gnomefreakailean: not sure i know a package was rejected because it didnt build fine12:49
aileangnomefreak, i just see the deferred notice on LP12:50
aileangnomefreak, i hope not - i really think it's what ubuntu and desktop linux needs12:50
gnomefreaki never looked i think its a  big thing with the binary drivers by default12:51
aileanwell of course i understand that12:51
aileansabdfl convinced me on the subject though :)12:51
gnomefreakit was a good idea and i know the beryl devs are working towards it but the binary thing and the fail to build maybe why its deffered but i never saw the notice.12:52
BurgworkI never saw it either12:52
aileannahh, i just mean that it's marked as deferred. i didn't see any statement or anything12:53

aileanmisunderstanding :)12:55
gnomefreakit would have been in feisty-changes?12:55
aileanall i saw was the word "deferred"12:55
aileanwell i'm subscribed to this feature and didn't receive any email about it12:56
Burgworkit could be that those changes don't trigger bug mail, which is odd12:56
aileanit's just weird that it's essential, but deferred :)12:57
Burgworknot the only spec12:57
aileansurely if it was essential, they'd find the time to work on it :D12:58
gnomefreaki will find out from the effects team whats going on im sure someone there knows. wish i was able to be kept up-to-date being owner of it12:58

gnomefreakkeybuk isnt on atm maybe ill ping him later im sure he did it01:02
gnomefreakasbdfl wanted it way too bad to deffer it this early i would think01:03
Burgworkmdz may also have done it, now that I think about it01:03
gnomefreaks/asbdfl/sabdfl01:03
gnomefreakhe can change it?01:03
aileani'm glad you agree it's strange01:05
Burgworkyes, as he is the registrant01:05
aileanunless they decided to go with the metacity composite work . . .01:06
gnomefreakberyl-core must really be screwed up if the FTB is the reason01:06
aileanFTB?01:06
aileanfailure to build?01:06
BurgworkFTBFS is the more common term01:06
Burgworkthe metacity stuff is dead01:06
aileanwhat about compiz though, that was a serious option01:07
Burgworksoren is now working on compiz01:07
aileanwhy is it dead?01:07
Burgworkbecause it is01:07
aileanno one working on it?01:07
bhales'what he said01:07
aileanyeah, it doesn't quite explain though :)01:08
bhalesoren wrote it, and has since moved on to compiz01:08
bhaleit happens01:08

jdongwasabi: I'd still say get a herd1 cd :)03:53
wasabigrabbing the latest daily build right now. i'll grab a herd1 just in case.03:54
wasabineed a solution when i get into work tomorrow. =/03:54
wasabinew intel mobo. achi stuff.03:54
wasabiahci03:54
jdongouch03:55
jdongyeah03:55
wasabiWonder how hard it would be to backport feisty's kernel to edgy.03:55
wasabiprobably pretty easy... would just have to go through the trouble of actually making a custom installer.03:56
kylemeh? why bother, what pci ids? you can probably work around.03:56
wasabihmm. guess a usb cdrom drive would solve the problem too.03:56
wasabiIt just can't read the IDE CDRom.03:56
wasabiIt gets the SATA drives fine though.03:56
kylemhmm.03:57
jdongkylem: lack of chipset support :(03:57
jdongkylem: it's a known issue with like the Core 2 Duo desktop chipsets03:58
jdonglike the 965/975's03:58
wasabiayup. that'd be me.03:58
jdongthey have really odd IDE chipsets03:58

=== PuMpErNiCkEl [n=pumperni@about/essy/bacon/PuMpErNiCkLe] has joined #ubuntu-devel
jdongwe tried backporting to 2.6.17 but none of those cherrypicks seem complete enough03:58
wasabiare they odd as in "new" or odd as in "stupid?"03:58
jdongwasabi: new03:59
jdongas in, instead of a shiny well supported intel ICH* chipset03:59
jdongyou get some random unknown company's cheap IDE chipset03:59
kylemhmm.03:59
jdongthough the SATA chipset is the awesome ICH one03:59
kylemwe'll see.03:59
wasabiAhh. So it's just the IDE chipset.04:00
wasabiThe SATA is fine?04:00
jdongwasabi: exactly04:00
wasabiI might just run by fries and grab a SATA DVD writer to replace my current one then04:00
wasabifry's04:00
wasabiand forget the entire problem.04:00

wasabisuspected as much.04:01
jdongwasabi: you can actualyl just install feisty kernel debs on Edgy04:01
wasabijust have to get edgy installed first. ;)04:01
jdongEXCEPT the gui components in l-r-m aren't gonna work04:01
jdongyou can install the linux-image packages04:01
jdongand you should rebuild l-r-m-2.6.19 if you need them04:01
wasabiWith another CD drive, or setting up a PXE boot or some crap, I don't have anyway to get into a working system. :)04:01

bddebiancjwatson: Hi.  Hey, how do I properly ask to get packages brought from Debian that are not currently being synced? (Not new packages but probably blacklisted?)04:47
cjwatsonbddebian: check in http://people.ubuntu.com/~cjwatson/sync-blacklist.txt to see if they're blacklisted and why04:47
=== didymo [n=ashley@CPE-61-9-197-223.static.nsw.bigpond.net.au] has joined #ubuntu-devel
bddebianHmm, not on that list04:48
cjwatsonbddebian: if they aren't, they should be brought in automatically; just make a note to file bugs with ubuntu-archive subscribed shortly before UVF if they aren't04:48
cjwatsonbddebian: example package?04:48
bddebianmig and gnumach04:48
bddebianAnd maybe hurd04:48
bddebianBecause they are ports?04:49
cjwatsonhurd only builds for an architecture we don't support, so that won't happen04:49
cjwatsonwell, it might get synced I guess but won't build04:49
bddebianAye.  Hurds not as important for now but I would like to get mig and gnumach if at all possible04:50
cjwatsonerr, those are all in feisty04:50
cjwatson       mig |    1.3.1-2 | feisty/universe | source04:50
cjwatson   gnumach | 2:1.3.99.dfsg.1-1 | feisty/universe | source04:50
cjwatson      hurd | 20060825-2 | feisty/universe | source04:50
cjwatsonall in sync with Debian04:50
bddebianHmm, strange04:50
bddebiannevermind... Sorry04:51

bddebianIs that new?04:51
cjwatsonwasabi: I don't know of daily build breakage right at the moment ... well, Kubuntu ubiquity won't be happy, but ...04:51
wasabigetting the alt image anyways04:52
cjwatsonbddebian: no, not at all; those are all there right back to warty04:52
cjwatsonbddebian: none of them have ever built though04:52
bddebianHow the hell have I missed those.  Damn, I have GOT to get off the crack04:52
cjwatsonbddebian: I suspect they need a manual bootstrap by infinity04:53
bddebianNot a big deal as long as the source is synced. Thanks man.04:53

=== mat__ [n=mat@82.247.157.187] has joined #ubuntu-devel
jdongcjwatson: you're right, I didn't consider the installer... silly me :)04:58
cjwatsonthere are the following sources currently not blacklisted and not synced from Debian: attal-themes-medieval cdrskin etoile gnuradio iceape preview-latex python-gtk2-doc samizdat tagcoll2 xbase-clients xutils04:58
cjwatsonI suspect all of those have problems of some kind that make sync-source bail out, and have to be thought about and resolved manually04:59
cjwatsonfor instance: E: tagcoll is in main but its source (tagcoll2) is not.04:59
cjwatsonso tagcoll2 needs to be checked for suitability in main, and then forced in05:00
bddebianI thought I brought in a new attal-themes-medieval in edgy?05:01
cjwatsonbddebian: it's not a source package in edgy; presumably built by another source05:02
bddebiancjwatson: Oh, I think it's built from attal now05:02
cjwatsonlooks like it got split out into a separate source package again in Debian, the way it was up to dapper, or similar05:02
bddebianAhh. Hmm05:02
cjwatsonagain, that's the sort of thing that needs to be resolved manually05:02
bddebianIs that list posted somewhere?05:03
cjwatsonno05:03
=== bddebian copy and pasts
bddebianpastes even05:03
cjwatsonprobably should be, but you can ask an ubuntu-archive member to run 'new-source' in ~/syncs any time you're curious05:03
cjwatson(or in fact just run it, it cds itself)05:03
bddebianthx05:03
cjwatsonthat's just main - there are other lists for contrib and non-free05:04

bddebiangah, I don't "do" main :)05:05
cjwatsonsome of those should possibly be blacklisted (for now?), e.g. ipw3945 is in l-r-m05:05

verwilstcjwatson: hm02:20
verwilstand there's no way to force it to do some more? ;)02:20
cjwatsonyou have to actually unmount the filesystem (or maybe remount it read-only) to force it, and that's logistically very difficult at that stage in the installer, considering that we're running the grub binary from the same filesystem and have other stuff mounted in there02:21

Mirvpitti: they are different files (_b and _l) with different contents, but presumably the upstream could make it unneeded at some point. but apparently the libvoikko currently needs them in that way, different byte-order for different endianness04:07
Riddellenrico: this is a tangled web of dependencies04:07
ogra_cjwatson, that signal should be there already04:08
pittiMirv: I closed the bug; sorry for the noise04:09
ogra_cjwatson, there is power_button_pressed in src/gpm-manager.c in the gpm source04:09
ogra_it gets the event from hal though04:09
cjwatsonogra_: it doesn't notice when new keyboards appear, which is device_added04:10
cjwatsonogra_: this is actually a real problem :-)04:10
ogra_does hal notice it ?04:10
cjwatsonogra_: mouseemu does its work by creating a virtual keyboard device in userspace04:10
ogra_ah04:11
cjwatsonogra_: yes, it does - g-p-m subscribes to the signal but does nothing with it04:11
cjwatsonhal definitely notices, I just patched it :-)04:11
ogra_heh, ok04:11
cjwatson(only in bzr as yet)04:11
enricoRiddell: it is, and I'd like to get rid of some, but mornfall's not currently active on adept04:11
ogra_i'll look if there is any kind of patch in a newer gpm04:11
cjwatsonI think gpm-hal-monitor.c is the right place - I'm happy to write the patch if you can review it04:12
cjwatsonsince I have all the stuff set up here04:12
ogra_the one we have is pretty old, i'm still waiting for giskard who wanted to maintain it in debian and ubuntu now ...04:12

Burgworkelmo: pong07:19
Burgworkgeez, everybody is looking for me07:19
iwjKeybuk: udev-evms done too.  Let me know if I can be of any more assistance.07:20
Keybukiwj: want to go at udev-devmapper? :)07:21
Keybukcomplete the trilogy07:21
Keybukudev-device-mapper ?07:21
LaserJockBurgwork: you're a wanted man ;-)07:22
iwjKeybuk: Sure.  Very much the other end of the spectrum.  I'll take a look at that on Monday.07:22
iwjIt's good that I've had an excuse to play with udev, which I previously didn't understand at all.07:23
Keybukit's not too difficult really; it's basically just a rule processor for events from the kernel07:23
Keybukthe trick is mostly understanding the kinds and content of events for each device07:23
Keybukwould be good to have someone else on the team who can grok it07:23
iwjmvo: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~ian/bzr/apt-breaks-iwj/ has that dist-upgrade Breaks: fix.07:24
iwjmvo: But I still need to talk to you about the dist-upgrader.07:24
iwjKeybuk: It's a crazy crazy programming language.07:24
dholbachiwj: mvo is not here07:25
iwjdholbach: Oh, is he on holiday already ?07:25
Keybukiwj: it didn't start out as one07:25
dholbachno, he was travelling and should be around a bit later07:25
Burgworkelmo: pm me if needed07:25
Keybukbut has had turingness bolted on07:25
iwjdholbach: Ah.  There's no urgency; it can wait until next week.  The apt thing is something mvo asked for.07:25
dholbachalrighty07:26
iwjKeybuk: Always happens.  It's usually best to design it in.07:26
Keybukiwj: if I didn't know better, I'd say there was a planet-sized hint going on there :p07:26
iwjI don't do hints :-).07:26
iwjBut now that you come to mention it ...07:27
iwj*grin*07:27
iwjKeybuk: Is that `watershed' feature going to make it into the archive soon ?  I haven't really tested the raceyness or otherwise of the evms change because it depends on watershed to avoid the race.07:28
Keybukiwj: yeah, the patch is sitting in my inbox, I just haven't got around to testing it yet07:29
iwjKeybuk: If you mail me a copy when you have a mo I'd be happy to look at it.  It's the kind of thing that can be subtly wrong.07:29
iwjSo another brain thinking about it would probably be worthwhile.07:29
KeybukI've got a small stack of udev changes that need doing, I should probably tackle them soon next week07:30
iwjRight.07:30
Keybukneed to see how this modprobe patch works as well07:30
iwjmodprobe patch ?07:30
Keybukit builds modprobe into udev07:30
iwjYikes.07:30
Keybukso you don't need to parse modules.alias, modules.dep and /etc/modprobe.conf every time a device gets inserted07:30
iwjThat would be a win, I suppose.07:31
Keybukalso means we can do fast lookups of modalias strings into driver names (when we get that kernel patch)07:32
Keybukso can make device/driver binding decisions in udev07:32

bluefoxicyAlright11:58
bluefoxicyI'm gonna go out on a limb and try to get qvm86 to work, and get Edgy or Dapper to boot under it11:58
bluefoxicyI'm thinking two things:11:58
bluefoxicyA) Someone buy KQemu so that @%*@( gives us the source code11:59
bluefoxicyB) Get qvm86 running Ubuntu11:59
bluefoxicy(B) will be cheaper, me thinks.  Either way, I want something that I can throw onto the LiveCD that when popped into a Linux/Windows host will go, "Oh, you want to run the LiveCD in a virtualized environment?" and do so at full speed.11:59
shackan_you want to ship qemu with the livecd?12:00
bluefoxicy(there's also option (C), I start probing KQemu myself and reverse-engineer it)12:00
bluefoxicyshackan_:  it's been a flighting fantasy of some liveCD makers to have the liveCD run without booting off it; in fact, IIRC a specific version of Knoppix loads Qemu when it's stuck into a Windows machine12:01
bluefoxicybut it's slow as ass.12:01
shackan_doesn't seem something worth spending one's time on, especially when you could improve qvm86 instead12:01
bluefoxicyqvm86 is a GPL'd RE of kqemu, which is support framework for qemu12:02
shackan_I know12:02
shackan_vmplayer is too slow too ?12:02
bluefoxicyvmplayer is not BSD/GPL/LGPL12:02
bluefoxicyI highly doubt they're going to stick that on the LiveCD12:03
shackan_ok, and neither is kqemu12:03
bluefoxicyqvm86 is12:03
shackan_but what's so wrong about kqemu ? it can't be distributed or something ?12:03
bluefoxicykqemu can be, but it'll take money, which can be avoided12:04
bluefoxicyyes12:04
bluefoxicyhold on a sec12:04
bluefoxicyhttp://qemu.org/qemu-accel.html12:04
bluefoxicyThe QEMU Accelerator is free to use, but it is a closed source proprietary product. You are not allowed to distribute it yourself to other people without an explicit authorisation. Distributors wishing to include the QEMU accelerator on CDs, ISO images or packages must contact the author to know the exact terms.12:04
bluefoxicyshackan_:  he is tightly controlling it because he wants a wealthy venture capitalist to rain money down on him12:05
shackan_bluefoxicy, there's nothing wrong with willing to make money from your work :)12:05
bluefoxicyif someone wants to buy it off him that's great; but there's no market for it and nobody's paid him anything yet, and i'm not rich, so I need another route12:06
shackan_so qvm seems the only way, if you have the skill and a lot of time to invest12:07
bluefoxicyshackan_: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.qemu.qvm86/19/focus=19 btw updates qvm86 to be closer to kqemu 1.312:07
