| cjwatson | ev: painful, painful experience ;-) | 11:40 |
| ev | lol | 11:40 |
| cjwatson | glad you found the culprit that was holding it open, that's often the tedious bit | 11:41 |
| ara | cjwatson, ping | 11:53 |
| cjwatson | ara: hello | 12:01 |
| ara | cjwatson, hi, after root installation, (again software target), how can I boot the initiator? (any link to documentation on how to setup dhcp to do this will help) | 12:09 |
| cjwatson | cf. bug 447377. | 12:10 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 447377 in netbase "iSCSI installation on root too complicated" [Undecided,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/447377 | 12:10 |
| cjwatson | you tend to have to copy kernel and initrd out to a tftp server | 12:10 |
| ara | cjwatson, is this supposed to be fix? | 12:15 |
| cjwatson | maybe, if I can figure out how | 12:16 |
| cjwatson | at best, it may be fixed by providing online directions in the installer. I don't really see how we would be able to do much better, given that it's very dependent on local details of tftp setup | 12:16 |
| cjwatson | the process does suck a bit at the moment | 12:17 |
| ara | then, what I am supposed to test? It is a bit unclear when should I mark the test as passed or failed | 12:20 |
| ara | so, if I get to boot it (no matter how hard it is), is it good enough? | 12:24 |
| davmor2 | cjwatson: on the live cd you get a notice about there being media with upgrades on it. Like you would if you dropped a live cd into a machine with ubuntu on already. Is this a capser issue? | 12:29 |
| cjwatson | ara: well, how about we be a bit interactive about this to start with? write down the procedures you needed to get it to work, and we'll see if they seem reasonable | 12:31 |
| cjwatson | davmor2: I don't know ... | 12:31 |
| cjwatson | I've seen the same thing recently, which implies a regression somewhere else, but it could be that casper needs to work around something differently | 12:31 |
| ara | cjwatson, OK, let's do that | 12:34 |
| davmor2 | cjwatson: okay I'll bug it do you want it assigning to you? | 12:38 |
| cjwatson | davmor2: not really :) can you just target it to lucid and I'll see if I have time to pick it up if nobody else does? | 12:41 |
| cjwatson | ara: we already have some other installation paths that involve basically presenting a dialog at the end of installation telling you what you need to do by hand; it's not great but sometimes it seems to be necessary | 12:43 |
| ara | cjwatson, yes, some information would be nice :) | 12:44 |

| shtylman | ev: anything new on the plugin merging front? | 16:24 |
| shtylman | were you able to get the gtk side all "pluginized?" | 16:24 |
| ev | shtylman: getting close to finishing, then I'll need your help fixing up some kde bits, if that's okay | 16:24 |
| shtylman | ev: perfectly ok :) | 16:24 |

| CIA-52 | ubiquity: evand * r3755 ubiquity/scripts/install.py: Typo. Missing self parameter. | 16:29 |
| ev | shtylman: how many sled dogs did you need to get around for the past few days? If the NY Times photography section is to be believed, it looks like there was some serious snowfall and whiteout. | 16:44 |
| shtylman | ev: hahaha.... yesterday it snowed all day | 16:45 |
| shtylman | it was some crazy stuff | 16:45 |
| shtylman | but nyc was very good about keeping the now shoveled out of the way | 16:45 |
| ev | yeah, manhattan generally does a pretty good job, but all bets are off once you enter any of the other boroughs | 16:46 |
| shtylman | haha | 16:47 |
| ev | but that applies to most things | 16:47 |
| shtylman | does london get alot of snow? | 16:47 |
| ev | watching queens suffer through a month long power outage because ConEd just doesn't care is basically a spectator sport | 16:47 |
| ev | shtylman: well, depends on your perspective | 16:48 |
| ev | the locals surely thought this was a sign of the end times | 16:48 |
| shtylman | hahaha | 16:48 |
| cjwatson | it gets a lot of snow if you live in, say, Spain | 16:48 |
| ev | at least that's how the BBC positioned it | 16:48 |
| ev | haha | 16:48 |
| cjwatson | the thing it has a lot of is inability to deal with it, largely because significant snowfall is rare enough that the country is simply not very well geared up for it | 16:49 |
| ev | yup | 16:49 |
| cjwatson | (and there's an argument that it wouldn't be economic to gear up much more) | 16:49 |
| shtylman | I can believe that | 16:50 |
| shtylman | the south (in the US) is basically the same way | 16:50 |
| ev | it's like DC, which I imagine hasn't been heard from since the storm started and is largely hiding under their collective blankets, waiting for death to come. | 16:50 |
| ev | indeed | 16:50 |
| shtylman | if Atlanta got any snow.. the city basically broke | 16:50 |

| shtylman | ev: hahaha | 16:50 |
| CIA-52 | ubiquity: evand * r3734 plugins-conversion/ (4 files in 3 dirs): | 16:52 |
| CIA-52 | ubiquity: Fix the install component by moving some code back into the base frontend. One | 16:52 |
| CIA-52 | ubiquity: could argue that this should be communicated through debconf rather than the | 16:52 |
| CIA-52 | ubiquity: frontend, but I'm not sure it's worth the round-trip just for consistency with | 16:52 |
| CIA-52 | ubiquity: the other plugins. | 16:52 |
| cjwatson | ev: FWIW, I think your oem-config work item about bullet-proof-X might turn out to be a duplicate of work I'm doing for gfxboot-updat | 17:12 |
| cjwatson | e | 17:12 |
| ev | cjwatson: I thought it might be. I'm somewhat blocked on two upstart bugs (unless we start {k,g}dm in oem-config's upstart script. | 18:56 |
| ev | bug 516713 and bug 517198 | 18:59 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 516713 in upstart "init: events are unblocked when the job fails" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/516713 | 18:59 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 517198 in upstart "init: failing job blocking starting event means blocked job starts, even if failing job can recover and respawn" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/517198 | 18:59 |
| cjwatson | ev: hmm, I was just planning to reimplement bullet-proof-X in ubiquity-dm; I still want to have the same stuff run in the session | 19:06 |
| cjwatson | or at least the server bits of it | 19:06 |
| cjwatson | ev: so if you're talking about falling through to a full BPX failsafe session without ubiquity/oem-config, then that's different I think | 19:06 |
| ev | no, I'm talking about oem-config X failure -> failsafe-x -> failsafe X session -> oem-config | 19:07 |
| cjwatson | ah | 19:07 |
| cjwatson | my plan was to just have it retry X server startup with vesa, which is not as powerful (you don't get to reconfigure X etc.) but maybe good enough for some cases | 19:08 |
| ev | by failsafe x session I mean /etc/X11/failsafeXinit | 19:08 |
| ev | sure | 19:08 |
| cjwatson | would that interfere with what you're doing? | 19:08 |
| cjwatson | I guess you can always back it out once you have something more powerful in place | 19:08 |
| ev | it would, but I think it's a perfectly reasonable approach | 19:08 |
| ev | I'm not sure users really need the extra features the failsafe X session provides that early on | 19:09 |
| cjwatson | I think your answer is better but probably harder :) | 19:09 |
| ev | actually, it's surprisingly easy, safe those two upstart bugs | 19:09 |
| cjwatson | I'm not sure, I so rarely run into it. It does let you do explicit displayconfig reconfiguration, doesn't it? | 19:09 |
| ev | yes | 19:09 |
| cjwatson | I think that would be good to have | 19:11 |
| ev | fair enough | 19:11 |
| cjwatson | right now I'm looking at something like this: | 19:13 |
| cjwatson | http://paste.ubuntu.com/374159/ | 19:13 |
| cjwatson | which is a massive bodge but I was just trying to clear out the gfxboot-update spec :) | 19:13 |
| cjwatson | speaking of which, Cody just sent me a sample greeter; I'll have a look at integrating that tomorrow | 19:14 |
| ev | woo | 19:14 |
| ev | correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think monitor and screen are necessary | 19:14 |
| ev | oh, nevermind. Jockey source code tells me I'm wrong :) | 19:15 |
| cjwatson | was just copy and paste from failsafeXServer | 19:16 |
