dtchenfta: ok, so i presume pkill pulseaudio works around that?00:23
ftanope00:23
fta1st thing i tried00:24
dtchenok, what if you disable autospawn, pkill pulseaudio, and just use alsa directly?00:25
BUGabundofta: is the volume at 100%?00:26
BUGabundomine tends to get muted or low00:26
dtchenor at 0%00:26
dtchennearly all HDA controllers have this gpio screwery that i haven't figured out how to work around00:26

BUGabundolol00:28
BUGabundojust so many bugs.... poor dtchen00:28
BUGabundoasac: ping. are you around! want to clear a bug/feature on NM and 3G00:29
ftahow do I disable autospawn?00:29
dtchenfta: change /etc/pulse/client.conf's "autospawn = yes" to "autospawn = no", or do so in ~/.pulse/client.conf00:30
dtchen(anything in /etc/pulse will be overridden by ~/.pulse)00:30
ftayep, better00:32
dtchenok, so the plot thickens00:32
dtchenthere are a few things to consider, and i'm working with the speex developer on the resampling00:32
dtchenthe resampler is one culprit00:32
dtchenanother culprit is the use of shm00:32
dtchenyou can try disabling shm in daemon.conf00:33
ftabut it was almost fine in jaunty00:33
dtchenyou can also adjust default-fragments and default-fragment-size-msec00:33
dtchenjaunty and karmic have _very_ different audio stacks00:33
ftahow come?00:33
dtchenin fact, the audio stack has changed significantly between each of gusty, hardy, intrepid, jaunty, and karmic00:33
dtchenit's like having five separate stacks, really00:34
ftahm00:34
dtchenwell, for starters, every release brings a newer section of the stack (alsa-kernel shipped in linux-image-$(uname -r) - and alsa-lib)00:34
dtchennot to mention the glue layer shipped in alsa-plugins changes00:35
dtchennot to mention pulseaudio itself changes00:35
BUGabundoehehe00:35
dtchennot to mention the compilation options have changed00:35
ftawell, i trust you on this ;)00:37
dtchenno need to trust me00:37
fta:)00:39
ftadefault-fragments = 800:40
ftadefault-fragment-size-msec = 1000:40
ftawhat do you recommend?00:40
dtchenit's extremely controller specific00:41
BUGabundofta: I went up to 12800:41
BUGabundoabove 16 didn't notice any diference00:41
dtchenthere is no "one size fits all"00:41
dtchenBUGabundo: then you're just spinning the cpu more than you need to00:42
BUGabundoeheh00:42
BUGabundoI'm back on 800:42
ftamplayer randomly pauses itself00:43
ftatried 8/10, 16/10, 32/10, 8/20, 8/40(=unusable)00:45
ftanada00:45
BUGabundoI just changed frag.... not size msec00:46
dtchenfta: they're frame-aligned on powers-of-two00:48
fta8, 16, 32...00:48
dtchenok00:49
dtchenlet me work on the git snapshots of pulse and get back to you00:49
dtcheni would, in the meantime, reset those values to 8 and 10, respectively, and try changing the resampler00:50
dtchen(i'm currently using ffmpeg, but some people use trivial)00:50
BUGabundodtchen: how can we do that?00:51
ftahhmmm;, excellent00:52
ftawith ffmpeg00:52
dtchenBUGabundo: daemon.conf00:52
dtchen"resample-method = ffmpeg"00:53
dtchenyou'd think it would be straightforward to adjust these parameters, but the permutations of HDA controllers really make things horrifically complicated00:53
ftaif i pause in mplayer for more than a few secs, when i unpause, it plays just 3 secs and stops00:54
dtchenusing either -ao alsa or -ao pulse, correct?00:54
ftayes00:55
ftait's ao=alsa now00:55
dtchengrr, that's more complicated (need to look at both linux and pulseaudio)00:55
dtchenif you're brave, can you reproduce the symptom using http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.30-rc5/ ?00:56
dtchenneed to know where to start the git-bisect :/00:56

ftadtchen, will those kernels work with my nvidia blob?00:59
nhandlerWould someone here be willing to review a FF extension I tried packaging following the guide on the wiki?01:00
dtchenfta: the nvidia blobs are DKMSised; you just need to ensure that you also install the linux-headers* mainline debs, too01:01
nhandlerLP Bug #375753 if anyone gets a chance. The bzr branch is linked to the bug report.01:07
ubottuLaunchpad bug 375753 in ubuntu "[needs-packaging] NoScript (Firefox extension)" [Wishlist,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/37575301:07
kklimondanhandler: I've asked debian maintainer of mozilla-noscript about update and he said that he'll try to do it soon (He had a child some time ago and it took his whole free time :) ).01:11
nhandlerkklimonda: Ah ok. I missed that we had mozilla-noscript. Shouldn't it be listed on https://edge.launchpad.net/~mozilla-extensions-dev ?01:14
kklimondanhandler: it isn't maintained by Mozilla Extensions Team so I guess they don't list it on their page.01:16
kklimondaWhat has been bothering me is the fact that there is no standard in naming extension packages.. we have mozilla-noscrtipt, adblock-plus, firefox-greasemonkey, iceweasel-imperator.. it's easy to miss something.01:19
kklimondaiceweasel-vimperator*01:20
=== micahg1 is now known as micah1
Jazzvakklimonda: I think we discussed a while ago (few months ago or so) and decided to not use mozilla, firefox and similar in packages' names. The reason would be not to get an impression that the software is produced by Mozilla, and also because we ship debranded version of Firefox (abrowser).01:30
Jazzvakklimonda: IIRC, mozilla-noscript and firefox-greasemonkey were packaged way before that discussion was held.01:30
Jazzvakklimonda: though, I'm not sure if we should rename those specific few packages now. You should check that with asac.01:31
kklimondaJazzva: I've already seen one or two packages that had both "branded" dummy package (used for transition) and clean one.. I think we could at least rename iceweasel-vimperator to vimperator as we don't ship iceweasel at all01:33
kklimondaI'll ask asac about it. asac? :)01:34
nhandlerJazzva: I know that we won't be using my packaging, but if you get a chance, could you please look at my version of noscript to let me know if it looks ok (so I know for next time)?01:34
Jazzvaalso, mozilla-noscript is in the wiki list... I'll update ~mozilla-extensions-dev page to link to that list. I suppose most of the extensions need to be updated... I'll give my best to help (after I finish another school project, which is going to be on Saturday)01:34
Jazzvanhandler: sure, I'll take a look now :)01:35
kklimondaJazzva: I think it was added by nhandler01:35
nhandlerkklimonda: mozilla-noscript was already there. I added (and removed) noscript01:35
kklimondaah, i see01:35
Jazzvakklimonda: it was also unknown if that's the NoScript as distributed on addons.mozilla.org, IIRC01:36
Jazzvanhandler: "firefox | firefox-3.0 | ..." should be "firefox | ...". seems like I should also rework extensions' packaging page...01:39
Jazzvanhandler: that's from the period when "firefox" was FF2, and firefox-3.0 was FF301:40
nhandlerJazzva: Then should XPI.TEMPLATE be updated to reflect that?01:40
Jazzvanhandler: also, we don't ship iceweasel and icedove01:41
Jazzvanhandler: I'll update it. I didn't know it wasn't updated.01:41
nhandlerYeah, those Dependencies are from XPI.TEMPLATE01:42
Jazzvanhandler: sorry for the mess :)01:42
nhandlerNo problem01:42
Jazzvanhandler: other than that, looks good01:43
Jazzvanhandler: it builds and installs correctly, right?01:43
nhandlerYeah, it built fine. It looks like it is installing the files properly, but I did not test that yet (I am not ready to restart firefox and close mibbit)01:44
Jazzvanhandler: Ok, I'll give it a testdrive then :). Does it work with Thunderbird too?01:44
nhandlerJazzva: The website did not list it as working with Thunderbird01:45
Jazzvanhandler: You missed to point Vcs-Bzr field in debian/control to the right branch. Also, one little typo, you wrote "mozilla" in the description. I think it would be better to write "Mozilla"01:46
Jazzvanhandler: the idea is to provide template, and then to remove, or add dependencies as needed (and also to reflect that in MOZ_XPI_MOZILLA_DIRS in debian/rules), so you should probably remove thunderbird (and I'll remove icedove and iceweasel from the template :))01:48
nhandlerJazzva: I thought about adding the Vcs-Bzr, but the wiki guide didn't mention it. I also didn't think having it linked to my personal bzr branch would be very beneficial (it would be better to have it point to a team maintained branch). As for the description, you are right, it should be mozilla.01:49
nhandlerJazzva: As for the dependencies, wouldn't it make more sense to not have it depend on Thunderbird by default since MOZ_XPI_MOZILLA_DIRS does not include Thunderbird by default01:50
Jazzvanhandler: I'll check with asac for tbird dependency. For now, I'll add a comment in debian/rules to reflect changes made to MOZ_XPI_MOZILLA_DIRS in dependency line.01:52
Jazzvanhandler: As for the Vcs-Bzr, it should link to https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-dev/firefox-extensions/<your-extension>.ubuntu01:52
Jazzvanhandler: since your branch will be merged into that branch. I'll add that to the packaging page on wiki01:53
Jazzvaasac: do you know why gnomefreak added iceweasel and icedove to XPI.TEMPLATE branch?02:08
Jazzvanhandler: looks like noscript is installed correctly02:10
nhandlerAwesome! Now I just need to find a package another package that is actually properly licensed and is not already in debian/ubuntu02:11
Jazzvanhandler: if you want, you can also update some of already packaged extensions...02:12
Jazzvanhandler: if in doubt if the maintainer mentioned on the wiki page will complain, then feel free to take some of mine :)02:13
nhandlerJazzva: That isn't a bad idea. Also, do we track which of our extensions are in Debian, and which are not?02:14
Jazzvanhandler: we have different (and IMO easier) packaging. Feel free to take some of the extensions mentioned in the first list, I'm 99% sure that they're all packaged using mozilla-devscripts (that's the thing in which we differ for now)02:16
=== rickspencer3 is now known as rickspencer3-afk
nhandlerJazzva: Unless you have any objections, i'll try and update GreaseMonkey02:22
Jazzvanhandler: no problem. Thanks :)02:22
nhandlerJazzva: Do we not have $EXTENSIONNAME.upstream branches?02:26
Jazzvanhandler: If you think on .upstream branches in ~ubuntu-dev's bzr, no, we don't have them02:28
Jazzvanhandler: here's mine https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~jazzva/firefox-extensions/firefox-greasemonkey.upstream02:28
nhandlerJazzva: Why don't we keep the .upstream branches with the .ubuntu branches?02:29
Jazzvanhandler: we actually moved nspluginwrapper (and maybe some other packages) to use the same branch for upstream and ubuntu branches. I'm not sure if that's the way we decided to maintain extensions. You're probably right. asac will know more than me.02:30
nhandlerJazzva: For firefox-greasemonkey, it Depends on: firefox | abrowser | firefox-3.0 | firefox-2, should the firefox-3.0 and firefox-2 be removed?02:41
Jazzvanhandler: yes02:42
Jazzvanhandler: have you checked the current packaging in ~ubuntu-dev branch?02:42
nhandlerJazzva: Yes. That is the one I am working with. Did you have any other changes in your person branch that I should merge in?02:45
Jazzvanhandler: no.02:45
nhandler;)02:45
Jazzvaok, sleep time over here. good luck with packaging :)02:47
nhandlerThanks a lot for your help Jazzva. I should have an upgrade ready by the end of the night ;)02:51

gnomefreakso you mean if i wantede it now i would have to build it and just not upgrade the daily builds until it is released11:09
asacgnomefreak: i think that patch will take a while. doesnt the extension just work?11:11
gnomefreakasac: dont know i know it did not work when this problem sufaced. I might have miss the commant about the extension if it in that bug report11:12
asacgnomefreak: story is that at some point nothing worked ... then we added a patch that supports reply to list in the backend ... from there on the extension works11:13
asacnow it seems they want to do the UI on their own11:13
asacimo there is nothing to do here for us11:13
asacjust wait until this gets committedd11:13
gnomefreakdesending == in order of newest part of bug is first than the re: is after that. but tbird dorsnt understand that at all11:14
asacconfirming that the extension still works would be good i guess and maybe contacting the extension author if it doesnt work anymore11:14
asacgnomefreak: what is your "descending === ..." line about? is that a new bug yo11:15
asac?11:15
gnomefreakasac: the problem that started this bug IIRC was that using replt all would reply to the commenter and the bug, they/we are looking more for a way to reply to newgroups/mailing list posts without using the commenter as a reply11:15
gnomefreakthe "NEW" bug line is after the responces bug comments11:16
asacyes, thats the nature of "reply to list"11:16
asacgnomefreak: the NEW bugline thing is something different11:16
asaci submitted a patch for that at some point ... seems it got not accepted11:17
gnomefreakasac: than no extension doesnt work and either did our attempts to fix it to work that way11:17
gnomefreakasac: i know its not the same11:17

mbanahello15:38
mbanai'm using a 64bit machine15:38
mbanaand i'm wondering if it's possible to get 32bit ver. of firefox on my machine15:38
asacmbana: not from the archive. mozilla 32bit build will probably work15:40
asacmbana: well, you could unpack the xulrunner .deb and the firefox .deb and then hope that ia32libs has everything needed15:41
mbanawhat do you mean not from the archive?15:41
mbanayeh the just binaries?15:42
asacfta: so i changed something in third_party WebKit, but hammer app doesnt build this ... can i just do hammer WebKit ?15:42
asacmbana: not by apt-get == from the archive15:42
mbanaso you want me to get the builds from mozilla?  i've been trying to avoid that because something is wrong with the font rendering --- it's terrible15:43
asacmbana: i fail to see why font rendering would be different for our builds; you sure thats the case?15:45
mbanano the mozilla ones are messed up15:45
mbanaif i download it directly from their site15:45
asacah yeah. they probably have an inferior in-source cairo15:45
asacmbana: is there a libcairo* in it?15:45
asactry to remove it ... not sure if that causes instability15:46
mbanaalso, do you know if it'll use my .firefox or will it create a new one?15:47
asachere aint no .firefox15:47
asacjust .mozilla/firefox15:47
asacand yes, it will use that15:48
asacfta: it doesnt build my WebCore changes ... tried hammer webcore ;)15:51
mbanawould this work.  remove firefox 3.5 and install the 32bit version of it somehow from one of the ubuntu's repo15:52
asacno15:53
asacdo what i said above15:53
asactry remove libcaio from upstream buld15:53
asacbuild15:53
asacwe simply dont support 32-bit on amd64 for our packages15:53
mbanacan't linux run 32bit binaries?  i'm sure it can15:55
asacdoesnt really matter ;) ... ffox32 from packages is not supported. thats it.15:58
asaccould be done in future i guess15:58
asacbut not for the time being15:59
mbanalibcaio ... are you sure it's not freetype?16:02
asacno libcairo16:06
asacmbana: in the tree you unpack from upstream ... is there no libcairo* ?16:06
mbanano16:11
mbanait's in the main dir right?16:11
mbanahere's the frep16:13
mbanagrep16:13
mbanahttp://pastebin.com/d41027c3016:13
asacyeah. then keep using amd64 for now ;)16:15
asaci think we will have more discussion about 32bit during UDS16:16
asacbut most likely outcome is ... who cares ... 64bit flash is coming soon and then there isnt much reason to use 32bit anyway16:17
mbanacan you just walk me through what would happen if i attempt to download the 32bit .deb?16:17
mbanai use 64bit flash, it's the adobe plug-in that i need16:17
asacjust unpack stuff and create the proper gre.d file in /etc/gre.d16:17
asacand then hope that ia32libs has enough16:18
mbanaseems like they (mozilla) hard compile somrthing16:20
asacthey link cairo statically most likely16:20
asacbloody scons mess kills me16:23
asacthere is not even clean target ;)16:23
mbanahttp://pastebin.com/d78129d9e16:24
mbanawould what would a good workaround for that16:24
mbanai need to somehow force the install of branding16:25
asacffox is not th eonly package oyu need ... you need xulrunner-1.9 as well16:26
asaconce you have all deps just force install them16:26
asacensure there are not plugins installed, as those will not work of course16:26
asacyou have to install stuff by using dpkg -i ALLPACKAGES16:27
asacin the same line16:27
asacand probably also right order16:27
mbanayou're right16:29
mbanathis is a pain16:29
asacits the wrong way as i said ... the idea is that you UNPACK the .debs16:30
asacand put them to some place16:30
asacand add the gre.d file like i said above16:30
asacotherwise you will bust all the rdepends that need xulrunner16:30
mbana$ firefox-3.516:32
mbanaCould not find compatible GRE between version 1.9.1b4pre and 1.9.1b4pre.16:32
mbanathanks16:32
mbanacan't be asked16:32
mbanagood evening16:33
asacmbana: thats the gre.d16:34
asacrevert everything ... unpack all .debs you want to some directory using dpkg -x16:34
asacthen put the etc/gre.d file to /etc/gre.d and fix the path in there16:34

micahgasac: regarding someone having a problem with swfdec on a site, should I suggest trying the ADobe Flash plugin or rather submit problems to swfdec?16:51

micahglatest AFAIK16:52
asacif its jaunty he probably should complain to swfdec folks16:52
asacmicahg: of course only if tits a swfdec problem16:52
micahgbut don't they say it's only compatible with like Flash 8?16:53
asacif swfdec doesnt work at all, e.g. its not even detected as a plugin, then it might be packaging/usersetup problem16:53

asacyou can just close it as invalid ... or move to swfdec16:55
micahgwell, it seemed that a new profile helped16:55
micahgbut flash is still flaky16:55
micahgso, can I comment to try Adobe flash and move to swfdec?16:56
asacmicahg: if the user prefers free flash he can use gnash16:58
asaci don tlike to recommend adobe flash16:58
asacyou can of course tell them that the option exists16:59
asacbut mozilla-plugin-gnash is the gnash package16:59
micahgbut I thought that the free flash version still don't support the latest features that some sites ues16:59
asacand perf is much better for that16:59
asacyou can switch back and forth using the plugin switcher in tools -> Manage content-addons16:59
micahgok17:00
asacmicahg: that might be true. if user complains about missing features you can tell them that we have adobe flash available, but usually its ok to have some sites not working if user wants free (and secure) flash17:00
asacmicahg: think about it like firefox when IE dominated the market ... lots of sites didnt work, but it often wasnt even ffox fault17:00
micahgasac: I'm not aware of a plugin switcher17:00
asacbest advice is: if a site doesnt work, complain to the site runner so they ask their flash designers to test it on gnash ;)17:01
asacmicahg: if ubufox is installed and you have flash on the site there is a Tools -> manage content-plugins menu17:01
asacthats the plugin switcher17:01
micahgtrue, but this time, it's OS Flash not supportting newer features, not sites following incorrect standards17:01
micahgah17:01
asacif you have multiple installed you get multiple options there17:01
micahgthat's why17:01
asacalso you can directly search for more plugins from there17:01
micahgI'm running Shiretoko and cant' see the ubufox goodies :)17:01

micahgah17:08
micahgok17:08
asacactually i will change that behaviour17:10

asacthe idea is to always allo to manage content plugins ... and only allow users to hit a checkbox: "only show used content types"17:14
micahgah17:15
micahgthat's a nice feature17:15
micahgasac: when I find bugs upsteam,  do I need to add an ubuntu list to the cc's or should I just watch it myself?17:34
micahgthere's something in the docs about ubuntu.distro or something17:35
asacmicahg: yeah. unfortunately we never implemented that approach17:35
asacso for now just watch them yourself (if you want) ... more importantly tell ubuntu reporters that they can follow progress there17:36
micahgok, well I'm happy to watch and update the  LP bug if any developments happen17:36
micahgdone and done17:36
asacmicahg: you need to add the bugzilla bug as an upstream task17:36
micahgdone17:36
micahg:)17:36
asacin that way the bug will automatically be updated if upstream changes state to fix released or something17:36
asacgood17:36
micahgyes, but sometimes workarounds are posted without a status change17:37
micahgso I can update the LP bug with the workaround17:37

asacif you can deal with the load thats definitly a perfect way to do it17:37

* asac sighs at doing a full rebuild after changing just one webkit file in chromium tree17:39
asacmicahg: there are multiple ways of doing things automated17:39
micahgyeah, after I have triaging down, I might try my hand at packaging17:39
asaci have some scripts that do some common tasks17:40
asacmight need improvement/update here and there17:40
asaclet me check17:40
asacmicahg: http://people.ubuntu.com/~asac/moztools/17:42
asaci think deny-bug should be called "invalid-crash" ;)17:43
asacso that and try-extdisable are probably useful17:44
asacthe re-report with bug menu could be improved to use apport-collect or something17:44
asacbut most likely we can continue to use that for bugs the user didnt submit through apport17:44
asacbut only if we think we want extension summary et al17:44
asacnote that you need to create a cookies.txt from the firefox cookies database17:45
asacand remember to replace "Alexander" with your name ;)17:45
asacfor the cookies.txt creation look at http://people.ubuntu.com/~kees/scripts/17:45
asacthere is a cookie-* script that does that17:45
asacbdmurray: hey can we talk here about the launchpad searches?17:49
asacbdmurray: another question, what are todays entry challenges for bugcontrol membership?17:51
bdmurrayasac: I've a meeting in 10 minutes so briefly17:51
asacis bugcontrol the group for triaging crashes at all?17:52
asacbdmurray: yeah thats fine. i just wonder if we really want to enable triager searchplugins by default in ubuntu17:52
bdmurrayyes, bug control has the ability to view private crash reports17:52
bdmurrayasac: the search plugin isn't so much for triagers as for being able to get to http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/package/+bugs17:53
bdmurrayThere is no easy way to navigate to that and it'll make it easier for people to find bug reports about a particular package17:54
asacbdmurray: do you know if there is a "find package" wizard or something in some apport UI tool17:55
bdmurrayasac: There is not one that I know of17:55
asacbdmurray: so micahg is doing great bug work on firefox for a while now ... i think it would be worthwhile if he could also help cleaning up crashes; what would be next steps for him to become bugcontrol member?17:56
asacbdmurray: so we already have a Help -> Report a Problem ... menu entry that currently opens the bug reporting page for firefox17:57
bdmurrayasac: being familiar with https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToTriage#head-f46ac7bd66be716a03d2d4fb0788725cc9cc7ba0 and your endorsement are sufficient17:57
micahgasac: sorry was afk17:57
asacbdmurray: thanks i will check the HowTo17:57
bdmurrayasac: right but it doesn't show you all the bugs already reported about firefox, which could reduce the quantity of duplicates being reported17:57
bdmurrayasac: The full documentation regarding joing bug control is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBugControl17:58
asacbdmurray: what i could envision would be to either extend apport to become more of a bug reporting frontend that also has a package find thing or something17:58
asacand making the menu entry in firefox jus topen that17:58
asacthe other option would be to implement such a "find the package" wizard in firefox and make that accessible through that menu17:58
asacbut having that wizardry in apport would make that feature avaialble for other apps as well17:59
asacso might be the preferred way of moving forward if we think that changing the semantic of that menu entry would good enough for that purpose18:00
micahgso asac, should I petition for bug control?18:03
