[09:25] <saispo> hi
[09:25] <saispo> cjwatson: have you got two minutes for me ?
[11:22] <cjwatson> saispo: sure
[11:43] <CIA-4> ubiquity: cjwatson * r1822 ubiquity/ (bin/ubiquity debian/changelog ubiquity/frontend/gtkui.py): merge changes from train
[11:50] <saispo> cjwatson: how can i setup automique french keyboard at boot cd ?
[11:51] <saispo> cjwatson: i hack debian-cd for include universe and all work :)
[11:51] <cjwatson> saispo: what release?
[11:51] <cjwatson> excellent
[11:51] <saispo> edgy
[11:51] <cjwatson> saispo: boot with console-setup/layout=fr
[11:51] <saispo> yes
[11:51] <saispo> but when i type f6
[11:51] <saispo> i have an english keybord
[11:51] <cjwatson> er, sorry, that's not right
[11:51] <cjwatson> see
[11:52] <cjwatson> https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/installation-guide/i386/preseed-contents.html#preseed-l10n
[11:52] <cjwatson> oh, for the F6 bit, you can put 'fr' in /isolinux/lang
[11:53] <saispo> ok thks :)
[11:53] <saispo> now i play with logo :)
[11:53] <saispo> it's too long to mirror ubuntu...
[11:53] <cjwatson> you *might* find that /isolinux/lang will get passed through to the kernel as well, but I'm not sure if that worked properly in edgy
[11:54] <saispo> i think not :)
[11:54] <cjwatson> might do, actually
[11:54] <cjwatson> edgy didn't work for stuff like pt_BR but I think it worked for fr
[11:54] <cjwatson> unless you have specific information to the contrary
[11:54] <saispo> KBDMAP fr.kmp and this in isolinux.cfg ?
[11:55] <cjwatson> where did you get KBDMAP?
[11:55] <cjwatson> no
[11:55] <saispo> k
[11:55] <saispo> an example from  website
[11:55] <cjwatson> just 'fr' on its own without the quotes in /isolinux/lang like I said
[11:55] <cjwatson> don't get creative
[11:55] <cjwatson> what website where?
[11:55] <saispo> http://www.frogdev.info/gentoomove/index.php?lien_en_cours=gentoomove
[11:55] <saispo> in french excuse me
[11:55] <cjwatson> gentoo != ubuntu
[11:55] <saispo> yep
[11:56] <saispo> but use hacked ubuntu gfxboot and isolinux ?
[11:56] <cjwatson> ?
[11:56] <cjwatson> the KBDMAP directive is in standard syslinux, but it's a different kind of keymap and doesn't apply to gfxboot
[11:56] <cjwatson> gfxboot comes from SuSE
[11:57] <cjwatson> Ubuntu uses broadly the SuSE gfxboot patches to syslinux, with a few minor differences
[11:57] <saispo> k
[11:57] <cjwatson> however the Ubuntu gfxboot *theme* is very much different from anything else
[11:57] <cjwatson> and in this context the theme is not just the logo and stuff
[11:57] <saispo> for putting 'fr' in isolinux/lang, i must modify boot-i386 ?
[11:57] <cjwatson> the theme also implements command-line option handling, gfxboot language and keyboard handling, extra arguments in isolinux.cfg, all kinds of weird stuff
[11:58] <cjwatson> yes
[11:58] <saispo> ok :)
[11:58] <saispo> i will try
[11:58] <saispo> i see the end of the tunnel :)
[12:03] <saispo> after all cosmetics, i will try kickseed for detecting first hard drive for automatic partition
[12:08] <saispo> cjwatson: yes ! the hack for french keyboard work fine :)
[12:13] <cjwatson> great
[12:14] <saispo> just a problem with the logo :)
[12:15] <saispo> i convert my png but not working
[12:15] <saispo> a size is required ?
[12:21] <cjwatson> don't recall right now, but probably, just make it the same size and colour depth as the Ubuntu one
[12:24] <saispo> k
[12:56] <CIA-4> ubiquity: cjwatson * r1823 ubiquity/debian/ (changelog ubiquity.install-any): * Really install the apport hook.
[02:12] <cr3> can casper be mounted over nfs? the problem I'm encountering is that in casper-bottom, mountpoints are being setup way before networking
[02:30] <cjwatson> cr3: you want Mithrandir for that
[02:33] <cr3> cjwatson: cheers, I'll talk to the robot princess :)
[03:05] <CIA-4> ubiquity: cjwatson * r1824 ubiquity/ (configure configure.ac): bump to 1.3.15
[03:08] <CIA-4> ubiquity: cjwatson * r1825 ubiquity/ (bin/ubiquity debian/changelog):
[03:08] <CIA-4> ubiquity: * Switch the new partitioner on by default. As above, use 'ubiquity
[03:08] <CIA-4> ubiquity:  --old-partitioner' to disable it.
[03:09] <evand> hooray!  No more old partitioner.
 clunkier than the old one by the time we release?
[03:11] <evand> cjwatson: I have not given up on investigating that error, but I am currently more focused on adding needed functionality to m-a to meet the FeatureFreeze deadline.  If you think this is a bad approach, just let me know.
 I don't think it's possible to be clunkier than the old one for very long
[03:11] <evand> hahaha
[03:11] <cjwatson> absolutely target FF
[03:11] <cjwatson> is there anything you're blocked on me for? Oslo wiped me out as far as keeping up was concerned
[03:12] <CIA-4> ubiquity: cjwatson * r1826 ubiquity/debian/changelog: releasing version 1.3.15
[03:13] <evand> I don't believe so, if I understand what you're asking.  The Ubiquity code is ready to go in except for that exception that crashes Ubiquity when m-a is run with the old partitioner.  Updated copies of ma-ask and ma-apply will be needed for it to work though.
[03:14] <evand> And as I mentioned above, I'm trying to add as much functionality to m-a itself as possible and get a new release out before FF.
[03:14] <cjwatson> let me know when you need uploads
[03:14] <evand> cjwatson: will do, thanks
[03:22] <evand> oh, I should note that I haven't done any work on the kdeui end.  I'm not sure if I'll have time for that as it also requires a lot of work in m-a, but I'll try after everything else is done.
[03:48] <cjwatson> it's not a blocker
[03:49] <cjwatson> in extremis, m-a for just gtk is better than m-a for nothing
[03:50] <evand> indeed
