity. [20:42] dr_willis: here it doesn't even load unity. It seems to try loading some fallback for Gnome3 (something like gnome 2.30) but it can't load that as well [20:43] gnome3 is still a work in progress i guess [20:45] ubuntu dev releases aren't generally usable for me until beta or RC anyway :P [20:54] rww: LIES!!!!!! [20:54] as you can all see, using crack builds of Ubuntu may render you less than sane. [20:55] :) [20:56] funkyHat: said stable software is for grandparents and servers.
