Tiibiidiii have some questions... i want to report 2 bugs to launchpad00:23
Tiibiidiibut i'm not quite sure00:24
BUGabundoTiibiidii: what are they?00:24
Tiibiidiido you know gufw?00:24
BUGabundoyes00:25
Tiibiidiii've never really used it... and i've not any serious reason to use it other than "hey, i want to setup easily a firewall"00:25
Tiibiidiithe point is00:25
Tiibiidiismb00:25
Tiibiidiineeds 4 open ports (don't remember those at the moment)00:26
Tiibiidiiso00:26
Tiibiidiii configured gufw00:26
Tiibiidiito open these ports00:26
Tiibiidiibut smb doesn't work00:26
Tiibiidiidisabled gufw00:26
Tiibiidiismb work00:26
Tiibiidiienabled gufw00:26
Tiibiidiibut leaving all ports open00:26
Tiibiidiismb doesn't work00:26
Tiibiidiito me00:26
penguin42do you get log messages to tell you what gufw is blocking?00:26
Tiibiidiithis seems a bug... but i'm not a smb expert, so maybe i'm missing something00:27
Tiibiidiiuhm00:27
penguin42most firewalls log whenever they drop a packet00:27
Tiibiidiifound it00:29
Tiibiidiiuhm... now it's empty, maybe because it's disabled from the startup (i had the bug some days ago, but only today i decided to report it)00:29
penguin42I'd try to recreate it, and check the log as samba fails; see what the log is complaining about00:33
penguin42also when you disable gufw try a reboot - it's possible that it is leaving the firewall still enabled in iptables00:33
Tiibiidiiyes... i had to boot the old and slow win xp machine with the smb share^^00:36
Tiibiidiinow i found something interesting00:37
Tiibiidiii've not enable gufw logging00:37
Tiibiidiiso that's why gufw log's empty00:37
Tiibiidiibut i've enabled ufw logging (gufw should be little more than a frontend of ufw)... but there isn't any ufw log00:37
Tiibiidiiok... with gufw disabled smb works00:39
Tiibiidiinow i've enabled gufw, its logging and 137 udp/tcp 138 udp and 139 tcp00:39
Tiibiidiias of http://support.microsoft.com/kb/204279 this should work00:40
penguin42so what does the log say is being dropped?00:41
Tiibiidiismb (via nautilus) doesn't give any errors... simply avoid display any share00:41
Tiibiidiiand the gufw log00:41
Tiibiidiinothing00:41
Tiibiidii[28/06/2009 01:38:37] ...Fine operazione00:42
penguin42and in dmesg?00:42
Tiibiidiiis fine if i paste the last 5 lines of dmesg directly here?00:42
Tiibiidiioh well... i'm doing it^^00:43
Tiibiidii[48573.070487] ip_tables: (C) 2000-2006 Netfilter Core Team00:43
Tiibiidii[48575.800776] nf_conntrack version 0.5.0 (16384 buckets, 65536 max)00:43

Tiibiidii[48575.800998] sysctl net.netfilter.nf_conntrack_acct=1 to enable it.00:43
Tiibiidii[48575.831486] ip6_tables: (C) 2000-2006 Netfilter Core Team00:43
penguin42hmm odd, I think a dmesg would normally show dropped packets wouldn't it? I'd check if the firewall is logging00:44
Tiibiidiii'm doing tail -f /var/log/gufw_log.txt00:44
Tiibiidiiand the only thing it shows00:45
Tiibiidiiis the line i pasted above00:45
Tiibiidii(before i enabled gufw it wasn't there... so i suppose logging is working fine)00:45
penguin42I don't know anything about gufw I'm afraid; I'm sure it just does iptables but you'd have to dig to see how it sets up iptables logging00:45
Tiibiidiimhn00:45
Tiibiidiido you think that posting my findings to launchpad would be a valid bug report?00:46
BUGabundo!paste | Tiibiidii00:46

BUGabundoor use pastebinit00:46
Tiibiidiii'm lazy :P00:46
Tiibiidiii'll do it next time^^00:47
BUGabundobetter do it :p00:47
Tiibiidiiwhat do you think about this btw?00:48
BUGabundono idea00:48
Tiibiidiiuhm00:48
Tiibiidiistrange00:49
Tiibiidiii opened gufw00:49
Tiibiidiiand it cleared the logfile00:49
Tiibiidii(that was 1 line... now it's empty)00:49
Tiibiidiiuhm... don't know if i remember wrong... or if the problem was solved... but now by setting a rule to allow any connection to any port, smb works as expected00:58
penguin42You really need to get it to log packets it drops; once you do that it'll be obvious which port is missing00:59
Tiibiidiiyeah00:59
Tiibiidiithe problem is that i can't find not even some iptables log01:00
Tiibiidii(now looking into messages)01:00
penguin42maybe look at the settings in gufw - it might be set to drop or reject but not log01:00
Tiibiidiiuhm... gufw doesn't have many options^^01:01
Tiibiidii(tipical of gnome apps indeed)01:02
Tiibiidiithis could be a simple issue of not allowing a single port... you aren't aware of any other than 137/138/139?01:05
Tiibiidii(ah, opened even 445)01:06
* penguin42 isn't01:06
Tiibiidiiuhm... this is interesting: http://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=77052601:12
Tiibiidii"If I turn the firewall ON I can continue to access the Maxtor NAS, but the home workgroup and XP Home system do a disappearing act."01:12
Tiibiidiicould be a windows xp problem01:12
Tiibiidii"I've tried again and while I can indeed access any NAS or windows share, it fails if I try to do so through places > network in nautilus."01:13
Tiibiidiior instead could be a nautilus problem01:13
penguin42I doubt nautilus is interacting with the firewall - it could be01:14
Tiibiidiimhn01:19
Tiibiidiithe point is... the guy on that forum says that browsing the smb shares01:19
Tiibiidiiis different from connecting to a smb share01:19
Tiibiidiiand indeed01:19
Tiibiidiihe seems right01:20
Tiibiidiii managed to connect01:20
Tiibiidiiby avoiding browsing01:20
Tiibiidiiso01:20
Tiibiidiii guess nautilus is using some other port for discovering the smb share... some port different from the smb ones01:20
Tiibiidiithis mean that this wasn't a gufw issue... maybe01:21
Tiibiidii(not having a decent logging may be another bug on itself)01:21
penguin42anyway, time to go - as I say, get logging configured and it should be easy to find01:26
bcurtiswxwho here knows what PPA i can use to test the new intel driver... this would be for jaunty01:26

Craigy90hi all, I have a Q:02:08
Craigy90which package would a bug about the login screen be filed against?02:08
AmpelbeinCraigy90: depends on your installation, most likely it's gdm.02:11
Ampelbeinwhen using gnome that is02:11
Craigy90yeah, sorry... gnome02:11
Craigy90ok, thx ampelbein02:11
Tiibiidiiah, for the record: i think of have found what's the problem... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=19054202:30

_dcravenSo.. I'm looking for an package upgrade bug to repackage if there is a newer version upstream compared to the version in the ubuntu repos. Many of these (in LP) are assigned to debbugs meaning the intent is that they are to be upgraded in Debian, then synced. Are we supposed to ignore these?03:26
_dcravenActually this question might be better asked in #ubuntu-motu I suppose.03:28

lesshastehi all20:38
BUGabundohey lesshaste20:39
lesshasteI have this quite odd bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-power-manager/+bug/389930 and it seems we have hit a brick wall.. any ideas?20:39
ubot4Launchpad bug 389930 in grub "grub menu skipped after shutdown" [Low,New]20:39
bcurtiswxhi lesshaste Bugabundo20:39
lesshastehi bcurtiswx BUGabundo20:39
bcurtiswxlesshaste: doesn't shutdown -h now go into hibernate?20:45
lesshastebcurtiswx: it appears not20:46
lesshastebcurtiswx: but that's an interesting suggestion20:46
bcurtiswxlesshaste: hibernate will shutdown like a regular shutdown and save your current state to your RAM... then upon load it will loadup like it does but skip grub since it expects to go into the saved state20:47
bcurtiswxlesshaste: its not a bug.  if you want to shutdown you use the -r option20:47
lesshastebcurtiswx: well... the thing is that "hibernate" from the dropdown menu doesn't behave like shutdown -h now ... let me try it now so I can describe the difference20:47
lesshaste(not on this computer :) )20:48
bcurtiswxlesshaste: why are you using -h anyways?20:48
bcurtiswxand -h doesn't hibernate im sorry20:48
lesshastebcurtiswx: I just wanted the dropdown "shutdown" to work but the bug replier said test shutdown from the command line20:48
lesshasteno problem20:49
bcurtiswxlesshaste: ok, so you ARE using hte shutdown menu on the taskbar20:50
bcurtiswxand that bug happens20:50
bcurtiswxok20:50
lesshastebcurtiswx: it's exactly the same when I use the menu and when I do "shutdown -h now" from the command line20:50
lesshasteshutdown from the menu that is20:50
bcurtiswxyeah, the command line "shutdown -r now" works as expected.. right?20:50
lesshasterestart from the menu is exactly like "shutdown -r now" and yes it works as expected and loads grub20:51
bcurtiswxyes yes20:51
bcurtiswxsorry, wow ive lost it20:51
lesshaste:)20:51
bcurtiswxtry shutdown -P now20:52
bcurtiswxthat should be how the "shutdown" button in the taskbar works20:52
bcurtiswxsee if that works20:53
lesshastetrying it now20:53
lesshasteit shutdown fully as before and on restart it didn't load grub20:54
bcurtiswxkick it....20:55
bcurtiswxno no no.. just kidding20:55
lesshaste:)20:55
lesshasteodd isn't it20:56
bcurtiswxdoes the "3...2...1" come up sayings its going to the grub menu?20:56
lesshasteno20:56
lesshastenot visibly at least20:56
lesshasteit would be great if there were a log that told you about grub loading20:56
lesshastebut I can't find one20:56
lesshastedmesg never mentions grub20:56
bcurtiswxone sec, im gonna check my dmesg20:57
lesshasteok20:58
bcurtiswxsomeone stop me now if this is a no no.. but i can't think of why.. but attach your /boot/grub/menu.lst to the bug report21:00

bcurtiswxive always heard bad things about LVM21:26
BUGabundobcurtiswx: you shouldn't21:26
charlie-tcaI like the way it lists the kernels21:27
bcurtiswxdidn't grub 1 do that?21:28
charlie-tcaNot the same way. This is different, easier for me to read all of them21:28
bcurtiswxah, ok21:29
bcurtiswxwas the bootup faster?21:30
charlie-tcamuch21:30
BUGabundocharlie-tca: all of them?? how many do you have?21:30
charlie-tcaI would guess about half, even on this 64bit system. It's only a 2.2GHz21:30
BUGabundocharlie-tca: we want bootcharts NOW21:30
bcurtiswxthe only thing i didn't like about 64 bit was java and flash problems21:30
bcurtiswxi use java a lot21:31
bcurtiswxwith yahoo games21:31
charlie-tcaSeem to have about 8 9.04 kernels, 2 karmic, 6 8.1021:31

hggdhbcurtiswx, pong (a bit delayed, I guess)23:11
bcurtiswxhggdh: nbd, just wondering how i test out that idle you said was better than what 2.27.3 has?23:12
bcurtiswxidk the exact url to us23:12
bcurtiswxe23:12
hggdhok.23:12
hggdhseems a bit more complex than I would like, but let me get to what I found so far23:13
hggdh1. you need to download the git trunks for (at least) empathy, telepathy-idle, and telepathy-glib23:14
hggdhthe projects are all at http://git.collabora.co.uk/23:14
hggdhas you select one of the links, the new page will tell you what is the GIT URL to be used23:15
hggdhso, for example, the telepathy-glib git URL is git://git.collabora.co.uk/git/telepathy-glib.git23:16
hggdh2. Now, open a terminal, and get somewhere where you can download the sources; under this directory, run: git clone git://git.collabora.co.uk/git/telepathy-glib.git23:16
hggdh(following the glib example)23:17
=== Ampelbei- is now known as Ampelbein
hggdhthis will clone (i.e., make an exact copy) of the GIT repository from Collabora.23:17
hggdh3. repeat for the other sources23:17
hggdhnow, go to the glib directory, and run ./autogen.sh && configure && make && sudo make install23:18
hggdh4. repeat for the other directories23:18
hggdhthis will install all new empathy/telepathy under /usr/local (so, without clobbering the current official binaries)23:20
hggdhbcurtiswx, did I overwhelm you already?23:20
BUGabundodentichat23:20
bcurtiswxwow23:21
bcurtiswxthen how do i use the new ones?23:21
hggdhthis is what I did not like so far, but I did not have time this weekend to look into it (i.e., RTFM)23:23
hggdhwhen you run /usr/local/empathy (the new one), empathy still calls on the official telepathy modules off /usr/lib (and *not* /usr/local/)23:23
bcurtiswxhmmm23:24
hggdha quick hack -- real quick, and emphasys on hack -- is to start /usr/local/libexec/telepathy-idle first: /usr/local/libexec/telepathy-idle &; /usr/local/bin/empathy &23:27
hggdhthen you are good to go. Of course, RTFM should help, and I intend to read the docs soon23:27
Ampelbeinbcurtiswx, hggdh: if it helps: https://edge.launchpad.net/~amoog/+archive/empathy-daily currently has empathy and telepathy-glib daily builds, telepathy-idle joins soon.23:28
hggdhAmpelbein, as usual, you are a big help :-)23:28
hggdhbcurtiswx, ^^ much easier to just install Ampelbein's packages...23:29
Ampelbein;-)23:29
Ampelbeinunfortunately the build queues are a bit long, so telepathy-idle will not be published soon23:30
hggdhpart of the game, Ampelbein. I will probably use your packages, and keep on with the -idle git, since I want to look at some of the things it does (or does not, yet)23:32
Ampelbeinhggdh: are you on i386?23:32
Ampelbeinif so, i can provide you with telepathy-idle debs.23:33
Ampelbeinhggdh: also, which other telepathy-* packages would be useful for a daily? I'm working on getting -farsight there already.23:34
hggdhAmpelbein, I run on AMD64... For the other telepathy packages, I am not sure, but Jabber, MSN, and Yahoo certainly will be useful. Personally, -idle is the important one if I am going to move.23:41
hggdhAmpelbein, BTW, congrats on you making it to MOTU :-)23:42
Ampelbeinhggdh: thanks! I will have a look at the other telepathy libraries.23:43
bcurtiswxampelbein... you're awesome23:51
bcurtiswxcan you let me know when idle makes it in?23:51
