| seb128 | it doesn't like the 'grp:alts_toggle' option combined with 2 keymaps | 12:26 |
| elmo | jbailey: say what now? | 12:26 |
| jbailey | elmo: I had the problem that I install in french and had to beat it to give me US layout. | 12:26 |
| seb128 | that's bugzilla http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=15372 | 12:26 |

| elmo | oh the one half the world is Cced on, including me, I remember that bug | 12:26 |
| elmo | jbailey: how does installing in french open up more keymaps? | 12:27 |
| jbailey | elmo: No, it seemed to default to French. | 12:27 |
| jbailey | elmo: Which was particularily annoying. | 12:27 |

| ajmitch | marcin`: I love having the date shown, it saves me wondering what month it is ;) | 02:28 |
| marcin` | ajmitch: but you always can turn it on... | 02:28 |
| Burgundavia | marcin`, options are nice, better defaults are king | 02:28 |
| ajmitch | but you can turn it off... | 02:28 |
| ajmitch | as Burgundavia says, it's a matter of sane defaults | 02:29 |
| ajmitch | I'm crazier than most & have the clock on 2 panels, 1 per screen | 02:29 |
| ajmitch | but I doubt we'd have that as default | 02:29 |
| marcin` | ok then I know what should you all do :) | 02:29 |
| marcin` | write small script that will install with gnome-panel and will report to some remote sever | 02:30 |
| marcin` | what users got on their desktops :) | 02:30 |

| ajmitch | I looked at them | 02:31 |
| hunger | ajmitch: Just added proper patches. | 02:32 |
| marcin` | kind of - something simmilar to ubuntu popularity-contest package | 02:32 |
| marcin` | rotfllll :) | 02:33 |
| marcin` | because of this discussion I turned on date on my clock applet | 02:33 |
| ogra_ibook | mdz, vagrant has some nice modifications to multiarch and some other fixes http://llama.freegeek.org/~vagrant/bzr-archives/ltsp/ubuntufixes/ | 02:34 |
| marcin` | to see how it looks and.. found "UTC time" option :) | 02:34 |

| seb128 | Kamion: np | 02:54 |
| ajmitch | hi pitti | 02:54 |
| SEJeff | hunger, I have 0 experience with pam-mount so I can't really tell you. I would just like to see some sort of option in the installer to encrypt each users files to protect files incase of laptop theft | 02:55 |
| mdz | 5 minutes | 02:55 |
| pitti | psusi: hm, no idea, I never saw such a rule | 02:56 |
| === Keybuk [n=scott@descent.netsplit.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| hunger | SEJeff: It can be used to mount an encrypted filesystem. | 02:56 |
| psusi | pitti, do you know of any documentation for the policy file format, or am I just going to have to dive into the source some more? ;) | 02:57 |
| SEJeff | hunger, an encrypted filesystem... thats it's limitation. libpam-encfs encrypts per user, not per filesystem | 02:57 |
| hunger | SEJeff: It is actually rather comftable to use once you have set it up. Works no the fs only though. | 02:57 |
| hunger | SEJeff: All users are on a separate LVM volume here... | 02:58 |
| SEJeff | hunger, so libpam-encfs has a huge anvantage on a multi-user system over it. Unless you make /home/$USER a different volume. that can get ugly | 02:58 |
| SEJeff | hunger, I use lvm too, but that is suboptimal | 02:58 |
| psusi | hunger, outch.... what a pain | 02:58 |
| hunger | SEJeff: How does it protect the user's keyphrases. | 02:58 |
| hunger | psusi: Well, there is only me on this laptop plus a couple of test users:-) | 02:59 |
| psusi | yea... that means you have to allocate a fixed amount of space to each user... and that filesystem will tend to get fragmented on account of being mostly full | 02:59 |

| infinity | No, but they probably should. | 04:36 |
| daniels | how? | 04:37 |
| infinity | The thing is that the nvidia and fglrx packages build from LRM descended from the seperate Debian packaging efforts of each. nvidia did the glx->kernel dependency, fglrx didn't. | 04:37 |
| jdub | oh, yeah, i meant technically not packagearily :-) | 04:37 |
| jdub | they definitely don't with our packages | 04:37 |
| daniels | 'yes' | 04:37 |
| infinity | Oh. Technically, they do. Yes. | 04:37 |
| jdub | right | 04:37 |
| jdub | hard to do that without pissing people off, though, i guess | 04:38 |
| infinity | dpkgily, they don't, but probably should do like the nvidia drivers attempt to (though it's a poor solution anyway, since you can have multiple modules packages installed, providing different module versions, and no guarantee you're booting the right kernel) | 04:38 |

| infinity | seth_k|lappy: No, the fglrx problem is a different issue (and will be fixed in the next upload) | 04:39 |

| daniels | or Recommends | 04:40 |
| Burgundavia | daniels, what sort of debug information do you need? | 04:40 |
| infinity | It's a hard dependency in the nvidia case, IIRC. | 04:40 |
| infinity | Depends: nvidia-kernel-1.0.8174 | 04:40 |
| daniels | Burgundavia: LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose glxinfo, look at the first few lines and see if it can't find i810_dri, or if XF86QueryDRICapable returns false, or something else | 04:40 |
| daniels | infinity: ugh | 04:40 |
| infinity | The theory being that if you installed the glx package, you probably also built the module package. | 04:40 |
| infinity | It's always been like that. | 04:41 |
| Burgundavia | daniels, I will file a bug tomorrow | 04:41 |
| infinity | (note that it suggests nvidia-kernel-source as a big blinking hint as to how to make the kernel-module package) | 04:41 |

| SEJeff | infinity, I'll reboot in a few days | 05:57 |
| infinity | SEJeff: If so, download this ( http://people.ubuntu.com/~adconrad/initramfs-tools_0.40ubuntu9_all.deb ), install it, run "sudo update-initramfs -u -k 2.6.15-11-686" and reboot. The new kernel should boot fine now. | 05:58 |
| infinity | SEJeff: Updates won't magically fix your broken initramfs if you're booted into your old kernel, so you'll pretty much have to fix it with a manual "update-initramfs" invocation at some point. | 05:59 |
| infinity | (Cause initramfs-tools updates will just update your current RUNNING kernel, which is probably -10) | 05:59 |
| SEJeff | infinity, yes, I did that before when the first 2.6.15 fiasco happened | 05:59 |

| desrt | daniels; as a direct result of me not using dri during the breezy release cycle dri with my videocard was broken for breezy final | 06:05 |
| desrt | daniels; everything needs to be tested. | 06:06 |
| daniels | the fglrx thing? | 06:06 |

| desrt | i see. | 07:39 |
| desrt | time-only is best | 07:39 |
| desrt | panel space is precious | 07:39 |
| Burgundavia | desrt, umm, how so? | 07:40 |
| desrt | anyone in their right mind moves the bottom task-switcher to the top panel so it's best to save space | 07:40 |
| Burgundavia | desrt, most users never change defaults | 07:40 |
| lifeless | what about people with integrated minds ? | 07:40 |
| desrt | right. as i said. | 07:40 |
| desrt | :) | 07:40 |
| desrt | alas. it is getting late. (twilight to starlight) | 07:40 |
| desrt | farewell and goodnight! | 07:40 |
| vuntz | desrt: dude, you can't let me be flamed alone! | 07:41 |
| lifeless | anyhoo, I only change things when some update borks my settings, which I got happy with in 98 or so | 07:41 |
| desrt | vuntz; tell me. where is your window switcher? | 07:41 |
| vuntz | desrt: I don't have a window list. Just the window selector in the top right corner | 07:41 |
| desrt | how macos classic. | 07:41 |
| desrt | i went through that phase too | 07:42 |
| desrt | your panel space is -not- at a premium. why do you want to eliminate the date? | 07:42 |
| vuntz | I used to have a window list in a autohide, but I didn't use it, so I kill it | 07:42 |
| vuntz | desrt: never found it useful and the default format is ugly, imho | 07:42 |
| desrt | so fix it? | 07:43 |
| vuntz | default date format | 07:43 |
| vuntz | fix it would make it too long | 07:43 |
| vuntz | but that's just my opinion. That's why the removal is a test :-) | 07:43 |
| desrt | oh well | 07:43 |
| whiprush | let's be honest people. We want the date back because we're all too drunk most of the time to know what day it is. | 07:43 |
| desrt | nobody here has any right to flame you | 07:43 |
| desrt | after all, you're Upstream :) | 07:43 |
| ajmitch | desrt: and upstream never makes mistakes? :) | 07:44 |
| ajmitch | whiprush: pretty much | 07:44 |
| vuntz | ajmitch: exactly | 07:44 |
| vuntz | :-) | 07:44 |
| whiprush | as an aside, today when I booted my dapper laptop the ntp thing on boot didn't work | 07:45 |
| whiprush | so I was at work until 9pm, thinking it was 7pm | 07:45 |
| whiprush | boy ... did that suck. | 07:45 |
| ajmitch | aw | 07:45 |
| vuntz | ajmitch: you know, I always blame Ubuntu when replying to bug reports ;-) | 07:45 |
| Burgundavia | whiprush, ouch. They moved the ntp thing to inside ifup | 07:45 |
| desrt | 'packaging error. file downstream. FIXED -> INVALID' | 07:45 |
| ajmitch | vuntz: sure, blame seb & daniel :) | 07:45 |
| vuntz | (and I blame GNOME upstream in Malone/Ubuntu bugzilla) | 07:45 |
| whiprush | Burgundavia: looks like I was one apt-get upgrade behind, heh. | 07:46 |

| fabbione | Lathiat, usb install DOES work | 12:30 |
| Lathiat | oh, cool | 12:30 |
| fabbione | i need to check a few things | 12:30 |
| Lathiat | i thought there was a problem | 12:30 |
| fabbione | one: can it boot? | 12:30 |
| Lathiat | like not waiting logn enough for root to appear | 12:30 |
| Lathiat | and then fails to boot | 12:30 |
| fabbione | two: if i move the disk and change the name how bad is going to die | 12:30 |
| fabbione | three: how much it takes to fix all of the above | 12:31 |
| Lathiat | *and* change the name? | 12:31 |
| fabbione | the problem you mention should be already fixed | 12:31 |
| fabbione | Lathiat, if you install with one usb device, that one will be named sda for example | 12:31 |
| fabbione | if you add another device | 12:31 |
| Lathiat | ah right | 12:31 |
| fabbione | you have no guarantee that it will still be called sda | 12:31 |
| doko | who does take care of php in ubuntu/edubuntu? ogra? | 12:31 |
| fabbione | so fstab becomes .. pointless | 12:31 |
| Lathiat | thats the point of LABEL based mounting yeah? | 12:31 |
| Lathiat | LABEL=/ / | 12:31 |
| ogra_ibook | doko, infinity | 12:31 |
| Lathiat | can also be an issue if you have two / | 12:32 |
| fabbione | we need something more than just LABEL | 12:32 |
| Lathiat | could use some kind of random id i guess | 12:32 |
| Lathiat | hrm ok | 12:32 |
| fabbione | Lathiat, read the specs | 12:32 |
| ogra_ibook | if he didnt drop it out of frustration :) | 12:32 |
| Mithrandir | Lathiat: all devices have an uuid | 12:32 |
| fabbione | s/devices/filesystems | 12:32 |
| fabbione | and not all of them | 12:33 |
| doko | infinity: what will be the php "default" for dapper? | 12:33 |
| === ogra_ibook guesses 5 will stay the default | ||
| infinity | PHP 5, as it was in breezy. | 12:34 |
| fabbione | hey infinity | 12:34 |
| doko | infinity: 5.0 or 5.1? | 12:36 |
| infinity | 5.1.x, I assume. | 12:37 |

| Keybuk | Lathiat: the initramfs will wait up to 3 minutes for scsi disks to settle | 12:46 |
| Keybuk | where scsi includes usb storage, firewire and sata these days | 12:46 |
| Lathiat | ah ok | 12:47 |
| Mithrandir | deboostrap should install the debs in file-system order. :-P | 12:48 |
| Keybuk | if only parallel-ide would hurry up and get libata'd | 12:48 |
| Keybuk | then we could do away with the nasty CASE/ESAC | 12:49 |
| Keybuk | /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/init-premount/udev is farrrr too choicey for my liking | 12:49 |
| ogra | Keybuk, btw, could you extend the usplash timeout dynamically in such cases (scsi delay) ? | 12:49 |
| Keybuk | ogra: I'm going to ask infinity for a "yeah, I'm still alive" PING command to reset the timeout | 12:50 |
| Keybuk | I haven't got around to it yet though | 12:50 |
| infinity | There is one. | 12:50 |
| ogra | that'd be cool | 12:50 |
| Keybuk | oh, there is? | 12:50 |
| infinity | Oddly enough, PING works. | 12:51 |

| dooglus | you've got 'sed' but not 'od'? | 01:08 |
| Kamion | yes | 01:08 |

| Kamion | no | 01:08 |
| dooglus | bc or dc? | 01:08 |
| Kamion | no | 01:08 |
| dooglus | echo $((36#a-10)) $((36#z-10)) | 01:11 |
| dooglus | ==> 0 25 | 01:11 |
| Mithrandir | not in dash | 01:11 |
| dooglus | you don't have bash available? | 01:11 |
| Kamion | yeah, looks like a bashism unfortunately, though it's nifty | 01:11 |
| Kamion | dooglus: this is in the installer. no. | 01:11 |
| Kamion | it's all busybox | 01:12 |
| Kamion | I could write a C helper, but it's massive overkill for figuring out the indexes of IDE/SCSI drives from their device names ... | 01:12 |
| pitti | Kamion: reading the minor device id isn't sufficient? | 01:14 |
| Kamion | pitti: not the partition number - hda -> 0, hdb -> 1, hdc -> 2, etc. | 01:14 |
| Kamion | using device numbers for that is a pain | 01:14 |
| pitti | right, they mix majors and minors | 01:15 |
| === kent [n=kent@h55d210.delphi.afb.lu.se] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| pitti | for IDE controllers at least | 01:15 |
| dooglus | Kamion: how about this: printf "%d\n" "'a" | 01:16 |
| dooglus | prints 97 | 01:16 |
| Mithrandir | yeah, printf + arithmetic should work | 01:16 |
| Kamion | busybox printf doesn't understand that 'a trick | 01:17 |
| Kamion | although good try, I'd forgotten about printf | 01:17 |
| Mithrandir | or just have a map file you can grep | 01:18 |
| Mithrandir | which is just a:0\nb:1\nc:2, etc | 01:18 |
| Mithrandir | silly, but should work | 01:18 |
| dooglus | Kamion: dash's printf does | 01:19 |
| Treenaks | Mithrandir: it's even possible to generate that on the fly | 01:19 |
| dooglus | atoi() { echo $(($(printf "%d" "'$1") - 97)); } | 01:19 |
| Kamion | partman's nasty enough as it is, but if I have to ... | 01:19 |
| Kamion | <cjwatson@cairhien ~>$ busybox printf '%d\n' "'a" | 01:19 |
| Kamion | 'a0 | 01:19 |
| dooglus | Kamion: you said you have 'dash'? | 01:19 |
| Kamion | no | 01:19 |
| Kamion | busybox ash, which is related but not identical | 01:19 |
| dooglus | oh, it was Mithrandir who said that sorry | 01:19 |
| Mithrandir | no, I didn't. I said that $((36#a-10)) didn't work in dash (and thereby wouldn't work in the installer) | 01:20 |
| dooglus | how can I get busybox to try this? | 01:21 |
| Kamion | apt-get install busybox (on dapper) | 01:21 |
| Kamion | or busybox-cvs on breezy | 01:21 |
| Mithrandir | it's in /usr/lib/initramfs-tools/bin/busybox in dapper, at least | 01:21 |
| dooglus | i tried. it told me "After unpacking 422MB disk space will be freed." | 01:21 |
| Mithrandir | Treenaks: sure, that's easy enough to do. | 01:21 |
| dooglus | (on dapper) | 01:21 |
| pitti | dooglus: it's designed to save space :) | 01:22 |
| Kamion | the ' trick you mention is in POSIX so I could add it to busybox | 01:22 |
| Treenaks | we need perl or python in the installer :) | 01:22 |
| Kamion | no, we don't | 01:22 |
| janimo | who can delete unused packages from the archive? | 01:22 |
| pitti | Treenaks: at least you didn't say 'mono' | 01:22 |

| Kamion | Mithrandir: I think it might be a good idea to preseed cdrom-checker/start=true for the check boot option; do you agree? | 03:33 |
| Riddell | pitti: I can confirm that all those PDFs do nasty things, I'll get on with the patches | 03:34 |
| Mithrandir | pitti: excellent, thanks. | 03:35 |
| Mithrandir | Kamion: agreed. | 03:35 |
| Kamion | also a shame that it flickers so much with long filenames due to the dialog box size changing; perhaps it might be a good idea for cdrom-checker to list only the basename | 03:35 |
| Kamion | although I guess that doesn't give you so good an indication of how far through the disk it is | 03:35 |
| Mithrandir | the progress bar should give you that. :-) | 03:36 |
| Kamion | Mithrandir: actually, rather than me doing that preseed in the boot option, perhaps just do it in cdrom-checker-menu | 03:36 |
| Kamion | true that :) | 03:36 |
| Mithrandir | I'll look at it, but not now. | 03:36 |
| Kamion | sure, no rush | 03:36 |
| pitti | Riddell: *all*? bad6 and bad7 were already fixed by the previous patches in xpdf and poppler | 03:36 |

| Riddell | pitti: apparantly poppler with kpdf is not hard, but will add back rendering bugs they've fixed https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=119455 | 04:08 |
| Riddell | pitti: and poppler with kword is hard beause it uses xpdf 2 and poppler is xpdf 3 | 04:08 |
| pitti | 2??? | 04:08 |
| pitti | OMG | 04:08 |
| pitti | Riddell: can't we fix the rendering bugs in poppler then? | 04:09 |
| pitti | and for kword it seems that upstream needs a serious kick then? | 04:09 |
| Riddell | pitti: as that bug says he has trouble getting the other poppler developers to agree to changes | 04:10 |
| Riddell | pitti: and I don't think that import filter for kword has a maintainer | 04:10 |

| Riddell | you would think so | 04:12 |
| Riddell | I don't know the specifics of what he's tried to get in | 04:12 |
| seb128 | that's some subjective rendering difference and they don't agree that's a bug? | 04:12 |

| Riddell | pitti: hmm, the kpdf patch for breezy only fixes bad6 and bad7, the rest are still affected | 04:45 |
| pitti | Riddell: that's what I meant, I had to do a slightly different patch for xpdf and poppler | 04:46 |
| pitti | Riddell: can you please compare it with https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=4247 ? | 04:47 |
| pitti | Riddell: (that patch is relative to the previous patches CVE-2005-3191/2/3) | 04:47 |
| pitti | Riddell: and it's the patch against poppler, but it shouldn't really matter | 04:47 |
| pitti | Riddell: this is the patch I sent to the poppler upstream guys | 04:48 |
| Kamion | pitti: yes, although I'm rather behind since I didn't really follow the last discussion in the TB | 04:48 |
| pitti | Kamion: oh, it's an entirely different topic :) | 04:48 |
| pitti | Kamion: I just fixed a sudo vuln in stables that filter out PERLLIB, PERL5LIB, RUBYPATH, etc. | 04:48 |
| pitti | Kamion: i. e. when granting limited sudo access to perl or ruby scripts, setting these variables to own libs woudl give you full root access | 04:49 |
| pitti | Kamion: for stables I just filtered out a whole bunch of perl, python, ruby, zsh variables, but this is pretty silly | 04:50 |
| pitti | so for dapper I tend to use Joey's approach of a whitelist | 04:50 |
| pitti | http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi/x?bug=342948;msg=20;att=1 | 04:50 |
| pitti | Kamion: i. e. he filters out all but a small set of known good variables | 04:50 |
| === koke [n=koke@ubuntu/member/koke] has left #ubuntu-devel ["Konversation] | ||
| pitti | Kamion: do you see any potential breakage in this? it's too hot for stable updates, but for dapper it coudl be worthwhile | 04:51 |
| pitti | Mithrandir: ^ in case you want to read it, too | 04:53 |
| pitti | slomo: 'check' - what a dull package name... | 04:54 |
| slomo | pitti: not my fault ;) | 04:55 |
| pitti | I know :) | 04:55 |
| Kamion | pitti: it would be real hassle for me; I often do 'SOME_RANDOM_VARIABLE=foo sudo blah' when testing things, and I'd be amazed if I were the only one | 04:56 |
| === Keybuk does | ||
| Kamion | it would piss me off mightily if sudo started filtering that | 04:56 |
| pitti | sudo env VAR=foo bla? | 04:56 |
| pitti | well, anyway, I see the point | 04:56 |
| pitti | but this way it's just playing catchup with programming languages | 04:56 |
| Keybuk | does LD_LIBRARY_PATH=... sudo work? | 04:57 |
| Kamion | I suppose that works, and I can see the argument; but if sudo goes this way it would be nice for it to have a way to disable it if you have sufficient sudoers power | 04:57 |
| pitti | Kamion: bdale changed Debian to use 'reset_env' by default when creating a new /etc/sudoers, but that will probably never apply to us, I guess | 04:57 |
| Kamion | oh, if it's a switch in sudoers then that would be ok | 04:57 |
| Keybuk | *nods* if it's a switch, I can just turn it off <g> | 04:58 |
| Keybuk | or, more likely, train myself to use sudo env instead | 04:58 |
| Keybuk | though doesn't that have exactly the same flaw? | 04:58 |
| Keybuk | oh, I guess you wouldn't give people access to run env :p | 04:59 |
| pitti | Keybuk: yes, all LD_* variables are killed | 04:59 |
| pitti | Keybuk: that would be a feature | 04:59 |
| pitti | Keybuk: with unlimited access, variable filtering is no issue anyway, and with limited access you probably want to keep it limited :) | 05:00 |
| Keybuk | is there any particular reason it filters if you have blanket root anyway? | 05:00 |
| pitti | i. e. not allow to circumvent it | 05:00 |
| pitti | Keybuk: no | 05:00 |
| pitti | Kamion: just if you restrict access to e. g. a Perl script | 05:00 |
| pitti | then creating your own library with the same name as a module that is included by the script, and passing the path to it to PERL5LIB would give you r00t | 05:00 |
| Keybuk | giving most perl scripts any input containing ` gives you root :p | 05:01 |
| pitti | Kamion: do you how and where the initial user is put into sudoers? | 05:01 |
| pitti | Kamion: if we don't use whitelisting, I would at least go with bdale's approach and enable reset_env for new installs | 05:02 |
| Kamion | pitti: formerly passwd.config, now user-setup | 05:02 |
| Kamion | pitti: I don't see the point; the initial user is given ALL=ALL anyway | 05:03 |
| pitti | Kamion: hm, that sounds as if it would create the file before sudo's postinst runs? | 05:03 |
| mdz | Kamion,pitti: I'd say that sudo should filter the environment only if the command is restricted | 05:03 |
| Kamion | no, it's run from prebaseconfig well after the base system is installed | 05:03 |
| pitti | ok | 05:03 |
| pitti | mdz: sudo doesn't support that ATM :( | 05:03 |
| Keybuk | hmm, you said it filters zsh stuff? that would annoy the hell out of me ... I use sudo -s a lot, and expect all my zsh gadgets to work there too | 05:03 |
| pitti | bah, there are just too many ways to shoot yourself in the foot | 05:04 |
| pitti | Keybuk: NULLCMD, READNULLCMD, ZDOTDIR, TMPPREFIX - these are the variables that will now be filtered; would that affect your use case? | 05:05 |
| mdz | pitti: sudo -s will do what he expects unless HOME is changed | 05:05 |
| Keybuk | ZDOTDIR would | 05:06 |
| mdz | Keybuk: you set it to something other than $HOME? | 05:06 |
| Kamion | doko_: gcj-4.0-base promoted | 05:06 |
| Keybuk | mdz: I had problems with sudo changing HOME on me ;) | 05:06 |
| Keybuk | sudo -s would have HOME=/root for some reason | 05:07 |
| Keybuk | which meant all my zsh gadgets went missing | 05:07 |
| Keybuk | it doesn't seem to currently though | 05:07 |
| pitti | Keybuk: but changing HOME is a feature, not a bug... | 05:07 |
| mdz | mizar:[/tmp] sudo -s | 05:07 |
| mdz | Password: | 05:07 |
| mdz | mizar# echo $HOME | 05:07 |
| mdz | /home/mdz | 05:07 |
| mdz | it's always done that | 05:07 |
| janimo | elmo, I still get REJECT from main upload, key C5AA2301. Does it take more time after you enable it? | 05:07 |
| pitti | Keybuk: otherwise you probably want sudo -s, not -i | 05:07 |
| Diziet | For unrestricted sudo you want `really' which is far simpler. For restricted sudo you need userv, because restricted sudo is like a swiss cheese. | 05:07 |
| mdz | -i changes home | 05:07 |
| === Diziet whistles in the wind. | ||
| Keybuk | pitti: I still don't see why sudo feels the need to fuck up my environment if I have effective root access anyway | 05:08 |
| Keybuk | sure, I could put some elaborate hack with ZDOTDIR to run something as root ... | 05:08 |
| Keybuk | ... or I could just sudo and do it | 05:08 |
| pitti | Keybuk: erm, what mdz says; I swapped that | 05:08 |
| mdz | Keybuk: yes, ideally it shouldn't mess with the environment unless you're only privileged to run certain commands | 05:09 |
| mdz | I'm amazed it doesn't work that way already | 05:09 |
| === Hirion [n=hirion@draugr.de] has left #ubuntu-devel [] | ||
| pitti | but such changes are not really appropriate for stable-security... | 05:09 |
| mdz | the fact that it's using a whitelist fills me with dread | 05:10 |

| mdz | er, blacklist | 05:10 |
| Keybuk | but not if you're allowed to run anything ;) | 05:10 |
| Kamion | lamont-away: can you give-back openoffice.org2 please? it only failed due to my libsane screwup | 05:10 |

| pitti | mdz: well, at least I'd like to fix stables soon, and my current patch just extends the blacklist; I think we won't get around with doing even less | 05:12 |
| === pitti runs | ||
| mdz | pitti: yes, for stable | 05:12 |
| mdz | pitti: but we should fix it forever for dapper | 05:12 |
| pitti | mdz: agreed - whitelist for limited access, unfiltered for unlimited access | 05:12 |
| fabbione | Kamion, Keybuk, mdz: can we have a very fast meeting for booting-from-usb ? | 05:12 |

| janimo | elmo, please sync newer thunar from debian (looks like it entered after todays autosync although the date is Jan 4).Anyway it fixes an amd64 FTBFS. thanks | 05:15 |
| elmo | janimo: please stop asking me for no-op syncs | 05:16 |
| elmo | thunar is unmodified, it'll be synced automatically as when the archive can | 05:16 |
| elmo | and try your main upload again, it really should work now | 05:16 |
| janimo | elmo, ok. I checked to make sure it's not a no-op. debian has newer version here http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/t/thunar/ | 05:17 |
| janimo | theirs is -3 ours -2 | 05:17 |
| elmo | janimo: dude, it's no-op | 05:18 |
| janimo | meaning? | 05:18 |
| elmo | unless there's an 'ubuntu' in the version, it'll be automatically synced | 05:18 |
| elmo | there's no ubuntu in the version ==> you don't need to ask me to sync it | 05:18 |
| janimo | ok, I asked because I wanted it now :) | 05:19 |
| janimo | so I don't modify something in it (fix FTBFS) and then have to ask for override anyway tomorrow | 05:19 |
| janimo | I misunderstood what you meant by no-op | 05:19 |
| elmo | you can't have it now | 05:20 |
| elmo | debian's key changes have broken the sync scripts | 05:20 |
| elmo | just assume it'll be synced eventually, and move onto something else | 05:20 |

| Diziet | Where can I find where Gnome keeps its mapping from file extensions to mime types ? | 05:21 |
| Diziet | Something thinks that a `.deb' is an `application/x-deb'. The canonical and obviously more correct answer seems to be `application/x-debian-package'. | 05:22 |
| Keybuk | /etc/mime.types | 05:22 |
| Diziet | Nope, looked there. | 05:22 |
| Diziet | That has the right info. | 05:22 |
| Diziet | But in Nautilus, right-click menu / Properties, I see the wrong MIME type. | 05:22 |
| Diziet | In fact I grepped /etc. I could grep /usr too ... | 05:23 |
| === spacey_ki [n=spacey@flits101-191.flits.rug.nl] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Diziet | And there isn't already a database of `safe' mime types, is there ? Ie, ones that we can safely double-click on in Nautilus or `open' from a browser, without executing them. | 05:24 |
| Keybuk | Diziet: shared-mine-info package? | 05:25 |
| janimo | does not use fd.o mime info? | 05:25 |
| janimo | in /usr/share/mime/packages/freedesktop.org.xml | 05:25 |
| Diziet | Ah yes, there it is. Excellent. Now I know where to fix that one :-). | 05:25 |
| Diziet | Dammit, how do I make a file un`open'able in Nautilus ? | 05:30 |
| Diziet | I mean, I want to fool Nautilus into thinking it doesn't know how to open it. | 05:31 |
| Diziet | Or some other technique would be OK too, but the user still has to be able to copy the file about | 05:31 |
| Keybuk | properties, remove all the apps associated with it? | 05:34 |
| HiddenWolf | Keybuk, I don't think you can remove the default when there is no other app set. | 05:35 |
| Diziet | This is getting quite out of hand. I wanted to defend the user from unwise clicking. Ie, make it impossible for the user to install or execute software just by constantly clicking on stuff to `see it'. | 05:35 |
| Diziet | So eg if you visit a page which has some executable on it, you can't execute it by downloading it and then double-clicking on the copy on the desktop. | 05:36 |
| === carstenh [n=carstenh@mkfw.fh-trier.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Diziet | But to do this properly will need serious effort. Eg, what if it's in a zipfile ? | 05:38 |
| Diziet | Maybe MAC labels would do it. How about it ? Everything from the web (and we patch the mailreaders too) gets tagged with `may not be opened other than by blessed programs'. That'd put a spanner in the `rich user experience'. | 05:40 |
| Diziet | I think I'll go back to solving solveable bugs. | 05:41 |
| === herzi [n=herzi@d044041.adsl.hansenet.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Keybuk | Diziet: you shouldn't be able to anyway | 05:43 |
| Keybuk | the executable won't be, err, executable | 05:43 |
| Keybuk | if it's a zip file, or some other file handled by an application, what's wrong with it being opened | 05:43 |
| Keybuk | if I downloaded a jpeg, and couldn't double-click it to see the porn in better detail, I'd get annoyed | 05:43 |
| Diziet | Right. | 05:48 |
| === OculusAquilae [n=bastian@p548D30E5.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Diziet | But there are file types that don't need to be +x to be `executed'. | 05:48 |
| Keybuk | there are? | 05:49 |
| === Keybuk can't think of any off-hand | ||
| Diziet | For example, application/x-debian-package. Which is only safe because in our firefox the debian-view program runs in the terminal where you can't see it, and Nautilus gets the file type wrong and runs file-roller on it which can't cope. | 05:49 |
| Keybuk | if you really want to fix a major bug, you can fix the one where you can get a user to download a .desktop file that can run anything | 05:49 |
| Diziet | Right. That's another example. | 05:50 |
| Keybuk | Diziet: I thought mvo had written a program to run on those | 05:50 |
| Diziet | keybuk: mvo> I wouldn't be surprised, but it's not plubmed in. | 05:50 |
| lamont-away | Kamion: given back | 05:50 |
| Diziet | But you hardly want it to pop up a thing offering to install it ! | 05:50 |
| Kamion | lamont-away: thanks | 05:50 |
| Keybuk | why not? | 05:50 |
| Kamion | Diziet: I've been arguing that with people for the last year and a half | 05:50 |
| Diziet | Because the user thinks that `click' means `show me what this is'. | 05:51 |
| Keybuk | afaik mvo's thing tells you what it is, and offers to let you install it if you type in your password and ignore all of the "THIS IS DANGEROUS" signs | 05:51 |
| Diziet | And always answers `yes' to all confirmation dialogues because they're always `[Yes] (work) or [No] (don't work)' | 05:51 |
| Keybuk | there's lower hanging fruit | 05:52 |
| Keybuk | the .desktop problem is a real one | 05:52 |
| Diziet | It's the _same problem_. | 05:52 |
| Keybuk | no it isn't | 05:52 |
| Keybuk | the .desktop one is that nautilus has built-in handling that assumes they're all safe | 05:52 |
| Keybuk | and that they can be customised to look like whatever you want | 05:52 |
| Keybuk | like innocuous text files | 05:52 |
| Keybuk | that's a problem | 05:53 |
| Diziet | Yes, it is. The problem is that you can download some random file and firefox (which is what knows that it's not safe) ought not to leave it lying around in a way that clicking on it is dangerous. | 05:53 |
| Keybuk | the fact that files can be opened with helper programs is not a problem, that's design | 05:53 |
| Diziet | Obviously whether a file is dangerous depends on the file. | 05:53 |
| Keybuk | if we have file-type helper programs that act immediately, that's the bug | 05:53 |
| Diziet | In particular, it depends on what Nautilus will do when the user clicks. | 05:53 |
| Keybuk | not that you can double-click files and have the right program loaded for them | 05:54 |
| Diziet | Err, I'm not saying you shouldn't have the right program run - if the file and the program is supposedly safe. | 05:54 |
| Diziet | Eg, an image viewer. | 05:54 |
| Diziet | We consider it a security bug if an image viewer executes the image. | 05:54 |
| Keybuk | what isn't safe though? | 05:54 |
| Diziet | There has to be a whitelist. | 05:54 |
| Keybuk | the mime type handling list is the whitelist | 05:55 |
| Mithrandir | pitti: (I was off eating dinner) I do FOO=whatever command once in a while and it would be very annoying if that broke, like Colin said. | 05:55 |
| Keybuk | we just shouldn't put dangerous things in that | 05:55 |
| Diziet | But it's full of stuff like `run wine on this .exe'. | 05:55 |
| === mvo just noticed his nick highlight and would like to add that there is a deb-installer available now | ||
| Keybuk | now that's a valid bug ;) | 05:55 |
| Diziet | But if you have the .exe installed on your machine and double-click on it it _ought_ to run it with Wine ! | 05:55 |
| pitti | Mithrandir: <pitti> mdz: agreed - whitelist for limited access, unfiltered for unlimited access | 05:55 |
| pitti | Mithrandir: do you agree with that? | 05:55 |
| slomo | wine on every *.exe is wrong anyway | 05:55 |
| Keybuk | Diziet: perhaps you could hook the nautilus "this file may be unsafe, do you want to FOO or BAR thing?" | 05:56 |
| Keybuk | it does that for shell scripts, etc. | 05:56 |
| Keybuk | lets you open them in a text editor instead | 05:56 |
| Mithrandir | pitti: that works for me, since I have full access where I have sudo, at least generally. :-) | 05:56 |
| Kamion | .exe files should just be made executable and use binfmt-support | 05:56 |
| Diziet | keybuk: How can I signal to it ? | 05:56 |
| Keybuk | dunno, sure it's possible | 05:56 |
| Kamion | then if you drop the MIME handling for them, non-executable .exe files are safe | 05:56 |
| pitti | Mithrandir: I also did a followup to http://bugs.debian.org/342948 | 05:56 |
| Kamion | and executable ones work as expected | 05:56 |
| Diziet | kamion: That would be a reasonable approach. | 05:57 |
| Keybuk | Kamion: that's how you have to do it for the mono ones already | 05:57 |
| Kamion | Keybuk: indeed so | 05:57 |
| Diziet | So 18701 is a bug in the wine package ? | 05:57 |
| Kamion | Diziet: in whatever does the MIME handling, I'd've thought | 05:57 |
| Diziet | Err, wine presumabely specifies its own mailcap entries or what have you., | 05:57 |
| Kamion | I don't know the layout | 05:58 |
| Kamion | but if so, I'd think so, yes | 05:58 |
| Diziet | What's the mime type of a .desktop file ? | 05:58 |
| Keybuk | there isn't one, is there? | 05:58 |
| Keybuk | that handling is hard-coded into nautilus | 05:58 |
| slomo | application/x-desktop | 05:59 |
| Diziet | Firefox ought to think harder about the extensions on files it downloads, anyway. | 05:59 |
| Mithrandir | Keybuk: except that the dialog is stupid enough that it can't differentiate between "shell script" and "text file which accidentially got its executable bits twiddled", so it gets annoying after a while. | 05:59 |
| Keybuk | Mithrandir: didn't they fix that? | 06:00 |
| Keybuk | would be easy enough, open it, read(,2) and strcmp("#!") | 06:00 |

| Kamion | udevplug: error while loading shared libraries: libsepol.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory | 06:01 |
| Keybuk | Kamion: yes, it would be | 06:02 |
| Runix | can i ask? | 06:02 |
| Keybuk | selinux dragged it in as a new dep | 06:02 |
| Mithrandir | Keybuk: possibly, I just know I've been annoyed aobut it in the past. | 06:02 |
| Kamion | Keybuk: udev-udeb shouldn't be linked against selinux though | 06:02 |
| Keybuk | Kamion: meh, that'd involve compiling udev twice, differently | 06:03 |
| Keybuk | and I'd hate you for that | 06:03 |
| Keybuk | and sulk | 06:03 |
| Keybuk | and stuff | 06:03 |
| Kamion | Keybuk: yes; I'd hate you for having to put together selinux udebs for no reason though | 06:03 |
| Runix | i'm italian ubuntu user | 06:03 |
| Keybuk | isn't there an selinux udeb? :p | 06:03 |
| Keybuk | after all, udev-udeb has always needed that anyway, no? | 06:03 |
| Mithrandir | Runix: talk to sabdfl, then. | 06:03 |
| Kamion | Runix: he may not be around, but we can always accept your thanks on behalf of Canonical, I suppose :) | 06:03 |
| Kamion | Keybuk: never has before | 06:03 |
| Mithrandir | Kamion: he's in the channel, at least. | 06:03 |
| Keybuk | has since UBZ | 06:03 |
| Runix | i don't speak english very well | 06:04 |
| Runix | sorry | 06:04 |
| Kamion | Keybuk: no, it really hasn't | 06:04 |
| Kamion | this is new breakage | 06:04 |
| Keybuk | Kamion: it deps on sepol, but not selinux? | 06:04 |
| Runix | yes | 06:04 |
| Keybuk | this could be just shlibs breakage | 06:04 |
| Runix | i say tahnk you for all team around ubuntu | 06:04 |
| Kamion | Keybuk: hmph, it does seem that it's been depending on selinux for a bit, but not actually caring that it isn't there | 06:05 |
| Kamion | OH | 06:05 |
| Kamion | headdesk | 06:05 |
| Kamion | d-i is pulling in libselinux.so.1 from the .deb in its initrd build process, because it's clever that way | 06:05 |
| Keybuk | I think it's been depending on both for ages ;) | 06:05 |
| Kamion | yeah, sorry, you're right | 06:06 |
| Runix | i would like to see in ubuntu desktop a program like yast | 06:06 |
| Runix | why is not possible? | 06:06 |
| Kamion | Runix: we like to maintain only one program for each task where possible; in this case, we'd prefer to put effort into improving gnome-system-tools. | 06:06 |
| daq4th | and the only thing in yast which works is the frontend ... | 06:07 |
| Keybuk | Kamion: I could make a no-selinux compile for the udeb ... but I've so far been cautious about making custom compiles for things, as it means they behave slightly different | 06:07 |
| Keybuk | having the same udevd in the initramfs, main system and installer has been a bonus for debugging | 06:07 |
| Kamion | Keybuk: ok, it would be absolutely lovely to fix this, but in the meantime I can sort of work around it I think | 06:07 |
| Keybuk | there's no clean way to package it though :-/ | 06:08 |
| Keybuk | you can't out-of-tree build udev | 06:08 |
| Kamion | this is why the Debian package does that hardlink tree thing | 06:08 |
| Keybuk | which means you need to make clean, and make again in one of the binary targets | 06:08 |
| Keybuk | which SUCKS | 06:08 |
| Runix | thank you Kamion, there is a fronted like yast on ubuntu? | 06:08 |
| Keybuk | I'd be more tempted to just disable selinux in general :p | 06:09 |
| Runix | i mean control center for hardware | 06:09 |
| Kamion | Keybuk: or you could copy the whole source tree | 06:09 |
| Keybuk | that seems ugly to me | 06:09 |
| Kamion | so does installer code depending on selinux ... | 06:09 |
| Kamion | the hardlink tree thing seems to work fine in Debian though | 06:10 |
| Keybuk | the Debian package is dbs, remember | 06:10 |
| Keybuk | so has the tarball inside it, and can just unpack two build trees | 06:10 |
| === zyga [n=zyga@ubuntu/member/zyga] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Kamion | it doesn't rely on that for the udev-udeb build though | 06:10 |
| Keybuk | doesn't it, can't say I've looked for a while | 06:10 |
| Kamion | it has an lndir.sh script which builds a hardlinked copy of the source after unpacking the upstream tarball and patches and such | 06:11 |
| Keybuk | hmm | 06:11 |
| Keybuk | I'd actually have to rewrite the entire source anyway | 06:11 |
| Kamion | Runix: I'm not familiar enough with YaST to answer that, I'm afraid | 06:11 |
| Keybuk | I hate d-i | 06:11 |
| slomo | was debhelper or better po-debconf broken earlier today and is this fixed now (i can't reproduce it at least)? fontforge and theora failed because of it " debhelper: Depends: po-debconf but it is not going to be installed" | 06:11 |
| Keybuk | it's soo damned invasive to other packages | 06:11 |
| Kamion | Keybuk: why a rewrite? | 06:11 |
| Keybuk | Kamion: because I build the udeb by copying things out of the real one's tree | 06:11 |
| Keybuk | I'd have to rewrite it to run make install, and copy them from the source tree | 06:12 |
| Kamion | so you'd have to rewrite debian/rules, yeah | 06:12 |

| Kamion | or at least the udev parts of it | 06:12 |
| Keybuk | I'm so just going to disable selinux | 06:12 |
| Keybuk | we don't use it anyway | 06:12 |
| Kamion | don't the selinux guys need udev to support it? | 06:13 |
| Keybuk | probably | 06:13 |
| Keybuk | but then won't they also need the installer to support it? | 06:13 |
| Kamion | no | 06:13 |
| Kamion | at least nobody's ever said that, and I can't see why they would | 06:13 |
| Kamion | I'll just shove workaround build-deps in d-i for now | 06:13 |
| Keybuk | dunno | 06:14 |

| daniels | mvo: r350 in particular and ppc is still hairy | 08:31 |
| lamont-away | should I expect that to cause X to call a null pointer under certain acceleration thigns? | 08:31 |
| daniels | lamont-away: RUN AWAY | 08:31 |
| lamont-away | Option "NoAccel" "true" | 08:31 |
| daniels | radeon xpress stuff is crack, but airlied got himself one for christmas, so its issues should hopefully be fixing themselves shortly | 08:31 |
| janimo | daniels is it now possible to hack on X without having the whole tree? | 08:32 |
| daniels | lamont-away: breezy, or dapper? | 08:32 |
| lamont-away | ah, cool. | 08:32 |
| daniels | janimo: yes | 08:32 |
| lamont-away | breezy | 08:32 |
| daniels | lamont-away: 'yes' | 08:32 |
| lamont-away | should dapper be better? | 08:32 |
| daniels | lamont-away: Option "Accel" should fix it, and dapper is better | 08:32 |
| daniels | (don't ask) | 08:32 |
| lamont-away | daniels: Option "Accel" "true" ?? | 08:32 |
| daniels | the "true" is redundant, but yeah | 08:32 |
| lamont-away | uh, ok. that's sick | 08:33 |
| daniels | yes | 08:33 |
| janimo | daniels, by radeon xpress you mean PCIE R300 cards? | 08:33 |
| doko_ | daniels: vnc4 includes a copy of Xfree86-4.2, what should be done with that? tightvnc might be an alternative | 08:34 |
| daniels | janimo: no, I mean radeon xpress cards | 08:34 |
| daniels | doko_: wooooooooo security holes! | 08:34 |
| janimo | I saw on r300 sf page they have problems with pci express | 08:34 |
| daniels | doko_: the answer there is 'christ almighty, don't do that' | 08:34 |
| daniels | janimo: that's true | 08:34 |
| doko_ | daniels: ok, so we should demote vnc4 to universe and promote tightvnc to main | 08:35 |
| daniels | doko_: almost certainly | 08:35 |
| daniels | but don't quote me on that | 08:35 |
| daniels | (personally I think VNC is crack in general and would rather not have to attempt to support it, but eh) | 08:35 |
| janimo | freeNX misses dapper too is seems | 08:36 |
| daniels | yes, and for good reason | 08:37 |
| daniels | that thing needs serious, serious, changes before it can get into dapper | 08:37 |

| daniels | i'm going to go out on a limb and say that's a firefox issue | 08:43 |
| daniels | given the little yellow window with the red source code is what firefox throws up when it goes 'holy crap xul is all bad' | 08:43 |
| pvanhoof | There's a line being drawed underneat my mouse cursor since last week (and todays xserver upgrades didn't remove it) ... will it go away sooner or later? | 08:43 |

| pvanhoof | I'm on dapper of course | 08:44 |

| daniels | Diziet: i guess. i didn't know I was the firefox maintainer? | 08:44 |

| \sh | Kamion: thx :) | 08:46 |
| pvanhoof | oh, well .. it's not finding a fglrx module in the kernel | 08:46 |
| pvanhoof | so whatever it does when it's not finding that module, is happening :) | 08:46 |
| \sh | Kamion: so elmo could morgue them or move it into the trash directly? | 08:46 |

| daniels | Diziet: if you look at the bug activity log, some random just assigned it to me | 08:47 |

| janimo | delire, somebody us working on a spec called firewall | 10:11 |
| delire | i encountered this in a remote part of new zealand recently. as it evolved, we needed to retain a windows machine to share the PPP connection to the Ubuntu machines on the LAN. this was something of a defeat for a rural household moving over to Ubuntu. | 10:11 |
| daniels | lifeless: is 0.7pre supposed to be performant? | 10:11 |
| janimo | that should cover connection sharing | 10:11 |
| delire | janimo ahah, interesting. | 10:11 |
| dholbach | Have a nice evening - I'm off. | 10:11 |
| delire | ciao | 10:11 |
| janimo | it's low prio for dapper but there is hope | 10:11 |
| janimo | he's carstenh you may want to get in touch with him | 10:11 |
| janimo | I am interested in this as well | 10:12 |
| delire | janimo Ubuntu is tricky for networks on the end of a dialup connection as it stands i feel. | 10:12 |
| janimo | sadly yes | 10:12 |
| delire | .. and this is the case for rural areas housing millions of people worldwide. | 10:12 |
| janimo | am being reminded by frieds on dialup who I gave ubuntu and went back to win out of frustration :) | 10:12 |
| janimo | s/:)/:(/ | 10:12 |
| delire | janimo precisely.. | 10:13 |
| janimo | there's a dial up spec also for a while but receives no love | 10:13 |
| daniels | there's been a dialup spec since specs existed, and dialup was often mentioned in the warty cycle, even | 10:13 |
| delire | well great to know this is on the way. as if support for non-serial-port modems wasn't enough of a problem.. | 10:13 |
| janimo | do you want to help do it if I understand correctly? | 10:14 |
| daniels | it really needs someone with some amount of time to really take it and make it work | 10:14 |
| daniels | unfortunately the itch factor is low -- i went to use a modem the other day when my DSL didn't exist, and discovered I didn't own one, outside of the seemingly non-functional one in my laptop. i suspect this is not abnormal. | 10:14 |
| delire | daniels alot of folk would like to run Ubuntu in rural areas, but as it stands, Ubuntu is ironically better suited to the financially well off, those that can afford a DSL connection. | 10:14 |
| janimo | I think the issue of softmodems is one too, not? | 10:14 |
| delire | janimo truly. this is a big problem. | 10:15 |
| daniels | delire: this is fully understood, it's just a matter of time, resources and motivation. it needs someone with all three to step up and own the spec. | 10:15 |
| HrdwrBoB | yes, none of the developed, none of the tested use a dialup connection | 10:15 |

| delire | lucas: hehe | 10:16 |
| janimo | as in working for a bounty or offering one? :) | 10:16 |
| delire | janimo possibly offering one. i will look into this 'firewall' script with connection-sharing functionality you mentioned. who did you say is responsible? | 10:17 |

| daniels | so I just gave up and tried again | 10:21 |
| delire | thanks for your help all. i'm going to tail this development. i think something along the lines of an 'Internet Connection Sharing' app for Ubuntu would really open it up to rural/underprivileged demographics, and even geographically remote SME's/SOHO's. | 10:22 |
| daniels | there's no arguments there, it just needs to actually get done | 10:23 |
| lifeless | daniels: ok | 10:23 |
| delire | have a good night. | 10:23 |
| janimo | delire, as for dialup go to wiki.ubuntu.com and type dialup in the search box | 10:23 |
| lifeless | daniels: for reference, if you make a change and I make a change, one of us *has* to merge the other and commit before you can pull again. | 10:23 |
| janimo | night | 10:23 |
| Burgwork | jdub, css on planet appears to be borked | 10:25 |
| daniels | lifeless: right. but merge just completely bombed and left me with a tree that was ostensibly up to date, but the delta from my tree to upstream was exactly as it was before I ran merge | 10:25 |

| robertj | mvo: hehe, and very laggy window resizing | 10:59 |
| mvo | robertj: :) what card do you have? I found that using "exa" to accelerate works very well on my ati | 10:59 |
| daniels | exa + composite + xcompmgr -a, makes your system stupid fast | 11:00 |
| daniels | robertj: use xcompmgr -a, not xcompmgr | 11:00 |
| robertj | intel integrated garbage | 11:00 |
| Treenaks | oh speaking of ati :0 | 11:00 |
| Treenaks | daniels: I'm going to try the ati driver on my crack ATI card | 11:00 |
| daniels | the firegl? | 11:02 |
| robertj | I think exa was putting me into a deathspin a few weeks ago | 11:03 |

| Treenaks | daniels: and it's still broken :) but in another interesting way | 11:05 |
| kent | what is exa? | 11:06 |
| Treenaks | daniels: It now gives me a black screen (and tells me it found a CRT as the default display, instead of my laptop LCD) | 11:06 |
| Treenaks | daniels: if I set Option MonitorLayout "LVDS", I get the old breakage back | 11:06 |
| robertj | wait nevermind | 11:07 |

| Treenaks | daniels: see PM for links | 11:12 |

| kent | daniels, you meen use it with xcompmgr -a like you said above? | 11:13 |
| daniels | jdahlin: only works out of the box for radeons at the moment. at http://xorg.freedesktop.org/wiki/ExaStatus you can find patches for i810, nv, savage, tdfx, etc | 11:13 |
