[00:02] tretle: Because the hardware and software both support multitouch, I guess. What is there to explain!? [00:03] inspiron 6400 doesnt ship with a multitouch trackpad [00:04] Well, if it's successfully detecting multiple touches, I guess it does actually?

[00:27] i read the mark shuttleworth bit on slashdot about the kola [00:27] release [00:28] and it mentioned how the plan was for jaunty to have a 25 second boot time on a netbook and how they were looking for bug reports. [00:28] im using the netbook remiximage for 8.04, i just tried installing the netbook remix image for jaunty but cant :( [00:29] i cant find a bug report, thought i could check in here to see if its a known issue? [00:41] anyone here used jaunty netbook remix image? [00:43] hi, can anyone reproduce https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/332343 ?

I imagine it can be disabled but why did it just turn on? [01:31] i think the pulseaudio fix has finally made it to lpia [02:02] can anyone help me get my alps touchpad scrolling working? i installed gsynaptics and it enables/disables the touchpad, but scrolling no worky [02:02] it mouses and clicks fine though === elpargo_ is now known as elpargo === bluesmoke is now known as Amaranth [03:09] hey guys [03:09] my synaptics touchpad scroll doesnt work in jaunty, and during bootup it says something like: "synaptics failed to start from resume" [03:09] anyone have a similar issue? [03:10] also on intel driver the windows redraw slowly. Appear slowly rather there's like a 1 sec delay between clicking on minimized window and it appearing, 3d games work fine glxinfo reports direct rendering enabled [04:14] hI [04:15] I am trying to turn on ATheros 802.11 wireless lan card drivers within Jockey [04:15] and it's saying "THis driver was just disbaled, but is still in use" [04:15] right after I *enable* it [04:15] any idears? [04:17] I'm not sure, but I don't think you want to enable that driver [04:18] the ath5k driver appears to be included in jaunty's kernel now [04:18] the one in jockey is madwifi, which is being replaced by ath5k [04:19] does ath5k reliably support AP mode? [04:19] I bought a DWA-552 and ath9k was extremely crappy on it. [04:19] so I switched back to my old card that I had madwifi running on my old server with [04:21] you want to be an access point? [04:21] yes [04:21] never tried that :) [04:22] had the DWA_552 working with ath9k [04:22] but it was just operating like absolute crud [04:22] madwifi at least worked reasonably [04:23] for this other trendnet card that was about 1/4th the price of the DWA_552 [04:26] hmm WPA2 is broken in the jaunty hostapd apparently [04:59] Hi - as I understand Jaunty will ship with 2.6.28, correct? [05:01] yes [05:04] chu_: but the kernel team cherry pick patches from .29 [05:04] Oh sweet. [05:04] If I *need* some aspect from .29, can I request it be added to 9.04? :D [05:05] chu_: usually its only for bugs [05:05] err bug fixes [05:05] Well, acpi support is broken on .28, but there's a fix in .29.. what are the odds? [05:05] chu_: is a bug filed? [05:06] I've seen the bug on bugzilla... and have seen it on launchpad (actually how I found out there was a fix in .29) [05:06] chu_: well I would talk to the kernel team and watch the LP bug [05:07] Ok thanks, pretty much exactly what I wanted to hear. [05:10] so, jaunty works extrememly well with netbooks ehh? [05:42] when there gonna be a 2.6.28 rt kernel in the official repo? [05:42] what is kernel mode setting ?

[05:46] AnAnt: KMS is what is needed for plymouth [05:47] Daemonbuntu: it could be an ipv6 issue [05:47] ziroday: plymouth is like usplash ? [05:47] is that a system service I can turn off? [05:48] AnAnt: yep [05:48] Daemonbuntu: you can try http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-disable-ipv6-in-ubuntu.html [05:50] ziroday: before final release of intrepid developement , there was a different way to set the VT resolution, was that KMS ? [05:50] AnAnt: not quite sure what you're talking about that, but I don't think so [05:50] ok [05:51] * Daemonbuntu curses at IPv6 by default [05:51] I just saw a vid. of switching between X & VT using KMS ! fast indeed ! [05:51] Daemonbuntu: cjwatson has a libc6 that fixes it in his ppa [05:51] at least Windows has a reasonable wrapper for it that most users won't notice [05:51] AnAnt: see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UDSJaunty/Report/Desktop#Plymouth [05:51] Daemonbuntu: he's asking for testers, though so far all results have been positive [05:51] Daemonbuntu: let me find the bug [05:52] Daemonbuntu: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glibc/+bug/313218/comments/47 [05:52] Ubuntu bug 313218 in glibc "IPV6 causes slow internet access" [Critical,Confirmed] [05:53] thanks for the suggestion, I'll reboot after my movie is over [05:53] man, if only intel driver supports KMS, that's a problem ! I wonder if ATI/NVIDIA proprietary drivers will ever support that [05:54] AnAnt: there are plans for both ati/nvidia drivers to support kms. There is a plymouth package if you want to try it out [05:55] ziroday: will it be easy to make plymouth themes ? [05:56] AnAnt: not sure, never tried it [05:59] well, thanks [06:03] well, disabling ipv6 worked, I don't care about patching it cause nothing I have is even ipv6 compatible [06:04] i have no oss/alsa audio, but the console echo '\a' is incredibly loud heh [06:09] helo: we need more info than that [06:11] intel 82801g audio chipset (hp mini) [06:11] it worked fine with intrepid [06:12] please run http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh [06:12] (using bash) [06:13] can the "create boot usb " be used once booted to install ubuntu on a pc? what program do I run? [06:14] hanasaki: it should still be in the menu, i think [06:15] thakns.. I do not see it.. can you tell me what menu and what program name? [06:15] hanasaki: System > Administration > Create a USB Boot Disk [06:16] ziroday: yes.. I have that.. once I boot.. where is the option to install ubuntu on the system I booted the usb on? [06:16] hanasaki: you have to configure your bios to boot from the USB disk [06:17] I have that covered. the usb is booted. what menu item do I need to run to install ubuntu on the HD of the system I booted the usb on?> [06:18] hanasaki: ah! I'm not sure if the USB install can do that :P, if its anywhere it'll be in System > Administration > Install [06:18] hmmm what progam can I apt-get that is the installer? [06:19] hanasaki: ubiquity, not sure if it will work though [06:19] thanks. i will try it. dont have a cdrom drive to boot..... any other suggestions? [06:19] how can i adjust contrast in kde4?

[06:23] chronic: jockey should detect it [06:24] well, i guess the only way to find out is to do it, as always [06:24] helo: is `speaker-test -c2 -Dplughw:0' likewise inaudible? can you mute (set nocap) the 'Analog Loopback's?

[06:31] didn't know you could mount an audio cd [06:31] KDE doesn't recognize audio discs, only data ones [06:33] Daemonbuntu: audio disks dont get mounted [06:33] Daemonbuntu: but um, yeah, amarok2 doesn't do CDs i heard [06:33] someone was complaining about the decision to have it not do CDs the other day [06:33] maco: My GNOME apps can't recognize the discs in KDE, but can under GNOME [06:34] oh well that's shiny [06:35] http://helo.org/fuser-alsa.txt [06:35] helo: close rhythmbox first, then retry the speaker-test [06:36] it acts like it is working, but no sound [06:37] well, no errors at least [06:37] does `sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils reset' help? [06:40] resetting alsa... Invalid card number. [06:44] (and many other errors) [06:45] looks like --help output from alsactl repeated several times [06:47] was the alt+f2 changed to something else for lounching apps? [06:48] works for me [06:48] not for me [06:48] must be keyboard problem [06:49] what's the name of that app? [06:51] chronic: its part of gnome-panel. if kde user, krunner [06:51] thanks [07:18] ugh, try hitting "previous track" over and over so notifications for the first track repeat......... [07:18] it goes on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and [07:18] ... and so on. [07:18] And there's no way to dismiss them. [07:21] why doesn't the installer add the user it creates to the audio group? [07:22] audio can be dangerous for mere mortals to use [07:22] so a user migrating from windows is expected to know that they have to add their user to the audio group to get sound to work? [07:24] Stralytic: no, that's a bug when it occurs. Normally it does not occur. [07:24] so sound should work without being in the audio group? [07:24] no, your user normally is added to the audio group [07:25] ic [07:25] i wasn't added to the video group either [07:33] Which version of debian is it based on? [07:33] to what does "it" refer? [07:34] 9.04, dtchen [07:39] orgthingy: Debian testing/unstable [07:39] testing as in when Lenny was testing? [07:39] orgthingy: there is no specific version on which jaunty/9.04 is based [07:39] no [07:39] or just sid-of-that time? [07:39] source packages are synced from sid automatically until DebianImportFreeze [07:39] dtchen: ah, so best of whatever-it-should-do? neat [07:40] at anytime, source packages can be synced from wherever [09:07] Anyone else's system become 'sluggish'? [09:08] Like, three second pauses between switching windows, that sort of thing? [09:08] It's not like anything's eating up excess CPU or anything. [09:15] so i resisted the temptation of upgrading to jaunty till now but now with the notifications being stable and all i think i want to upgrade. [09:16] so first a few questions is jaunty stable enough? this is the only machine i have so cant deal with huge problems. [09:16] alpha4? [09:16] 2nd ly i have a nvidia graphics card so are the resticted drivers released and are they stable enugh? [09:16] bazhang: yeah [09:16] from the topic: [09:17] "it will most certainly break your system in bad ways" [09:17] bazhang: i am ready to deal with few minor issues cant have huge problems. i have read that topic want to know from other users's experience do they find it stable somewhat atleast [09:17] and also the nvidia drivers issue? [09:17] break your system does not seem minor [09:18] I would run in vm or wait for late beta/RC [09:19] hmm... alright. but i thought that we are nearly at alpha 5 so it might be rid of most of the major problems [09:19] and would someone pls tell me the situation of the nvidia drivers? [09:20] I think they're supposed to work if you tell them to ignore the ABI. [09:20] But I have ATI, so I'm not 100%. [09:22] oh i thought that abi issue waas solved . could someone with nvidia card and on with latest updates please confirm the status? [09:31] idorock89: get the livecd and try it out [09:41] ziroday: but frm the livecd i cant try out the nvida restricted drivers [09:42] idorock89: yes you can... [09:44] ziroday: that will a little difficult as i will have to set up my net connection as it requires some work for ti. [09:44] idorock89: well that is the best way to see if your card works. There were a couple of nvidia related uploads on Feb 1st if that helps [09:45] so if someone already on the alpha latest could tell me the situation that would be really nice === Richie is now known as WelshDragon [09:57] Question (I know you guys have probably heard this a lot) but how is X and the drivers in Jaunty? Is .29 kernel expected to make it? And are there any other showstoppers I should know about? [09:57] I want to install it (I installed Intrepid around Alpha 5 with little trouble, and for testing, but this is my main machine). [09:58] they tend to get x and the kernel all fixed in the last week or two [09:59] i've read they're sticking with 2.6.28, and X is stable as long as you dont have ati/nvidia graphics [09:59] the proprietary nvidia drivers did not work for me last week [10:00] lukehasnoname: I started with 8.10 around alpha2, so far 9.04 alphas have had more problems than 8.10 had during that development cycle [10:00] dns53, there aren't any proprietary drivers written for the new version of X [10:02] Hm [10:05] lukehasnoname: Just come i=on the channel but have you tried it in a v/b ? [10:06] My laptop doesn't support virt [10:06] I haven't tried paravirt [10:07] lukehasnoname: Sorry..Did not realise you were talking abt a laptop.. [10:25] it is stupid to say tath all except ati/nvidia work. dont u realise that aorund 90% people have a ati/nvidia card it aint like we r talking of small minority taht no one knows abt [10:28] hi all [10:29] Does anyone uses Kubuntu Jaunty on a Sony laptop? [10:31] idorock89: intel is the number one GPU vendor [10:32] anyone who has half a decent computer has a nvidia or ati card. only reason for intel to be major is that it comes onboard by default on many motherboards. [10:32] and anyways my point is there is a VERY VERY large no. of users of ati/nvidia to be ignored [10:32] intel is perfectly adequate for laptops [10:33] crdlb: yeah if u never want to play any games [10:34] if you want to play games on a laptop, why did you get a laptop? :> [10:34] even then a good graphix card improves video playback and many other things , blue ray is another eg [10:34] anyway, most ATI cards are reasonably supported (in 2D and some 3D) via the radeon driver [10:34] and nv provides nvidia 2D [10:35] crdlb: this is a pointless debate if i have a graphix card i should be use it to maximum of its capabilities . and not being able to do so is a problem [10:35] in an alpha? [10:35] for an alpha release [10:35] dont tell me propriteary problems and all it is a problem currently and we should accept that [10:35] anyways lets change the topic [10:35] this is not ubuntu's fault [10:36] certainly !ot for this channel [10:36] intrepid came extremely close to not having a fglrx at release :/ [10:47] crdlb: FGLRX is only an option if there is no alternative [10:47] which is the case for new Ati cards [10:48] how new? does radeonhd provide 2d at least? [10:56] crdlb: radeonhd doesn't work at all and radeon can only support 2d in newer versions [10:57] 4870 [10:57] that's good at least [10:57] and the most downpoint is that both drivers doesn't support powerplay which results in enormous noise [10:57] *biggest [10:57] ouch [10:58] yeah and I guess this will remain for quiet some time [10:58] my old radeon 7500 has no heatsink even :) [10:58] cool but 7800 was hot too [10:58] it's the mobile version (M7) [10:59] AIGLX implementation of FGLRX doesn't support many kwin features, crashes often and tears with XV [10:59] and the openGL video output which doesn't tear with some optimizations is grainy [11:10] crdlb: but at least it works and is quiet :) [11:12] Does anybody uses Kubuntu on a Sony laptop? [12:07] is deluge being a CPU hog for anybody else since yesterday's updates? [12:38] Udev seems to be taking ~50% of a core, lots of events like...

[12:42] cumulus007: Might those be window-edges in the shape of a box? Do you have (IIRC) compositing enabled? [12:42] cumulus007: there are NO backports for jaunty [12:43] okay [12:43] compositing is disabled [12:43] it might be a problem of nv [12:43] will try nvidia now [12:43] hmm [12:43] how to enable ctrl+alt+backspace in Jaunty :P [12:44] dontzap -d [12:44] $ dontzap -d [12:44] I tried to grant myself in the configuration dialog of PolicyKit, but that didn't work [12:44] Strange... that actually works for me [12:44] Such a useful command, why would they disable it by default :( [12:44] chu_: upstream decision [12:44] will be changed on all distros [12:45] unless they delta it their selfs [12:45] that command didn't make sense [12:45] dontzap doesn't exist as a command under xubuntu [12:45] install it ? [12:45] it is installed [12:45] Oh, makes sense when in that context I guess, I heard they disabled it because users would mistake it... Mistake it for what? It's not like you can ctrl+alt+backspace by accident, can you? [12:45] You'd think if they disabled it it would be installed. [12:46] As if they were going for delete instead? [12:46] I dunno [12:46] Those 'across the keyboard' commands are chosen for a reason [12:46] LOL, to apply the effect of DontZap, I need to restart X :P [12:46] Well, even if you were going for delete, there's the option of rebooting, idk [12:46] In the login screen I mean. [12:47] Anyway, no one has any idea about tons of Udev spam, near 50% of a single core use etc?

[16:14] TuTUXG: partitioner hung and would not proceed to next phase of install. [16:15] I had 1 swap, 2 ext3, and 1 XFS partition, and it sat all night. [16:15] tritium: Booting an already installed laptop that used to take <5 min now takes nearly an hour...w ith -tons- of udev messagex x.x [16:16] WT-Udev: hmm, wow [16:16] ext4? [16:16] ext3 [16:16] LVM and crypto though [16:17] At least, I think I picked ext3... I was sick of reiserfs3 (and the last time I used 4 I ended up loosing lots of data before I realized it...) [16:18] XFS doesn't make much sense on a laptop... [16:18] WT-Udev, y? [16:19] in my case, xfs was much faster than ext3 on my laptop [16:20] Actually I might be wrong, I can't think of anything but a gut instinct on why. However single, slow, disk... but the most major problem. XFS doesn't have a shrink option and I've found out that I could really use one for migrations. It's not something I've needed on my laptop yet, but in other places it's been an issue. [16:42] * BUGabundo wonders what was decided about UM checking for ubuntu-desktop.... I had to leave the roam in the middle of the discussion! [16:44] BUGabundo: from what I can see at a glance... it stopped dead when you left [16:45] eheh [16:45] mvo and fte were making a new WAR [16:45] so I ended up not knowing what is the current state [16:45] bug or no bug [16:46] I'll have to wait for mvo to come back [16:46] but thanks WT-Udev [16:46] are there any logs of this #? [16:46] I always autolog irc [16:46] I can't recall doing anything important in here (security wise) [16:47] However I've been in here for about 5-6 hours now [16:47] so that might not be very useful for you [16:47] WT-Udev: Did you solve the slow disk/udev issue? [16:48] IntuitiveNipple: I don't even have a clue where to start, so I posted what little I'd done to the bug-thread and shut my laptop down for the 'night' [16:49] I'm really starting to get sleepy too, so I probably won't be awake for much more than an hour, and I'd barely rate my self as lucid at the moment. [16:49] BUGabundo: This channel is officially logged at http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/ [16:49] WT-Udev: same here... got up at about 2am and didn't go back to bed. [16:49] WT-Udev: What is the 'bug- thread' ? [16:50] IntuitiveNipple: Working night shift ATM...

[16:51] If that doesn't work, I'm going to have to look up the crypt-setup luks stuff again when I boot off pxe or a flash drive.

It'd be easier to just check for an update when I wake up again. [16:56] Besides, if I still have the problem and can boot in to it I can help test it. [16:57] I'm patching it now [16:57] It's the inotify by the look of it [16:58] Notify FOREVER?

[17:05] WT-Udev: I'm uploading a test package of udev to my PPA shortly [17:05] when i click "next" in step 5 (manual setup of partitions) the mouse keeps spinning but doesn't do anything anymore ...

[17:06] WT-Udev: I'm intended to try the daily-live tonight, I wonder if there is a bug repport somewhere [17:06] Sat Feb 21 09:06:25 PST 2009 [17:06] Nope [17:06] You can try searching for it [17:06] mhh, but the update should be installable with the live-cd running? [17:06] soc1: whatever live cd you have will not work that way [17:07] You may be able to get the same result on a console though... I'm unsure. [17:08] hello [17:08] WT-Udev: who knows why I had trouble. Could be something with XFS, or who knows what. Perhaps it'll work better for you. [17:09] soc1: in other words, the code you have right now is either on CD-R (Write Once Read Many) or CD-RW (re-writable...) and is 'broken' [17:09] tritium: it's not me installing [17:10] WT-Udev: but an update with apt of the broken component could fix it (as long as i don't have to reboot), right? [17:12] soc1: Hum... I don't know. If the cd uses unionfs or something similar you might be able to fit that update in to ram and run with it. It's a -maybe-. [17:13] I assume it would fail pretty quickly if that wouldn't work so good luck [17:19] You know... I try to keep my name different every time I have a problem and rejoin freenode. This time I was WTFing at udev... [17:21] ahh ok [17:21] anybody know why toolbar icons default size is bigger than I actually set? [17:22] vbgunz: can you be slightly more specific? [17:22] toolbar icons default size seems to be medium. under my systemsettings toolbar and main toolbar icon sizes are set to small [17:23] konqueror, kmail, etc all have bigger icons on there toolbars than they're supposed to [17:23] thank you, I don't know what's wrong, but that is probably specific enough for you to search bug reports or get an answer from someone that does know. [17:34] does any one knows where to had apps that need patching, to the new notifications? [17:34] is it the wiki (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NotifyOSD/Comments) or LP? === linkinx64__ is now known as LinkinX64 [18:06] WT-Udev: udev 138-2~tj~ppa1j is in my PPA for testing (https://edge.launchpad.net/~intuitivenipple/+archive/ppa/) [18:08] I should be asleep... but... may as well give that a try [18:08] Oh crap, IntuitiveNipple do you know a kernel param i can add to disable inotify? [18:09] Hoping recovery mode bypasses it by being single user [18:09] No, you would need to disable the udev service :) [18:10] funny enough PA 9.14 makes my pidgin crash much more then 9.15~test2 [18:11] IntuitiveNipple: I've not done that in quite a while, would I be able to get a console and ethernet with that? [18:14] Right, forget waiting for the system. The last time I booted that it took 45 min. [18:17] hey peeps, do you know if the UDS are public events ? [18:17] WT-Udev: Easy way to do it. Start from a live-CD, unlock the encrypted volume(s), vgscan + vgchange, then create a chroot and update the package that way [18:19] IntuitiveNipple: I had a flash drive with systemrecovery'cd' on it. I'm chrooted in to my / partition now (no seperate /usr), I didn't bind mount dev or proc though. [18:19] IS there an env-update command like gentoo has? [18:20] It would help to bind /proc /dev /sys just in case [18:20] The you can add my PPA, update, and then apt-get the package [18:20] s/The/Then/ [18:21] Ah forgot /sys [18:21] This may help: http://tjworld.net/wiki/Linux/Ubuntu/Packages/MyPPA [18:25] What a pain... I think I got the network setup right [18:25] trying to recall this at your equivilent of 1am is not fun [18:26] IntuitiveNipple: Your quotes are wrong [18:28] IntuitiveNipple: Also, doesn't tee default to over-write? Or does it -a by defautl?

[18:32] then i close totem, and start again, then its laggy again [18:32] then i close and start again, this time it works and play music nice [18:37] IntuitiveNipple: failed to boot with -8, but that may be because the initrd creation might have failed and left me with a stale initrd (and old udev inside it) [18:38] -7 is booting and seems to be proceeding more rapidly [18:38] I'll try updating the initrd and rebooting after it's loaded [18:38] OK [18:38] I'm trying not to have to restart for now because I've got so much to do, I don't want to be chasing another bug just to be able to work :) [18:39] I know the feeling... I -loathed- the prospect of a 45 min boot time [18:40] Already your patch has cut that to about 5-10 [18:43] how do i disable the crash manager in kde? [18:44] also dtchen if ur around any idea when the audio kernel fix will make it to the repo's? [18:45] IntuitiveNipple: I see some of the errors still, and it's not at full speed but it is much faster than earlier. Still major hard disk activity. I think it's only partly installed though, so I'm going to try re-installing it and rebuilding the initrd when I finally do get in. [18:46] WT-Udev: OK, thanks. I picked the most obvious-looking commit in git and reverted it, so there could be more to do [18:48] I'll update again once I give it a full test [18:54] I may have spoken too soon. / and /home mounted fairly quickly but my 'large files' partition for projects and such is taking forever.... and wired networking seems to start after that... [18:55] I have jaunty running and I want to know how I can enable the new notification option notify-osd? [18:55] I'm downloading daily-live from cdimages. But it's damn slow... is there a mirror for these files? [18:56] will just installing the new updates do? [18:57] dudus: NO [18:57] pavs: check if you have ubuntu-desktop installed (if you are on ubuntu/gnome) [18:57] it should pull indicator-applet [18:57] yes I do [18:58] pavs: $ apt-cache policy indicator-applet [19:00] well... here goes the test [19:02] IntuitiveNipple: it doesn't look hopeful now that I'm watching 'the pot' (waiting for it to boil...) [19:02] WT-Udev: Thanks... I'll test it in a VM [19:03] I'm juggling so many bugs today I'm losing track of where I am :D [19:03] IntuitiveNipple: A note, It -really- seems to be agrivated by the -8 version of the kernel. [19:03] Oh, and it finally unlocked / [19:04] that's about 5 min, between normal lines. [19:04] hmmm [19:04] Who knows how many of /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:09.0/host0/target0:0:0/0:0:0:0/block/sda/sda1 (numbers counting down) it printed... [19:09] IntuitiveNipple: you need to drop the OPTIONS+="watch" line from 60-persistent-storage.rules. That's the one causing trouble with lvm. See comment 10 in the bug. [19:10] albert23: Thanks. I'll revisit the git commits in a few moments [19:12] this is painful... [19:12] 'waiting for the root filesystem' x.x [19:13] IntuitiveNipple: yeah, I'm using 'the kitchen sink' less raid. [19:14] That's only because it's a laptop and has a single drive. [19:14] Booting my crypt+LVM virtual machine now [19:17] I have this laptop with LVM + encryption. About 17 LVs of which 4 are encrypted [19:17] Fun [19:17] makes it easier to manage space with LVs [19:17] I only have /, /home, and another partition. [19:17] Indeed [19:18] Though I haven't felt the desire to resize and install another system... 9.04's teething pains are making me consider it (probably 8.10 next to it... but then the config files...) === MTecknology is now known as mteck-mobile [19:19] I split things down. I keep a /home/all/ where I mount file-systems for things like Media, SourceCode, VirtualMachines and so forth. [19:19] BUGabundo it say "Unable to locate package indicator-applet". just finished installing all the latest updates... === mteck-mobile is now known as MTecknology [19:24] hmm, udev on bzr is not up to date: 137-3 unreleased... [19:25] that's why it doesn't show the watch option in 60-persistent-storage.rules [19:27] IntuitiveNipple: I just told my laptop to mount the last partition. Using -7 since it has slightly less of a headache booting. [19:28] okay... best to revert to udev 137-2 then [19:29] So, testing pattern, ssh in, disable new sources, update udev, modify the rule file to remove watch, then re-create the initrds then test? [19:30] To revert, just do "sudo apt-get install udev=137-2" [19:30] ok [19:30] as soon as I can login... [19:31] :) [19:31] The VM here is just applying the updates [19:32] Miles faster than this on real 'metal' [19:32] It probably doesn't have disk-seeking to contend with [19:33] uggh it's fscking /home [19:34] ok, I've found the commit that applies the watch: f24036d [19:37] You may have a live package for me to test by the time I can login [19:42] Just once, it would be a surprise to find that developers would actually document the new keywords in their documentation! [19:43] If it isn't documented it must not be intended for widespread use. [19:45] hah... the docs don't have it, the NEWS does. [19:45] "Device nodes can be watched for changes with inotify with OPTIONS="watch". If closed after being opened for writing, a "change" uevent will occur." [19:45] No explanation of what kind of inotify it is [19:46] So... any time a close event happens a change event will be triggered... and presumably logged? [19:46] Which could then re-open and ... [19:47] fsck finally done... [19:47] hammering ssh [19:47] You know, if I could make stuff startup at arbitrary points, I'd put SSH just after / was rw [19:48] Ok, I'm in. Is there a package up for testing or should I manually do it? [19:49] Not yet, but just delete the watch and restart udev [19:49] E: Version '137-2' for 'udev' was not found [19:50] commented out repository, updating/upgrading [19:53] Here's the patch: http://paste.ubuntu.com/121162/ [19:53] save it to a file (fix-watch.patch) [19:54] then change to the udev directory (/lib/udev/rules.d/) [19:54] and do sudo patch -p3 < path/to/fix-watch.patch [19:55] If that patch applies ok, you can restart udev: sudo /etc/init.d/udev restart [19:55] I'm currently having issues downgrading [19:56] this avoids the downgrade [19:57] I have a custom version of udev from you though [19:57] It will apply to that, the reverted patch didn't touch that rule I don't think... runs off to check! [19:59] no, that revert didn't touch 60- [19:59] It doesn't seem to on mine... [19:59] 1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file 60-persistent-storage.rules.rej [19:59] darn. sorry about that. I'm rushing too much here I guess.

[20:25] There was discussion a while back on the -devel mailing list [20:31] build_test successful. Now to try it in the VM [20:33] what lesson did this illustrate: Never inotify for normal operations of a special device file... [20:35] eheh [20:36] What is interesting is, on the VM, it didn't trigger. [20:37] I wonder what testing was done? [20:37] New version has just gone up to my PPA [20:37] My laptop is already shut down... but it starts quickly. Would you prefer a test? [20:38] Yes please [20:39] Since I can't get the VM to trigger it [20:39] might have to wait a few minutes for the PPA to build the packages [20:39] Well I can certify it's horrid when it rears it's head on my laptop [20:39] on -8 it even went so far as to crash something with a dump of some kind to the console [20:43] IntuitiveNipple: echo "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/intuitivenipple/ppa/ubuntu $(lsb_release -sc) main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/intuitivenipple.list" [20:43] it has an uneven number of " [20:45] eeek [20:45] sorted. thanks.
