[11:10] ubiquity: jriddell * r4215 trunk/ (8 files in 5 dirs): Add prepare page to KDE frontend [11:10] please check for sanity ^^ [13:51] ev: hi [13:52] Riddell: hiya [13:53] ev: so, ubiquity kde frontend, what's best to do? [13:53] I've ported the prepare page over [13:54] do I want to do the fiddly stuff to get it installing after the partitioner page? [13:54] Yeah, I would suggest doing that to keep things consistent [13:54] if you have the time, of course [13:55] I have until thursday [13:55] it's going to need your help [13:55] sure thing [13:56] I see that find_next_step() is added [13:57] right, that handles pages that occur out of the normal flow [13:57] so, plugin pages that come after partitioning [13:57] as the main run loop is sitting on the copying files plugin (install.py) at that point [14:00] I suspect some changes are needed to run() ? [14:04] having added in find_next_step() and calling it from debconffilter_done() it starts installing after the partitioning page but gets stuck at disk scanning and the UI doesn't change to the next page [14:04] so obviously more changes needed [14:05] * ogra sighs [14:05] how often does ubiquity compile the keymaps during a single build ? [14:05] it takes ages on armel [14:05] * ogra watches it doing that for the third time now [14:20] debian-installer-utils: cjwatson * r699 ubuntu/ (19 files in 3 dirs): merge from Debian 1.79 [14:22] debian-installer-utils: cjwatson * r700 ubuntu/list-devices-hurd: consistency [14:24] debian-installer-utils: cjwatson * r701 ubuntu/debian/changelog: releasing version 1.79ubuntu1 [14:27] ubiquity: cjwatson * r4216 ubiquity/debian/ (changelog rules ubiquity.dirs-any ubiquity.install-any): Update build rules for changes in debian-installer-utils 1.78. [14:35] ah, ev. [14:40] Riddell: I may have missed the context on that. My IRC bouncer is all over the place today. [14:41] 14:00 < Riddell> I suspect some changes are needed to run() ? [14:41] 14:04 < Riddell> having added in find_next_step() and calling it from debconffilter_done() it starts installing after the partitioning page but gets stuck at disk scanning and the UI doesn't change to the next page [14:41] 14:04 < Riddell> so obviously more changes needed [14:54] if you can shove it in a public branch, I can take a look at it today/tomorrow. [15:02] ev: pushed to ~jr/ubiquity/ubiquity-maverick-kubuntu/ [15:02] thanks [15:03] hi ev, wb [15:03] thanks! [15:04] and thanks for your fixes while I was away [15:04] no prob, ubiquity appeared to be in a bit of a bad state with that last upload [15:05] the progress bar string and bar are still in quite a mess, but it should at least install now consistently [15:05] indeed, I'll be furiously trying to iron out the remaining wrinkles in the run up to Thursday [15:06] ev: does the wireless page do anything currently? [15:06] Riddell: yes, if you have a wireless card present (so, no in a VM) [15:07] oh wow beta freeze already this week, that really sneaks up on you [15:07] tell me about it [15:08] when I left it was merely feature freeze! :) [15:08] ev: what does it do? [15:08] Riddell: connects you to an available wireless network [15:08] ev: do I want to port it to KDE? [15:09] Riddell: I think it's an "if you have time" thing [15:09] not critical [15:09] http://docs.google.com/View?id=dfkkjjcj_101gnkrpg5v - for roughly what it should look like [15:10] we moved the icons to the left of the text for a reason that currently escapes me [15:13] ev: what happened to the machine name and the advanced dialogue box? [15:13] gone the way of the dodo [15:13] the bootloader options I'll need to fold into the advanced partitioning page before Thursday [15:14] but we agreed to get rid of the UI option to set the hostname at UDS (you can still set it through preseeding). [15:14] how is it set? [15:16] `SET netcfg/get_hostname ubuntu-desktop | sudo debconf-communicate` would do it [15:17] or by putting netcfg/get_hostname=ubuntu-desktop on the kernel command line [15:18] ev: I mean what's it set to if you don't preseed it [15:19] ubuntu-desktop or ubuntu-laptop, depending on the output of laptop-detect [15:20] err [15:20] the username plus "-desktop" or "-laptop" [15:20] * ogra wonders how many more hours he will have to watch ubiquity compiling keymaps [15:21] heh [16:15] How would I go by debugging why adding automatic-ubiquity to the kernel line doesn't cause ubiquity to run? Where would I start looking? [17:20] YIPPIEE ! [17:20] cjwatson, arch any for ubiquity works [17:21] * ogra didnt expect the test to be *that* time consuming though, i wasnt aware it compiles each and every udeb during build [17:21] cool, thanks
