[02:51] <kirk601> i recently did a clean install of 12.10, updated to 13.04 and installed GDM and lightdm and i'm having some odd prolems with programs clsoing on their own. can someone help me troubleshoot?
[02:52] <kirk601> even the 'ubuntu 12.10 has encountered an internal error' program crashes
[02:52] <kirk601> certain programs liket he software center only opens for a few seconds then quickly closes with no error message, when i switch back to the deafult window manager however the problems seem to stop
[02:53] <kirk601> thanks in advance :)

[09:05] <Kurdistan> Hi I really hope the idea of rolling release and LTS will be reality. Rolling release that support last point release of every libreoffice would be best instead of supporting every LO release. For beginning of every new LO it is a bit buggy. It shapes well in the last point release of a release.
[09:07] <ikonia> Kurdistan: why are you posting it in here too
[11:00] <krux> Software Center the menu is blank i see no categories at all.. it does not matter to me because i don't use the software center but just wanted to let you guys know..does this happen to anybody else ?..
[13:32] <mibofra> hi
[13:34] <mibofra> when I use something needs mesa (like compiz for unity), after 2/3 hours if I open another program or window (ex. an indicator) I see al this things as a black window and nothing else
[13:35] <mibofra> the error it's that (with compiz, but it's the same with all programs need gl rendering) : compiz: ../../../../../src/mesa/swrast/s_renderbuffer.c:588: map_attachment: asserzione "srb->Map" non riuscita.
[13:36] <mibofra> it's Italian 'cos the default language on my installation of ubutntu is Italian
[13:39] <mibofra> and, now I don't use the ppa of xorg-edgers
[13:48] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[13:48] <humanoids> fascinating, does it run on grillo or berlusconi?
[13:53] <Tribaal> hi all
[13:55] <mibofra> humanoids, sure on one of them XD. Now I've to try a strange thing and maybe I'll solve the problem
[13:55] <myk_robinson> morning, all
[13:56] <myk_robinson> Anyone been able to successfully create a bootable usb stick with 13.04?
[13:57] <humanoids> yes
[13:58] <myk_robinson> little help.. Keeps failing for me using the startup disk creator. Is there a better way to do this from command line?
[14:00] <humanoids> i don't know i used some mac tool
[14:01] <myk_robinson> ahhhh.. I have it installed on my laptop (from DVD) but want to make a bootable. I use live linux for diagnostics all the time. Guess I can make it from windows.. Sad that the built in too is not working..
[19:07] <IdleOne> How do I make firefox know what to do with apt:// links?
[19:08] <jtaylor> probably how everything is solved in firefox, install a plugin
[19:10] <IdleOne> yeah, I don't see anything relevant in my searches :/
[19:11] <jtaylor> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptURL
[19:12] <IdleOne> reading, thank you
[19:13] <IdleOne> wonder why I didn't already have apturl installed
[19:15] <mandoguit> fwiw, not installed here either    Kernel: 3.8.0-8-generic x86_64 (64 bit)  Desktop: KDE 4.10.00 Distro: Ubuntu Raring Ringtail
[19:17] <BluesKaj> guess it's not a default apt package on 13.04 and won't be til official release
[19:18] <yofel> muon/qapt was supposed to handle those. But I think jt didn't yet finish that
[19:20] <IdleOne> I see, I keep getting no app associated with apt urls but muon is selected in my prefs
[19:20] <IdleOne> I can no longer play one of my favorite online games now because of flash :/
[19:22] <BluesKaj> IdleOne, which game ?
[19:22] <IdleOne> Bingo on facebook
[19:23] <IdleOne> well, 1 of the millions of bingo games they have.
[19:23] <BluesKaj> reinstall flash ..some ppl who are having flash probs lately have resolved it a reinstall
[19:24] <BluesKaj> with a reinstall , that is
[19:24] <IdleOne> I tried that too
[19:24] <IdleOne> no love
[19:32] <BluesKaj> well , one thing I tried that worked here was downloading the the latest adobe flashplayer and adding the libflashplayer.so file to /usr/lib/mozilla/plgins
[19:41] <BluesKaj> one thing too , i removed the alternativeflash from the mozilla plugins as well and using the libflashplyer.so file in it's place
[19:42] <BluesKaj> we just had an internet hiccup here , that's the second one in as many days
[19:42] <IdleOne> I'll give that a shot
[19:43] <BluesKaj> I see the Bell tech working on a pole up the road
[19:45] <IdleOne> hah, expect downtime
[19:45] <IdleOne> they always break something
[19:49] <bjsnider> BluesKaj, that manual downloading of flash was not necessary. all of that ids done by the flash package
[19:50] <bjsnider> furthermore, it may have damaged flash for other browsers
[19:50] <bjsnider> the flash package installs the plugin to a neutral location and sets up alternatives (links) for all browsers
[19:51] <bjsnider> manually downloading is just,a t best, redundant
[19:53] <BluesKaj> bjsnider, I haven't had any problems wit that method and I use up to 3 different browsers at times ...that methos was a fix for flash when it wasn't working well 64 bit installs and I've used it ever since
[19:54] <bjsnider> well, if you prefer doing all that extra work, more power to you
[19:56] <BluesKaj> well , copying a file from an extracted file to a dir really isn't much work ...that alternative flash plugin isn't working on some setups
[19:59] <bjsnider> what do you mean by "alternative"?
[20:02] <bjsnider> i was talking about this package: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+package/adobe-flashplugin
[20:03] <bjsnider> it isn't in raring yet, but the quantal version will work fine
[23:41] <qengho> I anyone else having trouble with pulseaudio?  Does "mplayer" work now that you have pulseaudio 3.0... installed?
