StevenK | ArneGoetje: I'd like to change the ibus.desktop to also have NoDisplay=true to hide it in the Applications menu. I've confirmed with both desktop and UNR that the preferences under System->Preferences is a seperate .desktop file. What do you think? | 06:09 |
ArneGoetje | StevenK: IMHO the System->Preferences entry is sufficient, so we don't need any other .desktop file. IMHO it should be removed by upstream. | 06:58 |

tkamppeter | pitti, good morning | 07:14 |
tkamppeter | pitti, one additional thing about CUPS: | 07:15 |
pitti | hi tkamppeter | 07:15 |
pitti | good morning | 07:15 |
tkamppeter | Installing it, adds a blacklist against the usblp module, but if a user updates and the module is loaded, the module keeps dangling around blocking the printers. | 07:16 |
tkamppeter | pitti, Perhaps we should do "rmmod usblp" in postinst. | 07:16 |
pitti | no | 07:17 |
pitti | rmmod is evil, bad, and wrong | 07:17 |
pitti | and it might even fail | 07:17 |
pitti | but perhaps I was missing an update-initramfs call | 07:17 |
pitti | to make the blacklist go into the initramfs, too; otherwise there's a chance that it gets loaded there | 07:17 |
tkamppeter | pitti: Can modprobe more safely remove modules? | 07:18 |
pitti | tkamppeter: no, modules can't guaranteed to be removable | 07:18 |
pitti | something can still use the device, then it will just fail | 07:18 |
pitti | but in the worst case it causes kernel panics and all that | 07:18 |
pitti | tkamppeter: but after a jaunty->karmic upgrade you have to reboot anyway | 07:19 |
tkamppeter | pitti: Should we perhaps set this special bit which is also set on kernel updates and shows the user a pop-up telling him that he needs to reboot? | 07:28 |
pitti | tkamppeter: we can do that, yes; the postinst can check if upgrading from 1.3.x, and check if /usr/share/update-notifier/notify-reboot-required exists, and call that | 07:30 |
pitti | :q | 07:36 |

soreau | That is a very nice looking list though ;) | 14:43 |
ScottK | soreau: A more elegant way to solve the problem would be to put your script into a Debian package and have that package depend on the packages that need to be installed. | 14:44 |
soreau | ScottK: If that were the case, I would just make a deb package compiz-plugins-experimental. The reason for the script is that it should work on other distros too provided the dependencies are installed for that system | 14:45 |
ScottK | Then a dpkg solution won't work either. | 14:46 |
soreau | I'm just tailoring it to fit ubuntu since it's the most popular and more noobs use it | 14:46 |
cjwatson | soreau: it wouldn't be all that much less efficient to just 'apt-get install' them unconditionally, and probably easier | 14:52 |
cjwatson | anyway, dpkg --get-selections is wrong; that lists desired states, not current states | 14:52 |
soreau | cjwatson: That's what it does currently | 14:52 |
soreau | and that's how I'm thinking of keeping it, just tinkering with the script and will write a how-to on the forums | 14:53 |
cjwatson | you probably want something more like the third column of: dpkg-query -W -f '${Status}\n' $packages | 14:53 |
soreau | cjwatson: ok | 14:53 |

Keybuk | - installing over top of Windows, UTC=yes but hardware clock was in localtime | 16:07 |
Keybuk | Live CD doesn't "save back" the time | 16:07 |
Keybuk | so the first boot, you have the wrong time (double timezone) | 16:07 |

Keybuk | then you shutdown and save the hwclock | 16:08 |

davmor2 | Keybuk: bug 423247 | 16:45 |
ubottu | Launchpad bug 423247 in ubuntu "Superblock last mount times cause fsck to fail" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/423247 | 16:45 |
davmor2 | keybuk: is that everything you need or is there anythind else? | 16:46 |
davmor2 | anything even | 16:46 |
Keybuk | don't know, please leave it at that root prompt for a moment | 16:46 |
Keybuk | err | 16:47 |
Keybuk | you haven't pasted all the hwclock output | 16:47 |
Keybuk | more specifically, you haven't pasted THE MOST IMPORTANT BIT! :D | 16:47 |
davmor2 | keybuk: no probs | 16:47 |
davmor2 | I'll add the rest | 16:47 |
Keybuk | interesting that your "last mount time" is an hour in the future | 16:48 |
Keybuk | the real, genuine future | 16:48 |
Keybuk | your hardware clock looks like it has the right value (15:40ish UTC) | 16:48 |
Keybuk | UTC=yes matches that | 16:48 |
Keybuk | your timezone file looks like it has the right value (16:40ish BST) | 16:49 |
Keybuk | and your resulting system clock is right (16:40ish UTC) | 16:49 |
Keybuk | what's _wrong_ is that your filesystem was unmounted at 17:30 BST | 16:49 |
Keybuk | which is an hour from now | 16:49 |
Keybuk | unless Wolverhampton is being dragged into a space time vortex? | 16:49 |
Keybuk | ok | 16:50 |
Keybuk | let's try something else | 16:51 |
Keybuk | can you do the install again | 16:51 |
Keybuk | (wiping it) | 16:51 |
sbeattie | Keybuk: here's the fsck message I see in a vbox guest: http://www.nxnw.org/~steve/tmp/fsck-on-boot.png | 16:51 |
Keybuk | but don't reboot, open a terminal instead | 16:51 |
Keybuk | sbeattie: again, output of "hwclock --debug --show", "grep UTC /etc/default/rcS" and "date" plz | 16:51 |
sbeattie | Keybuk: yep, one sec | 16:52 |
davmor2 | Keybuk: added | 16:52 |
Keybuk | davmor2: thanks - I think this is a problem somewhere in the installer | 16:52 |
Keybuk | davmor2: this is your *first* reboot, right? | 16:52 |
Keybuk | you've not rebooted the real system yet? | 16:53 |
cjwatson | I'm happy to help if it is, but will need advice | 16:53 |
Keybuk | cjwatson: well, the filesystem was unmounted in an hour's time | 16:53 |
Keybuk | and the hardware and system clock are otherwise correct | 16:53 |
Keybuk | so that suggests to me (assuming this is the first boot of the installed system) that the system clock was wrong during the installer session | 16:53 |
Keybuk | (live I guess) | 16:53 |
cjwatson | hmm | 16:54 |
cjwatson | log-output -t clock-setup chroot /target hwclock --systohc --debug & | 16:54 |
davmor2 | Keybuk: On this box this was first reboot from the installed system | 16:54 |
cjwatson | in clock-setup's finish-install script | 16:54 |
cjwatson | I wonder if that's at all related | 16:54 |
Keybuk | errr | 16:54 |
davmor2 | Keybuk: normally it is the first reboot after installation though | 16:54 |
Keybuk | shouldn't think so | 16:54 |
sbeattie | Keybuk: http://www.nxnw.org/~steve/tmp/hwclock-info.png | 16:55 |
Keybuk | davmor2: ok, so we need to go through an install | 16:55 |
Keybuk | and keep checking the hardware and system clocks as we go through each step | 16:55 |
davmor2 | yes | 16:55 |
Keybuk | see if there's some point it goes wrong | 16:55 |
* cjwatson places a small bet on it being in finish-install | 16:55 | |
davmor2 | Keybuk: would this be easier from an alternate cd in expert mode? | 16:55 |
Keybuk | sbeattie: fresh install as well? | 16:55 |
cjwatson | though if it's not there, it'll be in clock-setup when it calls rdate | 16:56 |
Keybuk | davmor2: and alternate install is an entirely different installer ;-) | 16:56 |
cjwatson | davmor2: have you already reproduced it with an alternate CD? | 16:56 |
cjwatson | the alternate and desktop installers do have the bits of code I consider most likely to be causing this problem in common | 16:56 |
cjwatson | but that's an estimate ... | 16:56 |
davmor2 | just checking with kirkland about his | 16:57 |
cr3 | I can kick off an alternate install if anyone likes | 16:57 |
sbeattie | Keybuk: roughly; like I said it happens every cold boot (ubuntu-server install from 24 hours ago). | 16:57 |
Keybuk | cjwatson: oddly, the hardware clock looks *right* though | 16:57 |
Keybuk | sbeattie: weird, because again, your hardware and system clock are right | 16:58 |
cjwatson | presumably the unmount time will be set from the system clock | 16:58 |
Keybuk | welkl | 16:58 |
cjwatson | so if the system clock is wrong, and the hardware clock isn't set (properly) from it on shutdown | 16:58 |
Keybuk | it's very odd that your hardware clock thinks it's 8am ;) | 16:58 |
Keybuk | cjwatson: that's true | 16:58 |
Keybuk | oh | 16:59 |
Keybuk | no | 16:59 |
Keybuk | sbeattie: it's obvious what your problem is | 16:59 |
Keybuk | sbeattie: your hardware clock says 8am, which is PDT not UTC | 16:59 |
Keybuk | but your system has UTC=yes | 16:59 |
Keybuk | so the system clock is set 7 hours wound back from that | 16:59 |
Keybuk | then you boot | 16:59 |
Keybuk | NTP runs | 16:59 |
Keybuk | and resets your system clock forwards | 16:59 |
Keybuk | and then you unmount on shutdown | 17:00 |
Keybuk | with a "future" time | 17:00 |
Keybuk | your "hardware clock" would normally be saved (at least mucking up the clock) | 17:00 |
Keybuk | but since it's a virtual machine... that's discarded | 17:00 |
Keybuk | so you hit it every boot | 17:00 |
Keybuk | sbeattie: change UTC=yes to UTC=no | 17:00 |
davmor2 | cr3: are any of your issues on alternate? | 17:01 |
sbeattie | Keybuk: right; but note this only happens on karmic, do to (apparently?) more strict checking by fsck, jaunty and earlier guests don't hit it on boot. | 17:01 |
cr3 | davmor2: I haven't noticed, I'm preparing an installation now | 17:01 |
Keybuk | sbeattie: not so much | 17:01 |
Keybuk | fsck upstream had slipped in a hack for Ubuntu to not fail on clock errors | 17:01 |
Keybuk | I undid that hack | 17:02 |
sbeattie | Keybuk: oh, hah. | 17:02 |
* sbeattie wanders off to file a bug against virtualbox, for not exporting the actual UTC to the guest. | 17:03 | |

cjwatson | at least not for all but a very few questions | 22:57 |
mathiaz | cjwatson: one question that was asked was the timezone | 22:59 |
mathiaz | cjwatson: the node-preseed generated file has the correct answer (Us/Central) | 22:59 |
cjwatson | right, the value is correct but it doesn't have the flags set properly | 23:00 |
* mathiaz nods | 23:00 | |
cjwatson | flags are set for the questions that were preseeded, but not for those asked interactively | 23:00 |
cjwatson | which implies a cdebconf bug | 23:00 |
davmor2 | bryce: it only effect ubuntu and maybe xubuntu kubuntu is working fine on that ati box | 23:01 |
smoser | slangasek, i'll get those to you, but its going to be a while | 23:03 |
slangasek | smoser: ok. how's testing on the US ones, in the meantime? | 23:05 |
davmor2 | bryce: it appears that there was an issue with the livefs so is the older ati driver | 23:05 |
smoser | well, so far fine other than bug 419306 | 23:06 |
ubottu | Launchpad bug 419306 in python-boto "boto.utils.get_instance_userdata() hangs for a long time if no userdata is provided" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/419306 | 23:06 |
smoser | which we think we have to just document as known issue for this release. | 23:07 |
cjwatson | oh, wait, cdebconf deliberately doesn't save the seen flag in d-i. argh. I'd forgotten about that. | 23:09 |
mathiaz | ttx_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/264075/ | 23:51 |
slangasek | mathiaz: ubuntu-server build is up | 23:55 |
kirkland | slangasek: we're already rsync'ing | 23:58 |
kirkland | slangasek: ;-) | 23:58 |
slangasek | kirkland: good, good | 23:59 |
