| teer2 | Greetings, angelic developers. I have a question about official ubuntu repositories. | 12:26 |
| teer2 | I have an idea for creating a repository for commercial game "demos" that are known to work with a given Ubuntu distribution version. | 12:27 |
| Riddell | somerville32: erase disk | 12:27 |
| mdke | teer2: sounds familiar :) | 12:27 |
| teer2 | Perhaps, this could be included into the official repositories. | 12:28 |
| teer2 | eventuall. | 12:28 |
| somerville32 | Riddell, And you did use the desktop cd? | 12:28 |
| teer2 | mdke: Has this been done before? | 12:28 |
| mdke | teer2: actually, I may have misunderstood. You know there is a -commercial repository? | 12:28 |
| teer2 | I was sent up here to ask about it from the #ubuntu channel | 12:28 |
| cjwatson | pitti: thanks | 12:29 |
| teer2 | mdke: I was told they did not have commercial games listed there. For example, does it have the notorious Doom 3 demo? | 12:29 |
| cjwatson | pitti: the partman log will be more explicit now about why it isn't offering autoresize, although not totally explicit | 12:30 |
| pitti | cjwatson: I believe it only reads the gconf keys at startup; I'll teach it to always read them when mounting instead of caching the values in internal state | 12:30 |
| teer2 | mdke: Will the legendary Quake Wars: Enemy Territory demo be hosted there? These are things I think would benefit Ubuntu if they were offered in a way that was easy for end-users to obtain. | 12:30 |
| cjwatson | pitti: in one of your earlier logs, I noticed that it was running into a known parted bug whereby recent ext3 filesystems (including the ones created by current feisty installer images) can't be resized by parted | 12:30 |
| cjwatson | or even checked, for that matter | 12:30 |
| cjwatson | if you feel like digging into parted code, there's a good project in there :) | 12:30 |
| pitti | ah, that would explain it | 12:30 |
| lifeless | does anyone enjoy digging into parted ? | 12:31 |
| cjwatson | autoresize of ntfs or older ext3 (maybe ext2) should still work fine | 12:31 |
| cjwatson | I have enjoyed it upon occasion | 12:31 |
| mdke | teer2: things are added as the relevant commercial organisations make them available. But in your case, it sounds like something that is better suited to another existing ubuntu repository, like universe or multiverse | 12:31 |
| cjwatson | the code is quite nicely structured - it's just fundamentally rather difficult | 12:31 |
| teer2 | How can I find out information about setting up an Ubuntu repository, please? | 12:31 |
| lifeless | I think its an interesting piece of software, every coder I know has at some point expressed interest in writing defrag/parted/etc | 12:31 |
| LaserJock | teer2: why not just get them into the existing repos? | 12:31 |
| lifeless | speaking of which, I really should get around to updating defrag to work on current ext3 | 12:32 |
| mdke | teer2: that's the wrong sort of information, you need information about how to include something into an existing repository, which you can get by asking in #ubuntu-motu | 12:32 |
| teer2 | LaserJock: How can I do this? I have the ear of many developers for commercial linux games, and if I can direct them on how to submit their demos to the official distributions, then I am sure they would eb happy to do it. | 12:32 |
| cjwatson | lifeless: the main problem with parted is that it seems to have quite a short shelf-life of active developers | 12:33 |
| cjwatson | nobody seems to be able to cope with low-level partitioning code for very long | 12:33 |
| LaserJock | teer2: well, #ubuntu-motu is the place to start | 12:33 |
| cjwatson | but there's nothing else that fills its niche | 12:34 |
| teer2 | LaserJock: Like, there is this game I think is a great example of a recent Linux multiplayer game, Galcon. Small demo, three days of online play. Seems perfect for the official distribution. Just tell him where to send the demo and he will do it. | 12:34 |
| teer2 | LaserJock: Okay, I'm off to ask there. Thanks. | 12:34 |
| cjwatson | well, not so much the official distribution, in that the official distribution consists of free software | 12:34 |
| lifeless | cjwatson: I have been wondering for a while if its reasonable in a conceptual fashion to recast it into a python main loop/ui and bound C libraries for the bits-on-disk mechanics | 12:34 |
| cjwatson | lifeless: the former is trivial, so that's not an interesting project for me; it's the latter that's the actual hard bit | 12:35 |
| cjwatson | all the hard problems I'm aware of in libparted are bits-on-disk, and the language is pretty unimportant | 12:35 |
| lifeless | cjwatson: I think language is important in so far as what developers will touch it. | 12:36 |
| cjwatson | I don't buy that there are a significant fraction of developers who won't touch C yet want to hack on low-level partitioning code | 12:36 |
| lifeless | cjwatson: i.e. while writing disk-bits manipulation code in python is easy to do, will the set of developers that know enough about FS internals to write such code consider contributing | 12:36 |
| cjwatson | the sort of people who like this sort of thing also like things like kernel hacking | 12:36 |
| lifeless | cjwatson: I'm not claiming that, I'm claiming the inverse: that folk prefer to hack on low level partitioning code in C | 12:37 |
| === teer2 [i=teer@outbound.silenceisdefeat.org] has left #ubuntu-devel [] | ||
| cjwatson | oh, right, I definitely think that is the case | 12:37 |
| cjwatson | sorry, I misread your comment above | 12:37 |
| lifeless | :) | 12:38 |
| lifeless | it was rather round about | 12:38 |
| cjwatson | what I meant by "the language is pretty unimportant" was that there's very little in the bits-on-disk mechanics that could easily be improved in terms of e.g. readability or maintainability by being recast in a different language | 12:38 |
| cjwatson | although more comments in that code certainly wouldn't hurt | 12:39 |
| lifeless | mmmm. I disagree, but I dont think the win would be worth the impact in developer-time | 12:39 |
| cjwatson | are you familiar with the code in question? | 12:39 |

| cjwatson | the only thing that I find particularly awkward about its C nature is having to remember to byte-swap stuff | 12:40 |
| lifeless | oh yay, gpg gone into lalala land | 12:40 |
| cjwatson | that's only really while physically reading and writing, though | 12:41 |

| mardi_soir | but non ping avaible | 06:17 |

| Mithrandir | ogra: sure. | 01:22 |
| ogra | thanks ! :) | 01:22 |
| Mithrandir | ogra: tbh, the 18-55 isn't very good lens, so I think I'd recommend the 18-200 or if you don't want to switch, a 70-200 with VR. | 01:22 |
| Mithrandir | hmm, the 70-200 is probably expensive, it's f2.8 | 01:23 |
| ogra | i thought about a 55-200 ... to just have the rest of the range | 01:23 |
| Mithrandir | nikon at least doesn't seem to have anything 55-200? | 01:23 |
| ogra | hmm, i think they have a DX lens with that range ... | 01:24 |
| Mithrandir | indeed, they do | 01:24 |
| Mithrandir | cheap, not very birght | 01:24 |
| Mithrandir | bright, even | 01:24 |
| Mithrandir | (~250) | 01:24 |
| ogra | yeah ... | 01:25 |

| Mithrandir | it's around 800 or so, but has VR too. | 01:27 |
| Mithrandir | it's pure love. | 01:27 |
| Mithrandir | I have one, so you can try that. | 01:27 |

| seanh | I'm writing an extension module for Python, and wandering the best thing to do is on Ubuntu. Should I install the Python source from the Ubuntu software channel and work in that, or should I download the Python source from python.org and work on it in my homedir? | 02:45 |
| seanh | and what will happen if I download Python and build it in my homedir, will this override the version of Python installed in the package manager? So should I uninstall Python before building it? | 02:46 |
| pitti | seanh: if you install it to /usr/local, it should override the Ubuntu one | 02:47 |
| === rob [i=RobertSt@freenode/staff/rob] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| pitti | seanh: except for ubuntu shipped programs, since they often hardcode the interpreter path | 02:47 |
| seanh | so the ubuntu one is installed somewher other than /usr/local, but a version installed in /usr/local would normally be used instead? | 02:48 |
| pitti | seanh: if you just call 'python', or use the hashbang '#!/usr/bin/env python', your version will be used | 02:49 |
| pitti | but that's really #ubuntu stuff | 02:49 |

| pitti | ogra: i. e. it works *very* poorly on our current kernels | 03:01 |

| Mithrandir | mdke: I can't process https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-docs/+bug/74555 until it's been approved by a SRU team member. | 03:02 |
| sivang | doko: do we have anywhere tasks to be done for the python transition for folks who wanna help? | 03:02 |
| Ubug2 | Malone bug 74555 in ubuntu-docs "Stable release update" [Medium,Confirmed] | 03:02 |
| pitti | ogra: because our kernel doesn't have preemption and a small TZ, and pulseaudio's default frame size is too small for that | 03:02 |
| ogra | the only thing i saw was the /tmp/.esd/socket from flash blocking esound support, but thats fixed with flash9 | 03:02 |
| doko | sivang: no | 03:02 |
| Riddell | doko: good luck then | 03:02 |
| pitti | ogra: but since we do not install it by default this doesn't worry me too much for now | 03:03 |
| ogra | please tell me if you dont see it entering main during feisty, so i can focus on other features | 03:04 |
| ogra | (i thought it all was ok until now) | 03:04 |
| cjwatson | Mithrandir: if it's the earlier diff with the changes described by me in the bug report, it's fine | 03:05 |
| pitti | ogra: as I said, I just didn't find time for MIR (or wasn't poked hard enough about pulse); I don't have a compelling argument to deny it | 03:05 |
| pitti | ogra: especially if you want it in edubuntu and it does good things for you, then it's fine for me | 03:05 |
| cjwatson | Mithrandir: i.e. http://librarian.launchpad.net/5252310/edgy-updates.diff + fix upload target + maybe adjust version number + refer to bugs in changelog | 03:05 |

| pitti | ogra: oh, I just told you the biggest problem I have with it | 03:07 |
| ogra | ah, ok | 03:07 |
| pitti | it's big enough to not install it by default (amongst breaking compat with oss and multiuser), but shipping in main is fine | 03:07 |
| ogra | great | 03:08 |
| ogra | :) | 03:08 |
| pitti | still, I think we need to do something about the default fragsize | 03:08 |
| pitti | at least as long as we don't ship preempting kernels with our desktops | 03:09 |
| ogra | well | 03:09 |
| ogra | i use the -386 kernel with ltsp (at least i pan to do that again) ... | 03:10 |

| dholbach | gnome-bluetooth (together with nautilus-sendto) is for sending and receiving single files | 04:44 |
| dholbach | multisync (dunno if that works - never touched in 2-3 years) is for synchronisation | 04:45 |

| stdin | hi, anyone here know why mplayer/mencoder is in multiverse not universe ? | 05:08 |
| Lathiat | because it has non-free code | 05:10 |
| pitti | stdin: mainly due to patent issues | 05:10 |
| Lathiat | well, yeh i guess thats more specific | 05:10 |
| pitti | Lathiat: hm, it's all free software AFAIK | 05:10 |
| Lathiat | i think it also depends on other stuff in multiverse | 05:10 |
| pitti | it's a bit hypocritic, though; xine has more or less the same code and is in main/universe | 05:10 |
| Lathiat | which has more patenty fun | 05:11 |
| Lathiat | pitti: hrm i thought some of the libraries it can use is nonfree stuff etc but i could be wrong and am far from authorative on the issue :) | 05:11 |
| Lathiat | or that stuff may be left out of the package too | 05:11 |
| pitti | well, it can use w32codecs, but doesn't ship it | 05:12 |

| siretart | Lathiat: mplayer does not contain non-free code, and does not depend on any non-free code | 05:14 |
| doko | pitti: thanks | 05:14 |
| siretart | Lathiat: I personally don't think it belongs to multiverse, but rather to universe | 05:14 |
| stdin | the app itself is under gpl | 05:14 |
| Lathiat | doe sit depend on anything in multiverse? | 05:15 |
| siretart | nope | 05:15 |
| Lathiat | hrm ok | 05:15 |
| siretart | not that I knew | 05:15 |
| pitti | doko: oh dear, myspell, ispell, aspell, and now hunspell? | 05:15 |
| Lathiat | i was completely wrong so please ignore me thanks | 05:15 |
| Lathiat | :) | 05:15 |
| siretart | Lathiat: in debian mplayer is in main, btw. | 05:15 |
| pitti | siretart: uh, since when? | 05:15 |
| siretart | Lathiat: the only difference is, that in debian, mencoder was removed | 05:15 |
| stdin | it suggests w32codecs and libdvdcss, but it doesn't depend on them | 05:16 |
| pitti | ah | 05:16 |
| siretart | pitti: since a few months | 05:16 |
| Lathiat | lame is in universe | 05:16 |
| doko | pitti: trying to drop myspell. enchant already depends on it, OOo will depend on it, firefox needs to be done | 05:16 |
| Lathiat | s/universe/multiverse | 05:16 |
| Lathiat | lame is in multiverse | 05:16 |
| siretart | pitti: there were indeed some remaining licencing issues, like the tremor issue, but they were sorted out upstream | 05:16 |
| Lathiat | libmp4v2-0 (faad2) is also | 05:16 |
| Lathiat | not to say none of those could move | 05:16 |
| pitti | doko: but I assume/hope hunspell uses the same dictionary packages as myspell? | 05:17 |
| siretart | pitti: AFAIK debian ftp-master told the maintainer, that he would rather approve an mplayer package without mencoder, but wouldn't reject an mencoder at once either | 05:17 |
| doko | pitti: yes | 05:17 |
| siretart | pitti: so the maintainer dropped mencoder for getting mplayer into etch | 05:17 |
| pitti | siretart: too bad, mencoder is the only sane encoder that actually worked for me | 05:17 |
| pitti | apart from thoggen of course, but that takes two years to encode a movie | 05:18 |
| Adri2000 | Mithrandir: I usually do that, I didn't for atlas3 because it was a rebuild, there was no ubuntu change. I'll subscribe u-u-s to ack it | 05:18 |
| siretart | well, its really a pitty, because ffmpeg is in debian/main as well, and does also contain various mpeg encoders | 05:18 |
| siretart | and so far, there were no legal problems | 05:18 |
| siretart | so I think it might be okay to have mencoder in debian as well, but that's not my call to decide | 05:19 |
| siretart | actually, I didn't really investigate our mplayer package enough to ask for promotion of mplayer in ubuntu to universe. I rather care for xine, you know ;) | 05:19 |
| pitti | siretart: historically the debate xine vs. mplayer and main has mainly been on a personal flamewar and upstream attitude level, I didn't actually see a compelling legal argument | 05:19 |
| === glatzor [n=sebi@p57AEE076.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| siretart | pitti: the legal argument are the mpeg encoders, espec. stuff for mpeg 1 level 3 (aka mp3) and mpeg 4 encoders and aac stuff | 05:20 |

| === ivoks [n=ivoks@1-221.dsl.iskon.hr] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| siretart | pitti: that they were actively enforced patents | 05:21 |
| pitti | "it's ok to ship stuff I like in main, and I dislike in universe, although both contain patented algorithms"? | 05:21 |
| pitti | ah, and those encoders aren't in xine? | 05:21 |
| siretart | in the sense, that fraunhofer (and others) are charging for them | 05:22 |
| siretart | pitti: xine doesn't encode | 05:22 |
| siretart | it only decodes | 05:22 |
| pitti | ok | 05:22 |
| siretart | which seems to be a difference to the patent holders | 05:22 |
| siretart | and mplayer in debian decodes only as well | 05:22 |

| siretart | pitti: e.g. aspectc++. Upstream lately got contacted with an email "how can you redistribute ac++ without paying fees to gregor kiczales?" - the answer is: he didn't sue, and in europe, there are no software patents | 05:38 |
| siretart | pitti: it isn't even clear, if their patents are valid at all! | 05:39 |
| === ogra sees his feisty-devel mailbox explode .... | ||

| === pike_ [i=pike@server1.freeshells.ch] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| siretart | pitti: for ffmpeg: the debian maintainer is rather conservative, and disables/removes codecs, from which he had evidence of lawsuits. | 05:40 |
| pitti | siretart: they are probably valid in some countries? | 05:40 |
| siretart | pitti: most probably valid in us, but not (yet) in europe | 05:40 |
| siretart | but even there it is unclear, because no one has gone to court with that case | 05:40 |
| siretart | about most potential patents we are facing wrt mencoder, (at least I think so) | 05:41 |
| pitti | siretart: hm, but I agree that decoders are more important to have in a distro | 05:42 |
| pitti | siretart: since there is ogg, I never encoded anything into mp3 any more | 05:42 |
| siretart | pitti: even ogg isn't patent free | 05:42 |
| pitti | siretart: and if thoggen wasn't so exaggeratingly slow, I wouldn't need mencoder either any more | 05:42 |
| pitti | siretart: I thought it was designed to be? *darn* | 05:43 |
| siretart | pitti: according to ffmpeg upstream (from where I have this statement), it is nearly impossible to make any efficient encoding without touching any patents | 05:43 |
| pitti | hm, true | 05:44 |
| siretart | pitti: as I said, it is unclear if the patents, which mencoder or thoggen or what ever coudl violate, are valid at all, because nobody has sued yet. and very few are interested in finding that out :/ | 05:44 |
| siretart | so the ffmpeg/mplayer devs are very dissapointed that most distributions refuse to ship their software, or that folks are telling, that their software was non-free. | 05:45 |
| siretart | but well, they have a strange attitude anyway :/ | 05:45 |

| gnomefreak | i did | 07:39 |
| gnomefreak | in a very scary way but i did :) | 07:39 |
| seb128 | doesn't boot? | 07:40 |
| seb128 | WTH? | 07:40 |
| seb128 | what is broken? | 07:40 |
| seb128 | lot of packages are not installable or what to be removed | 07:40 |
| seb128 | but that should not break the world | 07:40 |
| gnomefreak | downgrading python seems to work atm. seb128 it boots for most people atm but we are leaving it there waiting on X adn usplash and stuff | 07:41 |
| === ogra wonders what seb128 is referring to with "doesn't boot" | ||
| seb128 | ogra: | 07:42 |
| seb128 | "Feisty is very broken at the moment - prepare to chroot in if any of the updates have broken your system so it doesn't boot. Please DO NOT UPDATE YOUR FEISTY TODAY!!!" | 07:42 |
| seb128 | that's from the topic of #ubuntu+1 | 07:42 |
| ogra | oh, the topic | 07:42 |
| gnomefreak | yep | 07:42 |
| ogra | well it should still boot ... | 07:43 |
| gnomefreak | atm for most it does but very early it didnt boot | 07:43 |
| dholbach | doko says something about the atheros chipset? | 07:43 |
| thom | madwifi causes the kernel to BUG | 07:44 |
| ivoks | so does kvm-intel here too :) | 07:44 |
| seb128 | gnomefreak: I would be curious to know what breaks the build still, that need to be fixed, I doubt that's the python transition | 07:45 |
| gnomefreak | seb128: the bigggest issue today is python 2.5 but i havent been hit by that bug (not real sure why) | 07:45 |
| ogra | but the python stuff is very very unlikely to prevent you from booting | 07:46 |
| gnomefreak | seb128: the kernel boots on most of the systems but there are still a few people saying they cant boot it | 07:46 |
| gnomefreak | ogra: differnt issue | 07:46 |
| ogra | right | 07:46 |
| ogra | but unidentified yet it seems | 07:46 |
| seb128 | gnomefreak: well; the topic is scary and I don't have the feeling that feisty is that broken | 07:46 |
| gnomefreak | the python has nothing to do with booting. i dont know who added the non booting line but im leaving it because some people still cant | 07:47 |
| gnomefreak | python is affecting X it seems though | 07:47 |
| gnomefreak | all i added was dont do updates today | 07:47 |
| ivoks | maybe 'doesn't boot' is derivation from 'gnome-desktop is broken' | 07:47 |
| gnomefreak | iirc the non booting was due to initramfs-tools that was already fixed (atleast here) | 07:49 |

| ogra | crimsun, pong | 10:51 |
| crimsun | ogra: hi | 10:51 |
| ogra | hey | 10:51 |
| ogra | i switched my ltsp clients to pulse | 10:51 |
| ogra | using an asoundrc with pcm and ctl entries | 10:52 |
| ogra | but apparently the asa mixer doesnt work | 10:52 |
| ogra | *alsa | 10:52 |
| crimsun | as in `alsamixer'? | 10:52 |
| ogra | no as in the panel applet | 10:53 |
| crimsun | err, which panel applet, pulse's? | 10:53 |
| ogra | no, gnomes | 10:54 |
| ogra | gnomes volume control applet ... | 10:54 |
| crimsun | ok, these are thin clients that lack local audio devices, correct? | 10:54 |
| ogra | no, they have local audio devices | 10:55 |
| ogra | thats where the sound comes out | 10:55 |
| ogra | the user logs via ssh -X into the server from the client | 10:55 |
| ogra | gnome-session is running on the server and ssh -X forwards the display to the client | 10:55 |
| ogra | pulse is started on the client and PULSE_SERVER is set to point to the client on login | 10:56 |
| ogra | gstreamer is set to alsa | 10:56 |
| crimsun | instead of pulse? | 10:56 |
| ogra | and alsa uses the asoundrc (in ~/ for the testing, but that shouldnt have any influence i think) | 10:56 |
| ogra | works perfecttly fine ... apart from volume control | 10:57 |
| ogra | the asoundrc has: | 10:57 |
| ogra | pcm.!default { | 10:57 |
| ogra | type pulse | 10:57 |
| ogra | } | 10:57 |
| ogra | ctl.!default { | 10:57 |
| ogra | type pulse | 10:57 |
| ogra | } | 10:58 |
| crimsun | and ``aplay /usr/share/sounds/startup.wav'' is audible, correct? | 10:58 |
| ogra | hmm, i didnt try | 10:58 |
| === zul [n=chuck@CPE0006258ec6c1-CM000a73655d0e.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| ogra | but the login sound (gstreamer) works and i can listen to radio through rhythmbox just fine | 10:58 |
| ogra | the gstreamer-properties testsound works as well | 10:59 |
| crimsun | right, GSt should work fine if you've installed and selected the pulse sink and source for it | 10:59 |
| ogra | i just cant adjust the main volume through the mixer applet | 10:59 |
| ogra | i didnt | 10:59 |
| ogra | i used the alsasink and the asoundrc | 10:59 |
| ogra | but i tested with the pulsesink and indeed that wors as well | 10:59 |
| ogra | *works | 11:00 |
| === sahin_h [n=ezaz@dsl5402ABEB.pool.t-online.hu] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| crimsun | ok, so two tests: 1) Does that aplay command above work? (it should) 2) Does selecting a different [pulse] device in Volume Applet> Preferences affect the situation? | 11:01 |
| === cr3 [n=marc@pdpc/supporter/bronze/cr3] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| ogra | ok, i'll try that, i'm sadly not near any thin client now, thanks for the hints i didnt think about changing the mixer device | 11:03 |
| crimsun | what I recommend using instead of the Volume Applet is Pulse's Device Chooser applet | 11:04 |

| ogra | hmm, i dont want to tweak the defaults of the desktop if possible | 11:05 |
| crimsun | ok | 11:06 |
| ogra | users may log in on thin clients as well as directly on the server ... so the settings should be the same as much as possible | 11:06 |
| ogra | thats why i try to only tweak stuff in the lowest leve | 11:06 |
| ogra | *level | 11:06 |
| === somerville32 [n=somervil@ubuntu/member/somerville32] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| crimsun | I know the Volume Applet works here, so it sounds like there's at least an environment variable difference if not also the fact that I'm not logging into an LTSP server | 11:07 |
| ogra | well, the volume applet would work if i played sound on the server ... it just doesnt seem to work over the network ... but i'll try changing the settings first and then see how i can achieve such a setup witout breaking on non-ltsp desktops | 11:08 |
