ari-tczewrobert_ancell: I'm not sure. Last time I've discussed with seb128 about sponsoring me by you.00:01
ari-tczewWe've explained that if you're subscribed or setted as reviewer, then know that you're sponsor.00:01
ari-tczewrobert_ancell: I prepared a merge also for webkit, but there is FTBFS.00:13
robert_ancellari-tczew, yeah, I asw that.  It needs to be patched to run the latest GTK - there's probably a patch in the upstream git00:13
ari-tczewok00:14
robert_ancellmclasen, hey, I'm also doing a patch for the gtkprint tests (they're trying to access old private values) - are you ok if I commit it without a bug report?04:29
mclasenoh yeah, sure04:29
robert_ancellta04:33
robert_ancellmclasen, btw, loving all the API cleaning in the new GTK...04:38
robert_ancellall the things that tripped me up when learning are melting away04:38

davmor2Hey guys I've noticed something odd with natty, after the screen has blanked I'm not getting password for access,  I'm also not able to click on anything on the desktop either.  I'm assuming that this is an issue with the screensaver would that be correct?13:47

nessitahello everybody! is anyone available to sponsor a natty package?14:13
nessitamerge proposal is: https://code.launchpad.net/~nataliabidart/ubuntu/natty/ubuntuone-control-panel/ubuntu-control-panel-0.1.0/+merge/4446414:13
kenvandinenessita, i will be in a bit, finishing something else and then i need to run an errand14:26
kenvandineif you ping me in a couple hours to remind me i can do it :)14:26
nessitakenvandine: sure I can, and I will. Thanks!14:27

cyphermoxI found a workaround to locally build unity yesterday14:40
kenvandine:)14:40
cyphermoxexcept my fix for multimonitor stuff didn't quite work :P14:41
cyphermoxI'm not sure if that will be fine for the buildds, but I'll try it on a ppa later14:41

Amaranthcyphermox: what was the workaround? editing the .install file?15:26
cyphermoxAmaranth, nope, define COMPIZ_PREFIX in the dh_auto_configure target to ".." works here15:29
cyphermoxwhich is also why I'm not convinced it will work on the buildds15:30
Amaranthweird15:30
Amaranthyeah, I don't think so15:30
cyphermoxsomehow I tend to agree ;)15:30
cyphermoxat least it means for now I can build the package and test my patches locally15:30
cyphermoxAmaranth, however that still means there is something to tweak in the cmake files to make it work properly15:32
Amaranthcyphermox: I guess we could add that on to the giant list smspillaz is collapsing under :)15:33
cyphermoxAmaranth, nah, I intend to send merge requests ;)15:34
Amaranthcyphermox: careful, if you fix the build system I'm going to poke you for all build system issues :)15:35
cyphermoxhahaha15:35
cyphermoxnothing's fixed yet ;)15:36
* cyphermox notes to not let Amaranth know about fixes done in the future...15:36

jhon_Hello, in Lucid the frequency monitors always at start are in 'performance' when usually was in 'ondemand'  anyone know how can I fix this ?16:14

mterrynessita, yw!  :)  looking pretty nice these days17:40
nessitathanks17:40
kenvandinenessita, still need sponsoring?17:53
kenvandinenessita, guess not :)17:53
kenvandinerodrigo_, pong17:53
nessitakenvandine: no, thanks, m-terry did it :-)17:53
kenvandinecyphermox, did a google search last night to see if i could program a logitech harmony remote using ubuntu... first hit was an old blog post from you :)17:54
kenvandinecyphermox, that stuff still work ok on natty?17:54
cyphermoxkenvandine, afaik, yes. and I still maintain it in Debian :)17:56
cyphermoxI have two remotes I actively use at home, and planning on a third one to have access to every once in a while ;)17:56
cyphermoxkenvandine, which model do you have?17:56
kenvandinecool17:56
kenvandine60017:56
cyphermoxkenvandine, I think that works17:56
kenvandinegot it for my wife for xmas, which probably sounds weird17:56
cyphermoxno, in fact not really :)17:57
kenvandinebut she complains nearly daily about having to use 3 remotes :)17:57
cyphermoxexactly :D17:57
kenvandinewhich actually doesn't bother me at all... :)17:57
kenvandineafter 10 years of complaining, i am fixing it :-p17:57
mdeslaurcyphermox: oh! do you just package the harmony stuff, or are you an upstream?17:58
cyphermoxmdeslaur, I package it and do some contribution upstream... not huge amounts though17:59
kenvandinecyphermox, it is pretty simple isn't it?17:59
kenvandineweb configure, suck down some file and copy it to the usb device?17:59
cyphermoxright17:59
kenvandine*simple*17:59
cyphermoxit uses the web interface to get the data to flash to the remote18:00
kenvandinenice that the logic is all on the web18:00
mdeslaurcyphermox: I _was_ going to send you a harmony 1000 to reverse-engineer, but now... :)18:00
cyphermoxmdeslaur, I'd be happy to look into it18:00
cyphermoxI think the 1000 is already in progress too18:00
kenvandinecyphermox, does the hardware change much?18:00
kenvandinewould be nice to have a stable interface to the device... but the hardware vendors don't usually agree for some reason18:01
cyphermoxnot really, but I know more recent remotes are being painful.. they use a new website in silverlight18:01
mdeslaurcyphermox: I don,t actually have one18:01
cyphermoxI know my 300 doesn't work at all yet.18:01
cyphermox(working on it)18:01
cyphermoxwell, if we had a database of codes for devices, and a better understanding of how they are written to the remote (or changing the firmware completely to something free) we could do lots18:02
cyphermoxafaik, the firmware *is* replaceable, since you can flash updates to it ;)18:02
kenvandineyeah, but who wants to maintain firmware18:03
mdeslaurin _silverlight_? ugh18:03
cyphermoxkenvandine, I meant something like rockbox, basically, but for the harmony ;)18:06
cyphermoxmdeslaur, yeah, exactly how I felt.. plus it really looks for IE.18:06
xclaesseis it known that ssh agent doesn't work in natty?18:17
xclaessecould be because I'm using gnome-keyring 318:17
dobeyrodrigo_: ping. bug #559082 is fixed by now i hope?18:19

ari-tczewrobert_ancell: which branch do I have to touch? ubuntu or rather ubuntu-desktop team?23:12
robert_ancellari-tczew, check the Vcs-Bzr link in debian/control.  In general it's the ubuntu-desktop one23:13
ari-tczewrobert_ancell: OK, I'll do it. so don't I need to create a bzr merge for ubuntu branch?23:14
robert_ancellari-tczew, you would if that's where we were doing the packaging23:18
robert_ancellThe Ubuntu branch is the "new" way of doing things, but most packages are still maintained in ~ubuntu-desktop branches23:19
ari-tczewrobert_ancell: I've done ~90%. I'm fighting with this package 4hours!23:39
robert_ancellheh, I know that feeling!23:39
ari-tczewrobert_ancell: the wall is different between md5sums of tarballs23:40
robert_ancellthe wall?23:40
ari-tczewso generic diffs is specific and have to avoid creating patches debian-changes (quilt 3)23:41
