hggdhall: dtchen is currently doing an impromptu 'debugging sound issues' on #ubuntu-classroom00:24
dtchen_too late; I just wrapped.00:38
hggdhheh00:39
bjl-hello00:54
bjl-I believe I may have found a bug with the interaction between printf and pthreads on ubuntu 9.10, anyone interested?00:54
dtchen_bjl-: sure, but it's best to file a bug00:57
bjl-yeah, I just found the no-redirect thing on the webpage, so I'm doing that right now00:57
bjl-I have a little repro as well, it's pretty easy00:57
bjl-basically if you you call printf inside of a thread when stdout is redirected and terminate the program with SIGINT (ie. control+c) then you will never see your output again00:59
bjl-makes some performance tools kind of useless00:59
bjl-you can get around it by using fprintf/fflush atexit, but the behavior is not the same as ubuntu 9.0401:00
bjl-apparently launchpad is having problems01:04
bjl-would you like the repro file?01:04
bjl-just a simple c program01:04

ubot4Launchpad bug 399974 in nautilus "'Keep Aligned' option always resets to 'true' after desktop reload" [Low,Confirmed]01:08
mr_steveIs anyone in here using the lp_stockreplies greasemonkey script?03:08
mrandhmmm...  I wasn't even aware of it.  They have similar things for editing media wiki's that don't require greasemonkey.  does it work well?03:13
mr_stevemrand, yeah, it works great, except for the latest version. It's part of a collection of handy scripts for triaging03:17
mr_steveYou get stock replies with one click, user's karma and team memberships next to their name, comments from the original reporter highlighted a different color, etc. I like it03:18
macomr_steve: yeah i use it. whats up?03:38
mr_steveWell I just installed the latest version from the bzr branch, and I haven't been able to get it to load the default replies. I filed bug #482479, but I thought I'd see if anyone else had trouble, and if there was some trick to it03:40
ubot4Launchpad bug 482479 in launchpad-gm-scripts "LP_StockReplies not loading standard replies" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/48247903:40
mr_steveFor now I've just switched back to using the packaged FF addon from the PPA03:40
mr_stevewhich works fine03:40
hggdhmr_steve: have you tried clicking on the down-arrow to the left of "affects"?04:37
mr_steveYep, it took me a while to figure that out originally, but that's not my problem now. After clicking there, below the resulting Comment field, I simply have [+edit+] and [+reload+], and reload throws an error in the FF Error Console04:39
hggdhin my case, the standard replies are shown in between the "comment on this change" box and the Also affects project line04:40
hggdhbut I will check with firebug to see what hapens04:40
hggdhtomorrow ;-)04:42
mr_stevehggdh, that's where I see them too, with the working version from the PPA. And that's where I only see edit/reload with the latest version from bzr. I'm not worried about it since the PPA version works fine.04:47

ubot4Launchpad bug 459021 in lirc "Remote control commands not processed" [Undecided,New]13:38
nperryThis will probably only get looked into for Lucid13:40
gnarlienperry: what?13:41
gnarlieyou're joking?13:41
mrandgnarlie: seems like there is plenty of community discussion and debug going on there.  If someone stays on top of it, it might be possible to get a patch included in 10.04 / Lucid.  I don't know what the policy is on backporting those kinds of things to a released kernel.13:42
gnarlielirc.org claims 2.6.31 is a supported kernel13:42
mrandgnarlie: am I misunderstanding the discussion in the bug?  Is it not a regression in the kernel?13:43
gnarliewell probably, in the ubuntu kernel13:43
=== fenris__ is now known as ejat
gnarlielirc-0.8.6 has been tested with kernel versions up to 2.6.31.13:43
gnarliefrom lirc.org13:43
mrandAh, so you're saying it is some sort of diff between the upstream kernel source and ubuntu kernel.13:44
gnarlieso releases just get released, wether stuff work or not and then get fixed for the next release?13:44
gnarliemrand: well I can't know if the people at lirc.org are lying13:44
nperrygnarlie: We've squashed most of the bugs during the 6month dev cycle13:45
gnarlieapparently nobody tested lirc13:45
mrandgnarlie: I'm assuming we have no reason to suspect they are.13:45
gnarliemrand: and all I know is that lirc works with older kernels13:45
mrandgnarlie: actually lirc is tested by many people... the problem is that there are an insane number of devices.13:45
nperryI used lirc in about Alpha 2 i believe.13:46
gnarlieolder kernels create dvb-devs in all the wrong places on karmic so that's not an option either13:46
gnarlieudev change maybe13:46
gnarlielooks like I'll be going back to jaunty :/13:47
mrandgnarlie: I haven't studied it, but the links to the external work-arounds don't fix it for you?13:48

_Narc_Hello folks. I'm here for two reasons, I hope someone would be able to help. For months I've had a problem with my router (I thought) so I bought a new one, bla bla, problem still there. Now I suspected Ubuntu so I read the syslog and I foud this : http://paste.ubuntu.com/318620/ . Now I'm not here to get help - though it'll be great - but to know if it's a worth-posting bug. Thanks a lot.14:00
_Narc_I found it's possibly a dupe of bug 482289. Now I wonder if this can cause a router to crash. I know I'm a bit off-topic and I apologize.14:06
ubot4Launchpad bug 482289 in linux "WARNING: at /build/buildd/linux-2.6.31/net/sched/sch_generic.c:246 dev_watchdog+0x1f6/0x210(), maybe eth0 issues? O.o dunno..." [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/48228914:06
gnarliemrand: I think removing lirc-modules-source might have fixed it, I get output from mode2 now14:23
mrandgnarlie: awesome.  Could you add a comment to that bug?  Something along the lines of "be sure to check that lirc-modules-source is not installed... removing it fixed it for me"14:28
gnarlienot sure if it did14:28
mrandok, or at least, improved things... maybe it will help someone else get it that much further.14:30
gnarlieapps arent getting input though14:34
gnarliemrand: now mode2 stopped outputting again :P15:07
gnarlieI just feel like going back to jaunty15:07
gnarliemrand: off-topic but is going back a release prone to break?15:11
dtchen_online forced apt-pinned downgrade? Almost certainly.15:11
_Narc_Hello again... Sorry to insist, but I'd appreciate that one of you kernel wizards have a look on this syslog entry : http://paste.ubuntu.com/318620/ . I'm going mad. I found several duplicates but it's supposed to be fixed in karmic (RTL8111/8168B driver issues). Thanks a lot.15:21
gnarliedtchen_: :(15:21
* gnarlie says "if it's not broken, don't upgrade" aloud15:21
dtchen_gnarlie: well, yes, that's the idea. OTOH, I suppose people love the shiny.15:49
gnarliedtchen_: so you're saying it's very likely to b0rk everything by downgrading?15:50
dtchen_gnarlie: it's pretty likely.15:50

_Narc_I found this in my syslog : alsa-mixer.c: Your kernel driver is broken: it reports a volume range from 18.00 dB to 18.00 dB which makes no sense. Does it matter ?17:24
WeatherGodI am sure it does17:29
WeatherGodwhat is your sound card?17:30
maco_Narc_: dtchen_ said its a known bug17:30
EzraRi get that too _Narc_17:30
macoi think he intends to get back to his comoputer after he's finished with his pizza17:30
_Narc_Sorry guys, my connection is somewhat random these days, I'm testing stuff. My soundcard is an integrated on an Intel motherboard17:31
WeatherGod_Narc_, did you try the backports package?17:32
_Narc_I think I just have it now 'cause I updated to 2..6.31-1517:32
_Narc_But I'm not sure, maybe it was there before17:32
_Narc_WeatherGod: no17:32
maco_Narc_: you could reboot into -14 and find out17:33
WeatherGodtry 'linux-backports-modules-alsa-karmic-generic'17:33
_Narc_maco: Yes, I will.17:33
WeatherGoddoes a lot of stuff for Intel based cards17:33
_Narc_WeatherGod: Oh, would be really good, because I'm almost discouraged now :)17:34
macoarent like 80% of laptops running HDA chipsets? i mean...thats just "does a lot for cards"17:34
_Narc_WeatherGod: I'll try that17:34
_Narc_But just for you to know, the sound is working okay17:34
WeatherGodoh?  That's odd17:35
WeatherGodmaco, yeah, I know17:35
_Narc_I checked in syslog, it did it earlier with -14 too17:36
WeatherGod_Narc_, quite honestly, I defer to dtchen, he really has a handle on all of these sound issues17:36
_Narc_WeatherGod: Ok, the Audio Guy :)17:36
macoought to...been doing it for a decade :P17:36
WeatherGodlonger than I have been using Linux17:37
_Narc_Haha17:37
_Narc_Can you explain to the noob what's backports ?17:38
qenseMade a mistake: I thought my libmtp8 Apport hook was already included, but looking at the results of apport-collect of a reported I asked to use it, it wasn't. :(17:38
_Narc_in essence17:38
dtchen__Narc_: yes, it matters. PA works around it, and if PA doesn't, PA can be configured to do so. It's a linux bug of sorts, but it's hardly anything over which to lose sleep.17:39
_Narc_dtchen_: Ok, so, I'm letting it live its life ?17:40
dtchen__Narc_: if you'd like to help fix it, please file a bug affecting linux (or alsa-driver), and title it "dB misreported for sound card", then tell me the bug report #17:40
qensebdmurray: who's responsible for adding Apport hooks to packages? I'd like someone to review bug 430261 since libmtp would be very happy if it had a hook.17:40

dtchen__Narc_: well, the hardware itself sucks, so not much can be done there. OTOH, it can be worked around to some degree in linux.17:40
_Narc_dtchen_: Ok, I will. With the ubuntu-bug command would do it ?17:41
_Narc_dtchen_: Well, it doesn't affect my sound in any way17:41

I'd be surprised if that is not already possible, but gnome usually hides settings like that.  Might take some digging.  Of course, it could be argued that it isn't a setting that the user is asking for ... it's a different key sequence to scroll line-by-line.19:40

SymmetriaI have 3 identical machines, all with ixgbe cards in them, I get that error when running around 32meg window sizes and downloading traffic at between 1 and 2 gigabit a second after a while, memory in the machines are adequate to handle the window sizes, bug occurs in kernels 2.6.27 -> 2.6.29 (havent tested others)21:40
dtchen_so, jumbo frames, eh?21:41
Symmetriadtchen, standard 1500 mtu21:42
Symmetriaso no, they are standard frame sizes21:42
dtchen_ick.21:42
Symmetriajust very large tcp window sizes to handle high latencies21:42
dtchen_ah, that would do it21:42
Symmetria(I'm using the longest geographic STM64 in existance, 200 odd ms going .za -> mumbai -> london on the geographic path)21:43
hggdhheh21:43
dtchen_right, so either jumbo frames or >> tcp window sizes generally have order-X allocation constraints21:43
Symmetriahence the need for the large window sizes, infact, if I wanna REALLY push it, I have to max those window sizes to a lot larger than 32meg21:43
dtchen_I'm a bit surprised that you're getting them with o-421:43
hggdhand memory/swap is not starved?21:43
dtchen_it looks like there's at least quite a bit of memory fragmentation21:44
Symmetriahggdh nope, swap doesnt even kick in21:44
dtchen_don't need that, really21:44
dtchen_is there any chance of testing a newer kernel in that/those machines?21:45
SymmetriaI can probably take it to 2.6.30 tomorrow during maintenance window21:45
Symmetriaheh, just gotta pick my moment, thats the largest mirror server on the african continent and when it goes down people tend to scream :)21:46

Symmetriadtchen I had a coupla reports that there were some issues with 2.6.31, but no one was to specific, is it stable enough to run on a heavy production server or should I rather go to .30?21:50
dtchen_Symmetria: I really don't know, I've only been following .3221:51
Symmetria:) I'm a little scared of going to an RC kernel on a box that heavy loaded *lol* will try .30 tomorrow when i can reboot and see how it goes, otherwise will file a proper bug report21:53
macoSymmetria: i dont have issues with 31, but id say avoid ext4 on a server...21:55
Symmetriamaco, thats running xfs21:56
hggdhWeatherGod: not really a security issue, but a test CA cert should not be in by default21:56
Symmetria(went xfs purely because I found it tended to perform better with the vast number of files on the system and the huge file churn)21:56
qenseWeatherGod: I'm not sure if it really is a security issue. As the reporter already said it probably isn't used anymore and isn't valid anymore. I would set the status to Triaged, the Status to Low. The package is ca-certificates though.21:57
WeatherGodhggdh, ok just wanted to raise a flag on that21:57
WeatherGodqense, gonna need someone to do that as I am only on bugsquad21:57
hggdhWeatherGod: did you check the certificate is in?21:58
WeatherGodSymmetria, I used to used xfs on a system of mine, but had nothing but trouble21:58
WeatherGodSymmetria, although, it was a patched kernel to take that fs, so I don't know the source of the problems were21:59
Symmetriaweathergod *shrug* I got 2 15 terabyte systems on that machine, and another 3 10TB systems mounted using gluster that are xfs backended, no issues so far21:59
WeatherGodhggdh, no, I haven't21:59
Symmetriamy issues all tend to be network speed/tcp window size related, other than that the box runs flawlessly21:59
Symmetriaheh, hoping to become the first african sourceforge mirror though so need to fix the network issues before I can do that :)22:00
WeatherGodSymmetria, good.22:00
WeatherGodSymmetria, don't worry, everyone will just think that it is the natural slowness of sourceforge22:00
qenseWeatherGod: I would check if the certificate really is installed by default. It could be that the reporter forgot he/she installed it him/herself.22:01
Symmetriaweathergod lol, trust me, things get a fair bit faster in .za once I mirror them, most people in .za have really really bad international bandwidth and plenty of local22:01
WeatherGodqense, true, I'll check mine22:01
SymmetriaI just happen to have tons and tons of spare bandwidth to run a huge mirror inside .za to help people out with opensource content22:01
qenseWeatherGod: If you want to handle the bug so you can use it in your application, just do so. Someone here can then set the status to Triaged.22:01
WeatherGodqense, I wanted to raise a flag on it, because I am no security expert, and wasn't sure if it should have been moved to CVE or something like that22:03
qenseok22:03
qensewell, you say how you want to handle the bug22:03
WeatherGodwell, it isn't on 3.0, that much is for sure22:06
WeatherGodand I don't see it for shiretoko22:09
mrandWeatherGod: since it is an expired cert, I wouldn't think that it is a major concern.  Ignoring that though, do you see that cert in your 9.10 system?  I don't see it on my 9.10 Mythbuntu install.22:14
mrandPerhaps he imported it somehow and forgot?22:14
WeatherGodI am currently running 9.04, I don't like upgrading during a school semester22:14
WeatherGodbad juju22:15
WeatherGodmrand, I am beginning to suspect he imported and forgot... I am just starting up the vanilla FF3.5 from mozilla22:16
qenseWeatherGod: I can't find the certificate on Karmic either.22:22
qenseThe bug is probably invalid in that case.22:22
qenseI'd suggest the reporter to clean his system of old certificate22:22
qenses22:22
WeatherGodagreed, it isn't on the vanilla ff3.5  either22:24
hggdhwell, folks, keep in mind that CA certificates come from the ca-certificates and ca-certificates-java packages, *not* from firefox23:27
joaopintohum, which package should I use to I file a bug for sound stopping when I switch to a VT, and resuming when I get back to X ?23:29
kklimondajoaopinto: I'm not sure if it's a bug23:34
kklimondajoaopinto: try to login in vt23:35
joaopintokklimonda, ah, it plays after login23:35
kklimondathen it works as intended23:36
dtchen_that is *not* a bug23:36
dtchen_that's precisely how PA is supposed to work with ConsoleKit23:37
joaopintook, the login is required for the PA privileges23:37
dtchen_the foreground user has access to /dev/snd/ by design23:37
joaopintook, problem resolved and understood, tks :)23:38
