ajmitchhm, a binary upload02:30

ajmitchdid you create this tarball yourself?02:36
nictukuit's upstream02:36
nictukuyes, I am upstream02:36
MarioMeyerwe are both upstream and packaging, ajmitch02:36
nictukuMarioMeyer, I'm not packaging nwu right now, though02:36
ajmitchit's still a good idea to separate packaging from upstream work02:36
ajmitchI imagine that the coulud be useful for other distributions, or derivatives02:37
ajmitchand you don't want to make a full release just for a packaging change :)02:37
nictukuhmm02:37
nictukuhow do you think I should organize that in the subversion rep?02:38
nictukucurrently it's all in trunk/ and tags/, with debian/ being part of the upstream distro package02:38

=== SloMoSnail [n=slomo@p5486F763.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu
bmontymarcin`: are you refering to flashplugin-nonfree?03:22
crimsunmarcin`: 1) it was illegally distributed; 2) it was outdated; 3) flashplugin-nonfree is the way to go03:23
crimsunmarcin`: I asked for it to be removed, and it was for those reasons.03:24
nictukunonfree is the way to go?03:24
crimsunflashplugin-nonfree as opposed to the obsoleted flashplayer-mozilla, yes03:24
crimsunnote that flashplayer-mozilla breaks the license completely, as we're not allowed to distribute that binary03:25
nictukuyou mean flashplayer-mozilla is the way to go, right?03:25
marcin`bmonty: not - to flashplugin-mozilla03:25
nictukuoh03:25
crimsunno, I very much mean flashplugin-nonfree is the way to go.03:25
marcin`crimsun: well ok - but the thing is that now my flash plugin doesn;t work03:26
marcin`crimsun: I'll try to reinstall flashplayer-nonfree03:26
crimsunmarcin`: please check the dependencies, and file a bug.03:26
marcin`/s/flashplayer/flashplugin03:26
marcin`crimsun: now it's not about dependencies03:27
marcin`crimsun: if it doesn't work after I removed flashplugin-mozilla03:27
bmontycrimsun: why do we have multiple flash players anyway?  shouldn't it the shockwave player and the GNU one when it is more mature?03:27
crimsunflashplugin-mozilla?03:27

=== Amaranth [n=amaranth@ubuntu/member/amaranth] has joined #ubuntu-motu
marcin`crimsun: sorry - it was flashplayer...03:31

marcin`crimsun: yes03:32
crimsunmarcin`: which browser?03:32
marcin`crimsun: now I reinstalled flashplugin-nonfree and it doesn't work with ffox and epiphany03:32

marcin`?03:34
=== irvin [n=vx@ubuntu/member/irvin] has joined #ubuntu-motu

crimsundid you execute what bmonty mentioned?03:35
marcin`bmonty: thanks03:35
bmontywith a "sudo" of course :)03:35
marcin`crimsun: yes it helped03:35
crimsunexcellent.03:36
marcin`you really should add info about this in package description03:36
marcin`or add this to postinst script...03:37
nictukushould I show someone else my package before sending to revu? It's a python library, required for nwu (my implementation of the NetworkWideUpdates spec)03:37
marcin`another thing is that these ^&*^&*& 'nice guys' from Macromedia could create Flash 8 plugin for Linux03:38
nictukuI don't want to waste reviewers time with maybe a crappy package03:38
whiprushnictuku: are you the guy doing NWU?03:38
nictukuwhiprush, yes03:38
whiprushthat's awesome.03:38

nictukuwe're looking for volunteer testers03:39
crimsunbmonty: need to modify postinst so that a fresh install will invoke update-flashplugin03:39
whiprushnictuku: I have it pulled from your repo but have had no time.03:39
crimsunbmonty: currently it fails to do so, which explains marcin`'s symptoms03:39
bmontycrimsun: yup, I can work on that over the next couple days03:39
crimsunbmonty: great, thanks.03:39
nictukuwhiprush, statistics say you probably got a buggy version :-)03:39
whiprusher, I meant nictuku03:39
whiprushI look forward to playing with it.03:40
whiprushdebian/ubuntu has needed a free-RHN type thing for a while03:41
nictukunice, please let me and MarioMeyer - which is also in the development team - know how did it work for you03:41
whiprushwhen I get to playing with it I will file bugs03:41
whiprushiirc you guys had trac setup and all that already03:42
bmontycrimsun: the package actually already has a postinst to download the plugin...odd03:42
crimsunbmonty: right, but it seems to fail03:42
nictukuyes https://dev.ubuntubrasil.org/trac/nwu03:42
nictukupython-sysinfo is a requirment, though, and I'm trying to make it go to universe first03:42
crimsun(chasing more ALSA boogs atm, or I'd file a bug)03:43
nictukuthen I'll try to push nwu-agent and nwu-server03:43
bmontycrimsun: I think there is already a bug open for this03:43
crimsunk03:43
nictukuthen, if reviewers "ok" the packages, I'll write an ITP bug in debian and ask for inclusion in ubuntu's main03:43

reggaemanuhello06:33
Erlanglo06:34
reggaemanuwhat the purpose of the new package evince-gtk (version 0.5.1) that appears today on the universe repository ? there is already a "evince" package (version 0.5.2) :/06:35
crimsunit strips the gnome bits06:35
crimsunwe need it for xubuntu-desktop06:35
reggaemanucrimsun, oh, ok !06:35
crimsunprobably best if janimo knows about 0.5.2, though he's very active, and I'm sure it'll be updated shortly06:35
reggaemanui haven't think about xfce06:35
crimsunyes, there are other desktops =)06:36
reggaemanualso, the checkinstall package for dapper doesn't work06:36
crimsunthat's not necessarily a bad thing ;)06:36
reggaemanuand is out of date06:36
reggaemanu(since there is a 1.6.0 version on the checkinstall website, with a .deb)06:37
=== dholbach smirks at crimsun :)
dholbach.debs don't help, we need the source package06:37
crimsunwell, even Debian only has 1.5.3-306:37
dholbachand if we don't know what it changes, what it breaks and what it fixes, it can't go in atm06:38
reggaemanucrimsun, yes, but if there is a package in the repository, it should works lol06:38
dholbachwe're in UpstreamVersionFreeze06:38
reggaemanuyes, i know06:38
dholbachin FeatureFreeze and UIFreeze too06:38
reggaemanuanyway this the 1.6.0 package works fine on dapper :D06:38
crimsunBug #281823: checkinstall: filesystem coruption06:39
crimsunthat is an AWESOME reason.06:39
G0SUBdholbach: I installed a custom kernel and now usplash doesn't work ... I see it only when shutting down or rebooting but no progress bar06:39
G0SUBany idea how to troubleshoot it?06:39
sladenG0SUB: have you rebuilt an initramfs with it in?06:41
G0SUBsladen: not explicitly ... how to do that?06:41
G0SUBsladen: any idea?06:44
sladenG0SUB: sudo mkinitramfs `uname -r`06:46
G0SUBok06:46
sladenG0SUB: what are you requring a custom kernel for?06:46
sladenG0SUB: if it's a feature that you require, it would be better to get it into the standard kernel.06:46
G0SUBsladen: I usually use the CK patchset and also because of the fact that CPU Freq. scaling doesn't work with the stock kernel06:47
G0SUBi will file a bug on this06:47
G0SUBwrt the speedstep issue06:47
Erlangck rulez06:48
G0SUBErlang: heh06:49
G0SUBsladen: where do I put the initramfs image after generating it? /boot?06:49
ErlangMy mouse is very jumpy with the standard kernel in Eclipse.  RT and CK solve the problem.06:50
G0SUBFYI I don't use a initrd image06:50

dolsonok, something's not right... this is the second time in a week that I came back to my PC after a couple hours and the HDD activity is going nuts, but the screen is blanked (gnome-screensaver) and the system is totally unresponsive09:17
dholbachcan you sssh into that box?09:18
dholbachand check what's working it so hard?09:19
dolsonI rebooted it09:19
dolsonit's this box, actually09:19
dholbachhrm09:19
dholbachso no debugging09:19
dholbachis /var/ full?09:19
dholbachcups doesn't like that and spins like mad09:19
dolsonyou know, I hit Ctrl+Alt+F5 and got to a login after several minutes09:19
dolsonso I tried logging in. it took about a minute for it to prompt for the password, and then 5 minutes after entering the password some of the MOTD text or whatever it is showed up. I waited 30 more minutes and it still never gave me the bash prompt09:20
dholbachthat's not nice09:20
Erlangdolson: It happened to me once.09:21
dolsonthere's over 1GB free on / which is where var is.. so that's not it. plus I don't have a printer, lol09:21
littlepauldholbach, What is meant in flight 5 with "Graphical Power Tools" http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/flight5 I see that just gdebi is described. Do you have a hint where I can find more information?09:22
Erlangdolson: It happened to me just last week.  I had to reset too I could not get the system to come back on it's feet.09:23
ErlangI linked the problem to Gaim that I had retried the night before.  I have not used it since.09:23
dholbachlittlepaul: you should maybe ask the guys who wrote the page, maybe ask in #ubuntu-doc09:23
dolsonErlang: hmm.. that's very strange.09:23
dolsonErlang: I was running gnome-xchat or whatever it is, Gaim, Evolution, and Blam!.. shouldn't lock up though09:24
ErlangMost of the time I only use KDE apps and never had that problem.09:24
dolsonI blame the government09:25
ErlangGAIM is still the potential culprit.  If I had some guts I'd setup something to diagnosticate that but I need ths computer to work.09:26
dolsonI'm not sure how I could test that09:27
ErlangThere must be some process monitoring tools somewhere.  I seriously suspect Gaim has it's the only non-usual app I was running when it happened.  It may be something else gnomey though...09:28
dolsonthe only other thing that I could link it to is the fact that I did some updates and didn't reboot when it told me to.. (hal)09:28
dolsonbut I don't think that was the case the first time it happened09:29
ErlangI never reboot when I'm told.  That reminds me too much of Windows.09:29
dolsonI know...09:30
dolsonnext it's gonna be "Ubuntu has detected that you wish to press spacebar. You must reboot to acknowledge this change"09:31
ErlangI'll be back to Debian by then...09:31
dolsonin all the years I ran Debian, I only ever rebooted during a power failure long enough to knock down my UPS or after a kernel upgrade, and even then sometimes I waited for the next power failure before booting into the new kernel09:32
Erlangthat's the Linux way...09:32
=== Erlang looks for bugs on Gaim
=== tdjb [i=tdjb@216.222.48.32] has joined #ubuntu-motu
LaserJockI reboot all the time. I shut off my computer at least once a day. But that is just me09:35
dolsonyeah, it is09:35
dolsonErlang: do you run Beagle, by any chance? I didn't have it installed the first time it happened... but you never know..09:36
ErlangNo I don't.09:36
dolsonit's sitting there right now using between 66 and 95%09:36
psusihas anyone noticed lately that certain upgrades in dapper that tell you to reboot, when you chose to reboot from the gui, it just sits there?09:37
dolsonyeah.. I thought that was because I was running a custom kernel though09:38
psusiohh, I am too I guess.... I build straight from linus's git tree frequently09:39
psusiwith a few local modifications09:39
dolsonI used an -rt patch for a while09:40
dolsonbut not lately.. this was a lockup on a normal kernel09:40
ErlangI'm moved from -rt to -ck lately.  I must say I'm satisfied.09:41
dolsondo you do a lot of work with JACK?09:41
dolsonoh cool, the GPL was held up in court. nice. I missed that news yesterday09:42
ErlangNo.  I don't do audio processing. I've found -rt and -ck patch improve the responsiveness of Eclipse and Java apps.09:42
dolsonah, well the -ck isn't so good for realtime audio stuff09:43
ErlangI'm better off with -ck then.  It seems more stable than -rt.09:44
dolsonyeah, well, rt is almost 2MB of a patch, heh. that's nothing to snort at. there's bound to be problems with it. I don't remember how big ck is, but it's more widely used and generally stabler09:45
dolsonStudio to Go! ships with the ck patches, apparently. so I'm guessing that it's a bit better than a vanilla kernel for audio09:46
ErlangI've read ck is configurable for some different types of load.  I have not looked much into that though.09:47
dolsonit has a scheduler for non-priveleged users to access near-realtime sceduler, and it's transparent.. pretty cool, although not needed if you want to allow FIFO access to a user via PAM or set_rlimits or realtime-lsm09:48
=== G0SUB [n=ghoseb@ubuntu/member/g0sub] has joined #ubuntu-motu
ErlangI'll start gaim for a few.09:51
psusiI don't think its a kernel issue though because a shutdown -h now from the console works fine09:56
psusiit's just the gui can't seem to shutdown after certain upgrades09:56
dolsonpsusi: I'll test that next time I have to reboot and see what happens10:06
psusiit's only after my ~weekly update10:07
