Where can i find the last version and revert entirely? [12:14] is there someone here that i can talk to in regard to speedstep-centrino and acpicpufreq modules? [12:15] I should mention no one on #ubuntu could answer this over the past several hours [12:15] the thing is bios.max_speed = 1700 and it only scales to 1600 [12:15] IFRFLY1, not sure, but it would be very helpful if you could file a bug about that [12:15] I will do that on...where, the wiki? [12:15] IFRFLY1, Linux-headers caused problems? [12:16] IFRFLY1, http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com, thanks very much [12:16] Yes. First, it reverted to 0.19 of the ipw2200 driver (current stable is 1.0.0), second I've been experiencing several weird things...including the fact that my fan now never turns off despite operating temps WELL at the low end of the spectrum. [12:16] mdke, I will do that. === rjo [~jordens@rjo.developer.debian] has joined #ubuntu-devel [12:17] Can anyone offer an idea about how I might revert? [12:17] im not sure how linux-headers affects your running drivers and acpi [12:17] linux headers own the drivers and bring in the /wireless [12:18] afaict [12:18] tseng, exactly, he might be talking abou linux-image [12:18] lol [12:18] Maybe! [12:18] linux-headers brings in.. headers === coastGNU [~templin@dyndsl-085-016-013-194.ewe-ip-backbone.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel [12:18] IFRFLY1, ubuntu never shiped 1.0+ drivers for ipw2200 [12:18] and we didnt revert anyone ipw [12:18] so it wasn't that what reverted yours to version 0,19 [12:18] Righto. I know. But 0.19 don't work for me or anyone else (lots of forum activitiy on that one. [12:19] Okay, I'm willing to admit total defeat. [12:19] However... [12:19] (locate ipw2200: /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.10-5-386/include/config/ipw2200) [12:19] erm no [12:19] those are headers [12:19] IFRFLY1, compile the ipw2200 module yourself.. there is more than enough info on that on the forums [12:19] headers are used to build glibc and 3rd party kernel modules [12:19] stuff like that [12:20] I did compile them myself and wrote the howto at http://www.nickselby.com/articles/?a=1807 [12:20] BUt [12:20] after accepting an update last week offered by the update applet, I was reverted to 0.19 === srbaker [~srbaker@blk-137-77-155.eastlink.ca] has joined #ubuntu-devel [12:20] The only thing I saw was "Linux Headers" [12:20] so install it again [12:20] I did. [12:21] so whats the problem [12:21] However while wireless is working fine, this fan problem started at exactly the same time [12:21] uhm, the ipw2200 in hoary doesn't work? [12:21] because its not linux-headers. [12:21] KaiL: WFM [12:21] Right. I'm willing to admit both ignorance and helplessness [12:21] 2 Laptops here ;) [12:21] However I would really like all to work as it did last week! [12:21] and I'm SHURE, there would be activitily like hell, if there's a bug ;) [12:22] KaiL: on many people's laptops it did not.

I get thank you notes almost daily for the howto [12:23] xhaker, others also experienced difficulty in changing networks [12:23] maybe, [12:23] interesting... [12:23] Yes, esp as it was *not* universally suffered [12:23] i compiled 1.0.4 and am using gtkwifi [12:24] ...good, that the breezy kernel will come with 1.0.4 ;) [12:24] :) [12:24] didnt know that [12:24] I could not get anything above 1.0.0 to work on my machine, neither could literally dozens of people on the lists and forums [12:24] i've been interested in the audio developments for breezy :P [12:24] I'd LOVE to help track it down, despite my limited technical knowledge :) [12:24] I'd be willing to test and document [12:25] Did the result of that lsmod | grep acpi interest anyone?

[12:39] I am unable to launch that monitor [12:40] IFRFLY1, d you know how? [12:40] The cpu frequency applet? Probably not - is it the cpufreq-selector?

It's running and says, 600MHz [12:41] :) [12:41] so it is working :P [12:42] Righto. However I must say I'm still not sure what is causing my fan to be constantly on with temps at 43C... Though that monitor is cool! [12:43] And I take it I could scale this up to go to 1.5MHz if I liked life on the wild side? [12:44] IFRFLY1, run glxgears on the terminal and see if it goes up [12:44] not wild but warm and melty === Arrogance [~aks@CPE0050ba556e4b-CM001225423850.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel [12:44] and btw.. you should be using linux-image-586 [12:45] Isuactiafner....MMM, gooey CPU. And xhaker, affirmative: up to 1.50 and I'm stoping it before I have an intel sandwich. [12:45] instead of 386 stuff [12:45] THAT was a cool thing, xhaker. [12:45] I agree -- I asked on forums as to why I had 386 and no one could tell me. Being new and all...... [12:45] Can you tell me how I can get the 586 stuff? [12:45] xhaker : how would i go about updating to GLIBC_2.3.5? and will it be relativly safe on hoary? [12:45] IFRFLY1, it doesn't melt or something :P [12:45] Grill? [12:46] lsuactiafner, i believe someone answered that already.. don't! [12:47] didnt see anyone answer me? except someone that told me glibc aint fun [12:47] IFRFLY1, 386 kernel is the kernel that works on every x86 platform :P but if you want to get a speed boost from current cpus.. you should use 586 [12:47] becuase i want to install newest nvidia drivers [12:48] lsuactiafner, when you try to install glibc 2.3.5 does it tell you that it has to remove anything? === ska-fan [~ska-fan@dsl-082-082-193-099.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [12:48] Actually, here's the thing: I'm actually quite pleased with ALL ubuntu has bropught me: speed, power, battery management, color, it's lovely. Until last week when the fan started running all the time with temps in the 40s. HP says temp operating range is 40 to 60C before the fan needs to be on. But since accepting the upgrade option from the update applet, the fan has kicked on constantly. [12:49] IFRFLY1, ohh.. and if you install the 586 kernel you'll have to recompile the i386 module again [12:49] well sadly i cant find the apt-get package to install to upgrade.. heh [12:49] ipw2200 [12:49] i meant === coastGNU [~templin@dyndsl-085-016-013-194.ewe-ip-backbone.de] has left #ubuntu-devel ["Leaving"] [12:49] I don't mind that at all>... [12:49] Long as the breeze and fan noise stops. [12:49] it's like three minute compile all steps included! [12:50] IFRFLY1, i guess i'm lucky.. my fans are quiet most of the time.. but my processor only scales to 1600 and it is 1700 max [12:50] lol [12:50] IFRFLY1, you have to install the linux-headers-586 too [12:50] you should know that by now ;) [12:51] I see. But I guess what I am saying is that the fan should NOT be on and didn't used to be on and I wonder how I can track down what has changed since last week as I've not changed anything except the upgrade ....... [12:51] Can you help me track down the problem? [12:51] is the fan still making noise now? [12:51] Yes! [12:51] It has not turned off in the past four hours!

[12:55] i made him load it [12:55] am tailing @ the end of a discussion so not sure if you guys checked that already [12:55] speedstep-centrino [12:55] xhaker: should that be autoloaded by powernowd?

[12:56] shouldn't.. better [12:56] KaiL, correct.. powernowd should have loaded that automaticly but it didnt [12:56] :S [12:56] lsuactiafner: his clock is at 600MHz, so the CPU is NOT that problem. [12:56] xhaker: strange - never saw that happen on a Pentium M [12:56] think powernowd is amd only [12:56] lsuactiafner: don't think to much :p [12:57] i run my 3200+ @ 100% cpu usage with FAH@Home to keep my room warm.. winter.. [12:57] prolly an expensive way to convert energy to heat.. [12:57] KaiL, never? I have a Pentium M 1.7 ghz.. it loads acpicpufreq instead of speedstep-centrino and my max speed is limited to 1.6ghz [12:57] lol [12:58] if you don't need to pay for it and like it to waste energy... [12:58] lsuactiafner, powernowd is a daemon for all cpu types [12:58] heh [12:58] south-africa got cheap energy [12:58] but.. my roomie pays power since i rent from him [12:58] KaiL, saw what i wrote before? [12:59] he got me using energy-effiecient bulbs that make practially no light [12:59] When I look at gkrellm's disk section it seems to be under 20K, mostly around 12K and lots of idle time.

[01:07] i'm portuguese but i'm pretty sure it's sure [01:07] think so [01:07] yes [01:07] KaiL and I'm SHURE, there would be activitily like hell, if there's a bug ;) [01:07] lol [01:08] KaiL, you need to learn english.. jk [01:08] I have, it seems, demo effect. No matter what machine I am on it crashes. I visited Nokia HQ a few years ago and their newest Nokia Communicator crashed as they demo'd it to me.

No idea whatsoever, I'm afraid [01:31] jdub: One thing I did want to ask, though - is there any way we can hack something in so Livejournal people can tag their entries for certain planets? [01:32] There's no way to have multiple rss feeds, but it would be nice to be able to prevent certain entries hitting planets [01:32] Look, I"m really grateful for all the help everyone's given, and I'm sadly despairing because I know that this fan issue wasn't an issue before this update. I am sorry to be a pain, but can anyone tell me if/how I can revert to the last linux-image or whether upgrading to the 586 stuff will help? [01:33] IFRFLY1, ty [01:33] try [01:33] try.....? [01:33] yes [01:34] Ah, try the 586 stuff. [01:34] install the 586 kernel [01:34] you'll have both [01:34] What? [01:34] Yes. Is this an apt-get thing? [01:34] and be asked to chose which one to boot [01:34] IFRFLY1: Are you running Hoary or Breezy? [01:34] Hoary (5.04 if that's hoary) [01:34] There has been no change in Hoary that should affect when your fan is enabled or disabled [01:35] If your system behaviour has changed after a Hoary update, then file a bug [01:35] daniels: please add SiS 6326 to the "16bit only list", that chip has some strange bugs [01:35] That was where the discussion began, and I am delighted to file the bug and track it, but people on the list were helping me to determine just *what* was buggy [01:35] mjg59, powernowd is loading acpicpufreq instead of speedstep centrino [01:35] Hoary here [01:36] xhaker: Uh. That's a perfectly reasonable thing for it to do. [01:36] KaiL: what specifically, I used one for a long time in 24bit [01:36] it is? [01:36] Yes [01:36] i have a pentium m .. [01:36] xhaker: Put the contents of /proc/cpuinfo somewhere [01:37] ok [01:37] The only way that powernowd could change behaviour with a kernel change is if /proc/cpuinfo changed [01:37] it was always like this [01:37] Ok, in that case it's likely to just be a powernowd bug [01:37] i've filled a bug in warty days [01:37] There's no good way to tell whether a chip is a pentium m or not [01:37] HrdwrBoB: the strange memory with the 4MB normal and 4MB texture [01:38] And some pentium ms have broken BIOSes which mean you can't use the centrino driver [01:38] KaiL: ahh, yech [01:38] In that case, there's a reasonable chance that the acpi driver will work, so we fall back to that [01:38] the driver can use the texture mem for normal work, but get's slow like hell then [01:39] HrdwrBoB: well, and with 24bit, you come over that limit quite fast [01:40] KaiL: yeah 4mb isn't very much at all [01:40] mjg59, https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=5591 this guy has the same laptop.. but, my laptop with acpicpufreq only scales to 1600 when infact it is a 1700. so that can't be right [01:40] mjg59, since I had no trouble until the upgrade is it possible for me to revert to what I had whch worked perfectly? [01:41] xhaker: Bios bug [01:41] bios.max_speed is 1700 [01:41] :S [01:41] IFRFLY1: If you know which package was updated, then yes [01:41] xhaker: ? [01:42] in the device manager [01:42] xhaker: That's DMI information. It's entirely separate to the ACPI performance state tables. [01:42] HrdwrBoB: normal cards would tell us, if they don't have enough RAM [01:42] Most bits of your BIOS are written by different people [01:42] so.. it is a DSDT problem? [01:42] this one just get's slow [01:42] Okay, thank you. Is there a record of updates which I make somewhere I can access? I blindly accepted the suggestion of the update applet so wasn't actually paying attention. [01:43] xhaker: No, it's an ACPI performance table issue [01:43] That's kept separately to your DSDT [01:43] Oh, christ, it's an Acer [01:43] hmm.. can i do something? [01:44] File a bug about the driver not giving you full speed [01:44] Then we'll see what we can do [01:44] You're *certain* it's a 1.7GHz machine? [01:44] lol === jdub wails in pain at plone css [01:45] mjg59, i am. [01:45] i can get that speed if i disable powernowd [01:46] and the cpu id is right too [01:46] xhaker: Ok. Please file a bug, and we'll see what we can do [01:46] model name : Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1.70GHz [01:46] should i include any attachments [01:46] like dmesg.. [01:47] xhaker: If it's that fast, it's a Dothan. They *need* BIOS support for frequency scaling. [01:47] And if the BIOS provides us incorrect information, then things don't work too well. [01:47] Yeah, please attach dmesg and /proc/cpuinfo [01:48] ok [01:48] mjg59, I am sorry to bother you but is there a log of what software updates does? I cannot find it. [01:48] IFRFLY1: No idea, I'm afraid [01:48] Thank you [01:48] Sorry about that [01:49] If there isn't, then there probably ought to be :) [01:49] IFRFLY1: in synatic is one (if you use that) [01:49] KaiL, I don't. Is there any way I can determine what was done by it, as I really don't relish the idea of reinstalling from the disk just to solve this one problem! [01:49] IFRFLY1, /var/cache/apt/ [01:50] in there are the packages you installed [01:50] probably [01:50] if you didnt clean them [01:50] :P [01:50] IFRFLY1: but that kernel update was only a security patch, so this is VERY strange [01:50] I wish I understood it and do not claim to. [01:50] I just know that suddenly the fan started running all the timne! [01:51] I didn't clean the cache, though it was software update which installed it - I just signed off on it! [01:51] Would the record be there or in some synaptic place? [01:51] IFRFLY1, /var/cache/apt/archives [01:51] the packages you installed recently are all there [01:52] they're downloaded to that location [01:52] Thanks! [01:52] :) [01:52] check the attributes if you want to know when where they installed [01:52] and such [01:55] Interesting. I see linux-image-2.6.10-5-386_2.6.1 0-34.1_i386.deb was installed. ...On May 20. Meaning that this is not - as several of you surmised - the problem. The only other install done has been mozilla-firefox_1.0.2-0ubuntu5 .3_i386.deb and mozilla-firefox-gnome-support_ 1.0.2-0ubuntu5.3_i386.deb, on the 24th. [01:57] so there you have [01:57] your ears are super sensitive [01:57] lol [01:57] Mmmm. [01:57] *g* [01:57] It's possible that it is what several have considered: a hardware problem! [01:57] go on a party and it'll be solved *g* [01:58] Everyone, thank you for your help and patience.

[10:38] no clue [10:38] i'm on the 2.6.10 kernel [10:38] so probably dnotify [10:39] and you have gamin 0.1.0 ?

[05:19] elmo: about as good an idea as removing libnss-db... ;-) [05:19] Netsnipe: Ubuntu policy mandates that (2) doesn't happen [05:19] <\sh> re [05:19] Netsnipe: (1): if it is small and auditable, really justified, and gets a review, that's considerable [05:20] thom: ouch [05:21] scorpix: seriously, do you have a good target for derooting? === terrex [~terrex@84-122-69-8.onocable.ono.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:21] pitti: ok. I'm setting the priority=low (seb128 and np237 from #gnome-debian have agreed on that) [05:21] elmo: *g* [05:21] scorpix: I still have unix_chppwd, hplip, and arpwatch on my list [05:21] now the question that remains is...what should the default be? [05:21] It should just work (TM) and default the cpufreq selection tool to SUID [05:21] Netsnipe: we have priority high as default, so even normal would work (for Ubuntu, that is) [05:22] Netsnipe: if it doesn't work without setuid, then the question is rather unnecessary, or does it? [05:22] or be paranoid, disable it, and bury the fact you have to turn it on for the applet to be able to change CPU speeds on the fly in the README [05:22] pitti: im trying to remember how to get the suid programs [05:22] that's what duck has done right now (but without the debconf question) [05:22] pitti: you need SUID [05:22] pitti: otherwise you can't do jack to sysfs [05:22] s/to/in/ [05:23] pitti: the applet still works if the selector isn't SUID. it just displays the frequency [05:23] and doesn't let you set it [05:24] Netsnipe: ah, so the wrapper would basically do the equivalent of "echo speed > /sys/.../frequency"? [05:24] pitti: yep. [05:24] Netsnipe: then it should be 4751 and restricted to a "desktop" group [05:24] Netsnipe, cant you do that through dbus/hal ? [05:24] ogra: how so? [05:24] ogra: you still need a setuid wrapper for the call [05:25] ogra: cpufreq is still sysfs as far as I know [05:25] 0.5.0 should be capable with the acpi patches from richard huges... it would need a little hack... [05:25] Netsnipe: erm, to get me right, the only thing that is setuid is the echo speed thing, nothing more, right? [05:25] pitti: add cups to your list if possible :) [05:25] scorpix: huh, that happened in warty [05:25] scorpix: that was one of the most important things to do since cups is complex and had many vulns [05:25] pitti, it should not be different to the dmidecode integration.... [05:26] ogra: right, but that required a suid wrapper, too [05:26] pitti: i get /etc/cups/ as setuid !! [05:26] pitti: yes [05:26] scorpix: www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/DerootificationStatus [05:26] pitti, yes, but behind hal, tightly tied to the hal group... which seems somewhat safer [05:27] ogra: that doesn't work, since the user has to change it. dmidecode does not need to be parameterized by the user [05:28] scorpix: drwxrwsr-t 4 cupsys lpadmin 544 2005-05-30 09:49 /etc/cups/ [05:28] scorpix: ^ what's wrong about that? [05:28] pitti: i forget that it should be /etc/bin/***, my fault [05:28] Netsnipe: it should be a group like "video"; video isn't meant for that, but the group should have the same privilege level [05:29] pitti, afaik the acpi patches from richard are capable of doing two way communication.... i just packaged gnome-power, it uses send and recieve on the dbus.... and we will need something similar to the above to handle the pmi calls from power-manager [05:29] pitti: I'm not going to hack the kernel just to change the perms on a sysfs node [05:29] ogra: is setting the property restricted in any way? [05:29] the question really boils down to [05:30] hello [05:30] de we default to SUID and have the applet Just Work (TM) as advertised [05:30] or be paranoid and leave it disabled and hope the user reads the README [05:30] what is the recomended filesystem for / ext3 or ext2? [05:30] and is brave enough to run dpkg-statoverride him/herself [05:30] pitti, i'm not sure... but what i'm saying is that we have to implement something similar anyway.... [05:31] phone [05:31] Netsnipe, we dont do such things to our users ;) (running things like dpkg-statoverride) [05:32] zyga_: #ubuntu, but ext3. [05:32] Netsnipe, so the solution should follow the "just works" approach [05:32] ogra: but that goes against my Debian instinct [05:32] enabling SUID root without asking the user [05:32] seems to be against tradition [05:32] I guess that's why we aren't Debian. [05:33] Netsnipe, if it can be wrapped in a safe way, its ok... [05:33] oh well [05:33] it's not as if cpufreq-selector is listening on any sockets [05:34] no, bu the things it does should be done through hal, thats what its for.... [05:36] back [05:36] Netsnipe: ping doesnt tell me its setuid root, nor does passwd. :) [05:37] ogra: the problem is: if you call the wrapper directly, then you can restrict it to a group; if you allow calling through hal, then *everybody* can change the cpu frequency, which is not desirable [05:37] ogra: the hal approach worked fine for "output-only" things like dmidecode, but not for things that need input from users [05:38] pitti, but doesnt "Hardware Abstraction Layer" somehow imply that you do interaction to your hardware through it ? :) [05:38] ogra: right, that was asked for very often, but you open a can of worms wrt authentication [05:39] pitti, but some day it has to get implemented... [05:39] I'm not a big friend of hal doing hardware settings...

[07:54] maybe some service which needs to be restarted [07:55] btw the device was pluged in during boot [07:55] maybe thats the cause I have to test that [07:55] mwh_: http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/DebuggingRemovableDevices [07:55] anyways, anyone of you heard of something similar to this [07:55] mdz: no, we didn't disable it [07:55] mdz: thanks [07:55] mdz: by keeping it in fstab, you see icons in the computer place even if there is no CD inserted [07:56] mdz: which is not a big deal, though [07:56] thing is usb is sdb for ppl with 1 sata disk [07:56] pitti: does the icon provide some functionality? [07:56] i have two.. so my usb is sdc.. can be problematic [07:57] and some disks have partitions that start on sdc2 not sdc1 as expected. [07:57] mdz: hmm, not really [07:57] mdz, you could manually mount with a doubleclick if g-v-m fails...

[08:00] mdz: great guide, ill fill a bugreport imediately [08:01] ogra: oh, if you just add one, you will get a new icon if you insert a CD [08:01] pitti, yeps, but fstab still has old entrys if you remove one for example... [08:02] ogra: right [08:02] imagine a usb CD-ROM/Writer plugged into a laptop at install time... [08:02] I'm not opposed to dropping the fstab stuff [08:02] however, that's a Kamion thing since the installer creates the fstab [08:09] pitti: it relies on certain paths on disk, can't adjust for hardware changes, etc. [08:09] pitti: the less configuration we do in the installer, and the more we adapt on the fly, the better I think [08:09] mdz: right [08:09] mdz: I think it is easy for Kamion to just disable that part in the insaller [08:09] has anyone noticed/fixed the bug where if you have a usb hard drive plugged in during install it puts /dev/sda instead of /dev/sda1 in fstab? [08:10] pitti: yes, and early so that we get plenty of feedback [08:10] pitti: can you follow up with him so that it gets done? [08:10] mdz: sure [08:10] Lathiat: if you're installing to the USB hard disk, that isn't supported yet [08:10] mdz: nah not installing to it [08:10] it was just plugged in at the time [08:10] Lathiat: so you did manual partitioning and asked that it be mounted? [08:10] didnt set it up or anything [08:10] mdz: no, it just stuck it in fstab for me [08:11] without touching it [08:11] and it puts sda instead of sda1 [08:11] ubuntu 5.04 doesn't do that [08:11] yes it does [08:11] for me, at least [08:12] Lathiat: please show me the fstab entry [08:12] humm [08:12] i'll have to do an install [08:12] all i can remember is it was along the lines of /dev/sda /media/usb0 ext3 defaults 0 0 right now [08:12] the first 2 i remember correctly, not sure about the rest [08:13] i'll try it out and let you know if you want === Seveas [~seveas@seveas.demon.nl] has joined #ubuntu-devel === mantiena [~ubuntu@193.219.14.141] has joined #ubuntu-devel [08:30] Hi all [08:30] Kamion: thanks for good working casper-automount ;) === mantiena tested partition automouting on about 5 computers... past 2 days ;) === shaya [~spotter@dyn-160-39-250-243.dyn.columbia.edu] has joined #ubuntu-devel [08:42] mjg59: ping?

[08:43] All keycodes are useful [08:43] :) [08:44] mjg59: I tried 4 external USB keyboard today. Looks like the kernel map them already to useful keycodes [08:45] mjg59: so support for them will be easy ;) [08:45] mjg59: keycodes have you looks at, e.g., lineak? It's config file contains lots of keycode definitions [08:46] Yeah, I've checked that. I'm concentrating mostly on laptops at the moment, since it's a lot easier to work that out [08:46] The problem with external keyboards is that there's no way to tell if a PS/2 keyboard is a Microsoft or a Logitech, and they use different mappings [08:47] mjg59: yeap. But external usb should be easy (if one can define 160 keycodes even is keyboard has on 105) [08:47] why on EARTH didn't they add keyboard type to the USB keyboard stuff? [08:48] elmo: because they wanted sun to look good, or something. [08:48] allee: Yeah, we can tell what sort of USB keyboard is in use, but we still need to have a static table of mappings in some cases [08:48] elmo: for me it looks like logical keys emit same keycodes. So AFAI can see one can use one mapping for 'all' external keyboards [08:51] mjg59: I plan to try a pc10* + huge-usb-extern map. AFAIU yet.

[10:37] would be weird [10:37] yes === marcin_ant [~marcin@www.e-dev.tele2.pl] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:37] I would think most people here have breezy [10:37] shaya can you do cat /usr/bin/mkfontdir [10:37] and give me the output [10:38] lupusbe: at least here, that still points at /usr/X11R6/bin/mkfontscale [10:38] idd [10:38] this is wrong [10:38] lupusbe: change it to /usr/bin/mkfontscale [10:38] yeah I know [10:39] I wonder if this is why fonts.dir is missing === thesaltydog [~pippo@62.211.45.42] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:39] dholbach, I forgot an issue... [10:39] since mkfondir was broken when installing the fonts I think [10:40] lupusbe: probably yes [10:40] thesaltydog: which one? [10:40] I'll open a bug report [10:40] or is someone already filling it in? :) [10:40] dholbach, su-to-root is in the menu file for kde.. the same reason for which I need postins (update-menus) [10:40] <\sh> grmpf [10:41] but the postinst i looked at didnt do anything [10:41] <\sh> anybody there who knows something about stdint.h magic? especially about __INT64_C(...) Macro? [10:41] lupusbe: I'm not running breezy X [10:41] it dont work for me [10:41] always gives me cant find fixed font [10:41] mmhh. I will check, but I have bum in the "debian" menu installed after an upodate-menus [10:42] even when changed the menus [10:42] shaya yeah I'm debugging the problem a little bit ;) [10:42] shaya, me too [10:42] thesaltydog: unfortunately i have no real idea about menu/debian-menu entries, Amaranth can surely help you there [10:42] if I remove the menu file, the non-Gnome user should run the program from CLI.. === motaboy [~motaboy@host191-41.pool80182.interbusiness.it] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:42] thesaltydog: my debian menu works fine [10:42] can someone tell me of which deb package mkfontscale is [10:42] lost my other non gnome menus though [10:43] I'm in windows at the moment so I can't check :) [10:43] shaya, you mean bum in the debian menu? [10:43] thesaltydog: what's up? [10:43] bum? [10:43] what menu do you want bum to go into? === mantiena [~ubuntu@193.219.14.141] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:43] lupusbe: packages.ubuntu.com should know :) [10:44] Amaranth, in order to have a menu entry for KDE, do I need to put a menu file in the package? [10:44] Amaranth, and run update-menus? [10:44] thesaltydog: In order to have a menu for KDE, GNOME, or KDE you need to put a menu file in the package. [10:44] Kamion: still online ? my network connection is not so good :( [10:44] thx dholbach [10:45] Amaranth, Ok. That was my issue. And that is why there is a postins in my package. Correct? [10:45] say what? [10:45] Amaranth, in the postins I run update-menus [10:45] you don't need to do that [10:46] just make sure your .desktop file gets into /usr/share/applications/ [10:46] Amaranth, should it be enough to put the menu file in /usr/lib/menu? [10:46] Amaranth, yes, the .desktop file is in the right place. [10:46] if it's in /usr/share/applications you should be done [10:47] /usr/lib/menu is only for the 'Debian' menu [10:47] Amaranth, sorry, but /usr/share/applications is not only for gnome? [10:47] Amaranth, I don't know kubuntu, does it work the same for menus? [10:47] no, /usr/share/applications is for any freedesktop.org complient menu system [10:47] which in Ubuntu is KDE, GNOME, and XFCE [10:48] Amaranth, ok. So i can get rid of the menu file in /usr/lib/menu? [10:48] actually, you probably want to put one there and run update-menus too, sorry [10:48] Amaranth, :-) ... I was saying just that since 15 minutes... [10:49] you want one in /usr/share/applications and one in /usr/lib/menu [10:49] yeah [10:49] Amaranth, yes. I did that way.. And run update-menus in postins. [10:49] you should be good then [10:50] Amaranth, thanks a lot!

[11:09] no [11:09] there is no upstream virtually [11:09] why? [11:10] daniels: where is the translation in xkb/symbol/* of: key (like ) to keycode (of xev) defined? Once I knew :( [11:10] bad :/ [11:10] I have a patch to enable forkpty() in the python bindings [11:10] put it on bugzilla.gnome.org [11:10] some people review patches [11:10] I can try to ping one guy to get it reviewed [11:10] mvo: Hi, when you upload update-manager to debian ? [11:10] and I would like to add a flag that forkpty() not closes all fds on the fork but leave some open [11:11] mantiena: it needs a updated python-apt in debian [11:11] harden-clients will remove ubuntu-base and ubuntu-standard... What is telnet needed for there anyway? [11:11] seb128: the python bit is already in gnome bugzilla (including a patch) [11:11] seb128: I had hoped to get feedback about the "dont-close-all-fds" thing :/ === louie is now known as lu|away [11:12] mvo: oh, feedback ... don't expect on that [11:12] mvo: it's too hard to make to work update-manage with pyhton from debian sid ? [11:13] mantiena: it's possible but a PITA because sids python-apt does not know about the depcache (I added that recently). it's a matter of moving the python-apt from experimental into sid, should happen pretty soon I guess. than it's not hard to port it (it uses some python2.4 stuff, but that shouldn't be a big deal) [11:13] seb128: :( [11:16] mvo: hehe, maybe you could upload update-manager to experimental ? [11:16] mantiena: actually not a bad idea :) [11:16] mvo: ;) === auxesis [~lindsay@107.24.233.220.exetel.com.au] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:25] mvo: so, why not to make this idea real ? [11:26] elmo: thanks [11:26] mantiena: it still leaves the "backport it to python2.3" problem [11:27] mvo: why doing that? [11:28] seb128: why doing what? not closing all fds? [11:28] no, backporting [11:28] you'll not get it for sarge now [11:28] no need to bother [11:29] yes, I assume debian will get python2.4 as default pretty quick [11:29] i assume sid is going to break worse than breezy in the next couple weeks [11:30] even worse :P ? [11:30] so it won't matter anyway [11:30] :) [11:30] Amaranth, why ? they have our patches ;) [11:30] so they can have it quicker/easier if they want.... [11:32] you're assuming they'll a) accept all of those packages and b) get things moving as fast as you did [11:32] err, patches [11:32] not packages [11:32] its their choice.... but they could if they wanted ;) [11:34] Oh intersting [11:34] Ooo has a UNO bridge for .Net? [11:34] but they dont have a dholbach to fix their universe indeed ;) so it will take longer for sure [11:34] ogra: and a charles and an herve and and and and and [11:35] So ya'll need to give Eclipse a spin.

[11:40] yep [11:40] then ignore it [11:40] thesaltydog, you can ognore that [11:40] ok. now genchanges [11:40] ignore even [11:40] dpkg-genchanges: warning: unknown information field in input data in package's section of control info file [11:40] the same? [11:41] have a look at the Package's section in debian/control [11:41] I have just added the Version: 1.2.7-1ubuntu0 [11:41] before I had no version info in control. [11:41] yeah... cool - now have a look at debian/control [11:42] version info in control is wrong [11:42] dholbach, what should I look for? [11:42] has to go to debian/changelog [11:42] aahh. ok, so I remove from there and put in debian/changelog [11:43] yes [11:43] BTW, how should I have both chengelog.gz and changelog.Debian.gz? [11:43] I have only one changelog file in debian dir [11:43] pitti: by "hct in breezy" do you mean HCT packages in breezy? or just usable for doing breezy?
