LordLimecatis there a known bug whereby if ubuntu crashes, theres a chance syslog will have a line filled with "^@" on it, causing gnome-system-log to crash?12:36
LordLimecatits happened twice, and removing the offendign line (thru nano, since gedit is also unable to read the file) seems to fix the issue12:37

mdzLordLimecat: I have never seen such behaviour; it could be caused by filesystem corruption01:07
LordLimecatyea, well, its possibly because upon returning to comp (both times) it wasnt responding, so i tried alt+sysrq+x, no response....01:07
LordLimecatso i did alt+sysrq+b01:07
LordLimecat.,....and rebooted01:07
elmoit's fairly common on a system crash, unless you use data=journal01:08
elmoand if you use xfs, it's basically a given01:08
LordLimecatbut the exact same thing, same data written, same quantity01:08
LordLimecat1745 bytes worth of 0s01:08
LordLimecatcant be random01:08
LordLimecat...can it?01:08
elmo(it == the 0x0's in files that are open and being written to at time of crash)01:08
LordLimecatwell, there was data written RIGHT before system went down, after the 0s--01:09
LordLimecatnoting that a reboot was requested01:09
mjg59Which filesystem do you use?01:09
LordLimecatext301:09
LordLimecati MAY have changed its writeback01:09
LordLimecatpossibly01:09
LordLimecathow do i check quickly01:09
mjg59Eh. Data is certainly not guaranteed to be there if you don't reboot cleanly01:09
mjg59Before doing sysrq+b, do sysrq+s01:10
LordLimecatcouldnt :( couldnt get to terminal01:10
LordLimecatoh, i generally do that01:10
LordLimecat...but didnt this time01:10
LordLimecatis there a way to...like..bump it to init 1 with a system call?01:10
kylemthe problem is likely that the oops output you see is being written01:10
LordLimecatso this isnt really a bug?01:11
kylemand since it's the same oops, will always be the same length...01:11
kylemit's a bug that gnome-system-log is crashing.01:11
LordLimecatlol, yea, it was a PITA to track it down01:11
LordLimecatluckily, gedit also refuses to open the files01:11
LordLimecatmakes it easy to find01:11
LordLimecat...is it a bad idea to make a script that finds and removes 1745 0s from those 3  logs?01:12
LordLimecatcould that cause any damage?01:12

mneptokthully: LP is the mechanism by whcih such things are done04:43
mneptok*which04:43
thullyI haven't managed to get any response via that channel...04:49
mneptokbug #?04:50
persiathully: If you have a solution, try attaching a patch against the ubuntu git repository to the bug, and adding the patch tag.04:50
thullywell, the solution is kind of hackish at this point 04:51
thully92635 is the bug # - me and some others have used the mentioned workaround patch to get suspend on first-generation MacBooks04:52
thullyFor some reason, 1g MacBooks are funky with their suspend...04:52
thullyI also was going to comment on - but I can't find the bug # off hand, though it has been reported - the absolutely craptastic state of the appletouch driver04:54
mneptokthat's not a bug, though04:55
mneptokthat's a feature request04:55
thullyit is a bug, as it is SO craptastic that you can't change the mouse pointer acceleration - something you can do even with dumb old usbhid04:55
mneptokupstream has acknowledged this as a bug?04:57
thullyI haven't contacted upstream - all I know is that appletouch as shipped w/ Feisty doesn't let you change pointer acceleration04:57
thullyright now, I'm actually running in VMware as I got sick of the issues - figure I may download gutsy and install on the bare metal tonight to check on these issues04:58
mneptokdoes it have the cntrols to do so, but just doesn't do it?04:58
thullyyes - if you go into GNOME's mouse control panel - or Xorg.conf - and change the acceleration, nothing happens04:59
mneptokare you on the Macbook now?05:08
thullyyes - I don't have a raw install right now, though, as I just got it back from repairs and it was wiped by Apple05:16
thullyI could install Feisty now, or I could get a Gutsy ISO (would have to be later - am on satellite with strict bandwidth caps) and try that05:17
thullyBTW, just reported the trackpad issue - 11996405:18
mneptoksudo rmmod appletouch && sudo modprobe appletouch05:26
mneptokthat may clear up some Appletouch woes. try it next time you're in Ubuntu.05:27
thullyI could try the Feisty live CD in a few minutes if that would help...05:28
mneptokup to you. i'm not a maintainer for any of that stuff. ;)05:29
thullyOK05:30
mneptokjust something to try.05:30
mneptokand if you narrow it to the kernel module, you're making progress.05:30
thullyOK - I figure I can find out some from the Feisty live CD - I'll get the Gutsy one if it seems I may be able to learn more that way05:31
johanbrthully: It's possible you'll have more luck in #ubuntu-kernel .05:33
thullyOK - wondered if there was a "kernel" channel...05:33
thullyAlso, on a (somewhat-unrelated) note, is VMware considered a supported configuration for running/testing Ubuntu in general?  I'm using it ATM because my hardware works better and I can switch OSes fast (still use OS X a lot - I like both OSes)05:35
thullyobviously not for testing issues w/ MacBook hardware (like the aforementioned appletouch issues) but just in general05:36
johanbrthully: I don't know. My guess is that it would depend on the sort of bug you encounter. For higher-level bugs I'd think it'd be okay, but as you say not for kernel/hardware things.05:41
thullywell, it does seem like kernel/hardware issues would be valid - though my hardware would basically be a VMware VM instead of the actual machine I'm running on05:42
mneptokthully: the kernel speaks to hardware. VMWare is not hardware.05:45
mneptokthully: an abstraction layer between the kernel and metal is nothing but a DIStraction layer when reporting bugs.05:45
johanbrRight. My guess would be that the kernel developers might just say "vmware is closed source, we have no way of knowing which bugs the virtualization introduces". If you really want to know, you should ask them, though.05:46
mneptokVMWare cannot keep accurate time. even with ntpd installed.05:46
=== jvw [i=jeroen@220pc220.sshunet.nl] has joined #ubuntu-devel
mneptoklet that inform your thinking about VMWare's relationship to hardware.05:47
johanbrIf you really want to view vmware as hardware, it's not on the list of supported architectures, in any case.05:47
mneptokVMWare *is* hardware when it comes to its interactions with the kernel.05:48
thullyI see, I knew that would come up.  05:48
mneptok(gross oversimplification, but the sentiment is valid)05:48
thullyI wouldn't be filing many kernel bugs in any case - most of them I'd test would be bare metal bugs (like appletouch)05:48
mneptokthully: VMWare can't keep its clock straight. you want to report issues with input device timings?05:49
mneptokthully: Appletouch is hardware. the kernel talks to hardware. VMWare stands between the kernel and hardware ....05:49
thullyappletouch isn't in vmware - those were two totally separate issues05:50
thullysorry for confusing everyone05:51
thullyI just meant in general if I were to use VMware at some point and file bugs - not using vmware to test macbook hardware bugs05:52
mneptokeh, if everyone apologised every time i didn't understand coherent English, IRC would be nothing but "sorry, mnep"05:52
mneptokjust be sure to mention VMWare's place in the recipe when appropriate. :)05:52
thullyI realized that it was pretty much like its own hardware05:53

thullyfor those of you who were on when I was discussing my appletouch problem - I've discovered that an rmmod and modprobe of the module fixes the issue until X is restarted06:32
thullyafter X is restarted, you have to do it again if you want proper acceleration06:33

shawarmaI'm looking at the squid merge. Apart from the stuff that's mentioned in the last changelog, the patch that MoM has created also contains a bunch of translation releated stuff. Now, since the last patch (the one between our previous version and the debian version on which it's based) did not contain any of that stuff, I don't quite get where it came from? It may just be because I have absolutely no idea how all our translation stuff is handled.08:40
Hobbseeshawarma: i believe that launchpad automaticlaly updates the translations on build, or something.  it's thru launchpad, regardless.08:41

cjwatsonHobbsee: unfortunately, there's a long-standing bug in soyuz noting that the reject interface doesn't let us give a reason, so it relies on the rejecting archive admin remembering to fish out all the e-mail addresses and send mails by hand09:58

cjwatsonthere's a special note in the ubiquity partman frontend that has to say "this is measured in 1000000, not 1048576" or words to that effect10:36
Keybukit's true, disk manufactures do actually use 1000 byte multiple, not 102410:36
cjwatsonindeed10:36
cjwatsonexcept sometimes they use a mix10:36
cjwatson1024000 and that sort of thing10:37
Keybukheh, yeah, sometimes they like to use thousands and millions of 1024 bytes10:37
Keybukpersonally I think that kilo, mega, giga are the only way forward10:37
HobbseeKeybuk: and rid the world of crappy imperial measurements, and timezones, while you're at it, please.10:37
Keybukbecause they by saying "this drive has a capacity of 100GB (100 billion bytes)", you're guaranteeing the minimum number of bytes it is likely to have :p10:37
Keybuktrying to be more specific is just guess-work10:38
hungerKeybuk: KB is defined as 1000Byte (MB as 1000KB, and so forth).10:39
hungerKeybuk: No guesswork required.10:39
hungerKeybuk: 1024Bytes are a KiB.10:39
cjwatsonthat's a retcon though10:40
hungerThere actually is a international standard about that stuff...10:41
cjwatsonit is unarguably not what KB has always meant, and thus guesswork is required.10:41
Keybukhunger: there's an international standard cup of tea, that doesn't mean you can't drink coffee10:41
hungerKeybuk: Of course not. But then you as the distribution guys need to fix it;-)10:41
Keybukyeah, I think we should put this to the technical board ...10:42
KeybukI vote for "use KB and MB and GB everywhere, and eradicate all uses of KiB, MiB and GiB because they cause confusion"10:42
mptbecause we have nothing better to do?10:42
hungerKeybuk: Yes, rage against the standards!10:42
Keybukhunger: stupid standards, yes10:43
Keybukjust because someone wrote a "standard", doesn't mean it's right10:43
hungerKeybuk: Well, it tries to end the confusion you complained about. Just sticking to "we always did it that way" will not do it.10:43
Keybukespecially when the person wrote a standard didn't reference the current practice10:44
cjwatsonthe "KiB" standard has caused more confusion than the prior practice did10:44
Keybukthat's like "I have a better idea how to do this, if I write a standard, then people will obey me!  muahahaha!"10:44

Keybukto measure bandwidth10:46
Keybukwhich is so utterly bogus, it's funny10:46
Keybukbandwidth should be measured in thousands, millions, etc. of bytes10:46
Burgundaviawhat shocks me is just how much effort people have put into this whole thing10:47
Burgundaviathere are huge threads on both ubuntu and debian-devel10:47

Keybukhunger: that's the point, it isn;t10:47
seb128Burgundavia: "huge"? you don't read debian-devel often, do you? ;)10:47
Burgundaviaseb128: right, moderately large :)10:47
Burgundaviahuge would be an Ubuntu flamewar10:47
Burgundaviaanti-ubuntu, that is10:48
hungerKeybuk: Yes. I don't care how it is measured, as long as the proper unit of measurement is given.10:48
Keybukhunger: and in this case, the wrong unit of measurement is given10:48
Keybukhunger: which is the case with every instance of Ki I've ever seen10:48
hungerKeybuk: So far I had no trouble with that. All Ki I noticed so far (and that does *not* include ifconfig;-) seemed to be properly 1024 based.10:49
Keybukhunger: inappropriately 1024 basde10:49
Keybukhunger: ie. using multiples of 1024 for things that should be multiples of 100010:49
hungerKeybuk: This discussion is a bit like using inches or centimeters.10:50
Keybukexactly ;)  let's standardise on centimetres!10:50
Keybuk(and spell it right :p)10:50
hungerKeybuk: As long as the proper unit is attached I do not really care. I just don't like the KiB on 1000 based values (never encountered those) or KB being based on 1024 (happens a lot).10:51
Keybukit shouldn't be KiB anyway10:51
Keybukit should by kiB10:51

siretartoh, I'm rather curious, if you are not comfortable with it, I'd be interested in knowing why12:42
siretartfor all fans of patch systems, please have a look at http://wiki.tauware.de/misc:vcs-packaging212:42
siretartpitti: I've seen that ecryptfs is in source NEW for quite some time now. Do you happen to know if there's a problem with the package?12:42
pittisiretart: no, there's just a lack of people doing source NEW :/12:42
siretartah12:42
pygisiretart, it's not that I'm not comfortable, it's just the time it would take me for it to become routine task would better be spent fixing other things :)12:42

pittisiretart: tomorrow it's seb128's day, friday is mine; I'll coordinate with Seb to get to it eventually12:43
siretartpygi: oh, sure12:43
pygisiretart, mvo has one debdiff for me to upload, and then brasero will be in pretty good shape12:43
pygineed to find a fix for ppc & sparc build fail, but that's low priority right now12:43
siretartpitti: its just because it is a package of xxxxx1, which I'm mentoring. he was asking me yesterday about it12:43
mjg59Keybuk: ?12:43
mjg59Keybuk: "The fsync() function shall request that all data for the open file descriptor named by fildes is to be transferred to the storage device associated with the file described by fildes. The nature of the transfer is implementation-defined. The fsync() function shall not return until the system has completed that action or until an error is detected."12:44
cjwatsonmjg59: read the rationale too12:44
cjwatson"If _POSIX_SYNCHRONIZED_IO is not defined, the wording relies heavily on the conformance document to tell the user what can be expected from the system. It is explicitly intended that a null implementation is permitted."12:44
cjwatson(I don't know whether we define _POSIX_SYNCHRONIZED_IO)12:44
pygisiretart, did you manage to think up of a sane solution for cdrecord/wodim/cdrskin whatever mess?12:44
pygiI mean how will we solve it12:45
pygi(update-alternatives, or just link wodim/cdrecord against cdrskin (the solution which I prefer))12:45
mjg59cjwatson: That seems to effectively state that the null implementation would only be valid in the case where there's no way to guarantee persistant storage anyway12:45
mjg59(Or where write() is synchronous)12:46
cjwatson"file system is on a network" is a not-wholly-unreasonable case where that is true12:46
cjwatsonand where locking is interesting12:47
Keybukmjg59: Mac OS X is the interesting case here; it's fsync doesn't12:48
mjg59cjwatson: Well, _POSIX_SYNCHRONIZED_IO is defined on Linux, so it's not an issue for us12:50
mjg59So (assuming we conform...) it can't be an issue for any of the network filesystems supported on Linux :)12:50
mjg59Keybuk: It looks like MacOS fsync() transfers it to the storage device, but doesn't ensure that it's hit the platters12:52

thullyhi - I've identified an issue with the MacBook trackpad on feisty and gutsy tribe 1 - you can't change pointer acceleration *at all*06:11
Keybukthully: please use launchpad.net to file a bug06:11
thullyhowever, doing rmmod appletouch and modprobe appletouch fixes it until the next time you restart X06:11
persiathully: DId you comment on the relevant bug after the last time this was discussed?06:12
thullyI did that - wondering if anyone may have a clue where this issue is...06:12
cjwatsonthully: (FWIW, you asked about whether there was a team concentrating on MacBook issues; I think that MacBooks are sufficiently mainstream now and well enough supported by stuff like the installer that they don't urgently need a separate team)06:12
Keybukthully: those people are more likely to respond to your bug report than answer questions here, this is not a support channel06:13
persiathully: Wait then.  Someone will look at it as soon as they have time.06:13
thullyI just came here to confirm that doing an rmmod and modprobe of the appletouch module resolves the problem until X is restarted06:14
thullywhich would seem to narrow things down a bit06:15

gesershawarma: more examples: ubuntu-calendar-*, ubuntu-{desktop,standard}08:51
shawarmacjwatson: It looks weird, because it's the previous ubuntu version mixed the ubuntu and debian checks, and I'm now splitting them entirely again.08:51
shawarmageser: Yes, and the kernel packages..08:51
slomo_pitti: any idea what it could be? i don't feel like testing every single of my packages that i have installed :)08:51
pittislomo_: still, unless it's some really exotic font, shouldn't gs itself depend on fonts?08:52

shawarmaSuper. Thanks!08:53
slomo_pitti: probably :) and i don't think it's exotic... at least it worked with older gs :)08:54
gesershawarma: there is no -proposed-updates in Ubuntu, only -proposed or -updates08:54
pittislomo_: that should be fixed in gs itself then; if you find out the package, please file a bug against ghostscript and milestone it08:55

cjwatsonshawarma: uploaded now with that change08:58

cjwatsonvim already does AFAIK08:59
shawarmacjwatson: excellent. thanks.08:59
cjwatsonICBW08:59
carlosRiddell: not exactly, Jannick Kuhr says that we have old translations for it08:59
carlosRiddell: and I thought we didn't import any .po file for gutsy08:59
pitticjwatson: UNRELEASED always appears in inverted red in vim, so I guess not08:59
cjwatsonlooks like I am wrong08:59
pitti(but *shrug*, not a biggie at all)08:59
carlosRiddell: but I just checked our logs and found that we indeed imported the files for Gutsy08:59

=== highvoltage [n=highvolt@196.1.61.41] has joined #ubuntu-devel
shawarmapitti: Exactly. I'd rather consider it a feature, actually.09:00
carlosRiddell: so maybe we imported old files. Is that possible? that we didn't take latest KDE version for the source code in Gutsy?09:00
pittishawarma: it could be ... green!09:00
slomo_pitti: if it is gsfonts shall i really depend on it in gs? :)09:01
cjwatsonpitti: I sort of like it that way. It helps me to remember to un-UNRELEASED it09:02
pittislomo_: in earlier days, gs-common pulled it in, so I guess that the lack of a direct depends is just an inadvertent side effect09:02
slomo_pitti: ok... if it is gsfonts' fault i'll readd it :)09:03
pittislomo_: thanks muchly09:03

superm1_evand, jetsradiem had been talking to you about a possible merge up of mythbuntu ubiquity changes if we cleaned them up to be more modular.  I havent spoken to him in a few days, what eventually came of that?11:45
=== Monk-e [n=guido@c529dd229.cable.wanadoo.nl] has joined #ubuntu-devel
evandsuperm1_: Ubiquity isn't really set up for accepting such merges (that is, items that are not going to be the default), but I told him I'd look over the mythbuntu code11:47
superm1_evand, Well my thought was having a third UI for us available, mythbuntu-ui that was a child based upon gtk-ui so as to not break things.  if the main ubiquity start script received something like ubiquity --mythbuntu then we could be started, otherwise follow as normal11:48
superm1_and then we could use our own glade file and still be able to source all normal functions that are part of gtk-ui and still get all the partitioning changes that are going in11:49
superm1_and override as necessary for our things11:49

superm1_I'm a bit new to inheritance in python, but if its like C, I would imagine that the derived class would be able to override the base class functions (and hence override things like say a run() function that would normally be in gtkui.py.  things wouldn't be too bad to keep in sync then I dont think)12:05

superm1_evand, have you looked over the types of changes that we have yet in a debdiff or no?12:10

However, casper is not installing it automatically as it is supposed to..12:11
