mxpxpodKeybuk: and it's in a patch that has a bunch of stuff in it12:01
wasabiheh. changelogs.12:01
wasabiYou use kernel-package?12:03
wasabidoesn't it generate kernel-image packages, and not linux-image?12:03
wasabiANd not all those cool symlink stuff.12:03
wasabiOr was that fixed? :)12:03
(tseng/#ubuntu-devel) the only difference between kernel-image and linux-image is the name afaik12:03
(tseng/#ubuntu-devel) i hope someone can enlighten us otherwise12:04
wasabiwell linux-source packages are a bit different.12:04
wasabiThey use a symlink farm of some sort in /usr/src12:04
(tseng/#ubuntu-devel) no kidding, thats why its called -source12:04
wasabimake-kpkg never build those for me with kernel_source.12:04
(tseng/#ubuntu-devel) never built the linux-source?12:05
wasabithe symlink farms.12:05
mxpxpodis there a reason ubuntu hasn't upgraded to 2.6.9?12:05
wasabiit just makes flat dirs in /usr/src12:05

FTTPit was not usable12:17
FTTPits only a dev so....12:17
FTTPkeybuk:  Was work done to the newest daily snapshot?12:18
FTTPor are there any releases which i can try for hoary which are more stable than the others?12:18
Keybuknot that I'm aware of ... I've not heard that bug12:18
Keybukis it in Bugzilla (opened or closed?)12:18

KeybukI work for Canonical, but most of my time isn't working on Ubuntu itself at the moment12:23
FTTPahh12:24
FTTPwhat are you responsible for? 12:24
(Mithrandir/#ubuntu-devel) Keybuk: you're still an ubuntu developer, though12:24
KeybukFTTP: "Special Projects", heh12:24
FTTPsuch as?12:24

FTTPhehe12:24
KeybukMithrandir: I didn't even have my key in the keyring until last week!12:25
KeybukFTTP: heh, it's a joke ... Special Projects is the mythical dept. people get transferred to before they're made redundant12:26
(Mithrandir/#ubuntu-devel) Keybuk: you didn't? that actually surprises me :)12:26
KeybukMithrandir: nah, almost the only stuff I've uploaded have been that big match of first-run merges12:28
danielsMithrandir: would *you* want him uploading to Ubuntu?12:29
danielsMithrandir: mdz just has good taste ;)12:29

sivangKeybuk : ah, then I'm already set :)12:32
FTTPcant seem to find the link 12:32
danielsFTTP: http://archive.ubuntu.com/cdimage/, I'd imagine12:32
FTTPahhh12:32
FTTPthanks12:32
danielsKeybuk: speaking of Python -- http://gabe.freedesktop.org/~daniels/old-to-new-ldap.py12:32
FTTPill bookmark that :P12:32
danielsKeybuk: check that baby out :)12:32
danielsKeybuk: the two password crypting functions are stolen from userdir-ldap, the rest is mine12:32
Keybukdaniels: what does that *do* ?12:32
KeybukFTTP: we have coders in every timezone12:32
Keybukand I've certainly done the odd 24+ when I've not noticed the sun come up again12:33
danielsKeybuk: takes an ldif of our old ldap database, generates an ldif of the new-format setup12:33
danielsKeybuk: lies12:33
danielsKeybuk: there's no-one in +1300 (NZ)12:33
Keybukdaniels: pedant :p  you knew what I meant :p12:33
danielsor +0950, or +1050, or +100012:33
Keybukdaniels: aww, so it doesn't convert woody-era ldap to sarge-era ldap? :(12:33
danielsKeybuk: but yeah, the code is pretty horrible12:33
stratus-0300 ?12:33
danielsKeybuk: nope, just different formats of database12:33
FTTPkeybuk:  Shouldnt you be coding now ? :)12:33
FTTPheh12:33
danielsstratus: wtf is that?12:33
FTTPoh wait your in special projects12:33
FTTPi fergot12:33
Keybukdaniels: *cry* ... my ldap server is broke because of that12:33
danielsKeybuk: i.e. one from some horrid abortion called usradm to userdir-ldap12:33
FTTP:P12:34
Keybukkeeps bitching about records not being structural12:34
danielsKeybuk: should happen ... oh, wack12:34
danielsKeybuk: how many records?12:34
stratusdaniels, BRT of course.12:34
danielsstratus: oh, right12:34
danielsstratus: is that in line with us est, or is it an hour ahead?12:34
danielsstratus: because we have someone in est12:34
Keybukdaniels: not a huge number12:35
Keybukbut I can't figure out what it's talking about12:35
wasabioye.12:35
Keybukand how I'm supposed to solve it12:35
stratusdaniels, i guess not, checking...12:35
danielsKeybuk: meh, just do it by hand12:35
wasabidpkg is ugly12:35
danielsKeybuk: probably to do with your objectClasses12:35
KeybukI added a silly structural record type to them all12:35
Keybukthen it bitched about having two structural types in some of the fields12:35
Keybukand I declared that I couldn't win12:35
stratusdaniels, no EST is -050012:35
danielsstratus: ah.  in any case, actually, we do have people there.12:36
FTTPkeybuy: Array1 is more stable right?12:36
FTTPerr keybuk12:36
stratusdaniels, np but not at -0300 !12:36
FTTPi tried the daily last time12:36
danielsKeybuk: you can never win with LDAP12:36
danielsKeybuk: just lose less horrendously badly12:36
danielsstratus: yes we do :)12:36
danielsstratus: i just realised we have some people in brazil12:36
KeybukFTTP: *shrug* Array has Colin's hand-built touch12:36
Keybukso theoretically it's more ... testable12:36
FTTPyep12:36
FTTP:P12:36
Keybukdaniels: tell me about it12:36
seb128hum, the archive is not updated ?12:36
stratusdaniels, oh yes the guys at async?12:36
Keybukfrom what I could tell, posixGroup is structural -- but then posixAccount *isn't*12:37
seb128the new gnumeric has built for hours and is still not available12:37
wasabiKeybuk, you know much about parsedb and pkginfo struct?12:37
danielsstratus: aye12:37
Keybukbut organization is structural ... so what if something's both an Organisation and a POSIX Group?!12:37
stratusdaniels, i see12:37
Keybukwasabi: yeah, it's just a linked list of the state file12:37
wasabiPosix group is messed up12:38
wasabinss_ldap also reads groupOfUniqueNames12:38
danielsKeybuk: yeah, don't use posixAccount12:38
wasabiI believe.12:38
Keybukwell, I changed posixGroup anyway to have "gid" instead of "cn"12:38
danielsKeybuk: i use top/inetOrgPerson/shadowAccount/debianAccount/debianDeveloper12:38
Keybukso maybe I just need to change that to be auxiliary12:38
wasabiposixGroup is a pretty dumb class.12:38
Keybukdaniels: top isn't structural :-o12:38
danielsKeybuk: but iirc the old stuff was top/posixAccount/shadowAccount12:38
danielsKeybuk: in that case, none of our records are, but sarge/warty's ldap still loves me \o/12:39
Keybukslapadd: dn="dc=netsplit,dc=com" (line=7): (65) no structural object class provided12:41

mojodoes anyone know something wrong with the CVS server?12:45
KeybukFTTP: we have a similar amount of capital in the bank as RedHat, as I understand it12:45
FTTPkeybuk:  Novell has 500mil +12:45
FTTPit won a microsoft lawsuit <grin>12:45
Keybukyeah, but Novell is a much larger business than Ximian12:45

wasabiSo, who "makes decisions"?12:51
=== Keybuk gives up and goes back to /etc/passwd
Keybukwasabi: it's complicated12:52
Keybukthe developers make decisions12:52
Keybukbut if they can't reach consensus, they can ask either the technical board or the community council to make a decision for them12:52
Keybukand if they can't reach consensus, we ask Mark12:53
wasabiOtherwise it's just like Debian, people do what they think they should do whenever?12:54
Keybukkinda, the tech board and sabdfl both set direction for people to head in12:55
wasabiHmm.12:56
wasabiDpkg is confusing me to no end.12:57
Keybukit's good at that12:57
(sabdfl/#ubuntu-devel) it's usually the pointy end that gets the most confused by dpkg though12:57
wasabiI found parsedb(), which reads hte control file... but I have no idea what it's doing with the values.12:58
stratusdiscarding them? :)12:58
Keybukputs them in the package info list12:58
wasabistruct pkginfo?12:58
jdz_Are there any plans for LTSP work in Ubuntu?01:00
Keybukthe package list is global, so it doesn't get passed in or out, just added to in general01:00
Keybukoh, would it help to know findpackage always returns?01:04
Keybukso if you try and find a package that doesn't exist, you get an empty record to fill in?01:05
wasabiheh.01:05
wasabiRight now im just trying to figure out how to expose my new control fields to the code.01:05
Keybukthus pig=findpackage(newpig.name); actually makes a record01:05
wasabiAnd I don't understand the relation of the pkginfo struct to the deb and to the currently installed packages01:05
Keybukadd it to the fieldinfos01:05
wasabiif a package is currently installed, the pkginfo struct you receive makes note of it01:06

FTTPit says fatal error module hid not found01:21
FTTPso nope it doesnt 01:21
wasabiKeybuk, in pkginfo,   struct pkginfoperfile installed;  struct pkginfoperfile available;   Is available the instance of hte package attempting to be installed, and installation the one that is already installed (or null)?01:25
Keybukinstalled is the one in the status file01:26
Keybukavailable is the one "on the FTP site"01:26

Keybukyeah01:27
wasabiYeah, the archive is just for apt.01:27
Keybukremember, APT is a "relatively" new invention01:27
wasabibut if I do dpkg -i /blah/blah.deb, available refers to that one01:27

Matt|hi all. Sorry to butt in but I have a hoary question, and it's not gonna be answered in #ubuntu. I have a laptop. Since updating hoary yesterday I have lost the ability to plug in a mouse with xorg, and I can only use my touchpad. Anyone know the solution? haven't changed the configuration since updating.03:46
RubenVsince the convert thing basically just copies the XF86 config, it should work03:47
RubenVi'm not an X whiz though03:47
Matt|no this was not the convert03:47
Matt|it was an xorg update03:47
Matt|was working fine with the last xorg packages before i updated03:48
Matt|RubenV, thanks for replying btw03:48
RubenVlook in the changelogs of something concerning your mouse changed03:48
RubenVmaybe that'll give a hint03:48
Matt|i'll try :/03:48
RubenVMatt|: gotta do something to contribute03:49
Matt|me?03:49
RubenVgiving some irc help is the best i can do at the moment for the open source community03:49
Matt|oh i c03:49
Matt|:)03:50
RubenVmagnificent C skills coming up though ;)03:50
Matt|*grins*03:50
Matt|i have no such skills03:50
Matt|i am soon to be a lawyer ;p03:50
RubenVnice03:50
Matt|i was thinking that it would be amazing to work as a lawyer for an open source company03:50
RubenVdefend the gpl03:50
Matt|yeah03:51
Matt|any idea where I would find the changelogs?03:51
RubenVsynaptic has a way to do so03:53
RubenVit's in the menu somewhere03:53
Matt|oh ok03:53
Matt|RubenV, nope can't see anything03:56
Matt|there is a mouse thing, but a different protocol03:56
RubenVhmmm03:57
RubenVyour X config is still intact?03:57
RubenVit's a laptop so i guess it's an usb mouse, does it get detected when you plug it in?03:58
=== Mitario [~michiel@sikkes.xs4all.nl] has joined #ubuntu-devel
Matt|no it is ps203:59
Matt|xconfig seems ok03:59
Matt|when i plug it in, the light on the touchpad goes out, as it usually does when I plug a mouse in, but then it comes back on again.03:59
Matt|i've tried with 2 mice03:59
Matt|i guess i need to try a live disk to make sure it isn't a hardware error :(04:00

RubenVbut i could be wrong04:07
RubenVhardware ain't really my thing04:07
Matt|RubenV, mine has always worked fine like that. but I've rebooted too and it still doesn't work04:07
Matt|Be RiGhT bAcK i'll try and boot knoppix or something04:08
=== Matt| [~Matt|@81-178-126-223.dsl.pipex.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel
Matt|RubenV, it doesn't work in knoppix either. Guess there must be something wrong with the mouse port :((((04:16
RubenVMatt|: can't judge about that, i'm no hardware specialist04:17
(Mithrandir/#ubuntu-devel) you can't hotplug ps2 mice, no. ps2 keyboards you usually can, but some people claim to have fried their hardware doing that.04:17
