| mako | so this poor macedonians are having all kinds of trouble with getting these CDs it seems | 12:24 |
| mako | the custom officials open the package and see 10 copies of the same cd and just freak out | 12:25 |
| jdub | heh | 12:25 |
| jdub | mdz: so, we don't have a component for linux 2.6.9 yet | 12:27 |
| jdub | mdz: i need inotify kernel headers on the buildds | 12:27 |
| mdz | jdub: "linux" should be used for all kernel stuff, generally | 12:28 |
| jdub | mdz: should i make a new component, linux-source...? | 12:28 |
| jdub | ah, okay | 12:28 |
| mdz | jdub: you do not need kernel headers on the buildds | 12:28 |
| trulux | bluefoxicy, ping | 12:28 |
| trulux | lamont, hey | 12:28 |
| mdz | jdub: whatever it is, it shouldn't rely on kernel headers on the build system | 12:28 |
| jdub | hrm | 12:28 |
| jdub | i don't think it *relies* on them | 12:29 |
| jdub | no, has a local header for it | 12:29 |
| lamont | jdub: kernel headers should never be included in user space | 12:31 |
| lamont | trulux: yo | 12:31 |
| jdub | it's okay, it has a local copy | 12:31 |
| trulux | lamont, do you the hardened debian project? | 12:33 |
| mdz | jdub: perfect | 12:33 |
| trulux | lamont, i have some documentation you could find interesting, it's at http://wiki.debian-hardened.org/Main_Page | 12:33 |
| lamont | trulux: I think I may have heard something about it | 12:34 |
| lamont | will look at the docs | 12:34 |
| trulux | lamont, fine | 12:36 |
| trulux | lamont, what job/activy are you taking at Ubuntu? | 12:36 |
| === trulux has finished the libssp, but still debian package fails building, needs further checking | ||
| lamont | trulux: I'm the buildd and general fix-broken-things guy | 12:41 |
| trulux | lamont, great, if you want i can send you now the tarball with the 0.2 revision, but don't distribute it yet, use it for yur own fun, we will release it after we do some docs and also clean some of the ssp.c routines | 12:43 |
| lamont | trulux: you going to be in mataro? | 12:44 |
| === jdz_ [~jdz@69.49.156.181] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| trulux | lamont, i think not :( i want to, but i'm 15 years old and it's difficult to say "hey, i'm going to matar, i take my lapto and a few money, see you soon!" | 12:49 |
| lamont | yeah - that could be a bit of a challenge... :-) | 12:49 |
| trulux | lamont, yep :( | 12:51 |
| trulux | lamont, i was in another con with my father, he just left me alone when i was in it, i've the presentation of hardened debian there | 12:51 |
| trulux | (undercon 8th edition) | 12:51 |
| trulux | it's the spanish version of the defcon, our hackmeeting is more about political and philosphical terms, the undercon is only about the stuff we work on ;-) | 12:52 |
| trulux | lamont, i can dcc you the tarball, do you want it? | 12:53 |

| lamont | but wouldn't mind having a copy to look through if I manage to make time for it. | 12:57 |
| trulux | lamont, ok | 12:59 |
| trulux | i'm uploading it | 12:59 |
| trulux | done | 01:01 |

| tseng | are you guys trolling up hardened debian again | 01:35 |
| Sturzflut | no :) | 01:35 |
| Sturzflut | no official support from me :) | 01:36 |
| bluefoxicy | tseng: I dragged trulux in here to discuss the potential to add -fstack-protector to ubuntu :) | 01:37 |
| bluefoxicy | since he claims to be close on that | 01:37 |
| tseng | ok | 01:37 |
| tseng | id discourage any of the build-by-default patches | 01:37 |
| bluefoxicy | he's a smart kid; him, flut, and lv have together managed to put the ssp symbols into an external library | 01:37 |
| tseng | is that working? | 01:38 |
| bluefoxicy | I have no idea | 01:38 |
| Sturzflut | tseng: it works | 01:38 |
| tseng | it was giving duplicates when in libgcc | 01:38 |
| Sturzflut | I think I'm the first person to actually try it :) | 01:38 |
| bluefoxicy | tseng: build-by-default I like | 01:38 |
| mirak | I got a problem, I can't install grub | 01:38 |
| mirak | anymore | 01:38 |
| tseng | bluefoxicy: it doesnt fit outside of gentoo | 01:38 |
| bluefoxicy | tseng: There's a specs patch that gets the specs from the environment variable GCC_SPECS | 01:38 |
| bluefoxicy | tigger^ wrote it | 01:38 |
| mirak | it says stage1 is corrupted | 01:39 |
| bluefoxicy | trulux is adding that to hardened debian's GCC | 01:39 |
| Sturzflut | that's what I'm using now | 01:39 |
| tseng | yes, that is still not it | 01:39 |
| Sturzflut | gcc profiles would be nice | 01:39 |
| tseng | do you guys have a channel we could go to | 01:39 |
| bluefoxicy | tseng: vanilla specs can be "default," but the debian maintainer's tools can default to a hardened spec | 01:39 |
| bluefoxicy | tseng: #debian-hardened | 01:39 |

| === chrisa [~chris@nullcode.org] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| lamont | jdub: they've been doing lots of work to make it smart about when it steals. All I want is an option that says "never steal focus from the current window". | 01:47 |
| jdub | in many cases it doesn't | 01:48 |
| jdub | if you've found a stupid case where it does | 01:48 |
| jdub | that should be fixed | 01:48 |
| jdub | if that option is there, it will never be fixed | 01:48 |
| jdub | ask me to tell you about the window button switcher horrors sometime :) | 01:48 |
| === Fubar [FTTP@207-38-252-211.c3-0.wsd-ubr1.qens-wsd.ny.cable.rcn.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Fubar | hello | 01:49 |
| Fubar | how is ubuntu coming along ? :) | 01:49 |
| lamont | jdub: yeah, all I want is the 'be stupid' option | 01:49 |
| jdub | lamont: otherwise known as the "never actually fix the problem" option :) | 01:49 |
| lamont | jdub: when I run an xterm from inside another window, who's to say that I _WANT_ it to take focus. In fact, I have a case or 3 where I specifically _DON'T_ want focus given to the child window. | 01:51 |
| lamont | and there is _NO_WAY_ for metacity to know what I'm currently thinking. | 01:51 |
| lamont | so it's not "never fix the problem", it's "quit trying to read my )*&%*&^P mind" | 01:51 |
| jdub | lamont: depends on your activity in the former window | 01:53 |
| lamont | no. | 01:53 |
| jdub | heh | 01:53 |
| lamont | in the use case in question, I just ran a script. | 01:53 |
| lamont | it launches 12 xterms. | 01:53 |
| lamont | I want focus to stay in the current window | 01:53 |
| lamont | because I'm not done there | 01:53 |
| jdub | so if you're not done, and there is activity, hooray for doing the right thing | 01:54 |
| jdub | also, xterm makes life harder | 01:54 |
| jdub | so perhaps things that don't grok the standards can be special cased | 01:54 |
| mdz | Kamion: I don't suppose you're still around | 01:54 |
| jdub | there are lots of options here beyond reading your mind | 01:54 |
| lamont | did I mention the sleep 1 after each of the 12 xterm launches? | 01:54 |
| jdub | you need to write down the use case so someone has a chance of analysing it | 01:54 |
| lamont | I _WANT_ focus to be under the mouse. period. | 01:54 |
| lamont | if I _WANT_ it somewhere else, I want to have to move the mouse. | 01:55 |
| lamont | that use case is specifically and diametrically opposed to metacity's current design | 01:55 |
| jdub | dude, people have said the same thing about "I _WANT_ the window switcher button applet to be X pixels wide!" | 01:55 |
| lamont | window switcher button applet? | 01:55 |
| jdub | suddenly, when it "just works", they stop complaining because they don't even realise there's a problem | 01:55 |
| jdub | 10:03 < lamont> that use case is specifically and diametrically opposed to | 01:56 |
| jdub | metacity's current design | 01:56 |
| jdub | ^ "current behaviour" | 01:56 |
| jdub | that's why we fix things to just work | 01:56 |
| jdub | if you don't provide use cases, that can't happen | 01:56 |
| jdub | if we keep making options so we don't have to actually fix the software, that can't happne | 01:56 |
| lamont | I guess the real issue is that I fail to see that it's a problem. :-) | 01:57 |
| jdub | sure, the answer might end up being, "we don't believe this use case is important" or "we can't deal with that when you're using xterm" | 01:57 |
| jdub | dude | 01:57 |
| jdub | you have a problem with the current behaviour | 01:57 |
| jdub | that is what we're talking about | 01:57 |
| === eruin [~eruin@eruin.user] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| jdub | if it weren't a problem, you wouldn't raise it | 01:57 |
| lamont | I meant I have some difficulty understanding why stealing focus is actually _solving_ a problem. | 01:58 |
| jdub | dude | 01:58 |
| jdub | the whole point of the work being done on metacity is "focus stealing avoidance" | 01:58 |
| lamont | jdub: which is based fundamentally on the decision that stealing focus is a good thing (under the right circumstances) | 01:59 |
| jdub | yes, absolutley | 01:59 |
| jdub | when i run an application | 01:59 |
| jdub | i expect to be able to type into it | 01:59 |
| jdub | without changing the focus | 01:59 |
| jdub | however, when i run an application and am still doing things elsewhere, | 01:59 |
| lamont | so my read of it is "we've decided to break things in the general case because we think this is a neat feature, and now we're going to special case the hell out of things for where we have to agree that it's a bad thing" | 01:59 |
| jdub | i don't really want it stealing the focus | 01:59 |
| jdub | no | 01:59 |
| lamont | ah, therein lies the difference. | 02:00 |
| lamont | when I run an application, I expect to move the mouse into that window before I type. | 02:00 |
| lamont | That's why I have FOCUS=MOUSE. | 02:00 |
| jdub | okay, so imagine you have a bug in a piece of software | 02:00 |
| jdub | like ls | 02:00 |
| === sivang [~sivang@80.179.93.130.forward.012.net.il] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| jdub | it works under strace | 02:00 |
| jdub | but never works on its own | 02:00 |
| jdub | so you decide that it's easier for people to run it in strace | 02:00 |
| jdub | instead of fixing the bug | 02:00 |
| jdub | when it comes to behavioural bugs | 02:01 |
| lamont | jdub: I decided that it's easier for _ME_ to run it that way. | 02:01 |
| jdub | it is better to fix the problem than provide an option to 'unbreak me' | 02:01 |
| lamont | the whole thing is about letting the user _DECIDE_ how he wants it to behave/ | 02:01 |
| lamont | and I can' | 02:01 |
| lamont | t | 02:01 |
| jdub | oh man | 02:01 |
| jdub | right | 02:01 |
| jdub | now i have to tell you about the window switcher buttons | 02:01 |
| === sivang [~sivang@80.179.93.130.forward.012.net.il] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| jdub | during the gnome 2.0 development process | 02:02 |
| jdub | all the options for the window list were removed | 02:02 |
| jdub | and work began on making it 'just work' | 02:02 |
| jdub | there was a massive, massive flamewar | 02:02 |
| jdub | because people used the options to make it work correctly | 02:03 |
| lamont | I can see that | 02:03 |
| jdub | in various use cases | 02:03 |
| jdub | after about two months | 02:03 |
| jdub | the flamewar died down | 02:03 |
| jdub | this was before there was a general understanding of how to do 'just works' development | 02:04 |
| jdub | so no one actually realised that it had improved to such an extent that it did the right thing | 02:04 |
| jdub | and wasn't punching them in the face | 02:04 |
| jdub | so they didn't think to complain | 02:04 |
| jdub | so if the focus issues in metacity are punching you in the face, | 02:05 |
| jdub | you need to explain your use cases | 02:05 |
| jdub | so they can be taken into account | 02:05 |
| lamont | right. | 02:05 |
| jdub | even if you think they're totally impossible to handle | 02:05 |
| lamont | my use case is 15? years of having whatever window is under the mouse be the one that has focus. period. | 02:06 |
| lamont | yeah - it's not what the new user wants. But it's what my brain is trained to. | 02:06 |
| lamont | and hands | 02:06 |
| jdub | because seriously, those window list option removals made "using gnome impossible" for so many people... until it just worked. | 02:06 |
| jdub | lamont: i'm not going to solve your problem, but consider a change in behaviour in sloppy focus mode. | 02:07 |
| lamont | so when an app pops up a window and that suddenly has focus clear across the screen until I either (1) leave and reenter the current window, or (2) left click, then it messes with my head | 02:07 |
| jdub | lamont: this is not impossible. | 02:07 |
| jdub | if you think it's impossible, your brain is closed to clever ways to fix it. | 02:07 |
| lamont | jdub: I still move the mouse across the screen to the (now focused) window. | 02:08 |
| sivang | jdub,lamont : what bug# are you discussing? | 02:08 |
| lamont | I expect that with time, I'll untrain 15 years of training, but that's a productivity pain in the meantime | 02:08 |
| jdub | there's no bug# | 02:08 |
| jdub | lamont: i don't think you're listening. :) | 02:08 |
| lamont | sivang: the bug is that I expect focus to remain under the mouse at all times, and metacity is being smart. | 02:08 |
| jdub | no dude | 02:09 |
| jdub | that's not the bug | 02:09 |
| lamont | jdub: you're saying that metacity could/should be taught to better understand when it should move focus to the new window. I understand that. | 02:09 |
| sivang | jdub : Oh, you mean where ever you put the moust there should be the focus set? | 02:09 |
| jdub | by explaining it that way, you're ignoring behaviour | 02:09 |
| lamont | sivang: that's how I've operated since X10. | 02:09 |
| lamont | jdub: OK. metacity should better understand when it should not move focus to the new window. | 02:10 |
| eruin | you guys ever tried rightclicking the desktop, opening a terminal, then doing the same thing again? | 02:10 |
| eruin | none of the windows have focus. | 02:10 |
| lamont | eruin: under metacity, the last terminal launched has focus | 02:10 |
| eruin | the first terminal gets focus, but when you open the second one - none of them get it | 02:10 |
| lamont | not here | 02:11 |
| jdub | the terminal is not getting focus here | 02:11 |
| jdub | only when i move the mouse over it | 02:11 |
| eruin | mine doesn't get focus until I click it | 02:11 |
| === lamont hasn't quite upgraded the desktop machine (this one) to hoary. That's inplan for tonight | ||
| jdub | lamont: ... so you're talking about warty's metacity? | 02:12 |
| lamont | jdub: is the second phrasing more consistant with what you want me to say? | 02:12 |
| lamont | yeah | 02:12 |
| jdub | sheeeeesh | 02:12 |
| jdub | dude | 02:12 |
| lamont | jdub: but either way.... | 02:12 |
| jdub | no | 02:12 |
| jdub | not either wya | 02:12 |
| lamont | When metacity should better understand when it should not move focus to the new window? never. (my use case) | 02:12 |
| jdub | it is specifically not enabled in warty's metacity | 02:12 |
| lamont | huh??? | 02:13 |
| lamont | it==?? | 02:13 |
| jdub | the focus stealing prevention changes | 02:13 |
| lamont | ok. I'll bitch after I upgrade. | 02:13 |
| eruin | what metacity should do (imo anyway) is give focus to user-opened windows by default, _unless_ the user started using another window while the opened window was still being opened | 02:13 |
| mirak | anyone know where I can find the 2.6.8 kernel that was used before beeing updated ? | 02:14 |
| lamont | (apt-get -udy dist-upgrade finally finished... that is to say, the local mirror finally came current.) | 02:14 |
| mdz | mirak: there never was a 2.6.8 in Ubuntu; we started with 2.6.8.1 | 02:14 |
| mirak | it was updated with dis-upgrade but I have troubles with it | 02:14 |
| mirak | mdz, 2.6.8.1 yes | 02:14 |
| mirak | mdz, 2.6.8.1-3 | 02:14 |
| Fubar | question for ubuntu developers: Does Ubuntu have any plans to coordinate issues with the hardware manufacturers if they provide their own drivers? | 02:14 |
| eruin | I'm sure I saw my 2.6.8.1-kernel get upgraded last week or so | 02:14 |
| mdz | Fubar: yes | 02:14 |
| mirak | mdz, it was just changed two days ago | 02:14 |
| mirak | I need the old version | 02:15 |
| mirak | lilo can't boot the new one, and I have problems with grub | 02:15 |
| Fubar | mdz: See i had an issue for my video system, and im not sure if its an x or driver bug | 02:15 |
| mdz | mirak: unless you're on sparc, it hasn't had any significant changes since 2004-11-02 | 02:15 |
| mirak | mdz, or I could use warty 2.6.8 | 02:15 |
| eruin | well there be an athlon(xp)-specific kernel or is that pointless (ie there wouldn't be any gain from k7) | 02:15 |
| eruin | will* | 02:15 |
| mirak | mdz, it was updated two days ago | 02:15 |
| Fubar | mdz: i reported it and daniel thought it was due to the video card drivers... | 02:15 |
| mdz | mirak: <mdz> mirak: unless you're on sparc, it hasn't had any significant changes since 2004-11-02 | 02:16 |
| Fubar | said he was making changes to upstream | 02:16 |
| Fubar | but that there was nothing he could do | 02:16 |
| mirak | mdz, significant dosn't mean no change | 02:16 |
| Fubar | so all these issues i take it go back into the system to see if they can be fixed later on right ? | 02:16 |
| mirak | mdz, I told you it was dist upgraded two days ago | 02:16 |
| mdz | mirak: for i386, it was a recompile | 02:16 |
| mdz | zero code changes | 02:16 |
| mirak | mdz, then something changed | 02:16 |
| mirak | I don't know what | 02:17 |
| Fubar | ubuntu very nice on balance for linux distro | 02:17 |
| mirak | maybe some options where changed | 02:17 |
| mdz | probably an issue with your initrd; this really isn't the place to discuss it | 02:17 |
| mirak | mdz, if you don't use lilo you probably not noticed it | 02:17 |
| mirak | why not | 02:17 |
| mdz | /topic | 02:18 |
| mirak | i didn't got another answer than reinstall the system | 02:18 |
| eruin | is there a mailing list I could follow to know things like why nvidia 6629 isn't in restricted yet, etc? | 02:18 |
| mirak | on #ubuntu | 02:18 |
| mdz | eruin: ubuntu-devel | 02:18 |
| eruin | cheers | 02:18 |
| mirak | mdz, I just need to know what changed that's all | 02:18 |
| mdz | mirak: I've told you, and you don't believe me | 02:19 |

| mira1 | mdz: ok, I managed to boot with lilo | 02:24 |
| mira1 | I don't exactly what make it work | 02:24 |
| mira1 | I have increased the ramdisk size option, used text mode for lilo and reduced frame buffer resolution | 02:25 |
| mira1 | what's the best bet ? :) | 02:25 |
| sivang | btw, has anyone seen the segfault with unmounting fs when power off? this happens to me every time I shutdown both on hoary in the laptop and the desktop machine. | 02:26 |
| eruin | would using offical nvidia packages be problematic in hoary? | 02:26 |
| eruin | sivang: yes, i get that too | 02:27 |
| eruin | or rather "egmentation fault" <-- cute ;) | 02:27 |
| eruin | started happening pretty recently | 02:27 |
| sivang | eruin : yeah, hehe, on my desktop it somehow shuts down the HD and restart it about 2 times before actually managing to shutdown | 02:28 |
| jdub | sivang: #4333? | 02:28 |
| sivang | jdub : checking :) | 02:28 |
| eruin | looks the same | 02:30 |
| eruin | I get a message about "none busy" before the segfault, and no "/ is busy" though | 02:30 |
| jdub | might want to add a comment saying it's happening in ubuntu too | 02:30 |
| Mithrandir | is it possible to get gnome to always save the configuration when logging out? | 02:31 |
| sivang | jdub : exactly. | 02:31 |
| jdub | Mithrandir: gnome-session-properties | 02:31 |
| Mithrandir | ah, great. | 02:32 |
| Mithrandir | now I just need to clean up a bit and this will be all happiness | 02:32 |
| jdub | also, gnome-session-save --gui | 02:32 |
| jdub | run that from the applications menu | 02:32 |
| jdub | when you're set up nicely | 02:32 |
| lamont | jdub: so what all am I breaking with this upgrade, anyway? | 02:34 |
| sivang | jdub : when choosing "save settings on logout" that also saves sessino settings right? at least it did on sarge.. | 02:34 |
| eruin | that saves nicely here | 02:34 |
| jdub | yes it does | 02:35 |
| jdub | lamont: to hoary? not a huge amount | 02:35 |
| jdub | lamont: i don't imagine you use evo :) | 02:35 |
| lamont | what's that? | 02:35 |
| lamont | :-) | 02:35 |

| eruin | right, off to upgrade nvidia.. I might just be back ;) | 02:39 |
| mirak | ok, the problem was probably the menu mode in lilo | 02:39 |
| sivang | jdub : btw, just wanted to tell you - hoary is superbo in this machine ever since I remaoved hal , as just disabling the media detection option did not always work. :) it's plain pleasure at 1400x1050 | 02:41 |
| jdub | sivang: try installing the new version | 02:41 |
| sivang | jdub : on the latest upgrade? | 02:42 |
| jdub | yeah | 02:42 |
| jdub | 0.4.2 | 02:42 |
| sivang | jfub : k, I'll check, is there comments on the bug fix somwhere? our bugzilla/gnome's ? | 02:42 |

| bluefoxicy | mdz: do you know if shipping to the US requires it? | 05:17 |
| mdz | bluefoxicy: no, I don't | 05:17 |
| bluefoxicy | will updating the info update previous orders that weren't yet shipped? | 05:17 |
| mdz | if it's required, I imagine mako would have shipit reject requests which didn't include a phone number | 05:18 |
| bluefoxicy | k | 05:18 |
| bluefoxicy | well it didn't reject me but of course can't track individual order status | 05:18 |
| bluefoxicy | any ideas how long this is gonna take to ship? I ordered yesterday, rough estimate or 'We do 'em in fixed size batches and you're qued"? | 05:18 |
| jdub | calc: nice blog entry. :) | 05:20 |
| calc | :) | 05:21 |
| calc | i think i annoyed some kde people reading planetkde ;) | 05:21 |
| calc | it was the top headline on there for over 12hr | 05:21 |
| bluefoxicy | can I see? :P | 05:21 |
| calc | http://www.cheney.cx/site/blog/ | 05:21 |
| bluefoxicy | heh | 05:24 |
| bluefoxicy | I want to see a desktop environment like MediaPortal | 05:24 |
| bluefoxicy | i.e. it takes over your screen XD | 05:25 |
| mdz | bluefoxicy: they're done in batches of course, but I'm fairly sure the batches include some padding, so I really can't say | 05:25 |
| bluefoxicy | i just think it'd be neat to have windows docked every which way | 05:25 |
| bluefoxicy | mdz: ok | 05:25 |
| mdz | my order (queued before the Warty release) arrived this week | 05:25 |
| bluefoxicy | so, month or two? | 05:25 |
| mdz | I can't say | 05:25 |
| calc | i got mine last week also | 05:26 |
| bluefoxicy | when hoary comes out I should talk to my college and show them a warty live cd | 05:26 |
| bluefoxicy | and ask them if they want to hand them out free | 05:26 |
| bluefoxicy | if they say yes I'mma order 1000 :P | 05:26 |

| bluefoxicy | "1000?! DUDE we do this FREE >:(" ". . but my college said they'd hand them out. . . " " o_o oh, nm then" | 05:28 |
| bluefoxicy | of course | 05:28 |
| bluefoxicy | the CDs are very pretty | 05:28 |
| bluefoxicy | so you'd get people thinking it was AOL 10.0 | 05:28 |
| bluefoxicy | and they'd try to install it | 05:28 |
| mdz | we will ask for confirmation if you request a huge number of CDs | 05:29 |
| bluefoxicy | and call AOL, complaining that AOL erased their hard disks | 05:29 |
| mdz | some people do it just to see what will happen | 05:29 |
| bluefoxicy | mdz: to prevent against typos and. . yeah, and idiots :P | 05:29 |
| bluefoxicy | dun worry | 05:29 |
| bluefoxicy | I ordered ~20 because I figured it'd be within limits of "Shipping costs more than the CDs so order a lot" | 05:29 |
| bluefoxicy | I'll try to hand them out though | 05:29 |
| bluefoxicy | if they vanish I'm ordering more next time; if I can get a school or college to hand 'em out I might make a fairly large order | 05:30 |
| tseng | i asked our lug coordinator to get a batch | 05:30 |
| tseng | since it still seems to be open | 05:30 |
| bluefoxicy | but I'm not ordering excess I don't think I can get distributed. | 05:30 |

| fabbione | daniels: what do you mean you are doing -2 with the asm stuff? | 12:01 |
| daniels | fabbione: remember how I told you that we needed to ship asm-*, not just asm-$(ARCH)? | 12:01 |
| daniels | fabbione: and gave you the updated find stuff | 12:01 |
| daniels | fabbione: i can't upload l-r-m until that's in | 12:02 |
| fabbione | daniels: yes i remember, but hold on a sec | 12:02 |
| daniels | ok | 12:03 |
| fabbione | are you modifying debian/post-install ? | 12:04 |
| fabbione | daniels: ? | 12:05 |
| daniels | yes | 12:05 |
| daniels | so it grabs asm-* rather than asm-{generic,$(ARCH)} | 12:06 |
| fabbione | what else do you have in the changelog? | 12:06 |
| daniels | right now, nothing | 12:06 |
| daniels | but might be grabbing a patch to fix futex hangs | 12:06 |
| Kamion | how much of a size increase is there to grabbing asm-*? | 12:07 |
| fabbione | i think i did add something about futex... | 12:07 |
| fabbione | daniels: i have some other changes pending.. like including the last 2 patches you gave to me | 12:08 |
| daniels | Kamion: a reasonable amount, I'd imagine | 12:08 |
| fabbione | daniels: and possibly changing one config option about USB_BLK_DEV | 12:08 |
| daniels | Kamion: (how many people have l-h installed tho?) | 12:08 |
| Kamion | daniels: it's on the CD | 12:08 |
| Kamion | (hence why I care) | 12:08 |
| fabbione | daniels: in any case 2.6.9 won't be the default kernel for a while | 12:08 |
| daniels | Kamion: so, um, between all the architectures and flavours -- a lot | 12:08 |
| Kamion | fabbione: uh ... the installer has already switched | 12:09 |
| fabbione | Kamion: it has a bunch of regressions that we need to sort out first | 12:09 |
| fabbione | usb storage is basically foobar | 12:09 |
| jdub | fabbione: if it's not default, it won't be tested | 12:09 |
| daniels | Kamion: i'll tell you when I have debs built | 12:09 |
| fabbione | jdub: please agree with mdz on this, not with me | 12:09 |
| Kamion | fabbione: oh. does that mean that my attempts to make USB installations work now are toast? | 12:09 |
| fabbione | jdub: he decided so.. not me | 12:09 |
| fabbione | Kamion: possibly | 12:10 |
| Kamion | fabbione: or does it depend on my hardware? | 12:10 |
| fabbione | Kamion: it depends what driver your hardware needs | 12:10 |
| fabbione | Kamion: mdz has problems with ehci_whatevername | 12:10 |
| fabbione | and he is not the only one | 12:10 |
| Kamion | oh, so maybe USB 1.1 is OK | 12:10 |
| fabbione | probably uhci is working fine | 12:10 |
| carlos | seb128: ping | 12:10 |
| fabbione | daniels: if we ship asm-* for kernel-headers, wouldn't be possible to make it arch: all? or do we still need some arch specific bits in it? | 12:11 |
| daniels | i suppose we could have linux-headers-2.6.9-1-asm as arch:all | 12:12 |
| daniels | Kamion: out of curiousity, why's it on the cd? | 12:12 |
| Kamion | daniels: so people can build third-party modules they need to access the network | 12:12 |
| daniels | Kamion: ahr | 12:13 |
| Kamion | it's for convenience; it's been quite popular | 12:13 |
| fabbione | hmmmm | 12:13 |
| elmo | I thought l-k-h had arch specific stuff that was generated at build time? | 12:13 |
| fabbione | elmo: that's what we need to check | 12:13 |
| daniels | elmo: talking about lh, not lkh | 12:13 |
| daniels | but yes, that's what I'm looking at now, is whether asm-* gets stomped on at build-time | 12:14 |
| daniels | istr asm-* being safely arch:all, but linux/ being specific | 12:14 |
| Kamion | linux/ contains stuff like config.h | 12:14 |
| daniels | right | 12:14 |
| elmo | a tar.gz of asm* is only 3Mb - is that a big deal? | 12:15 |
| fabbione | daniels: it would require a bunch of changes | 12:15 |
| daniels | fabbione: go on | 12:17 |
| daniels | elmo: ah, that's pretty good | 12:17 |
| fabbione | daniels: yes i am checking... | 12:17 |
| fabbione | linux-headers-2.6.9-1 contains asm-generic | 12:18 |
| fabbione | and all the common files for linux-headers-2.6.9-1-$flavour | 12:18 |
| daniels | so we could presumably shuffle asm-* into there | 12:18 |
| fabbione | linux-headers-2.6.9-1-$flavour contains the specific $flavour bits | 12:18 |

| Kamion | elmo: not bad | 12:19 |
| fabbione | hmmm no | 12:19 |
| fabbione | just a second... | 12:19 |
| daniels | fabbione: if you don't want 1642, i'm going to close it | 12:20 |
| fabbione | lrwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2004-12-01 17:57:11 ./usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.9-1-686/include/asm-i386 -> ../../linux-headers-2.6.9-1/inc | 12:20 |
| fabbione | daniels: you can include all the asm into linux-headers-2.6.9-1 | 12:20 |
| fabbione | and create the proper symlinks in linux-headers-2.6.9-1-$flavour | 12:21 |
| fabbione | that would increase the package of 1/2MB | 12:21 |
| fabbione | in only one package | 12:21 |
| fabbione | Kamion: would that be acceptable? | 12:21 |
| daniels | fabbione: that's what I'm suggesting | 12:21 |
| fabbione | daniels: sorry.. i understood that you were going to stick them into -$flavour | 12:22 |
| fabbione | daniels: since they are $flavour indipendent it's ok with me | 12:23 |
| fabbione | size wise too | 12:23 |
| Kamion | fabbione: as far as CD size goes, sure, haven't really thought about the rest | 12:23 |
| Kamion | although I might hold you down in Mataro until you find 2MB of savings elsewhere :-) | 12:23 |
| fabbione | daniels: let's make -2 with only that change and please show me an interdiff before you upload (since for a few weeks i will be the kernel maintainer) | 12:24 |
| fabbione | Kamion: ehhehe this is only thanks to that r3str1ct3d-m0dul35 | 12:24 |
| daniels | fabbione: do you want me to do the two modules as well? | 12:24 |
| daniels | after all, i did them for .8.1 ... | 12:24 |
| fabbione | daniels: no because i have them merged here already | 12:25 |
| fabbione | daniels: and i want to prepare a -3 with other stuff too once we are in mataro | 12:25 |

| fabbione | my normal env_cmnd = something | 02:46 |
| fabbione | because it needs to override for all packages | 02:46 |
| fabbione | for the package specific foo, i don't need the override | 02:47 |
| fabbione | so either is '' or something else that disable the override | 02:47 |
| lamont | and you want to specify a blank for the specific package | 02:47 |
| fabbione | exactly | 02:47 |

| lamont | oh. that's evil. | 02:49 |

| seb128 | jdub: I don't think so, but we use the standard paths so we don't need to set them | 03:14 |
| Kamion | elmo: isn't it just | 03:14 |
| jdub | seb128: even for gnome-menus? | 03:15 |
| seb128 | I've tried to find a gaim bug yesterday, no way | 03:15 |
| seb128 | jdub: works fine here yes | 03:15 |
| daniels | elmo: the patch tracker's even worse | 03:15 |
| jdub | cool | 03:15 |
| jdub | nice to avoid that damage | 03:15 |
| jdub | i couldn't think where they'd be set ;) | 03:16 |
| daniels | jdub: /etc/profile? | 03:16 |
| jdub | daniels: ick | 03:16 |
| daniels | Kamion: | 03:22 |
| daniels | COPTS+= -DAH_BYTE_ORDER=AH_BIG_ENDIAN -DAH_REGOPS_FUNC | 03:22 |
| daniels | COPTS+= -mbig-endian | 03:22 |
| daniels | COPTS+= -msoft-float -ffixed-r2 | 03:22 |
| daniels | do those make sense on power*? | 03:22 |
| Kamion | hm, I aggressively avoid remembering which endianness my processor is | 03:22 |
| Kamion | but yes, Linux/powerpc is big-endian | 03:23 |
| Kamion | -msoft-float is valid though I'm not quite sure why you'd use it; bug avoidance? | 03:24 |
| Kamion | -ffixed-r2 is valid in theory but I've no idea what effect it has | 03:24 |
| daniels | it's apparently only been tested on some ibm machine | 03:24 |
| Kamion | RS/6000s and Macs shouldn't differ at that kind of level | 03:24 |
| Kamion | where is this, anyway? | 03:25 |
| Kamion | l-r-m? | 03:25 |
| daniels | madwifi, yah | 03:25 |
| Kamion | daniels: ah, yes, you definitely want -msoft-float then | 03:25 |
| Kamion | (no fp in the kernel) | 03:25 |

| === daniels applauds. | ||
| haggai | ooh that's a bit tight | 03:43 |
| daniels | basically, it's going 'let me use some crappy range that won't fail on any moonitor ever, despite the fact I should be pulling this stuff out of the BIOS' | 03:44 |
| daniels | so, if you dump HorizSync/VertRefresh from XF86Config-4 into xorg.conf, it should Just Work | 03:44 |
| === daniels grabs a small axe and stomps off in the direction of the savage driver. | ||
| daniels | * Instead, I'll abandon any attempt to automatically limit the | 03:45 |
| daniels | * clock, and add an LCDClock option to XF86Config. Some day, | 03:45 |
| daniels | * I should come back to this. | 03:45 |

| daniels | * On many machines, the attempt to read DDC information via VBE puts the | 03:55 |

| daniels | * This is a complete mystery to me. | 03:55 |

| fabbione | elmo: why did you take down the max rsync connections to 15? | 03:56 |
| daniels | haggai: does Option "LCDClock" "49" work for you, if you remove HorizSync/VertRefresh? | 03:56 |
| haggai | daniels: (II) SAVAGE(0): Detected clock range: 10000-220000 | 03:57 |

| Kamion | mxpxpod: yes, it's fairly common | 05:02 |
| mxpxpod | Kamion: any quick fix? | 05:03 |
| Kamion | disable udev-mtab I *think*, but check what it does before blindly doing that | 05:03 |
| mxpxpod | how do I disable that? | 05:03 |
| Kamion | it's an init script ... | 05:03 |
| === Mithrandir complains about his 2.5Mbyte/sec download speed.. hoary upgrades takes a while.. | ||
| === daniels stabs Mithrandir. | ||
| mxpxpod | Kamion: so, rm /etc/rcS.d/S36udev-mtab? | 05:04 |
| Kamion | mxpxpod: I think so; that'll make it come back at the next upgrade but that's probably what you wanted; by the next upgrade I'd hope it'll be fixed | 05:04 |
| Mithrandir | daniels: it's only at about 1.2 now. | 05:05 |
| mxpxpod | Kamion: basically, it binds /dev to /.dev and mounts the tmpfs if it's not in /etc/mtab | 05:05 |
| Kamion | mxpxpod: right | 05:05 |
| mxpxpod | Kamion: but shouldn't the tmpfs be mounted already once udev starts up? | 05:05 |
| bob2 | Mithrandir: I h8 u. | 05:06 |
| Kamion | mxpxpod: that's not the problem; best guess in the bug reports so far is that as the system is shutting down umount unmounts /dev and then gets confused and crashes | 05:06 |
| bob2 | and trashes mtab? | 05:06 |

| jdub | mdz: but it seems to be intel driver related, perhaps | 06:34 |
| mdz | jdub: e100, e1000 or ipw2200? | 06:36 |
| thom | jdub: umount segfault? | 06:36 |
| mdz | not that it makes any sense whatsoever for it to be driver-specific | 06:36 |
| mdz | I don't think the kernel is unmounting filesystems via a network driver | 06:36 |
| thom | it happens on ppc, too | 06:36 |
| jdub | thom: no, the "unmount all filesystems when you bring the network down" one | 06:37 |
| jdub | 4330 i think | 06:37 |
| thom | jdub: ahr, yes | 06:37 |
| thom | bob2 was seeing that on ppc | 06:37 |
| jdub | i'm using the mjg driver, too | 06:37 |
| jdub | ber | 06:37 |
| jdub | kernel | 06:37 |
| thom | umounting /proc is pretty special | 06:37 |
| daniels | yeah | 06:38 |
| jdub | it also crashes the system monitor applet | 06:38 |
| jdub | (the unmounting of /proc) | 06:38 |
| thom | jdub: yep | 06:39 |
| thom | and gnome-cpufreq-applet | 06:39 |
| mxpxpod | speaking of the system monitor crashing... when I load up gnome for the first time, the system monitor in my panel crashes and asks to be reloaded... then it doesn't have a problem after I reload it | 06:45 |

| mako | jdub: hey there | 06:55 |
| mako | jdub: the label stuff is nasty | 06:56 |
| mako | jdub: our shipping company doesn't allow us to use any non-ascii characters | 06:56 |
| mako | jdub: so the way we're guessing has improved but still sucks | 06:56 |
| jdub | heh | 06:57 |
| mako | i mean, the point is basically to make "correct enough so that it gets there" :) | 07:01 |
| mako | jdub: thanks for the pointer, i've replied though | 07:01 |
| mako | and emailed danilo | 07:03 |
| jdub | cool | 07:05 |
| jdub | mako: was actually mostly interested in his l10n/i18n bugs... ;) | 07:05 |
| mako | jdub: well me too.. some are low hanging fruit.. some are more problematic | 07:06 |
| jdub | "involves OOo" -> problematic :) | 07:06 |
| mako | jdub: in the email i said i'd work with him to file and follow-up on the bugs | 07:06 |
| mako | yeah, basically | 07:06 |
| mako | excellent, i was going to check to see if there was a non-latin input method bof.. and there is! and i'm leading it! | 07:08 |
| mako | dude, hoary input is going to *rock* | 07:08 |
| jdub | you wanna do iiiiiim? | 07:08 |
| mako | we need to someone get iiiiiim to work with dsssssssssl | 07:09 |
| jdub | heh | 07:09 |
| mako | i need to play with it more.. i've been seeing awesome things with uim lately in gnome | 07:10 |
| jdub | there certainly seems to be a lot of uim support | 07:10 |
| mako | my non-latin languages (japanese and amharic mostly) basically rock | 07:10 |
| jdub | from the various l10n projects | 07:10 |
| jdub | the koreans have some nice ones | 07:10 |
| mako | *2* amharic input methods(!) | 07:10 |
| mdz | whoa | 07:10 |
| jdub | they also have a korean dictionary client | 07:10 |
| mako | and a tigrinya input method! | 07:10 |
| jdub | which they called "gdick" | 07:10 |
| mdz | a cloop-compressed ext2 filesystem came out smaller than a cramfs filesystem | 07:10 |
| mako | right, i've heard of gdick | 07:11 |
| mdz | I guess the block size makes a big difference | 07:11 |
| mako | i know enough hindi to input it and see if it's working | 07:11 |
| mako | and i *used* to be able to read korean script | 07:11 |
| mako | it was only 5-6 years ago so i think i could catch up again | 07:11 |
