GrueMastercjwatson: (or someone equally knowledgeable in oem-config), is there a way to preseed oem-config for automation testing?  I tried using the same preseed I use for netinstall, but it didn't work.  The system had the user info filled in, but prompted me still for each line.16:03
ogra_GrueMaster, iirc ubiquity needs some special switch for that to run fully automated, i guess thats true for oem-config as well16:05
GrueMasterogra_: Needless to say, your preseed mod didn't work.16:06
ogra_file a bug please ... jasper.log appreciated16:07
CIA-11debian-installer: cjwatson * r1612 ubuntu/ (6 files in 2 dirs): Move to 3.2.0-10 kernels.16:18
cjwatsonGrueMaster: I have a suspicion that the user is special because it always differs from the one set in ubiquity16:19
cjwatsonthere are definitely some manual hacks around that in oem-config, and I think I've generally said when asked that oem-config preseeding is best-effort at beest16:20
cjwatson*best16:20
GrueMasterSo essentially this is sounding like a lost cause.16:22

cjwatsonGrueMaster: given that I have no time to work on it for at least a couple of months, the best I can say is "sorry" unless you can find somebody to fix it ...16:23
GrueMasterAny other ideas for doing automated image smoke testing?  With all the images we have for armel, I can't do all of them manually daily.16:24

ogra_GrueMaster, well, with the plan to have oem-config executable in a chroot to be able to run it inside of live-build (as rootstock replacement) either infinity or me will look into that16:26
ogra_that should help your case as well16:26
ogra_its just not high prio for either of us16:26

GrueMastercjwatson: Is there a way to tell oem-config-debconf to not go into a curses mode?  If that were possible, I could at least do something via serial-console & expect.16:57
cjwatsonno17:00
cjwatsonwell, you might try DEBIAN_FRONTEND=readline perhaps17:00
cjwatsonI suppose you could even try DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive and see if that helps17:01
GrueMasterI'll give those a try.17:07

GrueMaster"While we're sympathetic to the SOPA protest, which involved high-profile sites like Wikipedia "going dark" for 24 hours yesterday, we categorically deny blowing anything up in support of the cause."17:33
GrueMasterLOL17:33
GrueMasterOops, wrong channel.17:35
GrueMastercjwatson: None of the DEBIAN_FRONTEND=[text readline noninteractive] settings has any effect.  oem-config still comes up with a txt-gui through serial console.18:28
