[00:25] <alex54321_> i have installed 12.04
[00:25] <alex54321_> ubuntu
[00:25] <alex54321_> how can i add to repositor for drivers of amd radeons?

[00:57] <h00k> I'm still having some libc6 issues, I'm unable to work around it thus far: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/841143/
[01:07] <Guest59982> hey guys,  has anyone tried the latest alpha 2 build on an atom?
[01:08] <h00k> I'm still having some libc6 issues, I'm unable to work around it thus far: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/841143/, and 'sudo aptitude safe-upgrade --full-resolver' gives: http://paste.ubuntu.com/841151/
[01:08] <Canadian1296> I want to download 12.04 to test in virtualbox. I just need to confirm, but I want the "PC (Intel x86) desktop CD" right? I am on a 64 bit Mac, but I'm installing in virtualbox.
[01:09] <h00k> Canadian1296: that's correct
[01:09] <nhaines> Canadian1296: either should work, but x86 might be more straightforward.
[01:09] <Canadian1296> h00k: Thanks :)
[01:11] <FernandoMiguel> nite
[06:45] <keniobats> hello there!
[06:46] <keniobats> Ubuntu 12 is sucking my battery, it lasts 2h30min instead of the 5hs it last on my MacBook Air. Is there any chance to improve this?(I read about the kernel issue but don't know what to do). Thanks
[06:50] <c_smith> Yayz! Precise is installed and running on my laptop without major Kernel Panic issues on boot! :D
[06:50] <c_smith> and now I shall go to sleep.
[08:11] <urfr332g0> So anyone install synaptic and having a no mouse cursor able to click on the search?
[08:29] <mvo> urfr332g0: yes, known bug, should be fixed today
[08:29] <urfr332g0> mvo, cool it is the search window but the search button that open the tiny gui works odd.
[08:30] <urfr332g0> thanks.
[08:30] <mvo> urfr332g0: yes, its a tiny bug, glade added a "can_focus=false" property into the ui description for no good reason
[08:30] <mvo> 0.75.5~exp6 will fix it, its synced now but not build yet
[08:31] <urfr332g0> lol it happens I just used the cli to remove an extra kernel, no biggie.
[08:31] <urfr332g0> cool
[09:10] <zzecool> Latest compiz updates broke almost all plugins functionality
[09:11] <zzecool> Hot corners doesn working  + keyboard shortcuts  too
[09:11] <zzecool> for plug ins like desktop wall   , expo  etc
[09:12] <urfr332g0> zzecool, yeah just noticed the hot corners every thing else seems intact I have cool cube setup.
[09:12] <zzecool> i use to change workspaces using ALT + left or right
[09:13] <zzecool> and move the window to workspaces with  CTRL + ALT + left or right
[09:13] <zzecool> and doesnt work
[09:13] <zzecool> i tried setting into something else with the same result
[09:13] <urfr332g0> zzecool, mine is set to change with mouse wheel if the cursor is on the desktop as well.
[09:13] <zzecool> it didnt work
[09:13] <zzecool> i see
[09:14] <zzecool> Is mouse still working for changing workspaces?
[09:14] <zzecool> i only have touchpad right now
[09:14] <zzecool> cant test
[09:14] <urfr332g0> zzecool, yeah it is a custom script I always use.
[09:14] <zzecool> hmm
[09:14] <urfr332g0> you want the script?
[09:15] <zzecool> I also found Corrupted drivers behavior
[09:15] <zzecool> no thank you
[09:15] <urfr332g0> cool
[09:15] <zzecool> im using nvidia 290 driver
[09:15] <zzecool> and i have corrupted after log in until the unity launcher appears
[09:16] <zzecool> correpted image*
[09:16] <zzecool> (whatever sry for the typos)  :p
[09:16] <urfr332g0> I have a ati never had to mess with a nvidia
[09:16] <zzecool> There was a Xorg update i think this is the culprit
[09:39] <zzecool> https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz-plugins-main/+bug/931960
[09:51] <c3sso> hello
[09:52] <c3sso> just wanted to report some problems I faced..
[09:53] <c3sso> theming is a bit broken.  when I hover over buttons in the toolbar of e.g gedit, they are 1 or two pixel bigger, resulting in a jumpy movement when hovering...
[09:53] <c3sso> is there a workaroud for this?
[09:55] <c3sso> also, text colors of themes have changed without my interaction... any clue how to fix this until now?
[09:59] <c3sso> rahter nasty bug: /etc/fonts/conf.d/65-nonlatin.conf contains missspelled xml which prevents unity greeter from starting...
[10:14] <zzecool> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/931972
[10:15] <c3sso> ok great.
[10:16] <zzecool> c3sso:
[10:16] <zzecool> c3sso: that was a bug that i found
[10:16] <zzecool> c3sso: it doesnt have to do with your findings
[10:17] <c3sso> I see
[10:17] <zzecool> c3sso: i think you have to report it to "gnome-menus" package
[10:17] <zzecool> Try on terminal   :   ubuntu-bug gnome-menus
[10:17] <c3sso> thanks.
[10:18] <zzecool> ubuntu-bug is a tool collecting and attaching for you the log files to your bug report on launchpad
[10:18] <zzecool> You have to fill in the description + the title of the bug report :)   You gonna understand ones you use it :)
[10:19] <zzecool> np
[10:19] <zzecool> :)
[10:19] <c3sso> I get lots of Gtk-WARNING **: Theme parsing error: gtk-widgets.css:56:16: Not using units is deprecated
[10:19] <c3sso> when running this
[10:19] <zzecool> when running what ?
[10:20] <zzecool> ubuntu-bug ?
[10:20] <zzecool> omg c3sso
[10:20] <c3sso> yes. so I assume its a general theming problem with the base gtk3 system getting updated towards gnome 3.4
[10:20] <zzecool> dont take in mind what i told you
[10:21] <zzecool> i was unsawering on a different guy from the other channel
[10:21] <zzecool> omg lol
[10:21] <zzecool> my bad
[10:21] <zzecool> let me check your problem
[10:23] <zzecool> c3sso:  i see you can open your software center  go to the history tab and search for updates on  packages that may be the culprit like  containing the word themes etc  or any GTK packages
[10:23] <zzecool> and then report the bug using the "ubuntu-bug" tool from the terminal
[10:24] <c3sso> http://paste.ubuntu.com/841503/
[10:25] <c3sso> this does not happen when using raleigh
[10:27] <c3sso> so I think its a theme specific problem with gtk3
[10:28] <zzecool_> c3sso: i see i dont know what is your problem but the "ubuntu-bug gnome-menus"  wasnt going for you
[10:29] <c3sso> I know. I guess the underlying theme mechanism has been updated and most of the themes I tried have probkems
[10:29] <zzecool> what is your theme ?
[10:30] <zzecool> im Using the Adwaita     GTK theme without problems
[10:30] <zzecool> only some transperency  ones
[10:31] <c3sso> different ones, but when I try elementary-borderless and universal I get a strange gray color for the text of menus in gnome-menu and menu instide applications
[10:31] <zzecool> ermm
[10:31] <c3sso> that was working before, without problems
[10:31] <zzecool> i see
[10:32] <zzecool> you can file a report on the GTK pachake
[10:32] <c3sso> also the buttons in the toolmar are jumping 1.2 pixels when hovering over them, at some themes
[10:32] <zzecool> package
[10:33] <zzecool> you can also record a video of the bug and attach it with the bug report
[10:33] <zzecool> this is the best
[10:33] <c3sso> hmm good idea
[10:33] <zzecool> use a tool like "recordmydesktop" or "kazam"
[10:33] <zzecool> i like kazam
[10:34] <zzecool> a trick about kazam is to set the FPS to 10 or 15 not more or it gonna look like 5 fps
[10:34] <c3sso> ok.
[10:34] <c3sso> ffmpeg is fine too.
[10:34] <zzecool> if you are confy working with terminal its ok
[10:34] <zzecool> kazam is ffmpeg gui as i can remember ;p
[10:35] <c3sso> about the theming issues: some of the themes also try to theme the gnome-panel in fallback mode
[10:35] <c3sso> which they shouldnt
[10:36] <zzecool> Record all this on a video and report em :) its the best
[10:36] <c3sso> and some are not theming the tray icon area, it has annother color than the rest...
[10:36] <c3sso> I will
[10:36] <c3sso> sth different:
[10:37] <c3sso> do You have a clue which program provides the battery applet in the tray_
[10:37] <c3sso> is it gnome-powermanager directly, or gnome-settings-daemon?
[10:38] <c3sso> thi icon is ok, but I do not need it in my openbox session
[10:40] <c3sso> there is messes aroud with tint2 panel.. It actually messes around in gnome panel tray too, sometimes (the size of the icon is too big, it uses too much space (2 - 4 times its size on both sides)
[10:41] <zzecool> hmm i dont know
[10:41] <zzecool> ahh
[10:41] <zzecool> i know your problem
[10:42] <zzecool> im using Faenza icons theme and there is a special workaround for the battery icon
[10:43] <zzecool> let me check in the icon folders to see what was the trick
[10:51] <zzecool> Yes the fix is that the icon theme is using the default ubuntu icons for the battery
[10:51] <zzecool> everything else is changed
[11:54] <Fai1ure> I'm having some serious issues with gsettings / gsettings-daemon, but I'm somewhat fumbling to understand how to debug it properly
[11:54] <Fai1ure> if anyone has helpful hints I'd be extremely happy
[11:55] <Fai1ure> gsettings get requests hang indefinitely, and gsettings-daemon seems to hang too
[11:55] <Fai1ure> result is neither Unity / Unity 2D nor Gnome will actually start a useable desktop
[12:16] <Fudge> hi when i boot i am getting crackly sound and it also echos, precise alpha2/amd64, updates. sound is Audio device: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA) (rev 40), what could be causing it?
[12:53] <Fudge> fyi options snd-hda-intel position_fix=1 fixes my sound problem
[12:56] <aQute> i recently installed ubuntu 12.04 alpha2 and now I am getting an error while install updates something called partial upgrade(can t install all the updates), can anybody tell me how to deal with that ?
[12:59] <Fudge> sounds like some packages are held back, think that is common at the moment
[13:00] <aQute> if i do partial upgrade it stops
[13:13] <cjohnston> Greetings, I can't tell if it's safe to upgrade precise again. bug #929384 has a package marked fix released, but 2 hours ago someone reported still having a crash. Opinions?

[14:48] <MrChrisDruif> ??
[14:48] <valdur55> MrChrisDruif, it's dconf entry
[14:49] <MrChrisDruif> It's a dconf entry?
[14:50] <MrChrisDruif> And what could I do to troubleshoot if it doesn't work?

[15:06] <lamalex> can anyone help me fix broken apt? E: Internal Error, No file name for libc6
[15:39] <arand> lamalex: would you be able to provide release, architecture, whether multiarch is enabled, and a full transcript of the upgrade attempt?
[15:39] <lamalex> arand, i'd be willing
[15:40] <arand> lamalex: I think the upgrade log should be in /var/log/ somewhere
[15:40] <lamalex> arand, I'm on P, amd64, with multiarch
[15:40] <lamalex> term.log?
[15:41] <lamalex> http://paste.ubuntu.com/841833/
[15:44] <arand> lamalex: I've delegated that to cjwatson in #ubuntu-devel (someone there contacted him with a similar issue, I mentioned your comment here and he stated that this info would be useful)
[15:44] <lamalex> aye aye
[15:46] <arand> lamalex: Hmm, did you try restarting gdm and then re-running apt?
[15:48] <arand> lamalex: Oh, seems there's libc-bin errors earlier, possible the gdm thingy is unrelated...
[15:48] <lamalex> no i dont use gdm anyway
[15:49] <arand> Or, argh, no that one goes in correct, ignore my libc-bin comment :/
[15:52] <arand> lamalex: 16:51 < cjwatson> arand: bizarre.  'sudo dpkg --configure -a' might help
[15:53] <arand> lamalex: Oh, you're already in the channel :)
[15:53] <lamalex> yah but i wasn't watching

[16:19] <pharenozoic> Hi, anybody here know where the config files for GTK3 Rhythmbox are?
[16:19] <pharenozoic> (Or, more generally, what the replacement (if any) for gconf in GNOME 3 is.)
[16:19] <Ian_Corne> anyone know what's making unity-2d to uninstall atm?.
[16:22] <pharenozoic> Well I've no dependency problems with unity-2d (or any other core packages), and I'm using up-to-date Precise i386. Tried reloading the repositories?
[16:26] <Ian_Corne> pharenozoic: it's unity-2d that's blocking
[16:27] <pharenozoic> Did update-manager (or synaptic smart upgrade) suggest a partial upgrade which removed it?
[16:29] <Ian_Corne> It's not removed
[16:29] <Ian_Corne> i tried to dist-upgrade
[16:29] <Ian_Corne> but saw that it'd be removed
[16:29] <Ian_Corne> so I stopped
[16:29] <Ian_Corne> and investigated
[16:29] <pharenozoic> You're already on Precise, right?
[16:31] <pharenozoic> Have you tried using Synaptic and upgrading just unity-2d (say)? Synaptic will usually tell you the source of a conflict.
[16:32] <kklimonda> Ian_Corne:  unity-2d-shell has been updated and it's breaking unity-2d-launcher and unity-2d-places (<< 5.4~)
[16:32] <Ian_Corne> yes
[16:32] <Ian_Corne> yes pharenozoic :)
[16:32] <Ian_Corne> I'm updating as much as I can
[16:32] <Ian_Corne> VLC is also broken
[16:33] <Ian_Corne> well the update is
[16:36] <Ian_Corne> the google repo's are also realy slow
[17:22] <dank_> Woe is me... was on precise alpha 1, did update, then accepted a partial update... now update manager refuses to run, complaining "ubuntu-desktop: Depends: unity but it is not installed".  Should have read the sticky!
[17:24] <dank_> Looks like the cause is unity needs slightly newer libunity-core and unity-common, guess the problem will fix itself soon.
[17:26] <urfr332g0> dank_, if you get it working or reinstall make a clone.
[17:26] <dank_> what kind of clone, and why?
[17:27] <urfr332g0> dank_, a image can be done easily with clonezilla. Why, if you had one yiou would just reload quickly and be on the road again so to speak.
[17:28] <dank_> Oh.  Fine advice.  (Although maybe rejecting partial upgrades is enough.)
[17:29] <urfr332g0> dank_, having a image of your OS is the best insurance. If your going to be sarcastic I suggest you read the channel policies. :)
[17:33] <dank_> Wasn't sarcasm.   Also, this system is kind of disposable, so I'm ok.
[17:34] <dank_> sorry if my poor command of english was confusing.
[17:36] <valdur55> Can anyone change default lubuntu.xml file?
[18:04] <roothorick> all of a sudden today I can't access a hidden WPA2 AP. It worked last week, but now it just spins and spins and eventually gives up. Where do I even begin on this? Where's the logs?
[18:06] <urfr332g0> roothorick, is it your link?
[18:06] <roothorick> a Win7 laptop in the other room is connected to the same AP.
[18:09] <roothorick> found the logs... "Association request to the driver failed"
[18:26] <dank> OK, fixed that.  Then had to install ubuntu-desktop (!) and libcroco3 by hand.  Now update-manager happy, doesn't complain about partial updates, yay.
[18:28] <urfr332g0> dank, cool ;)
[18:37] <dank> ia32-libs-multiarch still unhappy.

[21:44] <jrgifford> How would I go about troubleshooting a precise install that has A. broken theme (i think unity is borked) and B. is no longer able to handle a external display? open source ATI drivers if it helps...
[21:45] <dank> Does failsafe x work?
[21:46] <jrgifford> I'm currently booted into precise itself, using my laptops built-in display, no failsafe X.
[21:47] <jrgifford> i'm even using unity 3D haha. :P
[21:48] <dank> Sorry, I don't have much experience with external displays, I'll shut up now.
[21:48] <jrgifford> ok. :)
[21:48] <jrgifford> i just installed the latest kernel update, i'll reboot and see if that fixes it (not much of a chance, but its a chance...)
[21:52] <jrgifford> nope, that didn't fix it.
[23:16] <tristanc_> Hi everyone! I have some questions regarding Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.
[23:16] <tristanc_> My dock changed and I'm not sure whether it's a bug or not...
[23:17] <tristanc_> It used to be hidden when entering fullscreen applications like Firefox and now it isn't anymore.
[23:17] <tristanc_> Now it's always there, except when I play games in fullscreen.
[23:23] <nhaines> tristanc_: this is normal and the new default behavior.
[23:23] <nhaines> tristanc_: you can set it to always show, or always hide.
[23:24] <nhaines> Power/settings icon > System Settings > Appearance > Behavior tab > Auto-hide the Launcher will let you change this default.  :)
[23:25] <nhaines> http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2012/02/mark-shuttleworth-explains-dodge-ditch-decision-in-precise/ has links to the discussion about this change.
[23:39] <tech2> Anywhere I can find more info about compiz brokenness in recent updates?
[23:42] <tristanc_> OKay, thanks for the info, nhaines.
