[09:36] ZOMG SO TRUE http://xkcd.com/727/ [09:36] hi vish [09:36] saw my last batch of photos [09:36] ? [09:37] BUGabundo_remote: hey, which ones? [09:37] from last weekend [09:37] last days of vacations [09:40] I want to file a bug against the upgrade to Lucid. (Lucid changes lvm fstab entries to UUID) Against what package do I file it? [09:41] I've had boot work with UUID LVM entries, although I agree it's less intuitive. Are you sure it's really a bug? [09:41] Yes, because snapshots have the same UUID as their parent. I ended up with a snapshot of /home mounted on /home [09:42] Oh, good point. I don't happen to snapshot any of my boot-essential drives. [09:42] I needed to remove all snapshots in order to boot properly. [09:42] Or edit /etc/fstab [09:42] Well, a snapshot of /root could come in handy sometimes. Previously, fstab entries where changed to UUID, except for LVM. I don't know why that changed. [09:42] jibel_: hi.. 529847 starts off and title probably needs an update but the reporter wants a retry button essentially [09:43] So, what package is responsible? [09:43] * persia is looking [09:43] starts off differently* [09:43] I don't think it's just lucid though. I think that happened to me for a jaunty->karmic upgrade as well. [09:44] On a fresh install of karmic /dev/mapper/... is used. I'm sure about that. Let me check a Jaunty [09:45] Hmm, you are right. Fresh install is /dev/mapper. Upgrade (also to Jaunty) changes to UUID [09:46] So it's just a general bug, rather than an upgrade bug. [09:46] Yes, then this must have been the first time I upgraded a system with existing snapshots [09:46] Unfortunately grep -n fstab /var/lib/dpkg/info/* didn't show me anything that looked like a postinst that would be doing that. [09:47] So I've no idea which package needs fixing. I'd definitely like to "me too" the bug though: it's annoying to try to figure out what is where by UUID when I'm using LVM anyway. [09:49] There is a bit more. (in Lucid), after I changed the entry for /home to /dev/mapper. First, /home can not be mounted, so you go into a recovery shell and type # mount /home. THen you get: mount: special device /dev/mapper/vg0-home does not exist. Then I did lvremove volumegroup/snapshotofhome. Then mount /home and voila. /home is mounted by mapper. [09:50] So, if there is a snapshot, the parent directory is not even found by mountall. This is probably another bug, so I'll file separately. [09:50] Try booting into the initramfs (break=preinit I think), and see if `vgchange -a y` adds the correct entries to /dev/mapper [09:50] ok, I'll make a snapshot and reboot [09:50] * persia has two lucid systems with LVM: one boots fine, the other consistently fails to set up the /dev/mapper entries [09:51] There's also bug 527666 and bug 557909 if you have +4 lvm volumes [09:51] Launchpad bug 527666 in mountall (Ubuntu Lucid) (and 1 other project) "Waiting for /some/partition [SM] (affects: 26) (dups: 2)" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/527666 [09:51] Launchpad bug 557909 in devmapper (Ubuntu) "lucid hangs on boot because of device ownership (affects: 6) (heat: 40)" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/557909 [09:53] I don't have an issue with 527666, and I have 12 volumes. [09:53] And are the permissions on /dev/mapper/ good? [09:55] I have a mix of root.root and root.disk for reasons I don't entirely understand. [09:56] And some things are just confusing. I have a volume I use as a clean chroot for lucid/amd64 which is root.disk and another which I use as a clean chroot for lucid/i386 (created within a few seconds of the other) which is root.root. [09:56] That's the last bug. In Karmic, the group is always disk. In Lucid, volumes with group disk do not get mounted [09:56] My swap is root.disk and gets used (I'm not sure "mount" is the correct term) [09:57] Actually, my / is root.disk, and that definitely gets mounted. [09:57] Hmm, the new snapshot has 'disk', while the original /home has root. It does get mounted. But now /opt has disk and blocks the boot [09:57] Oh? [09:57] Tricky... [09:57] I don't think it's the permissions. I think it's something more subtle. [09:58] If it's not the permissions, it's the first bug 527666, but that one should be fixed. I always have a drive that can't get mounted, but it's not always the same. [09:58] Launchpad bug 527666 in mountall (Ubuntu Lucid) (and 1 other project) "Waiting for /some/partition [SM] (affects: 26) (dups: 2)" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/527666 [09:58] Now it's /opt again [09:59] vish, but the fixes are different, that's why I would keep 2 different reports. [09:59] ah, after a new reboot, now my snapshot of /home is again mounted on /home [09:59] vish, and a reload button is not the solution for 529847. We'd better try to reuse the running instance of synaptic. [09:59] So, the bug is reproducible if you reboot enough [10:00] alvin: Except, like I said, I have >10 volumes and have never encountered it. This is on my laptop, which is probably my most frequently rebooted device (certainly more than any of my servers or my handheld) [10:00] Yes, we have to find out what the difference is here. [10:02] This reboot I have 2 volumes that don't get mounted , but this time, the right /home is mounted. [10:02] i'll start out by filing the UUID bug, but I'm still not sure against what package. [10:03] jibel_: not the reload button , he mentions "retry option" to reload , this will allow him to close synaptic running already and retry the reload from the sources dialogue.. [10:04] vish, yep "retry" [10:04] Ah, more information. If I remove the snapshot, all filesystems are mounted at boot. persia, would you like to try this? Take a snapshot of one of your filesystems and reboot? [10:04] jibel_: but I not sure what you meant though , feel free to undup it if you want to dealt separately :) [10:04] s/to/it [10:04] alvin: Erm, let me get to a good point to reboot first, but sure :) [10:05] persia: Thanks. I'll be here all day (quasselcore) [10:08] vish, that's the point: do not close the close the running synaptic but reuse it instead. [10:08] vish, thanks for your help on triaging synaptic's reports ;) [10:11] :) [10:11] jibel_: thats a nice idea , unduping it [15:12] persia: You might want to wait with the reboot. Meanwhile, I did a fresh install of Lucid server (daily) [15:13] Everything is fine, as long as you don't create an lvm snapshot. This time I got the grub rescue shell and needed the cd to delete the snapshot in order to boot again. [15:13] alvin: How long should I wait? I'm down to about 4 things to clear before I can reboot, but once I get away from the reboot goal, the list grows again :) [15:14] while I found another bug. You know the ubuntu-server team has taken the sensible decision to make boot messages visible? Well, errors (and plymouth's suggestions) are not visible. [15:14] You should be able to boot in rescue mode (hold down the shift key while booting), and remove the snapshot from the initramfs [15:14] That's a bug in the plymouth theme: which theme are you using? [15:14] persia: No, holding shift didn't work. I got: "Grub loading, and then immediately fd0 not found, disk not found, grub rescue> [15:15] no team. it's ubuntu-server (see bug 548954) [15:15] Oh, you have a snapshot of /boot? [15:15] Launchpad bug 548954 in upstart (Ubuntu Lucid) (and 7 other projects) "Ubuntu servers should display information during boot by default (affects: 22) (dups: 2) (heat: 144)" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/548954 [15:15] No, a snapshot of some empty lvm volume I created [15:15] Ubuntu server had better have a plymouth theme installed, even if just the text theme, or boot gets annoying. [15:16] My servers has it, but it's an upgrade, so I'm unsure how that changes things. [15:16] That wouldn't be nice to people with some intel cards. A lot of servers have those and they show blank screens with a framebuffer or so I'm told. [15:17] Unless you are willing to take the risk and make a snapshot, I would use a spare machine. You can, however, use the cd to enter the root shell and remove the snapshot without touching the rest of your system. [15:24] You don't need to use framebuffer. THere's a text theme that just does text. [15:24] I'd expect it to work on a console. [15:25] anyone having issues with 2.6.32-20-generic+nvidia+latest gdm? i see plymouth but it never makes it to GDM restarting gdm does not work [15:26] gnomefreak: there were some problems with the first -20 [15:26] micahg: thanks [15:26] gnomefreak: is it 20.29 or 20.30? [15:26] Those were with ACPI, and mostly affected thinkpads though. [15:26] not sure im not on it [15:30] vish, regarding https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/561667 Chromium is included in the default Lucid install, and adding a single sentence to a package description which improves usability seem to me (perhaps incorrectly) like a "paper cut" [15:31] ZykoticK9: you mean in the software store? [15:31] it is? [15:31] vish, sorry not "default Lucid install" but "default Lucid repository" [15:31] err... center [15:31] ah ok [15:32] persia: I can confirm that Lucid, installed from cd lists /dev/mapper in fstab for lvm volumes, as it should be. So, it's only on upgrade that this goes wrong [15:32] i was like "huhh?? no irefox?" [15:32] *fire [15:32] sorry maco - wrong wording [15:32] ZykoticK9: ah well , that would be just a bug in the dev release of software center, we usually dont do papercut for those too [15:32] alvin: That matches my experience. Did you already file this bug, or are you waiting for a package hint? [15:33] Waiting for the package hint actually. I have no idea what's responsible for adapting existing stuff during upgrade [15:33] vish, i certainly bow you your expertise in these matters (but this seems like such an easy thing to solve) [15:33] vish: Extending papercuts also to dev releases ought result in more polished stuff on release, no? [15:34] alvin: There's a meeting on now, but may as well ask in #ubuntu-server come the turn of the hour. [15:34] persia: A meeting of the server team? [15:34] ZykoticK9: persia: then every little bug became a papercut , that was why we didnt want to include dev release bugs [15:35] vish: Fair: still good to highlight little easy-to-fix stuff. Lots of stuff isn't easy to fix, and can wait. [15:35] alvin: Yep. [15:35] micahg: linux-image-2. 2.6.32-20.30 [15:36] persia: So, I should ask afterwards? (just informing about the protocol here) [15:36] vish, it certainly wasn't myself who added it to papercuts and i was unaware that papercuts don't apply to Dev releases - so sorry for bothering you with this :) Thanks everyone in bug-squad [15:36] gnomefreak: hmmm, weird, anyways, I didn't reboot with -20 and am waiting for --21 to push through archvie [15:36] alvin: I usually find team members have more time after a meeting ends then when I ask for stuff when they are in a meeting :) [15:36] Good point [15:37] ZykoticK9: no worries [15:37] ZykoticK9: persia: i agree it is easy to fix , hence i mentioned "nice catch" :) [15:37] vish: Indeed :) [16:02] Hi, [16:02] some one said "on aime bien avoir une selition" on a bug [16:02] what does that mean?
