[10:31] <mpt> evand, do you know of any reason that Firefox would fail to launch if you click either of the hyperlinks in the slideshow while running in an installer-only session (i.e. no gnome-panel etc)?
[10:39] <evand> mpt: I'm not sure why that would be the case.  All ubiquity does is call sensible-browser http://... as the regular user.
[10:40]  * evand digs
[10:42] <davmor2> evand: daft question but during the install only option is there a default browser?
[10:43] <evand> yes
[10:46] <davmor2> evand: I'm just wondering if there is a gui browser available if not it might be using w3m in vt
[10:47] <davmor2> just thinking out loud
[10:47] <mpt> evand, johnlea told me that he got a bunch of error messages when doing it yesterday. Unfortunately I wasn't there and he didn't report a bug.
[10:52] <mpt> (To be fair, I guess it's rather difficult to report a bug in that situation.)
[10:55] <evand> I think I've found the problem - the privilege dropping appears to be failing and firefox is running as root
[10:55] <evand> on it
[11:16] <grrrreg> hellp
[11:16] <grrrreg> (= hello + help)
[11:16] <grrrreg> I've got two big problems when preseeding Karmic's installation on a dmraid server
[11:17] <grrrreg> - I have to manually run dmraid -ay even if I have "d-i disk-detect/activate_dmraid boolean true"
[11:18] <grrrreg> - grub-installer uses grub-pc by default, which does not work with dmraid setups
[11:19] <grrrreg> I can handle the first problem, but the second one fails the install
[11:19] <grrrreg> is there a d-i line to choose between grub and grub-pc ?
[11:40] <evand> grrrreg: set grub-installer/grub2_instead_of_grub_legacy to false.
[11:58] <grrrreg> thank you so much evand
[11:58] <evand> sure thing
[11:59] <grrrreg> more generaly, what's the best way to know all the debconf "conf" for a software ?
[12:06] <evand> there really isn't, short of looking through all the templates files in the source, or looking at /var/cache/debconf/{config,templates}.dat
[12:06] <evand> the templates file being in the debian/ directory in the source tree.
[12:10] <grrrreg> thanks, I'm svn'ing d-i
[12:10] <grrrreg> I'll check it out
[14:42] <mozmck> I'm trying to create a custom livecd based on the karmic iso using the instructions here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization
[14:42] <mozmck> I need to install a different kernel and the instructions are a little unclear to me.
[14:43] <mozmck> Can I just install the kernel .deb file I made?
[14:43] <mozmck> or is there a better place to ask this?
[15:41] <CIA-4> ubiquity: evand * r3631 lucid/ (bin/ubiquity-dm debian/changelog):
[15:41] <CIA-4> ubiquity: Set SUDO_UID and SUDO_GID in ubiquity-dm so ubiquity knows what user
[15:41] <CIA-4> ubiquity: to drop privileges to (LP: #422254).
[23:12] <xivulon> evand on 468589, anything we can do to speed it up?
