[00:01] Amaranth: well right now 90% of the bootup is bound by readahead and udevtrigger (i.e. modprobe, initramfs) [00:02] Amaranth: the actual sequence starting from root remounted rw to GDM is like less than 5s with upstart :D [00:02] jdong: so with my non-slow HD this should be like 10 seconds or less from grub to gdm [00:02] seeing how i get over 40MB/s in hdparm [00:02] Amaranth: yeah, I bet you can get close to that [00:03] Amaranth: and I think by not having udevtrigger block until gdm, I can get things even faster :) [00:03] well if you're topping out at 12MB/s and getting 15 seconds from grub to gdm i'm sure i can go a bit faster :) [00:03] Amaranth: i.e. I'll need to go grab upstart trunk with multiple conditional support for start [00:04] with the kind of reads done at boot i should be able to get over 20MB/s [00:04] Amaranth: my ext3 root is pretty thrashed too in terms of abuse, upgrading, filling to capacity, etc [00:04] Amaranth: if I just re-populate it with the same files I bet I can lower the boot time even more :D [00:04] don't we have a defragmenter for ext3 yet? [00:04] Amaranth: I can hear the disk thrashing heavily as soon as readahead is done till the end of bootup [00:05] Amaranth: I don't know if I trust e2defrag all that much. I'll gove it a shot some time [00:15] anyone familiar with FloodBotES in -es ? [00:16] nalioth: yes [00:16] nalioth: ask roasoax in -irc [00:16] roaksoax [00:17] it's fixing to be klined [00:17] it's phishing for users passwords [00:18] nalioth, i think not on purpose. anyway the guy speaks english fine [00:24] jpatrick: apparently the nick is unregged. no idea. [00:35] Amaranth: http://jdong.mit.edu/~jdong/macbook/depchart/dep.png [00:35] jdong: surprisingly shallow [00:35] Amaranth: which is a good sign [00:35] yes, it means it can be run highly parallel :) [00:36] Amaranth: the parallelism from checkfs out is encouraging [00:36] crackwifi? [00:37] it gets a bit screwy at the end there [00:37] Amaranth: it's my madwifi compile-at-startup thing [00:37] dbus->hal->usplash->gdm->acpi_support->laptop_mode->rc_local [00:37] Amaranth: named so because originally it hosted a very heavily patched madwifi for (cough) various purposes [00:38] Amaranth: well yeah I got lazy writing near the end :D [00:38] gotta be a bug in whatever you're using to generate this chart :P [00:38] ah, human power [00:38] Amaranth: I didn't think through all the dependencies [00:38] always a bug there [00:38] Jordan_U called the ops in #ubuntu () [00:38] Amaranth: http://jdong.mit.edu/~jdong/macbook/depchart/depchart.py that generates the chart [00:38] Amaranth: call it with the location to event.d :) [00:38] @btlogin [00:38] and it outputs a dotfile [00:39] interesting [00:39] let me know when you're "done", i wanna try this :) [00:40] i can add nvidia stuff myself and i don't need usplash for a 10 second boot :P [00:42] Amaranth: :D well one other person has tested my event.d.tar.gz and says it worked out of the box [00:42] and he had nvidia stuff too (yikes) [00:43] yeah, i thought lrm-video handled nvidia honestly [00:43] and X will load the module if it exists, no need to do it on boot [00:45] jdong: so do you have an updated version or is the one you gave me earlier still right? [01:01] Amaranth: the one I gave earlier is stilll the same [01:01] Amaranth: for comic relief: http://jdong.mit.edu/~jdong/macbook/depchart/sysv-dep.png [01:01] uh, hahahaha [01:01] Amaranth: a bit apples to oranges though, this was not generated on the same machine :D [01:01] but you get the picture [01:02] yeah [01:02] * jdong goes to generate it on the right machine for kicks [01:02] alright, going to go try this [01:03] * Amaranth gets scared [01:03] lol back up event.d first of course :D [01:03] brb (i hope) [01:09] uh oh, he's not back yet [01:11] jdong: so usplash was doing it's pulse thing when initramfs is running then it switched to a tty then X started about a second later [01:11] i'm guessing that's good? [01:11] but i got no output from bootchart [01:12] Amaranth: LOL [01:12] Amaranth: are you serious?! [01:12] yes [01:12] Amaranth: I don't believe you [01:12] Amaranth: you make me cry [01:12] although wallblock numbers say my boot took ~20 seconds to get to gdm [01:12] Amaranth: sweet [01:12] so i'm guessing i need to regenerate my readahead list [01:12] wallclock* [01:12] Amaranth: I'm not sure if the event.d I posted contains bootchart stop [01:12] oh :P [01:12] Amaranth: lol maybe I should generate an updated one :D [01:13] where should that go? [01:13] Amaranth: and I forgot S99rmnologin too so don't expect sshd to work by default :) [01:13] yeah, and i'm guessing i'll have to add my own entries for ipmasq and dhcp3-server :P [01:13] Amaranth: event.d, add a hook to call "/etc/init.d/stop-bootchart start" [01:13] my laptop shares its connection with the desktop next to me [01:13] Amaranth: as an example, look at how, say, gdm's wrapper in event.d was written [01:14] Amaranth: I'd say "start on started rc.local" would be an appropriate boot order for it [01:14] so if usplash was started sooner would it do something useful? [01:14] Amaranth: I'm not sure how usplash progress updates work :) [01:14] Amaranth: but starting usplash actually stops it :) [01:15] the init scripts have commands they use for LSB-compliant output that usplash hooks into [01:15] should stop-bootchart really be a service? [01:16] Amaranth: probably not :) [01:16] Amaranth: hmm my upstart jobs simply trigger init.d scripts one by one [01:16] Amaranth: so I'm probably bypassing whatever logic is used to update the progress bar? [01:16] no, it is stuff inside the initscripts that update that iirc [01:17] Amaranth: hmmm, then they should update :-/ [01:17] wow calling stop-bootchart now was a bad idea [01:17] it's doing...something [01:17] Amaranth: did it generate a 500 second bootup? :D [01:17] it is still doing something [01:18] Amaranth: on the bright side it profiled your login sequence. [01:18] LOL [01:18] yay rsvg-convert 100% CPU [01:18] i hate you :P [01:18] i suppose the stuff to regenerate the readahead list won't work either [01:18] Amaranth: actually, same gotcha, I didn't put in the stop hook [01:18] bootlogd? [01:19] Amaranth: profile actually does work, and does hang boot in the right spot to prepare [01:19] Amaranth: but you need to sudo killall readahead-watch before logging in. [01:19] Amaranth: or while your'e at it, you can write a stop-readahead hook before stop-bootchart :) [01:19] and then it all works fine? :) [01:19] Amaranth: yup, I even used it today to regenerate readahead [01:19] stop-bootchart is still at it [01:20] Amaranth: lol I'm guessing bootchart was never designed to monitor so much :D [01:20] Amaranth: you can now even profile how long it took xchat to start! [01:20] yeah i'm guessing it takes awhile to convert a 10MB svg file to png [01:21] :) [01:21] it looks like it sat doing absolutely nothing for 10 seconds [01:21] usplash timeout or something? [01:22] so gdm didn't start until 25 seconds in [01:23] Amaranth: perhaps turn usplash off? [01:23] maybe [01:23] what's the bit to add to regenerate readahead? [01:24] Amaranth: profile [01:24] alright, back in a bit [01:35] jdong: so it still stalls for 10 seconds but then again it might have done that before too [01:35] boot was so slow before i didn't pay attention when it was booting [01:35] but even with that 10 second stall i've got 31 seconds to boot [01:35] Amaranth: not bad... I guess now the task is figuring out why it stals [01:36] max disk throughput: 47MB/s [01:36] Amaranth: HOLY CRAP! [01:36] i know, this is a laptop [01:36] I'm not talking to you anymore. [01:36] * jdong goes cry in his corner [01:37] i've seen SSDs get much worse scores for boots [01:38] i gotta get me wunna them supersonic dingleberries [01:38] jdong: http://www.realistanew.com/random/hardy-20080317-3.png [01:38] Amaranth: whoa, you spend 10s in initramfs [01:38] oh, that's what that is? [01:39] i wonder why [01:39] how long do you spend in initramfs? [01:39] Amaranth: http://jdong.mit.edu/~jdong/macbook/hardy-upstart-defragged.png [01:39] less than 5s [01:39] damn [01:39] you did defrag? [01:39] Amaranth: not really. [01:40] Amaranth: though defrag only affects that readahead-list band [01:40] Amaranth: your biggest problem is that band before root gets mounted [01:43] yeah, gotta figure that one out [01:43] i'd like a 21s boot [01:43] probably lower if i defragged [01:49] Amaranth: should be entirely possible under your specs [01:49] yeah, i'll play again tomorrow [01:49] gotta go now [01:50] Amaranth: ok, one suggestion before you leave, modify all the udev stuff to start concurrently with readahead [01:50] (i.e. start on starting readahead) [01:50] it seems like parallelizing that in your case would result in a speedup [01:58] HardyOne called the ops in #ubuntu+1 () [02:44] When I try to send msgs in #ubuntu, it says: "#ubuntu :Cannot send to channel". How long does this "ban" last, im pretty sure its been at least 14 hours since it was initiated? [02:47] When I try to send msgs in #ubuntu, it says: "#ubuntu :Cannot send to channel". How long does this "ban" last, im pretty sure its been at least 14 hours since it was initiated? [02:49] ronandi: let me see [02:51] ronandi: uhm, i assume that was an accidental paste? [02:51] yeah [02:52] you mean the double msg yeah [02:52] accidently disconnected and then did that [02:52] well no [02:52] you pasted a lot of lines about "Bob" [02:52] huh [02:52] oo [02:52] before [02:52] yeh [02:52] that is why you were muted [02:53] copy and pasted from gaim by accident [02:53] ronandi: ok, mute removed, careful with that middle mouse button :P [02:53] ronandi: oh come on. [02:53] mneptok: ...no? [02:54] ronandi: your last line before you were banned - "2008-03-17T03:10:13 I had to share lol" [02:54] LjL: thanks. mneptok: huh? [02:54] well after it [02:54] ah uuuh [02:54] I tried to let it go [02:54] not get flamed [02:54] ronandi: it wasn't an accident. that's OK, we all make mistakes. but don;t lie about it. :) [02:54] lol... #db flames and bans instantly [02:55] thx for unmute [02:55] ronandi: i personally don't see a problem with the ban being removed, as long as you know that pasting stuff like that is not welcome. [02:56] if I didnt contact you guys though, would it have gone away after some time? [02:56] Not automatically. [02:56] was a mute, so probably after some days yes [02:56] oh [02:56] ronandi, please check out this information on what is [not] acceptable in #ubuntu, so we have no "mistakes" next time [02:56] !etiquette > ronandi (ronandi, see the private message from Ubotu) [02:57] kk [02:58] naq arire fnl "xx" ntnva sbe tbbqarff fnxr [03:05] uh, what? [03:05] tonyyarusso: rot13 [03:05] oh [03:06] ronandi, if you have no other questions for us, i should ask you to part this channel please [03:09] * mneptok hugs regurg [03:59] Hello? [03:59] hi there! [03:59] Hi Hobbsee [04:00] Hey emma [04:01] Hi tony [04:01] heads up on dashua [04:01] * Hobbsee +q'd in +1 [04:07] emma: the final set of conditions is at http://hobbsee.com/ubotu/emma_conditions [04:10] I've already spoken to PriceChild and others at various stages when the channel was made and I was told that it would not be a reason that I would be banned from #ubuntu channels. [04:11] except for the fact that it became an ops slagging ground, a lot of the time. [04:11] if it had *not* become that, then people would not be requiring you to change the name, i expect. [04:12] Some times this channel has been an emma slagging ground. I don't hold you all accountable for that. [04:12] emma: as you'll note, that's also part of the conditions - that that stops. [04:13] Then I can agree to a condition that says I do not 'slag the ops' in that channel, and that I recommend others do not. That I discourage animosity to the ops in that channel is reasonable. [04:15] the conditions are laid out. take them or leave them. [04:15] they've been extensively thought through. [04:15] In all fairness the conditions are very harsh. Talking about k-lining me? When the reason I'm in here is because of a conversation where I mentioned a real corporation that really is doing the things I said they are doing, in a conversation with an op in -offtopic? [04:16] you would be klined for spam for unsolicited queries regardless of which channels you were in on the freenode network. it's a condition of freenode's network. [04:16] also talking about banning me from other ubuntu channels when I've never done anything wrong in #ubuntu? [04:17] whether you agree to this or not, that condition would still stand anyway. [04:17] then take that all out of your 'conditions' [04:17] that kind of speech just feels like intimidation [04:17] They would apply, and thus should be there. It is a package deal. [04:17] especially since I don't spam anyone and putting that in there feels like an accusation that I have or some kind of acknowledgment that I have. [04:19] Emma will not mention logging, irseek, or anything of that nature in #*ubuntu* channels again [04:19] That's also not a fair condition [04:19] to put that so black and white. There are probably many times in some channels where that is appropriate. [04:20] I would like this to be posted in here. [04:20] What you are asking from me [04:20] so that it's logged? [04:21] This is what they are telling me: [04:21] Conditions list, as agreed upon by the IRC Council and Hobbsee: [04:21] * Ban lifted in -offtopic and -ops [04:21] * Emma apologizes to the irc ops team [04:21] * Emma complies with the rules [04:21] * Ops would not make public comments which slander, or are derogatory about emma, in public channels. [04:21] * Emma will not make public comments which slander, or are derogatory about the ops, in public channels. [04:21] * Emma will not mention logging, irseek, or anything of that nature in #*ubuntu* channels again [04:21] * Emma will not advertise the existence of her channels, (including ##ubuntu-uncensored, whatever it's renamed to, and ##linux+) in #*ubuntu* channels. [04:21] !pastebin [04:21] pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) [04:21] * ##ubuntu-uncensored changes name to be something that does not contain the word 'ubuntu' in it. The irc ops would like to note that while this is not against freenode policy (due to the ##), the irc ops feel that the channel has been harmful to the ubuntu community, and therefore request the name change, as a condition to participating freely in the official ubuntu channels. [04:21] * ##ubuntu-uncensored may forward to a new channel for two weeks to allow users to adjust, and then will be locked by nalioth, a freenode staffer. [04:21] tonyyarusso: that'll change too [04:21] * Emma will not attempt to find loopholes in these conditions, and exploit them. [04:21] * Emma will not send unsolicited private messages to members of #*ubuntu* channels. (this is covered in freenode policy, and is a klineable offense. If such reports reach the irc ops team, the irc ops team are obliged to report them to freenode staff. [04:21] * irc ops team will respect Emma's right to have her own channel when it does not suggest Ubuntu affiliation. [04:21] If Emma breaks these rules, she will be banned from all #*ubuntu* based channels (or klined, in the case of spam, in accordance with Freenode policy) [04:21] I'm sorry I didn't know there was one for here. [04:21] nvm, Hobbsee has a point anyway. Carry on. [04:22] tonyyarusso: it's a valid request, yes, as this log won't be tampered with, whereas an external source can. [04:22] right [04:22] (so ignore the flood part) [04:22] And I want some of these other ops to see this. I want to speak to PriceChild [04:23] he's in norway. but he is connected. [04:23] if you like, you can wait till he comes back, or sees irc, have him input, and then agree after that. [04:23] of course, that will mean that the current quiet in -offtopic stands, and won't be changed. [04:23] I think that some of you would like the name of my channel changed. [04:23] I understand that. [04:24] I am in a business in my professional life where negotiating is part of my job. [04:24] You are putting down a list of conditions that in some ways are non-starters and showing no indication of any flexibility on any of it? [04:25] I want to be able to give you what you want. And things like the channel name changing are possibilities that should not be removed from the table. [04:25] But when you push so hard that you leave no room at all then that is counter productive for both of us. [04:25] you gave me a list of what you would find acceptable. they were based off that. [04:26] it's actually *more* fair than it was originally. [04:26] A revised list of conditions would be a really good idea and a very good sign of good faith, and then after we re-established a good report then we could very well talk about the other things that you want. [04:26] to some degree, you have lost the room to negotiate, due to past actions. [04:26] This is the revised list. As stated, they are take it or leave it. [04:27] I am a partner that can be worked with. But you must know by now that I respond to the perception of being forced with extra-resolve. [04:27] But what about what you want? [04:27] you're not being forced. you have a choice to take it as given, or to leave it. [04:27] we're not forcing you to take it. [04:27] nor are we particularly saying that you should. [04:28] Some of those things in there are not fair or reasonable. And elkbuntu is already on this log saying she is in favor of me having voice back. [04:28] Hobbsee you are on this log saying that you think my appeal is good. [04:28] just that these are the conditions, if you do decide that you do want to be able to talk in -offtopic [04:28] emma: elkbuntu and i both had a lot of input into those conditions. [04:28] She said in here that she is okay with me having voice. [04:28] IF you agree to these. [04:29] She did not say that to me. [04:29] That is not what she said on this log. [04:29] You said that your conditions are based on what I said to you in pm HObbsee [04:29] Then feel free to wait for her to get home from work and clarify for you. [04:29] I am willing to agree to what I said to you in PM [04:29] i took what you said to the ops, and they decided that it was not enough. [04:29] The other stuff was brought up as an afterthought by tonyyarusso after you asked me to come in here. [04:30] as it is, i suggest you wait a while, think on it, wait for elkbuntu, (and wait for PriceChild if you wish), before giving your opinion. [04:31] I am not going to change the name of the channel as long as I feel I am being strong armed. [04:31] then you will nto be able to speak in #ubuntu-offtopic. [04:32] i'ts your choice. [04:35] Can I reasonably expect that as long as I abide by the rules as they apply to everyone else, there will be no further punitive measures taken against me, such as banning me from #ubuntu-women, or #ubuntu ? [04:36] that would be fair, yes. [04:38] wait ... [04:38] there is some behavior we would tolerate from others, but not you. [04:38] e.g. discussion of IRSeek [04:39] e.g. long conversations about policy changes in public channels [04:39] sadly, your past behavior has led to having to place limits on your future behavior. [04:40] mneptok: in #ubuntu and such, that would class as -offtopic [04:40] so, "the rules as they apply to everyone else" is not accurate [04:40] mneptok: #u-w would probably aslo use !o4o as well, i expect. [04:40] mneptok: which includes propaganda [04:40] Hobbsee: as you know, i know nothing of #u-w [04:41] mneptok: i'm fiarly sure they do. [04:41] mneptok: afaik, they don't do politics, etc. [04:42] mneptok: anything support based, she'll get hit with !offtopic. anything offtopic follows !o4o, afaik. [04:42] mneptok: so i'd say that it's still valid. [04:44] emma: ennyhoo, you know what i'm getting at. you have beat the drum on some issues so loudly that your particular drum is not welcome in public channels any more. those guidelines reflect that. and that does mean that your treatment is different from other users' treatment. [04:46] * mneptok taps the mic [04:46] is this thing on? [04:47] apparently not [04:47] For the time being, I would simply like some reasonable assurance (if it is possible) that assuming I do not do something uncalled for (which I have shown no tendency to do) that I will not be subject to any thing vindictive in other #ubuntu- channels. [04:48] * Hobbsee already agreed to that. [04:48] emma: repeatedly bringing up IRSeek after *many* requests to stop is uncalled for. [04:50] emma: you have snidely commented on my behavior being some sort of prototypical bad behavior. to paraphrase, "this guy is why no one likes ops." you have done the same to other people. that's always uncalled for. [04:50] Hobbsee -- I appreciate that very much. That means a great deal. [04:51] *sigh* [04:51] mneptok: irseek == offtopic. it's also propaganda. [04:51] mneptok - I would like to say that you are correct that my particular comment directed at you was not productive. [04:51] (when talking extensively about it) [04:51] heading off propaganda is alos allowed, when it starts. [04:52] I think that I can agree to the spirit of "Stop beating the drum about IRSeek in #ubuntu-* channels. [04:52] emma: i'm not asking for an apology, but just that you think about seeing from my chair your claim no tendency to uncalled-for behavior. [04:52] s/claim/claim\ of/ [04:52] I can even agree to something like, "When talking about logging, or other things, and asked by an op to stop, please do so" [04:53] mneptok - I think that seeing things from others perspectives is very healthy and I agree with you about that. [04:53] emma: just remove "about logging, or other things," and you got the idea [04:54] I think we could remove those words and that would be a much more reasonable list of conditions. [04:54] emma: just drop topics whenever an op asks, and bring it here [04:54] emma: things get less bumpy when you comply publicly, and kvetch in here. [06:25] * Myrtti reads the backlog [06:36] hm [06:36] good morning [06:36] Myrtti: morning :) [06:36] good midnight to all [08:04] * jussi01 hugs Jucato [08:04] heh :) [08:04] and sighs at #k [08:04] I guess he needs a definition of terms :) [08:04] poor guy [08:04] yeah [08:09] * Jucato hugs Jucato [08:09] er.. I meant jussi01 [08:10] lol [08:12] yippee, just made a successful conversion to my new home [08:12] new real life home or $HOME? [08:12] $HOME [08:12] aaah :) [08:13] I moved fromthe work server, which I didnt want to be on, for fear of breakage, to a server of a friend [08:13] :) [08:13] heheh [08:13] you don't fear breaking your friend's :P [08:14] I dont have sudo acces on it... [08:14] :D [08:14] lol [08:23] did he really get it? I'm not sure :/ [08:26] * jussi01 hopes... [08:40] * jpatrick looks at the pingage carnage he has from last night [11:34] !ping [11:35] ubotu is lagging again? [11:35] ping yourself ;-) really the diodes all down my left side are sore [11:35] :) [11:39] nalioth: spam: [22:33] 18:00:10> http://www.tor-forge.com/articles/666/media/114.jpg check it out! you could win a chance to get an phone call from a dead author! [11:48] why does the nick Aishiko ring a bell? [12:10] Mez: that people have to be given this thing by force flooder? [12:11] jpatrick, ?? [12:11] nevermind [12:11] Hobbsee: -motu [12:11] Hobbsee: now he's learnt he's got ops :) [12:12] jpatrick: why does he have them? [12:12] Hobbsee: pm?
