gmg85is it true that 13.04 will have the alx ethernet driver in its kernel?12:49
patdk-wkgmg85, that would have been stabilised a long time ago12:53
gmg85patdk-wk, when i installed xubuntu  12.10....i had to download the alx ethernet driver from compact wireless and compile it myself]12:55
gmg85was wondering whether 13.04 will come with the ethernet driver so i dont have to compile the source12:56
patdk-wkhow is that relevent?12:56
patdk-wkwell, what kernel is it included in?12:56
gmg8503:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR8162 Fast Ethernet (rev 08)12:56

johnflux__patdk-wk: how?13:01
patdk-wkgmg85, well, as the alx driver is not in the linux kernel, it won't be13:03
johnflux__usr13: usr13: googling, it seems that actually you have to install vim-gtk   if you want the vim console version to have clipboard support13:03
johnflux__I found https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vim/+bug/83788213:03

patdk-wkit's in the compat-wireless package though13:05
patdk-wknot sure what version it was included in though13:05

jmnozfor some reason my keyboard shortcuts in xfce doesn't always seem to work properly (running under Ubuntu) any idea of how to troubleshoot?14:07
SonikkuAmericaApparently VBox isn't supposed to be launched from Unity in Raring...?14:08
SonikkuAmericaIt doesn't appear in the launcher but I can open it from the terminal with no problems.14:09
wilee-nileeSonikkuAmerica, Launches from icon here, do you have the latest?14:09
SonikkuAmericaGive me a second (or 2-3 minutes anyway...)14:10
wilee-nileeI don't use unity however14:10
SonikkuAmericaThe latest what?14:10
tyrogHello. Do you think Ubuntu 13.04 is a worthy upgrade from 12.04 lts?14:12
SonikkuAmericaDepends.14:13
tyrogSonikkuAmerica: more specifically on what? xD14:14
SonikkuAmericatyrog: Do you need a stable (production, e.g.) environment?14:15
tyrogSonikkuAmerica: not at all. Can live with some randomness xD14:16
SonikkuAmericaThen you're welcome to; it's not required for another 9 months for 12.10 or until April 2017 for 12.04.14:17
SonikkuAmericaIn fact, due to the support period being shortened, you don't have to upgrade to 13.04 at all! :)\14:20
SonikkuAmerica*:)14:20
SonikkuAmericawilee-nilee: I have the latest updates and everything if that's what you mean...14:21
Rompoyanyone knows why Ubuntu consumes double power watts than Windows?14:22
tyrogSonikkuAmerica: we can always upgrade to 13.10 when it's released, or up to 3 months after xD14:22
SonikkuAmericatyrog: The thing is... between January and April 2014, only 10.04 LTS Server, 12.04 LTS, 12.10 and 13.10 will be supported.14:23
wilee-nileeSonikkuAmerica, When I installed the latest release from their website I had to purge the previous to install, check your version against the oracle website. https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads14:24
wilee-nileenot sure if the ubnutu repos version is the latest14:24
SonikkuAmericawilee-nilee: Oh. I see. I just tacked the PPA on and installed it fresh. My sources.list entry is "raring contrib"14:25
SonikkuAmericaIt could be that the PPA itself is still incomplete.14:25
tyrogSonikkuAmerica: what do you think is the most reliable upgrade path? lts to lts? or interim to interim?14:25
SonikkuAmericatyrog: I would say LTS > LTS, as they are the most stable.14:26
SonikkuAmericaI've burned a hard copy of every LTS since 10.04 (only 2 of course, but Canonical didn't catch on till now).14:26
tyrogSonikkuAmerica: do you have a dual boot LTS and current?14:27
SonikkuAmericaNo. I just use the current. I'm VBoxing Xubuntu LTS and Lubuntu daily.14:27
wilee-nileeVirtualBox 4.2.12?14:28
tyrogSonikkuAmerica: do you make fresh install of each new ubuntu release?14:28
SonikkuAmericawilee-nilee: Yep14:29
SonikkuAmericatyrog: No, I [ do-release-upgrade ], like Debian.14:29
tyrogNever had problems with upgrades?14:30
SonikkuAmericatyrog: The only problems I've had were the graphical version crashing.14:30
tyrogWhat DE do you use? And have PPAs enabled?14:30
SonikkuAmericaUnity... and tons.14:31
wilee-nileeSonikkuAmerica, I had found the unity desktop problematic in general a while back I like it it was just loosing controls at times, probably fixed now, however have you logged out or rebooted to see if this fixes the problem?14:31
SonikkuAmericawilee-nilee: I never did, maybe that's key.14:32
tyrogActually I like Unity in 13.04. It's a DE that grows with you with time, and with practice14:32
BluesKajyup, do-release-upgrade here as well , keeping the system clean with autremove and autoclean after every package upgrade seems to work for this setup.14:32
wilee-nileeI like the gnome-shell you can reload it with alt-f2-r the unity desktop used to be able to reload compiz easily as well.14:34
tyrogwilee-nilee: Actually the concepts in both are similar xD. But I think Unity handles the menus of the software (File, Edit, etc.) better14:36
tyrogWith more space for the open program14:36
wilee-nileetyrog, Not really, the shell is mutter unity is compiz.14:37
tyrogwilee-nilee: compiz allows for more effects and such14:38
SonikkuAmericaAaaaaaaaaand now I can't search my apps anymore... it's forever searching...14:39
SonikkuAmericaAll the other scopes work just fine.14:39
SonikkuAmericaLet me try again.14:40
wilee-nileetyrog, Sure to some extent, but you used to be able to run compiz --replace and one other command I forget to reload it and or set it to a default install.14:41
* BluesKaj doesn't miss compiz ...kwin does the job just fine14:46
wilee-nileeI never like kubuntu, but that is a personal thing, lol14:47
BluesKajwell, i never liked gnome , it's a matter of taste , mostly i think14:48
BluesKajunity even less14:48
LukeLcinnamon is worth a try14:50
tyrogKDE is ok. I feel it is a bit bloated though14:54
BluesKajtyrog, perhaps because there so many options , thewre are some apps I would like to be excluded that are dependency ridden and can't be removed , only disabled14:57
tyrogBluesKaj: Yep. KDE is not only plasma. But I have to admit it is very stable with 4.1014:58
BluesKajtyrog, yeah seems to be so far14:59
derbarbsuccesfully backup up /etc/vim to ubuntu one but cannot backup my home directory, got a bad request error, anyone know why this might be?14:59
BluesKajderbarb, maybe the ppl at #ubuntuone can help15:02
tyrogwilee-nilee: I was a bit skeptical with KDE too mainly with the first 4.x releases but now I'm using it and is very enjoyable15:25
tyrogMultitasking is fast and you get all the blinks only a KDE desktop can give you xD15:25
tyrogBluesKaj: How do I disable KWin when a fullscreen app is running?15:30
tyroglike compiz does with unity15:30
BluesKajtyrog, don'y know , never needed to15:33
LukeLit's in the settings somewhere, keep diggin :P15:33
LukeLi remember setting it15:33
pieroIs fglrx hdmi audio working on 3.8 kernel for HD series 6000?15:33
BluesKajtyrog, system settings>desktop effects >advanced, suspend desktop effects....15:35
BluesKajfor full screen15:35
tyrogBluesKaj: foud it :) Thanks. As for que Qt graphical system, do you use Raster or Native?15:37
tyrogKDE is using less RAM than Unity with about the same workload, with many desktop effects enabled. Awesome15:39
BluesKajtyrog, I'm using raster , but just for testing , supposedly it works with Qt  better than native15:40
BluesKajtyrog, it's difficult to tell the differnce so far15:41

SuperLaguname just reports 3.8.0 as the kernel, but it's actually 3.8.something else, right? How can you find out which kernel you're really running?18:19
genii-aroundSuperLag: no, it should say something like:  3.8.0-19-generic   or such18:24

bjsniderif you grab the quantal version?21:22
tyrog13.04 is a great release. Really improved from 12.10 in many aspects21:22
bjsniderdepends on your point of view21:23
tyrogbjsnider: Of course. What is yours?21:24
bjsnideri've been using gnome 3.6 for 6 months, so there's no difference if i upgrade21:25
bjsnideruntil logind gets added to the gnome 3 ppa and it makes sense to upgrade for gnome 3.821:25
bjsnideri don't use this on a phone, so i don't need to use unity21:25
bjsniderunity isn't targeted at me i suppose is the right way to say it21:25
tyrogRight. But I feel for Unity users this is the best one yet. And it has also improved in boot and shutdown time21:26
tyrogbjsnider: That's funny considering you use gnome 3.6 (suppose it is the shell) xD21:26
bjsnideri don't think gnome-shell was specifically designed for phones, but unity started out under another name as a mobile os21:30
tyrogbjsnider: You don't think gnome-shell was designed for mobile devices? So for what?21:31
tyrogNot criticizing, I like to know the desktops and play with them all to see which one suits me better21:31
tyrogYou can make gnome shell very desktop-like, and very functional, but I think it was based around mobile devices.21:32
bjsniderfor computers in general21:32
tyrogEhmm, no. My productivity drops significantly if I don't install some extensions in gnome shell, compared to what gnome 2 was21:33
bjsnidermine doesn't21:33
tyrogDo you think that taking features away from most software is a desktop approach?21:34
tyrogPutting big buttons in the GUIs too?21:35
natmanWhen is Kubuntu 13.04 released?21:36
bazhangsoon21:37
wilee-nileenatman, You can install raring ubuntu and add kubuntu.21:37
tyrogwilee-nilee: Ubuntu 13.04 hasnt been released too, so there is no difference xD21:37
bazhangwilee-nilee, thats not needed at all21:38

bazhangwilee-nilee, its not good advice.21:39

wilee-nileenatman, I did not say you should just giving you an option, you should do what you want. ;)21:41
tyrognatman: I tried both daily ISOs of Ubuntu and Kubuntu today. If you want to use KDE, stick to Kubuntu, as you will avoid the GTK apps within kubuntu that you won't use probably21:42

natmanby the way, thinking of changing to a sony vaio laptop, any idea if they are *buntu friendly?21:44
tyrogbazhang: Probably final by now. Final ISOs are prepared some days before the final release, so you might be already further from final21:44
bazhangtyrog, not me, natman21:44
tyrognatman: Don't know why they wouldn't be as friendly as the others :)21:46
tyrogBetter experience for linux is with Intel wireless chips and Intel graphics too21:46

wilee-nileejohnjohn101, realease day and for a time after has the servers running hard, a torrent is best for downloads and seeding, a upgrade I would do now or wait, it is up to you. Todays daily is the release minus any last minute imperative updates.21:55
