=== cjb [n=cjb@islay.ra.phy.cam.ac.uk] has joined #ubuntu-devel
cjbHello.  I think linux-image-2.6.15-8-amd64-k8-smp has been compiled without SATA support; I get a panic mounting the root fs, where the previous 2.6.15.x have been fine.02:14
infinityIt definitely has SATA support.02:15
infinityAfter you panic to a shell, can you 'cat /proc/partition' and see if your SATA drive (/dev/sda, for instance), has magically moved to being an IDE driver (/dev/hda, etc)?02:16
cjbI'll do that now.  Thanks.02:16
infinityIf so, the bug lives in how we do module load ordering in the udev setup.02:16
=== infinity runs to the corner store.
infinityBack in 5.02:17
cjbI'm left without /proc after dropping to a tty.  How should I mount it?  02:19
cjb(I suppose I could also just try root=/dev/hda3 and see if it works..)02:19
TheMusocjb: Don't forget that /etc/fstab has the original partition entry, which means teh boot will halt when it tries to remount the root filesystem read-write.02:20
cjbNope, /dev/hda3 fails too.02:22
mdkesounds like a different bug02:22
cjbTheMuso: Haven't got far enough to be able to see /etc yet.  :)02:22
crimsuncjb: echo $ROOT02:25
cjbinfinity's correct about /lib/modules/2.6.15-8-amd64-k8-smp/kernel/drivers/scsi/sata_*.ko being present.  02:25
infinityIf you don't h /proc yet, you're definitely seeing a different bug than the one I was describing.02:26
cjbcrimsun: As passed to the kernel?  root=/dev/sda3 is what I usually pass, and I've now tried root/dev/hda3.  02:26
=== infinity ponders.
cjbOh!  I have /proc this boot.  partitions is empty, though.02:27
infinityCan you boot without "quiet" and "splash" and watch the kernel output?.. See if it's loading your drivers at all?02:27
infinityAlso, cat /proc/modules and see if the right drivers appear to be loaded.02:28
cjbJust did that.  :)  sata_sil and scsi_mod are loaded.02:28
cjbI see:  ata1: SATA link up 1.5Gbps .. ata1: dev0 not supported, ignoring.02:32
cjb(There's only one hdd in the machine, and my IDE DVD/CD drives are up on hd{c,d} -- it must be the SATA hdd that it's talking about.)02:33
infinityOh, fun.02:33
cjbSo I wonder if "not supported" means that the SATA module I need isn't there.  Lemme boot back into the good kernel and see what it uses.02:34
infinityI'd take that one to #ubuntu-kernel and complain to BenC, then... (or file a bug on the "linux" package02:34
cjbAh hah.  Thanks much.02:34
BenCdev0 is a cdrom?02:35
infinityNo, it's his hard drive. :)02:35
infinityroot device, no less.02:35
BenCcjb: is there an error line before ata1: dev0 not supported, ignoring?02:37
=== zenrox [n=zenrox@71.115.198.118] has joined #ubuntu-devel
cjbIt's just using sata_sil under the (working) 2.6.15-6-amd64-k8-smp, which is the same module that's loaded but not working with 2.6.15-8.02:38
cjbBenC: No, the previous line is the quoted one finding the channel.02:38
BenCthat message gets spit out thwn ata_id_is_ata() returns false, so something is saying that your harddrive is not actually an ATA drive :)02:39
cjb /proc/scsi/scsi under 2.6.15-6 disagrees with whatever is saying that :)02:39
BenCs/thwn/when/, not sure how I got that from my keyboard02:39
BenCI've seen this in one other bug report02:40
BenCbut it got fixed with -8, not broken with it02:40
cjbAnd fixes never cause regressions, right?  :)02:41
BenCit shouldn't cause the same regression that it fixes, that would make it not a fix :)02:41
cjbI don't know if that's what's happened, though; I have been following each of the dapper kernels, so it seems fairly straightforward that something has changed that's breaking it for me.  I'm not doing anything more complicated than apt-get'ing the newer image.02:42
BenCI'm not saying that it isn't broken02:42
BenCI'm saying that the same error you have, I fixed for another use by reverting the driver back to stock source for -802:43
BenChold on a second02:43
cjb'kay.  I'd be interested to see the diff.02:43
BenCI need to make sure this is the same driver (it was sata, but maybe not the sil driver)02:44
BenCnope, stock code02:45
BenCso whatever is in 2.6.15-rc6 is what I have in my tree02:45
BenCthe patch I had was basically a pull from jgarzik's libata git tree02:46
cjbHrr.  Righto.02:46
cjbWell, let me know if I can do anything to track it down.  I suppose for now I'll starting building my own kernels and keep trying your latest ones when they come out.02:55

lamontdaniels: ping03:06
dooglusif I use the dapper build of firefox, it doesn't know any trusted certificate authorities.  running the official mozilla build on the same profile does see the authorities.  should I report this as a bug?03:31
dooglusor is dapper in enough of a state of flux that it's not worth reporting?03:31
=== LaserJock [n=LaserJoc@ppp-69-239-136-146.dsl.renocs.pacbell.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel
cjbI'm running what is presumably the same build, and do have a CA chain.03:32
exarkunif you had an old profile, or run an official firefox build with a profile created w/ dapper's firefox, it will add the CAs to the profile, and subsequent runs of dapper's firefox will have the CA chain.03:33
marcinhi I see you guys are talking about firefox on dapper - on my dekstop firefox doesn't work at all - it shows a little window with "<window id.... " info and that's all03:40
marcinis that a known issue or should I file the bug?03:41
cjbActually, I blitzed my profile this morning.  You're saying that the CA chain is stored in each user's profile, then, and not given to a new profile?  Why?03:41
cjbmarcin: Not seeing that here.  Try killing your profile.03:41
marcinI removed almost everything from my ~/ and still no luck03:42
marcincjb: is there another way to kill profile?03:42
cjbmv .firefox .firefox-bak should do it.03:42
marcincjb: epiphany is usable - but firefox isn't03:42
exarkununless your profiles are in ~/.mozilla :)03:43
cjbYou can also try firefox -ProfileManager03:43
marcinremoved old profile and created new... ffox still broken03:44
marcinit says - starting 'deer park' and then... as I said before03:44
marcinmaybe I'll try to uninstall ffox and manually remove all ffox directories in /usr03:45
dooglusI tried making a new profile with the dapper firefox.  It still shows no CA chain.03:48
dooglusbut then running the official mozilla build with the profile that the dapper build made shows the chain just fine.03:48
dooglusI installed dapper in a chroot a long time ago, and now am booting it directly using LILO - I don't know if that resulted in me missing some essential setup03:49
=== ozamosi [n=nnnnnnnn@tor/session/x-804157264809d502] has joined #ubuntu-devel
exarkuna dist-upgrade from breezy does the same thing03:49
exarkunI am pretty sure the ff package is just broken.03:49
dooglusI don't think it ever went though a full install procedure - like it never asked me what kind of keyboard I have - and so in virtual consoles it uses the USA layout.03:50
dooglusexarkun: but cjb has it working...03:50
dooglusexarkun: and I didn't do a dist-upgrade.  I ran some command which installed dapper in a chroot, and then I configured lilo to boot that chroot partition directly.03:51
dooglusso it's never been "installed" other than by the script which set up the initial chroot03:51
dooglusincidentally, if you run "sudo passwd", type your user password if prompted and then type control-d to both the password prompts, do you see a sigsegv?03:52
marcinhaaa finally - thanks guys - I manually cleaned profile and all firefox dirs in /var and /usr and now it's usable03:52

LaserJockI just hear a lot about them but I don't use them so I don't really know what they do05:19
crimsunthere're nasty threads on u-u about that05:21
mjg59LaserJock: postfix is a mail server05:21
LaserJockcrimsun: yeah, that is what I'm trying to figure out05:21
crimsunmost of them completely over-the-top and incoherent05:21

Tm_Tin general, you don't need thunderbird and evolution05:23
Tm_Tjust one05:23
LaserJockwell, I know I don't need both I was just thinking that those two would cover most of the Ubuntu users email usage05:23
LaserJockI'm just trying to figure out why people would be so mad about not having mailx/postfix on the install cd05:27
Tm_Theh05:28
lamontmjg59: postfix was default install in warty, can't remember about hoary, gone from base in breezy05:30
lamontwas in ubuntu-base in hoary05:30
lamontstill in breezy ship-seed, iirc05:30
mjg59lamont: Yeah, that's what I thought05:30
lamontand the effort had and has my full endorsement.05:31
lamont(ship, not part of base or desktop)05:31
LaserJockI mean I was kinda weirded out when I saw that Ubuntu doesn't install the ssh server by default but there are logical reasons so I'm ok with it. I install it first thing when I install Ubuntu, no problem05:31
=== Pygi [n=mario@83-131-248-197.adsl.net.t-com.hr] has joined #ubuntu-devel
LaserJockseems like a similar situation with mailx/postfix05:31
lamontLaserJock: that's the same reason I supported not installing postfix by default05:31
lamontspecifically, the desktop install must present _NO_ externally listening ports (127.0.0.1 is OK, but still discouraged)05:32
lamonthence no ssh server, and (in warty/hoary) a crippled postfix install.  By dropping it from the base install, I get to ask the questions I need to properly configure things if you do choose to install it.05:32
lamont--> good thing05:32
LaserJockmakes sense to me05:35
lamontLaserJock: the other edict is "no questions unless you (1) can't configure without asking it, and (2) grandma will know the answer."  postfix's required questions fail (2)05:35
lamontand frankly, an MTA on grandma's machine is just going to slowly fill /var/mail, and never get read, or understood if it is read.05:36

infinitydholbach : Two problems I can see.  firefox-dev doesn't depend on libnss-dev/libnspr-dev (oops), and even if it did, the headers are probably in the wrong location to be found.07:38

infinitydholbach : Easy enough to fix, I'm just busy.  Fix the firefox source package to install the headers to the same location they were at in breezy.. (I think we just have an extra subdirectory in the path), fix firefox-dev to depend on libsnpr-dev and libnss-dev, and make sure the ffox headers can find nspr (some symlinks might do for now)07:44
JaneWhi jsgotangco 07:45
infinityie : /usr/include/firefox/nspr -> ../../mozilla/nspr or so.07:45
dholbachinfinity: what about the two different libnspr* packages? Does (= ${Source-Version}) just work in this case?07:45
infinitydholbach : And test a build with a known-failing package before uploading. :)07:46
dholbachrighto07:46
infinitydholbach : The ones from mozilla will be removed.  But yes, the firefox-dev -> libnss/nspr-dev dependencies should be versioned.07:46
dholbach(I just thought it might not work, because of mozilla's packages having epochs and everything.)07:47
infinityThe firefox versions have a higher version number.07:47

janimois ubuntu-docs supposed to use update-alternatives soon?02:15
janimoand kubuntu-docs as well02:15
janimoinfinity said someting about that, since it is better than dpkg-divert02:15
Riddelljanimo: I thought \sh had already changed it to that02:16
janimoseems not, inifinity said it's just symlink by hand02:16
janimoand to do that ubuntu-docs has to have that too I assume02:17
Kamionfor update-alternatives, all packages shipping the relevant file must cooperate02:18
infinityWhich isn't rocket science in this case.02:20
infinitySo we should just Do It.02:20
Riddellhmm, postinst sets a symlink while postrm unsets dpkg-divert02:20
infinityHe probably forgot to remove that from postrm, since both used to divert.02:21
Riddellif update-alternatives is the right thing to do I can just do it later today02:21
infinityAnyhow.  We should switch to alternatives for all the packages shipping that file, since you can't divergt a file more than once.02:21
janimowho has to be nudged for ubuntu-docs?02:21

ograinfinity, i used the debian source ... but apparently they use kino-0.8.0 as source dir, i packaged the orig.tar.gz with a kino-0.80 source dir... so while the contents are identical, the md5sum differs :/03:09
infinityogra : Yes, but you can't fix that in an upload is what I'm saying.03:09
infinityogra : Cause you can't re-upload a new orig.tar.gz.03:09
infinityogra : (overwriting files in the archive isn't allowed, for reasons that would be obvious if you thought for a bit)03:10
ograso what should i write in such a case in the changelog ?03:10
infinityogra : Erm.  Well, what did the upload change?03:10
ograsee the rejected 1ubuntu1 ...03:11
infinityogra : The changelog made it sound like you replaced the orig.tar.gz with another.  Which is impossible, so obviously you did something else.03:11
ograi packaged 0.80 ahead of debian ... 03:11
infinityogra : No one sees rejects except for you and the ftpmaster (of which I'm not one)03:11

=== greenpenguin13 [n=joseph@user-6552.l3.c1.dsl.pol.co.uk] has left #ubuntu-devel []
dokothe problem is: when you install firefox-dev, the firefox-n*.pc point to libs and headers which do no exist. we already had this dicussion for breezy, but apparently gnome so broken that seb128 didn't want a fix ...05:38
dholbachthe split happened in said last upload05:39
seb128GNOME is not broken05:40
seb128and they don't point to non existant file05:40
seb128that's just a fud05:40

dholbachi hope diziet will bring a new world order and peace next year :)06:04
dokodholbach: symlinks to directories?06:06
dholbachyes06:06
seb128doko: so firefix is bugged on that, I still fail to see why GNOME apps are bugged?06:06
seb128doko: firefox-dev should change its .pc or ship the header for nss too06:06
dokoseb128: I don't know, but apparently you did revert my last change to firefox, so you should know06:07
dokodholbach: so you manually remove the directories in the preinst?06:07
dholbachno06:07
dholbachwhat should i remove?06:07
seb128doko: you changed the nspr stuff which is not bugged IIRC06:08
dokodpkg doesn't replace symlinks with directories and vice versa.06:08
dokoso you end up with an empty directory.06:08
dokoon upgrade06:08
dholbachdiziet's last upload installed stuff to /usr/include/mozilla which should have been in /usr/include/mozilla-firefox06:09
dholbachthe nspr/ headers06:09
dokodholbach: correct, so /usr/include/mozilla/nspr will be an empty directory after an upgrade06:10
Kamionconversely, if you've installed a symlink and later we decide that it should become a directory, making the world right will involve nasty preinst trickery06:10

slomo_jbailey: just a short question or better two ;) the ppc buildds are ppc64 afaik... is it possible that something breaks (i.e. segfaults) on ppc64 running as 32bit binary but not on a normal ppc? and mvo told me you have access to a ppc64, could you test something for me?07:43
jbaileyslomo_: It's possible, yes.  Whenever you have a kernel emulating a different userspace, it has to have a set of thunks to make the non-native space work.  There's always room for bugs in there.07:44
jbaileyAnd depending on what it is that you want tested, yes I can.07:44

jbaileysivang: It doesn't, but that's fine.08:19
jbaileysivang: My theory is that Linux is doing the right thing.  It's slowly evolving until it turns into what the Hurd wanted to be, but tested by experience.08:19
sivangjbailey: sorry, not "Linux claims" but at least that's what RL says in the book.08:19
sivangjbailey: ah08:20
jbaileysivang: As recently as today, I managed to get a process that kill -9 wouldn't take out.  It's a pretty strong hint that we still have user applications that can permanently tie up precious kernel resources.08:21

janimoKamion, do derivatives need to provide gfxboot themes in separate packages as with usplash?09:27
Kamionjanimo: no09:27
Kamiongfxboot-theme-ubuntu is designed to handle derivatives with the only branding changes required being in debian-cd09:28
TreenaksKamion: do you have any clue on "my" bug yet?09:28
Kamionand all that does is stick a splash.pcx image in /isolinux/ on the CD09:28
KamionTreenaks: I think I already said I'd "fix" it by killing the timeout clock09:28
TreenaksKamion: oh ok :)09:29
janimoKamion, great09:29
Kamionbut I tried to do that this morning and it was less trivial than you might imagine; I'll give it another go later09:29
TreenaksKamion: I saw a few uploads like that today -- does that mean it will be fixed in tomorrow's daily?09:29
KamionTreenaks: no09:29
Treenakshmm ok :)09:29
Kamionas I say, I tried, but the initial approach I took produced a lot of screen flicker as the timeout fired09:29
KamionI'll try a slightly different approach next time which updates less of the screen each time09:30
TreenaksKamion: ok09:30
Treenaks(I really want to test the new ati driver ... but I don't want to hose my breezy install :))09:30
Kamionstill don't know why it really occurs, which disturbs me slightly, but hey09:31
Loioshati driver? fglrx?09:31
KamionTreenaks: hold down shift during boot and you can choose to bypass gfxboot09:31
TreenaksKamion: if I can do anything more to debug.. I've seen  the display switch from 1 error to another09:31
TreenaksLoiosh: no, ati09:31
TreenaksLoiosh: fglrx already works. ati never has on this machine09:31
LoioshAhhh09:32
Kamionunfortunately I think it's going to be too tedious - if I actually had the laptop in front of me, I might be able to do more, but it'd be really hard work to teleoperate somebody else09:32
LoioshI had to use fgl becaue my x600 wasn't supported yet in ati.09:32
TreenaksLoiosh: X700 here09:32
LoioshSo they have X--- support in ati now? =)09:32
TreenaksKamion: hm ok.. would a shot of the other error screen help?09:32
=== Loiosh wags!
TreenaksKamion: (different numbers in the trace box)09:33
KamionTreenaks: sure, would do no harm I guess09:33
Kamionwhen did it occur?09:33
TreenaksKamion: uh, that appeared automatically09:33
TreenaksKamion: another one pops up when pressing a key09:33
TreenaksKamion: brb09:33
Kamionyou mean pressing a key at the trace box?09:34
KamionTreenaks: come back :)09:34
TreenaksKamion: ok :)09:34
KamionTreenaks: if you press a key at the trace box, it single-steps09:34
Kamionso no, the next one wouldn't be useful09:34
TreenaksKamion: If I boot from the CD, and wait for a bit, the trace box pops up; if I press a key before the trace box pops up, I get another error09:34
TreenaksKamion: hm if it single-steps09:35
TreenaksI might have sent you a wrong screenshot... sorry09:35
TreenaksKamion: so I'm going to check09:35

jordijdong: is it out?10:27
jdongjordi: I meant the beta10:28
seb128lunitik: uploading something that will probably destroy users' config? no 10:28
seb128we have enough bugs without that10:29
jdongseb128: gaim 2 beta does have its way with eating profiles for breakfast10:29
lunitikseb128: I just had it installed, but apparently I'm too dumb to get SSL (and thus MSN) working  :(10:30
seb128that's what you get by beeing too impatient10:30
lunitikseb128: It maintained a lot of settings, although some did go bye bye...10:30
seb128gaim 1.5 works fine enough to use it a few extra days no?10:30

seb128:)10:35
jdonglunitik: not a convincing or significant list10:35
jdongand I still find it insulting how they're removing more and more options10:35
lunitikseb128: doodle allows you to draw things for the person you're chatting to, stealth allows you to appear offline to some people, nudge and buzz allow you to get the contacts attention....10:35
lunitikjdong: blame the HIG imo... although most I don't play with...10:35
