The next Debian Installer team opened meeting is scheduled for Saturday Mar 4th 17:00 UTC. This meeting will be focused on post-beta2 release goals. The D-I beta2 release is currently scheduled for the same day, so March 4th will be a pretty much important date for D-I. The Wiki page is opened for the meeting agenda. http://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/Meetings I will add timings to the agenda at the last minute, as usual, so probably on Saturday morning UTC.

Bug#253404: Bug #253404: Set root's locale to POSIX on the installed system for complex (CJK, Indic, RTL...) languages
With tha attached patch, I propose another solution, probably not perfect...but mostly aimed to trigger more discussion: Create a new language category (category 3) for languages that can use the text installer but cannot be displayed in a regulard Linux console. The current category 3 (used for languages that require the graphical installer) then becomes category 4 Then, in localechooser's post-base-installer, the script populated /target/root/.profile with LANG=C, LANGUAGE=C and a comment to explain why this is done this way. I have tested localechooser with this patch: With French, root environment in the installed system's console is localized With Japanese, it isn't, which is what was intended.. So, it worksnow we need to decide whether this is Good or if there could be a better solution. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Bug#339855: [g-i] Small patch to run a shell from the GTK frontend
As it seems that creating a GTK terminal widget usable with DFB is not
something is going to be done in short time ( and removing Execute a
shell form main-menu is not the optimal solution, as proposed in the
plan for tomorrow's d-i meeting ) i propose this patch to
d-i-utils-shell.postinst from debian-installer-utils package

when the user presses Execute a shell, the chvt 2 command is run and
the console is switched to VT2.
As the original chvt tool from console-tools depends from a couple of
libraries, i've rewritten it (source code attached below) taking source
code from the original console-tools package.
I've tested this solution and it works well; we should also provide a
way for the user to get back to the VT where the g-i runs, as actually
he's told to press run exit to get back to the instalation even if the
GTK frontend i used.
If the patch is accepted, someone should also choose where to place the
chvt.c sourcecode.

02/21 Etch install -- DHCP fails for Realtek 8139
I'm attempting a Debian install on a Compaq desktop that I purchased late last year. I've managed to coax it through almost all the process (including a 3-day-long partitioning/formatting process for my 250GB HDD), but I'm stuck at the Install the base system step because I can't get networking up. The installer appears to recognize my card (Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd RTL-8139/813/8139C+ (rev 10)) properly and load the correct modules (8139cp, 8139too, mii, eth1394, ieee1394) during the Detect Network Hardware step, but fails in the Configure the network step. If I then run ifconfig in a separate VT, I can see lo, but not eth0. Running 'ifconfig eth0 up' succeeds and I can see eth0, but running dhclient merely results in multiple messages like DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 6, followed by No DHCPOFFERS received and No working leases in persistent database. I can't really think of anything else to try at this point, but don't really want to give up after finally finding an installer that supports my SATA driver and waiting 3 days for the drive to get formatted. Does anyone have any ideas as to how I can get the install process over this bump? TIA -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: boot problem on laptop compaq presario 2115EU
Quoting marcoux.olivier ([EMAIL PROTECTED]): Hi, The installation of the 3.1r1 froze on keyboard select with my presario 2115EU laptop : Nothing respond on the keyboard even Ctrl-Alt-Suppr. Has anyone already experienced this kind of problem and found a solution ? Thank you very much, Have you tried the images available from http://www.debian.org/debian/debian-installer These are the development images of D-I. Using them to install the stable version of Debian is IIRC possible if you boot with linux26 mirror/suite=stable...but recent reports have shown us that this is not guaranteed to work. Another option is trying to boot the installer with: linux debian-installer/probe/usb=false This could solve the hang you described as it can be due to USB probing for a USB keyboard. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

May I know why India is listed above Bangladesh for Bengali language? Political conspiracy or.alphabetical order? :-) Alphabetical order. :-D Sorting the country names in the short lists is done while building localechooser (actually, this is what makes building localechooser so long). It is done by the following code: LOCPATH=`pwd` LC_ALL=debian/locales/$lastlocale.UTF-8 sort -k 2.1 $outfile $outfile.tmp mv $outfile.tmp $outfile In short, country names are sorted according to the given language's locale. So, what actually sorts India before Bengladesh is the bn_BD locale collation rules: From /usr/share/i18n/locales/bn_BD title Bengali/Bangla language locale for Bangladesh source Ankur Group, http://www.ankurbangla.org, http://www.bengalinux.org; addressDhaka, Bangladesh contactTaneem Ahmed, Jamil Ahmed .../...

Re: Country names for Bengali
Political conspiracy or.alphabetical order? :-) Alphabetical order. :-D Ah Good luck for fixing this...if this needs fixing. Can you please point me - which line made the problem? Dunno. Actually, either the alphabetical order is correct according to Bengali collation rules and you and other Bengali speakers are the only ones who can tellor it is wrong and the collation order should be fixed. In short, what is the normal alphabetical order between Bengladesh and India when written in Bengali? If the locale needs fixing, LC_COLLATE is what should be fixed. This is one of the most complicated sections, imho, in locale files. The help of a locales specialist would be needed if a fix is needed. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Yes, it *does* matter. :) There are only two country names after all ... As I saw in other languages [ie. English, French, German etc] the country names are sorted alphabetically - except Bengali.

Re: [Debian-in-workers] Country names for Bengali
Christian already informed that the bn_BD locale has an issue, I will try to dig out. You can ask for help on debian-i18n, at least to be pointed at correct documentation about collation rules writing. Denis barbier gave a very interesting talk at last Debconf about this (which talk, dammit, I couldn't attend because I had a D-I talk immediately after it). All Debconf videos are available from http://meetings-archive.debian.net/pub/debian-meetings/2005/debconf5/ Denis talk is http://meetings-archive.debian.net/pub/debian-meetings/2005/debconf5/mpeg/2005-07-15/06-Customization_of_GNU_libc_locale_files-Denis_Barbier.mpeg -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
