| dholbach | good morning | 05:45 |
| TheMuso | /c | 06:05 |
| dholbach | does seahorse's gpg agent work for anybody in intrepid? | 06:05 |
| dholbach | it works fine in hardy for me, but not in intrepid | 06:05 |
| tseliot | dholbach: maybe you're experiencing a problem with gnome's keyring | 06:06 |
| tseliot | did you do a "ssh-add"? | 06:06 |
| dholbach | tseliot: not that I remember | 06:08 |
| dholbach | it's a KVM instance (if that matters) | 06:08 |
| dholbach | I have to type in my gpg passphrase everytime - this sucks :) | 06:08 |
| tseliot | after doing that the problem with the gnome keyring should go away | 06:09 |
| tseliot | as regards having to type your password every time, do you use gpg-agent? | 06:09 |
| nxvl | i always type my passphrase | 06:10 |
| nxvl | i don;t trust password managers | 06:10 |
| nxvl | :D | 06:10 |
| tseliot | dholbach: I meant gnupg-agent | 06:10 |
| dholbach | tseliot: AFAIK seahorse is a gpg agent | 06:11 |
| dholbach | at least it was in hardy | 06:11 |
| dholbach | seahorse-agent is missing from intrepid - hm | 06:12 |
| nxvl | as a standard answer | 06:12 |
| nxvl | dholbach: file a bug on launchpad against seahorse | 06:13 |
| nxvl | :P | 06:13 |
| dholbach | from seahorse changelog: debian/seahorse.Xsession: remove this one since seahorse-agent has been moved to a different source | 06:14 |
| nxvl | dholbach: there is the answer | 06:15 |
| dholbach | it's not a full answer - which different source? :) | 06:15 |
| nxvl | dholbach: ask seb | 06:16 |
| nxvl | dholbach: or slomo | 06:17 |

| pitti | Riddell: right, I still have troubles with the retracers, p-lp-bugs...; I'll enable apport again by default as soon as this is sorted out | 08:02 |
| Hobbsee | pitti! | 08:04 |
| tjaalton | please don't upgrade your xserver-xorg-core just yet ;) | 08:05 |

| pitti | Hobbsee!!! | 08:06 |
| Hobbsee | :) | 08:06 |
| RAOF | tjaalton: Full of lack of working? | 08:06 |
| tjaalton | mouse&kbd won't work with current xorg.conf | 08:06 |
| tjaalton | autoconfig fails for some reason | 08:06 |
| RAOF | That could be a small problem, yes. | 08:06 |
| Hobbsee | ouch | 08:07 |
| tjaalton | just more the reason to turn input-hotplug on ;) | 08:07 |
| RAOF | What's the status of synaptics visa vis not requiring SHMConfig in xorg.conf to be useful? | 08:07 |
| tjaalton | pitti: btw, there's a better solution to the i-h fdi thingy. ajax patched hal-set-property to support --direct, which means that a callout script works now. that means that there's no need to generate an fdi file anymore | 08:08 |
| Hobbsee | that reminds me. i should file a bug about the vertical scrolling detection, or lack of it, on a default install. | 08:08 |
| tjaalton | RAOF: input properties, in xserver master | 08:08 |
| RAOF | tjaalton: Woot! | 08:08 |
| pitti | tjaalton: what does --direct do? | 08:09 |
| tjaalton | RAOF: but needs driver support for it. think xrandr but for input devices | 08:09 |
| RAOF | tjaalton: Relatively easy changes to make? | 08:10 |
| tjaalton | pitti: it allows to set the value before the dbus connection works. I played with that approach long ago, but couldn't make it to work because hal complained that the dbus connection was not available | 08:10 |
| tjaalton | RAOF: no idea.. | 08:10 |
| RAOF | Heh. Oh, well. Huzzah for X slowly reducing my personal peeves. Next thing you know you'll be able to resize the framebuffer at runtime! | 08:11 |

| pitti | tjaalton: sure, or just commit it to the bzr branch | 08:37 |
| pitti | but if you are more happy with a diff and want me to review, fine for me | 08:37 |
| tjaalton | pitti: ok, will do. I guess it's easier to just turn input-hotplug on to fix the mouse/kbd problems :) | 08:38 |
| pitti | tjaalton: I just promoted xinput, so please feel to add dependencies to it | 08:39 |
| tjaalton | pitti: ok, cool | 08:40 |
| pitti | tseliot: did you see the FTBFS of nvidia-173? | 08:40 |
| Hobbsee | tjaalton: any ETA for a fix on that no-keyboard bug? | 08:42 |
| tjaalton | Hobbsee: a couple of hours | 08:42 |
| Hobbsee | tjaalton: cool :)( | 08:42 |
| tjaalton | Hobbsee: or just add 'Option "AllowEmptyInput" "false" to ServerFlags section | 08:42 |
| tjaalton | it's the commit that enabled that by default which broke it | 08:42 |
| tjaalton | and because ServerLayout doesn't have the devices listed, epic fail | 08:43 |
| Hobbsee | tjaalton: ahh. | 08:44 |
| tjaalton | but that's needed in order to have a minimal config for input-hotplug, so.. | 08:45 |
| tseliot | pitti: no, I didn't notice the failure | 08:46 |

| pitti | tseliot: right, you can get it from the web ui | 08:48 |
| StevenK | pitti: Ah, okay, so I should vacuum up some of the real NBS things and kill them off? | 08:48 |
| tseliot | pitti: heck the NVIDIA installer was not executable. Weird it is here | 08:48 |
| pitti | StevenK: that would be awesome | 08:48 |
| pitti | tseliot: maybe just add a chmod to debian/rules, for more robustness? | 08:49 |

| pitti | but the original fix is a regression for someone else, so I think it still belongs together? | 09:06 |
| pitti | seb128: how about I disable g-v-m's autophoto command, and then I unseed it? or do you still see a reason to install g-v-m by default? | 09:06 |
| seb128 | I'm not sure that's the fix which created the regression, was his case working before? | 09:06 |
| pitti | before it auto-converted aac to mp3 allegedly | 09:07 |
| seb128 | and I'm not a big fan of having a zillions comments on a bug, I usually prefer having clear new bugs about new issues | 09:07 |

| fabbione | soren: oh yeah.. nice.. | 11:46 |
| mdz | pitti: the other thing I meant to bring up in that thread was that some more general syntactic sugar would be nice...can we make 'ubuntu-bug linux' DTRT rather than requiring a flag? | 11:46 |
| mdz | pitti: then it would be as simple as reportbug | 11:46 |
| pitti | mdz: so if it's an int, regard it as a PID, otherwise as a package name? | 11:47 |
| pitti | sure | 11:47 |
| tseliot | pitti: I wrote a patch so as to make them compile with kernel 2.6.26 but they still won't work with the new Xorg API | 11:47 |
| mdz | pitti: yeah, that sounds reasonable | 11:47 |
| fabbione | pitti, tseliot: i doubt you can anything directly to the nvidia driver. AFAIR the requirement for tha symbol is in the userland binary blob | 11:48 |
| fabbione | so unless you want to patch X to readd that symbol, there is nothing you can do | 11:48 |
| tseliot | fabbione: you're right. I'm waiting for NVIDIA to add the support for the new X to their legacy drivers | 11:49 |
| mdz | pitti: we probably only need one of ProcVersionSignature and RunningKernelVersion, no? | 11:49 |
| mdz | pitti: and ProcVersion is not very interesting if they're running an Ubuntu kernel | 11:50 |
| pitti | mdz: with an upstream kernel we won't have /proc/version_signature, but right, we should just have one | 11:50 |
| Riddell | asac: are you going to upload network-manager 0.7 sometime? | 11:52 |
| mdz | pitti,BenC,bdmurray,ogasawara: FYI, the [modified: blah] spam is bug 250511, which should be fixed to avoid similar spam in every apport bug for the kernel | 11:53 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 250511 in linux "Package contains generated module maps" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/250511 | 11:53 |
| pitti | asac: wrt. n-m, next Thursday is alpha-4, so please don't wait until the last minute with such an intrusive change | 11:53 |
| mdz | pitti: I like the username/hostname anonymization, but it is a little strange because it is hard to tell that it is a placeholder | 11:54 |
| mdz | pitti: I wish we could use italics, but perhaps caps would be better than nothing | 11:54 |
| mdz | pitti: architecture info is duplicated a lot, too. I think we should try to trim down the bits which go in the bug description and make it easy to scan visually | 11:55 |
| pitti | mdz: I'll start with consolidating the four ProcVersion/Uname/RunningKVer fields | 11:56 |
| pitti | mdz: Architecture and PackageArchitecture make sense for normal packages, but not for the kernel, right | 11:57 |
| mdz | pitti: what's Architecture? the GNU arch? | 11:57 |
| mdz | pitti: SourcePackage: linux seems redundant | 11:57 |
| mdz | for the bug report anyway, it should of course be in the .crash | 11:58 |
| pitti | mdz: Architecture is dpkg --print-architecture, while PackageArchitecture comes from dpkg -s | 11:58 |
| pitti | mdz: i. e. i386 firefox .deb on amd64 system | 11:58 |
| pitti | and uname is the kernel | 11:58 |
| mdz | pitti: oh. then we should only include PackageArchitecture if it doesn't match Architecture | 11:58 |
| pitti | i. e. i386 system on amd64 kernel | 11:58 |
| mdz | I think as a rule of thumb it should try to filter out things which are default | 11:59 |
| mdz | that way, if something is changed or unexpected, it will be immediately visible | 11:59 |
| mdz | whereas when there is a lot of information which is usually irrelevant, we will tend to skip over it | 11:59 |
| pitti | right | 11:59 |
| pitti | hm, how can I tell (in sh), whether a string is a number? | 12:00 |
| pitti | ah, test "$x" -gt "0" exits with 2 | 12:00 |
| asac | Riddell: i am waiting for an ack from anyone using b43 driver | 12:03 |
| DRebellion | vorian, slangasek, just a note on monkeystudio - upstream says that they are already using the Qt Designer from the repositories. They will try to remove a few features and see if they can get QScintilla to work (they need a more up to date version than the repos). | 12:03 |
| asac | Riddell: that it works at all | 12:03 |
| asac | Riddell: fwiw, colin had a driver-issue, so once he is back ill get an ack from him that my patch in latest ~network-manager PPA works | 12:05 |
| mdz | pitti: not sure how portable that is; you could always do a regex or glob match | 12:08 |
| pitti | mdz: I don't actually rely on two; I use "if test "$1" -gt 0 2>/dev/null" | 12:09 |
| mdz | asac: I have a variety of weird problems on my laptop with the version in the PPA | 12:09 |
| mdz | asac: e.g. the applet not appearing | 12:09 |
| mdz | (even when it's running) | 12:09 |
| mdz | asac: just last night, it came up and told me I was connected to *both* the wired and wireless networks (both radio buttons filled) which seems wrong | 12:09 |
| mdz | pitti: sounds reasonable | 12:10 |
| mdz | pitti: maybe ProcEnviron should be an attachment | 12:11 |
| mdz | pitti: is ProblemType important in the bug report? if it includes the crash report, it's a crash, otherwise it's not. should be obvious | 12:12 |
| mdz | also it's in the subject | 12:12 |
| mdz | pitti: Date is probably not interesting for non-crashes, since it will be the same as the timestamp on the bug | 12:12 |
| pitti | mdz: there are a bunch of scripts which parse ProblemType, so I'd like to keep that | 12:13 |
| pitti | mdz: ProcEnviron> current default is that text values with >= 5 lines become attachments | 12:13 |
| mdz | pitti: wouldn't a tag be better for scripts? | 12:13 |
| pitti | just two lines are faster to visually parse than mini-attachments IMHO | 12:14 |
| mdz | there are already apport-bug and apport-crash, no? | 12:14 |
| mdz | pitti: true, but for 99% of bugs it is not relevant | 12:14 |
| pitti | mdz: it would complicate the scripts (since they don't use LP directly for portability), but it would be doable | 12:14 |
| mdz | pitti: perhaps PATH could be omitted if it's default? | 12:14 |
| pitti | ok, I'll think about all of the above | 12:15 |
| pitti | mdz: thanks for your feedback! | 12:16 |
| mdz | pitti: anytime | 12:18 |
| pitti | mdz: ok, committed the ubuntu-bug argument sugar | 12:19 |
| pitti | rest after lunch | 12:19 |
| mpt | Are there any packages in Restricted that are part of Ubuntu Server? | 12:23 |
| * mpt doesn't know quite how much sense that question makes | 12:24 | |
| Riddell | mpt: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.26-5-server ? | 12:27 |
| mpt | and the "linux-server" metapackage, I guess | 12:27 |
| jdstrand | seb128_: hi! I just noticed in the evolution calendar, if I double click on '4pm' to create an appt, the editor shows it as '8pm', and it also shows up as reminders at '8pm'. My timezone is EDT (-0400). Do you see this behavior? | 12:53 |
| jdstrand | (this is hardy btw) | 12:53 |
| seb128_ | jdstrand: hi, is that google calendar or a local one? | 12:56 |
| jdstrand | seb128_: local | 12:56 |
| jdstrand | seb128_: the 'system' one specifically | 12:56 |
| dendrobates | fabbione: I'll look into it. | 12:56 |
| seb128_ | jdstrand: did you configure your timezone correctly in the evolution preferences? | 12:56 |
| jdstrand | seb128_: it says America/New_York, this Adjust for daylight savings checked (that is what it should be (and -0400)) | 12:57 |
| jdstrand | seb128_: I tried changing that to something else, then back, but it's still wrong | 12:58 |
| seb128_ | jdstrand: not a known issue then no | 12:58 |
| jdstrand | seb128_: and you don't see it yourself? | 12:58 |
| seb128_ | o | 12:58 |
| seb128_ | no | 12:58 |
| seb128_ | what view do you use? and how to create the calendar entry? | 12:59 |
| jdstrand | seb128_: ok-- I vaguely remember trying to do something to adjust for google calendar back when it didn't work right, and wonder if that was it. I'll try on a new user... | 12:59 |
| jdstrand | seb128_: thanks | 12:59 |
| seb128_ | no problem | 13:00 |
| seb128_ | google calendar timezone is known to be broken | 13:00 |
| persia | tjaalton: What sort of testing do you need for bug #44169? Should plugging in two devices that normally need evdev generate the right result? | 13:00 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 44169 in xorg-server "no multimedia keys when using evdev with mouse" [Unknown,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/44169 | 13:00 |
| seb128_ | should be fixed in intrepid now though | 13:00 |
| jdstrand | seb128_: oh, the view is 'Day view' | 13:00 |
| jdstrand | seb128_: and creating the calendar entry is just double clicking on a time within day view (eg, double click on 4pm, and the editor shows it as 8pm) | 13:01 |
| jdstrand | same thing for work week view | 13:02 |
| seb128_ | works fine here, but I'm on intrepid, I don't think that's buggy on hardy though | 13:03 |
| seb128_ | I would have noticed and we would have goten bugs about it | 13:04 |
| jdstrand | seb128_: same thing with a brand new user | 13:05 |
| jdstrand | seb128_: went through the wizard, set the timezone to America/New_York via the map, double clicked in calendar-- 4 hours off | 13:06 |
| seb128_ | jdstrand: let me boot my desktop | 13:06 |
| seb128_ | jdstrand: what system timezone do you use? | 13:06 |
| jdstrand | $ date | 13:07 |
| jdstrand | Tue Aug 5 08:07:00 EDT 2008 | 13:07 |
| asac | mdz: applet not running -> the applet only shows up if it has a dbus connection to the NetworkManager daemon | 13:07 |
| asac | mdz: multiple connections -> this is a feature of NM 0.7, its just the UI that is missing the features to disable a connection | 13:08 |
| asac | the dbus calls exist already. | 13:09 |
| asac | however, it is still unclear how the final UI will look like. | 13:09 |
| seb128_ | jdstrand: what timezone is listed in the appointment dialog? | 13:10 |
| jdstrand | America/New_York | 13:10 |
| mdz | asac: hopefully not a radio button :-) | 13:10 |
| asac | mdz: yes. imo its hard to keep the applet simple, but still put all the new features in it | 13:11 |
| ogra | hmm ? how do you work with more than one default route ? | 13:11 |
| ogra | you still need one to be the default, no ? | 13:12 |
| asac | mdz: last time i talked to dan (upstream lead) he didnt appeared to be too scared about the applet not being ready yet. sounded like he knew what to do | 13:12 |
| jdstrand | seb128_: my i386 laptop is ok | 13:12 |
| asac | ogra: i think the last connection you click on will become the default route | 13:12 |
| jdstrand | seb128_: (it was a clean hardy install) | 13:13 |
| asac | so when you are connected to wired 1 + wired 2, then click on wired 1 again it will take over the default route | 13:13 |
| seb128_ | jdstrand: weird, it's ok too here, but I don't get why a new user should be wrong | 13:13 |
| asac | ogra: are you using the PPA version? | 13:13 |
| ogra | asac, but if i want to manually force it otherwise a radiobutton would be appropriate | 13:13 |
| seb128_ | jdstrand: I tried changing the evolution timezone to newyork, doesn't make a different, the new appointement dialog still displays the selected time | 13:13 |
| seb128_ | jdstrand: where is the hour wrong? in the "hour" in the dialog to create the calendar entry? or after validating it? | 13:14 |
| jdstrand | seb128_: what arch is your desktop? | 13:14 |

| asac | ogra: there is a hardy build too in the PPA | 13:14 |
| jdstrand | seb128_: it is wrong in 'Time' section of the appt editor, but I noticed all this because I got reminders that were 4 hours off | 13:15 |
| asac | ogra: except for drivers there shouldnt be much a difference | 13:15 |
| seb128_ | jdstrand: amd64 but the hardy install is an i386 one | 13:15 |
| jdstrand | seb128_: I'm amd64/hardy-- I'm going to try an amd64 vm (i386 vm and laptop ok) | 13:16 |
| seb128_ | jdstrand: what timezone do you have in /etc/timezone? | 13:16 |
| jdstrand | America/New_York | 13:16 |
| seb128_ | ok, so that's not a timezone mismatch | 13:17 |
| seb128_ | let me know how the testing goes | 13:17 |
| jdstrand | ok | 13:17 |
| seb128_ | jdstrand: so it's also listed at the wrong day in the calendar view? | 13:19 |
| jdstrand | seb128_: correct day, wrong time (always 4 hours off) | 13:20 |
| jdstrand | seb128_: it seems to be just my desktop-- the amd64 vm is ok too | 13:20 |
| jdstrand | seb128_: my desktop went through the hardy devel cycle and was not clean install-- maybe there is some cruft somewhere... | 13:21 |
| jdstrand | (now to find the cruft...) | 13:21 |
| seb128_ | there should be no cruft which create misbehaviour | 13:21 |
| seb128_ | well, I doubt of that, usually cruft are user configs | 13:21 |
| seb128_ | and you have the issue using a new user too | 13:21 |
| jdstrand | that's true | 13:21 |

| persia | I seem to remember some larger conversation about all the different ways that gems were broken during one of the Server Team meetings. Maybe someone from there knows? | 13:31 |
| pitti | mdz: ah, ProblemType is tricky; I use that as an anchor to find out where in the description the apport formatted report starts (ProblemType: always comes first, the rest in alphabetical order) | 13:31 |
| pitti | mdz: I could invent another arbitrary anchor, of course | 13:32 |
| seb128_ | jdstrand: date -u? | 13:33 |

| jdstrand | Tue Aug 5 12:34:09 UTC 2008 | 13:34 |
| seb128_ | ok, everything seems fine, and I don't see why the system configuration should impact on that anyway | 13:34 |
| seb128_ | your evo preferences point to a timezone | 13:34 |
| jdstrand | seb128_: I just tried changing the timezone to Prague via right click on time panel applet, then changed back, and still wrong | 13:35 |
| seb128_ | and you defined an event in the same timezone | 13:35 |
| pitti | thekorn: hm, does Bug().date work for you? I just get an XPath-Expr error | 13:35 |
| seb128_ | I did let my system on european time | 13:35 |
| seb128_ | changed the evo calendar to new york | 13:35 |
| jdstrand | (with an evolution --force-shutdown in between) | 13:35 |
| pitti | thekorn: same for date_reported | 13:35 |
| seb128_ | it shifted the events in the calendar correctly | 13:35 |
| seb128_ | since the calendar was on new york time then | 13:35 |
| seb128_ | and creating an event was adding it at the right new york time too | 13:36 |
| jdstrand | seb128_: I just now used evo preferences, changed it to Prague-- double clicked an appt in evo at 12pm-- it shows the Time fields in the edit dialog as 4pm, but the timezone itself is shown as 'Europe/Prague' | 13:38 |
| jdstrand | odd | 13:38 |
| pitti | thekorn: ah, works on main branch, just not in intrepid package; nevermind | 13:39 |
| thekorn | ah, ok | 13:41 |
| pitti | thekorn: what is the official way to get the date? .date, .date_reported, or .get_date()? | 13:42 |

| ogra_cmpc | tjaalton, i did a dist-upgrade from hardy just now | 15:39 |
| ogra_cmpc | thats been my first boot | 15:39 |
| tjaalton | blank screen sounds like usplash/kernel | 15:39 |
| pitti | *beam* :) | 15:39 |
| ogra_cmpc | X seemed not to like my xorg.conf i needed for trh touchscreen | 15:39 |
| hwilde | ogra_cmpc, if you run updates you should get more | 15:39 |
| hwilde | if thats your first boot | 15:39 |
| ogra_cmpc | so removing that and i hear gdm swtarting | 15:39 |
| ogra_cmpc | *starting | 15:40 |
| ogra_cmpc | i booted without splash, no changes | 15:40 |
| ogra_cmpc | persia, 965 iirc | 15:40 |
| tjaalton | ogra_cmpc: disable failsafe from gdm.conf and start x with the xorg.conf to see where it fails | 15:40 |
| ogra_cmpc | well, itrs an old hand crafted xorg.conf | 15:41 |
| tjaalton | still :) | 15:41 |
| hwilde | I would ctrl+alt+f1 and run the upgrades | 15:41 |
| hwilde | but thats jus me | 15:41 |
| ogra_cmpc | hwilde, there is no consiole | 15:41 |
| ogra_cmpc | black screen | 15:41 |
| persia | ogra_cmpc: Ah. I had what looked like that on a 945 with an upgrade in the last couple hours, but it turned out to be X only listening to one of the mice and ignoring the keyboard (and gdm sleeping) | 15:41 |
| hwilde | :/ | 15:41 |
| ogra_cmpc | well, gdm drums clearly | 15:42 |
| tjaalton | ogra_cmpc: I had to switch to the console before usplash to see my screen (965) | 15:42 |
| ogra_cmpc | hwilde, and which upgrades ? i did a fresh dist upgrade 10 min ago :) | 15:42 |
| hwilde | I dunno... dist-upgrade just goes from one kernel to the other, then sometimes there are more updates once you are up to the newer kernel | 15:42 |
| ogra_cmpc | tjaalton, durin usplash ? | 15:42 |
| ogra_cmpc | i'll try that | 15:43 |
| tjaalton | ogra_cmpc: yes, as early as possible | 15:43 |

| hwilde | ogra_cmpc, ok but I will bet you whenever you get back in that there are updates :) | 15:43 |
| ogra_cmpc | ctrl-alt-del gives me huuuge letters ion the screen | 15:43 |
| tjaalton | ogra_cmpc: same here | 15:44 |
| ogra_cmpc | meh, but switching away in usplash gets me to a black screen again | 15:44 |
| ogra_cmpc | no console | 15:44 |
| tjaalton | weird | 15:44 |
| ogra_cmpc | gdm drums though | 15:44 |
| tjaalton | oh. you need to shut down the machine | 15:45 |
| ogra_cmpc | ah, reboot isnt enough ? | 15:45 |
| tjaalton | nope | 15:45 |
| ogra_cmpc | same behavior | 15:46 |
| ogra_cmpc | black screen, backlight on | 15:46 |

| ogra_cmpc | tseliot, i actually belive its the framebuffer misbehaving, but i'll check the file | 15:51 |
| mdz | my up arrow key is now a shortcut for print screen | 15:52 |
| ogra_cmpc | how handy | 15:52 |
| hwilde | I like keytouch | 15:52 |
| tjaalton | mdz: change the kb model to evdev | 15:52 |
| mdz | it is actually extremely inconvenient, because it is a key I tend to press several times before I realize what is happening | 15:52 |
| tjaalton | that should be forced though | 15:52 |
| BenC | ogra_cmpc: err, sounds bad | 15:53 |
| ogra_cmpc | ooooh | 15:53 |
| mdz | tjaalton: thanks...is there a more permanent and automatic fix on the way? | 15:53 |
| ogra_cmpc | i have X !!! | 15:53 |
| ogra_cmpc | bootin 10 times with usplash disabled seems to have gotten me there | 15:53 |
| mdz | tjaalton: my xorg.conf is entirely autogenerated | 15:53 |

| ogra_cmpc | wrong resolution though | 15:54 |
| tjaalton | mdz: yes, it should be forced always | 15:54 |
| mdz | tjaalton: setxkbmap -model evdev didn't fix it | 15:54 |
| tjaalton | mdz: as evdev, because gnome is borked | 15:54 |
| mdz | tjaalton: is there a bug number for this? | 15:54 |

| mdz | tjaalton: on which package should I file it? | 15:55 |
| tjaalton | ogra_cmpc: good for you :) | 15:55 |
| tjaalton | mdz: xorg-server | 15:55 |
| ogra_cmpc | so now i run a dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg to get a clean xorg.conf .... | 15:55 |
| tjaalton | ogra_cmpc: it would be nice to know what broke it in the old config | 15:56 |
| ogra_cmpc | it points the keyboard setup to kbd, should i change that ? | 15:56 |
| ogra_cmpc | \well, i booted serveral times with no config at all | 15:56 |
| tjaalton | ogra_cmpc: keyboard/mouse sections are completely ignored now | 15:56 |
| ogra_cmpc | ah, k | 15:56 |
| tjaalton | ogra_cmpc: the blank screen bug is different | 15:56 |

| * zyga has just received a notice that his employer went belly-up and is now looking for a new job | 16:06 | |
| sladen | tjaalton: back to your earlier question; PnP provides enumeration; so a check for 'WACf004' ... which shows there's a serial port at 0xf123 irq 0x42; so kernel pops up /dev/ttyS3; init.d/*wacom* (in future, HAL), maps that to /dev/wacom X (since broken in the last release) spots that I talks Wacom down that symlinked serial port | 16:06 |

| ogra | and xchats themeing is badly broken | 16:07 |
| persia | ogra: No? I thought you said you had the same device at UDS :( | 16:07 |
| sladen | persia: in hardy it would just be mapped (added together will all other mouse-like input) and read through /dev/input/mouse | 16:07 |
| sladen | persia: here, X is now treating it as a separate input device | 16:08 |
| ogra | IDEACOIDC 6680 | 16:08 |
| ogra | thats what i have | 16:08 |
| persia | sladen: Right, which is significantly more sensible. | 16:08 |
| ogra | hal reports it as /dev/input/event2 | 16:08 |
| ogra | but doesnt seem to handle it at all | 16:09 |

| ogra | and its not wacom compatible either if that was your intention | 16:10 |

| persia | ogra: What events does it expose (according to lsinput)? | 16:11 |
| sladen | (input-utils) | 16:11 |
| pitti | BenC: ah, the current "kernel crash" mode in the apport UI says "Your system might become unstable now and might need to be restarted."; that was for the original (2 years back) specification, but is not true any more, right? vmcore reading, etc. will happen after the next reboot only | 16:11 |

| BenC | pitti: if apport can detect that an oops occured without bringing the system down, that old feature is useful | 16:15 |
| pitti | BenC: not right now, only if something manually triggers it (calls kernel_hook) | 16:16 |
| tjaalton | ogra: it's probably evtouch which made the server fail then, since the driver doesn't seem to work with xserver 1.5 | 16:16 |

| seb128 | pitti: is dbus maintained in bzr? any objection if I do an upload to enable the x11 script again in dbus-x11? | 17:24 |
| pitti | seb128: no bzr; no, please go ahead, that'll drop another delta to Debian | 17:25 |
| seb128 | thanks | 17:25 |
| seb128 | upstream decided now that dbus is a system thing so they made gnome-session rely on it being started before | 17:25 |
| pitti | aah | 17:26 |
| pitti | and they stopped relying on it promoting GNOME env vars? | 17:26 |
| pitti | (to activated backends) | 17:26 |
| ogra | they discussed the dbus system art as kernel module in rague | 17:26 |

| pitti | modprobe dbus? argh | 17:27 |
| asac | pitti: dbus instead of libnl for instance ;) | 17:27 |
| ogra | asac, well with (kai) dbus upstream and davidz at the table | 17:27 |
| elmo | hahahahahahahaha | 17:27 |
| elmo | seriously? | 17:27 |
| ogra | and they werent joking | 17:27 |
| asac | that was one of the use cases according to marcel | 17:27 |
| pitti | asac: oh, btw, if you upload n-m 0.7, can you please make sure that the init script does not run for rc0 and rc6, to save us another symlink transition later on? | 17:28 |
| ogra | but there was beer ivolved ... so ... | 17:28 |
| seb128 | pitti: yes | 17:28 |
| pitti | asac: (I guess 0.7 moves /etc/dbus-1/event.d/25NetworkManager to a proper init script) | 17:28 |
| asac | yes. | 17:29 |
| pitti | asac: great, thanks | 17:29 |
| asac | pitti: is "multiuser" the right? | 17:31 |
| pitti | asac: no, please don't use multiuser, that's deprecated | 17:32 |

| pitti | asac: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2008-June/000430.html | 17:32 |
| bigon | is it intended that networkmanager is only work after logging in a graphical session? | 17:45 |
| hwilde | who maintains the experimental three-way merge of the grub menu.lst when updating kernels | 17:48 |
| hwilde | nobody wants to take credit? :) | 17:49 |
| asac | bigon: depedns | 17:50 |
| asac | bigon: 0.6 needs to get your credentials from keyring, so networks that require secrets (wpa etc.) need a running session | 17:50 |
| ogra | hwilde, ?? | 17:51 |
| ogra | can you elaborate ? | 17:51 |
| asac | bigon: open networks and normal wired ones should work even in 0.6 | 17:51 |
| bigon | asac, well logginin in console and try to run nm-tool just after boot doesn't work | 17:51 |
| ogra | is nm-tool suposed to have any functionality ? | 17:52 |
| ogra | i thought it was only for reporting avalable interfaces | 17:52 |
| asac | bigon: plesae check that NetworkManager process is actually running | 17:52 |
| asac | ogra: right. its just introspection | 17:52 |
| bigon | asac, networkmanager and networkmanagerdispatcher are running | 17:52 |
| bigon | as root | 17:52 |
| asac | sure | 17:53 |
| asac | bigon: so what does nm-tool give you? | 17:53 |
| === bdmurray_ is now known as bdmurray | ||
| hwilde | ogra, when you run dist-upgrade and it updates the kernel if you have a modified /boot/grub/menu.lst it prompts you what to do, one of the options is experimentla three-way merge, who is that? | 17:53 |
| bigon | asac, networkmanager is not running or somethink liketaht | 17:53 |
| ogra | hwilde, thats ucf taking care of you having changed the wrong bits of the file :) only change the kopt line and it will stay quiet | 17:54 |
| bigon | but actually both process are there, I loggin in gnome goes back to the console and then I get some results | 17:54 |
| asac | have you tried to run nm-tool as root? | 17:54 |
| ogra | hwilde, thats thats by no means experimental and was like that in hardy as well :) | 17:55 |
| ogra | thats | 17:55 |
| ogra | -thats i meant | 17:55 |
| bigon | asac, good question I will reboot and check that | 17:55 |
| hwilde | ogra, but I want it to maintain my irqpoll routeirq and acpi=off settings it keeps replacing that at the end of the kernel line | 17:56 |
| ogra | hwilde, where do you add them ? | 17:57 |
| ogra | hwilde, # kopt= is the right place ... then run update-grub afterwards, the noise will stop and your kernel lines will have the right settings | 17:57 |
| pitti | soren: did you see mvo's regression report in bug 234062? | 17:58 |

| mvo | pitti: we talked about it earlier, I uploaded another sru to -proposed that should fix this regression (give me a sec, I dig out the bugnumber) | 17:59 |
| hwilde | ogra, cool I did not know kopt. it also overwrites root=/dev/sda1 with the UUID is there a flag to disable that | 17:59 |

| pitti | mvo: ok, thanks | 17:59 |
| ogra | hwilde, check if you fine the uuid anywhere in that file | 18:00 |
| ogra | *find | 18:00 |
| ogra | but uuid is actually the better way, why do you want to keep the old notation (which is going to vanish at some point) ? | 18:00 |
| ogra | (uuid is likely also in the current kopt line) | 18:01 |
| bigon | asac, yeah actually nm-tool works as root | 18:02 |
| ogra | might be because you have no seeion dbus without a graphical session | 18:02 |
| ogra | *session | 18:02 |
| ogra | and normal users cant access the system dbus | 18:02 |
| ogra | that always needs to go through the session bus | 18:03 |
| ogra | so it will work fine in an xterm/gnome-term but likely not on console | 18:03 |
| asac | bigon: great. | 18:04 |
| asac | bigon: what wifi chipset do you have? | 18:04 |
| hwilde | ogra, I have to clone the image between hundreds of machines so I can't use uuid. what i'm really asking is if the experimental three way merge could JUST upgrade the kernel version and not touch the rest of the options on that line | 18:06 |

| asac | bigon: s/bug/dbus/ ? | 18:08 |
| ogra | hwilde, i would suggest something like a sed line that catches the kopt line, changes it to your needs and seeds the right UUID for such a case, thats a small script | 18:08 |
| bigon | asac, yeah :) | 18:08 |
| asac | bigon: thats known and wont be fixed until NM 0.7 | 18:09 |
| ogra | hwilde, hwo do you know the kernel always calls the disk sda1 ? there is no guarantee at all anymore, its a total matter of luck | 18:09 |

| ogra | asac, on my old lappie i have a b43 i think ... but thats still on gutsy | 18:11 |

| mvo | I need a good way of saying "All files that have been downloaded so far are kept and do not need to be downloaded again if you decide to run the upgrade again" (context is when the connection drops during a release-upgrader download. any suggestsions? | 18:24 |
| norsetto | mvo: if you need an hand with sru-verification, I'll be glad to join | 18:27 |

| norsetto | mvo: ok, will do then, thx | 18:29 |
| tkamppeter | stgraber, thank you for the info. | 18:32 |
| hwilde | ogra, it's not luck if it's exactly the same on 180 different machines, cmon | 18:34 |
| hwilde | be realistic here | 18:34 |
| ogra | hwilde, just dont complain if it breaks | 18:35 |
| hwilde | ogra, the point is why does updateing the kernel update anything but the kernel? just update the kernel not the rest of the options | 18:35 |
| hwilde | in the whole menu.lst all it needs to do is change the number on the kernel, nothing else | 18:35 |
| ogra | kopt cares for exactly that | 18:35 |
| hwilde | but it overwrites root=/dev/sda1 with the UUID | 18:36 |
| ogra | but slangasek might be a better pendant for you to discuss ucf and menu.lst | 18:36 |
| ogra | only if the UUID is defined soemwhere in the kernel options in that file | 18:36 |
| ogra | which i suppose it is since its the default | 18:36 |
| === azeem_ is now known as azeem | ||
| ogra | hwilde, and sda can easily become sdb if for example someone left a backup usb drive plugged in you dont know about ... if that becomes sda1 because the kernel likes to name it like that the backup would be gone | 18:38 |
| ogra | (and you wouldnt have a bootable first system disk) | 18:38 |
| ogra | UUID prevents that | 18:38 |
| hwilde | ogra, UUID does not allow cloning the image to 180 machines | 18:39 |
| ogra | as i said above, have a script that detects the UUID and adds it in the kopt line properly | 18:40 |
| sbeattie | norsetto: if you're interested in doing sru verifications, we'd love the help. | 18:42 |

| ogra | hardy->intrepid upgrade | 19:32 |
| ogra | oh, it only listed them twice after the first new send/recive they are single msgs again | 19:33 |
| ogra | but why dont i get any windowframes for the evo window :( | 19:36 |
| * ogra curses ... i want my frames back ! | 19:39 | |
| kirkland | ogra_cmpc: try ctrl-m | 20:00 |
| ogra | yippie, the evo mail notification stopped the annoying blinking !! | 20:19 |
| === norsetto_limbo is now known as norsetto | ||
| ogra | err, hmm no it didnt ... weird | 20:20 |
| seb128 | ogra: so after some testing what issue do you still have? ;-) | 20:22 |
| ogra | none :) | 20:22 |
| ogra | it seemed a bit shaky | 20:22 |
| seb128 | did you get 2.23.6? | 20:22 |
| ogra | having all mails in inbox twice until i did my first poll agan, the blinking notification is much quieter now (stops blinking after a few times) | 20:23 |
| ogra | 2.24 i thought | 20:23 |
| ogra | ah, 2.23.6 | 20:23 |
| ogra | yeah | 20:23 |
| ogra | not sure what the missing window borders were about ... i had the UNR packages installed, i bet they were at fault | 20:24 |
| ogra | intresting though that it only affected evo | 20:24 |
| seb128 | ogra: they fixed load of bugs this cycle, some hundreds again | 20:25 |
| ogra | what i really wish for is that the mail notification brigs evo up if i click it ... its annoying to have to click the icon *and* the window list | 20:26 |
| seb128 | ogra: but 2.23.5 and 2.23.6 had quite some changes, they landed the on disk summary code, now disk summary uses sqlite | 20:26 |
| seb128 | right | 20:26 |
| ogra | i noticed its a bit slower rendering the folders | 20:26 |
| ogra | especially if they are bg | 20:26 |
| ogra | *big | 20:26 |
| seb128 | I didn't package 2.23.5 because it was too buggy but 2.23.6 should be mostly alright | 20:27 |
| seb128 | oh? | 20:27 |
| seb128 | how many mails? | 20:27 |
| ogra | my smallest has about 500, my biggest something like 30000 | 20:27 |
| ogra | the big one takes about 1.5-2 secs until i see the msg list ... | 20:28 |
| seb128 | the new version was freezing for some seconds when opening my mailbox but that has been fixed this afternoon, I'm listing only unread mails and it was being slow at list hidden ones apparently | 20:28 |
| ogra | before it was rather instantly | 20:28 |
| seb128 | do you have lot of hidden mails there? | 20:28 |
| ogra | but i can live with a 2sec delay | 20:28 |
| ogra | not really | 20:28 |
| seb128 | ok, differently issue probably | 20:28 |
| ogra | i leave all of them visible | 20:28 |
| ogra | since i use evo as archive tool and search a lot in it | 20:29 |
| seb128 | they are optimizing things, they wanted to get the thing working first before looking too much to performances | 20:29 |
| seb128 | I expect it'll get better again before intrepid | 20:29 |
| ogra | it was nice to not lose mail this time :) | 20:29 |
| pedro_ | it's way faster to me than in hardy in reading my bugmail folder with about 60000 emails | 20:29 |
| ogra | i had worse upgrade experiences with it | 20:29 |
| pedro_ | but the summary of the search folders aren't working :-( | 20:30 |
| * ogra didnt use search folders for quite some time | 20:30 | |
| ogra | since gutsy i think | 20:31 |
| seb128 | pedro_: search folder = vfolder? | 20:32 |
| seb128 | I think that was too buggy and they desactivated some functions for now | 20:32 |
| seb128 | I don't use those | 20:32 |

| DRebellion | apachelogger, ^^ | 20:58 |
| slangasek | DRebellion: yes - though I would note that since your .orig.tar.gz is currently built out of svn, it seems trivial to excise it at the same time? :) | 20:58 |
| seb128 | slangasek: hey, could you look at the amsn hardy-proposed sru universe upload Adri2000 just mentionned? I think it's ok to accept but I don't do srus usually so I'm not sure if sru-accept should be used or how guys do those | 21:00 |
| DRebellion | slangasek, i wouldn't feel confident removing it - the whole source package is quite complex. | 21:00 |
| seb128 | slangasek: it's an universe upload and has been approved so technically it's just waving it in I think, right? | 21:00 |
| DRebellion | slangasek, plus, i thought we were meant to leave upstream's source well alone | 21:01 |
| DRebellion | ? | 21:01 |
| slangasek | DRebellion: when upstream publishes a tarball, it's generally preferred that you not modify it when feasible; but when you're building from a VCS anyway, there's no advantage to an "unmodified" tarball... | 21:03 |
| lifeless | slangasek: huh? | 21:03 |
| lifeless | slangasek: why is vcs any less precious than the contents of a tarball; both are hashable for integraty verification by third parties | 21:03 |
| slangasek | DRebellion: it would just have been nice to be able to omit that chunk of code from e.g., debian/copyright | 21:03 |
| DRebellion | slangasek, ok, i will ask upstream | 21:03 |
| DRebellion | wait, no, i'll just remove it myself :P | 21:04 |
| slangasek | seb128: has it been acked by motu-sru? | 21:04 |

| Adri2000 | thanks slangasek and seb128 :) | 21:05 |
| slangasek | lifeless: ok, *if* a straight checkout gets you an appropriate orig.tar.gz, then that's a reasonable concern, yes; if you're running ./autogen.sh as part of the get-orig-tar target, less so... | 21:05 |
| lifeless | slangasek: true | 21:05 |

| slangasek | seb128: sru-accept is used to tag the bugs appropriately, yes; the actual accept is done the normal way | 21:07 |
| slangasek | seb128: which you are welcome to do as my attention is divided at the moment, or I'll get it in a bit | 21:08 |
| seb128 | slangasek: ah ok, so you do accept the upload and use sru-accept to update the bug? | 21:08 |
| slangasek | seb128: correct | 21:08 |

| slangasek | kees: no, I just noted it in the diff while reviewing an SRU | 21:16 |
| slangasek | kees: but if debconf-updatepo ever gave you a delta on openldap, let me know so I can scream at someone ;) | 21:16 |
| kees | slangasek: ah-ha, okay. Yeah, I do this to avoid a massive diff delta. It used to always give me deltas due to timestamps changing. | 21:17 |
| kees | slangasek: I can't say if it happened on openldap itself, but it happened with so many other packages, I just added this to my security update build check list | 21:17 |
| slangasek | oh, I suspect that was a bug in an older version of debconf-updatepo then | 21:17 |

| cr3 | slangasek: ping, would you happen to be familiar with the build process of the alternate image? I encountered a problem where the netboot kernel is not the same version as the debian packages on the image, bug #255093 | 21:54 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 255093 in ubuntu "Netinstall for 20080805 fails with: No kernel modules were found." [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/255093 | 21:54 |
| cr3 | slangasek: I'm wondering if I should perhaps report a bug against launchpad in the event the build process was automated somehow, but I'm just not familiar with launchpad to know | 21:55 |
| ogra | thats likely being d-i out of sync | 21:56 |
| cr3 | ogra: ah, so the linux and initrd.gz files are provided by the d-i package? | 21:56 |
| ogra | there was a kernel upload recently and colin is on holiday so he didnt update d-i accordingly | 21:56 |
| ogra | i think d-i is special in this case | 21:57 |
| cr3 | ogra: that process seems error prone, but I don't want to be pretentious in suggesting it could necessarily be automated. perhaps would there be an appropriate place to report a wishlist for this? | 21:57 |
| ogra | and needs to be built against the current kernel if we get a new one .... i.e. there are a lot of packages built as udebs | 21:57 |
| ogra | by the linux package | 21:57 |
| ogra | d-i will want to pull these in | 21:57 |
| ogra | cr3, colin hould be back tomorrow, i would discuss it with him before filing a bug | 21:58 |
| cr3 | ogra: ok, worst case, I'll ask if evand could handle this during his holiday next week | 21:59 |
| ogra | colin will be around for the next alpha | 22:00 |
| ogra | and i doubt anyone actually takes massive care for dailies for that | 22:00 |
| cr3 | ogra: I finally automated the whole process of testing dailies. as soon as new dailies are detected, I test the builds: ubuntu, kubuntu, mythbuntu, ubuntu-server, ubuntustudio, xubuntu. so, I'll be keeping close tabs on those dailies :) | 22:03 |
| ogra | thats mad | 22:03 |
| === sabdf1 is now known as sabdfl | ||
| ogra | nobody really cares for dailies bwing installable | 22:04 |
| ogra | *being | 22:04 |
| cr3 | ogra: what's the point of an iso image if you can't install it? | 22:04 |
| stgraber | ogra: we do :) | 22:04 |
| ogra | in fact the majority before the late alphas will be broken since we upload packages for implementing features that often require a package set in place before something works | 22:04 |
| ogra | well, if they work thats by occasion ... | 22:05 |
| ogra | but we only really put deliberate work into alphas to make sure they work | 22:05 |
| cr3 | ogra: what's this "package set in place"? | 22:06 |
| ogra | well, for example i have compcache on my plate for the liveCD | 22:06 |
| stgraber | ogra: I guess I found the problem with my VM ... no hald running ?? known issue ? | 22:06 |
| ogra | one part has to be implemented in initramfs-tools, the other in casper | 22:06 |
| cr3 | ogra: those will also be tested automatically, but it would be reassuring to know that the dailies from a day or two before alpha actuall work | 22:06 |
| ogra | stgraber, no hal installed on thin clients :) | 22:06 |
| stgraber | ogra: and no dbus either (hal's dep) | 22:06 |
| ogra | i never was | 22:07 |
| stgraber | ogra: it's installed, dbus too | 22:07 |
| ogra | oh | 22:07 |
| stgraber | ogra: I guess that was added to Xorg depends | 22:07 |
| ogra | oh !!! | 22:07 |
| ogra | thats pretty bad | 22:07 |
| stgraber | or something similar because I just rebuilt a chroot and got hal and dbus installed | 22:07 |
| stgraber | and no Xorg input because of hal not running | 22:07 |
| ogra | bryce, so xorg doesnt work in minimal setups at all anymore ? | 22:07 |
| cr3 | ogra: so compcache might make it in initramfs-tools before or after in casper, so the live and alternate might be different at some point in time, right? | 22:08 |
| * ogra sighs | 22:08 | |
| ogra | so i have no idea why i put that much work into getting 24M clients to work ... we wont be able to use X on them at all | 22:08 |
| bryce | ogra, what are you talking about? | 22:09 |
| ogra | cr3, right ... and now imagine (what isnt the case) that the change to initramfs-tools only works if the change in csper is also there | 22:09 |
| stgraber | ogra: libhal1 is now a depends of xserver-xorg-core, so it installs dbus and hal in the chroot ... | 22:09 |
| ogra | bryce, hal and dbus being a hard dep of X now | 22:09 |
| ogra | bryce, so there is no way anymore to have a minimal setup that runs on low power systems | 22:09 |
| ogra | one declared target for ltsp was to support 24MB clients ths cycle because we get many requests | 22:10 |
| ogra | but that would only work with hardcoded xorg.conf (a blame te users would take) ... though running hal and dbus on such systems is not an option, they would run out of ram during boot | 22:11 |
| === cprov1 is now known as cprov-out | ||
| bryce | ogra, yeah no secret that xorg was moving to depend on those | 22:11 |
| tjaalton | ogra: x-x-c depends on libhal already since hardy | 22:11 |
| ogra | hrm | 22:12 |
| ogra | but it doesnt work at all without them running anymore | 22:12 |
| tjaalton | there's a patch pending | 22:12 |
| ogra | i dont care if tehy sit in the chroot for ltsp clients ... | 22:12 |
| ogra | but they cant run on minimal HW | 22:12 |
| ogra | tjaalton, to make x capable of using the old methids ? | 22:13 |
| ogra | *methods | 22:13 |

| Adri2000 | slangasek: thanks for the sru. could you also do amsn-data binary new in intrepid please? | 22:13 |
| ogra | tjaalton, sweet thanks | 22:13 |
| ogra | that sounds usable | 22:14 |
| tjaalton | ogra: all it would need now is to add the input devices in serverlayout | 22:14 |
| bryce | tjaalton: btw did pitti include my console2fdi.sh script in hal for the keyboard stuff? (just checking that I can cross it off my todo) | 22:14 |
| ogra | btw i got nowhere with my touchpad and gave up for now | 22:14 |
| stgraber | tjaalton: well, we were happy to just run without xorg.conf and IIRC it used to work where it now doesn't (without hal) | 22:14 |
| tjaalton | stgraber: yes | 22:15 |
| ogra | we even put a week of work into ldm to support setxkbmap ... :( | 22:16 |
| tjaalton | bryce: well, hal uses the callout script modified from fedora, so there's no need to generate an fdi file | 22:16 |
| ogra | i guess thats moot | 22:16 |
| stgraber | ogra: is the compcache magic supposed to just work if I boot with "-m 24" or do I need to enable it somewhere ? | 22:17 |
| ogra | (since xkb was the only thing we actually used xorg.conf for ) | 22:17 |
| tjaalton | bryce: which is nice, since there's only one configuration file now (/e/d/console-setup) | 22:17 |
| cr3 | ogra: gotcha, thanks for the use case | 22:17 |
| ogra | stgraber, see initramfs.conf its documented | 22:17 |
| tjaalton | stgraber: file a bug about the hal-less problem | 22:17 |
| stgraber | tjaalton: against ? | 22:18 |
| ogra | xserver-xorg ? | 22:18 |
| tjaalton | stgraber: xorg-server | 22:18 |
| jcristau | stgraber: xserver-xorg-core | 22:18 |
| tjaalton | yes, source package is xorg-server:) | 22:18 |
| bryce | tjaalton: callout script? | 22:19 |
| bryce | tjaalton: so the script I did is unnecessary then? | 22:19 |
| tjaalton | bryce: basically yes.. now it works just the way colin suggested in december :) | 22:19 |
| tjaalton | hal just needed one patch that fedora already had | 22:20 |

| stgraber | tjaalton: bug 255133 | 22:21 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 255133 in xorg-server "Input devices not working without hal running" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/255133 | 22:21 |
| tjaalton | bryce: so, hal runs this script when it founds a device that matches some criteria, see /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/10-x11-keymap.fdi | 22:22 |
| tjaalton | stgraber: thansk | 22:22 |
| tjaalton | -ks | 22:22 |
| ogra | stgraber, can you try to move the ltsp-client-core initscript to a later start ? | 22:22 |
| jcristau | tjaalton: two ways to fix this afaict. depend on hal, or default allowemptyinput to off. | 22:22 |
| philsf | does apt-listbugs work with ubuntu? | 22:22 |
| ogra | (i dont get why dbus and hal dont start at all though) | 22:22 |
| stgraber | ogra: I can but that shouldn't change anything as after the client booted dbus and hald weren't running | 22:23 |
| jcristau | tjaalton: i'm a bit tired of fighting it upstream, so. :) | 22:23 |
| ogra | stgraber, yeah, i'll have to look into that | 22:24 |
| ogra | bryce, tjaalton thanks a lot for the answers :) | 22:24 |
| tjaalton | ogra: no problem, sorry for causing a heart-attack ;) | 22:26 |
| bryce | ogra, glad it's worked out | 22:26 |
| ogra | tjaalton, well, i could have thought about it myself, bryce was right ... but i didnt actually expect to lose all backwards compatibiity (and luckily the patch you pointed out will retain the bit i need) | 22:27 |
| ogra | tjaalton, i'm actually upposed to not panic that much anymore ... so sorry for causing trouble first place :) | 22:28 |
| tjaalton | jcristau: right.. there are two different bugs here.. | 22:28 |
| ogra | *suposed | 22:28 |
| tjaalton | ogra: hehe | 22:28 |
| tjaalton | jcristau: this one without the conf and the one that your patch would fix | 22:29 |
| bryce | tjaalton: so I see there is a 'debian-setup-keyboard' listed in the info.callouts.add key, but what is that, a script, or...? (it's not in path) | 22:29 |
| tjaalton | bryce: it's a script, but only meant for hal, see /usr/lib/hal/debian-setup-keyboard | 22:30 |
| bryce | tjaalton: huh, interesting | 22:31 |
| Laney | doko: Hey, I don't know if you saw but bug #240884 got fixed upstream. It would be great if we could get a new binutils release with this change in if you have time :) | 22:34 |

| superm1 | tseliot, ping. I wanted to discuss with you something that i see will turn into a maintenance difficulty of the nvidia drivers | 23:00 |
| superm1 | tseliot, regarding hardcoding exact library versions like nvidia-glx-177.links:usr/lib/libGL.so.177.13 usr/lib/libGL.so.1 | 23:00 |
| tseliot | superm1: I'm here | 23:03 |
| superm1 | tseliot, so it looks like you are hardcoding the version number in tons of places | 23:04 |
| tseliot | superm1: did you see the links.in? | 23:04 |
| superm1 | tseliot, oh... this is what i'm getting for grepping the source package and missing the .in files :) | 23:05 |
| tseliot | the .links files are generated automatically | 23:05 |
| superm1 | tseliot, okay that's much more sane | 23:05 |
| tseliot | superm1: that doesn't waste my time ;) | 23:05 |
| tseliot | hardcoding the version would | 23:06 |
| superm1 | yeah | 23:06 |
| ogra | wasting time is only good if beer friends and probably food are involved :) | 23:06 |
| tseliot | ogra: no hardcoding is involved in that case :-P | 23:07 |
| ogra | indeed :) | 23:08 |
| superm1 | tseliot, okay looks good then. sorry for bothering you :) | 23:09 |
| tseliot | superm1: no problem :-) | 23:09 |
| lucas | Riddell: I answered on the LP bug | 23:29 |
