| yogurtthewise | there's an unofficial deb pkg I started from, it's very easy, but it diverges from debian repos, so dunno if it can actually be accepted by ubuntu | 12:13 |

| jamadagni | @Nafallo. I've got multiverse disabled from my repo list, but i still see it in adept | 01:21 |
| Nafallo | jamadagni: do apt-cache madison gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse to see for yourself. if you can see it, it might be cause you have it installed? :-) | 01:22 |

| Nafallo | no | 01:27 |
| Nafallo | the source is in multiverse for dapper aswell | 01:27 |
| Nafallo | according to the urls you just sent... | 01:27 |
| Nafallo | or rather... the source for -3 is lacking... | 01:28 |
| jamadagni | the pool is common for all distros, no? | 01:29 |
| Nafallo | but see archive.ubuntu.com. it's the in-mirror that's wrong :_) | 01:29 |

| Nafallo | ooh. a.u.c has them in both places... interesting ;-) | 01:30 |

| jamadagni | what? | 01:31 |
| jamadagni | ftp://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/g/gst-plugins-ugly-multiverse0.10 | 01:31 |
| infinity | If it's in two components, that would mean it had an override change recently (and is making a smooth transition from A to B) | 01:31 |
| Nafallo | infinity: where recently is in dapper? :-) | 01:32 |
| infinity | Oh. I see. It was in universe in dapper, andin multiverse in edgy. | 01:32 |
| jamadagni | confirmed at ftp://se.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/g/gst-plugins-ugly-multiverse0.10 | 01:32 |
| jamadagni | if it was in universe in dapper then why is it labeled multiverse? | 01:32 |
| jamadagni | i mean, in the package name itself? | 01:33 |
| jamadagni | is infinity one of the ubuntu devels? | 01:33 |
| Nafallo | infinity: where are the sourcecode for the latest dapper version? -3? :-) | 01:33 |
| Nafallo | jamadagni: he is one of the archive gods :-) | 01:33 |
| jamadagni | meaning? | 01:33 |
| infinity | Nafallo: That's a far more interesting question. | 01:34 |
| jamadagni | he maintains the archives or is just highly knowledgeable about them? | 01:34 |
| infinity | jamadagni: yes. | 01:34 |
| Nafallo | jamadagni: both of that I would say :-) | 01:34 |
| infinity | Nafallo: Err, wait. -2 should be the latest dapper version. | 01:35 |
| jamadagni | perhaps -3 was a backport or something | 01:35 |
| infinity | Nafallo: -3 is an obsolete edgy version. | 01:35 |
| Nafallo | infinity: ehm, okey. so that's a bug that the binaries is in the archive then :-). | 01:35 |

| infinity | Nafallo: It doesn't. The thing you just found is a bug. | 01:46 |
| Nafallo | infinity: want me to report it against something or do you handle it? :-) | 01:47 |
| infinity | Nafallo: I'm already on it. | 01:47 |
| Fujitsu | infinity, you mean it's not meant to. It obviously does :P | 01:47 |
| Nafallo | nice thanks :-) | 01:47 |
| infinity | Fujitsu: Well, no. In this case, it looks like a hideous DB inconsistency caused the sources to be removed because we thought the binaries were removed (actually, the whole sourcepackage release seems to have gone missing), but the binaries stayed on-disk. | 01:48 |
| infinity | Fujitsu: I'm not prepared to commit to this being a code bug yet, it could have been someone's manual futzing in the DB gone horribly wrong. | 01:48 |
| Fujitsu | Why would anybody have been manually screwing around with the DB? | 01:48 |
| infinity | (Either way, it's a bug in the archive, obviously) | 01:48 |
| Fujitsu | A pretty silly thing to do... | 01:49 |
| infinity | Fujitsu: Happens all the time, really. | 01:49 |

| sistpoty | infinity: thx :) | 02:19 |
| jamadagni | that's all understandable | 02:19 |
| jamadagni | but what is this extra? | 02:19 |
| jamadagni | which component does it go under? | 02:19 |
| jamadagni | sorry | 02:19 |
| jamadagni | obviously there are "extra" packages under all four components | 02:19 |
| jamadagni | but what can we expect to be there, i mean, what kind of pakages? | 02:20 |
| infinity | jamadagni: Regular overrides only handle section and priority. extraoverrides are for "other stuff" we want to override in Packages.gz, like Origin, Bugs, Tasks, etc. | 02:20 |
| jamadagni | man:dpkg-scanpackages tells me that override files provide information related to the arrangement of files for release | 02:21 |
| jamadagni | extra overrides doesn't come under that, right? | 02:21 |
| infinity | dpkg-scanpackages is a bit outdated in that respect. :) | 02:21 |
| jamadagni | oh then what else are overrides for? | 02:22 |
| jamadagni | origins, bugs and tasks obviously | 02:22 |
| infinity | It still assumes an old-style archive layout, where packages live in the mirror under section and priority. | 02:22 |
| jamadagni | oh of course that is not the case now, right? | 02:22 |
| infinity | But overrides are used now for overriding various headers in the Packages file (as seen in "apt-cache show <package>") | 02:22 |
| jamadagni | ok i tried apt-cache show knemo and i get the headers for that package | 02:23 |
| jamadagni | what would the override change? | 02:23 |
| === pips1_ [n=philipp@253.159.78.83.cust.bluewin.ch] has left #ubuntu-devel ["Ex-Chat"] | ||
| infinity | jamadagni: In that case, probably theonly things overridden are "Origin" and "Bugs" | 02:24 |
| infinity | jamadagni: A more interesting one would be something that's in a task, like metacity. | 02:24 |
| jamadagni | i don't comprehend - tal | 02:24 |
| infinity | jamadagni: That will have a Task header added, with "ubuntu-desktop, edubuntu-desktop" | 02:24 |
| jamadagni | sorry - i don't comprehend task | 02:25 |
| infinity | jamadagni: And, of course, if the binary package's priority/section don't match with what we (the archive admins) want, that will be overridden too. | 02:25 |
| jamadagni | google does not help here | 02:25 |
| infinity | jamadagni: Tasks are usedby the installer and tasksel to select groups of packages. | 02:25 |
| jamadagni | oh like metapacakges | 02:25 |
| infinity | In our case, we have a 1:1 mapping between some tasks and metapackages, yes. | 02:26 |
| infinity | But tasks don't have to have a corresponding metapackage (and we have some that don't) | 02:26 |
| jamadagni | so tasks are developer-side only? | 02:26 |
| infinity | For instance: | 02:26 |
| infinity | (base)adconrad@cthulhu:~$ apt-cache show mysql-server-5.0 | grep ^Task | 02:26 |
| infinity | Task: lamp-server | 02:26 |
| jamadagni | ok task = purpose of a package | 02:27 |
| infinity | So, the installer can cleverly use that task to install a LAMP server. | 02:27 |
| infinity | Not a purpose, no. It's a package grouping. | 02:27 |
| jamadagni | right | 02:27 |
| jamadagni | so when i say "give me a lamp-server", it installs all the packages marked with task=lamp-server and presto | 02:27 |
| jamadagni | i have a lamp-server | 02:27 |

| bluefoxicy | you're in charge of the buildd's right? | 02:45 |
| === mgalvin [n=mgalvin@ubuntu/member/mgalvin] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| infinity | bluefoxicy: Yes. | 02:46 |
| rodarvus | airlied just made a comment on bug #34435, I would appreciate your comment on it | 02:46 |
| Ubugtu | Malone bug 34435 in gtk-engines "Cairo and ATI RENDER extension cause scrambled buttons in UbuntuLooks" [Unknown,Unconfirmed] http://launchpad.net/bugs/34435 | 02:46 |
| bluefoxicy | OK, I've been told a number of things, most recently that there's absolutely no gcc wrappers and no global CFLAGS/LDFLAGS/etc on the buildd, this is correct? | 02:46 |
| infinity | bluefoxicy: For edgy, that's correct, yes. | 02:46 |
| bluefoxicy | alright | 02:46 |
| rodarvus | he recommends us to just skip the patch (which he commited to git) and use 6.5.8.1 instead | 02:47 |
| bluefoxicy | Other stuff I wanted to talk about is setting a couple options default for Edgy+1, is there a meeting I should show up at or should I talk to doko or you? | 02:47 |
| === zenrox [n=zenrox@pool-71-120-239-162.spknwa.dsl-w.verizon.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| rodarvus | (but imho it would be safer to apply the patch for now, ask users to test it, and then, without rush, consider updating the ati driver to the above mentioned version) | 02:47 |
| infinity | bluefoxicy: We decided in Paris that compiler defaults belongin the compiler spec file (we had some VERY long arguments about it, surrounding the stack-protector change), so yeah, discussing itin #ubuntu-toolchain would be best, and you'll want doko present. | 02:49 |
| bluefoxicy | infinity: nods. When is doko normally around? He's hard to come by :) | 02:49 |
| infinity | bluefoxicy: Ifit's contentious, you'll want to set up a meeting and invite a few other key people who like to argue about such things (me and mdz, perhaps) | 02:49 |
| infinity | bluefoxicy: He tends to be around during standardish European work hours. | 02:50 |
| bluefoxicy | infinity: what would be contentious? | 02:50 |
| bluefoxicy | things with stability/performance trade-offs? | 02:50 |
| infinity | bluefoxicy: Anything that (like -fstack-protector) has a high chance of breaking more than a few packages, or something that will cause performance hits, etc. | 02:50 |
| rodarvus | doko is on OOoCon today (and I guess for a few days still) | 02:51 |
| bluefoxicy | ah Hmm european work hours I'mat gmt-5 ... it's 1am | 02:51 |
| infinity | bluefoxicy: If it's security-related (as many of the things you tend to look at are), you may also want to bring pitti along for the ride. | 02:51 |
| rodarvus | it will quite probably be hard to find him | 02:51 |
| bluefoxicy | infinity: it's performance stuff, some of meeks' work went into next mainline glibc/ld and I want it enabled by default due to the officially acclaimed 50% application load speed-up | 02:52 |
| bluefoxicy | and a couple nit-picky things that I bring up every several months anyway | 02:52 |
| infinity | bluefoxicy: pitti is also in Europe-land. mdz is all over the map, depending on which hotel he's in this week, and I never sleep. | 02:52 |
| bluefoxicy | haha | 02:52 |
| mdz | rodarvus: I'm subscribed to that bug and have been commenting already | 02:52 |
| Nafallo | lol | 02:52 |
| Nafallo | all to true :-) | 02:52 |
| rodarvus | mdz, yes, I know | 02:53 |
| mdz | rodarvus: if you're asking about dapper, we're not even going to discuss it until the fix has been working well in edgy for an extended period | 02:53 |
| bluefoxicy | infinity: I'll keep an eye open in #-toolchain then | 02:53 |
| mdz | he's provided a patch which should be able to go into edgy immediately | 02:53 |
| rodarvus | sure, seems reasonable | 02:53 |
| === bluefoxicy gets back to trying to finish the Web site for his allocator... deadline is this friday. | ||
| desrt | bluefoxicy_alloc (sizeof (int)); | 02:56 |
| bluefoxicy | desrt: no, replacement for crappy Ptmalloc in glibc | 02:56 |
| desrt | ptmalloc is glibc's current allocator? | 02:57 |
| bluefoxicy | desrt: i'm _really_ going to try to finish this by december but we all know how that goes *glares at the other 15 sourceforge projects that don't have any code* | 02:57 |
| bluefoxicy | desrt: yes | 02:57 |
| desrt | bluefoxicy; you should see if glib would accept your code | 02:57 |
| bluefoxicy | Last I looked it was, in fact Wolfram Gloger's home page says it is.... http://www.malloc.de/en/ | 02:57 |
| desrt | bluefoxicy; that would probably provide MONTHS of amusement | 02:58 |

| bluefoxicy | desrt: that's probably a really bad idea ;) | 02:58 |
| desrt | bluefoxicy; i'm sure people are calling free() instead of g_free() and g_free() instead of free() everywhere | 02:58 |
| desrt | bluefoxicy; and we'd find out really really quickly :) | 02:59 |
| bluefoxicy | desrt: yeah with my tiered micro-heap design you'd find out really, REALLY quickly | 02:59 |
| bluefoxicy | the structure isn't even remotely the same | 02:59 |
| desrt | :) | 02:59 |
| bluefoxicy | hell, the structure isn't remotely the same between allocations of 128 bytes and allocations of 129 bytes | 02:59 |
| bluefoxicy | allocations of 3967 bytes and 4091 bytes act the same, but allocations of 3968 bytes or 4096 bytes act like allocations of 128KiB | 03:00 |
| bluefoxicy | desrt: is g_free() and g_malloc() any more than a wrapper around malloc() anyway? | 03:01 |
| desrt | bluefoxicy; in theory yes | 03:01 |
| desrt | bluefoxicy; in implementation, no | 03:01 |

| Kamion | it's unlikely to be particularly vmware-speciffic | 09:28 |

| Kamion | CarlFK: right, that's what I would have said if you hadn't disappeared :) | 09:41 |
| Kamion | CarlFK: 96MB is more than enough for an alternate install | 09:41 |
| iwj | I mean: you say this gtkmozembed breakage is a problem with breezy 1.0 -> 1.5 but isn't the gtkmozembed breakage just the same in our 1.0 (ie current breezy) and our 1.5 (ie current dapper) ? | 09:41 |
| pitti | iwj: I asked myself the same question; but ISTR that all firefox rdepends broke after installing 1.5 in breezy | 09:42 |
| iwj | OIC, like that. I thought you meant the pygtk crasher. | 09:42 |
| Burgundavia | iwj: 1.5 is not abi compatibile with 1.0 and thus you need to recompile every gecko using app | 09:43 |

| iwj | pitti: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~ian/d/firefox/ is what I have. The diff.gz is quite likely to apply without too many problems to 1.5.0.6. | 09:50 |
| Kamion | it's preseedable and everything | 09:50 |
| pitti | iwj: ah, thanks | 09:52 |
| Kamion | Mithrandir: I think you should find that if you stop bind-mounting the filesystems then ubiquity will just cope | 09:53 |
| Kamion | Mithrandir: IIRC the last time I checked the filesystems were (presumably accidentally) not properly bind-mounted anyway ... | 09:53 |
| Mithrandir | Kamion: they _should_ be properly bind-mounted now. I'll just bind-mount them if the user requests it with a command line option, then | 09:54 |
| Kamion | yeah, that should be fine post-knot-3 | 09:54 |
| CarlFK | Kamion: the screen repaint (or whatever) is clearing VT shell - how can I kill the installer? | 09:54 |
| Kamion | as I say, we pretty much need to move to that with stacked filesystems anyway; /rofs as "just base and desktop" doesn't make much sense in the DVD world | 09:54 |

| Mithrandir | Kamion: you won't have /rofs, you won't have anything but / which is unionfs then and you'll have to mount and copy yourself, in the right order. But you probably need that anyway, so it should be fine | 09:55 |
| pitti | iwj: I would appreciate if we could both work on it, especially since we need to update mozilla and tbird, too | 09:56 |

| Kamion | CarlFK: I think the installer is getting killed and then respawning on the current tty | 09:59 |

| Keybuk | Kamion: everyone, simultaneously, usually | 10:00 |
| Kamion | aye, and generally it's almost unfixable without making the problem worse | 10:01 |
| Kamion | I really wish there were an official "here is how you use update-alternatives correctly from maintainer scripts" document | 10:01 |
| Kamion | some years back, I went through all the maintainer scripts on my system and found no fewer than eight different convention | 10:02 |
| Keybuk | A. Don't | 10:02 |

| Kamion | s | 10:02 |
| Kamion | I collected this together and filed it as a policy bug, saying "please tell us all which one to use" | 10:02 |

| Keybuk | fs | 10:02 |

| Kamion | Keybuk: wasn't the console always black and white? :) or do you mean the svga thing? | 10:06 |
| Kamion | Keybuk: I haven't touched the svga backend | 10:06 |
| Keybuk | Kamion: I mean that all colour has gone from it | 10:07 |
| Kamion | infinity: that's console-setup; I may change the default for Latin away from terminus | 10:07 |
| infinity | I've been getting the new spindly font since I rebooted a few days back. | 10:07 |
| Keybuk | if I type ls, it's in various shades of grey | 10:07 |
| Kamion | some people like it, some don't | 10:07 |
| Kamion | dpkg-reconfigure console-setup if you don't | 10:07 |
| infinity | Kamion: Yeah, I'll change it back to something sane. This one doesn't agree with me at all. | 10:07 |
| Keybuk | Kamion: why do I only get it sometimes? | 10:07 |
| Kamion | Keybuk: probably because setupcon isn't always managing to work at boot? | 10:08 |
| pitti | infinity: how do you guys get the new console font? Mine didn't change for literally years | 10:08 |
| Kamion | Keybuk: I bet if you run setupcon for a console post-boot, it'll chang | 10:08 |

| Kamion | Keybuk: if you could hack your init scripts to strace -f setupcon, that would be useful | 10:08 |
| Kamion | I can't do a lot with a bare "doesn't work" bug, but I might be able to dig it out of a trace when it doesn't work | 10:09 |

| Keybuk | Kamion: then why is it so light? | 10:13 |
| Keybuk | terminus is definitely not as easy to read as VGA | 10:13 |
| infinity | Keybuk: You may just be suffering from the same thing I am. | 10:14 |
| infinity | Keybuk: Terminus *is* easier on the eyes, but it's also a pain to parse for someone who's been reading VGA for the last 20 years. | 10:14 |
| Keybuk | I'm just referring to the fact that VGA appears white | 10:14 |
| Keybuk | and that Terminus appears a kind of dark grey | 10:14 |
| Keybuk | nowhere near as contrasty | 10:14 |
| infinity | Eyes playing tricks on you because it's thinner? | 10:14 |
| infinity | The boldness of VGA may make it seem whiter because you've got more bright pixels yelling at you. | 10:15 |
| janimo | Kamion: fixed up python-cups according to to the policy and also uploaded system-config-printer to NEW | 10:15 |
| Mithrandir | Riddell: new kubuntu images for you, btw, both desktop and alternate. | 10:15 |
| Kamion | Keybuk: *shrug* dunno, I'm just quoting the stated purpose in the readme | 10:16 |

| CarlFK | what text editor exists in the installer? (so I can edit inittab) | 10:17 |
| Riddell | Mithrandir: great, just what I need before breakfast | 10:17 |
| Keybuk | you probably don't want to edit inittab | 10:17 |
| Keybuk | given it's largely ignored | 10:18 |
| Kamion | CarlFK: nano | 10:18 |
| Keybuk | and probably doesn't even exist on fresh installs | 10:18 |
| Kamion | Keybuk: in the *installer* | 10:18 |
| Kamion | it still exists | 10:18 |
| Kamion | ignore Keybuk :) | 10:18 |
| Keybuk | Kamion: alternate? | 10:18 |
| Kamion | we're not using upstart in the installer ;) | 10:18 |
| Kamion | Keybuk: yes | 10:18 |
| Keybuk | ah, I assumed LiveCD | 10:18 |
| Keybuk | at which point, of course, you have an entire distro | 10:18 |

| Kamion | know thy users ;) | 10:18 |
| tkamppeter | janimo, pitti, a complete upstream update of foomatic-db to today's snapshot does not only fix the two Ubuntu bugs which you mentioned here, but it also adds entries for 20 Toshiba PostScript printers, around 5 new HP inkjets (supported by HPLIP 1.6.7), 5 Samsung GDI lasers (work with ESP GhostScript's "gdi" driver or with the new Splix driver, and AFAIR there was also a Ubuntu bug report of missing Samsung printer entries). | 10:19 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: sounds like a good excuse for an UVF exception | 10:19 |
| Kamion | Mithrandir: I've repaired amd64 live CD builds; you may want to rebuild any you care about | 10:19 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: can you please mail mdz with a complete changelog for approval? | 10:20 |
| tkamppeter | So we fix 3 Ubuntu bug reports and add many new printers. | 10:20 |

| MrFaber | hi all | 10:30 |
| MrFaber | Does anyone know the reason why dynamic scaling doesn't react on kernel load? It only reacts on app load. Both ondemand and powernowd seems to don't recognize kernel load. If you use loop encryption or emulators with modules the cpu runs always with the lowes frequenzy until some app uses much. | 10:32 |

| jamadagni | "lart"? | 11:05 |
| pitti | jamadagni: (just kidding, just go ahead) | 11:05 |
| jamadagni | i have a local repo with tidy and libtidy. these are also present on the remote repos. same version in both places. | 11:05 |
| jamadagni | the local repo is configured before the remote repo in sources.list | 11:05 |
| Keybuk | Kamion: ok, strace attached | 11:05 |
| jamadagni | but apt-get goes and gets the remote file when i do apt-get install tidy | 11:05 |
| jamadagni | i remove the remote repo from the list then i try to install, then it takes the local file | 11:06 |
| jamadagni | why? | 11:06 |
| Kamion | make sure the local repository is first in the list; apt breaks ties by sources.list order | 11:06 |

| Kamion | there's such an enormous amount of crap in there | 11:10 |
| jamadagni | i suspected as much that apt-get might prefer a signed over unsigned repo | 11:10 |
| jamadagni | is that why | 11:10 |
| Kamion | I should make debconf-get-selections sort by question name, for a marginal increase in clarity | 11:10 |

| CarlFK | nope - didn't touch foo.cfg | 11:14 |
| Kamion | CarlFK: and definitely current edgy? | 11:14 |
| jamadagni | mvo: while i wait for paste.ubuntu.nl to load, i repeat that the local repo is not signed | 11:14 |
| Kamion | because /dev/discs isn't there any more | 11:14 |
| jamadagni | mvo: could that be the reason? | 11:15 |
| Kamion | CarlFK: I mean, did you generate the preseed file from a current edgy install? not knot 2, absolutely current | 11:15 |
| CarlFK | Kamion: ouch. i 'thinik' so, but now I am starting to wonder | 11:15 |
| Kamion | that would be my guess as to the problem | 11:15 |
| mvo | jamadagni: it could, but if the local version is newer than the archive version thatn it should still use the local one. if they are the same version, than apt will fetch the signed one (always) | 11:16 |
| Kamion | I'll feed the preseed file to my system anyway and see what happens; undoubtedly we can do something better than looping | 11:16 |
| Kamion | although your preseed file probably isn't helping by preseeding absolutely everything under the sun | 11:16 |
| CarlFK | Kamion: that was just an attempt to figure out the keyboard parameters :) | 11:16 |
| Kamion | the installation guide does say: | 11:16 |
| Kamion | However, a file generated in this manner will have some items that should | 11:16 |
| Kamion | not be preseeded, and the example file is a better starting place for most | 11:16 |
| Kamion | users. | 11:16 |
| Kamion | CarlFK: consider console-setup preseeding broken until I've had a chance to look into it | 11:17 |
| jamadagni | mvo: if so, should it be added to the apt-get documentation? | 11:17 |
| mvo | jamadagni: that sounds reasonable | 11:17 |

| Keybuk | but let's not worry about that for now | 11:52 |
| Kamion | aaaaaaaaand the Task headers in the archive aren't including recommends properly rigt now | 11:52 |
| Kamion | right | 11:52 |
| Keybuk | does the kick need to happen after mdrun? | 11:52 |
| Kamion | so, uh | 11:52 |
| fabbione | Keybuk: i hounestly have no idea.. echo -n add /... did work and created the proper by-uuid symlink | 11:52 |
| Keybuk | fabbione: was it a /sys/block thing you did? | 11:52 |
| fabbione | Keybuk: yes.. after mdrun | 11:52 |
| Keybuk | try adding udevtrigger -b && udevsettle to the mdrun script afterwards | 11:53 |
| fabbione | and the path for me was /sys/block/md*/uevent basically | 11:53 |
| Keybuk | (kick all block devices and wait for udev to process them) | 11:53 |
| madduck | argh. mdrun. | 11:53 |
| fabbione | oh | 11:53 |
| fabbione | feh ok i can do it... | 11:53 |

| Kamion | Mithrandir: right now, I can't think of anything not involving infinity | 11:53 |

| maswan | Mithrandir: are we going to need an extra mirror run soon? :) | 04:11 |
| BenC | Mithrandir: not sure about that one, sounds like a limitation of squashfs or something | 04:11 |

| Mithrandir | maswan: we'll see.. things didn't go according to plans this morning so it might be tomorrow | 04:11 |
| maswan | Mithrandir: 'k | 04:12 |
| BenC | Kamion: device-tree device modules will get automatically loaded | 04:12 |
| BenC | Mithrandir: ah, there's the reason then | 04:12 |
| BenC | hmm, well, unionfs or bind? | 04:12 |
| Kamion | pitti: find /proc/device-tree -name i2c\* | 04:12 |
| Mithrandir | BenC: / is an unionfs mount, /casper/* is really bind-mounted from /casper/* in the initramfs. | 04:13 |
| BenC | Kamion: you mean for edgy? I think the find and/or "grep -qi mac /proc/device-tree/compatible" would make it specific enough | 04:13 |
| Kamion | BenC: pitti has /proc/device-tree/pci@f2000000/mac-io@17/i2c@18000 with name=="i2c" - is that meant to be autoloaded as i2c-powermac now, or do you mean that'll happen for edgy+1? | 04:15 |

| seb128 | Mithrandir: no /etc/timezone and tzselect saying that the timezone is "Unknown" | 05:42 |
| Mithrandir | mvo_: it's aptitude. | 05:42 |
| seb128 | Mithrandir: tzconfig rather | 05:42 |
| mvo_ | Mithrandir: it should support this as well | 05:42 |

| seb128 | Tonio_: main is frozen for knot-3, don't upload | 06:16 |
| Tonio_ | seb128: I know :) that was for "after the freeze" :) | 06:16 |
| Tonio_ | seb128: although that's minor issue, so there is no emergency | 06:16 |
| seb128 | Tonio_: I'm not sure the patch is correct, don't we have a better way to detect the desktop used that looking for gnome-session running? | 06:16 |
| mvo | Tonio_: if you attach the patch to the bugreport I can merge it into bzr then. and then what seb128 said, it feels wrong to grep ps -A :) | 06:17 |
| seb128 | Tonio_: what about xfce? | 06:17 |
| Tonio_ | seb128: does it use gnome-open too ? | 06:17 |
| seb128 | Tonio_: I'm not sure, but I would like you to make sure before making a change ... and I fin the ps way hackish :) | 06:18 |
| Tonio_ | seb128: well concerning kde I can use KDE_FULL_VERSION env variable, but I didn't found a gnome equivalent...... | 06:18 |
| Tonio_ | seb128: if you have a tip, would be nice :) | 06:18 |
| seb128 | Tonio_: no, I don't | 06:18 |
| seb128 | will think about it | 06:18 |
| Tonio_ | seb128: that the problem...... I kno ps stuff is not very clean, but it works.... | 06:19 |
| Tonio_ | seb128: it would nice if both kde and gnome would set the same variable so that we could look at the one in use... | 06:19 |
| seb128 | Tonio_: we try to not hurry ugly code just because it works usually :p | 06:19 |
| Tonio_ | seb128: hehe, I agree :) | 06:20 |
| seb128 | when we have time to think about a better solution | 06:20 |
| Riddell | Portland is the longer-term answer to this | 06:20 |
| seb128 | I've a "DESKTOP_SESSION="gnome"" on my edgy desktop | 06:20 |
| mvo | xdg-utils, yeah | 06:20 |
| Tonio_ | seb128: "default" here...... | 06:20 |
| seb128 | Tonio_: what desktop are you running? | 06:21 |
| Nafallo | default here aswell, using gnome | 06:21 |
| Tonio_ | seb128: kde | 06:21 |
| seb128 | ok, so that one is not good enough | 06:21 |
| Tonio_ | Riddell: shouldn't we patch to get "kde" instead of "default" ? | 06:21 |
| seb128 | maybe raise the issue on the desktop or devel list? | 06:21 |
| Nafallo | GDMSESSION="default" :-) | 06:21 |
| seb128 | Nafallo: not everybody is using gdm anyway | 06:22 |
| seb128 | Nafallo: relying on GDM variable is not perfect | 06:22 |
| Nafallo | that's a point... | 06:22 |

| Nafallo | GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID="Default" | 06:22 |
| Tonio_ | Riddell: can't we patch kdm to get DESKTOP_SESSION set to "kde" instead of "default" when kde is running ? | 06:23 |
| Riddell | I suspect KDM will have a good reason to set it to that | 06:23 |
| Riddell | I'd rather just investiagte Portland | 06:23 |
| Tonio_ | Riddell: sure | 06:23 |
| Nafallo | and DESKTOP_SESSION is default for gnome as well, so probably a reason somewhere :-) | 06:24 |
| seb128 | Tonio_: from a mail on the gnome desktop list: | 06:24 |
| seb128 | "On Novell Linux Desktop, we have a number of applications which try to | 06:24 |
| seb128 | detect which desktop environment is running and perform the correct | 06:24 |
| seb128 | action. I have no idea how much customization went into the detection | 06:24 |
| seb128 | scripts, but I know at least some did. Here's what we look for: | 06:24 |
| seb128 | $DESKTOP_SESSION == gnome | 06:24 |
| seb128 | ${WINDOWMANAGER##*/} == *gnome* | 06:24 |
| seb128 | $GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID == gnome" | 06:24 |
| Nafallo | seb128: I have default on all of those ;-) | 06:25 |
| giftnudel | maybe some variable should be set, this should not be too difficult to implement? | 06:25 |
| Nafallo | !WINDOWMANAGER | 06:25 |
| seb128 | Nafallo: if GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID is set that's likely by GNOME though :p | 06:25 |
| Tonio_ | seb128: yes, DESKTOP_SESSION looks ideal for this... just that kdm doesn't set it as we need :) | 06:26 |
| seb128 | Tonio_: fix kdm then ;) | 06:26 |
| giftnudel | Tonio_: file a bug | 06:26 |
| seb128 | Tonio_: for now look if GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID is set | 06:26 |
| Nafallo | seb128: but the above code checked if it was set to "gnome" :-) | 06:26 |
| Tonio_ | giftnudel: well I'll had the information on bug 60426 since they are linked | 06:27 |
| Ubugtu | Malone bug 60426 in launchpad-integration "uses gnome prefs if kde and gnome are installed." [Untriaged,Unconfirmed] http://launchpad.net/bugs/60426 | 06:27 |
| seb128 | Nafallo: that's a mail giving the idea, not a code | 06:27 |
| Nafallo | ehm, right. | 06:27 |
| seb128 | Nafallo: you should be able to adapt on top of it instead of discussing details like that ... | 06:27 |
| seb128 | anyway, let's say if GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID is set we use GNOME | 06:27 |
| seb128 | KDE people know what they want to look for | 06:27 |
| Nafallo | should be. I don't run XFCE ;-) | 06:28 |
| seb128 | Tonio_: can you update the patch according to that? | 06:28 |
| Nafallo | but maybe it doesn't use gnome-session. | 06:28 |
| Tonio_ | seb128: sure | 06:28 |
| seb128 | thank you | 06:28 |
| Tonio_ | seb128: the point is isn't that better trying to fix kdm first to check for the same variable ? | 06:28 |
| Tonio_ | seb128: probably better than checking 2 different ones no ? | 06:29 |
| seb128 | DESKTOP_SESSION seems to be set to "default" if you use the default session with gdm too | 06:29 |
| seb128 | easier for now to do the lpi change | 06:29 |
| seb128 | and doesn't prevent to work on a cleaner xdg solution to detect the desktop | 06:29 |
| Tonio_ | seb128: ah okay | 06:29 |
| trappist | is mailto:ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com what we really want apt-cache to show for where to send bug reports? | 06:30 |

| BenC | anyone using dapper+nvidia? | 07:38 |
| mdz | BenC: I'm using dapper+nvidia-the-chipset, but nv-the-driver | 07:39 |
| BenC | mdz: Ok, I have a bug with dapper security, I think lrm needs recompiling...it's using the single symbol that changed because of the last upload | 07:40 |
| mdz | BenC: why didn't the ABI checker detect that? | 07:40 |
| BenC | it did, but I checked all (except lrm) modules to see if anything was using it...it's boot_cpu_data, which from what I found was only use by internal kernel stuff | 07:41 |
| BenC | so I force ignored it to avoid a big ABI bump for just i386+1-symbol | 07:41 |
| BenC | I'm not sure if I should reupload dapper kernel with ABI bump + l-m + lrm, or just rebuild lrm and do an ABI bump for next security update | 07:42 |
| pitti | BenC: ugh | 07:43 |
| BenC | fglrx, and other lrm modules aren't affected, neither is vmware-player-modules it seems | 07:43 |
| BenC | mdz: which way do you think is best, full ABI bump, or just rebuild lrm? | 07:44 |
| pitti | BenC: if we skipped the ABI bump for the kernel, why not just rebuild l-r-m without an ABI bump as well? doesn't that work? | 07:45 |
| mdz | BenC: please do the abi bump | 07:45 |
| BenC | pitti: yeah, that's the easiest plan | 07:45 |
| BenC | that's what I want to do, but I want to make sure that's ok with everyone else too | 07:46 |

| jdong|laptop | 403 forbidden on the 26.47 kernel updates | 08:52 |

| Frederick | bddebian, yep http://rafb.net/paste/results/I68SbL12.html | 08:54 |
| pitti | jdong, Frederick: will be fixed soon, yes, we want to block a faulty update | 08:54 |
| Frederick | pitti, ? | 08:55 |
| jdong|laptop | pitti: cool, glad to hear we're blocking it. Has packages.gz been updated to reflect that? | 08:55 |
| jdong|laptop | pitti: there's users at the forums getting 403's from trying to do an update, wondering if that's because their packages.gz is not up-to-date | 08:55 |
| Frederick | pitti, what do you mean? | 08:56 |
| pitti | Frederick: we currently building an updated linux-restricted-modules, since the previous kernel update broke nvidia driver | 08:57 |
| pitti | Frederick: and we don't want people to download the faulty version for the time being | 08:57 |
| pitti | Frederick: thus we blocked the package lists | 08:57 |
| pitti | Frederick: they will work again soon | 08:58 |
| Frederick | I have no problems with that :P my problem is with imagemagick =/ | 08:58 |
| jdong|laptop | Frederick: I think pitti means they blocked the package lists.... | 08:58 |
| jdong|laptop | Frederick: and that's causing your apt errors | 08:58 |
| Frederick | jdong, oh | 08:58 |
| Frederick | but I think the lib doesn't have dbg info avaliable for ubuntu =/ | 08:59 |
| jdong|laptop | pitti: are rollback procedures to be posted on ubuntu.com like last time, for the users already bitten by this bug? | 08:59 |
| pitti | jdong|laptop: actually we didn't block the package lists | 08:59 |
| jdong|laptop | pitti: we're trying to figure out the best way to address this at the forums, since a number of users are already affected | 08:59 |
| pitti | jdong|laptop: some minutes, please, while we finish this at maximum speed | 09:00 |
| jdong|laptop | k, sure | 09:00 |
| Frederick | jdong|laptop, so I should also wait some minutes and try again later? | 09:00 |
| jdong|laptop | Frederick: try an apt-get update... it should resolve itself | 09:00 |
| pitti | jdong|laptop: we prefer apt-get failure over installing a broken kernel | 09:01 |
| pitti | since users can recover from the former, but it's tricky with broken X in the latter case | 09:01 |
| mdz | jdong|laptop: we're focused on getting a corrected package up right now | 09:01 |
| jdong|laptop | pitti: yeah, I totally agree with that | 09:01 |
| jdong|laptop | pitti: it's just that if you block linux-headers, it makes it hard for people to recompile a custom nvidia against the new kernel ;) | 09:01 |
| jdong|laptop | mdz: I understand that. just trying to keep forum users at bay for now :) | 09:02 |

| Mithrandir | they're not intrinsically harder either ; it's just that it's more testing and therefore more work. | 09:12 |

| pitti | jdong|laptop: it's a matter of minutes now | 09:15 |
| jdong|laptop | pitti: k, then we'll take the heat :) | 09:15 |
| pitti | jdong|laptop: the solution for people who already have a broken system is: | 09:15 |
| pitti | jdong|laptop: logging in to a text console, sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 09:16 |

| AlinuxOS | Hello, http://alinuxos.no-ip.org/debian-installer.png I can't find this English string in debian-installer.po file, can someone help me ? | 11:01 |
| jdong | Keybuk: and I'm sure that's the reason all of this happened :) | 11:01 |
| jdong | Keybuk: after all, it's not like the source code to nvidia.ko is what we compile or anything | 11:01 |
| Keybuk | jdong: we don't have most of the source to nvidia.ko | 11:01 |
| Keybuk | it's a .o file | 11:01 |
| cr3 | can anyone actually read or write new_id files under /sys/bus/pci/drivers? I really have no clue how BenC manages to pull it off | 11:02 |
| jdong | Keybuk: we have enough of it to make it binary-compatible with the frickin kernel update :P | 11:02 |
| Keybuk | cr3: explain | 11:02 |
| cr3 | Keybuk: as root, I get "Permission denied" | 11:02 |
| beuno | jdong: do you have any idea how many ppl were affected thistime? | 11:02 |
| Keybuk | cr3: maybe the driver doesn't support it | 11:02 |
| _ion | --w------- 1 root root 4096 2006-09-15 00:02 /sys/bus/pci/drivers/PIIX_IDE/new_id | 11:02 |
| BenC | cr3: You can NOT read the files, they can only be written to | 11:02 |
| Keybuk | echo -n 0000:00:00:00 > new_id usually works for me | 11:03 |
| BenC | Keybuk: it's not the driver, it's the PCI subsystem, it lets them all support it | 11:03 |
| cr3 | is the "-n" absolutely necessary? everytime system76 tried the echo, it seemd to freeze his terminal :( | 11:03 |
| jdong | beuno: at least around 200 people on the forums have commented on the problem | 11:03 |
| Keybuk | cr3: I usually do the -n when echo'ing anything to the kernel | 11:03 |
| BenC | cr3: if it froze his terminal, then it worked | 11:03 |
| Keybuk | lol | 11:03 |
| BenC | well, it worked in that it took the command | 11:04 |
| Keybuk | "if kernel crashes, then it worked" | 11:04 |
| BenC | check dmesg | 11:04 |
| BenC | well it didn't freeze the kernel, just the command blocked :P | 11:04 |
| Keybuk | "driver, meet this hardware, hardware meet this driver, now FIGHT!" | 11:04 |
| beuno | jdong: so it's pretty big... | 11:04 |
| Keybuk | why does the command block like that? | 11:04 |
| cr3 | BenC: ok, thanks, I was worried there for a moment. | 11:04 |
| jdong | beuno: despite how miraculously fast the ubuntu team reacted, unfortunately a number of users were affected, yes. | 11:04 |
| BenC | it blocks because it starts a driver bind/probe | 11:04 |
| cr3 | BenC: are changes to /sys/.../new_id permanent or is there some file I should modify for changes to be permanent? | 11:05 |
| beuno | jdong: any idea what happend with the idea to add an extra step before these things get into the repos? | 11:05 |
| BenC | cr3: it does not last across reboots, no | 11:05 |
| jdong | beuno: people don't really test and report back? | 11:05 |
| AlinuxOS | Kamion, maybe you know why I can't find this string: http://alinuxos.no-ip.org/debian-installer.png | 11:05 |
| jdong | beuno: BenC had a rant about that earlier :) | 11:05 |
| BenC | cr3: that command would have to be added to an init script, or done after each boot | 11:05 |
| jdong | beuno: and I can tell you the same thing from backports.... people don't tell you it breaks UNTIL you move it into the stable repos :P | 11:06 |
| beuno | jdong: great, add me to it ;) | 11:06 |
| cr3 | BenC: at the end of rc.local should be fine? I'm just afraid of what will happen to the following rc scripts because of that crashing behavior | 11:06 |
| Kamion | AlinuxOS: that's an Ubuntu-specific string; you'll find it in debian-installer in Rosetta | 11:06 |
| Kamion | should be in the kbd-chooser section | 11:07 |
| beuno | jdong: so what's the plan? I thought that would contain these problems a bit more, but if it's not the solution... | 11:07 |
| jdong | beuno: I don't know what's the plan. I'd like to know too.... I don't make such calls around here ;-) | 11:07 |
| AlinuxOS | Kamion, Edgy-s debian-installer is not translatable in this moment...what can I do ? | 11:07 |
| jdong | beuno: you're gonna have to poke different people in this room for that info | 11:08 |
| Kamion | AlinuxOS: well, for starters that string won't be relevant in edgy :-) | 11:08 |
| Keybuk | BenC: isn't the driver bind/probe supposed to unblock eventually though? | 11:08 |
| === beuno is afraid to poke anyone at this stage | ||
| Kamion | AlinuxOS: we'll get it sorted out soon, but the code needs to be in place first | 11:08 |

| AlinuxOS | Kamion, won't be relevant ? :)You mean that this string will change or something similar ? | 11:09 |
| Kamion | AlinuxOS: that's a string in kbd-chooser, which is being replaced by console-setup; the strings in console-setup are different | 11:09 |
| BenC | Keybuk: it does, he said it hangs for a bit then errors | 11:09 |
| Kamion | so there is essentially no point in translating that string | 11:09 |
| beuno | well, I'm off, will check later to see who else needs to get walked through the breakages | 11:09 |
| beuno | good luck ;D | 11:10 |
| Kamion | interesting, that string indeed doesn't seem to be in the .pot file | 11:10 |
| Keybuk | BenC: ahh, I usually just see that hang forever | 11:10 |
| AlinuxOS | Kamion, it would be great if rosetta-s guys order modules by importance. So in this way translators can understand which module is more-less important. | 11:11 |
| Kamion | AlinuxOS: oh, you didn't tell me that was edgy :-) | 11:11 |
| Kamion | AlinuxOS: that *is* the console-setup string | 11:11 |
| AlinuxOS | ah | 11:11 |
| Kamion | AlinuxOS: I'll get it added to the master d-i .pot file tomorrow | 11:11 |
| AlinuxOS | Kamion, thank you. | 11:12 |
| Kamion | AlinuxOS: they already do have some degree of ordering by importance, as I understand things | 11:12 |

| Kamion | AlinuxOS: what do you mean by "some other modules straightly linked with debian-installer"? | 11:26 |
| AlinuxOS | :) example: console-setup | 11:26 |
| Kamion | there are a whole bunch, too many to list | 11:27 |
| AlinuxOS | ah | 11:27 |
| AlinuxOS | Kamion, so we need that bunch into rosetta, listed before. | 11:28 |
| Kamion | AlinuxOS: with the exception of console-setup, they already are | 11:29 |
| Kamion | AlinuxOS: see https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/edgy/+source/debian-installer/+translations | 11:29 |
| Kamion | they're all incorporated in one giant template | 11:29 |
| AlinuxOS | Some people (like me), translators don't know which module is more-less important. So when you have mature consol-setup and debian-installer it will be super to have everything listed in rosetta in first page. | 11:29 |
| Kamion | AlinuxOS: translators should just go to debian-installer | 11:29 |
