robert_ancellTheMuso, ok, thanks00:04
RAOFTheMuso: :(00:06
TheMusoRAOF: Yeah, I expected as much with nouveau, but didn't with intel. Time to find out what I need to give the kernel guys to get things fixed.00:06

Sweetsharksooo ... if i want an unmodified debian package in a ppa, cant i just dput it there?09:54
brycehSweetshark, pretty much09:56
Sweetsharkk09:56
brycehSweetshark, I think it may need to be targeted to e.g. 'natty' rather than 'experimental' or 'unstable' or whatever09:56
Sweetsharkbryceh: ah, true.09:58
brycehSweetshark, so do a 'dch -rebuild "Rebuild for PPA" --distribution natty'09:58
brycehI think that'd do it09:58
brycehor just 'dch -i' and fix up a rebuild by hand09:59
* Sweetshark wonders why he cant find the package on packages.debian.org. http://ftp-master.debian.org/new/nlpsolver_0.9~beta1-4.html says it is uploaded for unstable.10:01
seb128Sweetshark, because the NEW queue is not public10:18
seb128Sweetshark, things in there have not been reviewed and couldn't respect some licenses or not be distributable10:19
seb128so they are not available to download to the public, only the people reviewing NEW have access to it10:19
Sweetsharkseb128: yep, i walked right into the dragons dungeon (#debian) to find out. I was not even flamed and received a friendly answer.10:22

chrisccoulsonseb128 - yeah, i'm good thanks10:26
chrisccoulsonseb128 - bug 721113 btw - we get quite a lot of these types of reports against firefox. they always turn out to be that the user installed some proprietary application that comes with a bundled version of nspr that ends up in the ld search path10:27

rodrigo_hmm, seems that's the one from the ppa, which indeed seems to need a rebuild10:38

rodrigo_is there any way to ask for a rebuild for all packages in the ppa?10:41

njpatelRAOF, Ping, had a few questions re: natty + Ati11:49
njpatelRAOF, in natty, are there both free and non-free Ati drivers available, or just free?11:49
RAOFIn natty, as of now, just free.11:49
njpatelis the ETA for non-free the same as nvidia? i.e. a few weeks away?11:49
RAOFPretty much.  The dates are NDA'd, of course.11:50
njpatelwell, weeks/months whatever11:50
njpatel"who know's" I guess11:50
njpatelokay, so we just need to wait11:50
njpatelRAOF, so for A3, the only thing we can really do is make fixes for intel and radeon I guess (unity)11:51
RAOFYeah.11:51
* njpatel re-milestones bugs to reflect that11:52
njpatelRAOF, thanks dude11:52
RAOFAnd nouveau if you feel particularly frisky, but we're not officially supporting that.11:52
Sweetsharkanyone interested in a reliable way to crash banfdaemon?13:01
didrocksSweetshark: can you send if via apport?13:05
mterryseb128, the other day, you were talking about liboobs being deprecated and that I should use the new method that GNOME 3.0 uses?  But it appears that such support is provided by gnome-settings-daemon 3.0, which we don't have13:07
seb128mterry, ?13:07
mterryseb128, I thought.  I looked briefly at the new 3.0 panel code, and it appeared they were using dbus calls to settings-daemon13:08
seb128mterry, right, the polkit interface is there in 2.3213:08
seb128mterry, that's what gnome-panel clock applet is using13:08
mterryseb128, really?  oh, I missed that...  will look again.13:08
seb128mterry, dpkg -L gnome-settings-daemon | grep date13:09
mterryseb128, oh right, we went over this.  :)13:09
seb128mterry, ;-)13:10
mterryseb128, do you know of a good replacement to liboobs for configuring ntp?  seems like that service doesn't provide that functionality13:10
seb128no13:11
seb128but seems like something we should add to this service if it's needed13:11
rodrigo_the one in g-s-d 3.013:11
seb128or talk to upstream about adding13:11
seb128rodrigo_, oh, they did in the new gsd?13:11
Sweetsharkdidrocks: no -- "an error during error reporting"13:11
mterryrodrigo_, you're saying the 3.0 version does ntp?13:11
rodrigo_seb128, afair yes, it has the ntp bits13:11
seb128let's do some backporting then ;-)13:11

mvoSarvatt: that sounds plausible16:34
seb128vish, there?16:38
Sweetsharkseb128: Im on it. Unfortunatly the current human icons are a mess (~7000 icons, and no difference between modified and "original" items). So "different" icons could be an upstream update or a real costumization. And we really do not want to add a theme, which reintroduced OpenOffice.org branding to Libreoffice. That would embarass us, Libreoffice and Oracle all in one turn ....16:51

seb128Sweetshark, ok16:52

seb128Sweetshark, great, no hurry I was just doing a status update for the weekly release team meeting (covering for pitti since he's not there)16:53
vishseb128: the home icon that mark wants already exists,16:53
vishseb128: if we change the system-file-manager icon to a home icon it would be shown wrong elsewhere too16:54
seb128vish, should the other be a symlink to it then?16:54
seb128vish, where is elsewhere?16:54
Sweetshark(source code modification is done and works -- see the ppa version -- all you have to do is drop a images_human.zip at the right location). Its the content of that zip, that is problematic ...16:54
vishseb128: off the top of my head, on the panel > the fileprogress icon and in the dialogue window which shows the file progress.. not sure where else it gets displayed, i'd have to think :)16:55
seb128vish, well I'm trying to figure if he wants the icon to be changed only the in the launcher, or in any nautilus launcher including the classic GNOME menus or if that includes the nautilus icon in switcher as well16:57
seb128Sweetshark, ok, gotcha, thanks for the update!16:57
vishseb128: he mentions only the launcher icon, and that the icon needs to open home directory.. so its just similar to the user home icon in the panel's places menu16:58
seb128ok, not sure how to do that16:58
seb128the launcher matches to a .desktop, we can't modify it only for the launcher16:59
vish didrocks mentions that it could be changed there..16:59
seb128guess we could add another nautilus-unity.desktop for it16:59
vishyea, probably17:00
seb128vish, well, we could update the .desktop yet, but the .desktop is used in the standard GNOME menus, in the places list, etc17:00
