[00:00] see? the activites thing? i believe it's finally taking shape [00:00] starting to, that is.. [00:00] -_- [00:01] doesn't do much for me - I might try it a bit more; but I tend just to use a lot of desktops - although kde desktop switching isn't as nice as Gnome 2 [00:02] i give you that, but i just cannot get back to gnome2 or unity at this point [from an ubuntu standpoint] [00:03] i dun quite believe in 'many desktops' [00:04] I use 9 :-) [00:04] * kyubutsu chuckles [00:05] you funny [00:05] I have them in a 3x3 setup [00:05] you know kyu means 9 in japanese? [00:05] heh [00:06] no I didn't - that's the 1st obscure fact of the day - and it's only 1am [00:06] if kyu means 9, then what does butsu mean? [00:07] well.. semantically, you could say it translates as 'nine disciplines' [00:07] but it's really just an americanization of .. stuff [00:08] its complicated [00:11] or. it could be more of a japanization of american concepts [00:11] o.0 [00:11] wth [00:11] kde ftw.. bottom line [00:11] nod [00:15] The muon is an unstable subatomic particle with a mean lifetime of 2.2 µs [00:15] :( [00:17] the muon is a chubby electron [00:17] o.0 [00:17] nod [00:18] but not as chubby as a Tau [00:18] i see [00:19] cough mtheory [00:20] i think they used this sort of subatomic particle theory to think off the inFamous [00:20] [game] [00:23] kyubutsu, but what did muon mean in that context? [00:24] nothing. it was MY theory .. [00:24] anyway, muon is halted at 51% :-/ [00:25] abort or not to abort, thats the question [00:26] on libgphoto2-port0 [00:41] My laptop seems to be trying to suspend and failing ( i think due to network manager) when closing the lid on power. I don't want it to even enter suspend on lid close but the setting has disappeared to control this.

I don't want it to even enter suspend on lid close but the setting has disappeared to control this. [02:03] C-S-B, gnome 3 thats a known complaint. when gnome 3 extensions are enabled that may be more easily done. there may be a gsetting you can change [02:04] I also have when I alt+tab, the new window switcher, plus the old one.. any ideas? [02:04] cool, i'll have a look. Excuse my ignorance, where are gsettings [02:05] C-S-B, http://afaikblog.wordpress.com/2011/02/03/on-laptop-lids-and-power-settings/ [02:06] cheers. [02:12] all the makes me real glad i never use a laptop [02:17] Thanks escott : gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugin.power lid-close-ac-action blank incase you cared. :) [02:18] although I do hope suspend gets fixed, worked in Natty, since its something to do with NM, I imagine I cant be the only one? [02:19] C-S-B, thanks... i probably should set that on my own [02:20] cmd failed on mine... [02:23] cjohnston, try using unity --reset to reset compiz and have the old alt+tab disappear. [02:23] escott, must have been a spelling area somewhere working now. [02:23] Be aware that it'll reset your unity/compiz to default, and you might lose custom configuration. === sagaci_ is now known as sagaci [05:25] [GNOME 3] What program package is responsible for writing messages in the lower middle of the screen image?

[12:07] odd , now the app indicator icon in the taskbar disappears while app is open , rather than sticky after it's closed [12:07] im just asking is anyone alive? [12:08] pre-breakfast, so I'm not sure alive is suitable [12:08] #ubuntu [12:08] Hitme: I am alive. [12:08] coffee being consumed here ..trying to wake up :) [12:08] The update manager keeps updating [12:09] when i refresh the repo, it says partial upgrade and a distribution upgrade [12:09] IdleOne: Don't play just for playing. -- I asked several questions, and you did not answer them. [12:09] and its a endless loop [12:10] bullgard4: I did not know the answer so I did not answer [12:10] bullgard6: ^ [12:10] bullgard6: if you don't like the amount/quality of support you are free to ask somewhere else also [12:10] after the partial upgrade, the problem goes away, for a while until i install something or there is a update [12:12] hitme , close it , then in the terminal , sudo dpkg --configure -a , also may need to run sudo apt-get -f install [12:15] 269 not upgraded [12:15] the sudo configure command has no response [12:16] Hitme, there won't be [12:17] Hitme, sudo apt-get -f install [12:17] did that [12:17] 290 packages not upgraded [12:17] 0 updates [12:17] I see you posted in ubuntu as well [12:18] sudo apt-get update [12:19] did that [12:19] still no change [12:20] sudo apt-get upgrade [12:21] 184mb to be upgraded [12:21] yes or no? [12:22] i did it once and it keeps poping up after a while [12:23] its a temporary fix [12:23] Hitme, best to use sudo aptitude safe-upgrade IMHO [12:24] Hitme, your package manager has a bug if it keeps notifying [12:24] thats the probwlm [12:24] and its the exact same packages [12:25] turn notificationsa off and update/upgrade thru the terminal [12:25] Sometimes happened to me in 11.04 as well. Annoying, really. [12:25] which packages [12:25] ? [12:25] core system packages [12:26] like unity, libs, etc..... [12:26] which package manager? [12:26] and im on Alpha 3 [12:26] synaptic [12:27] hmm, I have some issues with synaptic as well, so I removed it , but I run kde anyway and muon seems to be ok for reference purposes. [12:28] im using ubuntu 11.10 Alpha 3 [12:28] thats the latest version [12:29] Hitme, well use aptitude then [12:29] or there is alpha 4 [12:29] yes alpha 3 here ....most ppl in this chat are using it as well [12:29] aptitude command not found [12:29] not by default [12:29] apt-get install it [12:29] and i dont want to have 2 package manager [12:30] Hitme, sudo apt-get install aptitude [12:30] !aptitude | Hitme [12:30] Hitme: aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT. Like other APT front-ends, it can install/remove packages and their dependencies. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptitudeSurvivalGuide [12:30] its outdated [12:31] Hitme, no its not [12:31] and i have doubts on it running 11.10 [12:31] Hitme, it runs fine. [12:32] Hitme, only thing outdated is synaptic which is going to be removed [12:33] how about upgrade from terminal? [12:33] I used aptitude for many yrs , but apt has fianlly been "fixed" and it's as safe as aptitude used to be or more so now [12:33] would it work? [12:34] Hitme, yes of course [12:34] i will try [12:34] BluesKaj, I just love safe-upgrade for a development system [12:35] just asking, what is your opinion about the alpha version so far [12:35] is it better than 11.04 or somewhat worse? [12:36] it's not too bad at the moment [12:36] robin0800, safe-upgrade is used in apt-get as well , but it's not part of the command , from what was reading a few months back [12:36] Hitme: you're using it - so you should know [12:36] few bugs here or there, but it's also fixed one that was really annoying for me [12:37] Hitme: you made statments in #ubuntu that you where using it, [12:37] yes why? [12:38] BluesKaj, no I think only in aptitude [12:38] for me its better than 11.04 [12:38] Hitme: ok - so you don't need opnions, you know if it's better/worse for you [12:39] i tried to uninstall unity on 11.04 and instead it uninstalled gnome [12:39] talk about desktop manager wars [12:39] Hitme: because it depends on gnome, [12:39] Hitme: do you have anything useful to say beyond complaining ? [12:39] yes [12:40] im just giving my opinion [12:40] ok - please don't, as it's coming across as blind complaining [12:40] i hope the new software center would come when its the final version [12:41] looks coo, [12:41] but hidden [12:42] just asking, when i try to install some apps on software center, it say i need to use natty [12:42] what exactly does it say and what application [12:43] like flash player and adobe reader [12:43] what is the exact error [12:43] it says that i need to use natty repo [12:43] and gave a choice to revert or [12:44] I have never seen that. Have you logged if there is a bug logged for it ? [12:44] um no? [12:44] that's worth doing [12:46] you have mixed repos in your sources.list [12:46] it say availabe from natty-partner source [12:46] should have upgraded properly [12:47] but apt-get says its all oneric [12:48] acroread is not available in oneiric yet [12:48] will come later [12:48] ah [12:49] a reinstall perhaps for my system? [12:51] ive not really seen a need for acroreader on my linux installs lately.. could be it has some features i never need. :) [12:51] i mean a ubuntu reinstall [12:53] sorrymy ipad crashed [12:54] thats why i dced [12:55] Heh that will teach you! [12:55] Its going to be a "Tablet Xmas" this year i bet.... [12:55] huh? [12:55] big gift will be some sort of tablet. :) [12:56] i got mine last christmas [12:57] Best Buy guy said they are expecting like 40+ differnt kinds of tablets to be on their shelfs by xmas. they are ging to have to rearange the store. :) [12:57] no ubuntu tablets [12:57] wonder when it will come ouy? [12:59] gtg bye [12:59] tablets don't do much for me ...they won't last , I hear stories about trying to keep scrns from becoming gummed up a real pita [13:00] ipads [13:00] I can kind of see them being useful; haven't got one myself yet [13:00] gummed up screens? Hmm.. gummed where? :) [13:01] the wife likes her phone but wants a bigger screen.. so a tablet is what she 'needs' [13:02] but she dosent need a $500 one. :) [13:02] dr_willis, guess it depends who uses it ...keep it away from kids [13:03] Heh.. its the grandkids that constantly want to play 'talkng tom' on her phone.. [13:03] 3 yr old looks at a phone (any phone) and says 'kitty cat!' [13:04] shes mainly using it for email, and checking weather/websurfing these days.. :) from her bed.. heh.... and as a tv-remote. [13:05] guess 'm just old ...regard ipads as phones with big screens ...who needs a phone that big :) [13:07] people with bad eyesight.. like my wife. :) [13:07] grandaughter is 12 ...Ipad for christmas...I thought that was bit much [13:07] 2 and 5 here.. both boys.. :) wife wants a granddaughter to spoil.... [13:07] oh wait.. hes 2 and a half now.. :) he has to get that half in... [13:08] hes a 'big boy' [13:08] I have 4 grandaughters ...too many ...I can't afford to spoil them [13:08] * jussi reminds people about the channel that ends with -offtopic ;) [13:08] OO is obviously just working too well [13:10] Im still not too sure how unity is supposed to work on tablets... (back to ubuntu chat!) :) [13:10] seems so penguin42 , no real probs right at least ...but I'm on kde 4.7 so it might different in gnome country :) [13:10] now [13:10] dr_willis: ? I'd assumed that was it's aim - big fat buttons down one edge you can prod with a finger [13:10] BluesKaj: That --> machine is on KDE, and this <--- is on Unity [13:10] I wonder when Canonical orders some tablets from a no-name asian company and starts shipping them with ubuntu in their names and with the official support [13:11] penguin42, how is the panel supposed to appear? :) if ya touch the side i guess... [13:12] dr_willis: Stay up all the time? [13:12] penguin42, sorry , you confused me [13:13] You can get some Tegra tablets for £160 - I'm not sure if anyone has tried forcing Ubuntu onto them [13:16] Yep. seeing more and more tablets all the time.. got a cheap one at CVS pharmacy the other day.. but suddendly the Amazon app started crashing on it. :( i was using it as a book-reader. [13:20] buying a tablet at a pharmacy could get confusing [13:27] penguin42, here in Canada there's a retail chain called London Drugs , it's hard to find the drug aisle or pharmacist ..it sells pcs , big screen tvs , stereo systems , speakers :) [13:29] http://www.londondrugs.com/Cultures/en-US/default.htm [13:32] :) had a %25 off cupon. I got the tablet just for watcing videos. and i set it up with a ssh-terminal and keybord. so i can IRC from it. [13:34] sigh. Still no sound on Oneiric [13:35] jussi: pulseaudio -k [13:35] jussi: ^^ fixes things for me [13:35] jussi: pulse hangs frequently, the only way to fix it is to kill it and force it to re-spawn itself [13:35] cdbs: what does that do? [13:35] jussi: it kills pulseaudio so that gnome-session starts it again [13:36] and it also makes sure it is started again :) [13:36] cdbs: I fear for me on kubuntu it wont be helpful, but Ill try [13:36] try it [13:37] jussi: worked? [13:38] I dont even have speakers on my Testing box here.. no idea if sound works for me. [13:39] I just remove pulseaudio ...no need for it here [13:41] cdbs: nope [13:41] :( [13:41] Kmix shows "dummy output" :( [13:41] Hi... i had upgraded from ubuntu 11.04 to 11.10, and i now get an error: incompatible license when i select a kernel and boot..the os boots just fine after that..but the plymouth splash doesnt appear....i am trying to debug the cause of this..any pointers would be appreciated.. [13:44] my ubuntu's internet connection is too slow, it was the same in alpha 2. is it common? [13:47] havent heard many people mention the issue kavurt you wired? wireless? what chipset? [13:47] it's wireless. i have kubuntu natty on the same computer. it's normal [13:49] dr_willis: i have 20 mb connection, natty shows that. but oneiric downloads updates with 10 kb [13:50] jussi, do you absolutely need pulseaudio? [13:51] BluesKaj: doesnt help if I remove it sadly [13:51] then kmix just wont start [13:51] dr_willis: ahterow communications ltd. ar928x wireless adapter [13:52] jussi, what about alsamixer , does it show your soundcard? [13:55] kavurt: nope no issues here [14:06] HI all, can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong. I am trying to install oneiric alpha dvd amd64. I hit small bugs on both install and live so am insatting in text mode. My partition setup is: 10GB sba1 as /boot and the rest of the drive is a logical group where / is a logical volume in that group. but i cannot install grub. red screenerror on text mode [14:06] good afternoon folks [14:08] evening all [14:09] May I ask about development on 11.10? Are there any significant changes from 11.04 in terms of gcc, make, etc? I do a lot of C coding in gedit [14:11] the most significant is --as-needed default [14:11] I don't know that option [14:11] but it only causes problems for buggy builds [14:11] gcc 4.6 has a much improved link time optimizer, thats probably the most significant improvement [14:12] prod , could be you have setup a boot partition where grub needs to be installed , let grub install itself without a flag [14:12] --as-needed avoids linking shared libraries which are not used in the code [14:12] and it requires the commandline used to link to be correctly ordered [14:13] objectes needing symbols before libraries providing them [14:13] ok [14:13] so if one file references another file and there is the opportunity for optimization, can it optimize? [14:14] if compiled with -flto yes [14:14] Say one file calls function() and the second file contains function() which always returns a constant. Can gcc discard the function call entirely? [14:14] yes [14:14] is -flto not default, and if not, why? [14:14] it can pretty much do what -combine -fwhole-program did before [14:14] but much more scalable [14:14] BluesKaj. I am trying to use this partition for xen use and development. Needing much space for kernels and xen and booting into all kinda of environments [14:14] its very new [14:15] before 4.6 many projects could not compiel with flto because it used to much ram [14:15] e.g. firefox [14:15] many of these issues have ben fixed in 4.6 [14:15] but its still a quite ressource intensive operation [14:15] ok false alarm, even though i was getting errors saying grub couldnt be installed it did and i have managed to boot [14:16] prod_, try to install grub to / ? [14:16] / is a logical volume [14:19] ok thx jtaylor [14:21] anyone else seen 'the PyQt4.QtCore module is version 1 but the PyKDE4.kdecore module requires version -1' - and have any idea which package to report it against?

[16:47] * penguin42 thinks so [16:47] all of them [16:50] penguin42, do you feed an audio receiver or any such device or is it strictly pc soundcard connections, and do you feed multiple audio sources/streams to your network ? [16:51] BluesKaj: Very simple - just audio out of stereo socket [16:55] penguin42, then if yo're just listening thru pc speakers and not feeding other sounds over a network then you really don't need pulseaudio ...it's redundant in a setup like yours , alsa should fill your needs [16:56] BluesKaj: It solves the problem of multiple things trying to drive audio at once [16:57] penguin42, for example ? I don't quite understand [16:58] BluesKaj: With just alsa I can't play flash at the same time as my music player running [16:58] Does anyone else have an issue where the unity bar does not come to the front when the pointer is at the left (or top left) of the screen? [16:58] penguin42, but why would you ? [16:58] cjohnston: Doesn't for me [16:58] BluesKaj: ?
