jasonhello i was wondering if any of you people program in C++12:52
ikoniamost of the applications in ubuntu are written in c++, so mosst of the developers can12:52
ikoniajason: as I mentioned in the other channel12:52
Amaranthmjg59: ack, sorry12:53
LaserJockikonia: most?12:53
Amaranthmjg59: yeah using nvidia but it happens if i blacklist the nvidia driver too12:53
LaserJockikonia: if you include C I think I would agree, but I'm not sure about C++ specifically ;-)12:53
jasonok i wanted to learn C++ for linux and ive been having a harder time googling for specific real world examples12:53
ikoniaLaserJock: couple of pythons slip thorugh the net ;)12:53
LaserJockheh12:53
jasonany help pointing me in the right direction would be great12:53
ikoniajason if you can't find any resources to learn c or examples, then your not going to have the aptidue to learn c12:54
LaserJockjason: actually sourceforge I believe lets you filter projects by language12:54
Amaranthikonia: almost zero apps in ubuntu are written in C++12:54
Amaranthwell, in the default desktop, anyway12:54
ikoniaAmaranth: C yes, apologies12:54
LaserJockAmaranth: there's gotta be some12:54
jasonsourceforge is for projects im not looking for projects im looking for example sites12:54
ikoniaAmaranth: I was picking up a conversationwith jason from another chanel where he was rambling12:54
ikoniaI was trying to highlight an example, badly12:55
LaserJockjason: well, a program is an example12:55
jasonits a more complex example12:55
mjg59Amaranth: Try it from the console (sudo /etc/acpi/sleep.sh force) without nvidia loaded. You'll be unlikely to get a console back, but you can then see if the machine is still alive.12:55
ikoniajason: amazon.com - there are books12:55
AmaranthLaserJock: gnome-system-monitor12:55
Amaranthmjg59: alright12:55
Amaranthmjg59: do the pm-trace thing?12:55

jasoni currently program in php OOP just want to stear into c++ for app development12:56
LaserJockjason: so maybe just google C++ tutorial?12:56
jasonor C12:56
Amaranthok, brb12:56
jasonthanks that did the trick for c++ tutorial12:56
jasonhttp://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/12:56
Lamegowell, most of the ubuntu specific apps are written in python, not C++ :)12:59
jasonpython has a gui01:00
jasonor i mean can create one?01:00
Lamegoyes, it does not have a gui, it has libraries which provide a gui, same as for C++01:01
jasonneat01:01
jasonwhat IDE do you use for it01:01

Lamegoops, i mean, pygtk or wxpython01:03
Lamegojason, you have plent of examples your system, more /usr/bin/update-manager :)01:05
jasonis that a binary file or text01:05
Lamegoit is a text, more was the command to read it01:06
jasonsorry didnt see the more01:06
Lamegowhen in doubt: file /usr/bin/update-manager ;)01:07

LaserJockjason: python is a scripted language so you have many many examples already on your computer01:13
LaserJockjason: there is also a book called Dive Into Python which you can install (if it isn't already) in Ubuntu01:14
AmaranthLaserJock: diveintopython is a dependency of ubuntu-desktop :)01:15

AmaranthMrMazda: no, afaik those drivers are gone01:37
cjwatsonide-generic is still there01:39
MrMazdaWhat's the secret to using them? I did modprobe -r ata_piix but the installer just reloaded it. My installation target is hda2201:40
cjwatsonhmm, it's true piix.ko isn't built any more01:41
cjwatsonMrMazda: what problem are you trying to solve? it's usually better to move forward than back ...01:41

=== doko [n=doko@dslb-088-073-087-196.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel
MrMazdacjwatson: forward is not substituting a 14 partition limit for a 62 partition limit. SUSE and Mandriva furnish legacy drivers so people can continue to use existing partitioning.01:49
cjwatsonmy point was that it would be good to report bugs on the current drivers so that they can be fixed, because they do resolve other problems01:51
=== archlich [n=archlich@cpe-74-74-219-225.rochester.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel
cjwatsonI agree the limit is unfortunate, and it's not a problem that had occurred to me before01:51
cjwatsonas for legacy drivers, you'd need to ask the kernel team01:52
cjwatsonhmm, there is a pata_oldpiix.ko01:52
cjwatsonthough drat, that's still libata01:53
=== cube3x3 [n=root@cpe-24-24-93-200.stny.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel
cjwatsonMrMazda: I think the best you're likely to be able to do at present is to build the module yourself and blacklist the other in modprobe configuration so that it doesn't get reloaded01:54
MrMazdacjwatson: libata cannot be fixed because the limit is in the kernel to use the same limits that plague real SCSI. The only possible kernel fix (already planned) is actually a complete libata rewrite that doesn't depend on SCSI. Until either that rewrite or a device mapper solution, only legacy drivers are possible solution for systems requiring access to all existing partiitons.01:54
MrMazdacjwatson: how would that help getting installed in the first place?01:54
cjwatsonI didn't say it would be easy ...01:55
mjg59MrMazda: Yeah. I'm afraid there's currently no practical way to install on devices with more than 16 partitions.01:55
mjg59You're the first person to have complained, amazingly01:56
cjwatsonI think if I needed that many partitions I'd be inclined to move to LVM01:56
MrMazdamjg59: not exactly: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/13498301:56
ubotuLaunchpad bug 134983 in ubuntu "Cannot mount /home on /dev/hda16" [Undecided,New] 01:57
cjwatson(I'm not saying that your situation isn't a problem, understand - but this isn't going to change for 7.10 at this point)01:57
cjwatsonI should probably make the installer check the partition count so that it fails earlier / more obviously01:57
mjg59MrMazda: Heh. Ok, second.01:58
MrMazdathere's an even bigger problem in that it is a booby tray for upgraders who have no clue it's a problem01:59
mjg59Yes.01:59
mjg59But it's an issue that was introduced with the previous release, so I suspect it's hit about as many people as it's likely to now02:00
MrMazdamjg59: SUSE & Mandriva at least offer a clue: e.g. http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Releases/Mandriva/2008.0/Notes#Changes_to_the_Mandriva_installer02:00
cjwatsonif somebody could file a bug on update-manager to add a check, that would be good02:00
cjwatsonMrMazda: TBH it simply hadn't occurred to me up to now. Now that you've mentioned it we can release-note it in various places02:00
MrMazdamjg59: a google for the subject of libata partition limit or somesuch does turn up a lot of discussion from people who hit the problem in SUSE & Mandriva beta testing, and people who simply can't with Fedora, plus other distros affected02:02
mjg59MrMazda: I'm not denying it's a problem. I just don't think the number of people it hits is large.02:02
mjg59For those it does hit, it's obviously a major issue and we ought to be communicating that.02:03
mjg59But since you're only the second person to have raised it as an issue with us, it's something that hasn't featured as a high priority...02:03
MrMazdamjg59: I know, like the problem of mousetype on web pages doesn't affect many people, but it's a big problem for those it does hit. :-(02:03
MrMazdalvm isn't for everyone02:04
MrMazdaI wanted to bring this up on ubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com a long time ago, but my attempts to post there always get rejected by moderators :-(02:05
cjwatsonmoderation rejections from ubuntu-devel@ are typically quite clear about where things should go instead02:07

StevenK"I've played that game, it was a pain, and we're not playing it again."07:50
pittithat game -> include them into l-u-m?07:51
pittior did he refer to dapper's vmware modules?07:51
mjg59Ben doesn't want to include modules which have a tight version dependency with userspace07:52
StevenKThat game was including them in l-u-m, which I believe was done for Edgy or Feisty07:52
pittithe package itself looks sane enough, no problem there07:53
pittibut if we put it in, this sort of commits us to support it and keep it up to date07:53
pittii. e. increases the number of things to do for kernel ABI bumps and testing, etc.07:53

pittiKeybuk: vol_id seems to be a good tool for getting the UUID (just in case we don't want the bind-mount approach); however, iterating over all block devices sounds a bit painful01:02
Keybukpitti: vol_id is *the* tool for getting the UUID :-)01:02
Keybukbut as I said, don't do it that way if anything involving devmapper, lvm or md comes into play01:03

HobbseeKeybuk: ("Yet Another Launchpad Status")05:22
Keybukso to me, that's Confirmed because we've confirmed the bug exists and is replicable -- but not Triaged, because we don't know what's wrong with it05:22
BenCsabdfl: cherry picking individual fixes is way too time consuming, which is why we're opting for a linux-backports-modules of the current alsa for people that want to install it05:22
Keybukotherwise if that's Triaged, it's not clear to be what Confirmed is for05:22
Keybuksince that should be the same as New?05:22
HobbseeKeybuk: others can reproduce it / it is reproducible05:22
Hobbseeor so the logic goes, anyway.05:22
cjwatsonthe distinction as I've heard it explained is that Confirmed means that somebody can reproduce it, and Triaged means a developer can reproduce it05:22
cjwatsonwhich is, I concede, a non-trivial distinction (often reproducing a problem is 90% of the way to solving it)05:23
=== BenC sides with cjwatson's assumption

sabdflBenC: why don't we generally go with upstream alsa, rather than putting it in backports?05:26
Hobbseesabdfl: then you'd know that there's reasonable amounts of disagreement and discussion about the statuses :005:26
bdmurrayI think it will become much harder for a triager to determine when a bug is triaged.05:26
pittiKeybuk: any idea how to interpret "/dev/disk/by-id/dm-uuid-LVM-KJO4ugYyA4nFPEw5btZXayQjDRI8VPeP" ?05:26
bdmurrayAnd the concept behind the extra status was to offload some work from developers.05:26
BenCsabdfl: if we had done it in time (for testing), I'd be happy to put it into linux-ubuntu-modules, but it's too late now05:26
Keybukpitti: devmapper device with the devmapper UUID LVM-KJO4ugYyA4nFPEw5btZXayQjDRI8VPeP05:27

BenCsabdfl: I've never liked the idea of tracking such a huge set of modules out-of-tree, but things the way they are, we made this last minute decision to handle it this way05:27
Keybukpitti: right05:27
BenCsabdfl: probably be something we do from the start past gutsy05:27
Keybukit's part of an LVM wotsit05:27
KeybukLVM passes in the LVM UUID when it sets up the device05:28
Keybukprobably the VG UUID05:28
Keybuk(rather than the UUID of the filesystem *inside* the VG)05:28
pittiKeybuk: so, I wonder why I don't get proper /dev/disk/by-uuid/ in the installer for LVMs05:28
Amaranthbdmurray: I honestly get annoyed with someone other than me or mvo sets a compiz bug to triaged05:28
cjwatsonbdmurray: which in many cases is a bit misguided anyway - until developers can count on 100% triaging coverage, they'll often look at everything coming in anyway :-)05:28
Keybukpitti: no filesystem UUID available at the point the device is created?05:28
Keybukpitti: e.g. because it's formatted after being set up? :p05:28
cjwatson(not that it's not a noble goal)05:28
Amaranthbdmurray: It seems like the QA team just assumes valid output from apport is enough to mark a crash bug as triaged05:28
pittiKeybuk: that's most likely05:28
BenCsabdfl: kind of the obvious thing when most sound bug reports end with "it works with current alsa" :)05:28
cjwatsonBenC: didn't we have to back out current alsa because it regressed a bunch of intel chips?05:29
pittiKeybuk: can it be poked somehow? (udevtrigger doesn't)05:29

Keybukpitti: udevtrigger should poke it05:29
Keybukthough you might have to poke something surprising05:29
Keybukecho -n change > /sys/block/dm-NN/uevent05:29
Keybuk?05:29
BenCcjwatson: we backed out snd-hda-intel because of that...we couldn't just include that one module without a lot of core alsa API changes05:29
pittiKeybuk: ah, wait, i was still in chroot /target05:29
BenCcjwatson: hence the reason for doing a full backport05:30
pittiKeybuk: yes, udevtrigger in the outside chroot did the trick05:30
cjwatsonBenC: oh, it was because we tried to pick and choose? ok05:30
bdmurraycjwatson: Right, but the triaged bugs should be a better starting point.05:30
BenCcjwatson: right05:30
cjwatsonbdmurray: yeah, it depends on the time of the release cycle05:30

StevenKIt's much better when people file -uvf reports, and then another person "Hey, wow, great! I want this, so I'm going to set to Confirmed" - which for a motu-uvf request means "Two people have looked at this and rubber stamped it"05:35
HobbseeKeybuk: the equivalent of the australian decision dice05:35
bdmurrayKeybuk: because anybody can confirm the bug it is possible that someone may have confirmed an X bug without obtaining the necessary log and configuration files.  So after confirming that everything is there and that the reporter is not making a mistake I would set the status to triaged.05:36
Kopfgeldjaegerpitti: any progress with the cryptsetup stuff? can i help you somehow?05:36

Keybukbdmurray: so if use of Confirmed was limited to members of qa, assignee or package contacts - that would solve the problem?05:37
bdmurraycjwatson: I disagree with what kiko wrote up about triaged05:37

ubotuCross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in cal2.jsp in the calendar examples application in Apache Tomcat 4.1.31 allows remote attackers to add events as arbitrary users via the time and description parameters. (http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2007-4724)09:14
cjwatsonsuperm1: I believe I answered that question a day or two ago; perhaps you missed my reply09:17
superm1cjwatson, that's possible.09:18
superm1which channel was it in?  I'll look through logs09:18
cjwatsonsuperm1: casper/ubiquity-hooks/20xconfig copies /etc/X11/xorg.conf over to the target system. It doesn't copy over the relevant bits of the debconf database because that isn't supposed to be necessary; if not copying bits of the debconf database is causing a problem, then that's a bug09:18
cjwatson(was approximately my answer from the other day)09:18
superm1that would be causing a problem (not copying over the relevant bits of debconf).  Since they aren't copied over, any effort to regenerate xorg.conf using dexconf will fail09:19

cjwatsonsuperm1: are you calling dexconf directly by hand?09:20

=== cassidy_ [n=cassidy@63.116.222.46] has joined #ubuntu-devel
cjwatsonsuperm1: I don't think that's a good idea - try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg instead?09:21
cjwatsonI was under the impression that dexconf wasn't something you were typically supposed to call directly09:21
cjwatsonbut rather something that the xserver-xorg maintainer scripts call, and that's just provided as a separate binary for debugging convenience09:22
superm1cjwatson, that works properly and will generate a new xorg.conf properly.  the problem is that when a xorg.conf.failsafe is made for BulletProofX, it pulls the data from debconf09:22
superm1i have only been using dexconf for debugging indeed09:22

cjwatsonpitti: another possibility: go back to the previous code in base-installer, reinstate the update-initramfs diversion in pkgsel, and change pkgsel to run update-initramfs with a bind-mounted /dev (but the rest of pkgsel can run without that)09:24
=== rluberti [n=rluberti@85-18-55-36.ip.fastwebnet.it] has left #ubuntu-devel []
superm1cjwatson, since the new debconf pieces aren't copied over at all during the live install, what data *should* be in those debconf variables after you first boot into the new system?  The data gathered from the cdimage buildd's local machine?09:26
cjwatsonum, goodness knows, probably not very well-defined09:27
cjwatsonwith the exception of the special uses to which the installer puts it, the contents of the debconf database aren't really expected to be well-defined outside maintainer script runs09:27
superm1well i wonder if bryce is aware of the issues this can be causing then.  i'll discuss this more with him later09:28
cjwatsonin fact you're supposed (theoretically, it doesn't *quite* work right) to be able to nuke the db without much harm done - that's why it's in /var/cache09:28
superm1i see09:28
superm1would you be entirely opposed to adding a step to copy this debconf data over in ubiquity as an interim fix (provided it didn't break anything)?09:29
superm1and then for 8.04 coming up with a better solution09:29
cjwatson       You can also use debconf in  other,  standalone  programs.  The09:30
cjwatson       issue  to watch out for here is that debconf is not intended to09:30
cjwatson       be, and must not be used as a registry. This is unix after all,09:30
cjwatson       and programs are configured by files in /etc, not by some nebu09:30
cjwatson       lous debconf database (that is only a cache  anyway  and  might09:30
cjwatson       get blown away). So think long and hard before using debconf in09:30
cjwatson       a standalone program.09:30
cjwatson^-- debconf-devel(7)09:30
cjwatsonat this point I'm worried about the flakiness of such code in ubiquity too09:30
superm1i understand.09:31
cjwatsonthough it could be done, there's a copy_debconf function in bin/ubiquity which does this09:31
cjwatson(actually I should get rid of that for exactly the same reasons, of course!)09:31
superm1haha09:31
cjwatsonconsole-setup is part of the installer so there's some clash of assumptions there09:31
cjwatsonif a very small change to copy_debconf can make this work, I'd be prepared to upload that09:32
superm1cjwatson, i'll see what i can come up with09:32
mvoivoks: *ick*09:32
cjwatsonif this only affects mythbuntu, though, I'd prefer it to be conditionalised for the mythbuntu frontend?09:32

superm1cjwatson, i wouldn't expect it to only affect mythbuntu based on its basis09:33
superm1cjwatson, but i'll check with bryce09:33

pitticjwatson: the problem is that this is now a "damned if you do, damned if you don't" situation09:43
cjwatsonpitti: why won't it help?09:44
pitticjwatson: i. e. when running with bind-mounted /dev, libraw1394 will fail to install (and god knows what else), and without bind-mount, the next package which update-initramfs'es will trash it09:44
cjwatsonpitti: my suggestion was to bind-mount /dev just around the update-initramfs call09:44
cjwatsonpitti: specifically not around the whole of pkgsel09:44
cjwatsonpitti: diverting update-initramfs in pkgsel will ensure that it's not called when you don't expect it09:44
pitticjwatson: ah, I see what you mean09:45
cjwatsonand you can bind-mount /dev around things that update-initramfs in base-installer, just as before09:45
pitticjwatson: actually, wouldn't it be easier to use that finish-install hook of cryptsetup?09:45
pitticjwatson: this is done as a very last thing, after installing everything else, right?09:45
pitticjwatson: so this thing could bind-mount, update-initramfs, unmount09:45
pitticjwatson: that would avoid reverting the diversion fix, etc.; seems a little less intrusive to me09:46
cjwatsonthe diversion change isn't a problem, I only did that for cleanliness09:47
=== Keybuk shakes his fist at Python's USELESS documentation

cjwatsonpitti: well, whatever you want, I suppose that would work but it seems a lot more fragile09:47
pitticjwatson: ok, if you think so; I was just pondering the possibility09:48
cjwatsonyou need to make sure there isn't *another* finish-install hook after it in order, and yet it still needs to be called before unmounting the CD (er, probably); and interesting things happen if the user goes back and forward in the installer menu in expert mode09:48

cjwatsonpitti: looks good to me. what a hack. :-)10:48
cjwatsonpitti: isn't there a race between you calling udevtrigger and the devices appearing?10:48
pitticjwatson: thank you so much for your help; I'm just a d-i noob :(10:48
cjwatsonI can never get my head around that10:48
cjwatsonthough Keybuk tells me udevtrigger/udevsettle is useless ... but you might need a better explanation from him10:49
pittiKeybuk: ^ any idea?10:49
cjwatsonhey, I have an idea10:49
sorencjwatson: I think he suggested it himself this time.10:49
cjwatsoncall update-dev10:49
pitticjwatson: last time he explicitly recommended me to call udevtrigger to get the missing uuids10:49
cjwatsonthat way at least d-i is wrong consistently :-)10:49
cjwatsonok, if Keybuk suggested it then I guess it must be OK10:50
pittithat's a wrapper around udevtrigger plus some magic?10:50
cjwatsonif type udevtrigger >/dev/null 2>&1 && type udevsettle >/dev/null 2>&1; then10:50
cjwatson        udevtrigger10:50

cjwatsonKopfgeldjaeger: does no harm10:50
pittiKopfgeldjaeger: no, I'm not10:50
pittiKopfgeldjaeger: but I definitively need /proc10:50
Kopfgeldjaegeryeah, thats right.10:50
pittiso I just added it in case10:50
cjwatsonpitti: if Keybuk suggested udevtrigger, let's just leave it as you have it10:50
pittiok10:50
cjwatsonKopfgeldjaeger: bits of initramfs-tools do walk /sys, so yes, it is needed.10:51
sorenI'm curious: How do you guys test d-i stuff? There must be a simpler way than to build a fresh installer image and try it in a vm?10:51
cjwatsongrep /sys /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hook-functions10:51
pitticjwatson: I hope that the changelog is written halfway comprehensible, and that it explains the dilemma10:51
pitticjwatson: for hardy, I'd instead fix packages to install cleanly with a dynamic udev and keep /dev bind-mounted (seems much cleaner to me)10:51
cjwatsonsoren: typically I either edit it while it's running (you have nano), or I wget or scp in updated versions while it's running10:51
cjwatsonpitti: yeah, I think setting up /dev/.static/dev might be enough10:52

cjwatsonKopfgeldjaeger: you probably get different results in some circumstances10:52
cjwatsonKopfgeldjaeger: it won't error out, but it may behave differently10:52
Keybukpitti: do you need the UUIDs immediately?10:53
Kopfgeldjaegeryeah..10:53
cjwatsonthough only in MODULES=dep mode10:53
cjwatsonKeybuk: yes, it's basically udevtrigger; update-initramfs -u10:53
sorencjwatson: Oh, really? I would have thought you had some sort of special environment where you could do things more easily.10:53
pittiKeybuk: I call update-initramfs immediately after; a few seconds delay won't hurt, but it's not defined10:53
cjwatsonsoren: it's easy enough10:53
Keybukok... then he needs a udevsettle in there too10:53

=== YokoZar1 is now known as YokoZar
Kopfgeldjaegergood night10:54
pittianyway, I'll do another test with that better10:54
Keybuktrigger tells udev to re-run its rules for devices in the /sys tree10:54
Keybuksettle actually waits for udev to finish10:54
cjwatsonpitti: no, it's a script shipped by di-utils (which is basically Essential as far as d-i is concerned)10:55
Keybukin this case, you're doing it to refresh the information about devices you already know about10:55
Keybukso you're not falling into the "udevsettle does not wait for new hardware" trap10:55
cjwatsonaah10:55
cjwatsonnow I understand10:55
pittiah, got it10:56
cjwatsonsoren: sometimes I build a new udeb, grab it, udpkg -i it on the fly10:56
cjwatsonsoren: just depends what I'm doing10:56
cjwatsonsoren: there's a special monolithic initrd type which I used to use a lot more when I was porting d-i to Linux 2.6 on powerpc, which isn't really something you can hack on the fly; monolithic doesn't rely on a CD or the network for anything10:56
sorencjwatson: I suppose. To me it all just seems opaque.10:57
cjwatsonsoren: but I find that to lengthen the test cycle too much for ordinary work, really10:57
cjwatsonsoren: plus I've been working on d-i for 3+ years so I have a head-start in terms of instinct for what will work ;)10:57
