|---|---|---|
| ibizatryx | mmmmmmm | 00:52 |
| cjwatson | we don't do software-center here, only initial OS installation | 00:56 |
| cjwatson | I don't know if they have a dedicated channel | 00:56 |
| ibizatryx | thanks anyways :( | 00:59 |

| njm | Hey Guys, since I updated my Ubuntu 10.04 Remix on my netbook, my 3G USB Dongle doesn't work anymore... It says: waiting for usb device to settle in dmesg. Any ideas? | 10:03 |
| CIA-28 | ubiquity: evand * r4381 trunk/ (139 files in 3 dirs): Update translations from Launchpad. | 10:05 |

| njm | Will do, thanx | 10:06 |
| ev | sure thing | 10:06 |
| ev | good luck | 10:06 |

| ogra | hmm, yesterdays image had a busy cursor all the time while oem-config was running, was that dropped again ? | 12:17 |
| ev | woo, finally got fakechroot working with debootstrap. | 14:18 |
| persia | \o/ | 14:18 |
| ev | (apparently the -s flag is magic) | 14:21 |
| ev | right, lunch | 14:21 |

| ev | thanks | 15:41 |
| CIA-28 | ubiquity: evand * r4384 trunk/ (3 files in 3 dirs): | 15:52 |
| CIA-28 | ubiquity: Fix the installer window growing and shrinking when typing in the | 15:52 |
| CIA-28 | ubiquity: boxes on the user setup page. | 15:52 |
| ev | Anyone have an objection to me also tailing syslog in the installer details section? Quite a bit of installer-related detail ends up there. | 15:59 |
| superm1 | sounds sensible to me | 16:04 |
| superm1 | how are you going to tail both though in the single vte? | 16:04 |
| ev | superm1: tail -f /var/log/installer/debug -f /var/log/syslog -q | 16:05 |
| superm1 | oh neat, i didn't know tail could do multiple files | 16:05 |
| superm1 | you might consider changing that though for when running oem-config to be /var/log/oem-config.log and /var/log/syslog | 16:06 |
| ev | good call! | 16:06 |
| ev | and yeah, I only recently stumbled upon it myself | 16:07 |
| CIA-28 | ubiquity: evand * r4385 trunk/ (3 files in 3 dirs): | 17:03 |
| CIA-28 | ubiquity: Do not show the prepare page by means of hiding the language page | 17:03 |
| CIA-28 | ubiquity: before the former is ready. | 17:03 |
| ev | interesting. You can't read syslog if you run python under sudo and then drop privileges. | 17:58 |
| CIA-28 | ubiquity: evand * r4386 trunk/ (2 files in 2 dirs): | 17:59 |
| CIA-28 | ubiquity: Fix a crash in the KDE partitioning page when no partitions are | 17:59 |
| CIA-28 | ubiquity: available for resizing (LP: #644407). | 17:59 |
| cjwatson | iz 0640 root:adm iirc | 17:59 |
| ev | yes, but ubuntu is in adm | 17:59 |
| cjwatson | maybe we're not calling setgroups | 17:59 |
| cjwatson | doesn't look like we are | 18:00 |
| ev | ahhh, well spotted | 18:00 |
| cjwatson | really quite startlingly tedious to get the right list, unless I'm missing something | 18:02 |
| cjwatson | mind you the python for it is a hell of a lot shorter than the C ;-) | 18:06 |
| ev | http://paste.ubuntu.com/497857/ seems to work | 18:17 |
| ev | I'll extend that to cover all cases | 18:18 |
| ev | and indeed :) | 18:18 |
| cjwatson | oh, heh, I was doing it too but was interrupted by a phone call | 18:19 |
| ev | oh, sorry | 18:20 |
| cjwatson | no problem | 18:20 |
| cjwatson | I came up with http://paste.ubuntu.com/497859/ but haven't tested it | 18:20 |
| cjwatson | the guts seem equivalent | 18:20 |
| ev | yes, but you're right to do it in a list comprehension | 18:20 |
| cjwatson | IIRC it's important to do setgroups before setegid on the way down and setgroups after setegid on the way up | 18:20 |
| cjwatson | I forget the details, it's just embedded in the cookbook bit of my brain | 18:21 |
| ev | lol | 18:21 |
| ev | I presume you have an entire copy of Stevens in there | 18:21 |
| cjwatson | no, that's on my bookshelf ;) | 18:23 |
| ev | cjwatson: http://paste.ubuntu.com/497877/ - how does that looks? You were missing casts to int and you'd hit a permissions issue if a drop was called inside a drop. | 18:49 |
| ev | look* | 18:50 |
| cjwatson | looks ok. we could perhaps even stick a try around setgroups | 18:56 |
| CIA-28 | ubiquity: evand * r4387 trunk/ (debian/changelog ubiquity/misc.py): | 19:01 |
| CIA-28 | ubiquity: Call setgroups() when raising and dropping privileges. Thanks Colin | 19:01 |
| CIA-28 | ubiquity: Watson! | 19:01 |
| CIA-28 | ubiquity: evand * r4388 trunk/ (debian/changelog ubiquity/frontend/gtk_ui.py): | 19:02 |
| CIA-28 | ubiquity: Also tail syslog in the installer details pane, since that's where | 19:02 |
| CIA-28 | ubiquity: the action is. | 19:02 |
| ev | ugh, I wish pylint and pychecker weren't so incredibly silly | 19:08 |
| ev | I've nearly got pyflakes to a point where it's not outputting errors, but only by virtue of it not actually doing much | 19:08 |
| dlyneswork | I'm just wondering if there's a specific version of ubuntu that instead of doing a warm boot (reboot into bios bootup sequence), it shuts down all services and processes, reloads the kernel, and starts everything all back up again, without ever going to the bios? | 21:10 |
| dlyneswork | Our IT guy gave me a ubuntu burn that doesn't do a bios reboot when you issue a reboot command...that's why I'm asking | 21:10 |
| ev | dlyneswork: please ask in #ubuntu, this channel is for installer development | 22:22 |
| dlyneswork | Oh, ok...thought it was questions about the installer | 22:23 |
| dlyneswork | Thanks | 22:23 |
| ev | sure thing | 22:23 |
