=== blueyed_ is now known as blueyed
calcgrr seems like launchpad is always going down for maintainance00:55
* calc thought he was going to be doing bug triage but apparently not00:56
* NCommander watches REVU die00:56
NCommanderI can understand shutting down edge for maintance, but is it really necessary to completely kill everything?00:57
kwwiicalc: did you get the updated icons and license info into OOo?00:57
ograkwwii, what are yu doing up at 2am ?00:58
TheMusocalc: I know what you mean, as it generally lands smack bang in the middle of my work day, so I have to find other things to do.00:58
* ogra can blame the glenvilet and RichEd but whats your excuse :P00:58
ajmitchNCommander: did that kill revu due to the openid hooks?00:59
crimsunTheMuso: hey, no boogs!00:59

* ogra did his final upload ...01:03
TheMusocrimsun: Any luck with that pulse sink stuff? I'm going to start again in a bit since LP is down. Am happy to go from where you have left off.01:04
slangasekkirkland: still around?01:05
kirklandslangasek: yessir01:05
crimsunTheMuso: been chasing ALSA and PA stuff concurrently, and honestly, didn't have time to look at the latter.  Sorry.01:05
TheMusocrimsun: np01:05
calcgar when lp goes down all hosted things go with it01:05
slangasekkirkland: hmmm.  are you going to be around until the end of the LP maintenance window? :-)01:05
calcthey really need to make lp more robust if they are going to keep bringing it down (what seems like) every week for several hours01:06
kirklandslangasek: :-)  probably, how much longer is that?01:06
slangasekI just got done smoke-testing my pam fix, and there goes LP, whoops :)01:06
slangasekkirkland: up to but not to exceed 2 hours01:06
* calc can't even run bzr log on one of his checkouts01:06
kirklandslangasek: i'll probably have my laptop with me, watching the debate01:06
slangasekok01:06
calcoh well as long as i can't get anything done right now i might as well upgrade to intrepid, lol01:11
* NCommander sleeps soundly waiting for LP to return :-)01:15
StevenKcalc: Unbind it01:16
cjwatsonyeah, bzr unbind01:17
ogragrmbl01:17
StevenKcalc: Maybe 'bzr log --local' works too01:17
cjwatsonyou can bzr push and bzr bind again later01:17
ograi uploaded at 23:52 UTC ... no trace that LP got it in time01:17
cjwatsonit won't have vanished, it'll be in the queue01:18
ograyeah, indeed01:18
cjwatsoneven if you had got an acceptance it wouldn't have been published anyway01:18
ograbut i wont know if it built01:18
StevenKogra: If you're worried, one of us can poke on cocoplum01:18
cjwatsonI imagine they'd just taken the cron jobs down in preparation01:18
ograyeah01:18
* StevenK runs to the doctors01:19
* ogra watxhes "blow up" on tv ...01:19
calcah ok01:19
calcbzr log --local doesn't seem to work for me, maybe after i finish upgrade to intrepid though01:20
kirklandslangasek: launchpad just started responding for me, fwiw01:21
slangasekkirkland: ok, please test lp:~ubuntu-core-dev/pam/ubuntu :)01:21
TheMusoyeah working here too.01:22

calcits always good to be early ;)01:26
slangasekaugh, why did cracklib break01:26
* slangasek shoots the cracklib packges01:26
* directhex offers a convenient c# version of cracklib01:30
* NCommander shoots C#01:31
* directhex hands NCommander vb.net instead01:32
* NCommander bursts into flames01:32
slangasekoh, geez; this is the worst bashism I've ever seen01:37

slangasektrue in bash and false in dash \o/01:37
directhexwith #!/bin/sh ?01:38
TheMusoew01:38
cjwatsonadd it to DashAsBinSh?01:38
directhexi thought intel were bad. do they still "support" ubuntu for their compilers as long as you replace the /bin/sh symlink?01:39

kirklandslangasek: i did "bzr branch lp:~ubuntu-core-dev/pam/ubuntu"02:00

stgrabercalc: it's the new "me too" feature of LP, you probably are on edge02:05
Hobbseegreetings02:06
calcstgraber: ok02:07
nxvlhi Hobbsee02:07
Hobbseehey nxvl!02:07
* Hobbsee celebrates that the uni has unblocked some of their ports again02:07
nxvli saw you are going to UDS this time!02:07
stgraberHobbsee: oh, as in 6667 ? :)02:07
* nxvl is at the university using an open 21 for ssh connections and ssh tunnels02:08
Hobbseestgraber: nah.  993, etc.02:08
Hobbseestgraber: i have an irc proxy, so don't use 6667 from my laptop.02:08
slangasekkirkland: ok, let me know how that goes :)02:08
stgraberok02:08
Hobbseenxvl: indeed!02:09
stgrabernxvl: oh, they let ftp go through their firewalls, that's good :) (for you)02:09
kirklandslangasek: aha!02:10
kirklandslangasek: that's looking together02:10
slangasek@yay02:10
kirklandslangasek: looking better02:10
stgrabernxvl: I used to connect on a Windows network with everything blocked except the proxy server ... so I had to use ntlmaps to connect to the ISA proxy (using NTLM), then use ssh over https on port 443 and finally openvpn over tcp going through a ssh tunnel to get complete internet access :)02:10
stgraber(all that scripted, it's not that difficult to setup and quite fast actually)02:11
nxvlyeah02:11
kirklandslangasek: but now quite there yet02:11
kirklandslangasek: checking the current password now does the right thing02:11
nxvli have no proxy, just port blocking, so it's some steps less02:11
kirklandslangasek: it fails immediately, with the wrong password02:12
slangasekhuzzah02:12
kirklandslangasek: but hit <enter> 6 times for the new password02:12
kirkland"No password supplied" x 302:12
nxvli just need an ssh running on 21, 80 or 443, and a lot of tunnels (on my .ssh/config)02:12
kirklandthen "password updated successfully"02:12
=== emma is now known as joe-the-plumber
Hobbseestgraber: these guys were allowing 22, 443, and 80 for a while.  Only.02:12
nxvland i'm done02:12

kirklandemma: :-)02:13
TheMusocrimsun: Did you try my interim Xsession.d fix to reduce the race condition's possibility?02:13
kirklandemma: $1000 says he lives on "Main Street"02:13
kirklandemma: "Not Wall Street"02:13
crimsunTheMuso: yes, and it helps.  I haven't been able to trigger the race yet.02:13
nxvlHobbsee: for a geek it's only needed some imagination and patience02:13
TheMusocrimsun: Ok.02:14
Hobbseenxvl: that's true.02:14
nxvlHobbsee: there is no no-geek sysadmin that can make us be quiet02:14
Hobbseehehe02:14
nxvland even some geek sysadmins that can't02:14
crimsunTheMuso: OTOH, with current pulseaudio packages (i.e., no interim Xsession.d fix), the race on my machine is, at best, very difficult to trigger.  Seems it nondeterministically triggers once every twenty or so logins.02:15
TheMusocrimsun: Right.02:15
TheMusocrimsun: I am the same, but I can never trigger it.02:15
slangasekkirkland: ok, wheels turning in the noggin'; I may have to wait until after dinner to fix that02:15
slangasek(if I'm right about how to fix it at all, that is)02:15
kirklandslangasek: k02:16
crimsunLaney: how many audio devices are in your computer (experiencing the pulseaudio race on session login)?02:16
stgrabernxvl: well, the only thing that could have stopped my hack is some packet analysing (basicalling detecting that I'm not sending http over SSL but something else) that needs quite a powerful firewall to do and a lot of tweaking02:18
stgrabernxvl: so not really an option on a big network :)02:18
ScottKslangasek: It's been a couple of hours, so I'm asking again about kdepim in hardy-backports.02:20
nxvlstgraber: or a real proxy rejecting non http traffic, but for that we have http tunneling :P02:20
slangasekScottK: right, looking :)02:20
nxvlstgraber: or a traffic analyzer and someone reading the logs and seeing what's going on and rejecting that connection, which is hard for any network02:21
ScottKslangasek: Thanks.02:21
stgrabernxvl: well, I was over HTTPS so the "rejecting non http traffic" is not possible as it only sees HTTPS (and the purpose of https is to not have man in the middle thing possible) :)02:23
NCommanderSo Canonical loves REVU02:23
stgrabernxvl: so a very well configured traffic analyser can detect that from the packet size and some other parameters (I remember reading about that) but it's not that easy to do and a real wast of CPU in most case02:23
NCommanderhttp://revu.ubuntuwire.com/ - try logging in and look at the login page02:23
slangasekScottK: accepted02:24
nxvlstgraber: that's why you need a real geeky sysadmin02:24

kirklandslangasek: another pam question for you when you come back from dinner02:56
kirklandslangasek: i have some people complaining that their ~/Private directories are being unmounted by their cronjobs02:58
kirklandslangasek: pam_ecryptfs is in the common-session stack, and cron opens/closes a session02:59
kirklandslangasek: the close session unmounts ~/Private02:59
kirklandslangasek: the current work-around is for those users to rm ~/.ecryptfs/auto-umount, which umount.ecryptfs_private checks for03:01
kirklandslangasek: but that disables automatic unmounting across the board03:01
kirklandslangasek: that's not ideal03:03
kirklandslangasek: a counter, has been suggested, but i'm not sure that's the best approach03:04
calccrap my upgrade to intrepid now won't boot03:29
mrooneycalc: no more bugs, then!03:30
calcmrooney: yea sorta03:33
calclooks like i will need to download and completely reinstall03:35
cjwatsoncalc: :-(03:40
cjwatsontry the live CD just as a checkpoint?03:40
cjwatsonit'd be odd if a boot failure was due to upgrade vs. fresh install, though it's not unheard of03:41
kirklandslangasek: actually, i'm wondering, perhaps we should drop pam_ecryptfs from common-session?  would common-auth and common-password suffice?03:41
cjwatsonthough if it is due to upgrade vs. fresh install, then it should be rectifiable in-place03:41
MacSlowI'm trying to get a custom kernel going and currently hang at the initrd-creation-step ...03:42

crimsunTheMuso: have you settled on patching pulseaudio instead of libcanberra0.6?  I'm wondering if it doesn't make sense to touch the latter instead for intrepid...04:01
calci managed to revive it04:01
calci booted off 8.04 cd and remade the initramfs and that seemed to fix it04:01
TheMusocrimsun: I am unsure as to what we could do with libcanberra.04:01

calcStevenK: ok04:02
Hobbseei thought it was a more local problem.  apaprently not.04:03
calcso maybe the initramfs did nothing then, just trying to reboot probably fixed it04:03
crimsunTheMuso: perhaps I'm hitting a different bug, but all of my crashes have been with "GNOME Login", which would be from libcanberra-login-sound.desktop's canberra-gtk-play invocation04:03
TheMusocrimsun: crash as in segfault?04:03
crimsunTheMuso: apparently, and it seems to be caused by the same race04:04

calchow do you see the me-too status of a bug?04:05
calcor is it just a feel good button? :)04:06
Hobbseecalc: you can't.04:06
Hobbseecalc: eventually, they say they'll do something with it - but not actually let you see the raw numbers.04:06
calchmm ok, so its turned on but of no use at all04:06
calclol04:07
Hobbseeit has the aim of making people not write "me too" and such in bug reports.04:08
calcHobbsee: and instead since no one can see the stats a developer has no idea how widespread the bug is04:09
calcespecially if users actually start using this placebo button ;-)04:09
slangasekkirkland: I have no idea whether pam_ecryptfs should be dropped from common-session; it would have no effect on this bug, and I don't think it's a great idea to make changes there at this point if we don't have a specific bug in mind04:10
slangasekkirkland: oh, you said that earlier, sorry :) - I don't know if it should be dropped from common-session, then04:10
calcHobbsee: the main usefulness of such a button would be to get the info out of the comment log, it is still very useful to know their launchpad id's and the overall number (raw number whatever)04:11
Hobbseecalc: you'd have thought so, but...04:11
Hobbseecalc: i just heard this.  I don't have much to do in LP development.04:11
calcdoing it the way it currently is useful to no one really at all04:12
calcless comments in a bug without any way to see its due to this button is actually worse than before04:12
Hobbseecalc: you could try to get that POV across to #lp, in a few hours, if you wanted.  No guesses on your chance of success, though04:15
TheMusocrimsun: do you get that crash even with the pulse Xsession.d fix?04:17
calcHobbsee: probably would be easier to just do it at UDS04:17
calcits only about 6 weeks from now04:18
kirklandslangasek: okay, i need to think more about this later04:19
ScottKcalc: This button got discussed at the last UDS.  They seem to have proceeded anyway.04:23
ScottKcalc: Currently it's pre-production.  If you wait until UDS it'll be "Everyone is used to it now, we can't change it".04:24
slangasekkirkland: ok, I don't seem to be able to reproduce the earlier bug with other optional modules besides ecryptfs, testing now with ecryptfs04:25
calcScottK: a button that does nothing or a button that can collect data?04:25
calcScottK: i don't recall them planning on a useless button at the last UDS04:25
beunocalc, ScottK, it should soon start showing up in listings as an icon, for the most user-affected bugs. I don't know what the exact status of that branch is. I also know there are plans to figure out what the best way to provide that information for bug triagers is, probably through the API.04:26
kirklandslangasek: it also works with current = (correct), new1 = foo, new2 = bar04:26
beunoplease, file bugs with what would make it more useful for you guys  :)04:26
slangasekkirkland: "works", or "triggers the bug"?04:26
ScottKcalc: Trying to have a 'me too' button instead of having people comment.  Next step in the master plan is to have Confirmed disappear as a status.04:27
kirklandslangasek: triggers the "password updated successfully" report04:27
Hobbseebeuno: will the bugs be looked at promptly?04:27
Hobbseebeuno: or will they wait 6+ months?04:27
beunoHobbsee, don't be mean!  they will be looked at soon, and something will be done to make the feature more useful for you guys, which is why it was done in the first place04:28
beunothe implementation is just being made in smaller steps04:28
calcbeuno: ok, it would be very useful to have some way to get at the names/total number from the page as well04:28
Hobbseebeuno: right.  And i'm not being mean, i'm more just used to reality.  I'm pleased to see the bug I filed in sevilla (april 07, iirc) about an implemented feature has finally been triaged.04:28
calcScottK: then just get rid of bug reporting entirely :)04:29
ScottKcalc: That's the best way to get the count to zero.04:29
calcScottK: heh04:29
slangasekkirkland: ok - it seems to be pam_ecryptfs specifically that returns PAM_SUCCESS in this case when no password token has been set04:29
beunocalc, right, there are some concerns that the feature may be used to blackmail developers into fixing certain bugs, so we want to be careful with it04:29
slangasekkirkland: why doesn't pam_ecryptfs return PAM_IGNORE?04:29
ScottKbeuno: In most projects 'having something useful' is something you do before fielding it.04:29
kirklandslangasek: ignorance on our (ecryptfs-devel) part, probably04:30
beunocalc, so, we want to make it useful, but be careful not to shoot ourselves in the foot04:30
kirklandslangasek: i'll look at that tomorrow04:30
beunoScottK, sure. I guess this isn't most projects04:30
calcbeuno: blackmail?04:30
ScottKThat's for sure.04:30
calcbeuno: ah you mean vote stuffing, i guess?04:30
* RAOF presumes "blackmail" means "gaming the system for fun and profit"04:30
beunocalc, yes. "1103 users voted for this, you should fix it!"04:31
calcheh04:31
Hobbseebeuno: now that sounds like brainstorm.04:32
calci'm sure large numbers of users would vote for put OOo 3.0 in intrepid, but its not happening :)04:32
beunoright, so, I think the proposed solution is to show in the listings, with an icon, the top 5% or so04:32
calcbeuno: could make the number only visible by bug squad or something if that is a concern04:32
beunoand maybe provide actual counts or something similar through the API04:32
tedgcalc: Is there a PPA for OO.o 3?04:33
beunobut, please, take with a grain of salt, I'm not 100% sure where the discussion is04:33
calctedg: yes ~openoffice-pkgs04:33
ScottKbeuno: It sounds like a very elaborate attempt to hide information that's actually useful.04:33
tedgcalc: Cool, thanks.04:33
calctedg: will most likely go into backports around the beginning of Dec04:33
tedgcalc: I'm working on making my system unstable before the jaunty archive opens ;)04:33
beunoScottK, I'm with you in the elaborate part04:34
beunothere's a lot of things to consider04:34
beunoI'm sure we'll work out something04:34

slangasekkirkland: ok.  I think that's the reason for this behavior; I'm going to have a closer look at pam_ecryptfs code, and if that conclusion stands, I'll go ahead and upload these pam changes and we can look at ecryptfs tomorrow04:35
beunocalc, Hobbsee, so, if you guys can file bugs with your concerns, or even ideas, it would be great, and I promise to chase up answers for them if you don't get any soon04:36
Hobbseebeuno: ok, cool.04:36
beunowe have a big 2 week sprint coming up from next week on04:36
beunoso response times may vary a bit04:37
ajmitchbeuno: another long flight for you? :)04:37
beunobut I'll keep an eye out for bugs on this, feel free to subscribe me04:37
beunoajmitch, heh, yeah. But it's only 16hs this time!04:37
calcbeuno: is it possible to make something only visible on a bug page by a certain group?04:37
calcbeuno: so we could have the stat there but only by eg bug squad or something like that, then have it available via api for whoever wants it there as well04:38
beunocalc, I suspect that it would involve special-casing a team in LP, and would be very hard to convince anyone to do something like that. APIs are less user-visible, so it's less of a risk.04:39
beunoI'm not saying no04:39
beunoand, in no way do I decide any of this04:39
beunoso give it shot04:39
calcbeuno: ok04:39
ajmitchthere's already special-casing on changing bugs04:39
ScottKbeuno: I already gave my feedback at UDS.  No reason to waste time on it now.04:39
calcbeuno: oh another feature i want is the ability to delete packages from a bug04:40
calc:)04:40
beunois it christmas already?  :p04:40
Hobbseeoh, now there's an idea...04:40
calcwell i found a real bug that could be fixed by allowing that04:40
Hobbseecalc: you can already do that, though.  entirely obtuse, though04:40
beunoI know that's a common headache, not sure why it's still there04:40
beunoor if there's a bug open for it, which I suspect it is04:41
calcfor eg openoffice.org any bug assigned to openoffice.org2 gets autoreassigned to openoffice.org but it fails if it already is assigned to openoffice.org as well via a separate package entry04:41
calcHobbsee: how do you delete it?04:41
Hobbseecalc: edit it, take out the package field.  then it just gets assigned to ubuntu.04:42
calcHobbsee: ugh that isn't a real solution04:42
calcHobbsee: i'm sure bdmurray would like to remind you about that ;-)04:43
Hobbseecalc: it's a workaround :)04:43
Hobbseecalc: ah well.  Maybe he needs more agressive mail filtering :P04:43
calcin this particular case it caused a hardy task to get opened and i couldn't even mark it invalid becaue it would try to rename the package entry which won't work04:43
Hobbseeah yes, there's no way back from nominate for release.04:44
calci didn't even nominate it for openoffice.org2, i nominated it on the other package entry for openoffice.org04:45
calcand i wasn't trying to remove it, i can't even mark the bug as invalid under openoffice.org2 because it tries to rename it to openoffice.org and fails04:46
calcer i mean remove it from nomination04:46

sistpoty|workslangasek: FYI current delegates are listed in https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2008-September/026306.html10:45
seb128indeed10:45
ograi definately enabled gconf-editor on that device10:45
ograbut had to re-renable it now10:46
slangaseksistpoty|work: ok; perhaps I should've referenced that page in the freeze announcement, ohwell :/10:46
slangaseksistpoty|work: but I assume most of the affected people already know who they need to go to :)10:46
ograseb128, could it be that fusa runs something to restore defaults in its postinst ?10:46
sistpoty|workslangasek: yes, I assume so as well10:46
ograbecause i also had the fusa logout change message10:46
ogra(without having a logout item in the panel on mobile)10:47
seb128ogra: no10:48
seb128ogra: and menus items are in .local not in gconf anyway10:48
ograseb128, i used gconf-editor before the reboot from the menu ....10:49
seb128ogra: do you have a gconf-editor item in .local?10:49
StevenKogra: Oh, what is happening with libflashsupport?10:49
seb128.local/share/applications10:49
ograafter reboot i had the fusa message, when i went to the menu then the editor was gone10:49
ograseb128, well, i enabled it again, so indeed there is a .desktop file now10:50
seb128ogra: way to go for debugging ...10:50
ograseb128, but i'm pretty sure i had more items customized, gconf-editor is the only thing in that dir now10:50
seb128ogra: you should try to figure what was wrong before workarounding the bug10:51
seb128ogra: ok, so something cleaned your .local10:51
ograseems like10:51
seb128ogra: the layout migration does only very selective gconf changes so that's doubtfully it10:51
ograand i assume update-gconf-defaults is safe and doesnt do such stuff either10:52
seb128ogra: it touchs only system gconf locations10:52
seb128there is no packaging tools changing .local in any way10:52
mvoogra: if you just saw the message and did not click on "update" then nothing happend to your gconf, its just a message. if you did click, then not a lot happend either :)10:53
ograyeah10:53
cjwatsonliw: ooh, system-cleaner promoted. Now where are we seeding it?10:53
ogramvo, i sadly didnt click, i should have to see what happens on mobile10:53
ograsince we dont have any logout item on the panel10:53
mvoogra: it would have told you "no logout button found, please update manually"10:53
ograah, good10:54
mvoogra: no worries, defensive code10:54
ograwouldnt affect new installs anyway, but i was slightly worried about the handfull of testers getting their panel setup trashed :)10:54
mvoogra: the migrate-fusa-config.py would not do that, run the trash-panel-setup.py instead10:55
ograthough that gconf thing is pretty weird ... and i dont really see a way to reproduce it10:55
ograhaha10:55
mvoogra: seriously, we had oddness with gconf defualts in the past10:55
ograright, i remember that10:55
mvobut we never managed to reproduce it or get any clue why some defaults would not update10:55
ograthough i wouldnt know why anything would touch .local10:55
seb128in this case that's not a gconf issue10:56
seb128but local datas which vanished10:56
mvostuff in ~ should really be safe10:56
seb128are you sure you didn't clean those?10:56
ograseb128, well, as i said, i looked at the gconf key for the wallapaper using gconf-editor from the menu10:56
seb128I don't deny that10:57
ograthen i rebooted and my menu missed the systemtools category10:57
seb128but there is nothing touching .local10:57
seb128so it's weird that it got changed10:57
seb128did you get a fsck running?10:57
ograthe only thing i did before looking at the menu was confirming the fusa question10:57
ogranope10:57
seb128either that's a local issue10:58
ograi'll watch for it on other upgrades10:58
seb128or ted added some code to clean your menus because you were complaining about fusa yesterday ;-)10:59
ogragconf-editor is enabled on all my systems usually, i will notice if it goes away10:59

kwwiitedg: 16x1615:45
mvoRicardoPerez: I request a export now, it usually takes a bit until its done (some hours)15:45
RicardoPerezmvo: Oh, sounds great!15:45
RicardoPerezmvo: I'll take a look, but sounds very interesting :)15:45
kwwiitedg: but that icon does not exist at that size15:45
RicardoPerezmvo: Thank you very much for the update request!15:46
kwwiitedg: and the svg is also square so it cannot come from that either15:46
tedgkwwii: So that's probably why it's getting cropped.  Pulling in a larger one and trying to make it 16px15:46
mvoRicardoPerez: I need to write something about it, it was done Nyitrai and should really make the translation work for the package descriptions easier15:46
mvo(hopefully :)15:46
mvothank RicardoPerez15:46
kwwiitedg: yeah, could be15:46
RicardoPerezmvo: "ok" means "translated"?15:46
mvoRicardoPerez: yes15:47
RicardoPerezmvo: great, it's a very useful tool!15:47
Riddellpersia: you uploaded casper?  editing ubiquity-gtkui.desktop at the end of that script won't help for the copy in ~/Desktop15:47
RicardoPerezwell, thanks again, bye!15:48
jdongRiddell: while you're here, can you comment on tedg and my discussion regarding GNOME's fast user switching applet?15:48
RicardoPerezmvo: btw, are you into Compiz developing, too?15:48
persiaRiddell, Yeah, but nothing in ~/Desktop is visible in Ubuntu MID, so I don't really care.15:48
RicardoPerezs/developing/development/g15:48
mvoRicardoPerez: I maintain the packages15:48
mvo(well, with the compiz team)15:49
RicardoPerezmvo: I've found that compiz takes too much time to start during GNOME startup... Makes GNOME idles for about 4-5 seconds15:49
RicardoPerezwhat can be done with that bugreport?15:50
Riddellpersia: ok, accepting15:50
jdongRicardoPerez: I've always wondered what that lag is, too.15:50
jdongit's not really an idle as much as it is a UI hang15:50

ubottuLaunchpad bug 284366 in gnome-session "GNOME has ~4 seconds idle during startup" [Low,Incomplete]15:50
mvoRicardoPerez: I have not profiled it, but I strongly suspect its the xml parsing it does on startup15:50
Riddelljdong: seems like a gnomey change, what do you want me to add?15:50
RicardoPerezjdong: so you've see that issue, right?15:51
jdongRiddell: something along the lines that if tedg takes the time to code up that, then release team will allow the upload15:51
RicardoPerezmvo: great, I don't know if that bugreport should be redirected from gnome-session to compiz...15:51
ScottKjdong: Can you go ahead and get intrepid-backports set up?  asac is interested in pushing Firefox-3.1 packages there ASAP after release.15:51
jdongRicardoPerez: yes. on all of my systems. I think it's something related with AIGLX15:51
jdongScottK: ok. That's probably an infinity job, right?15:51
RicardoPerezjdong: but I'm not using AIGLX, but NVIDIA15:52
ScottKjdong: Dunno.  You're Mr. Backports.15:52
jdongRicardoPerez: I haven't looked at the code yet for compiz. it for me happens after compiz takes over the UI, hanging all of the windows for some time15:53
jdongRicardoPerez: you can see that from running compiz --replace15:53
RicardoPerezjdong: "compiz --replace" from metacity, right?15:53
jdongRicardoPerez: or from compiz itself.15:53
RicardoPerezjdong: mmm, ok, let's see15:53
jdongRicardoPerez: for me it takes about 2.5secs of fidgeting around before it settles15:54
jdongsimilar to what's done on login15:54
Riddelljdong, tedg: having g-p-m check for dbus periodically seems the sensible thing to do, I expect it would get accepted if it was suitably tested, ScottK just did a similar fix in our g-p-m15:54
ScottKI extracted the interval of 30 seconds from the usual place and used that.15:55
tedgRiddell: It doesn't need to poll, just listen to DBus namechange requests.15:55
tedgRiddell: You guys have a copy of gpm that's different?15:55
ScottKWe have Guidance Power Manager15:55
ScottKTotally different beast with an unfortunately similar arcroynm15:55
RicardoPerezwow. sorry. crash after compiz --replace15:56
tedgScottK: Ah, okay.  How confusing.15:56
tedgIt was kinda like them replacing gnome-vfs with gvfs.15:56
RicardoPerezwell, not exactly a crash, but renders all the windows unusable15:56
jdongRicardoPerez: sounds like a bug :)15:56
RicardoPerezjdong: I've done "compiz --replace", but it isn't take 5 seconds, but < 215:57
jdongRicardoPerez: right, but that's after startup with no activity15:57
RicardoPerezhowever, the bug I reported appears even when you log out & log in then...15:58
RicardoPerezjdong: I've just done "compiz --replace" again, and all works OK, without idle15:58
RicardoPerezjdong: I just repeated "compiz --replace" one more time, and again I had no idle15:59
RicardoPerezjdong: however, If I log out and log in again, I have a ~5 seconds idle...15:59

amitkmdz: i didn't suggest a quirk to select the driver. I suggested removing certain PCI IDs from the driver if they didn't work. But for the ath5k this is moot until rtg rolls out the wireless backports. ath5k has known issues in 2.6.27.17:37

=== cprov-lunch is now known as cprov
asacamitk: whats the idea of these "backports" driver packages. i understand that everything that comes late goes there, but how does this fix normal users? is there an easy mechanism so users that have issues can switch to the backport modules?17:45
amitkasac: backports will not be a default install. Users experiencing problems with the in-kernel drivers can choose to try out new drivers from backports. But they are not heavily tested. We've used backports to supply users with latest alsa and wireless bits before.17:47
asacamitk: ok. so backport modules are not something that help the normal user experience.17:48
amitkasac: not out of the box.17:49
asaci understood that. just wondered why we ship them or if there is a way we communicate to the user "hey, your current card doesnt work, but you could try the backports"17:49
amitkasac: i don't know of any formal communication about it. So these suggestions are made or IRC/Mailing lists/Forums, etc. No jockey-like interface.17:51
asaci see17:51
amitkhope that answers your question...17:51
asacamitk: its just that it sometimes feels a bit like: "well, some chipsets just dont work. as long as we have backports this isnt really release critical"17:52
asacof course thats an exaggeration ... so excuse that ;)17:53
asacit just means that for an "outsider" like me its not really obvious when wireless breakage is considered release critical and when a fix in backports is enough17:54
amitkasac: if a 'few' patches fixed a driver to make it work we would apply it to the ubuntu tree. Backports are usually done when there are significant changes to the underlying subsystem so that while fixing newer chipsets it also introduces regressions.17:55
amitkasac: in the above case, rtg is planning to just grab upstream wireless.git (that will probably be merged in 2.6.28) and compile it against 2.6.27.17:56
asacamitk: ok thats understood17:56
asacamitk: but when does the kernel team consider a problem critical enough to do a proper fix in the current stable tree17:56
asaceven if it might not be trivial?17:56
sharms_are there any downsides if I run intrepid using ld.so.nohwcap?17:57
asaca problem == a problem in wireless17:57

ograamitk, so ath5k wil be removed from -generic as well ?17:59
amitkasac: alright :)17:59
amitkogra: no. In case of the Q1 I only intended to remove the pci id for that particular chip in the Q1.18:00
ograok18:01
asacamitk: and go for ndiswrapper instead? (when the driver isnt loaded)18:01
asacor what is the other option for ath5k users?18:01
amitkasac: madwifi?18:02

pittitkamppeter: /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/jockey/detection.py, line 562; remove the 'architectures': 'noarch'18:20

tkamppeterThank you, pitti, now it works (the 10 minutes passed).18:24

tkamppeterpitti, I have done so and it told that the process has already gone away.18:25

tkamppeters/aplix/splix/18:26

tkamppeterpitti, it would be great if you could fix that, because released versions and development snapshots of the same driver usually have the same package name but only a different version number.18:29
cjwatsonjust happened to notice it in an upgrade18:29
pittitkamppeter: right, that's my plan (disambiguate by version number)18:29
tkamppeterpitti, for the test case of two drivers I have requested an HP now, as they are supported by HP's PPDs and by Gutenprint.18:31
pittithat should work, yes18:31
tkamppeterpitti, some small details:18:36
tkamppeter1. If one of the multiple drivers is recommended, the selection should be on that driver, either by positioning it or by putting the recommended driver to the top.18:37
tkamppeter2. Can you simply change the font of the license window to Courier and make it so wide that 89 characters per line fit into it?18:37
tkamppeterIf you cannot change the font, Make it simply much wider, so that the probability of too long lines gets negligible.18:38
tkamppeters/89/80/18:38
tkamppeter3. If I switch forth and back between the two drivers the line with the driver description at the top of the lower big box (gray part, over "Not tested by Ubuntu developers") does not change. It simply stays one of the two.18:41
pittitkamppeter: what dbus-send command did you use? I'll try to reproduce 318:43
tkamppeterdbus-send --print-reply --dest=com.ubuntu.DeviceDriver /GUI com.ubuntu.DeviceDriver.search_driver string:"printer_deviceid:MFG:Hewlett-Packard;MDL:HP LaserJet 3020;CMD:PJL,MLC,PCL,POSTSCRIPT,PCLXL"18:47
tkamppeterpitti, it is the command which you gave me earlier.18:48
pittiah, that one18:48
slangasekkirkland: mmm, no; you get to pam_ecryptfs because the way pam_chauthtok() works is to make two passes through the password stack, once with PAM_PRELIM_CHECK set and once with PAM_UPDATE_AUTHTOK set18:49
kirklandslangasek: k18:50
kirklandslangasek: i'm looking at pam's modules/pam_cracklib/pam_cracklib.c18:50
slangasekkirkland: and one of the things Linux-PAM does, that's not in the original spec, is to "freeze" the module stack for the second run so that it always matches what was done in the first run; that means any module that was seen on the first pass will also be seen on the second pass, regardless of return codes18:51
cjwatsonlool: re xorg 1:7.4~5: FWIW debconf doesn't care if you output random junk to stderr18:51
kirklandslangasek: nice, handles racey config changes18:51
slangasekkirkland: however, I think it's because pam_ecryptfs doesn't give different return codes for the two passes that the stack winds up returning success as a whole18:51
cjwatsonlool: IME you should usually use rmdir --ignore-fail-on-non-empty rather than 2>/dev/null18:51
kirklandslangasek: but i'm having this problem without pam_ecryptfs in the stack18:52
kirklandslangasek: you indicated that you were not able to reproduce it in that case?18:52
slangasekah, it's not for racey config changes; it's more difficult to explain, and I suspect that there are actually some subtle bugs there which I've never pinned down, but it's what we have to work with18:52
pittitkamppeter: ah, I get it, too; weird, I never saw this before, looking18:52
slangasekslytheri1: libxstream-java appears to already be half in universe for some reason; I'll clean that up18:53
kirklandslangasek: see modules/pam_cracklib/pam_cracklib.c, the block that handles MISTYPED_PASS18:53
kirklandslangasek: i see retval = PAM_AUTHTOK_RECOVERY_ERR, and then continue (rather than return)18:53
Mirvmvo: with nonlanguagepacktranslationfreeze, would there be time to a) sync from Debian to Ubuntu DDTP, this time from Debian main servers (or actually not ftp.debian.org but eg. ftp.de.debian.org), b) sync from there to Ubuntu repositories?18:53
pittitkamppeter: might be because of the <br> in the text or so; I guess I shuold just filter that out18:53
kirklandslangasek: it looks to me like the continue is to allow the user to try again18:53
kirklandslangasek: but that's not what's executing for me18:53
Mirvmvo: (ddtp.debian.net does not host the translations any more since they are nowadays properly mirrored)18:54
kirklandslangasek: i changed it to return PAM_AUTHTOK_RECOVERY_ERR18:54
kirklandslangasek: but that didn't quite fix it alone; so I'm recompiling shadow against the updated pam library18:55
slangasekkirkland: right, if I don't have pam_ecrytpfs in the stack, I'm not getting this bug.  You're reproducing it with cracklib, now?  I was leaving cracklib out, fo the sake of simplicity18:55
slangasekwhat does the full stack look like on the system where you're reproducing this without ecryptfs?18:56
kirklandslangasek: hrm, i was grepping for "password updated successfully", and that sent me to cracklib18:56
kirklandslangasek: though i do see another hit in unix18:56
kirklandslangasek: http://people.ubuntu.com/~kirkland/pam.d18:58
tkamppeterpitti, if there is no easy way of GTK rendering the tags correctly, filter them out, as they also look ugly when they do not get rendered.18:58
pittitkamppeter: that's what I did now, and it fixes 3); committed to trunk18:59
slangasekkirkland: how are you reproducing it with this stack?  pam_unix is the only module listed18:59
kirklandslangasek: sorry, i was grepping for "Sorry, passwords do not match"18:59
kirklandslangasek: passwd.  correct password.  enter first password.  enter different password19:00
kirklandslangasek: passwords do not match (which I thought was cracklib, but perhaps it's unix), then passwd says "updated successfully"19:00
slangasekok19:00
kirklandslangasek: okay, so i should be looking around MISTYPED_PASS in modules/pam_unix/support.c19:01
slangasekhmm, I think this would be one of the subtle bugs with the PAM chain freezing I mentioned :P19:02
kirklandslangasek: :-)19:02
slangasekpam_unix isn't doing anything wrong; it's the stack itself that does it19:02
tkamppeterpitti, great, and 1 and 2 should also be easy and as they do not change text content or UI logic it is also no problem after the freeze.19:02

slangasekkirkland: I think this part of the bug is intractable for intrepid; but I think we can still fix the ecryptfs case, which adds its own wrinkle19:03
kirklandslangasek: okay, i'm all ears;  though i'm surprised to hear you call the pam part "intractable" :-)19:04
slytheri1slangasek: thanks.19:04
slangasekkirkland: well, here are the constraints that we have to work with: we want a completely stackable system where no package's profile accidentally short-circuits the stack on either success or failure; that means that we avoid setting the stack's return value from any of the password-changing modules; so something has to set the return value, and that's pam_permit at the end19:06
pittitkamppeter: yes, already done19:07
pittitkamppeter: looking at 2 and 1 now19:07
slangasekkirkland: and pam_permit will /always/ return success, so when it returns it on the first pass, the PAM stack says "ok, this module matters and we should pay attention to it on the second pass", so it always sets the return value to success19:07
slangasekkirkland: correcting that means deep changes to how PAM handles the chain freezing for pam_chauthtok()'s two passes19:08
kirklandslangasek: okay; so from the pam_ecryptfs perspective, was that under no circumstances, prevent the rest of the PAM stack from operating as expected19:08
slangasekand I think I can give you that :)19:09
kirklandslangasek: and i think the PAM_SUCCESS we return was in the interest of that :-)19:09
slangasekit'll take me a couple of hours, though19:09
kirklandslangasek: the oneliner you posted isn't enough, then19:10
slangasekcorrect19:10

slangasekkirkland: X and ssh and login are interactive, cron and http are not? :)19:14
kirklandslangasek: :-)19:14
kirklandslangasek: for the counter, jdstrand suggested something in /tmp/USERNAME-ecryptfs/19:15
slangasekkirkland: interactive vs. noninteractive session handling is a longstanding request, I've acknowledged that the current setup is deficient here; it's just not bubbled up the priority list yet19:15
slangasekwhy in /tmp, instead of in the user's homedir?19:15
jdstrandactually, I suggested /tmp/ecryptfs-USERNAME/ :P19:15
kirklandslangasek: okay19:15
kirklandjdstrand: :-)  thanks for keeping me honest19:16
slangasekhmm, I guess if the homedir is NFS-mounted, the counter would easily be wrong19:16
kirklandslangasek: i think it was mostly about guranteeing a reset on reboot19:16
slangasekok19:16
kirklandslangasek: we started out thinking /var/run19:16

cjwatsonpsusi: the log of its operation is here: http://people.ubuntu.com/~ubuntu-archive/removals.txt20:26
cjwatson------------------- Reason -------------------20:27
cjwatson(From Debian) RoM; orphaned upstream and out of sync with common ext2/3 features20:27
cjwatsondate was Fri, 30 Nov 2007 12:13:52 +000020:27
psusiit seemed to be in good working order the last time I updated it...20:27
cjwatsonso presumably as part of the initial sync passs20:27
cjwatsonpass20:27
cjwatsonpsusi: might depend on what features you have on your filesystems ...20:27
cjwatsonat a guess, perhaps it doesn't handle resize_inode?20:27
cjwatsonlibparted has that failing too20:27
psusiI think I fixed that...20:27
cjwatsonfeel free to reintroduce it (in jaunty) if you think it should be, but it might be a good idea to track down the people who asked for it to be removed from Debian and debate it with them,20:28
cjwatsons/,$//20:28
psusioh wow... it WAS removed from debian.... hrm...20:29
psusiwell, I know it had issues with the ext3 jornal, and something else... might have been the resize inode... I forget now... I fixed it up 2 years ago and I think I filed the patch with a bug report in debian but I don't think anyone there ever applied it so their version was still broken20:30
liwhmm. is it possible for a graphics card to break in such a way that it seems to work quite well, but occasionally freezes and colors go quite strange (as if it didn't produce green anymore)?20:31
psusiliw: if one of the colors goes out and you have a CRT, it is usually just a loose connection to the monitor20:32
psusibut yea, it's possible20:32
liwit's a tft, and the connectors are tightly screwed, I check that twice20:32
cjwatsonpsusi: Debian bugs #396449 and #401622 seem particularly relevant20:32
liw(tft with vga, though)20:32
ubottuDebian bug 396449 in defrag "Re: e2defrag - Unable to allocate buffer for inode priorities" [Grave,Closed] http://bugs.debian.org/39644920:32
ubottuDebian bug 401622 in defrag "Not ready to release, too much bitrot, breaks new ext2/3 features" [Grave,Closed] http://bugs.debian.org/40162220:32
cjwatsonpsusi: the first of those is an explicit request from the e2fsprogs maintainer to remove defrag20:33
cjwatsonpsusi: so I suggest you argue with him :)20:33
cjwatsonpsusi: your changelog in https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/defrag doesn't mention resize_inode at all, which is a critical thing to support nowadays20:34
cjwatsonso I stand by the removal20:34
cjwatson(though I don't think I was the admin who did it)20:35
psusicjwatson: hehe, I guess I will... first I guess I need to rebuild it and do some more testing to make sure it still works... if it does, then I just need to point out to them that I did fix those issues and they just never applied them to debian20:35
psusiit is likely that it was just the generic issue of defrag not working properly with ANY reserved inodes, which I fixed20:36
psusiwhich was also why it clobbered the journal inode20:36
psusibut I'll make sure to make a test filesystem with resize support, then actually resize it, stress the hell out of it, and make sure defrag doesn't break it... then proceed from there20:37

pitticjwatson: oh, the "needs gcc-3.3" thing?20:49
cjwatsoncrimsun: yes, that doesn't exactly count as something that Debian can be blamed for missing if it was never sent to them20:49
pitticjwatson, superm1, bryce: what's actually the pressing reason to have it in restricted and not in multiverse?20:50
cjwatsoncrimsun: he said "I think I filed the patch with a bug report in debian but I don't think anyone there ever applied it so their version was still broken" above20:50
brycepitti, the specific issue is that this prevents it from being on the DVD20:50
dokoohh crap, is this a binary only, or is this a dependency of the driver package as well?20:50
pittibryce: ah, good point20:50
superm1pitti, <putting on dell hat> It significantly simplifies factory installation20:50
superm1being able to have it on the DVD20:50
* pitti doesn't understand how AMD can still use such an ancient libc++ for their current builds *sigh*20:51
superm1pitti, from what i understand, it's a single library in there that is used for it, not the whole thing20:51
pittiit would essentially force us to support gcc-3.3 ad infinitum20:51
pittisuperm1: is it actually the X driver, or just some shiny GUI configuration thingy?20:51
brycepitti: yeah we raised the issue a while back, but this was a minor issue compared with the Xorg 1.5 issue so didn't get priority20:51
superm1so I was saying perhaps if that single library can be split out to it's own package in multiverse20:51
psusicjwatson: well... I can't find it either... odd... I could have sworn I put it in there and bumped it one or twice in the subsequent 6 months... oh well20:51
superm1pitti, its the library that provides XvMC acceleration I believe20:52
pittisuperm1: right, if it's some setup tool, it could be split out, or libstc++5 could become a suggests or so20:52
brycesuperm1: I wouldn't have a problem seeing that slipt out20:52
pittibryce: what is XvMC? Xv is kind of important for watching videos..20:52
cjwatsonbryce: do we have to build-dep on it in order to build it, or do they ship a binary application?20:53
superm1pitti, so would the archive allow for that put source package and most binary packages in restricted,  a workaround in debian/rules for dpkg-shlibdeps complaining, and then another binary package in multiverse?20:53
brycepitti: X-video Motion Compensation20:53
cjwatsonsuperm1: yes, that's possible as long as it doesn't need to build-dep on libstdc++520:53
superm1it does currently have a  build-dep only because dpkg-shlibdeps looks for it20:53
pittisuperm1: yes, if it's just a binary dependency and not a build dep20:53
cjwatson(transitively or otherwise)20:53
superm1surely something can be added to not bail out when it complains about it not being around20:54
bryceI don't know a lot about it but I gather it's a performance enhancing thing, rather than a hard prerequisite for video playback20:54
cjwatson--ignore-missing-info I believe20:54
* pitti still remembers the time when he symlinked libc.so.6 to libc.so.5 just to get some old binary crap running20:54
amitkKeybuk: if you are still available can you join #ubuntu-kernel20:55
superm1bryce, i'll scrap the library out and see if I can still do video playback with some basic files20:55
superm1bryce, i'm pretty sure it's only necessary when you are doing accelerated playback20:56
brycesuperm1: great20:56

kirklandjdstrand: hey, ecryptfs counter design question for you21:48
jdstrandok21:48
kirklandjdstrand: i'm leaning toward making the counter only increment/decrement when called from PAM21:48
kirklandjdstrand: ie, not when called from the command line21:48
kirklandjdstrand: or, rather......21:48
kirklandjdstrand: that wasn't put very clearly21:49
kirklandjdstrand: okay, start over :-)21:49
kirklandjdstrand: i have the increment/decrement code mostly working, incrementing when mounting, decrementing when umounting21:49
* jdstrand nods21:50
kirklandjdstrand: now i'm thinking about the logic for "when to refuse to unmount based on counter value"21:50
kirklandjdstrand: i will want a "force" method, whereby it's unmounted and the counter zero'd out21:50
kirklandjdstrand: so i'm thinking ....21:51
kirklandjdstrand: should that "force" be the default (which is basically the current methodology), or the exeception (with some new --force option)21:52
dokoubuntu-archive: pleae could somebody accept sun-java6 (multiverse)21:52
kirklandjdstrand: if the former, I add some new option (--counter), and tack that onto the PAM call21:52
jdstrandkirkland: I think it needs to be a simple and straightforward as possible for now. also, I'm not sure I understand the need for pam to know about the counter stuff21:54
kirklandjdstrand: pam = automated call21:54
kirklandjdstrand: manually calling mount.ecryptfs_private, versus happening automatically21:54
jdstrandkirkland: what is the advantage of it in pam? (esp considering that other upstream people will likely have objections)21:54

cjwatsonRiddell: is that the one with the licence that says "The Work and any derivative works thereof only may be used or intended for use with the web services, computing platforms or applications provided by Amazon.com, Inc. or its affiliates, including Amazon Web Services LLC."?22:54
cjwatsonRiddell: that's non-free if so22:54
Riddellcjwatson: so it is, that's a perfectly nice licence apart from that paragraph22:56
cjwatsonRiddell: yeah, otherwise it's basically just BSD22:56
cjwatsonRiddell: although I'm not entirely sure about the patent termination clause - it's quite broad22:57
cjwatsonbut given the use restriction I didn't bother to investigate that22:57
dokoslangasek: all changes are merged, just the changelog entries are missing. I'll add these for the next upload22:57
Riddellmm right.  multiverse it is22:58
slangasekdoko: ok22:58
slangasekdoko: hmm, there seems to be a large delta under debian/ though, which seems like it might be the result of not having the latest Debian merge in?22:59
slangasekah, no, because 6-07-4 is a parent of both23:00

dokoall ok from my point of view. the last upload to ubuntu had a few *.log files left23:04

cjwatson(probably others too, that's just how I spotted it)23:14
slangasekScottK: this new kdvi upload ships a /usr/lib/libdjvu.so that doesn't seem to have been in the hardy version of the package23:38
slangasekScottK: (and a lot of other files)23:39
