| broder | chrisccoulson: did you ever make any progress on that dell/fn-f7 weirdness? | 01:08 |
|---|---|---|
| broder | i'm seeing two things that are weird: (1) i see a keypress event come in whenever i dock or undock from *two* devices, the "Video Bus" and the "AT Translated Set 2 keyboard". (2) if i use input-events, both keypresses seem to come in when i dock/undock, but the one from the actual keyboard only gets seen by g-s-d the first time i press another key | 01:11 |
| broder | i can't figure out what would be holding up the keypress event from getting to g-s-d | 01:11 |
| broder | oh, hmm, i guess chrisccoulson is in EU. maybe tomorrow | 01:12 |

| BinaryMan | what am I supposed to do with the files created by bzr branch lp:~gnome3-team/gnome-control-center/ubuntu ? | 16:23 |
| dobey | BinaryMan: well, for what purpose did you branch it? | 16:25 |
| BinaryMan | Recent revisions | 16:26 |
| BinaryMan | + re-enable "System Settings" on session menu | 16:26 |
| BinaryMan | dobey | 16:26 |
| dobey | is the package not in the gnome3-team PPA? | 16:27 |
| BinaryMan | dobey: when I went to install that, I got a very specific message that it could break things. | 16:29 |
| BinaryMan | errr | 16:29 |
| BinaryMan | add the PPA | 16:30 |
| BinaryMan | install is not the right word. | 16:30 |
| dobey | yes, the gnome3 PPA could break things (any change really, *could* break something) | 16:30 |
| dobey | it's a PPA for testing, for a reason | 16:30 |
| dobey | if you build the same package locally, you're not going to avoid breakage | 16:31 |
| dobey | if there is any breakage, that is | 16:31 |
| BinaryMan | dobey: but won't everything in that PPA be available to me? | 16:34 |
| dobey | if you add the PPA, yes | 16:34 |
| BinaryMan | I just want to upgrade gnome-control-center | 16:34 |
| BinaryMan | Nothing else. | 16:34 |
| dobey | but if you want only specific .debs, you can also download only those files, off the launchpad page for the PPA | 16:34 |
| BinaryMan | :/ | 16:35 |
| BinaryMan | I knew that. | 16:35 |

| geser | vvv: emerald got removed because it failed to build in oneiric (bug #831111) | 17:50 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 831111 in emerald "emerald version 0.8.8-0ubuntu1 failed to build in oneiric" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/831111 | 17:50 |
| vvv | geser: 0.9.4 has no problems with the compiz version included in oneiric and it has been around since April | 17:52 |
| geser | then it looks like nobody was interested enough to update the package to 0.9.4 (which would probably also fix this build failure) | 17:53 |
| vvv | geser: what should I do so it is restored in next Ubuntu release? | 17:56 |
| geser | unlikely unless someone steps up to maintain it (update the package regularly) | 17:57 |
| vvv | May I volunteer? Where can I sign up and read procedures, etc? | 17:58 |
| geser | vvv: sure, a good starting place in this case might be https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages | 18:01 |
| geser | feel free to ask any questions you might have (#ubuntu-motu might be better suited than this channel depending on the topic of your question) | 18:01 |
| vvv | Thanks | 18:02 |
| geser | although the package got removed from the archives, the old version is still available through Launchpad, so you might use it for a starting point | 18:03 |

| jtran | hey all, i'm having a couple issues. i'm running oneiric desktop on my macbook pro (2009 model) , and often times the mouse will lockup on me. Didn't happen when i was on natty. | 19:20 |
| jtran | the other issue is the speaker volume is so damn low (both natty and oneiric) | 19:20 |
| jtran | actually one more issue. when i mouse over to the left , the panel doesn't come out. i have to hit the apple 'command' key to force it to pop out | 19:21 |

| TheMuso | RAOF: How much video RAM can the intel GPU use from system RAM? I've got a monitor connected to my thinkpad via a displayport to VGA adapter. The monitor supports 1920x1080, but can only get 1600x900 resolution. | 23:08 |
| TheMuso | The VGA adapter is in use because its connected via KVM, and the KVM can handle the max res of the monitor. | 23:08 |
| RAOF | TheMuso: The intel GPU can use ALL THE RAM!!!! More likely the problem is that the DisplayPort?VGA adapter only supports 2 DP lanes, and that's not technically enough bandwidth to drive a 1920x1080 display. | 23:10 |
| TheMuso | Ah ok. | 23:10 |
| TheMuso | Whats annoying is that the thinkpad has a VGA port, but it doesn't appear to be usable with the intel GPU. | 23:11 |
| TheMuso | I suspect I have to use the NVIDIA GPU to use that port. | 23:11 |
| RAOF | mid.gmane.org/1318278815-31492-1-git-send-email-ajax@redhat.com says hello. | 23:12 |
| RAOF | (A patch to automatically fall back to dithered 6bpp on such adapters) | 23:13 |
| TheMuso | ah ok | 23:13 |
| RAOF | I'm surprised that only the nVidia card is hooked up to the VGA. That's not something I've seen before :) | 23:13 |
| TheMuso | I think that is what was the case, I can't remember whether I connected it post reboot or not, I think I did, but I'll need to check again to be sure. | 23:14 |
| TheMuso | Well it could just be a driver bug/missing functionality somewhere... | 23:15 |
| TheMuso | Let me finish these merges, and I'll change things over and try again. | 23:15 |
| RAOF | No! Surely not! Driver bugs are totally unheard of! | 23:15 |
| TheMuso | lol | 23:16 |
