| kmon | may I ask if after the beta release the new ati drivers will be added to dapper? | 12:08 |
|---|---|---|
| mathrick | jdong: umm, no | 12:12 |
| jdong | nm, already in malone (33811) | 12:12 |
| jdong | kind of concerned me at first :) | 12:12 |
| mdke | kmon, no | 12:12 |
| jdong | that'd be a good bug to fix :) | 12:13 |
| jdong | simple two-liner, but pretty important if we don't want to break hard drives for beta testers | 12:13 |
| kmon | mdke: may I ask why? | 12:14 |
| mdke | kmon, new drivers don't get added at the last minute, there is quite a rigorous release cycle that Ubuntu adhers to. Check out https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseSchedule for any more details | 12:17 |
| kmon | mdke: new nvidia drivers were added not too long ago... and since they provide support for newer ati x1xxx cards and we haven't yet arrived The kernel freeze.... I thought it was a good addition | 12:18 |
| KaiL | so better the guarantee, that Ubuntu is unusable on ATI X1xxx-Chips (as also the vesa-fix didn't happen), that a rather small risk, that there are problems on older cards? | 12:18 |
| kmon | mdke: anyway, thanks for answering... | 12:18 |
| mdke | kmon, if there is just something for the kernel, I suppose the developers might consider it. It would depend on the risk of adding problems. File a bug, and see what they say | 12:20 |
| jdong | kmon: does the new update add new chipsets? | 12:22 |
| jdong | do we currently support the X1xxx chipsets? | 12:22 |
| jdong | they're pretty common on new laptops | 12:23 |
| kmon | jdong: yes | 12:23 |
| kmon | jdong: https://a248.e.akamai.net/f/674/9206/0/www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/linux_8.24.8.html#178987 | 12:23 |
| mdke | jdong, a few lines up, he said that these aren't yet supported | 12:23 |
| KaiL | jdong, currently you end up in blue with X1xxx | 12:23 |
| jdong | I see | 12:23 |
| jdong | I'd say this is a worthwhile update then.... | 12:23 |
| jdong | at least to try | 12:23 |
| KaiL | means, they are TOTALLY unsupported without the new driver | 12:23 |
| KaiL | except vesa, which you need to set manually | 12:23 |
| kmon | as a bonus, someone said it fixes issues kdm has with fglrx | 12:24 |
| kmon | but I'm not sure about that | 12:24 |
| kmon | anyway, I agree with you, it's a wothwile update | 12:24 |
| KaiL | kmon, I don#t even know, it ANY update is more worth currently | 12:25 |
| mdke | KaiL, let's try and stop being melodramatic about this. Just file a bug, and wait and see | 12:26 |
| mdke | maybe there is already a bug about this | 12:27 |
| kmon | for the record I haven't found a bug report, so I've filed a whishlist: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/39924 | 12:27 |

| mdke | nice | 12:28 |
| mdke | if vesa isn't working as a backstop, that's another bug, I suppose | 12:28 |

| KaiL | for the other problem with modern laptops (intel ipw3945) putting them into the backports might be an idea | 12:36 |
| KaiL | overall using backports for updated external drivers would be nice... | 12:36 |
| cartel_ | Manoj: ping | 12:36 |
| jdong | KaiL: I was told by sabdfl last night that 3945 will be in dapper | 12:36 |
| jdong | it's being worked on | 12:36 |
| crimsun | cartel_: ECHANNEL? | 12:36 |
| jdong | he feels it's very important | 12:36 |
| KaiL | jdong, even better | 12:36 |
| cartel_ | crimsun: oops | 12:37 |
| jdong | and I'm pretty uneasy about using backports for kernel drivers | 12:37 |
| jdong | unless there's some serious coordinating with the -securty branch.... you're gonna end up with a nightmare of broken modules during security updates | 12:37 |
| crimsun | if you value your life, don't mention the strings "backport" and "kernel" in the same breath around the kernel team | 12:37 |
| jdong | lol | 12:37 |
| KaiL | lol | 12:38 |
| jdong | crimsun: not even with a "not" somewhere in the sentence? | 12:38 |
| jdong | I've only B'd a K once... in the Warty days, for a friend :) | 12:38 |
| crimsun | (well, unless it's something backported from >2.6.15 into Dapper's) | 12:38 |
| jdong | you sure you don't want 2.6.15-20 for warty? ;) | 12:39 |
| jdong | lol | 12:39 |
| cartel_ | can we get 2.6.16? :) | 12:39 |
| Burgwork | cartel_, bi | 12:39 |
| Burgwork | no, even | 12:39 |
| === KaiL rememberes of the 2.6.11 in hoary universe...:) | ||
| KaiL | afaik it doesn't even boot for most people | 12:39 |
| Burgwork | KaiL, that is something they are not repeating | 12:39 |
| jdong | lol | 12:40 |
| jdong | that was entertaining | 12:40 |
| KaiL | that's why I only thought about this drivers | 12:40 |
| jdong | or that crappy ooo2 snapshot in universe... m79... | 12:40 |
| jdong | KaiL: a lot of times you can't isolate just drivers | 12:40 |
| jdong | drivers love to patch elsewhere onto the system | 12:40 |
| jdong | especially 3945... that thing has a usermode closed source regulator daemon | 12:40 |
| KaiL | I don't know, but it should be possible, to recreate the linux-restricted-modules packages and the related stuff with new data afterwards, or? | 12:41 |
| LaserJock | hmm, and I wanted a forward-ported 2.4 kernel ;-) | 12:41 |
| KaiL | jdong, at most I'm thinking about fglrx and nvidia | 12:41 |
| jdong | KaiL: currently, backports is not authorized to modify source packages. What if a security update requires a patch for nvidia or fglrx to compile? | 12:42 |
| jdong | then you end up with a screwed situation | 12:42 |
| jdong | of backports not being able to keep up with -security | 12:42 |
| jdong | and everyone bitches and screams | 12:42 |
| jdong | and I lose more years off my life expectancy | 12:42 |
| === j_ack [n=nico@p508D9916.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| KaiL | at least for a longer future, we need to find a solution, how to update at least important drivers after the release... | 12:43 |
| jdong | agreed... | 12:43 |
| jdong | even if that means a nasty updater script | 12:43 |
| KaiL | else you always have a hole of up to 7, maybe 8 month, between hardware release and using it on ubuntu | 12:44 |
| jdong | KaiL: what stops users from updating drivers themselves? | 12:44 |
| jdong | we can't be bug-free and bleeding edge at the same time.... | 12:44 |
| jdong | it's physically not possible | 12:44 |
| KaiL | the very complicate system to update them? | 12:44 |
| jdong | very complicated? | 12:45 |
| jdong | with nivida, it's two commands | 12:45 |
| KaiL | yes, there | 12:45 |
| jdong | is it that bad for fglrx? | 12:45 |
| KaiL | but that's not the normal situation | 12:45 |
| KaiL | (not to mention, that you need as least 3 for nvidia) | 12:45 |
| jdong | sudo sh nvidia-installer-package | 12:46 |
| jdong | ok, fine, apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r` | 12:46 |
| jdong | apt-get remove nvidia-glx --purge | 12:46 |
| jdong | maybe there are three | 12:46 |
| jdong | :) | 12:46 |
| KaiL | wget | 12:46 |
| KaiL | and install build-essential | 12:46 |
| KaiL | makes 4 lines ;) | 12:46 |
| jdong | lol | 12:47 |
| jdong | sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r` build-essential | 12:47 |
| KaiL | at least more that "click on the installer", and even that is bad enough | 12:47 |
| KaiL | apt-get install, apt-get remove, wget, sh - 4. | 12:47 |
| KaiL | now all happy? ;) | 12:48 |
| sabdfl | jdong: i don't know about 3945, i hope it is on track, but it's up to benc | 12:48 |
| jdong | make a shell script that automates all of them, and distribute it as the next new Automatix :) | 12:48 |
| jdong | well, he did say "in progress", so my hopes are up :) | 12:48 |
| BenC | ipw3945 is showing a lot of problems because of "yet another ieee80211 stack update" | 12:48 |
| jdong | :-/ | 12:48 |
| KaiL | ugs | 12:49 |
| jdong | KaiL, you were saying about driver updates?...... ;) | 12:49 |
| sabdfl | hi BenC | 12:49 |
| BenC | all of our wireless adapters are using different and sometimes incredibly hacked versions of ieee80211 | 12:49 |
| BenC | hey sabdfl | 12:49 |
| KaiL | jdong, ? | 12:49 |
| jdong | not so easy, is it? | 12:49 |
| sabdfl | seems insane that there's so little common wireless infrastructure in the kernel | 12:49 |
| jdong | BenC: btw, I do appreciate how many wireless adapters we support out-of-the-box | 12:49 |
| BenC | ipw3945 will make it into dapper, but it's just not super priority ATM | 12:49 |
| jdong | thanks, BenC... glad to hear :) | 12:50 |
| BenC | sabdfl: the wireless confcerence going on as we speak will hopefully address that | 12:50 |
| KaiL | sabdfl, even worse, that these are 3 versions from intel.. | 12:50 |
| BenC | softmac and all the rt2x00 stuff, and stock ieee80211 will hopefully be pretty standard in 2.6.18, for dapper+1 | 12:50 |
| jdong | does anyone know if rt2x00 plays better with preempt and SMP yet? | 12:51 |
| jdong | rt2570.. the USB one particularly | 12:51 |
| KaiL | another word to raise the aggressions: WPA | 12:51 |
| KaiL | something new on that? | 12:51 |
| jdong | it does everything from locking to panicing if you breathe incorrectly on the card | 12:51 |
| BenC | rt2x00 looked pretty discusting last I checked, so no telling :) | 12:51 |
| BenC | disgusting | 12:52 |
| jdong | and it was supposedto be the wonderful rewrite, too | 12:52 |
| jdong | lol | 12:52 |
| KaiL | it's now in main, ok, but to use it, you'll need to fight with /etc/network/interfaces manually? | 12:52 |
| jdong | KaiL: networkmanager deals with it... right? | 12:52 |
| jdong | it'd be cool if our /etc/network/interfaces frontend did, too... | 12:52 |
| KaiL | jdong, which got kicked out of the live-cd afaik | 12:53 |
| BenC | one day I'll make the switch to WPA so I can test all that, but right now I'm still on 128-bit WEP | 12:53 |
| jdong | oh? | 12:53 |
| jdong | so does the 3945 driver not compile at all currently on dapper? | 12:54 |
| jdong | or is it just a matter of packaging/integrating into the ubuntu kernel that's the problem? | 12:55 |
| KaiL | or it just killes other WLAN drivers | 12:55 |
| === mgalvin [n=mgalvin@ubuntu/member/mgalvin] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| BenC | the ieee80211 for 3945 stack needs to be segregated so it doesn't conflict with the stock one in 2.6.15 | 12:56 |
| BenC | we did that for another wireless driver aswell | 12:56 |

| doko | mdz: so we have to decide if ship with a default font that makes document print wrong. I cannot see an alternative at the moment, I asked Diziet if he could overwrite the font selection for firefox. | 01:37 |
| mdz | doko: if the fonts that we use to match fonts specified by web pages are bad, then we should match them to different fonts | 01:37 |
| jordi | Kamion: hmm, manpages written in UTF-8, what do you need to make them read correctly with man? | 01:37 |
| jordi | Kamion: should Spanish manpages be in latin1 instead? | 01:37 |
| Treenaks | *shudder*? | 01:38 |
| doko | mdz: we don't have a free font, whith the same metrics, which displays as well as DejaVu/Bistream Vera. | 01:38 |
| mdz | doko: here's an example of a page which looks ugly by default: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12496 | 01:38 |
| fabbione | mdz: in any case /etc/X11/X shouldn't be a blocker since it's a symlink to /usr/bin/Xorg | 01:38 |

| Mithrandir | Riddell: ok, upload away. | 01:43 |
| Mithrandir | infinity: around, and any chance you could drive LP by hand for me? | 01:43 |
| fabbione | mdz: it is overcomplicated for Ubuntu. it's not when/if we will add more xservers to the default | 01:43 |
| fabbione | mdz: but mostlikely some bits did break because nobody updated them | 01:44 |

| fabbione | mdz: ok i will look at it after Beta. | 01:45 |

| mdz | I've seen some weirdness when rebooting from casper | 03:05 |
| mdz | usplash not coming up at all, or hanging in sendsigs | 03:05 |
| Mithrandir | mdz: no, usplash used to quit about at the same time as "adding live cd user" due to udev changing the usplash timeout. | 03:05 |
| mdz | right, that was fixed in the previous build already | 03:05 |
| mdz | or else this machine is fast enough that it didn't happen | 03:06 |

| seb128 | mdz: hum, running "sudo gnome-session-save --kill" works fine on a betaCD candidate on my laptop | 04:01 |
| Mithrandir | hm, no, that'll nuke DISPLAY | 04:02 |
| mdz | Mithrandir: I tested it with sudo -H and it works | 04:02 |
| lamont | mvo: it's also possible that I consistantly screw up the password when prompted... | 04:02 |
| mdz | seb128: really? | 04:02 |
| lamont | I'll look at it more | 04:02 |
| seb128 | yeah, I've just tried | 04:02 |
| mdz | seb128: I did "gksudo gnome-session-save --kill" and that failed | 04:02 |
| mdz | seb128: this was after running espresso, though I don't see why that would change things | 04:03 |

| seb128 | sudo doesn't | 04:03 |
| mdz | interesting | 04:03 |
| seb128 | gksudo probably does some magic, like setting environment variable ... mvo? | 04:04 |
| Mithrandir | gksudo nukes env variables unless you pass -k | 04:04 |
| slomo_ | Mithrandir: what must be given for a main upload exception now? :) i have a small patch for avahi that only changes a binary package from universe | 04:05 |
| mdz | gksudo "env HOME=$HOME gnome-session-save --kill" works | 04:05 |
| Mithrandir | slomo_: is it urgent to get it into beta? | 04:05 |
| seb128 | gksudo -k "..." works fine | 04:05 |
| mdz | seb128: running all of espresso under -k could break other things, though | 04:05 |
| slomo_ | Mithrandir: no... just fixes a segfault in a universe package that affects only people on SMP... ok, so i put the first thing into my pending uploads queue :) | 04:06 |
| Mithrandir | slomo_: thanks. | 04:06 |

| Mithrandir | mdz: infinity, ogra, Riddell. | 04:15 |
| mdz | (infinity is asleep) | 04:16 |
| Mithrandir | mdz: anyway, if you upload before 1500, it'll be published by 1530, then binaries built and published by 1630. | 04:16 |
| mdz | I have privileges to do it, but I'm out of practice | 04:16 |
| ogra | then we cant do livefs | 04:16 |

| seb128 | pitti: it does that? DOH | 04:24 |
| pitti | seb128: just did for me when I copied a DVD image | 04:25 |
| mvo | BenC: I'm note sure that this is a good time for a kernel upload (talk to Mithrandir first) | 04:26 |
| Keybuk | mdz: biff | 04:26 |
| BenC | Mithrandir: ping | 04:26 |
| pitti | seb128: the copy is 4294967295 bytes (0xFFFFFFFF) and nautilus crashed at that point | 04:26 |
| seb128 | pitti: what source type? local file for both? | 04:27 |
| pitti | seb128: yes | 04:27 |
| seb128 | we are discussing a 2Go limitation on ftp atm on #ubuntu-bugs but you are not on the chan | 04:27 |
| seb128 | could be nice to have distro team people on that chan sometime :p | 04:27 |
| seb128 | (hint hint :p) | 04:27 |
| pitti | I *am* in that channel | 04:28 |
| pitti | (well, for 3 seconds *cough*) :) | 04:28 |
| seb128 | hehe | 04:28 |
| ogra | seb128, i had a similar support recently on the -users ML where i thought it was related to the user using userspace nfs, but switching to nfs-kernel-server didnt solve it | 04:28 |
| fabbione | BenC: even if you upload now, it won't be propagated to the installer, but it's probably better to wait for Mithrandir anyway. | 04:29 |
| fabbione | BenC: does it involve an ABI bump | 04:29 |
| fabbione | ? | 04:29 |
| BenC | unfortunuately | 04:29 |
| mvo | why does the espresso progress window likes to jump to the middle of the screen every few seconds? | 04:29 |
| fabbione | BenC: i am afraid it's post Beta | 04:30 |
| BenC | ran into a couple of snags during my builds last night, so I didn't get it done like I wanted to | 04:30 |
| fabbione | it takes too long to propagate an ABI bump | 04:30 |
| infinity | BenC: An ABI bump COULD be hand-massaged through if we had to, but it's probably better to just wait, and do a nice fat upload right after beta. | 04:31 |
| infinity | BenC: mdz's already asked me to hold off on an fglrx update until post-beta, so.. :) | 04:31 |
| BenC | no problem | 04:32 |

| infinity | janimo: ^^^^ | 04:35 |
| janimo | infinity, just seen it :) | 04:36 |
| Gloubiboulga | infinity, downloading :) | 04:36 |
| janimo | 367M ?that's so small | 04:36 |
| infinity | If one of you can let me know if that even does simple things, like, uhh, boot, then I'll go ahead and do the other arches. | 04:36 |
| bddebian | Wow, everyone is here today :-) | 04:36 |
| janimo | what's missing wrt install.iso? | 04:36 |
| infinity | janimo: I assume your desktop and live metapackages are a lot smaller than ubuntu's. | 04:36 |
| janimo | infinity: xubuntu-install.iso is 435M | 04:37 |
| janimo | is live generally 70 M less? | 04:37 |
| infinity | janimo: install includes the "ship" seed, live includes the "live" seed (but not ship). They don't really need to be anywhere near the same size. | 04:37 |
| infinity | janimo: They're your seeds, not mine, so I dunno. :) | 04:37 |
| janimo | infinity: ok thanks :) | 04:38 |
| infinity | janimo: Anyhow, keep in mind that everything on the livecd is installed, so don't bloat it out just for the sake of filling the CD. If your CDs are small because your desktop (with all the useful apps you want) is smaller, then just do the dance of "I have smaller CDs than you, nyah, nyah" | 04:38 |
| infinity | janimo: And start seeding lots of langpacks. :) | 04:39 |
| janimo | infinity: yes, I'll put lots of langpacks, so maybe no OOo for the livecd then | 04:39 |
| seb128 | hum | 04:40 |
| janimo | so startup time of livecd is proportional with size of packages on it? | 04:40 |
| infinity | janimo: Well, no. Apps that aren't running obviously won't hurt you. | 04:40 |
| seb128 | fresh install loops on "brltty[3003] : Not a serial device: /dev/ttyS0" | 04:40 |
| infinity | janimo: But adding more bling to your user's session and the like would be silly, if you're aiming for "fast and light" | 04:40 |
| janimo | infinity: you mean espresso install everything that's on livecd? | 04:40 |
| seb128 | like it's ~10% time it too me to notice and type that | 04:40 |
| seb128 | oh | 04:41 |
| janimo | in that case no OOo for sure, only in the ship seed | 04:41 |
| infinity | janimo: No, espresso is more clever than that. It installs everything that isn't pulled in by live. | 04:41 |
| seb128 | no, that's disk being checked due to mount count it seems | 04:41 |

| seb128 | but there is that label with the % displayed every few sec | 04:41 |
| infinity | janimo: I do livefs builds in two passes. I install minimal/base/desktop, then I do a manifest. Then I install live and casper, and build another manifest. Casper diffs those, and uninstalls everything that was pulled in by the second set. | 04:42 |
| infinity | janimo: In theory, a d-i installation and a capser installation should be close to identical, if you go with defaults for both, thanks to that crazy hack. | 04:42 |

| seb128 | (just pointing the issue I have as a normal user with the candidate install) | 04:53 |
| mvo | seb128: sure, but my theory is that for some reason during the install no apt-get update was run inside the chroot | 04:53 |
| seb128 | "issues" rather | 04:53 |
| seb128 | k, so you know about the issue, good | 04:53 |
| seb128 | let me know if I can be useful at providing logs, details, etc | 04:53 |

| infinity | doko: And felt the urge to file the bug again? ;) | 05:10 |
| infinity | pitti: Agreed. :/ | 05:11 |
| dholbach | Mithrandir: it's a change that defaults new users to the icon love, not the old gnome icon theme | 05:11 |
| pitti | most web pages look good, but generated directory listings now appear in some Courier font that looks ugly | 05:11 |
| doko | infinity: RAMDISK: ran out of compress data | 05:11 |
| ogra | infinity, yes, doko has fun with that, i also have some reopened ones ... he just cant accept a no ;) | 05:11 |

| infinity | doko: Yeah, same bug as has already been reported. It's RC. I'll fix it before we release, honest. | 05:11 |
| mvo | mdz: unfortunately the problem with the removal indication seems to be not that easy to fix because dpkg sends rather confusing state changes sometimes | 05:12 |
| Diziet | I mean, a file that came out wrong when printed, with the previous setup (before you reverted the removal of the aliases). | 05:12 |
| doko | http://people.ubuntu.com/~doko/svn-book.pdf | 05:12 |
| mjg59 | Oh urgh. | 05:12 |
| janimo | Mithrandir: whenever you have time, please make a xubuntu install cd | 05:13 |
| mjg59 | doko: The fonts changes are not only ugly, they're poorly hinted | 05:13 |

| Diziet | infinity: That's quite grim, isn't it ? | 05:14 |
| mjg59 | doko: I don't know that that's a question that makes sense | 05:14 |
| infinity | kerning is all wrong too, and seems to bounce around, depending on random things like line length and moon phase. | 05:14 |
| mjg59 | Surely it's Pango that pays attention to the hinting? | 05:14 |

| doko | mjg59: that looks like the Nimbus font. is subpixel rendering turned on? | 05:18 |
| mjg59 | doko: Yes, subpixel rendering is turned on | 05:18 |
| Diziet | Hrm, it seems to be caching it somehow. Or maybe my X server doesn't have the right stuff in it. | 05:18 |
| mjg59 | It's a laptop | 05:18 |
| dholbach | Mithrandir: ok, I think it's important enough, but it's your call. | 05:18 |
| infinity | doko: Yeah, my default proportional font in firefox is "Serif", which is "DejaVu Serif", apparently. And hideous, for whatever reason. | 05:18 |
| ogra | thats definately nimbus | 05:18 |
| Mithrandir | dholbach: do you have any other small tweaks like this you need/want to get in, then please tell me now. | 05:18 |
| mjg59 | doko: Nimbus appears to be the wrong choice here, since it deals with sub-pixel rendering really badly | 05:19 |
| dholbach | Mithrandir: not for the moment, no. | 05:19 |
| ogra | it doesnt at all | 05:19 |
| ogra | its a type1 font | 05:19 |
| mjg59 | Whatever sans-serif I had before that worked much better | 05:19 |
| infinity | doko: Hrm, but it's clearly NOT DejaVu, since if I tell firefox to use that explicitely, it doesn't look like ass. | 05:19 |

| pitti | Mithrandir: ppc/live works, espresso still b0rked for me (will do bug fiddling for that) | 05:19 |
| doko | mjg59: the old problem, we only have one config system, but want a) a good font on the display, b) a correct metric font for pDF's and printing | 05:20 |
| mjg59 | doko: Sure, but unfortunately making webpages look offensive is going to piss off even more people than incorrect PDFs | 05:20 |
| infinity | Argh. Switching firefox from "serif" to "dejavu" and back to "serif" makes it start picking DejaVu instead of whatever hideous thing it was before, so now I can't reproduce the bug. Awesome. | 05:21 |
| HiddenWolf | mjg59: incorrect pdfs are a problem, ugly printing is a sin. | 05:21 |

| mdz | mvo: perhaps it could be fixed in espresso rather than in apt? | 05:22 |
| Gloubiboulga | infinity, janimo: works fine :) | 05:22 |
| janimo | \o/ | 05:22 |
| infinity | Spiffy. | 05:22 |
| mdz | mvo: before doing the removal, it could put up a new progress message | 05:22 |

| Gloubiboulga | janimo: not tested yet, and I can't really test it now :/ | 05:22 |
| infinity | janimo: Shall I let you tidy up your seeds a bit before we try a second run at generating images? | 05:22 |
| mdz | doko: so what are we doing about this for beta? | 05:22 |
| Diziet | doko: OK, I now see (trying to reproduce your problem) an apparently-squashed display, where the letters are too close together for their size. Is that what you mean ? | 05:23 |
| infinity | janimo: I need to sleep sometime anyway. :) | 05:23 |
| doko | mjg59: depends on your priorities | 05:23 |
| doko | Diziet: yes | 05:23 |
| mjg59 | doko: I think more of our users use web browsers than printers | 05:23 |
| doko | and partly overlapping | 05:23 |
| janimo | infinity: sure sleep tight, although I am not sure if I change much in the seeds for beta | 05:23 |

| infinity | janimo: Yeah, if you don't change much, you'll just have tiny CDs, nothing wrong with that. Faster downloads for a smaller system seems nice. | 05:24 |
| janimo | right | 05:24 |
| doko | Diziet, mdz: in the case of the PDF we want to have Nimbus a replacement for Adobe, for the browser we do not want that. fontconfig cannot differentiate between these requests AFAIK, so we have to make a decision about our priorities, or configure an application to go with our preferred choice. | 05:26 |
| Diziet | mjg59: Don't worry, I'm going to make it so firefox gets to use a different font. | 05:26 |
| mjg59 | Diziet: Ok, excellent | 05:26 |
| Diziet | At least, if I can get it to work that is :-). | 05:26 |
| infinity | Diziet: Erm, but firefox isn't exactly the only thing in the distribution that displays HTML... | 05:26 |
| infinity | Diziet: Trying to fudge it in firefox preferences seems suboptimal. | 05:27 |
| mjg59 | Oh, yes | 05:27 |
| mjg59 | It would have to be at the gecko level, not the firefox level | 05:27 |
| Robot101 | isn't the real problem that fontconfig tries to natively hint fonts which have crap hinting and should be autohinted? | 05:27 |
| mvo | mdz: I opened bug #40017 about the remove progress problem | 05:28 |

| mdz | it's about one thousand times more visible than printing | 05:28 |
| Diziet | infinity,mjg59: Indeed. I'm trying to make gecko pass something to fontconfig that fonts.conf could key on. | 05:28 |
| infinity | Diziet: If you come up with such a hack, be sure to pass it on to me for Thunderbird, since it doesn't use firefox's gecko (yet). | 05:29 |
| === ogra wonders why we have that nimbus vs bitstream/djvu discussion every release with the same result | ||
| infinity | I don't suspect it will for dapper, since trying to make it do so introduces too many frightening other issues. | 05:30 |
| doko | mdz: ok, so let's look, if Diziet can come up with something for the browser, I'm preparing a patch to revert that fonctconfig change | 05:30 |
| Diziet | infinity: OK. | 05:30 |
| mdz | doko: sounds good | 05:30 |
| infinity | doko: By "revert" you mean "make it like it was in breezy", or "make it one of the crazy things we've had over the last few months"? | 05:30 |
| mdz | I've uploaded the espresso fix | 05:31 |
| Diziet | `Revert' means `toggle it again' ? :-) | 05:31 |
| mdz | the third remaining blocker is the splash-down / eject prompt breakage on the live CD | 05:31 |
| Diziet | Both configurations are IMO pretty damn poor. | 05:31 |
| mdz | infinity is ostensibly going to sleep; who else can work on that? | 05:31 |
| ogra | Diziet, the breezy one worked very good | 05:31 |
| infinity | mdz: That was going to be "as soon as I've slept", unless someone else is less patient and wants to do it right now. | 05:31 |
| doko | infinity: "the crazy things", whatever you mean | 05:31 |
| Diziet | ogra: Except for printing and pdf viewing. | 05:31 |
| ogra | not here | 05:32 |
| mdz | infinity: what's your plan? | 05:32 |
| Diziet | Err, have you tried doko's testcase ? | 05:32 |
| ogra | i can print fine on my breezy box and view pdf's just fine | 05:32 |
| ogra | s/test/corner/ ?? | 05:32 |
| doko | Diziet: if you have postscript printer with built in fonts, it's not a problem | 05:32 |
| infinity | mdz: I wanted to sleep on it before I decided which was less crackful. I can either make usplash trap the signals from init and not die (crack), or patch init to skip killing usplash (slightly less crack). | 05:33 |
| giftnudel | who has a post script printer? Most people don't. | 05:33 |
| infinity | mdz: The latter is probably less surprising the people who try to kill usplash by hand. | 05:33 |
| doko | ogra: poppler in breezy didn't look at fontconfig | 05:33 |
| mdz | infinity: I'm not terribly concerned about it getting killed at this point, more about the lack of prompting | 05:33 |
| ogra | doko, i never had *any* problems with inkjet printers and fonts | 05:33 |
| mdz | infinity: if it gets killed, goes to a text console, and casper prompts there, that's good for beta | 05:34 |
| infinity | mdz: The lack of prompting is because it's getting killed, afaik. | 05:34 |
| ogra | no matter what font i use | 05:34 |
| mdz | the problem seems to be that it's not cleaning up when it's killed | 05:34 |
| infinity | mdz: It dies, but the framebuffer is still painted. | 05:34 |
| mdz | infinity: it doesn't switch VTs | 05:34 |
| doko | Diziet: does gs use the Nimbus fonts as "builtin fonts", or does it consult fontconfig? | 05:34 |
| mdz | presumably init is still talking to a text console somewhere? | 05:34 |
| doko | mdz: would you consider ttf-dejavu-2.5 for the beta? | 05:35 |
| infinity | mdz: That's a reasonable theory. It's actually talking to the console we're on (that's why hitting <enter> blindly works) | 05:35 |
| mdz | if SIGTERM would arrange for cleanup() to be called, I think that would do | 05:35 |
| mdz | doko: why? | 05:36 |
| mdz | does it fix a blocker? | 05:36 |
| mdz | infinity: in fact, I think an empty SIGTERM handler should do the trick, since it'll result in an error return from select(2), which breaks the event loop | 05:37 |
| mdz | I'll test | 05:37 |
| doko | a) nice dots for seb128, b) less aggressive kerning c) working ligatures in the browser (I did learn, that browsers are important), test page at http://www.gnome.org/~jamesh/firefox-ligature.html | 05:38 |

| mdz | infinity: switching over to vt8 results in a usable text-mode prompt | 05:38 |
| infinity | mdz: I'd prefer a nice graphical prompting to hit <enter>, but if you'd prefer that after beta, your fix sounds correct *anyway*. | 05:38 |
| doko | ok | 05:39 |
| seb128 | doko: http://www.gnome.org/~jamesh/firefox-ligature.html works fine with epiphany atm | 05:39 |
| mdz | infinity: the nice graphical prompt is definitely pre-freeze sort of territory; I had no idea this was still broken | 05:39 |
| infinity | mdz: That's a neat trick, since usplash is running on vc8 to start with. | 05:39 |
| Mithrandir | dholbach: actually, I'm fine with that libgnome fix. We won't wait for it, though, so whether it makes it in or not is a tad undecided. | 05:40 |

| fabbione | is that lvm2 or udev that needs fixing? | 06:20 |
| mdz | infinity: we're completely silly; obviously we can't fix this with a signal handler because sendsigs follows up with SIGKILL for an encore | 06:20 |
| siretart | fabbione: AFAIU it is a bug in lvm2, which I currently workaround in udev | 06:20 |
| infinity | mdz: Right, so having init special-case processes named "usplash" was the second (and seemingly "saner") option, anyway. | 06:22 |
| infinity | mdz: Ideally, a whitelist of sorts, so it's not usplash-specific in the longrun, but for now, I'm happy to hardcode the one string. | 06:22 |

| wasabi | One of these days I should try espresso. | 06:25 |
| mdz | infinity: a more beta-friendly option would be to chvt about and end up with a text prompt | 06:25 |
| wasabi | It just copy the livecd contents over then do package configuration? | 06:25 |
| Keybuk | fabbione: heh. I learned in school | 06:26 |
| Keybuk | they spent weeks teaching us; the basic method is to be given an A4 sheet of paper full of text for just a few seconds, then answer questions based on it | 06:26 |
| infinity | mdz: That would probably fit easiest in casper, then, right before it does the text prompting for rebooting. | 06:27 |
| Keybuk | you get better each time, until you can read enough of the entire thing to answer any question in only a couple of seconds | 06:27 |
| mdz | infinity: yeah, is vt8 hardcoded? | 06:27 |
| mdz | infinity: if so; chvt 1; chvt 8 should do the trick just fine | 06:27 |
| infinity | mdz: Yes, "usplash -c" goes to vc8 | 06:27 |
| Keybuk | it's also damned handy for reading people's screens before they flip vts | 06:27 |

| siretart | Keybuk: so you think there is a race in udev somewhere? note that the bug isn't 100% reliable | 06:27 |
| Keybuk | fabbione: which one? there were about 100 of them | 06:28 |
| fabbione | Keybuk: btw, i didn't claim it is a udev bug, but what i can see that a udev change triggered it.. | 06:28 |
| Keybuk | siretart: I don't think there's a udev bug | 06:29 |
| fabbione | Keybuk: i was teasing your reading skills :) | 06:29 |
| Keybuk | it looked to me like lvm and udev were trying to create the same device at the same time, no? | 06:29 |

| Keybuk | fabbione: we haven't changed udev in ages | 06:29 |

| fabbione | Keybuk: well i did never test lvm snapshotting either and we got a bug report... | 06:30 |
| fabbione | i am only digging into it | 06:30 |
| fabbione | is there any reason for udev to stick its nose in /dev/mapper? | 06:30 |
| Keybuk | nope | 06:30 |
| Keybuk | other than when I wrote the rules, I didn't know whether or not udev was supposed to manage those | 06:31 |

| siretart | fabbione: testing something nearly useful, you might be interested in this one: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SbuildLVMHowto :) | 06:31 |
| Keybuk | it was easier to make udev manage them, and stop if it it broke | 06:31 |
| Keybuk | than it was to make udev not manage then, and put the rules back | 06:31 |
| fabbione | Keybuk: i see... | 06:31 |
| Keybuk | it hadn't broken until now :) | 06:31 |
| fabbione | Keybuk: well it's a strange case.. i am not blaming anybody for it :) | 06:32 |
| fabbione | the only reason why i don't use snapshot is because it's not supported in clustered mode | 06:32 |
| Keybuk | should udev just not create /dev/dm/[0-9] * | 06:32 |
| Keybuk | and still create /dev/mapper/control ? | 06:32 |
| Keybuk | or should it create neither | 06:32 |
| fabbione | one sec... | 06:33 |
| Keybuk | siretart: drop the NAME="dm/%n", bit from your rule and see if that still works | 06:34 |
| fabbione | Keybuk: /dev/mapper/control is created also by the lvm init script | 06:34 |
| fabbione | but before we do any change we should make sure that "fixing" the udev rule doesn't break / on lvm | 06:34 |
| Keybuk | so how does that work in the initramfs? :) | 06:35 |
| fabbione | because i don't remember how lvm is managed in initramfs | 06:35 |
| fabbione | yeah we were getting to the same conclusion | 06:35 |
| Keybuk | in fact, does /dev/dm/* get created by anything _other_ than udev in the initramfs? | 06:35 |
| Keybuk | siretart: after you've changed that rule, update-initramfs -u and see if you can still boot <g> | 06:35 |
| fabbione | Keybuk: i can test it tomorrow. | 06:35 |
| siretart | Keybuk: so the line should look like this? `KERNEL=="dm-[0-9] *"` | 06:35 |
| fabbione | it's not something we need fixed for Beta | 06:35 |
| Keybuk | siretart: KERNEL=="dm-[0-9] *", OPTIONS+="ignore_device" | 06:35 |
| siretart | ok | 06:35 |
| infinity | Mithrandir: Okay, looks like the -x11 and -flite stuff for brltty is extra drivers/plugins, and drags in no universe deps, so in the interest of sanity, I'll send them to main for now, and we can deal with it later. | 06:36 |
| Mithrandir | infinity: ok | 06:36 |
| siretart | Keybuk: I can still create snapshots with that rule | 06:36 |
| === infinity prepares uploads for the two packages affected by the SONAME bump. | ||
| wasabi | Zzzzz | 06:37 |
| siretart | Keybuk: but I can't reboot the system right now, I'm not at home currently. I can test this in a few hours when I get home | 06:37 |
| fabbione | Keybuk: the lvm hook is called in local-top (i assume before mount /) and that can probably be fixed easily.. but let me test before we speculate for hours :) | 06:37 |
| Keybuk | siretart: ok, let the bug know how it goes then | 06:37 |

| soumyadip | incidentally, has anyone here got scim to work with OO2 ? | 07:16 |
| mdz | hmm, tricky | 07:16 |
| mdz | during startup, when usplash is killed, we want it to switch back to the original vt when it started | 07:16 |
| mdz | during shutdown, we want it to stay on the same vt, because that's where the console i/o is | 07:16 |
| soumyadip | well I got it to work on a friend's lappy, but unfortunately, I don't have access to that lappy right now, to be able to replicate the steps | 07:17 |
| infinity | mdz: (Yes, I'm still not asleep, argh)... The solution to that (which solves another bug Mithrandir has in his initramfs stuff) seems to be to stop having it switch VCs in the first place, and just run it on VC1. | 07:19 |
| Diziet | doko: What I mean is that if I invent an upload it'll be ubuntu10 so that there's only one ubuntu9 floating about - yours. | 07:20 |
| infinity | mdz: In a short discussion between me, Mithrandir, and mjg59, this seemed to be a sane and rational thing, and we couldn't really come up with a great argument to keep it on vc8, as it is now. | 07:20 |
| mdz | infinity: not very beta-friendly, unfortunately | 07:20 |
| infinity | mdz: No, not terribly. | 07:21 |
| mdz | infinity: it looks to me like by the time usplash gets killed, vt switching no longer works | 07:21 |
| mdz | neither by keyboard or by ioctl | 07:21 |
| mdz | I don't know why | 07:21 |
| mdz | infinity: can you think of another clever way to get the text restored? | 07:21 |
| mdz | maybe switch fb modes or something? | 07:22 |
| infinity | Not off the top of my head, but I've not dug deep into the scary that is bogl. | 07:22 |
| mdz | the test cycle for this sucks | 07:22 |

| === eduard [n=edward@host86-135-136-76.range86-135.btcentralplus.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| mdz | I don't even understand why switching VTs restores the text | 07:23 |
| infinity | Because the kernel is redrawing what lives on that VC. | 07:23 |
| mdz | why does the text live on it, and not the graphics? | 07:24 |
| infinity | bogl doesn't write to any particular virtual console, it just write to "the framebuffer". This can be evidenced it you daemonise it, and watch it keep blindly (over)writing after gdm loads. (hint: don't do that) | 07:24 |
| infinity | So, switching to another VC makes the kernel write that VC's contents to the framebuffer, then swiching again does the same thing. | 07:24 |
| infinity | The VC's contents is the text, not usplash. | 07:25 |
| mdz | so if usplash is running, and I switch to vt1 and back to vt8, it will clobber usplash? | 07:26 |
| infinity | Well, only because bogl detects VC switches and kills itself. | 07:26 |
| infinity | If it didn't do that, it would keep writing to your framebuffer, regardless of which VC you were on. | 07:27 |
| infinity | If usplash dies (or kills itself), then yes, any VC switch will redraw the framebuffer with that VC's contents, and the usplash image goes bye-bye. | 07:27 |
| mdz | there must be some other way to tell the kernel to redraw the screen | 07:28 |
| infinity | Basically, you have to sperate the framebuffer (writing to video RAM) from the virtual console (kernel text I/O, which can print to many outputs, serial, framebuffer, etc), and it makes more sense in your mind. | 07:28 |
| infinity | And yeah, there surely are other ways to tell the kernel you'd love the framebuffer to be repainted with the current VC, but damned if I can think of one off the top of my head. | 07:29 |

| infinity | lemsx1: At any rate, I'm far too zonked to think much about it, but if you happen to track down anything that's sensible enough to make a bug report of it, I'll be happy to look at it.

| Kamion | mdz: thanks for the gnome-session-save fix; do you have a bzr branch I can merge, or shall I do it by hand? | 10:05 |
| === Kamion pulls from Riddell in preparation | ||
| ogra | Kamion, wow, cool, i'd have expected to have to touch at least the artwork | 10:05 |
| Kamion | ogra: I don't expect so; I've made an effort not to talk about Ubuntu | 10:05 |
| ogra | thats really great :) | 10:05 |
| Kamion | ogra: at worst you might theoretically want a different icon, but it's not particularly Ubuntu-ish as distinct from Ubuntu derivatives | 10:06 |
| Kamion | what's the CD status? any cdimage tweaks needed? | 10:06 |
| ogra | i havent tried install yet | 10:06 |
| ogra | live was fine so far apart from the known breakage | 10:07 |
| Kamion | hmm, I see there are some cowboyed diffs on cdimage at least | 10:07 |

| Kamion | mdz: thanks, that would be good | 10:10 |
| mdz | Kamion: we're faced with a bit of a difficult choice at this point | 10:10 |
| mdz | Kamion: mailed | 10:11 |

| === licio [n=licio@ubuntu/member/licio] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| mdz | Kamion: anyway, so of our 3 blockers, one is fixed (the patch I just mailed) and two are worked around (usplash and fontconfig) | 10:12 |
| mdz | Kamion: I can live with the fontconfig workaround, but I'm torn about usplash | 10:12 |
| mdz | I see at least 3 options there | 10:13 |
| mdz | 1) release with the workaround (drops back to text mode at sendsigs), 2) revert the workaround and let usplash stay on the screen, frozen, at sendsigs, and change casper not to prompt about removing the CD, or 3) throw in my works-for-me solution which makes splash-down work properly (touches sysvinit, usplash and casper) | 10:14 |
| mdz | 1) gives us a cosmetic problem (though a glaring one that is likely to be bandied about in reviews), 2) gives us a usability problem, 3) takes a risk | 10:16 |
| Kamion | ugh, hmm | 10:16 |
| ogra | but we have still plenty of time if it needs fixage | 10:16 |
| ogra | i'd go with 3 | 10:16 |
| Kamion | I wonder how much reviews will actually bandy about that cosmetic problem; it's only on shutdown of the live CD, and is similar to the text on startup | 10:16 |
| mdz | no, it's on shutdown of the installed system as well | 10:17 |
| mdz | or else I'd agree with you | 10:17 |
| Kamion | jordi: man page source may not be UTF-8, except for some CJK cases that are handled specially; you have to recode to ISO-8859-1 | 10:17 |
| mdz | I suppose 4) might be to adapt the workaround to behave differently on the live CD vs. the installed system | 10:18 |
| mdz | would involve usplash growing a test for whether it's running under casper | 10:19 |
| Kamion | mdz: just to clarify, the espresso "Install System Permanently" -> "Install" change is for final, not beta, right? | 10:19 |
| mdz | Kamion: yes | 10:19 |
| mdz | no point in breaking all of the translations for beta | 10:19 |
| mdz | Kamion: the concern is only that the CD covers match the desktop, and the CD cover decision had to be made | 10:20 |
| Kamion | I don't think there are any translations of that string | 10:20 |
| Kamion | the desktop file is as yet untranslated | 10:20 |
| Kamion | and the string change in the window title was very recent | 10:20 |
| mdz | there are translations in the debian/po po files | 10:21 |
| mdz | I wasn't sure whether those ended up in the mo file or no | 10:21 |
| mdz | not | 10:21 |
| Kamion | I think there's a better way to do the SUDO_UID thing FWIW (see poke_gnome_screensaver), but not worth rocking that boat for beta | 10:21 |
| Kamion | hmm, you're right, I may be dense | 10:22 |
| mdz | Kamion: it's actually $HOME which seems to matter; sudo -H was just the most expedient solution | 10:22 |
| mdz | since it probably ought to run under the live cd user anyway | 10:22 |
| Kamion | oh, no, if you look closely they're all fuzzy translations | 10:22 |
| Kamion | just autogenerated crap | 10:22 |
| mdz | if there are no translations, and we need to wait anyway, we might as well make the change | 10:22 |
| Kamion | ok, I'll sort out merge mechanics | 10:23 |
| Kamion | you still want the CD label change done, right? | 10:23 |
| mdz | yes, please | 10:23 |
| Mithrandir | ogra: I didn't think I had, no. | 10:24 |
| ogra | Mithrandir, ? you had what ? | 10:25 |
| Mithrandir | ogra: built another edubuntu livefs | 10:25 |
| mdz | ogra: why is wpasupplicant in standard in edubuntu, but in minimal in ubuntu | 10:26 |
| ogra | hmm, but there was a 18.1 from ~14:30 UTC, so probably infinity has | 10:26 |
| ogra | mdz, no idea, infinity made the merge i'll look into it ... | 10:26 |
| Kamion | it was only shunted to minimal this morning | 10:26 |
| Kamion | because it was waiting on an LP fix that happened last night | 10:26 |
| mdz | Kamion: yes, but I asked ogra to do a merge less than an hour ago | 10:26 |
| ogra | ah, so the merge wasnt recent damned | 10:27 |
| Kamion | ah | 10:27 |
| mdz | I am starving, what's open late near south ken? | 10:27 |
| ogra | i just saw infinitys NM related merge and thought it was ready ... | 10:27 |
| fabbione | mdz: are you at kk or the other hotel? | 10:28 |
| ogra | mdz, btw, does you being in london mean we'll see you in wiesbaden ? | 10:28 |

| fabbione | zyga: my bank account is... | 10:34 |
| zyga | me and my fiance are getting married soon and we are looking for a nice place to our honeymoon in july | 10:34 |
| dholbach | I'd love to know what everybody thinks about, when they try to remember when they heard that sentence before. :-p | 10:35 |
| zyga | 1) not too hot/expensive/far from E | 10:35 |
| zyga | EU | 10:35 |
| mdke | congratulations | 10:35 |
| zyga | 2) a nice place/country to go for one week | 10:35 |
| fabbione | zyga: south pole.. it's not too hot / it's expensive / it's far from EU | 10:36 |
| fabbione | and you can dance with penguins.. | 10:36 |

| fabbione | zyga: are you going in honeymoon with a dapper cd? | 10:38 |

| ogra | gah | 10:45 |
| Kamion | I mailed ubuntu-devel@ about it | 10:45 |
| mdke | it was posted to the mailing list, I seem to remember | 10:45 |
| Kamion | you can harmlessly merge it | 10:45 |
| ogra | i cant | 10:45 |
| ogra | it clashes with edubuntu-server | 10:46 |
| Kamion | oh, edubuntu has a server seed | 10:46 |
| Mithrandir | mdz: I believe the tool you're looking for wrt killing all but a few select processes is pkill. It'd need to be taught about pid matching, though. | 10:46 |
| Kamion | just resolve the conflicts back to the edubuntu version then | 10:46 |
| ogra | yes, i'm just trying to figure out why *all* my seeds have conflicts suddenly | 10:46 |
| Kamion | arguably the semantic clash is a bug in itself, and we should call one or the other something different | 10:46 |
| ogra | i was first ! | 10:47 |
| ogra | :) | 10:47 |
| ogra | (i really dont care :) ) | 10:47 |
| tseng | hm why does the new update icon make me think "reboot" | 10:47 |

| mdz | Kamion: is it possible to queue a CD build to run when the livefs bulid completes? | 10:55 |
| Kamion | not particularly easily, unfortunately | 10:56 |
| Kamion | it's a twisty maze of ssh | 10:56 |
| mdz | my livefs build script allowed for that | 10:56 |
| Kamion | send me it? | 10:56 |
| Kamion | I've already started the livefs build though, so too late for this time | 10:56 |
| mdz | sure, but it's likely not to be up-to-date with the latest machine names and who knows what else | 10:56 |

| jdong | Mithrandir: how would you recommend I do it, then? | 11:03 |

| jdong | I basically want to keep prying eyes off /var/log | 11:04 |
