jcrigbyinfinity, ping?01:43
infinityjcrigby: Sup?01:58
jcrigbyinfinity, I had a question really stupid question google did not help01:58
jcrigbybut I figured it out01:58
infinityNow I'm curious. :)01:59
jcrigbyto target -proposed in an upload you just put the -proposed in the changelong01:59
jcrigbyduh01:59
jcrigbyoneiric-proposed01:59
jcrigbyI didn't know that01:59
infinityThis is me not laughing.02:00
jcrigbynow I am02:00
jcrigbyit finally occured to me when I saw some -proposed names listed with other release names and then I realized its just a different release sorta02:02
dashhmm. trying to set up my new mx53 with oneiric but all of these instructions seem to assume you're flashing stuff onto the microsd card instead of installing from, like, the same machine.02:02
dashis this possible at all? :)02:02
dashor do I need to get a second computer with an sd reader involved02:02
infinitydash: If you have a micro->regular SD adaptor, you can write to the SD from the same machine. :P02:02
jcrigbydash, quick start has two card slots02:02
infinitydash: But our installer is meant to install from microSD, yes.02:03
infinityjcrigby: You can only boot from micro.02:03
dashsorry, I mean: it's booted from the microsd card02:04
dashi don't see how to install a new kernel from there, though.02:04
dashthe postinst script for the kernel package fails02:05
infinityInstalling a new kernel on the Freescale-provided image is non-trivial.02:05
dashaaah.02:05
infinityIt's sitting in raw unpartitioned space.02:05
dashokay that makes sense.02:05
infinityYou're better off using our image, which is much more sane. :P02:05
dashso i shouild reflash it with a linaro image and then do things.02:05
dashgreat, now i get it. :D02:05

infinityOh.  We don't do mx5 for server.02:06

MrCurious_11.10 looks pretty. painfully slow on SD04:11
MrCurious_so far though, its working nice04:12
MrCurious_sound service went belly up04:16
MrCurious_sending a report ... slowly04:16
MrCurious_obsolite package installed libodio04:17
MrCurious_upgrade it and re-try04:17
MrCurious_wonder if its easy to turn off video out on panda board to save some power04:30
infinityjcrigby: Any reason that u-boot went to -proposed?04:49
infinityjcrigby: If we want those 4460 fixes on images, we want them in the release pocket.  Or did you figure it's too risky?04:50
MrCurious_11.10 is giving me troubles. refusing to install omap4 add ons04:52
MrCurious_got it installed installing the omap4 meta package from a shell05:23
infinityNot that there's anything in the PPA for oneiric yet.05:42
infinityOH.  That reminds me, we still point at the natty PPA.05:42
infinityMust fix.05:42
infinityAlmost forgot.05:42
MrCurious_that did not end well05:44
infinityrsalveti: I'm changing the default ti-omap4-ppa entry to point to oneiric.  Would be really nice if there was a metapackage there to install.  Hint, hint.05:44
MrCurious_reboot and now i am console only05:44
MrCurious_yeah05:44
MrCurious_you mean in teh gui, the meta package that it cant find05:44
infinityMrCurious_: The ti-omap4-extras may have been a bad idea.05:44
MrCurious_may may not be the right word05:45
MrCurious_wanted to test usb speed05:45
infinityJust uninstall the packages and reboot.05:45
MrCurious_but installing the omap addons borked it all05:45
infinityUSB speed has nothing to do with the ti-omap stuff.05:45
MrCurious_but gui speed does05:45
infinityLittle bit.05:45
MrCurious_they really want to both be there for my usb cam speed test05:45
infinityBut such is life, until we get oneiric-compatible packages.05:45
infinityWhich better be soon.05:46
MrCurious_now i wonder if 10.04 has the usb fix05:46
infinityNot that I know of.05:46
MrCurious_i think 10.04 does05:46
MrCurious_but last i tried it, it had its own issues05:46
MrCurious_anyone here know how to disable video out on pandaboard? i can champion this platform at work if it can go under 2 watts on average05:47
infinityNo idea.05:48
MrCurious_wonder how close the omap4 add ons are to being compatable05:52
infinityI'm going to go with "not very".05:54
infinityBut we've been promised (repeatedly) that all that binary mess would be available for oneiric.05:54
twb"disable video" -- cut the pins :P05:54
infinityI need to chase that up in the next week before release.05:54

=== doko_ is now known as doko
infinityjcrigby: While I'm pinging you with overnight questions, linux-meta-linaro is horribly out of date, and even if it wasn't, it'll not be vaguely broken because two linaro sources (s5pv310 and u8500) haven't been updated to 3.0.0-1007.907:00
infinityjcrigby: Can we either drop things you're no longer supporting, up upload new versions of those? :P07:00
twbAre those packages the linaro kernel, built with stock ubuntu GCC? or built with linaro gcc?07:01
infinityUbuntu GCC is Linaro GCC, more or less.07:08
infinityWe pull from them.07:08
twbWhat, even for non-arm people?07:09
infinityI'd have to look again, but I imagine doko has a massive from_linaro patch in the sources that's only applied on ARM builds. :P07:09
twbSo if I'm sitting on an amd64 lucid host, that *won't* include linaro code when I just run "cc foo", right?07:09
dokoinfinity, no, applied everywhere07:10
infinityChecking that suspicion right now.07:10
infinitydoko: Thanks.07:10
infinitytwb: I was wrong. :007:10
infinity:)07:10
twbdoko: is that just ubuntu, or is that also debian?07:10
dokoubuntu only07:10
twbOK.07:10
twbI have been building u-boot images with Debian armhf and armel chroots, and they don't do anything when I flash them, so my next step is to try linaro gcc07:11
twbI guess I can do that from an ubuntu chroot instead, which will be much easier than having to download some cross-compiler tarball blob from linaro07:11
dokoDebian armel is armv4, so there might be differences. armhf has the same configury07:12
twbdoko: I don't understand.  Are you saying that if Debian armhf gcc generates a broken u-boot.bin, then Ubuntu armel gcc is likely to also generate a broken u-boot.bin?07:13
dokotwb, I say that the configure command line is the same, ubuntu still has hardening enabled. I didn't check for anything else07:15
twbOK07:15
twbBut the linaro patches might contain some workarounds for some funky errata on my tegra system, so I should still try it?07:16
dokoI didn't follow the start of the discussion. sure, you can try it. or you could rebuild the gcc-4.6 debian package, enabling the linaro changes07:20
twbOK, thanks07:21

xranbyi tested the daily  imx5 image on a imx53 quickstart board yesterday.   some premissons are probably set wrong on that image , oem-setup completed sucessfully   but  what i observed was the following : 1. users cant run dmesg     2. dhclient cant set the routing table thus all networking was broken10:16
xranbyogra_: GrueMaster: do you test the imx5 image regulary?10:17
ogra_xranby, janimo does, not sure how regular though10:18
xranbyok i will retest with todays image as well..10:18
janimoxranby, I tested an image after beta2 but not regularly10:19
janimoI saw the same issues - I thought dmesg permission was a new ubuntu default so did not pay attention10:19
janimoIIRC there were discussions about turning it off. But I did not see it on other boards so likely a bug then10:20
xranbyjanimo: for me gui was.. dead slow..   possibly related to sdcard performance10:20
janimoand also I saw no network on first boot/install10:20
janimoxranby, both GrueMaster and I found it very very slow10:20
xranbyjanimo: for me the netfork information tool in the upper corner listed all obtained dhcp settings  but  it failed to actually setup the system wide global routing table and default gw10:21
janimoour kernel may be buggy, linaro has more than one mx53 flavoured kernel, we may have picked one that has been less tested. I think they are at 3.0 now with mx510:21
xranbyafter i entered the routing table manually network worked flawlessly10:21
xranbyjanimo: dot he board need some driver pack to enhance gui?10:22
xranbyi think the lucid image that got shipped with the board was quite quick10:22
xranbyand snappy10:22
xranbyfor gui stuff10:22
janimoxranby, indeed, that factory image is impressively fast10:26
janimounfortunately freescale does not distribute their closed source graphics stack10:26
xranbyoh.. :( how sad10:26
janimoso one cannot freely use it10:26
janimoindeed10:27
xranbyi thought they did10:27
janimoonly for commercial partners I think and without right to redistribution10:27

BlInK311hey guys, I was having a problem with oneiric on the pandaboard last night.  after it went through the system configuration it just looped back to system config.  any ideas?12:22
ogra_BlInK311, talk to GrueMaster (once he is up (~2h i guess)) he seems to see that as well, nobody else can reproduce it though12:26
ogra_would be good to know if you guys use the same Sd cards or some such12:26
BlInK311i used a sandisk 4gb class 6 card.  I think it was an extreme 3 or something.  Ill can double check it if you need12:28
ogra_yesm double check with GrueMaster12:31
BlInK311will do12:32
BlInK311i also loaded it onto a uSD card for my beagle xm but didnt get a chance to boot it up last night12:37
ogra_heh, hrw are you worried the best-buy offer wont persist until you are in orlando ?12:37
ogra_i guess you could just buy them there12:37
hrwogra_: last time, when hp touchpads went to 99$, they were out in 2-3 days if not less12:40
ogra_hrw, there are likely more flyers thna touchpads in the world ... but i get what you mean12:41

ogra_well, i'm running 3.2 here12:58
hrwogra_: matter of view12:58

ogra_with a new update pending apparently12:59
ogra_(asus is really fast wrt android updates)12:59

xranbyits a quite intence cpu stress benchmark.. both cores running at 100% + disk io13:06

BlInK311GrueMaster. you on?14:39
GrueMasterI am.  Coffee isn't.14:40
BlInK311last night I had an issue with oneiric looping through the initial system config on the pandaboard.  i heard you were the only other one who had this issue14:41
BlInK311did you figure out what caused this?14:42
GrueMasterNo, I haven't.  I can reproduce it on several systems with several different SD cards though.  The only thing I have found that seems to get around it a little is to edit /etc/fstab on the rootfs and add "discard" to the options for mounting /14:43
GrueMasterIt slows down execution a bit, and you need to remove it after oem-config is finished.14:44
BlInK311hmm... i was using a sandisk extreme 3 4gb class 6 card.  dont know if you had this on this card14:45
ogra_GrueMaster, slows down ?14:45
ogra_it definitely should speed up :)14:45
GrueMasterNot that particular card, but on several others from 4G-16G, class 4, 6, and 10.14:46
ogra_TRIM (disacard) limits the amount fof needed writes14:46
ogra_though your HW (the card) needs to support it14:46
GrueMasterogra_: Yes.  it slows down a little.  Not sure why.14:46
ogra_else its a noop14:46
ogra_blame the kernel :)14:47
GrueMasterThat may be it.14:47
ogra_we had massive probs with TRIM on sandisk with the ac10014:47
MartynHow did we miss getting openmpi 1.5.3(or 4) into the repositories?14:47
ogra_fi our kernel misses a patch on omap4 then you might get issues14:47
Martynopenmpi 1.4 is broken on ARM, and only 1.5.3 works14:47
ogra_Martyn, ask debian and the person who didnt file a bug about the breakage :)14:47
Nekoogra_, is there any way to find out if the card supports discard?14:48
ogra_dunno14:48
* GrueMaster forages for coffee.14:48
ogra_the probs we had was with an eMMC for that it was easy to find ourt14:48
Nekomaybe I just try BLKDISCARD and see if the ioctl fails miserably?14:49
BlInK311ill give the "discard" a try tonigh and see if it affects it14:50
ogra_NCommander, did you see my ping above15:00
NCommanderogra_: no, I just got up15:00
ogra_would really help if you regulary updated the bug in times where others rely on your info15:00

AustereGrimogra_ i'm looking to start working on getting ubuntu-arm on the toshiba thrive tablet. do you have any tips on where to start?15:03
GrueMasterogra_: Both NCommander and I have been working hard on figuring out Banshee.  I finally found the point of exception, but not the calling function.15:03
ogra_AustereGrim, for the rootfs i would start with ubuntu-core15:03
AustereGrimok15:03
GrueMasterAt this point, I think it would be best to dump banshee as I don't think we can get a fix anytime soon (today).15:04
ogra_GrueMaster, lets talk about tech stuff in the meeting, the point was that deadline for RC (and the possible switch to RB) was this morning EU time15:04
GrueMasterI was never given a deadline beyond Thursday.15:05
GrueMasterNo time.15:05
AustereGrimare you guys currently working with Oneiric for arm builds? (to replace android systems)15:08
AustereGrimor should I attempt work with a previous release?15:09
infinityAustereGrim: Is the Thrive using a kernel and bootloader similar to ac100?15:12
AustereGrimI'm not sure, I haven't touched the ac10015:12
* ogra_ doubts that 15:12
ogra_even the transformer needs its own kernel, despite the fact that they are the same SoC15:13
AustereGrimI doubt it too... but I do have the release of the source from toshiba15:13
ogra_well, start with ubuntu-core for a rootfs and make your kernel and bootloader work with it15:13
AustereGrimok... sounds like a found starting point. I'm new to this game, so it's not going to be natural to me.15:14
ogra_well, all you need is kernel and bootloader ... and the kernel buiult with options ubuntu userspace understands15:15
AustereGrimok15:16
AustereGrimSo I've downloaded the oneiric core daily build, is this where I should start with?15:22
ogra_thats your userspacce15:24
AustereGrimok I get that... and need to build a kernel that boots to this userspace15:25
ogra_right15:26
AustereGrimand that would be based on the linux kernel that toshiba has provided15:26
ogra_right15:27
AustereGrimok, I think I see where I need to go. =)15:27
AustereGrimThanks ogra_ I might be starting some work on this this weekend. I know I'm going to need you advice along the way here.15:29

infinityjcrigby: Two things.  Why don't linux-linaro-s5pv310 and linux-linaro-u8500 match vexpress, omap, and mx51?16:05
GrueMasterThe main one I need to look at writing up is the bare metal automation testing.  Not sure what to categorize it under, as it affects more than just arm.16:05
infinityjcrigby: And if and when they do, we need meta-linaro updated.16:05
infinityjcrigby: (If you have no intention of keeping all 5 sources in ABI lockstep, then the meta needs to be split out)16:06
jcrigbyinfinity, I added them way back and they were never used for anything so finally removed them from source16:06
infinityjcrigby: Oh, if those flavours are dead, you could always inform us and have them removed from the archive.16:06
infinityjcrigby: Happy to purge them with fire.16:07
jcrigbythat would be great16:07
infinityjcrigby: Then we'd just need a meta upload that drops those, and bumps the ABI for the other 3.16:07
infinity(Pretty please)16:07
jcrigbywill do that right now16:07
infinity\o/16:07

AustereGrimLPhas I don't understand what I'm looking at. :-P16:35
LPhasAustereGrim, you are looking at this https://github.com/utz/SYNEplayer16:35
LPhasi made a small application that let you play several videos in synchrony16:36
AustereGrimi see16:36
LPhasover TCP/IP network, not only on the same machine like the screenshoots suggests16:37
AustereGrimah16:37
AustereGrimoh16:37
AustereGrimusing multicast? or direct connection?16:37
LPhasUDP direct connection16:39
LPhas"connection"16:39
LPhaswell basically it uses Network Clocks that are an already available feature of gstreamer16:39
AustereGrimhrm...16:40
AustereGrimI'm trying to think of it's use in something..16:42
AustereGrimbut my requirement for it has been depreciated16:42
LPhaswell it'll be used for a sort of "fake acquarium" on a cruise liner16:44
AustereGrimYeah, no I see it's use in digital signage16:44
LPhasAustereGrim, "digital signage"?16:44
AustereGrimuh...16:45
AustereGrimlike displays that all show the same thing16:45
LPhasoh16:45
AustereGrimeither a video or just text16:45
AustereGrimmainly a public display that shows information about a topic (area, company, product)16:45
LPhasAustereGrim, oh, teah well, of course this is an application16:46
LPhasi wish i'd have a client for this XD16:46
LPhaswould be the quickest job of my life XD16:46
AustereGrimif it works well in low bandwidth environments, and doesn't rely on broadcast (packets) then there is a use for it. but our need for it has been depreciated like I said . =(16:47
LPhastoo bad :(16:47
infinityjcrigby: Thanks for the uploads.16:47
LPhasit doens't rely on broadcast, i didn't tested the bandwith requirements16:48
LPhasi think that bandwidth can be low but latency shold be low also16:48
LPhasnot more that 1/fps i think16:48
LPhasbut i have no clue16:49
AustereGrimlow bandwidth, as in wireless speeds... 54mb and less..16:49
LPhaswell, i'll be suprised if it can't work in such enviroment16:49
LPhasbut the real syncronization code is not made by me16:50
LPhasso i've no clue16:50
AustereGrimwell good work and good luck16:50
LPhasheh thx for the "good luck"16:50
LPhasthey should approve another project based on this16:50
LPhaswith 10 pandaboards and 10 hdtv16:50
LPhasthis would be fun16:50
AustereGrimLPhas that's kind of what we've been working with, but it's been depreciated from streaming video, to small boxes behind hdtvs displaying a webpage/slideshow16:52
AustereGrimless bandwitdh if it's just displaying a webpage... than pushing video stream to each client box16:53
LPhaswell, in my design at the moment every box will have his video16:53
LPhasbecause the video is static and this solution is way simpler16:53
AustereGrimbbiaf16:53
LPhasso no streaming at all16:53
infinityGrueMaster: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/geoclue seems to have a whole lot of dupes of your geoclue crash. :P17:04
infinityOh, most of which might be private due to stacktraces being attached.17:05
infinityBut I see 19 dupes.17:05
ogra_infinity, and someone in -devel bringing up the same bugs once an hour17:06
* infinity wonders what team he's in that's letting him see all the bugs...17:07
GrueMasterbug-control team17:15
brandiniJust did a dist-upgrade17:16
LPhaslol i so was on the wrong channel17:27
LPhasi tought i was on #gstreamer when i posted my app XD17:27
GrueMasterLPhas: But does it run on arm?17:28
LPhasGrueMaster, well not tested but should be17:28
LPhasi mean, gstreamer usually works on a pandaboard17:28
LPhasshould work just fine or so i hope since i will need to use that on the panda17:29
AustereGrimlol @ LPhas I was wondering why you posted here... kind of off topic.17:52
GrueMasterAustereGrim: If it runs on ubuntu arm images, than it is PDC info.  (Pretty Damn Cool).  :P17:54
MrCurious_gruemaster: tried the 11.10 last night, and it went cripled as soon as i added omap4 add ons18:04
GrueMasterok.  have you filed a bug yet?18:06
GrueMasterI'm currently tracking down banshee issues.18:06
MrCurious_i dodnt want to have to lissen to grey clouds again18:07
GrueMasterheh18:07
MrCurious_i need to wake up more before i try to spell/type18:07
MrCurious_since i got the time, lets try todays fresh-hot-one18:25
* GrueMaster wonders if the banshee failure is related to no 3D (and no clutter) support.18:33
ogra_GrueMaster, hmm, might be, though its should fall back to SW rendering18:34
GrueMasterRed herring.  debian/rules shows --disable-clutter18:35
ogra_good18:36
ogra_clutter will bite us badly next release18:36
ogra_no this one though :)18:36
GrueMasterInteresting.  The packages builds with --enable-meego, then deletes the meego related files.18:37
ogra_heh18:38
LPhasAustereGrim, eheh, found some audience btw XD19:04
MrCurious_gruemaster: my camera is getting 102FPS, up from < 29FPS  major improvement. suspect only thing keeping it from 125fps is not having omap4 video drivers...19:07
GrueMasterCool.19:08
MrCurious_yes, very!19:08
MrCurious_his will come together nicely soon19:08
Guest83239Just trying to install ubuntu-omap4-extras to my pandaboard on oneric19:15
Guest83239<Guest83239> Ive added the PPA, but that meta package doesnt exist19:15
Guest83239<Guest83239> any ideas?19:15
MrCurious_i think omap4 add ons arent yet ready for 11.1019:16
GrueMasterGuest83239: They haven't been pushed yet from upstream.  Word is "soon".19:16
Guest83239any way to get them 'in development'19:17
Guest83239or are they not event close to ready and would make system very unstable?19:18
GrueMasterNot that I know of.  I'm not upstream.19:18
GrueMasterThis banshee bug is frustrating.  It feels like there is a missing config or something, but I have scanned the manifests and come up short.  The failure occurs because a value lt 0 is passed to a size function, but I have no idea where this comes from.19:23
Guest83239My screen is now detected (using 11.10) so I get a display (thanks Grue for yesterday)19:33
Guest83239However, the picture misses a border around the sides19:34
GrueMasterGuest83239: Excellent.19:34
GrueMasterpicture?19:34
Guest83239the desktop19:34
Guest83239like its zoomed on the centre leaving some offscreen19:34
Guest83239(top bar, sides, bottom)19:35
GrueMasterAh, overscan.19:35
Guest83239thats the one, easy fix?19:36
Guest83239:)19:37
Guest83239(thanks in advance)19:37
GrueMasterNot sure.19:37
GrueMasterI don't have a 720p screen to test on.19:38
Guest83239ah nevermind :) ill find a solution with some digging (I hope). My other issue is audio, in the sound menu it says im using 'dummy audio' which emans I cant get any sound (over HDMI or 3.5mm). My luck19:40
Guest83239:p19:40
gildeanGuest83239: if you're using an external display, did you try to use the "auto" screen positioning option on it?19:48
Guest83239auto screen positioning?19:49
gildeanyes, on a normal external lcd display there is an option for that19:49
Guest83239oh i see what you mean, ill check. its a tv19:54
Guest83239on HDMI19:55
gildeanmake sure that it's not on "wide" mode or anything, there should be a option for "exact scan" or something like that19:56
ogra_Guest83239, look for a setting called overscan on your tv20:09
Guest83239will do, thanks20:10
AustereGrimGuest83239 or "just scan"20:23
AustereGrimI know I'm 10 minutes late... but yeah20:23
Guest83239hi again, whats the best video player for pandaboard? It seems to do OK with bigbuckbunny  so there must be HD support. yet with nornmal SD videos they have a poor framerate (worse when maximised)20:54
=== momcilo_ is now known as momcilo
=== lopi is now known as Lopi
GrueMasterWow, that didn't take long.  rhythmbox is now part of the dist-upgrade.  Yea for more testing.22:06
gildeanGrueMaster: banshee still not running?22:09
GrueMasterNo, but I am deep diving now.  The hope is to have a solution prior to next week release, but rhythmbox is a stable alternate.22:10
GrueMastersigh.  Today's (20111006) image for mx5 is now respawning oem-config.  grmbl.22:17
GrueMasterinfinity: Why are we still seeding aptitude when x86 is not?  (BTW, I am comparing manifests to see if I can figure out the banshee issues - more questions will come up).22:20
infinityGrueMaster: We're not?22:25
infinityGrueMaster: Which images are you comparing?22:25
GrueMaster20111006 .22:26
GrueMasteri386 vs omap4.22:26
infinityI meant which flavour(s).22:26
GrueMasterNevermind.  It is pulled in by tasksel.22:26
GrueMasterdesktop.22:26
infinityYes, it is.  But do we have tasksel on desktop?22:26
GrueMasteryes22:27
infinityAccidentally getting oem-config-debconf on desktop still?22:27
infinityI should sort that.22:27
infinityBut it's not a big deal.22:27
GrueMasterThere is actually a lot of packages that are missing (not just one-off due to pool spew).22:27
GrueMasterNot sure.  At lib* now.22:28
infinityOh, comparing those manifests is useless. :/22:30
infinityYou need the manifest-desktop that's actually on the image itself, or on the buildd machines.22:31
infinityThe full manifest for x86 is final system + live.22:31
infinityAnd live is a lot.22:31
infinity(Our manifest is also that, but our "live" is tiny, just jasper and oem-config, plus deps)22:31
GrueMasterNah.  I filter out the cruft (casper, unity, etc).22:31
infinityAnd filesystem tools...22:32
GrueMasterI'm looking mainly for something that may affect banshee.22:32
infinityWell, here's the extent of our desktop seed differences:22:34
infinitydesktop: * (banshee) [!armel]22:34
infinitydesktop: * (banshee-extension-ubuntuonemusicstore) [!armel]22:34
infinitydesktop: * (rhythmbox) [armel]22:34
infinityAnything beyond that would be stuff that doesn't exist in the archive for us (thus isn't picked up by germinate).22:35
GrueMasterWell, something has to be different for banshee to fail like it does.  Not sure why.  may be a dependency thing.22:36
GrueMasterThat is why I am looking.22:36
infinityMy assumption is on "broken code".22:36
GrueMasterI'm not getting that vibe.  At least not with banshee directly.22:37
GrueMasterI've done this before, in Lucid (and had the same arguments then).  Just doing a diff on seeds doesn't mean we aren't missing important bits.  We are also missing all of the *-de language packs.22:39
infinityGrueMaster: Those are in live.  They get removed.22:42
GrueMasterright, after installation, all unused langpacks are removed.  But during installation, they are there.  I was only giving that as an example.22:44
GrueMasterHere's an odd one for you, libwayland0.  It is required by unity-2d, but only on armel (I am running x86 in a VM with unity-2d - no libwayland0).22:46
rawstedanyone have a seagate dockstar in here?22:47
infinityGrueMaster: libgl1-mesa depends on it.22:56
infinityGrueMaster: And I suspect we pull that in for lack of DRI.22:56
GrueMasterAh.22:57
brandiniare there still no omap extras for the daily?23:31
infinityndec: *poke*23:49
infinityndec: What's the status of ti-omap-extras on oneiric?23:49
