[12:28] siretart: no [12:29] I haven't yet found a workflow of bzr-branch-for-package that I'm happy with [12:30] I personally like this mode: http://wiki.tauware.de/misc:vcs-packaging#importing_upstream_releases_only === mpt [n=mpt@121-72-131-30.dsl.telstraclear.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [12:31] yeah, that's a huge amount of work for no benefit though, no? [12:33] the benefit is that I can use 'bzr merge' for merging new upstream releases [12:34] siretart: you can also copy the debian directory to the new source [12:34] siretart: how is 'bzr merge' different to just applying the previous diff.gz to the new upstream release? [12:35] in both cases, some stuff applies, and some stuff rejects and needs manual fixing [12:35] siretart: I guess that only pays off if you manage patches directly rather than in debian/patches? [12:35] I fully agree with "*REPLACE* the source packages with a bzr archive" [12:35] pitti: yes, patch systems are really annoying for this. I'm currently looking for a way how to convert dpatches to inline and vice versa for that [12:35] but I don't agree that staging source packages through a bzr archive is useful [12:36] since the source package archive also has all of the properties of an RCS [12:36] having the source stored to bzr is extra work [12:36] seb128: this doesn't get me anything for merging new upstream versions when I have done changes to the upstream source [12:36] you have to keep them in sync [12:36] I still find it useful for several people working on a package (like hal), or merging with Debian's svn [12:36] but those are limited cases [12:36] siretart: you have to merge patches which don't apply by hand anyway [12:36] Keybuk: I'm more confident if I can track the changes while resolving conflicts [12:36] yeah, it does make some sense if you have a team working on each release [12:36] you can as well use dpatch-edit [12:36] or upstream/Debian use an RCS as well [12:37] siretart: emacs provides me that workflow [12:37] but for a drive-by patching affair like devmapper, it's minimal tweak changes, upload, round of testing, you or someone else tweaks again, upload, round of testing [12:39] Keybuk: It's hard for me to review your changes. I surely want to understand and learn the devmapper/mdadm/lvm chaos, and I wanted so see what steps you have done in the past [12:39] why is it hard? [12:39] you can look at the debdiffs, no? [12:39] I'm currently downloading all past devmapper uploads [12:39] a ready bzr branch and bzrk would have helped me here [12:40] that's lot of extra work for little win though [12:40] http://patches.ubuntu.com/by-release/ubuntu/d/devmapper/ [12:41] oh.

[12:41] actually [12:41] thanks [12:41] http://patches.ubuntu.com/by-release/atomic/ubuntu/d/devmapper/ [12:41] even more helpful [12:42] since if you look at the 1ubuntu4 patch, it's only the changes made from 1ubuntu3 -> 1ubuntu4 [12:42] Wow... [12:42] that sure beats the crap out of extracting the old versions from launchpad and debdiff'ing them. === shawarma feels really silly now [12:43] too bad that I missed the announcment of the by-release directory :/ [12:43] *cough* err, it's one of Keybuk's secret little toys that he's not got around to documenting [12:43] just like the e-mail interface that lets you subscribe to uploads per-package/per-distro [12:44] e.g. subscribe to all Debian changes to a particular package [12:44] Sounds shiny!

What do they change to the fileselector? the interface? [12:56] seb128: they reimplement it, since the default one isn't too suited on a small screen === mpt [n=mpt@121-72-131-30.dsl.telstraclear.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [12:57] Mithrandir: patch looks fine, we can apply it only to the new arch anyway, no? [12:57] seb128: we could, but I'd like people to be able to easily develop hildon-based apps natively on their desktop. [12:58] so if you don't mind too much, I'd like us to apply it on all arches. [12:58] it "only" exports some private headers into "semi-public", which means no ABI/API guarantees [12:58] I don't like much changing the public API over upstream but since it's prefixed correctly hildon_ that's ok [12:59] Mithrandir: well, it adds hildon_gtk_file_chooser_install_properties to the API no? [12:59] it should go away eventually when we get gvfs and upstream is comfortable exporting the API [01:00] which means not this cycle [01:00] patch is fine with me, I'll try building GTK+ with it now [01:00] seb128: true, it adds that function [01:00] sorry I didn't see it before [01:01] and it's guarded with defines so you have to tell the system "I know this might/will break".

[03:37] "here are my disks; now give me a 4GB" [03:37] Keybuk, the temptation to NIH something better is strong. === desrt sees a keybuk [03:37] it's like evms, but without the soul-crushing pain [03:37] Does its license prevent it from being used in Linux? [03:38] Keybuk, it's a pity you took off to the airport early, we met Jeff Bonwick that friday [03:38] yeah :-( [03:38] ion_: CDDL is GPL-incompatible, unfortunately. [03:38] bit of luck I did too, by the time I'd got checked in and through customs, I didn't have long [03:38] yow. [03:38] Fujitsu: but there's a gpl-ed port, I thought? [03:38] we had a good 2 hour wait at SFO [03:38] taxi took an age to arrive [03:38] There's a FUSE port. [03:38] Mithrandir, no, it's FUSE based. [03:38] Sun said they mihgt license the whole of opensolaris as gpl in some point in the future. I hope that includes zfs. [03:38] kylem: oh, ok. [03:39] Speaking of evms, is it going to get it's comeuppance and get demoted to universe? [03:39] There's a very basic GPLed read-only implementation for grub [03:39] kylem: Oh, you've met him too, he's quite interesting to talk to. Him and Bill Moore was at a storage workshop I went to a couple of months ago [03:39] So someone /could/ go from there [03:39] StevenK: upstream refuse to support Linux 2.6 ... morgue could be a destination [03:39] maswan, yeah, bill moore was there too. [03:40] Keybuk: Oh, even better. [03:40] Actually, wait a sec? [03:40] What does EVMS have over LVM? [03:40] evms has an upstream? I thought it sprang from hell, fully formed?! [03:40] Fujitsu; enterprise support [03:41] Keybuk: eh? It works just fine with 2.6. [03:41] Keybuk: eh? [03:41] Mithrandir: tried it on gutsy? [03:41] Fujitsu; lvm doesn't work on enterprises :) [03:41] fujitsu: From what ive heard you tell it e.g. please resize this to 10GiB and it does all the steps involved correctly, whereas with poking plain filesystems, LVM and md, you might have to do multiple steps and you might be able to break something along the way. [03:41] Keybuk: my machines still boot. [03:42] kylem: oh, btw, did you send anything yesterday? [03:42] Mithrandir: do you have any non-evms block devices? [03:42] maswan, ah, shit, i forgot. [03:42] maswan, 1sec. [03:42] maswan, it's already uploaded, just need to untar & mv [03:42] Keybuk: yes. [03:42] thom: evms attempts to make a devmapper device for every block device on the system, whether it intends to do anything with them or not [03:42] ugh [03:42] thom: this fails if any of them are in use, e.g. mounted [03:42] aye [03:43] upstream's approach to this is to patch out the kernel features that cause this [03:43] Yowch! [03:43] StevenK: since you have done exiv2 sync, do you have any plans with digikam (note: 0.9.2 beta2 was just released, but not yet in debian) [03:43] Lure: I didn't, I can. [03:43] Keybuk: or rather, to tell you to not run evms and non-evms volumes on the same physical device. === viviersf [n=cain@gw.impilinux.co.za] has joined #ubuntu-devel [03:44] StevenK: since allee (debian packager) is on vacation, we could to Beta2-0-ubuntu1 and then he can merge back in debian after he is back [03:44] Lure: We could, yes. [03:45] StevenK: ok, I can prepare package, but will need core-dev for upload ;-) [03:45] Lure: You can file a bug and subscribe u-m-s. [03:45] Alternatively, you can pick on me, if you wish. [03:45] Lure: why not get a DD to upload it to debian, if allee's fine with that, then sync it? [03:46] Mithrandir: it still fails because evms still tries to make the devices [03:46] There's that, too. [03:46] or can you not abuse NMU like that? [03:46] it's default configuration is to assume all volumes are for evms [03:46] Hobbsee: You can, it's just frowned upon. [03:46] StevenK: even if the maintainer says it's fine? :P [03:46] Keybuk: don't tell my machines, since they work fine. :-P [03:46] IIRC, it was strongly encouraged by evms upstream to not mix evms and non-evms managed devices on the same disk [03:46] Hobbsee: yep, we can try fabo or somebody to sponsor debian upload === Hobbsee points Lure to StevenK [03:47] Ssshh! [03:47] oh. wait. i didnt say that. [03:47] Hobbsee: oh, did not know he is DD too ;-) [03:47] sorry steve :P [03:47] digikam is maintained by "Debian KDE Extras Team" - this implies more than one person. [03:47] Hobbsee: Hmph. [03:48] Lure: might push pusling/ana to upload it, then. [03:48] or their sponsors. although i thougth ana was a DD [03:50] Keybuk: should we think about having evms be removed by the upgrader if it isn't in use? [03:51] mdz: we've never been able to define "in use" :-/ [03:51] Lure: #debian-qt-kde on oftc - just dont get them onto ubuntu policies. [03:51] and they wont bite [03:51] much [03:51] Keybuk: the existence of any evms volumes other than compatibility volumes [03:51] mdz: if there's a way to detect that, it would be a great idea [03:52] since this appears to bite the people who have evms installed because we once installed it by default [03:52] and the people who actually use it, seem completely happy and unaffected [03:52] kinda a corner case, but that will break systems where people only have evms on hotplugged drives. === johanbr [n=j@JBrannlund.MathStat.Dal.Ca] has joined #ubuntu-devel [03:53] if they don't have any /dev/evms mount points in fstab, i think we can probably get away with removing it on upgrade [03:53] (it does still use /dev/evms, right?) [03:55] mdz: no, you can't do that. I use cryptsetup on evms, for instance. [03:56] evand: do you know what the current state of the installer is? Does it make sense to start building daily cds again? [03:56] Mithrandir: do you even use the release upgrader? :-P [03:56] mdz: no, it refused to upgrade to gutsy two weeks ago. [03:56] so yes, I tried, but it failed since it didn't know about gutsy yet. [03:57] Mithrandir: Negative, I do not know the answer to that, unfortunately. [03:57] evand: ok. [03:57] I'll be happy to test it in a short while though, if you have not already. === highvoltage [n=highvolt@196.1.61.41] has joined #ubuntu-devel [03:58] evand: I haven't, no.

[03:59] ahhhh === sbalneav [n=sbalneav@mail.legalaid.mb.ca] has joined #ubuntu-devel [04:01] the evms failure mode right now seems to be 1) install evms 2) reboot 3) computer fails to mount root filesystem because it's "in use" [04:01] or 1) being "have evms already installed" [04:01] oh damn that poppler bug. [04:02] Keybuk: we could switch evms into only claiming the devices it actually uses? [04:02] or is that hard? === jsgotangco [n=jsg123@ubuntu/member/jsgotangco] has joined #ubuntu-devel [04:03] Mithrandir: that would be the ideal solution, however no idea how hard that is === Hobbsee waits for pitti to fix it.

[05:11] i.e. a picture of the screens [05:11] next to each other [05:12] siretart: 2:1.0.4+svn29-1ubuntu1 [05:12] siretart: I just that you uploaded -1ubuntu3 [05:12] siretart: (i'm still a bit slow with console only :)) [05:13] mpt: we don't support many different screen relations. it is only allowed to configure one relation, that can be cloned or extended by [05:14] afflux_: yes. please try a newer version [05:14] mpt: the larger problem is what happens if you have got two cards? currently it is quite hard to find which output belongs to which card [05:15] siretart: I guess -1ubuntu3 won't be in the archives yet, would it? [05:15] glatzor, I mean the "Extend primary screen:" menu would be better as a picture of two screens that you can drag around [05:15] siretart: did you locate the problem? [05:15] mpt: you would have got to the devices screen and hopefully choose different model names. but if both of them are e.g. 1280 LCDs you would have a problem [05:15] afflux_: the source has been already published, the build's didn't start yet. and I've just uploaded -1ubuntu4 a few minutes ago [05:16] mpt: I think that this feature is overrated. all dialogs that implemented this do not fit on 640x480 [05:16] Keybuk: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cryptsetup/+bug/117459 [05:16] Launchpad bug 117459 in cryptsetup "luksOpen takes ages" [Undecided,Fix released] [05:16] siretart: ah, heh [05:16] of course, there was a SONAME bump [05:16] mpt: and using dump numbers as screen identifiers is also not a good way (windows= [05:16] ) [05:17] Keybuk: can we do something to prevent such issues in the future? [05:17] siretart: thank you for your help [05:17] mpt: the ideal solution would be to have all options on one dialog. I don't like to have three notbook pages [05:18] siretart: the archive admins tend to notice such things pretty easily [05:18] obviously we're still early in the gutsy release process, so the eye isn't quite so sharp [05:18] mpt: and furthermore you would have to provide a non drag and drop configuration option too. since I am not sure that all user would discover the fancy method. [05:19] siretart: it would be nice to work out a magic udev rule for cryptsetup, so any luks block device is automatically dealt with [05:19] mpt: so more and more space would be required [05:19] mpt: wait I will make a screenshot of the different approach [05:19] I don't know what a "dump number" is [05:19] mpt: 1 and 2 === Demitar_ [n=demitar@c-212-031-190-120.cust.broadway.se] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:20] oh [05:20] mpt: a number without any further meaning :) [05:20] mpt: Using the Monitor model name seems to be a better approach, but would also consume more space. [05:21] Keybuk: indeed. === ubuntu_laptop [n=ubuntu_l@ubuntu/member/gnomefreak] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:21] Keybuk: for keyfiles, we could perhaps work something out, so that the user has the possibility to place it on the harddriver or on some usbstick or something [05:22] mpt: If you connect a different screen, you have got to tab 3 change the model, go back to tab 1 and change the resolution and if you haven't yet configured dual head go to tab 2 [05:22] Keybuk: however for passwords entered via terminal I think we would perhaps need some external password-agent tool or something [05:22] yeah we'd need that [05:22] but it should be now possible to [05:22] 1) make sure vol_id can detect luks partitions [05:22] and thus [05:22] ideally, that would use usplash if running [05:22] vol_id is able to detect luks just fine [05:22] 2) have a udev rule that activates them (getting a password, excluded) [05:23] ok, cool [05:23] it doesn't work with 'plain' dm-crypt devices, since they lack an meta-information header. but luks is just fine [05:23] so SUBSYSTEM=="block", ENV{ID_FS_TYPE}=="crypto_LUKS", RUN+="..." in an 85-*.rules would work [05:24] we can perhaps modify cryptsetup to spit out some warning if the user tries to create a non-luks device or something [05:24] mpt: http://glatzor.de/filesink/dcg-gfxbase.png [05:24] don't dm-crypt devices show up as ENV{DM_TARGET_TYPES}=="crypt" ? [05:24] mpt: I tired to combine the device chooser and the display mode selector on one tab [05:24] mpt: every graphics card would be represented by a single tab [05:25] Keybuk: but how do you imagine this passphrase agent? It should be able to run in a) usplash, b) text/console, c) serial console (?), d) X11/Gnome/KDE session [05:25] mpt: so the screen/gfxcard relation would be clear [05:25] mpt: if there is only one screen I can hide the left chooser [05:25] siretart: I think it makes sense to combine that with the "progress output" agent, which needs to send its output to a) usplash, b) text/console, c) serial console, d) X11/Gnome/KDE session, e) text-to-speech [05:26] ie. the "Starting Apache Web Server" thingy [05:26] Keybuk: http://paste.debian.net/29174 <- example output of what vol_id says about luks [05:26] mpt: the dialog is resizable and the model chooser button uses ellipsis so that it does not force a wide window [05:26] siretart: don't suppose you have a dm-crypt fs around? if so, what does dmsetup export NAME say on it? [05:27] Keybuk: my laptop is running debian/lenny atm, since feisty wasn't in too good shape for LVM/dm-crypt experiments :/ [05:27] what does NAME stand for? [05:27] yeah, it wasn't great [05:27] hda6? [05:27] whatever the /dev/mapper thing is [05:28] the theoretical final step for all this is that the device-mapper ioctl() to make or change a device won't actually complete until the uevent has been processed by udev and the device node created [05:28] dmsetup export says 'Unknown command' [05:28] do you perhaps mean 'dmsetup info'? [05:28] siretart: ah, use "info" on Debian [05:29] Keybuk: http://paste.debian.net/29175 [05:29] why is debian different here? [05:29] upstream change? [05:29] "export" is a patch from SuSE to output all of the info in a format udev can import [05:30] could you try "table" instead of info, I think that's the right one [05:30] ah, sounds useful [05:30] we have a similar patch for mdadm as well, so udev can grok the array states, etc. [05:30] Where do core dumps end up these days? [05:30] Keybuk: http://paste.debian.net/29176 [05:31] shawarma: in apport [05:31] glatzor, that's got very good padding and capitalization and everything, but I don't understand how to use it [05:31] siretart: er... Not on the filesystem somewhere? === beuno [n=martin@ubuntu/member/beuno] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:31] siretart: ok, cool [05:32] so we can match those with ENV{DM_TARGET_TYPES}=="*crypt*" [05:33] There's not way to get a regular core dump? [05:34] shawarma: doesn't ulimit -c unlimited help? === desrt yawns [05:34] siretart: Well, it said "core dumped", but I couldn't find it anywhere. I expected it in my $CWD.. [05:34] shawarma: you need to echo "core" | sudo tee /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern === ubijtsa [n=ubijtsa@karlsson.force9.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:35] glatzor, but that's not necessarily worse than the previous design :-) Anyway, I'll have a more thorough look in the morning [05:35] Mithrandir: even though 'cat /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern' already says core? [05:35] shawarma: hm, then you should indeed have it in cwd. [05:35] Mithrandir: Ah, there we go. [05:36] Mithrandir: Odd. [05:36] Mithrandir: I did /etc/init.d/apport stop, but I triggered the core dump since then and it didn't work then. [05:36] Mithrandir: But now it works. Yay! === thekorn [n=thekorn@a81-14-157-250.net-htp.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:38] Keybuk: tell me more about the "progress output" agent. is there a spec for it? who is working on that/ [05:38] ? [05:39] siretart: no spec, nobody working on it [05:39] it's something we need though, obviously === sacater [n=sacater@105.245.131.213.static.inetbone.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:42] siretart: building of -1ubuntu3 on my own solved the issue. thank you! [05:42] Keybuk: well, anyway. if we want to integrate crypysetup with udev, we need to have some kind of user intervention. which is strange here, because cryptsetup generally expects to be run from the user context. with udev, it runs from a 'system' context [05:43] Keybuk: and getting from udev back in some user context is, well. interesting at least [05:43] afflux_: thanks for confirming [05:43] afflux_: does luksformat work for you? [05:43] I was looking at the initramfs-tools script you have, you see [05:43] which is, err, massively complex and overweight [05:43] and probably causes all sorts of problems [05:43] since it tries to run lvm, evms, etc. [05:43] afflux_: (it doesn't for me, I cannot open created devices) [05:44] yes, it sucks for obvious reasons [05:44] Keybuk: may udev scripts block and ask for passwords? [05:45] in that case we could get along with integrating cryptsetup with udev in initramfs only [05:45] this way we would leave out the X11 part, and only deal with console and usplash (which would cover the serial console use case as well) [05:45] for gnome, we have hal and gnome-vfs [05:45] they could, but after 3m wait, udev would assume they'd hung and kill them [05:46] that's a sane assumption [05:46] initramfs only would break for /home under cryptsetup, no? [05:46] there is a problem for me too in the initramfs script. A minor one since I know how to fix it. I have my cryptroot partition on /dev/sda10, this is a s-ata drive. It seems to be enabled later than expected from the script, so it would be good to have some sort of loop that checks if the device gets listet in the next X seconds. Can provide a patch in about 10 minutes. [05:46] if the user doesn't manage to enter his password in less than 3 minutes, we can perhaps safely abort [05:47] Keybuk: why would it break? [05:47] siretart: those aren't mounted in initramfs [05:47] you'd need the same setup for pre-X boot [05:47] good point [05:48] Keybuk: how would udev know which devices to open? - assuming we have 3: /, swap and /home, which one should get opened in initramfs? [05:48] it actually does them all [05:48] afflux_: Keybuk and I are basically discussing a solution for that problem. There are already at least 2 open bugs with proposed patches for that [05:49] restricted on which drivers are available [05:49] which would break semantics, wouldn't it? [05:49] you should certainly support someone plugging in a USB key halfway through the boot sequence [05:49] semantics? === TomaszD [n=tom@unaffiliated/tomaszd] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:49] well, ATM, we only mount /, and not /home in initramfs. with cryptsetup run from udev, all devices would get opened in initramfs, no? [05:50] siretart: oh, didn't see the connection. have no idea about udev. ;) [05:50] siretart: what's wrong with that? === sacater [n=sacater@213.131.245.105] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:51] Keybuk: well, think about cases where you have keys on your /root partition, which is crypted by a keyfile on usb. udev won't be able to mount /home, and the user can't provide a password, since he has only a keyfile, which is on / [05:51] so udev would bug the user unnecessarily === BenC [n=bcollins@debian/developer/bcollins] has joined #ubuntu-devel === seb128 [n=seb128@ubuntu/member/seb128] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:52] the keyfile would fail to open, and cryptsetup would terminate unsuccessfully, surely? [05:52] I'm trying to eliminate all "Point Of No Return" from the boot sequence [05:52] from udev, you don't see if a device needs a password or a keyfile [05:52] "you must have your USB key plugged in by this point or it won't get mounted" is bad [05:52] it might work with both [05:53] or with just one of the two === sacater [n=sacater@colchester-lug/member/sacater] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:54] Keybuk: I rather think it wouldn't be unreasonable to mandate using a /etc/crypttab, which explains the parameters for unlocking / [05:54] Keybuk: and udev would then only open that device in initramfs [05:54] Keybuk: later in the boot process, the other filesystems listed in /etc/crypttab are mounted (like /home, swap, etc) [05:55] that's certainly doable [05:55] of course, if / is mounted by UUID, how do you know which crypted filesystem is the one to unlock? :p [05:56] I know from /etc/crypttab? [05:58] udev would grep it and compare it's UUID/something to check if that's the root device === blackska1 [n=blackska@d54C1A48C.access.telenet.be] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:59] that kind of extra configuration makes me feel sad [06:02] mpt: a tired usability engineer is perhaps a good indicator for if the dialogs work or not :) === wasabi [n=wasabi@ubuntu/member/wasabi] has joined #ubuntu-devel === finalbeta [n=gggggggg@d54C6865D.access.telenet.be] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:03] glatzor: how will that interact with xrandr ? [06:04] Keybuk: depending in which state XRandR will be at the Gutsy release. [06:04] Keybuk: indeed, I don't feel to happy about it as well; however I don't see really any other sane approach to manage it [06:05] morning [06:05] morning bryce [06:05] Keybuk: The idea was to base the configuration on the traditional xorg.conf and only use xrandr to apply changes instantly [06:05] Mithrandir: or another archive admin: please give back kdegraphics and krita [06:06] Keybuk; going to school now [06:07] Keybuk: mvo started hacking on xrandr 1.2 python bindings. would be nice if he would be given more time for this :) === cypher1 [n=cypher1@c-68-83-184-230.hsd1.nj.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:09] Keybuk: the problem is that there are still many cards that will not have got xrandr 1.2 support in the near future [06:09] Keybuk: And we have got not idea about the AMD and NVIDIA plans. Also taking the legacy cards into account. === cypherbios [n=cypher@ubuntu/member/cypherbios] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:10] glatzor: but for those cards that do support xrandr properly, you don't really want to write them an xorg.conf "hard-coding" that layout [06:10] Keybuk: If we would live in a better world I would like to base it only on XRandR too. [06:10] it'd be nicer to leave them conf-less, and instead restore their last layout and give them the option to change it on the fly [06:10] Keybuk: that is not an exclusive approach. [06:11] can archive admins sync from any .dsc file or just from debian? [06:11] siretart: see, I'd kinda like to support somebody who wanted /, /home and /usr each as encrypted LVM LVs, combined from a MD RAID-5 selection of disks, with each underlying disk encrypted as well. [06:11] Keybuk: but one problem is the assigned memory for the maximum resolution. [06:11] siretart: the passphrases for each of these elements obtained from a USB key, the filesystem of which is encrypted with my fingerprint as the passphrase [06:12] siretart: that's somewhat complex to express in crypttab? :p [06:12] Keybuk: where is the problem with that? [06:12] Keybuk: X seems to be quite conservative. so you cannot access all available resolutions with xrandr [06:12] siretart: it requires a lot of elements, no? === chand| [n=rsamson@linagoraberri.pck.nerim.net] has left #ubuntu-devel ["Ex-Chat"] [06:13] Keybuk: the format could be " luks" [06:14] where keytype is either a pathname to a keyfile, 'none' for passphrase, or other magic think you want to support [06:14] Keybuk: If I don't use any xorg.conf on my t60 with an intel card I am stuck to 1280x1280. which is really not enough for two desktops. [06:14] siretart: s/devmappername/UUID/ no? [06:14] glatzor: have you tried the -intel driver in gutsy? [06:14] Keybuk: no debian unstable. === ramki [n=ramki@72.16.168.213] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:15] Keybuk: you'll need a devmappername for practical reasons. cryptsetup works with the devicenames from /dev/mapper, not with uuids. but we can perhaps add the uuid as well [06:15] Keybuk: I tried gutsy some days ago, but xrandr didn't work [06:15] Keybuk: and I haven't tested it again since that time. [06:15] hello bryce, by the way [06:15] heya glatzor [06:16] bryce: I implemented the dump and read pci table function of the guidance backend in displayconfig === RadiantFire [n=ryan@upstream/dev/RadiantFire] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:17] glatzor: cool [06:17] bryce: this is a quite nice feature, since it allows us to reproduce errors very exactly [06:18] bryce: have you been in contact with anyone from Intel, AMD or NVIDIA? [06:19] bryce: would be nice if we could get some more information for the xorg.conf options of every card [06:20] yes to Intel; I know AMD's open source lead (but he hasn't interacted too much with ATI so far); from nvidia I've traded bug reports with a person from there but don't really know him [06:20] bryce: I made some patches to support the intel i810 driver (or better said my laptop) better [06:20] agreed; however many cards simply have nvidia or whatever chipsets, but the actual hardware implementation is from other vendors [06:21] bryce: I now use displayconfig-gtk on a daily basis :) [06:21] is it enough in every case to simply have the chipset's details? [06:22] cool, yeah I was playing with it a bit friday. I've been setting up new test hardware and using it to check that I can manipulate the drivers and rez on them === Lure [n=lure@89-212-19-55.dynamic.dsl.t-2.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:22] bryce: For example I don't know which Intel cards require the MonitorLayout option. It is needed to get dual head working on my computer. but there seem to be other cases since this was not yet implemented in the backend. (or the backend made a bad show on Intel systems :) === afflux [i=fnord@pentabarf.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel === bspindler [n=bspindle@208.156.104.130] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:24] hmm [06:24] bryce: how was your overall experience with the proprietary drivers? [06:24] bryce: I don't have got any NVida/ati systems to test here. [06:25] pretty seamless, although I didn't spend much time on them and didn't test beryl or anything nontrivial [06:25] no prob, I've got several nvidia/ati systems. I'm actually short on intel [06:25] bryce: Furthermore in my patch I made the perhaps most conservative assumption and set the MonitorLayout to internal screen and external vga. === bryce nods [06:26] bryce: but I have got no idea what the impact on systems with a tv out are :/ === bddebian [n=bdefrees@63.81.56.182] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:27] bryce: Oh, I am only interested in changing the resolution and extending and cloning desktops :) beryl is out of scope for me :) [06:27] Heya [06:27] bryce: if you want, you could send my some pci table dumps :) [06:28] bryce: it would be nice to have a good feeling about getting nvidia systems detected correctly by displayconfig [06:28] feeling [06:29] bryce: do you plan to do a feature matrix for beryl? [06:30] bryce: if so, we could also add works with displayconfig [06:31] bryce: perhaps it would be a good idea to setup a wiki page and ask the users in a blog post and on the forums to add information about working dual head configurations there. [06:32] bryce: steve harms seems to be interested in getting a working x configuration tool tool. I haven't meet him yet online, but I think that he is more next to your time zone :) [06:33] for the pci table dumps, just lspci -n ? [06:34] no it's a dump of the internal pci table of displayconfig [06:34] I'll plan on playing around with displayconfig on nvidia. I haven't seen problems on radeon so far [06:34] ah, how do I retrieve that? [06:34] bryce: just update the ubuntu branch of displayconfig-gtk [06:34] I merged it today [06:35] I think having an area where users can post working multi-screen configs would be excellent [06:35] ah cool, okay [06:36] bryce: yesterday I started working on the actual user interface again, since I am not very happy with the current approach. it has got some problems in the workflow [06:36] bryce: http://glatzor.de/filesink/dcg-gfxbase.png [06:37] this is another approach. but it seems to be a bit messed up. [06:37] yeah [06:37] I've been thinking about the dual/multi monitor gui layout, and one thought I've had is it feels like there should be a tab per screen === simira [n=simira@aine.err.no] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:38] so then adding a third or fourth monitor would involve simply creating another copy of the base panel in a new tab [06:39] however since cards often have multiple monitor outputs, that could make things a tad more complex [06:40] bryce: each graphics card is represented by its own tab in this design approach [06:40] bryce: so you only the outputs of the corresponding card on each tab [06:41] but perhaps I have only to find better way for including the selector [06:41] the thing on the left side [06:41] http://glatzor.de/bzr/displayconfig-gtk/gfxbase/ [06:42] bryce: If you want to test here would be the branch [06:42] just ./displayconfig-gtk --data-dir=data [06:43] yeah I've just wondered from a usability point of view, most non-technical people won't have much clue what a "video card" is, but they'll know what a monitor screen is [06:43] so tabs of video cards may appear to be geek to them [06:43] bryce: yes. you are right. [06:43] bryce: but most people only have got one card :) [06:44] bryce: and the people that use two cards for their dual screen setup would know about the used cards [06:44] since they perhaps had to add a second card. === simira [n=simira@aine.err.no] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:45] bryce: I agreed with mpt to take this issue to the ubuntu-desktop list and discuss it there [06:46] bryce: but I can still point you to another problem I mentioned earlier with the workflow (as a daily user of displayconfig-gtk I got annoyed by this too :) [06:47] if you for example connect a new monitor to your laptop, you go to the devices tab and select the monitor model, then you go to tab 2 and set e.g. extend my primary screen. [06:48] mostly you will forget to also set the correct resolution on the first tab :) [06:48] most times [06:49] yeah I ran into that too [06:50] having to shift between multiple tabs to do one activity (get a monitor/card set up), is probably not great usability [06:50] asac: firefox needs a "restart" option ;) [06:51] bryce: and this will be perhaps the most needed task [06:52] bryce: and the location chooser is really a must have [06:54] argh.. I shouldn't have upgraded to gutsy [06:55] :) [06:55] hmm, maybe it's time soon... [06:55] simira: I miss my evince [06:55] Keybuk: for what? [06:59] Treenaks: you should have let it keep back poppler, then [06:59] Mithrandir: I know, I know [07:00] Mithrandir: oh well, I gues it'll be fixed before release ;) [07:00] +s [07:00] Keybuk: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3458 [07:00] Treenaks: what arch do you use?

It seems sensible to run vol_id on those. [09:04] oh! no, wait, I understand [09:04] the issue is having the various snapshots fighting over the fs UUID. I get it. Cool. === _TomB [n=tomb@host86-147-88-201.range86-147.btcentralplus.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel [09:06] one issue I see here is that as-is, the fs UUID map will vanish when I create a snapshot (since the "origin" device switches from "linear" to "snapshot-origin"), leaving _no_ device associated with the original fs UUID.

[09:13] pastebin coming.. [09:13] better question [09:13] which one should the UUID point to? [09:14] which of the following would you ever attempt to mount, and which would you absolutely not? [09:14] vg-original [09:14] vg-snapshot [09:14] vg-snapshot-cow [09:14] vg-original-real [09:14] -cow and -real are not mountable ever [09:14] -original and -snapshot are both valid [09:15] heh, amusingly -cow and -real are the ones with the linear map [09:15] -original has snapshot-origin table type, and -snapshot has a snapshot table type [09:15] right, from what I can see, all the lv are initially created as "linear" and then lvm goes and tweaks their internal settings? I'm not sure. [09:15] from tracing LVM, we don't think there's a problem running vol_id on any of the "final" nodes [09:16] right, but it changes during their creation lifetime [09:16] the problem comes of running vol_id on the -snapshot node when it's linear, and not snapshot === keescook nods [09:16] but there doesn't seem to be any information about it to detect that it will "become" a snapshot type. :( [09:16] At the point (1) udev already run vol_id on vg-snapshot. This LV is only [09:16] created to delete the exception table of the snapshot to be created. So [09:16] lvcreate tries to remove the still open vg-snapshot. [09:17] (from Kay) [09:17] that's from a SuSE EL bug [09:17] hm [09:18] which is consistent with the bug we're seeing [09:18] here's the uuid moving, btw: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23143/ [09:18] we vol_id the first device node, and race lvm needing to change it [09:19] the fs uuid moves to -real (which is wrong). It should either stay on the snapshot-origin, or it should follow the most recent snapshot (kind of insane) [09:19] ok [09:19] that follows [09:19] we'd need some way to match the -real and -cow devices to avoid them ever taking the UUID [09:19] are they hardcoded to those names? [09:19] they seem to be, yes. [09:19] <`23meg> glatzor, regarding bug 117429, did update manager use to display total size of installed files for metapackages? [09:19] Launchpad bug 117429 in update-manager "Does not show new dependencies of updates" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/117429 [09:19] can I make a device of my own with those names? [09:20] actually [09:20] easier way [09:20] I haven't tried trying to intially collide with the reserved names. [09:20] just increase the link_priority of a device with table type snapshot or snapshot-origin [09:20] can you try something for me [09:20] I know lvcreate won't let you use "snapshot" as a name, though [09:20] sure [09:20] edit /etc/udev/rules.d/65-dmsetup.rules [09:21] I think only snapshot-origin should get the bump; I don't think it's sensible to move the fs UUID to the "most recent snapshot" [09:21] remove the *snapshot*| bit [09:21] `23meg: the total download size is not calculated by adding all sizes of the displayed updates but by apt in the background. [09:21] then at the bottom, you'll see it set the link_priority [09:21] that should read [09:22] `23meg: apt only takes a look what needs to be changed to install all these updates.

I'm glad I gave myself a crash-course in udev debugging this weekend. I finally feel like I can help with this goo.

[09:30] now devmapper returns immediately having made the device node itself, and some time later, udev twiddles the permissions on the node [09:31] (actually, right now it replaces the node with a symlink, but that's for debugging) [09:31] I'm thinking about setting up a gdb breakpointer to be able to reproduce the race. [09:31] I've got a gdb bash script harness for doing this to things in general (for testing security races) [09:31] this is temporary though === keescook nods [09:31] upstream want the devmapper ioctl()s to not return until the udev event has finished processing === Arby [n=richard@82.152.169.97] has joined #ubuntu-devel [09:32] race: stop the devmapper library call as it returns; stop vol_id as it runs [09:32] yeah, that seems sane. are there problems with that from a kernel perspective?

What's the differernce between cdimages.u.c and releases.u.c? [11:22] could someone add some text to the top of cdimage.ubuntu.com pointing users at releases.u.c? [11:23] elmo: yes, I can do so [11:23] wise action [11:23] svu: cdimage.u.c contains stuff which either changes rapidly (dailies) or which we don't believe will have a too big audience, like DVDs and ports. [11:23] svu: you could of course think about maintaing a jigdo copy for yourself, this is not "daily" stuff, but always a cd image an a very recent patch level [11:23] Mithrandir: bonus points if you can do it for every directory [11:24] Mithrandir, I see... it was not clear from the names ... [11:24] Mithrandir: (which make require apache magic, so let me know, but I suspect/think y'all have .htaccess anyways) [11:24] ccm, sure I won't :) [11:24] s/make/may/ [11:24] svu: ;) [11:25] elmo: yes, it'll probably require some magic. I'll put it on my todo list for tomorrow since hacking apache configs close to midnight will make my wife angry when I crash at 0400. [11:25] wifes always conflict with professional duties. that's desperate [11:25] Mithrandir: heh, ok - thanks. I can file a bug instead if you'd prefer; it's not urgent, but it sounds like something obvious we should do at some stage [11:26] svu: I prefer not to have professional duties around midnight. :-P [11:26] elmo: yup, agreed. I'm just tired so doing it now's not a good idea. === svu bows to Mithrandir 's wisdom === Arador [n=dcg@137.pool80-103-2.dynamic.orange.es] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:27] Mithrandir, btw, would it be better to use x64 image for core2duo? [11:27] (with the perspective to setup xen) === dr_kabuto [n=franky@host66-137-static.43-88-b.business.telecomitalia.it] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:29] svu feisty images didnt change after release so they are the same images (md5 to confirm) [11:29] svu: if you have gobs of ram, it would be, but in most cases it won't make much of a difference. Some apps are a fair bit faster in 64 bit mode, some are a bit slower, but most will be slightly faster. === Mithrandir goes to nuke feisty from the daily directories [11:30] mrsn0, ghm. 29.05 is not exactly feisty's release day, is it? [11:30] :) [11:31] Mithrandir, 2G of RAM should be enough, I hope. Is xen ok with 64bit kernel? [11:31] svu: it works for me, at least. [11:31] uh whoops that was gutsy [11:31] good. I will give it a run too. I'll put vista inside if I manage to [11:32] mrsn0, :) [11:32] 20070418/ was alternate image i think [11:32] in ports/daily/ [11:32] but yes very confusing to find the alternate, unless using ubuntu.com :p [11:33] mrsn0: while in this particular case you happen to be correct, there's no guarantee of an image of a later date actually being the release image on cdimage. For release images, please use releases.ubuntu.com (or a closer mirror) [11:33] mrsn0, yes, that makes sense, 0418. anyway, it is already found... [11:33] evince ftbfs on 64bit due to "relocation R_X86_64_32S against `kpse_format_info' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC" (http://librarian.launchpad.net/7866732/buildlog_ubuntu-gutsy-amd64.evince_0.9.0-1ubuntu2_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz) [11:34] Mithrandir indeed, for iso testing i used cdimage so thats why imentioned really while the finished images were on different dates they were all moved to the correct download site [11:34] mrsn0: yes, I know. It was I who did it. :-P [11:34] anyway, thanks a lot to everybody for a lot of useful info [11:34] :-) [11:34] dholbach: a library isn't compiled with -fPIC then [11:34] your welcome svu/ sorry for confusion [11:35] mandriva builds tetex with -fPIC [11:35] should we do that with texlive-bin then? [11:35] for any libs, yes.
