evcjwatson: what do you make of bug 536673, given the latest logs?  Do you think something like this is reasonable (http://paste.ubuntu.com/419787/), or should we drop the "|| exit 10" from hw-detect?12:08

davmor2ev: can you look at something quickly?  on the help me boot option on wubi in xubuntu it is going straight into the installer and bypassing the try xubuntu/install xubuntu screen is this known?12:12
evhrm12:15
cjwatsonwait, what12:16
cjwatsonsomething is more wrong than that12:17
cjwatsonGO should never give you "30 question skipped", that's from INPUT - the debconf protocol is out of sync here12:17

cjwatsonit almost looks as though m-a is throwing the protocol out somewhere12:20
cjwatsondo we have a 'ubiquity -d' trace of this anywhere?12:21
evunfortunately not12:22
evand I cannot reproduce it12:22
evI'll ask for a set now12:22
cjwatsonI've left a comment12:24
ara if I find several inconsistencies in edubuntu's slideshow, which package should I file the bug against?12:24
ara any idea?12:24
evah, sorry I just did the same12:24
cjwatsonheh, np12:24
evara: ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu12:24
evunless they created their own12:24
persiaNot according to my apt-cache at least.12:25
evindeed, mine either12:25

evdavmor2: can you pastebin your wubi log somewhere?12:30
davmor2ev: will it be in there?  http://testcases.qa.ubuntu.com/Install/DesktopWubi this is when you run cd helper from the Try or Full install.12:32
evright, in windows open %TEMP% and grab the latest wubi log12:34
davmor2ev: Right ev I'm going to wipe the current wubi log and start it again so you get a nice fresh log rather than the mile long one I currently have :)12:53
davmor2ev: paste.ubuntu.com/41981213:08
ogracjwatson, yup13:10
cjwatsonthanks13:10
ogracjwatson, sorry, missed to put the bug number into changelog13:11
cjwatsonthat's ok13:11
ograhmm, in fact i didnt even know about that bug13:11
ograwasnt properly triaged :/13:11
evdavmor2: and the syslog from after you've been booted straight into the installer, if you can13:35
evthanks13:35
davmor2ev: I got a feeling I know what this is down to you know.  xubuntu still has the old menu system in place so doesn't need the "welcome" screen for selecting try me or install.  If they then used the code from Ubuntu for booting that might be the cause right?13:49
cjwatsonmaybe-ubiquity should only be added if hidden-timeout is set in gfxboot.cfg13:51
evI would think that it would boot straight into the live desktop, not the install13:51
cjwatsonoh, but straight into the installer, that would be only-ubiquity13:52
evindeed, which isn't set by wubi as far as I can tell13:52
cjwatsonI don't know which boot option this particular UI thing is bound to13:52
davmor2ev: http://pastebin.com/HPubqbvF13:52
davmor2ev, cjwatson: Yeah but the current method for booting ubuntu goes straight to ubiquity and you get the welcome screen that then says try without install or install correct?13:54
evinteresting, why on earth is automatic-ubiquity still set13:54
=== ogra_ is now known as ogra
evdavmor2: yes, but that's because we explicitly set maybe-ubiquity on the kernel command line13:55
davmor2ev: so do you want a bug on that one?14:24
evyeah, just preparing an instrumented wubi for you to test now14:24
evdavmor2: can you run this and post a new log? http://people.canonical.com/~evand/tmp/wubi-r185-test1.exe14:26
evdon't worry about restarting into Ubuntu14:26
evobvious take the same steps as before14:27
davmor2ev: do you want the old record on there or a fresh log?14:28
evquite confused as to how automatic-ubiquity is sticking around, but this will hopefully give me a clearer picture14:28
eveither way14:28
evI'll be able to pick out the needed details14:28
davmor2Do I need to drop it on a cd to get the menu up?14:32
davmor2ev:^14:39
davmor2ev: it's going straight to wubi install from the exe14:39
