sivang | mdz: I want to fill up the localization section also. | 12:26 |
dholbach | sivang: wow... if you pronounce "oviderzane" in english, it's nearly right :-) | 12:26 |

jdub | whoa | 03:49 |
sivang | can someone suggest why I am not able to run g-s-t::users-admin from within my hoary chroot? | 04:19 |
sivang | jdub: you have an idea why is needed to do in order to run X/GNOME clients under a chroot? | 04:24 |
jdub | a crap load of everything | 04:26 |
jdub | you're better off using a debootstrapped chroot than a minimal chroot | 04:27 |
jdub | or uml or something | 04:27 |
jdub | first problem is that you won't have access to the display | 04:27 |
daniels | jdub: well, if you bind-mount $HOME, you get ~/.Xauthority | 04:28 |
daniels | (don't forget to bind-mount /tmp/.X11-unix for the transport) | 04:28 |
jdub | yeah, but that's just the start ;) | 04:28 |
daniels | well, running GNOME can be a pain | 04:31 |
daniels | never really did work out how to run multiple GNOME sessions as the same user on the same machine | 04:32 |
daniels | (different $DISPLAYs, obviously) | 04:32 |
jdz_ | oh, thats a big proublem | 04:38 |
jdz_ | with a 2nd gnome login, most of the applets are dead, genearly looks horable, etc | 04:38 |
sivang | eh well, I was not really looking to run the whole session, only some selected apps. | 04:45 |
sivang | jdub: ot | 04:48 |
sivang | erghh, crappy keyboard. | 04:48 |
sivang | jdub , daniels : it's amazing how much I learn that I do not yet know just from you answering my questions :) what is bind-mount? | 04:49 |
sivang | (hmm, maybe mounting my original home folder from the chroot env?...) | 04:50 |
jdz_ | sivang: mount -o bind /source-location /destination | 04:50 |
daniels | sivang: it basically glues two locations together | 04:51 |
daniels | sivang: i have /home/daniels/chroot/hoary-newx/home bind-mounted to /home, so it's like an exactly mirror | 04:51 |
daniels | sivang: think like a symlink, but works within chroots, etc | 04:51 |
sivang | daniels: cool, tnx | 04:52 |
sivang | daniels: so then for the duration of the bind mount my original home folder "vanishes" and the chroot one is used instead? | 04:53 |
daniels | sivang: yeah | 04:53 |
jdz_ | They both exist :) | 04:53 |
daniels | /home in the chroot looks exactly like your usual /home | 04:53 |
daniels | (i assume you mean that the original /home you had in your chroot vanishes) | 04:54 |
sivang | yes | 04:54 |
jdz_ | ah, right | 04:54 |
daniels | right | 04:54 |
sivang | daniels: so, any breakage I would create in the chroot's home, basically ruins my own home from the main system... | 04:55 |
sivang | sorry, s/chroot's home/chroot's user home folder/ | 04:55 |
daniels | sivang: correct | 04:56 |
sivang | daniels: ok, tnx++ | 04:57 |
sivang | phew, if you forget the bind mount gnome is also non usable on the other login... | 05:04 |

wasabi_ | There some plan for gcc 4.0 anywhere? | 05:17 |
wasabi_ | =) | 05:17 |
sivang | wasabi_: shush, don't let fabbione here you, he may be already awake...;-) | 05:18 |
wasabi_ | haha | 05:18 |
wasabi_ | I just actually noticed debian has it in experimental. | 05:18 |
sivang | wasabi_: that's like extra breakage sources for sid right? (it's not somthing more unstable then sid IIRC) | 05:19 |
wasabi_ | I bet it's in there because of sarge. | 05:20 |
wasabi_ | woh. it moved. | 05:22 |
sivang | when I have something like that in the debian/rulez, does that mean it uses cdbs? | 05:34 |
sivang | include /usr/share/gnome-pkg-tools/1/rules/uploaders.mk | 05:34 |
sivang | jdub: this is from the g-s-t source pkg. | 05:35 |
ajmitch | it looks similar to cdbs | 05:36 |
ajmitch | but is gnome-pkg-tools | 05:36 |
wasabi_ | That's the peice of the gnome packages that adds the gnome package maintainers to it. | 05:37 |
wasabi_ | It's an odd setup... Debian's pkg-gnome group. | 05:37 |
wasabi_ | Packages have a control.in, with @GNOME_UPLOADERS@ in it. | 05:37 |
wasabi_ | Each member of the pkg-gnome team has their name/email stuck in there. | 05:37 |
sivang | wierd | 05:38 |
sivang | wierd | 05:38 |
wasabi_ | well, it works. It's so each member of the team can upload, but each person can remain the maintainer of their own packages. | 05:38 |
sivang | wasabi_: the control.in is supposed to be als oin that package? I'll look there.. | 05:38 |
wasabi_ | The control.in is in the package that uses gnome-pkg-tools. | 05:39 |
sivang | clean:: | 05:39 |
sivang | sed "s/@GNOME_TEAM@/$(uploaders)/" \ | 05:39 |
sivang | debian/control.in > debian/control | 05:39 |
sivang | yep | 05:40 |
sivang | boy, emacs has such a nice coloring for make files.. | 05:40 |
sivang | wasabi_: basically, all those include file and cdbs's are make file classes right? inherent feature of the make lanugage. | 05:41 |
wasabi_ | yeah | 05:42 |
sivang | wasabi_: then it's really all sums up to what mdz/jdub said, if you start with reading the make manual, everything will look easier after..;-) | 05:42 |
sivang | (you have to finish reading it ofcourse) | 05:42 |
wasabi_ | i never read the thing | 05:44 |
wasabi_ | i still barely grasp it | 05:44 |
=== wasabi_ compiling gcc-4.0 for hoary | ||
sivang | wasabi_: so how do you manage to munge your daily dose of pkgs? | 05:45 |
sivang | cdbs? | 05:46 |
wasabi_ | eh? | 05:46 |
wasabi_ | sometimes. | 05:46 |
wasabi_ | cdbs if possible. | 05:46 |
sivang | wasabi_: and on the other times? ;) | 05:46 |
wasabi_ | For Eclipse, cdbs was impossible. | 05:46 |
wasabi_ | So I learned make. | 05:46 |
wasabi_ | actually basic make is really easy. | 05:46 |
wasabi_ | learning how to set up your rules to actually make a package, and understanding debhelper, is a bit harder. | 05:47 |
sivang | I see. | 05:49 |

sivang | wasabi_: so , a quick question, I have a pacakge, all set and building/installing ok, I just want it to install another file in a specific location, how do I add this to the rules/dh_* commands? | 05:52 |
wasabi_ | just copy it into the temp install directory before you run dh_builddeb | 05:52 |
wasabi_ | probably using "install" | 05:52 |
sivang | ok, I'll try that, tnx. | 05:53 |

HostingGeek | hey my friend just told me a cool feature redhat has and that is /sbin/services is linked to /etc/init.d/ | 07:18 |
HostingGeek | so you do services <app> restart... | 07:18 |
HostingGeek | it makes it a lot easier than typing out /etc/init.d/ | 07:19 |
HostingGeek | even thought there is tab completion | 07:19 |

fabbione | but there were tons of FTBFS due to missing-deps | 08:04 |
ajmitch | alright, seeing plenty of audit messages related to tmpfs.. a good sign, I hope | 08:06 |
daniels | fabbione: hoy crap, that's insane | 08:07 |
fabbione | why? | 08:07 |
daniels | fabbione: i thought about cleaning up my room, but then xorg and l-r-m would lose a week of activity | 08:08 |
fabbione | do you realize that 100% of the big packages are in main? | 08:08 |
daniels | fabbione: the 50% of universe | 08:08 |
daniels | mmm, I suppose | 08:08 |
daniels | but there are still like a few gcc versions | 08:08 |
fabbione | daniels: only 2.. | 08:08 |
fabbione | 2.95 and 3.2 | 08:08 |
fabbione | that for sure are smaller than 3.3 (6 hours to build) | 08:08 |
daniels | not as bad as I thought then | 08:08 |
daniels | heh :) | 08:08 |
fabbione | probably... kernel-image- for sparc | 08:09 |
fabbione | that is relatively big... | 08:09 |
fabbione | but there is not much left really | 08:09 |
daniels | cool, that rocks | 08:09 |
daniels | you get the fun of qt/kde as well | 08:09 |
daniels | ah no wait, qt's in main | 08:09 |
fabbione | and already built :-) | 08:10 |

fabbione | but that needs to be solved manually | 08:10 |
fabbione | = at the really end | 08:10 |
daniels | heh | 08:11 |
fabbione | i need to remember to ask elmo/lamont to publish source-deps | 08:12 |
fabbione | there is one for debian, but i don't think we have one for us | 08:12 |

=== usual [~colin@69.202.36.134] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
ogra | how does one declare a function not implicit ? | 03:27 |
azeem | you #include the correct header file | 03:28 |
azeem | man strndup should tell you which | 03:28 |
thom | ogra: also, strndup isn't portable, it's a gnu extension | 03:29 |
azeem | that's what gnulib is for, I guess | 03:30 |
ogra | thom: its just for my ubuntu lockscreen hack, i doubt it will get used anywhere else....so nongnu wont be a prob | 03:30 |
smurfix | azeem: ? it's in glibc | 03:30 |
thom | ah, fair enough | 03:30 |
azeem | smurfix: or that | 03:31 |
thom | ogra: anyway, string.h and #define _GNU_SOURCE | 03:31 |
jbailey | smurfix: Portability, good. =) | 03:31 |
smurfix | thom: the other way round, actually ;-) | 03:31 |
ogra | great, thanks :-D | 03:31 |
azeem | smurfix: it was my understanding that gnulib includes the gnu extensions so you can have them on non-glibc systems | 03:32 |
mjg59 | Argh. | 03:32 |
mjg59 | There's no real chance of there being ACPI smart battery support integrated into the kernel before Hoary | 03:32 |
mjg59 | Which isn't an issue in itself - we can add it with a patch | 03:33 |
mjg59 | But the smart battery code presents different information in a different place to the control method battery code | 03:33 |
thom | jbailey: i'm planning to start scribbling about server team stuff monday or so; today is building furniture day | 03:33 |
mjg59 | So the battery status app would have to be updated | 03:33 |
mjg59 | Opinions? | 03:33 |
thom | mjg59: "Argh." summed it up quite nicely | 03:33 |
smurfix | azeem: only for non-glibc systems; on Linux it doesn' make sense to duplicate what's already in glibc | 03:33 |
azeem | smurfix: eh, sure | 03:34 |
azeem | thom was talking about portability, though | 03:34 |
jbailey | azeem: That's the general idea. You put in configure hackery so that it uses glibc when possible. | 03:34 |
jbailey | thom: a'ight. It was mostly the, "I'd like to be involved in this, I think I had alot to add"... | 03:34 |
mjg59 | thom: It should be a simple matter of coding | 03:35 |
thom | mjg59: seriously, though, are the benefits of smart battery support worthwhile enough to do this before hoary? | 03:35 |
mjg59 | If we do it, Acer owners get battery status. If we don't, they don't. | 03:35 |
thom | mjg59: ... the "simple matter of coding" list is getting quite long ;-) | 03:35 |
thom | jbailey: nod | 03:35 |
mjg59 | Ha. No, it's just going to be populating some structs in gnome-battery-applet | 03:36 |

jdub | fabbione: hnoapicoary | 03:38 |
fabbione | apic != acpi :) | 03:38 |
jdub | but it's the universal solution :) | 03:38 |
mjg59 | There's also been some progress on the Thinkpad excessive power draw stuff | 03:39 |
fabbione | isn't apic = advanced programmable interrupt controller or something like that? | 03:39 |
mjg59 | fabbione: Yup | 03:39 |
mjg59 | noapic shouldn't be necessary on post-2.6.8 in general - the kernel no longer turns it on unless the BIOS did | 03:40 |

mjg59 | (downside: arse to get the backlight back on afterwards) | 04:21 |
mjg59 | Option 2: Write small module to do Radeon power management | 04:22 |

daniels | mjg59: i like #2 | 04:39 |
mjg59 | daniels: Ok. Easiest way of doing this is to have a module that binds to the radeon PCI ids and has stub PCI suspend/resume routines to set the device to D3 | 04:45 |
mjg59 | Then we just have to try to reboot it on resume | 04:45 |
mjg59 | But I need to speak to benh to find out if that's sufficient | 04:45 |

robertj_ | heya all, question: should I file a bug about the 30 boot fsck | 08:41 |
robertj_ | I mean, it's really no fun for laptops | 08:42 |
ogra | robertj_: who reboots his laptop if suspend works ? | 08:42 |
robertj_ | ogra: well, it's still bad, and mine still does'nt work | 08:43 |
robertj_ | I thought it did | 08:43 |
thom | robertj_: current fsck won't run when you're on battery | 08:43 |
thom | so it's not an issue | 08:43 |
robertj_ | thom: maybe something didn't upgrade right? | 08:43 |
ogra | robertj_: mine neither (because i use nvidia drivers) | 08:43 |
robertj_ | i dist-upgraded less than a week agp | 08:43 |
robertj_ | err ago | 08:43 |
robertj_ | ogra: radeon here | 08:43 |
ogra | robertj_: binary drivers ? | 08:44 |
robertj_ | ogra: whatever ships by default | 08:44 |
robertj_ | but I do have multiverse in so ... | 08:44 |
ogra | robertj_: ah, so the free ones :) | 08:44 |
robertj_ | anything I should check to see what's causing the problem? | 08:45 |

robertj_ | thom: I support a 100 mac users and they have never had any problems with file integrity on OS X except for one issue I heard about where after an upgrade ever drive from a particular manufacturer got corrupted | 08:50 |
robertj_ | thom: on the disk applet it would be a really nice option | 08:50 |
robertj_ | check here to check the disk panel every 30 boots/10 days/whatever | 08:50 |
robertj_ | check here to mail this address when SMART indicates a problem | 08:51 |

thom | that would seem like the optimal solution... | 09:00 |
thom | meh | 09:00 |
robertj_ | thom: why should the fs be randomly corrupted though unless it's a hardware problem? And if it's a hardware problem, wouldn't bringing the machine down for a reboot be the wrong choice of action | 09:01 |

pitti | sivang: this is not what debconf is for | 09:16 |

pitti | sivang: the locale can be created without asking | 09:16 |
ogra | http://ubuntuguide.org/#extrarepositories | 09:16 |
pitti | sivang: but the default locale should not be modified | 09:16 |
pitti | sivang: you can easily set it in gdm, or if you want, with dpkg-reconfigure locales | 09:17 |
sivang | pitti:I know that, but I was thinking maybe there is an automatic way to do this for the "uninitiated" localized distros..;-) | 09:17 |
pitti | sivang: but you can already set the default locale in the installer | 09:18 |
sivang | pitti: ah ok, then, I would love you to show me this - I'd like to create a proof of concept dervied livecd/installer cd | 09:18 |
sivang | pitti: (localized) | 09:18 |
ogra | OMG, anybody following this guide will totally f**ck his system with marillat stable unstable and testing anebled at the same time and the backports in... | 09:19 |
pitti | sivang: but AFAIK the live cd also uses some degenerated sort of installer, right? | 09:19 |
ogra | gah | 09:19 |
sivang | pitti: yes ;-) | 09:19 |
pitti | sivang: so this installer should ask for the default locale | 09:20 |
pitti | sivang: (which is to be put into /etc/environment) | 09:20 |
sivang | pitti: hmm, ok, when the kbd selector is done, this is all redundent. You are right! | 09:20 |
sivang | pitti: (new kbd selector smurifx is working on would guess the person's locale) | 09:20 |
pitti | sivang: s/ask/determine and set it/ | 09:20 |
sivang | pitti: yep, ok, it's all matter of waiting for this to be ready, cool enough. I shall respond to that person post then, explainig this. He is very keen to have this added to the language pack. | 09:21 |
pitti | sivang: as I already replied, I think it makes perfect sense to generate the relevant locales in the langpacks | 09:22 |
sivang | pitti: so you're saying to move the locale generation from the installer to the langpack based on the info that the intelligent kbd chooser put in /etc/evnironment? | 09:25 |
sivang | pitti: (thus eliminating the need for dpkg-reconfigure locales manually) | 09:25 |
=== srbaker [~srbaker@blk-222-184-192.eastlink.ca] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
pitti | sivang: hmm, not quite. /etc/environment handles the default, and this should be set in the installer | 09:26 |
pitti | sivang: and this default can be changed with e. g. dpkg-reconfigure locales | 09:27 |
pitti | sivang: and I am still not sure about who does the locale generations; eventually it might get thrown out of the "locales" package | 09:27 |
sivang | pitti: ok, I just understood from your last email that you don't think that the locale generation should happen on installation of the langpacks.. | 09:34 |
