| mjg59 | mdke: Yes | 12:41 |
| seb128 | Kamion: is that a standard way to fix that? | 12:41 |
| Kamion | well, those are non-overlapping | 12:41 |
| Kamion | seb128: I've never heard of this problem before | 12:41 |
| mjg59 | mdke: I'm not massively keen on the ease of discoverability, but it's fairly consistent | 12:41 |
| seb128 | right, they are not, maybe that's just cfdisk on crack | 12:41 |
| mdke | mjg59, are you happy with that? It seems to me that if I suspend my machine, it should be physically secure | 12:42 |
| Kamion | your fdisk results don't seem particularly broken to me | 12:42 |
| Kamion | try parted and see what it says | 12:42 |
| mdke | mjg59, plus, the function key should do what it says on the tin | 12:42 |
| mjg59 | mdke: If you're concerned about physical security, then you want the screensaver to lock your screen under all circumstances | 12:42 |
| mdke | mjg59, yes, I do. | 12:42 |
| mdke | but _especially_ in those cases | 12:42 |
| mjg59 | So in that case, the argument is over the default for that setting? | 12:43 |
| mdke | sure | 12:43 |
| seb128 | Kamion: looks fine, maybe the bios doesn't like hda7 being bootable (it used to be hda3) | 12:43 |
| mjg59 | Right | 12:43 |
| mjg59 | I think it's reasonable to bring that up | 12:43 |
| mdke | mjg59, because sometimes the screensaver kicks in while I'm at my computer, I'm happy for it not to be locked. But if I suspend, that's another matter | 12:43 |
| mjg59 | What was the default for xscreensaver? | 12:43 |
| seb128 | Kamion: should primary or extended partitions make a difference for that? | 12:43 |
| Kamion | seb128: there was that old grub-installer bug with bootable partitions that we never really sorted out | 12:43 |
| Kamion | seb128: it wasn't the same thing, but I seem to remember it bit your laptop that time too | 12:44 |
| mdke | mjg59, in breezy, it locks, at least when I suspend/use the function keys. not sure about when the screensaver kicks in normally | 12:44 |
| seb128 | yeah, I thought to it, that's why I look to the boot flag | 12:44 |
| seb128 | but that bug was "no partition is set as bootable" IIRC | 12:44 |
| Kamion | seb128: yeah, it was | 12:44 |
| Kamion | seb128: if you set the active partition back to hda3, does it work then? | 12:44 |
| mdke | mjg59, personally, I think there is a reasonable argument for distinguishing the two situations (screensaver/lockscreen+suspend). Dunno if that's technically possible or not though | 12:44 |
| seb128 | trying | 12:44 |
| ogra | mjg59, the default was always to not lock | 12:45 |
| mjg59 | mdke: It's technically possible, though not trivially | 12:45 |
| ogra | but the lock item from the panel always locks ... | 12:46 |
| mdke | the lock item from the panel works, but my function key doesn't | 12:46 |
| ogra | probably suspend/resume should do the same | 12:46 |
| seb128 | Kamion: that was it | 12:46 |
| mjg59 | In any case, it's a gnome-power-manager issue rather than an acpi-support one | 12:46 |
| Kamion | Riddell: new kubuntu/live images up for you | 12:46 |
| Kamion | seb128: ok, I officially dislike your laptop's BIOS :) | 12:46 |
| seb128 | Kamion: let's call that a bios bug? Or is a primary partition supposed to be used for that? | 12:46 |
| seb128 | Kamion: me too :p | 12:46 |
| mdke | mjg59, ok, you already reassigned the bug there. Can I reopen it? | 12:47 |
| mjg59 | mdke: Fancy bringing it up on ubuntu-devel? | 12:47 |
| mdke | mjg59, yes. Anything to do with gpm makes me excited | 12:47 |
| Kamion | seb128: I can see the argument that it ought to be a primary partition if possible; this is why partman's recipes make / or /boot (as applicable) active and primary | 12:47 |
| pitti | seb128: in ancient times there was a BIOS limitation that it could only boot from a cylinder < 1024 or sth. like that; could that be it? | 12:47 |
| mjg59 | Getting some impression of how people feel would be helpful | 12:47 |
| Kamion | pitti: I'm fairly sure this is different | 12:47 |
| seb128 | pitti: could be | 12:47 |

| Kamion | localechooser is supposed to set localechooser/supported-locales as you go forward from the language screen, and then the install script picks up that question and decides which language packs to keep from that | 01:16 |
| Kamion | pitti: if that's not too inconvenient, yes please; also run with ESPRESSO_DEBUG=1 set | 01:16 |
| pitti | Kamion: erm, a second; I did that installation without network, can this be the reason? | 01:16 |
| Kamion | I think I'll fix the password thing and then make debug mode the default until just before the release candidate | 01:16 |
| pitti | there is no German langpack on the live CD AFAIR | 01:17 |
| Kamion | pitti: it's not impossible, although it surprises me | 01:17 |
| pitti | so, nothing to copy | 01:17 |

| jcole | are there any plans to update to update dri/drm in ubuntu dapper? it's more than 2 years old | 01:22 |

| Kamion | pitti: right | 01:23 |
| jcole | err, remove one "to update" | 01:23 |
| pitti | Kamion: the former doesn't seem like a beta blocker to me, but the latter is a bit more serious IMHO | 01:23 |
| Kamion | ah, it wasn't a problem before because the language pack removal called locale-gen | 01:25 |
| pitti | right | 01:25 |
| pitti | sorry for that breakage :/ | 01:25 |
| Kamion | I could just copy the contents of /usr/lib/locale/, right? | 01:25 |
| pitti | yes, that will work fine | 01:26 |
| pitti | locale-gen does more or less that, create the stuff in that dir | 01:26 |
| pitti | Kamion: everything in there is usually too much, though (you'll end up with all locales present on the live CD, which will make these languages appear in the gdm languager chooser and such) | 01:27 |
| pitti | Kamion: so, copying /usr/lib/locale/<langcode>_* seems like the right thing to me | 01:27 |
| pitti | the installed langpacks will care for all additional language specific locales | 01:28 |
| Kamion | won't removing the languages remove those files though? | 01:29 |
| Kamion | so if I copy the whole lot before removing the language packs ... | 01:29 |
| pitti | true, that will happen | 01:29 |
| Kamion | just going for the simplest possible coe | 01:29 |
| Kamion | code | 01:29 |
| pitti | indeed | 01:29 |
| pitti | so, not having any locale at all was a result of not having any German language pack installed at any time, and the removal of the English ones | 01:30 |

| lifeless | whiprush: ah, because I have a fault with evms startup | 04:10 |
| infinity | Okay, if they're coming up with the wrong driver lettering, you get to file a bug on udev and/or the kernel, argue with BenC and Keybuk over whose bug it is (depending on if it's a driver bug, or a load order bug), and then get it resolved there. | 04:11 |
| whiprush | ok, after showing the Begin: ... stuff, it times out and goes to busybox | 04:11 |

| whiprush | infinity: understood. | 04:11 |
| whiprush | is there a way I can determine wether it's udev or the kernel? | 04:12 |
| whiprush | or do I just pick one? | 04:12 |
| lifeless | infinity: if evms_activate isn't ? | 04:12 |
| infinity | lifeless: Erm, what? | 04:13 |
| infinity | whiprush: Pick udev. Scott's spent a lot of time tearing apart device detection stuff, so he should be able to quickly divine if it's actually a kernel bug. | 04:13 |
| lifeless | my fault is that evms_activate isn't succesfully running in the initramfs. Once it times out, I just have to do 'evms_activate', then ctrl-D | 04:13 |
| infinity | whiprush: Or, you can assign it to both udev and linux-source-2.6.15, and let it shake out that way. | 04:13 |

| lifeless | is where I added my notes. | 04:15 |
| infinity | lifeless: Can you fiddle with evms's initramfs scripts in /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts and see if you can come up with something that works? | 04:15 |
| lifeless | infinity: if I wasn't trying furiously to get bzr ready for dapper too - sure. | 04:15 |
| infinity | Fair point. If only I had an evms setup. ;) | 04:15 |
| === infinity will have to create one and do some testing later. | ||
| lifeless | as it is, this is my server, so if I'm going to do 1001 reboots to debug something, I'd really much rather do it with someone that knows the initramfs stuff backwards paired with me | 04:16 |

| infinity | lifeless: Nope. I'm very vanilla on my dapper system. | 05:09 |
| shawn_home | hrm, im hoping NetworkManager has a CLI so if you *dont* have Xorg running, you can still, you know, start a network? :) | 05:15 |
| shawn_home | if not, we're turning our backs on CLI world | 05:15 |
| wasabi__ | I always wished NM would give up it's "only used for desktop machines or laptops" goal. | 05:15 |
| Kamion | well, we're not embracing network-manager for dapper anyway | 05:15 |
| wasabi__ | It has use for servers too. | 05:16 |
| Kamion | it's in main now, but not installed by default | 05:16 |
| wasabi__ | OS X and Windows don't have two ways to configure machines, one for servers and one for desktops;. | 05:16 |
| shawn_home | Im concerned everyone is rushing to the GUI craze while forgetting Linux/UNIX were founded on CLI tools | 05:16 |
| shawn_home | and if i cant start eth0 without X we have a *problem* | 05:17 |
| Kyral | start eth0 | 05:17 |
| Kyral | easy | 05:17 |
| Kyral | sudo ifconfig eth0 up && sudo dhclient eth0 | 05:18 |
| Kyral | game set match :D | 05:18 |
| shawn_home | ifconfig is dead, use iproute2 :) | 05:18 |
| Kyral | wazzat? | 05:18 |
| Kyral | and ifconfig has always worked for me :D | 05:18 |
| shawn_home | net-tools is so dead: http://linux-net.osdl.org/index.php/Iproute2 | 05:18 |
| shawn_home | "Most network configuration manuals still refer to ifconfig as network configuration tool, but that's wrong, because ifconfig is known to behave inadequately in modern network environment. Its usage should be deprecated" | 05:18 |
| shawn_home | net-tools (from which ifconfig comes from) is 'dead' | 05:19 |
| shawn_home | Edgy should switch away from the old userspace | 05:19 |
| shawn_home | ip addr add 1.2.3.4 dev eth0 | 05:20 |
| shawn_home | mind you, iproute2 doesn't display route info very nice as the route command does (though if people start hacking on iproute2 it could be done) | 05:21 |
| Kamion | iproute in general suffers from poor usability | 05:21 |
| shawn_home | true, its more 'ciscoish' like | 05:21 |
| Chipzz | dunnow if that even matters | 05:21 |
| shawn_home | or bsd like | 05:21 |
| Chipzz | but you're going to alienate *a lot* of users coming from other distro's (or other UNIX'es for that matter) | 05:22 |
| Kyral | One of my personal goals for Edgy is to introduce tools that will make lowlevel tweaking a lot easier | 05:22 |
| Kamion | also system administrators do not have infinite time to spend learning new tools; it's unlikely we'll drop sysadmin-brain-compatibility with Unix for a long time | 05:22 |
| Kyral | basically for us CLI junkies | 05:22 |
| Chipzz | even SGI has it, be it in /usr/etc :P | 05:23 |
| Chipzz | s/SGI/IRIX/ | 05:23 |
| Kamion | though I'd have no problem with moving more to iproute under the hood | 05:23 |
| infinity | Just because ifconfig sucks for complex setups is no reason to drop it anyway. It plays nicely with iproute2, so there's no issue having both installed. | 05:23 |
| shawn_home | heh | 05:24 |
| infinity | But I agree that ifupdown (or some whizzbang new setup people want to move to, whatever) should use iproute2 under the hood. | 05:24 |
| Chipzz | yeah | 05:24 |
| shawn_home | sure you can have both installed | 05:24 |
| Kyral | I really wanna see something for the easy management of initscripts | 05:24 |
| shawn_home | I am glad to see more userspace is now GNU the author of CrackLib has told me 3.0 is GPL now (the new author) | 05:24 |
| shawn_home | and it has a configure script! | 05:25 |
| Kyral | I mean I love the rc.conf in Arch where you list the Daemons you want starting. If you wanna stop one from starting you just remove it from the list | 05:25 |
| === Kamion idly notes that we've had iproute in our base system since warty | ||
| Kamion | and it's not had a new upstream version packaged since hoary | 05:25 |
| Chipzz | Kyral: you mean you find one giant config file actually *user-friendly*? | 05:25 |
| shawn_home | yeah i have it on my dapper snapshot | 05:25 |
| Kyral | Chipzz, it isn't a one gaint config file | 05:26 |
| shawn_home | but nobody is using it :) | 05:26 |
| Kyral | but its quite nice for the initial bootup | 05:26 |
| Chipzz | sure reminds me of *BSD | 05:26 |
| shawn_home | its there, but not used i dont think | 05:26 |
| Kamion | although that's actually a forgotten merge, apparently | 05:26 |
| Kyral | Chipzz, have you used Arch before? | 05:26 |
| LaserJock | how does Gentoo do init scripts? I always found it easy to use | 05:26 |
| Kamion | or, no, a merge that came in after UVF | 05:26 |
| Chipzz | Kyral: no, I don't care for source-based crap :P | 05:26 |
| Kyral | Chipzz, it isn't | 05:26 |
| shawn_home | we have to becareful though with initscripts, theres a historical standard we can't break overnight | 05:26 |
| shawn_home | think Vmware and other tools.. | 05:26 |
| shawn_home | non-free even | 05:27 |
| === ajmitch__ [n=ajmitch@port161-15.ubs.maxnet.co.nz] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Kyral | Chipzz, its Binary based, though it makes it VERY easy to rebuild from source | 05:27 |
| Chipzz | hrrrm ok | 05:27 |
| Chipzz | anyway I haven't | 05:27 |
| Kyral | One thing that currently miffs me about Ubuntu is how many unneeded services startup | 05:27 |
| shawn_home | like RAID on my laptop? :) | 05:28 |
| Kyral | I mean I don't have LVM, RAID, or Bluetooth, so why are they starting or even installed? | 05:28 |
| Chipzz | Kyral: evms and lvm for example? :) | 05:28 |
| shawn_home | heh | 05:28 |
| Kyral | Surely we can use the HW-Detection to make the decisions | 05:28 |
| shawn_home | we should make them all conditional | 05:28 |
| shawn_home | Kyral, depends how you do the early init bootup | 05:28 |
| Chipzz | Kyral: worse; wtf can't I remove them? | 05:28 |
| Chipzz | (ok you can remove bluetooth) | 05:28 |
| Kyral | or ppp | 05:28 |
| Kamion | no, we deliberately install that stuff unconditionally so that e.g. when you get a bluetooth phone you don't have to install extra stuff in order to use it straight away | 05:28 |
| shawn_home | I dont use the ubuntu kernel with dapper snapshot | 05:28 |
| Kyral | Kamion, but then at least make it easy to disable | 05:29 |
| LaserJock | it seems to me like it doesn't matter what the defaults are if we have a good method for turning them off (or on) | 05:29 |
| Kamion | similarly filesystem etc. support to ensure that switching to other filesystems is not unduly painful | 05:29 |
| Kamion | it was a conscious decision | 05:29 |
| shawn_home | Kamion: but a /etc/default/bluetooth-bluez config file with ENABLE= might be nice | 05:29 |
| Kamion | Kyral: update-rc.d | 05:29 |
| Kamion | shawn_home: sure, no objection to that | 05:29 |
| shawn_home | use what /etc/default was for :) | 05:29 |
| Kamion | send a patch | 05:29 |
| shawn_home | :) | 05:29 |
| Chipzz | Kamion: yes, but hardcoding dependencies in the linux-image debs is not the way to go IMHO | 05:29 |
| Kyral | Kamion, thats a PITA to use, have you need the manpage? | 05:29 |
| Kyral | s/seen/need | 05:29 |
| Kamion | Chipzz: what does that have to do with any of the above? | 05:29 |
| shawn_home | Kamion: i need to sync up first before I can do that, but yeah a patch can be done easily | 05:29 |
| Kamion | Kyral: many times | 05:29 |
| Kyral | Right now sysv-rc-conf is a better solution | 05:30 |
| Kamion | or bum, or whatever | 05:30 |
| Kamion | there are plenty of service management tools | 05:30 |
| shawn_home | the thing is Kbuntu starts up the kbluetooth service, and loads bluetooth kernel drivers (if found) | 05:30 |
| shawn_home | so, even if you turn it off during boot up, you still have to use it heh | 05:30 |
| Kyral | I dunno, maybe I'm spoiled by Arch's tweakablity | 05:30 |
| Chipzz | Kamion: I cant get rid of it unless I remove my kernel with it | 05:30 |
| Kamion | Chipzz: you can most certainly remove evms and lvm packages (including init scripts, etc.) without removing your kernel | 05:31 |
| shawn_home | Kamion: but dont use aptitude to do it, or it'll want to remove ubuntu-desktop +++ | 05:31 |
| shawn_home | ;) | 05:31 |
| Kyral | I mean...if I do a server install (like I normally do) maybe we should remove those | 05:31 |
| shawn_home | i dont know why everything is dependant on ubuntu-desktop mind you | 05:31 |
| Kyral | I mean, you assume that people pulling a server install know what they are doing | 05:31 |
| Kamion | shawn_home: if you don't want to take the default Ubuntu desktop, then removing ubuntu-desktop is correct | 05:32 |
| Chipzz | Kamion: I just discovered you can indeed remove lvm... but I don't think that is (or was?) the case for evms iirc | 05:32 |
| Kamion | there is nothing wrong with removing it | 05:32 |
| shawn_home | true, but it sometimes decides to remove more than I want | 05:32 |
| Kamion | Chipzz: I believe firmly that you're mistaken here | 05:32 |
| Kyral | apt-get install GNOME | 05:32 |
| Kyral | See, this is what Edgy is for, for us to try out radical changes :D | 05:32 |
| infinity | Chipzz: Removing evms works fine here. | 05:32 |
| infinity | Chipzz: Just removes ubuntu-standard (which is not a problem, if you didn't want our package selection in the first place) | 05:33 |
| shawn_home | Kyral, you can do apt-get install gnome (well aptitude install gnome) | 05:33 |
| LaserJock | Kyral: you know how to package, *hint* ;-) | 05:33 |
| shawn_home | meta packages | 05:33 |
| shawn_home | metagroup packages or whatever | 05:33 |
| Kyral | LaserJock, no shit :P | 05:33 |
| Chipzz | Kamion: maybe I'm mistaken, or maybe the situation was such with breezy... anyway, removing lvm as we speak ;) | 05:33 |
| Kyral | there is a "gnome" package | 05:33 |
| Kyral | just like in Debian | 05:33 |
| infinity | We seem to have a disconnect between "people who want their own package selection" and "people who want ours", and "people who want to have both ours and theirs at the same time, magically" | 05:33 |
| infinity | The last option can't ever work. | 05:33 |
| Kyral | I'm in the first group :D | 05:33 |
| shawn_home | I don't mind K/Ubuntu's selection, its some dependencies that make me scratch my head | 05:34 |
| Kamion | Chipzz: breezy's initramfs-tools had a dependency on lvm2, which may be what you're thinking of | 05:34 |
| Kyral | Or should I say "I wanna use Ubuntu's packages and Repos, but I wanna build it from the bottom up" | 05:34 |
| infinity | Kyral: And the first group is easy to satisfy. Remove stuff, watch our metapackages go away, and you're done. | 05:34 |

| Kamion | shawn_home: ubuntu-standard is removable in the same way -desktop is, if you don't like the selection | 05:35 |
| shawn_home | if those are just meta packages they won't remove the whole distro ? :) i've had it do that twice | 05:36 |
| shawn_home | it decided i couldn't remove x and said it needed to rip out 2GB or so =) | 05:36 |

| LaserJock | I haven't had that problem shawn_home | 05:36 |
| shawn_home | hmm, then thats a bug if I find that happening again :) | 05:36 |
| Chipzz | shawn_home: not sure if aptitude or synaptic does that, but apt-get doesn't | 05:36 |

| === ajmitch__ [n=ajmitch@port163-83.ubs.maxnet.co.nz] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Chipzz | hrrrm I did find a bug I think though | 05:38 |
| Chipzz | neither mdadm, nor lvm{2|common}, nor evms regenerates the initramfs's on removal | 05:38 |
| Chipzz | not sure which of those needs to do that | 05:39 |
| Kamion | sounds like cause to file bugs | 05:39 |
| Chipzz | but I recall at least one of those regenerating them on upgrade | 05:39 |
| Kamion | anything that does update-initramfs in its postinst should probably do so in its prerm/postrm instead | 05:39 |
| Kamion | s/instead/as well/ | 05:39 |

| Kamion | shawn_home: in the context of dapper, beta has a defined meaning which is not as vague as "during the development cycle" | 05:48 |
| Kamion | i.e. the release we're trying to prepare for tomorrow | 05:48 |
| Kamion | using this channel to coordinate | 05:48 |
| shawn_home | a real 'CD' cut basically | 05:48 |
| shawn_home | hmm, 279MB needed..i am behind | 05:50 |
| Kamion | sorry, I'm trying to be polite, but maybe the hints are too subtle; we need to use this channel for release coordination at the moment. Comments about release issues or CD image testing work are welcome, but I'd ask that other chat be taken elsewhere for the meantime. | 05:51 |
| shawn_home | what bugs are currently open for beta, perhaps I can use some to look at 'em? | 05:53 |
| Kamion | feel free to test whichever daily builds from cdimage.ubuntu.com take your fancy; the test matrix is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Current | 05:53 |
| shawn_home | would testing in vmware be ok (I dont really want to hose my ubuntu laptop) ? | 05:54 |

| Kamion | the wiki page has directions | 06:01 |
| shawn_home | ah there.. | 06:01 |
| shawn_home | is Kubuntu dapper going beta tomorrow as well, maybe I should test the kde bits since thats what I use natively | 06:03 |
| Kamion | everyone: please retest Ubuntu CD images, particularly the live CD which has been rebuilt recently to fix some espresso bugs | 06:03 |
| Kamion | other derivatives are pending | 06:04 |
| Kamion | infinity: ping | 06:04 |
| shawn_home | ok, ubuntu then is fine | 06:04 |

| shawn_home | ok, maybe getting the dvd torrent isn't good, there's nobody who has it yet ;) | 06:09 |
| infinity | Kamion: pong | 06:10 |
| Kamion | infinity: castilla and vivies don't want to build Ubuntu livefses for me, AFAICT | 06:10 |
| Kamion | stuck on a lock? | 06:10 |
| shawn_home | ok, i can start testing ubuntu dvd server install, in 1 hour 30 mins aprox | 06:11 |
| Kamion | thanks | 06:11 |
| infinity | Kamion: Possibly. Checking. | 06:11 |
| shawn_home | its downloading @ half a meg so i'll do that in vmware, I can test on physical hardware, but its 12am here, so im limited in time :( | 06:11 |
| infinity | Kamion: Try now. | 06:12 |
| Kamion | infinity: better, thanks - they appear to be going | 06:13 |

| CarlFK | shawn_home: is 'testing' just run the installer with the defaults? | 06:45 |
| shawn_home | there's two types; Short and long | 06:46 |
| Kamion | CarlK: search for partman-auto/automatically_partition; looks to me as if you need to preseed that | 06:48 |

| Kamion | nor do I particularly care; we'll release when it makes sense to do so | 07:02 |
| shawn_home | ok, then I can bring my laptop and do long test for DVD server | 07:02 |
| Kamion | 8 hours was a fairly wild estimate | 07:02 |
| shawn_home | just need to guide when testing has to be wrapped up by | 07:02 |
| Kamion | ASAP | 07:02 |
| shawn_home | well, I do have sleep or i'll be doing nothing :) | 07:03 |
| Kamion | I'm afraid I can't give you a deadline | 07:03 |
| Kamion | testing is valuable even after the beta release, though; it can be fed into bug reports | 07:03 |
| shawn_home | there is anticipation of a 2nd beta? | 07:04 |
| shawn_home | 50% | 07:04 |
| Kamion | http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseSchedule | 07:04 |
| shawn_home | UTC time...hmmm.... | 07:05 |
| shawn_home | ok, then my testing will be post beta release, since it wont make it in time UTC is already 5-6am over there | 07:06 |
| Kamion | the link was in answer to your question about a second beta, not your question about timezones | 07:07 |
| Kamion | the question about timezones is fairly meaningless since for releases like this the people on the critical path often tend to just stay up | 07:07 |

| infinity | y | 07:13 |
| shawn_home | it is beta only ;) | 07:13 |
| Kamion | infinity: as far as I can tell ... both in the cloop build | 07:14 |
| infinity | Well, isn't that special. | 07:14 |
| Kamion | so ENOMEM seems kinda plausible | 07:14 |
| infinity | ENOMEM seems unlikely, with the gobs of RAM in those machines. | 07:14 |
| infinity | 2GB on vivies, 3.5GB on castilla. | 07:14 |
| infinity | Anyhow, I'll do some tests by-hand, and let you knof it they behave. | 07:15 |
| Kamion | yeah, I'm out of time for ports really | 07:15 |
| infinity | Yeah, don't do ports. I can rerun daily-live for ports later if I get livefs images. | 07:15 |

| Kamion | so basically the CD builds that are left are ports/live (if hppa, sparc get fixed, otherwise maybe ia64 only), kubuntu/install/ports rebuild due to temporary ports.u.c breakage, and DVD builds (Ubuntu in progress) | 07:32 |
| Kamion | everything else should be golden and good to test, so please do | 07:32 |
| Kamion | the old Ubuntu DVD builds currently published should be fine for traditional installer tests, too; the new build only matters for espresso installs | 07:33 |
| shawn_home | old by what date? | 07:34 |

| Kamion | TheMuso: I'd like your opinion though, bearing in mind the risk | 10:12 |
| TheMuso | I'd say go for it. Just re-checking the processes on both my machines, I can also confirm the problem. AFAIK we only have one braille user who is on the ubuntu a11y list, and he is tech savvy, so he would be able to get around it if need be. I think he uses Debian anyway. | 10:13 |
| dholbach | I just applied the memleak patch from cvs and it looks good - but I'd rather like to make completely sure and not run brltty at all (for the time of the beta) - we can always investigate in udev / etc afterwards | 10:13 |
| TheMuso | So its fine by me. | 10:13 |

| dholbach | infinity: there are a few things that are strange: libgtk2.0-bin is installed after tangerine-icon-theme, but the postinst of tangerine-icon-theme (generated by dh_iconcache) checks its existence (gtk-update-icon-cache) beforehand, so it shouldn't be executed at all | 11:00 |
| pitti | Kamion, dholbach: just to make sure, 'CD installation, auto-resize' means 'use largest chunk of free space'? | 11:03 |
| infinity | dholbach: Err, no, it's unpacked WAY before, so the binary clearly exists. | 11:03 |
| infinity | dholbach: I'm guessing you actually need the postinst to run before it's useful? | 11:03 |
| infinity | dholbach: In which case, tangerine-icon-theme should depend on libgtk2.0-bin, so they get configured in the right order. | 11:03 |
| dholbach | infinity: you need the postinst to generate the icon theme cache, if the cache is not there, it looks up icons directly, which is fine | 11:04 |
| Kamion | pitti: no, "resize <partition> and use free space" | 11:05 |
| Kamion | pitti: that option is not always offered; it depends on your partition layout | 11:05 |
| dholbach | I didn't want icon themes / other packages with icons to depend on it, as the cache is only generated, if you have libgtk2.0-bin (not likely for the kde folks and they most likely don't need a gtk icon cache) | 11:05 |
| pitti | Kamion: ah, ok; well, then we miss an extra line for 'largest chunk of free space' in the test matrix? | 11:06 |
| Kamion | pitti: I suppose, but it's not a particularly interesting case once the others are taken into account | 11:06 |
| dholbach | Um.... "Filesystem could not be created." (I used amd64, live-cd, auto erase) (it had an LVM on there beforehand) | 11:06 |
| Kamion | because it's basically equivalent to erase but on a different subset of the disk | 11:06 |

| Mithrandir | pitti: my usb2 hard drive isn't automounted. | 11:07 |

| Mithrandir | (fresh amd64 install) | 11:07 |
| dholbach | infinity: that's a good idea, although I don't see yet, where it's generated or where it comes from. | 11:07 |
| infinity | dholbach: Or make gtk-update-icon-cache silent when the conffile is missing, if that expected. | 11:07 |

| Kamion | the publisher is running with brltty source | 11:08 |

| infinity | mdz: It only affects ports anyway, so it's hardly critical, just annoying when create_compressed_fs goes -ENOMEM trying to process a 7GB loopback that should have been 2GB. | 01:04 |
| mdz | infinity: getting bigger going from loop->cloop? that would be fairly insane | 01:04 |
| mdz | or the uncompressed filesystem is oversized? | 01:04 |

| Kamion | infinity: I'm running along behind you pushing stuff out to the mirror-private directories on releases | 01:33 |
| infinity | lifeless: It's been broken this long with exactly two people complaining about it, while I consider it a release-critical bug, I don't really see that as beta-critical. | 01:33 |
| lifeless | infinity: ok. | 01:33 |
| dholbach | Kamion: the bug with the picture was clearly a bad burn -it's fine now | 01:33 |

| Kamion | dholbach: ah, ok. a bit concerning but ... | 01:34 |

| pitti | oh, espresso doesn't copy /etc/modules... /me files a bug | 01:34 |
| infinity | lifeless: Agreed, and had I been yelled at about the bug two days ago, I'd agree with you, but I'm not going to hold up the whole show now for this one. :) | 01:34 |

| Kamion | dholbach: dvd/install will explode; dvd/live should be ok as far as I know so far | 01:35 |

| fabbione | lifeless: i have root on lvm and it works | 01:36 |
| infinity | lifeless: Care to make the note in the wiki, since you know exactly how it breaks? | 01:36 |
| fabbione | lifeless: oh evms | 01:36 |
| === infinity ponders conditional prereqs in initramfs-tools... | ||
| mdz | Kamion: copacetic | 01:36 |
| Kamion | (I think I have the debian-cd patch now that's necessary to fix DVDs, but it's large and invasive. They've been broken since the introduction of SimplifiedLiveCD.) | 01:36 |
| lifeless | infinity: why conditional ? | 01:37 |
| Mithrandir | pitti: that's by design. | 01:37 |
| infinity | Since we only need a PREREQ on udev if you are using udev... People could have monolithic kernels and evms installed.. | 01:37 |
| Keybuk | mdz: cromulent | 01:37 |
| Keybuk | infinity: why does evms need udev? that sounds new | 01:37 |
| Kamion | not often I have to look up a word | 01:37 |
| mdz | (and no one noticed because they're so damn big nobody downloads them except for releases) | 01:37 |
| infinity | lifeless: evms doesn't depend on udev (for the above stated reason), and I'd prefer not to complicate that. | 01:37 |
| Keybuk | I thought evms made its device nodes itself | 01:37 |
| lifeless | infinity: probe for dm in the kernel | 01:37 |
| lifeless | Keybuk: it needs device mapper | 01:37 |
| pitti | Mithrandir: why that? bug 40311 btw | 01:37 |
| Ubugtu | Malone bug 40311 in espresso "does not copy /etc/modules" [Normal,Unconfirmed] http://launchpad.net/bugs/40311 | 01:37 |
| Mithrandir | pitti: it copies the read-only file system. | 01:38 |
| pitti | Mithrandir: that breaks sound on ppc, and maybe some more things which rely on /etc/modules | 01:38 |
| Kamion | we do deliberately copy some other things | 01:38 |
| lifeless | Keybuk: this is the bug that we discussed on sunday | 01:38 |
| dholbach | can anybody in the german rosetta team fix the "wrong password" gksu string? somebody copied the 'Return' signs :) | 01:38 |
| Kamion | pitti: erm, what writes to /etc/modules at run-time to make sound on powerpc work? | 01:39 |
| pitti | dholbach: I can, do you have the URL handy? | 01:39 |
| pitti | Kamion: Mithrandir recently fixed that in casper | 01:39 |
| pitti | Kamion: it's more or less what the normal installer does as well | 01:39 |
| Kamion | oh, then it should be a casper espresso hook | 01:39 |
| Keybuk | infinity: it's a shame initramfs gets into a panic if a PREREQ is missing | 01:40 |
| Keybuk | life would be easier if you could PREREQ udev to mean "need that IF it's installed" | 01:40 |
| dholbach | pitti: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/dapper/+source/gksu/+pots/gksu/de/+translate?offset=20 | 01:41 |
| dholbach | pitti: or hang on... I can make "suggestions" as well | 01:41 |
| infinity | Keybuk: That's what I meant by conditional. Scan the directory we're in, if it's there, make sure it runs first, if it's not, ignore the PREREQ. | 01:41 |
| infinity | Keybuk: I think that may be a sane way to go. | 01:42 |
| infinity | Keybuk: Given that a *hard* prereq should be satisfied with package dependencies, a *soft* prereq at runtime seems sane to me. I think. | 01:42 |
| infinity | Keybuk: That would allow for this sort of situation, where we *might* want udev, *if* you use it, but if *not*, hey that's cool too. | 01:43 |
| pitti | dholbach: whoa, they also removed the markup and everything | 01:44 |
| dholbach | narf... | 01:45 |

| sivang | seb128: hmm, I think that due to hal lack of feature (seeing multi session CD volumes correctly) we get a mount bug in nautlis - when you double click it , it does get mounted with pmount, but there is not indication of this in the GUI. then you retry due to getting no GUI feedback, and get multiple error messages from remounting an already mounted volume... | 01:46 |
| dholbach | pitti: i removed the 'return signs' already | 01:46 |
| dholbach | or at least suggested it | 01:46 |
| seb128 | sivang: there is some bug open about it, you can send a patch if you want | 01:47 |
| seb128 | I don't have "multi session CD" to play with and enough bug to work on at the moment | 01:48 |
| lifeless | infinity: can you read the known bugs bit on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperBeta and see if what I've said is sane ? | 01:48 |
| pitti | carlos: oh dear, can we please have an 'ack this suggestion' button in the Rosetta interface? | 01:48 |

| infinity | lifeless: Otherwise, looks fine. | 01:50 |
| lifeless | if you have evms and a dos volume this bug shouldn't happen | 01:50 |
| lifeless | its just the combination of evms + lvm -> needs dm -> falls over. | 01:51 |

| sivang | Kinnison: ah, well it worked fine on my new T43, only screwed IBM's rescue partition with their modified version of windows. | 02:47 |
| infinity | Sweet Jesus. I haven't booted a LiveCD on my girlfriend's amd64 machine in ages. | 02:47 |
| infinity | It's. Like. FAST now. | 02:47 |
| infinity | Mithrandir: Kudos. | 02:47 |
| Mithrandir | infinity: I'm hoping we can make it quicker for dapper+1, though. | 02:48 |
| Kamion | I agree with thom that legacy seems a bit harsh, given that espresso is not a replacement for everything d-i does | 02:48 |
| Mithrandir | infinity: especially on high-end machine. | 02:48 |
| infinity | Mithrandir: I assume it's known that I get crap resolution on amd64 still? | 02:49 |
| Kamion | (and can't really be without, well, turning into d-i) | 02:49 |
| infinity | (I thought xresprobe was supposed to be working there now) | 02:49 |
| Mithrandir | infinity: it's not xresprobe's fault, it's X. Presumably. Can you dump your xorg.conf somewhere? | 02:49 |
| Mithrandir | infinity: or just check if you have decent resolution lines in there. | 02:49 |
| Kamion | freeflying: you should recheck what Karl already wrote before asking him to do something he's already done (in #40305) ;-) | 02:50 |

| seb128 | mvo: k | 02:54 |
| infinity | Mithrandir: And works fine in the dapper install currently on her machine at lovely high resolutions and refresh rates. | 02:54 |

| infinity | Mithrandir: In the same directory. | 02:55 |
| infinity | Mithrandir: ddcprobe goes up to 1280x1024, which is still low, but higher than I got in my conf... | 02:56 |
| Mithrandir | infinity: what kind of monitor? | 02:56 |
| infinity | pitti: I don't use DVI, but I didn't say it worked on install (haven't reied a fresh install on this machine yet), just that it "works in her current install" | 02:56 |
| Mithrandir | infinity: it probably hates you because edid failed. | 02:56 |
| infinity | Mithrandir: Viewsonic P95f+, very PnP happy. | 02:57 |
| Mithrandir | pitti: my setup does edid just fine with DVI, I think it's your cable or monitor that doesn't like it. | 02:57 |
| Mithrandir | infinity: hmm, CRT, and unless it's utterly ancient it should do EDID just fine. (And since it's a 19", it's not that ancient) | 02:58 |
| Mithrandir | infinity: could I have your Xorg.log? | 02:58 |
| Mithrandir | infinity: and does it work correctly in 32 bit mode? | 02:59 |

| infinity | Mithrandir: the monitor? Of course. | 03:00 |
| Mithrandir | infinity: (rephrase) can you try with a 32 bit live cd? | 03:00 |
| infinity | Mithrandir: Oh. :) Yeah, just have to burn the ISO. | 03:00 |
| Mithrandir | infinity: I'm particularly interested if ddcprobe works in 32 bit mode, since that means there are still bugs there I need to fix. | 03:01 |

| Treenaks | Kyral: Uh... have you tried gstreamer 0.10? :) | 03:12 |
| Kyral | Treenaks, Yah the LibXineExtraCodecs + GStreamer .10 is awesome | 03:12 |
| Kyral | but some people like Xine :D | 03:12 |
| Kyral | And Linux is, and always has been, about choice | 03:13 |
| Kyral | you don't like foo, use bar | 03:13 |
| Treenaks | Kyral: sure, but I think we should promote gstreamer more than xine ;) | 03:13 |
| Kyral | Treenaks, *shrugs* | 03:14 |
| Kyral | I'm of the opinion to give them both love :D | 03:14 |
| Kyral | They are both awesome backends | 03:14 |
| Mithrandir | mdz: more derivatives, including xubuntu, more arches. | 03:14 |
| Kyral | Xine is tried and true, and until .10, superior to GStreamer in every respect | 03:14 |
| Kyral | the Ubuntulooks theme! | 03:14 |

| Kyral | 2.6.16! | 03:16 |
| Kyral | Or wait..thats Arch lol | 03:16 |
| Keybuk | under the hood, I guess removal of hotplug is a feature | 03:17 |
| Kyral | Are the newest NVidia drivers in Dapper (wouldn't know, been using Arch..) | 03:17 |
| Kamion | we'll have a section for hardware support, so udev work probably belongs there | 03:17 |
| Kyral | This is kinda not a part of Dapper itself | 03:17 |
| Mithrandir | under hardware support "i2o working out of the box" would be nice. | 03:17 |
| Kyral | but maybe list the people who have become Members, MOTU, and Core-Dev during the release cycle | 03:18 |
| pitti | Mithrandir, Kamion: ppc/oem install, the created user's $PATH is wrong (just /bin:/usr/bin); known bug already? | 03:18 |
| Mithrandir | pitti: what does /etc/environment look like? | 03:18 |
| Kyral | Because we all worked hard, so it would be kinda nice to see something like that, a little recognition :P | 03:19 |
| Kamion | Kyral: I think it's in danger of becoming an Oscar speech | 03:19 |
| Kyral | Like aside from new features in Dapper, hi light like new Teams formed, include something about the new version of LP | 03:20 |
| Kamion | getting people to read the whole thing will be hard enough :) | 03:20 |
| Kyral | Kamion, ain't that what Mark kinda wanted for Dapper...being all polished? | 03:20 |

| Keybuk | "The Live CD can use a USB memory stick to store changes you make, so that they aren't lost after a shutdown or reboot" -- something like that | 03:45 |
| Kamion | rcaskey_: yes, I still have a bug open about that | 03:45 |
| rcaskey_ | it entirely moritifies users | 03:46 |
| mdz | Kamion: I think the integrity check is more functional than sexy, and we're getting pretty long here | 03:46 |
| rcaskey_ | what's it filed against btw? | 03:46 |
| Kamion | rcaskey_: now is not really the time to advocate bug-fixing at me | 03:47 |
| Kamion | I have no idea offhand | 03:47 |
| Kamion | partman-ext3 maybe | 03:47 |
| rcaskey_ | Kamion: I know, was just curious, thanks | 03:47 |
| Kamion | I also have many more bugs that are much more urgent than that one | 03:47 |

| Kamion | fabbione,infinity: is ubuntu-server good to go? | 03:49 |
| Kamion | Riddell has already said aye for Kubuntu | 03:50 |
| ogra | Kamion, amd64 still pending, i386 live/install and ppc live/install are good | 03:50 |
| fabbione | Kamion: i can't test iso's... rsync keeps hanging on me.. according to netinstall is good | 03:50 |
| Keybuk | fabbione: I think Mithrandir is sucking all the bandwidth | 03:50 |
| fabbione | it's about 12 hours that i can't finish one ISO | 03:50 |
| ogra | amd64 install is running (had a bad media again, else i'd be done already :/) | 03:50 |
| Keybuk | either that, or there's a data centre problem | 03:50 |
| Mithrandir | Keybuk: I haven't rsynced for hours. | 03:50 |

| infinity | Kamion: I've been testing ubuntu ISOs... I can try to grab some server ones, but it won't be "quick". | 03:51 |
| Znarl | We have a huge amount of spare bandwidth in the DC. | 03:51 |
| === infinity glares at his livecd. | ||
| Keybuk | Znarl: hmm, I'm getting high ping times and almost no rsyncness | 03:51 |
| fabbione | Znarl: amount of bw is not relevant if the link is flapping | 03:51 |
| elmo | fabbione: I already asked you to provide evidence of that that we can give to our ISP | 03:52 |
| infinity | Is it normal for debconf to complain about "DbDriver "config": /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked ..." when I try to install stuff on the livecd? :/ | 03:52 |
| elmo | Keybuk: ditto for you, please | 03:52 |
| Keybuk | elmo: what kind of evidence would be most useful, I'll see what I can collect | 03:52 |
| Mithrandir | fabbione: I get 700KB/sec to the DC. | 03:52 |
| infinity | Kamion: ^^^ | 03:52 |
| fabbione | elmo: i know, but i can't see why it hangs, otherwise i would have done that. and i did not point my finger to the DC | 03:52 |
| Kamion | infinity: you aren't running espresso, are you? | 03:52 |
| Mithrandir | (which is my link speed) | 03:52 |
| Kamion | infinity: look for stray debconf processes. | 03:52 |
| elmo | Keybuk: mtr/traceroute type stuff, if you're seeing packet loss | 03:52 |
| infinity | Kamion: I cancelled an espresso install... | 03:52 |
| fabbione | Mithrandir: i am getting 650K now.. the problem is that it hangs half way | 03:52 |
| fabbione | Mithrandir: not the speed | 03:53 |
| Kamion | infinity: it may not have quite cancelled out properly | 03:53 |
| infinity | Kamion: Ahh, kbd-chooser is still running. Special. | 03:53 |
| Keybuk | I'm getting 60KB/s to the DC ... and 300KB/s to mirror-service | 03:53 |
| Kamion | mm, right | 03:53 |
| mdz | znarl: we'll address your bandwidth surplus shortly | 03:54 |
| Keybuk | now I'm only getting 30KB/s :p | 03:54 |
| infinity | Spiffy, even nvidia-glx works on the livecd. | 03:57 |
| Mithrandir | infinity: nice. Do you get the full resolution that way? | 03:57 |
| infinity | Mithrandir: I get the full res with either driver... If I dpkg-reconfigure and manually select the resolutions I want. They just don't get ddcprobed. <shrug> | 03:58 |
| infinity | Mithrandir: Maybe they never did and I'm on crack. It's something I can look at later. | 03:59 |
| Mithrandir | infinity: If you could remove the HorizSync and VertRefresh lines and see what you end up with, that'd be interesting. | 03:59 |
| pitti_ | yay, finished rsyncing the new images | 03:59 |
| infinity | Mithrandir: Well, I'll still only end up with the modes listed in xorg.conf, no? | 04:00 |
| Mithrandir | infinity: you would, but your Xorg.log might have more interesting faff. | 04:00 |
| infinity | Mithrandir: (better refresh rates, of course) | 04:00 |
| infinity | Actually... That's cute. | 04:01 |
| mdz | znarl: is elmo around? I'd like to confirm that the mirror links in the beta announcement are still appropriate | 04:01 |
| infinity | I'm only given the option of 85Hz, nothing lower. | 04:01 |
| infinity | ON her installed setup, I get a whole whack of options. | 04:01 |
| infinity | Something's definitely gone goofy with this lately. | 04:01 |
| ogra | infinity, i have the same prob here | 04:01 |
| ogra | (wrong resolution on all widescreen laptops) | 04:02 |
| Mithrandir | infinity: I blame xserver-xorg, then. | 04:02 |
| infinity | Yeah, I do too. I'll have to have a look at that in the coming weeks. | 04:02 |
| Kamion | mdz: so are we going for "text-mode" or "console"? | 04:02 |
| mdz | install to USB is only supported by d-i, right? | 04:02 |
| ogra | infinity, Kamion and i talked about it, would probably be a good idea to just attach a monitor db and fall back to that one if ddcprobe fails | 04:03 |
| Kamion | mdz: actually not certain, but I suspect so for now | 04:03 |
| ogra | but thats no dapper material, we'd need to collect db data first | 04:03 |
| mdz | Kamion: text-mode | 04:03 |
| Mithrandir | mdz: it should, in theory, work with espresso too, but I wouldn't advertise it. | 04:03 |

| Mithrandir | infinity: (to be fair, I've almost been bitten by it myself) | 04:05 |
| mh21 | pitti: thanks | 04:05 |
| ogra | Mithrandir, but the monitor db from xfree 3.x was pretty good ... having a fallback would still be good | 04:06 |
| infinity | mdz: Confirmed. | 04:06 |
| fabbione | mdz: yes we are | 04:06 |
| Mithrandir | ogra: you think it was good? I think it was terrible. | 04:06 |
| Beuno | ok ok, just wondering, saw the wiki and I had read differently somewhere else (tracking down somewhere else) | 04:06 |
| ogra | Mithrandir, better than being left with a broken resolution ... especially since we install the broken setup now | 04:06 |

| rcaskey_ | Seems kind of odd to mention components not installed by default (Network Manager) in a release announcement, even for a beta. | 04:08 |
| Kamion | mdz: have been pre-published for ages | 04:08 |
| pitti_ | okay, off to installing amd64 | 04:09 |
| rcaskey_ | Perhaps a "other packages newly available" section would be more appropriate | 04:09 |
| elmo | mdz: basically, I think they're fine - right now, they'll point to us, but I want them on there, so we can fall back to who they really are, once we've used our full BW | 04:09 |

The laptop has eth0 beeing a realtek 8139 card and an eth1 ipw2200, after boot ifconfig only lists eth0 and lo as up, running "sudo dhclient" configures eth1 correctly ... is that known? are you interested to debug it? :) | 05:11 |
| Keybuk | seb128: UTC=no and /usr on a different partition ? | 05:11 |

| Keybuk | seb128: what's in /var/run/network/ifstate ? | 05:13 |
| Keybuk | you said eth1 isn't UP ? | 05:13 |
| seb128 | broken with breezy (d-i and system not listing the cards the same way or something but you said that was not something to change before 5.10) | 05:13 |
| seb128 | ifconfig lists eth0 and lo only | 05:13 |

| seb128 | Keybuk: /etc/iftab has a "eth1 mac ..." | 05:20 |
| Keybuk | seb128: ok | 05:20 |
| Keybuk | seb128: then it sounds like the "netcfg only writes the interface it cared about" bug | 05:20 |
| Keybuk | and I guess espresso doesn't bother asking that question, and only ever configures eth0 | 05:20 |
| Keybuk | (random guess) | 05:20 |
| seb128 | the bug is before espresso | 05:20 |
| seb128 | liveCD has no network | 05:20 |
| carlos | and I found a package that has an specific .pot file for the .desktop translations, are we able to handle that with the patch to support .desktop files with language packs? | 05:20 |
| seb128 | so whatever is used to set the liveCD environment has the bug too | 05:21 |
| Keybuk | boot the live CD on it, and check that's /etc/network/interfaces | 05:21 |
| carlos | In fact, I think KDE packages use the same approach | 05:21 |
| pitti | carlos: do you have 15 minutes? then my workstation should have finished installing, and I can leave my flatmate's laptop with only a live system :) | 05:21 |
| seb128 | Keybuk: doing that now | 05:21 |

| Kamion | Keybuk: or something | 05:21 |
| Keybuk | it should default to dhcp | 05:21 |
| pitti | carlos: erm, yes, as long as the desktop file states the correct domain, that should be fine | 05:21 |
| carlos | pitti: and which domain is that one? ;-) | 05:22 |
| pitti | carlos: you mean a package doesn't use gettext in general, and we just added a pot to catch the .desktop translations? | 05:22 |
| carlos | well, no, I mean, a package uses gettext (at least that's what I think it does) but has another .pot file with the .desktop translations | 05:22 |
| pitti | carlos: which package do we talk about? I remember having changed some package to work like this, but I forgot which | 05:22 |
| carlos | instead of using the 'default' .pot file | 05:22 |

| Keybuk | thom: the wired chipset affects it too, sadly | 05:38 |
| Keybuk | and then you have the joy where n-m gets confused, and needs to be killed | 05:38 |
| Keybuk | or the fact n-m doesn't understand "stop! I want to configure a static IP!" etc. | 05:38 |
| ogra | seb128, ++ | 05:39 |
| thom | surely it only needs to be able to be mii'd? | 05:39 |
| dholbach | Keybuk: it doesn't work nicely for me on an x40 | 05:39 |
| dholbach | i have to run dhclient by hand every now and then too | 05:39 |
| Mithrandir | dholbach: it works nicely for me on an x40. | 05:39 |
| === dholbach cries | ||
| === dholbach takes his ball and plays elsewhere | ||
| Mithrandir | except when the driver decideds that my neighbour's AP is stronger than mine and I have to do sudo iwconfig eth1 essid s12 | 05:40 |
| Keybuk | seb128: I agree, iz casper bug :) | 05:40 |
| Keybuk | heh, I have the problem that my neighbour's AP has WPA | 05:40 |
| Keybuk | so every time I start n-m, it asks me for my keyring password | 05:40 |
| Keybuk | even though I've never, ever, EVER, told it to connect to that network | 05:40 |
| dholbach | Keybuk: same here | 05:41 |
| dholbach | can we rollback to 0.5? *run* :-p | 05:41 |
| Keybuk | and it gets very very upset if I don't give it the password | 05:41 |
| Keybuk | to "needs to be killed" degrees, usually | 05:41 |
| mjg59 | (Or we could, uh, try to fix the bugs) | 05:42 |
| thom | on an unrelated note, shouldn't the keyring password prompt grab input? | 05:42 |
| thom | a la gksu? | 05:42 |
| Keybuk | mjg59: there's just too many of them | 05:42 |
| Keybuk | I've been making sure they're registered upstream | 05:42 |
| seb128 | Mithrandir: do you think there is anyway we would do from casper before dapper to get networkin working on such config? | 05:42 |
| Kamion | janimo: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/dapper/beta/ FYI, when it finishes mirroring | 05:42 |
| Keybuk | it's entire design to me seems fatally flawed | 05:42 |

| Kamion | night all | 05:44 |
| Keybuk | stupid things; like using the cable sense to decide to rip down the wireless connection | 05:44 |
| Mithrandir | seb128: redo the scan of /sys and rewrite /e/n/i and then ifup -a ? | 05:44 |
| Keybuk | instead of finding out whether it can even get an IP from that cable first | 05:44 |
| seb128 | Mithrandir: something like that yeah | 05:44 |
| Mithrandir | seb128: fugly, but should work. | 05:45 |
| seb128 | Mithrandir: does it work if you only have an ipw2200 card atm? | 05:45 |
| Keybuk | Mithrandir: i'd "ifup $IFACE &" for each, rather than use -a | 05:45 |
| === j_ack [n=nico@p508D959C.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| seb128 | or is it broken because I've a wired card and a wireless then? | 05:45 |
| Keybuk | seb128: broken because you have a card that the initramfs has no driver for | 05:45 |
| seb128 | so anybody having an ipw2200 has no network with liveCD? | 05:45 |
| thom | Keybuk: downing wireless when you get a wired cable sense seems quite reasonable and sensible to me, in the vast majority of cases | 05:45 |
| dieman | heh, i just use wpa everywhere, so i dont notice the keyring issue :0 | 05:46 |
| dieman | :) | 05:46 |
| Keybuk | thom: the assumption that a cable indicates a network is wrong though | 05:46 |
| mjg59 | Keybuk: It's not a cable. It's a cable with link beat. | 05:46 |
| Keybuk | it should detect the cable, try and bring up that interface, and then only if it works, bring down the wireless | 05:46 |
| Mithrandir | seb128: my laptop doesn't do live cds very well. I could test with casper and grub from an usb2 disk, though. | 05:46 |

| thom | Keybuk: the assumption that plugging a cable with beat implies that you want a wired network is utterly reasonable | 05:46 |
| Keybuk | thom: I disagree | 05:46 |
| Mithrandir | seb128: but not now, since. dinner. | 05:46 |
| seb128 | right, no hurry | 05:47 |
| thom | yes, it should possibly be more robust, but that's a very sane design decision | 05:47 |
| seb128 | enjoy the dinner ;) | 05:47 |
| Lure | Keybuk: I agree - only if wired is working, wireless should be dropped | 05:47 |
| Riddell | mh21: looks like it successfully saves changes out to the file | 05:49 |

| dholbach | Mithrandir: enjoy it. | 05:52 |
| infinity | Keybuk: It's not rocket science to switch back to the wireless if the wired doesn't work, I don't see it as being a particularly bad default to attempt the switch. | 05:52 |
| Keybuk | infinity: but you don't need to drop the wireless to attempt the switch | 05:53 |
| Keybuk | it's a different interface | 05:53 |
| Keybuk | thus the bad design | 05:53 |
| Keybuk | you can bring eth0 up while eth1 is still up | 05:53 |
| Keybuk | and then just bring eth1 down if eth0 comes up ok | 05:53 |
| infinity | And then swap the gateways? | 05:54 |
| infinity | (you generally want to delete your default route before you go configuring an interface that will give you a new one) | 05:54 |
| Riddell | mh21: I think just leave it like that | 05:54 |
| Keybuk | infinity: the second the new default route comes up, you drop the old one | 05:54 |
| Keybuk | that's not hard | 05:54 |
| Keybuk | or you just make whatevers sets the new default route (dhclient) drop the old one first | 05:55 |
| Keybuk | you don't need to drop it *before* you start a potentially lengthy configuration process | 05:55 |
| ogra | doesnt that happen anyway ? | 05:55 |
| ogra | if i have a configured interface with route, the new one overrides the old one | 05:55 |
| Riddell | pitti: what's the status of cups 1.2 rc2? | 05:57 |
| ogra | iirc the kernel picks the first default route from the table, no ? | 05:57 |

| pitti | mdz: it's not an easy decision, I guess; I can send you the changelogs if you want, but I'm not sure whether you would have fun reading it | 06:00 |
| mdz | pitti: it's never fun, but I do it anyway because I think it's important ;-) | 06:00 |
| pitti | mdz: the feedback so far has been promising, though; a few problems were reported; I fixed some of them, and I strongly suspect that many of them already exist in our current version | 06:01 |
| pitti | mdz: alright, I'll extract the svn changelog and mail it to you | 06:01 |

| dholbach | bluefoxicy: ah | 06:05 |
| Keybuk | mjg59: and I've not even STARTED on other stupid behaviour | 06:05 |
| ogra | i'm a bit disappointed since i havent prepared an announcement now, but edubuntu isnt mentioned | 06:06 |
| Keybuk | like if I log off, and my mother logs on | 06:06 |
| Keybuk | IT'S DROPPED THE NETWORK CONNECTION!"(*$(!*$ | 06:06 |
| janimo | ogra, so what do you do now ;) ? | 06:06 |
| bluefoxicy | dholbach: how exactly does the ubuntu livecd creation process work these days anyway? | 06:06 |
| mjg59 | Keybuk: That's a more general issue than nm | 06:06 |
| ogra | janimo, preparing an announcement and send it tomorrow i think :( | 06:06 |
| Keybuk | mjg59: how is that a general issue? that's nm dropping the network connection | 06:06 |
| janimo | ogra, but are the ISOs ready? | 06:06 |
| mjg59 | Keybuk: The general issue is that we have nothing to define policy when no user is logged in | 06:06 |
| mjg59 | The same applies to power management | 06:06 |
| dholbach | bluefoxicy: I can't tell, sorry - and I think it's a bit too much to explain here on IRC - even if I had more of a clue about it. | 06:06 |
| Keybuk | yes we do | 06:06 |
| ogra | janimo, and ? | 06:06 |
| ogra | janimo, they'll be there tomorrow as well | 06:07 |

| mjg59 | Keybuk: No, we can't | 06:07 |
| Keybuk | why not? | 06:07 |
| janimo | ogra, why wait till tomorrow? | 06:07 |
| Keybuk | that's a bit of a self-limiting decision | 06:07 |
| mjg59 | Because the infrastructure for implementing that isn't there | 06:07 |
| bluefoxicy | dholbach: nod. | 06:07 |
| ogra | separate announcements have the advantage that you get recognized | 06:07 |
| mjg59 | That's not a failure of nm, it's a failure of our current dbus infrastructure | 06:07 |
| Keybuk | that's only because these things have been written wrong :) | 06:07 |
| mjg59 | It's getting fixed | 06:07 |
| ogra | janimo, because i need someone to proofread it, because i tested isos the last nights and am tired etc | 06:08 |

| ogra | -f | 06:16 |
| Riddell | mdz: http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/671490 | 06:16 |
| Riddell | mdz: feel free to put it on the wiki if you have changes | 06:17 |
| mdz | ogra: because they have different audiences, and thus different content | 06:17 |
| ogra | mdz, hmm, i thought we'd go with the flight6 format from now on | 06:17 |
| ogra | https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2006-April/000062.html | 06:17 |
| mdz | Riddell: please add the usual disclaimer about universe | 06:19 |
| Riddell | mdz: "unsupported" or is there something longer? | 06:19 |
| ogra | its a bit tricky to follow if we go back and forth i policy ... so we'll keep separate announcements in the future ? | 06:19 |
| mdz | ogra: feel free to combine your announcement with janimo and Riddell | 06:19 |
| ogra | mdz, i dont care, i was just thinking we'll stay with that policy ... | 06:19 |
| Riddell | I like having a separate announcement for the beta/final thing, stops it being overshadowed by ubuntu | 06:20 |
| mdz | Riddell: adventurous users can try foo and bar, which are not part of this official release but may be found in the unsupported 'universe' archive | 06:20 |
| ogra | yep ... i just remeber we had that discussion and jdub wanted to set up a wiki structure so we need only one announcement and have details on the wiki | 06:20 |
| bluefoxicy | Mithrandir: hi :) | 06:20 |
| bluefoxicy | Mithrandir: are you busy atm? | 06:21 |
| pitti | mdz: It just came to my mind that for the final announcement we should point out which subset of packages is supported for 5 years | 06:21 |
| Mithrandir | bluefoxicy: not just now, no. | 06:21 |
| ogra | (which i thought mgalvin's work was for) | 06:21 |
| Mithrandir | mdz: thanks for not having a meeting tonight. | 06:21 |
| mdz | ogra: for big announcements I think it's worthwhile for the core to have a dedicated announcement, but I'm happy for the derivatives to announce together | 06:21 |
| bluefoxicy | Mithrandir: did you want to take a look at any of the stuff I was writing up the other day re the livecd discussion? | 06:21 |
| mdz | Mithrandir: my pleasure | 06:21 |
| pitti | yeah, there wouldn't be much to report anyway apart from holidays, CD testing, and last-minute bug fixing :) | 06:21 |
| mdz | pitti: good call | 06:21 |
| Mithrandir | bluefoxicy: I've been a beta release mode for the last couple of days, so no, not really. | 06:22 |
| ogra | mdz, no, i'm fine with writing my own announcement its just that there were so many different ideas around it ... | 06:22 |
| bluefoxicy | Mithrandir: if you want to discuss anything we should probably go to #-offtopic; I don't have a clear reason to rework UBUNTU's livecd process and don't feel like making any kind of argument unless I have a real reason | 06:22 |
| pitti | mdz: maybe we should add a link to the list of packages, or (crazy, but worth discussing) we could drop the non-server packages to universe after 3 years | 06:22 |
| bluefoxicy | Mithrandir: ah, okay, another time then. | 06:22 |
| Mithrandir | bluefoxicy: have you written it up somewhere? | 06:22 |
| Mithrandir | bluefoxicy: oh, sorry, I misread what you wrote. | 06:22 |
| Mithrandir | bluefoxicy: I read "did you read", not "did you want to read". Yes, I'd love to read what you wrote. | 06:23 |
| Mithrandir | s/wrote/have written/ | 06:23 |
| bluefoxicy | Mithrandir: ah okay | 06:23 |
| Mithrandir | sorry, my english is kinda broken today; getting tired. | 06:23 |
| bluefoxicy | Mithrandir: i've got a file on my hard drive I can either send or pastebin.. heh if you want to rest we can do this another time ;) | 06:23 |
| Mithrandir | bluefoxicy: pastebin's fine. | 06:23 |
| mdz | pitti: crazy :-) | 06:24 |
| pitti | mdz: but not entirely unappealing, right? :) | 06:24 |
| Riddell | mdz: with that change am I good to post the kubuntu announcement? | 06:24 |
| bluefoxicy | Mithrandir: http://rafb.net/paste/results/a0Nj5f40.html Needs work, particularly I need to define exactly what the "Bootstrap Modules" should expect to be guaranteed. | 06:24 |
| bluefoxicy | but that's the basic idea | 06:24 |
| mdz | pitti: we've agreed that we can't really define support in terms of packages and components; the support team is going to provide more detailed definitions | 06:25 |

Graphical boot-up, interactive scripting, a LiveCD authoring system that works entirely on feeding it a kernel .deb and dropping into a shell multiple times, LiveCD extensions on USB disk, etc | 06:47 |
| fabbione | mdz: we need community time to understand the install from LiveCD thingy | 06:47 |
| carlos | pitti: using they own gettext implementation using python | 06:47 |
| carlos | s/they/their/ | 06:47 |
| fabbione | mdz: s/need/need to give/ | 06:47 |
| bluefoxicy | Mithrandir: Yeah but in usplash I can't add a script that pops up a window saying "Found these extra modules on USB drive, please check off which ones you want to load" or other crazy things. | 06:48 |

| Mithrandir | bluefoxicy: I prefer to try catering for real use-cases to avoid a second system effect. | 06:49 |
| sladen | bluefoxicy: RH's splash system is X; it adds ~45seconds to the boot process | 06:49 |
| bluefoxicy | sladen: kdrive | 06:50 |
| ogra | kdrive == X :) | 06:50 |
| bluefoxicy | it'll add probably 10 seconds if that :) | 06:50 |
| sladen | bluefoxicy: gtk on framebuffer might be a better bet | 06:50 |
| sladen | bluefoxicy: time it and find out :) | 06:50 |
| bluefoxicy | sladen: yeah, I'm only guaranteeing API wise that GTK/Zenity are around. | 06:50 |
| mjg59 | sladen: Not really, since vesafb breaks suspend/resume | 06:51 |
| Mithrandir | mjg59: that's not a huge concern on livecds yet, though. | 06:51 |
| bluefoxicy | if I can figure out how to do GTKfb (i've seen qtparted qt/FB and gparted gtk/fb on System Rescue CD) I'll probably step back to get rid of the 2 megs of xlibs/kdrive | 06:52 |
| mdz | janimo: how is xubuntu looking? | 06:52 |
| sladen | mjg59: I didn't say anything about vesafb | 06:53 |

| Mithrandir | bluefoxicy: I have to go now, we can talk further tomorrow? | 06:54 |
| bluefoxicy | sure | 06:55 |
| mjg59 | sladen: vesafb is the only real option in most cases. With the exception of radeonfb, the others tend to be terribly restricted in hardware support or reliability | 06:57 |
| === Tybstar [n=tgerla@rdu-nat.rpath.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| sladen | mjg59: for what bluefoxicy wants gtk on vga16fb with a 14-colour brown-and-black theme would work | 06:58 |
| mjg59 | sladen: X doesn't run on vga16fb, AFAIK | 06:59 |
| bluefoxicy | gtkfb doesn't exactly need X o.o | 07:00 |
| KaiL | http://picpaste.de/dapper-language.png uhm? ;) | 07:00 |
| mjg59 | But it does need at least vesafb | 07:00 |
| bluefoxicy | yeah | 07:02 |
| === j^ [n=j@e178008074.adsl.alicedsl.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| KaiL | looks, like language selection is broken in the live-cd? | 07:07 |
| seb128 | how so? | 07:07 |
| seb128 | you need to run apt-get update to have a list of language for it | 07:08 |
| KaiL | hmm.. not really self explaining | 07:08 |
| seb128 | no, it's not | 07:08 |
| seb128 | it could probably use an "update list" button or something | 07:09 |
| sladen | mjg59: if it needs vesafb then it's broken and should stick to the standard kernel framebuffer interface | 07:09 |
| KaiL | I thought, there are at least some localisations already on the CD?! | 07:09 |
| mjg59 | sladen: All the framebuffer interface gives you is a window into the ram on the card | 07:09 |
| mjg59 | If you want to use vga16fb, you still need to write vga code | 07:10 |
| mjg59 | There's nothing in the kernel to do the mode masking crap | 07:10 |
| sladen | mjg59: byte-swapping bit-planing crack? | 07:10 |
| mjg59 | That sort of madness | 07:10 |
| mjg59 | libbogl is the only framebuffer code that works with vga16fb | 07:10 |
| sladen | ...currently works... | 07:11 |
| sladen | and even then, not particularly efficiently | 07:12 |
| mjg59 | It could be better | 07:12 |
| mjg59 | But there is no "standard kernel framebuffer interface" | 07:12 |
| mjg59 | It just happens that most graphics hardware provides a linear framebuffer that corresponds directly to the screen... | 07:12 |
| KaiL | seb128, imho the installer should do that without any user interaction. And bring a list of the languages available, if you have no internet | 07:13 |
| seb128 | right | 07:13 |
| seb128 | ping mvo about it | 07:13 |
| fabbione | mdz: according to my torrents there are more people downloading live than install | 07:22 |

| KaiL | are there absolute numbers, about how many people try the beta compared to Flight-releases or breezy? ;) | 07:28 |
| fabbione | yeah | 07:28 |
| fabbione | KaiL: it's impossible to track | 07:28 |

| mdke | hey pitti | 09:11 |
| pitti | hi md | 09:11 |
| pitti | hi mdke | 09:11 |
| mdke | pitti, what's the reason that sexy global cups browsing thing you showed me earlier isn't active by default? is it insecure in some way? | 09:11 |
| === dieman too. | ||
| dieman | its default working in OSX | 09:11 |
| pitti | mdke: it's against our 'no open ports in the default install' policy | 09:11 |
| dieman | i'll note | 09:11 |
| mdke | pitti, even for desktops? | 09:12 |
| dieman | can't you leave browsing on for the client withuot leaving a port open, or no? | 09:12 |
| pitti | mdke: yes | 09:12 |
| mdke | pitti, so, it is insecure? | 09:12 |
| pitti | dieman: no, cups browsing is designed to require a listening port on the clients | 09:12 |
| dieman | eh? | 09:12 |
| dieman | i'll test it at home | 09:12 |
| dieman | but im pretty sure it doesn't | 09:12 |
| spacey | its really easy to turn on | 09:12 |
| pitti | mdke: well, only potentially | 09:12 |
| spacey | btw | 09:12 |
| dieman | oh no | 09:12 |
| dieman | it does | 09:12 |
| spacey | ^_^ | 09:12 |
| dieman | n/m | 09:12 |
| pitti | dieman: it is | 09:12 |
| dieman | i thought i had browsing on | 09:13 |
| pitti | dieman: servers announce their printers with UDP broadcasts, and clients need a listening port to collect them | 09:13 |
| dieman | but it got turned off again | 09:13 |
| pitti | it's quite reciprocal to the usual client/server paradigma | 09:13 |
| dieman | cupsd 15766 cupsys 2u IPv4 2539605 UDP *:ipp | 09:13 |
| dieman | yeah | 09:13 |
| pitti | but scales better | 09:13 |
| mdke | pitti, so should a user activate a firewall of some kind if they open that? | 09:13 |
| pitti | mdke: there are no actual known vulnerabilities, and as soon as there are, we'll fix them; it's just a good default security principle | 09:14 |
| mdke | pitti, ok | 09:14 |
| pitti | mdke: cups has its own ACL lists, but merely opening the port could you expose to DoS attacks, if not worse | 09:15 |
| === j_ack [n=nico@p508D959C.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| pitti | mdke: the worst possible impact is full control over your printing configuration and access to printers | 09:15 |
| pitti | mdke: ubuntu doesn't run cupsys as root, so the impact is pretty confined | 09:15 |
| mdke | right | 09:15 |
| pitti | (we are probably the only distro that does that, though) | 09:15 |
| mdke | pitti, thanks for the explanation. | 09:15 |
| pitti | you're welcome :) | 09:15 |
| dieman | i can't quite think why i thought it wouldn't need a port open, either ;) | 09:16 |
| pitti | dieman: in theory you could also design it the other way around | 09:16 |
| pitti | dieman: i. e. clients regularly poll for printers | 09:16 |
| dieman | yeah, but you'd still have to discover a server | 09:17 |
| pitti | dieman: and the server has an open port which responds | 09:17 |
| dieman | i guess you could do that too | 09:17 |
| pitti | dieman: but that wouldn't scale well with 100 clients and 1 server | 09:17 |
| dieman | but then it would feel a lot like a SMB network :) | 09:17 |
| janimo | mdz, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XubuntuBetaReleaseNote | 09:17 |
| pitti | dieman: yes, a lot of useless noise :) | 09:18 |
| janimo | I guess I could send to u-a since it is moderated and no improper content would pass? | 09:19 |
