| Ng | mjg59: so. the optical drive in the DL145 is 9.5mm where all the other HPs we have seem to be about 12mm | 10:17 |
| Ng | ie I have nothing to swap it out for :/ | 10:17 |
| FXMaveric | hello | 10:42 |
| Ng | cking: the DL145 bios does have an option to present the SATA controller as PATA, trying that now | 12:10 |
| Ng | cking: doh, it's still full of fail | 12:11 |
| cking | Ng: bummer | 12:11 |
| Ng | I'll poke around the bios a little more to check there isn't anything else along those lines | 12:12 |
| Ng | normally that option does seem to specifically refer to AHCI, this just offers SATA/PATA | 12:12 |
| cking | The main problem is that the controller subsystem has changed a lot - so it's one of those corner issues where a quirk may need to be added :-( | 12:13 |
| elmargol | Hi if I inset my proxim wireless pccard into my laptop syslog is spammed wifi0: hardware error; resetting | 12:13 |
| elmargol | and i get 100% system cpu usage | 12:14 |
| elmargol | The same card works on my other laptop | 12:14 |
| Ng | cking: hmm, no other options in the main system bios | 12:15 |
| * Ng checks for a sata controller bios | 12:15 | |
| cking | Ng, Annoyingly, there are some possible kernel module tweaks one could try, but I don't know how to pass them down to the module on a LiveCD. | 12:16 |
| Ng | sata controller bios has no options | 12:17 |
| Ng | cking: I could at least try the options from the busybox shell | 12:17 |
| cking | Ng: Give me a little while and I will find some appropriate runes. | 12:18 |
| Ng | sure | 12:19 |
| Ng | I'm just going to have a quick check to see if there's an updated bios or something | 12:19 |
| === Whoopie_ is now known as Whoopie | ||
| cking | Ng: I suggest trying: options libata noacpi=1 | 12:26 |
| Ng | cking: I'm going to try booting a gutsy alternate installer to check this definitely isn't a regression. beyond that I should hand this off to the server team - they can netboot it and yous can all get it seeing the CD drive. I don't think physical presence or actual CDs are necessary here since the issue is the thing not even being detected | 12:27 |
| Ng | (I will check that it netboots correctly though ;) | 12:28 |
| cking | Ng: OK makes sense. | 12:28 |
| xivulon | hi cking | 12:30 |
| cking | xivulon: hi there. How can I help? | 12:31 |
| xivulon | I believe that evand mentioned some issues with wubi and buffer i/o error | 12:31 |
| xivulon | I did some testing yesterday and found out the issue, but would appreciate some further help | 12:31 |
| cking | xivulon: good - I've been stuck trying to obtain a working XP system to experiment further. | 12:32 |
| xivulon | no need anymore :) | 12:32 |
| xivulon | this is the new problem | 12:32 |
| xivulon | basically wubi uses a nested filesystem, one problem is that data loss in the host filesystem (generally ntfs) may result in journal disruption in the hosted filesystem | 12:32 |
| xivulon | to minimize the problems, Szaka suggest to use sysctl settings that would minimize the use of cached disk data | 12:33 |
| cking | That makes sense | 12:33 |
| xivulon | what happened is that new version of the kernel (12) does not like the settings we always had | 12:33 |
| xivulon | and that resulted in the buffer I/O errors | 12:34 |
| cking | OK - any details on the settings being used? | 12:34 |
| xivulon | sure one sec | 12:34 |
| xivulon | https://bugs.launchpad.net/wubi/+bug/204133/comments/12 | 12:35 |
| ubotu | Launchpad bug 204133 in wubi "wubi install unusable - Buffer I/O error on device loop0" [High,In progress] | 12:35 |
| xivulon | so first point is: I am quite sure those settings used to work in the past, and I do not know if that is any reason of concern kernel-wise | 12:36 |
| xivulon | second point is: what would be a reasonable/safe set of settings to use in order to minimize hardreboot problems? | 12:37 |
| cking | xivulon: OK I will put some effort in this afternoon to see if they work. | 12:37 |
| xivulon | cking thanks, please post anything you find in the bug | 12:38 |
| cking | xivulon: 2nd point: good question. This needs some figuring out :-) | 12:38 |
| xivulon | great, looking forward to that! | 12:38 |
| cking | xivulon: Thanks for getting it so far. I got stuck on the XP enviroment to test this out, so you've helped me a huge amount. | 12:38 |
| cking | ..I also got side tracked on other stuff too :-( | 12:39 |
| xivulon | ah that wasn't strictly necessary, provided you have an ntfs partition (virtual or not) you can test on that... | 12:39 |
| xivulon | I could have provided a skeleton for the rest | 12:39 |
| cking | xivulon: I'll keep you posted... your help has been invaluable - collect 1 free virtual beer :-) | 12:40 |
| xivulon | ah thank you for looking into this! | 12:40 |

| munckfish | Hi, re ps3-kboot update. Good new is I can now get the hardy daily live to boot on PS3, however, although the install kernel boots, the graphics are all messed up. | 17:19 |
| munckfish | and when it reaches X it's going to a sort of messed up failsafe | 17:19 |
| munckfish | pseudo terms are also messed up | 17:19 |
| munckfish | I need to quickly work out if this is something left wrong from kboot or whether it's a new issue | 17:20 |
| munckfish | does anyone have any tips or links on how to debug the framebuffer graphics we use while booting up? | 17:21 |
| munckfish | I'm completely green to this whole part of Linux at the moment | 17:21 |

| IntuitiveNipple | Building the hardy git 'generic' flavour tonight I'm getting "previous or current ABI file missing" - it's building 2.6.24-16.29, is that correct (CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=4; fakeroot debian/rules binary-generic binary-header) ? | 21:02 |
| amitk | IntuitiveNipple: it needs an ABI bump, will happen later today | 21:19 |
| IntuitiveNipple | Thanks Amit - I thought that was the case haivng looked at debian/abi/* but wanted to be sure | 21:20 |
| IntuitiveNipple | Didn't realise until the end of a long build... was trying to avoid starting from scratch with AUTOBUILD :) | 21:21 |
| amitk | IntuitiveNipple: you can add a skipabi=1 to the end to force a .deb if you want | 21:22 |
| IntuitiveNipple | Hmmm, I did try that but got ignored... thanks for that, I'll try it again later to see if I got it wrong somehow | 21:24 |
| IntuitiveNipple | ahh! I only put "skipabi", forgot the "=1" bit :p | 21:25 |
| sourcemaker | when I use vpn on linux... I receive the following message: martian source, ll.. what's wrong? | 21:31 |
| sourcemaker | and my application does not work then | 21:31 |
| IntuitiveNipple | sourcemaker: A martian source is an invalid, non-routeable address... You'd be better off asking in ##linux or #ubuntu | 21:39 |
| sourcemaker | IntuitiveNipple: ok... thanks | 21:40 |
| amitk | IntuitiveNipple: thanks for the wiki update | 21:45 |
| IntuitiveNipple | you're welcome - I've lived on that page before so every little helps :) | 21:49 |
| IntuitiveNipple | The only thing I've left to work out is how to do a make-kpkg out-of-tree build | 21:50 |
| IntuitiveNipple | Hopefully this build will give me a pure Ubuntu kernel with the i450NX patch in so I can sign off the failed PowerEdge server | 21:52 |
| elmo | IntuitiveNipple: the patch in that b ug report won't work on the server I originally reported it against, though, will it? | 21:55 |
| IntuitiveNipple | elmo: No, but if you want to provide the dmidecode output of the server, it can be added. I didn't want to add anything I'm not 100% sure about | 21:57 |
| IntuitiveNipple | It'd be best to test each one - unfortunately there's not an easy way aside from building a kernel that ignore the i450nx fix entirely. | 21:58 |
| elmo | IntuitiveNipple: I don't have an i450 in the machine though? | 21:58 |
| elmo | is what I meant | 21:58 |
| IntuitiveNipple | Did you manage to capture a boot log ? | 21:59 |
| elmo | I think there's a screenshot in the bug | 22:00 |
| elmo | oh, yes | 22:00 |
| elmo | because, haha!, if you wait 30+ minutes, it eventually finds the drives | 22:00 |
| elmo | and you can continue the boot | 22:00 |
| IntuitiveNipple | I was wondering more about a full serial console log, but, looking at your screenshots the aacraid module is loading so it's possible the causes of the "Disk offlined" messages are different. I switched to bugzilla in solving the bus issue - I maybe should create another Ubuntu bug report especially for this | 22:03 |
| elmo | yeah, we haven't upgraded firmware yet either, to rule that out | 22:04 |
| elmo | IntuitiveNipple: how did you update the firmware btw? | 22:04 |
| IntuitiveNipple | I had some fun today - discovered the PERC2 is also a HP NetRAID 4M (Adaptec AAC364) and got one from ebay for £18! | 22:05 |
| IntuitiveNipple | Downloaded the Dell firmware DOS-floppy installer .exe, ran it from wine and wrote the files to the two floppies, then used them to update it | 22:06 |
| IntuitiveNipple | there's "afu.exe" (adaptec firmware updater) on the boot floppy | 22:06 |
| IntuitiveNipple | The battery on the PERC2 cache was failing and Dell don't do a replacement - got the NetRAID 4M, found a HP replacement part # on the battery, they cost US$128 minimum, so done well on that server today! | 22:07 |
