-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 ... We create a new revision with D E as parents, and the contents of the later of the two (defined in terms of upstream version numbers). So, no, there is no possibility of conflicts at this stage. So you preserve the content of exactly D or E, you just generate a new node in the graph to supersede the other one, correct? Say D is the 'winner', then you end up with a patch that reverts everything in E. In the below graph, the content in H == D, so when generating I, we should see D as the common base, and I would then == F (because H - D == NULL, so there is nothing to apply to F to generate I) A /|\ E D B |\|\|\ | H F C \ \| | \ I | \ | \ | \| G Now you have a genuine criss-cross.

That's unfortunate. Is there a way we could use our increased knowledge about the revisions involved to merge with a strategy that would make this situation better? - --weave is one option. :) (or per-file merge which we've talked about many times but haven't found the cycles to implement.) Going further with the above example, it really depends on what you want. From what you've stated about whichever one wins, then you sort of simplify what you want. You explicitly stated that you are rejecting any of the 2.1 changes that weren't in 3.0. I'm having a bit of a hard time figuring out what you are trying to preserve in G, versus just telling it and now you are F/I. Would it be beneficial to have some concrete examples to try out? Thanks, James Probably. Examples can certainly shed light on confusing points.

Re: [Ubuntu-QC] Pilote pour cartes ATI
bienvenue dans la gimmick des jeux sur ordi ! -_- 2010/10/3 Dany Veilleux immorte...@hotmail.com Bonjour Gregory, Merci beaucoup pour ce partage d'information. Ca confirme mes craintes. J'ai perdu confiance en ATI, il y a plusieurs années lorsqu'ils avaient sorti un carte TV/Tuner et qui était voulu à de bonnes performances graphiques et avec les pilotes, c'était un ou l'autre, ils n'ont jamais réussi à faire des bons pilotes qui avaient les deux. Et je parle de sur Windows. Bref, ca répond à ma question merci beaucoup. J'ai essayé StarCraft 2 sur Windows sur ma machine et j'ai des performances pas mal supérieure à Wine sous Linux mais machine n'est quand même pas assez puissante. 700$ pour pouvoir jouer à un jeux, c'est quand même décourageant. :) Dany On Sun, 2010-10-03 at 17:47 -0400, Gregory Eric Sanderson wrote: J'ai 2 postes que j'utilise à tous les jours : - Ubuntu Nvidia, 2 moniteurs (mode twinview) : poste de bureau pour mon travail - Arch Linux ATI : laptop personnel Dans les 2 cas j'utilise les drivers propriétaires. Sur mon ubuntu je n'ai jamais eu de problèmes avec la carte graphique ou avec mes moniteurs. Les mises à jour se sont toujours fait sans souci, les options de configuration dans xorg.conf sont sainement configurable et semble bien s'intégrer avec le reste de ma config bizaroide (j'ai tendance à passer bcp de temps à tweaker toute ce qui se trouve dans /etc, et xorg.conf ne fait pas exception) et puis comme Samuel a mentionné, Nvidia tiens leurs drivers pas mal plus à jour qu'ATI (je vais donner un exemple un peu plus bas). En gros, je suis très satisfait avec Nvidia J'ai aussi eu une carte Nvidia pendant un petit moment sur une tour personelle (avant que le AC explose) avec Arch Linux ou je faisait un peu de gaming sous wine. Même si je n'ai pas gardé ce setup pendant longtemps, Les graphiques ont toujours été fluides, et les mises à jour sans problèmes En contre partie, sur mon laptop la situation est un cauchemar. Arch Linux est une distribution basé sur le modèle du rolling release. En bref dès qu'une nouvelle version d'un logiciel est disponible elle est ajouté aux dépôts, ce qui veut dire que des mises à jour de Xorg arrivent souvent. Par contre, Catalyst (le nom du driver propriétaire d'ATI) ne se tient pas tout aussi à jour. On ne sait jamais quand est-ce qu'une nouvelle version du driver va sortir, et quand elle sort, on est certain à 90 % du temps qu'elle ne marche pas avec la dernière version de Xorg. Juste hier, je n'ai pas pu faire une mise à jour complète de mon système parce-que catalyst 10.9 ne marche pas avec xorg-xserver 1.9. C'est la 6e fois que ça m'arrive de ne pas pouvoir mettre à jour Xorg à cause de catalyst. La configuration n'est pas beaucoup mieux. Bien que X n'a plus besoin de xorg.conf pour fonctionner, j'aime bien configurer les choses à ma façon. Mais avec ma carte ATI, je ne suis même pas capable de me générer un xorg.conf bare bones. La commande X -configure plante à chaque fois (tandis qu'avec Nivida ça fonctionne nickel). je suis obligé d'utiliser l'outil propriétaire aticonfig pour générer un xorg.conf de départ, et la manière que c'est généré est plus dégeulasse qu'un site d'enfouissement des vidanges, Je n'ai même pas encore ajouté mes propres options personnalisés, et j'ai déja un fichier de config bâtard ! De plus, l'outil graphique équivalent (amdcccle) plante les 3/4 du temps (tandis que je n'ai jamais vu celui de nvidia planter encore une fois) J'ai du passer une fin de semaine au complet à tester différents setups commun pour produire 4 fichiers xorg.conf différents que j'utilise quand je branche un moniteur externe (dépendant du type de moniteur), et même à ça je dois prier que ça fonctionne du premier coup quand je branche le moniteur. Ah, et j'ai pas parlé des bugs graphiques. La version 10.7 de catalyst génère des gros blocs gris dans les applications GTK comme firefox de manière alléatoire, bloquant parfois la page au complet. Plusieurs personnes ont reporté le bug, et la seule réponse d'ATI est que le problème est connu. nous vous conseillons de désactiver option xyz dans votre configuration en attendant de trouver une solution plus permanente. Sauf que quand cette option est désactivé, le taux de rafraîchissement est 3 fois plus lent. Un simple fichier avi n'est plus jouable. Ce bug n'est toujours pas corrigé dans la version 10.9, et en tant que programmeur, je trouve ça innaceptable de laisser un bug aussi majeur traîner aussi longtemps, avec comme seul solution de venir handicapper la carte graphique. Certes, si j'utilisais ubuntu à place sur mon laptop ( la où la version de Xorg et de catalyst ne change pas à tout bout de champ ) la situation serait peut-être différente. Il se peut juste que la version de la carte graphique que j'ai sois

lol! Fonejacker springs to mind with a guy sitting in a box asking for monies Sir...I wouldn't touch this with a barge pole! For the sake of a few extra quid, you'd be better off sticking with a known brand/seller. Western Union do not give back money for buyer/seller mistakes like Paypal do - once the money's transferred that's it, no bank to back you up (Fraud Prevention Team) 60% off is usually the closing down clearance type sale, but I don't know any retailer that would hike the prices back up after a week if they're selling their stock off... the mind boggles on this one... If you want a cheap monitor, you can get a 21.6 TV from Tesco now for £99, or maybe it was £119, and it can double as a monitor with the VGA ports :) Failing that you could try Maplin, SVP or eBay for some bargains...or even Freecycle/Freegle if you're not fussed about picking up second-hand stuff from strangers houses for free ;) Just a few suggestions :) On Mon, Oct 4, 2010 at 1:05 PM, javadayaz javada...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, Many of you may know of my efforts to get a revo installed with ubuntu as a media centre for my living roomwhat do you make of this offer here? -- Forwarded message -- From: ProvideSupport transcr...@providesupport.com Date: Mon, Oct 4, 2010 at 12:47 PM Subject: Transcript of 4 Oct 2010 7:25:17.

I hope this will solve the problem. It's unlikely to be 'exhausted'. The main problem is likely to be dust, etc. in the heatsink or the fan. Taking the heatsink off the chip (perhaps in order to clean it) can leave air bubbles in the thermal compound - air in this situation acts as a brilliant heat insulator, which is less than ideal... Removing and re-applying the thermal compound ensures that the conductivity between chip and heatsink is a good way to help exclude the air bubbles and any other contaminants that could interfere in the cooling.

Yep that's definitely an improvement although keep an eye on it as it might go up when it's under load. If it still doesn't get any better you'd probably be better off getting a new heatsink and fan and some good compound.

[ubuntu-uk] Symlinking to USB hard drives
Hi all, I have a couple of matched USB hard drives that I use as part of my backup strategy. At the moment they both have the same label, so they end up mounted at /media/backup. But this means I can't easily tell which drive is which, and when I plug the second in, it gets mounted at /media/backup_. I'd like to re-label the drives to backup1 and backup2, but then have a symlink automatically created at /media/backup to whichever drive was first plugged in. I think I need to use a udev rule, but other than that I'm not sure. Does anyone have any ideas?

Sorry for the delay, I had to do some research on Grub1. :-) What version of grub are you running? That's the program that is displaying the boot menu. You can look in Synaptic and search for 'grub', or type 'dpkg --list grub' in a terminal - if this is installed the last line shown will start 'ii'. If the 'grub' package is installed, that's Grub1. Otherwise you're using Grub2 (which probably has a version number of 1.97 or 1.98). For Grub1, you need to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst (that's LST in lower case), and 'uncomment' the 'hiddenmenu' option. IIRC, it will currently have 2 # marks at the front of the line, change it to just 1. For Grub2 you need to edit /etc/default/grub, and you need to look for the GRUB_TIMEOUT and GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT values. GRUB_TIMEOUT should be set to 0 (zero). GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT should be set to a value between zero and about 2. Whichever file you are editing, you will need to have root permission to edit it (try Alt-F2, then type 'gksu gedit filename' without the quotes and replacing the filename for the relevant version of Grub).

Re: Last call (was Natty and RT Kernel)
I suppose I would be most interested in the -rt kernel. I can help with testing, but I am willing to learn more. At least one new release each year, I think. LTS seems too far apart. It would be great if people from different audio distros could collaborate on this particular problem, but maybe the 1/2 year dev cycle is not good for everyone? I know that the guys at puredyne were building their own rt-kernel, but decided to use the one from Ubuntu's repo for their 9.10 release. Perhaps if the development cycle was once a year instead of twice a year, it would be easier to get more people involved? Just an idea.

I have know idea what particular issues I'd be interested in, and which ones I can best help on, because I don't know anything about the process. Since you asked about bugs in the -realtime kernel, I would like to say that my desktop's ATI card has never worked with the -realtime kernel. It's a somewhat older card (Radeon 5000 series) that is not supported by the open drivers, and so I need to use fglrx. I'll take care only of the bugs reported by active people(*) . Do you want one of these? :) To clarify, are you asking if I want to report a bug? Or be an active member? I would like to be both. If you are asking if I want to report a bug, do you mean via Launchpad? See, this what I mean. I'm starting from an extreme point of ignorance here. Don't assume any prior knowledge. This is often a problem on lists like this. People will come in with earnest desires to help, and when they ask how they can start, they can get obtuse answers like 'start reporting bugs'. Reporting bugs where? And how? What's the most effective way to report bugs? Have you ever seen the posts on a Launchpad bug? They're confusing! What are those people doing? (yes, I am being a little goofy here) This is not meant to offend anyone, I just think that a lot of the more experienced users on the list, especially the ones who are asking for more support, don't genuinely know how they come across to beginners. I've been on this list for a while, and I have seen several people stop participating because they get what seems like rude behavior from people who are asking for their help (I do not mean that you are being rude, Alessio, because you are not. It's an overall observation.) Sometimes the rudeness is not intentional, it's just people giving an answer that they feel is adequate, when it is not. This a tough environment for beginners, and that's a problem when we are trying to recruit people. The best thing we can do to get more people on board is to figure out how to get them the information they need -- and be VERY detailed and nice about it.

Re: Sporadic UI halts on Meerkat Netbook - how to debug

However, I am having some slowdown issues. Once in a while (...or many times during an hour) everything besides the mouse cursor in the user interface halts. The text cursor stops blinking (no matter what application). I suspect this might have something to do with disk IO as the netbook has very slow disk and I have encrypted home folder. Each halts last 5-10 seconds and since they happen often they hit hard the overall user experience. Basic tasks like editing the text on the computer become pain. These are the typical symptoms of an I/O bug nobody has been able to identify and which has generated many comments. See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.22/+bug/131094 but don't expect to find help there, as we don't even know whether there are several bugs mixed or a single root cause... :-( I have some background tasks running (Skype, Quassel), but it should be nothing killing the performance. Windows XP can handle things just fine. The only thing that is likely to create a high I/O load regularly is swapping. I'd suggest you avoid running too many programs at the same time. You can use the command 'free -m' to see how many free RAM you have. Now, my question is, how to debug these halt or stop issues. I suspect if I could get history graph of CPU and IO per application level it would help greatly. Also, the problem might be in kernel services (disk io, OpenGL, sound?) . If your problem is actually the swapping + I/O bug issue, I don't think you can do much to help, except if you have enough skills to convince kernel developers that they can do something about it. If you're ready to answer a long series of technical questions, then you can send a mail to the kernel development list (lkml.org). But before that, it would be useful to check that system logs don't show something interesting each time you suffer from the bug (use System-Administration-Log viewer and have a look at these files). Also running the command 'top' and checking what applications are using RAM may simply reveal that one of them is leaking memory (type '' to sort processes by order of physical RAM usage).

Re: Ubuntu 11.04 Translations Plans
Hi all, Some days ago I was asking you for feedback on the translations roadmap for the 11.04 cycle [1], and at this point I must send you a big thanks: you've all provided great ideas and comments, which I'll try to address by responding to them directly in this thread. I'm working on the plan right now, and on the next few days I'll be drafting the blueprints for what will become the sessions at UDS were we'll discuss the roadmap's objectives. We will obviously won't be able to work on every one of the ideas you've provided, so I'll be picking up the ones I believe to be most important for the translations community. If I did not pick up one of your suggestions, don't be discouraged: if you want to, feel free to still lead the effort of implementing it. Even if it's not on the roadmap, I'll help you in what I can.

One of the key areas I'd like to work on in this cycle, for instance, is outreach: we want to bang the drum and get people excited and involved in translations. What are your thoughts and ideas? What do you think we should focus on? Maybe, as a short-term goal, I was thinking about reaching out translator teams, and ask them if they have story to share about how, a translated version of Ubuntu, has helped people/companies/schools in a particular way, something that a non-translated version couldn't have achieved, and share their story on the Fridge, pointing out how important is the translators work. I really like this idea, I think it would be good to start a coordinated effort to publish stories for each translation team. I'm planning to have a UDS session on this. We should probably try to have more translators on the hall-of-fame, We haven't updated the Hall Of Fame for a while, so the status of the HoF is right now on hold, unless someone finds the time to step up and help maintaining it. That's the reason why we haven't been adding any rockstar contributors (be it in translation or in any area). and start publishing more translators interview. We should be publishing the interviews monthly, but there seems to have been some delay in the last one. It's been hectic lately with the preparation of several OpenWeek, AppDeveloperWeek and such events, but I'll try to see if we can unblock it and start publishing the next batch of interviews. What follows is probably a very very long term thing, maybe not implementable too... but anyway. I would really like to see a community-driven web portal where translator groups (but not only them) can get together, a sort-of Language Portal like Microsoft has, but better and open-source: http://www.microsoft.com/Language/en-US/Default.aspx Maybe somebody will turn up their nose because it's Microsoft, but I think that portal is very well done, and a precious resource for translators. I've been using that portal for a while to look into how certain words are translated into my language from a very big software company like Microsoft. I've done this also to try to keep some kind of cross-operating-system coherence when translating technical terms (so maybe users will not feel lost). Think about this portal as a glossary on steroids, but not only a mere glossary portal: a new professional look for Ubuntu and FLOSS translators, and the work they do. A forum where translators can share opinions, and talk about their language, where developers can get information on how to i18n-ize their application, what are the tools the FLOSS world has for i18n; and where developers can find very good and motivated translators to help their apps reach the most number of people. What do you think? That's something I've been thinking for a while. I too had seen the Microsoft languages portal a while ago (it looked a bit different than now, there were also case stories and such), so I'm glad someone else brings up the subject as well. Despite all attempts to structure the contents on the Translations namespace and to simplify the main page so that people can easily find the info they need (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Translations/), the wiki has grown too big for being able to store all the content related to translations and present it to new users in a way that is both easy to use and attractive. I've been discussing this with Jono, and also looking at the awesome work my team mate Ahmed has been doing on a Cloud Portal, and I think it is the time for a Translations Portal.

From my experience one needs to show to the other people that it's fun and rewarding thing to do. Also a team should get a chatroom where people interested in translations or translators can share info, discuss, coordinate, etc. In our case we used jabber chat room from http://partychapp.appspot.com/ as many new contributors were not comfortable/had difficulities with irc but almost all had google /jabber accounts. That's a good tip. Different teams use different workflows, so this might work better on some teams that others. I'll take a note to add it to the best practices and advice for new teams. About string reorganization: I don't think singificantly more people will translate if they see easy strings first. They might translate first few, but they are going to stop at difficult ones. In my opinion easy strings like Add are of medium importance as most people already know what they mean or can easily look it up (i guess it depends on the country one comes from). What is the most important are long, difficult strings as one cannot look them up in a dictionary / online. I'm not planning to focus on any string reorganization effort. If this were to happen, I believe it should be done by prioritizing the most visible strings first. If anyone would want to work on this, a suggestion would be (roughly) a coordinated effort to: * Collect the data of the most visible strings in the desktop * Work with gettext upstream to implement a per-string prioritization * Implement per-string priorities in Launchpad While useful, this seems to me like a significant amount of work. In addition to that, there should be an easy way to update the priorities at least on a per-release basis. I think what we have now, in terms of per-template priorities (i.e. most important templates are shown first on the list) is a good compromise with the functionality we've got. Of course it would even be better to organize the templates per package sets (e.g. GNOME, KDE, etc.), but as mentioned on the previous e-mail, the Launchpad Translations developers focus right now is not on new features, but rather upstream integration. And I won't get tired of repeating it :) Launchpad is Free Software, so if any one at one point would and enjoy the experience of working in such a big and fast-paced project and contribute to it by scratching their own itch and implementing new features that can be useful to all translators, the Launchpad devs will be more than happy to mentor them. Here are some pointers to get started: https://dev.launchpad.net/ I agree the most important think translations should focus is easy upstream coordination. both ways. For example, a translation was imported from compiz into launchpad, by a person who i cannot contact. There were some bugs in translations. We fixed them and wanted to send the .po file upstream. Unfortunately slovenian team does not exist for compiz and they only have pootble for translation (cannot import .po). After half an hour hunting for people on irc i was redirected to ubuntu package maintainters, but i don't think they can contribute directly to upstream (will ask them, need to check). We've discussed this on IRC already, but I'll include the answer for the benefit of other translators. No, maintainers cannot generally contribute to upstream translations. Apart from the fact that they could not handle requests from all translation teams, they might not even have commit rights to the upstream projects or not be versed in how translations work. And most importantly, in general the work of translation teams should not be bypassed. They are ultimately responsible for QA'ing translations, and a maintainer that does not speak a particular language might not be the best person to submit a translation, unless he's intimately familiar and already involved with the translation workflow of the particular project. There are lots of small projects (in terms of translations) like compiz. Of course it would be best if the translations were automatically signed. But even if some simplificaion of the process would be really great. I think it would be really great if; a) there would be a list of all packages with links with upstream and even better if we could assign some people who have good contact with smaller upstream projects (meaning excluding Gnome, kde, debian and translaton project, possibly package maintainers), so that we could send them the .po files and they would know who they should send it to and how should they commit it. This would save people a massive amount of time as we don't need to hunt down the people thorugh which we can commit the packages. Also the people responsible wouldn't have too much work, as i

However, I'd first recommend to write a complete specification about the feature and its implementation, as I believe it to be essential for any development work planning. Thanks! Regards, David.

Re: [Ubuntu-BR] Ubuntu 10.04 LTS ou Ubuntu 10.10
Com certeza LTS... Até pq ainda nao foi lançada a versão estável do 10.10... só tem beta! E geralmente depois de lançado o Ubuntu precisa de cerca de 1 ou 2 meses para amadurecer legal. De inicial sempre aparecem alguns bugs (o que eu acho normal de acontecer nestes casos), e são logos corrigidos nos meses seguintes. Com o 10.04 vc já vai evitar isso, pois ele está num nível de amadurecimento excelente. []'s e boa sorte lá!

Re: [Ubuntu-BR] Usando túnel SSH para conexões se guras e anônimas.
Sim, pelo IP.. mas certifique-se de: a porta estar aberta no roteador,modem e pela própria compania q faz o relay do seu ip (ex: a Oi e a NetV bloqueiam a porta 80 e a 25 se não me engano) e por segurança, não deixe um usuário com permissão de root logar no ssh. Explicações aqui: www.google.com.br :) Allan, na verdade, como o Nilsonm falou, não precisa instalar programa nenhum basta usar no terminal o comando -D [porta] e no programa usar o proxy socks v5. e para não ficar o terminal aberto pode-se usar o comando nohup e o () e-comercial para o processo ir para o init e você poder fechar o terminal :) Ex: $ nohup ssh -qTfnNC -D 5900 usua...@host * * * * os outros parâmetros no comando são para eficácia, eficiência e segurança aprimorada da conexão, explicações: -q :- be very quite, we are acting only as a tunnel. -T :- Do not allocate a pseudo tty, we are only acting a tunnel. -f :- move the ssh process to background, as we don’t want to interact with this ssh session directly. -N :- Do not execute remote command. -n :- redirect standard input to /dev/null. -C :- compressão habilitada, para conexões lentas.

Re: [Ubuntu-BR] Abrir arquivos localizados em partiç ões e sistemas diferentes?
Você tem varias formas de fazer isso vou citar uma: Usando uma partição comum para arquivos: por exemplo: part1 windows - ntfs part2 linux - ext4 part3 arquivos ext4 ou ntfs se a partição de arquivos estivar em ntfs o linux ja lê naturalmente (ou so instalar o ntfs-3g) se a partição estiver em ext4 você pdoe instalar um leitor de partições linux no windows ele ira reconhecer como se fosse uma partição nativa Na minha opinião é muito chato ter dois sistemas em dual boot instala um so e coloca maquina virtual, eu prefira instalar o ubuntu e colocar o virtualbox e nele o win se o seu probs for jogo o virtualbox integra tão bem com o kernel que da pra rodar jogo na maquina virtual do win como se fosse uma maquina fisica -- Mais sobre o Ubuntu em português: http://www.ubuntu-br.org/comece Lista de discussão Ubuntu Brasil Histórico, descadastramento e outras opções: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-br
