LaserJockhmm, better than our faculty05:10
tritiumHi bddebian :)05:10
whiprushit's unfortunate, I05:10
Yagisanbddebian: remember yesterday I joked about copping it if I broke my system in the dapper upgrade ?05:10
whiprushMO05:10
bddebianUh oh05:10
truz24How can i determine which version of dapper ( flight ) i have currently installed?05:10
Yagisanbddebian: I broke the system all right05:10
bddebian:-(05:11
Yagisanbddebian: *no* kernels boot. old or new05:11
Yagisanbddebian: and none of my boot cd's can find my lvm on raid partitions05:11
whiprushcrimsun: out of curiosity, is OSS part of your coursework?05:11
Yagisanw00t :(05:11
crimsunwhiprush: yes05:12
bddebianYagisan: :-(05:12
nictukutruz24, packages are pushed every day to the repositories, so05:12
whiprushcrimsun: man, that's totally awesome.05:12
truz24So flightX isn't really a vesion, but more of a snapshot?05:13
Yagisanbddebian: error is "PANIC Circular dependency. Exiting." on new kernel05:13
nictukuflights are snapshots05:13
truz24k05:13
nictukutruz24, from what I know, yes05:13
Yagisanbddebian: or endless segmentation faults on older05:13
truz24was just curious if there was a file that said "this is flight5" anywhere05:13
=== Yagisan hopes the amd64 flight6 live cd will be able to fix the system

whiprushcrimsun: Will do so...05:20
whiprushcrimsun: this made my day, I've been doom and gloom about OSS in schools for months.05:21
LaserJockwhiprush: well, I'm certainly trying to change that in the scientific community ;-)05:22
crimsunreally? most of the public NC universities are pretty stalwart OSS users05:22
crimsunparticularly NCSU, since Red Hat is located right on their campus05:22
whiprushcrimsun: we're about 50 feet from Daimler-Chrysler. We teach Java and CAD. That's about it.05:23
whiprushLaserJock: where are you at?05:23
bddebianOh man, look at all those EASY .desktop files I can knock out.. :-)05:23

bddebianOf course my Gnome is fuXX0red05:23
LaserJockwhiprush: Department of Chemistry :-)05:24
Yagisanbddebian: yours too ? gconf2 nver configured itself05:24
whiprushcool.05:24
Yagisanbddebian: before the kernel decided it didn't want to restart05:24
LaserJockit would be fun to have an Ubuntu Academia BOF some time05:25
=== Yagisan impatiently waits for flight6 to download
whiprushyeah really LaserJock05:25
LaserJockall the profs in my department use macs or windows05:30
LaserJockand most of the data collection is Windows05:30
truz24So if each flight is a "snapshot", then why do I have to type apt-get dist-upgrade to get some of the newer packages?05:30
truz24what is the difference between apt-get dist-upgrade and apt-get upgrade?05:30
nictukuis OSS spread in government agencies in the US? any of you work for the government?05:31
nictukutruz24, dist-upgrade is a bit more radical resolving dependencies05:31
truz24ok, i noticed it was upgraded my kernel and stuff05:32
nictukusee apt-get(8)05:32
truz24So going from the final flight up to 6.10 will be fine with apt-get dist-upgrade and apt-get upgrade?05:33
truz24or is a fresh install the best solution?05:33
LaserJockdist-upgrade05:33
nictukudist-upgrade05:34
truz24sweet05:34
LaserJockI have never used apt-get upgrade05:34
truz24I see05:34
truz24so no need for the two separate commands05:34
nictukuwell you still need update05:35
nictukubesides, consider using aptitude instead of apt-get05:35
nictukubut if you want to use aptitude, ALWAYS use aptitude05:36
nictukuand review pending actions, since it removes unused packages05:36
nictukusome aptitude beginners have a lot of trouble with that05:36
Yagisandist-upgrade will delete .debs to make the upgrade work IIRC05:36
truz24so you don't keep using more and more disk space for packages?05:37
whiprushthe occasional apt-get clean does the trick05:38
LaserJockI think he means it will remove packages to satisfy dependencies05:38
LaserJockor maybe not05:38
Yagisanyes05:38
Yagisansorry - half here. try to fix my dead box05:38
LaserJockI've never gotten the hang of aptitude. I always get it in an unfixable (at least for me) state fairly quickly05:39
truz24So if you install flight5 and apt-get dist-upgrade to flight6, and then apt-get clean, you should use the same space on your hard disk as if you installed flight6 fresh?05:39
=== hub [n=hub@toronto-hs-216-138-231-194.s-ip.magma.ca] has joined #ubuntu-motu
LaserJockmore or less05:40
nictukutruz24, probably not because packages could grow - or it can install new packages05:40
truz24So a package grows... wouldn't apt-get dist-upgrade delete the old one?05:41
nictukuit can grow, it does not pile up one over the other05:42
whiprushat worst, you'll maybe have an old config someplace.05:42
truz24thats not *too* bad :-)05:42
whiprushgenerally speaking though, it just works.05:42
nictukutruz24, new icons could be added to gnome themes, for example05:42
truz24yeah, but again, that would require the same space as if you installed flight6 fresh right?05:42
whiprushIf you install flight5 right now, and apt-get update and upgrade, you'll get flight605:43
whiprushor whatever is current.05:43
truz24Agreed.05:43
whiprushI've had the same install on my laptop since hoary.05:44
whiprushthere's probably a bit of cruft, but generally speaking05:44
whiprushit works.05:44
truz24The topic we are discussing is if you install flight5, apt-get update & upgrade, does that == fresh install of flight605:44
truz24and it seems that there might be some odd files left behind05:44
truz24but nothing big05:44
whiprushright05:45
truz24I assume those files left behind are dynamically generated by some packages, and are not cataloged by the repositories05:45
Kyralokay...dist-upgrade path definately broken05:46
LaserJockKyral: do you get EasyChem bug reports?05:49
KyralLaserJock: no..have there been?05:50
truz24whiprush, so when you upgraded from hoary to breezy, did you just go into sources.lst and change all instances of hoary to breezy?05:50
whiprushyep.05:51
LaserJockKyral: yeah, there was a .desktop bug05:51
whiprushtruz24: knowing apt and dpkg well help, sometimes there's a bug.05:51
KyralLaserJock: tell me about it05:52
Kyrali prolly got the email but skipped over it05:52
LaserJockKyral: you .desktop file sucks <g>05:52
truz24well, its a server install, hopefully it will be simple :-) if not i'll learn05:52
whiprushif you're tracking a devel release, then knowing how dpkg works well helps a ton.05:52
truz24yeah, i'm not gonna take it to the devel versions05:52
truz24just from hoary to breezy05:52
LaserJockKyral: it is bug #3637105:53
UbugtuMalone bug 36371 in easychem ".desktop file is incomplete" [Minor,Confirmed]  http://launchpad.net/bugs/3637105:53
LaserJocktruz24: I'm doing a dist-upgrade right now (last time was probably ~ Flight4) 381 packages upgrade05:56
truz24have you guys ever downgraded with dist-upgrade?05:57
LaserJockI did once or twice. It seemed much harder but it sorta works05:58
LaserJockseemed like a fresh install worked better05:58
Yagisanno, but I've manually downgraded with aptitude06:00
Yagisandowngrades don't seem to be really supported06:00
Yagisanbut they usually work06:00
truz24Are there any implementations of Wakeup on Lan in ubuntu?06:01
truz24I'm wanting to hibernate a couple of servers when they aren't being used, and have them startup when a lan request is made...06:02
Yagisantruz24: WoL is a bios/netcard rom feature IIRC06:02
truz24right, but doesn't the OS have to support it as well?06:02
Yagisantruz24: better to just turn powersaving on so the spin down the drives and throttle the cpu06:03
truz24powersaving can be turned on in the server distro?06:03
truz24or do you mean at the bios level06:03
Yagisantruz24: I turn it on. actually IIRC it was there by default when I put breezy on06:05
Yagisanwish me luck people. my flight6 iso has downloaded, now to try and fix my box06:12
bddebianGood luck Yagisan06:12
LaserJockgo Yagisan go!06:12
truz24interesting.  I just upgraded the server from hoary to breezy, and did apt-get clean, and its using 20 megs less disk space :-)06:20

kelmo_lapnow that i have had enough time to go over the just released code, i have found some minor shortcomings09:30
kelmo_lapyes, it does indeed09:30
siretartyes? what are they?09:30
kelmo_lapwell, the most critical:09:31
kelmo_lap  * Remove check for wpa_cli pidfile when executing an action script. This09:31
kelmo_lap    check was racy, and not always successful. Sometimes, the device was09:31
kelmo_lap    marked as up without allowing the action script a chance to finish.09:31
kelmo_lapthis will directly impact the report that was just closed09:31
siretartoh09:31
kelmo_lapbug #28722309:32
kelmo_lapthe guy who wanted a drop in replacement for waproamd09:32
kelmo_lapi am guessing he'll start exploring the action script setup soon09:32
kelmo_laphe might find a small hole in it ; )09:33
kelmo_lapfixed in svn09:33
kelmo_lapsecond point i'd like to discuss quickly:09:33
kelmo_lapmaybe we should arrange a new debian/experimental upload, after importing all the stuff from current trunk?09:33
siretartyes, I agree09:34
kelmo_lapalot has changed in the last two or so days09:34
kelmo_lapthe i will leave you be for a little while ; )09:34

bradbWhy is it that I have a five hour old email on dapper-changes about yaboot, but I still can't see the new version when I update/dist-upgrade? I got the impression from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BuildDaemons that the delay should be about an hour, at most.04:01

Yagisansiretart: I know. It also has a 1 byte overhead on instructions so cache is slightly less effective in 64bit mode,05:35
Yagisansiretart: if he's after something cpu bound it will help, otherwise no, he should go with i38605:36
siretartYagisan: 64bit instructions and pointers are twice as big as their 32bit equivalents, so his caches will fill up faster05:37
siretartYagisan: so even on cpu bound application, there might be a performance loss.05:37

LaserJockI'd think if there is a problem with the package on REVU you could review it,etc. If it isn't on REVU but a debdiff is attached in Malone, I'd use that I guess07:25
bddebianLaserJock: There is a diff on REVU but it's wrong.  But it's an easy fix so.. ?07:25
LaserJockI'd say it is up to you then ;-)07:27
LaserJockI'd probably just fix it and upload but also provide a comment on REVU07:27

inflatewell, the question is for all, not for you only :)08:17
inflateI know about this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallCDCustomizationHowTo08:18
inflatebut it's not working08:18
LaserJockinflate: that question has come up a few times here and I honestly don't know that anybody here will be much help.08:20
LaserJockinflate: You might have better luck on a mailing list perhaps08:20
inflateok, but another question08:20
inflatehow can I build the installer?08:21
inflateI've downloaded it and compiled08:21
inflatebut I don't know how to merge it with packages08:21
LaserJockare you talking about debian-installer?08:22
inflateyes08:22
LaserJockso you downloaded the source package?08:23
inflateyes, also compiled them, and I've a small repository which contain packages I need,08:24
inflatebut I don't know how to merge installer with repository08:25
LaserJockhmm, well I have no idea. I've never messed around with d-i before08:26
LaserJockI'm not sure what you are trying to do08:27
inflatewhat I wnat exactly is to create a modified version of kubuntu, the default package selection on ubuntu doesn't fill my needs08:28
inflateI need more packages08:28
inflateand I want to remove the 100MB of lang-packs08:28
inflateI tried to use the article mentioned here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallCDCustomizationHowTo08:29
inflatebut it's not working08:29
LaserJockok, how often do you want to do that?08:29
inflatewell, this is what I'm asking about, the article's way isn't working, so I need another way08:31
LaserJockI'd just modify the kubuntu-desktop meta package08:31
LaserJockor provide a kubuntu-inflate-desktop meta package ;-)08:32
inflate:)08:32
inflatereally i tried08:32
inflateinstaller worked normally, and install the base system08:32
inflateand the kernel + usplash too08:33
inflatebut it skip kubuntu-desktop package08:33
LaserJockperhaps because it's dependecies were not met08:33

LaserJockhmm, did you restart?11:59
truz24several times12:00
truz24the thing that is odd, is that 5.10 install disc works fine12:00
truz24i guess i could install 5.10 and then upgrade to dapper12:00
truz24also, the dapper install cd works fine on my laptop12:00
truz24so its some hardware conflict i assume12:00
