[01:29] that's the thing... of course it is... I can play h264 videos with totem, and chrome [01:29] it's just firefox that has the problem [02:19] t [02:41] I hate column writers [02:42] the 5 biggest changes in Ubuntu 15.04 [02:42] 4) Still using Unity 7 for the desktop [02:42] THAT'S NOT A CHANGE, DUMBASS [02:42] and Kernel update isn't a big update [02:43] it's a big update when it's Linux 4.0 with no-reboot patching [02:43] also one of these is "updated applications" [02:43] your new software comes with new software, one of the biggest changes you'll notice [02:43] I should buy a friggin' lwn subscription [02:43] There probably aren't 5 big changes in Ubuntu 15.04 [02:47] Daekdroom: yes but what the hell? [02:48] ZDNet lists "using the same desktop as the last version" as a change [02:48] I'm not excusing lazy journalism. [02:48] Besides, that is such a change the exact same thing happened in 14.10 :P [02:51] heh yeah [02:51] i found the 14.10 upgrade lackluster: the only thing I really noticed was my graphics driver became shit. [02:51] it's still shit. [02:52] 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] 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] 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.

[10:05] lordievader: did that blokes audio get sorted out last night? [10:29] He removed PA, lost interest after that. [10:31] people do that a lot ... I read something from 6 years ago that said PA was bad, so ... [10:32] I'm sure that people did have issues with it - must have been lucky here ;) [10:32] 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] PA was very annoying in the beginning. But lately I've began to enjoy it. [10:34] as I said - must have been lucky here, never had any problems with it [10:41] i remove it for my htpc but had no problem on the desktop. [11:58] Howdy all [11:59] Fine [13:37] MonkeyDust: hello [13:57] lotuspsychje [13:57] MonkeyDust: add discuss to your favs mate :p [14:15] MonkeyDust: #ubuntu-discuss that is [17:12] 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] Launchpad bug 1438422 in urfkill (Ubuntu) "Hybrid laptop's accelerometer tilt interpreted as WiFi hardware switch" [Undecided,New] [17:13] (so I might try to make a more detailed diagnosis myself) [17:29] oh that's quite a funny bug [17:32] * penguin42 added a question [18:13] penguin42: That's a good point; I'll try booting with the other kernel [18:14] ##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] penguin42: Tested 3.16.0-29 . Bug stayed the same. Posted info in Launchpad [18:37] MoPac: Do you have an /etc/urfkill - and if so what is it's contents? [18:38] hardware.conf profile urfkill.conf -- should I make pastes of them? [18:39] 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] 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] 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] MoPac: Yeh, I suspect the airplane thing is the same problem - that's the thing that's supposed to trigger the rfkill
