jdongis gnome-panel cpu hogging for anyone else?12:19
jdongit chews a constant 70%-ish for me12:19
jdong(edgy)12:19
shiningsee bugs12:20
shiningI don't know what's the status how it though, I've read some stuff on ubuntu, debian and gnome bugzilla12:21
jdongbtw, when'd /bin/sh turn into dash?12:24
theCorejdong: it did on my system once, I had to `killall gnome-panel' to fix it12:24
jdongtheCore: it happens every login every time on my system right now :-/12:25
jdongdoing a dist-upgrade right now, but don't see anything that should affect the panel12:25
crimsunis it reproducible for a brand new user?12:25
shiningerm, I'm looking at the bugs again, some of them are a few month old, and are marked as fixed12:26
jdongcrimsun: happens in my freshly upgraded edgy12:27
jdongwhen I get a chance, I'll try a livecd12:27
shiningI just removed a broken symlink12:27
jdongbut it's got me running kubuntu for now ;)12:27
shiningor kill gamin12:27
jdonghmm, kill gamin.... that sounds like an idea12:28
shininghehe, me too :)12:28
shiningit's the second bug on gnome-panel12:30
shininghttps://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/gnome-panel/+bugs12:30
shininghigh and confirmed12:31
shiningthere are at least three workarounds12:31
shiningkilling gamin, removing the broken link, fixing the link (by installing menu or something)12:31
jdongshining: thanks, will do workarounds, but that still doesn't address the issue :-/12:32
shiningno12:32
=== jdong subscribes to bug
shiningsince it's a problem with gamin, either that needs to be fixed or something else used instead12:32
shiningalso, fixing the menu packages to not provide a broken symlink wouldn't hurt, I think12:33

rshakinseems to me that the folks in #ubuntu are ether ignorinng me or something...12:51
=== shining looks at topic
jdongrshakin: shoot. it better be good or we'll ignore you too ;)12:51
jdongif you don't ask quickly, someone will hurry you off to #ubuntu again :)12:52
shiningwell, it has been off topic for a few hours, so I guess it doesnt matter12:53
rshakinok, i am getting a shitload of erors when i try to update my system...  http://madwifi.org/paste/16112:53
rshakinthats what i get when i try to update using apt-get update 12:53
jdongyou spelled archive wrong :)12:53
jdongthat's your first problem12:54
shininglol, so lame12:54
jdongand it looks like you've got some connection problems to us.archive.ubuntu.com, too12:54
jdongsince I'm using that mirror right now to download 400MB of updates, I'd say your network connection is wacky12:54
rshakinhmm weird 12:55
rshakini am on it right now :) 12:55
jdongeither way, fix that typo first :)12:55
rshakinhehe... will do that 12:55
bddebiandoko: You aren't around by any chance are you?12:55
jdongbddebian: wow, still working hard on azureus?12:56
rshakinbtw this is a clean install from a cd... nothing on it except what came with 12:56
rshakinthis is just weird it's like my isp is  blocking that site 12:58
bddebianjdong: Just now getting to it12:58
jdongrshakin: well, I don't believe that archive was spelled wrong on the cd.... but your isp might have connection issues to the mirror12:58
jdongbddebian: k, cool... fedora's azureus runs really well with gcj, so let's hope we're that lucky too12:59
rshakinwell the archive was my fault... i was trying to edit to another mirror... so yeah thats more of my fault 12:59
jdong:)01:00
rshakinbut as far as mirror, you are right there is no traffic going through to it for some off reason... 01:00
bddebianjdong: Well I don't see the actual source.  Pulling from redhats repo all I seem to get are the patches01:00
jdongbddebian: look for fedora extras' src.rpm's then?01:00
rshakinis there another mirror that i can use  besides us.archive 01:00

=== jdong used to be a c# fanatic when he used windows
pygijdong, :)01:03
tsengyeah, nice language01:03
hikenboothello all--I asked in #ubuntu but will ask here ...is there a list somewhere of packages that are installed in ubuntu live cd 6.06.1 that are not necessary for the basic function of the cd ..I am trying to make a custom live cd and want to make room for my own packages by removing all workstation related packages except gnome itself01:03
tsenggtk# for the win01:04
pygihikenboot, you have several "modify livecd" apps01:04
jdongtseng: do you know how well mono would work on arm?01:04
tsengjdong: it works on arm...01:04
tsengarm-l support is new01:04
tsengi cant get it going on 770 on first try01:04
tsengsomeone apperantly has, havent had much time for it01:04
jdongtseng: there's the JIT compiler on arm, right?01:04
jdongdoes mono's jit compiler generally make the code execute faster than python?01:05
tsenggenerally faster than python...01:05
bddebianEgads, how do I extract a clean gcj to make a patch?01:05
tsengthats pretty hard to answer01:05

Burgworkhikenboot, check the seeds01:06
jdongtseng: grr, monodevelop doesn't let me cut and paste from the documentation browser? :)01:06
hikenbootpygi, besides livedistro what others got a link to a list somewhere?01:06
tsengjdong: why wouldnt it?01:06
hikenbootcheck the seeds? what do you mean?01:06
tsengjdong: i just did01:06
jdongtseng: almost everything under edit is greyed out while the documentation tab is active?01:07
pygihikenboot, I'll give you a script that you'll run01:07
tsengi went back to the file tab01:07
pygihikenboot, sec pls01:07
tsengand pasted01:07
Burgworkhikenboot, ubuntu is built from seeds. see people.ubuntu.com/~cjwatson/seeds/01:07
pygihikenboot, COLUMNS=200 dpkg -l | awk ' { if ($1 == "ii") print $2; }' > /tmp/pkglist.txt01:07
jdongtseng: middle-click pasting works, but the menu options are all disabled... can you confirm that?01:08
pygihikenboot, my command should also help :P01:08
tsengi dont use anything but "middle click pasting"01:08
tsengwhat menu do you mean, exactly01:08
jdongtseng: edit->copy01:08
jdongit's greyed out in the documentation tab01:08
tsengok, yes01:09
jdong:-/ I'd call that a missing feature :)01:09
hikenboothey pygi, thats great...its a much shorter list than i generated with other commands i have used..I assume these are the root packages that install the others?01:10
=== jdong too lazy to do anything about it
tsengI personalyl would have never noticed01:10
tsengthe documentation tab is embedding monodoc01:10
jdonghmm01:10
jdongdoes stuff written on edgy in mono typically work in dapper?01:11
jdongi.e. how's mono's binary compatiblity?01:11
pygihikenboot, those are all packages you have01:11
tsengit should be good01:11
tsengback a few versions01:11
tsengexcept for say, sharpzlib01:11
tsengthat was a nice abi break 01:11
hikenbootah instead of package i guess i was showing deb's or somthing01:11

tsengjdong: not good01:12

hungerWhat is the recommendation on upstart use? I read it should be tested side by side with sysvinit, but now those two conflict.10:46
giftnudelhunger: just uninstall sysvinit ;)10:46
hungergiftnudel: That will breaks ubuntu-minimal.10:47
giftnudelhunger: really?10:47
giftnudelhunger: for me it didnt10:47
_ionIt doesn't "break" it, it just removes it. :-)10:47
hunger_ion: Well, OK, I should have explained that better;-)10:48
_ionNo harm done. Install ubuntu-minimal later again, when it allows upstart.10:48
giftnudelhunger: are you sure it breaks it? It only uninstalled ubuntu-minimal for me10:48
hungergiftnudel: s/breaks/uninstalls/10:48
giftnudelehm, it only uninstalled sysvinit for me10:48
giftnudelhunger: forget the statement before the last10:48
giftnudelthat was wrong10:49
hungerSorry, I should have said the right thing instead of claiming breakage.10:49
giftnudelhunger: so correctly: I did not need to uninstall ubuntu-minmal10:49
hungerHmmm... aptitude is not happy with my current setup anyway, wanting to uninstall ubuntu-desktop due to broken dependencies all the time.10:50
giftnudelI just did apt-get install upstart and it only removed sysvinit10:50
hungerUninstalling ubuntu-minimal should not make matters worse:-)10:50
giftnudelhehe10:50
zygahunger: upstart works okay10:51
=== hunger is a bit worried that upstart is supposed to contain the functionality of inetd.
zygajust make sure you got upstart-sysvinit-compat 10:51
hungerzyga: Yeap, so it does for me.10:51

hungerIt would have been nice if somebody had warned me that updating upstart causes kernel panics:-|11:13
_ionhunger: It shouldn't  or maybe it does if you upgrade from < 0.2...11:13
hunger_ion: I assumed that it should not;-) What should cause kernel panics after all?11:14
_ionhunger: init (pid 1) dying.11:14
hungerI still find it pretty scary that upstart is supposed to replace inetd.11:15
=== _ion finds it great.
hunger_ion: You find it great that process 1 listens on the network?11:15

lasindiHi everyone, I'm trying to create my own custom Ubuntu live CD, and I'm following this tutorial: http://www.atworkonline.it/~bibe/ubuntu/custom-livecd.htm I've written a script that I'd like to create a shortcut on the desktop to (like the "Install" shortcut to the installer). Since this shortcut must be copied to /home/ubuntu/Desktop at boot, is there a script in the CD that creates the ubuntu user that I can modify?11:53

pixelmonkeygiftnudel, see, the problem is that the dependencies are a little strange.  libgnomeui-dev expects 2.14.1-0ubuntu2, and indeed that is my version, but it also provides ubuntu3, which is what seems to mess up the install06:13

Chipzz *** 2.14.1-0ubuntu3 006:20
Chipzz        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status06:20
Chipzzthis means06:20
zygaKeybuk: it has happened regularly before upstart completly replaced init, I did't notice any problems since06:21
Chipzzlibgnomeui-0 is version 2.14.1-0ubuntu3, and it is only mentioned in that file (which is dpkg' status file)06:21
giftnudelKeybuk: I had xorg crash on me and after a reboot, I didn't have X there and logged into the console, I found out that e2fsk was running and apparently corrected some errors, and the system rebooted without a warning06:21
Chipzzit also means that the origin of the package is unknown06:21
Keybukgiftnudel: that's kinda kooky06:22
pixelmonkeyChipzz, hmm, I knew I shouldn't have run EasyUbuntu... I bet they grabbed it for some reason06:22

Chipzzmay very well be the case06:28
zygaKeybuk: no, I'm saying that upstart+compat-stuff finally stopped06:29
zygait started right after installing upstart initially06:29
pixelmonkeyChipzz, ahhh.. I see... dapper-updates for some reason had its deb-src entry in my sources.list, but not the actual entry06:29

Keybukpygi, ivoks_: I'm reasonably pleased that it seems to be working well for most people that are trying it06:56
giftnudelKeybuk: Ok, the problem is different: As you pointed out, the console comes far too early. When fsck.ext3 is run, the problem is, that the console is there, when the check is run, and you don't see any progress of the check, the usplash just disappears and if you change to a different console, you can login while the check runs06:56

broonieDependency information, for example.08:33
Keybukupstart isn't dependency-based08:33
Keybuklet's start from the beginning08:34
Keybukwhat is it that you're interested in, and what question are you trying to answer?08:34
broonieI'm trying to find out about any changes you guys are making to the init process.08:34

Keybukprevious changes in dapper (the re-ordering of the boot process) or future changes in edgy+1 (conversion to using upstart)?08:35
broonieFuture ones.08:35
Keybukupstart-devel is probably the best place for that, then08:35

zyg1well they are scripts written using upstart job syntax :P08:43
Keybukzyg1: still not sure I'm following you08:44
zyg1Keybuk: I was wondering if there is a list of packages that ship init.d script that could be modified to run from upstart but no one is looking at those packages because of low priority08:44
broonieRight. My most practical interest is in seeing if anyone manages to come up with a way of resolving the mess with things like NFS, NIS and autofs playing together. 08:45
Keybukzyg1: well, for edgy, all packages are such08:45
Keybukwe're not going to start the mass-modification until edgy+108:45
Keybukbroonie: this should, in theory, be easy with upstart08:45
zyg1so init stays by default? ok08:45

zyg1imbrandon: my frustration with writing stuff that manages them :/09:18
imbrandon;)09:18
zyg1apparently python's implementation of tar (tarfile module) has an annoying bug that makes it impossible to extract a single file from memory when the tar file is compressed 09:19
zyg1it has been wrongly labeled as win-specific and left ignored; it can be easily avoided by simply extracting a file to fs and reading it but the sheer crappines and complexity/legacy of tar is annoying IMO09:20
sladenzyg1: interesting, I haven't tried that.  only compressed from disk and uncompressed form memory09:20
zyg1sladen: w8709:20
sladenzyg1: perhaps you can feed the file through a stringio object09:20
zyg1wait09:20
imbrandonwell honestly it does surprise me , i guesss since i came froma  non-debian background to ubuntu, but imho i do "the right thing" in that any "new" packages i get into debian first ( or try to ) and submit my patches upstream against their source etc etcetc , anyhow this isnt the channel for this so i'll shush now09:20

Seveaszyg1, why not use python_apt?09:32
sladenzyg1: scan the bz2 stream and note down a pointer to the corresponding start of each 900kB compressed block.  The you have ram-access with a sector size of 900kB09:32

zyg1?09:37
zyg1no no09:37
sladenzyg1: no.  each 900kB in a bz2 stream is compressed completely independently.  You do need to know that the block for 3.5MB corresponds to offset 423,877 in the compressed stream though09:37
zyg1cnf => command not found, cnr is linspire tech called click and run09:37
darius_How can I see bugs only related to Edgy?09:37
sladendarius_: bugs that haven't been marked fixed are presumed to be present in edgy09:38
zyg1sladen: but that's really encoded in tar, right? I'd need to parse the tar header (I don't know if there is full map of stored stuff at the beginning) and the seek in bz2 to the place I want and start decoding there09:38
darius_sladen: thanks09:38
zyg1sladen: and since tar allows stuff to be appended I don't really think that's possible without reading the whole thing anyway09:38
zyg1I might be wrong but that's my gut feeling09:38
sladenzyg1: basically you need to have scanned the file once, and generated that "full map".  We intend to do this as standard for delta updates09:39
zyg1sladen: nice09:39
zyg1sladen: delta updates for stuff inside the archive with file granularity?09:40
zyg1or with block granularity without file correspondence?09:40
zyg1(or however that is spelled)09:40
sladenzyg1: so in this case we scan the file when it is generated on the build-daemon;  store it with the .deb and then partial HTTP gets you the random access to each compressed block09:41
sladenzyg1: no, sub-file granularity.  eg. to ~4kB09:41
zyg1sladen: I was thinking about something simple and backwards compatible09:41
sladenzyg1: this is backwards compatible09:42
zyg1ah, I was not thinking about delta updates09:42
zyg1about fast access09:42
zyg1deb is just an ar right?09:42
sladenzyg1: deb = ar -> gz -> tar 09:42
zyg1there are 3 files inside, debian-binary, control.tar.gz and data.tar.gz or bz209:42
zyg1right09:42
sladenzyg1: so ignore the tar and ar parts.   the data you want is a gzip stream starting at an offset from the start of the .deb09:43
sladenzyg1: and then and a offset within that gzip stream09:43
sladenan09:43
zyg1sladen: parsing ar is easy, I already did that09:43
zyg1parsing tars and gzips is also easy - we have libs09:44
zyg1my only grief is that I need to fix one of them (tarfile) and do some stuff I don't want :)09:45
zyg1the thought of implementing tar again in python so that my use case is fast is not a nice thought though :/09:46
Mithrandirzyg1: just fix the tarfile module, then?09:46
zyg1right09:46
zyg1I'm doing that09:46
sladenzyg1: oh, and the python fuse module can't create device nodes.  That needs fixing too.  Upstream didn't so maybe I'll fix it straight in the Ubuntu package09:47
sladen...it needs the API extending by one parameter (which are least is possible in pythong)09:47
sladenzyg1: so what are you working on;  it sounds like the core requirement might be very similar to the stuff that's already done09:48
zyg1sladen: yeah I know about mknod issue I used to play with fuse some time ago09:48
zyg1sladen: hmm?09:49
zyg1I only want to scan all debs I have and get symlinks, alternatives and executable files09:50
sladenzyg1: don't tell me you're writing debfs too :)09:50

zyg1since I already wasted my time on trying to get fuse to guess alternatives09:51
zyg1sladen: that's way too complex for my needs 09:51
zyg1in the end I need to tell someone that vim is available in the yada-yada set of packages...09:53
sladenah, I see.  I think.  09:54
zyg1sladen: that's dead easy when you ignore alternatives09:54
zyg1(which unfortunatly cover the most interesting packages)09:54
sladenzyg1: mmmm09:55
sladenzyg1: it would be a wonderful problem to solve though09:55
zyg1I even parse the postinst scripts to get the alternatives but some !@#!% maintainers use $i for the target for some reason (like when they want vim.foo and vim.bar processed in a loop)09:56
zyg1after a dumb scan of main (and noticing that .tar.bz2 is valid as data source too) I got about 1.4K packages with $i or $var as alternative09:57
zyg1I don't want to scan universe without getting a better scanner which I'm trying to make now09:57
zyg1that's why I wanted to use fuse some time ago, so that I could chroot into fuse-based virtual fs and then exec the postinst script09:58
zyg1but that would take ages and would not solve the problem really :/09:58
sladenzyg1: you could do normal chmod and just wrap  update-alternatives09:59
sladenzyg1: normal chroot09:59
zyg1yeah but postinst stuff tend to do weird things09:59
sladenzyg1: but it would be better if they didn't need executing at all09:59
zyg1right09:59
zyg1(I'd really like update-alternatives in a declarative form)10:00
sladenzyg1: perhaps an option would be to add that meta-data to the packages that you can't parse10:00
zyg1so that 99% of packages don't use installers after unpacking data10:00
zyg1sladen: the important packages will get an eye review10:00
sladenzyg1: 1.4k as in 1,400 packages in main using  for $i in ... ; do update-alternatives...10:00
zyg1sladen: yes, 1.4k10:01
zyg1wait10:01
sladenzyg1: given that that about how many packages there /are/ in main10:01

zyg1no sorry 10:01
zyg1my mistake: first off that's for all arches10:01
zyg1and second that's counting packages the scanner couldn't understand10:02
zyg1729 packages in main use alternatives with $variable10:02
zyg1that's the state from yesterday10:02
zyg1scanning main took about 7 hours10:02
zyg1scanning universe will take about a day since it's quite larger10:03
zyg1I don't event want to look at all packages in universe that require manual checks10:03
=== HiddenWolf wonders at the knot2 torrent. Still uploading my theoretical maximum after 27 hours....
HiddenWolfDoes anyone have any figures on how much these things get downloaded?10:09

jdongwow, is upstart fast at spawning a getty at startup :)10:32
zygajdong: yeah, upstart is quite faster at getting the whole thing to boot :)10:32
jdongit's impressive10:32
zygaI think it's a bug/misfeature about the getty though10:33
zygaIt's spawned from event.d 10:33
imbrandonso with the current state of upstart in edgy i can just install it and reboot and all should work ?10:33
zygaas soon as the system manages to run upstart10:33
zyganot after stuff happens (mounting, networking)10:33
zygaimbrandon: yeah10:34
jdongimbrandon: yeah, as long as you can reboot :P10:34
aigariusis knot2 really, really out? there is no link to its page from http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/10:34
jdongimbrandon: you're gonna have to take a hard reset :)10:34
zygaimbrandon: right, reboot doesn't work10:34
zygause shutdown -r or something, read readme.Debian10:35
jdongreboot -f10:35
jdongor alt+sysrq+b10:35

jdongcome on, alt+sysrq+b is more dramatic10:35

jdongsladen: uhh, that's... not gonna make the reiserfsck game any more fun :)10:39
jdongso, now with upstart, how should I use sysv init scripts?10:39
zygajdong: as you did before apparently10:40
jdongzyga: really?10:40
zygayeah10:40
jdongI thought there was some initctl thing I should use instaed?10:40
sladenjdong: as normal for the moment10:40
jdongcool10:40
sladenjdong: at the moment, upstart is just starting /etc/init.d/rc10:40
