[01:45] bspencer: sorry, my ssh connection to my server was dead for the last few hours [01:45] bspencer: I'll try to sort that our tommorow and get back to you [01:46] bspencer: probably something provisional for now. it is kinda late to start worrying about themeing now [01:46] bspencer: I did keep saying we need to get things rolling again and again, not much more we can do now probably [01:46] kwwii_, sure [01:49] I have to say that I am totally unhappy about how the whole themeing stuff has gone [01:49] say more [01:49] you waiting for us and us not getting our part done? [01:50] well, I sent many mails discussing the problems and it seems that it was always assumed that I would do the artwork and the development of such === doko [n=doko@dslb-088-073-122-216.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu-mobile [01:50] yes, basically === asac_ [n=asac@debian/developer/asac] has joined #ubuntu-mobile [01:51] I feel like we dropped the ball too. Our PRC holiday took a lot out at the end and I was unable to create the new HTML and work on theme packages [01:51] maybe we could just drop in some graphics in the existing hildon-theme-mobile-basic package [01:52] and work on the complete theme package post-gutsy due to freeze [01:55] well, I know that on my side there will be no excuses as to why things did not get done...I must say that I am very unhappy with the intel side of this whole deal - without adilson we would not have any theme package at all [01:56] i mean, how hard can it be to change the flash bg from blue to orange? [01:56] hm, I'm totally unaware of any help from adilson [01:56] or changes to the flash pkg [01:57] or any theme whatsoever [01:57] I know of this broken theme I've been hacking on adding graphics from jason [01:57] and Peter_u3 was doing some work to get the tools for building themes to work I thought [01:57] is there a theme package from adilson? [01:58] I recently added support in the mobile-basic-flash package for updating the background both for flash and new HTML version based on user preferences [01:58] and also notification in the HTML version for updating the theme [01:59] bspencer: lol, he is the one who has now stepped up and make the theme package [01:59] the hildon theme package [01:59] I have been going on and one about that and nobody seemed to care to he had to take care of it [01:59] crap [01:59] and now we have some half-way sollution [02:00] with the old layout [02:00] I am not going to buy flash to change the background of the flash package that we cannot distribute anway [02:01] if there was more to it, I would but just to change that it is stupid [02:01] it seems to me that some people simply do not want to change to our them [02:01] I honestly never remember any request to change the flash background. seriously [02:01] s/them/theme [02:02] I do :) [02:02] I send an email a few days ago stating this [02:02] well crap on us. sorry dude. [02:02] recently Mithrandir pulled a new mobile-basic-flash package [02:02] it defaults to HTLM [02:02] no flash req'd [02:03] this probably doesn't make anyone really happy, but if you want to change its background you can [02:03] and the graphics for the buttons are in the theme, if they exist at all [02:03] so if you are using adilson_theme package, then there are likley no graphics called mb_gridhtml_* [02:03] so the UI will look lame [02:04] I can give you buttons, as I said in my email but they will be for our theme and not for another color [02:04] it seems like whatever I say if it is not centered around not doing a black-orange theme it gets somehow ignored [02:04] what is adilson's theme called? [02:04] ume-basic I think [02:04] is it in gutsy? [02:05] I think he already submitted it, not sure [02:05] ok. I don't see it in the repo yet. [02:05] I'll try to get wth him next time he is alive and sync [02:05] there were a few problems, as expected [02:05] the hildon theme tools download the layout from maemo [02:06] the fact that we are figuring this out now says a lot about the process [02:06] granted making the theme was way more complex than I anticipated [02:06] we need to change the tools themselves to fit our stuff [02:06] I'm pretty sure that my guys don't know what those changes are [02:07] no matter which color it is [02:07] for our layout specifically? [02:08] our layout being the layout-4 with the things we do not need removed (perhaps) and the things we do need added (like the marquee, buttons, etc) [02:08] if the artist has to tell people what to do as far as coding goes there is real problem if you ask me [02:10] you're not just the artist [02:10] though you play one well [02:11] I think Peter should document our knowledge of themes on a wiki so we all get on the same page [02:11] but that is after gutsy [02:11] for gutsy we should tweak adilson's theme and see if we can get it in === asac [n=asac@debian/developer/asac] has joined #ubuntu-mobile [02:12] images/mb_gridhome_btn_active.png images/mb_gridhome_btn.png images/mb_gridhome_btn_prelight.png [02:12] lol, my job is just artist..that I happen to know a bit more because of my experience does not mean that I have the time do that for this project [02:12] I am working on like 4 other artwork projects at the same time [02:13] fair enough. I'm working on like 10 other applications at the same time and trying to keep my marriage in tact [02:13] I can give good advice where neccesary but that does not meant that I am opening a vi to start coding :-) [02:13] oh, yeah, I am married with child as well [02:13] anyway [02:14] time for bed [02:14] sure.

I just want to know if anything I can help. === matt_c [n=mcroydon@gozur.sunflowerbroadband.com] has joined #ubuntu-mobile === kwwii hops from one meeting to the next :-( [04:55] it's still another hour. [04:55] for this one, at least. [04:56] Peter_: teh biggest issue we have technically at the moment is figuring out how to use our own layout [04:56] Mithrandir: I mean the distro meeting [04:56] oh, true. === smagoun__ [n=steve@c-24-61-87-16.hsd1.ma.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-mobile === smagoun_ [n=steve@c-24-61-87-16.hsd1.ma.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-mobile [05:17] kwwi, I'm a bit confused. Once we are done with adding pieces to end of template.png one by one, the coordinate for new pieces should be clear without affecting existing elements. I proberbly didn't get your point, yes/no? [05:17] kwwii [05:19] Peter_u3: yes, we just need to add the things somewhere in the file and then add them to the layout but look at the theme-tools and you will see that they want to download a layout from maemo svn...adilson has started work on this but we need to finish it and really get it right === wasikevin [n=kevintw@221-169-13-105.adsl.static.seed.net.tw] has joined #ubuntu-mobile [05:24] kwwii, you mean layout.txt? === smagoun__ [n=steve@c-24-61-87-16.hsd1.ma.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-mobile [05:25] Peter_u3: if you look at the tools to create a package you will see that it downloads stuff from maemo svn, that is the problem with the tools...in addition we need to add the coordinates to whatever pics we add to the layout, yes [05:26] so one part is getting the tools right and the other part is getting a theme package in bzr so that we can tweak it [05:27] really, I am just an artist who knows too much :p === derFrank_ [n=Frank@P8d0c.p.pppool.de] has joined #ubuntu-mobile [05:29] downloads? I didn't see. Strange. For adding coordinates to layout.txt, you are our only hope. Yes, you know much,:-), good guy. [05:29] run hildon-theme-bootstrap and see what it does [05:29] but we need to get a theme package in and set as default before we can really tweak and test anything [05:30] otherwise testing with the daily builds is a huge waste of time [05:31] I don't think we need bootstrap. An artist don't need. [05:31] I didn't try to play with that. [05:32] yes, an artist will definitely need it to create a basic package for their new theme === tmarble [n=tmarble@user-38q4et6.cable.mindspring.com] has joined #ubuntu-mobile [05:34] From a real use point, I don't believe OSV/OEM need bootstrap. kwwii, I mean they need a hildon-theme-toos without bootstrap. [05:35] Peter_u3: using bootstrap makes things much easier as they do not have to hunt through text files to set the name, email, etc [05:35] it is a great place to start a fresh new theme [05:35] without having to hack through an older one [05:36] Hmm, yes, I admit it's true. But from schedule point, how about skipping it for this release and adding it next milestone. Anyway I will try to look at bootstrap tomorrow. [05:38] right, we can wait on those parts due to the schedule [05:38] in any case, you'll want to check with agoliveira to see what he has done on this stuff so far and where the problems lie that we still need to get fixed [05:39] I didn't look at bootstrap yet. agoliveira, you are back from lunch? [05:40] Peter_u3: Yes, just arrived I modified the theme-tools so we can grab a standard theme that Ken created from the repository so one can modify and upload to it. Right now we are testing it. [05:40] this has been a busy week for us :-) [05:41] agoliveira, good news. === agoliveira can't agree more... [05:41] So any other thing I can help? [05:42] morning [05:42] kwwii, yes, busy week for you. Sorry again I didn't notice you for my long vacation. [05:43] rustyl, morning. you see my mail on ubuntu list? [05:44] Peter_u3, i'm just now opening email === kwwii wants vacation :-( [05:44] Peter_u3: BTW, I have a claws package for you to play with. I'll email ina minute. [05:45] agoliveira, ok. but I can only play with it tomorrow. is that ok? [05:46] Peter_u3: No problem, it a holiday here tomorrow so I won't be working anyway :) [05:46] kwwii, when was your last vacation? [05:47] rustyl, I want to get notification as system entering idle in/out. Any service under dev or plan for ppm? === agoliveira is a month away from a week long vacation not know for about 5 years :) [05:48] Peter_u3: about a year and a half ago [05:48] Peter_u3, ppm is not the software component that will put the system to sleep [05:49] agoliveira: you are going to paradise so maybe this makes up for it! [05:50] rustly, does ppm determine and send notification as system enter idle and out of idle triggered by a user touch? [05:50] ian_brasil: I can't be more anxious :) [05:50] For those wanting to know where it is: http://www.salinas.com.br/salinasindex.htm [05:51] kwwii, agoliveira, it's awesome. [05:51] agoliveira: let's try to convince somebody to hold the next UDS there === gary_l [n=Gary@fw.pepper.com] has joined #ubuntu-mobile [05:52] there is a convention centre at least! [05:52] amitk: Well, they *do* have a good area for this kind of conference :) [05:53] we probably would not get any work done though...and/or we would get work done and hate ourselves for not enjoying the plaec [05:53] agoliveira, beautiful place. I hope I can attend next UDS.:) [05:54] Peter_u3: I hope we can convince the boss about it :) [05:54] rustyl, if ppm doesn't , which component does? [05:56] Peter_u3, what software component does this on a normal ubuntu system? [05:57] I can hook notification from dbus service of org.gnome.ScreenSaver. And somebody told me gnome network manager has code doing that. But I didn't try to look into. === Don_Johnson [i=dkjohns2@nat/intel/x-a24926664cb95ce7] has joined #ubuntu-mobile [05:59] Peter_u3: Just sent you the patch. You can build and do your changes based on this. After you're done, send me the patch back and I'll integrate to it. [05:59] agoliveira, get it. [05:59] asac: you around for the meeting? [06:00] davidm: and you? === HappyCamp_laptop [n=chatzill@static-71-245-107-3.ptldor.fios.verizon.net] has joined #ubuntu-mobile [06:00] Mithrandir, I am here [06:00] will be here in a few [06:00] hiya Don, John [06:00] Meeting chain up :) [06:00] Mithrandir, hello [06:00] rustyl, there is a signal of "SessionIdleChange" for the service. [06:01] Don_Johnson: will charlie be joining us today? [06:01] Peter_u3, i suspect you should be looking into the hal dbus interface, but i'm not positive [06:02] I'll check on charlie [06:02] Peter_u3: Check libosso. It may help. [06:03] HappyCamp_laptop: seen Mauri around? [06:03] Mithrandir: I can go check === Charliefjohnson [i=cfj@nat/intel/x-6cf030e84d49a458] has joined #ubuntu-mobile [06:03] rustyl, agoliveira, I will look at both. Good advice. [06:03] cwong1: cheers [06:03] Let's start to bet food on the meetings. If you're not in time for the meeting you own a candy (or beer :) ) to the rest of us. [06:04] Mithrandir: I have not seen Mauri, I'm actually at home. [06:04] Mithrandir: she is not at here desk at this moment [06:04] agoliveira: beer > candy. [06:04] +1! [06:04] s/here/her/ [06:04] cwong1: could you or somebody else who are local to her and have her cell phone # give her a ring? [06:05] Mauri is not in her cube === JayC_ [i=chatzill@nat/intel/x-7c53c251bea84486] has joined #ubuntu-mobile [06:05] rustyl: do u have her cell #? [06:05] let me see === agoliveira thinks she's married so her husband might get jealous about the ring :) [06:06] no answer [06:07] maybe she is stuck in traffic [06:07] hm, ok. [06:07] rustyl: are all of your guys here, if you can assume command until she returns? === bspencer [i=chatzill@nat/intel/x-cdd4d1ff62099b2a] has joined #ubuntu-mobile [06:08] well, if bob is hear, then yea, lets go :-> [06:08] here [06:08] morning, afternoon, and evening ya'll [06:08] btw, none of us seem to physically located in the same place [06:08] sorry 8miins late [06:08] agoliveira, can you send me your latest theme package to me as well? [06:09] ok, let's start then [06:09] #startmeeting [06:09] Meeting started at 17:09. The chair is Mithrandir. [06:09] Commands Available: [TOPIC] , [IDEA] , [ACTION] , [AGREED] , [LINK] , [VOTE] [06:09] Peter_u3: We talk after meeting, ok? [06:09] ok [06:09] agoliveira: how about during the meeting in another channel ? [06:10] like #ubuntu-theme [06:10] http://kryten.incognitus.net/mootbot/meetings/ubuntu-mobile.20071004_1705.html doesn't seem to have any action items from last week [06:10] LINK received: http://kryten.incognitus.net/mootbot/meetings/ubuntu-mobile.20071004_1705.html doesn't seem to have any action items from last week [06:10] bspencer: Unless you're desperate, I prefer to pay attention here for now. [06:11] agoliveira: np [06:11] bspencer: Thanks [06:11] does anybody have any more agenda items apart from the ones on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MobileAndEmbedded/Meeting? [06:11] Mithrandir: discuss gutsy deadlines for mobile [06:12] are we done, or what does the freeze mean? [06:12] sounds good, add it to the agenda? [06:12] sure. [06:12] Mithrandir: How about private builds ?/ (i.e. builds with flash included for example.) [06:13] Charliefjohnson: we have those now. I can't make them public, for obvious reasons. [06:13] Charliefjohnson: but feel free to add it to the agenda and I can talk a little bit about them [06:13] Mithrandir: maybe general LPIA status? [06:13] Mithrandir: and "Remaining to do's for gutsy" from the global view [06:14] s/global/mobile [06:14] Do people think it has become as stable as the previous i386 builds. [06:14] Mithrandir: One item - Graphics config for Menlow installs ? [06:14] just add them all. :-) [06:15] oh, and next time, please do this before the meeting, not at the start? [06:15] how -- on the wiki, or with Mootbot ? [06:15] bspencer: on the wiki [06:15] oh [06:15] MootBot doesn't know anything about agendas. [06:15] Mithrandir, upgrade libtelepathy from 0.0.55 to 0.0.57. [06:15] Mithrandir: Ok - didn't know if there was some magic command to enter agenda items or not. [06:16] I'll just start [06:17] [TOPIC] status reports [06:17] New Topic: status reports [06:17] seems we have all the status reports on the list now, does anybody have any questions for any of them? [06:17] Peter_u3: maybe directly update to 0.0.58 - it contains some "robustness against NULL errors" fixes [06:18] amitk: your update, does this mean we now have lpia images without the stock drm.ko? [06:18] Mithrandir: For the HTML UI, when will that become the default UME UI ?? [06:18] Mithrandir: yes [06:18] I have a question about UI Status. Bob mentioned flash performance bug was fixed. Can you tell more? [06:19] dholbach, I can't agree more. But we need Mithrandir's buyin. [06:19] bfiller: there were two bugs, one was setTimeout (fn, 1) which got called every 1/1000 of a second when there wasn't flash [06:19] bfiller: bug #2 was in our flash where each icon loaded a startup animation in the background that was running. So if you had 10 icons, you also had 10 running hidden movies [06:20] bspencer: thanks [06:20] bspencer: That sould count for performace :) [06:20] yep [06:20] :) [06:21] bspencer: one other ui related question: can you now get back to running apps without launching a new instance every time? [06:21] Mithrandir, bspencer : Is the HTML UI still scheduled for integration into UME by the end Oct.?? Status says request upload to Gutsy? [06:21] bfiller: you mean when you launch the browser 3 times do you always get the same instance, instead of 3 of them ? [06:22] bspencer: yes [06:22] bfiller: we have a bug for each app. Some are done, some are not yet but highest priority [06:22] bspencer: ok [06:23] Charliefjohnson: It is ready for inclusion with gutsy now. I spoke with mjg59 and he said he would do it friday [06:23] Charliefjohnson: I asked bspencer about it yesterday and he said uploading a new mobile-basic-flash at that point was sensible. I think that gets us the HTML view by default. [06:23] Mithrandir: correct [06:24] if mjg59 is doing it tomorrow I'll just let him do it. [06:24] Mithrandir: sounds good [06:24] Yup, that's the plan [06:24] mjg59: So we should see daily builds with the new UI next week sometime ? [06:25] s/new/hot new [06:25] Charliefjohnson: I assume so, yes [06:26] ToddBrandt: for the keyboard configuration applet, have you given any thought to the hildon input method framework? [06:26] what's necessary to see the new ui now? Just installing the m-b-f from git? === chippy_ [n=chippy@ip208.190.reserved.ish.de] has joined #ubuntu-mobile [06:27] smagoun__: and also a new hildon-theme-mobile-basic This has the latest button backgrounds. Then set your background to be black, and set your theme to hildon-theme-mobile-basic (instead of the non-existent Human) using gconf-editor [06:27] Mithrandir: Jian has been focusing on the keyboard, what specifically did you have in mind? [06:27] smagoun__: piece of cake. :) [06:27] lol [06:27] bspencer: thanks, that sounds like fun! [06:28] when we will get all that done in the default install? [06:28] ToddBrandt: have you looked at the input framework at all? [06:28] Did the menlow builds get fixed so that the non-Poulsbo drm modules are no longer included ?? [06:29] kwwii: next steps (my opinion): get agoliveira / kwwii theme working with HTML UI, make it the default. We can perhaps do that today/tomorrow for upload by mjg59 this friday [06:29] Mithrandir: no, I've been focusing on keybindings, sound, and brightness [06:29] kwwii: and I will work with ToddBrandt to get default settings into gconf for background color and theme selection [06:29] Charliefjohnson: yes. [06:29] kwwii: something like that ...? [06:29] bspencer: right, let's get that done asap (although today is already over for me) [06:29] kwwii: you work lame hours man. Never when I do. [06:30] ;-) [06:30] sometimes I stay up late just to be grumpy though :p [06:30] appreciated ;) [06:30] Mithrandir: OK - great! === javamaniac [n=gerardo@2001:5c0:914f:0:0:0:0:1] has joined #ubuntu-mobile [06:30] Charliefjohnson: btw, if you want any of your items discussed, it would be good to add them to the agenda. [06:30] bspencer: I won't be working tomorrow (religious holiday here) but we can settle that on monday. [06:30] anyway, let's move on? [06:30] Charliefjohnson: edit this page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MobileAndEmbedded/Meeting [06:31] ToddBrandt: I saw that one of the moblin-applets changes required a patched hildon-control-panel. This lives in both moblin and launchpad. When will all the hildon stuff be removed from moblin? [06:31] agoliveira: monday is soo far away. If you can hand off your stuff to Peter_u3 then he and I can do more [06:31] bfiller: hildon-control-panel is on moblin? [06:31] bspencer: Sure, let's talk about it later. [06:31] bfiller: That patch is for gstreamer initialization and is bad, I'll be removing it today [06:32] bspencer: it's listed in http://moblin.org/repos/projects/, as well as hildon-libs [06:32] [TOPIC] Update on broken daily builds [06:32] New Topic: Update on broken daily builds [06:32] agoliveira, you can get you holiday planned :) [06:32] bfiller: the sound configuration applet will also be temporarily disabled as Rusty and I have determined that it's not very useful for mobile platforms [06:32] the daily builds for mccaslin has been fixed for a little while, but menlow has been broken due to the stock drm.ko being included. [06:33] amitk has now fixed that, so we should hopefully have nice and working images tomorrow. [06:33] any questions? [06:33] Mithrandir: Is the xorg.conf also being set right now? [06:33] Charliefjohnson: I've never had a problem with that being wrong. [06:34] Charliefjohnson: are you starting X by hand? [06:35] No - Instead of setting the 2D driver to "psb", it was using something else. [06:35] fbdev IIRC [06:35] /etc/X11/xorg.conf isn't used, so what's there is irrelevant. [06:36] Charliefjohnson: on crownbeach or samsungs? [06:36] nevermind.. psb -> crownbeach [06:36] Mithrandir: I guess I'm missing something here. Where is the driver being set? [06:36] Mithrandir: Maybe I'm clueless. The newer X servers are not using xorg.conf ?? (I only run Crownbeach.) [06:37] it's using /etc/X11/xorg-crownbeach.conf (iirc, that's the name, it should be easy enough to see) [06:37] Mithrandir: OK - got it. Thanks. [06:38] moving on, then [06:38] [TOPIC] private builds [06:38] New Topic: private builds [06:39] Charliefjohnson: what is it you were wondering about those? [06:39] Mithrandir: What the mechanics will be ?? Where, what and how? [06:40] it's essentially just a mechanism for stuffing anything which isn't in the archive into a build. [06:40] it has to come from an archive of some sort, though. [06:40] Mithrandir: So can we start doing a menlow_full private buidl which include the flash plugin? [06:41] I want to use this as little as possible so as to give people an incentive to get their fixes into the archive, but some bits, like the Adobe flash player we can't distribute at all, so that would be appropriate. [06:41] Charliefjohnson: yes, we've been doing those for a few days already. [06:41] Mithrandir: Can you send an email about where to find them? [06:42] Charliefjohnson: we'll have to set up password-protected download areas and such. That is not yet ready. [06:42] I'll talk to the cdimage folks about how exactly we're going to publish them. [06:42] they shouldn't be listed anywhere, nor should they be rsyncable without a password. [06:43] Mithrandir: please file a ticket in RT about the download area [06:43] Mithrandir: OK thanks. Our internal test teams would appreciate it. [06:43] Can't we just have a icon or menu item that just apt-get flashplugin-nonfree [06:43] Mithrandir: the sooner the better, so they are aware [06:44] [ACTION] tfheen to get download area for proprietary builds set up. [06:44] ACTION received: tfheen to get download area for proprietary builds set up. [06:44] any more questions? [06:44] Mithrandir: not from me. [06:44] moving on, then [06:45] [TOPIC] TODO for gutsy [06:45] New Topic: TODO for gutsy [06:45] we are cognizant of the fact that we are in a deep freeze and we want to know how long we should continue full-court press to try and get things into UME gutsy [06:45] so in the next few days, is it still possible to upload new bits and what is left before we are done with anything gutsy [06:46] and can relax and get acquainted with our wives and kids back home [06:46] bspencer: the release team are projecting Monday evening as drop-dead for 7.10 [06:46] IMHO: if the target for UME is now Hardy - then why do we care bout Gutsy anyway. [06:46] from experience, that sounds about right. [06:46] Charliefjohnson: good point. perhaps I shouldn't [06:46] this bleeds into the topic I was going to raise next [06:46] which is planning for the transition to hardy [06:47] my goal was a working HTML UI with theme in gutsy [06:47] w/o flash requirement [06:47] we may have an awkward period where there is a lot of churn in hardy, prior to the first milestone [06:47] and I wanted to raise the question of whether we can just tolerate that, or if we should make some arrangements to temporarily continue development based on 7.10 in order to keep things moving [06:48] we need to bite the bullet at some point, and I'd like us to do it early rather than late. [06:48] at the same time, we need to not end up being blocked on everything being unstable [06:48] it is quite likely that we will not be able to create images based on Hardy for several weeks [06:49] Mithrandir: HappyCamp would like your style, but it stinks to have unusable stuff. [06:49] mdz: keeping things moving for UME customers would be a good thing [06:49] and a lack of builds has been an issue for Charliefjohnson and others in the past [06:49] mdz: we definately need to be able to create new images all the time (IMO) [06:49] mdz: We have a number of driver integrations coming in late Oct./early Nov. We'd like to not block those due to the switch over to hardy. [06:49] I've estimated that we'll have our first usable build of Hardy on November 10th. [06:49] mdz: some sort of transistion plan sounds appropriate [06:49] but that's a guess more than anything else. [06:50] We need to get some way to get releases turned around and into builds, reasonably quickly [06:50] Mithrandir: so that means no fresh builds from 15 October - 10 November [06:50] Maybe wi will have to fork and keep going on 7.10 before stop later at some point and spend time just merging... === agoliveira shivers on the tought... [06:50] Charliefjohnson: there's no reason to believe this would block integrating the drivers, just producing a complete build based on them [06:50] though that certainly makes testing more difficult [06:50] Can't we pursue the builds against gutsy + ppa thanks to the new work by Mithrandir to allow gutsy + private archive ? [06:50] agoliveira: it's not as bad as it sounds [06:50] lool: that's what I proposed [06:50] Uh I can't read then, sorry [06:51] which brings up a question? Should driver integrations happen before or after the sync to 2.6.23? [06:51] lool: on the mailing list, I mean [06:51] mdz: Deppending on how long it takes, can become ugly. [06:51] lool: the mechanism I've created is flexible enough to allow that to happen without any extra effort. [06:51] mdz: Ah [06:51] amitk: I'd suggest tracking the head of development [06:51] I really think we we'll need to have the continued Gutsy builds until Hardy is ready. [06:52] Charliefjohnson: "ready" is a pretty gray area :) [06:52] mdz: It arrived during the meeting! [06:52] agoliveira: bootable to a working UI [06:52] Charliefjohnson: continued gutsy builds won't help us, since no new code will be flowing into Gutsy (since it will have been released). What we can do is create a side repository, and do builds based on Gutsy + further mobile-specific updates [06:52] we don't have support for doing both gutsy and hardy-based builds at the same time, so that would require more work. JFYI. [06:53] mdz: I agree, but there _might_ be cases where the driver (which seem to be written for 2.6.18-20) might not just work. I want to make sure Charliefjohnson & team understand that [06:53] mdz: Sorry - I mean your Gutsy + mobile updates. What we really can't have a 4 weeks without a build to test with. [06:53] Mithrandir: But perhaps the private builds against private archive need to be namespaced already? [06:54] Charliefjohnson: I'm inclined to agree, hence the suggestions [06:54] lool: they are. [06:54] amitk: drivers written for 2.6.18 won't work on gutsy either, no? [06:54] Mithrandir: I don't think we need parallel builds [06:54] Mithrandir: But not with gutsy? ok [06:54] Mithrandir: we go from gutsy -> gutsy+ppa -> hardy, always a single build === Inuka [i=chatzill@nat/intel/x-d6fbde05356ab2aa] has joined #ubuntu-mobile [06:55] mdz: probably, but the deltas are smaller. [06:55] mdz: that's doable. [06:55] mdz: Yes that would be fine. [06:55] mdz: Doesn't make it easy to test the hardy builds before switching === vivijim [n=vivijim@86.115.13.57] has joined #ubuntu-mobile [06:55] lool: sure it does, I have a couple of setups which I can cron into doing daily builds just fine. [06:55] For some time things will overlap a bit but it seems the best plan so far. [06:55] they just wouldn't be DC internal [06:56] Mithrandir: Oh ok; I don't quite understand what those builds exactly do so specially that individuals can't build images yet [06:56] lool: that can be tested using moblin-image-creator [06:56] lool: the daily builds just use image-creator with a special configuration === rob_ [i=rob@nat/intel/x-746b746ec991723c] has joined #ubuntu-mobile [06:57] lool: there's nothing magic about them and anybody can build them. [06:57] Hmm Intel got some network issue [06:57] looks like intel just fell off the face of the earth [06:57] mdz: at least the intarweb. Let's hope they're still alive. :-) === agoliveira feels like 100000 people were screaming... [06:57] well, the DC-internal archive is of course DC-internal, but I have the files that go into it [06:57] mdz: So the existence of the daily builds is simply to help people who can't run image creator, I suppose people from test teams and QA etc.? [06:57] Mithrandir: if it was a natural disaster, they'd time out individually ;-) [06:57] good point. [06:58] lool: it's to provide an official build which is always up to date [06:58] lool: it's also a reference point. [06:58] lool: so that people can replicate each other's results in testing, e.g. [06:58] Ok [06:58]
