[11:18] <lotuspsychje> any bugs for xvidcap in precise yet?
[11:24] <popey> lotuspsychje: I'd use kazam rather than xvidcap
[11:25] <lotuspsychje> popey: yeah you reccomended me last time kazam and eidete
[11:25] <lotuspsychje> popey: but eidete crashed my desktop
[11:26] <popey> i have not tried eidete
[11:26] <lotuspsychje> i hope they fix xvidcap 32 depth error bug one day...
[11:26] <popey> is the bug filed?
[11:26] <lotuspsychje> yes
[11:26] <popey> where?
[11:27] <lotuspsychje> sorry cant run browser atm low 3g
[11:27] <popey> the project looks dead to me
[11:27] <lotuspsychje> its called xvidcap 32 depth video error or something
[11:27] <popey> no releases for years
[11:27] <lotuspsychje> but its still in repos
[11:28] <lotuspsychje> software centre
[11:28] <popey> yeah, it should probably be removed
[11:28] <lotuspsychje> it worked flawless for months here
[11:28] <lotuspsychje> no encoding time waiting afterwards neither
[11:28] <lotuspsychje> was very happy with it
[11:29] <lotuspsychje> until it freezed :p
[11:30] <popey> its been buggy for years
[11:30] <popey> and nobody is maintaining it
[11:30] <lotuspsychje> oh really
[11:30] <popey> yeah
[11:30] <lotuspsychje> thats too bad
[11:30] <popey> i switched from xvidcap to recordmydesktop and ffmpeg about 2 years ago
[11:30] <popey> there have been no releases, no fixes since then
[11:31] <lotuspsychje> does your recordmydesktop not using encoding time after recording?
[11:31] <popey> i dont use recordmydesktop now
[11:31] <popey> I use ffmpeg
[11:31] <lotuspsychje> gui?
[11:31] <popey> no, a script
[11:31] <lotuspsychje> oh
[11:31] <lotuspsychje> can it record specific area?
[11:31] <popey> yes
[11:32] <lotuspsychje> easy to config?
[11:33] <popey> not as easy as xvidcap
[11:33] <lotuspsychje> tought so :p
[11:33] <popey> meh
[11:33] <popey> it works
[11:33] <lotuspsychje> in software centre i saw some ffmpeg equivalents too
[11:35] <lotuspsychje> you think if someone placed a new bug for xvidcap they would look at it in precise?
[11:36] <popey> nope
[11:36] <lotuspsychje> lol

[11:36] <popey> nobody is touching xvidcap bugs

[11:37] <lotuspsychje> too bad : (
[11:37] <lotuspsychje> ok well tnx for helping anyway
[11:38] <popey> I'm going to file a bug to get it removed from ubuntu
[11:38] <lotuspsychje> and if you find something easy
[11:38] <popey> no point having a broken/unmaintained tool in the archive
[11:38] <popey> kazam is easy
[11:38] <popey> and is under development
[11:38] <lotuspsychje> ill give it a shot
[11:39] <lotuspsychje> tnx

[14:05] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[14:06] <BluesKaj> Q: has the kernel panic and access to grub recovery kernel problem been fixed yet ?
[14:07] <edgy> BluesKaj: for me everything is working fine
[14:11] <BluesKaj> edgy, so you didn't have that problem last week ?
[14:11] <edgy> BluesKaj: I had it and I used --no-log but then with the updates I didn't need that
[14:12] <BluesKaj> edgy, so the updates fixed it
[14:13] <edgy> BluesKaj: yes, but maybe they just made a workaround like using --no-log in upstart till they figure out how to solve it properly but practically it's working
[14:13] <grawcho_> geser: thanks ... fixed it
[14:14] <Ian_Corne> edgy:
[14:14] <Ian_Corne> just remove the folder and make it there again, worked for me, didn't teste office tho :p

[14:16] <edgy> Ian_Corne: let me try ...
[14:17] <BluesKaj> well libreoffice has updates blocked on my other pc runing 12.04 due it's dependency problem :(
[14:17] <edgy> Ian_Corne: I removed the files inside the directory and it seems it's working now. thanks for the hint
[14:22] <edgy> BluesKaj: you can solve it as Ian_Corne mentioned
[14:27] <BluesKaj> edgy, i joined too late to see what he suggested , unless it's about removing the folder
[14:28] <iceroot> BluesKaj: i can also confirm that the updates fixed the kernel-panic with io.c and upstart errors last week
[14:29] <BluesKaj> iceroot, thanks

[18:39] <rigved> hi everyone.
[18:41] <rigved> i'm running 12.04. today when i tried to update my machine, dpkg got stuck. it was trying to upgrade libreoffice 3.4 to 3.5. The pre-inst script needed to remove /usr/lib/libreoffice/basis3.4/ folder using rmdir, but couldn't because the basis3.4 folder wasn't empty.
[18:42] <rigved> The basis3.4 folder had one folder called program and a hidden file. So, I manually deleted the contents of the basis3.4 folder. The installation went on to completion properly.
[18:44] <BluesKaj> ok , ugraded to Kubuntu 12.04, so far so good ..hope it stays that way
[18:46] <Pici> rigved: /58
[18:47] <Pici> rigved: sorry. I meant to ask if you had filed a bug
[18:47] <BluesKaj> folderview still hides part of itself below and behind the panel
[18:47] <rigved> Libreoffice is working fine. Only thing is the Libreoffice launcher icon is missing. Also, the libreoffice loading bar is green, instead of orange.
[18:48] <EvilResistance> when's the freeze for new package inclusion?
[18:48] <rigved> Pici: not yet.
[18:48] <rigved> Pici: I'll do that now.
[18:49] <BluesKaj> rigved, i had to completely rid my other pc of libreoffice from all the dirs plus all the dependencies in order to update / upgrade ...I purged libreoffice on this pc before upgrading to 12.04
[18:52] <rigved> BluesKaj: this is a fresh install of Ubuntu 12.04. I installed this about two weeks after alpha 1 was released, from the daily image.
[19:01] <BluesKaj> rigved, ok , I guess you lucked out on the kernel panic and recovery kernel access block , which my previous 12.04 didn't survive. I lost patience and reverted to 11.10 , just upgraded again a few mins ago.
[19:06] <BluesKaj> BBL , gonna push some snow
[19:07] <rigved> BluesKaj: good for me! I purposely waited that long. The new testing interface (running on Jenkins afir) is really helpful. :)
[19:07] <rigved> Pici: filed the bug report as bug 916177.
[19:07] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 916177 in libreoffice (Ubuntu) "Libreoffice 3.4 failed to upgrade to 3.5 because the pre-inst script was unable to remove /usr/lib/libreoffice/basis3.4 folder" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/916177
[19:09] <jtaylor> rigved: please check for duplicates first
[19:09] <jtaylor> there are already several hundred of these bugs
[19:09] <jtaylor> a new version is already building, it will be done for the main arches in ~10 hurs
[19:09] <rigved> jtaylor: ok. will do so.
[19:13] <nhaines> synergyc is giving me all kinds of trouble on precise.
[19:13] <nhaines> I need to sit down and run it in a console and see if it's bug time.
[19:19] <rigved> i found duplicates. so, i should mark my bug as a duplicate of the very first related bug, right?
[19:21] <jtaylor> rigved: I did so already
[19:27] <jtaylor> oh the libre offive build is done already on am64 :O
[19:27] <jtaylor> 6 hours faster that the last one
[19:44] * BluesKaj will wait til the dust clears in a few days or so to reinstall LO
[19:54] <BluesKaj> ok, gotta clear some more snow ..break is over

[20:45] <webm0nk3y> where do i file a bug about the clock disappearing in unity (latest update)
[20:47] <trism> webm0nk3y: there was a dep problem: sudo apt-get install indicator-datetime; should get it back
[20:48] <webm0nk3y> right, but lets say I see a bug like this. where would i file the bug?
[20:50] <trism> not necessarily sure you should, these issues pop up in the dev release, need to pay attention when you dist-upgrade
[20:55] <edgy> Hi, I couldn't see my home wifi any more, though I can see my neigbour's. At the same time I can see it from my mobile so it's working
