| askand | Hi, I see lots of bugs about computer freeze with jaunty but all of them mentions Intel graphic cards, anyone knows if there is a freeze bug reported by someone who does not have intel? | 00:26 |
|---|---|---|
| BUGabundo | askand: I had several for 4 days with nvidia | 00:27 |
| BUGabundo | seems to have stop now | 00:27 |
| askand | BUGabundo: Did you do anything to stop it? | 00:27 |
| BUGabundo | no... just reconfigured xorg | 00:28 |
| askand | Seeing this bug on both nvidia and ati | 00:28 |
| askand | are you using propriatary nvidia drivers? | 00:28 |
| BUGabundo | hardware prb? | 00:28 |
| BUGabundo | yes I am | 00:28 |
| askand | I dont think its a hardwareproblem, I installed Intrepid instead and had no freezes since, when in Jaunty I got them a lot | 00:29 |
| askand | Does it freeze if you give the command strace gedit? | 00:30 |
| BUGabundo | if I timeout, yes | 00:31 |
| * BUGabundo goes for the kill | 00:31 | |
| askand | I made a bugreport 364524 , but I have no idea of the random freezes and the freeze we can make with strace gedit is related | 00:33 |
| BUGabundo | !ping | 00:33 |
| ubottu | ping yourself ;-) really the diodes all down my left side are sore | 00:33 |
| BUGabundo | ok im still here | 00:33 |
| BUGabundo | askand: I had to kill strace gedit | 00:33 |
| askand | ahh I see | 00:33 |
| BUGabundo | system crawld down to a potato chip | 00:33 |
| askand | do you think its related to the random freezes some people are experiencing? | 00:34 |
| BUGabundo | don't know | 00:37 |
| BUGabundo | dtchen: ping | 00:45 |
| BUGabundo | dtchen: are you here? | 00:45 |
| BUGabundo | running strace for askand, left me without sound! restarting PA doesn't fix it | 00:45 |
| Ampelbein | BUGabundo: speakers turned on? ;-) | 00:46 |
| BUGabundo | lol | 00:46 |
| BUGabundo | Ampelbein: they were, up until 15 min ago | 00:47 |
| BUGabundo | Connection failure: Timeout | 00:47 |
| BUGabundo | now I can't even connect to PA | 00:47 |
| askand | Sorry :-X:) | 00:47 |
| BUGabundo | askand: np. | 00:47 |
| BUGabundo | there goes my uptime | 00:48 |
| Ampelbein | fwiw: my system freezes with nvidia when running strace gedit | 00:48 |
| BUGabundo | of "up 1 day, 8:53" | 00:48 |
| Ampelbein | but killing strace with signal 9 from terminal gives me back control | 00:48 |
| BUGabundo | Ampelbein: and leaves me without PA | 00:49 |
| BUGabundo | Ampelbein: its not a complete freeze | 00:49 |
| BUGabundo | just loss of control | 00:49 |
| BUGabundo | atop showed no special usage of MEM, IO, or CPU | 00:49 |
| Ampelbein | yeah, something like it intercepts events. | 00:50 |
| BUGabundo | I guess I found the first bug post Final release | 00:50 |
| Ampelbein | my sound works still fine | 00:50 |
| BUGabundo | this can't be good | 00:51 |
| BUGabundo | now I can't even kill exaile | 00:51 |
| Ampelbein | trying on eeepci with intel gives same freeze, sound still working, too. | 00:51 |
| BUGabundo | :( | 00:52 |

| kklimonda | It was reported by someone else to me but he didn't have 9.04 to check it so I did it. | 09:05 |
| kklimonda | you think it is a duplicate? or what does likely-dup stand for? | 09:06 |
| pan1nx | probably there will be something related to it | 09:07 |
| pan1nx | I have a feeling... | 09:07 |
| kklimonda | I'm afraid that more people will have some subtle bugs with our python2.6.. this change to python packages location was pretty heavy.. | 09:08 |
| pan1nx | I checked for now, and there is none, but I agree with you that probably they will soon be more :D | 09:08 |
| pan1nx | kklimonda, I move it to low priority as I don't see any core components affected by it, yet... | 09:12 |

| danbhfive | hello, I'm getting a bad image error (only the internal md5sum complains). Anywhere I can report this bug? | 14:32 |
| danbhfive | er, let me rephrase: I think the UNR image is bad. Where should I report this? | 14:33 |
| Ampelbein | bdmurray: i have made some changes to your bugsquad-standard-replies, see http://paste.ubuntu.com/157223/ . | 14:33 |
| Ampelbein | danbhfive: did you compare the md5sums and noticed any difference or does the installer complain? | 14:35 |
| danbhfive | Ampelbein: the overall md5sum checks (downloaded it twice), the torrent checking process checks out. The md5sum which checks individual packages is the one that fails | 14:36 |
| Ampelbein | danbhfive: i think then the bug should be filed against debian-installer | 14:37 |
| danbhfive | Ampelbein: really? ok | 14:37 |
| danbhfive | Ampelbein: can you elevate the importance of a bug? because I think this is pretty release critical | 14:44 |

| hggdh | hum. it is not the md5 checksum that fails, but the ppp package that is missing | 14:53 |
| danbhfive | well, Ill attach what is there | 14:54 |
| hggdh | danbhfive, which image did you download? | 14:54 |
| danbhfive | I'll clarify in the bug report, but the UNR image | 14:55 |
| hggdh | danbhfive, I agree debian-installer does not seem to be correct, but I am unsure right now on where to point to. So... let's leave it for a while as d-i | 14:58 |

| davideotape | Hi guys | 16:14 |
| davideotape | Just looking at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage#Kernel%20related%20bugs , and it doesn't say what the correct kernel related package for jaunty is. I assume it's linux, so shall I go ahead and edit that in? | 16:16 |
| bdmurray | davideotape: yes it is linux since hardy-ish I think | 16:25 |
| bdmurray | davideotape: so if you could write it since Hardy that'd be ideal | 16:25 |
| davideotape | bdmurray: Thanks for that, I was just checking the package 'linux' was still being used. I've added jaunty in now, and everything before jaunty was already there. | 16:28 |

| Ampelbein | BUGabundo: but as i can't replicate i'm unable to help you fix it... sorry | 17:15 |
| BUGabundo | I know! | 17:18 |
| BUGabundo | very strange | 17:18 |
| BUGabundo | even after 2 reboots, no sound | 17:19 |
| BUGabundo | how can a strace gedit cause that? | 17:19 |
| hggdh | well, it probably did not | 17:21 |
| BUGabundo | hggdh: damn coincidence then | 17:21 |
| Ampelbein | BUGabundo: try with the alsa-info script and paste url here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems | 17:24 |
| BUGabundo | eheh | 17:24 |
| hggdh | BUGabundo, heh. If it helps any, my sound is now very low, even when I put it to max | 17:24 |
| BUGabundo | don't you think I already did? | 17:24 |
| BUGabundo | hggdh: was working fine until last night | 17:24 |
| BUGabundo | when askand was having trouble with strace, and asked for confirmation | 17:25 |
| BUGabundo | after I run it, audio stopped... | 17:25 |
| hggdh | now... there seems to be a bit to too much coincidence | 17:25 |

| mrooney | hggdh: thanks, what processor do you have? | 18:31 |
| BUGabundo | hggdh: you need to setui the applet to control the CPU | 18:32 |
| BUGabundo | its not enabled by default | 18:32 |
| BUGabundo | and kernel GURUS say its bad for userspace to set the speed! | 18:33 |
| BUGabundo | CPU _should_ always be auto sense of its need, ie, ondemand | 18:33 |
| mrooney | BUGabundo: he said it is working fine | 18:34 |
| BUGabundo | let me try to open the bug | 18:35 |
| BUGabundo | slow network... BT images | 18:35 |
| hggdh | mrooney, I have an AMD64 x2 | 18:36 |
| hggdh | BUGabundo, it is already setuid root | 18:37 |
| BUGabundo | hggdh: did you run it once in the past? | 18:37 |
| BUGabundo | $ dpkg --reconfigure gnome-applet | 18:37 |
| hggdh | BUGabundo, not since early jaunty | 18:37 |
| hggdh | and I am only watching the CPU freq scaling ;-) | 18:38 |
| kklimonda | BUGabundo: are you sure cpufreq-applet has to be setuid root? | 18:39 |
| kklimonda | oh, its selector | 18:40 |
| BUGabundo | kklimonda: AFAIK yes. it requires ROOT to change cpu scalling | 18:41 |
| BUGabundo | it would be bad if any user could change it | 18:42 |
| kklimonda | BUGabundo: it is used by cpufreq-applet? | 18:42 |
| kklimonda | i ask because it isn't setuid here anymore and cpufreq-applet works just fine (ie. i can switch governors etc.) | 18:42 |
| kklimonda | i remember that cpufreq-selector had to be setuid in the past | 18:43 |
| kklimonda | but I wonder if something changed when they moved to policykit | 18:43 |
| mrooney | it asked for my password when I attempted to change it | 18:43 |
| BUGabundo | kklimonda: strange | 18:43 |
| BUGabundo | I'll test on a clean install | 18:43 |
| kklimonda | yeah, there is a policykit entry for org.gnome.cpufreqselector | 18:44 |
| kklimonda | it would be awesome | 18:44 |
| kklimonda | one less setuid app | 18:44 |
| hggdh | anyway, the package is wrong in the bug | 18:44 |
| BUGabundo | nice | 18:44 |
| hggdh | and I am confused. Which applet are we talking about? | 18:45 |
| hggdh | cpufreq-applet? | 18:45 |
| kklimonda | setuid is for /usr/bin/cpufreq-selector | 18:46 |
| kklimonda | and i think it is used by cpufreq-applet | 18:46 |
| BUGabundo | I'm talking about CPU Frequency Scaling Monitor 2.26.0 | 18:46 |
| hggdh | yes. I looked too fast... hald-addon-cpufreq is setuid root, cpufreq-applet is not | 18:49 |
| hggdh | BUGabundo, I have v 2.26.1, not 2.26.0 | 18:50 |
| BUGabundo | its what the About says | 18:50 |

| ubottu | Launchpad bug 366225 in ubuntu "Ubuntu 9.04 Log Out broken" [Undecided,New] | 19:14 |
| james_w | wow that's a lot of attachments :-) | 19:15 |
| james_w | triciens: what method do you use to log out? | 19:16 |
| triciens | james_w: I clicked on my username in the top right corner of screen, then clicked "Log Out" | 19:16 |
| james_w | triciens: cool | 19:16 |
| james_w | triciens: is the machine in that state now? | 19:16 |
| triciens | yes | 19:17 |
| james_w | ok | 19:17 |
| james_w | please use "ctrl+alt+f2" | 19:17 |
| james_w | then "ctrl+alt" and each F key up to 7 | 19:17 |
| triciens | ok, i pressed that. Screen went black for a second but came back | 19:17 |
| james_w | and look for anything interesting | 19:17 |
| james_w | interesting would be more log messages or similar | 19:18 |
| james_w | most of them will be pretty blank | 19:18 |
| triciens | wow, that was scary | 19:19 |
| james_w | heh :-) | 19:19 |
| triciens | nothing interesting I'm afraid | 19:19 |
| james_w | damn | 19:19 |
| james_w | do you know which screen was the one that you saw when you logged out? | 19:20 |
| james_w | it will probably be F1 or F7 | 19:20 |
| triciens | i think i just got the black screen with white text that I attached to the bug report | 19:21 |
| james_w | triciens: yeah, it doesn't really matter though | 19:22 |
| james_w | triciens: I can get you back to an X session, and then you can attach a couple of other files that will be useful | 19:23 |
| triciens | okay, lets do it | 19:23 |
| james_w | if you get to a screen that has "login" on it | 19:23 |
| james_w | you should have seen some of those as you went through the F keys | 19:23 |
| triciens | so you want me to press ctrl alt F1? | 19:24 |
| james_w | yeah, that should do it | 19:24 |
| triciens | and then what? | 19:24 |
| james_w | it should say "login"? | 19:24 |
| triciens | yes | 19:24 |
| james_w | ok | 19:24 |
| james_w | type in your username and hit enter | 19:24 |
| james_w | then it will ask for your password | 19:24 |
| james_w | give that too | 19:24 |
| james_w | then you should get a terminal prompt | 19:25 |
| triciens | yes | 19:25 |
| james_w | ok | 19:25 |
| james_w | now you need to type "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart" | 19:25 |
| triciens | I can get to the prompt by pressing ctrl alt F1, and I get back here by pressing ctrl alt F7 | 19:26 |
| james_w | which will ask for your password | 19:26 |
| triciens | can i copy and paste that or do i have to remember it? | 19:26 |
| james_w | what you are doing with the F keys is changing "virtual terminals" | 19:26 |
| triciens | oh | 19:26 |
| james_w | you probably don't have a mouse | 19:26 |
| james_w | oh, hang on | 19:26 |
| triciens | hanging on... | 19:26 |
| james_w | you are talking on the same machine that has the problem? | 19:27 |
| triciens | yes | 19:27 |
| james_w | oh | 19:27 |
| triciens | lol | 19:27 |
| james_w | don't do that then :-) | 19:27 |
| triciens | it would restart PC? | 19:27 |
| james_w | I thought you were on a different machine, sorry | 19:27 |
| james_w | it would restart X, so you would lose any open windows and things | 19:27 |
| james_w | sorry about that :-) | 19:27 |
| triciens | no problem | 19:28 |
| triciens | there is another PC in this room I can use to get into this IRC | 19:28 |
| james_w | ok, please attach /var/log/gdm:0.log and /var/log/gdm/:0.log.1 to the bug report | 19:28 |
| triciens | if you give me a minute I will fire it up | 19:28 |
| triciens | how do I attach that? | 19:28 |
| james_w | from the bug webpage | 19:28 |
| james_w | there's a link at the bottom to add a comment | 19:29 |
| james_w | under that is a form to attach something | 19:29 |
| triciens | and I click that and browse, but where are these log files? | 19:29 |
| james_w | Start from "File system" on the left | 19:30 |
| james_w | then "var", then "log" etc. | 19:30 |
| triciens | done | 19:32 |
| triciens | I have to go eat now | 19:32 |
| triciens | do you think someone will be able to solve the bug? | 19:32 |
| james_w | there's certainly a lot more useful information now | 19:35 |
| change | exit | 19:35 |
| james_w | there's no obvious errors in those logs though unfortunately | 19:36 |
| hggdh | triciens, out of curiosity, can you see what you have under /var/crash? pastebin it here | 19:49 |
| hggdh | !pastebin | 19:49 |
| ubottu | pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) | 19:49 |
| triciens | hggdh: I don't have anything in the crash folder | 20:02 |
| hggdh | triciens, OK, it was worth a try -- if one of your apps had crashed, it would be there... | 20:04 |
| triciens | thanks, i will try to remember that for the future | 20:05 |
| triciens | so who fixes bugs? volunteers? Canonical? | 20:07 |
| james_w | anyone that wants to | 20:08 |
| james_w | or "no-one" if you believe some people :-) | 20:08 |
| triciens | lol | 20:08 |
| triciens | and if someone says they have fixed a bug, do other people check to make sure they have done a good job and not created 10 new bugs? | 20:08 |
| hggdh | we do try, triciens, we do try ;-) | 20:09 |
| triciens | good good | 20:09 |
| triciens | are xorg bugs seen as quite important? xorg is to do with windows and things? | 20:10 |
| hggdh | triciens, X is what gives you the graphical environment. Without X you are down to the command-line... | 20:12 |
| hggdh | and yes, xorg is what we use, and what gives you the windows, and all of that | 20:13 |
| james_w | yeah, they are important, but there are also lots of them, so it's difficult | 20:14 |
| triciens | k | 20:18 |
| bdmurray | wow, no more page loads for unmarking as privacy and security! | 20:30 |
| kees | \o/ | 20:31 |
| triciens | I've just downloaded the ATI catalyst control centre for Linux. I double click the to try to install it but I get a 'Launch Application' box asking me to choose a program to open it with. Anyone? | 20:38 |
| Elbrus | triciens: these questions are better asked in the #ubuntu channel | 20:39 |
| triciens | Elbrus, the Ubuntu channel is crazy. I have been in there. | 20:40 |
| hggdh | still, triciens, you should not expect a response for this type of questions here. We deal with bug triaging *only* here. | 20:43 |
| triciens | okay, fair enough. Didn't realise it was so strict! | 20:44 |
| triciens | back to the jungle I go.... | 20:45 |
| hggdh | heh. We have to be, otherwise we will end up flooded (er, like #ubuntu?) | 20:45 |
| dtchen | BUGabundo: pong | 21:14 |
| BUGabundo | dtchen: hi | 21:15 |
| BUGabundo | dtchen: no audio :( | 21:15 |
| BUGabundo | running a strace gedit | 21:15 |
| BUGabundo | killed it | 21:15 |
| BUGabundo | no idea why or how | 21:15 |
| BUGabundo | let me run an update apport alsa for you | 21:16 |
| dtchen | what do you mean by "killed it"? | 21:16 |
| BUGabundo | dtchen: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/366346 | 21:18 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 366346 in alsa-driver "no audio" [Undecided,New] | 21:18 |
| BUGabundo | dtchen: killed it as in, no longer works | 21:18 |
| BUGabundo | pa -k ; start--pulse ; doesn't help either | 21:18 |
| BUGabundo | pauvcontrol shows no app publsing sound either | 21:19 |
| dtchen | so you can't get pulse to work, ok. does alsa itself work? | 21:19 |
| BUGabundo | but mic to speakers *does* work | 21:19 |
| dtchen | so alsa works, ok. | 21:19 |
| dtchen | that is really quite the opposite of "no audio" | 21:19 |
| BUGabundo | haven't tried alsa yet | 21:20 |
| BUGabundo | let me give it a test | 21:20 |
| BUGabundo | duh! | 21:21 |
| BUGabundo | stupid volume controls | 21:21 |
| dtchen | right | 21:21 |
| BUGabundo | alsamixer had master at 50% | 21:21 |
| BUGabundo | but it shows at 100% on gnome volume applet | 21:21 |
| BUGabundo | setting alsamixer to 100% brings sound again | 21:21 |
| dtchen | check which mixer perspective you're tracking in g-v-c | 21:22 |
| BUGabundo | let me test exail | 21:22 |
| BUGabundo | dtchen: doesn't work | 21:23 |
| BUGabundo | no sound ... | 21:23 |
| dtchen | killall pulseaudio; pulseaudio -vvv | 21:24 |
| dtchen | play something using exaile, pastebin the pulseaudio spew | 21:24 |
| BUGabundo | G-V-C is set to HDA intel (alsa mixer) | 21:24 |
| BUGabundo | I heard some pings from pidgin for a sec, but then stop working agin | 21:25 |
| hggdh | bug 353846 | 21:27 |
| ubottu | Error: Could not parse data returned by Launchpad: The read operation timed out (https://launchpad.net/bugs/353846/+text) | 21:27 |
| BUGabundo | ok | 21:28 |
| BUGabundo | I just heard pidgin ping | 21:28 |
| BUGabundo | lol | 21:28 |
| BUGabundo | but exaile no.. | 21:28 |
| BUGabundo | let me try totem | 21:28 |
| BUGabundo | totem is working dtchen | 21:28 |
| BUGabundo | let me try exaile again from cli | 21:29 |
| BUGabundo | dtchen: and now its working | 21:29 |
| BUGabundo | guess alsamixer did the trick | 21:29 |
| BUGabundo | but why did it get out of sync with GVC ? | 21:29 |
| dtchen | good question. it's probably the age-old gnome-media bits. | 21:30 |
| dtchen | it *could* be locking in the mixer interface, but that would be suspect. | 21:30 |
| BUGabundo | I'll have to make a clean isntall for KK | 21:31 |
| BUGabundo | hggdh: you could have mention the package name in the subject | 21:31 |
| dtchen | it's difficult to say, because we're not running the latest alsa code, so we have a crackton more debugging | 21:31 |
| BUGabundo | and I still have that stupid blur sound every time I terminate my session | 21:32 |
| BUGabundo | its really bad when I'm in a public place | 21:32 |
| BUGabundo | lol | 21:32 |
| dtchen | i'm not particularly concerned with those symptoms | 21:32 |
| BUGabundo | I know | 21:32 |
| BUGabundo | im the single person to mention it | 21:33 |
| dtchen | no, it's more that ubuntu ships mismatched components in the audio stack | 21:33 |
| dtchen | until that changes, people will experience massive problems | 21:33 |
| BUGabundo | ah that | 21:34 |
| BUGabundo | so will KK have full sync? | 21:34 |
| dtchen | for audio, at least, one probably wants jaunty+1 month | 21:34 |
| BUGabundo | or is it hard past featurefreeze ? | 21:34 |
| dtchen | karmic probably will face the same problems | 21:34 |
| BUGabundo | yeah | 21:35 |
| BUGabundo | once we freeze and still bring a few stuff to fix concrete probs | 21:35 |
| dtchen | a *huge* number of bugs are wiped out simply by using the latest stable alsa userspace and pulseaudio | 21:35 |
| dtchen | a further portion is wiped out by using the pcm_lib changes that will be SRUd | 21:36 |
| BUGabundo | eheh I'll be here testing KK by then | 21:37 |
| BUGabundo | lol | 21:37 |
| BUGabundo | any new on when tool chain opens? | 21:37 |
| BUGabundo | already saw them on archive | 21:37 |
| BUGabundo | . pool... and LP db | 21:37 |
| dtchen | the toolchain is building | 21:38 |
| hggdh | BUGabundo, what package? | 21:49 |
| hggdh | BUGabundo, ah you are talking about bug 353846? | 21:53 |
