| 15:04 rgsteele||work | Mrfai: Just wanted to let you know, setting up Postgres in a custom script worked like a charm. |
| 15:04 rgsteele||work | By that time, the locales package had been installed and the default set to my preferred localization. |
| 15:43 Mrfai | OK, so it seems that the locales pacakge should be installed very early, if other packages need localization |
| 15:47 teratoma | stockholm: sets a value early so fai in debian etch and an old adaptec card will install. maybe this problem goes away in lenny. |
| 16:46 rgsteele||work | Mrfai: Yeah. |
| 16:47 rgsteele||work | Mrfai: A hook would be ideal, but initial attempts didn't work out so well, and since I only needed it for that one package, doing it in a script was more prudent. |
| 16:47 rgsteele||work | But I definitely see the value in having localizations set early on. |
| 16:53 Mrfai | ok maybe it fine just to document this. |
| 17:02 rgsteele||work | Mrfai: Sure. |

| 17:28 stockholm | teratoma: we had problems with arcc* drivers too, since they advertise the raids as removable devices... |
| 17:28 stockholm | teratoma: we worked around that differently, wiht udev |
| 17:30 teratoma | stockholm: is this in etch? did you add more modules in DEFAULT ? what do you mean you worked around it with udev? i hope to one day more to 2.6.26+ and i will hope my problems will go away |
| 17:30 stockholm | yes, this is in etch. |
| 17:31 stockholm | we had to both change the disk-info script in fai (which is merged upstream now) and change udev to report the thing as a disk, not a cd (or what it was reported to before) |
| 17:33 teratoma | so you mean in fai 3.2.14 (lenny) . not in 3.2.8 etch |
| 17:34 teratoma | i wish i could probe the individual disks attached to the raid card with smartmontools, i guess i can't. not a fai problem though |
| 17:35 stockholm | no |
| 17:35 stockholm | and a good raid does that anyway, on its own |
| 17:35 stockholm | healthmonitoring and stuff |
| 17:35 stockholm | adaptec should do it i think |
| 17:40 teratoma | how would i be notified if a disk attached to the adaptec card failed ? |
| 17:46 teratoma | i guess a little red light goes on |
| 17:46 teratoma | not very helpful for a machine far away |

| 18:49 adrian15 | Hello. I am preparing an university thesis. It's about an automatic installation. My question is if there is a place for another FAI GUI? I mean... Does anyone of you find that GoSA have to many requisites to make it work? Another question... Do you have a FAI environment that does not work with LDAP ? |
| Action: h01ger uses fai in ldap and outside ldap environments |
| 19:03 teratoma | what does a gui + fai do ? |
| 19:12 adrian15 | h01ger: Thank you. |
| 19:12 adrian15 | teratoma: It lets you use fai without having to deal a lot with fai files ? |
| 19:13 h01ger | teratoma, you replace typing cd, vi and $vcs with moving the mouse :) |
| 19:19 adrian15 | h01ger: If you had to choose a GUI for your non-ldap environments (I mean the ones that you do not use gosa)... what features would you request? |
| 19:19 h01ger | should work fine if changes are made without it |
| 19:20 h01ger | access to logfiles |
| 19:20 h01ger | schedule softupdates |
| 19:20 h01ger | use $vcs |

| 19:57 adrian15 | ok, I will save this conversation |
| 19:59 adrian15 | h01ger: I do not remember having read $vcs in the fai manual. What's the use of this variable? |
| 19:59 h01ger | version control system |
| 19:59 h01ger | be it git,svn,cvs,rcs,sccs,bzr |
| 19:59 adrian15 | ahm |
| 20:00 h01ger | i mostly dont mean svn or git |
| 20:00 h01ger | s/dont// |
| 20:00 adrian15 | ok |
| 20:00 adrian15 | I suppose that integrating vcs support in an application is a difficult task but I'll take a look at it |
| 20:00 h01ger | packages.debian.org/mr might help :) |
| 20:00 adrian15 | It might be just running svn (or whatever command) with some options and that's all |
| 20:01 adrian15 | mr |
| Action: adrian15 checking mr on the web |
| 20:03 adrian15 | h01ger: So mr helps a normal user to deal with different gits, cvs, svn with a single utility... Is it that? |
| 20:03 adrian15 | h01ger: Repository on its description means git,cvs,svn... it does not mean a Debian Package Repository... Isn't? |
| 20:05 h01ger | yes & yes |
| 20:06 adrian15 | ok |
| 20:06 adrian15 | h01ger: Thank you for everything. |
