CryWolfIs there an RSS feed or mailing list to track Maverick bugs?21:08
td123CryWolf: checkout launchpad21:08
td123CryWolf: there are a lot of them21:09
yofelCryWolf: there is an rss feed and ML to track *all* ubuntu bugs, but the best chance to get all maverick bugs is to look at bugs tagged with 'maverick', you can't subscribe to tags yet though21:10
CryWolfAh, found the Maverick bug mailing list.  No RSS feed that I can see, though.21:14
jonois anyone having problems with maverick upgrades?21:14
jonoit looks like gconf is part of the issue21:15
td123CryWolf: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/maverick21:15
td123CryWolf: if you open it in firefox, the rss feed is there21:15
penguin42jono: I've not tried doing an update from lucid in the last couple of weeks; but doing updates on the existing maverick installs I've got seem to be working21:15
td123(rss icon in the address bar)21:16
jonopenguin42, this is maverick to maverick21:16
jonojust a dist-upgrade21:16

jonoIdleOne, I am chrooted in to fix it21:22
jonopenguin42, any idea how I fix that?21:22
* penguin42 sighs as my machine upgrade texlive - you don't know how little I care about tex21:22
IdleOnejono: I suggest just leaving it be and let it fix itself21:22
penguin42jono: oh, you're chrooted - I don't think that's helping if it's trying to find the dbus socket21:22
penguin42jono: Why are you chrooted?21:23
jonopenguin42, ahhh so maybe if I reboot and run -f install21:23
jonothat might fix it21:23
jonopenguin42, the X transition too me down21:23
penguin42 -f install always helps :-)21:23
jonolets give it a try :)21:23
CryWolfHrm.  ubuntu-bug didn't seem to report my bug under Maverick.21:24
jonopenguin42, looks like it is upgrading now21:26
jonothanks!21:26
penguin42TTOTD: Don't upgrade libvirt and co while you have vms running21:26
penguin42jono: No problem21:26
penguin42actually, upgrade of libvirt just took out the front end - VMs carried on without a blink21:27
penguin42jono: It's happy?21:36
jonopenguin42, not really, won't start X21:36
penguin42jono: Hey well, X is a bonus21:36
penguin42jono: Which graphics card?21:36
jonopenguin42, Intel21:37
jonoare a lot of people still SOL on X?21:37
penguin42SOL?21:37
penguin42Intel is working fine on this <---- machine, Radeon on this ----> with some tweaks21:38
CryWolfjono: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/KernelModeSetting21:38
jonopenguin42, s**t out of luck21:39
jonoCryWolf, are the X issues with KMS?21:39
penguin42jono: Ahha!21:39
CryWolfjono: It was for me.  Simple fix, and I have a fully functional X now.21:39
penguin42jono: So Intel is being good for me; (i945gm), Radeon I need to edit the grub boot to remove the set gfxmode=21:39
jonoCryWolf, what was the fix?21:40
CryWolfecho options radeon modeset=0 > /etc/modprobe.d/radeon-kms.conf21:40
penguin42CryWolf: I'm running ok with mode setting actually (HD4350)21:41
Jordan_Ujono: Can you pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log ?21:42
CryWolfMine has an HD420021:42
CryWolfpenguin42: Mine is also a Toshiba, which I've found isn't as good as they used to be.21:43
penguin42CryWolf: My radeon needs the set gfxmode taking out; not tried taking mode setting out21:43
CryWolfI don't think mine has the set gfxmode in the grub menu.21:44
penguin42CryWolf: My Tosh laptop is Intel graphics21:44
penguin42an HD4200 should work on KMS21:44
CryWolfAh, I see set gfxpayload.  Now to see what that does.21:45
penguin42CryWolf: See bug 60561421:45
ubottuLaunchpad bug 605614 in linux (Ubuntu) "[ATI] GPU lockup with gfxpayload=keep" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/60561421:45
jonoJordan_U, will try - will need to dump it to a USB stick21:46
CryWolfI assumed an HDxxxx would be ATI, based on my video card description.21:46
penguin42yeh21:46
CryWolfpenguin42: I wonder if it is the same problem I saw.  Did you have a blank screen with a small multicolored line that moves like a mouse pointer?21:48
penguin42CryWolf: No, I find that kills the startup almost completely in weird random ways21:49
CryWolfHrm.  Mine appeared fully functional, apart from no actual X display.21:50
CryWolfThough now I'm curious, so I'll give that a try.21:50
jonoJordan_U, I am having difficulty getting this off my broken laptop21:52
Jordan_Ujono: Can you boot into recovery mode?21:52
jonoJordan_U, it is segfaulting though21:52
jonoJordan_U, signal 1121:52
jonoI can boot into recovery mode, yes21:52
Jordan_Ujono: From there can you connect to the internet, install pastebinit, and "pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log"?21:53
jonoJordan_U, I can't get connected on this machine21:54
jonoI just tried t mount my USB stick and no luck21:54
jonolet me try again21:55
penguin42it's not a happy machine21:55
jonoindeed21:55
penguin42bah, something has broken flash for me in the last few hours21:57
CryWolfHrm.  I seem to be having trouble finding documentation for gfxpayload.  And grub-doc doesn't appear to have any documentation.21:58
yofelwell, gfxpayload can have '=keep (the default right now), =text, =$resolution (replace with one listed by vbeinfo)'22:01
yofelthat are the options that I know22:01
penguin42CryWolf: It's something to do with trying to keep it all in pretty graphics all the way from grub forward22:01
jonoJordan_U, http://pastebin.com/gUmYb3Xv22:01
CryWolfI dislike using options I can't find documentation for.  But for this, I'll give it a try.22:03
CryWolfI also assume that grub-doc containing only changelogs, copyright, and news is a bug.22:03
jonoJordan_U, not sure if that will help pinpoint the prolbem22:03
BUGabundoevening22:03
jonoproblem22:03
jonohey BUGabundo22:03
yofelhi BUGabundo22:04
BUGabundo*very* stupid question of the day22:05
CryWolfpenguin42: "set gfxpayload=text" works.  I'll have to update my bug.22:06
BUGabundothis new announcement of multitouch for maverick22:06
penguin42CryWolf: Also subscribe to the one I pointed to?22:06
BUGabundodoes it work in every HW, or requires touchpads with support?22:06
jonoJordan_U, any ideas?22:06
penguin42ok, new ia32-libs breaks flash22:06
Jordan_Ujono: No, sorry.22:07
CryWolfpenguin42: Probably worthwhile.22:07
jonoJordan_U, ok no worries, I will file a bug22:07
penguin42CryWolf: It seems to cause different problems for different people - some it just kills boot completely, for you it's more subtle22:07
CryWolfIt does seem to cause a lot of problems, though.  I'm surprised it's not a FAQ.22:11
penguin42yeh, how do we get stuff added to the faq?22:12
CryWolfNext trick, figuring out how to permanently change grub.cfg22:16
yofelCryWolf: edit /etc/default/grub22:16
yofelCryWolf: you need to change gfxpayload?22:16
penguin42hi, can anyone on 64bit tell me what version of ia32-libs they have?22:17
CryWolfyofel: Found it.  It's not there, it's /etc/grub.d/10_linux22:18
Jordan_UCryWolf: No, you want to edit /etc/default/grub22:18
yofelCryWolf: do not edit that file, you can change that in /etc/default/grub22:18
CryWolfI don't see it as an option in /etc/default/grub22:18
CryWolfpenguin42: 2.7ubuntu2622:19
Jordan_UCryWolf: set GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=text22:19
yofelCryWolf: add a line with '#GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=text' in /etc/default7grub22:19
yofelwithout the #22:19
penguin42CryWolf: And that's on a Maverick that was uptodate before today?22:19
yofelJordan_U: no need for the 'set'22:19
CryWolfpenguin42: Last update was a day or two ago.22:19
penguin42ok, thanks22:19
CryWolfI wonder if I have an old /etc/default/grub from a previous version.22:20
Jordan_Uyofel: I meant set as a verb not as syntax, but I see that was far from clear :)22:20
CryWolfI'll add that line.  Thanks.22:20
yofelJordan_U: oh, I misunderstood that ^^22:20
Jordan_UCryWolf: The line you want to add is just "GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=text", without the quotes and without either "set" or "#" at the beginning.22:21
Jordan_UCryWolf: You can see all of the possible options for /etc/default/grub @ http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#Simple-configuration22:22
CryWolfLooks like it's set now.  Thanks.22:23
penguin42ok - I can confirm going back to ia32-libs 2.7ubuntu6 gets flash going again; you might want to take a copy from your cache if youv'e still got it22:24
yofelyou mean 2.7ubuntu26 ?22:25
yofelthat version comes from lucid-updates22:25
penguin42yofel: Interestingly I don't - I mean ia32-libs_2.7ubuntu6_amd64.deb which is the one I picked off ftp.ubuntu.com22:26
