| Thib_ | hello, it was suggested I ask this non-support question here rather than in #ubuntu | 12:31 |
|---|---|---|
| Thib_ | I upgraded from Dapper to Edgy and no longer have a disk management tool out of the box; in Dapper it used to be System > Administration > Tool. Was that functionality removed from the default Edgy menu? | 12:32 |
| === givre [n=Florent@APuteaux-152-1-42-159.w82-120.abo.wanadoo.fr] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| === theCore [n=alex@modemcable128.255-131-66.mc.videotron.ca] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| cge | Thib_: If you don't get an answer, you can also ask on the mailing lists, which seem to be the best place to ask nontrivial questions. | 12:36 |
| lloydinho | Thib_: as far as I understand it, the reason that the Disks tool has been removed is because Upstream (ie. GNOME) no longer maintains that function. | 12:39 |
| === theCore [n=alex@modemcable128.255-131-66.mc.videotron.ca] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| lloydinho | So it has been removed from all of GNOME with 2.16 rather than just from Ubuntu. | 12:39 |
| Thib_ | lloydinho: oh so it *has* been removed. | 12:39 |
| Thib_ | lloydinho: okay that makes perfect sense. | 12:39 |
| lloydinho | Well, it still sucks to be without a graphical tool for disk management, but I suppose we'll have to manage for now. | 12:40 |
| Thib_ | just to clarify, I didn't mean to imply that was good or bad. Just wanted to know. | 12:40 |
| lloydinho | :-) | 12:40 |
| cge | We do have gparted in main. | 12:40 |
| Thib_ | right, I like a graphical tool too. | 12:40 |
| === theCore [n=alex@modemcable128.255-131-66.mc.videotron.ca] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| lloydinho | cge: True. But it isn't as easily discoverable for new users. | 12:40 |
| Thib_ | but since I'm upgrading several machines from Dapper to Edgy and they all "succeeded" i.e. failed slightly in subtly different ways, I'm just trying to determine what is intended changes and what isn't :-) | 12:41 |
| cge | lloydinho: Yes, it would have to be installed by default. | 12:41 |
| jordi | lloydinho: afaik there's something new that replaces it? | 12:41 |
| === gasbag [n=gasbag@68-116-196-5.dhcp.oxfr.ma.charter.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Thib_ | I'm happy with gparted. | 12:41 |
| lloydinho | jordi, not in the standard installation, as far as I can tell. | 12:42 |
| cge | Thib_: As you can see, getting answers to questions like that here is much calmer than in #ubuntu. | 12:42 |
| lloydinho | But when you install Gparted it slots right into the System -> Administration menu. | 12:42 |
| Thib_ | cge: it is :-) I just didn't realize this place existed. | 12:43 |
| cge | lloydinho: It appears that gparted is installed by default in the LiveCD, but not in the default installation. | 12:43 |
| Thib_ | lloydinho: it does? mine didn't, or maybe I need to log out and back in | 12:43 |
| lloydinho | Thib_: probably. | 12:44 |
| cge | Thib_: It does. | 12:44 |
| cge | Thib_: You could also try killing the panel. | 12:44 |
| Thib_ | killing the panel? | 12:44 |
| Thib_ | lol I've never thought about doing that :-) | 12:45 |
| Thib_ | does it, like, come back to life? | 12:45 |
| lloydinho | Thib_: killall gnome-panel | 12:45 |
| cge | Thib_: gnome-session brings it back to life, yes. | 12:45 |
| Thib_ | aha! | 12:45 |
| Thib_ | yes, now the icon is there | 12:45 |
| Thib_ | brilliant | 12:45 |
| Thib_ | well I learned two things today, that's great | 12:46 |
| Thib_ | many thanks, cge and lloydinho | 12:46 |
| === theCore [n=alex@modemcable128.255-131-66.mc.videotron.ca] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| lloydinho | Oh, and by the way: It's okay to come in here and ask a few questions when there's little developer activity, but generally the core-devs really like to keep the noise down in here, so they'll send you back #ubuntu | 12:46 |
| lloydinho | _to:_ #ubuntu | 12:46 |
| cge | lloydinho: No one answers questions like that #ubuntu, unfortunately. | 12:47 |
| === theCore [n=alex@modemcable128.255-131-66.mc.videotron.ca] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| lloydinho | Hm. That is unfortunate. Maybe we should get Seveas to teach Ubotu about it. :-) | 12:47 |
| cge | We need an #ubuntu-nontrivial channel. | 12:48 |
| lloydinho | jeez, there's almost a thousand users in #ubuntu. | 12:48 |
| cge | lloydinho: And it moves so fast that nontrivial questions become lost. | 12:49 |
| Thib_ | lol | 12:49 |
| Thib_ | well yeah | 12:49 |
| lloydinho | Yes. Problem would be that everybody will demand Special Attention (TM) and will go straight to the -nontrivial channel. | 12:49 |
| Thib_ | it's okay though, I know when I'm asking something out of the ordinary and I don't expect immediate technical answers, especially in a busy channel. | 12:49 |
| lloydinho | (at least that was the last explanation I heard). | 12:50 |
| cge | lloydinho: Yes, that's probably true. | 12:50 |
| === theCore [n=alex@modemcable128.255-131-66.mc.videotron.ca] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| cge | lloydinho: I'll have to think about ways to have a channel like that without having that problem. | 12:51 |
| === jeefers [n=jeefers@oh-76-1-36-130.dyn.embarqhsd.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| lloydinho | cge: Sounds like a good idea. If you come up with something good, write an email to the sounder mailing list or try to put it in a spec for discussion. | 12:52 |
| cge | lloydinho: I will. | 12:52 |
| cge | By the way, does anyone know if the official edgy cds that are being sold are pressed? None of the vendors say anything about the actual cds, and since they all sell burned CDs for nearly everything else, they probably need to mention it. | 12:54 |
| cge | Otherwise very few people are going to want to buy what appears to be a CD-R with edgy on it. | 12:55 |
| lloydinho | cge: There will be official Ubuntu DVDs that you can buy off amazon and such, I think. | 12:57 |
| lloydinho | cge: there's a list of authorized vendors as well: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/GetUbuntu#buycurrent | 12:58 |
| cge | lloydinho: There are places linked from ubuntu.com as selling "Official Ubuntu Edgy CDs", but since those places mainly sell burned CDs of linux distributions, it makes it look like that is what they are selling, even though I think they are selling pressed CDs from Canonical. | 12:58 |
| lloydinho | cge: oh. Well, I guess that would be their own fault, really. | 12:59 |
| cge | lloydinho: Ok, I'll try contacting them about it then. | 12:59 |

| tfheen | BHSPitMonkey: I'll at least take a look whether it's feasible. | 08:45 |
| BHSPitMonkey | I'm pretty happy with edgy, although I do have some issues (and I didn't upgrade!) | 08:45 |
| tfheen | ajmitch: we haven't really discussed it, but both mdz and the rest of the release team seems to be happy with what I did for edgy and it was fun, so I think I'll RM feisty too, yes. | 08:46 |
| BHSPitMonkey | tfheen, are there even goals set out? | 08:46 |
| tfheen | BHSPitMonkey: specs have been proposed, but not drafted and approved. | 08:46 |
| BHSPitMonkey | a lot of the concept of planning features specifically for OS+1 confuses me... it seems like just intentionally holding back a feature | 08:47 |
| tfheen | BHSPitMonkey: it's only six months until feisty is released. That's not very much time. | 08:47 |
| BHSPitMonkey | in order to pretty up a new release | 08:47 |
| ajmitch | it's often needed in order to have time to get it ready | 08:47 |
| tfheen | so it makes sense to plan which direction we want features to take over longer periods of time than just the next six months. | 08:48 |
| ajmitch | some of our specs may only be implemented in 12-18 months | 08:48 |
| BHSPitMonkey | no, it's like... "We need this, and this, and this improved! But as soon as it's been coded, let it sit on the shelf until the +1 release, so the release looks really big!" | 08:49 |
| tfheen | stuff generally don't get implemented and then shelved | 08:49 |
| ajmitch | what features do you think were held back? | 08:49 |
| BHSPitMonkey | why not have improvements in constant supply, that's just my dilemma | 08:49 |
| ajmitch | anything that's not ready by feature freeze doesn't go in - there has to be tiem to stabilise a release | 08:50 |
| BHSPitMonkey | and I'm not trying to argue or dissent or anything, I'm saying I don't really understand how these decisions work | 08:50 |
| tfheen | generally it comes down to whether we have time to implement stuff properly. | 08:50 |
| tfheen | it's much better to have one well-working feature than three mostly-broken ones | 08:50 |
| BHSPitMonkey | ok, well how does everything happen to be ready at the time of release | 08:51 |

| mnepton | BHSPitMonkey: you can install Tomboy on Dapper, it's just not a package in the defaults. | 08:52 |
| BHSPitMonkey | tfheen, poorly stated- I meant the "purdy" usplash | 08:52 |
| tfheen | BHSPitMonkey: and tomboy is in main in dapper too. It just wasn't part of the default install. | 08:53 |
| tfheen | BHSPitMonkey: because that wasn't coded until two months after dapper released? | 08:53 |

| gebruiker | I created a init script that changes the name of the ubuntu hostname, when should this be executed? At runlevel rcS? | 10:30 |
| cjwatson | gebruiker: why not just change the file /etc/hostname? | 10:32 |
| fabbione | cjwatson: it depends when it's executed. you also want /proc/sys/kernel/hostname | 10:32 |
| cjwatson | /etc/init.d/hostname.sh already reads /etc/hostname and sets the hostname according to that | 10:33 |
| cjwatson | there is no need for another init script | 10:33 |
| fabbione | oh right. there is that one too | 10:33 |
| gebruiker | cjwatson, We are selling ubuntu desktops, one of them contains 3 pc's and a printer, two of them ubuntu and 1 of them windows. We are cloning the hd images. Two computers can't have the same hostname on a lan | 10:33 |
| cjwatson | gebruiker: set /etc/hostname after cloning | 10:34 |
| cjwatson | gebruiker: that cannot possibly be harder than adding an init script | 10:34 |
| gebruiker | I'm able to add a init script, however, I was wondering wheiter it should be added at system level or elsewhere. | 10:34 |
| cjwatson | there's no point in adding an init script | 10:35 |
| cjwatson | if you need to set the hostname dynamically, then either edit /etc/init.d/hostname.sh or use DHCP | 10:35 |
| cjwatson | (there's a "host-name" option in DHCP - it's only honoured if the hostname is not set though) | 10:35 |
| gebruiker | the script that changes the hostname, invokes oem-config-prepare. So it has to done correctly. | 10:36 |

| infinity | doko: /usr/lib/libpthread.so.0 isn't a binary we ship (ours is in /lib) | 12:57 |
| cjwatson | Keybuk: probably attempting to fiddle with usplash's own tty | 12:57 |
| cjwatson | rather than ttys 1 to 6 | 12:58 |
| infinity | doko: Same with /usr/lib/libc6.so.6 | 12:58 |
| Keybuk | ah, how are we ignoring that now? | 12:58 |
| Keybuk | 1..6 or checking for !KD_TEXT ? | 12:58 |
| cjwatson | Keybuk: we aren't - console-setup was fixed to talk to the right ttys | 12:58 |
| infinity | doko: They have a non-standard libc installed. Not. Our. Problem. | 12:58 |
| cjwatson | Keybuk: using its existing configuration for which are the active consoles (/dev/tty[1-6] ) | 12:58 |
| Keybuk | ok | 12:58 |
| === herzi [n=herzi@kiwi.mediascape.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Keybuk | my only concern there is that it will break if someone disables tty2, etc. | 12:59 |
| Keybuk | but that concern is probably petty and woefully misplaced at this time | 12:59 |
| cjwatson | Keybuk: then it's easy to edit /etc/default/console-setup | 12:59 |
| ogra | Keybuk, nout for ltsp | 12:59 |
| Keybuk | might be worth checking the console mode | 12:59 |
| Keybuk | iterate active vts, check for KD_TEXT, and only then setup ? | 01:00 |
| Keybuk | that'd skip the X and usplash consoles | 01:00 |
| cjwatson | would be better to make consolechars (setfont in Feisty) do that check rather than pissing about trying to check it from shell | 01:00 |

| tepsipakki | how come the source for pine is not included in ubuntu as it is on debian? | 01:18 |

| ogra | thats what i mean | 02:03 |
| cjwatson | netinst == installer image plug base system | 02:03 |
| cjwatson | plus | 02:03 |
| cjwatson | ogra: netboot needs to stay generic; I don't want to build lots of variants of it | 02:03 |
| ogra | ltsp-server sets up tftp and the like so you only need to put the image in the right place ... | 02:04 |
| cjwatson | ogra: you should be able to preseed netboot to do whatever you want to do | 02:04 |
| ogra | i dont want to touch netboot | 02:04 |
| cjwatson | oh, you mean a netboot mode for ltsp? | 02:04 |
| ogra | preseeding will get me the dhcpd and tftpd infrastructure ready ? | 02:04 |
| cjwatson | forget what I said | 02:04 |
| ogra | i mean that you could re-use the ltsp package setup for netboot | 02:04 |
| cjwatson | ogra: sure, I guess | 02:05 |
| ogra | i'm expressing myself complicated today, sorry | 02:05 |
| cjwatson | ogra: sounds like it's entirely up to you | 02:05 |
| cjwatson | if you have people wanting it, and it's not too hard to do, then do it | 02:05 |
| ogra | well, i dont | 02:06 |
| ogra | but i see the question about netboot and how to set up dhcp and tftp more often | 02:06 |
| cjwatson | then perhaps you should not do it | 02:06 |
| cjwatson | that's not really connected to LTSP | 02:06 |
| ogra | so i thought about a howto like: install ltsp-server and copy the image to ... | 02:07 |
| cjwatson | it shouldn't be tied into LTSP, IMO | 02:07 |
| ogra | ... then boot your client and watch it install | 02:07 |

| PSUSI | fabbione: hey, I noticed you made some changes to the lvm initramfs script since dapper | 04:59 |
| iwj | `If [condition not going to be met] ' is always easier to say than `no' ... | 04:59 |
| PSUSI | fabbione: it now assumes a boot path starting with /dev/mapper is LVM, and breaks it into vulume group and volume components, and spins for 3 mins waiting for the vg to appear in /dev | 04:59 |
| PSUSI | fabbione: this causes dmraid booting systems to appear to lock up for 3 mins during boot, so I was wondering why this change was made? | 05:00 |
| fabbione | it does only if root is on LVM | 05:00 |
| PSUSI | right.... it thinks root is on lvm if root is on dmraid | 05:00 |
| jdub | iwj: versus "uh, we're not going to ship your shit anyway"? :) | 05:00 |
| PSUSI | that's the problem I ran into | 05:00 |
| fabbione | PSUSI: it's a problem with some devices that takes longer to apper to the kernel. | 05:00 |
| PSUSI | but I'm wondering why the script waits for the volume group to appear in dev? | 05:00 |
| PSUSI | doesn't it just need the volume itself to appear? | 05:00 |
| fabbione | i am trying to explain.. let me write | 05:01 |
| === JanC [n=janc@lugwv/member/JanC] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| PSUSI | k | 05:01 |
| fabbione | basically in some cases the lvm script was executed before the underneath devices were available | 05:01 |
| fabbione | making the vgchange command exit immediatly | 05:01 |
| fabbione | that means that the initramfs would have waited forever for / | 05:02 |
| fabbione | so lvm needs to wait and scan while devices are appearing in the system | 05:03 |
| fabbione | once the VG is available it can exit the loop and go to mount root | 05:03 |
| cjwatson | pitti: heh | 05:03 |
| _ion | Hm, i think i ran into that, too, when i tried booting the md (RAID-1) + LVM system without the other HDD. Unfortunately i didn't have the chance to look into that because i had to get the 24/7 system running ASAP. | 05:03 |
| === Spads_ [n=spacehob@217.205.109.249] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| PSUSI | fabbione: isn't udev-settle supposed to hold the scripts until all the devices have been detected? | 05:04 |
| fabbione | PSUSI: nope... | 05:04 |
| fabbione | did try to add udev-settle.. doesn't work on slow devices | 05:04 |
| fabbione | _ion: a degraded raid is a totally different story | 05:04 |
| PSUSI | hrm... | 05:04 |
| fabbione | i was still getting lvm executed way before the device was there | 05:05 |
| Keybuk | udevsettle holds the scripts until devices that HAVE ALREADY BEEN DETECTED have been configured | 05:05 |
| _ion | fabbione: Ah, ok. | 05:05 |
| PSUSI | ok.... well, I'd sugest that the loop print something to let the user know that it is still waiting after day, 10 seconds at most, and again if it times out completely | 05:05 |
| Keybuk | there's obviously no way to wait for devices that have not yet been detected | 05:05 |
| Keybuk | because if they've not been detected, we don't know to wait for them | 05:05 |
| PSUSI | doesn't it wait for the bus scan to complete though? thus we know all devices have been detected? | 05:06 |
| Keybuk | most modern bus scans have no concept of completion | 05:06 |
| Keybuk | take USB, for example; how do you know that an arbitrary topology tree-formed bus has completed a scan? | 05:06 |
| PSUSI | fabbione: hrm.... well can you sugest any way that it could be kept from clashing with dmraid? Other than just removing lvm from the initramfs? | 05:07 |
| _ion | fabbione: I take it the delay caused by booting with a degraded RAID-1 is a known problem? (Sorry, didn't yet look at launchpad bugs) | 05:07 |
| PSUSI | Keybuk: simple... you have queried all the hubs | 05:08 |
| PSUSI | and all ports on those hubs | 05:08 |
| fabbione | PSUSI: i am not sure.. the only way we have to know it's to wait for the VG to appear in /dev | 05:08 |
| Keybuk | PSUSI: and what if a hub is connected to those ports? | 05:08 |
| fabbione | _ion: i don't know about that bug. what i am saying that the problem you are describing is different from what PSUSI is talking about | 05:08 |
| Keybuk | what if the hub takes 3s to power up, and doesn't return an announcement of its own presence until then? | 05:08 |
| _ion | fabbione: Ok, right. | 05:08 |
| === mvo [n=egon@pD951F5ED.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| fabbione | _ion: also.. i see no reason why initramfs should hold up on a degraded raid. | 05:09 |
| PSUSI | fabbione: let me make sure if I get this then.... the VG appears first, then the script must run a command to create the volume itself? | 05:09 |
| === lukketto [n=lukketto@host238-159-dynamic.6-87-r.retail.telecomitalia.it] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| fabbione | _ion: it *CAN* wait only if you have a configured raid and you remove it completely (100%) from the system and that's documented | 05:09 |
| PSUSI | Keybuk: then you have not scanned all hubs yet, keep scanning | 05:09 |
| Keybuk | PSUSI: and how do we know that there's no device on a port? | 05:09 |
| fabbione | PSUSI: no. the problems are devices that are part of the LVM volume and that are not there when lvm script is executed. | 05:10 |
| PSUSI | Keybuk: iirc, usb detectes taht there is a device connected to the port via the characteristic impeadence, so its prescense is known immediately | 05:10 |
| Keybuk | PSUSI: not true | 05:10 |
| fabbione | PSUSI: the only way to know that root is on lvm is when root=/dev/mapper.. | 05:10 |
| Keybuk | a long cable with nothing on it would be detected as a connected device by that means | 05:10 |
| fabbione | PSUSI: and we know that the VG is active once there is the directory in /dev | 05:11 |
| Keybuk | which would cause the boot to hang while we waited for the device on the other end to announce itself | 05:11 |
| PSUSI | fabbione: right, but what creates those devices? I thought that the scripts ran commands that scanned actual disk devices, and then created the dm devices on top? | 05:11 |
| PSUSI | fabbione: so the scripts should depend on the real underlying hardware, not the vg device no? | 05:11 |
| fabbione | PSUSI: vgchange... | 05:11 |
| PSUSI | Keybuk: which is why there is a maximum cable length | 05:12 |
| fabbione | PSUSI: not really.. you can't add these information in the initramfs. LVM is way too flexible for that | 05:12 |
| fabbione | PSUSI: LVM scans the disks for LVM UUIDS to see if all devices to activate a certain VG are there.. regardless of their name (sda sdb..) | 05:12 |
| fabbione | PSUSI: so a device might appear always with a different name | 05:12 |
| PSUSI | fabbione: the vg does not appear until you run vgchange though right? | 05:12 |
| fabbione | and LVM will still work | 05:13 |
| fabbione | yes right | 05:13 |
| fabbione | but you don't know what devices are part of the vg | 05:13 |
| PSUSI | fabbione: is this done by udev callouts or by an vgchange like command? | 05:13 |
| fabbione | vgchange calls | 05:13 |
| fabbione | (it's the only way) | 05:13 |
| PSUSI | called from where? udev, or the script? | 05:14 |
| PSUSI | if it is from the script, then the devices should appear synchronously no? | 05:14 |
| fabbione | or you need a much more complex algo that will still invoke the lvm binary | 05:14 |
| fabbione | script | 05:14 |
| fabbione | udev doesn't do anything for us yet | 05:14 |
| fabbione | (it will in feisty.. HI SCOTT!) | 05:14 |
| PSUSI | oh wait, ok, I see now... the script just keeps calling the binary to search all known devices for a vg | 05:14 |
| PSUSI | and it either finds them all and makes the vg or not | 05:14 |
| fabbione | for THE vg | 05:14 |
| PSUSI | if not, the script delasy 0.1 seconds, and tries again | 05:15 |
| fabbione | exactly | 05:15 |
| fabbione | 0.5 but yes | 05:15 |
| Keybuk | fabbione: maybe | 05:15 |
| fabbione | vgchange is expensive | 05:15 |
| fabbione | Keybuk: just kidding :) | 05:15 |
| Keybuk | fabbione: we will either use udev callouts for LVM/EVMS/etc. | 05:15 |
| Keybuk | fabbione: or we will drop support for them entirely | 05:15 |
| fabbione | Keybuk: drop support is not an option | 05:15 |

| ulaas | cjwatson: is 'dpkg-reconfigure debconf' enough? | 10:48 |
| ulaas | cjwatson: or do i need to do something for the frontend isn't set to noninteractive thing.. | 10:48 |
| cjwatson | early edgy> could be a different problem then. If it's the problem I'm thinking of, then 'dpkg-reconfigure debconf' is sufficient, but if it's some other problem then I do not know. | 10:48 |
| cjwatson | (the usual default for the frontend is dialog) | 10:49 |
| cjwatson | ulaas: failing that try 'sudo env DEBCONF_DEBUG=developer apt-get install sun-java5' for a better debug trace that you can put in a bug report | 10:49 |
