| ccheney | anyone know how long it takes to get from the madrid airport to the train station? | 04:26 |
| stgraber | depends what terminal you're at | 04:27 |
| ccheney | i'm not sure | 04:28 |
| stgraber | ^ forget that | 04:28 |
| stgraber | (wrong airport ;)) | 04:28 |
| ccheney | i have to get from madrid airport to renfe to go to caceres | 04:28 |
| * stgraber tries to remember Madrid | 04:29 | |
| ccheney | hmm it appears it stops at 'atocha' station will need to look for a madrid train map | 04:32 |
| ccheney | ah i found one :) | 04:33 |
| superm1 | ccheney, it took us about an hour, but it really depends on what terminal you fly into because some are 20-40 minutes from the metro stop | 04:33 |
| ccheney | superm1: ah, fun | 04:35 |
| superm1 | there should be about 2 transfers on the metro you gotta do too | 04:36 |

| ccheney | it sounds like it would be very tight time wise to be able to do it | 04:37 |
| dholbach | good morning | 06:21 |
| * hyperair wonders if anyone could sync nautilus-share from debian unstable | 06:36 | |
| TheMuso | hyperair: Have you filed a bug about it? | 06:38 |
| dholbach | TheMuso: it's unmodified in Ubuntu | 06:39 |
| TheMuso | dholbach: Oh, it should automatically sync then. | 06:48 |
| dholbach | right-o, or when ever big sync command is run | 06:49 |
| TheMuso | yeah | 06:50 |
| pitti | Good morning | 07:12 |
| pitti | slangasek: hah, sounds like a good idea | 07:13 |
| pitti | slangasek: there is: ENV{DMI_VENDOR}=="MICRO-STAR*", RUN+="keymap $name micro-star" | 07:14 |
| pitti | slangasek: I agree, having udev-extras conflict sounds appropriate, since this takes over keymaps | 07:15 |
| superm1 | pitti, next time you do an upload of udev extras can you add something like a debian/README.Debian explaining how the branch is constructed for uploads from upstream checkouts? when i was porting hid2hci over to it I was quite perplexed trying to do it from bzr as I still had to run autogen.sh and have a whole slew of extra build depends to make it work | 07:22 |
| pitti | hi superm1 | 07:22 |
| superm1 | good morning pitti | 07:23 |
| pitti | superm1: incidentally I'm just at preparing a new upload (one bug fix and upstream pull) | 07:23 |
| superm1 | pitti, ah good to know, then i'll do an upload disabling hid2hci in bluez too | 07:23 |
| pitti | superm1: okay, I'll add a debian/README.source | 07:24 |
| superm1 | thanks, most appreciated :) | 07:24 |
| slangasek | pitti: the micro-star map is not a complete replacement for what was in the micro-star-infinity hal-info one, AFAICS | 07:30 |
| pitti | slangasek: in some cases I merged entries for models which didn't collide | 07:33 |
| pitti | slangasek: IIRC that happened with the INFINITY and the two special cases | 07:33 |
| === tkamppeter_ is now known as tkamppeter | ||
| tkamppeter | pitti, can you upload CUPS to Debian and Ubuntu ASAP, in your 1.3.9-3 release you have also deactivated pdftopdf and not only pdftoopvp. | 07:35 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: okay; what did that break? | 07:35 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, you have commented out the line in addtocups which adds pdftoopvp to the Makefile. This line also added pdftopdf. I have fixed that already in the BZR. | 07:37 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: right, I saw; I mean, did that break a lot? | 07:37 |
| * infinity wonders if he should start typing PITTI in all-caps to see if it hilights for him. | 07:37 | |
| pitti | infinity: it doesn't :) | 07:38 |
| infinity | Dang. | 07:38 |
| pitti | I don't like to be yelled at | 07:38 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, it switched CUPS simply back to the old PostScript printing workflow. | 07:38 |
| StevenK | Haha | 07:38 |
| StevenK | I wonder if it's case-sensitive for my client | 07:38 |
| nellery | STEVENK | 07:39 |
| StevenK | Yeah, it does. :_) | 07:39 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, and I added also some patch to CUPS which should improve multiple copies printing with OOo and it should make the PDF workflow obeying optionm settings from Windows clients. | 07:39 |
| StevenK | pitti: Oh, you broke something in udev-extras as opposed to trying to summon infinity? | 07:40 |
| pitti | StevenK: yes, that was a laptop model name | 07:41 |
| StevenK | Ahhh | 07:41 |
| pitti | superm1: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/%7Eubuntu-core-dev/udev-extras/ubuntu/annotate/head%3A/debian/README.source | 07:41 |
| superm1 | pitti, ah ha. makes much more sense now. thanks! | 07:42 |
| pitti | superm1: well, it's still hideously complicated, but it avoids calling autotools at build time (which Keybuk doesn't like) | 07:43 |
| superm1 | what's wrong with autotools at build time? | 07:43 |
| StevenK | superm1: Non-deterministic results | 07:43 |
| pitti | you upload something that you didn't actually test-built before | 07:43 |
| lifeless | people have different opinions | 07:44 |
| pitti | and they tend to break over time | 07:44 |
| lifeless | I prefer to build dep on autotools and avoid tar timestamp related bugs | 07:44 |
| lifeless | tar + patch I mean | 07:44 |
| superm1 | well surely you still test build, and normally your sbuild/pbuilder env should be mirror the archive though. by doing autotools at build time, the diffs between two different uploads can actually have a sane delta | 07:46 |
| superm1 | i'd take it more of the worry is if you have to do a rebuild later and it just adds another variable for failure when you dont want it | 07:47 |
| infinity | Yeah. It can leave you with unbuildable source packages. Though, really, that would be an autotools bug, generally. | 07:48 |
| infinity | I'm of two minds. | 07:48 |
| infinity | I've historically patched .in files and run autotools at build-time. | 07:48 |
| infinity | But if you run them locally using the same versions as upstream, the diffs still remain small and readable. | 07:48 |
| pitti | infinity: autotools bug> which there are plenty of, apparently :( | 07:48 |
| infinity | At which point, it becomes reasonably moot. | 07:48 |
| infinity | pitti: In all my time doing the "patch .in, run autotools at build time" with the AMP stack, I only ran into one or two times when autotools rendered me unbuildable at a later date. | 07:49 |
| infinity | pitti: Then again, those packages were updated and uploaded frequently enough that they never really suffered code rot. | 07:49 |
| lifeless | pitti: if it randomly becomes unbuildable its straight forward enough to change styles | 07:51 |
| lifeless | mind you the autotool stack is broken-by-design anyway; so its hard to really care. | 07:51 |
| superm1 | mvo, would it be feasible to add a hook to update manager querying if a kernel module is loaded while update manager is running, and if so, to mark a package for installation during the upgrade? | 07:54 |
| superm1 | i'm thinking that would be the better transition than the currently proposed solution for bug 381684 | 07:55 |

| * mvo reads the bugreport | 08:13 | |
| superm1 | mvo, okay cool, more or less if you see 'wl' is loaded, install bcmwl-kernel-source | 08:15 |
| lifeless | pitti: how would you feel about https://launchpad.net/mnemosyne being removed/renamed in favour of https://launchpad.net/mnemosyne-proj? I haven't asked the mnemosyne devs yet, but it was certainly confusing for me to find the former when looking for the latter | 10:10 |

| liw | a flat namespace for project names is becoming an increasingly large problem | 10:12 |

| mok0 | jerroome: replacing getty is the completely wrong way | 14:16 |
| jerroome | ok | 14:16 |
| mok0 | getty is for watching tty connections, terminals, modems and that sort of thing | 14:16 |
| mok0 | jerroome: you can also place a script to start your program in /etc/init.d | 14:17 |

| superm1 | pitti, can I get another set of eyes on the udev rules for hid2hci? I swear I checked that everything worked before I submitted it, but for some reason, the rule is launching hid2hci --method dell -v -p --mode hci (rather than injecting the numbers via $attr{}) | 16:11 |
| pitti | superm1: TBH I don't really know what these are all about, but one thing catches my eye: | 16:13 |
| pitti | superm1: you match on ATTRS in the first rule, but run with $attr | 16:13 |
| pitti | superm1: i. e. the first rule will match on any child device, any of which's parent has idVendor==413c; but the device itself won't have this attribute | 16:14 |
| superm1 | pitti, I thought that's the syntax though? looking through /lib/udev/rules.d, that's how 75-persistent-net-generator.rules does it too | 16:14 |
| pitti | superm1: the other rules should be okay | 16:14 |
| superm1 | oh.. $attr{} doesn't grab from child devices at all? | 16:14 |
| pitti | superm1: s/child/parent/ | 16:14 |
| pitti | superm1: no, I don't think that there's a $attrs{} | 16:14 |
| superm1 | pitti, hm well that would definitely explain it. I'll have to rethink that first rule then. thanks | 16:15 |
| pitti | superm1: is it just the first rule which is broken, or others, too? (the others look fine to me) | 16:15 |
| superm1 | I've only got the hardware for the first rule | 16:15 |
| superm1 | and that's the one I really care about | 16:15 |
| pitti | superm1: I guess KERNEL== will select a particular subdevice of the entire physical device which has vendor/product ID | 16:15 |
| pitti | superm1: oh, and another thing | 16:16 |
| superm1 | pitti, it's perplexing then how I got this working before when I submitted it. .. | 16:16 |
| pitti | superm1: the parent device which SUBSYSTEMS selects must also have the idVendor/idProduct attributes | 16:16 |
| pitti | superm1: I think it's more robust to move this line to the start: | 16:17 |
| pitti | SUBSYSTEM!="usb", GOTO="hid2hci_end" | 16:17 |
| pitti | oh, and use SUBSYSTEMS | 16:17 |
| pitti | unless you are sure that SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor} are on the _same_ parent device | 16:18 |
| superm1 | pitti, okay thanks for the tips. i'll see I can strike a combination that works better and see which devices really have these different attributes with udevadm | 16:18 |
| pitti | superm1: hang on, seems that I lied | 16:19 |
| pitti | $attr does follow the parental chain | 16:19 |
| pitti | superm1: so the only possible explanation that I have is that SUBSYSTEMS, idVendor, and bmAttributes don't all match on the same parent device | 16:20 |
| === dpm_ is now known as dpm | ||
| superm1 | Keybuk, pitti and I were trying to debug a problem with a udev rule and it looks like some really weird behavior is happening. the rule is in udev-extras (62-hid2hci), and supposed to match ATTR{idVendor} and then pass $attr{idVendor} to the command. it's properly matching, but passing " " to the command instead. can you take a look if perhaps this looks like a bug that developed in udev traversing parents? http://pastebin.com/f29b3e865 | 16:40 |
| Keybuk | do you have the rule handy? | 16:41 |
| pitti | Keybuk: in particular, s/udev traversing/$attr traversing/ | 16:41 |
| Keybuk | $attr doesn't traverse parents | 16:41 |
| pitti | Keybuk: the manpage claims otherwise | 16:41 |
| Keybuk | the manpage is wrong | 16:41 |
| pitti | If the matching device does not have such | 16:42 |
| pitti | an attribute, follow the chain of parent devices and use the value | 16:42 |
| pitti | of the first attribute that matches. | 16:42 |
| Keybuk | yeah, it's wrong | 16:42 |
| pitti | Keybuk: well, that'd explain it :) | 16:42 |
| Keybuk | most of the matching stuff in the manpage is bogus these days | 16:42 |
| Keybuk | ATTR, DEVICE, SUBSYSTEM, etc. all match the exact device being operated on | 16:42 |
| pitti | Keybuk: could he instead use $env{ID_PRODUCT} ? | 16:42 |
| Keybuk | ATTRS, SUBSYSTEMS, etc. all match the *same* parent | 16:42 |
| Keybuk | ie. ATTRS{foo}=="x", ATTRS{bar}=="y" will only match a single parent that has both foo=x and bar=y | 16:42 |
| Keybuk | $attr{} expands to the exact device *or* the matched parent | 16:43 |
| pitti | Keybuk: right, the matching already works, we went through that | 16:43 |
| pitti | Keybuk: ATTRS{idProduct} _does_ match, we verified that; but $attrs{idProduct} in RUN is empty | 16:43 |
| Keybuk | can you show me the rule? | 16:43 |
| pitti | KERNEL=="mouse*", SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="413c", ATTRS{bmAttributes}=="e0", \ | 16:43 |
| pitti | RUN+="hid2hci --method dell -v $attr{idVendor} -p $attr{idProduct} --mode hci" | 16:43 |
| Keybuk | hmm, so that _should_ work | 16:44 |
| Keybuk | because $attr{} can match the match parent | 16:44 |
| pitti | that's what I thought | 16:44 |
| Keybuk | idVendor doesn't get expanded? | 16:44 |
| superm1 | right and neither does idProduct | 16:44 |
| pitti | superm1: if you s/$attr{idVendor}/$env{ID_VENDOR}/ does it work then? | 16:44 |
| pitti | superm1: (likewise with product) | 16:44 |
| pitti | superm1: usb_id attaches those | 16:45 |
| Keybuk | env won't work | 16:45 |
| Keybuk | oh, sorry, yes I see | 16:45 |
| superm1 | pitti, yeah $env{ID_VENDOR} works | 16:45 |
| * Keybuk checks the code | 16:45 | |
| Keybuk | /* try to read the attribute of the parent device, other matches have selected */ | 16:46 |
| Keybuk | if (value == NULL && event->dev_parent != NULL && event->dev_parent != event->dev) | 16:46 |
| Keybuk | value = udev_device_get_sysattr_value(event->dev_parent, attr); | 16:46 |
| Keybuk | that should work | 16:46 |
| pitti | Keybuk: "the" parent device is the one that *S matched on? | 16:46 |
| Keybuk | yes | 16:46 |
| pitti | superm1: sounds like worth a bug report then | 16:47 |
| Keybuk | superm1: could you run udevadm with UDEV_LOG=debug before it? | 16:47 |
| pitti | superm1: the rule, --attribute-walk output and udevadm test output should be attached | 16:47 |
| superm1 | Keybuk, sure, the same udevadm test command with UDEV_LOG you mean right? | 16:48 |
| Keybuk | actually, that won't work ;) | 16:48 |
| Keybuk | don't worry | 16:48 |
| Keybuk | hmm | 16:50 |

| Keybuk | weird | 16:52 |
| Keybuk | it definitely works for me | 16:52 |
| * Keybuk tries 142 | 16:52 | |
| superm1 | while you're at that, i'll try downgrading to 141 | 16:53 |
| superm1 | works fine in 141 | 16:54 |
| pitti | the only other $attr in a RUN that we have is | 16:54 |
| pitti | /lib/udev/rules.d/50-udev-default.rules:KERNEL=="fd[0-9]", ACTION=="add", ATTRS{cmos}=="?*", RUN+="create_floppy_devices -c -t $attr{cmos} -m %M -M 0640 -G floppy $root/%k" | 16:54 |
| pitti | I doubt that a missing floppy device would be noticed very fast :) | 16:54 |
| Keybuk | works for me on 142 too | 16:55 |
| superm1 | oh wait, no it doesnt work in 141 for me either. | 16:56 |
| superm1 | (was running with the env{ID_VENDOR} in place) | 16:56 |
| Keybuk | I used this rule@: | 16:57 |
| Keybuk | KERNEL=="mouse*", SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="046d", ATTRS{bmAttributes}=="a0", RUN+="/bin/echo hid2hci --method dell -v $attr{idVendor} -p $attr{idProduct} --mode hci" | 16:57 |
| Keybuk | that's basically identical to yours, right? | 16:57 |
| Keybuk | http://pastebin.com/m25b63e4c | 16:58 |

| Keybuk | udevadm_test: run: '/bin/echo hid2hci --method dell -v 046d -p c047 --mode hci' | 16:59 |

| === cjwatson_ is now known as cjwatson | ||
| superm1 | Keybuk, pitti something about matching with that KERNEL device was messing things up. using this rule works, so i'll just submit this upstream instead I think: ATTR{bInterfaceProtocol}=="02" ATTRS{idVendor}=="413c", ATTRS{bmAttributes}=="e0", \ | 17:23 |
| superm1 | RUN+="hid2hci --method dell -v $attr{idVendor} -p $attr{idProduct} --mode hci" | 17:23 |

| znh | Hello :-) | 17:25 |
| znh | I'm working on a system to help users find solutions to their problems is this the right place to share this? | 17:26 |
| znh_ | any reply yet on the above? Changed connections | 17:32 |
| maxb | znh_: Your question is so very broad, it's unclear what a useful response might be. | 17:33 |
| znh_ | well I'm working on a website that lists questions asked in #ubuntu with replies based on that question. I'd like to share this in some way. | 17:33 |
| znh_ | kinda like a knowledge base | 17:35 |
| maxb | Interesting. Though as I have given up on #ubuntu as being too high traffic to be useful, I'm probably not a useful person to talk to about this. | 17:35 |
| evanrmurphy | znh_: I also think it's interesting. Do you have a link? | 17:39 |
| znh_ | Yes, does this work? http://62.163.12.248/print.php | 17:39 |
| evanrmurphy | znh_: Sure does. Hmmm... | 17:40 |
| znh_ | It's still very primitive but the parsing part is reaching it's goal | 17:41 |
| ccheney | can someone process suitesparse for me, its in new and needed by new version of OOo | 17:43 |
| evanrmurphy | znh_: I'm very much in favor of an innovation along these lines. Speaking broadly and with more pickiness, I'd rather see an advancement integration of Ubuntu's current communication tools rather than the introduction of a new one. | 17:44 |
| * ccheney is going to locally build the package so he can continue his work | 17:44 | |
| dajhorn | znh_: Would it be sensible to add this functionality to ubottu? | 17:45 |
| evanrmurphy | znh_: Imagine a way that questions on IRC could tap into the archives of Ubuntu Forums and Launchpad Answers... | 17:45 |
| znh_ | Hmm... | 17:46 |
| znh_ | or a system that asks input from the user and checks multiple locations | 17:47 |
| znh_ | like Google but more targeted | 17:47 |
| slangasek | ccheney: I'll be a-newin' shortly | 17:49 |
| evanrmurphy | znh_: Well there are the various Google customizations for Ubuntu, two examples: http://www.googlubuntu.com/, http://crunchbang.org/ubuntu-search-engine/ | 17:49 |
| znh_ | okay. How do you imagine the linkage with Ubuntu Forums and Launchpad? | 17:51 |
| evanrmurphy | +1 to dajhorn's question of possible integration with bot functionality. | 17:51 |
| ccheney | slangasek: thanks | 17:51 |
| evanrmurphy | znh_: Wow, good question. Lemme think about that... | 17:51 |
| evanrmurphy | znh_: I remember while reading the about page for Launchpad Answers, that it touted its advantage over IRC and Ubuntu Forums as being the indexing of questions in a searchable database with useful status indicators (new question, open question, etc.). | 17:54 |
| znh_ | in that case this database could be expanded with entries generated on IRC in a manner that Launchpad accepts | 17:55 |
| evanrmurphy | znh_: Btw, as you're looking for the best venues to discuss this project, you should consider the ubuntu-irc mailing list (https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/Ubuntu-irc). I haven't read or posted to it before, but the description (basically meta-discussion about IRC) seems relevant. | 17:59 |
| evanrmurphy | znh_: Yes, I think so (to what you just said). | 17:59 |
| znh_ | I'll give it a thought. Thanks for the feedback :-) | 18:01 |
| evanrmurphy | znh_: There might be some important hunting around to do for the big shots in Launchpad and Ubuntu Forums to get their advice on the feasibility of something like this. If it's possible, I think it could be a big breakthrough for the Ubuntu community and facilitate our communications substantially. | 18:03 |
| evanrmurphy | znh_: Needless to say, I'm excited and interested in the project. Will you keep me posted in the near future as you continue to scout this out? I may be willing to pitch in with the work. | 18:05 |
