=== Uno is now known as Plio
PlioI know 14.04 is pretty much on a daily release, but is it stable enough for a production machine yet?01:35
pietro10Hi. In Kubuntu 14.04 with kde-config-gtk and gtk[23]-engines-oxygen, font rendering does not look like it does in KDE programs. Firefox, however, has perfect font rendering. How do I fix this? Thanks.01:36
k1lPlio: if you need to ask that the answer is just: no01:36
k1lPlio: it is quite stable, but there is no intention to keep it stable while in dev release. so no, no production systems suggested01:36
Pliokil: Cool, thanks. I'd love to install 12.04 LTS, but I really like the ability to close windows when using windows spread. Not sure if there's any way to do that.01:37

jKlausI doubt we'll see any bug fixes that can't be updated later..05:03

bekksNo.13:11
bekksDont touch the sources manually.13:11
jackdoes it as well? cool13:11
k1ljack: no "fixing" needed on ubuntu. we got routines for that.13:11
jack:)13:11

jacklike for google-chrome13:12
k1lhmm.13:12

christofferAnyone else have any issues with printing in Xubuntu 14.04? ...when trying to print test page to network cups server it starts to print infinite empty pages13:15
penguin42christoffer: I'd check /var/log/cups to see if there are any errors13:16
penguin42<breakfast>13:16
christofferpenguin42, already done that, that's why I'm asking if someone here has had any similiar problems13:18
christofferas I haven't found any problem/error messages13:18
TJ-christoffer: It's worth looking inside the spooled files to see what, exactly, is being sent to the printer13:22
shadeslayerpietro10: kde-config-touchpad should now be unbroken ( package still needs building and migration )14:41
shadeslayerpietro10: let me know if dist-upgrade still wants to remove it14:41
=== Wug is now known as 21WACCEWU
BluesKajkde-touchpad is working here after a reboot14:55
TJ-Grrr! "grub-install: error: attempt to install to encrypted disk without cryptodisk enabled. Set `GRUB_ENABLE_CRYPTODISK=1' in file `/etc/default/grub'." ... and yet it is specified!15:12
mnemochi, I upgraded to xubuntu 14.04 and the mouse pointer in my secondary display (VGA) is deform and followed by a black box... any hint of who can be responsible?18:34
penguin42graphics driver18:34
penguin42mnemoc: You can probably make it work again by setting the SWCursor option in an Xorg.conf fragment18:35
mnemocI tried using xorg-edgers and still same problem... radeon18:35
mnemocthanks, I'll try that18:36
penguin42mnemoc: OK, so reporting it to the upstream Radeon lists18:36
mnemocis it ok to use radeon for an amd apu a5?18:37
* penguin42 doesn't know18:38
penguin42I'd expect it to work, but there again I came across someones laptop with a very knew APU that refused to boot 13.1018:38
penguin42mnemoc: If you're only problem is the mouse pointer the SWCursor thing should work as a fix18:39
mnemoci didn't get a display in 13.10 until I installed the xorg-edgers ppa, but iirc the driver name was different.18:39
mnemocI'll try that SWCursor thing now. thanks18:39
penguin42mnemoc: OK, well that suggests 14.04 is getting there18:39
mnemoc:)18:40
mnemocanother issue I have is that 2 of my 3 USB ports (coming from my only usb3 hub) are in deep sleep :( even setting power/control to on and autosuspend to -1   :(18:43
penguin42one of the ports is oK?18:47
penguin42is this an onboard USB port ?18:47
mnemocpenguin42: SWCursor did the trick, thanks!19:01
mnemocpenguin42: yes, onboard USBs of my laptop19:01
mnemocpenguin42: the powered USB2.0 works fine, the USB3.0/5000M hub is in deep sleep :\19:02
penguin42mnemoc: OK, so I wonder about the 3rd port that isn't in deep sleep; some laptops have a USB port that's *always* powered even if the laptop in sleep, and I wonder if it's that one?19:02
mnemocit is a yellow port... so yes, it's the case19:02
mnemoc(in 13.10 they all worked fine)19:03
penguin42ok, I'd file that against Linux and mark it as a regression19:03
mnemocbtw, i remembered the name of the video driver I used in 13.10, glamoregl... tried that one instead of radeon and got a nice serie of segfaults :p19:04
mnemocpenguin42: ubuntu-bug linux ?19:05
penguin42I thought modern X already used glamout19:05
penguin42mnemoc: Yeh I'd said so19:05
astropirateHello friends19:07
astropirateHow can I install the 14.04 Alpha without a DVD?19:07
penguin42use a USB thumb drive19:07
tewardwrite the ISO to a USB drive19:07
tewardblah, penguin42 beat me to it19:07
astropiratealright19:07
astropiratei have to go buy those :(19:07
astropiratei th ought i'd never have to buy another19:07
penguin42always good to have a few 4-8GB ones lying around for stuff like this19:08
astropirateyah perhaps19:08
astropiratei forgot my blank DVDs at work19:08
astropirateis the Alpha version usable?19:08
k1l_its a dev release19:08
astropirateI screwed up my current 12.04 install19:08
astropirateand instead of installing 13.10 and in a couple of months upgrading again19:09
penguin42it's a dev release but isn't doing too bad19:09
k1l_if you need to worry about stableness and usabilty then dont use it :/19:09
astropirateit would be very convenient to just upgrade to 14.0419:09
bekksastropirate: In April, you can.19:09
astropiratebekks, aye, I know it is being released as final in April, but wondering if it is usable now19:09
astropirateas in won't randomly crash19:09
astropirate"stable" relative word19:10
bekksastropirate: Until the final release, it is not stable.19:10
astropiratebekks, thanks buddy19:10
mnemocpenguin42: after ppa-purging xorg-edgers, glxinfo | grep render tells OpenGL renderer string: Gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe (LLVM 3.4, 128 bits)19:10
mnemocpenguin42: and glamour is gone from dpkg -l19:11
k1l_astropirate: its usable. but as you know it will break if you need important stuff to do19:14
BluesKajstability is the word, but not necessarily so on devs , but so far so good with Kubuntu 14.04 here19:15
k1l_yes, stability is in the focus after the release :)19:15
BluesKaji dont need a stable release up to a point, since I'm not running work environment pc19:19
mnemocpenguin42: installing the ati driver solved the the hwcursor issue, and how glxinfo tells: OpenGL renderer string: Gallium 0.4 on AMD KABINI19:30
mnemocno clue what's the diff between radeon and ati :(19:31
penguin42mnemoc: Check your /var/log/Xorg.0.log19:31
penguin42mnemoc: I thought the -ati was just a wrapper that loaded the appropriate driver19:32
mnemocit pulled xserver-xorg-video-glamoregl in19:32
mnemocbut /var/log/Xorg.0.log still tells RADEON(0)...19:33
mnemocnow I only need to get my USB3 ports back to be completely happy :)19:34
astropirateI'm glad stability is the new focus19:40
astropiratespecially after the 12.04 LTS debacle :(19:40
astropirateUpgrading to 14.04 wish me luck20:41
mansoorFriends, how do I get to the "restricted-drivers" application to install nvidia propiatory drivers?22:51
mansoorI can't seemt o be able to find it22:51

k1l_system settings, updates, last tab22:57
k1l_or you just use apt-get22:57
k1l_and 14.04 is still in dev-mode so installing a nvidia driver might not be the biggest challenge22:57
mansoorHAHAHAH wtf?23:01

mansoorbut it says 13.10 everywhere23:01
mansoorexcept the boot screen23:01

pietro10Hi. On KDE, all GTK+ apps except firefox-trunk for some reason are not rendering fonts properly, even though gtk[23]-engines-oxygen is set. How do I fix this? Thanks.23:55
