[00:09] <xubuntu375> Hi. I'm currently using a fresh Xubuntu 12.04 installation. I'm using the "Places" applet for the panel but for some reason the "Recent Documents" menu item there always stays empty?
[00:12] <Chad__> Right click the applet, select properties, then check "Show recent documents"
[00:14] <xubuntu375> It's checked. The thing is the menu item "Recent Documents" is there in the applet but when I open any files they don't get listed.
[00:15] <Chad__> Do the files still exist?
[00:16] <xubuntu375> yes.
[00:18] <xubuntu375> I've also just realized the file .local/share/recently
[00:18] <xubuntu375> ups, sorry, typed too fast.
[00:19] <xubuntu375> I've also just realized the file .local/share/recently-used.xbel isn't updated when opening files.
[00:20] <xubuntu375> my user account got read and write access to it.
[00:21] <Chad__> Hmm. Maybe delete the file and see if it repopulates. I honestly don't know.
[00:22] <xubuntu375> already tried that - didn't help. anyway thank's for your time.
[00:27] <Chad__> Sorry I couldn't be of more help. I'll keep looking for something.
[00:38] <Zelouille> Does someone use a netbook or keyboard without CapsLock LED ? What i found are applets for gnome-panel.
[00:44] <drc> Maybe you're looking for this?  http://goodies.xfce.org/projects/panel-plugins/xfce4-kbdleds-plugin
[01:24] <rhin0> Zelouille: I found the solution for that
[01:25] <rhin0> the best one
[01:25] <rhin0> brb
[01:25] <rhin0> will fetch the link
[01:25] <rhin0> http://www.webupd8.org/2010/07/indicator-keylock-displays-keyboard.html
[01:26] <rhin0> essentially: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tsbarnes/indicator-keylock && sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install indicator-keylock
[01:26] <rhin0> gives you a nice caps lock applet
[01:26] <rhin0> sudo apt-get install indicator-keylock
[01:26] <rhin0> its on that url anyway
[01:27] <rhin0> thats for xfce4 .. caps lock indicator applet
[01:45] <Zelouille> rhin0: isn't that for gnome-panel ? (I use xfce4-panel)
[01:46] <rhin0> i have it installed on xfce4 - that works on xubuntu 10.04 here
[01:46] <Zelouille> rhin0: also, it's not very clear... Do you have to clic on the applet to see the state of the... "LEDs" ?
[01:46] <rhin0> its clear
[01:47] <rhin0> im not sure - if it has scroll lock
[01:47] <rhin0> num lock
[01:47] <rhin0> caps lock was all I needed
[01:47] <Zelouille> mmh.. ok, it display the Caps lock all the time, and if you click on it, you see the state of the others locks, right ?
[01:48] <rhin0> i dont know - not on that machine
[01:48] <rhin0> try it .. apt-get remove will remove
[01:48] <rhin0> install installl (etc) the commands are on the url
[01:49] <Zelouille> i'm gonna test that in virtualbox.
[01:49] <Zelouille> yup thanks :)
[01:51] <rhin0> np
[01:52] <Zelouille> for now i have loosy hacked a script that pop up notification when you press CapsLock or NumLock... It worked great on another computer, but not really on this one.
[01:54] <rhin0> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1867007  I addressed it here a while back
[01:54] <rhin0> thats where I got the url above from
[01:54] <rhin0> theres another solution there too
[02:03] <Zelouille> oh right, the first link is an indicator, not an applet, so it works on xfce. Cool :)
[02:04] <Zelouille> It behaves a bit strangely on the VM (i had to hold CapsLock to si the "CapsLock on"). But i think it's because Virtual box.
[02:42] <Zelouille> rhin0: works great on the netbook. Thanks for your help.
[03:02] <MrDyne> Is there a free Cpanel like web interface for ubuntu that can deal with e-mail, dns, ftp, lamp, domains, etc.
[03:25] <Fudge> maybe webmin

[18:01] <Zelouille> Catbuntu, you probably know it, but you may have to enable it in nvidia-settings (there are two "Sync to Vblank" checkbox).
[18:02] <Catbuntu> I have it checked on nvidia-settings, at least one of them.
[18:15] <Catbuntu> huh, where's the other Sync to vBlank checkbox?

[00:13] <rick_h_> brousch: sorry, met up with krondor and ended up not going that far.
[00:14] <rick_h_> brousch: the issue there is that I want to try to get 3.3 working side by side. I'll tinker with it some more
[00:14] <rick_h_> snap-l: it's a local place. L.A. Cafe
[00:14] <brousch> Well that just gives you the newest pip and virtualenv. You can still install a 2.7 cirtualenv
[00:23] <rick_h_> hmm, 3.3 seems to have some virtualenv fail
[00:24] <rick_h_> http://paste.mitechie.com/show/937/
[00:35] <brousch> http://paste.mitechie.com/show/939/
[01:03] <rick_h_> well better with my own compiled python http://paste.mitechie.com/show/940/
[01:03] <rick_h_> 3.3.1 vs 3.3.0
[01:12] <rick_h_> there we go, redid it with py3.3.1 compiled, did distribute-setup.py and then easy_install pip and all good
[02:06] <jjesse-home_> everyone having fun tohgit?
[02:07] <rick_h_> party party
[13:16] <snap-l> morning
[13:39] <rick_h_> morning
[13:40] <rick_h_> so today, after switching the mifi to 4g only mode holding an ok connection at starbucks it seems.
[13:40] <rick_h_> actually /me goes to run speedtest
[13:43] <rick_h_> wow, actually it's all over the map. the speedtest starts at over 12MB, then nadda, then 5, then nadda
[13:43] <rick_h_> one run avg'd 1MB/s since it hung for half the test
[13:43] <rick_h_> so guess life isn't all peachy
[14:47] <snap-l> lovely
[14:47] <rick_h_> all good
[14:48] <snap-l> cool
[14:48] <snap-l> we are off to meijer
[14:48] <snap-l> woo woo
[14:48] <rick_h_> party one
[14:48] <rick_h_> on
[14:48] <rick_h_> such that it is


[00:04] <xxtjaxx_> well ok then ... Those sites for the individiual projects should definitely be designed for the sake of the web application but rather IMHO for the sake of the project. and to my way of thinking the prime goal of a project website is getting the source of the projets application rather than stroking itself for the sake of looking good you know what I mean? If I as a USER want to have a look at an application Launchpad is in the way
[00:04] <xxtjaxx_> _most of the time_ and doesnt allow me get what I want it is terrible and annoying
[00:16] <bdrung> hi, why can't i change the status of a merge request (to merged)?
[00:17] <bdrung> for example: https://code.launchpad.net/~lfaraone/ubuntu/jaunty/etoys/lp301190/+merge/23538
[00:29] <beuno> bdrung, I would guess permissions
[00:30] <bdrung> beuno: i should have the access permission for the target branch
[00:30] <bdrung> bencer: i have 14 branched that i want to mark as merged
[02:44] <sproaty> I just found my program under https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/whyteboard - does this mean it'll be available in an upcoming release?
[06:20] <arand> Are builds kept for ~7days after being superseeded in PPA:s as far as being downloadable and filling up the size limit goes?
[06:25] <lifeless> I'm fairly sure they are not kept at all after being superseded
[07:36] <wgrant> arand: They're kept for 24 hours on ppa.launchpad.net. After that time they should no longer count towards your quota, and after a week they will normally not be downloadable from the web UI.
[16:34] <j78duip0> anybody here, who can help me with my launchpad account???
[16:58] <xxtjaxx> are there any proper release tarballs of rosetta or Launchpad I could aquire from somewhere?
[17:53] <maxb> xxtjaxx: No such thing exists. Launchpad isn't even packaged such that people other than Canonical can run it
[18:21] <Laibsch> a user and a team can have PPA, but a project cannot.  Correct?
[18:26] <maxb> correct
[20:17] <Laibsch> maxb: thanks


[15:26] <BrianHechinger[m> Just decided to look into pipewire out of curiosity. No ffado support. 😭
[15:41] <tarrasque[m]> > Studio-controls is meant to replace cadence and if there are features you find missing you are welcome to  ask for those features on the studio-controls upstream site on github.
[15:41] <tarrasque[m]> Studio Controls was one of the defining factors in my tentative to switch to Ubuntu studio. Unfortunately, they do not work. Doesn't seem able to start Jack. I found no logs, no serious documentation about the tools. I also opened an Ask Ubuntu question with no answer till now.
[15:45] <Eickmeyer> tarrasque[m]: Studio Controls is an upstream project and not Ubuntu Studio exclusive. The person that asked you to post on the upstream site was the developer himself.
[15:46] <tarrasque[m]> Ok. Could you please explain to me what's an "upstream site" and how to post there?
[15:48] <Eickmeyer> tarrasque[m]: Go to https://github.com/ovenwerks/studio-controls/issues. It's pretty self-explanatory.
[15:48] <Eickmeyer> You've been given that link more than once.
[15:51] <tarrasque[m]> Really? It's the first time I use this Matrix chat app and i might have missed, but all I see in the visible history are referrals to this "upstream site", but no link.
[15:53] <Eickmeyer> Ok, I guess that's true, but regardless, there's the link. :)
[15:54] <Eickmeyer> (I thought somebody linked it for you)
[15:57] <tarrasque[m]> Thank you
[16:19] <tarrasque[m]> I opened a ticket. Unfortunately I don't have much else to say except "it does nothing" because the tool does not show any popup message and I don't know where it logs if it does.
[16:24] <Eickmeyer> OvenWerks will likely guide you through that.
[18:09] <OvenWerks> tarrasque[m]: You probably have email ;) but, the first thing to try with any software is to make sure you have the latest version.
[18:10] <OvenWerks> tarrasque[m]: Always include the version of the software you are using in a bug report so the developer knows if this is a bug that has already been fixed.
[18:12] <OvenWerks> tarrasque[m]: in ubuntustudio there is a small app called ubuntustudio-installer. Running that and selecting "Enable Backports PPA".
[18:14] <OvenWerks> tarrasque[m]: then do a standard software updates using Discover (you may have to click on the updates button in the lower left)
[18:21] <OvenWerks> tarrasque[m]: if you are already running studio-controls 2.3.0 then please set your logging level (in system tweaks) to extra, then restart jack. Then attach ~/.log/autojack.log and (if it exists) ~/.log/autojack.log.1 These two files can put in one zip file if you prefer.
[20:56] <tarrasque[m]> > tarrasque: Always include the version of the software you are using in a bug report so the developer knows if this is a bug that has already been fixed.
[20:56] <tarrasque[m]> you're right. I was writing from my work pc so I didn't ave that info at the time. Studio controls is version 2.2.8
[20:58] <tarrasque[m]> afret enabling backports it's updating it to 2.3.0
[20:59] <BrianHechinger[m> OvenWerks: so I've been looking into the whole FireWire pipewire thing. Looks like they aren't going to be using ffado? This could be bad for us. 😭
[21:53] <OvenWerks> BrianHechinger[m: the offcial line is that FW is supported in ALSA. I supose we could bug the ALSA guys with bug reports...
[21:55] <OvenWerks> BrianHechinger[m: however, there may be any number of other reasons to continue to use JACK as the sound server. So I will be looking into user defined pw-jack bridging. I suspect this is already possible but that the parameters used to start that module are less than well understood.
[22:13] <BrianHechinger[m> Yeah, unless we get the ALSA guys to fix all the firewire issues we don't have a choice but to stick with JACK. It's a real shame. PipeWire really does look nice.
[22:14] <BrianHechinger[m> The crappy part is from what I read the FFADO guys basically offered to do whatever it would take to get it working with PipeWire but the PW guys never responded. :(
[22:27] <OvenWerks> BrianHechinger[m: I think they don't want to support jack backends of any sort. Supporting one means requests to support all.
[22:30] <BrianHechinger[m> If the backends want to do the work I don't see the problem. I guess our best bet is to just harass the ALSA guys if we ever hope to be able to use PipeWire. Or switch to USB! (never)
[22:31] <OvenWerks> BrianHechinger[m: The solution, I think, is to learn how to set up jack as a device in PW.
[22:35] <BrianHechinger[m> That sounds a tad convoluted, no?

[16:09] <bobweaver> Hell0 yeehi1
[16:10] <bobweaver> so what is going on with your audio ?
[16:14] <yeehi> sound goes for 30 seconds, but video only for 20
[16:14] <yeehi> sorry bobweaver - i lost my connection
[16:14] <yeehi> there is no lip synch
[16:15] <bobweaver> yeehi,  can you expain in detail what yu are trying to do
[16:15] <yeehi> sure
[16:15] <bobweaver> like I am trying to do X and this is what I tried X
[16:15] <bobweaver> thanks
[16:15] <yeehi> I am just trying to make a short audio-video recording to check my hardware
[16:15] <yeehi> i create an avi file using my laptop webcam / mic
[16:16] <yeehi> the avi file is created - when i play it, the audio and video is out of synch
[16:16] <yeehi> it should be in synch!
[16:16] <bobweaver> ahh what did you use to record ?
[16:16] <yeehi> software?
[16:16] <bobweaver> yea
[16:17] <yeehi> At the moment I am using the software that came with this webcam (in windows) it is BisonCap, for the BisonCam NB Pro webcam
[16:18] <bobweaver> I am sorry yeehi  but I have no clue how to use windows :( never got over that thing "you have to go to Start to shutdown"
[16:18] <yeehi> It is a 2 Mega pixel webcam thatn can do 15 fps
[16:18] <yeehi> haha!
[16:18] <bobweaver> yeehi,  there is a #windows   channel though
[16:19] <yeehi> oh - i will ask there too - good idea, bobweaver :)
[16:19] <yeehi> Thanks!
[16:19] <bobweaver> but yeah I have not used windows sense 2003
[16:20] <bobweaver> tried to use the other day for playing with unity-3d but I could not take it and shut it down
[16:23] <bobweaver> yeehi,  you know what I just thought of though there is the thing in VLC that lets you synch stuff up
[16:23] <bobweaver> and I dont know if openshot works with windows
[16:24] <bobweaver> yeehi,  http://imagebin.org/230533
[16:34] <yeehi> Thanks bobweaver i found that vlc synch place but though i was able to adjust the audio setting, it didn't make an impact on the recording
[16:37] <yeehi> i don't know why changing the synch settings effected no change
[17:56] <robertan1> I have a problem
[17:57] <robertan1> I have ubuntu 12.04.1 from a dvd
[17:58] <robertan1> when i install with wubi, it downloads it. I have the files in the same directory
[18:00] <wilee-nilee> robertan1, Wubi is installed now using the download with its loader the dvd does not have the setup to install, if I understand your methodology here.  AS well the wubi install is a tryout except for thise with no other choice.
[18:00] <wilee-nilee> those*
[18:01] <robertan1> ok
[18:01] <wilee-nilee> not sure how helpful that was but we in general want you to have use of ubuntu if needed. ;)
