penguin42dtchen: I triggered it on the proposed kernel on a host with just 3 totem-xine's running00:03
penguin42dtchen: And that's with the resample trivial and default-fragment-size-msec = 500:04
dtchenpenguin42: ok.00:05
dtcheni have no love for realtek or sigmatel/idt00:05
penguin42anything else you want me to try while I'm here00:06
dtchennot unless you can compile gst-plugins-good from git head00:06
penguin42sure - point me at the sources00:06
penguin42although given xine's triggering it do you think that's relavent?00:07
* maco hides her sigmatel and realtek based laptops from dtchen in case he gets the mallet00:07
dtchensure00:08
dtchenit's a linux bug, but i have no idea [yet] why none of the conexants seem to be dropping00:08
dtcheni suppose i can ask for the changes to be reverted, but we're going to break some percentage of people00:09
penguin42dtchen: What's the symptoms they see?00:09
dtchenwhat you're seeing00:10
penguin42oh I see so we have a choice in breaking one or the other of us?00:10
dtchenof course, that's always how it works00:10
penguin42dtchen: The git from here: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gst-plugins-good   ?00:17
=== Hellow_ is now known as Hellow
dtchenpenguin42: yes, but hold off on that00:19
penguin42oh, I've got it cloning anyway00:19
penguin42dtchen: My xine config says it's set for esd - although pactl list seems to show ALSA plugin00:23
penguin42dtchen: I'm going to bed in a few minutes, if there are any tests you can think of you want me to try just mail me at ubuntu@treblig.org - although I very rarely do stuff during the week so it's a lot easier if I get something tomorrow if you want a quick answer00:37
bcurtiswxhey all, anyone know why jaunty wouldn't know how to handle media from a CD drive and halt the system00:47
bcurtiswxam i missing a library?00:48
penguin42?00:48
penguin42what happens when you halt?00:48
bcurtiswxthe system doesn't work00:48
bcurtiswxi move mouse to no avail00:48
rorbcurtiswx: does this happen with all discs? (could be a bad disc)00:48
bcurtiswxi can open and close my cd drive00:48
bcurtiswxror: all disks00:49
bcurtiswxdiscs*00:49
rorand your system is fine up until the point where you put in a CD?00:49
bcurtiswxyup00:49
penguin42What did you install from?00:50
bcurtiswxi've tried data cd's, audio cd's, video DVD's,00:50
rorsounds very strange00:50
bcurtiswxi installed Jaunty i386 desktop00:50
penguin42from CD?00:50
rornext time it happens, try pressing ctrl+alt+F100:50
rorthat'll get you to a terminal at least00:50
bcurtiswxyup00:50
bcurtiswxlive CD00:50
bcurtiswxeven did a integrity check00:50
rorand try to take a copy of your /var/log/xorg.1.log (I think?)00:50
rorah OK, I don't know much about live CDs so I'll shut up now :)00:51
bcurtiswxi've had this problem before (in Intrepid) and i installed some package and everything i put into the drive worked again00:51
migbuntudtchen: i have the qosmio F50, we spoke a few hours ago.....00:51
migbuntusince i executed those comands the max sound decrease alote...00:51
migbuntui have already checked the volume and is everything in max... i think it was the comands you told to execute...00:51
migbuntui just wanted the subwoofer sound and now i barely can hear the front speakers sound...00:51
migbuntuis there anything i can do?00:51
migbuntuis there anyone how can help me?00:51
rorbcurtiswx, you'd probably be better off asking the main #ubuntu channel for support really00:52
migbuntui did report the problem here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/37416600:53
ubot4`Launchpad bug 374166 in linux "HDA intel integrated subwoofer doesnt work" [Undecided,Incomplete]00:53
dtchenmigbuntu: which commands?00:53
migbuntudtchen:  the comands you told to.... the max sound decreased...00:54
dtchenwhich commands?00:54
dtchenah00:55
dtchenyou can sudo rm /etc/modprobe.d/sound.conf00:55
dtchenthen, sudo /sbin/alsa force-reload00:55
dtchenanyhow, i'm out for an hour00:55
penguin42dtchen: Thanks for your help00:56
migbuntudtchen: echo options snd-hda-intel model=toshiba-rx1|sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/sound.conf00:56
migbuntuawk -F, '{print $1}' /sys/module/snd_hda_intel/parameters/model00:56
migbuntusudo /sbin/alsa force-reload00:56
migbuntudtchen: yes that one chould work... should i remove ....sound.conf???00:57
migbuntudtchen: thanks once again....00:57
migbuntui will restart my ubuntu... and tell if it will work...01:01
sk8ingdomI'm not sure if this is the correct place for this, but I have a problem I can't seem to find online. I have currently have two separate video cards working in jaunty each with their own x server. The problem is that when I use the menu on the right x server, it automatically opens programs on the left x server, thus rendering it useless.01:16
migbuntuit worked the sound level just is normal again... the subwoofer sound is the only thing missing... ill just wait for the solution...01:23
bcurtiswxugh, i wish general users weren't able to change status messages in bugs02:52
bcurtiswxseems semi-rare (not too rare) that users will move their bugs off of triaged or incomplete to some random status they think is more appropriate02:53
hggdhyes, that happens... So we move it back to the correct status, and (ideally) used the occasion to tell them why we did it... part of the game, I guess03:13
J_Weskerhi I need an advice about a problem with Ubuntu05:18
micahgJ_Wesker: this channel is for bug triaging, please try #ubuntu for support05:19
J_Weskerok thanks05:20

G__81hi everyone07:20
BioGuyverHi All, I think I have found a bug in the Server installation for raid disks but I would like to ask someone about it and find out more.10:13
BioGuyverIs here a good place?10:13
HewBioGuyver: Possibly #ubuntu-server. Filing a bug report on the issue is probably the best first step, then it can be investigated/triaged.10:23
BioGuyverthanks10:24
andolBioGuyver: Checking existing bugs might also be a good idea.10:25
BioGuyverandol: Where is the best place to do this?10:26
andolBioGuyver: My best guess would be in the debian-installer and mdadm10:28
andolhttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debian-installer10:28
andolhttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mdadm10:28
andolWell, the second part (mdadm) kind of assumes software raid, which I'm not sure if you are refering to.10:29
BioGuyverit is software raid and mdadm so that looks good10:29
BioGuyverI'll have a poke around in there now.Thanks10:29

dwginfuriating intel driver X bug12:14
dwg37443112:14
askandI was just about to ask about intelbug too, but bug 34999212:16
ubot4Launchpad bug 349992 in xserver-xorg-video-intel "[i945 tiling] (Needs kernel 2.6.30-rc3) Low performance due to no A17 workaround" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/34999212:16
askandIt is marked as fix released because of 2.6.30 kernel now in karmic. However I strongly think this bug should be fixed in Jaunty aswell?12:16
Hobbseeaskand: it probably won't be - uxa isn't the default, fortunately12:25
Hobbseeso it only affects those who specifically turn it on, and I can't imagine they'd backport the patches in such a case12:26
Hobbseedue to risk and such12:26
Hobbsee(afaik)12:29
askandHobbsee: Bad intelperformance affects people who don't turn uxa on too. This man writes a good conclusion on the problem http://beranger.org/v3/wordpress/2009/05/04/jaunty-kernel-2630-fixes-the-intel-video/12:59
askandAnd he is using EXA12:59
Hobbseehrm, i hadn't noticed it being that bad.13:01
askandHobbsee: I think it depends on the card too, on my intellaptop it is barely usable13:04
askandPhoronix have an interesting article to how "Intel Linux Driver Kills The Netbook Experience" http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=NzIyMA13:05
Hobbseethis is where i start to think apple has the right idea13:05
Hobbseeonly run it on a specific subset of hardware, and then you can be certain it all runs, all the time13:05
Hobbseerather than the whole "this affects some people, but not others, with seemingly the same hardware"13:06
askandHobbsee: Indeed, but haven't you noticed any signs of bad preformance in Jaunty compared to Intrepid?13:07
Hobbseeaskand: hrmm.  A couple - big pictures in firefox taking a few seconds to load, occasionally.  My video performance is streets ahead in jaunty.  Not sure on shredder, seeing as that's not official13:07
Hobbseecompiz is a little less snappy, perhaps13:08
Hobbseein alt+tab13:08
Hobbseeotherwise, graphics-wise, no13:08
Hobbsee(standard dell 6400)13:08
Hobbsee908 frames in 5.0 seconds = 181.448 FPS13:09
Hobbsee964 frames in 5.0 seconds = 192.798 FPS13:09
Hobbseehrm, which is apparently low13:10
Hobbseeapparently i don't run the highly graphics things13:10
askandPerhaps the bad performance is more noticable on already bad cards, I wouldn't think it's a very good card in my Asus EEE PC for example13:12
Hobbseeoh, i'd expect so13:12
Hobbsee(do they even have the 945gm's?)13:12
Hobbseei'm just hoping ekiga or twinkle suddenly starts working again13:13
Hobbseealthough others don't seem to have problems13:13
askandNo, it's 915 in them I think, ekiga however works fine for me13:14
Hobbseeyeah, i know it works for everyone else.  It just doens't like me :-S13:19
Hobbseedidn't test intrepid's version, so it'll be interesting to see how jaunty's goes.13:19
=== edsoncanto is now known as ecanto
lifelessHobbsee:  you know the deal; you want it to work....do thyself13:26
Hobbseelifeless: i've never been able to track down why it doesn't work.  But yes, i'll likely end up trying that route again13:27
lifelessthe voip protocols are amazingly silly13:27
Hobbseeheh, indeed.13:27
Hobbseeactually, iirc, it was more a problem with my mic going nuts.13:27
Hobbseeor maybe that was the previous time13:27
Hobbseeno, this time, it was that it wouldn't even connect.  that's right13:28
Hobbseewill have to try again :)13:28

bencrisford1bcurtiswx: try typing mount into terminal21:23

BUGabundoany cheap but relliable21:44
dtchenBUGabundo: do you really expect upstream to agree? you might want to raise it there.22:43
BUGabundodtchen: heh thanks for the input!22:44
BUGabundodtchen: I do agree log is better then linear. but it's a diff use case and many users will find it hard to use (at beiggining)22:45
dtchenyeah, well, people are going to scream bloody murder at everything in karmic, then22:46
scream.22:46
BUGabundodtchen: eheh here is mine THIS SUCKSSSS ehehe22:47
BUGabundodtchen: if I lower to ~65% its MUTE, its no use for me22:48
BUGabundoand even at 100% its lower then ibex was22:48
dtchenthat's a driver issue unless you can reproduce it w/o pa22:48
BUGabundoI can try removing auto spawn and try OSS or alsa to be sure22:49

BUGabundoit *works* for some users22:50
BUGabundolol22:50
dtchenyes, but it's known-broken for some users in 11.42 and introduces a regression for others in 12.4322:50
dtchenit's better to have known breakage than to introduce new regressions22:51
BUGabundodtchen: be glad to only have 2 dupes and so few comments22:51
dtchenwell, the problem is that this bug touches the _entire_ audio stack22:51
BUGabundoI guess you will have to have a spare kernel for those affected to whom a special kernel fixes it22:51
dtchenfrom the hardware+bios, linux, alsa-lib, pulseaudio, alsa-plugins, and apps22:51
BUGabundolike the one before release22:51
dtchenyeah, but that's a lot of overhead for me22:55
dtchenmore importantly, people using such a kernel will not get support22:55
