mikmorgI was in here last night, and think I asked a misleading question..12:13
mikmorgalthough only slightly12:13
mikmorgIs there any way I can re-master the Ubuntu desktop CD?12:14
mikmorgI want to change initrd and stuff..12:14
mikmorgI think it would be easiest to just get all of the tools together to do a complete remastering.12:14
LaserJockI think it's quite a bit easier to start from an existing .iso12:15
mikmorghmm.. is it really that complicated?12:16
LaserJockbut perhaps some of the stuff at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu-cdimage/+branches12:16
mikmorgthanks12:17
mikmorgi'll see if i can do it without remastering12:17
mikmorgbut i like to have the option12:17

MrKeunerhi, are the translations I make using launchpad shared with the actual projects themselves?12:37
MrKeunerOr am i translating just for Ubuntu?12:38
LaserJockMrKeuner: #ubuntu-translators might know better than I, but I think the actual projects are welcome to get the translations but Ubuntu is the primary user now.12:42
MrKeunerwhat does primary user mean?12:43
LaserJockthe main one12:43
LaserJockso the translations at this point are mainly used by Ubuntu12:43
bhalehi LaserJock 12:43
LaserJockbut I think the actual projects can get them too if they want12:43

Keybukindeed10:19

shawarmaKeybuk: You can reuse your csr's.10:20

thomand they seem somewhat less awful than they used to be, too10:20
Keybukshawarma: how do I do that?10:21
ograpitti, you pinged last night ?10:21
cjwatsonpitti: except for powerpc, where OOo failed to build :-/10:21
shawarmaKeybuk: If you still have it, just use it again. AFAIR it has no timestamp, so you'd just be reusing the parameters.10:21
Keybukshawarma: assume that I know nothing about OpenSSL10:21
cjwatsonbut I guess the bug's dead, sure10:21
shawarmaKeybuk: Heh.10:21
Keybukand the fact that I have managed to successfully generate things before is simply due to being able to cargo-cult enough commands to make it work10:22
MithrandirKeybuk: C-r openssl ca in your shell with a long enough history? :-P10:22
pitticjwatson: right :/10:22
shawarmaKeybuk: Well, last time you did it, you probably produced a .csr somewhere in the process. This time around, skip the tutorial you're using up until right after the csr generation and start there. :)10:22
Keybukshawarma: I don't remember that file, and don't have them10:22
pittiogra: hi10:22
KeybukI have certs/something.pem and private/something.pem10:22
shawarmaKeybuk: Ah. 10:22

pittiogra: any tribe-1 relevant bugs from your side still?10:23

pittiogra: btw, current cd images are still not 100% good10:25

pittiogra: publisher is running, afterwards I'll build candidates10:25
ograwell, but i'll see if they die on any edubuntu specific stuff, virtualbox is cheap ;)10:25

pittiogra: just mentioning it for a community CFT10:26

shawarmalool: I'd say yes, unless the original maintainer explicitly has said that he/she would manage Ubuntu bugs.11:22
=== sivang [n=sivan@ubuntu/member/sivang] has joined #ubuntu-devel
loolIs there a way to avoid the header to turn up in Sources.gz and Packages.gz?11:25
loolOr should one simply comment the field out?  e.g. #XSBC-Original-Maintainer11:25
sivanghey people11:26
loolHmm XSBC seems to mean the header will be copied in Sources and Packages files while XS only makes it appear in Source; pehaps C stands for *.changes file11:26
LaserJockI believe so11:26
pittiheno: yes, 05 is obsolete in any case; 20070606.1 will be the good ones (ubuntu alternate is up, rest is building)11:28
loolRight, dpkg-source looks for ^X[BC] *S[BC] *- and copies these headers, dpkg-genchanges looks for ^X[BS] *C[BS] *- and dpkg-gencontrol for ^X[CS] *B[CS] *-11:28

mvoMithrandir: on the phone right now, but it may require some massaging into the build system03:47
dokoMithrandir: that was proposed by an intel engineer03:47
ograpitti, no idea, was there a prob with pkgsel in 06 that was fixed in 06.1 ?03:47
Mithrandirdoko: can you just do it, then?03:48
ograit hung at pkgsel for more than 1h ... might be virtualboox slowness though03:48

pochuDo we need transitional packages until the next LTS? If I set up conflicts/replaces/provides, the packages upgrades fine without them.03:58

pittipochu: that are two questions in one03:59
pittipochu: (1) if a transitional package applies to a transition started in dapper, it needs to stay until next LTS03:59
pittipochu: (2) if you merge two packages, or the obsolete one is a libray, then you usually don't need a transitional package at all04:00
pochuWell, it's a engine for liferea, but now it's integrated in the liferea package, so the C/R/P should be enough, right?04:01

pitticjwatson: I am doing an expert install with LVM; the menu only offers me to install lilo, no grub; is that a bug, or doesn't grub know how to boot stuff on LVM?04:03
cjwatsonpitti: the latter, AIUI04:04
cjwatsonogra: 7000 sounds correct04:04
cjwatsonogra: all installer-menu-items are to be multiplied by 100 in gutsy (most already have been)04:05
ogracjwatson, not if i want it directly after base install04:05
ograas we had it before debian intervened04:05
cjwatsonogra: base-installer = 650004:05
cjwatsonnext things are apt-setup and pkgsel at 700004:05
ograand pkgsel ?04:05
ograaha04:05
ograso 6800 would be for me then04:05
cjwatsonadmittedly if you set ltsp as 7000 then the ordering is probably undefined04:05
cjwatson6800 sounds fine04:05
ograits just silly to have to wait for the whole install to finish to find my errors ...04:06
ograburns a lot of time04:06
cjwatsonsure04:06
cjwatsonogra: there's a known pkgsel hang with some network (mis?)configurations04:06
cjwatsonit sits there waiting for apt-setup04:07
Mithrandirpitti: any chance for a NEW processing of osso-gwconnect (binary NEW)04:07
cjwatsonif the hang you're seeing is at 85%, that is; if it's right at the start of pkgsel, it might be a weird racy debconf-apt-progress/dpkg-preconfigure interaction that we're still trying to figure out04:07
ogracjwatson, heh, ok, then my guess was right 04:07

Mithrandirpitti: or just turn it back on auto04:23
shawarmapitti: Ah.04:23
pittiMithrandir: hmm as long as noone gives back packages in main etc. that shouldn't hurt04:24
Mithrandirpitti: and worst case, the archive and the CDs don't match, which is not really a big deal.04:25
pittiMithrandir: well, I'm afraid of archive desync if we need to rebuild CDs04:25
shawarmapitti: On my test installation I've hacked it to call its argv[1]  and hacked dhclient accordingly, but that renders a lot of the derooting useless, I think.04:26
pittibut the only way that comes to my mind how to circumvent unapproved is give-back; do you know another one?04:26
pittishawarma: right :)04:26
pittishawarma: it's not actually that easy without hardcoding04:26
=== agoliveira_brb is now known as agoliveira

pittishawarma: I sent it to upstream years ago, but they don't seem to be too keen adopting it04:27

Lureheno: bugs in iso tracker: just release critical should be listed or any (for example HW specific issue (but know workaround) that prevent install)04:28
shawarmapitti: Ok. Hum... Well, my hack at least doesn't leave anything with root privs listening on an open socket. 04:29
shawarmapitti: But still..04:30
pittishawarma: right, but the point is, if someone can execute code as dhcp user in the daemon and then can coerce the suid wrapper to execute an arbitrary script instead of the hardcoded client script, then the derooting doesn't help you04:30
=== agoliveira is now known as agoliveira_lunch
pittishawarma: with the hardcoding, all he can do is to change the network configuration (which is something you cannot take away from dhcp client)04:31
shawarmapitti: Well, dhclient.conf is root-writable only, so if the suid-wrapper could read the dhclient script from the config file, that would plug it somewhat.04:31
shawarmapitti: :) Clearly.04:31
pittishawarma: right, that's what I tought as well04:31
shawarmapitti: It doesn't solve the pass-an-alternative-dhclient-script-on-the-command-line use case, but it's good enough for my use.04:32

Keybukwasabi: I have zero objection to lvm-by-default06:50
Keybukit's evms that keeps me awake at night <g>06:50
wasabiWhat about removing lvm and md and using evms by default? :)06:50
wasabiThat'd be my vote.06:51
Keybukwasabi: evms doesn't work with 2.606:51
Keybukso BZZZT06:51
wasabiDoesn't work without hacks anyways06:51
Keybukwhere hacks = patching out kernel features06:51
wasabiHey, why is that anyways?06:51
Keybukactually, evms-like-features should be in the kernel06:52
wasabiSome new thing that only allows one subsystem to control a block device or something?06:52
wasabievms doesn't actually rally have any features. It does everything with md and lvm and devmapper06:52
Keybukonly one thing may claim one block device at once06:52
Keybuke.g. you can't mount it twice06:52
wasabiOkay, evms doesn't cause an issue with that.06:52
wasabiJust... don't mount it with anything else06:52
wasabiremove the kernel partition table support and you're golden06:52
Keybukit really screws over people who have evms installed and don't want to use it06:52
Keybukfor anything06:52
Keybukyou have to use it for *everything*06:52
Keybukeven USB devices06:53
wasabiWell, yeah, but that doesn't really *use* evms06:53
wasabialll evem does is construct devmapper nodes for the partitions06:53
wasabiWhich is arguably better done by evms using devmapper anyways06:53
wasabievms has no kernel presense.06:53
Keybukwhich doesn't work if the partition is being mounted06:54
pittiogra: seriously, I'm at loss with this; we should figure this out with cjwatson06:54
wasabiKeybuk: Which partition?06:54
Keybukwasabi: on the USB stick06:54
Keybukwasabi: tbh, my absolute major concern with evms is that nobody appears willing to maintain it06:54
wasabiHuh? 06:54
Keybukor fix some of its fundamental problems06:54
Keybukwhich means it's utterly out as a default option06:55
Keybukand shouldn't even be in main!06:55
wasabiYeah, that's my major problem too. It's not any sort of priority for anybody.06:55
wasabi(ya'll)06:55
Keybukwasabi: that includes community members <g>06:55
wasabiuh huh06:55
wasabiYou know that the kernel hack goes away if you use evms to construct all partition s(even for usb disks) from user space, right?06:56
wasabiThe problem is /dev/sda1 and /dev/evms/sda1 both existing.06:56
Keybukright06:56
wasabiSo simply remove /dev/sda1, and link it to /dev/evms/sda106:56
Keybukthe problem is also that /dev/evms/sda1 exists at all06:56
Keybuksince that means evms is trying to manage /dev devices06:56
Keybukit should leave that to udev06:56
pitticjwatson: edubuntu live was oversized suddenly, so ogra first dropped the pt langpack off amd64 (in 20070606.2) and then gcompris-sound-* from i386 (in .3); yet, those packages still appear on the live systems06:56
wasabiYes, a bug that should be fixed. :)06:57
wasabiYou're not forced to usr /dev/evms though, you can use /dev/mapper06:57
pitticjwatson: does anything need to happen to the seeds (mirroring somewhere etc.) before cdimage picks them up?06:57
Keybukwasabi: it's just a general indication of its evilness06:57
wasabiIt's a general indication of it's less than well maintained-ness.06:57
wasabiDidn't used to have udev06:58
wasabiDo you think it sucks as a technology though?06:58
pitticjwatson: my guess is "no", since the the logs do show the diff of the seeds in "Checking for other task changes"; however, at the end the packages are still there06:58
Keybukwasabi: I think that evms should be un-necessary07:00
wasabiWhy?07:00
Keybukie. the kernel should present "disks", and we should be able to allocate block devices on those however we want07:00
wasabiI don't follow.07:00
KeybukZFS style07:00
wasabiOh.07:01
Keybukevms is a huge amount of code to work around the fact that the kernel doesn't do it by default07:01
wasabiI don't really think that. I think evms is just a pretty interface and API to what the kernel already does.07:01
iwjDammit, how long does it take libc to build ?07:01
wasabiI don't really think pretty API and interface belong in the kernel...07:01
Keybukwasabi: it didn't seem that pretty to me07:02
wasabiThe API?07:02
Keybukdevmapper seemed easier to understand07:02
wasabievms *is* devmapper07:02
wasabiwait... let me rephrase07:02
wasabiwhat about pumping mapping characters into devmapper do you find pretty?07:02
KeybukI don't need to, LVM seems to do taht07:02
iwjKeybuk: Did you get a chance to look at my new disk full testing spec ?07:03
wasabiSo you think raid and lvm should be integrated?07:03
Keybukiwj: not yet, sorry07:03
Keybukwasabi: sure07:03
ograpitti. dinner time for me, i'll look through the logs afterwards, there must be something in there07:03
KeybukI just think we should have disks and filesystems07:03
pittiogra: I need to leave soon as well07:03
pittiogra: ok, will you care for this?07:04
Keybuk"give me a 4GB mirrored filesystem" => then let the $something worry about how it gives it to you07:04
wasabiI guess I'd agree.... I just don't think what you want is going to happen in the next 10 years.07:04
pittiogra: not sure whether you'd want to release edubuntu live oversized...07:04
wasabiAnd I think evms is a much better solution to typing mdadm and lv* commands until then.07:04

ograpitti. i'll care, dont worry, its not the end of the world to skip one flavor for one iso with the first milestone07:04
cjwatsonpitti: and then a livefs rebuild after that's been published07:04
pitticjwatson: erk, since when is that?07:05
cjwatsonpitti: since ages07:05
ogracjwatson. hah, damned, i'm always unsure if we start a new cycle07:05
cjwatsonthere is a brief delay in seed propagation, but as you say it doesn't sound like that07:05
iwjKeybuk: IWBNI you could at least skim it to see if it was the kind of thing you were after ...07:05
ograpitti. updating the package07:06
pitticjwatson: hm, I was never aware of rebuilding -meta whenever I dropped langpacks07:06
Keybukiwj: sorry, I've been swamped by a zillion things the last couple of days.  it is high on my priority list07:06
pittiogra: ok, if that helps; neither edubuntu-desktop nor -server sound matching for a change of the 'live' seed, so I wasn't sure07:06
wasabiI sort of like EVMS's potential to allow commercial people to write plugins for it too... it's not just restricted to md and lvm... you can write a plugin to manage your... oh, Adaptec Card. And the abilities of hte card will integrate into the interface.07:07
iwjKeybuk: Fair enough.07:07
wasabiAnd expanding and shrinking operations will take everything into account, the file system, the adaptec card, the lvm stuff ontop of that.07:07

bryycemvo, glatzor, here is what he's been working on:  http://albertomilone.com/wordpress/?p=9309:41
tseliotI saw you're using randr's C code09:41
tseliotbtw, a guy is helping me to change the UI09:41
mvotseliot: yes, I'm working on ctypes bindings so that the native C api can be wrapped09:41
tseliotthat's the best approach09:41
mvotseliot: are you the one behind the gui frontend for the xrandr binary?09:42
tseliotyep09:42
mvonice work!09:42
tseliotI don't know C yet09:42
mvoI saw some screenshots on the planet 09:42
tseliotthe new interface looks much better09:42
tseliot;)09:42
mvo:)09:42
tseliotit already works09:42
tseliotit only lacks a logger09:43
mvois your code available in some public repository?09:43
tseliotnot yet09:43
tseliotyou know I would like to clean it a bit09:43
mvomaybe we can try to agree on a python interface so that we can have a backend based on calling binary and a backend based on the ctypes implementation  09:44
=== glatzor is a little bit sad that tseliot was faster :)
mvohaha09:44
bryyce:-)09:44
tseliothehehe09:44
tseliotI only used xrandr's output09:45
tseliotthen I manipulate the output09:45
glatzortseliot: you mentioned the current git version of xrandr? Does it contain a lot of improvements?09:45
=== pygi wonders how good parsing output is, as it might easily break :(
bryyceglatzor, btw, I found some errors in the code currently in bzr - I posted a patch to comment out the bits of code that were complaining09:45
bryyceglatzor: wasn't sure how to fix them09:45
tseliotI can't compile it09:45
tseliotat least yesterday it didn't compile09:46
tseliotKeith Packard told me that09:46
glatzorbryyce: oh, I already rejected your bug. :)09:46
tseliotthe new randr allows you to select between PAL/NTSC09:46
bryyceI trust that's because you had some real fixes? ;-)09:46
glatzorbryyce: to use the glade file of the bzr repository you have to use the --data-dir=data option09:46
=== mvo needs to leave for 10min and water the garden
mvobryyce: or build it with debian/rules arch-build and install the debs in debian/arch-build09:47
=== mvo will read scrollback
bryyceglatzor: hmm09:48
glatzorbryyce: the DisplayCOnfig class is an inherit of SImpleGladeApp that makes all the glade widgets attribute of the class09:48
glatzoroh awkward grammar :)09:49
tseliotmmm09:49
glatzorSimpleGladeApp provides all glade widgets as attributes of the class09:49
tseliotyes, that was clear :-)09:50
tseliotwhere's the gladefile?09:50
bryyceah ok.  perhaps a README would help.  before it ran out of bzr without needing that09:50
=== Martinp23 [n=Martinp2@wikimedia/Martinp23] has joined #ubuntu-devel
bryycetseliot: there's one in the data/ dir09:52
tseliotok, thanks09:52
bryyceglatzor, with this I still get an error:  $ ./displayconfig-gtk --data=data/displayconfig.glade                                            09:52
bryyce    from displayconfigabstraction import *09:52
bryyceImportError: No module named displayconfigabstraction09:52
glatzorbryyce: sudo ./displayconfig-gtk --data-dir=data09:53
bryycesame thing with ./displayconfig-gtk --data-dir=data/                                                         09:53
glatzorbryyce: you need to install the guidance-backends09:53
tseliotit works well here09:54
bryyceahh, right this is my feisty system, that's not available for it09:54
glatzorbryyce: YOu can find feisty packages in my file repository that I mentioned in my last mail09:54
tseliotbut I'm using feisty09:54
tselioto_O09:54
glatzortseliot: bryyce: http://glatzor.de/filesink/displayconfig/feisty/09:55
tseliotI mean that it's working on feisty09:55
bryyceok cool, got it up on my gutsy system09:55
tseliotit's not fully functional but I guess it parsed my xorg.conf09:56
glatzortseliot: bryyce: I just pushed my today's train ride outcome. So perhaps worth to update your repositories09:56
bryyceok09:56
glatzortseliot: what problems do you have?09:56
glatzortseliot: by the way where is your bzr repository for the xrandr gui?09:57
tseliotI didn't set up a bzr repository yet09:57
glatzorbryyce: I hope that we will get a shared guidance repository soon09:57
glatzorbryyce: then we can work more on the backend09:57
=== bryyce nods
tseliotglatzor: what's your bzr repo?09:58
glatzortseliot: every Ubuntu project needs a bzr repository :)09:58
cjwatsonogra: ok, cprov and I have come up with a plan which I think I can write a patch for09:58
ogracool09:58
tseliotOk, I'll set up one then09:58
glatzortseliot: och, for displayconfig-gtk I merge changes of my local branches to the ubuntu branch09:58
pygiglatzor, we should all use mercurial or git :P09:59
=== pygi hides
tseliotI'm getting the code with bzr10:03
bryycetseliot, glatzor, what do you think the potential is for joining forces, as opposed to having two separate xrandr gui config tools?10:04
tseliotbryyce: it's a good question10:05

M_A_KI've tried to ask in #ubuntu and #kubuntu, bot no answer.10:06
cjwatsonLure: could you try to reproduce bug 118967 with 'ubiquity --debug', please?10:06
ubotuLaunchpad bug 118967 in ubiquity "ubiquity crashed with IndexError in child()" [High,Confirmed]  https://launchpad.net/bugs/11896710:06
bryyceglatzor: what do you think?10:06
cjwatsonactually, I'll put that in the bug10:07
Lurecjwatson: I can try later tonight (as I am working on this machine currently)10:08
mvotseliot: what do you think about the "sharing a abstract interface to xrandr1.2" idea? this way we could share a lot of work. we could use the xrandr binary-calling backend initially and at some point switch to the c-based implementation10:10
mvoand we could try to agree on a gui 10:11
mvoI understand that the backend that uses the xrandr binary works already, whereas the ctypes implemntaiton in ~30%-50% done (at most)10:11

tseliotok :)10:18
tseliotI have tried displauconfig from bazaar and installed guidance10:19
tseliotI have a question for you glatzor10:19
tseliotit seems to detect 2 displays on my laptop10:20
tseliothowever it says that screen 2 is disabled10:20
tseliotthe problem is that screen 2 doesn't exist10:20
tseliotand the driver is detected as i810 but I'm using the intel driver10:21
glatzortseliot: the backend makes some assumptions that are perhaps not always the best :)10:21
glatzortseliot: 2 displays are regarded as a standard feature of laptops10:22
=== abattoir [n=abattoir@59.92.54.130] has joined #ubuntu-devel

tseliotyou can see whether an app is connected through randr10:23
tseliotI mean a device, not an app10:23
tseliotsorry10:23
glatzortseliot: Think of the users: "Hey, my laptop has  got a second hidden device. The bad hardware vendor have included all the hardware but not a plug!"10:24
bryyceglatzor, don't know if you saw it but I also sent in a patch to add --version support10:24
tseliotLOL10:24
glatzorbryyce: oh, it is already commited10:24
glatzorbryyce: why do you want to change the usage info?10:24
glatzorbryyce: I skipped this part10:24
bryyceah, didn't see it in the changelog10:25
glatzorbryyce: It was some minutes ago :)10:25
bryyceoh!10:25
bryycewhat was the usage info before?  I actually didn't look to see if it was already printing something10:25
glatzortseliot: one of our main problems is that we have got two resources of information: the xorg.conf and the live detected data10:25
tseliotthat's what I was going to ask10:26
tseliotdoes displayconfig test whether the driver supports randr 1.2?10:27
glatzortseliot: so we guidance tries to detect the screens.  but we cannot make a clear connection between them.10:27
glatzortseliot: it is just hopping that the first detected device is also the first device in the config10:27
glatzortseliot: not yet.10:28
mvothat is why we would need that abstract xrandr python interface ;) 10:28
tseliot:-D10:29
glatzortseliot: there is already an instant apply infrastructure in guidance that e.g. applies resolution changes immediately.10:29
glatzortseliot: so this is the place where we can hook in.10:29
glatzortseliot: have you managed to get the desktop merging running?10:30
tseliotI haven't tried it yet10:30
glatzortseliot: I always have got the problem that I am limited to resolutions that are not usable10:30
glatzortseliot: e.g. two 640x480 screens 10:31
tseliotglatzor: did you set the virtual resolution10:31

tseliotglatzor: e.g. putting one screen beside the other?10:34

glatzortseliot: right.10:35

glatzorbryyce: which chipset?10:35
tseliotglatzor: it works, however KDE seems to mirror some windows on the 2nd screens10:36
tseliotglatzor: there are some graphical corruptions10:36
glatzorbryyce: on Saturday there will be our next LUG meeting. I hope that I can test some systems there :)10:36
bryyceglatzor, radeon R350 + RV28010:37
glatzorbryyce: two cards?10:37
bryyceI just tried out the location bar, and got an error with it - "No such file or directory: '/var/lib/displayconfig-gtk/locations/home.conf'10:37
bryyceyup10:37
glatzorbryyce: have you compared the configs with the ones created by the ati tool?10:37
bryycewell, one card plus one on-board10:37
bryyceno I haven't used the ati tool10:38
glatzorbryyce: please fill a bug and attach xconfig and pcitable10:38
tseliotglatzor: back on the virtual resolution10:39
glatzorbryyce: oh, you have to create the directory /var/lib/displayconfig-gtk/locations10:39
glatzorbryyce: this is done by the package but it should also be done by the code10:39
tseliotglatzor: you should set a virtual resolution which can contain both resolutions10:39
bryyceglatzor: ahh, ok10:40
glatzortseliot: I get more and more the impression that xrandr will not avoid hacking on the xorg.conf :/10:40
tseliotglatzor: it's only an option10:40
tseliotglatzor: and I think it would be easy to set10:41
glatzortseliot: so easy to automate it?10:41
bryyceglatzor: why are there two cards listed on the graphics card page?  It has i810 and vesa shown10:41
tseliotglatzor: yep10:42
glatzorbryyce: you are using the fallback xorg?10:42
tseliotglatzor: I think that using the re module would be (almost) enough10:42
glatzortseliot: from data source do you want to calculate it?10:43
bryyceglatzor: not intentionally10:43
glatzorbryyce: the backend has got a problem with dual head cards10:43
glatzorin the fallback mode, since it was not written for this use case :)10:43
tseliotglatzor: it's not hard but it would require the user to restart the Xserver10:43
glatzorbut I think this could be fixed 10:43
tseliotglatzor: or maybe displayconfig can do that10:44
glatzortseliot: and that is the point where we loose all the benefits of xrandr10:44
tseliotglatzor: I don't think it's hard to implement10:44
glatzortseliot: are there any problems using a too large citural size?10:45
tseliotglatzor: nope10:45
tseliotglatzor: randr tailors a part of the buffer10:45
glatzorbryyce: this is documented in the TODO file10:46
bryyceglatzor: great10:47
glatzorbryyce: I am unsure if the locations should also include the driver and videoram settings10:48

bryyceheh cool10:52
glatzorbryyce: except of a bug, that is already fixed now it worked without any problems10:53
glatzorbryyce: I have got a location at home with a dual screen setup and a location "on the road" with only a single display10:54
glatzorbryyce: So I see the major use case in switching dual settings, connected screens and resolutions10:55
glatzorbryyce: but perhaps there are people like mvo who can only suspend their laptop using the vesa driver10:56
glatzorbryyce: it would be nice if he was allowed to switch the drivers in a nice way.10:56
=== bryyce nods
tseliotglatzor: that would require restarting the xserver10:57
glatzorbryyce: there are also some people who prefer the open source nvidia driver for their daily work10:57
glatzortseliot: we always require restarting x :)10:58
glatzortseliot: xrandr is only used on single head systems10:58
tseliotglatzor: ???10:58
glatzortseliot: xrandr 1.0 tends to crash xinerama setups10:58
glatzortseliot: so if you enable your second monitor in displayconfig you have to log off10:59
tseliotglatzor: I wasn't aware of that problem11:01
tseliotglatzor: do you use "sudo pkill Xorg" to restart the Xserver from displayconfig?11:02
glatzortseliot: that is why we are interested in getting xrandr 1.2 support11:02
tseliotglatzor: aaah11:02
glatzortseliot: no we just send the USR1 signal to gdm11:02
glatzortseliot: gdm will restart the xserver when all users logged off11:03
tseliotglatzor: ok that would be better if more users are logged in11:03
glatzortseliot: I haven't looked into the kde frontend.11:04
glatzortseliot: you are a KDE user, right?11:04
tseliotglatzor: actually I'm a GNOME user11:04

glatzortseliot: pyqt isn't as nice as pygtk.11:06
tseliotglatzor: I have never tried to make a branch11:06
