dtchenok, seriously, this is becoming ridiculous00:03
BUGabundodtchen: ?00:04
dtchenjust about two of every three "no sound" bugs coming in are caused by people running Jaunty's kernel in Karmic due to some grub-conffile-not-being-updated-properly snafu00:04
BUGabundo:)00:05
dtchenon one hand, it's pretty simple to script: it just looks mismatched DistroRelease and ProcVersionSignature00:05
BUGabundohow did that escape beta?00:05
BUGabundolol00:05
bdmurraydtchen: I've done a dist-upgrade today and didn't see that.  Do you have any more information?00:06
dtchenon another, it is really just a waste of my time00:06
dtchenbdmurray: I don't have any more00:06
dtchenbut, I can just sling bugs your way00:06
dtchenmy gmail account is cluttered with them00:06
bdmurrayI've seen some of them00:06
BUGabundobdmurray: users on 2.6.28  upgradng to karmic don't get grub to boot from 2.6.3100:07
BUGabundothat's the result of the bug00:07
BUGabundoI still don't get why we aren't pushing grub-pc00:07
BUGabundowhen are we expected to upgrade it? next cycle?00:07
MsMacoBUGabundo: but not ALL upgraders are hitting it00:08
MsMacoBUGabundo: thats whats got bdmurray  and i confused. we both upgraded and havent hit it00:08
BUGabundolet me guess: diferent pockets enabled :)00:08
MsMacos/i/me/00:08
dtchenI wonder what FS type is being used.00:08
dtchenMsMaco: may I bother you to stick something in the forums shortly?00:09
dtchensticky*00:09
MsMacoaye00:10
MsMaconp00:10
* MsMaco scowls at laptop lid00:10
MsMacostay open!00:10
MsMacodtchen: can i pxe boot a karmic i386 install from your laptop tonight?00:10
MsMacothis laptop has to go get fixed and the one i'll be switching the hard drive into cant run the amd64 installed on it and has a broken cd drive :(00:11
BUGabundohumm00:11
BUGabundothat reminds me00:11
BUGabundowe should have a *really* easy to install from PXE00:11
BUGabundolike an image that boot as server00:12
BUGabundoor a easy to setup service on a lan pc :)00:12
dtchenMsMaco: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8201048#post820104800:15
dtchenMsMaco: thanks, and sure00:15
MsMacoBUGabundo: it turns out it is easy. dtchen  did it in like 5 minutes last time i had to install on that laptop00:16
MsMacodtchen: stuck00:16
BUGabundoMsMaco: sure its easy for advanced users00:16
MsMacoBUGabundo: i got the impression it was like 3 commands or so00:17
MsMacodtchen: no wonder people still think youre a core-dev. your forum banner still says "ubuntu developer"00:17
dtchenthanks00:17
dtchenthat banner was only added this cycle IIRC00:17
dtchentiming for everything seems to be abysmal00:18
BUGabundoehe00:18
dtchenanyhow, I really don't feel like spending my Friday night telling everyone to reboot into Karmic's kernel, but I'll end up doing it.00:18
bcurtiswxdtchen: had to look up IIRC....  i feel i've been around here forever but never long enough00:18
bcurtiswx<--- convo killer00:20
MsMacobcurtiswx: install bsd-games and then you can get the wtf program. type "wtf iirc" in a terminal and itll define it for you :P00:22
bcurtiswxso, Lucid Lynx.  Time to start thinking Lucid Milestones in bugs now.. or Karmic-updates?00:22
dtchenboth, of course00:23
dtchenif you're lucky, you get bugs all the time, so it really doesn't matter00:23
bcurtiswxMsMaco: i've been on the interwebs for such a long time.. im appalled at myself for not knowing that00:23
bcurtiswxim afraid for empathy and triage once everyone gets their hands on it for Karmic....00:24
MsMacooh god yeah00:24
bcurtiswxits just too bugy IMO... shouldn't have included it quite yet00:24
MsMacoi got it to work once for video chat with wgrant00:25
MsMacoon the 3rd try00:25
bcurtiswxkeyword: once00:25
MsMacotried to repeat with dholbach the next day...6 tries...gave up00:25
bcurtiswxtheres so much work that _needs_ to be done with it... all I can do is push ideas(bugs) their way, i don't know GTK+ to be helpful with patching etc..00:26
dtchenMsMaco: even with the version in karmic-proposed?00:26
MsMacothis was a week ago00:27
* MsMaco checks for updates00:27
bcurtiswxyeah proposed... i got it but didn't check... i wonder if there were lots of bug fixes in it <goes and checks>00:27
dtchenwell, yes, there are bug fixes00:27
MsMacodtchen: i need to disable proxying through your apt-cacher, eh?00:27
dtchenMsMaco: well, I have it cached *here*00:28
dtchenyou probably can't punch through the firewall, though00:28
bcurtiswxwow.. lucid toolchain uploaded already..00:28
MsMacodtchen: ok so yes00:28
MsMacodidnt know if youleft that laptop here and took the netbook with you :P00:28
dtchenI hate netbooks00:29
dtchenif it isn't "please actually boot into Karmic's kernel", it's "please install linux-backports-modules-alsa-karmic and reboot"00:29
BUGabundobcurtiswx: *already* ??00:30
dtchenhowever, that's a good thing -- I can easily be replaced by a robot!00:30
bcurtiswxprobably not.. i just see lucid in http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=empathy00:30
* BUGabundo backups apt sources 00:30
MsMacodtchen: actually thats a good idea....00:31
MsMacojussi01: can ubottu be taught to tell people to run "sudo update-grub" if they dist-upgraded and lost sound?00:31
bcurtiswxMsMaco: that would make an interesting installfest....00:31
dtchenMsMaco: err00:31
mastermolchhi, i did my first bug report 4 days ago about a sound card problem on my notebook with ubuntu 9.10. there was no reaction to it on launchpad. is there any way to speed up the fixing process. i would to help a bit more on fixing it, but i m just a normal user.00:31
dtchenthat might not be a good bot-toid00:31
chrisccoulsonbcurtiswx - that doesn't mean anything - the lucid version there was just pocket copied from karmic-proposed00:32
dtchenoh geez.00:32
chrisccoulsonbut yes, the toolchain is nearly uploaded00:32
* bcurtiswx beats up packages.ubuntu.com00:32
MsMacohahahaha00:32
dtchenmastermolch: which bug number?00:32
MsMacomastermolch: any chance you upgraded from jaunty to karmic?00:32
mastermolch46228300:32
bcurtiswxchrisccoulson: didn't waste any time00:32
mastermolchit is a fresh installation of karmic00:33
dtchenmastermolch: neither of them will be addressed immediately, as fixes require rather invasive changes to linux and pulseaudio.00:34
dtchenmastermolch: your non-stereo profile symptom is a dupe; search Launchpad.00:34
dtchenmastermolch: in other words, look for fixes in 10.04 LTS, not 9.10.00:35
mastermolcha dupe? you mean the reason is somewhere else?00:36
dtchenmastermolch: sorry to have to be the bearer of bad news.00:36
dtchenmastermolch: no, I'm saying that your non-stereo profile badness symptom has been reported about a half-dozen times before.00:36
MsMacomastermolch: dupe = duplicate00:36
mastermolchit is ok, but i would like it to use it in april again :D00:36
mastermolchok00:37
dtchenmastermolch: we'll likely have staging versions in the ubuntu-audio-dev PPA00:37
mastermolchi disabled pulseaudio in 9.04 and used alsa alone, but 9.10 has no guis for alsa now00:38
mastermolchit is not as easy to use alsa only now00:38
dtchenit's still quite straightforward00:38
dtchencreate an ~/.asoundrc that re-redefines pcm.default and ctl.default00:38
dtchenor, rm /usr/share/alsa/pulse.conf00:39
mastermolchok, i will read about it in the wiki again00:39
dtchendisable autospawn, etc.00:39
mastermolchok, the 5.1 problem is not so hard for me, i use my headphones most time, so stereo is ok now, 5.1 is like a nice option for me on this computer00:42
mastermolchi just wondered why it behaves that strange00:42
dtchen99% certain it's just mixer settings00:42
dtchenof course it'll end up being "well, alsa shouldn't be doing that"00:43
MsMacoare you ranting to yoursef again00:43
MsMaco?00:43
dtchenwho's ranting?00:43
* bcurtiswx agrees with MsMaco00:44
* BUGabundo is confused with MsMaco new nick00:45
MsMacowould you prefer /nick maco_isnt_using_quassel ?00:45
mastermolchok, can you have a look to another bug i reported this week?00:46
mastermolchnumber: 46292100:46
mastermolchmaybe they need more information?00:46
bcurtiswxi prefer /nick maco_isnt_using_quassel_so_bugabundo_should_stop_asking_questions00:46

mastermolchi tried to use audacity yesterday, recording worked, but the playback was stuttering in the first seconds and audacity had a freeze later00:47
BUGabundobcurtiswx: I didn't make a Q00:48
mastermolchi wonder a bit if this is connected to the other problem00:48
bcurtiswxBUGabundo: not yet.. :P00:48
mastermolchmaybe it is a chipset problem and not a graphics problem00:48
mastermolchor i dont know00:48
mastermolchi just wondered if my bug report is right this wax00:48
mastermolchway00:48
dtchenmastermolch: 462921 is fine; it has already been marked Confirmed. Just hang tight, please.00:49
dtchenWe all appreciate your enthusiasm, but things are pretty hectic the week of release.00:49
mastermolchyes sure, i forgot a bit :) i use karmic for 2 weeks now for testing.00:50
mastermolchbut you are right00:50
MsMacoso when can we upgrade to lucid?00:51

bcurtiswxdtchen: ^^04:19
dtchenthat's probably the PA bug we've been chasing04:20
bcurtiswxdtchen: alrightie04:20
dtchenseems there's a regression in the move from module-volume-restore -> module-stream-restore04:20
dtchenfrom all accounts a race -- need to inspect it later04:21
bcurtiswxah, ok.. gl!04:21
deuxpisomeone seems to have a problem with some libraries not binding properly in bug 464734. User should probably run ldconfig, but is there anything else to look for?04:44

balahi, i have upgraded to karmic (dell 1525), and am unable to resume after suspend, is there anything i could do to fix this?13:18
MrKanisterbala: I got exactly the same laptop (dell inspiron 1525). But I reinstalled Ubuntu instead of upgrading and suspend/resume works fine.13:21
balaMrKanister: unfortunately, i am not in a position to reinstall. :(13:22
MrKanisterbala: Well, if you got a seperate partition for /home/, it would be very easy. If not do a backup, reinstall, and copy back the content to /home/13:23
balaMrKanister: thanks. i will keep that in mind. meanwhile, i will try to look for something that wouldn't take as much time. if i can't find one, i will follow your way.13:26
balaMrKanister: but do you have any guess on what could have gone wrong?13:26
MrKanisterbala: hm, as far as I know, suspend/resume has only to do with the kernel and the regarding drivers13:27
MrKanisterbala: Maybe you can post your problem in a forum and attach them your dmesg-log ("dmesg > log.txt") in a terminal13:28
balaMrKanister: yup. unfortunately, my kde doesn't show options to shutdown and reboot anymore!13:28
carresmdFor some reason running ubuntu in karmic disables 'DeviceKit' suspend functionallity. Can someone confirm this for me using the following python script? http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/2416123/test_suspend.py14:13
carresmdoops14:14
carresmdI meant running karmic in virtualbox14:14
carresmdIt used to work in karmic beta. And I haven't seen anything in the virtualbox changelog which might have caused this.14:21
carresmdno one willing to help?14:36
JonyBlazei would if i had karmic installed in a virtualbox but i dont :|14:38
carresmdJonyBlaze, yeah I sounded a bit harsh didn't I?14:50

Sauliuslhey there14:56
Sauliuslgot completely lost trying to fix asus run hotkey (fn+space) after updating to 9.1014:56
caioanyone knows what is this? http://img405.imageshack.us/img405/1355/karmicgnomepanel.png14:57
Sauliusl> ~$ sudo /lib/udev/keymap -i input/event814:57

Sauliuslscan code: 0x00   key code: 14A14:57
Sauliuslscan code: 0x00   key code: prog114:57
Sauliuslhow I am supposed to assign a keymap to 0x00's ?14:57
caio:(14:58
caioSorry, the program "telepathy-butterfly" closed unexpectely15:00
caiobuggy koala15:01
carresmdcaio, looks like a graphical glitch to me15:03
caioit appears in the login screen too..15:05
caiovery strange and irritating, blinking every time :(15:05
carresmdcaio, are you using a proprietary video driver?15:07
carresmdSauliusl, are you using somekind of guide? If so, can you give me the url?15:09
Sauliuslcarresmd https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hotkeys/Troubleshooting15:09
caiocarresmd: nvidia...15:10
Sauliusland  /usr/share/doc/udev/README.keymap.txt15:10
carresmdcaio, can you check if it happens without using the proprietary driver?15:11
carresmdSauliusl, what is fn+space supposed to do?15:13
SauliuslI don't actually remember, though it has a running man symbol, so I call it "run" key15:14
Sauliuslthough that is not screenlock15:14
Sauliuslat all15:14
carresmdSauliusl, so currently if you press fn+space it locks your screen?15:15
Sauliuslthe keypress event gets detected by acpi_listen, by lshal-m,15:15
Sauliuslxev lists it as keymapNotify and the keymap -i shows all multimedia key scan codes 0x0015:15
Sauliuslyes it does15:16
Sauliuslunless i kill gnome-screensaver15:16
Sauliuslthe key did not work at all at jaunty, though i was able to easily patch it adding script to acpi/events15:18
Sauliuslthough now, when I do that it executes both: my script, and the lock screen binding15:18
carresmdSauliusl, what does '$ grep -ir screenlock /lib/udev/keymaps/' outpyt?15:20

carresmdSauliusl, they all are 0x00?15:23
Sauliuslyes15:23
carresmdSauliusl, missed that15:23
Sauliuslhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/305986/ that is weird15:25
Sauliuslisnt it?15:25
carresmdyeah, it isn't supposed to be like that15:26
Sauliusland the keymap's dump for input/event815:27
Sauliuslcontains only a single line: ### evdev 1.0.0., driver 'Asus Laptop extra buttons'15:27
carresmdwhat is you change 'input/event8' to 'input/event<nummer>' replace <number> with a number ^^. Check which are available via '$ ls -l /dev/input/'15:28
Sauliuslinput/event4 is for regular keyboard keys15:29
Sauliuslinput/event8 is for multimedia15:29
Sauliuslevent4 does not detect the multimedia, nor event8 detects regular keypresses15:29
carresmdSauliusl, hmm didn't know that :-)15:29
Sauliusl:)15:30
carresmdinput/event4 is for multimedia keys on my machine :S15:31
Sauliusli guess you're not on asus, are you?15:31
carresmdtrue15:31
Sauliusli think I should submit this into tracker15:32

mlourencodtchen, http://paste.ubuntu.com/306073/17:45
dtchensorry, I'm busy debugging another sound issue ATM, will look in ~30 minutes17:46
mlourencodtchen, no problem.17:48
dtchenis there a Thibault DUPUIS present?18:02
dtchenok, so more info for people triaging audio bugs:18:03
dtchenif you see that a reporter's symptoms are resolved by installing linux-backports-modules-alsa-karmic-generic, please make the following changes to the bug report:18:03
dtchenChange the affected source package to linux, and mark it Fix Committed with Importance Low18:03
dtchenAdd a linux-backports-modules-2.6.31 task, and mark it Fix Released18:03
dtchenthanks!18:03
dtchen(if you have a burning question and I'm not responding, contact maco/MsMaco, and she can relay it)18:04
MsMacohow can i relay it? you're not home!18:06
MsMacodtchen: ^18:06
joaopintodtchen, that should be added to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting18:07
joaopintodtchen, is the alsa from linux-backports expected to fix problems when there is no sound with PA running, but plays fine without PA ?18:22
dtchenjoaopinto: no, it isn't18:31
joaopintohum ok :\18:32
joaopintoany hints ?18:32
dtchenjoaopinto: it's limited to specific hardware (namely, Realtek and IDT/Sigmatel HDA codecs)18:32
dtchenMsMaco: you can SMS18:32
joaopintohow does pulseaudio interfere in such a way that there is no sound playback when ALSA plays just fine ?18:32
MsMacodtchen: ohok18:33
dtchenjoaopinto: PA has its own set of mixer profiles.18:34
joaopintoso in this case is most likely to be a PA bug at the mixer level ?18:35
dtchenjoaopinto: and no, the triaging procedure is for people who triage bugs (bugcontrol, etc.)18:35
dtchenin "this" case?18:35
joaopintodtchen, ok18:35
dtchenthere is no one catch-all case18:35
dtchenevery single bug needs to be evaluated individually18:36
joaopintodtchen, aplay plais fine without PA, no sound with PA18:36
dtchenjoaopinto: in that particular set of symptoms, you look at the output from 'amixer' with and without PA running.18:36
joaopintoit will report different values ?18:37
dtchenif that doesn't reveal anything, that's a much bigger problem, and you need to use codec debugging, e.g., wiki/ALSA/JackSense18:37
joaopintoerm, I am still missing something, does PA contain codec specific code ? isn't that the ALSA level only ?18:37
dtchenit *should* reveal different values18:40
dtchenif it *doesn't*, you have either a linux bug or a hardware bug18:40
dtchenhence my referring to codec debugging18:40
dtchenPA doesn't (and can't) meddle with the codec directly -- everything is proxied through alsa-lib by design18:40
dtchenfinally finished triaging this morning's round of 50 "grub didn't update properly" bugs18:42
joaopintoerm, an HW bug which is triggered by the PA mixer but not but by ALSA mixer ?18:42
dtchenjoaopinto: the PA mixer *is* the ALSA mixer18:42
dtchenjoaopinto: there is no difference18:42
dtchenjoaopinto: I simply explained every conceivable problem18:42
joaopintodtchen, you mentioned mixing profiles, so there is an extra level of management in PA, regarless if the backend is the alsa mixer18:42
dtchenjoaopinto: yes, but the fact that it touches the alsa mixer is the only relevant portion18:43
joaopintodtchen, I am trying to understand this particular scenario, where you have 0 sound with PA, and regular mixed sound without it18:43
dtchenif it works fine w/o PA, then you look at the mixer element settings before and after running PA18:43
dtchenit *should* be obvious which mixer elements have been modified18:44
dtchenif it *isn't*, you have a *serious* codec bug18:44
dtchensome HDA and AC'97 codecs *do* have these sort of bugs -- they will incorrectly cache their codec settings without actually updating upon read18:44
dtchenin that case, the only way to troubleshoot is to require a full powercycle where you wait 2-3 minutes between powering down and powering on to allow the capacitors to drain18:45
joaopintook, next time i will check the amixer output, tks18:46
dtchenFWIW, for some small percentage of the codecs, you can reset all the pins after completely unloading and reloading the sound driver, but you need hda-analyzer18:47
dtchenso, to summarise: check the amixer settings before and after PA is running (usually prior to gdm's greeter being started)18:48
joaopintook18:49
dtchenmlourenco: I don't think that pastebin url contains everything I asked for18:53
=== asac_ is now known as asac
dtchenwelp, that's certainly one way to prevent people from filing bugs via the LP web ui. Just OOPS. :-)19:03
MsMacohaha19:23
MsMacodtchen: you told me to ask for /boot/grub/grub.cfg on here, but i dont know what to do with it http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=130715519:32
dtchenMsMaco: hd0,1 should never be a floppy drive.19:41
dtchenMsMaco: the reporter needs to check her/his bios settings more closely19:41
jthillSo, I'm guessing that I'm one of very, very few people who ran jaunty with a root partition mounted data=ordered?19:46
MsMacodtchen: ok...19:48
MsMacodtchen: im still not sure what to tell them19:48
jthillnot sure if it's new with the karmic version of mount or what, but after upgrade the initial root mount was ro,data=writeback, which mount refuses to remount as rw,data=ordered19:50
jthillguess what that did when i rebooted my shiny new karmic system19:50
jthillAll better now, I did the manual mount to rw,data=writeback and fixed my fstab.19:52
jthillI don't see any bugs regarding this and wonder if I should even bother reporting it since it seems nobody else has hit it yet.19:53
dtchenreport it, please.19:53
dtchenubuntu-bug linux, etc.19:54
jthillthen that's what I'll do, thanks19:54

malikkit1hi20:35
tanathcan someone help me with what package to file a bug report in?20:37
tanathi get random freezing20:39
MsMacokernel panic, or X freezing?20:41
MsMacoif caps lock and num lock and such lights are flashing, its the former. if not, likely the latter20:41
tanathsometimes the kernel freezes (panicked once) sometimes not20:41
tanathit's very random :-/20:41
tanathi can find no commonality20:42
MsMacothats always fun20:42
tanathbut it started after karmic release20:42
MsMacowhich has new both...20:42
tanathbeen using karmic for months. didn't have this before20:42
MsMacowell if you know 1 was a panic, try "ubuntu-bug linux"20:42
adiroibanHi. Do you know how I should report upstream a VIM ?20:43
adiroibanah... found it.20:43
MsMacohi adiroiban20:43
tanathmcas, not sure i'll be able to run it20:44
tanathoops20:44
tanathmeant MsMaco20:44
adiroibanit looks like the project is vimonline20:44
MsMacotanath: that reports the bug to launchpad.net20:44
tanathi know20:44
tanathi mean, if i run it, there's a good chance it'll freeze again20:44
tanathMsMaco, many apps seems to cause it to freeze (sometimes immediately, sometimes not...)20:46
tanathparticularly gnome apps20:46
MsMacoif you do it from a tty it wont launch any gui apps20:46
tanaththat's not true20:47
tanathi just did, and it ran apport20:47
tanathand now won't let me cancel20:47
MsMacohmm?20:47
MsMacowait did you do that from a terminal inside X?20:47
MsMacoor did you do it from ctrl+alt+f1?20:47
tanathwell, yeah20:47
MsMacobecause from a tty it should say "hey, i'm not running inside X, so i'll use apport-cli..."20:48
tanathyeah, it did. it should do the same in a terminal too >.<20:48
tanathwell, that's debatable. nvm20:48
tanathwas annoying that it ignored my persistent clicking of the cancel button though >.<20:49
MsMacoyeah....20:49
tanathum, vty one says it'll open a web browser...20:50
MsMacodoes it open w3m?20:50
tanathnot sure that'll work from vty, but if it does, it'd prolly freeze the comp20:51
tanathnot sure i want to find out. my default browser is chrome, and it frequently seems related to freezing20:51
tanathum, the file it wants to send is 173MB o.O20:52
tanath*report20:52
MsMacow3m is a text based web browser20:52
tanathisn't that a bit much?20:53
tanathah, i think my default text-based browser is elinks20:53
MsMacosounds like it, yeah...20:53
tanathwhich i still don't like that much :P20:53
tanath173.4mb20:54
JanCthere is also a way to make a bug report and then upload it on another PC20:54
tanathoi20:54
tanathjust this one :-/20:54
tanathwhy would it be so big?20:55
tanaththat'll take some time to upload, and it might freeze before it finishes, tbh20:55
tanathi'm surprised it hasn't frozen yet TBH20:56
JanChttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Filing%20bugs%20when%20off-line20:56
tanathyeah, already chose keep20:57
tanathi was wondering if someone here might be able to help me narrow it down20:58
tanathi could do a better report if i knew where the problem was20:59
JanCrun memtest overnight?  ;)20:59
tanathoi. i'd like to be able to use my comp sooner than that :P21:02
tanathbut i've run memtest for a while before. i don't think the ram is the issue21:02
tanathaw hell21:13
tanath'something went wrong in launchpad'21:13
tanathi can't file my bug report21:18
tanathit keeps saying something went wrong21:18
tanathmm, trying the redirect disable21:19
