[09:01] what I don't want to do is spam thom with 10 bug reports on something that's a madwifi issue and not NM-related. [09:01] and given that madwifi is restricted, I don't know how useful "it sucks at scanning" will be. [09:03] restricted just because of the firmware, isn't it? [09:03] yep. [09:03] I've also got a madwifi card in my laptop [09:04] what I really want to do is replace the card, but, as mjg59's page points out, thinkpads have a whitelist of allowed mini-pci cards.

[09:28] all I have to say is: you guys are nuts. [09:28] :) [09:29] whiprush: the seems to be a lack of piccys; there's a few crap ones in various places; shoving lugradio live into goodle brings up BillT's photos (BBC guy) and there are two other batches of camera-phone jobbies [09:30] luckily the ubuntu-fu seems strong in them, so there musn't have been too much advocacy that had to be done.

[05:55] Lathiat, but is it better to put the script in event.d or to make a link from init.d/script -> event.d/45script ? [05:56] erm, afaik, event.d is not the same format as an init script [05:56] i could be wrong [05:56] hrm, i am [05:56] i got confused [05:56] i think scripts in event.d are lsb compliant sysv scripts [05:56] i think event.d then perhaps are services that are started when dbus is started [05:56] yes [05:56] neither hal nor avahi use a symlink at the moment [05:57] it's a debian specific thing because debian doesn't have any dependencies in starting services [05:57] i wouldnt say its debian specific [05:57] Lathiat: i'm sebastien :) [05:58] SEBest: i figured :) [05:58] in fact i ask this, especially for avahi [05:58] because you can compile avahi without dbus support [05:58] in this case, there is no reason /etc/dbus-1/event.d exists [05:58] well, there is [05:59] so the script should be in /etc/init.d in this case no? [05:59] arguably [05:59] thats a bit of a touch question [05:59] perhaps putting it in /etc/init.d and then symlinking it to rc2.d or dbus-1/event.d depending on config [05:59] so i was wondering, if it better to install it in init.d when DBUS is disable and event.d when it's enable or [06:00] symlinking [06:00] i think symlinking is better [06:00] cus then i can restart avahi from /etc/init.d [06:00] if i want [06:00] yes, that was my idea, to always install in init.d and symlinks if DBUS is enable [06:01] i was really surprised that debian initscript doesn't have any information about priority [06:01] it does [06:01] the numbers [06:01] oh? [06:01] in rc?.d [06:02] yes, but i don't mean this [06:02] its just order based [06:02] as opposed to priority based [06:02] the init system used by debian doesnt support init dependencies [06:02] init-ng for example does [06:02] imagine i do this: [06:02] update-rc.d -f ssh remove [06:03] now i can't put ssh back at the same order it was before, the information is lost [06:03] so you edit /etc/default and tell it not to boot like most debian packages do :) [06:03] or tho in ssh's case [06:03] its /etc/ssh/no_ssh_on_boot or somerthing like that [06:04] sshd_not_to_be_run [06:04] yeh [06:04] sigh ubuntu s2.6.12 kernel does not play nice with vmware [06:04] a bit hackish isn't it :) [06:04] SEBest: the /etc/default stuff isnt so hackish [06:05] most packages use that [06:05] yes most [06:05] i'm using vmware with 2.6.12, what problem do you have? [06:05] random kernel backtraces in vmware stuff [06:05] that cause the machien to be responsive but useless [06:05] processes wont start [06:05] in the host? [06:05] just sit and hang [06:05] yes [06:06] i'm using breezy 2.6.12, you too? [06:06] yes [06:06] i get scheduling while atomic etc [06:06] and other cruft [06:07] seems to be a result of the vmware bridging code [06:07] doing a null dereference [06:07] vmware 5 ? [06:07] yep [06:08] http://www.vmware.com/products/img/n/vc_ss1_lg.gif <-- thats pretty coool [06:08] really cool!
