NebucatnetzerHello everyone :)08:19
NebucatnetzerI've got a question about the online accounts.08:20
NebucatnetzerAFAIK in Gnome there's an option to connect to owncloud. However I don't see that option in Ubuntu Gnome.08:21
NebucatnetzerI couldn't find a way to add it, does someone of you maybe know a way or the reason why it's missing?08:21
lindolWhen will we start to translate some package for about Ubuntu gnome 15.10?09:57
lindolbecause I want to improve the translation that i translated ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu package in ubuntu gnome 15.04 :)10:03
Foragegood afternoon10:50
Forageever since I updated from 14.10 to 15.04 I have a weird issue with my mouse in combination with a dual monitor setup10:51
Forageat the login screen, as well as after logging in, I can't move my mouse from the left screen to the right one10:52
Forageboth monitors are working though10:52
ForageI never had this with a previous Ubuntu and it's not GNOME 3.16 related either10:53
Foragewith 14.10 I had 3.14 and it was no problem. With 15.04 I first had 3.14 with the problem and updating to 3.16 didn't fix it10:54
ForageThere is one workaround to "fix" it. At login I have to push my mouse against the right edge of the left monitor when I hit the "Return" key at the password prompt. Everything is working properly again after the login when I do this10:56
ForageWhen I forget to do this at the login screen then the same result can be achieved after logging in by doing the same with my mouse and triggering a Shell restart with ALT+F2 and executing the "r" command10:57
ForageWhat could be the cause of the problem and how do I fix it?10:58
ForageIs it Ubuntu or GNOME related, to possibly report it elsewhere?10:59
Forage(p.s. the channel topic is outdated)11:00
NebucatnetzerDid some wrote an answer to my question?11:59
ForageNebucatnetzer: what was the question?12:13
Nebucatnetzerabout the online accounts12:28
NebucatnetzerOn arch I can add an owncloud account12:28
Nebucatnetzeron ubuntu gnome it's missing but AFAIK it's a standard option of gnome12:28
ForageNebucatnetzer: I have the option in my Online Accounts list to add an ownCloud account12:30
Foragewhat version of GNOME are you on?12:31
Nebucatnetzer3.1412:31
Nebucatnetzerubuntu 15.0412:31
Nebucatnetzerall up to date12:31
Foragehmm, ownCloud should be there since 3.812:32
Nebucatnetzerit only shows: google, jabber, aim, salut and yahoo12:32
ForageAre you on ubuntu or ubuntu gnome?12:32
Nebucatnetzerdo you know if it's in a package? I couldn't find one when I was searching before.12:32
Nebucatnetzerubuntu gnome12:32
ForageNebucatnetzer: doesn't look like it requires a particular package12:34
Nebucatnetzertried a reinstall of the online accounts package but that didn't change anything :(12:35
Foragejust checking: gnome-online-accounts was the one you tried, no?12:36
Nebucatnetzeraye12:37
Nebucatnetzersudo apt-get intall --reinstall gnome-online-accounts12:37
Foragetry all the other *goa* packages as well12:38
Nebucatnetzer?12:38
Foragelibgoa etc12:39
Nebucatnetzeroka12:40
Nebucatnetzery12:40
Foragedon't forget to re-login afterwards just in case, I'm not sure when that list gets populated12:43
Nebucatnetzer_no luck with that12:43
Foragedarn12:43
Nebucatnetzer_apt-get install goa-*12:43
Nebucatnetzer_äh12:44
Nebucatnetzer_apt-get install lib-goa-*12:44
Forageapt-get install --reinstall libgoa*12:45
Foragegvfs-backends-goa as well when you are at it12:46
Nebucatnetzer_okay reinstalled the packages going for another reboot12:47
ForageNebucatnetzer_: re-login should be sufficient12:47
Nebucatnetzerno luck either12:48
Foragegrrr12:48
NebucatnetzerI could try a reinstall of the whole environment12:49
NebucatnetzerOr would that be too risky?12:49
Foragethat's a bit drastic and should not be needed12:50
Nebucatnetzerokay12:51
=== aaron_ is now known as ahoneybun
ForageNebucatnetzer: sorry, I can't help you more either. Some searching didn't give me more options for you to try to try12:56
Nebucatnetzernevermind :) thanks anyway for your help12:57
Forageyou might have better luck in the ubuntu or even the gnome channel, it doesn't have to be only ubuntu gnome being affected12:58
NebucatnetzerOkay I wil ltry that :)13:03
acerhi, i have issues with graphics on gnome 3 with ubuntu gnome 14.04.2 lts14:04
zundrlihello everyone16:08
zundrlidoes anyone have the same problem where installing the fglrx driver via the "additional drivers" menu makes your system unbootable?16:08
Foragezundrli: which Ubuntu version? Which AMD card?16:26
Forageand do the drivers get installed properly?16:26
zundrlimobility radeon 5000 series17:01
zundrliyes, the "additional drivers" menu didnt put out any error messages17:01
zundrliubuntu 15.04 GNOME17:01
darthanubisBug: Bad page map in process Compositor pte:002000000 pmd:1cec606717:20
darthanubiswhich kernel shipped with 15.0417:21
darthanubisI think I need to roll it back, before I do a reinstall17:21
darthanubis3.19.0-20-generic #20-Ubuntu SMP Fri May 29 10:10:47 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux17:22
darthanubisthat's what I'm running now17:22
darthanubisand this one, and the previous I'm getting random kernel oops17:22
Foragezundrli: your card is at least still supported. Try installing the driver manually instead of using the additional drivers section. I never got that to work properly for me either18:35
Foragezundrli: "sudo apt-get install fglrx-updates"18:35
zundrliits really weird that it only affects the ubuntu releases from the past months18:36
zundrliany other distro just install it via system settings gui BAM done18:36
ForageI always had problems updating Ubuntu because of that driver18:36
Foragea reinstall is always needed in my case18:37
Forage(of the driver)18:37
zundrliwell the thing is, i´m on a fresh install. i read just now that the problem might be with gnome 3 including some wayland stuff which the ati installer cant deal with19:02
zundrliany ideas?19:02
Foragezundrli: I'm on 15.04 with fglrx as well19:13
zundrliwith wm?19:13
Foragewm?19:13
Foragewhat do you mean by wm?19:14
zundrliwindow manager19:14
Foragenot sure what you mean by that19:15
ForageI'm on Ubuntu GNOME with GDM, fglrx, GNOME Shell19:15
Forageit worked with 3.14 as well as 3.16 for me19:16
zundrlihow did you install the fglrx driver19:16
zundrliits weird that its not working for me, but for you19:16
ForageI updated from 14.10 but manually installed fglrx again before rebooting19:17
Foragewhat is happening for you when you reboot?19:17
zundrliwhen i have a fresh 15.04 GNOME install, i do apt-get update and upgrade19:18
zundrlithen i get the driver via the "additional drivers" menu / from ati´s website19:18
zundrliafter install, i reboot19:18
zundrlii see grub, i see the gnome logo, but after that the screen stays black19:19
Foragewith or without backlight?19:19
Foragewith or without the 3 dots as progress indicator?19:20
Foragezundrli: gksu gedit /etc/default/grub19:24
Foragechange "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"" to "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="text""19:24
Foragesudo update-grub19:24
Foragereboot and see if you get to see errors during boot19:25
zundrliits just a regular boot up19:25
zundrlii select the fresh install to boot in grub, it loads, displays the gnome logo, screen turns & stays black19:25
Foragemake those changes I mentioned so we can see if you get errors during boot19:26
Forageby making the changes you don't get to see the gnome splash screen19:26
zundrliwell, the problem is, i cant boot the system19:30
zundrliso i cant open gedit and stuff19:31
Forageah, OK, reboot19:31
Foragewhen in grub, press E on the Ubuntu entry19:31
Foragefind the line which has "quiet splash" almost at the end19:32
Foragechange those two words to "text"19:32
Foragepress F10 to resume booting19:32
Foragesame effect19:33
zundrlii no longer have the system installed19:33
zundrliim in the process of a new install19:33
Foragethen there's nothing I can do at the moment19:34
Forageyou might want to provide that info a bit sooner19:34
zundrlishould i just go ahead and try to install the driver again once the system install is done?19:34
Forageyes19:34
Forageif you really want that driver19:34
zundrlisorry im not a native english speaker and its sometimes hard to describe stuff19:34
Forageyou don't have to install the closed source driver19:35
Forageit's up to you19:35
zundrlii need that driver because war thunder doesnt launch with the open source one19:35
ForageOK19:36
Foragethen yes, install it but use the command line way, not the additonal drivers section19:36
zundrliwhat i didnt try yet is installing the driver via terminal only19:36
zundrlimaybe do that when the system is booted up19:37
Forageyes19:37
zundrlican you give me the input please?19:37
ForageI already did19:37
Foragesudo apt-get install fglrx-updates19:37
Forageand change that config file I mentioned earlier19:38
zundrliok ill report back once ive done it19:38
Forageso you can see error messages during boot19:38
Forageyou can always change it back afterwards19:39
zundrliim doing stuff now, might take a few minutes19:39
ForageI'm off for the evening19:40
zundrlioh, alright19:40
zundrlisee you tomorrow i guess?19:40
Foragehow long does it take you to install the system and try it?19:41
zundrlii guess 15 minutes or so19:43
Foragesorry, I can't wait that long19:43
Foragemake sure you make the grub change before rebooting as well19:44
Forageso you can see any possible errors during boot19:44
darthanubisso I found bad ram. Glad I did not have to reinstall19:44
zundrlii dont want to be hogging your time though, im thankful for your help already19:44
Foragereport back with a possible error if you still can't boot19:45
Forageif that error does not give you a clue what to fix of course19:45
zundrliokay thanks for everything, see ya forage19:46
Foragezundrli: np, good luck!19:46
