[02:01] no, just run dbus-monitor in a terminal. [02:02] Robot101, something like dbus-monitor for monitoring the TTY's ... [02:02] what?! no [02:02] a tty is a console in linux [02:03] it's got absolutely nothing to do with dbus [02:03] there is no dbus message that tells you when the system is shutting down [02:04] you could add one :) [02:05] ok, now how can I monitor the TTYs messages ? :( [02:05] but since you'll see X closing anyway a second or two after the message is sent, you will get small problems to display it in time :) [02:06] In one of the Window Managers (I don't remember, maybe fluxbox), it will show the tty messages. I want to emulate it in Gnome [02:06] are you talking about syslog?! [02:07] open a console and tail -f /var/log/syslog [02:08] or run gnome-system-log [02:09] Robot101, I need to it will run when a new message come [02:09] I really have no idea what you're talking about. where are these messages? find a screenshot or something. [02:10] <\sh> Moeen: you mean tty messages as if you "write" to another user on another console? [02:10] <\sh> or talk requests?

You are in gnome. when another person try to shutdown my computer by ssh, one new window shows that something like this : Broadcast message from root (pts/3) (Wed Dec 28 16:58:53 2005):The system is going down for system halt NOW [02:12] he wants something like system messages from managment console in windows :) [02:12] Moeen, the Robot101 gave you the right command, just have a terminal open with this command [02:12] s/the/then/ [02:13] <\sh> ogra_ibook: no it's not :) [02:13] <\sh> ogra_ibook: it [02:13] sure [02:13] <\sh> ogra_ibook: no....man write :) [02:13] the shutdown message should show up in syslog [02:13] <\sh> ogra_ibook: yes [02:14] hmm, dpkg -S dbus-monitor didn't return anything. [02:14] <\sh> ogra_ibook: but he means the "popup message on the console" [02:14] \sh, i know [02:14] <\sh> ogra_ibook: hint on "write" :) [02:14] sivang, dkpg -S dbus-utils === Mez [n=Mez@ubuntu/member/mez] has joined #ubuntu-devel [02:15] Moeen: I tried to search for the executable file itself , as dpkg -S should return it as well [02:15] \sh, yes, popup message on the Graphical mode :) [02:15] fecking internet [02:15] been down for 3 days cause pipexclosed tech support [02:15] what I said - window ssystem broadcasted messages :) [02:16] sivang, oh, right :P excuse me [02:16] Moeen: np :) [02:16] but it doesn't find any of those on my system. [02:16] Moeen: dbus-1-utils [02:17] I can't see the (shutdown) broadcasts in syslog ! [02:17] so tail 0f /var/log/syslog not works [02:17] s/0f/-f [02:18] then its in /var/log/messages [02:18] Dec 24 21:13:07 localhost shutdown[3579] : shutting down for system reboot [02:18] thats in my messages === m0rphx [n=morph@p85.212.175.214.tisdip.tiscali.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel [02:19] <\sh> Moeen: what you want is a syslog notifier for special messages [02:20] <\sh> Moeen: the "broadcasted messages" of `shutdown` are done via tty write, which has nothing to do with any GUI mode... [02:21] \sh, yes, but there isn't any application what show me these messages in graphical mode ?

[02:21] \sh, X (I use Gnome) [02:22] tail -f -c1 /var/log/messages|grep 'shutting down' && zenity --warning --text "shutdown" [02:22] ;) [02:23] <\sh> Moeen: yes yes...but "what graphical mode" should the text line be displayed? as cake or as candle? there is no other way of representing a text line only as text line...so "gnome-terminal" -> tail -f /var/log/messages :) [02:23] ogra_ibook, it will not show broadcast messages. you can try it : shutdown -k -h now [02:23] \sh - did you see my /query ? [02:23] ogra_ibook, then tail /var/log/messages [02:23] yes, that shows the above command for me [02:24] Dec 24 21:13:07 localhost shutdown[3579] : shutting down for system reboot [02:24] was a direct paste from my messages file [02:24] <\sh> Moeen: the "broadcast message" is special generated from shutdown and written to all opened tty devices via tty write...it has nothing to do with syslog or gui mode or what ever...what you see as broadcast message is just a nifty trick [02:25] its sent in parallel with the entry in the messages file ... [02:25] so if this one shows up, you can grep it in the messages file and show a zenity popup [02:26] \sh, yes, you are completely right ! [02:26] \sh, but of course there is some way to see them in graphical mode [02:27] <\sh> Moeen: ogra gave you the answer :) [02:27] Moeen: the zenity hacks seems to the point here :) [02:27] /var/log/messages not shows the broadcast messages, it will log shutdown when init changes [02:27] <\sh> Moeen: or you write something like a tty emulator for gnome-terminal, which is catching then the tty writes as well...there was a tool in kde somewhere === sivang notes KDE has a tool for everything. [02:28] :) [02:29] my workmates made em install them an kubuntu with amarok in, to be able to do DJing from web interface :) [02:29] sivang, do you know the KDE tool name for this reason ? [02:29] Moeen: no, I'm just mumbeling , sorry [02:29] sivang: except for making your food for you [02:29] Mez: soemthing liek that, yeah. I now realize how important is to have Kubuntu. [02:29] <\sh> sivang: i think it's not existing anymore... [02:29] sivang - cool [02:30] sivang, bah, take edubuntu, it unites the desktops ;) [02:31] ogra_ibook: it does? I didn't know that :) [02:31] only in the edu sector ;) [02:32] ogra_ibook: you use both KDE and GNOME , that is different tools from both to do the job? [02:32] but it has the advantag that you dont need to DL all the libs and language packs [02:32] \sh: the logger tool or amarok? :) [02:32] <\sh> sivang: the logger tool [02:32] \sh: ah [02:33] <\sh> sivang: well...amarok will disappear as well..when we don't need any digital music anymore... [02:34] \sh: when is this going to happen? when we have brain wave trasmitted music? :-D [02:34] pitti: about? [02:34] <\sh> sivang: sure thing :) so it means in 3-5 years ,) [02:37] resize_reiserfs is safe to use ? [02:38] subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 1 [02:38] from apt [02:38] does that mean the preinst script [02:38] or something else?

[02:53] Lathiat: just overwrite, it will go away :) [02:53] (that's what I've done) [02:53] overwrite what? [02:54] Lathiat: I got a problem with upgrading locales, about a file that was needed to replaced/overwrote. --force did the job [02:54] nah thats not my problem [02:54] Unpacking locales (from locales_2.3.7-1_all.deb) ...

[02:57] pitti: I didn't file any bugs about it :) I already read it :) === Mez [n=Mez@ubuntu/member/mez] has joined #ubuntu-devel [02:57] so i have to install the new lang packs first?

[02:59] pitti: I touched a dummy file, and it helped. Was it ok to solve this that way? [02:59] sure, yes [02:59] pitti: (and created the needed dir-tree) [02:59] pitti: ah, cool :) [03:00] pitti: yes, looks like that bug [03:00] interestingly running the preinst manually works [03:02] hrm, except the directory does exist here, weird [03:05] ok im at a loss i have absolutely no idea why this is failing [03:05] i extract the archive, the preinst script works fine, why would apt get me a sub-process pre-install script failed? === lfittl [n=lfittl@83-65-243-186.dynamic.xdsl-line.inode.at] has joined #ubuntu-devel [03:12] Lathiat: the only solution that worked for me was to patch the script and install the new deb [03:14] hrm indeed [03:14] interesting [03:14] i just removed the preinst script [03:15] the weird part is that the preinst script works fine before i go to install the package [03:15] oh well [03:15] yeah i stuck a debdiff up on bugzilla but it doesnt seem to work in every case [03:16] i saw that [03:18] there's got to be another solution though [03:21] Lathiat: you had that dir alerady and it still faild? [03:22] sivang: yes [03:22] which makes no sense to me, even running the preinst manually worked fine [03:28] weird. btw the bug report talks about breezy -> dapper, it also happen on hoary -> dapper === Hirion [n=hirion@draugr.de] has left #ubuntu-devel [] === Hirion [n=hirion@draugr.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel === lfittl [n=lfittl@83-65-243-186.dynamic.xdsl-line.inode.at] has joined #ubuntu-devel === mhz [n=mhz_chil@pc-252-84-215-201.cm.vtr.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel === trulux [n=lorenzo@unaffiliated/trulux] has joined #ubuntu-devel === thesaltydog [n=fabio@host242-169.pool8251.interbusiness.it] has joined #ubuntu-devel === doko [n=doko@dslb-084-059-106-135.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel === r0bby2 [n=wakawaka@pool-70-107-165-157.ny325.east.verizon.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel === doko [n=doko@dslb-084-059-106-135.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel === thesaltydog [n=fabio@host242-169.pool8251.interbusiness.it] has joined #ubuntu-devel === ogra_ibook [n=ogra@ubuntu/member/ogra] has joined #ubuntu-devel === zyga [n=zyga@ubuntu/member/zyga] has joined #ubuntu-devel [04:34] elmo: please sync passepartout from debian/unstable... ubuntu changes can be dropped... thanks :) === mdke [n=matt@ubuntu/member/mdke] has joined #ubuntu-devel === joe_alf [n=joe_alf@tor/session/x-25dc432721752135] has joined #ubuntu-devel === psusi [n=chatzill@69.44.168.233] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:06] who has access to bugzilla to change the default assignee for a package ? === mxpxpod [n=BryanFor@wuw-ojr3gmca.dybb.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:06] Mez: I can do this, what package?

[05:09] man pmount [05:09] read the POLICY section [05:10] Mez: done [05:10] psusi I would never want to have my win partition automounted! [05:10] mvo : cheers [05:10] the hal/g-v-m/pmount stack is intended entirely for removable media [05:10] thesaltydog: why not? [05:10] Mez: please test for typos etc :) [05:10] you can override the behaviour by putting user mountable entries in fstab [05:11] ...? [05:11] yea... but that question and answer comes up every day on the forums [05:11] because I need it only when there is some file to share, and for that I created a VFAT partition (automounted by fstab). [05:11] seems like it would be nice to just have them automount [05:11] mvo : :D http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/post_bug.cgi === jsgotangco [n=jsg@ubuntu/member/jsgotangco] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:13] so I'm wondering... is there a good reason NOT to have them automount? [05:13] psusi are you meaning the NTFS partition? [05:14] thesaltydog: generally... yea... but really any partition [05:14] if you have a removable media, it IS automounted. Fixed partitions can be automounted with fstab entry. So just edit your fstab. [05:15] I know this... but average users don't want to do that, and ask and are told that answer every single day [05:15] so make it an FAQ or something. [05:15] you should also be able to get them to be auto mounted by gnome-volume-manager by adding them to /etc/pmount.allow [05:15] tseng, +1 [05:16] ... or by adding them to fstab [05:16] psusi, g-v-m is for removable devices [05:16] tseng: it's in several FAQs, people still ask ;) [05:16] psusi: then that is their problem, I think [05:16] thesaltydog: why ONLY removable devices? It is perfectly capable of auto mounting hard drives too... so why shouldn't it? [05:16] why would i want to mount /var from another os [05:17] read the policy section in man pmount. I haven't wrote it. [05:17] and where would it go? [05:17] if you have a seperate /var partition in another os and boot into ubuntu, it would go somewhere like /media/hda7 [05:18] because the users who cant google for mounting windows know what hda7 maps too [05:18] thesaltydog: I understand that... my question is WHY? it is easy enough to override that policy and allow the hard disks to be auto mounted... this seems like it would be a good thing to me... so I am asking, why isn't it? [05:18] seriously, this doesnt seem like a problem if its already widely documented [05:18] tseng: when they open it and see all their windows files... they are happy === WaterSevenUb [n=WaterSev@195-23-220-185.net.novis.pt] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:18] yes [05:19] highly discoverable === tseng makes a face and goes away [05:19] iirc, when I installed ubuntu on a system with two drives, the setup process did configure the second drive in /etc/fstab automatically so it showed up on the desktop... but if you add the drive later, it doesn't "just work" [05:19] psusi, and when they write their first file on the NTFS partition they will be MORE happy :-) [05:20] thesaltydog: then they will be told it is read only... and when they ask why, there's a good answer... but at least they can read... [05:21] if theu can read, it's easy to copy and paste an fstab entry! [05:21] no, they can read their files I meant [05:21] from the FAQ [05:21] they still seem to have a hard time reading the FAQ ;) [05:22] I believe it is not safe. [05:22] hrm... under what circumstances could be be unsafe? [05:23] writing on the NTFS partition === mjg59 [n=mjg59@cavan.codon.org.uk] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:23] you can't write to NTFS partitions, the driver is read only [05:23] you have to make it read-onlu into the fstab [05:24] no.. the driver only supports read only mode [05:24] you can compile it with limited write support, which is actually safe, but of very little functionality, but the ones ubuntu distributes are compiled read only [05:26] and if auto mounting might not be safe, maybe g-v-m could prompt the user when a new disk is installed? then they could decide if they want to mount it, format it, etc... and it would "just work" === martink_ [n=martin@p54B3BE5F.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel === herzi [n=herzi@c138147.adsl.hansenet.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel === Arrogance [n=aks@ottawa-hs-206-191-33-66.d-ip.magma.ca] has joined #ubuntu-devel === Kilohertz [n=khz@200-231-132-140-mns.cpe.vivax.com.br] has joined #ubuntu-devel === r0bby [n=wakawaka@pool-70-107-165-157.ny325.east.verizon.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel === slomo [n=slomo@ubuntu/member/slomo] has joined #ubuntu-devel === shackan [n=mep@host76-144.pool873.interbusiness.it] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:42] hi, maybe it's not the right place, but what would I need in order to do a full recompile of ubuntu ? === hyperactivecrond [n=chris@ppp-69-214-139-26.dsl.bcvloh.ameritech.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:44] a friend of mine wants to compile it for amd64, I do know there are binaries available already, but he has got his reasons [05:44] err...

[05:47] shackan: Not trivially, no [05:47] not really [05:47] let's keep gentooisms away, please [05:47] mjg59, why not ? [05:47] shackan: Because (a) there's no infrastructure to do so, and (b) there are circular build depends [05:47] shackan, you're better off doing it from scratch [05:48] linux from scratch, or sourcemage, or *shudder* gentoo [05:48] gentoo's not so bad really, you get to learn a lot [05:48] shackan: With (a) and (b) being due to (c) (there's no real point in doing so) [05:48] mjg59, so how do your buildservers work ? [05:49] wowzers, the pastebin script is the best thing since sliced bread [05:49] shackan: Ubuntu was bootstrapped from Debian [05:49] jsgotangco: But only since gentoo usually fails in some place or another. [05:49] true [05:49] jsgotangco: You do not learn more by sitting through endless compiler sessions (if everything works). [05:49] shackan: As for the initial Debian port - it was done by hand (since it only had to be done once) [05:50] hunger, yes let's skip that part tee hee [05:50] jsgotangco: slackware's where it's at, if it's learning you're after [05:50] jsgotangco: Agreed:-) Let's not waste energy on gentoo when not using it;-) [05:51] can't you just apt-get source all the packages and build them, then install them with dpkg? very time consuming, but possible no? [05:51] psusi: Yes, but that's not "from scratch" [05:51] there's nothing like the feeling of recovering a system after a (by-hand) botched glibc upgrade [05:51] dilinger: also known as "restore from backups" [05:52] pfft. backups are for weenies! [05:52] lol [05:52] I guess it depends on how you define "from scratch"... I'd say formatting a hard drive, starting with debootstrap, then compiling all the packages is prety "from scratch" ;) [05:53] Heh [05:53] dilinger: is it something like recovering a system by hand after an MBR gets botched up? [05:53] ;) [05:53] mjg59: let's suppose I want to compile ubuntu for a not-supported arch (I DO know there's debian for that and that you do not support other archs, it is just an *example*) so, how would one do ? [05:54] dd + emacs hexl-mode == fun times [05:54] shackan: You build stuff by hand until the circular build depends are satisfied [05:54] psusi: it's a bit more difficult; imagine if your MBR had config files scattered around /usr and /etc, and tied in with your compiler [05:54] Then you start feeding things into pbuilder [05:55] dilinger: outch.... [05:55] But since there's not really any architectures that Linux usefully runs on and Debian doesn't... [05:55] yap, I said it was an example, thanks [05:56] But that's /why/ there's no infrastructure to do it. [06:00] well, there has to be an infrastructure to do it :D you wouldn't be able to build ubuntu in the first place otherwise [06:01] psusi: you get libc fixed, but then your compiler no longer works. you fix your compiler, but everything c++ based is suddenly broken.. [06:01] psusi: it's lots of fun :) [06:02] shackan: Uh. No. We started from Debian. [06:03] is it true that we have a new installer? [06:06] mjg59: ok, but now you have some sort of infrastructure on you own :D [06:06] ok, so it would appear that openswan decides whether to use klips or netkey based upon the existence of /proc/net/ipsec_version and /proc/net/pfkey, respectively [06:06] er, ECHAN [06:08] shackan: Not really, no === rtcm [n=jman@81.84.150.148] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:08] Individual packages are built whenever a new source package is uploaded [06:08] But there's no requirement to be able to start from scratch === koke [n=koke@ubuntu/member/koke] has joined #ubuntu-devel === Pygi is now known as Pygi_ === Pygi_ is now known as famaf [06:22] err i can't login to the wiki but i can login to launchpad [06:23] any ideas?

[06:24] thesaltydog: *sigh* where do i sign up for the wiki then [06:25] mmhh maybe I'm wrong. To register to the wiki you should register to launchpad. I was wrong because I have registered to the wiki before launchpad was up. [06:26]
