| mikmorg | I'm trying to work a bit with Ubiquity, but am having a hard time understanding exactly where it is pulling from. Does ubiquity copy casper's live root to the harddrive? Does it create a new initrd, or copy casper's as well? | 08:08 |
| === allee [n=ach@dialin-212-144-128-023.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| superm1 | mikmorg, it doesn't copy the live root | 08:10 |
| superm1 | it only copies the unmodified version | 08:11 |
| superm1 | you can see whats copied in /rofs on a live disk | 08:11 |
| superm1 | i believe it does however generate a new initrd | 08:11 |
| superm1 | after everything is copied over | 08:11 |
| superm1 | and casper is removed | 08:11 |
| mikmorg | superm1: perfect.. | 08:12 |
| mikmorg | thanks | 08:12 |
| superm1 | mikmorg, are you looking to modify it, or adapt existing towards a live disk your making? | 08:13 |
| mikmorg | superm1: actually, I'm not sure what I can and cannot discuss at the moment. | 08:14 |
| mikmorg | superm1: sorry. | 08:14 |
| superm1 | mikmorg, pm? | 08:14 |
| superm1 | or just can't period | 08:14 |
| mikmorg | superm1: pm is..? | 08:14 |
| superm1 | private message | 08:14 |
| mikmorg | superm1: ah, no sorry.. not yet :( | 08:14 |
| superm1 | well if this is for a derivative distro, I can work with you a bit on adapting ubiquity towards it. i've been working on a fairly large patch for mythbuntu | 08:15 |
| mikmorg | superm1: Do you work at Canonical? | 08:16 |
| superm1 | mikmorg, no | 08:16 |
| superm1 | do you? | 08:16 |
| mikmorg | No, I'm working at Dell. | 08:16 |
| superm1 | ah okay | 08:16 |
| superm1 | that would make more sense as to not being sure what can and cant be discussed | 08:17 |
| mikmorg | superm1: Precisely :) | 08:17 |
| superm1 | okay well feel free to ping me with any other questions, and likely you should join #ubuntu-installer. the main installer guys, including the ones working for canonical are found there most of the time | 08:18 |
| mikmorg | superm1: Ah, they've been hiding from me in there all this time? | 08:18 |
| superm1 | hehe | 08:18 |
| mikmorg | superm1: Thanks a lot - I didn't notice that room. | 08:18 |
| mikmorg | superm1: You wouldn't happen to know if the /cdrom/casper/initrd.gz is generated inside of the same casper image as what is on the CD, would you? | 08:19 |
| superm1 | evand and cjwatson will be the two main guys to talk to in there | 08:19 |
| mikmorg | superm1: I've been discussing quite a few things with cj. | 08:19 |
| superm1 | i dont know too much about how the official process for generating that file is (i haven't seen canonical's live cd build process). For our mythbuntu disks, we have been using the same initrd.gz for /cdrom/casper/ as well as the one sitting in the root of the disk | 08:21 |
| superm1 | best way to determine for sure if you can't catch one of those guys is just md5sum the two of them | 08:21 |
| superm1 | and compare | 08:21 |
| mikmorg | superm1: Good point. I didn't notice that the one in the root of the disk ever gets called.. am I wrong about that? | 08:22 |
| mikmorg | Nevermind, | 08:22 |
| superm1 | mikmorg, i can't think of any reason it would be called, other than since its a symlink to /boot | 08:23 |
| mikmorg | I don't see one at all | 08:23 |
| superm1 | so when the system is copied over | 08:23 |
| superm1 | oh. | 08:23 |
| superm1 | :) | 08:23 |
| mikmorg | ah yes, in casper.. | 08:23 |

| mikmorg | superm1: It seems that I'm lucky | 08:33 |
| superm1 | mikmorg, why is that? | 08:33 |
| mikmorg | superm1: /cdrom/casper/initrd.gz is indeed generated by (or at least, can be) the casper FS on the CD | 08:33 |
| mikmorg | a diff -r returns clean | 08:33 |

| LaserJock | boy, I think gutsy almost ate a hard drive today | 10:40 |
| ajmitch | how? | 10:40 |
| LaserJock | I have an old computer at work that I have running gutsy, and I did my usual dist-upgrade | 10:40 |
| LaserJock | and I rebooted the other day and kinda forgot about it | 10:41 |
| LaserJock | but today I went to do something with it and noticed it was reeeealy slow | 10:41 |
| LaserJock | and I got all kinds of "not-so-nice" messages in console | 10:41 |
| LaserJock | bunches of udev stuff | 10:41 |
| ajmitch | heh | 10:41 |
| ajmitch | ah, ignore those :) | 10:41 |
| ajmitch | udev & devmapper? | 10:42 |
| LaserJock | so I googled around and found a launchpad bug | 10:42 |
| LaserJock | apparently it was driving my hard drive into the ground | 10:42 |
| ajmitch | yay | 10:42 |
| LaserJock | so I got rid of evms and it seems ok | 10:42 |
| LaserJock | but the drive is old and I got a few IO errors | 10:42 |
| LaserJock | so I made backups today :-) | 10:42 |

| Hobbsee | StevenK: if that were the problem, i would never have gotten called out of class countless times from other classes trying to make their projector work, because the students would often say "oh, go get sarah, she can fix this" | 11:07 |

| mpt | -g | 12:43 |
| mpt | Yeah, it's a bit of a catch-11 | 12:44 |
| Fujitsu | Um, catch-22? | 12:44 |
| persia | mpt: I think that as interest in each country grows, the translations naturally get better. pt is really strong, for example. | 12:44 |
| mpt | Fujitsu, no, not as bad as a catch-22, it goes only in one direction | 12:44 |
| persia | Fujitsu: No. We're all mad - but nobody is trying to leave. | 12:45 |
| Mithrandir | you could just have a simple majority vote and do some analysis based on the mean and the median (and maybe the standard deviation). | 12:45 |
| mpt | Similar to the problem of grading Wikipedia articles | 12:45 |
| Fujitsu | mpt: Ah. | 12:45 |
| Mithrandir | it wouldn't be perfect, but it should give you a reasonable number, I would think. | 12:45 |
| mpt | or grading Free Software usability | 12:45 |
| ion_ | Or the naming of free software. ;-) | 12:47 |
| ion_ | Case in point: qtpfsgui | 12:47 |
| mpt | haha | 12:47 |
| mpt | or gimp | 12:47 |
| mpt | or iceweasel | 12:47 |
| Mithrandir | ion_: it's a qt program, doing stuff with PFS and it's a gui app. I don't see what's weird with that. | 12:47 |
| persia | mpt: I like my graphical image manipulation program! | 12:47 |
| minghua | hmm, I think ubuntu's code names are worth mentioning as well | 12:48 |
| ajmitch | minghua: isn't the gutsy gibbon descriptive enough? | 12:48 |
| mpt | minghua, and the version numbers | 12:48 |
| Mithrandir | I'd rather have names be unique than descriptive. | 12:48 |
| persia | minghua: They get real version numbers at release. It's not that different than other environments. | 12:48 |
| minghua | ajmitch: yeah, very descriptive, especially translated to Chinese | 12:49 |
| mpt | http://www.google.com/search?q=intext:%22ubuntu%207.4%22 | 12:49 |
| persia | minghua: Why do we need to translate internal code names, when development is done in a single language? | 12:49 |
| Mithrandir | names such as "evolution", "tasks" or "excel" are horrible names, they are all common words which makes searching for them hard and with the exception of tasks doesn't say what the app does at all. | 12:49 |
| mpt | http://www.google.com/search?q=intext:%22ubuntu%206.1%22 | 12:49 |
| minghua | persia: I have no idea, but I see those translations on Chinese forums, some of which makes me frown | 12:50 |
| mpt | Mithrandir, that's true too, but that Microsoft gives things crappy names is not an excuse for us to do so as well :-) | 12:50 |
| Mithrandir | mpt: two of my three examples were free software projects. | 12:50 |
| === persia wonders about the adjective animal model when translated into super-concise and implication-rich chinese languages | ||

| Mithrandir | http://pimlico-project.org/tasks.html | 12:51 |
| Mithrandir | (oh, and they have "contacts", "dates" and "sync" too.) | 12:52 |
| mpt | So compounds are an easy way of generating searchable names | 12:52 |
| mpt | Firefox, OneNote, OpenOffice, Dreamweaver, Photoshop, Thunderbird | 12:52 |
| Mithrandir | half of which doesn't say what the application actually does. | 12:53 |
| persia | mpt: Yes, but how do you translate compounds into languages with no common phonetic representation? | 12:53 |
| mpt | Right, searchability is desirable but not sufficient | 12:53 |
| mpt | Photoshop and OneNote are vaguely reminiscent, the others of those are not | 12:53 |
| Mithrandir | firefox? That's an animal. OneNote? Note-taking program? Word processor? Bibliography manager? Dreamweaver? Uh, program for controlling weaving machines? Animation package? Thunderbird? Just a mythical animal. | 12:54 |
| mpt | exactly | 12:54 |
| minghua | persia: actually when it comes to animals, Chinese is far less concise than English | 12:54 |
| Mithrandir | openoffice.org isn't all bad, since people know what an office program is (even if the term is incorrect). | 12:55 |
| === persia goes to look at a Mandarin dictionary | ||
| minghua | I don't know how often English speaking people use "gibbon" in daily conversations, but I think most Chinese just call them "monkeys" | 12:56 |
| mpt | persia, by "no common phonetic representation" do you mean no equivalent of hiragana/katakana? | 12:56 |
| minghua | we do have a term for zoologists, but I doubt everyone knows it | 12:56 |
| minghua | so firefox is a real animal? | 12:57 |
| persia | mpt: Or, more generally no phonetic alphabet (Roman, Hangul, kana, Arabic, etc. are all fine). I've most frequently seen this issue with Chinese environments. | 12:57 |

| Fujitsu | minghua: I've not heard of it. | 12:59 |
| persia | mpt: Specifically, if it can be pronounced, but has no meaning, it's easy to substitute some characters to make a similar sound (and it's obviously a foreign word), if it is a compond, there may be a tendency to translate the meaning of the individual sections, rather than the sound, which can be confusing. | 12:59 |
| mpt | persia, dunno. How did Google China end up as Gu Ge? | 12:59 |
| minghua | persia: I don't quite understand your comment about Chinese and compounds | 12:59 |
| minghua | mpt: Alas, that was a interesting story | 12:59 |
| persia | mpt: Phonetic similarity to a nonsense word (obviously foreign). | 12:59 |
| minghua | Fujitsu: you haven't heard of "council greyskull" either, you don't count. :-P | 01:00 |
| mpt | Maybe the answer to translating things like that is "don't" | 01:00 |
| persia | minghua: My IME is not working today, but essentially the difference between (fi)(re)(fo)(ksi) and (fire)(fox). | 01:00 |
| mpt | Even though Ubuntu has a meaning, I wouldn't expect that to be translated | 01:00 |
| mpt | Same for other brand names | 01:00 |
| persia | mpt: Use Roman characters then? | 01:01 |
| minghua | persia: Oh I see. That's fine, as we can do phonetic translations (as mpt just pointed out, google -> gu ge), but it's not as common as in Japanese | 01:01 |
| mpt | persia, I don't know. | 01:01 |
| === mpt compares with http://www.apple.com/jp/macosx/leopard/ | ||
| persia | minghua: That's because you don't have kana :) Anyway, I'm thinking about translator confusion, rather than anything else. | 01:02 |
| minghua | in the case of firefox, we translate literally as fire (huo) + fox(hu) | 01:02 |
| persia | minghua: Right. That's an example of something that makes componds dangerous. As pointed out before, DreamWeaver would be a good name for an automated loom control system. | 01:03 |
| minghua | yes, I agree, a lot of compounds translate to quite hilarious words in Chinese | 01:03 |
| persia | I like either mpt's idea of not translating, or documenting that translators should use phonetic equivalents when translating names. | 01:04 |
| mpt | and http://www.microsoft.com/japan/windows/products/windowsvista/default.mspx | 01:04 |
| === mpytasz [n=dduck@staticline17096.toya.net.pl] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| minghua | take our google example, before they decide on a Chinese name themselves, it is affectionately called "ancient dog" due to phonetic similarity | 01:04 |
| === luisbg [n=d33p@94.144.217.87.dynamic.jazztel.es] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| minghua | google is not exactly compounds, but that's on top of my head | 01:05 |
| === cjwatson [n=cjwatson@82-69-40-219.dsl.in-addr.zen.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| persia | mpt: Japanese is a poor example, as most Japanese are familiar with three phonetic systems. | 01:05 |
| mpt | So ideally their new name should have been a translation of "new tricks" :-P | 01:05 |
| persia | Mixing is very common, and not mixing is considered poor use of the language. | 01:06 |
| mpt | persia, you mean most of them know Romaji? | 01:06 |
| persia | mpt: Standard Education requires 10 years of English. | 01:06 |
| minghua | persia: why three? | 01:07 |
| mpt | ok, http://www.microsoft.com/china/windows/default.mspx | 01:07 |
| mpt | same thing | 01:07 |
| minghua | windows is a bad example, you just can't translate it, too confusing | 01:08 |
| persia | minghua: hiragana for native words, katakana for borrowed words or emphasis (often used like italics), and Romaji for style (often used for foreign words (not always correctly), proper names, or for even more emphasis). | 01:08 |
| minghua | office is another bad example | 01:08 |
| mpt | and http://www.apple.com.cn/macosx/leopard/index.html | 01:08 |
| mpt | There are leopards in China, right? :-) | 01:09 |
| persia | There's at least | 01:09 |
| minghua | persia: oh, I see. I mistakenly thought "three pronunciation systems". | 01:09 |
| minghua | probably not | 01:10 |
| minghua | leopards are translated "American ", I think | 01:10 |
| minghua | let me check on wikipedia | 01:10 |
| mpt | minghua, is it *more* confusing in Chinese than it is in English? | 01:10 |
| persia | That's more Roman characters than I usually see on Chinese pages. | 01:11 |
| mpt | ("We run a Microsoft office" vs. "We run Microsoft Office") | 01:11 |
| minghua | mpt: I don't know, I use Chinese and English in too different occasions | 01:11 |
| persia | minghua: I think that's panther. | 01:11 |
| persia | mpt: Where is "We run a Microsoft office"? Is that a machine translation? | 01:12 |
| minghua | persia: It seems either of us is right. leopard is indeed the Asian one, jaguar is the American one. | 01:12 |
| minghua | neither* | 01:12 |
| persia | Hmmm. I liked either better :) | 01:13 |
| mpt | persia, in English the phrase "Microsoft shop" is far more common to refer to an office or department that uses Microsoft software exclusively or nearly exclusively | 01:13 |
| mpt | even when they're not shops | 01:13 |
| persia | minghua: Still, it's " ", no? | 01:13 |
| mpt | and that *might* be because of the existence of Microsoft Office making "office" confusing, but there's no real way to tell now. | 01:13 |
| persia | mpt: That's just jargon. | 01:13 |
| minghua | persia: I suppose so, although I doubt there are many leopards left in China, as we don't talk much about it. | 01:14 |
| mpt | We should resolve this by using numbers for product names *as well as* for versions | 01:14 |
| persia | minghua: Probably not :) Maybe in the far northwest (unless that's too dry for them). | 01:14 |
| minghua | persia: In Chinese culture tiger is the typical big, wild and carnival animal. | 01:14 |
