[00:28] <CIA-3> ubiquity: superm1 * r3863 ubiquity/ (bin/ubiquity debian/changelog): Raise permissions for misc.execute calls in bin/ubiquity.
[00:39] <CIA-3> ubiquity: superm1 * r3864 ubiquity/ (debian/changelog ubiquity/frontend/base.py): Don't allow oem-user-config and oem-config to both be enabled.
[09:40] <ev> Doh.  In ripping out large parts of ubiquity-dm, I seem to have forgotten about setting the locale on ubiquity exit.  Fixing now.
[10:48] <cjwatson> hmm, gfxboot is falling through to booting from the local disk on timeout from the splash screen.  that's wrong
[11:15] <davmor2> cjwatson: I'm going to try a kvm experiment if it works we could get to the bottom of the blkid issue without resorting to ssh :)
[11:15] <cjwatson> ok
[11:32] <davmor2> ev: is it know that today's installer at least in kvm is displaying no slides
[11:33] <ev> davmor2: can you pastebin your syslog please?
[11:36] <davmor2> ev: http://paste.ubuntu.com/387553
[11:38] <ev> ah, I see what you mean (tested it myself)
[11:38] <ev> bah
[11:39] <davmor2> all you get is the grey right?
[11:39] <davmor2> ev: I'll try it on hw for you after incase it's just a vm thing
[11:40] <ev> I don't believe it is
[11:42] <davmor2> meh install broken dpkg erroe
[11:42] <davmor2> error even
[11:52] <ev> seems to be the result of a recent change to webkit (1.1.21 works fine)
[11:52]  * ev digs further
[12:17] <davmor2> my bag on the dpkg error didn't make the / partition big enough
[12:34] <ev> right, so the slideshow issue seems to be a security check that's failing.  Something is making the XMLHttpRequest think the request is coming from a different origin, or at least that what I gather from looking at the webkit source.
[12:40] <davmor2> cjwatson: Yay blkid issue is reproducible in kvm.  install ubu manually create 3 primary partition one for /, /home and swap.  Then do an install over that one using whole drive.
[12:41] <davmor2> done it twice and died both times
[12:42] <cjwatson> ok, cool
[12:42] <cjwatson> will try that later ...
[12:42] <cjwatson> thanks!
[12:42] <cjwatson> ev: we need to not show the intro screen in maybe-ubiquity mode, I think
[12:43] <cjwatson> any way we can put the intro text alongside the "Install Ubuntu" text?  only up to beta of course
[12:43] <ev> cjwatson: I had contemplated that but thought that, given that we're not in beta yet, we might want to show them that message still
[12:43] <ev> ah, good thinking
[12:43] <ev> will do
[12:43] <cjwatson> there seems to be plenty of room
[12:43] <ev> indeed there is
[12:43] <cjwatson> I wonder if we might want to change the title too
[12:43] <cjwatson> (from "Install")
[12:44] <ev> indeed, suggestions?  "Welcome to Ubuntu 10.04"?
[12:44] <ev> though repeating welcome seems a bit silly
[12:44] <cjwatson> seems plausible-ish, not sure ...
[12:45] <ev> michaelforrest: ?
[12:45] <ev> oh, I think he went for lunch
[12:46] <ev> well, either way, I'll sort it out
[12:46] <ev> thanks
[13:09] <cjwatson> ev: oh, and at this point it will be worth putting the intro message somewhere where it can be translated :-)
[13:09] <cjwatson> we could maybe get rid of the intro page entirely, at least for GTK, as it seems to fit on the language page now either way
[13:35] <michaelforrest> hi. can't really make sense of this conversation..
[13:55] <ev> cjwatson: yeah, definitely
[13:57] <ev> michaelforrest: we're speaking of the first page that comes up when running the installer before beta, the one that says:
[13:57] <ev> This is a pre-release of the Ubuntu live CD installer. It is not a final release; that will come with the final release of Ubuntu 10.04 in April 2010.
[13:57] <ev> The installation process may resize or erase partitions on your hard disk. Be sure to <b>take a full backup of any valuable data</b> before running this program.
[13:58] <michaelforrest> ok - I guess I don't really have an opinion about that screen since it doesn't go into the final thing anyway
[13:58] <ev> sure, but what do you think the greeter should be titled?
[13:59] <ev> it's currently "Install"
[14:49] <mterry> ev, is startup disk creator working for you in lucid?
[14:53] <ev> mterry: what issue are you having?
[14:54] <mterry> ev, "Failed to install the bootloader"
[14:56] <ev> mterry: can you pastebin your ~/.usbcreator.log?
[14:58] <ev> and /root/.usbcreator.log (ugh, I need to fix that)
[15:08] <mterry> ev, technical problems caused delay, but here it is: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/387647/
[15:12] <ev> ah, I think I see the problem
[15:17] <ev> I see the problem
[15:17] <ev> the partition is mounted when we try to set it as bootable in the partition table
[15:17] <ev> which parted exited nonzero on, which triggers the exception
[15:17] <ev> not sure how this ever worked before now
[15:17]  * ev works on a fix
[15:26] <mterry> ev, :)  thanks
[15:27] <ev> mterry: if you need it to work *right now*, wrap popen(['/sbin/parted', parent, 'set', str(num), 'boot', 'on']) (in usb-creator-helper) in a try/except/pass clause.
[15:27] <mterry> ev, thanks!
[15:28] <crow_> hello can you help me with asus k50in lap top and ubuntu 10,04 alfa 3 i cant install OS
[15:29] <ev> crow_: what's failing?
[15:30] <crow_> First problem is I can not see GUI when I start Live CD. I solved that problem with F6 nomodeset. When I install Ubuntu and try start OS I got this
[15:32] <crow_> I got a 6 desktops and I can fix that display is freez
[15:33] <ev> I don't follow.  Are you implying that you were able to get to the installer and through it, you're just having issues post-install?  Or did the installer crash at some point?
[15:36] <crow_> installer work if i boot live cd with F6 nomodeset
[15:36] <crow_> when I finish installation and reboot I  cant enter in ubntu
[15:40] <ev> crow_: I'm afraid we only deal with issues with the installer here.  However, you might want to make sure you have nomodeset on your kernel command line in grub by holding down shift when you start the computer.  Hit 'e' on the first entry, then add nomodeset at the end of the kernel line.
[15:42] <crow_> ok thanks I try
[15:42] <ev> crow_: I would suggest filing a bug against 'xorg' or 'linux' in launchpad, following the instructions at the bottom of this page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/KernelModeSetting
[16:44] <ev> shtylman: apply to become an Ubuntu member already!
[16:44]  * ev shakes his fist
[16:44] <ev> :)
[16:51] <shtylman> ev: yea yea... I know... im lazy :p
[16:51] <shtylman> I need to catch one of those meeting times
[16:53] <ev> you sure do
[16:53] <davmor2> shtylman: just become a kubuntu-member
[16:54] <shtylman> davmor2: yea... that still requires going to a meeting first :)
[17:28] <CIA-3> ubiquity: evand * r3865 ubiquity/ (6 files in 3 dirs):
[17:28] <CIA-3> ubiquity: Move the alpha warning for the GTK+ frontend to the language page.
[17:28] <CIA-3> ubiquity: It fits better there now that we have the greeter functionality.
[17:31] <CIA-3> ubiquity: evand * r3866 ubiquity/ubiquity/components/ubi-language.py: slight refactoring on previous commit.
[17:55] <shtylman> ev: the greeter you have... does the kde side need something similar?
[17:56] <ev> shtylman: yes
[17:56] <ev> shtylman: is that something you have time for?
[17:56] <shtylman> ev: yea..I can tackle it this weekend
[17:57] <ev> you rock
[17:57] <shtylman> is it just a plugin?
[17:57] <shtylman> how does it interface with everything else?
[18:01] <ev> shtylman: it's part of ubi-language
[18:01] <shtylman> ev: noted
[18:05] <ev> shtylman: I have to unbreak it for oem-config, so watch out for those changes (will hopefully get to that tonight)
[18:06] <shtylman> ev: k... I also need to figure out how you prevent the desktop from loading... if you do currently (from the screenshot it appears so)
[18:06] <ev> shtylman: all of that is done by non-frontend-specific code
[18:07] <shtylman> ev: cool
[18:07] <ev> (the bottom of bin/ubiquity-dm if you're curious)
[18:07] <shtylman> curious indeed :)
[18:08] <superm1> ev, what else has to be unbroken for oem-config w/ it though?
[18:08] <superm1> oem-config uses a different language page
[18:10] <ev> superm1: it uses a different ui file, but not a different ubi-language.py
[18:11] <ev> and the code I landed assumes some things from the regular ui file exist, and doesn't guard against that with a check for oem-config.
[18:12] <superm1> oh this must be recent commits then related to the intro page stuff
[18:12] <ev> (It was not my intention to upload it in this state; I only realized this morning that I had failed to do this everywhere)
[18:12] <ev> yup
[18:35] <CIA-3> ubiquity: evand * r3867 ubiquity/ (3 files in 3 dirs):
[18:35] <CIA-3> ubiquity: Push handling the progress bar when on the partitioning page
[18:35] <CIA-3> ubiquity: properly into ubi-partman.
[18:36] <ev> forgot I could do that so easily.  So lame
[21:30] <CIA-3> ubiquity: evand * r3868 ubiquity/ (debian/changelog ubiquity/components/ubi-partman.py):
[21:30] <CIA-3> ubiquity: Show the advanced partitioning page immediately, now that its
[21:30] <CIA-3> ubiquity: progress is displayed in the window contents (LP: #336751).
[21:58] <CIA-3> ubiquity: evand * r3869 ubiquity/ubiquity/components/ubi-language.py: Fix the oem-config language page with respect to the recent greeter and introduction changes.
[23:16] <ev> bah, launchpad goes down right when I want to upload ubiquity to beat the freeze
[23:16] <ev> what luck :-/
[23:16] <ev> oh well, night
