persiaandresmujica: I've set it wishlist.  There's a bit more needs doing: it needs a package and a status.  To determine the package, I suggest you look at the proposed solution - `dpkg -S $(which tc)` should give you a package name.  To determine a status, you'll want to try to determine if you can also see the issue, and perhaps set to confirmed.02:15

bluefoxicypersia:  http://rafb.net/p/ORSts774.html02:49
persiabluefoxicy: Ah.  And you wrote a script that presented some results, and would like to have a firefox developer look at the output?02:49
bluefoxicyTells you how much memory gets used by writable, read-only, executable, and zero-permissions (WTF?!) mappings.02:50
bluefoxicypersia:  no, well maybe.  More I'm not sure if anyone wants it for checking out why-the-%@#*&-does-this-app-leak-memory bugs in general.02:50
bluefoxicyIf I don't ask, it's going to rot on my hard drive.02:50
persiabluefoxicy: That's a more interesting question.  Most people seem to put useful scripts online, and send email to a discussion list.02:52
persiabluefoxicy: For the firefox issue, if you found an interesting result that could be a bug, you'd want to file a bug.02:52
bluefoxicypersia:  most interesting result I found is what looks like 100 megs of non-permissioned anonymous mappings ;|02:53
* bluefoxicy modifies the script to output the range the mappings fall in so they can be identified in /proc/pid/maps02:53

charIiethe popping sound is about 10 pops in a row and occurs quite frequently04:18
charIiebegan with feisty04:19
charIieand now im using gutsy04:19
persiacharIie: Depends on the cause, and the source.  Is it part of the audio signal, or generated by the hardware?04:19
charIieit is not the hardware because  my mp3 player and windows have no problems04:19
charIiealso if i turn the volume up louder i get a consistent fuzzy sound04:20
charIiei have a Santa Cruz sound card and use ALSA04:21
charIiethe speakers are logitech 5.104:21
persiacharIie: Is the popping related to running any specific applications?04:21
charIieno it is not related to any specific application04:22
charIiepossibly pidgin04:22
charIiebut i remember hearing it without pidgin running04:22

charIienot sure exactly i just remember seeing it04:25
charIiebut everything slows to a grinding halt04:26
persiaAh.  Perhaps your hardware isn't accelerating properly.  You might try turning off the desktop effects until the bug is resolved.  I would recommend finding the bug and subscribing, so you can see if anyone has a better workaround, and any progesss made by the developers.04:27

persiakhermansen: I'm not sure how you got to that state, but you can usually force things by calling aptitude dist-upgrade to track everything.  You can also try running dpkg --configure for each of the many applications untiul you find a few that work.  I'd start with the libraries.08:43
khermansenpersia, i tried dist-upgrade but that dies due to dpkg telling to configure08:43
khermansenif i delete some of the package.post* scripts, they install fine08:44
khermansenand dpkg does not complain08:44
persiakhermansen: Hrm.  Something must have been configure-pending prior to the upgrade.  I'll still recommend trying to manually configure things.08:44
khermansenit is really fscked though08:44
khermansenpersia, what is the proepr procedure?08:44
khermansenproper08:44
persiaWhich package.postinst needed to be deleted?  Ming you, not running postinst can cause all sorts of issues.08:44
khermansenthe first one in the list was dash08:44
khermanseni deleted it, and now there is another one08:45
khermansenit is an infinite loop08:45
khermansendoesnt matter if i delete the next package either08:45
persiaAh.  Yes.  Deleting those scripts will break your system.  If you've installed some after deleting the scripts, I really don't know how you might recover.08:45
khermanseni got to this state by do-release-upgrade, which failed08:45
khermansenthen i manually ran dist-upgrade08:46
khermansenediting sources.list first08:46
persiaHow did do-release-upgrade fail?08:46
khermansenpersia, thats ridiculous08:46
khermansenpersia, it didnt like mediabuntu repos08:46
khermansenwhich i never use, but this user had installed08:46
persiaHmmm...  There might be an issue with do-release-upgrade.  Still, it shouldn't leave anything in a half-installed state.08:47
khermansenyeah, i dond think it got to even upgrading08:47
khermansenit modified the sources.list and then failed08:47
khermansendidnt get very far08:47
khermansenmaybe i am mistaken08:47
khermansenpersia, does it drop a log somewhere?08:48
persiakhermansen: Well, there's /var/log/dpkg.log, but I'm not sure if the contents will be ideal.08:48
khermansenpersia, dpkg log is very revealing08:49
persiakhermansen: That's good news.  The contents were always unhelpful to me :)08:49
khermansena lot of stuff was half-installed prior to upgrading08:49
khermansenand half-configured08:50
persiaAlso, I'd suggest that you try to restore the *.postinst files that were deleted.  They should be run.08:50
khermansendoes this mean just that there was an option that required input and none was given?08:50
persiaAh.  If lots of stuff was half-installed or half-configured, then that's the cause.08:50
khermansenpersia, how would i do that?08:50
khermansenpersia, and how to recover?08:50
persiakhermansen: If you know what you deleted (history might help), you can get individual files with `aptitude download packagename`, `dpkg -c packagename directoryname` and diggging around in directoryname.08:51
khermansenoh boy...08:52

khermanseni think all i did was dash08:52
khermansenso i can just reinstall after i get everything else done08:52
persiaI'd suggest resetting the repositories to the previous release, and fighting with dpkg --configure -a to get the system into a sane state prior to trying the upgrade.08:52
persiaRight.  Are you sure it wouldn't be easier to just back up the data and reinstall?  This system sounds like it was broken before you got to it.08:53
khermansenpersia, btw i am a boston native :-)  wish i could make it to UDS, but I moved to san francisco08:53
khermansenpersia, it is my father's08:53
khermanseni am doing this remote :-)08:53
persiaHrm.  That makes it tricky.  I'd stick with trying to get it back to feisty, making it sane, and then trying an upgrade.08:54
khermansenpersia, problem is apt will prefer the higher versions pof software that were just installed08:55
khermansenno?08:55
khermansenand dpkg is still fskced08:55
persiakhermansen: RIght.  Umm.  You could get the list of installed software (dpkg -l), and download all the feisty versions, and install them.  I'd script that, as it would be exceedingly painful manually.08:56
khermansenthat sucks08:56

khermansengnomefreak, package libc6 is not ready for configuration09:16
khermansenhalf-installed09:16
gnomefreakkhermansen: im guessing you didnt use update-manager like the docs tell you to?09:16
khermansengnomefreak, hwo would i do that without a gui chief?09:16
gnomefreakkhermansen: i didnt see you say anything about not having one09:17
khermansen:-)09:17
khermansenupgrades should not be dependent on a GUI, and if they are, something is fscked09:17
gnomefreakkhermansen: they arnt but update-manager takes care to install packages in order and has some flags for unofficial packages like nvidia installed from envy and beryl/compiz unofficial (when it was) and fixes most common issues where we cant have apt do that09:19
khermansengnomefreak, thats unfortunate09:19
khermansenit should be handled on something more low-level09:19
gnomefreakupdate-manager is more for the new users to linux/ubuntu not so much for server installs09:20
gnomefreakserver installs dont have the packages or package depends that the desktop install has09:20
khermansengnomefreak, either way, my upgrade did not go well09:21
khermansengnomefreak, and thats ridiculous!09:21
khermansenwhat i need right now is an apt/dpkg ninja09:22
gnomefreakkhermansen: depends on  your system what packages you have and so on. not all systems will upgrade perfectly09:22
khermansensomeone who has done this a hundred times09:22
gnomefreakkhermansen: hes sleeping09:22
khermansenwhich one?09:22

gnomefreakthere are a few ways to try and fix this easiest first09:27
gnomefreakkhermansen: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade if it fails sudo apt-get -f install09:27
gnomefreakkhermansen: why dont you have GUI?09:28
khermansengnomefreak, dude again, dpkg is broken09:28
gnomefreakkhermansen: run the commands09:28
* gnomefreak sees GUI apps in your error09:29
khermansengnomefreak, i dont have gui because it is a remote ssh connection, i could forward X, but it is not the point09:29
khermansenthe point is i shouldnt have to use gui09:29
khermansenlike if this was a server, i would be pissed09:29
gnomefreakkhermansen: ok let me know what apt-get -f install output if dist-upgrade doesnt download  packages09:29
khermansengnomefreak, i cant now, my father shut down the machine and is going to bed09:30
gnomefreakok09:30
khermansenbest solution for me is just to have him reinstall base from get-selections09:30
khermansennot worth trying to fix...09:30
khermansenthanks anyways09:31
gnomefreakkhermansen: if that doesnt work you need to read or post the /var/log/dist-upgrade files as they will tells us where it fails and what failed but i still think installing updated dpkg will work09:31
khermanseni alredy dide09:31
khermansengnomefreak, dude updating dpkg failed due to broken libc609:31
gnomefreakkhermansen: again its fixible09:32
khermansengnomefreak, everything is fixable if you have the time09:32
khermansenunfortunately my time is worth too much09:32
gnomefreakkhermansen: dont need a bunch of time need full errors09:32
gnomefreakand your post doesnt have the files needed to diagnose the issue properly and quickly09:33
khermansengnomefreak, which files?09:33
gnomefreakkhermansen: the 3 files in /var/log/dist-upgrade09:34
khermanseni already added them dude09:34
khermansencheck again09:34
gnomefreakkhermansen: i dont see them on the bug09:34
khermansenhit refresh :-)09:34
gnomefreakwas on the comment persia gave me09:35
khermansengnomefreak, well anywasy, thanks for trying09:36
gnomefreakseems to be caused by the packages in the backports repo09:37

blueyedIntuitiveNipple: two notes however: 1. you do not need to nominate it for hardy (it's the development version)21:53
blueyedIntuitiveNipple: 2. You should not set it to "Fix committed" (which means that it's e.g. in gutsy-proposed). A patch attached to the bug is not fix committed.21:53
IntuitiveNippleblueyed: Okay... the SRU wiki page isn't exactly clear on that but I did wonder since there was no option to nominate on the other patch I posted today.21:54
crimsun_"Fix committed" implies that there's an existing fix that has already been applied /somewhere/21:54
crimsun_the presence of a patch is necessary but not sufficient21:54
IntuitiveNippleahhh.... I do wish the various instructions were brought together in a wimple workflow diagram! I'm currently modelling the complete workflow in Dia so I have it clear :)21:54

blueyedIntuitiveNipple: it's not in progress anymore, if you've attached the (final) patch. Also, you should de-assign yourself and subscribe ubuntu-universe-sponsors/ubuntu-main-sponsors (the latter has been done)21:58

blueyedYes, they will accept your nomination for gutsy (or reject it).22:00
blueyedIt should be Confirmed and de-assigned (else nobody will pick it up probably)22:00

IntuitiveNippleI'm tracking the nuances like, LTS releases only get security updates but others get backports sometimes. current-release (even an LTS) gets -proposed as far as I can tell23:52
blueyedyes, for "current" and "supported". "backports" is another thing: there packages from development/later get uploaded to the according -backports repos.23:52
IntuitiveNippleI think I'll take a break from it my head is in a spin :)23:52
blueyedLTS can also have backports AFAIK. -proposed is staging/testing for -updates. For -security there's no testing/staging.23:53
