Beardmancer | Does anybody have any leads on what version of fglrx I should install and how? | 01:42 |
---|---|---|
Beardmancer | To clarify, I had to nuke my system and reinstall the last time I installed fglrx, and the version available in the repositories appears to be terrible. Not sure what I should do to get Catalyst working on Ubuntu Gnome Remix 12.10 | 01:45 |
Beardmancer | <crickets> | 01:48 |
britt_ | hey guys | 07:02 |
britt_ | nice work on todays updates | 07:02 |
darkxst | Beardmancer, you should never need to reinstall after failed driver installation | 08:09 |
darkxst | you can always fallback to vesa driver, either through recovery mode (From boot menu) or manually with xorg.conf | 08:09 |
darkxst | ricotz, are there plans to backport g-c-c 3.6 to Q or will it just remain in the gnome3 ppa? | 10:34 |
ricotz | darkxst, this won't happen, so it will be ppa only | 10:56 |
thesadmafioso | hello | 13:45 |
britt_ | Hey guys, I have noticed something odd with Gnome-Shell | 17:42 |
britt_ | and I do not know if it was a change in gnome 3.6 or a regression | 17:43 |
britt_ | Gnome-Shell used to open up a web browser and take your URL if you typed in a URL into the search box, but it is no longer doing such a function | 17:44 |
jbicha | ah, the Google & Wikipedia buttons were removed | 17:45 |
jbicha | so that's sort of a regression but I don't know if the devs and designers are sure about how to add that back in | 17:46 |
britt_ | were they removed by the gnome devs or ubuntu devs? | 17:46 |
jbicha | apps like Nautilus, Contacts, Documents can ship their own GNOME Shell search providers so it sounds like you just need someone to write a generic web search provider | 17:46 |
britt_ | hrm | 17:47 |
jbicha | by gnome; Ubuntu doesn't really patch GNOME Shell, at least not more than Debian does | 17:47 |
britt_ | I see. It is weird that Gnome 3.4 had that feature working beautifully. It was very similar to the Unity search bar in that sense | 17:48 |
jbicha | https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/512/wikipedia-search-provider/ (you have to prefix you search with w though) | 17:49 |
britt_ | very nice, thanks for looking for me | 17:50 |
jbicha | the Google & Wikipedia buttons weren't that great of a design | 17:52 |
jbicha | the idea's good; it's just a matter of making it fit well with the rest of the system | 17:53 |
britt_ | yeah. I wouldn't mind if it worked much like the Unity launcher | 17:55 |
darkxst | jbicha, can you upload this to raring -> https://code.launchpad.net/~darkxst/ppa-purge/multiarch-lp892886/+merge/134576? | 21:16 |
darkxst | jbicha, can you assign this bug again quantal (its already fixed in raring) https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/1046118 | 22:37 |
Beardmancer | darkxst, sorry, I left my computer yesterday and just got back to it. I would tend to agree with you. There were probably other issues with my old install, as recovery did not work. If I were not such a novice, I'm sure it could have been easily revived. | 23:31 |
Beardmancer | At any rate, I wanted to try UGR anyhow, so here I am. :) Is installing fglrx via the repositories the suggested method, then, despite cold reviews from 12.10 users? | 23:32 |
