[00:09] <nagappan> Hi, can someone help with this issue - http://picasaweb.google.com/nagappan/Ubuntu101064Issue#
[00:09] <nagappan> http://pastebin.com/zksj5Q29
[00:09] <nagappan> Ubuntu kernel crash
[00:12] <nagappan> it works fine with 2.6.35-21-generic, but fails with 2.6.35-22-generic / 2.6.35-23-generice
[00:12] <nagappan> the issue happens with Ubuntu 10.10
[00:12] <nagappan> 64bit
[00:12] <nagappan> above pastebin is lspci info
[00:13] <nagappan> its DELL Precession T3500 4 Core 6 GB Memory
[00:13] <nagappan> if you need any other info, please let me know
[00:15] <UndiFineD> nagappan, something with ahci : some sort of usb? device
[00:16] <nagappan> UndiFineD, interesting, let me check, but I doubt some USB device is connected
[00:17] <UndiFineD> oh no: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Host_Controller_Interface
[00:18] <nagappan> UndiFineD, :-)
[00:18] <nagappan> GE cr3 :-)
[00:19] <nagappan> cr3, its been long long time, how are you doing ?
[00:19] <UndiFineD> nagappan, so it is your disk / disk controller
[00:20] <nagappan> UndiFineD, interesting, the same works with older kernel
[00:23] <nagappan> UndiFineD, found info about HD, its connected through 5.25" Trayless SATA - Hot Swap Drive Bay - www.startech.com
[00:24] <UndiFineD> hmm, that might cause issues sometimes
[00:24] <UndiFineD> seen it before
[00:24] <nagappan> Compatibility - SATA/300 (STAT II) or SATA/150 hard drives
[00:24] <nagappan> UndiFineD, interesting
[00:25] <cr3> nagappan: hey dude, long time indeed! whatcha been up to?
[00:25] <nagappan> UndiFineD, this system works fine with Ubuntu 9.10 / 10.04
[00:25] <nagappan> cr3, ya just usual :-)
[00:25] <cr3> nagappan: sounds like you're getting old too :)
[00:26] <cr3> seems that as I grow older, things seem more like the same
[00:26] <nagappan> UndiFineD, we never had any issue, even with 10.10 2.6.35-21-generic as well
[00:26] <UndiFineD> nagappan, I had lots of issues with hotswap ide brackets, loose connections
[00:26] <nagappan> cr3, ya, you are right :-)
[00:26] <nagappan> UndiFineD, but this drive is just fixed as CD drive
[00:27] <nagappan> UndiFineD, any work around other than using older kernel ;-)
[00:27] <UndiFineD> oh it is a laptop hotswap thing sitting there instead of the cd tray ?
[00:27] <nagappan> UndiFineD, exactly
[00:28] <UndiFineD> well, I would install the older kernel then
[00:31] <nagappan> UndiFineD, :-D http://us.startech.com/product/HSB100SATBK-525-Tray-Less-SATA-Hot-Swap-Bay
[00:31] <nagappan> UndiFineD, but to test the product, we need latest Ubuntu 1
[00:31] <nagappan> UndiFineD, I mean latest released version
[00:31] <nagappan> UndiFineD, BTW, I work for VMware
[00:31] <nagappan> UndiFineD, also with few Ubuntu folks ;-)
[00:33] <UndiFineD> ok nagappan : be sure there are no loose connections or dirt in between
[00:34] <UndiFineD> i have seen such devices fail often
[00:34] <nagappan> UndiFineD, the same works with older kernel and other hard disk
[00:34] <nagappan> UndiFineD, we have never faced any issue earlier, atleast last 2 years
[00:34] <UndiFineD> still, when opened/closed often enough these things wear down
[00:34] <nagappan> UndiFineD, ok
[00:35] <UndiFineD> hmmm, well how about using a newer kernel ?
[00:48] <nagappan> UndiFineD, with todays update it still fail to work :-(
[00:49] <UndiFineD> tried this alpha1 kernel ?
[00:51] <nagappan> UndiFineD, with 10.10 latest update today
[00:52] <UndiFineD> so no 2.6.37-6/7
[00:56] <nagappan> UndiFineD, yes no 2.6.37
[00:56] <nagappan> oops, bad typing
[00:57] <nagappan> UndiFineD, no 2.6.37
[00:58] <UndiFineD> todays alpha release did not cause many problems for me, you might want to try and see if this does work for you
[00:59] <UndiFineD> \o/ finally finished installing: Kubuntu Alternate i386 - expert -  manual partition - entire disk encrypted
[01:21] <nagappan> UndiFineD, okay
[08:55] <primes2h> 'morning ara
[08:56] <ara> good morning primes2h
[09:01] <primes2h> ara: I still can't set up dev environment for the tracker. I worked out the ident problem changing ident to trust in pg_hba.conf file
[09:02] <primes2h> but now i get "database "qatracker" does not exist"
[09:03] <primes2h> ara: it should be as I reconfigured drupal following the wiki
[09:04] <ara> primes2h, did you create the database manually and put the needed permissions?
[09:04] <primes2h> I even installed Karmic to avoid the need of downgrading php
[09:05] <primes2h> ara: no
[09:05] <ara> primes2h, it is one of the steps of the wiki page
[09:06] <primes2h> ara: oh sorry, yes, I dropped the default drupal db and rerunning drupal config
[09:06] <ara> did you select qatracker as database?
[09:06] <ara> so, what step tells you "qatracer" does not exists?
[09:06] <primes2h> sure, qatracker as db, qatracker as username , qatracker as password
[09:07] <primes2h> ara: when I try to populate the db
[09:07] <primes2h> psql qatrcker < etc
[09:07] <jibel> primes2h, hello
[09:08] <primes2h> usung qatrcker user
[09:08] <primes2h> using
[09:08] <primes2h> hello jibel
[09:08] <jibel> primes2h, did you create the qatracker
[09:08] <jibel> primes2h, I've been able to setup the dev env with ara's instructions.
[09:09] <jibel> primes2h, qatracker db I mean.
[09:09] <primes2h> jibel: did you use a VM?
[09:09] <jibel> primes2h, yes.
[09:09] <jibel> primes2h, lucid
[09:10] <jibel> primes2h, the problem I had was that the qatracker db and the associated user were not created.
[09:11] <primes2h> jibel: you mena within postrgres?
[09:11] <primes2h> s/mena/mean
[09:11] <jibel> primes2h, right
[09:11] <jibel> primes2h, So I logging in as postgres and issued
[09:11] <jibel> createuser qatracker
[09:11] <jibel> createdb qatracker
[09:12] <jibel> then you connect to template1 as postgres
[09:12] <jibel> and set the password for the user qatracker
[09:13] <jibel> something like "alter user 'qatracker' set password 'übersecretpassword'"
[09:13] <jibel> populate the db
[09:13] <jibel> and follow the remaining steps on the wiki.
[09:13] <primes2h> jibel: I thought that drupal config had to take care of that.
[09:13] <jibel> primes2h, db-config sucks.
[09:14] <primes2h> jibel: I see ;-)
[09:18] <ara> primes2h, can you add those steps to the wiki, please?
[09:19] <jibel> I planned to redo a fresh install and update the wiki, but please primes2h go for it :-)
[09:45] <primes2h> jibel: ara: now I try those steps and then I'll do it asap. Thanks a lot
[09:45] <jibel> primes2h, you're welcome
[10:13] <primes2h> jibel: now it works perfectly. :-)
[10:14] <jibel> primes2h, Cool!
[10:15] <primes2h> ara: would you mind providing me a dump of laptop tracker? when you have time of course...
[10:21] <ara> primes2h, can you please me send me an email. I am a bit overloaded now, and I will forget otherwise
[10:22] <ara> primes2h, thanks!
[10:22] <primes2h> ara: sure!
[10:22]  * primes2h hugs ara and jibel
[10:23]  * ara hugs you both!
[14:39] <jibel> ara, can you repackage mago for natty when you have minute. Its broken currently and doesn't installs. Thanks.

[14:44] <ara> jibel, sure
[15:10] <jibel> ara, thx

[18:48] <tarvid> i can restore panels with gnome-panel but my brightness control doesn't work on Acer 7736Z
[18:48] <tarvid> this is natty upgraded today
[18:48] <tarvid> this is a regression from natty about a month ago
[19:19] <fader_> tarvid: Your best bet is to open a terminal and say "ubuntu-bug linux"
[19:19] <fader_> It's likely a kernel issue, so that will collect all the relevant logs and so forth and add them to a launchpad bug
[19:19] <fader_> (And if it turns out to not be a kernel issue, that will provide the kernel team enough information to triage it properly and get it to the right people)

[19:20] <fader_> (Sorry if you get that twice; I lost my network connection for a moment)
[19:20] <tarvid> thanks
[19:22] <tarvid> thanks
[19:22] <fader_> tarvid: Thank you for testing and reporting bugs! :)
[19:23] <tarvid> by adding Option "RegistryDwords" "EnableBrightnessControl=1" to the failsafe xorg.conf I now have a bright screen with a brightness control that won't dim
[19:23] <tarvid> thank you too, I suspect hardware recognition
[19:24] <fader_> That sounds like useful info to add to the bug report :)  But I can't help you myself, as I've never run into that particular bug
[19:36] <tarvid> has been done
[19:38] <tarvid> I do want to do other work on this laptop but natty is working well enough to continue. This issue is a regression since 10.04.1 which had other problems and earned a won't fix nor backport in Maverick.
[19:39] <tarvid> Almost better to be a guinea pig.
[19:40] <tarvid> Do have another issue which is ftp connection tracking. Was working on Karmic and quit on Lucid. Any suggestions on debugging?
[19:40] <tarvid> I am probably not going to upgrade the server to either Maverick nor Natty alpha, it's my bread and butter
[19:47] <fader_> tarvid: No suggestions, sorry.  You might want to ask in #ubuntu+1 -- there are more active people there generally
[19:47] <fader_> This channel is used for coordinating test development and specific test efforts (like ISO testing)
[19:47] <fader_> It tends to be pretty quiet the rest of the time :)
