| RenatoSilva | are you ubuntu developers??? | 04:42 |
|---|---|---|
| Hobbsee | RenatoSilva: no. we just sit here and pretend. duh | 04:42 |
| Burgundavia | some of us are, some of us aren't | 04:42 |
| Burgundavia | Hobbsee: ;) | 04:42 |
| Hobbsee | hiya Burgundavia, how's it going? | 04:42 |
| Burgundavia | back from Texas and sick | 04:43 |
| Hobbsee | awww | 04:43 |
| RenatoSilva | and sapdfl, where does he is? | 04:43 |
| Burgundavia | umm? | 04:43 |
| Hobbsee | RenatoSilva: what did you want? | 04:43 |
| RenatoSilva | Hobbsee: do I incomodate you, because I'm not ubuntu developer, what kind of talk may I have here?? | 04:44 |
| === Hobbsee wonders what incomodate is | ||
| Burgundavia | RenatoSilva: yes, you can talk here, as long it is on topic | 04:45 |
| RenatoSilva | i'm bad in elglish, sorry | 04:45 |
| Burgundavia | if you have a bug report, please file it on Launchpad | 04:45 |
| Burgundavia | a suggestions for a new feature is a spec | 04:45 |
| Hobbsee | ah. didnt know that word. | 04:45 |
| bhale | you might get more help in #ubuntu-br | 04:45 |
| RenatoSilva | to "incomodate" is to make something that make someone unconfortable, something non-suitable | 04:46 |
| RenatoSilva | i dunno the correct verb | 04:46 |
| RenatoSilva | Burgundavia: about what can i talk? | 04:46 |
| Burgundavia | see the topic | 04:46 |
| Hobbsee | RenatoSilva: see the /topic | 04:46 |
| RenatoSilva | Hobbsee: it's unclear | 04:47 |
| Hobbsee | RenatoSilva: right, what did you want to talk about? | 04:47 |
| Hobbsee | this channel is for the development of ubuntu, not support | 04:47 |
| RenatoSilva | Hobbsee: let's test if my talk is or not on topic | 04:47 |
| RenatoSilva | Hobbsee: i want to talk about winmodem support (but don't give me wiki pages, launchpad etc. i'm not a dummy user!!!!!) | 04:48 |
| RenatoSilva | Hobbsee: may I? | 04:48 |
| bhale | the topic is very clear on this not being for support | 04:50 |
| _ion | This discussion has already been 30 lines. :-) | 04:50 |
| jdong | _ion: the discussion about discussing? | 04:50 |
| _ion | Yeah, that. | 04:50 |
| _ion | Metadiscussion | 04:51 |
| bhale | if you want to develop more support for winmodems you want to specify it in wiki/launchpad | 04:51 |
| jdong | premetadiscussional planning | 04:51 |
| bhale | no one called you a dummy | 04:51 |
| Hobbsee | RenatoSilva: people here are concentrating on releasing feisty. winmodem support will not change for feisty, at this point. i suspect you're out of luck, at least for the next couple of weeks. what you really want to do is see the ubuntu-devel mailing list, as the dialogue goes on there | 04:51 |
| RenatoSilva | _ion: metadiscussion? rsss!!! | 04:51 |
| RenatoSilva | Hobbsee: ok, but can you let me make about 2 paragraph-comment about it? | 04:52 |
| Hobbsee | if you like, but it probably wont do much, seeing as the devs you're looking for arent ehre, and everyone's busy working on feisty, bug fixing... | 04:53 |
| _ion | One could find it humorous that his screen is 75% full of discussion pretty much about can i please make a two line comment about something. :-) | 04:54 |
| RenatoSilva | Hobbsee: Jesus! Just let me say, I don't want support, neither to relate a bug | 04:54 |
| Hobbsee | RenatoSilva: i realise that... | 04:54 |
| RenatoSilva | _ion: ok, so let's go!!! I'll tell you right before you kick me off :D | 04:55 |
| bhale | please don't yell. | 04:55 |
| jdong | go ahead and say what you want to say.... | 04:55 |
| RenatoSilva | Fortunately most of I want to say is in this page I've found right today: | 04:56 |
| RenatoSilva | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OutoftheboxWinmodem | 04:56 |
| RenatoSilva | I dunno if you fully know that content | 04:56 |
| RenatoSilva | Additionaly I want to say that | 04:57 |
| RenatoSilva | Here in Brazil, which on the countrary of most of you can think, it's not that whom Buenos Aires is capital... | 04:58 |
| RenatoSilva | Well, here... | 04:58 |
| RenatoSilva | it's a very important issue, considering the resolution of bug #1 | 04:58 |
| ubotu | Malone bug 1 in jl "Microsoft has a majority market share" [Critical,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1 | 04:58 |
| Hobbsee | RenatoSilva: winmodem support so far has not been done, not because of lack of interest, but lack of active developers. if you're interested in coding it, or finding a team of people to code it, then that would be great. | 04:59 |
| RenatoSilva | there's here a GREAT demand for this support, and it will certaintly spread even more the use of ubuntu around our *million* of windows users | 04:59 |
| Hobbsee | RenatoSilva: but waving the magic wand and hoping that it'll be done for you doesnt always work | 05:00 |
| Hobbsee | seeing as there are limited resources, and lots of worthy projects that the ubuntu developers want to work on | 05:00 |
| RenatoSilva | Hobbsee: this is what i wanted to say | 05:00 |
| Hobbsee | RenatoSilva: great | 05:00 |
| RenatoSilva | Hobbsee: I want to know I what I say, including Brazil's scenario, is something new to you | 05:01 |
| jdong | RenatoSilva: I think most of us are aware that many many countries still run primarily dial-up | 05:02 |
| RenatoSilva | Hobbsee: if it's new, only to make you know this, so that you can use it as strategic information, is enough to me | 05:02 |
| Hobbsee | RenatoSilva: it's not new. like i say, it's not a lack of interest in the project - it's a lack of developers. seeing as most of them arent paid, we cant force them to do particular stuff, unless they're interested. | 05:03 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: what do you mean by aware? volunteerly aware? | 05:03 |
| RenatoSilva | Hobbsee: great!! | 05:03 |
| jdong | RenatoSilva: aware, as in most of us already knew what you claim. there is nothing earth-shattering | 05:03 |
| RenatoSilva | Hobbsee: thank you for useful information, i didn't noticed that! | 05:04 |
| jdong | RenatoSilva: winmodem support is indeed important but there do not appear to be a massive rush of developers interested in getting it coded | 05:04 |
| Hobbsee | wow, there's even a bounty for doing it, it looks like | 05:04 |
| jdong | and work is indeed going into it.... | 05:04 |
| jdong | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MainInclusionReportSlModem | 05:04 |
| jdong | there are MIR's filed for SmartLink modem support | 05:04 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: sorry for the bad English | 05:04 |
| jdong | no sweat :) | 05:05 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: so, are you very interested on it, but limited, is that? | 05:05 |
| RenatoSilva | Hobbsee: what about the page I've passed? | 05:05 |
| Hobbsee | RenatoSilva: looks good. same answer as above, though | 05:06 |
| jdong | RenatoSilva: I would be interested in doing it, if I have (1) the time (2) A variety of softmodems to test on | 05:06 |
| RenatoSilva | Hobbsee: it's related to a blueprint, it's a official concern, but the limitation is missing of developers? right? | 05:06 |
| ajmitch | jdong: how about hardware documentation? | 05:07 |
| Hobbsee | RenatoSilva: pretty much | 05:07 |
| jdong | ajmitch: well there are already several drivers out there that are just not preconfigured by default :-/ | 05:07 |
| RenatoSilva | Hobbsee: thank you very much!!!! | 05:07 |
| jdong | ajmitch: I think Ubuntu _can_ do better integrating currently available softmodem drivers.... | 05:08 |
| jdong | but yeah, it is work | 05:08 |
| jdong | and going to be full of hardware black magic | 05:08 |
| RenatoSilva | Hobbsee: so if you want, think in Brazil when considering the importance assigned to this "bug", maybe becoming more mainstream makes more developers to be interested on it | 05:08 |
| Hobbsee | RenatoSilva: maybe, yes. | 05:09 |
| RenatoSilva | Hobbsee: I'm very sad of not being able to help, I thought it was missing of attention with us, but missing is of programmers, and I did not knew taht | 05:09 |
| jdong | most missing functionality is due to a lack of infinite developer resources :) | 05:10 |

| RenatoSilva | Hobbsee: I've wrote a Portuguese tutorial, and I think I could build a .deb package for an installation out of the box for Lucent/Agere modems, but the problem is exactly time!!!! | 05:12 |
| _ion | and the amount of exclamation points. | 05:13 |
| RenatoSilva | Hobbsee: unfortunately, my contributtions can be only spporadic, little-time tasks, such as this tutorial I've wrote | 05:13 |
| _ion | They probably should go to linux-image or linux-restricted-modules. | 05:13 |
| jdong | yeah, there are a lot of time issues involved. Time it takes to put together a high-quality support for hardware ina a distro, and also the time and dedication it takes for years after to make sure it is kept maintained | 05:13 |
| RenatoSilva | _ion: sorry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | 05:13 |
| RenatoSilva | _ion: :D | 05:13 |
| jdong | it's little good if it's just put in there and the author disappears | 05:13 |

| RenatoSilva | jdong: should exists 'maintainers' | 05:15 |
| jdong | RenatoSilva: code and docs.... | 05:15 |
| jdong | but the question is _who_ are these maintainers? | 05:15 |
| jdong | they do not magically appear out of nowhere | 05:15 |

| RenatoSilva | but... | 05:19 |
| RenatoSilva | next page | 05:19 |
| RenatoSilva | do you know MArtian driver?? | 05:19 |
| jdong | You mean the Lucent/Agere Mars chipset? (1648) | 05:20 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: no, the driver for it | 05:20 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: i think it's easy to package it as a .deb and put it into hardware detection in the install process | 05:21 |
| jdong | ltmodem, right? | 05:21 |
| jdong | linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-12-386: lib/linux-restricted-modules/2.6.20-12-386/ltmodem/ltmodem.mod.o | 05:22 |
| jdong | it seems to be in the -386 kernel | 05:22 |
| RenatoSilva | i forgot, also I'd like to help with gnome-ppp that is still too simple | 05:22 |
| jdong | but not in the -generic kernel | 05:22 |
| jdong | I have no idea why... | 05:22 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: it's an alternative driver | 05:22 |
| ajmitch | jdong: binary-only driver that can't handle SMP, iirc | 05:22 |
| jdong | ajmitch: ah, ok, didn't know that :) | 05:23 |
| ajmitch | there's at least 1 or 2 like that | 05:23 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: is that a thing to verify? | 05:23 |
| jdong | RenatoSilva: no, I am not familiar with that driver... | 05:23 |
| jdong | I have seen ltmodem before | 05:23 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: a moment | 05:23 |
| desrt | what is a "validation bug"? | 05:24 |
| jdong | "It is known that there sometimes are behaviours such as the one which | 05:24 |
| jdong | you observe with ltmodem and smp. Therefore the logical step is to keep | 05:24 |
| jdong | ltmodem and temporarily use the single p (UP) kernel, just to make sure if | 05:24 |
| jdong | the problem is the ltmodem-smp conflict." | 05:24 |
| jdong | but that is dated information | 05:24 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: i don't undertand nothing of what you just said :D | 05:26 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: http://martian.barrelsoutofbond.org/ | 05:26 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: del.icio.us it | 05:26 |
| === dcsmith [n=dcsmith@ool-4351bc6d.dyn.optonline.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| jdong | (alpha) Testing. Volunteers are invited. There's no official release yet. | 05:27 |
| jdong | it seems to be an alpha driver | 05:27 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: i think it's easy to take martian and embed it in the instalaltion | 05:27 |
| jdong | RenatoSilva: if it is shown that martian is more stable or reliable than the existing ltmodem driver, then yes, it could very well go into the kernel | 05:28 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: the martian? sure, but it is working here, except of some strange screws from the device :D | 05:28 |
| jdong | that doesn't sound like a great success report | 05:29 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: so it was useful to tell you about it? will you keep it in mind? | 05:29 |
| jdong | for something you want included as a part of the Ubuntu kernel | 05:29 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: or it's another place i have to go?? | 05:29 |
| jdong | I have no decision making power around here | 05:29 |
| jdong | you should try the mailing list as a way to get more developers involved | 05:29 |
| jdong | and if you can state your findings with the martian driver on the wiki page you linked to, that will help too | 05:30 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: about the screws: was a joking, sometimes when connecting there's strange sounds, but only sometimes, my PC never had frozen because of such driver for example... | 05:30 |
| jdong | still... this is a driver... that inserts itself into the kernel | 05:31 |
| jdong | it needs to be of a certain quality level before it's wise to ship it by default | 05:31 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: anyway the quality may be verified by inspecting the code | 05:32 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: i don't remeber it I've tried ltmodem, I think I had trouble with it, so that I've tried martian | 05:33 |
| jdong | which takes developer resources | 05:33 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: :D | 05:33 |
| jdong | :) | 05:33 |
| jdong | but yes, RenatoSilva, we aren't going to completely forget about winmodem support... | 05:34 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: a question: what's the difference between ltmodem and sl-modem? | 05:34 |
| jdong | RenatoSilva: the situation will naturally get better as these better drivers emerge | 05:34 |
| jdong | RenatoSilva: ltmodem is for the Agere Mars 1648C chipset, while sl-modem is for the SmartLink Intel HDA modems | 05:34 |
| jdong | different chipsets | 05:34 |
| jdong | this of course does not solve the problem with the Conexant HDA HSF modems | 05:35 |
| jdong | by far the most popular modems | 05:35 |
| jdong | for which no half-open drivers exist. | 05:35 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: I hope very much, for all that I've said, that it become true fast | 05:35 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: wow, great | 05:35 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: btw, I guess I remember why i did not used ltmodem!!! | 05:36 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: it's because it's a hard modem driver, right??? or no?? | 05:36 |
| === superm1 [n=superm1@ubuntu/member/superm1] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| jdong | no | 05:36 |
| jdong | it is also a driver for the Mars chipset | 05:37 |
| jdong | martian seems to be a rewrite of it | 05:37 |
| jdong | it also uses the same ltmodem binary blob | 05:37 |
| jdong | just a different 'wrapper' around it | 05:37 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: i would try it to see if it works, but i don't want to have re-work in case of re-installin martian | 05:37 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: does ltmodem is installable by apt? | 05:37 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: wow, i 'm not such a low-level programmer | 05:38 |
| jdong | it is installable by apt, but only on the linux-386 kernel | 05:39 |
| jdong | if you install and boot the -386 kernel, ltmodem should be enabled automatically | 05:39 |
| jdong | that is already in Ubuntu :) | 05:39 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: if someday it would be possible, I think it would be interesting to connect statistics in Brazil and world-wide about the most-used modems, I use Agere here but i'm not sure if it's the most-used | 05:40 |
| jdong | I used to be a dial-up modem guru/fanatic.... | 05:40 |
| jdong | I will tell you off the bat the most popular by far are Conexant HSF/HSP's | 05:41 |
| jdong | today, in the form of Conexant HDA modems | 05:41 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: so that's why the network > modem item did not worked when i first installed my Edgy, because I'm in a Core 2 Duo | 05:41 |
| jdong | second most popular are Agere Mars 1648C | 05:41 |
| jdong | and then it's SmartLink | 05:41 |
| jdong | the order there between 2 and 3 may be flipped | 05:41 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: also in Brazil? | 05:42 |
| jdong | I'd expect so | 05:42 |
| jdong | (the main motivation is that Conexant HDA is dirt cheap) | 05:43 |
| jdong | it's quite literally connecting the telephone wire to two input leads on the sound card :) | 05:43 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: are you a genuine developer of ubuntu right? so let me make a question | 05:48 |
| jdong | no, I am actually not a developer | 05:49 |
| jdong | I actually do, as Hobbsee suggested, hang around and act as one :D | 05:49 |
| jdong | (I have several other responsibilities in the Ubuntu community that keep me well busy) | 05:50 |
| RenatoSilva | here in Brazil we have a grear virtual community called GUJ (.com.br) in which forum we discuss about Java technology, and currently by these days we're talking about the importance of Tests in software (junit.org, unit tests, TDD etc.) | 05:50 |
| Hobbsee | jdong: and being the master of backports.. | 05:50 |
| Hobbsee | jdong: that counts as a developer | 05:50 |
| jdong | :) | 05:50 |
| jdong | ok | 05:50 |
| === jdong puts on Developer badge :d | ||
| RenatoSilva | some were saying that sofwtare without tests are to put in trash | 05:51 |
| jdong | Hobbsee: I promise I'll get a MOTU badge before the summer is over :D | 05:51 |
| bhale | you could get one, if you wanted. | 05:51 |
| jdong | RenatoSilva: a comprehensive yet accurate test suite is indeed a great thing to have for any piece of software | 05:51 |
| Hobbsee | jdong: yay! | 05:51 |
| jdong | bhale: I think I still need to put in some packaging work before I qualify :) | 05:51 |
| RenatoSilva | so I wondered if this culture of Unit Tests, TDD etc. was particular of Java or if it is used in Linux kernel and distros, for example | 05:51 |
| RenatoSilva | does the Linux kernel have Unit Tests????? | 05:52 |
| jdong | RenatoSilva: many kernel developers I'm sure have a regression testing suite... | 05:52 |
| jdong | RenatoSilva: it is very hard to define unit tests for every subsystem of the kernel | 05:52 |
| RenatoSilva | is there something like JUnit for C, such as "CUnit"?? | 05:52 |
| jdong | RenatoSilva: but I know for sure filesystem developers have a very full testing suite | 05:53 |
| bhale | this is drifting further from the topic | 05:53 |
| bhale | google says: http://cutest.sourceforge.net/ | 05:54 |
| RenatoSilva | and Debian too, they test its software for years before release it, which kind of tests they do, I wondered | 05:54 |
| jdong | users test and report bugs, bugs are fixed | 05:54 |
| jdong | the standard way of testing | 05:54 |
| jdong | you can't practically unit test an entire distribution :) | 05:55 |
| jdong | try writing a unit test for burning a DVD :) | 05:55 |
| RenatoSilva | I told them, If tests are so important that you reject non-testable software, then we shoudn't trust in linux kernel, because they haven't tests | 05:55 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: it would be difficult??? | 05:56 |
| jdong | yes | 05:56 |
| bhale | ubuntu releases go through a documented testing plan | 05:56 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: it's strange, in Java we have not this culture of "hey, it's a beta, help us testing it" | 05:57 |
| bhale | can i persuade you to join #ubuntu-offtopic | 05:57 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: we pratically have not "betas", but milestones | 05:57 |
| RenatoSilva | bhale: sorry | 05:57 |
| RenatoSilva | bhale: I'll stop | 05:57 |

| wowow | hey guys | 05:58 |
| wowow | anyone here from the installer team? | 05:58 |
| Hobbsee | wowow: #ubuntu-installer but there's probably no one awake | 05:58 |
| wowow | installing dapper on intel chipset systems is a problem, screen goes all black 3/4'rs of the way through | 05:58 |
| RenatoSilva | bhale: but if was a great information, in offtopic we woudn't find developers (they would ask me what is unit testing :D ) | 05:58 |
| wowow | ah! well i'll try anyway | 05:58 |
| bhale | RenatoSilva: you must understand, it is pretty slow right now.. if we started letting people ask anything, there would be no time to work | 05:59 |
| RenatoSilva | jdong: tahnk you for all information, remember of me, softmodems and Brazil, and good luck with Ubuntu development! Thank you everybody! | 06:00 |
| wowow | well posted there | 06:00 |
| RenatoSilva | bhale: sorry, I finished :D | 06:00 |
| Hobbsee | bhale: exactly. | 06:00 |
| wowow | just in case no one is awake, would anyone have a clue why on intel chipset mobos the dapepr installer goes blank on all terminals 3/4'rs of the way through? or how to fix this problem? | 06:00 |
| wowow | or get around it even? | 06:00 |
| RenatoSilva | thank you everybody, see you later! | 06:01 |
| Hobbsee | wowow: might be better to run edgy/feisty on that, if it's a core duo | 06:01 |
| Hobbsee | or later | 06:01 |
| wowow | can't | 06:01 |
| wowow | this is for work | 06:01 |
| wowow | we can only run lts | 06:01 |
| jdong | wowow: what kind of Intel system? | 06:01 |
| wowow | well two separate systems | 06:02 |
| wowow | this one is an asus z95f with a core duo cpu indeed | 06:02 |
| _ion | wowow: Have you posted a bug report? | 06:02 |
| wowow | the others are an asrock mobo with ... *hmm* with core 2 duos on them | 06:03 |
| wowow | i would but i'm flying out in about 3 hours | 06:03 |
| Hobbsee | wowow: that kernell seems to be a bit old to support the core duo's well - i had the same problem, with graphics | 06:03 |
| wowow | looking for wiggle room, then will post | 06:03 |
| jdong | wowow: please do file a bug report.... | 06:03 |
| wowow | yeah later, i don't have time | 06:03 |
| jdong | sure. | 06:03 |
| wowow | Hobbsee, ah, *hmm* | 06:03 |
| wowow | damnit might not have any choice but to do edgy feisty | 06:04 |
| wowow | *grr* | 06:04 |
| Hobbsee | wowow: unfortunately, yes. feisty should be fairly well supported by now | 06:05 |
| wowow | lots and lots of updates still, kinda shitty to have regular users have a box like that. when is feisty due for release? | 06:06 |
| Hobbsee | 19th | 06:06 |
| Hobbsee | true, but a new kernel has the potential to break a lot of other things. | 06:06 |
| Hobbsee | which is unacceptable for a LTS, obviously | 06:06 |
| RenatoSilva | next wednesday? nice! | 06:06 |
| wowow | ah, *hmm* well maybe we could squeak by | 06:06 |
| wowow | Hobbsee, yeah true, i have a canonical support account but its fior 9x5 | 06:07 |
| wowow | i'll bug them in about a week to see if there is anything that can be backported | 06:07 |
| _ion | There shouldnt be many updates for feisty before release. | 06:07 |
| wowow | maybe not | 06:07 |
| Hobbsee | wowow: you could always upgrade that support if you needed it, too. *shrug* | 06:07 |
| Hobbsee | or make sure you only do the upgrades between 9-5 | 06:07 |
| wowow | not without my bosses cc and not before i fly out | 06:08 |
| Hobbsee | good point | 06:08 |
| wowow | Hobbsee, so you say youve seen this before? | 06:08 |
| wowow | intel chipset too? | 06:08 |
| Hobbsee | wowow: not exactly that - but had heaps of X problems when trying to run dapper on this core duo | 06:09 |
| === RenatoSilva [n=renato@200191177090-dial-user-ECP.acessonet.com.br] has left #ubuntu-devel [] | ||
| wowow | well i actually have like two installs on core duo laptops ... but those installed magically even with this issue | 06:09 |
| jdong | Dapper ran fine on my core duo (centrino) laptop.... but I have too seen many reports of issues | 06:09 |

| wowow | well on the upside, with feisty the power use on the laptop should improve, right? | 06:11 |
| Hobbsee | should do, yes | 06:11 |
| Hobbsee | booting's a lot faster too | 06:11 |
| wowow | cuz this mofo cpu fan is spinning at 100% right now for no reason | 06:11 |
| wowow | heh | 06:11 |
| jdong | performance will also be better on the core duos | 06:11 |
| jdong | and any other shared-cache CPU designs | 06:11 |
| wowow | oh i heard that, so the new bootloader is working wonders eh? | 06:11 |
| wowow | jdong, nifty | 06:12 |
| jdong | lol not really... just optimized boot scripts | 06:12 |
| wowow | so what you guys are saying is take a chance, lots of upside | 06:12 |
| Hobbsee | wowow: yes. | 06:12 |
| jdong | I think Feisty is a good choice :) | 06:12 |
| jdong | once it releases | 06:12 |
| Hobbsee | wowow: particularly if you've got the canonical support anyway | 06:12 |
| wowow | allright, blast it, i was hoping for keeping lts around and doing a company wide upgrade | 06:12 |
| wowow | cool, thx for the input, that clears up a few things | 06:13 |
| Hobbsee | presumably with the next one you could | 06:14 |
| wowow | actually i'm starting to doubt it | 06:15 |
| wowow | chipset and cpu designs evolve so quickly, it's impossible to keep a 2 year old kernel current | 06:15 |
| Hobbsee | wowow: true, but are you going to upgrade all your machines again after this? | 06:15 |
| wowow | not until the next lts is available | 06:16 |
| Hobbsee | ie, it'll still support all the old ones - but will you be adding more that you need the later support for? | 06:16 |
| Hobbsee | sorry, i meant hardware-wise | 06:16 |
| wowow | unfortunately yeah we do every year and in unplanned ways | 06:16 |
| wowow | we run stuff for the gov't so they randomly give us dollars to spend or we loose them | 06:16 |
| wowow | makes planning VERY difficult | 06:16 |
| Hobbsee | ahh | 06:17 |
| wowow | albeit linux still makes it easier than dealing with vista | 06:17 |
| Hobbsee | true | 06:17 |
| Hobbsee | which means you'd have exactly the same problem with any distro, presumably | 06:17 |
| wowow | oh totally | 06:17 |
| wowow | not complaining about ubuntu at all | 06:17 |
| Hobbsee | if you needed the latest kernels each time to support the computers you were buying | 06:17 |
| wowow | just a kink in the deployment strategy i guess | 06:18 |
| Hobbsee | in that case, i'd guess that you'd want to pick a distro which is good at dist-upgrading, and officially supports that | 06:18 |
| wowow | there is only two bro | 06:18 |
| wowow | :) | 06:18 |
| wowow | debian | 06:18 |
| wowow | and debian + (i.e. ubuntu) | 06:18 |
| wowow | :) | 06:18 |
| Hobbsee | ie, it sounds like you're not looking for LTS at all - but a good way to dist-upgrade | 06:18 |
| Burgundavia | wowow: lts --> lts will certain be supported | 06:19 |
| Hobbsee | well, yeah :) | 06:19 |
| Burgundavia | certainly, rather | 06:19 |
| wowow | no i'm really only looking for lts, i'm being forced to alter my assumptions :) | 06:19 |
| === Treenaks will probably be running feisty on his shiny new server | ||
| wowow | *nod* | 06:19 |
| Treenaks | (because of the hardware support thing) | 06:19 |
| Burgundavia | wowow: the next lts will likely be feisty+1 | 06:19 |
| Treenaks | Burgundavia: +1 or +2? | 06:19 |
| Hobbsee | Burgundavia: uh, +2 was the plan | 06:19 |
| wowow | really? | 06:19 |
| Treenaks | (because +2 was the last I heard) | 06:20 |
| Hobbsee | wowow: no. +2. | 06:20 |
| wowow | ah okay | 06:20 |
| Hobbsee | Burgundavia: you've misread the release annoucement or something | 06:20 |
| Burgundavia | Hobbsee: which one? | 06:20 |
| Treenaks | (that means 2 years between LTS) | 06:20 |
| Hobbsee | Burgundavia: the one for gusty | 06:20 |
| Burgundavia | ah | 06:20 |
| wowow | Hobbsee, well thats a good point. i guess using festy now in a limited way isn't too bad considering a 12 month wait | 06:20 |
| jdong | Hobbsee: gushy. | 06:20 |
| Hobbsee | wowow: keep in mind that feisty's still supported - just that it'll only be supported for 18 months. | 06:20 |
| Treenaks | jdong: gusty | 06:21 |
| wowow | Burgundavia, btw, its me holycow | 06:21 |
| wowow | lol | 06:21 |
| wowow | i got your email | 06:21 |
| jdong | Treenaks: no, gushy. gushy giblets... | 06:21 |
| Burgundavia | Hobbsee: you are right, I failed to read the announcement closely | 06:21 |
| Hobbsee | wowow: but by the sound of things, you'd need to upgrade way before that anyway, if you're getting new hardware every year | 06:21 |
| jdong | :) | 06:21 |
| wowow | are you available for a pm a bit? | 06:21 |
| Burgundavia | wowow: excellent | 06:21 |

| Keybuk | morning | 10:23 |
| fabbione | Keybuk: hey dude | 10:23 |
| fabbione | bad news | 10:24 |
| fabbione | root on lvm on raid is still racy.. i have a machine that can boot this one time yes and two no | 10:24 |
| fabbione | i can see the raids are formed properly | 10:24 |
| fabbione | but lvm is not started | 10:25 |
| === fabbione setups access | ||
| === spacey [n=herman@ubuntu/member/spacey] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Keybuk | please investigate yourself, and see what you can find out | 10:26 |
| === _ion investigates himself. Will report. | ||
| fabbione | _ion: use at least 2 raids in the setup | 10:26 |
| Keybuk | fabbione: you have the fixes for the mdadm race installed, I assume? | 10:26 |
| Keybuk | raid definitely did used to be racy | 10:27 |
| fabbione | Keybuk: fresh install as this morning | 10:27 |
| fabbione | _ion: one raid1 for /boot, one raid1 for lvm -> lvm with 2 lv -> root and swap | 10:27 |
| fabbione | but i am sure it's just yet another race somewhere | 10:27 |
| fabbione | so you might not see at all | 10:27 |
| Keybuk | in theory, there shouldn't be any races | 10:28 |
| Keybuk | since lvm is called when the mdadm is assembled | 10:28 |
| Keybuk | it could be something like lvm locking out | 10:28 |
| Keybuk | and failing rather than waiting | 10:28 |
| _ion | fabbione: Sorry, i was only joking. I interpreted the investigate yourself part literally. :-) | 10:28 |

| tepsipakki | does anyone know what is the status of UDS sponsorship? | 10:28 |
| fabbione | Keybuk: it's possible... it's possible that we need to use the same trick to check the raid status before attempting to enable lvm | 10:29 |
| Keybuk | we don't have a trick to check the raid status ... | 10:29 |
| Keybuk | in theory, we should just be able to call lvm repeatedly until it works; likewise with mdadm | 10:29 |
| fabbione | we added that call to mdadm --$cantremember | 10:30 |
| Keybuk | no we didn't | 10:30 |
| Keybuk | we added a call to vol_id | 10:30 |
| fabbione | oh right.. yeah | 10:31 |
| Keybuk | since that works for all volume types | 10:31 |
| Keybuk | are there any useful messages on the screen? | 10:31 |
| fabbione | nope | 10:31 |
| Keybuk | or does it just hit the "try to mount the root disk" without it being there? | 10:31 |
| fabbione | checking slowly.. step by step | 10:31 |
| Keybuk | is there a three minute timeout? | 10:32 |
| fabbione | yes | 10:32 |
| fabbione | the timeout is there and i get dropped to busybox | 10:32 |
| fabbione | that's where i can see raids are up but lvm isn't | 10:32 |
| fabbione | problem is that it doesn't happen always | 10:32 |
| fabbione | so it takes a few reboots to trigger stuff | 10:33 |
| fabbione | ah there.. reproduced | 10:34 |
| fabbione | no errors.. raids are started fine.. lvm isn't | 10:34 |
| Keybuk | ok, interesting | 10:34 |
| fabbione | waiting to be dropped to busybox | 10:34 |
| Keybuk | the fact you hit the timeout is useful | 10:34 |
| Keybuk | that means that we're not mistakenly believing the root filesystem is ready | 10:34 |
| Keybuk | (which was the mdadm and lilo problems | 10:34 |
| fabbione | yeah if i do manually lvm vgchange -a y and ctrl+d it's all good | 10:34 |
| Keybuk | the problem is that vgchange isn't working | 10:34 |
| fabbione | seems like sometimes it does... | 10:35 |
| === fabbione wonders | ||
| Keybuk | SUBSYSTEM=="block", ACTION=="add|change", ENV{ID_FS_TYPE}=="lvm*|LVM*", RUN+="wa | 10:35 |
| Keybuk | tershed sh -c '/sbin/lvm vgscan; /sbin/lvm vgchange -a y'" | 10:35 |
| Keybuk | -- | 10:35 |
| Keybuk | so there's a few possibilities | 10:35 |
| Keybuk | 1) the add/change event isn't getting emitted when the md is assembled (probably false) | 10:35 |
| Keybuk | 2) vol_id on the md is failing (probably also false) | 10:36 |
| Keybuk | 3) vol_id is working, but not detecting an LVM volume group (this would fail every time) | 10:36 |
| Keybuk | 4) either vgscan or vgchange aren't picking up the new PV | 10:36 |
| fabbione | it's not 3) (just checked) | 10:37 |
| fabbione | (initramfs) /lib/udev/vol_id /dev/md1 | 10:37 |
| fabbione | ID_FS_USAGE=raid | 10:37 |
| fabbione | ID_FS_TYPE=LVM2_member | 10:37 |
| fabbione | ID_FS_VERSION=LVM2 001 | 10:37 |
| fabbione | it's also good for the other raid | 10:37 |
| fabbione | if 1 is true, in theory the machine would never boot | 10:38 |
| fabbione | but it does once in a while | 10:38 |

| Mithrandir | fabbione: so http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~ijackson/d/t makes it all happy for you? | 01:33 |
| fabbione | Mithrandir: yes. of course that requires a few extra changes.. like 65-persistent-rules changes and installing the script in initramfs | 01:33 |
| Mithrandir | ok, but this can be worked around from the command line, or just fixed by retrying the boot a few times? | 01:34 |
| fabbione | it can be worked around from cmdline for me | 01:34 |
| fabbione | i have to issue a lvm vgchange -a y manually | 01:34 |
| iwj | Mithrandir: I was referring to Keybuk's insane repeated udevtrigger idea. | 01:34 |
| fabbione | and it works | 01:34 |
| fabbione | last test with udevtrigger then i need to grab some food. | 01:35 |
| Mithrandir | fabbione: ok, then I think we should put something about it into "known issues" and put something into -updates to fix this. | 01:35 |

| iwj | Almost every bug in this area only happens if you lose some race. | 02:10 |
| Nafallo | and it haven't happened to the other /dev/md1 on the same disk with no LVM... | 02:11 |
| iwj | If my guess is right then it's a kernel bug and it's far from clear how it might be even worked around. | 02:11 |
| iwj | Races happen sometimes. It's what they do. | 02:11 |
| Nafallo | also, sometimes I have to kill it once and sometimes twice... | 02:11 |

| jsgotangco | asac: why should it, a person running ubuntu server is supposed to know how to configure it in the first place right | 05:57 |

| habeeb | I mean.. it seems like such an easy thing to develop and I bet that it would really help Window to Linux switching. | 06:39 |
| cjwatson | err ... there is? | 06:39 |
| cjwatson | "Resize <Windows partition> and use freed space" | 06:39 |

| === TomaszD_ [n=tom@unaffiliated/tomaszd] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| cjwatson | e.g. if you have too many primary partitions already, or not enough free space on a resizable partition, then auto-resize won't be offered | 06:41 |
| habeeb | I see. | 06:41 |
| cjwatson | pre-feisty, if you had more than a couple of GB of free disk space, it wouldn't be offered either; in feisty I decided that that was a mistake and removed that check | 06:41 |

| habeeb | I see... | 06:46 |
| habeeb | No well, I'm saying that, because last time I used Ubuntu was in the start of the Edgy era, and I remember many many threads on the forums of people unable to setup DRI and their card correctly, and I'm wondering if the problem is fixed. | 06:46 |

| cjwatson | Arby: sure, though as I said it looks like your problem is due to running out of memory and that's not his prroblem | 11:14 |
