OvenWerk1zequence: re: changing the default pulse device as was talked about in the user channel. It could be difficult.03:42
OvenWerk1I don't think we would get support changing the main pulseaudio package.03:42
OvenWerk1(dual display is really nice BTW)03:43
OvenWerk1It appears that while PA does ask for RT scheduling, it does not lock it's memory (meaning the OS is allowed to swap it out to disk)03:54
OvenWerk1I am thinking that pulse as it comes stock, is setup to work best with plain desktop, higher latency audio on mostly internal cards.03:57
OvenWerk1There may well be ways of setting it so it plays better with jack.03:57
OvenWerk1If so, that would probably be one more thing for -controls to tackle.03:58
eagles0513875_hey zequence  :D05:00
eagles0513875_hey zequence im noticing the ISO respin is in progress, what version of 1.0 did you guys pull did you pull the 1.0.1 package?05:55
eagles0513875_can anyone tell me if the 1.0.1 package was pulled into the iso respin for testing?06:49
elfyeagles0513875_: I'm just booting the image - I can look there if you want06:51
eagles0513875_elfy: yes please06:51
eagles0513875_that way i can work with motu on getting it included before release06:51
elfyeagles0513875_: what package are you actually talking about though :p06:51
eagles0513875_lmms06:51
eagles0513875_sorry i knew i forgot somethign I am still waking up granted i got up almost 3 hrs ago lol06:52
elfy1.0.0+bzr25606:52
Mirveagles0513875_: israel's branch is not proposed for merging, and no MOTU had uploaded it otherwise (I'm not sure if someone has promised to be looking after the upload?). I'll proposed it now and mark some things "Needs Fixing" from my POV (there is no upstream 1.0.1 version, and at the minimum it should be specified which commit the orig tarball is based off)07:01
eagles0513875_Mirv: let me get you the bug that has the link to so you can update the bug report i had filed07:03
elfyzequence: I'll manage to squeeze a couple of install tests in for you today - but I'm not in any position to do more than those07:03
Mirveagles0513875_: I've the bug, and I linked israel's branch now there too and gave my comments on the merge proposal07:06
Mirvfor a MOTU to be able to review the upload, he needs to be able to verify the upstream tarball so knowing that commit is the most important thing. archive admins would probably also reject a "1.0.1" when there's no such upstream version, so renaming the version number as suggested should be done at the same time.07:07
eagles0513875_Mirv: it pulls the tarball from what we have on sourceforge07:08
Mirveagles0513875_: no, it's not the 1.0.0 tarball, so it has to be some sort of snapshot instead?07:08
MirvI mean, from github instead of sourceforge07:09
Mirvwhich is fine, but it should be just specified07:09
eagles0513875_Mirv: currently its a snapshot form master07:10
eagles0513875_which is what we dont want 07:10
eagles0513875_we have a 1.0 stable branch which is what we have bzr based off of Israel is the person working on this as I have no idea on packaging07:10
eagles0513875_tbh07:10
Mirveagles0513875_: yeah, so the snapshot from stable should specify which commit it's based off, similar to what the master is currently specified07:11
eagles0513875_im just trying to ensure we have the right version in the repos for 14.0407:11
Mirvyep, I'm trying to help so I gave that feedback that I know is needed to be handled before MOTU can upload it07:11
eagles0513875_Mirv:  we already have a sponsor 07:11
Mirvsince tarballs of unknown origin cannot enter archives07:11
eagles0513875_if you look at the bug timo seems to be sponsoring this fix07:11
Mirveagles0513875_: ok, is he in which timezone? maybe he could finish of israel's branch07:12
Mirveagles0513875_: I'm Timo, btw, and I don't have upload rights so I'm still just a helper, not a sponsorer :D07:12
Mirvso you need someone who has upload rights to the universe07:12
eagles0513875_oh ok :D07:12
eagles0513875_i didnt know what your irc name was :D 07:13
eagles0513875_thanks for your help on this07:13
Mirvso for example https://launchpad.net/~motu/+members07:13
MirvSRU will be ok too, it's just more bureaucratic07:13
Mirvno problem :D07:14
eagles0513875_Mirv: any chance you can update the bug report with the above mentioned package name suggestion as israel is subscribed automatically to that bug07:14
Mirveagles0513875_: it's there in the linked branch's merge proposal discussion that is attached to the bug. I'll comment on the bug too so that it's noticed.07:15
eagles0513875_thanks07:15
eagles0513875_Mirv: im going to post the link on the bug as I just found it :D07:17
eagles0513875_linked to the proposal07:17
Mirveagles0513875_: you too! :)07:18
Mirv2 seconds apart it looks (59 seconds ago, 57 seconds ago) :D07:18
eagles0513875_lol 07:20
eagles0513875_Mirv: spoke to dholbach in motu and he said a feature freeze exception would need to be filed.07:20
Mirveagles0513875_: oh, ok, he knows better. and I think he's correct. if it's indeed a new upstream stable branch update, it's a new release. so the "leanest option" of patching out the problematic master pieces with a distro patch would not have needed FFe but be a bug fix instead.07:22
eagles0513875_ffe??07:22
Mirvbut the new stable branch snapshot is probably the best option, and getting FFe not a huge problem since the master branch snapshot has problematic commits07:23
Mirveagles0513875_: short for "Feature Freeze exception"07:23
eagles0513875_ahh ok 07:23
eagles0513875_sorry not used to the fancy short names :D07:23
eagles0513875_Mirv: are you employed by canonical out of curiosity07:23
Mirvwhen there are tens of FFe:s around it helps to use abbreviations :)07:23
Mirveagles0513875_: yes, and that's why I've my hands full of other stuff :) even on free time I'm preparing my local community (ubuntu-fi) stuff so release time is quite busy..07:24
Mirvor I'm a contractor to be more precise, not employee07:24
eagles0513875_kool07:24
MirvI started using ubuntu in 2004 and founded Ubuntu Finland in 2005, but for 7 years after that I worked on other embedded Linux stuff while staying active in the Ubuntu community07:27
eagles0513875_Mirv: do you mind if i pm you as I dont want to end up off topic in this channel07:28
Mirveagles0513875_: yeah feel free, no Studio discussion anymore07:28
zequenceOvenWerk1: Any changes to Pulseaudio need to be done in code. Either one of us digs into it, or we try getting someone involved on it. Doing a wishlist bug, or finding someone in LAD that would like to do it18:36
zequenceMirv: eagles0513875: I have someone willing to upload it fast, but as Mirv pointed out, the package needs to be fixed first18:39
zequenceSince this only affects our ISO, the release team is kind to us on this18:39
zequenceelfy: Thanks. I will do some testing myself today. Both ISOs. Don't stress it. Think we're fine on the most part, but if you do test, and find anything weird about the XFCE bits, please let me know18:42
elfyI did 64bit - you appear to still have the ibus issue18:42
zequenceelfy: What is the issue with that?18:42
zequenceI didn't touch those, since I don't know what they do, tbh18:43
elfyzequence: ok well basically the issue is - install with your keyboard layout - I used GB 18:43
zequenceelfy: Ok, so just removing those from seeds would fix that? Or do we need to add something too?18:44
elfypassword included a symbol - # for example, reboot - login works fine - as soon as you are at desktop it switches to US layout - so the password will fail 18:44
zequenceAh18:45
elfyI completely lost track of what we had to do in the end - it wasn't as simple as removing ibus I think18:45
elfywe still get the issue for upgrades - workround is purge ibus before and then upgrade or either set up ibus or purge it afterwards18:46
elfyand yes - ask in there :p18:46
zequencethanks elfy 18:48
elfywelcome18:49
zequenceSeems like we have two indicator applets for power again19:45
zequencei can't believe i missed the ibus bug before19:54
elfyzequence: such is life :)19:54
elfyI tested on vm so wouldn't have seen power applet afaik19:55
elfyI did see bluetooth - which we removed - but not sure if you actually used it so didn't comment19:55
zequenceI can live with two power applets until a possible SRU, but the login problem is quite severe19:58
zequenceinstalling latest now, and going to remove the ibus packages to see if that solves it19:58
zequenceseems like we have quite a sever bug with usb devices too19:59
zequenceOvenWerk1: Have you tested your usb device on latest releases?19:59
zequenceMight not affect you20:00

OvenWerk1I would think there will be a change in the kernel module at some point to "fix" this, but getting the driver moved to a module makes sense. The question is if the generic kernel maintainers are willing I would guess... or can we just do that for low latency?23:47
OvenWerk1The change does not sound like a security problem.23:49
