sivangfabbione: still here?12:10
wasabiI wonder what about Ubuntu and our system, udev, hal, etc, is unsuitable for the n770. I suspect the memory footprint is going to be higher.12:12
wasabiProbaby something that should be fixed anyways though.12:12
sivanganybody has an idea if when giving -o device_node to mkisofs it acts as cdrecord and "burns" the image directly to a CD?12:13
sivangit's described that way on the man page, but seems rather odd12:13
HrdwrBoBI highly doubt it12:14
_ionUnless mkisofs contains some magic for burning a CD instead of just cat'ing the image to a device, my guess would be "no".12:14
wasabiit might be possible if the driver for the drive supports burning.12:15
wasabiWhich I dunno.12:15
sivangwhat why is it mentioend to you can give -o device_node where device_node = "correspond directly to the device name of the optical disc writer.."12:15
mjg59wasabi: Burning is slightly more complicated than that, I'm afraid12:15
mjg59Otherwise we could just use dd12:15
sivangyes, that what I Had in mind12:15
sivangmjg59: so I guess I do need to create backup images on the HD, and then use cdrecord to toss them to a CDR/CDRW12:16

=== Chipzz just installed plesk :P
Chipzzmust say, from all isv software I have seen yet, at least they understand what "dpkg" and "apt-get" are12:17
Chipzznot entirely, but at least a bit :)12:18
sivangChipzz: is it a some kind of a web serveR?12:18
tepsipakkiwould it make sense to provide support for ISV:s to help make native deb-packages?12:18
sivang_ion: right, so cdrecord is the "driver" :)12:18
Chipzzsivang: plesk is a control panel12:18
tepsipakkiI've just tried to package Matlab...12:18
Chipzzsomething like cpanel12:18
Chipzztepsipakki: they actually do support debian sarge and ubuntu 5.0412:19
sivangChipzz: why use an ISV software for that then?12:19
Chipzzbut they have certain custom packages12:19
mrothmjg59: hrm, bug 35741 seems to be a duplicate of what I was about to file, but its filed against mesa for some reason12:19
UbugtuMalone bug 35741 in mesa "Missing support for 945GM chipset" [Normal,Unconfirmed]  http://launchpad.net/bugs/3574112:19
tepsipakkiChipzz: yes, they do. Matlab builds on sarge, but they still ship 3CD:s full of stuff =)12:19
Chipzzsivang: because $dumb_user_wanting_a_webpage doesn't know shit about configuring apache and shouldn't know12:20
Chipzzsivang: this is for the company I work for, we offer webspace with php/mail/etc against bottom prices ;)12:20
Chipzzamongst several things12:21
HrdwrBoBChipzz: I used to sysadmin for a webhost.. we wrote our own12:21
ChipzzHrdwrBoB: and how much time and money did you have for it? ;)12:22
Chipzzwe actually have a front-end for plesk to do the actual creation of the domains, and then offer plesk to the users to give them a certain amount of control over their domains12:23
Chipzzcurrently installed on rh, but going to migrate to debian/sarge12:23
HrdwrBoBwell you have to pay for plesk12:23
Chipzzwe do have a license allready :)12:23
HrdwrBoBand I was working for them fulltime.. so the economics were on our side12:23

mdzinfinity:     * Update dhcp.conf files in Debian packaging <-- what's that about?01:05

dholbachhey seb12809:18
pittihey dholbach, hey seb128 09:18
dholbachhey pitti09:18
dholbachMez: what do you mean? versioning as in packaging?09:18
seb128hey dholbach pitti09:18
Mezdholbach: well with my app - we've renamed a function09:19
Mezso we need to bump the version of the so.09:19
Mezbut I dont know whats the best way to bump it09:19
Mezsee - most things talk about major and minor 09:20
Mezbut there's 3 parts of the version09:20
Mezx.y.z09:20
dholbachMez: http://www.openismus.com/documents/linux/using_libraries/using_libraries.shtml and http://www.openismus.com/documents/linux/building_libraries/building_libraries.shtml might be good reads09:20
pittiogra: can you please retroactively add CVE-2006-1335 to the gnome-screensaver changelog for 2.14.0-0ubuntu1?09:21
TreenaksI'm having kerning problems with my fonts in firefox.. stuff like 'fix' looks distorted, and some other things as well09:23
infinityMez: ABI changes change the minor (and the SOVER), API additions (that don't affect the ABI's compat) bump the minor, bugfixes bump the pachlevel.09:23
infinityMez: In a nutshell, anyway.09:24
Mezinfinity, well we changed from using keyReleaseEvent to keyPressEvent.09:24
Mez(changed the name of a function) b09:24
Mezso I have the choice to either add to the soname09:25
infinityMez: Changed the name of the function without providing a wrapper for it?09:25
seb128Mez: http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/manual.html#Libtool-versioning09:25
infinityMez: If you didn't provide a wrapper (for ABI compat), then you're in SOVER bump land.09:25
Mezinfinity, see - we didnt think of that until now ... but I'm planning on adding a wrapper ;)09:25
Mezthough that might be not worth it09:26
Mezinfinity, SOVER = major right ?09:26
seb128is anything using your lib?09:26
Mezseb128, only stuff within the application itself09:26
Meznothing outside of it09:26
seb128you don't have to bother about the SOVER09:26
infinityMez: Traditionally, SOVER is major, yes.  (but not necessarily)09:26
seb128you just update libtool versions and it makes the job for you09:26
infinityMez: If it's a static library, then all bets are off.09:26
Mezseb128, each plugin is a library that links into the main library09:27
=== pitti [n=pitti@ubuntu/member/pitti] has joined #ubuntu-devel
Mezinfinity, .so and .la :D09:27
seb128plugins are not versionned usually09:27
infinityMez: Well, s/static/private/ then for the same results.09:27
seb128they are not a shared lib09:27
infinityMez: Shared objects are only truly "shared" if something other than your app will use them.09:27
Mezseb128, yet the things they link to in the main app ARE09:28
Mezinfinity, well - they may :D09:28
Meznoone does yet - but we want to let them09:28
seb128if that's reserved to the app you don't care09:28
Mezseb128, i care when people get compile errors09:28
lifelessMithrandir: killing gss stopped it until I rebooted09:28
Mez  /opt/kde3/lib64/libkatapult.so.0: undefined reference to `KatapultDisplay::keyReleaseEvent(QKeyEvent*)'09:28
=== freeflying [n=freeflyi@61.190.65.34] has joined #ubuntu-devel
seb128usually the app is in sync with its own source :p09:29
infinityseb128: Not if it's KDE...09:29
=== infinity coughs.
seb128lol09:29
seb128right :)09:29
Mezseb128, well - people are building external plugins - that arent part of the app "proper" but are seperate packages09:29
seb128they should build plugins adapted to the app version09:30
seb128changing the soname will not change that fact09:30
seb128if the plugin uses a wrong API, soname changed or not it'll not build09:30
=== j^ [n=j@e178040218.adsl.alicedsl.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel
fabbioneMakefile.am:24: BUILD_LINUXDOC does not appear in AM_CONDITIONAL09:31
Mezseb128, true ;) but we want people to be able to use old plugins with newer versions09:31
fabbioneso does anybody remember what provides that to aclocal?09:31
seb128Mez: so don't rename a function :p09:31
infinityMez: Then you need to make the library ABI compatible.09:31
infinityMez: Nothing else you can do to "fix" that, really.09:31
Mezinfinity, i know - which is why i'm adding the wrapper as we speak09:32
siretarthi09:32
Mezinfinity, though now I've done that - I should increase minor - yes?09:34
Mezor should I increase major just because I made a release without that wrapper09:34
seb128increment the age and the revision numbers if you added a new function09:37
seb128hum09:37
Mezagain though - there has been a release without the wrapper ...09:37
seb128you can declare that one was a bug and ignore it :)09:38

Kamionwe can probably fit this lot in, but you're not the only one wanting the space12:47
henoKamion: No, I can imagine12:47
Kamionwe might have to make it amd64/i386 only (they're much better off for space on the live CD)12:47
henoI guess many more languages will have support this time12:48

Seveasinfinity, according to the changelog you applied _ion/Pygi's madwifi patch to l-r-m -- it seems not to work though since NM won't recognize my atheros card as WPA capable although the madwifi driver in the l-r-m package from _ion/Pygi does01:06
infinitySeveas: Erm, which package from them are you referring to?01:06
infinitySeveas: URL?01:06
Seveastheir l-r-m package -- which is no longer available since the patch is supposed to be in the official l-r-m01:06
infinitySeveas: Well, the -18- packages they were distributing were built by me...01:07
infinitySeveas: With the same patch...01:07
Seveashmm, odd01:07
infinitySeveas: Like, identical.  The only difference between those packages and these are control file changes.01:07
Seveasthat means I'll have to apt-get source and poke around 01:07
infinity(Well, and being built against the -19- kernels)01:08
Seveasthanks for the information - I'll get back to you if their really is something wrong01:08
infinityPlease do.01:08
infinityI wanted that patch in the mainline LRM specifically so it could get more widespread testing.01:08
infinity(It seems pretty obviously harmless, even if it doesn't work, it can't really hurt anything...)01:09
Seveasindeed01:09
infinitySeveas: Do you know if the NM 0.6.0 kids are seriously looking at backporting background scanning to madwifi-old?01:11
infinity(I suspect it would require too many architectural changes to the code, but maybe it's simpler than that..)01:11
Seveasinfinity, they are seriously thinking about it but I have serious doubt about the doability of it...01:11
infinityYeah, me too.  It'll still be pretty nice.01:12
Seveasindeed01:12
infinityOther than support for new devices (which is going to require madwifi-ng in some hacked-up fashion, *sigh*), background scanning is the only complaint about madwifi-old.01:12
Seveasmadwifi-ng is on serious crack01:14
SeveasI have serious doubts about it being in a good enough shape for dapper soon01:15
Mithrandirheno: you just want the packages onto the live cd, right?01:15
infinityIt's starting to look like a much better codebase, technically, but it's got a long way to go to shake the bugs out that come from a major code reorg.01:15
infinitySeveas: It'll never be in good enough shape for dapper, but for some new devices, we have no choice.  We ship a half-broken driver, or no driver.  \o/01:15

infinityRiddell: Around?01:17
DVSoftwarei got one question, and i hope someone is willing to help me01:18
Kamionperhaps it should go only in the live seed and we should make espresso keep it installed only if you specify the relevant a11y options01:18
DVSoftwareit's regarding ubuntu's hardware detection method on livecd01:18
TheMusoKamion: Is that trivial?01:18
KamionTheMuso: relatively, yes01:18
Kamionit would then go in the ship seed too so that the regular install CD can install it01:19
henoKamion: in that case that seems ideal01:19
DVSoftwareactally, i'm developing my custom livedvd for learning and demonstration purposes filled with all kind of software01:19

Kamionwe basically just do dpkg-reconfigure -fnoninteractive xserver-xorg in the live filesystem01:21
KamionDVSoftware: ^--01:21
DVSoftwarehmmmm01:21
DVSoftwarewhat that command do exactly?01:21
=== heno forgot that the install CD now uses gfxboot
Kamion'apt-get source casper' for more details01:21
KamionDVSoftware: tells X to reconfigure itself for the current system01:21
DVSoftwareehm.....01:21
Kamionusing its debconf maintainer scripts01:22
DVSoftwarebut how it tells it to X... when i try to use X's autodetection it fails01:22
DVSoftwareproblem is that my livedvd is not debian based :(01:22
Kamionit's not X's native autodetection, it's the Debian/Ubuntu maintainer scripts01:22
KamionDVSoftware: oh, we can't help you then01:23
DVSoftwarehmmmm01:23
sladenDVSoftware: X's install scripts use discover1 to select the driver and then build a xorg.conf based on that01:23
Kamionthe graphics card detection on our live CDs is intrinsically based on using the Debian/Ubuntu maintainer scripts, which are a couple of thousand lines of code01:23
Riddellinfinity: ok, thanks01:23
DVSoftwarecan you point me to that script so i can (hopefuly) customize it for my needs?01:24
Kamionsladen: but if it's not Debian-based he won't have our discover1/discover1-data patches01:24
fabbionesladen: is that to add the support for it?01:24
KamionDVSoftware: apt-get source xserver-xorg, see debian/xserver-xorg.*01:24

Kamioner, 'apt-get source xorg' on breezy01:24

pittifabbione: did you see my msg wrt. git-core's main inclusion report from the other day?01:25
sladenfabbione: yes, it's about a 10 line delta, aliasing i945GM to the i945G code-path in most places01:25
fabbionesladen: ok.. go ahead01:25
Kamionit's not a standalone script and relies on a lot of our infrastructure01:25
fabbionepitti: no i think i missed it?01:25
DVSoftwareKamion: i'm not going to reimplement it from scratch :)01:25
TheMusoMithrandir: I should have a majorly trimmed down accessibility startup script for casper some time later tomorrow my time, as I will be finalizing the move of most package-specific settings into the packages themselves.01:25
KamionDVSoftware: trying to customise it on a non-Debian-based system would be nearly equivalent01:25

sivang(trying to build cisco vpn client which needs to build CiscoVPN kernel module)01:27
fabbionesivang: you only need the headers01:27
Aegirsivang, Make sure you have gcc-3.4 and the kernel headers, that's about it, really. Do an export GCC=gcc-3.4 before compiling, and your set. Atleast that's the method working for me.01:28
fabbionepitti: ahahha "please practice safe merge ;-)."01:29
sivangfabbione: k, thanks. weird thing, the cisco installer tries to run 'modules' target from the include/linux tree, and can't find this target and fails.01:29
fabbionepitti: ok.. is the new source already in debian?01:29
Kamionmjg59: interesting that they've stopped doing the HFS wrapper thing; according to http://developer.apple.com/technotes/tn/tn1150.html#HFSWrapper "Apple software currently initializes all HFS Plus volumes with an HFS wrapper"01:29
sivangAegir: thanks, why 3.4 specifically ?01:29
Kamionmjg59: so I suspect that they've just ripped plain HFS support out of the firmware - sigh01:30
pittifabbione: save merge> :)01:30
infinitysivang: Because in breezy, that's what we built the kernel with.  If you're running dapper, his advice is stale, we use gcc-4.0 :)01:30
pittifabbione: I think so, we can just sync if mdz approves the new version01:30
pittifabbione: 1.1.4->1.1.5 is safe, no idea about 1.1.3->1.1.401:30
Kamionmjg59: which means either we need to add format support to hfsplus (APSL isn't free enough for main, right? wrong?), or we need to add an -hfsplus option to mkisofs, or both01:30

Keybukdoes my comment make sense?05:53
dholbachKeybuk: didn't read it yet - which bug number was that (just if you have it)05:54
dholbachgot it05:54
Keybukbasically I'm suggesting that instead of having the current system05:54
Keybukthe ideal UI is pretty much Serpentine/SJ on CD writers05:54
Keybukuse HAL to look for USB-connected pilots05:54
Keybukthen give them a drop-down like:05:54
KeybukDevice: [ Palm Pilot 9000 on USB           ] 05:55
Keybuk        : Palm Pilot 8200 on USB           :05:55
Keybuk        : Pilot plugged into Serial Port 1 :05:55
Keybuk        : Pilot plugged into Serial Port 2 :05:55
Keybukwhere the first two were "detected" automatically, and the other two just hard-code /dev/ttyS0, /dev/ttyS1 for stuff we can't detect05:55
Keybukthat way we don't need /dev/pilot, and I can get rid of it05:55
dholbachhrmmmmm, since upstream is not very active, this is the "ideal" case05:56
Keybuk(I'm likely to get rid of /dev/pilot anyway, as it doesn't work)05:56

KamionKinnison: pretty much anything in the "braindump from UI sprint" section of UbuntuExpress/ToDo is fair game05:59

KinnisonKamion: I'd like to get this g-p-m upload finished since I've been working on it for nearly four days (with interruptions :-)06:00
KinnisonKamion: once I've got this done, I'll go look at the ToDo06:00
dholbachthanks Keybuk, i just thought we might apply some udev magic and make palm devices happy again06:01
KamionKinnison: sure, fortunately I'm actually beginning to run out of HYPER-URGENT things06:01
Keybukdholbach: sadly there is no udev magic06:01
Keybukignoring not-on-USB pilots for a moment, which don't get the symlink06:01
Keybukit seems that USB pilots contain two serial port interfaces06:02
Keybukonly one of which is useful for gnome-pilot06:02
Kamionfrom a functionality point of view, the timezone->country->locale logic, apt-setup, and network configuration are the missing pieces I know of06:02
dholbachKeybuk: ok, thanks06:02
Keybukbecause of the way these things work, the events for each serial port device get processed by a separate udevd process06:02
Keybukso without having some kind of "BIG UDEV LOCK" there's no way to provide "enumeration" of them06:02
Keybuk(which is why we can't just have /dev/pilot, /dev/pilot1, etc.)06:02
Keybukand helpfully, there's no difference in identification between the two interfaces06:03
Keybukthey're just both identified as a serial interface06:03
Keybukso there's nothing we can put in the udev rule to select the right one06:03
Keybukand even better, it's usually the second one06:03
Keybukso we could just do "only make the symlink for odd-numbered interfaces"06:03
Keybukbut that obviously breaks if you have a USB serial converter plugged in first <g>06:04
Keybukas then the pilot would have ttyUSB1 and ttyUSB206:04
Keybukthe icing on the cake is that old pilots have just one serial interface06:04
Keybuk*breathe*06:04
Keybukso yeah, that's why /dev/pilot is broken, and why I don't think it can be fixed06:04
Keybuk(it's also why /dev/cdrom, /dev/dvd, etc. are broken if you have multiple drives)06:05
dholbachpoor palm users :/06:05
Keybukand I'm more inclined to suggest the software is fixed in the first place06:05
=== Hirion [n=hirion@draugr.de] has left #ubuntu-devel []
mjg59The applications should just be fixed to try all available pilot devices06:06
mjg59Palms have names, IIRC06:06
Keybukmjg59: not only do palms have names, but they have unique vendor and device ids for each model06:06
Keybukso the software could even intelligently offer features if it bothered to use HAL06:06

DizietFirstly, make the existing build system build everything twice.06:52
DizietSecondly, make a script which transforms a firefox source package into a firefox-dbg source package.06:53
dholbachwhat about   dh_strip --dbg-package=firefox-dbg  ?06:53
DizietNeither of these are very nice :-).06:53
DizietTo debug it properly you want to compile it with -O0.06:53
DizietAnd against debug/static versions of the other libs.06:53
DizietBut I could do the --dbg-package thing fairly easily I suppose.06:54
dholbachI'm not quite sure I understand the technicalities behind that, but wouldn't be the dh_strip-version a good first step? before building a noopt version?06:54
DizietRight.06:54
Diziet(Is --dbg-package new ?  I remember us talking about this kind of thing in Docklands.  I didn't realise it had been put into debhelper.)06:55
dholbachI can't remember it not being there, but that doesn't say anything :))))))06:55

KamionRiddell: according to ethnologue there are about 70 million Bengali speakers, which is roughly on a par with German08:40

KamionI'm inclined to trust d-i on this, I know a lot of work has gone into that file08:40
pittiISTR that it were way more, too08:40
Riddellwikipaedia says 196 million native,08:41
pittiKamion: but it probably depends on the source08:41
Keybukpitti: meh, I don't *like* it ... but it's a dependency of n-m 0.608:41
KamionGerman is at 101 million, for comparison08:41
Kamionpitti: that's a "corrected" figure08:41
Keybukand it does work better than xsupplicant in my experience08:41

janimowikipedia says 270 millionranked as the 4th most spoken08:41
Kamionand the number of native English speakers is listed at around 309 million08:41
Keybukand with NM providing the configuration, it has worked perfectly here today in all my testing08:42

siretartwell, I spent now about an hour fixing some debian bugs about wpasupplicant08:52
Keybuksiretart: Debian's package seemed somewhat different from Ubuntu's?08:52
slomosiretart: i asked him to do it as there were greater changes in packaging and you and crimsun were noted in the changelog. so i thought it would be far easier for one of you to merge the changes08:52
siretartKeybuk: we worked on getting it merged, so that ubuntu's package doesn't need to be diverged anymore08:52
siretartslomo: no problem. I wasn't aware that this hasn't happened yet08:53
janimopitti, similar situation with xubuntu-system-tools which is very close to gnome-system-tools08:53
janimoon the plus side is still better than duplication by rewriting from scratch08:53
siretartKeybuk: I'll look at your upload in a minute and merge it with debian's svn08:54
mjg59Evaso2: Last time I checked, the prism54 softmac code didn't work. Has that changed?08:54
sivangjanimo: who's the upstream authors?08:54
siretartKeybuk: I wanted to have 0.4.8 in ubuntu anyway, but havn't yet prepared a UVF exception request08:54
KaiL_wpa going into main? maybe even on the final dapper-CD? ;)08:54
janimosivang, gnome devels genarlly I dunno08:54
Kamioner, Brazil => Portuguese of course, not Spanish. sigh, obviously not quite awake ...08:54
Evaso2mjg59: yes it is quite usable without encryption08:54
PygiKail_: hehe ;)08:54
Keybuksiretart: other than the prettyfying, I don't think there's anything interesting in the upload08:54
siretartKeybuk: you suggested that wpasupplicant should only run via pre-up.d scripts08:55
KeybukI copied the patch from the DNM repository, and the control file snippet for wpa_gui08:55
Keybukthe rules changes were "minimal"08:55
Keybukright, that was already done in Ubuntu08:55
siretartKeybuk: this doesn't cover all use cases for wpasupplicant08:55
mjg59Evaso2: Ok. If you can point me at the source for the working version, I'll see what I can do08:55
Kamionjanimo: you might want to bump evince-gtk to 0.5.2, BTW08:55
Keybukwhy not?08:55
janimoKamion, yep planning that08:55
siretartKeybuk: there are people who want to use wpasupplicant as roaming daemon, waiting for the interface to come up08:55
Keybuksiretart: why is that a valid usecase though? :p08:55
siretartKeybuk: I've prepared a new package where there is a switch to choose what mode to use for wpasupplicant08:56
siretartKeybuk: as a replacement for waproamd08:56
Keybukthat's like saying dhclient3 should be running all the time waiting for the interface to come up <g>08:56
Keybukahh, I think we don't have to care about that in Ubuntu08:56
Keybuk"one true way to run it" is fine08:56
Keybukand actually makes it a damned sight easier to integrate with other things08:56
siretartKeybuk: well. therefore I built a switch in /etc/default/wpasupplicant where the user can choose what mode he wants to use08:57
siretartKeybuk: it is NOT enabled by default. 08:57
Keybukyeah, the trouble with that switch is it makes it harder for things like NM to start and stop wpa_supplicant and modify its configuration :)08:57
Keybukand makes it harder for us to support it08:57

=== LaserJock_ [n=laserjoc@ubuntu/member/laserjock] has joined #ubuntu-devel
Keybukif we know that it's only run on a running interface, and only takes care of that single interface, like dhclient3, then it's easier to support08:58
siretartKeybuk: hm. how is nm actually starting wpasupplicant? via init script?!08:58
Keybukdirectly I think08:58
siretartKeybuk: then thats no problem anyway08:58
Evaso2mjg59:  http://jbnote.free.fr/prism54usb/data/code/tarballs/islsm-workbench-latest.tar.bz208:58
pittiKeybuk: wpasupplicant needs LSBified init scripts08:58
Luresiretart: n-m calls it directly08:58
pittiKeybuk: s/s$//08:58
Keybukpitti: it does :p08:58
Keybukpitti: wait for the next cron.daily08:58
siretartKeybuk: just leave the init scripts alone, they are disabled by default08:58
pittiKeybuk: ah, cool08:59
Keybuksiretart: well, I was going to take the init script and default file out08:59
Keybukand then change the pre-up and post-down scripts to invoke and kill wpa_supplicant directly08:59
Keybukdepending on how that interacts with network-manager08:59
pittiKeybuk: ok, pacakging looks good, I'll do a quick source code review before I approve it (but after meeting...)08:59
Evaso2mjg59: firmware http://daemonizer.de/prism54/prism54-fw/08:59
siretartKeybuk: have you had a look at our integration in the experimental tree?08:59
crimsunKeybuk: that sounds sane enough.08:59
Keybuksiretart: has it changed from what's in Ubuntu?09:00
Evaso2mjg59: or here for an explanation of firmware http://jbnote.free.fr/prism54usb/PrismFirmwares.html09:00
siretartKeybuk: well, we support 3 modes there09:00
Keybukthe current stuff in Ubuntu is kinda buggy <g>09:00
siretartKeybuk: with the default being 'do not start it at all'09:00
KeybukI'm not disagreeing that it's good in Debian to do that09:00
Keybukhowever in Ubuntu I've been systematically purging all multi-mode operation from everything09:00
siretartKeybuk: one mode is as waproamd replacement, as ever in debian. the second is like you suggest09:00
Keybukand making things only work one way09:00
Evaso2mjg59: do u need somthing else?09:00
mjg59Evaso2: No, that should be ok09:00
mjg59Oh, argh, another copy of the madwifi tree09:01
siretartKeybuk: the third is with direct integration to /etc/network/interfaces like wireless-tools09:01
mjg59WHY MUST PEOPLE BE SO MEAN?09:01
Keybuksiretart: isn't that just a pre-up/post-down script?09:01

crimsunwell, seeing how I made the crufty if-p{re-up,ost-down}.d script, cut away09:02
crimsun(at the time I wanted to make the least invasive change to get it working)09:03
mjg59Keybuk: Ok, here's a fun one for you09:04
mjg59Keybuk: prism54 softmac and fullmac cards are identical except for the amount of RAM in them09:04
mjg59Keybuk: The softmac driver will drive both, but the fullmac driver is more functional09:04
Keybuksiretart: do you not think that just supporting one true mode is better?09:05
Keybukeven from a "I have to maintain this" point of view, it'd make your bug-triaging life much easier09:05
siretartKeybuk: mom, I'm on phon. just a sek09:05
mjg59Keybuk: The fullmac driver should refuse to load on softmac cards (since there's not enough ram for the firmware)09:05
Keybukmjg59: heh, why is the driver different?09:05
mjg59Keybuk: softmac cards do host-ieee8021109:05
mjg59fullmac ones do it on the card09:06
mjg59Oh, no, hang on - the fullmac driver only loads firmware on ifup09:06

mjg59Oh horrid horrid driver09:12
Keybuksiretart: what does the always-running daemon give them?09:12
siretartKeybuk: I do agree that wpasupplicant should not be started via the init script by default09:12
Keybukthat the ifup/down mode doesn't?09:12
siretartKeybuk: roaming support. you don't need to care about where you are.09:12
Keybukhow does it give them that?09:12
siretartKeybuk: you just specify all your networks, and it just associates. thats neat09:12
Keybukeven when the interfaces are down? :p09:13
siretartKeybuk: when the interfaces are down, it waits for them to come up09:13
Keybukright09:13
Fawzibhello, I'm trying to make a deb for a python application, but all the samples are for compiled apps not interpreted ones. Is there a skeleton debian/rules for python programs or a site with samples?09:13
Keybukso if you put all the networks in a configuration file, and referenced that in /etc/network/interfaces using wpa-conf ... doesn't that give you the same behaviour?09:13
siretartKeybuk: the first mode in that README.modes does not give you roaming. thats only in the second mode09:14
Keybukright09:14
Keybukso what does the third mode give you that the first two don't09:14
Keybuk?09:14
siretartKeybuk: the first one is intended for making it easier for gnome-system-admin to provide an interface to wpa09:14
Keybukone question about the experimental package, btw09:14
Keybukwhy does the svn include doc/ examples/ wpa_gui/ and wpa_gui-qt4 directories?09:14
Keybukshould those be in the diff.gz verbatim?09:14
siretartthey come from the orig tarball09:15
mjg59Keybuk: Ok, I think I can manage this (so that the fullmac driver will fail on probe for softmac cards)09:15
mjg59Keybuk: So, can you then ensure that the fullmac driver is always loaded before the softmac one?09:15
mjg59(Will fail in the case of multiple cards, but, well)09:15
Keybuksiretart: hmm?  so I don't need to check those out?09:15
Keybukmjg59: no, I have no way of forcing driver order at this time09:15
mjg59Keybuk: Well, we're going to need that09:15
mjg59(For the ahci case as well)09:15
Keybukmjg59: like I said; I'd rather we fixed the modules <g>09:16
siretartKeybuk: you just check the svn out and build it with svn-buildpackage09:16
Keybukassume I don't have that09:16
mjg59Keybuk: In this case, loading the softmac driver on a fullmac card is a perfectly reasonable thing to do09:16
mjg59It's just not what we /want/ to happen by default09:16
KeybukI'm trying to understand the shape of the svn09:16
Keybukthe blah/blah/debian/ I'm used to, I just export the debian09:17
Keybukbut why are there the other trees next to it?09:17
siretarterr, but this was a by hand upgrade, perhaps there has been some mistake while upgrade09:17
siretartI focused on the 0.4.8-1 upload. the experimental was kel's work from yesterday. need to catch up there09:17
Keybukok09:18
Keybukcause I rather like the shape of that experimental one09:18
Keybukand am gonna try for a UVF for it :)09:18
siretartwell, we are not sure how many systems that is gonna break09:18

Keybukno supported Ubuntu systems, wpa isn't in main yet <g>09:18
siretartglad that you like that work :)09:18

infinityThe installer stuff will come nearly for free (but not quite)09:25
Evaso2pitti: are u maintaining the user space tool?09:26
mjg59Keybuk: So we can either cripple the softmac driver so it can't load on fullmac hardware (which would be less than ideal, because it does have a couple of features the fullmac one doesn't), or we can ensure a specific load order09:26
Keybukmodprobe patch would need09:26
Keybuk1) config entries09:26

ograpitti, edubuntu is currently 9M oversized ... and i only ship english09:55
Kamionpitti: oh, ok09:55
pittiKamion: some 100 kB or so09:55
mjg59But it won't be used by default except on cards that are only supported by it09:55

mgalvinMithrandir: as in 20060329?09:55
janimoI'll recalculate09:55
Mithrandirmgalvin: yes09:55
Pygimjg59: huh :-/ so we are including -ng in main as well?09:55
Kamioncould be 2MB on Ubuntu CDs then09:55
ograoh, ok, if its in the kb area ...09:55
mjg59Pygi: No, restricted09:55
janimotoo bad abiword and other apps are translated part of gnome-langpack so cannot get those separately09:55

pittiKamion: I'd be fine with either way, it's not difficult to build an extra set09:57
Pygi_ion: come to #kubuntu-devel, we have to discuss some more things09:57
Kamionjanimo: I'm not overly keen on another seven million packages, but if it's what it takes - we'll see09:57
Mithrandirmgalvin: thanks again.09:57
lifelessmjg59: so grep -v serial is ok ?09:58
mjg59lifeless: Best to eyeball it09:58
mgalvinMithrandir: np, I will let you know when its all set :)09:58
pittiKamion: me neither, and most of the translations are around 50 kB or so (just the most popular ones were 200 kB), so my gut feeling is that it's not really worth the package overhead09:59

tsengI am pretty confident that isnt going to happen with GNOME11:03

tsengi am telling you, you can only strip so much11:03
joelbryanso gnome can't compile without those apps?11:04
tsengthe livecd is around 600mb compressed11:04
tsengif you remove firefox and open office11:05
tsengyou arent getting anywhere close to 50mb11:05
tsengand one could question what you want with a desktop without a browser or a word processor11:05
joelbryanthey can make it 50MB, if they use the installer cd for on-the-fly "apt-get install clicked-apps"11:06
tsengwho is they11:06
joelbryanthe installer cd would be the main repos11:06
tsengyou cant get a base system with gnome on top in 50mb11:06

joelbryanI think it's possible to make the live cd smaller than 600MB, using the installer cd as the main repos11:09
tsengthats installed and uncompressed11:10
tsengbut you have to have some manner of kernel and initrd outside the compressed loopback11:10
tseng"using the installer cd as the main repos" you will have to rephrase11:10
tsengi have one cd rom drive, I do not understand your idea11:10
