gustavonareaHello, everyone. I have a Toshiba Satellite L35 laptop and it doesn't work with the latest kernel versions in Gutsy (either X or KDM/GDM don't start). It does work with Feisty's latest kernel. Do you want me to report this bug right now or would you prefer to try to solve this now?12:43

bryce_heya maelcum01:16
slangasekogra: there's currently no mention of Edubuntu-specific improvements in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyGibbon/Beta; was this deliberate because we want a separate Edubuntu page like the one for Kubuntu, or is this an oversight I should correct now?01:16
maelcumhey bryce_. i guess kdm should run some script and then try to start X again, right?01:16
bryce_gdm calls /etc/gdm/failsafeXServer01:16
bryce_essentially yes; the failsafeXServer kicks in, shuts down gdm, does its gui thing, then restarts gdm01:17
maelcumok, pretty easy. that would be /etc/kde3/kdm/failsafeXServer then01:17
bryce_we'll need to modify that script to be kdm aware, but yes essentially we just need to have kdm run that script01:17
bryce_fwiw, the only reason I had to shut down gdm is because gdm has a rudimentary failsafe handler in it, that was getting in the road01:18
maelcumok, i was wondering. that should be fixable in kdm01:18
bryce_so if kdm is quiescent it may not need to be shut down01:18
bryce_however you'll probably want to have kdm do whatever it needs to do to start using the new xorg.conf01:19
maelcumthe path to failsafeXServer should probably not be hardcoded if this is to be more than a distro-specific hack01:19
bryce_there's also a couple gdm-isms in /etc/gdm/failsafeXinit that'd need altered01:21
=== RadiantFire [n=ryan@upstream/dev/RadiantFire] has joined #ubuntu-devel
bryce_I would like to think we could logic around these to make the same scripts work for both kdm and gdm01:22
bryce_but probably it'd be easiest to just hack them to make them all work kdm-specifically, and then see how different the scripts end up, and look into re-merging at that point01:23
maelcumpassing -config <failsafe-config-file> to the X server should work to temporarily replace its configuration without any hacks01:23
maelcumnow we need to figure out how to tell it to load a certain app01:24
bryce_some of the behavior could also be improved, such as if the hardware can't do vesa (or anything else), bulletproof-x can get stuck in a loop; however I'm not sure how to detect this situation cleanly yet01:24
bryce_you can specify X to start with a client, and then pass it an init script that runs displayconfig-gtk01:24
maelcumthat's almost trivial to implement - just changet the command-line options of X and run it again01:25
bryce_yup01:26
bryce_er, maybe01:26
maelcumtry to start again two times, run failsafe again if it doesn't work and so on01:26
maelcumthere are always unforeseen difficulties01:27

bryce_hmm, it's actually a bit late already, but since it's a kubuntu thing, I'd defer to Riddell's judgment on this01:29

tonyyarussoHi, I just noticed the package perl-suid, in main, has the note "Usage of this program is now strongly deprecated upstream and support (along with this package) will probably be removed in 5.10." in the description, but I see it still exists in Gutsy.04:20
bryce_cjwatson: I think I have a strong lead on bug 12700804:20

tonyyarussocjwatson: Aaaah.  Makes a lot more sense then.04:21
bryce_cjwatson: it occurs only on laptops, but I found I can reproduce it on my new 965 desktop, however *only* during installation04:21
bryce_is there something unique about Xorg while in the alternate installer environment, compared with a normal session?04:22
=== mrsno [n=mrsno@cpc3-blfs3-0-0-cust868.belf.cable.ntl.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel
bryce_essentially, what's going on is this is getting called:  /usr/bin/Xorg :67 -ac -probeonly -logfile "$TMPLOG" -config "$TMPCONF"04:22
bryce_this seems to work fine after installation, but while in the alternate installation session it causes those blocks on intel04:23
cjwatsonthere's really nothing unique, apart from the fact that the system is still being put together04:23
cjwatsoncertainly /usr/bin/Xorg is the same04:23
cjwatson/dev etc. should be bind-mounted04:23
bryce_I think I can put in an exception for intel laptops to not attempt this, but I'd also like to get this reported upstream, if I can demonstrate it independently of our installer environment04:24
bryce_I'm wondering if there's some framebuffer magic going on04:24

superm1it is indeed 0:2:008:04
superm1according to lspci08:04
bryce_hmmm08:04
superm1however if i look at the /etc/X11/xorg.conf.failsafe that was made08:05
superm1its listing the busid at 1:0:008:05
bryce_ah, then that's the problem08:05
superm1problem being on our side or yours :)?08:05
bryce_the problem being with @*%$ debconf08:06
superm1i'm assuming at some point the busid is stored in debconf and then recovered when building xorg.conf.failsafe?08:07
bryce_right08:07
superm1why can't you detect it dynamically?08:07
superm1when you build the xorg.conf.failsafe08:07
bryce_you can confirm this by running dexconf -o /tmp/xorg.conf08:08
superm1yup same busid08:09
superm11:0:008:09
bryce_I had found it sometimes gives 0:5:0 when it has no clue08:09
superm1well now i might have some further insight into this though08:10
bryce_apparently it can also return 1:0:0 when it doesn't know08:10
superm1this live disk was built on my laptop from our debootstrap/chroot script08:10
superm1and my busid for my graphics card is 1:0:0, but in the virtual machine i booted and am testing on its different08:10
bryce_I can put in another exception to ignore 1:0:0 in addition to 0:5:0, if you think this is a common thing, and not specific to mythtv08:10
superm1so at what point is that busid filled?  when a certain package is installed? (Perhaps when we debootstrap/chroot the disk)?08:11
bryce_debconf fills in everything during xorg-server postinit time08:11
bryce_so pretty early on in installation08:12
superm1so how is this avoided when building the normal ubuntu disks then?08:12
superm1you would think that the machine producing those disks would also put it's information into debconf08:13
bryce_that would be nice08:15
superm1which?08:16
bryce_I think when building the normal ubuntu disks, it just happens that the bus id is going to be identical in both cases08:16
superm1well perhaps a hook for d-i and ubiquity would be a good idea08:17
superm1to watch for busid08:17
superm1and update it in debconf before the reboot08:17
=== bryce_ nods
superm1either that or if you could dynamically determine the video devices available rather than relying on debconf when you generate that xorg.conf.failsafe08:18
superm1is there a technical reason why that's not feasible?08:18
bryce_in theory I should not need to specify the bus id at all; xorg should be able to autodetect that itself08:19
bryce_in testing, though, I found on a couple machines that it'd fail without it08:19
superm1oh that's very unfortunate08:20
=== carlos [n=carlos@canonical/launchpad/carlos] has joined #ubuntu-devel
bryce_I decided rather than invent my own bus id detector, to keep things as parallel to dexconf as possible08:20
superm1what types of machine combos were you coming across that would fail w/o it?08:21
bryce_iirc, it failed on my amd64 dell box08:22
=== ompaul [n=ompaul@freenode/staff/gnewsense.ompaul] has joined #ubuntu-devel
bryce_I think it failed on my old thinkpad, however it since lost its harddrive so I've not re-tested it lately08:23
bryce_wait, the amd64 case was where it was getting detected as 0:5:0; that case worked properly when I didn't use a bus id08:24
superm1i see08:24
bryce_the thinkpad's pretty old - a T2008:24
superm1yeah i was gonna say, on machines 1-3 years old that i've dealt with, i usually dont define a busid in there anyhow08:24
superm1in case i move cards around08:24
superm1and i've been fine08:24
superm1bryce_, with your current solution, things do break then also if someone moves a card to another slot then right?08:27
=== zyga [n=zyga@ubuntu/member/zyga] has joined #ubuntu-devel
bryce_superm1: possibly; I wonder how common that will be though08:30
superm1bryce_, well how would this sound for a solution?  By default write out the config with no busid, and should things still not come out without the busid, write out a new config that contains one?08:31
superm1it would cover most people from the first case at least, and the others would just have a longer time booting up into the bulletproof-x env than the first group08:32
bryce_I don't have an easy way of detecting a sequence of failed boots08:32
superm1oic08:32
bryce_gdm carries no state between different failsafeXServer calls08:33
superm1what about writing out two device sections?08:35

bryce_superm1: honestly the simplest solution would probably be to just drop the bus id stuff09:02
=== superm1 agrees
bryce_unfortunately I think it's with older hardware where bulletproof-x has the most utility09:03
bryce_newer stuff tends to get autodetected okay09:03
superm1i'm still a bit surprised that there is "any" hardware that can't at least detect busid09:03
superm1X -scanpci will still identify it as video hardware09:03
superm1will it not?09:03
bryce_unfortunately I don't have an easy way to test that09:04
pwnguinlspci -nn | grep VGA seems to work for me, but im guessing you guys have edge cases or something09:05
bryce_I thought about that, but it felt too hackish to me09:05

fabbioneno you can override that in most BIOs by selecting PCI/AGP first09:07
fabbioneit's really tricky09:07
bryce_pwnguin: it could easily be that the user added a higher power card because s/he didn't like the on-board video09:07
pittinixternal, Riddell, Hobbsee: Kubuntu page is still in the works? the strigi section has some broken formatting09:07
pwnguinah, i suppose thats a point to consider09:07
superm1have you considered just offering a poll up on the forums?  you'd get a pretty wide audience at least.  Just ask folks to take out the busid line of xorg.conf, and see if things work, and post their hardware that doesn't work with it missing09:07

Hobbseepitti: got no idea, i havent spoken to nixternal09:08
fabbionewhat bryce_ is doing is the safest09:08
fabbionehave been tested for years and it's basically the only way to go09:08
bryce_heh, well now you understand why I favored to stick close to what dexconf already does - figured others had sorted out all these decisions for me ;-)09:08
superm1heh :)09:08
fabbionebryce_: daniels and I did spend months trying to get that right09:08
fabbionethat's the closest we could get with automatic detection09:09
bryce_fabbione: yup09:09
superm1well regarding my original concern then, on a fresh install, how is that debconf first filled in then right now if there is no d-i hook for it09:09
pwnguinhow do the other distros fare with autodetection?09:09
superm1assuming you are using a disk built from the datacentre09:10
bryce_fabbione: although Xorg does a much better job figuring these things out these days09:10
stgraberpitti: hmm, that's weird you advertise the new thin client capatibilities but they don't work with beta (and the bug isn't in the caveats part)09:10
fabbionebryce_: yes.. but that requires you to fire up X. we didn't really have that option at the time09:10
=== bryce_ nods
pittistgraber: it'll go to the caveats09:11
fabbionebryce_: http://people.ubuntu.com/~fabbione/IMG_0342.JPG09:11

stgraberpitti: can't find it, I'll ping ogra when he's back to see if he reported it09:37
cjwatsonsuperm1: don't think about d-i hooks. d-i calls pkgsel which calls tasksel which calls apt-get install <stuff including xserver-xorg>, and xserver-xorg generates xorg.conf all by itself (using debconf defaults, autodetection, etc.)09:38
cjwatsonsuperm1: d-i is several steps removed from xorg.conf generation and never goes anywhere near it09:38
cjwatson(quite deliberately)09:38
superm1cjwatson, where would a hook fit most appropriately then for that to at least store the correct busid?09:39
cjwatsonsuperm1: that does not belong in d-i09:39
cjwatsonanything to do with the bus id should be done in the xserver-xorg package09:39
superm1perhaps a deliberate call to reconfigure xserver-xorg instead then?09:39
cjwatsonno09:39
=== ogra1 [n=ogra@p548AC093.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel
cjwatsonit's configured from scratch already, you don't need to reconfigure it09:40
=== jsgotangco [n=JSG@ubuntu/member/jsgotangco] has joined #ubuntu-devel
superm1well the issue that i'm seeing is that it is being configured with the busid information from the system it was built on (in the debootstrap/chroot)09:40
cjwatsonsuperm1: you realise that casper already reconfigures X?09:41
cjwatsonsuperm1: (and if you're talking about mythbuntu, leave d-i out of it)09:41
=== MacSlow [n=mirco@unaffiliated/macslow] has joined #ubuntu-devel
superm1cjwatson, yeah i realize that.  is casper supposed to be storing the new information it got from reconfiguring X in debconf then?09:42
cjwatsonI think it would help if you read debconf-devel(7) end to end first09:42
cjwatsonit isn't casper's responsibility to store that in debconf. The package does that all by itself09:42
cjwatsonand if its reconfiguring logic is wrong, it should be fixed09:43
cjwatsondon't go hacking around adding hooks09:43
superm1well i'm not planning on doing so. i'm still trying to determine which package then is actually storing the correct busid in debconf then other than xserver-xorg09:44
cjwatsonit's very simple, 'dpkg-reconfigure -fnoninteractive xserver-xorg' as called from casper should cause it to configure itself for the current system09:44
cjwatsonsuperm1: xserver-xorg is the only thing that stores that value that I'm aware of; the value in debconf is for use only by xserver-xorg09:44
pwnguinsuperm1: could the answer be none? i sometimes get the wrong answer =/09:44
superm1that's what i had thought09:45
cjwatsonsuperm1: I think you're sort of mixed up about how debconf is involved09:45
cjwatsonindividual packages provide their own templates to debconf, which may contain default values09:46
cjwatsonthey may also set values at run-time09:46
superm1right09:46
cjwatsonin normal operation their interaction with debconf is self-contained09:46
cjwatsonthat however doesn't stop them from detecting things from the current system and setting them in the debconf database (and then pulling them out again and using them to generate configuration files) in the absence of user input09:47
superm1well my confusion was that i didn't realize that casper was actually supposed to be updating these items by calling upon dpkg-reconfigure09:48
cjwatsonthe self-contained bit is important though and for some reason people seem to have particular trouble with this where X is concerned09:48
cjwatsoncasper doesn't get any information when it reconfigures X09:48
cjwatsonit tells X to reconfigure, and the result is an updated xorg.conf09:48
cjwatsoncasper never looks at that09:49
cjwatsonit simply trusts that it is done correctly09:49
cjwatsonsimilarly it seems to be common to think that the installer is responsible for generating xorg.conf - it isn't, because the X packages themselves stand a much better chance of doing that correctly :)09:49
cjwatsonubiquity copies over xorg.conf from the live filesystem, but ultimately that still comes from xserver-xorg09:50
superm1i think i need to more throughly read xserver-xorg's postinst09:50
superm1which i understood previously, (regarding how the xorg.conf was generated)09:51
cjwatsonnow, it appears to be possible to preseed xserver-xorg/config/device/bus_id to force the bus ID to something else09:51
cjwatsonBUT09:51
cjwatsonit sounds like your problem is that a value of the bus ID from a previous run on the same filesystem (though possibly different monitor etc.) is kicking around, and that isn't the sort of problem you can solve by preseeding09:52
cjwatsonit would be a straight bug in reconfiguration logic, i.e. not reconfiguring properly09:52
superm1yeah, preseeding is not the solution to this problem09:53
superm1which would again bring me back to reading that postinst to track if i can catch where things are going wrong in the reconfiguration logic :)09:54

iwjcjwatson: IMO you should use Soren's regexp from https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/105890/comments/311:40
ubotuLaunchpad bug 105890 in ubiquity "hostname permitted containing consecutive dots" [Low,Confirmed] 11:40
iwjsoren: "example.com." isn't a valid domain name (in this context, anyway - you shouldn't set your hostname to it).11:41
soreniwj: Sure. I just thought it was the fqdn that was matched against the regex.11:41
sorenIf not, you're absolutely right.11:42
iwjErr, well, FQDNs ought not to be quoted with trailing . in most contexts.11:42
iwjsoren: I'm afraid I don't seem to follow the point you're making.11:42
soreniwj: You don't think a proper fqdn ends with a '.'?11:43
iwjI suppose one could do r'^(([a-z0-9] |[a-z0-9] [a-z0-9-] *[a-z0-9] )\.?)+(?<=\.)$' if Python supports that.11:44
cjwatsoniwj: OK, I don't have to do the whole thing in a single regex so just if not foo.endswith('.') is fine11:44
iwjsoren: Well, the situation is a bit confused, but basically, yes.11:44
iwjcjwatson: Oh, that's better.  Do that.11:44
soreniwj: Yes, you don't or yes, you do? :)11:45
iwjsoren: When you pass a name to the resolver, or write it in a zonefile, trailing `.' is treated specially.11:45
soreniwj: Yes. An fqdn is supposed to be unique. To be sure of its uniqueness, you add the trailing dot. Otherwise things might (rightfully) append other stuff to it.11:46
iwjBut normally trailing `.' just leads to syntactically invalid uses.  For example, if we set the hostname to `host.example.com.' then it will eventually do MAIL FROM:<root@host.example.com.> which is a syntax error.11:46

cjwatsonsoren: I don't need your separate '-' test though - it already handles that separately11:47
cjwatsonand throws a separate error11:47
TheMusoIs there any particular reason why bash-doc ships /usr/share/info/dir.gz? I see that dir and dir.old files exist in /usr/share/info, presumably generated by info to keep a record of the info directory's contents. There are a couple of packages in universe that also ship /usr/share/info/dir.gz, which of course have a file conflict.11:48
TheMusoIs the best approach to remove the dir.gz file from these packages?11:48
cjwatsonTheMuso: there was a discussion about that in Debian a while back - basically one of the tools was generating dir.gz and so packages ended up shipping it by accident11:48
cjwatsonit would be worth checking at the same time that the info documentation is actually being installed correctly in other ways11:49
soreniwj: Yes, in that particular case, it's wrong.11:49
TheMusocjwatson: Ok.11:49
soreniwj: I don't know how much value it holds for you, but wikipedia seems to agree with me. "To distinguish an FQDN from a regular domain name, a trailing period is added."11:50
Mirvdefcon_: I think the title of that bug is wrong, but I do hope that someone would upgrade the rt2x00 drivers to the latest 2.0.8 release11:50
iwjsoren: Also, in any case, the user knows none of this.  When the user types the domain name in, most users will just type it.  And the installer knows it's always fq.11:50
cjwatsonI could just have the installer strip any trailing .11:51
iwjcjwatson: That would work too.11:51
cjwatsonI forget whether netcfg does that11:51
soreniwj: True.11:51
defcon_Mirv, same here, where can I find gutsy driver support11:51
soreniwj: Anyhow, this is turning into a discussion for the sake of the discussion.11:51
soren...and I'm getting hungry.11:51
cjwatsonnetcfg doesn't appear to, but then it asks for a domain while ubiquity only asks for a hostname11:52
cjwatson(at least it asks in expert mode if the moon is waning gibbous etc.)11:52

pittiseb128: it'll happen tomorrow02:35

seb128why not before?02:35
seb128hum02:36
pittiseb128: see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BetaProcess02:36
pittibut I hope we can flush the queue tomorrow around midday02:36
seb128like if beta is not good we are going to stay frozen enough to roll new images, etc?02:36
pittiI don't like to stall it any further02:36
seb128I don't get it02:36
pittiseb128: I seriously hope that this won't happen02:36

pittibut I do see that it makes sense02:36

seb128well, that's only a beta02:36
seb128if it has some bugs that's not a big deal02:36
pittiyeah, I agree02:37
slangasekdo we have to worry that anything that's already uploaded to the queue shouldn't have been because it violates FeatureFreeze, and needs to be cleaned out before unblocking?02:37

liwupdate-manager used about 95% of my cpu today, for half an hour, until I killed it; it claimed it was updating four packages03:34
StevenKseb128: It looks like due to gimp having it's own print stuff, it *might* require gutenprint changes. I'm still digging.03:34
mptI did file an extremely detailed suggestion on how update-manager can make its progress meter go from 0% to 100% once, instead of jumping around03:34
StevenKliw: I'd be curious if it had actually spawned dpkg or apt.03:34

KeybukStevenK: it's bad UI03:36
Spadsso often the best option for me is to kill -9 firefox03:37
Keybukbetter UI would have been if when you closed it, it remembered your open tabs03:37
Spadsso that I can free up the resources, and still have those tabs when I start again03:37
Keybukso when you opened it again, they were still there03:37
Keybukthen it doesn't *matter* if you accidentally close it03:37
StevenKMy firefox remembers03:37
evandSpads: you can set the "home page" to your previous tabs, so you don't have to kill the process to get all the tabs back.  That doesn't work with multiple windows though.03:37

Keybukso there's no "Log Out" option, just "Shutdown" and "Switch User"03:40
liwis the decision to make Nautilus windows be browser windows by default instead of spatial browser windows a big political issue in Ubuntu?03:40
Keybukif you switch user, the system either leaves your session running or saves the session for later03:41
mptKeybuk, that would be awesome03:41
Hobbseempt: apt-get remove --purge evms..?03:41

=== rbrunhuber [n=Miranda@highway.mvi.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel
Keybukbddebian: there could be an argument for "Fix Committed", "Fix Uploaded", "Fix Available" instead of the two states04:04
Keybukbut it'd be a bit of a nightmare to track04:04
Keybukespecially given the dream of tools setting them automatically04:04
KeybukFix Committed = applied automatically when a commit appears in a bzr branch specially tagged04:04
KeybukFix Uploaded = applied automatically when the upload processor sees a special changelog entry (LP: #1234)04:04
KeybukFix Available = applied automatically when the mirror tracker sees that the fixed version has appeared on all mirrors04:04
Keybukthe problem with the latter is what happens when an upload fails to build?04:04
Keybukthe FTBFS is a new upload04:04
Keybukwith a new bug fix04:04
pittimathiaz: ok, I'll ask Matthew to do that change on www.u.c., thanks for spotting04:04
Keybukso the system would have to apply it to the current version and all previous FTBFS versions04:04

esrIt is.05:14

sorenesr: It's a generic eject pictogram.05:14
StevenK"cdrommy" I'll have to remember that one05:15
sorenesr: I don't find that the graphic makes it at all clear that it's meant as a CD-ROM eject. Party because... well, it isn't. it's meant as a dock eject.05:15
sorenesr: Some docks have metal lock things that keep you from taking you machine off of the dock without break either or both.05:16
esrsoren: And what does "dock ejecct" mean to you?  Trust me, the button cannot be used to release the UltraBase.05:16
StevenKWhy the dock eject be on the laptop itself, though? Every dock I've seen has a big eject on them *not* the laptop.05:16
esrAnd it can't be used to operate a lock, either. There is one, but it's mechanical.05:17
sorenesr: "Dock eject" means eject (from) dock.05:17
sorento me.05:17
StevenKAnd on the UltraBase itself, I'm betting05:17
sorenJust because something's mechanical doesn't mean it can't be operated from software.05:18
esrOK, shall we just forget that "name* for cripsesakes?  I got it from ThinkWiki; Ghod knows what Lenovo calls the key.05:18

bddebianit looks like most of the libapache modules have names like libapache2-mod-foo2 now.  If libapache-asp-perl works, should the binary package be libapache2-mod-perl2 now?07:41
thomno07:43
thomit's a perl package, not an apache module07:43
thomit should reflect the naming of the perl module07:43
thomie, Apache::ASP or whatever07:43
bddebianHuh?07:44
bddebianlibapache-mod-perl is libapache2-mod-perl207:44
thomand that's an APACHE module, not a perl module07:44
thom(it ought to be libapache2-mod-perl, but anyway, that was my mistake and it won't get fixed now)07:45
bddebianSo should it be libapache2-asp-perl or just stay libapache-asp-perl? (I'm still not getting you. :-) )07:46
thomwhat is the name of the perl module? it should exactly reflect that07:46
thomie, if it is Apache::ASP, then libapache-asp-perl07:46
thomif it is Apache2::ASP, then libapache2-asp-perl07:47
bddebianAhh, now I gotcha07:47

stgrabermathiaz: do you want to add testcases for things like "print server", "mail server", ... ?09:21
mathiazstgraber: yes. That would be great.09:22
mathiazstgraber: heno said we'd wait after beta.09:22
stgrabermathiaz: have a list of them ?09:23
mathiazstgraber: but since the test cases are already written.09:23
stgrabermathiaz: I'm working on the testcases list for RC09:23
henomathiaz: right, we are doing a batch of updates now09:23
mathiazstgraber: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Cases/ServerInstall09:23

henoI added those here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/TrackerUpdate09:25
mathiazheno: seems good to me for the server cd.09:26
henocool09:26
stgraberheno: should we check with the different flavour if they want tests to be added ? (LTSP for Edubuntu would be an example)09:27
henostgraber: yes, sounds good09:28
henothey should be written first though09:28
stgraberRiddell ^09:28
stgraber(ogra not around)09:28
henoI have no idea how to test LTSP :)09:28
stgraberWho's xubuntu guy ?09:29
stgraberheno: You need two NICs in your server, one connected to the internet, the other to a switch where another computer is connected, then netboot the computer09:29
stgraberheno: it should be possible to do that with Virtualbox's virtual network09:29
Riddelllooks fine to me09:30
henook, we might have to write a detailed howto for that09:30
henoyes, Kubuntu and Xubuntu should be fine with the same test types as Ubuntu. they are quite generic09:31
stgraberok, so let's just add a LTSP test to Edubuntu09:31
henostgraber: yep, agree09:37
stgraberheno: if you have some free time can you start putting the wiki URLs next to the testcase on the wiki page ?09:39

terlmannhello guys... I was testing gutsy with my system , I use an r_200 , and running sauerbraten I encountered multiple glitches. However, the development run is almost over and I switched back to feisty for a clean system . After manually installing sauerbraten's libs, I ran it. None of the artifacts in gutsy were there. I think this problem is due to the recent debian pull for gutsy , as I used debian on this system shortly before testing gutsy and had12:26
terlmann the same trouble.12:26
Keybukterlmann: did you file a bug?12:27
terlmannI don't know how to report this bug because it is not really a bug , and there is no error messages or anything12:27
terlmannjust telling you12:27

Keybukprobably not12:29
Keybukit's in multiverse12:29
