| aquarius | Especially given the very nice "This is an Ubuntu CD; do you want to upgrade?" prompt you get when you put an Ubuntu CD in. | 01:21 |

| daniels | ajmitch: so, don't upgrade to xorg-common -15 | 03:42 |
| daniels | or wherever it was that /usr/bin/X11 became a directory | 03:42 |
| AndyFitz | ajmitch, you're an important step ahead of me. i'll get x to work once i sort out this xutils thing | 03:42 |
| daniels | Bad Things Happen | 03:42 |
| daniels | wait | 03:42 |
| ajmitch | daniels: far too late for that.. /usr/bin/X11 disappeared | 03:42 |
| daniels | AndyFitz: xutils, or xfonts-utils? | 03:42 |
| daniels | ajmitch: sweet | 03:42 |
| Amaranth | ajmitch: You got it to run? wow | 03:42 |
| ajmitch | a symlink got it back for now until things are shifted | 03:43 |
| AndyFitz | daniels, nboth, xutils is broken because xfonts-utils isnt there to be upgraded also | 03:43 |
| Amaranth | ajmitch: What voodoo made it run? I've done the /usr/bin/X11 symlink | 03:44 |
| ajmitch | Amaranth: and updating the font paths in xorg.conf | 03:44 |
| ajmitch | fairly minor fixes | 03:44 |
| Amaranth | where are fonts at now? | 03:44 |
| Amaranth | maybe gdmflexiserver is just messed up, but i don't want to restart X to find out :) | 03:45 |
| ajmitch | I think it is | 03:45 |
| ajmitch | or Xnest is | 03:45 |
| ajmitch | ah, time to run to work :) | 03:45 |
| Amaranth | xnest worked fine for me | 03:45 |

| Amaranth | ok, i lied. I tried to reproduce but since X works now it didn't do anything. | 03:56 |
| AndyFitz | Amaranth, how did you get x to work. what simlinks needed to be setup ? | 03:57 |
| Amaranth | ln -s /usr/X11R6/bin/ /usr/bin/X11 is all i needed | 03:58 |
| jsgotangco | morning | 03:58 |
| Amaranth | plus i had to manually edit my xorg.conf because it was trying to use "Generic Mouse" and "Configured Mouse" but I only had the latter | 03:58 |
| Amaranth | the fonts thing wasn't an issue, the fonts seem to exist in both places for now | 03:58 |

| AndyFitz | speaking from damn centericq again :-P, im guessing it has nothing to do with my previous xfonts-utils / xutils issue | 04:24 |

| AndyFitz | funky, also X is not executable but when i chmod 777 X it doesnt do anything | 04:28 |
| ghpolo | doing a simple ln worked for me | 04:28 |
| AndyFitz | ghpolo, what ln did you create ? | 04:29 |
| ghpolo | ln -s /usr/X11R6/bin /usr/bin/X11 | 04:29 |
| === luis_ [~louie@c-66-31-46-131.hsd1.ma.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| AndyFitz | ghpolo, yeah thats been created | 04:30 |
| AndyFitz | bugger, no idea why X isnt executable or wanting to be | 04:30 |
| ghpolo | so strange | 04:30 |
| ghpolo | after I did X worked again normally | 04:30 |
| AndyFitz | the X is red in console i have no idea what perm red is | 04:30 |
| ghpolo | it is broken link usually | 04:30 |
| AndyFitz | strange. i tried again but the file exists | 04:33 |
| daniels | /etc/X11/X should be pointing to /usr/X11R6/bin/Xorg | 04:33 |
| daniels | (for the time being) | 04:33 |
| ghpolo | it does here | 04:33 |
| ghpolo | is that X red ? | 04:33 |
| ghpolo | and Xorg exists ? | 04:33 |
| AndyFitz | ln: '/usr/bin/X11//bin': file exists | 04:33 |
| ghpolo | that is wrong | 04:34 |
| ghpolo | it shouldnt create a file named bin | 04:34 |
| ghpolo | it should link the dir /usr/X11R6/bin as /usr/bin/X11 | 04:35 |
| AndyFitz | daniels: so 'ln -s /etc/X11/X /usr/X11R6/bin/Xorg' ? | 04:36 |
| === BeerDump [~jsg@202.57.71.235] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Amaranth | other way around? | 04:36 |
| ghpolo | other way | 04:36 |
| AndyFitz | ok thanks | 04:36 |
| ghpolo | anyways, what did you do to break your system so much ? ;p | 04:36 |
| ghpolo | im using the latest dist-upgrade as breezy | 04:36 |
| AndyFitz | file exists on that one too | 04:37 |
| ghpolo | what shows when you do ls -l /etc/X11/X ? | 04:37 |
| AndyFitz | ghpolo, yeah likewise mate | 04:37 |
| ghpolo | maybe you did something wrong trying to fix startx after last dist-upgrade and broke something | 04:38 |
| ghpolo | im not sure about what you did | 04:38 |
| AndyFitz | etc/X11/X in red -> usr/bin/X11/Xorg | 04:39 |
| ghpolo | uh | 04:39 |
| ghpolo | that is a problem | 04:39 |
| ghpolo | what ls -l /usr/bin/X11/Xorg shows ? | 04:39 |
| ghpolo | red color is a broken link | 04:40 |
| ghpolo | meaning Xorg doesnt exist ;/ | 04:40 |
| ghpolo | or is somehow pointing to wrong place | 04:40 |
| AndyFitz | i hadnt created any other simlinks asde from 'ln -s /usr/X11R6/bin/ /usr/bin/X11' and for that it required me to make the dir X11 in /usr/bin i thought that was kinda odd | 04:40 |
| ghpolo | yes it is strange | 04:41 |
| ghpolo | maybe you had the directory X11 before ? | 04:41 |
| ghpolo | and then it tried to link /usr/bin/X11/bin ? | 04:41 |
| AndyFitz | xorg does exist and yeah x has always been in /etc/X11/X | 04:42 |
| ghpolo | hmm | 04:43 |
| ghpolo | so you didnt do the last dist-upgrade ? | 04:43 |
| AndyFitz | this machines install has only existed since test1 of hoary so it wont have any Xf86 artifacts or anything | 04:43 |
| ghpolo | it removed x-window-system and x-window-system-core | 04:43 |
| AndyFitz | ghpolo, i did do the latest dist-upgrade | 04:43 |
| ghpolo | i did aswell | 04:43 |
| jdub | guys, just be careful with dist-upgrade - use -u and watch what it's doing | 04:43 |
| jdub | then you won't get into pickles like this | 04:44 |
| ghpolo | i believe you somehow forced a wrong link AndyFitz | 04:44 |
| ghpolo | but im not totally sure | 04:44 |
| Amaranth | if you created an X11 dir in /usr/bin you're already off | 04:44 |
| AndyFitz | ghpolo, the only links created manually by myself have been pasted here | 04:44 |
| ghpolo | hmm | 04:45 |
| ghpolo | ls /usr/bin/X11 shows what ? | 04:45 |
| ghpolo | the same as /usr/X11R6/bin ? | 04:45 |
| Amaranth | X11 was supposed to be a symlink to the /usr/X11R6/bin dir | 04:45 |
| ghpolo | yes | 04:45 |
| ghpolo | but last dist-upgrade removed that | 04:45 |
| AndyFitz | jdub, i'll watch it from now on obviously ;-) thanks | 04:45 |
| ghpolo | so i remade it | 04:45 |
| Amaranth | ghpolo: I know, I'm telling AndyFitz :) | 04:46 |
| ghpolo | no problem | 04:46 |
| AndyFitz | ghpolo ls /usr/bun/X11 shows a cyan 'bin' | 04:47 |
| ghpolo | ah | 04:48 |
| ghpolo | you did wrong link then ^^ | 04:48 |
| ghpolo | you could remove this link at /usr/bin/X11/ | 04:48 |
| ghpolo | then remove /usr/bin/X11 | 04:48 |
| ghpolo | and try ln -s /usr/X11R6/bin /usr/bin/X11 again | 04:48 |
| AndyFitz | how do i remove the wrong link ? | 04:48 |
| ghpolo | rm link | 04:48 |
| Amaranth | rm | 04:48 |
| AndyFitz | so rm link /usr/bin/X11 ? | 04:49 |
| ghpolo | that is a directory i suppose | 04:49 |
| ghpolo | do rm /usr/bin/X11/bin | 04:49 |
| AndyFitz | or just rm the dir | 04:49 |
| ghpolo | rmdir /usr/bin/X11 | 04:49 |
| ghpolo | then ln -s /usr/X11R6/bin /usr/bin/X11 | 04:49 |
| AndyFitz | oh bugger, directory not empty. if i remove the contents will that damage the other side of the link ? | 04:50 |
| AndyFitz | i think it will | 04:50 |
| ghpolo | it wont | 04:50 |
| ghpolo | rm /usr/bin/X11/bin first | 04:50 |
| ghpolo | then rmdir /usr/bin/X11 | 04:50 |
| AndyFitz | rmdir /usr/bin/X11 returns an error : directory not empty | 04:50 |
| AndyFitz | ok cool | 04:51 |
| ogra | rm -r | 04:51 |
| ghpolo | wait | 04:51 |
| ghpolo | dont do rm -r | 04:51 |
| ghpolo | maybe you did something else | 04:51 |
| ghpolo | and it could damage | 04:51 |
| ghpolo | remove the link inside it and try rmdir if it doesnt work check what else is there | 04:51 |
| AndyFitz | ghpolo i didnt | 04:52 |
| AndyFitz | i am pretty silly but not going to wipe the contents and hurt myself further. i did the order you just pasted | 04:52 |
| ghpolo | ok then | 04:52 |
| ghpolo | did you create the correct link ? | 04:53 |
| AndyFitz | which link? no i havent yet | 04:53 |
| ghpolo | did you rmdir /usr/bin/X11 yet ? | 04:54 |
| ghpolo | yet or already ? | 04:54 |
| ghpolo | my english is bad | 04:54 |
| AndyFitz | yes | 04:54 |
| ghpolo | so just do ln -s /usr/X11R6/bin /usr/bin/X11 | 04:54 |
| AndyFitz | its gone without any grief, thank you | 04:54 |
| AndyFitz | done | 04:55 |
| ghpolo | nice | 04:55 |
| AndyFitz | am i also meant to create another link for xorg ? | 04:55 |
| ghpolo | everything should be right now | 04:55 |

| jdub | synaptic doesn't buy you anything more than apt, it just makes it harder for you to see what's going on in your *devel branch* os :) | 05:50 |

| jdub | you've probably clicked "smart upgrade, don't ask me again", too. | 05:51 |
| luis_ | I have | 05:51 |
| luis_ | and why 'stupid' (implicitly) is an option, I'm not sure | 05:51 |
| jdub | because the guy who chose the terms didn't learn english first | 05:51 |
| schweeb | apt/dpkg uses the cat/grep/head/tail etc... philosophy... small utilities with one duty that can be used in conjunction with each other | 05:52 |
| luis_ | AFAICT, one is 'get the dependencies right', and the other is 'don't bother to get the dependencies right' | 05:52 |
| jdub | luis_: nup | 05:52 |
| jdub | luis_: dist-upgrade will add and remove willy-nilly to resolve an upgrade. | 05:52 |
| jdub | luis_: upgrade is more conservative. | 05:53 |
| jdub | i recommend using upgrade in the general case | 05:53 |
| jdub | (which is why the common occurance of "smart upgrade, don't ask me again" is so bad) | 05:53 |
| luis_ | I always check what is being done before hitting OK in synaptic | 05:53 |
| luis_ | I'm not braindead | 05:53 |
| luis_ | else I'd have been screaming in here about my missing tomboy weeks ago :) | 05:54 |
| jdub | its the software's fault, not yours | 05:54 |
| luis_ | don't worry | 05:55 |
| luis_ | I place all the blame on the software :) | 05:55 |
| jdub | (but largely unrelated to facile problems with apt) | 05:55 |
| jdub | you're assuming i'm not, thus the point | 05:55 |
| luis_ | <shrug> I have no particularly deeply held opinions about apt; I mean the infrastructure may or may not be in place to make a fine tool. | 05:55 |
| luis_ | (the red-carpet team had strong opinions about that, but I don't really respect their judgment on the matter :) | 05:56 |
| luis_ | but, yeah... apt-get/dpkg as a combo feel like a substantial step backward from the design/flexibility/usability of rug. It's really the only thing I miss right now from rh+ximian or suse+ximian. | 05:56 |
| justdave | Ubuntu Upgrade Manager does a normal upgrade | 05:57 |
| justdave | er, Update Manager, whatever it's called :) | 05:57 |
| justdave | and it prompts you to go use Synaptic if it'll break dependencies | 05:57 |

| svenl | hi. | 08:18 |
| svenl | I was wondering what would be the best way to get a universe package rebuild ? | 08:18 |
| daniels | you can't get rebuilds, only upload new source versions | 08:19 |
| daniels | and universe stuff -> #ubuntu-motu | 08:19 |
| daniels | they take care of all the unvierse packages | 08:19 |
| svenl | hardware-monitor, which i maintain for debian, seems broken in breezy. | 08:19 |
| svenl | Oh, | 08:19 |
| svenl | YAC :/ | 08:19 |
| svenl | i think freenode is refusing me to subscribe to so many channels :/ | 08:19 |
| svenl | 08:15 [freenode] -!- Cannot join to channel #ubuntu-motu (You have joined to too many channels) | 08:20 |
| svenl | oh well. | 08:20 |
| Amaranth | you can join it, just not all at once | 08:20 |
| Amaranth | it's to prevent bot floods, i think | 08:20 |
| svenl | Amaranth: yeah. | 08:21 |
| svenl | Amaranth: still doesn't help me, since i don't think one of the channels i have open now i can dispense with. | 08:21 |
| Amaranth | you should be able to join it now | 08:22 |
| Amaranth | it just doesn't let you join a whole crap load at once, iirc | 08:22 |
| svenl | Amaranth: not. | 08:23 |
| svenl | Amaranth: i only joined this ones, the other where joined since days. | 08:23 |
| svenl | but i am on the ppc devel channels, some debian ones, 4 ubuntu ones, and the pegasos support channels. | 08:23 |
| Amaranth | odd | 08:24 |
| Amaranth | i've been in about a dozen channels before | 08:24 |

| AndyFitz | schweeb, so whats happening between the two in breezy ? | 08:47 |
| Lathiat | is it just me or is ubuntu using dmix by default now | 08:48 |
| jdub | AndyFitz: potential to use polyp | 08:48 |
| jdub | Lathiat: ick, no | 08:48 |
| AndyFitz | I say this because the esd sound quality is atrocious in breezy | 08:48 |
| === Lathiat wonders why the hell his system is then | ||
| Lathiat | (and its not working very well, although ive had it working fine, but i have no alsa config files) | 08:49 |
| Amaranth | i thought the plan for breezy was to use dmix when we could | 08:49 |
| schweeb | AndyFitz: esd sound quality is atrocious everywhere | 08:49 |
| svenl | daniels: the fonts are in /usr/share/X11/fonts, even with -12, is that as you would expect ? | 08:49 |
| AndyFitz | lol I agree schweeb , only this time its outdone itself. rhythmbox won't play without esd, and its pouring out some really interesting sounds along with playback | 08:49 |
| schweeb | I seem to recall hearing recent stirrings of DMIX, but jdub would probably know better than I would | 08:49 |
| Amaranth | AndyFitz: Did you try telling gstreamer to use alsa? | 08:50 |
| schweeb | AndyFitz: RhythmBox uses gstreamer | 08:50 |
| jdub | schweeb: it's on the "to try" list for sound infrastructure spec | 08:50 |
| jdub | but it's spew | 08:50 |
| schweeb | AndyFitz: open the gst config tool, and switch from ESD to alsa | 08:50 |
| Amaranth | you'll have to restart rhythmbox | 08:50 |
| schweeb | jdub: I've had mixed results with it | 08:51 |
| schweeb | once when I set it up, all of my stuff played at like 1.25x speed | 08:51 |
| schweeb | heh | 08:51 |
| Amaranth | haha | 08:51 |
| luis_ | danm | 08:51 |
| AndyFitz | rhythmbox won't play without esd running, schweeb yeah I can change that. just don't know what mutated esd | 08:51 |
| luis_ | oops, wrong chan | 08:51 |
| === Amaranth hugs sound cards that don't suck | ||
| jdub | schweeb: mixed results, eh? that sounds like the optimal outcome. :-) | 08:52 |
| schweeb | you're punny :p | 08:52 |
| Micksa | anyone know of a program suitable for quickly browsing through multi-page tiff files? | 08:52 |

| Treenaks | Micksa: evince | 08:53 |
| Amaranth | evince is becoming our Preview :) | 08:53 |
| Micksa | ta | 08:53 |
| jdub | Micksa: or wait for sebuild to get to it when he wakes up | 08:53 |
| schweeb | either that or gFaxView or whatever it's called (maybe) | 08:53 |
| jdub | Amaranth: only i've yet to convince jrb to integrate static image viewing too | 08:53 |
| Amaranth | sebuild, lmao | 08:53 |
| === Treenaks waits for someone to fix X | ||
| Micksa | is evince what that guy was showing off at the gnome miniconf at LCA? | 08:54 |
| Amaranth | Treenaks: It's only going to break more, but there is a simple way to make it work now. :) | 08:54 |
| Treenaks | Amaranth: there is? :) | 08:54 |
| Treenaks | Amaranth: apt pinning + hoary? :P | 08:54 |
| Amaranth | Treenaks: ln -s /usr/X11R6/bin /usr/bin/X11 | 08:54 |
| jdub | Micksa: i don't believe anyone was showing off evince at gca. | 08:54 |
| Treenaks | Amaranth: yes, that was the easy part | 08:55 |
| Amaranth | Treenaks: then dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 08:55 |
| Treenaks | Amaranth: then it started whining about "fixed" | 08:55 |
| Amaranth | the fonts? | 08:55 |
| Treenaks | Amaranth: yes | 08:55 |
| Amaranth | hmm, my fonts are in /usr/share/X11/fonts and /usr/lib/X11/fonts, figure out which one you have and edit xorg to match | 08:55 |
| Treenaks | good idea :) | 08:55 |

| AndyFitz | there are a few gst gui tools but none that appear to manage that | 08:56 |
| Amaranth | System->Preferences->Multimedia Systems Selector | 08:57 |

| AndyFitz | not in breezy, gstreamer-properties and the control-center shortcut are both missing | 08:57 |
| Amaranth | i have them? | 08:58 |
| schweeb | as do I | 08:58 |
| AndyFitz | all gstreamer apps I have installed are prefixed with gst- | 08:58 |
| Amaranth | reinstall gnome-media | 08:58 |

| AndyFitz | um yeah. all with one dist-upgrade | 09:02 |
| Amaranth | did it remove a lot of things? :) | 09:03 |
| AndyFitz | she'll be right. xmms ... until this all blows over lol | 09:03 |
| AndyFitz | Amaranth, enough things to worry about but not enough to make my system keel over and die.. I'm sitting in the threshold of painful package migration | 09:04 |
| Treenaks | hmm... an empty dialog box saying "Xsession:" :) | 09:04 |
| Amaranth | ok, new idea :) | 09:04 |
| Lathiat | yeh i get that too | 09:04 |
| Amaranth | AndyFitz: load up gconf-editor, change /system/gstreamer/0.8/default/audiosink to alsasink | 09:05 |

| infinity | daniels : Are we allowed to upload CXX apps yet, though? | 11:41 |
| fabbione | you can upload, but they don't get autobuilded | 11:42 |
| daniels | infinity: probably not | 11:42 |
| infinity | fabbione : Well, yes, that's what I meant.. "Is there any point?" | 11:42 |
| ogra | infinity, check the dependencys in any case (do a pbuilder run or whatever) | 11:42 |
| daniels | hunger: 'whoops' -> i hit ctrl-shift-w instead of ctrl-w and didn't start irssi in screen, so it died | 11:42 |
| fabbione | infinity: no :) | 11:42 |
| infinity | daniels : While we're whining about things, why does the default xorg config use such ridiculously conservative timings? 1600x1200 at 60Hz really hurts. | 11:44 |
| hunger | infinity: I am using that setting... it is fine. | 11:45 |

| daniels | infinity: trawl my bug list for 'vbetool should use x86emu, subsume ddcprobe'; wasn't allowed to fix it for hoary | 11:46 |
| daniels | infinity: itmt, just nuke the ranges from xorg.conf altogether. nv, although really stupid, is smart enough to work the ranges out for itself in this case. | 11:48 |
| Mithrandir | daniels: or just use hwinfo instead? | 11:48 |
| daniels | Mithrandir: well, need to properly check out hwinfo | 11:48 |
| infinity | daniels : Yeah, ISTR that both nv and nvidia could do so just fine, it was just a shock to have my initial config be kinda whacky. | 11:48 |
| daniels | Mithrandir: been too busy trying to stop you whining by fixing xorg to check out hwinfo :P | 11:49 |

| daniels | mjg59: how awesome is that?? | 11:52 |
| daniels | Mithrandir: thanks for the pointer, dude :P | 11:52 |
| hunger | I really do not understand why suse has such a following... people even stick with it even though it has screwed them several times in a row on upgrades. | 11:53 |
| mjg59 | daniels: Well, otherwise they might have to extend the kernel bootloader protocol | 11:53 |
| Mithrandir | daniels: well, it works without the SuSE= entry too. :P | 11:53 |
| mjg59 | daniels: Hang the fuck on | 11:53 |
| mjg59 | daniels: Surely they're only using syslinux for the installer? | 11:54 |

| Mithrandir | mjg59: what do you think of my idea to get syslinux to use different config files based on cpuid? | 11:54 |

| Kamion | elmo: ok | 01:42 |
| jane_ | Mithrandir: will do, but we actually want to push it through for approval asap | 01:42 |
| Mithrandir | jane_: uhm, it totally lacks a DraftSpec/EditedSpec thing? | 01:42 |
| jane_ | Mithrandir: it is in Colin's queue | 01:43 |
| Mithrandir | jane_: I think you'll have to get mdz to review it? | 01:43 |
| Mithrandir | jane_: he's back from vacation now, so just putting it in his queue and notifying be email should work, I'd guess. | 01:44 |
| jane_ | Mithrandir: ok I made it a draft spec... ITA about mdz, I was hoping to get someone at it sonner though ;) | 01:44 |
| jane_ | Mithrandir: also mdz will be pretty swamped today | 01:44 |
| Mithrandir | jane_: Colin did approve specs at UDU, you could ask him if he can do it; Kamion? | 01:44 |

| lamont | redland-bindings is missing a build-dep on whatever provides swig | 02:13 |
| daniels | elmo: or, rather, an answer to 'can we punt lesstif to universe?' | 02:15 |
| daniels | elmo: as a side-effect of desperately not wanting to have to support the security and logistical nightmare that is xprint | 02:15 |
| elmo | someone'd have to fix vim | 02:16 |
| elmo | and we'd have to be okay with dropping xpdf | 02:16 |

| Kamion | daniels: ? | 02:26 |
| daniels | Kamion: kdebindings is a horror freakshow | 02:26 |
| Kamion | daniels: how else do we get Qt bindings? | 02:26 |
| daniels | that's its only redeeming feature, is that it's the only thing | 02:26 |
| daniels | but the thing is utterly horrible, and almost entirely unused | 02:27 |
| Kamion | ok, I'll ask the Kubuntu guys | 02:27 |
| daniels | (which either explains why it's almost permanently broken, or is caused by that) | 02:27 |

| daniels | i mean, if libqt-perl works, and you want to use that, then go ahead | 02:27 |
| daniels | but I would strongly recommend punting every single other bit of kdebindings to universe | 02:27 |
| Kamion | daniels: don't have a choice as far as debconf is concerned | 02:27 |
| Kamion | it's either that, or no KDE frontend | 02:28 |

| ogra | elmo, sorry for that | 02:31 |

| daniels | \sh: if they're in universe and they aren't causing an FTBFS, it doesn't matter | 02:31 |
| daniels | right now the package isn't ftbfs and the only thing under discussion is the qt perl bindings | 02:31 |

| elmo | say what now? | 02:32 |
| elmo | Riddell: I kind of doubt it | 02:33 |
| elmo | the box has 2Gb real, 3Gb swap - I suspect it's a compiler bug | 02:33 |

| cartman | as this is on ppc, would it worth to try with apple's gcc? | 02:37 |
| Amaranth | apple's gcc would require OS X or darwin | 02:37 |
| Amaranth | seeing how this is a linux distro... | 02:37 |
| cartman | :/ | 02:38 |
| cartman | Amaranth: I thought it just required a ppc cpu | 02:38 |
| Amaranth | plus apple's gcc is a fork from sometime before 4 was released | 02:38 |
| Kamion | I hadn't heard that Apple's gcc was all that excellent | 02:38 |
| cartman | i.e ppc only optimizations in code | 02:38 |
| cartman | Kamion: I heard it compiles better for ppc | 02:38 |

| cartman | Kamion: might be yeah :) | 02:39 |
| cartman | non-biased opinions on Apple producsts are hard to get | 02:39 |

| Amaranth | daniels: you're patching 6.8.2? i thought the X stuff was from HEAD | 03:35 |
| Kamion | elmo: no, we didn't | 03:35 |
| daniels | Amaranth: all the new stuff is coming from HEAD; new tarballs are just too painful | 03:35 |
| Amaranth | ah | 03:36 |

| dilinger | Xu disabled hyperthreading in kernels by default, in a security fix? | 03:37 |
| pitti | dilinger: yes | 03:37 |
| elmo | dilinger: seems reasonable? | 03:37 |
| pitti | dilinger: https://www.ubuntulinux.org/support/documentation/usn/usn-131-1 | 03:37 |
| Amaranth | hyperthreading is crack anyway | 03:38 |
| Kamion | having read the paper, fixing HT sounds kind of non-trivial | 03:38 |
| dilinger | Kamion: having read the paper, it didn't seem like the sort of thing the kernel should be attempting to fix. then again, I haven't read the followup thread on lkml yet | 03:40 |
| === jamin [~jamin@sys-216.87.56.250.primary.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Kamion | uh ... the paper explicitly advised that kernels work around the issue until chip vendors sorted it out | 03:40 |
| Kamion | since it's not like you can hot-upgrade your CPU | 03:41 |
| Kamion | which didn't seem like an unreasonable position to take | 03:41 |
| Kamion | I mean, the alternative is that everybody rewrite their crypto libraries to be entirely immune to timing attacks, which is no small endeavour and not always obviously correct anyway | 03:41 |
| mjg59 | Kamion: Currently, the only real way of working around it seems to be to disable hyperthreading | 03:41 |
| Kamion | mjg59: exactly | 03:42 |
| mjg59 | Which is a kernel command-line argument | 03:42 |
| mjg59 | So disabling it by default seems excessive | 03:42 |
| elmo | why? | 03:42 |
| elmo | we don't default-to-off for other security patches? | 03:42 |
| mjg59 | Oh. Is "Disable by default" equivilent to "Provide new option to enable"? | 03:43 |
| Amaranth | the people who know there is a kernel command line are the ones who would be thinking about reenabling it, not those disabling it for security reasons | 03:43 |
| Kamion | mjg59: yes | 03:43 |
| Amaranth | yeah, you can use ht=on to enable it | 03:43 |
| elmo | You can manually | 03:43 |
| elmo | enable HyperThreading again by passing the kernel parameter "ht=on" at | 03:43 |
| Kamion | mjg59: well, it's now default ht=off and you can type ht=on | 03:43 |
| elmo | boot. (CAN-2005-0109) | 03:43 |
| pitti | Kamion: it's not just timing attacks | 03:43 |
| mjg59 | Ah, yes | 03:43 |
| === mjg59 should read the advisory properly first | ||
| pitti | Kamion: a process can watch another process while they are on the same CPU at the same time | 03:44 |
| dilinger | i just don't like security updates that change behavior like that. i guess if it's unavoidable.. | 03:44 |
| mjg59 | dilinger: If the changed behaviour is documented, it's less of an issue | 03:44 |
| elmo | I wish it had been ready before I ran round 30+ machines disabling HT in the BIOS :P | 03:44 |
| mjg59 | Especially if it's the only real solution... | 03:44 |

| Kamion | elmo: I think that's a bug - it doesn't seem to be handling multi-valued MANPATH_MAP entries | 03:53 |
| daniels | er | 03:53 |
| seb128 | jdub: about your g-s-t mail, not sure if that's a good idea. We have turned some of the option because they break stuff like rcn.d entries | 03:53 |
| daniels | Kamion: /usr/local/man is in MANDATORY_MANPATH, /usr/local/share/man isn't | 03:53 |
| daniels | Kamion: it's blank, and not set in ~/.zshrc or anything | 03:53 |

| Kamion | /usr/local/share/man is kind of crack though | 03:53 |
| jdub | seb128: can we have that package for the ones that aren't broken? | 03:53 |

| Kamion | * Added /usr/local/man as a symlink to /usr/local/share/man, | 03:58 |

| daniels | KaiL_: why? what's actually wrong? | 04:24 |
| daniels | did it change the ABI, or what? | 04:24 |
| KaiL_ | yes | 04:24 |
| daniels | did it bump all the numbers to -6, or? | 04:24 |
| Kamion | 15:23 < KaiL_> even better remove the new image from the update archives instandly | 04:24 |

| Kamion | security updates > restricted modules | 04:25 |
| daniels | right | 04:25 |
| daniels | and stuff never gets removed from archives | 04:25 |
| daniels | KaiL_: can you describe *how* it breaks the ABI? what fails to work? | 04:25 |
| KaiL_ | daniels: nvidia driver | 04:25 |
| KaiL_ | see #nvidia, jd101 there | 04:26 |
| daniels | i'd rather not join yet another channel | 04:26 |
| KaiL_ | Kamion: there's nowhere an updated restricted modules?! | 04:26 |
| `anthony | which reminds me - should I log bugs against the nv driver against ubuntu, or fd.o ? | 04:26 |
| daniels | `anthony: fd.o, preferably | 04:27 |
| daniels | saves me the effort :) | 04:27 |
| Kamion | KaiL_: you're missing the point - security updates are more important than restricted modules, so "remove the new image" would be the wrong answer no matter what | 04:27 |
| KaiL_ | Kamion: oh, being unable to have an X-Server is unimportant? | 04:27 |
| `anthony | daniels: righto | 04:27 |
| Kamion | KaiL_: *less* important than a security update | 04:27 |
| daniels | KaiL_: less important than not being rooted | 04:27 |
| KaiL_ | daniels: wrong. | 04:28 |
| daniels | fabbione: apparently -34.1 caused an ABI bump, please investigate | 04:28 |
| KaiL_ | you can't be rootet, if you have no working system any more :) | 04:28 |
| daniels | KaiL_: dude, hate to break it to you, but security trumps everything. doubly so in the kernel. | 04:28 |
| `anthony | KaiL_: You can always use the nv driver until the nvidia driver is fixed. | 04:28 |
| KaiL_ | it's not for me | 04:28 |
| `anthony | Plus, then you get stuff like sane ACPI | 04:28 |
| daniels | alternately, if you don't care about the security holes in the kernel, just downgrade for the time being | 04:28 |
| `anthony | KaiL_: Then suggest to whoever is having the problem that they switch to nv until the module is recompiled. | 04:30 |
| KaiL_ | you understand, that everybody, who updates his kernel this morning and has any of these modules running (very many will have nvidia, not that much less fglrx) will have a console after reboot, yes? | 04:30 |
| daniels | not necessarily everybody | 04:30 |
| daniels | given that the udpates are tested by people who verify if the ABI stays the same or not | 04:30 |
| daniels | so obviously it only triggers in some cases | 04:30 |
| `anthony | KaiL_: is it possible the people with the problem are running their own compiled version of nvidia drivers? | 04:30 |
| KaiL_ | let's hope, they are tested... | 04:31 |
| KaiL_ | `anthony: he didn't even know, how to install the driver from nvidia | 04:31 |
| Kamion | KaiL_: we're not saying "it won't be fixed", we're saying "relax" | 04:31 |
| daniels | KaiL_: of course they're tested | 04:31 |
| `anthony | If it _is_ broken, I'd expect it'll get fixed pretty quickly | 04:31 |
| KaiL_ | which btw *should* not matter technically... | 04:31 |
| `anthony | KaiL_: Er, except that the nvidia driver code is truly heinous. If someone's grabbed the latest and "greatest" version, who knows what evil crap is in the driver. | 04:32 |

| mjg59 | dredg: Uhm. There's the possibility that something is broken on your system, then. | 05:01 |
| mjg59 | Nobody else has reported that failure yet... | 05:01 |
| mvo | AndyFitz: that would rock (please also have a look at the bugnumber I send you, it raises a interessting point). the icon is at /usr/share/pixmaps/update-icon.png | 05:02 |
| daniels | haha | 05:02 |
| daniels | so, speaking of keyboard problems, this just landed in bugzilla: | 05:02 |
| daniels | i have this kind of problem... in fact, my "shift" key doesn't seem to work | 05:02 |
| daniels | (sorry, no uppercase in this post) | 05:02 |
| AndyFitz | mvo, can you give me a url pointing to the bug report instead of the number ? | 05:02 |
| AndyFitz | I havent used malone before | 05:02 |
| AndyFitz | assuming thats where it is ? | 05:03 |
| mjg59 | daniels: How did they manage quotes? | 05:03 |
| mvo | AndyFitz: sure, https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=11080 (I sometimes forget that not everyone has the bugzilla open all day :P) | 05:03 |
| dredg | mjg59: yeah, i accept that possibility. *shrug* | 05:03 |
| daniels | mjg59: who knows | 05:04 |
| Kamion | lamont: I think it'll break due to aptitude vs. C++ at the moment | 05:07 |
| lamont | Kamion: ok. aptitude is currently dying because libsigc++-1.2 doesn't like g++4.0 | 05:08 |

| pitti | mvo: I know the difference between my usb stick and my camera (wrt. g-v-m dialog/dbus wreckage) | 06:36 |
| mvo | pitti: tell me! | 06:36 |
| pitti | mvo: the camera is just one device, but my usb stick has two partitions | 06:36 |
| pitti | mvo: I reformatted my stick to have just one (encrypted) partition, and now it works | 06:36 |
| pitti | mvo: so after the partition is detected, there simply are no further dbus messages | 06:37 |
| pitti | mvo: however, that explains why it works with the camera, but doesn't solve the dbus bug, of course | 06:37 |
| Lathiat | yeh i noticed with g-v-m | 06:38 |
| Lathiat | i have a usb stick which has an emulated floppy | 06:38 |
| Lathiat | and then the usb stick part | 06:38 |
| Lathiat | and only the floppy bit ever mounts | 06:38 |
| pitti | Lathiat: no, that should work (it does for me at least) | 06:39 |
| Lathiat | i'll try again | 06:39 |
| Lathiat | might have been fixed | 06:39 |
| pitti | Lathiat: I currently try to introduce a dialog which asks for an encryption passphrase | 06:39 |
| Lathiat | pitti: ah, thatd be sweet | 06:39 |
| pitti | Lathiat: but while the dialog runs, gtk_main_loop() is called, which triggers dbus functions, which never return and use up 100% CPU | 06:40 |
| `anthony | pitti: You should use the twisted dbus bindings, then you don't have to worry about this crap ;) | 06:42 |

| pitti | trulux: your patch works | 07:21 |
| pitti | trulux: however, fabbione had some reservations with applying it since it is very intrusive | 07:21 |
| pitti | trulux: did you submit this upstream? | 07:21 |
| thom | mdz: having hardware issues, or is this a long term annoyance (verbose hotplug in recovery mode) | 07:21 |
| pitti | trulux: I think for upstream inclusion the patch is fine | 07:21 |
| pitti | trulux: but it isn't that nice to introduce distro-specific sysctls, I was told | 07:22 |
| mdz | thom: we regularly see this type of report from users, and it's tricky to debug because we can't tell which module is being loaded | 07:22 |
| trulux | pitti: I hadn't, though I had some feedback with akpm but not related to the patch itself | 07:22 |
| mdz | thom: I was reminded to file the bug due to dealing personally with a user experiencing such a problem | 07:22 |
| thom | mdz: nod. ah, right | 07:22 |

| trulux | pitti: vsec? it's not patch, we can maintain separate deb packages for the module, really | 07:23 |
| pitti | trulux: it *might* be necessary to prepare another (lighter) patch without the sysctls, but otherwise it is fine | 07:24 |
| trulux | pitti: and most important... | 07:24 |
| trulux | pitti: I'm porting cap_over to it, so, we won't need suid binaries anymore | 07:24 |
| trulux | pitti: a very basic binary-policy-based access control with capabilities | 07:24 |

| thesaltydog | no, it is a graphic tool to manage runlevels/priorities/etc... http://www.marzocca.net/linux/ubm.html | 08:07 |
| trukulo | thesaltydog: same as rcconf? | 08:07 |
| trukulo | well, similar, not same | 08:07 |
| thesaltydog | rcconf has been the first step for the development. | 08:08 |
| trukulo | umm, not very intuitive | 08:08 |
| thesaltydog | sorry? | 08:08 |
| trukulo | it seems not very intuitive to users, very cryptic (for novices) | 08:09 |
| trukulo | just my opinion | 08:09 |
| Lathiat | I think the idea is great but the interface could be much simpler | 08:09 |
| thesaltydog | maybe. But novices has also to learn. Anyway, my question is just in this direction.. | 08:09 |
| thesaltydog | Is it stated somewhere that ubuntu's Runlevel 3-4-5 are the same as RL2?? | 08:10 |
| trulux | pitti: there? | 08:10 |
| Amaranth | seb128: hold off on packaging that for the moment, i just found a nasty bug i'm talking to the upstream dev abou | 08:10 |
| pitti | trulux: yes | 08:10 |
| Kamion | thesaltydog: it's in Debian documentation, yes | 08:11 |
| luis_ | hrm, anyone here familiar with the liveCD bits? what fs type is / (and as a result /home/ubuntu/) exactly? | 08:11 |
| luis_ | mount reports it as... something very strange | 08:11 |
| luis_ | '/dev/mapper/casper-snapshot on / type auto (rw,noatime)' | 08:11 |
| luis_ | (I had expected tmpfs) | 08:11 |
| Lathiat | isnt it cloop ? | 08:11 |
| jdub | yes, it's a dm layer | 08:11 |
| thesaltydog | Not true. Debian can diversify runlevels.. One user asked me to provide divesification from RL 3 and the others.. | 08:11 |
| surak | what is dm? | 08:12 |
| jdub | device mapper | 08:12 |
| Kamion | thesaltydog: Debian's default is identical to Ubuntu's. | 08:12 |
| === jiyuu0 [~jiyuu0@219.95.247.201] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| jdub | luis_: it's a dm overlay on top of cloop | 08:12 |
| surak | jdub: Could you talk a little bit more about this? | 08:12 |
| Kamion | thesaltydog: so I'd like to know exactly what you're disagreeing with when you say "not true" | 08:12 |
| thesaltydog | Kamion, with debian I was used to have runlevel 4 as a non-graphic server configuration.. | 08:12 |
| Kamion | thesaltydog: that's not the default. You could do the same with Ubuntu if you like. | 08:12 |
| thesaltydog | Kamion, no. Because then when you apdate a package, the postint script will run again update-rc.d and put all the RLs the same.. | 08:13 |
| === luis_ is with surak | ||
| === luis_ has no idea WTF that is :) | ||
| luis_ | though I am googling furiously ;) | 08:13 |
| Kamion | thesaltydog: which is *exactly the same* on Debian. | 08:13 |
| Kamion | 17:49 < ewx> Pinkbeast: Fnqyl abg. | 08:13 |
| Kamion | err | 08:13 |
| Kamion | http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-opersys.html#s-sysvinit | 08:13 |
| thesaltydog | Kamion, I have read the debian-policy and they say that you can have different behaviours on runlevels.. | 08:14 |
| Lathiat | luis_: aiui, theres probably more to the story, its a layer for consistent naming of devices, notably used with things like lvm/raid but other stuff too | 08:14 |
| jdub | luis_: dm is just the kernel foo that lets us provide a writeable overlay on top of the cloop filesystem; it's also used for evms, lvm, etc. | 08:14 |
| luis_ | ah | 08:14 |
| Kamion | thesaltydog: it's highly unconventional and I can't think of any Debian packages that do it by default. I also think it's unwise. Leave it to the sysadmin. | 08:14 |
| thesaltydog | Kamion, anyway, my question is just simple: should I remove RL3-4-5 from the GUI of ubm? | 08:15 |
| Kamion | thesaltydog: Please don't. | 08:15 |
| thesaltydog | Kamion, but trulux was saying that the GUI is not simple. He asked to simplify.. | 08:16 |
| kiko-fud | surak, we use dm to implement a sort of COW on top of cloop. | 08:16 |
| Lathiat | thesaltydog: thats not a simplification | 08:16 |
| Lathiat | thesaltydog: thats just obfuscation | 08:16 |
| trukulo | thesaltydog: one interesting thing, for usability, is to show what the default RL is | 08:16 |
| Lathiat | thesaltydog: i would envisage the entire design to be different | 08:16 |
| doko | elmo: do some of xorg's, libxau's build deps need NEW love? | 08:16 |
| trukulo | thesaltydog: i'm not a developer, and this is just my opinion | 08:16 |
| thesaltydog | Lathiat, I agree.. | 08:16 |
| elmo | nah, they need universe -> main love; I'm on it | 08:17 |
| === luis_ is now known as lu|away | ||
| thesaltydog | Lathiat, I don't like to obfuscate, that's why I have added also rcS.d | 08:17 |
| Lathiat | thesaltydog: so far example (this is just an example), you may say list all services, then you open that service and it lists what runlevels it starts and shuts down at, and to change it, etc | 08:17 |
| surak | Kamion: still having trouble with inirtrd. | 08:17 |
| thesaltydog | Lathiat, but in the way you don't have a first global impression of what your system is... | 08:18 |
| Lathiat | thesaltydog: I dont see what you mean | 08:18 |
| Lathiat | thesaltydog: its also possible to have multiple views | 08:18 |
| trukulo | thesaltydog: i think about simplified conf, and advanced conf | 08:18 |
| Lathiat | Service View | 08:18 |
| Kamion | surak: ? | 08:18 |
| Lathiat | Runlevel view | 08:18 |
| Lathiat | etc etc | 08:18 |
| surak | 1 min | 08:18 |
| Lathiat | because sometimes you want to see different lists of tings | 08:19 |
| surak | phone | 08:19 |
| thesaltydog | Lathiat, multiple view means "<confusion>". My opinion.. | 08:19 |
| trukulo | thesaltydog: in simplified, just use default level, and enable- disable service | 08:19 |
| trukulo | as rcconf | 08:19 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, so you mean to remove RL 3-4-5 information? | 08:19 |
| trukulo | thesaltydog: no, i mean put it on tab advanced i.e. | 08:20 |
| trukulo | use two tabs, simple and advanced | 08:20 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, a sort of "expert" mode? | 08:20 |
| trukulo | advanced as you have | 08:20 |
| trukulo | thesaltydog: yes | 08:20 |
| trukulo | but very visible | 08:20 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, you see, I have also rcS.d | 08:20 |
| trukulo | tabs are perfect for this | 08:20 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, and I already havce tabs | 08:21 |
| trukulo | i see, just add another one, simple configuration | 08:21 |
| trukulo | and make it default, for novices | 08:21 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, mmh. Nice. It could be.. | 08:22 |
| trukulo | thesaltydog: and with description of service | 08:22 |
| trukulo | instead of RL | 08:22 |
| trukulo | that would be very interesting for novices, as they would know what a service does | 08:22 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, description of service is always visible in the lower pane, as synaptic. | 08:22 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, the full description | 08:23 |
| trukulo | umm, you're right | 08:23 |
| trukulo | perhaps one line desc only | 08:23 |
| trukulo | just for fast visual understanding | 08:23 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, no, it will double the info... Of course in novice mode that should not change start/stop priority?? | 08:24 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, that==they | 08:24 |
| trukulo | thesaltydog: just my opinion, if you want descriptions, you have to select services one by one | 08:24 |
| trukulo | this way you can view it faster | 08:25 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, it is now this way. Have you tried moving in list with cursors..? | 08:25 |
| trukulo | i know cursors do it, but that's not my point | 08:25 |
| trukulo | i want to see entire list easy | 08:25 |
| trukulo | imagine i'm a novice, and i want to stop printer service | 08:26 |
| trukulo | do i have to select and read all descs for services? that's slow | 08:26 |
| trukulo | it's just a commodity | 08:26 |
| trukulo | and only in simple view | 08:26 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, no, you run the program, right-click con cupsys, and deactivate now. That's all.. | 08:26 |
| trukulo | boot/service name/description | 08:26 |
| trukulo | novice don't know cupsys are for printers | 08:27 |
| trukulo | they have to look for it | 08:27 |
| mdke | trukulo, that will help them find out | 08:27 |
| trukulo | mdke: that's the point | 08:27 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, mmh. Neither UBM knows... | 08:27 |
| === ska-fan [~ska-fan@dsl-082-082-197-102.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| mdke | trukulo, imo there is nothing wrong with getting users to read a full description, it is good education | 08:28 |
| trukulo | mdke: that's true, but you may help finding things | 08:28 |
| thesaltydog | mdke, like synaptic does.. | 08:28 |
| trukulo | i can see cupsys is for printers, and then i select and read full desc | 08:28 |
| mdke | trukulo, i think the interface makes the full description fairly easy to find | 08:28 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, between us. I don't want to make a Gates-like application for dummies. | 08:28 |
| mdke | trukulo, if you see that, i feel that you won't read the description ;) | 08:29 |
| mdke | thesaltydog, + | 08:29 |
| trukulo | that's just my opinion, of course you can disagree | 08:29 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, hey, we are not arguing here, just brainstorming | 08:29 |
| mdke | yeah | 08:29 |
| mdke | iirc the old gnome-s-t service manager didn't have short descriptions | 08:29 |
| mdke | actually i'll have a look | 08:29 |
| trukulo | but easier, doesn't means "for stupids only" :) | 08:29 |
| trulux | pitti: http://pearls.tuxedo-es.org/patches/security/kern-security-2.patch | 08:29 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, one last question. | 08:30 |
| trukulo | thesaltydog: i'm just a sysadmin, not a ubuntu developer, eh? | 08:30 |
| trukulo | so take mi opinions just as that, a sysadmin opinion | 08:30 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, is there a "standard & unique" way to detect if a script in init.d has a daemon running, currently? | 08:31 |
| trukulo | thesaltydog: as i know, not in debian, if you find one tell me, as yast4debian has problems with the same thing | 08:31 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, i.e.: I see that a script is named cupsys, but his daemon's name is cupsd.. | 08:31 |
| mdke | the old gnome system tools one is here: http://mdke.mine.nu/images/g-s-t.png, it has some brief explanations | 08:32 |
| trukulo | in other distros, it's with /etc/init.d/service status | 08:32 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, I can parse the init.d script file, but they are not the same, not standard | 08:32 |
| trukulo | thesaltydog: you can take a look at yast4debian, they had the same problem | 08:32 |
| trukulo | http://yast4debian.alioth.debian.org/ | 08:32 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, ok. I will look. It could be nice coloring green running services and red stopped ones.. | 08:33 |
| mdke | sorry, dud link, http://mdke.mine.nu/images/g-s-t.png | 08:33 |
| trukulo | thesaltydog: sure | 08:33 |
| mdke | thesaltydog, good idea | 08:34 |
| === rtcm [~jman@217.129.142.72] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| thesaltydog | mdke, but there is no way to get them.. | 08:35 |
| trukulo | thesaltydog: but , again, i want to return to my point of fast descs :) | 08:35 |
| mdke | thesaltydog, :/ | 08:35 |
| trukulo | thesaltydog: there's a way, very strange, but there is | 08:35 |
| trukulo | as yast4debian does this | 08:35 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, you need to parse the files, but the syntax is not standard. Someone use NAME=daemon, other use DAEMON=daemon | 08:36 |
| thesaltydog | and other, like apache, use completely different syntax | 08:36 |
| trukulo | let me see | 08:36 |
| trukulo | thesaltydog: there was another way | 08:37 |

| surak | My problems with ubuntuexpress are: | 08:44 |
| surak | 1) as you already know, the cd's initrd won't work. | 08:45 |
| surak | 2) I must be doing something really wrong with mkinitrd. | 08:45 |
| Kamion | 1) is a feature, not a problem. :-) | 08:45 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, ? | 08:45 |
| Kamion | the initrd on the CDs is an integral part of the installer | 08:45 |
| Kamion | 2) can you elaborate? | 08:46 |
| Kamion | surak: mdz's back now, and he might be on more compatible times to you | 08:46 |
| surak | 3) the /dev is not ok. For instance, live has a /dev/shm/network - running udevstart won't create it (so no apt-get) | 08:46 |
| trukulo | thesaltydog: still looking for | 08:47 |
| surak | hum. it worked now ( 3 ) | 08:47 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, ah, okay. I wait.. | 08:47 |
| doko | mdz: please could you review mvo's changes to apt? it's the last library in main with the old C++ ABI | 08:47 |

| thesaltydog | trukulo, this is what ubm does to list the init scripts... | 08:49 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, but ubm does it better | 08:50 |
| trukulo | thesaltydog: but there was another program | 08:50 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, maybe I have wrongly posed my question. | 08:50 |
| trukulo | and look at this | 08:50 |
| trukulo | http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2001/12/msg00737.html | 08:50 |
| trukulo | there's no /etc/init.d/service status in debian | 08:51 |
| trukulo | and nothing similar, as i know | 08:51 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, I know. Someone tried to make it standard, but it couldn't.. | 08:51 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, ok. I will take care of it. | 08:52 |
| doko | mdz: thanks | 08:52 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, you have been very kind | 08:52 |
| trukulo | thesaltydog: i just try to help you :) you are helping us with your program more than i | 08:52 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, so your suggestion is: 3 tabs: 1. Short view 2-Standard Runlevels 3_System runlevel | 08:52 |
| surak | Kamion: i need to do initrd in a chroot device, am I correct? Inside the mounted target. | 08:53 |
| trukulo | yes, and short descs in the list, and extended down, as know | 08:53 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, don't know about this latter.. | 08:53 |
| trukulo | it's easier for finding services | 08:53 |
| ogra | thesaltydog, you should work with the MOTU to get it included in universe | 08:54 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, but I should build a completely new cache for descriptions! Now I am taking those from the apt cache on the user's disk.. | 08:54 |
| ogra | thesaltydog, i already told that to abelli | 08:54 |
| trukulo | thesaltydog: you just can use a crippled desc, from full | 08:54 |
| thesaltydog | ogra, what do you mean by "work" with motu?? | 08:54 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, look at the titles. They are not enough for a sjort description. | 08:55 |
| ogra | thesaltydog, only MOTUs have upload rights to universe | 08:55 |
| trukulo | cupsys ? doesn't seem printing service :) | 08:55 |
| trukulo | for you and me, of course it is | 08:55 |
| trukulo | but for new people... it isn't | 08:55 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, to make cupsys=printing services I have to write down (word by word) a dictionary | 08:56 |
| trukulo | or just take first 80 characters of description you are using now | 08:56 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, aks to ubuntu mainteiners to change the descriptions | 08:56 |
| trukulo | at least, it's useful information | 08:56 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, that could be | 08:56 |
| trukulo | and people can continue reading full desc when select it | 08:56 |
| thesaltydog | ogra, abelli already asked them. What should I do more? | 08:57 |
| Kamion | surak: yes; you should also look at what base-installer does with mkinitrd.conf | 08:57 |
| ogra | thesaltydog, yes, he asked me | 08:57 |
| thesaltydog | trukulo, but I like to have full descr in the lower pane... please.. | 08:57 |
| ogra | thesaltydog, you probably should join #ubuntu-motu for a start ; | 08:57 |
| Kamion | because you'll need to imitate it, or (possibly better) refactor base-installer's code so that you can use it directly | 08:57 |
| ogra | ;) | 08:57 |
| thesaltydog | ogra, I will try if I can | 08:57 |
| thesaltydog | ogra, but I prefer to use my time for developing, than for making "public-relations" | 08:58 |

| ogra | spotter, did you use highly breaking development branches of software in 1994 for your regular work ? | 09:22 |
| spotter | ogra: yes :) | 09:23 |
| spotter | otherwise known as slackware | 09:23 |
| ogra | heh | 09:23 |
| surak | it hasn't changed a lot since that :-) | 09:23 |
| surak | since then, sorry | 09:23 |
| spotter | about the only thing it could ompile sucsefully was the kernel | 09:23 |
| ogra | spotter, so then you are used to it, why do you complain ;) | 09:23 |

| smurfix | doko: | 10:46 |
| Mithrandir | is that a pong character? | 10:46 |
| smurfix | sure | 10:46 |
| Mithrandir | which font do I need to see it? | 10:46 |
| smurfix | good question. One moment | 10:47 |
| spotter | where doe one get the nautilis-open-terminal extension? | 10:47 |
| smurfix | Mithrandir: gucharmap finds "AR PL KaitiM GB", which probably is in whichever Chinese font I managed to install last time | 10:49 |
| kiko | mvo, I think that including the full path is the correct approach to the path truncation issue, for the record. | 10:49 |
| === pablof [~kurumin@200.128.80.254] has left #ubuntu-devel [] | ||
| mvo | kiko: for error messages? or for all output? | 10:50 |
| doko | smurfix: festival doesn't build using 3.4 or 4.0 ... | 10:50 |
| smurfix | doko: That shouldn't happen. URL of the build log? | 10:51 |
| kiko | mvo, for all output. otherwise it's just confusing. and the case where the strings get too long (>72chars) is pretty rare, isn't it? | 10:51 |
| spotter | seb: you here? | 10:52 |

| === mrzero [~ole@orwen.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| mvo | kiko: for ubuntu it's very rare, but it's common for debian mirrors it seems | 10:53 |
| lamont | xorg ftbfs: x include file errors. /me giggles | 10:54 |
| smurfix | doko: festival depends on libestools1.2-dev, built by speech-tools, and which presumably needs a c++ ABI transition ..? | 10:55 |
| === koke [~koke@adsl229-164.unizar.es] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| kiko | mvo, how common? hummm. | 10:55 |

| surak | or Kamion? | 11:26 |

| surak | My trouble was that I was not able to create a initrd. | 11:29 |
| surak | because of this: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-20925.html | 11:29 |
| jbailey | surak: Best bet there is to run "sh -x mkinitrd ...." and see why it's not calling the mkcramfs bit then. | 11:31 |
| === tritium [~tritium@pal-168-061.itap.purdue.edu] has left #ubuntu-devel ["Leaving"] | ||

| surak | jbailey: seems I've found it. | 11:41 |
| surak | what happen is that if you don't type the full path, it will leave the initrd file inside the temporary folder, thus removing it right after creating it (if you don't use -k, of course. when you use it, you'll see your file as specified by -o inside the /tmp/mkinitrdXXXX folder) | 11:43 |

| Kamion | ? | 11:45 |
| elmo | kamion: removed the base seed | 11:45 |
| Kamion | er, yeah :) | 11:46 |
| Kamion | doesn't it use STRUCTURE? | 11:46 |
| elmo | it wasn't even 2005 germinate :P | 11:46 |
| Kamion | you should probably use 'cut -d: -f1' on seed-directory/STRUCTURE to get your seed list | 11:46 |
| elmo | kamion: I'm using ALL - hopefully that's unchanged? | 11:47 |
| elmo | err, 'all' | 11:47 |
| elmo | hmm, yay, that didn't work | 11:47 |
| Kamion | all? wassat? | 11:48 |
| elmo | the output file, 'all' | 11:48 |
| Kamion | elmo: that should still work | 11:50 |
| Kamion | I thought you meant you had a seed list hardcoded somewhere | 11:50 |
