| mdz | morning | 09:17 |
| Mithrandir | mdz: uhm, you're not supposed to say "morning" when it's morning here. :) | 09:18 |
| fabbione | mdz: hey | 09:18 |
| mdz | "morning" is the time when one appears on IRC | 09:18 |
| Mithrandir | well, true | 09:19 |
| mdz | fabbione: so, we seem to have inherited many of these file conflict bugs :-/ | 09:23 |
| fabbione | mdz: yes i saw them. I need to prepare X for upload with some fixes and i am on them. | 09:28 |
| mdz | fabbione: I think that almost all of them are NOTWARTY (universe packages) | 09:28 |
| mdz | they are assigned to both packages, but generally it is the universe one which is buggy :-) | 09:29 |
| fabbione | mdz: ok | 09:29 |
| fabbione | mdz: i need a decision on 1878 now | 09:30 |
| mdz | fabbione: confirm a couple of things for me please | 09:30 |
| mdz | fabbione: 1. current via driver is buggy and hangs systems | 09:30 |
| mdz | fabbione: 2. new via driver from x.org is not significantly better | 09:31 |
| mdz | ? | 09:31 |
| fabbione | mdz: the driver from x.org = the one we have. The driver from unichrome is not that better. It still has a lot of glitches here and there | 09:31 |

| daniels | does it introduce new ones? | 09:34 |
| fabbione | I try it seems to be impossible to make TV-out output be "nice": it has | 09:34 |
| fabbione | _lots_ of flicker and overscan, and everything is offset to the right | 09:34 |
| fabbione | (so when you're watching DVDs, you miss the right half of the movie). | 09:34 |
| fabbione | daniels: yes | 09:34 |
| daniels | i.e. are we talking about buggy (vs non-existant) support for chipsets we don't support now? | 09:34 |
| daniels | or screwing up chipsets that were previously OK | 09:34 |
| daniels | if so, it's not worth reverting | 09:34 |
| daniels | (imo) | 09:35 |
| fabbione | daniels: that was ok before | 09:35 |
| fabbione | TReenaks: can you confirm? | 09:35 |
| daniels | argh! | 09:35 |
| fabbione | + the VT switching. i guess that was working before too | 09:35 |
| daniels | no, previously it just hung from Kamion | 09:35 |
| daniels | s/from/for/ | 09:35 |
| daniels | that's progress ;) | 09:36 |
| fabbione | daniels: well he wrote something different in the bug report | 09:36 |
| mdz | there will be hardware and features that Warty does not support, this is unavoidable and not an RC issue. However, Warty should not hang the system even if it doesn't properly support the hardware | 09:36 |
| fabbione | X starts up fine with the new driver (I suspect it might have started up with | 09:36 |
| fabbione | the old driver too if I'd had my font packages configured correctly); | 09:36 |
| === hazmat [~hazmat@c-24-15-10-12.client.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| daniels | mdz: right | 09:40 |
| daniels | mdz: hence my suggestion of just having all of via use vesa | 09:40 |
| daniels | mdz: afaict that's the least-bad case | 09:40 |
| daniels | may not support everything, but it doesn't hang | 09:41 |
| daniels | via seems to be a total basketcase in general | 09:41 |
| daniels | (the via-supplied driver doesn't even work, there are two external projects -- one of which is dead -- to fix it, but neither of them have great access to hardware) | 09:42 |
| mdz | I've never encountered a via graphics card | 09:42 |
| mdz | are there some which work correctly? | 09:42 |
| daniels | mdz: mercifully, they seem to be rare | 09:42 |
| daniels | mdz: i don't know. i assume so, but I've not seen any success reports (not that we tend to, obviously; just the bug reports) | 09:43 |
| daniels | i have no access to via, and it's not something I'm terribly upset about | 09:43 |
| fabbione | i still suggest that if we enounter a via card, we ask for the driver and we don't probe | 09:49 |
| fabbione | i am really not happy to default to vesa | 09:49 |
| pitti | mdz: can you please approve #2051? It's trivial (the gimp-print force-reload fix) | 09:51 |

| pitti | Hi carlos_! | 09:51 |
| mdz | yes | 09:52 |
| doko | mdz, mithrandir: what do we want to do about the amd64 gcc-3.3 biarch? | 09:53 |
| carlos_ | hi | 09:57 |
| mdz | doko: well, we only use it for grub and oo.o, right? as long as the changes are obviously correct and cannot introduce regressions, I think we can do it | 09:57 |
| mdz | we should only need to verify grub and oo.o if it is simple enough | 09:57 |
| mdz | doko: but when I look at the bug report, it sounds like too big a change for 9 days from release | 10:01 |
| mdz | it must touch 3 or 4 packages, replacing things which have been tested and work with new code... | 10:02 |
| mdz | jdub: do you have an opinion on #1996? | 10:02 |
| doko | yes, it touches many things. however they all look straight forward. for gcc-3.3 I outlined a less invasive approach (and not touching grub). For the gcc-3.4 change, ia32-libs-ooo is affected too. | 10:05 |

| doko | elmo_: do we have a ubuntu-admin@, or is this just thom@ ? ;) | 10:17 |

| elmo_ | doko: admins@admins atm | 10:18 |
| elmo_ | err, admins@admins.warthogs.hbd.com I mean | 10:18 |
| mdz | elmo_: what does Mark say? | 10:18 |
| elmo_ | the RFC-required addresses at @ubuntu.com etc. will work, but we don't have a proper admins one setup yet | 10:18 |
| elmo_ | mdz: dunno, he's busy deciding out fate for the day(tm) with Steve - I'll ask him afterwards | 10:18 |

| carlos | seb128: hey | 10:28 |
| mdz | elmo_: I'll add to SupportedSeed | 10:28 |
| mdz | elmo_: please move pnm2ppa into main; I added it to a seed already | 10:36 |
| plovs | are there any ops for the #ubuntu channel? | 10:36 |
| mdz | plovs: why, is there a problem? | 10:36 |
| plovs | mdz, some people needs some kicking :) | 10:38 |
| plovs | ubuntu has been on slashdot you know | 10:38 |
| elmo_ | mdz: as long as wvdial is in the seed list it's almost impossible for me to detect any other changes | 10:40 |
| mdz | elmo_: yes, that is overdue for fixing | 10:41 |
| mdz | apparently, the only other package which uses libwvstreams is "retchmail" | 10:41 |
| mdz | which doesn't sound like it uses all the crazy stuff in that library either | 10:42 |
| mdz | so I'm thinking we should just have a minimal build of libwvstreams | 10:42 |
| Kamion | morning | 10:49 |
| mdz | Kamion: morning | 10:52 |
| mdz | Kamion: the natives are anxious for the new live CD :-) | 10:52 |
| Mithrandir | do we have a bug# for the "splash screen stays around after logging in"? | 10:54 |
| mdz | elmo_: minimal wvstreams uploaded, should not require any other packages from universe | 10:54 |
| mdz | Mithrandir: with or without causing the entire login process to fail? | 10:54 |
| mdz | with = 1943 | 10:54 |
| mdz | without = an old bug which was closed | 10:55 |
| Mithrandir | without | 10:55 |
| Mithrandir | mdz: on the mysterious system hangs bug -- it seems like it only happens with some packages, not all.. | 10:55 |
| mdz | Mithrandir: 1725 | 10:55 |
| mdz | seb128: ping? | 10:56 |
| seb128 | pong | 10:57 |
| Mithrandir | I love how gnome-terminal is able to use 50% cpu on a 2.4GHz P4 when running tar cvzf | 10:58 |
| mdz | seb128: so about #1943...:-) | 10:58 |
| seb128 | turn sound events off by default ? :) | 10:59 |
| mdz | seb128: I confirmed that disabling gnome-settings-sound.c:apply_settings works around the bug | 10:59 |
| mdz | so it is definitely related to the sound init | 10:59 |
| mdz | though I have not been able to find the exact problem | 10:59 |
| mdz | seb128: I would prefer to fix the bug, to be honest :-) | 11:00 |
| daniels | mdz: ping? | 11:00 |
| mdz | seb128: is there someone who is familiar with that reaper.c code? | 11:00 |
| seb128 | this part of code is not really maintained upstream, so dunno where to get help. I've not knowledge of this part of code either and I'm not able to reproduce it here ... | 11:00 |
| seb128 | I would like to fix it too | 11:00 |
| seb128 | but I've no real idea on where to start | 11:01 |
| mdz | it is so strange that you cannot reproduce it | 11:02 |
| mdz | seb128: I can give you a shell on my machine if it would help | 11:02 |
| mdz | seb128: it is easy to reproudce at the command line | 11:02 |
| mdz | by running gnome-settings-daemno | 11:02 |
| seb128 | ok, I'll have a serious look on this now. I'll start by making some extra tests on my test box and read the code | 11:04 |
| seb128 | and then I'll ping you back if I need a shell. But I would like to reproduce it here, more easy to debug in local | 11:04 |
| mdz | seb128: thanks, this is high priority because many users are encountering it, and it completely breaks their system | 11:05 |
| seb128 | on my box, if I "lsmod | grep '^snd' | awk '{ print $1 }' | xargs -n1 sudo rmmod" and login again, I don't even have a line about /dev/dsp | 11:05 |
| mdz | seb128: if you cannot isolate the problem today, we will need to disable sound events | 11:05 |
| mdz | seb128: that's strange; you have sound server startup enabled? | 11:06 |
| seb128 | yes | 11:06 |
| seb128 | sound events are working | 11:06 |
| seb128 | I log out, remove the sound modules and log in again | 11:06 |
| seb128 | no problem, no error in the log | 11:06 |
| seb128 | I just get the volume applet to 0 | 11:07 |
| Kamion | mdz: yeah, I know, will put it up this morning | 11:07 |
| Kamion | mdz: I'm just going to shove it in /releases/warty/preview/ for now (the location in the full tree is orthogonal to Mark's request for a simplified tree) | 11:08 |
| azeem | seb128: didn't hadess blog about sound being muted on startup recently? | 11:08 |
| azeem | might have been a different issue though | 11:08 |
| Kamion | wow, #ubuntu is a cesspit now | 11:11 |
| azeem | are the forums up yet? | 11:13 |
| Kamion | fabbione: defaulting to vesa seriously seems to be much more sane for the two via machines I have here; if you must ask, then at least please default to vesa not to via, I don't want to have to deal with the broken installations that will result otherwise | 11:13 |
| seb128 | azeem: dunno, apparently you read a lot more blogs than me | 11:16 |
| seb128 | azeem: any idea of the date of this blog entry ? | 11:16 |
| mdz | azeem: I think in this case it is set to 0 because there is no mixer device | 11:17 |
| azeem | seb128: heh, it might have been somewhere else again ;) | 11:17 |
| seb128 | mdz: do you have esd running when to problem happens ? | 11:18 |
| mdz | seb128: no, esd cannot start because there is no /dev/dsp | 11:18 |
| mdz | it could be some kind of race condition, but my laptop loses 100% of the time | 11:18 |
| azeem | http://www.hadess.net/?start=453 | 11:18 |
| azeem | "The next piece of work for system-config-soundcard is to fix the fact that ALSA starts up muted, and that the UI is starting to suck a bit" | 11:19 |
| seb128 | ok, on this box I've a lot of "/dev/dsp: No such file or directory" in the log | 11:24 |
| seb128 | but no problem to login | 11:24 |
| mdz | #2 0x0805de6f in vte_reaper_signal_handler (signum=-512) at reaper.c:64 | 11:25 |
| mdz | I have no idea where signum=-512 comes from | 11:25 |
| seb128 | vte is a terminal emulator | 11:26 |
| seb128 | what is that doing here ? | 11:27 |
| mdz | that code is in reaper.c in gnome-settings-daemon | 11:28 |
| mdz | perhaps the code was copied from another place | 11:28 |
| mdz | anyway that handler is only called for SIGCHLD | 11:28 |
| mdz | and there is a test in the handler for that | 11:28 |
| mdz | so i think gdb is just lying | 11:28 |
| elmo_ | gnome-nettool is pulling in tcptraceroute which is pulling in libnet0 and rman | 11:29 |
| elmo_ | ok? | 11:29 |
| mdz | gah | 11:30 |

| seb128 | let's use the patch for now, but we should consider switching to the alsa version after warty | 12:00 |
| mdz | after warty hopefully we will get rid of esd :-) | 12:00 |
| seb128 | true :) | 12:01 |
| mdz | yes, let's go with the patch | 12:01 |
| daniels | mdz: ok, so for #1897 we just clobber the file if either exists? | 12:02 |
| daniels | mdz: about to take care of that now | 12:02 |
| carlos | seb128: after warty, esound should die :-P | 12:03 |
| mdz | daniels: I'm fine with something similar to the supplied patch, but using grep instead of sed :-) | 12:03 |

| fabbione | the other exception for br -> abnt2 was already there | 01:00 |
| fabbione | so already defining the proper LAYOUT will do the trick | 01:00 |
| fabbione | but we must have the ub3r keyboard setting tool for hoary | 01:01 |
| fabbione | going or LANG isn't enough | 01:01 |
| Kamion | we'll have localization-config from Debian for hoary ... | 01:02 |
| Kamion | (Konstantinos' thing) | 01:02 |
| fabbione | Kamion: yes. the cose i am using has been stolen from it | 01:04 |
| mdz | pitti: don't bother with the file conflicts if the universe package is the buggy one | 01:04 |
| mdz | pitti: downgrade the bug if it is universe's fault | 01:05 |
| fabbione | 2 problems: 1) he didn't coordinate with X at all. He preseeds templates that might not even be there (last time i checked at least) | 01:05 |
| pitti | mdz: okay | 01:05 |
| fabbione | 2) the templates needs to go in something/shared and we need to sync translations & co. that hasn't been done | 01:06 |
| mdz | pitti: I can't reproduce the "first plugged in" bug, at least not reliably | 01:06 |
| Kamion | mdz: we forgot to make lsb-release's Ubuntu version number consistent with everything else (i.e. "4.10" rather than "4-10"); OK to upload? | 01:06 |
| mdz | Kamion: yes | 01:06 |
| pitti | mdz: its not reliable anyway (it's a race condition) | 01:06 |
| fabbione | mdz: you marked 2007 as duplicate of 1964 but they aren't really the same | 01:07 |
| pitti | mdz: I thought you were already asleep, but you can test my package before approval | 01:07 |
| fabbione | mdz: one option to catch all the possibility is to confirm the layout when LAYOUT=unknown or LAYOUT=us, that seems to be most common problem. | 01:08 |
| pitti | mdz: http://www.piware.de/hal/hal_0.2.98-1ubuntu5_i386.deb | 01:08 |

| fabbione | mdz: well i read it again and i noticed that it is not exactly the same | 01:16 |
| daniels | mdz: basically, we don't have any support for those touchpads whatsoever (for the cPads, we cannot make a working configuration out of the box; I believe we cannot get any working ALPS configuration) and doing both of 2026 and 2057 would fix this | 01:16 |
| mdz | fabbione: ok, feel free to fix up the bug | 01:16 |
| fabbione | mdz: asking the question if LAYOUT=unknown or LAYOUT=us ? | 01:17 |
| mdz | daniels: ok, that's just missing hardware support, and we'll have that. not RC, then | 01:17 |
| daniels | mdz: -> hoary? | 01:17 |
| mdz | fabbione: why LAYOUT=us? | 01:17 |
| mdz | daniels: yes | 01:17 |
| daniels | mdzfair cop | 01:17 |
| fabbione | mdz: 2007 got a US layout when it should have been es | 01:18 |
| fabbione | mdz: probably due to a lang setting | 01:18 |
| mdz | fabbione: so probably he chose English install but with Swedish keymap? | 01:18 |

| mdz | seb128: is it possible to remove the tcptraceroute dep from gnome-nettool? | 01:20 |
| fabbione | mdz: he must have got a strange LANG or something that we don't handle directly | 01:21 |
| fabbione | mdz: that would explain the "bug" | 01:21 |
| fabbione | but there is no winner here until we don't have console -> X keyboard maps | 01:21 |

| daniels | fabbione: why not do if [ "$RET" = "via" ] ; DEVICE_DRIVER="vesa"; fi | 01:39 |
| daniels | fabbione: that still allows for DDC probes, which are harmles | 01:40 |
| fabbione | daniels: hmmmmmmmmmmm | 01:40 |
| fabbione | daniels: what if the card looks up the machine? | 01:40 |
| daniels | fabbione: on a DDC probe? then shit dude, it has bigger problems | 01:41 |
| daniels | fabbione: and will be unusable with the vesa driver also | 01:41 |
| daniels | think of it as an early warning if a VESA VBE DDC probe kills the machine :) | 01:41 |
| fabbione | daniels: didn't you say that via doesn't return DDC stuff because it doesn't store it in the NVRAM? | 01:41 |
| fabbione | or BIOS or whatever | 01:41 |
| daniels | fabbione: only for laptop panels, and we were trying with read-edid, not ddcprobe | 01:41 |
| daniels | read-edid actually misses a massive chunk of the DDC data | 01:42 |
| daniels | if we try it with ddcprobe, the best case is we get a working resolution, the realistic worst case is that the resolution is wrong | 01:42 |
| fabbione | daniels: i see your point, but i am really not too happy to force that on cards that already sucks | 01:42 |
| fabbione | daniels: i much rather prefer to ask the resolution | 01:43 |
| fabbione | without hanging the machine | 01:43 |
| fabbione | since we can't test it, i would much rather prefer to skip it | 01:43 |
| fabbione | 100% to be safe | 01:43 |
| daniels | fabbione: um | 01:43 |
| daniels | seriously, as I said, if it hangs on a DDC probe, then it won't be able to use either the VESA or Via driver | 01:44 |
| daniels | it will also die on Windows installs | 01:44 |

| fabbione | i am pretty sure it's not a problem in the script | 01:55 |
| fabbione | we would have noticed in debian too | 01:55 |
| daniels | yeah | 01:56 |
| daniels | it's bong | 01:56 |
| fabbione | mind to ask or comment? | 01:57 |
| daniels | you want me to? | 01:58 |
| mdz | seb128: there is a part of the UI which uses tcptraceroute? for what? | 02:00 |
| mdz | seb128: can we change it to use tracepath instead? | 02:00 |
| seb128 | mdz: run gnome-nettool :) The UI has differents tab: traceroute, port scan, finger, whois ... | 02:01 |
| seb128 | no idea, but I can have a look if you want | 02:01 |
| mdz | seb128: at first glance it seems to just provide a way to run the program and view its output | 02:01 |
| mdz | so I think tracepath would work fine | 02:01 |
| seb128 | I think so | 02:02 |
| mdz | seb128: do you want a bug as a reminder? | 02:02 |
| seb128 | yes please | 02:02 |
| fabbione | daniels: yes please. | 02:04 |
| fabbione | mdz: 2054. there are several differences between the 2 logs | 02:05 |

| pitti | Kamion: none actually | 02:23 |
| pitti | Kamion: I just saw that cdebconf is not installable in Warty anyway | 02:24 |
| Kamion | (by adding a conflicts) | 02:24 |
| pitti | Kamion: it will remove 1GB of packages | 02:24 |
| pitti | Kamion: I can reassign it to you if you want | 02:24 |
| Kamion | it is perfectly installable, just not simultaneously with debconf :-) | 02:24 |
| pitti | Kamion: but half a thousand packages depend only on debconf | 02:24 |
| Kamion | yes, I know | 02:25 |
| Kamion | it's not really a bug, cdebconf will probably eventually replace debconf | 02:25 |
| Kamion | I'm not sure why it's in warty though | 02:25 |
| pitti | Kamion: it is a bug in those many packages; they should depend on debconf|cdebconf, not? | 02:25 |
| pitti | Kamion: cdebconf is not in warty | 02:25 |

| thom | pitti: yup, looks good to me | 02:37 |
| pitti | thom: fine; plovs also tests it right now, if it works for him, I will upload the beast | 02:37 |
| pitti | thom: thanks for testing! | 02:37 |
| Kamion | occy: related to bug #581? | 02:38 |
| occy | Kamion: let me take a look at that one. | 02:38 |
| Kamion | although I think that's a Dell desktop, hm | 02:38 |
| occy | by "blocking" does that mean prevent installation? | 02:39 |
| Kamion | occy: I'm afraid the way to make sure somebody looks at it *is* to file a bug; if Bugzilla keeps eating it, you might want to mail justdave@canonical.com for help | 02:39 |
| Kamion | block means waiting for I/O | 02:39 |
| occy | ahh | 02:39 |
| occy | Kamion: who is this person? justdave@canonical.com? Is he a developer? | 02:40 |
| Kamion | he runs our Bugzilla installation | 02:41 |

| elmo_ | is it just me or is "build a kernel image with the warty source" far more complex than it ought to be? | 05:33 |
| Kamion | is it not just dpkg-buildpackage from the source package? | 05:35 |
| elmo_ | err, that'll build all the madness ? | 05:40 |
| elmo_ | I mean build a custom kernel image | 05:40 |
| elmo_ | 'export PATCH_THE_KERNEL=yes' isn't exactly intuitive, IMO | 05:40 |
| elmo_ | CONFIG_BROKEN=y | 05:41 |
| elmo_ | mmk | 05:41 |
| Keybuk | make-kpkg, especially all the patch gubbins, has always been a little Manoj for my tastes | 05:46 |
| Kamion | can someone peer-review my patch in #1332 for me, please? | 06:45 |
| Kamion | I've tested it in all three mentioned cases | 06:45 |
| elmo_ | I guess the /tmp use is safe (?), but it's security-team bait :) | 06:54 |

| elmo_ | thom: yes, works for me | 07:29 |
| thom | goodo | 07:31 |
| thom | mdz: can i upload php with either mine or adam's patches? I don't think going with a new upstream is a good move | 07:32 |
| mdz | thom, which is better, yours or his? | 07:33 |
| thom | mine fixes a printf, other than that they're identical | 07:33 |
| mdz | your call then | 07:34 |
| mdz | one of them is OK by me | 07:34 |
| thom | k | 07:34 |
| mdz | but not both :-) | 07:34 |

| Kamion | just uploading that prebaseconfig/base-config thing for UTC handling first | 07:44 |
| mdz | argh, silly xchat | 07:44 |
| mdz | Kamion: I fixed them up so that they're actually installable on all architectures | 07:44 |
| Kamion | mdz: although it's a little awkward due to the lack of easily greppable naming pattern, hmm | 07:44 |
| mdz | I think we should probably clean them up so that they don't require 3 levels of metapackages, but that can come later | 07:44 |
| mdz | I think linux-foo should depend directly on linux-x.y.z-n-foo | 07:45 |
| mdz | rather than via linux-image-2.6-foo | 07:45 |
| Kamion | kernel_update_list () { | 07:45 |

| Kamion | cut -d" " -f1 | uniq > $KERNEL_LIST | 07:45 |
| Kamion | } | 07:45 |
| Kamion | I'm trying to figure out what to do with that bit ... | 07:45 |
| mdz | hmm, that's inconvenient | 07:45 |
| mdz | if not for amd64, linux-[^-] * would work | 07:46 |
| mdz | I'm a bit crippled on my laptop right now, it having recently been reinstalled and hurriedly prepped to be my primary workstation for a couple of days | 07:46 |
| mdz | could someone kindly clean up my mess and squash #2063? | 07:46 |
| Kamion | also linux-686-smp etc., which would work on netboot installs | 07:47 |
| Kamion | does apt-cache search look at the source package name? | 07:48 |
| mdz | don't think so | 07:48 |
| mdz | that command-line really should use apt-cache search -n | 07:48 |
| mdz | that grep seems to be working around the lack of -n | 07:49 |
| Kamion | -n? | 07:49 |
| mdz | --names-only | 07:49 |
| mdz | matches the package name only, not description | 07:49 |
| Kamion | it also works around lack of ^ in the apt-cache search | 07:49 |
| mdz | yes... | 07:49 |
| Kamion | does apt-cache search --names-only ^kernel-image work? | 07:49 |
| mdz | in fact what that really wants to be is "apt-cache pkgnames linux-image" | 07:50 |
| mdz | Kamion: absolutely | 07:50 |
| mdz | but apt-cache pkgnames would avoid the cut and uniq as well | 07:50 |
| Kamion | apt-cache pkgnames returns packages that are not actually available | 07:51 |
| mdz | not that we should be tweaking for elegance reasons at this point, really...:-) | 07:51 |
| Kamion | <cjwatson@cairhien ~>$ apt-cache search --names-only ^kernel-image | grep 2.2.20<cjwatson@cairhien ~>$ apt-cache pkgnames kernel-image | grep 2.2.20 kernel-image-2.2.20-pmac | 07:51 |
| Kamion | kernel-image-2.2.20-prep | 07:51 |
| Kamion | kernel-image-2.2.20-chrp | 07:51 |
| Kamion | oopsie, but you get the idea | 07:51 |
| mdz | true, it'll likely match anything mentioned in a dependency relationship | 07:52 |
| Kamion | anyway, still leaves the problem of how to find the metapackages | 07:52 |
| Kamion | shame I didn't think of this before, I'd have suggested linux-meta-* | 07:53 |
| mdz | we only have 3 architectures; we could hardcode it | 07:53 |
| mdz | *duck* | 07:53 |
| Kamion | ewwwwwwwww | 07:53 |
| Kamion | we could put grep-dctrl in base and then I could use that :) | 07:54 |
| thom | mdz: i'll take 2063 | 07:54 |
| mdz | thom: thanks | 07:54 |
| mdz | apt-cache -n search '^linux-(.86|k7|power|amd64)' | 07:55 |
| Kamion | there might be a better way, testing now | 07:55 |
| thom | oh. for powernow on amd64 it seems like the only module is powernow-k8; i could just hardcode that based on uname -m :/ | 07:55 |
| mdz | thom: WFM | 07:56 |
| Kamion | hm, no, apt-cache search doesn't look at descriptions | 07:58 |
| Kamion | s/descriptions/dependencies/ | 07:58 |
| Kamion | mdz: you know, "apt-cache search 'Complete Linux kernel on'" is actually slightly less gross :) | 07:59 |
| mdz | Kamion: ewwww | 07:59 |
| mdz | apt-cache search -n '^linux-' | grep -v '^linux-image' | 08:00 |
| Kamion | returns linux-headers | 08:00 |
| === mdz cries | ||
| mdz | wow, #ubuntu really is a cesspool now | 08:01 |
| mdz | but a cesspool of 220 persons(!) | 08:01 |
| thom | yeah | 08:01 |
| mdz | when did we gain another 40? | 08:01 |
| mdz | did the live cd announcement go out? :-) | 08:01 |
| Kamion | # apt-cache -n search ^linux- | head -n 1 | 08:02 |
| Kamion | klogd - Kernel Logging Daemon | 08:02 |
| Kamion | WTF? | 08:02 |
| thom | and 550 mails on the bugs list over the weekend *sob* | 08:02 |
| Kamion | so the grep really is needed | 08:02 |
| Kamion | mdz: apt-cache search -n ^linux- | grep ^linux- | grep -v 'linux-\(doc\|.*headers\|.*modules\|patch\|source\|tree\)' | 08:02 |
| Kamion | returns the right set ... | 08:03 |
| Kamion | I'm rather tempted to suggest renaming the packages while we still can, though | 08:04 |
| mdz | I am very partial to the simple linux-foo naming | 08:04 |
| Kamion | it really sucks for greppability, though | 08:05 |
| mdz | one day you will be able to "apt-get install linux" and have it DTRT :-) | 08:05 |
| thom | dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -S -sa 21.50s user 52.98s system 20% cpu 5:57.91 total | 08:06 |
| thom | gosh, i wonder what package that could be | 08:06 |
| mdz | hehe | 08:06 |
| thom | mdz: oh, hey. everytime i reboot, my evms partition doesn't work till i rerun evmsn - i don't get /dev/evms entries till then | 08:07 |
| thom | have i missed something obvious? | 08:08 |
| mdz | really? that's odd | 08:08 |
| mdz | what if you run evms_activate? | 08:08 |
| mdz | oh, I know what it is | 08:08 |
| mdz | thom: your evms volumes are on a device that is created when hotplug runs | 08:08 |
| mdz | and evms runs ahead of hotplug | 08:08 |
| thom | ah, yep. | 08:08 |
| mdz | it should probably re-run after hotplug | 08:09 |
| thom | or get kicked by udev for certain types of things getting loaded? | 08:09 |
| mdz | hmm | 08:11 |
| mdz | currently there's no way to tell it only to discover volumes on a certain device | 08:12 |
| mdz | but that'd be handy | 08:12 |
| thom | that seems to be the way things are heading | 08:13 |
| thom | but yeah, i have /dev/evms/home 143G 5.9G 137G 5% /home and it seems to be working nicely - xfs over software raid1 on serial ata | 08:14 |
| mdz | thom: configured from the ground up with evms? | 08:16 |
| thom | yep | 08:17 |
| mdz | nice | 08:18 |
| thom | the manual is pretty decent | 08:18 |
| mdz | so nice to be able to build a volume like that without prodding 3 or 4 different subsystems with their own config files | 08:18 |
| thom | definitely | 08:18 |
| thom | especially since evmsgui is just nicely clicky-clicky :-) | 08:19 |
| mdz | one of these days someone will write a decent CLI for it | 08:19 |
| thom | (you should include a .desktop file for it and include it in System Config) | 08:19 |
| mdz | with zsh tab completion *swoon* | 08:19 |
| thom | heh, that'd be nice | 08:19 |
| mdz | thom: I *so* don't want that support headache :-) | 08:19 |
| mdz | the GUI, while very nice, is not exactly desktop-user-friendly | 08:20 |

| tseng | see if it looks at the ipw | 09:45 |
| tseng | this seemed to work all fine with 2.6.8.1-2 | 09:46 |
| tseng | iirc | 09:46 |
| pitti | tseng: do you have the time and skills to debug hal? Or can you let me onto a noncritical machine? | 09:46 |
| tseng | you can do it on here, nothing very critical | 09:47 |
| tseng | just dont rm my homework | 09:47 |
| tseng | lemme grab that key | 09:47 |
| pitti | tseng: actually I do not want do modify anything (not even install a new package), but I need root to debug hal | 09:48 |
| tseng | yes thats fine | 09:48 |
| tseng | im setup in the broken environment now | 09:48 |
| pitti | tseng: broken env? | 09:49 |
| tseng | yes, conditions set for a segfault | 09:49 |
| pitti | tseng: you plugin this card= | 09:49 |
| pitti | tseng: s/=/?/ | 09:49 |
| tseng | no, if i boot without pci=noacpi, the card does not work (irq conflict) but hald dose | 09:50 |
| tseng | if i boot with, the card works, hal does not | 09:50 |
| tseng | let me make a port forward here right quick | 09:51 |
| pitti | tseng: I have to reboot as well (new kernel), see you in some minutes | 09:51 |

| mdz | pitti: eek, #2069 | 10:20 |
| mdz | pitti: will you take care of it? | 10:20 |
| pitti | mdz: I can do | 10:20 |
| pitti | mdz: BTW, I just got yet another hal segfault | 10:21 |
| pitti | mdz: sometimes I wish hal was written in python | 10:21 |
| mdz | yes | 10:21 |
| pitti | tseng: can you please download http://www.piware.de/hal_0.2.98-1ubuntu6_i386.deb, install it with dpkg -i and check whether hal works now? | 10:27 |
| tseng | yes | 10:27 |
| tseng | pitti: the pkg restarted dbus | 10:28 |
| pitti | tseng: please be aware that hal upgrade will kill gnome-volume-manager (bug #1551), so you need to logout and in if you actually want your devices mounted | 10:28 |
| tseng | pitti: and hald is running now | 10:28 |
| pitti | YEEEAAHH! | 10:28 |
| tseng | hal 6337 4.3 0.7 5480 4096 ? Ss 16:28 0:00 /usr/sbin/hald --drop-privileges | 10:28 |
| pitti | tseng: thanks! | 10:28 |
| tseng | you rock, etc | 10:28 |
| pitti | tseng: thanks for letting me onto your machine. You should remove my ssh key | 10:29 |
| tseng | yeah im on it | 10:29 |
| pitti | tseng: I removed my files (up to the backdoors, of course :-), so you should not need to clean up anything other | 10:29 |
| tseng | yep. | 10:29 |
| mdz | heh, mounting with noatime severely confuses mutt | 10:43 |
