| AlanBell | anyone else got an MTP music player that won't sync with rhythmbox | 08:52 |
| AlanBell | or show up in banshee | 08:52 |
| Myrtti | my Galaxy Nexus doesn't | 08:57 |
| Myrtti | I'm not sure if it's because it's encrypted or because 12.04 is flaky | 08:57 |
| MartijnVdS | nah | 08:57 |
| MartijnVdS | it's because the MTP implementation is "dumb" | 08:58 |
| Myrtti | there's bugs for it in launchpad | 08:58 |
| MartijnVdS | it tries to enumerate all files on the device on mount | 08:58 |
| MartijnVdS | http://intr.overt.org/blog/?p=153 | 08:59 |
| Myrtti | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libmtp/+bug/903422 | 08:59 |
| MartijnVdS | + https://github.com/philipl/gvfs | 08:59 |
| lubotu3 | Ubuntu bug 903422 in gvfs "Ubuntu does not work with Samsung Galaxy phones (needs update to libmtp)" [Wishlist,In progress] | 08:59 |
| MartijnVdS | Myrtti: that's also linked in the upstreeam bug - https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=666195 | 09:01 |
| lubotu3 | Gnome bug 666195 in general "Mount / Provide access to Android 4 (Ice Cream Sandwich, ICS) MTP devices" [Enhancement,Assigned] | 09:01 |
| Myrtti | well effectively the only way of getting files into my phone is to use Bluetooth. | 09:06 |
| Myrtti | which is more or less unreliable | 09:06 |
| dwatkins | Myrtti: can't you use AirDroid or similar? | 09:07 |
| Myrtti | dwatkins: I categorically refuse to install extra software when things should just work | 09:07 |
| dwatkins | Myrtti: I see your point, and respect it greatly. | 09:08 |
| AlanBell | yeah, I agree Myrtti | 09:08 |
| MartijnVdS | Myrtti: you could run Git gvfs + Philip's patch + git libmtp | 09:08 |
| dwatkins | Did Samsung break something about filesystem support over USB, then? | 09:09 |
| AlanBell | it works *perfectly* for a few CDs but then you try to add more and it falls apart | 09:09 |
| AlanBell | MTP isn't a filesystem protocol as such | 09:09 |
| Myrtti | dwatkins: it's more about not having an microSD card and having only one filesystem | 09:09 |
| dwatkins | oh I see | 09:09 |
| Myrtti | dwatkins: the mass memory can't be offered for USB the same time the phone is on and used by the OS | 09:10 |
| Myrtti | so they need MTP for it. | 09:10 |
| christel | i keep reading MTP as MLP and it totally messes with my brain because it has now convinced itself that you're a brony AlanBell :/ | 09:10 |
| * AlanBell goes to google to find out what christel is on about | 09:10 | |
| AlanBell | oh, right | 09:11 |
| AlanBell | err no, not a brony | 09:11 |
| dwatkins | hehehe | 09:11 |
| * dwatkins hands christel some candyfloss | 09:11 | |
| MartijnVdS | AlanBell: Don't you watch the show with your kids? | 09:11 |
| dwatkins | I should catch up on MLP, havn't seen it in a while. | 09:11 |
| christel | dwatkins: thank you! ;) | 09:12 |
| Myrtti | the main reason why I don't like installing extra software is a habit from when I had Nexus One, it was chronically low on memory so extra apps didn't fit | 09:12 |
| dwatkins | yeah, I had that trouble with the Nexus One also. I do prefer when things work properly out of the box. | 09:13 |
| MartijnVdS | I tend to not install a lot of apps either | 09:13 |
| MartijnVdS | and then my dad complained about his phone being slow... | 09:13 |
| dwatkins | does having a lot of apps slow a phone down, or is it more that they're running (in the background)? | 09:13 |
| MartijnVdS | dwatkins: lots of apps come with crapware that runs in the back and shows ads | 09:14 |
| dwatkins | Presumably there are some which run as a service, like AirDroid, which slow things down. | 09:14 |
| MartijnVdS | and ads = data traffic = battery | 09:14 |
| AlanBell | I think I have a sufficiently high version of libmtp | 09:14 |
| MartijnVdS | AlanBell: 1.1.4 or higher? | 09:15 |
| MartijnVdS | AlanBell: it also needs a git + custom patch version of libgvfs | 09:15 |
| AlanBell | !info libmtp9 | 09:15 |
| lubotu3 | libmtp9 (source: libmtp): Media Transfer Protocol (MTP) library. In component main, is optional. Version 1.1.3-1ubuntu0.1 (precise), package size 130 kB, installed size 359 kB | 09:15 |
| AlanBell | !info libmtp9 quantal | 09:15 |
| lubotu3 | libmtp9 (source: libmtp): Media Transfer Protocol (MTP) library. In component main, is optional. Version 1.1.4-1 (quantal), package size 132 kB, installed size 341 kB | 09:15 |
| AlanBell | I have 1.1.4-1 | 09:15 |
| AlanBell | do I need the patched gvfs for rhythmbox? | 09:16 |
| MartijnVdS | yes | 09:16 |
| AlanBell | grumble grumble should be in quantal grumble | 09:16 |
| MartijnVdS | it's a rewrite of the GVFS mtp subsystem to not do the equivalent of "ls -lR" when a device is mounted | 09:16 |
| MartijnVdS | (but instead just request files as necessary) | 09:16 |
| MartijnVdS | because that's why it hangs/timeouts: it's getting file info on EVERY file and dir on the device | 09:17 |
| MartijnVdS | and maybe even setting up change monitoring on them.. | 09:17 |
| AlanBell | yeah, I ended up using go-mtp and doing rm -rf on the music folder of the device to clear it out so it would sync again | 09:17 |
| AlanBell | which got about a GB of stuff on it, but it seemed only a few tracks of each CD | 09:18 |
| AlanBell | 55 CDs doesn't seem like an unreasonable amount, we probably have 100 or so in total | 09:18 |
| MartijnVdS | it is not | 09:19 |
| AlanBell | so, I compile https://github.com/philipl/gvfs then rhythmbox starts working? | 09:19 |
| MartijnVdS | but as the gvfs code is enumerating EVERY file (music or not) on the device before you can use it | 09:20 |
| MartijnVdS | it should yes | 09:20 |
| MartijnVdS | well | 09:20 |
| AlanBell | cool, I will try that | 09:20 |
| MartijnVdS | compile, install (make sure you can uninstall), etc. | 09:20 |
| AlanBell | yeah, will do | 09:20 |
| AlanBell | then I will try it on my clean SSD | 09:20 |
| Wobbo | Wat is een goed vervanging dan "EOG afbeeldingenweergave". | 09:21 |
| Wobbo | Aangezien nu al maanden lang een bug heeft die niet opgelost wordt. Heb ik een andere nodig. | 09:21 |
| AlanBell | hello Wobbo | 09:23 |
| MartijnVdS | Wobbo: Verkeerde taal :) | 09:23 |
| MartijnVdS | Wobbo: dit is het Engelse kanaal | 09:23 |
| Wobbo | Lol | 09:23 |
| Wobbo | No problem... Sorry. | 09:23 |
| MartijnVdS | Wobbo: which EOG bug is that? | 09:24 |
| Wobbo | That bug is still not fixed. | 09:24 |
| MartijnVdS | Which bug though? | 09:25 |
| MartijnVdS | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eog has the list of reported eog bugs | 09:25 |
| Wobbo | I am using 3x 1080x1920 screens using AMD. | 09:27 |
| * AlanBell dislikes the mystery dependency hunt when compiling things | 09:28 | |
| MartijnVdS | AlanBell: apt-get build-dep libgvfs | 09:29 |
| MartijnVdS | AlanBell: that should get you the basics | 09:29 |
| Wobbo | somehow all jpeg's wil stay color white. | 09:29 |
| AlanBell | MartijnVdS: cool, I found it, was libgcrypt11-dev mostly | 09:29 |
| AlanBell | but it doesn't make | 09:29 |
| MartijnVdS | AlanBell: apt-get source libgvfs, look in debian/rules for the ./configure line | 09:30 |
| AlanBell | http://paste.ubuntu.com/1278651/ | 09:30 |
| Wobbo | PNG's are still working. | 09:30 |
| MartijnVdS | Wobbo: Have you filed a bug report, so people can work on a fix? | 09:30 |
| Wobbo | Where en how? | 09:31 |
| MartijnVdS | Wobbo: from the command line: ubuntu-bug eog | 09:32 |
| MartijnVdS | Wobbo: or look if it has already been reported on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eog and mark yourself as "also affected" | 09:32 |
| AlanBell | /o\ http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=672099 | 09:32 |

| lubotu3 | Ubuntu bug 938751 in eog (Ubuntu Precise) "jpeg images are washed out or colors are skewed " [Low,Confirmed] | 09:33 |
| MartijnVdS | Wobbo: it might be a video driver bug then | 09:33 |
| AlanBell | will try again later, sounds like some tricky merging of stuff will be in order | 09:33 |
| Wobbo | Is there an alternative then eog? | 09:39 |
| brobostigon | good morning everyone. | 09:39 |
| Wobbo | Why cant i install https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eog the latest version: 3.6.0: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+files/eog_3.6.0-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb | 09:49 |
| brobostigon | Wobbo: easiest, might be to add the gnome3-teams ppa, and install from there. | 09:49 |
| Wobbo | ppa:gnome3-teams of ppa:ubuntugnometeam/gnome3 ? | 09:55 |
| brobostigon | deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/gnome3-team/gnome3/ubuntu quantal main | 09:56 |
| Wobbo | All update ar not possible. | 10:02 |
| brobostigon | did you change quantal to the ubuntu version you are running, and added it to your software sources properly? | 10:03 |
| Wobbo | Yes, there are a lot of updates now, but | 10:05 |
| brobostigon | Wobbo: yes, as that repo contains the whole of gnome3, and its apps. | 10:05 |
| brobostigon | Wobbo: just update EOG, then disable the repo again. | 10:06 |
| Wobbo | not all are possible. And after to fix it, it returns that isn’t possible. | 10:06 |
| brobostigon | Wobbo: yes, that is normal, due to some possible package clashes. | 10:07 |
| popey | morning all | 10:08 |
| brobostigon | morning popey | 10:08 |
| Wobbo | Same where updated but there are still a lot left. | 10:14 |
| Wobbo | Those are not selectable. | 10:14 |
| Wobbo | And i do not see anything about EOG 3.6.0 | 10:15 |
| brobostigon | let me check here, it should be in there. | 10:17 |
| * AlanBell fixes gvfs with one & | 10:20 | |
| Wobbo | nope nothing about EOG has an update. | 10:20 |
| Wobbo | If I throw away gnome3-teams I get more problems then be full | 10:22 |
| Wobbo | be full | 10:23 |
| Wobbo | How to get gnome3-teams away again? | 10:24 |
| brobostigon | you are right, the newsest i can see here, is in the quantal main repo. | 10:25 |
| brobostigon | Wobbo: you can just disable the repo, and then apt-get update, to rebuild your package lists. | 10:26 |
| AlanBell | sudo ppa-purge ppa:ubuntugnometeam/gnome3 | 10:26 |
| AlanBell | that is how to undo a PPA | 10:26 |
| brobostigon | thank you AlanBell , i didnt think of that. | 10:27 |
| Wobbo | the only simple thing I need is to see JPEG again | 10:27 |
| AlanBell | Wobbo: got a link to a PDF that doesn't display right? | 10:27 |
| AlanBell | oh, sorry eog, not evince | 10:28 |
| AlanBell | err, what is wrong with it Wobbo? displays jpegs just fine for me on quantal | 10:28 |
| Wobbo | There is a bug for my resolution. | 10:32 |
| Wobbo | I need another software than EOG... | 10:33 |
| Wobbo | So, what is the best other software than EOG. Just to see pictures. | 10:33 |
| Wobbo | nothing more nothing less | 10:34 |
| Wobbo | and I'll just wait until it's fixed | 10:35 |
| Wobbo | but until that time I need any other software to do it | 10:36 |

| andyc | DJones, I dont know for certain but I'd say the balloon will burst and the capsule will drop down with a parachute | 14:55 |

| bootljhfdsds | **rightmove.co.uk i think ?? | 15:27 |
| jacobw | i just spend a few minutes at google trying to spell carlisle | 15:27 |
| bootljhfdsds | anyway, we're looking to indulge in plenty of cakes .. Anyone know of any new one's .. We've only a Tesco here. | 15:29 |
| bootljhfdsds | ** ?? | 15:30 |
| bootljhfdsds | Well anyway .. I saw they do a hardcore line in cupcakes these days .. so that is the default. | 15:31 |
| bootljhfdsds | :) | 15:33 |
| jacobw | sounds good | 15:35 |
| SuperEngineer | BBC 24 news now... Roswell sky dive live [Baumgartner is currently climbing] | 15:36 |
| penguin42 | SuperEngineer: http://www.redbullstratos.com/live/ | 15:38 |
| SuperEngineer | cheers penguin42 | 15:38 |
| penguin42 | still looks like he's got quite a way to go up first | 15:38 |
| SuperEngineer | 2 hours clim yet | 15:39 |
| SuperEngineer | *climb | 15:39 |
| Pendulum | DJones: the online feed just answered your recovery question | 15:40 |
| bootljhfdsds | yes I did see that a while ago on youtube .. 2 hours climb .. still better than The Z Factor. | 15:41 |
| SuperEngineer | seems so sad to see Endevour with it's windows blocked out, crawling through L.A. whilst 1 single man flies up in a ballon | 15:42 |
| MartijnVdS | SuperEngineer: it's the American way | 15:42 |
| SuperEngineer | ...loke the blindfold of a man against a firing squad :( | 15:42 |
| bootljhfdsds | I think they had a close miss going thru LA according to Yahoo news. | 15:42 |
| penguin42 | there was a great LA picture somewhere taken from behind some houses where you can see some kids playing basketball and peeping through a gap in the houses you can see the shuttle going past | 15:43 |
| SuperEngineer | bootljhfdsds: I think it safe to assume an emergeny stop didn't take same distance as a car does! | 15:44 |
| MartijnVdS | SuperEngineer: not a drive-by shooting? | 15:44 |
| bootljhfdsds | true. | 15:44 |
| andyc | Does anyone every experience tab flickering when using a maximised chromium window? | 15:44 |
| SuperEngineer | MartijnVdS: very apt ;) | 15:44 |
| penguin42 | bootljhfdsds: https://plus.google.com/photos/+GuyKawasaki/albums/5798978099058303329/5798978100863669698 (shuttle) | 15:44 |
| andyc | This is in unity in 12.10 beta with all updates installed | 15:45 |
| MartijnVdS | penguin42: WHY would basketball be cooler than a space shuttle going by your house?! | 15:45 |
| penguin42 | MartijnVdS: No, I don't get it either, but it's a great shot | 15:45 |
| MartijnVdS | it is | 15:45 |
| SuperEngineer | latest news .... space shuttlew drops the blindfold, sees kids playing basketball & flips a wing to knock them over... "oi! I'm over hear" Endevour shouts | 15:47 |
| SuperEngineer | ...then cops put blindfold back on shuttle, & make Endevour continue it's death march | 15:49 |
| * bigcalm returns from yet another wedding fair | 15:54 | |
| bigcalm | Getting married is such an ordeal | 15:54 |
| MartijnVdS | bigcalm: your own, or someone else's? :) | 15:56 |
| bigcalm | My own wedding, this sort of time next year | 15:56 |
| penguin42 | bigcalm: so you don't fancy a nice simple one and a quick snack from the local takeaway; a lot easier? | 15:59 |
| bigcalm | :S | 16:03 |
| SuperEngineer | yea gads! you go a quick bath whilst Baumgartner's climbing... & what happens... flash crashes & takes t'internet conxn with it. Not impressed. | 16:47 |
| jacobw | how would flash crashing take the network stack with it? | 16:57 |
| n1_ | hi. anyone using vodafone dongle to connect? how can i check if it is in usb or network mode (as usb modeswitch alread y comes preinstalled)? | 16:59 |
| SuperEngineer | jacobw: it seems it was other way round, t'internet conxn failed, so flash called it a crash... | 16:59 |
| * MartijnVdS goes to poke at his internet connection | 17:00 | |
| SuperEngineer | me just - still... silly flash for recognising something I didn't recognise instantly either ;) | 17:00 |
| MartijnVdS | I really really hope those fibre people come next month | 17:07 |
| MartijnVdS | DSL just dropped another 2 mbtis | 17:07 |
| MartijnVdS | mbits | 17:07 |
| * SuperEngineer blames solar maximum... broadband been droppng & now 3 mobile [normally reliable fast fallback] keeps dropping | 17:10 | |
| MartijnVdS | SuperEngineer: nah, I blame my coworkers :) | 17:10 |
| SuperEngineer | MartijnVdS: lol | 17:10 |
| MartijnVdS | SuperEngineer: I work at my ISP.. I've checked the systems, they put a new "profile" on the line, one that lowers the speed more agressively | 17:11 |
| MartijnVdS | (so bad lines are more stable) | 17:11 |
| SuperEngineer | MartijnVdS: hmmmmmmm | 17:11 |
| * SuperEngineer wonders if Baumgartner proves a human can safely break sound barrier SuperEngineer can argue that UK m'way speed limit *is* too low | 17:17 | |
| SuperEngineer | [which - in case- is a *very* variable spped limit] ;) | 17:17 |
| SuperEngineer | *speed | 17:18 |
| penguin42 | that page is starting to get jittery for me | 17:22 |
| * SuperEngineer wonders if apple are using the live redbullstratos feed to improve their mapping | 17:23 | |
| MartijnVdS | SuperEngineer: no, just to make it worse | 17:25 |
| popey | no video here | 17:26 |
| MartijnVdS | SuperEngineer: "In 3 miles, go up into the stratosphere" | 17:26 |
| SuperEngineer | MartijnVdS: :D | 17:26 |
| SuperEngineer | MartijnVdS: "please enter your desired destination"... please .... no! | 17:27 |
| SuperEngineer | popey: you trying to waTCH redbullstratos? | 17:29 |
| popey | ya | 17:29 |
| SuperEngineer | it is getting close to point of max height - could be a case of site full... refresh? | 17:29 |
| SuperEngineer | popey: failing success... try beeb or sky, they keep cutting back to it when relevant | 17:31 |
| popey | live stream on bbc website works fine | 17:31 |
| SuperEngineer | cool | 17:32 |
| penguin42 | SuperEngineer: Hmm I wonder whether there is actually a bug with a long running live stream; quitting/restarting mine has helped | 17:32 |
| SuperEngineer | penguin42: ditto | 17:32 |
| SuperEngineer | [bet it stalls just when he jumps] | 17:32 |
| popey | bah, need to put kids to bed | 17:34 |
| SuperEngineer | yea gads! he's nearly as high as I got in my youth schmoking things not necessarily sold by tobacco companies! ;) | 17:35 |
| SuperEngineer | popey: would you have sent them bed during 1st moon landing? force them to stay away | 17:36 |
| SuperEngineer | from bed | 17:37 |
| * SuperEngineer just realised... he's still not as high as a certain person at Canonical went! | 17:38 | |
| popey | phew! | 17:41 |
| penguin42 | SuperEngineer: Well, I guess that's your canonical height reference | 17:41 |
| DJones | SuperEngineer: Yeah, but since one of Pans people is going that high........ What does that say | 17:51 |
| SuperEngineer | DJones: hmmmmmm | 17:53 |
| * SuperEngineer liked 1 of Pan's peeps quite a lot | 17:53 | |
| DJones | I wonder if Baumgartner packed his own parachute? | 18:00 |
| SuperEngineer | DJones: ooo... don't say that! I've suffered that fate once myself! | 18:04 |
| SuperEngineer | ["oh drat, oh darn" I recall saying as a candle appeared my head!] | 18:05 |
| SuperEngineer | go Felix go! & may the Gods speed you safely | 18:07 |
| Pendulum | I wonder if his mother was actually able to watch the first part of that fall. | 18:08 |
| SuperEngineer | 690mph! | 18:09 |
| DJones | The first part of the fall was probably the easiest, I'd be more worried about the last few feet | 18:18 |
| Pendulum | Yeah, but visually is the part that visually looks the worst (at least in my opinion) | 18:22 |
| Pendulum | because of the rolling | 18:22 |
| DJones | I wouldn't mind the 130,000 ft fall, just the sudden stop at the end could be annoying | 18:24 |
| zleap | http://www.redbullstratos.com/live/ | 18:25 |
| SuperEngineer | comment from Queen_UK on twitter: "Try parachuting into an Olympic Opening Ceremony, moonbeam." ;) | 18:31 |
| Azelphur | xD | 18:37 |
| popey | gord, mSATA SSD arrives tomorrow, I'll let you know how it goes :) | 18:38 |
| popey | have to take the keyboard off to get to it | 18:39 |
