Riddellmarkey: hmm, so you have no USB at all or is it intermitent?14:32
* ScottK can attest to intermittent.14:33
markeyRiddell: it works randomly. one example: after reboot, my keyboard always doesn't work. I run around the desk, plug it in/out 6 times14:33
markeythen it works14:33
markeysame with other devices14:33
markeysome don't work at all14:33
markeyand the keyboard thing is grave14:33
markeyI mean, without keyboard...14:33
RiddellScottK: stop showing up my typos :)14:33
ScottKRiddell: Actually I didn't even notice your typo until you mentioned it.14:34
ScottKI do have trouble with USB stuff not always showing up.14:34
markeyyeah, many people have trouble with that14:35
markeysebas said it too, and it happens with Mamarok external HDD as well (on her box)14:35
markeythe more devices you connect, the worse it gets (I guess)14:35
markeynot sure14:35
Riddellit's not clear where the fix is that keybuk talks about but it seems to be in gdm.  nothing in -updates though for gdm14:36
RiddellI wonder if this is related to the "kdm needs equivalent patches to gdm" work item that got assigned to me without anyone telling me or apparantly anyone knowing what it involves14:39
Riddelltime to e-mail Keybuk I think14:39
macobahaha14:39
macowhat a silly work item14:39
macooh wait "equivalent"14:39
macothat means "Riddell, go re-write these in a kdm-compatible way"?14:40
markeyRiddell: could be an Udev bug, I guess?14:40
penguin42I'm trying lucid kubuntu in a kvm and if I boot into the installer (or login) I get a blank black screen with notifications about new shortcuts registered - and that's it - any way to get past that?14:41
Riddellpenguin42: sounds like plasma-desktop isn't getting started14:42
Riddellor is this a netbook install?14:42
penguin42no, normal desktop iso14:43
penguin42I can get a console and tell me what to check is running14:43
penguin42there appear to be multiple instances of plasma-desktop running according to a xlsclients14:44
Riddellpenguin42: alt-f2  plasma-desktop may well fix it14:44
penguin42alt-f2 doesn't get me anything14:44
Riddellthat's a hassle14:47
Riddellwell you can start it from your console?14:48
Riddellexport DISPLAY=:0  if the console isn't within X14:48
penguin42I can see a kdeinit4: plasma-desktop [kdeinit] in a ps14:48
Riddellcan you start anything on the X server?  what about xlogo?14:50
Riddellnixternal: did you see Dhillon's e-mail on kde release-team mailing list?  going from documentation to coding on kdelibs is quite a jump14:51
penguin42Riddell: Not seeing the xlogo, but the odd thing is that I can see the kglobalaccel notification dialogs14:52
penguin42if I stop xdm, start an X server and then start xterm I see it14:54
penguin42and if I start a plasma-desktop from that xterm I apparently get one14:55
Riddellhmm, i'm out of ideas14:57
penguin42and I seem to have a desktop and kwin running14:57
penguin42any idea which package I should report against?15:00
Riddellkdm?15:00
penguin42I guess so - but it's out of that already isn't it?15:06
Riddellpenguin42: yeah, so could be X or plymouth or goodness knows what15:08
penguin42I'l lfile it against ubiquity since that seems to be what is suggested for installing issues15:08
freinhardneed a sponsor (or two ;) ) http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/p/ctemplate15:10
nixternalRiddell: I needed some comic relief this morning, thanks :)15:10
nixternalnot so much coding, but coordinating15:11
crimsunhmm15:11
Riddellfreinhard: looking15:12
penguin42ah, it works in safe graphics15:13
penguin42hmm, that's exaggerating it - I get most of a desktop15:14
penguin42and then it hangs solid15:17
crimsunScottK: / markey: any chance you could reproduce the intermittent nature of the symptom with a daily-live of Ubuntu?15:19
markeylive cd?15:19
markeythat would need rebooting, currently a bit difficult15:19
markeybut could try tonight15:19
markeygot url?15:20
crimsunmarkey: hmm, looks like 20100113 is the latest spun anyhow, http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/15:20
markeythanks, I will try that later15:21
Riddellalpha 2 probably best to try15:21
Riddellkubuntu.org has the links15:21
markeyok15:21
* markey wgets15:21
crimsunif it's indeed udev, udevadm monitor --property > ~/udevadm-monitor.log   is nice, too15:22
markeycrimsun: I did one create a file with "lshal" output. is that useful in any way?15:26
markeystill got it on my server15:26
markeyonce*15:26
markey(it's quite long though)15:26
freinhardwho could know about changes to the v4l/dvb subsystem in the lates karmic kernel update?15:26
_Groo_hi/2 all15:29
freinhardmade /dev/dvb/adapter0/* move to /dev/dvb0.* and untill you create symlinks matching the old path kaffeine won't work. i guess that's, if they ever find out what's suddenly wrong, not reasonable to average users?15:29
_Groo_whos responsible for the libdirac change of name?15:29
_Groo_latest libdirac breaks gstream bad plugins15:30
Riddellsince we don't use gstreamer, not us15:30
crimsunmarkey: I suppose that "ubuntu-bug udev" would generate the proper reports15:31
Riddellfreinhard: advocated, one optional suggestion15:32
markeycrimsun: should I run that?15:32
_Groo_Riddell: hey Riddell, well it brakes other things like mplayer and mplayer-mt, but i can overcome those15:32
_Groo_Riddell: also i did koffice 2.1.1, will be in my ppa real soon (tm)15:32
Riddell_Groo_: you know how to package, fixes welcome15:32
freinhardRiddell: that one goes to /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/ right?15:33
_Groo_Riddell: yeah, its mostly working, im just checking with debian experimental, ill prob announce it here when its ready15:33
crimsunmarkey: wouldn't hurt15:33
_Groo_ill open a bug for libdirac... i was in the process of making newer mplayer and mplayer-mt packages anyway15:35
JontheEchidnacould a core-dev confirm the karmic task for bug 382161?15:35
ubottuLaunchpad bug 382161 in plasma-widget-networkmanagement "NetworkManager doesn't use manual set DNS although there's an option for that" [Medium,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/38216115:35
markeycrimsun: args, how can I pipe that output into a file? "view" starts less15:38
markeydunno how to copy all that (several pages)15:38
markeyah15:38
markey"Keep Report"15:38
markeythat one maybe15:38
markeygot it15:38
RiddellJontheEchidna: done15:39
markeycrimsun: http://mark.kollide.net/ubuntu-bug-udev-output.txt15:40
freinharddoes a new kernel ship new udev rules?16:04
RiddellI think a new udev ships new udev rules16:05
freinhardok so that /dev/dvb0.* thing is defenitely a kernel issue.16:08
freinhardRiddell: uploaded ctemplates once again. moved the .el file to /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/16:31
Riddellfreinhard: is that all which needs done, can emacs pick it up like that?16:32
freinhardRiddell: i hope so, never used emacs and i guess i never will16:32
freinhardRiddell: matlab uses emacs keyboard layout by default on linux, made me feel like i'm new to computers and never got used to it ;)16:34
markeycrimsun: could you spot anything interesting in the output I sent?16:52
freinhardi just went over to #emacs for that .el file, this is so insane.17:00
freinhardgolden rule: never ask questions.17:00
Riddellfreinhard: it probably needs dh_installemacsen17:03
Riddellfreinhard: I did say it was optional :)17:04
freinhardRiddell: i guess i'll stick with that ;)17:06

xteejxHey guys, I am a triager usually working in Ubuntu bugs, but have come across some old Kubuntu bugs. My question is - what are we doing with KDE bugs pre KDE4, as I know these are unsupported by the KDE Team?18:53
dhillon-v10xteejx, that depends because I mostly do KDE docs. bugs and they are still valid because the docs. still haven't been updated18:55
xteejxOK, it was in particular bug 181300 I was wondering about, as it's to do with CJK input with scim, I would assume this may well have been fixed in KDE418:56
ubottuLaunchpad bug 181300 in unidistro-kde-desktop "Kubuntu Indian & East Asian language display and input not as good as Ubuntu" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/18130018:56
xteejxI just don't know if I should be telling them to try Karmic on LiveCD and see if it's fixed or trying to fix something like that in that version, since I know upstream won't bother with it.18:57
dhillon-v10xteejx, yah that's a good idea, tell them to try the karmic live cd and if you have a cd yourself then you can go ahead and check it :) and change the status to needs-info18:58
dhillon-v10xteejx, oh I mean incomplete18:59
xteejxdhillon-v10: So, usual kinda procedure on the triaging side then? That's good to hear! I'm suspecting this probably was fixed.18:59
xteejxI know what you meant :)18:59
dhillon-v10xteejx, yah too much of bugzilla stuff :)18:59
xteejxhehe :)18:59
RiddellI'd have a presumption for closing most KDE 3 bits like that19:00
xteejxThanks for the info, much appreciated, and don't be surprised if you start seeing more of me, I'll try not to avoid the KDE bugs hehe19:00
xteejxRiddell: I thought so19:00
Riddellalso we want to only track distro bugs in the distro tracker, and that's an upstream issue mostly19:00
xteejxDistro tracker??19:01
Riddellby which I mean launchpad, the bug tracker for this distro19:01
xteejxOhh, of course, sorry am half asleep is only 7pm!19:02
xteejxThanks for the help guys, I'm off, keep up the good work!! :D19:03
markeyRiddell: CMake 2.8 is nice :)19:16
markeye.g. it reports some errors that 2.6 simply ignored19:16
markeythat is useful19:16
Riddellhappy to have helped you in at least one way19:17
sheytanHi guys ;)20:01
sheytanI can't install nvidia drivers with jockey in lucid aplha 2. Is there other way to do this?20:02
ulysses__konsole+aptitude :)20:06
sheytanOk, and what packages should i install?20:06
ulysses__nvidia-glx-???20:07
QuintasanHi20:09
Riddellhmm, I zoomed out of a plasma activity and now I can't work out how to zoom back in20:11
macoshould be a zoom button under it20:11
macothough whether you zoom into that activity or a different one is a bit of toss-up, IME20:12
Riddellnope20:12
sheytanRiddell if not, then press control + mouse scroll20:12
_Groo_Riddell: plasma is still buggy in that regard... better is to kquitapp plasma-desktop and see if it helps20:12
RiddellI have no mouse scroll20:12
_Groo_Riddell: really?20:13
_Groo_*hit... this gstreamer libdirac bug brake a lot of stuff, including k9copy :P20:15
_Groo_not good20:15
_Groo_how the core devs allowed this is beyond me20:16
_Groo_Riddell: scott whats the proper channel to bug the core devs? i already opened a bug in launchpad20:16
macoer, well Riddell himself is one20:17
macothere are at least 2 others off the top of my head in here20:17
_Groo_he his? oO oh... eheheh... hes screwed now :D20:19
* _Groo_ looks for riddell20:19
Riddellit depends what the issue is, if it's something that a bug isn't sufficient for ubuntu-devel mailing list is the way20:19
_Groo_guys is this normal? : [ 1079.388730] type=1503 audit(1263759275.659:20):  operation="open" pid=5040 parent=5038 profile="/usr/sbin/mysqld-akonadi" requested_mask="::r" denied_mask="::r" fsuid=1000 ouid=0 name="/sys/devices/system/cpu/"20:19
_Groo_aparently akonadi is trying to do something apparmor disapproves20:20
Riddellcouldn't honestly say, although it could explain some bugs people have with akonadi20:21
ScottK_Groo_: jdstrand is the best person to ask in #ubuntu-hardened.20:24
_Groo_ScottK: k, gonna talk to him20:25
_Groo_can you guys confirm this anyway?20:25
Riddell_Groo_: dunno how do you recreate it?20:27
_Groo_Riddell: just install gstreamer bad plugins and try to install the libdirac libs.. its suposed to break20:27
_Groo_prob bad plugins wont install20:28
Riddell_Groo_: the akonadi problem20:28
_Groo_Riddell: oh, well it should popup naturally in dmesg20:29
ScottKRiddell: Compared to what we released Karmic with, our current Lucid libqt4-dev lacks depends on libxrandr-dev (>= 4.3.0.dfsg.1-4), x11proto-core-dev, libsm-dev (>= 4.3.0.dfsg.1-4), libxmu-dev (>= 4.3.0.dfsg.1-4), libice-dev (>= 4.3.0.dfsg.1-4), libx11-dev (>= 4.3.0.dfsg.1-4), libxt-dev (>= 4.3.0.dfsg.1-4), libxrender-dev, libxcursor-dev, libxinerama-dev, libxi-dev, libmng-dev (>= 1.0.3), libpng12-0-dev, libjpeg62-dev, zlib1g-dev, libfreetype620:42
ScottK-dev, xlibmesa-gl-dev | libgl-dev, libglu1-xorg-dev | libglu1-mesa-dev | libglu-dev, libxft-dev, libaudio-dev, libpq-dev, libglib2.0-dev, libsqlite0-dev, libssl-dev, pkg-config20:42
ScottKThe lack of libssl-dev is the reason Quassel is missing SSL support in Lucid.20:42
RiddellScottK: this is in line with what debian do, it shouldn't be needed any more, the quassel package should build-dep on what it needs to build-dep on20:43
ScottKSput: ^^^20:44
ScottKRiddell: OK.  Well quassel assumes that if Qt is built with SSL support, openssl will be there20:44
alScottK: it's a bug in quassel to depend on the openssl headers20:45
Sputah interesting, we (in Gentoo) use another approach and say that a user of a library shouldn't have to care about the library's deps20:45
Sputal: which wouldn't help here, because with the new check, we would try to build support and probably fail because of missing headers20:45
Sputmaybe not (not sure if QSslSocket and friends need openssl headers to be present to be usable)20:46
alshouldn't20:46
ScottKIf you need the actual openssl headers, then I agree you should have them as a dependency.20:46
Sputwe don't do anything with SSL ourselves, we just use the Qt stuff20:46
ScottKDo you need the headers?20:46
alquassel doesn't need the headers imho20:46
ScottKOK20:47
Sputno we don't, just the CMake check does :)20:47
SputI think I'll backport the changes now20:47
Sputthey're required to build against recent versions of KDE 4.4 anyway20:47
ScottKSput: If your CMake check needs the headers, then you need the headers.20:47
Sputyes, and I'm about to fix that for the 0.5 branch20:48
ScottKOK.20:48
_Groo_koffice 2.1.1 is almost ready, fixing the .install files (theres always something missing/added :))21:01
_Groo_ScottK: argh isnt this fixed already? dpkg-shlibdeps: error: no dependency information found for /usr/lib/libGL.so.121:07
ScottKShould be fixed.21:07
crimsunmarkey: I haven't looked yet; I'm battling plymouth currently. I'll look in an hour.21:08
* ScottK was having a USB detecton problem with his droid just now. Root cause turned out to be the computer end of the cable not plugged in.21:09
_Groo_ScottK: ehehehe21:12
groo_ScottK: are you there?21:17
ScottK_Groo_: Yes.21:18
groo_ScottK: what package was having the libgl bug? mesa?21:18
ScottKIt was.21:18
groo_ScottK: was it a upstream bug? i mean, its a packaging bug or a mesa upstream one?21:19
ScottKEverything that I've tried to build with the fixed mesa works, so I suspect your package, not mesa at this point.21:19
ScottKIt was a packaging bug.21:19
groo_ScottK: cause im using xorg-edgers but it was working till today21:19
ScottKYou'd need to ask in #ubuntu-x then.21:20
ScottKNo idea about that.21:20
groo_ScottK: ok thanks21:20
Tonio_nixternal: yeah that was me :)21:20
Tonio_nixternal: I was really really tired and sleeping during a speach given by Raphink :)21:20
ScottKHiya Tonio_.21:21
Tonio_ScottK: ;)21:21
Tonio_nixternal: also I had a broken finger on the left foot by that time21:21
nixternalaww, poor raphink :)21:21
ScottKTonio_: finger/toe?21:22
nixternalhahaha21:22
* groo_ made a can this weekend.. very proud..21:24
Tonio_ScottK: yeah sorry toe21:25
Tonio_:)21:25
ScottKNo problem.21:25
Tonio_nixternal: yeah that wasn't that nice, especially since the speach was very good, about puppet/puppetmaster21:25
groo_ScottK: how do i fix this? say for shlibdep to ignore the lib? dpkg-shlibdeps: error: no dependency information found for /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 (used by debian/krita-kde4/usr/lib/kde4/kritatoolpolygon.so).21:25
ScottKDo you build-dep on mesa?21:26
groo_ScottK: im using xorg-edgers packages, it might21:27
ScottK_Groo_: I can't help you with the xorg-edgers stuff.  Check if it works with the packages from the actual Ubuntu archive.21:27
groo_ScottK: ive added DEB_DH_SHLIBDEPS_ARGS_krita-kde4 := --ignore-missing-info to debian/rules... should work now..21:30
groo_ScottK: and its harmless for normal build with ubuntu archive21:31
ScottKShould build.  That doesn't equate to work.21:31
groo_ScottK: no no... it built allright, its in the packaging fase thats giving that error, when its time to make the krita-kde4 package21:31
groo_ppl, how do i check to see if there are missing file in .install file? lintian takes care of that or do i need to run a command?22:14
groo_koffice 2.1.1 is ready :)22:17
ScottKgroo_: You need to use list-missing.22:21
Riddelldh_install --list-missing22:22
Riddelledit .install files22:22
Riddelldebuild -nc22:22
groo_Riddell: yeah that i know, the --list-missing is enabled by default?22:22
groo_Riddell: when i use /usr/share/pkg-kde-tools/qt-kde-team/1/debian-qt-kde.mk22:23
groo_or i just run dh_install --list-missing after debuild -us -uc?22:23
RiddellI don't think it is, you have to run it manually22:23
groo_Riddell: ok..22:24
ScottKRiddell: Dunno if you noticed, but we killed cdbs kde4.mk yesterday.22:24
groo_well koffice its working like a charm, i tested it completely, all apps works and appear to be very solid :)22:24
groo_Riddell: no i didnt.. where do you guys announce this things?22:24
RiddellScottK: yes, about time really22:24
Riddellannounce what?22:24
groo_Riddell: the changes in packaging methods22:25
Riddellhere?22:25
groo_Riddell: ¬¬ besides that? isnt there a mailing list for that kinda thing? or you just wait for me to come here screaming, OMG debuild eat my dog@!!!22:26
macoi think kubuntu-devel@l.u.c was supposed to be the answer22:26
groo_hmmm k some stuff is missing acording to dh_installer :P lets hack those .install files and do a new version ¬¬22:27
groo_maco: i suspect Riddell likes me bursting here screming my lungs out22:27
groo_screaming22:27
Riddellgroo_: koffice doesn't use kde4.mk does it?22:28
groo_Riddell: no its using debian-qt-kde.mk22:33
Riddellso what's the problem?22:33
ScottKgroo_: As nixternal said yesterday (and I think the day before) the blocker to getting it updated in the archive is main inclusion.22:33
Riddellof which pstoedit is the last package which needs an update from upstream22:35
groo_Riddell: no problem whatsoever :)22:35
groo_there.. all missing files solved... nice to know about dh_install... it took some hours out of my work :)22:42
RiotingPacifistIf i had a problem with the kdm packaged in kde4.4rc1 where would i file a bug report (I'm having trouble with launchpad & searching atm)22:45
groo_RiotingPacifist: try ubuntu-bug kdm in console22:45
RiotingPacifistgroo_: it tells me it's not a ubuntu packages (i'm running 4.4rc1 from kubuntu-beta ppa23:06
ScottKRiotingPacifist: PPA are not an official part of Ubuntu, so that's correct.  File the bug against kubuntu-ppa project.23:08
groo_RiotingPacifist: oh i thought you were using lucid, sorry my mistake23:10
RiotingPacifisthttps://bugs.launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa ?23:10
RiotingPacifistsorry im on karmic running the ppa, i went to that address earlier but given it's empty it doesn't seam right :s23:11
ScottKIt's relatively new.23:12
ScottKIIRC it's https://bugs.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa23:12
RiotingPacifistthx23:14
* groo_ is listening to See You Space Cowboy... by Yoko Kanno on Cowboy Bebop [Amarok2]23:23
nixternalRiddell: I am working on a pstoedit merge/update23:42
nixternalonce that one is complete, I have already got 6 MIRs documented locally23:43
nixternalthere is no rush to get koffice updated in lucid23:43
nixternali am working with upstream to make sure we install the correct packages...as there should be a good number of list-missing, even with an updated package...and those files need to be documented in not-installed for the time being23:44
