| mathiaz | kees: ok - so it's just random in which drives will be picked up to assemble the drive | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| mathiaz | kees: what I don't understand is why it decided to auto-sync | 00:00 |
| kees | mathiaz: I doubt it's random, but I haven't investigated the mdadm logic that surrounds the choices. | 00:00 |
| kees | mathiaz: because it identified both drives as belonging to the same RAID, I assume. | 00:00 |
| kees | mathiaz: but yes, this is why it is a potentially dangerous situation. | 00:01 |
| kees | that said, there is value for some folks to have their system boot no matter what | 00:01 |
| mathiaz | kees: right - I don't question that. | 00:01 |
| mathiaz | kees: so that is not a regression from jaunty? | 00:01 |
| kees | mathiaz: I don't think so, no. | 00:03 |
| kees | mathiaz: it might make an interesting exercise to map the behavior of every failure flow. | 00:03 |
| mathiaz | kees: what does "md1 : inactive sda2[0](S)" mean? | 00:13 |
| mathiaz | kees: the (S) status particularly? | 00:13 |
| mathiaz | kees: I get that once I boot with a degraded md1 array - and swap isn't mounted anymore | 00:13 |
| kees | mathiaz: hrm | 00:14 |
| kees | "stopped" I think | 00:14 |
| * kees checks | 00:14 | |
| mathiaz | kees: you're right | 00:15 |
| kees | ah, where'd you find it? | 00:15 |
| mathiaz | kees: doing a mdadm manage --run /dev/md1 makes it work again :) | 00:16 |
| kees | ah, no, I lied, it means "spare". | 00:16 |
| kees | $ fgrep '(S)' * | 00:16 |
| kees | md.c:seq_printf(seq, "(S)"); /* spare */ | 00:16 |
| mathiaz | kees: so sda1 was treated a spare drive? | 00:16 |
| mathiaz | kees: s/sda1/sda2/ | 00:16 |
| kees | right, iiuc, the array was stopped, and there was a single disk. since it's not active, it's spare. | 00:17 |
| kees | (disk is in good shape, online, and has the md uuid) | 00:17 |
| mathiaz | kees: hm - what could have made it stopped? | 00:17 |
| mathiaz | kees: I've never manually stopped any of the array | 00:18 |
| kees | never getting the second drive, I assume | 00:18 |
| mathiaz | kees: hm - so md1 is used for swap | 00:18 |
| mathiaz | kees: while md0 is used for / | 00:18 |
| kees | mathiaz: this is the other case of degraded: the missing drive does _not_ come back on its own | 00:18 |
| mathiaz | kees: I think I saw that when I booted in degraded mode | 00:19 |
| kees | you'll need to mdadm -a /dev/md1 /dev/sdb2 to get it back (assuming sdb2 is the missing drive) | 00:19 |
| mathiaz | kees: I guess that md0 is forced to run when I said to boot in degraded mode | 00:19 |
| kees | yeah | 00:19 |
| mathiaz | kees: but md1 is not - which leads to swap not beeing mounted when booted from a degraded raid | 00:19 |
| kees | the degraded raid stuff is strictly for the rootfs | 00:19 |
| * kees nods | 00:19 | |
| kees | same is true for other partitions. | 00:19 |
| kees | it's still-to-be-implemented. | 00:20 |
| mathiaz | kees: ok - and stopped raid array are persistent accross reboot | 00:20 |
| kees | mathiaz: something in md does appear to "remember" a stopped state, yes. | 00:20 |
| mathiaz | kees: allright then. All of this makes senses then. | 00:20 |
| kees | mathiaz: *whew* :) | 00:21 |
| mathiaz | kees: the only bug I've found is bug 462258 | 00:21 |

| mathiaz | kees: which is only happening in the install | 00:21 |
| * kees nods | 00:21 | |
| kees | I would agree after playing with raid this afternoon | 00:21 |
| mathiaz | kees: doing a dpkg-reconfigure mdadm and choosing to boot from the degraded array correctly sets the option in the initramfs configuration fiule | 00:21 |
| kees | right | 00:22 |
| mathiaz | kees: that's gonna make the release note even easier - after installation run dpkg-reconfigure mdadm and select *again* the option to boot from a degraded mode | 00:23 |
| kees | yeah | 00:23 |
| kees | sounds right to me | 00:23 |

| ubottu | Launchpad bug 462692 in ubiquity "Ubiquity does not finish installation on PAE kernels" [Medium,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/462692 | 01:15 |
| cjwatson | the dup is right, but I'd like to work out why it hit the PAE codepath | 01:16 |
| cjwatson | ara's system in 462692 just has plain buggy DMI information, as far as I can see | 01:16 |
| cjwatson | if such bugginess is widespread on devices where people might install moblin-remix, then I think we perhaps ought to respin that too | 01:17 |
| slangasek | lool was ambivalent on a respin; I've launched one now, with the DVDs out of the way | 01:20 |
| lool | Thanks | 01:20 |
| slangasek | should be up for testing in < 30min | 01:22 |
| plars | cjwatson: I just got home, gotta chase my kids to bed and then I can get it for you | 01:25 |
| cjwatson | thanks | 01:26 |
| cjwatson | installing the PAE kernel is not a fatal error in and of itself; it's only fatal in combination with this other bug | 01:26 |
| cjwatson | so we can tune that at relative leisure | 01:27 |
| cjwatson | if you do have broken DMI information, Evan and I were just discussing a possible improved heuristic | 01:27 |
| lool | plars: ^ the idea is to have more robust DMI parsing | 01:35 |
| cjwatson | specifically we were thinking that we really only need to resort to DMI parsing at all if /proc/meminfo claims that you have 3GB (maximum supported by the -generic kernel) | 01:36 |
| cjwatson | or perhaps within some threshold of that, to account for stolen video memory or whatever | 01:36 |

| Roey | hello all | 03:15 |
| Roey | I've been referred there by Riddell about this issue I'm having after having installed Karmic (64-bit) on my raid1 system. | 03:16 |
| Roey | I used the standard CD (I assembled the array and mounted the drives off a livecd, then started the install process and specified /dev/md0 and /dev/md1 for /boot and /, respectively) | 03:16 |
| Roey | I installed the 64-bit Karmic 9.10 dailybuild from 20091027 or so | 03:16 |
| Roey | On bootup, the kernel dumps me to a busybox/ash shell after complaining it cannot find /. This comes off a stock installation of Kubuntu 9.10 (karmic koala). I have the output of 'blkid' and contents of 'grub.cfg' right here: http://pastebin.com/f6efcbf2c | 03:17 |
| Roey | I use softraid1; /dev/md0 hosts /boot and /dev/md1 hosts /. And I used the standard CD (I assembled the array and mounted the drives off a livecd, then started the install process and specified /dev/md0 and /dev/md1 for /boot and /, respectively) | 03:17 |

| Keybuk | the problem is ending up with multi-metabyte files | 14:46 |
| Keybuk | ie. to read ahead, you have to read 8MB of pack file to tell you what to read :p | 14:46 |
| ion | Do they contain continuous chunks of \0s? In that case, an apparent 8 MB file could take a lot less on the disk when written as a sparse file. | 14:47 |
| ion | And therefore could be read a lot faster. | 14:47 |
| superm1 | slangasek, for some reason i'm missing BT to all my channels last night but see a "?" from you in #ubuntu-mythtv-dev. was there something you needed answered? | 14:59 |

| Mamarok | highvolt1ge: congratulations :) | 15:34 |
| ion | keybuk: Ok, writing a sparse file wouldn’t help; the holes aren’t long enough in the pack format. But how about gzipping? My 614 kB pack gets compressed to 45 kB. | 15:34 |
| ion | keybuk: And gzipping such a small file presents *very* low overhead. | 15:35 |
| ion | keybuk: That is, even if the limit is raised again. | 15:36 |
| highvolt1ge | thanks Mamarok! | 15:36 |
| Keybuk | ion: cost of gzip is a cost | 15:36 |
| Keybuk | the whole point is to be as fast as possible | 15:36 |

| corp186 | is there an irc channel or some other forum I can ask in? | 17:50 |
| stochastic | who is the release manager for 9.10? | 17:50 |
| stochastic | corp186, #ubuntu-motu is pretty good with cdbs stuff | 17:51 |
| corp186 | stochastic: thanks, I'll ask there | 17:51 |
| sebner | stochastic: slangasek it is | 17:51 |
| ct529 | the new ubuntu site front page is broken on firefox 3014 on kubuntu 904 64 bit. Who should I inform? | 17:52 |
| stochastic | slangasek, I really don't mean to be rude by asking this, but how much longer can Ubuntu Studio users expect to wait before their ISOs are published? We're getting a growing number of enquiries across all levels of communication about this. | 17:54 |
| dojo | hi guys, just wanted to say thanks to any devs in here. 9.10 has a noticeable speed boost :D | 17:54 |
| oliver3 | o0o0o0o 9.10 is out :D | 17:56 |
| oliver3 | Seriously hope this upgrade doesn't take forever | 17:58 |
| oliver3 | couldn't even download the release notes <_< | 17:58 |
| oliver3 | Perhaps another time | 17:58 |
| oliver3 | xD | 17:58 |
| cjwatson | stochastic: as far as I can see, they've already been published | 18:01 |
| stochastic | cjwatson, there's no image at http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntustudio/releases/9.10/ or final torrent at http://torrent.ubuntu.com/ubuntustudio/releases/karmic/ | 18:02 |
| stochastic | cjwatson, where is it that they're published? | 18:02 |
| cjwatson | /ubuntustudio/releases/9.10/ exists on the master machine | 18:03 |
| cjwatson | if they aren't showing up on cdimage, it's due to some kind of release-induced lag | 18:03 |
| cjwatson | which is unfortunate, but is more a sysadmin kind of thing than anything the release manager can influence directly ... | 18:04 |
| cjwatson | elmo: ^- is cdimage just hammered? | 18:04 |
| stochastic | that doesn't quite explain the lack of listing on the torrent website | 18:04 |
| elmo | cjwatson: yes, I'll bring up another cdimage machine this evening | 18:05 |
| elmo | but it doesn't explain it not being on magellanic | 18:05 |
| stochastic | here: http://torrent.ubuntu.com:6969/ Ubuntu Studio is still listed as RC | 18:05 |
| cjwatson | mm, I'll look at that | 18:06 |
| cjwatson | elmo: it's in the torrent tree on antimony | 18:09 |
| cjwatson | elmo: /srv/cdimage.ubuntu.com/www/torrent/ubuntustudio/releases/karmic/release/alternate/ | 18:10 |
| elmo | cjwatson: ok | 18:10 |
| cjwatson | (and has been for nearly five hours, FWIW) | 18:10 |
| elmo | syncing now | 18:11 |
| elmo | not sure what happened to the previous sync | 18:11 |
| elmo | well then bounce the tracker | 18:11 |
| cjwatson | lamont: can we have lucid buildd chroots, please? | 18:13 |
| Mirv | thanks everyone. even though a lot happened at quite last minute, I18N turned out great after all, thanks for all the fixes like Michael fixing stuff I expected only for lucid :) | 18:14 |
| Mirv | this is a great base to do the LTS (regarding this area), and the LTS schedule is such that everything does not have to be done at the last minute | 18:15 |
| stochastic | cjwatson, so should this be fixing itself now or is there more waiting to be done? | 18:15 |
| cjwatson | stochastic: I don't think there's anything more the release team can do; I don't know if there's more that our sysadmins need to do | 18:16 |
| lamont | cjwatson: meh. | 18:16 |
| lamont | ok | 18:16 |
| stochastic | cjwatson, okay I'm not really sure of your internal structure - I'm relatively new on the ubuntu studio team. I just still don't see any torrent or iso. Is there any direction I should take this? | 18:18 |
| cjwatson | you've done the right thing by reporting it | 18:18 |
| stochastic | now I sit and wait | 18:18 |
| stochastic | okay thanks guys | 18:18 |
| cjwatson | stochastic: I expect that this will effectively sort itself out once things recover a bit from load, but unfortunately I can't give you a timeline | 18:18 |
| stochastic | yeah, that's expected | 18:19 |
| * cjwatson publishes ports CDs, just to contribute to load ;-) | 18:19 | |

| cjwatson | I don't know exactly when we'll start them building, but might as well start uploading | 18:25 |
| cjwatson | pitti: you're welcome | 18:25 |
| cjwatson | well, actually I got mthaddon to do it, but :) | 18:26 |

| stochastic | cjwatson, the iso files at http://torrent.ubuntu.com/ubuntustudio/releases/karmic/release/alternate/ give Forbidden errors and the torrent files don't have any peers with the file. | 18:32 |
| cjwatson | elmo: ^- those files are mode 644 on antimony - do you know why they're Forbidden on torrent.u.c? | 18:38 |
| elmo | probably because the tracker hadn't restarted yet | 18:38 |

| elmo | torrent.u.c is there for torrent, not http | 18:40 |
| stochastic | torrent is active in my Deluge and no peers have the file | 18:40 |

| zul | pitti: yeah its on my list today to answer them | 18:44 |
| elmo | stochastic: I don't have any peers but I see other leechers | 18:45 |
| elmo | stochastic: I think once someone completes it should be good | 18:45 |
| stochastic | elmo, nobody is downloading the file, It's been sitting a 0mb/s for five minutes now | 18:46 |
| stochastic | try the 64bit for a more dramatic example. | 18:46 |
| elmo | stochastic: like I said, when I download it, I see 2 people downloading | 18:47 |
| stochastic | elmo, okay, I'll trust you. off I go for the morning coffee | 18:47 |
| stochastic | thanks. | 18:48 |
| elmo | stochastic: well I may be wrong, but AFAICS it should work and I've done everything I would normally do to get a missing file into the torrent | 18:48 |

| elmo | whereas I can resync a 3rd from the master | 19:00 |

| jdong | lol how on earth does one sync to the iPhone 3.x?? | 21:43 |
| TheMuso | jnassifg: Thats hardly surprising, considering the timeframe that the 3.0 firmware was released, and the state of Ubuntu development and upstrea development for iphone support at the time. | 21:43 |
| jdong | both the Touches and iPhones even when jailbroken won't sync | 21:43 |
| lifeless | ccheney: I'm not sure | 21:43 |
| jdong | (we don't know how CoreFP generates the LLVM-obfuscated hashes yet, AFAIK) | 21:43 |
| joaopinto | is audio testing performed at some scale with a predefined range of tests and hardware ? | 21:44 |
| sebner | jdong: what's why I have to use win7 for itunes :( | 21:44 |
| jnassifg | ubuntu should have waited a few days for the ff update | 21:44 |
| jdong | jnassifg: FF will be updated.... | 21:44 |
| sebner | jnassifg: why? It'll come through updates | 21:44 |
| jdong | that's always the case. | 21:44 |
| TheMuso | joaopinto: I believe so, there is tests done on hardware that Ubuntu will ship on, and then there is the hardware of the devs. | 21:44 |
| jnassifg | so what gets edited now instead of menu.lst? | 21:46 |
| jdong | sebner: I think it's a fair bet to say at this point that Apple music players should no longer be expected to sync with non-iTunes | 21:46 |
| joaopinto | TheMuso, is there any data about that ? | 21:46 |
| jnassifg | in grub2 | 21:46 |
| jdong | sebner: the way that Apple is leveraging LLVM to obfuscate the process is making it prohibitively hard to reverse engineer | 21:46 |
| jdong | and I believe usbmuxd syncing on iPhoneOS (non-DFU) is still SSL-encrypted | 21:46 |
| jdong | (disclaimer: I'm still a happy iPhone user) | 21:47 |
| sebner | jdong: ACK, normal ipods work(ed) but Touch and phone is horrible (I have a touch) | 21:47 |
| jdong | sebner: Apple can change that at any moment too :( | 21:47 |
| jdong | sebner: fortunately iPods (non-Touch) right now ignore much of the iTunesDB hashing. | 21:47 |
| jdong | sebner: but the iPhoneOS-verified hashing algorithm is crazy enough to take random conditional branches, scrub memory every couple operations, .... | 21:48 |
| sebner | jdong: heh, iTunes for linux ftw if they can't stop haXX0ring the hashing | 21:48 |

| Mez | anyone around can do me a favour ? | 22:05 |
| Mez | pastebin the output of mount | grep swap | 22:06 |
| ajmitch | that would depend on the favour | 22:06 |
| Mez | ajmitch: probably missed it with the netsplit | 22:07 |
| Mez | pastebin the output of mount | grep swap | 22:07 |
| * ajmitch has no output for that | 22:07 | |
| Mez | ajmitch: and sudo lsof | grep swap | 22:07 |
| * ajmitch has no output for that | 22:07 | |
| Mez | no swap ? | 22:07 |
| ajmitch | lsof does list kswapd but nothing else | 22:08 |
| ajmitch | however, swapon -s does list a partition in use for swap | 22:08 |
| ajmitch | Mez: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/304606/ for the 3 commands | 22:09 |
| Mez | weird that it doesnt show in mount anymore | 22:11 |
| ajmitch | a little strange | 22:11 |
| ajmitch | but it's the same on jaunty | 22:12 |
| ajmitch | looks to have been like this for awhile - I just checked on a lenny install | 22:13 |
| Mez | lol - probably didnt notice as I wasnt looking for it before. | 22:13 |
| Mez | I recently had it bitching at me cause I have "encrypted" swap | 22:13 |

| mneptok | TheMuso: yes, given that user's prior behavior | 23:04 |
| nalioth | that wasn't about xchat | 23:04 |
| TheMuso | mneptok: Fair enough then. | 23:04 |
