hrlrHello, I'm trying to identify a bug.   When I go: System --> Administration --> Network Tools and then select the "Lookup" tab I enter the IP address for my ubuntu machine.  Nothing is returned from the query.  Can someone help?00:38

bdmurrayhrlr: which release of Ubuntu are you using?00:40
hrlrHardy00:41
hrlrbdmurray: Hardy00:41
hrlrbdmurray: My router is also not returning a hostname for my ubuntu system.  Something's fishy.00:42
tawmasHi, everybody, I'm still new around here and I could use some guidance... Think I've nailed this one: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/netbase/+bug/209087 and I think it's filed against the wrong package. I have what looks like the same bug and I have a workaround.00:44
tawmasI hope this is the proper place to get some help :-) Please, crucify me if I'm wrong00:45
james_wtawmas: you're not wrong at all, this is exactly the right place00:45
tawmasjames_w: k, fine!00:46
james_wtawmas: what package do you think it applies to?00:46
bdmurrayhrlr: I'm not positive but I think that applet queries your dns server so wouldn't look in '/etc/hosts'00:46
tawmasjames_w: network-manager-applet or network-config (sorry, I had the right name for the latter yesterday I need to look it up again)00:47
bdmurrayhrlr: do you have a dns server under your control?00:48
tawmasjames_w: when you switch from roaming mode to manual configuration, it's writing a blank link in /etc/network/interfaces where there should be an auto <interface>00:48
tawmasmanually editing the file and restarting networking does the trick00:49
hrlrbdmurray: No.  But I'm able to see other computers on my network by using this technique.  It shows their hostnames and information.00:49
james_wtawmas: I've not heard of network-config, but it sounds like it might well be it's fault.00:50
hrlrbdmurray: I wish I had Gutsy installed so I could compare.  I'm almost positive that it worked in Gutsy.00:50
james_wtawmas: how do you switch to and from roaming mode?00:50
bdmurrayhrlr: I have a gutsy system around and can check it out00:50
hrlrbdmurray: Really?  That would be awesome!00:51
jlpariseHey guys00:51
jlpariseI'm a gutsy right now00:51
jlpariseif you need me to check something00:51
tawmasjames_w: just looked it up, the name is network-config. I click on the n-m applet icon and the select manual configuration from the dropdown00:51
hrlrjlpraise:  When I go: System --> Administration --> Network Tools and then select the "Lookup" tab I enter the IP address for my ubuntu machine.  Nothing is returned from the query.  Can you test this on Gutsy?00:52
jlparisesure I'll try it now00:52
james_wtawmas: then what? I can try it now00:52
james_wtawmas: are you on Hardy?00:53
james_wtawmas: do you mean network-admin?00:53
tawmasjames_w: yep, that could be00:53
james_wtawmas: it's source package is "gnome-system-tools", you should probably reassign it there. Do you know how to do that?00:54
hrlrjlparise: By "my ubuntu machine" I mean 192.168.1.10400:54
hrlrjlparise: So whatever your local address is.00:54
jlpariseI am rtying to remember hwo to get my IP00:54
jlpariselong day at work...00:55
tawmasJames_w: do I click to expand and type in the new package name?00:55
james_wtawmas: exactly00:55
hrlrjlparise:  If you use NetworkManager you can right click on it and hit "Connection Information"00:55
jlpariseinterestingly my connection info is always greyed out00:56
jlpariseeven though I am connected00:56
james_wtawmas: if you also add a comment with everything you have found out, the steps to reproduce, and the cause of the failure (i.e. where the line is) then it should be triaged tomorrow00:56
tawmasBTW, I just found that if I try and edit the settings from the Network tools applet, it brings up a dialog telling that the interface doesn't exist00:56
jlpariseifconfig thats the one...00:56
james_wtawmas: the gnome triagers are excellent.00:56
tawmasJames_w: excellent :-)00:56
tawmasI'm doing right now00:56
james_wtawmas: ah, that's odd, you should add that information as well. I've got to sleep now, sorry I can't help you more.00:56
jlpariseOk I just tried it with my IP on Gutsy00:57
jlpariseI did get 1 line of output00:57
tawmasI know, it's 2 in the night here ;-)00:57
tawmasGood night, and thanks00:57
hrlrjlparise:  ifconfig -a00:57
jlpariseyeh I just figured it out thanks though00:57
james_wtawmas: go to be then :-)00:57
jlpariseI get 1 complete line of output00:57
jlpariseinterestingly it's the same line nomatter what I pick on the information type combo box00:58
=== LjL-Temp is now known as LjL
tawmasjames_w: one last question: do I also confirm it?01:00
hrlrjlparise:  so it does provide a response?01:00
jlpariseyes01:00
jlparisebut as I said that combo box doesn;t seem to change the response01:00
jlpariseI am not sure if it should, I just see that it doesn't01:00
hrlrbdmurray: Have you been able to test on your Gutsy as well?01:01
hrlrjlparise:  Interesting.01:01
bdmurrayhrlr: yes and my hostname doesn't show up when I search for it01:02
bdmurrayYou are searching by IP though is that right?01:03
hrlrbdmurray: Yes01:03
hrlrbdmurray: Using localhost doesn't work either.01:03
jlpariseI was also searching by IP, however I don't have a DNS server or anythign liek that01:03
jlparisehrlr: If I enter "localhost" I get information, but name is blank01:04
jlparisehrlr; If I enter loopback "127.0.0.1" I get different information01:05
hrlrjlparise:  hrmmm...  localhost is working here...  I must have been trying it under the wrong tab earlier... ooops....    The IP address doesn't show anything.01:07
hrlrjlparise:  Do you have any other computers on the LAN that can see that computer that could query the hostname?01:07
hrlrjlparise:  That's where my problem is.  My router and other computers don't see the Ubuntu system where as they had previously.01:08
jlparisehrlr: I don't currently have another machine available...01:08
hrlrI just tried to do a "ping -a 192.168.1.104" from my Windows machine and it doesn't return a hostname.01:11
hrlrBut it does for any other machine on the LAN.01:11
hrlrAnd typing "hostname" in the console of my ubuntu machine diesplays "ubuntu" as a result.01:12
jlparisehmmm01:12
jlparisesometimes on Windows the host names take awhile to repopulate01:13
jlpariseI think the arp DOS command can force a rebuild of the arp tables01:13
jlparisesometimes that an/or cycling power ontherouter/switch helps01:13
hrlrI've been doing that all week and nothing.01:13
jlparisethats all I can think of at the moment01:14
hrlrjlparise:  Interestingly, Gutsy never had this problem.01:15
pochubdmurray: hmm, your hug day list didn't ignore duplicates, perhaps it should have done it?01:15
bdmurrayWhat does ping -a in Windows do?01:15
hrlrresolves hostnames01:15
bdmurraypochu: Yes, that would probably make it more useful.01:16
hrlrIt'll say "Pinging 'hostname'" instead of "Pinging 192.168.1.104".01:16
bdmurraypochu: Sorry about that oversight01:16
pochubdmurray: I've opened 10 bugs, and 5 are dups :)01:17
pochuand of those 5 bugs, 2 are already fixed (the master bug) and 2 already have links to GNOME bugzilla01:18
bdmurrayThat's disappointing.  The query takes quite a while to run so restarting is probably not the best idea.01:18
pochuoh01:18
bdmurrayI'll see what I can do though01:19
affluxmorning :)01:19
hrlrIs there anyone here that has multiple computers on a LAN that can ping or lookup their Hardy machine?01:20
hrlrSorry to be a pain.  I'm just trying to get this thing figured out.01:20
bdmurraypochu: okay, I've a plan thanks for the proding01:26
bdmurrayI didn't realize it was that bad.01:26
pochubdmurray: are you gonna change the list? coz I'm starting to triage bugs :)01:27
pochuif you change it, that's perfect, just to hold on until you change it01:28
bdmurraypochu: yes, I'll change it shortly01:28
bdmurraypochu: well, as soon as I can edit the wiki ;)01:29
pochuouch, sorry01:29

marnaneljames_w: ping.  remind me what happens between adding the new patch and debuild?02:55
mikedep333hey, I've noticed a serious bug reoccur with hardy, but I believe it is being ignored because it was originally filed in 2006. Should I create a new bug report or something?02:56
mikedep333https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24/+bug/35930/02:56
RAOFmikedep333: I'm pretty sure you've got a different bug.  Are you specifying a vga= line in the kernel boot parameters?03:02
RAOFAlso, Yay unfixable drivers!03:04
mikedep333RAOF: no I am not03:08
mikedep333yeah I know. I am hooked on my binary blobs.03:09
RAOFRight.  So, that's certainly a different bug.  I'll mark it as 'invalid'.  Please file another one, preferably with all the ways you can trigger such things (it seems you have a number of bugs there).03:09
mikedep333ok03:10
mikedep333thx03:10
RAOFBe warned that nvidia are a black hole of annoying bugs.03:11
mikedep333yeah03:11
mikedep333I've also heard that even the intel drivers are incomplete and therefore do not have the best compatibility with 3d apps/games.03:11
mikedep333it seems like there are no good options03:12
RAOFIntel are _much_ better.  You mainly see the rough edges when you do stuff with Compiz.03:12
mikedep333what I've heard is that many programs under wine (ugh) do not work because the intel drivers have less features03:13
RAOFAnd the infrastructure to fix those rough edges (and make Intel much faster) is in Xorg git.03:13
mikedep333yeah, of course03:13
RAOFI know that WoW works fine under wine on Intel; I don't imagine that there's a lot of stuff that won't work.03:14
mikedep333ok03:14
mikedep333I'll keep that in mind next time I want to buy a PC with integrated graphics03:14
RAOFTherin lies the problem, yes.  Intel may have some actual graphics _cards_ in a year or so, though :)03:15
mikedep333lol, yeah03:15
mikedep333that would be nice03:15
mikedep333and I am eagerly waiting to see how fast the CPU/GPU combos are03:15
RAOF(And their windows 3d drivers will share their infrastructure with the linux ones).03:16
mikedep333cool03:16
mikedep333what do they do for opengl?03:16
mikedep333do they use mesa?03:16
RAOFNot at the moment; the gallium (mesa-ng!) framework is cross-platform, though, and that's what they're using.03:17
RAOFs/using/will be using/.03:17
mikedep333I see03:17
mikedep333google results don't show much for that03:18
mikedep333right now I am looking over the monstrous thread for my laptop to see if people are noticing my bug again03:18

collusionShould LP#207526 be forwarded upstream?04:47
greg-gbug 20752604:48
collusionor, maybe someone could confirm it for me.04:48
greg-gare you experiencing it also?  and can you confirm that the patch/workaround works?04:51
collusioni submitted the bug, actually.04:52
greg-goh04:52
greg-gwell, the information provided looks good04:54
collusionseems like a simple to adapt patch but i don't know if that's something that we'd fix in ubuntu version or pass on to the upstream.  i can only imagine the mb of log messages this might generate if it gets into LTS. :-)04:56
greg-gcollusion: yeah, do you know the upstream bug tracker?04:59
collusionthe debian bts? not particularly well though i was just reading about it.05:00
* greg-g doesn't know much about postfix, specifically whether it should go to debian or postfix proper05:00
collusionhm.05:01
collusionthe file that is patched appears to be a Debian addition.05:03
greg-gso probably debian then05:04
hrlrI've been having problems with Hardy and DHCP as it operates out-of-the-box.  The problem I've been having is Hardy not handing off the hostname to DHCP when establishing an IP address where Gutsy is working just fine.05:04
hrlrGutsy:  http://pastebin.ca/96571505:05
hrlrHardy: http://pastebin.ca/96571605:05
collusioncan you limit tcpdump to port 68?05:06
hrlrSure..  How do I do that?  :)05:06
collusion"tcpdump -s 1500 port 68" should work, i think.05:07
hrlrbrb.  I'll give it a shot right now.05:09
greg-gcollusion: new comment on your bug, looks good.05:12
greg-gok, did my few for tonight, time for bed05:13
hrlrcollusion: http://pastebin.ca/96572105:14
collusiongreg-g: thx for the help. 'night.05:14
greg-gcollusion: np05:14
collusionhrlr: are you using network manager?05:16
hrlrcollusion: yes.05:16
collusionhow do you know that hardy is not handing off the hostname?05:16
collusioncan you pastebin the relevant lines from /var/log/daemon.log?  (NetworkManager logs a lot of status information there.)05:17
hrlrcollusion: because the router doesn't have the hostname in it.05:17
collusionhrlr: you're looking to get a specific IP address but you're just getting a random one?05:17
hrlrAnd when I ping the machine with another windows machine (ping -a 192.168.1.104) it doesn't resolve.05:18
hrlrcollusion: No.  It should operate dynamically out-of-the-box..  should it not?05:18
hrlrcollusion:  I should clarify...  when I go "ping -a 192.168.1.104" from the windows machine it doesn't resolve the hostname but still pings the ip.05:19
hrlrIn Gutsy I don't have that problem...05:20
collusionah.05:21
hrlrEverything appears to be fine on the local machine though.  I type in "hostname" and get back what is expected.  and that's "ubuntu".05:21
hrlrBut everyone else on the network doesn't see my hostname as Hardy isn't giving it up to the DHCP.05:21
hrlrBut I have no idea how to articulate this bug and where to start.05:22
hrlrWould that be a "high priority" bug if it were confirmed?05:23
collusioni can't speak to the priorities.05:24
collusion(i'm new here.)05:24
hrlrahhhh...  so how would I go about getting this confirmed?05:25
collusioni sort of feel like your router should be assigning the hostname.05:25
hrlrThat always comes from the machine name...  does it not?05:26
collusionDHCP usu. works by you telling the DHCP server your hw mac address and it telling you an IP address.  The mapping of IP address to DNS name may or may not be handled by the same machine.05:27
collusionso in general your DNS name may not match the output of `hostname`05:27
hrlrI'm confused as to why gutsy would operate differently in this case.05:28
collusionin tomato wrt, i can assign myself a hostname in the gui.05:28
collusionthat is a bit odd. are you testing with two separate machines?05:28
hrlrSame machine.05:28
collusionfull clean installs in separate partitions? do they share any state? (e.g. /var)05:28
hrlrReseting the router on each try so to be sure there is nothing leaching over.05:28
collusioncan you compare /var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient.* on the two machines?05:29
collusion(er, two partitions)05:29
hrlrHardy is installed and I did the other tcpdump from the gutsy live-cd.05:30
hrlrSo I can't really compare...  other than to say that they're both default installs.05:31
hrlrerr... default settings05:31
collusionoic.05:32
collusiondoes "grep host-name /var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient*" return anything on hardy?05:33
hrlrthis returns nothing05:33
collusionwell, the next thing i'd be curious about is the output of NetworkManager in /var/log/daemon.log between gutsy and hardy.05:37
collusionsounds like it might be a regression.05:37
hrlrI'm not sure what I'd be looking for...  any hints?05:41
hrlrMar 31 19:27:41 ubuntu NetworkManager: <info>    domain name 'phub.net.cable.rogers.com'05:43
hrlrabove is what Hardy produced in the logs...  I'll bet Gutsy says "Mar 31 19:27:41 ubuntu NetworkManager: <info>    domain name 'ubuntu.phub.net.cable.rogers.com' "05:44
hrlrshould I go look?05:44
hrlrbrb05:45
collusionwell, have to run; hrlr should look for hostname entries in the NetworkManager logs.  I imagine there might be a difference in gutsy.05:56

jcastroyep, I am on it greg-g15:59
greg-gjcastro: thankya, tell me what you are doing so you don't have to do it again for me :)15:59
jcastrogreg-g: basically, I click on register on the lp front page16:01
jcastrothen I create a new project and fill out all the info for the project16:01
greg-goh, ok. I believe I had done that before (for a different project).  Just making sure that is the right way since it wasn't mentioned in the BugSquad "watches" page16:01
jcastrogreg-g: https://edge.launchpad.net/mergeant16:01
qenseyou can register a project when selecting one to add a project's bug to the bug watcher16:01
qensein the search dialog there is a register project link16:01
jcastrogreg-g: I usually go a step further and import their svn, register their bug tracker, etc.16:02
jcastrosince so many of the registered projects are empty16:02
greg-gjcastro: yeah, good deal16:02
qenseI just registered a project and found their maintainer at LP :) so I didn't do a thing(except for the bug tracker) and assigned him as maintainer16:03
greg-gqense: I'll look closer next time :)16:03
qenseok :)16:03
qenseyou will be maintainer after you've registered the project16:03

pedro_you want to add one to which bug?17:36
pedro_because there's one pointing to a gtk+ bug17:36
secretlondonyes, afaik. it seems silly17:36
secretlondonit also seems to imply that every bit of gnome is registered on laucnhpad, and gives me the bug triager some ownership of the project17:37

jwendellpochu, I was going to ask you to reply that vinagre bug, but I already have done22:21
pochubug 208449?22:22
ubotuLaunchpad bug 208449 in vinagre "vinagre crashed with SIGSEGV" [Medium,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/20844922:22
jwendellpochu, yep22:23
jwendellpochu, fortunately next gtk-vnc/vinagre will come with a debug framework, and will not be necessary to rebuild it anymore22:23
jwendellpochu, it will be enough to run 'vinagre --gtk-vnc-debug' to get debug output ;)22:24
pochujwendell: oh, that sounds so cool :)22:33
jwendellpochu, ask people to rebuild something is too hard22:34
jwendell:)22:34
pochujwendell: another option would be to ask the reporters to install a -dbgsym, but I guess that would be only useful for crashes22:34
pochuheh, indeed22:34
jwendellpochu, yes, we need a good backtrace + debug info22:34
pochufor the backtrace, the dbgsym would be useful... not sure for the debug output22:35
jwendellpochu, for debug, they have to rebuild gtk-vnc with --enable-debug in configure :P22:36
pochuright... I'll add a comment on the bug offering my help if they have issues with rebuilding it22:37
jwendellpochu, thanks22:38
