[00:27] <darkhole> Hi, I'm Julian Alarcon, from Colombia, i'm part of the Colombian Team.. I'm now an admin of this LoCo Team and also an official translator of Ubuntu to Spanish, now I'm workng at the side of Hollman like admins of Ubuntu-Co

[00:27] * pleia2 likes "plant a tree" :)
[00:28] <darkhole> jeje..
[00:28] <pedro_> what kind of tree ? :P
[00:28] <darkhole> some from here, bogota city..
[00:28] <MagicFab> darkhole helped a lot define many processes we have in Ubuntu-co - we came up with a specific process to prepare our loco members for Ubuntu membership
[00:28] <darkhole> we always have a meeting, like admins, to organize the Team..
[00:29] <atoponce> darkhole: are you looking to becoming a motu? you mention teaching packageing on your wiki
[00:29] <darkhole> Yes..
[00:29] <hollman> thanks to darkhole who has more experience than me, we have streamlined many processes and projects of co-U
[00:30] <darkhole> I like his.. but I have to practice first :) (with my ppa)
[00:30] <darkhole> In Ubuntu-Co we have in ths days many traffic of the mailing list..
[00:30] <darkhole> We have 400+ people in the ist..
[00:31] <pedro_> darkhole: how did you get involved with the translation team?
[00:31] <MagicFab> I *love* these guys. Their work means I was able to almost disappear from u-co as I went to other projects
[00:31] <darkhole> Mmm, I was working in Suse Team..
[00:31] <darkhole> TYranslating the wiki..
[00:31] <darkhole> But, i was alone..
[00:31] <darkhole> jeje..
[00:32] <darkhole> I don't feel the community work. so, I try Ubuntu when I have Internet connection
[00:32] <atoponce> darkhole: what would it mean to you to be an ubuntu member? what will you do with this membership?
[00:33] <darkhole> I like this, this will make me. first.. happy :)
[00:33] <atoponce> k. :) after that?
[00:33] <lfaraone> Hey, I'm Luke Faraone. I'm part of the DC LoCo team. I've promoted Ubuntu at various fests, as well as help to triage and fix some bugs. In this cycle, I've been working to get the Sugar Project <http://sugarlabs.org> 's packages up-to-date in Intrepid.
[00:33] <darkhole> And, very responsible..
[00:33] <lfaraone> (oops, pressed enter too soon()
[00:33] <darkhole> I'm (with hollman) the Team's examples to follow..
[00:34] <darkhole> And, with more desire to continue working for Ubuntu
[00:34] <atoponce> darkhole: it's a big responsibility. memberships mean a lot where i come from.
[00:34] <darkhole> I like so much the community environment, in everywhere.. :)
[00:34] <atoponce> if you think you did a lot of work now, wait until you become a member. :)

[00:39] <lfaraone> pleia2: heh, thanks.
[00:40] <lfaraone> I'm Luke Faraone. I'm part of the DC LoCo team. I've promoted Ubuntu at various fests, as well as help to triage and fix some bugs. In this cycle, I've been working to get the Sugar Project <http://sugarlabs.org> 's packages up-to-date in Intrepid.
[00:40] <lfaraone> (as I've already said... :)
[00:40] <atoponce> :)
[00:40] <lfaraone> http://launchpad.net/~lfaraone , and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/LukeFaraone are my links.
[00:41] <pleia2> lfaraone: what are your immediate plans, and more long term ones?
[00:43] <lfaraone> pleia2: Well, I plan on working better with upstream for the next cycle in getting those packages in the repos before feature freeze (we had to get a FFE last time), and eventually (in a year or so) plan to apply for MOTU.
[00:43] <pleia2> cool
[00:44] <atoponce> lfaraone: i see a lot of work with sugar labs. what else have you contributed?
[00:44] <lfaraone> atoponce: I've been triaging a bit.
[00:44] <pleia2> lfaraone: you didn't happen to go to HOPE with maco and everyone, did you?
[00:44] <lfaraone> atoponce: I'm also very active in ubuntu promotion, I've helped other members do installfests and handed out CDs on SFD.
[00:44] <crimsun> Speaking as a former Ubuntu core dev who is mentoring Like in bug triaging alongside Mackenzie "maco" Morgan - he's a quick learner. Not only has he been enthusiastic about helping "evangelise Ubuntu" for quite some time, but he does so consistently, helpfully, and graciously.
[00:45] <crimsun> Luke, even. I can't type.
[00:45] <atoponce> crimsun: cool. thx
[00:45] <lfaraone> pleia2: No, I missed it.
[00:46] <lfaraone> pleia2: But I'd like to be able to go next time.
[00:46] <pleia2> cool, just curious :)
[00:46] <pleia2> lfaraone: do much work with the dc loco?
[00:46] <lfaraone> pleia2: Yes, I've helped with a lot of their events recently.
[00:47] <mattva01> pleia2: I can confirm that he has been very helpful at DC Loco events
[00:47] <pleia2> great :)
[00:48] <atoponce> lfaraone: what will ubuntu membership mean to you?
[00:48] <maco> ive got a photo of him at the Takoma Park Folk Festival, where we were tabling...but I left my camera at home, so i cant imagebin it right now...oops
[00:48] <pleia2> maco: no visual proof then? hmm ;)
[00:48] <maco> crimsun took the photo, ask him
[00:49] <pleia2> hehe
[00:49] * MagicFab loves imagebinettes :)
[00:49] <lfaraone> pleia2: It'd mean I'd be able to contribute more to the community,

[00:54] <MagicFab> lfaraone, bravo :)
[00:54] <maco> lfaraone: im joking, school's getting me too
[00:55] <maco> but we're only 500 bugs from jumping kubuntu-de ^_^
[00:55] <lfaraone> maco: Just wait until I add all the sync request bugs I've filed and poked people about :)
[00:55] <lfaraone> maco: (not to mention the 30 or so bug reports spawned from those syncs!)

[15:59] <pitti> hi
[15:59] <heno> hey
[15:59] <lool> hi there
[15:59] <slangasek> morning
[15:59] <Riddell> ho
[16:00] <dendrobates> o/
[16:02] <pgraner> Hey
[16:03] <lool> slangasek: Bumped bug #281610 to RC in the last hours
[16:03] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 281610 in xorg-server "[regression, intrepid] Xorg servers broken "No core keyboard" and "failed to initialize core devices"" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/281610
[16:04] <slangasek> ok
[16:04] <lool> Xorg unusable on plenty of ports and xvfb failing the builds
[16:05] <sbeattie> hey
[16:05] <slangasek> 'lo
[16:06] <slangasek> ok - ScottK says he's going to be about 20 minutes late; I've pung mdz and cjwatson, so hopefully they'll be along soon - let's get started
[16:06] <slangasek> #startmeeting
[16:06] <MootBot> Meeting started at 10:06. The chair is slangasek.
[16:06] <MootBot> Commands Available: [TOPIC], [IDEA], [ACTION], [AGREED], [LINK], [VOTE]
[16:07] <slangasek> [TOPIC] Outstanding actions
[16:07] <MootBot> New Topic: Outstanding actions
[16:07] <cjwatson> here, sorry
[16:08] <slangasek> let's batch through these quickly; several of these were still outstanding as of a few hours ago, at least
[16:08] <slangasek> * follow-up discussion about bug 273833 on #ubuntu-devel
[16:08] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 273833 in v86d "v86d missing from initramfs" [High,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/273833
[16:09] <pgraner> slangasek: we reverted backto vesafb from uvesafb
[16:09] <slangasek> I see there was some further discussion in the bug log and it was marked as invalid, but I'm not sure whether it's actually been resolved to everyone's satisfaction?
[16:09] <cjwatson> the tail of the bug seems unsatisfactory :-/
[16:09] <mdz> slangasek: I'm here
[16:09] <slangasek> mdz: heya
[16:10] <pitti> usplash works fine again even with my external monitor now
[16:10] <slangasek> mdz's comment in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/v86d/+bug/273833/comments/14 in particular suggests that this isn't altogether solved
[16:10] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 273833 in v86d "v86d missing from initramfs" [High,Invalid]
[16:11] <slangasek> do we need to reopen the bug for another look?
[16:11] <slangasek> pgraner: thoughts?
[16:11] <mdz> slangasek: I made a pass over all of the kernel bugs and summarized in email, I'm forwarding you the thread now
[16:12] <slangasek> mdz: great, thanks
[16:12] <pgraner> slangasek: its my understanding by reverting back to vesafb we are same as hardy again.
[16:12] <mdz> slangasek: I'm a little concerned that reverting may unmask regressions which weren't found earlier
[16:12] <mdz> but I don't know
[16:12] <BenC> mdz: reverting?
[16:12] * BenC is jumping in the middle here
[16:12] <mdz> BenC: uvesafb->uvesafb
[16:12] <mdz> er
[16:12] <mdz> ->vesafb
[16:12] <BenC> ah
[16:13] <BenC> mdz: considering vesafb hasn't changed since pre-hardy, the possibility of regression is very low
[16:13] <cjwatson> I'm certainly *happier* with having vesafb than I am with uvesafb
[16:13] * ScottK is here. It turns out I didn't need the time I'd budgeted for "Wait for the teenager to be ready".
[16:13] <mdz> my understanding is that we've gone from vesafb (disabled by default, used by some people) to uvesafb (never worked unless manually fixed up, even for people who had enabled vesafb) to vesafb again (re-enabling it for people who had it turned on)
[16:13] <cjwatson> since we already knew intrepid was regressing for people
[16:13] <BenC> Yeah, uvesafb was actually causing boot hangs in some cases
[16:13] <mdz> as long as it doesn't get worse for people who were using vesafb, and not many people have it turned on, it should hopefully be OK
[16:14] <BenC> mdz: No, we had vesafb disabled completely
[16:14] <BenC> mdz: and even for people who didn't use uvesafb, it was still causing problems
[16:14] <mdz> BenC: if someone added vga= in hardy, and is now upgrading to intrepid, they'll continue to have it enabled
[16:14] <mdz> but will not have tested it since the switch to uvesafb
[16:14] <BenC> vga= != vesafb
[16:15] <mdz> for x in $(cat /proc/cmdline); do
[16:15] <mdz> case ${x} in
[16:15] <mdz> vga=*)
[16:15] <mdz> FB="vesafb";
[16:15] <mdz> OPTS="";
[16:15] <mdz> ;;
[16:15] <cjwatson> case ${x} in
[16:15] <mdz> BenC: /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/init-top/framebuffer
[16:15] <cjwatson> vga=*)
[16:15] <cjwatson> FB="vesafb";
[16:15] <cjwatson> err, what he said :)
[16:15] <BenC> I understand, but if uvesafb was loaded, it handled vga=
[16:16] <BenC> maybe I misunderstand what you meant
[16:16] <BenC> yes, it will continue to work in intrepid now that vesafb is there
[16:16] <mdz> BenC: my point is that we essentially switched off vesafb for the whole cycle, and are now re-enabling it
[16:17] <mdz> we don't know if it has regressed during that time
[16:17] <BenC> mdz: true, but as noted, it hasn't changed code wise at all
[16:17] <mdz> my gut feeling is that few people use vga=
[16:17] <mdz> so I think this is probably an acceptable risk, but wanted to call it out for review
[16:17] <pgraner> BenC: other things around it have changed that might cause problems
[16:17] <cjwatson> my gut feeling is that this is the lesser of two evils
[16:17] * BenC agrees
[16:17] <mdz> ok then
[16:18] <cjwatson> mdz: vga= use was increased because it used to be available in the gfxboot menu, BTW
[16:18] <slangasek> ok; moving on then
[16:18] <cjwatson> it no longer is, but it's still in some people's menu.lst as a result
[16:18] <pgraner> BenC: Need you to take point on any bugs that come in on this and jump on them right away
[16:18] <slangasek> * pitti to discuss a fresh langpack -base upload with Arne, related to bug #273489
[16:18] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 273489 in rosetta "Remaining Intrepid template approvals" [Critical,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/273489
[16:18] <BenC> pgraner: got it
[16:18] <slangasek> pitti: I think this part was done, right?
[16:18] <pitti> ROsetta is currently doing a full export
[16:18] <cjwatson> there's still a blockage on the KDE language packs being fixed
[16:18] <pitti> Arne will upload on his morning, I'll approve them from the queue on my morning, so they can build over the weekend.
[16:18] <cjwatson> I have a summary in my paste
[16:19] <pgraner> [ACTION] BenC to take point on any bugs that come in on vesafb and jump on them right away
[16:19] <pitti> oh, they are still not approved? I thought that was done now
[16:19] <slangasek> [ACTION] BenC to take point on any bugs that come in on vesafb and jump on them right away
[16:19] <MootBot> ACTION received: BenC to take point on any bugs that come in on vesafb and jump on them right away
[16:19] <cjwatson> pitti: they are, but there's a bit of faff involving the language-pack flag that wasn't getting set
[16:20] <cjwatson> anyway, later
[16:20] <slangasek> ok, let's defer that part of the discussion down to the Foundations team slot
[16:20] <slangasek> * desktop team to follow up on bug 145360
[16:20] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 145360 in compiz "compiz.real crashed with SIGSEGV" [Unknown,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/145360
[16:20] <slangasek> I looked at the bug and saw lots and lots of follow-up from people /not/ on the desktop team... :)
[16:20] <pitti> Michael talked with upstream, and nobody has a true solution right now; however, the crash consistently happen
[16:20] <pitti> s on logout only, so once we disable apport, it won't actually be a pressing issue.
[16:21] <slangasek> ok
[16:21] <slangasek> * pgraner to look into firmware in restricted vs. main (279669/269926)
[16:21] <pitti> other than that there wasn't much progress, I'm afraid :(
[16:21] <cjwatson> that should be sorted
[16:21] <slangasek> pgraner: I closed one of these bugs because I know it's fixed, I wasn't sure about the other
[16:21] <cjwatson> I've taught the installer to include the new package names
[16:21] <pgraner> slangasek: BenC was doing the work
[16:21] <pgraner> BenC: can you comment?

[16:23] <mdz> slangasek: cjwatson passed these to me, but just a few hours ago and I've not had a chance to do anything yet
[16:23] <cjwatson> I did a bit of X (one of them turned out to be a regression in gtk, which I punted over there with a suggestion it be fixed post-release), but punted the rest to mdz recently
[16:24] <mdz> at this point I'd much rather give them away (have bryce and asac already reviewed them?)
[16:24] <cjwatson> I also asked asac to look through the NM list, since it turned out he hadn't seen it yet
[16:24] <slangasek> alrighty
[16:24] <mdz> but I will do it if no one els ecan

[16:26] <BenC> I'll review and upload if everything is ok
[16:26] <mdz> kernel freeze was yesterday
[16:27] <ScottK> persia mentioned to me that they were needing some more testing, I think.
[16:27] <BenC> mdz: this doesn't affect our kernel source
[16:27] <ScottK> Probably ready tomorrow
[16:27] <mdz> BenC: separate source package in universe?
[16:27] <persia> Rather, that I was likely to upload tomorrow with more testing if the action item wasn't done by the kernel team.
[16:27] <slangasek> mdz: yes
[16:27] <BenC> mdz: right, build-deps on the main source
[16:27] <cjwatson> the original purpose of kernel freeze was to let us build CDs, which isn't something linux-rt would break
[16:27] <cjwatson> and d-i
[16:28] <mdz> even so, we do have pressing work to do on the main kernel which should take priority
[16:28] <persia> Well, it would break the Ubuntu Studio DVD, but that has a workaround in place for now anyway.
=== dholbach_ is now known as dholbach
[16:28] <cjwatson> persia doing it would avoid that problem, if the kernel team is happy with him doing that and if davidm can spare him
[16:29] <BenC> I'm happy trusting persia to to just upload
[16:29] <persia> OK. I'll just confirm with the two members of MOTU Release who were testing, and push that. Happy to take an action on it.

[16:40] <pitti> ok; in general, pieces are coming together, lots of bug fixing last week
[16:40] <pitti> Specs: all done, no further changes planned
[16:40] <pitti> RC Bugs:
[16:40] <pitti> - #278112 (screensaver doesn't start with compiz): patch available and got positive testing; I built a package with the patch, works fine for me, too; Michael has some other fixes, he'll talk to upstream about the patc
[16:40] <pitti> h and upload today
[16:40] <pitti> - #269904 (nvidia/compiz problems): compiz workaround uploaded today, actual bug in nvidia driver remains, but is not RC any more
[16:40] <pitti> - #274639 (jockey crash): I already believed this to be fixed until yesterday, when more reports came up; looks easy to fix, I'll just need to grab half an hour on it
[16:40] <pitti> - #212098 (nautilus-share not notifying about required session restarting): We agreed on how a solution should look like and posted it to the bug report; a community member, Didier Roche (didrocks) said he'd work on this.
[16:40] <pitti> - #280997 (KDE4 bluetooth breakage): upstream currently does not have time to do the porting; Mario is working on it, but his port might not arrive in time. Riddell currently plans to fix this in an SRU.
[16:40] <pitti> oops, 212908 is actually a bit stale
[16:41] <slangasek> yes, 212908 is hardy carry-over :/
[16:41] <pitti> he didn't manage to work on it, but it's not really an RC bug any more, I think
[16:41] <pitti> the workaround with the default "sambashare" group at least helps
[16:41] <pitti> Intrusive changes:
[16:41] <pitti> - GNOME 2.24.1 is due on October 22, the Sebmaster and his little packaging army are standing by
[16:41] <pitti> On further notes, I worked on archive consistency today, particularly on component-mismatches. I roughly kille
[16:41] <pitti> d half of the "source/binary main promotions", but there is lots of more work to do. Assistance appreciated.
[16:41] <pitti> [end of report]
[16:41] <slangasek> however, the user still has to re-authenticate to PAM at least once in order for the shares to be usable
[16:41] <seb128> speaking about 2.24.1 is that ok if I approve my own uploads?
[16:42] <pitti> slangasek: really? even if he already was in sambashare?
[16:42] <seb128> they will likely package some tarballs rolled early during the weekend
[16:42] <slangasek> seb128: please have the release team review them so we know what's changing
[16:43] <slangasek> pitti: yes; until libpam-smbpass is installed, there's no SMB password hash for the user
[16:43] <slangasek> pitti: (otherwise I would've closed out the bug already)
[16:43] <pitti> ah, I see
[16:43] <seb128> slangasek: hum ok, so no point for me to work during the weekend to get early testing I guess
[16:43] <slangasek> seb128: I'll be around this weekend
[16:43] <pitti> slangasek: so why did we actually put in that "sambshare group by default" into the installer?
[16:43] <cjwatson> please also *don't* push GNOME 2.24.1 through on Oct 22
[16:43] <pitti> slangasek: I guess that dialog will add the user to sambashare anyway
[16:43] <slangasek> pitti: so that the user doesn't have to logout/login in order to *configure* the shares
[16:43] <pitti> slangasek: ah, ok
[16:44] <slangasek> initgroups(), etc
[16:44] <cjwatson> do what you can on Oct 20, or leave it in the queue until after the RC is out
[16:44] <pitti> slangasek: I'll talk to didrocks again, but at this point I don't think we'll squeeze in a patch by intrepid
[16:44] <slangasek> pitti: but let's take the rest to the bug then
[16:44] <slangasek> ok
[16:44] <cjwatson> I'll be out on Saturday but around some of Sunday
[16:44] <pitti> slangasek: agreed
[16:44] <slangasek> 280997 in SRU> unfortunate :/
[16:45] <pgraner> slangasek: need to add a Desktop one... I can't hold until the end
[16:45] <slangasek> but AIUI, unavoidable if we wanted bluetooth working for intrepid

[17:01] <MootBot> ACTION received: slangasek to review/milestone 261318
[17:02] <slangasek> ok, overall questions: are these targeted bugs an accurate representation of what the kernel team is working on right now, and are they a realistic workload for between now and release (considering we're past kernel freeze and have only very small windows for kernel uploads between now and final)?
[17:02] <pgraner> do we have any Preseario HW in house?
[17:03] <heno> pgraner: not in Montreal
[17:03] <BenC> hehe, 267295 has a scan of a hand written back trace
[17:03] <mdz> dedication
[17:03] <pgraner> slangasek: for the most part, we have not been looking at the Preseario ones at all other than asking to test on newer revs
[17:03] <BenC> first time for that
[17:04] <heno> and I don't turn up many with a general LP search either
[17:04] * pgraner mutters this is where a hw db is invaluable
[17:05] <heno> none at all for S6010V (appart from the one mentioned on that bug)
[17:05] <heno> pgraner: agreed
[17:05] <BenC> After talking with rtg, I wonder how many of our mysterious crashes will go away once FTRACE is disabled
[17:05] <slangasek> ok, so the S6010V is definitely not milestoning material at least
[17:05] <rtg> BenC: those will be hard to pin on that root cause.
[17:06] <pgraner> BenC: good point, what does it buys us if we leave it enabled
[17:06] <mdz> rtg: Keybuk says he had some success debugging 263059
[17:06] <mdz> and has updated the bufg
[17:06] <slangasek> BenC, rtg: in that case, when can we get the ftrace change uploaded so we can have people re-test?
[17:06] <rtg> mdz: definitely.
[17:06] <slangasek> is disabling ftrace an ABI bump?
[17:06] <rtg> nope
[17:06] <heno> slangasek: agreed
[17:06] <Keybuk> rtg: it looks to me (reading the code) that the driver leaves the pci device disabled
[17:06] <Keybuk> and only enables it if the kill switch is off
[17:06] <rtg> Keybuk: correct
[17:06] <BenC> pgraner: It buys us nothing on usability
[17:07] <Keybuk> and that state really upsets the kernel if it's init'ing another pci driver at the same time
[17:07] <BenC> it's meant to help debug the kernel
[17:07] <pgraner> BenC: if there are no abi concerns lets up it disabled and uploaded.
[17:07] <BenC> Keybuk: kernel should be doing ref-counting on disable/enable though
[17:07] <mdz> BenC: from the documentation, it seems meant to help all sorts of debugging, not just the kernel itself
[17:07] <rtg> slangasek: its in 2.6.27.y stable tree as well.
[17:08] <mdz> but it is presumably a new feature in 2.6.27 so I'm not attached to it
[17:08] <pgraner> BenC: when doing new features we need to have a test plan and test coverage *early* to avoid this late cycle crap
[17:08] <rtg> pgraner: we get new features with every kernel.
[17:08] <BenC> pgraner: FTRACE has been enabled all cycle
[17:08] <cr3> pgraner: it would be nice if these tests could be automated in the form of command line scripts
[17:09] <BenC> pgraner: plus this sort of thing is hard to unit test
[17:09] <slangasek> AIUI ftrace is meant to be a replacement for ptrace, /eventually/; userspace isn't there in intrepid, so that really buys us nothing to have it enabled
[17:09] <cr3> pgraner: and I don't think autotest is sufficiently reliable to cover new features, I think it is more like a rite of passage
[17:09] <rtg> slangasek: we definitely need a kernel upload today.
[17:09] <pgraner> rtg: yep and we need evaluate to see if they give us anything, we are at the point that thking things in just cuz they are free seem to cause more issues more times than they are worth, unless we are committed to debug, test & patch
[17:09] <slangasek> rtg: ok
[17:10] <BenC> Ok, if we are doing a kernel upload today, then we need to conclude the fate of tlsup and toshiba_acpi
[17:10] <pgraner> BenC: status of each pls?
[17:10] <slangasek> pgraner: did you see the question earlier, about whether the targeted bug list accurately reflects what the team is working on, and if this workload is manageable?
[17:10] <Keybuk> BenC, rtg: what I find vaguely interesting is that the wireless card PCI device actually *goes away* when you toggle the kill switch
[17:10] <BenC> mdz: You mentioned that toshiba_acpi needed acpi-support changes, but I think you may have been confusing the bug about modprobe options that weren't compatible with the unpatched toshiba_acpi
[17:10] <pgraner> slangasek: I answered above
[17:11] <Keybuk> sufficiently that an ifconfig on it returns "No such device"
[17:11] <mdz> BenC: I remember it needed some userland fixing, which we opted not to do as we were switching to tlsup
[17:11] <slangasek> pgraner: sorry, I'm not sure what line was an answer to that then
[17:11] <mdz> BenC: did you look up the bug number(s)?
[17:11] <slangasek> pgraner: "for the most part", I guess?
[17:12] <BenC> mdz: No, I'm just going on recollection of when tlsup was switched to
[17:12] <pgraner> slangasek: We are working on all but the Preseario ones due to no hardware and lack of response from the testers, we have asked for output on command and nothing (in one of the bugs) didn't look that deep in the other
[17:12] <slangasek> ok
[17:12] <mdz> BenC: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/183883

[17:13] <mdz> is one I found with a quick search
[17:13] <mdz> I think there may have been others
[17:13] <BenC> mdz: that's the one I was referring to. Using the patched version of toshiba_acpi like we've had in hardy in prior, that problem goes away
[17:13] <mdz> BenC: so that problem was actually caused by dropping a toshiba_acpi patch, rather than the switch to tlsup?
[17:14] <mdz> that one was reported against hardy btw
[17:14] <BenC> mdz: correct, the patch to toshiba_acpi had to be forward ported for some kthread changes, which I did before switching to tlsup
[17:14] <rtg> mdz: the orignal patch didn't compile, so we dropped it in the transition to Intrepid.
[17:14] <slangasek> let's move on, further toshiba discussion out-of-band please

[17:45] <pitti> slangasek: size-wise they actually seem ok
[17:45] <pitti> although they don't have much room for langpacks any more
[17:46] <slangasek> I do think we need to shove some more langpacks on there, before the desktop team beats us to eating up the space <cough> :)
[17:46] <slangasek> but getting rid of webkit definitely helped
[17:46] <seb128> pitti: should we split the evolution documentation?
[17:46] <Riddell> slangasek: langpacks may grow in size when complete ones appear
[17:46] <pitti> if we can still achieve that, it woudl certainly be good
[17:46] <Riddell> KDE ones certainly, gnome ones probably less so
[17:47] <pitti> the GNOME langpacks shouldn't grow a lot any more, though
[17:47] <slangasek> Riddell: yeah :/
[17:47] <slangasek> it's been the Ubuntu disks that we've been fighting size on this cycle, though, Kubuntu has been doing ok AFAIK
[17:47] <slangasek> or you've been fixing the problems before I notice them :)
[17:48] <slangasek> anyway, you guys have 30-40MB more to play with for langpacks
[17:48] <slangasek> so hopefully that turns out ok
[17:48] <slangasek> anyway, I'll do the langpack shuffle today or over the weekend on the Ubuntu disks
[17:48] <Riddell> yes, Kubuntu has lots of space, I havn't added many langpacks yet (doesn't seem like much point until they contain something)
[17:48] <slangasek> [ACTION] slangasek to shove langpacks onto the Ubuntu CDs to fill them up
[17:48] <MootBot> ACTION received: slangasek to shove langpacks onto the Ubuntu CDs to fill them up
