sistpoty__iron: just to clarify, you did install it via the ubuntu package, not the thingy that can be downloaded from nvidia, right?01:42

RAOFThen it's not going to work, for a number of reasons.01:45
sistpoty_iron: hm... I'm sorry to say that we cannot really support you installing the binary drivers directly from nvidia01:46
sistpoty(that's why we package these)01:46
_ironsistpoty i know01:46
_irontherefore nvidia suxx01:46
RAOFAnd the white screen strongy suggests you're using Xgl, which is now removed from the archive, and which cannot support the nvidia.com installer.01:46
sistpoty_iron: however if RAOF doesn't have a clue, you might ask tseliot (probably at ubuntu-devel), but at a better time of day (i.e. when he's not afk ;))01:47
sistpotyRAOF: btw, what's the state of nouveau in experimental?01:49

RAOFsistpoty: What card?01:50
_ironi havent read that installer doenst support X01:50
sistpotyRAOF:  8500 GT01:50
RAOF_iron: The installer overwrites libGL and doesn't provide a backup.  Xgl _needs_ the mesa libgl to work, and so fails.01:51
RAOFsistpoty: Hm.  You may be in luck, but not as much luck as if you had a nv4x card :)01:51
RAOFsistpoty: You might find my PPA more useful; it's substantially more up-to-date.01:51
_irongrml01:52
RAOF_iron: A simple solution for you would be to uninstall the xserver-xgl package; it's useles for you.01:52
sistpotyRAOF: oh, cool... I guess I might try this then... thanks! :)01:52
_ironi had buy a ati-card01:52

RAOF!nouveau > sistpoty01:52
ubottusistpoty, please see my private message01:52
_ironRAOF: i thought the new driver supports 3d better01:53
RAOF_iron: The driver you're installing is _exactly_ the driver you'd get from installing the nvidia-glx-173 package.01:54
_ironmhm01:54
RAOFThe only time I'd recommend going outside the packaged drivers is when your card isn't supported _at all_.  And no cards fit into that category at the moment.01:55

NCommanderI need someone's assistance on upload packages to hardy-proposed02:50
ScottK-laptopNCommander: What do you need?02:51
* cody-somerville notes we have the UUS queue on launchpad for this.02:52
NCommanderScottK, roughly 20 packages need uploading to hardy-proposed02:53
ScottK-laptopWhy?02:53
NCommanderScottK-laptop, to correct the GNAT issue on Hardy. I was working with DktrKats (sp?) on it, but he's been busy recently, so I'm just going to put them in the queue for him for easy approval02:54
ScottK-laptopHmmm.02:54
ScottK-laptopOK.02:54
ScottK-laptopNCommander: You fix my lpia FTBFS yet?02:55
NCommanderScottK-laptop, not yet, but it will float to the top of the TODO queue ;-)02:55
ScottK-laptopUnfortunately the Universe process calls for approval before upload.02:56
ScottK-laptopLet02:56
nxvlis good to have a FTBFS killer around02:56
nxvlLD02:56
nxvl:D02:56
* nxvl HUGS NCommander 02:56
ScottK-laptopLet's see who else is on motu-sru these days ...02:56
* cody-somerville runs.02:57
NCommanderScottK-laptop, I thought it was upload to hardy-proposed after uploading the bug report02:57
ScottK-laptopDid he already approve it?02:57
NCommandernxvl, who held the FTBFS killer title before mine02:57
NCommanderScottK-laptop, yeah, I have all the rebuilt packages with the proper patchs in my PPA02:58
ScottK-laptopNCommander: OK.  Email me a stack of debdiffs and I'll upload.02:58
NCommanderI just need to download each source package, remove the ~ppaX from it, and then reupload if I was an MOTU02:58
* NCommander looks at motu-sru first to see if someone is around who can tell me if one bug is fine, or I need to file multiple ones02:59
nxvlNCommander: i think no one02:59
NCommandernxvl, ?02:59
nxvlNCommander: no one helt the FTBFS killer title before you02:59
nxvlheld*03:00
* nxvl can cross the hallway and knock on cody's door if he runs to much03:00
nxvl:D03:00
ScottK-laptopNCommander: The problem with one bug is then people who are subscribed to bugmail for a particular package get ALL of it.03:01
NCommandernxvl, cody-somerville?03:01
NCommanderScottK-laptop, I think filing 22 bugs is a little overkill though03:02
ScottK-laptopSo while logically one bug makes sense, due to the carefully thought out state of Launchpad's design, it's not a great idea.03:02
ScottK-laptopI agree.  I'd have said one bug, but I lost that argument.03:02
nxvlNCommander: yeah, we are in Boston03:02
NCommanderScottK-laptop, the only problem is I can't put (LP: #XXX) in the changelogs because it will close the bug on the first upload03:04
ScottK-laptopOnly against that  package.03:04
* cody-somerville nods.03:04
NCommanderHuh?03:04
ScottK-laptopNCommander: You use also affects to open a task for each affected package.  The LP closing thing only closes it for the particular package.03:05
nxvljcastro: around?03:05
ScottK-laptopNCommander: As an example, the auto-close on 'needs-packaging' bugs doesn't work because the bug isn't filed against that package.03:06
NCommanderScottK-laptop, I didn't know about that "feature"03:06
ScottK-laptop;-)03:06
jcastronxvl: yeah, for a minute03:06
nxvljcastro: http://dev.chromium.org/developers/how-tos/build-instructions-linux03:07

pwnguinorly03:12
ajmitchrly03:12
pwnguini should find a relevant mailing list to subscribe to03:12
ajmitch"With all of that said, the plan is to use GTK. It's not due to any dislike of Qt, but just because there's more experience on the team with GTK and it matches the existing Firefox dependency on Linux. Please keep calm. :)"03:13
ajmitchhttp://dev.chromium.org/developers/faq03:13
pwnguinwell that was very 'collaborative' ;)03:13
pwnguinbut sometimes, you just gotta recognize the inevitable non-consensus and cut the knot03:14
ajmitchif you expected them to try & find consensus, you have to be smoking something powerful :)03:14
pwnguini expect that they want a contributing developer community, but maybe google can just hire one03:19
pwnguindo you like my hat? it's made of money!03:19
NCommanderScottK, checking if kppp should be compiled... no03:35
NCommanderScottK, I found your problem03:35
NCommanderScottK, checking linux/if_ppp.h usability... no03:36
NCommanderchecking linux/if_ppp.h presence... yes03:36
NCommanderAnd there is your reason03:36
ScottK-laptopNCommander: OK, so what's the fix?03:40
NCommanderScottK-laptop, I'll tell you as soon as I finish downloading the lpia hardy chroot03:40
ScottK-laptopThanks.03:40
NCommanderScottK-laptop, (I was scrubbing the log for answers)03:40
NCommanderScottK-laptop, it might need a patch to the kernel headers or something03:40
ScottK-laptopOuch.03:41
NCommanderScottK-laptop, which package are the kernel headers on lpia03:41
ScottK-laptopNCommander: If that's what needs to be done, it's not worth it.  They aren't going to path the Hardy lpia kernel to make KDE work on it.03:41
ScottK-laptoppath/patch03:41
NCommanderScottK-laptop, if its not a possibility, I can just patch it so it doesn't install kppp03:42
NCommanderScottK-laptop, everything else compiles just fine, so we disable kppp03:42
NCommanderScottK-laptop, it also may be a defective test03:42
ScottK-laptopNCommander: One that one arch sounds good.03:42
NCommanderScottK-laptop, huh?03:43
ScottK-laptopDisable kppp on lpia.03:43
NCommanderyeah, should be easy enough to do03:43
ScottK-laptopThat sounds good.03:43
NCommanderWell, if I can properly fix it, I perfer to do that first03:43
NCommanderScottK-laptop, grabbing the build-deps03:46
ScottK-laptopGreat.03:46
NCommanderIs there any device that ships with lpia yet?03:47
ScottK-laptopDunno.03:50
ScottK-laptopI'm just picky about being complete.03:50
ScottK-laptopIt also then becomes another reason why 3.5.10 in hardy-updates is an improvement over what we have now.03:51
ScottK-laptopBut I've also got the flu, so I may be completely out of my mind at this point.03:51
NCommanderc03:51
NCommanderer03:51
NCommanderEw03:51
NCommanderThe header appears to be partially broken03:51
NCommanderIt probably needs a dependency03:51
ScottK-laptopBe nice or I'll cough on my screen.03:52
* Hobbsee puts ScottK-laptop in a sealed box.03:52
Hobbseeproblem solved.03:52
ScottK-laptopAh, sweet, sweet silence.03:52
Hobbseeso, for this intrepid+1, will bzr be *required* for committing to ubuntu?03:56
pwnguini hope so03:57
ScottK-laptopHobbsee: No.03:57
ScottK-laptopHobbsee: Long thread on -devel that it'll all be optional for ages to come.03:58
HobbseeScottK-laptop: oh, good.03:58
pwnguinoptional on a per package or per upload basis?03:58
ScottK-laptopPer upload03:58
ScottK-laptopYou'll be free to keep working just like you do now if you want.03:58
Hobbseei wouldn't mind if it made the process easier, and was fast, but...03:59
ScottK-laptopYeah.  That was kind of my point in said thread.03:59
ScottK-laptopI was accused of being obstructionist.03:59
Hobbseehah03:59
NCommanderBleck04:00
NCommanderI don't want bzr packaging mandatory04:00
ScottK-laptopIn the end we settled that making it not suck before making it mandatory would be a good idea.04:00
pwnguinso basically, if you do a normal upload, it'll make a big commit in a bzr repo on your behalf somewhere?04:00
NCommanderScottK, well, I'm making progress, the header appears usable once you define a lot of other crazy headers04:01
NCommanderScottK, I can probably force the test, and then make changes to the includes04:01
ScottK-laptopInteresting.04:02
ScottK-laptoppwnguin: Something like that.  We discussed it to death on -devel.  Near the end of the thread there's a link to a spec.04:03
NCommanderScottK, and what seems to be a possible typo in a header04:03
NCommander#define aligned_u64 __u64 __attribute__((aligned(8)))04:03
NCommanderAnyone else see the mistake?04:04
pwnguinone of the reasons you do bzr/git/svn is to make it more accessible to people not using your code. i think a nice collaborative future might include commit emails on packages hitting upstream mailing lists04:04
pwnguins/using/running04:05
ScottK-laptoppwnguin: Personally, I don't have enough time to learn the details of a new VCS just for Ubuntu.04:06
NCommanderScottK, I found the bug it seems, now its a matter of figuring out how to fix it04:06
ScottK-laptopNCommander: Great.04:06
ScottK-laptopNCommander: What's the bug in?04:06
NCommanderScottK-laptop, appears a -DDEFINE is required to make the right type information be activated04:07
NCommanderI need to look at the config log and see what I need to add04:07
pwnguinok so about xournal. the DD developer is basically mia and the last NMU'er has said they dont have time to help out reviewing patches for upstream inclusion04:10
pwnguindoes MOTU basically adopt it and hope debian recognizes ubuntu as upstream?04:12
* NCommander sighs04:12
NCommanderWhat a headache04:12
NCommanderScottK-laptop, ok, there appears to be a good way to fix this04:13
NCommanderHold on04:13
ScottK-laptopKewl.04:14
ScottK-laptoppwnguin: How interested in the package are you?04:14
pwnguinim not sure it matters; vicenczo (sp?) seems to be taking decent care of it04:16
pwnguinbut theres a request from sponsors on a merge that we get ubuntu nonspecific patches upstream somehow04:17
pwnguinits mostly packaging at the moment, so i don't care a whole lot -- i just got my replacement ac cable for the tablet to test again04:17
NCommanderScottK, testing fix04:18
pwnguinScottK-laptop: i'd like to see xournal continue to be up to date in ubuntu, but honestly, the thought of me being the main contact is a bit intimidating04:23
ScottK-laptoppwnguin: Then just fix it up here and send patches in bugs to Debian.  What happens after that, isn't essentially your problem.  If you get ambitious you could NMU the package in Debian.04:24
pwnguincurrently xournal's up to date with xournal upstream, but debian has some changes to the packaging that people want04:24
pwnguins/people/person04:24
NCommanderScottK, poke?04:25

ubottuLaunchpad bug 267991 in kdenetwork "kdenetwork FTBFS on lpia" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/26799104:26
NCommanderScottK-laptop, I changed the code to hook against the glibc PPP interface vs using the Linux one directly (its standardized, its just the glibc interface has proper headers)04:27
pwnguinScottK-laptop: how does one contribute patches via BTS against a debian package without pissing off the developer that might be paying attention?04:28
NCommanderScottK, the changelog has to target hardy-proposed, right?04:28
pwnguini recall having a not good experience with thinkfinger04:28
ScottK-laptopNCommander: hardy-backports.04:29
ScottK-laptopNCommander: That's where 3.5.10 is right now.04:29
NCommanderYou are not the bug assignee nor the maintainer of kdenetwork (Ubuntu), and therefore cannot edit this bug's status.04:29
NCommanderThat's a new error04:29
pwnguinare you logged in?04:29
NCommanderyeah04:30
pwnguinhave super powers (i forget the team -- triagers?)04:30
NCommanderThere it goes04:30
ScottK-laptoppwnguin: It depends a lot on the Maintainer.  Most are happy to get a good, well explained patch.04:31
ScottK-laptoppwnguin: If the maintainer is pretty well MIA, odds of him being annoyed are low in any case.04:31
NCommanderScottK-laptop, I have a patch against the 3.5.9 FTBFS, not backports, but I can spin that one easily if this works04:31
ScottK-laptopShould be the same.04:32
NCommanderLEts do the SRU one first, that one targets hardy-proposed first, right?04:33
ScottK-laptopNCommander: I want to get all of 3.5.10 into -updates, so I'd rather just do it once.04:34
NCommanderDoes 3.5.10 meet SRU requirements?04:35

=== ember_ is now known as ember
dholbachRainCT: there were three tasks we worked on: generating a debdiff from a very small change, updating a package and then somebody asked me to show how to package something from scratch15:41
AndyPthe reason i ask is, a new upstream bugfix release of pybackpack went into debian today and would fix 5 launchpad bugs if ubuntu syncs it, so i guess i'll need to request an exception15:43
asomethingAndyP: if it's only bugfixes, not new features, it doesn't need a FFE15:45
AndyPasomething: oh, great, so what's the process?15:46
karoogawhats the best way to include docs and examples in a package.  e.g. I have my_package/docs/some_docs.txt15:46
karoogasorry, i mean best way to install docs in my package?15:46
asomethingAndyP: as it seems that it would be a simple sync from Debian and not a merge, file a sync request bug. it would probably be good to post the debian and upstream changelogs since the last ubuntu version to show that it's only bugfixs15:48
karoogai'm guessing just something in debian/rules?15:49
AndyPasomething: ok, thanks for your help15:50
asomethingAndyP: if it will closes specific bugs on lp list those as well, helps get quicker attention15:51
asomethingkarooga: dh_installdocs and dh_installexamples15:52

asomethingkarooga: if there are things not being picked up automagically you can create a debian/your_package.docs file16:02
