ionHeh. upgrade to the most recent stuff, switch from fi.archive.ubuntu.com to archive.ubuntu.com and upgrade to the most recent stuff: 164 packages upgraded, 1 newly installed, 2 to remove and 0 not upgraded. It’s almost as if the mirror were *gasp* a bit behind. :-) (I realize it’s possible a lot of packages were just published by an archive admin, though.)03:11

=== thekorn_ is now known as thekorn
mnemonikki've got a problem with booting karmic, the root device isn't recognized during booting if i specify it by uuid. It says that /dev/disk/by-uuid/... doesn't exist. If I specify it by its traditional device name it works fine, in /etc/fstab i also use uuids with no problem. Is this a problem of the linux kernel or an upstart problem? Maybe it's a problem that I'm still using murder^Wreiserfs?15:14
=== highvolt1ge is now known as highvoltage
=== highvolt1ge is now known as highvoltage
tormodmnemonikk, /dev/disk/by-uuid/.. doesn't exist after booting either?15:25
mnemonikktormod: well, that's what it says.15:26
mnemonikktormod: i can't do much in the init shell, though.15:26
tormodmnemonikk, when you boot with trad name, there is still no by-uuid link after boot?15:27
tormodmnemonikk, ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid/ should show the uuid15:28
mnemonikktormod: if i boot with root=/dev/sdaX, then /dev/disk/by-uuid/.. exists.15:28
mnemonikktormod: i've got other partitions apart from the root partition that get mounted properly, and they are specified by uuid in the /etc/fstab.15:28
mnemonikktormod: yes, that works, the link is there.15:28
mnemonikktormod: does the fs type play a role in generating these uuids?15:31
tormodmnemonikk, should not, especially since it works later15:31
mnemonikktormod: me still using reiserfs is a bit unusual, which would explain why no one else fixed this earlier.15:32
tormodmnemonikk, I guess so15:32
mnemonikktormod: i could imagine something like that the reiserfs module is not loaded and so the proper uuid cannot be generated.15:33
tormodmnemonikk, yes that would explain it. do you have reiserfs (?) in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules?15:34
mnemonikktormod: no, nothing.15:34
tormodmnemonikk, try that. the installer or initramfs-tools should add that module if root is on reiserfs IMO. how did you install?15:35
mnemonikktormod: should i add it, do update-initramfs and try again?15:35
tormodmnemonikk, yes15:35
mnemonikktormod: I think the last install was feisty, or something... upgraded since then.15:36
mnemonikktormod: I'll try that now.15:38
tormodmnemonikk, I am just checking /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hook-functions and I see reiserfs is in the "base" modules. try modprobe reiserfs in the initrd shell.15:41
mnemonikktormod: I get into the initramfs shell when I press the power button. is that the right way to do it?15:46
mnemonikktormod: and resume with ^D?15:46
tormodmnemonikk, not sure I follow, when you press the power button?15:47
mnemonikktormod: added reiserfs to /etc/initramfs-tools/modules, did sudo update-initramfs -u and tried with the uuid again, didn't work.15:47
mnemonikktormod: i press the power button when I think it's waiting for the root fs too long. Or how am I supposed to get the initrd shell?15:48
tormodmnemonikk, oh I see, it's hanging. it should time out after a minute or so.15:48
mnemonikktormod: so maybe it was just a coincidence.15:49
mnemonikktormod: hold on...15:49
tormodmnemonikk, in the initrd shell, see if reiserfs module has been / can be loaded. then check ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid there.15:50
pgranerkirkland: ping15:57
mnemonikktormod: i did a modprobe, it still can't find /dev/disk/by-uuid/xxx.15:58
mnemonikktormod: there's no "ls" in my initrd.15:58
tormodmnemonikk, then your initrd must be broken. you are not running out of disk space?15:59
mnemonikktormod: hum, no, not currently.16:01
mnemonikktormod: "update-initramfs -u" is the correct incantation?16:02
tormodmnemonikk, yes, as long as your booting the same (or one) kernel that your initrd is for, otherwise add "-k all"16:03
mnemonikktormod: ok... any idea what else I could try?16:04
tormodmnemonikk, if "ls" does not work I wonder if something is really broken. Otherwise, see if your disk device exist (ls -l /dev/sd*) and check the UUIDs on them with "/sbin/blkid /dev/sda1" etc16:05
mnemonikktormod: you mean, I should call blkid from initrd?16:06
tormodmnemonikk, yes, you can try it out in the booted system to get the hang of it, it should be the same, but we want to see if it works in the initrd16:07
mnemonikktormod: i have to try that later, have to go now. thanks for your help!16:08
tormodmnemonikk, please file a bug or question, and feel free to subscribe me to it16:08

dtchendirecthex: hi17:21
directhexdtchen, is there some documentation on how to debug a distinct lack of sound via hdmi on karmic?17:35
dtchendirecthex: not consolidated, and mostly trial-'n-error17:41
dtchendirecthex: namely, make sure it works in ALSA first17:42
dtchendirecthex: so the process is (briefly): disable PA autospawn; test the plug HDMI device using speaker-test17:42
dtchendirecthex: (and killall pulseaudio immediately after disabling PA autospawn)17:43
directhexhow would one disable PA autospawn on a temporary basis?17:43

kirklandpgraner: oh, yeah, you can't resume from hibernate if you have encrypted swap18:25
