| [01:00] <ScottK2> Is somebody coordinating the libffi4 -> libffi5 transition? | |
| [02:14] <tmmoyer> has anyone worked with germinate and could tell me why when I list a metapackage as a seed it doesn't say I need the metapackage? | |
| [02:19] <tmmoyer> does anyone know of an easy way to take a list of packages, and ensure that all dependecies are satisfied by some archive, specifically the archive that is present on the install CD. what I am trying to do is starting from the server install cd for hardy, add a bunch of custom build packages to the cd, and ensure that I can install the system (including any packages on the CD) without a network connection | |
| [02:20] <pwnguin> i have an idea | |
| [02:20] <pwnguin> piuparts | |
| [02:22] <pwnguin> just make sure the piuparts chroot has identical packages to the server cd | |
| [02:23] <tmmoyer> that looks interesting, not sure it is exactly what I am looking for though. | |
| [02:24] <tmmoyer> i think from looking around, I may have to come up with my own script to verify this, which while not hard is just time consuming to get correct. I think I should be able to utilize things like apt-rdepends and such to retrieve all dependencies and also dpkg --info | |
| [02:54] <mgolisch> heya ppl | |
| [04:31] <DrivenMad> Has anyone installed linux on a E-Vectra system( terminal box) ?? I keep getting blank screens | |

| [07:35] * jdong reads arnieboy's comments about mjg59 a few times... sure that he is misreading it repeatedly. | |
| [07:52] <pwnguin> jdong: link? | |

| [07:53] <jdong> pwnguin: a bit disturbing.\ | |
| [07:54] <pwnguin> but par for course | |
| [07:57] <Amaranth> heh | |
| [07:57] <Amaranth> I just read that | |
| [07:59] * pwnguin suggests that mvo offer the next "design review" ;) | |
| [08:02] <pwnguin> kinda reminds me of that guy who came in a few days ago accusing apt-rsync detractors as unforward thinking, selfish and unempathetic | |
| [08:05] <Hobbsee> jdong: sounds like good crack! | |
| [08:06] <Hobbsee> jdavies: right, so he still didn't learn :( | |
| [08:08] <Hobbsee> jdong: then again, do you really expect any better from a 'kill -9 dpkg'er? | |
| [08:23] <Auzy> hey | |

| [08:41] <Auzy> quiet day? | |

| [10:42] <matty3269> Hi all | |
| [10:43] <matty3269> Please could somebody help me, I am looking for a system call or an API that I can use to get the model name of all the network cards inside a ubuntu box, does anybody know how i could do this? | |
| [10:47] <pwnguin> lspci? | |
| [10:47] <pwnguin> or perhaps lshw | |
| [10:49] <matty3269> yeah I was thinking that. Although i would like to resolve it to an interface name so I could get the IP address etc for it. | |
| [10:49] <pwnguin> ifconfig | |
| [10:51] <matty3269> yeah but that doesnt give the manufacturer and model does it? | |
| [10:52] <pwnguin> so glue them together | |
| [10:53] <pwnguin> or perhaps lshal | |
| [10:54] <matty3269> Yeah i looked at hal and was looking at the API for it, looked rather complicated, so I may just use a g_spawn_command_line_sync instead | |
| [11:15] <matty3269> does anybody know how i can get started on developing applications for ubuntu? | |
| [11:17] <TheInfinity> matty3269: like every other development for linux | |
| [11:36] <bimberi> !develop | matty3269 | |

| [11:38] <matty3269> bimberi, thanks | |
| [11:38] <bimberi> matty3269: yw | |
| [11:39] <mathrick> hi, it seems that packages.ubuntu.com is down | |
| [11:42] <bimberi> mathrick: #canonical-sysadmin might be a good place to report that | |
| [11:42] <mathrick> ok | |
| [11:42] <bimberi> mathrick: feel free to point at me if that's wrong :) | |
| [11:43] <mathrick> ok :) | |
| [11:43] <mathrick> also, what on earth happened to hal-device-manager in hardy? | |
| [11:43] <mathrick> it disappeared completely, not even the package is there | |
| [12:09] <cody-somerville> Germinate is still writing to germinate-output/$DISTRO.hardy | |
| [12:56] <Keybuk> mathrick: it's called gnome-device-manager now | |

| [15:24] <cody-somerville> :) | |
| [15:25] <cjwatson> cody-somerville: just hadn't changed it since the archive wasn't in place yet when I was last poking at that stuff | |
| [15:25] * cody-somerville nods. | |
| [15:25] <cjwatson> will be fixed next crontab run | |

| [17:44] <xhaker> mjg59: got a nvidia 8600 here. | |
| [17:50] <mjg59> xhaker: What machine? | |
| [18:19] <andrew___> Does anyone have any ideas how I could track down the cause of a weird issue with keyboard preferences being ignored? | |
| [18:33] <xhaker> mjg59: LG r500 | |
| [18:34] <xhaker> mjg59: sorry for the delay, want me to try something? having problems? | |
| [18:34] <mjg59> xhaker: Can you do acpidump and stick the output somewhere? | |
| [19:00] <pochu> why isn't MoM being updated? | |
| [19:01] <LaserJock> maybe it got stuck | |
| [19:02] <juliux> hi doko | |

| [19:15] <mjg59> xhaker: Ok, thanks for that | |
| [19:16] <t4g> xhaker: np | |
| [19:23] <emgent> heya people | |
| [19:34] <Keybuk> pochu: it's not MoM, it's the actual Ubuntu archive | |
| [19:37] <pochu> Keybuk: I guess Colin or somebody is aware of it? :) | |
| [19:37] <pochu> Keybuk: btw do you know when MoM will have comments support? It's being done, right? | |
| [19:44] <LaserJock> pochu: I was told it just needed to get merged in | |
| [20:00] <Keybuk> pochu: elmo is aware of it | |
| [20:00] <Keybuk> LaserJock: it also needs a bunch of support on the machine like mod_python | |
| [20:00] <Keybuk> and a security audit since it's running from the DC | |
| [20:00] <Keybuk> I've been monumentally busy, so haven't had a chance yet | |
| [20:00] <Keybuk> it's on my things to do during relaxed hours at UDS | |
| [20:02] <LaserJock> Keybuk: ah, makes sense | |
| [21:18] <Skiessi> why libsamplerate hasn't been updated? | |
| [21:20] <Skiessi> I mean I think it should | |
| [21:21] <norsetto> Skiessi: its a merge | |
| [22:34] <slangasek> ok, so what's changed in g-p-m/hal in hardy-proposed, that my laptop now suspends to ram when idle only when the lid is /open/? | |
| [22:35] <Nafallo> ehrm... | |
| [22:35] <pwnguin> heh | |
| [22:42] <ScottK> slangasek: Nothing AFAICT (No gpm package and HAL seems unrelated). It's seemed to me that suspend has gotten more problematic since release, but I'm not sure where to point. | |
| [22:47] <pwnguin> ScottK: i had a guy in #ubuntu-kernel git-bisect and he came up with a watchdog timer commit | |
| [22:47] <ScottK> pwnguin: You mean for hal? | |
| [22:48] <pwnguin> no =/ | |
| [22:48] <ScottK> OK. 'cause the hal change is a timer change. | |
| [22:48] <pwnguin> interesting | |
| [22:49] <ScottK> But it's a change for CD ROM detection. I can't see how that would affect suspend | |
| [22:50] <pwnguin> unfortunately, I lent out my laptop, and it suffered from a suspend bug | |
| [22:50] <pwnguin> for ages. ive never been able to suspend it | |
