ebroder | Any ubuntu-installer experts around? I'm trying to do an unattended install of Hardy, but with no bootloader. grub-installer/skip works, but even if I set lilo-installer/skip, it still tries to install LILO | 14:25 |
ebroder | I tried comparing the lilo-installer and grub-installer source, but I can't figure out where the skip options are supposed to trigger in the first place | 14:27 |
cjwatson | ebroder: that feature wasn't in hardy | 14:31 |

dtchen | sebner: err, I don't understand. Do you mean that you dist-upgraded from 9.04? | 15:37 |
sebner | dtchen: no, new install but I found the "workaround" in your blog. killall slmodemd | 15:39 |
dtchen | sebner: well, you could also use module-detect instead of module-udev-detect | 15:39 |
sebner | dtchen: how where? | 15:40 |
dtchen | also covered in the blog post | 15:40 |
dtchen | i.e., edit ~/.pulse/default.pa or /etc/pulse/default.pa | 15:40 |
sebner | dtchen: well, documented to edit the files but not what ^^ | 15:41 |
dtchen | sebner: sorry, but is "use module-detect instead of module-udev-detect" unclear? The file has a pretty distinct section for it. | 15:41 |
sebner | dtchen: just comment out the 3 lines of *udev? | 15:41 |
dtchen | sebner: sure, including the appropriate conditional | 15:42 |
dtchen | sebner: it's also possible to avoid editing /etc/pulse/default.pa and use pacmd/pactl | 15:42 |
sebner | dtchen: wondering about the .else since it didn't work evidently ^^ | 15:42 |
mdz | dtchen, yes, restarting PA | 15:43 |
mdz | dtchen, is there a reason why that might not be a good idea? | 15:43 |
sebner | dtchen: btw, it shows me -30dB | 15:43 |
dtchen | mdz: I presume we'd tell the user that everything connected to PA will die? | 15:44 |
dtchen | sebner: you could also do something at runtime like (hacky): pactl unload-module $(pactl list|grep -B1 'Name: module-udev-detect'|head -1|awk -F# '{print $2}') && pactl load-module module-detect | 15:45 |
mdz | dtchen, yes, this would be an apport-driven debugging session | 15:45 |
sebner | dtchen: nah, I'll stick with edited pulse conf then ^^ | 15:46 |
mdz | (I'm assuming it's not possible to adjust the logging level at runtime; if it is, we don't need to restart) | 15:46 |
dtchen | mdz: not that I've seen | 15:46 |
dtchen | also, I should push my one-liner against lp:~ubuntu-core-dev/ubuntu/karmic/apport/ubuntu/ | 15:47 |
dtchen | + report['AlsaVersion'] = command_output(['cat','/proc/asound/version']) | 15:47 |
dtchen | e.g., this is necessary to direct people to install linux-backports-modules-alsa-karmic-generic | 15:48 |
dtchen | mdz: WRT JackSense, I don't know if the best place is via an apport hook -- maybe checkbox instead? | 15:49 |
sebner | dtchen: anyways, thanks for your help! :) | 15:49 |
dtchen | sebner: np | 15:51 |
dtchen | sebner: be aware that using module-detect will lose hot(un)plugging of audio devices | 15:52 |
sebner | dtchen: grrr. define "audio devices" I'm just using a laptop | 15:52 |
dtchen | sebner: well, anything capable of audio playback or capture, e.g., usb headset, webcam, etc. | 15:53 |
sebner | grml | 15:53 |
dtchen | i.e., if you use module-detect, plugging in (or removing) a usb headset won't register automatically | 15:53 |
sebner | dtchen: wondering about jaunty where everything worked | 15:53 |
dtchen | sebner: welcome to the world of upgrades involving udev changes, linux changes, and pulseaudio changes | 15:54 |
sebner | dtchen: heh, I suppose the motto is : "With lucid it'll get better" ? | 15:54 |
dtchen | it's pretty simple though -- just unload and reload module-detect to pick it up | 15:54 |
dtchen | heh, yeah, "better with lucid" | 15:55 |
sebner | ^^ | 15:57 |
dtchen | hmm | 17:08 |
dtchen | it appears that some users are choosing to keep an existing grub conffile when prompted during upgrade | 17:09 |

Gizmo_the_Great | oops :-) | 18:04 |
hyperair | / not \ | 18:04 |
hyperair | and you're already in to begin with.. | 18:04 |
Gizmo_the_Great | Hi. Doing some work using the memory analysis tool 'pcat' (part of The Coroners Toolkit). Using following syntax to analyse memory of the process : pcat 1234 | strings | less (where 1234 is the process ID of ecryptfs-kthrea). But it seems to prevent it. Am I doing something wrong, or is this part of eCryptFS, for security reasons? | 18:05 |
Gizmo_the_Great | I am asking at #ecryptsfs too, but that only has a few members | 18:06 |
geofft | Did you say kthread? | 18:11 |
geofft | I would be highly surprised if pcat works on kthreads. kthreads live entirely in kernelspace and IIRC have no userspace mm structure at all | 18:11 |
Gizmo_the_Great | geofft: It returns : "pcat: ptrace PTRACE_ATTACH : Operation not permitted". IS that a permissions thing, or due to the fact that it's empty (as you say) do you think? | 18:14 |
Gizmo_the_Great | Also, what is a userspace mm structure (forgive me, relatively new to this area) | 18:15 |
geofft | oh, you're ptracing it. Yeah, that won't work either | 18:16 |
geofft | For normal processes, the kernel keeps track of a bunch of information userspace needs, including what memory userspace has mapped | 18:16 |
geofft | For kernel threads, because they only have kernel memory, the structure to track userspace memory doesn't exist | 18:17 |
geofft | Also, ptrace works for the most part by tracking system calls. Since kernel threads never work in userspace, system calls don't exist for them | 18:17 |
Gizmo_the_Great | geofft: I have just read this : http://www.linfo.org/kernel_space.html and that all makes sense now, along with your explanation. Many thanks | 18:18 |
geofft | Basically all the usual things you can do to processes other than look at them in ps don't apply to kernel threads. | 18:18 |
geofft | Sure, np | 18:18 |
geofft | Ah, yes, the definition of kernelspace is useful :) | 18:18 |
Gizmo_the_Great | So are we saying, basically, that because ecryptfs is part of the Linux Kernel, it is effectively inaccessible by the normal user? | 18:19 |
jdong | not by the normal user (well for non-root users that's pretty true too), but not by the tools you are using which are designed primarily for userspace processes | 18:21 |
Gizmo_the_Great | can I was what ptrace is? If you were writing a paper, and you started with "The Pcat program uses ptrace which is a...." | 18:25 |
Gizmo_the_Great | ? | 18:25 |
jdong | more or less a process debugger/manipulator/inspecter. | 18:26 |
geofft | interface for one process to inspect (and modify) other processes | 18:26 |
geofft | Hm, between those two answers I think we paraphrased the first paragraph of the manpage :) | 18:27 |
jdong | lol indeed | 18:27 |
Gizmo_the_Great | many thanks gents | 18:34 |
jdong | no probs. Happy exploring :) | 18:36 |
Gizmo_the_Great | how can you capture ram on Linux using dd? dd if=/dev/mem of=test results in only a 1Mb file? | 18:53 |
Gizmo_the_Great | guess I am capturing the wrong thing? | 18:53 |
geofft | I kind of doubt that will work... (also, last time I checked, either mem or kmem was broken. dunno if that's been fixed or WONTFIXed) | 18:58 |
geofft | are you familiar with the distinction between physical and virtual memory? | 18:58 |
geofft | and how different processes can see different views of memory? | 18:59 |
Gizmo_the_Great | geofft: not massively, no. I am using virtual machines (VMWare) to conduct my tests, so I could examine the vmem file of a puased virtual machine. But I was hoping to do it 'neat' on a Linux machine. | 19:00 |
