| darkxst_ | jbicha, any idea where I can file a bug against gdm off ricotz ppa? | 00:48 |
| jbicha | darkxst_: you can go ahead and file against gdm, once we get the bugs worked out, I'd like to upload the newer gdm into ubuntu and filing that bug helps | 00:56 |
| darkxst_ | jbicha, ok | 00:59 |
| === cpg|away is now known as cpg | ||
| darkxst_ | jbicha, with a trivial patch and can now boot into gdm ;) | 02:37 |
| jbicha | darkxst_: cool! | 02:49 |
| jbicha | darkxst_: the other two major bugs we have are: broken locale support and the keyring doesn't get auto-unlocked | 02:51 |
| darkxst_ | jbicha, yeh I noticed the keyring thing | 02:57 |
| jbicha | I'm guessing we should look at the PAM code for that | 02:59 |
| darkxst | jbicha, looks like it is using the autologin pam profile | 03:28 |
| darkxst | when it probably should be using /etc/pam.d/gdm (for password login) | 03:30 |
| === cpg is now known as cpg|away | ||
| pitti | Good morning | 03:52 |
| darkxst | jbicha, however when I change to the correct pam profile, gdm breaks ;( | 04:13 |
| jbicha | darkxst: well that might not be it. What I was referring to is that upstream now ships 3 different PAM profiles | 04:17 |
| jbicha | and the current Ubuntu profile is slightly different than the Debian one but I don't understand the GDM/PAM stuff | 04:17 |
| jbicha | http://git.gnome.org/browse/gdm/tree/data | 04:17 |
| darkxst | jbicha, yeh, and the debian packaging is using the gdm-autologin profile | 04:18 |
| darkxst | jbicha, I think I fixed it | 04:57 |
| darkxst | jbicha, you need to create another link in gdm.postinst | 05:01 |

| pitti | ogra_: it's meant to consider restricted | 09:39 |
| dholbach | pitti, it's happening right now and happened some days ago too | 09:39 |
| dholbach | pitti, I can give you the logs and the crash file it's currently working on (at least according to lsof) | 09:40 |
| pitti | dholbach: which process in particular is using the CPU? (check in top) | 09:40 |

| pitti | oh, that part, it's still crashing | 09:41 |
| dholbach | what do you want me to do? :) | 09:42 |
| pitti | most of the activity is usually due to compressing core dumps; what crashed exactly? | 09:42 |
| pitti | dholbach: can you strace it and check if it's still reading data? | 09:42 |
| pitti | if it doesn't read anything but burns CPU, attaching gdb to it and seeing where it's currently stuck might help, too | 09:42 |
| pitti | if the core dump is huge, compressing it will take a bit, but that's the only thing I'm aware of | 09:43 |

| xclaesse | upgrades should *really* remove old kernel images and headers | 10:54 |
| xclaesse | this weekend I had to fix my mother's computer: a 15G / partition full for a simple ubuntu installation (initial install was some years ago) | 10:54 |
| xclaesse | reason: kernel images and headers accumulated (since 2.6.24) was taking ~9G | 10:56 |
| seb128 | Sweetshark, go for the ffe I guess | 10:56 |
| xclaesse | seriously, it still had 2.6.24 kernels on a Precise system... | 10:56 |
| seb128 | xclaesse, yeah, it's a known issue (and surprisingly hard to get resolved) :-( | 10:56 |
| xclaesse | seb128, it happened exactly 0 times to need an older kernel | 10:57 |
| xclaesse | in all my ubuntu experience | 10:57 |
| xclaesse | the package could just replace the previous one | 10:57 |
| xclaesse | that should be trivial, no? | 10:57 |
| xclaesse | (well, being a dev as well, I know things that seems trivial aren't :) | 10:58 |
| ricotz | xclaesse, replacing the previous kernel is a *bad* idea! | 10:59 |
| seb128 | xclaesse, well, if there is a bug for your hardware on the new kernel one day you will be happy to have an old kernel to boot | 10:59 |
| ricotz | xclaesse, seb128 a simple sweep-tool suggesting to remove *ancient* kernels of previous ubuntu release would be reasonable though | 11:00 |

| ogra_ | i dont think its a 1:1 code copy, no | 13:22 |
| mterry | ogra_, OK. And it's a separate upstream? Like a fork of the code or something? Why use this instead of mesa's libs? | 13:23 |
| ogra_ | there are no libs in mesa for dri2 atm, thats the point :) | 13:24 |

Let's say I have a hardware with cpu CPUNAME; If I want to compile C/C++ app for this, then I'm doing something like gcc -march=CPUNAME and it works. But how can I do cross recompilation of some existing deb package [from official ubuntu repo] for such CPUNAME? I guess, that should exist some [auto] tools for this, so when ubuntu dev team preparing packages for arm,x86 and x86-64 from the | 21:20 |
| ia | same sources/packages, they probably don't do all those stuff by hands. So I will be very appreciate for pointing me to any relevant direction for solution of this issue. Thanks. | 21:20 |
| slangasek | ia: DEB_CFLAGS_APPEND=-march=CPUNAME dpkg-buildpackage -uc -us -B | 21:22 |
| slangasek | this is not guaranteed to work for all packages; but it is the standard interface | 21:22 |
| slangasek | and if it doesn't work, you can file a bug on the package (preferably in Debian) | 21:22 |
| slangasek | ia: however, this is entirely unrelated to how packages are prepared for different architectures. *that* is done by native compilation on the target architecture, using a gcc that outputs binaries for the target machine by default. | 21:23 |

| ia | slangasek: right. I forgot about detail - let's say we need not only flag, but another CC value - instead of gcc something like ARCH-gnu-linux-gcc, then what? | 21:27 |
| slangasek | ia: then for that, you want dpkg-buildpackage -a$arch, where $arch is an architecture name which is known to dpkg and which has a correct mapping to the GNU triplet you need | 21:28 |
| slangasek | dpkg-buildpackage -a$arch is how you cross-compile. Support for cross-compilation is much, much less complete in the Ubuntu archive compared with support for DEB_CFLAGS_APPEND | 21:28 |
| ia | slangasek: very interesting, thank you; one more question - what about automation? let's say I want to do it not only with one package, but with all packages from 'main' part of repository - I guess, that somehow I should use apt-build? Any working recipes for such case? | 21:31 |

| slangasek | ia: there are several tools for archive autobuilding; xdeb is one intended specifically for in-place cross-bootstrapping of a port | 21:32 |
| slangasek | if that doesn't meet your needs, Ubuntu uses sbuild for the building and launchpad for the build scheduling; and Debian uses sbuild+wanna-build. | 21:33 |
| slangasek | the hard part is figuring out which packages to build in what order for purposes of bootstrapping. There's been some Google Summer of Code work in Debian around that this year, but the results haven't yet been incorporated into the mainline tools AFAIK | 21:34 |
| ia | slangasek: interesting and useful information, thanks again. BTW, I think that it will be cool to see some articles (at wiki.ubuntu, for example) with detailed instructions how exactly ubuntu dev team is building packages - from upstream/debian sources to iso generation for misc. arch's, so anybody can repeat it; I think that it will be very interesting and useful for advanced users/developers. Probably somewhere such information is available already, but I | 21:43 |
| ia | can't google it easily | 21:43 |
| slangasek | ia: most of the things you're asking about aren't related to how Ubuntu themselves are building packages, and are in such rough form that they're not interesting to document at this stage :) | 21:47 |

| roaksoax | jdstrand: will do! Thanks! | 21:51 |
