| Kamion | Surak: no, don't | 01:02 |
| Kamion | please leave closing espresso bugs to espresso developers :) | 01:02 |
| Surak | there are two or three regressions from 0.99.36 to 0.99.43. | 01:02 |
| Surak | Kamion: ok. Even fixed bugs? Sorry. I closed one of them. Just as triage, to make your time better used on coding. | 01:03 |
| Kamion | please don't close bugs on the basis that it now works for you if you aren't the original submitter | 01:03 |

| Surak | Kamion: forget it. I zeroed the hard drive to test some GRUB bugs. | 01:05 |
| Kamion | Surak: you almost certainly no longer have a partition table that partman can resize and insert more partitions into; this often happens because you have too many primary partitioner | 01:05 |

| Kamion | I wish people would open new bugs for that | 01:08 |
| Kamion | grub can fail for all sorts of reasons | 01:08 |
| Surak | it works here. I'm doing some testing to make it break so I can help you, but it insists in working! | 01:08 |
| Kamion | with Flight CD 6, it will only break if there's a candidate version of grub in the archive newer than what you have installed | 01:09 |
| Kamion | I believe the bug to be fixed in more recent versions of espresso, and so I've just closed the bug | 01:09 |
| Kamion | (thought I'd already done so, thanks for the reminder) | 01:10 |
| Surak | Oh, you just closed it. It was still as open here, as I probably opened the window about 2h ago :-) | 01:11 |

| KaiL_ | jup, same here | 01:14 |
| Kamion | Surak: actually, no, ignore that, see my comment in the bug | 01:14 |
| Burgwork | HiddenWolf, the sorting it is doing is by alphabetical, rather than numbeical | 01:14 |
| Kamion | Surak: the bug should remain open | 01:14 |
| KaiL_ | doesn't say, that you aren't crazy, but that bug really exists :p | 01:14 |
| lifeless | I've put my name up to get universe upload rights in the next tb meeting. Its at 5am here - how much of a requirement is to be at the meeting ? | 01:15 |
| HiddenWolf | Burgwork: makes the sorting for that column pretty useless | 01:15 |
| Surak | Kamion: because of the last comment? About being empty instead of different? | 01:15 |
| Kamion | Surak: yes | 01:15 |
| Kamion | Surak: thanks for triage though, it helps remind me of things sometimes | 01:16 |
| Burgwork | HiddenWolf, indeed | 01:17 |
| Surak | Kamion: as I am not as good as coder as you, but I can still help anyway. Specially in this case, as I know python a little and I did that awful shell script which does the same thing as espresso... | 01:18 |
| Kamion | generally speaking, I'd rather not have people looking around for bugs to close (as mentioned, that mostly just creates more work, because in my experience at best 50% of those closures are valid), but anyone who can dig into a bug a bit and clarify what's going on can make themselves very useful | 01:19 |
| Kamion | what my bug list needs is clarification more than anything else, particularly since many installer bug reports are pretty unclear | 01:20 |
| Surak | Kamion: the translation is being done through rosetta's debian-installer item, isn't it? I noticed that the "next" "previous" and "cancel" button are never translated, and there are not such items there. | 01:20 |
| jcole | KaiL_: the ubuntu drivers are just really outdated | 01:21 |
| Kamion | Surak: yes; next/previous/cancel are untranslated at the moment, that's a bug, although hopefully fairly easy to fix | 01:21 |
| jcole | KaiL_: go here to get the latest videoa driver for your card -> http://dri.freedesktop.org/snapshots/ | 01:21 |
| Kamion | "fix up various untranslatable strings" is on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuExpress/ToDo | 01:22 |

| KaiL_ | really interesting | 01:25 |
| jcole | KaiL_: it's the date the debian/ubuntu kernel maintainter(s) downloaded the driver which was a few years ago... i suspect that all drm/dri drivers in ubuntu are outdated | 01:25 |
| KaiL_ | maybe only the version number didn't get changed? | 01:26 |
| jcole | KaiL_: suse and fedora are up to date | 01:26 |
| jcole | KaiL_: no, i'm missing extensions that should be on my card | 01:26 |
| KaiL_ | I can't belive, that all these drivers are 2 years old... | 01:26 |
| jcole | KaiL_: i suspect this update will make my 3d card work the same on these other distros | 01:27 |
| jcole | KaiL_: probably because they are not part of the main kernel source tree? | 01:28 |

| csmall | I have a question that possibly only developers can answer. Regarding performance, comparing RPM based distributions to debian based distributions. Why do RPM based dist seem to run smoother, faster, softer (I know this sounds funny) while debian based dists seem to ...I dunno...hit the disk harder I guess...not the soft smooth feeling of RPM based dists | 01:52 |
| csmall | I just could never figure it out | 01:52 |
| Amaranth | uh | 01:53 |
| Amaranth | how can writing new files to the disk not "hit the disk"? | 01:53 |
| Kamion | RPM vs. .deb is just a delivery mechanism for files, so that cannot have anything to do with how the system runs | 01:53 |
| csmall | thats all fine and I understand what you mean | 01:53 |
| csmall | I am just trying to explain it in the best way I can | 01:54 |
| Kamion | the difference must be elsewhere | 01:54 |
| csmall | yes | 01:54 |
| csmall | but there is a noticable difference | 01:54 |
| Kyral | in a way, RPM and DEB are just frontends to Tar.gz :D | 01:54 |
| csmall | yeah they are just compressed files | 01:54 |
| === Amaranth smacks Kyral | ||
| Kyral | OW!!! | 01:54 |
| Kyral | what? | 01:54 |
| Kamion | presumably the kernel shipped by e.g. Red Hat happens to be better for your hardware | 01:54 |
| Amaranth | you oversimplify things :) | 01:54 |
| Surak | csmall: try a "apt-get dist-upgrade" in fedora and ubuntu. Then tell me how many minutes more you have to wait in fedora for it just show you the list. | 01:54 |
| Kyral | I said "in a way" | 01:54 |
| Kyral | jeez :P | 01:54 |
| csmall | I am not really comparing the package managment | 01:55 |
| csmall | Surak: agreed | 01:55 |
| csmall | but I mean an overall feel | 01:55 |
| Amaranth | csmall: perhaps you have dma enabled on the other distro and not on ubuntu? | 01:55 |
| Surak | csmall: which means rpm can be, in fact, much slower on this particular case. | 01:55 |
| csmall | Amaranth: thats what I was wondering I just installed dapper Iwill chekc if its on | 01:55 |
| csmall | Surak: I mean an overall feel for the entire desktop experience | 01:55 |
| csmall | Amaranth: I will check. I have been using debian religiously for years and I have always wondered why there is this difference in the feel | 01:56 |
| lifeless | csmall: I dont think there is any relationship betwen the packaging and the feel | 01:56 |
| HiddenWolf | ubuntu and debian are the only ones building for 386? | 01:56 |
| csmall | Just thought maybe you guys could offer some insight | 01:56 |
| Amaranth | HiddenWolf: probably | 01:56 |
| csmall | lifeless: I agree, I only mentioned RPM to descibe the distributions I am refering to | 01:57 |
| HiddenWolf | Amaranth: would that _really_ be noticable? | 01:57 |
| lifeless | csmall: its misleading though, right. | 01:57 |
| Amaranth | HiddenWolf: doubtful | 01:57 |
| === Amaranth gets lost | ||
| Amaranth | HiddenWolf: iirc it's march=386 but mtune=p4 so i think it's just a matter of not using a couple of newer instructions | 01:58 |
| jdub | 486 | 01:58 |
| === jcole [n=jcole@palrel2.hp.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Amaranth | jdub: oh, it's 486 now? | 01:58 |
| Amaranth | can't really go any higher because of the via c3 | 01:59 |
| jdub | it always was iirc | 01:59 |
| KaiL_ | VIA should really repair their CPU crap.. | 01:59 |
| Amaranth | i'm out of my league here | 01:59 |
| HiddenWolf | *chuckle* Well, whatever you do, current performance will always become the baseline. My dapper feels normal or slow, untill I boot up breezy. :) | 02:00 |
| Amaranth | KaiL_: They don't do anything wrong, they just don't implement one instruction (cmov?) that others do | 02:00 |
| Amaranth | HiddenWolf: hehe, yeah | 02:00 |
| HiddenWolf | Just now, eog took more than a blink to show me a photo, and I was 'damn, slow' | 02:00 |
| KaiL_ | Amaranth, bad enough - afaik except this single instruction, it's an i686, so it's only an i486 with many many additional instructions, which are mostly not used | 02:00 |
| HiddenWolf | Must just have been a microsecond or 2. :) | 02:01 |
| csmall | dma is on, so thats not it. maybeit will always be a mystery heh | 02:01 |
| Amaranth | csmall: it's harder on the system but from what i've heard it's also faster, maybe that has something to do with it | 02:01 |
| Amaranth | although that might be apt vs yum | 02:02 |

| Kamion | oh, damnit, silbs is on holiday IIRC | 12:15 |
| mvo | jamesh: I need it for startup-notification support in gksu, I managed to get my events by sending a syntetic GDK_POPERTY_CHANGE event to a fake-window | 12:15 |
| Kamion | any ubuntu-art moderators here? silbs is the only one listed | 12:15 |
| jamesh | mvo: for startup notification, the time should be for the event corresponding to the user action that requested the window | 12:17 |
| mvo | jamesh: hm, gksu is called by the menu, so I would have to extract and use this time to have the exact time information? (gksu itself starts some other app then) | 12:18 |
| jamesh | mvo: if the .desktop file says that the app supports startup notification, I think the time gets passed in the environment (iirc) | 12:18 |
| mvo | jamesh: I think the problem is that gksu itself is a gtk application so the startup notification stuff (from the panel) things all is done when the password dialog is up | 12:20 |
| jamesh | mvo: ah. | 12:21 |
| jamesh | mvo: I guess gksu should be starting the privileged process with startup notification then | 12:21 |
| jamesh | mvo: probably using the time the user pressed enter in the password dialog as the time | 12:22 |
| mvo | jamesh: yes, that is what I'm currently working on | 12:23 |
| jamesh | mvo: so a signal handler on the entry's "activate" signal and OK button's "clicked" signals would be appropriate | 12:24 |
| jamesh | use gtk_get_current_event_time() there (they are called while the event is being processed) | 12:25 |
| Riddell | mvo__: hmm, Ok is "make changes and quit" which Cancal is "quit without any changes being having been saved" | 12:25 |
| Riddell | mvo: I think they should be changed to "Install" and "Close" | 12:25 |

| jamesh | mvo: it worked? | 12:31 |
| mvo | jamesh: my approach with the fake-window works (tested it now). the trouble with using the event time from the dialog is that sometimes no dialog is needed (when the sudo password is cached). this just occured to me, so I may have to use (the rather ugly) fake-window approach | 12:34 |

| Kamion | sabdfl: on last night's fc-cache thing, yeah, as elmo/infinity said it's easy to take care of by a diversion - been meaning to do that for a while. I'm just waiting for a current install CD to rsync down so that I can test it now. | 12:46 |
| Riddell | sabdfl: hi | 12:46 |
| sabdfl | Riddell: mvo just answered my question in pvt msg, i was wondering if Kubuntu always uses the same fontconfigs as Ubuntu | 12:47 |
| sabdfl | i have questions from Intel China re Kubuntu fontconfigs for China | 12:47 |
| Riddell | sabdfl: yes it does | 12:47 |
| mvo | sabdfl: http://people.ubuntu.com/~mvo/bzr/language-selector/language-selector--mvo/fontconfig/zh_CN is the fontconfig for mainland china | 12:48 |
| jamesh | mvo: if no dialog is needed, then the right time to use would be the start time for the application itself | 12:49 |
| jamesh | mvo: I wonder if you can get at that easily? | 12:50 |
| infinity | Kamion: divert update-initramfs while you're at it. | 12:50 |
| jamesh | (application == gksu here) | 12:50 |
| Riddell | mvo: slightly confusing how Language Selector is called Language Support in the menu | 12:50 |
| Kamion | infinity: ok, I'll have a look, thanks | 12:51 |
| Kamion | will do some stopwatch timing | 12:51 |
| mvo | jamesh: the start-time of the app started via sudo? I'm not sure that this is possible at all because we need a server timestamp for the startup notification stuff | 12:51 |
| mvo | Riddell: ups, I'm fixing this now | 12:52 |
| mvo | Riddell: hm, hold on | 12:52 |
| infinity | Kamion: We should compare lists sometime, so whatever speedups you do to d-i, I get in livefs, and vice versa. | 12:52 |
| mvo | Riddell: IIRC there was some discussion about this at some point and that was why it was renamed ... | 12:52 |
| infinity | Kamion: In the next week, pre-beta, might be nice for the installer case. :) | 12:52 |
| jamesh | mvo: looks like gdk_x11_display_get_user_time() will give you gksu's startup time if it hasn't popped a dialog | 12:53 |
| Kamion | infinity: at the moment I only divert scrollkeeper-{update,rebuilddb} and run scrollkeeper-update | 12:53 |
| jamesh | mvo: and if it has interacted with the user, it'll return the time of the last user interaction, which is what you want | 12:53 |
| jamesh | sounds perfect :) | 12:53 |
| infinity | Kamion: Ahh, kay. Well, fc-cache is a killer, update-initramfs can easily be another few minutes on slow hardware (another 20 or 30 seconds on fast machines)... | 12:53 |
| infinity | Kamion: And I assume you already divert invoke-rc.d to avoid that hassle? | 12:54 |
| Kamion | infinity: debootstrap installs a fake start-stop-daemon, but pkgsel doesn't at present | 12:55 |
| Kamion | hasn't seemed to be a problem so far | 12:55 |
| Treenaks | infinity: my /boot doesn't understand DMA, so I know what you mean :) | 12:55 |
| === zakame [n=zak@ubuntu/member/zakame] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| jamesh | mvo: the only case where gdk_x11_display_get_user_time() will return 0 is if you haven't interacted with the user, and you weren't started with startup notification or the startup notification ID didn't include the timestamp | 12:56 |
| infinity | Kamion: It's not a problem, per se (especially since you reboot right afterward anyway, to make sure the system is in a sane state), but if you're going to be rebooting anyway, it's pointless to start daemons in the postinsts and waste time there. | 12:56 |
| jamesh | that last case shouldn't ever happen with recent libstartup-notification | 12:57 |

| Lathiat | hrm, quagga | 03:44 |
| Lathiat | has a question on prerm of medium priority which is "do you really want to stop quagga" | 03:44 |
| Lathiat | which on ubuntu gets skipped, and causes prerm to fail | 03:44 |
| Lathiat | would it be reasonable to bump that to high? | 03:44 |
| Lathiat | breaks upgrading, for example | 03:45 |
| Lathiat | (as it just did for me) | 03:45 |
| infinity | If the prerm fails when the question is answered incorrectly, why does the question exist at all? | 03:45 |
| Lathiat | infinity: the question is | 03:45 |
| Lathiat | infinity: "do you relaly want to stop quagga" | 03:45 |
| Lathiat | which is medium, and edefauls to false | 03:45 |
| Lathiat | and is ignored so it just abortsd | 03:45 |
| Lathiat | i assume in debian the default priority shows medium questions | 03:45 |
| infinity | Yes, my point is that if there's only one correct answer, the question shouldn't be asked. | 03:45 |
| Lathiat | i think the question is | 03:46 |
| Lathiat | "i'm about to upgrade quagga" | 03:46 |
| Lathiat | "if i stop it, you might lose connetivity" | 03:46 |
| Lathiat | "you sure?" | 03:46 |
| infinity | pcmcia-cs had a similar question, with equal irritation. | 03:46 |
| infinity | See what that does now and follow suit. | 03:47 |
| Lathiat | i mean, its a valid question, bu shoudlnt it be priority high? | 03:47 |
| Lathiat | hrm | 03:47 |
| infinity | My gut feeling would be to change the default answer. | 03:47 |
| Lathiat | i'd be inclined otherwise | 03:47 |
| Lathiat | to make it high? | 03:47 |
| infinity | Most users just want to upgrade (and at that point have already downloaded packages) | 03:47 |
| Lathiat | not tha ti have alot of experience in that area or on what others do | 03:47 |
| ajmitch | most users wouldn't want to run quagga without really knowing what it does :) | 03:48 |
| Lathiat | sure, but it might not be obvious why your dist-upgrade barfs halfway through | 03:48 |

| bddebian | How can I symlink dirs? dh_link seems to fail on directories? | 06:27 |
| Kinnison | according to the manpage it shouldn't | 06:33 |
| Kinnison | the second example indicates a symlink of directories | 06:33 |
| bddebian | I know but it does | 06:33 |
| bddebian | fail that is | 06:34 |
| seb128 | maybe you don't use it correctly? | 06:34 |
| bddebian | Gah, will guys quit fixing things, my dist-upgrades take forever.. :-) | 06:34 |
| Kamion | bddebian: it won't work right if the target directory already exists | 06:34 |
| bddebian | seb128: Probably not, that's why I'm asking | 06:34 |
| bddebian | Kamion: Ahhh | 06:35 |
| Kamion | i.e. it won't remove the target directory for you if something else already created it | 06:35 |
| Kamion | such as make install or dh_install | 06:35 |
| bddebian | Shite. | 06:35 |
| Kamion | why so bad? it's usually easy to fix up paths in whatever's doing the installation | 06:35 |
| bddebian | Hmm, can I wildcard it? dh_link /foo/bar/* /bar/foo/* ? | 06:35 |
| Kamion | no | 06:35 |
| Kamion | just fix whatever's installing to the directory that you want to be a symlink | 06:36 |
| Kamion | it should probably install to the target of the symlink instead | 06:36 |
| seb128 | speaking about link, I'm not sure but is there a bug | 06:36 |
| bddebian | Kamion: Well qgis's help path is hardcoded in the app for /usr/share/qgis/doc and Debian is installing in /usr/share/doc/qgis/ | 06:36 |
| seb128 | if package n-1 has dir_name and package n makes it a symlink on other_dir_name | 06:36 |
| seb128 | does that work? | 06:37 |
| azeem | bddebian: then that hardcoded path should be patched, IMHO | 06:37 |
| Kamion | bddebian: change qgis' Makefile to install somewhere else, then | 06:37 |
| bddebian | azeem: Agreed | 06:37 |

| sladen | regarding #22045, I've also noticed that the openGL hacks aren't getting a z-buffer, so it's possible they're not getting double-buffered either | 06:44 |
| ogra | mdz, i was hoping for the announced patch in that bug | 06:44 |
| bddebian | whee | 06:45 |
| ogra | else i could indeed need help with that one, i still have no machine where i could reproduce it | 06:45 |
| mdz | ogra: announced patch? | 06:45 |
| === pitti [n=pitti@ubuntu/member/pitti] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| ogra | mdz, see the comment from Bart Hartgers in that bug | 06:46 |
| mdz | ogra: many of us here in the channel can reproduce it | 06:46 |
| ogra | "I might be able to help. I've a radeon 9200 in my desktop that has the same problem, and I am halfway done with a patch agains 2.14 to fix this on my system." | 06:46 |
| mdz | that was a week ago | 06:47 |
| mdz | ogra: I'm sure you can get an account on a machine you can use to reproduce the bug | 06:47 |
| mdz | I can give you an account on mine, but it would probably be better with someone in a closer time zone so they could answer questions about the display if needed | 06:48 |
| mdz | perhaps email Bart and ask if he can give you his incomplete work for you to use as a starting point | 06:49 |
| mdz | anything but wait | 06:49 |
| ogra | yep | 06:49 |
| ogra | that was my plan, i wanted to give him some time since he volunteers | 06:49 |
| === rajasun [n=maximusp@bb220-255-207-70.singnet.com.sg] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| mdz | there's no shame in asking for his code; you're offering to help him finish it | 06:55 |
| ogra | yep | 06:56 |
| mdz | ogra: also, was the xscreensaver patch for thin clients carried over to gnome-screensaver? | 06:57 |
| mdz | or does it provide some other mechanism? | 06:57 |
| ogra | its using gconf keys i was thinking about to just unset the key for the hacks ... | 06:58 |
| ogra | (g-s-s calls that throttling) | 06:58 |
| mdz | how does it work? does ldm set them on the ssh command line? | 06:59 |
| ogra | but adding it to g-s-s is trivial (its a two line patch) | 06:59 |
| mdz | oh, so that's currently broken? is there a bug open? | 06:59 |
| ogra | i'd set them from ltsp's postinst ... so we have a system setting and if the user insists to use hacks, he's still able to | 06:59 |
| ogra | nope, i think you closed it ... it was the same bug i carried over ... | 07:00 |
| ogra | its still on my TODO, so dont worry, wont get lost | 07:00 |
| ogra | Mithrandir, did you set the RUNNING_UNDER_GDM env var from casper again (while we're at g-s-s) | 07:01 |
| mdz | ogra: if I close a bug because it was fixed, and it has been unfixed without my knowledge, it is appropriate to correct me :-) | 07:01 |
| ogra | mdz, ok, i'll reopen it (it were two bugs about the same issue in two packages and i have it on my list anyway) | 07:02 |
| mdz | ogra: I didn't close it; it's bug #18595 | 07:03 |
| Ubugtu | Malone bug 18595 in xscreensaver "Needs to disable graphics-intensive modes for LTSP" [Normal,Unconfirmed] http://launchpad.net/bugs/18595 | 07:03 |
| ogra | meh, right, but it indeed doesnt show up in the g-s-s buglist :) | 07:03 |

| Riddell | Kamion: i18n working well in kde-espresso | 07:11 |

| === Le_Vert [n=Le_Vert_@le-vert.net] has left #ubuntu-devel ["Leaving"] | ||
| Riddell | and probably ogra will want his to say edubuntu somehow | 07:11 |

| === ivoks [n=ivoks@ubuntu/member/ivoks] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| ogra | isnt that what espresso-ubuntu-artwork is for ? | 07:13 |
| Riddell | sladen: the string says "Ubuntu is now ready to install", that could be de-branded but it's not a bad string to have like that | 07:14 |
| Riddell | of course I could just run s/Ub/Kub/ in the frontend easily enough | 07:14 |
| === mvo [n=egon@p54A67D29.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Burgwork | Riddell, why not just say "Ready to install"? | 07:15 |
| Burgwork | as branding in espresso is bad and should be avoided | 07:15 |
| sladen | ogra: grep -rci opengl gnome-screensaver-* = 0 does it actually do any gdk_gl_ specific calls, or leave that to the hacks? | 07:17 |
| Riddell | Burgwork: that could well be the best way, although it does seem quite nice to know what you're installing | 07:17 |
| Burgwork | Riddell, you already do - Ubuntu | 07:18 |
| Riddell | Burgwork: I'm not installing ubuntu, that's the point :) | 07:18 |
| Burgwork | if an Ubuntu live cd installs Fedora, I would concerned | 07:19 |
| sladen | Riddell: the image in the background, the desktop, the front of the CD, and the CD sleave should give you a good hint | 07:19 |
| Riddell | I'm not against the idea, I just follow Kamion, poke him | 07:19 |
| sladen | anything that is shipped with 'Ubuntu' in the name is unattractive for other derivers | 07:20 |
| Burgwork | sladen, I am fairly certain this is a simple mistake, as Kamion is pretty busy and probably just missed it | 07:21 |
| ogra | sladen, it sadly leaves it to the hacks, which is wrong, since you cant force the hacks visual in --root mode | 07:21 |
| ogra | xss just selects the visuall according to what xscreensaver-gl-helper gives it | 07:22 |
| ogra | and sets it in the daemon | 07:22 |
| === highvoltage [n=Jono@196.207.41.251] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Kamion | Riddell: the "ready" label was awkward, I couldn't come up with a good phrasing that excluded Ubuntu | 07:28 |
| Kamion | suggestions welcome | 07:28 |
| Kamion | you can't do s/Ub/Kub/ as not all translations will include "Ub" | 07:28 |
| === herzi [n=herzi@d123041.adsl.hansenet.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Burgwork | "Finish Install" | 07:29 |
| Kamion | the sentence needs to be rephrased from the current "Ubuntu is ready to install on this computer." | 07:29 |
| Kamion | Burgwork: not a heading | 07:29 |
| Burgwork | ah | 07:29 |
| Kamion | the heading is "Ready to install" | 07:29 |
| Burgwork | "You are now ready to complete the installation" | 07:29 |
| Burgwork | ? | 07:29 |
| Kamion | sounds clunky, I'm afraid | 07:29 |
| sladen | or Complete Installation. | 07:29 |
| Kamion | to me anyway | 07:30 |
| Burgwork | yes | 07:30 |
| ogra | s/Ubuntu/The System/ ? | 07:30 |
| Kamion | sladen: that's a heading, not appropriate | 07:30 |
| Kamion | ogra: ugh | 07:30 |
| Kamion | the system is ready to install onto your computer machine thing noun. | 07:30 |

| pitti | ogra: ~ 7 packages still b-dep on it | 08:12 |
| _mvo_ | "foreword by Mark Shuttleworth" | 08:12 |
| ogra | meh | 08:12 |
| pitti | ogra: it's still on my wishlist to clean that up, but it's work | 08:12 |
| wasabi_ | mvo, grab latest GAptI. | 08:12 |
| wasabi_ | When you get a chance. ;) | 08:12 |
| ogra | i might need libgtkgl2.0-dev for g-s-s :/ | 08:12 |
| mdz | yay, awty unbroken now | 08:13 |
| Burgwork | _mvo_, I might be a little biased of course... | 08:13 |
| pitti | mdz: what does that tool do? | 08:13 |
| _mvo_ | Burgwork: sure ;) | 08:13 |
| mdz | pitti: reports the versions of packages in many places, from the archive to the CDs | 08:13 |
| _mvo_ | wasabi_: pulling | 08:13 |
| mdz | so we can see when a new version is propagated | 08:13 |
| pitti | ah | 08:14 |
| wasabi_ | mvo, it's pretty much all implemented and works. Some parts are a bit hacky, because I need to find proper ways to do it. | 08:14 |
| wasabi_ | I also need a little better tie between gapti and synaptic for installation. | 08:14 |
| _mvo_ | wasabi_: anything you need in synaptic for this? | 08:14 |
| pitti | mdz: it sounds like a tool that collects build failure states, anastacia inconsistencies, etc. and print a summary report :) | 08:14 |
| mdz | Kinnison: is the drescher archive exported via http anywhere? | 08:14 |
| wasabi_ | Yeah. I'd like a way to add a key to apt-key, with the proper confirmation dialog. | 08:14 |
| mdz | pitti: it can grow ;-) | 08:14 |
| wasabi_ | Right now I'm using some of your code in gnome-software-properties. | 08:14 |
| mvo | wasabi_: you send a mail/bug-report for this, right? | 08:15 |
| wasabi_ | the apt_key class in dialog_apt_key.py | 08:15 |
| wasabi_ | Yeah. | 08:15 |
| sivang | Burgwork: I'm honnored to know you :) | 08:15 |
| mvo | wasabi_: ok, I'll have a look. loads of stuff going on currently, sorry for the lag | 08:15 |
| wasabi_ | I was also considering writing my own package installation dialog for it, like update-manager. I would like to talk with you 1on1 about it though. | 08:15 |
| wasabi_ | Since it might actually fit into Synaptic. | 08:16 |
| wasabi_ | I don't just want to initiate an install for whatever packages are listed. Would rather have a screen so the user can see what is going to be installed, and not just as "raw" as synaptic. | 08:16 |
| mvo | wasabi_: update-manager is using synaptic as backend, the dist-upgrader is independent | 08:17 |
| mvo | wasabi_: if you want your own (based on apt.InstallProgress/FetchProgress) we should probably move it into python-apt or python-apt-gtk or something like this | 08:17 |
| === pitti yays at cups 1.2rc2 - the spooler, authentication, etc. finally works fine :) of course it doesn't print, but who needs that anyway... | ||
| wasabi_ | Something akin to how OS X and windows installers are. It shows a list of what will be installed, top leve items, like "Photoshop", and then under that has conditionals that you can choose like "Extra Brushes"... see wha tI mean? Those are recognized as Suggests and Recommends. | 08:17 |
| wasabi_ | But the interface needs to be a bit better at conveying the idea. | 08:17 |
| wasabi_ | And not inunduating the user with tons of things like package-common package-base, package-foo, libfoo, libbar, etc. | 08:18 |
| sivang | pitti: hehe | 08:18 |
| sivang | pitti: yes, paper is going to deprecated in not time anywyas | 08:18 |
| pitti | sivang: still, rc1 was a real mess, as were previous snapshots; so I'm hopeful again | 08:19 |
| mvo | wasabi_: right. if it's only about installing that shouldn't be a problem | 08:19 |
| wasabi_ | It's something which we could benefit from in synaptic primem but which makes a real lot of sense when real users start clicking on .apt files. | 08:20 |
| wasabi_ | I'm going to put together at least a little UI mockup for it. | 08:20 |
| === mvo looks up primem | ||
| mvo | wasabi_: cool, thanks! | 08:21 |
| wasabi_ | Anyways, gapti actually works. Adds the key, etc. | 08:21 |
| wasabi_ | Installs the packages. | 08:21 |
| wasabi_ | Not sure ow to tell the browser it's allowed to open the file yet, though. ;0 | 08:21 |
| Mithrandir | ogra: running_under_gdm has always been set. | 08:22 |
| ogra | uuh, really | 08:22 |
| ogra | thats odd, then something in g-s-s is wrong | 08:22 |
| wasabi_ | Obviously it's not set in stone yet. I think I'm going to change the .apt file format... and want some other input on that. | 08:22 |
| wasabi_ | Instead of having PublicKey, require the entire file to be cleartext signed by the key. | 08:23 |
| wasabi_ | That way the file must originate from the same source whose archives are being added. | 08:23 |
| mvo | right, that sounds sensible | 08:25 |
| Riddell | pitti: will you be able to review kmplayer and knetworkmanager for main inclusion before beta freeze? | 08:26 |
| wasabi_ | Also, I want to talk about this in a better forum. For the entire idea to succeed, there has to be some marketing push behind it. | 08:26 |
| pitti | Riddell: yes, will process the list in the next days | 08:26 |
| wasabi_ | We want ISVs to actually support it, and publish their software with it. | 08:26 |
| pitti | Riddell: kmplayer sounds suspicious :) is it *that* mplayer/ | 08:27 |
| pitti | ? | 08:27 |
| Riddell | pitti: we use the xine plugin | 08:27 |
| pitti | ah | 08:27 |
| Riddell | and don't even build the mplayer one as I remember | 08:27 |

| luopio | Tm_T: ok | 10:16 |
| Tm_T | thanks | 10:16 |
| bluefoxicy | tseng: so as opposed to changing the kernel package, you have to...? Change the kernel package, alter scripts to copy vmlinuz-{version}{thing}-01, change the location of modules hard-coded into a script...? | 10:16 |
| tseng | uh, what | 10:16 |
| bluefoxicy | tseng: I just don't understand the problem at all, perhaps you could explain what it takes to build a CD besides picking packages and running a build script | 10:17 |
| bluefoxicy | is there an #ubuntu-mkcd or such? | 10:17 |
| tseng | exactly that, but you dont just change core packages like the kernel in the middle of the process | 10:17 |
| tseng | "lockstep actions" include having a matching version of linux-restricted-modules | 10:18 |
| bluefoxicy | I would assume you would do something like drop in a new kernel core package, rebuild the CD, burn/qemu, test, and then nod and smile when it works | 10:18 |
| bluefoxicy | ah | 10:18 |
| tseng | which can sometimes lag by days | 10:18 |

| tseng | and the testing process for flight cds is a litle more involved | 10:18 |
| tseng | including installs and livecd tests on at least 3 archs | 10:19 |
| bluefoxicy | however I'm assuming that you don't release kernel-x without -restricted-modules-x | 10:19 |
| tseng | you assumed wrong | 10:19 |
| bluefoxicy | ah | 10:19 |
| tseng | rolling a flight release is a big production. | 10:19 |
| ogra | the kernel is also part of the installer and bootprocess of the CD ... that needs manual intervention | 10:19 |
| Mithrandir | tseng: for each of ubuntu, kubuntu, edubuntu and now xubuntu, yes. So it's a large amount of testing. | 10:19 |
| tseng | Mithrandir: indeed. | 10:19 |
| bluefoxicy | this isn't fairly distributed between devs? | 10:20 |
| bluefoxicy | I would think for each project there's a dev sitting around who can test it | 10:20 |
| bluefoxicy | as opposed to one guy in his basement with 60 hot pockets rabidly changing CDs between 5 machines and 2 qemu installs | 10:20 |
| tseng | there are about 30 "core dev" folks atm | 10:20 |
| ogra | you still have to download the isos, burn them and install them before testing | 10:20 |
| Mithrandir | bluefoxicy: sure, it'd be ideal if we had an army of testers who jumped at every opportunity to test a new fresh image. Unfortunately we don't. | 10:21 |
| tseng | only a handful are responsible for release management | 10:21 |
| bluefoxicy | ah | 10:21 |
| ogra | edubuntu are 6 CDs i have to sync ... if i discover something critical i can rebuild the whole set and start over | 10:21 |
| Mithrandir | bluefoxicy: it's also that we don't want to have to stop development for a day or two every second week because we're releasing a flight. Just freezing the archive slows us down enough. | 10:21 |
| ogra | testing flights is very time consuming ... | 10:21 |
| bluefoxicy | so one more question | 10:22 |
| bluefoxicy | kernel freeze is may 18, 2.6.16 is out, 2.6.17 is in RC1 so it probably won't be out by next month, unless tehy release before RC9 this time | 10:22 |
| bluefoxicy | (what was Linus' record, RC14?) | 10:22 |
| Mithrandir | our 2.6.15 is probably fairly close to 2.6.16. | 10:23 |
| bluefoxicy | is it likely we will see 2.6.16 in Dapper, or is it more probable that we're sticking with .15 + bug fixes? | 10:23 |
| bluefoxicy | probably | 10:23 |
| tseng | .15 is a sure bet | 10:23 |
| ogra | .15 | 10:23 |
| bluefoxicy | alright | 10:23 |
| tseng | if you have a bug solved in a later release, file it now | 10:24 |
| tseng | get it backported | 10:24 |
| bluefoxicy | I don't, I am more trying to find a bug solved and don't know if it is even relavent. The LKML totally ignored the message I posted asking. | 10:24 |
| tseng | well | 10:24 |
| tseng | I have some ideas why :) | 10:24 |
| bluefoxicy | that would, btw, be that the via DRM driver in the kernel causes hard freezes | 10:24 |
| bluefoxicy | when i boot X using driver 'via' I pretty much die on screen savers :/ | 10:25 |
| bluefoxicy | if I look in time, dmesg starts piling up with oopses on various things, once in a while there's a NULL pointer deref in kernel space, etc. | 10:25 |
| bluefoxicy | I have no idea if it's fixed in a newer release, maybe I should build a 2.6.17 some time and see. | 10:26 |
| bluefoxicy | it's a mix between plain laziness, and not wanting to test something that's going to crash my production PC, which I hate shutting down anyway | 10:26 |
| crimsun | (you're already running dapper on your production...) | 10:27 |
| bluefoxicy | but either way, it otherwise works | 10:27 |
| ogra | crimsun, shhh | 10:27 |
| bluefoxicy | crimsun: yes, witth visible effects | 10:27 |
| bluefoxicy | (rhythmbox:16578): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_pad_push: assertion `GST_IS_PAD (pad)' failed | 10:27 |
| bluefoxicy | Segmentation fault | 10:27 |
| bluefoxicy | That being a recurrant one :) | 10:27 |
| bluefoxicy | crimsun: my strategy is pretty much, "If it breaks, I find a work-around to keep the system alive until they fix it, and file a bug." | 10:28 |
| bluefoxicy | at least I'm contributing something ;) | 10:28 |
| dieman | wow | 10:29 |
| bluefoxicy | at any rate, no chance of 2.6.16+ in dapper, not a big deal. I was just curious. | 10:29 |

| === bluefoxicy <3 where ubuntu is going :) | ||
| bluefoxicy | of course they also have rpm rollbacks, which is important too. deb rollbacks would be great, install a broken package, roll it back to a working one. That's an important feature for enterprise data centers. | 10:34 |
| Mithrandir | it'd be really sweet to have a proper AD killer. | 10:34 |
| bluefoxicy | Mithrandir: you can set up roaming profiles on LDAP, what else does AD do? | 10:35 |

| bluefoxicy | yes | 10:36 |
| bluefoxicy | ldap does that | 10:36 |
| Mithrandir | it also gives you nice things like two-way authentication of services. | 10:36 |
| Mithrandir | single-sign-on. | 10:36 |
| wasabi_ | I've been having some probs with restricted-modules. | 10:36 |
| bluefoxicy | what we need is a UI to configure OpenLDAP and administrate it (Directory Administrator is nice... but something closer to our current utils would be good) | 10:36 |
| wasabi_ | Not running depmod properly. | 10:36 |
| bluefoxicy | A configuration util for OLDAP is non-existent | 10:36 |
| Mithrandir | bluefoxicy: you shouldn't have your passwords in ldap. | 10:36 |
| wasabi_ | Havne't been able to pinpoint the problem, beacuse running depmod fixes it. ;0 | 10:36 |
| bluefoxicy | we'd need something to set up the server, initialize the things for storing passwords and accounts in MD5, import or generate an openssl X.509 cert, set up TLS... | 10:37 |

| dieman | yeah | 10:43 |
| dieman | i just skimmed it | 10:43 |
| wasabi_ | libnss_ldap should discover it's info from DNS properly, which it doesn't. | 10:43 |
| wasabi_ | libpam-krb5 barely functions. | 10:43 |
| dieman | we're actually still a nis shop here | 10:43 |

| wasabi_ | krb5 is there. ;) | 10:46 |
| bluefoxicy | wasabi_: ldap over TLS | 10:46 |
| wasabi_ | Not much need for that with krb5. | 10:46 |
| wasabi_ | Which provides channel encryption on it's own. | 10:46 |
| bluefoxicy | KRB5 does what | 10:46 |
| wasabi_ | kerberos | 10:46 |
| bluefoxicy | I know | 10:46 |
| bluefoxicy | TLS does certificated authentication with X.509 certificates verifiable against a certificate authority | 10:47 |
| wasabi_ | Ticket based auth. It's what AD uses. | 10:47 |
| bluefoxicy | ticket based auth? | 10:47 |
| wasabi_ | A user logs in by asking kerberos to send them a ticket. | 10:47 |
| wasabi_ | They use that ticket to access subsequent services, without being reasked for password. | 10:47 |
| bluefoxicy | ah | 10:47 |
| wasabi_ | single sign-on, etc. | 10:47 |
| bluefoxicy | you could LDAP with KRB5 as a backend | 10:47 |
| wasabi_ | For instance, reading the user list from LDAP should be a privledged operation. | 10:47 |
| bluefoxicy | err. | 10:48 |
| bluefoxicy | other way | 10:48 |
| bluefoxicy | KRB5 with LDAP as a backend | 10:48 |
| wasabi_ | Sure, but mit krb5 doesn't do that well, and heimdal only does that with samba built extensions. | 10:48 |
| Mithrandir | wasabi_: uh, how can that be a priviledged operation? | 10:48 |
| bluefoxicy | so security wise they're equivalent, but functionality wise KRB5 allows for single sign-on? | 10:48 |
| wasabi_ | Mithrandir: You log onto your system with a kerberos password and get a ticket. | 10:48 |
| wasabi_ | You use that ticket to list users later. | 10:48 |
| wasabi_ | LDAP shouldn't allow non-ticketed connections, ideally. | 10:49 |
| wasabi_ | in AD it doesn't, etc. | 10:49 |
| Mithrandir | wasabi_: stuff run from cron needs to be able to see who owns a file too. | 10:49 |
| wasabi_ | Stuff run from cron should have a keytab. | 10:49 |
| wasabi_ | as it does in windows. | 10:49 |
| bluefoxicy | Mithrandir: easily, you remove NULL BASE dn listing, turn off anonymous LDAP, and set up each authenticating system to use a privileged cd,dn + password to access the data needed to authenticate? | 10:49 |
| wasabi_ | Each machine in AD has a network user account. When the machine boots it logs in, just like a user. | 10:49 |
| wasabi_ | And uses that account for network access. | 10:49 |
| bluefoxicy | Mithrandir: Or just put krb5 in front of ldap, either or. | 10:50 |
| wasabi_ | It also changes it's own password randomlly, etc. | 10:50 |
| bluefoxicy | wasabi_: does krb5 allow other information to be stored, as ldap does? | 10:50 |
| wasabi_ | cron jobs that run as root should be able to access LDAP using the computer account. | 10:50 |
| wasabi_ | No. | 10:50 |
| Mithrandir | bluefoxicy: congratulations, you just broke ls -l if your network is down. :-P | 10:50 |
| wasabi_ | Mithrandir: more underlying stuff that needs to be fixed. | 10:50 |
| bluefoxicy | wasabi_: public keys, roaming profiles..? | 10:50 |
| wasabi_ | Mithrandir: need a client cache in front of NSS. | 10:50 |
| wasabi_ | Or behind it. ;) | 10:50 |
| Mithrandir | uh, what information is it that you store in ldap which is secret? | 10:50 |
| bluefoxicy | Mithrandir: if you're already logged in ls should work o.o | 10:50 |
| wasabi_ | nscd, if it didn't suck horribly, would be it. | 10:50 |
| bluefoxicy | Mithrandir: user names are secret. | 10:51 |
| wasabi_ | Mithrandir: the user's themselves. | 10:51 |
| wasabi_ | A random computer sitting on my network should not be able to access that. | 10:51 |
| bluefoxicy | Mithrandir: haven't you noticed using a bad user or password gives "bad username or password"? | 10:51 |
| Mithrandir | bluefoxicy: no, they're not. User names are usually trivially discoverable. | 10:51 |
| bluefoxicy | not "That user doesn't exist" or "bad password"? | 10:51 |
| wasabi_ | Mithrandir: Might also be a requirement of corporate/gov policy. | 10:51 |
| bluefoxicy | Mithrandir: yeah, by hitting www.foo.com/~user with various users | 10:51 |
| wasabi_ | Mithrandir: for example, AD doesn't allow non kerberos authetnicated connections, by default. | 10:52 |
| wasabi_ | So somebody can't walk in with a laptop and access the user list. | 10:52 |
| wasabi_ | They actually have to hack something. | 10:52 |
| Mithrandir | wasabi_: that doesn't say anything about why being able to list the users on a system which you have authenticated to is bad. | 10:52 |
| wasabi_ | It's not. I didn't say that. | 10:52 |
| wasabi_ | If you've authenticated, you can list the users. | 10:52 |
| wasabi_ | But you must be authenticated. | 10:52 |
| bluefoxicy | Mithrandir: being able to list users on a system you don't have access to. | 10:52 |
| wasabi_ | being able to walk onto the company premisis and plugin a laptop and access the company user list is bad. | 10:53 |
| bluefoxicy | Mithrandir: I want to hack Accounting, I'm pretty sure Larry's password is something about his dog spot, probably spotty1 or such | 10:53 |
| wasabi_ | That's all. | 10:53 |
| wasabi_ | Some privacy laws even protect against it. | 10:53 |
| bluefoxicy | Mithrandir: Either A) I don't work for the firm; or B) I can get the users for my area, but not for the accounting network, which stores its data in a separate privilege area. | 10:54 |
| bluefoxicy | Mithrandir: So I have to guess what Larry's accounti s first, blindly. | 10:54 |
| wasabi_ | too many cooks. | 10:54 |
| bluefoxicy | Or, I just dump a list of users, notice lwall06, figure out this is Larry, and try 2 attempts and get in. | 10:54 |
| wasabi_ | Blue, that doesn't matter. You need to be doing so from a company system. | 10:55 |
| lamont | pitti: ping | 10:55 |
| wasabi_ | It needs to be auditable. | 10:55 |
| === Mithrandir shrugs; user names are not passwords. Don't treat them like they are. | ||
| wasabi_ | Mithrandir: they aren't, but they are secret. | 10:55 |
| wasabi_ | Mithrandir: ie you shouldn't be able to get a big list of user names unless you're allowed to. | 10:55 |
| bluefoxicy | confidential, perhaps not secret. | 10:55 |
| wasabi_ | Sure. | 10:56 |
| wasabi_ | Also it needs to be auditable. The LDAP server needs to be able to record what human being requested the list, so they can be investigated. | 10:56 |
| bluefoxicy | wasabi_: I do not understand how kerberos auth is supposed to work, though. Where is the ticket stored? | 10:56 |
| wasabi_ | bluefoxicy: local machine. | 10:56 |
| bluefoxicy | wasabi I mean Icould set up krb5 here right? I have an ldap server behind me | 10:57 |
| wasabi_ | Yup. | 10:57 |
| bluefoxicy | and I could rig pam to use krb5 auth right? | 10:57 |
| wasabi_ | I have it set up at home, because I do this a lot. | 10:57 |
| bluefoxicy | but what would that get me | 10:57 |
| wasabi_ | All my computers, laptops included, use pam_krb5 and libnss. | 10:57 |
| bluefoxicy | besides pam logging in with krb5 auth? | 10:57 |
| wasabi_ | Get you? | 10:57 |
| bluefoxicy | I could try to modify stuff in the ldap directory | 10:57 |
| bluefoxicy | and it would probably not run to pam and say "You have a ticket right? Lemme use it" | 10:57 |
| wasabi_ | My needs are a) to test it, because I deploy it in companies. I need to know it works. b) single sign on. | 10:57 |

| Chipzz | Mithrandir: kerberos can do realm discovery via dns | 10:59 |
| wasabi_ | Mithrandir: In AD the machine has two pieces of info. It's domain name and it's machine name. | 11:00 |
| wasabi_ | It uses the domain name to do service discovery in DNS. | 11:00 |
| wasabi_ | And it's machine name to login. | 11:00 |
| wasabi_ | Oh and it has a machine password. ;) | 11:00 |

| Mithrandir | bluefoxicy: you use another authentication mechanismn than the regular basic authentication. | 11:02 |
| bluefoxicy | sweet. | 11:02 |
| wasabi_ | Firefox's implementation doesn't read from the ticket cache though. | 11:02 |

| Keybuk | if it's left as an empty directory, remove it and restore the symlink | 11:17 |
| seb128 | Keybuk: like, if that's a dir, rm and redo the symlink? | 11:17 |
| Keybuk | yup | 11:17 |
| seb128 | k, thank you | 11:17 |
| pitti | Keybuk: is that a bug or a feature? | 11:17 |
| === bddebian curses qgis | ||
| bluefoxicy | wasabi_: OpenLDAP can function as a CA AFAIK. Group policy...? | 11:17 |
| wasabi_ | openldap can store CA data, but not function as a CA. | 11:17 |
| bluefoxicy | oh | 11:17 |
| wasabi_ | openldap is a ldap server. | 11:17 |
| Keybuk | pitti: feature | 11:17 |
| bluefoxicy | hm. | 11:17 |
| wasabi_ | group policy are objects in AD which machines can apply to enable/disable features and change settings, network wide. | 11:18 |
| wasabi_ | Such as automated software installs, hiding the run menu, changing hte home page. | 11:18 |
| wasabi_ | To stuff such as distributing certificates. | 11:18 |
| bluefoxicy | oh, very windows specific then | 11:18 |
| mdke | seb128, did you see my mail ages ago about making epiphany take different default homepages, depending on locale? Any idea if it's possible somehow? np if not | 11:18 |
| wasabi_ | Yup. | 11:18 |
| Burgwork | bluefoxicy, gpo are very powerful but also fairly arcane and a source of much headache | 11:18 |
| wasabi_ | I think some PADL project actually made headway there. | 11:18 |
| seb128 | mdke: yeah, sorry, it's on my pile of "to reply" mails, I'm catching up atm | 11:18 |

| seb128 | mdke: I've just replied to the "utch, no quality control from translations on rosetta" replies on the l10n french list | 11:19 |
| dieman | group policy is evil stuff | 11:19 |
| bluefoxicy | wasabi_: okay so, is there a way to implement authentication through an open source server such as OLDAP or Heimdal KRB5, storing the roaming profiles on an open source samba server | 11:19 |
| mdke | seb128, no problem. I thought the answer might be a simple "no", so I thought I'd ping you. if the answer is "possibly yes", then awesome! | 11:19 |
| dieman | we've already got cfengine | 11:19 |
| dieman | really | 11:19 |
| wasabi_ | bluefoxicy: Sure, Samba. ;) | 11:19 |
| bluefoxicy | wasabi_: and then set up a Windows Active Directory Server to get its auth info from those sources? | 11:19 |
| === bpuccio [n=brian@ool-457a9c38.dyn.optonline.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| wasabi_ | Nope. | 11:19 |
| seb128 | mdke: they forwarded your mail to discuss how to organize the team | 11:19 |
| mdke | seb128, in french, I guess? | 11:19 |
| dieman | cfengine can exact its policy from netgroups specified via LDAP | 11:19 |
| bluefoxicy | wasabi_: so in other words I can't set up the network to be expanded later? | 11:20 |
| mdke | seb128, my french is rubbish | 11:20 |
| wasabi_ | You can't do what you want to do right now. | 11:20 |
| wasabi_ | And if you kill AD, you will lose windows features. | 11:20 |
| seb128 | mdke: yeah, but nothing really useful. I pinged carlos today, my idea of an easy way would be "lock when somebody starts a translation, mail the diff when he unlocks it" | 11:20 |
| === bddebian misses seb128 in #u-bugs :-) | ||
| bluefoxicy | wasabi_: what I want to do right now is set up small IT shops with full open source setups | 11:20 |
| wasabi_ | bluefoxicy: then use Linux desktops. | 11:20 |
| dieman | you can do roming profiles on samba, at least in old school pdc mode. | 11:21 |
| mdke | seb128, sounds like a decent idea. 250 is a big group to handle :) | 11:21 |
| dieman | im not sure the extent of what samba doing ad can do | 11:21 |
| wasabi_ | Yeah. You still do NT4 mode. | 11:21 |
| seb128 | mdke: mail going to a list, so it's easy to read what the person did and to fix errors and notice if the guys does it wrongly | 11:21 |
| dieman | i thought the newer releases have reasonable ad capabilities | 11:21 |
| seb128 | mdke: yeah :/ | 11:21 |
| seb128 | mdke: for epiphany I don't know but I'll ping upstream ;) | 11:21 |
| mdke | seb128, rocking. thanks dude | 11:22 |
| wasabi_ | dieman: For joining to AD, not for hosting it. | 11:22 |
| dieman | wasabi_: ahh, ok | 11:22 |
| bluefoxicy | wasabi_: I'm waiting for Ubuntu having the easy network authentication setup, like RHEL and Fedora do, because then I can use Ubuntu desktops ($250 for 1 year of support up to 10 incidents?) and RHEL servers ($2500 service contract???) in a mixed shop. | 11:22 |
| wasabi_ | Linux can join to AD wonderfully. | 11:22 |
| wasabi_ | CIFS support still sucks bad. | 11:22 |
| seb128 | mdke: np | 11:22 |
| bluefoxicy | wasabi but AD costs too much money :) | 11:22 |
| bluefoxicy | if someone so desired they could go supportless fedora core/ubuntu desktop and CentOS/Ubuntu server. | 11:23 |
| pitti | Keybuk: what's the use case for that feature? | 11:23 |
| wasabi_ | Well, I know of no open source/free alternative to AD which actually delivers on what AD does. | 11:23 |
| wasabi_ | Which is massive ease of use, for a small shop. | 11:23 |
| wasabi_ | And automatic configuration of each host. | 11:23 |
| bluefoxicy | wasabi a small shop may not have the $3000 for Win2k3 server | 11:23 |
| wasabi_ | The pieces are there, but you set them up yourself. | 11:23 |
| bluefoxicy | they may have a good $100,000 start-up loan sitting around, but you don't want to blow a grand here and there. | 11:23 |
| wasabi_ | I'd charge any shop more than $3000 for the man hours involved to set up a Linux LDAP/kerberos setup to serve windows. | 11:24 |
| wasabi_ | Nuff said. | 11:24 |
| seb128 | mdke: <chpe> seb128: the home page is stored in gconf, and gconf supports localised prefs, so yes :) | 11:24 |
| wasabi_ | And win2k3 server is actually like $800. | 11:24 |
| mdke | seb128, wooo | 11:24 |
| wasabi_ | Or get SBS. It's less. ;) | 11:24 |
| bluefoxicy | wasabi start-ups can start on full linux but I'd like to make an expansion path that allows for integrating OSX and Windows if desired. | 11:24 |
| wasabi_ | Or help with the programming heh. | 11:24 |
| mdke | seb128, we've already started shipping translations (or links, where I haven't got translations yet), they are in /usr/share/ubuntu-artwork/home | 11:25 |
| bluefoxicy | nothing would be cooler though then setting up a small 5-10 PC linux shop for a small business and 4 years down the line they have 40,000 machines and no Windows in site. | 11:25 |
| dieman | omfg, the russians want to drive a gold plated golf ball of the ISS | 11:25 |
| dieman | off of | 11:25 |
| dieman | as a stunt | 11:25 |
| bluefoxicy | dieman so, they're russians, they're up there drinking wodka | 11:25 |
| dieman | oh, and im in the wrong chan for this :) | 11:26 |
| dieman | i thought i was in my idle chan | 11:26 |
| dieman | sorry about that :) | 11:26 |
| bluefoxicy | send them some female astronauts, they'll stop worrying about driving golf balls... | 11:26 |

| bluefoxicy | wasabi_: i am in general untrusting of microsoft's products. I don't pretend to understand them, but I fear the defaults. SQL server had default users and passwords that got owned by SqlSlammer.F >< | 11:29 |
| wasabi_ | I'm not suggesting to use WIndows. I'm just telling you what it is and what it does, and what *I* have yet to find a replcement for. | 11:30 |
| wasabi_ | And this has become offtopic. PM or something. | 11:30 |
| bluefoxicy | My idea of installing something is that anything that requires attention, such as administrative passwords, dangerous default settings (i.e. unencrypted connections? OpenLDAP without tls!) are mandatory for you to set up | 11:30 |

| Keybuk | pitti: :( | 11:52 |
| Keybuk | pitti: I'm having one of those "I *know* this worked once, because I tested it; so why is it flat-out not working now?" moments | 11:52 |
| pitti | Keybuk: I wish diff -Nur would consider symlinks :/ | 11:53 |
| Keybuk | pitti: I tend to use comm on the file lists | 11:53 |
| pitti | Keybuk: what broke for you? | 11:53 |
| Keybuk | pitti: if you rename eth1 to "foo", it still calls "ifup eth1" | 11:53 |
| pitti | 'it' being? | 11:54 |
| Keybuk | udev | 11:54 |
| pitti | oh, udev ifup's stuff? | 11:54 |
| Keybuk | this is why it sometimes hangs on "Configuring network interfaces" | 11:54 |
| Keybuk | both devices call "ifup eth0", leaving the "ifup -a" to do eth1 later | 11:54 |
| Keybuk | I know it damned well worked when I wrote the patch | 11:54 |
| Keybuk | so something in udev changed since, and we didn't notice (other than the occasional "hangs for a minute at ifup -a" bugs) | 11:54 |
| pitti | hm, I never encountered that one | 11:55 |
| Keybuk | yeah, it's a hard one to spot ;) most people have eth0 and eth1, and both on auto, and it looks like it works :p it doesn't matter that the wrong event is ifuping the wrong interface <g> | 11:55 |
| Keybuk | but is a *bad* bug | 11:56 |
| Keybuk | I know what's causing it now, fortunately | 11:56 |
| Keybuk | the $env{INTERFACE} in the RUN rule is expanded *before* the device is renamed | 11:56 |
| Keybuk | so there must have been a change in the way that works | 11:56 |
| Keybuk | and then, after this, I have to work out why "blacklist pcspkr" doesn't | 11:57 |
