| Mithrandir | hiya Scott | 12:20 |
| Keybuk | Mithrandir: heyhey | 12:20 |
| Mithrandir | how's, uh, the airport? :-P | 12:20 |
| Keybuk | shiny | 12:20 |
| Keybuk | lacks shiny technical goods, like all US airports | 12:21 |
| Keybuk | but then I was looking at the BestBuy prices, and it's getting *expensive* here | 12:21 |
| Mithrandir | it is? Even with two dollars to the pound? | 12:21 |
| Keybuk | yeah, the prices are *way* up | 12:22 |
| Keybuk | was looking at Digital SLRs | 12:22 |
| Keybuk | initial glance, it's actually more expensive than standard UK high street prices | 12:22 |
| Mithrandir | ouch. | 12:23 |
| Mithrandir | bhphotovideo.com in NY isn't too bad, in my experience. | 12:23 |
| Keybuk | ok, so Canon EOS 30D is $1,600 | 12:24 |
| Keybuk | which is about 800 | 12:24 |
| Keybuk | it was 650 in the Dixons at Heathrow | 12:24 |
| Mithrandir | 650 for a 30D isn't all bad, is it? | 12:25 |
| Keybuk | no, but I was expecting the US to be cheaper still | 12:25 |
| Keybuk | so was kinda disappointed | 12:25 |
| Keybuk | same is for the Creative MP3 player I was looking at | 12:25 |
| Mithrandir | mhm | 12:27 |
| mjg59 | Yeah, the US only seems to be cheaper for entire machines right now | 12:28 |
| Keybuk | of course, first I need to find out which camera is the best to buy | 12:29 |
| === Mez [n=Mez@ubuntu/member/mez] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Mithrandir | Keybuk: what kind of camera are you looking for? (And do you have any ties to a manufacturer from before) | 12:29 |
| Keybuk | Digital SLR is about the only decision made so far | 12:31 |
| Keybuk | considering taking a photography course in september, and taking it up as another hobby, so want something reasonable | 12:32 |
| Mithrandir | once you move into the SLR range, they're all reasonable, really. | 12:32 |
| Mithrandir | it's the optics which matter. | 12:32 |
| Keybuk | my mother has the Eos Rebel I think it is | 12:33 |
| Mithrandir | aka 300D in Europe? | 12:33 |
| Keybuk | could be yeah | 12:33 |
| Mithrandir | I think Rebel XT is 350D, and XTi is 400D, or something along those lines. | 12:33 |
| Mithrandir | I prefer Nikon myself, but that's mainly a matter of preference and both Nikon and Canon are safe enough choices. | 12:34 |
| Keybuk | I figure I'll just have to find a decent shop and play | 12:35 |
| Keybuk | if it turns out that the UK is just as cheap, I can do it at home | 12:35 |
| Mithrandir | yeah | 12:35 |
| === eggauah [n=daniel@201.72.63.158] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Mithrandir | I've got a Nikon D200, so if you want to play with that at UDS, you're welcome to. | 12:36 |
| Mithrandir | it's a lovely camera, but the body + 18-200mm I use puts it at quite a steeper price than the 30D you have looked at so far. | 12:36 |
| Keybuk | that'd be cool to look at | 12:37 |
| Keybuk | haven't planned a budget yet, just picked on that camera to compare prices because they had it at heathrow :p | 12:37 |
| Keybuk | I guess it makes sense that things here should be expensive | 12:38 |
| Mithrandir | bhphotovideo wants $2150 for body + that lens, which, tbh, isn't all unreasonable. | 12:38 |
| Keybuk | since they have to import everything | 12:38 |
| Mithrandir | true dat. | 12:38 |
| Mithrandir | it's all made in {Japan,China,Taiwan}, iirc | 12:38 |
| Mithrandir | oh, or Malaysia | 12:38 |
| Keybuk | $1600 for the body in UK | 12:39 |
| Mithrandir | same as bhphoto, then | 12:39 |
| Keybuk | yeah, looks like it | 12:40 |
| Mithrandir | (well, give or take 10$ which gets you about half a pint of beer.) | 12:40 |
| Keybuk | in Oslo, that doesn't even get you to the bar to *look* at some beer | 12:41 |
| Mithrandir | you're exaggerating. :-P | 12:41 |
| Mithrandir | it gets you about a pint in most of Oslo | 12:41 |
| Keybuk | I'm so not ;p | 12:41 |
| Keybuk | the cover at most places was about that or more | 12:41 |

| Keybuk | to be fair to eyas, they're usually not bad | 01:03 |
| Keybuk | for me, at least | 01:03 |
| Keybuk | I usually just phone Dionne and talk through the options | 01:03 |
| Keybuk | this time the problem was time constraints, with needing to leave San Francisco no earlier than X, but arrive in London before Y for my existing flight booking | 01:03 |
| Mithrandir | yeah, I think that might help. | 01:03 |
| Mithrandir | "Mark, can I borrow your plane"? | 01:03 |
| Keybuk | we're using that for the airport hops this week | 01:04 |
| Keybuk | we couldn't arrive on it, because of the visa issues, and Mark's going elsewhere for the weekend, so we couldn't leave on it either (plus the return ticket thing) | 01:04 |

| LordLimecat | im having a devil of a time installing feisty on XFS, anyone have a moment? | 08:17 |
| Burgundavia | LordLimecat: #ubuntu for support | 08:18 |
| Amaranth | LordLimecat: #ubuntu | 08:18 |
| LordLimecat | i checked in there and was referred here | 08:19 |
| LordLimecat | and ive been tryin to get help for like 2 hours | 08:20 |
| jmg | not many people use xfs i guess | 08:20 |
| jdong | LordLimecat: grr I'll make myself an exception, make an ext2 or ext3 /boot, and XFS will be fine | 08:21 |
| LordLimecat | jdong: i did that | 08:21 |
| LordLimecat | and had to manually set the partition active | 08:21 |
| LordLimecat | and got an "operating system error" at boot, after POST and before grub | 08:22 |
| jdong | interesting. | 08:22 |
| LordLimecat | lemme run the install once more | 08:22 |
| === cycom [n=cycom@c-71-235-43-245.hsd1.ct.comcast.net] has left #ubuntu-devel [] | ||
| jmg | is there a reason you have to use xfs? | 08:22 |
| LordLimecat | because i can, its faster and (for what i want) better, and its good to know how to do | 08:22 |
| jdong | I use XFS as my root currently | 08:23 |
| jmg | seems to me like you cant :) | 08:23 |
| Burgundavia | LordLimecat: who referred you to here? | 08:23 |
| jdong | though I installed completely manually | 08:23 |
| LordLimecat | some random guy in ubuntu | 08:23 |
| LordLimecat | not one of the main ppl | 08:23 |
| Burgundavia | ugh | 08:23 |
| reitblatt | xfs is less reliable, power loss tends to be very bad for it | 08:23 |
| jmg | Burgundavia: if its an installer issue where should he go? | 08:23 |
| LordLimecat | next time someone goes into ubuntu for help askin about installin ubuntu on XFS, i hope to be able to help em better than #ubuntu does | 08:24 |
| Burgundavia | jmg: if it is a bug, file it | 08:24 |
| Burgundavia | forums or mailing list is another good bet | 08:24 |
| jdong | reitblatt: it has gotten better since 2.6.17 with write barriers | 08:24 |
| jdong | though that is a very good point to raise with XFS -- it tends to aggressively write-cache a lot more | 08:24 |
| LordLimecat | there IS a bug with the installer, itll keep askin you if yer sure that you want to install grub on xfs....you have to hit "go back" to continue, because continue goes back | 08:24 |
| reitblatt | jdong: no longer caches everything in memory? | 08:24 |
| reitblatt | I see | 08:25 |
| jdong | reitblatt: well it still does, but IDE writeback cache no longer corrupts metadata structures | 08:25 |
| reitblatt | gotcha | 08:25 |
| jdong | that was a major problem before write barriers | 08:25 |
| jdong | where a hard shutdown would require xfs_repair | 08:25 |
| LordLimecat | dataloss is not an issue | 08:25 |
| reitblatt | yeah, I found that out | 08:25 |
| LordLimecat | not for me | 08:25 |
| LordLimecat | worst case i lose 1/2 a day | 08:25 |
| jdong | LordLimecat: also be warned XFS is very slow at the creation and removal of a large number of files | 08:25 |
| jdong | so keep that in mind before choosing XFS | 08:26 |
| jmg | LordLimecat: checked launchpad for open bugs on the installer/xfs (guys help me out... what is the installer package?) | 08:26 |
| reitblatt | my array needed 3GB of RAM to run xfs_repair | 08:26 |
| reitblatt | ubiquity? | 08:26 |
| jdong | currently my pbuilders are on a internal reiserfs loopback image on top of XFS | 08:26 |
| LordLimecat | i understood it was faster for removal of files vs ext3? benchmark quoted 22secs for ext3, 10 for xfs (700mb iso)\ | 08:26 |
| jmg | right ubiquity | 08:26 |
| jdong | LordLimecat: for a single large file, true | 08:26 |
| jdong | LordLimecat: for a large collection of small files, very false | 08:27 |
| jdong | LordLimecat: pbuilder cleanup on XFS: 45s; EXT3: 15s; reiserfs: 5s | 08:27 |
| LordLimecat | thats fine, "large collection" for me would be like 30 files | 08:27 |
| jmg | hehe, so xfs is the warez fs | 08:27 |
| jdong | jmg: haha | 08:27 |
| jmg | nice | 08:27 |
| jdong | LordLimecat: yeah, that'll be fine for you then. Just a heads up in case your were unaware :) | 08:28 |
| jmg | does it have zero reserved blocks by default as well? :-) | 08:28 |
| jdong | XFS's deletion time is pretty constant regardless of how huge the file is | 08:28 |
| jdong | jmg: yep | 08:28 |
| jmg | jdong: see earlier statement :-) | 08:28 |
| === jmg wonders how to make usb disks mount as readable for all users | ||
| LordLimecat | i saw a "real world" benchmark recently that seemed pretty good....conclusion was that ext3=slower, less cpu, more reliable, XFS=faster, more CPU, jfs=less cpu | 08:28 |
| jdong | LordLimecat: I've used basically every FS that works under Linux, from reiser4 to ntfs-3g | 08:29 |
| LordLimecat | and? | 08:29 |
| jdong | LordLimecat: In general, I would only suggest XFS for systems where large files is the primary motive | 08:29 |
| jdong | (i.e. files consistently >=50MB) | 08:29 |
| LordLimecat | for a system where pics and mp3=the goal? | 08:29 |
| LordLimecat | what then? | 08:29 |
| jdong | ext3 is fine for those workloads | 08:30 |
| jdong | and will likely perform better too | 08:30 |
| jmg | drwx------ 16 tom tom 32768 2007-04-29 17:46 EXTERNAL | 08:30 |
| LordLimecat | id still kind of like to know how to do it | 08:30 |
| jmg | oops | 08:30 |
| jdong | XFS is terrible under high metadata activity | 08:30 |
| jdong | LordLimecat: try booting onto a LiveCD and reinstalling GRUB by hand | 08:30 |
| LordLimecat | im tryin to figure out where i want grub to GO | 08:30 |
| jdong | to your ext3 /boot | 08:31 |
| LordLimecat | i have a Sata drive on ide channel 3.....thats not hd0 is it? | 08:31 |
| jmg | what mounts the drive? is it udev? | 08:31 |
| jmg | hotplug? | 08:31 |
| jdong | jmg: HAL | 08:31 |
| jdong | LordLimecat: check with your tab key (hd<TAB> | 08:32 |
| LordLimecat | jdong: i...dont have a ext3 /boot anymore, after that failed, someone said that XFS for all was fine | 08:32 |
| LordLimecat | so i deleted all, and made all XFS | 08:32 |
| jmg | oh god xml | 08:32 |
| LordLimecat | and that doesnt work at all | 08:32 |
| jdong | umm, ok, that works too | 08:32 |
| jdong | LordLimecat: find your XFS root then | 08:32 |
| LordLimecat | grub refuses to install | 08:32 |
| jdong | the installer will refuse to install GRUB | 08:32 |
| jdong | but hand-install works fine | 08:32 |
| LordLimecat | ah | 08:32 |
| jmg | even better there should be an option in removable devices for permissions | 08:32 |
| LordLimecat | itll throw a fit, crash out @94%? | 08:32 |
| jdong | you can't use the grub-install command! | 08:32 |
| Burgundavia | ok, I tagged dabar for telling people to come here for help | 08:32 |
| jdong | you must use sudo grub | 08:32 |
| jdong | and then the typical root, setup, quit | 08:33 |
| LordLimecat | so grub install is the last thing in the installer, right? | 08:33 |
| LordLimecat | cause installer didnt get past that | 08:33 |
| jdong | yeah, you should be fine | 08:34 |
| LordLimecat | wait, should i have been trying to install grub to sda rather than hd0? | 08:35 |
| jdong | no, no | 08:36 |
| === didymo [n=ashley@61.9.197.223] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| jdong | you need to use (hd0,0) | 08:36 |
| jdong | root (hd0,0) | 08:36 |
| jdong | setup (hd0) | 08:36 |
| jdong | qui | 08:36 |
| jdong | quit* | 08:36 |
| jdong | assuming that hd0,0 = /dev/sda1 = your XFS root | 08:36 |
| LordLimecat | im assuming i need to learn a TAD more about partitioning real quick | 08:37 |
| LordLimecat | hold on | 08:37 |
| jdong | LordLimecat: all you have to do is figure out what GRUB device your hard disk is. | 08:37 |
| jdong | GRUB's built in tab completion is excellent for that | 08:38 |
| LordLimecat | whats been throwing me off is that it wanted to install grub to hd0 before and after i removed my ATA drive (ide channel 1) | 08:38 |
| jdong | if the only drive in your system is that SATA drive, it will show up as hd0 | 08:38 |
| jdong | most likely.... | 08:38 |
| LordLimecat | what happens if i later attach a drive to an ata channel? | 08:38 |
| LordLimecat | will that fuck everythin up? | 08:38 |
| LordLimecat | oh wait | 08:38 |

| LordLimecat | (tab completion isnt working in sudo grub-install ) | 08:40 |
| jdong | I already said, do not use grub-install | 08:40 |
| jdong | it is the command that hangs on XFS | 08:40 |
| jdong | you need to load a grub prompt via sudo grub | 08:40 |
| LordLimecat | ah | 08:40 |
| LordLimecat | this is nice | 08:40 |
| LordLimecat | it IS hd0,0, but...Error 1: Filename must be either an absolute pathname or blocklist | 08:42 |

| jdong | the next time I see an Installer guy, I'll try to ask what's up with it | 08:44 |

| LordLimecat | thanks anyways guys | 08:52 |
| jdong | aww sorry to hear that | 08:52 |
| jdong | my tip to you... don't use XFS root | 08:52 |
| jdong | make an ext3 root | 08:52 |
| jdong | use XFS to store your data | 08:53 |
| LordLimecat | and xfs home? | 08:53 |
| jdong | yep | 08:53 |
| jdong | that also alleviates any XFS bottlenecks that might occur from processing all the tiny files that are a part of any Linux install | 08:53 |
| LordLimecat | im sort of tinkering with that thought, i want kubuntu, xubuntu, and ubuntu installations sharing data | 08:53 |

| LordLimecat | one other question, how would i get usage info on unionfs? is there a command i can man or google? | 08:55 |
| jdong | never played with it myself | 08:58 |
| jdong | though I'm sure googling for howto's will get you somewhere | 08:58 |
| LordLimecat | tried, most articles seem to be on why its so great, not how to use it -_- | 08:58 |
| LordLimecat | lol | 08:58 |
| LordLimecat | looks pretty cool tho | 08:58 |
| jdong | http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_VERY_small_Portage_Tree_with_SquashFS_and_UnionFS | 08:58 |
| jdong | that is a good example of how unionfs is used | 08:59 |
| LordLimecat | awesome, thanks | 08:59 |
| jdong | the scripts/application are specific to Gentoo | 08:59 |
| jdong | but you can still see how they used their mount command | 08:59 |
| jdong | and I'm sure the .txt documentation files INSIDE the unionfs source will be the most comprehensive | 08:59 |
| jdong | that's a place people commonly forget to check | 08:59 |
| LordLimecat | not sure this is gonna be QUITE what i thought it was, but looks dooable | 09:00 |
| LordLimecat | i had gotten the impression that it merged folders, not partitions | 09:01 |
| LordLimecat | sort of like having all of yer music in different folders browseable in one big merged folder | 09:01 |
| jdong | you can probably use it to merge directories. | 09:01 |
| jdong | as I've said, I haven't used it myself | 09:01 |
| LordLimecat | heh, alright | 09:01 |
| LordLimecat | this article will keep me busy for a while | 09:02 |
| jdong | and I doubt a lot of people here use it much either :) | 09:02 |
| jdong | probably finding some LiveCD/UnionFS camp such as Sidux/Kanotix/Knoppix will get you the best answers | 09:02 |
| Mithrandir | jdong: everybody who uses the live CDs uses unionfs, so that's not strictly true. | 09:02 |

| cjwatson | jdong: the XFS thing is a race condition between grub and XFS. It's not that grub-install is broken, it's more likely that by the time you get round to running grub by hand the race window has closed | 09:06 |
| cjwatson | jdong: I think so | 09:06 |
| jdong | the motherboard fake software raid thingie? | 09:06 |
| cjwatson | yes | 09:06 |
| jdong | ah, ok | 09:06 |
| jdong | ther'es a wiki howto that kind of hacks the livecd to install on it.... | 09:06 |
| jdong | but it sounded like device-mapper found the devices somewhat magically | 09:06 |
| cjwatson | there are hacks around, though being a race they're mostly "works for me" | 09:06 |
| cjwatson | some people never reproduce the hang in the first place | 09:07 |
| cjwatson | I had people asserting it didn't exist while I had a machine that reproduced it every time | 09:07 |
| jdong | cjwatson: I've had it happen flakily | 09:07 |
| jdong | cjwatson: I've been able on a few occasions to install grub on XFS without issue | 09:07 |
| jdong | but at other times it consistently hangs | 09:07 |
| cjwatson | fundamentally it's because XFS skirts the letter of what POSIX lets you do, while GRUB assumes that little bit more than POSIX | 09:07 |
| jdong | yeah, that sounds like XFS to me :) | 09:08 |
| cjwatson | there appears to be no way to force XFS to actually write data out to disk, short of unmounting the filesystem (which isn't feasible at that point) | 09:08 |
| cjwatson | and GRUB does raw reads from the disk using its own filesystem code | 09:08 |
| Mithrandir | cjwatson: we could add a sysfs node somewhere in the tree forcing all xfs fs-es to actually sync. | 09:08 |
| jdong | cjwatson: xfs_freeze? | 09:09 |
| Mithrandir | and just poke that from grub-installer. | 09:09 |
| jdong | freeze and unfreeze the FS? | 09:09 |
| jdong | freeze forces all unwritten transactions onto the disk | 09:09 |
| Mithrandir | jdong: except it doesn't, it seems. | 09:09 |
| Mithrandir | iirc we're using that + a sleep | 09:09 |
| jdong | hmm that's disappointing. | 09:10 |
| jdong | maybe it's not sleeping long enough ;-) | 09:10 |
| jdong | lol | 09:10 |
| jdong | or the "evict by dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/null bs=1M count=$RAMSIZE" method :D | 09:11 |
| jdong | ah, I'm gonna get smacked for coming up with these hacks | 09:11 |
| Hobbsee | i'm now disappointed in both koffice and openoffice. | 09:11 |
| Mithrandir | bs=1M and count=$RAM is kinda silly, since you then end up reading a million times your ram size off the disk | 09:12 |
| jdong | lol you know what I meant :D | 09:12 |
| jdong | read enough of the disk to evict the cache... | 09:12 |
| Fujitsu | Mithrandir: The autosync seems to be missing some things (complearn-{gui,mpi} for example). Is there any reason for that? | 09:13 |
| Mithrandir | Fujitsu: they might be stuck in NEW, they might be blacklisted, they might be new source packages or something might be broken | 09:14 |

| cjwatson | no point having it all fail to build | 09:30 |

| cjwatson | Mithrandir: I think I tried that and it didn't work well for some reason | 09:30 |
| Mithrandir | ok | 09:30 |
| cjwatson | and it also wasn't clear from the XFS source that remounting read-only was enough | 09:31 |
| Mithrandir | I guess I'll get Adam to do a small mass-giveback once the kernel headers are fixed. | 09:31 |
| cjwatson | but it's about two and a half years since I looked at this seriously | 09:31 |
| === jack_wyt [n=jack@61.149.2.19] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| cjwatson | Adam has instructions by mail on recovery, unless you have enough access to do that | 09:31 |
| Fujitsu | I think it might end up being a bit larger than small, Mithrandir. | 09:31 |
| Mithrandir | Fujitsu: as of last evening it was about 500 failures in gutsy. | 09:32 |
| cjwatson | basically manually install linux-libc-dev from feisty and build the new linux-source-2.6.22 | 09:32 |
| Fujitsu | Out of less than 1000 builds, I think. | 09:32 |
| cjwatson | yeah, but out of 10000+ source packages | 09:33 |
| Mithrandir | cjwatson: well, technically and archive-admin has access to mangle the chroots, and I think I have the knowledge how to do it, but I'd rather not since it makes IS upset (for a good reason; it is an abuse of priviledges) | 09:33 |

| Mithrandir | d and y are just too close on the keyboard. | 09:34 |

| jdong | sponix: last word I heard was it's possible, once said fixes were available | 09:42 |
| sponix | hmm | 09:42 |
| sponix | I've seen two posted fixes, one is to run reconfigure on the X server, and the other for making the console work is changing the vga line in the grub menu.list | 09:48 |

| bmhm | hi every1 | 08:39 |
| highvoltage | hey bmhm | 08:42 |
| bmhm | argh... since 7.04 i can't boot anymore nor install it with GUI | 08:43 |
| bmhm | seems some framebuffer setting | 08:43 |
| bmhm | i wonder it did make into the release | 08:43 |
| jdong | bmhm: do you have an ATI Radeon X1nnn series card? | 08:43 |
| bmhm | almost, Radeon Mobility X700 (Laptop | 08:44 |
| bmhm | but i think they Do have similar issues | 08:44 |
| jdong | woudln't doubt if it's the same problem | 08:44 |
| jdong | bmhm: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=414194 | 08:44 |
| bmhm | the funny thing is, even console won't work | 08:45 |
| jdong | the console doesn't work? | 08:45 |
| bmhm | thy i take a look at it | 08:45 |
| jdong | I would recommend (1) installing with the Alternate CD | 08:45 |
| jdong | (2) booting into recovery mode after install | 08:45 |
| jdong | (3) executing the given commands | 08:45 |
| jdong | hoping that you know how to get your network up from recovery mode? | 08:45 |
| bmhm | (1) done | 08:46 |
| bmhm | jdong: its always up, don't worry ;) | 08:46 |
| bmhm | I study informatics.. :P | 08:46 |
| jdong | ok, good luck man! | 08:47 |
| bmhm | but i doubt it will solve the missing boot screen, but anyway, i'll try it | 08:47 |
| jdong | missing boot screen... you mean the splash isn't working, and you're ending with blank consoles? | 08:47 |
| bmhm | jepp | 08:47 |

| bmhm | hmmm... i had another very different bug with uspash before | 08:48 |
| jdong | mjg59: ^^ is this the same ATI bug that plagued Edgy pre-release? usplash... | 08:48 |
| bmhm | i couldnt install splash screens. instead a test picture was shown | 08:48 |
| jdong | bmhm: try booting with vga=791 and seeing if that gives you splash? | 08:48 |
| bmhm | uhm jdong i'm still in recovery mode | 08:48 |
| === jdong is a total dimwit when it comes to usplash... so.... | ||
| bmhm | hang on a second | 08:48 |
| jdong | well get your video drivers working first :D | 08:49 |
| jdong | that's top priority | 08:49 |
| jdong | missing pretty graphical boot... meh :) | 08:49 |
| bmhm | erm | 08:49 |
| bmhm | how to tell apt-get NOT to use the CD? | 08:49 |
| bmhm | i always forget where that file goes | 08:49 |
| jdong | remove it from sources.list | 08:49 |

| jdong | some of us have friends who torment me by printing off a list of /usr/bin and asking me what random things do... | 08:51 |

| bmhm | jdong: one last thing if I may... bcm43xx or ndiswrapper? :) | 09:00 |
| jdong | bmhm: I've heard more people get ndiswrapper working than bcm43xx | 09:01 |
| jdong | but I am inexperienced with that chipset. I tend to run far far away | 09:01 |
| bmhm | yeah, so did i in 32bit | 09:01 |
| bmhm | yeah you really should | 09:01 |
| jdong | however, broadcom+ndiswrapper = no network-manager | 09:01 |
| bmhm | its awefull | 09:01 |
| bmhm | well no... | 09:01 |
| jdong | you have to use wifi-radar , or etc/network/interfaces traditional | 09:01 |
| bmhm | in 6.10 i made it work... | 09:01 |
| jdong | it cuts out every time network-manager tries to do a scan | 09:01 |
| jdong | which is like once every few minutes :D | 09:01 |
| bmhm | well no ^^ | 09:02 |
| bmhm | in 6.10 i used 2 managers at once | 09:02 |
| bmhm | gnome-network for calbe | 09:02 |
| bmhm | gnome-network-manager for wirelss | 09:02 |
| bmhm | worked brilliant | 09:02 |

| Nafallo | gnome-network-manager? | 09:03 |
| bmhm | sth like this | 09:03 |
| Nafallo | s/gnome-// ? | 09:03 |

| bmhm | jdong: still - the boot logo is misplaced | 09:19 |
| bmhm | i added vga=791 to menu.lst | 09:19 |
| jdong | and verified that usplash.conf is set to 1024x768? | 09:20 |
| sladen | jdong: iwlwifi? | 09:20 |
| bmhm | yes it is, jdong | 09:20 |
| bmhm | reason is the laptops widescreen? | 09:20 |
| jdong | sladen: Intel's new binary-daemon-less ipw3945 | 09:21 |
| jdong | sladen: it's in Feisty too, but doesn't work well, so we still use ipw3495 | 09:21 |
| jdong | apparently it works in FC7T4 | 09:21 |
| jdong | that'd be great news -- at least Centrino Duo will have working wifi out of the box for Fedora | 09:21 |
| jdong | bmhm: the reason is that ATI is cursed :) | 09:22 |
| jdong | bmhm: that's the extent of my usplash knowledge :) | 09:22 |

| Alternati | i mean how did you learn all this stuff | 09:32 |
| Alternati | how long have u been computing | 09:33 |
| jdong | I first started using a computer when I was 8... been a computer nerd ever since | 09:33 |

| jdong | back on topic... can an Archive Manager estimate for me ETA till the next Backports processing date? | 09:38 |
| Alternati | IM IN LOVE WITH MARY JANE | 09:38 |
| jdong | Alternati: that's enough :) | 09:38 |
| jdong | also, whoever is processing backports, unless otherwise stated, pull from Feisty.... I have not tested any newly synced gusty versions! | 09:39 |
| Alternati | do you not approve of drugs? | 09:39 |
| Alternati | hey, isnt linux for mostly liberals? | 09:39 |
| Alternati | or not? | 09:39 |
| cjwatson | jdong: you need to mention that in each backport request | 09:39 |
| jdong | cjwatson: I will be more consistently explicit in version numbers from now on | 09:39 |
| cjwatson | best to mention feisty though; version numbers are more easily skimmed over by accident | 09:40 |
| jdong | ok | 09:40 |
| Soccrmastr | jdong: why did yous witch from gentoo to Ubuntu? | 09:40 |
| Alternati | is linux for liberals mostly? | 09:40 |
| jdong | I'll post madison-lite lines from now on -- version and distro | 09:40 |
| bmhm | ah it works | 09:40 |
| bmhm | well almost | 09:40 |
| bmhm | nm-manager is its name | 09:40 |
| jdong | Soccrmastr: too much work administering the system, and the development community could be really rough at times | 09:40 |
| cjwatson | ok, guess I wasn't doing much else right now | 09:41 |
| bmhm | it can't manage wireless connections, since gnome-network-manager is using it | 09:41 |

| jdong | bmhm: OT for this channel, but by telling /etc/network/interaces to manage it NM will lay off | 09:43 |
| cjwatson | aha, backporting from edgy does it since the version in -security is the newest across the whole distrorelease | 09:43 |
| jdong | cjwatson: cool | 09:43 |
| bmhm | hmm didnt work... wah i try myself | 09:43 |

| jdong | we already have it in our kernel tree.... | 09:55 |
| poningru | but I have no idea where to ask about this | 09:55 |
| poningru | we do? | 09:55 |
| jdong | mac80211, btw :D | 09:55 |
| jdong | yep | 09:55 |
| poningru | I thought it was unstable like crazy | 09:55 |
| jdong | it's all in Feisty | 09:55 |
| poningru | 0.0 | 09:55 |
| jdong | most of those drivers aren't used by default | 09:55 |
| === tsmithe_ [n=toby@82-70-109-22.dsl.in-addr.zen.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| jdong | but yeah, I know iwlwifi was pretty unusable in Feisty | 09:55 |
| poningru | so not all wifi devices will use the stack yet? | 09:55 |
| jdong | hence it's not default. | 09:55 |
| jdong | correct, not all drivers use the stack | 09:56 |
| poningru | do we have a page somewhere that lists the drivers that do use it? | 09:56 |

| poningru | bcm is using the new stack? | 09:57 |
| jdong | there is a variant of bcm that does | 09:57 |
| poningru | is that being used in feisty? | 09:57 |
| jdong | I'm also pretty sure that's not the default bcm43xx used :D | 09:57 |

| jdong | nope | 09:59 |
| johanbr | There are two versions, bcm43xx and bxm43xx-mac80211. Looks like you're using bcm43xx. | 09:59 |

| ion_ | q-funk: What are its release highlights? (I can check for myself after this movie, but perhaps youd be willing to list them in the meantime. :-) ) | 10:15 |
| Q-FUNK | ion_: among other thngs, support for stage 2 authentication options with wpa_suplicant and with vpn plug-ins | 10:16 |
| Q-FUNK | ion_: which is precisely what I need to be able to use n-m with the corporate network. ;) | 10:17 |
| ion_ | q-funk: Alright. No support for per-network static configurations yet, though? | 10:17 |
| Q-FUNK | ion_: that, I haven't noticed. | 10:17 |
| Q-FUNK | http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/NetworkManager/0.6/NetworkManager-0.6.5.changes | 10:18 |
| Q-FUNK | I'm currently reading through the changelog | 10:18 |
| ion_ | Thanks, ill take a look at that later. | 10:18 |
| cjwatson | ooh, could be that's what I need to use WPA in the London office | 10:18 |
| Q-FUNK | I am mostly interested in those advanced authentication methods. I cannot log into my employer's network with out that. | 10:19 |
| Q-FUNK | cjwatson: could vey well be. does it need MSCHAPv2 ? | 10:19 |
| cjwatson | just WPA-PSK AFAIK but I'm not particularly well up on the acronym soup so don't bother probing for further details :) | 10:20 |

| cjwatson | Mithrandir: how should I know? :) | 10:21 |
| cjwatson | but it doesn't | 10:21 |
| wasabi | i really dislike how we use reserved names for stuff heh | 10:21 |
| cjwatson | wasabi: yes, me. | 10:21 |
| cjwatson | because, well, it is | 10:21 |
| wasabi | =( broke my mythtv box on feisty upgrade. =( | 10:21 |
| cjwatson | er | 10:21 |
| Q-FUNK | assides from support for configuring stage two of EAP, another bug is that when using the VPN plugins, it would need to change the resolv.conf to resolve via the vpn's ns. | 10:21 |
| cjwatson | ok, you don't mean the change I made then | 10:21 |
| Q-FUNK | Mithrandir: ttbomk? | 10:21 |
| wasabi | Dunno. The post-inst script seems to be trying to chgrp something to mythtv | 10:21 |
| wasabi | but no such group exists. | 10:22 |
| Mithrandir | to the best of my knowledge. | 10:22 |
| cjwatson | the change I made was to tell the installer that that username was reserved | 10:22 |
| Q-FUNK | ah | 10:22 |
| wasabi | because it failed to create the group. because it failed to create the user. because I already have a user. at least that's what it looks like. | 10:22 |

| _StefanS_ | hi there | 10:39 |
| _StefanS_ | anyone know the channel name for the PS3 ubuntu ? | 10:39 |
| cjwatson | _StefanS_: I don't believe there's a specific one | 10:40 |
| sladen | _StefanS_: not sure if there is one, /query bcollins | 10:40 |
| cjwatson | that's not Ben's nick for starters | 10:41 |
| cjwatson | and anyway Ben is travelling | 10:41 |
| cjwatson | _StefanS_: what's the problem? | 10:41 |
| _StefanS_ | well I was trying to figure out whether that 15% lockup problem on the livecd's where getting solved | 10:41 |
| cjwatson | it's known, best fix at the moment is to use xubuntu | 10:42 |
| _StefanS_ | I'm just installing using the alternate cd right now, but the regular cd's should work as well :) | 10:42 |
| _StefanS_ | err.. have the xubuntu fixed the installer? | 10:42 |
| cjwatson | Ben narrowed it down - the thing that's happening at that point is that swap is disabled in order for partitioning to happen | 10:42 |
| cjwatson | no, it's just that Xubuntu takes less memory so disabling swap doesn't kill the system | 10:42 |
| cjwatson | it's not actually an installer bug | 10:43 |
| _StefanS_ | ah.. | 10:43 |
| _StefanS_ | well 256mb should be enough for everyone... hmm or whatever it goes like :) | 10:43 |
| _StefanS_ | thanks for the info | 10:43 |
| cjwatson | we noticed significant slowdown in installation from feisty beta to final with 256MB | 10:44 |
| cjwatson | it doesn't seem to correspond to any particular process using more memoy | 10:44 |
| cjwatson | memory | 10:44 |
| _StefanS_ | uhm, well guess it should using alot less for a cd only based system | 10:44 |
| cjwatson | it may well be a leak in the kernel or something, but I don't think anyone's diagnosed it yet, unfortunately | 10:44 |
| cjwatson | actually running from CD takes more memory, not less | 10:44 |
| _StefanS_ | ah yep ofcourse | 10:45 |
