| fta | well, iirc, you can't lock prefs without obfuscating them | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| Lns | fta: I did that, according to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/19033/comments/25 | 00:02 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 19033 in firefox "systemwide default startup homepage ignored" [Medium,Confirmed] | 00:02 |
| Lns | what the heck is the reason for that, anyway? | 00:02 |
| fta | maybe hide the locked values from the users, not sure though | 00:04 |
| Lns | so weird | 00:04 |
| Lns | i wish there was some sort of control panel for global configuration of firefox | 00:05 |
| Lns | i would totally pay for that | 00:05 |
| fta | and remember that even locked, if the user already have set it to something else, your default won't work. you have to trash that from the user's profile | 00:05 |
| Lns | uhh...so it has to be a new prof. basically? | 00:06 |
| Lns | It didn't work like that in ff2 iirc | 00:07 |
| fta | hm.. | 00:07 |
| Lns | at least when it worked.. =p | 00:08 |
| fta | http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences | 00:10 |
| Lns | !!!!!!!! http://mit.edu/~firefox/www/maintainers/autoconfig.html | 00:10 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 00:10 |
| fta | "Edit all.js" looks wrong to me | 00:11 |
| fta | mozilla bug 448504 | 00:11 |
| ubottu | Mozilla bug 448504 in Application Update "Upgrade to FF3 and minor upgrades of FF3 cause all.js to be overwritten" [Normal,Resolved: invalid] http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=448504 | 00:11 |
| fta | "A much better way to achieve configuration locking is to create a *new* file in | 00:12 |
| fta | <install_dir>/greprefs/ or <install dir>/default/pref/, so long as the name is | 00:12 |
| fta | different from the files shipped with firefox and ends in .js, then add the | 00:12 |
| fta | pref("general.config.filename",..) line to that. This file won't be touched by | 00:12 |
| fta | the updater, and Mozilla apps will read all the files in this directory on | 00:12 |
| fta | startup." | 00:12 |
| Lns | fta: I did that :( no love | 00:14 |
| Lns | fta: actually i didnt try in .../default/pref, but looking on my system its actually .../defaults/preferences | 00:19 |
| Lns | why all of the dir/filename changes? | 00:19 |
| fta | "Slight correction - <install dir>/defaults/pref/ rather than .../default/..." | 00:19 |
| Lns | prefERENCES though | 00:19 |
| Lns | I can see how a lot of this stuff can get real confusing real quick | 00:20 |
| Lns | Heh, even here: http://mit.edu/~firefox/www/maintainers/config.html - prefs.js | 00:22 |
| Lns | Sets the default homepage (works around a bug where you can't set the default homepage via autoconfig). | 00:22 |
| Lns | why was this one pref so mangled... | 00:23 |
| fta | https://developer.mozilla.org/en/MCD,_Mission_Control_Desktop_AKA_AutoConfig | 00:36 |
| fta | no idea if those stuff are up-to-date | 00:36 |
| Lns | This is just insaaaaane | 00:37 |
| Lns | I see this in the link so it must be old: [root@b008-02 /usr/lib/firefox-1.5.0.2] | 00:38 |
| fta | we'd better read the sources. but not today, it's 1:40am here | 00:38 |
| Lns | np fta, thank you so much for looking into it | 00:43 |
| Lns | much appreciated | 00:43 |
| Lns | im off to get some food, havent eaten for almost 8 hours | 00:44 |
| isiah | can i ask a firefox ubuntu question here? | 04:00 |
| asac | jtv1: there? | 09:08 |
| jtv1 | asac: hi | 09:08 |
| asac | jtv1: we have http://people.ubuntu.com/~cjwatson/tmp/langpacks-c-format-msgfmt-output ... so somehow a bunch of translations have bad strings | 09:08 |
| jtv1 | asac: I know, I know! | 09:09 |
| asac | jtv1: what do you think is the easiest way to fix? cant we just remove custom translations | 09:09 |
| asac | jtv1: oh ... sorry for the double check then ;) | 09:09 |
| jtv1 | asac: we're discussing this in #distro | 09:09 |
| asac | jtv1: yeah ... you werent there ... at least not with tab ;) | 09:09 |
| asac | jtv1: you are still not in distro ,) | 09:10 |
| asac | anyway ... have to get some food... cu later | 09:10 |
| jtv1 | asac: bye | 09:10 |
| asac | if i only had less email traffic in my inbox ... i could get something done | 09:18 |

| BUGabundo | NM VPN is not working again | 11:45 |
| BUGabundo | PPTP | 11:45 |
| BUGabundo | will test with PPA version next | 11:45 |
| asac | hmm ... nothing changed ;) | 12:09 |
| fta | [reed], who decided to stop the lp-bugzilla integration? | 17:20 |
| [reed] | fta: I did. | 17:23 |
| [reed] | because I got to thinking... why should Mozilla support a closed source system with custom code when it would be in our interests and the interests of the Open Web to support open source bug systems better | 17:25 |
| [reed] | it doesn't make sense if you think about it | 17:27 |
| [reed] | now, once launchpad is open source, I'll be happy to look into it again | 17:27 |
| Nafallo | user in -se says that seamonkey doesn't remove itself from the alternative x-www-browser after a purge. | 17:31 |
| * Nafallo told the user to file a bug | 17:39 | |
| asac | hmm crimsun isnt here | 17:52 |
| asac | my sound is so silent | 17:52 |
| asac | any clue where i can manage master output for pulseÜ | 17:52 |
| fta | asac, using the new volume applet | 17:53 |
| fta | :) | 17:53 |
| asac | fta: thats broken | 17:53 |
| asac | its also 100% | 17:53 |
| asac | but its soooo silent | 17:53 |
| asac | so i think it remembered one of my alsa stuff beneath | 17:53 |
| fta | silent or too low? | 17:54 |
| asac | really loow | 17:54 |
| asac | i hear the sound | 17:54 |
| asac | but thats basically it | 17:54 |
| asac | how do i turn of pulse? | 17:54 |
| fta | did you try to open the volume control tool? you have per stream/app volume now | 17:56 |
| asac | fta: where is that? | 17:56 |
| fta | when you click on the sound applet, you have a button called "Volume Control...", it opens a "Sound Preferences" app | 17:59 |
| Nafallo | dooh. the user says he have /usr/bin/seamonkey left on the system. | 17:59 |
| Nafallo | I reckon he might have dreamed about removing it :-P | 18:00 |
| fta | asac, in there, in the Applications tab, you have one slide per stream | 18:00 |
| fta | (jaunty of course) | 18:01 |
| asac | hmmm volume control locks up | 18:03 |
| asac | will use my laptop for this party then ;) | 18:03 |
| fta | asac, restart p-a | 18:04 |
| asac | alread restarted whole system :( | 18:05 |
| fta | start it in a shell and look for the logs | 18:05 |
| asac | think only way out is to disable it ... but not know how:( | 18:05 |
| Jazzva | fta: thanks for looking into it. | 18:57 |
| Jazzva | I'll dig a bit into this (build-system is new to me), and I'll try to make it work :) | 18:57 |
