[11:03] <Andy80> hi
[11:03] <Andy80> I was reading this http://benjaminkerensa.com/2012/09/25/technical-diagram-of-how-unity-shopping-lens-likely-works - do you confirm me that everything I enter in my dash is trasmitted to productsearch.ubuntu.com O_o ?!
[11:04] <Andy80> I'm not concerned about Amazon knowing what I'm looking for (when I'm actually searching a product)
[11:04] <Andy80> I'm concerned about Canonical: how they distinguish if I'm looking for a local file name or for an online thing?
[11:04] <davidcalle> Andy80, currently yes, but a setting to remove remote calls from the Home Dash (and other lenses) is worked on, should land soon.
[11:05] <Andy80> davidcalle: and this also happens with 12.04 or it hasn't remote calls enabled?
[11:06] <davidcalle> Andy80, on 12.04, it only happens from the Videos lens. But you can filter the search and target a specific provider or your local files only.
[11:06] <Andy80> davidcalle: ok, thanks for the clarification
[11:07] <davidcalle> Andy80, np
[12:18] <dandrader> nautilus is not being spawned to draw the desktop background. And it makes no difference if I run it manually. What could be wrong? (I'm in quantal)
[12:18] <seb128> dandrader, is "ubuntu-settings" installed?
[12:18] <dandrader> and the strangest thing is that for one of my users it works fine
[12:18] <dandrader> but not for any users that I create...
[12:19] <seb128> dandrader, nautilus upstream defaults to not displaying the background
[12:19]  * dandrader checks
[12:19] <dandrader> hmm, ubuntu-settings is not installed. doing it now
[12:20]  * dandrader log off and in again
[12:20] <dandrader> awesome! it's working now!
[12:20] <dandrader> seb128, thanks a lot!
[12:20] <seb128> dandrader, yw
[12:21] <seb128> dandrader, you might want to (re)install ubuntu-desktop
[12:21] <seb128> you might be missing other things
[12:21] <dandrader> hmm, ok
[12:22] <dandrader> hmm, I'm missing a handful of packages indeed
[13:10] <anant> I'm trying to build unity from source by reading instructions at http://unity.ubuntu.com/getinvolved/development/unity/
[13:10] <anant> "sudo apt-get build-dep nux" mentioned as one of the commands fails with "Unable to find a source package for nux" ..
[13:22] <anant> could someone please help me build unity from source .. I'm a newbie :)
[14:06] <mhall119> anant: try build-dep nux-3.0
[14:31] <anant> mhall119: same problem ...
[14:32] <snwh> I'm not certain of this is the place but: I'm having difficulties with either lightdm or the unity-greeter, where it will not allow me to log in. (using gdm in the meantime)
[14:32] <snwh> in 12.10*
[14:38] <mhr3> anant, libnux<tab>
[14:39] <mhr3> anant, but you really want build deps of unity, not of nux
[14:40] <anant> mhr3: I was following the steps in http://unity.ubuntu.com/getinvolved/development/unity/
[14:41] <mhr3> anant, from the section "Building NUX"
[14:43] <anant> mhr3: libnux<tab> gave no options ... infact, libn<tab> gives only libnetcfg
[14:44] <mhr3> i meant .... build-dep libnux<tab>
[14:47] <anant> mhr3: ah .. sorry .. gives "libnux-2.0-"
[14:51] <anant> mhr3: note that among the errors emitted when trying to compile unity ("remake-unity" as per the instructions page), was one for nux: "package 'nux-3.0>=3.0.0' not found"
[14:52] <mhr3> oh you're on precise? it's too hard to compile unity on precise now, you should use Q
[15:00] <anant> mhr3: yes, I'm on precise :( ... actually the whole idea was to work on a bitesize bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/1019457 ... Can I install Quantal on VirtualBox and still work on the bug?
[15:06] <mhr3> anant, sure
[15:08] <anant> mhr3: thanks a ton! I'd been struggling with unity compilation the entire day .. :)
[15:09] <mhr3> anant, getting is to build the first time is pretty hard, i reinstalled yesterday and spent 4 hours on it... even though i knew what i'm doing :)
[15:09] <mhr3> although that was building compiz+nux+unity
[15:32] <mhr3> davidcalle, ping?
[15:33] <davidcalle> mhr3, pong
[15:33] <mhr3> oh.. nvm
[15:33] <mhr3> unping
[15:33] <mhr3> too late :)
[15:35] <davidcalle> mhr3, heh :)
[17:18] <bernie> does anybody have problems with ccsm being unable to parse hotkey strings containing "<Super>" ?
[17:18] <bernie> it started happening a couple of weeks ago
[17:19] <bernie> i can reproduce it on two different ubuntu precise installs
