Mitariohi everyone12:01
sladenKamion: after/before the d-i Other Installed OS detection foo, what would need doing to add a ''reinstate grub MBR'' option.  I've answered two in the last 24hours12:04
Kamionsladen: that sounds like what rescue mode is for12:04
=== tritium [~tritium@12-202-90-180.client.insightBB.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel
sladenKamion: rescue more on the CD?12:04
sladenKamion: rescue mode on the CD?12:05
Kamionyes, boot with 'rescue'12:05
Kamionnot particularly documented yet :)12:05
Kamion('rescue' instead of e.g. 'linux')12:05
Kamiona "reinstate grub MBR" option in the way you're probably thinking is likely to be extremely hard; I think rescue mode is about the only viable way to do it12:06
Kamionso the mini-howto would be: start rescue mode, pick your root partition, run "grub-install '(hd0)'"12:07
Kamionor similar12:07
Kamionit does LVM, too; not software RAID yet12:07

Kamionsladen: it does lack documentation though, and there are still a number of plausible UI improvements12:09
=== Kamion ponders an LVM-on-RAID test installation
sladenis it on the warty CDs, or only on the recent Hoary builds?12:11
Kamiononly recent hoary12:12
Kamionand I made a few UI fixes recently so you really want very recent hoary12:12
Kamionelmo: please sync partman-lvm 3012:12
Kamion(only translation fixes)12:12
thullyHi - I have about 30 reported bugs, however I don't think I'll be testing Hoary anymore (just not enough time, and I want something more stable) - is there anything special I should do on bugzilla?12:17
Kamionwould probably be a good idea to leave a note about that on any of the bugs that are in state NEEDINFO12:17
thullyOK12:28
Kamiontwo physical partitions -> RAID1 -> LVM -> {ext3 /, jfs /home}12:30
=== Kamion wonders how much more complex an installed system he can construct using hoary and still get it to boot

ludidebian's gnome sees fit to keep epiphany as the default browser...01:26
thomtritium: in universe, yes01:26
thomludi: we chose to use firefox; it's more targetted and known in our target audience01:26
mjg59thom: I've got pmi, but no cool logout prompt action (current Hoary)01:27

infinitypitti : So, I rewrote it.  Merry Christmas.08:48
pittiinfinity: uh, sorry for that...08:49
infinityI'm rolling a new upload for Debian right now.08:50
infinityThe new patch is tested to actually work. :)08:50
infinityIt a) enforces safe_mode (yours only enforced open_basedir), and b) covers the case where curl_inti() is called with no args, and CURLOPT_URL is set via curt_setopt instead.08:51

infinityOh, hrm.  I didn't test if you can use mixed case.. (like "FILE:///foo")08:56

pittiHi Mithrandir 09:04
infinitypitti : Look sane to yuo?09:05
infinitypitti : it compiles and all my testcases come out as expected.09:05
infinitypitti : So it can't be that broken. :)09:05
pittiinfinity: yes, but I don't fully understand all function calls of the second part09:05
pittiinfinity: I did not see any obvious errors09:05
infinitypitti : open_basedir is the basedir check, then PG(safe_mode) is asking if we're running in safe_mode, and if so, we do a uid check (in safe_mode, people can't read files that they don't own)09:06
pittiinfinity: why there are two parts in the first place?09:06
pittiinfinity: aren't both cases file:// URLs?09:06
pittiinfinity: i. e. what does CURLOPT_URL mean?09:07
infinitypitti : yes, but curl.c sets CURLOPT_URL in two possible places.  Both need to be covered.09:07
pittiok09:07
infinitypitti : You can either do "curl_init('file:///foo')", or you can do "$handle = curl_init(); curl_setopt($handle, CURLOPT_URL, 'file:///')"09:08

HiddenWolfogra: true, but if you have a few smaller ports that suck in time, or get out of sync with i386, you run into debianish-situations10:02

=== infinity can't imagine why preempt would destroy your X performance, mind you...
deki_bob2, yes i do02:17
deki_bob2, acpi maybe too02:17
bob2I'm not sure why he/she thinks switching to root would change the effect of PREEMPT in any way02:17
bob2right, acpi degrades performance for non-root users02:17

mjg59Reverting to defaults is fine02:17
deki_bob2, can you live me alone please?02:17
KamionI'm certainly not convinced preempt would be a good idea on powerpc, but fortunately we don't enable it on powerpc02:17
deki_bob2, you give me no information at all02:17
mjg59deki_: Why do you think preempt is a problem?02:18
deki_bob2, you only talking one thing: fill a bug and this is not a kernel issuse02:18
bob2I'm just bemused by your insistence on this, when you have no evidence either way.02:18
thommjg59: bah, that kind of sucks02:18
deki_mjg59, cause i have had no such things on systems without preempt02:18
Kamionwe should really turn CONFIG_IKCONFIG or CONFIG_IKCONFIG_PROC or whatever on for all kernels; although it's in /boot anyway02:18
deki_mjg59, look all windows are drowed thery slow02:18
mjg59deki_: If you recompile the Mandrake kernel with preempt, do you have problems?02:18
bob2deki_: yes, I'm not sure why you think ubuntu has a special kernel patch which degrades performance for non-root and only non-root users with PREEMPT02:18
elmoKamion: why?  as you say it's in /boot and if it's in /proc, doesn't it use memory?02:18

deki_can you tell me the possible causes for this problem?02:20
mjg59deki_: If you have a kernel with preempt that is slow and an otherwise identical kernel without preempt that is fast, then it may well be preempt02:20
deki_ok02:20
deki_mjg59, i will try to rebuild the kernel02:20
mjg59But comparing a kernel that's almost a year old with a current one and then concluding that the problem is preempt is mad02:20

mjg59Are you using the same X drivers in both cases?02:20

deki_mjg59, sure not02:21

=== opi [~emil@217.153.156.1] has joined #ubuntu-devel
infinitydeki_ : Decription of the problem, steps you've taken to diagnose/isolate it (mention that you used both X drivers, for instance, if that's the case), etc.02:25
deki_infinity, ok, but i will try to compile custom kernel also and lets see if it would solve it to, maybe :D02:25
infinitydeki_ : Of course, if you can fiddle with some kernel options and make the problem go away, that information would also be helpful.02:25
deki_infinity, ok thx02:26
infinitydeki_ : I'll give 20-to-1 odds it has nothing to do with preempt, but there could be something else kernel-side that's mucking you up.  Stranger things have happened.02:26
deki_infinity, i like ubuntu very much , but all this problems drive me crazy02:26
deki_infinity, right02:26
deki_infinity, i think the same thing02:26
deki_infinity, i have very exotic hardware02:27
infinitydeki_ : What sort of hardware?02:27

deki_0000:00:02.5 IDE interface: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS]  5513 [IDE] 02:28
deki_infinity, geforce 4mx02:28
infinityOkay, that should definitely not be the problem, then.02:28
infinityThe GF2 series (the 4MX is just a refreshed GF2) is probably the best supported anywhere, due to the sheer size of the install base.02:29
deki_correct02:29
deki_i think there is a problem with acpi <-- > pci bus02:29
deki_and similar02:29
deki_but i tryed already switch acpi off02:29
deki_the interesting thing : the mandrake kernel does not have working acpi for my system02:30
infinityDoes it show as sharing any IRQs with ACPI turned off?02:30
deki_infinity, how to see it?02:30
infinitylspci -v02:30
infinityShould show you the IRQ of each PCI device.02:30

mantienaKamion, will be language-packs other than en included into Ubuntu live CD ?04:19

trukulothat's the thing06:27
haggaisivang: ah right, well please let me know if you find problems06:27
ogratrukulo: yeah... we need only empty files of a mime type in the templates dir...and they will show up....06:27

Kamionthe python2.4 package does not provide a /usr/bin/python; you need to depend on python to get that09:25
dholbachyes09:25
ograin the documentation09:25
Kamionyes, but example scripts should still work out of the box09:25
ograah, that was the logic i was missing :)09:25
Kamioneither change the example script to python2.4, or change everything else to python and depend on python, or depend on both python2.4 and python09:25
Kamionpick one :)09:25

=== T-Bone curses gamin
sivangthom: any oppinion on #6590, maybe just disabling pango is the workaround? (I've seen everything is pretty well after that)09:28
T-Bonethat bloody shit is sucking 90% of cpu during kernel builds :P09:30
Kamionok, I think I can work around the ubuntu-desktop thing on ia64 now09:30
T-BoneKamion: cool!09:31
Kamionnow that I have figured out how to pick boot.img apart far enough to replace the bootloader configuration file09:31
Kamionand this will make the live CD work without runes on ia64 too09:31
T-Boneyay!09:31
T-Boneall hails Kamion, mighty magician of the bootloaders ;)09:32
Kamionsometimes I wish there would be just one bootloader09:32
Kamionand then I imagine what that bootloader would probably end up looking like09:33
Kamionand then I vomit09:33
Kamionand then I feel better again09:33
mjg59zul: Cool, thanks09:33
T-Boneif i may suggest something, i dunno what it's used for, but gamin looks much too me like a real piece of sh*t. As soon as disk intensive stuff happens, the slowdown is doubled by that silly program09:33
Kamiontalk to jdub about gaim09:33
Kamioner, gamin09:33
T-Bonewill surely do. And remove it from my boxes :P09:33
T-BoneKamion: try not to think too often of bootloaders then, for your own sake :)09:34
=== T-Bone goes grabing some food. bbiab
=== T-Bone is now known as T-Gone

mjg59sivang: Hi09:55
sivanghey Mitario 09:55
sivangmjg59: what's up? just finally installed new xorg pkgs, and laid off that buggery nvidia proprierity module :)09:55
sivangmjg59: so, /etc/acpi/sleep.sh to send my inspirion to sleep?09:55
mjg59sivang: Yeah, or fn+escape09:57
mjg59(With luck)09:58
sivangmjg59: ok, let's try ;-) don't I have to install *anything* ?09:58
Mitariojdub, here?09:58
mjg59sivang: No, only thing you need to do is enable sleep in /etc/default/acpi-support09:59
sivangmjg59: had anyone been working on gmoem integration for this? I'd be interested.10:00
sivangs/gmoem/gnome/10:00
mjg59sivang: Yup. I thought it ought to work now, but I can't get it to.10:00
mjg59I'll hassle seb next time he turns up.10:00
sivangmjg59: ok, if there anything you woudl like to get done, or somebody poking at let me know bug numbers or source pkgs to dwelve into. I think it may not be that hard to itnegrate in into the desktop.10:03
zulwohoo...22 more minutes and im going home10:04
mjg59sivang: The infrastructure exists, it just needs to be hooked up into the ui with gdm support10:06
mjg59But nobody's told me what the current state of that is, so.10:06
sivangmjg59: ok, it WORKED!10:06

sivangmjg59: ok, then you can add me to the list 10:07
T-BoneKamion: i'm running -19, obviously this doesn't prevent gamin from screwing me :)10:08
T-Bonelamont: you told me you've already seen those?10:08
sivangmjg59: btw, it doesn't suspend when I close the lid10:08
sivangmjg59: only when I manually execute the sleep.sh script10:10
mjg59sivang: Yeah. We don't currently make lid events do suspend.10:10
lamontT-Bone: SIGILL on ppc?10:10
lamontyeah.  those are "normal".10:10
lamontfix that. kthxbye10:11
mjg59lamont: What's the timescale for -20?10:11
lamontthere's a bug in bz for it10:11
T-Bone*sigh*10:11
sivangmjg59: when I come back from suspend, can the screenserver password dialog be turned off?10:11
mjg59sivang: Yeah. /etc/default/acpi-support10:11
lamontmjg59: thinking monday-ish unless someone really screams - with the abi event, I want to scrape everything we can for maximum bug-fix winning10:11
T-Bonelamont: how am i supposed to resume the build without rebuilding everything then? -nc won't do i suppose?10:11
sivangmjg59: ah cool, and the lid thing is just hooking an event right? how would I do that if I wanted to?10:11
mjg59lamont: Ok - are you grabbing those PPC sleep patches?10:12
lamontT-Bone: in the data center, we just give it back10:12
mjg59sivang: Edit /etc/acpi/lid.sh10:12
lamontmjg59: certainly10:12
mjg59lamont: Sweet10:12
lamontwill grab them tonight or tomorrow10:12
mjg59lamont: If those work, I have another patch for adding suspend to disk for PPC10:12
T-Bonelamont: i think zul already had. I was about to grab them but he told me he did10:12
T-Bonelamont: i'll revert the Fusion change as well, Kamion has a better idea with pci.handmap10:13
zulthe powerpc ones?10:13
T-Bonezul: yeah10:13
zulT-Bone: nope i didnt 10:13
T-Bonezul: you told me you did 'a little'10:13
sivangmjg59: what does HIBERNATE_MODE=shutdown10:13
sivangmjg59: mean?10:14
zulthe one that mjg59 sent me10:14
zulT-Bone: sorry didnt make it clear10:14
T-Bonezul: that's already something then. Let's have lamont not do extra unnecessary work :)10:14
zulok10:14
sivangmjg59: also is it possilbe to use MODULES="" to include the nvidia module or is it's non acpi compliant nature prevents this?10:15
mjg59sivang: It means that when you suspend to disk, it uses the standard Linux shutdown mechanism to power down the machine10:15
sivangmjg59: ok, and "platform" means I use acpi's ?10:15
mjg59sivang: You might actually be able to get away with the latest propriatory nvidia drivers10:15
mjg59Yeah, platform means Use ACPI to cut the power10:15
mjg59The other alternative is reboot, which is mostly good for testing10:15
lamontzul: were you working on mjg59's sleep patches?10:15
KamionT-Bone,lamont: ok, I think I've made debian-cd fix up ia64 bootloader configuration properly on the fly, so either tomorrow's live CD or the one after that should work without runes10:15
lamontKamion: way cool10:16
zullamont: that is correct..10:16
KamionT-Bone,lamont: also, I've made the ia64 CD use the "ia64-hack.seed" preseed file, which installs the ubuntu-desktop package rather than the ubuntu-desktop task10:16
lamontzul: then I won't worry about them.10:16
zullamont, ok fine :)10:16
Kamionthat should work around the lack of architecture-specific Task: headers for now, although I'd rather this hack went away for hoary10:16
zullamont: this patch -> acpi-20050211-2.6.11-rc4.diff10:17
lamontmjg59: and these are different from the tosh acpi driver that edd gave fabbione?10:17
Kamionhm, actually I'll build a new live CD now, even though the boot screens will be wrong10:17
sivangmjg59: I'll talk to thom and seb about the desktop integration of this, maybe it would be my way to love the patches back some.10:17
T-BoneKamion: cool. Please let me know how you want to integrate the handmap stuff10:17
KamionI'll ponder that overnight10:18
mjg59lamont: That patch has nothing to do with the Toshiba driver10:18
lamontwoot10:18
T-BoneKamion: awesome!. I'll be fully available tomorrow 13 CET ;)10:18
mjg59lamont: The acpi- patch fixes stuff on a small number of machines (notably battery detection on the Panasonic R1). The PPC stuff adds sleep support for newer Mac laptops. The Toshiba ACPI stuff makes hotkeys work on some Toshibas.10:18
=== T-Bone wonders if that would fix the strange bugs he's seeing on his g5
mjg59T-Bone: Mm?10:19
T-Bonemjg59: the silly box seems to think it's running on battery. Fsck says 'not fscking: on battery" at boot or something.10:20
sivangmjg59: shocked I just read your commentm about the nvidia drivers, did they add acpi compliance?10:20
T-Bonethe fact is I can't find the boot messages in any logfile, wonder how's that10:20

mjg59Sounds like a fsck bug.10:23
T-Bonemjg59: just as you say :)10:23
sivangmjg59: hmm, hibernate seem to not work, do I need to enable it also / other ?10:23
mjg59I don't think my stuff will touch that10:23
mjg59sivang: You need to edit /etc/mkinitrd/mkinitrd.conf and set RESUME10:23
T-Bonemjg59: there are a couple of other weirdness. Sadly. nothing gets logged.10:23
mjg59Then rebuild your ramdisk10:23
mjg59sivang: if you've got a hibernate button, it's unlikely to work10:23
T-Boneis that a policy, do i have to toggle some magic option to get boot scripts message logged?10:23
sivangmjg59: no, I tried ./hibernate.sh10:24
sjoerdT-Bone: you pmu procfile will show that you've got no ac power and no battery.. the init script probably only looks at the ac field then :)10:24
T-Bonesjoerd: good hint ;)10:25
lamontKamion: hrmpf10:26

Kamiond'oh10:27
lamontchoices: use what you already have, or (2) wait while I figure out why it's busted10:27
sivangMithrandir: why do you need to set up resume and menu.lst?10:28
KamionI don't already have anything ...10:28
Mithrandirsivang: on the kernel command line?10:28
Kamionunless I pick it out of a previous image somehow10:28
Kamionunfortunately this breaks powerpc CDs as well due to alphabetical ordering :)10:29
sivangMithrandir: I didn't know it is needed ;-) sorry, this is the way resume is implemented?10:31
Mithrandirsivang: I thought so, at least10:31
lamontKamion: fresh build running10:31
mjg59Mithrandir: That will also work10:32
lamontKamion: it might even work.10:33
