[01:24] <shwag> so I installed a kernel image and now I regret it. How do I put grub back to the old kernel ?
[01:54] <knix_> i am having php woes here, anyone help?
[01:57] <knix_> i had a perfectly good lamp server running until about an hour ago.  Now php want to download the php file rather than displaying it.   I have tried everything to reinstalling php5, apache2, and libapache2-mod-php5.  Please guys, i am very desperate here
[08:25] <dsdg> halo, i hope there are some gurus here,
[08:26] <dsdg> im a gentoo guy, thats rebuilding my infrastructure on ubuntu, because bossman thinkst it's the shit, got the server up, impressed with the install btw, how do i add/remove services from automatic startup?
[08:29] <foo> hmm
[08:30] <dsdg> you must be joking right?
[08:30] <foo> Uh. no
[08:30] <dsdg> in gentoo i do rc-update add service name runlevel
[08:30] <dsdg> or rc-update del service name runlevel
[08:30] <dsdg> how the crap can you run this on a server without getting frustrated?
[08:30] <foo> Right, it's not hard. I just forgot the command.
[08:31] <foo> dsdg: heh. Chill. You're frustrated because you don't know ;)
[08:31] <dsdg> foo, :)
[08:31] <dsdg> ok, i am chilled :) was just thinking out loud, sorry buddy dont mean to tense you up,
[08:32] <dsdg> it's friday and im cool, just want to do stuff get this server up and ready so i can go home :)
[08:32] <dsdg> but you can find out how to do that right?
[08:32] <dsdg> ;)
[08:32] <foo> Yeah, one minute
[08:33] <dsdg> thank goodness :)
[08:34] <foo> Aha!
[08:34] <foo> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=89491
[08:34] <foo> sysv-rc-conf
[08:34] <foo> I knew it was sys something
[08:41] <dsdg> thank you, busy reading it now,
[08:42] <foo> ok
[08:44] <dsdg> Package sysv-rc-conf is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[08:44] <dsdg> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[08:44] <dsdg> is only available from another source
[08:44] <dsdg> E: Package sysv-rc-conf has no installation candidate
[08:44] <foo> hmm
[08:45] <dsdg> damn man, this cant be,
[08:46] <foo> hmm.
[08:46] <foo> apt-get update
[08:46] <foo> then try
[08:47] <dsdg> i did,
[08:48] <foo> hmm, ok
[08:55] <dsdg> is there no way else?
[09:02] <fabbione> man update-rc.d
[09:02] <fabbione> don't use that crap
[09:02] <fabbione> the sysv-rc-conf thingy i mean
[09:03] <infinity> sysv-rc-conf is in universe.
[09:03] <infinity> Though I don't recommend its use.
[09:04] <fabbione> and i should be in bed.. too restless to lay more
[09:04] <dsdg> no i will use update-rc.d
[09:04] <dsdg> it's 10 am here in cape town south africa..
[09:19] <dsdg> i am doing everything in console, so how can i search apt? like i want to install mc, and apache, but how do i tell apt apache1 or apache2? and to compile with mysql support?
[10:06] <infinity> "compile with mysql support"?
[10:06] <infinity> This isn't Gentoo.
[10:06] <infinity> As for picking the right apache, read package descriptions? :)
[10:06] <infinity> (apt-cache search apache, followed by, say, apt-cache show apache2-mpm-prefork, which is probably what you want, if you intend to use php...)
[10:08] <infinity> If you wanted a typical LAMP setup, you might be looking for "apt-get install apache2-mpm-prefork apache2 libapache2-mod-php5 php5 php5-mysql mysql-server"
[10:15] <dsdg> infinity, damn right this isnt gentoo ;) anycase, i got it, like the symlink to enable modules, quite cool,
[02:34] <foo> Hm, I am looking at iostat and the disk is reading 13539 blocks a second and writing 39 blocks a second. Does this sound like a lot of disk usage?

[09:39] <shwag> Where is the cronjob that launches the mysql debian-sys-maint job ?


[08:52] <AlanBell> Unity TV designs are rocking! http://people.ubuntu.com/~mhall119/utv/
[09:46] <kamstrup> mhr3: if you can tell me why lp:~kamstrup/libunity/trace-log doesn't compile you will earn the title of Today's Rockstar
[09:47] <kamstrup> I've tried dumping this file http://paste.ubuntu.com/755832/ in src/ and compiled it as described inside it
[09:47] <mhr3> kamstrup, only if you upgrade it to "This week's Rockstar"
[09:47] <kamstrup> and it works snuggly
[09:47] <kamstrup> mhr3: deal!
[09:48] <kamstrup> mhr3: you should get errors ala "unity-appinfo-manager.c:91:2: error: unknown type name 'UnityAppInfoManager'"
[09:48] <kamstrup> all over the palce
[09:48] <kamstrup> place
[09:49] <kamstrup> mhr3: sorry, just pushing up a rev you'll need
[09:51] <mhr3> yep, i do get that
[09:56] <mhr3> wtf
[09:57] <kamstrup> mhr3: added a fixme to your mp
[10:02] <mhr3> kamstrup, we should have the previews call now, right?
[10:03] <kamstrup> mhr3: seems njpatel pushed till tommorow
[10:03] <mhr3> oh?
[10:03] <kamstrup> mhr3: in any case, you don't have time for that now, you must fix my stinking code! ;-)
[10:04] <mhr3> cool, postponing it is good :)
[10:05] <mhr3> kamstrup, i think there's something wrong in the vapi
[10:05] <mhr3> not sure what though
[10:06] <kamstrup> mhr3: that was my suspicion, but the test I pasted works like a charm...
[10:07] <kamstrup> mhr3: but it's the C compiler which complains
[10:07] <mhr3> kamstrup, got it, you've overridden the header name for Unity namespace
[10:07] <kamstrup> mhr3: removing the --pkg unity-trace-log in Makefile.am and commenting out the sole line we test it with makes things work again
[10:08] <mhr3> you want to set it for the Trace namespace, not Unity
[10:08] <kamstrup> mhr3: !
[10:09] <mhr3> am i a rockstart or what?
[10:09]  * kamstrup hugs mhr3!
[10:09] <kamstrup> rock on dude
[10:09] <kamstrup> it works now :-D
[10:09] <mhr3> awesome
[10:28] <kamstrup> mhr3: at your mercy https://code.launchpad.net/~kamstrup/libunity/trace-log/+merge/84080
[10:29] <kamstrup> mhr3: did you see my fixme to the simple-dbus branch?
[10:29] <mhr3> kamstrup, not yet, give me a sec
[10:30] <mhr3> ah, right
[10:31] <mhr3> those versioning stuff could use some autoconf magic
[10:34] <kamstrup> mhr3: indeed, but leave that for later, let's get it in
[10:39] <kamstrup> mhr3: we also need a plan on how to upgrade u2d and u3d to the new search protocol
[10:40] <kamstrup> if we'relucky it's all handled in libunity-core...
[10:40] <mhr3> kamstrup, i've looked at unity, it will need patching (not just unity-core)
[10:40] <kamstrup> mhr3: don't forget u2d either
[10:41] <mhr3> yea, i've been talking to greyback about it
[10:41] <kamstrup> cool
[13:48] <fredo> Hello!
[13:49] <fredo> A small group of people, including me, is currently working on a contacts lens for the Unity dash.
[13:50] <fredo> As we currently work on the design, one question came up:
[13:50] <fredo> Which is the best way to create icons for search results on the fly?
[13:52] <fredo> We could create temporary files on the disk and pass the path to the lens, but is there also a way to draw icons directly? Like creating a GIcon from cairo or something like that?
[19:14] <cyphermox> tedg: poke. was it you who told me about a way to get a dbus-daemon to get spawned properly when running tests at build time?
[19:14] <tedg> cyphermox, Sure, use dbust-test-runner :-)
[19:14] <cyphermox> ok, I was about to try that out ;)
[19:15] <tedg> cyphermox, It does all the hard work for you
[19:15] <cyphermox> fun
[19:15] <cyphermox> you have an example that's not upstream code?
[19:15] <tedg> What do you mean?
[19:15] <tedg> The libindicator and dbusmenu test suites both use it.
[19:15] <tedg> Along with the dbus-test-runner test suite itself.
[19:16] <cyphermox> ok
[19:16] <cyphermox> I was meaning something that's called in debian/rules, rather than something I need to patch in upstream code
[19:16] <tedg> cyphermox, the libindicator one does dbus activation, which is something you might need.
[19:16] <cyphermox> ok, I'll take a look at libindicator
[19:17] <tedg> cyphermox, Oh, no.  Well, it's all just rules in the tests/Makefile.am.  I guess they could be in debian/rules just as easily.
[19:17] <cyphermox> ok, I thought it had already been done before that way
[19:18] <tedg> It's OSS, so I can't say it hasn't, but I haven't done it that way :-)
[19:18] <cyphermox> alright ;)
[19:18] <cyphermox> thanks!
[19:18]  * cyphermox is turning back on tests in NM
[19:19] <cyphermox> ah, won't work, it's not in main
[19:23] <tedg> cyphermox, We're working on fixing that ;-)
[19:23] <cyphermox> ah, is it completely new in precise?
[19:24] <cyphermox> also, is there already a mir bug or should I write one?
[19:30] <cyphermox> tedg: awesome, it seems to be working just fine for what I want to do; now at least the tests run and pass
[19:31] <tedg> cyphermox, We're collecting all the test tools we need and going for one big push.
[19:31] <tedg> cyphermox, It's on the list.
[19:31] <cyphermox> mkay
[19:31] <cyphermox> then what is your time frame for having it in main?
[19:32] <tedg> cyphermox, I'm hoping in the next couple weeks, but it's more a time thing than anything.
[19:32] <cyphermox> ok
[19:32] <cyphermox> if dbus-test-runner is already ready I don't mind writing the MIR and running with it, if it helps instead of you having a bunch of things to push all at once
[19:33] <kenvandine> cyphermox, there is already an MIR bug for it
[19:33] <kenvandine> i think
[19:33] <cyphermox> but it's also not rush for me, since it's test for something where Canonical isn't the upstream
[19:33] <cyphermox> kenvandine: ok
[19:34] <kenvandine> bug 890428
[19:34] <kenvandine> i marked it won't fix because i decided we didn't need it in main right now
[19:34] <kenvandine> feel free to re-open it
[19:34] <cyphermox> ok
[19:34] <kenvandine> cyphermox, i did recently get it running it's test suite in the package build and it should be good to go
[19:34] <cyphermox> what would you use it for?
[19:34] <kenvandine> gwibber
[19:34] <cyphermox> ok
[19:35] <cyphermox> I can use it in NM easily
[19:35] <kenvandine> great
[19:35] <cyphermox> (and it's much simpler than mucking around in test makefiles
[19:35] <kenvandine> it is useful
[19:35] <cyphermox> override_dh_auto_test:  dbus-test-runner -t dh_auto_test
[19:39] <cyphermox> were you planning on adding more stuff to that bug report? I just reopened it
[19:40] <cyphermox> uh-oh, my cold's 'sed -e s/b/m/g' effect is showing up in typed text :/
[19:42] <kenvandine> nope, looks good


[01:32] <jrwren> can I remove a bootloader from my first system disk and will the bios look to the second disk for a boot loader?
[01:33] <snap-l> jrwren: I think it depends on the bios, and what you're using (IDE, SATA, etc)
[01:34] <snap-l> I don't think there's a hard-and-fast rule in the bios for what boot order it would handle
[01:47] <jrwren> ICH10 AHCI SATA
[02:02] <snap-l> Pyweek is underway
[02:04] <jrwren> what is it?
[02:57] <snap-l> It's a one-week Python game writing competition
[03:18] <rick_h_> :party
[13:19] <rick_h_> heh, Chris submitted lococast to reddit, upvotes appreciated: http://www.reddit.com/r/Python/comments/t995y/lococast_podcast_episode_24_pyramidrelated_content/
[13:20] <rick_h_> 448212
[13:57] <brousch> done
[14:02] <snap-l> Good morning
[14:02] <snap-l> (and done too)
[15:12] <greg-g> upboated
[15:33] <brousch> greg-g: bought a canoe to replace the kayak?
[15:47] <greg-g> :)
[15:49] <brousch> speaking of, have you been out on the bay?
[16:00] <greg-g> on the bay? nope, not since I went to alcatraz with my parents 4 years ago
[17:30] <wolfger> Whassup?
[17:30] <rick_h_> party
[17:31] <wolfger> I miss the parties here
[17:31] <wolfger> Chrysler's firewall sucks :-p
[18:29] <wolfger> gah. Looks like I've semi-bricked my phone. Anybody familiar with cm7 on Captivate by any chance?
[18:30] <wolfger> phone boots and can use wifi (but won't remember wifi password on reboot), but looks like it's not reading sim card at all. I have no phone number, no apn, etc. I now have a very small wifi-only tablet :-p
[20:41] <brousch> hm
[20:41] <brousch> never ran into that
[22:16] <greg-g> wolfger: eek. never rooted my phone so can't help other than to feel bad :/
[22:55] <snap-l> Hey, look what the internet brought in: wolfger
[23:10] <rick_h_> dammit, how can I test this if the page to test against isn't going to be avail online?
[23:29] <jrwren> rick_h_: https://bmark.us/recent/jrwren?count=50&page=7  i can't just jump to a page offset, but if I start at zero and page 7 times I can :(
[23:29] <rick_h_> jrwren: https://bmark.us/jrwren/recent?count=50&page=7
[23:29] <rick_h_> api is username/$action
[23:29] <jrwren> indeed.
[23:30] <jrwren> yet something was throwing out what i just pasted.
[23:30] <jrwren> somehow that is what got put into my browser.
[23:30] <jrwren> I'll pay closer attn next time
[23:30] <rick_h_> jrwren: hmm, yea let me know
[23:30] <jrwren> try to figure what did it.
[23:30] <rick_h_> bascically recent/jrwen got you the root/recent with jrwren as a tag
[23:30] <jrwren> yup
[23:31] <rick_h_> like https://bmark.us/recent/python
[23:31] <jrwren> which is not at all what I wanted, but somehow what got there.
[23:31] <rick_h_> hmm, yea let me know and I'll tweak it. All tests green so probably missing some edge case somewhere
[23:31] <jrwren> oh wait.
[23:31] <jrwren> click mine at the top.
[23:31] <jrwren> then click next to page.
[23:32] <rick_h_> oh yep, so the pagitation stuff is generating urls wrong
[23:32] <rick_h_> thanks
[23:32] <jrwren> should I file a bug, and where should I? github?
[23:32] <rick_h_> filing it now
[23:32] <jrwren> ok, thanks.
[23:33] <jrwren> you are too nice to file it yourself.
[23:33] <jrwren> you should be making end users do it :)
[23:33] <rick_h_> https://github.com/mitechie/Bookie/issues/154
[23:33] <rick_h_> I'm in the middle of something atm, but I'll make sure I get to that this week. I owe you and greg-g bug fixes
[23:33] <rick_h_> almost have my new readability port done though so trying to clean it up
[23:33] <jrwren> man, you don't owe me nothing!
[23:34] <rick_h_> heh, broken is bad :)
[23:34] <jrwren> if anything, I should be sending you a patch.
[23:34] <rick_h_> heh, well if it makes you feel better it's probably a swapping of prams in a single string in the PagerModel JS
[23:35] <rick_h_> at least first guess
[23:36] <rick_h_> nvm, it's not that simple doh
[23:57] <rick_h_> bwuhahaha, if even forking fails...NIH to the max! https://github.com/mitechie/breadability
