MrCurious_gruemaster you said sound was working.. it seems to be crashing on me every boot00:17
=== zumbi is now known as Guest98374
GrueMasterMrCurious_: ???  Sound is working here on the latest daily.  Changes went in a couple of days ago.00:39
GrueMasterWhat is crashing?00:39
MrCurious_after a fresh install and first boot, it tries to send a crash report. have gotten it twice. first time it said it was sound related.01:26
MrCurious_second time i couldnt work out the coause01:26
MrCurious_gruemaster: i would place what i just said in the unreliable dept, as i dont remember it letter flr letter01:27
GrueMasterYou may have multiple crashes.  Look in /var/crash.01:28
MrCurious_gruemaster yes, 3, and none are sound (jockey, oem config remove, software center)02:24
MrCurious_is it ok?02:26
MrCurious_whoops02:26
infinityWell, none of that's "okay", per se, but none of it's sound.02:30
infinityDoes the oem-config-remove one have a backtrace about a D-Bus timeout?02:30
MrCurious_"is it ok" was to my wife about my cooking :D02:30
MrCurious_and it was...02:31
infinityAfter I spin dailies tonight, that should be worked around.  I'd say "fixed", but the fix won't land for oneiric.  But it shouldn't happen, I hope. :/02:31
MrCurious_it had a timeout at the end somethign didnt respond02:32
infinityYah, that's cause another process is running at the same time and eating your system alive.02:33
MrCurious_sounds like something to avoid02:33
infinityNeeds a deeper fix to make the timeout actually retry or not happen, but tonight's images should at least avoid the eating alive bit.02:34
MrCurious_this was last nights02:34
infinityYeah.  I mean "the ones that will be building over the next 8-12 hours"02:34
MrCurious_interesting.  if you set screen blanking to off or none it blanks in 1 or 2 minutes04:52
twbxset dpms force on ?05:01
MrCurious_i am sure there are workarounds, i was just noting it was a case of what you say isnt what you get05:25
brokencodesAny wakey wakes in here?05:57

ndecinfinity: hi06:36
ndecgfx packages should work. we have GST and video playback working now. and we need to finalize the packaging steps and push06:37
infinityndec: Kay.  And I assume we'll get the metapackage back?06:47
infinityndec: Since we have a shiny desktop icon to install it and everything. :)06:47

ogra_infinity, there should also be a special case of libreoffice in the seeds, not only banshee08:06
=== zumbi is now known as Guest12955
ogra_(it has no negated subarch entry, instead it specifies the subarches to install on (which is a bit silly i think)08:08
ogra_i wonder if we should actually make that [!armel] instead, just for consistency08:08
=== vila_at_dentist is now known as vila
ndecinfinity: yes of course! we are putting the real packages first to test them. then we will push the meta pkgs08:21
ogra_ndec, well, the earlier the better, we're in RC now and havent had a chance to test if the PPA enablich actually works08:22
ogra_even a meat without deps would help testing atm08:22
ogra_*meta08:22
ogra_heh08:22
ndecogra_: let me do that now08:22
ogra_thanks :)08:23
ndecogra_: pushed. shouldn't take too long to build ;-)08:44
ndeclet me know how it goes08:45
infinityndec: \o/08:45
ndecthis is not the most difficult package we have to manage ;-008:45
* ogra_ hugs ndec 08:45
infinityndec: Nope, but while you can fix your PPA post-release, we can't fix our images, so we need to make sure that installing the meta works vaguely as expected.08:46
ogra_i'll test after the call today08:46
infinityndec: So, thanks. :)08:46
infinityogra_: Images won't be done building for another hour or two.08:46
ndecabsolutely08:46
ogra_infinity, thats fine, 10:46 here :) call is in the afternoon08:46
* infinity glances at the clock.08:47
ogra_:)08:47
ogra_bde time, eh ?08:47
infinityI think I need to go find some niccotine to calm my nerves and have a nap.08:47
ogra_*bed even08:47
ogra_have some valerian with the ciggy08:47
ogra_;)08:47
infinityI have none.08:47
infinityNot sure the gas station sells it.08:47
infinityAlmost positive they don't.08:47
infinityBut gin will work, right?08:48
infinityIt's basically the same thing.08:48
ogra_sure, but wont macke your cats happy :)08:48
ogra_*make08:48
infinityMy cats don't need any more happy.  If you ask me, they need some disappointment in their lives.08:48
ogra_lol08:48
infinityTails always up, always expecting the best from life.  Spoiled brats.08:49
ogra_then probably go for melatonin instead of valerian08:49
infinityTime to take them back to the dealer and trade them in for kittens anyway.08:50
infinityWho wants 3-year-old used cats?08:50
ndecinfinity: where are you based?08:50
infinityndec: Calgary, AB, Canada.08:50
ogra_heh08:50
ndecouch...08:50
ogra_why ouch ?08:50
ndecit's like 3AM?08:50
infinityYup.08:50
ogra_(apart from the weather)08:50
infinityIt's early!08:50
infinityI only slept about 3 hours last night.08:51
ogra_good morning then :)08:51
infinityTonight's going to be at least 4!08:51
infinityProgress.08:51
ogra_so stop talking about sleeping now, DO IT !08:51
infinityI should start making soap and beating myself up.08:51
infinityUnfortunately, Helena Bonham Carter doesn't return my phone calls.08:51
ogra_geez, evil !08:52
infinityYeah, she's a bit cruel.08:52
ogra_did she promise to ?08:52
infinityNot in so many words.08:52
infinityBut I saw the look in her eye as they dragged me away.08:52
infinityIt was love.08:52
ogra_tell her you will start dating scarlett johanssen if she doesnt answer08:52
ogra_envy is a good motivator ;)08:53
* infinity goes shopping.08:53
infinityndec: Thanks again.  You gave me something to test tomorrow.08:53
infinity(And potentially cry over when software-center crashes trying to do something simple)08:54
ogra_well, we'll corner mvo if it doesnt work08:54

jondoHi to all. I am currently trying to boot my  BeagleBoard-xM rev C with yesterday's daily oneiric-preinstalled-desktop-armel+omap.img.gz09:50
jondoand now I am stuck at the language selection dialog and neither USB keyboard nor mouse do work.09:54
jondoAlso, there is no LAN LED activity. Can it be that my power supply is too weak? I am currently switchable power supply that says '12 VA', set to 5 V.10:07

jondoogra_, have you got my recent mail about my BeagleBoard problems?12:06
ogra_jondo, did you try to start over ?12:06
ogra_(just reboot wiht the SD inserted)12:06
jondoNot yet. I just powered it off. I'm gonna try this now. You mean ctrl-alt-del?12:10
ogra_as you like12:11
ogra_you can just pull the power otherwise12:11
jondoI'm in the language dialog again, and ctrl-alt-del does not work. Powering off and on also does not help: the language dialog reappears, and neither mouse nor keyboard work.12:13
ogra_very strange, since it does for everyone else12:13
ogra_sounds a bit like your USB isnt initialized or failing due to not enough power12:14
ogra_do you by chnace have a powered hub you could try ?12:14
xranbyjondo: when i used the beagle i allways had to attach keyboard and mouse to a selfpowered usb hub12:15
jondoI am currently using a 5V / 2A power supply. I'll search the office for a hub. And I have also got a second Beagleboard, that is not unwrapped yet.12:16
ogra_well, 2A should *theoretically* be sufficient12:18
ogra_(i use a 4A here though)12:18
brandinimorning12:25
jondoWith a powered USB hub, still no keyboard and mouse :(12:34
jondoBut how can there be not enough power with Ubuntu, when keyboard, mouse and LAN work fine with Angstrom Linux?12:35
jondo(As noted in the mail, the green and yellow LAN socket LEDs do not light up with Ubuntu.)12:37
brandinithen your usb is not being attached properly12:40
brandiniLAN socket it over usb12:40
brandinilook at your dmesg for "not configured" or some such12:40
jondoOk, I'll look at dmesg. You mean, the LAN socket is connected over usb?12:43
brandiniyes12:49
brandinithe lan device is usb->ethernet12:49
jondoBTW, my second BeagleBoard shows the same symptoms.13:24
jondoI'll continue testing on Monday. Bye!13:27
brandinisounds like software IMO13:28

brandiniso still no omap4-extras for daily?15:08
ogra_brandini, should be there, testing would be appreciated15:10
brandinihow are we supposed to know what bugs are in daily without that stuff?15:10
brandiniok, I'm running server and I'm not sure how to add the extras repo?15:10
ogra_heh, yeah, that doesnt get us the test result we look for15:11

brandiniI think I tried that, but here I go again!15:14
xranbyjanimo: GrueMaster: the daily 111007 imx5 image works like a charm for me now...   network routes work during oem-config and gui feels more responsive!     still some waiting between that the oem-setup window dissapears to and the gui restarts to show lightdm login. aptd are it are still doing some configuration during the wait...15:14
ogra_lightdm is a snail15:14
ogra_(and i suspect it doesnt actually match its name ... i think its far from being actually light)15:15
brandiniogra_: thanks, great tip :)15:19
ogra_:)15:19
xranbyogra_: indeed.. everything went snail after lightdm login15:22
xranbyon the imx5315:22
xranbyogra_: workaround by installing gdm?15:22
ogra_nah15:22
xranbyi will check if using gdm changes anything15:22
ogra_i doubt that, gdm might not have light in its name, but its not lighter :)15:23
ogra_i would also assume its rather soemthing like metacitys composite that draws the power15:23
xranbyogra_: the snail feeling are really.. odd   i mean the pointer flies and updates so fast like its on fire... while any event you send to the gui takes about 7sec to be recieved15:24
ogra_ouch15:25
xranbyandwhen the 7 seconds pass a blimp of snappyness occours  gui gets instantly updated and then it takes some seconds for next event to get processed15:25
ogra_the image is a tech preview so, while thats not nice, i dont think we will change anything on it for oneiric15:25
xranbyok15:25
ogra_not sure how mature the kernel is yet etc15:26
xranbyso to sum it up.. everything looks fast on the paper but the user experience are bleeding15:27
xranbynetwork traffic ok15:27
xranbyio traffic ok15:27
xranbyetc15:27
xranbyconsole works ok15:27
ogra_well, i would blame the framebuffer driver then15:28
xranbykind of odd since it felt reasonable fast during oem-config15:29
xranbyoh well15:29
xranbyat least it work15:29
xranbyfor hosting buildd's15:29
xranbyand arm server testing15:29
janimoxranby, good to know, probably the swap enablement fixed it. Thanks for the feedback!15:39
brandiniso now that I've got omap4-extras I dunno what to do with them15:47
GrueMasterUm, test them?  Just a suggestion.  :P15:49
brandini:)15:50
brandiniwell the one thing I was most concerned about that worked on 10.10 was the go/src/pkg/time test that is still failing :(15:50
=== _MrCurious is now known as MrCurious_
xranbyjanimo: the main observation that i do on the imx53 are that redrawing the gui eats cpu time.. with unity2d idle running gnome-system-monitor   then  gnome-system-monitor eats 30-80% of cpu time when it are updating the gui16:10
xranbyogra_: so yeah ^ might be some work needed on the framebuffer driver16:11
xranbysomeone know how to check how fast the Xorg screen redraw itself?16:12
ogra_probably the guys in #ubuntu-x16:12
xranbyi have now flooded their channel16:18
xranbyunfortunally noone seems around16:18

saliakanyone had luck with the preinstalled image for Natty on the beagleBoardXM?  I installed it and it boots,etc but doesn't find the /dev/usb0 NIC16:35
saliakI can boot the test angstrom image and everything works fine.  not sure what else I need to do in ubuntu, any ideas?16:35
GrueMastersaliak: Which rev beagleXM?16:36
GrueMasterAnd what does ifconfig report?16:36
saliakrev C16:41
saliakifconfig only reports lo16:42
saliakit seems like something is missing,which is weird since it's the prebuilt headless image16:42

fiveneed help regarding dual display on pandaboard with ubuntu 11.0417:24
fiveany suggestion17:25
fivei am not able to get this done from couple of days17:25
fiveany one with any suggestions17:27
GrueMastersaliak: Sorry, I was called away for a bit.  Can you try the latest daily Oneiric?  http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/daily-preinstalled/current17:28
saliaknp, yeah, i'll check that out now17:29
GrueMasterfive: I haven't tested this out (yet).  I think it requires the closed drivers for video, but they were not available for Natty.17:29
saliakis there a patch for revC like there was for natty?17:29
GrueMastersaliak: It "should" just work.17:32
GrueMasterThe natty patch was due to hw release after Natty freeze.17:32
fivecan u please tell me which OS on pandaboard will support dual monitors17:32
GrueMasterfive: We only deal with Ubuntu-arm here.  You could try our latest, which is due to release next week.  Get it at http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-preinstalled/current.  Also, You may want to ask in #pandaboard.17:34
fivethanks GrueMaster17:35
saliakGrueMaster: will those images run headless?17:42
GrueMasterThe server image is essentially the headless image with additional packages, yes.17:43
saliakGrueMaster : just to make sure i'm not making a stupid mistake, beagle board is omap3, right?17:50
GrueMastersaliak: Yes.17:51
GrueMasterSo pull the oneiric-preinstalled-server-armel+omap.img.gz file17:51

GrueMasterErm, oops.  Ubiquity Slideshow has a slide on Banshee, which we replaced at the last minute because it fails on arm.  Doh!21:13
GrueMasterinfinity: ^^^21:13
infinityNot much we can do about that.  We're not forking the slideshow. :/21:16
GrueMasterI know.  Just found it kind of amusing.21:17
infinityWon't disagree with that. :)21:18
GrueMasterI'll refrain from filing a bug.21:18
GrueMasterWill add it to the arm release notes wiki though.21:18
DavieyGrueMaster: Do you have a seperate release notes regarding ARM page?21:20
GrueMasterI do for previous releases.  Haven't started an Oneiric one.  But it usually is for stuff specific to the arm images.  Any i386/amd64 issues are usually mirrored on arm so I consider them redundant.21:22
DavieyGrueMaster: sure.. when you have it, i'd like to see arm server things. Can you ping me pls?21:22
GrueMastersigh.  oem-config-remove appears to have crashed on mx5.21:23
GrueMasterDaviey: sure thing, although the release notes will be specific to iso testing.  Everything else isn't really automated yet.21:23
DavieyGrueMaster: After next week, I want to kick of a discussion regarding testing - i need you to be a key part of it :)21:26
Daviey(all flavours, shared methodology)21:26
GrueMasterSure.  I will also be attending the testing BoF at UDS.21:27
GrueMasterinfinity: any ideas on how to get some info on why oem-config is respawning on mx5?  It hasn't happened (yet) on any other platform.  Still need to test beaglexm.21:31
DavieyGrueMaster: I want to brainstorm before UDS TBH21:32
infinityGrueMaster: Other than pulling the card for logs, I don't have any remote debugging ideas right now.21:32
GrueMasterDaviey: No problem.21:32
infinityGrueMaster: But I suspect the whole thing is just a bit racy, and hardware speed (and dumb luck) triggers the problems. :/21:33
R_Nevoem-config, that's the thing that asks for language and such?21:33
infinityAnd username and stuff, yes.21:34
GrueMasterinfinity: It appears that it is crashing when launching oem-config-remove-gtk.  No other explaination.  I do have an odd error in oem-config.log, but that is related to keymaps.21:34
infinitySomething, somewhere, must say something. :/21:34
R_Nevcool, thought it was only me; stopped after the fourth one last night21:34
GrueMasterBut that appears on startup.21:35
GrueMasterNeed to smack the installer team into adding meaningful log messages on fail.21:35
infinityUnless oem-config-wrapper doesn't log anywhere...21:35
infinityBalls.21:37
infinityAnd it really doesn't.21:37
GrueMasterAs I said...21:37
GrueMasterexcellent.21:37
infinityMaybe /var/log/installer/dm ?21:37
infinityBut I'm not sure if output from oem-config-wrapper will actually get caught by the DM.21:38
infinityProbably not.21:38
GrueMasterNo, dm looks (almost) like an Xorg log.21:40
GrueMasterI have scoured /var/log for any semblence of sanity.  None found.21:42
GrueMasterI can release note it.  It will be a big annoyance, but what else can you do?21:42
infinityI suspect with enough tries and the right moon phase, it'll work.21:43
saliakGrueMaster: so I used the Oneiric image and have the same issue.  there's no /dev/usb021:43
saliakGrueMaster: if i boot off the test sd card with the Angstrom image, the network hardware works fine21:43
GrueMasterR_Nev: The workaround (for now) is to go to a text console when oem-config respawns, log in and run "sudo oem-config-remove" then reboot.21:44
GrueMastersaliak: Try unplugging the network cable, then plugging it back in.  I have been seeing this issue for a while and reported it upstream.21:45
GrueMasterThought it was just my hardware.21:45
infinityThe screen just blanked on my Panda in the middle of the install...21:45
GrueMastersaliak: Wait a few seconds before plugging back in.21:45
GrueMasterinfinity: Try switching to console 1 then back.21:46
infinityNada.21:46
infinityThis is disconcerting.21:46
* infinity re-flashes the card and goes for another try.21:46
saliakGrueMaster: nada here as well.21:46
GrueMasterinfinity: I was going to ask if you still had blinken lights.21:47
* GrueMaster can see a lot of release note editing in his future.21:47
infinityYeahp.21:47
infinityThere seemed to be plenty of SD activity.21:47
infinityAnd the heartbeat.21:47
saliakGrueMaster: i did everything over the serial port.  any chance it needs a keyboard/monitor during some setup stage for something that has to do with the network?21:48
GrueMastersaliak: Not on the headless.  Do you have link lights on the port?21:48
saliakGrueMaster : no link lights.  that's the weird thing, it's like the hardware is disabled21:48
saliakGrueMaster : hrm, during boot it says "unbable to enumerage usb device on port 2"21:49
saliakGrueMaster : I wonder if that's the NIC..21:49
infinitylsusb?21:50
GrueMastersaliak: unplug the network cable, wait a few seconds and plug it in.  That seems to make mine work again.21:50
saliakGrueMaster: shoot, need to run.  will be back on later to continue.. thanks for everyone's help21:50
GrueMasterHow in the he!! can I have obsolete packages?  I thought the pool was frozen?  And why would libpciaccess0 matter for reporting a bug on plymouthd?21:53
GrueMasteron a platform without PCI?21:54
infinityGrueMaster: Because, thanks to the plymouth/drm nonsense that I didn't have time to try to fix, libpciaccess0 is actually a plymouth dep. :/21:57
GrueMasterGrrrr.22:01
GrueMasterinfinity: I am showing 30 upgraded packages in oneiric, with -security and -updates disabled.  Tell me this isn't the final image.22:05
infinityGrueMaster: No, it's not.22:05
infinityGrueMaster: It's the image we want some testing against before we build real RCs Sunday night.22:05
GrueMasterok.22:06
infinity(And with any luck, those will be final, but like that ever happens)22:06
GrueMasterI'll look at the plymouthd crash data and see if it is anything to be concerned about.22:06
infinityNCommander: software-center traceback and failure to find the package perfectly reproducible on amd64, BTW.  Just cp jasper-initramfs/ppa/ti-omap4* /usr/share/app-install/channels/ and then xdg-open jasper-initramfs/ppa/ti-omap4-ppa.desktop23:06
