Kniggediggehi folks, i've got a problem with a RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller (rev 02) does anyone know about that realtek chip problem ?00:07
jiboumans_Kniggedigge: I don't, but a quick google shows several posts on the Ubuntu forums and a few bugs in Launchpad00:08
jiboumans_any of those apply to you?00:08
Kniggediggeyes i think, after a normal reboot my network was down, also when booting from a ubuntu live cd but when booting from a suse live cd the network was up again, so i think i've got the problem with that chip.... do you think there's a go around instead of compiling the drivers by my own ? jiboumans_ ?00:10
jiboumans_Kniggedigge: what version of Ubuntu are you using?00:10
Kniggedigge10.4 kernel version: 2.6.32-22-server00:11
Kniggediggei mean 10.4 server respectively00:12
jiboumans_Kniggedigge: this may apply to you: http://www.backports.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1436322&page=300:12
jiboumans_there's a few solutions linked from there00:12
jiboumans_if not, i'm afraid google's your best resource right now; if you do have a confirmed bug though, please post a bug in Launchpad so we can fix it00:13
Kniggediggeok ill check that jiboumans_  but i think thats a bug for more than 3 years, so i'll see what i can do there...00:14
jiboumans_Kniggedigge: at the very least, hit the 'affects me too' button00:14
Kniggediggebecause when the kernel is using a false module, that does not work with the chipset, its a problem that could be "repaired" ?jiboumans_00:15
jiboumans_Kniggedigge: i'd assume so00:16
Kniggediggeok thanks very much for you help jiboumans_ ;)00:16
jiboumans_Kniggedigge: you're welcome, and good luck00:16
Kniggediggethanks bye bye ;)00:16
* RoAkSoAx wants to kill mysql in lucid00:18
jiboumans_RoAkSoAx: what's it doing to you?00:24
jiboumans_zul will probably want to hear about it00:24
jeremynsorry for the totally off-topic question, but is anyone else have problems looking at discussions on slashdot? specifically, the discussion2 bar where you control how many comments to view has disappeared. i've checked multiple computers and browsers, it's gone on all of them.00:26
RoAkSoAxjiboumans_: trying to install a DRBD Cluster with MySQL replicated and it refuses to install in the way " mysql_install_db --datadir=/var/lib/mysql1"00:26
jiboumans_that's odd.. drbd should be transparent for mysql, no?00:27
andreserljiboumans, it is the! The problem is actually with MySQL, which is not created the test database in the specified datadir00:28
jiboumans_so what hapepns when you turn off drbd?00:29
* jiboumans_ assumes permission issues00:29
* RoAkSoAx gets confused when having two different irc sessions lol00:29
RoAkSoAxjiboumans_: same issue00:29
jiboumans_RoAkSoAx: and different data dir works as expected? /tmp/mysql00:30
RoAkSoAxjiboumans_: nope. It has the same issue so it is something with MySQL for sure00:30
jiboumans_RoAkSoAx: ok, that's just bizar00:31
jiboumans_what error does it spit out?00:31
RoAkSoAxjiboumans_: 100622 19:30:30 [Warning] Can't create test file /mnt/prueba/alice.lower-test00:32
RoAkSoAxjiboumans_: seems to be a known error. will try the fix given at MySQL's website00:32
jiboumans_RoAkSoAx: let me know what it is, i'm curious now00:32
RoAkSoAxjiboumans_: seems that it's apparmor issue!! http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=78222400:35
jiboumans_hmm, we should be more elegant with that00:35
RoAkSoAxjiboumans_: indeed it is00:36
jiboumans_RoAkSoAx: at the very least, the error should say something about 'not allowed because of apparmor settings in $file' or something00:36
jiboumans_RoAkSoAx: LP bug it :)00:36
jiboumans_RoAkSoAx: bonus points for a patch00:36
jiboumans_Putting the mysql profile in complain mode using "sudo aa-complain"00:37
jiboumans_^ seems to be the suggestion00:37
uvirtbotjiboumans_: Error: "seems" is not a valid command.00:37
RoAkSoAxjiboumans_: Will do file the bug! :)00:38
jiboumans_RoAkSoAx++00:38
Kniggediggejiboumans:  you like to know how i resolved the problem ? :D00:39
Kniggediggejiboumans_  i meant sry00:40
jiboumans_Kniggedigge: i'm curious00:40
Kniggediggei just shutdown unplugged the power cable and the lan cable waited 15 seconds, booted and plugged in the lan cable...00:41
Kniggediggeit should be a problem with a thing called NIC, i dont know what it is, but now it works.... :)00:41
jiboumans_Kniggedigge: that's odd.. makes it me think it's a timing issue00:42
jiboumans_Kniggedigge: well, at least it's resolved for you :)00:42
Kniggediggeyes and i hope it will never come back again because it was very very nerve recking...00:42
* jiboumans_ has to move rooms, back later00:43

willembGreetings.  I have just set up 2 servers to try out the uec thing.  Is it possible to convert existing kvm images to xen images to fire up in my 'cloud' ?08:02
jo-erlend_I don't know much about it, but I think you'd only need to install a xen kernel in the guest in order for it to run well in normal xen. But what does xen have to do with this? I thought UEC was based on KVM?08:08

sabgentonshow how to install ubuntu desktop08:20
sabgentonkarmic server never worked this way as it is not a live cd ISO  it is like the old fashioned linux install CD's08:23
sabgentonIs lucid now a live cd style ISO?08:23
f01kertsabgenton: sorry no idea :)08:34
f01kertdidn't look like a live style iso when i booted it...08:35
sabgentonhmm rater disconserting08:35
sabgentonmaybe there is a dev chanel I could take this up with08:36
f01kertshould be :)08:36
willembjo-erlend_: I thought it was xen ...08:37
sbeattiesabgenton: no, the server and alternate images are not live cds; is there a reason why you'd think it would be useful?08:37
sabgentonI want to install lucid from usb08:38
sabgentonsbeattie: http://www.ubuntu.com/server/get-ubuntu/download  show u how but it has a deskop ubuntu tutorial08:39
sabgentonthis never worked on karmic08:39
willembjo-erlend_: Far as I could find out, it is all based on Eucalyptus, and the docs on their ewb page is definately all xen based08:39
sabgentonI want to know if it luicd server truly works from usb08:39
sabgentonthe usb instuctions @ http://www.ubuntu.com/server/get-ubuntu/download looks like a bug to me08:40
sbeattiesabgenton: hrm, so it does. Can you file a bug against https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-website-content08:47
sabgentonok08:48
sabgentonsbeattie: do you recon there's been anyturn around and ubuntu server works on usb     just with bad  instructons or the web site simply has the desktop tutorial  and there is no usbsuport08:50
sabgenton?08:50
sabgentonI'm betting on the latter08:50
sabgentonsbeattie: It would be nice to submit the bug http://www.ubuntu.com/server/get-ubuntu/download shows lucid server has usb suport08:56
sbeattiedefine support: does it work out of usb-creator? dunno, you'd need to try. But https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/installation-guide/i386/boot-usb-files.html describes how tomake it work manually.08:56
sabgentonbut I 'm not entirely shure that it doesn't08:56
sabgentonjust mostly confident08:56
sabgentonthe usb-creator tool and the windows based tools describe after clicking the right things at http://www.ubuntu.com/server/get-ubuntu/download08:58
sabgentondid work on server in the past08:58
sabgentonI did find  an alternative method  but  that is not what  http://www.ubuntu.com/server/get-ubuntu/download is talking about08:58
sabgentonI  belive the problem is most  usb installer  creators  rely on a  live cd image with server  isn't08:59
sabgentonbug http://www.ubuntu.com/server/get-ubuntu/download shows invalid usb suport for lucid server09:00
sabgentonsbeattie: is what i meant09:01
f01kertfixing that should help PXE installs as well hopefully :)09:01
sabgentonbut I don't know if it is turly invalid09:01
sabgentonit is definitely misleading as is show the desktop ISO in the tutoral09:02
sabgentonfor people who have been waiting for  server USB suport  that is going to look  like a stuff / typo more than a just out solution09:04

xperiaoops had a disconnect17:01
johnoyou need to use the smart cd17:02
johnoand reconfigure the arrey to include the hard disk you have added17:03

resnois it possible to send an email without an domain address?17:05
johnoresno - yes, but it would not go any where17:06
SpamapSresno: sure, it just won't be sent on the internet unless the user has forwarded it17:06
xperiajohno why changing the boot order. i have used a existing array to expand17:06
johnoresno - since the domain address is the mechanism to search for an external addres17:06
johnoahh17:06
resnook, i have server with a domain name, but its another system, is it "hard" to confire my local machine to use it?17:07
xperiai need somehow to get the new added disk space in ubuntu.17:07
johnoxperia - let me understand what your doing. you have added a hard disk. to a hp server. restarted it and used the smart CD to add it to the array17:07
xperiaright have done this exactly this way17:07
johnoxperia - your using ubuntu bit ot does not see that the hard disk has grown?17:07
johnoI see17:07
johnoone sec17:07
xperiayes have the same size17:08
xperiaprobably need to format the new space or better to exapnd the file system for the new disk space17:08
xperiain the bios settings all new added disk exist in the array. becouse of that i think it depend now on ubuntu17:09
=== twister004_ is now known as twister004

xperianeed a command that tell me how big "/dev/cciss/c0d0p1" at the moment is and probably a command to expand the existing ext4 filesystem on that array17:14

kirklandttx: yeah, i brought it up to tim last week, so it's not the first he's seen of it20:05
ccheneyttx, well i escalated it about 1.5hr ago20:05
ttxccheney: great!20:06
evidenthello everybody! I have a brand new vroot server and as a first task I changed my shell to zshell using "chsh" where i entered "/bin/zsh" as a new shell. After I logged out then and tried to reconnect as root (via ssh), it refuses the connection and says "Permission denied"... Did I forget anything so I can't get into my server via ssh anymore?20:06
ccheney12:28pm CDT :)20:06
* ttx goes back to his evening :)20:06
ccheneykirkland, i worked with tgardner and couldn't get his kernels to even boot on my box so he had me send the info on how to install enough of UEC and the script to try to replicate the issue himself20:06
hallynevident: /etc/shells?20:06
hallyn(just a thought)20:07
ccheneykirkland, the 12:28pm time was when i sent the script, etc to him after testing the two kernels he sent me that wouldn't boot20:07
evidentwhat about it? can I do anything now to get in again?20:07
hallynevident: nm, just installed zsh, and it does show up in /etc/shells20:07
hggdhccheney: interesting. I had 319 loop devices, 267 vgs, and 266 lvs. After reboot, I have *none*20:08
ccheneythats surprising, usually it sets the back up even when they disappear from euca2ools20:08
evidentwell I can't check it because I am not getting in20:08
ccheneys/the/them/20:08
ccheneyhggdh, hopefully we aren't seeing a kernel bug now too20:09
hggdhccheney: yes indeed. This is most surprising, and sounds more like a problem on kernel20:09
ccheneyi don't know enough about lvm to know how a lv could get locked open when not mounted20:09
hggdhheh. ccheney, you preempted me20:09
hallynevident: you don't have any non-root accounts without zsh as shell?20:09
evidentno not yet because the server was just set up20:10
hallynevident: really i think it has nothing to do with zsh, rather you don't allow root ssh logins20:11
hallynevident: what is a 'vroot' server?20:12
evidentwell but how? I just got this brand new set up server now and all I did was apt-get update, apt-get upgrade and chsh to /bin/zsh20:12
evidentvirtual root server? not a real own server but several virtual ones in one...20:13
evidenti didn't change any ssh settings and I got in just before doing these commands20:13
hallynand the only account you were given was root?20:14
evidentyes because everything else I am supposed to do on my own (other users and so on)20:14
evidentwell I can have the server get resetted, but still am looking for another way to get in20:14
hallynyou don't have any control over boot args or anything, no remote console to do single user boot?20:15
evidentwait there was some way but I'll need to check20:16
hallynat which point are you getting the -EPERM?  I wonder whether you could just 'ssh host chsh'...20:17
evident% ssh root@tinytall.de chsh20:20
evidentroot@tinytall.de's password:20:20
evidentPermission denied, please try again.20:20
evidentI can't find any other way to get access to the server... any idea? Or do I need to have them reset it?20:22
guntbertevident: did you configure login with ssh keys only?20:22
hallynevident: sorry, no other ideas offhand20:24
evidenti didn't configure anything... this is how I got the server from strato...20:24
evidentall i did was apt-get update, upgrade and chsh20:24
guntbertevident: it was only a thought20:24
evident:D20:25
evidentand I am thankful for any help... it's just a little bit frustrating^^20:25
evidentso you'd say I should have them reset it?20:25
jjohansenkirkland: right, I asked tim or andy to look at it if they had time before me, and tim has picked it up20:26
hallynevident: i think so.  and i'm really curious what happened...  i see no apparmor ssh restrictions, no reason anything would have changed20:26
hallynunless your apt-get upgrade overwrote your /etc/securetty or ssh config to disallow root logins...20:27

resnowhats the virtual machine app is easiest to install and maintain? i dont have the extenions for kvm.20:32
ruben23hi i have directory /va/spool/monitor/ on my 1st HDD now i added 2nd HDD and i want to used part of my 2nd HDD to that directory since its getting full, how do i do it20:36
ruben23any ideas20:36
pmatulisruben23: are you using LVM?20:37
ruben23no20:37
pmatulisoh well20:37
ruben23im not using LVM on the first HDD20:37
pmatulisnow you know the benefits of LVM!20:38
ruben23what are my options..?20:38
ruben23yeah20:38
ruben23but are there any ways i can still get the goal20:38
pmatulismaybe move a directory from HD1 to HD2 and then symlink?20:39
ruben23or can i have that directory put to my second HDD..?20:39
pmatuliswell sure, you can put the whole thing there20:39
ruben23but how..? ill create the same directory..on the second HDD..? right..? and symlink..20:40
pmatulismake a partition and mount it on /mnt/tmp, move the files to there, unmount, then mount as /var/spool/monitor20:41
ruben23but the 2nd HDD is new how do i set it to be detected first and be used by the machine20:41
guntbertruben23: symlinks don't work across file systems20:41
hallynhow do i get 'bzr bd -S' to do the equivalent of the '-sa' part in 'debuild -S -sa' ?20:41
guntbertruben23: forget what I said - it was nonsense20:41
ruben23pmatulis: you talking to the second HDD right..?20:42
pmatulisruben23: yes20:42
ruben23so i create partion and LVM..20:42
pmatulisno, LVM is out of the picture now20:43
ruben23ow ok20:43
ruben23so i just create partion and mount it20:43
ruben23where sholud i mount it20:43
pmatulisif you had LVM then you could add the new hd as a physical volume to the existing volume group and then extend your logical volume20:43
hallynah there we go, 'bzr bd -S -- -sa'20:44
ruben23yeah the thing here that /var/spool/monitor have so many files..20:44
pmatulisruben23: obviously you need to ensure no writing to that directory during the operation20:45
ruben23do i really ned to copy..?20:46
ruben23the /var/spool/monitor  on 1st HDD on the second HDD with same directory..?20:47
qman__yes, otherwise you'd lose all the files20:47
pmatulisruben23: re-read my comment20:47
evidentok I have the server reset now... and installed zsh with apt-get20:48
evidentthe /etc/shells file now has /bin/zsh and /usr/bin/zsh in it... which one do I choose now with chsh?20:49
ruben23pmatulis: so sorry im rally confuse, how do your suggetion.. please a little more detailed guide please20:49
Davieyhallyn: The blocker is it needs to be $release-proposed.. The dev that sponsors could do that, but it's tradition to get it correct for the sponsor just to upload it.  The comment about the the changelog was more of a comment.. Personally, i wouldn't normally upload something without testing, and the enduser see "Well $someone said they caught it this time" seems a little unsure.20:54
hallynDaviey: yeah that's why your comment convinced me to push a package to my ppa for confirmation first20:55
Davieyhallyn: Awesome!20:55
hallynDaviey: then if confirmed i'll change to lucid-proposed and re-submit, thanks much :)20:55
Davieyhallyn: you rock.20:56
hallynno YOU ROCK20:56
evidentok now everything is working as it should... zsh running with my settings, ssh port is changed and everything works... but one question: /etc/profile:5: no matches found: /etc/profile.d/*.sh ... I get this message after logging in via ssh. What does that mean?21:09
hallynevident: well it looks harmless, but it looks like /etc/profile assumes that if /etc/profile.d/ exists, there will be file in it;  and you have none21:14
hallyn(mine has speechd-user-port.sh)21:14
hallynyou can probably just rm -rf /etc/profile.d to shut it up21:14
evidenthallyn: thanks! it's gone now... :D21:17
ccheneyDaviey, we have it tracked down to between 2.6.32.15 and 2.6.33rc1 now21:21
King_of_Metalif I want something to be added to PATH on boot (before login), where should I put it?21:36
Kaffienwhat FS would be best for the  NFS share?21:44
Kaffieni'm thinking either ext4 or xfs21:45
hallynKaffien: i'd recommend xfs myself, having been bitten by ext4...22:00
* soren <3 xfs :)22:10
wiretappedis there a way to determine the linux vfs page cache hit ratio?22:45
wiretappedi'm looking in to ways it might be possible with systemtap, using a kernel with DEBUG_INFO, but it seems like there ought to be an easier way22:47
kirklandsoren: so i think i've figured out that vmbuilder -> real hardware problem22:53
kirklandsoren: looks to be the -virtual kernel22:53
kirklandsoren: i installed -generic kernel and it works fine22:53

xperiahello to all.i have inserted new harddisks in the free slots of my raid array in the proliant 530M G2 Server. I have added them also to my existing ext4 array and proved in the bios array config if they were enabled. but when i boot in debain i dont see any of the free disk space. my question is what do i need to do to get the free disk space ?23:38
xperiaehh when i boot in ubuntu i dont see the free disk space. it show allways the same disk space and disk usage as i have inserted the new disks23:40
Kaffienhallyn, how did ext4 bite you?23:49
hallyncorruption.  remounted itself readonly and would never properly clean up after reboot.23:49
