| slangasek | and defeat the purpose of 'console' at all in the case of cryptsetup | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| slangasek | it only wants it for prompting, not output | 00:00 |
| slangasek | (rather: if there's no prompting, there's no reason to output either) | 00:00 |
| Keybuk | does it defeat it? | 00:01 |
| Keybuk | not sure | 00:02 |
| slangasek | cryptsetup wants the console for prompting | 00:02 |
| slangasek | does that work with 'console output'? | 00:02 |
| Keybuk | yeah, but does it need to have it as the controlling terminal? | 00:02 |
| Keybuk | sure, the difference between the two is whether you get signals from the console driver | 00:03 |
| slangasek | ok, then perhaps not | 00:03 |
| Keybuk | if cryptsetup doesn't need SIGHUP, SIGINT, SIGTSTP, etc. it should be ok | 00:03 |
| Keybuk | but I still don't like the idea of cryptsetup prompting for a passphrase while X is running | 00:03 |
| Keybuk | sits badly with me | 00:03 |
| * jdong watches some funky policykit-gnome-auth-handler-thingie arise out of this discussion... | 00:04 | |
| Keybuk | god know | 00:04 |
| Keybuk | god no even | 00:04 |
| jdong | haha joking :) | 00:04 |
| slangasek | Keybuk: no, I agree, I think we either need cryptsetup to block X until it's done, or die when the dm starts | 00:04 |
| Keybuk | right | 00:04 |
| Keybuk | but then I start to wonder whether the same shouldn't really be true of mountall as well | 00:05 |
| Keybuk | should we really be checking filesystems behind X ? | 00:05 |
| slangasek | perhaps not... but mountall is trickier because it may be running waiting for remote filesystems and there's no way presently to distinguish that from the "going to fsck" case? | 00:06 |
| slangasek | I guess it could emit a "no more fsck" signal | 00:06 |
| slangasek | anyway, is mountall getting fixed to talk to usplash for karmic so people don't get into a reboot loop wondering why their systems have hung at boot? | 00:07 |
| Keybuk | doesn't cryptsetup use X already? | 00:07 |
| Keybuk | err | 00:07 |
| Keybuk | I mean use usplash already? | 00:07 |
| slangasek | should do | 00:08 |
| slangasek | but you're the one who added the 'console owner' upstart job, so I don't know :) | 00:08 |
| Keybuk | yeah I think that was wrong of me ;) | 00:09 |
| slangasek | heh :) | 00:09 |
| Keybuk | writing an operating system is *hard& | 00:11 |
| crypt-0 | anyone know how to prevent malicious hardware initialization while im away? | 00:13 |
| crypt-0 | is stopping hald while im good enough? | 00:13 |
| Keybuk | crypt-0: turn off the machine? | 00:14 |
| chrisccoulson | i would go one further and unplug it from the wall | 00:14 |
| chrisccoulson | just in case it switches itself back on again | 00:15 |
| Keybuk | chrisccoulson: I was being serious ;) rather than just joking | 00:15 |
| slangasek | right, you only need to disable wake-on-lan for the latter | 00:15 |
| chrisccoulson | Keybuk - i wasn't sure if you were being serious or not ;) | 00:15 |
| cjwatson | Keybuk: I wonder if it would make sense to use usplash's bogl backend on KMS | 00:17 |
| Keybuk | cjwatson: isn't it only 16-colour? | 00:17 |
| cjwatson | 256 | 00:17 |
| cjwatson | I don't think that's intrinsic anyway, depends on the framebuffer type | 00:18 |
| Keybuk | hmm | 00:18 |
| Keybuk | how easy would it be to test? :p | 00:18 |
| slangasek | is the current problem KMS-specific? | 00:19 |
| crypt-0 | Keybuk, besides turning off the machine | 00:19 |
| slangasek | or would we need another solution for !KMS cryptsetup users? | 00:19 |
| Keybuk | current problem? | 00:19 |
| Keybuk | crypt-0: if you want to avoid attack, powering off the machine is the only solution | 00:19 |
| slangasek | Keybuk: the bug number I cited 800 lines ago? | 00:19 |
| cjwatson | Keybuk: I think you just need to nobble uplash_setup_func | 00:19 |
| Keybuk | I don't think bogl vs. svgalib is relevant here | 00:19 |
| cjwatson | usplash_setup_funcs | 00:19 |
| crypt-0 | Keybuk, why wont stopping hald work? | 00:19 |
| cjwatson | apparently my key is a bit wonky | 00:19 |
| crypt-0 | Keybuk, can i PM you? | 00:20 |
| Keybuk | crypt-0: no. | 00:20 |
| Keybuk | crypt-0: seriously though, there's no way to disable things against malicious use short of powering down the box | 00:23 |
| Keybuk | crypt-0: assumedly you're leaving it up so you can access | 00:23 |
| Keybuk | crypt-0: well, so can naughty people | 00:23 |
| Keybuk | (and for the exact question you were asking, hardware configuration and activation is largely performed by the kernel - which you kinda need running <g>) | 00:24 |
| Keybuk | so my answer was correct | 00:24 |
| LaserJock | am I supposed to have green check marks on all my files? | 00:29 |
| TheMuso | LaserJock: Known, its an UbuntuOne bug. | 00:29 |
| LaserJock | oh | 00:29 |
| LaserJock | can I just uninstall UbuntuOne and it'll go away? | 00:29 |
| TheMuso | I guess so, I don't know for sure./ | 00:29 |
| crypt-0 | is there a way to "lock" the kernel? | 00:32 |
| crypt-0 | as in make no hardware initialization possible without x password | 00:33 |
| sladen | urm. Don't load the kernel? | 00:34 |
| Keybuk | bryce, tjaalton: either of you around? | 00:35 |
| bryce | I am | 00:35 |
| Keybuk | bryce: how do I make nouveau work? | 00:35 |
| sladen | crypt-0: you will *require* the kernel have have initialised various bits of hardware in order for you to interact with the machine | 00:35 |
| bryce | Keybuk, first you must have the right hardware | 00:36 |
| Keybuk | bryce: I have an nvidia ;) | 00:36 |
| Keybuk | [ 7.994703] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Detected an NV50 generation card (0x086700a2) | 00:36 |
| Keybuk | [ 7.994981] [drm] Initialized nouveau 0.0.15 v2.6.31-rc6-539-ged53f9fcabd42f004 for 0000:01:00.0 on minor 0 | 00:36 |
| Keybuk | I have that in dmesg | 00:36 |
| pwnguin | lspci is smarter | 00:36 |
| bryce | Keybuk, seriously, in my testing I've found so many card-specific bugs that I ended up giving up trying to make it the default driver for us | 00:36 |
| Keybuk | bryce: I want to try something out with usplash which needs mode setting | 00:37 |
| pwnguin | Keybuk: right now I use xorg.conf | 00:37 |
| pwnguin | Driver "nouveau" | 00:37 |
| bryce | pwnguin, you using any special kernel? xorg-edgers? | 00:38 |
| Keybuk | X isn't smart enough to use nouveau automatically? | 00:38 |
| bryce | Keybuk, re: my comment about defaults on karmic | 00:38 |
| lifeless | its smart enough not to :P | 00:38 |
| Keybuk | bryce: even if you've loaded the nouveau module? | 00:38 |
| pwnguin | Keybuk: smart enough is the wrong phrase. crazy enough is the rgiht one | 00:38 |
| bryce | there was a patch floating around to make it try nouveau first if installed, then -nv if failed, but don't know the status on that | 00:38 |
| pwnguin | bryce: honestly, i switched to nvidia a few weeks ago to try out 3d accelleration of unr | 00:39 |
| bryce | Keybuk, in any case, that's a pretty minor issue, like pwnguin says it's sort of a box of chocolates at the moment | 00:39 |
| crypt-0 | sladen, right but if hald inst running "evil" hardware cant be intilizied right? | 00:39 |
| pwnguin | bryce: but until then it'd been running nouveau on karmic | 00:39 |
| Keybuk | bryce: ok | 00:39 |
| Keybuk | bryce: if I have nouveau modeset=1 will X burn in flames? | 00:39 |
| pwnguin | no clue | 00:40 |
| pwnguin | err | 00:40 |
| bryce | pwnguin, was this stock karmic or were you using one of our special ppas? | 00:40 |
| Keybuk | crypt-0: evil hardware will still be initialised, the kernel does the initialisation | 00:40 |
| pwnguin | bryce: i believe it's stock. might have what's his name's ppa | 00:40 |
| pwnguin | RAOF? | 00:40 |
| bryce | ah yes | 00:40 |
| bryce | Keybuk, I'd certainly wear flame retardant underware | 00:40 |
| pwnguin | anyways, it's at home and im not | 00:40 |
| bryce | I think it's nouveau.modeset=1 btw | 00:40 |
| Keybuk | right | 00:41 |
| pwnguin | its probably time for me to turn off the nouveau hilight on irssi | 00:41 |
| pwnguin | im not smart enough to handle it | 00:41 |
| bryce | apw also had a special kernel built for us with updated nouveau bits, although I think by now that's all in the stock kernel | 00:41 |
| crypt-0 | Keybuk, but wont it be "ignored" rendering it useless? | 00:42 |
| crypt-0 | Keybuk, how about killing dbus? | 00:42 |
| Keybuk | crypt-0: no, it will not be ignored | 00:42 |
| Keybuk | killing dbus won't help you either | 00:43 |
| Keybuk | frankly, you're being rude now | 00:43 |
| Keybuk | you asked us a question, we gave you answer | 00:43 |
| Keybuk | we're not lying to you | 00:43 |
| bryce | https://edge.launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/nouveau | 00:43 |
| bryce | that's it... but looks like it's probably way out of date now | 00:43 |
| crypt-0 | Keybuk, so there is no software solution then. Will have ti implement a hardware one | 00:44 |
| bryce | in any case, was buggy as hell when I tested it on a few cards, but the intro directions might be useful | 00:44 |
| Keybuk | crypt-0: there's already a hardware solution - it's the plug on the wall | 00:44 |
| crypt-0 | Keybuk, i know, but i like to run my pc 24.7 | 00:45 |
| Keybuk | crypt-0: your electricity supplier loves you | 00:45 |
| * walters likes the "kill dbus" solution to arbitrary problems | 00:45 | |
| crypt-0 | Keybuk, rmod <drivers_for_evil_hardware> | 00:46 |
| Keybuk | walters: "kill init" works well ;) | 00:46 |
| crypt-0 | Keybuk, correct me if im wrong, but blacklisting and unloading every kernel module for anything hot-swappable excapt for PS/2 should do it , but its a rater crude way of doing it | 00:47 |
| lifeless | crypt-0: if you don't trust the hardware don't use the machine. | 00:48 |
| Keybuk | crypt-0: PCI is hot swappable, as is USB | 00:48 |
| lifeless | crypt-0: its extremely simple. | 00:48 |
| Keybuk | in fact, Linux supports hot-swappable CPUs | 00:48 |
| Keybuk | so good luck with *that* | 00:48 |
| crypt-0 | no need for USB. my mobo doenst support PCI hot swap | 00:49 |
| Keybuk | crypt-0: you'd need a custom kernel though, ours has the USB host drivers built-in | 00:49 |
| crypt-0 | Keybuk, for example with a "live image hack tool" wouldnt you need to root the system? | 00:50 |
| crypt-0 | (no DMA for anything hot-swappable is already applied) | 00:51 |
| Keybuk | crypt-0: always assume that's possible | 00:51 |
| crypt-0 | Keybuk, but if your sys gets rooted, arent you owned anyway? | 00:51 |
| slangasek | LaserJock: this edubuntu karmic livefs build failure looks kinda edubuntu-specific, like it doesn't want to install the default kernel or something? | 00:56 |
| LaserJock | slangasek: for which build? | 00:57 |
| slangasek | LaserJock: edubuntu/karmic/amd64, email just came in | 00:58 |
| sladen | crypt-0: r00ted == 0wned. | 00:58 |
| slangasek | (not on the website yet) | 00:58 |
| LaserJock | slangasek: k | 00:59 |
| LaserJock | slangasek: I wouldn't think that'd be edubuntu-specific. Could it be that the build caught the archive at a bad time? | 00:59 |
| LaserJock | slangasek: we don't do anything with the kernel I don't think | 01:00 |
| slangasek | LaserJock: possible; let me double-check, then | 01:00 |
| crypt-0 | sladen, i know, there is no point to protecting against any attack if your rooted... | 01:01 |
| crypt-0 | unless the evil hardware is what roots you | 01:02 |
| sladen | crypt-0: unplug the evil hardware. It's not forcing you to use it | 01:03 |
| sladen | crypt-0: if you're running Free Software, you've got the source code and are free to analysis. If you're choosing to run on hardware you don't have source code for, then that's a risk you are *choosing* to take | 01:04 |
| slangasek | LaserJock: can't reproduce the problem locally, so I don't know | 01:05 |

| Amaranth | Keybuk: are you subscribed to 'boot' bugs just because people like to file boot issues there or do you actually use it? :) | 02:05 |
| Keybuk | Amaranth: because people like to file boot issues there | 02:06 |

| ion | Well, R isn’t even a word. “A” would be a better name. | 02:08 |
| cjwatson | I'm pretty sure I objected to R's namespacing on debian-devel in like 2002 or something | 02:10 |

| nixternal | cjwatson: I take it dirk objected to your naming? :) | 02:16 |
| geofft | is it just me or is packages.ubuntu.com down? (port 80 closed) | 02:16 |
| nixternal | he sure loves his R | 02:17 |
| nixternal | geofft: there are a few machines that are experiencing issues...I just ran across a bug report for p.u.c so it is known | 02:17 |
| geofft | okay, thanks | 02:17 |
| nixternal | keyserver is another one with issues | 02:17 |
| cjwatson | lifeless: the binary packages have r-cran-* namespacing; the source packages typically do not, hence 'boot' (binary: 'r-cran-boot') | 02:18 |
| slangasek | Keybuk: ... was I around when that decision was made? | 02:18 |
| cjwatson | there was some excuse about "boot" being the upstream name | 02:18 |
| Keybuk | slangasek: yup | 02:18 |
| Keybuk | I have a feeling it got noted down somewhere with a ? and the ? got lost, so we force load it | 02:18 |
| slangasek | Keybuk: well, I don't think I was party to the decision... | 02:18 |
| Keybuk | I was talking at you :) | 02:18 |

| exarkun | I seem to find the ?no-redirect thing for filing Ubuntu bugs offensive somehow. | 02:37 |
| === NC|G1 is now known as NCommander | ||
| exarkun | It doesn't help that it combines with the frequent timeout bug in a way which probably makes it even harder to report bugs against Ubuntu than whoever came up with the idea intended. | 02:38 |
| exarkun | timeout, hit back, get bounced back to the wiki page asking for people to not report bugs | 02:38 |
| exarkun | I almost gave up and didn't report this bug that I'm now going to report | 02:39 |
| ScottK | exarkun: #ubuntu-bugs is probably the best channel for feedback on that decision. | 02:39 |
| exarkun | I'm sure the average Ubuntu user wouldn't have gotten nearly this far | 02:39 |
| exarkun | ScottK: This is about barrier to participation. And as a demonstration, I'm afraid I'm going to have to decline to join #ubuntu-bugs and re-complain about it there. If no one here cares enough to pass on the message, then I guess the feedback will be lost and the community will suffer. Or maybe not even notice. Beats me. Anyway, this has already taken twice as long as I expected, I'm not going out of my way to find more work. | 02:41 |
| Keybuk | exarkun: we've been shouting about the message ourselves | 02:41 |
| ScottK | exarkun: It wasn't anyone here who made that decision. You are declining then to discuss it with the people that can do something about it. Not very effective. | 02:42 |

| lifeless | kirkland: replaces says 'when this package is installed take over files from that package' | 04:24 |
| lifeless | kirkland: so its necessary; sometimes its not sufficient,and in that case 'breaks' is wanted - not conflicts. conflicts is a last resort | 04:25 |
| kirkland | lifeless: thanks that makes more sense | 04:25 |
| kirkland | lifeless: replaces is confusing, because only a couple of files are replaced, not the whole package | 04:26 |
| lifeless | to determine if you need breaks:, consider 'if the old version of the other package is not upgraded will things still work' | 04:26 |
| lifeless | if the answer is no, you need to either breaks other << VERSION or depend other >= VERSION | 04:27 |
| lifeless | depending on why things wouldn't work, which is clearly situation specific | 04:27 |
| lifeless | if you cannot _unpack_ the packages at all at the same time, then you need conflicts: rather than breaks: | 04:27 |

| slangasek | Keybuk: why intel> ah, damn, so that's why I can't reproduce it at all here | 04:39 |
| NCommander | Keybuk, please disregard earlier noise on a possible mountall regression; it was an unfortunate red hearing | 04:41 |
| Keybuk | NCommander: yes, most mountall bugs that happen before it's even started are ;) | 04:42 |
| Keybuk | slangasek: right, you had mode setting | 04:42 |
| Keybuk | mode setting uses the bogl backend | 04:42 |
| Keybuk | which is fine | 04:42 |
| slangasek | right, just means that the time I spent trying to reproduce the problem was wasted | 04:43 |
| slangasek | (AIUI) | 04:43 |
| Keybuk | yeah we never saw corrupted text on intel | 04:43 |
| Keybuk | if you added intel.modeset=0 to your command-line you may well have done <g> | 04:44 |
| NCommander | Keybuk, *cough*. I'm not very familiar with mountall. So sorry for the noise ^ 2 | 04:44 |
| kirkland | Keybuk: what's the upstart debug variable i can set to get more verbose output in syslog? | 04:44 |

| slangasek | well, I also couldn't reproduce the 100% CPU usae | 04:44 |
| slangasek | usage | 04:44 |
| Keybuk | slangasek: that's a different issue to this one | 04:45 |
| slangasek | should that be reproducible on intel? | 04:45 |
| slangasek | oh | 04:45 |
| slangasek | what bug # are you working on? | 04:45 |

| dpm | pitti, hey good morning. I've tried to provide a fix for bug 449411 (extracting .desktop translations for onboard). Onboard is using the auto module from python-distutils-extra, which should autodetect .desktop.in files. However, it didn't seem to do it, and I had to explicitly list them in a setup.cfg file.

| dpm | pitti, yes, the changes are here -> http://launchpadlibrarian.net/33487525/make-desktop-files-translatable.debdiff | 08:44 |
| dpm | (I basically renamed the .desktop files to .desktop.in, marked them for translation and added them to setup.cfg) | 08:45 |
| wgrant | slangasek: No, they don't. I can easily enough fix that. | 08:46 |
| pitti | dpm: oh, there are two patches, one for renaming and one for adding the X-Ubuntu-Gettext-Domain one | 08:46 |
| pitti | dpm: (they could be just merged, but nevermind; just looked confusing) | 08:47 |
| liw | hm, LP isn't talking to me -- is this happening to anyone else? | 08:47 |
| dpm | pitti, ah, ok, I'll take that into account for the next time | 08:47 |
| slangasek | wgrant: would appreciate it, seeing as I noticed this 5 minutes /after/ sending out a mail to u-d-a with some overinflated numbers ;) | 08:47 |
| pitti | it's not automatically handled since the .desktop file is explicitly mentioned in data_files[]; if you drop it from there completely, does it work? | 08:48 |
| wgrant | slangasek: Oops. Sorry. | 08:48 |
| slangasek | hmm, here's a nice NM regression, if a network ever fails to connect then clicking on it again in the applet doesn't retry | 08:49 |
| dpm | pitti, I'll try. I've also noticed just now that the translations from the .ui files are not extracted, and it might be that's because of this as well (*.ui files are also mentioned as data_files) | 08:49 |
| slangasek | either that or my driver is really unhappy | 08:49 |

| dpm | pitti, ok, I've dropped the .desktop files from data_files[] in setup.py and I've also removed setup.cfg. That caused translations from the .desktop.in files to be extracted as expected, but the .desktop files don't seem to be then neither generated nor present in the package | 09:03 |

| andersin | Can someone please point me to the place in shutdown that removes the grub2 environment variable recordfail | 10:46 |
| andersin | The reason is that in karmic, whenever I come out of hibernate, grub does not have a timeout | 10:47 |
| andersin | it does when I come back from normal shutdown | 10:47 |
| cjwatson | andersin: there is no place on shutdown that removes that | 10:49 |
| andersin | really, then how is that ever removed? | 10:49 |
| cjwatson | andersin: however, there is a known bug that it is not removed on resume from hibernation | 10:49 |
| cjwatson | andersin: that bug is fixed in the upload I'm currently testing | 10:50 |
| cjwatson | andersin: it's removed on boot, not shutdown | 10:50 |
| cjwatson | the purpose of recordfail is to determine whether the last boot succeeded | 10:50 |
| andersin | ah, so once the boot is complete, it is removed? | 10:50 |

| walterl | hi | 11:13 |
| dpm | pitti, re: python-distutils-extra, sorry, I had some breakage after an update, got disconnected and sidetracked. The last thing I got from you was: | 11:39 |
| dpm | "dpm: I removed 20-add-i18n-setup-cfg.patch and desktop from data_files and applied your patch; 30-make-desktop-files-translatable.patch doesn't apply now" | 11:39 |
| pitti | dpm: right, I then just noticed that the patch was already applied | 11:40 |
| pitti | dpm: it's a bit weird, if I do ./setup.py install --root=/tmp/x, the desktop.in files get installed automagically | 11:40 |
| pitti | dpm: but with a .deb build they aren't | 11:40 |
| dpm | pitti, what I've done now is to simply drop the 20-* patch, replace it by this -> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d352a1a1e and rebuild the package | 11:40 |
| dpm | ah, ok | 11:40 |
| pitti | dpm: just keep the setup.cfg for now, seems there's a p-distutils-extra bug somewhere | 11:41 |
| dpm | pitti, ok, thanks a lot, I'll see if I can file a bug | 11:41 |
| dpm | pitti, any recommendations on how to extract the translations from the *.ui files? They don't seem to be processed automatically, and I'm not sure how I can specify the .ui files in setup.cfg | 11:42 |
| pitti | dpm: how do you mean? ui files (as in GTKBuidler) don't have translations | 11:43 |
| pitti | dpm: oh, you mean extract the translatable strings into the POT? | 11:43 |
| dpm | pitti, yes, they don't seem to be extracted | 11:44 |
| dpm | and merged into the POt | 11:44 |
| dpm | using the p-distutils-extra auto module | 11:44 |
| pitti | this is all just supposed to happen automatically.. | 11:44 |
| pitti | dpm: you can manually add it to po/POTFILES.in, of course, but then you need to add all the other source files as well | 11:46 |
| dpm | pitti, yes, that's what I thought, but it doesn't seem to happen with this package, and I couldn't find any other packages that use p-distutils-extra 'auto' instead of 'command', to use as an example | 11:46 |
| pitti | dpm: jockey and apport | 11:46 |
| dpm | pitti, ah, ok, I'll have a look at them | 11:46 |

| Notch-1 | there is not something like "WebDAV on 192.168..."... like for ftp, ftps, dav, davs, etc ? in other words: is the SHARENAME part fixed? | 14:22 |
| Keybuk | bryce_: around? | 14:22 |
| ttx | Notch-1: no, it's the share name, so it's not fixed. | 14:22 |
| Notch-1 | chrisccoulson: because with gnome is very difficult to use smb://192.... so i'm replacing it with "~/.gvfs/SOMETHING on 192..." | 14:23 |
| chrisccoulson | why is it difficult to use smb://? | 14:23 |
| chrisccoulson | just do it all through GIO | 14:23 |
| Notch-1 | ttx: ah well, so i can't get my utility working with samba, only the others protocol... | 14:23 |
| chrisccoulson | not everyone uses gvfs-fuse... | 14:23 |
| hyperair | use the gfile functions | 14:24 |
| hyperair | it'll automatically convert | 14:24 |

| hyperair | er gio_whatever | 14:26 |

| hyperair | lemme dig it up | 14:26 |
| chrisccoulson | Notch-1 - the GIO reference is here: http://library.gnome.org/devel/gio/stable/ | 14:27 |

| mvo | free: there a few dup on various package with this error, I have no idea yet what causes it | 16:06 |
| free | mvo: you mean various packages are failing with this error? | 16:07 |
| james_w | mvo: are these from upgrades with aptdaemon do you know? | 16:07 |
| mvo | james_w: not sure, that was my first instinct, but there is one kpackagekit as well | 16:08 |
| mvo | free: yes, including eglibc | 16:08 |
| james_w | that would still fit I guess | 16:08 |
| free | mvo: the only thing that comes to my mind is a "usermod -g landscape landscape" in landscape-common.postinst, which makes the script write a "usermod: no changes" to stdout | 16:09 |
| mvo | but not in a reproducable way | 16:09 |
| mvo | james_w: my gut feeling is that it is releated to aptdaemon | 16:09 |
| james_w | I've seen that error a couple of times | 16:09 |
| free | mvo: it would probably better to "> /dev/null 2>&1"-it | 16:09 |
| james_w | I put it down to the frontend going away | 16:09 |
| james_w | as X went away | 16:10 |
| mvo | james_w: oh? you saw it with PK? or aptdaemon? or both? | 16:10 |
| james_w | aptdaemon | 16:10 |
| mvo | cool, any way to reproduce? ctrl-alt-backspace while it is running? | 16:11 |
| james_w | I had X die I think | 16:11 |
| james_w | so that might work | 16:11 |
| james_w | however, I'm not sure why that would break a pipe to dpkg's stdout? | 16:12 |
| james_w | I guess the X session going kills D-Bus, which kills aptd? | 16:12 |
| james_w | no, it's on the system bus isn't it? | 16:12 |

| Keybuk | siretart``: you might have to pull --overwrite | 16:16 |
| siretart`` | I notice that you preferred to overwrite my commit over adding an mkdir -p to debian/rules :-/ | 16:17 |
| mvo | james_w: its on the system bus - the only thing I can think of is that its a bug in aptdaemon. it feed stdout back and forth over the bus for the terminal | 16:18 |
| james_w | mvo: that could well do it then | 16:18 |
| siretart`` | regarding the cryptsetup branch, it is royally messed up anyway. we should probably just replace it with launchpad's auto imports | 16:18 |
| mvo | james_w: I have a look | 16:19 |

| james_w | it's not suspended | 16:26 |
| james_w | and it is quick :-) | 16:26 |

| mathiaz | is there a reason why avahi would change the existing ip address configuration when started? | 17:58 |
| sladen | mathiaz: it fires up a link-local address and attaches to that | 17:59 |
| mathiaz | I've got a system that uses dhclient. Then I installed eucalyptus-cloud (which starts avahi) - the IP address of the system has changed to 169.254.169.254 | 17:59 |
| mathiaz | the old address (10.153.108.210) is still pingable though | 18:00 |
| mathiaz | but ifconfig eth0 doesn't list the old address anymore | 18:00 |
| hyperair | shouldn't it be eth0:avahi having the link-local address? | 18:01 |
| hyperair | speaking of which network-manager fails to communicate with avahi, iirc | 18:02 |
| hyperair | avahi will get an address, then nm will timeout and complain that ip config failed or something | 18:02 |
| hyperair | it can get rather annoying | 18:02 |
| mathiaz | hyperair: the system doesn't use nm | 18:02 |
| hyperair | hmm | 18:02 |
| hyperair | so what does ifconfig say? | 18:02 |
| sladen | mathiaz: can you pastebin ifconfig -a | 18:03 |
| mathiaz | sladen: http://paste.ubuntu.com/293272/ | 18:03 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: hey - do you remember the bug about detecting the wrong ip address for the CC (ie 169.254.169.254) we saw last week | 18:06 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: has this been fixed? | 18:06 |
| kirkland | mathiaz: it's been hacked around | 18:07 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: right - hacked around | 18:07 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: see above - I may have find another clue | 18:07 |
| kirkland | mathiaz: my CLC still occasionally thinks its ip address is 169.254x2 | 18:07 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: I've installed eucalyptus-cloud and now eth0 has 169.254.169.254 | 18:08 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: where it used to have 10.153.X.Y | 18:08 |

| kees | chrisccoulson: which bug # is the new crash? | 18:19 |
| chrisccoulson | i've just triggered the bug anyway | 18:20 |
| chrisccoulson | the crash is bug 451345 | 18:20 |

| cr3 | pitti: man, you've had a lot on your shoulders this release: policy kit and hal seem to have been big ones | 18:20 |
| seb128 | chrisccoulson, kees: the log has | 18:21 |
| seb128 | "The program 'gnome-screensaver' received an X Window System error. | 18:21 |
| seb128 | This probably reflects a bug in the program. | 18:21 |

| pitti | cr3: that was quite a large chunk indeed, but it was fun, too; lots of nice upstream development for me :) | 18:21 |
| kees | seb128: yeah, but they didn't have dbgsym installed, so they couldn't catch the error to get a backtrace | 18:21 |
| cr3 | pitti: oh nice! always feels good to give back | 18:21 |
| chrisccoulson | right, so they're the same bug then | 18:22 |
| kees | chrisccoulson: while I certainly want that to be true -- how do you know? does the helper crashing do this? | 18:22 |
| chrisccoulson | i need to try and see if i can get a better backtrace then | 18:23 |
| pitti | cr3: yeah, I was able to port the entire gvfs from hal to DK, and write the udev bits for hotkey management; for the other bits I mainly coordinated and gave some suggestions | 18:23 |
| pitti | cr3: with the benefit that I can now pretty much ignore all those 500 hal bug reports :-P | 18:23 |
| pitti | cr3: (which was actually the entire purpose of the show, to get rid of this bug and race condition laden monster) | 18:23 |

| seb128 | ups | 18:24 |
| seb128 | does -> goes | 18:24 |
| seb128 | so maybe the screensaver hack they use lead to a crash | 18:24 |
| kees | seb128: right, that's the expected behavior. they're saying it goes to the desktop. | 18:24 |
| seb128 | seems gnome-screensaver is quite crashing when using nvidia binary drivers and 3d screeensavers | 18:24 |
| kees | seb128: having a hack crash shouldn't take out the whole screensaver. | 18:25 |
| seb128 | good point | 18:25 |
| pitti | ScottK: oh, so karmic's emacs is supposed to be 22? I think I installed it for my wife at beta, and she ended up with 23 | 18:25 |
| seb128 | let's wait for chrisccoulson to get a debug stacktrace | 18:25 |
| * kees nods | 18:25 | |
| seb128 | chrisccoulson, what videocard do you use? | 18:25 |
| kees | I will try to create a local crashing hack... | 18:25 |
| ScottK | pitti: If you want the supported one, 22 is what you want. | 18:25 |
| pitti | cr3: yes, indeed! and since users don't really see hal, we can actually do it :) | 18:25 |
| pitti | ScottK: hm, if emacs23 doesn't build "emacs" any more, how can we make sure that the old 22 "emacs" package becomes current again? | 18:26 |
| seb128 | chrisccoulson, you crash was a gnome-screensaver-gl-helper one, what would be useful is a gnome-screensaver stracktrace | 18:26 |
| ScottK | pitti: I think slangasek had some kind of black magic for this. | 18:27 |
| pitti | ScottK: I'm not entirely sure whether LP will like us when we rebuild emacs22 with the binary having a lower version number than the previous one | 18:27 |
| pitti | ScottK: ok; so it's been discussed already then? fine | 18:27 |
| slangasek | pitti: it won't; we have to do stupid version tricks | 18:27 |
| pitti | slangasek: ok, so binary specific version number then | 18:27 |
| chrisccoulson | seb128 - i'm trying to get one but it doesn't happen consistently here | 18:27 |
| slangasek | pitti: yep | 18:28 |

| bryce_ | cjwatson, the DX team wanted to test the norootbg patch to see if it'd help with what they were doing. I never heard back from them on how their testing turned out or if they needed it. So at this point I do not have plans to put it in. | 18:49 |
| chrisccoulson | it's calling XFreePixmap with an invalid pixmap somewhere | 18:49 |
| chrisccoulson | hence the BadDrawable error | 18:49 |
| seb128 | chrisccoulson, kees: I got one too, http://paste.ubuntu.com/293308/ | 18:49 |
| seb128 | but I lack libx11 debug symbols | 18:49 |
| kees | are those different? chrisccoulson's was a crash through "shake dialog" | 18:51 |
| kees | seb128's was due to a keypress? | 18:51 |
| chrisccoulson | was it with --sync? | 18:52 |
| seb128 | new one | 18:53 |
| seb128 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/293308/ | 18:53 |
| seb128 | it's by running "gnome-screensaver --sync --no-daemon" | 18:53 |
| seb128 | and attaching gdb from an another session | 18:53 |
| seb128 | and breaking on gdk_x_error | 18:53 |
| chrisccoulson | hmmm, they look different | 18:53 |
| seb128 | then I do a serie of wrong passwords | 18:53 |
| seb128 | yes, the first one was not a crash | 18:53 |
| seb128 | on the second one I got the "The error was 'BadDrawable (invalid Pixmap or Window parameter)'." | 18:53 |
| seb128 | doh | 18:54 |
| seb128 | the new one is http://paste.ubuntu.com/293311/ | 18:54 |
| seb128 | sorry wrong url before | 18:54 |
| seb128 | chrisccoulson, kees: ^ that's the crash one | 18:54 |
| chrisccoulson | that's better :) | 18:55 |
| chrisccoulson | XFreePixmap is what throws the error | 18:55 |
| kees | ok, that one might be the same, some unresolved functions, but the path looks similar | 18:55 |
| seb128 | right | 18:58 |
| seb128 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/293316/ | 18:58 |
| seb128 | that one is a debug one | 18:58 |
| seb128 | seems similar to chrisccoulson's one now | 18:58 |
| seb128 | the bug is quite easy to trigger indeed | 18:58 |
| chrisccoulson | i found it quite hard to trigger :/ | 18:58 |
| kees | hmpf, I hit it once now and not yet since then. :( | 18:59 |
| chrisccoulson | it takes a lot of tries before i trigger it | 18:59 |
| seb128 | I set the screensaver hack on random hack there | 18:59 |
| seb128 | and I do enter, wait a second, enter, wait a second, enter, etc | 18:59 |
| seb128 | it takes 6 to 8 tries to get it | 18:59 |
| seb128 | I sometime to esc between to display the screensaver and try again though | 18:59 |
| seb128 | not sure if that makes a difference | 18:59 |
| kees | the 5th failure shuts down the password prompt dialog, at which point g-ss will sometimes crash | 19:00 |
| kees | I can't reproduce it under gdb | 19:00 |
| seb128 | I don't always get it on the 5th try I think, but I'm not sure | 19:00 |
| seb128 | kees, run gnome-screensaver --sync --no-daemon and attach gdb from an another vt | 19:01 |
| seb128 | then break on gdk_x_error? | 19:01 |
| kees | oh, good idea | 19:01 |
| seb128 | that's what I do there | 19:01 |
| seb128 | because otherwise I had no way to go back to gdb to type "bt" there | 19:01 |
| seb128 | since the screensaver was frozen on the session | 19:01 |

| bryce_ | cjwatson, ideally for something like this I'd like to see some good coverage to make sure we're not improving one driver at the expense of others, it's getting kind of late to make a decision on it though | 19:36 |
| cjwatson | is it all that driver-specific? aside from KMS vs. non-KMS | 19:37 |
| cjwatson | my plan was to only pass that option if KMS is up; we can't do very much about the non-KMS usplash->xsplash transition anyway | 19:37 |
| bryce_ | cjwatson, well, mainly I'm thinking of an earlier patch that affected how root background was handled, which provided a nice solid performance boost on -fglrx, but after we put it in we found it caused nasty window corruption issues for kde users on a few other video drivers | 19:38 |
| bryce_ | I guess if it's limited to only KMS, that narrows it to one driver effectively (at least for Karmic) so that'd reduce the risk | 19:38 |
| bryce_ | still worth testing at least with ati KMS; folks are starting to use that now even though it's not the default | 19:39 |
| cjwatson | mm, right | 19:39 |
| cjwatson | if it isn't obvious, what I'm trying to do is leave the usplash logo on-screen until xsplash gets around to replacing it | 19:39 |
| bryce_ | right | 19:39 |
| cjwatson | incidentally when testing this sort of thing I REALLY want network-manager to get a command-line interface that we install by default | 19:39 |
| bryce_ | AGREED | 19:40 |

| mathiaz | kirkland: hey - doing an UEC install - run into this problem: http://paste.ubuntu.com/293351/ | 19:40 |
| cjwatson | having no working X and being unable to apt-get install <last version of stuff that worked> is no fun | 19:40 |
| bryce_ | I suppose if I were less lazy I'd figure out a workaround | 19:40 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: have you seen this with the current packages? | 19:40 |
| bryce_ | cjwatson, yuppers | 19:40 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: note that this is not an ISO install | 19:40 |
| cjwatson | there are a couple of command-line interfaces floating around the internet, but of course I can't download them right now | 19:40 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: just a package install on a base system | 19:40 |
| kirkland | mathiaz: i've never seen that on | 19:40 |
| cjwatson | there was a python one which I contemplated just typing in interactively, but (a) it looked a bit hatstand and (b) it didn't actually support activating connections | 19:42 |
| bryce_ | cjwatson, fwiw I recall noticing asac had a wireless-with-no-x-running setup on his laptop once when I was helping him with an X problem. I've neglected to inquire what that was, but maybe he knows a good trick | 19:43 |
| cjwatson | it may depend on the wireless driver | 19:44 |
| cjwatson | some of them, you can just dhclient | 19:44 |
| bryce_ | ah could be | 19:44 |
| cjwatson | in fact I'm sure I used to be able to do mine that way, or maybe I had /e/n/i configured | 19:44 |

| slangasek | kees: yes; the eval isn't the cause of that error | 22:04 |
| slangasek | the 'update' needs to be moved to the end of the commandline, after the -o | 22:04 |
| kees | hrm | 22:04 |
| kees | + apt-get -y update -o APT::Update::Auth-Failure::=cp /usr/share/apt/apt-auth-failure.note /var/lib/update-notifier/user.d/ | 22:04 |
| kees | Ign file: karmic/main Translation-en_US | 22:04 |
| kees | I didn't need that... | 22:05 |
| slangasek | kees: ah, because you set VERBOSE | 22:05 |
| slangasek | if it's not set, the command is 'apt-get -qq -y update -o ...', which fails for some reason | 22:05 |
| slangasek | heh, the apt-get manpage says never to use '-qq update', and that '-qq -y' is redundant :P | 22:06 |
| kees | with verbose unset, it runs correctly with eval removed... | 22:06 |
| kees | oh, no, my bad | 22:06 |
| kees | those evals are still wrong... | 22:07 |
| slangasek | the evals are wrong, yes | 22:07 |
| slangasek | I don't know what possessed someone to put those there | 22:07 |
| kees | + apt-get -qq -y -o 'APT::Update::Auth-Failure::=cp /usr/share/apt/apt-auth-failure.note /var/lib/update-notifier/user.d/' update '2>/dev/null' | 22:08 |
| kees | E: The update command takes no arguments | 22:09 |
| kees | hrm | 22:09 |
| kees | oh, heh, the redirection is getting escaped. ;) | 22:09 |
| kees | that's what the eval is for? madness | 22:10 |
| slangasek | oh, I suppose it is | 22:10 |
| slangasek | nice :) | 22:10 |
| slangasek | so, ok, the eval isn't broken, just CRAAAAAZZY | 22:10 |
| kees | right, so actually the originally suggested patch is more correct... | 22:11 |

| chrisccoulson | kees - you had a look at this screensaver issue at all? | 22:34 |
| kees | chrisccoulson: got side-tracked, sorry | 22:35 |
| chrisccoulson | no worries ;) | 22:35 |
| chrisccoulson | i have my suspicions what might be triggering it, but i'm having a hard time trying to figure out how to prove it | 22:37 |
| kees | chrisccoulson: seems like the "shake" animation somehow? | 22:40 |
| chrisccoulson | yeah, on each shake iteration, some events are queued on the main loop to realign and redraw the window contents. i suspect what might be happening is that the lock dialog disappears whilst the events are being dispatched (when gnome-screensaver-dialog exits) | 22:41 |
| === YDdraigGoch is now known as Richie | ||
| chrisccoulson | i'm going to rebuild gnome-screensaver with some extra debug info in, to give me a better idea what order the different events get dispatched in | 22:42 |
| chrisccoulson | just to see if there is a difference between crashing/not crashing | 22:42 |
| kees | chrisccoulson: I also noticed that sometimes while validating, the dialog with grey out the "unlock" button and highlight "cancel" for a moment before shaking. other times, the whole dialog would go grey before the shake. | 22:43 |
| chrisccoulson | yeah, i'm not too sure why that would be | 22:44 |
| mdke | pitti: I think probably for the fix to bug 441401 to become available for ubuntu-docs, the langpacks need to be rebuilt? Am I right? The bug is still appearing with ubuntu-docs 9.10.10 which has now been published (ie the symlink is still broken) | 22:47 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 441401 in ubuntu-docs "Symlink not working with Karmic translations" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/441401 | 22:47 |
| * chrisccoulson is thinking xtrace is going to come in handy here for me | 22:47 | |
| mdke | pitti: if I'm right, then I'll just wait for the next langpacks. If not I'll do some more digging :) | 22:48 |
| slangasek | mdke: why is ubuntu-docs suddenly so much bigger? | 22:52 |
| slangasek | it looks like the language split has been dropped? | 22:52 |
| chrisccoulson | kees - the X call which generates the error is actually CreatePixmap (as shown in my xtrace log here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/293501/ ) | 22:56 |
| chrisccoulson | the invalid drawable is 0x05400020, which my log shows was destroyed earlier on | 22:56 |
| chrisccoulson | which sort-of backs up my suspicion | 22:56 |
| chrisccoulson | so the fix is probably for gnome-screensaver-dialog to not exit on its own accord after 5 failed auth attempts, but rather wait for gnome-screensaver to kill it after it has done the shake animation | 22:57 |
| kees | chrisccoulson: yeah | 22:58 |
| chrisccoulson | i hope that's it anyway | 22:58 |
| asac | bryce_: connections marked as automatically connect + available to all users should work without X | 22:59 |
| bryce_ | asac, ah 'available to all users'... hadn't seen that option, I'll look for it | 23:02 |
| ScottK | lamont: What's the status on maven? ETOOHARD? | 23:14 |
| slangasek | kees: are you uploading the 449535 fix, then? | 23:26 |
| kees | slangasek: yeah | 23:26 |
| slangasek | ok | 23:26 |
| kees | slangasek: er, no, after looking at the bzr tree, I'd like mvo to do it -- there are a number of changes pending | 23:29 |
| slangasek | ok | 23:29 |
| slangasek | seems the bug has been there long enough that one more day won't make much difference | 23:29 |
| * kees nods | 23:30 | |
| slangasek | mdke, pitti: is the "ubuntu-docs has ballooned" bug known to be linked to bug #441401, or is it a new issue? | 23:34 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 441401 in ubuntu-docs "Symlink not working with Karmic translations" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/441401 | 23:34 |
| lamont | ScottK: EPOSTKARMIC I expect - it's below a few other much more critical activities | 23:43 |
| * lamont afk | 23:46 | |
| ScottK | lamont: OK. Would you please comment in the relevant bugs then. | 23:46 |
| ScottK | slangasek: ^^^ I think we need to remove maven2 then, since it's currently, as I understand it broken. | 23:46 |
| lamont | gar. once I read the ticket to see where doko got to with his trying to get something installable for me to use for bootstrapping | 23:47 |
| ScottK | OK. | 23:47 |
