[12:03] i think PCI class 3 are graphic cards [12:04] hughsie, what do you want to put there ? [12:04] "Battery is critical when" and the 4 checkboxes [12:04] i'm sure other stuff will com up [12:04] herzi: I'll ping upstream, but according to teuf it doesn't work fine [12:04] herzi: I don't want to create a bug flood on that [12:05] seb128: of course === KaiL [KaiL@p548F630B.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [12:05] i was just asking, because people in #rhythbox told me about a month ago that they are using it fine [12:05] hughsie, yes, why not, i see no problem with another tab [12:05] .oO(and someone will need to enable it by default to get the missing bits fixed) [12:05] herzi: really dependant of the kind of file you edit according to teuf [12:06] yeah [12:06] ok. I've found something: http://developer.apple.com/qa/hw/hw91.html [12:06] but before pushing on upstream I prefer to be sure than upstream will respond [12:06] sweet, consider it done. I can only see more options coming for differnt things, and I don;t want to blind the average user when the defaults would do fine for most cases [12:06] seb128: okay, i'll file a bug and add you and teuf to the cc [12:06] then we can discuss it there, better than irc [12:06] thanks [12:06] upstream bug? [12:07] i think it also gives the options tab a better look, it appears quite full currently [12:08] ogra: agreed. [12:08] seb128: ubuntu [12:08] maybe putting that upstream to discuss the default value for the configure option [12:09] okay [12:09] I would be happy to follow upstream on this [12:09] and both teuf and me are subscribed to the upstream bugzilla for it === pedro [~pedro@pc-200-74-115-216.megavia.pc.metropolis-inter.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel [12:24] ogra: I have a new tab, and a few more options - double clicking on the default icon will be able to perform an action too - good/bad?

[12:35] yep :) [12:35] good plan [12:35] i can always remove the option from g-p-p and keep it as a gconf [12:35] beagle and blam also use signal click [12:35] right [12:36] so does update-manager, AFAICR [12:38] okay, i get the point, thanks :) === KaiL [KaiL@p548F7A73.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [12:51] hm, damnit, the firefox and evolution icons still haven't been restored to the default top panel [12:51] and no mdz around to delegate upwards to ...

[08:19] yeah, but ... :) [08:19] lamont: a kernel backport requires also all the userland tool syncronzation...

[10:23] you can call it safely on any device regardless of naming format, as long as the device exists [10:23] Depends: di-utils-mapdevfs [10:23] ok cool thanks === JanC [~janc@dD5764BEC.access.telenet.be] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:24] Kamion: i did quite a lot of progresses already in auto-lvm [10:24] Kamion: but there is the problem that pvscan/vgcreate do not recognize the devfs name.. [10:24] so i need to map it back to get it right [10:24] right, that happens [10:24] yeah no big deal :) === herzi [~herzi@d059156.adsl.hansenet.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:25] hey, is 'going within 500 miles of devfs' on that "list of things we really should clean up - one day" spec? [10:25] elmo: aka "uglyhacks"? [10:25] right, that was it === Mithrandir [~tfheen@vawad.err.no] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:29] elmo: yes, there's a "clean up devfs paths" item there === lamont makes a note to beat daniels over the head for having xorg build-depend libxcursor-dev which build-depends libxfixes-dev which xorg provides [10:33] lamont : The whole situation will improve when the modularisation is complete. Bootstrapping xorg right now is a bit unfun, though. [10:33] infinity: exactly === gbon121 [~peppe@bohr.pisa.iol.it] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:34] wasabi: the last ant upload did break java/gcj :-( bad idea to upload a new ant with a dependency on a ecj-bootstrap, which failed to build. [10:34] lamont : I'm working with him to make sure the pain is lessened as quickly as possible. [10:34] lamont : I have a vested interest in making sure we can boostrap xorg from a xcroched-earth scenario as easily as possible, and he has a vested interest in me buying him alcohol and not killing him in his sleep. It's a good trade. [10:35] s/xcorched/scorched/ ... I wonder if that was freudian. [10:35] Kamion: we need to consider to remove DEVFS support in the kernel soon. .13 won't have it upstream [10:36] fabbione : YAY! [10:36] infinity: right now, it's a matter of installing just the right stuff from hoary, and the right stuff from breezy to make life happier.

[10:44] Kamion: [10:44] echo $path -> ok [10:44] fabbione: it's easy to fix given examples, generally [10:45] realpath="$(mapdevfs $path)" [10:45] echo realpath -> empty [10:45] you need to use mapdevfs $path || true unless you're certain $path exists [10:45] what is $path? [10:46] path is always set (got it from the a PARTITION_INFO) [10:46] it's usually /dev/ide/host0/.... [10:46] that is mapped to /dev/hda1 [10:46] works from busybox [10:49] fabbione: "works from busybox" - what do you mean? [10:49] infinity: and it helps to have the morgue nearby. :-( [10:50] Kamion: the same 4 lines of above, they work fine if executed in the busybox shell [10:50] i assume they use the same shell... [10:50] infinity: specifically, xorg -32 needs xcursor >=1.3-1ubuntu1; the current xcursor needs an xorg >-10 to be in the archive, and hoary gives you 1.1.3-1 and -10 [10:50] the shell should be irrelevant [10:50] but your poor quoting might be relevant :P [10:50] (mapdevfs is a C program) [10:51] um - are you trying to run this from a normal system? do you have mapdevfs in $PATH? :-) [10:51] Kamion: i did check and try different ones.. i will check again [10:51] it won't be installed on normal systems [10:52] Kamion: i am running it from inside d-i on a test box [10:52] the binary is only shipped in a udeb === lamont waits to make sure that xorg gets through configure before going to bed [10:52] fabbione: yes, but how are you managing to try any shell other than busybox inside d-i? === marilize [~marilize@196.36.161.235] has joined #ubuntu-devel === aeddan [~aeddan@203.39.89.243] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:53] Kamion: isn't d-i running inside busybox?

[10:55] ok [10:56] i started installing the machine. so i have d-i "running" at partioning stage, where i can select "Guided partitioning" -> "Use free space as lvm" [10:56] so i do select "Use free space as lvm" === aigarius [~aigarius@cable-62-205-80-136.upc.chello.be] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:57] that option runs /lib/parman/automatic_partitioning/60vg_all_free/do_option [10:57] i need to run mapdevfs inside do_option [10:57] now.. i edit that file from the shell on f2 [10:58] and tested there that it wasn't failing [10:58] but [10:58] to add extra debug i added to do_option [10:58] echo path $path >>/var/log/messages 2>&1 || true [10:58] in a bunch of points [10:58] and i can see that $path is ok [10:59] ok, if I were you I'd add 'set -x' to do_option and run it from partman [10:59] next step: [10:59] fabbione: Hey there, do we have a working 2.6.12 d-i image already? [10:59] sivang: current daily builds [10:59] realpath="$(mapdevfs "$path")" [10:59] Kamion: cool, with all of the ppc64 stuff in right? [10:59] echo realpath $realpath >>/var/...

[11:28] Kamion: it works [11:30] erm, boggle [11:31] interesting [11:31] for some reasons mapdevfs fails in there [11:31] i did try a: [11:31] realpath="$(mapdevfs $path)" || realpath="test" [11:32] and i got test... [11:32] all that mapdevfs does is to look at the major and minor numbers of the device file you give it, and work out the traditional path corresponding to those [11:32] strace it [11:32] (you can get strace.deb and udpkg -i that) [11:33] it might be a shell bug; doe realpath="$(true)" || realpath="test" give you test or ""? [11:34] Kamion: ok [11:34] but i still wonder why it works in the other parts of d-i [11:36] Mithrandir: never had a problem there [11:36] fabbione: let's put it this way ... it's unlikely to be mapdevfs breakage ;-) [11:36] Kamion: oh i agree... [11:37] i am not blaming mapdevfs [11:37] unless the device in question has major and minor numbers that mapdevfs doesn't know about [11:37] given that it works from busybox.. [11:37] i am sure there is something royally wrong in what i am doing... [11:37] i just don't get what [11:38] AH [11:38] the device must exist for mapdevfs to work [11:38] so THAT might be the problem === hunger [~hunger@p54A66741.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel === fabbione sighs at udev [11:43] Kamion: our code is too fast :P === ivoks [~ivoks@wall3.grad.hr] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:46] BINGO!

[02:33] sivang: roughly, apt equivalent for d-i [02:34] Kamion: it's interesting that templates.db isn't updated at all [02:34] fabbione: the problem is that there's no mechanism for something you run by hand on tty2 to communicate with the main running debconf instance on tty1 to tell it to load new templates [02:34] Kamion: the template file it's simply not changed [02:34] fabbione: it almost certainly is, but gets overwritten shortly afterwards when debconf on tty1 next saves [02:34] oh hmm [02:35] we need some kind of out-of-band communication, maybe a signal you send to debconf after fiddling with templates.db [02:35] Kamion: no.. it's not modified at all [02:35] udpkg calls debconf-loadtemplate when it sees a .templates file [02:38] hmmm ok. you are right...

I was thinking on the line of getting my own udeb with just a shell script in there that depends on e2fsprogs-udeb ... but maybe there's an easier way? [07:09] xTina: I think there'll have to be a bit of coding involved; you could create the partitions you need and mount them all under /target, bypassing partman entirely [07:12] hi ex-mentor :) === icaro [~icaro@adsl-ull-172-24.44-151.net24.it] has joined #ubuntu-devel [07:13] Hi carstenh [07:14] gotta run, thanks Kamion === enTr [~VAIO@211.24.66.45] has joined #ubuntu-devel [07:17] alien [07:17] help?---what is alien [07:17] elmo: ruby1.8 sync, please [07:17] how to install using alien [07:17] pitti: same question I asked yesterday?

[08:29] wasabi_: that seems much easier [08:29] Lintain says no [08:29] Should put it in a script. [08:30] wasabi_: hm, right [08:30] wasabi_: /usr/local might be mounted ro [08:30] wasabi_: yes, then the postinst/postrm makes sense, and postinst should ignore failures on the dir creation === mdz [~mdz@217.205.109.249] has left #ubuntu-devel ["Leaving"] === mdz [~mdz@217.205.109.249] has joined #ubuntu-devel [08:30] pitti: it can work with any editor, I'm sure [08:30] Hmm.

[08:31] wasabi_: no [08:31] wasabi_: /usr/local is taboo for packages [08:31] Oh heck. [08:31] I'll give you some context if it might hange things. [08:31] Eclipse. [08:31] wasabi_: it is fine to create a directory to indicate where the user can plugins to, etc. [08:31] wasabi_: everything you ship and depend on must be in /usr [08:32] /usr/share/eclipse/plugins is where the packaged Eclipse plugins are kept. [08:32] But Eclipse contains an auto install feature which allows you to browse for an install plugins at runtime. [08:32] It's very useful, most third party plugins are published that way. [08:32] So, I have added /usr/local/lib/eclipse/plugins as an alternative source. Eclipse however fails to start when the dir doesn't exist.

[08:32] I wanted to make it easy for users to install system-wide plugins [08:33] From remote sources. [08:33] wasabi_: then you need to patch eclipse to not fail [08:33] wasabi_: well, or at least fail gracefully with explaining that the dir is missing [08:33] Hmm. I could do that in the startup wrapper.

I should be able to make these two commands || true maybe [10:11] the ones you want to ignore, yes [10:11] that should even work with set -e [10:12] seb128: version in ubuntu == version in debian experimental [10:12] elmo: 1.090 and 1.091 ?

[10:15] elmo: yes it's FTBFS on a test case [10:15] but seb128 sync request is right [10:20] oh, 1.091. well it hadn't reached ftp.d.o at the time seb asked for it [10:20] I'll try again late [10:21] thanks [10:21] (http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/libg/libgtk2-perl/ has it) === sabdfl [~mark@sabdfl.silver.supporter.pdpc] has left #ubuntu-devel [] [10:29] oh, I know why [10:29] project is after debian [10:29] hum, maybe. anyway. [10:30] Oh hey I could get added to planet.ubuntu.com couldn't i. === mae builds anjuta2 [10:31] shall i make a deb? [10:32] mae, yes, do it together with MOTU (see #ubuntu-motu) to get it properly reviewed === zenrox [~zenrox@71.115.192.65] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:36] night all [10:39] is GObject meant to deprecate gtkmm? [10:39] huh [10:39] no [10:39] mae: ? [10:40] mae: GTK+ has always been based on an OO design [10:40] mae: GObject is GLib's object's abstraction to allow to use objects in GNOME without actually needing an OO languiage [10:40] mae: gtkmm is about the language [10:41] mae, danielki : it's gtk bindings for C++ no ? [10:42] yes [10:42] erm [10:42] the other way around [10:42] C++ bindings for GTK+ :) [10:42] sivang is right [10:42] actually they both make sense [10:42] = [10:42] wasabi_: right :-) [10:43] wasabi_: how are you doing buddy by the way? [10:43] I am decent. === thoreauputic [~prospero@wolax8-127.dialup.optusnet.com.au] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:45] wasabi_: heheh , how's java stuff going? [10:45] apt-get install eclipse-sdk [10:45] wasabi_: err, I can't, have you gotten into this: [10:45] dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/xlibs-data_6.8.2-32_all.deb (--unpack): [10:45] trying to overwrite `/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb', which is also in package libx11-6 [10:46] Ubuntu has 3.0? 3.1? [10:46] I just replaced it. [10:46] overwrite. [10:46] Then upgraded everything. [10:46] wasabi_: I give it apt-get -f , but it won't work [10:46] install the xlibs-data deb with --force-overwrite [10:46] then just upgrade libx11-6 [10:46] wasabi_: k, thanks a lot [10:48] wasabi_: yay, easy as pie. [10:51] danielki, what I mean is, gtkmm is a wrapper over the c functions also using libsigc.. is GObject is meant to replace gtkmm, right? .. I know that gtk uses and object oriented design [10:51] er gtkmm is a wrapper for the C functions providing C++ bindings, rather :) [10:56] mae: GObject is written in C [10:57] glibmm wraps it too [10:57] ermm but i think GObject was new.. is it not replacing something else?: [10:58] it replaced GtkObject as a base class for everything [10:58] without being GUI related [10:58] i.e. it's kind of a design cleanup [10:59] (GtkObject still exists though, and derives from GObject) [11:02] mae: the main purpose of GtkObject nowadays is to implement container ownership [11:04] i see :) === Echylo [~echylo@78-175.245.81.adsl.skynet.be] has left #ubuntu-devel ["Leaving"] [11:10] elmo about? [11:14] GObject is not new. And I don't know what you mean about "main purpose" [11:14] All of Gtk is built with GObject. [11:15] wasabi_ is right, AFAIK [11:15] gtkmm is just a wrapper around Gtk's GObjects (and probably extending into Gnome stuff too) in C++, so you can use real C++ classes [11:15] IMHO, right again [11:15] GObject itself is just really a small framework and some standards for writing structs so you can prentend to use objects in C. [11:15] (at least that's what I Know that gtkmm is) [11:16] s/small/big/ [11:16] Heh. Eclipse ssureees has been building a long time. [11:17] wasabi: I was talking about the main purpose of GtkObject, to explain why it's actually there at all [11:17] instead of just deriving from GObject directly [11:17] depends what you were tlaking about [11:18] GObject the project or GObject the class. [11:18] the class [11:18] k. [11:18] didn't sound like that at first. [11:18] elmo: is glibc/hppa NEW or somethign? [11:18] has anyone seen jinty lately? [11:19] wasabi_: I sometimes forget that it's a separate project from glib :) [11:19] it's like gdk-pixbuf vs gdk === i_m_meen [~costin@84-247-6-157.evolva.ro] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:25] hello [11:25] just one question: apt-build is a dead project?
