xiambax | GTK seems to be buggy in development | 07:50 |
xiambax | Could it be because of old themes? | 07:50 |
cheako | xiambax: I have problems with huludesktop after attempting(failing) to configure transparency in GTK. I don't understand engines at all. | 07:59 |
xiambax | I do a little. But all the engines apparently pulled over correctly. Still look like ass. I just went default gtk | 08:00 |
cheako | Yeah, I just want fiery/blurry/cube-spinning/wobbling effects back. Though this gnome-shell interface is niffy. | 08:05 |
xiambax | I prefer gnome over unity. but i used Fluxbox back in the day. | 08:07 |
xiambax | But I have a mac desktop | 08:07 |
xiambax | So mac and gnome seem very similar to me | 08:07 |
cheako | I had a G5-PPC and I ended up putting Debian on it because I couldn't stand the UI(back then I was a sawfish/gnome-session/panel user) used) and it's X implementation leaved much to be desired. | 08:10 |
cheako | ...that and after going hard down the filesystem's b-tree would be corrupt, when that happens it's all over. | 08:10 |
OldManMagnus | hi. anyone got any idea how to change the nautilus right click menu to get the "open with" option back? | 10:22 |
OldManMagnus | i'm writing some code and want to run it from nautilus. | 10:23 |
OldManMagnus | it gives you a list of programs you can use, but doesn't seem to let you add your own. | 10:24 |
spacebug- | OldManMagnus: I'm using an extention for that in nautilus which lets you add your own program/scritps to run on files/folders | 10:33 |
OldManMagnus | spacebug-: ah, that sounds useful. got a link? | 10:40 |
OldManMagnus | spacebug-: ? | 10:46 |
spacebug- | sorry took a shower hehe. Hum | 10:47 |
spacebug- | not sure which of my packages it is.. w8 | 10:48 |
pangolin | OldManMagnus: I think nautilus-actions is what you want | 10:48 |
spacebug- | http://pastebin.com/y4jr1T9D | 10:49 |
spacebug- | yeah me too | 10:49 |

DaniG2k | guys how can I remove unity in 12.04 and install xfce? | 11:02 |
DaniG2k | guys how can I remove unity in 12.04 and install xfce? | 11:04 |
robin0800 | ! notunity | DaniG2k | 11:04 |
ubottu | DaniG2k: Ubuntu 11.10 uses GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool". For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. Using Natty? See !classic | 11:04 |
brobostigon | !xubuntu-desktop | 11:05 |
ubottu | k/ed/x/l/ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage. It depends upon other packages and brings them in; you can safely remove it, but it is recommended that you re-install it when upgrading. | 11:05 |
DaniG2k | so i have to install gnome first and xfce second? | 11:05 |
brobostigon | DaniG2k: you should just be able to install xubuntu-desktop package, and just switch on login. | 11:06 |
DaniG2k | ok | 11:06 |
DaniG2k | how do I get rid of Unity after? | 11:06 |
brobostigon | DaniG2k: or just use xubuntu 12.04 | 11:06 |
zzecool | DaniG2k: read this http://askubuntu.com/questions/6302/how-can-you-remove-unity | 11:21 |
zzecool | probably the same or almost the same will work for precise | 11:21 |
zzecool | instead of use the terminal do what the tutorial says using synaptic | 11:21 |
zzecool | so you can have a visual about what is happening | 11:22 |
zzecool | glosoli: nooboli | 11:22 |
zzecool | :D | 11:22 |
glosoli | what ? | 11:23 |
DaniG2k | im afraid it will mess up my system for some reason :S | 11:25 |
glosoli | DaniG2k: Why would you remove unity | 11:25 |
glosoli | ? | 11:25 |
DaniG2k | because i can't stand it | 11:26 |
glosoli | DaniG2k: So just switch to Gnome Classic :) | 11:26 |
glosoli | No need to remove it | 11:26 |
glosoli | it doesn't use 10tb in your hdd | 11:26 |
DaniG2k | my partition is really low on space | 11:26 |
brobostigon | as i said, why not just use xubuntu 12.04, then no need to mess around, it has xfce, and no need to worry about unity. | 11:26 |
DaniG2k | i have 200MB left :'( | 11:26 |
glosoli | DaniG2k: how much you gave for Linux ? | 11:27 |
DaniG2k | 20GB | 11:28 |
DaniG2k | but Ubuntu becomes bigger and bigger | 11:28 |
DaniG2k | so now I'm really low on space | 11:28 |
DaniG2k | thinking of just switching distro | 11:28 |
brobostigon | DaniG2k: it is worth seeing how big /var/log is, as that is where all the log files are, and it can become quite a size. | 11:29 |
DaniG2k | brobostigon: its 34 MB | 11:30 |
brobostigon | DaniG2k: you should have disk space analyser installed, use that to see wheree space is being used, and can be cleaned out. | 11:30 |
yofel | DaniG2k: if you're on precise your apt file cache is likely using a lot of space, run apt-get clean | 11:35 |
chmac | How do I get the laptop to lock the screen when I close the lid? | 11:50 |
bazhang | chmac, check the screensaver settings? | 11:51 |
chmac | bazhang: I don't have screensaver settings in system settings I don't think. | 11:52 |
chmac | bazhang: My options in power settings are "when lid is closed" do nothing, suspend or hibernate. I want lock. | 11:53 |
arand | chmac: Looking in dconf,doesn't look like that is available in gnome, unfortunately... | 11:57 |
chmac | arand: Sadly my research is turning up the same, although I did find a bash script that apparently has the desired effect, will experiment later. :-) | 11:57 |
chmac | arand, bazhang: Thanks for looking into it. | 11:57 |
zzecool | chmac: system settings --------> brightness and lock | 11:58 |
chmac | zzecool: So I have lock "On" after 5 minutes, but if I close the lid and reopen within 5 minutes, screen is unlocked. | 11:59 |
arand | dconf makes me wonder what some people are smoking... | 11:59 |
zzecool | chmac: Lock screen after screen : Turns off | 12:00 |
zzecool | its simple | 12:01 |
zzecool | why so much confusion ? | 12:01 |
chmac | zzecool: Just tried it, but it doesn't have the desired effect. | 12:01 |
chmac | zzecool: I think it refers to the setting above, turn the screen off when inactive for X minutes. | 12:01 |
zzecool | What is the desired and what it does? | 12:02 |
chmac | zzecool: I want the screen to lock when I close the laptop lid. It does not currently. | 12:02 |
mortal | has anyone else had virtual desktop keybindings disappear with the latest update? | 12:05 |
chmac | mortal: You mean ctrl-alt-left/right/etc? If so, yes. | 12:06 |
zzecool | chmac: i think the suspend is broken | 12:06 |
chmac | zzecool: I don't want my machine to suspend when I close the lid. | 12:06 |
chmac | How do I find out (command line) whether a package was installed manually or as a dependency? | 12:07 |
zzecool | then there is no feature that can make what you asking | 12:07 |
zzecool | you can file a bug | 12:07 |
zzecool | as a wish | 12:07 |
zzecool | and explain what you want as a behaviour | 12:07 |
chmac | zzecool: Ok, thanks for your input. | 12:07 |

chmac | Anyone else have openid issues logging into launchpad? Regularly fails for me and I can never remember exactly how I got it to work previously. | 12:14 |

ubottu | Launchpad bug 871047 in gnome-power-manager (Ubuntu) "Can no longer set screen to lock when lid closed" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 12:21 |
zzecool | ok i will confirm it | 12:21 |
zzecool | :) | 12:21 |
zzecool | as affects me | 12:21 |
chmac | Sweet | 12:22 |
arand | zzecool: Likely something that could use forwarding upstream to gnome | 12:23 |
zzecool | it is confirmed hope that it is going to get any attention | 12:24 |

It gives me a check box for send an error report, a button for show details and a continue button.. One problem, my mouse stops working after this crash.. The Caps lock and scroll lock buttons on my keyboard are now flashing.. any ideas? | 18:10 |
penguin42 | cjohnston: If capslock/scroll lock are flashing it's probably a kernel panic - you need to hit reset | 18:10 |
cjohnston | penguin42: I did that the first time, and it did it again.. is there anything i can do to get rid of this? | 18:11 |
cjohnston | other than wait for an update? | 18:12 |
penguin42 | cjohnston: it's most likely a graphics driver issue (although chromium is getting touchy for me as well and I'm not seeing a kernel panic) | 18:13 |
penguin42 | cjohnston: It's interesting it manages to display the crash box before it dies - there is a small chance there are actually some logs in /var/log/syslog after reboot | 18:15 |
zzecool | glosoli: you here? | 18:17 |
cjohnston | penguin42: is there something i can search for it in to try and find? | 18:17 |

ironhalik | nope | 19:20 |
ironhalik | nvm, I mounted it manually | 19:20 |

Ampelbein | scientes: Nope, the rebuild is done in a seperate archive. | 19:28 |
Ampelbein | scientes: You have to only download packages that failed in the rebuild and got a new upload to fix the failure. | 19:29 |

urfr332gO | outbox, you running a actual release or 12.04? | 20:22 |
ironhalik | penguin42: maybe you will know - whe the hell Ubuntu didnt go with Precise Penguin with 12.04?! | 20:22 |
outbox | urfr332gO, yes | 20:23 |
urfr332gO | outbox, yes meaning 12.04? | 20:23 |
penguin42 | ironhalik: I don't know! Precise Penguin Provides Perfect Peudonym | 20:24 |
penguin42 | ironhalik: Personally I blame big Mark | 20:24 |
outbox | urfr332gO, it is | 20:24 |
urfr332gO | outbox, cool, you in the right place. :) | 20:24 |
ironhalik | if he keeps it up, we gonna have to do something about big mark ;> | 20:24 |
ironhalik | anyone actually had dnsmasq installed by default? | 20:25 |
ironhalik | oh nvm, I probably had it, it just wasnt caching | 20:25 |
penguin42 | ironhalik: It seems dnsmasq is now a default in PP | 20:25 |
zzecool | yes it is | 20:26 |
zzecool | its was a description in one bluprint asswel | 20:26 |
zzecool | as well* | 20:26 |
zzecool | ;p | 20:26 |
outbox | so how can i uninstall dnsmasq as network-manager depends on it | 20:26 |
scientes | installing dnsmasq by default now? | 20:26 |
scientes | that sounds like a good move | 20:27 |
scientes | its a great piece of software | 20:27 |
zzecool | scientes: do you know any way to make dnsmsq to forward the resolvs to another dns ? | 20:27 |
zzecool | i was trying to find a way to have dnsmsq + dnscrypt work together in different ips | 20:28 |
zzecool | but i cant find any way to forward the dns resolves | 20:28 |
scientes | zzecool, dnsmasq just uses resolv.conf | 20:28 |
scientes | unless you give it another resolv.conf | 20:28 |
zzecool | hmm | 20:28 |
scientes | you can also set dns server on a domain basis | 20:29 |
scientes | like to force ipv6 resolving for google | 20:29 |
scientes | or maybe they make that the default now, not sure | 20:29 |
scientes | just man dnsmasq, its well documented | 20:29 |
zzecool | i think that whatever i put in resolv.conf resets back to 127.0.0.1 where dnsmaq is listening | 20:29 |
scientes | ahhh gotcha | 20:29 |
scientes | thats a dhcp problem | 20:30 |
scientes | but its probably not 127.0.0.1 but your external ip address | 20:30 |
outbox | zzecool, you can use package resolveconf to keep your resolve.conf settings permanenly | 20:30 |
penguin42 | zzecool: Yeh, there is now a config file that dnsmasq reads instead - and it's all driven by network manager | 20:30 |
scientes | ^^^ | 20:30 |
zzecool | i know all this | 20:31 |
scientes | dnsmasq in ubuntu i guess uses an alternate resolv.conf | 20:31 |
zzecool | every single one dns server - cache have an option to only cache and forward the resolves to another server | 20:31 |
zzecool | i cant find this feature to dnsmasq | 20:31 |
scientes | zzecool, and that is exactly what dnsmasq does by default | 20:31 |
scientes | so you don't even have to configure it | 20:32 |
zzecool | scientes: let me explain | 20:33 |
zzecool | i have 2 dns servers running on my pc | 20:33 |
scientes | zzecool, just set the alternate resolv.confr by hand | 20:33 |
scientes | and then put the ips you want to forward to inthere | 20:33 |
zzecool | confr ? | 20:33 |
scientes | you can tell dnsmasq which resolv.conf to use in dnsmasq.conf | 20:34 |
zzecool | but network manager use his config | 20:34 |
zzecool | every time dnsmasq starts | 20:34 |
zzecool | let me show you | 20:34 |
zzecool | type : ps aux | grep dnsmasq | 20:35 |
zzecool | you will see the config | 20:36 |
scientes | well im using oneric | 20:36 |
scientes | hope the upgrade to precise doesn't f it up for me | 20:36 |
scientes | cause i use dnsmasq for alot of stuff | 20:36 |
scientes | like tftp | 20:36 |
zzecool | wait i will show you | 20:37 |
zzecool | scientes: http://pastebin.com/eYbxVpVh | 20:37 |
zzecool | this is by default | 20:38 |
zzecool | so its allrdy a mess | 20:38 |
scientes | oh geeze | 20:38 |
scientes | that ubuntu for you (did i say that!) | 20:38 |
scientes | if they are going to do something ugly like that they should listen on a non-default port | 20:39 |
zzecool | it gonna be for you too ;p | 20:39 |
scientes | or just on lo | 20:39 |
scientes | so it doesn | 20:39 |
zzecool | its on lo | 20:39 |
scientes | 't conflict with running your own dns server | 20:39 |
zzecool | but on the default port | 20:39 |
scientes | on the real port | 20:39 |
scientes | no, its not on lo | 20:39 |
zzecool | my second dns is running on 127.0.0.2 so i dont have a conflict | 20:39 |
scientes | its on 127.0.0.1 | 20:39 |
scientes | there is a difference | 20:39 |
zzecool | but i cant redirect form dnsmasq to the second | 20:39 |
scientes | thats a fucking mess | 20:40 |
zzecool | i told ya | 20:40 |
scientes | shit, and the precise upgrade already started | 20:40 |
zzecool | lol | 20:40 |
scientes | that will fuck my shit up | 20:40 |
penguin42 | scientes: While it may indeed be, they prefer less language in this channel | 20:41 |
zzecool | i was testing DNSCrypt form opendns | 20:41 |
zzecool | its very cool | 20:41 |
scientes | oh sorry penguin42 | 20:41 |
zzecool | but doesnt give a shit about local dns names | 20:41 |
zzecool | so you need a second dns | 20:41 |
zzecool | ;/ | 20:41 |
ironhalik | hmm, I guess I can enable dnsmasq caching function? | 20:41 |
zzecool | ironhalik: i dont know | 20:41 |
mrdeb | huh | 20:42 |
zzecool | it is suppose that the implement dnsmasq for cache but the config is strange | 20:42 |
zzecool | i dont get it | 20:42 |
zzecool | that they * | 20:42 |
zzecool | nevermind gonna watch some series ;p c ya | 20:43 |
ironhalik | hf :> | 20:43 |
zzecool | ty | 20:43 |
zzecool | if you have any news about dnsmasq give me a notice when you see me again :) | 20:44 |
penguin42 | hmm - is it possible to run a dns server on a port other than 53 and resolv.conf pick it up? And would it make sense for nm to do that to cause less chaos? | 20:51 |
penguin42 | hmm doesn't look like resolv.conf supports a port | 20:52 |
scientes | is this a ubuntu change or an upstream change? | 20:54 |
scientes | dnsmasq supports a config directory, ie /etc/dnsmasq.d/ | 20:54 |
scientes | then network manager could split out the DHCP, TFTP, stuff | 20:54 |
ironhalik | hmm, Ive got no dnsmasq confs in etc | 20:55 |
scientes | and ship a differn't default dns config for dnsmasq that only listens locally | 20:55 |
scientes | ironhalik, /etc/dnsmasq.conf | 20:55 |
scientes | the directory is not shipped currently | 20:55 |
ironhalik | nope, no conf | 20:56 |
scientes | but dovecot for example changed from one big, to a directory style | 20:56 |
ironhalik | and no service, either | 20:56 |
scientes | oh, well i havn't confirmed that | 20:56 |
penguin42 | scientes: Looks like it's Ubuntu - based off: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/foundations-p-dns-resolving | 20:56 |
ironhalik | well, should it have an init script? | 20:56 |
ironhalik | hmm, on the other hand, maybe those changes make my openvpn work on 12.04 and not work in arch | 20:58 |
Ian_Corne | nice one jo-erlend | 21:05 |
jo-erlend | Ian_Corne? | 21:05 |
Ian_Corne | https://lists.launchpad.net/unity-design/msg08073.html | 21:05 |
Ian_Corne | did he reply? | 21:06 |
jo-erlend | oh, that discussion went way too far. | 21:06 |
Ian_Corne | I'm pretty sure he doesn't have much supporters of his views | 21:07 |
jo-erlend | I don't think anybody bothered to see what the application is really about. It's a nearly defunct photo album/video catalog. Has absolutely nothing to do with pornography. | 21:07 |
Ian_Corne | yeah | 21:08 |
jo-erlend | if people are so sensitive that a mere word is enough to cause mental damage, then ... what can we do? There's got to be a limit. | 21:08 |
Ian_Corne | indeed | 21:09 |
jo-erlend | heh, you could, for instance say that fsck should be banned, because it could easily be mistyped into spelling an extremely horrible word. :) | 21:09 |
jo-erlend | but I too went way too far in the discussion, and I'm trying to put it behind me. I don't usually react so strongly, and I shouldn't have. | 21:09 |
ironhalik | hmm, Ubuntu tries to hit buisness market now, and such large and open repos could offset some corporate minds | 21:12 |
ironhalik | ofcourse, you can install apps like that in Windows | 21:13 |
ironhalik | but for some, of its in the software center, its built right into the operating system! portn operating system! | 21:13 |
ironhalik | still, its much lesser evil/inconvinience then censoring everything | 21:14 |
ironhalik | so nvm | 21:14 |
jo-erlend | ironhalik, "apps like that"? You mean photo albums? | 21:22 |
ironhalik | yeah, thats silly :) | 21:22 |
ironhalik | photo albums named 'PronViewer' and using a blond, 80s style, pixelated chick as its icon | 21:23 |
jo-erlend | What about "Xchat"? Does that sound a little suspicious as well? | 21:23 |
ironhalik | less then BitchX :P | 21:24 |
ironhalik | Its not about rational arguments, its about corporate mind | 21:24 |
ironhalik | at least as I see it | 21:24 |
jo-erlend | no, it was about religion. It was claimed that Ubuntu should be considered a completely Christian operating system, and therefore anything not Christian must be removed. | 21:25 |
ironhalik | oh, I didnt think about it in that categories ;> | 21:26 |
jo-erlend | but just like that discussion was inappropriate on the design list, this discussion is really inappropriate here, I think. | 21:26 |
ironhalik | true | 21:26 |
ironhalik | either way, I think the issue of operating system and religion conformity is silly enough it may be ignored :) | 21:31 |
urfr332gO | ironhalik, gee golly wally were you not the one to complain about vapid posts yesterday. :) | 21:31 |
ironhalik | I was? :) | 21:32 |
jo-erlend | ironhalik, if you're reading through that list, however, you may find the posts from Ryan Gauger somewhat amusing... | 21:33 |
ironhalik | I dont recall | 21:33 |
urfr332gO | it was you but no biggie. :) | 21:33 |
ironhalik | jo-erlend: I tried but it times out on me for some reason | 21:33 |
ironhalik | urfr332gO: I really dont remember :) And since I dont visit the forums or lists, I dont know how its possible :) | 21:34 |
urfr332gO | ironhalik, T 1330120503 8 28 ironhalikthats a lot of pointless discussion '? | 21:35 |
urfr332gO | from scrollback | 21:36 |
ironhalik | oh that wasnt about a post :P | 21:36 |
ironhalik | that was about a discussion here | 21:36 |
urfr332gO | ironhalik, about my discussion with another. | 21:36 |
urfr332gO | ironhalik, do you get the point your now is no different. | 21:36 |
urfr332gO | yours | 21:37 |
ironhalik | it was tangue-in-cheek, since I didnt participate much | 21:37 |
urfr332gO | ironhalik, I don't really care by the way just pointing this out. :) | 21:37 |
urfr332gO | we all talk and say things off topic, most of us realize this and try to keep it shor. | 21:38 |
ironhalik | I guess you're right - discussing the state of gaming and graphic performance in linux, in comparision with windows is almost religious in nature and should be ignored :P | 21:38 |
urfr332gO | short | 21:38 |
ironhalik | oh | 21:39 |
ironhalik | well, since there is no other chatter here | 21:39 |
urfr332gO | go for it I say. :) | 21:39 |
ironhalik | ;> | 21:39 |
ironhalik | hmm, Im even idling in #ubuntu-offtopic | 21:40 |
ironhalik | But people there are talking about frozen pizza :/ | 21:40 |
urfr332gO | ironhalik, I never go there it is like a good old boys club with generally user with no critical thinking abilities, but that is just my opinion. :) | 21:41 |
urfr332gO | users | 21:41 |
ironhalik | Well, if you "love frozen pizza", you seriously lack critical thinking abilities :) | 21:42 |
urfr332gO | ironhalik, lol that is about the jist of it, and while eating it in your parents basement, "mommie" | 21:43 |
ironhalik | and I think he ment frozen as in not-yet-thawed | 21:43 |
urfr332gO | lol | 21:43 |
ironhalik | Thats cruel :> I think most Ubuntu users moved out of their parents basement ;> | 21:44 |
ironhalik | I think I know someone that lives with his parents attic actually, and his an avid Windows Sever 2003 user :) | 21:47 |
urfr332gO | ironhalik, may have moved out but the mentality sticks. :) It is a metaphor | 21:48 |
ironhalik | Sure, just kidding around ;> | 21:49 |
ironhalik | But its still true story :) | 21:49 |
Amoz | hi, anyone know if the ctrl+alt+arrowkeys shortcuts in gnome-shell are borked? | 22:02 |
penguin42 | Amoz: Someone said they changed to super+alt+arrowkeys (not tried it myself) | 22:04 |
jakubo | hi, what does the dri mesa experimental package do in 12.04? | 22:05 |
Amoz | penguin42, doesn't work here either. I'll check if I can find shortcut settings somewhere. | 22:07 |
jakubo | does it change anyting? | 22:09 |
Daekdroom | jakubo, I think it contains the gallium mesa driver for nvidia cards, but let me check | 22:12 |
jakubo | it activated quite a few things when gallium was not default, but that changed quite some time ago | 22:13 |
jakubo | it used to bork my intel driver for instance... | 22:14 |
Daekdroom | Well, the opensource nouveau driver is quite recent, so it might not be default on mesa yet. | 22:14 |
ironhalik | Amoz: you can change the shortcuts in CCSM | 22:15 |
Daekdroom | ironhalik, he's talking about gnome-shell | 22:15 |
ironhalik | Amoz: right now they're binded to super+shift+arrows | 22:15 |
ironhalik | oh, sorry, missed that :D | 22:16 |
Daekdroom | Nothing to do with how unity shortcuts are set | 22:16 |
ironhalik | Guys, would you say that missing hibernation entry in the cog button is a pm-utils issue of the applets? :> | 23:47 |
snadge | its actually a "feature" | 23:49 |
snadge | hibernate has been disabled by default, unless your system appears in a whitelist.. which is apparently very small | 23:51 |
snadge | you can re-enable it again by editing an obscure file | 23:52 |
penguin42 | that's a bit sad - although I can kind of understand why | 23:52 |
ironhalik | oh, wow | 23:53 |
ironhalik | funny part is, pm-hibernate works correctly | 23:53 |
ironhalik | where is the file I can edit? :> | 23:53 |
ironhalik | btw, disabling hibernation by default is not very green of them :P | 23:55 |
ironhalik | ok, found the file http://askubuntu.com/questions/94754/how-to-modify-policykit-to-allow-hibernation-in-upower | 23:57 |
Daekdroom | ironhalik, hibernation is known to not work very well on a lot of systems. | 23:59 |
graingert | is anyone getting an issue where they type a few letters into gnome-shell and it crashes? | 23:59 |
