| cjwatson | MenZa: it's somewhere between a technical limitation of ubiquity and a bug | 09:33 |
| cjwatson | MenZa: actually, the slowness is evident in d-i too, you just don't notice it so much because of the different UI structure | 09:33 |
| cjwatson | MenZa: ubiquity's partitioner tries very very hard to use the same logic as d-i's (I don't ever want to end up maintaining two different installer partitioners ...) | 09:33 |
| cjwatson | MenZa: and the way it does this is sort of the equivalent of driving the underlying partitioner around to get all the information it needs to display | 09:34 |
| cjwatson | MenZa: so the "scanning disks" stage is about the same speed as it would be to select each partition in turn in the text interface | 09:35 |
| cjwatson | MenZa: some of this should be solved by just plain making the underlying interface faster (perhaps by rewriting some inner-loop bits in C, although that's trickier than it looks), and some of it should probably be solved by smarter caching or even just utter hacks at the ubiquity level | 09:36 |
| cjwatson | MenZa: there's been a bug open about it for a good while, but it's not straightforward | 09:36 |

| liw_ | I upgraded my laptop to karmic, and the upgrade seemed to go OK. But it can't boot into the upgraded system: I get just a b&w Ubuntu logo about a second or two into the boot, and then nothing. Ideas? Could this be related to the laptop disk being encrypted? | 09:50 |
| pitti | liw_: try booting without "splash"? | 09:52 |
| liw_ | the command line in grub does not have splash in it | 09:54 |
| pitti | uh, that's not tested any more? | 09:55 |
| liw_ | perhaps I just don't know how to use grub | 09:55 |
| dholbach | holy crap - that's a lot of uploads | 09:55 |
| chrisccoulson | heh, it's going to be an interesting afternoon of updates ;) | 09:56 |
| liw_ | pitti, what should I actually do to avoid splash? | 09:56 |
| pitti | liw_: you can explicitly specify "nosplash" | 09:56 |
| pitti | liw_: however, it shouldn't start at all if there's no "splash" in the kernel command line | 09:57 |
| pitti | reading /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/init-top/usplash, anyway | 09:57 |
| pitti | dholbach: stuff piled up over the freeze :) | 09:57 |
| liw_ | if I change "quiet" to "nosplash" and then press b in grub, it blackens the screen, and about a second later shows me the bios post screen | 09:58 |
| pitti | oh, right, that's still grub 1 | 09:59 |
| pitti | hm, that sounds bad.. | 09:59 |
| pitti | liw_: is that an intel card? | 09:59 |
| liw_ | meh, sorry about that, having trouble with pidgin's UI | 09:59 |
| Chipzz | liw_: there was someone complaining about not being able to boot from a crypted partition earlier this night too | 09:59 |
| liw_ | pitti, lenovo x200s, I'll need to check the graphics chipset | 10:00 |
| Chipzz | not at all sure if it's related | 10:00 |
| pitti | liw_: if it's intel, you can try with "i915.modeset=0" to disable KMS | 10:00 |
| liw_ | pitti, yeah, it's intel | 10:00 |
| pitti | I didn't try with encrypted disk recently, that very well sounds like a potential problem source | 10:00 |
| liw_ | pitti, no change with i915.modeset=0 | 10:02 |
| pitti | liw_: does init=/bin/bash work? | 10:02 |

| liw_ | just to be sure, after I edit a kernel command line parameter in grub, is the b key the right way to boot into the system with the edited command line? | 10:02 |
| Chipzz | like I said, not sure if it's related at all | 10:02 |
| cjwatson | liw_: that should be right | 10:05 |
| cjwatson | (with grub1; it's C-x in grub2) | 10:05 |
| liw_ | hm, after minutes of waiting at the "ubuntu logo" screen, with the machine not responding to any keypressed (ctrl-alt-del, alt-f1, ctrl-alt-f1, caps lock, ...), it dropped into a busybox shell, complaining it can't see the disk (partition), named via a uuid | 10:06 |
| liw_ | unfortunately, I didn't see more details, I was pressing the power button at the time, and a second later the machine powered off | 10:07 |
| liw_ | after rebooting, the hard disk is making whining noises... I know how it feels | 10:08 |
| pitti | liw_: right, that seems it spins for the root fs and times out; cryptsetup/upstartification regression apparently :-( | 10:09 |
| liw_ | pitti, in that case, I'll need to reinstall? | 10:09 |
| pitti | liw_: you should be able to unlock the root fs in the initramfs prompt? | 10:10 |
| liw_ | pitti, how? | 10:10 |
| pitti | try "cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/yourrootdevice myroot | 10:10 |
| pitti | the value for "myroot" shouldn't matter much | 10:10 |
| pitti | since fstab should be uuid-based | 10:10 |
| pitti | but you can search for "crypttab", it shuold be somewhere in the initramfs | 10:11 |
| pitti | probably just in /etc/ | 10:11 |
| liw_ | there is no crypttab | 10:12 |
| liw_ | the cryptsetup command worked, what next? | 10:12 |
| pitti | hm, that sounds wrong | 10:12 |
| pitti | liw_: what was the root= argument on the kernel command line? | 10:13 |
| pitti | uuid or dev/mapper/myroot ? | 10:13 |
| liw_ | pitti, how do I check? | 10:13 |
| pitti | liw_: cat /proc/cmdline | 10:13 |
| liw_ | ah, of course | 10:13 |
| pitti | liw_: if its' UUID, just pressing Ctrl-D should work | 10:13 |
| liw_ | pitti: root=/dev/mapper/havelock-root | 10:14 |
| pitti | liw_: if it's name-based, you need to specify "myroot" at cryptsetup lulsOpen | 10:14 |
| pitti | "havelock"? | 10:14 |
| liw_ | hostname | 10:14 |
| pitti | ah :) | 10:14 |
| pitti | liw_: ok, so please: | 10:14 |
| pitti | cryptsetup luksClose myroot | 10:14 |
| pitti | cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/yourencryptedrootdev havelock-root | 10:14 |
| pitti | exit | 10:14 |
| liw_ | luksClose failed: Device busy | 10:14 |
| pitti | bah | 10:15 |
| pitti | liw_: perhaps just reboot, and do it again | 10:15 |
| liw_ | ack, doing that | 10:15 |
| liw_ | pitti, rebooted, waited for initramfs busybox prompt, said "luksOpen /dev/sda1 havelock-root", then "exit", immediately got back the prompt, with some preceding error messages saying the disk by-uuid doesn't exist | 10:20 |
| pitti | liw_: hmm | 10:21 |
| pitti | shouldn't udev generate those automatically? | 10:21 |
| liw_ | I would assume so | 10:21 |
| liw_ | attempting to mount the rootfs manually (just to see if it's ok), I get an error saying the mount command does not exist | 10:22 |
| pitti | bwah | 10:22 |
| pitti | liw_: I guess it's some magic mountall invocation now | 10:22 |
| pitti | liw_: does calling that do anything? | 10:22 |
| liw_ | but if I run just "mount" it lists the mounted filesystems | 10:22 |
| liw_ | mountall: not found | 10:22 |
| pitti | liw_: hm; I'm afraid this needs Keybuk now | 10:23 |
| pitti | I'm not familiar yet with the new boot process, I'm afraid | 10:23 |
| liw_ | Keybuk is not present, hmm | 10:24 |
| liw_ | I'm going to be needing this laptop to do useful stuff, so I guess I'll have to reinstall now :( | 10:27 |
| cjwatson | mountall isn't used in the initramfs | 10:34 |
| cjwatson | the initramfs mounts the root filesystem in the usual way; mountall takes over for everything else after that | 10:35 |
| pitti | liw_: hm, so if just "mount" works and displays the mounts, how can it "not exist" when you try to monut the root fs? or did you mean the device doesn't exist? | 10:35 |
| liw_ | pitti, "/bin/sh: mount: not found" -- that's the error I get | 10:36 |
| liw_ | both the device node and the target directory exist | 10:37 |
| pitti | liw_: does mount --help work? | 10:41 |
| liw_ | pitti, yes | 10:42 |
| pitti | liw_: do you have some stuff in /conf/conf.d/cryptroot which looks enlightening? | 10:44 |
| * pitti just stabs into the dark now, there's not much more I can squeeze out of reading /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-top/cryptroot | 10:44 | |
| pitti | the heart of this is to call cryptsetup luksOpen with the correct name, so that the root device appears (/dev/mapper/whatever), and the normal root mounting can go on | 10:45 |
| liw_ | pitti, that /conf/conf.d/cryptroot file contains two lines, with target=sda1_crypt,source=/dev/disk/by-uuid/.....,key=none,lvm=havelock-root in one, and s/-root/-swap_1/ for the other | 10:45 |
| pitti | right | 10:46 |
| pitti | swap shoulnd't be utterly importnat, but of course you can unlock it, too | 10:46 |
| pitti | liw_: last time I did that, I just had to luksOpen and control-d | 10:46 |
| pitti | but that was some 1.5 years ago.. | 10:47 |
| liw_ | hm, how do I unlock the swap partition? | 10:48 |
| liw_ | modifying the luksOpen command results in an error saying it's not a LUKS partition | 10:49 |
| pitti | so perhaps you don't have encrypted swap then, or it's encrypted without luks and a random passphrase | 10:50 |
| pitti | but it shouldn't really stop the boot | 10:50 |
| liw_ | it should be luks + random passphrase | 10:50 |
| liw_ | ok, starting re-install now | 10:55 |

| tkamppeter | Riddell: What is currently the standard tool in KDE for running an application as root (GUI-based sudo, like gksudo or gksu)? | 13:38 |
| Riddell | tkamppeter: /usr/lib/kde4/libexec/kdesu | 13:38 |
| Riddell | tkamppeter: also in a .desktop file X-KDE-SubstituteUID=true will make it start with the right app (unfortunately that's not in the .desktop spec) | 13:40 |
| tkamppeter | Riddell: Thanks, seems to change from version to version, there are always reports that HPLIP does not find this tool. | 13:50 |
| tkamppeter | Riddeel, is there perhaps some xdg-utils wrapper so that one does not need to add a new tool to the list for every release? | 13:51 |
| tkamppeter | Riddell: ^^ | 13:51 |
| Riddell | tkamppeter: it has always been /usr/lib/kde4/libexec/kdesu in KDE 4, although you could also use kdesudo (we set kdesu as a link to kdesudo in Kubuntu). I'm not aware of an xdg-wrapper tool, the "menu" package from Debian has su-to-root but I don't know how well t hat works | 13:53 |
| tkamppeter | Riddell: Thanks. | 14:05 |
| tkamppeter | Riddell: For me /usr/bin/kdesudo is a binary executable from the kdesudo package. | 14:07 |

| mdz | kirkland: do you have a view yet on merging eucalyptus from trunk? | 16:38 |
| kirkland | mdz: ttx and I decided to do it together, on a shared screen session on Monday | 16:39 |
| mdz | kirkland: so it's on hold until then? | 16:39 |
| kirkland | mdz: i was going to spend today trying to solve the kvm attached storage issue, testing the new iso with ubuntu13, and figuring out the cloud restart problem | 16:39 |
| mdz | kirkland: ok | 16:39 |
| robbiew | Keybuk: question, if we set console=tty6 on the kernel line, it seems to help silence the non-kernel messages at boot....but obviously redirects messages to tty6...if we did this by default, what breaks? :P | 16:39 |
| kirkland | mdz: unless you'd like me to reprioritize it above that ^ | 16:40 |
| kirkland | mdz: ttx and I agreed that it would be good to have two sets of eyes on the merge | 16:40 |
| Keybuk | robbiew: booting without "quiet" | 16:40 |
| kirkland | mdz: particularly considering that neither of us have done it before | 16:40 |
| ogra | systems that dont use 6 ttys | 16:40 |
| ttx | ... and that lots of our changes need to be dumped. | 16:41 |
| robbiew | Keybuk: we use quiet by default, so presumably anyone removing that would redirect console to wherever | 16:41 |
| robbiew | ogra: good point | 16:41 |
| robbiew | ogra: what about tty2? :P | 16:41 |
| robbiew | i suppose same arguement holds | 16:42 |
| ogra | robbiew, dropping quiet switches on the text messages in usplash if you keep splash ion place | 16:42 |
| robbiew | all I know is that it sure cleans up the fsck and apparmor and other chatter | 16:42 |
| ogra | i assume that would break as well | 16:42 |
| robbiew | ogra: I know what quiet does...I'm saying if the problem with moving the console away from tty1 is that dropping "quiet" won't work...then we don't have a problem, because a user has to edit the default line to remove quiet anyway | 16:43 |
| robbiew | so he/she could also remove the console line | 16:44 |
| ogra | so you would put it on cmdline, not tell the kernel to default to it | 16:44 |
| robbiew | right..sorry, by default I meant in the default grub line :/ | 16:45 |
| robbiew | /etc/default/grub | 16:45 |
| ogra | right | 16:45 |
| robbiew | i wonder if we could detect the number of ttys on a system during install, and then add "console=tty6" to systems with the standard setup | 16:46 |
| liw_ | is the number of ttys ever different from what we set it to during install? I guess post-install the user may change it | 16:47 |
| ogra | well, the actual number is only limited by the kernel actually ... | 16:47 |
| ogra | what we set during install (or what Keybuk sets during install of upstart) are the 6 gettys that run on ttys | 16:48 |
| Keybuk | that's irrelevant | 16:48 |
| Keybuk | console=tty6 would still work | 16:48 |
| ogra | and now that i think of it, i dont think systems with less than 6 ttys will have any prob, the kernel doesnt care where you direct the boot output | 16:48 |
| robbiew | I just think it's an easy solution to a lot of the boot messages | 16:49 |
| robbiew | that aren't kernel related | 16:50 |
| ogra | you will definately get complaints from power users | 16:50 |
| mvo_ | Mirv: hey! is lp:~timo-jyrinki/language-selector/evol_ooo still relevant/needed (sorry, I'm not fully up-to-date with language-selector anymore) | 16:50 |

| ogra | yeah | 16:51 |

| olmari | would sort-of-bug-squashing report be proper to discuss here? | 17:39 |
| Riddell | cjwatson: and having done that is there an agreed protocol for how we add people to it? i.e. should can kubuntu-council act alone or should developer-membership-board be consulted somehow? | 17:39 |
| maco | olmari: triaging, or development? if the former, #ubuntu-bugs | 17:40 |
| maco | (unless -bugs people already went "uhh....ask a dev") | 17:40 |
| cjwatson | Riddell: we would like you to define that protocol, and we'll look it over; we're having a bit of an, er, discussion about the minimum requirements, but I think there's some consensus that the application process needs to be fairly similar to the MOTU Council's, and the way you report new developers should be similar too, but you may want to vary how you approve people; you might as well start with the MC's process as a ... | 17:41 |
| cjwatson | ... guideline if that's OK with you | 17:41 |
| olmari | maco: well I'm not sure... I found out that 1) when I "eject" the usb dvd drive in karmic and reconnect it (at any later time) it changes device number | 17:42 |
| olmari | I mean when it is first on /dev/sr1, then when I take it out and put back it becomes /dev/sr2 | 17:42 |
| olmari | until sr4 is used and then havoc" | 17:43 |
| maco | olmari: so youre needing to figure out which package to report the bug against? | 17:43 |
| olmari | maco: well... that too I suppose, but generally also that there is such bug and also I have second bug related to at least dvd if not more generally to device handling... | 17:45 |

| apw | so having one of the order of a 1M is nothing to worry about? is there a size when it is to be worried about? | 18:31 |
| cjwatson | so the only issue really is that it will all be in the binary package and take up CD space and such, and you should look at the *compressed* size (changelogs tend to compress well) | 18:31 |

| liw_ | changelog.old would remain in the source package, I assume | 18:32 |
| cjwatson | the purpose of changelog.old is to avoid it all going in the binary package, which some packages want, so there's no handling to do | 18:32 |
| apw | i think this thing is wanted installed | 18:32 |
| cjwatson | there are a few packages that keep very long piles of changelog entries in that way | 18:32 |
| liw_ | my current largest compressed changelog.Debian* is 194817 bytes, so a megabyte compressed is a bit big | 18:33 |
| cjwatson | debconf for example does this, and puts the full changelog in debconf-doc | 18:33 |
| cjwatson | you might consider putting the whole thing in linux-2.6.31-doc or something | 18:33 |
| cjwatson | is it in fact a megabyte compressed? | 18:33 |
| apw | cjwatson, yeah i think the desire is to be about to get it out | 18:33 |
| apw | no it is currently 600k uncompressed | 18:33 |
| cjwatson | my desire, personally, is to have the information available without having to dig through revision contorl | 18:34 |
| cjwatson | having it in the source package would be fine by me, although if possible it would be good to have in a binary package | 18:34 |
| apw | 215k compressed | 18:34 |
| apw | ok, am looking at putting it in the binary package, but i guess its coming out of your CD size if i do that | 18:34 |
| cjwatson | consider my -doc suggestion | 18:35 |
| cjwatson | debconf does: | 18:35 |
| cjwatson | # Changelog reduction hack for debconf. Only include top 100 entries. | 18:35 |
| cjwatson | perl -ne '$$c++ if /^debconf /; last if $$c > 100 ; print $$_' \ | 18:35 |
| cjwatson | < debian/changelog > debian/debconf.changelog | 18:35 |
| cjwatson | dh_installchangelogs | 18:35 |
| cjwatson | obviously would need some modification | 18:35 |
| apw | well actually ... this is going in the binary either way ... as this is just the changelog back to 2.6.30 | 18:35 |
| cjwatson | mdz: do you object to the full untrimmed changelog only going in the binary package? | 18:36 |
| cjwatson | apw: uh, I don't get it, that's what's in the package right now | 18:36 |
| cjwatson | 33KB uncompressed back to 2.6.30 | 18:36 |
| cjwatson | what would be really valuable would be to restore the full Ubuntu history | 18:36 |
| cjwatson | which was truncated in the past, over objections ... | 18:37 |
| apw | cjwatson, there are two parts to the issue, 1) that all history back to older packages is not avalable at all | 18:37 |
| apw | and the second is that the upstream commits are not listed | 18:37 |
| mdz | cjwatson: that would be a distinct improvement on the status quo | 18:37 |
| apw | if i add upstream commits then it balloons | 18:37 |
| cjwatson | oh god, don't put every single upstream commit in | 18:37 |
| === jsalisbury_ is now known as jsalisbury | ||
| cjwatson | where did that idea come from? no other package does that | 18:37 |
| cjwatson | well, no, that's not quite true, some do have a ChangeLog where that's explicitly maintained by upstream | 18:38 |
| apw | that is the request as i got it | 18:38 |
| cjwatson | but we don't generally go out and create it, and it's pretty acceptable not to put it in binary packages when it's huge | 18:38 |
| cjwatson | mdz: surely restoring the old Ubuntu history is much more important than getting a full git log | 18:38 |
| apw | mdz, i think you were at the head of the request here, so perhaps i have miss interpreted | 18:38 |
| cjwatson | mdz: BTW, sorry, I misspoke above, I meant "do you object to the full untrimmed changelog only going in the source" package? | 18:39 |
| cjwatson | can't type today | 18:39 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: hmm, okay, reinstalled | 18:40 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: it dropped me back to the installation menu after the "Finish Installation" step | 18:41 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: no errors to tty1 | 18:41 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: i'll check the logs now | 18:41 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: http://paste.ubuntu.com/284013/ | 18:43 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: some missing modules | 18:43 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: maybe a grub-installer bug | 18:44 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: this isn't an md setup, but those changes might have regressed grub installation? | 18:44 |
| cjwatson | I only just uploaded that, I doubt it's on your CD yet | 18:45 |
| cjwatson | let's see | 18:45 |
| cjwatson | well, clearly an iscsi problem | 18:45 |
| cjwatson | Oct 2 17:40:23 finish-install: /usr/lib/finish-install.d/10open-iscsi backed up | 18:45 |
| cjwatson | ah, I see | 18:46 |
| cjwatson | I'll fix it | 18:46 |
| cjwatson | surprised that didn't break before, actually | 18:46 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: cheers, thanks | 18:47 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: any chance you could push a new server iso build thereafter? | 18:48 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: also, what can i do to finish this install by hand, and use it? | 18:48 |
| cjwatson | oh, it probably broke because partman-iscsi is now installed as standard | 18:49 |
| cjwatson | rm -f /usr/lib/finish-install.d/10open-iscsi, try the menu item again | 18:49 |
| cjwatson | I can't spin a new server ISO build afterwards, I'm afraid, I'm way over hours for this week and need a rest | 18:49 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: bingo | 18:50 |
| cjwatson | there should be some US-timezone people who can | 18:50 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: no problem, i'll poke slangasek | 18:50 |
| slangasek | cjwatson, kirkland: yo | 18:50 |
| kirkland | slangasek: can you push another iso build after cjwatson fixes partman-iscsi? | 18:50 |
| kirkland | slangasek: today's server iso build is broken until then | 18:50 |
| slangasek | yes | 18:51 |
| cjwatson | not partman-iscsi, open-iscsi | 18:51 |
| cjwatson | I fixed partman-iscsi earlier today ;-) | 18:51 |
| cjwatson | upload's in the queue, I'm sure it'll take a while to build at the moment though | 18:51 |
| cjwatson | well, "fixed", I realise now I broke this case, but before that iscsi installation was broken | 18:51 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: great, thanks | 18:52 |
