print problems with Cadsoft Eagle & Intrepid
Hi guys I upgraded to intrepid a few weeks ago, and no real major problems. Last night I went to print out a printed circuit board and found I can no longer print with Cadsoft Eagle. The print dialog box on this app shows no printer, just greyed out. The machine is a dual athlon 64 bit, plenty of RAM, and the printer is an Epson R285. I've tried deinstalling all the gutenprint drivers, and CUPS. I can print normally from Gimp and other graphics apps, all at the same resolution 2880 x 2880. I've been installing updates as they occur so the machine is upto date with intrepid. Something has changed in the last week or so. Has anyone seen anything like this or ideas on fixing it, Its fairly urgent as its all tied up with my work.

Re: help
since hardy (8.04) there is a graphical user interface for DSL/pppoe connections, see the menu "System/Administration/Network": - select "Point to point connection" and start "Properties" dialog - choose "Connection type" as "PPPoE" and configure your connection...

Re: Pulseaudio/Jack in Ubuntu Hardy
Hey, "The current situation is bad for everybody: noobs have to configure jackd, but advanced users configure it anyway." -> It is not bad for advanced users, since they have to configure their hardware anyway. And I wouldn't say it is bad for noobs, because it depends what is the aim of a noob. If its aim is to work like advanced users, they have to learn a bit. For me, the problem is more for people looking for a solution working out of the box, and they will use it 5min per month. These users are not the priority at the moment. And, most important, there is applications for them available, working out of the box, like Jokosher wich is an equivalent of GarageBand. What I don't understand is: - whether the -n 3 option would work for every standard card or if some absolutely require -n 2 -> Yes, some sound cards really need 2, and some really need 3. As we don't own all the sound card of the world, it will be very difficult to test them, make a database, and reprogram a jack gui or daemon wich would auto detect and auto configure the sound card for this parameter. And it means that people will still have to manually set up latency, sample frequency, etc... So why auto detect period/buffer ? a simple test and it is ok. - whether going though pulseaudio is really an issue concerning performance (I mean, only for base users) -> For real time users, it is a true problem of performances. It means that the minimum latency will be the Pulse Audio latency, wich is higher than 10ms, plus adding a necessary Jack latency. So impossible, even for a newbie, to record several tracks one after one. Furthermore, you had a step more from applications to the sound card, wich means more CPU usage, and so less for the effects and processings of the sound, the hard disk access, etc... You are focused on Ardour, Ardour, Ardour, Ardour... perhaps would you check if another application would fit better to your need. Ardour is NOT at all intended for musical noobs... It is intended for serious music workers, even if they are hobbyist like me and a lot of people, in order to make production or pre-production record and mixes. Don't forget that when one want a true good quality record, the better is to go in a true professional recording studio. Cheap sessions are possible, starting at 200 € / day. Of course if you don't go to Abbey Road or Electric Ladyland, but in a local small studio working for radios, etc. Once again, look at applications: Jokosher, Muse, Rosegarden. Anyone involved in Ubuntu, Ubuntu Studio, Ardour, Alsa, etc... try to do his/her best in order that everything work as simply as possible. First of all, the aim is that the most hardware as possible is compatible and work out of the box. Second, that applications are packaged and distributed in the latest release as possible. And third, once a base is distributed, a lot of work is done in order to simplify the configuration, etc... Perhaps instead of complaining, you can participate. Or if you are not happy with Ubuntu and Ubuntu Studio, wich are a free distributions, please consider buying a RedHat. I am pretty sure everything is working out of the box for your need. Of course: Lennart Pottering, the creator of Pulse Audio, is now working for them. But take care of that : the aim of Lennart is that Pulse Audio would replace any audio server, including Jack. However, it is not possible at the moment, and I don't think it will be possible for softwares like Ardour, due to the Pulse Audio architecture: too much different from Jack. Last point but not least, if you own a firewire sound card, the only to use it is to work with Jack. No other sound server can run the Freebob driver at the moment. And you still have to configure everything for that kind of hardware. So, in order to close and conclude this non productive chat (imho), I would say that if you are so smart about telling that it is not working as YOU want, please, design or create the good solution. Maybe, just compile and create the packages of the Pulse Audio to Jack, and the Jack to Pulse Audio plugins. Perhaps it would be a start of solution. But keep in mind that it will not solve everything.

How to upgrade libnss-ldap on dapper 6.06 LTS
Hello List, how do i best upgrade libnss-ldap from dapper (libnss-ldap 238-1.1ubuntu1) to libnss-ldap version >= v245? Without ending up in a dependency disaster, of course ;) I tried to use the source package from hardy, but then i run into dependecny problems with packages that do not exist on dapper (ldap-auth-config for example) How would you upgrade libnss-ldap in my case?

I'm not sure if you all come to ubuntuforums or not. We actually have several sub-forums for development. The dev sub-forums gets archived (ie closed for posting) after the version gets released. Currently, its "Development (Gutsy Gibbon)" [1]. A new one will be created when the first +1 snapshot is out. In addition, there are two sections, Gutsy Gibbon Idea Pool [2] and Dev Link Forum [3]. I think the devel-discuss mailing list could be promoted in these UF sub-forums, and more relationships established between ml and forums, so that everyone, and the +1 release, benefit. Any thoughts? Cheers, Isabelle.
