ubottu | If you install a development version of Ubuntu Precise and keep up with package updates, then you will be upgraded to the official release of 12.04 when it comes out. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a terminal. Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1. | 02:41 |

tokarbol | universe packages seem to link with different libdb than the main packages | 11:13 |
tokarbol | it happened in lucid, dunno about the distros in between | 11:13 |
tokarbol | but in precise it's still there | 11:13 |
tokarbol | actually there is more | 11:15 |
tokarbol | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libpam-ccreds/+bug/731918 | 11:15 |
ubottu | Launchpad bug 731918 in libpam-ccreds (Ubuntu) "libpam-ccreds linked against libdb4.7" [Undecided,New] | 11:15 |
tokarbol | it seems that precise links libpam-ccreds against libdb4.8 | 11:15 |
tokarbol | while in main there's libdb5.1 | 11:16 |
tokarbol | I don't see a reason why all packages wouldn't link with libdb5.1, | 11:16 |
tokarbol | at this point I think that main packages link to libdb5.1, universe to libdb4.8 | 11:16 |
tokarbol | is there some reason behind it? | 11:17 |
tokarbol | The source for both libpam-ccreds and nss-updatedb just build-depend on libdb-dev | 11:22 |
tokarbol | so when building these will link to the berkeley db available on the build machine | 11:22 |
tokarbol | if the build machine has libdb5.1-dev, the built packages will have libdb5.1 in binary deps | 11:23 |
tokarbol | is it so that the universe packages are built on a different machine? Why does it have libdb4.8, not libdb5.1? | 11:23 |
tokarbol | Anyone? | 11:24 |
Trewas | because it (libpam-ccreds) has not been rebuilt in a couple of years, and probably lidb4.8 was the default then | 11:26 |
tokarbol | not true, all the packages are rebuilt against each distro | 11:27 |
tokarbol | there has not been much code change, that's a different story | 11:27 |
tokarbol | (if any code change at all) | 11:28 |
Trewas | the version is the same for last three releases, and I don't think universe is auto-built for each new distro release | 11:28 |
tokarbol | I believe it is - otherwise there would be a dazillion bug reports with ABI compatibility issues. | 11:29 |
Trewas | *shrug* debian doesn't at least, and they seem to be doing fine | 11:30 |
tokarbol | well, this may be the case for debian unstable/testing, but I think that the packages are recompiled for stable | 11:31 |
tokarbol | I am trying to find the build logs for this package | 11:32 |
Trewas | no, stable is just a renamed testing, definitely without full rebuild between calling it "testing" and "stable" | 11:32 |
tokarbol | wow, you might be right WRT this package | 11:35 |

ScG^Dedicated | no problems | 14:05 |
glosoli | ScG^Dedicated: Got working built drivers ? or you using the old and slow ones from jockey | 14:05 |
glosoli | ? | 14:05 |
ScG^Dedicated | no idea I use a VM so I think I use default | 14:06 |
glosoli | So you don't use ati drivers | 14:06 |
glosoli | you use open source ones then | 14:06 |
glosoli | :) | 14:06 |
ScG^Dedicated | i gues :P | 14:06 |
glosoli | ATI just wastes my time. | 14:07 |
FlipStonE | ok, with proprietary drivers i can now play video... unity3d still not working... | 14:14 |
glosoli | FlipStonE: same problem | 14:18 |
glosoli | >> /join #ati | 14:18 |
glosoli | i am trying to get help for that problem | 14:18 |
h00k | huh, occasionally when I pull the HUD up, the application I'm using will snap to center-screen | 14:29 |

NOSaturn | how do i set the primary monitor - so that new windows open on the right monitor and not the left? I have an intel graphics ship, so the nvidia tool won't apply. i'm on 12.04 and it's worse than on 11.10 | 16:39 |
dr_willis | I find 12.04 much improved. | 16:41 |
NOSaturn | it is, but the dual monitor "improvements" dont see to be improved | 16:43 |
dr_willis | My desk is to small for 2 monitors at this time | 16:44 |
dr_willis | Guess i could hange one on the wall. :) | 16:44 |
NOSaturn | :) i know i'm lucky. it makes up for the crappy inbuilt display on the laptop | 16:46 |
delight | http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ out of sync ? many debs ain't synced while the repo indexes are on pointing to new debs. | 16:58 |
delight | Err http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main nvidia-common i386 1:0.2.40 | 16:58 |
delight | 404 Not Found | 16:58 |
ikonia | delight: talk to the mirror owner | 17:05 |
delight | ikonia: who is that ? | 17:05 |
ikonia | he may not be syncing the dev repo | 17:05 |
ikonia | delight: look on the mirrors page | 17:05 |
ikonia | he may have made a mistake | 17:05 |
delight | ikonia: it worked up till yesterday ... so it must be some problem | 17:06 |
ikonia | ok, so either a.) contact the maintainer b.) wait for it to be fixed | 17:06 |
FernandoMiguel | delight: http://paste.ubuntu.com/874830/ use the MIRROR part on that list | 17:08 |
FernandoMiguel | it will pick one of the available close to you | 17:08 |
ldiamond | in Ubuntu 12.04, is there an alternative to Unity? Something more similar to gnome classic? | 17:09 |
dr_willis | the classic thing is still there i belive. or use gnome-shell | 17:09 |
dr_willis | or install some other desktop. lubuntu, xfce, or whatever. | 17:10 |
ldiamond | but isn't gnome-shell basically the same? | 17:10 |
dr_willis | gnome0-shell has a fallback mode i recall. | 17:10 |
dr_willis | I dont use the fallback/classic modes.. gnome-2 is dead.. time to move on. :) | 17:10 |
dr_willis | if i wanted an old-skool desktop id use Lubuntu | 17:10 |
philinux | ldiamond: http://www.webupd8.org/2012/02/more-classic-gnome-session-lands-in.html | 17:10 |
philinux | That is gnome 3 | 17:11 |
ldiamond | philinux, so your point is that Unity isn't as retarded in 12.04? | 17:11 |
dr_willis | theres work on some gnome-2 type theme/stuff for gnome-3 | 17:12 |
ldiamond | and that I should give it a second chance? | 17:12 |
dr_willis | Unity works fine for me in 12.04 | 17:12 |
dr_willis | do what you want. :) | 17:12 |
valdur55 | and there is HUD | 17:12 |
dr_willis | its very possible that in the NEXT release 12.10 that the failsafe/fallback stuff may eventually get removed. | 17:12 |
dr_willis | it was supposed to be a stop-gap measure. | 17:12 |
philinux | ldiamond: This is very useful. Myunity 3.0 http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2012/02/unity-tweaking-tool-gets-new-look-new-features/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+d0od+%28OMG!+Ubuntu!%29 | 17:13 |
ldiamond | I dunno, seemed like in 11.04, Unity was just missing everything I liked about gnome. | 17:13 |
* dr_willis recalls how much the old gnome was missing from all the earlier window managers/desktops that he liked. | 17:14 | |
philinux | ldiamond: if you want the old look then lubuntu maybe it for you or xfce instead | 17:14 |
ldiamond | I dunno, seemed like xfce was years behind gnome2 | 17:15 |
philinux | ldiamond: not any more | 17:15 |
ldiamond | and that I every time something was missing I had to spend ages to add the feature | 17:15 |
* dr_willis wonders if theres any screen saver config settings in 12.04 :) | 17:15 | |
ldiamond | alright, I'll give Unity a shot in 12.04. | 17:16 |
ldiamond | Otherwise I might just go with Linux Mint, though I don't know what they'll end up doing... fork gnome2 maybe? | 17:16 |
philinux | dr_willis: the package gnome-screensaver is still there | 17:17 |
dr_willis | but are there any actual settings. :) | 17:18 |
dr_willis | I recall for ages under gnome2 you couldent set much of anything in the screen saver settings. | 17:19 |
dr_willis | of course im so old i rember the big 'ximian gnome fork' chaos and fun. :) | 17:19 |
quantumlemur | I'm interested in undervolting my cpu, but from what I've read online, you have to use a patched kernel, and it hasn't been done yet with 12.04 (linux-PHC). does anyone have any experience/ | 17:21 |
Cenbe | Hi, just installed beta 1 of Precise, but can't get software updates or installs ("failed to fetch...", "file format not recognized..."). | 17:24 |
Cenbe | Anybody else having this problem? | 17:24 |
ScG^Dedicated | Cenbe I do not have that problem | 17:34 |
Cenbe | grrr | 17:34 |
bazhang | Cenbe, whats the exact error? was it 404 not found or something else | 17:54 |
ironhalik | anyone knows where I can disable my LAN adapter from Ubuntu? | 17:57 |
ironhalik | to completely turn it off | 17:57 |
philinux | ironhalik: do you mean temporarily disable networking | 17:58 |
ironhalik | well, I want to disable eth0 adapter, but leave wlan0 | 18:00 |
ironhalik | Dell's drivers for windows did just that, on battery power they completely disabled LAN interface | 18:00 |
scar3crow | having problems compiling vmware modules... help? | 18:04 |
roothorick | what package name do I use for sound drivers? | 18:05 |
roothorick | (when reporting a bug) | 18:05 |
erujolc | installed ubuntu 12.04 beta 1, did apt-get update and upgrade etc.. reboot several times, but cant seem to activate amd drivers, system tells me it using VESA:RV635 atm.. | 18:06 |
roothorick | does Xorg.0.log say anything about a "radeon" or "radeonhd" driver? | 18:07 |
philinux | ironhalik: I'm not a networking guy but I remember this sudo ifdown eth0, ifup enables it again | 18:08 |
ironhalik | philinux: yeah, but Im not sure if it powers down the adapter | 18:08 |
roothorick | since we're talking about networking, is there a way to temporarily give an interface a static IP in a way that network manager is "aware" of it? | 18:08 |
ironhalik | thanks though | 18:09 |
roothorick | if I just use ifconfig networkmanager eventually disables the interface on me | 18:09 |
erujolc | roothrick, graphics are sluggish and Settings --> Details --> Graphics say Experience: Standard, Driver: VESA:RV635, will check Xorg.0.log | 18:10 |
erujolc | nothing | 18:11 |
roothorick | it doesn't even try to load radeonhd? | 18:11 |
erujolc | oh wait. i just greped for radeon, will pastebin now looks like a stack trace | 18:12 |
roothorick | the DRI status matrix says your card should be mostly supported, good enough for Unity at least | 18:14 |
erujolc | im having a bad moment, all my shortcuts from urxvt/archlinux arent here how do I copy from gnome-terminal | 18:15 |
erujolc | http://pastebin.com/bXEMCAms | 18:16 |
erujolc | roothorick, out of interest how did you know what card i had? | 18:16 |
roothorick | RV635 :) | 18:16 |
erujolc | ah.. paranoia set in a moment admittedly :) | 18:17 |
roothorick | most videocards have two names, the sales name e.g. Radeon HD 3600 and the chip name e.g. RV635 | 18:17 |
roothorick | driver developers usually work with chip name as that's what's on the datasheet, if one exists | 18:18 |
roothorick | I see elsewhere in that log though, fglrx is loading just fine... | 18:18 |
roothorick | take another look at that log. Any errors from fglrx? | 18:19 |
roothorick | There'll be a pisston of II and == but is there any EE? | 18:19 |
erujolc | nothing obvious at the moment, trying after restart as this time hasnt crashed control panel changing a setting.. 2m | 18:21 |
Cenbe | bazhang: "failed to fetch... no entry in release file", "file format not recognized", "GPG error... doesn't start with a clearsigned message"... | 18:22 |
Cenbe | I have a good network connection. | 18:22 |
bazhang | Cenbe, delight was complaining of some thing similar a bit earlier. | 18:23 |
bazhang | I think it is not strictly a 12.04 issue but repos in general as I get the same and I am on 11.04 | 18:23 |
Cenbe | Too bad, I'd like to have a look at it. | 18:23 |

kanliot | man i'm having this problem where sometimes lines don't print in gnome-terminal if the program only outputs a single line. its so damn annoying! | 19:02 |
Cenbe | Actually, I often have trouble with software updates on Kubuntu. I have the "delete and re-create /var/lib/apt/lists" trick memorized. | 19:05 |
dr_willis | cant say ive ever had that issue Cenbe | 19:07 |
kanliot | maybe it's a bad package that you don't have | 19:08 |
blafoo | Hello! I've some Problems with Kubuntu 12.04 beta and Bluetooth. Although I've activated Bluetooth in th system settings I can't connect to any of my Bluetooth devices: Samsung SGH-U800 or Logitech M55b. With Kubuntu 11.04 (on an other mashine) both work. What to do to make them work with 12.04b? (Used hardware with Kubuntu 12.04b: Asus Zenbook UX31E) | 19:19 |

ratcheer | Can the new Catalyst 12.2 driver work with Precise and support 3D? | 21:18 |
tojochacko | While upgrading to Precise(12.04) from Oneiric(11.10) my computer rebooted. After that my unity session won't start. Somehow I managed to explicitly start the unity session using 'startx' command and finish my upgrade. Now everytime my computer reboots, I need to issue the 'startx' command else my Unity won't start. Can someone please help me with this issue? | 21:21 |

ratcheer | I will word my problem differently. I installed Catalyst 12.2 on Ubuntu 12.04. It now runs Unity2D instead of Unity. I have verified in Xorg.0.log that the new 64-bit driver is loaded. Is there a way to get into regular 3D Unity with this driver? | 21:26 |

glosoli | why there is 12.2 deb for debian repos and no for ubuntu http://packages.debian.org/sid/fglrx-driver ? | 22:13 |
glosoli | who the hell is responsible for fglrx in ubuntu ? | 22:14 |
glosoli | anyone here knows where I can find the lazy person who is responsible for fglrx in ubuntu ? | 22:32 |
yofel | glosoli: probably to be found in #ubuntu-x, but note that in ubuntu the fglrx version is used, not the catalyst version | 22:37 |
glosoli | fglrx version is 2 versions out of date | 22:37 |
