| fabbione | NCommander: i still use it on a few sparcs, why? what's up? | 05:00 |
|---|---|---|
| NCommander | fabbione: lucid still doesn't boot even though the upstart bug was fixed | 05:00 |
| NCommander | (although that should probably be SRU'ed) | 05:00 |
| fabbione | doesn't boot how? | 05:00 |
| fabbione | what's broken? | 05:00 |
| NCommander | fabbione: not sure :-) | 05:03 |
| NCommander | fabbione: it makes it into the initramfs, and then goes bust | 05:04 |
| NCommander | fabbione: also, SILO has issues starting d-i it seems (Memory Cache Failure, or something like that) | 05:04 |
| NCommander | fabbione: I'd love to fix it, but I'm a little short on time these days sadly :-/ | 05:04 |
| fabbione | i have less than 6 hours, then I am on vacation and work travel til mid April | 05:04 |
| fabbione | i don't think i can do anything about it | 05:04 |
| fabbione | just don't have time for it | 05:07 |
| fabbione | NCommander: my suggestion would be to boot with that initramfs option that stops as soon as you hit initramfs | 05:07 |
| NCommander | fabbione: hrm, any recommended volunteers? :-) | 05:07 |
| fabbione | and then go step by step to see where it goes boom | 05:07 |
| fabbione | no idea.. people are kind of losing interest in Ubuntu | 05:08 |
| fabbione | and my machines will be converted fairly soon to something else | 05:08 |
| fabbione | unless Lucid is spectacularly stable on x86, it's going away | 05:08 |
| NCommander | fabbione: what makes you say that? | 05:11 |
| fabbione | mostly the amount of complains i hear from people that still think I am working for Canonical | 05:12 |
| fabbione | "this doesn't work.. bug is here, nobody fixed it. i had to move on to $random_other_distro" | 05:12 |
| fabbione | and most of those bugs are fairly generic stuff that hit lots of users (that I can say from experience) | 05:13 |
| NCommander | fabbione: I know what you mean unfortunately :-/. <- *ubuntu on ARM guy, with some powerpc, ia64, and sparc) | 05:13 |
| fabbione | checking bug xy, opened for months, nobody cared to even look at it | 05:13 |
| fabbione | as long as there is this kind of response, ubuntu is losing traction towards the community | 05:14 |
| fabbione | and don't get me started on my personal experience with anything >= hardy | 05:14 |
| fabbione | because you would go and commit suicide | 05:14 |
| fabbione | :) | 05:14 |
| NCommander | fabbione: is this why ~ubuntu-clusterfuck exists? :-) | 05:16 |
| fabbione | oh no.. that's a lot older than that :) | 05:17 |
| fabbione | it was made at one of the very first UDS'es ;) | 05:17 |
| fabbione | for pure fun.. | 05:17 |
