ograseb128, my pbuilder doesnt find Xlibs.h anymore since today12:36
uniqi can confirm that.12:37
uniqXlib.h rather. 12:37
uniqsame goes for Xutil.h12:37
seb128daniels has declared .h files useless, that's it? :)12:38

lsuactiafnerwatched a movie today and could lip read12:51

mjg59allee: Hi12:58
alleemjg59: hi ...12:59
alleemjg59: where is the translation in xkb/symbol/* of:  key (like <i65>) to keycode (of xev) defined?  Once I knew :(01:00
mjg59allee: That's based on your keymap01:00
mjg59xkb sets it01:00
mjg59The kernel gets a scancode from the keyboard. It turns that into a keycode and gives it to X. X uses its xkb table to turn that into a keysym.01:00
jdubmjg59: o/~ the thigh bone's connected to the knee bone... o/~01:02
alleemjg59: the way of the event is clear to me.  but I miss what to use for key <xyz> to get out the right keycode keysym combo01:02

wasabi_mdz, oh what did you do?01:03
alleemjg59: I did it once year ago but can't find it :(01:03
mjg59allee: I'm not quite sure what you mean01:03
mjg59The keycode keysym combination is keymap specific01:04
alleemjg59: status:  I have the keycode (from xev).  I know the XF86<whatever> from XF86symdef.h (or so) ...01:04
alleemjg59: but to write add a map in xkb/inet  I to find the translation table  keycode -> key <xyz>.01:06
mjg59allee: Look under /etc/X11/xkb01:07
mdzwasabi_: I had it build against the dom2 stuff in libjaxp1.2-java (you don't read ubuntu-changes?)01:07
alleemjg59: done.  but I check again.01:07
mdzwasabi_: unfortunately ecj wouldn't compile it, so it's still using jikes at the moment01:07
mjg59allee: I don't pretend to understand xkb. It's a complicated specification.01:09
alleemjg59: me too :(01:09
mdzwasabi_: I got a very weird failure on libbsf-java: http://people.ubuntu.com/~lamont/buildLogs/libb/libbsf-java/1:2.3.0+cvs20050308-1ubuntu2/libbsf-java_1:2.3.0+cvs20050308-1ubuntu2_20050607-2349-i386-failed.gz01:10
alleemjg59: nevertheless it drives me cracy that I cant find the keycode defs of <SPCE>  <AE01>  etc :(01:10
mdzall I did was remove the jython deps and test that it still built locally01:10
=== allee hits head at the wall. xkb/keycodes/xfree86 is it.
alleemjg59: thx for making me search twice.  Now I can produce a xkb symbol file :)01:15

jbaileymdz: pong01:41
mdzjbailey: looking for updates on EarlyUserspace, especially the hook for LTSP and getting hotplug or hotplug-ng going01:42
jbaileymdz: I worked out with Fabio this morning how we're going to make it so that you can use initramfs with an option in /etc/kernel-img.conf.  I have some test hooks in my local tree right now but they just execute whatever scripts in a directory unordered, which I think won't work.  For the hotplug stuff, there's bits in 2.6.12-rc6 which Fabio is working on tomorrow that allow you to just feed that info to mod01:44
jbaileyprobe to load the right driver.01:44
jbaileymdz: So there should be no need for hotplug-ng in the initramfs at all.01:45
jbaileymdz: Also, I have mdadm tentatively working, but there's a segfault that wants 1.0.10 at least to fix (or a fix backported that I looked at this afternoon before I ran out)01:46
jbaileyI've listed in the EarlyUserspace spec all the configs I think we have to support and a status beside them.01:46
=== spacey [~spacey@flits101-191.flits.rug.nl] has joined #ubuntu-devel
jbaileymdz: I also looked at what it would take to use busybox + uclibc.  busybox's modprobe doesn't support ppc64 and uclibc doesn't have the pieces for hppa, ia64 or x86-64.  It looks like I can get it down to about 400k with the features that I need, though.01:50

mdzjbailey: what are the bits in 2.6.12-rc6 like?  a tool which scans the various buses and calls modprobe?03:22
mdzjbailey: how is it different from hotplug-ng or hotplug?03:23
jbaileyhotplug-ng is just a hotplug bit that accepts the calls from kernelspace.  hotplug includes a bunch of 'coldplug' scripts that walk the bus and sorts out what should be loaded when.03:24
jbaileyThose were going to be ported to hotplug-ng, but in the annoucement of v002 on lkml he mentioned this new thing for coldplugging.03:25

jbaileyIt appears to put all the information needed into sysfs.  Because fabio's uploading -rc6, it semes to make sense to take a look at it before moving all the old hotplug scripts into the initramfs.03:27

mdzjbailey: won't we need hotplugging functionality anyway, in order to handle e.g. USB?04:22
jbaileymdz: The only case I can think of was someone racing to plug their USB device in that's required for boot after the initramfs had started and before the bit needing the device ran.04:25
jbaileyAside from that, the system hotplug should deal with it when it fires up.04:25

\shhmm...11:43
\shwhen I'm using #include <limits> and then using std::numeric_limits<int>max() will it give me on 32bit and 64bit the maximum of int depending on the arch?11:44
zyga\sh: on amd64 int is still 32 bits11:45
zyga\sh: size_t will be 64 bits, long will be 64 bits but int stays 32 11:46
\shok...i will explain the other way around11:46
\shright now, the source is using stdint.h11:46
\shanjd trying to use INT64_MAX and INT32_MAX11:47
\shwhen I compile this code with g++-4 it's complaining that those defines are not declared in this scope11:47

zyga\sh: do you want different value based on current arch?11:51
Kamionpitti: sure ...11:51
pittiKamion: mdz, ogra, and me had a short discussion yesterday about this CD-ROM issue11:52
Kamionpitti: the main thing is that /cdrom is used before pmount is installed11:52
\shzyga: well, warped defines 11:52
\shconst warped64_t warped64Max = INT64_MAX;11:52
\shconst warped64_t warped64Min = INT64_MIN;11:52
\shconst warped64_t warped32Max = INT32_MAX;11:52
\shconst warped64_t warped32Min = INT32_MIN;11:52
pittiKamion: are there issues with removing the cdrom stuff from fstab?11:52
pittiKamion: ah, for apt-cdrom and the like?11:52
Kamionyes11:53
pittihm, true11:53
zyga\sh: I see - well you might as well try to get those #defines working11:53
Kamionnowadays that's in the first stage, in fact, before the first reboot11:53
zyga\sh: they are probably regarded as 'evil' since they have global scope ;-)11:53
Kamionalthough mind you, apt-setup does 'mount $CDDEV /cdrom' or some such11:53
pittimvo: would apt-cdrom be able to deal without an fstab entry?11:53
=== jdthood [jdthood@x105.decis.nl] has joined #ubuntu-devel
Kamionah, but it looks in fstab to find the device11:54
\shzyga: yes Iwill :) but it breaks on all archs :) and the debian patch breaks, too...so I need another solution..as we're speaking about c++ lets try the c++ way11:54
KamionI think we might run into trouble in situations where the device is not just /dev/cdrom11:54
pittiKamion: hm, right11:54
Kamionjust trying to work out if that ever happens11:54
pittiKamion: although it equally breaks on my system where the actual CD-ROM is _not_ /dev/cdrom nor /cdrom either11:54
KaiL855resolution (or better a Version compatible with 915) should go into main - seams to be needed very often...11:54
mvopitti: not right now11:54
zygahmm11:55
zygapitti: do you have /dev/cdrom ?11:55
Kamionpitti: let me try a quick install test with removable media support killed from partman-target11:55
pittiKamion: hm, it's a special case either way (try to mount /dev/cdrom or /cdrom)11:56
zyga(on ubuntu I never had /dev/cdrom or /dev/dvd created)11:56
Kamionpitti: what is the actual problem with having it in fstab? I've never quite understod11:56
Kamion+o11:56
pittizyga: yes, but I also have a /dev/cdrom1 and a /dev/cdrw, and my usual drive is the cdrw one11:56
pittiKamion: oh, it's just to support changing hardware better11:56
mvopitti: what would apt have to do to find a cdrom? what steps/dependencies would be involved?11:56
zygapitti: strange... something must be buggy here I guess11:56
pittimvo: well, on my system it seems to try to mount /cdrom11:57
pittimvo: which fails, because the CD is in /media/cdrom111:57
zygapitti: what creates those links? I have none {cdrom,cdrw,dvd} ?11:57
pittimvo: so instead of trying to mount /cdrom, maybe it could try to mount /dev/cd* until it finds a Debian CD?11:57
pittizyga: udev11:57
pittiKamion, mvo: if we manage to drop this hardcoded /cdrom from apt-cdrom, we might be able to drop the CD-ROMs from fstab at all and even make the stuff work on multi-CD systems, too11:58
Kamionpitti: I guess part of what concerns me is that, if we rely entirely on pmount for this, we screw over server installs. Servers have CD drives too ...11:59
Kamionand pmount is only in desktop11:59
Kamionpitti: also /dev/dvd*11:59
zygapitti: oh well it's broken then 11:59
mvopitti: if it depends on pmount I wouldn't want to do it. debian will probably not follow us here (at least not yet)11:59
pittiKamion: well, apt-cdrom needs sudo anyway, so it could just use mount?11:59
zygaI got /media/cdrom and /media/cdrom0 but nothing in /dev11:59
pittiKamion: I didn't thing about using pmount in apt-cdrom12:00
Kamionpitti: that only works for aptable CDs12:00
Kamionpitti: people want to mount CDs that we did not make, surprisingly enough ;-)12:00
pittiah, ok12:00
pittihm, fair point12:00
Kamionand 'mount /cdrom' is a traditional way to do it12:00
Kamionwhich I'm quite reluctant to break12:00

pittiKamion: actually yes (it has worked fine for me since warty on my boxes)12:04
Kamionpitti: ah, I guess partman-target is using the canonical device names rather than /dev/cdrom12:05
Kamionpitti: would it help if I made it use /dev/cdrom etc. if available?12:05
pittiKamion: I don't know in general, but it wouldn't help to unbreak apt-cdrom on my system at least12:05
pittiwell, unbreak is too harsh12:06
pittimake it work better 12:06
Kamionpitti: it would seem to help with the hardware-changing case12:06

mvopitti: I think I could make apt smarter about multiple cdroms. if it importend for us I can spend a bit of time on it12:11
mvopitti: it's a matter of checking /dev/{cd*,dvd*}?12:11
pittimvo: it's not really a biggie, but if it could become smarter, that would rock12:12
pittimvo: it should iterate through all /dev/cd* and dvd*, try to mount, check if it's an Ubuntu CD and unmount if it isn't12:12
=== terrex [~terrex@84-122-69-8.onocable.ono.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel
pittimvo: the mountpoint does not necessarily need to be /cdrom, right? It could be /var/foo/cdrom, as in the installer12:13
pittimvo: so at least apt-cdrom would not depend on an fstab entry any more12:13
Kamioncould just be /media/$devicetail12:15
Kamionwhich would fit with where (I think) Debian wants to go12:15
mvothat should be possible12:16
pittiKamion: so if we had only one fstab entry for /dev/cdrom, that would reasonably cover the hw changing, too AFAICS12:17
Kamionuntil apt supports this, it's probably best to have the installer use /dev/cdrom only if that matches the drive your CD is actually in12:17

ogracant you implement the search on the right ? o even better, mozilla like ....01:50
ograkoke, i would drop one of the panes.... else i think its awesome :)01:51

jdonghow do you want me to handle them?01:54
Kamiondaniels: #11545's causing CD image trouble - sorry to hassle, but when will you get a chance to fix it?01:54
\shmvo: where is your repos for gnome-app-install? ,-)01:54
ograjdong, like we do it ?01:54
jdongI'm backporting qca for Hoary01:54
KamionNOOOOO01:54
mvo\sh: it's in gnome-cvs01:54
Kamionjdong: use the C++ ABI in Hoary01:54
jdongdo you want me to preserve the libqcac2?01:54
ajmitchjdong: c2 is only if it's built with the new C++ ABI01:54
ograjdong, there is a bunch of wiki pages about the Cxx transition01:54
jdongok, so you want me to strip off the "c2"?01:54
Kamionjdong: use package names that match those in Hoary01:54
=== ealden [~ealden@219.90.91.117] has joined #ubuntu-devel
jdongKamion: the package isn't in Hoary ;)01:55
Kamionjdong: they may be missing c2 entirely, or they may have c10201:55
Kamionjdong: ok, probably drop c2 entirely then01:55
ograjdong, it can be a PITA to backport c++ packages, i'd consider it twice01:55
jdongk01:55
Kamionjdong: doesn't libqca have a soname?01:55
\shmvo: i have this repos here http://www.burtonini.com/arch/01:55
\shand yours http://people.ubuntu.com/~mvo/arch/ubuntu/gnome-app-install--mvo--0/01:55
Kamionah, libqca1c201:55
ograjdong, at least at this state of the transition...01:55
Kamionso make it libqca101:55
\shjdong: what?01:56
mvo\sh: ross recently imported it into gnome-cvs, I asked the baz people to import it from gnome-cvs back into arch again :)01:56
Kamionogra: shouldn't be an issue as long as they only ever use the Hoary ABI01:56
ogra\sh, backpting c++ libs01:56
Kamionoh, although I guess the Breezy package would have to conflict with the backport01:56
ograKamion, i mean dependency wise.... 01:56
jdongKamion: not really01:56
Kamion Conflicts: libqca101:56
Kamion Replaces: libqca101:56
\shogra: ja w801:56
ograKamion, they do01:56
Kamion... except it already does01:56
Kamionjdong: yes really. :)01:57
ograKamion, we conflict with the old names.... that shouldnt be an issue01:57
jdongI'll remove the Replaces:, but rename Conflicts: to libqcalc201:57
jdongthat ok?01:57
Kamionjdong: no, remove both replaces and conflicts01:57
jdongok01:57
Kamionmatching the version in Debian01:57
\shjdong: source package qca01:57
Kamionogra: it would be an issue if a C++ library were newly introduced in Breezy01:57
ograKamion, but we also apply debian patches for gcc4, so they might be incompatible with the old one in some cases....01:58
mvokoke: the main package view is great! but the lefthand side is not optimal. how would we eg display the categories?01:58
Kamionogra: if they do, you've broken it, don't do that01:58
ogradepending on the patch01:58
\shogra: libqca is qt lib for tls stuff for psi01:58
Kamionogra: patches for gcc4 should make it *more* standards-compliant, not less01:58
\shogra: and it doesn't have any patches01:58
ograKamion, i didnt try if they compile with the old version...01:58
ogra\sh, ok01:59
Kamionogra: if a C++ library were newly introduced in Breezy, backporting it would involve adding c102 to the package name and getting the package in Breezy to conflict/replace the backport01:59
Kamionthat would be correct ...01:59
ograKamion, yep01:59
Kamionogra: you should, I think01:59
Kamionogra: otherwise the patch cannot cleanly go upstream01:59
Kamionwhich should be part of our job01:59
ograKamion, they come *from* upstream (debian)01:59
ajmitchthe most likely case of new C++ libs will still be syncs from sid01:59
Kamionogra: they come from random Debian bug reports, usually02:00
Kamionwhich isn't quite the same thing02:00
ograyep02:00
Kamionand that's only one step upstream, anyway02:00
ograKamion, i had the impression etch would switch soon to gcc402:00
Kamionogra: I imagine it will, yes. That doesn't mean upstream (not Debian) don't care about older compiler versions02:00
ajmitchogra: depends on how long the flames last02:00
ograso if they compile with gcc4 it should be fine02:00
Kamionit's just sloppy to fix for gcc4 and break older compilers, unless you know and clearly document that you're doing it ...02:01
kokemvo: it's like the current patch02:01
kokeif there's no search, the categories view is shown02:02

Amaranthwhere does it get it's app list from?02:09
jdongand another question relating to the Forums: what should we recommend as the preferred way of compiling/installing from source? Checkinstall? /usr/local?02:09
Kamioneither of those should work fine, as long as it doesn't touch /usr outside /usr/local ...02:10
jdongso you guys are fine with either method?02:10
Kamionspeaking for myself only02:10
jdongk02:11
KamionI don't really see a need to recommend a single method; I don't find that one size fits all02:11
Kamionbut I don't know checkinstall well02:11
kokeAmaranth: that data is hard-coded (by now) :P02:11
Amaranthkoke: but where will it come from eventually?02:12
Amaranthkoke: the package data and the screenshot, i mean02:12
ajmitchAmaranth: eventually launchpad, I'd say02:12
Amaranthlaunchpad? this is ubuntu specific, isn't it?02:13
jdongKamion: it makes a very hasty .deb, so at least the installed files are managed by the dpkg system02:13
Amaranthunless you're using that autopackage crack :)02:13
Kamionjdong: using /usr or /usr/local?02:13
mvoAmaranth: the .desktop files of the packages provide quite a bit of information already02:14
jdongKamion: wherever 'make install' does it by default02:14
KamionI guess if it's in a .deb, /usr is sort of OK, but it brings up issues of distributed packages having to conflict with local packages, so /usr/local would be better02:14
Kamionjdong: ok, should generally be /usr/local then02:14

pittiinfinity: some "could not install packages" foo03:48
sparklingKamion ok tnx i'll try the wiki03:48
pittiinfinity: dunno whether a g-b helps, though03:48
infinitypitti : That looks like the sort of thing you should whine to daniels about, not me.03:49
infinitypitti : (Actually, don't, I'm just trying to irritate him)03:49
infinitypitti : Probably build-deps with conflicting dependencies, leading to X stuff getting uninstallable.03:50
pittiinfinity: don't worry, I tried to ping him already about the qt-x11-free FTBFS03:50
infinity(At a guess)03:50
pittiinfinity: ok, I try in a dchroot03:50
infinityA give-back almost certainly won't fix it.03:50
infinity(I['ll give 'em back anyway, spinning a build for 3 seconds doesn't hurt)03:50
infinityYay, I'm turning into lamont, lazy troubleshooting and all.03:51

pitti(bah, and WTH is pike anyway...)03:52
sparklingtseng what does "as a persistent Copy-On-Write overlay" mean exactly?03:52
tsengit means what it says really03:52
tsengits an overlay of the cd filesystem03:53
infinitypitti : It's a scripting language.03:53
tsengso if you write a file, it makes a changed copy in the overlay03:53
tsengand overrides the one on the cd03:53
pittiinfinity: I know, it's just sooo common... :-)03:53
ograpitti, morgue it :-D03:53
sparklingso after that procedure..each time i boot from the live with the usb inserted i can use a program installed on the usb pen?03:53
infinitypitti : Also the core for roxen and causium.  Which makes it evil by definition.03:53
sparklingfor example03:53
ograpitti, who needs pike ;)03:53
infinitys/causium/caudium/03:53
tsengsparkling: presumably.03:53
sparklingok tnx03:54
pittiinfinity: ah, so we have a language that nobody uses as a dependency for a web server that nobody uses and both is in main???03:54
infinitypitti : Nope, same build-dep breakage on a retry.03:54
pittiinfinity: ok, thanks03:55
infinitypitti : caudium is in main?!03:55
infinitypitti : You must be joking.03:55
pittino, it isn't03:55
pittihowever, pike is in main, something must pull it in...03:55
infinityBuild-dep for swig.03:57
infinityI bet nothing in Debian/Ubuntu actually generates pike extensions with swig.  Maybe I should just turn that language off, and kick pike to universe. :)03:58
pitti++ :-)03:58
Treenakspeople use pike? ;)03:58
ajmitchwhy does pike appear in universe here?03:58

Kamionrobertj: was one of those things that was painful to check in advance, due to the way apt-setup works04:16
JohnDongI'm already gettin bugged about it04:16
Kamionrobertj: as in, in order to test it properly, you had to hack up your mirror to pretend that sarge was already stable04:17
JohnDongweren't you guys planning to offer "update packs" for Hoary?04:17
JohnDongat least that was referenced to in Bugzilla04:17
robertjKamion: maybe it should just always point to sarge04:18
JohnDongand also, do you guys mind if I apply the Firefox frame injection patch to the Backports version04:18
Kamionrobertj: people say that a lot; I don't understand why it's done this way, but I know there was a reason04:18
fabbioneJohnDong: please do not backport the kernel or l-r-m04:18
Kamionwell, s/understand/remember/ maybe04:18
robertjKamion: I suspect its because theoretically you should be able to dist-upgrade via crond and never have a problem, in some bizzarre fantasy world04:18
fabbioneJohnDong: it's a bad idea if you don't backport hell of a lot of other stuff04:18
JohnDongfabiione: I won't... wasn't planning on it04:18

robertjKamion: are they going to alter stable to fix that bad adding a dep on base?04:19

ograJohnDong, ?04:19
JohnDongogra: can I add https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=296850 to the Backports version, as it is vulnerable04:20
JohnDongsupposedly 1.0.2 (Hoary) is unaffected, so it's just a Backports/Breezy problem04:20

JohnDongyep04:25
pittiJohnDong: that's a thom issue; but supposedly they will release 1.0.5 soon then?04:26

robertjKamion: If you broke the rules and added a package to *ahem* Stable, you could fix the sources.list in a postinst04:27
Kamionrobertj: nah, overcomplicated compared to just rebuilding the CDs, and posting the trivial fix to announcement lists04:28
robertjKamion: I think, except for policy dogma, it's worth it because Debian is going to have trouble living this one down04:29
Kamionbuilding the CDs against a current archive fixes the problem; the problem was just that the CDs were built before release, and the tweaks to make sure they thought they were stable weren't complete04:29

ograit drops the dataset on your desktop08:22
ograthe structure is always the same...08:22
Mithrandirmdz: I disagree; we've a lot of changes which haven't been pushed back well enough.  We have a bunch of ubuntu-specific packages which should really have been rolled into debian, we're far from up-to-date on merging stuff.08:23
elmoMithrandir: dude, be fair, do we suck compared to everyone else?08:24

ograhaha http://www.daskeyboard.com/08:25
jdubelmo: has that point been made well on the lists?08:25
mdzMithrandir: we have never set a goal of having every patch in the BTS, or having a minimal delta relative to Debian at any given time08:25
Mithrandirmdz: we've been going around saying "we give back" and I think we're far from good enough at that.08:26
mdzour goal is to contribute back, and we have been and are doing that.  of course everyone would like to do more, but this is a zero-sum game and our resources are limited.08:26

ogramdz, colaboration08:29
mdzthat, too, is a much broader issue than MOTU08:29
mdzthat's a decision to be taken by Ubuntu as a whole08:29
tsengmdz: the initial issue I started posing was what to do with NEW motu packages not in Debian08:31
mdzMithrandir: if you feel that more work should be done, why don't you spend your own time doing the work?  the problem with this whole attitude is that everyone expects someone else to pay for it.08:31
tsengbut yes, the issue in general affects everyone.08:31
elmoyay, syncs work better when the mirror your sync from isn't 2 days out of date08:31
jdthoodI don't agree with the complainers.  Ubuntu patches are freely available.  Any Debian maintainer who cares can backport the relevant portions of those patches; then the patches will be smaller when ubuntu does the next sync.08:31
=== Kamion *is* spending some of his own time (i.e. not work time) doing the work
Mithrandirmdz: I try to make all my packages have the exact same source in ubuntu and Debian, even when doing stuff such as the python transition.  I, like everybody else, have a limited amount of time available, but I try to do my part at least.08:32

cholsnow, but you've confirmed that the device file is there, fdisk reports that partition and if you make another fs on that partition, does that work?08:47
dilingerjdthood: i was thinking more in terms of a larger context; not only pulling in patches from ubuntu, but others as well.  the easy tasks would be pulling in bugfixes and such; however, they could also determine desired features/reworkings that would be beneficial for debian to pull in, and work w/ the derived distribution maintainers and debian maintainers to get it complete08:48

dilingerjbailey: just curious.  i'm not sure how pxeboot and friends handle initrds (if they do at all); however, if the equivalent initramfs image could simply be appended to the kernel image..08:50
dilingerjbailey: a coworker and i were just discussing ways around system disk failures; with netbooting that sort of thing, we wouldn't have to rely on system disks at all (we already use openafs for important data and home directories)08:51

ogrampt, i'd love to rip them apart ... especially since tey have redundant settings with gnome-power now....09:37
\shogra: thx for the warped fix upload :)09:37
ograthe power powermanagement should happen completely in the powermanager ....09:37
ogra\sh, it was a one liner....09:37
mptogra: breezy? or breezy+1? :-)09:38
ograheh... too much power in the above sentence09:38
ogrampt, breezy09:38
mptMORE POWER09:38
ogrampt, gnome-power will be our frontend to all the powermanagement stuff, xscreensaver has a own powermanagement, i'd like to integrate it where it belongs, so the screensaver preferences will have a big gap and should get a bit of redesign09:39
Nafalloogra: sounds very sane indeed :-).09:40
ograNafallo, yes, but a good bunch of extra work....09:40
ograbut given that the screensave is the worst integrated thing we have, probably worth the time....09:41
Nafallo:-)09:42
mptogra: Unfortunately, it *does* make sense for the screensaver choice to be next to the screensaver delay, and for the screensaver delay to be next to the screen blanking delay, and for the screen blanking delay to be next to the standby/suspend/whatever delay, and for the standby/suspend/whatever delay to be next to the other power settings09:42
ogrampt, you mean a xscreensaverandpowermanagementinterface *g* ?09:42

ograthe first one looks ok to me... but i still have no idea about the second one09:46
ograNafallo, nope09:46
ograNafallo, they need integration with pmi09:47
mptogra: For the second one you can make it simpler by making arbitrary decisions and sending people to gconf if they want to twiddle09:47
Nafalloogra: and the panel I guess :-)09:47
BurgundaviaI think that "critically low battery icon" has no use case for not having it displayed09:47
mptogra: e.g. battery is critical when below 5 minutes09:47
ograNafallo, thats pmi :)09:47

Burgundaviaand users don't need to set the critical limit09:48

ogrampt, or how many percent ? i like to adjust it to 1% .... to be able to work as long as possible09:48
ograBurgundavia, its cool for keyboardy and mice09:48
mptogra: Percent means nothing, because power usage varies. Minutes are the useful unit.09:48
ograkeyboards even09:49
ogrampt, all laptops i have dont report minutes09:49
Burgundaviaogra, the UI is not clear that it affects keyboards and mice, and there is still no use case09:49
