Bashing-omdaftykins: Irt Eirikr As a 1st poke, reinstall the radeon driver ? ' sudo apt-get install --reinstall xserver-xorg-video-radeon '02:39
daftykinscould be worth a go!02:39
daftykinsi also found "sudo apt-get install --reinstall libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-dri xserver-xorg-core02:39
Bashing-omdaftykins: Uh huh .. was to be my next suggestion failing a simple reinstall of the driver .02:40
daftykinsvery frustrating when the Xorg log shows them trying to be used (ati + radeon) and yet ignoring for no reason02:41
Bashing-omdaftykins: Yeah .. system all confused . Ya done right . take away the choice !02:42

lotuspsychjegood morning EriC^^ :p03:44
EriC^^morning lotuspsychje03:44
lotuspsychjeEriC^^: ive been reading on forums of cars, same problems with clutch in 1st shuttering cars03:45
lotuspsychjeEriC^^: is it possible to replace parts on the glutch, for more smoothness in 1st gear?03:46
EriC^^you have to get used to it more i guess03:47
EriC^^honestly03:47
lotuspsychjedang03:48
EriC^^in older cars you could adjust the point at which the clutch engages, newer ones are hydraulic and self adjusting03:48
lotuspsychjei cant get used to this pfff03:48
EriC^^but that wouldn't affect smoothness unless it was way off to begin with03:48
lotuspsychjeits really anoying03:48
EriC^^you probably need to give it more gas if it's shaking and stuff03:49
lotuspsychjeEriC^^: its not shaking anymore, because i release it very very slow03:49
EriC^^that's the engine like almost dying and getting the rpms too low for a steady rotation03:49
EriC^^so what's the problem exactly03:49
lotuspsychjeEriC^^: but when i release to quick, cars shutsdown03:49
lotuspsychjeso every time i stop at the redlights03:50
lotuspsychjei start slow, because of too carefully releasing glutch03:50
lotuspsychjeits very sensitive03:50
lotuspsychjeand on the new car, i could release it in like 2sec03:51
Bashing-omlotuspsychje: Did you put the clutch plate in backwards ??03:51
lotuspsychjeBashing-om: i dont fix car myself, its a nissan almera 1400 from '9503:52
lotuspsychjeeveryone is telling me i need to hit the gas a bit....but on the new car i didnt have to do that03:53
lotuspsychjejust release glutch fully, only then i had to hit gas03:53
EriC^^it's cause it had more torque or a better idle management system ( that compensated for a lower rpm when you released quicker )03:53
lotuspsychjeah03:54
lotuspsychjeEriC^^: so i just have to face its an old car, nothing to replace so make it less sensitive?03:54
EriC^^you have to get better at driving manual tranny03:55
EriC^^it just takes some time, you'll get it03:55
lotuspsychjekk03:55
lotuspsychjeor save so money for a newer car :p03:56
EriC^^if you want to get this too little gas too much gas thing, try this, give it gas like you're revving the engine and let off the throttle, like how you see people do vroom..vroom.. quickly in movies?03:56
EriC^^nah it's better to actually learn skills :P03:56
EriC^^so give it gas like that, and then remove the clutch a bit03:57
EriC^^did you get what i mean?03:57
lotuspsychjeyeah03:57
lotuspsychjeEriC^^: whats the technical part of this technique?03:58
EriC^^it's like feeling for it03:58
lotuspsychjeEriC^^: engine goes in higher rpm is better to release glutch?03:59
EriC^^well it's like it will allow you to adjust03:59
EriC^^see if you give a huge rpm, but release the clutch only a bit, you want move forward, cause the clutch isn't fully engaged03:59
EriC^^so since you're revving it like that, the car won't die that easily and you have like a buffer to play with04:00
lotuspsychjeok04:00
EriC^^it'll get you used to the adjustment between clutch and throttle04:00
lotuspsychjeok ill try tnx04:01
EriC^^*wont move04:01
Bashing-omI have had all the fun I can stand .. lotuspsychje will you handle my light work till I return ?04:10
lotuspsychjeBashing-om: of course mate, sleep tight04:10
Bashing-omlater all04:11

lordievaderGood morning.09:36
lordievaderHmm, the snow turned to rain :(10:13
BluesKajHi folks12:33
daftykinsmore sensitive helpers *sigh*15:54
cfhowlettfeelz > realz15:56
BluesKajthen stay away from the ##linux chat, gotta have a fairly thick skin to deal with any mistakes one makes there  ;-)16:02
daftykinshaha16:06
daftykinsget a bit personal, do they?16:06
cfhowlettthey do have that rep, don't they?16:06
BluesKaj yeah, they have a few ppl who love to overeact to small advice mistakes16:07
TJ-I have several of the older regulars on permanent ignore there16:08
BluesKajhehe TJ- , i find it entertaining and even informative at times, unless certain parties get into the spew rants16:09
TJ-I don't come here to suffer fools; I filter out those that don't deserve my attention :P16:10
BluesKajthey do have their share of trolls dropping by alright16:12
cfhowlettI am reminded daily of hexchat's best feature: easily deployed and fully functional /ingore16:13
cfhowlett  /ignore16:13
BluesKajyup16:13
TJ-note to self: deal with outstanding todos more regularly! I'm having to go through tabs for bugs-in-progress that I've worked on since September and ubuntu devs haven't responded to. Grrr!16:14
BluesKajinteresting , i just found a 14.04 backport ppa that's just full of bugfixesand upgrades, which wasn't even mentioned in the logs in the dev chat ...couldn't beleive it slipped past me16:16
BluesKajback in november16:17
TJ-Isn't that where fixes are trialed before being moved into -updates or -security ?16:19
BluesKajTJ-:  usually they're uploaded to the repos default backports afaik, it was a surprise to me16:28
TJ-before they get into the archives though they're generally trialed via a PPA amongst developers16:30
BluesKajyeah, I keep thinking of 14.04 as more mature than it actaully is in it's development, LTSs are most like a limited rolling release.16:33
TJ-down to the last 7 tabs (of ~ 100!) and found several ubu-pastes I'd saved that contain useful shell script snippers - I'll squoo.sh them :)16:41
