[12:53] <bguthro> I'm not sure if this is the proper place for this, or not - but I've been working with the intel-gfx list to get a particular Dell laptop working (E6410) - I had posted about this here a week ago or so. The guys over at RedHat found a fix, and applied against the lucid 2.6.32 kernel, it works great for this machine. I think it might be worth cherry-picking into the LTS kernel, for these Ironlake chips
[12:54] <bguthro> My original bug was https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28746 - but this was marked as a dup of https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28070

[12:57] <apw> bguthro, i would post the patch to the kernel-team@lists.ubuntu.com and suggest it for lucid in that case

[13:58] <repete> Hi all
[13:58] <repete> can anyone give me a pointer to troubleshooting for swap issues?
[13:59] <astinus> repete: What kind of swap issues are you experiencing?
[14:00] <tgardner> repete, I don't know that we have a page for that, other then 'make it big enough' when hibernating.
[14:00] <repete> afaict, maverick on my device is over aggressive in swapping and I need to understand why and what is triggering the swapping.
[14:00] <repete> I filed Bug #595047, which is not very well named
[14:00] <ubot2> Launchpad bug 595047 in linux (Ubuntu) (and 1 other project) "massive i/o renders the system unusable (affects: 1) (heat: 161)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/595047
[14:01] <repete> In the bug is a description of how I determined to concentrate on swap
[14:09] <astinus> repete: How much memory do you have?
[14:09] <astinus> repete: Output from 'free -m' would be helpful, as would graphing it over time with sysstat or similar
[14:09] <cking> tgardner,  tseliot cannot get access to push to   git://kernel.ubuntu.com/mfrey/maverick-light.git - can you help us set the permissions correctly?
[14:10] <astinus> repete: I guess that 'top -b -n 1' during problems would be helpful too
[14:10] <tgardner> cking, well, you can't push using git:// protocol, and he also cannot push to mfrey's tree
[14:11] <astinus> repete: Equally some output from 'vmstat' showing what your sytem is up to would help, perhaps try 'vmstat 1 60' to gather one minute of data
[14:11] <repete> astinus, this is great stuff, thx
[14:12] <repete> astinus, will try to trigger it (shouldn't be hard) and will add that to the bug

[16:41] <mdz> I was running the upgrader with ionice -c3, i.e. the idle I/O scheduler
[16:41] <mdz> apw, ^
[16:42] <apw> smb ^^  .... mdz interesting ... cirtainly not something the average joe would have done
[16:42] <mdz> I tend to do that often when I'm going to continue using the machine
[16:42] <mdz> my standard command-line upgrade script does it too
[16:42] <mdz> sudo ionice -c3 apt-get dist-upgrade
[16:42] <apw> yeah i wish i'd done that often with other commands
[16:44] <pgraner> mdz: cool let me try that as well
[16:44] <smb> Hm, have not used that much. Don't think it should cause jbd2 to lock so long, though
[16:44] <smb> pgraner, You have the proposed kernel?
[16:44] <smb> or do you want to try once before and after
[16:44] <mdz> apw, it doesn't seem to work as well in 10.04 as it did in earlier releases for some reason
[16:45] <pgraner> smb: I'm just trying to get it to repro first
[16:45] <omry> hi, I bumped into 571422 with my new laptop. trying to do the workaround suggested in the first comment). how do I get grub2 to accept a boot flag for a kernel?
[16:45] <apw> mdz, there are some changes in the stable pipe which may be related ... writeback is borked en-toto as far as i can see
[16:45] <mdz> the idle scheduler used to do a really good job of preserving interactive responsiveness, but in 10.04+ it seems to be less effective
[16:48] <mdz> dd if=/dev/zero of=bigfile bs=1M count=1024 makes my system pretty useless whether I run it with ionice -c3 or not
[16:51] <apw> smb, are the writeback patches applied to anything yet?  that mdz could test ?
[16:52] <smb> apw, I have a test kernel for the sync issue but that does not include that patch about extending faster that writeback is
[16:53] <apw> smb, perhaps we should shove them both in a test kernel ...seeming this is getting to be a much complained of issue
[16:53] <JFo> congrats cnd 
[16:54] <smb> apw, Might be possible. Need to check which bug the rest is and see how well the other one applies.
[16:56] <smb> apw, mdz Test kernels with only the other 12 patches are in http://people.canonical.com/lp585092
[16:57] <smb> err http://people.canonical.com/~smb/lp585092
[16:59] <mdz> smb, what would be the most helpful thing I could do with them?
[16:59] <mdz> given that I haven't been able to reproduce the bug yet?
[17:00] <smb> mdz, Given that, maybe just generically run with the ionice and see whether that feels swifter
[17:01] <mdz> smb, OK
[17:23] <tgardner> apw, what is that arcane git command that identifies in which branch a SHA1 exists?
[17:23] <apw> git describe --contains perhaps
[17:24] <tgardner> apw, nope, no joy
[17:24] <apw> tgardner, i think i've done it via git merge-base
[17:24] <apw> though thats iterative

[17:26] <jjohansen> yep
[17:27] <apw> well thats a bug about stuff missing from a cd, why is that our concern?
[17:27] <apw> or is that a module name ?
[17:27] <jjohansen> it seems to be a kernel packaging issue
[17:27] <jjohansen> yeah ums_cypress.ko
[17:28] <apw> jjohansen, is it even built for server ?
[17:28] <JFo> jjohansen, looking
[17:28] <jjohansen> apw: I have just started looking
[17:28] <apw> jjohansen, and they are intreested in lucid ??
[17:28] <jjohansen> so not there yet
[17:29] <jjohansen> apw: yes
[17:29] <apw> jjohansen, which CD is this, live or alternates ?
[17:30] <jjohansen> both it seems
[17:30] <jjohansen> reported for live and also on alternate
[17:30] <apw> alternate is completely different from live 
[17:30] <jjohansen> alternate is comment #6
[17:30] <jjohansen> right
[17:30] <apw> as in that is a sub-set
[17:35] <apw> jjohansen, ok the built package contains that modules
[17:35] <apw> -rw-r--r-- root/root      8736 2010-04-16 13:04 ./lib/modules/2.6.32-21-server/kernel/drivers/usb/storage/ums-cypress.ko
[17:36] <apw> so the module is there at least on the live-cd's ... i can totally beleive the alternates do not
[17:36] <apw> as that modules is not mentioened in d-i configuration so its clearly not on the alternate cd's
[17:37] <tgardner> apw, it would have to be in a udeb module description somewhere
[17:37] <apw> tgardner, right for the alternate cd's it would, and it is not, but for the live-cd that is the complete kernel package
[17:37] <apw> and its in the kernel package
[17:38] <tgardner> apw, so why do they think its missing from t he live CD?
[17:38] <apw> they are not very clear in the bug, its possible it is all alternate 
[17:39] <jjohansen> apw: I'll ask, I just started looking
[17:40] <apw> jjohansen, ok if its just the alternate cd, then its a simple case of it being missing frmo the d-i configuration and yes its not in there now
[17:40] <jjohansen> right
[17:40] <apw> jjohansen, as they talka bout blades i am suspecting they are netbooting, which uses the alternates i think
[17:41] <jjohansen> apw: indeed, thanks
[17:44] <apw> jjohansen, if thats for lucid, its not going to make it out in a hurry ...

[18:23] <omry> found some info about that as well, but I need some help in applying the patch and getting the driver to build. (I am not familiar with the ubuntu method of doing this).
[18:23] <apw> omry, is that using bcmwl ?  if so you may need the version from maverick
[18:23] <omry> apw, yes - that's bcmwl
[18:24] <omry> what's maverick, the next ubuntu?
[18:24] <apw> i installed the version out of the maverick (next ubuntu yes) archive, i did this by hand i think
[18:24] <apw> (everyone is in a meeting over on #ubuntu-meeting curerntly so you are likely to have poor response)
[18:25] <omry> apw, so you just took the maverick bcmwl deb and installed it?
[18:25] <apw> omry, pretty sure i did yes

[18:26] <omry> (new to ubuntu as I said)
[18:28] <apw> https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bcmwl has links to all the releases and in those tabs should be the .deb links

[18:35] <simar> JFo, ya I have changed that but how to send the bug upstream. I mean according to my knowledge it contains necessary information that it could be traiged. What should i do to set it triaged .... just change the status..
[18:53] <sconklin> simar: if you are asking how to make the Ubuntu kernel team aware of that bug - they already are, since it is filed against the kernel.

[19:06] <omry> aha : kernel source for this kernel does not seem to be installed.

[19:13] <omry> apw, don't you think it's a minor bug in the package?
[19:13] <apw> omry, oh you need to install the headers package for the kernle too 
[19:13] <apw> else the bwcml doesn't build
[19:13] <omry> doing it just now
[19:13] <omry> the bug I am claiming is that it did not fail the deb installation

[19:15] <omry> so I guess it's okay. anyway, looks like it's working

[19:40] <apw> omry, cool
[19:41] <omry> apw, yup. all is well now (including the sleep/resume thing that started this mess)
[19:41] <apw> omry, thats good news
[19:42] <omry> yeah. it means this laptop will probably work almost out of the box on the next ubuntu (almost because users still need to install the bcmwl driver)
[19:43] <omry> one possible problem is that I don't have the battery icon now (I had it before the kernel upgrade).   but since I get a popup when I disconnect the ac, I think it's a cosmetic issue.

[19:56] <lifeless> so I'm running the lucid ppa backport at manjo's suggestion, to see if it helped my wifi - as of yesterday or thereabouts, I can't start VM's now.
[19:58] <tgardner> lifeless, its a known problem.
[19:58] <lifeless> tgardner: ok thanks
[19:59] <lifeless> I'll just stop apparmor for now then :)
[19:59] <lifeless> also on the 2.6.35-6 kernels, my machine reboots every now and then; I don't have any diagnostic data yet - is that known too 
[19:59] <lifeless> ?
[20:00] <apw> bjf, is the any other business section missing from the meeting minutes ?
[20:00] <bjf> apw, have i missed something?
[20:01] <tgardner> lifeless, dunno about that, I'm about to upload an -rc4 based kernel pretty soon which ought to fix it. 
[20:01] <tgardner> ought --> might
[20:01] <lifeless> cool
[20:03] <jjohansen> -> lunch
[20:27] <bjf> apw, i have no clue what you are referring to
[20:28] <apw> bjf the minutes you sent out stop at jfo's last entry, the AOB discussions are missing
[20:28] <apw> at least to my reading
[20:29] <bjf> apw, you are correct, that is very odd, will resend
[20:29] <apw> bjf, as long as the wiki is right i'd probabally not bother
[20:29] <apw> i have assumed it is also short
[20:29] <apw> but not checked
[20:30] <bjf> apw, it gets picked up by ubuntu-news
[20:30] <apw> ahh
