[02:13] how is that handled? [02:13] ooh, I can run two glxgears instances on ati. the old one crashed [02:13] Upgrades are only supported from one release to the next, or between LTS versions. [02:14] And there is going to be some kind of testing of Edgy->Feisty, I believe. [02:14] Fujitsu, they fail VERY badly between dapper and edgy it seems [02:14] i haven't had a single successful dist-upgrade === Hobbsee grrr [02:14] xserver locked up again [02:15] Hobbsee: feel like trying mine :) [02:15] tepsipakki: i'm thinking about it. i'll check LP first though [02:15] tepsipakki: any plans to get that into feisty? [02:15] Hobbsee: that's up to TB [02:15] tepsipakki: Did you read the logs of the last meeting? They said they'd like it if it gets packaged. [02:15] I don't have an official no/yes yet [02:16] Fujitsu: yes, I read that [02:16] it happens that Debian is packaging it right now as well :) [02:16] so that makes it faster [02:16] in fact xorg-server was in their git for a long time, but I didn't see it first [02:17] holycow: see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DistUpgradeProcessImprovements === jinty [n=jinty@64.Red-83-50-216.dynamicIP.rima-tde.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [02:19] mc44, ah neat, so its a known issue [02:19] tepsipakki: may well be already there. https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bugs?field.searchtext=screensaver+freeze&orderby=-date_last_updated&search=Search&field.status%3Alist=Unconfirmed&field.status%3Alist=Confirmed&field.status%3Alist=In+Progress&field.status%3Alist=Needs+Info&field.status%3Alist=Fix+Committed&field.assignee=&field.owner=&field.omit_dupes=on&field.has_patch=&field.has_no_package= [02:19] holycow: yes === phaidros [n=phaidros@pD9513341.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel [02:20] hi [02:20] is there an uptodate clamav (>= 0.9) as .deb around?

[02:21] Malone bug 60288 in xorg-server "xorg segfaults in FontFileCompleteXLFD" [Undecided,Confirmed] [02:21] great, need to bump epoch on libice, libsm, libxext, libxaw, libxi [02:22] those got "upgraded" on dist-upgrade [02:22] oh, it's fixed in 7.2, apparently [02:23] Hobbsee: I'm merely packaging it, not "doing" it :) [02:23] but tormod has been keen to see 7.2, so maybe it does make sense [02:24] tepsipakki: is it in a repo? [02:24] the 7.2? [02:24] I'll check [02:24] phaidros: yes... apt-cache show clamav tells Version: 0.90~rc3-1ubuntu1 for feisty [02:24] thanx sistpoty [02:25] np [02:25] general: is it problematic to just use dapper+1 packages in dapper (feisty -> edgy) ? [02:25] meaning ubuntu+1 & ubuntu , snarf [02:25] phaidros, expect it to be trouble [02:25] tepsipakki: the merged tsuff for feisty [02:26] phaidros, generally it will try to pull in system library updates and you will end up with ahosed box [02:26] holycow, as long as there are no system library dependencies it should be okayish then, right? [02:27] phaidros, what you want to be looking for is a package compiled for dapper or compile and package it your self [02:27] phaidros, i will hesitate to say yes but there are no guarantees [02:27] Hobbsee: yes, from that upstream bug you'll find a patch which is close to the one in the LP bug, and that is in 7.2 [02:27] phaidros: even than it might be troublesome, e.g. if maintainer scripts need s.th. newer... [02:27] hm, recommendation would be to grab clamav 0.9 deb.src from feisty and build in edgy .. [02:28] phaidros: yep [02:28] tepsipakki: cool. now we just need it in the archives. i'll happily test - that screensaver bug is damned annoying, and i like my pretty screensaver [02:28] (which is why i usually use a blank screensaver) [02:28] phaidros, actually yes thats best [02:28] so, then today is the day to learn how to rebuild .debs ;) [02:28] phaidros: You might want to check out the prevu package. [02:29] <_ion> Does anyone know what Keybuk uses for keeping the ChangeLog file updated in bzr? I presume it's a bzr plugin. [02:29] Ah. [02:29] But that's not in Edgy >_> [02:29] thanx anyway Fujitsu === Arrogance [n=aks@ottawa-hs-209-217-79-61.d-ip.magma.ca] has joined #ubuntu-devel [02:30] prevu sounds fine, somebody volounteering ?? ;) (just joking) [02:31] well, somebody might use prevu to backport prevu to edgy!

[02:34] holycow: see /topic [02:34] lol [02:34] so [02:35] how is this channel different from the motu channel? [02:35] seriously, please don't point to the topic, its not helpfull at all beyond stating channel rules [02:35] ie, 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 universe [02:35] so [02:35] you have no idea how many people dont read the topic, and ask for support in here. [02:35] sure i do [02:35] No [02:35] You don't. [02:35] i also understand why the topic is that way [02:36] Gah. [02:36] Stupid enter key. [02:36] i assumed motus were devels and would be rolled in here [02:36] holycow: differnet people focus on main and universe [02:36] what do devels here focus on ?

[05:50] that was a pleasant surprise... ssh'ing to linux.mit.edu and having it automagically log in :) [05:52] keescook: nemo_home i cant reproduce that at all [05:52] Burgundavia: 915resolution, by any chance? [05:53] jdong: Russ Allbery, it's a Debian change that we got when cjwatson merged in 1:4.3p2-7 [05:53] whee! [05:53] russ, thank you, I hope this message psychically gets to you [05:53] Hobbsee: no, this is X hardcoding it. We use radeon 7000 or 9250 in all of our computers [05:53] Burgundavia: ahh. fun [05:53] now I shall upgrade the entire EECS lab to Feisty [05:53] ;-) [05:53] Hobbsee: unlike most hacks, I have absolutely no idea why we did it [05:55] nemo_home: does that only occur with teh generic kernel? === keescook restarts xorg === Hobbsee wonders if it's just activated the off switch of the card or something [05:56] to not show up in lsmod would be odd [05:57] keescook: did it work? [05:58] Hobbsee: yawp, xorg works. :) [05:58] keescook: yay! [05:58] and I'm still hardware accelerated. whee. uploading... [05:58] :) [05:58] keescook: those affected will be very appreciative [05:58] assuming they're using feisty, of course === asac [n=asac@debian/developer/asac] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:02] hiya asac === bddebian2 [n=bdefrees@c-71-224-172-103.hsd1.pa.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel === Hobbsee [n=Hobbsee@ubuntu/member/hobbsee] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:10] Hobbsee: 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. [06:12] nemo_home: ahhh [06:12] Hobbsee: 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 changed [06:12] nemo_home: odd. i dont know why. [06:12] it all works fine here, with the kernel update - card flashes, networkmanager finds the card. it's obviously happening only for some people. [06:13] Hobbsee: after update what does uname -r return for you? [06:13] -11 === Hobbsee has rebooted now [06:13] huh. === Hobbsee is afk for a bit [06:13] wtf === nemo_home re-updates === keescook -> bed [06:13] I wonder if it is her repo list! [06:13] maybe I broke her machine :( [06:14] I'd followed instructions on ubuntu website for adding unofficial repos so she could play her DVDs and mp3s and such. [06:14] if so I'm really sorry for wasting dev time [06:14] i'ts not a problem [06:14] you're not the only one [06:15] 2.6.17-10-386 is definitely her uname -r - *checks update log* [06:15] <_ion> Hehe, good quit message. === jdong [n=jdong@SIMMONS-SIX-TWENTY-THREE.MIT.EDU] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:20] jdong: you're going to MIT now?

[06:23] it seems to be acting up... refusing to see new mail [06:23] I've not had great success with evo and IMAP [06:25] well, back to using mh :D [06:25] man, I still have to meet the great mako one

Can anyone tell me what was the reasoning behind making linux-686 package obsolete with linux-generic? [02:03] the functionality is superseded in -generic [02:04] allright, where the optimalization for amd users and such went? :) [02:04] AMD CPUs are generally quite well off with about the same optimisations as Intel CPUs. [02:06] well, the options in kernel config are there, so I guess they weren't made just for kicks... [02:06] anyway, is there any reasoning put anywhere on launchpad behind this change? [02:06] yacoob: they're there for gentoo ricers ;P [02:06] no, but it was discussed on ubuntu-devel. [02:06] there is reasoning on the mailing list [02:07] Chipzz, :) [02:07] launchpad isn't used for reasoning :) [02:07] yacoob: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-August/019983.html [02:07] 'reason' and 'launchpad' don't go together you say? :) [02:07] that's not what I said [02:08] hm, this post is interesting, thanks. === cr3 [n=marc@pdpc/supporter/bronze/cr3] has joined #ubuntu-devel [02:10] apparently I haven't build the kernel by hand for way to long - did things like support for processor-specific extensions made their way to loadable modules? [02:11] no, but certain operations are selected at boot-time. [02:12] I'd need to take a poke at .config of this generic kernel... === cassidy [n=cassidy@121.84-245-81.adsl-dyn.isp.belgacom.be] has joined #ubuntu-devel [02:17] still - where and when specific optimizations are selected? [02:17] (asking in the meantime, before I lay my hands on the actual config of this new kernel :) [02:21] The optimisations are generic 686 === jsgotangco [n=jsg123@ubuntu/member/jsgotangco] has joined #ubuntu-devel [02:22] Which, it turns out, are pretty much what you want for any modern processors [02:22] (I knew all of this "technological progress" was one big hype... :) === Zdra_ [n=zdra@226.229-242-81.adsl-dyn.isp.belgacom.be] has joined #ubuntu-devel === kmon [n=javier@84.77.121.27] has joined #ubuntu-devel === chrisle [n=chris@p54BE177A.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel === Keybuk [n=scott@wing-commander.netsplit.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel === kmon [n=javier@84.77.121.27] has joined #ubuntu-devel === angasule [n=angasule@190.49.194.204] has joined #ubuntu-devel [02:51] would 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] not supported === gnomefreak [n=gnomefre@ubuntu/member/gnomefreak] has joined #ubuntu-devel [02:52] also, you can install multiple kernels, but only one nvidia-glx package === licio [n=licio@ubuntu/member/licio] has joined #ubuntu-devel [02:53] ah, didn't know that one [02:53] btw, I thought ubuntu was considering including nvidia binary-only driver support by default? if so, you'd better support it [02:54] how? it's closed source... [02:54] Chipzz: what I said earlier: give a warning, so that people are not dumped to the console [02:54] no [02:55] how is ubuntu going to support closed source drivers? [02:55] it's hard to act on bugreports that way [02:55] same as everybody else who supports closed source drivers :) [02:55] wrong [02:55] and btw, what I said is clear [02:55] no-one supports closed source drivers [02:55] bzzzzzzt' [02:56] this is of course, depending on what you mean by "support" [02:56] of course :) [02:56] and btw, I was clear about the 'how' [02:56] say "if you do this, your binary driver won't work" [02:57] and I was clear that you can install multiple kernels in parallel so your sugestion won't work? :) [02:57] you can not force a user to boot a particular kernel [02:57] Chipzz: umh, you can't give a warning? [02:57] 14:57 < Chipzz> you can not force a user to boot a particular kernel [02:57] it will break depending on what kernel you boot [02:58] when installing a different kernel, give a warning, on *install*, not on the boot menu [02:58] again, wrong [02:58] people don't care about kernels [02:59] (Your grandmother) "What's this kernel this bloody thing is babbling about?" and subsequnt ignore [02:59] "proceeding with this upgrade may cause problem with your graphical environment, do you wish to proceed?" [02:59] and dumping her to the console is better? [02:59] no [03:00] that you don't *like* the warning is different from "it's not possible" [03:00] it's not that the ubuntu developers don't like it [03:00] it's the users that don't care and which will proceed regardingly [03:00] *regardlessly [03:01] "Yeah yeah whatever" *click ok* [03:01] that or: [03:01] *panic* [03:01] bottom line is [03:01] the "yeah whatever" crowd will not have an excuse, while the *panic* would *PANIC* at the console [03:02] in normal situations the kernel and nvidia module are upgraded together, and the system will always boot the last kernel, so no problem [03:02] your bottom line: you did something unsupported, not ubuntu's proble, [03:03] sorry, but you cannot expect the ubuntu developers to account for every possible repository in existance. that's madness [03:04] what I said wouldn't require that, but a kernel reverse dependency check [03:04] the old kernel is still available => deps fulfilled [03:05] idd [03:05] let me reiterate: [03:05] you can't have the kernel depend on a specific version of nvidia-glx, because in that case you cannot parallel install multiple kernels [03:06] you also can't have the nvidia-glx package depend on a specific kernel, because the depency may be satisfied by another installed kernel [03:06] ok, you guys seem as flexible as the #gnu folk, some people actually have to use their 3D cards [03:06] I did not ask for a single kernel version, you keep bringing up straw men [03:06] no, you just don't get it :) [03:06] go read slashdot === angasule [n=angasule@190.49.194.204] has left #ubuntu-devel ["Foer] [03:07] you did something unsupported, it's unsupported [03:07] btw isn't nvidia-glx only the xorg driver? [03:07] geser: no [03:07] geser: also the libGL stuff [03:08] also the libGL stuff that needs to be in sync with the kernel module [03:08] but as long as you have the same versioned kernel module for all installed kernels it should be ok [03:08] tho you can have multiple kernels assuming they are all using the same version of the nvidia kernel driver [03:08] geser: yes but it's not predictable [03:08] fabbione: idd [03:09] and there is no easy way to enforce it === fabbione has been there before [03:09] fabbione: but you have to upgrade your nvidia drivers at some point... [03:09] Chipzz: s/have/can [03:09] fabbione: I hope I was polite enough to the guy? [03:10] Chipzz: i think so.. i didn't read the entire scrollback === shackan__ [n=shackan@host43-30-dynamic.10-87-r.retail.telecomitalia.it] has joined #ubuntu-devel [03:10] I'll agree that it's a nasty problem, but I don't think there's an easy way out [03:11] a warning may be a possibility, but like I said, users will either ignore it or panic :S [03:12] no there is no easy way out without a lot of hackering [03:12] most often impossible [03:13] hrrrm I'm wondering [03:14] would it be possible/appropriate to issue a warning about installing packages from non-ubuntu repositories? [03:14] "Hi, you're installing a package from a non-official repository. This is unsupported and may break your system. Proceed Yes/No?" [03:15] Chipzz: We do support the use of nvidia drivers, but only from our repositories [03:15] Chipzz: ask mvo [03:15] gotta run === fabbione & [03:15] mjg59: 14:51 < angasule> would 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 ) [03:16] Yes, I agree that he was screwed. [03:16] But 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] this may also deal with stuff like automatix etc [03:16] mjg59: that's what I was suggesting anyway :) [03:17] 15:15 < Chipzz> "Hi, you're installing a package from a non-official repository. This is unsupported and may break your system. Proceed Yes/No?" [03:17] 13:55 < Chipzz> no-one supports closed source drivers [03:17] Which is wrong. We do. === givre [n=Florent@APuteaux-152-1-6-212.w82-120.abo.wanadoo.fr] has joined #ubuntu-devel [03:18] 14:56 < Chipzz> this is of course, depending on what you mean by "support" [03:18] Well, it's quite clear what he meant. [03:18] mjg59: I was referring to support in the context of "fix/be accountable for bugs" [03:18] Which is entirely not what he was asking about [03:19] Please don't say things like that to users. It just gives them the wrong impression of what the problem is. [03:19] hrrrm ok [03:19] In this case, it has nothing to do with closed drivers. It's the fact that they installed drivers from a third-party repository [03:19] uhu [03:20] hence my suggestion about the warning [03:20] I'm not criticising your suggestion. I'm criticising your earlier behaviour. [03:20] well, to be fair, I did clarify my point afterwards [03:20] Once he was already confused === abattoir [n=abattoir@cm193.omega18.maxonline.com.sg] has joined #ubuntu-devel [03:21] blah :P anyway... === Enola_Gay [n=enola@dslb-084-057-252-104.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [03:21] hi all [03:22] Is ntfs-3g integration planned for Feisty? [03:22] Enola_Gay: At this point, it looks unlikely [03:22] It's still an rc, so we're still a bit reluctant about using it by default [03:22] Eating people's Windows partitions would be really quite bad [03:22] It could help Ubuntu a lot since data exchange ist much more easier and it makes much sense for Vista. [03:23] mjg59: Ok, that makes sense. === rraphink [n=raphink@ubuntu/member/raphink] has joined #ubuntu-devel === pochu [n=pochu@179.Red-88-7-169.staticIP.rima-tde.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [03:23] Enola_Gay: we do support read-only ntfs access for one way data exchange :) [03:23] (I think :P) [03:24] Yes, ntfs is supported r/o [03:24] Chipzz: Yeah, but if you have a data partition you need fat32 which isn't so good. 2gb limit, fragmentation and so on. [03:25] mjg59: Chipzz: And afaik the installer uses ntfsresize which could be very bad too [03:25] Enola_Gay: ntfsresize has been tested a great deal more [03:25] The possibility is much more higher crashing the whole partition with this one [03:25] Enola_Gay: no, because ntfsresize doesn't actually change your data [03:25] Chipzz: ! [03:25] Chipzz: It rewrites large chunks of the filesystem [03:25] mjg59? [03:25] mjg59: The Dapper ntfsresize could make problems with fragmented partions afaik [03:25] mjg59: allow me to clarify [03:26] Chipzz: Yes, if the partition is completly defragmented which is not so likely? [03:26] mjg59: one of the problems with ntfs, as I understand it, is that ntfs supports compressed and encrypted files [03:26] Chipzz: No, that's not relevant [03:26] It's trivial to refuse to touch those. === sistpoty [n=sistpoty@ubuntu/member/sistpoty] has joined #ubuntu-devel [03:27] the problem with ntfs-3g is, that when *altering* a file, which may be compressed/encrypted, this may cause data corruption [03:27] ntfsresize as I understand it doesn't actually touch the contents of files, it just shuffles them on-disk [03:27] Chipzz: 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. [03:28] Chipzz: No. ntfs-3g manages that perfectly well. [03:28] The issue isn't file access. That's very, very straightforward. [03:28] The issue is dealing with filesystem metadata and layout. That's the hard part. [03:28] ntfsresize alters that to a huge extent. [03:29] hrrrrm, maybe my understanding of the problem is incorrect then [03:29] mjg59: What's with the hidden data like the internet download tag? [03:29] Enola_Gay: All ought to be fine [03:29] Chipzz: It would appear so [03:30] as I understand it, ntfsresize just shuffles blocks of data, and alters the directory indexes accordingly (in case of a fragmented ntfs fs) [03:30] I 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] Enola_Gay: Indeed. With luck, feisty+1 [03:31] Enola_Gay: I'll look into making ntfs-3g easier to use, so people can just install it [03:31] cool [03:31] mjg59: But it isn't shipped with Live CD? [03:31] Enola_Gay: No, sadly [03:32] Getting it into ship at this point isn't likely to happen [03:32] So you need Knoppix or something like that for "reparing". [03:32] If you have network access, you can install packages [03:32] Does someone know if a grub reparing function is shipped with the CD? [03:32] mjg59: That's true. [03:33] any archive admin around, who could look why xmms-sid (binary) hasn't been published for edgy-proposed, while the source is published? (bug #82692) [03:33] Malone bug 82692 in xmms-sid "[SRU] xmms-sid broken in edgy" [Undecided,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/82692 [03:34] It is very hard for a new user to reinstall grub if it is removed from mbr [03:35] Afaik Suse has a Live CD grub entry or something like this for the problem. [03:36] For those of you interested in wireless, we have some exciting hotness lined up in the near future [03:37] Depending on how quickly we can fix stuff up, potentially including an actual free atheros driver [03:38] mjg59: easier configuration of ntfs-3g -> http://givre.cabspace.com/ntfs-config/ . actually in the upload queue [03:38] That would be gerat. [03:38] mjg59: Is this driver compatible with network-manager and wpa? [03:39] Enola_Gay: Yeah [03:39] Well, to the extent that any devicescape drivers are [03:39] mjg59: will it work with new macbooks? :) [03:39] kmon: We'll be working on that [03:39] That's great. Feisty would be the first Ubuntu version which could deal with wpa out of the box afaik. At least from the live cd. [03:39] No guarantees [03:40] it's based on dadwifi right? [03:40] Yup [03:40] I'm having some trouble with dscape drivers and n-m at the moment, but it's a generic problem that we'll have fixed [03:40] Especially since we'll probably be going with iwlwifi rather than ipw3945 [03:40] I thought openhal was lagging behind [03:40] It's behind the closed hal right now [03:41] But ought to be fixable [03:41] It almost works on my (very recent) atheros [03:41] I'm just testing it on older hardware now [03:41] great news [03:41] awesome [03:41] Macbooks have no intel wlan chip? [03:41] Enola_Gay: no [03:42] mjg59, unrelated, is anybody hacking on 802.11n yet? [03:42] Not really === phanatic [n=phanatic@ubuntu/member/phanatic] has joined #ubuntu-devel [03:42] shackan__: Yeah, that would be interesting. [03:42] Intel are committed to d80211 support, and 4965 has n support [03:42] afaik it's a airport card which is based on atheros chipset [03:42] So there'll be no issue with getting generic 802.11n [03:43] Specific hardware support might take a little longer [03:47] Grub reparing would be great.
