mdamtWhat's the input method situation? I read in the spec that it will use onBoard, but it seems that mb-keyboard is used?10:17
=== wasikevin [n=tw917509@116.59.5.224] has joined #ubuntu-mobile
Mithrandiryes, we're using matchbox-keyboard at the moment.11:59
mdamtAny plan to change it?11:59
Mithrandirnot really, unless something better comes along.12:00
mdamtOk, hope this something can come out this week :-)12:01
Mithrandiroh, anything interesting happening which I should be aware of?12:02
mdamtWell something about input method. We're trying to get it out this week. Watch planet.maemo.org :-)12:05
Mithrandirsounds interesting.12:06
Mithrandirasac: for #129469 to be fixed, do I need to do anything more than change the build-depends and configure.ac?  It doesn't seem like midbrowser-dev ships any shlibs?12:51
asacMithrandir: carl wanted to look into it ... i haven't tried, but he claimed changing build-depends and configure.ac causes crashes12:51
Mithrandirasac: ok, anyway I think midbrowser-dev should ship a shlibs so packages built against it ends up having a dependency on it?12:52
asacMithrandir: we don't have soname versioned libs12:53
asacif it still works i can add it ... 12:53
asacand the libs are installed in pkglibdir as well12:53
asacMithrandir: the main thing about all this is that upstream doesn't support using the shared libs directly ...12:54
MithrandirI've read a little bit about it.  I think upstream are approaching this wrongly, but it's not a fight I'm willing to take on.12:54
asacMithrandir: the upstream way is to use a static glue which will find and load the proper gecko runtime engine for you12:54
asacMithrandir: right ... however we have now xulrunner-1.9 the upstream way and firefox build on top ... and indeed appears to work well12:55
Mithrandirok, but we don't want xulrunner 1.9 and firefox both in main, AIUI?12:55
asacno ... thats just for preview (gutsy+1)12:56
=== agoliveira [n=adilson@201.86.102.158.adsl.gvt.net.br] has joined #ubuntu-mobile
asacbut it shows that it works well and that debian claims that its sooo bad are mostly wrong12:56
Mithrandirso what do you think is the approach we should take?12:56
asacMithrandir: i think the crashes we see are because LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not set for the panel12:57
asacMithrandir: and basic flash is just a .so right?12:57
asacMithrandir: however carl said if you run the panel with LD_LIBRARY_PATH extended by midbrowser path .... then the whole panel crashed12:58
asac... which i find a bit scary ... if you can do a build an verify that extending LD_LIBRARY_PATH really crashes it then i can take a look.12:59
=== matt_c [n=mcroydon@137.147.45.66.cm.sunflower.com] has joined #ubuntu-mobile
asacbut i always hoped that intel would go ahead and put some effords in it as well :)01:00
MithrandirI won't have time for that today, but I could look at it later this week, sure.01:00
MithrandirI'll put in on my list of stuff to debug01:00
asacyou don't need to debug ... i just want a senior confirming that behaviour before i start looking into it :)01:00
asacif the panel really crashes though ... i would appreciate some hints why it might crash when just adding /usr/lib/midbrowser to LD_LIBRARY_PATH ??01:02
MithrandirI'd probably do it by adding an rpath for midbrowser to the .so instead, wouldn't that be better?01:02
asacMithrandir: that probably won't work ... as the lib you load wants to load more libs that don't have the rpath set01:03
asacMithrandir: the only option that would work is to link against all libs explicitly01:03
asac(only option with LD_LIBRARY_PATH and without using static glue)01:03
asacs/with/without/01:03
Mithrandirmhm01:05
Mithrandirugh, but ok.01:05
MithrandirI'll just test with LD_L_P set01:05
asacfeel free to test rpath as well ... its just that i tried it for something else (can't remember exactly what it was) ... and I ended up linking all libs explicitly01:06
asacMithrandir: my image-creator installed chroot is broken atm ... 1. the application menu is so huge that it doesn't fit on screen and if i click on the application switcher arrow in panel it crashes ... is that known?01:25
asacMithrandir: http://people.ubuntu.com/~asac/screen1.png01:26
Mithrandirthe second one is known, the first one I didn't know about.-01:26
Mithrandirs/-//01:26
asacits a fresh image (created about 14 hours ago ... and just dist-upgraded)01:26
asacMithrandir: currently everything is run as root ... how will this be in the end?01:28
Mithrandirthat's on my list of stuff to fix this week01:28
asacoh cool01:29
Mithrandirkwwii_: have you looked at the UI for dates and tasks and contacts?  At least some people like the openmoko screenshots better than the maemo ones; do you know how much of this can be done with theming and what'll require code changes?01:36
Mithrandirkwwii_: or if you have any suggestions as to what the UI should look like.01:36
Mithrandirkwwii_: I'm not asking you to whip up something, just wondering if you'd already looked at it and had some thoughts.01:37
kwwiiMithrandir: I have never seen the openmoko stuff but I can take a look01:39
Mithrandirhttp://www.pimlico-project.org/dates.html has some screenshots.01:40
kwwiiMithrandir: the openmoko stuff looks much similar01:41
kwwiierm01:41
kwwiisimpler01:41
kwwiibut I think that most of that is coding, not theming from the looks01:41
Mithrandirok; I guess the shiny buttons and such is just theming though01:42

MTecknologythis isn't really specific to mobile, but maybe somebody in here can help? I'm going to a university that doesn't broadcast their SSID. When I go anywhere else that is, I have a flawless time with wireless. They have two sets of SSID's, student1 and student2. What happens is that the network manager never seems to connect to the university wireless so I need to make separate profile for each. Does anybody know any solutions for08:35
MTecknology this? I really want to be able to just use the roaming mode for all of my wireless.08:35

HappyCampasac, you online?12:15
asacHappyCamp: what about?12:16
HappyCampI just sent you an email regarding a bug we are seeing with regards to network-manager.12:16
HappyCampI attached a patch file that I think fixes the issue.12:16
asacHappyCamp: the mail send to mobile list?12:17
HappyCampBasically network-manager is doing dbus restarts in the postinstall script, even though we have setup a policy-rc.d file that says that services should not run.12:17
HappyCampasac, yep.  I also CCed you directly12:17
HappyCampIt's a fairly simple change to the postinst script.12:17
asac"Patch to fix network-manager bug" ?? there is no CC 12:17
HappyCampI CCed you and the ubuntu-mobile mailing list12:18
HappyCampI'm guessing you received it?  It was to ubuntu-mobile and to you at your @ubuntu.com email.12:19
asacyes i received the mail with subject above12:19
asacwith lsbfix.patch12:19
HappyCampThat was from Todd.  I sent my own patch which I think might be better.12:20
HappyCampMy patch is to network-manager  debian/network-manager.postinst12:20
asacok i have it12:20
HappyCampGood :)  I was worried our mail servers sucked.12:21
HappyCampI'd be interested to hear feedback on the patch.12:21
ToddBrandtHappyCamp: I take it you removed the restart of the network server?12:21
ToddBrandtoh, never mind, I see your patch12:22
HappyCampToddBrandt, I made it honor if we have a /usr/sbin/policy-rc.d file which says, don't start services.12:22
HappyCampWhich unfortunately network-manager currently will try to restart dbus services even if we don't want services to be changed.12:22
ToddBrandtok, yea that's another angle at the bug, it's both there and in lsb-base12:23
HappyCampasac the diff is to network-manager-(0.6.5-0ubuntu912:23
ToddBrandtMithrandir said he was going to have one of their NM guys look at it but that will speed things up12:24
HappyCampSo lsb-base has a bug where it does post-install service stuff?  Even if we don't want it to?12:24
HappyCampToddBrandt, I think asac is one of the Network Manager guy, well at least based on the changelog I am looking at.12:24
asacyes probably 12:25
ToddBrandtHappyCamp: no it doesn't properly handle the case where tput returns a bad value12:25
asac... you don't want dbus to be restarted? how does that fix the bug Todd's patch tried to tackle?12:25
ToddBrandtThere's probably a thrid bug here too, somewhere in mobin-image-creator that causes the terminal characteristics to be muddled during an fset install12:26
HappyCampasac, No idea on Todd's bug.  Todd's patch is probably a perfectly good patch.  I am just trying to fix the issue where services are getting restarted even though in our case we don't want it to.12:26
asacok i thought because you replied to his patch mail it tries to replace that patch12:27
=== seb128 [n=seb128@ubuntu/member/seb128] has joined #ubuntu-mobile
HappyCampI was guessing that if my patch worked then lsb-base would not be getting involved.  But to be honest I don't know if that is the case.12:28
asacHappyCamp: what breaks for you because nm is restarting dbus?12:29
HappyCampasac, Not that.  I think it breaks because of the last two things, where it restarts some of the dbus specific components.  If  that makes sense.12:29
HappyCampThis: /etc/dbus-1/event.d/25NetworkManager restart12:30
HappyCampand this: /etc/dbus-1/event.d/26NetworkManagerDispatcher restart12:30
ToddBrandtHappyCamp: actually the bug is seen any time a service is stopped, started, or restarted from within package being installed/removed by moblin-image-creator12:30
asacHappyCamp: well ... we have to restart networkmanager in postinst12:30
HappyCampI think mess us up.  The dbus service itself is called via invoke-rc.d which honors the policy-rc.d file.12:30
HappyCampasac not if I don't want it to restart in my chroot.12:30
asacwhen don't you want that?12:31
HappyCampI would think, if I don't want it to restart in my chroot then it should not.12:31
asaci mean postinst is invoked when you receive a software update12:31
HappyCampMoblin Image Creator is doing it inside a chroot environement.12:31
asacso it needs to restart12:31
HappyCampOkay, maybe I am confused.  I want to stop it when we install the package.  Which I thought was when postinst gets called.12:32
asacyes, but that doesn't matter much ... the nm service needs to be restarted12:32
HappyCampMy patch should not affect anything except for the case when invoke-rc.d says don't install.12:32
asacHappyCamp: do you don't want to start it if its not running before?12:32
HappyCampasac, Even in a chroot?12:32
HappyCampI don't want anything things to be running in my chroot, service wise.12:33
asacHappyCamp: if you don't restart it in a chroot you cannot test it ... 12:33
HappyCampWell we have created /usr/sbin/policy-rc.d to return 10112:33
HappyCampWhich means that services should not be run.12:33
asacbut we are already running dbus in that chroot, right?12:33
=== sabotage [i=sabotage@nat/intel/x-11f82cc0e1e28860] has joined #ubuntu-mobile
HappyCampWe did this because a lot of applications do a postinstall script which dies when we are doing our install.12:33
HappyCampI don't think dbus should get started, unless we are doing it when we do a terminal.12:34
HappyCampBut that would not be during the install.  Currently our installs our broken.12:34
HappyCampNow I don't know for sure if dbus is or is not getting started when we install it.12:35
asachmm12:35
asacok i am a bit unsure at the moment ... but its late so this doesn't really mean a thing :)12:37
asaci will take a second look tomorrow and if good apply it12:37
HappyCampasac, We can wait until tomorrow.  No problem.12:37
HappyCampI just wanted network-manager to honor us using /usr/sbin/policy-rc.d   even if maybe we shouldn't be using it in such a blanket method.12:37
asachow critical is that?12:38
asaci mean i think it should be ok to have this in network-manager ... but i would like to batch this with the next upload i have to do anyways12:38
HappyCampWell we haven't been able to automatically build images since Thursday.  We have a workaround (manually install network-manager) but we would appreciate it getting fixed.12:38
asacok12:38
asacwhy did it break since thursday?12:39
asacwhat has changed?12:39
HappyCampMithrandir, changed the ubuntu-mobile package, I think.12:39
HappyCampTo bring in network-manager.12:39
asacok ... good12:39
asac(or not so good :))12:39
HappyCampBefore we weren't using network-manager.12:39
HappyCampThanks for your help.  Have a good night.12:40
asacHappyCamp: have you tested if it breaks anything in normal gutsy install?12:41
HappyCampasac, I tried it on my gutsy system:  sh ./network-manager.postinst configure12:44
asacok12:44
HappyCampAnd that worked.  But no, have not done a complete install :(12:44
asacno thats fine then12:44
asacHappyCamp: next time please submit a bug and maybe send a mailing list nag mail :)12:47
HappyCampasac, Okay.  Will do.  I'm guessing bugs are on launchpad.net ??12:48
asacbutits fine now :)12:48
