| smoser | is there a limit on size of value for a debconf key ? | 10:35 |
| cjwatson | smoser: not formally; you will run into slightly less-tested code in cdebconf if you cause any debconf protocol line to be greater than 1024 bytes | 10:42 |
| cjwatson | smoser: but any limit is a bug | 10:42 |

| udoprog | regarding lightdm, how do you configure it to run on a single screen (or any X configuration) in a nice manner? | 11:18 |
| udoprog | do you specifically override the X command to use or are there any facilities to handle this? | 11:20 |
| tjaalton | udoprog: write an xorg.conf if you need to force things for the login screen | 11:23 |

| GunnarHj | robert_ancell: Hi Robert, do have a minute to talk about lightdm and language chooser? | 12:29 |
| robert_ancell | GunnarHj, sure | 12:29 |
| GunnarHj | robert_ancell: Did you read my latest comment on bug 793366? | 12:30 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 793366 in lightdm (Ubuntu) "Sets $LANG to invalid value "de"" [Undecided,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/793366 | 12:30 |
| ogasawara | cjwatson: apw plans to link up with you next week re: overlayfs | 12:32 |
| robert_ancell | GunnarHj, yes, from what I'm hearing though there's not a requirement for a language selector at the greeter as such, but more of a requirement to be able to run from a fixed subset of languages. I think this can be better achieved using the sessions as this only gives the user one choice | 12:35 |
| GunnarHj | robert_ancell: A fixed subset of languages? But isn't that just what a language chooser would display? I.e. the translations in the languages of interest. | 12:38 |
| GunnarHj | robert_ancell: Has the matter been discussed recently in the desktop team or elsewhere? I don't think I'm the only one who regret that the chooser has been dropped in GDM. | 12:40 |
| robert_ancell | GunnarHj, yes, but you don't need all combinations. For the majority of users they will never use the language option (and it is something that can be accidentally changed). The use case that I have heard of seems to be non-english speakers wanting to switch to english. | 12:40 |
| pitti | jdstrand, cyphermox: is the ufw profile support for https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/desktop-o-desktop-network-enhancements still on the plan for oneiric, or sohuld we postpone this? | 12:40 |
| cyphermox | pitti: postpone, I think | 12:40 |
| robert_ancell | GunnarHj, the design of the Oneiric greeter (done by the Canonical design team) does not have a langauge selector. | 12:40 |
| pitti | it's currently marked for a2, which is rather impossible now, I guess | 12:40 |
| AnAnt | could someone sponsor LP #801884 | 12:41 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 801884 in debhelper (Ubuntu) "Candidate revision debhelper 8.9.0ubuntu1" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/801884 | 12:41 |
| cyphermox | pitti: yes, espcially the UI parts... but I guess that doesn't block working on getting UFW to have the necessary bits | 12:41 |
| pitti | moved to a3 for now, and if it doesn't land by then, we'll move it to p | 12:42 |
| jdstrand | pitti: I do plan to have the ufw specific support for oneiric, but that is probably going to be alpha-3 | 12:42 |
| pitti | jdstrand: great, thanks; so I milestoned it there then | 12:42 |
| jdstrand | but if no one is working on the UI, then there is a high chance I'll backburner it as well | 12:43 |
| jdstrand | pitti: thanks :) | 12:43 |
| robert_ancell | GunnarHj, I'm updating the bug with more information | 12:43 |
| GunnarHj | robert_ancell: I'm sure that the non-english speakers are more inclined to appreciate the feature than English speakers. But ... Don't you think that most of those 200 miljon Ubuntu users that was mentioned recently will belong to the former group? | 12:44 |
| robert_ancell | GunnarHj, the important point here is the ability to use their session in the appropriate language, not to have a specific UI component. A combo box is a very clumsy way of setting your session language | 12:45 |
| GunnarHj | robert_ancell: Think I disagree on that. Personally I think that the Natty GDM approach is quite ok. | 12:47 |
| GunnarHj | robert_ancell: And even if it wasn't included in the spec.: We are a few who would like to see it. Including it wouldn't hurt the rest, would it? | 12:49 |
| GunnarHj | robert_ancell: And it won't require much additional work to get it in place. | 12:50 |

| Quibus | hi all | 22:05 |
| Quibus | I just asked this question on #ubuntu: | 22:05 |
| Quibus | I'm wondering why ubuntu misses version 0.8.1. of the openMSX package (while it is in Debian for months already). | 22:05 |
| Quibus | Strangely enough, the GUI of 0.8.1 is available (openmsx-catapult) | 22:05 |
| Quibus | Looks like something went wrong? | 22:05 |
| Quibus | openmsx-catapult is useless without openmsx | 22:05 |
| nigelb | Quibus: In oneiric? | 22:06 |
| Ampelbein | Quibus: most likely it didn't get merged yet | 22:06 |
| Quibus | nigelb: I checked this: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openmsx/ | 22:07 |
| Quibus | and this: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openmsx-catapult | 22:07 |
| tumbleweed | Quibus: it's generally up to the previous uploader to do a merge | 22:07 |
| Quibus | 0.8.1 package was autosynced on 30 April | 22:07 |
| tumbleweed | if we modified a package in Ubuntu, we need to manually merge those modifications into future versions | 22:07 |
| tumbleweed | only un-modified packages can be auto-synced | 22:08 |
| Quibus | How can I see if it is modified? | 22:08 |
| bdrung | Quibus: if 'ubuntu' is in the version number | 22:08 |
| Quibus | It is for 0.8.0 | 22:09 |
| bdrung | including the debian revision -> 0.8.0-1ubuntu1 | 22:09 |
| Quibus | ah, Matthias fixed something there | 22:09 |
| bdrung | Quibus: you could ask him (doko on IRC) to merge the new version | 22:10 |
| Quibus | doko_: hi :) Interested to merge openMSX 0.8.1 into O? | 22:10 |
| tumbleweed | of course anyone else could merge it too, but it's probably not on their todo lists... | 22:10 |
| Quibus | It should be quite easy, but OK | 22:11 |
| bdrung | Quibus: if he doesn't want to do it, feel free to do it yourself | 22:12 |
| bdrung | tumbleweed: btw, distro-info passed all barriers | 22:12 |
| tumbleweed | bdrung: I saw, \o/ | 22:12 |
| Quibus | bdrung: I'm the upstream developer... I don't like to take care of package management for a kazillion distros out there... | 22:13 |
| Quibus | I'd rather focus on the actual software | 22:14 |
| bdrung | Quibus: as upstream dev, do you have fixed the inline assembler that is causing the problem with thumb2 (bug #635413)? | 22:16 |

| tumbleweed | bdrung: that's the ubuntu way: "break it now, fix it later" :P | 22:30 |

| bdrung | tumbleweed: break it now, let someone else fix it later | 22:31 |
| bdrung | :P | 22:31 |
| Quibus | tumbleweed: yes, as I said, we didn't fix it, because we didn't have a working cross compiler with thumb2 support to test it | 22:31 |
| Quibus | Only one for arm926 | 22:32 |
| tumbleweed | Quibus: I'm not using a cross compiler but a full-blown ubuntu armel chroot, and qemu-user-static. You could create such an environment by running "pbuilder-dist armel create" | 22:33 |
| tumbleweed | anyway, seeing as I've looked at this, I'll merge it now | 22:34 |
