[08:42] <thekorn> good morning
[08:44] <BUGabundo_work> hi thekorn
[08:44] <thekorn> hello BUGabundo_work
[08:44] <BUGabundo_work> can someone using kde check bug #86796. thanks
[08:44] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 86796 in seahorse "Ubuntu Key Server not in Seahorse default config" [Wishlist,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/86796
[08:44] <BUGabundo_work> humm that subject needs improvement
[08:44] <BUGabundo_work> no longer fits the ticket
[08:45] <BUGabundo_work> Hobbsee: hi. you use KDE right?
[08:46] <Hobbsee> BUGabundo_work: I haven't used KDE since gutsy.
[08:46] <Hobbsee> as in, the release of gutsy
[08:46] <Hobbsee> or a few days prior.
[08:46] <BUGabundo_work> ohh
[08:46] <BUGabundo_work> since your bio mentions you maintain some packages... I thought
[08:47] <Hobbsee> oh, is *that* where people are getting it from?
[08:47] <Hobbsee> Clearly, I need to update that ;)
[08:47] <BUGabundo_work> I guess
[08:47] <BUGabundo_work> you better improve your wiki page
[08:47] <BUGabundo_work> to state so
[08:47]  * Hobbsee hates writing pages about herself, so keeps putting it off
[08:47]  * BUGabundo_work asks Hobbsee to point to some kde user in this #
[08:48] <Hobbsee> BUGabundo_work: jussi01 is one
[08:48] <BUGabundo_work> I don't like it too... been postponing improvoming my own to submit to EAMA council
[08:48] <BUGabundo_work> jussi01: ping
[08:48] <Hobbsee> i believe limcore is also a KDE user, if you can manage to get anything but ranting out of him
[08:49] <Hobbsee> can't see anyone else standing out, offhand

[11:55] <Hew> There are so many compiz bugs, there should be a hug day or something to clean them up.
[11:56] <Hew> I reckon hundreds of them could be closed
[12:38] <Hew> Is it possible to get unsupported sourcepackages closed so people stop reporting bugs under the wrong package? eg. https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz-plugins
[12:39] <Hobbsee> Hew: No.  That would be too easy.
[12:40] <Hew> Hobbsee: Heh, makes sense :P
[12:40] <Hobbsee> Hew: I wonder...you might be able to get a LP admin to delete it
[12:40] <Hobbsee> but it's pretty brutal, and may well break other things
[12:40] <Hobbsee> read: is likely to
[12:41] <Hew> yes, it's not something worthy of risking breakage over
[14:27] <BUGabundo_work> any one know the bug behind this?
[14:27] <BUGabundo_work> OpenOffice.org 3.0.0 - INTREPID/JAUNTY ONLY The packages were buggy and crashed when openoffice.org-gnome was installed, they will be reuploaded when the bug has been resolved.
[14:28] <BUGabundo_work> can't find it on LP or google
[14:28] <BUGabundo_work> https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+question/52527 is related
=== nhandler_ is now known as nhandler
[15:28] <Hew> BUGabundo_work: OOo 3.0 is PPA only at this stage, so there won't necessarily be a bug report for it.
[15:33] <BUGabundo_work> hew but it is broken for openoffice.org-gnome
[15:33] <BUGabundo_work> I just can't find the bug
[15:50] <xteejx> Hi guys!
[15:59] <thekorn> james_w, good work on the sourcepackages bzr branches, now it's time for me to figure out how this all works ;)
[15:59] <james_w> hi thekorn

[16:34] <BUGabundo_work> bug #302857
[16:34] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 302857 in gtk+2.0 "Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "gail": libgail.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/302857
[16:34] <BUGabundo_work> it just broke my test system
[16:34] <BUGabundo_work> can't start any new app...
[16:38] <seb128> BUGabundo_work: do you have libgail-common installed?
[16:39] <BUGabundo_work> I have no idea
[16:39] <BUGabundo_work> gtk+2 was the lastest update I got via update-manager
[16:39] <BUGabundo_work> just rebooted my system (since I couldn't open any new apps)
[16:39] <BUGabundo_work> and now, _it looks_ strange
[16:40] <seb128> you can log in?
[16:40] <BUGabundo_work> I guess metacity / human theme exploded
[16:40] <seb128> when do you get this error?
[16:40] <BUGabundo_work> I have gdm autologin
[16:40] <BUGabundo_work> pidgin started
[16:40] <BUGabundo_work> but now background or window manager
[16:40] <BUGabundo_work> gnome-do is working
[16:41] <BUGabundo_work> when I tried to start trasmition
[16:41] <BUGabundo_work> it didn't start, so I tried to start it from a console
[16:41] <BUGabundo_work> and notice that error
[16:41] <BUGabundo_work> tried to use apport-cli but failed the same way
[16:41] <BUGabundo_work> couldn't open anything after that
[16:41] <seb128> hum
[16:41] <seb128> weird
[16:42] <seb128> apport-cli is a command line toolks
[16:42] <seb128> tools
[16:42] <seb128> it doesn't require gtk
[16:42] <BUGabundo_work> I know
[16:42] <BUGabundo_work> but it starts firefox
[16:42] <BUGabundo_work> doesn't it?
[16:42] <BUGabundo_work> or at least calls for x-www
[16:43] <BUGabundo_work> seb128: I can email you the rest of apt-changes if you want
[16:44] <BUGabundo_work> or let me try putting it in some pastebin
[16:51] <seb128> BUGabundo_work: do you have libgail18 installed?
[16:52]  * BUGabundo_work checking
[16:52] <BUGabundo_work> libgail18:
[16:52] <BUGabundo_work>   Installed: (none)
[16:52] <BUGabundo_work>   Candidate: 2.14.5-1ubuntu1
[16:52] <BUGabundo_work> doesn't look like it
[16:53] <seb128> ok, that's the issue
[16:53]  * BUGabundo_work instaling and rebooting
[16:54] <BUGabundo_work> Unable to contact DBus session: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ExecFailed: dbus-launch failed to autolaunch D-Bus session: Autolaunch error: X11 initialization failed.
[16:55] <BUGabundo_work> seb128: rebooting now
[16:56] <BUGabundo_work> seb128: autologin disapeared
[16:56] <BUGabundo_work> oopps
[16:56] <BUGabundo_work> I can't login now
[16:57] <BUGabundo_work> I just get bounced to GDM again
[16:59] <BUGabundo_work> seb128: stopping GDM and trying to startx from a TTY fails also
[17:04] <seb128> BUGabundo_work: did you install libgail18?
[17:04] <BUGabundo_work> yes
[17:05] <seb128> no idea what the issue is on your system then
[17:05] <seb128> things work correctly when it's installed there
[17:05] <BUGabundo_work> attaching x.0.log to ticket
[17:05] <seb128> that's not going to be useful
[17:05] <seb128> your issue seem to be an xorg one rather than due to gtk
[17:06] <BUGabundo_work> that's why I said I'm attacthing the xorg.0.log
[17:10] <BUGabundo_work> seb128: or anybody else mantaining X

[17:11] <BUGabundo_work> so you think I should change the package, seb128?
[17:11] <seb128> BUGabundo_work: you should rather open an another bug about the xorg issue, the xorg guys don't read the gtk bugs
[17:11] <seb128> BUGabundo_work: the warning is a gtk or gnome issue
[17:11] <seb128> dunno about xorg
[17:11] <BUGabundo_work> but that lib made me not login
[17:11] <BUGabundo_work> should I remove it again?
[17:12] <BUGabundo_work> or downgrade the installed packages?
[17:12] <seb128> BUGabundo_work: no, what happens when you try to log in?
[17:12] <BUGabundo_work> it just goes back to login
[17:13] <seb128> BUGabundo_work: try installing libgail-dev too
[17:13] <BUGabundo_work> it pulls libgail-common
[17:14] <BUGabundo_work> from the list of updated packages

[20:52] <drmad> hi everybody. I need help with a bug. Well... I need advice on how to proceed, or perhaps how to fix it
[20:53] <jmarsden> drmad: Go aheda and ask the real question... decribe the bug and what you have already tried to fix it...
[20:53] <drmad> I just installed ubuntu 8.10 64 bits on my PC. It have two videocards:
[20:53] <drmad> [root@dorothy ~]# lspci  | grep VGA
[20:53] <drmad> 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82G33/G31 Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 10)
[20:53] <drmad> 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation Device 0641 (rev a1)
[20:54] <drmad> ok. The Intel one is integrated with the motherboard, and the primary one. When I installed ubuntu, everything went ok
[20:55] <drmad> The Intel head shows all the output. Then I activated the "extra" (for compiz, et al), then Ubuntu asked me to install the NVidia driver, even the nvidia head was off
[20:56] <drmad> ok, i installed. When it finished to install, the compiz was working fine on the intel head. But when I reboot, X doesn't run :(
[20:57] <jmarsden> drmad: Doesn't run?  or runs on the nVidia card?  plug a monitor into the nVidia and reboot?
[20:57] <drmad> nop, nothing
[20:57] <drmad> just show the old text screen (alt-f1)
[20:58] <drmad> a tail /var/log/gdm/\:0.log:
[20:58] <jmarsden> Use pastebin for that...
[20:58] <drmad> ok
[20:59] <drmad> http://pastebin.com/m39eed92c
[21:00] <drmad> I tried to use the xfix from the failsafe menu, but nothing happens
[21:00] <jmarsden> Have you tried sudo dpkg-reconfigure xorg-server    ?
[21:01] <jmarsden> Looks like either something is unhappy about the xorg.conf or you don't have a kernel module loaded that the nVidia driver wants.
[21:01] <drmad> i tried sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg , as a xorg.conf comment suggests
[21:01] <drmad> nothing
[21:02] <jmarsden> Hmm.  I'm not an nVidia / proprietary driver kind of user... you could remove the nVidia packages for now??  Or ask in #ubuntu and see if someone there can help more with the nVidia stuff?
[21:03] <drmad> jmarsden: hmmm ok. I'll remove it. brb
[21:20] <drmad> i just removed every 'nvidia' package in the ubuntu
[21:20] <drmad> ...and nothing :(
[21:24] <drmad> I'll post this bug on launchpad
[21:24] <drmad> thanks!
