[00:10] <shtylman> cjwatson_: I am curious to know...is it possible to have the live cd detect and use dmraid? or to install dmraid on the target?
[00:11] <shtylman> currently, to install on my software raid setup, I need to install the dmraid package manually in the live cd as well as the target after the installer finishes installing...was wondering if there is a simple approach to an easier way for the end user?
[00:16] <cjwatson_> we'd need to get dmraid properly integrated into ubiquity, which shouldn't be *too* hard now ... wasn't somebody working on that?
[00:16] <cjwatson_> basically just needs to have partitioner support
[00:18] <shtylman> I see
[00:19] <cjwatson_> it's probably just a matter of depending on (or recommending?) dmraid and emulating the stuff from disk-detect.sh, actually
[00:19] <cjwatson_> or whatever bits of it are necessary
[00:22] <shtylman> does the cd have the space for dmraid?
[00:24] <cjwatson_> well, that's always a problem, but the package is only 34KB
[00:25] <cjwatson_> oh, well, libdmraid is another 100KB or so
[00:25] <cjwatson_> as features go it's fairly light
[00:25] <shtylman> I see
[00:26] <shtylman> well...it would sure put an end to this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto
[00:26] <shtylman> which has been really helpful to me... but also more work than the average person would want to do I imagine...
[00:27] <shtylman> and the grub instructions are probly wrong now as well
[00:27] <shtylman> (which reminds me...I should grab the next daily cd and try to make new instructions with grub2)
[00:42] <cjwatson_> I'd love to see dmraid support in ubiquity and would happily review a patch
[00:49] <shtylman> sounds like an open invitation to explore... :) ... where would I start?
[01:39] <cjwatson> shtylman: I'm actually not sure where this belongs. Maybe ubiquity/components/partman.py but that can easily get run multiple times so care would be needed. At the moment there really doesn't seem to be an equivalent of the disk detection step. Maybe it should just be done at ubiquity startup ...
[04:05] <shtylman> cjwatson: where do I find disk-detect.sh ?
[04:07] <shtylman> nvm... on that...found it...
[04:11] <shtylman> cjwatson: does this comment still hold? : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/44609/comments/8
[04:11] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 44609 in ubiquity "RAID not implemented (use alternate CD instead)" [Wishlist,Confirmed]
[04:12] <shtylman> any idea on what happens if those directories exist before I start ubiquity?
[08:01] <mcw> anyone up
[08:01] <mcw> ??
[14:46] <bu> hello there!
[20:58] <SiDi> MadsRH: boo
[20:59] <MadsRH> SiDi -> :P
[21:02] <SiDi> MadsRH: im gonna try to code it on my side
[21:03] <SiDi> you're on gnome withh default DPI / font size, right ?
[21:05] <MadsRH> SiDi -> okay
[21:05] <MadsRH> yes
[21:05] <SiDi> find me the exact px value of 1 em then please :)
[21:05] <SiDi> or the value of 1px in em :P
[21:06] <MadsRH> *working*
[21:07] <SiDi> thanks
[21:08] <MadsRH> hhmmm, not sure about this, but could it be 0,07em
[21:10] <MadsRH> nope, that's not it
[21:10] <SiDi> 0,0625 ?
[21:11] <SiDi> MadsRH: ^
[21:12] <MadsRH> Stupid task!
[21:13] <MadsRH> I get 0,062542857
[21:13] <SiDi> 0,0625 will be enough =D
[21:14] <SiDi> thanks MadsRH
[21:30] <MadsRH> SiDi -> I can't provide the PNG right now. Will I be able to just replace the JPG file and the link in your file to make it work?
[21:33] <SiDi> Yeh
[21:33] <SiDi> the jpg will most likely be broken anyway
[21:33] <SiDi> there's way too much position absolute in this CSS :|
[21:46] <SiDi> MadsRH: http://imagebin.ca/img/LBtpoZHf.png ready for production ?
[21:47] <MadsRH> SiDi -> perhaps some finetuning ;-)
[21:48] <MadsRH> SiDi -> I'll just logout for a few minutes. I need to reboot to grab the images from the other harddrive (don't ask!)
[21:48] <SiDi> haha no problem
[22:21] <MadsRH> SiDi -> http://files.getdropbox.com/u/175241/images.tar.gz
[22:21] <SiDi> thanks
[22:21] <SiDi> err 404
[22:35] <SiDi> MadsRH: the icon is actually always meant to be in the bottom right ?
[22:37] <MadsRH> Sidi -> right. They have a white line a the bottom
[22:38] <SiDi> i'm gonna put them as background images then
[22:38] <SiDi> MadsRH: your link above is wrong, i get a 404, btw
[22:39] <SiDi> err, whatever, works now :|
[22:39] <MadsRH> Okay, but can you still do the no-text-over-image then?
[22:39] <MadsRH> SiDi -> Dropbox just needed to finish the upload
[22:40] <SiDi> yeh i can
[22:50] <SiDi> actually im not gonna do it cause i'd have to use a style markup property or several CSS files
[22:50] <SiDi> :P
[23:03] <MadsRH> SiDi -> Should we push all your changes to the madsrh-layout branch?
[23:09] <SiDi> MadsRH: wait, i'm far from finished :P
[23:09] <SiDi> you should make another branch to preserve the current one
[23:09] <SiDi> i found out why there was some position:absolute
[23:09] <SiDi> it's because webkit sucks.
[23:09] <SiDi> it cant properly pre-render relative positions
[23:09] <MadsRH> SiDi -> ha ha
[23:10] <SiDi> yeh. it looked ugly when loading a slide
[23:10] <SiDi> it was moving from the bottom to the top, instead of taking its position directly
[23:11] <MadsRH> Sorry, I didin't know that. Would have been nice with a heads-up there
[23:15] <MadsRH> I'm past midtnight here, so is there anyway I can ask you politely to make the new branch?
[23:16] <SiDi> MadsRH: i cant push branches here, just catch me tomorrow ;)
[23:16] <SiDi> btw, text over icon is much harder with damn absolute positions....
[23:17] <MadsRH> :-D
[23:17] <SiDi> (probably impossible actually)
[23:17] <SiDi> (absolute positionning is the evil)
[23:17] <SiDi> (and some icons are missing ;P)
[23:17] <MadsRH> Perhaps another crossfade script would work better?
[23:18] <MadsRH> More icons - I know - todo!
[23:18] <SiDi> i dont know
[23:18] <SiDi> it looks webkit-ish to me
[23:20] <MadsRH> Anyway, sincerely thank you for helping out. If I'm not on IRC, just e-mail me MadsRH@Gmail.com
