| dandel | i need to ask, when booting with single boot option, is the default tests one does in that supposed to not be logged in case it results in a failure? | 01:26 |
|---|---|---|
| dandel | i've ran in to a few issues when testing my acpi and such where the acpi doesn't return my display to a usable state, and when i reboot to check the kernel and system log files, i find large blocks of missing test sessions, which occurred while booted in to the single user mode. | 01:28 |
| sgodsell | hello everyone | 02:17 |
| sgodsell | is there a mkinitrd command in ubuntu? | 02:17 |
| sgodsell | how do you make the initrd file for ubuntu? | 02:18 |
| sgodsell | I know in fedora or redhat it is mkinitrd command | 02:18 |
| dandel | yes. | 02:23 |
| dandel | it's called minitramfs | 02:23 |
| dandel | *mkinitramfs | 02:24 |
| sgodsell | dandel but its not the same | 02:24 |
| dandel | it does. | 02:24 |
| sgodsell | you don't specify the kernel version | 02:24 |
| dandel | mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrdfile version | 02:24 |
| sgodsell | okay | 02:25 |
| sgodsell | I will try that then | 02:25 |
| dandel | initrdfile is the target file. | 02:25 |
| sgodsell | dandel, if you need to add a module. How do you add it? | 02:26 |
| dandel | like? | 02:26 |
| dandel | ubuntu auto detects all modules in the initrd from what i know. | 02:26 |
| dandel | only special task on certain modules, like having to blacklist ath5k to use the ath_pci module is really required. | 02:27 |
| sgodsell | oh, wait the man page said to use /etc/initramfs-tools/modules | 02:27 |
| sgodsell | so I guess I modify that file then | 02:27 |
| sgodsell | thank you dandel | 02:28 |
| sgodsell | thanks for your help | 02:28 |
| dandel | np, actually i have other issues i'm trying to fix/figure out with that ><; | 02:28 |
| * dandel really wonders why when i boot with the flag, "single" it causes all system, kernel, and etc logs to not be logged happens. | 02:29 | |
| dandel | i use single and go to the root terminal and the syslog and kern log do not get updated, and it really hampers the acpi testing (nor do i know what to fix to help on this) | 02:30 |
| sgodsell | single mode is run level 1 | 02:30 |
| sgodsell | isn't it | 02:30 |
| dandel | possibly | 02:30 |
| sgodsell | so nothing is really loaded | 02:31 |
| dandel | i was trying to run tests without xorg up and that's the easiest way to go about that. | 02:31 |
| sgodsell | do you want maybe run level 3. No graphics mode (server mode) | 02:31 |
| dandel | if i knew how to boot in to that, i would. | 02:31 |
| sgodsell | instead of single use the number 3 | 02:31 |
| sgodsell | when grub comes up | 02:31 |
| sgodsell | press e | 02:32 |
| sgodsell | for edit | 02:32 |
| dandel | just tell me the param | 02:32 |
| sgodsell | on the end of the kernel line add the number 3 | 02:32 |
| dandel | i've modified the boot params dozens of time using nano | 02:32 |
| sgodsell | you can do it that as well | 02:32 |
| mjg59 | sgodsell: Ubuntu doesn't distinguish multiuser runlevels by default | 02:32 |
| mjg59 | 3 is the same as 5 | 02:32 |
| dandel | well the nasty handling of single mode 1 is a huge issue then. | 02:33 |
| sgodsell | mjg59, oh, thats right ubuntu doesn't use sysv | 02:33 |
| mjg59 | sgodsell: No, that's nothing to do with it | 02:33 |
| dandel | especially since when during testing i sometimes can't get the monitor to come back ><; | 02:33 |
| dandel | and haft to reboot with the ctrl+alt+delete combination. | 02:33 |
| dandel | and at that point, i really need the log to figure out what happened ><: | 02:34 |
| dandel | i'm currently doing testing on bug 338701 | 02:34 |
| ubot3 | Malone bug 338701 in linux "acpi_irq is not set properly." [Medium,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/338701 | 02:35 |
| dandel | mjg59, how would i boot in to a mode where the logging daemons would start. | 02:46 |

| Kano | hi, why is lzma support not used for karmic kernel compression | 12:21 |
| pkern | There is no KMS support for ATI r500 on Ubuntu yet, right? | 13:19 |
| pkern | (I mean I fact I know Fedora already released with support for it, but still.) | 13:22 |
