Mithrandirmjg59: no, not yet.12:55
jdub<mjg59> ... and WHY NOT?12:55
theantixsanitario, apci sleep mode12:56
robertjmjg59: you mean using gnome keyring?12:56
mjg59jdub: Dude, you entirely overstate my antagonism towards fellow humans12:56
mjg59robertj: Uh, that wasn't what I was thinking of, but I've never actually looked at gnome-keyring12:56
Mithrandirjdub: because my time is not unlimited. :)12:56
mjg59What I want is for my GPG key to be in an encrypted filesystem on a USB stick12:56
sanitariotheantix: standby or mem? the only one working for me is mem, and that doesn't suspend half as much as it should. If I leave it over night without AC, the battery runs out. 12:57
mjg59Then when I plug that in, a dbus event prods something that pops up a window and asks for the keyphrase12:57
_Hiro_I have the 2.6.8.1-2-686-smp kernel, how do I get the kernel headers for it? :|12:57
robertjit should just request it via gnome keyring and have keyring prompt if unknown12:58
sanitario_Hiro_: apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.8.1-2-686-smp12:58
_Hiro_ah thx a lot12:58
theantixsanitario, I just do a "echo 3 > /proc/acpi/sleep" -- if there is a better way than that it's news to me12:58
_Hiro_it didn't turn up with apt-cache12:58
mjg59theantix: That's correct12:59
mjg59theantix: The normal problem is that one of your pieces of hardware has failed to suspend - check dmesg to see if it says something like that12:59
sanitariotheantix: you could do "echo mem > /sys/power/state" but I can't remember if 3 is standby or mem... 01:00

robertjor that gvm does it all01:01
mjg59theantix: The "right" way of doing it is to modify the contents of /etc/acpi01:01
Mithrandirrobertj: g-v-m has no way to set up devmapper partitions01:01
Mithrandirrobertj: that needs to be done as root01:01
jdubmjg59: when we get consistent/configurable device naming and mount points01:01
mjg59Then you can have a script that removes modules and ejects PCMCIA cards before suspending01:01
theantixmjg59, cool, thanks for the tip!  much appreciated01:01

mjg59At the moment I plug it in and it mounts it at /media/usbstick (after I forced it to pay attention to device labels. The default Debian fstab update system isn't very smart)01:03

robertjI mean that in a very literal way, not as in a haughty "it would be stupid to implement it this way"01:03
sanitario_Hiro_: no prob01:03
Mithrandirjdub: hal, possibly, yes.  But then it needs a small bit of love, I guess.. you can extend the things it broadcasts over the dbus without breaking anything, right?01:04
jdubMithrandir: yeah01:04
jdubMithrandir: but you probably wouldn't have to01:05
jdubyou'd just add some key that says "this is an encrypted block device"01:05
jdubso a policy mounter would know about it01:05
jduband do all the funky stuff in pmount, probably01:05
Mithrandirjdub: the mounter would need to know keysize, cipher type and such as well, though01:06
jdubcan you detect that from the partition itself?01:06
sanitariomjg59: So what would you say is the best way to do suspend / hibernation in ubuntu today? On say, a Thinkpad T40 ;) 01:06

mjg59Firstly, get echo -n 3 >/proc/acpi/sleep to work01:09

mjg59Then you need to fix wakeup01:09
=== theantix [~ryan@80.198.novustelecom.net] has joined #ubuntu
mjg59To make wakeup work, you need to pass "acpi_sleep=s3_mode noapic" to the kernel01:10
robertjDoes the gnome registry support network backends?01:10
mjg59robertj: It supports it, but as far as I know nobody has written one01:10

robertjOS X's slurping of settings on login works pretty well01:11
robertjeven though tis not super nifty01:11
mjg59Actually, that's not entirely true. Someone wrote a gconf backend that used mail/.01:11

robertjBulk adding principles would be okay if I can take their new keys and stick em in the directory and have the os x clients magically work01:38
housetieraim1159, you can use "dpkg-reconfigure locales" to generate all the locales you wish to use01:39
housetieraim1159, but I have to think some more about how to make them default01:40
aim1159housetier: I know about this. and I could install the locale and configure /etc/environment and install console-cyrillic (the package wich most russian/ukranian/bellarusian users use).01:40

tvon|X31Hey, I saw a blog entry somewhere about a week ago about someone who was running Ubuntu and they mentioned the laptop power management.03:09

xbsdI don't get it, /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 seems to identify my graphic devices correctly, so why they do not appear in Gbome's Device Manager? 03:10

xbsddalderman, Ok, then how can I change my screen resolution? I'm stuck with a 640x480 at 60Hz and I can't change it in Gnome03:20
daldermanxbsd, there are a few ways, most people just edit their XF86Config-4, but that can be a bit hairy03:22
xbsddalderman, no, that's exactly what I was saying. XF86Config-4 is correct, everything is identified perfectly there03:23

toyowheelinno to access the mounted drive05:13
theantixthat05:13

wm_eddieFrom the looks of what they have so far, they are thinking about making applets and notification area icons very similar, in fact probably making all applets notification area programs.07:00

wm_eddiehttp://www.livejournal.com/users/davyd/118545.html07:02
joemthey aren't making applets notification area progs07:02
joempeople were upset that there were to many notification area programs that should have been applets07:03
joemso there is a notification area spec now07:03
joemI don't know if the whole panel being a notify area would work very well07:04
wm_eddieYou are probably right.07:06
punkasswell i dont know much about all this stuff...but i want to start to hack together a wifi applet07:06
wm_eddieisn't there a wifi applet?07:06
punkasssort off07:06
punkassof*07:06
punkassbut not what i want07:06
punkassive found howtos for 2.4 just not 2.6/2.807:07
wm_eddieahh, whell grab the source code of the wifi applet and extend it.07:07
joemthere are a few wifi applets07:07
joemnetapplet is the new one from novel07:07
punkassyeah i was just starting to look at it?07:07
punkassoh yeah?07:07
joemthat one is actually a notification app07:07
joemhttp://metawire.org/~joem/images/netapplet.png07:07
joemI know some guys at redhat are working on network manager07:08
punkasshmm yeah that looks more like what i want to do07:08
joemsort of like an applet version of that07:08
wm_eddieinteresting I have to download that next time I'm at my laptop07:09
wm_eddiebut now I really need to sleep...07:09
punkassi want an applet that will scan wifi and notify when one is found, then be able to click it and enter WEP etc and connect 07:09
wm_eddiethat would be awesome!07:09
wm_eddieI swich a lot from Pitt's wifi to panera's wifi.07:10
wm_eddieI made a script to switch between the two...07:10
wm_eddieall it does is change the essid and removes the wep key.07:11
theantixI got netapplet working on ubuntu, but it still relies on the g-s-t network tool that doesn't have the ability to set the essid and key07:12
wm_eddie:(07:12
wm_eddieI'll hack it to use my scripts!07:13
theantixif you want to see it, grab the source and the patch from the debian package, and compile it... I'm afraid it's not all that useful though :-/07:13
punkasswell that was my plan...but i havent a clue what i am doing so it should be interesting07:13
wm_eddiewhat language is it in? c#?07:13
theantixnot sure, I didn't check07:14
theantix./configure; make; make install ;-)07:14

punkasshmm can figure out how the wireless-C.omf finds the exectuables for the applet07:20
punkasscan't*07:21
joemthe way it was modified for gentoo was when you switch between connections, it uses their init scripts to bring the connections up and down07:21
theantixah, so it's not as useful for switchign between different wireless networks?07:21
joemno it does, it uses the wireless tools package to switch07:22
