glosoliironhalik: aaa :) I remember my roommate facing that problem that he needs to take apart the whole notebook even keyboard :D00:00
glosolibut he was on Acer, on my Asus jist one thing to take apart and easy00:01
* yofel repaired 2 fans so far, for both he had to take half of the notebook apart (a thinkpad and an eeePC)00:04
ironhalikOk, I lost the battery indicator00:07
glosoliyofel: hmm, that's why I love Asus :/00:07
yofelthe eeepc was from asus. Maybe the notebooks are better00:07
glosoliyofel: or just mine and few others I have seen so far, 4 bolts and there you go CPU Fan and Ram00:09
yofelram is as easy, but the EeePC's fan is below the mainboard00:09

knewbie_I can not tell. It shows the human icon then, loads sometime... black screen whole time.01:21
tomodachiis this to install , or after installation?01:21
knewbie_to install..01:21
tomodachiis there an option to edit the kernel command line01:21
knewbie_if there is, I dunno how01:22
tomodachithe 12.04 had  you pressing f6 i believe01:22
knewbie_ok then?01:22
tomodachiit will allow you to modify thew boot string01:22
knewbie_ok.. to?01:22
tomodachierase the word quiet and the word splash01:22
tomodachithen you will get to see the entire boot process in text01:22
tomodachimight have some more info we can use to deduce what happens01:23
knewbie_ahh that sounds much better01:23
knewbie_I will try that and come back. thx01:23
tomodachinp good luck01:23
tomodachimaybe the eerror is something you can google01:23
tomodachior try your luck with here01:23
knewbie_maybe.. I heard some kernel issues with iommopage something?01:24
knewbie_virtual iommpage mapping feature being on by default?01:24
tomodachino idea , try to boot like this and check what error the lodain stops at..01:24
knewbie_ok. might as well as google first.. might save me a retry..01:27
knewbie_found it.. I want to try vmware fast graphics with new mesa 8.0 but installing on regular use is mistake?01:29
zutihello and help. how can i build wine with 12.04? apt-get build-dep wine1.4:i386 says everything is ok, but configure fails because "X 32-bit development files not found"01:30
knewbie_zuti, does installing wine even work ?01:31
zutiknewbie_: yup, but it doesn't run my programs. closes right away01:32
zutiand keeps complaining about gnome keyring01:32
knewbie_zuti, so no wine. I read that they switched from 32bit thing to multi-arch...01:33
zutiyeah, i noticed that after just updating. strange that the build-dep doesn't provide all needed libraries, even if i define i38601:34
zutiactually, sorry, misread that... it says it can't find a source package for it. ar01:35
knewbie_https://launchpad.net/~alexandre-montplaisir/+archive/winepulse01:36
knewbie_here is lauchpad using multi-arch support01:36
knewbie_hmm. upgrading to new 12.04 sounds like a bad idea for normal use..01:38
zutioo.. winepulse, even. that's just what i need. have been compiling the multimedia branch lately to get any sound out of wine01:39
zutior is the name just misleading. still built from vanilla01:40
knewbie_only 1 way to find out01:40
zutior maybe i might just read the description :)01:41
knewbie_hmm. I guess I will wait on trying beta. wine is a stopper.01:43
knewbie_for me at least01:43
Captain_Protonanyone know why most GS shell do not work in 12.04? Is it a code thing Ubuntu thing01:46
c_smithhey, is anyone else having trouble loading the Gnome Fallback Session on the Precise beta 1?01:52
Captain_Protonhave you updated lately?01:52
Captain_Protonc_smith, Do that first that fix my problem01:53
Fyodorovnac_smith, you load the gnome-shell that also loads the fallback.01:53
c_smithCaptain_Proton, I've been updating every few hours.01:53
c_smithand my hardware is capable of running the default Gnome Shell, I just want the old Gnome 2 look.01:54
Captain_Protoncan you load gnome-shell01:54
Captain_Protoni know just see01:54
c_smithCaptain_Proton, I'll have to install it, which where I'm at, a coffee shop, it isn't a suitable place to grab and install a bunch of packages like that, I'll have to install it later on,01:55
Captain_Protonwhat does it do now01:55
c_smithhmmmmm, not as many packages are needed as I thought......01:56
c_smithI thought it would be up in the hundreds of megabyte's worth.01:56
c_smithonly about 10-20 mb.01:56
c_smithk, I'll let you know when I get it installed and try.01:56
Captain_Protonk It may just fix your problem01:57
c_smithkk01:57
c_smithCaptain_Proton, thanks for the tip, it really helped.01:59
c_smithGnome fallback is working.02:00
Captain_Protonsweet :)02:00
c_smithmight be the updates I applied a couple hours ago, or your tip, dunno for sure.02:01
Captain_Protonall good :)02:01
c_smitheither way, I had it working shortly before I did a clean install of beta 1 over alpha 2. :D02:01
c_smithone thing I must say about Precise, is the new LightDM look is tight, modest changes really go a long way in this case.02:02
Captain_Protonthat one o the thing that keep using ubuntu is the polish.02:03
c_smithyup.02:03
zutiwhaat? sound works with the distro version of wine. wonderful :)02:05
zutii guess i don't need to build anything anymore02:06
Captain_Protonyea i seen they went back to alsa.02:06
Captain_Protonanyone here test the windows 8 customer preview?02:07
Fyodorovnayeah02:08
Captain_Protonwhat you think?02:09
Captain_Protoni test the dev not very good based on that i say it a turd02:09
FyodorovnaCaptain_Proton, not bad, Ihave W7 as well, but I started on open source I just have windows cause I feel sorry for the users. :)02:09

Captain_ProtonI dont know Dvorak agress with them02:13

Fyodorovnathat*02:15
Captain_ProtonThey talk about the ubuntu on Andriod on twit i think last week02:15

* glosoli also Skype Guys replied that they didin't ditched Skype for Linux, even though there wasn't any release for years02:23
zutihm... i see the outputs under sound settings aren't numbered anymore. a bit confusing to see four different outputs with the same exact name02:34
kanliothas someone changed the terminal colors in precise.  it's really messed up here02:42
zutii changed the background a couple of hours ago. seemed to work.02:44
kanlioteh, i'm talking about default terminal colors02:44
zutiah :)02:45
jbichakanliot: the terminal colors should be the same as oneiric, but gtk made a bunch of theme changes this cycle02:46
kanlioti think i'll just post a screenshot to the lubuntu mailing list02:47
kanliotand all hell will break loose02:47
faissalhi, the overlay icon when i press volume up or down is now a lowresolution image, im running ubuntu precise with compiz turned on, any ideas guys ?02:53

mykrobinsondoes the HUD seem to not present logical choices at the moment?03:14
swajhey guys, I'm running precise beta, and so far, it rocks.  One thing I'd like to fix though is that when I move my mouse between screens, it "sticks" to the edge until I move it a certain distance.  Can I disable that?04:47
=== reith2004_ is now known as reith2004
Daekdroomswaj, no, you cannot disable that.05:08
mykrobinsonyou guys having any issues with the Dash search not returning anything meaningful?06:07
mykrobinsonJust tried searching for some of my music by artist name, and i get no results.06:07
mykrobinsonCoincidentally, I'm playing that same artists in Rhythmbox at the time06:07
nanobolic_tried looking though google for a doc on how to use the hud and train it is there such a thing yet?06:13
rigvednanobolic_: not that i know of. to train it, you just use it. it will automatically group your frequently used actions first.06:33
nanobolic_rigved, I tested it with firefox and going to the add-ons and it kept bringing up network connections06:41
nanobolic_will have to keep using it I guess to see "how" to use it I guess06:41

edgyajmitch: grub-install12:14
edgyaljosa: ^12:14
* edgy wonders why my new keyboard paste the wrong name twice12:15
aljosaedgy: so boot ubuntu install, chroot and run grub-install? any idea if i should install on MBR or some partition?12:15
crizzyedgy: ^^ then.. http://grepmonster.wordpress.com/2011/05/31/ubuntu-11-10-middle-mouse-button-emulation/ this might help12:20
edgyaljosa: yes, install on mbr12:21
edgycrizzy: ok thanks I will try that when I have access to my pc from work12:22
edgycrizzy: but why did they stop the emulation by default?12:22
edgycrizzy: is it a generic problem or based on specific hardware12:23
crizzyno idea ^^ 2 button mouses being rarity nowadays perhaps12:23
yofeledgy: you said touchpad, does it paste if you tap with 2 fingers?12:23
yofelthe middle button emulation for mouses has been gone for quite a while12:24
FernandoMiguelmorning12:25
edgyyofel: what do you mean by tap with 2 fingers? I pressed both keys to no avail12:26

cheaterhi guys, i am having problems with gnome 2 under pangolin.. alt-tab doesn't do anything and the app buttons in the panel don't show the text, just the icons. actually, the selected app shows the text too but it's very faint. is this a known issue? is there a fix?12:36
cheateradditionally, gdm does not display the keyboard layout selector, and it defaults to us qwerty, which makes it impossible for me to type in passwords12:37
glosolicheako: Gnome 2 in Pangolin??12:38
FernandoMiguelglosoli: did you apt-get update and dist-upgrade?12:38
glosoliFernandoMiguel: sure I did12:39
glosoliThere was some updates and all were success12:39
FernandoMiguellet me change mirrors12:39
glosoliimma using MAIN12:39
cheaterglosoli: yeah, the "gnome classic" mode or whatever it is called12:40
cheaterglosoli: that is gnome 2, right?12:40
cheateror am i mixing things up?12:40

glosoliit's Gnome 312:40
cheaterah12:40

glosolicheako: GDM is ditched since Oneiric as I know12:41
glosoliyou installed it by yourself ?12:41

Dr_willisactually from what ive seen lightdm is getting more features with each release. :)12:46
Dr_willisi still wonder whats up with that grid of white dots..12:46
glosoliDr_willis: It can be disabled12:46
glosoliBut don't remember how :D12:46
Dr_willisi recall needing to use some extra ppa to disable it. but again. I dont see any point in them at all. it looks like somthing people just overlooked.  ;)12:47
Dr_willisso far 12.04 has been working decently on my problematic ati desktop test bed. :)12:48
Dr_willisI did notice i had to change vlc2 to use alsa instead of 'default' for sound to not sound funny..12:49

edgyHi, I updated my kernel and now cannot install nvidia driver13:59
edgyhttp://pastebin.ca/212379113:59
edgywhat can I do to fix it?14:00
glosoliedgy: which version of kernel and are you using latest nvidia ?14:14
edgyubuntu precise with kernel 3.3.0-030300rc5-generic14:14
glosoliedgy: how do you managed to get 3.3 in precise ?14:14
edgyglosoli: one of the bugs in launchapd asked to to test the latest kernel from canonical kernel site14:19
glosoliedgy: Did you tryed latest nvidia driver, or you're already using it  ?14:19
edgyglosoli: I was using it on my old kernel but when booted the new one it didn't work so I tried installing and got14:20
edgyERROR (dkms apport): kernel package linux-headers-3.3.0-030300rc5-generic is not supported14:20

jStefanHi, I've created a LiveUSB out of 12.04-beta1 using unetbootin, Lili, and universal usb installer, and with all 3 i get boot problems (usually kernel panic), but the cdrom I burned from the same iso works fine, any ideas?14:22
penguin42jStefan: You should just be able to dd the 12.04 cd image onto a thumb drive14:22
Dr_willisjStefan,  just dd the iso file to a usb. Or under windows . i used the tools from pendrivelinux to make one earlier today that worked14:22
edgyglosoli: how can I check?14:24
jStefanpenguin42, ok thanks14:25
glosoliedgy: just remove nvidia driver and do: http://bpaste.net/show/24514/14:25
edgyglosoli: nvidia works with my old kernel, can't I just keep it and enable the open source driver for this kernel only?14:28
glosoliedgy: well, I don't know if you can, and if you can, I don't know how to14:30
glosoliedgy: what problem do you have with older kernel ?14:30

glosoliRaggs: promising14:37
Raggsmajor bugs or is it fairly stable at this point?14:38
glosoliRaggs: for me it's fairly stable with some anyoing minor bugs :)14:38
bufalo1973hello14:40
Raggsglosoli: i might just have to wait for it to come out14:41
kandinskihi, how stable is pangolin already?14:41
kandinskiworth risking the update of my main laptp?14:42
glosoliRaggs: well for example getting screen distortion for a few seconds until it properly loads into desktop :) At the moment no custom themes are working fine with Ubuntu, no icons set were updated and so on :)14:42
glosolikandinski: I'm using it on main14:42
yofelfeel free to try it - but make backups14:42
kandinskiI have /home in a different partition14:43
kandinskibut right14:43

glosoliWell you can always run into some problems, but we're here to fight against them together14:43
glosoli:)14:43
kandinskiglosoli, ta14:44
glosoliBut anyway any contribution into using Precise will make it work better in Final release14:44
kandinskithe thing is overweight opposum or whatever 11.10 is called eats my batterylike it's choc chip cookies14:45
kandinskiand I just read that precise has a fix for that14:45
DaekdroomThe ASPM fix, yes.14:45
yofelright, the kernel fixes for aspm help a lot on my notebook14:45
bufalo1973is there some idea about "pipelining" apt-get? I mean downloading packages while installing others, instead of download-all-&-then-install14:46
bobweaverHi there is there some thing different in 12.04 then there is in all the rest when it comes to *.desktop files? Today is ubuntu global jam and I thought that adding unity  Quicklists was a good idea for me but after reading and looking at my *.desktop files they all seem different compaired to where I am reading from could someone look at that and tell me if it for real or not ..   http://mhall119.com/2012/02/contributing-to-unity-for-non-14:46
bobweaverdevelopers-quicklists/14:46
glosoliyofel: do I need apply that ASPM somehow customly or it is applied by default14:47
glosoli ?14:47
bobweaverI tried to do it to filezilla and this is what I put http://paste.ubuntu.com/866726/ no it is not in menu no biggie I will just change back made backup's but would like to do this for the jam today14:48
yofelglosoli: by default14:48
ChogyDanWhat exactly is the "gcc toolchain" and how can I learn it?14:48
bobweavers|no|now14:48
penguin42ChogyDan: gcc is the Gnu Compiler COllection14:49
penguin42ChogyDan: It's the C, C++ and Fortran  compiler used on Linux (and a lot of other things)14:49
glosoliyofel: but still Ubuntu is far away from windows for battery lasting time.. When I used Windows it lasted 3 hours, with Ubuntu Precise even 2 hours14:49
yofelwell, there's still room for improvements sure, but the aspm fixes for me mean 3h -> 5h14:50
penguin42glosoli: Try running powertop and seeing if it gives any suggestions for tweeks (note some of the things it suggests may cause crashes)14:50
yofelwhich is enough for me14:50
ChogyDanpenguin42: do you know which programs other than gcc I should learn about so I can say I know the "gcc tollchain"?  I was looking for an IDE, and folks keep saying that one needs to learn the gcc toolchain regardless if you use an IDE14:51
glosolipenguin42: Ah, I am better then with lower battery lifetime but stable system :)14:51
ChogyDanlike for a c++ project14:51
penguin42glosoli: Most of the problems you get with powerotps suggestions will kill it with in a few seconds; so try the suggestion and if it's OK don't worry14:52
glosolipenguin42: who will kill it hmm ?14:53
penguin42ChogyDan: Well if you just want to write a C++ project you don't really need to know a lot about gcc; it's the C compiler and just doing      gcc myprogram.C -o myprogram    will compile it for a simple one; life gets a little more complex with multiple files; there are some separate IDEs though - I don't normally use them14:53
yofelbbl14:53
penguin42glosoli: Sorry, I mean when you try some of the things powertop says sometimes your machine will crash within a few seconds; if it doesn't then just keep using the option it suggests14:53
ChogyDanpenguin42: ultimately, I would like to help with unity14:53
glosolipenguin42: how to revert if it crashes ?14:54
penguin42ChogyDan: OK, I don't know much about the inside of Unity14:54
penguin42glosoli: Most of the things Powertop suggests it tells you things like 'Try disabling ____' and it'll give you the command to do it but doesn't save it, so it should be back to normal after a reboot14:54
ChogyDanpenguin42: well, thanks for your advice!  its a start.14:55

nOStahlhows it going15:57
qw-Russianplease*15:57
Dr_WillisWith what?15:57
Dr_Willisbeg for help.. then clam up....16:01
ironhalik;>16:02
nOStahlDr_Willis: you working on ubuntu 12.04 or just a user16:02
Dr_Willisjust loaded it yesterday to test out.16:04
Dr_Willisso far runs good on my very problematic ati desktop and runs well on the netbook16:04
nOStahlnew user interface is up now right?16:04
Dr_Willisnew? they have been tweaking unity since day 1 :)16:05
Dr_Willisyea.. gnome-shell is now working correctly on my ati desktop16:05
nOStahlsaid march 1st test build of new user interface?16:05
Dr_Willisthey may ment that HUD feature16:05
ironhalikHUD, in Unity2d16:05
Dr_Williswich seems like a neat idea. but in some ways seems like a work around for a bigger problem of overlycomplex menus16:05
ironhalikits kinda neat, could use some better alghoritms for picking the suggestions16:06
Dr_WillisI cant even see the suggestions with the theme/wallpaper i am using16:06
ironhalikhud in terminal, for the word 'new' gives new profile, while new tab would be a much better suggestion16:07
Dr_Willisvery hard for me to read the suggestions. i got a grey background and set the panel colors to a greyish also.16:10
Dr_Willisdefault colors are a bit better. :) but over all the hud seems like a neat idea that may not catch on.16:12
Dr_Willisor will take some 'relearning' to learn to use effectively16:13
* penguin42 hasn't used the hud - but I was just watching the demo video, hud-cli actually looks very neat16:15
Dr_Willis hud-cli16:16
Dr_Willis** CRITICAL **: main: assertion `session != NULL' failed16:16
Dr_Willis:) dosent like being ran over ssh it seems16:16
penguin42Dr_Willis: It probably could if you get the right env variables to point to your session16:17
Dr_Willisseems to need a bit of work also.. it just started printing ctrl-j when i hit delete. backspace worked. :)16:18
* penguin42 wonders why ctrl-j of all things16:19
Dr_Willisctrl-h is backspace. ctrl-j is delete isent it? also seemed to print A and B for the arrow keys. :)16:19
Dr_Willisbut its a basic tool for testing16:19
Dr_Willisreading up on the lastest at -> http://www.webupd8.org/2012/03/ubuntu-1204-lts-beta-1-released.html16:21
penguin42no, delete is 127 ascii16:21
Dr_Willishurray for showing a shortcuts helper when holding the super key.. too bad my old box's dont een have keybrds with a super key. :)16:22
Dr_Willisgotta love heavy IBM-Model-M's16:22
KM0201can anyone recommend a good, reasonably inexpensive, server case for the home?  Preferrably 0-1 5.25in bays, at least 5-6 3.5bays16:24
KM0201and preferrably not humongous16:24
Dr_Willisa 7 bay case thats not huge? :)16:24
KM0201they're out there, you just gotta look16:24
Dr_Willisproblem is with hds packed in tight - is heat.16:25
KM0201i thought about one of those Lian Li  cubes, but dont' like their layout16:25
KM0201yeah, see, thats my other issue.16:25
Dr_WillisI tend to get antec because thats what i find on sale :)16:25
KM0201for sure.16:25
Dr_Willisbut i havbent needed more then 4 hds in a box for some time.16:26
nOStahlI'm playing with a dell power edge 2850 server right now16:26
KM0201usually fry's has coolermaster cases on sale16:26
KM0201well, the box is only gonna have 4 HD's, but.. i figure  might as well have room to expand fi necessary16:26
Dr_Williswith more then 4 hds heat and power can get  to be a problem.   I think i got 5 hds in one old machine and weight can be an issue. :)16:26
nOStahlwhy is weight an issue16:27
nOStahlare you taking it to lag parties?16:27
Dr_WillisI like extra drive bays.. because i found these 'storage drawers' that fit in a drive bay. just the right size to hold recovery media and flash drives16:27
KM0201i also like the clean look on the front, w/o a bunch of unused bays being there.16:27
KM0201really?16:27
KM0201where'd you get those?16:27
Dr_Williswhen you got 3 pcs sitting on a desk.. it started to bend..16:27
nOStahllol16:27
Dr_Willisgot them at compusa ages ago.. not really seen them in stores lately16:28
Dr_Willisthis P900 (i think) case i got ages ago had neat clips for holding the hds. made things nice. :)16:28
Dr_Willisand both sides came off, so you could plug them in easy.16:28
KM0201i guess i could always jsut get a sonata16:29
nOStahllike these? http://compare.ebay.com/like/320854998434?var=lv&ltyp=AllFixedPriceItemTypes&var=sbar16:29
KM0201those are such good cases, and you can usually find them pretty cheap (60-70)16:29
KM0201thats awesome16:29
Dr_WillisI must have 5+ old pc cases out in the garrage. :016:29
KM0201friggin $6 shipping!16:29
KM0201Dr_Willis: hmm, anyu of them fit my needs?16:30
KM0201lets make a deal..lol16:30
Dr_Willisif you were in kokomo indiana, id give them to you.16:30
Dr_WillisI dont even rember why they are int he garrage.. dead ps perhaps.. or has a dead mb still in them..16:31
KM0201i'm in Indy!16:31
Dr_Willisso it  would be a  70+ mile drive round trip for ya. :)16:32
KM0201lol16:32
KM0201at $4 a gallon, i'll just go to Fry's..lol16:32
Dr_Willisand gas is $4 a gal.. :)16:32
KM0201they've always got uber cheap cases there... just none of them ever seem to meet my needs16:32
Dr_WillisGet the hot pink ones.. :)16:32
KM0201lol16:33
Dr_Williswell i will bbl. gotta help the wife16:33
KM0201l8r16:33
nOStahli've never been to a frys16:35
KM0201it's pretty nice.. just be careful, if you walk in and look remotely like you're having trouble, you'll be surrounded by employees.16:36
nOStahlheh16:36
KM0201i was just reading a box on a motherboard one time, and 4 different guys came up to me asking if i needed help..lol16:37
nOStahlcheaper than best buy for components?16:37
KM0201that is the nice thing though, unlike Worst Buy, etc.. they have motherboards, CPU's, etc16:37
KM0201maybe on some things, i honestly dion't buy a lot of stuff at BB or Frys'16:37
nOStahlall cheaper online16:38
KM0201our BB, really only carries optical drives, hard drives, RAM, and video/sound cards.16:38
nOStahllocal places are just for when your power supply dies on a friday night heh16:38
KM0201yeah, it is.. but then you gotta ship, etc16:38

glosoliThe issue has been settled, and if you care enough about it, you'll find18:50
glosolithe rationale and be satisfied that at least it was considered and18:50
glosoliexperimented with and decided against. This was one of my favourite18:50
glosolifeatures too, but I believe taking it out makes the whole better.18:50
glosolioh sorry pastebin18:50
glosolistrange comment, he could have let silent set for that feature18:50

alkisgHi, in one new Precise installation I saw dnsmasq installed by default for local DNS caching. But I don't have it here in my older Precise installation. Which package does that?19:31
jpdsalkisg: resolvconf, I think.19:33
alkisgThanks, /me looks...19:33
alkisgHmm no, it doesn't have dnsmasq in depends nor in recommends19:33
jpdsalkisg: Enhances: ..., dnsmasq,19:34
jpdsalkisg: dnsmasq Suggests: resolvconf.19:35
alkisgjpds: but what installs dnsmasq?19:35
alkisgThere's no dependency or recommendation there19:35
jpdsalkisg: network-manager→dnsmasq-base.19:36
alkisgOK let me get it another way. Could someone running precise run ps aux|grep dnsmasq, and tell me the command line there, because I don't have it?19:36
alkisgdnsmasq-base was there in previous versions too19:36
alkisgBut it wasn't used as a caching server then, only for link-local networks19:36
alkisg(the main reason that I'm looking at all this is that this new dns cache will break our setups, as we're using dnsmasq for a normal dns server, and there was a conflict in that new installation that I saw, but I can't reproduce it here without installing precise all over again...)19:37
Ampelbeinalkisg: See http://www.stgraber.org/2012/02/24/dns-in-ubuntu-12-04/19:38
alkisgthanks, looking...19:38
alkisgNo /run/nm-dns-dnsmasq.conf here... probably some postinst script checked and saw that I already had dnsmasq installed, and didn't do it for my installation19:41

ironhalikhmm, if dnsmasq is not caching, what is it for? :>20:00
ironhalikalkisg: the local dns thing was disabled due to security concerns20:00
ironhalikI personally use bind9 for dns caching20:01
alkisgironhalik: wait, I saw the problem 2 days ago, was it disabled after that?20:01
alkisgOr do you mean the caching, but not the resolution?20:02
ironhalikI mean local caching20:02
alkisgOK I don't mind about that, I mind that this dnsmasq instance is conflicting with our regular dnsmasq for port 5320:03
ironhalikHmm, there was someone here with similiar problem20:04
ironhalikbut cant remember how it turned out20:04
alkisgAt least, if I can (1) reproduce the new behavior, cause now I don't get it at all, and (2) manage to disable it somehow, e.g. by commenting out #dns=dnsmasq in /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf, then it's not too bad... :)20:05

allain_Hello folks. I'm working successfully with my laptop on linux... ever with 12.04 and am ecstatic. I only have one remaining problem and then this system is perfect. Specifically, connecting through wifi freezes up my system unless I have an ethernet cable unplugged.21:04
allain_I'd solved it before on Debian 6.0.4 by uninstalling network-manager and then configuring everything through the /etc/network/interfaces file. The problem is that I really like the simplicity of the network-manager when I'm connecting to public wifis. Since I work mostly from coffee shops, this is a big deal for me.21:06
allain_Any thoughts, or a pointer to a more appropriate channel to ask in?21:06
beniwtvHi all... I am testing the new precise beta 1, and there is something curious that was not there in oneiric - pulseaudio seems to start on system bootup, even if I am not logged in and still on the login screen. Looking in /etc/ I have not seen anything obvious that would start it and the init.d script seems to do nothing. Any ideas what starts pulseaudio on system start?21:16

allain_r a pointer to a more appropriate channel to ask in?21:19
spacebug-beniwtv: it is started in /etc/rc2.d/S50pulseaudio21:19
spacebug-(which is default runlevel)21:20
beniwtvspacebug-: That was my first guess - that script checks /etc/default/pulseaudio (parameter PULSE_SYSYEM_START), which needs to be 1, but I checked and it's 0.21:21
beniwtvAnother clue was that that script passes some arguments, which on my instance are missing.21:22
penguin42allain_: OK, that shouldn't happen so start by reporting a bug, 2nd I guess I'd try starting the connection from a text terminal and see if some errors come out - see if there is a kernel panic or anything else21:22
spacebug-beniwtv: that is true. Hum.. then I don't know. Maybe somehow lightdm starts it?21:23
beniwtvspacebug-: That's what I am thinking, but so far I am unable to find where this is configured...21:24
allain_penguin42. Thanks. Will do.21:24
spacebug-beniwtv: how do you know it is started before you log in?21:25
beniwtvspacebug-: I'm on ssh, doing simply a ps ax... If I stop lightdm, pulseaudio goes away, if I start it again, it's there...21:26
spacebug-yes. Looking at an old boot chart file, I can see that gdm starts pulseaudio so probably lightdm does it now. But it should not start until you login. lightdm does not handle ssh-logins21:28
beniwtvspacebug-: It could be the unity greeter...21:30
spacebug-hum21:33
spacebug-beniwtv: on my system (oneiric updated to precise) it does not start until I have logged in using lightdm. Well I havent tested logging in with ssh but looking at the pid # of lightdm and pulseaudio then pulseaudio is started after and is also started as my user (lightdm is not, it is started as root)21:36
beniwtvspacebug-: Well, the funny part is that pulse starts as my user when I start lightdm via /etc/init.d/lightdm start21:37
beniwtverr no... sorry it starts as lightdm21:38
Siegel-hello. i upgraded to 12.4 yesterday and my wifi doesnt work anymore. the little wifi icon on my keyboard doesnt light up anymore. network connections says wireless is unavailable. what do i do/21:44
tr33m4nSiegel-, what network card do you have?21:44
Siegel-im not sure. how do i find that out?21:44
tr33m4ntry 'lspci -v' in the terminal21:45
tr33m4nshould display something concerning your network card21:46
Siegel-yes lots of stuff21:46
Siegel-which one is it21:46
tr33m4nsomething that mentions Ethernet controller perhaps?21:47
bjsniderlspci -vvnn21:47
glosolizzecool: Nautilus bug has been fixed.21:48
Siegel-tr33m4n: Subsystem: Dell Wireless 1370 WLAN Mini-PCI Card [1028:0005]21:49
bjsnideryes but what chip is it using21:50
zutihm. i seem to be having issues with the provided wine version that i didn't have with the one i had compiled earlier. has anyone complied the "official" wine source with 12.04?21:51
Siegel-bjsnider: where do i see that?21:52
tr33m4nSiegel-, from a bit of googling it would appear Broadcom21:52
Siegel-Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller [14e4:4318] (rev 02)21:52
tr33m4nSiegel-, have a look here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx21:53
Siegel-ok thanks ill have a look later21:54
Siegel-tr33m4n: and once i identify it, how do i install it? i have to find the linux driver for it?21:54
Siegel-maybe the new version doesnt support it? is it possible/ would it be better to go back to two versions ago/21:55
tr33m4nSiegel-, it explains that in the links I posted21:55
Siegel-tr33m4n: ok thank you. ill have a look later.21:55
tr33m4nSiegel-, Also, I have a broadcom chipset in one of my systems and I installed a fresh copy of 12.04. It worked fine, however I had to install the drivers from the install disk as they are not included in the standard install, however are included as extras21:56
bjsniderread the wiki page21:56
Siegel-tr33m4n: i see. i just did an upgrade. no disk21:56
bjsniderthat's the ticket21:56
Siegel-bjsnider: yeah i guess when you do the upgrade things go missing, right? so i guess i should just create a startup disk and reformat the computer21:58
bjsniderwhy?21:58
tr33m4nSiegel-, if you download 12.04 iso, mount it, go into pool/restricted/b/bcmwl and install that package, all should work21:59
Siegel-tr33m4n: i see21:59
Siegel-tr33m4n: in fact i think im going to go back to the latest official release and skip the betas from now on22:00
tr33m4nSiegel-, fair enough :) they're betas for a reason22:00
Siegel-yes22:00
Siegel-problem is how do i create a startup disk for an earlier versionnow/22:01
spacebug-beniwtv: "ps auex | grep bin/pulseaudio" shows the envoronment pulseaduio is started with and there I can see that I am logged in to a gnome/unity session and LOGNAME=spacebug and so on22:01
tr33m4nSiegel-, you'll have to do a fresh reinstall I reckon, just download 11.10 and make sure you've backed up whatever you need (for future installs I'd suggest putting your /home on a seperate partition so you can preserve important data)22:02
spacebug-beniwtv: same result should be given by the command:   cat /proc/$(pidof pulseaudio)/environ22:02
tr33m4nSiegel-, You could possibly try and downgrade however the amount of problems that could cause would be vast22:03
Siegel-tr33m4n: i dont need backup. i save nothing. tr33m4n why do you suggest 11.10 instead of 10.04?22:03
Siegel-tr33m4n: a fresh reinstall whilst deleting all data sounds ideal. i need to create a startup disk then or usb stick. ill just get a usb stick as my computer doesnt burn cds22:04
tr33m4nSiegel-, 11.10 is the latest stable Ubuntu release, if you've upgraded from 10.04 I'm not surprised things are not working. Ubuntu 10.04 is the Long Term Support version for servers and ultra stable computers22:04
Siegel-tr33m4n: i see so the difference for me is irrelevant. i understand. so 11.10 is what i had all the way up until yesterday and my wireless worked with it. though some flash players wouldnt work for me. such as veehd.com, gorillavid22:05
beniwtvspacebug-: Hmmm.. running that ps command reveals lightdm started it - seems via d-bus activation22:05
Siegel-even though i had the restricted extras installed as well as adobe flash22:05
Siegel-i upgraded yesterday from 11.10 tr33m4n , not from 10.0422:06
tr33m4nSiegel-, You will find a startup usb disk utility in Ubuntu, simply download an Ubuntu 11.10 iso for your computers architecture (32bit or 64) and use the program to put the iso to usb drive22:06
tr33m4nSiegel-, ah fair enough22:06
Siegel-tr33m4n: yeah i know it. i just need a usb stick first. lol22:07
spacebug-beniwtv: hum ok22:07
Siegel-tr33m4n: anyway thanks. youve cleared up some things. ill work on it tomorrow. bye22:07
skinkie1hi I have installed Ubuntu Server 12.04 beta22:09

skinkie1now i am trying to compile a program depending on libxml2, still it gives me: undefined reference to `xmlStrncmp'22:09
skinkie1libraries are installed, contain the function, can't get what is wrong here and why it doesnt link22:10
bjsniderskinkie1, which lib contains the function?22:15
skinkie1libxml2.so22:16
skinkie1it is the most common function in there22:16

MCR1Could someone tell me why compiz crashes on Precise here when I click the right mousebutton ?23:23
MCR1It seems that the crashreport app does not catch the crash, so it does not get reported.23:24
MCR1I do not have any freaky hardware here, so I am wondering if I am the only person to experience this nasty bug.23:24
MCR1?23:24
spacebug-MCR1: can you see somehting with dmesg ? or maybe in /var/log/syslog ?23:25
MCR1Quite hard to work with a system without using the right mousebutton (in some cases even impossible)...23:25

ironhalikpreferably, right after the crash and reboot23:33
