| tekteen | Hi guys. Anyone know how ubuntu figures out ide/sata drives are hard drives and which are cdroms. I am creating a toolkit that partitions a hd. | 01:38 |
| sladen | they're all SCSI now ;-) Except for PCMCIA card readers, which are IDE | 01:40 |
| tekteen | I need to figure out what devs are hds | 01:40 |
| slangasek | tekteen: /sys | 01:40 |
| tekteen | thanks | 01:40 |
| tekteen | also I have a kind of noob question about launchpad | 01:41 |
| tekteen | can you submit a blueprint if you have no Idea how it would be done? | 01:41 |
| tekteen | as a suggestion. | 01:42 |
| slangasek | you can, but it's unlikely that someone will take notice of it | 01:42 |
| tekteen | ok | 01:42 |
| tekteen | tha | 01:42 |
| sladen | tekteen: /sys/class/scsi_device/* vs. /sys/class/scsi_disk/* | 01:42 |
| tekteen | thanks* | 01:42 |
| tekteen | ok | 01:42 |
| tekteen | thanks again | 01:42 |
| sladen | you can file a wishlist bugreport though | 01:43 |
| tekteen | ok | 01:43 |
| sladen | tekteen: remember, you have the source code: apt-get source debian-installer | 01:44 |
| slangasek | er? where did he say anything about the installer? | 01:52 |

| mekius | Anyone know if there are plans to include pata_via in future kernel releases? | 03:02 |

| mekius | ah :) | 03:05 |
| mekius | thx | 03:05 |
| _MMA_ | ;) | 03:05 |
| mekius | hopefully get an answer :) | 03:06 |
| _MMA_ | mekius: As its late in EU and east-cost of the states you might have to wait a bit. | 03:08 |
| mekius | ok, that's fine | 03:08 |
| mekius | just want to get everything out so when someone does answer it's not something like "More details" :P | 03:08 |
| slangasek | it's late in the west coast states too | 03:09 |
| mekius | 9pm here | 03:09 |
| mekius | not too late :) | 03:09 |
| slangasek | mekius: a little late for finding a kernel developer on a friday night | 03:14 |
| zul | most of them are our drinking | 03:14 |
| zul | or so they say... | 03:14 |
| mekius | slangasek: Well I just got time to diagnose the issue :) | 03:28 |
| mekius | slangasek: Obviously not looking for miracles here, in fact I didn't expect anything, but figured I'd give it a shot anyway :) | 03:28 |

| mekius | Anyone know of any good documentation on discover2 since Progeny is dead and took the docs with them it seems. | 08:52 |
| Burgundavia | mekius: are they not in a doc package? | 08:53 |
| mekius | not that I can find | 08:56 |
| mekius | At least nothing that actually explains things like how to specify options for a driver and such | 08:57 |
| mekius | I found a README | 08:57 |
| Burgundavia | mekius: you know that Ubuntu doesn't use discover2, right? | 08:58 |
| mekius | nvm | 08:58 |
| mekius | gOS does | 08:58 |
| mekius | does ubuntu still use discover1? | 08:58 |
| mekius | is there a reason why it still uses discover1? | 08:58 |
| persia | mekius: You may have found it :) | 08:58 |
| mekius | i found a guide.txt | 08:59 |
| Mithrandir | we're going to get rid of discover1 too, fwiw. | 08:59 |
| mekius | will take me some time to dig through though | 08:59 |
| Burgundavia | mekius: I suspect largely because discover is mostly superceded by udev, hal, etc. | 08:59 |
| mekius | Mithrandir: yeah, I thought I saw something like that | 08:59 |
| Burgundavia | the last piece, afaik, is the X driver stuff, which is going away soonish as well | 08:59 |
| mekius | Burgundavia: oh? | 08:59 |
| Burgundavia | mekius: what are you trying to do? | 08:59 |
| mekius | What is replacing that? | 08:59 |
| Burgundavia | upstream X stuff | 08:59 |
| Burgundavia | I really don't know more beyond that | 09:00 |
| mekius | Well, dealing with some VIA hardware and need to load the openchrome driver, but with certain options | 09:00 |
| mekius | I could have swore I saw some way to do this at some point | 09:00 |
| mekius | Can't find it now though | 09:00 |
| mekius | We'll see how good the X stuff is | 09:00 |
| mekius | ok, think i found it | 09:02 |

| tekteen | hi guys. anyone know how to run a interactive program on startup on the ubuntu live cd. When I run a script from rc.local it does not allow for user input. | 17:01 |
| === ember_ is now known as ember | ||
| sladen | tekteen: if it's a GUI app that needs the input, run it after X is up. If it's a console app, run it in gnome-terminal, again, after X is up | 17:21 |
| soren | Hmm... What's stdin connected to during startup? | 17:22 |
| soren | Nothing? | 17:22 |
| sladen | tekteen: pop something in the .xsession, or run a casper hook to inject something | 17:22 |
| sladen | /dev/tty ;-) | 17:22 |
| soren | So why does that not allow for user input? | 17:23 |
| tekteen | sladen: I want to start up a menu | 17:23 |
| tekteen | sladen: the menu is in bash | 17:23 |
| tekteen | sladen: if possible I want it to automatically go to terminal 2 and run the menu.sh | 17:24 |
| tekteen | sladen: I created the cd from scratch so x does not start automatically (I did that intentionally) | 17:26 |
| sladen | tekteen: remove splash and quiet from the kernel command line, that might/should work | 17:26 |
| tekteen | sladen: how would that help? | 17:27 |
| sladen | tekteen: you wouldn't be on vt8 with usplash stealing your input | 17:27 |
| tekteen | the splash is not stealing the input | 17:28 |
| sladen | tekteen: chvt and openvt will help you open a program on another console, if you really need to do that | 17:28 |
| tekteen | ok | 17:28 |
| tekteen | can I then move what the user sees to another console? | 17:29 |
| tekteen | I need to move the user to another console then run the menu in the console | 17:29 |
| sladen | tekteen: you can do two things (a) run programs on particular consoles (b) select which console the user is shown. If those two coincide then the user might see the request | 17:29 |
| tekteen | yep | 17:30 |
| tekteen | I have no idea how to do them | 17:30 |
| tekteen | sladen: thanks | 17:32 |
