Tonio_Mithrandir: probably another package accepted, since there is no reason to reject this appart from that12:11
Tonio_Mithrandir: the only thing I changed is add missing builddep to fix ftbfs12:12
BenCsuperm1: Don't rev the changelog12:13
superm1Benc, I saw https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild?highlight=%28kernel%29 after pinging you12:13
BenCsuperm1: Your patch should not touch anything in debian/* (at least what you send me shouldn't)12:13
superm1i'm building that way locally12:13
BenCno need, that's meant for people who want to keep their changes even after an update from the repo12:13
superm1oh?12:14
BenCs/repo/archive/12:14
superm1well whats the appropriate way to make sure this patch builds right then?12:14
BenCsuperm1: the parts to change the changelog are for when you don't want ubuntu kernels to overwrite your own12:14
BenCsuperm1: apply patch, "fakeroot debian/rules binary-debs flavours=generic"12:14
superm1okay thats what i was doing 12:15

superm1BenC, and if the build fails, is there an easy way for me to make it pick back up where it left off after fixing the file?  (hasn't gotten to the ubuntu/* directory yet, but in case it does)12:19
superm1i'd imagine debian/rules binary-debs calls debian/rules clean first12:20

glickhey can anyone recommend any reading for someone wanting to get started in kernel devel?12:41
Hobbseeglick: probably ask someone like BenC or look on the wiki12:42

Fujitsumpt: We haven't had a whole lot of bugs from the menu option yet... But that's probably because the current audience is more technically competent.12:45
Hobbseewe stiill get some really...stupid...bugs though12:46
FujitsuWe're always going to get really stupid ones.12:46
mptFujitsu, there's a useful difference between "lots of stupid ones" and "a few stupid ones" :-)12:50
FujitsuTrue.12:50
paxstupidity keeps the balance, without it the 'haves' will have nobody to impress. The 'have-nots' nobody to blame.12:50
FujitsuWell, actually, not really. We already have 25000 bugs open now, a few thousand extra won't make a difference.12:50

dokoMithrandir: please could you requeue glibc/amd64 on another buildd? the build failure is unreproducible on ronne12:41
eternalswdJust wondering about coreutils version numbers.  Feisty has 5.97 as it's package version but the most recent stable version available at the gnu site is 6.9  Is this just a version numbering issue where ubuntu numbers it differently, or is that particular package really that far behind?12:41
Mithrandirdoko: no, it's a kernel limitation; fix scripts/check-local-headers.sh to use xargs.12:46
dokoMithrandir: so why do we have to make such changes during release phases? ...12:47
Mithrandirdoko: I have no control over which kernel the buildds run.12:48
Mithrandirdoko: also, it seems it died of inactivity.  It was probably hung.12:48
dokoMithrandir: correct, the scripts/check-local-headers.sh is unrelated; it's a parallel build.12:49

mjg59ivoks: Ok, it's arguably correct now and slightly broken in the past :)05:01
ivoksif you say so :)05:01
mjg59The default speeds should now be the same regardless of what sort of pad you have - before, it varied depending on whether it was an Apple, ALPS or Synaptics device05:02
mjg59If you think it's too slow, I can bump it up slightly?05:02
ivoksmaybe other users should give feedback too05:02
tepsipakkithere are bug reports on synaptics :)05:03
ivoks:)05:03
mjg59Hrm.05:04
mjg59Yeah, previously alps was set much faster than synaptics05:04
mjg59They should now both be much the same05:04
ivoksbefore, i would sweep my finger and it would scroll all the way, to the end05:04
mjg59Oh, hm.05:04

mjg59tepsipakki: Also, if we're setting defaults for synaptics, it should probably be done in the driver rather than xorg.conf05:12
tepsipakkioh wait, that's an intel machine and not powerpc.. attach your 'lspci -vvnn' to that05:13
mjg59tepsipakki: It's using vesa, which is correct05:14
mjg59The issue is that there's no useful values in the monitor section05:14

mjg59I can't find any vesa-related exceptions...05:17
andre_plvery sorry to intrude in the devel channel, but i'm having a showstopper of a problem and nobody else can help.  every time I reboot my laptop the nvidia kernel module is gone. the file doesn't exist in /lib/modules and I have to uninstall and reinstall the nvidia-glx and linux-restricted-moudles package to get X to start... then if I reboot again, same deal.05:18
tepsipakkimjg59: not yet anyway :P05:19
mjg59tepsipakki: Sorry, I'm really not understanding this at all. Why do you think it's something that's specific to this machine, rather than an issue affecting everything using the vesa driver?05:19
tepsipakkiwhen did it work?05:19
mjg59Worked fine in edgy05:19
mjg59andre_pl: Please file a bug at launchpad.net05:19

mjg59andre_pl: Also, make sure you have linux-restricted-modules-common installed05:20
andre_plivoks: no, its the generic kernel05:20
ivoksandre_pl: so... 32bit version of ubuntu?05:20
mjg59tepsipakki: I haven't been updating this machine religiously - the previous install on it was fesity, but pre-7.2 transition05:20

tepsipakkimjg59: could you attach Xorg.0.log from a non-working and a working X to that bug05:23
andre_plivoks: just waiting for it to finish removing the 386 modules.  why do they get pulled in along with the generics?05:24
mjg59tepsipakki: Not trivially, due to the breakage in casper that leaves me with no consoles05:24
mjg59tepsipakki: I'll see what I can do05:24

tepsipakkithe vesa driver was updated 1.2.1 -> 1.3.0 post herd505:25

zygapreviously I mirrored everything but I'm not that bold now :P07:24
zyga(AFAIR it's about 50GB)07:25
Seveaszyga, more than doubled now :)07:25
zyganow I have a slightly better infrastructure so I can scan here and process there07:25
shawarmazyga: So you want access to a machine with a complete mirror on the file system?07:25
zygashawarma: not access, just someone who will run a python extraction script07:26
zygathat script reads some basic info from each package and serializes it to a file07:26

cjwatsonoh, I see09:37
alex-weejhttp://releases.ubuntu.com/7.04/09:37
mjg59cjwatson: Any idea why migration-assistant appears to run depmod -a?09:37
cjwatsonmjg59: fixed post-beta09:37
mjg59cjwatson: Rock09:37
cjwatsonwas just a mistake in os-prober09:37
alex-weejmy friend installed the AMD64 version and i had to let him down that he has no flash player, skype, or win32 codecs09:37

cjwatsonalex-weej: right, I guess the text is slightly off09:37
alex-weejcjwatson: should i launchpad it?09:37
cjwatsonalex-weej: suggest better text to me and there's no need09:38
mjg59cjwatson: Also, I managed to break the partitioner - I deleted the existing partition that covered most of the disk, then hit new and set up a 10GB partition. Busy cursor appeared and nothing happened for 5 minutes, then I hit the cancel button and it quit09:38
mjg59parted_server was waiting for input from the fifo, not doing anything09:38
cjwatsonmjg59: bug, /var/log/syslog + /var/log/partman09:38
cjwatsonI'm not dealing with ubiquity bugs on IRC, I'd never get anything done. :)09:39
mjg59cjwatson: Are they archived anywhere post-install?09:39
cjwatsonmjg59: /var/log/installer/09:39
mjg59Got them09:39
mjg59Will file later on09:39
cjwatsonthanks09:39
cjwatsonI know of 64-bit arithmetic breakage in the beta, but that's probably not what this is09:39
mjg59Oh - I restarted the installer and redid partitioning. Would that have blown it away?09:39
cjwatsonno, it appends09:40
mjg59Cool.09:40
cjwatsonalex-weej: how about I just replace the last sentence with "For non-64-bit processors made by AMD, use the i386 images instead."?09:42

alex-weejcjwatson: "Choose this if you have an AMD64 or EM64T based processor and wish to take full advantage of it. Note that you may still run the Intel x86 version on these processors. _Click here for more information_"09:43
alex-weejwith a link to the wiki09:43
alex-weejbecause there are some advantages to running i386 on an amd64 (the 32-bit app support)09:43
alex-weejand you don't want to overwhelm the user at that stage09:43
cjwatsonthere are also considerable advantages to running amd64 on an amd6409:43
mjrs/may/can/ perchance09:44
alex-weejyes, but things like flash player / skype matter more to joe average :)09:44
cjwatson(funny how everyone thinks joe average == people they know)09:44
mjrI mean, it's not like it'd be forbidden to run it even if it wasn't possible ;] 09:44
alex-weeji can't make assumptions for people i don't know, cjwatson :P09:44
cjwatsonno, but if you don't know you don't get to make statistical claims09:44
alex-weejjust change it so that it doesn't claim that it is "necessary" for amd6409:45
alex-weejbut then amd64 users will still be confused when given the choice09:45
cjwatsonthat's tough, it's a valid choice which we can't simplify away09:45
alex-weeja wizard would be nice09:45

alex-weejQ. What's your processor? A. AMD64 | Q. Do you care about 32-bit application support? A. Yes | -> i38609:46
cjwatsonI'm happy to add text, links, whatever, but not a wizard - there's enough complexity there already. Anything like a wizard belongs on www.ubuntu.com, not releases.ubuntu.com.09:46
alex-weejcjwatson: agreed09:46
alex-weejcjwatson: in that case, maybe even simplify it09:46

cjwatsonarchitecture (e.g., Athlon64, Opteron, EM64T Xeon). If you have a non-64-bit09:48
cjwatsonprocessor made by AMD, or if you need compatibility with 32-bit09:48
cjwatsonapplications, use the Intel x86 images instead.09:48
cjwatsonhow about that?09:48
=== jono [n=jono@ubuntu/member/jono] has joined #ubuntu-devel
alex-weejsounds good to me09:48
cjwatsonmaybe s/compatibility with/support for/09:48
alex-weejyeah "support for"09:49
cjwatsonactually, "full support for"09:49
cjwatsonbecause the amd64 system *does* have some support for 32-bit applications - actually it's only really plugins that have a problem09:49
alex-weejbtw, my friend tried to install the i386 skype deb and it whinged at him about the arch mismatch09:49
cjwatsonor things with complex library dependencies09:49
cjwatsonwell, indeed09:49
cjwatsonbut that's not 32-bit applications, that's i386 .debs09:49
alex-weejbecause the deb package stuff still isn't quite multi-arch yet09:50
cjwatsonI know.] 09:50
alex-weejdo you know what happened to that? i thought it was "close" about 2 years ago? :S09:50
cjwatson-> somebody else09:50
alex-weejshame09:50
cjwatsonafaik just hasn't had time09:50
alex-weejoh well09:50
alex-weejbut given that, it's /not/ just plugins that are the problem then is it?09:50
alex-weejat least atm09:50
cjwatson*shrug* "no support for 32-bit applications" is still inaccurate09:51
alex-weejbut we're not saying it has no support there09:51
alex-weejwe;re saying that for the best support, use i38609:51
cjwatson"if you need support for 32-bit applications, go here instead" implies that there is no support for 32-bit applications09:51
cjwatson"full support" is ok09:51
alex-weejwell there's no support for i386 debs09:51
cjwatsonyes but that's NOT THE SAME THING09:52
alex-weeji know09:52
alex-weejbut to most people it would be :P09:52
alex-weejin a utopian world, where everybody ships debs :P09:52
cjwatsonlook, can we stop this? I said I'd say "full support" and that should be fine09:52
cjwatsonyou're kind of hammering on and on09:52
alex-weeji wasn't arguing otherwise...09:52
alex-weejsheesh09:52
cjwatsonit's a Sunday night, tetchiness is to be expected :)09:53
alex-weejyou were the one saying "compatibility with"? no, "support for"? no, "full support for"? no... :P09:53
=== cjwatson restrains himself from typing /part and coming back when he's actually at work
alex-weejctrl+W is easier in the heat of it all09:54
alex-weej(i didn't mean that :P)09:54
cjwatsonI'll just say "if you need full support for 32-bit code" I guess and dodge the issue09:55
cjwatsonok?09:55
alex-weejfine by me09:55
cjwatsonright, cool09:55
=== Nafallo [n=nafallo@ubuntu/member/nafallo] has joined #ubuntu-devel
alex-weejbut you could also just dodge it entirely and simply describe what the ISO is with no description of the implications09:55
alex-weejand leave it to a "wizard" on w.u.c09:56
cjwatsontoo late, committed, I'm going to do something more fun now ;)09:56
alex-weejok :P09:56
Mithrandiralex-weej: dude, stop it now.09:56
cjwatsonI appreciate the bug report and am grateful for it, but I don't really want to end up in an endless discussion of it ...09:57

=== zyga [n=zyga@ubuntu/member/zyga] has joined #ubuntu-devel
zygadoes anyone around have any *practical* experience with debugging memory leaks in python programs?11:28
desrti guess you mean finding memory leaks in C code called from python?11:29
zygano 11:29
desrtpython has memory management11:29
zygaI'm wondering what the heck in a rather small program keeps hogging memory11:30
desrtit doesn't leak.11:30
zygaI'm using several pythonic libraries, some from python some from ubuntu/debian11:30
zygaokay: s/python/python-script/g11:30
desrtright... python scripts don't leak memory... unless you're linking to some C that does11:30
zygathe fact is: it seems to leak 11:30
desrtso start looking for things that aren't leaks but seem like leaks11:31
zygait can sure 'leak' in a sense that something keeps holding memory when you didn't mean to 11:31
zygaI do get the difference I just want to get this over with11:31
zygaI tried gc.debug but it's worthless IMHO11:31
desrti guess yr looking for some tool to backtrace where memory allocations are made from (ala massif?)11:32
zygaI'd like to be able to see a snapshot of the memory allocation tree 11:32
zygas/tree/graph/11:32
zygaand check out what's there that was not supposed to be around so long11:32
desrttall order :)11:32
zygagc.get_objects() is somewhat tricky as it tells me just that11:33
zygabut I need a smart way to make use of it11:33
desrtfinding the objects probably won't be too much help11:33
zygait might11:33
desrtyr gonna want to know what code path allocated them11:33
zygathe program is dead-simple11:33
desrti guess you suspect a library?11:34
zygaI will know the objects once I see them11:34
desrtgotcha.11:34
zygabah11:34
zygaapt_inst is binary 11:34
desrtyou already know more about this than i do.  clearly :)11:34
zygaso is apt_pkg11:34
zygaI don't know how to debug them :/11:34
zygaI really suspect there is a leak - a simple program that streams stuff from one place to the other just keeps getting bigger11:35
zygaafter scanning several gigs of data it's over 400MB 11:35
zygaand it should _not_ grow 11:35
