[12:47] <robertj> would it be too late to get Wesnoth added to gnome-app-install?
[12:48] <robertj> oh doh, it's already there under "Battle for Wesnoth"

=== robertj goes off to file & resolve the bug on launchpad
[12:58] <Burgwork> robertj, generally, if it has a .desktop file, it should already be in g-a-i
[12:58] <Burgwork> robertj, what would be great is to find things that don't have a .desktop file and file a bug for those
[12:58] <Burgwork> preferably with a .desktop in the bug
[12:59] <robertj> yeah, I wonder if Wesnoth 1.1 should be shipped w/ dapper, it's a development release and online multiplayer doesn't work
[12:59] <robertj> whereas 1.0 is stable and has online multiplayer
[12:59] <Kyral> hmm
[12:59] <Kyral> how wanted is an easy setup for Xen in Dapper?
[12:59] <Burgwork> Kyral, not likely for dapper, but dapper+1
[12:59] <Kyral> Yah I should have said in general lol
[01:00] <Burgwork> Kyral, as we are too late into freeze
[01:00] <Burgwork> but yes, Xen would be great
=== Kyral has been obsessed with Xen recently, hence his lack of Ubuntu work
[01:00] <Burgwork> somebody did some work for SoC
[01:00] <Kyral> Yah
[01:00] <Kyral> Ed Despard
[01:00] <Kyral> he went to my university :P
[01:00] <Kyral> We had his server around in the COSI until recently
[01:01] <LaserJock> hmmm
[01:01] <Kyral> I guess I could start by writing something for the Wiki (my domain azuredreams.us runs on XenBreezy)
[01:04] <infinity> LaserJock: Giving it back isn't going to help, it needs some scons abuse love first.
[01:05] <LaserJock> infinity: yeah, slomo told me about that
[01:06] <LaserJock> infinity: is that in the works?

[01:07] <Mez> hmm
[01:08] <Burgwork> Mez, he was active in gnome-hackers on gimpnet not 5 minutes ago
[01:08] <jdub> Mez: pong (geez, give me a second at least...)
[01:08] <Mez> oh hey jdub :D
[01:08] <Mez> didnt see you there :d
[01:08] <Mez> It's not showing you in /names
[01:08] <Mez> jdub: is it me - or does it seem a bit wrong to be able to - with the default ubuntu setup have the word "bullshit" appear in huge letters on your screen?
[01:09] <Mez> (and quite possibly in the edubuntu default install too - havent tested that yet)
[01:09] <jdub> if you gave me some context, i could probably answer
[01:09] <infinity> LaserJock: I'll sort it today.
[01:09] <Mez> jdub: context
[01:10] <Mez> you're sitting there nicely doodling on a pad next to your computer 
[01:10] <LaserJock> infinity: oh cool. Thanks.
[01:10] <Mez> the screensaver kicks in and you see the words "wave your bullshit wand with me" scrolling across the screen
[01:11] <jdub> if you're saying that planet ubuntu shouldn't be used as the RSS source for the screensavers, i agree.
[01:11] <jdub> i dunno why you're asking me though.
[01:11] <Mez> jdub: is that where it came from?
[01:11] <jdub> sounds like a worthwhile bug.
[01:11] <Mez> jdub: didnt know it was getting it from planet
[01:11] <jdub> and i'd suggest using the fridge instead.
[01:11] <Mez> but it jsut severly f**ked up a presentation :D
[01:11] <Kyral> Actually I should email Jeff about linking in my blog to Planet
[01:12] <jdub> please do - planet ubuntu is a bit slow ;-)
[01:12] <Mez> jdub: I only asked you as your name appeared next to it

[01:18] <jdong> I've upgraded most of my systems over to Dapper
[01:18] <jdong> successful upgrades, BTW
[01:18] <jdong> great work, everyone

[01:19] <Mez> though - the orange ...

[01:25] <PuppiesOnAcid> How come XChat wasn't included in Dapper Flight 5?
[01:26] <Burgwork> PuppiesOnAcid, we are no longer shipping a seperate IRC client
=== sivang also neesd his blog to be in planel, when he starts to write on it.
=== Kyral blinks
[01:26] <Kyral> "seperate"
[01:26] <Kyral> wasn't XChat the default client?
[01:26] <Burgwork> sivang, I want to see backup hotness
[01:26] <PuppiesOnAcid> Burgwork: What'st he reason for that?  I'm just curious.
[01:26] <jdub> Kyral: you can install xchat very easily
[01:26] <Burgwork> PuppiesOnAcid, not enough of the user base is actuallly using irc
[01:26] <jdub> Burgwork: don't confuse it by saying it like that
[01:27] <PuppiesOnAcid> Burgwork: Ah, interesting.
[01:27] <Burgwork> jdub, hmm?
[01:27] <Kyral> jdub, I know :P
[01:27] <Burgwork> that is my understanding
[01:27] <Kyral> jdub, frankly I use Konversation or Irssi
[01:27] <Burgwork> oh, I said seperate because of gaim
[01:27] <jdub> Burgwork: that's a very confusing and roundabout way to say what we've done
[01:27] <jdub> exactly
[01:27] <jdub> that's irrelevant :0
[01:27] <Burgwork> ok
[01:27] <jdub> :) rather
[01:27] <Kyral> Burgwork, you consider GAIM's lame excuse of a client an IRC Client?
[01:28] <Burgwork> Kyral, it exists. It has no bearing on not shipping xchat
=== Kyral falls down
[01:28] <jdub> "we're not shipping a gui irc client out of the box, because it only serves the needs of a very small niche"
[01:28] <Kyral> jdub, doesn't the default homepage mention IRC? (I haven't seen it in a while)
[01:28] <jdub> "you can install it very easily in moments"
[01:29] <jdub> Kyral: i believe that's changed
[01:29] <Burgwork> Kyral, yes it does and the doc team is discussing what to do
=== Kyral sighs
[01:29] <jdub> (but it wasn't a hugely useful thing to say anyway)
[01:29] <Kyral> oy oy oy
[01:29] <Kyral> I'm just getting flashbacks to the reason why Build-Essential isn't installed by default...
[01:30] <Burgwork> neither b-e or xchat is going to be used by your mother, or the guy in the next cubicle
[01:30] <jdub> man, the rationale for skipping b-e is even stronger than xchat
[01:30] <Kyral> Burgwork, you don't know how much crap I get from my Linux friends about the fact that they have to manually install a compiler
[01:31] <Burgwork> Kyral, there are lots of other linux distros out there...
[01:31] <Burgwork> plus, it really is easy to install
[01:31] <Kyral> Burgwork, I know, I sometimes just get sick of the multiple jokes at Ubuntu's expense in the COSI
[01:31] <Kyral> it's just venting ATM
[01:31] <Burgwork> what people really want is a stable system
[01:31] <Kyral> "Ubuntu is for Communists"
[01:32] <HrdwrBoB> apt-get install build-essential is so head?
[01:32] <jdub> Kyral: technically proficient person being teased by technically proficient people for installing something that is not of interest or use to 99% of the population is not great rationale for shipping something that is not of interest or use to 99% of the population

[01:32] <Burgwork> my boss is busy discovering what happens when you base your product on a non-stable platform (Fedora)
[01:32] <Kyral> HrdwrBoB, I think its just taking cracks at Ubuntu's success
[01:32] <HrdwrBoB> Kyral: it's basically old school unix people who think that things should be hard
[01:33] <HrdwrBoB> and can't see a reason why you would make it easy
=== sladen makes technical jdub regarding gnome-print dialogues, gnome file-dialogues ^L, gnome-screensaver configure button, .... ;-)
[01:33] <Kyral> HrdwrBoB, I get that way sometimes lol
[01:33] <sladen> technical jab at jdub
[01:33] <jdub> sladen: actually take a jab then
[01:33] <Kyral> I'm one of those idiots who gets nostaligic at doing the ./configure && make && sudo make install dance
[01:35] <Kyral> who wants to do a LFS install "just to see what its like"
[01:35] <Kyral> -ERANT
[01:35] <Burgwork> I am not and that is why I like Ubuntu
[01:35] <Kyral> Burgwork, Oh I get lazy sometimes. But I'm curious as all hell
[01:36] <Burgwork> I don't call it lazy. I have a finite amount of time. I would rather spend it on more interesting (to me) things
[01:36] <LaserJock> Burgwork: +1
[01:36] <Kyral> Burgwork, and this is interesting lol
=== sivang had the privilige to see how things evolved from sort of that way, to the out of the box way currently in dapper. this is _sweet_
[01:37] <Kyral> I mean I COULD have done my webserver without Xen
[01:37] <Kyral> and have it done easier
[01:37] <HrdwrBoB> Kyral: I'm old and agree with Burgwork 
[01:37] <Kyral> but I wanted to learn about Xen
[01:37] <HrdwrBoB> I choose to spend my time on more productive things
[01:37] <jdub> Kyral: different use case
[01:37] <Kyral> Then again, Burgwork, you guilt trip people into packaging for you :P
[01:38] <Burgwork> Kyral, I find packaging hard and baffling. That time thing again
[01:38] <Kyral> lol
[01:38] <Kyral> Burgwork, I know :P
[01:38] <Kyral> ack! Gotta fetch the dog!
=== Kyral shrugs
[01:38] <Kyral> sorry for the rant lol
[01:39] <Kyral> I mean I know people want things to just work. When I install my on my laptop I want it to go quick
[01:39] <Kyral> (why am I using Debian Sid then...)
[01:41] <Kyral> Acutally when I do that Xen thing (maybe, depends on how much time I have during he summer)
[01:41] <Kyral> I plan to write a GUI for it as well
[01:43] <Kyral> granted this means learning PyGTK and how to integrate it into the GNOME and KDE control centers...
[01:43] <Kyral> but, more tools under my belt, more skills to go on the resume

[10:57] <jono> hey, what time is the community meeting today ?
[10:57] <Treenaks> jono: now, on ubuntu-meeting
[10:57] <Treenaks> jono: (1 hour ago, but still going)
[10:58] <jdub> jono: but it is not random discussion. ie. ssshhh. :)
[10:58] <jono> :)
[11:02] <jono> so have I missed anything major in the meeting?
[11:02] <jono> is the delay confirmed?
[11:02] <Treenaks> jono: no, not really
[11:02] <jono> ahh
[11:02] <Mithrandir> jono: no, it's not confirmed and won't be decided now anyway.  There's a meeting tonight too.
[11:03] <Treenaks> jono: first hour or so was summing up comments/etc
[11:03] <Treenaks> jono: now sabdfl is replying
[11:03] <Mithrandir> jono: read the log as posted in topic on u-m
[11:03] <jono> ahhh of course
[11:03] <jono> Mithrandir, cool
[11:04] <jdub> ogra: suse article?
[11:04] <whiprush> ogra: link pls.
[11:04] <whiprush> jono: did you get my book feedback?
[11:05] <jono> whiprush, certainly did, great feedback
[11:05] <jono> whiprush, the chapter I wrote was a little rushed due to insane schedules, so the feedback has been really useful :)
[11:05] <jono> I have added lots of new bits to it :)
[11:05] <whiprush> jono: this book will rule nonetheless. :)
[11:05] <jono> it will with feedback like yours whiprush :)
[11:06] <ogra> whiprush, jdub printed press
[11:06] <jono> can anyone make comments in this meeting or only certain people ?
[11:07] <Treenaks> jono: if you have a comment, /msg Seveas 
[11:07] <jono> ok
[11:08] <jdub> ogra: synopsis?
[11:09] <ogra> jdub, suse got a very bad article in yesterdays german "linux user" 
[11:09] <ogra> essentially about missing features, missing drivers and that they didnt even make it even they postponed the release 4 weeks
[11:12] <jdub> ah

[11:23] <jdub> highvoltage: btw, nexenta has always been based on ubuntu
[11:23] <jdub> highvoltage: yes, very early on, and discarded - we can't develop so many branches
[11:24] <highvoltage> jdub: ok on multi-versions, perhaps i should update my blog entry... /me grumbles...

[11:37] <vuntz_> sivang: or the content management for antoher page?
[11:38] <Kamion> jono: my notes on the issue you raised say:
[11:38] <Kamion>   * Diagnosed why partition automounting isn't working in the
[11:38] <Kamion>     auto-resize case (method and acting_filesystem files not copied over
[11:38] <Kamion>     to the new partman device directory). Not yet sure why or how to fix
[11:38] <Kamion>     it.
[11:38] <Kamion> jono: AFAIK it's only a problem in the case where you're resizing an existing Windows partition
[11:38] <Kamion> jono: and it's just a bug, not a new feature that needs to be added
[11:39] <seb128> Kamion: there is no automounting on the liveCD neither
[11:39] <Kamion> seb128: Mithrandir had code for that; not sure what happened to it
[11:39] <seb128> Kamion: people tend to be disapointed by that because usually when they use the liveCD they would like to be able to use their win partition from the box
[11:40] <seb128> Mithrandir: ping?
[11:40] <Mithrandir> seb128: pong
[11:40] <Kamion> but that's an entirely separate problem, and not my problem ;)
[11:40] <seb128> k
[11:40] <Kamion> yay conflation
[11:40] <seb128> Mithrandir: auto-mounting on win partitions for liveCD will happen before dapper?
[11:40] <seb128> s/on/of
[11:40] <Mithrandir> seb128: we could do that, sure.
[11:40] <Mithrandir> just mount them all in /media should work?
[11:41] <jono> Kamion, from the users perspective it would be useful if any windows partitions were detected and device icons placed on the desktop
[11:41] <seb128> Mithrandir: yep
[11:41] <jono> Kamion, is that a resize issue?
[11:41] <pitti> I guess we could grab unmounted vfat partitions from hal and automount them
[11:41] <pitti> but that would require us to change our policy wrt to that
[11:41] <seb128> Mithrandir: that seems to be one of the frequent complain of people trying it on their box, they expect to be able to use their win partition (ie: have icons for them on the desktop)
[11:41] <Mithrandir> pitti: the live cd can do whatever it wants to.  I'll probably chuck them in the fstab.
[11:42] <pitti> Mithrandir: true
[11:42] <Mithrandir> seb128: I'm wondering if we should mount them R/O or not, as IIRC, NTFS writing isn't too well supported.
[11:42] <pitti> Mithrandir: hmm, since the installer already puts them into fstab by default, that should reasonably settle installs too
[11:42] <jono> I think its a real showstopper for many people - you install this awesome distro graphically and then need need to hack /etc/fstab to get your windows disks to work
=== DapperDrake [n=seveas@ubuntu/member/seveas]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
[11:42] <Kamion> jono: Windows partitions are put in fstab already if you're not using the auto-resize thing
[11:42] <mjg59> The kernel will refuse to mount ntfs partitions read/write unless you force it
[11:43] <mjg59> So if they're going in fstab, they might as well go in rw
[11:43] <Kamion> jono: if you know of cases where it fails to work if you *aren't* resizing an existing Windows partition, I would like to know about it
[11:43] <seb128> Mithrandir: vfat RW, ntfs RO
[11:43] <jono> Kamion, ahhh maybe I am wrong
[11:43] <Mithrandir> seb128: agreed, but we'll get complaints about it.
[11:43] <seb128> there is no other way around
[11:43] <Kamion> jono: icons on the desktop aren't my problem or domain of expertise
[11:43] <seb128> ntfs writting doesn't work
[11:43] <mjg59> Mithrandir: NTFS write support is broken to the point where creating, removing or resizing files will corrupt the filesystem
=== vmlintu__ [n=vmlintu@haiti.ykkonen.net]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
[11:44] <Mithrandir> mjg59: joy.
[11:44] <spacey> jono: my ntfs disk is available in dapper, i never requested that
[11:44] <mjg59> Mithrandir: But that's ok, because even if you ask to mount it rw, the kernel will ignore you
[11:44] <Kamion> jono: it is possible that it's broken in cases other than auto-resize - I'm serious about wanting bug reports about that
=== spacey will remove it from fstab :P
[11:45] <jono> Kamion, ok, but are you willling to deal with the wrath of Susan when I install dapper on her machine and it eats the world :P

=== bmon [n=monnahan@181.Red-88-0-49.dynamicIP.rima-tde.net]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
[11:49] <marty> can't ubuntu have a "out-of-box-experience" dialog that asks users how they want to handle the NTFS partitions it has found.  i definitely wouldn't want NTFS write my default for atleast  6 months or more of solid testing in the wild
[11:50] <seb128> marty: why asking, we just have to mount seems has readonly
[11:50] <seb128> s/has/as
[11:50] <jdub> marty: how would you word that dialogue such that it didn't sound like the doc in BTTF explaining how the flux capacitor works?
[11:51] <Treenaks> jdub: Marty McFly?
[11:51] <jdub> Treenaks: i don't think that would adequately explain the issue
[11:51] <Treenaks> jdub: it does explain the BTTF experience
[11:52] <whiprush> flux capacitor ... fluxing
[11:53] <tepsipakki> mjg59: making ntfs show up as rw in fstab would confuse people
[11:53] <marty> jdub, true true - i guess might not want to scare the natives

[11:55] <seb128> pitti: you did do g-v-m yet?
[11:55] <seb128> ogra: where do you find build logs nowadays?
[11:55] <ogra> jdub, see 34829
[11:55] <jdub> oh yeah
[11:55] <jdub> you should totally use the fridge feed instead
[11:55] <seb128> https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+builds page has logs from previous month
[11:55] <ogra> https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/2.14.0-0ubuntu1
[11:56] <Kamion> marty: there's no point until the kernel doesn't eat filesystems when you turn it on
[11:56] <ogra> seb128, see the right portlet
[11:56] <seb128> ogra: you go package by package?
[11:56] <ogra> its a bit tricky to get there 
[11:56] <seb128> ogra: that's not suitable when you do 40 uploads in a row :/
[11:56] <ogra> seb128, its the best opportunity until the buildlog page is fixed
[11:56] <jdub> ROAR sebuild ROAR
[11:56] <seb128> ogra: yeah, I know that page, but I don't want to browse every single upload I did
[11:57] <seb128> ogra: other is to wait for bugs, that's what I'm going to do
[11:57] <ogra> seb128, i understand ... i'm not fond of the logs page either
[11:57] <seb128> jdub: :)
[11:57] <ogra> but there are more important LP bugs i guess
[11:58] <pitti> seb128: no, sorry, but I will now
[11:59] <pitti> Kinnison: hey Daniel, got a minute?
[11:59] <seb128> pitti: np, before tomorrow would be nice so we have new GNOME on time :)
[11:59] <pitti> alright, will do now
[11:59] <pitti> seb128: before I'll do some bug triage to collect and sort all the free space notification bugs
[12:00] <pitti> seb128: btw, it would be good to get fresh langpacks tomorrow, right?
[12:00] <seb128> pitti: ok, they did quite some changes to it according to the ChangeLog

[12:00] <pitti> seb128: right, and I'd like to sort/fix the bugs alongside 
[12:00] <seb128> pitti: that would rock, we will have new GNOME in by today, perfect timing
[12:00] <pitti> carlos: any chance to get rosetta data for tomorrow? or shall I build the packs the ol' way?
=== pitti reenables his cronjobs 
[12:01] <carlos> pitti: dapper?
[12:01] <pitti> yes
[12:02] <carlos> pitti: no, sorry, still fighting with our test machinery that is preventing me to move my code into production
[12:03] <tepsipakki> seb128: how about malone #30384 for dapper? it's a oneliner, and fixes a bug
[12:03] <Ubugtu> malone bug 30384 in gnome-session "gnome-session-save presents a gui always" [Normal,Confirmed]  http://launchpad.net/bugs/30384
[12:03] <pitti> seb128: current dload-strippedtar.txt looks pretty good, thanks to your pot generation fixes
[12:03] <seb128> tepsipakki: I'll have a look later but I'm not convinced it's useful and should go upstream
[12:03] <seb128> pitti: do you have it somewhere? I though it was pending on pqm or something?
[12:03] <seb128> pitti: you're welcome :)
[12:03] <pitti> seb128: 'it'?
[12:04] <seb128> dload-strippedtar.txt
[12:04] <tepsipakki> seb128: well, is there another way of shutting the session down from cmdline?
[12:04] <seb128> tepsipakki: no, but there is an API which should be used from programs and which works fine
[12:05] <jono> do we have any further idea if the shipit CDs will just include the Live CD with espresso?
[12:05] <tepsipakki> seb128: ok, but making gnome-screensaver use that certainly wouldn't cut it in time ;)
[12:06] <seb128> why the heck doesn't a screensaver needs to save your session?
[12:06] <pitti> seb128: it's on the usual place: http://people.ubuntu.com/~pitti/langpacks/dload-strippedtar.txt
[12:07] <tepsipakki> classroom use: you have the screen locked for a preset time and then anyone can log you out
[12:07] <pitti> seb128: that's just my script that builds a rosetta-like tarball from the buildd output
[12:07] <seb128> pitti: it was not updated for some time, I though it was broken by move to soyuz or something
[12:07] <pitti> seb128: right, we fixed it again
[12:07] <seb128> ah, ok, I though that was pending an action from carlos in fact
[12:07] <seb128> cool
[12:07] <pitti> seb128: well, it wasn't exactly broken in the bug sense, it was just designed that way before
[12:08] <seb128> it still has outdated datas, I guess it has missed some uploads and will update those with next upload?
[12:09] <seb128> like gnumeric
[12:09] <seb128> "W: gnumeric_1.6.2-0ubuntu3: 2 domains, but 0 pot files"
[12:09] <Kamion> apologies for cdimage breakage today, was due to some non-g+s directories - fixed builds are in progress now
[12:09] <seb128> and we have gnumeric_1.6.2-0ubuntu4 atm
[12:12] <pitti> seb128: right, many tarballs weren't exported, specifically the ones between Feb 25 and March 3 (or so)

[01:00] <Kamion>     * th_TH.TIS-620, th_TH.UTF-8 locale generation
[01:00] <Kamion> this one?
[01:00] <Kamion> console-tools, console-data: Thai console fonts and keymap
[01:00] <Kamion> presumably that too
[01:01] <Kamion> the locale should be generated automatically when language-pack-th is installed, although at present only UTF-8 locales are generated
[01:02] <Kamion> Thai has no translations in d-i at present
[01:02] <thep> yup.
[01:02] <Kamion> does Thai require combining character support?
[01:02] <Kamion> are there any console fonts for it at present?
[01:02] <thep> Yes.
[01:03] <Kamion> yes to which? sorry I asked two yes/no questions at once
[01:03] <thep> I also plan to do it after desktop tasks.
[01:03] <thep> I mean, the console fonts.
[01:03] <Kamion> ok
[01:03] <thep> and keymap
[01:03] <Kamion> it is very difficult to incorporate new installer translations after upstream version freeze :(
[01:04] <Kamion> there are several dozen packages involved and all of them have to be uploaded
[01:04] <thep> I see.
[01:04] <Kamion> it might be easier to concentrate on espresso for now ... though the localisation framework for that isn't complete yet, which is my problem and something I have to work on RSN
[01:04] <jordi> Kamion: hey dude
[01:04] <thep> What is espresso?
[01:04] <Kamion> thep: live CD-based installer
[01:05] <jordi> Kamion: regarding espresso, I wanted to talk to you about it.
[01:05] <Kamion> jordi: yes, I saw your question, but there's probably not much I can say until I get the localisation framework done ...
[01:05] <jordi> mdz tells me you've tried to reuse strings from di
[01:05] <Kamion> yes
[01:05] <jordi> oh.
[01:05] <mdz> there will be important new strings though
[01:05] <jordi> is it safe to create a master-file by hand now that I can feed people with?
[01:05] <Kamion> indeed, we can only reuse a subset
[01:05] <Kamion> jordi: no no no no no
[01:05] <Kamion> sorry
[01:06] <jordi> ok ok ok :)
[01:06] <Kamion> it's just not in place yet
[01:06] <mdz> Kamion: what sort of work needs to be done there?
[01:06] <jordi> ok, was just wondering
[01:06] <Kamion> mdz: debconf escape extension so that I can put multi-line strings there

[02:24] <janimo> what is the pci id of the card? :))
[02:24] <ogra> doko, starts here, but i'm pretty outdated with my system

[02:29] <sivang> janimo: /me checks 
[02:29] <janimo> sivang, cause it's breezy
[02:29] <fabbione> sivang: because you didn't provide us a patch yet?
[02:29] <ogra> doko, for the upgrade i'll have to wait until DSL is back, i'm currently on ISDN ... (ETA 17:00)
[02:30] <janimo> fabbione: there was a patch actually but this did not make it to breezy updates after all
[02:30] <sivang> fabbione: indeed, true :)
[02:30] <fabbione> and it probably doesn't even apply anymore
[02:30] <fabbione> sivang: well check and see if it fixes the problem

=== lloydinho [n=andreas@rosinante.egmont-kol.dk]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
[05:26] <sladen> I like the flash is the gamma is being ramped down to zero, the action being cancelled (by $something) and then being reverted to normal gamma, followed the power-manger lowing the brightness
[05:26] <sladen> s/I like/I think/
[05:27] <ogra> yeah, the power manager should just grab the value the user has set and store that 
[05:28] <ogra> i see the dimming in the lock screen though ...

[06:35] <desrt>  -- Martin Pitt <martin.pitt@ubuntu.com>  Fri,  3 Mar 2006 14:22:54 +0100
[06:35] <pitti> ah, this one
[06:35] <pitti> desrt: why not?
[06:35] <desrt> ejectable in this sense means 'the device needs to be (USB) ejected on unmount'
[06:35] <fabbione> pitti: ok.. what i am looking for? or do you want that file?
[06:35] <desrt> or, it can mean this.
[06:36] <pitti> desrt: right, that's what it's supposed to do
[06:36] <pitti> fabbione: where does it crash?
[06:36] <desrt> if 'eject' appears in the UI i think that word should solely be reserved for optical drives and the like
=== sivang awaits bzr to complete pushing.
[06:36] <desrt> pitti; drivemount applet is offering to eject my mp3 player, for example... quite odd
[06:36] <pitti> sivang: get a coffee, dude :)
[06:36] <pitti> desrt: but we want that, since e. g. iPods need to be ejected
[06:36] <sivang> pitti: yeah, last time I got an instant soup :)
[06:37] <fabbione> pitti: it appears to crash scanning block devices..
[06:37] <desrt> pitti; they should just be auto-ejected on unmount...
[06:37] <pitti> fabbione: a gdb trace would rock as well, then please send me hal.txt and the backtrace
[06:37] <sivang> pitti: I even once forgot I was pushing in the backgorund, and continued hacking, then tried to commit while push in progress. boom!
[06:37] <seb128> desrt: upstream does the distinction but in a ugly way instead of using the hal property,no?
[06:38] <desrt> seb128; ya.  we say "is it a cd/dvd/zip/jaz/etc"
[06:38] <seb128> so what's wrong to rely on the hal property rather than using special case?
[06:38] <desrt> pitti; maybe the word "disconnected" would be a better choice if we could somehow do it
[06:38] <Kamion> fabbione: can you get keepalived built against openssl 0.9.8?
[06:38] <desrt> seb128; the meaning of 'eject' in the HAL property isn't the same as the meaning of eject in drivemount applet
[06:39] <pitti> desrt: right, that would just break translations, that's why I didn't want to change the string; especially not deviate from upstream

[06:40] <fabbione> Kamion: how urgent is it?
[06:40] <sivang> fabbione: enevtually I used the vesa driver, as this is a VMWare sever machine (the amd64 at work). I might check to see what went wrong there sometime if you would provide the debugging starting point, if that X600 bug source is not yet know.
[06:40] <mvo> doko: pong
[06:40] <seb128> desrt: we should always use "remove" or somethin neutral so, users don't care about unmount or eject
[06:40] <Kamion> fabbione: it's uninstallable on ubuntu-server CDs, that's all
[06:41] <fabbione> Kamion: ok thanks
[06:41] <fabbione> Kamion: will look at it
[06:41] <pitti> fabbione: hm, the output doesn't help too much; I'm afraid I do need a bt
[06:41] <desrt> seb128; i like 'disconnect' for pluggable stuff... and 'eject' is fine for things that actually eject (like cds)
[06:41] <fabbione> pitti: we can't bt there ...
[06:41] <pitti> fabbione: oh?
[06:41] <desrt> seb128; note: it might make sense to be able to either disconnect a firewire cd drive -or- eject the cd inside it
[06:41] <fabbione> pitti: gdb isn't very very happy on sparc.. not with all software at least
[06:41] <desrt> seb128; so they really are different ideas
[06:41] <fabbione> pitti: and hal is one of the bad boys
[06:42] <seb128> desrt: right
[06:42] <pitti> fabbione: gdb gdb hald :)
[06:42] <fabbione> pitti: i think the error appears only when daemonizing
[06:42] <pitti> fabbione: ah, you mean it actually ran when you started it manually?
[06:42] <fabbione> 18:42:33.815 [E]  hald_dbus.c:3258: dbus_bus_get(): Failed to get foreground console
[06:42] <fabbione> Sent kill to 5653
[06:42] <fabbione> Sent kill to 5652
[06:42] <desrt> seb128; also might make sense to unmount without ejecting.... but this is a questionable use case
[06:43] <pitti> fabbione: ah, so it didn't crash when you debugged it?
[06:43] <seb128> desrt: we already had that bug and it got rejected upstream
[06:43] <desrt> seb128; what bug?
[06:43] <seb128> desrt: arguing that unmounting is not useful since apps using the drive should be able to do that without asking you
[06:43] <seb128> desrt: "please provide an unmount action next to eject"

[06:48] <desrt> pitti; the idea is that many scsi devices require to be disconnected before being unplugged
[06:48] <desrt> pitti; this is why we must 'eject' ipods in the first place (even though we've already unmounted them)
[06:48] <pitti> ogra: there might be apps still accessing the drive, etc; the user needs to tell the OS that it wants to remove a drive
[06:49] <ogra> pitti, i meant a *really* low level ...

[08:17] <ogra> Keybuk, so you missed the decision that you have to fix up dapper in the 6 weeks delay while we others go on holiday :P
[08:17] <sivang> hehe
[08:17] <sivang> ogra: bare with him :)
[08:17] <netzmeister> hm thats interessting..
[08:17] <Keybuk> ogra: *shrug* I booked my holiday first <g>
[08:17] <ogra> :P
[08:17] <Keybuk> wouldn't mind that too much tbh, I've had not much to do this past week
[08:17] <netzmeister> you have a clean install of breezy?
[08:17] <Keybuk> udev is annoyingly working
[08:18] <Keybuk> and n-m doesn't work, but is impossible to fix in the time allowed
[08:18] <ogra> Keybuk, even with +6 weeks ? 
[08:18] <Kamion> Keybuk: on udev, I'd really like some investigation of that devfs helper bug
[08:18] <bddebian> netzmeister: No, I have all Dapper machines but I guess it's time to download breezy :-)
[08:18] <Kamion> we've had like ten reports of it
[08:18] <netzmeister> ah okay..
[08:18] <Keybuk> Kamion: I've been doing that today, and I can't figure it
[08:19] <Kamion> can you reproduce it?
[08:19] <Keybuk> yeah, I *reported* it :)
[08:19] <Kamion> oh :)
[08:19] <netzmeister> bddebian:  no why download breezy. Dapper comes in a few weeks..
[08:19] <Keybuk> do you run udevplug many times?
[08:19] <Amaranth> Keybuk: n-m almosts works for me, i blame the bcm43xx driver
[08:19] <Kamion> yeah, once per hw-detect
[08:19] <bddebian> netzmeister: Not if I can't boot it :-)
[08:19] <Keybuk> I *think* you get one new floppy device per hw-detect run
[08:19] <Keybuk> which would make sense
[08:19] <Kamion> that matches what I seemed to be seeing
[08:20] <Kamion> there'd be a udevplug run or two in partman as well, I think
[08:20] <Kamion> basically I was calling it fairly liberally when I needed new devices to be available, since you told me I could :)
=== mdke_ [n=matt@ubuntu/member/mdke]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
[08:20] <Keybuk> yeah, and I think what happens is that because each run causes a new "floppy ADD" event, that script gets run
[08:20] <Keybuk> so each new run gets a newly enumerated floppy device symlink
[08:21] <netzmeister> bddebian:  and there is really no output.. i can't believe it.. Kernel and no output.. :-)
[08:21] <Kamion> can it just store some state somewhere about which devices it's already seen?
[08:21] <Kamion> or even grep the existing symlinks
[08:21] <Keybuk> there's the udevdb state
[08:21] <Keybuk> there's udevd code to stop that happening though
[08:21] <Keybuk> that's what seems to be not working :)
[08:21] <bddebian> netzmeister: Well I mean I get no output on the hang, even with debug on.  I get all the normal bootup output right to the point of "Freeing initrd RAM..."
[08:22] <Keybuk> a "do we already have a symlink" check at the top of the script is a sufficient fix for us
[08:23] <Keybuk> you know what?  I'm an idiot
[08:23] <netzmeister> bddebian:  and before the line is nothing unusual? 
[08:23] <Keybuk> I just looked at the code again, and it's now glarying obvious why it doesn't work
[08:23] <Keybuk> Kamion: excellent reminder timing, clearly my brain is now in the right gear :p
[08:24] <bddebian> netzmeister: No, not that I can see.  I do get:  "ACPI: Finding DSDT Failed" or some such if I don't turn off acpi, but other than that, it looks pretty normal.
[08:25] <Kamion> heh
[08:27] <netzmeister> bddebian:  tell us your system configuration..
[08:27] <netzmeister> bddebian:  do you have a knoppix cd?
[08:27] <Keybuk> Kamion: it doesn't work because I use SYMLINK+= in the udev rule ... which means "add it to the list of existing symlinks"
[08:27] <bddebian> Hmm, not here, I don't think.  Let me go look, bbiam
[08:28] <Keybuk> the "keep only one symlink" code only affects SYMLINK= :)
[08:28] <Kamion> aha!
=== LaserJock is now known as LaserJock_away
[08:30] <raphink> anyone knows what /usr/bin/lsprop is for on ppc ?
[08:30] <raphink> there's no man, no --help|-h switches
[08:30] <raphink> and no comment in the code
[08:30] <raphink> and it's an old app from 1998
[08:31] <raphink> :s
[08:31] <crimsun> http://penguinppc.org/dev/
[08:31] <Keybuk> what does it do if you run it? :)
[08:32] <raphink> $ lsprop dirs
[08:32] <raphink> dirs             7362696e 0a757372 2f62696e 0a657463 2f696e69 742e640a
[08:32] <raphink> things like this
[08:32] <raphink> or longer
[08:32] <Kamion> it's for parsing stuff in /proc/device-tree/
[08:32] <Keybuk> sounds like the OF device tree
[08:32] <Kamion> really useful actually, I didn't know about that and had been looking at the files with vim ;-)
[08:32] <raphink> is this useful?
[08:32] <netzmeister> raphink:  checksum of the directorys?
[08:32] <Kamion> cjwatson@cairhien:/proc/device-tree$ lsprop compatible
[08:32] <Kamion> compatible       "PowerBook5,2"
[08:32] <Kamion>                  "MacRISC3"
[08:32] <raphink> netzmeister: not checksums no
[08:32] <Kamion> hell yes
[08:32] <Kamion>                  "Power Macintosh"
[08:33] <raphink> Kamion: I was about to write manpages for this soft
[08:33] <Kamion> it's a bit like udevinfo
[08:33] <raphink> but there's not even a -h|--help
[08:33] <Kamion> if you don't understand it, documenting it is probably not a good plan :)
[08:34] <raphink> all I know is that when run without an argument it runs itself on all files in the current dir
[08:34] <Kamion> I agree it's poorly (i.e. not) documented
[08:34] <raphink> Kamion: yes I guess
[08:34] <raphink> Kamion: if it's useful, I believe it should be documented
[08:34] <Kamion> cd into /proc/device-tree/ somewhere and that behaviour is a lot more useful
[08:34] <Kamion> I'm not arguing, but it's a developer debugging tool so it's not too urgent
[08:34] <raphink> ic
[08:35] <raphink> I am to remove backlight from the powerpc-utils package though
[08:35] <raphink> there's no man either, and the -h says it's obsolete
[08:35] <raphink> and should not be used anymore
[08:35] <raphink> so I guess if a program claims to be obsolete it's not worth keeping
[08:36] <bddebian> netzmeister: Apparently all my Breezy/knoppix/etc CD's are at home so I'll have to try tomorrow, thanks for your time!
[08:36] <slomo> infinity, lamont: please give-back gnome-user-share on ppc and liferea on amd64/ppc, thanks :)

[08:39] <Kamion> raphink: I'm not sure this is an ideal time to go on a rampage of removing obsolete stuff, personally
[08:40] <raphink> Kamion: well I went into this since I saw there was no manpages for this
[08:40] <Kamion> but I guess it's up to you
[08:40] <raphink> searching for the options to write a manpages
[08:40] <raphink> I saw this was obsolete
[08:40] <raphink> so i'm adding manpages for fnset
[08:41] <raphink> and at the same time removing backligth from the same package
[08:41] <Kamion> yes, I'm just saying that feature freeze is a poor time to remove stuff
[08:41] <raphink> hmm ok
[08:41] <Kamion> because we have a suboptimal amount of time to put it back if it turns out that somebody needed it after all
[08:41] <raphink> even things that are obviously obsolete and whose -h switch reports to another app?
[08:42] <raphink>   *************         WARNING         ************
