mjg59ogra: The ati driver wouldn't drive them anyway12:22
ograoh, ok, then it makes sense12:22
ograi thought you switched because the driver wasnt detecting radeon vs ati 12:23
mdzmjg59: using the IDs from the driver itself?  what was the delta like vs. discover-data?12:23
mjg59I just added all the hardware supported by the driver to the list12:23
mjg59mdz: 5 entries in the driver that weren't in discover-data12:23
Burgworkmjg59, what is the difference betweeen the ati and the radeon driver?12:23
=== Arrogance [n=aks@ottawa-hs-206-191-56-216.d-ip.magma.ca] has joined #ubuntu-devel
mjg59Burgwork: ati is a meta-driver that loads the appropriate real driver12:23
mdzthe trouble is that discover-data always needs updating to keep up with the driver12:24
Burgworkmjg59, ah, ok12:24
mjg59mdz: Post-dapper we'll probably be able to drive them again and can revert it12:24
mjg59But it doesn't look like we'll have support in time12:24
mjg59(for dapper)12:24

tsenginfinity: I *think* beagle needs dep-wait cleared when my last upload goes into the queue12:33
sladenthe i810 driver is just a bunch of #define's for the PCI-IDs it supports12:36
Burgworksladen, that sounds ugly12:37
mjg59It's the same for all of them12:38
Burgworkisn't x a mess of ifdefs?12:38
mjg59Right now, in-X detection is a matter of loading every driver until you hit one that doesn't refuse to stick12:38
mdztseng: I think that's supposed to be fully automatic these days12:42
tsengmdz: oh, thats clever12:42
tsengmdz: i was never quite sure which ones require manual intervention.. launchpad says "manual depwait"12:42
tsengmdz: did you sneak in a break yet? :)12:43
mdztseng: yes, confusing terminology in this case12:43
mdztseng: I replied to your emails12:43
ogramjg59, having all such data in hal one day would so rock ... dexconf would only need some hal calls 12:43
desrtogra; bah.  try having it in-kernel12:44
tsengmdz: I meant from the release circus12:44
Burgworkdesrt, why are graphics and input drivers not in kernel?12:44
desrtogra; pci device id of your vidcard causes the whole udev magic machine to load the right module which exposes a common interface12:44
ogradesrt, why ? its valuable data for hal you can use it ijn other areas as well12:44
desrtBurgwork; history :)12:45
ograi.e. imagine hal knows you have two monitors and a xinerama capable HW :)12:45
Burgworkdesrt, in kernel would require dual license or solaris/bsd/other unix to write their own drivers, no?12:45
desrtoh license bah12:45
desrtfglrx is in kernel and i'm fairly sure it's under somewhat more-gpl-incompat terms than X12:46
ografglrx is in kernel ??12:46
desrtbut ya..  you hit on a big issue12:46
desrthaving X drivers in X itself enables X to go between different OS kernels and take drivers with it12:47
ograits a module, no ? 12:47
mdztseng: that break comes on June 2nd12:47
desrtogra; the drm parts are a kernel module12:47
ogradesrt, still not "in kernel" ...12:47
desrtogra; not using it as an example of a video module so much as a piece of non-gpl code that gets linked to the kernel12:47
Burgworkmdz, no, on june everybody just gets flung off and has to pick themselves up and get back on again12:47
mdztseng: unless you could the 13 or so hours on airplanes between now and then12:47
mdzs/could/count/12:48
desrtogra; my example involves loading of modules... like fglrx12:48
ogradesrt, yes, but it sounded like there would be monolithic parts compiled into the kernel12:48
ograas you said it12:48
desrtoh.  no.12:48

Chipzzanyone noticing power-manager brokeness?12:50
ChipzzI have power-manager set to do nothing when closing the lid, but it tries to suspend nevertheless :/12:51
desrtdo you have a powerpc?12:52
Chipzzwhich is *bad* in my case, since suspend to ram causes X to break very badly (X just goes in a never-ending loop of crashing on resume)12:52

Keybukinfinity: because the directories need to be created on the root filesystem10:05
Keybuknot on whatever filesystem happens to be mounted on /var :)10:05
Keybukso there's a bit of bind-mount-magic10:06
Keybukotherwise one can't mount /var/run or /var/lock until after you've mounted /var10:06
infinityKeybuk: But nothing should need either until /var exists anyway.. No?10:06
Keybukno10:06
Keybukthe point of /var/run and /var/lock is that they're writable places for the entire boot10:07
Keybuk/var isn't mounted until reasonably late10:07
infinityThis was never a problem before all this hackery began..10:07
Keybukcertainly well after things like udev, ifupdown, dhclient, ntpdate, etc. are running10:07
infinityI never had anythig that wanted to write to /var/run before /var was mounted.10:07
Keybukit wasn't a problem until we started relying on udev10:07
infinityOh, I see.  Ick.10:07
=== Mithrandir wonders when we should stop tweaking cupsd.conf. It's getting annoying to get conffile prompts about it each and every day.
Keybukonce you rely on udev, you need a tmpfs for pid files10:08
=== looksaus [n=mark@86-39-96-252.customer.fulladsl.be] has joined #ubuntu-devel
Keybukotherwise there's a bit of a chicken and egg problem10:08
Keybukif udev is creating /dev nodes and starting services, then it can't start services until after the device node for any filesystem they need has been created10:09
Keybukthe two options to fix it were10:09
Keybuka) two partial udevplugs during boot, one to deal with important nodes and then one after filesystems are mounted and checked to actually start things10:10
Keybukb) just make /var/run a tmpfs10:10
Keybuka has the obvious problem you can't have an NFS /usr ;)10:10
infinityYeah, I see the issue now.  It's just all rather icky. :)10:11
Keybukactually, I think it's somewhat elegant10:11
Keybukhaving a tmpfs for pid files makes sense10:11
Keybukas you never need them after reboot *anyway*10:11
Keybukand we've since been able to use /var/run as a "transient" directory10:12
infinityOh, no, having it as a tmpfs makes sense.  It's the bindmount moving trickery that's icky.10:12
Keybukit solved the ifup-using-/etc bug, for example10:12

mjg59Where does the default get set?11:39
=== Kamion guesses that the range handling is wrong
Keybukindeed, RLIMIT_NICE is RLIM_INFINITY11:39
mjg59My suspicion is that it ends up as unlimited if not explicitly set?11:39
Kamionperhaps, although shouldn't the kernel have a sane default?11:40
Kamionunless pam's setting it to unlimited11:40
mjg59The kernel seems to set it to 0 (include/asm-generic/resource.h)11:41
mjg59Hm. I can't see anywhere where pam /could/ set it to unlimited, though11:41
Keybukisn't "0" actually -2011:42
mjg59Keybuk: No11:42
Keybukoh, no, 0 would be 2011:42
mjg59Well, 1911:42
mjg59            limit_value = 19 - limit_value;11:43
Keybukmjg59: the kernel tends to do 20 - value11:43
Keybukthough doesn't seem to on that11:43
=== Keybuk boggles his way through can_nice
mjg59Keybuk: From the userspace point of view, it's -20 to +1911:44
Keybukyeah, from kernel pov it's 1 to 40 isn't it?11:44
mjg59Yes11:44
Kamionpam sets all limits to RLIM_INFINITY by default11:44
Kamion(init_limits)11:44
mjg59Kamion: Doh. Right.11:44
mjg59That'll be the problem, then.11:44

pittiKamion: wrt. bug 14597, my current plan is to add all gimp-help-* but the -en one to the language-support-* packages, so that we can fix the bug at least for all non-English speakers; do you think it would be appropriate to change the seeds to not add l-support-en to the CD (and only seed a subset instead)?11:46

ograand none of my edubuntu users use it either currently 04:56
pittiogra: in main, only linux-ntfs build-deps on it to build ntfsprogs04:56
ograltsp will depend on it in eft in any case 04:57
pittiogra: ok, so it wouldn't disrupt you if I requrested an UVF exception?04:57
pittiogra: I'll try out fuse myself now and check if 2.5 works any better/worse04:57
ograand if users want to set up localdev in ltsp now, they should get a working fuse04:57

Petaris_labyet it does07:19

Petaris_labor is the ssh session not started until login/07:20
ograi dont understand what you mean with "a client that has been up for a while" ?07:20
Petaris_laba client that has been started but sitting at the login screen07:20
ograthe login is running ssh -X user@server /etc/X11/XSession07:21

ograif you are not logged in DISPLAY is set to the client 07:21
Petaris_labok07:21

Petaris_labso a sleep should do the trick07:21
ograsetting it happens during the login process07:22
