dokoslangasek: ecj, had it seen here, couldn't reproduce it locally01:38
cndmy system currently won't run unity; all unity windows are invisible02:02
cndhowever, the daily build works02:02
cnddaily iso that is02:02
cndso I'm trying to figure out why that would be02:02
cndI don't have any relevant ppas installed02:03
cndI was wondering if there was a way to tell apt to reinstall *everything*02:03
RAOFcnd: Yes - ‘sudo aptitude reinstall ~n’02:13
RAOFNote that will fail if you've got a locally installed package :)02:13
cndRAOF, do you know if there's a way to check for any packages that are locally installed?02:21
cndthat's the first thing I want to try, but I don't know how to do it02:21
RAOFcnd: Well, that aptitude line will tell you about the locally installed packages it can't reinstall :)02:21
cndahh, before it starts?02:21
cndRAOF, should aptitude be barfing all over my console?02:22
RAOFYeah - that actually says “reinstall all packages in the archive”, and relies on aptitude only reinstalling packages that you've actually got installed.02:23
RAOFIt does, however, say “not reinstalling $FOO; not installed” for each binary package FOO in the archive :)02:24
cndahh :)02:24
broderwhy not do aptitude install ~i?02:24
brodererr, reinstal02:24
RAOFbroder: Because I didn't know about that :)02:24
broder:)02:24
cndwhat's the difference?02:24
broder~i matches "all installed packages"02:25
broderso aptitude reinstall ~i says "reinstall all packages that are installed"02:25
cndahh02:25
cndwell, I only had one manually installed package: linux-image-2.6.34-2-generic02:26
cndhmmm.. maybe it only tells me about manually installed packages one at a time...02:28
cndRAOF, is there a faster way than running aptitude reinstall every time to find one missing package at a time?02:32
RAOFThere almost certainly is, but I'm not aware of it.02:33
brodercnd: is the issue that you're missing a dependency?02:34
broderbecause just running apt-get install -f should fix that02:34
cndbroder, the issue is that unity works when I test a daily iso build02:35
cndbut it doesn't work quite right when I run it in my real installation02:35
cndthe unity windows are transparent02:35
cndI've tried all the easy things like reinstalling the mesa libs02:35
cndand all the unity related stuff02:35

alkisgI'm suspecting that early in the boot process, shell's job control is broken, so `command &` in early initscripts doesn't execute "command" at all. I'm trying to debug it now with a Lucid LTSP client, but it's difficult and time consuming.05:55
alkisgHas anyone heard of such a problem?05:55
=== _LibertyZero is now known as LibertyZero
SpamapSalkisg: no but it sounds very interesting06:10
alkisgIn an LTSP initscript we have this: (ntpdate $TIMESERVER && hwclock --systohc --${HWCLOCK:-utc} --noadjfile) &06:11
alkisgAnd it sometimes works, sometimes not06:11
alkisgIf we remove the &, it always works06:11
alkisgCurrently I tried: (echo "CALLING NTPDATE $TIMESERVER"; ntpdate $TIMESERVER && hwclock --systohc --${HWCLOCK:-utc} --noadjfile || echo "DONE NTPDATE $?") &06:12
alkisgI got the output of the first echo, but not the second one06:12
alkisg(not even in boot.log)06:12
SpamapSheh06:15
SpamapSyou're doing this inside initramfs ?06:15
alkisgNo, in an initscript06:16
alkisg/opt/ltsp/i386/etc/rcS.d/S32ltsp-client-setup06:17
SpamapSalkisg: ah, hm. I'd expect it to work quite reliably then.06:17
* alkisg tries some ntpdate parameters, and also to replace ntpdate with a big "sleep" to see if that would work...06:18
=== dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk
sorenalkisg: & works even when busybox complains about lack of job control.06:57
sorenalkisg: You just can't ctrl-c or ctrl-z and such.06:57
sorenalkisg: What do you have before and after that (ntpdate... ; hwclock) &  call?06:58
alkisgsoren: thanks, indeed the problem wasn't in spawning the process, but there's something killing the spawned process06:58
alkisgSo far I have the following tests:06:58
alkisg(echo "CALLING SLEEP 2"; sleep 2; echo "DONE SLEEP $?") & ==> I don't get the second echo06:58
alkisg(ntpdate -p 1 $TIMESERVER && hwclock --systohc --${HWCLOCK:-utc} --noadjfile) & ==> with the -p 1 parameter, "get one sample only", it works because it finishes quickly before something kills it06:59
sorenSomething outside must be killing it.06:59
alkisgSo now I'm trying to find out what kills those processes06:59
sorenHence my question: What's before and after that call?06:59
sorenCAn you pastebin the whole script?06:59
alkisgIt's a collection of scripts, of course I can pastebin them but they're many07:00
alkisgThat line is inside a function in a separate line from the rest of the initscript07:00
alkisgTo make a clear test case, I can write another initscript07:00
alkisgWith just that single line in it07:00
alkisg*..in a separate FILE, not line07:00
* alkisg gets the kids to school and will continue testing with a simple initscript in 30'...07:01

StevenKRAOF: Where is the MPRIS plugin for Do hiding?07:30
RAOFStevenK: http://cooperteam.net/MPRIS.dll07:30
RAOFI could give you source, too, if you wanted.407:31
RAOFI haven't got around to launchpadding it :)07:31
RAOF(Just dragging the dll onto Do's plugin preferences window will install and enable it)07:31
StevenKRAOF: It doesn't seem to?07:34
RAOFHm.07:35
RAOFIt should have added “play”, “pause”, etc actions...07:35
StevenK* (Do:2050): WARNING **: Missing method get_Session in assembly /home/steven/.local/share/gnome-do/plugins/addins/MPRIS.dll, type DBus.Bus07:35
RAOFAwesomesauce.07:36
StevenKRAOF: That's from .xsession-errors07:36
RAOFWhat version of Do?07:36
StevenKRAOF: 0.8.3.107:36
RAOFAh, you're on Maverick?07:37
StevenKYeah07:37
RAOFHeh.  I've built it against Natty, and it's probably picked up the libdbus1.0-cil dep (rather than libndesk-dbus1.0-cil)07:37
RAOFStevenK: http://cooperteam.net/do-plugin-mpris.tar.bz2 ; extract that, install mono-xbuild, and run ‘xbuild’ in the MPRIS directory.07:39
StevenKRAOF: Done. Where does that stuff the .dll?07:41
RAOFbin/Debug/MPRIS.dll07:42
StevenKRAOF: Ah ha. Same install procedure?07:43
RAOFYup.07:43
RAOF(You might have to rm ~/.local/share/gnome-do/plugins/addins/MPRIS.dll first; I'm not sure if we overwrite)07:43
didrocksgood morning07:44
RAOFAloha didrocks!07:44
StevenKRAOF: Neat, that gives a stacktrace in .xsession-errors07:44
didrockshey RAOF :)07:44
RAOFStevenK: Cool!  What's the stacktrace?  I may have mis-coded the dbus paths; I was testing against banshee :)07:45
StevenKRAOF: It is complaining that it can't find dbus-sharp. I can't find the package, either07:46
RAOFBut it built for you?07:46
* RAOF is confused.07:46
StevenKRAOF: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/593448/07:47
RAOFStevenK: Could you remove the bin/ directory and re-run xbuild?  I'm not convinced that it *actually* built.07:49
StevenKRAOF: Would you like the output from xbuild?07:51
RAOFStevenK: Yeah, why not?07:51
StevenKRAOF: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/593451/07:52
RAOFOh.  Right.07:52
RAOFAhem.07:52
alkisgsoren, SpamapS: I created a simplified initscript to reproduce the problem: http://pastebin.com/cdkgbtmu07:53
alkisgIndeed, any processes spawned to the background by that iniscript is forcibly killed after a few seconds, but I don't know what kills them.07:53
RAOFStevenK: Yeah.  dbus-sharp doesn't actually exist in Maverick, but it's a drop-in replacement for ndesk-dbus.  Try “sed -i s/dbus-sharp/ndesk-dbus/g MPRIS.csproj” and then xbuild again ;)07:54
StevenKRAOF: Based on the tracebacks, it seems it still wants dbus-sharp07:56
StevenKsteven@liquified:~/Desktop/MPRIS% grep -r dbus-sharp .07:56
StevenKBinary file ./bin/Debug/MPRIS.dll matches07:56
StevenK:-(07:56
RAOFOk.  pkg-config fail.  It needs to be ndesk-dbus-1.0 and ndesk-dbus-glib-1.0.07:58
RAOFMPRIS.csproj is just an awful xml file, it should be hand-editable.07:59
RAOFOr, I could fix it locally and throw it up for you.07:59
StevenKRAOF: The <Package> bits already say that, the <Reference> needs to change too?08:00
RAOFStevenK: Bah.  New do-plugin-mpris on cooperteam.  This should build and work for you :)08:04
pittiGood morning08:06
sorenalkisg: Try adding an S99 script that writes "the end" to the same file as that test script.08:06
sorenalkisg: ...and see if that actually markes the end of it.08:06
alkisgsoren: trying...08:06
alkisgok08:06
sorenalkisg: If so, I have a guess as to what's going on.08:06
RAOFHm.  Note to self: suspend, rather than shutdown, your machine so that the >1hr fsck.btrfs that happens each boot doesn't annoy you so much.08:08
StevenKRAOF: Do.Universe.Common.RunAction "Run" encountered an error in Perform: System.Exception: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.quodlibet was not provided by any .service files08:09
RAOFStevenK: Win!  It's built, installed, and is running!08:10
RAOFStevenK: Now... you've got the quodlibet mpris plugin installed, right? :)08:10
StevenKRAOF: I doubt it08:11
RAOFStevenK: Ah.  Well, install it and then the Do end should work!08:11
StevenKRAOF: Apparently, I did, it just doesn't turn up in Quod :-(08:12
RAOF:(08:12
RAOFDoes quodlibet appear on the bus?08:13
pitti+  * Added xfce4-indicator-plugin to desktop08:30
pittisuperm1: ^ that smells like a FFE? has this been discussed anywhere, and should get into beta-2? (would mean a rebuild)08:30
pittisuperm1: hm, mythbuntu-default-settings also introduces the dependency; isn't that a little redundant?08:31
alkisgsoren: In that file, I got: "start 4[Enter]start 2[Enter]stop 2[Enter]the end"08:51
sorenJust as I thought.08:52
alkisgI guess something kills all child processes of rcS initscripts at the end of that boot phase. But is this a correct behavior?08:52
dholbachgood morning08:55
sorenalkisg: I'm trying to work that out.08:58
sorenalkisg: Oh, hang on.. What's you script called?08:58
alkisgsoren: I put the names on the headers08:59
alkisgS33spawn-test -> ../init.d/spawn-test09:00
alkisgS99finish-test -> ../init.d/finish-test09:00
sorenAh, ok.09:00
alkisgsoren: here's the finish-test, if you need it: http://pastebin.com/XHCrgtxS09:01
sorenalkisg: I'd file a bug against upstart. I don't really know if it's a bug, but that's probably the best way to get the discussion going.09:09
sorenalkisg: For now, you can probably get out of it by using nohup.09:10
alkisgsoren: thank you for both suggestions09:10

Sarvattthere's no trace of the kernel module at all, jockey doesn't know about it and its not in lspci, there is a blacklist blocking nouveau installed in the package too that isn't getting used since he's using nouveau15:48
mdeslauractually...ProcModules.txt in the bug doesn't have nvidia loaded15:48

Keybukmdz: I think it would be useful, even if just to give a public airing18:43
mdzrickspencer3, I guess I was hoping for a more targeted list of bugs18:44
mdzI don't want to trawl through all of the bugs on compiz looking for which ones are unity-related18:44
rickspencer3mdz, well, compiz is tightly bound with Unity18:44
mdzand I'm quite certain there are unity-related bugs filed on packages other than unity and compiz18:44
mdzrickspencer3, yes, but compiz is also used in the classic desktop18:44
rickspencer3Unty doesn't crash that much, it's usually copiz18:44
rickspencer3*compiz18:45
rickspencer3mdz I'm trying to help here, but I'm not sure what other report we can run18:45
mdzrickspencer3, as I understand it, unity runs as a plugin to compiz, so it's a pretty blurry line18:45
rickspencer3we have incoming bugs in compiz and unity18:45
rickspencer3these get triaged and the ones that the team thinks are the biggest threats get moved onto the milestone list18:46
rickspencer3mdz, well, Unity may trigger compiz bigs that GNOME 2.3.x does not18:46
mdzrickspencer3, yes. those are the ones I want to know about18:47
mdzrickspencer3, https://launchpad.net/unity/+milestone/3.8.8 won't have any of those bugs18:47
rickspencer3why not?18:47
mdzor will it?18:47
mdzwell, because it's only upstream unity bugs18:48
mdzI assume that if the bug is in compiz code, it won't be filed on unity upstream18:48
mdzis that a wrong assumption?18:48
Sarvattmdeslaur: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/740126 is one that only happens in unity and not classic gnome with compiz18:49

Sarvattwhoops, sorry, mdz: ^^18:50
rickspencer3mdz well, I would expect that they would open a bug task on Unity so that they can track those bugs in the milestone18:51
rickspencer3mdz the issues with xorg that I know of are invariant to Unity18:51
mdzrickspencer3, Sarvatt's bug is a counterexample18:51
mdzspecific to unity, but not filed on unity upstream18:52
rickspencer3mdz, right18:52
mdzthere's a "unity" tag on it, is that a useful way to filter bugs?18:52
rickspencer3mdz could be, I haven't been deep in the bug workflow18:52
rickspencer3but there are only 9 bugs with that tag, it looks like18:53
ScottKrickspencer3: It's not a normal triaging practice to also open bug tasks against packages (e.g. unity) when the bug is triggered by using that package but is in a different package (e.g. compiz).18:53

seb128that doesn't cover the indicators but you probably don't count those for unity anyway I guess18:57
