psusiRAOF, you seem to be the x/video guy... am I correct in understanding that the radeon driver loads binary blobs of firmware code provided by ati without source code?  so there is no way to understand how the code running in the card works or modify it in any way?00:53
* psusi wonders if he can run them through a disassembler00:54
penguin42psusi: I might be wrong, but I don't think we know what CPU that firmware executes on01:08
psusiheh... weird... apparently I keep getting these weird error messages related to npviewer on my terminal window because chromium and thus npviewer are using that tty for output even though it is not their controlling tty, I guess because chromium was started by apport-bug...01:10
psusisurely somewhere along that chain of events, that fd should have been closed...01:11

dokogeser: do you volunteer to comlete the MIR for libhdate?12:50
gesercjwatson_: no there isn't, just looked why it's in DEPWAIT and noticed the package rename of libhdate-python12:51
geserdamn, a MIR is also involved :(12:51
cjwatson_it's depwait in the same way both before and after the merge :-/12:51
geserjust realized that myself12:53

penguin42hdon: Does it normally use X ?15:08
hdonpenguin42, i believe my problem is because i did not supply it its environment variables15:08
penguin42yeh makes sense15:09
penguin42I don't suppose anyone knows the details of swap signatures and in particular how hibernation signatures interact with them?15:12
hdonhmm, well15:46

FTMichaelI'm using an application that needs its version updated in the repos.  (It's in Universe.)  How do I submit a bug report to request that the maintainer update it?19:27
lifelessFTMichael: we don't have maintainers. You can file a bug asking that it be updated, but the best thing to do is supply an update to it.19:28
FTMichaellifeless, the update is available for download as source to be compiled - I just want it to be in the repos to make life easier.19:28
FTMichaelhttps://github.com/andy-shev/LogJam/archives/v4.6.0 has the source code.19:29
lifelessyes, I understand.19:29
lifelessthe #ubuntu-motu channel, which deals with universe, would be a better place to discuss this19:29
FTMichaelah, okay.  Thanks :)19:29
FTMichaelHow do I file a bug asking that it be updated though?  I was having a hard time finding that in Launchpad for some reason19:31
lifelesswe heavily depend on the data gathered by apport for bug triage for (most) bugs19:31
FTMichaelGotcha19:31
lifelessso non-developers have the web UI for filing bugs turned off19:31
* FTMichael found ubuntu-bug19:32
lifelessdevelopers (which we welcome more of!) have the web UI available (but are still meant to use ubuntu-bug where possible :)19:32
FTMichael:)  Thanks muchly!19:33

micahgsladen: I'm assuming the Firefox regression you reported was based on the version in Natty?21:33
sladenmicahg: FF4b7 (I think it notes this in the report).  Should it be against a different +source/package ?21:36
micahgsladen: no, I'm just wondering which build it is (upstream, firefox-next, natty)21:36
sladenmicahg: firefox=4.0~b7+nobinonly-0ubuntu3  from the archive21:36
micahgsladen: ok, that's natty, thanks21:37
