| mjg59 | Keybuk: Query about functional module dependencies | 03:28 |
| mjg59 | Keybuk: tifm_711x binds to the PCI ID. tifm_sd provides the SD reader functionality and is required for the PCI device to be functional. This is trivially expressed in modprobe.d, but what package is the right place to put that? | 03:29 |
| Keybuk | shouldn't it either be a dep | 03:30 |
| Keybuk | or itself declare those aliases? | 03:30 |
| Keybuk | if not, module-init-tools can ship a modprobe.d file | 03:30 |
| === zul [n=chuck@CPE0006258ec6c1-CM000a73655d0e.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| mjg59 | Is there a reasonable way to express inter-module dependencies outside that? | 03:31 |
| mjg59 | tifm_sd relies on a ti flashmedia device | 03:31 |
| mjg59 | The only current driver we have is for a PCI device, but that's not inherently true | 03:31 |
| Keybuk | in the modules itself? | 03:32 |
| === mempf [n=mempf@S0106000129f69144.vs.shawcable.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| mjg59 | tifm_sd depends on tifm_711x by virtue of it currently being the only module that provides the symbols it needs | 03:32 |
| mjg59 | But tifm_711x has no logical dependency on tifm_sd | 03:32 |
| Keybuk | why doesn't it? | 03:33 |
| mjg59 | Why should it? | 03:34 |
| mjg59 | The part doesn't necessarily have an SD reader | 03:34 |
| Keybuk | what's a 711x then? | 03:35 |
| mjg59 | So from a driver point of view, it's sensible | 03:35 |
| mjg59 | A chip that can read various different flash formats | 03:35 |
| Keybuk | what's tifm_sd? | 03:35 |
| mjg59 | A driver for the SD portion of that class of chip | 03:35 |
| mjg59 | I've got a Sony which has the same chip, but only memory stick | 03:36 |
| mjg59 | It doesn't hurt to always load tifm_sd, but there's no reason for the driver to depend on it | 03:36 |
| Keybuk | so surely if you have a 711x device, you always need sd loaded? | 03:36 |
| mjg59 | No | 03:36 |
| Keybuk | meh, this smells of the "it's not a dependency, it's a recommends" type of bullshit :p | 03:37 |
| mjg59 | On the Sony, I'd want tifm_711x and tifm_ms (which isn't fully written yet, but still) | 03:37 |
| Keybuk | ahh | 03:37 |
| Keybuk | but you'd get sd anyway | 03:37 |
| mjg59 | Right | 03:37 |
| mjg59 | The driver author has no reason to introduce a dependency | 03:38 |
| Keybuk | we can add it in userspace easily enough | 03:38 |
| mjg59 | Yeah | 03:38 |
| Keybuk | install tifm_711x modprobe --ignore-install tifm_711x $CMDLINE_OPTS && { modprobe -Qb tifm_sd ; : ; } | 03:39 |
| Keybuk | in a modprobe.d file | 03:39 |

| Keybuk | SEJeff: hi | 04:20 |
| SEJeff | Keybuk: Evening. I would like to implement the RapidReboot spec for edgy+1 and know that it will need to play nicely with upstart seeing as how thats what ubuntu is moving towards. | 04:22 |
| Keybuk | RapidReboot spec? | 04:23 |
| Keybuk | let me bring that one up | 04:23 |
| SEJeff | Keybuk: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RapidReboot | 04:25 |
| Keybuk | yeah, was waiting for the wiki to kick into gear | 04:25 |
| wasabi | Interesting. | 04:26 |
| Keybuk | SEJeff: sweet. Not sure that it'd need to play much with upstart, tbh | 04:27 |
| SEJeff | Keybuk: It is basicly implementing kexec reboots for things like kernel upgrades, etc | 04:27 |
| SEJeff | Keybuk: And it would go perfectly with the idea of the Teardown spec just implemented | 04:27 |
| Keybuk | it seems kernel-level | 04:27 |
| SEJeff | Keybuk: kernel-level is above me but advanced shell scripting / python is not. | 04:28 |
| Keybuk | I mean that it seems that you'd be shutting down and starting the system AT the kernel level | 04:28 |
| Keybuk | i.e. you replace a call to reboot() with a call to kexec() | 04:29 |
| Keybuk | and what gets started as a result is a new kernel, that would start upstart again | 04:29 |
| SEJeff | Keybuk: Sort of. It isn't done at the kernel level though. It is done through the init scripts. Hence the need for upstart integration | 04:29 |
| wasabi | Might pass a "quick" option to upstart. | 04:29 |
| wasabi | As the first option to "shutdown". ;) | 04:29 |
| Keybuk | is there any change to the boot? | 04:29 |
| wasabi | Or something. ;) | 04:29 |
| Keybuk | or is it just to the final step in the shutdown? | 04:29 |
| wasabi | Kexec is a patch to the Linux kernel that allows you to boot directly to a new kernel from the currently running one. In the boot sequence described above, kexec skips the entire bootloader stage (the first part) and directly jumps into the kernel that we want to boot to. There i | 04:30 |
| wasabi | ^ sounds like it's done in the kernel to me. | 04:30 |
| Keybuk | right | 04:30 |
| SEJeff | Keybuk: the boot is identical but the reboot is different. | 04:30 |
| Keybuk | ok | 04:30 |
| Keybuk | how do you mean "the reboot is different"? different how? | 04:30 |
| SEJeff | wasabi: kexec is already integrated into the mainline AND ubuntu kernel | 04:30 |
| SEJeff | Keybuk: Just a sec... | 04:30 |
| === zul [n=chuck@CPE0006258ec6c1-CM000a73655d0e.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| wasabi | Nice. So, the work is done. Just need a user space utility to read grub's config. :) | 04:30 |
| wasabi | ANd send the first initramfs/kernel into kexec. | 04:30 |
| SEJeff | wasabi: actually, install kexec-tools from universe and everything you need is in place | 04:31 |
| wasabi | Sure. YOu just need to make the last task in the runlevel change call it. | 04:32 |
| SEJeff | /etc/init.d/reboot would need to be changed | 04:32 |
| SEJeff | Correct | 04:32 |
| Keybuk | right | 04:32 |
| Keybuk | so the way that shutdown upstart works (downshut? :p) is: | 04:32 |
| wasabi | Or however we figure out how to make upstart do that right. | 04:32 |
| wasabi | Not sure what that is. It sends reboot() on it's own doesn't it? | 04:32 |
| Keybuk | upstart emits a "shutdown" event (so apps can stop, etc.) | 04:32 |
| jdub | "I can't understand someone like Osama bin Laden understanding the joy of Hanukkah." - GWB | 04:32 |
| Keybuk | once that's been handled, upstart then emits a second event, that is specified by /sbin/shutdown | 04:32 |
| Keybuk | power-off for -P | 04:33 |
| Keybuk | system-halt for -H | 04:33 |
| Keybuk | reboot for -r | 04:33 |
| Keybuk | etc. | 04:33 |
| wasabi | AHh. | 04:33 |
| Keybuk | you can specify a custom event as well, and we can add options for others | 04:33 |
| Keybuk | so we could have a fast-reboot for /sbin/shutdown -Q now or something | 04:33 |
| === Burgundavia [n=corey@ubuntu/member/burgundavia] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Keybuk | then we just make sure any scripts with "on reboot" are also run for "on fast-reboot" | 04:33 |
| Keybuk | except the one that calls /sbin/reboot -f, that would be replaced by one that calls kexec | 04:33 |
| SEJeff | Right | 04:33 |
| wasabi | jdub, obviously the whole "muslim" thing threw him off. | 04:34 |
| Keybuk | the sysvinit analogy would be adding a runlevel 7 for a fast reboot | 04:34 |
| SEJeff | ok | 04:35 |
| wasabi | yay I fixed my fss enough to save some data | 04:35 |
| SEJeff | I won't be able to set up an edgy box for a few weeks until I complete my move to Cali for a new Sys Admin job but want to work on what I can here and now | 04:36 |
| Keybuk | how much does Windows restart on a shift-restart? | 04:36 |
| Keybuk | it's just the shell, isn't it? not the whole kernel? | 04:37 |
| jdub | windows 9x? | 04:37 |
| SEJeff | Keybuk: thats how I understand it | 04:37 |
| wasabi | shift-restart? | 04:37 |
| jdub | that was just 'win' | 04:37 |
| jdub | not reboot+dos | 04:37 |
| SEJeff | wasabi: it is a faster method of rebooting | 04:37 |
| wasabi | Thought windows just did a plain ol' power off reboot, but with a fast boot up time. | 04:38 |
| wasabi | (preload all previously used drivers into a big blob) | 04:38 |
| jdub | shift-restart still exists in nt land? | 04:38 |
| wasabi | Sure didn't think so. | 04:38 |
| jdub | (the turn off dialogue doesn't change labels for restart as it does for sleep) | 04:38 |
| SEJeff | wasabi: well that can't be correct because shift reboot doesn't do the bios post. That means it has to be a software only reboot | 04:38 |
| wasabi | How does one do "shift reboot" on NT? | 04:39 |
| wasabi | I see no such feature here. =/ | 04:39 |

| SEJeff | Keybuk: So I'm curious to the upstart design and how difficult you think it would be to do this | 04:43 |
| Keybuk | SEJeff: very easy | 04:43 |
| Keybuk | see above | 04:43 |
| SEJeff | Keybuk: As in can you think of any gotchas or things I should look into | 04:43 |
| Keybuk | nothing obvious | 04:44 |
| Keybuk | we already have three different "when you're done shutting down" things | 04:44 |
| Keybuk | I don't see how a fourth option hurts | 04:44 |
| SEJeff | Keybuk: Great news to hear. You might see my post to ubuntu-devel sometime earlier today about this. Feel free to reiterate the same thing. | 04:45 |
| Keybuk | I haven't caught up on u-d yet | 04:45 |
| SEJeff | Keybuk: good luck with that one :) | 04:49 |
| Keybuk | SEJeff: mostly I use the "Delete" key | 04:56 |
| wasabi | Keybuk, all that upstart stuff makes me wonder how shutdown would be optimally implemented in that case. | 04:59 |
| wasabi | You'd think you'd have everything set to "stop on shutdown" | 04:59 |
| wasabi | Oh wait n/m. Nothing changes. | 04:59 |
| wasabi | Hah. | 04:59 |
| wasabi | n/m. take back everything. forget I spoke. | 04:59 |
| Keybuk | "stop on shutdown" would be things that are teardown-exempt | 05:00 |
| Keybuk | "on reboot/halt/power-off" would be things like mounting the disks, etc. | 05:01 |
| wasabi | Yeah. For a second I had forgotten that shutdown and poweroff were seperate things. | 05:01 |
| Keybuk | this isn't entirely in stone yet, of course | 05:02 |

| Keybuk | wasabi: generally you register when you turn up, and your interest in particular specs | 05:26 |
| mjg59 | Lathiat: Airport codes rarely have a great deal to do with the city name | 05:26 |
| Lathiat | oh right | 05:26 |
| Lathiat | airport code | 05:26 |
| Keybuk | and then the scheduler ensures we talk about things of interest to you on the day that you are there | 05:26 |
| Keybuk | uh, I mean by that "you register when you are going to turn up, in launchpad, in advance" | 05:27 |
| mjg59 | Keybuk: Is the scheduler automatic now, or is there still someone stuck doing that all evening? | 05:27 |
| Keybuk | which always struck me as a public list of people whose house was going to be empty, but still | 05:27 |
| Keybuk | mjg59: jamesh's schedule-o-matic | 05:28 |
| wasabi | I doubt I'll be able to afford this either. | 05:28 |
| wasabi | Might turn out to not be practical. | 05:28 |
| Keybuk | wasabi: it'd be a shame, you'd be great to have there | 05:28 |
| Keybuk | how far do you have to travel? | 05:28 |
| wasabi | Not far at all. Tickets aren't a problem. | 05:28 |
| wasabi | Hotel is. ;) | 05:29 |
| wasabi | Also gf would insist she be brought along. | 05:29 |
| wasabi | Heh. | 05:29 |
| jamesh | the plan is to move the schedulomatic code into Launchpad, so that it is easier for multiple people to work on the schedule | 05:29 |
| Keybuk | I can suggest sponsorship for you, but not the partner | 05:29 |
| Keybuk | jamesh: btw, can we mark our attendance as private please? :p | 05:29 |
| jamesh | stalking problems? | 05:30 |
| Keybuk | (if I can't get my own partner sponsored ... etc.) | 05:30 |
| wasabi | Heh. I don't know what the requirements of "sponsorship" are. =) | 05:30 |

| Keybuk | after the recent "google calendar" scandal, they've added a condition to the insurance | 05:30 |
| Lathiat | er, haha | 05:30 |
| wasabi | Ya know, if I could find a place to stay, a room to share, somebody to split room with... I might be able to leave her at home. ;) | 05:30 |
| jamesh | Keybuk: file a bug | 05:30 |
| wasabi | I will have to see. And buy some roses. | 05:31 |
| jamesh | so they don't want you advertising to the world when your house will be empty? | 05:31 |
| mjg59 | wasabi: After what happened to Mez, that might be a bad idea | 05:31 |
| wasabi | ? | 05:31 |
| wasabi | Uh oh. Conference horror stories. | 05:31 |
| mjg59 | Oh, UBZ in Montreal | 05:31 |
| Keybuk | jamesh: exactly | 05:31 |
| Keybuk | jamesh: in fact, if I do so on a public web page, I am uninsured | 05:31 |
| wasabi | What's this insurance stuff? | 05:32 |
| jamesh | Keybuk: that'd be a pain if you were a speaker at a conference | 05:32 |
| jamesh | "come to $CONFERENCE and you may or may not see a talk by Keybuk" | 05:33 |
| Lathiat | indeed | 05:33 |
| Lathiat | haha | 05:33 |
| jdub | Keybuk: suck! | 05:33 |
| Keybuk | jamesh: the wording implies publishing of one's schedule | 05:33 |
| jdub | insurance companies are such parasites | 05:33 |
| Keybuk | though I'm sure they'd wriggle out of it in any case | 05:34 |
| Lathiat | so i wonder when the ubuntu+google rumor mill will start spinning again :) | 05:35 |

| Lathiat | google pcs, takign over the world | 05:37 |

| wasabi | Yeah, not making it. | 05:39 |
| wasabi | Can't do the hotel. That's really the deal breaker. | 05:39 |
| Lathiat | mm i love this i just searched for flights from here to SFO its $1600 + taxes... of $550 | 05:39 |
| Lathiat | which they dont give you the value of until you click through to start actually booking the flight | 05:39 |
| mjg59 | wasabi: Well, you can always apply for sponsorship | 05:40 |
| Keybuk | mjg59: asuffield can blow me | 05:40 |

| iwj | We can definitely conclude that the debconf key is being set to true. (Not TRUE.) | 12:32 |
| iwj | The question is, why ? | 12:32 |
| kagou | if /etc/fonts/fonts.conf exist i don't see why we have to set to true | 12:33 |

| Nafallo | [12:08] <doko> going offline again ... | 12:34 |

| agutierr | Ok | 12:36 |
| Kamion | iwj: I'm pretty certain it doesn't. Note however that debconf will be running in noninteractive mode (and thus db_input will return non-zero etc.). | 12:36 |
| Kamion | iwj: (it's not apt that runs the .config - it's debconf, via the sourcing of /usr/share/debconf/confmodule from the .postinst) | 12:36 |

| Mithrandir | is that needed for the live cd? | 12:41 |
| Kamion | iwj: oh, I think I see what's happening | 12:42 |
| Mithrandir | (shouldn't be?) | 12:42 |
| Kamion | iwj: somebody has fundamentally misunderstood how debconf runs | 12:42 |
| Kamion | Mithrandir: probably, yes - ubiquity will get upset otherwise | 12:42 |
| Kamion | (maybe) | 12:42 |
| Mithrandir | Kamion: oh well, I get to exercise the buildds a bit, then. | 12:42 |
| Kamion | actually ubiquity uses --no-upgrade so it might not matter | 12:42 |
| Kamion | iwj: so, the .config script actually gets run twice. (It MUST be idempotent.) | 12:43 |
| Kamion | iwj: The first time is during preconfiguration, before anything has been unpacked; so /etc/fonts/fonts.conf won't be there | 12:43 |
| agutierr | Kamion: do you know if ubuntu-installer with preseeds uses debian-installer ? | 12:44 |
| Kamion | iwj: The second time is while the package is being configured; IIRC conffiles are moved into place before the postinst is run, so /etc/fonts/fonts.conf is there | 12:44 |
| Kamion | agutierr: "uses" does not make sense, but the Ubuntu installer is a derivative of debian-installer | 12:44 |
| Nafallo | maswan: ping | 12:44 |
| agutierr | ok | 12:44 |
| fabbione | Kamion: i think he means for the preseed strings where you use debian-installer | 12:44 |

| pitti | carlos: cool | 12:49 |
| Kamion | unfortunately (well, in this particular case), db_input does not mark a question as seen if it was never shown (i.e. you aren't running at priority low) | 12:49 |

| carlos | zyga: are you still using those tarballs? | 12:51 |
| maswan | Nafallo: pong | 12:51 |
| iwj | The whole scheme is rather crazy. All of this copying a single bit into a complex encoding involving the existence or not of several files and symlinks. | 12:51 |
| zyga | carlos: not at the moment but I'll resume the old stuff after I'm finished with cnf | 12:52 |

| carlos | zyga: people.ubuntu.com/~carlos/language-packs is the new location | 12:52 |
| zyga | I hope you don't store every single one :) | 12:52 |
| Kamion | .config being run from .postinst is arguably a debconf bug, but (a) would require explicit support for preconfiguration in dpkg to fix and (b) is probably impossible to change now anyway. | 12:52 |
| iwj | No, I think it's fine. But it does explain the difficulty. | 12:53 |
| carlos | zyga: I remove them from time to time | 12:53 |
| pitti | carlos: hm, you use language-packs/dapper instead of dapper-updates | 12:53 |
| Kamion | (It has to be run from the .postinst because if you aren't using apt then preconfiguration won't happen.) | 12:53 |
| iwj | Yes. | 12:53 |
| zyga | carlos: right, thanks | 12:53 |
| iwj | Err, I see. | 12:53 |
| carlos | pitti: hmm.... then I did a mistake yesterday... anyway, I will fix it now in my side, sorry | 12:53 |
| Kamion | I think the basic problem is that its test for are-we-upgrading in the .config is wrong. | 12:53 |
| iwj | That's not readily fixable, I think. | 12:54 |
| Kamion | Find some other way to do that than testing for the conffile and it'll probably become idempotent. | 12:54 |
| iwj | Yes. | 12:54 |
| zyga | carlos: rosetta-edgy.tar.gz is -> current, right? | 12:54 |
| iwj | Err, it unconditionally sets the debconf key./ | 12:54 |
| carlos | pitti: fixed | 12:55 |
| iwj | Surely it would make more sense for it just to default the debconf key ? | 12:55 |
| carlos | zyga: is latest snapshot, it's not the on in our official archives | 12:55 |
| Kamion | iwj: I don't think it can. Boolean questions don't have a "not set yet" state, and as I said above it can't use the seen flag to help. | 12:55 |

| dholbach | rodarvus: thanks for your efforts! | 12:58 |
| rodarvus | thank YOU | 12:58 |
| Kamion | Unfortunately there's nothing that the postinst does that can easily be tested for in the config. What you really want to know is "has the postinst ever run". | 12:59 |
| dholbach | rodarvus: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Telepathy/InBzr | 12:59 |
| rodarvus | telepathy-inspector is developed by a friend of mine, and he asked for help getting it into Ubuntu ;) | 12:59 |
| seb128 | trying the current i386 desktop CD, bbl | 12:59 |
| dholbach | rodarvus: NICE | 12:59 |
| dholbach | rodarvus: it looks pretty cool | 12:59 |
| dholbach | rodarvus: and the packaging looked good to me too | 12:59 |
| dholbach | rodarvus: I just noted there was 0.3.0 upstream already | 12:59 |
| Kamion | iwj: There's one hack that would work. It would probably get things wrong if anyone ever blew away their debconf db, but at worst it would have the wrong default for the question on the next upgrade (and perhaps not even that) | 12:59 |
| janimo | dholbach: haven;'t looked yet, is telepathy relying on gnome libs or just has parts which work with gnome? | 12:59 |
| rodarvus | dholbach, it uses scons, which is rather different from anything autotools related | 01:00 |
| pygi | rodarvus, but scons rules, compared to autotools :) | 01:00 |
| rodarvus | version 0.2.5.1 had a few bugs (and one bug on the packaging) | 01:00 |
| rodarvus | which were fixed on 0.3 | 01:00 |
| Kamion | iwj: at the end of the postinst, 'db_fset fontconfig/enable_bitmaps processed true' | 01:00 |
| janimo | pygi: s/scons/anything/ | 01:00 |
| Kamion | (processed is an arbitrary identifier) | 01:00 |
| pygi | jamesh, hehe :) | 01:00 |
| dholbach | janimo: the framework uses glib, dbus, gstreamer stuff and its own libs - some frontends might make small use of gnome stuff (python, etc) | 01:00 |
| pygi | janimo, hehe* | 01:00 |
| pygi | dholbach, there is that C#/Mono telepathy client which even works :) | 01:01 |
| dholbach | rodarvus: ah nice, so it might be worth to get 0.3.0 in | 01:01 |
| iwj | Kamion: Hmmm. | 01:01 |
| dholbach | pygi: which one is that? | 01:01 |
| zyga | mvo: what is curentArchOnly for, in practice? | 01:01 |
| rodarvus | pygi, scons is nice - I just wish it had more plugins available by default (so you don't have to do it all by yourself) | 01:01 |
| Kamion | iwj: then in the config, replace 'if [ ! -f "/etc/fonts/fonts.conf" ] ' with 'if ! db_fget fontconfig/enable_bitmaps processed || [ "$RET" != true ] ' | 01:01 |
| zyga | mvo: since we have arch=all now | 01:01 |
| rodarvus | dholbach, its done already :) | 01:01 |
| dholbach | we should move telepathy discussion probably to #ubuntu-desktop | 01:01 |

| rodarvus | I'll create a product on LP for it too | 01:01 |

| mvo | zyga: just sugar, if we ever want to pre-caclculate it | 01:02 |
| Kamion | you might want to add a check for reconfiguration or something too, but the above should fix the live CD case with minimal fallout | 01:02 |
| Kamion | and in fact the general first-install case | 01:02 |
| pygi | janimo, you coming to Hungary, right? | 01:02 |
| zyga | mvo: it adds an dependency on dpkg | 01:02 |
| iwj | Kamion: Is this documented somwhere ? | 01:02 |
| iwj | I mean, this use of a `processed' flag ? | 01:02 |
| mvo | zyga: how do you mean? | 01:03 |
| zyga | mvo: you need dpkg and python2.4 to run that | 01:03 |
| zyga | but I'm just picky | 01:03 |
| janimo | pygi: I promised, so I think I am | 01:03 |
| Kamion | iwj: flags in general are documented in /usr/share/doc/debian-policy/debconf_specification.txt.gz | 01:03 |
| Kamion | iwj: the use of a made-up processed flag is an invention | 01:03 |
| pygi | janimo, nice, see you there perhaps ^_^ | 01:03 |

| iwj | Aha. | 01:04 |
| pygi | janimo, I am supposed to talk, don't know yet if I'll be able to attend :P | 01:04 |
| Kamion | It's just a way to transmit state around | 01:04 |
| Kamion | (As if fontconfig-config.* needs any more such ways ...) | 01:04 |
| iwj | Quite. | 01:05 |
| iwj | I think I'll do as you suggest but it seems to be just adding wrongness to an already very wrong thing. | 01:06 |
| === tortoise_ [n=tortoise@194.164.140.64] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Kamion | I agree | 01:07 |
| kagou | iwj: can you understand the if "/etc/fonts/fonts.conf" file exist -> # We are upgrading. No file for bitmaps means: -> enable_bitmaps="true" ? | 01:07 |
| Kamion | kagou: See near the end of the postinst where it doesn't create a symlink if enable_bitmaps is true because that's the fontconfig default | 01:07 |
| Kamion | it's convoluted, but at least consistently so | 01:08 |
| pygi | janimo, o yes, wanted to discuss something with you = xubuntu related, so when you get time ;) | 01:08 |
| janimo | pygi: -> /msg now | 01:08 |
| Kamion | iwj: the alternative would be to always create the symlink (uncomment the above bit in the .postinst) and use the existence of either symlink as a "we're upgrading" indicator | 01:09 |
| Kamion | iwj: you'd have to think very hard about upgrades, either way | 01:09 |
| janimo | Kamion: does usplash select the appropriate png depending on detected resoluion? So artworks should have all 4 or so variants? | 01:09 |
| kagou | Kamion: what is the default for edgy : to enable or not bitmaps ?! | 01:10 |
| Kamion | janimo: yeah, it iterates through the linked list of themes in the theme library and picks the first one that will fit in the specified resolution | 01:10 |
| Kamion | kagou: I neither know nor care; I'm just saying how to fix the code | 01:10 |
| Kamion | iwj: (There's an argument that depending on filesystem state is better than depending on debconf database state, so maybe the latter approach would be better.) | 01:11 |
| kagou | Kamion: you think that if we create 30-debconf-yes-bitmaps, fonts will be well rendered ? I think no. | 01:12 |
| kagou | may be i'm wrong i will test this... | 01:12 |
| Kamion | kagou: I don't know. Don't talk to me about how fonts will actually look. I'm just being a "how to use debconf correctly" person. | 01:12 |
| kagou | oh :) | 01:13 |
| Kamion | And it's obvious that the current code is incorrect (because the config script isn't idempotent across the two runs in a fresh installation with preconfiguration), regardless of what it's intending to do | 01:13 |
| Kamion | If we fix it to actually work right, then it'll be a lot easier to make the default swing either way | 01:14 |

| infinity | Actually, wait. dpkg doesn't do loop unrolling and reordering at all, does it? Doesn't apt do that? | 01:34 |
| Kamion | At configure time, apt passes a big load of packages to dpkg --configure and says "do it", as far as I know | 01:34 |
| infinity | I seem to recall a few days ago doing "dpkg -i foo.deb foolib.deb" and having to do two passes, since the first complainted about foo and then worked with foolib. | 01:35 |

| infinity | Heck if I can recall. :) | 01:35 |
| Kamion | if not, I'd say that's a dpkg bug. According to the comment above deferred_configure, it's meant to keep going round the packages in a loop until it's done as much as it can | 01:36 |

| Kamion | I don't see anything that handles Recommends or Suggests the way you mention, anyway | 01:37 |
| janimo | Kamion, what is the development section of the seeds? It is included in ship, but ship alreday has the components in devel. Is it used elsewhere too? | 01:37 |
| Kamion | janimo: it's intended to become a task for use by tasksel. It shouldn't be included in ship | 01:39 |
| Hobbsee | mjg59: have you heard of any other regressions with the alps hack in xserver-xorg-input-synaptics? I'm getting bug 47971, as are some other edgy people, it seems. | 01:39 |

| Kamion | the one starting with python-adns? | 01:40 |
| janimo | yes | 01:40 |

| Kamion | fabbione: could you add lvm2 to the list of problems at the end of https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GccSsp ? | 01:44 |
| infinity | Kamion: Oh, hrm. Seems a sane wishlist, then. And what I'd expectas resonable behaviour. | 01:44 |
| infinity | Kamion: Actually, maybe that behaviour's backward. Perhaps Enhances would be a better way to express that you should configure Y before X. Or something. | 01:45 |
| StevenK | infinity: Hey yeah, that actually makes sense. | 01:45 |
| Kamion | In the absence of that, I wonder how to deal with getting xserver-xorg configured before usplash. Maybe I should hack this into tasksel somehow. | 01:45 |
| Kamion | infinity: logically I'd expect Recommends to have similar ordering to Depends | 01:46 |
| janimo | is the alternate CD installer accessible? Does it make sense to have a11y in ship (as opposed to ship-live) in xubuntu? | 01:46 |
| Kamion | janimo: not yet | 01:46 |
| infinity | Kamion: Yeah, I'd expect Recommends to be similar to Depends, I'dexpect Suggests to be backwards, perhaps. I'm a bit fuzzy on that. | 01:46 |
| mvo | infinity: will you have time later to talk about the auto-dist-upgrade testing and where we could set it up? | 01:46 |
| infinity | mvo: Did we ever get past elmo's "I don't want that crap on the buildds" and perhaps get some extra DC hardware for it? | 01:47 |
| infinity | mvo: If not, we eitherneed to talk to elmo, or you and I can set it up outside the DC (I'm happy to host the PowerPC one, for instance) | 01:47 |
| mvo | infinity: ok. my memory is that he disliked the specific approach how it was implemented when I/we proposed it, but I may be wrong :) [I reworked it since then] | 01:48 |
| iwj | Kamion: I think I'll write down all of the states that this madness might encounter and see if they're distinguishable. | 01:48 |

| pitti | mvirkkil: then you are pretty screwed, I'm afraid | 02:28 |
| mvirkkil | A re-install will take me two days. | 02:28 |
| Kamion | aptitude reinstall '~i' (?) | 02:28 |
| Kamion | dunno if that will work | 02:28 |
| Kamion | or dpkg-reconfigure every package that has update-rc.d in its postinst | 02:28 |
| Kamion | you'd get quite a lot of questions, but you wouldn't have to re-download anything | 02:28 |
| mvirkkil | How about someone tar their /etc/rc?.d/ and send that to me? | 02:28 |
| Kamion | you're much safer doing the above | 02:28 |
| seb128 | would require somebody having your exact config | 02:29 |
| pitti | mvirkkil: that would cover different packages, etc. | 02:29 |
| Kamion | oh, 'dpkg-reconfigure --default-priority' to get fewer questions | 02:29 |
| seb128 | dpkg-reconfigure on the packages using update-rc.d should be fine | 02:29 |
| mvirkkil | how can I find out which packages those are? | 02:29 |
| seb128 | I did something like that and got my box booting again correct | 02:29 |
| seb128 | grep update-rc.d /var/lib/dpkg/info/*.postinst | 02:30 |
| Kamion | cd /var/lib/dpkg/info; grep -l update-rc.d *.postinst | 02:30 |

| Kamion | pitti: (dpkg-reconfigure can be given a list of packages) | 02:33 |
| pitti | right, there's certainly room for optimization | 02:33 |
| Kamion | probably doesn't matter for 56 packages | 02:33 |
| Kamion | smurf: is there a way to blacklist certain keysyms from certain keymaps in keymapper? | 02:34 |
| realist | Hobbsee: I don't quite understand how there can be any quality control, if anyone can change any package in the universe repository? | 02:34 |
| Hobbsee | realist: see #ubuntu-motu | 02:34 |
| Kamion | smurf: the X keymap for gb includes latin, which lists a lot of symbols on AltGr which aren't typically engraved on UK keyboards | 02:35 |
| Kamion | smurf: so if you just go through the keymap detector without knowing about this, you get US, because it asks if you have an "" key and of course you say no | 02:35 |
| Kamion | but actually AltGr-a gives | 02:36 |
| Mithrandir | Kamion: ISTR hacking keymapper to not look at level 3 or 4 maps. | 02:36 |
| Kamion | Mithrandir: and uploading the result? :) | 02:37 |

| zul | hi, can someone new the xen-image kernel generic stuff for me? | 02:37 |

| Mithrandir | I wonder why i386 + ppc seem to be oversized for Ubuntu, though. | 03:31 |
| ogra | apart from small things like pessulus or student-control-panel and some kb for ltspfs it shouldnt differ from dapper | 03:31 |
| ogra | i even dropped the linux-headers so i should have more space than ubuntu | 03:31 |
| Mithrandir | Kamion: any thoughts on what we can get rid of to save 5MB on i386 and 3MB on ppc? | 03:33 |
| Kamion | I can save a bit by kicking out the old console-keymaps udebs | 03:33 |

| pitti | tkamppeter: oh, not yet, will do in 10 minutes, ok:? | 03:33 |
| tkamppeter | ok | 03:33 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: wow, that merge was terribly difficult for starting to learn about Debian source packages :) | 03:34 |
| Mithrandir | Kamion: that needs a -meta upload, doesn't it? | 03:34 |
| Mithrandir | or can you just twiddle the archive? | 03:34 |
| Kamion | Mithrandir: Mark said we could drop the book and replace it with a link to the online content. Has that been done? | 03:35 |
| bluefoxicy | did I miss doko | 03:35 |
| Kamion | Mithrandir: no, installer seed, so it's just a seed change | 03:35 |
| Mithrandir | Kamion: I don't think it has happened, no. | 03:35 |
| dholbach | Kamion: no it wasn't - it'd need changes to example-content and to gnome-panel | 03:35 |
| dholbach | rodarvus: we have 'telepathy' project now | 03:35 |
| Kamion | dholbach: how long would that take? | 03:36 |
| dholbach | Kamion: I'm not sure where to find the online content | 03:36 |
| Kamion | eventually we'll be able to drop console-data and save some space, but that's not ready yet | 03:36 |
| Kamion | jono: could you point dholbach at the right place? see above | 03:36 |
| rodarvus | dholbach, I noticed, telepathy-inspector is there already :) | 03:36 |
| dholbach | Kamion: example-content: easy - seb128 did the gnome-panel change, so I need to look at it first | 03:36 |

| pitti | realist: a ML, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityUpdateProcedures | 03:39 |
| Kamion | it's a megabyte, and while it's nice, it doesn't seem required? | 03:39 |

| pitti | realist: yes, debdiffs are the prefered form of review | 03:39 |
| Kamion | ogra: the only way to determine that is by looking through the list | 03:39 |
| ogra | i'm looking through the log atm | 03:40 |

| Keybuk | it wouldn't surprise me if init is spinning at 100% CPU at that point with waitid() returning the same (dead) pid each time | 04:22 |
| Kamion | ogra: together with the removal of linux-generic from ship, that should get rid of basically all your oversizedness | 04:22 |
| ogra | yeah | 04:23 |
| ogra | updating the seeds now | 04:23 |
| tkamppeter | if getting rif of glib1.2/gtk1.2 is essentially important, we should perhaps extract a patch from the ESP GS SVN. If the unwished libs are small, we simply leave it this way in Edgy and let it simply come by itself on the way to 7.04. | 04:23 |
| Keybuk | fabbione: it makes some amount of curious sense that sparc and ppc64 would exhibit the same problem -- I believe the kernel code is similar? | 04:23 |
| fabbione | Keybuk: re.. | 04:24 |
| fabbione | dunno if the code is similar.. | 04:24 |
| iwj | kagou: No. Well, we have a workaround. I was just about to look at it again in fact as my ff build seems not to be dying at the first hurdle now. | 04:24 |
| fabbione | but one thing is sure... the same behaviour is seen in both .15 and .17 | 04:24 |
| Keybuk | fabbione: that would be consistent with jbailey's problem too | 04:24 |
| Keybuk | the same behaviour was seen with the dapper and edgy kernels | 04:24 |
| Kamion | tkamppeter: it's relatively unimportant in itself, so if there's nothing else that points to updating gs-esp as a good thing, we can leave it | 04:25 |

| infinity | pitti: Oh, the backports bug. Right. | 04:47 |
| pitti | infinity: yes, that and some manpage fixes | 04:48 |
| pitti | nothing earthshaking, I'd just like to get it off my hard disk and forget about it | 04:48 |
| infinity | pitti: You realise this will need to be fixed for dapper, right? | 04:48 |
| pitti | infinity: yes, it has a dapper task | 04:48 |
| pitti | infinity: but dapper-updates is frozen, too | 04:48 |
| infinity | Yeah, I know. | 04:49 |
| infinity | You can upload to it, though. We just aren't approving currently. :) | 04:49 |
| iwj | kagou: I think the intent is to install it with them disabled by default. | 04:50 |
| infinity | pitti: How are you detecting the target pocket? Just `dpkg-parsechangelog | grep ^Distribution`? | 04:51 |
| pitti | infinity: yes | 04:51 |
| pitti | infinity: I was going to ask you for the CurrentlyBuilding format | 04:52 |
| pitti | infinity: but then I saw that backports have an automatic changelog entry | 04:52 |
| infinity | pitti: CurrentlyBuilding doesn't have a distribution in it, but it certainly could. | 04:52 |
| infinity | pitti: Not much point in duplicating that info, however. | 04:52 |
| pitti | infinity: as long as we have the changelog entry, this seems more robust to me | 04:53 |
| infinity | As "robust" as anything in that package is. :) | 04:53 |
| infinity | I fear I made it scarier with my last upload, but it *does* seem to work, so I'll not jinx it. | 04:53 |
| pitti | mdz: infinity and I had a short discussion about adding a checkbox to the apport-gtk dialog and a gksudo wrapper to disable apport; do you consider that an edgy+1 feature or an usability bug fix? | 04:53 |

| ogra | Riddell, would it hurt to drop the menu-xdg dep from kdelibs ? | 04:55 |
| iwj | kagou, Kamion: After a bit of archeaology, it is now clear more or less why that weird code is there in the fontconfig-config.config but in fact we can just get rid of it. It serves no useful purpose for us. | 04:55 |
| iwj | So I will remove it. | 04:55 |
| iwj | As in, we can get rid of all of the efforts to look at symlinks and mess with the debconf db. | 04:57 |
| Kamion | Keybuk: did I remember to warn you about gtk2-engines? the binaries in NEW are bogus, I think - at least it should be checked whether they're supposed to be there before accepting | 04:57 |
| Kamion | iwj: ah, ok, excellent | 04:57 |
| Keybuk | Kamion: no, but I think I already saw them last night and postponed dealing with them | 04:57 |
| Kamion | ok, good | 04:57 |
| infinity | Kamion: They're not bogus, but the queue tool's handling of them is bogus. | 04:57 |
| Kamion | infinity: it doesn't display them properly because they existed in dapper, yes - but those binaries were supposed to be gone ... | 04:58 |
| kagou | great iwj. do that mean that by default 30-debconf-no-bitmaps will be installed ? | 04:58 |
| Kamion | oh, are they transitional maybe? | 04:58 |
| infinity | Kamion: I was leaving it there as an example of bug #59291 | 04:58 |

| iwj | I can explain more if you like. | 05:08 |
| Mithrandir | iwj: while I see that it is/can be annoying, I don't think it's worth holding up knot 3 for. | 05:08 |
| iwj | Fair enough. | 05:08 |
| Mithrandir | iwj: if you think otherwise, feel free to convince me. :-) | 05:08 |
| iwj | I'll upload after the release announcement then. | 05:09 |
| Mithrandir | you can upload it now, it'll just get stuck in the unapproved queue | 05:09 |
| iwj | I don't have an opinion really. I'm not one to hanker after prettiness :-). | 05:09 |
| iwj | Oh, good. | 05:09 |
| iwj | There was a note in your knot-3 message saying not to. | 05:09 |
| Mithrandir | yes, since FROZEN was broken for knot 2 and we didn't know if it was fixed or not. | 05:09 |
| Mithrandir | (actually, it wasn't fixed until today, UTC) | 05:09 |
| iwj | Ah, but it is fixed now. Excellent. | 05:10 |

| iwj | It may not fix a system that was already broken, though. | 05:17 |
| iwj | Because the broken system has the wrong values in debconf. | 05:17 |
| iwj | So to test it you should clear out the relevant debconf data and purge the fontconfig packages, and then install these. | 05:18 |
| Kamion | as long as (a) dpkg-reconfigure fixes it and (b) dapper->edgy upgrades DTRT then that's probably ok | 05:18 |
| iwj | dpkg-reconfigure will fix it and I'm confident about the dapper upgrades. | 05:18 |

| Keybuk | jdong|laptop: it was just easier to make readahead-watch do that | 05:30 |
| jdong|laptop | Keybuk: well, if you put a filelist-order call in S01readahead, that solves the reordering problem | 05:30 |
| jdong|laptop | and you're right, it does happen in nanoseconds :) | 05:31 |

| smurf | Kamion: is probably in the alias list as too-easy-to-confuse with lLiI | 05:31 |
| smurf | one moment | 05:31 |
| Keybuk | jdong|laptop: tbh, why not just put the ioctl code in readahead-list itself? | 05:31 |

| desrt | in any case i'm running 0.4-24 | 06:07 |

| Kamion | Seveas: yes, I know | 06:08 |
| Kamion | desrt: you can probably work around the problem by changing the resolution in /etc/usplash.conf | 06:08 |
| desrt | Kamion; well. i'm willing to help if you have questions | 06:08 |
| pitti | mdz: the backend is already there (/etc/default/apport), it just doesn't have a GUI | 06:08 |
| desrt | Kamion; dpkg-reconfigure my image? | 06:08 |
| Kamion | desrt: just edit it | 06:09 |
| desrt | how does usplash read the file before the root filesystem is mounted? | 06:09 |
| Kamion | I bet it's 640x480 at the moment; change it to whatever your X resolution is | 06:09 |
| Kamion | desrt: after you edit the file, run update-initramfs -u | 06:09 |
| Kamion | that copies it into the initramfs | 06:09 |
| desrt | Kamion; what's what i meant by dpkg-reconfigure :p | 06:09 |

| desrt | skinny-tall-buntu: linux for people who aren't fat | 06:15 |
| Kamion | that I don't know about, and it could just be an "adjust your monitor" thing | 06:15 |
| Kamion | modern monitors often being per-mode adjustable | 06:16 |
| desrt | uh | 06:16 |
| Seveas | Kamion, no, it's the "your theme has only 4:3 and 16:9 images and your monior is neither" thing that causes this | 06:16 |
| desrt | it's a laptop LCD screen :p | 06:16 |
| desrt | i guess it picked 16:9 | 06:16 |
| desrt | then scaled it | 06:16 |
| desrt | better to pick 16:9 then crop it, imo | 06:16 |
| Seveas | it does neither | 06:17 |
| Seveas | the scaling is done by your monitor | 06:17 |
| pygi | sivang, ?! | 06:17 |
| desrt | Seveas; it's running in the native resolution of my monitor | 06:17 |
| desrt | 1280x800 | 06:17 |
| Seveas | no | 06:17 |
| Seveas | it's running in the svga mode closest to it | 06:17 |
| desrt | oh. this is bad. | 06:18 |
| === fnordus [n=dnall@24.85.128.203] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Seveas | and svga as used by usplash only does 4:3 | 06:18 |
| Nafallo | 16:10 then :-) | 06:18 |
| desrt | Seveas; if that were the case then it would be stretched out widthwise | 06:18 |
| Seveas | but there are images that are 16:9 but scaled to 4:3 in the standard themes | 06:18 |
| desrt | not heightwise | 06:18 |
| Seveas | and usplash will use those for 1280x800 | 06:18 |
| desrt | oh. ok. i get it. | 06:19 |
| desrt | so you have intentionally tall images | 06:19 |
| desrt | if a 'widescreen' reso is detected | 06:19 |
| desrt | because you know that the laptop will stretch them back out again | 06:19 |
| Seveas | indeed | 06:19 |
| desrt | but my laptop doesn't stretch far enough | 06:19 |
| desrt | that's clever -- but very evil :) | 06:19 |
| Seveas | indeed again | 06:19 |
| sladen | Seveas: most of the manufactuers include extra widescreen VESA modes (if it's a laptop) | 06:20 |
| desrt | sladen; 915resolution says otherwise :) | 06:20 |
| Seveas | theoretically it could support 16:10 and 14:9 too, but that really needs someting generic in usplash | 06:20 |
| Seveas | which will NOT be edgy material | 06:20 |
| desrt | Seveas; just so we're clear -- you have to fix this bug :p | 06:20 |
| Seveas | yes | 06:20 |
| desrt | it's damn ugly :) | 06:20 |

| === dsas [n=dean@host86-129-8-235.range86-129.btcentralplus.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| sladen | desrt: 915resolution has nothing to do with VESA modes | 06:22 |
| desrt | sladen; i see. | 06:23 |
| desrt | Seveas; i guess one workaround would be for me to tell usplash that i have 1024x768 | 06:23 |
| desrt | then i'll get a wide image instead of a tall one | 06:23 |
| Seveas | indeed | 06:23 |
| desrt | which will probably look a bit better :p | 06:24 |
| sladen | desrt: if your X is running at 1280x800 or some such, then usplash should be able to pick 1024x768 and hope that it's being scaled to 1280x800 and adjust (squeeze) the video inversely | 06:24 |
| desrt | sladen; right. i want to shortcircuit that intelligence and have it use 1024x768 directly (thus avoiding the squeeze) | 06:25 |
| desrt | ya. looks a bit better wide instead of tall :) | 06:26 |
| sladen | desrt: do you /have/ an 1280x800 (or whatever) VESA mode? | 06:27 |
| desrt | sladen; i'd imagine not? | 06:27 |
| sladen | desrt: then you're not going to get it without scaling... | 06:27 |
| desrt | sladen; but a 3rd scaling factor could be added | 06:27 |
| sladen | desrt: could be. they'd all just get scaled together | 06:28 |
| desrt | or better yet, the installer could do custom scaling at ramfs-image-build-time | 06:28 |

| Kamion | licio: no, we removed that because we aren't shipping an MTA by default so mailx is pointless | 07:42 |

| fabbione | Keybuk: if you can write me a detailed description of the kernel problem, i can talk to David S Miller and see to get it fixed | 08:08 |
| Keybuk | fabbione: it's not sparc-specific | 08:09 |
| Keybuk | put simply; do_wait() (called by sys_waitid) takes care to zero the struct siginfo if WNOHANG is to be returned and there's no child waiting | 08:09 |
| === ogra_ [n=ogra@p548AD689.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Keybuk | this means that waitid() returns 0 and you check whether info.pid != 0 | 08:09 |
| Keybuk | compat_sys_waitid() returns early without copying if WNOHANG ... so whatever values were passed into that struct are returned, which may be the last waitid or random data | 08:10 |
| fabbione | Keybuk: ok.. well it might be worth to talk to david and see.. perhaps he can push a fix upstream | 08:10 |
| Keybuk | the man page for waitid does say, hidden in the notes, that you must zero the struct yourself if you call with WNOHANG | 08:10 |
| Keybuk | so it was definitely an upstart "bug" | 08:10 |
| fabbione | ah ok | 08:10 |
| Keybuk | but I'd also say that it's a kernel bug too for having a silly inconsistency | 08:10 |
| Keybuk | I've tested and committed the fix (installed on that machine) | 08:11 |
| fabbione | perfect | 08:11 |
| Keybuk | and have asked Mithrandir for a freeze exception | 08:11 |
| fabbione | can i powerit off? | 08:11 |
| fabbione | it's not a blocker for knot-3 | 08:11 |
| fabbione | sparc can wait the next.. | 08:11 |
| fabbione | i am not too fuzzy about that | 08:11 |
| ogra_ | is there a next ? | 08:11 |
| Keybuk | sure | 08:11 |
| ogra_ | i thought next is beta | 08:11 |
| fabbione | ogra: i am happy to test the fix with tomorrow's netinstall | 08:12 |
| Keybuk | we don't install by 64-bit-kernel-on-32-bit-userland by default, no? | 08:12 |
| fabbione | i don't need a cd for that | 08:12 |
| ogra_ | ah | 08:12 |
| Keybuk | other than sparc | 08:12 |
| fabbione | i think we do it only for sparc and hppa | 08:12 |
| fabbione | and ppc64 | 08:12 |
| ogra_ | there are users that use a hack to install amd64 64bit ernels in 32bit userland | 08:12 |
| fabbione | ogra: hacks are not supported.. | 08:13 |
| ogra_ | i know | 08:13 |
| Keybuk | is ppc64 a supported arch? | 08:13 |
| fabbione | these are supported configs that we ship | 08:13 |
| fabbione | yes ppc64 is | 08:13 |
| Keybuk | I thought we just did powerpc and let them change the kernel if they wanted? | 08:13 |
| fabbione | we ship kernel and 32 bit userland | 08:13 |
| fabbione | nope | 08:13 |
| fabbione | it's automatically detected by yaboot | 08:13 |
| ogra_ | but thats something very typical for ltsp users that want the 64bit kernel and flash support ... | 08:13 |
| Keybuk | oh | 08:13 |
| fabbione | and it boots/installs the right kernel | 08:13 |
| Keybuk | then it's probably more critical then :p | 08:13 |

| Kamion | 21:51 < Mithrandir> ogra: sure. It's edubuntu and nothing else which breaks, which makes me slightly less worried. :-) | 10:29 |

| Seveas | ogra: ubiquity doesn't write an usplash config and the default themes don't support 640x480 | 10:31 |
| Seveas | it's a bug in usplash that it will try to use them | 10:31 |
| ogra | yep | 10:32 |
| Seveas | fixing now | 10:32 |
| Kamion | huh? I fixed that already, just not uploaded | 10:33 |
| Seveas | ah | 10:33 |
| Kamion | if it's the usplash bug I think you mean | 10:33 |
| Kamion | that it tries to use the theme anyway and lets bogl/svgalib fail? | 10:33 |
| Seveas | bzr is still pulling - so can't look | 10:33 |
| Kamion | the ubiquity bug is fixed in bzr, but there's a more fundamental and difficult installation ordering bug in d-i | 10:33 |
| Kamion | need to fiddle with tasksel a certain amount to make that work smoothly | 10:34 |
| Kamion | fortunately said fiddling is useful to have anyway - it'll make stuff like media changes during the tasksel preinst work properly in Debian | 10:34 |

| seb128 | Keybuk: my desktop looked like edgy was hanging on boot (black screen with only a cursor in the top left corner), happens without the splash and the quiet boot options too. I figured after some reboot that it was doing a fsck (probably after n mount). Is that upstart to blame to not mention what is going on? | 11:01 |
| Keybuk | the spec that says "ve vill not have ze boot messages" is to blame | 11:01 |
| seb128 | have the box stucked on a black screen for 10 mins is a bug though | 11:02 |
| Keybuk | 10 mins? | 11:02 |
| Keybuk | probably fsck mount count or something? | 11:02 |
| seb128 | yeah, the partition is not small | 11:02 |
| Keybuk | you'd get the same effect with usplash | 11:02 |
| Keybuk | it'd just sit there at a static graphic | 11:03 |
| seb128 | "figured after some reboot that it was doing a fsck (probably after n mount)" | 11:03 |
| mjg59 | Keybuk: No, usplash would drop out to the fsck text | 11:03 |
| seb128 | usplash dropped after some secs | 11:03 |

| Keybuk | mjg59: not it wouldn't | 11:04 |
| Keybuk | mjg59: the fsck text would have been lost under usplash while tty8 was the active, and svgalib was owning it | 11:04 |
| Keybuk | and usplash would have left them at an empty tty1 | 11:04 |
| seb128 | ivoks: that's not a solution, do you really expect users to do that? | 11:04 |

| Keybuk | mdz: that's what I thought | 11:33 |

| infinity | Makes sense for desktops, I'm still unconvinced for systems without a splash. | 12:00 |
| Nafallo | Keybuk: maybe you could implement a third word? :-) | 12:00 |
| Keybuk | infinity: *shrug* like I said earlier, most grown up UNIXes don't bother with the 30 lines of init script output either | 12:00 |
| Keybuk | the most annoying thing about those 30 lines is that an error message in the first 6 is lost | 12:00 |
| Nafallo | something like "messages" :-) | 12:00 |
| infinity | Keybuk: There you go, you just defined 3 states, problem solved. :) quiet: no output, verbose: Oh god, too much, neither: give me init and no kernel. :) | 12:01 |
| Keybuk | infinity: that involves a kernel patch, no? :p | 12:01 |
| infinity | Keybuk: Yes. We're hardly against that. :) | 12:01 |
| Keybuk | the boot-message-logging spec actually defines several levels | 12:01 |
| Keybuk | the problem is that it's unimplementable for edgy | 12:01 |
| Seveas | crackful | 12:01 |
| Keybuk | for edgy, we can implement two levels. "on" and "off" | 12:01 |
| Keybuk | actually, that isn't entirely true | 12:02 |
| Keybuk | we can implement three if we change the kernel | 12:02 |
| Keybuk | though colin wants a verbose option to mean "ignore the earlier quiet option" | 12:02 |
| Keybuk | tbh though, I don't see the win of three levels | 12:03 |
| Nafallo | Keybuk: so "messages" then :-) | 12:03 |
| Seveas | we could name the 3rd level infinity | 12:03 |
| === fsmw [n=Fernando@200.72.33.77] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Keybuk | Debian always traditionally spat the kernel output over the init script messages | 12:03 |
| Keybuk | and never had a problem with that | 12:03 |
| Keybuk | a minimal/silent grown-up boot is the logical opposite to that | 12:04 |
| Nafallo | well, people with Debian knows that, we have already diverged from that :-) | 12:04 |
| Keybuk | mdz: what happened to getting rid of the grub messages? | 12:05 |
| mdz | Keybuk: it's done, but we don't do grub-install on upgrade | 12:05 |
| infinity | Keybuk: I never used to mind the kernel and init both spewing together, but modern kernels have become MUCH more verbose. | 12:05 |
| mdz | Keybuk: zul did it | 12:05 |
| mdz | I think we should change the message though | 12:06 |
| Keybuk | "the message" ? | 12:06 |
| mdz | it prints "Booting the operating system now" | 12:06 |
| mdz | so that something is on the screen while the kernel loads | 12:06 |
| mdz | I think it should just say "Starting up" or so | 12:06 |
| mdz | too much technical jargon | 12:07 |
| Nafallo | maybe we should ask mpt what he would like? :-) | 12:07 |
| Keybuk | infinity: I don't think that's true ... I think that modern kernels just load modules at different times | 12:07 |
| mdz | I will ask his opinion | 12:07 |
