[00:12] i have a dude about launchpad ppa, shall I ask here? [00:13] #launchpad === pochu_ is now known as pochu [00:43] bah [00:43] james_w: should have dropped kaffe build-dep from cdbs [00:44] why's that? [00:44] it's in universe [00:46] oops [00:49] do you want a bug for it? [00:54] makes the ant test fail [00:54] I'll look at it tomorrow === marvelous is now known as wonderful [01:48] so I have a suggestion! [01:48] Evolution takes eternity to start. [01:48] Imean literally 11 minutes. [01:48] I want to add stuff to my calendar. Can we do something about this? Access the calendar but NOT the e-mail? [01:49] bluefoxicy: hi; thats really an upstream issue. There is at least one startup time bug filed in gnome bugzilla about this [01:49] (I know, I filied it :P) [01:50] I suggest filing another about controlling the view it starts with etc [01:52] nods [01:57] HAHA, ia64 build is out of disk space [01:57] :o [01:57] i looked to see why it failed to build OOo and it ran out of disk space just installing the build-deps [01:58] but how will i run OOo on my altix now? [01:58] hmm well actually at the unpack stage of OOo but certainly long before any building occured [01:58] directhex: buy a better buildd === rickspencer3 is now known as rickspencer3-afk === cprov is now known as cprov-zzz [03:05] TheMuso: what are your thoughts on disabling flatvol in karmic? (i will ask on the ubuntu-devel list, too) [03:06] TheMuso: seemingly a vocal minority is quite unhappy [03:06] err, i meant ubuntu-devel-discuss [03:10] dtchen: is flatvol going to be revised by PA's developer? otherwise you would be just switching it off forever or facing same minority in the future [03:11] kklimonda: it has already been vastly modified [03:11] kklimonda: i'm currently working through the diffs; i'll be uploading a new ppa version in a few hours [03:12] kklimonda: be aware that it's a vocal minority that seems to dislike it [03:13] I know, but that's the problem, isn't it? [03:14] the *vocal* that is :) [03:14] are there any plans to get partimage onto amd64? There was a bug stopping it but afaik it's long fixed by now... [03:15] hey [03:15] dtchen: fwiw I think that If you could backport those patches to Karmic flat volume should stay [03:15] how can i join the team? [03:15] kklimonda: they will be. [03:17] dtchen: after all lennart is taking beating for PA all the time, it's only natural we should take some of it on ourselves (I think that we shouldn follow upstream when possible) [03:18] kklimonda: oh we definitely take a beating, but that's a story for another time and place. [03:19] :) [03:22] dtchen: are your audio fixes in -6.25 from archive? [03:23] kklimonda: no [03:23] kklimonda: i need to take a few hours to cherry-pick the minimal set [03:26] dtchen: What do we lose if we disable it? [03:26] I couldn't test it in the last few days anyway - had a tough week and couldn't find time to fix some weird problem with nvidia module.. [03:31] TheMuso: no regression from jaunty, since 0.9.15 doesn't have it; we probably will break with other distros shipping 0.9.16, however. [03:32] TheMuso: i'm inclined to leave it enabled, since it's a straightforward conffile mod [03:33] dtchen: Ok sounds fair. === wonderful is now known as vorian === emmy is now known as emma === Amaranth_ is now known as Amaranth === tkamppeter_ is now known as tkamppeter [07:58] good morning [08:35] <\sh> moins [08:36] <\sh> anyone up for some really nasty initramfs + network vlan not coming up + iscsi debugging? :) looks like that this is something which could be a showstopper [08:37] Nope, but I was thinking of doing another round of install on one of my new and shiny bl460c g6's and see what new karmic bugs fall out. ;) [08:38] <\sh> usecase: network consists of bond mode 1 interface and on this one there is a vlan interface...setup some iscsi devices and add a line to /etc/fstab to mount the iscsi device...reboot e voila booting, waitiing for iscsi devices, fail, because network is not fully functional...I see the bondings, but not the vlans which is very strange [08:39] <\sh> therefore, iscsi device won't be mounted, fsck.xfs throws an error and drops me into a shell only with / part mounted [08:40] <\sh> maswan: hehe...the most prominent bugs are teh kernel messages at the very first lines of kernel booting, complaining about non standard acpi crap of the vendor ;) (bl465c here) [08:40] \sh: I'm booting off bnx2x 10GE, which is showing to be interesting driver-wise. ;) [08:41] <\sh> maswan: flex 10? [08:41] \sh: yeah [08:41] To add to the fun, this hardware is all new to me too. :) [08:42] <\sh> maswan: rock on :) we didn't buy the flex 10 just because boss didn't want to provide money for a 10GE infrastructure :) so I'm still on 1GBit/s [08:42] <\sh> maswan: which enclosure? bl7000c or the smaller brother 3000c? [08:42] \sh: 7000c, half-full with the neat nehalem blades with 10GE onboard and a couple of storage blades for databases [08:44] <\sh> maswan: nice :) we have two 7000c (power supply full fledged + fans full fledged and full rows of bl465c (32GBit 2x 300GB 10k SAS drives)...ran a stress test on it...less heat and power then having a full fledged DL365G5 42U rack [08:45] <\sh> maswan: and using fai to deploy them with jaunty less then 10 minutes and you have a full running infra [08:46] <\sh> but for additional storage we are using 4 HP msa2012i but it fails because of the mentioned strange bug above [08:47] <\sh> maswan: and btw...never buy a DL385G5P the new HW design is terrible compared to the DL375G5 [08:47] For additional storage, this is distributed among 4 different countries and 8 sites, these are just central nodes for distributed grid storage stuff. The database is for the namespace etc, and conveniently should fit within 48G. :) [08:48] <\sh> maswan: wow...a nice setup for the ne xtreemFS ;) [08:48] <\sh> s/ne/new/ [08:48] \sh: oh, is it similar or not to the dl380 with 16 2.5"-slots? [08:49] anyway, need to run off, and maybe we should continue this in a /query :) [08:49] <\sh> maswan: the dl385g5p are originally meant to be 385G6, but because of the missing 380G6 (nehalem) they named it g5p and the hw layout is crap...now you need 4 hands to change cpus or mem [08:50] <\sh> damn..meeting..then back to debugging this problem with initramfs + iscsi [08:53] Hi to all, I have a question regarding the creation of deb packages. I'm making a virtual package for 32 and 64 bits platforms, but for 64 bits doesn't exist one package. Does exist a standarized method for solve this issue at debian/control file? [08:56] frandieguez, better asked in #ubuntu-motu [08:57] frandieguez, is it a missing build-dep or a missing binary package? [10:16] asac: Hi - if you have a moment could you glance at bug 410624?

[15:53] mvo: I need to get pkg.installedVersion and pkg.candidateVersion [15:53] and pkg.candidateDependencies, pkg.installedDependencies [15:54] where "pkg" is apt.package.Package() [15:55] is there a better way to do it?

So if your mouse is near by it should fade and blur. [20:20] er, why does launchpad keep logging me out? [20:21] slangasek: do you have to login twice?

Have you asked in #ubuntu+1 ? [20:36] ccheney: I believe so. I don't remember how much it blurred before. I think it only blurred on the button presses. Anyway, blur has been vastly improved in the new version none the less. [20:36] tedg: ok [20:43] siretart: ping [20:43] pgquiles: yes? [20:44] siretart: let's talk about cdrtools :-) [20:44] ok. what about it? [20:45] siretart: you prepared packages of the official cdrtools back in the feisty days but no longer updated them. Did you just lose interest, or did jörg schilling complain ? [20:45] I did package them because schily asked me [20:46] siretart: what about the future? will you create packages for new versions of cdrtools? will they be included in ubuntu? [20:46] 3~+ [20:46] my intend was to get them included into ubuntu, but in the end, the it was ruled that they are not going to be accepted unless schily explained why he refuses to add a small additional clause to his licensing [20:47] siretart: what was that additional clause? [20:48] pgquiles: additional clause to his CDDL libraries like libschily to allow GPL programs like mkisofs and cdda2wav to be linked against it [20:48] this was proposed by the SFLC, but schily refused to even seriously comment on that [20:48] *shrug* [20:49] siretart: I see. I was thinking in taking over your cdrtools package (if it's OK with you) because cdrkit does not work with DVD+RW disks in my laptops' recorders [20:50] btw, it is currently under review in debian (again): http://ftp-master.debian.org/new/schilyutils_20090510-pre9-1.html - the git repository for the packaging can be found on git.debian.org [20:50] siretart: oh, nice [20:50] you might want to join that efford and use that as basis instead of my old package [20:52] siretart: I'll take a look, thanks!

So, if I took the deb-src packages of linux-igd from 9.04, how would I compile that into a deb for 8.04 since linux-igd was completely skipped in hardy? [22:59] Psi-Jack_: potentially just a recompile if it is really simple, or could involve a huge amount of work depending on the package [23:00] Well, it doesn't look complicated. It's got the orig.tar.gz, diff.gz, and .dsc files. [23:00] Psi-Jack_: looks like it might be easy from what it shows as build-depends [23:00] All I need to know, really, is how to have it built. [23:00] use debuild or something on your local box i suppose [23:01] Or a webpage that explains how to do it from these three files. ;) [23:01] maybe use pbuilder if you don't want to install all the build-depends on your system [23:01] iirc with that you can just point it at the .dsc as well [23:01] I don't mind if I have to really.

[23:20] Well, blah. [23:20] Guess I'll just hafta up my eBox up to 1.3, from 9.04 and try it out. heh [23:38] jml: are you online?
