wgrantIt should still be using the same meta-release-development, though, I would think.03:57

lamontwgrant: a well placed rm meta-release-development fixed it.04:01
wgrantlamont: Hmm. It sends appropriate cache headers.04:02
lamontwell... there's some horrific abuse in the way the local mirror is tied into it all, and it coughed up an intrepid file before I freshened it... so let's go with PEBCAK04:03

cumulus007Hi, a tour to introduce Ubuntu during installation was promised for Hardy, then it was delayed for Intrepid, and finally it would come in Jaunty16:55
cumulus007however, it's not there in jaunty16:56
cumulus007why is this?16:56
persiacumulus007, Maybe nobody wrote it yet?16:56
ion_You didn’t implement it yet. :-P16:56

superm1cumulus007, you mean the ubiquity slideshow spec?17:00
cumulus007yep17:00
superm1cumulus007, it's been discussed at the last two UDSes, and it will be discussed again at this one I believe17:01
superm1evand might know more on why it was delayed17:01
cumulus007Okay, I hope this will be implemented17:01
evandcumulus007: it's scheduled for Karmic.  We need to coordinate work between four teams, and that turns out to be quite difficult.17:06
cumulus007okay, that's a pity17:06

sorenKano: Probably an oversight. However, I suspect that at this very second, Intrepid is still what most people uses, so it's not that bad :)18:21
ScottKKano: Because there isn't one magic "we released, so let's update every web tool everywhere that Ubuntu uses" button.18:25
Kanoyou could write it18:26
sorenNo, we couldn't.18:27
persiaKano, not trivially, because people write new web tools for Ubuntu every day.18:28
Kanopackages is old18:28
sorenKano: And not run by Canonical.18:28
sorenKano: I'm not even sure the guy running it is an Ubuntu user.18:28

ScottKPackages.ubuntu.com and packages.debian.org are the same codebase.18:29

calcis there a particular reason LP is falling over18:31
calcit seems about 50% failure rate for me currently18:31
ScottKcalc: It's in the same data center as the primary mirrors.  It's release day.18:31
* calc thought it was separate from the package distribution system18:31
calcScottK: so overloaded it can't even get to its backend i suppose?18:31
ScottKNot sure where the bottleneck is, but clearly there is one.18:32
calcthe page itself works but operations on it pop up the oops page18:32
ScottKThis happens every release.18:32
* calc thinks the LP server needs a dedicated connection to its database server18:32
pittiKeybuk: who's the MoM person nowadays? it needs to be flipped to Karmic, and all "updated merges" reset to "outstanding"18:33
cjwatsonpitti: Keybuk said earlier he'd already poked MoM18:33
pittiah, nice18:33
cjwatsonhe says he suspects archive.ubuntu.com hadn't quite pulsed out karmic yet18:34
cjwatsonso it'll get round to it18:34
cjwatsoncalc: having trouble due to the load on shipit; they're aware, but it will probably also naturally subside18:34
calccjwatson: ok18:38

trunkzNot entirely sure as to whether this is the correct channel, but I was reading up on the mailing lists, and it sems libspe2 should be in the repo's.. but it isnt.18:48
trunkzIts an important ps3 component of ubuntu.18:48
ScottKtrunkz: For discussing getting new packages in, #ubuntu-motu is a better channel.18:49
calctrunkz: its not there for ps3? or just not there for other arches?18:50
trunkzcalc, doesnt seem to be for powerpc or x86 (just ran it on my intel box)18:50
trunkzScottK, will have a try there :)18:51
calctrunkz: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libspe2/2.2.80-95-3.1ubuntu118:51
calctrunkz: it shows like it is there18:51
trunkzI know.18:51
pi_mHi, how can I disable the new notifications?18:51
trunkzBut its not in the repo's18:51
trunkzI've compiled the source from launchpad18:51
trunkzbut it seems apt-get & dpkg dont believe that its installed.. which is another problem :p18:51
trunkzTrying to do it via checkinstall now, hopefully the .deb will register itself.18:52
calctrunkz: this isn't it? http://ports.ubuntu.com/pool/main/libs/libspe2/libspe2-2_2.2.80-95-3.1ubuntu1_powerpc.deb18:52
trunkzthat might be libspe2-2.. which it wont be18:53
trunkzi'll double check.18:53
calctrunkz: its built from the same libspe2 source18:53
calctrunkz: it looks like the sover changed18:53
calctrunkz: between 2.2.0 and 2.2.80 it changed name from libspe2 to libspe2-218:54
trunkz.. ahh18:54
calctrunkz: at least from what i can see18:54
trunkzdo they still have the 2.2.0 debs on there?18:54
calctrunkz: yea... look :)18:55
calcnot in jaunty as it is old, but its in intrepid18:55
trunkzya just saw itin intrepid18:55
trunkzthats going to fix a heck of alot of problems if it works.18:55
calctrunkz: what problems are you seeing? is it just a problem with your own code linking against the wrong library name?18:56
trunkzspe-medialib wont recognise libspe2 :)18:57
calctrunkz: spe-medialib is probably an old version then or not up to date with the spe2 libary18:57
trunkzAll this.. just to get video working properly :)18:57
calctrunkz: so i take it spe-medialib isn't something that is in ubuntu?18:58
trunkznope.18:58
trunkzIt should be. but it isnt :)18:58
calctrunkz: so just modify its source to link the correct lib and/or just recompile it and it should work18:59
trunkzoh hello.. seems to play nice now.18:59
calcyou might not have to modify anything depending on how it finds the spe library when building18:59
calcheh18:59
pi_mOr can you tell me where I can find this information (how can I disable the new notifications)?19:00
trunkzI'll probably submit a request for static builds of spe-medialib to be included in the repo :)19:00
ScottKtrunkz: It'll get turned down.19:04
trunkzI'll bribe them with cookies.19:04

pacejranyone have any speculation about the radeon driver stack in 9.10?19:44
persiapacejr, At this point, it's mostly an upstream thing: I doubt the decision would be taken as to what or how or any such until at least post UDS.19:47
Kanoi hope the first new package for karmic will be vbox 2.2.x19:48
pacejrpersia: yeah, i figured. 2.6.31 will likely be just too late for 9.10 anyways, right?19:49
persiaI don't know.  Depends on when it releases, and what the kernel team decides at UDS.19:50
pacejri seem to remember they've only switched to a kernel in the middle of ubuntu's release cycle once in the past few years19:50
persiaNo, the kernel switches in the cycle at least once *every* cycle.  It only switched late in the cycle once.19:50
persiaThe kernel team selects a version to target early in the cycle, and generally keeps to that choice.19:51
LordKowthe version selection really does have a lot to do with each specific kernel release.19:56
calcas 2.6.30 isn't even released yet it is unlikely 2.6.31 will be in karmic19:56
calc2.6.31 at the current kernel release rate would be out sometime after July (maybe August?)19:56
LordKowi would guess 2.6.30 in june. so.. late august.19:57
pacejrand i suppose the kernel team would be hesitant to patch the new radeon bits into 2.6.30?19:58
calcfeature freeze is also late august so it will be interesting to see what they decide to go with :)20:00
pacejrat least fedora is guinea-pigging a lot of the new radeon stuff for us20:09
Kanobut it was too late to fix intel onboard it seems for 9.0420:10
MarfiPassing word from #ubuntu...torrent link is being buggy20:11
Marfiback to work. Wonderful release!20:12
jdongKano: I don't see a solution for that mess until probably closer to Karmic's release timeframe.20:14
jdonglooks to me like upstream is the one in a state of flux.20:14
Kanoupdated intel drm maybe20:15

ScottKjdong: I see.  For UXA, I agree.20:48

LaserJock?20:48
ScottKEXA works here, just is slow.20:48
ScottKLaserJock: Yea20:48

ScottKEXA + Greedy works reasonably well here.20:49
LaserJockI have to turn off compositing or my GPU freezes within a few minutes20:49
NCommanderpitti, is there any chance we can setup a SPARC retracer? (I'm currently actively debugging issues on SPARC< and it would be handy)20:49
jdongEXA for me deadlocks in some GEM call when Compiz tries to start.20:49
jdongit's a bug that I can produce in every modern-ish distro past Intrepid20:49
ScottKjdong: Which Intel do you have?20:52
ScottKjdong: Any chance you could give backports approval some love.  I'm sure it needs it.20:52
jdongScottK: GMA950 in a old generation Macbook20:52
ScottKAh.20:52
jdongand Backports is on my TODO list which is getting shoved to the weekend.... courses are really killing me right now20:53

YokoZarhmm the release notes page still refers to Ubuntu 9.04 beta (http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/904overview)20:58
persiaYokoZar, IF it's not already filed, file a bug against ubuntu-website.20:59
cody-somervillewhere did gtk-displayconfig go?21:00
YokoZarpersia: done.  didn't realize we had a website project in launchpad, makes sense21:03
magciusSorry... Ubuntu packaging n00b here... how do you use CDBS with automake?21:05
persiamagcius, Better to ask in #ubutu-motu (and there's a couple files you can include, but how many to include depends on what you want to do).21:07
ScottKmagcius: Packaging questions are better in #ubuntu-motu21:07
siretartjdong: ScottK's right. I'm currently running jaunty with 2.6.30-rc2 and intel 2.7.0 release (karmic ships 2.6.3) and EXA acceleration.21:28
