[09:26] poolie: yes [09:26] for 7 days, then they get auto-cleaned [09:27] so if you want to keep them around longer, you need to copy them somewhere else [09:27] you can run ubuntu-bug foo.crash to report it again [09:27] ok [09:27] so there's no gui but perhaps anyone advanced enough to do this should be happy to run this command [09:29] poolie: it's even mentioned in man ubuntu-bug [09:29] (OMG documentation) [09:30] poolie: so, there could be some UI improvements still; e. g. if the UI doesn't have network, it currently just fails with an error message; it could isntead give you a file save dialog [09:30] poolie: btw, you can also double-click on a crash file in nautilus, that works too [09:31] right, that sort of thing [10:11] Laney, thanks [10:13] dholbach: no worries [10:14] * Laney lights a candle for the MOTU Council [10:14] Laney: hm?

[15:18] so instead of reading them we could also ignore htem [15:18] cjwatson: crashes yes, but not bug reports (ubuntu-bug ubiquity) [15:18] passwords shouldn't generally end up in the log (unless people are running in debug mode) - making the logs private was just an extra safety measure [15:18] (we can tell them apart in the hook if necessary) [15:19] not having the logs would make the reports useless, for the most part [15:19] right, that's what I thought [15:19] but I wondered if there was one file which we shouldn't attach, or perhaps pre-process [15:19] cjwatson: e. g. for the debug log we could use "grep -v password" instead of "cat" or similar [15:19] the file that might contain passwords if several other things simultaneously go wrong is also the most useful file to have [15:20] and I'd be worried about preprocessing making it difficult to diagnose certain bugs [15:20] "Please enter your password, so that we can filter it out of your bug report" [15:20] there's already a visible warning in debug mode saying that you shouldn't use a valuable password [15:20] so to be honest I think it's OK to do as you did [15:20] soren: I literealy meant "password", i. e. usually there's some debugging context around [15:20] cjwatson: ok, thanks [15:20] cjwatson: sounds fine, but better to have a second pair of eyes on it [15:20] pitti: I know, I'm just joking around :) [15:21] * pitti just notices that his literally typo was an interesting morphing of that and "really" [15:29] Edubuntu currently doesn't have an amd64+mac spin.

Tell mac users "sorry we don't support you"? [15:32] tell them to install ubuntu then edubuntu-desktop :D [15:32] Can they install the Ubuntu image and then upgrade? [15:33] OOI, does the amd64+mac image also work on "normal" amd64 machines? [15:33] what does +mac involve, just some efi bits? couldn't there be one volume? [15:33] i. e. could we just have that? [15:33] That is what Xubuntu tells them. Just install the mac/ppc image from Ubuntu and then install xubuntu-desktop [15:33] charlie-tca: mostly. some of the biggest edubuntu features are installer related, so it might miss the point though [15:34] highvoltage: like the stuff that picks the different meta packages for grade levels? [15:34] ohsix: yep, and the LTSP installer and LTSP live, and the Unity session stuff, and more language options [15:35] hmm [15:36] shrug [15:36] I wonder if the standard amd64 iso will work with refit === Quintasan_ is now known as Quintasan [15:37] it would be an easy enough workaround if it does, which we could just include in the release notes [15:38] * highvoltage should've bought his mac mini to the office today [15:38] is there something that precludes all volumes being +mac besides space? [15:39] if space is the issue then the default edubuntu 64bit iso could just be +mac [15:39] DVDs should certainly not have much of a problem with that [15:39] on CD images it's got a bigger impact; e. g. the ubuntnu desktop amd64+mac has been oversized for ages [15:40] it's not any more, but there are only very few languages on it now [15:40] the edubuntu DVD is 2.5G, so a few extra 100K won't kill it :) [15:41] highvoltage: at least the description on http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/20110330/ makes it sounds like it should _also_ work on mac, not _only_ [15:41] pitti,ohsix> the normal amd64 can boot on UEFI-only machines, but not on Macs; amd64+mac is vice versa [15:41] because Apple screwed up their firmware [15:41] weird [15:41] :/ [15:41] ah, thanks; so it's not really a hybrid, it's an either-or [15:42] at least many common versions of Mac firmware refuse to boot from a multi-catalog ISO9660 image [15:42] so i couldn't use the amd64 image on my main computer which isn't uefi but has 64bit gear in it? [15:42] and multi-catalog is necessary to support UEFI [15:42] ohsix: unless it's a Mac, you should be fine [15:42] it's multi-catalog, so in general it should work with either BIOS and UEFI; Mac firmware is just useless [15:43] s/ and / or / [15:43] so the +mac spin just has the one catalog with the mac files on it [15:43] +mac actually means "no UEFI bits" [15:43] but I thought it would be confusing to call it +noefi or something because Macs do have EFI [15:44] hm [15:44] oh right, they call efi uefi now huh [15:44] if refit (http://refit.sourceforge.net/) works, would it be fine for Edubuntu to recommend it as a workaround on Mac systems? this also only seems to affect 64 bit, so we could also suggest using 32 bit on macs, right? [15:44] UEFI is a newer version that has a multi-vendor standard [15:44] EFI 1.x was AIUI proprietary [15:44] it doesn't just mean the old stuff they called uefi which was an efi firmware that did nothing but run legacy stuff with a bios stub [15:44] (in the sense of being specific to a particular vendor) [15:45] being intel on ia64? that's the rub, it was specified [15:45] highvoltage: sure, I'm pretty sure on the machines I remember, refit didn't work [15:45] cjwatson: ok [15:45] ohsix: some x86 machines too. and if you read what I said carefully I didn't say it wasn't specified [15:45] anyway, this is beside the point [15:46] well i was speaking to proprietary [15:46] proprietary doesn't mean unspecified [15:46] the uefi stuff i'm familiar with doesn't even try to be ufi-e, it just boots the bios thing, the and the boot time setup is a native efi application that touches the config pages [15:47] that was to say apple didn't just come up with something else called EFI independently [15:47] there are different classes specified with different levels of compatibility [15:47] I didn't say they did, but they did break various bits of the spec [15:47] such as it was [15:47] alright well don't let me distract you, i was the one that was confused [15:47] I would love amd64+mac not to need to exist, but I don't know of a way to avoid it right now, short of not supporting Mac hardware which I figure wouldn't be popular [15:48] so suffice it to say uefi says a bit more about where a vendor should stay in the lines [15:48] I'm pretty sure Apple also violate EFI 1.x, FWIW - their partitioning strategy is not as specified there [15:49] (as one example) [15:49] right [15:49] afaik it's only used for dropping firmware updates and running them at boot time, and otherwise barren (the system partition) [15:49] that's not the bit I'm referring to [15:50] I mean legacy MBR vs. protective MBR [15:50] ah [15:51] re: refit, i wonder if some little cd image or something that ran in osx then rebooted into the install couldn't be used === yofel_ is now known as yofel [15:54] to do firmware updates they drop the update in the system partition and bless it; then the firmware blesses the main thing when it's done, it'd be ugly but it could be done ;] [15:56] feel free to try to produce something portable - it's not something I'm likely to do [15:57] i don't have the hw to even begin to be messing with stuff [16:02] "Choose this to take full advantage of computers based on the AMD64 or EM64T architecture (e.g., Athlon64, Opteron, EM64T Xeon). If you have a non-64-bit processor made by AMD, or if you need full support for 32-bit code, use the Intel x86 images instead. This image is adjusted to work properly on Mac systems. [16:02] " [16:02] that sentence on http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/20110330/ sounds a bit bogus imho, since it's irrelevant whether AMD made the CPU or not [16:03] (and it's otherwise very unhuman) [16:05] highvoltage: "amd64" is the actual arch name [16:05] em64t is what intel calls it [16:07] and they mention the one confusing case of an amd processor that doesn't support 64bit, which is doubly confusing because its in the arch name _and_ some model names :P [16:14] It would be better in my opinion to have something like "This image is similar to the 64bit installer above, but exclusively supports Intel-based Macs that aren't supported by the default the Ubuntu installer." [16:15] that's something other than your original comment, no? [16:17] yes. my original comment was that the paragraph is bogus, and my last statement was a suggestion on how it could be improved.

[16:40] bah [16:40] steveire: pong (but busy); please don't ping, just ask your question :) === davidm__ is now known as davidm [16:41] pitti: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/680088 Your comment there seems irrelevant to me because you talk about going from 10.10 to 11.04 and the issue was originally about 10.04 to 10.10 upgrades. You request for testing is irrelevant to the original issue, right? [16:41] Ubuntu bug 680088 in update-manager (Ubuntu Maverick) "Upgrade fails "Can not mark 'kubuntu-desktop' for upgrade "" [Undecided,Fix committed] === davidm is now known as Guest93656 [16:42] pitti: Ah, I think Riddell clarified. [16:42] steveire: it shouldn't be; a 10.04->10.10 upgrade will use update-manager from 10.10 [16:43] steveire: (we do that because it's easier to fix stuff in the later release) [16:44] hallyn: I don't think I ever rechecked following James' fix, so I probably worked around it [16:44] steveire: so if you want to test a 10.04->10.10 (with proposed) upgrade, that'd be much appreciated [16:44] IIRC I just committed the same deltas by hand [16:44] steveire: that's "update-manager --proposed" [16:44] pitti: Ok, will do [16:44] steveire: thanks! [16:45] cjwatson: do you recall how you worked around it? Did you just create that tag? [16:45] i'm wondering if it'll break something if i tag the '-0ubuntu1' release with the 'upstream-' tag [16:45] 16:44 steveire: that's "update-manager --proposed" [16:45] err [16:45] it certainly seems wrong [16:45] 16:44 IIRC I just committed the same deltas by hand [16:45] I don't remember any more than that, sorry [16:45] oh there i see it :) [16:45] thanks [16:46] I don't think I gave a monkey's about the upstream-* tags [16:46] all right, i'm just doing it without bzr for now. thanks :) [16:46] all I wanted was to get the PPA uploads represented in bzr somewhere [16:46] hallyn: oh, I did it in bzr, I just didn't use bzr import-dsc to do it. you can just successively apply diffs, add files, and commit ... [16:46] (assuming you're starting from an existing branch) [16:47] existing branch, but huge delta. [17:04] mvo, does squid deb proxy work with extras.ubuntu.com?

[18:04] Why is a 16 character hostname limit sensible? [18:04] zul: this is a limitation in netbios, not linux. [18:05] ScottK: indeed [18:06] I think this is best solved where the problem arises, in Samba. I can talk to another machine with more than 16 characters in its hostname using every other network protocol I can think of. [18:06] equally, you can set the hostname outside of the installer, so even if we did this in ubiquity, the problem would remain. [18:07] ev: right its a problem with netbios...so something like print a warning or something [18:08] RFC 1123 says "Host software MUST handle host names of up to 63 characters and SHOULD handle host names of up to 255 characters." [18:08] ScottK: right ill get on changing the netbios protocol === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk [18:09] I understand the problem. === deryck[lunch] is now known as deryck [18:09] * ScottK imagines a netbios equivalent for hostnames of 8.3 long/short filenames. === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates [18:15] cjwatson: hi, I just tried to upload a new linux-backports-modules-2.6.38 but it was rejected. I assume it's due to the fact it still needs added to the proper ACL's first before I can pull the trigger. [18:17] sure, I'll do that [18:18] glatzor: it looks like bug 707490 might not be fixed [18:18] Launchpad bug 707490 in aptdaemon (Ubuntu Natty) "aptd crashed with UnicodeDecodeError in _set_status_details(): 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xd0 in position 0: ordinal not in range(128)" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/707490 [18:18] ogasawara: try now [18:18] ScottK, Your quote of RFC 1123, is that in regards to zul's suggestion of ubiquity limiting the hostname to 16 chars - or a bug in the netbios protocol? [18:18] Yes. === hallyn is now known as hallyn_afk [18:19] ScottK, it was a xor question. [18:19] Sorry, that's how the result parsed. [18:19] Daviey: How do you pronounce "xor"? [18:20] soren, I'm not exclusive either way, but usually x-or [18:20] Daviey: Just wondering since you said "a xor" and not "an xor". [18:20] Daviey: Nice pun, though :) [18:21] soren, I'll make sure i check my grammar before making comment next time, thanks for the hint :). [18:21] * soren has his red marker ready [18:22] Daviey: Seriously though, I was genuinely curious if there was a way to pronounce it that would make it an "a" word rather than an "an" word :) [18:22] * soren wanders off again [18:23] :P [18:23] cjwatson: thanks, I'm able to upload now [18:23] soren: I've been known to say something like a hard "zor" [18:23] I can pronounce initial-consonant "x" [18:26] soren, cjwatson i've always pronounced it ecks-or [18:27] http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/xor [18:27] of course, i realize that people pronounce __init__ as "dunder-init" instead of the way i say it: "under under init" [18:43] hi cjwatson, could you approve my e-mail on appdeveloper week on the ubuntu-devel moderation queue? thanks!

[19:28] broder: it may actually bypass it altogether [19:29] broder: that check seems to be on the 16-bit boot path [19:30] cjwatson, it's looking more like we will need the isc-dhcp patch... Would you nack the idea of me uploading it now, and submitting it upstream concurrently? === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk [19:30] cjwatson: can grub theoretically do that detection? :) [19:31] Daviey: as long as you're on the hook for dealing with any regressions ... [19:32] broder: GRUB can certainly detect CPU capabilities ('cpuid -l'); what I'm not sure if it can do is detect what the kernel it's booting needs, since I'm not seeing it in the kernel header [19:32] cjwatson: for my use case, i'm ok with hard-coding "is this a 32-bit cpu" [19:33] 'if cpuid -l' or 'if ! cpuid -l' as appropriate [19:33] whoa.. ubuntu-docs bzr branch is a little bit ridiculous ..
