pittimathiaz: I've seen it before, and it makes sense to me at least12:13
pittimathiaz: I'll sync it right now then, just in case12:13
Riddellpitti: is the pkgmaintainermangler error fixed?12:14
pittiRiddell: yep12:14
pittiRiddell: I gave back and rebuilt the important stuff for CDs12:14
mjg59seb128: There's something up with epiphany. When I close a tab, it doesn't kill the running plugins12:14
pittibut there is certainly some fallout from this12:14
mjg59Firefox is fine12:14
Riddellpitti: could you give back adept too (for fixed --dist-upgrade)12:14
dendrobatespitti: I don't want to hold up tribe 4 for it.12:14
seb128mjg59: bug #12520912:15
ubotuLaunchpad bug 125209 in epiphany-browser "Flash video in Epiphany doesn't die when browser is closed" [Low,Confirmed]  https://launchpad.net/bugs/12520912:15
pittiRiddell: done12:15
Riddellthanks12:15
mjg59seb128: Ah, thanks12:15
pittidendrobates: depends on how serious this is deemed12:15
mjg59seb128: It is indeed the favicon-fallback plugin12:16
mathiazpitti: I don't thinks it's such a serious bug.12:16
pittiok12:16
dendrobatespitti: it is an embarrassment, to say the least.12:16
mathiazpitti: it doesn't break apache.12:16
mathiazdendrobates, pitti: yes. it's just annoying.12:17
pittihttps://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-archive/+subscribedbugs?field.searchtext=sync12:17
pitti-> I don't see a sync request for apache2 here12:17
mathiazdendrobates, pitti: and I can be disturbing for enduser.12:17
pitti"LaMP"?12:18
mathiazpitti: bug 13111812:19
ubotuLaunchpad bug 131118 in apache2 "Sync apache2 from debian unstable (2.2.4-3)" [Undecided,New]  https://launchpad.net/bugs/13111812:19
mathiazpitti: I've subscribed ubuntu-main-sponsor.12:19
pittimathiaz: ah, good12:19
pittimathiaz: "No Ubuntu changes" -> no relevant ones any more12:20
pittimathiaz: synced and closed12:20
dendrobatesmathiaz: mdz wants a custom page to load anyway.  We need to get someone to write some php.12:20
cjwatsonpitti: back now. I can have a look at oem-config nowish if I still have time ...12:20
mathiazdendrobates: hum... Is php installed by default ?12:20
cjwatsonpitti: I didn't fix rescue mode, and I didn't realise anyone else had ...12:20
pittidendrobates: so if you want, I'll speed up the building and build new server ISOs12:20
pitticjwatson: wb12:21
mathiazdendrobates: it's not that easy anyway...12:21
cjwatsonbdmurray: pong12:21
dendrobatespitti: I think that would be best.12:21
pitticjwatson: indeed I need to rebuild ubuntu ISOs anyway for the oversizedness12:21
mathiazdendrobates: there has been a lot of debate over the default apache web page.12:21
pitticjwatson: so, fixing those is highly appreciated (either disabling OEM, or even better, actually make it boot)12:21
pitticjwatson: does Kubuntu/edubuntu/xubuntu also have that OEM mode?12:21
ajmitchdendrobates: what sort of thing does he want on the php page?12:21
cjwatsonmikmor2: a few directories are bind-mounted at various points - /cdrom, /proc, /dev, maybe /rofs12:21
Riddellkubuntu does have oem12:22
cjwatsonkubuntu is certainly supposed to12:22
mathiazdendrobates: there is a bug in the debian tracker about it.12:22
pittiRiddell: do you want live CDs rebuilt for that?12:22
dendrobatesajmitch: I don't know, for sure.12:22
Riddellpitti: yeah, may as well12:22
cjwatsonpitti: everything but edubuntu and server has oem-config12:22
mathiazdendrobates, ajmitch: it depends what the target is.12:22
pitticjwatson: ok, then we at least don't waste the current edubuntu build12:22
ajmitchmathiaz: I'm assuming this is only for the LAMP setup?12:23
bdmurraycjwatson: I thought I heard you mention a design decision as to why "vga=" isn't used with grub.  Is that right?12:23
cjwatsonpitti: just rsyncing desktop now12:23
dendrobatesmathiaz: It is on the server tasks page, and mdz asked the status.12:23
mathiazajmitch: well... I don't know exactly what mdz has in mind.12:23
cjwatsonbdmurray: vga= isn't used because that makes vesafb be used which makes suspend/resume a very sad panda12:23
mathiazdendrobates: ah ok...12:23
stgraberpitti, cjwatson: ok, I'll add for Kubuntu as well, what about Xubuntu ?12:23
cjwatsonstgraber: Xubuntu has OEM mode, though I'm not sure anyone cares ...12:24
mathiazdendrobates, ajmitch: there has been a lot of debate about what should be put in the default index page.12:24
pittistgraber: I don't think that it's worth the trouble for T4 TBH12:24
cjwatsonas in, haven't heard of any OEMs shipping it. it'll just be the same as Ubuntu's anyway12:24
ajmitchserver tasks is assigned to soren, right?12:24
dendrobatesmathiaz: we can discuss it in the next server meeting.12:24
mathiazdendrobates, ajmitch: be it for the LAMP install or the default install.12:24
ajmitchmathiaz: I imagine there would be :)12:24
cjwatsonbdmurray: IIRC because vesafb doesn't know how to reprogram the card's registers on resume12:24
stgraberpitti: ok, so we'll have it for Ubuntu and Kubuntu now, I can still add others later12:25
mathiazdendrobates, ajmitch: every know and then there is a end user that shows up and claims that apache/debian/ubuntu has hacked its server12:25
pittimathiaz: lol12:25
ajmitchmathiaz: they make for funny stories online, but yes, I understand the problem12:25
mathiazdendrobates, ajmitch: because their ISP/web hosting has messed up the configuration of the httpd server.12:25
ajmitchpitti: look up the one about centos12:26
bdmurraycjwatson: hmm, does that pertain to bug 129910 at all?12:26
ubotuLaunchpad bug 129910 in Ubuntu "tty[1-6]  are active but display nothing in Gutsy" [Undecided,New]  https://launchpad.net/bugs/12991012:26
dendrobatesmathias ajmitch:  I know :) but we can't design to the lowest common denominator.12:26
mathiazajmitch: yeah - that was the last one... last year I think.12:26
cjwatsonbdmurray: yes, it's entirely possible that removing vga= will fix it12:26
dendrobatespitti: How long will the rebuild take?12:27
cjwatsonbdmurray: it's rather odd that they have locale=es_ES in their boot options12:27
dendrobatespitti: of the iso?12:27
cjwatsonthat's supposed to be filtered out12:27
pittidendrobates: apache2 doesn't take that long, but the publishing will12:27
cjwatson... oh, bugger12:28
pittidendrobates: all in all, two hours maybe12:28
cjwatsonthat's definitely a bug, I think ubiquity needs to ship /etc/preseed.aliases12:28
bdmurraycjwatson: right, they admit as much so I was wondering if it was dismissable12:28
dendrobatesmathiaz: we need to retest either tonight or tomorrow morning.  I need to get my sparc setup anyway.12:28
mathiazpitti: ok. So we'll have to start over to cd testing.12:29
cjwatsonbdmurray: we started filtering out vga= from the options set on the installed system in the dapper installer12:29
mathiazpitti: when will you release tribe-4 ?12:29
cjwatsonbdmurray: so an upgrade from before then could still have it12:29
cjwatsonbdmurray: it seems like a valid kernel bug though12:29
pittimathiaz: tomorrow afternoon (before meeting) if all goes well12:29
mathiazdendrobates: I'm not sure if we'll have time tomorrow morning.12:29
mathiazdendrobates: morning for us.12:29
cjwatsonbdmurray: vga= is one of the more common options people fiddle with, even if it does break suspend/resume (and of course lots of people don't care about that)12:30
cjwatson"I want higher resolution on my virtual terminals" is actually a fairly common thing to want if you live at VTs12:30
dendrobatesmathiaz: I can get started pretty early.  We'll do the best we can.12:30
mjg59cjwatson: Ben made vesafb a builtin. I suspect this may have broken something in the framebuffer startup script - I'm waiting for him to fix it before looking into it too closely12:31
cjwatsonmjg59: builtin? interesting12:31
cjwatsonbdmurray: please reassign to the kernel for now12:31
mathiazdendrobates: ok. I'll test the i386 iso later today then.12:31
bdmurraycjwatson: okay, thanks for all of the information12:31
dendrobatesmathiaz: I have to help feed and put babies to bed.  I'll be back in a few hours to do the amd64 tests.12:31

pittiogra, LaserJock, stgraber: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/daily-live/20070808/ (far from being oversized)12:33
LaserJocksaw it12:33
LaserJockpitti: what the? I wonder what happened, we dropped es, xh, fr, de lang packs and amd64 dropped 55MB12:35
cjwatsonoh!12:35
=== cjwatson sees why desktop oem might be bust
cjwatsonI, er, kind of forgot boot=casper12:35
pittiLaserJock: no idea12:36
LaserJockpitti: hmm, well at least they're under :-)12:36
stgraberogra: want something specifc to be tested on Edubuntu server ?12:37
stgraberpitti: "panel encountered a problem with loading "OAFIID:GNOME_FastUserSwitchAplet"" known issue ?12:38
pittistgraber: no, that worked for me12:38
stgraberpitti: just got that at first session open time on edu server12:39
cjwatsonpitti: oem> if you F6 it and add boot=casper and splash before --, it should get further12:41
stgraberogra, pitti: no fast-user-switching-applet installed on Edubuntu12:41
seb128stgraber, pitti: that's because the applet has been added to the panel and is not installed12:41
stgraberogra, pitti: but enabled on gnome default session, so we have that error12:41
seb128fast-user-switching-applet should be installed on edubuntu12:42
pittidarn12:42
pittiseb128: does it really make sense there? last time you said no12:42
pittiand on a thin client that sounds reasonable12:42
cjwatsonmikmor2: I just reread; during target-config, I don't think you have any shared directories. Any particular reason for asking?12:42
LaserJockI don't think it's in the seeds12:42
pittiLaserJock: no, it's not12:43
seb128pitti: I didn't think about the panel profile when replying some days ago12:43
seb128I think it would be easier to add it to edubuntu and to make the applet exit if the config is a ltsp one12:43
cjwatsonevand: do you think it would make sense to disable migration-assistant in ubiquity's oem mode?12:44
cjwatsonI can't imagine an OEM wanting it ...12:44

pitticjwatson: thanks12:45
cjwatsonpitti: I'm testing it now to see if I can save time12:45
alex-weejbut i foolishly changed the grub installation device from (hd0) to (hd3) thinking that it corresponded to kernel sdd12:45
alex-weejso ubiquity crashed12:46
alex-weejor rather gave up with a "fatal error" installing grub12:46
seb128pitti: no, it'll display an error if it can't load it12:46
cjwatsonit's a known ubiquity bug that it doesn't validate that against grub's device.map12:46
pitticjwatson: sorry, can't test right now, I have two installs running already12:46
cjwatsonpitti: not a problem, I'm doing it12:46
alex-weejcjwatson: how can i get this installed? grub setup refuses to accept (hd0) anyway12:46
pittimy hd sounds like a sawmill12:46
LaserJockheh12:46
alex-weejpitti: record it and make some techno12:47
cjwatsonalex-weej: have a peek in /target/boot/grub/device.map to see what grub thinks the mapping is12:47
alex-weejcjwatson: /target was unmounted12:47

cjwatsondo so12:48
cjwatsonthere won't be a /boot/grub/device.map in the live session12:48
cjwatsonso grub is unlikely to have device mappings there12:49
cjwatsonat least, they might differ12:49
alex-weejnow grub doesn't know any devices in the chrooted env12:49

cjwatsonno, sorry12:51
alex-weejaaaaah12:51
alex-weejlol12:51
alex-weejok just to check for sure12:51
cjwatsonwe do need to add that validation rather urgently12:51

alex-weejreask for sure12:51
cjwatsonvalidation's tricky 'cos we don't have a device.map earlier on12:51
cjwatson(I hate grub. Part #47 in a series of #939)12:52
alex-weejit's not the first time i've been caught by this. one of my less technical but technical-enough-to-think-he-knows-what-he's-doing friends had a multidisk setup that ubiquity crapped out on12:52
cjwatsonsame thing, or something else?12:52
pittimathiaz: I invalidated the server CDs now12:52
alex-weejcjwatson: same thing but not with an external disk12:52
pittimathiaz: (in the tracker)12:52
alex-weejso just to check, i'm installing to sdd, what device string should i give ubiquity to use for grub?12:53
alex-weejit's defaulting to (hd0)12:53
mathiazpitti: ok. I'll wait for the new isos and redo all the test then.12:53
cjwatsonalex-weej: you can give it /dev/sdd, you know ....12:54
stgraberpitti: About edubuntu, are you going the ISOs with a fix soon or shall I continue testing those ones ? (fix being adding fusa to the seed or find a way to make gnome not load it)12:54

alex-weejcjwatson: sure there's no sneaky way to get it to skip the file copying? :/12:55
pittistgraber: 'make gnome not load it' is out of question for T4, I'm afraid; seeding would be ok, but it needs to go to -desktop (so it takes more like three hours to get new CDs)12:56
stgraberpitti: the Desktop one being probably affected as well, it'll be the first thing a Tribe-4 users will see on the live environment12:56
alex-weejwhen is Tribe 4 due?12:56
pittistgraber: oh, right, servers, too?12:56
cjwatsonalex-weej: nope, sorry12:56
stgraberpitti: I'm on the server one currently12:56
alex-weejcjwatson: ok, i'll watch some Big Brother Live12:56

pittistgraber: please file it, but it's too late to fix for Tribe 401:02
stgraberogra: it's the usual init.d script which segfaults (when it shouldn't even be run as we are using inetd ...)01:02
stgraberpitti: it must already have been filed as we had it with Tribe-3 :)01:02
pittistgraber: hm, it wasn't a milestoned bug01:03

cjwatsonmm, maybe01:16
cjwatsonstill a bit raw, not setting up the oem user correctly01:17

pittiLaserJock: about 90 minutes until live is ready, 60 for server01:35
pittiLaserJock: oh, add 15 minutes, current publisher isn't finished yet01:35
LaserJockpitti: hmm, I wondered it it'd be worth it to add back in at least one or two lang packs01:35
stgraberpitti: but ldm didn't reload after logout (so black screen after logout) ...01:36
LaserJockbut maybe it's just as well to leave that until after Tribe 401:36
LaserJockI don't want to waste a build run on miscalculating lang packs01:36
pittiLaserJock: can do01:37
pittiLaserJock: I have my script here, and I'll be cautious; which langs are the most important for you?01:37
LaserJockwell, we had es de fr xh01:37
LaserJockon amd6401:38
LaserJockI want to say es and fr, but maybe if I leave out de ogra'll be mad at me ;-)01:39
Kmosand pt ?01:39
Kmosit's one of the most talked in the world01:40
stgraberpitti: ok, found the actual bug with ldm, it doesn't disconnect from SSH on session logout, so it doesn't reload and I'm stuck on a nice black screen :)01:41
LaserJockpitti: if you can do es de fr on amd64 I think that should be good, I'm not sure how much the fast-user-switch stuff will take but I figure it should work out01:42
pittiLaserJock: I leave the server CDs alone; i386 is full, and amd64 not that important for tribe, I figure01:42
stgraberpitti: killing ssh by hand seems to be the fix01:42
pittiLaserJock: dependencies look like you already have everything01:43
pittiLaserJock: and it adds 600 kB01:43

Riddellpitti: what's broken about it currently?01:56
pittiRiddell: just the OEM gfxboot thing01:56
cjwatsonajmitch: xh is an anomaly because Canonical paid for the translation ages ago, but since it's so out of date the language pack size is tiny and it hardly matters01:56

cjwatson(and /var/log/installer/syslog from the latter)03:40

lamont`pitti: I even have that05:04
lamont`pitti: whatever version >= 1:1.0.0-7 will prevent you and fabbione from hurting me05:05
lamont`er, -805:06
fabbionelamont`: if it's only because of portmap, i won't hurt you too badly :)05:06
lamont`fabbione: nfs mounting was dropped by upstream util-linux...  nfs-utils now delivers mount.nfs05:06
fabbioneoh i see05:07
fabbionewell i will put the package on hold05:07
lamont`and mount doesn't depend: nfs-utils since 99% of the world doesn't care about nfs, and grandma will never figure out how to remove portmapper later.05:07
fabbioneyeah i know i am that 1% special05:08
fabbionethat makes me feel so gooood05:08
lamont`preinst has logic that says: if nfs-common (any  version) is installed, and proc is mounted and there are nfs mounts in /proc/mounts, and /sbin/mount.nfs doesn't exist, then bitch and die05:08
fabbionegotcha05:08
lamont`the further justification is that it is reasonable to expect that anyone running nfs has sufficient clue to deal with "upgrade nfs-common first, or die" error message.05:08

Skiessiwhy gutsy has still SDL 1.2.11? why not 1.2.12?05:54
cjwatsonDebian hasn't packaged 1.2.12 yet, so we probably simply didn't notice05:54
keescookSkiessi: looks like debian hasn't packaged 1.2.12 yet: http://packages.qa.debian.org/libs/libsdl1.2.html05:54
cjwatsonwhat is interesting in 1.2.12?05:54
pittiScottK: I have some ideas about that, liek providing an 'debug this right here' know if apport-retrace and the ddeb repo are available, and such05:55
cjwatson(i.e. why should we take the extra effort to work in advance of Debian in this case?)05:55
Skiessithey have fixed some things in mouse support and my cursor has got stuck after quitting some sdl games05:55
ScottKpitti: I think that would be even better.  That way LP doesn't get cluttered.05:56

mathiazkeescook: So what's the plan to update apparmor kernel module ?05:57
keescookpitti: I looked at the apparmor profile for CUPS.  why the need for shadow?  Seems like the 'authentication' abstraction would be useful there?05:57
keescookmathiaz: it's up to the kernel team05:57
mathiazkeescook: I've updated the userspace part, but cannot test it as it needs the latest version.05:57
keescookmathiaz: we're waiting for them to take the patches05:57
keescookwe discussed that it would be after t405:57
mathiazkeescook: Have you sent the patch ?05:57

=== Yagisan regrets buying such a new unsupported nvidia adapter :(
kylemdid you send it to me?05:59
pittikeescook: yeah, probably; it uses <shadow.h> and getspnam() etc05:59
tkamppeterpitti, another important thing where I am in favour of s-c-p are the bugs of g-c-m.05:59
keescookkylem: I thought you said you had the 10_3 branch from suse?05:59
pittitkamppeter: I agree05:59

=== jsgotangco [n=JSG@ubuntu/member/jsgotangco] has joined #ubuntu-devel
shirishpitti: could it be? How do I know that?06:01
tkamppeterpitti, g-c-m was not maintained upstream, so no one worked on the bugs. s-c-p is maintained very actively, and used on the most widespread distro, so bugs get fixed there.06:01
pittikeescook: I'm happy to use the auth abstraction, though06:01
keescookpitti: okay, I may tweak this a bit.  I think we should likely add an "avahi-client" abstraction too06:02
pittikeescook: cupsd checks users and passwords (lpadmin members) on the web interface06:02
pittitkamppeter: would you have some time for some easy UI tweaks? like we discussed some days ago?06:02
tkamppeterpitti, a tool full of bugs is less user-friendly than a tool which asks perhaps a question too much.06:03
pittitkamppeter: I'm also leaning towards using s-c-p, if we can make it a bit easier, it'll be great06:03
pittitkamppeter: *nod*06:03
tkamppeterpitti, I have also forwarded your UI suggestions to Tim Waugh, perhaps he will also do something on them.06:04
pittikeescook: btw, how evil it is to do "/usr/lib/** mr,"?06:04
pittikeescook: I guess that pretty much circumvents the ixr limitations on /usr/bin/, right?06:04
pittikeescook: I put that in to get a profile ready at that day, but I guess it should be tighter06:04
pittitkamppeter: yay, thanks06:04
=== shirish [n=shirish@59.95.31.55] has left #ubuntu-devel ["Leaving."]
mathiazpitti: it should be included with the base abstraction.06:06
pittimathiaz: no, that only has /usr/lib/**  are06:06
pittimathiaz: oh, sorry, /usr/lib/*.so*                 mr, too06:07
pitti'are'? I didn't type that, that was 'r'06:07

=== alex-weej [n=alex@cpc2-darl3-0-0-cust237.midd.cable.ntl.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel
pittimathiaz: what I meant is, if you allow loading and using *all* libraries, then it does not make sense to restrict execution privs to /usr/bin/, or does it?06:09
pittimathiaz: since in all those libraries there's certainly some code you could abuse06:09
=== jwendell [n=wendell@ubuntu/member/wendell] has joined #ubuntu-devel
pittimathiaz: hm, no idea why I added "/usr/lib/** mr" explicitly; I used it with the profile builder and it barked on me06:09
pittimathiaz: I'll fine-tune that, I guess06:10
mathiazpitti: there is also /lib/** rm06:10
mathiazpitti: there is /lib/lib*.so*                  mr06:10
mathiazpitti: in the base abstractions06:10
alex-weejcjwatson: it almost worked. except that if i attempt to boot from the external disk, grub can't bootstrap because it doesn't recognise the file system (Error 17). if i boot from my working grub and use a shell, it shows the filesystem as unknown. the file system is definitely ext3 and i can mount it here fine.06:11
cjwatsonalex-weej: sorry, I can't help, but I hope somebody else can06:12
alex-weejok thanks06:12
alex-weeji will put it on launchpad06:13
alex-weejdoes anyone know where the installer logs go?06:13
cjwatson/var/log/installer/06:13
cjwatsonpitti: thanks for the vmware monitor size tip, btw06:15
pitticjwatson: heh, I was annoyed by it and I just happened to discover that it's configurable, no problem :)06:15
cjwatsonRiddell: turns out the failure to do a CD check is directly due to there being no suitable usplash theme06:16
cjwatsonI managed to strace it, and it does open("/dev/.initramfs/usplash_fifo") => ENXIO and bails out there06:16
keescookpitti: /usr/lib/** mr, seems pretty open, but probably not hugely harmful.  an attacker already can read /etc/shadow, for example06:17
cjwatsonmight be able to make it fall back to text-only06:17

pittikeescook: but /usr/lib/** has certainly a lot of code to exploit/use06:20

mjg59jamiemcc: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/33161/08:09
mjg59That's a snippet - imagine hugely more than that08:09
jamiemccok08:09
jamiemccshould not take a minute to do that08:10
jamiemcca few secs is more normal08:10
mjg59Took 308:10
jamiemcc3 minutes?08:10
mjg59Yes08:10
jamiemcchow big were the files?08:10
mjg59All the time taken was writing to the database, not reading the files08:10
jamiemccwe have fsync off so the disk scheduler should optimise that08:11
jamiemccI bet kernel is not doing that08:11
mjg59You're repeatedly seeking and reading08:11
mjg59There's little the kernel can do to optimise that other than readahead08:11
jamiemccthe wrotes should be buffered08:12
mjg59Right, but the reading clearly can't be08:12
mjg59And it's doing as many reads as it is writes08:12
jamiemccif thwe writes are not buffered it will really slow things down08:13
jamiemccthe seeks are all close together on disk so should be fast08:13
jamiemccif buffered the writes will be applied long after the seeks08:14
mjg59If you're making several thousand small reads, it's going to be slow08:15
highvoltagewhat's the status of Gobuntu? is there any value in testing the current builds?08:15
highvoltage(or tribe 4, at least)08:15
jamiemccmjg59: no more than a few secs08:15
jamiemccalternate read/write is painfully slow08:15
mjg59jamiemcc: Hang on, I'll try to instrument this08:15
highvoltage(oops, I see there's just daily builds currently)08:15
mjg59jamiemcc: Remember that with a small read followed by another small read, you're having to wait for the disk to spin round to the right place again08:16
jamiemccmjg59: can you graph disk reads/writes and see when they are applied?08:16
jamiemccmjg59: we dont control reads - sqlite does that08:16
mjg59So on a 4800RPM disk, you're looking at only being able to make 4800 small reads a minute08:16
mjg59(worst case)08:16
jamiemcc10 ms access time is average08:17
jamiemccfor reads close together buffer will cover some of them08:17
jamiemccand head has less distance to cover08:17
mjg5910ms is only 6000 reads a minute08:17
jamiemccthats worst case08:18
jamiemccif they are close together average seek will be smaller08:18
mjg59Whether any of it gets buffered depends on whether the reads are close to each other08:18
jamiemccyes08:18
mjg59It's not seek time that's the killer here. It's rotational latency08:18
jamiemccok08:18
jamiemccbut not sure what I can do about it?08:18
jamiemccall i can say is its fast if the writes are buffered properly08:18
mjg59Let me just get an idea about how many reads are being made08:18

rulusjamiemcc: I mailed you a Dutch translation for Tracker yesterday, did you receive the message?08:21
jamiemccrulus: yes - I will apply soon thx08:22
rulusok, thanks :)08:22
rulusit's not 100% complete, but it's a good start08:22
jamiemccok sorry for the delay applying - just be swamped with bugs atm08:23
rulusno problem08:23
mjg59jamiemcc: Ok, I'm benchmarking the creation of 399 files totalling 5.9M08:26
mjg59It's taken 3 minutes so far08:26
jamiemccthat sux08:26
jamiemccare they text files?08:27
mjg59C files08:28
jamiemccok that should take less than 10 secs08:28
mjg59With a binary pack file08:28
mjg59So a single 2.8M binary08:28
mjg59Still running, so 6 minutes so far08:29
Skiessicould someone add tabbing to Nautilus? before or after gutsy08:29
jamiemccmjg59: are other disk intensive processes slow?08:29
mjg59No08:29
mjg59Well, to the extent that this is a 1.8" hard drive, yes08:30
jamiemccI mean ones that read/write a lot08:30
mjg59But otherwise, no - no slower than with older kernels08:30
jamiemccare you in swap?08:30
mjg59There is swap in use, but I have plenty of free memory08:30
jamiemccok08:30
mjg59So running stuff isn't swapping08:31
jamiemccext3 ordered mode?08:31
mjg59All default mount options08:31
jamiemccok08:31
mjg59[    5.672000]  EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode.08:31
mjg59jamiemcc: To be fair to it, strace is taking up plenty of CPU, so it's not an entirely fair test08:32
mjg59But I want to see the syscall counts08:32

stgrabermathiaz: this will be easily possible once the qa.stgraber.org (maybe qa.ubuntu.com by this time) will be working and we'll be able to create sub-domain11:06
stgrabermathiaz: but I'm still starting implementing it (kernel and mozilla team being the testers), the details should be discussed at next UDS11:07
stgrabermathiaz: so, nothing now :(11:08
mathiazstgraber: ok. Do you think we can add test case per hardware type ?11:10
mathiazstgraber: for example 'dell poweredge 850'11:10
stgraberinside the ISO tracker nope, but in the future you will be able to request a server.qa.stgraber.org website and there it'll be possible11:11
stgraberyou'll set Gutsy+1 BETA or whatever the CD is as milestone11:12
stgraberthen add your Hardware where you currently see the different ISOs11:12
stgraberthen add you testcase on them11:12
mathiazstgraber: hum... I see. I'm trying to come up with a solution that would be usable now.11:12
mathiazstgraber: we have the checkCD test case, the LAMP test case.11:13
mathiazstgraber: is it possible to add a "DellPoweredge" test case ?11:13
stgrabermathiaz: yes11:13
mathiazstgraber: ok. And can I do this ?11:14
mathiazstgraber: or should I contact you ?11:14
stgraberbut everyone will see it (both server team and classical contributor) and some people may wonder what the hell is that when doing testing on server iso :)11:14
stgrabermathiaz: testcase management is still something I'm the only one who can do that (have to put that directly in the DB), there is still no UI for that (yet)11:15

mathiazstgraber: but that won't happen before sometime.11:20
stgraberWell, Mozilla team will have some kind of beta working for next Firefox update, but that'll still look like the ISO tracker (lot of ISO specifc things)11:21
stgraberWhat the spec for Gutsy+1 will mainly add is usage specifc modules and user profile options (btw, I'll add the server team as being interested in the new QA tracker in the Spec)11:22
mathiazstgraber: please do. We're interested that too.11:22
stgrabermathiaz: as you don't really need much "server testing" specific thing, I'll add you to the "beta test" which could soon be ready (that's just a matter or fixing some Admin UI, user UI is already ready)11:25

manchickenDoes anybody know whether or not the Ubuntu Dells (running 7.04) are running OEM with Beryl and/or compiz?11:47
Amaranthmanchicken: doubtful11:47
manchickenI asked Dell, and Dell told me that they're running Ubuntu.11:47
manchickenheh11:47
Amaranthafaik they use stock 7.0411:48
manchickenI would think so, too.11:48
manchickenAmaranth: Long time no talk.  You're the guy from UDS, right?11:48
Amaranthyep11:49
manchickenThought so :)11:49
Amaranthmanchicken: do you know if it's a boy or girl yet?11:49
manchickenNot yet.11:49
manchickenWe'll know in one week.11:49
AmaranthGot pretty worried about you that last night11:49
manchickenYeah.11:49
manchickenIt was not a pretty trip home.11:50
LaserJockoh?11:50
manchickenGot well home and got much better real quick.11:50
LaserJockyou get sick?11:50
AmaranthI was thinking exhaustion11:50
manchickenYeah, evidently if you get foreign bacterial infections, drinking beer is not a good idea.11:50
manchickenAmaranth: Dehydration.11:50
AmaranthOh, even better :/11:50
LaserJockI got really sick at the end of UDS Paris11:50
manchickenAmaranth: I got a nasty water-borne bacterial infection.11:50
LaserJocktook me at least 2-3weeks to get better11:51
Amaranthmanchicken: That explains it, you're not supposed to drink the local water11:51
LaserJockbut UDS Sevilla was good for me (other than not a lot of sleep)11:51
manchickenI didn't.11:51
=== Amaranth only drank Coca-Cola :)
manchickenI think I got it from the shower.11:51
AmaranthCould be11:51
cjwatsonI think my illness at UDS-Sevilla was probably caffeine withdrawal11:51
cjwatsonthough it was a bit much for that, might have been a bug too11:52
manchickenWhat's scary is I was drinking about 2-3 liters of water a day.11:52
AmaranthThat hotel worker thought you were wasted11:52
manchickenThese Dells have the intel GPUs, but still run Intel wifi cards.11:52
manchickenDude, totally.11:52
manchickenThe security guy was about to arrest me until that Beryl guy's mom stopped in.11:53
Amarantherr, intel GPU + intel wireless is common11:53
manchickenstepped*11:53
manchickenYeah, unfortunately the intel wifi is binary-blobish.11:53
Amaranthmanchicken: Oh, I thought you were out when that happened :)11:53
Amaranthmanchicken: iwlwifi11:53
Amaranthonly needs firmware11:53
manchickenI was coming to when that happened.11:53
manchickenI wasn't out for long.11:54
Riddellinfinity: could you give back strigi11:54
manchickenLet that be a lesson.  Carry a thermometer with you when you travel, and take it easy when you're sick.11:54
NafalloAmaranth: isn't there some binary application as well?11:54
manchickenthat is, if homeland security will let you onto an airplane with a thermometer.11:54
=== Nafallo haven't ran restricted anywhere in quite a while, so doesn't know :-)
manchickenAmaranth: Yeah, and that firmware is binary-blob.11:55
mjg59Nafallo: Not for 496511:55
mjg59Yes for 394511:55
manchickenAnd the dells come with 394511:55
Amaranthmjg59: iwl3945 requires a daemon?11:55
Nafallomjg59: thanks. I thought I remembered something about it :-)11:55
Amaranthmjg59: I thought only ipw3945 did11:55
Nafallomanchicken: the Dells often let you choose, no?11:55
mjg59Amaranth: iwlwifi is not currently usable for 394511:55
manchickenNafallo: No11:56
Amaranthmjg59: I noticed :/11:56
manchickenmjg59: What is?11:56
manchickenmjg59: Please don't say ndiswrapper11:56
AmaranthNafallo: If they did it'd be a choice between ipw3945 and broadcom11:56
manchickenI will be *very* upset if I buy a machine and have to run ndiswrapper.11:57
LaserJockdoes madwifi work for most Atheros chips?11:57
manchickenIIRC11:57
manchickenI've never had one of those.11:57

mjg59manchicken: ipw394511:58
=== Nafallo will have an Atheros tomorrow
manchickenNafallo: Dell is only giving out 3945, and I think System76 is doing much of the same.11:58
AmaranthNafallo: Oh, right, broadcom is only on the Windows versions11:58
NafalloAmaranth: only US has non-Windows versions probably :-)11:59
manchickenI ordered my dell on the 23rd of July, they still haven't shipped it or charged the money.11:59
LaserJockhmm, I suppose "Atheros Communications, Inc. Unknown device 001c (rev 01)" is not a good sign11:59
NafalloAmaranth: at least D630 only came with Windows :-P11:59
manchickenNafallo: I think Dell sells Ubuntu machines wherever they ship to normally.12:00
Nafallomanchicken: I ordered one 5th of July. When they delayed it until 22nd of August I called and told them I couldn't wait that long.12:00
manchickenWhat's the alternative?  Pay the windows tax?12:00
Nafallomanchicken: yes.12:00
Nafallomanchicken: or freedos12:00
AmaranthDude I think I read on a blog the other day about someone ordering from Dell when the announcement was made and still not having their laptop12:00
manchickenFreedos isn't a bad idea if the hardware is decent.12:00
manchickenBut I wanted a laptop, and I don't think they have any lappies with freedos12:01
manchickenAmaranth: They're saying they'll for sure have it out as of the 17th, so we'll see.12:01
manchickenI just hope they get it to be before we close on this house and move.12:01
Amaranthdon't believe the date on the website12:01
AmaranthUnexpected demand and all12:01
LaserJockI'd love to know what the sales figures have been12:02
bhalehi LaserJock12:02
NafalloAmaranth: mine was delayed cause they couldn't get the LCD in time :-)12:02
LaserJockbhale:  hi!12:02
LaserJockonce Walmart starts selling Dells with Ubuntu I'll be impressed12:03
LaserJockmight even try to buy one12:03
LaserJock:-)12:03
manchickenAmaranth: Well, they estimated more than three weeks out, I would hope they'd be right.12:04
ajmitchhello12:04
LaserJockhola ajmitch12:04
mathiazhi ajmitch12:05
ijuz_i got btw. my Dell with FreeDOS12:05
manchickenijuz_: Was it a laptop?12:05
ijuz_the Ubuntu laptop offers aren't so cheap and halfway crappy stuff12:05
ijuz_yes, a Latitude D830 n-series (that means without OS basically)12:06
bhaleright, i buy latitude (business) over the home user stuff12:06
stgraberLaserJock: with only some ads in Newspapers (as they do with their weekly offers) would already impress me :)12:06
manchickenI don't know, the laptop I ordered looks awful nice on paper.12:08
LaserJockI think I'll just buy Apple from  now on12:08
manchickenThey do broadcom.  No thanks.12:09
ijuz_i asked in an apple store, you can't get apple laptops without OS12:09
manchickenAnd ATI12:09
LaserJockijuz_: well, I want the OS, that's partly the point12:09
stgraberI personaly bought one HP Compaq (enterprise product), which was SLED certified (but shiped with XP Pro and free upgrade to Vista business)12:09
manchickenijuz_: And you want the ATI and the Broadcom?12:10
LaserJockATI doesn't bother me so much, Broadcom might12:10
manchickenI've been on Broadcom and ATI for 2 years now.  Never again.12:10
manchickenAnd I'll never buy another HP again.12:10
ijuz_manchicken: no thanks... i have that in my latitude D810 ;)12:10
stgraberso I have both XP (school use), Vista (support for people not running Linux yet) and SLED certified (any Linux should run just fine)12:10
LaserJockI've got an HP desktop from walmart, it was a piece of junk, but from Walmart, what do you expect12:11
