=== cjwatson works out why mouseemu is broken on his Intel Mac
cjwatsonit can't deal with something that's both a keyboard-type device *and* a mouse-type device12:29
exobuzzcjwatson: that's linux on your intel mac ?12:30
exobuzzcjwatson: via bootcamp, or efi ?12:30
exobuzz(elilo)12:30
cjwatsonbootcamp12:31
cjwatsonyes, Ubuntu12:31
exobuzzone problem with bootcamp..12:31
exobuzzunplug your monitor and try booting12:31
cjwatsonI'll believe you12:32
exobuzzi configured my machine, posted it to the hosting company, and then they told me it wasnt booting.12:32
exobuzzturns out: "It is important to test that your Mac Mini will boot correctly without a screen. In particular, if you rely on the Apple "Boot Camp" firmware update (which provides a legacy BIOS, so that the machine can be booted like a conventional PC), then you may encounter trouble with this, because the VGA BIOS which the machine installs typically blocks trying to communicate with the monitor using DDC."12:32
exobuzzvery annoying12:32
tepsipakkihmm, I diff'ed xorg-server upstream tarball and our orig.tar.gz, and it was like 800kB :I12:33
exobuzzin the end, i got them to switch it to efi/elilo.. actually the hosting guys have it netbooting, so if i make it unbootable they can netboot to a recovery kernel/disk which is handy12:33
tepsipakkithe same version12:33
exobuzztepsipakki: maybe its a big readme :)12:33
tepsipakkiif only12:34
cjwatsonunfortunately current versions of Linux can't drive the framebuffer properly if you boot via EFI12:34
cjwatsonso II'm told, anyway12:34
exobuzzcjwatson: i had a framebuffer kenel patch. but would have though its in main kernel by now (this was 2.6.16 or something)12:35
cjwatsonI think it worked for a while and then broke12:35
exobuzzoh :(12:36
cjwatsonalthough honestly, I haven't tried it personally; I've been focusing on making the bootcamp case work well, since we need that for CD booting anyway12:36
kylemi suspect you need a modesetting intelfb driver.12:36
exobuzzi have 2 mac minis as hosting machines. they are cheap to run, where power is at a premium!12:36
cjwatsonkylem: this is ATI r500, so that would surprise me12:36
cjwatsonthe only option right now is vesafb, crap though that looks12:37
cjwatsoner, vesa12:37
exobuzzcjwatson: you can boot cd from efi, if it has a bootloader on it12:37
cjwatsonexobuzz: not unless you can create an HFS+ filesystem from Linux12:37
cjwatsonexobuzz: if it's a normal ISO9660 CD, you need BIOS compatibility to boot it12:38
exobuzzcjwatson: efi can also boot to fat3212:38
cjwatsonexobuzz: I don't think it'd be terribly sane to make our CD images dual FAT32/ISO9660 ...12:38
cjwatsonexobuzz: at least HFS (and HFS+, if anyone ever does it) you can overlay on ISO9660 with very little extra space requirements12:38
tepsipakkiok, so diffing 1.1.0 and 1.1.1 isn't wise12:38
exobuzzcjwatson: so, to create an hfs fs from linux you can use dd ;-)12:39
exobuzz"heres one i made earlier"12:39
cjwatsonexobuzz: I'm talking about the official Ubuntu CD images here, which we need to be able to create automatically from scratch using only Linux12:40
slomois a MIR also needed for a new package if it only contains code that already is in one or more other source packages in main?12:40
cjwatsonI'm aware there are options available if you can do it by hand with Mac OS X to assist12:40
exobuzzyou cant keep a empty partition image handy for making it ? i mean its once off right ?12:40
cjwatsonexobuzz: no, of course it is not once off12:40
kylemcjwatson, ah, loss. maximum loss.12:40
cjwatsonoh and I don't have root either12:40
cjwatson(on the box used to produce the CD image)12:41
exobuzzcjwatson: but a certain fixed size boot partition would be enough, and then you copy into it what you need ? what am i missing ?12:41
exobuzzcjwatson: of course, im not sure how to bless a hfs+ f/s from linux either..12:41
cjwatsonexobuzz: the fact that the boot loader changes regularly? you can't write to HFS+ meaningfully without being able to mount it, which requires root12:41
exobuzzthere is that12:42
cjwatsonthe userspace HFS+ utilities are read-only to all intents and purposes12:42
mjg59HFS+ support is basically uninteresting while the kernel doesn't deal with EFI terribly well12:43
exobuzzok so.. use bootcamp, but you should include one tip for people who want to use their machines as servers without monitor: "If you need to use the "Boot Camp" firmware, you will need to prepare a simple terminator to convince the machine that a (non-DDC) monitor is attached. All that's needed is to connect a 75 resistor between pins 2 and 7 of the (analogue) VGA connector. The easiest way to do this is to buy a male DB1512:43
exobuzzconnector (a "VGA plug") and appropriate resistor, and solder it between pins 2 and 7 on the connector. Fit a hood over the connector to prevent damage in handling. (You can get all of these parts from Maplin or any other electronics supplier. We can sometimes supply these terminators but we don't keep a stock.)" courtesy of www.mythic-beasts.com12:43

exobuzzmjg59: without that, bootcamp doesnt boot without monitor..12:44
mjg59Oh, sorry, got the context now12:44
mjg59Yes, that's unfortunate. It's also a tiny proportion of the userbase.12:44
exobuzzits a very useful tip.. 12:44
mjg59exobuzz: FWIW, I did a lot of the Intel Mac support for mythic beasts12:44
exobuzzbut i was that tiny proportion at that point..12:44
exobuzzmjg59: yeh think they mentioned you to me..12:45

mjg59Heh12:45
mjg59I had their first Intel Mac12:45
tormodtepsipakki: did you try to apply the old ubuntu diff to the new xorg tree?12:45
mjg59But seriously, EFI interacts very badly with IA32 and x86_64 right now12:46
exobuzzthey sent it to you right ?12:46
mjg59No, I happened to be in the right cafe at the right time12:46
exobuzzmjg59: aah12:46
mjg59They're friends of friends12:46
exobuzzmjg59: how so ? about ia32 ?12:46
tepsipakkitormod: no, I'm just trying to figure out why the tarballs differed, but I had a wrong one12:46
mjg592.6.20 has only just got the calling convention for EFI right12:46
exobuzzmjg59: you know any of the oxlug lot then ?12:46
exobuzzim running 2.6.17 on intel mac.. what shouldnt work right ?12:47
mjg59There's still a certain degree of misery between EFI's memory map and IA3212:47
exobuzzvia efi12:47
mjg592.6.17 is actually ok12:47
mjg59A certain amount of stuff breaks in 2.6.1812:47
mjg59Should be fixed by 2.6.1912:47
mjg59Anyway, I should have test hardware again by next week12:47
tepsipakkitormod: now that I got xorg-server-1.1.1 the checksums match ;)12:47

exobuzzsorry. i mean tormod. not mjg59 01:02
exobuzzi unfortunately bought an acer laptop too01:02
tormodexobuzz: I am not sure it ever will be :) But it is such a bad bug - newbie blocker deluxe01:03
exobuzzlooks nice.. but essentially broken.. there is another nice bug, that if you press the lid button, you get about 10 acpi lid events per second, which fills the acpid logs01:03
exobuzztormod: yes.. very hard with a black screen to do much01:03

tepsipakkifunny, the xorg mirrors have a hierarchy for 7.2, but not the main site01:04
tepsipakkihave to get those from individual/*01:04

cjwatsonexobuzz: (for the record, the installer has nothing to do with that stuff; it's all in the xserver-xorg maintainer scripts)01:11
tormodexobuzz: no it's not. it's not important enough / patch is not elegant enough ?01:11
exobuzzcjwatson: yeh .. i was being generic. i dont know which x.org package makes the initial config :-)01:12
tormodit's in dexconf it can be done most easily01:12
exobuzztormod: elegant? well. its important.. that should be enough01:12

exobuzzcjwatson: ok.. "listen up.  - its nothing to do with cjwatson." ;-)01:13
tepsipakkierm, for instance upstream libice would unpack to libICE-ver, but it should be changed so that the tarball md5sum is preserved.. how?-)01:13
exobuzzcjwatson: if it was down to you, i know it would already be fixed :D01:13
cjwatsonoh, I wish01:13
cjwatsontepsipakki: the location the upstream tarball unpacks to hasn't mattered since some incomprehensibly ancient version of dpkg-source01:14
exobuzztormod: i know this happens on all ferarri and travelmates with ati cards though right ? so we just use like dmidecode and check?01:14
tepsipakkicjwatson: oh..01:14
exobuzztormod: i mean in addition to the gfx card check01:14
mjg59Gah, has that still not been fixed?01:14
tormodexobuzz: checking for that exact card should be enough. fixes 90% I guess, maybe breaks 3%, ok wild guessing.01:15
exobuzztormod: the few that already work, are not harmed as they can go and edit their x.org and remove it, if they are sure.. but its harder to edit with a blank screen, so i agree it should go in.01:16
mjg59It's not a chipset thing01:16
mjg59It's very much an Acer thing01:16
exobuzzwell i always hear the word acer with this problem01:16
tormodactually a few laptops with that card don't need the MonitorLayout line, but I guess they survive with it as well.01:16
tormodmjg59, interesting. is it just the bios?01:17
exobuzzmy monitorlayout is "Option      "MonitorLayout" "LVDS,NONE""01:17
mjg59It's really something that should be fixed in the driver01:17
tormodmjg59, sure but until then? 4+ ubuntu releases useless for a lot of users?01:17
mjg59tormod: And the potential to break it for a load of others?01:18
exobuzzmjg59: cant we then fix it specifically for the laptops we know are broken ?01:18
mjg59Get me an affected laptop and I can try to fix it properly01:18
mjg59It's hard to debug remotely01:18
mjg59And I'm not enthusiastic about adding hacks for individual machines without an understanding of /why/ that's an issue01:19

tormodmjg59, I can set up a webcam on another computer, so you can see if there's light on the screen or not :)01:21

seb128ajmitch: what?09:27

ajmitchseb128: I wonder if that's the cause of some of the udev issues09:27
ajmitchseb128: I was talking to mdke about f-spot :)09:27
seb128ah ok09:27
mdkeajmitch: does the manual still work without it?09:27
hungerseb128: But the move is a bad idea... I get lots of warnings due to missing libx86 during bootup.09:27
seb128hunger: I copied libx86.so.1 to /lib, which fixed everything, I fail to understand why at the moment though09:28
seb128that's a new lib and is supposed to be used by usplash09:28
hungerseb128: /usr is not around when usplash is running... so storing it there is not a good idea.09:28
seb128it should not break the mouse and make the box freeze09:28
hungerseb128: That is udev I guess...09:28
seb128hunger: that I know, I still fail to understand why it's breaking the system09:29
ajmitchmdke: afaict it does09:29
seb128hunger: it should break usplash only09:29
TheMusodholbach: The libgnome-speech3 binary does not need to depend on the espeak package. It depends on libespeak1, which is fine, but it doesn't use the espeak command at all.09:29
tfheenhunger: English has about 1.3 bits of randomness per letter, sha1 gives you a 128 bit hash, so a 98-letter passphrase will give the maximum security you can get using that hash.09:29
hungerseb128: Had that yesterday... all went fine after restarting udev.09:29
seb128hunger: you already said that ;)09:29
tfheenhunger: and it's trivial to have a passphrase with a higher randomness than english.09:29
=== pitti hugs seb128 for finishing bug-reporting-tool
dholbachTheMuso: ok, I'll change that - heno instructed me to do so09:29
=== seb128 hugs pitti
hungertfheen: Yeap... but who has a 98letter password (== passphrase in pam_mount)?09:29
seb128pitti: blocking the spec "implemented" for a menu item was slightly too much no?09:29
TheMusodholbach: Right. All you needed was libespeak-dev, which you did.09:30
mdkeajmitch: ok, i'll give it a check later09:30
seb128pitti: I mean that's a trivial bug fixing09:30
TheMusoI confirmed that the /usr/bin/espeak command is not used by renaming it.09:30
seb128anyway, fixed09:30
TheMusoThe gnome-speech driver interfaces directly with the shlib.09:30
pittiseb128: well, it was a missing thing from the spec *shrug*, but itz done now anyway09:30
dholbachTheMuso: done09:30
tfheenhunger: read again what I wrote.  You could have a passphrase where you replaced chars which would give you a fairly big boost.09:31
tormodtepsipakki: will you post to a ML once you have some packages out?09:31
seb128pitti: it'll likely change again, I don't like the 4 items in a row, we probably need a seperator or a different order or something09:31
tepsipakkitormod: I just sent to ubuntu-devel, but that's just a heads-up post09:31
pittiseb128: that's fine, now that everything is there in principle09:31
TheMusodholbach: Ok.09:31
=== dholbach hugs TheMuso
tfheenhunger: and if you have this on a file, it's still no more secure than how you keep that file.. and even if it's encrypted you still have a passphrase for it, so you can't strengthen your chain that way, only weaken it.09:32
hungertfheen: how so? Even with a totally random password you can not expect more than 4bits of entroy per letter... so a 8char long password is 64bit of entropy.09:32
hungertfheen: my HDDs passphrase is *LONG*, that is not the week point:09:32

sabdflhey guys, i have a question about the new dhclient.conf in feisty10:15
sabdflit has a line like this:10:15
sabdflsend host-name "<hostname>";10:15
sabdflis the <hostname> bit a "special value" which will be replaced with the results of `hostname`?10:15
sabdflor is it just an example? in other words, should i leave my current config of 'send host-name "foo";' or switch to the new <hostname>?10:15
tfheensabdfl: from my DHCP logs, it seems like it replaced it.10:17
pittisabdfl: it's now a magic value10:17
sabdflby "replaced" you mean that is s/<hostname>/`hostname`/? super, thanks tfheen10:18
pittisabdfl: right10:18
sabdfland thanks pitti!10:18
pittisabdfl: that was a long-standing wishlist bug and seemed to have annoyed lots of people, so I threw that in right in time for FF :)10:18
pittisabdfl: if 'foo' is the correct hostname on that system, either works10:18
sabdflnice!10:19
sabdfli've resolved conflicts on that file tons of times10:19
cjwatsonpitti: thanks a lot for flush-syncs, BTW10:19
sabdflnow i can just go with the default behaviour10:19
cjwatsonI created flush-backports along the same lines10:19
pitticjwatson: nice10:19
cjwatsonpitti: I meant to ask, any reason to use cp+rm rather than just mv?10:19
cjwatsonthe syncs and backports directories are group-writable so mv should work10:20
pitticjwatson: just transactional behaviour, if anything went wrong, the set +e would have prevented the rm10:20
cjwatsontrue, fair enough10:20

pitti_ion: well, actually my bad, I released a broken version to -security :/12:24
pitti_ion: fortunately upstream was very quick to release a fix12:24
hileI think good short term solution would be to clean up all lvm and evms stuff from current cryptroot script, let it just block like  now for the cryptoroot device itself and forget udev12:25
iwjhile: Right, you probably don't have time now to do the proper fix.12:26
iwjIn the longer run initramfs init should pass some environment variables through to udev so udev hooks can talk to the user.12:27
hileor could we have something like upstart in initramfs already? instead of ordered scripts, and let udev inform this process that a dependency is now ok, i.e. device is there, which would trigger the query12:29
hilesimilarly all current hooks could just be ordered with this12:30

Hobbseeogra: you really are supposed to be telepathic.12:39
ograHobbsee, now who do you think made you just grab that coffeecup ? ;)12:39
iwjpitti: Well, we have really two options for this process: the reviewer can do the security spadework, or they can check the proposer's.  The latter is somewhat more work overall but is less for the reviewers.12:39
Hobbseeogra: :)12:40
pittiiwj: ideally the proposer would do the initial search, and the reviewer would verify it and do a shallow code review12:40
Hobbseeogra: you forgot to preface with sudo.  sorry, cant do :P12:40
ograhaha12:40
pittiiwj: I don't really want proposers to do a code review12:40
iwjpitti: Right.  So what happened here is that I verified the search and came up with `failed'.12:40
iwjcode review> Quite so.12:41
iwjI think we have a problem with the MainInclusionReportTemplate which is that people seem to think that the right thing is to cut-and-paste it.  Wiki Templates ought to be edited.12:41
pittiiwj: yup, fair enough in this case; however, the security review should just help us to decide whether we can cope with the package; we can't refuse all packages which ever had a single vuln12:41
iwjpitti: Well, indeed so.12:42
ograiwj, i dont even cut and paste :)12:42
iwjSo the report should say `these vulnerabilities [link]  [link] ' which are noncritical especially for us.12:42
pittiiwj: right, the recent reports have been a bit sloppy in that regard in many cases12:42
iwjor some such.12:42
iwjIt might help to rewrite the template in the form of questions, or perhaps obviously false statements.12:43
iwjAfter all, things can be in main even if the sentences in the report template are false.12:44
iwjThe right thing is then for the actual report to describe the actual situation and justify the inclusion.12:44
iwjNote above where our proposer is saying that it is somehow `easier' if the report is identical to the template even if perhaps not entirely accurate ...12:44

tepsipakkisorry, I forgot x11proto-core (7.0.7->7.0.10)06:45
Keybukiwj: sorry, I can give you my full attention now06:53
iwjSure.06:53
iwjI just wanted your permission to reinstate ||: after the call to usplash_write in /etc/init.d/udev.06:54
Keybukthe usplash_write thing; we used to || true those calls on general principle06:54
Keybukbut then usplash_write got fixed so we didn't need to06:54
Keybuksomeone broke usplash_write again?06:54
Keybukwhy does it link to libx86?06:54
mjg59usplash_write really shouldn't06:54
KeybukI can understand usplash linking to that, not the IPC client for it06:54
mjg59Hm. Maybe Colin added libx86 to the wrong bit of the makefile?06:54
Keybuk(and if usplash links to it, it should be in /lib really)06:55
iwjmjg59: Aha.06:55
=== pradeep_ [n=pradeep@59.92.46.170] has joined #ubuntu-devel

=== rraphink [n=raphink@ubuntu/member/raphink] has joined #ubuntu-devel
Keybukyeah, solution would be06:55
Keybuk1) libx86 should be in /lib06:55
Keybuk2) usplash_write should not link to libx86  (only usplash should)06:55
Keybukthen there's no need for the || true06:55
BenCtfheen: device-tree-compiler uploaded...so probably hit NEW queue in a few minutes06:56
Keybukthere's definitely a bunch of things, not just udev, that don't || true06:56
iwjBut ||: is good practice in this case.  /etc/init.d/udev should not bomb out for these kinds of reasons.06:56
Keybuktbh, I don't mind either way06:56
iwjIt's part of the responsibility when you say set -e, to add ||: when appropriate.06:56
KeybukI took it out because infinity nagged06:56
iwjWell, infinity isn't here so if we can't find a good reason I'll revert it :-).06:57
Keybukrevert that on the safe side as well06:57
Keybukyou're right, there's no reason udev should ever fail because of usplash06:57

Keybuk"The high intensity blue LED installed silent 110mm fan inside the heatsink maximizes cooling performance."10:40
KeybukI so read that as the LED maximizes cooling performance10:40
seb128mdke: no need to wait, get the previous source, drop the patch 06 and copy the one from DonS to debian/patches, you can cdbs-edit-patch it then10:41
lifelessKeybuk: so did I10:41
mdkeseb128: I'll probably break that. I'll try that though, ok.10:41
LureKeybuk: lol10:42
seb128mdke: why? just download the patch to debian/patches and use cdbs-edit-patch10:42
mdkeseb128: ok. I just copy don's patch over the existing 06 patch?10:43
seb128mdke: for example10:43

shawarmaAny members of ubuntu-archive around? I've (before UVF) subscribed ubuntu-archive to a sync request, but it hasn't been done yet. Since we're in UVF, I should get an OK from motu-uvf first before ubuntu-archive should be subscribed, right? 11:13
zultfheen: ping...mind pushing xen-meta though?11:13
