| [09:41] <crevette> Mithrandir, StevenK ; I 've been said to contact you for a bluetooth question | |
| [09:42] <crevette> I've package obex-data-server and now it is in NEW (I totally ignorant about the package acceptance process); once it's okay; will be possbile to make bluez-gnome depends on obex-data-server ? | |
| [09:43] <Mithrandir> yes, that's needed for the new bluez-gnome, I believe? | |
| [09:45] <crevette> yep | |
| [09:46] <crevette> I uploadded a debdiff to launchpad | |
| [09:46] <crevette> I package bluez-gnome 0.20 yesterday, and I tested it a little also | |
| [09:47] <crevette> I packaged obex-data-server 0.2 also, but I need to figure out If I need to include 2 python scripts, which are only for testing purpose | |

| [17:28] <smagoun_> jayc: robr_ubuntu I got the beta 6 driver stack to install + function using the Intel/Canonical LUM tree. If you push LUM to the PPA, I'l push libdrm2 and xserver-xorg-video-psb. | |
| [18:13] <jayc> smagoun: I wanted to push the beta 6 lum along with kernel, but I could not find the linux-2.6.24-lpia source package to get the orig.tgz file | |
| [18:15] <jayc> smagoun:looks like the linux source package is not available yet, so I was planning to check with amit and see if I can upload the entire source. | |
| [18:38] <amitk> smagoun_: jayc: works for me too. So if you can handle the userspace bits and ping me or jayc, we'll upload the kernel bits | |
| [19:29] <jayc> smagoun_: amitk : I just uploaded linux - 2.6.24-7.12 & linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24 - 2.6.24-7.12 source | |
| [19:30] <amitk> jayc: to ubuntu-mobile ppa? | |
| [19:30] <jayc> amitk: yes | |
| [19:32] <smagoun_> amitk: jayc I just pushed a new libdrm + xserver-xorg-video-psb to the PPA | |
| [19:32] <jayc> amitk:there was a warning about space not being available, but now it got published. may be we need to cleanup | |
| [19:32] <amitk> jayc: for future reference, add something like +804ume1 to the version number, so that the same version of a package isn't in hardy and PPA | |
| [19:32] <amitk> jayc: you can ignore the warning | |
| [19:32] <inuka_desk> samgoun_, this is the beta6 ones? | |
| [19:32] <amitk> hey inuka_desk | |
| [19:33] <inuka_desk> amitk, howdy | |
| [19:33] <amitk> inuka_desk: good... and you? | |
| [19:33] <inuka_desk> amitk, not too bad... | |
| [19:34] <amitk> inuka_desk: i read that the next version of the graphics drivers should be available soon (after beta 6). In a week from now? | |
| [19:35] <jayc> amitk: OK, regarding adding '+804ume1', is it true when I check it in the git as well? | |
| [19:35] <inuka_desk> amitk, yes I am waiting for approval from UMG, | |
| [19:35] <smagoun_> inuka_desk: yes, beta 6 | |
| [19:35] <inuka_desk> amitk, smagoun_ , so that means the beta6 changes are in ? | |
| [19:36] <amitk> inuka_desk: yes. Thanks to smagoun_ and jayc | |
| [19:36] <smagoun_> inuka_desk: in theory they should be available later today (once the PPA is done building them) | |
| [19:36] <inuka_desk> amitk, cool,. | |
| [19:37] <amitk> jayc: you don't need to push that last commit (changing the version) to the common git tree, since it will be overwritten when we rebase to latest hardy | |
| [19:37] <jayc> amitk: ok | |
| [19:38] <amitk> jayc: which reminds me, if this ppa build goes well and works, we'll need to rebase the common tree from hardy - we have upgraded to 2.6.24.2 | |
| [19:39] <jayc> amitk: I can do that, do I have to rebase the lum too? | |
| [19:39] <amitk> yes | |
| [19:39] <jayc> amitk: I had uploaded the same source (kernel & lim) to my PPA and tested it | |
| [19:40] <amitk> but wait until the PPA build is done and images can be successfully generated | |
| [19:40] <jayc> s/lim/lum | |
| [19:40] <amitk> yes.. lum too | |
| [20:08] <smagoun_> jayc: I just got mail that the kernel failed to build in the PPA. I have to run to a meting, do you or amitk have time to take a look? | |
| [20:11] <amitk> smagoun_: looking | |
| [20:12] <agoliveira> amitk: Looks like your build failed badly. | |
| [20:12] <agoliveira> Ooops, sorry | |
| [20:12] <amitk> agoliveira: it's the damn dpkg upgrade I think. It started flagging a long-existent bug in the control file | |
| [20:13] <agoliveira> amitk: Ouch... | |
| [21:06] <jayc> amitk: How do we fix this? how come the same source got built in my PPA few days back? | |
| [21:06] <amitk> jayc: dpkg was upgraded, it exposed a very old bug in our control file | |
| [21:07] <amitk> jayc: I have fixed it and uploaded a new kernel | |
| [21:32] * crevette is testing bluez-gnome 0.20 | |
| [21:34] <crevette> I have no service listed now ? is there a known bug in bluez ? | |
| [23:03] <aTOmicDuDe> mawhalen: ping | |
| [23:04] <mawhalen> aTOmicDuDe: hi | |
| [23:05] <aTOmicDuDe> mawhalen: sry, this is todd, see me in umd | |
| [23:35] <scales> hello all | |
| [23:35] <scales> anyone home? | |
| [23:37] <scales> ok well i was just curious if ubuntu mobile exists or is just in development | |
| [23:37] <scales> maybe how far along it is | |
| [23:39] <GrueMaster> ubuntu-mobile is still in heavy development, but looking better each day. The main focus is for ultra-mobile type devices (Samsung Q1, etc). If you are looking for an Ubuntu image for a laptop, the desktop images are more suited for that. | |
| [23:40] <scales> humm | |
| [23:40] <scales> well i have the asus eee | |
| [23:40] <scales> and i think mobile would be better for it | |
| [23:40] <GrueMaster> They're OS is actually derived from Ubuntu desktop. | |
| [23:41] <scales> xandros? | |
| [23:41] <scales> i have gutsy on mine now | |
| [23:41] <GrueMaster> The Ubuntu Mobile image is more for touch screen systems, and geared to specific hardware at this time. | |
| [23:41] <scales> i see | |
| [23:42] <GrueMaster> YOu can check out some screen shots at moblin.org. | |
| [23:42] <scales> alright | |
| [23:42] <GrueMaster> ALthough they are a bit dated. | |
| [23:42] <scales> i see | |
| [23:42] <scales> i was just looking for a more slimmed down ubuntu since it only has a 4gig hdd | |
| [23:42] <GrueMaster> Developers would rather work on the code than the web page. Go figure. | |
| [23:42] <scales> haha | |
| [23:42] <GrueMaster> I've seen those. Quite cool. | |
| [23:43] <scales> its more cute than cool | |
| [23:43] <scales> i mean it is nice for being a toy | |
| [23:43] <scales> but the screen size is small | |
| [23:43] <scales> i wouldnt mind a "different" os on it | |
| [23:44] <GrueMaster> I think the system would be ideal for doing presentations and such. It has an external vga port, so you can hook it up to a projector. | |
| [23:44] <scales> something that worked with a small screen | |
| [23:44] <scales> yep | |
| [23:44] <scales> that is true | |
| [23:44] <scales> i am somewhat of a newb to linux and while i have things running quite well on it, external display messes with it | |
| [23:45] <scales> that is something i think windows has got down and linux needs to work on | |
| [23:45] <scales> the screen utility in ubuntu is worthless | |
| [23:45] <GrueMaster> Actually, it's more the driver than the utility. | |
| [23:46] <scales> which, ubuntu or windowa | |
| [23:46] <scales> windows | |
| [23:46] <GrueMaster> I have a laptop with the same graphics driver. Hooking up an external display is an adventure at best. | |
| [23:46] <scales> haha | |
| [23:47] <scales> i wish drivers were made more for linux | |
| [23:47] <scales> it always seems like a challenge to get things working | |
| [23:47] <GrueMaster> It's a chicken/egg syndrome. | |
| [23:47] <scales> its really tough when i have been a windows user for so long and i want to go to linux. | |
| [23:48] <scales> installing ubuntu wasnt so bad on the eee, but little things here and there dont quite work | |
| [23:48] <GrueMaster> Hardware vendors won't put much effort into a platform that doesn't have much market share, the market won't use an OS that doesn't have good hardware support. | |
| [23:48] <scales> i fully get ya | |
| [23:48] <scales> messing with xorg.conf is a mess, sometimes works sometimes doesnt | |
| [23:48] <scales> and at the end of the day it bugs me to know that it all works flawlessly with xp | |
| [23:49] <GrueMaster> Well, when you have 20:1 people supporting Windows vs Linux, that's the result you can expect. Sad but true. | |
| [23:49] <scales> yeah... | |
| [23:51] <GrueMaster> What I find disturbing is when the Windows hardware developers complain that something doesn't work in Linux. They expect the Linux people to just "fix it", but won't provide clues or documentation. | |
| [23:51] <scales> haha | |
| [23:51] <GrueMaster> I get that a lot working on alsa. | |
| [23:51] <scales> ug | |
| [23:51] <scales> soundcard drivers right? | |
| [23:52] <GrueMaster> Intel HD Audio to be specific. | |
| [23:52] <scales> haha | |
| [23:52] <scales> yeah that is one of my little pet peves with linux | |
| [23:52] <scales> the sound is logarithmic | |
| [23:53] <scales> or exponentially controlled | |
| [23:53] <scales> wifi is also read differently | |
| [23:53] <GrueMaster> You mean the volume? | |
| [23:53] <scales> not quite in % | |
| [23:53] <scales> yeah | |
| [23:53] <GrueMaster> Actually, it's pretty close to %. It is controlled mainly by the hardware. | |
| [23:54] <scales> humm | |
| [23:54] <scales> so why do i only have control over 50% of my volume | |
| [23:54] <scales> i know i can switch that volume adjuster to PCM | |
| [23:54] <scales> but that wont match up with the FN volume keys | |
| [23:55] <GrueMaster> If you look at /proc/asound/card0/codec#*, and find either a Pin Node or a mixer node, you'll also see a line that says Amp-Out caps: ofs=0x17, nsteps=0x1f, stepsize=0x05, mute=1 | |
| [23:55] <GrueMaster> Or similar. | |
| [23:55] <scales> humm | |
| [23:56] <scales> let me turn it on | |
| [23:56] <scales> also, ubuntu boots a little slowly too | |
| [23:56] <scales> not sure why that is | |
| [23:56] <scales> too many processes starting by default | |
| [23:56] <scales> perhaps | |
| [23:57] <scales> anyway | |
| [23:57] <scales> oh well | |
| [23:57] <scales> i got to get back to boring lab work | |
| [23:57] <scales> college gets a little dull at times | |
| [23:57] <GrueMaster> I hear you. Same here. | |
