fta[reed], would it be possible to have revids somewhere in http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/pushlog ?00:27
ftain addition to those ugly changesets00:27
ftaasac, 1st round, https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mozilla-daily/+archive/ppa00:41
ftaasac, i just started my improved bot with just xul/ff 3.2, daily for now00:42
ftathis is for hardy->jaunty00:43
=== asac_ is now known as asac
[reed]fta: does http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/pushloghtml have what you need?02:17
[reed]oh, that's not a feed02:17
ftai don't really need a feed02:18
ftai need a way to get the revid of the tip with the date02:19
ftapreferably in a unique timezone, unlike what is available today02:19
ftathe xml feed is fine for the date but lack the rev id02:19

ubottuMozilla bug 449691 in Mail Window Front End "improved message (view) reader pane" [Normal,Resolved: fixed]07:15
asacfta: yeah. when i wanted to commit it the tree was frozen08:04
asacfta: so how much mem do we need ffor the daily ppa?08:09
mptrheet08:19
ftahi08:31
ftaasac, depends, what for? the ppa size, or archives?08:32
ftahttps://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mozilla-daily/+archive/ppa08:32
asacfta: 20:22 < toddw> asac: for the Python, Komodo requires a shared Python build (which should  be okay as system Python)08:32
asac20:23 < toddw> asac: then the build scripts "build.py" would need to be tweaked to  override the siloedPython setup08:33
ftajust xul + ff = 1G already08:33
asaci guess that doesnt really help though08:33
asacfta: yeah. so what size should we ask for to get started?08:33
asac20?08:33
ftadepends of what we want to put in there08:35
asac50?08:37
ftalol, 20 is enough, as there's only two versions of each binary at any given time (and only 1 once the superseded ones are removed)08:40
asacfta: really? ... ok. thought we would at least have  abit of history08:42
ftawe want to but that's not how the ppa quota is working, afaik08:42
ftaarchives in librarian is a different thing08:43
ftathis is 30 days max of superseded binaries08:43
ftadisregarding the size08:43
ftaif we want more, we need to backup those ourselves, or request an exception08:44
asacyeah08:46
asacso you say the superseeded bits are not in the quota08:47
asac?08:47
ftai think so08:47
ftabut maybe i'm wrong08:48
asacok. i will tell mrevell that we want 2008:48

asacimo everybody should be able to add stuff to whiteboard09:24
asacbut not overwrite old things09:24
asacfta: i think we want dailies for tbird 3 and ffox 3.1 too09:26
asacthat should be enough i guess09:26
asacotoh ... having 3.0 too would be nice09:26
ftaif i'm upstream, i don't want anyone not in the team touching to the whiteboards09:29
ftafor the dailies, yes, sure, i just want to be sure my bot won't do nasty things09:33
asacfta: cool09:33
asacfta: ok commented on bug09:33
asacfta: imo if they dont reconsider wont fix we should open a bug that allows branch owners to disable whiteboard09:34
ftaasac, at what time do we want the bot to run? midnight? noon?09:49
fta4am?09:49
asacfta: yeah 4am is a good time i think ;) ... so we have an update every morning ;)09:53
asacfor breakfast09:53
ftaremember i don't test build, it also means FTBFS for breakfast09:54
mconnormpt: so, if you're not at FOSDEM, will you be back in London next week?10:06
mconnorwe could discuss this in front of a whiteboard, or over pints, or both :)10:06
mptHi mconnor, I don't think I'll be going to Fosdem, but yes I will be in London next week10:10
mptWould be good to meet you and discuss this more10:10
mconnormpt: where is Canonical, anyway?  I have an appt in Soho Monday morning, and theoretically flying home Wednesday, but that's all up in the air10:12
mptmconnor, Millbank Tower, just south of Westminster10:12
mconnorhmm10:14
mconnorI just realized I have no idea how far apart those are!10:14
mptHow far apart they are depends on whether it's snowing ;-)10:15
mconnorhaha10:15
mconnorI'm Canadian, I'm used to snow10:16
mconnoralso, isn't that the point of, y'know, a subway system?10:16
mptNo, it isn't <http://severe-delays.livejournal.com/67893.html>10:16
mpt(summary: if subway drivers can't get to the station, there's no-one to drive the trains)10:17
mconnorhaha10:17
mconnorrock10:17
mptWith buses running, though, Soho Square to Millbank Tower takes about 40 minutes10:18
mconnorhmm, that's entirely doable10:18
mconnorwhat about to LHR from there?10:20
mconnorI was kinda thinking I'd take the Monday night flight home instead, if I can make that workable and still get stuff done :)10:20
mptDepends on your budget. 1h20m to Terminal 1/2/3 if you're ok with shelling out £16.50 for the Heathrow Express. 1h30m with £6.90 for the Heathrow Connect.10:23
mpt(Either way, add about 5 minutes for Terminal 4 or 5.)10:24
mconnorten pounds to save ten minutes seems excessive, wow10:25
mconnorI guess location matters10:25
mconnormpt: dare I ask what an airport car costs?10:26
mconnorsince driving is apparently 34 minutes with traffic10:27
mptThat I don't know, sorry, your googling would be as good as mine10:27
mconnorhmm10:28
mconnor37 pounds10:28
mconnorthat seems reasonable-ish to save an hour, given what I'm spending already to be in London...10:29
mconnoror I can just fly home Tuesday and spend Monday night in a nice pub :)10:30

asacso you merged?21:51
ftayes21:52
ftai worked in the bot, i should not do that21:53
ftathe problem of not bumping *.head daily is that xul and ff will now diverge regarding their versions, when we have something to fix in one but not in the other21:54
ftabtw, i have a bunch of *.daily* branches now, i will push them in the ~umd21:55
asacfta: what purpose do they have?21:55
ftajust showing history21:55
asacok ... as long as we dont merge from there21:56
asacso when we change .head those probably need to be overwritten or force-merged or sometjing21:56
ftawe should never touch them21:56
asacyes of course21:57
asacso are we resetting them when .head gets a new commit?21:57

asac12 days till feature freeze ;)22:14
ftais that better to ship jaunty with crappy sound?22:15
asaci think we have a plan for that ;)22:16
asacwe will blacklist a bunch of things22:16
asacfor glitch free22:16
asacat least thatsa what came out of the sprint22:16
asacdtchen: is glitch free really the main issue we havehere?22:17
dtchenasac: it's one of them22:24
dtchenasac: there are a number of issues in the audio stack22:24
dtchenreaches all the way down from broken hw (e.g., HDA codecs) to how PA is configured by default to GUI apps to manipulate PA22:24
asachmm22:25
asachttp://identi.ca/notice/211168722:26
asacso blacklist glitch free + use alsa mixer is curreent way to move forward22:26
* dtchen contemplates how to wrangle it22:29
dtchenso, patch PA to check hal before enabling tsched?22:30
dtchenthat's gonna be a sick patch22:30
dtchenotherwise, we could revert to using alsa completely by setting tsched=0 for everyone22:31
dtchenglitch-free does tend to act more sensibly once the watermark has been set high enough; otherwise, with tsched=0, PA just uses alsa's interrupt-based scheme22:32
asacdtchen: isnt glicht free about finding a perfect buffer size?22:34
asacdtchen: (besides other things)22:35
dtchenyes22:35
asacwouldnt it be possible to ust use a big cache?22:35
asacfrom what i understood the problem is supposed to be that some drivers give a bad value for that cache heurisitc22:35
dtchenyes, and you can approach it from either the driver or from PA22:36
asacright. but from my experiences with drivers, they take ages to get fixed ... if not forever22:38
asacso we need some kind of workaround for now22:38
dtchensadly, there's no uninvasive workaround that will work for everyone22:39
asacat least for wifi i am waiting and waiting ... and while there are improvements they always get about the same mount of regressions22:39
dtchenif the tsched=0 was decided for all chipsets, that's a simple one-line change in etc/pulse/default.pa.in22:40
dtchenerr, src/daemon/default.pa.in22:40
dtchenif it's to be selective, well, that's going to be a weekend hackfest22:40
asacbut wouldnt tsched cause stuttering on a bunch of chips?22:41
asactsched=0 i mean22:41
asaccool ... new hal is there ... i can finally boot my 2.6.29 rc3 kernel again22:42
* asac reboots22:42
dtchenright now it causes stuttering on just about all hw depending on the user's workload22:42
dtchenthe stuttering is most noticeable immediately after the pulseaudio daemon has been invoked22:42
dtchenat that point, the buffering hasn't settled22:43
dtchenat some point (normally within a few seconds), it has settled22:43
