=== jdong notes conflicting reports of stock repo nvidia-legacy breaking too | ||
jdong | fixable by a depmod -ae | 12:15 |
jdong | argh, this is beyond frustrating to try to support | 12:15 |
=== sistpoty uses the binary nvidia driver *duck* | ||
jdong | sistpoty: you don't need to duck unless you say you used a 3rd party repo or automatix to install it :D | 12:20 |
tsmithe | yeah he does | 12:21 |
tsmithe | non believer! | 12:21 |
sistpoty | jdong: hm... earlier on, I'd say that I compiled it myself (the debian way though)... but with ubuntu I changed to stock kernel + stock binary module | 12:21 |
jdong | the thing is | 12:22 |
jdong | it seems like 3rd party 9631 is most likely to break | 12:22 |
jdong | and in a very destructive manner too | 12:22 |
jdong | nvidia_drv.o disappears from xorg's directory | 12:23 |
jdong | but official drivers have been reported to break and require a depmod -ae, too | 12:23 |
jdong | although it's all wildly inconsistent | 12:23 |
LaserJock | jdong: what do you mean by "3rd party"? | 12:23 |
jdong | LaserJock: like tsmithe or amaranth's repositories | 12:23 |
jdong | LaserJock: that provide a modified lrm package with updated nvidia | 12:23 |

jdong | LaserJock: typically used by beryl-ites for their native indirect rendering, etc | 12:24 |
jdong | Amaranth: .so? | 12:24 |
Amaranth | jdong: it was replaced by nvidia_drv.so in the 9xxx series | 12:24 |
Amaranth | my package includes it | 12:24 |
jdong | that's what I meant | 12:24 |
jdong | Amaranth: but the breakage cases I've seen, all nvidia* disappears | 12:24 |
jdong | so does libglx* | 12:24 |
Amaranth | how is that possible? | 12:24 |
jdong | from /usr/lib/xorg{/drivers} | 12:24 |
jdong | Amaranth: I DONT KNOW | 12:24 |
jdong | that's what puzzles me :) | 12:24 |
tsmithe | jdong, I don't provide a repo (not enough bandwidth) | 12:25 |
jdong | and nobody has been able to reproduce it more than once | 12:25 |

jdong | i.e. forcing a downgrade and re-upgrade cannot make the files disappear again | 12:25 |
jdong | but clearly to begin with when I diagnosed their problems | 12:25 |
jdong | all userspace nvidia vanished without a trace | 12:25 |
Amaranth | tsmithe: You are the creator of envy? | 12:25 |
jdong | but the kernel module was intact | 12:25 |

Amaranth | jdong: oh shit, there is a new l-r-m in edgy-security? | 12:33 |
Amaranth | jdong: that will force the uninstall of nvidia-glx | 12:33 |
jdong | no no no | 12:34 |
jdong | relax | 12:34 |
Amaranth | and they will not be able to reinstall nvidia-glx until the 3rd party l-r-m is updated | 12:34 |
jdong | no new l-r-m | 12:34 |
Amaranth | it's a kernel? | 12:34 |
jdong | just new l-i | 12:34 |
jdong | right | 12:34 |
jdong | new kernel | 12:34 |
jdong | still ABI number 10 | 12:34 |
jdong | so IN THEORY nothing should break | 12:34 |
jdong | however, many users are reporting such breakages | 12:34 |
jdong | not nearly as global as the famous dapper incident | 12:34 |

jdong | Amaranth: no, it doesn't remove nvidia-glx | 12:36 |
jdong | Amaranth: but many files from nvidia-glx magically disappeard for some users | 12:36 |
jdong | during the upgrade | 12:36 |
jdong | Amaranth: which a reinstall of nvidia-glx fixed | 12:36 |
jdong | again, very very very weird | 12:36 |
jdong | I acn't explain how it happened | 12:36 |
Amaranth | that is uncanny | 12:36 |
jdong | Amaranth: what do you mean what happened to the forums? | 12:36 |
Amaranth | jdong: the colors are all screwed up | 12:36 |

jdong | I wasn't involved in that | 12:37 |

joejaxx | Hello everyone | 02:16 |
joejaxx | i have an interesting question for you all :P | 02:16 |
joejaxx | is there a way to install a debian package and restrict it from starting any services that might be linked to it at the time of the install? | 02:17 |
joejaxx | for example | 02:17 |
joejaxx | openssh-server | 02:17 |
joejaxx | how could you stop it from from /etc/init.d/ssh start at the time of install | 02:18 |
LaserJock | well, remove it's postinst :-) | 02:18 |
joejaxx | LaserJock: well i meant without modifying the package :P | 02:18 |
joejaxx | too bad there is not a sudo apt-get install blah --do-not-start-services | 02:19 |
minghua | joejaxx: because dpkg/apt knows nothing about starting services | 02:20 |
imbrandon | the debian way is not to have services installed that arent going to be run , unlike redhat etc where sendmail etc might be installed but not running | 02:20 |
minghua | joejaxx: it only executes the postinst script | 02:20 |
minghua | exactly what imbrandon said | 02:20 |
joejaxx | i wonder how i can get hal to install then | 02:21 |
minghua | that's also why openssh-server and openssh-client are split up | 02:21 |
crimsun_ | remove the call to setup_init in openssh-server.postinst | 02:21 |
joejaxx | or i think that was the package | 02:21 |
=== ehazlett [n=ehazlett@adsl-69-212-246-164.dsl.ipltin.sbcglobal.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||

crimsun_ | hal instances? what precisely are you referring to? | 02:22 |
crimsun_ | hald? hald-runner? hald-addon-* ? | 02:23 |
joejaxx | installing hal in a chroot environment | 02:23 |
joejaxx | hald | 02:23 |
joejaxx | i think that is the service if i remember correctly | 02:23 |
joejaxx | you all probably think it is weird i am trying to do that lol | 02:25 |
crimsun_ | not really, since it works fine here. | 02:26 |
joejaxx | crimsun_: hmmm | 02:27 |
joejaxx | hold on let me see | 02:27 |
joejaxx | it might not be hald then | 02:31 |
joejaxx | hald i think is the one that takes a while for the service to start when installing the package | 02:32 |
joejaxx | i can tell you in 8 minutes | 02:32 |

imbrandon | look at the gid headlines | 02:56 |
imbrandon | "Ubuntu Satanic Edition Released!!" | 02:56 |
rmjb | i checked the url and it also has dapper-backports, so it seems something with the searching rather than the search form | 02:56 |

Lathiat | jdong: hence digg < goldfish? ;) | 02:59 |
joejaxx | jdong: haha! | 02:59 |
jdong | joejaxx: absolutely | 02:59 |
jdong | they're not the brightest fish | 02:59 |
jdong | but they are really really motivated by food | 02:59 |
joejaxx | jdong: how long does it take | 02:59 |
jdong | unlike some other fish | 02:59 |
joejaxx | oh | 02:59 |
Lathiat | mythbusters did some stuff with them | 02:59 |
Lathiat | that was interesting; | 02:59 |
jdong | it takes about a week to get them to follow a stupid obstacle course | 02:59 |
jdong | they respond to bright flourescent colors really well | 02:59 |
jdong | and food ALONG the colors :) | 03:00 |
jdong | but you can get the to swim in a distinct pattern along the bottom of the tank | 03:00 |
jdong | but after they are trained, they will retain it for a long long time | 03:00 |
jdong | and if you refresh them like every month with one dry run, they'll remember | 03:01 |
joejaxx | jdong: wow | 03:01 |
jdong | but I've left them alone for several months before, and they'll still kinda do the trick | 03:01 |
jdong | though with a few flaws here and tehre | 03:01 |

rmjb | what does it take? just the edgy source files and debuild and install? | 03:12 |

jdong | rmjb: pretty much yeah, bump down the version a bit with a ~ tag of some sort | 03:13 |

rmjb_ | jdong: since the backport for it to dapper is not complete, is there anything I should be aware of? any package I should have pre-installed? like mysql-client | 03:21 |
jdong | rmjb you should have a fully functional LAMP stack installed | 03:21 |
jdong | rmjb: including an operational mysql-server | 03:21 |
jdong | and client | 03:21 |
jdong | installed | 03:21 |

rmjb_ | jdong: so what's needed to complete the backport? | 03:27 |
jdong | rmjb_: it doesn't depend on anything else | 03:28 |
jdong | rmjb_: heck since it's a php arch-neutral package you can just install the deb if you want | 03:29 |
rmjb_ | from edgy? | 03:29 |
jdong | yeah sure why not :) | 03:30 |
jdong | it's pretty safe to do | 03:30 |
jdong | with this particular package | 03:30 |

Simon80 | but the culture around the game grew up around ripping off official songs, lol | 06:02 |
Simon80 | so they don't tend to meticulously document the copyright | 06:02 |
Simon80 | 3.9 though, not happening | 06:02 |
Simon80 | unless I find a purely legal theme to replace the default, and even that may not happen, the themes cascade, lol | 06:02 |
Simon80 | so I would maybe have to hack on it... and that's ridiculous, theming stepmania is ridiculous | 06:03 |

minghua | superm1: you mean preinst being *run* | 07:14 |
minghua | ? | 07:14 |
superm1 | yes | 07:14 |
Hobbsee | minghua: yes, launchpad is absolutely moronic, which is why i hadnt dealt with the mail crap before that | 07:15 |
=== Hobbsee still feels like she was screwing it up | ||
minghua | superm1: and what do you mean by "setting up its conffiles"? the other package's postinst needs to be run first? | 07:15 |
minghua | Hobbsee: you are doing good, don't worry :-) | 07:16 |
superm1 | well its not the other package's postinst doing it, its just a conffile that appears to get setup at the end of the install | 07:16 |
Hobbsee | heh, okay | 07:16 |
superm1 | gdm in particular. if i make my package dependent on gdm, i wanted my preinst to be able to read something from gdm.conf-custom | 07:17 |
superm1 | but its not existing unless gdm is fully installed | 07:17 |
minghua | hmm, then how is it a conffile... | 07:18 |
superm1 | i'm assuming during install, its called gdm.conf-custom.dpkgNEW or something | 07:19 |
superm1 | to that nature | 07:19 |
minghua | superm1: but it sounds like you need a Pre-Depends | 07:19 |
superm1 | yea thats what i'm thinkin i'm needing after looking at the DNMG | 07:19 |
superm1 | more closely | 07:19 |
minghua | just for the record, there is no gdm.conf-custom conffile in Debian | 07:20 |
superm1 | but there is in Ubuntu | 07:21 |
superm1 | this package is gonna be ubuntu specific | 07:21 |
superm1 | :) | 07:21 |
minghua | sure | 07:21 |
minghua | I'm just saying :-) | 07:21 |
superm1 | thanks a bunch | 07:22 |
minghua | superm1: it sounds strange though | 07:22 |
minghua | superm1: are you sure that file is listed in /var/lib/dpkg/info/gdm.conffiles? | 07:22 |
superm1 | well i just tested it and it worked | 07:22 |
superm1 | with a pre-depends | 07:22 |
superm1 | minghua, yes it is. cat /var/lib/dpkg/info/gdm.conffiles | grep custom | 07:23 |
superm1 | /etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom | 07:23 |
minghua | enemies-of-carlotta? that's a package name? | 07:23 |
superm1 | wow, weird name for a mailing list manager | 07:24 |
minghua | superm1: okay thanks. but people are supposed to modify that file, aren't they? that would make upgrade unnecessarily painful. | 07:24 |
=== RAOF|Work is now known as RAOF | ||
minghua | superm1: yeah, I thought it's a game or something | 07:25 |
superm1 | well what i'm trying to do is provide an alternate file in a different directory, divert the original to a /etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom-original, and then use a symlink to link /etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom to my alternate file | 07:25 |
superm1 | the package is a metapackage that is trying to automate the configuration of several apps to fine tune a machine for a specific purpose | 07:25 |
superm1 | gdm in particular to setup an automatic login | 07:25 |
superm1 | and then if they scrap the metapackage, they'll get their original conffile back | 07:26 |
superm1 | minghua, is it against packaging rules to do something like this though? | 07:30 |
minghua | superm1: I have not an expert on conffile handling or diversion, but sounds sane to me | 07:35 |
minghua | superm1: except that people usually just divert a file and put another with the same name there, instead of doing a symlink | 07:35 |
superm1 | okay, its the only semisane solution i have been able to come up with the last week. i've been trying lots of wacky things that i've never seen done before | 07:35 |
superm1 | well i tried that | 07:35 |
superm1 | but the problem is it becomes a conffile for this package | 07:36 |
superm1 | and you cant reverse the diversion, unless you purge the package | 07:36 |
minghua | hmm, good point | 07:36 |
superm1 | which is a catch22 because you cant purge the package because the postrm would try to revert the diversion | 07:36 |
minghua | things always become tricky when it comes to conffiles | 07:37 |
superm1 | so i'm just placing the conffiles that would have been used here in /etc/mythtv, so that they can still be conffiles, and the symlink gets blown away before reverting the diversion | 07:38 |

somerville32 | IS there a different between a MOTU and a ubuntu developer? | 08:40 |
crimsun_ | for all practical purposes, no. A Ubuntu developer can be thought of as a member of the Launchpad ubuntu-dev team, which includes anyone with universe upload privileges. Therefore, MOTU are Ubuntu developers. | 08:41 |

minghua | dholbach: but sure, I'll have the feisty freeze dates in mind | 10:52 |
minghua | dholbach: yes they are | 10:52 |

Zic_ | sistpoty|uni: hi :) | 05:23 |
sistpoty|uni | hi Zic_ ;) | 05:23 |
Zic_ | siretart: Yes, I have many problems you see : | 05:23 |
sistpoty|uni | Zic_: what's the exact state of the data-files? can we distribute these as is? | 05:24 |
Zic_ | I've got the new package with cdbs, and I do separated package for source and data ... and server :) | 05:24 |
sistpoty|uni | Zic_: I saw... (btw.: the comment was from me, just in case you wonder) | 05:24 |
sistpoty|uni | Zic_: the packaging is really nice now imo | 05:24 |

Zic_ | sistpoty|uni: He doesn't really understand the question, so I told him : You think distribute Men Are Ants like this is illegal ? Or the problem of licence is other things ? | 05:28 |
Zic_ | sistpoty|uni: He said it's ok, no problem of illegal things :> | 05:29 |
Zic_ | sistpoty|uni: for the orig.tar.gz, I don't understand, I don't touch it, so, I re-upload an other orig.tar.gz who I'm downloading now :) | 05:29 |
sistpoty|uni | Zic_: the question about the data files was, if there are any data-files copied from any commercial stuff, that we couldn't distribute then (because we'd violate someone elses' license) | 05:30 |
sistpoty|uni | Zic_: I only found a link to a tar.bz2... is there one to a .tar.gz as well? | 05:31 |
=== bersace [n=bersace@did75-13-82-243-217-90.fbx.proxad.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||

Zic_ | sistpoty|uni: Oh, => Finally, is not legal ^^ about McGerbale (Mc Donald funny derivate) "Obelisk of the NOD" from other licenced game and Gunther music in the "Crdits" menu ... | 05:31 |
Zic_ | He will fix that in the next release ... | 05:32 |
sistpoty|uni | Zic_: oh, that's bad then... we'll need to wait until that's fixed before we can upload it to ubuntu :( | 05:32 |
Zic_ | sistpoty|uni: It's not a problem, he prefer uploading the next release any way :) | 05:33 |
Zic_ | (the upstream) | 05:33 |
sistpoty|uni | Zic_: if you only downloaded a .tar.bz2, you shouldn't unpack the tar, but rather run bunzip2 and gzip -9 on it (so that the .tar is completely unchanged) | 05:33 |
sistpoty|uni | Zic_: ok, great | 05:33 |
Zic_ | ah | 05:33 |
Zic_ | sistpoty|uni: I download the "orig.tar.gz" in a directory ... with SVN ... So I make the orig.tar.gz myself ... | 05:34 |
=== siretart waves to sistpoty|uni | ||
siretart | :) | 05:34 |
sistpoty|uni | hi siretart | 05:34 |
Zic_ | sistpoty|uni: Err, no, a mistake => I download a directory with SVN, so I make the orig.tar.gz myself | 05:34 |
sistpoty|uni | Zic_: ah, you did an svn-checkout? | 05:34 |
Zic_ | sorry :) | 05:34 |
Zic_ | sistpoty|uni: yes :x | 05:35 |
Zic_ | sistpoty|uni: I do this in the moment of Men Are Ants SVN version, is the same of release version | 05:35 |
sistpoty|uni | Zic_: if it's the same as the release, please use the tarball that's downloadable instead. | 05:36 |
Zic_ | sistpoty|uni: ok :) | 05:36 |
Zic_ | sistpoty|uni: about the Failled Build, you have an idea of provenance of its ? | 05:37 |
sistpoty|uni | Zic_: otherwise you should change the version of the package to s.th. like 0.3.3+svnYYYYMMDD-0ubuntu1 (if it was checked out later then the 0.3.3 release), to make it clear that it is based on svn | 05:37 |
Zic_ | sistpoty|uni: Hmm, I will take the tar.gz release so :) | 05:37 |
sistpoty|uni | Zic_: for the build, I guess you removed the configure file (maybe through make distclean or s.th.), but need it for building | 05:38 |
Zic_ | sistpoty|uni: Else, you speak about a tar.bz2 "I only found a link to a tar.bz2... is there one to a .tar.gz as well?" I don't understand your sentence ... | 05:39 |
sistpoty|uni | Zic_: the download page of men are ants | 05:40 |
sistpoty|uni | Zic_: what can you download there? | 05:40 |
Zic_ | sistpoty|uni: err ... I don't remove the command of clean this time, beacause I use cdbs and the rules is very little :> | 05:40 |
Zic_ | ah, wait :> | 05:40 |
Zic_ | https://gna.org/projects/menareants#options | 05:40 |
Zic_ | :) | 05:40 |
Zic_ | But, in this repository, their is no .gz or .bz2 files ... | 05:41 |
Zic_ | only the SVN | 05:41 |
sistpoty|uni | Zic_: I used the page you refer to in debian/copyright, there was a link to a .tar.bz2 ;) | 05:42 |
Zic_ | sistpoty|uni: I have told the upstream for he will make a tar.gz, It's more simple :> | 05:43 |
Zic_ | a tar.gz of 0.3.3 of course | 05:43 |
sistpoty|uni | Zic_: yay, great :) | 05:43 |
Zic_ | so, for the configure file, what can I do to resolve the problem of building ? | 05:44 |
sistpoty|uni | Zic_: sorry, don't have a clue right now (and since I'm at university right now, I can't testbuild to see where it's coming from) | 05:45 |
Zic_ | ok :) | 05:46 |
=== lionel_ [n=lionel@ip-61.net-82-216-103.rev.numericable.fr] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||

sistpoty|uni | Zic_: you could ask if s.o. else would like to look at the build problem in the meantime ;) | 05:49 |
Zic_ | if you want, upload 34mo in revu is long anyway :> | 05:50 |
Zic_ | sistpoty|uni: for the debian/copyright, I don't modify anything, We will see it on the next release ... | 05:51 |
sistpoty|uni | Zic_: ok, please also add a comment to revu stating that we'll need to wait for the next release | 05:53 |

ademan | There you go vil | 07:51 |
vil | ok, let me see | 07:52 |
kallewoof | crimsun_: In a roundabout way, it is creating the /var/run stuff, but it's happening in the /usr/sbin/synchroedit-exec script, not in the init.d script. Should it be in init.d directly? | 07:54 |

crimsun_ | kallewoof: yes. | 07:58 |
kallewoof | Alright. The reason it's in a separate script is because I'm grabbing the PID via $$. I'll have to figure out another solution. Thanks for the feedback! | 07:59 |
ademan | vil: it probably won't compile unless you've got the libsdl-dev packages among other things, so don't worry about making it compile, but instead go into mgine/includes/mgine/Graphics.h and type Graphics:: after the second : it should seem to lock up for a minute, then a sort of tooltip will pop up with the class Graphics' members | 07:59 |

joejaxx | cbx33: it does not look like it is in there now either | 08:27 |
sistpoty|uni | bddebian: imo you should just remove debian/libparagui1.1.shlibs, dh_makeshlibs should create a valid one for you | 08:28 |

siretart | ajmitch: after upgrading to feisty, mdadm barks with 'mdadm: No devices listed in conf file were found'. Do you happen to know whats going on here? | 09:01 |

=== pirast [n=martin@p508B1296.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
ajmitch | it shouldn't need much | 09:02 |
ajmitch | there's also work blocked on a new udev upload | 09:02 |
siretart | there is a /etc/mdadm.conf in initramfs, with 4 arrays mentioning some uuids | 09:02 |
ajmitch | that should be enough\ | 09:02 |
ajmitch | at times I've had to wait for everything to timeout, and to be dropped to a shell | 09:03 |
siretart | hm. on the 2nd look, my /dev/sd{a,b} are missing | 09:03 |
siretart | grr | 09:03 |
ajmitch | & then run the initramfs scripts | 09:03 |
siretart | first, I need to manage to get my computer bootet | 09:03 |
siretart | boot, even | 09:03 |
ajmitch | the busybox shell in initramfs, that is | 09:03 |
ajmitch | did you tell it to break, or did it timeout? | 09:03 |
siretart | I told it to break | 09:03 |
siretart | I didn't have the patience. ;) | 09:04 |
ajmitch | wait for it, otherwise you probably won't get udev creating /dev/sd* | 09:05 |
siretart | how is the ide driver called nowadays? sata_nv doesn't seem to be enough.. | 09:05 |
ajmitch | & then run /scripts/local-top/mdadm | 09:05 |
siretart | ajmitch: I already upgraded. I'd like to actually use my system :) | 09:05 |
ajmitch | 3 minutes isn't long | 09:05 |
ajmitch | maybe 6 if you're using lvm on top :) | 09:05 |
ajmitch | it's a known problem, not being fixed until various things are in place | 09:06 |
siretart | I'm using root on lvm on raid | 09:06 |
ajmitch | like me | 09:06 |
siretart | hm. so how do I get my /dev/sd{a,b} back for now? ;) | 09:07 |
ajmitch | reboot, let it timeout? | 09:07 |
bddebian | How do I appropriately move the foo.so link from the foo to foo-dev package? | 09:07 |
siretart | mmh | 09:07 |
siretart | fair enough | 09:07 |
ajmitch | or play with udev in initramfs | 09:07 |
=== ajmitch went for the patient option :) | ||
ajmitch | bddebian: foo-dev.install | 09:08 |
ajmitch | don't match on /usr/lib/libfoo.so* in foo.install | 09:08 |

siretart | ajmitch: this 'mdadm: No devices listed in conf file were found.' is still scary :/ | 09:10 |
ajmitch | sure is :) | 09:10 |
siretart | ajmitch: btw, do you happen to know which bugno this is, I'd like to subscribe to that bug | 09:11 |

ajmitch | sorry | 09:16 |
ajmitch | next the lvm script | 09:16 |
ajmitch | (assuming that the mdadm script found all raid arrays) | 09:16 |
siretart | cool. this brought my volumes up. how to boot now? | 09:16 |

ajmitch | it should continue to boot as normal | 09:17 |

crimsun_ | ajmitch: yep, 12 hours and 1 minute. | 11:15 |
LaserJock | crimsun_: they actually let you leave NC? | 11:16 |
jelmer | hi ajmitch | 11:16 |
crimsun_ | LaserJock: aye. I requested this leave 10 months ago. | 11:16 |
ajmitch | hey jelmer | 11:17 |
LaserJock | I don't see why it's so hard | 11:17 |
LaserJock | surely your school lets you take vacations better then that | 11:17 |
crimsun_ | it's not the school that ties things up, it's the agencies from which I have to get clearance | 11:17 |
LaserJock | ah | 11:18 |
crimsun_ | (I'm flying with my folks to Hong Kong) | 11:18 |
LaserJock | oh wow | 11:18 |
jelmer | ajmitch: Any chance you can force an update of gpg keys on the revu machine? It's using a GPG key I revoked :-/ | 11:18 |

ajmitch | you have a new one on launchpad now? | 11:20 |
ajmitch | removed the old key from lp as well? | 11:20 |
jelmer | no, I revoked a couple of subkeys that were on a smartcard that got damaged | 11:20 |
ajmitch | ah | 11:21 |
ajmitch | it's just grabbing the keys from launchpad | 11:21 |
jelmer | that should work - the key listed on launchpad is correct | 11:21 |
ajmitch | ok | 11:21 |
ajmitch | when did you revoke? | 11:21 |
jelmer | Uhm, like 10 minutes ago :-) Is there a refresh rate or something? | 11:22 |
ajmitch | nope, was just curious :) | 11:23 |
ajmitch | syncing now | 11:23 |

jelmer | ajmitch: Yep, that works. Thanks again :-) | 11:32 |
ajmitch | no problem | 11:32 |
Ademan | vil: i thought i was using sun java, i did sudo update-alternatives --config java and selected the sun java, that's all right? | 11:33 |
Ademan | i only needed the sun-java-jre package right? | 11:34 |
vil | Ademan: that updates the java, javac and so on | 11:34 |
vil | Ademan: however eclipse is started with a shell script, which picks one jvm for you | 11:34 |
Ademan | oooohhhh | 11:34 |
Ademan | well that might explain it | 11:34 |
vil | Ademan: sun-java-jre is fine | 11:34 |
vil | Ademan: for example you can put JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun in ~/.eclipse/eclipserc | 11:36 |
Ademan | vil: hrm, ok, maybe we should change that, i mean, shouldn't it just use the java specified by the system? | 11:37 |
vil | Ademan: maybe | 11:38 |
Ademan | it seems reduntant for it to provide its own way to select alternative JVMs | 11:38 |
vil | try ask doko | 11:38 |
Ademan | good point | 11:38 |
Ademan | i see no reason to disallow overriding the jvm on the command line, but otherwise, i woudl think it'd be good to use the jvm the system says to use | 11:39 |
Ademan | does the eclipserc need a shabang? | 11:39 |
vil | nope | 11:40 |
Ademan | hrm, well then it seems to still be slow | 11:40 |
vil | what happens if you run echo $JAVA_HOME ? | 11:40 |
Ademan | nothing, maybe i could set $JAVA_HOME in bashrc just for a test | 11:41 |
=== jdong digs thru scrollback and mumbles | ||
LaserJock | jdong: sorry, I pinged you a while back | 11:42 |
jdong | LaserJock: <PMS> what do you want </PMS> | 11:42 |
jdong | :) | 11:42 |
Ademan | vil: way faster, but i'd say it's still slow | 11:42 |
LaserJock | umm, maybe not them ;-) | 11:42 |
Ademan | i know it's not up to us, but i feel like the tooltip should be propagated in a different thread, so at least it doesn't lock up input | 11:42 |
vil | Ademan: if you are more interrested in the eclipse startup, have a look at `which eclipse` | 11:43 |
vil | i would guess that the hits can be disabled somehow, but i don't know where. also better to have the hints. | 11:44 |
vil | going to bed | 11:45 |
vil | see you later | 11:45 |
Ademan | night vil | 11:45 |
Ademan | good work by the way | 11:45 |
vil | :) thanks | 11:45 |
vil | did you see bug #72212 ? | 11:47 |
Ubugtu | Malone bug 72212 in Ubuntu "Developers don't get enough thanks" [High,Fix released] http://launchpad.net/bugs/72212 | 11:47 |
vil | i don't feel like that | 11:47 |
Ademan | lol | 11:47 |
PuMpErNiCkEl | thanks++ | 11:48 |
jdong | that bug was sweet and thoughtful at first | 11:48 |
jdong | but now it's just clouding my launchpad folder | 11:48 |
LaserJock | nah, we just get more silly bugs | 11:48 |
Ademan | maybe splash screens coudl have credits as well, dunno | 11:48 |
=== jdong heads out again | ||
Ademan | is there a character limit for the description in debian/rules ? | 11:49 |
LaserJock | haha, "Your X.org is not working because of the dedicated work of :" | 11:49 |

jdong | Ademan: it's already there. You have to press left shift, right shift, F8 F9 F10 F1 F1 F1 left CTRL, up arrow down arrow | 11:50 |
jdong | before the splash goes away | 11:50 |
jdong | then the splash list will come up | 11:50 |
Ademan | ah of course! | 11:50 |
Ademan | A B A B B C LEFT RIGHT DOWN START | 11:50 |
LaserJock | man, I was horrible at those | 11:50 |
superm1 | your sure its not B A START? :) | 11:51 |
LaserJock | more or less random patterns and then you have some super-duper weapon of doom | 11:51 |
jdong | LaserJock: I see you use my Mortal Kombat strategy | 11:51 |
LaserJock | my little cousins usually kick my butt | 11:52 |
Ademan | lol, i remember i used to have dark forces, which was basically doom with star wars sprites, and there was this one level where you got lowered into a pit with a kell dragon with only your fist, and I had to type in 'laimlame' (lucasarts i'm lame) before it killed me :-) | 11:52 |
LaserJock | sometimes the "hit all the buttons at once" trick works though and I laugh at them ;-) | 11:52 |
bddebian | Later gang | 11:52 |
Ademan | but yeah, back on topic, is there a character limit for descriptions in debian/rule ? | 11:52 |
Ademan | rules even | 11:53 |
LaserJock | bddebian: didn't even know you were here :/ | 11:53 |
LaserJock | bddebian: cya | 11:53 |
bddebian | :) | 11:53 |
bddebian | I'll be back in a few ;-) | 11:53 |
LaserJock | Ademan: not sure, just don't push it :-) | 11:53 |

=== ajmitch ponders the mysteries of lunch | ||
Ademan | LaserJock: well i was thinking the end user "experience" could really benefit from some embedded xhtml with a standard set of style sheets as part of synaptic or adept | 11:54 |
Ademan | plus longer and more descriptive descriptions would be nice too :-) | 11:54 |
LaserJock | well | 11:54 |
LaserJock | gnome-app-install is supposed to be for that | 11:54 |
Ademan | i suppose, but how many apps does gnome-app-install really show you? | 11:55 |
Ademan | honestly.. | 11:55 |
LaserJock | although i agree that package descriptions could often be improved | 11:55 |
Ademan | i think i installed my first app in ubuntu through it, since then, nothing, haven't opened it in months | 11:55 |
LaserJock | a lot if you want it too | 11:55 |
Ademan | how so? | 11:55 |
LaserJock | it's all .desktop files | 11:55 |
Ademan | seemed very limited | 11:55 |
LaserJock | well, you don't want it to be unwieldly for the user | 11:56 |
=== TwoPints [n=frank@ACD1FC58.ipt.aol.com] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
LaserJock | it's hard with something like 20,000 different packages to give something "easy" for the user | 11:56 |
LaserJock | you end up either telling them what the want or relying on them knowing a pretty good idea of what they want | 11:57 |
=== theCore [n=alex@ubuntu/member/theCore] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
Ademan | right, but honestly i don't think i saw half of the apps that were available to me in synaptic, but maybe that's cause i didn't have universe and multivers at that point... i dunno | 11:57 |
LaserJock | right | 11:57 |
LaserJock | gnome-app-install isn't supposed to give you everything that's in the repos | 11:57 |
LaserJock | it's more under the "telling the user what they want" category | 11:58 |
Ademan | meh | 11:58 |
LaserJock | what makes it even more difficult is that we'd have to go through Debian to change the descriptions anyway | 11:58 |
Ademan | also, why does the user have to manually enable universe and multiverse? i would have thought that at least universe could be enabled by default if it was legal issues | 11:58 |
LaserJock | it's not legal | 11:59 |
LaserJock | and I think they will be for Feisty | 11:59 |
Ademan | ah | 11:59 |
Ademan | ok cool | 11:59 |
LaserJock | but it was originally designed so that users new when the crossed the "supported" vs "unsupported" boundary | 11:59 |
LaserJock | I think | 11:59 |
Ademan | yeah, but there's so much cool stuff in those repos? | 12:00 |
VoX | win 36 | 12:00 |

=== Yagisan [n=Yagisan@60-241-255-163.static.tpgi.com.au] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
LaserJock | virtually all users will want Universe apps I think | 12:00 |
LaserJock | even if they are a couple | 12:00 |
Ademan | one last thing, i heard someone talking about moving drivers out of kernel space and into user space, and that would eliminate the legal issues with binary blobs, and increase stability, i forgot the article, but it was very convincing | 12:01 |
Simon80 | ademan, that's waaay far out there | 12:02 |
Simon80 | and it would only skirt around the legal issue | 12:02 |
=== paran [n=paran@cl-56.sto-01.se.sixxs.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
Ademan | meh, i know that in windows the user->kernel space switch in d3d significantly slowed down rendering | 12:02 |

=== ash211_ [n=andrew@user-11faoge.dsl.mindspring.com] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
Ademan | i think if the GPL wasn't viral linux wouldn't be half of what it is today | 12:03 |
LaserJock | I'm starting to suspect that I'd never want to GPL anything I work on | 12:03 |
Ademan | heh, i'm GPLing my game engine | 12:04 |
Ademan | well, when and if i ever release it | 12:04 |
Ademan | and if i don't get disgusted with my code halfway through it as i usually do | 12:04 |
LaserJock | in the my field we have a couple really good libraries that are GPL'd | 12:04 |
Ademan | LaserJock: what's your field? | 12:04 |
LaserJock | Chemistry | 12:04 |
Ademan | ah | 12:04 |
LaserJock | and I'm seeing some issues come up | 12:04 |
Ademan | well i guess just deal with the license | 12:04 |
LaserJock | because researchers can't use the GPL | 12:05 |
LaserJock | for whatever reason | 12:05 |
LaserJock | and hence can't use the library | 12:05 |
LaserJock | it seems sort of antiproductive | 12:05 |
LaserJock | so people go off and write proprietary stuff instead | 12:05 |
LaserJock | seems like a shame | 12:06 |
Ademan | researchers can't use GPL? wtf... | 12:06 |
Ademan | well yeah, then you "get to" reinvent the wheel | 12:06 |
Ademan | anyways i'm off, i gotta have lunch i'm starving | 12:06 |
Ademan | later all | 12:06 |
LaserJock | yeah, some funding agencies have requirements that wouldn't allow GPL | 12:06 |
LaserJock | though they aren't opposed to open source, I don' t think | 12:07 |
Simon80 | Laserjock, it's not the FOSS community's fault such funding requirements are in place | 12:08 |
Simon80 | .: don't blame them when such requirements hamper productivity | 12:08 |
LaserJock | well, I think it could be the license's fault | 12:08 |
=== stani [n=stani@85.148.236.59] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
LaserJock | the funding agencies requirements weren't unreasonable | 12:09 |
Simon80 | why aren't they unreasonable? | 12:09 |
LaserJock | although I can't remember specifically what they were :/ | 12:09 |
LaserJock | because it wasn't that they said you couldn't open source | 12:10 |
Simon80 | think about it this way - someone releases a chunk of code absolutely for free, with the condition that you don't take the code for yourself without offering your users the freedoms they originally offered | 12:10 |
Simon80 | how can you complain if you don't want to respect those conditions? | 12:11 |
LaserJock | because I want to allow people to use non-GPL licenses | 12:12 |
LaserJock | if I'm providing a library to the world I want to make sure that as many people as possible can use it | 12:13 |
