holycowdoes ubuntu have a team testing the upgrade path between releases or between multiple releases?02:13
holycowhow is that handled?02:13
tepsipakkiooh, I can run two glxgears instances on ati. the old one crashed02:13
FujitsuUpgrades are only supported from one release to the next, or between LTS versions.02:13
FujitsuAnd there is going to be some kind of testing of Edgy->Feisty, I believe.02:14
holycowFujitsu, they fail VERY badly between dapper and edgy it seems02:14

UbugtuMalone bug 60288 in xorg-server "xorg segfaults in FontFileCompleteXLFD" [Undecided,Confirmed]  02:21
tepsipakkigreat, need to bump epoch on libice, libsm, libxext, libxaw, libxi02:21
tepsipakkithose got "upgraded" on dist-upgrade02:22
Hobbseeoh, it's fixed in 7.2, apparently02:22
tepsipakkiHobbsee: I'm merely packaging it, not "doing" it :)02:23
tepsipakkibut tormod has been keen to see 7.2, so maybe it does make sense02:23
Hobbseetepsipakki: is it in a repo?02:24
Hobbseethe 7.2?02:24
tepsipakkiI'll check02:24
sistpotyphaidros: yes... apt-cache show clamav tells Version: 0.90~rc3-1ubuntu1 for feisty02:24
phaidrosthanx sistpoty 02:24
sistpotynp02:25
phaidrosgeneral: is it problematic to just use dapper+1 packages in dapper (feisty -> edgy) ?02:25
phaidrosmeaning ubuntu+1 & ubuntu , snarf02:25
holycowphaidros, expect it to be trouble02:25
Hobbseetepsipakki: the merged tsuff for feisty02:25
holycowphaidros, generally it will try to pull in system library updates and you will end up with ahosed box02:26
phaidrosholycow, as long as there are no system library dependencies it should be okayish then, right?02:26
holycowphaidros, what you want to be looking for is a  package compiled for dapper or compile and package it your self02:27
holycowphaidros, i will hesitate to say yes but there are no guarantees02:27
tepsipakkiHobbsee: yes, from that upstream bug you'll find a patch which is close to the one in the LP bug, and that is in 7.202:27
sistpotyphaidros: even than it might be troublesome, e.g. if maintainer scripts need s.th. newer...02:27
phaidroshm, recommendation would be to grab clamav 0.9 deb.src from feisty and build in edgy .. 02:27
sistpotyphaidros: yep02:28
Hobbseetepsipakki: cool.  now we just need it in the archives. i'll happily test - that screensaver bug is damned annoying, and i like my pretty screensaver02:28
Hobbsee(which is why i usually use a blank screensaver)02:28
holycowphaidros, actually yes thats best02:28
phaidrosso, then today is the day to learn how to rebuild .debs ;)02:28
Fujitsuphaidros: You might want to check out the prevu package.02:28
_ionDoes anyone know what Keybuk uses for keeping the ChangeLog file updated in bzr? I presume it's a bzr plugin.02:29

phaidroswell, somebody might use prevu to backport prevu to edgy!02:31

=== kro [n=user@pool-72-84-46-79.clrkwv.east.verizon.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel
sistpotyphaidros: the easiest way is apt-get install build-essential, grab source-package (.dsc, .diff.gz, .orig.tar.gz) from packages.ubuntu.com, dpkg-sourc -x *dsc, install build dependencies (see debian/control) and make -f debian/rules binary, but learning how to build packages is quite offtopic here, #ubuntu-motu would be more suited02:33

Hobbseeie, this is development discussion, that's how to start getting involved in development.  also, this == for the stuff in main, motu, for the stuff in universe02:35

Hobbseekeescook: poking the relevant parties until they give in tends to work05:40
Hobbseeahem, did i say that?05:40
keescookheh05:40
BurgundaviaHobbsee: this is the third poke on the bug05:40
HobbseeBurgundavia: add some DOOM!!!! behind it, too.05:41
Burgundaviafrustrated, as it is holding back the complete conversion of my office to Ubuntu05:41
keescookBurgundavia: you might ask sfllaw too.  I know it needs to be uploaded to -proposed first, etc05:41
=== Hobbsee calculates that the SRU's done now, and any time after now, probably wont make it into edgy before feisty is released, at current standards....

Burgundaviasfllaw: ping, re bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/cupsys/+bug/5582805:41
UbugtuMalone bug 55828 in cupsys "PJL output from 1.2.2 client over IPP" [Medium,In progress]  05:41
BurgundaviaHobbsee: that is a dapper bug, not an edgy one05:42
HobbseeBurgundavia: i realise that.05:42
Burgundaviaif it was an edgy one, I wouldn't care as much, but dapper is supposed to be "long term" and all that jazz, hence why i run it in my office05:42
LaserJockI've got a few more edgy SRU's to do05:42
HobbseeBurgundavia: makes it even harder i guess, as most of the devs wont even have a partition of it05:42
Hobbseeyeah05:42
keescookI've got 'em all!05:42
LaserJockthey're a pain in the butt though05:42
BurgundaviaI can see community members not running dapper05:42
Burgundaviapaid employees are paid to keep those dapper partitions around05:43
Burgundaviaalthough the Ubuntu QA is a million times better than Userful's...05:44
LaserJockheh05:44
Burgundaviathanks to rocking people like keescook and sfllaw05:45
keescook:)05:45
keescookBurgundavia: one other idea is to get the debdiff updated for the new-style SRU (using -proposed).  I'll do that while waiting for xorg to finish compiling.  :)05:45
Hobbseekeescook: should only take ~20 mins05:46

BurgundaviaLaserJock: here is a nice sob story. Our company president bought the entire Victoria office 19" widescreen laptops05:48
Burgundaviasounds great, right?05:48
Burgundaviaexcept for one little bug: desktop-multiplier hardcodes 1024x768 into X05:49
LaserJockdoh05:49
BurgundaviaI figured out how to hack it to get support 800x600 and 1280x1024, but not widescreen resolutions05:49
jdongwhoa! feisty  ssh has kerberos support!05:49
jdongwho do I need to hug for that?05:49
jdongthat was a pleasant surprise... ssh'ing to linux.mit.edu and having it automagically log in :)05:50
Hobbseekeescook: nemo_home i cant reproduce that at all05:52
HobbseeBurgundavia: 915resolution, by any chance?05:52
StevenKjdong: Russ Allbery, it's a Debian change that we got when cjwatson merged in 1:4.3p2-705:53
jdongwhee!05:53
jdongruss, thank you, I hope this message psychically gets to you05:53
BurgundaviaHobbsee: no, this is X hardcoding it. We use radeon 7000 or 9250 in all of our computers05:53
HobbseeBurgundavia: ahh.  fun05:53
jdongnow I shall upgrade the entire EECS lab to Feisty05:53
jdong;-)05:53
BurgundaviaHobbsee: unlike most hacks, I have absolutely no idea why we did it05:53
Hobbseenemo_home: does that only occur with teh generic kernel?05:55
=== keescook restarts xorg
=== Hobbsee wonders if it's just activated the off switch of the card or something
Hobbseeto not show up in lsmod would be odd05:56
Hobbseekeescook: did it work?05:57
keescookHobbsee: yawp, xorg works.  :)05:58
Hobbseekeescook: yay!05:58

nemo_homeHobbsee: hey. sorry. didn't realise it would take you so little time to update. was taking opportunity of restored connection to update stuff on her machine.06:10
Hobbseenemo_home: ahhh06:12
nemo_homeHobbsee: all she did, and I paraphrase, was to follow the prompt asking her to reboot her computer. I imagine that it was a scheduled kernel update in stable. after this update her internet didn't work.  I eventually got it running by trial and error and getting her to run the above command with -generic.  I then used the restored connection to note that her kernel name had changed06:12
Hobbseenemo_home: odd.  i dont know why.06:12
Hobbseeit all works fine here, with the kernel update - card flashes, networkmanager finds the card.  it's obviously happening only for some people.06:12

yacoobGreetings. Can anyone tell me what was the reasoning behind making linux-686 package obsolete with linux-generic?02:02
tfheenthe functionality is superseded in -generic02:03
yacooballright, where the optimalization for amd users and such went? :)02:04
tfheenAMD CPUs are generally quite well off with about the same optimisations as Intel CPUs.02:04
yacoobwell, the options in kernel config are there, so I guess they weren't made just for kicks...02:06
yacoobanyway, is there any reasoning put anywhere on launchpad behind this change?02:06
Chipzzyacoob: they're there for gentoo ricers ;P02:06
tfheenno, but it was discussed on ubuntu-devel.02:06

angasulewould it be possible for a kernel upgrade to check what packages depend on it and not upgrade/warn? I'm talking specifically because I had an nvidia driver from another repo (not manually installed), and with the new kernel in edgy I lost X11 (I had to use the console to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst )02:51
Chipzznot supported02:51
=== gnomefreak [n=gnomefre@ubuntu/member/gnomefreak] has joined #ubuntu-devel

=== licio [n=licio@ubuntu/member/licio] has joined #ubuntu-devel
angasuleah, didn't know that one02:53
angasulebtw, I thought ubuntu was considering including nvidia binary-only driver support by default? if so, you'd better support it02:53
Chipzzhow? it's closed source...02:54
angasuleChipzz: what I said earlier: give a warning, so that people are not dumped to the console02:54
Chipzzno02:54
Chipzzhow is ubuntu going to support closed source drivers?02:55
Chipzzit's hard to act on bugreports that way02:55
angasulesame as everybody else who supports closed source drivers :)02:55
Chipzzwrong02:55
angasuleand btw, what I said is clear02:55
Chipzzno-one supports closed source drivers02:55
Chipzzbzzzzzzt'02:55
Chipzzthis is of course, depending on what you mean by "support"02:56
angasuleof course :)02:56
angasuleand btw, I was clear about the 'how'02:56
angasulesay "if you do this, your binary driver won't work"02:56
Chipzzand I was clear that you can install multiple kernels in parallel so your sugestion won't work? :)02:57
Chipzzyou can not force a user to boot a particular kernel02:57
angasuleChipzz: umh, you can't give a warning?02:57
Chipzz14:57 < Chipzz> you can not force a user to boot a particular kernel02:57
Chipzzit will break depending on what kernel you boot02:57
angasulewhen installing a different kernel, give a warning, on *install*, not on the boot menu02:58
Chipzzagain, wrong02:58
Chipzzpeople don't care about kernels02:58
Chipzz(Your grandmother) "What's this kernel this bloody thing is babbling about?" and subsequnt ignore02:59
angasule"proceeding with this upgrade may cause problem with your graphical environment, do you wish to proceed?"02:59
angasuleand dumping her to the console is better?02:59
Chipzzno02:59
angasulethat you don't *like* the warning is different from "it's not possible"03:00
Chipzzit's not that the ubuntu developers don't like it03:00
Chipzzit's the users that don't care and which will proceed regardingly03:00
Chipzz*regardlessly03:00
Chipzz"Yeah yeah whatever" *click ok*03:01
Chipzzthat or:03:01
Chipzz*panic*03:01
Chipzzbottom line is03:01
angasulethe "yeah whatever" crowd will not have an excuse, while the *panic* would *PANIC* at the console03:01
Chipzzin normal situations the kernel and nvidia module are upgraded together, and the system will always boot the last kernel, so no problem03:02
Chipzzyour bottom line: you did something unsupported, not ubuntu's proble,03:02
Chipzzsorry, but you cannot expect the ubuntu developers to account for every possible repository in existance. that's madness03:03
angasulewhat I said wouldn't require that, but a kernel reverse dependency check03:04
geserthe old kernel is still available => deps fulfilled03:04
Chipzzidd03:05
Chipzzlet me reiterate:03:05
Chipzzyou can't have the kernel depend on a specific version of nvidia-glx, because in that case you cannot parallel install multiple kernels03:05
Chipzzyou also can't have the nvidia-glx package depend on a specific kernel, because the depency may be satisfied by another installed kernel03:06
angasuleok, you guys seem as flexible as the #gnu folk, some people actually have to use their 3D cards03:06
angasuleI did not ask for a single kernel version, you keep bringing up straw men03:06

mjg59Yes, I agree that he was screwed.03:16
mjg59But the issue isn't that we don't support binary drivers. It's that if you've installed third-party packages, you're likely to be screwed.03:16

Chipzz(I think :P)03:23
mjg59Yes, ntfs is supported r/o03:24
Enola_GayChipzz: Yeah, but if you have a data partition you need fat32 which isn't so good. 2gb limit, fragmentation and so on.03:24
Enola_Gaymjg59: Chipzz: And afaik the installer uses ntfsresize which could be very bad too03:25
mjg59Enola_Gay: ntfsresize has been tested a great deal more03:25
Enola_GayThe possibility is much more higher crashing the whole partition with this one03:25
ChipzzEnola_Gay: no, because ntfsresize doesn't actually change your data03:25
mjg59Chipzz: !03:25
mjg59Chipzz: It rewrites large chunks of the filesystem03:25
Chipzzmjg59?03:25
Enola_Gaymjg59: The Dapper ntfsresize could make problems with fragmented partions afaik03:25
Chipzzmjg59: allow me to clarify03:25
Enola_GayChipzz: Yes, if the partition is completly defragmented which is not so likely?03:26
Chipzzmjg59: one of the problems with ntfs, as I understand it, is that ntfs supports compressed and encrypted files03:26
mjg59Chipzz: No, that's not relevant03:26
mjg59It's trivial to refuse to touch those. 03:26
=== sistpoty [n=sistpoty@ubuntu/member/sistpoty] has joined #ubuntu-devel
Chipzzthe problem with ntfs-3g is, that when *altering* a file, which may be compressed/encrypted, this may cause data corruption03:27
Chipzzntfsresize as I understand it doesn't actually touch the contents of files, it just shuffles them on-disk03:27
Enola_GayChipzz: Encrypted files is no problem since it could be only read with user login and compressd could be read. Nothing more is needed. Maybe the permissions but no multi user server would use ntfs under linux imho.03:27
mjg59Chipzz: No. ntfs-3g manages that perfectly well. 03:28
mjg59The issue isn't file access. That's very, very straightforward.03:28
mjg59The issue is dealing with filesystem metadata and layout. That's the hard part.03:28
mjg59ntfsresize alters that to a huge extent.03:28
Chipzzhrrrrm, maybe my understanding of the problem is incorrect then03:29
Enola_Gaymjg59: What's with the hidden data like the internet download tag?03:29
mjg59Enola_Gay: All ought to be fine03:29
mjg59Chipzz: It would appear so03:29
Chipzzas I understand it, ntfsresize just shuffles blocks of data, and alters the directory indexes accordingly (in case of a fragmented ntfs fs)03:30
Enola_GayI can't wait until a stable version with Ubuntu is out. So you can resize ntfs and save data on it. That would make linux testing much more easier for everyone.03:30
mjg59Enola_Gay: Indeed. With luck, feisty+103:30
mjg59Enola_Gay: I'll look into making ntfs-3g easier to use, so people can just install it03:31
Enola_Gaycool03:31
Enola_Gaymjg59: But it isn't shipped with Live CD?03:31
mjg59Enola_Gay: No, sadly03:31
mjg59Getting it into ship at this point isn't likely to happen03:32
Enola_GaySo you need Knoppix or something like that for "reparing".03:32
mjg59If you have network access, you can install packages03:32
Enola_GayDoes someone know if a grub reparing function is shipped with the CD?03:32

cjwatsonlast version I uploaded was 19 January, and I'm pretty sure that worked06:01
mjg59cjwatson: There's no gcc-4.0 in the archive now06:02
mjg59Which is a pretty good argument against it building :)06:02
mjg59And using 4.1 /seems/ to make it segfault06:02

UbugtuMalone bug 51518 in grub "grub 0.97-11ubuntu1 segfaults on amd64" [Undecided,Fix released]  https://launchpad.net/bugs/5151806:03
mjg59I'm just trying with 3.306:04
mjg59cjwatson: Looks pretty much exactly like that, yeah06:04
mjg59cjwatson: Right. We either need to fix it to work with 4.1, re-add 4.0 to the archive or fall back to 3.3 or 3.406:05
cjwatsonI think some time spent on the first would be well-spent06:06
cjwatsonwe have a couple of months to release yet, and I'd rather not keep moving backwards06:06
Keybuk"over three months until release"06:06

KeybukI did actually mean to type two06:08
mjg59cjwatson: Gah. And upstream's fix doesn't actually work anyway, so I'm going to revert that and re-add my own.06:11
Robot101iwj: did Xen upstream ever reply/fix the checksum crack?06:11
Robot101just ran into it. /again/. sigh.06:11
cjwatsonmjg59: tried valgrinding it?06:13
mjg59cjwatson: Oh, sorry, not that06:13
mjg59cjwatson: I mean the upstream "fix" for dealing with bioses that pass the wrong drive ID06:13
mjg59cjwatson: 1) the code is never executed because there's a jmp at the start that skips it06:13
mjg592) Even without that, it doesn't work06:14

cjwatsonsure, I can believe that06:14
mjg59So I'll switch back to mine, which is what we carried previously06:15
mjg59The build fixing is likely to be more painful06:15
cjwatsonhence my valgrind question06:16
mjg59I'll get to that next06:16
cjwatsonI realise it's painful with grub due to the simulator business06:16
mjg59I'm trying to get this machine booting first :)06:16
cjwatsonbut from the strace it looks like this is happening just at exit from the simulator or something like that06:16
mjg59Yeah06:17

siretarttepsipakki: how do you configure multihead without xorg.conf?11:10
tepsipakkisiretart: no idea :)11:10
tepsipakkimaybe it isn't supposed to do that11:10
tepsipakkiit detects the device, then uses "Builtin Default" stuff for the configuration11:11
tfheenonce you get monitor hotplugging, you just start some configuration agent which tells the X server to add a second head.11:11

tepsipakkiI wondered why the screen looked strange without xorg.conf.. it used the maximum resolution the monitor was capable of :)11:18
