| xnox | ev: do you use glade or do you hand edit the .ui files? | 11:02 |
|---|---|---|
| ev | xnox: glade, generalyl | 11:04 |
| xnox | ev: it coredumps on precise & quantal, I keep submitting whoopsie reports =) | 11:04 |
| ev | heh, it's actually the overlay scrollbar | 11:04 |
| xnox | oh, ok. there was a magic variable to disable that? | 11:05 |
| ev | do LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0 glade | 11:05 |
| xnox | =) | 11:05 |
| xnox | thanks | 11:05 |
| ev | sure thing | 11:05 |
| ev | njpatel and I were just chatting about that | 11:05 |
| xnox | and custom glade catalog is cool as well ;-) | 11:05 |
| ev | oh yeah, there are environment variables for that | 11:06 |
| xnox | less generic name would be better =) | 11:06 |
| ev | :) | 11:06 |
| xnox | after searching packages.ubuntu.com I was like, WHERE IS IT! then oh, it's right here next to the rest of them | 11:06 |
| ev | the catalog? | 11:08 |
| xnox | gtkwidgets.xml | 11:09 |
| ev | ah yes | 11:09 |
| ev | sorry about that | 11:09 |
| xnox | nevermind. Is there a bug about overlay scrollbars? | 11:10 |
| xnox | =) | 11:10 |
| ev | probably | 11:13 |
| ev | I'd file a report, but I'd rather just roll up a magazine and smack cimi with it repeatedly | 11:13 |
| ev | ah the joys of working in an office | 11:13 |
| xnox | =)))) | 11:15 |
| * xnox sends all the best regards to cimi | 11:16 | |
| xnox | ev: tada: https://picasaweb.google.com/105922848292507689403/UbiquityMockup#slideshow/5747921182916743730 | 11:53 |
| ev | xnox: yay | 12:46 |
| ev | xnox: by the way, have you seen the install design specification? https://docs.google.com/a/canonical.com/document/edit?id=1bZ4yQIVgGaUGSYu3qiUHnQt3ieBZoqunP_DcleHCr3I#heading=h.78fde26c5735 | 12:46 |
| xnox | ev: yes I have. | 12:46 |
| ev | wonderful, and you've met Matthew, right? | 12:46 |
| ev | mpt that is | 12:46 |
| xnox | ev: I bet the design team is laughing at my mockup =) | 12:46 |
| ev | he's on holiday, back tomorrow :) | 12:47 |
| xnox | ev: yes, I have been in a lot of talks with mpt about this. He is back on Wednesday and he already saw debian-installer slideshows | 12:47 |
| ev | excellent | 12:47 |
| ev | very glad to hear that | 12:47 |
| xnox | now i'm doing 'quick' functional design idea for him to work on. | 12:47 |
| ev | sure thing | 12:47 |
| ogra_ | hmm, cant you use encryption without lvm ? | 12:47 |
| ogra_ | (i would drop the "as well" from the text) | 12:48 |
| xnox | ogra_: you can, but it's pain. Because, as far as I know, you cannot partition the crypt1 device (please prove me wrong) | 12:48 |
| ogra_ | dunno, i never use encryption :) | 12:48 |
| xnox | and we want parity with alternative CD which currently does two recipes: LVM and LVM&CRYPT | 12:48 |
| ogra_ | but i thought you can do it with dm | 12:48 |
| xnox | I will try, but it's messed up to care about encryption without LVM imho. | 12:49 |
| ogra_ | ah, k | 12:49 |
| ogra_ | then the text also makes sense :) | 12:49 |
| * xnox doesn't want to think about mbr & partition tables on a fake crypt device..... | 12:50 | |
| ogra_ | just encrypt them along ;) | 12:50 |
| xnox | I will try it... in the vm | 12:51 |
| xnox | and check if it boots | 12:51 |
| * ogra_ doubts that ... i was actually joking :) | 12:52 | |
| xnox | More mockups of manual partitioner: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Ubiquity/AdvancedPartitioningSchemes#Ubiquity_Mockups | 13:40 |
| xnox | ogra_ ev ^^^ | 13:40 |
| ev | good stuff | 13:42 |
| ogra_ | looks great | 13:42 |
| xnox | I'm not sure if the automatic partitionaire should actually show three partitions, upon selecting encryption. | 13:43 |
| xnox | to allow tweaking the size of boot (200MB?) and/or; '/' and free space in the volume group... | 13:43 |
| xnox | maybe too advanced.... | 13:43 |
| * xnox loves the fact that I can tweak xml, scp it into vm, sudo cp into place, restart ubiquity and take screenshots. | 13:45 | |
| ev | yeah, lets try to avoid overcomplicating the automatic partitioner for the sake of appeasing some advanced users | 13:45 |
| ev | yeah - do edit outside the VM | 13:45 |
| ev | I can't count the number of times I lost work because I was hacking on top of the aufs tree | 13:46 |
| xnox | =))) | 13:46 |
| ev | a while back I had code to nfs export the interesting directories | 13:47 |
| ev | no idea what happened to that | 13:47 |
| xnox | nfs ate the configs? | 13:47 |
| xnox | =) | 13:47 |
| ev | heh | 13:47 |
| ev | yay, JMX -> graphite is working. Proper monitoring for the Cassandra ring coming soon. | 13:47 |
| ev | not really installer chat, but I had to say it somewhere :) | 13:48 |
| * ev creeps back into #webops | 13:48 | |
| xnox | In the previous workplace, we had nfs server & dhcp server on separate boxes. At the powercut it was a race condition: if dhcp server & desktops come up before nfs server, they will have access, otherwise we had to restart the nfs server... because it doesn not support netmasks | 13:49 |
| xnox | ev: is that something you are working on for users in Narnia? | 13:49 |
| ev | ouch | 13:50 |
| ev | heh, something like that | 13:50 |
| ev | we're suddenly seeing timeouts in some critical places | 13:50 |
| ev | lesson learned - measure everything. You never know what you'll need and when, and storage is cheap. | 13:51 |
| antarus | I keep confusing this channel with #puppet | 14:06 |
| antarus | which is amazing really | 14:06 |
| * xnox antarus, we presseed puppet with debconf. Clearly we are superior ;-) | 14:07 | |
| antarus | we do that too | 14:07 |
| antarus | its horrific | 14:07 |
| antarus | 'first you run goobuntu-config foo=false, that sets a debconf value, then we export all goobuntu/$KEYS as facter facts, then we use those facts to configure the machine' | 14:08 |
| antarus | ass backwards | 14:08 |
| xnox | antarus: =))) yeap. I think I met you at the UDS, but I can't put a face to the irc nickname. | 14:10 |
| antarus | you did not, because I wasn't there | 14:17 |
| antarus | the rest of my team was | 14:17 |
| antarus | ;) | 14:17 |
| ogra_ | you probably underestimate xnox's imagination capabilities :) | 14:17 |
| antarus | could be ;p | 14:19 |
| CIA-62 | ubiquity: evand * r5493 ubiquity/ (5 files in 3 dirs): (log message trimmed) | 14:25 |
| CIA-62 | ubiquity: * scripts/simple-plugins, ubiquity/plugins/ubi-prepare.py: Move from Jockey | 14:25 |
| CIA-62 | ubiquity: to "ubuntu-drivers autoinstall". Add ubuntu-drivers-common Recommends: for | 14:25 |
| CIA-62 | ubiquity: this. | 14:25 |
| CIA-62 | ubiquity: * scripts/plugininstall.py: Drop jockey --check-composite call. It is | 14:25 |
| CIA-62 | ubiquity: obsolete as the free drivers now provide 3D support. Automatic | 14:25 |
| CIA-62 | ubiquity: installation of graphics drivers is controlled and covered by | 14:25 |
| xnox | ev: I'm getting my housemate into Debian development. He is a python coder. And he 'wants to package something popular' I suggested usb-creator into debian. He is exiceted and coding on it now ;-) | 20:22 |
| ev | cool! | 20:22 |
| CIA-62 | ubiquity: superm1 * r5494 ubiquity/ (debian/changelog ubiquity/plugins/ubi-timezone.py): | 22:32 |
| CIA-62 | ubiquity: Don't encode callbacks in UTF8 in the timezone plugin anymore. The strings | 22:32 |
| CIA-62 | ubiquity: are already unicode. | 22:32 |
| cjwatson | superm1: Please make sure that's python2-friendly | 22:48 |
| cjwatson | superm1: Are you sure you don't need a sys.version guard there? | 22:48 |
| superm1 | oh, it's certainly not right now. yeah i'll add a sys.version guard in, i didn't realize you were keepign the codebase compatible with both | 22:49 |
| cjwatson | For the time being, until I'm certain we won't need to pull the abort switch and drop back to Python 2 | 22:49 |
| cjwatson | It'll be easy enough to search-and-destroy all the compatibility code when we're ready | 22:49 |
| superm1 | sure, i'll add it shortly | 22:52 |
| CIA-62 | ubiquity: superm1 * r5495 ubiquity/ubiquity/plugins/ubi-timezone.py: make that last commit compatible with python2 and 3 | 23:12 |
