colonelqubitIs it poor form for me to triage my own bugs?04:14
colonelqubitI've had hibernation problems for a while and had an open bug for a month (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/366264)04:14
ubot4Launchpad bug 366264 in linux "[Dell XPS m1530] Resume fails after hibernate/suspend" [Undecided,New]04:14
micahgcolonelqubit: triage no, confirm yes04:14
colonelqubitWhat about marking importance?04:15
colonelqubitjtholmes was nice enough to tag the bug "hibernation", but there's no Importance level specified yet.04:16
lifelesscolonelqubit: importance is project-wide, not individual wide04:17
micahgcolonelqubit: I don't work with the kernel package, so I can't be of much help04:18
colonelqubitlifeless: yes. That's why I was wondering if I should be the one marking importance, seeing as how I kind of have a personal bias on this one bug... :-)04:18
colonelqubitmicahg: Should I ask people in #ubuntu-kernel ?04:18
micahgcolonelqubit: probably worth a shot04:19
colonelqubitmicahg: thanks04:19

hggdhbdmurray, correct16:29
plarsbdmurray: while you're at it... could I get an extension on my by a few weeks?  I've got that list I showed you down to <200 bugs, but it will take me longer than the 40 hours or so I have left16:31

G__81hi hggdh16:46
hggdhhi G__8116:48
G__81hggdh, i did some triaging of bugs and then i couldnt come online so can i apply for the membership now ?16:48
hggdhG__81, it all depends on experience -- how many you triaged, how correct was your triaging, etc16:50
hggdhG__81, if I remember correctly, you were inactive for a long time, and got back a few weeks ago16:50
G__81https://bugs.launchpad.net/~balajig8116:50
hggdhlooking16:50
G__81inactive for long time ?16:50
hggdhG__81, when I looked you up, you had pretty much no karma. Although I do not consider karma a precise indicator, having a *very* small karma shows one has been inactive16:51
G__81no karma >16:52
G__81:) i ve 43 :D16:52
sectechheh then I am screwed...16:57
hggdhheh. Well, yes, that's a pretty small karma... even I, not touching that many bugs/questions/etc in the last few months have a bit more than that...16:57
* micahg knows karma :)16:57
hggdhagain -- karma is *not* an indicator of being good on something, but it *is* an indicator of activity16:57
sectechIf I can ever kick this warcraft addiction maybe I can do something productive.16:57
hggdh:-)16:58
sectechInsufficient funds should do the trick...16:59
hggdhG__81, I can see only two bugs with actions from you in 2009...17:02
sectechhggdh,  If I end up expiring and eventually want to come back it wouldn't be a problem would it? Pending I actually start triaging more bugs?17:02
sectechNot sure when I expire...17:02
hggdhsectech, er, are you planning your death? ;-)17:03
hggdhand, ah, reincarnation?17:03
sectechhggdh,  lol no.... but I seem to have lost motivation for IT work at the moment...  I imagine it will come back in time.17:03
hggdhsectech, you would be reinstated, provided you show new work (as everybody else)17:04
sectechokay.17:04
G__81hggdh, only 2 bugs ? no it cannot be on the other day i had done nearly 5-6 bugs17:05
G__81i still remember that17:05
hggdhG__81, please give me an URL with all your bugs (and yes, I could get it myself, but please look at it as a check you know where to find it)17:08
hggdhand -- sectech -- I would also be in the same boat if I leave for a while17:09
sectechfair is fair...17:10
micahghggdh: I'm been triaging over a month, so I can go back over my Incompletes now and poke people :)17:24
hggdhmicahg, yes... :-)17:29
G__81hggdh, there are actually 3 bugs in total so what i would do is triage more bugs and then think about the next step17:31
G__81and what happened to your application ?17:32
hggdhG__81, yes, this is the issue: not enough bugs to show to the -control members you know what you are doing...17:36
hggdhG__81, I guess Brian already took care of my renewal17:36
G__81you became an ubuntu member ?17:36
hggdhyes, I did... I finally came out of the closet ;-)17:37
G__81oh great congrats17:38
hggdhthanks17:39
G__81hggdh, 5 a day should be fine right ?17:48
G__81:)17:48
hggdhG__81, yes, it should... keep in mind that it is not only the number of bugs you triage, but *how* you do it18:00
G__81yes18:00
G__81i understand18:00
G__81i am more focused on bug fixing18:01
G__81:)18:01

kklimondaok, thanks18:57
askandHi, since upgrading to Jaunty I hade a lot of crashes, someone over at #nautilus said, when I shoed him the trace of nautilus chrashed, that it looked like it was because of a pango or a cairo crash. Since these libraries are widely used in gnome this could indeed  explain that I had a lot of crashing. Is this a plausible theory?20:03
hggdhaskand, yes, it is20:12
askandhggdh: How can I find out?20:16
hggdhaskand, looking at the stacktrace...20:17
hggdhwhich functions, from which packages, are crashing20:17
askandhggdh: I'm not sure where to look really, here is the trace from nautilus http://pastebin.com/m50704da6 and another from gimp http://pastebin.com/m6a85888d20:23
=== Flare183_ is now known as Flare183
hggdhaskand, looking at it20:36
hggdhaskand, first pastebin, frame #2 is cairo20:37
bcurtiswxhi all/hggdh20:37
hggdhhi bcurtiswx20:38
hggdhaskand, it seems pango called cairo, and cairo barfed on a free()20:38
askandhggdh: okey20:40
hggdhaskand, same thing with the second BT20:40
askandhggdh: great20:40
hggdhaskand, one thing you can try if to search for a dupe on b.g.o20:41
askandWhat is b.g.o?20:41
hggdhcopy & paste one of the BTs here: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/dupfinder/simple-dup-finder.cgi20:41
hggdhb.g.o is bugzilla.gnome.org20:42
hggdhthe bug tracking system (BTS) for gnome20:42
askandah :)20:42
askandhggdh: I get "     A stack trace was found in the bug description you specified.  It appears     that the first few relevant function calls in the stacktrace are" and some function calls and then "The following bug reports  contain all 5     function calls and likely match the bug description you gave" but it shows no bugs20:47
askandBut I'll ask in #cairo too :)20:47
hggdhaskand, so there is no hit for the first BT20:48
hggdhaskand, now try the second BT. If it gets the same result, then it seems it is a new thing20:48
askandI will try, it's like firefox feels I'm on to sometthing, it crashes more than ever20:49
hggdhaskand, this is on FF? Or across the board?20:53
askandhggdh: across the board20:53
hggdhweird. Jaunty, up-to-date, no non-ubuntu packages?20:53
askandhggdh: yes, memcheck is fine to, there was no dupes on the other trace either20:55
hggdhaskand, sounds like something common (but, then, if all BTs show cairo on top, cairo is the commonality)21:03
hggdhare you running low on available memory?21:03
askandhggdh: nope21:12
askandhggdh: I am told that "crash in malloc means heap corruption means run valgrind"21:12
hggdhaskand, yes, this is quite possible21:13
hggdhso... valgrind the beast. Take a deep breath, and get something to do while valgrind runs21:14
persiaNote that it's worth checking the values being passed to malloc().  Sometimes the problem is actually that someone tries to allocate several petabytes by accident.21:14
hggdhheh21:14
persiaOne example might be failing to deference a pointer in a rarely used code path.  There are others.21:15
hggdhlooking at the BT, in this case it seems it was a call to malloc 404 bytes21:16
hggdhaskand, one command line for valgrind: G_SLICE=always-malloc G_DEBUG=gc-friendly  valgrind -v --tool=memcheck --track-origins=yes --show-reachable=yes --leak-check=full --num-callers=40 --log-file=valgrind.log <command>21:17
hggdhwhere <command> is whatever you are trying to run21:17
persiayeah, 404 bytes indicates something else is wrong.21:23
hggdhand it seems to happen on many different applications... X?21:26
persiaWhat's a bug number for this set of issues?21:32
hggdhaskand, ^^21:34
askandpersia: bug 382504 is one21:36
ubot4askand: Bug 382504 on http://launchpad.net/bugs/382504 is private21:36
persiaaskand, Could you subscribe me?  That's extra private.21:36
askandpersia: done21:38
=== smeag0l is now known as smeg0l
persiaaskand, That looks deep indeed.  You say you're getting lots of crashes in different applications  with these symptoms?  Have you tried a memcheck run?21:43
=== MTeck is now known as MTecknologyu
=== MTecknologyu is now known as MTecknology
askandpersia: yes, a memcheck sucessfully ran for >24 h without errors21:57
askandpersia: hggdh: now I have obtained a valgrind log from a gimpcrash22:05
hggdhaskand, good. Do you have a bug opened for the crash?22:06
askandhggdh: no I will file one22:07

ubot4Launchpad bug 382563 in ubuntu "Gimp crashed" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/38256322:12
askandHm, firefox, on which I run another valgrind froze now, dont know if I should kill it or wait..22:16
hggdhheh. Wait a bit22:16
hggdheven more confusing, valgrind shows a segv in gtk (http://pastebin.ca/1444068)22:19
hggdhnow I *am* confused, askand. How did you get the valgrind and backtrace?22:21
askandhggdh: hm I got the backtrace running gdb on a crashfile22:21
askandand I got the valgrind log with the command you mentioned above22:21
hggdhsame run?22:21
hggdhor from a different crash?22:21
askandfrom a different crahs22:22
hggdhah22:22
hggdhaskand, do me a favour, and please run, on  a terminal, "apport-collect -p gimp 382563"22:24
askandhggdh: it wasn't a lot that was uploaded22:29
hggdhthat's OK, the important part is the dependencies file22:32
askandok22:33
hggdhhum. You are using nvidia. Which nvidia is this?22:33

hggdhhello BUGabundo :-)22:38
hggdhaskand, can you try disabling compiz?22:38

askandhggdh: sure22:39
askandhggdh: are you suspecting compiz? :)22:41
hggdhaskand, since this happens across the board, I am suspecting either compiz or X22:43
askandhggdh: I had gnome-terminal crashed with SIGSEGV in _XSend if that might be related22:44
hggdhit might, but it is still too early to say anything22:47
askandOk, I got a trace for that too in bug 382143 , but I have disabled compiz now, I'll be back if things continues to crash22:49
ubot4askand: Bug 382143 on http://launchpad.net/bugs/382143 is private22:49
askandoh it was private too22:49
hggdhheh22:49
askandnow its public22:50
hggdhaskand, I subcribed myself, and put it back as private -- the coredump is still there22:51
hggdhlet's wait for apport to retrace it, and delete the coredump, then... back to public22:53
askandhggdh: what's in the coredump that should be private?22:54
kklimondaaskand: depends on program - passwords, emails etc. ;)22:56
askandkklimonda: ohh, yeah that can remain private indeed22:56
kklimondaaskand: basically a lot of private data22:57
BUGabundohey kklimonda22:57

kklimondaBUGabundo: nah, I listen to all kind of music.22:59
kklimondahow to get list of patches applied on ubuntu kernel?23:12
hggdhchangelog?23:14
dtchenkklimonda: there is no easily-parsed list, unfortunately. the kernel team uses git (just as most distros tracking upstream do).23:40
dtchenkklimonda: on the other hand, it is fairly readable; see kernel.ubuntu.com/git23:40
kklimondadtchen: thanks23:42
