evand | cjwatson: out of curiosity, is there a historical reason why we do not honor the value of clock-setup/ntp-server in the ntpdate package? I had initially assumed it was used beyond just setting the clock at install time, but that does not appear to be the case. | 09:51 |
---|---|---|
cjwatson | ntpdate shouldn't honour it itself but maybe clock-setup should adjust ntpdate's configuration ... | 09:58 |
cjwatson | (I don't *know* of a reason) | 09:58 |
evand | filed as bug 388343 | 10:07 |

evand | I don't think it's a priority -- I haven't heard anyone complaining about it -- but it seemed a bit odd and I wanted to get it written down somewhere. | 10:08 |
davmor2 | cjwatson: cd is now ejecting correctly :D | 10:09 |
cjwatson | excellent | 10:10 |
davmor2 | I'm still getting the mounted harddrive issue though | 10:11 |
evand | hrm, we/I never made a branch for casper hardy changes :-/ | 10:15 |

xivulon | evand I did more tests yesterday on r136, it seems good to me | 10:43 |
xivulon | I also left a message on #ubuntu-testing | 10:43 |
xivulon | it is up to you and steve at this stage I guess | 10:43 |
evand | given that we cannot reroll CDs, am I safe in assuming you'd like to put this as the download on wubi-installer.org? | 10:46 |
xivulon | evand wubi-installer.org download is redirected to ubuntu.com | 10:47 |
xivulon | so what I mean is replacing http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.04/wubi.exe | 10:48 |
evand | okay | 10:49 |
evand | so you've tested it, davmor2 has tested it, and I'm assuming you put out a call for testing to ubuntuforums but didn't get any replies, correct? | 10:49 |
xivulon | call for testing was on r134 | 10:49 |
xivulon | plus made a request for r136 on #ubuntu-testing | 10:50 |
xivulon | you might want to run a quick test just in case | 10:50 |
xivulon | feedback on the bug reports where people have tried 134 is good | 10:50 |
xivulon | on a separate not would it be possible to generate a casper initrd (with lupin) from http://people.ubuntu.com/~apw/lp376120-jaunty/ ? | 10:51 |
xivulon | and then upload vmlinuz and initrd.gz somewhere, so it would be easier to find testers for 376120 | 10:52 |
xivulon | davmor2 ^ | 10:52 |
evand | xivulon: testing r136 myself now, then I'll run it by slangasek | 11:02 |
xivulon | thanks, I already mentioned that to steve at UDS | 11:03 |
evand | then I'll address the initrd issue | 11:03 |
xivulon | hm actually it might be better to backport the patch (http://people.ubuntu.com/~apw/lp376120-jaunty/0001-Fix-_fat_bmap-locking.patch) to 2.6.28-11 | 11:03 |
xivulon | actually evand, wait on 136 | 11:09 |
xivulon | let me investigate 386733 first | 11:10 |
evand | well, already running through an install, but I'll see what you come back with on that | 11:10 |
xivulon | I will have to that tonight | 11:13 |
juliux | hi | 11:39 |
juliux | i try atm to use preseed again to install my systems at work, i try to create a root an a /var partion | 11:41 |
juliux | that is how the part from preseed looks http://paste.ubuntuusers.de/395524/ | 11:42 |
cjwatson | juliux: ok ...? | 11:49 |
juliux | i got an error | 11:55 |
juliux | the installer says no root partition | 11:55 |
cjwatson | we'll need to see full logs | 11:55 |
cjwatson | syslog and partman | 11:55 |
juliux | but the preseed looks ok? | 11:56 |
cjwatson | I didn't see an obvious problem at first glance, but you only gave me a small fragment of the preseed file of course | 11:57 |
cjwatson | it would be helpful to have all the information to hand, obviously with any passwords removed | 11:57 |
juliux | http://paste.ubuntuusers.de/395525/ | 11:58 |
juliux | that is the whole preseed.cfg | 11:58 |
juliux | bbl lunchtime | 11:59 |
cjwatson | you don't need partman-auto/choose_recipe, but that shouldn't matter | 12:00 |
cjwatson | ok, get back to me when you have the logs | 12:00 |
cjwatson | juliux: oh, there's a missing backslash at the end of one line | 12:01 |
cjwatson | format{ } \ | 12:01 |
cjwatson | use_filesystem{ } | 12:01 |
cjwatson | filesystem{ ext3 } \ | 12:01 |
cjwatson | juliux: fix that ... | 12:01 |
evand | cjwatson: if you have a free moment today, I'm keen to get your thoughts on the ubiquity-slideshow discussion I just moved to ubuntu-installer, having written previous versions of the specification yourself, and those versions using HTML for the slides. | 12:11 |
cjwatson | ok, will see what I can do | 12:26 |
evand | thanks, much appreciated | 12:40 |
juliux | cjwatson: http://ubuntu.juliux.de/partman and http://ubuntu.juliux.de/syslog | 13:10 |
cjwatson | you should probably also say "d-i partman/choose_partition select finish" rather than "d-i partman/choose_partition select Finish partitioning and write changes to disk | 13:11 |
cjwatson | but I don't expect that would cause a problem in the absence of the other bug in your preseed file | 13:12 |
cjwatson | the missing backslash has rather badly confused the preseed file parser I think | 13:14 |
juliux | ok | 13:14 |
juliux | i have fixed the mssing backslash | 13:14 |
juliux | and changed the d-i partman/choose_partion select finish row | 13:17 |
juliux | looks good know | 13:17 |
juliux | now | 13:18 |
juliux | cjwatson: i got it work, but is there a way to say take the rest of the harddisk for a special partition? | 13:32 |
cjwatson | just add another partition to the recipe with an enormous weighting? | 13:33 |
cjwatson | there's no way to leave unallocated space in a partitioning recipe (Debian #297201), but you can always create a big placeholder partition | 13:34 |

evand | rgreening: hi | 14:38 |
rgreening | have you tried to run usb-creator from trunk under karmic recently? | 14:38 |
evand | I was actually in the middle of attempting to do just that | 14:38 |
rgreening | evand: crash bang boom | 14:38 |
evand | indeed | 14:38 |
evand | digging | 14:39 |
rgreening | I upgraded to karmic... bad idea | 14:39 |
rgreening | :( | 14:39 |
rgreening | I think it's dbus and policykit related, cause it does not ask me to enter a gksu password anymore. | 14:39 |
rgreening | evand: hmm... the format causes a crash... but just make disk is running... | 14:42 |
rgreening | evand: any ideas | 14:59 |
evand | digging at it | 14:59 |
rgreening | k | 14:59 |

davmor2 | evand: I've just finished a bunch of tests on wubi r136 seems fine. It downloads everything it's meant to and seem to be behaving itself nice apart from the vfat issue | 15:03 |
davmor2 | I haven't tried it on windows 7 but vista and xp ntfs are okay :) | 15:05 |
evand | davmor2: I tried it in windows 7 and sent an email to ago saying that it was successful | 15:05 |
evand | he wanted to look into a bug before we proceeded though | 15:05 |
davmor2 | evand: Cool :) | 15:05 |
davmor2 | I saw I just finished read the scroll back :) | 15:06 |
* evand stabs HAL repeatedly | 15:12 | |

rgreening | evand: still digging... must be 6' or more by now :) | 17:21 |
evand | rgreening: heh, I'm not sure at the moment. I had suspected it was device notification changes for devices that didn't exist anymore, but apparently not. | 17:22 |
rgreening | evand: I wonder if it's a volid (uuid) change? | 17:23 |
* rgreening is probably talking out my a$$ | 17:23 | |
evand | I commented out the property change notification code entirely and it's still crashing | 17:24 |
evand | so yeah, will have to dig deeper | 17:24 |
evand | but I have to run out and pick up dinner, so it'll have to wait until later | 17:25 |
rgreening | ok, I have some of the gobject stuff ported... | 17:25 |
rgreening | though I'll need some same eyes to review my port | 17:25 |
rgreening | evand: ^ :) | 17:25 |
evand | sure, perhaps push to another branch and I can review it when I get back? | 17:26 |
rgreening | evand: I have changes in a new (temporary) kbackend.py so as to not disrupt the backend.py. | 17:27 |
rgreening | So I can push that and delete it later when we merge back to a single backend | 17:28 |
rgreening | if ok... | 17:28 |
evand | sure | 17:32 |
evand | works for me | 17:32 |
cr3 | evand: ping, got a minute to help me understand some preseeding of ubiquity? | 19:49 |
CIA-4 | usb-creator: rgreening * r111 usb-creator/usbcreator/ (kbackend.py kde_frontend.py): | 20:00 |
CIA-4 | usb-creator: Begin to rip out gobject from backend.py. Temporarily add kbackend.py (mirror backend.py) and | 20:00 |
CIA-4 | usb-creator: re-write gobject calls to new wrappers in kde_frontend.py. Similar will need to be done for | 20:00 |
CIA-4 | usb-creator: gtk_frontend.py and then move kbackend.py to backend.py (once gtk_frontend.py pieces are | 20:00 |
CIA-4 | usb-creator: implemented). kde_frontend.py will use kbackend.py until this is done (for test and proof of | 20:00 |
CIA-4 | usb-creator: concept). | 20:00 |
rgreening | evand: ping | 20:02 |
rgreening | evand: I've committed the first phase. I'll work on the remaining gobject calls later. I think this will work fine. | 20:04 |
rgreening | evand: was fun to implement gobject_add in qt (not!) :) | 20:05 |
rgreening | timeout_add I mean... | 20:05 |
