| magn3ts | schweet. I was having issues with that yesterday, it broke cinnamon-settings | 00:04 |
|---|---|---|
| magn3ts | Also, can anyone help me debug this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1120938 | 00:04 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 1120938 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "Ubiquity hangs after the initial summary screen" [Undecided,New] | 00:04 |
| penguin42 | nothing in the log looks particularly evil; some -ve height widgets that don't look sane; and some moans over '10 partman-target/arch_help/unknown/generic doesn't exist' | 00:08 |
| magn3ts | penguin42: any other way to tell what it's doing while it's chillaxing without gdb or something more hands on? | 00:09 |
| penguin42 | magn3ts: I don't know much about the innards of ubiquity to answer that I'm afraid | 00:10 |
| magn3ts | penguin42: alright, well, I'll take a screwdriver to it tonight and report on the bug, thanks for looking | 00:10 |
| ad5300 | hi, on a fresh install my system is using gallium llvmpipe instead of the intel driver for sandybridge. unity alone eats up a good 40% of my cpu. Is there any way to fix this? | 03:23 |
| bjsnider | ad5300, what is the output of glxinfo? | 03:25 |
| ad5300 | let me pastebin that for you | 03:25 |
| bjsnider | you'll have to install mesa-utils if you haven't | 03:25 |
| ad5300 | http://pastebin.com/HpyLUWM4 | 03:26 |
| bjsnider | what the bleep | 03:27 |
| bjsnider | have you got an /etc/X11/xorg.conf? | 03:27 |
| ad5300 | I've been using Ubuntu since Edgy, and I decided to wipe my perfectly working quantal install (backing up /home) to try out raring from a fresh install. It turns out that raring is not working well on my IdeaPad Y570. | 03:28 |
| ad5300 | ~$ cat /etx/X11/xorg.conf cat: /etx/X11/xorg.conf: No such file or directory | 03:28 |
| bjsnider | is this hybrid graphics or something? | 03:28 |
| ad5300 | umm... no. | 03:28 |
| bjsnider | well, you could look at two logs | 03:29 |
| bjsnider | dmesg | 03:29 |
| ad5300 | It's an optimus laptop, but it (should) use that Intel by default like it did in Quantal | 03:29 |
| bjsnider | so it is hybrid | 03:29 |
| bjsnider | optimus is nvidia | 03:29 |
| bjsnider | check /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 03:29 |
| ad5300 | Yes, and it also has a Sandy Bridge on-board graphics chip | 03:30 |
| bjsnider | that will tell you what's being loaded and possibly why | 03:30 |
| bjsnider | can you turn the nvidia chip off in the bios? | 03:30 |
| ad5300 | I don't think that is possible. The BIOS on this thing is incredibly crippled :/ basically just time and date | 03:31 |
| bjsnider | ok, pastebin those logs | 03:31 |
| ad5300 | http://pastebin.com/YuXw6q4U | 03:32 |
| ad5300 | This is a 100% fresh install from the 2/10/13 daily build. I didn't even restore /home from my external yet. | 03:33 |
| ad5300 | new partition and everything | 03:33 |
| bjsnider | you're booting a recovery/nomodeset kernel | 03:39 |
| bjsnider | Kernel command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.8.0-5-generic root=UUID=eefaa976-7341-4b2b-98b3-50680ecd14e2 ro recovery nomodeset | 03:39 |
| bjsnider | boot the normal kernel | 03:39 |
| ad5300 | That's odd, I don't remember selecting that option. How do you change that boot line? I don't suppose you can just edit grub.conf anymore... | 03:41 |
| bjsnider | if that's how you got this far, you'll have to get a log from an older boot | 03:41 |
| ad5300 | I'll try a reboot... | 03:42 |
| bjsnider | hold shift | 03:44 |
| bjsnider | after the bios screen hold shift until you see the grub screen | 03:44 |
| ad5300_ | Rebooting without recovery lead me to a "your system is running in low graphics mode" screen | 03:47 |
| ad5300_ | I am typing this from my desktop | 03:47 |
| ad5300_ | After choosing to remain in low graphics for one session, it failed to boot into a graphical environment. | 03:48 |
| bjsnider | ok, well we need the boot logs | 03:49 |
| ad5300_ | the output of dmesg...? | 03:49 |
| bjsnider | and the xorg.0.log | 03:50 |
| ad5300_ | let's see what I can do for you without a working desktop environment. I guess I could install ssh on the laptop and pull the files off of it | 03:52 |
| ad5300_ | http://pastebin.com/XLup2Ara | 03:55 |
| ad5300_ | http://pastebin.com/V3UutatW | 03:55 |
| ad5300_ | tedious but it works :/ | 03:55 |
| ad5300_ | I just installed the openssh-server package and used cat + copy and paste to get those logs | 03:57 |
| bjsnider | that being an optimus setup you might need a xorg.conf. did you have one before the wipe/reload? | 04:04 |
| bjsnider | ad5300_, try adding a basic xorg.conf that tells it to use intel as the driver. you can find lots of examples using google | 04:13 |
| bjsnider | also, it would be better to go to #ubuntu-x, although they're all sleeping right now. might be better to wait 6-8 hours | 04:18 |
| ad5300_ | bjsnider: I used the default configuration in quantal, which worked perfectly | 04:22 |
| ad5300_ | I used optirun/primusrun to utilize the gtx 550 on it | 04:23 |
| ad5300_ | Might as well go back to quantal. At least that worked. I was really hoping to play with raring on a 'bare metal' installation | 04:24 |
| ad5300_ | That's odd, I managed to get it to boot into a graphical environment, and Mesa is reporting it's OpenGL 3.0 using SandyBridge, but it's not loading unity. I was able to get a terminal using the keyboard shortcut. | 04:29 |
| ad5300_ | I know it's an alpha/dev releast, but it really bothers me when I can't figure out how to fix simple stuff like this, I feel that I should be able to | 04:30 |
| bjsnider | that glxinfo report sounds correct | 04:37 |
| bjsnider | ad5300_, you can check .xsession-errors for possible explanations of the unity issue | 04:38 |
| rigo | hi i have a special problem... | 07:38 |
| rigo | it is hard to describe, but maybe its a known problem, and easy to solve. | 07:39 |
| rigo | i have a htpc with server mini installation, an xbmc and an lxde on it. if i connect to the pc with ssh sometimes it "hangs" so i have to wait 1-100sec to see whats happenning on putty or on the vnc remote desktop | 07:41 |
| rigo | if i have network activity it happens often. | 07:41 |
| rigo | i dont think its a timeout issue, cause i already tried to ping everything from everywhere constatnly | 07:42 |
| rigo | if i restart putty / vnc the hang dissappears immediately. but if i dont restart the apps, i have to wait. and its annoying. the pc answers to ping meanwhile the hang | 07:43 |
| rigo | if i restart the sshd on the htpc the hang is also gone. | 07:45 |

| setre | any guess on how far from 13.04 being released? | 11:57 |
| bekks | year 13 month 04 ... | 11:58 |
| setre | How can I toggle the the launcher in current 13.04? | 12:03 |
| setre | Do I need to reroute power to the shields? | 12:03 |
| Tribaal | setre: you can try rerouting power from the shields, but make sure your engineering deck is prepared to handle the pressure if you're within range of enemy blasters | 12:09 |
| Tribaal | setre: seriously though - you can find launcher options in the "appearance" menu - just type appearance in the dash and switch to that application's "behavior" tab. | 12:10 |
| setre | Tribaal: I fucking told Scotty to do it last week but he was busy with Romulan ale | 12:11 |
| setre | Tribaal: hmm thanks. | 12:11 |
| Tribaal | setre: what a slacker! | 12:11 |
| Tribaal | setre: hehe np | 12:11 |
| setre | now to find my localized version | 12:13 |
| setre | Tribaal: if it's supposed to be in system preferences, that currently only shows "background" as an option to configure | 12:15 |
| setre | on my version | 12:15 |
| Tribaal | setre: there should be a "behavior" tab in there | 12:15 |
| Tribaal | setre: are you sure you're on 13.04? | 12:16 |
| setre | that's what it says | 12:17 |
| setre | perhaps it's the translation that isn't done | 12:17 |
| Tribaal | perhaps | 12:19 |
| setre | is there perchance a non-ui way to edit unity config? | 12:19 |
| Tribaal | setre: so if you run "gnome-control-center unity-appearance" that does not have a "behavior" tab? | 12:19 |
| setre | Tribaal: that opened something that is totally not accessible via system preferences. Yeah I can configure it from there. Thanks | 12:21 |
| setre | Is it possible to set a keyboard shortcut for showing/hiding the launcher? | 12:21 |
| Tribaal | setre: it's the "Appearance" application | 12:21 |
| Tribaal | setre: I don't know - but hitting "super" will work (although it will open the dash too) | 12:22 |
| setre | "appearance" (or my local equivalent) is not available from system settings | 12:22 |
| Tribaal | setre: hum | 12:22 |
| setre | hmm "super"? | 12:22 |
| Tribaal | setre: "windows" | 12:23 |
| setre | ah | 12:23 |
| setre | that disgraceful button | 12:23 |
| Tribaal | setre: I suggest putting a Ubuntu sticker on it instead | 12:24 |
| setre | yeah, or a GNU | 12:25 |
| setre | what's up with the Amazon promotion stuff anyway. Offputting I found it to be honest. | 12:25 |
| setre | auto hiding does not actually seem to be working, at least not without a restart | 12:27 |
| setre | also, I found that unity crashes if I restart the network service. That can't be right, right. | 12:28 |

| fm | how can i get further with https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1116587 ? | 18:09 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 1116587 in xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) "Lenovo T400: With external monitor the system is rarely working for more than 10 minutes" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 18:09 |
| fm | it is a regression from 12.10 | 18:09 |
| * penguin42 looks | 18:13 | |
| penguin42 | fm: When it hangs will it let you do a ctrl-alt-f1 to get a console? | 18:14 |
| fm | penguin42, yes | 18:15 |
| fm | the mouse usually even adapts to the background. i.e. i get a hand on links. even though i cannot click anything. | 18:15 |
| penguin42 | fm: Hmm, so you say nothing in /var/log/xorg.0.log, anything in dmesg? | 18:15 |
| fm | and i can move the mouse without a problem | 18:15 |
| fm | dmesg empty as well penguin42 | 18:16 |
| fm | happens with the guest account and my private one | 18:16 |
| penguin42 | hmph | 18:16 |
| penguin42 | you might try asking in #ubuntu-x - it would be easier if something actually decided to crash! | 18:16 |
| fm | penguin42, yeah no crash | 18:18 |

| dupondje | Oh my god, every version of Ubuntu seems to give me less options to configure things :( | 23:05 |
| dupondje | system-config-printer works perfect, but no, there is some automatic thing added in gnome control panel, that does NOTHING :( | 23:07 |
| dupondje | *sad* | 23:07 |
