apwKeybuk, pete tells me you might be interested in testing kernels with the ext4 issues sorts (this would be a .32 base) ?10:01
ghostcubehi humans logitech uvc bug fixed in 2.6.31-15 from proposed updates on 64bit10:18
ghostcubethx10:18
apwghostcube, yay ... which bug was that?10:22

apwhrm, New10:23
ghostcubei reported direct aafter karmic upgrade10:24
ghostcubebut no one took it :)10:24
apwheh ... sorry we have a fair few reports out there10:24
ghostcubeno prob :) 10:24
Appiah:D10:24
ghostcubeworks again now in all apps exept camorama10:25
ghostcubeclaims no /dev/video010:25
ghostcubebut all others work in kubuntu 10:25
ghostcube:)10:25
slytherinCan anyone please take a look at bug 476154. I have tracked upstream change that should fix the problem. It will be great if someone could provide a test build for kernel with this patch included.10:25
ubot3Malone bug 476154 in linux "Stack trace on console, can not do clean shutdown" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/47615410:25
apwghostcube, hrm, unless htat webcam is a usb connected one its not obvious there are any fixes in there for it10:26
ghostcubeits usb10:26
ghostcubeanything was changed i dont know what10:27
ghostcubebut it works again for all i aksed with same error10:27
apwyeah happy its working for you ... i'll close it off.  do reopen it if it breaks10:27
ghostcubeok i will do so :)10:27
apwunless we had some modules missing and the module bit fixed it ... hmmm10:27
ghostcubeit was only the picture not working10:28
ghostcubecam was detected and in demesg the driver was installed fine10:28
ghostcubeit was just a black picture even with 500 watt lamp infront10:28
ghostcube:D10:28
apwwell i'll take any victory however won10:29
ghostcube:)10:29
smbapw, Hm, the only modules missing were in virtual. And the only usb change seems to be the sense one for the huawei's. But true enough better fixed without understanding that not at all10:31
apwyeah oddness10:32
smbslytherin, seems to be one coming down from stable. I get a test kernel build10:34
* apw was just going to ask smb if that update was in stable and if os .5 or .6 ?10:34
smbapw, .610:35
apwgah10:35
apwpre-pre-propposed10:35
smbapw, I do a special kernel and make a note to have that other bug cross-referenced10:36
apwyeah10:36
apwsmb, i note its for powerpc ...10:37
smbapw, iirc the original one was 10:38
smb(the one which broke things)10:38
apwyeah i mean, i would have made x86 test kernels and looked stupid :)10:38
ghostcubeah i forgot to test the r128 modul from ppc edition in 9.10 damn10:39
slytherinsmb: My machine is powerpc. So I will need a powerpc kernel.10:39
smbslytherin, ok, seems that was what apw wanted to tell me10:39
slytherinsmb: I don't know how the kernel packages in Ubuntu work otherwise I could have tried to build it myself.10:39
smb:)10:39
slytherinI wish PPAs supported powerpc. :-(10:41
smbslytherin, Yeah, that would be nice. Fortunately I can use a porter...10:42
slytherinsmb: By the way I didn't understand your comment - "seems to be one coming down from stable."10:45
smbslytherin, There is an upstream 2.6.31.y tree which gets fixes for a certain amount of time (usually until the next version starts being developed)10:46
smbslytherin, Some of the 2.6.32 fixes get sent to that stable tree in parallel if they are deemed to be important bug fixes10:46
slytherinsmb: right, but I didn't find the fix in 2.3.31.y tree. Or may be I misread the change history of that tree.10:47
smbslytherin, No its the thing just being through review. I just happen to be on that reviewers list... ;-)10:47
slytherinOh. That is great. So It is like that the change will land in .31 tree and eventually in karmic-updates eventually right?10:48
smbGiven nobody screams it would be in 2.6.31.6 and then make its way to karmic too. Though the process is a bit slow. Definitely it will help if you can verify the fix in the test kernel 10:49
smbslytherin, The kernel is building now, I will update the bug with a link to download it, when it is finished10:51
slytherinsmb: I will test it tonight (about 6 hours from now).10:52
smbslytherin, Great, the kernel should be there by then10:52
smbapw, Gah, could you have a look at bug 464552? Can't remember anything really suspend/resume related changing... You?10:58
ubot3Malone bug 464552 in linux "suspend_test_finish warning triggers too easily, increase timeout to match mainline times" [Low,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/46455210:58
apwsmb ... something bad happening on that bug?11:00
smbapw, sort of. someone claiming it broke his suspend (the kernel update) and this one getting marked verification-failed11:00
* apw bets its just another falsey11:01
apwpeople do not get what that change does, not what it means11:01
smb... which could delay the import 2.6.31.5 with 2.6.31.6 rolling its way... :(11:01
smbapw, Actually I can't really see any of the changes being related to suspend/rsume11:02
apwsmb, nope none that i recall11:02
smbapw, The only one, maybe, is the change to usb which might make things half working and then breaking susp/res11:03
apwyep tend to agree there11:03
smbapw, Could you probably make a test kernel, taking out that and let that be retried?11:04
apwsmb, yep ... have asked him to test the basic as he says 'doesn't work' which is no use11:06
apwwill get a kernel together now11:07
Keybuksmb: did you upload a new kernel to karmic?11:08
smbKeybuk, One, yes11:09
Keybukis that in -proposed or -updates ?11:09
smbKeybuk, -proposed11:09
apwand failing validation right now11:09
Keybukoh, what's failing to validate?11:09
smbsuspend/resume aparantly but not sure11:09
apwthe problem is there are 200 bugs dup'd on that one, so we are onto a loser11:10
apwits unlikely that patch is the issue for sure11:10
apw(if there even is an issue)11:11
loolNg: Didn't experience this Xorg thing you get; flashing capslock means kernel is alive though, so you might want to connect over SSH11:11
Keybukerr11:11
KeybukI thought Flashing Capslock meant kernel panic? :p11:11
apwflashing by itself means panic normally, a working capslock means something else11:12
Keybukthe caps lock light should use morse to output the entire panic dump ;)11:12
apwKeybuk, that has been suggested, and actually one of our guys has played with some h/w to receieve it11:13
Keybukthat would be Colin wouldn't it?11:14
apwKeybuk, steve and colin actually yeah11:45
Keybukapw: it had a Colinishness about it ;)11:45
apwyeah mad as a spoon :)11:47
apwsmb, ok my plan is to produce two test kernels, the first will revert just the change introduced by the bug itself, to confirm (as we know) that the patch is tooo trivial to be the cause of any issues, the second to revert just the usb patch11:48

ckingapw, I'm not quite that mad15:14
rtgsmb, apw: whats the story on those ureadahead trace patches?17:52
apwthey modificy the tracing sligthly to allow ureadahead to get more information to allow it to work out wihich executabled are in use17:53
rtgare we gonna do 'em for Karmic?17:53
rtgapw, actually, I was wondering why they weren't in the last upload, but I see that they are.17:54
rtg7423c4c3b22816168b912c39a0298227076854b817:54
apwyep, they are in the current -proposed kernel, Keybuk has an exception for ureadahead as i understand things17:54
cking_they produce some excellent results BTW18:03
