[00:09] okay, 1) what happened to the Appearance icon in the control panel? 2) How do I disable compositing, at least temporarily? [00:12] roothorick, 1) I think "User Interface" is what you're looking for and 2) You cannot use Unity and compositing. Log in Unity2D session. [00:12] *use Unity without compositing [00:15] wait, so there isn't a session option in control panel anymore? [00:15] What do you mean by session option? [00:16] I mean, what did it use to do? [00:23] there was an option somewhere in CP that let you switch your default session [00:23] ah whatever === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang === adys`nosopa is now known as Adys [02:38] Indicator-datetime-service is eating as much of my CPU as it can get. strace: pastebin.com/jwPN4KJx === Adys is now known as Allowfaster === Allowfaster is now known as Adys === Andr---- is now known as AndrewMC [03:40] Indicator-datetime-service is eating as much of my CPU as it can get. strace fragment: http://pastebin.com/jwPN4KJx [03:57] litropy: that seems like a lot of warnings being written to stderr, modifying /usr/share/dbus-1/services/indicator-datetime.service to look like this http://paste.ubuntu.com/809316/ might give you some clues [03:58] litropy: seems like there should be a better way, but this works, it should write a log to /tmp/indicator-datetime-*.log [04:01] hmm ... I'll spend the extra $11 for more functionality. I like what he's got going, though. [04:01] whoops, wrong chan [04:01] trism, gimme a sec. [04:08] trism, processing ... [04:20] trism, I'm gonna have to use vim ... this is horrible. [04:20] litropy: why is that? [04:21] the whole gui is frozen, except for my cursor. so, I'm ctrl+alt+f1'ing it. [04:22] lol 5 second delay in typing characters [04:23] k, vi, then ... [04:24] got it open. entering your mod [04:44] Either I don't understand vi, or it's being really weird. Seems like both. My cursor won't go past the end of a line, so when I carriage-return, the last character goes to the next line. Furthermore, backspace ... just puts the cursor back a space.

[05:04] the file hit 1MB not a minute after boot. [05:07] trism, reboot wipes /tmp, right? [05:08] litropy: yes [05:10] thanks. [05:18] trism, It's doing the same thing even when I set time to Manual. [05:24] litropy: you should definitely file a bug with indicator-datetime, (or maybe with one of the geoclue packages) with the information you found, it shouldn't be sending so many address-provider-changed events === AndrewMC is now known as Guest29216 [05:46] trism, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-datetime/+bug/918546 [05:46] Ubuntu bug 918546 in indicator-datetime (Ubuntu) "Many address-provider-changed events per minute, maxing CPU" [Undecided,New] [05:51] :shrug: now we wait. [05:52] whats up with the 64 bit flash plugin atm? [07:17] Hi, is there any option for unity alt+tab switcher to NOT group similar windows? It's a real pain to switch between 2 gedit windows with the keyboard... [07:17] I press alt+tab once to have the windows list, then 10 times to cycle between my other windows, then wait 2 seconds in the gedit button so that the 2 gedit window previews are shown, and then try to read the thumbnail to decide which is the gedit window I'm in and which one is the other I want to get to. [07:19] I installed the compizconfig-settings-manager and saw some options for the unity switcher there, but there was no option to never group similar windows [07:21] alt ` (to the left of 1) [07:22] or alt ² [07:22] if you're belgian/french [07:23] but if you're french you would've surrendered before you got the opportunity to do that [07:23] *bdom tish* [07:29] at least they're not out fighting wars for oil :p [07:29] *bdom tish* [07:50] what? i thought it was the french that bombed libya? [07:51] oh okay and US and UK ;) [07:51] How come that traceroute6 is installed by default but not traceroute? [07:53] traceroute6 is part of iputils-tracepath [07:54] traceroute is part of traceroute [07:54] at least on my system anyway (precise) [07:54] Ian_Corne: thanks we contined with snadge in #ayatana. No, fortunately no french kbd layout, I'd get lost with that :) [11:26] hi all, my system updated the new lightdm, the icon for changing session disapear. how do i choose ubuntu or ubuntu2d [11:27] _ [11:27] ? [11:30] i'm not alone :) just saw someone with the same problem on the forums, no reply :( [11:48] hello all, has anyone else been dropped down to unity-2d since the latest update about 2 days ago? Running with the nouveau driver [12:53] HI all === Guest29216 is now known as AndrewMC === JanC_ is now known as JanC === arand_ is now known as arand [17:34] Hi, all. I filed the folllowing bug report last night. Essentially, I'm looking for a stop-gap solution in the mean time. This might be either fooling indicator-datetime or geoclue into thinking everything is okay. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-datetime/+bug/918546 [17:34] Ubuntu bug 918546 in indicator-datetime (Ubuntu) "Many address-provider-changed events per minute, maxing CPU" [Undecided,New] [17:38] I also have sore biceps, and am wondering if there's anything I can install to speed up the healing process. === yofel_ is now known as yofel [17:48] litropy: out of curiosity, you don't have any other geoclue providers installed other then geoclue-ubuntu-geoip right? [18:36] trism, how do I check? [18:40] litropy: dpkg -l '*geoclue*' [18:40] geoclue [18:40] geoclue-provider [18:41] geoclue-ubuntu-geoi [18:41] geoclue-yahoo [18:41] libgeoclue0 [18:41] end [18:42] litropy: are both geoclue-yahoo and geoclue-ubuntu-geoip ii? [18:43] litropy: if so you should try uninstalling geoclue-yahoo, maybe there is some conflict between the two [18:44] ii, un, un, ii, ii, respectively. So that's a negative. [18:46] litropy: oh so only geoclue-yahoo is installed? [18:46] trism, yes [18:48] trism, try installing geoip? maybe that's what's up ... [18:48] litropy: in that case I would install geoclue-ubuntu-geoip and then uninstall geoclue-yahoo and see what happens (likewise you could try geoclue-manual since it seems like that shouldn't send any updates without user interaction) [18:48] litropy: but I would try the ubuntu one first, since that seems to be the default in a precise install [18:54] trism, will do today and report back. Thanks for your help [18:57] does anyone here have an x-fi titanium hd? [18:58] trism, I went ahead and did it. I even left geoclue-yahoo in, and now everthing is golden. [18:59] RambJoe, why , what's the problem ? [18:59] trism, it seems when I upgraded to 12.04, geoclue-geoip wasn't tied into indicator-datetime as a dependency. [19:00] I've commented out your dbus mod for duture use. Thanks again for all your help. [19:00] future* [19:02] well i see ubuntu 12.04 now supports it [19:02] but i can't select "headphone" as the connector [19:02] so i cant actually get any sound out of it [19:02] RambJoe, pulseaudio installed? [19:03] this is pretty much a stock install atm [19:03] pulseaudio is already the newest version. [19:05] so yeah its installed, should it be? [19:05] have you setup alsamixer , RambJoe , all ctrls to 90% minimum, no M in any boxes [19:05] i'll do that now [19:06] RambJoe, some cards don't need pulseaudio, and can run everything with just alsa but i'm not familiar with yours so [19:07] one of the boxes has "MM" [19:07] not sure if you need pulse or not [19:07] MM means it's muted , use the M key to unmute [19:09] still nothing D: [19:09] its weird though because in the sound settings where you select the connector [19:10] when ever i select Analogue Output / Headphones 1 or 2 [19:10] when ever i like drag the volume bar or do anythig, it goes back to Analogue Output / Speaker [19:12] RambJoe, I have to go for a while , check this http://www.piotrkrzyzek.com/solved-creative-x-fi-titanium-ctxfi-on-ubuntu-11-10/ [19:12] BBL [19:12] ok, thanks for the help :) [19:57] Anyone having a problem on the latest precise updates? My ati video is acting really weird now.. [19:57] The desktop is unusuable unless I hookup a second screen... [20:02] Lively crowd today. [20:17] Hello, I'm wondering if there is a possibility that the fact that I get a Kernel Panic on startup when booting just the liveCD of Ubuntu 12.4 could be related to hardware, or if it's a bug, and if it's a bug where I would check on whether it was fixed. [20:34] c_smith, how old is the live-cd and is it from a daily build more than 2 weeks old ? [20:38] Seriously? No one having problems with Unity and ATI Radeon and the latest updates? [20:38] it was about a week ago or more, yeah [20:39] downloading a new ISO to test to see if this bug has been fixed. [20:39] sorry for the late response, [20:44] c_smith, yeah I had that problem as well, that'e why I asked ...it was 2 weeks or so ago [20:44] ok [20:45] so I'll be testing in a few minutes, want me to let you know the results? [20:52] c_smith, sure :) [20:52] k [21:01] In the latest updates.... if I set gnome-terminal background to solid, it's still transparent. [21:37] BluesKaj, I rebooted and tried to install, didn't get to the installer, threw me a Kernel Panic before it finished booting. [21:39] c_smith, odd, I did a clean install to / about 5days ago off a daily build live cd and the install went without a hitch ...ok guys we need some help here , any ideas ? [21:40] could it be something to do with my hardware? [21:40] must be, as I have tested it in Virtualbox before. [21:41] and it installs in Virtualbox. [21:42] c_smith, is this ubuntu or kubuntu or...? [21:43] Ubuntu, not Kubuntu or Xubuntu or Lubuntu, just regular Ubuntu [21:43] ok [21:45] c_smith, from here ? http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ [21:46] yup [21:47] is the pc really new or over 5 yrs old ? [21:50] let me check when it was made, it's a Compaq Presario CQ60-420US [21:51] it's around 3 years old. [21:51] hmm, should be fine [21:52] Welp... Anyone running an ATI card + catalyst on the latest updates? [21:52] Mine went to hell after the latest updates. :| [21:53] I als have compaq presario with kubuntu 12.04 on , the only problem it has is it forgets to load the wirelss mouse driver every 2 boot ...dunno why , it's very strange [21:53] O_o [21:54] c_smith, btw it's 6 yrs old [21:54] ah, k [21:54] yours isn't a CQ60-420US, is it? [21:55] strange that the kernal panic problem is still around tho [21:55] c_smith, no it's SX1734 [21:56] ah, k [21:56] it is. [21:56] and it seems to be associated with certain hardware, as the Ubuntu Oregon team lead has been running 12.04 without a hitch, [22:01] c_smith, can you get to a tty , ctl+alt+f1 , login then update and upgrade? [22:02] hmmmm, Bkerensa (the Ubuntu Oregon Team Lead) recommeneded something similar, just wish I had the IRC log for the command. [22:03] he told me a set of commands to upgrade. [22:04] c_smith: it should be on http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/ [22:04] but the Ubuntu 12.04 upgrade won't work until I install Ubuntu 11.04 (trying a different distro for a review. [22:04] sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade , c_smith [22:05] problem with using those IRC logs are that it was on the #ubuntu-us-or channel. [22:05] that should be logged there too [22:06] yeah -us-or is logged there [22:06] c_smith, run those commands after logging in to the TTY [22:07] c_smith: http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2012/01/19/%23ubuntu-us-or.html that is logged too.... [22:07] it'll only work, like I said, once I install ubuntu, running OpenSUSE for a few to do a review. [22:07] yeah, I found the log for that channel for 11/07/2011 [22:09] meh, I'm asking Bkerensa what the command was for getting the proper repos hoping he is awake. [22:32] going to install Ubuntu 11.10 and upgrade right after installing (no updates) and see how that goes. === chrisccoulson_ is now known as chrisccoulson [22:51] Is anyone else bothered by the smaller buttons in the latest Ambiance/Radiance?
