| dtchen | right-o | 00:44 |

| TheMuso | Right. | 00:45 |
| TheMuso | bryce: Are any of you on the X team aware that the latest nvidia 180 drivers in the archive don't build against 2.6.31? If not, I'll file a bug. | 00:45 |
| bryce | TheMuso, -nvidia will be broken until we get a new version from Nvidia built against .31 | 00:47 |
| directhex | Viper550, actually, it's been considered and marked as a "not happening without a damn good reason" | 00:47 |

| TheMuso | bryce: Ok. | 00:47 |
| bryce | TheMuso, bug #394262 already covers this | 00:47 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 394262 in nvidia-graphics-drivers-180 "[Karmic] nvidia DKMS building and installation for kernel 2.6.31-1-generic fails with exit status 10" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/394262 | 00:48 |
| TheMuso | bryce: ok thanks | 00:48 |
| TheMuso | Might set up nouveau then, as I want to give 2.6.31 a whirl. | 00:48 |
| bryce | TheMuso, this is normal; the binary drivers always break at this point in the cycle when the kernel (or xserver) gets updated to new API/ABI stuff | 00:48 |
| TheMuso | yeah I wasn't sure whether a fix was in the short term pipeline, thats all. | 00:49 |
| bryce | TheMuso, that'd be great | 00:49 |
| TheMuso | but I am aware of such breakage. | 00:49 |
| bryce | doubtful | 00:49 |
| bryce | we'll see though, Nvidia tends to be reasonably quick, although it could be several weeks | 00:49 |
| TheMuso | bryce: Do I need to create a xorg.conf file for nouveau similar to nvidia? COuld I just change the driver name in the xorg.conf file I have now? | 00:50 |
| bryce | TheMuso, yeah pretty much | 00:51 |
| TheMuso | ok | 00:52 |
| superm1 | TheMuso, if it looks obvious, you can write a kernel patch that can be applied by dkms too | 00:52 |
| bryce | -nvidia sometimes needs a lot of stuff in xorg.conf that nouveau won't need, so actually you could probably strip a lot of stuff out | 00:52 |
| superm1 | until nvidia has a new version | 00:52 |
| TheMuso | ...and nouveau fails to build as well. I'll see if I can track down a fix for that. | 00:52 |
| superm1 | TheMuso, a quick google yields: http://leigh123linux.fedorapeople.org/pub/patches/nvidia-185.18.14.patch | 00:52 |
| TheMuso | superm1: pOk thanks, I wasn't going to bother with that, but I'll take a look. | 00:53 |
| dtchen | that and you just have to modify dkms.conf, and you're on your way | 00:53 |
| superm1 | here's the whole thread for it: http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?p=1231266 | 00:53 |
| bryce | superm1, weird, that patch looks familiar for some reason | 00:53 |
| bryce | superm1, is that the same change that's done to fglrx to make it build with .31? | 00:53 |
| superm1 | bryce, I don't think i've submitted anything for fglrx to build on .31 | 00:54 |
| superm1 | bryce, i've tracked down a ton of stuff for .29 and .30 though | 00:54 |
| dtchen | it's very likely the same change | 00:54 |
| bryce | superm1, I think it was Sarvatt or Tormod that mentioned it to me | 00:55 |
| superm1 | knowing that i2c changed a lot, I think it's quite a hacky solution though to just remove i2c alltogether like that.. | 00:56 |
| dtchen | yeah, should poke zander for a real fix | 00:56 |
| RAOF | TheMuso: Nouveau'll fail until I update the nouveau-kernel-source package. Doing this requires updating the xserver-xorg-video-nouveau package, and libdrm-nouveau1 package, so there are a couple of pieces that need to fall into place first :) | 01:01 |
| TheMuso | RAOF: Ok. I think at this point I'll just stick with 2.6.30. 2.6.31 is not urgent. | 01:02 |
| RAOF | If you're lucky, the new nouveau stack will even do KMS. And if you're _super_ lucky, it might even bring up X with kms enabled! | 01:03 |
| ccheney | TheMuso: yea 2.6.31 crashes on boot for me :-\ | 01:03 |
| TheMuso | ccheney: It doesn't crash for me, I just don't have X. | 01:03 |
| * ccheney thinks he will have to do a nice manually type in of the crash dump later to report the bug | 01:04 | |
| TheMuso | Mind you, I've only tried 2.6.31 on my desktop. | 01:05 |
| TheMuso | My notebook will likely be another story. | 01:05 |
| ccheney | ah i tried booting it on my x200 | 01:05 |
| ccheney | grr this is really annoying every time i restore my firefox it eventually crashes before finishing loading everything | 01:06 |
| cjwatson | EvanCarroll: that's one package, afaict. I understand you're upset but I wish you'd stop generalising that to all of Debian's perl packaging, which is not as broken as all that | 01:10 |
| cjwatson | EvanCarroll: it's pretty aggravating for those of us who package (small amounts of) perl stuff in Debian without this kind of problem | 01:11 |
| cjwatson | and I don't think the problem I believe you're talking about has anything to do with core perl in Debian | 01:12 |
| EvanCarroll | cjwatson: the issue is with anything debian modifies that is perl. | 01:15 |
| EvanCarroll | cjwatson: It is totally wrong on its face. | 01:15 |
| cjwatson | how is that in any way specific to perl? | 01:15 |
| cjwatson | you could say the same thing about any distro patch (although it's only actually a problem in a minority of cases) | 01:15 |
| EvanCarroll | I never said it was, I said it was specific to the way debian packages perl. it is all kinds of wrong. | 01:16 |
| cjwatson | no, it's really not | 01:16 |
| EvanCarroll | Yes, it really is. | 01:16 |
| EvanCarroll | You see, you don't, if you're sane, open up a namespace and just drop your own stuff into it. | 01:16 |
| cjwatson | from previous discussions, you're objecting to a patch that's been applied to one of the xml modules, changing its interface | 01:16 |
| EvanCarroll | that completely defeats the purpose of a namespace. | 01:16 |
| cjwatson | and distro changes to interfaces are often unwise, sure | 01:16 |
| cjwatson | that has zero to do with perl packaging in Debian as a whole | 01:16 |
| cjwatson | it's a single maintainer doing a silly thing | 01:17 |
| EvanCarroll | No, I'm objecting to the debian policy that makes that kind of patch acceptable and ubiquitious | 01:17 |
| cjwatson | but it's not ubiquitous | 01:17 |
| EvanCarroll | Debian does it all over. | 01:17 |
| ccheney | anyone know if there is a way to dump the current list of open webpages in a firefox profile? i can't get my firefox to come back up even with disabling all extensions | 01:17 |
| cjwatson | that's a gross overstatement | 01:17 |
| bryce | ccheney, wow I'd love to know how to do that | 01:17 |
| bryce | that'd be *so* handy | 01:17 |
| ccheney | asac: ping ^ ? :) | 01:17 |
| ccheney | bryce: its probably in some sqlite format or something but any way to dump it at all would be useful | 01:18 |
| * bryce nods | 01:18 | |
| ccheney | i have probably 100 tabs that i no longer can access :-\ | 01:18 |
| cjwatson | ccheney: it's in sessionstore.js in your profile | 01:18 |
| cjwatson | you can run it through indent or whatever and then read it out fairly straightforwardly | 01:19 |
| ccheney | cjwatson: thanks! :) | 01:19 |
| cjwatson | some json library might even be able to parse it properly for you | 01:19 |
| * ccheney hugs cjwatson | 01:19 | |
| cjwatson | ah, no, sessionstore.js is apparently not json | 01:23 |
| ccheney | cjwatson: do you know if there is a way to make indent properly break a js single line file that is 800KB? | 01:23 |
| cjwatson | no, I think I had to fiddle about a bit last I tried that | 01:24 |
| ccheney | ok | 01:24 |
| cjwatson | ccheney: googling for "sessionstore.js parse" has some useful hits | 01:25 |
| ccheney | ah thanks for the tip :) | 01:25 |
| cjwatson | including e.g. http://tsukasa.net.au/~hg/greg_stuff/file/tip/parse_sessionsstore.py (untried) | 01:25 |
| cjwatson | ... breaks for me, probably requires some munging | 01:26 |

| ccheney | 1542 urls for mine, lol | 01:35 |

| cjwatson | ccheney: if you look at the file structure in more detail, closed tabs are in a different part of the file, and it's easy to distinguish the things that are open right now | 01:40 |
| ccheney | ah ok | 01:40 |
| * ccheney notes his two year old came up and told him it was time to eat, and pulled his highchair out | 01:43 | |
| ccheney | bryce: the script seems to be slightly off still only showed me 5 urls | 01:44 |
| bryce | ccheney, hmm, maybe it is printing only one url per window, rather than one per tab | 01:46 |
| bryce | yeah | 01:47 |

| TheMuso | Gah, turns out the kernel patch that rtkit needs is not even in 2.6.31 yet, and yet rtkit docs say you need 2.6.31 or newer. Since we are at rc1, I would have thought that is what he meant. :) | 11:31 |
| TheMuso | s/he/Lennart | 11:31 |
| pitti | TheMuso: hm, and it doesn't work at all without rtkit? | 11:32 |
| pitti | shouldn't it work at least as good as with 0.9.15 without rtkit? | 11:32 |
| TheMuso | pitti: I don't know what happens without rtkit. | 11:34 |
| TheMuso | I think pulse just won't work with realtime privileges. | 11:35 |
| TheMuso | However the patch does appear to be in a tree that gets merged periodically into mainline. | 11:35 |
| * TheMuso pulls the tree to see what branch the patch resides in. | 11:36 | |
| cjwatson | tseliot: I doubt your debian/control matters; surely it's more important what patch you're applying to debian-installer when rebuilding it? | 11:36 |
| tseliot | cjwatson: patch? I only added my udeb to the binary_local-udebs directory of my project | 11:38 |
| cjwatson | that's not sufficient | 11:38 |
| cjwatson | you're expecting this to be used at d-i startup, right? before d-i gets round to loading any bits of itself from the archive? | 11:38 |
| cjwatson | that kind of implies rebuilding d-i ... | 11:38 |
| cjwatson | if you don't want to do that, I wish you'd said earlier, since I'd have suggested a different approach :) | 11:39 |
| tseliot | cjwatson: yes so that I can abort the installation on some hardware units | 11:39 |
| tseliot | oh | 11:39 |
| cjwatson | therefore you have to rebuild d-i with product-check listed somewhere appropriate under build/pkg-lists/, maybe build/pkg-lists/base | 11:39 |
| cjwatson | and then the contents of the product-check udeb will be embedded into the initrd as a result | 11:40 |
| cjwatson | d-i's build process will have to be pointed at your archive | 11:40 |
| tseliot | cjwatson: hmm... this is all I have in my project: https://pastebin.canonical.com/19272/ | 11:43 |
| cjwatson | something of all of that is an apt archive, right? | 11:44 |
| cjwatson | anyway, I'm not going to debug your archive layout for you :-) | 11:45 |
| cjwatson | just advising what would need to be changed | 11:45 |
| tseliot | cjwatson: ok, thanks | 11:45 |
| cjwatson | if binary_local-udebs (odd name) is an apt archive, it can be included in d-i's build process | 11:45 |
| cjwatson | there's a sources.list equivalent around somewhere in there | 11:45 |
| cjwatson | easiest is to just build it and watch the output closely, you'll pick up what's going on | 11:46 |
| cjwatson | does mean that you'll have to deliver the updated initrd somehow | 11:46 |

| ogra | thats my karmic lpinfo | 12:49 |
| ogra | looks fine to me | 12:50 |
| pitti | indeed | 12:50 |
| ogra | doesnt print a testpage though | 12:50 |
| pitti | so this needs some error_log after a print attempt, I think | 12:50 |
| ogra | [02/Jul/2009:13:46:49 +0200] Resume-Printer: Unauthorized | 12:50 |
| ogra | looks suspicious | 12:50 |
| pitti | ogra: can you do "cupsctl --debug-logging", then print something, then "cupsctl --no-debug-logging", then put error_log somewhere? | 12:51 |
| pitti | ah, the log is usually full of "unauth" stuff | 12:51 |
| ogra | hmm | 12:52 |
| ogra | after cupsctl --debug-logging the printer ui doesnt react anymore | 12:52 |
| ogra | i cant click on "print testpage" | 12:52 |
| ogra | i mean, i can but nothing happens | 12:52 |
| pitti | lpstat -p has the job? | 12:52 |
| pitti | sorry, lpstat; lpstat -p is printer status (also interesting) | 12:53 |

| ogra | no job, UI unresponsive | 12:53 |
| ogra | i cant close it either | 12:53 |

| ogra | it thinks the printer prints | 12:54 |
| ogra | which it doesnt | 12:54 |
| pitti | sounds like a hplip bug then | 12:55 |
| pitti | ogra: do you have some stuff in error_log now? | 12:55 |
| pitti | it should have the filter chain, etc. | 12:55 |
| ogra | yep ... but also says it printed successfully | 12:55 |
| pitti | ogra: I'd recommend opening a hplip bug with that error_log and lpstat stuff | 12:55 |
| ogra | i can put it up, but there seem to be no errors | 12:55 |
| ogra | ok | 12:55 |
| ogra | will do, thanks a lot | 12:56 |
| pitti | upstream reads them, too, and have a clue about hplip | 12:56 |
| ogra | its a bit weird, until recently that was the most reliable printer in my house ... | 12:56 |
| ogra | strange that it stopped working on all ubuntus here | 12:57 |
| pitti | <IT crowd voice>Hello, IT, have you tried turning it off and on again? | 12:57 |
| ogra | indeed | 12:57 |

| ogra | and i removed it and left it finding itself on plugin etc | 12:58 |
| * ogra thinks he did everythig a dumb user can do before digging deeper :) | 12:58 | |
| pitti | and today is not Tuesday, so it's not that infamous file bug | 12:58 |
| ogra | heh, no, i thought that first when susie told me she couldnt print last week | 12:59 |
| ogra | she though i'm kidding when i asked which day it was | 12:59 |

| seb128 | grrrr | 13:55 |
| seb128 | what can be making load on a box and not been listed as using cpu in top for example? | 13:56 |
| seb128 | my laptop has a 3.65 load | 13:56 |
| seb128 | but nothing is using cpu in an obvious way | 13:56 |
| MacSlow | nasty | 13:56 |
| seb128 | it's doing nothing I just have IRC running | 13:56 |
| MacSlow | seb128, something in the kernel itself maybe? | 13:56 |
| seb128 | dunni | 13:57 |
| seb128 | dunno | 13:57 |
| seb128 | that's why I'm asking ;-) | 13:57 |
| MacSlow | seb128, I assume stuff like top & Co only show user-space processes | 13:57 |
| Laney | iotop? | 13:57 |
| seb128 | Laney, the disk doesn't seem to be busy it makes no noise | 13:58 |
| seb128 | hum | 13:58 |
| seb128 | 0.00 B/s 35.76 K/s 0.00 % 0.00 % gconfd-2 | 13:58 |
| walters | one thing to keep in mind is that top compresses threads by default, but each runnable thread contributes to load i think | 13:58 |
| glatzor | mvo, hello. I will be offline now until sunday or saturday. see you! I just comitted some improvements to the console client | 13:59 |
| mvo | glatzor: thanks, you rock | 14:00 |
| mvo | glatzor: I look at bit into xapian now | 14:00 |
| seb128 | ok it's gconfd | 14:00 |
| asac | MacSlow: ? | 14:09 |
| MacSlow | asac, still/again wifi issues | 14:09 |
| MacSlow | asac, not sure if it's a NetworkManager or ath9k thing | 14:10 |
| asac | MacSlow: did you try backport-modules yet? | 14:10 |
| MacSlow | asac, after pulling and plugging back in the ath9k PCMCIA-card I only results from "iwlist scan" for about 10 secs | 14:11 |
| seb128 | Laney, thanks, iotop has been useful to figure it was gconf being busy | 14:13 |
| asac | MacSlow: try installing linux-backports-modules-hardy | 14:13 |
| Laney | seb128: no worries, it's been useful for me in similar situations before | 14:13 |
| alex-weej | anyone have any idea why a boat load of processes keep wakign up in karmic? | 14:13 |
| alex-weej | it's literally frying my legs | 14:13 |
| alex-weej | stuff like indicator applet has used 18 seconds of CPU time since about 20 mins ago | 14:14 |
| asac | MacSlow: that might also fix your intel thing | 14:14 |
| alex-weej | i am watching top and there are about 30 processes always running | 14:15 |
| MacSlow | asac, rebooting with that... was missing from the 2.6.30-10 update | 14:15 |
| alex-weej | and gconfd2 is going absolutely mental | 14:16 |
| seb128 | alex-weej, your issue is probably some application doing lot of gconf queries | 14:18 |
| alex-weej | gconfd2 is just one of many processes going off a lot | 14:19 |
| seb128 | alex-weej, that's what I had some minutes ago, see the log | 14:19 |
| seb128 | restarting the session made things better ;-) | 14:19 |
| seb128 | not sure how to track easily what is talking to gconf | 14:19 |
| seb128 | one frequent issue is things being restarted in loop by gnome-session | 14:19 |
| seb128 | ie nautilus when not drawning the desktop or vino | 14:19 |
| seb128 | hum ok so probably a different one | 14:19 |
| asac | MacSlow: huh? you are not on hardy? | 14:19 |
| MacSlow | asac, I'm (need to be) on karmic | 14:20 |
| ogra | MacSlow, karmic has .31 | 14:20 |
| alex-weej | seb128, looking at the process list, it seems everything gconf-using is running pretty much all the time | 14:20 |
| MacSlow | asac, backports-modules was missing | 14:20 |
| MacSlow | ogra, I know, but can't use that as it has broken KMS for my i965 | 14:21 |
| asac | MacSlow: ah. ok. still 3945 doesnt work for you? | 14:21 |
| seb128 | alex-weej, do you use compiz? | 14:21 |
| ogra | hmm, works on my i965 | 14:21 |
| MacSlow | ogra, nothing really works for me | 14:21 |
| ogra | 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03) | 14:21 |
| MacSlow | asac, yes the iwl3945 is very likely to be broken | 14:21 |
| asac | MacSlow: i would really suggest to file a kernel bug and poke them directly | 14:22 |
| MacSlow | ogra, under 2.6.31 my laptop doesn't even boot | 14:22 |

| tgpraveen | MacSlow: hi in karmic it is planned to suppress notify-osd bubbles which are non critical for fulsscreen apps. | 14:26 |
| tgpraveen | so will empathy/pidgin msgs be critical or non critical? | 14:27 |
| MacSlow | tgpraveen, that is the plan | 14:27 |
| MacSlow | tgpraveen, notifications from apps such as IM-clients should be either low or normal... not critical | 14:27 |
| tgpraveen | MacSlow: but that will mean that if i am watching a movie and my friend IMs me i will miss it till the movie completes. is this not a bad thing? | 14:28 |
| tgpraveen | IM msgs, voice calls are all critical as they require immediate response unlike say emails. will there be a setting to change this atleas? | 14:29 |
| MacSlow | tgpraveen, I don't think so | 14:29 |
| MacSlow | tgpraveen, if it is urgent would be pinged again from your friend | 14:29 |
| MacSlow | tgpraveen, besides e.g. watching a movie is also meant to set you state to "busy" or "unavailable" so your friend won't be surprised if you don't respond right away | 14:30 |
| tgpraveen | MacSlow: well in many use cases i might be watching the movie while i wait for my friend to contact me. also i dont understand waht u say above | 14:32 |
| tgpraveen | "he would ping again" even if he does then also no notification will come and hence wont have any effect | 14:32 |
| MacSlow | tgpraveen, don't make the movie fullscreen then | 14:32 |
| MacSlow | asac, you know what that's all about | 14:33 |
| MacSlow | tgpraveen, btw.. you should be talking to the Design folks not me, regarding such issues | 14:33 |
| tgpraveen | MacSlow: if a explicit do-not-disturb mode is there then i can understand no notifications but if i am say available status in IM then i guess my frnds would expect me t o reply | 14:34 |

| jdstrand | didrocks: hi! so I found the 'quickly' project and had some trouble. I don't have time to work through all of it right now, but I did a checkout, then installed everything found in debian/control, did quickly new ubuntu-project ... and everything seemed to work. problem is that it told me to click a ui file to update the gui, but that didn't work. .ui wasn't associated with glade apparently, and trying to start it didn't work either | 14:51 |
| jdstrand | didrocks: this is using jaunty bt | 14:51 |
| jdstrand | w | 14:51 |
| jdstrand | btw | 14:51 |
| didrocks | jdstrand: hum, this seems more a glade issue. I will try it on jaunty this evening | 14:52 |
| seb128 | jdstrand, do you get glade used when clicking on a .ui in nautilus? | 14:53 |

| didrocks | jdstrand: also, you can try "quickly glade" in the project | 14:54 |
| seb128 | jdstrand, hum in fact that's not supposed to be working apparently | 14:54 |
| jdstrand | seb128: I didn't at first, but now am (weird) | 14:54 |
| seb128 | (which is probably a bug) | 14:54 |
| jdstrand | seb128: oh, not weird, I think I told it to open with glade via the application chooser thingie | 14:55 |
| jdstrand | s/am/is/ | 14:55 |
| jdstrand | regardless, opening glade and trying to open the .ui file explicitly didn't work either | 14:55 |
| jdstrand | I got the following error: Failed to load ....ui. The following catalogs are unavailable: ... | 14:56 |
| didrocks | jdstrand: thanks because we use .xml file for ours widget | 14:56 |
| jdstrand | I'm a bit new to glade-- seems the catalog is the xml file? well, that xml file does exist | 14:56 |
| didrocks | jdstrand: does the documentation tell to double-clic in a .ui file? | 14:56 |
| didrocks | normally quickly glade what it has to do for you | 14:57 |
| didrocks | +does | 14:57 |
| MacSlow | jpds, trunk | 14:57 |
| jdstrand | didrocks: after running quickly it starts the application, which has some text telling me to double click the .ui file to edit the interface | 14:57 |
| MacSlow | jpds, I also have patched/updated g-p-m and g-s-d in my PPA | 14:57 |
| didrocks | jdstrand: ok, I must ask rick to update it | 14:57 |
| MacSlow | jpds, I don't know if those all made it into karmic's main repo yet though | 14:58 |
| jdstrand | didrocks: quickly glade from within the directory worked | 14:58 |
| jpds | MacSlow: Oh, I looked in the commit history and couldn't find a revision with it. | 14:58 |
| jdstrand | cool | 14:58 |
| jdstrand | so maybe it is just a doc update | 14:58 |
| jdstrand | s/doc/template/ | 14:58 |
| MacSlow | jdstrand, maybe it's a duplicate I didn't mark yet and thus wasn't marked as fixed | 14:59 |
| didrocks | yes. I will do it this evening and adding some stuff to quicklyl release | 14:59 |
| didrocks | (doc update) | 14:59 |
| MacSlow | jdstrand, sorry. | 15:00 |
| MacSlow | jpds, maybe it's a duplicate I didn't mark yet and thus wasn't marked as fixed | 15:00 |

| === BenSee is now known as BenC | ||
| === emm is now known as emma | ||
| superm1 | pitti, bryce: so if xorg.conf is going to be fully gone by default, what do you guys think about shipping an xorg.conf inside xorg-driver-fglrx and nvidia-glx-* that diverts any user xorg.conf, and then puts it's own while the package is installed? | 17:28 |
| superm1 | that'd mean jockey wouldn't need to do all sorts of work mucking around with the xorg.conf in the first (common) place | 17:29 |
| === dpm is now known as dpm-afk | ||
| bryce | superm1, it sounds ok to me | 17:30 |
| bryce | superm1, though I wonder if the user has configured input devices or something, if we'd still need jockey to do its thing | 17:30 |
| superm1 | bryce, oh hmm. what input device config stuff ends up in there? | 17:31 |
| superm1 | I thought that should have all been fdi files | 17:31 |
| superm1 | or whatever the successor will be in the new hal-less era | 17:31 |
| ScottK | superm1: Just because it's not there by default, doesn't mean it's completely gone. I think you need to take care not to muck up what a user has put there. | 17:31 |
| superm1 | ScottK, well you are more likely to have a successful boot when adding and removing one of those drivers if you give it a fresh start I seem to feel though | 17:32 |
| pitti | superm1: in theory there's nothing that stops nvidia's postinst from doing the exact same python-xkit invocation than jocokey | 17:32 |
| superm1 | along the lines of bryce's comment the other day that "what cases do we still need bulletproofx" | 17:32 |
| pitti | with the added benefit that it would work with apt-get | 17:33 |
| pitti | right, I woudln't entirely divert it away | 17:33 |
| pitti | just check "can I change this", and then change it inline | 17:33 |
| ScottK | superm1: I can understand it simplifies the problem significantly, but that still doesn't make it OK to throw away user changes. | 17:34 |
| superm1 | pitti, well then perhaps checking if the file doesn't exist, adding in one, and taking note that you did so then, and removing it when you purge | 17:34 |
| pitti | superm1: right, that's pretty much what jockey does as well | 17:34 |
| superm1 | ScottK, yeah that's why i was saying to divert it, user changes would still be there, and they could merge them at their leisure | 17:35 |
| ScottK | Ah, that seems a bit user hostile to me. | 17:35 |
| pitti | as a compromise, it could create a default xorg.conf (or change the standard boilerplate one), and if you have a custom one, do nothing | 17:36 |
| pitti | that would still cover the common case | 17:36 |
| pitti | and if you hand-crafted your xorg.conf, you won't need hand-holding | 17:36 |
| superm1 | yeah that sounds somewhat more sane. then you can still depend on having jockey do it's modifications if you had the custom one, and let the package ship and remove it's otherwise | 17:37 |
| bryce | yeah that sounds safer to me as well | 17:38 |
| AnAnt | Hello, I have a question that guys on ubuntu-motu weren't able to answer, it's regarding sl-modem packaging | 17:39 |
| AnAnt | https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-motu/2009-June/005910.html | 17:39 |
| bryce | you're right that hopefully the majority of input device configuration no longer needs done through xorg.conf, but it seems there is often still random corner cases left | 17:39 |
| AnAnt | can someone lead me to where I can ask about udev related stuff ? | 17:39 |
| pitti | AnAnt: /join #udev | 17:40 |
| pitti | (I hang out there as well) | 17:40 |
| AnAnt | pitti: hmmm, ok, but did you read the URL ? | 17:40 |
| pitti | AnAnt: oops, no | 17:40 |
| didrocks | jdstrand: "quickly" creates a better initial ui file now (a recent commit introduced 6000 instead of 600 as width). I fixed also the welcoming message. If you want to test, you can bzr pull ;) | 17:41 |
| pitti | AnAnt: I don't see why sl-modem couldn't ship a .rules file which creates those devices | 17:41 |
| pitti | AnAnt: however, it seems weird to me that you have to do that in the first place | 17:41 |
| pitti | AnAnt: usually, devices are created in the kernel in /sys | 17:42 |
| AnAnt | pitti: even if I do that, there's something that needs to be done in the C code itself | 17:42 |
| pitti | AnAnt: if there's no real device behind the /dev node, then it wouldn't make sense to have it? | 17:42 |
| pitti | AnAnt: what does it need to do with udev? | 17:42 |
| ogra | pitti, tricky if they are virtually attached to a serial port | 17:42 |
| AnAnt | pitti: well, sl-modem needs a /dev/slamr (or /dev/slusb) | 17:42 |
| pitti | right, but if you mknod a new device, then there needs to be a kernel driver behind it which does the actual open() | 17:43 |
| pitti | isn't sl-modem purely an userspace driver? | 17:43 |
| pitti | and if it does have a kernel portion, why doesn't this just register a device properly, so that udev will "just create" it? | 17:43 |
| AnAnt | pitti: there are the slamr & slusb kernel modules | 17:43 |
| AnAnt | pitti: well, it doesn't, I posted the udevadm output | 17:44 |
| AnAnt | pitti: the problem is that Ubuntu doesn't want static devices to be created | 17:44 |
| pitti | AnAnt: so you are saying that the kernel functions to register a device are GPL only? | 17:44 |
| pitti | AnAnt: right, static devices are wrong | 17:45 |
| AnAnt | pitti: well, that's what I understand from the current maintainers | 17:45 |
| ogra | AnAnt, .rules can match on pretty much everything, your UEVENT has a DEVPATH=/bus/pci/drivers/slamr | 17:45 |
| pitti | EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(class_device_register); | 17:46 |
| pitti | oh | 17:46 |
| AnAnt | pitti: well, I don't understand, if the code is 3-clase BSD, why does it have a problem with the GPL class_device_register function ? | 17:46 |
| pitti | hm, then I'm afraid I don't really have a good answer here | 17:46 |
| pitti | AnAnt: I don't know :/ | 17:46 |
| AnAnt | isn't GPL compatible with 3-clase BSD | 17:46 |
| AnAnt | ok | 17:46 |
| AnAnt | you think ubuntu-kernel guys can help ? | 17:47 |
| pitti | I don't know, worth a try | 17:47 |
| AnAnt | ogra: I hope that would help, thanks for the tip ! | 17:47 |
| pitti | ogra, AnAnt: but I don't understand that | 17:48 |
| ogra | the udev side should be the easiest part :) | 17:48 |
| ogra | pitti, i think it took ian several months when he enabled it forst | 17:48 |
| pitti | how can a driver be legal to load, and bind to a major/minor, but not register a sysfs object to create the device automatically? | 17:48 |
| ogra | *first | 17:48 |
| ogra | it was never ported to sysfs support ? | 17:49 |
| pitti | if that's a real limitation, then it's super-easy to circumvent with a custom udev rule, so that would be silly | 17:49 |
| ogra | is it even alive upstream anywhere ? | 17:49 |
| pitti | allegedly not | 17:49 |
| ogra | right, thats the prob i suspect | 17:49 |
| AnAnt | pitti: there's a long discussion in debian bug 354216 aboutit | 17:50 |
| ubottu | Debian bug 354216 in sl-modem-source "upstream license patched in debian package" [Unknown,Closed] http://bugs.debian.org/354216 | 17:50 |
| AnAnt | I tried to understand, but it's really way above my head | 17:50 |
| AnAnt | ogra: they just accept patches | 17:50 |
| AnAnt | ogra: I mailed them the relevant patches of Ubuntu & Debian packages, and they accepted it | 17:51 |
| ogra | right, but nobody actively forward ported the code | 17:51 |
| AnAnt | ogra: nope, the old active developers don't answer emails | 17:51 |
| ogra | my assumption is it was ported from 2.4 to 2.6 and then never actively developed to match teh new models | 17:51 |
| ogra | static dev -> udev -> sysfs etc ... | 17:52 |
| ogra | it kept only alive through hackish patches | 17:52 |
| ogra | and workarounds | 17:52 |
| AnAnt | yup | 17:52 |
| AnAnt | and ppl still need it | 17:53 |
| ogra | indeed | 17:53 |
| AnAnt | ogra: do you know how to match this DEVPATH=/bus/pci/drivers/slamr in a udev rules file ? | 17:55 |
| ogra | man udev ? | 17:55 |
| AnAnt | pitti: btw, there is some workaround that the previous debian maintainer did that I don't understand | 17:55 |
| ogra | shoudl describe it | 17:56 |
| AnAnt | he done this: MODULE_LICENSE("Dual BSD/GPL"); | 17:56 |
| AnAnt | well, I would understand if he done MODULE_LICENSE("BSD"); | 17:56 |
| AnAnt | but I dunno why he done it Dual BSD/GPL | 17:56 |
| AnAnt | in upstream code it was: MODULE_LICENSE("Smart Link Ltd."); | 17:57 |
| AnAnt | which is not a license, but rather a copyright holder | 17:57 |
| AnAnt | so changing it to a license is what I can understand | 17:57 |
| AnAnt | but I don't understand that he set it to BSD/GPL ! | 17:58 |
| pitti | AnAnt: perhaps to coerce the GPL checks for above exported functions to accept it? | 17:58 |
| AnAnt | pitti: but wouldn't that be an illegal workaround ? | 17:58 |
| pitti | that's what the bug was all about :) | 17:59 |
| AnAnt | aha | 17:59 |
| AnAnt | yet debian-legal seems to have accepted it | 17:59 |
| pitti | I have no clue at all how EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL works, though | 17:59 |
| AnAnt | ok | 17:59 |
| AnAnt | thanks guys | 18:00 |
| * pitti is into code, not licenses.. | 18:00 | |
| tjaalton | pitti, bryce, superm1: or we default to fglrx, nvidia on those if it's installed, and the fallback is the free driver (+ vesa, fbdev) | 18:27 |
| superm1 | tjaalton, yeah that would be even more ideal. easy to do? | 18:27 |
| tjaalton | superm1: quite easy | 18:27 |
| pitti | tjaalton: right, wasn't that already a patch upstream, which got reverted later, and heavily disputed? | 18:28 |
| tjaalton | upstream dropped one such patch, but said that it's up to the distros to do that kind of stuff | 18:28 |
| tjaalton | pitti: yep | 18:28 |
| pitti | TheMuso: FWIW, still no sound with latest pulse :( | 18:29 |

| pitti | cjwatson, Keybuk: this morning I did some i915 debugging and noticed that the screen gets disabled as soon as KMS loads _if_ i915 is not loaded from initramfs, but from normal udev init script (udevtrigger); in http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19304#c88, Jesse pointed out that this is likely due to missing fbcon | 20:03 |
| ubottu | Freedesktop bug 19304 in Driver/intel "[i945 FBC] spontaneous black screen (major pipe-A underrun)" [Major,Resolved: fixed] | 20:03 |
| pitti | cjwatson, Keybuk: is that intentional, and did we commit to always load the driver from initramfs now? or a bug? | 20:04 |
| ScottK | directhex: Mono may or may not be evil, but it's stopping kdebindings on armel.

| ScottK | ogra: Thanks. Would you please hit retry on kdebindings then when it's fixed .... | 20:08 |

| ogra | ScottK, lucky you ... i'm committed to provite all of ubuntu-desktop on arm | 20:11 |
| ScottK | ogra: I'd drop it period, not just on one arch. We don't have and KDE stuff packaged that actually uses mono. | 20:12 |
| ogra | yeah, we have f-spot, tomboy and soon banshee | 20:12 |
| * ScottK vaguely remembers reading some mail list stuff and blog posts about that. ;-) | 20:14 | |
| ogra | nah, you must be hallucinating :) | 20:14 |
| ScottK | Wouldn't be the first time. | 20:14 |
| directhex | ScottK, okay, give me a minute to beat meebey with a spoon | 20:19 |
| ScottK | directhex: You did see ogra said he was working on it, right? | 20:20 |
| directhex | ScottK, yeah. i think the fix is known, it just hasn't been uploaded yet | 20:20 |
| ogra | directhex, funnily i dont see 2.4+dfsg-5 anywhere but on the ftbfs list ... how did it enter ubuntu ? | 20:21 |
| directhex | ogra, it built fine on all non-arm arches | 20:21 |
| directhex | ogra, upstream told us that some arch-specific flags were no longer needed - they lied | 20:21 |
| directhex | let me check git | 20:22 |

| vimpulse | hi all. I attached a patch to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/partman-auto/+bug/94382 to change the string "Use the entire disk" to "Erase and use entire disk" two weeks ago. Because the bug could be considered a data loss bug, could someone please increase the priority? Or better yet, cjwatson or TheMuso, could you please review and commit the patch? :) | 20:22 |
| ogra | directhex, very likely --with-gc=boehm in ./configure ... | 20:22 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 94382 in partman-auto "[PATCH] "Use the entire disk" is unclear; please rename to "Erase and use the entire disk"" [Medium,Confirmed] | 20:22 |
| directhex | ogra, yes, but only on arm | 20:22 |
| ogra | directhex, and a dep on libgc | 20:22 |
| directhex | let me check -3 which worked | 20:22 |
| ogra | right, thats what i'm testbuilding atm | 20:23 |
| cjwatson | pitti: we didn't commit to always loading it from initramfs, as far as I know | 20:23 |
| ogra | directhex, that drops EABI support on ARM though, which we would like to have ... | 20:23 |
| directhex | -4 even | 20:23 |
| cjwatson | vimpulse: I don't consider it a data loss bug; please don't inflate issues. We'll look at it | 20:23 |
| cjwatson | vimpulse: it needs translations so we won't rush it | 20:23 |
| cjwatson | vimpulse: oh, heck, and it's on partman-auto - that really needs to go through Debian | 20:24 |
| cjwatson | oh, but you patched ubiquity for it, ok | 20:24 |
| vimpulse | cjwatson: ok, I'm glad to know you saw the patch. :) What does "it needs translations" mean -- that it shouldn't be committed until the translators make up foreign-language translations? | 20:25 |
| cjwatson | no | 20:25 |
| cjwatson | it just means that it's not a panic-upload-immediately-to-everywhere-we-can kind of thing | 20:25 |
| cjwatson | which is what "data loss" tends to imply | 20:25 |
| vimpulse | cjwatson: what are the steps before it gets committed? | 20:26 |
| cjwatson | vimpulse: you've done everything you need to do, thanks | 20:26 |
| directhex | i think http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-mono/packages/mono.git;a=commit;h=86dceb1f4a0089e324b9bf2c2a998b7ebf79f597 broke it | 20:26 |
| ogra | hmm | 20:26 |
| directhex | ogra, can you try building it with the above change reverted? | 20:26 |
| cjwatson | vimpulse: (btw, #ubuntu-installer is more appropriate) | 20:26 |
| vimpulse | cjwatson: thanks for the info. Also, next time I have ubiquity-related questions, I will ask in ubuntu-installer. | 20:27 |
| ogra | directhex, i will, i'm waiting for the --with-gc=boehm build to finish though since i dont want to have wasted that build time | 20:27 |
| cjwatson | vimpulse: should be able to commit that tonight | 20:28 |
| vimpulse | cjwatson: excellent :) | 20:28 |
| * ogra wanders away for a while while his arm board builds ... | 20:28 | |
| directhex | ogra, this looks like the only commit affecting arm between -4 and -5 | 20:29 |
| directhex | ogra, i think it might break kfreebsd though | 20:29 |
| directhex | i'm sure you care lots about breaking kfreebsd on ubuntu | 20:29 |
| ScottK | We do have a downstream that probably cares. | 20:31 |
| gp_will_be_back_ | hi | 20:35 |
| directhex | ScottK, well, until Front Desk/DAM make the appropriate changes, -6 needs to wait on meebey. so reverting the above commit for a hurried -5ubuntu1 is probably the best plan for hurried developers. | 20:38 |
| YokoZar | Plenary videos appear to be up! | 20:39 |
| * ScottK looks at ogra then | 20:39 | |
