FudgeStanley00 I am wondering from a blind persons perspective the best way to accessibly install ubuntu server08:51
Stanley00Fudge: well, there is a ubuntu-server image, did you try it?08:51
FudgeStanley00 not yet but plan to, I am gathering informatino after reading a long thread about people trying to do it, other blind folk08:54
FudgeStanley00 information is my friend, such as if a console is available outside of the installer to set volume, load espeakup software synthisizer etc08:55
vega-hm, thunderbird seems to not work at the moment (it starts but with a blank screen, only top menus visible)08:55
Stanley00Fudge: well, I think after installed, you just need irssi (IRC client) and links (www browser) and an internet connection, if something go wrong, you can get whatever you need from those two :D08:56

Stanley00Fudge: well, it's not so hard... I think :D08:59
FudgeStanley00 I appreciate the confidence, care for a challenge? turn your monitor and off and do an install then :p09:00

jo-erlendbah. Todays upgrade of Unity has loads of regressions. :(10:11
jo-erlendand Thunderbird is completely defunct. :/10:12
jo-erlendThe system works about five minutes at a time, then I have to log out and back in. Everything stops working. Not good.10:15
brendandjo-erlend - i see the thunderbird thing (or rather, don't see it :P). unity is fine though, what graphics card you have?10:19
jo-erlendRadeon HD310010:19
jo-erlendit works when I log in, but then it seems everything stops listening to my keyboard. I can switch to another console, but that's it. The Unity launcher responds to clicks, but nothing else.10:20
jo-erlendand it doesn't hide. Menus react to clicks, but the menus doesn't appear.10:21
jo-erlendit the apport dialog also made non-resizable now? I don't like all this scrolling. I don't understand why dialogs shouldn't be resizable.10:23
jo-erlendhorizontal scrolling is really annoying.10:23
jo-erlendmakes it extremely difficult to understand what the bug report contains. I hope that's just a bug and not a conscious decision.10:27

vega-mine was like that too10:56

vega-could be something similiar even though you don't have lightning?10:57
TeTeT does anyone else have a corrupt xsession on precise? Instead of unity a single xterm is launched after login, can't figure out what's going wrong11:02
vega-i had that11:02
vega-fixed by "apt-get install ubuntu-desktop"11:02
vega-apt removed unity at some point, due to something having to do with i386/amd64 packages and/or multiarch11:03
TeTeTvega-: I did that too, but the session remains corrupted. Oh well, I can start gnome-settings-daemon and unity manual for now, maybe need to remove some user specific config files11:11
DaekdroomOn the Thunderbird matter, I could activate Global Menu Bar integration, but it won't work with Messaging Menu and Unity Launcher integration enabled11:14
vega-TeTeT: you could create a new, test user to verify if it's something in your home dir11:22

jokerdinoit is not resizable.13:20
jo-erlendthat is an extreme regression.13:20
jo-erlendit's nearly unusable.13:20

jokerdinoI can't verify that.13:24
jokerdinoi haven't seen any bug reported regarding this behavior.13:24
jokerdinojo-erlend: i suggest you file a bug report regarding this13:30
jo-erlendjokerdino, it's relatively far down the list of regressions from todays upgrade.13:30

jokerdinomicahg: you could be right13:31
jo-erlendjokerdino, my system became almost unusable after the upgrade today. To make things worse, I forgot to take a snapshot before upgrading. Beating myself up over that one.13:32
jokerdinohah, taking a snapshot might have been useful13:33
jo-erlendyes, that's why I switched to btrfs in the first place. :)13:34
jokerdinoi have another peculiar bug. open a terminal window, try to move it by clicking on the title bar and moving it around. and have fun with the bug.13:35
jo-erlendjokerdino, that causes no issues here. What happens?13:36
jo-erlendI had to switch to metacity with gnome-panel, though. Compiz is completely unusable now.13:36
jokerdinoif i click on it and try to move it, it grabs my mouse and keeps moving the terminal around. i can't escape it in anyway possible.13:36
jo-erlendhehe13:37
Ian_Cornepress the windows key!13:37
jo-erlendmy numlock LED went insane earlier today. I think it thought it was the HDD LED or something. It's always fun when you get these amounts of regressions on a Friday afternoon.13:37
jokerdinoi press alt + f4 and close the darn window13:37
jokerdinooh yeah, it keeps you occupied over the weekend.13:38
jokerdinoIan_Corne: pressing windows key does no difference.13:39
jo-erlendif ubiquity supports btrfs now, I think I'll test it.13:40
jokerdinoi think being able to revert to a previous version should be useful. if i remember, there is a system restore in windows that lets you do exactly that.13:42
jokerdinowith version i mean a previous state.13:42
Ian_Corneok jokerdino :p13:42
jo-erlendjokerdino, with btrfs you don't even have to revert. You can just boot the system as it was at a specific point in time.13:47
jokerdinoi wonder why it is not implemented.13:48
jo-erlendwhy what is?13:53
jokerdinobtrfs that is.13:53
jo-erlendit is implemented. I'm using it now.13:54
jokerdinodoes your menus and buttons have icons now?13:54
jo-erlendin gnome-panel they do.13:54
jokerdinoi see, i never used btrfs13:54
jo-erlendit's not particularly user friendly yet, though.13:55
jokerdinolearning something new should be fun,13:56
jokerdinoi can't disable menus with icons. :(13:57
jo-erlendbtrfs is certainly worth spending some time to learn.13:58
jokerdinoalso, the expo using mouse over is broken.14:01

arandIsn't cinnamon an extension rather?15:07
glosolihope they don't include cinnamon :)15:11
arandHmm, I'm thinking of another thing...15:11
glosoliin btw, hate seeing a lot of ubuntu forks growing up without future and asking people for donations while they do nothing just add different themes and icon sets15:12
arandWell, Mint does quite a lot of good stuff, but the decision to fork gnome3 may not be one of them, though in that regard they're in the same seat as Ubuntu ;)15:13
valdur55Yea. It's quite simple to add linux mint repo and istall cinnamon :)15:14
petrovvoic, thanks15:15
glosoliarand: yes, mint is different story, clem is doing lm as a full time job :) but I  and many of my friends from now on, are really liking unity, and feeling it has a bright future :)15:16
petrovvUnity - in the sense of WM environment?15:17
petrovvor lack of forking?15:17
arandWM15:17
glosoliCinnamon for me looks like  a ship with its anchor holding to the past and making pause for evolution :D15:18
petrovvglosoli, I tried Gnome 3.* on Fedora 15 and found it to be heavily mouse oriented, what about keyboard users (unless I miss somehting)15:19
arandIf cinnamon was included it would quite obviuosly be a universe package and non-default. And I guess it would enter via Debian rather than any Ubuntu-specific effort.15:19
glosolipetrovv: Cinnamon is also gnome 3.x :DD15:19
arandpetrovv: I use G3 and finds it quite keyboard-friendly.15:20
glosoliIMO, i have enough usage of keyboard in ubuntu with unity, quite like it from now on, was never a big keyboard shortcuts fan before15:20
glosolipetrovv: Would you mind telling us, what you can't do with keyboard in Gnome 3 ?15:21
petrovvglosoli, all the kb shortcuts I learned before do not work, I do not have the list handy, but if you compare the actual shortcuts assignments, Gnome Shell has something like 1/3rd of what Gnome 2.* provides15:22
glosolipetrovv: you are making a big mistake telling about it lacks of keyboard shortcuts for gnome 3 :) Gnome-Shell is WM15:22
glosoliGnome 3 is DE which is also used by Cinnamon15:22
petrovvglosoli, say, Ctrl-Alt-D for minimizind all the windows currently open15:22

glosoliarand: tryed some weeks ago to use windows, was feeling crazy not having workspace, after that, just kicked the MS ass out of my computer and left only pangolin here ;D15:27
petrovvhow is workspace different from WM and from Desktop Environment?15:29
arandglosoli: Hmm, I don't actually miss workspaces as much as the "scale" overview.15:29
glosoliarand: yes, this one too, but now I have nothing to miss, coz being fully ubuntized15:30
glosolipetrovv: Workspace is smth like the number of desktops15:30
glosolipetrovv: one desktop 1 workspace , 2 desktops  - 2 workspaces, talking by slang15:30
petrovvglosoli, then how is it different from pager in older WMs?15:31
jo-erlendjust upgraded, and now things are _much_ better wrt Unity, Compiz and graphics in general.15:31
glosolijo-erlend: I can't do dist-upgrade because of dependencies for now, if I do ,i will get unity ant unity-2d removed :D15:32
glosolipetrovv: hmm, probably not much, just in Gnome Shell it's much more easier to use, and it is focused on it15:32
jo-erlendglosoli, right. I did a plain upgrade. I did a dist-upgrade this morning, which is when everything went pear shaped.15:33
glosolijo-erlend: with simple upgrade yiu probably don't have all unity parts 5.4 version15:33
zzecoolglosoli:  ;p15:33
glosolizzecool: Hey ;D15:33
zzecool:)15:33
petrovvglosoli, perhaps offtopic, but if you are forced to use MS Win at work or elsewhere you may want to try the DexPot WS manager15:34
petrovvglosoli, it gives you up to 20 workspaces and other things like rotating cube, for example15:34
glosolipetrovv: hmm, seen this one some time before, but I felt like it was pretty slow15:35
zzecoolglosoli: do you have dependencies for unity and unity 2d?15:38
zzecoolglosoli: it seems i cant do a dist upgrade yet15:38
zzecoolit is going to rmeove unity - 2d15:38
glosolizzecool: same here, waiting ;D15:39
zzecool:P15:39
zzecoolits beta freeze today15:39
DaekdroomI believe unity-2d has to be rebuilt against lastest libunity15:39
glosoliyeah, finally ;D15:39
zzecool:)15:39
glosoliDaekdroom: you're right15:39
zzecooli hope dodge active window stay as it is or all take my gun  lol ;p15:39

zzecoolyou are wrong15:40
zzecoolits there15:40

DaekdroomIt WILL be removed.15:40
DaekdroomI don't have it in CCSM anymore.15:40
zzecoolrly?15:40
glosoliso what  ?15:40
glosoliyou have it in system15:41
glosoli:)15:41
DaekdroomIt's just that the ubuntu repos have a slightly older version of Unity.15:41
glosoliIt can be set by gsettings15:41
DaekdroomAnd that 5.4 update will remove dodge (active) windows.15:41
glosolihmm15:41
DaekdroomCan it?15:41
DaekdroomI want to try15:41
zzecoolThey are stupid enought to kill the best launcher feature15:41
zzecoolwhata dorks15:41
zzecool........15:41
zzecooli hope you are wrong15:41
DaekdroomI did like dodge active windows too.15:41
glosoliDaekdroom: wait I will try toget command from my friend15:41
zzecoolglosoli: no need for a command15:42
glosolibut he is using older version probably coz he is on main server too15:42
glosoliaa :)15:42
zzecoolDaekdroom: do you have gconf installed?15:42
DaekdroomSure I do15:42
zzecoolok wait15:42
zzecoolDaekdroom:  open gconf and navigated to /apps/compiz-1/plugins/unityshell/screen0/options and then set launcher_hide_mode to 315:46
zzecooland please tell me the results15:46
DaekdroomNothing happened.15:47
zzecoolthe removed the code...........15:47
zzecoolthey815:47
DaekdroomIf I set it to 1, it autohides. If I set it to 3, it stays as it was15:47
zzecool2?15:48
zzecoolis 2 working ?15:48
glosoligconftool -s -t int /apps/compiz-1/plugins/unityshell/screen0/options/ launcher_hide_mode 215:48

DaekdroomNot working either15:48
zzecoolso they removed the code15:48
zzecool............15:48
zzecoolwe are doomed15:48
zzecooluntil some nice guy patches the unity with the cade again15:49
DaekdroomDodge windows did poorly in the user testing.15:49
zzecoolcode15:49
zzecoolDaekdroom: BULLSHITS15:49
zzecooli dont wanna start this15:49
jokerdinozzecool: what is your issue here?15:49
Daekdroomhttp://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2012/02/mark-shuttleworth-explains-dodge-ditch-decision-in-precise/15:50
zzecooljokerdino: nothing but its nice that if someone says a bad word activity appears15:50
glosoliHaha, Iam with canonical15:50
zzecool:)15:50
jokerdinouser testing involves people who barely know anything about interface and design15:50
jokerdinoso when they see launcher disappear they panick.15:50
zzecooljokerdino:  true15:50
Daekdroomjokerdino, most people that Ubuntu target don't know anything about interface and design.15:50
zzecoolmake the launcher always on bu default and leave dosge for us is not bad15:51
zzecoolWhy is autohide better than Dodge someone tell me 1 reason15:51
zzecool...................15:51
DaekdroomI honestly don't know.15:51
zzecoolThere is no reason15:51
glosoliThere is :)15:51
DaekdroomMaybe the 'dodge (active) windows' behaviour is confusing.15:51
zzecooltell me15:51
glosoliWhy is dodge windows better than autohide ? ;D15:52
zzecoolhow can be confusing when i deside to use it15:52
DaekdroomFor some time, I thought it was exactly the same thing as autohide, to be honest.15:52
jokerdinoprobably they didn't want to maintain something that they are not interested in.15:52
zzecoolbecause dodge give you the launcher when there is nothing on the desktop and Unity IS ALL ABOUT THE LAUNCER15:52
glosoliMark is going the right way - thinking of daily users, not power users, otherwise, ubuntu has no future.15:52
zzecoolActive icons etc15:52
glosoli:)15:52
tom95hi, I installed libsocialweb for using its dbus, but it doesn't show up in d-feet. do I have to run it explicitly or may the package be brocken?15:53
DaekdroomIt's not going to be exposed to the users under the appearance options, so they removed the option.15:53
jokerdinothat makes sense.15:53
glosoliDaekdroom: simplicity is the best15:53
glosoli:)15:53
zzecoolglosoli: you cant get it15:53
DaekdroomIt could stay there over ccsm, but what's the point if they're trying to move the options to the GNOME Control Panel, right?15:54
glosoliSure I can :) YOu think of yourself, Mark thinks of daily users :)15:54
zzecoola launcher always on = bug you can press icons on accident15:54
bazhangzzecool, lets get back to bug tracking and fixing please15:54
zzecoolwhile working15:54
glosoliDaekdroom: there is, people who has not enough knowledge might crash desktop with ccsm :)15:54
jokerdinohey, i honestly think there should be dodge windows, but not visible to everyone.15:54
zzecoolbazhang: i dont get you i can express my thoughts here no ?15:54
glosolizzecool: Mac OS X users have their launcher always on, they have no problem so far :) neither windows users15:54
DaekdroomI don't see why remove it. It shouldn't be that hard to maintain.15:55
bazhangzzecool, this is not the debate channel, no15:55
jo-erlendglosoli, I have a fair amount of experience, and I've been able to cause serious issues with ccsm without knowing why or how.15:55
zzecoolyes because most UIs dont have their control to the bottom15:55
glosolijo-erlend: as I said :)15:55
jokerdinobazhang: "#ubuntu+1 Discussion and support for Precise Pangolin"15:55
zzecoolbazhang: chill out15:56
glosoliThis can be debate channel if topic is Precise Pangolin15:56
bazhangjokerdino, within limits. bug fixing and tracking is the main purpose15:56
zzecoolthen what about ubuntu-bugs/15:56
KBentley57hey guys, can someone link me to the kernel config for the latest alpha build?15:56
bazhangzzecool, file a wishlist bug if a feature is removed15:56
zzecoolso its a bug for me and i like to discuss it15:57
zzecooldont continue on this please15:57
glosoliit's not a bug :)15:57
zzecoolit is for me15:58
glosolilol15:58
glosolidon't act like a kid, Mark gave a public article why that feature will be removed, so it's not a bug dude.15:58
zzecoolit can result on different opperation i was expect too15:58
zzecoolglosoli: i read it and failed to understand any reason.   Because a first time user found that dodge is confusing we remove the feature?15:59
zzecoolglosoli: if we are going to adjust ubuntu like this for the first impression only remove the terminal too please16:00
glosolizzecool: CANONICAL doesn't feel like maintaining feature which is not needed for daily users.16:00
zzecoolglosoli: its confusing this black and white thing16:00
glosoliIf ubuntu continue on focusing to power users,  it will soon die16:00
zzecoolTerminal must be removed too16:00
zzecoolthen16:00
glosoliTerminal is in Mac OS X also16:00
zzecoolnot an application for daily user16:00
glosoliwindows also has cmd16:00
glosoliah , no offense, don't want to talk with offensive people who are aged enough but acts like a kiddos.16:01
zzecoolit comes in conflict with canonical statement16:01

zzecoolglosoli:  ubuntu must listen to their usebase and if you read over omgubuntu  95% of the user  want the feature because its is a must for them16:02

glosolizzecool: So develop :)16:05
Picizzecool: Well you're talking to users here, not developers, not Canonical, not Mark. And for the most part, no one wants to hear someone just endlessly complain about things.16:05
PiciIf you want to try to make a difference, you've been given your options.16:06
glosoliYou don't want to change it ? Start learning, be programmer, develop then you will understand, that you need resources to maintain such a big projects, and some features from time to time have to be dithec16:06
glosoliditched''16:06
zzecoolglosoli: the code is there no need to develop somehting16:07
glosolizzecool: there need to keep support for it16:07
glosolidepending on version of unity16:07
glosolito make bug fixes if smth goes wrong16:07
glosolifor example16:07
glosoliwobbly plugin isn't updated since 200816:07
glosoliNow it's buggy with latest unity :)16:07
zzecoolwe are not speaking about 3rd party plugin here we speak about unity16:08
zzecoolnevermind soon a ppa while jump out with the feature back on16:09
glosolizzecool: here we speaking about your anger to the project and it's developers who make changes.16:09
zzecoolglosoli: i dont rly thing you know what you are saying16:11
glosoliI'm saying that from time to time there will probably come even more changes you don't like, and it will definitely happen, you need to accept some things and give and opportunity for replacements who will be supported, dunno why, but I like the way Mark is doing this, he wants to make Precise or any other release even better not for old users only, but to attract more public :)16:13
glosoliThis is abstract opinion not only about "dodge" feature16:13
=== EyesIsServer is now known as Eyes|Infinite
glosoliDaekdroom: Do you know if HUD will be available with Unity 5.4  ?16:14

glosoliDaekdroom: But As I understand HUD is not searching only in current app, it searches in all, giving priority to the current ?16:44
Daekdroomphilinux, removal of aptitude happened some versions ago. The thing now is that 12.04 is moving on to multiarch for 32-bit packages in x64 systems, and aptitude can't handle that yet. So installing wine, for example, makes aptitude break everything.16:45

Milos_SDI have little problem with compiz... I can't use expo plugin and applications switcher (not as it is attended to)...when I activate expo, it starts using a lot of cpu, there is a lot of I/O wait, everything freez for a moment, and if it shows the expo, all desktops are white. Sometimes after using expo, there is a lot of garbage on my screen.16:49
Milos_SDSomething similar is happening when I use applications switcher.  Previews of windows are all white, and sometimes I get garbage on screen while app switcher is active. What is the problem here?16:50

trismjo-erlend: try a unity --reset for your hud problems, the service wasn't starting here until I just reset the unity settings, and now it works with alt19:26
trismthat's pretty nifty, if you hold down super now it brings up a keyboard shortcuts listing19:43
jo-erlendtrist, installing the software is usually more effective.19:45
ganimedegood evening. I have installed ubuntu 12.0419:46
ganimedeand nothing works so far19:46
trismjo-erlend: it is installed with indicator-appmenu, so you have it if you still have menus in the panel19:46
jo-erlendtrism, nevermind. The problem was fixed a while ago. The problem was that update-manager itself wasn't upgraded, so I needed to use apt-get in order to upgrade my system.19:47
jo-erlendhowever, I get the show desktop button at the top of the launcher. That's not right, is it?19:48
ganimedeis there a way to run a partition in a virtual machine?19:48
jo-erlendganimede, if you can use raw files, it should be.19:49
jo-erlendyou'll need to have the right permissions, of course.19:49
ganimederaw files? not sure.19:49
jo-erlendganimede, but this doesn't sound +1-specific. Perhaps you should ask in #Ubuntu-cloud?19:50
ganimedewell, it was my intention to run that new version of ubuntu and ask the questions I had from within it, but it keeps crashing19:51
ganimedein any case, it appeared to have issues as soon as I have installed the 400+ updates using update-manager19:54
ganimedewhen restarting, I had no screen after the login. the only solution i found has been to install the NVIDIA drivers. So I managed to log in next time19:55
ganimedebut as soon as the login is completed, everything crashes, I am left only with the background and cannot execute anything in X, only Ctrl-Alt-F1 to have a text-mode bash19:56
jo-erlendand this is in some kind of virtualization solution?19:59
ganimedeno, this is a fresh, genuine install in another partition20:01
ganimedeand if possible is how i would like to have things running, especially because of what I need to use and try20:02
jo-erlendtry Unity 2D then?20:02
ganimedehow do i do it, jo-erlend?20:02
jo-erlendganimede, click on the button next to the password field before logging in.20:03
jo-erlendit's quite nice. More beautiful than Unity in some ways, I think.20:03
ganimedeok, here a VM would have helped. I need to reboot to check. See you in a bit20:03
ganimedeexcellent, unity 2D worked. now how do I convince my second monitor to switch on?20:11
=== sdx24 is now known as sdx23
ganimedewell, the nvidia-settings sees it. let me reboot and check20:16
johnjohn101if i get a segmenation fault on xfreerdp, is this something i report on ubuntu+1 channel or freerdp.  This is the application that came with the system21:08
trismjohnjohn101: apport should generally pop up a dialog asking if you want to report crashes, if not check out /var/crash for a .crash file for xfreerdp and run: ubuntu-bug /var/crash/filename.crash; or failing that just: ubuntu-bug freerdp-x1121:14
johnjohn101k21:15
ganimedeit doesnt work. my second screen is not properly recognized21:25
ganimedeand I am still not at the issue :(21:25
xocolatlhello.  is anyone else having trouble with a trackpad?  this is almost unusable21:53
glosolixocolatl: what exactly ?21:54
DebolazYes, mine seems to live a life of its own. :-)21:54
xocolatldo we know what's causing it?  it precise is shipped like this, it will be a catastrophe!21:55
Debolazglosoli: Here, merely holding your finger on the trackpad, without moving the finger, will cause the pointer to move around.21:55
* Debolaz is able to live with it, but its really weird. :-)21:55
glosolihmm21:55
xocolatlglosoli, it's as if someone else also has control of the point and is playing a sick game.  that's fun for a few seconds but this doesn't ever stop21:56
xocolatlit jumps all over the place and even sometimes clicks on its own :(21:56
glosoliah21:56
glosolireport a bug ?21:56
xocolatlI've found that using two fingers will sometimes stabilize it (but sometimes make it worse)21:56
* Debolaz is still waiting for someone to take notice of the last bug he found. :)21:57
xocolatlglosoli, that's what I'm doing isn't it?21:57
glosolilaunchpad is for reporting bugs21:57
glosoliNoone in here will fix you if you write just here21:57
glosoli:)21:57
xocolatlso what's the point of this channel then?21:57
DebolazTitle fonts looks slightly messed up on my installation.21:57
DebolazApparently it happens for other people too.21:58
glosolixocolatl: it's discussion and supports, it doesn't mean bug fixing or developing :)21:58
glosoliSupport is giving away to go forward21:58
xocolatlI don't want to have to create an account on launchpad.  if bringing my issue to an official channel means my voice is not heard, then fuck it21:59
glosolixocolatl: Hmm, you're being to rude21:59
glosoli:)21:59
glosolitoo''22:00
jcoleis there a gnome meta package in ubuntu, like kubuntu-desktop for kde and xubuntu-desktop for xfce22:00
glosolipasting bug in launchpad is mch more effective :)22:00
xocolatlrude?  because I report a problem and am told to go away?  fine.  going away.22:00
jcoleubuntu-desktop appears to be unity22:00
glosoliwhat a kiddo...22:01
glosolijcole: there is ubuntu-desktop and it doesn't consist just of unity22:01
glosolijcole: there are more packages in that ubuntu-desktop22:02
Debolazglosoli: I'm not sure if I'd agree posting bugs on launchpad will always be more effective, been waiting a week now for someone to notice my favorite bug. :)22:03
jcoleglosoli: if i install kubuntu-desktop, everything defaults to kde... what can i install to default to gnome22:03
glosoliDebolaz: YOu think developers will sit here ant be fast enough to read 100 users reportinkg bug in the real time chat ? lol, you must be kiddin aint you ?22:03
jcoleglosoli: i am aware of that22:03
glosolijcole: hmm not sure, but what do you want to do ?22:04
Debolazglosoli: I don't think that. But they've had a week to notice it on launchpad now. Would be nice if someone either acknowledged it or asked for more information if there were doubts about it.22:04
zzecoolDebolaz: bad thing is that they dont use channels like this and even if they do they dont speak22:05
glosoliDebolaz: Bug is being filled as real only when multiple users are being affected. Next time you ask some friends to log in and press "Affects me", then I will be shown as real bug :)22:05
Debolazglosoli: It affects 4 people according to launchpad.22:05
glosolihmm, so they have seen it :)22:05
zzecoolDebolaz: post the bug link22:05
Debolazhttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/93051522:05
ubottuLaunchpad bug 930515 in Ubuntu "title bar text glitch offset shadow" [Undecided,Confirmed]22:06
zzecoolok let me check22:06
DebolazI'm not demanding that this is fixed or anything, its only a small visual thing that doesn't really affect me much. I just want to be sure that it has in fact been seen. :)22:07
glosoliDebolaz: when was the last time you did upgrade ?22:07
Debolazglosoli: 2 days ago if I recall correctly.22:07
jcoleglosoli: i maintain a customized version of ubuntu (and debian) using packages ive created... i have a blacklist package (which conflicts with unity) since my users are using "gnome classic"... but, i depend on ubuntu-desktop as well to get the "core" of ubuntu (im using gnome-desktop on debian)22:07
Debolazglosoli: It was still there at that time.22:07
jakubohi, there,22:07
jakubowil wine 1.4 be available without installing all of those i386 libraries?22:07
jcoleglosoli: so, im asking what "core" package can i use on ubuntu22:08
glosoliDebolaz: Maybe it is already fixed, and since there as a lot of updates in 2 days period, you didin't to upgrade, that might be your problem22:08
micahgjakubo: no, it's not a pure 64 bit app AIUI22:08
glosoliDebolaz: Updates don't accur without your permission.22:08
zzecoolDebolaz: i see i dont have this bug22:08
jcoleglosoli: i alread have post install commands to set the gdm login for gnome-classic/gnome-2d as well22:08
glosolizzecool: you are up to date, he is 2 days out of updates22:09
jakuboso i need the i386 libraries aswell?22:09
zzecooli never had this either22:09
zzecoolDebolaz: what vga and what vga drivers ?22:09
Debolazglosoli: I think you're missing a point here: What I'm asking for is that the bug has been noticed by developers, I said above I'm not demanding that it'll be fixed. I don't have the luxury of being on my ubuntu machine all the time (It's at work) so I'm unfortunately not able to check if it's been fixed right now.22:10
Debolazglosoli: But it was up to date after the bug was reported, so please don't suggest there's something wrong with the bug report. :)22:10
glosoliDebolaz: Don't you think it's logical to pay more attention to bigger bugs at the moment ?  There are so much people reporting :)22:10
jcoleglosoli: basically, im looking for a gnome meta package that does not include unity (so my blacklist package can remove it entirely)22:10
glosolijcole: Don't think you might find one22:11
Debolazglosoli: A bug that is seen whenever the machine is on, no matter what application I'm in, is perhaps not important in the sense that it doesn't crash the OS, but it's extremely noticeable and eventually quite annoying. It makes the UI look defective.22:11
zzecooljcole: there is ubuntu-desktop22:11
zzecoolthis is the only meta  with all the packages22:11
glosoliDebolaz: Would you might doing upgrade ?:))))))22:11
jakubobesides... has anyone else transparent panel and missing icons?22:12
jcoleglosoli: that is too bad22:12
zzecooljakubo:  screenshot or never happened :p22:13
Debolazglosoli: I'd of course be happy about keeping that bug in place if it meant all the horrible bugs in compiz were fixed. But even then, people tend to want to be sure developers has at least seen their bugs, because otherwise you give people the feeling that the right people don't even know about it.22:13
glosoliDUDE22:13
Debolazglosoli: It doesn't have to be malicious, maybe the bug was misfiled somehow. By acknowledging a bug, you give people one less thing to worry about.22:13
glosoliDebolaz: Instead of being offensive, try upgrading your system, unity package was updates many times in two days, maybe it's already fixed, how long will you complain about problem that you don't know if still exists.22:13
zzecoolDebolaz: why dont you just update ?22:14
Debolazglosoli: I've not been offensive. I've not said one bad thing about anyone or anything (Except compiz, which everyone I know agrees with).22:14
zzecoolDebolaz: and please tell me what is your vga and vga driver22:14
glosolizzecool: I am asking him ten minutes for a same question :)22:14
Debolazzzecool: Its hard when glosoli keeps this up.22:14
zzecoolDebolaz: what is your vga and vga driver i asked you like 4 times allrdy22:15
jakubohow do i post it here?22:15
Debolazzzecool: I'm trying to look it up. Asking the question repeatedly will not make google faster.22:15
zzecoolyou dont know what is your vga?22:16
glosoliDebolaz: It's hard, that you blame something when you don't upgrade. what's the point of using alpha/beta then ?22:16
zzecoolglosoli: this looks like more like a vga driver problem than anyhting22:16
Debolazzzecool: I said this before: I don't have the machine in front of me, its in a remote location. I can't look up information on it.22:16
glosoliDebolaz: Have you access to terminal in that machine ?22:17
jakubohow do i post screenshot?22:17
Debolazglosoli: I haven't blamed anyone for anything. I said that people feel a sense of peace if the existence of a bug is acknowledged, even if not fixed. To this, you replied "DUDE" and said I was being offensive.22:17
zzecooljakubo: upload it to a image site like imageshack22:17
zzecooland post the link22:17
zzecoolDebolaz: stop argue  with glosoli  and lets look at your problem22:18
DebolazIts hard to stop arguing when someone repeatedly accuses you of stuff. :)22:18
jakubohttp://imagebin.org/19946222:19
jakubohere you go22:19
zzecoolDebolaz: he done this before with is younk and restless22:19
zzecoolyoung* lol22:19
zzecoolso22:19
zzecoolhave you ever saw the pc with the problem  or do you only have remote access?22:20
DebolazThe machine is at work. Right now, I'm at home.22:20
DebolazThere's no remote access to it.22:20
zzecoolok so this isnt a problem with the remote application it happens on the actual monito too?22:20
zzecoolright ?22:20
DebolazIt happens on the machines own LCD screen.22:20
zzecoolnice22:21
DebolazThe graphics hardware is Intel GMA 950.22:21
DebolazI'm not sure which driver is used though.22:21
zzecoolhmm22:21
DebolazI'm going to drop by work tomorrow. When there, I'll do an upgrade. If that doesn't resolve the issue (I kind of doubt it will tbh), I can look up any information needed from the system.22:22
zzecoolDebolaz: is the resolution the naive one22:22
zzecoolnative22:22
DebolazYes.22:22
glosolizzecool: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/930515 read the second comment in the bug report... :)22:23
ubottuLaunchpad bug 930515 in Ubuntu "title bar text glitch offset shadow" [Undecided,Confirmed]22:23
DebolazThe problem did not occur with 11.10 either, so it's a new one.22:23
zzecoolsometimes if you dont use the native resolution you end up with problems like this22:23
zzecooloh i see22:23
zzecoolglosoli: i dont get it the automate one ?22:24
zzecoolDebolaz: you need to search about the driver support for your vga card22:25
zzecoolDebolaz: but other than that a simple update may fix the problem22:25
trismDebolaz: don't know if you saw the thread posted earlier: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1919448 might want to mention your bug report there (doesn't seem to affect people with nvidia, based on comments there and that I don't see it either)22:25
Debolazzzecool: What commands do I use to retrieve the information needed? I'll attach the output to the bug report.22:26
Debolaz(Tomorrow)22:26
zzecoolDebolaz: its can be many reason behind this from a bug to the the font rendering xorg server window decoration .................and more22:26
glosoliMy friend with Intel GMA450 have no problems.22:26
zzecoolDebolaz: on terminal type     ubuntu-bug <package you think is the problem name>22:27
zzecooland it auto collects the log files22:27
zzecooland push them on a report22:27
jakuboany ideas on the icon missing thing?22:27
DebolazWhich package should I use? Unity?22:27
glosolinot unity22:28

zzecooljakubo: i dont know22:28
