I'm starting to see black 20:15:20 <wilcal> MCC windows in some of my Vbox testing. 20:15:31 <wilcal> it could be a really serious problem 20:15:45 <MrsB> there are still bugs yes, it's not final yet 20:15:51 <hviaene> That's the issue I hit 20:15:53 <tmb> ok, I'll start preparing / signing the isos / torrents and push them online 20:16:43 <MrsB> what about the team? could we have done anything differently? 20:17:07 <ennael> I will start checking with pterjan about issues relative to installer 20:17:17 <ennael> he fixed already the one about release notes 20:17:29 <MrsB> there are a number of installer issues 20:17:41 <ennael> indeed and tv seems to be busy 20:17:44 <MrsB> i'll try and dig them all out and start a tracker if you like 20:18:01 <ennael> well tracker is not that needed only some work on it 20:18:09 <MrsB> ok 20:18:42 <MrsB> is the team here? nopbody anything to say? 20:19:04 <wilcal> The pad went down a couple times 20:19:04 <azziam> I did one hardware install each of classic 32 and 64 last night and updated them, no problems I saw yet. 20:19:11 <ennael> on my side I will try to write kind of reference packages list to check on each build 20:19:15 <lewyssmith> For us EFI lot, there is not much to say! 20:19:34 <wilcal> I've just started to understand the EFI thingy 20:19:54 <wilcal> can you do an EFI install in Vbox? 20:19:59 <MrsB> #info alot are waiting for efi integration 20:20:22 <lewyssmith> Talking of the PAD, it is not working under Opera. A certificate issue perhaps? 20:20:24 <tmb> yes, current vbox has a working efi support 20:20:57 <MrsB> #info anne will write a thing to check for missing packages 20:21:16 <wilcal> so how do you indicate an efi install in Vbox 20:21:30 <MrsB> Maybe a java thing lewis, it seems ok in firefox 20:21:33 <wilcal> something i'm missing in the installer 20:22:05 <lewyssmith> MrsB: Yes, I know it works in FF; but it refuses to connect with Opera. 20:22:17 <MrsB> don't use opera? 20:22:31 <lewyssmith> My main application... 20:22:48 <lewyssmith> I use FF where necessary, though. 20:22:57 <MrsB> we can't do anything about that though so it's a sensible workaround 20:23:22 <tmb> wilcal, vm settings -> System -> Activate EFI 20:24:12 <MrsB> #info to activate EFI in vbox - vm settings -> System -> Activate EFI 20:24:26 <marja> MrsB: thx for info'ing that :-) 20:24:34 <MrsB> anybody can info 20:24:57 <marja> yeah, but I wasn't smart enough to do it ;-) 20:25:03 <MrsB> lol 20:25:16 <MrsB> Ok nobody has alot to say tonight so let's move on 20:25:28 <MrsB> #topic Testing updates 20:25:38 <wilcal> Ahhh I see it it's a check box 20:25:44 <MrsB> http://mageia.madb.org/tools/updates 20:25:45 <lewyssmith> A big list now. 20:25:46 <wilcal> thks tmb 20:25:47 <[mbot> [ Mageia App Db - Current Update candidates ] 20:26:55 <MrsB> Yeah, it would have been longer though. Herman, and Olivier this week, have kept on top of it 20:27:09 <RemyServices> if I have any energy tonight I'll hit some of these 20:27:23 <MrsB> that'd be good, well done 20:27:23 <wilcal> why is the Firefox critical update grey'd out? 20:27:31 <hviaene> Not me this week, 20:27:33 <MrsB> I think it's waiting for thunderbird 20:27:45 <tmb> nope, the firefox build failed 20:28:08 <MrsB> oh ok, tend not to look until the grey disappears 20:28:38 <MrsB> Are there any there that look scary? 20:29:11 <RemyServices> gargoyle? 20:29:17 <wilcal> I'll probably go after the mariadb thing today or tomorrow 20:29:23 <RemyServices> oh, you meant for testing, sorry 20:29:41 <MrsB> binutils stuff can be used against just about anything in /usr/bin (carefully of course) 20:29:41 <hviaene> Not scary, but the lower half of th elist seems to stick 20:30:03 <olivier_cc> how would you do that ? 20:30:12 <MrsB> yes, we prioritise the security updates 20:30:27 <RemyServices> I think I can do aircrack on 64, but don't hold me to it, don't remember if the card supports it 20:31:12 <MrsB> gargoyle has a procedure on the bug. I don't think we've come across that one before 20:33:20 <MrsB> olivier_cc: urpmf ^binutils | grep usr/bin shows you some commands to use 20:33:45 <olivier_cc> ok thanks, I'll have a look then. 20:33:49 <MrsB> use them as normal user rather than root, so it can't make changes to the files there 20:34:22 <MrsB> I thought we'd updated that before but the search isn't finding it 20:35:08 <MrsB> I'll install mga4 on my other box tmrw and test opencv (at last) 20:35:46 <MrsB> Any other scary ones? 20:36:15 <lewyssmith> drakgw baffles me. 20:36:28 <hviaene> same for me 20:37:04 <wilcal> As you saw on qa-dicuss I put some time into looking at the 20:37:05 <wilcal> CPU load while running CUPS and I saw no reason to generate 20:37:07 <wilcal> a Bug for that. 20:37:12 <MrsB> i've never used it. It's the internet sharing thing isn't it 20:37:34 <MrsB> thanks for testign that wilcal, that's mga5 though 20:38:19 <wilcal> Yes, that is M5 but I think M4.1 performs the same way 20:38:25 <MrsB> I would suggest for drakgw, if the reporter has confirmed the fix, just update it and experiment with it. If it *seems* to work ok then we can OK it 20:39:04 <MrsB> It's possible to configure vbox with two network interfaces if you fancy playing arouns with it 20:39:10 <MrsB> around 20:40:26 <MrsB> the cups load thing was a consistently high load IINM so i think it must be HW specific or intermittent 20:41:05 <MrsB> Alrighty then, let's move on 20:41:16 <MrsB> feels like hard work tonight :\ 20:41:26 <MrsB> #topic Luigis Roundup 20:41:33 <MrsB> Luigi12_work: ping 20:42:56 <lewyssmith> His laptop? 20:43:06 <MrsB> try 20:43:13 <MrsB> Luigi12_lappy: ping? 20:43:38 <lewyssmith> I dod not want to be the one to poke him! 20:43:47 <MrsB> give him a minute, he may be busy 20:44:00 <hviaene> Need something stronger? 20:44:13 <lewyssmith> If you can. 20:44:16 <ennael> lewyssmith: do you know he is a human being ? :) 20:44:24 <ennael> mmm I think so 20:44:27 <MrsB> oh yes please, vodka, gin, whiskey, all of the above! 20:44:40 <MrsB> dude :) 20:44:41 <lewyssmith> ennael: Don't understand. 20:44:47 <marja> DavidWHodgins: welcome :-) 20:44:53 <lewyssmith> DavidWHodgins: Welcome Dave. 20:44:56 <DavidWHodgins> HiYa.
