[00:03] <dtchen> ok, seriously, this is becoming ridiculous
[00:04] <BUGabundo> dtchen: ?
[00:04] <dtchen> just 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 snafu
[00:05] <BUGabundo> :)
[00:05] <dtchen> on one hand, it's pretty simple to script: it just looks mismatched DistroRelease and ProcVersionSignature
[00:05] <BUGabundo> how did that escape beta?
[00:05] <BUGabundo> lol
[00:06] <bdmurray> dtchen: I've done a dist-upgrade today and didn't see that.  Do you have any more information?
[00:06] <dtchen> on another, it is really just a waste of my time
[00:06] <dtchen> bdmurray: I don't have any more
[00:06] <dtchen> but, I can just sling bugs your way
[00:06] <dtchen> my gmail account is cluttered with them
[00:06] <bdmurray> I've seen some of them
[00:07] <BUGabundo> bdmurray: users on 2.6.28  upgradng to karmic don't get grub to boot from 2.6.31
[00:07] <BUGabundo> that's the result of the bug
[00:07] <BUGabundo> I still don't get why we aren't pushing grub-pc
[00:07] <BUGabundo> when are we expected to upgrade it? next cycle?
[00:08] <MsMaco> BUGabundo: but not ALL upgraders are hitting it
[00:08] <MsMaco> BUGabundo: thats whats got bdmurray  and i confused. we both upgraded and havent hit it
[00:08] <BUGabundo> let me guess: diferent pockets enabled :)
[00:08] <MsMaco> s/i/me/
[00:08] <dtchen> I wonder what FS type is being used.
[00:09] <dtchen> MsMaco: may I bother you to stick something in the forums shortly?
[00:09] <dtchen> sticky*
[00:10] <MsMaco> aye
[00:10] <MsMaco> np
[00:10]  * MsMaco scowls at laptop lid
[00:10] <MsMaco> stay open!
[00:10] <MsMaco> dtchen: can i pxe boot a karmic i386 install from your laptop tonight?
[00:11] <MsMaco> this 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] <BUGabundo> humm
[00:11] <BUGabundo> that reminds me
[00:11] <BUGabundo> we should have a *really* easy to install from PXE
[00:12] <BUGabundo> like an image that boot as server
[00:12] <BUGabundo> or a easy to setup service on a lan pc :)
[00:15] <dtchen> MsMaco: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8201048#post8201048
[00:15] <dtchen> MsMaco: thanks, and sure
[00:16] <MsMaco> BUGabundo: it turns out it is easy. dtchen  did it in like 5 minutes last time i had to install on that laptop
[00:16] <MsMaco> dtchen: stuck
[00:16] <BUGabundo> MsMaco: sure its easy for advanced users
[00:17] <MsMaco> BUGabundo: i got the impression it was like 3 commands or so
[00:17] <MsMaco> dtchen: no wonder people still think youre a core-dev. your forum banner still says "ubuntu developer"
[00:17] <dtchen> thanks
[00:17] <dtchen> that banner was only added this cycle IIRC
[00:18] <dtchen> timing for everything seems to be abysmal
[00:18] <BUGabundo> ehe
[00:18] <dtchen> anyhow, 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] <bcurtiswx> dtchen: had to look up IIRC....  i feel i've been around here forever but never long enough
[00:20] <bcurtiswx> <--- convo killer
[00:22] <MsMaco> bcurtiswx: install bsd-games and then you can get the wtf program. type "wtf iirc" in a terminal and itll define it for you :P
[00:22] <bcurtiswx> so, Lucid Lynx.  Time to start thinking Lucid Milestones in bugs now.. or Karmic-updates?
[00:23] <dtchen> both, of course
[00:23] <dtchen> if you're lucky, you get bugs all the time, so it really doesn't matter
[00:23] <bcurtiswx> MsMaco: i've been on the interwebs for such a long time.. im appalled at myself for not knowing that
[00:24] <bcurtiswx> im afraid for empathy and triage once everyone gets their hands on it for Karmic....
[00:24] <MsMaco> oh god yeah
[00:24] <bcurtiswx> its just too bugy IMO... shouldn't have included it quite yet
[00:25] <MsMaco> i got it to work once for video chat with wgrant
[00:25] <MsMaco> on the 3rd try
[00:25] <bcurtiswx> keyword: once
[00:25] <MsMaco> tried to repeat with dholbach the next day...6 tries...gave up
[00:26] <bcurtiswx> theres 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] <dtchen> MsMaco: even with the version in karmic-proposed?
[00:27] <MsMaco> this was a week ago
[00:27]  * MsMaco checks for updates
[00:27] <bcurtiswx> yeah proposed... i got it but didn't check... i wonder if there were lots of bug fixes in it <goes and checks>
[00:27] <dtchen> well, yes, there are bug fixes
[00:27] <MsMaco> dtchen: i need to disable proxying through your apt-cacher, eh?
[00:28] <dtchen> MsMaco: well, I have it cached *here*
[00:28] <dtchen> you probably can't punch through the firewall, though
[00:28] <bcurtiswx> wow.. lucid toolchain uploaded already..
[00:28] <MsMaco> dtchen: ok so yes
[00:28] <MsMaco> didnt know if youleft that laptop here and took the netbook with you :P
[00:29] <dtchen> I hate netbooks
[00:29] <dtchen> if it isn't "please actually boot into Karmic's kernel", it's "please install linux-backports-modules-alsa-karmic and reboot"
[00:30] <BUGabundo> bcurtiswx: *already* ??
[00:30] <dtchen> however, that's a good thing -- I can easily be replaced by a robot!
[00:30] <bcurtiswx> probably not.. i just see lucid in http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=empathy
[00:30]  * BUGabundo backups apt sources 
[00:31] <MsMaco> dtchen: actually thats a good idea....
[00:31] <MsMaco> jussi01: can ubottu be taught to tell people to run "sudo update-grub" if they dist-upgraded and lost sound?
[00:31] <bcurtiswx> MsMaco: that would make an interesting installfest....
[00:31] <dtchen> MsMaco: err
[00:31] <mastermolch> hi, 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] <dtchen> that might not be a good bot-toid
[00:32] <chrisccoulson> bcurtiswx - that doesn't mean anything - the lucid version there was just pocket copied from karmic-proposed
[00:32] <dtchen> oh geez.
[00:32] <chrisccoulson> but yes, the toolchain is nearly uploaded
[00:32]  * bcurtiswx beats up packages.ubuntu.com
[00:32] <MsMaco> hahahaha
[00:32] <dtchen> mastermolch: which bug number?
[00:32] <MsMaco> mastermolch: any chance you upgraded from jaunty to karmic?
[00:32] <mastermolch> 462283
[00:32] <bcurtiswx> chrisccoulson: didn't waste any time
[00:33] <mastermolch> it is a fresh installation of karmic
[00:34] <dtchen> mastermolch: neither of them will be addressed immediately, as fixes require rather invasive changes to linux and pulseaudio.
[00:34] <dtchen> mastermolch: your non-stereo profile symptom is a dupe; search Launchpad.
[00:35] <dtchen> mastermolch: in other words, look for fixes in 10.04 LTS, not 9.10.
[00:36] <mastermolch> a dupe? you mean the reason is somewhere else?
[00:36] <dtchen> mastermolch: sorry to have to be the bearer of bad news.
[00:36] <dtchen> mastermolch: no, I'm saying that your non-stereo profile badness symptom has been reported about a half-dozen times before.
[00:36] <MsMaco> mastermolch: dupe = duplicate
[00:36] <mastermolch> it is ok, but i would like it to use it in april again :D
[00:37] <mastermolch> ok
[00:37] <dtchen> mastermolch: we'll likely have staging versions in the ubuntu-audio-dev PPA
[00:38] <mastermolch> i disabled pulseaudio in 9.04 and used alsa alone, but 9.10 has no guis for alsa now
[00:38] <mastermolch> it is not as easy to use alsa only now
[00:38] <dtchen> it's still quite straightforward
[00:38] <dtchen> create an ~/.asoundrc that re-redefines pcm.default and ctl.default
[00:39] <dtchen> or, rm /usr/share/alsa/pulse.conf
[00:39] <mastermolch> ok, i will read about it in the wiki again
[00:39] <dtchen> disable autospawn, etc.
[00:42] <mastermolch> ok, 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 computer
[00:42] <mastermolch> i just wondered why it behaves that strange
[00:42] <dtchen> 99% certain it's just mixer settings
[00:43] <dtchen> of course it'll end up being "well, alsa shouldn't be doing that"
[00:43] <MsMaco> are you ranting to yoursef again
[00:43] <MsMaco> ?
[00:43] <dtchen> who's ranting?
[00:44]  * bcurtiswx agrees with MsMaco
[00:45]  * BUGabundo is confused with MsMaco new nick
[00:45] <MsMaco> would you prefer /nick maco_isnt_using_quassel ?
[00:46] <mastermolch> ok, can you have a look to another bug i reported this week?
[00:46] <mastermolch> number: 462921
[00:46] <mastermolch> maybe they need more information?
[00:46] <bcurtiswx> i prefer /nick maco_isnt_using_quassel_so_bugabundo_should_stop_asking_questions

[00:47] <mastermolch> i tried to use audacity yesterday, recording worked, but the playback was stuttering in the first seconds and audacity had a freeze later
[00:48] <BUGabundo> bcurtiswx: I didn't make a Q
[00:48] <mastermolch> i wonder a bit if this is connected to the other problem
[00:48] <bcurtiswx> BUGabundo: not yet.. :P
[00:48] <mastermolch> maybe it is a chipset problem and not a graphics problem
[00:48] <mastermolch> or i dont know
[00:48] <mastermolch> i just wondered if my bug report is right this wax
[00:48] <mastermolch> way
[00:49] <dtchen> mastermolch: 462921 is fine; it has already been marked Confirmed. Just hang tight, please.
[00:49] <dtchen> We all appreciate your enthusiasm, but things are pretty hectic the week of release.
[00:50] <mastermolch> yes sure, i forgot a bit :) i use karmic for 2 weeks now for testing.
[00:50] <mastermolch> but you are right
[00:51] <MsMaco> so when can we upgrade to lucid?
[00:52] <dtchen> it already exists (http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/lucid/)
[00:57]  * BUGabundo claps hands
[01:04] <MsMaco> yeah but there arent repos for it :P
[01:09] <BUGabundo> I'll just add it to sources
[01:09] <BUGabundo> once stuff comes porign in I'll get ut :)

[02:23] <monteiro> anyone knows a way to find a method in a set of files?
[04:08] <bcurtiswx> dtchen: not to beat a dead horse down or anything... but would you know why my sounds not working right now?
[04:09] <lifeless> bcurtiswx: boot into a karmic kernel
[04:09] <bcurtiswx> does it not do that by default?
[04:12] <bcurtiswx> lifeless: im in a karmic kernel... no sound
[04:14] <bcurtiswx> ah ha
[04:14] <bcurtiswx> its muted in a weird way
[04:18] <dtchen> bcurtiswx: as in zero/muted at login?
[04:19] <bcurtiswx> yeah
[04:19] <bcurtiswx> dtchen: ^^
[04:20] <dtchen> that's probably the PA bug we've been chasing
[04:20] <bcurtiswx> dtchen: alrightie
[04:20] <dtchen> seems there's a regression in the move from module-volume-restore -> module-stream-restore
[04:21] <dtchen> from all accounts a race -- need to inspect it later
[04:21] <bcurtiswx> ah, ok.. gl!

[12:34] <anatolich> hi all! not sure it`s a bug, but grub2 does not write boot sector to a partition during installation. Can anybody consult me?
[13:18] <bala> hi, i have upgraded to karmic (dell 1525), and am unable to resume after suspend, is there anything i could do to fix this?
[13:21] <MrKanister> bala: I got exactly the same laptop (dell inspiron 1525). But I reinstalled Ubuntu instead of upgrading and suspend/resume works fine.
[13:22] <bala> MrKanister: unfortunately, i am not in a position to reinstall. :(
[13:23] <MrKanister> bala: 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/
[13:26] <bala> MrKanister: 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] <bala> MrKanister: but do you have any guess on what could have gone wrong?
[13:27] <MrKanister> bala: hm, as far as I know, suspend/resume has only to do with the kernel and the regarding drivers
[13:28] <MrKanister> bala: Maybe you can post your problem in a forum and attach them your dmesg-log ("dmesg > log.txt") in a terminal
[13:28] <bala> MrKanister: yup. unfortunately, my kde doesn't show options to shutdown and reboot anymore!
[14:13] <carresmd> For 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.py
[14:14] <carresmd> oops
[14:14] <carresmd> I meant running karmic in virtualbox
[14:21] <carresmd> It used to work in karmic beta. And I haven't seen anything in the virtualbox changelog which might have caused this.
[14:36] <carresmd> no one willing to help?
[14:38] <JonyBlaze> i would if i had karmic installed in a virtualbox but i dont :|
[14:50] <carresmd> JonyBlaze, yeah I sounded a bit harsh didn't I?

[14:56] <Sauliusl> hey there
[14:56] <Sauliusl> got completely lost trying to fix asus run hotkey (fn+space) after updating to 9.10
[14:57] <caio> anyone knows what is this? http://img405.imageshack.us/img405/1355/karmicgnomepanel.png
[14:57] <Sauliusl> > ~$ sudo /lib/udev/keymap -i input/event8
[14:57] <Sauliusl> scan code: 0x00   key code: screenlock
[14:57] <Sauliusl> scan code: 0x00   key code: 14A
[14:57] <Sauliusl> scan code: 0x00   key code: prog1
[14:57] <Sauliusl> how I am supposed to assign a keymap to 0x00's ?
[14:58] <caio> :(
[15:00] <caio> Sorry, the program "telepathy-butterfly" closed unexpectely
[15:01] <caio> buggy koala
[15:03] <carresmd> caio, looks like a graphical glitch to me
[15:05] <caio> it appears in the login screen too..
[15:05] <caio> very strange and irritating, blinking every time :(
[15:07] <carresmd> caio, are you using a proprietary video driver?
[15:09] <carresmd> Sauliusl, are you using somekind of guide? If so, can you give me the url?
[15:09] <Sauliusl> carresmd https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hotkeys/Troubleshooting
[15:10] <caio> carresmd: nvidia...
[15:10] <Sauliusl> and  /usr/share/doc/udev/README.keymap.txt
[15:11] <carresmd> caio, can you check if it happens without using the proprietary driver?
[15:13] <carresmd> Sauliusl, what is fn+space supposed to do?
[15:14] <Sauliusl> I don't actually remember, though it has a running man symbol, so I call it "run" key
[15:14] <Sauliusl> though that is not screenlock
[15:14] <Sauliusl> at all
[15:15] <carresmd> Sauliusl, so currently if you press fn+space it locks your screen?
[15:15] <Sauliusl> the keypress event gets detected by acpi_listen, by lshal-m,
[15:15] <Sauliusl> xev lists it as keymapNotify and the keymap -i shows all multimedia key scan codes 0x00
[15:16] <Sauliusl> yes it does
[15:16] <Sauliusl> unless i kill gnome-screensaver
[15:18] <Sauliusl> the key did not work at all at jaunty, though i was able to easily patch it adding script to acpi/events
[15:18] <Sauliusl> though now, when I do that it executes both: my script, and the lock screen binding
[15:20] <carresmd> Sauliusl, what does '$ grep -ir screenlock /lib/udev/keymaps/' outpyt?
[15:20] <carresmd> !paste | Sauliusl
[15:20] <ubot4> Sauliusl: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com (or !pastebinit for CLI) | For pasting !screenshots use http://tinyurl.com/imagebin Please give us the URLs for your posts!
[15:21] <Sauliusl> http://paste.ubuntu.com/305982/
[15:23] <Sauliusl> I still wonder why all multimedia keys have the same scancode, but different assigments to them (and they actually work)
[15:23] <carresmd> Sauliusl, they all are 0x00?
[15:23] <Sauliusl> yes
[15:23] <carresmd> Sauliusl, missed that
[15:25] <Sauliusl> http://paste.ubuntu.com/305986/ that is weird
[15:25] <Sauliusl> isnt it?
[15:26] <carresmd> yeah, it isn't supposed to be like that
[15:27] <Sauliusl> and the keymap's dump for input/event8
[15:27] <Sauliusl> contains only a single line: ### evdev 1.0.0., driver 'Asus Laptop extra buttons'
[15:28] <carresmd> what is you change 'input/event8' to 'input/event<nummer>' replace <number> with a number ^^. Check which are available via '$ ls -l /dev/input/'
[15:29] <Sauliusl> input/event4 is for regular keyboard keys
[15:29] <Sauliusl> input/event8 is for multimedia
[15:29] <Sauliusl> event4 does not detect the multimedia, nor event8 detects regular keypresses
[15:29] <carresmd> Sauliusl, hmm didn't know that :-)
[15:30] <Sauliusl> :)
[15:31] <carresmd> input/event4 is for multimedia keys on my machine :S
[15:31] <Sauliusl> i guess you're not on asus, are you?
[15:31] <carresmd> true
[15:32] <Sauliusl> i think I should submit this into tracker
[15:32] <Sauliusl> though i am not sure where the problem is exactly so dont know which package to add the bug to
[15:33] <carresmd> probably udev
[15:33] <carresmd> https://bugs.launchpad.net/udev-extras/+bugs
[15:34] <Sauliusl> why is launchpad so slow?
[15:34] <Sauliusl> There are currently no open bugs.
[15:34] <Sauliusl> thats awesome :D
[15:35] <carresmd> lol
[15:35] <Sauliusl> Udev extras  does not use Launchpad as its bug tracker.
[15:35] <carresmd> it isn't slow for me

[17:45] <mlourenco> dtchen, http://paste.ubuntu.com/306073/
[17:46] <dtchen> sorry, I'm busy debugging another sound issue ATM, will look in ~30 minutes
[17:48] <mlourenco> dtchen, no problem.
[18:02] <dtchen> is there a Thibault DUPUIS present?
[18:03] <dtchen> ok, so more info for people triaging audio bugs:
[18:03] <dtchen> if 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] <dtchen> Change the affected source package to linux, and mark it Fix Committed with Importance Low
[18:03] <dtchen> Add a linux-backports-modules-2.6.31 task, and mark it Fix Released
[18:03] <dtchen> thanks!
[18:04] <dtchen> (if you have a burning question and I'm not responding, contact maco/MsMaco, and she can relay it)
[18:06] <MsMaco> how can i relay it? you're not home!
[18:06] <MsMaco> dtchen: ^
[18:07] <joaopinto> dtchen, that should be added to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting
[18:22] <joaopinto> dtchen, is the alsa from linux-backports expected to fix problems when there is no sound with PA running, but plays fine without PA ?
[18:31] <dtchen> joaopinto: no, it isn't
[18:32] <joaopinto> hum ok :\
[18:32] <joaopinto> any hints ?
[18:32] <dtchen> joaopinto: it's limited to specific hardware (namely, Realtek and IDT/Sigmatel HDA codecs)
[18:32] <dtchen> MsMaco: you can SMS
[18:32] <joaopinto> how does pulseaudio interfere in such a way that there is no sound playback when ALSA plays just fine ?
[18:33] <MsMaco> dtchen: ohok
[18:34] <dtchen> joaopinto: PA has its own set of mixer profiles.
[18:35] <joaopinto> so in this case is most likely to be a PA bug at the mixer level ?
[18:35] <dtchen> joaopinto: and no, the triaging procedure is for people who triage bugs (bugcontrol, etc.)
[18:35] <dtchen> in "this" case?
[18:35] <joaopinto> dtchen, ok
[18:35] <dtchen> there is no one catch-all case
[18:36] <dtchen> every single bug needs to be evaluated individually
[18:36] <joaopinto> dtchen, aplay plais fine without PA, no sound with PA
[18:36] <dtchen> joaopinto: in that particular set of symptoms, you look at the output from 'amixer' with and without PA running.
[18:37] <joaopinto> it will report different values ?
[18:37] <dtchen> if that doesn't reveal anything, that's a much bigger problem, and you need to use codec debugging, e.g., wiki/ALSA/JackSense
[18:37] <joaopinto> erm, I am still missing something, does PA contain codec specific code ? isn't that the ALSA level only ?
[18:40] <dtchen> it *should* reveal different values
[18:40] <dtchen> if it *doesn't*, you have either a linux bug or a hardware bug
[18:40] <dtchen> hence my referring to codec debugging
[18:40] <dtchen> PA doesn't (and can't) meddle with the codec directly -- everything is proxied through alsa-lib by design
[18:42] <dtchen> finally finished triaging this morning's round of 50 "grub didn't update properly" bugs
[18:42] <joaopinto> erm, an HW bug which is triggered by the PA mixer but not but by ALSA mixer ?
[18:42] <dtchen> joaopinto: the PA mixer *is* the ALSA mixer
[18:42] <dtchen> joaopinto: there is no difference
[18:42] <dtchen> joaopinto: I simply explained every conceivable problem
[18:42] <joaopinto> dtchen, you mentioned mixing profiles, so there is an extra level of management in PA, regarless if the backend is the alsa mixer
[18:43] <dtchen> joaopinto: yes, but the fact that it touches the alsa mixer is the only relevant portion
[18:43] <joaopinto> dtchen, I am trying to understand this particular scenario, where you have 0 sound with PA, and regular mixed sound without it
[18:43] <dtchen> if it works fine w/o PA, then you look at the mixer element settings before and after running PA
[18:44] <dtchen> it *should* be obvious which mixer elements have been modified
[18:44] <dtchen> if it *isn't*, you have a *serious* codec bug
[18:44] <dtchen> some HDA and AC'97 codecs *do* have these sort of bugs -- they will incorrectly cache their codec settings without actually updating upon read
[18:45] <dtchen> in 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 drain
[18:46] <joaopinto> ok, next time i will check the amixer output, tks
[18:47] <dtchen> FWIW, 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-analyzer
[18:48] <dtchen> so, to summarise: check the amixer settings before and after PA is running (usually prior to gdm's greeter being started)
[18:49] <joaopinto> ok
[18:53] <dtchen> mlourenco: I don't think that pastebin url contains everything I asked for
[19:03] <dtchen> welp, that's certainly one way to prevent people from filing bugs via the LP web ui. Just OOPS. :-)
[19:23] <MsMaco> haha
[19:32] <MsMaco> dtchen: 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=1307155
[19:41] <dtchen> MsMaco: hd0,1 should never be a floppy drive.
[19:41] <dtchen> MsMaco: the reporter needs to check her/his bios settings more closely
[19:46] <jthill> So, I'm guessing that I'm one of very, very few people who ran jaunty with a root partition mounted data=ordered?
[19:48] <MsMaco> dtchen: ok...
[19:48] <MsMaco> dtchen: im still not sure what to tell them
[19:50] <jthill> not 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=ordered
[19:50] <jthill> guess what that did when i rebooted my shiny new karmic system
[19:52] <jthill> All better now, I did the manual mount to rw,data=writeback and fixed my fstab.
[19:53] <jthill> I 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] <dtchen> report it, please.
[19:54] <dtchen> ubuntu-bug linux, etc.
[19:54] <jthill> then that's what I'll do, thanks
[19:55] <dtchen> MsMaco: walk her/him through checking the UUI
[19:55] <dtchen> UUID*
[19:56] <MsMaco> ...
[19:56] <MsMaco> i dont know how
[19:59] <dtchen> man blkid
[19:59] <MsMaco> thanks
[19:59] <MsMaco> i assumed itd be one of the uuid* commands but thats not it
[20:35] <malikkit1> hi
[20:37] <tanath> can someone help me with what package to file a bug report in?
[20:39] <tanath> i get random freezing
[20:41] <MsMaco> kernel panic, or X freezing?
[20:41] <MsMaco> if caps lock and num lock and such lights are flashing, its the former. if not, likely the latter
[20:41] <tanath> sometimes the kernel freezes (panicked once) sometimes not
[20:41] <tanath> it's very random :-/
[20:42] <tanath> i can find no commonality
[20:42] <MsMaco> thats always fun
[20:42] <tanath> but it started after karmic release
[20:42] <MsMaco> which has new both...
[20:42] <tanath> been using karmic for months. didn't have this before
[20:42] <MsMaco> well if you know 1 was a panic, try "ubuntu-bug linux"
[20:43] <adiroiban> Hi. Do you know how I should report upstream a VIM ?
[20:43] <adiroiban> ah... found it.
[20:43] <MsMaco> hi adiroiban
[20:44] <tanath> mcas, not sure i'll be able to run it
[20:44] <tanath> oops
[20:44] <tanath> meant MsMaco
[20:44] <adiroiban> it looks like the project is vimonline
[20:44] <MsMaco> tanath: that reports the bug to launchpad.net
[20:44] <tanath> i know
[20:44] <tanath> i mean, if i run it, there's a good chance it'll freeze again
[20:46] <tanath> MsMaco, many apps seems to cause it to freeze (sometimes immediately, sometimes not...)
[20:46] <tanath> particularly gnome apps
[20:46] <MsMaco> if you do it from a tty it wont launch any gui apps
[20:47] <tanath> that's not true
[20:47] <tanath> i just did, and it ran apport
[20:47] <tanath> and now won't let me cancel
[20:47] <MsMaco> hmm?
[20:47] <MsMaco> wait did you do that from a terminal inside X?
[20:47] <MsMaco> or did you do it from ctrl+alt+f1?
[20:47] <tanath> well, yeah
[20:48] <MsMaco> because from a tty it should say "hey, i'm not running inside X, so i'll use apport-cli..."
[20:48] <tanath> yeah, it did. it should do the same in a terminal too >.<
[20:48] <tanath> well, that's debatable. nvm
[20:49] <tanath> was annoying that it ignored my persistent clicking of the cancel button though >.<
[20:49] <MsMaco> yeah....
[20:50] <tanath> um, vty one says it'll open a web browser...
[20:50] <MsMaco> does it open w3m?
[20:51] <tanath> not sure that'll work from vty, but if it does, it'd prolly freeze the comp
[20:51] <tanath> not sure i want to find out. my default browser is chrome, and it frequently seems related to freezing
[20:52] <tanath> um, the file it wants to send is 173MB o.O
[20:52] <tanath> *report
[20:52] <MsMaco> w3m is a text based web browser
[20:53] <tanath> isn't that a bit much?
[20:53] <tanath> ah, i think my default text-based browser is elinks
[20:53] <MsMaco> sounds like it, yeah...
[20:53] <tanath> which i still don't like that much :P
[20:54] <tanath> 173.4mb
[20:54] <JanC> there is also a way to make a bug report and then upload it on another PC
[20:54] <tanath> oi
[20:54] <tanath> just this one :-/
[20:55] <tanath> why would it be so big?
[20:55] <tanath> that'll take some time to upload, and it might freeze before it finishes, tbh
[20:56] <tanath> i'm surprised it hasn't frozen yet TBH
[20:56] <JanC> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Filing%20bugs%20when%20off-line
[20:57] <tanath> yeah, already chose keep
[20:58] <tanath> i was wondering if someone here might be able to help me narrow it down
[20:59] <tanath> i could do a better report if i knew where the problem was
[20:59] <JanC> run memtest overnight?  ;)
[21:02] <tanath> oi. i'd like to be able to use my comp sooner than that :P
[21:02] <tanath> but i've run memtest for a while before. i don't think the ram is the issue
[21:13] <tanath> aw hell
[21:13] <tanath> 'something went wrong in launchpad'
[21:18] <tanath> i can't file my bug report
[21:18] <tanath> it keeps saying something went wrong
[21:19] <tanath> mm, trying the redirect disable
[21:19] <tanath> there we go
[21:50] <mlourenco> 9.10 Samba bug - invoke-rc.d: initscript samba, action "start" failed....can anyone help?
[21:51] <mlourenco> error happens on the installation.
[23:01] <kklimonda> is there some bug related to upgrading kernel?
[23:01] <kklimonda> I've seen again problem which was related to running 2.6.28 kernel on 9.10 system
[23:02] <kklimonda> he has .31 installed but it didn't show up in his menu.lst
[23:36] <ikt> yeah I've seen that as well kklimonda
