| ijuz | is there an easy way to deactivate the validation of packages in the debian-installer? | 12:51 |
| daniels | Kamion: (that would mean that the d-i keymap stuff could just pick an xkb map, and then everyone could stfu about differences in the installer and x map; the only problem would be an incorrect map) | 12:51 |
| Seveas | ijuz, why would you EVER want that? | 12:53 |
| ijuz | Seveas: i'm experimenting with using a different compression for the packages and therefore the md5 sums changed | 12:54 |
| Seveas | then update the md5sum lists :) | 12:54 |
| elmo | oh, that reminds me, I need to post about 7zip compression, it's kinda scarily good | 12:55 |
| ijuz | hehe... | 12:55 |
| ijuz | really good | 12:55 |
| daniels | elmo: actually it's far from the best | 12:56 |
| daniels | elmo: pales in comparison to dpkg v3's algorithm | 12:56 |
| elmo | daniels: har har | 12:56 |
| daniels | the downside is that you need flash and a jvm in the installer | 12:56 |
| Robot101 | dpkg v3? :P | 12:57 |
| jdub | elmo: you'd pimp 7z for dapper+1? | 12:57 |
| daniels | doogie ftw | 12:57 |
| elmo | seriously, 7zip-ing the entire archive would save 2.3Gb _per-arch_ in breezy | 12:57 |
| ijuz | elmo: full 7zip isn't so easy | 12:57 |
| daniels | jdub: 7z for d+1 would require 7z support in d? | 12:57 |
| jdub | wow | 12:57 |
| elmo | err, actually not per-arch strictly speaking because it includes arch: all, but still | 12:57 |
| jdub | daniels: urgh, yeah | 12:57 |
| elmo | and it's better than bzip2 in cpu and memory too, IIRC | 12:57 |
| elmo | I did stats and graphs and stuff | 12:57 |
| jdub | elmo: sshot! | 12:58 |
| daniels | elmo: are they BLING? | 12:58 |
| jdub | elmo: blog! | 12:58 |
| ijuz | 7zip (only lzma) breezy install CD is: 245601 extents written (479 MB) | 12:58 |
| daniels | elmo: i want the graph in chrome | 12:58 |
| elmo | ijuz: why not? | 12:58 |
| ijuz | lzma is easy, i'm just doign this | 12:58 |
| ijuz | you first have to compile all the 7zip stuff and get it working in debian-installer | 12:59 |
| jdub | elmo: actually, while i've got you, how doable are the firewall changes for humboldt->rookery (http)? | 12:59 |

| psusi | ahh.... hi... now why was I looking for you? hrm... | 05:34 |
| whiprush | psusi: he's got a cool hat | 05:34 |
| psusi | infinity, ahh, right... I have a bug that has been pending since breezy was released for dmraid support... it's currently assigned to you for some reason, I guess because you maintain mkinitramfs | 05:35 |
| psusi | infinity, could you glance at the attached scripts to see if they look ok, and reassign the bug to the dmraid package sometime? | 05:35 |
| psusi | bug #15897 | 05:36 |
| infinity | Probably little need for me to glance at all. The bug definitely belongs to dmraid. | 05:37 |
| psusi | I think that the idea is that those packages are supposed to go into the dmraid package rather than mkinitramfs... once that's done, next task is to get the package moved to main and added to the seed I think | 05:37 |
| psusi | s/packages/scripts | 05:37 |
| infinity | dmraid-in-main (and in the installer, oh my) are entirely different issues, but initramfs integration would certainly be nice. | 05:38 |
| infinity | I believe fabbione was maintaining (or fiddling with) dmraid in Ubuntu. | 05:38 |
| psusi | aye... | 05:38 |
| infinity | If you're looking for a scapegoat to harass and reassign your bug to. :) | 05:38 |
| psusi | yes, please do ;) | 05:38 |
| psusi | I understand he has such hardware, but doesn't have it working for some reason... works fine for me though and 3 or 4 others who have spoken to me | 05:39 |
| infinity | I just bought a dmraidable controller recently, but I dunno if I'll have time to do anything fun with it. | 05:39 |
| psusi | it sure is nice to boot directly from a raid0 between two 10,000 rpm drives ;) | 05:39 |
| psusi | and be able to dual boot with winxp no less ( not that I ever use it any more ) | 05:39 |
| psusi | but I've been hoping for dapper to be able to install normally instead of having to debootstrap from the livecd | 05:40 |
| psusi | though... I guess if dapper is going to have a combined install/livecd, an apt-get install dmraid is easy enough | 05:41 |

| pitti | Good morning | 08:23 |
| desrt | hello. | 08:28 |
| desrt | how are you? | 08:28 |
| Keybuk | hey desrt | 08:31 |
| desrt | hey. haven't heard from you in a while. | 08:31 |
| desrt | i actually had a question you could have helped with the other day... someone was here asking about how hotplug works | 08:32 |
| pitti | hi desrt | 08:32 |
| desrt | i was able to explain it all except for one point (which i told him my guess) | 08:32 |
| desrt | does udev call modprobe with some tag like usb-id-1234-5678 and modprobe does the lookup? | 08:32 |
| Keybuk | yes | 08:32 |
| Keybuk | pretty much exactly like that | 08:32 |
| desrt | that's really nice. | 08:33 |
| Keybuk | the tag comes from the kernel and is known as a "MODALIAS" | 08:33 |
| desrt | sweet | 08:33 |
| desrt | udev and the kernel both get to be oblivious | 08:33 |
| desrt | i love that :) | 08:33 |
| Keybuk | and the lookup table comes from the modules themselves (they have alias config options, use modinfo on one) and is stored in modules.alias by depmod | 08:33 |
| desrt | oh wow. big file. | 08:34 |
| Keybuk | descent scott% modinfo tg3 | 08:34 |
| === CarlFK [n=carl@c-67-163-39-124.hsd1.il.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Keybuk | : | 08:34 |
| Keybuk | alias: pci:v000014E4d00001644sv*sd*bc*sc*i* | 08:34 |
| Keybuk | alias: pci:v000014E4d00001645sv*sd*bc*sc*i* | 08:34 |
| Keybuk | : | 08:34 |
| Keybuk | etc. | 08:34 |
| desrt | i assumed that it parsed all of the modules/modules.*map files each time | 08:34 |
| Keybuk | nah, that's how we used to do it in breezy | 08:34 |
| desrt | oh well | 08:34 |
| desrt | this is really neat :) | 08:34 |
| Keybuk | in breezy, the kernel provided a bunch of information about the device in various environment variables; we then had a shell script that collected those up, called grepmap to find the modules using the modules.*map files, and then loaded the modules | 08:35 |
| Keybuk | the dapper way is MUCH easier | 08:35 |
| desrt | indeed. | 08:35 |
| Keybuk | ENV{MODALIAS}=="?*", RUN+="/sbin/modprobe -Q $env{MODALIAS}" | 08:35 |
| desrt | seems like there might be some benefit to pre-parsing/caching all of the modprobe.d files and the alias map into a single quick binary format... | 08:35 |
| Keybuk | possibly, though I expect most of the time is spent on string matching, rather than file parsing | 08:36 |
| desrt | right. i mean a hash or a tree of some kind | 08:37 |
| Keybuk | that'd mean you'd need to know the format of the modalias, no? | 08:37 |
| Keybuk | the nice thing currently is that it's just a random string | 08:37 |
| desrt | i mean take all of the modprobe files and make a hash table (or such) of all of the aliases | 08:38 |
| Keybuk | you can stick "alias desrt-cd-* mod_foo" in there, and modprobe desrt-cd-wibble, etc. | 08:38 |
| desrt | oh. | 08:38 |
| desrt | wildcards in alises? | 08:38 |
| desrt | no thx :) | 08:38 |
| Keybuk | right | 08:38 |
| Keybuk | that's how they work | 08:38 |
| desrt | oh man. ok. much harder problem. | 08:38 |
| Mithrandir | nah, not really. You can do glob trees. | 08:38 |
| desrt | true. | 08:38 |
| Mithrandir | it's just a state machine. | 08:39 |
| Keybuk | the module declares something like usb:v0499p100Ed*dc*dsc*dp*ic*isc*ip* | 08:39 |
| desrt | and it looks like for most of these aliases here the beginning part is almost unique | 08:39 |
| Keybuk | and the device has a much longer string | 08:39 |
| Keybuk | desrt: often the first couple of fields are vendor/device ids ... but not always | 08:39 |
| desrt | so you could do alookup of the part before the first * real quick then do a quick-check for if it is a real match | 08:39 |
| Mithrandir | Keybuk: does it do best-match or first-match? | 08:40 |
| Keybuk | Mithrandir: all matches | 08:40 |
| Mithrandir | ah, ok | 08:40 |
| Keybuk | if a device matches multiple module aliases, all of the modules are loaded | 08:40 |
| desrt | actually | 08:40 |
| infinity | For better or worse. | 08:40 |
| Keybuk | so you can get usbmouse, usbhid, usbcore, etc. for a device | 08:40 |
| Keybuk | and evbug, which we blacklist :p | 08:40 |
| desrt | if we were going for maximum speedup we could add modprobe/insmod functionality to udevd :) | 08:40 |
| Mithrandir | we don't blacklist usbmouse? | 08:41 |
| Keybuk | desrt: that would be the way to do it, have udevd parse and cache modprobe.d and modules.alias, and watch with inotify for changes | 08:41 |
| Keybuk | pretty much like we do for rules.d | 08:41 |
| Keybuk | Mithrandir: shush, I was examplifiying | 08:41 |
| Mithrandir | heh | 08:41 |
| desrt | Keybuk; i filed a bug about loading modules against alsa recently. don't suppose that's anything you're involved with? | 08:41 |
| Keybuk | what was your bug? | 08:42 |
| desrt | the order in which the sound modules are loaded needs to be changed | 08:42 |
| infinity | Ooo. | 08:42 |
| infinity | Keybuk: This should make you happy: | 08:42 |
| infinity | The patch creates sysfs device links for athX interfaces and changes | 08:42 |
| infinity | the ARP type of the wifiX interface to ARPHRD_IEEE80211. This is | 08:42 |
| infinity | needed by tools like NetworkManager or SUSE's ifup for proper | 08:42 |
| infinity | operation, and hopefully fixes tickets #70 and #205. | 08:42 |
| desrt | infinity; ship new fglrx!!!! | 08:42 |
| infinity | desrt: s/new/fixed/ you mean? | 08:42 |
| desrt | infinity; yes. fixed would be new :) | 08:42 |
| infinity | desrt: Working on LRM right now (hence the above quote) | 08:42 |
| Keybuk | pitti: btw, I have a /etc/udev/rules.d/libsane.rules ... why? | 08:43 |
| desrt | Keybuk; http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=21801 | 08:43 |
| infinity | Keybuk: Of course, that's in the madwifi-ng branch, which we've not switched to because it scares me (we're still shipping madwifi-old, cause, well, it works, and I don't have atheros hardware to test the new stuff on) | 08:43 |
| Keybuk | infinity: I don't get what that does? | 08:43 |
| pitti | Keybuk: oh, ouch - it should be 45-libsane.rules, right? | 08:44 |
| Keybuk | sounds like they just fixed madwifi-ng to actually show up the card as a wifi card | 08:44 |
| desrt | infinity; i have an atheros -and- a powerpc if you need testing on anything | 08:44 |
| Keybuk | pitti: yes, and it shouldn't call /etc/hotplug.d/usb/libsane.hotplug, cause that doesn't exist? :p | 08:44 |
| pitti | Keybuk: I'll ask Mithrandir about it; he did the change and he is able to test it (no scanner here) | 08:45 |
| Keybuk | in fact, it still ships things in /etc/hotplug which it should not do | 08:45 |
| desrt | oddly i think the atheros is in my coat pocket... | 08:45 |
| === desrt pads off to find it | ||
| Mithrandir | Keybuk: probably because I suck, then. | 08:45 |
| infinity | Keybuk: You were complaining that your atheros and NM didn't get along. I'm assuming from that log message that (with madwifi-ng), they should. <shrug> | 08:45 |
| pitti | Mithrandir: oh, heh - I think the RUN rule can safely be removed | 08:45 |
| Keybuk | infinity: nope, that won't fix it | 08:45 |
| Keybuk | allegedly madwifi-ng fixes it out of the box anyway | 08:45 |
| infinity | Ahh. | 08:46 |
| pitti | Mithrandir: it seems to set mode and group just fine | 08:46 |
| Keybuk | the problem is that the madwifi driver doesn't do "background scanning" | 08:46 |
| Keybuk | if you instruct the card to scan for new networks, it has to leap off the one its on | 08:46 |
| Keybuk | not good when n-m does a scan every 13 seconds :p | 08:46 |
| infinity | Keybuk: Well, if I can get a good response on a call for testing, I'll happily switch to -ng. I'm just not keen on shipping code I can't test and finding out that it's broken after we press CDs. :) | 08:46 |
| Keybuk | infinity: give me a package and I'll test away | 08:46 |

| infinity | Alright, cool. I'll roll up -ng in the next day or two, then. | 08:47 |
| StevenK | (Or dlocate) | 08:47 |
| Keybuk | do they have different module names, or did they helpfully use the same ones? | 08:47 |

| Mez | hmm | 08:48 |
| Mez | apparently not found | 08:48 |
| Keybuk | what's the file? | 08:48 |
| infinity | Keybuk: Looks similar enough. | 08:48 |
| Burgundavia | infinity, post a call on the laptop-testing mailing list | 08:48 |
| Mithrandir | pitti: I can't really test it here, since I need a patched sane-backends, as I need the genesys backend. I was going to fix that at some point in dapper, but ENOTIME so far. | 08:48 |
| Keybuk | infinity: bah; if they used different, we could've shipped both and just blacklisted one :p | 08:48 |
| Mez | Keybuk, /usr/bin/qmake | 08:48 |
| infinity | Keybuk: I can do that anyway. <shrug> | 08:48 |

| Keybuk | http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_contents.pl?word=qmake&searchmode=searchfiles&case=insensitive&version=breezy&arch=i386 | 08:49 |
| infinity | Keybuk: I already do something similarly evil with nvidia/nvidia_legacy (which are both originally "nvidia") | 08:49 |
| Mez | StevenK, nvm- I found out I had to use dpkg -S qmake not dpkg -S /usr/bin/qmake | 08:49 |
| infinity | Keybuk: Given the changes between the two, though, I'd rather just switch wholesale to -ng if it works for most people. | 08:50 |
| Mez | oh wait - yes it is :D | 08:50 |
| Burgundavia | infinity, -ng doesn't work for USB atheros devices | 08:50 |

| pitti | mjg59: sorry, I couldn't review pam_foreground yesterday any more, my head exploded (I still suffer from a cold) | 10:19 |
| pitti | mjg59: I'm reviewing it now | 10:19 |
| pitti | mjg59: shouldn't the package activate the module in pam somehow (conffile/postinst)? if not, where do you intend to do that? | 10:20 |
| Keybuk | pitti: meh, could you start an audit of libsepol for me | 10:30 |
| Keybuk | when I pointed out it wasn't needed, RH's response was to provide the missing call into it | 10:30 |
| pitti | Keybuk: could you please create an initial report for it? QA and bug research, etc. | 10:32 |
| pitti | Keybuk: I'll do the source review and security history research | 10:32 |
| pitti | Keybuk: but it should be in the MainInclusionQueue so that I don't forget | 10:32 |
| Keybuk | yeah, it's just going to block further udev uploads | 10:33 |
| Keybuk | including the one I need to do today | 10:33 |
| pitti | Keybuk: btw, could you make sense of that ppc hang? | 10:33 |
| Keybuk | yes, today's upload would fix that, if it wasn't going to block on libsepol :p | 10:33 |
| Keybuk | do you want historic CVEs? | 10:36 |
| pitti | Keybuk: I can do that myself, but if you want do look for that, sure :) | 10:36 |
| Keybuk | (not that there are any, but I thought I'd check) | 10:36 |
| pitti | Keybuk: I'm just interested about how vulnerable a new package was in the past, to see how much of a burden it will be | 10:36 |

| seb128 | pitti: did you and Keybuk discussed floppy? | 10:40 |
| pitti | Keybuk: i. e. does it do what it's supposed to, does it have many upstream bugs, an active upstream, etc.? | 10:40 |
| seb128 | pitti: any reason to have /dev/fd0 640 instead of 660? It makes gfloppy unhappy, it wants writing to format | 10:40 |
| pitti | seb128: no? | 10:40 |

| pitti | seb128: hm, we keep plugdev devices r/o for the user, but I don't particularly mind | 10:41 |
| Keybuk | pitti: no idea, haven't looked at it; it's part of the great selinux beast | 10:41 |
| pitti | seb128: 0640 would be consistent to USB sticks and the like, and I quickly discussed that ages ago with mdz | 10:41 |
| seb128 | floppy group members should be allowed to format a floppy no? | 10:41 |
| Treenaks | pitti: also when we want to format USB sticks? | 10:42 |
| Keybuk | write access to a device allows formatting | 10:42 |
| Treenaks | pitti: people keeps asking that too | 10:42 |
| pitti | seb128: if we want to allow that, then we should allow plugdev members to format their usb sticks, too, IMHO | 10:42 |
| seb128 | fine with me | 10:42 |
| pitti | with me, too | 10:42 |
| pitti | it shuold just be consistent | 10:42 |
| seb128 | k, so please do it 660 consistant :) | 10:42 |
| pitti | the problem with that is that it would allow users to circumvent permissions on e.g. ext2 drives | 10:42 |

| jk_work | mjg59: Is "seamless" wireless wpa support on the agenda? | 10:44 |
| jk_work | comments to https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=16551 | 10:44 |
| pitti | it's mainly how we want to consider usb/fw devices - entirely untrusted, or we want to enforce r/o file permissions on file systems that support them | 10:44 |
| jk_work | point out that wpasupplicant is in universe | 10:44 |
| crimsun | jk_work: I've already fixed that in Dapper. | 10:45 |
| Keybuk | pitti: meh, don't worry about it actually; false alarm, was a different bug in selinux, it doesn't need libsepol | 10:45 |
| crimsun | jk_work: it now uses ifupdown | 10:45 |
| jk_work | nice | 10:45 |
| pitti | Keybuk: that means you don't need the package at all, or it isn't from selinux? | 10:45 |
| Keybuk | don't need it at all | 10:45 |
| crimsun | I need to consider the case where there are multiple wireless interfaces, but the single case is handled already | 10:45 |
| Keybuk | well, not yet anyway | 10:45 |
| pitti | Keybuk: cool :) | 10:45 |
| jk_work | crimsun: will wpa support be included in ubuntu proper, or will it remain in universe? | 10:48 |
| crimsun | jk_work: that I don't know | 10:48 |
| Keybuk | pitti: *shrug* if you're in plugdev, you theoretically have physical access to both disk and machine | 10:51 |
| Keybuk | is formatting a disk a root operation? | 10:52 |
| Treenaks | Keybuk: not for floppies | 10:52 |
| Keybuk | Treenaks: why not? | 10:52 |
| Keybuk | why are floppies treated differently to USB keys | 10:52 |
| Keybuk | if I'm not root, should I be able to format a floppy? | 10:52 |
| === koke [n=koke@ubuntu/member/koke] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| pitti | Keybuk: I don't understand - why does plugdev membership imply physical access? | 10:53 |
| Keybuk | pitti: because it's the access you give people so they can plug things in? :p | 10:53 |
| Keybuk | if they don't need to plug it in, they don't need plugdev | 10:53 |
| pitti | Keybuk: if you use an USB drive on e. g. a kiosk system, then the user can't write onto the raw disk | 10:53 |
| pitti | Keybuk: ok, true | 10:53 |
| Keybuk | I wouldn't give the user plugdev to solve that, they don't need to write to the raw disk | 10:53 |
| Kamion | pitti: has anyone asked you to look at notify-daemon? | 10:53 |
| pitti | Keybuk: such things are corner cases anyway, and as I wrote above, I'd be fine with 066 | 10:54 |
| Keybuk | 660 you mean? :p | 10:54 |
| Kamion | pitti: I'm not certain whether it needs an inclusion report or not; it's a next-generation version of notification-daemon, but I'm not sure whether it's a continuation of the cdebase | 10:54 |
| pitti | Keybuk: I'm in a mirror mood today | 10:54 |
| Kamion | codebase | 10:54 |
| Keybuk | pitti: ok, 660 it is | 10:54 |

| Keybuk | I haven't written any new code for that yet, might actually tackle it this afternoon | 11:14 |
| Keybuk | there's plenty of dup bugs about it already | 11:14 |

| pitti | Keybuk: actually, I always need to go over to my gf (who sits at my laptop) whenever she needs the wireless :) | 11:16 |
| hunger | Is it possible not to compress all those X manpages that contain only ".so man3x/something"? They actually grow when compressed. | 11:18 |
| hunger | By the may: They point to non-existing files. The stuff moved to man3/something. | 11:18 |
| Kamion | hunger: it doesn't matter that they grow because they'll still be less than one filesystem block | 11:20 |
| Kamion | but you could file a wishlist bug against debhelper on bugs.debian.org asking for dh_compress to skip them, I guess; joeyh might do that | 11:20 |
| hunger | Kamion: I think it does in reiserfs... but that is a good point:-) | 11:20 |
| Keybuk | where the buggery-bollocks does selinux matchpathcon_init_prefix come from?! | 11:20 |
| hunger | Kamion: The wrong path is rather annoying though... I get mails complaining about that each night. | 11:21 |

| Nafallo | mjg59: hi! :-), I found something strange that I don't know if it's known... after hibernate/wakeup my brightness up and down keys works as both up and down (i.e. I press on it to its at max, then it goes to minimum and then back up to max etc). | 01:30 |
| mjg59 | Nafallo: Hmm. Weird. | 01:30 |
| Nafallo | agreed ;-) | 01:31 |
| mjg59 | Nafallo: Just the once, or always after wakeup? | 01:31 |
| Nafallo | reproducible aswell, only after wakeup. | 01:31 |
| mjg59 | Sorry, I meant - once you've woken up, does it happen once and then start working properly? | 01:31 |

| maswan | well, they don't actually support linux, so nothing preinstalled | 01:52 |
| maswan | highvoltage: well, suggesting them to bunlde flight-2 is kind of icky too | 01:52 |
| maswan | and support for the ide/sata stuff came with 2.6.15 | 01:53 |
| highvoltage | maswan: better than fedora core :) | 01:53 |
| maswan | highvoltage: :) | 01:53 |
| maswan | Actually, I think you could tinker aroudn in bios and make it hide as an ide drive that you could install on | 01:53 |
| maswan | but then you couldn't access the cd/dvd-drive | 01:53 |
| highvoltage | yep, enable ide emulation in bios. | 01:53 |
| highvoltage | you should just emulate as another controller. | 01:54 |
| highvoltage | if you emulate your sata disks as hda and hdb, and your cdrom is on hda, then it wont work. | 01:54 |

| Diziet | dholbach: I wanted to talk to you briefly about your change to ffox's debian/rules. Your comment says `commented out, broke on everything but i386'. Can you say in what way ? | 03:48 |
| ijuz | i just wondered about lzma in ubuntu because space should be soon a contraint with the same package set for 1 CD | 03:49 |
| Keybuk | ijuz: we've briefly looked into it, it needs a thorough investigation though | 03:50 |
| Keybuk | in particular, how much space is gained broken down into package groups | 03:50 |
| Keybuk | difference in resources (cpu, memory, time, etc.) to unpack and pack | 03:50 |

| ijuz | Mithrandir: sure, but don't you need that too for what you are using now? | 03:55 |
| Kamion | ijuz: no, with cloop you can use device-mapper snapshots | 03:55 |
| Mithrandir | ijuz: no, devmapper with a writable snapshot doesn't need it. | 03:55 |
| Kamion | but they don't work with squashfs because squashfs is a fundamentally read-only fs | 03:55 |

| Diziet | Err, I mean: | 04:04 |
| Diziet | dholbach: Yes, but why did what you did fix it ? | 04:04 |
| dholbach | Diziet: that's a very good question | 04:05 |
| dholbach | Diziet: i'm afraid, I have no answer :-( | 04:05 |
| Diziet | I'm talking about the one where you unwrapped the seddery. | 04:05 |
| dholbach | Yeah, i don't know. It was a matter of trial and failure. :( | 04:06 |
| Diziet | You didn't _change_ the seddery, did you ? You just removed various instances of tab tab \ lf tab tab . | 04:06 |
| Diziet | It's a bit hard to tell because of the formatting change :-). | 04:06 |
| Diziet | I should thank you from clearing up my mess, though, so thanks. | 04:06 |
| dholbach | No problem, I always hoped I didn't produce more mess. :-) | 04:07 |
| Diziet | Do non-i386's have different /bin/sh, or different make ? | 04:07 |
| Diziet | I know this seems optimistic, but I want to understand it so that I can fix the root cause (whether that's in my head or somewhere else ...) | 04:07 |
| Kamion | make had a related change recently | 04:07 |
| Kamion | I think it may have been reverted, but can't remember exactly; check the recent changelogs | 04:08 |
| Kamion | I know Joey had to make a similar unwrapping change in debconf (in fact I think he moved the seddery complete with backslash-newlines into a define) | 04:08 |
| Diziet | Joy. | 04:08 |
| Diziet | And that fixed it ? | 04:08 |
| Kamion | yes | 04:08 |
| Diziet | Cripes. | 04:08 |
| Kamion | perhaps i386 built firefox with a different version of make due to timing | 04:09 |
| Kamion | the top of the build log should say | 04:09 |
| Diziet | I think I'll try a test build with dholbach's change reverted and see. | 04:09 |
| psusi | does this lzma squashfs use a larger block size than the normal squashfs? imho, using a larger block size has far more impact on compression than lz vs lzma | 04:10 |
| Kamion | bah, no, the build log doesn't list that | 04:10 |
| Kamion | lamont-away: it'd be nice if make were listed among "Toolchain package versions" | 04:10 |
| Diziet | Lots of the stuff in make is completely crackheaded. Recently I discovered that $(shell $(variable)) after define variable splits variable up by newlines into separate arguments and appends that argument list to sh -c . | 04:10 |
| psusi | iirc, squashfs defaults to a 4 KB block size... you can get significantly better compression by increasing that to 64k or more, but it has more overhead for small random io | 04:11 |
| Mithrandir | psusi: it defaults to 64k in my tests. | 04:11 |
| psusi | Mithrandir: so both normal and lzma you have set to use 64k? | 04:12 |
| psusi | and lzma is significantly better compression with equal block size? | 04:12 |
| Mithrandir | yes | 04:13 |
| psusi | wow | 04:13 |
| seb128 | Diziet: I did that change to firefox: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/5999 (the formatting of the patch is screwed by launchpad) | 04:14 |
| Diziet | seb128: Right. | 04:15 |

| mvo | Kamion: what is your use-case/goal? | 04:23 |
| Kamion | mvo: I'm trying to start up a debconf coprocess from a GtkNotebook switch_page handler to drive the logic of the new page | 04:24 |
| Kamion | mvo: when that coprocess gets an INPUT command, it needs to wait for more gtk events to find out whether to back up or not | 04:25 |
| Kamion | the problem is that when I try to do that, the new page doesn't get drawn | 04:25 |
| mvo | Kamion: would a "while(gtk_events_pending()) do gtk_main_iteration(); " help you there? | 04:26 |
| zyga | Kamion: coprocess? | 04:26 |

| Kamion | mvo: I don't see how, since gtk.main() doesn't get around to drawing the page so I'd guess repeated iterations won't either | 04:26 |

| zyga | Kamion: all sounds fishy, while I don't know the problem I'd opt for a longish clean solution | 04:31 |
| sbalneav | Hello all! Can anyone point me at some docs for adding launchers to the panel in Gnome 2.12 in some scriptable way? The latest Gnome Administrator's guide is from 2.6, and it seems that most of the gconftool-2 keys have changed about. | 04:32 |
| elmo | jdub: only 'lo' appears in the properties of the network status applet, that's the problem | 04:32 |
| Kamion | zyga: I'm not sure what you mean | 04:33 |
| tseng | elmo: if the other interfaces are down they dont show in the drop down | 04:33 |
| elmo | tseng: eth1 is up, and in use | 04:33 |
| Kamion | zyga: it's similar to oem-config; I'm basically filtering the debconf protocol in order to implement a pretty interface on top of questions asked by debconf (specifically, UbuntuExpress calling d-i code) | 04:35 |
| zyga | Kamion: well if you need gtk.main() and main_quit() voodoo around the app needs redesign IMHO | 04:35 |
| zyga | Kamion: hmm, cannot you spawn a subprocess to get the input and report back? | 04:35 |
| zyga | I don't know debconf internals but it seems to be ask-and-wait, right? | 04:35 |
| Kamion | zyga: no, because the subprocess won't exit | 04:35 |
| zyga | Kamion: why not | 04:36 |
| Kamion | the flow is that the debconf confmodule (the script running under debconf) calls the INPUT command, and at that point the user interface needs to do stuff | 04:36 |
| zyga | Kamion: subprocess like simple text dialog for example | 04:36 |
| Kamion | and then report back to debconf whether to go back or forward | 04:36 |
| zyga | Kamion: but why cannot that input command simply spawn a UI process, wait for it to exit and report back? | 04:37 |
| Kamion | zyga: because then I can't keep the UI for the whole thing within a single unified window | 04:37 |
| psusi | pitti: you around? | 04:38 |
| Kamion | and several questions from debconf may correspond to a single piece of UI | 04:38 |
| elmo | partman (68/76ubuntu1+1): in main - skipping. | 04:38 |
| zyga | Kamion: ah, you need plug into existing window | 04:38 |
| elmo | baseconfig-udeb (1.04/1.04): in main - skipping. | 04:38 |
| pitti | psusi: yes | 04:38 |
| zyga | Kamion: you can spawn ui daemon that can show and hide windows | 04:38 |
| elmo | Kamion: any of those safe for removal yet? | 04:38 |
| psusi | pitti: you seen the spec page I made? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PacketCD | 04:38 |
| zyga | Kamion: and use something like DBUS to talk to | 04:38 |
| Kamion | elmo: partman is different and needs to stay permanently; baseconfig-udeb can go | 04:38 |
| zyga | this would really rock btw | 04:38 |
| Kamion | zyga: ok, you just got way beyond the complexity I'm prepared to deal with in the time available. maybe later. | 04:38 |
| pitti | psusi: wow, no, I didn't | 04:38 |
| elmo | Kamion: ok, thanks | 04:39 |
| psusi | pitti: I'm looking for ideas on how to make the hal fdi policy look up the type field from the track info on the disc and key on that... think that's possible? | 04:39 |
| zyga | org.debian.DConf.TextInput :-) | 04:39 |
| zyga | Kamion: I see :) | 04:39 |
| zyga | (then various daemons/services) could implement that interface and spawn text based ui or gui :) | 04:39 |
| Kamion | zyga: I don't disagree that something involving dbus would be the right solution long-term, but I just don't have time | 04:39 |

| lamont-away | --> morgue | 05:03 |
| psusi | hrm.... what's that url then? ;) | 05:03 |
| lamont-away | morgue == everything that was ever in the archive, but isn't now. | 05:03 |
| Kamion | psusi: people have abused the word "morgue" in a confusing way, which gave you that impression | 05:03 |
| Kamion | that's why I wish people would just say "remove" when they mean "remove from the archive" rather than inventing new inaccurate verbs | 05:03 |
| lamont-away | psusi: morgue.ubuntu.com is frozen as of ~april 2005, which kinda limits its usefulness these days | 05:04 |
| psusi | yea... so is there an active usefull morgue? | 05:04 |
| lamont-away | psusi: not that I know of that is publicly reachable | 05:04 |

| Kamion | that's the amount installed into the archive | 05:05 |
| psusi | total, or new on that day? | 05:05 |
| Kamion | total | 05:05 |
| Kamion | I mean, each time a package gets installed, the size gets increased | 05:06 |
| psusi | hrm.... only 1 gig as of today? | 05:06 |
| Keybuk | no, that means 1 gig got added today | 05:06 |
| Kamion | neither | 05:06 |
| Keybuk | bah | 05:06 |
| psusi | 1 gig worth of new packages today? holy shit! | 05:06 |
| Keybuk | 1 gig got removed today | 05:06 |
| Kamion | no, STOP | 05:06 |
| === psusi is confused | ||
| Kamion | 1GB of packages got installed by kelly, the program that installs .debs, source packages, and so on into the pool | 05:06 |
| Kamion | it doesn't mean net increase or decrease of the total size of the pool | 05:07 |
| Kamion | (because removals aren't counted there) | 05:07 |
| psusi | what's the pool? and how much is in the archive? | 05:07 |
| Kamion | psusi: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/ | 05:07 |
| Kamion | those figures are purely turnover | 05:07 |
| Keybuk | the pool is what the developers piss in | 05:07 |
| Keybuk | uh, I mean, ... :p | 05:07 |
| Kamion | psusi: 16:00 < Kamion> for comparison, the archive proper is 144073008 /srv/ftp.no-name-yet.com/ftp | 05:07 |
| psusi | lol | 05:07 |
| mdz | mvo: what's the reason for notification-daemon->notify-daemon? | 05:08 |
| psusi | that is kb? so the archive is ~144 gb? | 05:08 |
| Kamion | psusi: yes | 05:08 |
| psusi | wow... that's a bit larger than I expected | 05:08 |
| pitti | hi mdz | 05:09 |
| lamont-away | psusi: and smaller than I expected by a shade | 05:09 |
| mvo | mdz: upstream changed the name | 05:09 |
| psusi | oh, that's for all releases, not just dapper right? | 05:09 |
| Kamion | Diziet: taking 2005-11 as a reasonably normal month when we weren't all off on holiday, total turnover was 28482KB, so you shouldn't have to buy a new disk | 05:09 |
| Kamion | psusi: yes | 05:10 |
| psusi | ahh... ok... | 05:10 |
| Kamion | er, 28482MB, duh | 05:10 |
| psusi | 28 gigs of new packages in a month? wow | 05:10 |
| lamont-away | Kamion: it's those wonderful weeks when kernel, toolchain, and oo.o all upload twice. :0) | 05:11 |
| lamont-away | psusi: those 28GB were probably accompanied by 27+GB moving to the morgue. | 05:11 |
| Kamion | Diziet: if you skip some architectures, it'll of course be considerably less | 05:11 |
| psusi | lamont-away: but the morgue is no longer active? | 05:12 |
| lamont-away | Kamion: those are jackass numbers? | 05:12 |
| Kamion | psusi: morgue.ubuntu.com isn't (the mirror), but the master morgue on jackass certainly is | 05:12 |
| lamont-away | psusi: the visible morgue is not current. | 05:12 |
| Kamion | lamont-away: yeah, from /srv/ftp.no-name-yet.com/log/ | 05:12 |
| lamont-away | ok. | 05:12 |
| xhaker | hey.. somehow.. a new version of initscripts showed up for upgrade.. i don't even see the source package for that on dapper-changes and it breaks the shutdown procedure | 05:12 |
| lamont-away | so those include all 6 architectures | 05:12 |
| Kamion | and a hacked copy of saffron | 05:12 |
| psusi | ohh... why is the active morgue not publically accessible? | 05:12 |
| Kamion | psusi: we just did this | 05:12 |
| lamont-away | psusi: ran out of disk space. | 05:12 |
| psusi | ohh... so will be be public at some point? | 05:13 |
| Kamion | I think we've just encountered the middle of this conversation. | 05:13 |

| dmk | Riddell: there has been problem with cups 1.2 and kde in fedora | 05:32 |
| xhaker | Keybuk, what package is it in? binary please | 05:32 |
| Keybuk | PostgreSQL is my shutdown hate | 05:32 |
| Keybuk | xhaker: sysvinit | 05:32 |
| pitti | Nafallo: cupsd is incredibly hard to kill :( | 05:32 |
| Riddell | pitti: it works fine as long as you have a printer setup but if you start with a fresh install and no printers set up it doesn't connect | 05:32 |
| psusi | pitti: ohh.. say... I've noticed people complaining lately about removable media, most notably, usb memory sticks, not being properly unmounted due to the icon vanishing right away when they choose eject, but the syncing continues in the background | 05:32 |
| pitti | Keybuk: ? | 05:32 |
| Keybuk | xhaker: actually, binarywise might be sysv-rc | 05:33 |
| Nafallo | hmm | 05:33 |
| Keybuk | pitti: if postgresql isn't running, but there's a pid file lying around, it waits a metric week before letting the shutdown finish | 05:33 |
| psusi | pitti: have any thoughts as to how to fix that? I'm thinking some kind of progress indicator during the sync would be nice... but I don't think the kernel provides any means of getting that kind of info | 05:33 |

| pitti | Keybuk: can you please file a Debian bug? | 05:34 |
| pitti | Keybuk: (postgresql-common) | 05:35 |
| Keybuk | bah, filing debian bugs is such hard work | 05:35 |
| psusi | I htink it is caused by the kernel removing the entry from /proc/mounts before the sync is done... I'm not sure if that can be considered a bug in the kernel or not | 05:35 |
| pitti | Keybuk: hm? it's so much easier than filing an Ubuntu bug, at least for me | 05:35 |
| pitti | Keybuk: s/easier/faster/ | 05:35 |

| === Diziet finishes fiddling with the mirror. I think that'll work now. | ||
| psusi | pitti: I think a simple workaround to the problem would be to first remount the filesystem as r/o, then umount it.. that would keep the icon there while the dirty pages are flushed.. might be worth considering if a better solution is taking too long | 05:41 |
| pitti | psusi: unmount waits until sync is complete, too | 05:42 |
| === herzi [n=herzi@d079218.adsl.hansenet.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| pitti | psusi: I think the problem is rather that g-vfs calls pumount asynchronously and doesn't wait until it's finished before removing the drive | 05:43 |
| psusi | pitti: umount does, but the problem is that the kernel immediately removes the entry from the list in /proc, causing gnome-vfs to remove the icon... I believe... doing a remount first will keep the icon until the dirty pages are flushed, then it's safe to umount | 05:43 |
| psusi | I don't htink so because you can umount it from the command line and the icon goes away immediately... I believe it is in response to what the kernel lists in /proc/mounts | 05:44 |
| psusi | even though the umount blocks for some time | 05:44 |
| pitti | oh, right, I see | 05:44 |
| Keybuk | whoah | 05:45 |
| Keybuk | this libsane stuff is total crack | 05:45 |
| Keybuk | it has a script to convert a usermap into a rules file | 05:45 |
| Keybuk | WHY WHY WHY | 05:45 |
| Diziet | Maybe I need an even more sophisticated fs. cp -al on my local mirror seems to take quite a while. | 05:45 |
| psusi | I'm not sure if it can be considered a kernel bug or not... that it removes the mount from /proc before it is done flushing | 05:45 |
| psusi | but I'm fairly sure that is what causes the icon to go away before the umount completes | 05:45 |

| psusi | it's really annoying when there's a problem writing to the disk and you can't umount the damn thing because the kernel keeps trying to flush the dirty buffers and failing | 05:56 |
| ogra_ibook | umount -l isnt enough for you ? | 05:56 |

| seb128 | $ bzr get sftp://chinstrap.ubuntu.com/home/warthogs/archives/seeds.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/seeds/dapper | 06:29 |
| seb128 | bzr: ERROR: Not a branch: sftp://chinstrap.ubuntu.com/home/warthogs/archives/seeds.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/seeds/dapper | 06:29 |
| Kamion | I think it's a bzr bug, best ask on #bzr | 06:29 |
| seb128 | k, thanks | 06:30 |
| Kamion | I just haven't upgraded my currently-working daily build of bzr from a month or two ago ... | 06:30 |
| Kamion | what do you need to change? | 06:30 |
| pitti | Keybuk: you want to motivate us to get up at 3 am? :) | 06:30 |
| seb128 | right, works with the dapper version | 06:30 |
| seb128 | s/xchat/xchat-gnome | 06:31 |
| pitti | seb128, Kamion: no, it's actually a bug fix | 06:31 |
| seb128 | and list avahi-daemon | 06:31 |
| Kamion | oh, if you've got a checkout with the dapper version then go ahead | 06:31 |
| pitti | seb128, Kamion: try with ... .com/%2Fhome/warthogs | 06:31 |
| seb128 | yeah, seems to be fine with dapper version | 06:31 |
| seb128 | pitti: hum, why? | 06:32 |
| pitti | seb128: the sftp:// specification says that the URL is relative to the home dir | 06:32 |
| pitti | seb128: so sftp://host/foo refers to ~/foo, not to /foo | 06:32 |
| seb128 | ah | 06:32 |
| pitti | seb128: older bzr versions didn't respect that | 06:32 |
| ajmitch | which really does get annoying | 06:32 |
| === Kamion thinks the specification's insane, but there you go | ||
| === ajmitch came across that same sftp issue a couple of days ago | ||
| Mithrandir | you don't have to escape the /, though. sftp://host//wherever should work | 06:33 |
| jbailey | Yup, just double the / | 06:33 |
| pitti | Mithrandir: maybe, I just followed the advice in the bug report | 06:33 |

| Mithrandir | it's utterly insane. | 06:33 |
| Mithrandir | or arcane | 06:34 |
| jbailey | But who is to blame? | 06:34 |
| jbailey | mpool is his name! | 06:34 |
| jbailey | (sorry, I'll stop the rap now) | 06:34 |
| Mithrandir | he wrote the sftp spec? | 06:35 |
| pitti | http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=322394, btw | 06:35 |
| jbailey | AFAIK, the IETF spec wasn't actually approved | 06:35 |
| jbailey | It's just better than nothing. | 06:35 |
| pitti | it's not a bzr bug, but that's where jamesh pointed to | 06:35 |
| pitti | http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-secsh-scp-sftp-ssh-uri-03.txt <- spec | 06:36 |

| === pitti shakes his head about gnome's naming scheme; -plugins-ugly, libsexy, ... | ||
| Kamion | pitti: libwnck | 06:50 |
| Diziet | Firstly, you didn't fix up the transition yet, did you ? I mean, where you can end up with both directories because of dpkg/symlink transition issues ? | 06:50 |
| Diziet | Secondly, these links are needed for the embedders, not for the libnss/libnspr users, right ? | 06:50 |
| pitti | I think libaqbanking-plugins-libgwenhywfar17 is my most favourite package name, though | 06:50 |
| seb128 | rofl, that's a real package | 06:51 |
| Mithrandir | pitti: looks like somebody who has taken my advice of using pwgen-generated names to heart. | 06:51 |
| pitti | I couldn't type that without tab completion... | 06:51 |
| ijuz | Keybuk: i tried it, on a 2 Ghz Athlon XP the decompression of the packages on the breezy cd (compressed with lzma) took 107 sec that results in about 15 MB/s of decompressed data; memory usage is sligtly over 8 MB when you compress with 8 MB dictionary | 06:51 |
| dholbach | Diziet: I didn't think of the transition issue, when i added the symlink. Kamion told me afterwards. About your second point: I don't know - aren't embedders libns{s,pr} users? :-) | 06:53 |
| dholbach | Diziet: Somebody, I think it was Kamion, gave me a small script for the transition, let me try to find it and send it to you in a query. | 06:54 |
| === ogra_ [n=ogra@p5089DCCF.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Diziet | dh: Yes, embedders are libns{s,pr} users. | 06:54 |
| Diziet | But libnss/nspr users just look in the .pc file which has the /usr/include/mozilla path and should just work. | 06:55 |
| Diziet | It's the embedders (and the firefox binary itself) which look in /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox. | 06:55 |
| Keybuk | pitti: if I'm getting up, you are | 06:55 |
| Diziet | (It's a bit schizoid because the ffox build system wasn't meant to do this.) | 06:55 |

| Diziet | transition script> 'sok, I can roll my own. | 06:55 |

| pitti | Keybuk: I'm already afraid enough of JaneW's whip :) | 06:56 |

| Riddell | pitti: yo | 07:02 |
| Kamion | dieman: I think that got fixed eventually upstream, but it took a while | 07:02 |
| pitti | Riddell: I'm currently reviewing the patch, and I will do the patching and exploit testing tomorrow | 07:02 |
| Kamion | grep was using the libc multibyte functions, which were a bit too generic and slow for what it was doing; Markus Kuhn mentions the issue on one of his Unicode pages | 07:03 |
| Riddell | pitti: ok, need me to do anything? | 07:03 |
| pitti | Riddell: however, since this is really not funny any more, maybe you could build koffice and kpdf against poppler in dapper? | 07:03 |
| Kamion | http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/unicode.html#mod | 07:03 |
| pitti | Riddell: it's really pretty easy, you just have to tickle the build systems a bit; it was pretty easy for tetex-bin and xpdf-utils | 07:03 |
| Riddell | hmm | 07:03 |
| pitti | Riddell: using /usr/include/poppler and linking against -lpoppler is all it should take | 07:04 |
| Riddell | if we get libgs.so in we can use okular which is the kpdf replacement that uses poppler | 07:04 |
| pitti | Riddell: well, maybe do some small adaptions (s/GString/GooString/) | 07:04 |
| Kamion | oh, crap, it's tonight's meeting that's 2am | 07:04 |
| martink | kpdf has some enhancements to the Xpdf code that are not in poppler yet (or so its author says) | 07:04 |
| pitti | Riddell: I leave that to you :) I Just wanted to point out the possibility | 07:04 |
| Kamion | can somebody send an ubuntu-devel-announce@ reminder please? it's a bit late, but might help | 07:05 |

| psusi | pitti: do you think it would be rather easy to patch pumount to remount r/o first, then really unmount? or would that not be so simple? | 07:35 |
| pitti | psusi: that's what I had in mind when we do that | 07:38 |
| psusi | cool... the progress bar would be nice ( especially if it were actually accurate ) but the remount should be a much simpler fix... if it is a simple bug fix, can't it even be back ported to breezy? | 07:39 |
| pitti | psusi: let's see, maybe the gnome guys will figure out a nice progress bar or sth | 07:40 |
| pitti | psusi: I doubt that it will be backported, but for dapper it's an easy alternative, right | 07:40 |
| psusi | well, like the author of gumount said, the kernel doesn't export enough information | 07:40 |
| pitti | right, progress bar is probably hard | 07:40 |
| pitti | but at least a warning dialog would be sufficient | 07:40 |
| psusi | hell, as long as the icon doesn't vanish until the flush is done, that would keep people from yanking the drives early and corrupting their data | 07:41 |
| pitti | (well, more of a 'monolog' :) ) | 07:41 |

| fabbione | :P | 09:57 |
| maswan | work has $HOME in afs, shared between amd64, i386, AIX.. hmm.. no sparc/solaris anymore though | 09:57 |
| maswan | I'd consider it a fairly big bug to have things break because you switch arch | 09:58 |

| elmo | yeah, I'd assume it would work, but I've never tried it before, esp. on a desktop, so I thought I'd ask | 09:59 |
| fabbione | elmo: are you just tarring up the data? or moving the disk? | 09:59 |
| elmo | rsyncing from backup | 10:00 |
| elmo | I'm trashing an amd64 laptop, reinstalling it as i386 | 10:00 |

| fabbione | elmo: do you have userland or kernel problems? | 10:02 |
| elmo | fabbione: userland, need proprietary crap to work | 10:03 |
| fabbione | elmo: as proprietary drivers for the kernel i assume | 10:03 |
| elmo | no, proprietary userland | 10:03 |
| fabbione | ah | 10:03 |
| fabbione | ok | 10:03 |
| fabbione | elmo: than let me give you a suggestion | 10:03 |
| fabbione | install whatever release you want with standard kernel | 10:04 |
| fabbione | grab the the proper amd64 kernel .deb | 10:04 |
| fabbione | dpkg -x blabla.deb . | 10:04 |
| fabbione | dpkg -e blabla.deb | 10:04 |
| fabbione | in DEBIAN/* there are only 3 or 4 references to amd64 | 10:04 |
| fabbione | that changed to i386 | 10:04 |
| fabbione | + a dpkg-deb -b | 10:05 |
| fabbione | will give you a nice amd64 kernel for an i386 userland .deb :) | 10:05 |
| fabbione | elmo: sounds crack, but it works perfectly | 10:05 |
| fabbione | and you get all the hw support from amd64 with 32 bit userland | 10:05 |
| ogra | oh, thats nice to know ... | 10:06 |
| maswan | or just not bother about it, sounds unlikely that you need 64-bit adressing on a laptop | 10:06 |
| elmo | fabbione: hmm, nice idea, but I'm going for maximum stability + simplicity, as this laptop's going on the road with a new-to-linux-user and needs to Just Work | 10:06 |
| sivang | elmo: is that a light weight laptop? | 10:06 |
| maswan | and the rest of it is just performance | 10:06 |
| ogra | my fans always freakout if i use a 32bit os on this amd64 lappie | 10:06 |
| === sivang wanted to get one sometime ago | ||
| fabbione | elmo: ok.. in that case it makes sense, be sure the i386 kernel can control fans and so on.. | 10:06 |
| fabbione | maswan: well. not only. there are some chipsets that are not supported by x86 | 10:07 |
| fabbione | the one that are specific for x86_64 only | 10:07 |
| fabbione | like dunno.. thermal control? | 10:07 |
| ogra | yup | 10:07 |
| fabbione | cpu_freq? | 10:07 |
| fabbione | otherwise the battery on that laptop will last approx 10 minutes | 10:07 |
| fabbione | elmo: i think we will ship such a kernel in universe.. BenC and I didn't agree yet on how to build it :) | 10:08 |
| ogra | mine hovers 1m above the ground on i386 kernel... i never tried it on byttery | 10:08 |
| spacey_ki | :) | 10:08 |
| spacey_ki | quite impressive with that weight :) | 10:08 |
| ogra | heh | 10:09 |
| === ogra really hopes elmo has no acer in front of him | ||
| elmo | no, it's a compaq | 10:09 |
| elmo | presario v2200 or something | 10:09 |
| maswan | fabbione: oh, I didn't know that | 10:09 |
| ogra | ah, that leaves some hope | 10:09 |
| elmo | I'll check the fans etc. work once it's installed | 10:09 |
| fabbione | maswan: ehehe | 10:09 |
| elmo | wow, that's impressively confused | 10:13 |
| elmo | the wireless stack thinks the pcmcia card is both eth1 _and_ eth2 | 10:13 |

| dilinger | let's hear it for confused kernels | 10:16 |
| fabbione | elmo: is that an aironet/cisco card? | 10:17 |
| psusi | rofl | 10:18 |
| psusi | ohh, that's probably an anti collision check | 10:18 |
| elmo | fabbione: yeah it is | 10:19 |
| fabbione | elmo: i was that problem only with the airo pci version of the card and only with .15. I didn't have time to bisect the kernel, but unload and reload the module seems to do the trick | 10:20 |
| fabbione | and it doesn't even happen all the time | 10:20 |
| elmo | it didn't happen with an amd64 kernel :( | 10:20 |
| fabbione | s/was/saw | 10:20 |
| fabbione | yes.. i386 only it seems | 10:20 |
| fabbione | ppc doesn't do that either | 10:20 |
| elmo | yeah, this is the cisco from my powerbook, and I never saw it there | 10:21 |
| fabbione | elmo: i guess that one is .12, isn't it? | 10:21 |
| === fabbione wishes elmo will say it's .15 | ||
| ogra | for a newbie on the road ? | 10:22 |
| fabbione | ogra: i think that laptop is new enough that needs .15 | 10:22 |
| ogra | but that breaks a lot with breezy ... | 10:23 |
| maswan | it's just a sign that the release cycle is way too long, it should be a new release every 3 weeks! | 10:24 |
| === maswan ducks | ||
| fabbione | ahah | 10:24 |
| fabbione | actually releasing every month or two is almost doable, if you can live without new features and no new crack :P | 10:25 |
| ogra | 3 weeks is fine, then the freezes would only be 2 weeks max :) | 10:25 |
| lifeless | moin | 10:26 |
| maswan | fabbione: actually, I'd love to see a breezy backport of 2.6.15. we currently run a hacked-together kernel.org on our workstations, but it lacks some stuff, like alsa. :) | 10:26 |

| maswan | fabbione: flight-2 wasn't quite up to it for my main workstation at work. :) | 10:26 |
| fabbione | maswan: you can't.. you will need too much from dapper to make it worth a backport | 10:27 |
| maswan | fabbione: yeah, I know | 10:27 |
| maswan | fabbione: that's why it's a kernel.org and not dapper kernel | 10:27 |
| fabbione | ehm... | 10:27 |
| fabbione | well whatever you say :) | 10:27 |
| maswan | "it's" - the thing we run now | 10:28 |
| maswan | would have been neat if there was an ubuntu 2.6.15 to run though | 10:28 |
| maswan | but I'll guess we'll just wait until dapper releases | 10:28 |
| fabbione | iirc the udev requirements between ubuntu and kernel.org are the same | 10:29 |
| maswan | ah | 10:29 |
| === sivang uses dapper on his workstation since ~month now, all is good except for evo disappearing one day, and coming back after :) | ||

| Burgwork | how do I debug gnome-session hanging? | 10:33 |
| maswan | fabbione: fujitsu-siemens athlon64 x2 with a new enough sis chipset to need 2.6.15 to find the sata disk | 10:33 |
| psusi | can mutt generate mbox indexes, or does it have to read and parse the entire thing every time like pine? that doesn't work too well on 50 MB mboxes | 10:34 |
| fabbione | maswan: ahhhhhh ok | 10:34 |
| maswan | fabbione: the bundled fedora core 4 dvd didn't install either. :) | 10:34 |
| mdke | psusi, #ubuntu can help | 10:34 |
| fabbione | maswan: that's something similar to what i had to do to install my ppc | 10:34 |
| psusi | heh... sivang mentioned he uses mutt... figure'd pose the question... I don't think it can, and i"m happy with thunderbird... was just curious | 10:35 |
| maswan | fabbione: we just hacked together something out of kernel.org sources though, and it works. lacks some stuff, like alsa sound and possibly hal/dbus stuff. and splashy thingies. but it works. :) | 10:35 |
| ogra | Burgwork, easiest is probably to run a failsafe terminal session and run gnome-session manually | 10:35 |
| ogra | Burgwork, or run it with gdb if you have a -dbg package around | 10:36 |
| fabbione | maswan: you could try installing .15 from dapper on one of them. | 10:36 |
| maswan | fabbione: We have installed flight-2 on them. Installing the dapper kernel seemed to want to pull in a bit too much from dapper though. | 10:37 |
| maswan | fabbione: we have test-installed flight-2 I mean | 10:37 |
| fabbione | ok | 10:37 |

| lamont | iz necessary | 11:42 |
| fabbione | ok | 11:42 |
| lamont | it's always been there, but I cleaned up a bunch of bugs by merging the files | 11:42 |
| fabbione | i think it would be a good idea to see 2 slightly different messages | 11:43 |
| lamont | so now hwclockfirst.sh is a sed command to generate it from the other | 11:43 |
| lamont | fabbione: ok. file a bug in bz and assign it to me? (or at least make me a cc) | 11:43 |
| fabbione | lamont: sure :) | 11:43 |
| fabbione | it's nothing urgent | 11:43 |
| lamont | what was the postfix reload error? | 11:43 |
| fabbione | for people used to read what happens at boot, it seems an error | 11:44 |
| fabbione | lamont: dunno... it's masked by the boot thingy and lsb | 11:44 |
| fabbione | it happens immediatly after network comes up | 11:44 |
| fabbione | so i *think* it's that script you put in /etc/network/if-up.d or something | 11:44 |
| fabbione | i assume the error is due to the fact that postfix isn't running et | 11:45 |
| fabbione | yet | 11:45 |
| fabbione | and it attempts to stop/start it again | 11:45 |
| lamont | fabbione: actually, the old hwclockfirst.sh didn't print anything | 11:45 |
