jussi01 | anyone around? if so, can anyone point me to information about why we change libopenal in intrepid? ie. why it had an ABI change? | 10:17 |

smarter | ArneGoetje: https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/intrepid/+source/scim-bridge/0.4.14-2ubuntu4 << I don't understand this change, the new patch checks if scim-helper is running, but there is no binary named scim-helper on Ubuntu... | 14:56 |
smarter | so, the bug fixed by 0.4.14-2ubuntu1 is back | 14:56 |
smarter | and Kubuntu 8.10 has the 10/20 seconds at startup of each app | 14:56 |
smarter | did you test your change? | 14:56 |
smarter | ArneGoetje: just saw that the patch was completely disabled in fact, so my comment on scim-helper is not really relevant | 15:05 |
smarter | But we should revert to the state in -2ubuntu2 | 15:05 |
smarter | Riddell: ^ | 15:05 |
cjwatson | smarter: do you have the scim package installed? | 15:13 |
smarter | yes | 15:13 |
smarter | and skim | 15:13 |
cjwatson | smarter: I commented on the scim-helper thing when reviewing that change, but as you say the patch is disabled so it's not relevant | 15:13 |
cjwatson | Arne tells me skim should not be installed | 15:13 |
smarter | I tried removing skim but it doesn't work better | 15:13 |
cjwatson | as the bug in the changelog indicates, the state in -2ubuntu2 left GTK broken. We can't just revert to it | 15:14 |
smarter | wasn't -2ubuntu3 which broke GTK? | 15:14 |
cjwatson | I tested Arne's change in GTK when sponsoring it, but was unable to check KDE | 15:15 |
cjwatson | possible, I suppose | 15:15 |
munckfish | cjwatson: FYI just testing the desktop install CD for PS3 - not working :( - uses usplash of course which is one problem, second problem trying install_nosplash option is it can't mount /dev/loop0 or something - investigating | 15:15 |
cjwatson | munckfish: oh, will need to turn usplash off in cdimage too | 15:15 |
munckfish | cjwatson: ok | 15:16 |
cjwatson | ah, but that's no good if install_nosplash is broken ... | 15:16 |
smarter | cjwatson: according to the date of the bug, I'm pretty sure it's -2ubuntu3 which broke GTK | 15:16 |
smarter | so Riddell's change should be reverted | 15:16 |
munckfish | cjwatson: yep, I'm checking that out now will get logs and other info | 15:16 |
cjwatson | smarter: but he made that change for a reason, right? | 15:16 |
cjwatson | I'd like to know what that reason was! | 15:16 |
smarter | me too :P | 15:16 |
cjwatson | I don't approve of reverting changes without finding out what they were for | 15:17 |
munckfish | cjwatson: but good news is installed from alt installer on Friday night, the installer has a few scary moments but once installed everything is working lovely :D | 15:18 |
NCommander | hey munckfish | 15:18 |
cjwatson | smarter: so why would -2ubuntu2 help? all that did was just check whether scim is installed, and the dependency in -2ubuntu4 satisfies that without that patch applied | 15:18 |
cjwatson | smarter: in other words, -2ubuntu2 and -2ubuntu4 ought to be equivalent for KDE, aside from the focus fix | 15:19 |
munckfish | cjwatson: the one scary in the alt is it hangs for about 20/25 mins at 6% in "Selecting and installing software" section, watching the syslog it seems it's reading packages from the disk for about 10 mins with no log, then after a while it says "Extracting templates: 1%, ... 2% ... etc" | 15:20 |
munckfish | NCommander: hi! | 15:20 |
NCommander | munckfish, see my email to ubuntu-cell? | 15:21 |
munckfish | oh not yet | 15:21 |
munckfish | haven't got my email on | 15:21 |
munckfish | (checking) | 15:21 |
cjwatson | munckfish: anything that isn't a showstopper, I'm ignoring right now | 15:21 |
smarter | cjwatson: hmm, you're right, sorry, the bug is there in -2ubuntu2 too, but not on ubuntu3 on KDE | 15:22 |
cjwatson | right, and ubuntu3 broke GTK. | 15:22 |
cjwatson | so why isn't scim running? | 15:22 |
cjwatson | smarter: are you using a locale where you would expect to use an input method? | 15:22 |
smarter | nop, fr_FR | 15:23 |
munckfish | cjwatson: sure of course wondered if you would be surprised by it thats all | 15:23 |
cjwatson | munckfish: vaguely heard of it, not worried at the moment though | 15:23 |
cjwatson | smarter: ok, so I tested the same kind of scenario in GTK and it was fine | 15:23 |
cjwatson | i.e. scim not running | 15:23 |
smarter | if I launch scim-panel-kde or skim, it works | 15:24 |
cjwatson | so perhaps we should move the check in that patch to the Qt4 agent | 15:24 |
smarter | (no delay on startup) | 15:24 |
smarter | that looks like a good idea | 15:24 |
cjwatson | or I suppose alternatively we could actually fix the check (scim-helper-launcher IIRC) | 15:29 |
cjwatson | scim-helper-manager | 15:29 |
cjwatson | smarter: if you launch scim-panel-kde, is there a scim-helper-manager process running? | 15:30 |
smarter | yes | 15:30 |
cjwatson | smarter: would you be able to build a test package for me from source to try it out, or would you need me to give you test .debs? | 15:33 |
smarter | I know how to build a package ^^' | 15:33 |
smarter | (I'm a MOTU :P) | 15:33 |
smarter | and I'm on amd64 so your .debs would not help me I guess | 15:34 |
cjwatson | that would depend where I built it :-) | 15:34 |
cjwatson | smarter: in that case, try just applying http://people.ubuntu.com/~cjwatson/tmp/scim-bridge.debdiff to -2ubuntu4 | 15:35 |

cjwatson | have you tried in both fr_FR and in some locale that uses scim-bridge (e.g. zh_CN.UTF-8)? | 16:00 |

cjwatson | even smarter's CTCP VERSION output is broken, but apachelogger's isn't | 16:08 |
cjwatson | so perhaps smarter has some kind of "use my proprietary format" option checked | 16:08 |

zyga | hello, is there anyone interested in usb-creator && vmware && fixing small issue I have identified and resolved? | 18:56 |
zyga | I have found that attachning a USB disk enclosure does not allow you to make it bootable for some reason | 18:57 |
zyga | after digging for a second I found out that the issue is caused by HAL not thinking this device is removable, usb-creator does not consider non-removable devices | 18:57 |
zyga | I commented out that single dependency (on removability) and it appears to work fine | 18:58 |
persia | zyga, Surely that's a HAL bug though, rather than a usb-creator bug. | 19:03 |
zyga | persia: I'm going to report it for usb-creator first but I think you may be right | 19:05 |
zyga | still I'm not sure that usb-creator is doing the right thing to require removable devices | 19:05 |
persia | zyga, Hmm. Well, when would you want to use it for a non-removable device? | 19:06 |
persia | I can maybe see the use case for mmc cards (where the storage isn't removable, because the entire interface is removable), but that's somewhat of a corner case. | 19:06 |
PovAddict | on Windows, if I do "safe remove" on one of the drive letters from my memory card reader, it "unmounts" the card reader, not the card... can't use reader again until I reboot | 19:08 |
PovAddict | would my card reader be considered a removable device by Linux's HAL? (can I check?) | 19:09 |
zyga | PovAddict: yes you can check | 19:10 |
zyga | w8 | 19:10 |
zyga | PovAddict: I think you can use hal-device to see what hal thinks about your card reader | 19:11 |

NCommander | CarlFK, most libraries do | 21:50 |
PovAddict | almost six hundred packages | 21:50 |
NCommander | 738 | 21:50 |
PovAddict | 589 here :) | 21:51 |
* PovAddict has hardy | 21:51 | |
* NCommander runs intrepid | 21:51 | |
RainCT | error here xD | 21:51 |
NCommander | ahaha | 21:51 |
RainCT | E: Command line option 'd' [from -dbg] is not known. | 21:51 |
persia | And when there aren't -dbg packages, there are often -dbgsym packages available from ddebs.ubuntu.com | 21:51 |
CarlFK | hmm.. guess the count isn't what I was wondering ... just knowing about -dbg is all I need | 21:51 |
RainCT | ok, now 735 | 21:51 |
RainCT | (with \\-dbg) | 21:51 |
RainCT | NCommander: did you use \\- too or am I weird? :) | 21:54 |
NCommander | YOur just weird | 21:54 |
RainCT | ah k, that explains it all | 21:55 |

Rioting_pacifist | i have a pretty bad problem with lsusb #kubuntu and #linux wernt much help | 22:11 |
Rioting_pacifist | basically lsusb, lsmod, modprobe -r, rmmod all freeze up the terminal in which i use them (i can still type in it but nothing has any effect), i think its a pretty bad kernel bug and would like to try and find the cause to report it, any ideas? | 22:13 |
Rioting_pacifist | it was caused by loading up a beta webcam driver but i dont think freezing up the lsusb can be blamed on the driver | 22:14 |
johanbr | Sure it can. Buggy kernel modules can wreak all sorts of havoc. | 22:15 |
jdong | sounds like the module oopsed the kernel | 22:16 |
jdong | that's typically common of buggy kernel modules. | 22:16 |
jdong | look in dmesg for a stacktrace | 22:16 |
Rioting_pacifist | got the stacktrace, makes no sense to me should i pastebin it then pass it on to the webcam driver developers? | 22:18 |
