lifelessaccording to that bug's status, fixed for over a year05:39
owen1lifeless: that's wierd. i can't configure my touchpad and i have the same issue.05:40
lifelesswell, you have the same symptoms. Doesn't mean same issue (though it may be)05:40
owen1lifeless: why does it say "in progress"05:40
lifelessif there is a patch, you could try applying it and seeing if that fixes it - and if so, raise it.05:40

pittisuperm1: ah, seems you already prepared dell-recovery for udisks, great! (I'm about to remove devicekit-disks from the lucid archive); you missed a bit in 96-dell-recovery-partition.rules, you need to additionally add UDISKS_PRESENTATION_HIDE08:49
pittisuperm1: (or instead, if you want to drop support for DK-D)08:49
pittisuperm1: however, I wonder whether 96-dell-recovery-partition.rules is needed in the first place; udisks already ships a lot of standard "hide recovery partitions" rules by default, aren't they sufficient?08:51

=== tkamppeter_ is now known as tkamppeter
ttxQuestion: I install a task through "apt-get install task^" with a PPA enabled (that provides some of the task deps): task installation just skips the package that happens to be provided by the PPA. Doesn't install the main equivalent, doesn't install the PPA version either. Any clue ?09:56
ttxmvo: ^ ?10:02
ttxThe issue being it prevents me from netbooting/preseeding a UEC install from an alternate repository10:03
mdzogra, I guess I'll download the 400M of debug symbols then ;-)10:04
mdzttx, the packages included in the task are determined by the Task: headers in the Packages files10:05
mdzttx, the PPA one won't have a Task: and so it won't be used10:05
ttxmdz: and it will not gracefully fallback to the main version, because it's not the install candidate... interesting10:06
* ttx digs deeper10:06
* xnox is upgrading to lucid - joy estimated upgrade time 3 hours10:07
mdzttx, you are probably better off just not using task^ and providing a list of the packages you want (maybe extracted from the task in main)10:07
ttxmdz: Right, however I'm testing the UEC installer, which uses the task10:08
ttxThe idea was to allow install-testing a work-in-progress eucalyptus, without having to upload it10:09
mdzttx, ...without running a local mirror :-)10:09
ttxI have a local mirror10:09
* ttx digs into Packages file10:10
mdzttx, you could try mirroring the PPA locally and modifying the Packages file10:11
ttxmdz: I'm on it :)10:11
ttxmdz: (In fact I use a local repo for that. PPA was just for sake of example/reproducing my issue)10:11
mdzttx, cjwatson and I have talked about writing a tool which takes a .changes and replaces that package into an .iso for testing10:11
mdzbut I don't think anyone has found the round tuits yet10:12
ttxmdz: It would be interesting as an additional test option, but I kinda like our new PXE based test setup10:12
ttxi'll just mangle my localrepo Packages file10:13
ttxmdz: Any reason why local repositories (or PPAs) don't get "Task" headers ? Shouldn't they be generated from the package control file ?10:14
mdzttx, no, they come from overrides10:14
* ttx mans apt-ftparchive10:15
mvottx: hi, that should work, does the Package have the right Task headers in the PPA?10:15
ttxmvo: apparently not10:16
mvottx: aha, I just read scrollback, mdz answered already10:17

sladendirecthex: (unless I'm completely misunderstanding the reason for some obsession reason for the paranoid CLI versioning)18:12
directhexsladen, well, it won't have trouble with a rebuild, as it versions against the UPSTREAM release.  2.1.svn20090801-1ubuntu74 is still << 2.1.svn2009080218:13
directhexsladen, that info is written into the lib (i.e. the lib says "my deps if you depend on me should read as follows:"), using the same parameters as with dh_makeshlibs18:14
sladendirecthex: so in this example, the answer is to modify 'libtaoframework-openal1.1-cil' $somehow to not ask for the exact linking?18:15
directhexsladen, in tao's case, it's intentional as there's a high likelihood of bits breaking if you have partly one release and partly another.18:16
directhexsladen, to do that, you'd add something like "dh_makeclilibs -plibtaoframework-openal1.1-cil -V" to debian/rules18:16
sladendirecthex: well stuff (upgrades) breaks *because* of it18:16
directhexsladen, what's the specific breakage? can i see the console spew?18:17

crimsunpitti: hi, is there an existing method to get a user's configuration files from within apport-symptoms, or do I need to do that manually using Python methods?18:51
slangasekKeybuk: so I've triaged another plymouth bug, but I'm not sure what to do with it. When you boot w/o splash, plymouth doesn't change vts, I guess to display all the boot-time messages.... so when gdm sees plymouth is there and assumes that means it can use the active VT for its server, it spawns on vt118:51
slangasekKeybuk: how *should* this be fixed?18:51

FP1hello20:11
FP1how do i start developing for ubuntu?20:13
Tm_TFP1: by joining #ubuntu-motu (:20:14
FP1do i download the ubuntu source code also? and thank you20:14
FP1and can i use eclipse for developing?20:15
qenseFP1: A new IRC channel for developign applications has just been opened at #ubuntu-app-devel It's just a few minutes old!20:15
FP1thanks :D20:16
FP1can i actually help develop the os?20:17
qenseFP1: Yes, but it is not like there is one place all applications are written.20:17
FP1do you get it on launchpad?20:18
qenseThere are many different projects all over the internet and Ubuntu takes its pick from those and puts them together.20:18
qenseSome applications are written by Ubuntu self, though.20:18
FP1are they developed in C++?20:18
qenseFP1: There are some applications on Launchpad, yes.20:18
qenseFP1: That varies enourmously.20:18
sebnerFP1: most ist in python20:18
FP1ok :P20:18
sebner*is20:18
sebnerfrom the *self-developed* stuff20:19
qensebut the graphical interface you see is mostly written in C20:19
qenseWhereas the office applications uses Java20:19
FP1oh, cool20:19
FP1is there any good developing applications out there for linux20:19
qensee.g. the chat client Empathy isn't developed by us, but by other people at www.gnome.org20:19
qensewe do develop Update Manager20:19
FP1i've heard of eclipse20:19
qenseEclipse is indeed a very powerful IDE20:20
FP1do you suggest using eclipse?20:20
FP1im on empathy now :P20:20
qenseIt depends on your personal preferences and what you're doing with it.20:20
qenseI'm using 'gedit' for developing, not Eclipse.20:20
qenseThere is also Anjuta, MonoDevelop, NetBeans and a lot more.20:20
FP1i use gedit for website developing but never new you could use it for programming also20:21
FP1*knew20:21
qenseYou don't _have_ to use a certain application for programming.20:21
qenseAny text editor will do.20:22
FP1ok20:22
qensebut lets continue this conversation in the new channel20:22

superm1crimsun, why do i have my annoying beep back in lucid rather than the pretty ding sounds that I got from karmic for my system bell?22:39
superm1is that intentional?22:39
crimsunsuperm1: is module-x11-bell loaded? Which wm are you using? Is the beep element enumerated in your [alsa]mixer?22:58
superm1crimsun, this was a fresh lucid gnome install.  how do I query if module-x11-bell is loaded?22:59
superm1I do see a "PC Beep" in my alsamixer, it's set to 0 by default22:59
superm1but not muted22:59
crimsunsuperm1: pactl list |grep x11-bell22:59
superm1crimsun, yeah it lists it22:59
crimsunsuperm1: is your PC Beep also a binary toggle [mutable]?23:00
superm1Yes23:00
crimsunheh.23:04
crimsunwell, we appear to have (erroneously) dropped the patch to sound/pci/hda/hda_beep.c that disables it by default.23:04
superm1crimsun, well glad it's something silly :)23:05
eutis anyone aware of what version of libstdc++ the libstdc++5 and libstdc++6 packages correspond to? (i'm trying to find out which libstdc++ release i want to download and install)23:35
RAOFeut: libstdc++5 is built from gcc3.3 source; everything later is libstdc++6.23:37
eutRAOF, is it possible to install the older hardy package on 9.10? http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/amd64/libstdc++5/download23:38
crypt-0it *should* possible, but i wouldn't advise it23:42
