[00:03] <lool> cjwatson: natty deboostrap with oneiric kernels
[00:04] <lool> cjwatson: indeed, I have a Thinkpad  :-)
[00:04] <lool> it's even natty-release, and not even natty-updates -- I've setup an USB key with a stable userspace to bisect a kernel problem because I got tired of hitting random boot issues with my oneiric setup  :-/
[00:05] <lool> cjwatson: Thanks a lot for clarifying, I shall have tried on oneiric to check this bug, but it wasn't the main track I was following
[06:37] <TheMuso> ev: I know its probably a bit late, but I'd like you to look this merge proposal over please, for my a11y profile work. I'd thought you would have attended to it by now, given that its a merge proposal and I added you as a reviewer: If all ok, I'm happy to merge in the morning. Thanks. https://code.launchpad.net/~themuso/ubiquity/maybe-ubiquity-a11y-profiles/+merge/70516
[08:51] <CIA-37> ubiquity: evand * r4803 trunk/configure.ac: Drop checking for pygtk defs
[08:52] <ev> TheMuso: I've been holding off on merges until after I landed the PyGI branch, as it was fairly invasive.
[08:52] <ev> will look at it momentarily
[09:09] <CIA-37> ubiquity: evand * r4804 trunk/ (d-i/update-control debian/control): Explicitly depend on python-cairo for SegmentedBar since we no longer implicitly depend on it via python-gtk2
[09:37] <cjwatson> lool: hm, actually that ought to have been fixed in natty, bug 701111
[09:37] <ubot2> Launchpad bug 701111 in grub2 "corrupted and flashing grub screen on T400" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/701111
[09:38] <cjwatson> lool: if you can still reproduce it in oneiric, let me know, I'd like to debug it
[10:06] <CIA-37> ubiquity: evand * r4805 trunk/ (5 files in 4 dirs): Drop old wireless manager bits.
[10:40] <ogra_> cjwatson, so to get ac100 images (which means i need an initrd, tarball and vmlinuz as live-build output to post-process with debian-cd) i added the ac100 subarch to live-build/auto/config ... the kernel is in universe, can i just override COMPONENTS and IMAGEFORMAT in the armel+ac100 subarch case statement or would that break ?
[10:41] <ogra_> seems infinity added IMAGEFORMAT=plain to get tarballs
[10:41] <cjwatson> you should arrange to pass the correct IMAGEFORMAT in the first place.  As for COMPONENTS, I don't know, try it
[10:42] <ogra_> well, i dont want to use a new flavour but would like to re-use -preinstalled
[10:42] <ogra_> which defaults to IMAGEFORMAT=ext3 atm
[10:42] <cjwatson> so make that be architecture-sensitive
[10:43] <cjwatson> or rather subarch-sensitive
[10:43] <cjwatson> in fact, it already is subarch-sensitive!
[10:43] <cjwatson> it's not keyed off preinstalled at all
[10:43] <ogra_> hmm, i fail to find it, is that debian-cd or cdimage ?
[10:43] <cjwatson> cdimage/bin/buildlive
[10:43] <ogra_> ah, k
[10:43]  * ogra_ goes and looks 
[10:45] <ogra_> geez, grepping for IMAGEFORMAT indeed couldnt help there :P
[10:54] <CIA-37> ubiquity: evand * r4806 trunk/d-i/update-control: Add python-dbus to build-deps for testing the network-manager widget.
[11:02] <ogra_> "--initramfs none" only means it will not modify but still produce an initrd file, right ?
[11:08] <cjwatson> I honestly don't remember right now
[11:08] <cjwatson> grep live-build code for LB_INITRAMFS to see what it does :)
[11:27]  * ogra_ does so, thanks 
[11:27] <ogra_> but with the bits i have now, i should be able to also do a testbuild and just see :)
[11:27] <ogra_> just waiting for the latest upload to build
[12:58] <cjwatson> ev: http://people.canonical.com/~cjwatson/tmp/ipv6-wpa-mini.iso
[12:59] <cjwatson> testing of WPAness would be awesome
[13:01] <ev> cjwatson: on it now
[13:12] <ev> ah, so this isn't going to work for me
[13:12] <ev> due to lack of broadcom support
[13:14] <cjwatson> doh
[13:14] <ev> apols
[13:14] <cjwatson> oh well, thanks for trying
[13:14] <ev> sure thing
[13:48] <davmor2> cjwatson: Is it a live cd or alternate stylee?
[13:49] <cjwatson> live
[13:49] <cjwatson> er
[13:49] <cjwatson> sorry, wrong context
[13:49] <cjwatson> that's a d-i image
[13:49] <cjwatson> netboot style
[13:51] <CIA-37> ubiquity: evand * r4807 trunk/ (5 files in 4 dirs): (log message trimmed)
[13:51] <CIA-37> ubiquity: * Add support for launching high contrast, screen reader, keyboard modifiers,
[13:51] <CIA-37> ubiquity:  and onscreen keyboard accessibility profiles in maybe-ubiquity mode, high
[13:51] <CIA-37> ubiquity:  contrast and screen reader profiles being launcheable either from an
[13:51] <CIA-37> ubiquity:  indicator, or via keyboard shortcut, the rest of the profiles available
[13:53] <CIA-37> netcfg: cjwatson * r1266 ubuntu/debian/ (changelog control): Use isc-dhcp-client-udeb on all architectures.
[13:54] <davmor2> cjwatson: May I suggest having a word with stgraber when he arrives I believe he may be in a position to help on both parts, I can only help with ipv6 tunneling only ipv4 on home network and isp I'm afraid
[13:54] <CIA-37> tasksel: cjwatson * r1474 ubuntu/ (3 files in 2 dirs): Update Ubuntu tasks from seeds, adding ubuntu-usb and ubuntu-usb-live.
[13:57] <cjwatson> davmor2: I'm actually only concerned about getting the WPA bits tested
[13:57] <cjwatson> I tested the IPv6 changes a while back, although not directly in this build
[13:58] <cjwatson> wow, this was good refactoring, apparently the addition of WPA and IPv6 support made netcfg's udebs *smaller*
[13:58] <cjwatson> although admittedly brings in some honking new dependencies
[13:58] <davmor2> cjwatson: in that case I maybe able to help you out after a short trip to drop the mrs off at the hospital for an appointment
[13:58] <cjwatson> cool
[13:58] <CIA-37> netcfg: cjwatson * r1267 ubuntu/debian/changelog: releasing version 1.68ubuntu1
[14:00] <CIA-37> tasksel: cjwatson * r1475 ubuntu/debian/changelog: releasing version 2.88ubuntu8
[14:02] <ev> cjwatson: network-manager-gnome-udeb ;) ?
[14:03] <ev> I feel quite weird about adding an icon theme to the build deps of ubiqutiy
[14:03] <cjwatson> not *quite* that honking
[14:04] <CIA-37> ubiquity: evand * r4808 trunk/d-i/update-control: Add gnome-icon-theme to ubiquity's build-deps. It's needed for the network-manager widget tests.
[14:04] <cjwatson> isc-dhcp-client is a lot fatter than busybox udhcpc though :-/
[14:05]  * cjwatson goes to see if he can reduce the size of the oneiric lynch mob by updating ntfs-3g
[14:10] <stgraber> davmor2: morning
[14:27] <davmor2> stgraber: morning dude :)
[14:41] <bdmurray> cjwatson: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/818059
[14:41] <ubot2> Ubuntu bug 818059 in ubiquity "installation from live usb system crashes while installing language packs" [Undecided,Incomplete]
[14:45] <cjwatson> ev: ^- I think it might make sense to call apport_python_hook.apport_excepthook in cases where we've caught and logged an exception
[14:45] <ev> cjwatson: okay
[14:45] <cjwatson> I think
[14:57] <davmor2> cjwatson: I'm assuming this should be auto-detecting a wireless link correct or do I need to set it manually?
[14:59] <cjwatson> I think it ought to but if it doesn't that may be unrelated
[15:02] <davmor2> cjwatson: well that might be an issue then neither of my machines are setting up a network the cd is only looking at eth0 and no wireless is setup
[15:04] <cjwatson> what chipset?
[15:04] <davmor2> cjwatson: ralink 5390 and ath5k
[15:05] <cjwatson> do you happen to know if it needs firmware?
[15:06] <davmor2> cjwatson: no both work from alpha3 live cd
[15:06] <davmor2> cjwatson: the 5390 is setup in the kernel as of 3.0.7
[15:07] <cjwatson> live cd> not an answer :)
[15:08] <davmor2> cjwatson: the 5390 is a kernel driver in the kernel,  as far as I'm aware the ath5k is the same but I'm not sure on that one
[15:09] <davmor2> cjwatson: it is an experimental driver that got enabled in .7 kernel after I complain there was no support for it
[15:10] <cjwatson> right, but it matters whether or not it needs firmware because the kernel would have to ship those files in an appropriate udeb
[15:10] <cjwatson> never mind, I'll look myself
[15:10] <cjwatson> it may not even ship the driver in a udeb yet, which would entirely explain the problem
[15:14] <davmor2> cjwatson: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/815064 is the bug for the ralink 5390 I don't know if that would speed things up for you
[15:14] <ubot2> Ubuntu bug 815064 in linux "No driver for the Network controller: Ralink corp. Device 5390" [Medium,Fix released]
[15:15] <cjwatson> the kernel doesn't ship either of those drivers in suitable udebs.  I'll send a patch to the kernel team to fix that.  thanks
[15:17] <davmor2> cjwatson: so in that case I can't help you :(  the only dongles I have are ath5k or broadcom :(
[15:20] <cjwatson> well, shouldn't take too long to get it fixed
[15:22] <davmor2> cjwatson: feel free to give me a ping I'll happily test on both laptops for you once you have it up and running :)
[15:22] <cjwatson> col, ta
[15:22] <cjwatson> er, cool
[15:55] <CIA-37> ubiquity: evand * r4809 trunk/src/Makefile.am: Actually build in the webcam dir
[16:23] <CIA-37> debian-installer: cjwatson * r1322 lucid-proposed/ (9 files in 3 dirs): Move maverick-* images to 2.6.35-30 kernels.
[16:24] <CIA-37> debian-installer: cjwatson * r1323 lucid-proposed/debian/changelog: releasing version 20081029ubuntu102.11
[16:42] <CIA-37> ubiquity: evand * r4810 trunk/ (8 files in 7 dirs): Update Makefiles.
[17:13] <jibel> cjwatson, I tried ipv6-wpa-mini.iso . No luck with a centrino wireless-N 1000, driver iwlagn is not on the image.
[19:03] <cjwatson> jibel: I'll add that to the list for my kernel patch then :-/
[19:48] <RoAkSoAx> cjwatson: howdy!! I'm hitting this "The bzcat command is not available on the system" when installing oneiric from the mini iso, any ideas?
[20:18] <cjwatson> grr, not this again, I got that fixed in Debian ...
[20:18]  * cjwatson goes grepping to see which package has screwed up
[20:20] <cjwatson> less and libpng, apparently
[20:20] <cjwatson> what a surprise, Anibal maintains both
[20:26] <cjwatson> RoAkSoAx: thanks for the heads-up.  fixes uploaded
[20:42] <jibel> cjwatson, I copied the driver and firmware from another system, loaded it and re-ran the network configuration step
[20:42] <jibel> It tries to configure eth0, fails (unplugged) then tries wlan0
[20:42] <jibel> After filing wireless and proxy settings, the connection is established successfully and the system starts downloading packages.
[20:42] <jibel> cjwatson, looks good, thanks for this feature!
[20:48] <jibel> with WPA of course.
[21:06] <RoAkSoAx> cjwatson: cool thanks!!
[22:49] <TheMuso> ev: Many thanks, and understandable.
