Keybuk"Even though D-BUS is relatively new, it has been adopted very quickly. As I mentioned earlier, udev can be built with D-BUS support so that it sends a signal when a device is hot-plugged."01:17
Keybukthat's the second place I've read that01:17
Keybukand it's complete bullshit01:17
Keybukudev sends events to HAL using the "dump an envbuf to a named UNIX socket" trick01:18
Keybukand it's HAL that does dbus01:18
crimsunwhere?01:19

KeybukI've yet to find any decent docs on dbus services though01:22
KeybukI'm trying to learn enough to01:22
Keybuka) shoot down all the people who think init should be dbus01:22
Keybukb) consider whether there should be a upstart/dbus bridge01:22

jbaileyKeybuk: b) Probably.01:34
jbaileyKeybuk: Notifying user space that a service is now available could be really handy.01:34
Keybukindeed01:35
Keybukit's part of the spec that the equivalent of initctl can be used to read events, etc.01:35
Keybukhaving a little shim to read from that, and generate dbus signals01:35
Keybukas well as turn dbus methods into initctl messages01:35
Keybukwould be kinda cute01:35

fabbionezul: something for  you and Ben to check. the kernel postinstall is broken02:19
fabbionethat comes from kernel-package02:19
fabbioneor some reasons -4- build doesn't create an initramfs nor update symlinks (for ppc) or update grub menu entries02:20
fabbionefor the matter i also had to run depmod -a manually02:20
zulgrrr...ok..02:22
zulpdate grub is dont through kernel-package as well correct?02:36
fabbioneuh?02:37
fabbionekernel-package provides the postinstall for each kernel image02:37
fabbionei didn't check the details but something it has been done that makes that non working02:37

ograBenC, keyboard works fine now, but you forgot to enable the right/middle mousekey emulation 05:27
ogra(or its broken for me if you didnt)05:28
BenCI thought I did05:28
BenCI'll check it though05:28
BenCfabbione: Hmm, I'll check on that05:29
fabbioneBenC: ok thanks. I also have the feeling that ppc is overheating05:51
fabbioneBenC: is there a way to check fans and stuff? i have the same pb as your05:51
zullater..05:52
ografabbione, mine isnt getting hotter than usual ... (if i kill the panel menu which eats 65% CPU load constantly)05:53
fabbionesome of my panel notification thingy don't work on ppc  but i have a strange thing with the cpu05:54
fabbioneload is high as in 205:54
fabbionebut cpu usage is very low05:54
fabbionelike 20%05:54
ogradoes your app menu in the panel work ? 05:55
