| jbailey | shaya: We added extra gerbles in prep for RC next week... | 12:04 |
| shaya | I'm serious | 12:05 |
| ajmitch | so is jbailey, I'm sure :) | 12:05 |
| shaya | it's so much snappier | 12:05 |
| shaya | could the libgnomevfs upgrade have done that? | 12:05 |
| seb128 | no | 12:05 |
| shaya | I doubt gdm update did it | 12:06 |
| seb128 | maybe you have changed your box? :) | 12:06 |
| shaya | nah | 12:06 |
| shaya | just did a big update for the day | 12:06 |
| shaya | ctrl-alt-backspaced | 12:06 |
| shaya | and logged back in | 12:06 |
| shaya | new splash screen was barely seen | 12:06 |
| ogra | so it was xorg apparently | 12:06 |
| shaya | as it flew so fast | 12:06 |
| shaya | perhaps | 12:07 |
| shaya | weird | 12:07 |
| shaya | anyways, off I go | 12:07 |

| jcohen85 | where did boot-admin go? after the latest update in breezy, it disappeared | 12:30 |
| mdz | who broke metacity again? | 12:30 |
| mdz | hmm, behaving now | 12:30 |
| jcohen85 | um, gnome-system-tools removed boot-admin again...damn't | 12:31 |
| mdz | jcohen85: it was disabled due to bugs which won't be resolved in time for se | 12:31 |
| seb128 | jcohen85: it's broken, it has been dropped | 12:31 |
| mdz | s/se/release/ | 12:31 |
| jcohen85 | every time my kernel is updated, the windows xp grub option is deleted | 12:31 |
| jcohen85 | boot-admin atleast allowed me to recreate it easily | 12:31 |
| mdz | jcohen85: that's because of boot-admin | 12:31 |
| jcohen85 | *easily | 12:31 |
| mdz | it created the problem in the first place | 12:31 |
| jcohen85 | jcohen85, how do i stop it from happening? | 12:31 |
| mdz | restore the backup of menu.lst that you made before modifying it | 12:32 |

| jbailey | or not.. | 12:43 |
| michele | I don't see the splash screen either | 12:44 |
| michele | I just get a black screen until X starts | 12:44 |
| michele | usplash-artwork.so - status is auto. | 12:45 |
| jbailey | michele: All black, like no text at all? | 12:46 |
| michele | yes | 12:46 |
| michele | and the console stays black also if I switch back from X | 12:47 |
| jbailey | mjg59: ^^ any guesses? | 12:47 |

| Keybuk | well, there's some good news | 01:12 |
| Keybuk | 15: inputmap finds module FAILED (inputmap.at:12) | 01:12 |
| Keybuk | etc. for all the inputmap modules | 01:12 |
| Keybuk | so make check doesn't even pass on amd64 | 01:12 |
| ogra | hmmm | 01:14 |
| ogra | could that cause keyboard problems ? | 01:14 |
| mjg59 | keyboard is built in statically | 01:14 |
| ogra | i just thought about 16539 | 01:15 |
| Keybuk | only if you're on amd64 | 01:15 |
| ogra | (would be nice to have a pipe and at sign again :) ) | 01:15 |
| Keybuk | this is 64-bit specific | 01:15 |
| Nafallo | ogra: I don't have my synaptics atm ;-) | 01:15 |
| ogra | yup, i am on amd64 | 01:15 |
| ogra | and it doesnt occur on my x86 desktop | 01:16 |
| Nafallo | mjg59: usb-keyboards to? | 01:16 |
| Keybuk | does "modprobe <something>" fix the problem? | 01:16 |
| mjg59 | Nafallo: They're under USB, not input | 01:16 |
| ogra | Keybuk, what wouls <something> be ? | 01:16 |
| Keybuk | no idea | 01:16 |
| ogra | *would | 01:16 |
| Nafallo | mjg59: ah, nice catch :-) | 01:16 |
| ogra | heh | 01:16 |
| Keybuk | I'm not aware of any input keyboard module | 01:17 |
| ogra | me neither, since keyboard is built in statically | 01:17 |
| Nafallo | ogra: cat /var/log/syslog | grep segfault | 01:17 |
| Nafallo | :-) | 01:17 |
| ogra | Nafallo, i cant :p | 01:17 |
| Nafallo | then you know ;-) | 01:17 |
| ogra | no pipe sign :) | 01:17 |
| Nafallo | hmm | 01:17 |
| Nafallo | copy-paste then! :-P | 01:17 |
| === ogra copys and pastes | ||
| ogra | no segfault | 01:18 |
| Nafallo | baah | 01:18 |
| ogra | its very unlikely that the kernel sends segfaults to syslog ;) | 01:18 |
| Nafallo | I'm the only one with the bug ;-( | 01:18 |
| Nafallo | grepmap does for me ;-) | 01:19 |
| Keybuk | heh | 01:21 |
| Keybuk | I'm surprised it ever worked for you, tbh | 01:21 |
| Keybuk | even the hoary version segfaults for me on amd64 when I poke it with obscene information | 01:22 |
| Nafallo | baah | 01:22 |
| Nafallo | must have been a change in the last version AFAIK | 01:23 |
| Keybuk | nah | 01:23 |
| Keybuk | the other version is just slightly more prone to segfaulting as a result | 01:23 |
| Nafallo | well, the reboot after that install triggered it... ;-) | 01:23 |
| Keybuk | because I put an extra sanity check into it | 01:23 |
| === hunger [n=hunger@p54A61B46.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Nafallo | hmm | 01:24 |
| Keybuk | the basic problem is that sizeof (unsigned int) is the same as on i386 | 01:24 |
| Nafallo | bad sanitycheck then... ;-) | 01:24 |
| Keybuk | but the array needs to be twice as big on amd64 | 01:24 |
| Keybuk | I don't have a clue *WHY* it needs to be twice as big yet | 01:24 |
| Nafallo | 32*2=64 :-P | 01:25 |
| Keybuk | yes, but why do amd64's input devices need twice as many flags as i386? :p | 01:25 |
| Nafallo | hmm | 01:26 |
| Nafallo | could it be a kernel bug or something? | 01:26 |
| Nafallo | or wait... I haven't upgraded that one :-P | 01:26 |
| Nafallo | MUST be grepmaps fault ;-) | 01:27 |
| Keybuk | I think it's a "the input subsystem was written by monkeys" bug | 01:27 |
| Nafallo | hehehe | 01:27 |
| Keybuk | basically on amd64 these need to be unsigned hung int rather than unsigned int | 01:27 |
| Keybuk | and the array needs to be the same size | 01:27 |
| Keybuk | (number of elements wise) | 01:28 |
| Keybuk | which means I then can't use scanf() anymore :'( | 01:28 |
| === Keybuk is gonna mull over lunch | ||
| Keybuk | looks like depmod has two different bits of code entirely, one for i386 and the other for amd64 *sigh* | 01:30 |
| === mjr notes that scanf() is mostly evil anyway | ||
| Nafallo | joy! :-) | 01:31 |
| Keybuk | mjr: not especially, it's better than most people's roll-their-own line parsers | 01:32 |
| Keybuk | if you just want a number from a string, it's the right thing (tm) | 01:32 |
| mjr | now that's sscanf(), a completely different story :) | 01:32 |
| Keybuk | that's what I mean :p | 01:32 |
| Keybuk | ahh, no, I understand now | 01:34 |
| Keybuk | the table has to be the same size in memory | 01:34 |
| Keybuk | the 32-bit one is made up of an array of 4-byte unsigned ints | 01:34 |
| Keybuk | the 64-bit one is made up of an array of 8-byte unsigned hung ints | 01:34 |
| Keybuk | the 64-bit one has half the number of elements | 01:34 |
| Keybuk | right | 01:34 |
| lamont | Keybuk: strtol() is your friend for ripping a number from a string... | 01:35 |
| lamont | Keybuk: sure they're not 'long' s? | 01:35 |
| lamont | ah, nm on the longs thing | 01:36 |
| Keybuk | no, definitely unsigned int on i386 and unsigned long long on amd64 | 01:36 |
| lamont | uh, unsigned long long has a good chance of being 128 bits on amd64... | 01:36 |
| === lamont doublechecks | ||
| Keybuk | no, just 64 | 01:37 |
| === zenrox [n=zenrox@71.115.194.118] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Keybuk | right, time to add some autofoolery to check the platform | 01:39 |
| lamont | well, I guess that's good. | 01:39 |
| lamont | but it's really unsigned long, no? (long is 64-bits there...) | 01:39 |
| Keybuk | is it? | 01:39 |
| Keybuk | is that true for all 64-bit platforms? | 01:40 |
| lamont | I know that amd64 and ia64 are both LP64. I expect that ppc64 is too | 01:41 |
| lamont | that is, longs and pointers are 64-bit. | 01:41 |
| lamont | int is some random size between 16 and 64 bits | 01:41 |
| === crimsun [n=crimsun@pdpc/supporter/silver/crimsun] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Keybuk | I think I might just do what depmod does and use long long | 01:41 |
| lamont | although 64-bit int's would make you ILP64, which they toyed with for ia64 at one point. | 01:41 |
| jbailey | lamont: I think GNU Systems are guaranteed to have at least a 32bit int | 01:41 |
| lamont | jbailey: that is, int === 32-bit, or int >= 32bit? | 01:42 |
| jbailey | >= | 01:42 |
| lamont | Keybuk: you could just use uint64_t... | 01:43 |
| === Rotund [n=joe@d28-31.rb.lax.centurytel.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| lamont | Keybuk: which needs #include <sys/types.h>, iirc | 01:44 |
| === lamont wonders if there's another xorg upload already planned, or if he can "just do" a minor one that fixes hppa RC bugs. | ||
| lamont | hrm... "hppa RC bugs" that's kinda amusing | 01:45 |
| Nafallo | lamont: oh? | 01:46 |
| ogra | Keybuk, http://gcc.fyxm.net/summit/2003/Porting%20to%2064%20bit.pdf | 01:46 |
| ogra | ;) | 01:46 |
| lamont | mdz: thoughts on http://people.ubuntu.com/~lamont/xorg.diff - fixes hppa, with minimal change/risk to everyone else | 01:47 |
| ogra | there are the mappings for variables for 32 vs 64 bit arches :) | 01:47 |
| lamont | ogra: and sys/types.h gives you the sized types you need - what do you care what the underlying name is... | 01:47 |
| ogra | true | 01:48 |
| lamont | but Keybuk has a thing for auto*, you see... | 01:48 |
| mjg59 | Now, that is *really* odd | 01:48 |
| lamont | mjg59: ?? | 01:48 |
| mjg59 | If I start irattach after a suspend/resume cycle, this laptop freezes | 01:48 |
| ogra | but i found the doc quite helpful anyway for the Cxx transition :) | 01:48 |
| lamont | ogra: yes | 01:48 |
| lamont | mjg59: score! | 01:48 |
| Nafallo | mjg59: nice :-) | 01:48 |
| mdz | lamont: why is it that all these SCC fixes are coming in at the 11th hour? | 01:49 |
| lamont | mdz: because after midnight would be too late? | 01:49 |
| lamont | truthfully, work has had me hammered on a couple of assigned tasks that I finally got a bit of freedom from this week | 01:49 |
| lamont | based purely on the deadline | 01:49 |
| lamont | the xorg patch makes ubuntu-desktop installable on hppa | 01:50 |
| mdz | lamont: it's just that fabbione is doing the same thing with sparc :-P | 01:50 |
| lamont | I don't know anything about sparc. | 01:50 |
| ajmitch | lamont: are you able to kick a rebuild for scummvm on powerpc? bugreports indicate the problem behind it failing was fixed | 01:51 |
| lamont | ajmitch: universe? | 01:51 |
| ajmitch | yeah | 01:51 |
| mdz | lamont: did you do a full test build on non-hppa? | 01:51 |
| ajmitch | gs was segfaulting last time it tried to build | 01:51 |
| lamont | mdz: built on i386 | 01:51 |
| lamont | I suppose I should do amd64 and ppc for a full 'yes', though. | 01:52 |
| mdz | lamont: with all the same binaries produced as in -72? | 01:52 |
| mdz | one arch should be enough | 01:52 |
| lamont | mdz: given xorg's manifest, I expect that's a yes. | 01:52 |
| lamont | the scripts/vars is a cut/paste from debian/control in -72 | 01:52 |
| lamont | but I'll go do a slew of interdiffs before I consider making it -73 and uploading. | 01:53 |
| mdz | lamont: I mean all the same .debs, since that's what you changed | 01:53 |
| lamont | mdz: actually, all I changed was the dependencies of xserver-xorg | 01:53 |
| mdz | lamont: if you verify that it's a no-op for one other arch, I'm fine with it, though I'd prefer at least one generic bugfix (there's a long list to choose from) | 01:54 |
| lamont | since hppa doesn't deliver xserver-xorg-input-* | 01:54 |
| mdz | oh, so you did. the changelog should say that then ;-) | 01:54 |
| lamont | mdz: I'll review the OB-bug fix list | 01:54 |
| lamont | * xserver-xorg Dependencies on xserver-xorg-input-* need to be optionally | 01:55 |
| lamont | removed for some architectures. (Specifically, hppa has never delivered | 01:55 |
| lamont | them, and that made xserver-xorg uninstallable.) | 01:55 |

| lamont | mdz/elmo: I was wondering how anastasia output with hppa is looking, and if it can come into the fold.... | 03:20 |
| lamont | mdz: and I'd like to do an ubuntu-meta upload sometime this weekend to finish fleshing out hppa/sparc packages... with a discussion with Kamion planned if it changes anything in the other architectures | 03:21 |
| lamont | thoughts? | 03:21 |
| mdz | ubuntu-meta is no problem | 03:22 |
| mdz | I don't know how anastacia looks; I'm not sure that elmo germinates for hppa currently | 03:22 |
| lamont | hppa is not currently generated | 03:22 |
| lamont | which makes it un-debootstrappable (libgcc2) and no CD's (palo) | 03:23 |
| lamont | http://buildd.mmjgroup.com/hppa-hacks is the collection of universe packages that will move into main if hppa is germinated | 03:23 |
| lamont | (the others are build-deps) | 03:23 |
| lamont | hppa64 cross-compiler, and expect-tcl8.3 | 03:23 |
| lamont | the latter works around a really annoyingly difficult to reproduce/find kernel bug where sometimes expect (and others, to be sure) fail to correctly wake up on child death... | 03:24 |
| lamont | _why_ tcl8.4 hits it and tcl8.3 doesn't is, well, part of the mystery | 03:24 |
| Keybuk | lamont: the problem is that I need the code to be different on i386 to amd64 | 03:27 |
| Keybuk | on i386 it has to be an array of 8 unsigned ints | 03:27 |
| Keybuk | and amd64 an array of 4 unsigned long longs | 03:28 |
| lamont | Keybuk: ew | 03:29 |
| Keybuk | otherwise I would just do this the easy way | 03:29 |
| Keybuk | yes, you can tell this code is dealing with the kernel | 03:30 |
| Keybuk | "we could do it the same way for each architecture, but we won't" | 03:30 |
| lamont | "...that would be cheating" | 03:32 |
| Keybuk | they're not that bad though | 03:33 |
| Keybuk | I mean, it's not as if the kernel has a different entry point table for each architecture, is it? | 03:34 |

| Keybuk | this code is very bounds-safe | 04:03 |
| Keybuk | it's probably been busted all this time, but the worst it would've done is give people joysticks a little too often | 04:03 |

| jbailey | Keybuk: The kernel doesn't provide us any notification of when it's done scanning the USB bus, so we do a sleep 2 right now. | 04:54 |
| jbailey | For a USB Harddrive, it needs to be more like sleep 10, it seems. | 04:54 |
| jbailey | I've asked various kernel folks, and haven't found an answer on how to know when it's safe to proceed. | 04:54 |

| Amaranth | this is probably more of an #ubuntu question but does anyone know if there is any support for conexant winmodems in the ubuntu kernel? | 06:17 |
| Keybuk | right, so I fixed the caps lock bug | 06:18 |
| Keybuk | but I don't really understand why | 06:18 |
| Keybuk | heh | 06:18 |
| fabbione | Amaranth: there is a bug open for them.. but i don't think they were included in breezy | 06:19 |

| infinity | ajmitch : Itty bitty bugfixes for obvious bugs are probably still okay without approval, anything bigger should probably go through mdz/Kamion for a quick once-over. | 06:57 |
| ajmitch | infinity: this is fairly minor fix to a postinst for xbel-utils | 06:57 |
| infinity | ajmitch : That would fit category 1 then. :) | 06:57 |
| ajmitch | I'll see if I'm in the keyring yet then.. :) | 06:58 |
| infinity | ajmitch : The more hideous/obvious the bug, and the more simple the fix, the more likely that it's explicitely approved. | 06:58 |

| === Keybuk beats his head against the kernel | ||
| Keybuk | I think the isapnp subsystem must've been written by the same great people that gave us the input subsystem | 08:29 |
| Keybuk | for each module you can get the vendor and device id of each device it supports | 08:29 |
| Keybuk | it's just a shame that there's no way to get the vendor or device id of any connected device | 08:30 |
| Keybuk | "if I told you what the vendor/device pair were, you could use this file to find the module you need to load" | 08:30 |
| mjg59 | Keybuk: There's PNPdump | 08:34 |
| mjg59 | And for pnpbios devices, they're exposed in /sys/bus/pnp/devices | 08:34 |
| mjg59 | Oh, wow | 08:34 |
| mjg59 | There's actually an almost moderate number of devices with entries in modules.isapnpmap now | 08:35 |
| Keybuk | mjg59: they're exposed, but not their vendor/device ids :p | 08:35 |
| Keybuk | the kernel only gives us it's strange PNPid string in the /id file | 08:36 |
| tepsipakki | why is ACPI_SLEEP not yet enabled in acpi-support? | 08:36 |
| mjg59 | tepsipakki: Because there are many machines that it doesn't work on | 08:36 |
| tepsipakki | mjg59: ok, fair enough | 08:36 |
| mjg59 | And giving people a "Crash my computer" button is not a good way of making friends | 08:36 |
| tepsipakki | mjg59: is there a way to make it enabled for known good machines? | 08:37 |
| mjg59 | Keybuk: I have vague memories of there being a mapping from the strings to the pnp IDs | 08:37 |
| mjg59 | tepsipakki: Yes. See ubuntu-devel | 08:37 |
| tepsipakki | oh my.. quite recent =) | 08:37 |
| Keybuk | mjg59: yeah, there's stuff in modalias | 08:37 |
| Keybuk | but really not much | 08:38 |
| Keybuk | 9 entries in modules.alias | 08:38 |
| Keybuk | compared to 226 in modules.isapnpmap | 08:38 |
| tepsipakki | mjg59: my stinkpad T23 works fine, I'll send you mail soon | 08:38 |
| mjg59 | Keybuk: No, I mean ISTR that there's a mechanical transformation between the two | 08:39 |
| Keybuk | mjg59: wouldn't that be rather lossy? the full vendor/device/function set for a pnp device can be quite long ... the ids are just PNPxxxx | 08:40 |
| Keybuk | *shrug* | 08:40 |
| mjg59 | Keybuk: The Vendor ID (EISA Product ID) is defined by the Plug and Play ISA specification as the combined two-byte, three-character compressed ASCII EISA ID, and the two-byte, model-specific number (32 bits total) | 08:40 |
| mjg59 | If it's PNPxxxx then it's just a class ID, and you don't need to worry about it | 08:40 |
| mjg59 | Well, not in the same way - there's a strict mapping of PNPxxxx to hardware classes. They're all serial ports or parallel ports or motherboards or something. | 08:41 |

| Treenaks | mjg59: oh wait, not PNPxxx | 08:50 |

| === Treenaks goes stand in the corner | ||
| tepsipakki | mjg59: both, I've been using ACPI for a year now | 08:51 |

| tepsipakki | mjg59: but the hotkeys don't trigger it now.. used to work though, somehow the sleep.sh isn't run? | 08:52 |
| tepsipakki | logs show that the hotkey is pressed | 08:52 |
| Keybuk | mjg59: you mean things like PNPB003 (Sound Blaster 16) are figmets of someone's imagination? :p | 08:52 |
| mjg59 | tepsipakki: Erm. Odd. | 08:52 |
| pitti | Good morning | 08:52 |
| mjg59 | Keybuk: Bah. They're supposed to be. | 08:52 |
| tepsipakki | similar to 16555 | 08:52 |
| Keybuk | see, the way this is _supposed_ to work is that every device, for every subsystem under /sys/bus has a "modalias" file | 08:54 |
| Keybuk | that file contains a string that looks a bit like | 08:54 |
| jdub | "Ubuntu" is an ancient African word, meaning "I can't configure Slackware". | 08:54 |
| Keybuk | pci:v00001002d00004337sv00000E11sd0000005Abc03sc00i00 | 08:54 |
| Keybuk | which is some magic that we don't have to care about | 08:54 |
| Keybuk | modules have a table of device information they support, which depmod can parse and turn into wildcard-matches for those magic strings which it puts in /lib/$uname/modules.alias | 08:54 |
| mjg59 | Yes, but you don't have that | 08:54 |
| Keybuk | right, but we're supposed to have that :p | 08:54 |
| mjg59 | So you're going to have to do it manually | 08:55 |
| mjg59 | Which is, thankfully, possible with pnp | 08:55 |
| Keybuk | the problem is that there's nowhere to do it manually anymore | 08:55 |
| Keybuk | it seems the effort would be better spent fixing the kernel to actually produce a modalias for isapnp devices | 08:55 |
| mjg59 | tepsipakki: Bah. Older Thinkpads seem weird. | 08:55 |
| tepsipakki | mjg59: some update broke it recently | 08:56 |
| Keybuk | given depmod has gone to all that trouble to make the wildcard matches for it | 08:57 |
| mjg59 | Keybuk: isapnp_parse_id is the transformation from vendor string to letters | 08:58 |
| fabbione | dholbach: i use a KVM here | 08:58 |
| mjg59 | In drivers/pnp/isapnp/core.c | 08:58 |
| dholbach | fabbione: does it happen to kill the mouse when you switch a couple of times? | 08:59 |
| Keybuk | mjg59: but we don't want those ones anymore, we want the ones that match things like: | 08:59 |
| fabbione | no | 08:59 |
| dholbach | fabbione: under windows it didnt move any more, under linux it felt as i had specified the wrong mouse protocol | 08:59 |
| dholbach | FUCK | 08:59 |
| Keybuk | alias pnp:cOPT0924dOPT0000dOPT0002* snd_opti92x_cs4231 | 08:59 |
| dholbach | then i'll send that stupid thing back | 08:59 |
| Keybuk | (from modules.alias) | 08:59 |
| fabbione | dholbach: buy a good KVM :) | 08:59 |

| dholbach | fabbione: this d-link thing doesnt seem to be remotely a good one | 09:00 |
| === dholbach opens the window, chucks it out | ||
| mjg59 | Keybuk: But how are you going to generate that without knowing that transformation? | 09:00 |
| Keybuk | mjg59: the kernel generates those | 09:00 |
| mjg59 | Except it doesn't | 09:01 |
| Keybuk | right, my point is that it should | 09:01 |
| mjg59 | Right | 09:01 |
| Keybuk | because most of the code is clearly there already, because it's generating them for modules, just not devices | 09:01 |
| mjg59 | But we're in kernel freeze | 09:01 |
| Keybuk | yeah, I'm talking dapper | 09:01 |

| pitti | Goonie: I'm eagerly awaiting the workaround test :-) | 09:02 |
| mjg59 | So there's no way of doing a slightly more awkward hotplug for the pnp case? | 09:02 |
| Goonie | pitti: I tested it half an hour ago... see the bugzilla entry... | 09:02 |
| Keybuk | mjg59: we already have /etc/modprobe.d/isapnp which is a list of known pnp ids to module names | 09:02 |
| Keybuk | it's quite small | 09:02 |
| mjg59 | (Since it's blindingly easy to get from the information that the kernel provides to a vendor and device string, and you have a table between those and modules) | 09:02 |
| pitti | Goonie: ah, cool, thanks | 09:02 |
| mjg59 | Keybuk: Uhm. Yes. It's missing huge amounts of stuff. | 09:03 |

| dholbach | fabbione: i will watch out for it | 09:03 |
| mjg59 | The algorithm required is in the code I pointed you at | 09:03 |

| Keybuk | mjg59: what do we do with the function bits? | 09:04 |
| mjg59 | Keybuk: Ignore them? | 09:04 |

| Keybuk | those seem to be the active bits? | 09:04 |
| Keybuk | unless I'm misinterpreting this file | 09:04 |
| mjg59 | The string is built from cardvendor and carddevice | 09:05 |
| mjg59 | That's enough to give you the module you want | 09:05 |
| mjg59 | Hrm. I believe, anyway. Let me check that again. | 09:06 |

| mjg59 | .id seems to end up as the cardvendor/cardid unless there are any .devs, in which case it's on the left and the devices fill up the right hand column | 09:20 |
| mjg59 | Keybuk: So I'd guess (to be on the safe side) just transform them all | 09:20 |
| Keybuk | there's two forms, if cardvendor/carddevice are 0xffff then the real id is on the right hand side | 09:21 |
| Keybuk | (that's for stuff from pnp_table) | 09:21 |
| mjg59 | Yeah | 09:21 |
| Keybuk | for stuff from pnp_card_table there's just lots of pairs | 09:21 |
| mjg59 | Ok. It's because cardvendor/cardid defines a specific *card*, and the other IDs define functions on that card | 09:21 |
| mjg59 | If there's only one function, the cardvendor/cardid define that uniquely | 09:22 |
| Keybuk | ok, so parse them all? | 09:22 |
| Keybuk | in which case we get http://people.ubuntu.com/~scott/isapnp.auto | 09:22 |
| mjg59 | Yeah, that looks reasonable | 09:22 |
| Keybuk | alias pnp:dtBA03b0 sb ... looks a bit odd ? | 09:23 |
| mjg59 | CTL is certainly Creative Labs | 09:23 |
| mjg59 | Hmm. Some of those are wrong, yeah | 09:23 |
| mjg59 | The first three have to be alphabetical | 09:23 |
| Keybuk | I've seen the @@ things before in modules.alias | 09:24 |
| Keybuk | alias pnp:ctBA03b0dPNPb003* sb | 09:24 |

| Keybuk | alias pnp:cALS0007d@@@0001d@X@0001d@H@0001* sb | 09:25 |

| mjg59 | Keybuk: Yeah, they do seem right. How weird. | 09:25 |
| Keybuk | probably deliberately busticated | 09:25 |
| mjg59 | They're declared that way in the code | 09:25 |

| daniels | yo sebarino | 09:29 |
| Treenaks | Keybuk: ? | 09:30 |
| mjg59 | Keybuk: What's weird is that the ne driver has PNP IDs in it, but doesn't get them generated into the alias list | 09:30 |
| Keybuk | Treenaks: you have one of those crazy soundcards, right? | 09:30 |
| Treenaks | Keybuk: yes | 09:30 |
| Keybuk | Treenaks: want to try dropping that isapnp.auto into /etc/modprobe.d and seeing whether good things happen? | 09:30 |
| Treenaks | Keybuk: and a weird irda adapter too | 09:30 |
| mjg59 | irda is more awkward | 09:30 |
| Keybuk | you can probably just rmmod the sound card and sudo /etc/hotplug/isapnp.rc start | 09:30 |
| mjg59 | Most of the drivers aren't PNP aware | 09:31 |
| mjg59 | I should tidy that up some time | 09:31 |
| Treenaks | Keybuk: I don't have it here atm, I'll get it from my parents this afternoon | 09:31 |
| Keybuk | ah ok | 09:31 |
| Keybuk | mjg59: there's a lot of duplicates in that file ... a few things declare love for CSC0010 for example | 09:31 |
| mjg59 | Keybuk: That's probably a joystick port or something... | 09:32 |
| Keybuk | heh | 09:32 |
| mjg59 | Oh, no, it's a control port | 09:33 |
| Keybuk | so having one will mean you get three different sound-card drivers loaded? | 09:33 |
| mjg59 | Keybuk: I think that probably means that we should just be using the left hand column unless it's 0xffff, in which case it should be the right-hand column | 09:33 |
| Keybuk | yeah | 09:33 |
| Keybuk | that's what I'm thinking | 09:33 |
| Keybuk | so that means Treenaks will get cs4232 because of his CSC0000 id | 09:35 |
| Keybuk | which is blacklisted | 09:36 |
| Keybuk | because the snd-cs4232 doesn't declare that | 09:36 |
| mjg59 | snd-cs4236? | 09:36 |

| Keybuk | this all seems a mess <g> | 09:37 |
| Treenaks | the card needs snd-cs4231 | 09:37 |
| Treenaks | (see #4787) | 09:38 |
| Keybuk | Treenaks: that driver doesn't declare *any* ids | 09:38 |

| Treenaks | Keybuk: I'll try them all :) | 09:39 |

| pitti | please mail to martin.pitt@ubuntu.com or just /msg it to me | 02:33 |
| Diziet | pitti: ffox> How odd. Obviously my machine doesn't do that. | 02:34 |
| pitti | Diziet: is this path supposed to be the correct one? | 02:34 |
| mdke | pitti, awesome, also maybe you can mail it to ubuntu-translators@lists? | 02:34 |
| Diziet | No, I tell a lie, it does. | 02:35 |
| pitti | Diziet: i. e. did jdub break the last artwork package or did the path change? | 02:35 |
| mdke | pitti, or I can | 02:35 |
| Diziet | The path in ffox didn't change. Or at least, I didn't intend it to. | 02:35 |
| Diziet | And obviously I'm pretty sure of that since it worked fine with my test build of ffox ubuntu18. | 02:35 |
| pitti | $ dpkg -L ubuntu-artwork|grep html | 02:35 |
| pitti | $ | 02:35 |
| mdke | Diziet, jbailey will explain, essentially the file is moving package | 02:35 |

| Diziet | mdke: So why isn't it present ? | 02:35 |
| mdke | Diziet, i don't know I am afraid | 02:36 |

| segfault | is there anything that needs to be translated? | 02:40 |
| mdke | pitti, done, you in cc | 02:40 |
| Diziet | That bug is against firefox and assigned to jbailey. Does that mean he's planning to upload a firefox with a different start URL ? | 02:43 |
| mdke | Diziet, not sure, but that was what I'd assumed | 02:43 |
| Diziet | jbailey: ping | 02:44 |
| pitti | Diziet: why should the file be moved in the first place? u-a seems about right? | 02:44 |
| === Seveas [n=seveas@ksl403-uva-132.wireless.uva.nl] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Diziet | And why would the file need to move in the filesystem just because the package has changed ? | 02:44 |
| mdke | the reason was that the file is also in ubuntu-docs already, and is updated there | 02:44 |
| mdke | Diziet, perhaps the sane solution is to put the file back in the same place, in the new package | 02:44 |
| Diziet | Oh, well, clearly it ought to be in only one package. | 02:44 |
| pitti | mvo: in update-notifier, will "Description-pt_BR work" or just -pt"? | 02:44 |
| mdke | Diziet, the move has also caused issues for ogra i think, from what he said yesterday | 02:45 |
| jbailey | Diziet: pong | 02:45 |
| Diziet | Hello. See scrool re firefox start page and 3985. | 02:45 |
| jbailey | Diziet: I can upload a fixed FF and Ephy easily enough. | 02:46 |
| jbailey | Can someone tell me what it should point to? =) | 02:46 |
| mdke | jbailey, it should point to an html version of the about-ubuntu document | 02:47 |
| Diziet | No, no, I'm not asking you to do an upload. I'm just (at the moment) trying to figure out what's going on. | 02:47 |
| Diziet | I can upload easily enough. I'm just trying to have some coordination. | 02:47 |
| Diziet | Do you have any idea what's going on ? | 02:47 |
| jbailey | Diziet: Lovely. I'd rather not have the "touched it last" tag on FF. =) | 02:47 |
| Diziet | :-) | 02:47 |
| Nafallo | hehe | 02:48 |
| jbailey | Diziet: Only that it's lived in -artwork for a long time, and apparently stopped yesterday. | 02:48 |
| === Robinho_Peixoto [n=ubuntu@200.128.80.250] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Diziet | The proximate symptom is that current breezy's ffox gives a file doese not exist dialogue box. | 02:48 |
| jbailey | Lovely. | 02:48 |
| jbailey | Lemme see if I can quickly cobble together the HTML page. | 02:48 |
| Diziet | Um, if the file has just moved package, I don't understand why it needs to change name. | 02:49 |
| fabbione | Diziet: did you notice by any chance that mozilla and firefox are crashorama on amd64? | 02:49 |
| Nafallo | jbailey: btw, I runned update-alternatives --auto usplash-artwork.so and it changed instantly. is that something we should run somewhere in the postinst? :-) | 02:49 |
| jbailey | Well, the first file wass in /usr/share/doc/ubuntu-artwork. =) | 02:49 |
| === tvo [n=tobi@5354EA9B.cable.casema.nl] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Diziet | fabb: No, I have no idea about that. | 02:49 |
| Nafallo | fabbione: are they? | 02:49 |
| jbailey | Nafallo: No, because it should've been auto in the first place. I thnk you stumbled on a bug from the 6 hours it pointed to the wrong place. | 02:50 |
| fabbione | Nafallo: yes.. | 02:50 |
| Diziet | When did this start happening, and what do you do to trigger it ? | 02:50 |
| fabbione | Diziet: ok | 02:50 |
| fabbione | Diziet: i can't say when it started.. the syntom has always been there since i bought the amd64 | 02:50 |
| Diziet | OK ? Doesn't sound OK to me :-). | 02:50 |
| Nafallo | jbailey: seems like it ;-). | 02:50 |
| Diziet | I see,. | 02:50 |
| fabbione | Diziet: it's enough to hit the reload button sometimes.. | 02:51 |
| fabbione | if i use shift and do it slowly it's ok | 02:51 |
| Diziet | Are you sure this machine is OK ? | 02:51 |
| fabbione | most of the time just crashes | 02:51 |
| infinity | jbailey : Yeah, it went manual on mine too, which generally points ast a serious fuckup in how maintainer scripts are calling update-alternatives. | 02:51 |
| fabbione | Diziet: yes | 02:51 |
| fabbione | Diziet: everything else works fine | 02:51 |
| Diziet | Ha ha. | 02:51 |
| Diziet | Umm, I've not heard any other reports. | 02:51 |
| Nafallo | infinity: yay! I'm not alone! :-) | 02:51 |
| infinity | jbailey : If all is well now, we can't really do much except declare it a casualty of tracking breezy daily, I guess. | 02:51 |
| Diziet | Anyone else here with an amd64 ? | 02:51 |
| jbailey | infinity: Right. I made a thinko and put the wrong path in. | 02:51 |
| jbailey | infinity: I had put a bit in the postinst that would fix it if it ddn't flip to manual | 02:52 |
| jbailey | (remove the bad one, put in the good one) | 02:52 |
| jbailey | But for some readon u-a sets it to manual if it's a bad path. | 02:52 |
| Nafallo | Diziet: yes, and I don't have those symptoms :-). | 02:52 |
| jbailey | Stupid. | 02:52 |
| Diziet | inf: Right. Perhaps a mail to ubuntu-devel saying `if this happened to you, we know about it, here is how to make it right, users won't see it'. | 02:52 |
| infinity | jbailey : Try remove the bad, check where it currently points, if still bad, flip back to auto. | 02:52 |
| Diziet | naf: Thanks. | 02:52 |
| jbailey | infinity: I think probably not worth touching at this point, but I know that now. | 02:53 |
| Diziet | fabb: Firefox is, ahm, unusually large. So it might well crash more readily on bad hardware. | 02:53 |
| infinity | jbailey : s/bad/known bad/ | 02:53 |
| jbailey | And consider it to probably be an 'important' bug on u-a | 02:53 |
| infinity | It's been how u-a has behaved for eons. | 02:53 |
| jbailey | Sure, doesn't mean it's right. | 02:53 |
| jbailey | It makes it a situation where I might override a users chosen settings by forcing to auto. | 02:53 |
| Diziet | This reminds me of some bug in the Debian BTS about u-a reverting. | 02:54 |
| jbailey | Probably. | 02:54 |
| infinity | Well, it's not likely the user would chose to a) point at the same broken path you used, and b) point at it if it's a dangling link (two easy things to test for) | 02:54 |
| jbailey | I'm pretty certain that all paths lead to policy violation there. | 02:54 |
| Nafallo | jbailey: I would have blamed the kernel if it had not worked after next upgrade ;-) | 02:54 |
| mdke | jbailey, any more help needed on about-ubuntu, cos otherwise I am gonna get back to work | 02:55 |
| jbailey | Nafallo: Sure, most poeple don't realise the splash is separate. | 02:55 |
| jbailey | mdke: I don't think so, thanks. | 02:55 |
| mdke | jbailey, great, thanks | 02:55 |
| Nafallo | jbailey: well, I would have blamed it cause of the dpkg-reconfigure bailing out with cpio-errors ;-). | 02:55 |
| jbailey | Nafallo: Eh, did you see cpio errors? | 02:55 |
| Nafallo | jbailey: ehm, IIRC yes. I'll check the private log from yesterday :-). | 02:56 |
| jbailey | Nafallo: Doesn't matter now, it's fixed. | 02:56 |
| jbailey | I just don't remember anyone mentioning that to me. =) | 02:56 |
| jbailey | Diziet: Are trnaslations useful to you, or should it just always be in English for now? | 02:57 |
| jbailey | I don't remember if FF/ephy will hunt for a .LANG.html in a directory | 02:57 |
| infinity | jbailey : Anyhow, yes, as a casualty of breezy tracking, you should probably mail -devel with a "if usplash artwork doesn't work, and update-alternatives --display upsplash-artwork.so says it's manual, then 'update-alternatives --auto usplash-artwork.so && dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-`uname -r`', have a nice day." | 02:57 |
| Nafallo | "cpio: ./usr/lib/usplash/usplash-artwork.so: File or directory doesn't exist" | 02:57 |
| pitti | Nafallo: right, same here | 02:58 |
| Diziet | 308838, 285686, 87677 | 02:58 |
| jbailey | infinity: Right, there's one related bug where the postinst hasn't run the alternative yet that I need to fix first. | 02:58 |
| jbailey | infinity: So I wonder if I should just look at it in the postinst. | 02:58 |
| Nafallo | pitti: hehe. you don't have usplash anymore now :-) | 02:58 |
| infinity | jbailey : Easy enough to do. | 02:58 |
| jbailey | Just test it with readlink? | 02:59 |
| Diziet | jbailey: Translations of what ? Like error messages ? Depends on the language, but I can probably cope with error messages in at least many languages with Latin script. | 02:59 |
| jbailey | Hmm, readlink, -e the destination. Is there a sane way to check for manual or auto? | 02:59 |
| Diziet | Or do you mean translations of the start page ? | 02:59 |
| jbailey | Diziet: Of the about ubuntu page. | 02:59 |
| Diziet | Um, you know, I hadn't thought about that at all. | 03:00 |
| Diziet | But obviously they should be translated and we should use the right one. | 03:00 |
| Diziet | I have no idea what it does if you install non-English. | 03:00 |
| infinity | jbailey : --display tells you if it's auto or manual. | 03:00 |
| Diziet | I should do a non-English install to dsee what it's like. | 03:00 |
| jbailey | Diziet: So far it hasn't flipped to French for me. | 03:00 |
| Diziet | But you agree that it shoudl ? | 03:01 |
| jbailey | Diziet: Right, so I have to parse the first line. suck. | 03:01 |
| jbailey | infinity: ^^ | 03:01 |
| Diziet | Parse the first line ? | 03:01 |
| jbailey | I wonder if I care? If it's pointing to /usr/share, and it doesn't exist. | 03:01 |
| jbailey | .. | 03:01 |
| Diziet | I think I'll install a Dutch version of hoary and see what it looks like. | 03:02 |
| jbailey | Diziet: I agree that it should. I also think that since it never has before, it's a bit late to worry about it for Breezy. | 03:02 |
| Diziet | Is it ? It's probably not very hard to make the start URL depend on language somehow. | 03:02 |
| jbailey | Your call. We have other bugs to chase too, and by any sane measurement all of the text-related freezes have now passed. | 03:02 |
| Diziet | I had no idea that it didn't work. | 03:03 |
| Diziet | Don't you think it's very shoddy to have that page only in English ? | 03:03 |
| janimo | ogra, who/what starts xscreensaver? | 03:03 |
| jbailey | 'k, I have the HTML now. I just need to figure out how to turn <img src="../../images/C/UbuntuLogo.png" /> into a better path | 03:03 |
| === jbailey wiggles at the thought of doing XSLT | ||
| jbailey | Diziet: Oh sure. Most things that show up on my desktop in English remind me how far we have to go. | 03:03 |
| Diziet | `You have the HTML'. I'm getting worried here. | 03:03 |
| infinity | jbailey : Define "better".... | 03:04 |
| jbailey | Diziet: mdke said that the page should point to an HTML version of 'About Ubuntu' from the docteam. | 03:04 |
| Diziet | I thought this HTML was already in some package or other. ubuntu-doc, or something. | 03:04 |
| Diziet | So the docteam have it in HTML already ? | 03:04 |
| Diziet | Or it has to be converted ? | 03:04 |
| jbailey | infinity: One where you can expect to find the image. Probably an absolutely path to an images directory. | 03:04 |
| jbailey | Diziet: Dude, it's docbook. =) | 03:04 |
| Diziet | Ahhh. | 03:05 |
| infinity | jbailey : But if that relative path is correct when docbook generates it, what are you doing to make it incorrect?... Moving files around willy-nilly? | 03:05 |
| jbailey | If you want it in texinfo, I can twist a knob.. =) | 03:05 |
| Diziet | So you're making ubuntu-doc spit out HTML ? | 03:05 |
| jbailey | infinity: The layout in the repository does not match the final installed layout right now. | 03:05 |
| Diziet | Obviously it should be HTML for ff :-). | 03:05 |
| jbailey | infinity: It's the same problem as the entity problem you whined about earlier. | 03:05 |
| jbailey | Diziet: Bah! We want inline PDFs! | 03:05 |
| Diziet | :-P | 03:05 |

| Diziet | Right. I was hoping you'd say that. | 03:14 |
| Diziet | I'm checking it now. | 03:14 |
| Diziet | Standard rules for locale resolution apply, I hope. | 03:15 |
| infinity | If it does, that's news to me. That sort of negotiation is generally done by webservers, didn't think firefox would emulate an http server when using file:/// URLs. | 03:15 |
| Diziet | The default preferences are done by piece of javascript, which AIUI is run when it creates a new profile. | 03:15 |
| Nafallo | I agree with infinity. why is that option in apache if ff could do it? | 03:16 |
| jbailey | Nafallo: Because it would mean an extra round trip over the wire. | 03:16 |
| jbailey | I'd expect it to only do it on file:/// URI | 03:16 |

| Kamion | Diziet: fixed in breezy, though I can't remember the bug number right now | 03:20 |
| Kamion | was a translation handling problem somewhere in the hideous base-config/debconf/cdebconf stack that's involved there | 03:21 |
| Diziet | Sure. I'm starting with hoary because I want to check a few things with the ffox upgrade. | 03:21 |
| Kamion | right, just letting you know in case you were going to file a bug :-) | 03:21 |
| Diziet | :-) | 03:21 |
| jbailey | Kamion: 'kay, thanks. I'll do that then and make sure it's solved. | 03:22 |
| mdz | jbailey: what do we lose if we revert that whole mess? | 03:22 |
| jbailey | Oo, reminds to check. My dad said that the installer from a week or so ago gave him grief when he selected UTC for a server. | 03:22 |
| jbailey | mdz: The artwork page for Firefox? Nothing. If we'd rather have the HTML version of about-ubuntu, we can drop it in place int he ubuntu-artwork package anyway. | 03:23 |

| jbailey | mdz: Sorry, two threads at once, hard to track which I'm on at the moment. | 03:24 |
| Diziet | The init.d script startup messages aren't translated, are they ? | 03:24 |
| mdz | Diziet: not | 03:24 |
| mdz | at all | 03:24 |
| Diziet | Maybe for dapper. It shouldn't be too hard. | 03:25 |
| jbailey | mdz: The alternative can be reverted, we lose usplash brnading for kubuntu and edubuntu. | 03:25 |
| Kamion | mdz: btw, I thought the non-langpack translation deadline was for translations to arrive in Rosetta, not for uploads, which is why the corresponding installer uploads haven't arrived yet; it takes me some hours of clicking on stuff in Rosetta, waiting for mails, and downloading tarballs by hand to merge installer translations from Rosetta | 03:25 |
| mdz | jbailey: http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=16676 | 03:25 |
| mdz | Kamion: waiting for mails?! | 03:25 |
| jbailey | mdz: Yeah, race condition between kernel install and the postinst running in usplash to put the file in the right place. | 03:26 |
| Kamion | mdz: uh-huh. have you downloaded translations from Rosetta lately? | 03:26 |

| Diziet | mdz: Also, your message about artwork freeze. How does that relate to the Firefox fonts issue ? (Which I will look at a proper fix for later today hopefully, but I think we'll have to go with the `just furtle the aliases' plan.) | 03:26 |
| mdz | Kamion: but involving email in that process sounds unreasonable to me | 03:26 |
| jbailey | mdz: 'k, I'll pull that outo then. I wanted the artwork flexible enough and had been testing it here for a while. | 03:26 |
| mdz | Diziet: grey area. please get the changes in ASAP | 03:27 |
| Kamion | mdz: apparently the old useful po-export functionality hung the launchpad appservers for ages while it processed them, so now you have to send an asynchronous request and it e-mails you with a librarian URL when it's done. | 03:27 |

| pitti | ogra: phppgadmin IIRC | 03:28 |
| pitti | ogra: yep | 03:28 |
| === Kamion goes back to #13250 | ||
| pitti | ogra: I never saw it, though | 03:28 |
| mdz | jbailey: why does replacing the artwork require a new .so and alternative? the existing artwork branding worked by swapping one package for another | 03:29 |
| Diziet | (phppgadmin ? Is that what it sounds like ? A really bad idea, and a strange gargling noise ?) | 03:29 |
| ogra | pitti, me neither... but it seems there is a demand for gui admin tools... do we have any other ? | 03:29 |
| Nafallo | pitti, ogra: I've used it a bit. it's like mysql with the added complexity of postgresql :-) | 03:29 |
| janimo | jbayiley can't the splash be a simple image file? | 03:29 |
| jbailey | mdz: The .so is just a compiled version of the pngtobogl output. It has no xpm loader, and putting all the png loader stuff in the binary is a bit heavy for early userspace. | 03:29 |
| pitti | ogra: pgadmin3 is a really nice one | 03:29 |
| jbailey | mdz: So /sbin/usplash has the artwork built into it. | 03:30 |
| pitti | ogra: depends on whether you want a web-based or local application | 03:30 |

| === jbailey turns on heat, it's too cold to type in here. | ||
| mdz | not libpng, certainly | 03:32 |
| jbailey | Ugh, 12 degrees, that would be why. | 03:32 |
| sladen | IIRC, libpng only wants zlib | 03:32 |
| Diziet | Even so, if it has to be a .so, why can't it be just a different .so in the different packages ? | 03:32 |
| === jbailey checks why pngtobogl also depends on gd and freetype | ||
| jbailey | Diziet: It can be, but something has to provide the default. | 03:32 |
| jbailey | Diziet: That's why it's an alternative. | 03:32 |
| sladen | jbailey: probably for drawing and annotations | 03:33 |
| Diziet | I don't understand. Why can't it be a different .so with the same name in different packages, which conflict with each other ? | 03:33 |
| Diziet | No need for an alternative. | 03:33 |
| Diziet | You get the one you have installed and if you have none installed you get no usplash or it crashes or something. | 03:33 |
| jbailey | Diziet: edubuntu-artowkr and ubuntu-artwork don't conflict. | 03:33 |
| jbailey | One depends on the other. | 03:33 |
| Kamion | ped_geometry_set_start (geom=0x804a8b0, start=The value of variable 'start' is distributed across several | 03:34 |
| Kamion | locations, and GDB cannot access its value. | 03:34 |
| Diziet | So make a new udeb ? | 03:34 |
| Kamion | er, go gdb | 03:34 |
| jbailey | Diziet: it's not an installer bit, it's runtime. | 03:34 |
| Diziet | Or a new .deb ? | 03:34 |
| jbailey | png = gdImageCreateFromPng (pngfile); | 03:34 |
| Diziet | This doesn't seem like rocket science to me. | 03:34 |
| ogra | Diziet, edubuntu-artwork reuses lots of ubuntu-artwork... it would duplicate the package contents ... | 03:34 |
| Diziet | ubuntu-artwork-base. | 03:34 |
| jbailey | Ah, and libgd.so.2 wants freetype png12, jpeg and pthread. Joy. | 03:35 |
| Diziet | Or you could have the executable rpath an extra directory where the foobuntu version lives, so the dynamic linker does it for you. | 03:35 |
| Diziet | Then fooubuntu-artwork would conflict with barubuntu-artwork and you could leave ubuntu-artwork as is. | 03:35 |
| sladen | jbailey: oh jeeze. Just write an XPM loader. Steal it from isolinux/grub/whatever. It'll be about 20 lines | 03:36 |
| jbailey | Diziet: This doesn't *Actually* sound easier... | 03:36 |
| Diziet | Doesn't it ? Compared to racing around with alternatives at runtime ? | 03:36 |
| Diziet | rpath is hardly difficult. | 03:36 |
| === kobold [n=kobold@debian/developer/kobold] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| sladen | jbailey: or a PCX loader which isn't much bigger | 03:36 |
| jbailey | You still have the same problem that the artwork has to be in and working before the kernel installs. | 03:36 |
| Diziet | Come to think of it, are you dlopening it or doing it at executable startup ? | 03:37 |
| jbailey | Diziet: At least in this case, you can guarantee a sane startup. | 03:37 |
| jbailey | dlopen | 03:37 |
| jbailey | The idea was originally to make it so it could take a path. | 03:37 |
| Diziet | So you could try dlopen(whateverubuntu) and if that fails dlopen(ubuntu-artwork). | 03:37 |
| Diziet | No need for rpath or alternatives. | 03:37 |
| Kamion | I don't think we can encode the names of all possible Ubuntu derivatives into usplash! | 03:38 |
| Diziet | Just make the whateverubuntu-artwork packages put the file in a fixed overriding location. | 03:38 |
| Diziet | k: No, you misunderstand. | 03:38 |
| Kamion | oh, fixed override, sure | 03:38 |
| Kamion | though then kubuntu-artwork-usplash and edubuntu-artwork-usplash would have to conflict - but that's not *so* bad | 03:38 |
| jbailey | Diziet: Keep in mind that a company IT admin might want to add their own branding to this. | 03:38 |
| jbailey | Diziet: So it has to be 3 layers. | 03:38 |
| jbailey | (Isn't this the problem that alternatives were *designed* to solve?) | 03:39 |
| Diziet | jb: So they can edit the edubuntu-artwork package locally. | 03:39 |
| jbailey | No, why should they have to? | 03:39 |
| === OculusAquilae [n=bastian@p548D0598.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| jbailey | They should be able to load a localised branding package on top. | 03:39 |
| jbailey | IF they edit packages, they lose upgrade ability. | 03:39 |
| Diziet | No, alternatives are for if you want to have multiple things installed at once and have a name the refers to the sysadmin's local default. | 03:39 |
| Diziet | It makes no sense to have multiple usplash screens at once, since only one will ever be used. | 03:39 |
| jbailey | Which you do in this case. Default, Distro branding, local branding. | 03:39 |
| Diziet | You don't have boot arguments saying what branding to have today. | 03:40 |
| Diziet | If you think that's important have a list and call dlopen on each one. This is about 5 lines of code and no fighting with complex configuration management. | 03:40 |
| sladen | Diziet: that's always a possibility :) | 03:40 |
| Kamion | sladen: with respect, no it's not | 03:41 |
| Kamion | I'm not going to hack that sort of horribleness into the installer | 03:41 |
| Kamion | (boot args) | 03:41 |
| jbailey | Well, more to the point, I don't see what problem it solves. | 03:41 |
| infinity | jbailey : Local branding can be done with dpkg-divert. | 03:41 |
| jbailey | infinity: All of the gnome branding works by just dropping files in place that are preferred over the regular ones. | 03:42 |
| infinity | /etc/usplash/override-splash.so | 03:42 |
| jbailey | Yeah. | 03:42 |
| infinity | (not like it's easy to override until that .so becomes a .png anyway) | 03:42 |
| jbailey | (ew... You suggested a sofile in /etc) | 03:43 |

| apokryphos | \sh_away: that SUSE userlist theme, btw: giannaros.org/SUSE | 03:43 |
| infinity | jbailey : Hey's it's only an .so in name. I look at it as a PNG with a stub. :) | 03:43 |
| Diziet | This is very odd. This hoary install didn't set up sudo for some reason. | 03:43 |
| jbailey | infinity: Oh, it's really not. pngtobogl converts into an array of numbers. Basically, you're loading in a struct with the image in it. | 03:44 |
| jbailey | Diziet: No root for you! | 03:44 |
| sladen | Diziet: is it %admin vs. explicit users in /etc/sudoers? | 03:44 |
| infinity | sladen : Hard to tell without root to look at /etc/sudoers. ;) | 03:45 |
| Diziet | It's a 100% fresh install. I haven't touched anything. Maybe I didn't read one of the install questions closely enough but I don't remember there being one about that. | 03:45 |
| tseng | is usplash broken universally, or just me? | 03:45 |
| Diziet | It set a root password instead. | 03:45 |

| jbailey | tseng: Depends in which way it's broken. There are some ways that are known, and others that are specific. | 03:46 |
| infinity | tseng : Dexribe your brand of breakage. | 03:46 |
| tseng | jbailey: it seems to change vt | 03:46 |
| infinity | Describe, too. | 03:46 |
| Diziet | inf: No. | 03:46 |
| sladen | Diziet: reboot and select (recovery mode) | 03:46 |
| tseng | jbailey: then go blank for a bit, then show normal lsb init type stuff | 03:46 |
| jbailey | Mm, that's a new one for me. | 03:46 |
| jbailey | I think. It was up for a little bit, right? | 03:47 |
| tseng | it was working until yesterday | 03:47 |
| Diziet | Oh well, I don't really want to debug hoary now. The display is crap too - it clearly has no idea how to drive this graphics card. | 03:47 |
| infinity | tseng : When was the last time you upgraded, and when's the last time you regenerated your initramfs? | 03:47 |
| tseng | infinity: regenerated after 0.1-17 | 03:47 |
| infinity | tseng : Much goofiness with VT switching and tty* device creation has been going on in the last few uploads. | 03:47 |
| jbailey | There's a -17? | 03:47 |

| jbailey | mvo: I don't, sorry. I've never looked into how the whole console font thing works at all. | 03:52 |
| Kamion | Diziet: the timezone error probably caused the debconf priority in the installer to be dropped so that you ended up in expert mode, and then you were asked for a root password, which makes the installer decide you probably didn't want to have sudo configured. #9832 coupled with the same kind of thing as #7694. | 03:52 |
| Diziet | Oh, yes, the installer did stop being wizard-like. | 03:52 |
| mvo | jbailey: thanks. I'll dig into it (sigh) | 03:52 |
| Diziet | That's what you mean by expert mode. | 03:52 |
| Diziet | It makes sense now. | 03:52 |
| Kamion | Yes, I think that's probably a bug but one has to be a little careful when fixing it because the debconf-priority-dropping is critical to avoiding infinite loops in some cases. | 03:53 |

| Diziet | Well, I don't hang around in -doc. | 04:09 |
| Diziet | Ah, jdub, hello ! | 04:09 |
| ogra | me neither | 04:09 |
| jdub | mdke: yeah | 04:10 |
| jbailey | But there's fun and excitement in there! | 04:10 |
| jbailey | All the cool kids are doing it... | 04:10 |
| Diziet | jdub: So can you explain what was done and why ? | 04:10 |
| jdub | Diziet: the about ubuntu html is no longer shipped in ubuntu-artwork, it's built and shipped as part of ubuntu-docs | 04:10 |
| Diziet | And why no-one mailed ubuntu-devel with a quick not to tell us what to expect :-). | 04:10 |
| pitti | jdub: the last u-artwork package seems to make Breezy fall apart into pieces | 04:10 |
| Diziet | jdub: By `is' you mean `will be'. | 04:10 |
| pitti | jdub: the usplash artwork is missing as well | 04:10 |
| infinity | jbailey / mvo : Either of you doing a usplash update in the next while? | 04:11 |
| Diziet | Since it's not currently on anyone's system. | 04:11 |
| jdub | Diziet: it is done that way because there's no point maintaining it in two places, and it's owned by the doc team | 04:11 |
| Treenaks | hm, EKEYBUK | 04:11 |
| jbailey | infinity: I need to. | 04:11 |
| ogra | pitti, not here | 04:11 |
| Diziet | Certainly I don't mind which package it's in. | 04:11 |
| jbailey | infinity: It's just not obvious to me what update to make atm. | 04:11 |
| jdub | pitti: ubuntu-artwork has never owned the usplash artwork, so if jbailey's depending on me to put it in, then i need to know about it ;-) | 04:11 |
| pitti | jdub: oh, ok | 04:11 |
| infinity | jbailey : Can I get you to patch mvo's chvt magic a bit, to get rid of one icky case of text flicker? | 04:11 |
| Diziet | jdub: Well, wasn't it in a previous version of ubuntu-artwork ? | 04:11 |
| jdub | pitti: i was of the understanding that usplash had the ubuntu artwork in it by default | 04:12 |
| jdub | Diziet: yes | 04:12 |
| Diziet | So you just deleted it. | 04:12 |
| ogra | pitti, reconfigure your linux-image ;) | 04:12 |
| jdub | Diziet: if you mean the about ubuntu html | 04:12 |
| jdub | Diziet: yes | 04:12 |
| jbailey | infinity: Sure, mind sending it by email? This channel is a bit fast paced at the moment to track TODOs here. | 04:12 |
| pitti | ogra: that didn't help | 04:12 |
| ogra | oh | 04:12 |
| ogra | helped here | 04:12 |
| jbailey | pitti: Eh? usplash contains the default ubuntu artwork. | 04:12 |
| Diziet | I see. Did it occur to you that something might be using it ? | 04:12 |
| pitti | jbailey: ah, I had to call update-alternatives for the artwork file | 04:12 |
| jdub | Diziet: i knew very well that it was the default homepage, that was its entire purpose in life | 04:12 |
| pitti | jbailey: one of the recent updates broke the alternatives link | 04:13 |
| pitti | jbailey: (I wasn't the only one) | 04:13 |
| Diziet | Right. So you deleted the default homepage. How were you expecting the default homepage to still be provided ? | 04:13 |
| jbailey | pitti: The usual problem is that the kernel installed before the update-alternatives ran in the the usplash postinst. | 04:13 |
| jdub | Diziet: by ubuntu-docs | 04:13 |
| jbailey | pitti: Did you still have to run it yourself after? | 04:13 |
| pitti | jbailey: I see | 04:13 |
| Diziet | So of course you edited ubuntu-docs to make it provide it ? | 04:13 |
| pitti | jbailey: yes, I had; without running it, reconfiguring the linux image didn't help at all | 04:13 |
| jdub | Diziet: no - jbailey maintains ubuntu-docs | 04:13 |
| jbailey | Diziet: Objection leading the witness, when he clearly did not. =) | 04:14 |
| jbailey | pitti: Argh. | 04:14 |
| Diziet | So you just decided you'd break it, not tell anyone, and leave the rest of us to figure it out ? | 04:14 |
| Diziet | Can you tell yet that I'm annoyed ? | 04:14 |
| seb128 | slomo: ? | 04:14 |
| jbailey | pitti: Do you still have a system in that state? I'd love to know why the usplash postinst didn't do it? | 04:14 |
| jdub | i'm not sure your 50 questions method is really very useful when the answers are pretty obvious, and we can just get on with our lives and fix things | 04:14 |
| pitti | jbailey: btw, is it really the right thing to manually reconfigure the linux image to update the ram disk? can't some postinst do this automatically? | 04:14 |
| Diziet | So another question: why does the filename have to change ? | 04:14 |
| pitti | jbailey: no, unfortunately I already updated-alternatives | 04:15 |
| infinity | mvo : What's your one outstanding bug with console setup? | 04:15 |
| infinity | mvo : I'm touching that area right now, so maybe it'll jump out at me. | 04:15 |
| === _mvo_ [n=egon@suprimo-158.ping.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| torkel | jbaily: shouldn't the eq in 'dpkg --compare-versions "$2" eq 0.1-12' in usplash.postinst be a ge? | 04:15 |
| Diziet | My point with the 50 questions is to try to suggest that there might be less, erm, confusing, ways of going about things. | 04:15 |
| jbailey | pitti: Ther'es an update-initramfs tool, but it requires that it was used to create the alternative in the first place. The kernel folks weren't comfortable with dropping it in after preview, so it's deferred until dapper. | 04:15 |
| ogra | Diziet, just more communication is enough | 04:15 |
| jdub | Diziet: perhaps saying, "hey, there are less confusing ways of doing things" would have been more effective communication | 04:16 |
| jbailey | pitti: For amusement you can call "update-alternatives -u -t". The -t is for "takeover" (as in, don't care that I didn't make t his). Just -u works after that. | 04:16 |
| jdub | regardless, we break and fix, it's not like it's a crisis | 04:16 |
| Diziet | Well, I didn't want to diss you until I'd heard your excuse. Anyway, I've made that point. | 04:16 |
| Diziet | Thank you. | 04:16 |
| Diziet | What about the filename ? | 04:16 |
| Diziet | I think the filename should not change. | 04:16 |
| pitti | jbailey: ok, so Dapper won't require us to manually build the ram disk any more? nice | 04:16 |
| ogra | Diziet, i was trapped several times by such things in this release cycle, i think we should have a BOF at UBZ to sort out such things in advance for dapper | 04:17 |
| jbailey | pitti: Right. =) | 04:17 |
| jbailey | pitti: And in fact, the idea is that tools that involve the initramfs can just do the updates themselves all they want and safely. | 04:17 |
| jdub | Diziet: that's up to jbailey - perhaps a symlink to the /u/s/doc location would make sense | 04:17 |
| jbailey | pitti: It does a sha1sum check to make sure the user didn't alter the file without the tool. | 04:17 |
| Diziet | jdub, jbailey: Are you both happy that ubuntu-docs can ship the file at its previous location ? | 04:17 |
| jbailey | Diziet: Sure. Am I shipping the old file, or the HTMLized about-ubuntu? | 04:18 |
| pitti | Diziet: this is almost a requirement, given that we can't change user profiles | 04:18 |
| jdub | jbailey: html-ised about ubunut | 04:18 |
| jdub | jbailey: a symlink would do it | 04:18 |
| ogra | jdub, there is a logo in the html file... | 04:19 |
| ogra | that needs to be placed properly then | 04:19 |
| jdub | ogra: hmm - if it's a directory symlink, that's no problem; if it's not a directory symlink, the logo would have to use a fully qualified path - that might be | 04:20 |
| ogra | yup | 04:20 |

| wasabi_ | Since you're in that space a lot. | 04:38 |

| wasabi_ | The idea is to mount / as a loopback file on another fs. My specific use case is for my embedded flash system. | 04:38 |
| wasabi_ | I want to be able to "flash" the system with a new image, and I want it to be as simple as on a Cisco or something. | 04:38 |
| wasabi_ | You just drop a new .bin file into a directory on the flash disk and reboot. | 04:38 |
| jbailey | wasabi_: Okay. Try hooking that in /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-top | 04:39 |
| wasabi_ | Also prevents the scattered writes that would be caused by upgrading it by extracting an entire file system. | 04:39 |
| wasabi_ | Which is hard on flash. | 04:39 |
| jbailey | Right. | 04:39 |
| jbailey | The trick is going to be that you'll need to somehow feed back an altered root variable. | 04:40 |
| seb128 | lamont-away: yeah, I'll do that now | 04:40 |
| wasabi_ | Yeah, I'm very unsure how that works. ;) | 04:40 |
| lamont-away | danke | 04:40 |
| jbailey | wasabi_: Well, right now it doesn't. You're in a subshell. | 04:40 |
| jbailey | I didn't want all of the variables from everyone's scripts messing things up. | 04:40 |
| wasabi_ | The pivot_root process is pretty unknown to me. | 04:40 |
| jbailey | wasabi_: So instead, maybe set root= to something like /dev/loop0 and just set that up? | 04:41 |
| jbailey | There's no pivot_root anymore. =) | 04:41 |
| pitti | jbailey: ah, sorry, the Kurdish locale was about installing belocs, not adding to libc locales | 04:41 |

| wasabi_ | Yeah. | 04:44 |
| jbailey | wasabi_: You can do that all without altering initramfs-tools in anyway. | 04:44 |
| wasabi_ | Yeah, just some additional local-top scripts | 04:44 |
| wasabi_ | what does local-top stand for anyways? | 04:44 |
| jbailey | And in fact if you're quick, clever, and beg ogra and dholbach, you might be able to do it for breezy. =) | 04:44 |
| pitti | jbailey: you mean like ship the locales itself into the langpacks? Highly interesting and flexible idea | 04:44 |
| wasabi_ | jbailey, it's not totally useful without ro file system support. | 04:45 |
| pitti | jbailey: although installing a locale should not require installing the langpack | 04:45 |
| jbailey | wasabi_: There are two layers of hooks. The init- series, which is always run for everyone. Then the local- and nfs- series which is run depending ont he mode you select. | 04:45 |
| wasabi_ | Hmm. Mode? | 04:45 |
| wasabi_ | How do you change modes? | 04:45 |
| jbailey | wasabi_: Change the BOOT= line in /etc/mkinitramfs/initramfs.conf | 04:46 |
| jbailey | wasabi_: But they're just sourced in scripts. You could write your own without altering the initramfs-tools package. | 04:46 |
| wasabi_ | oh interesting... never saw this file. | 04:46 |
| wasabi_ | Yeah agreed. | 04:46 |
| jbailey | wasabi_: So each of those then has hooks where you can just drop things and expect it to work. | 04:46 |
| wasabi_ | That's pretty neat. | 04:46 |

| Diziet | These translations are in langpacks, aren't they ? | 04:56 |
| pitti | doko: I tested ooo2 -> ooo1 with .odt: three fonts, various formatting, a picture; works flawless | 04:56 |
| Diziet | Anyone familiar with langpack stuff here ? | 04:56 |
| zyga | Diziet: pitti should be :) | 04:56 |
| pitti | Diziet: that's mine, mine, mine! | 04:56 |
| zyga | pitti: yourrr precioussss | 04:57 |
| zyga | ;] | 04:57 |
| Diziet | Right. So. The file /usr/share/ubuntu-artwork/home/index.html is going to be part of ubuntu-docs. | 04:57 |
| pitti | Diziet: there are no translations of the ffox start page ATM | 04:57 |
| jbailey | I was more thinking the seagulls from Finding Nemo. =) | 04:57 |
| Diziet | I have a scheme in mind for supporting translations. | 04:57 |
| jbailey | pitti: There are. =) | 04:57 |
| Diziet | It works like this: | 04:57 |
| Diziet | You put a translation of this file in the relevant langpack, called /usr/share/ubuntu-artwork/home/index-LOCALE.html | 04:57 |
| doko | pitti: I didn't do more on i386 as well. that should be sufficient. | 04:58 |
| pitti | Diziet: where do I get them from? | 04:58 |
| Diziet | Well, translators translate things, right ? | 04:58 |
| pitti | doko: ok, thanks; glad to get to know your extensive and sophisticated hard test suites :-) | 04:58 |
| jbailey | Diziet: They're in rosetta as ubuntu-docs package, pofile about-ubuntu | 04:59 |
| zyga | pitti: I'd love to contribute index-pl.html for you | 04:59 |
| Diziet | I don't understand how all that stuff works, but you must have ways of getting stuff from translators. | 04:59 |
| Diziet | Sorry, I don't mean they want to go into langpack-nl. | 04:59 |
| Diziet | They want to go into mozilla-firefox-locale-nl-nl | 04:59 |
| pitti | Diziet: we don't touch these automatically ATM | 04:59 |
| === Gman_ is now known as GmanZZZ | ||
| pitti | Diziet: for now, just putting them into ubuntu-artwork as well wouldn't be too wrong, would it? | 05:00 |
| Diziet | And the file /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/extensions/{83532d50-69a7-46d7-9873-ed232d5b246b}/chrome/nl-NL.jar (!) contains a member locale/browser-region/region.properties which should be changed too. | 05:00 |
| jbailey | Diziet: They can only really come from ubuntu-docs for now. | 05:00 |
| Diziet | Yes, unfortunately having firefox automatically find these files at runtime is quite hard. | 05:00 |
| jbailey | Diziet: All the stuff is stored in there, it's not langpack driven right now. | 05:00 |
| doko | pitti: dude! ;-) | 05:00 |
| wasabi_ | wonder what the best way to create/maintain this flash based image is. | 05:01 |
| wasabi_ | guess a chroot. | 05:01 |
| zyga | pitti: that can be a symlink right? | 05:01 |
| Diziet | The reason it has to go into the same package, mozilla-firefox-locale-nl-nl, is so that the correct start URL can always be provided. | 05:01 |
| Diziet | The start URL is in that package. | 05:01 |
| zyga | pitti: ah - no wait - it's per-user | 05:02 |
| Diziet | That is, if you run in the nl locale, you get the start page from that package instead of the one in firefox. | 05:02 |
| jbailey | Diziet: What about people who use multiple langpacks and locales on the system. | 05:02 |
| Diziet | That's OK. | 05:02 |
| Diziet | It'll work just right. | 05:02 |
| jbailey | My wife and I share a computer and don't use the same language. | 05:02 |
| pitti | Diziet: right, I know, but for now we manually have to update all the m-f-locale-* packages | 05:02 |
| Diziet | If the translated document lives together with the configuration in the right .jar in the right -locale- package. | 05:02 |
| pitti | Diziet: well, actually, luckily there is m-f-locale-all, so it's only one source package | 05:03 |
| pitti | Diziet: and there is already a script in debian/rules which updates the start page | 05:03 |
| Diziet | Which takes tarballs from rosetta, or something ? | 05:03 |
| pitti | Diziet: should be easy to adapt that to per-lang | 05:03 |
| pitti | Diziet: no, it's not connected to Rosetta right now - we plan that for Dapper | 05:03 |
| Diziet | Ah. | 05:03 |
| jbailey | Diziet: Does epiphany also inherit that same thing? | 05:03 |
| Diziet | Right. So the question remaining is, do we want to try to support this for breezy at all ? | 05:03 |
| Diziet | jb: I don't know. | 05:03 |
| Diziet | It may be that epiphany reads a different file. | 05:04 |
| Diziet | In which case firefox would see the right one and epiphany the English one. | 05:04 |
| Diziet | The main question I suppose is do we have the ability to get enough translations done, and incorporated, to make it worth faffing with the machinery in m-f-locale-all ? | 05:05 |
| Diziet | jb: Have you uploaded that new ubuntu-docs yet, BTW ? | 05:06 |
| jbailey | Diziet: I have 28 translations of about-ubuntu | 05:06 |
| pitti | mvo: ping | 05:06 |
| Diziet | And that's the file we're using for English ? | 05:06 |
| jbailey | Diziet: No, because I'm not clear that everyone has agreed on the right thing. | 05:06 |
| Diziet | OIC. | 05:07 |
| jbailey | Diziet: That's the file that jdub has asked me to use. | 05:07 |
| mvo | pitti: pong | 05:07 |
| Diziet | Right. Is that the one that sabdfl rewrote ? | 05:07 |
| janimo | jbailey, is usplash+pluggable artworks going ahead? | 05:07 |
| infinity | mvo : Debian #271013 | 05:07 |
| pitti | mvo: in the update notifications, will "Description-pt_BR" work? | 05:07 |
| jbailey | Diziet: Not that I see. | 05:07 |
| mvo | pitti: yes | 05:07 |
| infinity | mvo : That's the bug, and it's nothing new, apparently. | 05:07 |
| Diziet | jb: So we have a disagreement between jdub and sabdfl, or what ? | 05:07 |
| jbailey | janimo: I'm also not clear where that ended up. | 05:08 |
| infinity | mvo : init fires up the consoles AFTER it runs the init scripts, not before. | 05:08 |
| jbailey | Diziet: Where I think that it's left is that you were trying to figure out how to make FF find the translated files by default. | 05:08 |
| jbailey | Diziet: If you have a way, I'll upload all te translations. | 05:08 |
| wasabi_ | jbailey, how are kernel parameters accessed from these scripts? | 05:08 |
| jbailey | Diziet: If not, then I will upload English only. | 05:08 |
| wasabi_ | I notice the use of the ROOT env var | 05:08 |
| Diziet | Right. I know how to do that, but the translations have to be in the m-f-locale-all package. | 05:08 |
| wasabi_ | Are they all exported like that? | 05:08 |
| jbailey | wasabi_: Look at init-top/usplash | 05:09 |
| jbailey | Sorrry, scripts/init-top/usplash | 05:09 |
| mvo | infinity: gosh, 1y old? | 05:09 |
| jbailey | wasabi_: Only special ones are extracted for common use. You can fetch your own this same way. | 05:09 |
| pitti | fabbione: what is "Language pack reorganization" on Italic? | 05:09 |
| jdub | jbailey: the html output of the doc team's about ubuntu (which is what mark wrote) is what should be used | 05:09 |
| infinity | mvo : Well, the bug is older, that's just the first one filed. :) | 05:09 |
| Diziet | Because m-f-locale-all contains a file which specifies statically the start URL. | 05:09 |
| jbailey | wasabi_: If you're feeling extra sexy, please feel free to write a function to extract them in a pretty way. | 05:10 |
| infinity | mvo : It's always been like this, this isn't a regression. | 05:10 |
| infinity | mvo : It's just "the way it is". | 05:10 |
| Diziet | We can easily make m-f-locale-all generate the file right depending on whether there's a translation at build-time. | 05:10 |
| infinity | mvo : So, it's hardly a breezy blocker, though irritating. | 05:10 |
| Diziet | But it's much harder to make all this happen on the user's system at runtime. | 05:10 |
| jdub | Diziet: that'd be kinda cool, but if it's too hard, don't worry about it | 05:10 |
| wasabi_ | Ahh, proc command line. | 05:10 |
| jbailey | jdub: Ah, okay. I didn't know who wrote it. =) All I have is what's sitting int he breezy branch of the docteam's svn. =) | 05:10 |
| jdub | mdke: around? | 05:10 |
| wasabi_ | Might make sense to have them all exported as env vars by default, no? | 05:11 |
| jbailey | So there's just the upload all of the translations, or just the English question left. | 05:11 |
| jbailey | And then I'll send 'er off. | 05:11 |
| jbailey | (Well, I'll fix some other bugs on the way first, probably) | 05:11 |
| infinity | mvo : If we're willing to assume our users don't mess much with /etc/inittab, I can just do the console setup on vc1 through vc6, without first verifying that the consoles exist. It doesn't hurt anything, and when getty spawns, the console should be in UTF-8 mode. | 05:11 |

| Kamion | infinity: try http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/ucs/examples/UTF-8-demo.txt | 05:18 |
| Diziet | But we can't just have m-f-locale-all generate those URLs for every language because we'd have to keep them in synch. | 05:18 |
| infinity | I haven't the first clue how to type or tab-complete that... | 05:18 |
| Diziet | I mean, the list of translations. | 05:18 |
| Kamion | infinity: that's why there's a README.strange-name in the same directory :) | 05:18 |
| Diziet | Oh, just a mo, here's an idea: | 05:18 |
| pitti | seb128: but you know that I then will replace gnome with fvwm, OOo with latex, nautilus with mc, and X with a nice fb console? :-) | 05:18 |
| Diziet | This file (the index.html) is quite small. | 05:18 |
| jbailey | Diziet: Right, this might be unsolvable in this timeframe. | 05:18 |
| Diziet | And we could use symlinks. | 05:18 |
| Diziet | Here's my idea: | 05:18 |
| HiddenWolf | mvo, is xscreensaver your package? | 05:18 |
| infinity | Kamion : Ahh. ;) | 05:18 |
| pitti | seb128: talking to yourself? | 05:18 |
| jbailey | Diziet: FF could also do with some hacking to make it do language negotiation on file:/// URIs | 05:18 |
| Diziet | We make a complete list of all locales we've ever heard of. | 05:18 |
| seb128 | pitti: GetRideOfTheDesktop? :) | 05:18 |
| Diziet | jb: You must be joking. | 05:19 |
| seb128 | pitti: yeah, that's friday :p | 05:19 |
| pitti | seb128: exactly | 05:19 |
| Diziet | Then, we have the m-f-locale-all package always rewrite the homepage URL to include the locale, iff the locale is in that list. | 05:19 |
| Diziet | And we have the ubuntu-docs package provide _all_ of those files for every locale. | 05:19 |
| Diziet | If there is no translation, it provides a symlink to the English. | 05:19 |
| pitti | Diziet: see? breezy's design is hopelessly deprecated even before it is released :-) | 05:19 |
| wasabi_ | jbailey, what is the appropiate place in the initramfs to mount to device that holds the image? Is there a /mnt or what? | 05:20 |
| jbailey | wasabi_: ${root}, I think. =) | 05:20 |
| infinity | Hrm. Our default console faunt is pretty shit for UTF-8... | 05:20 |
| infinity | faunt? | 05:20 |
| infinity | font. | 05:20 |
| wasabi_ | ${root}? | 05:20 |
| Diziet | Since this design is ephemeral, for this `complete list' we could just take the list of translations that are currently available plus a few that look plausible, or something, and copy it about manually this once. | 05:20 |
| infinity | Wow, what happened there, I wonder. | 05:20 |
| mako | \sh_away: the $100 laptop isn | 05:20 |

| mako | \sh_away: the $100 laptop isn't real yet.. but it has a design and work is certainly progressing on it here | 05:21 |
| wasabi_ | I thought ROOT was the path to /dev/loop0 | 05:21 |

| Kamion | infinity: you can only have 512 glyphs in a console font, so we can't really win | 05:21 |
| infinity | pitti : Perhaps my using a vesafb has something to do with it using a sucky font? | 05:21 |

| Kamion | (according to Denis Barbier in $some_bug_I_forgot) | 05:21 |
| infinity | Kamion : I get pretty much zero codepoint coverage here. | 05:22 |

| Diziet | Right. So just ship it as index.html and every index-LOCALE.html that you see in ubuntu-docs. | 05:30 |
| pitti | Diziet: did I understand you right? m-f-locale-all just changes the homepage location, it does not ship the start pages itself, right? | 05:30 |
| Diziet | That's right. | 05:30 |
| pitti | ok | 05:30 |
| ogra | ok | 05:30 |
| jbailey | I'll do that. I just need to know where to put them. | 05:30 |
| Diziet | But you change the homepage location IF AND ONLY IF the new location is in the list from ubuntu-docs. | 05:30 |
| pitti | ogra: well, then you just need to have an edubuntu-artwork with the translated (and english) start page and it should DTRT | 05:30 |

| Kamion | but in the case of what actually gets into the installer, me ;) | 06:50 |
| Kamion | (I can do a number of sanity-checks even if I don't speak the language, such as "strings with wildly different meanings in English ought not to translate to the same string in another language") | 06:51 |
| Kamion | and I tend to go with Debian translations where available just because the merging gets insane for me otherwise | 06:51 |
| zyga | Kamion: I was thinking about a possible scenario where two people keep changing the same translation over and over | 06:52 |
| Kamion | well, that would be dysfunction within the translation team; Rosetta doesn't let you change a translation directly if you're not in the translation team - you can only make suggestions | 06:53 |

| Kamion | Nafallo: would it be possible for you to work with the d-i Swedish translation team to get your changes in there?

| elmo | actually, yeah, I think lists are a better idea | 10:31 |
| tseng | yes | 10:31 |
| bddebian | seb128: Am I allowed 1 more question? :-) | 10:32 |
| bddebian | lamont: Seriously do you know enlightenment or not? | 10:32 |
| tseng | elmo: is that still jeff? | 10:32 |
| seb128 | bddebian: sure | 10:32 |
| bddebian | seb128: Any ide what I would use for the <match type=" ".. /> entry for gdeb? | 10:33 |
| === fabbione wonders why he has 2 lp accounts | ||
| elmo | tseng: jeff can still do them yeah | 10:33 |
| bddebian | s/ide/idea | 10:33 |
| tseng | elmo, Kamion thanks | 10:33 |
| lamont | bddebian: the software, no. | 10:35 |
| bddebian | lamont: Then why are you all over the changelog? ;) | 10:36 |
| seb128 | bddebian: they seem to start with "!<arch> | 10:36 |
| seb128 | debian-binary" | 10:36 |
| lamont | bddebian: because I uploaded it. | 10:36 |
| lamont | you think I actually _know_ the code I hack on? | 10:36 |
| bddebian | lamont: Of course :-) | 10:37 |
| zyga | can usplash theoretically use more than 640x480x16? | 10:37 |
| lamont | bddebian: nah - I just fix things | 10:37 |
| bddebian | seb128: This is what glades looks like but I can't make sense out of it: | 10:37 |
| bddebian | <match type="string" value="<!DOCTYPE glade-interface" offset="0:256"/> | 10:37 |
| bddebian | <match type="string" value="<glade-interface" offset="0:64"/> | 10:37 |
| lamont | fixing something that's broken does not require understanding the thing, only understanding the problem. | 10:37 |
| bddebian | lamont: Well it FTBFSs for me on i386 now :-) | 10:37 |
| seb128 | bddebian: mimemagic | 10:37 |
| jdub | Kamion: how ready-for-prime-time would you regard oem-config? | 10:37 |
| lamont | bddebian: sounds like it should get fixed... :-0) | 10:37 |
| seb128 | bddebian: if the files has a "!DOCTYPE glade-interface" string between 0 and 256 chars it's a glade file | 10:38 |
| seb128 | bddebian: or glade-interface between 0 64 | 10:38 |

| qbertibur | hi | 10:38 |
| bddebian | lamont: Aye no shit. The question I guess was whether to bring in the newer debian version or not :-) | 10:39 |
| bddebian | seb128: Hmm, do you think I need those entries at all? | 10:39 |
| qbertibur | Who is working on the new ubuntu init-system? | 10:40 |
| seb128 | bddebian: you can try without them, but that's the way to get an efficient mime | 10:41 |
| bddebian | seb128: OK, well google ain't helping much. :-) | 10:41 |
| \sh | guys...what do u say to this: | 10:42 |
| \sh | Automatically selecting en_US.UTF-8 locale in addition to en_US. | 10:42 |

| janimo | jdub, what are the prerequisites for seeding xubuntu stuff?So I know what I do in the weekend :) | 10:45 |
| jdub | janimo: given that you've got a metapackage already, you're most ofthe way there | 10:46 |
| janimo | hmm we'll need to transition those to main? | 10:47 |
| jdub | janimo: we just have to convince Kamion to eek out some time to set up builds :) | 10:47 |
| jdub | nup | 10:47 |
| janimo | ok that's great than I'll put some more stuff in the meta as people on the list tend to agree on what we shoudl have | 10:47 |
| seb128 | janimo: I'm looking on your patch, will upload rsn | 10:48 |
| jdub | then someone will have to lead you through setting up the seed lists from the packages you've already selected | 10:48 |
| qbertibur | Does nobody know who might be working on an improved init? | 10:48 |
| janimo | seb128,yupee! | 10:48 |
| jdub | that could be myself or kamion | 10:48 |

| jdub | qbertibur: we're stabilising for release! :) | 10:48 |
| jdub | highly unlikely we'd do something along those lines for dapper, either | 10:48 |
| qbertibur | There will be a time after the release ;-) | 10:48 |
| janimo | jdub, whenever you guys will have time let me know a bit in advance and I'll be there | 10:49 |
| jdub | ok | 10:49 |
| tseng | jdub: so dude, how do i get a mailing list | 10:49 |
| jdub | tseng: you email mailman@lists.ubuntu.com with what you want :-) | 10:49 |
| jdub | what's the list for? | 10:50 |
| tseng | mono group | 10:50 |
| tseng | to be the target of the Maintainer: field to start | 10:50 |
| jdub | wow, rad - you've enough people interested in ubuntu-specific mono work? | 10:50 |
| tseng | 3 regulars | 10:50 |
| jdub | ah, maintainer field | 10:50 |
| === jdub groks | ||
| jdub | cool | 10:50 |
| tseng | slomo and ajmitch help out all the time :) | 10:51 |
| jdub | ubuntu-mono@lists... etc? | 10:51 |
| tseng | yeah pretty much | 10:51 |
| janimo | jdub, the motu folks - dholbach especially - have requested a spearte ml a while ago, what do you think?the motu is expanding | 10:51 |
| tseng | janimo: what would we talk about | 10:51 |
| janimo | and havinf the same stuff which is discussed on irc | 10:51 |
| jdub | janimo: yeah, we should definitely do that now | 10:51 |
| janimo | archived for generations of motus would be nice | 10:51 |
| tseng | devel is only too much traffic because of people posting bugs and replying to spam | 10:52 |
| janimo | tseng, the irclogs look very similar to half a year ago | 10:52 |
| janimo | similar blunders, questions | 10:52 |
| tseng | janimo: and we documented most of it on the wiki | 10:52 |
| janimo | tseng, but since you cannot decrease level on devel... | 10:52 |
| tseng | janimo: im not sure its our fault people keep asking the same | 10:52 |
| janimo | whether it's our fault or not is besides th epoint :) | 10:53 |
| janimo | it would definitely help new motus learn | 10:53 |
| janimo | I had such a break from motu that I could use some ml searching if it was in place ;) | 10:53 |
| bddebian | seb128: What do you think: <match type="string" value="debian" offset="0:8"/> ? | 10:54 |
| jdub | that would be a good list to mirror on the forums, too | 10:54 |

| seb128 | janimo: I change it for "sensible-browser" | 11:03 |
| janimo | seb128, ok | 11:03 |
| janimo | I thought it was a debian standard that all X browsers register that | 11:03 |
| janimo | do you have epiphany only installed? | 11:03 |
| janimo | or maybe I am grossly mislead | 11:03 |
