goukiSorry about the offtopic, but .. what are the possible locations for a startup file to be? I've searched all the ones I know but can't find the script which is getting started at boot time (and I don't want him to).00:46
TheMusogouki: /etc/init.d00:49
TheMusogouki: You looked there?00:49
goukiDid a -R ls on all folders, TheMuso00:49
TheMusoWHats the package?00:49
goukisynergys00:50
TheMusothats not in hardy...00:52
gouki!?00:55
goukiI don't get it. I'm not using Hardy00:55
TheMusoWell I don't easily have access to gutsy atm00:55
TheMusoso I can't check there00:55
sorenThere was never a package called synergys in Ubuntu.00:56
sorengouki: Are you using Ubuntu? :)00:57
goukiI know there isn't a package called synergys. I'm talking about a script, not a package.00:57
goukiThe software is called Synergy00:57
goukiWhat I'm asking is, where could this script be listed to start at boot time...00:58
TheMusogouki: dpkg -L syngergy will show you all files belonging to that package.00:58
TheMusosyngergy even00:58
TheMusogah00:58
TheMusoyou know what I mean00:58
slangasekTheMuso: but only if it's packaged, and he's suggested it isn't packaged00:58
TheMusoslangasek: Right.00:59
TheMusoMind is sorta elsewhere, on other things.00:59
goukiTheMuso: I have already done that. Still, no indication of the script on a startup directory00:59

gnudlestoday is the feature freeze....07:14
gnudlesI have a question07:16
LaserJockmorning pitti and mvo07:16
gnudleswith the new nautilus, why can't I copy a file to the same directory?07:16
mvohey LaserJock07:17
LaserJockmvo: I took care of desktop-multiplier, btw07:17
LaserJockhopefully you won't be getting more emails about that ;-)07:17
gnudlesright... keep ignoring me...07:19
RAOFgnudles: Have you checked out the nautilus bugs on launchpad?07:19
LaserJockgnudles: I doubt people are ignoring you, probably they just don't know the answer07:19
RAOFgnudles: This is possibly not the best place for such a question, either (#ubuntu-bugs or #ubuntu+1 are possibly better).07:20
RAOFgnudles: Also, it works for me.  Although the question seems somewhat odd: why would you want to copy something to the same place?07:22
dholbachgood morning07:22
RAOFHowdie dholbach!07:22
dholbachheya RAOF07:23
gnudlesRAOF: If I want to copy a source file template for example07:25
RAOFgnudles: Do you mean 'copying a file "foo" from mydir/ to mydir/ does not produce a file "copy of mydir"'?07:25
gnudlesit shows me a dialog07:25
RAOFOf whether or not you want to overwrite the file with the same file, yes.07:26
RAOFThis seems to be not-totally-unreasonable behaviour.07:26
gnudles"copy of foo" you mean...07:26
RAOFYes.  Of course :)07:26
gnudlesno07:26
gnudlesonce it was like this07:26
RAOFAh.  So this is a regression from gnome-vfs.07:27
RAOFFile a bug.07:27
gnudlestoday a dialog appears...07:27
gnudlesanother thing07:27
gnudlesin the dialog, you can add option for renaming if a file with the same name already exists...07:28
mvoLaserJock: thanks!07:28

mvojust for the fun of it07:56
pittiright, but to get this I need apt-get working :)07:56
mvoheh :) ok, if you don't have a current one, then yes07:57
mvo"sudo apt-key update" may also help, depending on the damage on the FS07:57

tjaaltonit turned out that the binary nvidia-settings shipped with the drivers is buggy, and the separate version can be patched so..08:26
glatzormvo: I am currently turning apt-dbus into an extra backend, so that it can be merged in the main repository08:26

tjaaltonsandmann replied08:46
bryceI don't completely understand what sorensen's working on, but it looks quite different from our concepts.  I don't understand how it's implementing multi-screen08:46
tjaaltonbryce: did you see soerens reply?08:46
brycesorensen said it's all in there, but I guess I'd need to study it more to see how it does it08:47
sorenpochu: I've not sent the extended key event stuff to Debian on purpose.08:47
glatzortjaalton: bryce: have you seen any code of his planned x extension? he wanted to add fade effects08:47
bryceI tried compiling and running his code, but the only piece I could get to run didn't do anything08:47
tjaaltonglatzor: nope.. sounds nice08:47
sorenpochu: It's not completely finalised.08:47

glatzorbryce: the actual monitor handling is now done by gnome-settings-daemon?08:48
tjaaltonhum, the vmware-stuff in lrm is ancient08:48
glatzorbryce: does gdm now use the settings-daemon in ubuntu?08:49
brycetjaalton: yeah I don't know what to think of the reply.08:49
sorentjaalton: There's vmware stuff in lrm?08:49
tjaaltonsoren: yes, player, server, tools08:49
sorentjaalton: Oh, that.08:49
tjaaltonsoren: not built in hardy08:49
sorentjaalton: Right, I remember now.08:49
bryceglatzor: I've not gotten to the gnome-settings-daemon part yet08:49
ivoksquestion for kde people; libqwt5-qt4-dev - any plans to move this in main?08:49
glatzorbryce: what are your plans for handling the new overriding nature of xorg.conf?08:50
bryceglatzor: redhat is developing a patch against gnome-settings-daemon to expand how it handles the monitor setup. I haven't looked at it though.  But it would seem most sensible to follow their design.08:50
tjaaltonsoren: do you know if we have the right to update those?08:50
tjaaltoncopyright doesn't mention anything08:51
sorentjaalton: No clue. Sorry.08:51
bryceglatzor: well, the work I'm doing is only for cases where xorg.conf does not need modification08:51
tjaaltonsoren: ok, no worries :)08:51
bryceglatzor: for situations where people do need to override things in xorg.conf, we'd need a different tool.08:51
bryceglatzor: there is also the case of bulletproof-x, which will need that kind of a tool as well08:52
tjaaltonbryce: I'll bring back "Device" in the Screen-section, which should at least make aticonfig and nvidia-settings to work again08:52
glatzorbryce: how does pitti now deals the proprietary driver installation?08:53
brycetjaalton: good idea08:53
bryceglatzor: sorry, don't understand the question?08:54
glatzorbryce: yeah, funny grammar08:54
bryceheya soren08:54
sorenbryce: Hey.08:54
glatzorbryce: how does the restricted drivers tool change the driver in the xorg.conf now?08:54
brycetjaalton, glatzor:  I've been having fun today screwing up my monitors by hitting Apply on this gui.  ;-)08:54
tjaaltonhehe08:55
bryceglatzor: ahh - I gather that's what tjaalton was just referring to via aticonfig and nvidia-settings08:55
tjaaltonnot really08:55
bryceno?08:55
tjaaltonjockey works right now, but aticonfig crashes08:55
tjaaltonjust like dc-gtk :)08:55
bryceheh08:55
tjaaltonnvidia-settings fails to write the config, which actually is a blessing since it would write all sort of crack08:56
mvo_dosn't jockey use the displayconfig code for the modifications?08:56
glatzormvo_: I haven't followed the jockey rewrite08:57
brycemvo_: I knew that envy uses guidance-backends now, but didn't know that jockey did too08:57
=== \sh_away is now known as \sh
glatzorbryce: the rate configuration won't be allowed in your tool? or just not yet implemented?08:58
bryceglatzor: it's there - but it's smart now; if you only have one rate available, it displays as a label rather than a dropdown08:58
pittiglatzor: jockey still uses guidance-backends nowadays08:59
glatzorbryce: doesn't this result in small flickering when changing screens?08:59
glatzorpitti: hello08:59
pittihi glatzor!08:59
glatzorbryce: you could also disable the combo box.09:00
bryceglatzor: for LCD's (which is what I took the screenshot on) 60 Hz is fine09:00
bryceglatzor: true...09:01
glatzorbryce: flicking of the user interface, since it has to replace a widget when you select a different monitor in left chooser09:01
bryceglatzor: oh, no it's perfectly solid09:01
bryceI need to figure out how to do screencasts or something09:02
=== hunger_t_ is now known as hunger
glatzorbryce: what is the primary status? does the applet move the panels to a different screen when it is set?09:03
glatzorbryce: I would be careful with the same-as position, since it requires that the screens have got the same resolution09:04
glatzorbryce: that is why I had three radio buttons (disable, extend, clone)09:05
bryceglatzor: the 'primary' is basically what I'm calling an output that other outputs are relative to09:05
bryceglatzor: however it's been proving ornery in the coding so I'm not sure having a 'primary' screen adds that much09:05
bryceglatzor: yes you're right about the same-as (aka clone or mirror).  It probably will take a lot of testing to get right.09:06
glatzorbryce: how do handle the virtual size issue?09:08
bryceglatzor: right, that's a remaining issue09:08
bryceglatzor: I decided to focus on only non-xorg.conf changing functionality09:09
glatzorbryce: the other parts can perhaps never be done right :)09:09
bryceglatzor: my thought is to use a script or something attached to an Advanced button or something to update Virtual, but I'm ignoring it for now09:10
glatzoradvanced buttons are evil :)09:10
bryceyeah yeah09:11
brycewell ultimately (maybe xserver 1.5??) it'll become unnecessary to specify Virtual anyway09:11
glatzorbryce: perhaps a small check if the virtual size allows to display two displays could be added to the applet09:12
bryceglatzor: yup09:12
brycealso since increasing virtual often results in forcing DRI/Compiz to have to be turned off, I thought a popup dialog warning the user might be of value09:13
glatzorbryce: indeed09:13
RAOFbryce: Thinking of xrandr, do drivers other than nouveau suffer from http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14394 ?09:13
ubotuFreedesktop bug 14394 in Driver/nouveau "[NV4B] Composite broken on 2nd head" [Normal,New]09:13
RAOFThe fact that the patch is against the X server makes me think so, and it's a really curious bug to run into.09:14
bryceinteresting09:15
bryceRAOF, for most typical multi-head systems (at least ones I've played with), compiz gets disabled entirely because you go beyond the Virtual limits09:15
RAOFbryce: But this kills metacity (& Kwin I think) too.09:15
bryceRAOF: hrm09:15
RAOFMetacity as of .8 uses the COW.09:16
tjaaltoncompiz 0.7 should have "multi-head support", but I'm not sure what it means here09:17
bryceRAOF, hmm, well this is a configuration I've not really tested myself much09:17
bryceRAOF, offhand it does sound driver-specific, but I don't really know; I've never run anything like this09:18
tjaaltonRAOF: have you tried the patch yet?09:18
stgrabermoin09:18
RAOFtjaalton: Not yet.  I mean to grab our X package and add the patch, but I haven't tried yet.09:18
mvo_tjaalton: this is really more about the window managment capabilities, those got improved a lot for multihead in compiz 0.709:19
RAOFbryce: I don't have a non-nvidia card handy to test, but if you've got an intel cand or somesuch that bug should be easy to trigger, if it exists.09:20
tjaaltonRAOF: hmm, I have an intel box next to me, and it could borrow the monitor from the Sunray terminal ;)09:21

pitticjwatson: do I need to pay attention to something special when I'll change the seeds for e. g. slocate -> mlocate?10:59
pitticjwatson: e. g. I guess I should add that to the platform.hardy branch?11:00
cjwatsonpitti: platform.hardy/desktop-common has dlocate11:02
cjwatsonerr, slocate11:02
cjwatsonso it makes sense to change that, along with ubuntu.hardy/server-ship11:02
cjwatsonalthough as I said on ubuntu-devel I think it ought to be in platform.hardy/standard really11:02
pitticjwatson: right; so changes in platform.hardy will be picked up by *-meta/running update, not by merging to the other *.hardy seeds?11:02
pitticjwatson: I agree about standard (and removing it from desktop and server-ship)11:03
pitticjwatson: hm, installing mlocate doesn't remove slocate11:04
cjwatsonpitti: changes> right11:04
cjwatsonpitti: yes, seems to be intentional to ease migration, although I see the problem you're raising11:05
pittiI don't see anything in /etc/cron.daily/slocate  that tests for mlocate presence11:05
cjwatsonpitti: however, we could fix this by changing slocate's cron job not to run if mlocate is there11:05
cjwatsonmuch like locate's cron job does11:06
pittiah, it sets the /etc/alternatives/updatedb to mlocate11:06
cjwatsonwell, sort of does, it checks whether it's been diverted11:06
cjwatson[ -e /usr/bin/updatedb.findutils ] || exit 011:06
cjwatsonpitti: yes, though /etc/cron.daily/slocate runs slocate explicitly11:07
cjwatsonso how about:11:08
cjwatson-if [ -x /usr/bin/slocate ]11:08
cjwatson+if [ -x /usr/bin/slocate ] && [ ! -x /usr/bin/mlocate ]11:08
cjwatsonthe only downside I can see is that it'll mean that running slocate explicitly won't work any more, but I'm not too concerned about that11:09
pittiwhy not simply add a Conflicts:/Replaces:?11:09
cjwatsonupdate-manager can deal with encouraging people to remove it, rather than requiring a hard Conflicts11:09
cjwatsonI don't like adding Conflicts arcs when we don't have to11:09
pittiit would mean to leave package cruft around11:10
mvo_sure, we can add it to the obsoleted packages11:10
pittibut right, I guess we'll demote slocate11:10
mvo_in update-manager11:10
pittiand then u-m will clean it up, right?11:10
cjwatsonpitti: I think update-manager is good enough, yeah11:10
pitti... checking rdepends ... right, slocate has no rdepends at all (except *-desktop)11:11
cjwatsonuploaded slocate with the above diff11:11
pittithanks11:11
mvo_cjwatson: I added slocate to the forced obsoletes, that means that for most people it will get removed (unless they object of course)11:12
cjwatsongreat, thanks11:12
pittiok, mlocate MIR looks good, thanks for the great and detailled review11:12
pitticjwatson: I'll do the seed changes, promotions, etc. now11:12
cjwatsonhooray11:13
pitticjwatson: I won't update *-meta yet, since the component changes need to get published first11:15
xivulonevand, heno, can you please apply the following patch to umenu? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/55953/11:16

pittiserver didn't depend on it so far either11:18
cjwatsonpitti: recommends, IMO11:20
cjwatsonI'm surprised it isn't already a recommends in desktop-common11:21

persiapochu: Maybe.  Something like 12:00 or 24:00 UTC would work as well.  I just want guidance on when to stop accepting UUS stuff that hasn't been pushed for FFe.13:00
cjwatsonpitti: the installer will warn and say that the CD doesn't contain full support for your language13:01
pittipersia: I don't think anyone will measure that precisely13:01
persiapitti: OK.  I won't fuss about it then, and just stop sponsoring when it stops being a reasonable "14th February" for me.  Thanks.13:01
pitticjwatson: oh, even if there is a language-pack-XX in the archive, but not a -support one?13:01
pittipersia: sounds pragmatic and appropriate13:02
pitticjwatson: well, I can leave them around for a while, they'll be practically orphaned13:02
cjwatsonpitti: the check is for what's on the CD13:03
cjwatsonpitti: in practice it'll always have fired for !en anyway13:03
cjwatsonpitti: so it might well not matter; it only does that check for CD installs13:04
pittiright, we'll retain language-support-en anyway13:04
cjwatsonI don't particularly mind if empty language-support-* go away13:04

MacSlowI need some MOTU-help13:27
MacSlowhow do I make sure a file gets installed in /usr/share/compizconfig, which has been added via a debian/patch/02_some.patch?13:28
MacSlowobviously adding the usual bits to Makefile.am and creating a 99_autoreconf.patch does not seem to be enough13:29
MacSlowhelp greatly appreciated13:29
persiaMacSlow: For MOTU-help, asking in #ubuntu-motu is a good idea.  You might find using debian/$(package).dirs to help, or debian/$(package).install, depending on the contents of your rules file.13:36

calcazeem: i heard you were going to be updating opensync in debian?15:13
azeemwell15:13
azeemif the upgrade path is reasonably clear, I would, yeah15:14
calcazeem: going from 0.19 -> 0.2x isn't clear?15:15
azeemno, both the database and the configuration format has changed15:16
calcazeem: hmm15:17
azeemthere's now a configuration updater for 0.3x, but I haven't tested it15:17
calcmaybe put a debconf message saying its not backwards compat would work? 0.19 is 10 releases old15:17
azeemit should be possible to just wipe the database and do a slow-sync15:17
azeemthat'd be the emergency cop-out maybe, yeah15:18
calcwell it hasn't been updated in 16 months...15:18
calcperhaps its a the DD doesn't want to do the extra work cop-out instead?15:19
* calc doesn't know the details of the work involved but 16 months is a relatively long time15:20
asaccalc: in which binary package is the openoffice firefox/mozilla plugin btw? i installed openoffice.org but don't see anything ooo related in /usr/lib/firefox/plugins15:21
calclooks like not much else uses the libraries, etc except opensync itself so its not a really nasty conversion15:21
azeemcalc: it's rather the DD hoped 0.40 would be ready in time for hardy cop-out15:21
calcazeem: ah i see :-)15:21

calcazeem: aiui part of it is holding up synce 0.11 upload, but i don't know the details (which was why i was asking about it)15:25
Mithrandirpitti: smart bookmarks in ff are quite fast ("us $packagename"), then one click to get to the latest build, then a click on a button per failed build.15:25

asaccalc: ok ... great. if you have questions let me know. maybe do a testbuild so we know that this is really pending15:26
azeemcalc: yeah right15:26
azeemcalc: I was rather asking, "If I don't upload today (missing FF), will somebody be able to get those packages synced for hardy still?"15:26
calcazeem: heh i just notice opensync is actually in main, so you would have to ask slangasek about that i guess15:33

ion_    gthumb | 3:2.10.6-0ubuntu3 | http://archive.ubuntu.com hardy/main Packages16:46
neighborleepitti, may I ask why16:46
neighborleeoh wait..cause fspot is enough ;)16:46
pittineighborlee: we ship f-spot by default and taught it about a 'destination directory' for import, which was deemed sufficient16:47
neighborleefspot has no animation support ..or so I h ear is that correct ? ( maybe this is wrong  venue to discuss this , but I wanted to verify)16:47
neighborleeand honetly I still think a patent discussion about mono is stil relevant isnt' it ?16:47
neighborleeor is that off limits16:47

neighborlee I dont feel good about that ;)16:49
neighborleeit is not.16:49

neighborleethe forum is a joke, as it wont get anywhere.16:49
neighborleedevs hang here typically.16:49
neighborleethough I dont kn ow h ow many of you know about the patent issues..or if im just not aware of the entirety of it all16:50
neighborleeit sounds like a mess to me.16:50
neighborleebut I dont want to come across like a complainning bitch either ;)16:50
pochuneighborlee: regarding those /patent issues/, that's not up to the devs, but to the archive admins. And I tried once f-spot and it looked nice to me, except that it copied all my pictures, but that's fixed now I believe.16:51
neighborleeit is nice visually16:51
neighborleebut IF what im told is right..16:51
neighborleeit has no animation ability16:51
neighborleegthumb does , or so in told.16:51
neighborleebut if they are going for 'visual' I guess I understand    ..but im still not sure about this patent crap it sounds very IFFY to me.16:52
slytherinneighborlee: By animation do you mean slideshow?16:52
neighborleebut I suppose this isn't quite the right venue :(16:52
neighborleeslytherin, no16:52

neighborleetypicallly I would agree16:54
neighborleeone would think ;)16:54
neighborleeassuming they are aware of all the ramifications.16:54
slytherinneighborlee: No. What I am saying is that if you use f-spot and really feel that it is inferior to ghtumb, sure go ahead and file a bug with all the points. As far as I am concerned f-spot rocks16:54
neighborleerocks is irrelevant16:55
neighborleedisk space,,memory consumptioin stabiloity and patent issues IMO loom largely16:55

cjwatsonneighborlee: if there are *real* patent issues to discuss, then let's discuss them on a case-by-case basis. But we cannot have a conversation about imponderable speculation.17:00
neighborleewell in part  think I worry about stability of mono aps..I mean just look what happened to beagle ,,it got replaced by  someething else..makes you wonder about mono apps in general if you ask me..and its not like there aren't alternatives to fspot and  tomboy both, but then trouble is half agree, and slightly over half agree mono shoudl be gone..at least the forum shows those numbers anyway..but then I undersgtand ubunt is a meritoc17:00

cjwatsonthe first step with this sort of thing is always to make it available as non-default so that people can try it out17:59
juliankmjg59: Many distributions switched from UnionFS to aufs, because unionFS was to unstable. They are happier with aufs noew17:59

ograhmm, yeah18:12
_MMA_juliank: What would being in Main do? Moving to Main for some things can mean more restrictions.18:17
juliank_MMA_: many users requested to have it installed by default. You should also see https://blueprints.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/easy-ndiswrapper18:18
_MMA_With the ability to pull from Universe, its not really necessary. Unless there is something in place that would stop Ubuntu from doing it.18:19

juliank_MMA_: Users would like to have it included on the CD, and AFAIK adding packages from universe is not possible. And its users need it configure their internet access, so they may not be able to get it from a mirror.18:26
_MMA_juliank: Adding packages from universe is now possible.18:27

juliankcjwatson, _MMA_: Having ndisgtk on Hardy disks (amd64+i386) would be cool.18:30
cjwatsonjuliank: I agree with you, am just too flat out to do anything about it myself. you only filed the main inclusion report two hours ago :)18:30
cjwatsonseriously, it's one thing core developers leaving things to the last minute (part of the nature of things), but when you need sponsorship and assistance from other people to make changes, turning up on feature freeze day is more optimistic than anything else18:31

seb128jamiemcc_: hi, do you plan to roll a new tracker tarball? the hardy feature freeze is now and we will likely review if we want to keep tracker enable for hardy, having a new version with svn bug fixes could be useful there21:12
jamiemcc_seb128: yeah I was planning for this weekend - can it wait that long?21:13
jamiemcc_seb128: its all bugfixes as there are no neew features at present21:14
seb128jamiemcc_: yes, we can always get freeze exceptions, no problem, having it next week would just be nice because we likely want to look at it soon21:16
bdmurrayAmaranth: Is there something we could look at / point to that would show the mappings? or is just guessing based of the plugin name effective enough?21:16
Amaranthbdmurray: I just do dpkg -S libfoo.so21:16
Amaranthwhere foo is the plugin name21:16
jamiemcc_seb128: yeah i understand - but we have to lots of testing before doing a release to help rpevent regressions21:16

mario_limonciellseb128, did you look at the bug that pitti commented on today regarding gmyth?21:17
seb128mario_limonciell: yeah, we discussed it on IRC, neither of us knew exactly what it brings21:17
bdmurrayAmaranth: right, my question is does the plugin name match up to what it is called in ccsm pretty well?21:18
seb128mario_limonciell: slomo pointed the gstreamer code doesn't work when using 0.7 or something I think?21:18
mario_limonciellseb128, it brings support to watch recordings via native protocol for myth21:18
seb128mario_limonciell: dunno what is myth, can you describe it from a newbie user point of view?21:18
mario_limonciellseb128, i've gotten things working at home doing a local build with gmyth integrated21:18
jamiemcc_seb128: we will try and tune things so its not noticeable by auto pausing when user is moving mouse or pressing keys21:18
mario_limonciellseb128, its a tv recording server21:19
mario_limonciellseb128, you schedule recordings, and then it does them for you21:19
Amaranthbdmurray: almost not at all, about half the time21:19
mario_limonciellseb128, there is a native viewer out there, but its a bit big.  so for casual usage on a secondary or tertiary machine, this is most ideal21:19

seb128mario_limonciell: because that looks like rather a small usecase and we have already lot to do, I don't want to maintain that for 3 years21:20
bdmurrayAmaranth: it looks like it is in the xml files21:20
Amaranthbdmurray: well, yeah21:21
mario_limonciellseb128, well its a "plugin" and off by default21:21
mario_limonciellso shouldn't hurt the majority of people21:21
Amaranthbdmurray: the name of the xml file is the name of the plugin, then inside there is the name that ccsm shows21:21
mario_limoncielli'll be glad to get myself and the rest of ~ubuntu-mythtv to triage related bugs though21:21
mario_limonciellespecially until gmyth is in debian (that's the eventual plan)21:21
bdmurrayAmaranth: okay that might help people out then21:21
seb128pitti: ^21:22

_Angelus_guys23:41
_Angelus_i wanted to know...23:41
_Angelus_do the developers know that the bootup splash doesnt work on 64bit computers?23:41
_Angelus_i mean...  on kubuntu 64bit23:41
ion_Is there a bug report? If not, please report it.23:43
mjg59There is, and it's not all 64 bit machines23:43
_Angelus_90% the problem is that ubuntu uses vesafb-tng instead of vesafb, vesafb-tng is not compatable with most 64bit computers23:44
_Angelus_there never was a fix , the only fix i found is, to compile a custom kernel, which worked fine...23:45
_Angelus_so probably this issue would be solved if the kernel compiled by ubuntu for 64bit systems would use vesafb..23:47
mjg59_Angelus_: Uh. No.23:48
mjg59We don't use vesafb-tng, and usplash doesn't use vesafb.23:48
mjg59It does vesa directly.23:48
_Angelus_hmm23:49
_Angelus_im reading a post from some german comunity23:49
mjg59The issue is in x86emu23:49
_Angelus_which have a fix23:49
mjg59_Angelus_: Well, it's wrong (I wrote usplash and the vesa code it uses)23:49
_Angelus_http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=4057740&postcount=323:49
_Angelus_it says that gutsy by default doesnt load vesafb? :/23:49
_Angelus_and its blacklisted?23:49
mjg59Yes, we don't use a framebuffer by default23:49
mjg59By default, usplash only uses a framebuffer on ppc23:50
_Angelus_i see23:50
mjg59We can't make the default setup use vesafb23:50
mjg59It interacts poorly with some graphics drivers and suspend/resume support23:50
faketanganyone here familiar with the installer for server, as in /usr/bin/main-menu on the disk's initrd?23:50
_Angelus_well, i will try to enable vesafb and the other 2modules listed in this guide and see if it solved the problam23:50
mjg59It'll probably work around the problem, but it won't solve it23:51
_Angelus_why would the bootup splash need x86emu?23:51
_Angelus_cant the bootup splash be compiled for x86_64 ? :/23:51
mjg59No, because you can't run 16-bit code on a 64-bit kernel23:53

mjg59It's just some recent ones where the video BIOS triggers bugs in x86emu23:56
_Angelus_i see23:57
_Angelus_mjg59: if this guide im trying works and solves the issue, is there somewhere where i can post it so people with the same problem find it with ease?23:57
faketangcrimsun_: I have no main-menu in any my repos (main/restricted/universe/multiverse); I have seen that debconf paper, but it doesn't explain how to modify the installer23:59
mjg59_Angelus_: Not really. This will almost certainly be fixed by hardy release - I just haven't had time to write the appropriate debug code yet23:59
