The change already happened in tasksel's git. I have to say that I'm
not entirely happy of the very short discussion leading to it.

I particularly object to the change that happened to the language name
in the tasks descriptions, along with 248 other string changes.

Even though I may sometimes appear as less directly involved in D-I
and D-I related software l10n, I think I would have had the
opportunity to discuss these changes before they are committed...and
offered to translators.

I don't really like playing rude games but I'm very much tempted to
revert the change that turned the *English* name of "se" into "North
Sami" in the tasks descriptions.

I am aware of thus, but suspect it is incorrect in that list and
should be fixed in ISO-639-2 too.

I've pointed the Divvun project members to this discussion, and hope
for their feedback here.  They are native speakers, and involved in
the Divvun project which is a government funded project to provide
langauge tools for the Sámi langauges.

Happy hacking,

Sorry, I thought it was a trivial change. I'll revert it as soon as I 
get home to my ssh key (or you can revert if you want).

That was the splitting of {kde,gnome}-desktop, I believe, which Joey did.

Sure.

It's not rude; please revert the change if you feel it is incorrect. I'm 
not an i18n expert. Note that there are two commits as I wanted git to 
catch the renaming correctly.

Bug#485586: debian-installer: Default to graphical install

2008-06-10 Thread Didier Raboud
Package: debian-installer
Severity: wishlist

Hi, 

In my humble opinion, with the stability (and the beauty) of the graphical 
installer, the
graphical menu (under i386 and amd64) should default to the graphical
installer.

Obviously, the change has to be done with care and only on arches where
applicable, but would be a good step forward (with the classical text
installer staying as fallback).

Regards, 

Didier

And still:
  * it does not follow the HIG (which is, after theming and icons,
the most important thing when it comes to look and feel);
  * there is no network-manager integration;
  * there is no avahi integration;
  * there is no support for notifications;
and I probably forget some.

There are definitely some nice improvements in iceweasel 3.0 when it
comes to GNOME integration (especially the proxy settings, the beginning
of GTK+ icon theme support and native widgets), but it still looks like
a second-class browser to me in this context.

We are considering this but there are still a few blocking issues before 
we can do that:
- issues with keyboard support in some languages
- missing support to start a shell from other components, which especially
  affects the rescue mode for the graphical installer
- some dialogs, especially in the partitioner, still look too messy
  because of missing column alignment

The last two issues are actively being worked on and may be solved in time 
for Lenny. The first is much more problematic and will likely require 
(upstream) help.

Another issue is that it requires much more memory, but that IMO is not a 
blocker. It does require careful documentation though.

Reason for this is that the Debian kernel provides two modules that
support your IDE controller:
$ grep 1039.*5513 /lib/modules/2.6.24-1-amd64/modules.pcimap
pata_sis 0x1039 0x5513 0x 0x 0x 
0x 0x0
sis5513  0x1039 0x5513 0x 0x 0x 
0x 0x0

Which gets loaded is somewhat random and apparently the installer used
the second (setting the system up to use /dev/hda), while after the
reboot the first was used (changing the device name to /dev/sda).

This is a known issue listed in the errata.

Reassigning your report to the kernel team because AFAIK we should not
be listing two modules for the same controller.

Cheers,
FJP

The point is that ISO 639-2 does not standardize langguages names in
the languages themselves, but languages names in English (and French,
FWIW). And, I really think that things should go the Right Way, ie
change nameswhen they are changed in the standard.

Otherwise, I deeply fear request from here and there to change
language names for this or that reason (sometimes political ones).

Well, "North Sámi" is probably not the language's name in the language
itself. According to Wikipedia it's "Davvisápmi".

Note that having accents in English names causes its own problems. It's 
for example the reason the we currently do not list two (French?) islands 
in the D-I country list.

Hi Ryan,

Thanks for your help.  I'm also interested in this feature (I updated the
patch which was being currently used, 02-64bit-autodetection.dpatch, but it
seems that it has no effect when using the menu).  I have two comments:

  - Would you please open a bug report (see bugs.debian.org) against syslinux
package for this?  debian-devel is not the most indicate place.

  - Have you based your code on the currently existing check in
02-64bit-autodetection.dpatch?  It is best to reuse known-working code
for this.  If you want a C-friendly version, you can use cpuid.c from
the win32-loader package (it derives from GCC and has been widely
tested).

Please unfreeze libdirectfb 1.0.1-9

Hi,

Could you please unfreeze libdirectfb 1.0.1-9 ?

It contains cross build support for emdebian, a patch accepted upstream (1)
and unblock splashy 0.3.10 to enter Lenny.

(1) when libdirectfb detects zero length reads, it attempts to reopen the 
console
 (possibly from a newly mounted root tree).

Ok, it's in 0.97-40.  Some notes:

 1- It is disabled for installs that have root filesystem in LVM or RAID,
because of bug #484297.

 2- It does only affect menu.lst generation, NOT menu.lst update.  So unless
the admin explicitly takes action, it will only be enabled in new installs.

 3- Admin can disable it simply by setting the "kopt" variable to its

Please test this actively if you can (on an existing install, simply by
removing menu.lst and regenerating it).

Bug#435769: debian-installer: no checking for sufficient disk space

Hi, 

I'm reacting on this bug because I thought that the latest installer had many 
other issues because of this bug:

I tried to install Lenny Beta2 amd64 KDE within KVM, providing an disk image 
of 2G. The installer failed to complete the install of the packages because 
of lacking space (but did not mention anything to me).

I see two problems here:

* Not checking that enough disk space is available
* Not mentioning the user that he lacks space.

The second can rather easily be correcting by mentioning the fact after the 
error triggers (just check df). With that in hands, the user can know that 
the partitioning scheme he has chosen (or the virtual image he provided) is 
not good.

For the moment, the message is just "there is an error", which is not 
sufficient to me.

Regards, 

Didier

My mistake.  I could have sworn the original d-d-a announcement had a

Thanks.  My version was pretty close to win32-loader's cpuid.c, but
that one had a few extra precautions, so I'll grab from there.  A new
version is attached (also at
http://www.finnie.org/software/debian/devel/syslinux-menu-default64.patch).

And to avoid a bit of confusion, the functionality isn't /exactly/ the
same as the old autodetection patch.  The original
02-64bit-autodetection.dpatch logic was "if the user presses Enter,
boot this section if it's 64-bit, otherwise boot this section".  The
logic for the new menu patch is "if it's 64-bit, highlight this menu
entry for the user, otherwise highlight this menu entry", which is
more in line with the concept of the menu (and easier to implement).

I think that the KDE CD images should install and configure sudo as the

Additionnally, it should configure KDE to use it correctly.

Bug#485656: menu.c32/vesamenu.c32: Add MENU DEFAULT64 support

2008-06-10 Thread Ryan Finnie
Package: syslinux
Version: 2:3.63+dfsg-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

Current Debian syslinux packages have the patch to add DEFAULT64 support 
to the core syslinux/isolinux/etc bootloader.  However, debian-installer 
recently switched[0] to the vesamenu.c32 system, which is a chained 
bootloader on top of syslinux, and cannot take advantage of DEFAULT64.

Attached is a patch that adds "MENU DEFAULT64" support to the 
menu.c32/vesamenu.c32 chain loader.  The classic behavior is of this 
loader is to highlight a menu entry that contains the "MENU DEFAULT" 
keyword.  This patch extends that functionality to highlight a menu 
entry that has the "MENU DEFAULT64" keyword if the CPU is x86_64 (but 
will still fall back to the "MENU DEFAULT" entry if the CPU is not 
x86_64).

An example screenshot of a menu taking advantage of this is here[1].  
"Boot Finnix (AMD64)" was highlighted because it was booted on a Core 2 
Duo, but on a 32-bit CPU, "Boot Finnix (x86)" would be highlighted by 
default.

This is what the default kernel in the Kurobox Pro uses, but the
mainline kernel from kernel.org (and hence the Debian kernel) will use
something different.  The script has to work with the Debian kernel,
not with the original kernel (which we will replace).

The string is: Buffalo/Revogear Kurobox Pro

You have to check what address the Kurobox actually uses.  When you
connect the serial console and load the default kernel, you'll see the
values.

So you flash the kernel but not the ramdisk.  You'll also have to
figure out how the ramdisk should be written to flash (in particular,
in which format).  See the previous mail I sent you about this.

I realized this battle was over when discussion on debian-user revieled
that google maps behaved differently in firefox than iceweasel, because it
used a firefox-UA specific test to enable a feature (closing the sidebar
to make the map take up the full screen).

If the top website out there gets it "wrong", the battle is effectively 
over; "right" or "wrong" no longer really matters (victors write history
etc).

I'm afraid that documenting it in README.Debian won't help desktop users
who just find that this strange "iceweasel" browser we install by
default doesn't work on sites that firefox works on.

I've created PDF charts [1] for old and new version just to have a quick way
for comparing the two: new version does contain more glyphs indeed.

The obvious suggestion would be to introduce a mechanism fo stripping unneeded 
glyps
out of the udeb as we already do for ttf-dejavu [2] and ttf-freefont [3] 
packages.

3 megabytes difference is quite alot, and I'd like to dig a bit more to 
understand
if there's anything else which causes this increase: will probablyhave the 
chance
to work on this tomorrow evening.

BTW, I noticed the ttf file has been renamed from TibetanMachineUniAlpha.ttf to
TibMachUni-1.901b.ttf ; any particular reason for such change?

Although I'm the "To" addressee, I'm obviously not the correct person to 
answer the questions :-)

One comment: the name change means that the font selection script in 
rootskel-gtk will need to be adjusted as well!
Maybe we should implement a more generic mechanism where font udebs 
include a file in a certain location in which they "declare" which 
languages (by language code) they cover and which font size change is 
desired. Only for languages where a font switch is needed of course.

Advantage would be that a font rename or other changes only has 
consequences in a single package: the relevant udeb.

Davide: would you be willing to work something out for that?
For transition we could probably first test if there is such a file and if 
not, fall back to current hard-coded values.

Cheers,
FJP

I've just requested the daily CD images to be switched back to sid_d-i.

There will also be a new weekly build probably sometime tomorrow, but I've 
disabled the links to weekly images on the project page for now to give 
Beta2 more exposure.

Note that I did not create the extended "human readable changelog" that 
was created for Beta1. If someone else wants to work on that, please do.

Note that I do have a (somewhat rough) script that can show changes in D-I

easier. It's available on request.

P.S. Just in casethat was not clear: the fact that I did the final bits of 
the release was on request from Otavio because he was unavailable to do

Don't you think that this should be added to the errata anyway? With link

Could this cause problems while d-cd does not yet use the new syslinux?

Bug#485508: SV: Bug#485508: Bug report

2008-06-10 Thread Patrick Fabrizius
Perhaps I should have called it 'Application for best Subject Line', since a
subject stating what the message is about was obviously not enough.

I wish that I, as a debian newbie, could say 'thanks for your fast reply',
however I am overwhelmed by the warmth that only a truly helpful and
cheerful Linux Guru as yourself can provide.

Additionally, I will of course consider to offer my help in the future to
report bugs that I happend to run into. Futhermore, I will of course tell
all my friends to do the same, because of the joy of writing replies such as
this. 

Please do continue your contribution to world growth by replying to this
message with comments regarding relevant issues such as my english grammar.

With kind regards,
Patrick

For that specific, informative title, that told us this bug report is
a bug report, tell him what he won!

Well Jim, he's won something of questionable substance... a bladeless
knife without a handle! You won't want for a place to put it... it can
fit in any space because it takes up no space! (unlike this
message...I'm realizing you must have gotten a lot of this... so, let
this be just one more request to put greater than zero information in
the subject line... thanks! Hi! Buy!)
