bryceh | RAOF, dunno if you've run across it but there is some sort of OOM situation that crops up during livecd testing | 01:25 |
---|---|---|
bryceh | RAOF, which has had a tendancy to show itself as an X crash somewhere in the error handling logic | 01:25 |
RAOF | bryceh: I don't do much livecd testing, so I haven't hit it. Fun! | 01:25 |
bryceh | I've put in some patches for those crashes, but the root cause of the OOM situation remains a mystery | 01:26 |
bryceh | RAOF, anyway, it's been sort of wack-a-mole. Fix a crash today, wait a couple days, and see where X crashes next. :-) | 01:31 |
bryceh | RAOF, so keep an ear open for people with bugs like this one - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/720445 | 01:31 |
ubot4 | Launchpad bug 720445 in xorg-server (Ubuntu) "Xorg crashed with SIGSEGV in _start() (affects: 1) (heat: 10)" [Medium,New] | 01:31 |
bryceh | specifically, the pattern in the Xorg.0.log - http://launchpadlibrarian.net/64482277/XorgLogOld.txt | 01:32 |
bryceh | it's a sudden spew of "[ 191.259] (WW) intel(0): intel_uxa_prepare_access: bo map failed: Cannot allocate memory" followed by a crash somewhere in the error handling stack | 01:32 |
RAOF | We don't have memory details in the apport crashes, do we. | 01:33 |
bryceh | unfortunately no | 01:34 |
bryceh | I don't think I had that problem when installing from CD. maybe using usb keys it's different? | 01:35 |
RAOF | Possibly? | 01:36 |
bryceh | RAOF, so far, it's entirely been canonical people (mostly in the testing teams) who have reported these kinds of bugs, not community folk in the general public | 01:36 |
bryceh | so that seems odd | 01:36 |
RAOF | Something has to be leaking memory somewhere, and it has to be pretty early into boot. | 01:37 |
RAOF | It's even possible that it's the union filesystem we use. | 01:37 |
* bryceh nods | 01:37 | |
* RAOF wants a faster laptop. Maybe with 8 processors, or something. | 01:38 | |
bryceh | given that we don't (afaik) have such a memory leak outside the livecd environment, it makes me doubtful that it's X leaking, however anything's possible I suppose | 01:38 |
RAOF | It could be something in the live environment that X isn't handling. | 01:38 |
RAOF | Any of these crashes with anything but intel? | 01:38 |
bryceh | all have been with intel | 01:38 |
bryceh | it might not be significant though, I think the vast majority of the testing hw is intel gfx | 01:39 |
RAOF | Yeah. | 01:39 |
RAOF | …-Wl,-rpath,:::::::::::::::. Really, compiz? Really? You need to check all those empty linker paths? | 01:43 |
bryceh | RAOF, I'm getting towards EOD... any bits or patches you need uploaded? | 03:10 |
bryceh | ᑕᓗᖑᓱ ᑕᓗᖑᓱ ᑕᓗᖑᓱ | 03:12 |
RAOF | mesa would be nice. | 03:12 |
RAOF | Um, ??? | 03:12 |
bryceh | been having xkeyboard-config fun today ;-) | 03:12 |
RAOF | What was that string? :) | 03:13 |
bryceh | it was "blah blah blah" in Canadian Inuktitut | 03:13 |
RAOF | :) | 03:13 |
bryceh | which I've never heard of before but has nice letter forms | 03:13 |
bryceh | looks easy to draw in snow or polar bear hides | 03:14 |
RAOF | :) | 03:14 |
RAOF | I haven't yet tested the final mesa build on my netbook (stupid i386!), though it should be good. | 03:14 |
bryceh | got a .dsc or git branch ready for mesa? | 03:14 |
RAOF | http://cooperteam.net/Packages | 03:15 |
bryceh | ok, I think with mesa especially, I shouldn't upload at EOD | 03:15 |
bryceh | but I'll load it on a few systems tomorrow and test it out, and if it looks good will upload it | 03:15 |
RAOF | Yeah, good call. | 03:16 |
RAOF | I might have the various other pieces of the r600g switch ready by then, so we could do that at the same time, or in a subsequent upload. | 03:17 |
* bryceh snags and starts a build | 03:17 | |
bryceh | sounds good | 03:17 |
bryceh | I tend to favor being prolific with uploads when we're not in release crunch; it can give folks extra versions to test, which can help in narrowing down when issues appeared | 03:18 |
RAOF | Right. | 03:18 |
bryceh | RAOF, changelog should mention the -1ubuntu[23] changes too | 03:23 |
bryceh | the two patches can be dropped, but the libudev-dev change needs mentioning | 03:23 |
RAOF | The 1ubuntu[2,3] changes are in the changelog. | 03:24 |
RAOF | Ah, but I forgot to include the Debian revisions in the .changes, however. | 03:25 |
bryceh | oh I mean in the 'Remaining Ubuntu changes' section | 03:25 |
RAOF | Oh, right. | 03:26 |
alex_mayorga | bryceh: ping | 03:46 |
bryceh | yeah | 03:50 |
alex_mayorga | I've updated bug 713781 | 03:52 |
ubot4 | Launchpad bug 713781 in xserver-xorg-video-nouveau (Ubuntu) (and 1 other project) "[natty] Video corruption on kernel 2.6.38-1-generic and nVidia Corporation GT216 [GeForce GT 230M] (rev a2) (affects: 1) (heat: 10)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/713781 | 03:52 |
alex_mayorga | please let me know if anything else is needed | 03:52 |
alex_mayorga | still not working on 2.6.38-3 | 03:53 |
alex_mayorga | should I rename it | 03:53 |
bryceh | alex_mayorga, thanks. I can take care of that | 03:53 |
alex_mayorga | should I gather something on the working 2.6.37? | 03:54 |
alex_mayorga | bryceh: thanks to you for caring :) | 03:54 |
RAOF | Is that the one I responded to… | 03:55 |
* RAOF wonders, and checks. | 03:55 | |
bryceh | RAOF, yep | 03:55 |
bryceh | RAOF, let me know if you'd rather do the upstreaming | 03:55 |
bryceh | alex_mayorga, no that's not necessary, although it might be nice to know what version last worked properly for you | 03:56 |
RAOF | Nah, I'm happy for you to upstream. | 03:56 |
alex_mayorga | 2.6.37-12-generic | 03:56 |
alex_mayorga | bryceh: that's in comment #5 | 03:57 |
bryceh | great thanks | 03:57 |
bryceh | alex_mayorga, one thing to try, if you can reproduce it on a livecd or liveusb, is to try booting the i386 image. Could be a 64bit specific issue. | 04:01 |
alex_mayorga | bryceh: which one should I try? daily? | 04:02 |
alex_mayorga | would need to find a USB though | 04:02 |
bryceh | a daily would be fine, whatever works for you | 04:02 |
alex_mayorga | I'd give it a try if I find a big enough USB | 04:04 |
bryceh | ok, forwarded as https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34371 | 04:18 |
ubot4 | Freedesktop bug 34371 in Driver/nouveau "[natty] Video corruption on kernel 2.6.38-1-generic (and on -3) and nVidia Corporation GT216 [GeForce GT 230M] (rev a2)" [Normal,New] | 04:18 |
bryceh | alex_mayorga and RAOF, please add yourselves to the CC of that bug ^^ | 04:19 |
alex_mayorga | bryceh: done, thanks! | 04:20 |
lilstevie | I am having a problem with X not giving me any output into why it isnt outputting to the display, is there anything better than invoking X with -verbose 20? | 12:30 |
tjaalton | which release? | 12:31 |
lilstevie | 1.9.0 | 12:32 |
tjaalton | so ubuntu 10.10? | 12:32 |
lilstevie | yes | 12:33 |
tjaalton | livecd or did it break by itself? | 12:33 |
lilstevie | http://pastie.org/1570123 <- this is the output | 12:33 |
lilstevie | armel | 12:33 |
lilstevie | never had it running | 12:33 |
tjaalton | fix the kernel first | 12:34 |
tjaalton | there are no input devices it seems | 12:34 |
lilstevie | well thats because GPIO buttons and touch screen are the only input devices | 12:34 |
lilstevie | what is wrong with the kernel? | 12:35 |
tjaalton | still, it's either kernel or udev failing | 12:35 |
tjaalton | not X | 12:35 |
lilstevie | ok | 12:36 |
tjaalton | no device has ID_INPUT set by udev | 12:36 |
lilstevie | hm ok | 12:36 |
tjaalton | so either the kernel has no such devices or udev fails otherwise | 12:36 |
tjaalton | hum no, it did find the touchscreen | 12:37 |
lilstevie | ok so that is stopping X from working | 12:37 |
lilstevie | the backlight of the lcd flashes on and off | 12:37 |
tjaalton | dunno why config/udev spams the log like that | 12:38 |
tjaalton | if there's natty alpha2 image for arm, you could try that if it fails the same way | 12:39 |
lilstevie | heh | 12:39 |
tjaalton | bbl-> | 12:39 |

bigon | hi when compiling examples of champlain from GIT on natty I get | 15:38 |

Darxus | Might be worth cherry picking this, required for wayland outside of X with nouveau: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/nouveau/linux-2.6/commit/?id=8e645575d469bf08c9d5d98a101ef4cfce6a9180 | 17:42 |
Darxus | Although I don't know if everything else needed is already in the natty kernel. | 17:42 |
tjaalton | roughly 80 bugs against fglrx-installer (out of the 370 filed) where the kernel module failed to build | 17:51 |
tjaalton | because there were unofficial kernel packages installed, and dkms barfed | 17:51 |
Sarvatt | tjaalton: you missed the cleanup of those about 2 months ago too, was closer to 800 :) | 17:52 |
Sarvatt | across all the dkms packages | 17:52 |
tjaalton | Sarvatt: and no-one thought about fixing the root problem?-) | 17:52 |
tjaalton | anyway, it should be doable | 17:53 |
tjaalton | bbl-> | 17:53 |
Sarvatt | tjaalton: what do you mean? we did at the time | 17:55 |
Sarvatt | oh you mean just the ones with unofficial kernel packages? | 17:56 |
Sarvatt | missed that part, sorry | 17:56 |
tjaalton | yeah, now that there are mainline builds etc that people are testing.. | 18:01 |
tjaalton | closed over 30 "fixed upstream" bugs today, another batch waiting for tomorrow | 18:02 |
bryceh | tjaalton, thanks for tending to those | 18:57 |
tjaalton | bryceh: was a refreshing experience :) | 21:30 |
bryceh | tjaalton, I think I can even see the dent it made - http://www.bryceharrington.org/X/Reports/ubuntu-x-swat/totals.svg | 21:31 |
bryceh | or maybe not, that's a humongous graph :-) | 21:32 |
tjaalton | yeah I've been cleaning some bugs along these past two weeks, at least the "remainder" is going down :) | 21:33 |
bryceh | tjaalton, btw I'm sure I've shown you this already but in case not - http://www.bryceharrington.org/X/Reports/ubuntu-x-swat/totals-natty-workqueue.svg | 21:33 |
bryceh | I ended up not really worrying about _total_ bug reports, but rather focusing on bug reports against the current development version | 21:33 |
tjaalton | but speaking of natty, I should test wacom a bit. noticed that there's some crasher reported recently | 21:33 |
tjaalton | yeah | 21:33 |
bryceh | which I've found to be a lot more tractable | 21:33 |
bryceh | and the 'workqueue' variant shows bugs that aren't already incomplete/upstreamed/fix-committed so it's just bugs we have to actually look at | 21:34 |
bryceh | the lines are clickable too so you can go see the exact bugs (more or less) | 21:35 |
tjaalton | yep, nice lists/graphs | 21:35 |
bryceh | also did a tabular view of all bugs in the workqueue - http://www.bryceharrington.org/X/Reports/ubuntu-x-swat/workqueue-natty.html | 21:35 |
bryceh | anyway, I'm probably the only person in the world that geeks out this much over bug graphs/lists. ;-) But I think it's been really useful for keeping on top of bug reports this release. | 21:36 |
tjaalton | i've noticed, the speed of seeing bugs reported upstream (by you) is breathtaking ;) | 21:37 |
tjaalton | um, bad language | 21:37 |
bryceh | hi jaytaoko | 21:40 |
bryceh | jaytaoko, btw, just fyi I've removed the glxinfo call from the apport hook. | 21:40 |
bryceh | jaytaoko, I am guessing you guys don't need it for compiz/unity reports; in any case glxinfo has been moved to universe so not everyone has it installed, and so the apport hook gets errors in those cases. | 21:41 |
bryceh | jaytaoko, if you do need any of the info that glxinfo produces, maybe you can roll it into the unity support test tool | 21:41 |
