^AndreA^Hi everyone00:07
^AndreA^sometimes (when I transfer big files) my Ubuntu freezes...00:08
^AndreA^just before doing that it logs some errors in the messages and kern.log logs (that's why I'm here) :-)00:09
beata|lemurFreezes *hard* or just turns into molasses? I'm just a user these days, I'm afraid.00:09
^AndreA^it simply stops responding...00:10
^AndreA^and needs to be turned off manually....00:11
^AndreA^I was wondering if anyone could help me "translating" those messages to English... LOL00:11
^AndreA^something like:00:11
^AndreA^ata8.00: failed command: READ FPDMA QUEUED00:11
^AndreA^ata8.00: status: { DRDY }00:12
^AndreA^ata8: hard resetting link00:12
^AndreA^ata8: SATA link up 3.0 Gbps (SStatus 123 SControl 300)00:12
^AndreA^etc etc...00:12
^AndreA^any idea anyone?00:13
^AndreA^if i limit the transfer (eg: rsync --bwlimit=xyz) the computer works fine...00:15
^AndreA^maybe if I'm in the wrong chat someone could also direct me to the right one...00:17
beata|lemurI'm unsure myself, but it sounds more of a hardware issue than a driver one.00:19
^AndreA^for SMART the disk seems to be fine...00:19
^AndreA^this error says "host bus error"00:20
^AndreA^res 40/00:04:49:21:3d/00:00:01:00:00/40 Emask 0x32 (host bus error)00:21
^AndreA^I've also thought it might be the SATA cable...00:23
^AndreA^even though that one should always work or not...00:24
^AndreA^it shouldn't be something random...00:24

tgardnerogasawara, did you get a chance to use bjf's create-cve-tracker tool?14:11
ogasawaratgardner: I did when I was previously working some cve's14:11
ogasawaratgardner: has it changed recently?14:11
tgardnerogasawara, no, but its had many improvements since I last used it. its pretty handy.14:12

dokoogasawara: please could you have a look at https://launchpadlibrarian.net/67694047/buildlog_ubuntu-natty-i386.linphone_3.3.2-3ubuntu1_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz15:51
dokolinux/videodev.h not found15:51
dokoI did see something similiar in xine-lib and just disabled something in the build. but is this really expected?15:52

tgardnercooloney-afk, it was upload a couple of hours ago. 2.6.38.1207.6 release (main) 1 hour 50 minutes ago15:57
cooloneytgardner: ah, great, thx. i'm just back to home and forget to ping about that before i left for dinner15:58
tgardnercooloney, ogra_ is trying to build some release iamges from it as we speak15:58
=== H0EllenbAErchen is now known as Traumgefesselt
cooloneytgardner: actually i tried to update meta package myself before you are online, but not sure about how to do that16:00
tgardnercooloney, it takes a special kind of magic.16:00
cooloneytgardner: so for this mapping, need i just an entry at debian/changelog file?16:00
=== Traumgefesselt is now known as Phoenix69
tgardnercooloney, yep. I use 'dch -i' to start the entry.16:00
cooloneytgardner: yeah, it is, because i just saw an entry in every git commit log16:01
tgardnercooloney, the meta packages don't have as much infrastructure in the rules file as the rest of the kernel packages. its much simpler16:02
cooloneytgardner: interesting, how does the system know the kernel mapping? just get that info from the changelog file? 16:02
=== Phoenix69 is now known as erhart
tgardnercooloney, the binary packages are constructed using the ABI which is extracted from the changelog.16:03
cooloneytgardner: so just adding an entry in changelog is enough, right? magic to me16:07
cooloneyand it looks like this:16:07

tgardnercooloney, you're right. lemme check whats there 'cause its clashing when I push16:09
cooloneytgardner: no worries, as long as ogra_ got what he want, -:)16:09
tgardnercooloney, well, I do have to get the repo consistent16:10

bekksUbuntu version is 10.10 32bit, using the .35-28 kernel.20:09
bekksAny suggestions on how to debug this further?20:09
bekksIf needed, I have his dmesg and lspci outputs handy on nopaste.20:10
tgardnerbekks, start a bug report from the affected machine using 'ubuntu-bug linux'. that way we can capture some dmesg info20:10

bekksnorthalpha: You're already on working out the "ubuntu-bug linux"20:19
northalphaworking, bu unsure which catergory20:19
bekksNot having it handy - I guess something like "hardware" would be ok.20:20
northalphaChoices:   1: Audio   2: Filesystem   3: Graphics   4: Kernel Config   5: Networking   6: Hibernate/Resume   7: Suspend/Resume   8: Other   9: I don't know   C: Cancel 20:20
bekksI'd choose 4 then.20:20
* BenC wonders why "storage" isn't a choice20:20
bekksor 9.20:20
northalphadont want to fill in a bug report wrong20:21
northalphaA bug is considered a regression if the issue did not exist on a previous kernel.  Is this a regression?20:21
northalphayes or no20:21
