pittiGood morning08:36
RampagePSgood morning08:40
TheMusodtchen: There have actually been discussions here at the sprint this week about making bi-arch pulse libs available. It requires touching a lot of  dependencies, but I think cjwatson's aim was to clean up ia32-libs somewhat. He may be able to fill you in more about what the foundations team plan is.08:57
davmor2bryce_away: bug 403175 the issue I have is that with the fglrx driver enabled I get no terminals etc at all, so I can't run any commands to help track down the issue.  If there is a way around that then I might be able to help you out more.  With the fglrx driver disabled in any manner the system works fine.  I'll hopefully be running some tests latter today so I'll see a) if it's still and issue and b)If I can acce09:03

ubottuLaunchpad bug 407951 in dutch "Sync dutch 1:1.10-1 (main) from Debian unstable (main)." [Wishlist,New]09:13
cjwatsonnenolod: sure, but nothing relevant has changed in jaunty that recently, so I wonder if it's some other environmental difference triggering it09:18
nenolodnot sure.  i'll investigate more and open a bug where appropriate.09:19
AnAntHello, is it possible for an app using notify-OSD to disable "truncation" capability from notification daemon ?09:20
* dupondje hopes somebody can sync dutch package from unstable, cause it fixes a quite annoying bug !09:26
tseliotpitti: can you remove the dontzap package from Karmic, please?09:43
StevenKtseliot: It's broken?09:43
tseliotStevenK: no, it's just that zapping can be enabled/disabled with setxkbmap and there are UIs (in Gnome and KDE) to do that in Karmic09:44
tseliotStevenK: actually, yes, it's broken ;)09:45
StevenKtseliot: Oh, where's the UI in Gnome?09:46
StevenKtseliot: This was being complained about in the -devel ML09:47
tseliotStevenK: System/Preferences/Keyboard then select the layouts tab and click the layout options button09:48
* tseliot should write a tutorial about this in GNOME and KDE...09:48
RiddellI was about to ask, where's the GUI in KDE09:48
tseliotRiddell: System Settings -> Region & Language. Then select Keyboard layout in the treeview, select the Advanced tab and you will find the "Key sequence to kill the X server"09:50
tseliotRiddell: this means that you can drop my patch for zapping from kdebase09:53
Riddelltseliot: so it is, not very discoverable but it's in there09:54
Riddelltseliot: yes the patch has gone09:54
tseliotRiddell: something worth mentioning in the release notes, no?09:55

seb128dupondje, subscribe the ubuntu-main-sponsors to the bug12:03
dupondjethey are subscribed :)12:05
seb128dupondje, so what are you asking for exactly?12:06
dupondjeif it could be synced, cause it removes a crappy bug in the 'dutch' package :)12:07
seb128it probably could and it will when somebody will have looked at it12:07
seb128if nobody did is that because people are either on holiday or busy usually12:07

Sarvattplars: whats your problem? tapping not working?14:44
Sarvattor multi finger tapping not working?14:44
plarsSarvatt: tap not working at all, seems to be disabled by default14:44
Sarvattcan you pastebin the output of synclient -l?14:45
Sarvatti'm getting a problem where the ubuntu kernel detects my touchpad as a generic mouse about 1/10 boots14:47
Sarvatt(so tapping isnt working in that case)14:48
Sarvattbut a sudo rmmod psmouse && sudo modprobe psmouse fixes that14:48
plarsSarvatt: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/24800914:48
Sarvattah yep your tapping is disabled14:49
plarsSarvatt: I know, I can manually enable it and it all starts working14:49
Sarvattdo you have it enabled in system - preferences - mouse - touchpad?14:49
plarsSarvatt: no, but enabling it there causes it to work14:50
Sarvattif it was the generic mouse instead of touchpad problem i have synclient wouldnt show anything so it isnt that at least14:50
Sarvattah yeah if you have it disabled there it turns all the TapButton options off when the session loads14:50
Sarvattit should remember it on reboot and work fine now that you set it14:51
Sarvattit loads with tapbuttons enabled when x starts, then when your gnome session starts gnome-settings-daemon disables the tap buttons if you have it turned off in there14:52
plarsSarvatt: but apparently the default is for it to be turned off14:53
Sarvattyep thats intended. /desktop/gnome/peripherals/touchpad/tap_to_click <default>FALSE</default>14:56
plarsSarvatt: why is it intentional for tap to click to be turned off?14:57
Sarvattits only turned on by default for people that have touchpads without physical buttons, i'm not the one who decides that just saying what I see :D14:59
plarsSarvatt: ok... confusing, but ok :)15:02

bryceSarvatt, btw asac ran into a problem with ppa-purge; it resulted in wanting to remove a bunch of extra packages15:08
pittitkamppeter: so perhaps cups init script should do something like15:14
pittiudevadm trigger --subsystem-match=usb --attr-match=bInterfaceClass=07 --verbose15:14
pittitkamppeter: oops, without the --verbose15:14
pittitkamppeter: if you run it on a machine with a printer (with --verbose), it should show the device(s)15:15
Sarvattasac: ping :) curious what problem you had, i could see it trying to remove multiple PPAs with certain combinations on the 0.2.1 version that should be fixed in 0.2.215:21
bryceSarvatt, asac was thinking he may have built the packages against xorg-edgers15:22
Sarvattgot me curious what it tried to remove, guessing it was an aptitude proposed solution for something15:28
Sarvattbryce: btw intel could use a no change rebuild now so it builds with all the new dri2proto 2.1 features since xserver was upgraded15:31

jmljames_w, the fix for the setBranch bug is on edge.16:23
james_wjml: thanks, I'll work on the script now16:24
jmljames_w, np.16:24
hdonoh i needed -D_GNU_SOURCE16:25
cjwatsonhdon: you need to put '#define _XOPEN_SOURCE 500' at the very top. See the "Feature Test Macros" node in 'info libc'16:25
cjwatson(or yes, _GNU_SOURCE will do as well)16:25
cjwatsondefining _XOPEN_SOURCE 500 is the surgical thing that gets you just what you want; _GNU_SOURCE is the great big sledgehammer.16:25
hdoncjwatson: i don't suppose you know the feature test macro that will give me struct passwd::pw_age et al16:26
hdonoh i see. pw_age doesn't seem to exist on linux16:28
hdonor maybe this is a glibc thing16:29
slangasek"age" is not POSIX16:30
hdonslangasek: yeah i just figured that out16:31
hdonthanks :)16:31
cjwatsonhdon: I don't see pw_age in the header files at all16:33
hdoncjwatson: it's not POSIX. sorry16:34
hdoncjwatson: it's not GNU either16:34
hdoncjwatson: it's an AT&T thing, apparently also supported on Solaris, which is where the code i'm working with comes from16:34
hdonalso pw_comment is an AT&T thing on Solaris as well16:34
hdonaccording to google codesearch (because i can't find real documentation on it) i can rely on the ATT_COMMENT and ATT_AGE macros16:35
cjwatsontried just looking at the header files on Solaris to see if they check any definitions before including pw_age?16:35
james_wjml: script is running. slowly.16:48
jmljames_w, I wonder how long it'll take16:49
james_whmm, perhaps a DB query is better16:49

superm1cjwatson, ping. i was talking to mvo about a problem with mythbuntu tasks last week and he identified it to be that the machine generating the task headers is running germinate on universe, restricted, and main, but not multiverse.  he had wanted to discuss it with you though due to any unexpected repercussions of enabling tasks for multiverse16:53

asacSarvatt: does the ppa-purge run autoremove or something?17:02
asacSarvatt: it kind of removed a similar package list that autoremove would have removed. installing ubuntu-desktop explicitly helped to keep the packages on my system ... so now i think i am on pure karmic again :/17:03
asacat least i hope17:03
Sarvattnope it only does an apt-get install package/distro17:03
Sarvattthen an aptitude install package/distro if that fails because the package doesnt exist in the distro17:04
