tsenghi sfllaw, welcome to ubuntu land01:47
sfllawtseng: Thanks.01:48
sfllawI'm Simon.01:48
sfllawI don't think we've met before.01:48
sfllawOr if we have, I've forgotten.01:49
tseng< Brandon01:49
sfllawI have a terrible memory.01:49
Kamionnomed: at present there are one or two, but they're bugs01:49
tsengyou just touched a beagle bug earlier, thats me01:49
sfllawAh.01:49
tsengi only know you from your blog, otherwise01:49
Kamionbmonty: we have a tool that tells us about binary packages that aren't built from source, and I run it periodically and act on it; no need for bug reports in that case01:50
sfllawtseng: That's very cool.  Just reading your weblog now.01:51
bmontyKamion: ok, I already submitted two bugs...I'll mark them as rejected01:52

Kamionafter I've confirmed a bug on one of my packages, I really would appreciate people not rejecting it02:02

mjg59Kamion: Is there a mechanism for seeing who confirmed a bug?02:02
Kamionmjg59: link labelled "activity log" in the top left portlet02:03
mjg59Ah, ok02:04
mjg59Helpful02:04
\shoh fck..now I see mjg59 and it gives me the punch in my face...02:04
\shmjg59: the keys on the toshiba are not working anymore, but hibernating from script e.g. is working...02:05
mjg59\sh: Can you be a bit more precise than "not working"?02:05
mjg59All of the hotkeys, or just sleep/hibernate? Are they generating events in /var/log/acpid ?02:06
\shmjg59: yes :) 02:06
\shmjg59: the events are generated, hibernatebtn.sh is executed, but the real action in hibernate.sh is not 02:06
\shmjg59: all buttons....(tested under kubuntu)02:07
mjg59Oh, right02:08
mjg59It's probably KDE being broken, then02:08
\shhum? 02:08
Kamionzul_: sorry, I know it's mostly not you, just a build-up of apparently massive interest in my bugs over the last couple of weeks02:09
\shdon't tell me, that kde is fighting against shellscripts and acpi_fakekey?02:09

\shmjg59: so the fakekey event from acpi_fakekey is not catched properly from kde...because something important is not working...Hope I find a solution in the next three days...it's really painfull presenting kubuntu at linuxtag without a working laptop integration 02:11
mjg59\sh: I don't have time to do any KDE work02:12
mjg59But something needs to catch KEY_SUSPEND (linux keycode 205, not sure what the X keycode is) and trigger hibernate02:12
\shmjg59: I don't blame you...:) 02:12
mjg59Ditto for KEY_SLEEP (linux keycode 142) and trigger sleep02:12
mjg59Or alternatively listen for HAL events that send BUTTONPRESSED HIBERNATE or BUTTONPRESSED SLEEP02:13
mjg59(or something like that)02:13

jmgyeah05:10
sfllawYou can choose to keep the package separation, but generate them from one source.05:10
sfllawOr you can merge everything into one package, and have Provides: and Replaces: for the old ones.05:10
jmgNo provision to have different controlfiles for derivatives is there?05:11

ProN00bi mean if they don't break anything and just work with the system they could at least by in multiverse01:21

\shChipzz: yes :) but gpg-agent does not store the key in ram :)04:41
\shChipzz: what I wanted to say is that I don't like it 04:41
Chipzzuhu04:41
Chipzzmaybe someone should rewrite gpg-agent to work more like ssh-agent?04:41
Chipzzor wouldn't that make a difference for you?04:41
\shhow should that work? putting the unlocked key into ram? 04:42
Chipzzuhu04:42
Chipzzbut actually I have no clue about gpg, so I may be talking non-sense04:42
\shChipzz: it won't make a difference to me, I like more the manual approach to enter my passphrase every time :)04:42
bmontyjust because the key is only stored in ram doesn't mean it isn't written to the disk04:42
\shram means physical memory and swap memory04:42
Chipzzbmonty: you mean swapped out?04:42
bmontyChipzz: yes04:43
Chipzzactually I think it's a non-issue04:43
Chipzzif a user can gain root privs, or if you don't trust root04:43
Chipzzthen he can just as well install a keylogger or a rootkit04:44
mjrit's not a non-issue if your box is stolen or confiscated04:44
Chipzzif your box is confiscated they need to power-cycle it04:44
Chipzzin which case the key will be gone04:44
bmontyChipzz: if the key or password was in swap it probably still exists after a power cycle04:45
mjrexcept if it's written in swap04:45
Chipzzbmonty: then use encrypted swap?04:45
mjrthough, the paranoid among us have encry... right04:45
Chipzzand if your laptop is stolen, you'ld better have a good screensaver which asks you for your password04:45
bmontyChipzz: encrypting swap is a possible solution04:46
\shto be more precise: if you are using your box as a single user machine, all is fine...but if the box is used by more then one person, those things can be security issue...if the people using this box don't know04:46
Chipzzif you don't, then this discussion is moot anyway04:46
Chipzzbmonty: it all depends on how paranoia you are, and how much you have to hide04:46
\shsomeone who is working from home and is connecting to a network in his company should always be paranoid :)04:48
Chipzzbut for 99% of our users, this basically *is* a non-issue04:48
\shChipzz: but gpg-agent is an issue, because without it kmail doesn't work properly regarding decrypting mime gpg mails04:48
\shbut that's more a kmail issue ;)04:49
Chipzzkmail should not rely on the agent then ;)04:49
\shChipzz: tell that the kde devs :)04:49

Chipzzbmonty: then you're more security-minded than I am ;)04:50

Seveasmgalvin, pong09:35
shawn_homeanyone have a reason as to why we use them?09:37
Mithrandirshawn_home: probably because there's no reason not to and it's what we get from Debian?09:38
shawn_home!!!09:38
Mithrandirshawn_home: also, iirc, we use a somewhat patched cvs snapshot of binutils, so I'm not sure your claim that we're using H. J. Lu's binutils.09:39
shawn_homenot according to debian: binutils (2.16.1cvs20060413-1)09:39

shawn_homeGNU ld version 2.16.91 20060118 Debian GNU/Linux is dapper09:39
Mithrandiryes, and?  Why do you claim that it's not the "official" binutils?09:39
shawn_homethere is no .91 package in ftp.gnu.org 09:40
shawn_homebut there is in: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/devel/binutils/09:40
Mithrandiryes, and if you read release.binutils-2.16.91.0.1 in that directory it says that it's the beta release.09:43
shawn_homeok,i stand corrected, the gcc people tell me thats not the other one09:43

XiXaQI'd like to have a cd-checker-feature in the ubuntu installation. I've had alot of problems (possibly) because of a faulty installation medium. I had to install windows again, download another copy, check it again, before I can resume installation of ubuntu. If I had known that there was something wrong with the cd, then I could simply reboot in windows, get a new one and try again.09:47

mjg59XiXaQ: You can select it from Dapper's boot menu09:48
XiXaQmjg59, right, I was talking about 5.10.09:48
XiXaQgreat.09:48
XiXaQanother request: a simple IRC client with a connection to an installation support group. and possibly a small text-based web client.09:49
MithrandirXiXaQ: it's in breezy too, but not discoverable.  Select "back" from one of the prompts and you should get to the main menu.09:51
MithrandirXiXaQ: from there, select "check cd-rom integrity"09:51

MithrandirXiXaQ: yes, and there's a live installer there too.09:55
MithrandirXiXaQ: those questions are more appropriate for #ubuntu or possibly #ubuntu-no, though.09:55
