| dashua | slomo, ping. | 01:59 |
| jdong | Ng: talk to Mithrandir, I can't upload it anyway :) | 02:52 |
| joshudson | Here's something interesting: the old procedure documentented in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FeistyUpgradesManual almost works for upgrading fiesty to hardy | 03:11 |
| joshudson | I have exact directions if someone can tell me where to post them | 03:11 |
| _MMA_ | joshudson: Why not edit that page? | 03:12 |
| jdong | joshudson: you shouldn't really use the manual upgrade unless the system is already too broken to run the standard upgrader | 03:13 |
| ScottK | Please don't | 03:13 |
| ScottK | Please don't put instructions on h.u.c on how to do things that are explicitly not supported. | 03:13 |
| jdong | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades | 03:13 |
| joshudson | It draws less bandwidth then trying to upgrade version by version | 03:13 |
| jdong | THESE are the ONLY UPGRADE PROCEDURES that should be attempted | 03:14 |
| jdong | all others are completely unsupported | 03:14 |
| ScottK | !worksforme | joshudson | 03:14 |
| ubotu | joshudson: Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability. Please see http://geekosophical.net/random/worksforme/ | 03:14 |
| jdong | you are on your own if something goes wrong before, during, or after the upgrade. | 03:14 |
| ScottK | So please don't encourage others to go off the supported path. | 03:14 |
| joshudson | all right, I won't | 03:14 |
| jdong | there's a *reason* we don't support hopping upgrades. and it's not because we get ad revenue from additional bandwidth to the apt repos | 03:15 |
| jdong | though I think that would be a great idea if we do adwords in apt-get and the revenue goes to jdong@ubuntu.com paypal. | 03:15 |
| joshudson | lol | 03:15 |
| ScottK | joshudson: I don't generally update the approved way and it almost always works for me, but I'd never encourage someone else to take the risks I take. | 03:15 |
| jdong | joshudson: then again, ScottK is a core developer and you are pobably an experienced Ubuntu user yourself who isn't afraid to get your hands dirty fixing minor upgrade breakages | 03:16 |
| joshudson | I'm not an experienced ubuntu developer | 03:16 |
| jdong | joshudson: but others might not be, and from my experience 90% of "upgrades are broken" whining are directly caused by users not following correct upgrade procedures | 03:16 |
| _MMA_ | jdong: "we don't support hopping upgrades" I haven't had 1 Dapper->Hardy test box work. :P | 03:16 |
| joshudson | This was my first upgrade (didn't have a GUI to try the normal procedure) | 03:17 |
| orbisvicis | why does ubuntu have a upgrade cycle ... why not just release newer packages as they come? | 03:17 |
| jdong | joshudson if you read HardyUpgrades, there are command line supported upgrade paths too | 03:17 |
| ScottK | joshudson: There's a command line option too. | 03:17 |
| joshudson | which isn't indexed by google yet btw | 03:17 |
| jdong | orbisvicis: because new packages often introduce changes that make them non-backwards-compatible | 03:17 |
| lifeless | orbisvicis: many users want stability | 03:17 |
| ScottK | orbisvicis: If you want that, just run Debian Unstable. | 03:17 |
| lifeless | orbisvicis: others want long term stability | 03:17 |
| lifeless | orbisvicis: and some want latest features | 03:18 |
| jdong | orbisvicis: a rolling release distro means every time you hit the upgrade button you have NO GUARANTEE that your existing config files or apps will continue to work without tweaking config files, rebuilding custom apps, etc | 03:18 |
| lifeless | orbisvicis: so we have releases, long term support releases, and development | 03:18 |
| jdong | orbisvicis: think about whether or not an administrator of 70 laptops used by 300 students daily, like me, would want that.... | 03:18 |
| joshudson | I'm a rather experienced slackware user. If something broke I could probably fix it, unless it was udev. | 03:19 |
| orbisvicis | jdong, i hadnt considered your last two statements, but i find stability an invalid argument, as users are often locked into packages with major bugs fixed in newer packages | 03:19 |
| jdong | joshudson: slackware teaches you to explore around and fix things | 03:20 |
| jdong | orbisvicis: then those bugs should be fixed. Frozen releases do not preclude bugfixes, we just ask bugfixes to be done as bugfixes only | 03:20 |
| jdong | orbisvicis: in open source projects, one can choose just to apply changes to the code directly pertinent to the bugs | 03:20 |
| jdong | orbisvicis: and as a member of the team that approves such bugfix updates, I encourage everyone to do this | 03:21 |
| joshudson | It was also the only non-rpm distro that didn't assume the user had broadband (everything is on 2 cds. I wish the default ubuntu installs did as good a job of picking packages) | 03:21 |
| joshudson | at least back when I started | 03:21 |
| lifeless | orbisvicis: stability means 'no new bugs', not 'no bugs' | 03:21 |
| jdong | orbisvicis: also, Ubuntu Backports can be used to provide new versions of stuff as long as it doesn't horribly break everything. and I am also a part of the team that approves those updates :) | 03:21 |
| joshudson | Did any of you every try apt-get install gcc after a fresh ubuntu install and wonder why gcc didn't work? | 03:22 |
| ScottK | joshudson: Keep in mind Ubuntu is squeezing into one CD, not two. | 03:22 |
| orbisvicis | hmm well i like browsing hardy source (even debian) and pulling packages from them, but why not provide a tool that does this automatically as the dependencies get tedious | 03:22 |
| joshudson | good point. Only the second cd on slackware has only kde and tex | 03:23 |
| RAOF | joshudson: You mean apt-get? :P | 03:23 |
| ScottK | orbisvicis: Because pakcages have to be rebuilt as the toolchain changes. | 03:23 |
| joshudson | yeah | 03:24 |
| joshudson | It turned out that gcc had some unstated dependency | 03:24 |
| ion_ | cjwatson: I updated the compcache packaging to use debconf to set the cache size. | 03:24 |
| joshudson | apt-get build-dep dash works | 03:24 |
| StevenK | It's assumed build-essential (or at least everything it depends on) is installed if you want to build things. | 03:25 |
| joshudson | also dpkg needs dependencies of gzip, bzip and tar (found that out when trying to get dpkg working on my slackware box) | 03:25 |
| orbisvicis | ScottK, toolchain? bison, gcc, make, etc ? | 03:25 |
| orbisvicis | or libraries | 03:25 |
| joshudson | ah that's why | 03:25 |
| joshudson | build-essential wasn't installed by default and I didn't know of its existance | 03:25 |
| StevenK | Because not everyone wants a build environment. :-) | 03:25 |
| jdong | orbisvicis: see prevu | 03:25 |
| jdong | orbisvicis: it's a one/two command tool for rebuilding source packages from the development release to run on the current release | 03:26 |
| joshudson | I've been around too long. I can't even imagine not wanting a build environment | 03:26 |
| StevenK | I can. It's called the server behind me. :-) | 03:27 |
| joshudson | g | 03:27 |
| joshudson | And I'd be screaming bloody murder if I discovered one of my servers didn't have it the first time I tried to compile my maintaince utils | 03:28 |
| orbisvicis | jdong, thanks | 03:28 |
| joshudson | (an ordinary sysadmin probably would use shell scripts but they barf on unsanatary file names) | 03:28 |
| orbisvicis | but i dont understand what ScottK meant though | 03:29 |
| jdong | yeah I'd rather *not* provide a build environment on a shell server :) | 03:29 |
| jdong | that's one of those "please root me now" invitations | 03:29 |
| jdong | might as well just add em to sudoers and save everyone time. | 03:29 |
| joshudson | if you are stock ubuntu, uudecode is enough to "root-me-now" | 03:29 |
| StevenK | That's news to me. | 03:30 |
| jdong | as to me. | 03:30 |
| joshudson | besides, some of my tools are still in assembly | 03:30 |
| jdong | good luck making it match the regex "/usr/rbin/* rixm" :) | 03:31 |
| jdong | ah, I love restricted shells | 03:31 |
| ScottK | orbisvicis: Packages are compiles using shared libraries from the packages they build on. If those shared libraries change, the packages need to be recompiled with the new version to be able to communicate properly. | 03:31 |
| joshudson | restricted shell, ewwww | 03:31 |
| jdong | what's wrong with a restricted shell? everything here on my machines runs in restricted contexts :) | 03:33 |
| jdong | even this irssi I'm typing from | 03:33 |
| jdong | 23:33 -!- Irssi: process 0 (uname -a) terminated with return code 126 | 03:33 |
| joshudson | it doesn't let the user take any advantage of writing so much as the simplest of automation scripts | 03:34 |
| jdong | why not? they've got access to perl, python, and their shell for scripting | 03:34 |
| StevenK | rbash by default will kick itself out of restricted mode in the shell it spawns to run shell scripts. | 03:35 |
| joshudson | are we talking about two different things? I'm talking about rbash and its ilk | 03:35 |
| jdong | joshudson: I use apparmor or SELinux to write restricted shell contexts | 03:35 |
| joshudson | oh, much better | 03:35 |
| orbisvicis | ScottK, i find that minor versions leave me a bit of leeway, and that ubuntu dependencies can take care of the rest (b/c i remove all current packages bottom up) | 03:35 |
| jdong | joshudson: the actual shell is usually a bash or zsh type | 03:35 |
| joshudson | I'm just accustomed to being able to edit myh .profile | 03:35 |
| ScottK | orbisvicis: It often works. Sometimes it doesn't. | 03:36 |
| jdong | orbisvicis: it's not guaranteed to work and I've screwed myself over several times with that assumption in the past | 03:36 |
| joshudson | I have no problems with most kinds of security settings on servers | 03:37 |
| joshudson | but the fundamental problem that rbash cannot allow the user to have his own .profile is enough to make me detest it | 03:38 |
| * orbisvicis testing the limits | 03:38 | |
| joshudson | (you see if it does, .profile can contain PATH=.$PATH) | 03:39 |
| ScottK | orbisvicis: You are quite welcome to do that. I use most of my Ubuntu machines for $WORK, so I have a different risk tolerance. | 03:39 |
| orbisvicis | which brings back to full circle > stability | 03:39 |
| jdong | joshudson: I typically don't like to play babysitter with shell accounts as it's always a game favoring the attacker... | 03:39 |
| orbisvicis | anyway, anyone notice that linux-image rt doesnt provide CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT | 03:40 |
| joshudson | jdong: exactly | 03:40 |
| jdong | joshudson: this particular usecase is primarily a SFTP filesharing account on one of my lower-security VMs and giving shell access facilitates the kind of organization work needed to be done | 03:40 |
| jdong | joshudson: I've found Apparmor has made it a lot easier for me to quickly define restricted profiles that seem fairly strong to me | 03:40 |
| jdong | it'd probably take a kernel-level exploit like the vmsplice one, custom crafted, to break out. | 03:41 |
| joshudson | My favorite is the /home in chrootjail trick (I spawn a sshd in the chroot jail with passwd, ping, and tracert as the only setuid binaries in the jail) | 03:42 |
| orbisvicis | zcat /proc/config.gz | grep CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT | 03:42 |
| orbisvicis | gzip: /proc/config.gz: No such file or directory | 03:42 |
| jdong | orbisvicis: we don't build with config.gz in /proc, use the config files in /boot instead | 03:43 |
| orbisvicis | gotcha | 03:43 |
| orbisvicis | hm i shouldve known that from last time copying the config to rebuild a module | 03:45 |
| slangasek | LaserJock: I don't believe we should need the FFe process for edubuntu documentation, no | 03:47 |
| slangasek | mario_limonciell: there's been a change to the contents of DVD images, yes - you needed gawk? | 03:47 |
| slangasek | mario_limonciell: we can probably get gawk added back, I think - the change is that the DVD no longer ships .debs for all of the supported seed, to make room for a much-expanded livefs with full translations | 03:48 |
| slangasek | laga: having a look at the debiancd stuff | 03:50 |
| Frederick | folks have anyone here ever used hibernate relational persistence for java in ubuntu? isnt there a package for it? | 04:06 |
| twb | I notice that my Ubuntu mirror (and archive.ubuntu.com, I believe) isn't using the rred method to send pdiffs instead of having to resend the whole Packages.gz file with each apt-get update. Is rred support on a roadmap or something? | 04:26 |
| LaserJock | twb: I'm sure there is a spec on that somewhere | 04:29 |
| pleaseandthankyo | can i install ubuntu edubun xunbu kubuntu at the same time? | 05:05 |
| LaserJock | usually I think so | 05:09 |
| pleaseandthankyo | ok installed xubuntu and and goubuntu on top of edubuntu where are they now? and how do i load them? | 05:59 |
| LaserJock | well, for xubuntu you just select Xfce as the Session in the login screen | 06:01 |
| LaserJock | and yeah, probably #ubuntu is the place for these questions | 06:02 |
| pleaseandthankyo | LaserJock what about go ubuntu | 06:02 |
| LaserJock | well, there's not going to really be a difference between it and ubuntu that you will notice | 06:03 |
| pleaseandthankyo | how can i load goubuntu? | 06:06 |

| asac | slangasek: someone confirmed that iwl3945 works with hidden SSID on my NM branch. however, i saw that benc set the kernel part (scan_capa in iwl*) to fix committed. | 07:55 |
| asac | slangasek: unfortunately he didn't drop a comment, so i am not sure if its just the latest iwl driver he committed or if he verified that it has scan_capa | 07:55 |
| asac | slangasek: i will try to get in touch with him before uploading the ap_scan ... if it really has scan_capa we should try to not tweak the iwl chipsets | 07:56 |

| slangasek | oh, n/m | 07:58 |
| asac | slangasek: yes. my branch surely worksaround the issue | 07:58 |
| asac | but i'd like to not workaround if the kernel module has scan_capa support now | 07:58 |
| slangasek | IMHO it would be nice to have the workaround in place immediately since the kernel isn't uploaded yet, and users may not reboot to it immediately after it becomes available | 07:59 |
| slangasek | (I expect it'll be another ABI-changing upload) | 07:59 |
| asac | agreed, otoh it gets even harder to get feedback on the a nm without the workaround once the kernel modueles are available | 07:59 |
| slangasek | suer | 08:00 |
| slangasek | sure | 08:00 |
| slangasek | if I can figure out how to get into my AP, I could do plenty of testing for iwl3945 | 08:00 |

| asac | slangasek: ok. looking at the code the iwl code tweak will not be used anymore once they have scan_capa support. | 08:01 |
| asac | so it should be safe | 08:01 |
| slangasek | ok | 08:01 |

| slangasek | well, I did two uploads today and I didn't notice problems with either of them | 08:05 |

| Fujitsu | Spontaneous Intel video crashes? | 08:59 |
| Fujitsu | Mine's been more stable than ever over the past couple of weeks. | 08:59 |
| soren | I haven't had it crash on me for a while, too. | 08:59 |
| slangasek | I have a bug with mine that only showed up recently; just had the third crash in as many weeks | 08:59 |
| Fujitsu | Up until about 3 weeks ago, I had the occasional Compiz hang, but it's all good now. | 09:00 |
| bryyce | slangasek: it's still waiting on someone to do git bisecting. Which of course is a PITA since the bug occurs so sporadically | 09:00 |
| slangasek | bah :/ | 09:00 |
| bryyce | "X crashes randomly" bugs are the bane of my existence | 09:00 |
| soren | Oh, mine didn't just hang. It crashed. And X wouldn't start again. | 09:00 |
| Fujitsu | soren: Ah, I had those in the first couple of months of Hardy. | 09:01 |
| slangasek | soren: yes, that's what I have: "FatalError re-entered, aborting" -> "Existing errors found in hardware state" | 09:01 |
| pitti | cjwatson, evand: hm, after rebooting the desktop CD again, the new partitions appear in /dev and all is well; hmm | 09:01 |
| bryyce | slangasek: if it happens and you can ssh in and attach gdb and get a full backtrace, that may help. However sounds like upstream is insisting on doing bisecting to find the issue. | 09:03 |
| slangasek | bryyce: but once it happens, the X server is dead, I would have to attach with gdb beforehand...? | 09:04 |
| slangasek | I've never done a git bisect before, can you give me a pointer to the right repo and a cheat sheet for running the bisect? | 09:05 |
| bryyce | if its crashing to the command line, yeah. In other cases where it freezes or hangs, you can often ssh in to get a backtrace. | 09:06 |
| slangasek | yeah, this is the X server aborting altogether | 09:06 |
| slangasek | and only kinda-sorta crashing to the commandline, since it leaves the video in an unusable state which requires a reboot | 09:06 |
| bryyce | man git-bisect has the best docs on it. the repo can be checked out from gitweb.freedesktop.org | 09:07 |
| bryyce | hrm | 09:07 |

| slangasek | ok, cheers | 09:11 |
| tjaalton | slangasek: if you have older kernels handy you could try booting -8 and see if it crashes the same way | 09:12 |
| slangasek | I don't | 09:12 |
| tjaalton | bummer | 09:12 |
| slangasek | to the extent that it correlates with any change on my system, though, it seems to correlate with me wiping out my old xorg.conf and regenerating a clean one | 09:13 |
| slangasek | OTOH, maybe I did that after it crashed the first time :-P | 09:13 |
| bryyce | well, some of the stuff we've fiddled with recently includes setting "greedy" migration mode for EXA, turning EXA on by default, and adding a few minor patches | 09:18 |
| tjaalton | we've had 2.2.1 for a month now | 09:18 |
| tjaalton | and EXA has been the default since November :) | 09:18 |
| bryyce | well, I mean in the sense that if he had an old xorg.conf that was setting XAA, then our EXA by default might have kicked in when he wiped out his old xorg.conf | 09:20 |
| tjaalton | yeah, sure | 09:20 |
| slangasek | bryyce: the old xorg.conf didn't set XAA explicitly; the only difference I can see is loading GLcore and v4l modules | 09:29 |

| ogra_cmpcng | mjg59, hey ... i got a new classmate here, having an issue with the brightness on resume ... do you know any way i can trigger a brightness up event on a i915 (works all fine but io have to hit a brightness key to get backlight after resume) | 12:43 |
| mjg59 | ogra_cmpcng: Which kernel version? | 12:43 |
| ogra_cmpcng | yesterdays ... let me look for the exact version | 12:44 |
| ogra_cmpcng | 2.6.24-12-generic | 12:44 |
| mjg59 | ogra_cmpcng: Ok. How are you suspending? | 12:45 |
| ogra_cmpcng | i dont use any intel xserver (using vesa to get the panning mode) though | 12:45 |
| mjg59 | Ugh. | 12:45 |
| ogra_cmpcng | mjg59, gpm | 12:45 |
| mjg59 | Please try with the intel x server | 12:45 |
| ogra_cmpcng | i cant | 12:45 |
| mjg59 | Please try with the intel x server | 12:45 |
| ogra_cmpcng | i mean iu can for a test | 12:45 |
| ogra_cmpcng | but not constantly (no panning in intel, i810 which does panning eats half of my ram ...) | 12:46 |
| pitti | mjg59: ah, indeed; that should become a /etc/pm/sleep.d/ script, I suppose? | 12:48 |
| mjg59 | pitti: /usr/share, ideally | 12:49 |
| pitti | ah, right | 12:49 |
| ogra_cmpcng | mjg59, ok, intel works, anything i can hack up to get vesa do the same ? | 12:52 |
| mjg59 | ogra_cmpcng: Not really, no | 12:58 |
| ogra_cmpcng | hmm | 12:59 |
| ogra_cmpcng | how does gpm do the brightness switching without having a sysfs socket or anything in proc ... i only need a single trigger it seems ... that could well go into a pm utils hook | 13:00 |
| * ogra_cmpcng goes to look at gpm code | 13:00 | |
| mjg59 | ogra_cmpcng: Is there anything in /sys/class/backlight? | 13:00 |
| ogra_cmpcng | nope | 13:00 |
| mjg59 | Then gpm shouldn't be able to do any brightness control | 13:01 |
| ogra_cmpcng | thats my prob else i'd just echo something to it :) | 13:01 |
| ogra_cmpcng | hmm | 13:01 |
| ogra_cmpcng | changing power changes backlight ... i wonder if thats bios based then | 13:01 |
| mjg59 | Yes | 13:02 |
| ogra_cmpcng | vbetool vbestate save/restore seems to get me something but that seems way to hackish | 13:03 |
| mjg59 | That should be happening by default in any case | 13:03 |
| mjg59 | Oh, wait, it won't on i915 | 13:03 |
| evand | davmor2: where does it fail? | 13:03 |
| mjg59 | Hm. It sounds like the DRM code isn't restoring the backlight register. | 13:03 |

| slangasek | pitti: I've never been a heavy bash-completion user, so I don't have a strong opinion... I remember cjwatson being opposed to it though | 16:33 |
| slangasek | asac: why is it that it should be dropped, then? is the existing firefox theme already ubuntuized...? | 16:35 |

| slangasek | mario_limonciell: hmm, so I can't actually see where gawk was being included on the DVD image before | 16:47 |
| mario_limonciell | slangasek, yeah I didn't either. was it a fluke that it was somehow coming as a recommends to gawk-doc or somethign? | 16:47 |
| slangasek | gawk isn't seeded directly anywhere, nor was it before the addition of the dvd seed; and it's only a build-dep of various packages | 16:47 |
| slangasek | gawk-doc doesn't recommend it either, I looked for that | 16:48 |
| slangasek | but obviously it makes no sense to ship gawk-doc on there *without* gawk... | 16:48 |
| mario_limonciell | :) | 16:48 |
| mario_limonciell | Is quilt still on the disk? It was coming before to satisfy <awk> for a quilt depend I thought | 16:49 |
| slangasek | er, there's really no reason it should've done that, awk is part of essential and should always be satisfied by mawk long before gawk is looked at | 16:50 |
| slangasek | sorry, awk is "virtually essential" - it's a virtual package, depended on by base-files | 16:50 |
| slangasek | pitti: is elisa still on your radar, btw? | 16:52 |
| laga | bah, use mythtv ;) | 16:54 |
| mario_limonciell | slangasek, take a look at http://people.ubuntu.com/~ubuntu-archive/cd-build-logs/ubuntu/hardy/dvd-20080318.log | 16:54 |
| mario_limonciell | "* Chose gawk out of awk to satisfy quilt" | 16:54 |
| pitti | slangasek: what's still wrong with it? | 16:54 |
| slangasek | mario_limonciell: yep, a peek at the gutsy seed shows it being pulled into main via quilt - because quilt used to depend explicitly on gawk | 16:55 |
| pitti | slangasek: it's gone from http://people.ubuntu.com/~ubuntu-archive/testing/hardy_probs.html since yesterday | 16:55 |
| slangasek | pitti: oh, ok :) | 16:55 |
| slangasek | pitti: I was just looking at the CD report, which obviously lags | 16:55 |
| pitti | slangasek: ah, if you mean today's DVD report, it's probably just lagging behind | 16:55 |
| pitti | :) | 16:55 |
| slangasek | mario_limonciell: so the question is... what pulled in quilt? | 16:56 |
| slangasek | pitti: is there anything different about "supported" that would have caused build-dependencies to also be pulled onto the DVDs? | 16:57 |
| mario_limonciell | installer dependencies it claims? So maybe one of the udebs that lived in ubiquity | 16:57 |
| slangasek | er? | 16:57 |
| mario_limonciell | but then again that is a lot of -dev packages that were pulled. you're right that it was probably build depends doing it | 16:58 |
| pitti | slangasek: not that I know of | 16:58 |
| slangasek | well, I don't think it's a loss to have build-depends off of there in general | 16:58 |

| mjg59 | saivann: Without the knowledge X has, I don't think there's anything we can do to fix this | 19:07 |
| mjg59 | saivann: So the closest to a solution right now will still be writing the file from ubiquity | 19:07 |

| soren | Fujitsu: How do you see that the CPU is mostly in IOWAIT? | 21:34 |
| Fujitsu | soren: multiload-applet | 21:35 |
| \sh | Fujitsu: try iostat | 21:35 |
| Fujitsu | It does freeze after a while, but before it dies I can see the load shooting up, and the IOWAIT colour filling the CPU box. | 21:35 |
| soren | Fujitsu: apt-cache doesn't know anything about that? | 21:35 |
| Fujitsu | soren: It's the GNOME panel system monitor applet. | 21:36 |
| Fujitsu | Installed by default, I believe. | 21:36 |
| soren | Fujitsu: Ah. | 21:36 |
| jdong | what's up with Ubuntu and unionfs vs aufs? | 21:36 |
| jdong | I know our livecds use unionfs | 21:37 |
| jdong | but everyone in $blogworld says that aufs is better? | 21:37 |
| \sh | Fujitsu: the system monitor ? | 21:37 |
| Fujitsu | \sh: That's it. | 21:37 |
| \sh | Fujitsu: hmmm...I don't see iowait counters...not even in the preferences | 21:38 |
| Fujitsu | \sh: It's the system monitor applet, not gnome-system-monitor. | 21:39 |
| Fujitsu | iowait is represented by a very dark blue on the CPU box. | 21:39 |
| \sh | na now it's light green ;) | 21:40 |
| \sh | Fujitsu: so your dark blue graph goes up? | 21:41 |
| Fujitsu | \sh: It's not dark blue for me either, but yes. | 21:41 |
| \sh | fun part: iostat doesn't show any iowait stats with rt kernel | 21:44 |
| ogra_cmpc | jdong, that might actually be but is nothing for hardy | 21:45 |
| ogra_cmpc | most of the tools like casper etc have aufs support but dont enable/use it by default | 21:45 |
| \sh | Fujitsu: I'll do some tests tomorrow morning in the company.../me needs to hit the bed now. | 21:47 |
| Fujitsu | \sh: Night. | 21:48 |
| \sh | cu tomorrow | 21:48 |

| mjg59 | ogra_cmpc: Hm. Intel have a couple of ideas about the backlight - I may have some kernel patches for you tomorrow | 21:52 |
| ogra_cmpc | mjg59, yay ! | 21:53 |
| ogra_cmpc | you rock | 21:53 |
| ogra_cmpc | :) | 21:53 |
| * ogra_cmpc wants a --no-progress option in mksquashfs ... damned ... | 21:58 | |
| ogra_cmpc | makes every log unreadable | 21:58 |
| slangasek | --republican-health-care? | 21:59 |
| ogra_cmpc | heh | 21:59 |
| ogra_cmpc | we use it in so many places that get logged, i wonder why nobody patched it yet | 22:00 |
| slangasek | I never thought about it until you mentioned :) | 22:00 |
| ion_ | When might cjwa-tson return? | 22:03 |
| mario_limonciell | ogra_cmpc, perhaps 1>&3 or something so that it's not showing any output | 22:04 |
| ogra_cmpc | ion_, next week | 22:04 |
| ion_ | ogra: Thanks | 22:04 |
| ogra_cmpc | mario_limonciell, i actually want the rest of the output | 22:04 |
| mario_limonciell | oh | 22:04 |
| mjg59 | ogra_cmpc: BTW, using -vesa will decrease battery life | 22:05 |
| ogra_cmpc | just not the progressbar that makes it impossible to read it in a pager like less | 22:05 |
| ogra_cmpc | mjg59, it frees up about 40M of ram | 22:06 |
| mjg59 | No framebuffer compression, no clock gating, chip ends up doing much more work | 22:06 |
| ogra_cmpc | vesa vs i810 | 22:06 |
| mjg59 | ogra_cmpc: Disabling gl in -i810 should free up most of that | 22:06 |
| ogra_cmpc | hmm | 22:06 |
| mjg59 | It'll allocate much more RAM in order to have back buffers and so on | 22:06 |
| ogra_cmpc | you mean patch it ? | 22:06 |
| mjg59 | But -i810 isn't going to be much better than -vesa from a power point of view | 22:07 |
| ogra_cmpc | performance is actually not much different between the two | 22:07 |
| ogra_cmpc | not even with video playback | 22:07 |
| ogra_cmpc | or flash | 22:08 |
| mjg59 | Wurgh. Having an overlay enging will make a huge difference if you scale anything | 22:08 |
| mjg59 | Flash will be much the same speed on everything, yes | 22:08 |
| ogra_cmpc | where should i scale to ? i have 800x480 .... | 22:08 |
| ogra_cmpc | thats either maximized/fullscreen or not ... | 22:09 |
| mjg59 | ogra_cmpc: Anything other than the native size of the video | 22:15 |
| ogra_cmpc | right, but the difference will be rather small on that screensize ... | 22:16 |
| === RAOF_ is now known as RAOF | ||
| ogra_cmpc | do you think setting DRI to false in xorg.conf is sufficient to get rid of gl in ram ? | 22:16 |
| ogra_cmpc | patching the driver would mean i need to put it in a ppa ... not really what i want | 22:19 |
| crimsun | \sh_away: not a bug, but certainly counterintuitive. Do you have suggestions for exposing the selection in a different fashion? | 22:29 |
| === FliesLikeABrick_ is now known as FliesLike|lap | ||
| ogra_cmpc | mjg59, did i say that you rule already ? Option DRI false gains me 50M with i810 :D | 22:54 |
| ogra_cmpc | ending up with 3M more free ram than with vesa actually | 22:54 |
| mjg59 | ogra_cmpc: Ha | 22:55 |
| mjg59 | ogra_cmpc: How about the backlight? (not optimistic, but always possible) | 22:56 |
| TheMuso | 5~/c | 22:56 |
| ogra_cmpc | i'll try | 22:56 |
| ogra_cmpc | nope, still needs a poke with the brightness key | 22:57 |
| Fujitsu | Do I blame -ati if I don't get correct resolution detection using it? | 22:57 |
| tjaalton | Fujitsu: yes | 22:58 |
| tjaalton | Fujitsu: generally so | 22:59 |
| Fujitsu | tjaalton: THanks. | 22:59 |
| Fujitsu | tjaalton: Do I want to include the output of get-edid or similar? | 23:02 |
| tjaalton | Fujitsu: that would be nice, and the logfile | 23:03 |
| Fujitsu | tjaalton: Will do. | 23:03 |
| asac | slangasek: yes. | 23:15 |
| asac | slangasek: its just .desktop file from what i can see | 23:15 |
| asac | (or better from what i remember) | 23:15 |
| slangasek | asac: ok, proposed patch in the bug; I could upload that if you like | 23:21 |
| asac | slangasek: i can do tht tomorrow ... when uploading the ap_scan branch | 23:22 |
| asac | i hoped for more feedback, but i think its now going up | 23:22 |
| neutrinomass | At the risk of being slightly offtopic, will ubuntu participate in this year's SoC ? | 23:24 |
| mjg59 | No | 23:24 |
| * asac off for bed | 23:24 | |
| neutrinomass | Ok, thanks | 23:25 |
| slangasek | asac: ok then; I just figured that since they're separate source packages, some parallelization might be in order :) | 23:25 |
| slangasek | asac: 'night! | 23:25 |
| ogra_cmpc | hmm | 23:26 |
| asac | slangasek: oh right ... its applet. feel free to go ahead then (if you remember to update the bzr branch) | 23:26 |
| asac | thanks and night | 23:26 |
| ogra_cmpc | isnt visudo supposed to use $EDITOR or the editor alternative ? | 23:29 |
| ogra_cmpc | ah, no its explicitly now | 23:31 |
