| Chipzz | talking about debian-installer... has anyone ever tested ftp://ftp.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/jaunty/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/gtk/ ? | 09:13 |
| Chipzz | been doing a lot of installs of lenny with the debian equivalent of that lately, and wondering how well that works on ubuntu/if it's tested/supported | 09:15 |
| slangasek | it's not widely exercised, because Ubuntu has its own graphical installer | 09:16 |
| Chipzz | I'm aware of that :) | 09:16 |
| directhex | i've not used gtk d-i | 09:16 |
| Chipzz | but does it get tested, or is it there just because debian builds it, and we get it for free? | 09:16 |
| directhex | but i've scripted dapper d-i before | 09:16 |
| slangasek | Chipzz: QAing the gtk installer isn't part of the Ubuntu release process at all | 09:17 |
| Chipzz | right, I would have expected that; but has anyone actually ran it to see if there's any semblence of it working at all, or not? :) | 09:19 |
| tjaalton | I've tried it, doesn't work | 09:19 |
| Chipzz | that's what I wanted to know, thx :) | 09:20 |
| tjaalton | needs porting libgtk+2.0-directfb to the current version | 09:20 |
| Chipzz | I might give it a shot anyway, maybe there have been improvements lately :) | 09:21 |
| tjaalton | no, it'll fail | 09:22 |
| davmor2 | Chipzz: I'm about to test it now for the first time on jaunty cycle | 09:22 |
| Chipzz | tjaalton: about the porting; isn't that package built from the regular gtk+ source? | 09:23 |
| tjaalton | Chipzz: yes, ask seb128 how hard it is to maintain :) | 09:23 |
| tjaalton | does tar have a 2GB limit on 32bit systems, or why does dpkg -c fail listing a huge (2,7GB) dpkg on hardy? | 09:25 |
| Chipzz | I'ld expect that the ubuntu package is roughly the same as the debian package | 09:25 |
| Chipzz | but maybe the libdirectfb package is the problem? | 09:25 |
| davmor2 | Chipzz: meh sorry no I'm testing standard netboot sorry misread the link | 09:26 |
| StevenK | directhex: So a whole bunch of Mono pre-2.0 is ending up in NBS, do you want to deal with f-spot and tomboy after alpha-4, or you have it handled? | 09:39 |

| directhex | StevenK, what are the specifics? | 09:40 |
| StevenK | directhex: Both f-spot and tomboy Build-Depend and Depend on libgnome2.0-cil, which is NBS | 09:42 |
| directhex | ah, yes | 09:42 |

| directhex | StevenK, the gnome# 2.24 transition was unexpected & unfortunate. i would normally expect abi-stability in a minor version update, but hey ho | 09:48 |
| DktrKranz | doko: ok, I'll keep it under my radar, thanks. | 09:48 |
| StevenK | directhex: It happens | 09:49 |
| directhex | StevenK, apparently so. we also made an executive decision not to do mono 2.2, since it reveals bugs in pretty much every app (bugs which need patching to fix FTBFS) and frankly we don't have the energy to do it for jaunty | 09:50 |
| StevenK | directhex: Hehe, it can wait for Jaunty+1 | 09:51 |
| directhex | StevenK, upstream these days seems to be on a crusade to make life hard. 3-month major release cycle, no bugfix releases. we might jump to 2.4 when it's released & just harden it the way we have to lenny's 1.9.1 | 09:53 |

| IntuitiveNipple | Is it intentional to have two identical 'sound' icons in the notification area; the volume applet and 'sound preferences' ? | 13:03 |
| tjaalton | IntuitiveNipple: no, the applet is "obsolete" | 13:07 |
| IntuitiveNipple | gnome-volume-control-applet, you mean? | 13:07 |
| IntuitiveNipple | OK... I assume mixer_applet2 is the 'new' one? Is that related to the pulseaudio volume control? | 13:08 |
| tjaalton | no applet, pulseaudio uses the notification area now | 13:08 |
| IntuitiveNipple | But, I presume the process is the '/usr/lib/gnome-applets/mixer_applet2 --oaf-activate-iid=OAFIID:GNOM' ? | 13:09 |

| cjwatson | Chipzz: as mentioned, it's known not to work at the moment, and we may stop building it again. Ubuntu is a major version of GTK ahead of Debian, and it turns out that there were some changes made to GTK in that cycle that changed the interface with GDK backends, and the X backend was updated but not the DirectFB backend. The update is non-trivial | 14:29 |

| superm1 | slangasek, pitti let me double check some things on a real system before i give an answer | 15:15 |
| superm1 | slangasek, i uploaded a fixed mythtv and mythplugins. can you queue a rebuild of live disks for mythbuntu with them now? | 15:15 |
| slangasek | superm1: sure - are 0ubuntu6, 0ubuntu4 the target versions? | 15:16 |
| pitti | ScottK: great to hear! so the second regression you were talking about was just the missing dependency? | 15:24 |
| slangasek | superm1: so we went back and looked at the Dell we were basing this on, and it actually has both a switchvideomode key /and/ a displaytoggle key; but g-s-d *does* a display toggle, when it receives the switchvideomode key, and there's no handling for displaytoggle at all in the stack :) | 15:24 |
| superm1 | slangasek, what model was this? | 15:24 |
| seb128 | slangasek: it doesn't really do a display toggle, it turns between configurations | 15:25 |
| seb128 | slangasek: ie, xinerama, clone, laptop, projector, etc | 15:25 |
| slangasek | superm1: Inspiron 1505 | 15:25 |
| slangasek | seb128: ok - it does a display "rotate" :) | 15:25 |
| superm1 | slangasek, okay i'll try to get a good look at a variety of inspirons then... i know that i verified the current setup was working properly for many laptops display switch hotkeys in intrepid, i'll just reverify everything with jaunty paying attention to these two key symbols | 15:27 |
| slangasek | seb128: my point is that what it doesn't do is rotate through available resolutions | 15:27 |
| seb128 | no, but not really toggle the display either | 15:27 |
| slangasek | superm1: sorry, I'm getting mixed up - it's not the Inspiron that had both the switchvideomode and displaytoggle buttons | 15:28 |
| slangasek | seb128: I think the current behavior is completely in line with what I would understand as "display toggling" | 15:28 |
| seb128 | right | 15:30 |
| slangasek | superm1: in any case, intrepid vs. jaunty is definitely a difference here; g-s-d upstream provides better xrandr handling of the XF86Display (== switchvideomode) and we dropped an upstream patch that was interfering with this | 15:30 |
| slangasek | superm1: pitti and I independently reached the conclusion that this should be changed, so I'm fairly confident that it's correct - but would of course still be happy to have your review | 15:31 |
| * superm1 nods | 15:31 | |
| seb128 | slangasek: I'm wondering if upstream picked f7 because f8 is broken | 15:31 |
| seb128 | or rather f8 doesn't trigger any xev | 15:32 |
| slangasek | seb128: you mean the 'switchvideomode' instead of 'displaytoggle'? I think that's fairly certain | 15:32 |
| seb128 | yes | 15:32 |
