[01:29] <psusi> that's the thing... of course it is... I can play h264 videos with totem, and chrome
[01:29] <psusi> it's just firefox that has the problem
[02:19] <bandit-awake> t
[02:41] <Bluefoxicy> I hate column writers
[02:42] <Bluefoxicy> the 5 biggest changes in Ubuntu 15.04
[02:42] <Bluefoxicy> 4) Still using Unity 7 for the desktop
[02:42] <Bluefoxicy> THAT'S NOT A CHANGE, DUMBASS
[02:42] <Bluefoxicy> and Kernel update isn't a big update
[02:43] <Bluefoxicy> it's a big update when it's Linux 4.0 with no-reboot patching
[02:43] <Bluefoxicy> also one of these is "updated applications"
[02:43] <Bluefoxicy> your new software comes with new software, one of the biggest changes you'll notice
[02:43] <Bluefoxicy> I should buy a friggin' lwn subscription
[02:43] <Daekdroom> There probably aren't 5 big changes in Ubuntu 15.04
[02:47] <Bluefoxicy> Daekdroom: yes but what the hell?
[02:48] <Bluefoxicy> ZDNet lists "using the same desktop as the last version" as a change
[02:48] <Daekdroom> I'm not excusing lazy journalism.
[02:48] <Daekdroom> Besides, that is such a change the exact same thing happened in 14.10 :P
[02:51] <Bluefoxicy> heh yeah
[02:51] <Bluefoxicy> i found the 14.10 upgrade lackluster:  the only thing I really noticed was my graphics driver became shit.
[02:51] <Bluefoxicy> it's still shit.
[02:52] <Bluefoxicy> It was fantastic and snappy and stable in 14.04.  When I moved to 14.10, it would actively crash.  It doesn't crash anymore, but Chrome does crash; it sticks and lags when in use, which is why I no longer use Rhythmbox (which causes such lag as to softlock my workstation and require a power cycle)
[02:53] <Bluefoxicy> I filed a bug, and they told me my bios obviously needed updating.  I did that (it wasn't easy!  Somehow you have to boot DOS, without floppy drives; the original bios utility would fail if you used memdisk), and it's still broken; but Atlas shrugged, and nobody gives a shit if Intel HD2000 graphics don't work.
[02:53] <Bluefoxicy> I'm hoping the new 15.04 kernel actually works, because otherwise I'll still have a buggy, broken OS to deal with, and I'm sure filing a bug is useless.
[02:54]  * Bluefoxicy vent.
[09:06] <lordievader> Good morning.
[10:05] <MoonUnit`> lordievader: did that blokes audio get sorted out last night?
[10:29] <lordievader> He removed PA, lost interest after that.
[10:31] <elfy> people do that a lot ... I read something from 6 years ago that said PA was bad, so ...
[10:32] <elfy> I'm sure that people did have issues with it - must have been lucky here ;)
[10:32] <lordievader> PA can be annoying. People's reaction to just remove it is, in my opinion, way too blunt and not a whole lot of fun.
[10:33] <lordievader> PA was very annoying in the beginning. But lately I've began to enjoy it.
[10:34] <elfy> as I said - must have been lucky here, never had any problems with it
[10:41] <MoonUnit`> i remove it for my htpc but had no problem on the desktop.
[11:58] <BluesKaj> Howdy all
[11:59] <vitimiti> Fine
[13:37] <lotuspsychje> MonkeyDust: hello
[13:57] <MonkeyDust> lotuspsychje
[13:57] <lotuspsychje> MonkeyDust: add discuss to your favs mate :p
[14:15] <lotuspsychje> MonkeyDust: #ubuntu-discuss that is
[17:12] <MoPac> Hello. I've experienced a reversion sometime during the 15.04 development that has affected how signals from my laptop's hardware sensors are interpreted. Nobody has taken official interest in the bug report (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1438422), so I'm hoping that someone here might be able to point me to where to look for sensor / hardware switch config
[17:13] <MoPac> (so I might try to make a more detailed diagnosis myself)
[17:29] <penguin42> oh that's quite a funny bug
[17:32]  * penguin42 added a question
[18:13] <MoPac> penguin42: That's a good point; I'll try booting with the other kernel
[18:14] <MoPac> ##kernel hadn't been interested in the question, so I had been thinking that maybe it wasn't that after all, but I should have tested
[18:26] <MoPac> penguin42: Tested 3.16.0-29 .  Bug stayed the same. Posted info in Launchpad
[18:37] <penguin42> MoPac: Do you have an /etc/urfkill - and if so what is it's contents?
[18:38] <MoPac> hardware.conf  profile  urfkill.conf  -- should I make pastes of them?
[18:39] <penguin42> MoPac: Well, I don't know much about urfkill, but is there anything in there that looks like it could be relevant to saying what buttons it does etc?
[18:45] <MoPac> penguin42: not necessarily to my untrained eye.  Here's everything in that folder http://paste.ubuntu.com/10846302/ . It has general information about key control, but it's hard for me to tell (a) whether I need to set something different or (b) why, even given that I don't have a hardware switch and it's looking for one, it would mistake the accelerometer
[18:51] <MoPac> I've also noticed that I have an airplane mode key that no longer seems to do anything on this device, whereas I think used to get an "airplane mode" notification when I toggled it
[18:56] <penguin42> MoPac: Yeh, I suspect the airplane thing is the same problem - that's the thing that's supposed to trigger the rfkill
