| roothorick | okay, 1) what happened to the Appearance icon in the control panel? 2) How do I disable compositing, at least temporarily? | 00:09 |
|---|---|---|
| Daekdroom | roothorick, 1) I think "User Interface" is what you're looking for and 2) You cannot use Unity and compositing. Log in Unity2D session. | 00:12 |
| Daekdroom | *use Unity without compositing | 00:12 |
| roothorick | wait, so there isn't a session option in control panel anymore? | 00:15 |
| Daekdroom | What do you mean by session option? | 00:15 |
| Daekdroom | I mean, what did it use to do? | 00:16 |
| roothorick | there was an option somewhere in CP that let you switch your default session | 00:23 |
| roothorick | ah whatever | 00:23 |

| trism | litropy: that seems like a lot of warnings being written to stderr, modifying /usr/share/dbus-1/services/indicator-datetime.service to look like this http://paste.ubuntu.com/809316/ might give you some clues | 03:57 |
| trism | litropy: seems like there should be a better way, but this works, it should write a log to /tmp/indicator-datetime-*.log | 03:58 |
| litropy | hmm ... I'll spend the extra $11 for more functionality. I like what he's got going, though. | 04:01 |

| litropy | trism, processing ... | 04:08 |
| litropy | trism, I'm gonna have to use vim ... this is horrible. | 04:20 |
| trism | litropy: why is that? | 04:20 |
| litropy | the whole gui is frozen, except for my cursor. so, I'm ctrl+alt+f1'ing it. | 04:21 |
| litropy | lol 5 second delay in typing characters | 04:22 |
| litropy | k, vi, then ... | 04:23 |
| litropy | got it open. entering your mod | 04:24 |
| litropy | Either I don't understand vi, or it's being really weird. Seems like both. My cursor won't go past the end of a line, so when I carriage-return, the last character goes to the next line. Furthermore, backspace ... just puts the cursor back a space. | 04:44 |

| trism | litropy: yes | 05:08 |
| litropy | thanks. | 05:10 |
| litropy | trism, It's doing the same thing even when I set time to Manual. | 05:18 |
| trism | litropy: you should definitely file a bug with indicator-datetime, (or maybe with one of the geoclue packages) with the information you found, it shouldn't be sending so many address-provider-changed events | 05:24 |

| alkisg | Hi, is there any option for unity alt+tab switcher to NOT group similar windows? It's a real pain to switch between 2 gedit windows with the keyboard... | 07:17 |
| alkisg | I press alt+tab once to have the windows list, then 10 times to cycle between my other windows, then wait 2 seconds in the gedit button so that the 2 gedit window previews are shown, and then try to read the thumbnail to decide which is the gedit window I'm in and which one is the other I want to get to. | 07:17 |
| alkisg | I installed the compizconfig-settings-manager and saw some options for the unity switcher there, but there was no option to never group similar windows | 07:19 |
| snadge | alt ` (to the left of 1) | 07:21 |
| Ian_Corne | or alt ² | 07:22 |
| Ian_Corne | if you're belgian/french | 07:22 |
| snadge | but if you're french you would've surrendered before you got the opportunity to do that | 07:23 |

| Rovanion | How come that traceroute6 is installed by default but not traceroute? | 07:51 |

| litropy | Hi, all. I filed the folllowing bug report last night. Essentially, I'm looking for a stop-gap solution in the mean time. This might be either fooling indicator-datetime or geoclue into thinking everything is okay. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-datetime/+bug/918546 | 17:34 |

| trism | litropy: out of curiosity, you don't have any other geoclue providers installed other then geoclue-ubuntu-geoip right? | 17:48 |
| litropy | trism, how do I check? | 18:36 |
| trism | litropy: dpkg -l '*geoclue*' | 18:40 |
| litropy | geoclue | 18:40 |
| litropy | geoclue-provider | 18:40 |
| litropy | geoclue-ubuntu-geoi | 18:41 |
| litropy | geoclue-yahoo | 18:41 |
| litropy | libgeoclue0 | 18:41 |
| litropy | end | 18:41 |
| trism | litropy: are both geoclue-yahoo and geoclue-ubuntu-geoip ii? | 18:42 |
| trism | litropy: if so you should try uninstalling geoclue-yahoo, maybe there is some conflict between the two | 18:43 |
| litropy | ii, un, un, ii, ii, respectively. So that's a negative. | 18:44 |
| trism | litropy: oh so only geoclue-yahoo is installed? | 18:46 |
| litropy | trism, yes | 18:46 |
| litropy | trism, try installing geoip? maybe that's what's up ... | 18:48 |
| trism | litropy: in that case I would install geoclue-ubuntu-geoip and then uninstall geoclue-yahoo and see what happens (likewise you could try geoclue-manual since it seems like that shouldn't send any updates without user interaction) | 18:48 |
| trism | litropy: but I would try the ubuntu one first, since that seems to be the default in a precise install | 18:48 |
| litropy | trism, will do today and report back. Thanks for your help | 18:54 |
| RambJoe | does anyone here have an x-fi titanium hd? | 18:57 |
| litropy | trism, I went ahead and did it. I even left geoclue-yahoo in, and now everthing is golden. | 18:58 |
| BluesKaj | RambJoe, why , what's the problem ? | 18:59 |
| litropy | trism, it seems when I upgraded to 12.04, geoclue-geoip wasn't tied into indicator-datetime as a dependency. | 18:59 |
| litropy | I've commented out your dbus mod for duture use. Thanks again for all your help. | 19:00 |
| litropy | future* | 19:00 |
| RambJoe | well i see ubuntu 12.04 now supports it | 19:02 |
| RambJoe | but i can't select "headphone" as the connector | 19:02 |
| RambJoe | so i cant actually get any sound out of it | 19:02 |
| BluesKaj | RambJoe, pulseaudio installed? | 19:02 |
| RambJoe | this is pretty much a stock install atm | 19:03 |
| RambJoe | pulseaudio is already the newest version. | 19:03 |
| RambJoe | so yeah its installed, should it be? | 19:05 |
| BluesKaj | have you setup alsamixer , RambJoe , all ctrls to 90% minimum, no M in any boxes | 19:05 |
| RambJoe | i'll do that now | 19:05 |
| BluesKaj | RambJoe, some cards don't need pulseaudio, and can run everything with just alsa but i'm not familiar with yours so | 19:06 |
| RambJoe | one of the boxes has "MM" | 19:07 |
| BluesKaj | not sure if you need pulse or not | 19:07 |
| BluesKaj | MM means it's muted , use the M key to unmute | 19:07 |
| RambJoe | still nothing D: | 19:09 |
| RambJoe | its weird though because in the sound settings where you select the connector | 19:09 |
| RambJoe | when ever i select Analogue Output / Headphones 1 or 2 | 19:10 |
| RambJoe | when ever i like drag the volume bar or do anythig, it goes back to Analogue Output / Speaker | 19:10 |
| BluesKaj | RambJoe, I have to go for a while , check this http://www.piotrkrzyzek.com/solved-creative-x-fi-titanium-ctxfi-on-ubuntu-11-10/ | 19:12 |

| Essobi | Anyone having a problem on the latest precise updates? My ati video is acting really weird now.. | 19:57 |
| Essobi | The desktop is unusuable unless I hookup a second screen... | 19:57 |
| Essobi | Lively crowd today. | 20:02 |
| c_smith | Hello, I'm wondering if there is a possibility that the fact that I get a Kernel Panic on startup when booting just the liveCD of Ubuntu 12.4 could be related to hardware, or if it's a bug, and if it's a bug where I would check on whether it was fixed. | 20:17 |
| BluesKaj | c_smith, how old is the live-cd and is it from a daily build more than 2 weeks old ? | 20:34 |
| Essobi | Seriously? No one having problems with Unity and ATI Radeon and the latest updates? | 20:38 |
| c_smith | it was about a week ago or more, yeah | 20:38 |
| c_smith | downloading a new ISO to test to see if this bug has been fixed. | 20:39 |
| c_smith | sorry for the late response, | 20:39 |
| BluesKaj | c_smith, yeah I had that problem as well, that'e why I asked ...it was 2 weeks or so ago | 20:44 |
| c_smith | ok | 20:44 |
| c_smith | so I'll be testing in a few minutes, want me to let you know the results? | 20:45 |
| BluesKaj | c_smith, sure :) | 20:52 |
| c_smith | k | 20:52 |
| Essobi | In the latest updates.... if I set gnome-terminal background to solid, it's still transparent. | 21:01 |
| c_smith | BluesKaj, I rebooted and tried to install, didn't get to the installer, threw me a Kernel Panic before it finished booting. | 21:37 |
| BluesKaj | c_smith, odd, I did a clean install to / about 5days ago off a daily build live cd and the install went without a hitch ...ok guys we need some help here , any ideas ? | 21:39 |
| c_smith | could it be something to do with my hardware? | 21:40 |
| c_smith | must be, as I have tested it in Virtualbox before. | 21:40 |
| c_smith | and it installs in Virtualbox. | 21:41 |
| BluesKaj | c_smith, is this ubuntu or kubuntu or...? | 21:42 |
| c_smith | Ubuntu, not Kubuntu or Xubuntu or Lubuntu, just regular Ubuntu | 21:43 |
| BluesKaj | ok | 21:43 |
| BluesKaj | c_smith, from here ? http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ | 21:45 |
| c_smith | yup | 21:46 |
| BluesKaj | is the pc really new or over 5 yrs old ? | 21:47 |
| c_smith | let me check when it was made, it's a Compaq Presario CQ60-420US | 21:50 |
| c_smith | it's around 3 years old. | 21:51 |
| BluesKaj | hmm, should be fine | 21:51 |
| Essobi | Welp... Anyone running an ATI card + catalyst on the latest updates? | 21:52 |
| Essobi | Mine went to hell after the latest updates. :| | 21:52 |
| BluesKaj | I als have compaq presario with kubuntu 12.04 on , the only problem it has is it forgets to load the wirelss mouse driver every 2 boot ...dunno why , it's very strange | 21:53 |
| Essobi | O_o | 21:53 |
| BluesKaj | c_smith, btw it's 6 yrs old | 21:54 |
| c_smith | ah, k | 21:54 |
| c_smith | yours isn't a CQ60-420US, is it? | 21:54 |
| BluesKaj | strange that the kernal panic problem is still around tho | 21:55 |
| BluesKaj | c_smith, no it's SX1734 | 21:55 |
| c_smith | ah, k | 21:56 |
| c_smith | it is. | 21:56 |
| c_smith | and it seems to be associated with certain hardware, as the Ubuntu Oregon team lead has been running 12.04 without a hitch, | 21:56 |
| BluesKaj | c_smith, can you get to a tty , ctl+alt+f1 , login then update and upgrade? | 22:01 |
| c_smith | hmmmm, Bkerensa (the Ubuntu Oregon Team Lead) recommeneded something similar, just wish I had the IRC log for the command. | 22:02 |
| c_smith | he told me a set of commands to upgrade. | 22:03 |
| ts2 | c_smith: it should be on http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/ | 22:04 |
| c_smith | but the Ubuntu 12.04 upgrade won't work until I install Ubuntu 11.04 (trying a different distro for a review. | 22:04 |
| BluesKaj | sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade , c_smith | 22:04 |
| c_smith | problem with using those IRC logs are that it was on the #ubuntu-us-or channel. | 22:05 |
| ts2 | that should be logged there too | 22:05 |
| ts2 | yeah -us-or is logged there | 22:06 |
| BluesKaj | c_smith, run those commands after logging in to the TTY | 22:06 |
| ActionParsnip | c_smith: http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2012/01/19/%23ubuntu-us-or.html that is logged too.... | 22:07 |
| c_smith | it'll only work, like I said, once I install ubuntu, running OpenSUSE for a few to do a review. | 22:07 |
| c_smith | yeah, I found the log for that channel for 11/07/2011 | 22:07 |
| c_smith | meh, I'm asking Bkerensa what the command was for getting the proper repos hoping he is awake. | 22:09 |
| c_smith | going to install Ubuntu 11.10 and upgrade right after installing (no updates) and see how that goes. | 22:32 |
