Bug#354490: RFP: multiseat
On Wed, Jul 05, 2006 at 06:08:51PM -0700, Matt Taggart wrote: I noticed your comments in #354490 about multiseat maybe not quite being ready for primetime (back in May).

It would be nice to be able to support this in etch. Hi, Nothing's changed on this front. multiseat hasn't seen any serious attention since about March 2005, and I don't expect it will unless some seriously interested party picks up the pieces and: * better integrates it with the current xorg and gdm configurations, * investigates wider support (e.g. on ATI, Intel). I'm no longer working on Ubuntu or Debian stuff at all, so I haven't been looking at it. Sorry. Cheers, Daniel signature.asc Description: Digital signature
Bug#354490: Not as straightforward as you think
Hi, I'm the primary author/ex-maintainer of multiseat. I'd like to request that anyone who wants to package this for Debian, not do so unless: * you are either part of the X Strike Force already, or plan to collaborate very closely with them, * you have a good understanding of how the Xorg server works, and its configuration system. Due to lack of time/interest, the package never really evolved beyond 'gigantic hack' status, so it would need a lot of informed work to get it to being something maintainable. There's also a massive driver support issue: most cards are extremely fragile regarding resource routing in particular, and this is something not handled well by the multiple independent server case. I had very limited success (nVidia cards only with the binary-only nVidia driver, and only after they fixed strange bugs; some ATI cards, but not all -- a seemingly random selection) when testing over a range of cards. Co-ordination with the d-i team would also be needed, as this contains a udeb. However, I'm happy to answer any questions anyone might have about this package. Cheers, Daniel signature.asc Description: Digital signature

The main current problem is that currently, DRI freezes my machine on resolution changes (bug known since ages, as it appears, probably linked to VIA chipset). Which chipset? I have a KT400 which works just fine. OTOH, this version of the DRM is tightly coupled with the ATI.2 DRI driver for the X server, and this one was worked on by Matt Zimmermann at some date. And everyone knows that building an X driver is currently quite a tedious task. It could be better, it could be worse. I think Branden has merged Sven Luther's DDK patches, no? Maybe the X source package could integrate the ATI.2 sources, and build a package for it ? Currently, I build one manually, which diverts X-provided files before unpacking. Maybe the same approach could be taken there ? No. Debian-X people, what do you think of this ?

Bug#198602: ITP: debbackup -- Backup and restore Debian specifics (package status, conffiles)
Hi Marc! On Sun, Jun 29, 2003 at 10:43:14PM +0200, Marc Haber wrote: What you are proposing is a great idea that deserves careful planning. Let me ramble on for a minute. The backup script should probably call up a list of packages on the system, build from these list a list of files installed from packages. These files should be excluded from the Backup. It should also back up the partition table of the hard disk, and information about which file systems are in use. Doing actual backup is completely out of the scope of what I had planned - there are fantastic backup tools already. The debbackup script itself will only generate a tarball needed by debrestore - no more, no less. If you want to work on an Amanda interface, or a dedicated backup program, that's fine, but debrestore itself will continue to have a single, dedicated task, for setups where most data is shared (e.g. /home), or where perfectly good backup regimens already exist. The data generated this way could be written to CD images, or there could be an amanda interface that lets only the files that are not replaceable from a Debian mirror end up in the amanda archive. debbackup-mmddhhmm.tar.bz2 can already be written to a CD image. Restore procedure would boot from a CD (a dedicated recovery CD or the first CD of an image set created by debbackup). Yeah, a custom ISO has already been proposed - I think that's a fantastic idea. Next steps would be: - optionally restore hard disk partitioning - file system creation - mount file systems in a chroot - Use debootstrap to install a base system with working apt - dpkg --set-selections with the packet list backed up - apt-get -f install to install Packages and files - Restore of locally changed files and other data from the backup medium (using the CD images or amrecover). I would like to work with you on that package. I really appreciate your project and will certainly take a serious look into it when I get back online. I'll put up some sources when they're ready for consumption. Unfortunately, it's my understanding that 'guests' can't actually create Alioth projects, so I can't create it - I don't think I can ever actually commit it! I might be able to get a publically-accessible Subversion repository up, however. -- Daniel Stone [EMAIL PROTECTED] Developer, Trinity College, University of Melbourne pgp6TBhHEH74j.pgp Description: PGP signature

retitle 114398 ITP: dbtcp -- A client for the MS Windows ODBC proxy server thanks [Please reply to me, Cc'ing the list, as per the M-F-T header]. Hi all! Just a quick note to say that I've packaged up dbtcp, and am thus taking over the RFA (#114398). It was pretty fun to package - a PHP4 module that ostensibly needs to be built in-tree. However, it took a nice hand-hacked Makefile to make it build out-of-tree, and even then it has some fun issues. PHP4 installs to /usr/lib/php4/date, where date is probably the release date (it's 20020429, currently). I can work out the directory to install to (php-config --extension-dir), but how should I handle this in package relationships? If the date changes, php4-dbtcp suddenly becomes useless - PHP's looking in a different directory for its extensions. Anyway, the debs are at: deb http://www.trinity.unimelb.edu.au/~dstone/debian/ dbtcp/ deb-src http://www.trinity.unimelb.edu.au/~dstone/debian/ dbtcp/ Cheers! :) d -- Daniel Stone [EMAIL PROTECTED] Developer, Trinity College, University of Melbourne pgpY289zvJUVn.pgp Description: PGP signature

Bug#159919: Shouldn't be packaged
I packaged agt for a while; I was its original maintainer. During this time, upstream was ... unresponsive, to say the best. He promised initially to keep me well informed of releases, etc, since there was no mailing list at the time, which was nice. However, 3 upstream releases went by without any notification, and he was completely uncontactable for the best part of a year. After I just gave up and wrote my own init script because agt was so horrible and badly, badly broken, I decided to orphan it, and Steve picked it up. During this time, it had a few bugs, including that agt would segfault if every file didn't have a trailing newline. He was completely mystified by the (awful) code, and so handed it to Herbert Xu to look at. Herbert had no clue, and decided it was the worst code [he had] ever seen. So yeah, because of a combination of these, I don't think agt should be in Debian again. It's already previously been removed from the archive.
